THE PROFESSIONAL WORLD. $1.00 Per Year in Advance. Schools and Teachers. The second Month of school has closed. Each teacher should reflect to see if he has accomplished all that has been possible for him to accomplish, if not, why not? Prof. J. W. Damel, of Jefferson City, Mo., is in the city attending the Inter National Christian Convention. He was a graduate from Hiram College (Ohio) in the class of 1887. He participated in the banquet given by Judge Slabaugh and other "Hiramites" of the alumni association who were attending the convention--The Omaha Enterprise. It is reported that Kansas City is to have a new high school. The establishing of night schools in St. Louis is quite a commendable act and these schools should be largely attended. If the proper interest is manifested, there will doubtless be similar schools established in the smaller towns of the State. The proposed Farmer's Conference to be heldat Lincoln Institute is at least a move in the right direction, if proper interest could be manifested, probably the young negro men would cease to leave the farms and go to the cities with only hopes of securing positions as boot-blacks or doing drudgery work around the hotels. President Shelton H. French of the Missouri State Teacher's Association has issued a very strong letter to the teachers of the state reminding them of the meeting of the association in St. Louis during the holidays.

It is easy to be pleasant When life flows by like a song, But the man worth while is the one who will smile When everything goes wrong. For the test of the heart is trouble, And it always comes with the years, And the smile that is worth the praises of earth Is the smile that shines through tears. tears. It is easy enough to be prudent When nothing tempts you to stray, When without or within no voice of sin is luring your soul away. But it's only a negative virtue Until it is tried by fire, And the life that thou sheds And the life that is worth the honor of earth or of earth Is the one that resists desire. By the cynic, the sad, the fallen, Who had no strength for the strife, The world's highway is cumbered today. But the virtue that conquers passion, And the sorrow that hides in a smile— It is these that are worth the homage of earth For we find them but once in a while. —ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.

TO CELEBRATE MITCHELL DAY General Suspension of Labor in the Coal Fields—Output of Coal is Increasing. Wilkesbarre, Pa., Oct. 29.—In order that Mitchell day may be properly observed tomorrow, there will be a general suspension of mining. Operators would rather the men would work, but under the circumstances they are helpless in the matter. The superintendents of many collieries were notified today that employees would not report for work tomorrow. Many visitors are arriving tonight to witness the demonstration in this city. There will be a street parade and a mass meeting in nearly all the towns in the coal region, but, owing to the presence of Mitchell in Wilkesbarre, it is expected the principal demonstration will be held there. "Mitchell day" is the anniversary of the close of the last big strike, Oct. 29, 1900. The owners then granted a 10 per cent increase of wages and other concessions. As in the present instance Mitchell then conducted the strike for the miners. Output of Coal. Scranton, Pa., Oct. 29—Official figures from five big companies having main offices in Scranton show that 90 per cent of their collieries are in operation and the output is now more than three-quarters of what it is nominally. Much complaint was heard at the offices of the companies concerning the idleness that will ensue tomorrow by reason of the observance of Mitchell day. The companies have received no notice from the men that they will not work tomorrow other than the announcements of the papers of parade arrangements. Each company has instructed its superintendents to blow the whistles as usual and work the mines if possible. It is almost a certainty the whistles will bring no responses, as every mining center in the valley has arranged for a Mitchell day celebration. DEFEAT OF REVOLUTIONISTS. Two Generals and 1,300 Men Surrender to Government Forces After a Sanguinary Battle. Panama, Oct. 29.—The revolutionary forces under General Uribe-Uribe, defeated Oct. 14th at La Cienaga, retreated to Rio Frio and took up positions there. General Marjarranes, with 2,000 men, proceeded against the rebels from La Cienaga and engaged the enemy two days ago. The government's general succeeded in surrounding the rebels and forcing them to surrender. General Castillo was with General Uribe-Uribe. Details of the engagement are lacking, but heavy casualties on both sides are reported. The surrender of General Uribe-Uribe is said to complete pacification of the departments of Magdalena and Bolivar. The revolutionists now occupy the Isthmus only. It is stated that the rebels surrendered ten cannon, 2,500 rifles and 300,000 rounds of ammunition. General Uribe-Uribe is also a prisoner. In the fight Oct. 14th at La Cienaga the revolutionary forces consisted of 1,300 men. Colon, Oct. 28.—The government gunboat General Pinzon arrived this afternoon from Savanilla. She was especially sent from that port by the governor of Bolivar to bring news of the defeat of the revolutionists under General Uribe-Uribe and Castillo at Rio Frio. Both generals were made prisoners. There is much rejoicing, especially over the capture of General Uribe-Uribe. PROGRESS OF MOLINEUX CASE. Efforts to Introduce Evidence of Two Important Witnesses Who Testified at the First Trial. New York, Oct. 29.—Interest in the Molineux trial centered today in the efforts of the prosecution to introduce evidence given at the first trial by two important witnesses now in New Jersey and beyond the jurisdiction of the court. The witnesses are Mamie Melando, a girl formerly employed by Molineux, who testified he used the three-crescent note paper that has figured so prominently in the trial, and Joseph Farrell, a Newark detective, who testified to having seen Molineux the afternoon after the silver bottle-holder was bought. Great importance is attached to Judge Lambert's decision relative to the admissibility of this testimony, which will be rendered tomorrow. Handwriting experts continued today to testify as to the identity of the writing on the poison package addressed to Cornish and the Barnett letters with that of Molineux. MINNESOTA PIONEER DEAD. Man Who Had the First Mail Contract Between St. Paul and Sioux City in 1856 Passes Away Mankato, Minn., Oct. 20.—George H. Marsh, a well known pioneer, died today, aged 69. e was awarded the first mail contract between St. Paul and Sioux City in 1856; was at Deadwood Falls in 1862 when the Indian outbreak occurred and brought the first news of the bloody massacre to Mankato. WAR MADE ON LAND GRABBERS Government Will Prosecute Persons Who Hold Public Lands on Perjured Affidavits. Duluth, Minn., Oct. 28.—Government inspectors have discovered many persons holding lands doing so upon perjured affidavits. Steps will be taken ta annul entries, recover the land and prosecute the holders for perjury.

