No wonder King Milan wanted to
get out of Belgrade. He was as
much martyr to the dread of assassi-
nation as the Gar of Russia. t is
told that he slept in room with
double doors, iron cased, which he
locked himself, and bolted from the
inside. A powerful mastiif slept at
the foot of his bed, and he kept a
loaded revolver on the table. There
was no chimney place in the room,
lest dynamite should be dropped
down it; and no coal was burned in
any room which he occupied, because
he once saw a nibllstic engine which
looked outwardly like lump of coal
He was so afraid of poison that he al
WAYS had the wine he drank uncorked
before him. His coffee was always
made in his presence with a spirit OF
wine apparatus, and he would never
when eating alone, touch a made
dish, but only plain toast or boiled
egg. Suspicious of bread, he ate
brown bread biscuits of English
make, Of which there are always ;
tinful in his study.

WILLARD WINS.

The last hour of business on the
New York exchange the other day
marked the climax of one of the most
exciting chapters of Wall street his
tory and closed the fiercest fight that
has ever been known on the floor of
the exchange. The price for which
battle was fought was for the control
of the Oregon & Transcontinental
company, corporation with capital
of s40,000,000, and holding control
of the most important railways in the
Pacific Northwest. A control of the
company is now held by Henry Vii
lard, and associated with him are
magnates Of the Standard company,
Baron B!eichroder, Bismarck's finan-
cial agent, Edward T. Abbott, John
Trevor, w. l.. Colby and some of the
largest bankers in the city. This ag-
gregation of capital the enemies of
Willard worked hard against. The
opposition included all the big insid-
ers in the Union Pacific road --Chas.
Francis Adams, Sidney Dillon, Fred
Ames, Elijah Smith and others equal
ly as prominent. Elijah Smith had
charge of the campaign to bust Viii
lard and proposed to take his place
as he did once before, when Willard
went down with the crash following
the driving Of the golden spike on
the Northern Pacific.
For long time both were active
in quietly accumulatlng stock, but it
was not until the last day on which
to register stock to vote at the com
ing election, that the supreme effort
was made.
The stock moved up from $37 per
share to 1914 so per share before ex-
change closed. From 40 to As the
stock moved up l per cent. at time
Then it jumped five per cent. on q
single transaction, and after moving
up one per cent. made jump of nine
per cent. to sixty. 1t soon sold for
sixty-four and one-eighth, the high
est point reached in six years. AL
the time the trading was marked by
intense excitement and the day will
never be forgotten by those who
took part in the dealings. After the
registry books were closed Willard
met Smith and said:
81 have won. | have POI ,00(
shares locked up in my boxes"
AS the capital stock of the compa
ny Is 100000 shares, this would give
Wizards party 1000 shares the ma
jority, but Smith would not ADM
that he was defeated, although he die
not claim victory.

Verify this is an age of wonders.
A new scheme of transportation is
now to be introduced between New
York and Boston, whereby, it is
stated, large packages of mail, and
even cars containing passengers, can
be whisked from one place to anoth-
er, a distance of $50 miles, in less
than an hour. An experiment with a
new machine will be held in Boston
IN the presence of many scientists,
including Prof. Dolbear, of Tufts
college, who has announced that he
is thoroughly satisfied of the success
of the system. The machine consists
of a magnetic car hanging from a
single rail, when it follows a streak
OF electricity with one horse power.
1T is said that one ton can be thus
transported ,440 miles a day.

MormOnism I'm the Southern states.
Southern Utah Times


Next to Europe, the Southern
States of the Union are the favorite
field for Mormon PROSECUTING. 1t is
the mountain districts of the South
that are selected generally for the
work. The missionary labors are
carried on mostly in the States of
North and South Carolina, Georgia,
Alabama, Arkansas and Tennessee.
The two Virginias and Maryland
have also been invaded to a consid-
cradle extent by the Mormon elders.
They have likewise made one or two
attempts in Kentucky, but their eff
forts were attended with such dis
enlargement there that they aban-
doned them. The Blue Grass region
has for some reason a prejudice
against more than one wife at time.
In the States mentioned the Nor
mons have now lis missionaries ac-
lively at work. Their converts in
the past eight years have numbered
several thousands. About half of
these have gone to Utah. Ten thou
sand families in the South have been
affected more or less by Mormonism.
The first real missionary work of
the Mormons anywhere began in 1887,
in England. 1t was not until few
years before the civil war that the
PROSECUTING in the South began. 1t
tlourished from the first, but was in
terrupted by the war. Since 1875 it
has progressed more rapidly than ev-
err. The Latter Day SAINTS have now
missionaries in Asia, Australia and
even in the Samoan islands.
Formerly the elders worked but
little among the negroes of the South.
But of late the exodus of the colored
population from certain localities,
and their migration westward, is said
to be due to their conversion to Nor
monism. One thing is certain: Both
Mormon missionaries and converts
know how to hold their tongues.
Many proselytes are obtained from
the women and girls of the mountain
districts. For this reason violent OPP
position has been excited to the ell.
ders among Southern young men
They have formed a secret society
called the "Friends of Right" tc
work against the Mormon missiona,

befell his friend, Rev. Edward Ev-

was making one of his long pedestrian
tours through a rural region, and be-
came very hungry. Calling at the
door of farm house, he asked the
woman if she could let him have
something to eat. She looked over
his tall, robust figure, and then an
swered in a slightly contemptuous
tone: eyes, I'll give you something
to eat; but a man as big and strong

There is a man in Milwaukee who
is preparing for something that is ev-
en- more terrible than death --insani-
ty. He will be violently insane in a
few weeks, and he knows it. Some
time ago his skull was fractured; a
grlstle is fast forming about the
cracked edges, which will surely
press upon the brain and make him a
maniac. He talks calmly and ration
ally of his approaching fate, and
spends every moment of his brief
term of sanity in making provision
for his family when he shall no
longer be able to care for them. 1t
is a situation worthy the pen of a
novelist like Daudet.
