A WOMAN’S CATCH.
She Lands a Big Salmon in Seventeen
Minutes.
_ To Lady Edith Trotter belongs the
distinction of having captured the big
gest salmon of the season, on the
Sprouston water of the Tweed. It
turned the scale at 485 pounds and was
iseded in seventeen minutes. The fish
was 50 inches in length and 27 inches in
girth, *No larger fish this season or for
seany seasons has been recorded as
caught, with rod and line in British
waters,” said Mr. Marston, editor of
the Fishing Gazette. “To take so large
a fish is certainly a great achievemnt
for a 2 lady. The time in which it was
saken is also remarkable. The rough
and-ready rule for large fish is a pound
# minute. A forty-eight-pound fish might
Bave taken another half-hour to land.”

THIS IS WHAT REPRESENTATIVE
EAYES FEARS HAS BEEN DONE
IN THE HOUSE.
et e
TAFT CONSULTED IN MATTER,
e e e
Minority Taking Advantage of Oppor
tunity of Getting Members on
Investigating Committee.
REPUBLICAN CAUCUS IS CALLED.
e s
WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 18—A
new and decidedly interesting turn was
given to the ‘‘insurgent’” movement in
the House today when Representatives
Hayes of California, Murdock of Kan
sas and Gardner of Massachusetts has
tened to the white house to tell the
President in effect that they were afraid
thew had been *“used” by the Demo
crats in the matter of the Ballinger-Pin
cliot investigating committee -and that
the Demoecrats were taking advantage of
the opportunity to put two of their most
partisan members on the committee for
the purpose of making political capital
out of the affair.
Hayes First to Call.
Mr. Hayes was the first of the insur
gents to reach the white house. He told
the President that while he was an in
surgent he did not intend to be placed
in the position of helping tl}e Democrats
to “throw mud at a Republican adminis
tration.”” This, he was afraid, was go
ing to happen unless some means 'ot
changing the Democratic selections for
the investigating committee could be de
vised.
Messrs, James of Kentueky and Rain
ey of Illinois we. e selected by the Demo
¢ratic caucus for appointment under the
action of the insurgent-Democratic com
bination, which took the power of ap
pointing the cominittee away from the
speaker.
Hardly had Mr. Hayes left the execu
tive offices when Messrs. Murdock ‘and
(GGardner walked in arm in arm. They
reiterated much that Mr. Hayes had
said, but admitted that they did not see
exactly how they were going to get out
of the difficulty.
A statement was prepareq by _Mr.
Gardner and Mr. Murdock, which said:
“We called on the President and :s‘poke
to him about the personnel of the inves
tigating committee, but nothing definite
was arrived at. 'The President felt that
it was not for him to indicate his choice
as to the future action of the House in
this respect, but urged that it was of the
utmost importance that the members of
the committee should be men recognized
by both sides of the House as fair and
impartial in the investigation.
Call for a Caucus.
A call was issued today for a Repub
lican caucus of the House Wednesday
night to select the House members of
the investigating committee. The call
stated that the **House members’ would
be named, which many people believe
foreshadows an effort to defeat Repre
sentatives James _and Rainey, who were
selected as the minority members. :

ANOTHER BOY MURDER.
—————————— !
Fourteen-Year-old Lad Slain in New
York Flat—Police Have No
Clue.
NXEW YORK, Jan. 18.—With the
maniac who shot and killed one child
and wounded another on Washington
Heights, last week, still unidentified and
at large, the police today found another
boy murder mystery on their hands.
Morris Wollman, 14 years of age, was
found dead today, shot through the
heart, in the vestibule of the flat house,
where he lived on Allen street. He had
apparently staggered down stairs from
the room on the second floor where the
shooting occurred and dropped lifeless
in «ie hallway. 4 revolver was found
in the room.
Neveral persons are said to have been
together in the room shortly before
voung W nllmm_x’s dead body was discov
m'ed‘ and two boys, one of them with a
bandaged head, was later seen hurrying
out of the building.
Inquiry developed that the boy, with
several companions, togged out with the
paraphernalia of the legendary ‘‘wild
west,”” had been playing in the house in
the absence of Lisenberg’s sister, with
whom he lived. The dead lad himself
wore a belt with a carving kunife thrust
through it.

