EXECUTION -IN ATLANTA Crime Was Committed Eighteen Months Ago and Murderer Re spited a Number of Times ” by the Governor. + Millard Lee, who murdered Lilla May Suttles on Sunday, May 26, i802, im Wesley chapéi, Hiéar’Béen Hill, Ga, was hanged Friday morning in the At lanta jail. ‘Thirteen minutes later he ‘was pronounced dead. ‘With a smile of content on his face and without a tremor in his frame, Lee walked to the gallows, stood on the death trap and prepared for the doath he knew must come. “Have. you anything to say, Mil- lard?” asked Sheriff J. W. Nelms & ininute before the trap fell. “Only that young men should read ‘their Bibles and pray. Take warning from me. Oh, God, have mercy on Biy soul!” were the last words of the young murderer. . ‘Lee was the most composed man ‘in the gallows room. Save for the con- stant movement of his fingers and the oceastonal twitching of his lips he displayed no emotion as he marched to the gallows or as ho stood while hia arms and legs were being tled. Tho vxecutlon was very orderly and there was not tho'slightest hitch from begitning to end. Everything had been so caréfully arranged that theré was not a second’s delay, * Leo died a professed Christian, and said he was going ‘straight td heaven, there to ineet the girl for whose mur- der he paid the penalty on the gallows. Dr, J. M. Suttles, father of the dead girl, was one of the men present In tho gallows room when Lee plunged through the trap to death. During the entire oceasion he spoke to no ote. His faco was !mmobjile as the slayer of his daughter went to death. He loft the Tower within a few moments after the hanging had been completed. A great crowd gathered around the Tower early, despite the fact that they knew they could net be admitted to the jail. The rain which fell just be- fore the hanging did not drive them away, Story of the Crime. On Sunday morning, May 23th of last year, just as the last notes of tho doxology were dying away, and as the hundred wershipers In the Tittle Wes ley Chapel, at Ben Hill, a settlement seven miles from Atlanta, bowed their heads in prayer, Millard Lee, son of a well‘known planter living in the neighborhood, shot and instantly kill- ed beautiful Lilla May Suttles, a play- mate from childhood and the object of bis devotion In mguhood. Unre- quited love was the cause of the trag- edy. Lee ascaped from the church, but was captured next morning, just at daybreak, at Mabelton, 15 miles 7rom the placo where he shot his sweet- heart, He had gone there with the evident Intention of boarding a train for Alabama, which was duo to pass within a few moments after he show- ed himself to the officers. Almost from infancy Lee had loved Lilla May Suttles, the daughter of Dr. J. M. Suttles, a neighbor to the Lees. ‘The two had been playmates in child- hood and had been thrown together much 2in the frolics cf the country side. Lee's queer actions, his evident desire to shun every living man and his brusqueness turned tho girl away from him and she began to avold him in every way. This made Lee ever more sullen and morose. Six times since he committed the murder he had been resptted by Gov- ernor Terrell, awaiting new trials and action on tho’ pert of the supreme court. Every court, however, ,declar- ed him to,be sane and to have com- mitted a murder. The final decision was handed down, by the state supreme cour} Thursday, only one day betore the execution.

Ir was claimed before the election that if Maryland went democratic it would force the race question prom- inently before the people as an is- sue. Well, Maryland, a democratic state, went democratic and why did it go that way? After the Republi- cans won during the McKinley landslide and at the next election the Democrats secured control of the legislature, they passed a con- stitutional amendment restricting the large per cent. of the Republi- can vote, which unrestricted would have given the State to tne Repub- licans on Tuesday. , THE election is over and the Dem > ocrate are jubilant because their par- ty was yictorious at places that were always democratic. ‘They were vic: toriousin New York city, one of their strongest holds, algo in the oth- er southern states where elections were held.