THOUSANDS ARE DYING. EPIDEMIC OF MEASLES ON THE KAMSCHATKA PENINSULA. Ten Thousand Persons Are Dead on Peninsula in Russia—Whole Population of Some Villages Almost Wiped Out by Scourge—Irish Members of British House of Commons Cease Troubling—Foreign News. London, Oct. 29.—The St. Petersburg correspondent of the Mail cables there is an epidemic of measles on the Kanschat peninsula. Ten thousand persons have died and the population of some villages are nearly wiped out. Irish Take a Best. London, Oct. 29—Having gained their end in forcing discussion of coercion, the Nationalist members of the commons appear to have abandoned any further parliamentary campaign pending the return of John Redmond, Irish leader, from the United States. A large number of Irish members left London today for Ireland. All Irish questions and motions have been suddenly dropped and the government left to do as it pleases without molestation. Nationalist members of the commons are jubilant over what they claim is Balfour's "climb-down" from his refusal to grant a day to discuss the proclamation of the crimes act. Blocking motions to prevent such discussion were set up last week by unionists, but, through government influences these motions were withdrawn, thus permitting O'Brien's motion last night, according to the Standard this morning, this arrangement was the result of a friendly understanding between the government and the Irish party. Whether this is correct or not it is quite apparent the government has arrived at the conclusion it would be a saving of time to permit Irish debate. The Times admits the blocking motions were removed by government influence, and claims this concession by Balfour is a very different thing from acceding to the Irishmen's "demand" for a day to discuss coercion. STRATTON ADMINISTRATORS. New Men Appointed by Judge of the County Court—Large Bond Signed by Securities Companies. Colorado Springs, Col., Oct. 29.—Tonight Judge Orr of the county court appointed Tyson S. Dines, Dr. D. D. Rice and A. G. Sharp as administrators of the estate of the late W. S. Stratton. This action was taken in accordance with a decision of the district court today removing those originally named by Judge Orr. Dines and Rice were named as the executors of the estate by Stratton in his will. Sharp is cashier of the Exchange National bank. The bond of the new executors for $8,000,000 was signed by surety companies. YATES HAS TYPHOID FEVER. Governor's Physician Admits as Much and Has Not Been Able to Check Fever from Which He Suffers Chicago, Oct. 29. — A Record-Herald's Springfield special says: Governor Yates is suffering with typhoid fever. This fact was practically admitted tonight by Dr. Taylor, his physician. It will be a day or two before an accurate diagnosis of the case can be made, but the physician has found symptoms of the disease, and thus far has not been able to check the fever with which the patient is suffering.

