"rHERE's A WOMAN IN IT."
A Unique and Interesting Lecture by
Prof W. 4. Wiley.

There Was Woman In It," and in
fact good many OF them in the yestry
Of the Thomson NJ. h. church last eve
ming to listen to lecture by Prof. w.
=. Wiley, of the State University, on
the above rather unique and expectant
subject. The title Of this lecture 50
frequently appears in the newspaper
headlines over various social and busi-
ness uniquitieS that the audience In the
early evening was little nervous and
fidgety as to what the distinguished
speaker might ascribe to femininlty.
They expected, individually and collec-
lively, to be all flying of at tangent.
But not so. Before the lecture was far
advanced these ideas were quickly dis
pelled. and the audience settled down
into quiet and earnest appreciation OF
the literary treat.
While the opening part OF the lecture
appeared to have little connection with
the subject in hand, ii was interesting
from the fine word pictures OF animals
which II contained, brought up In the
discussion Of evolution and cultivation.
The speaker said that in nine cases out
Of ten where a newspaper says There's 5
woman in it," there Is woman In II.
But leaving sensations aside, there is
another side to the influence Of woman.
She has been 1.-THE power behind the
throne" in all that has made men and
nations great. strong and mighty. The
speaker then referred To the various
epochs IN the history Of the world u
show that woman had effected the
crises OF almost all nations, be-
ginning with Adam and Eve Ia the
Garden Of Eden, and following it ul
all through the ages to the recent up
setting Of ireland through the influence
OF that enchantress Mrs. OShea. The
lecture was well supplied with facts and
figures, and also considerable pleas
antry. and 1t was decidedly Interesting
and TO the feminine section of the
audience, doubtless conSollng also.

FOX PETTY THEFrS.
a Kansas Farmer Deliberately Murdered
by White Caps.

TOPEKA, KAS., March 27.-GOvernOr
Humphrey has offered reward OF 500
for the arrest and conviction OF each OF
the murdarers of Thomas Duncan, set
tier living in Cheyenne county dug
out.
The murder was committed March l6,
| but the letter of the Prosecuting At
torney 10 the Governor gave the first de-
tails and confirmed the many stories OF
White Cap ontrages which have recently
come from the extreme northwestern
part Of the State.
For some weeks past there have been
rumors in Topeka OF White Cap punish
ments in the sparSely settled outlying
counties Of the State, but they have
lacked official confirmation, and no fur
ther attention was paid them. Accord
ing To the Prosecuting Attorneys letter,
Duncan was accused Of pilfering grain
in small quantities from his neighbors,
IN order to get sufficient amount Of
seed to plant his spring crops
Two days before the killing occurred
one of the neighbOrs positively identi-
fed Duncan as he was making his way
from grain bin. The neighbors We're
informed, and. about S o'clock on the
evening Of March l6 about twenty men,
with masks, rode up to Duncan's house
and were met at the door by his wife.
The victim had heard them coming, and
had crawed into storage room leading
from his seed house. The White Caps
started to raze the house, and Duncan
announced that he would come out.
He started to go into his yard, when
fire was opened on him. One bullet
pierced his heart and another his right
side. The men rode off, leaving their
victim lying across the threshold Of his
own hOuse.

COKE CONFLICT.
A VERY QUIET DAY IN TEE COSNgLLSyILLE

Big Meeting Of Strikers is to bs
Held at Scottdas.

PrrTsBURG, PA, March 27.-Alfair!
In the coke region were quiet to-day
though the operators are gaining
steadily In spite Of the obstinacy OF the
men. Two new plants Of the II. c
Frick Company were started to-day
They now have fires In round dozer
OF their large plants, and expect other:
TO start tomorrow. Ii is stated a gen
eral movement will be made by the
Stewart, Cambria, Hostetter, Hecla,
Cochran, and in fact, all Independent
plants, large and small, to follow the
lead Of the Frick Company and resume
work next week.
Labor officials say the few men who
have gone TO work have done so under 4
false impression, and will all come out
when the situation is explained to them.
They will hold general mass meeting
in ScOttdale tomorrow, which 10000
miners are expected TO attend.
Manager Lynch, OF the Frick Compa-
ny, said to-day that their works must
positively be operated on the sliding
scale basis, and though former employees
will not be Disseminated against
they must return to work, or other men
will be secured. Should the strikers
prove obstinate, trouble will certainly
ensue, as this statement simply means
that men will be imported and the strik-
ers will rise in arms against such a
move. All is quiet at the LeiSenring
and Morewood plants to-day. 1t is
thought that this is owing to the pacific
advice OF the labor leaders, though a
strong guard Of deputies about both
works certainly had a soothing effect

