Wnen the bandits made their recent
raid in Minnesota on the Mortified
Bank they captured near Mankato an
inofiensive German named Dunning.
After be had piloted them to road way
which they wished to find, they calmly
debated the question whether they should
permit him to go on his way or shoot
him on the spot. After the question had
been discussed quite freely ballot was
taken, and the Germans life was saved
by the vote of Charley Pitts, the robber
who was subsequently killed near Made-
liza. Dnnning WAS compelled to take an
oath that he would never speak of his
experience TO human being. Never
was mortal man 30 dreadfnlly scared! He
could not shake off the panic terror. He
moped about for a few weeks after the
memorable interview, and WAS in mo.

Child Burned to Death.

Day before yesterday two year old
child of Isaac Showalter, of Jackson
township, was burned to death under
the following circumstances: It seems

other aged four years at home alone,

errand. During the mothers absence a
spark few out Of the stove and lighting
on the child's dress ignited it. The
child was soon enveloped in flames. The
other child did what it could to put out
the fire, but being SO small could do bu
little. The. father Of the children re
turned short time before the mother
and found the child in the agonies o
death. Everything was done that coulc

without avail. 1t died in about fou
hours from the time the accident hap

For the Press
Centennial Notes.

The readers Of the Press must not ex-
pect me to speak of many things in brief
articles like these; for it has been esii-
mated that to examine every article in
the great Exposition, giving one minute
to each would require three years oftime.

entered the Main Building from the
West, found myself in the midst of
China, which with India and Japan, haJ
a wonderful display of fancy work. the
most remarkable OF which is the exhibit
Of fine Porcelain vases, from few inch

Japan exhibits bcdsiead. beautifully
carved from solid wood, which it took
twenty FIVE men five years To make.

with an uprigh, center and frame work
OF red antique marble, guilt and oxy-
dized bronze, with cushion trimmings oI
the finest silk and satin, valued at ten
thonsand dollars.
Rus.ia, though shaking her name. like
an angry lion, at Turkey, has had the
ability and good taste to make splendid
and extensive display of useful work o.
all kinds. Her exhibit of cloths and
Cashmeres, and fine wooden goods of al
kinds, was wonderful, both in quality
and quantity.
In the southeast corner of this build
ing we found the American book de
partment, with books beautifully ar
ranged in large upright show cases
Prominent among these was the exhibi
of the American Bible Society, in con