J. BRYAN WAS PUT ON ICE. On Account or Collision With Freight His Party Had to Continue Their Journey in Refrigerator Car Cripple Creek, Col., Oct. 29.—Bryan's special crashed into the caboose of a freight at Arena today.

There is one instance of Count Hilarion Chaky, a wealthy resident of Pressburg, who desired to obtain a dignity which requires a lineal descent from sixteen noble ancestors, and Mueller undertook to furnish them. In another case, in order to ennoble a member of the reichstalk, Dr. Otto Mital, Mueller forged a rescript of Emperor Leopold dated 1697. Mueller's operations covered a period of ten years.

Chicago, Oct. 27.—Demands for an increase of about 20 per cent in wages for all switchmen in the Chicago district have been presented to the various railroad companies. The results have been notified that an answer is expected by next Friday. The movement is being made by the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, and affects about 8,000 men in Chicago directly, but indicating it sets the rate for all switchmen in the Western part of the country. ARE AMENABLE TO CIVIL LAW. United States Court of Appeals Decides Soldiers Are Amenable to Courts for Civil Offenses. Philadelphia, Oct. 28.—Advocates of more than usual interest was rendered in the United States court of appeals today when it was decided that soldiers of the United States army are amenable to civil courts for offenses other than those committed solely in violation of army rules. The decision was in the case of Lieut. Neall, a Presidio officer convicted of forgery in 1898 before a jury and sentenced to serve two years in prison. Neall's attorneys appealed, claiming that, as Neall and all parties concerned were of the army, Neall's trial should have been a courtmartial under the articles of war. After an exhaustive argument, dealing with the constitution's utterances on the subject, the court of appeals denied the petition for reversal and upholds completely the judgment of the lower court. Guardsman Acquitted. Anoka, Minn., Oct. 27.—Percy Walton of Minneapolis, the national guardman charged with manslaughter, was acquitted today. Walton, with his company, was at practice on a rifle range and fired at what he supposed was a piece of white paper near the target. His bullet struck a boy, who was instantly killed. CUBA REJECTS PROPOSITION. Proposed Treaty With United States Returned to Washington With a Counter-Proposition. Havana, Oct. 28.—The Associated Press learns from official sources that the proposed treaty between the United States and Cuba was returned to Washington last Saturday. With the treaty was sent a counter-proposition from Cuba, the nature of which is not known, but it is understood President Palma, in a letter sent with the treaty, says the acceptance of the proposition made by the United States would be ruinous to Cuba, as it would result in a large reduction of the customs revenue of the island. ROCK INSCRIPTIONS. Found in Canaan and May Throw Light on Biblical Questions A discovery which is likely to have far-reaching influence in settling disputed Biblical questions is announced to archaeologists by Mrs. Ghosn-ei-Howie, late of Toronto, now of Mount Lebanon, Syria. While traveling on the eastern slope of Lebanon Mrs. Howie's attention was attracted by two large bowlers. The first of these, which was found high up in the mountain, has sculptured upon it the figures of a bull, a cow and a lion. This grouping of animal forms is said to point to a Hittite hand. The other sculpture, which was some miles down the mountain in a gorge, very near the edge of the rich, fertile plain of Coele-Syria, is a representation of a female armed with a sword and a spear. At first it was thought that this figure represented the queen of the desert, Zenobia of Tadmir, in the wilderness, but further study leads Mrs. Howie to suppose that this is no other than the goddess of Ashruta, Mistress of the Plain, wife of Amurru, Lord of the Mountains, referred to in the Tellel-Amarura letters discovered 15 years ago in Egypt. The location of these sculptures, representing the god Amurru (symbolized by the female) up among the mountains, and the female (down the edge of the plain) agrees well with the inscribed inscriptions which tell us that he is "lord of the mountains" and she "mistress of the plain" or "wilderness." How many thousands of human beings have in the past and forgotten centuries bowed the knee to this Baal may only be conjectured, but this much is plain, that these two sculptures belong to the class condemned in the first verse of the 26th chapter of Leviticus, "image of stone," "figured stone," "stone of picture," or, as my Arabic version has it, "hajaran messoweran"—that is, a stone on which likenesses are traced. If scientists should confirm Mrs. Howle's later views as to the identity and age of these sculptures, then destructive criticism which ascribes to Leviticus a date later than the days of Hezekiah and Josiah will have a fresh and a rock-hard difficulty to get over, in view of the fast that Hezekiah and Josiah destroyed all such "figured stones" or stones on which likenesses are sculptured within their kingdom.—Philadelphia Ledger. HELPED EVERYBODY Gainesville, Tex., Oct. 27th—Mrs. L. E. Burton, formerly of Eureka, Kansas, has been at 507 Gladstone Street, this city for some time. While here Mrs. Burton has been the means of doing much good by introducing to her sick friends, a remedy which it seems is very popular in Kansas but which has not been very much heard of in this neighborhood. It is called Dodd's Kidney Pills and in every case where it has been used it has produced wonderful results. Mrs. Burton has good reason to speak well of Dodd's Kidney Pills for they have done much for her and her family. She says: "I must tell everybody what Dodd's Kidney Pills have done for me and for as many of my friends as have used them. "I had a very bad case of Kidney Trouble for which I had been doctoring for a long time without benefit. I saw Dodd's Kidney Pills recommended. I tried them and was completely cured. My mother and my brother were ill and they took them and were soon well again. "Dodd's Kidney Pills have done much for us."

