Child Crawls into Trunk and is
Ssnseless When Found.
HAvERHILL, MASS. Aug. 2.-Mary, the
9-year-old daughter of jeremiah and Mar
Raret Drscoll of this city, was the victim
of peculiar mishap to-day.
Mamie was playing with a kitten in a
room where there was large packing trunk
left unlocked. Suddenly she was missed,
and a search was instituted for her, but she
could not be found anywhere in the house
To make matters more distressing, her
voice, apparently in distress, could be
plainly heard.
The family looked everywhere, under
beds, under the piazza, in the basement, in
the attic, even in the stove, but little Mary
could nowhere be found. Her parents were
frantic. In the meantime the little voice
could be heard continually growing fainter,
but more agonizing.
The mother, who was rushing about
frantic, became unconscious. A large crowd
was attracted to the scene, and they began
literally to tear the house to pieces. Several
Of the women were made i'll by the excite
meat. After four hours search the hunt
was temporarily given up and the voice was
supposed TO have been OF ghostly origin.
This evening the trunk happened to bo
moved and was known to be empty. Its
weight caused it to be examined. In it was
lying the child alive but unconscious. Its
mind may be gone, due TO the fright. She
had crawled in during play and been caught
by a snap lock-

With the Alliance.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Aug. "A Times
Topeka (Kan.) special says that the Shawnee
county democratic convention, the first
meeting Of the kind since the democratic
editors of Platte decided that the party
should not fuse with the farmers al
lance, was held yesterday and bolted
the editors decision. c. K. Halliday,
editor OF the Topeka Democrat. who led the
anti-fusion faction, was defeated for the
ehairmanship by fusion man. Judge John
Martin, the most influential democrat in the
state made long speech in favor of the
fusion. He said that no democratic priuci-
pies were particularly involved in the coun-
uy's politics. 1t was not matter of demo
cratic victory, but rather Of republican
defeat. His council prevailed and only two
nominations were made. The convention
tnen adjourned for a week In the mean
ume conference will be held with the
farmers alliance people and the latter will
Oe given the remaining parts of the ticket.

Obliged to Take It's Airing Under a
Stalwart POliCeman'S Protection
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.-Alinister Tsui
Kwo Yin is digusted with some of the
customs of the country to which he is ac-
credited. Whenever his baby daughter is
taken out for an airing it has to be under
the escort of big blue coated policeman.
The minister doesn't think It any Joke, but
he is powerless against the curiosity Of the
barbarians in the neighbJrhood of the
Chinese legation,
The purchase Of the baby carriage was it,
self diplomatic event. One day last week
passers-by in the neighborhood Of Dupont
Circle we're attracted by "a crowd vending
its way through the park toward Stewart
Castle, the residence of the legation, and
upon closer approach it was discovered that
the cause of all this excitement was moth
ing more than the appearance OF "a group of
celestials, in the midst of which was baby
carriage pushed by one of the party. The
carriage was such as one meets every day
on the streets and in the parks, and 1t was
empty. The cortege hurriedly wendell its
way Tor the castle and, in rather undigni-
| fled haste, beat quick Tstrest within the
protecting privacy of the enclosure.
The thirty days required by custom for
the seclusion OF a newly-born infant in the
Orient legally expired on July "a. Saturday
the baby was given its first outing in the
carriage, attended by nurses. servants and
attaches of the legation. while the minister
himself watched the proceedings from the
piazza. It was short outing, for the
crowd of children who gathered seemed
likely to take possession of tha Chinese in
fant by force and pass it around for Ius9ec-
tion. Sunday another attempt was made,
and this time the crowd of the curl 1us was
sprinkled with grown people An English
speaking attache went to police headquar-
ters and made complaint. The result was
that policeman was specielly detailed for
the Chinese legation and now the baby is
given its airing in safety.

