Buried AIlva IN a wen.

BROOKLYN, Aug 2T--Andrew Philler, a
lsborer, aged 34 years, who lived at No.
l80 Meserole street, met his death in a
shocking manner. He was buried alive in
a we'll under twenty-five feet Of earth, and
although hundreds of people were at work
Immediately after trying to ressue him,
their efforts were without SUCCESS. He
was dead, and when discovered was a
bruised and almost shapeless mass of hu-
manity Whether he lived through some
of the hours which he passed under the
ground and slowly strangled, or whether
he died Immediately after the earth caved
in on him, cannot be determined until the
autopsy is performed.

MR.. Powderly's Bitter Words.
"There is an organization OF labor with
it's headquarters in Cleveland It's chief
Is r. M. Arthur. (Hisses.) II contains men
who will stoop TO take the place of a broth
er man. This is what the Brotherhood Of
Locomotive Engineers have done with the
consent OF Arthur. The brotherhood Is
good, but 1t has a bad chief II was all
arranged for Arthur TO be hidden in
Cleveland while Depew was In Europe
No one can get at them.
A Slap at Our Chnuncey.n
''The people Of this land don't want a
coward for president, a man who runs
away when there is fight ahead. The
battle is a strike of the people and must be
fought at the polls. The state board Of
arbitration are fishing In the Adirondacks
instead Of attending to their business"
Endorsed by President Gompers.

is an example of the regular business
which Mr.. Webb claims the company is
doing. He was told in Albany that $50

SYRACUSE, N. T., Oct. 1.-THE announce
ment came from New Orleans this after
noon that the engagement Of Alfred Wilkin-
son, Of this city, and Miss Winnie Davis, Of
Beauvoir, had been broken, caused much
comment and surprise here. The nuptials
had bean looked forward to with great
deal Of interest. When the engagement
was first announced the wedding was put
down to take place last month. In July
came the announcement that it had been
postponed until next June ut the
request of Mrs. Davis 1T is now believed
that the engagement was broken at that
time, and that the matter has been kept
quiet until now. When your correspondent
called at the home of the Wilkinsons this
afternoon he was told that Mr.. Wilkinson
was out Of town. Miss Rebecca Wilkin-
son was seen and asked il there was any
truth in the report. She replied: ''That Is
entirely private matter, it is nothing for
the public to know about anyway"
Miss Wilkinson declined to deny or
affirm the report about the engagement be-

nome Miss Davis was guest when she first
met Mr.. wilkinson. said that he had no

that the engagement had been broken, but
that he did not believe il was true.

am interested in an experiment making
by one Of my friends, whose dwelling house
offers fne example of the decorative
growth Of the 90 called Japanese ivy, With
which it 10 profusely covered, says writer
in the Boston Post. This vine. he finds, y
favored by tho English sparrows ~ lodg-
ing, and the awakening Of these birds in the
foliage beneath his window at an hour Of
the morning which he considers inapproprt-
ate for his own rising has caused him much
annoyance. His first device to rid himself
of the disturbance was to fasten q string to
the vine, which, passing into his
window. he would pull with VIC
lence before retiring for the night,
shaking OF the sparrows and dis
persing them. He finds, however, that this
relief il temporary and ineffective, the birds
returning to their haunt during the night
and making their presence evident at the
usual early hour Of the morning. He is
now hesitating whether to arrange an agita-
tor to be operated by some constant power,
probably an electric motor or asgas engine
which shall keep the roostinR place oontin-
ually stirred, or to attach his telephone to
the spot in the expectation that the ring

tive in disturbing the sparrows o. he tells
me he has found it in his own case.
