boys, aged respectively seven and twelve
years, were smothering in imekiln.
Without an instant's hesitation Julia
Dignam precipitated herself into the
kiln in the hope of bringing one or other,
if not both, to the surface alive. The
younger of the two she dragged first tc
a place of safety. She then returned
for the other, but he was quite dead,
and her only companion on hearing it
rushed Mortified from the edge of the
kiln and left her actually alone with her
ghastly charge. She called her brother,
and they dragged out the body. The
younger one recovered. On behalf of
the grand priory of the Order of the
Hospital of st. John of Jerusalem the
Prince of Wales has recently decorated
her with the medal for life saving.
Julia's journey to London was vast
event in her humble little history. The
authorities paid her passage money and
escorted her from the station to Marl-
borough house, where the Prince Of
Wales not only affixed her decoration
with his own royal hands, but spoke
many kindly words to her. The delay
in decorating her was due to the fact
that the society can only honor given
number of persons each year.

cial commissions, how much pulling OF
diplomatic wires, how much Worlds fair
literature has been necessary to induce
them to put their shoulders to the wheel
in the direction of securing an adequate
representation of their countries at the eX-
position.
In England, for instance, Millicent Gar
rett Fawcett is applying herself with vim
and energy to the task of securing thor
oughly representative delegation of her
countrywomen. 1t was nearly twenty
years ago since l characterized her in a
speech as the 'female Gladstone" and the
cognomen is evidently sticking to her in
the old country, for it was used in a Lon
don paper but couple of weeks ago.
I suppose she might now be called the
"Grand Old Woman for her hair must be
plentifully streaked with gray, although
age can never efface the traces of her won
drous youthful beauty. She is a great
woman and a grand one Her life has been
devoted to the uplifting and advancement
of her sex, and if the indefatigable women
who are promoting the congress had ac-
complished nothing more than inducing
Mrs. Fawcett to cross the water and min
gle with her American sisters and talk to
them their efforts would not have been in
vain. But the great English woman will
be only one Of hundreds that will sail the
ocean blue between April and July of next
year on a similar mission.
Mrs. May Wright Sewell, of Indiana, is
now traversing the Continent in the inter
est of the congress, and her latest advices
afford evidence that the project has awak-
ened the most cordial enthusiasm.
1t will probably be a difficult matter to
prepare an ironclad programme for the
consideration of the gathering, or one that
shall be closely adhered TO, Tor when once
woman begins to talk no one knows, not
even herself, when she is likely to stop. In
general way, however, it is intended to
present specific subjects for consideration
at each session.
1t will not be distinctively "woman
suffrage" or 'women's rights assemblage
although most of the participants will
doubtless have advanced ideas on these
issues, but consideration will largely be
devoted to questions pertaining to the
education and employment Of women, to
women's place in the home, in the church
and in the state, to her influence in the
cause of humanity and how such influence
can best be directed. And out of it's de-
liberations may come thoughts and ideas
and suggestions and theories that may be
helpful to womankind the world over for
generations to come.

f. II. Hayes, for nearly seven years
peaceful, law abiding and respected citizen
of Warsaw, Ark, occupies cell in the
county jail Walter Il. Williams. alias +.
H. Hayes, is charged with being an accom-
plice to the assassination of the widow
Martha Brockett, near cambridge, Ga,
about twelve years ago. The man wanted
lived in the outskirts of the town and runs
a beef wagon, and was on the streets all
morning. At 2 o'clock the sheriff marshal
and constable went to the residence, where
they found him sleeping, and called him
out. When they had an advantage the
prisoner was thrown under the cover of a
revolver and told to surrender. At the
same time handouts were placed on his
wrists, but he resisted viciously and called
to his wife, who rushed to the scene with
a shotgun drawn on the sheriff, and was
only prevented from shooting him by a
threat to kill her husband. a fierce strug-
gle ensued, and only after a hard fought
battle was he forced into submission and
tied. He acknowledged that he was the
man wanted
About fifteen years ago Walter Williams
was prosperous farmer eight miles from
Bainbridge. One night his father-in-law,
John Donaldson, has $1,000 stolen. 1t hap
pened that the widow Brockett saw VIII
liams bury something near her house the
same night and she told it. Search was
made at the spot designated and the money
recovered. Williams was of course ar
rested for the theft, but before the trial be
had consultation with the widow and
agreed to support her during her life to
shape her testimony so as to cause his ac-
cuittal This she did at the trial by say
was not the man she saw bury the money.
After the acquittal he supported her
until Donaldson, the prosecutor, died; then
he threw her aside. She continued to an
noy him for support, and on being refused
revenged herself by killing some of his
cattle. Shortly after this she was assas-
sinated one night in her bed. The assas-
sin was run down and found to be Bob
Durham, a workband of Williams. Dun
ham was arrested by Patterson, then
citizen and to him made full confession,
saying he did the killing for fifty dollars
paid to him by Williams, and also !mpli-
Gated John Williams, brother The
brothers were arrested and jailed. Ten
years ago Durham and John Williams
We're tried and given life sentence.
Walter Williams had his trial deferred
and secured bond. After the conviction
OF his brother and Durham he bribed the
Jailer to allow John Williams to escape,
and then disappeared

THE TRUNK OF DEATH.

Mencke, the latter of whom was her sister,
AS both Mr.. and Mrs Mencke were en-
ployed during the day, Miss Koepel was
left at home from early in the morning
until supper time.
One evening Mr.. Mencke was surprised,
upon reaching home shortly after o'clock,
TO observe that there was no light burning
in his apartments. In response to his calls
for Julia, there was nothing but silence,
for Mrs. Mencke had not yet got in from
her work. Mencke groped his way to
where he knew there was a matchsafe and
lit the lamp. Then he went in search of
the missing houselieeper, and in the next
room lie found her and understood why she
was silent.
Kneeling upon the floor, with one hand
attempting to push back the Id Of trunk
which had closed upon her neck, and the
other lifeless by her side within a few
inches of where the needle and thread had
fallen from her pulseless grasp, was his
sister-in law
He rushed over to her and hastily re-
moved the lid of the trunk, but it was Use
less, for she was dead. The sharp edge OF
the iron had cut deeply into her neck, and
left blue gashes from which the blood
seemed ready to squirt. Some old letters
were lying Wnero Sne nad evidently pduSeu
moment in her work to read the stories
of some friend OF former days, and had
perished in the midst Of one of them. The
cause was apparent to the man at once.
While reading the letters she had been
seized with one OF the fits and had fallen;
the jar shook the trunk and caused the lid
to fall upon her neck, and thus she was
held until life was pressed out.
About a year ago the girl was working
in second story window and heard some
body yell fire. The fright threw her into
one of the fits, and she fell to the ground,
severely iniuring her head and face. Since
that time the fits have been more frequent
and severe, and of late her relatives were
in constant fear Of some accident of this
kind, and kept a careful watch on her
while at home. She was twenty-nine years
old and unmarried