Explosion in Church.

DETROIT, March 27.-A large congre-
CATION, composed mainly OF women, was
gathered yesterday in st. JoSeph'S, a
large stone Catholic church, ut the cor
ner OF Orleans and Jay streets, when a
loud explosion occurred and dust arose
in clouds from the hot air registers.
The women ran Shrieking for the
doors, pulling, hauling and scratching
one another in their eagerness to eS'
cape. One aged woman, Mrs. Weithoh,
was knocked down and one OF her legs
broken by the trampling Of the excited
throng. As she is over 20 years old il
is hardly probable that she will recover.
II is supposed that the high wind blew
out number of gas jets, and that gas
accumulated and the explosion resulted.
The building was not damaged.

The phosphate excitement in the
South is shown by the fact that 81 new
companies were organized during the
quarter, 10 Of which were formed in
Florida The extraordinary activity ln
railroad building in the South is eyi-
denced by the fact that during the three
months 90 new railroad companies were

South Carolina and II in Tennessee.
The TrddcSmGn says that the present
indications point to continued activity
in the Southern States in all industrial
branches, and the ensuing year gives
more fattering promise OF substantial
in manufacturing growth
than any previous year, a most crafty
ing feature Of this being the diversified
character Of the new Industries.

SOUTHERN RAILROAD TROUBLES.
A Big strike OF Trainmen Imminent-Sar-
gent Called to Atlanta.

ATLANTA, GA, March PA big
strike is imminent on the East TeuneS-
see, Virginia and Georgia Railroad.
The brakemen and iircmen, who think
they have been unjuSt'y Disseminated
against in the matter Of wages say the
standard wages throughout the country
is two-thirds Of the rates paid to engi-
neers and conductors, and that is what
they ask for.
A grievance committee called on Su-
perintendent Baupre yesterday and he
told the men that he had been trying
to make the run from Atlanta to Chatta-
noogo a l3-hour run, under which the
pay would be about as much As the
other roads pay. The men claim this
cannot be done The road is In such
shape at present, the men say, with the
yards at all main points full Of cars,
that n strike would completely block it
and cause great loss.
Grand Master Sargent, OF the Broth
erhood OF Locomotive Firemen, has
been called TO Atlanta. The engineers
on the Marietta and Northern Georgia
are on a strike. The local firemen ofli-
cialS are afraid complications will eX-
tend the strike to the Western Atlantic,
and they want their chief executive
officer on the ground.

BELFAST, March 27.-A terrible sceu-
occurred last night during the progrcs.
OF charity bail, which was given 40
Stragaddy, County Donegal. At the
height OF the festivities an insane man
suddenly made his appearance, armed
with a double barrellcd shotgun. BE-
fore his intentions were divided or be-
fore he could be- di>armcd. the madman
fired both barrels of his gun among the
dancers. One young girl was shot in
the back, and she was 80 dangerously
wounded that she was removed from
the ballroom in a dying condition. The
madman, after dischargiug his shotgun,
was seized by some OF the gentlemen
present and was handed over % the poo
lice.
Despite all efforts To distinguish the
fire, the ilames spread rapidly aud the
building was soon all abiazc. The
court house, including the municipal
council chamber and the city and
county Offices were totally destroyed
Some Of the archives were saved but
many documents, some OF them dating
back for centuries, were destroyed.
The cause Of the lire is attributed %
defective ilue, which iguited the wood
work of the room. The trial which
was disturbed will be- resumed at q later
date.