Notwithstanding the partial failure of the Kansas wheat crop this year, a larger area than ever is being planted this fall for next summer's harvest. They still believe in wheat rather than corn out that way, and the present planting proceeds under more favorable conditions than known in recent years, the state being thoroughly soaked by three months of unusual rainfall. The area now being given over to wheat is estimated to be 10 per cent larger than that planted a year ago, when it was larger than ever before.—Springfield, Mass., Republican.

Unusual rains have damaged the buf- falo grass on the ranges and prevented it from curing for winter feed of the stock, As a general rule it may be said that any soil whereon grows the shellbark hickory and the white oak is good for the apple orchard. Wherever the winters are long and cold it is always safer to lay the resp- berries and grapes down in the fall and cover them with earth. The cold summer which matured the apple crop in the best shape possible made it hard for the melon and corn crops to pull through at all. It takes a woman to have pity for a hungry man who won't work, and be- cause women do this is largely why we have this breed of parasites with us. The West has a big fight on hand to keep down the prairie dog, while the East has almost as much’ trouble to keep the dogs of elvilization within de- cent limittaions. The prolific crops of the year are but little affecting prices, and it goes with- out saying that the farmers of the country have another very prosperous ‘year before them. ‘When the cornfield has to brave a May frost, it will have little to fear from a September freeze, and it is al- ways better for it to have the spring frost than the fall one.

We noticed the other day a small oy not over twelve years old driving four big grade Percheron horses on 4 gang plow and turning over the soil at ‘the rate of five acres a day.

So much depends upon the char- acter of the subsoil, the season of the year when the plowing is done, the crop to be planted and the previous working of the field. Deep plowing in ‘the spring on most soils is a positive damage instead of a benefit and almost Tuinous if the crop consists of any of the cereals. If we could start the plow in the stubble fleld early in August, we would set it down as deep as three horses could pull it and only then. There is more chance for the exercise of good judgment in this matter than most men think. | Progress on the Farm. | ‘There is no progress being made in any line which is more noticeable than ‘that being made in agriculture. The old slipshod, hit, and go miss, back breaking type of farming is rapidly giving way before the newer and bet- ter way of doing things. There is a ‘lemand for scientific information on soils crops, breeding, feeding, an awakening to the value of the improved breeds of stock of all kinds, a remark- able interest in the farm institute work and a growing appreciation of the fact ‘that agriculture offers as wide a fleld and as rich returns for a man with ‘brains and education as any of the so-called professions. Invention has robbed the farm of most of its piitiful firudgery and made it possible to do ‘farm work with dispatch, economy and ‘pleasure. We Would Keep the Farm He was a retired farmer, and when we talked with him the other day he was trying to solve the problem of whether he had better accept an offer of $50 per acre for his 160-aere farm or keep it. He sald the farm would bring him in a cash rent of $550, out of which be had to pay taxes, $60; insur- ance, $10; and a repair’ account of about $60 per year, leaving him a net income of $420, or 2. 9 per cent per an- num upon $14,400. If he sold the place and put the money at interest, he would have difficulty in getting it into a safe 5 per cent security; but, assum~ ing that he was able to do this, it would figure this way: His interest in- come would be $720. As he lived in a country town where school and munici- pal taxes were heavy, the tax rate being 6 per cent on one-fourth of the actual valuation of property assessed, he would have $216 to pay as taxes, which deducted from his interest in- come would leave him $504 net. While this showing is in favor of selling the farm, there should not be overlooked the risk taken in investing the money and the chance that part of the time his capital might not be in use. He conld easily Increase the income from the farm by getting the right man to work it on shares and keeping good stock from $550 to nearly $1,000. But even if he could not do this we would still hang on to the farm, for this sort of an investment 1s absolutely safe, ‘va have Sua & Wlase. ‘We have always thought that if the {deal location for a home could be cho- sen in this country, it would be some valley farm or ranch in northern Calf- fornia or southern Oregon, where the rainfall would be ample to mature crops, where the winter would be a Jong drawn out, mild and beautiful fall, where fruits and flowers of the rare and tender sorts would find un- hampered development, where nature would be kind and reliable, not given to cranky fits of storm, cycione, light- ning and blizzard; wiere the ‘choice foods of the sea woull be easily ob- talnable, with trout in the valley stream, pheasants in the clearings of the fonkhitis and a deer to be had ip on the mountains: a place not too far from ‘the mighty Pacifle where one could sometimes gaze on the ocean's calm or its fury; not fer from some ever snow crowned mountain yeals, talking. from valley, mountain and ccean those tn- spirsvions always denied to the dweller on the level plain countries.