Just a little baby blossom, it grew and smiled and grew. Just as happy in the rain-time as when skies were bright and blue; And the rain that bathed its petals was as kindly as the sun, And the wind was just as kindly when the daylight was all done. an old Springfield. He explained several times each day that the Cub Junta in New York had promised pay him $1000 for each Spanish officer he should shoot. Gorman had 10 pounds of Springfield ammunition his haversack, and considered himself already possessed of a fortune of This was how the blossom viewed it, the little baby-flower. So it smiled and grew the sweeter with every passing hour; And all the little fairies, in moonlight, dusk, and dawn. Rejoiced and sang around it on the dew-bespinkled lawn. BATTLE OF THE BUTTONS There were forty of them, twenty Reds and twenty Blues, marching in long straight lines across the carpet, with the rubber ruler at their backs. You might have thought that they were only buttons, but Willie could have told you better, for he knew that they were two armies at war and that the blue button with the gold rim was the captain of the Blues and the red button, twice as large as the others, was the captain of the Reds, and that the fighting was going to begin very soon. The Blues were on the table-land made by the rug before the grate and the Reds were in the valley, where there came the bunch of green leaves and purple flowers in the carpet. They would have liked to reach the table-kind, too, but the Blues would not let them, and that was how the battle started. Two Reds had come close under the edge of the table-land when a Blue sharpshooter saw them. "Bang!" came the rubber ruler down upon one of the Reds, and it was the end of him, for he turned square over on his little red stomach. Then his comrade fired back. "Bang!" came the rubber ruler down upon the Blue sharpshooter, and he never fired again, but turned square over on his little blue stomach. And then the Reds came running up to help their man, and the Blues came running up to help their man (only he was dead), and there was a steady "bang! being bang!" in six Reds and seven Blues ha' ha' ha' over on their little stomachs, but then taken from the field. It was just about this time that the captain of the Blues noticed most of the Reds in a long, straight line and shouted (or Willie shouted for him): "Boys, see there. Give em grape and cannister." So the rubber ruler came down. "Boom!" along the whole line at once and three of the Reds rolled over all at one time. That was a dreadful thing and in a second the captain of the Reds shouted (or Willie shouted for him): "Scatter, boys. Spread out. Don't let him do that thing again." So they spread out, and right there was the turning point of the battle. One of the Reds (he had a little white spot of him) crawled close up to the table-laud again and took deadly aim straight at the captain of the Blues. "Bang!" he fired, but it was no use. That captain only bounced—he never turned over at all. "Bang!" fired back the Blues, but that white-spotted Red never budged. "Bang!" he fired once more, but this time the captain of the Blues jumped straight up in the air and fell over the edge of the table-land and rolled down among the Reds and was captured. The white-spotted Red saw the discouraged Blues retreating and with all his might he shouted (or Willie shouted for him): "Bring the Bridge! Bring the scaling ladder." And when three men had brought the bridge, which was a stiff, white sheet of paper, they set it against the table-land, and all those Reds went marching up. The Blues by this time had rallied and began to fire again, but it was too late. The Reds had already climbed to the table-land and— And just then little Ruth came running in and tripped over the tableland and sent every soldier flying into the air, and when they came down every one of them was roiled over on his stomach, excepting that whitespotted Red. "And what happened then?" asked mamma, when she had comforted little Ruth and taken up her mending once, more. "Well," said Willie, "the Reds were just going to beat, but there came an awful, awful earthquake and it killed every man of 'em but one."—Frederick Hall, in Chicago Record-Herald. THE ROMANTIC BUGLE. Ralph D. Palme was one of the adventurous b弯cancers of the Three Friends, the famous illbustering craft of the Cuban war. The grim yet humorous study of his adventures 'is in Outing, Says Mr. Palme: "Jack Gorman, the cavalry bugler, had refused with scorn the new Mauser rifle offered; him by the leader of the expedition, but had brought along an old Springfield. He explained several times each day that the Cuban Junta in New York had promised to pay him $1000 for each Spanish officer he should shoot. Gorman had 150 pounds of Springfield ammunition in his haversack, and considered himself already possessed of a fortune of exactly $150,000. It was as safe as money in the banks. 'One hundred and fifty officers at $1000 each.' "In the haversack was also a battered bugle mouthpiece, treasured as a souvenir of the fight with the United States Cavalry at Wounded Knee. In the middle of the skirmish with the gunboat Gorman opened fire with the Springfield from the afterdeck, shooting with the same earnestness and deliberation to be imagined if he had been bowling over his $1000 with every cartridge. He became really and unexpectedly effective when he ceased biring, pushed the bugle mouthpiece into the muzzle of the Springfield, threw open the breach block and began to blow the calls he knew from Boots and Saddles' to 'Assembly.' The extemporized bugle was a triumph. The sound of it seemed to transform the Three Friends into a war vessel. It was learned later from Havana that the officers of the Spanish gunboat were alarmed by this indication that the vessel they had attacked was an armed and disciplined gunboat with a naval equipment. The bugle calls made the disreputable Three Friends a formidable foe in the darkness. Having blown his 'musical' repertoire through the barrel of his rifle, Gorman pulled out the mouthpiece, jammed, a carriage into the other end and resumed his fire at the wide, wide world." WHY RUN FROM RAIN? "Do you know," said the Observant Citizen, according to the Philadelphia Press, "the habit of running through the rain is based on a definite fallacy? It is a common habit. But does it tend to minimize the amount of water falling on a person exposed to the rain? I am convinced that it rather aggravates the situation. By experience, in passing the distance of a block, running one time and walking the other, and at times when the rainfall was about the same, I found that my clothes