l.12o feet above the ground, higher than
ever flags have waved before. it is to bc
done during the worlds fair from the
American tower that viii 0utililfcl Paris.
The builder viii be andrew Carnegie of
Plttsburg. Over 2J,OOO people can be
accommodated in the tower at one time
ana two elevators IRE to start from the
ground and run moro than 1000 feet up
without cha"gc or stop directly at the
lookout landing. The width on the level
is 40 feet in each direction.
After a long and careful study the de
signs have been completed by George s.
Morrison of this city. He estimates the
earning capacity will be nearly four
times that of the Eitfcl tower. The total
cost will be about 1l,5OO.0OO. The cost
of the Eiifcl tower was a little less than
Sl.1O0.OOO. The difference is in the
greater simplicity of the design of the
american tower.

Mrs. Thurman Dead,

CoLUMBUs, Ohio, Oct. 17.-Mrs. Thur
man, wife of Judge Allen G. Thurman,
died at 4 p. m. The condition of Mrs.
Thurman changed for the worst last
night. During most of the past week
she had been in an unconscious state,
rallying occasionally. For some time
past there has been but little hope en-
tertained of her recovery. She was a
victim of la grippe during the winter
and never recovered from the attack.
Advanced age prevented her from re-
gaining her accustomed strength. She
was married to Judge Thurman in No
vember, 1874, and has been his almost
constant companion and helpmate since
during his long professional and public
career. Judge Thurman is much en-
feebled and broken down and it is the
opinion of those who know him best and
understand his condition that he will
not long survive the death of his wife.

sauite i'm Chill,

SANTIAGO, Oct. 1.-THE anti-Ameri-
can feeling, which is very pronounced,
reached a climax last night in the streets
Of Valparaiso. A number of sailors of
the United States steamer Baltimore.
now in that port, were walking along the
street when they were confronted by
some sailors of a Chilian man.of war.
Some words passed when a fierce fight
followed.
There was evidently bad blood on both
sides and it only needed Il pretext TO
bring on a conflict. Both parties were
armed with knives and pistols which
were freely used during the squabblc.
When the cOmbatants were separated bv
the police and by ISLANDERS it was found
that one of the Baltimore sailors had
been killed and five others seriously
wounded. Several of the Chi!ians were
also badly nurt. This was the first
time the Baltimore sailors had been
ashore tor a month. The Intendcntc of
the city had assured Captain Schley
Of the Baltimore that his
sailors would be perfectly safe on
Chilian soil. Feeling today between
Americans and Chilians is very strong.
Several additional fights occurred today
among sailors but they were not SO
serious as that OF yesterday.
The dead sailor OF the Baltimore will
be buried tomorrow. An armed force
will be landed from the Baltimore in or
der to furnish a military guard OF honor
for the occasion. Trouble is feared as it
will be Sunday and election day. The
Chilian officials are alive to the gravity
Of the occasion and have again prom
jsed to protect Americans from assault
under all circumstances.

A Sensational Execution.

REDWOOD FALLS, Mimi, Oct. 16.-
Gentlemen: l do not need to ask what
you are here for. ! realize that you
know that it is an unfortunate thing to
see e poor man swing by the neck. 1t is
not the strong arm of God who does
this, but the arm of the law. But take
my word for it, some of the faces which
are before me will yet see the day when
l shall be declared innocent" Then in
passionate language William Rose gave
utterance to these words: 81 believe |
know the man who killed Lufkin. 1t
was Eli Slower. Watch that old man
Slower. and see if my words don't come
true. Now. gentlemen, good bye"
The statements printed above were the
last ever uttered by William Rose, who
was executed at 5 o'clock this morning
for the murder of Moses l.. Lufkin on
the evening of Aug. 81, 1888. Rose
walked to the scLffold with a firm step.
The black cap was adjusted at 400 a. m.
and from underneath the firm voice Of
the prisoner again echoed through the
inclosure: "Good-bye, all" The trap
was sprung at 4'53, and as the form dis
appeared through the opening in the
platform there was a sharp crash and
the body descended to the space below.
The rope had parted three feet above the
neck of the prisoner and he lay C
scious on the ground below. After
a moment of awful silence the
sheriff and his deputies hastily de-
sccnded and picking up the limp body
him above and adjusted another
moose about his neck. With his body
held in position over the trap the stays
were again loosencd at 1856 and a
fall of six feet was given. This time the
stood the strain and after it was
extended the body swung half around
and then for nearly a minute remained
m%otionless. The knees were then drawn
up and there was a movement about the
shoulders showing that an effort of
was being made. Then all
was again still and in nine minutes Will
liam Rose was pronounced dead and the
of Il knife lowered his body to the
ground.

24th days of April, 1891, to propose a
4 plan by which the state OF Kansas can
make an exhibit at the Worlds Column

detailed statement OF the methods
idopted and the measures suggested to
secure such exhibit The convention
wisely determined that the sum of
100000 was necessary TO make such a
display OF our resources and production
rs will be creditable to our state. To
raise this sum of money, it was deter
mined that each county, and each rail-
road company operating line within
this state, should be called upon TO pay
such portion of the sum OF 100000 as
the assessed value of the property OF
each county or railroad company bears

The PI ess aud the President.

Texas gave President Harrison a
genuine American reception. II is un-
officially stated that the executive is
not in sympathy with General Sheri-
dams statements relative to the Lone
Star commonwealth Bee.
The president and his party enjoyed
a genuine ovation at Chattanooga. His
utterances on such occasions are always
sensible, graceful and approximate. His
references to the war and its results
to the Chattanooga OF 1864 and the Chat
tanoga of lS9l-were particularly we'll
chosen and well received. There had
been two conquests, he said, one with
the arm and the other with peace, and
the last is greater than the first. There
was going on a "uniicatlon by COM
merce" that will in time cease all differ
ances and make us in sentiment as in
community of interest, one people,
Washington Post.
President Harrison is undoubtedly
strengthing himself before the people
by his Southern speeches. His argu-
ments in favor of government aid for
steamship lines are irrefragable, and
plainly make deep impression upon
his audiances. That was a peculiarly
happy illustration in which he compar-
ed the subsidy system to the modern
plan OF drumming" for business. The
United States is in just such position,
he said, as an old fogy merchant would
be who would refuse to send out agents,
prefering to wait for business TO come
to his door. This strikes the nail
sauarely on the head and it will be diff
cult for the opposition to tighten the ef-
feet of the blow.-Salt Lake Times.
