FRANCE AWAKENED.
News of the Exposition Is Now Sought by
Leading Newspapers.


Leading Newspapers.
The most noticeable aspect Of EXPOSE
ton work abroad just now is the won
derful awakening in France to the mag
nitude and assured success of the enter
prise. How interest in France might be
stimulated has long been subject Of
much consideration by the officials and
committees having in charge the for
eign promotion. About six weeks ago
there was joint session of the foreign
exhibition and press and printing com
mittees together with President Baker
and Director General Davis on this sub
ject. At that meeting Chief Handy was
empowered to pay special attention,
with large discretion, to the work in
France. The result was the adoption
of the plan which, without the payment
of subsidies, has resulted in wonder
ful increase of interest on the part Of
the French press and public and a
strong reflex influence on the French
government, which, however, has al
ways been favorably disposed. During
the: month of January the number Of
paragraphs about the exposition in
French newspapers only exceeded very
slightly three hundred, whereas in Feb
ruary the mum Der arose to about twelve
hundred, with good many returns yet
to come in.
Chief Handy has now list of one
hundred and seventy French newspa-
pers which during the last month edito-
rally announced that the success of the
exposition was no longer matter Of
conjecture, and urged upon all con-
cerned the Importance of moving If
France is not to be outstripped in the
race of nations in the matter of exhib.
its. These papers comprise the leading
representatives of French journalism.
and the bundle of clippings containing
their utterances is perhaps one Of the
most remarkable and extensive exhibit
tions of quiclSly-obtained publicity on
record. In addition, all of the illus
trated journals of Paris have taken hold
of the subject, and two of them have
published double-page illustrations of
the grounds and buildings. On the
whole, the situation in France in refer
ence to the exposition may be said to
have completely changed in one month
for the better.

Few Sites Left.

The exposition authorities are anx-
ious that all of the states and territories
which intend to erect buildings at the
exposition and which have not yet sub
mitted plans for approval do so at the
earliest possible moment. Very soon a
time will be specified beyond which
plans will not be accepted. May / is
the date likely to be chosen. The de-
mand for space is so great that delin-

that have been assigned to them.

Experience with Death.

Fernleigh l.. Montague, the English
artist who killed his wife and himself
in Washington a few days ago because
he could not sell his pictures, had once
before serious experience with death.
He ran away to America when young
man to escape the apprenticeship to a
barrister to which he had been bound
by his father. A short time afterward
a body was found floating in the
Thames and was buried asihis. He did
not learn of this fact till twelve years
latbr, when the legacies which should
have come to him had been divided
among other heirs. He was looked up
on by the laws of England as dead, and
could not prove his identity in the
courts. But it required pistol shot to
make him as dead in America as he
had been for quarter of q century in
ENGLAND.

STORM ON oHEsApEAKE BAY.
Much Damage Done to shipping-Grain
Elevator Partially Wrecked.

BALTIMORE, Md, November 20.-A
hurricane OF unusual violence swept up
Chesapeake Bay at noon yesterday, and
played havoc with the buildings along
the water front of the har6or and with
the vessels moored therein. The wind
reached a velocity of almost sixty miles
an hour. The harbor was we'll filed
with vessels of every class, and great
deal Of damage was done to them.
The immense grain elevator, No. 8,
belonging TO the Northern Central Rail-
road, located in Canton, was cOnSidtra-
bly, damaged, the wind shaking the
great building until wide cracks APP
reared in the walls. The workmen
rushed from the building terror strick-
en-, with the belief that the structure
was about to collapse. Several other
buildings were damaged.
The Weems line steamer Lancaster
was blown from her course and collided
with the Norwegian steamer Holguin.
The schooner Van Lear Black broke
from her moorings and was driven
against q dock with such force as
hto wreck the schooner's head
gear and damage the dock. The ting
Volunteer was bringing the bargeS
Jackson No. and Fred Durkee from
Norfolk up the bay when the hurricane

crafts. The Durkee went to pieces
within few minutes and her cargo OF
lumber fioated about the river. On
board the barge was the owner. Capt.