picked up more water and were consequently damper when I covered the distance in a run than they were when I walked it. "There seems to be a good reason for the rather curious fact. Rain falls irregularly. Sometimes there is a space of five or six inches between the falling drops, as we have noticed on smooth surfaces, like a stone flagging, and again only the fraction of an inch will separate the drops. Water occasionally falls in sheets, but this is not usual. But while the fall is irregular, considered with the respect to the perpendicular lines described in the descent, looking straight ahead and through the lines we will find before us a sheet of water that is well-nigh solid. We can understand that running against this sheet of water will have very much the same effect wind would have if its direction forced the rain in our faces. We simply pick up the water, and the fact that the spaces between the drops perpendicularly considered are greater than the spaces in any given direction horizontally will explain to us the fallacy of the whole thing. I will put it in another way. Suppose you stand perfectly still in the rain for a space of sixty seconds, then you run through the rain for the same period of time. Is it not reasonable to assume that you will pick up more water in your flight than you will in your stationary attitude? I think so. I have tried it, at any rate, and have found the fact to be that way." MOUNTING LARGE ANIMALS. At one time or another in his life, every boy who is a boy has been fired with a desire to "stuff" an animal of some sort—either a favorite dog which has met with an untimely fate, or an unfortunate cat, or some wild animal which has fallen into his hands. As a rule, however, something has gone wrong with the operation; either the skin has been ruined in removing it, or it has been spoiled by insects after it was removed; or, if both of these difficulties were gotten over successfully, the result has looked so awkward and shapeless that it has soon been thrown away. This is not surprising when it is understood how much skill is needed to properly mount an animal, large or small, and how thorough a knowledge of its anatomy is required to make it look lifelike. Nowadays small animals are modelled in plaster of paris almost as if they were intended for statuettes, and then have the skin drawn over them carefully, while the frames of large animal are constructed of wood, covered with laths, over which quantities of excelsior are fastened, or with wire netting, over which plaster is carefully molded to fit the animal. -Crittenden Marriott, in St. Nicholas. New Theological Students. The number of theological students in Germany has diminished gradually from 4267 in 1530 to 2149, or less than half, although the population has doubled since 1830. is no matter, for the opening is for one, not for the many, and that one would probably be that rara avis, the business woman who finds her work entirely to her mind and a real pleasure. An establishment something on this order is flourishing in Sewickley, having grown from a modest little shop for the sale and exchange of books to a widely known place where one may revel in rare volumes and antique furniture.—Pittsburg Dispatch. The season's importations of hosiery include very elaborate and handsome designs. Fifty dollars is the price asked for some of these richly embroidered silk stockings. An artistic pair in white silk shows chiffon leaves and flowers set in the fine mesh. The same design is in black. In another pair of black stockings tiny white and shaded blue beads are closely imitated in embroidery, producing quite a Japanese effect, the design showing tiny birds flying across the fabric in regular "tap" style. Another costly stocking is ornamented with exquisite drawn work in unique pattern—Brooklyn Eagle. HYGIENE OF THE HAIR. In order to give your hair the hygienic care which it demands it is necessary, ladies, that you should know: First, that the scalp dislikes dampness, which soaks it, and is hurtful to its vitality. Second, that the scalp requires constant airing, to assist the evaporation of perspiration and other secretions of the skin, which have as injurious an effect upon it as dampness. Third, that both the scalp and the hair dislike violent twisting and pulling, which put their strength and solidity to a hard test. These three fundamental principles being known, they should be remembered and applied in the best way, and as frequently as possible. Woman's Home Companion. THE WOMEN OF ENGLAND. The fashionable Englishwoman cramps and fluffs her hair, until it "pumps" all around her head like a rather stiff halo, and then she tides it all down with a hair net, both fore and aft. But the hair is such a pretty color and they have the most beautiful complexions and brilliant coloring to be found in the whole world. There are no middle aged women here; they are either young and fresh or old and beckoned. When the wrinkles begin to come they are immediately and persistently chased away by an electrical contrivance, massage and plenty of expensive cold cream. One rarely sees a gray haired woman—at least, not a fashionable one—for when the hair begins to whiten she tints it until it is a beautiful reddish blonde brown, and then she goes tripping down the ladder of life utterly and gaily unconscious of the devastating footprints of Father Time.—Linda Hull Larned, in Good Housekeeping. THE BEST DRESSED WOMEN One of the reasons why the Parisienne has been recorked the best dressed woman in the world is that she invariably suits her attire to circumstances. Undoubtedly it would be a good thing if her example were more widely followed; demand for hats would be increased and the profit likewise. It is more to the advantage of the milliner to sell two or three hats than one, and smart hats do not necessarily have a wider margin of profit than more simple ones. Frequently the opposite is the case; more often than not what is charged for is the style and novelty, and it is not always possible to raise the price in exact proportion to the value of the trimmings and materials employed. Many milliners here have a certain scale of prices. Their minimum price is a high one and between this and the maximum there is not so great a difference as might be supposed—The Military Trade Review. THE OLD-TIME PELERINE. Capris will be worn for the good and simple reason that woman who have invested a thousand dollars or more in sable circulars are not likely to throw them aside, but as far as asl mode is concerned, they have given place to pelerines, the old-fashioned tippet pointed on the shoulders, such as were worn *hundred years