The seven Bibles VI the world are the
Koran u the Mohammedans, the Tri
Pitikes OF the Buddhists, the Five Kings
Of the Chinese, the Three Vedas OF tho
Rindoos, the Zendavesta Of the Per-
SLAMS, the Eddas Of the Scandinavians,
and the Bible OF the Christians. Tho
Eddas Is the most recent, and cannes
really be called more than asemi-sacred
work. 1t was given to the world some
time during the fourteenth century Of
our era.
The Koran is the next r1oet ancient,
dating from about the seventh century
A. d. 1t Is composed of sublime
thoughts from both the Old and the New
T~estaments, with fire. uent, almost lit
eral, quotations from the Talmud. The
Buddhists' Tri Pitisss were composed
In the sixth century before Christ; its
teachings are pure and sublime, its
aspiration lofty In the extreme. The
word sKing," as used in connection with
the sacred work Of the Chinese, simply
means web of cloth" From this it is
presumed that they were originally
written on fine rolls Of cloth.
The Vedas are the most ancient works
In the language OF the Hindoos. but
they do not, according to the best COM
mentaries, antedate the twelfth en-
fury before the opening Of the Chris
tinn era. The Zendayesta Of the Per-
SLAMS contain the sayings OF Zoroaster,
who lived and worked in the twalfth
century B. G..

ISSULLIYAN In CHICAGO ?
A Letter Received Here Says He
Was Seen There Recently.
THE DETECTIVES ON THE TRAIL,
The Rcd Headed Woman supposed 10 be
Dalton's sister-DaIton Supposed to be
in Hiding Hereabouts-Ciothing Found
I'm the Flag House Identified.

The interest sin the Haswell murder
mystery still remains rs intense as ever.
The police are keeping extremely quiet
and mum when questioned as to their
progress I'm the chase, but are nevertheless
working hard.
1t has been stated positively by those
on the case that Dalton stayed at the
farmhouse occupied by man named
Goff. located in Dodgeville, day or more
after the murder. This man is said to
have formerly worked for Mr.. Goff, and
was set ut work when he turned up there
on the day stated.
Dalton is afro said to have written these
letters while at the farm house, one Of
which is alleged to have been addressed
to "a Miss Nellie Touey at Brayton's, Fall
River. This young lady is employed at
the home of Hon. John 5. Brayton to-
gether with young woman named
Norah Toomey.
Dalton is alleged to have paid at one
time great deal of attention to the lat
ter and 1t is the general opinion that the
letter said to have been sent to Nellie
Touey was meant for the other woman.
The Toomey girl refuses fatty to be in
terviewed by the representatives of the
press, hut it was stated that to a friend
she had said that she had not met Dalton
in two years.
AS both the girls mentioned are dark
CompIexioned and as the Toomey girl
stoutly denies having lett her place on
Tuesday it cannot be that either one Of
the young women was the "red-haired,
oval-faced' woman who is alleged to
have met Dalton at the farmhouse, and
with whom he departed.
The statement has been made that she is
Dalton's sister, Annie, who is said to have
red hair and I'm uanprnl N fha
description given of the woman. Al.
though Dalton is said to have had no
money, yet it is stated that the woman
with whom he went away told him that
she had plenty.
On Thursday afternoon the clothing
and papers found in the room occupied by
Dalton at the GoT farm were turned over
TO Detective Parker
One Of the Central Falls police officials
was told that Sullivan was in the vicinity
in a state Of intoxic alton, but an immedi-
ate investigation failed to reveal his
whereabouts.
At an early hour this morning n letter
was received by n resident of this city i'm
which 1t was stated that Yankee Dan -
was in Chicago. The writer alleged TO
have seen Sullivan and conversed with
him at the latter place.
The clothing found in the switch house,
left there by Dalton, was taken to the
Hopkins stock farm, where man giving
his name as George Morgan had worked
few days previous TO the murder, and
was identified as being identical with
the clothing worn by the so-called Nor
gau. This proves Morgan and Dalton to
be one and the same individual.
1t is the general opinion throughout
She city that Dalton is In hiding some
where in the limits Of this city and the
operations OF the detectives are con fined to

Mitchell Trial
FOR THE DEATH OF FREDA WARD
Lawyers Profess Surprise, as 1t Was Not
Thought Miss Mitcheirs Counsel Had
Made Out q Particularly strong Case
For Her.
ESPECIAL TO THE YEws.I

MEMPHIS, Tenn, July 30.-The jury in
the Alice Mitchell case to-day brought in
q verdict Of insanity.
She was charged with the murder of
her friend and constant companion, Freda
Ward, who she wanted to marry.
The verdict was somewhat of a surprise
to lawyers and others who have watched
the case, as it was not generally thought
that the counsel for the fair murderess
had maue out strong case in support of
their plea of insanity.

TO KEEP COOL TOMORROW.
Extra Facilities Will be offered on the Bay
for tho People.
Down the river tomorrow will as usual
be day of activity. Those who have
been laboring In the heated city during
the week can and will find rest and recre-
alton at the various shore resorts on the
bay
The shore places will all be running full
blast, the excursion boats will be running
more frequently than usual and people
will. II the weather Is fair, 60 In larger
crowds than ever before. The boats will
run To Crescent Park and Rocky Point
every thirty minutes.
There will be two trips to Newport aud
return. AT Fields Point and Silver
Spring the patrons will regale themselves
upon the excellent shore dinners always
set up at these places, while at Crescent
Park the usual great show will be in
progress.
In ldition to this Manager Boyden's
shore dinner will doubtless attract many.
At Rocky Point the clambake, tobog0an
and all the other attractions will be in
operation.
IL the weather which we have been hav-
ing for the past week holds out there Is
very little doubt but that the very large
crowds which thronged 10 the shore re-
sorts last Sunday will be greatly aug
mented, for in this weather about the
only place to keep cool is n-ar the water.
The park with its quiet and shade
offers attractions to many and Cable Cot
tage will doubtless draw a crowd of ex-
cursionists who can enjoy themselves
upon the river or by rambling through
the wood.
The afternoon trip of the Day Star to
Newport will extend around Beaver Tail
without extra charge.

THE CARROLL CASE.
A Long Opinion from Chief Justice
Matteson.

A Long Opinion from Chief Justice
Matteson.
A lengthy opinion in the quo warranto
case against Mayor Carroll Of Pawtucket,
prepared by Chief Justice Matteson. was
handed down to-day.
The grounds for overruling the COM
plainants demurrer to the defendants
plea and sustaining the plea are set forth.
the court concluding after extended ar
gumentation that the statutes governing
the calling Of elections are directory and
not mandatory, and on this ground it is
believed that the three days notice of the
fourth municipal election of 1891, at
which Mayor Carroll was elected, was
sufficient.
Owing to the action of the Board of
Aldermen in calling the election so soon,
the city clerk was unable to post the
notices the required seven days before
hand. As the Board of Aldermen fixed
the time under the mistaken impression
that the provision for calling an election
did not apply in case of failure TO elect.
the question Is whether the Board OF
Aldermen's order was void or merely
irregular.
The numerous cases cited by the re-
lators in support of their argument were
instances where special election was
called, and of different type from the
case under consideration. The provisions
governing them were mandatory, and
much stronger than those involved in the
present case
This election was practically contin-
ued election. though made a new elec-
tion by statute.
