After William Donovan, the Elmira news.
boy, won the six.days' roller-skating race
in Madison Square Garden, his baclSer, Tom
Davis, and his trainer, Jack Smith, thought
they had got prize and they went to work
to help him recover from tho terrible
strain of the 1902 mile race. They wanted
to put him to bed and nurse him, but his
father and his Elmira friends wanted to
give him an ovation, so they took him to
Elmira, where they exhibited him, then to
Hornellsville and noighboring towns. Jack
Smith saw the way things were going aud
telegrnphed to Davis, Come up, they'll
kill the boy" and Davis got to Elmira rs
soon as possible and found the boy sick with
q bad cold. He said to Davis: Don't
leave me. Take me to New York with
you" Davis did so, When they got horo
they went to tho Turf, Field aud Farm,
Office, made the match for May with Skin
ner, the Boston skater, and thon went To the
Putnam House. Donovan sand he was sick
and was put to bed. He had pneumonia
and by great attention was nursed back to
convalescence.
On Wednesday he was we'll enough TO go
to tho window to watch the people going
into the circus opposite. Though the win
dow was closed he caught cold aud COM
planned of pain in his stomach. Acute
pericarditis followed aud he sunk rapidly.
He had no idea of dying, and yesterday
morning talked of the coming race. "I1l
win it," no said, putting out his hands for
Davis and Smith to take them, land then |
can pay you back. You are very kind to
spend all your time with me-" In the after
noon he realized that he was dying. He
took his gold medal from under his pillow
and gave it to Davis, saying; keep this
Tom it's the only thing have to give
you" To Smith he said: "POor Jack
wish had one for you, too" He died early
this morning,
The doctor said the race left his heart in
a very weak condition and made him sus-
eeptible to cold.-[Special to Phila. Times

BETRAYED AND MURDERED.

The fall Of Khatorum was due to
the treachery of trusted Pshas, who
opened the gates and let in the Nah
dis troops. As General Gordon was
leaving the government house he was
stricken down and murdered by an
assassin's dagger. England is certain
ly aroused over this defeat and mas
sacre of her brave General. Now
that the French and Italian govern
ments, as English allies, with armed
fleets, going to occupy certain prom.
lnent points, Carlo, Alexandria
Suakim, Suez, Port Said and Ismalia
this will enable the British troops il
Egypt to proceed forthwith to the
Soudan.
The Arabs, under their black lead
er, Mahdi, are fighting with hero
ism and desperation that excites ad
miration; yet, at the same time there
is no credit due them in takin,
Khatorum. Any fanatical leader
could avail himself the assistance o
traitors.

ELOPED WITH A FARM HAND.

A somewhat new thing in the elope-
ment line is reported from Darling
ton, Montgomery county, Indiana.
On last Wednesday a fellow from
Virginia, known as Maj. Tomlinson,
left with the wife of Harvey Shaver,
prosperous young farmer, living FIVE
miles north of that place. Mr.. Shau-
yer and wife were thought to be hv-
ing happily, with three beautiful lit
tie children. Mr.. Shauver's suspic-
ions were aroused by one of the lit
tie fellows telling him that the Ma
jor, who was a farm hand, kissed ma
and ma kissed Major" Mr.. Shaver
took his wife to task for such action.
She did not deny it, and also stated
that she would kiss him just when
she pleased. Mr. Shaver chastised
her for her conduct, and paid the
Major off, telling him that he would
give him until Wednesday to leave.
This seemed to raise the ire of Mrs.
Shaver, and she quickly gave her
husband to understand that she
would go with the discharged man.
Mr.. Shaver knelt in prayer, and
prayed long and feryently that such
thoughts should not be entertained
by his wife, but his prayers would
not soften or change her heart. Mr..
Shaver gave her all her belongings,
and the baby, a beautiful boy two
years old; he helped her into the
sleigh, tucked the wraps close around
her, and, with tears in his eyes, kiss
ed her and the child goodbye, tell
ing her that he hoped and prayed
she would be satisfied with her i'll
judged undertaking. The couple
stated that they were going to Ore
gon.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND

During the three months just pass
ed Mr.. Cleveland has devoted all the
time he could spare from his unfn-
ished public duties as Governor to
the task of ascertaining the views and
policies of the leading men ofhis par
ty. He has confined himself to no
factions. He has heard all sides. and
the statesmen he has consulted are
precisely those to whose suggestions
it is conceded he ought to listen.
Yet with all this consultation and
interchanging of views, what is the
fact! Within short month of the
inauguration no living soul, except
Mr.. Cleveland himself, knows Of
whom his Cabinet is to'be formed, or
whether he has yet finally determin-
ed on single one of its members.
This may look like political cum
ming. 1t is not. 1t is simply homes
ty of purpose-the result of settled
principle to hold the Presidential Of
fee not as a personal honor, not as a
political power, but as a sacred pub
lie trust. 1t is an evidence of the
judicial cast Of Mr.. Cleveland's mind
He hears all that can be said on all
sides. He weighs words, measures
opinions, examines reasons, sits ar
guments, and will finally decide when

LEGLEss AND WITH ONLY ONE ARM.

The Sheriff of Kendall county ar
rived in Joliet, Ill.,, on the ID inst,
with four prisoners. Among them is
William Russell, aged "a, whom the
Sheriff had to carry into the prison
on his back, as the convict has no
legs and but one arm. Both legs had
been amputated close to the trunk and
the left arm at the shoulder-joint on
account of railroad accident. This
remnant of man was deposited up
on the stone floor of the guardroom
and the Sheriff produced his mitimus,
showing that Russell was sentenced
by Judge Charles Kellum, of York
vile, to be confined in the penitenti-
AIRY for the term of one year at hard
labor. He was convicted of stealing
row boat from a man in Plano and
selling it at Peoria. The services of
an able-bodied convict will be needed
to take care of him while in prison.