DIVORCE IS ANNULLED.
e nhad e
Willis Counselman, Chicago Breker, De
clared to Have Married Second
Wife Illegally.
CHICAGO, lIL., Jan. 18 —Judge Chet
lain today ordered that the decree sep
arating Willis Counselman, a broker,
from Counselman’s former wife, Lulu
Counselman, be set aside. This will an
nul the recent marriage of Counselman
and Clara IFrench.
The action to anunual the marriage was
brought by the Chicago Bar association
and the relatives of the first Mrs. Coun
selman charging that gross fraud was
practiced in obtaining the divorce. The
first Mrs. Counselman was in a sana
tarium for the insane throughout the
time the proceedings for the divorce were
pending, and she was declared to have
received no notice of the suit.
In the decree separating Counselman
from his first wife it was set forth that
he was not eligible to wed within one
vear from the time of the decree. He
disregarded this prohibition, and married
(Clara French at Crown Point, Ind., five
'days after the decree was signed.

WITCHCRAFT IN INDIA.
Belief So Strong That Human Sacrifice
Is Still Practiced.
The belief in witcheraft is still fast
rooted in parts of India, and the unfor
tunate persons suspected of the black
art are not uncommonly done to death.
In Bengal last year several cases of
the kind came before the courts. In
the Sonthal Parganahs a woman was
murdered by her mother and brother,
who believed her to be a witch.
In Palamau a man was killed, as the
villagers held that he was a wizard. In
another case two women were murdered
on the bare suspicion that they had
caused the death of three children by
cholera. Human sacrifice also is still
practiced among the uncivilized tribes
of Bengal. 3
In Angul some Khonds sacrificed a girl
as a propiatory offering against cholera,
and in Palamau aboy was enticed into
the jungle and killed as a sacrifice. There
can be little doubt that any relaxation
of vigilance would result in 2 serious in
crease of witch killing and human sacri
fices.—Ailahabad Pioneer.

Court of Appeals Directs Mandate Be
Issued Without Any Further

MOTION FOR NEW TRIAL IS LOST.
ee el e e
CHICAGO, I, Jan. iß.—John R.
Walsh today tock the last stand in his
battle to keep out of prisen and lost.
The United States circuit court of ap
peals denied his petition fled Monday,
asking the court to stay sentence and
ordering the district court to hear argu
ments for a new trial on the ground of
alleged misconduct of jurors in the orig
inal trial.
The court directed that the mandate
to the district court be issued imme
diately.
The government was represented by
District Attorney Edwin W. Sims, Spe
cial District Attorneys J. H. Wilkerson
and I'letcher Dobyns, and Assistant Dis
trict Attorneys HRebert W. -Childs and
Francis G. Hanchott. Attorney John S.
Miller was in charge of the defense.
Court convened with Judges Grosscup,
Baker and Seaman sitting. Mr. Miller
began his arguments on his motion for a
new trial. He recited the incidents
brought out in his petition concerning
the physical conditions of the jurors
whom hLe alleged were unfit to stand the
strain of the counfinement in the jury
room.
Sentenced This Afternoon.
It was expected Mr. Waish would
be sentenced in the district court this
afternoon and be turned over to the
United States Marshal! Hoy.
Mr. Walsh did not appear in court,
but spent the greater part of the morn
ing in his office at the grand central
station. Shortly before the court gave
its decision Mr. Walsh apparently had
been given an intimation of ti}e findings
for he left his office, .jumped into a cab
and was driven off in\the direction of
his home. : i
To Prison Tonight.
United States Marshal L. T. Hoy
announced that Mr. Walsh would be
taken to the federal prison at Leaven

Country.
DELAVAN, Wis., Jan. 18.—[Special.]
—Experts who have seen the new girls’
dormitory at the State Schoo! for Deatf,

it the finest and most convenient among
all the institutions of this kind in the

x_nam_ml traicing school. Tunnels conrnect
it with the other buildings, so there is
no unnecessary exposure to weather, and
the heating and ventilating system is the
most approved. Members of the state
board of control have inspected the new
dormitory and are pleased with the re
sults obtained.