ago*. They are delightfully warm, for the sloping shoulders reach on either side almost to the elbow, and cover both back and chest well. They have this merit, that, unlike a coat or jacket, they can be easily thrown off in a room and resumed on going out again. It has been for years a fruitful source of colds that we have become too heated when paying visits by over clothing retained indoors and have felt the effects when going out into the cold air. There are many shapes in pelerines, and narrow stoles, and many styles. The sable, mink and stone marten stoles have tails at each end as well as half way down and at the back—New York Commercial Advertiser. WOMEN AS BOOKSELLERS. London curio shops are largely in the hands of women, but though women writers of books are legion women sellers of books are conspicuous by their absence. Has the trade of the bookeller no charm for women? It has suggested, and with apparent reason, that a charming woman, with delicacy of feeling and tact, might establish a book shop in any fashionable thoroughfare and attract to it all the most famous and fashionable people of the day, making it, in fact, something of a sadon. Of course, specially personal qualifications would be necessary, and probably they are not often found in the woman possessing the requisite capital, still, that Is no matter, for the opening is for one, not for the many, and that one would probably be that raa avis, the business woman who finds her work entirely to her mind and a real pleasure. An establishment something on this order is flourishing in Sewickley, having grown from a modest little shop for the sale and exchange of books to a widely, known place where one may revel in rare volumes and antique furniture.—Pittsburgh Dispatch. THE DUTY OF PARENTS. Duty to children is not summed up in feeding, clothing and sending to a better or worse—at present usually worse—school. The parents' duty begins long before. It is as necessary that we should live healthfully and happily before our children are born, as that we should clothe them afterward. Only by being in the best condition ourselves can we give the proper heritage to a child. To bring a being into the world and handicap him by your own tolles and negligences is a poor trick; and yet it is just the trick that nine-tenths of the parents play on their offspring. Treat your child at least as well as you would a fellow-man, and be thoughtful of his future. Then, having once given him the good heritage, see to it that his home life shall be such that his mental and moral nature may be rightly developed. Sick or weakly children will in their turn produce weaklings; halting, cowardly matures will have children who are dwarfed in the same way; and instead of the race being helped by these, its general average will be lowered. Consider, then, your duty to your children through yourself. Live in youth and manhood the sanest, cheerfulest and fullest life, and make your home reflect these virtues. So shall your children be in truth the gift of God, and you can say with the psalmist, "Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them."—Woman's Home Companion. THE ROCK OF DISASTER. There is just one excuse for debt in the household—unsuitable money allowance by the head of the family. There are plenty of men who expect to secure all the comforts and a few luxuries at home without making proper provision for them. Every wife is justified in her request for a money allowance, out of which are to be paid the household expenses and those attending her personal needs. It is absolutely impossible to secure comfort by depending upon erratic gifts of money. A stipulated sum alone insures permanent home happiness, and that should be on a scale corresponding with the husband's income and the needs of the family. Where the wife handles the family income the question of allowance never comes up. Many wives have only themselves to blame for the straitened circumstances in which they find themselves. Men are creatures of habit and will be likely to stand by whatever arrangements are made in the honeymoon period. It certainly seems strange that men expect a certain sum of money to go just as far after a baby or two has arrived as it did when there was just man and wife. If it took $10 a week when they were first married, $10 is all that is handed out when the family is four instead of two. They argue that babies eat so little. They are dumfounded that expenses become heavier every year of married life. But children mean extra help, and help means waste, and wastage means the disappearance of money.—Philadelphia Telegraph. FASHION OUTLOOK FOR 1901. The fashion outlook for the winter promises a great diversity in coloring, material and design. As has been the case for several seasons, individuality of taste is allowed full sway, yet anything crude or too striking will not meet with approval. All crudities must be toned down and modified to insure artistic results. As yet it is impossible to say that any type of dress is to be the one for the coming winter. There is evident a desire to return to the old-fashioned styles that prevailed a generation ago, a desire to do away with the exaggerated long waisted effect, and to bring in the founced wide skirts in place of the close fitting and almost too clinging ones that have found such favor for the last two or three years, to accentuate slenderness, and have tight fitting waists rather than the loose, graceful ones, and to bring sharply into prominence the lines of the bust. But that this has already been proved impossible is seen in the great diversity of gowns, and also in the combinations of the diverse ideas. There are very few waists made with the exaggerated straight front and disproportionately long waist, and yet there are evening gowns with very long narrow points in front and quite high on the hips. There are wide bodices and girdles in the place of the narrow belts, made of the same material as the gown, and yet there are any number of exquisite creations of the models favored where the narrowest possible belt is used, so that there shall be no dividing line at the waist. But on the whole the wide, draped, pointed belt promises to be one of the marked features of the season's gowns. These belts are draped over the fitted and boned waist, and as a rule a little pad of sachet is tacked inside the lining just above the waist to improve the line of the figure.—A. T. Ashmore, in Harper's Bazar. Ice Heavier Than Water By experiments of greater accuracy Professor Babcock, of the Wisconsin University, shows that half a ton of ice weighs more than the water obtained from melting that quantity of ice.