1t Has Been Discovered on Mountain

ST.. PAUL, MINI, Aug. 2.-The first in
stallment of the Philippine island specimens
forwarded by the Menage exploring expedi-
tiou reached st. Paul yesterday. A letter
received from the explorer tells of the dis
covery of a new race of people.
Making the ascent of the highest noun
tain in the Philippines, at height of 200
feet, it was discovered that the mountain
was inhabited, and by people entirely diff
ferent from any ever seen in the lowlands.
After several attempts to photograph q
group, the feat was accomplished. 1t took
good deal Of maneuvering, as the natives
imagined that the camera was a deadly
weapon. As they all escaped with their
lives, they now regard Messrs. Worcester
and Bournes, the explorers, with veneration

RISE AND Fs1L OF A PLuNaER.
How Edwin f. Wilson Made Millions
and Let Them Drop.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Aug. 2.-The story
of the rise and fall of Edwin E. Wilson of
this city, New York and London sounds
like the widest of fiction. When the Kan
sas City boom was at its hight Mr. Wilson
was successful and consequently a very
popular speculator. He was handsome
fellow rich and clever.
When at the zenith of bis brilliant career
he went to Leaven worth, kas, and there
married the rich daughter Of Mrs. Annie B.
Halderman. The wedding was gorgeous
one, the presents, including costly gifts from
the mother OF the bride, being worth more
than $100, 600.
Several Scotchmen in 1882 bought ranch
near Corpus Christi. TexE. and as Wilson
was available they pickles him up to run it
at S20, 600 year. The yd1ug man drew the
salary for two years, when the Sootchman
found they had never made dollar. WI
son put company after company on foot
until it was reported he was worth several
millions.
He went to New YORK and then 10 Lon-
don. In the worlds metropolis Wilson met
the McCurdy brothers, rich Scotchmen. He
told them of the great h ansas City boom.
They were interested; they bought, thew
lost They put the screws 20 Wilson. That
was his first trouble. He tried to extricate
himself, but the screws held tight The
boom died out and Wilson's money was in
real estate or spent in his and his wife's ex-
travagance.
Wilson appealed to his father-in-law, ex-
minister to Siam, John A. Hadermen. He
replied that the Young man had cost him
enough. Mrs. Wilson went home t. her
mother and the magnificent establishment
that they set up here has been seized by the
sheriff. Mrs. Halderman is one Of the Dor
ris heirs of st, Louis and is worth 600

second wealthy marriage. he having been
the husband OF former Miss Marsh Of this
city who died soon after her marriage. Her

occurred which is seldom equaled in the
history Of crime. While the dancing was
going on merrily, a tough character,
Tom Roach, insisted upon dancing. He
was drunk and armed with a knife

the sets were all full
and was requested not to interfere with the
persons already on the floor, but he de-
clared he would dance, and took hold of q
gentleman and attempted to remove him
from the floor. This was resented, and the
parties became engaged in a scuffle, when
Frank H. Hyde attempted to end the

viciously stabbed him with his knife, ino

Roach left the room, but continued to act

Judge Hammond Affirms the Sentence
of King for Sabbath Breaking.
MEMPHIS, TENN, Aug. 2.-E. s. Ham,
mond, United States district judge, has
handed down his decision in the now famous
case of r. NJ. King, the Seventh Day Ad-
ventist Mr.. King was convicted a year
ago of Sabbath breaking by plowing on
Sunday in Obion county. He appealed to
the supreme court and the sentence was
affirmed. Then the Adventists and National
Secular association took up the case.
BASIS OF THE CONTENTION.
Don M. Dickinson was engaged as coun>
sci, and the case was taken to the federal
court last November on q writ of habeas
corpus, the contention being that the con-
Vlctlon was contrary to the bill
stitution of the United States, and
that defendant was held aXprisoner
by the sheriff without due process of law.
The application was argued several months
ago and Judge Hammond has had it under
advisement ever since. The opinion is q
lengthy and learned document, and dwells
exhaustively on every phase Of the argu-
ments advanced in favor Of the religious
prisoner.
TIRE SENTENCE AFFIRMED.
The defendant however, is remanded
back to the custody of the sheriff 10 pay
the fine or serve the time in lieu according
TO sentence. The decision is based not so
much on the constitutionality of the Sab
bath laws as upon the fact that King was
convicted under due process of the Tonnes
see law, and it is not in the province Of the
federal court to review the case
