woman with faded look got off the train,
and, leading her two children, walked
YEARLY down Main street. Her destitute
appearance attracted attention, and, upon
inquiry, she was found to be Mrs Bremen.
She had gone from her home in Indiana to
Los Vegas, N. NJ. and back to Wichita in
search Of her husband. Her money be-
coming exhausted, she and her children
had been for several days with scarcely any

husband, who is an aucIioneer here, was

Downs, former resident of the same town
as the BrennerS. her husband having been
killed by railroad accident last winter.
Bremen had generously taken the place
in the widows heart occupied by his
deceased townsman. The truth flashed
upon the poor, deserted wife. Her in
quiry for him was met in part by an evasive
answer. but she, refusing to leave, her hus-
band came into the room. but turned in
disdain from her pleadings for him to come
home with her and his children. In des-
peration she spoke bitterly of the woman
with whom she was living and the latter,
considering the remarks insulting. sprang
upon her with the fury of tigress,
knocking her to the floor and kicking her
in the face and body until dragged away

ABBE LIsZT DEAD.

After n Ling ering Illness the Great
Composer Passes Away at Bay
Ieuth.
BAYREUTH, Aug. 1.-Abbe List died at
midnight last night.
Franz List was born at Raiding, near Oden-
burg Hungary, Oct %, 1911, and at years
of age manifested such an extraordinary ap-
titude for music that his father, himself
musician, caused him to be carefully in
structed on the piano. AT concert per-
Torrance in Presburg at years OF age he
attracted the attention of some hungarian
nobiemen, who insisted on contributing to
his musical education. He received lnstruc-
ton from Karl CZerny and Saiierl at Vienna
and appeared in concerts in Vienna, Munich
and elsewhere with great success. At IL
years of age he went to Paris and was IN
structed in counterpart by Reicha and stu
diously practiced the piano many hours
day, and finished his musical education when
IS years old. Under the guidance of his
father he achieved success in concert tours

of no merit except being written by boy.
In 1887 his father died, and for four years ne
abandoned himself to melancholy during
which time he embraced the different doc
trines of the ST. Simonians, Lamennais, Vic
tor Hugo and George Sand. He was aroused
rom lethergy by Paganinis appearance In
Paris in 1881, and from that time followed
his profession, of pianist, composer and
writer OF musical literature. In 1917 he be-
came conductor of the court concerts OF the
duke of Weimar. and there introduced to pub
lie notice Richard Wagner. He gave free in
struction to young pianists, giving private
performances for their benefit. In 1870 he
was conductor of the Beethoven festival at
Weimar. He stands as composer at
the head of the ''prodigious'' school,
exceeding in the production OF
difficult and novel effects. His works
number several hundred. He was well known
as roue, and his iptrigues and escepades
were numerous. He took church orders in
1865, as it was said, to avoid being compelled
by law to marry woman he had ruined. He
has since been known as Abbe List.

KNIGHTS OF LABOR.
They Hold an Immense Mass Meet
ing at Union Square.


NEW YORK, July 31.-The mass meet
ing of the district assembly No. 40 of the
Knights of Labor at Union Square tonight
was tremendous success. fully 20, 900 peo-
pie being present. Many persons estimated
the crowd at over SO, ZOO. The park COM
missioners would not allow the erection of
stands for the speakers so three trucks
were used and speaking was carried on
from them simultaneously. One truck was
in front of the reviewing stand and the
Others were at Broadway and Fourth Az
enue respectively. The speaking began at
s O'Clock and lasted for over two hours. In
one or two cases the speaker held forth first
at one stand and then at one of the Others
but in general different trucks were loaded
with independent bands of orators.
The speakers were the local leaders of the
knights. No attempt was made to have
any one particularly prominent man who
should occupy the greater portion of the
evening. but it was rather an experience
meeting, in which short addresses were in
order, and no elaborate addresses were at
tempted. At the central stand the meeting
was called to order by John O'Brien of
Brooklyn, and he was followed by Messrs.
Archibald. Mcguire. O'Reilly, Duncan and
Betty. Among those who spoke at the
other stands were Tom Ford. William
Wallace and James Carnie. While these
gentlemen used great diversity of illustra-
ton and even of theme, the one subject
running through all the addresses was the
idea of making protest against the per-
secutien of the workingmen for using
the boycott and of protest against the de-
nuneiatlon current in the public press and
also to cement the Knights for political
action at an early day. All the speakers
without exception referred in disparaging
terms to the newspapers for the course gem
orally pursued with reference to the boy
colt, and they all urged the perfecting Of
political organization, by which their power
might be made manifest The. line was
drawn, however, between peaceful and
violent organization, and although in the
heat and vehemencc of their outcry they
frequently gave utteranee to rather explo-
sive sentiments, they never failed to correct
themselves if any of the more fiery of their
auditors seemed inclined to put an anarchi-
cal construction upon their expressions.

WASHINGTON. July 31.-There will be
general bolt of officials from Washington as

will remain here perhaps a week or ten
days after congress goes away. He ex-
poets to leave Washington in the neighbor-
hood of the 10th or 18th of August. His
present intention is to remain away one
month. He will devote all his time to
hunting and fishing in the Adirondacks. 1t
is understood that his wife is anxious to
take week or two for some of the Eastern
watering places. The president hates
crowded place at any time and it is very
doubtful whether she will be able to per-
suade him to take any time of his vaca-
ton away from the Adirondack country.
Mr.. Bayard intends to 60 home to his
place in Delaware and remain quietly there
for short vacation. He may possibly visit
some of the New Jersey coast places. dr.
Endicott will go home to Massachusetts,,
where he expects to remain until the middle
of September at any rate. He may come
back and forth, but he does not intend to
have his family in Washington before the
LIST OF October. Mr.. Whitney intends to 60
to Lenox. Mass. the very day after con-
gress adjnurns. Mes. Whitney expects to
remain there with her children until the
middle of October add perhaps the 1st of
November. Mr.. Whitney expects to be
away for month, and Mrs. Whitney said
that on her going away she expected to de-
vote her entire summer to her children.
She had hardly been able to see them dur
ing the winter season, and expected to re-
new her acquaintance with them this sum-
mer, and she will keep away from all the
watering places and will stay very quietly
at her place in Lenox. Mr.. Farchild will
remain at the treasury. He may take oc-
casionaI short trips, but will probably stay
at his desk pretty closely until the 1st
OF October, when it is expected Mr. Man

Pardon All Criminals Then.

The pardon of the younger boys is again
preached, and this time ex-Gov. Marshall
endorses the movement. If there is any
reason why those. cut-throats should again be
turned loose upon society, what reason can
there be for not turning out all the other
criminals of the penitentiary to prey upon
decent people. The government does not
hang or imprison men for the love of punish
ing them, but to protect society from their
murderous and thieving hands; and nothing
but a maudlin sentimentality, worked up hy
shrewd friends and sympathizers, can give so
foolish move any Character whatever
Gov. Marshall ought TO have more sympathy
for society than these cut-throats.