DOZENS HEALED BY A TOUCH.
Remarkable Cures Effected by an Evan,
geIist at Wilkes Barre, Pa.


gelist at Wilkes Barre, Pa.
WILKEs-BARRE. November 2O.-This
town is excited over some wonderful
faith cures performed by a man calling
himself 1.-THE Healing Evang elist," who
has now for two days been healing per-
sons who for years have been sick. The
first service was held last night at the
Zion NJ. E. Church. After sermon by
the healer, large number OF sick per-
sons were treated by laying on OF hands,
and some very remarkable results were
obtained. Several deaf persons were
made to hear; several were freed entirely
from rheumatic pains ana stiffness. A
man with heart disease suddenly felt
the heart beat naturally. Another un-
able to bend his back from lumbago and
sciatica quickly and easily stepped to
and from the floor. A woman in an
agony of extreme pain instantly declared
her anguish had gone, and kneeling
down with sobs and tears thanked God
for her wonderful Improvement. A man
nearly blind said his sight was greatly
helped, and he then correctly described
objects fifteen feet distant, which was
impossible before. Many others were
treated with remarkable success.
Another meeting was held to-day and
the little church could not hold the
large crowd which embled to see the
wonderful healer. After discourses by
the pastor and Rev. p. Warnon many
treated the previous evening arose and
emphatically testified that the benefits
they obtained had continued perma-
nently. A large number OF new pa
tients were treated. Ensign Wede-
mans, As years, totally deaf ear instantly
heard whisper, and the same happened
to the totally deaf ears of L. Davenport,
E. Evans and several others. William
Lane said his asthmatic symp-
toms were instantly removed. Mrs. l..
Reeves withered and totally power
less arm relieved instantly, and she
raised il to her head and the long, bent
and crooked fingers were loosened and
Strengthened. Mrs. s. Wincom's
rheumatic pains ceased right. away.
Mrs. NJ. Buffers chronic neuralgia left
her at once. Mrs. Brenner's rheum-
atism yielded, and for the first time in
years she knet, raised her feet to a
chair seat and ran and jumped like a
girl. William Hayden's lost speech |
was greatly helped, and his rheumatic
feet, that he could not raise, were so
helped that he jumped on and off
chair and then ran and leaped. "Praise |
God" he said and all the audience re-
sponded with hearty "Amen." Scores
Of other equally striking results were
obtained.

Mrs. McClintlc for parts unknown, but

anything else but peace in the Simonton
household, aud for some time he has
been boarding away from home. and
paying very marked attention TO Mrs.

WINE AND WOMEN.
A Combination That Caused Harvey Males
to Become an Embezzier.

ANDERSON, IND, November co.
When Harvey Males returns to his
pleasant little home In this city he will
find his picture turned toward the wall.
He will also find that he is in danger OF
prosecution on two charges of embez-
Element.
1t is the same old story Of wine and
women. There is no better known man
in Anderson than Harvey Males. He
is man Of splendid physique, verita-
bic giant in stature and Of extraordi-
nary good nature. He was everybody's
friend, and that fact probably contribu-
ted as much to his downfall
as anything else. For over two
years Males has been in the en-
ploy of the Crystal Ice Company
as salesman and collector. Naturally
amount, and the company never sus-
pected him Of playing them false until
short time agof when he severed his
connection with them and took new
position as driver for Frank Stutske.
Here, as with the Ice company, he ala
collecting also. About this time the Ice
company made an examination OF It's
books and found that Males YVES short
$50. A closer examination is now being
made, with the expectation or discover
ing a larger deficiency. The company
began making it warm for Males, and
he quietly collected S125 OF Stutake's
money and left the city. Then the
sensation exploded. Males was very
much of a poker fiend, but had not
luck enough to justify him in following
the game, and IL is thought that much
of the money went that way, while the
rest was lavished upon Miss Vida Hell
man, an inmate OF Margaret Jackson's
bagnio, on East Seventh street.
Although Males has handsome wife
and a twelve-y ear-old daughter, whom
he supported In good style In neat
little cottage In the north end OF the
CITY. his infatuation for this woman OF
sin seems to have turned his mind from
all thoughts Of honor, home or friends.
Not long ago the Holman girl went to
her home in Lima, o., and while
there telegraphed to Males for
money. She also sent him
a telegram requesting him TO meet her
at the Big Four depot on her return.
This message was found by Mrs. Males,
who was also at the depot when the
train arrived. Harvey was on hand
with closed carriage. He greeted his
mistress affectionately, and quickly led
her to tie carriage, into which he as
sisted her. Mrs. Males ran up to the
carriage, but the horses were whipped
up and they drove away rapidly, leav-
ing her standing In the street. Thurs
day Males got his wife to go to Pendle-
ton, Ind, on visit Then he sent his
fair but frail Vida on to Lima by the
first train, and remained in Anderson
until he had made the collections, when
he, too, left and is supposed to have
Joined her at Lima. The affair h.
caused no end Of gossip, and an effort
will be made to locate Males.

