A number of gentlemen witnessed. last
evening. by invitation of Mr.. c. Z. Peck,
the operation of the latest electric motor
gotten up by MIR. w. II. Chapman and
Mr.. Peck. 1t is on the same principle rs
the machine heretofore described in these
columns; but in the new machine the
motion is rotary instead of reciprocaling,
and the parts have been lesscned in num-
Der and greatly simplifcd. The motor
shown was about six inches in height by
ten inches long, yet it developed enough
power to drive six and perhaps ten sew
g-machines. 1t is without question a
long way in advance of any motor hith-
erto constructed, and one can readily be-
lieve with its inventors that it is destined
to take the place of them all.

That the death of young William Gift,
son OF John Gift of this place, at Hanni-
bal, Mo-, on the night of the 29th of Sep
TENDER, was a foul and atrocious murder,
there is not a shadow of doubt. He was
raised in this community and bore an ex-
cellent character and was rather of a
quiet and reserved disposition. The Gin
cinnati ENQUIRER Of Sunday last thus
speaks of the outrage:
San atrocious murder was committed
at Hannibal, Mo-, last Saturday night.
A young cigar-maker named William
Gift, who had not been in the city long,
was standing in front OF his hotel with
two companions. The murderer was sit
ting on the steps, and some words en-
sued between him and the trio of friends
He proposed to clean out the whole par
ty, ard suitirg the action of the word
arose and advanced with a pistol. He
struck Gift over the head with the wea-
pom, and twice repeated the blow, re-
marking, "I've q mind to let you have
it." No sooner had he said this than
the pistol was discharged, the bullet en-
tering the left temple and lodging in the
brain. Gift was carried into the hotel
and died in a few minutes. Suspicion
pointed to one Jeff Treadway as the muir
derer,"

The deceased was we'll known to man,

The deceased was well known to many
of our citizens, having emigrated from
Germany to this country in the year
1926. During the last few years he was
in feeble health, but through the kind
attentions of his two daughters-Mrs.
John Faddler and Mrs. Herman Voege
his, and his aged companions atHic-
tions, were greatly lightened. His sons
in-law are deserving OF all praise in their
attentions to the aged parent. His funer-
al services were conducted in presence
of large congregation, by Pastor Baugh-
man, in the Lutheran Church at West
Alexandria, on the 5th inst, of which he
was 4 member for fifty or more years.
During his lifetime he, in his earlier
years, filed various offices of trust. But
his work is now finished and he has gone
to receive his reward. Peace be with
him.

KILLED BY DRINK.
The cleveland Man who Won a Wa.
ger and Lost ais Life.

The Cleveland Herald tells how John
Waffen died from the effects of taking
ffteer glasses of whisky in fifteen min
utes:
A most singular death occurred In
Herrick's block, back of the Bethel,
night before last. John Waffen q Ger
man laborer OH the docks, living in one
of the rooms in that block, vas at a ga
loon kept by one William Duge, on the
corner Of Seneca and Canal streets, talk
ing and chatting with a lot of sailors,
when a wager was made up between
him and the master OF a vessel as to his
ability to stand liquor. For q dollar
Wafen was to drink fifteen glasses Of
whisky in fifteen consecutive minutes.
Waffen accepted the bet. and every
glass drank was checked off as he drank
it. He succeeded in winning the bet,
but refused to drink any
more after that, although he was pressed
to do so. He came back dizzied and
sick from the over dose Of alcohol, and
had hardly gotten into the room before
he went into violent Commissions. His
features were contorted and his whole
frame shuddered involuntarily and his
limbs spasmodically contracted and ex-
tended, as though shocked by an cleo
trio battery. From six. o'clock Monday
evening until 10 o'clock Tuesday norm
ing he remained insensible. DR.. Rus
sell, the district physician, was called Ia.
and on Wednesday evening at z o'clock
afternoon he made his last confession
aoI ~nna.xxnA tho oacrou m ante 70 kho 1u.
ing. He regained consciousness before
he died and related the whole occur
renee. Watson was about Al years. old
and looked younger than most corpses
OF persons of his age. His face had moi
the sickly pallor of the dead, is it lay
sharply defined against the ticking Of the
poor bed. He came from Wizzenberg,
in Mecklenburg Strelitz, about q year
and a half ago, with his wife and
four children, none over g wears
Of age. Since that time one little babe has
been added to the lot. They lived IN
pitiable poverty, their solitary room in
the dark and dingy block being carpet
less and with none but the seamless furn-
iture. On the wall at the head Of the
bed hung q large crucifix, fanked on each
side by o~ld-country sacred pictures IN
gilt paper frames. The family are too
poor even to bury him, and nj one
watched with the dead nor did candle
shed its Pickering light upon the poor
bier. His wife has done washing to M
port the family, as all he earned he
spent in drink, and was ON aspree wher
he made the fatal bet. He had begun il
Saturday and was known to be drink
ing Sunday and during Monday. The
police are looking the matter up, Inc
the guilty parties win be prosecuted for
their share in the mans death. The
coroner's verdict was that the man came
to hisadeath by alcoholism or alchoholic
poisoning.

Pumpkin Pie.

These are the days of that glorious
American institution, pumpkin pie. The
hotel or restaurant pumpkin pie is not
the Simon-pure article. 1t has had
to many foreign airs added to it. 1t may
be good; and it may pass for what it is
intended, but il can't hold q candle to
the pumpkin pie our mothers and grand
mothers made. Just look at the differ
ence it the two brands. Mothers had a
nice short crust with an edge about an
inch deep and In this was a plump meas
ure OF pumpkin pulp" mixed with nice
fresh eggs, milk and just enough spice
to give it flavor. 1t was a picture Of q
blooming, healthy pie. 1t makes a mans
mouth water to think of it. The store
kind of pumpkin pie has a sort of sickly
Eeeond-cousin countenance and is scarce
ly over an inch thick, with q crust OH the
shears to cut it. AS for taste,
a sort Of go-as-you-please flavor between
ian-bark and cinnamon. Then again,
100 store pies will be made out Of an
pie is cut into eight pieces about the

cents each. This brings forty cents for
a pie, or $40 for the product of a pump
kin. That leaves the store-keeper $50.
80 profit on his pumpkin, and as the
crust is thin with no shortening in it,
eighty cents ought to v this cost,
leaving an even $50 profit on the tram
saction. A slice of mothers pumpkin
pie the size of your two hands that's
the regulation cut in homemade pie,
and an inch and q half thick contains
more real pie than a dozen store pies,
and there Is no danger OF trouble from
Indigestion after eating 1t. There should
be some action taken by the Legislature
to prevent the degeneration of this
great American institution-the pump
kin pie. If this is notdone, future gem
erations will read in history of a dish
now so highly priced by patriotic citi-
zens and grieve to think that the build
ing of the pumpkin pie of their fore
father is a lost art.-[Peek's Sun.