In some of the townships the residents have built log houses, the State contributing nothing. At Twin Lake School there are American, French, Provincial, Italian and Indian pupils. The only man teacher is at Moose River, and his duties include ferrying the children back and forth. Many families have the misfortune to include one member who, perhaps from some congenital defect, is not trustworthy, observes Harper's Weekly. Yet they hate to give him up, and hoping, as he goes from one disaster to another, that he will yet learn his lesson, they keep on finding chances for him to throw away. To raise up such a person is simply to add to the height from which he must fall. To protect his reputation is simply to furnish him with means to deceive whoever trusts him. The sooner he gets down to the level he belongs in the better for himself, his friends, and society. Help him on, but not up. Pay his board, but don't find him a job where he can betray confidence. Keep him out of the poorhouse and out of jail, if possible, but most of all keep him out of mischief by making serious mischief inaccessible to him. To put a defective, irresponsible man, who is used to ease and the comforts of life, into social and commercial competition with persons of his own social grade is to invite disaster. Let him be known, if he is known at all, for what he is, and thereby minimize the risk involved in his existence. HOW TO BUILD THE LOG FIRE HOW TO BUILD THE LOG FIRE. The season when a good log fire is comfortable in the evenings is at hand. To make an attractive one, which does not have to be coaxed with applications, of kindling wood now and then, shake out a double-sheet newspaper and leave the edges loose so that it will light easily. It will take longer to ignite it crushed and spoils the effect of the kindling wood, which is thrown on the paper against the androirs. The black log should be of the largest size the fireplace will hold. Green wood is preferable at this time of the year. It should be put close back to the wall. If it is a split log, the inside should be turned towards the front. Three logs are enough to start a fire with. Give it a good start, and then let it alone. Nothing is worse than a smoky, constantly poked wood fire—New York Times. Sabbath observance in Belgium is optional, especially in regard to the delivery of letters. Postage stamps have a tiny coupon at the bottom, on which is the legend, engraved both in French and Flemish: "Not to be delivered on Sunday." If the sender of the letter be a person of strong religious views, who believes in observing the Sabbath in every form, he permits the coupon to remain attached to the stamp, and the letter, which might be delivered on Sunday, does not go out of the receiving office until the following day. If, on the other hand, the sender of the letter has no scruples, he tears off the coupon, and the letter is delivered on Sunday, the same as any other day. A fine is imposed on the carrier for violating the instructions of the coupon. THE THREE BROTHERS WHO BE CAME TREES. (An Indian Legend.) There were once three brothers who went to seek the Lord of Life and win their hearts' desires. One, though tall enough, wished to be taller still. He had tried in many ways to make himself taller, because he wished to be admired and looked up to by smaller people, and win the love of the beautiful Indians of his tribe. To make himself appear taller than he really was he put soft clay into his moccasins, to raise him on his feet, and he plastered up his hair to stand high, and on top of it was a long turkey tail. But what he wished for was to be taller still. The second brother asked that he might live always, where he might behold all the beauty of the land, and rest in peace forever; the third brother asked to live to a great age, and always to be healthy till he died. Now when the Lord of Life heard his servant, the Earthquake, and commanded him to set them firmly with their feet fast planted in the ground, and when this was done, the three brothers were to pine trees. The Lord of Life paid heed to their wishes, for he gave them what they most desired. He who would be tall overtopped all the trees in the forest; even the turkey tail was not forgotten, it waves to this hour, and summer days the giant tree sways and murmurs with pride. The second brother, who wished to dwell in peace upon the earth, will do so while he is rooted to the ground; and the third, who wished to live to the end in perfect health, is still standing straight and sturdy in the forest—Pittsburg Dispatch. A DELICIOUS CAKE. A thoroughly delicious cake, which has the additional merit of not being common in use, can be made with a pineapple filling. For the layers no receipt is better than the old established one, which calls for a cupful of butter, two of sugar, three of flour, four eggs and a cupful of milk. Beat the sugar and the butter to a cream. Separate the whites from the yolks of the eggs and beat the yolks until they are creamy and the whites to a stiff froth. Sift the flour. Add the yolks to the sugar and butter, then stir in the flour, alternating with the milk. Beat the whites in briskly, add half a teaspoonful of vanilla flavoring and bake in jelly cake tins. For the filling make a boiled-icing of two cupfuls of granulated sugar and the whites of two eggs, half a teaspoonful' of cream-of-tartar and a cupful of boiling' water. Boll the sugar and the water together until it forms a thread. Beat the eggs to a stiff froth, then add the cream-of-tartar and the syrup a little at a time, beating all the while. Boat 'until cold and thick, flavor with orange juice, and spread over the layers of the cake, sprinkled with grated pineapple, which has been sweetened.

