Thoroton Haine even turn? ed his revolver on Mrs. Annis, wbo atood nearby, aod threaened her as she started tn rush to ber husband's aid. John Tonoing, the S*edish boat-man who knocked tbe revolver out of tbe band of Capain Haina, is miming. STARVED TO DEATH With a painting valued at more thao tl,OOO in her potssesiou, Carlotta Rod? riguez, tbe young daughter of one of California's most noted artist*, lived in poverty aod actual want in Bal Fran? cisco for aeveral years and finally died wheo ber life conld bave been aaved had she hal the money to porchase proper food and medicines, rather than aell the picture because it wm the lust product it her father's genius that remained to ber. A. O. Rodr'gac/., though of a poor Spanish family, earned a wide success with his {sibtings, but wheo be died of coosomption 12yeare ago be left nothing bnt the picturea in his studio fat the support of bia daughter and mother. Ooe by one these were sold that the dire necessities of life blight be securfd. <>ai when "Tbe Pawing Srorm" -looe re? mained Carlotta refused to permit its sale, so abe practically starved to death. ll'fore tbe end came she gave the picture into tbe keeping of friends, telling them tbat it wouid provide an easy living for her own soul. Then the end tame snd toe girl breathed her last, happy in tbe thought that her own needs bad not forced her to part with tbe work of ber ft.tiler's hands that she held dearer than life itself. _____________ RAILROAD FARES Henry T.

The broken pier stands in tbe river next to tbe Maryland shore. A beavy steel girder was beirg placed io position wben tbe pier gave way. The girder and heavy steel iron traveler, witb four 'eeo men, fell 50 feet into the river. F ur of the men wera crushed tn death. Thepierthat gave va? vas finished sbout a week ago.