gether, and says her husband has been
guilty of adultery with the woman on
various occasions, as she herself has
had proof more than once.
The woman in the case Is the mother
of four children. The Youngess, an In
FAINT In arms, she took with her, while
the others were left with the husband
and father or friends. Simonton has
qnite family, among whom there are
three grown daughters, who feel great
ly the stigma cast on them by the
actions of their father In the past, and
especially the browning scene, enacted
Friday afternoon.
They are honest, Industrious young
ladies, employed in the Irvine factory,
as is also son or two, all OF whom
make good wages, and thus the heart
less desertioL of his family will not be
felt so much In a financial point.
David McClintic is employed at the
P. j. Sorg Company tobacco factory,
and was able to keep his little family
In comfortable circumstances, and no
doubt had his wife kept the despoiler
of domestic happiness at bay, they to-
day would be happy family.

CHICAGO. ILL, November 20.-Be-
hind The locked doors of squallid gar
ret the rigid body of old Margaret Ca
sew has kept silent vigil over the little
hoard of money hidden with mlser's
cunning by her side and remaining I'M
touched, when it might have saved her
from death by cold and hunger.
Old Margaret, who for years has lived
in the garrett at 81 West Thirteenth
street, and who was familiar sight In
the neighborhood, died Monday night,
alone to the last, with none by to close
her age-dimmed eyes or compose her
tired body for the coming OF death.
She had supported herself for years by
selling mustard and green's, and seemed
to be living in abject poverty. by some
her real name was believed to be Mar
qaret Kreshing, and it is said that her
husband, son and daughter are living
somewhere in the city.
She was last seen on the streets Sun
day morning, and. by that strange COM
munity of interest that exists even
among the poor, her disappearance was
the cause of much comment and anxiety
among the neighbors. Yesterday Thos.
Mortell, who occupies room at No. 81
West Thirteenth street, reported the
old woman's disappearance at the Max
well-street Station. Officer l.. A. Rose
went with Mortell to the attic and
found the de0r locked.
Forcing it open, they saw the body OF
the old vegetable seller leaning over a
table, her head bent forward In a nat
ural pose, and her nand grasping bot
tie half filled with whisky. The air OF
the gloomy room was heavy with the
sickening odor OF the neglected body.
The miserable dwelling was almost bare
of furniture, and there was every indi-
cation of helpless age and penury. But
| in small tobacco pouch hidden in the
| molding mattress of her bed was found
a largeroll Of bills, amounting to S537
The bills were of S. and SO denomina'
/ tions, and were plainly the result oil
long years OF toll. as some OF them were
dated as far back as 1871, while other:
were of recent issue.
. Heart disease is supposed to have
been the cause Of old Margaret's death,
as there are no evidences OF foul play
No one, so far as is known, has beer
near the old woman for months. Hel
son and daughter paid no attention K
her, and her husband has not been seer
at the place she made her home fol
many months. The body was removed
to the county morgue.