They will be much lighter, and during the day they will be coaxed into parlor cars. gh Og Rey tr : : wit ee 3 5 “ BY LEWIS B, MILLER, .

I had tarrled longer at Simp- son's than I ought to have done, and Y felt certain she had got ont of pa- tlonce and started after me, 1 *Xes'm, I'm a-cowing!” I shouted ‘ack. Then I hitched the bacon a little higher and hurried along the rocky road at a trot. ‘The. sereans sounded angry—Aunt Mat didn’t bave a very gentle volce when she was out of temper. Before long I heard another screant. Looking down toward the swamp, I saw fot Aunt Mat, but some big animal coming up the open slope to meet me. “He looked like a cat, but n cat as big as n cow. ‘The curve of the Jand made it Impossible for me to see him while he was.on the ground, but whenever he Jumped I could see him plainly enough.

"One fork crossed to Simpson's, the oiher led up our side of the ridge to Uncle Ammy White's. It was two miles back to Simpson's, and only'a mile to where Whito lived.

Even we boys, wore afraid to go far to gather nuts, and the women and children bardly dared poke thelr heads out of doors. The men carried guns, especially at night. ‘The tleer didn’t show himself in broad daylight, although he was seen occasionally at dusk. "Meanwhile he was itving on the fat of the laud.

We didn't know that became of the tiger during the daytime, but we supposed he must retrent into the swamp, On¢ day ‘Tim Watson saw him lying on top of a big log in the woods, asleep in the sunshine.

The dogs growled and turned thelr hair the wrong way; but they wouldn't follow the trail. ‘Trust o dog to know what not to attack! ‘Things went on from bad to worse along Chinkapin Ridge. Every morn- ing some animal was missing, and the half-devoured remains were generally found.

Along in December the first fight snow fell. ‘That was the signal for a general gathering.

Obl station is 2600 miles beyond Moscow on the Great Siberian Rallway, and Katunda {s 640 miles direct south from the. Obi. From the great dificulty of reaching there it fs not surprising to find that no European lias tried to exploro these mountains, and there{s no literature on the subject in English save a short translation of about twenty lines from 4 paper read before the Imperial Rus- sian Geographical Society. Professor Sapdzinokof, of the Tomsk Untyersity, ‘with four companions climbed 13,300 feet from the south side of Bela dur- ing the summer of 1900, and then it was estimated that the moutitain was 14,500 feet high. Ar, Turner intended to try to confirm Professor Sapo- zinokof’s measurements. It was in the late winter, and though the Russian authorities were heipful, they declared auy ascent was “Impos- sible,” but Mr. Turner engaged hunt- ers and crossed tie steppes in Intensely told weather, riding on sledges for three days and two nights, iheré béing snowdrifts everywhere. Katunde was thbs reached, and the journey was con- tinued on horses past the settlemerits of friendly Kalmucks, who had noser seen an Bugfishman. and through 2 dense forest to the Akem Valley. It'was first of all necessary to ex- amine Beluka. Accordingly Mr. Turner climbed one mountain 17,800 feet high, and did so alone, for the bunter he took with him refused to run any risk, and stopped at a lower altitude. The fol- owing gay Mr. Turner climbed an- bther mountain, and then commenced to scale the object of-bis visit: | The party moved off at 11 b'clock, and after going over a very difficult moraine for two hours, it commenced to siiow, with the result that it fright- ced the hunters, avd ther left Mr. ‘Tnrner alone on the mountain, on the distinct understanding that they would be up at his tent by 4 o'clock the next morning. It was a lonely afternoon and night, but the next morning, the hunters, not being vislble, Mr, Turner started off at 5 a.m, ‘The snow had stopped. and in four hours he reaeled the bate of the netual peaks of Beluka.