AN AUTHCR'S WQES.
A Former Rootblack, Now a Professor,
Troubled by His Wife.
BERLIN., Jan. 18.—The family woes
of an author have brought him publicity.
Arthur Lindenstead, whose real name is
Wilinski, who has been a bootblack in
New York and a footman in IL.ondon, but
is now a lecturer on art and literature in
the Humboldt academy here, was re
cently arrested. His wife, in a temper,
went to the police and told them her hus
band had evaded the military service
which every German is bound to per
form. He was speedily released on dis
covery that he never was liable to mili
tary service and that if he had been he
was unfitted for it. Peculiarly enough,
Martha Rothe feill in love with him
while attending.one of his lectures. They
married. She found he was in love only
with learning, Luck was all with Wilin
ski until he married Martha Rothe.
When he was a boy of 8 in New York,
where his parents took him, he read good
English literature in the intervals of
blacking shoes. He educated himself,
and acquired intimate knowledge of art
and of several languages. He wrote a
book, which was published and was fair
ly successful. He returned to Germany
in 1897, expecting to teach English, but
was expelled under the mistaken idea
that he fled to America to escape mili
tary service. Wilinski went to I.ondon,
where hie engaged as a footman in order
that he might not starve. Then he re
turned to New York and finally came
here again.
A PARIS SHOP STRIKE. |
\
Brought About by Petty Tyranny In
volving a Peoor Seamstress. |
PARIS, Jan. 18.—Union workers in
a fashionable shop on Rue de la Paix
declare that they are unjustly treated.
When one of the biouse makers was
detected recently working on a gar
ment not intended for sale in the shop,
there was instant inquiry - into : the
matter, and amid the excitement and
pity of her fellows the seamstress was
discharged. A pretty Breton working
girl, however, threw herself dauntless
ly into the breach. She told the pro
prietor that if the girl was doing work
for outside customers it was not at her
own instance, but at that of the wom
an superintendent, who forced many
girls to do this extra sewing by which
she profited. This outburst won the
sympathy of the other girls, who
manifested an intention to stick. The
employver offered them no satisfaction,
so forty girls walked out.
There as yet has been no demon
stration, no offer of help from wealthy
patrons, and it looks as if the girls
may be forced to return to work, as
their places can be easily filled. Sew
ing girls are plentiful in- France.

The German Emperor Courteous to Sec
retary and Mrs. Hitt.
BERLIN, an. 18.—Secretary Hitt of
the American embassy in this ecity, who
has been made minister to Panama, has
taken his departure for his new post. As
a parting tribute, the Emperor did him
the honor to invite him to luncheon at
the palace en famille, the other guests
being the Duchess of Pless and Prof.
Moore. Mrs. Hitt sat at the Emperor’s
right. Mr. Hitt between the Empress
and Princess Victoria. As usual on such
informal oceasions the conversation was
extremely witty.
The Emperor was in high spir
its and cracked his full quota of jokes.
He quizzed Mr. Hitt a bit about his new
appointment, but his felicitations were
cordial, and both he and the Empress ex
pressed the hope that rapid promotion
would attend Mr. Hitt’s diplomatic ca
reer. That night Mr. Hitt was enter
tained at a dinner given by Consul Gen
eral Thackera, and last night Ambassa
dor Hill gave a banquet at the embassy,
in his honor. . §

The town of Baalbec contains some
five thousand inhabitants, about a quar

the Greek Catholic church; it owns foyr
mosques, three churches, six schools, four
monasteries, three hotels, and a Turkish

serious Arabs among the pillars of the
Temple of Bacchus, or surprises a group
of women in shining black beneath the
Arab tower to the southwest of the tem

fairy revels of the white blossoms in the

Never had I understood how exquisite
white can look with gold, fragility with
strength, that which has the peculiar
loveliness that passes with that which
has the peculiar splendor that endures,
till I saw the piled golden stones, col

flowers of Baalbec’s orchards. Baalbe