This seed has most of the fattening properties of corn, and the stockmen of that country are find- ing out that in millet thes have a val- uable food to finish off their cattle as first class beef, It is fed as a meal combined with barley or oats. ‘Those handsomely labeled cans ot “potted chicken” which are in favor for high toned society luncheons and pienic parties are quite likely to be the only evidence of a farm tragedy where @ nice little day old calf was by the hand of science, aided by fraud, changed from a prospective head of the herd into boiled rooster. Managed Just right it would be hard to detect the fraud, In order to keep the corn of a large area of the corn country this year it Will be absolutely necessary to put the grain in narrow well ventllated cribs. ‘The old cribs ten feet wide or even eight should be split lengthwise by a four inch partition and air space, An- other thing, the soft ears should be Separated a8 far as possible from the Sound ones at the time of husking the | crop. In the matter of corn there is a great deal of importance in properly adapt- ing varieties to climate and latitude. ‘We lately saw samples of White Dent corn raised in central Minnesota which ‘was better matured than the same sort of corn raised 400 miles farther south. ‘The northern grown corn was not so large as that grown south, but plenty big enough to make it a very profitable crop to raise. ‘Hare Meat Scare, We have not noted any recent sales of Belgian hares of a rich rufous color and of regal lineage of $250 each, neither do we note that hare meat has come into any general use either among the epicures or the common people; in fact, it would be very difi- cult to get an order filled for roast hare at any restaurant in the country, The scheme to thus supply the poor people with meat was a failure, and this class will have to depend upon salt pork, soup bones and liver ag heretofore, ‘Then we have an idea that even if hare meat had been made plentiful and cheap the poor, like the Israelites of old, wou have soon gagged on their rations, as did the Hebrews on their quail and manna, Comvensations.

Moreover, the bishop cracks many a joke with the artisans, who, in turn, relate to the head of the diocese their favorite yarns, and often at his request instruct him in the knacks of their various trades, One stonecutter asserts that quite re- cently he shared his midday meal of ham sandwiches with the bishop, who seemed to relish the repast, eaten from a block of granite. “Yes, he's a pretty democratic sort of man, is the bishop,”” said this stonecutter, “and the way he asks us questions and pleks up knowl- edge of the stone dressing business is a caution, I do believe, if he had to, he could dress a stone pretty well the firat time he tried it.” The mew of a cat saved a family from death by suffocation in Worcester, Mass., and hereafter the cast can prac- tice thelr nocturnes with impunity around that domicile.