Soon afterwards Br. Turner Zelt iI, ‘and he attributed it to having poisoned himself by drinkiog soup out of a tin, and a-diet of snow water, with black bread, dry rugks, and tinned articles.

The heavily loaded guns spurted fire and roared till every report seemed to split the very trees as it went echoing through the woods. When the excitement was past, wo gathered round the fire again. Most of us felt rather sheepish over the escape of the tiger; but Several de- clared that he must be mortally wound- ed, and that we'd find him dead come- where. But’as we couldn't track him in the dark, we all returned to our homes. ‘The next morning we came back and tgok up the trail. We fonnd several badly scarred trees; but thére wasn't any blood on the snow, or any other evidence that the tiger had been hit. In fact, there was pretty good evi- dence that he wasn't hurt at all; for we tracked him as far as we could into the swamp, and the last we saw of his trail he was still going, fifteen feet at a jump. He must have been pretty badly scorched, and ne was eertainly badly scared. For a year we half expected him to come back, but be didn’t; and after that night we never beard of him again, I suppose his experience with the fre convinced him that life on the uplands wasn't very attractive.

It is not generally known that there is a strike in the city. The reason of this is that the strikers have in a quiet and dignified way made their demands and are, acting in an orderly manner thereby making more friends for themselves and which will have a tendency of securing what they are justly contending for. The men who are on the strike are the freight handlers of the Merchants and Miners Transportation and Ocean Steamship Companies. These men are all members of the Inter National Longhoremen, Marine and Transport Workers Association, Local No. 442, with Mr. Josiah A. Cohen as president. Several months ago the association authorized the president to communicate with the managers of the ocean liners, requesting an increase in pay. The request was only for five cents an hour more for all workers and ten cents an hour for over time and on Sundays. The amounts that the men were getting are fifteen cents an hour for those on the wharf, or truckers, seventeen and a half cent for those in the ship and twenty cents for the headers. The request for an increase was substantiated by facts showing that the increased cost of living caused it. For a time this request for an increase was ignored by both companies and when the managers were confronted and told of the grievances of the men, they made light of them and refused the increase. The men then "went up the hill" and have not returned to work. The companies were then placed in a straightened position; ships continued to arrive without helps to unload them and those in port unable to leave for want of freight. The surrounding counties and cities were scoured for helps which resulted in the securing of a number of green hands who caused more trouble than good they did. Many of them also were badly injured on account of their inexperience. The demand of the freight handlers for increase pay is a just one. While at work these men are faithful and efficient; they never leaved at work but to the contrary are always going as some say "like race horses". Persons who visited the northern terminals of these lines and compare the freight handlers there with those at the southern end can easily see that the southern helpers are more valuable, and in fact the amount of work done by one of them doubles that done by a northern worker, yet these workers get a considerable larger amount than the men on the strike. The companies should look at the matter in this light and accede to the demands of these faithful workers By refusing to allow the men the very small amounts that they asked for, the companies have lost thousands of dollars and at the same time delaying the delivering of the merchants' freight. The sympathy of every laboring man is with these strikers in their just demand, and they are working to prevent green helps coming here to take the strikers' place. Last week Mr. W. M. Chisholm visited Charleston in the interest of the strikers and advised the laboring men not to come here. He distributed thousands of circulars con- containing the following: "The strike is Still On! We ask you to hands off, and let us manage our own affairs. We as Union Freight Handlers who are working for the Ocean Steamship Lines of Savannah asking for an increase of five and ten cents on the hour. We also ask every race loving man to help us in the struggle by staying away, so that manhood rights and justice will be maintained. We are your brothers in black, L. F. H. 422." It is hoped by the strikers that these circulars scattered throughout the surrounding places will have the desired effect in keeping away undesirable helps. The city is already flooded with many that have caused the low price of labor. It is far better for them to stay away unless they will maintain the proper price for labor. The strikers are determined to stay away from the wharves until their demands are granted. They are loyal to their organization and are holding daily meetings. They are of a class of men that does much to build up the city and especially the retail merchants, and every ad should be given them in their contention for a more amicable adjustment of the price for their labor. On Wednesday afternoon the union was visited by Messrs Walter S. Scott, L S. Reed and THE TRIBUNE representative, each of whom made short talks of encouragement. The following are officers of the Union: Josiah A. Cohen, President; Wm. Robinson, Vica-President; Nathan Roberts, Financial and Corresponding Secretary; AMUSÉMENT COLUMN.

The university has now obtained permission to excavate in Tel Ibrahim. Application was made to the Sultan for permission to explore the ruins of Babylon and its neighborhood in 1900, and after long delays it was granted. But further delays occurred and the trade was not issued. Then it was discovered that the Germans had received permission to explore the same territory. It is believed that the ruins of the temple in which Nebuchadnezzar offered sacrifices in 580 B. C., and also an extensive library of clay tablets, will be uncovered. THE REWARD OF ECONOMY.

