MURDER WILL OUT.
Confession of Crime Committed sixtean
Years Ago.


ALPENA, MIcH., Aug. 1.-Sixteen Years aoo
Albert Moltor, known as the king of Presoue
Isle County, and bis clerk, Edward Sullivan.
were mysteriously assassinated in Molitor's Of
flee. The trouble was supposed to have
arisen from the arbitrary manner in which
Molitor conducted his Office as county treas
nrer. AT the time OF the murder William
Repke,a well-to-do farmer of Rogers City, was
suspected OF the crime, but evidence to CON
yict was lacking and he was never arrested.
Thursday night, when the story of the shoot
ing had almost died from the minds of the
people, Repke made confession of the
crime, duplicating with him fourteen OF
Rogers City's best.known citizens, among
them August Goslin, Carl Vogler, August
Eorgenfrier, Fred Uno, Ferdinand Bruder,
Henry Jacobs, Goettlieb Lambert, Herman
Meme, Charles Wesscngest, August Thurman,
and four others, all well-known in the county.
In his confession he says the only reason II
was made is that il-luck has pur-
sued him the past few years. His
children have been drowned his barns and
houses burned without apparent cause, his
investments all turned out bad and his horses
died. All this would not have made him con-
fess, he says, but OF late he has been unable
to sleep nights from thinking of the crime and
he could not stand the strain any longer.
The confession stlrs up great commotion
as all the people implicated will be arrested
and Repke is in jail

DIVORCES IN FRANCE.
Couples Usually Tire of Each Other After
Five and Under Ten Years.

EAfC anu IeafB.
Pittsburg Dispatch.
The Journal 06iciel publishes some read
able statistics relative to the divorces and
separations decreed in France during period
OF twelve months. The divorces granted after
less than one years. connubial happiness
amount to 2per cent. Then comes tremendous
jump to 23 per cent in the case of unions hay
ing lasted from one to five years. The
heaviest proportion of all is that for the pc
riod extending from the fifth to the tenth year.
the number reached being 40 per cent.
After that the figures drop rapidly. Only 2S
per cent. of couples seek divorce between their
tenth and twentieth wears of union; between
twenty and thirty the proportion is only per
cent. and, finally, only one pair in hundred
seeks to cut the knot after sailing through
life together for over thirty and under forty
years. After more than forty summers Of
welded happiness there is no instance of the
French equivalent for "a decree nisi." Con-
1ugal infidelity is the cause OF only one-fifth
ofthe divorces granted.

Thursday,
A 100000 Volume Book Sale.

That immense sums of money are in
volved in the business of publishing in
New York, is illustrated by an operation
of the Cosmopolitan Magazine, OF which
the particulars have just come to light.
Six hundred thousand volumes, equal to
public libraries of three or four good
sized cities, have been purchased by that
magazine at single stroke of the pen,
to be used, as the proprietors believe, in
adding quarter Of a million to the sub
scription lists of that magazine. The
volumes are the memoirs Of Generals
Grant, Sherman, Sheridan and McClel-
Ian. OF Grants book it is said that $780, 0
copies have been already sold in this
country. BY making 80 large purchase,
the Cosmopolitan people are able to offer
the two volumes of &c eral Grants
Memoirs in the origina. subscription, 81
edition, for fifty cents in addition to the
price of the magazine. The offer is liter
ally an unparalleled one in the history Of
the publishing bu mess, and when it was
announced to the great printing house OF
J. j. Little & Co., who are the printers of
both the Grant Memoirs and of the Cos
mopolitan, the expression OF Mr.. Little
was, "Simply impossible! 1t cannot b.
done!" Ii the printer, who knows the
cost of white paper, ink and binding,
says that such thing is impossible, the
public can well fail to comprehend how
such an operation can be made. Never
theless, it is fact that the magazine
will be offered to the public in connection
with these volumes of General Grant at
the figure mentioned-$3.50 There can
be little doubt that at such an offer the
Cosmopolitan's expectations Of a quarter
of million increase in its circulation
will be quickly realized. If 650,0O0 rich
people have been willing to pay 81 for
Grants book, it follows that there must
be good many hundreds of thousands
more who will he glad to obtain it at so
cents and the price Of years subscrip-
ton to the Cosmopolitan. The publica-
tlOH Vi LldSdZiit lS uldIucI VI HUH
dreds of thousands OF dollars annually.
Not only are enormous prices paid ior
articles, but for premiums as well. The
100000 sets of these memoirs weigh
100000 pounds. and would, at the SUBJ
scription price of 81 per set, amount to
$2,100,0UO. Of course, the publishers Of
the Cosmopolitan did not pay any such
figures, but they paid enough to make a
sum Of very respectable proportions.