| first ever captured or ever heard Of
/ The little wriggler is imprisoned on the
glass slides OF DR.. Gentry'S big micro
scope, and was to-day carefully inspect
ed by many scientific eye. Ever since
| the grip made its appearance year
ago, the Doctor said to-day, he has been
on still hunt for the microbes II any
existed He found that "a years ago,
and again 10 years ago Ia grippe was
epidemic among human beings, and l.
years ago it attacked horses, causing
the still remembered "epizoouc." Ow-
ing 10 the recurrence OF the disease
DR. Gentry was inclined TO believe
that the earth, at such intervals, passed
through a stretch Of space impregnated
with what astronomers call ''Star dust.
Four days ago 10 occurred 10 him that
he might trap some Of .he dust, or mi
crObeS, or whatever il was. Carefully
polishing blank slide he took il out
doors and passed it through the air.
Placing the slide under his microscope,
which magnideS /, l7O times, he counted
seven heretofore unidentified microbes
in the field OF the instrument. The
creatures were very lively, aud seemed
90 float or swim upward toward the
glass. Before the Doctor could secure
the microbes they had disappeared.
The next day, with the Rev. DR..
HiggS, Of the Rogers Park Methodist
Church, DR.. Gentry tried again and
found more Again they escaped, but
by using micro-glaSSeS he secured them
the next time and had them mounted
for the microscope. His next step was
90 procure some mucuS from patient
Inflicted with Ia grippe. A neighbor,
DR.. w. j. Jefferson, furnished it, and to
the delight of DR.. Gentry the same sort
OF microbes were found in the mucuS
that had been caught in the air, ideuti
cal IN every respect.
The grip microbes aS described by
Dr. Gentry, are generally OF round
form, varying occasionally in outline
but always distinctly marked By a
series OF seven lines surrounding them.
Radiating from these lines are other
lines which in the magntied image, re-
sembeS fine, irregular hairs. DR..
Geutry'S entire time to-day was occu-
pied i'm exhibiting the microbes to
brother physicians, and in beginning a
technical account OF the discovery for

Two Years Old.

PARIS. Tex, March e1 Since th"
capture OF Bill Hudgln and most of tie
members Of his gang, February o.. oni-
GERS have secured Information that
shows Hudgius' connection with 40
least four murder, that have heretofore
remained a mystery.
One Of those was the shooting from
ambush Of Aleck Handiiu, thirty miles
west Of Purcell, !. T., on July @. 1850.
and FOR which TWO men named Samuel
and Ramie were arrested but -ubse-
quently released FOR want oi evidence.
Soon after the opening Of Oklahoma
an old German and his s01 were called
out Of their cabin and shot down. and
the double murderer was never cap
tured. A year or so ago the Office ~ the
santa Fe Railroad al Horton, boz the
Cherokee strip, was entered the agent
shot, and the station robbed.
Evidence is now accommodating that
will prove that Hudgin, committed lIl
these murders, aud the Others haVe been
partially Developed. Hudg.n, b. only t'

THE USUAL PLOT.
The Captured Counterfeiters Said to Have
Been Allies of Nihilists.

LONDON, March 97.-The capture OF
a gang Of counterfeiters at Dobra, in
Posen, will probably lead to the un-
earthing Of an extensive Nihilistic plot.
The gang were betrayed by Il woman,
a German, who appears to have been a
mistress OF the chief counterfeiter, a
Russian, and who had been discarded,
he supposing that she knew nothing
about his criminality, of which, how
ever, she was fully aware.
The counterfeiterS were taken by sur
prise and made a most desperate effort
to escape. AT first they almost sue
ceeded in overpowering the police, but
the arrival OF a small reinforcement
turned the scale and the gang were COM
PEELED to surrended. The counterfeit
money was intended for circulation in
Russia, and the police believe that the
counterfeiters den was really a bank
from which the Nihilists derived the
wherewithal to operate against the Rus
sian Government. The capture has ex-
cited lively interest in st. Petersburg as
well as Berlin.