Ancient Lineage of Sir dward, Re- cently Dead. Sir Edward Newdegate came of a family of great antiquity. As long ago as the Norman Conquest they possessed a_manor of Newdegate in the County of Surrey, In the annals of King John a de Niwudegate is mentioned, and in the reign of Edward III a Newdegate was knighted for services in the wars with the French. About this time Wil- liam De Newdegate was elected to rep- resent Surrey county in parliament, and up to the present day the family has retained a seat in the house of commons. One outstanding member of the line was Sir Richard Newdegate, who, in the reign of Charles IT, was the renovator of the family splendor, which had suffered some declension from the early brilliancy of that New- degate who came over with the Con- queror, On April 5, 1660, just before the restoration of the throne of Charles IL this Sir Richard was elected member of parliament for Tamworth borough, and was a sergeant at law, and after- ward lord chief justice of the upper bench—a position to which he was raised by his cousin, Oliver Cromwell, Cromwell told Sir Richard he would have him hanged because he would not declare a certain act to be treason against the lord protector, since no such offense existed in the statute book, The baronet ts reported to have made reply: “You can do that if you like, but you told me you wished the law enforved and made me a judge, T haye enforced the law. There is no such term as treason against the lord protector. Go to parliament and get the law altered, and then I will en- force it; but not till then.” Cromwell's rejoinder was: “If you gentlemen of the red robe will not administer the law, I will see what my gentlemen of the red coat can do.” Another il lustrious member of the old family was Sir Roger, who on Aug. 5, 1742, was elected member of parliament for Mid- dlesex county, and eight years later be- came member for Oxford university. He founded the Newdegate prize poem for competitors by members of the University of Oxford, and it has been the aspiration and earliest published effort of some of the best modern poets, The late Rt, Hon. C, N. Newdegate, P. | C,, from whom Sir Edward inherited the estates, represented North War- wickshire 1h the house of commons for 42 years. He will ever be remembered by his determined opposition to Chas. Bradlaugh. Newdegates have figured ip the British parliament a matter of 542 years—1260 to 1902—while for con- siderable more than eight centuries they have occupied positions of impor- tance in the country,—London Tele- graph. His First Pajamas. Pater Familias has been grunting and groaning for weeks with the old enemy—rheumatism. His son, the doc- tor, sent him a suit of woolen’ pajamas of vivid blue and pink, with the injune- ‘tion (delivered by his Pennsylvania Dutch wife) “To put them on and not take them off.” ‘The old gentlemen was unusually quiet all day, and after ran- sacking his dictionaries and cyclopedias remarked: “Well, I never heard of the things before.” The next morn- ing in the breakfast room it was noticed by-an observant member of the house- hold that pater was rather bumpy and fat, Finally above the waistband of his trousers crept roll of blue and pink. “Goodness, pap! You haven't got on. ‘those pajamas!” exclaimed the daughter of the family. “Yes, yes I ha’ 3!” he shouted testily. “The doctor ¥ { me to put them on and not take 1em off." And he has them on yet, while the family is in a state of giggle- ment. The doctor, who lives several hun- dred miles away, received this telegram from the daughter: “Come home at once and help us get those pajamas off papa.’—New York Press, CRIMES FOR CHARITY. ‘Men Who Have Robbed the Rich for the Benefit of the Poor. Few are sufficiently enthusiastic in the cause of charity as to go to the extent of crime in its behalf. Never- theless, some of the most notable crimes of the age have been perpetrated purely from philanthropic motives. ‘The unenviable record which Palmer, the housebreaker, gained for burglary has never been surpassed even by Chas. Peace himself. During his criminal career, which extended over ten years, he was instrumental in bringing about more than 200 successful burglaries, in- cluding the robbery of the Marsden dank, without once falling into the hands of the police, and every penny of his illicit gains he gave to charity. When at home he lived humbly in ‘a small villa at Norwich under an as- sumed name and is remembered as one of the greatest benefactors that city ever had. He spent $250,000 in found- ing an infirmary, which he conducted on the most Inxurious lines,and period- ically gave public dinners to which all the poor were welcome. Moreover, when he died and his crimes were ex- posed it was found that no fewer than 40 infirm individuals were living solely at his expense, and the total amount he distributed among other charities exceeded $150,000, all derived from wholesale robbery. Gustave Roselli was the greatest swindler Italy has ever known, though his many crimes were perpetrated pure- ly in the interests of children's char!- ties, He was a cripple and from his earliest days displayed unwonted in- terest in those of tender age rimilarly afflicted. When only 2% he set in mo- tion a scheme of fraud on a gigantic scale, which relieved the wealthy of thousands in 15 years, With the proceeds of his crime he founded and endowed a cripples’ home in Rome, cleared off the debts of three children’s hospitals and _ instituted homes for waifs in many of the prin- cipal Italian cities, though he lived in 2 dilapidated cottage and almost denied himself the bare necessities of life. When eventually that bubble burst he was sentenced to life-long imprison- ment, but so popular had he become with the masses that frantle crowds cheered him as he was led from the courts, After 15 years spent in a dun- geon he was pardoned by King Hum- hort in 1885, only to succumb shortly afterward to the hardships he had en- dured. Many will remember the case of a well known London solicitor who was condemned to a lengthy term of im- prisonment some years ago, brought about by his devotion to charity. Well aware that numbers of discharged con victsdrifted back into crime from sheer inability to secure work on leaving goal, he made a point of waiting out- side the prison gates and offering them employment as they came out. He he- gan by beggaring himself in their in- terests, till, needing further funds to carry on the praiseworthy work, he made serious inroads upon the money instrusted to him by his clients for In- vestment. When eventually he was pulled up by the law it was found that he had provided no fewer than 17 gaol- birds with the wherewithal to set them- selves up in business under his super- vision, ‘The remarkable sequel to this case, CENTRAL N. U. ------ NO. 35-02 however, has vet to be told. At the ex- piration’of his sentence he came out, as he thought a ruined man, so that his amazement can be better imagined than deseribed when a stranger stepped forward and offered him employment. ‘The individual in question was no oth- er than an ex-convict he had helped in former days, who had been thus en- abled to set ‘himself up in business as a drayer, He was now well off, so it came abont that his benefactor entered his employ as a shopwalker. Another remarkable criminal in char- ity's cause was Carvarta, a Spaniard, who died in a Barcelona prison five yenrs ago after a career of crime cover- ing some 20 years, at the end of which he was “wanted” by all the police in Europe. His sole motive was to rob the rich and distribute the proceeds among the poor. On one occasion he stole $15,000 worth of jewels in Am- sterdam, and, having sold them out, sent the proceeds to the mayor of his native town for division among 100 pauipers, while in a second instance he entered a bank in Berlin and, with the booty he secured, liquidated ‘the debts of a hospital in the same city, Alto- gether he is computed to have stolen more than $250,000,not a tithe of which he spent on himself, for he lived in a garret on three shillings a week.— Tid-Bits, Fieninn Hrom the Gitten: Among the tendencies of the times none is more gratifying than those that are gradually making rural life less objectionable to the best ele- ments of our society. The tide of rural exodus to the city shows some signs of turning. ‘Those who have been leaving the old farms have more and more disposition to turn back, The rush of rural communities city: ward is being stayed and the country districts show more and more marked signs of being rescued from desertion. Certainly no more hopeful indication were possible. City life stands, on the whole, fer mental, moral and phy- sical deterioration, —Boston Globe.