It was alleged in the Indictment that he had "maliciously and feloniously appropriated and embezzled, for his own use, the sum of $500,000." "What say you?" he was asked.

AN APPALLING 'DISASTER Passenger and Freight Trains Collide in Indianapolis Suburbs, Scattering Death and Destruction. Sixteen Dead; Fifty Hurt. A special from Indianapolis, Ind., says: Fifteen persons were killed and over fifty injured, some fatally. Saturday morning by a collision between a special passenger train on the Big Four railroad and a freight engine drawing coal cars. The accident happened in the edge of the city. The passenger train of twelve coaches was carrying 954 persons, nearly all of whom were students of Purdue university, and their friends from Lafayette to Indianapolis, for the annual football game between the Purdue team and the Indiana university squad for the state championship which was to have been fought Saturday afternoon. In the first coach back of the engine were the Purdue football team, substitute players and managers. Three players, the assistant coach, trainer and seven substitute players of the university team were killed and every one of the fifty-three other persons in the car were either fatally or seriously injured. From Joy to Gloom. From the twelve passenger coaches were coming the joyous cries of a thousand rooters for Purdue, clad in gala dress with colors streaming, while in the front coach sat twenty muscular fellows trained to the hour, on whom the hopes of a brilliant victory on the gridtron were confidently placed. Around a curve at the Eighteenth street cut, Engineer Schumaker found directly in front of him the freight engine and coal cars moving slowly from a switch leading to a gravel pit. He reversed his engine and jumped. The crash hurled the passenger engine and three front coaches against the steel freight cars loaded with coal that plowed their way through and hurried under a pile or wreckage weighing many tons fully sixty human belings. The first car, in which were the players, was completely demolished, the roof being torn away and landing across a car of coal, while the body of the car was reduced to kindling wood against the side of the steel freight cars. The second coach, containing the band of musicians, was partially telescoped, while the third was overturned and hurled down a 15-foot embankment. The other coaches did not leave the track. Immediately after the shock the passengers,men and women, began the work of tearing away the wreckage and pulling out dead and dying classmates and fraternity brothers. The young women performed heroic work. Though the bodies were in several instances horribly mangled—one completely and one partially beheaded—they took upon their laps the heads of the dying and injured and soothed their sufferings as best they could until the surgeons arrived. A general alarm was sounded and every assistance the city could afford was rushed to the wreck, which was three miles from the business center. While the dead and injured were being carrid to the morgues and hospitals, the work of tearing away the wreck and rescuing those pinned beneath went on. Big muscular students wept aloud as they stood over the bodies of their dead friends and fellow workers or gazed helpless on the sufferings of their college mates writhing in pain. To add to the horror the wreckage caught, fire, but the flames were extinguished by the students after a hard fight. While the work of rescue was going on there arrived in the city the opposing team and over nine hundred cheering followers of the red and white of Indiana university at Bloomington. As the happy and excited students poured from the train news of the tragedy to the black and gold of Perdue was received. Instantly all was sadness and sympathy. The strong melted into sorrowing groups that separated to search the morgue and hospital for friends or took cars for the scene of the wreck to lend any possible aid. The Sixteenth Victim. William Bailey, of New Richmond, Ind., sub-player on the Purdue university football team, died Sunday afternoon from internal injuries received in the Big Four wreck. This is the sixteenth death. Fourteen dead bodies were shipped to their homes during the day. Flerce Rlotting Occurs in Bijuga, Spain. Troops, Guard the Banks.

How a Farmer was freed from Misery ORTHY of a higher recommendation than I can find words to express." This is what Mr. J. H. Plangman (of Sherman, Tex.) says of Doan's Kidney Pills. He tells his experience in the following words: He says, "Sometime in September I was taken with a dull aching pain across the small of my back, directly over the kidneys. I paid small attention to this at first, thinking it would pass off. But instead of getting, better it became worse and in a short time the pain centered through my left hip and Pain across the small of the back. It does not always show itself at first, but appears just in this way, when some unusual movement or action brings sharp pains and exhaustive aches, telling of slick kid-pees. So Mr. Plangman's experience bore this out. Continuing, he says: "I did not know the cause of the trouble, but I am led to believe now that it was first brought about by jumping in and out of the wagon and in some way I may have strained my back. "I was constantly growing worse," he continues, "and I became very much alarmed about my condition. I know that something had to be done or serious results were sure to follow. I went to a specialist here in Sherman, and underwent a rigid examination." Then he relates how the doctor told him that it was a serious case, but that he could cure him for fifty dollars.