Sl ee ree Sometimes victory is so’ limited as to amount to defeat and often a qualified defeat seems like a victory. ‘These conditions certainly existed between Missouri and Nebraska last Saturday. Reports from Lincoln Friday said: “Nebraska is working just as hard as if they had a hard game to play Saturday.” The Ne- braska team came to St. Joe expect- ing alight practice game and a big score, and fell into one of the hardest games ever played and by the closest call managed to make 12 points. Missouri went to the game under the prediction that Ne- braska would more than duplicate the Indian score of last Saturday. ‘The most enthusiastic Missourian, considering the crippled condition of the team, could hope for nothing better than that the score would be kept down toa reasonable point. On account of these conditions the first score of 12 to 0 sent the Nebraskans home with long faces and put Mis- sour! stuck up close to where it was early in the season. It was a victory for Nebraska so far short of what they expected that Nebraska yells were not in evidence after the game. Missouri on the other hand, had done all and more than had been expected and the Missouri rooters raised the quiet old town for one night with as lusty yells as were ever heard from victors. ‘The Tigers had played a great game and though they had lost Missourians have the sporting spirit that enables them to enjoy a hard game won or lost. The rooters showed the pride they feel in the old gold and black and that they are with the team with hearty cheers when they play as they did last Sat- urday even though the final score be against them.

There is only one way te eure deafness, and that is by con- stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, deaf. ness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken ont and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be de- stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condi. tion of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dol- lars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J. Cuenry & Co., Toledo, O.
