THAT CONFEDERATE NoTE.-The
Young woman who passed the tifty-dol-
lar confederate note on King street
fruit dealer yesterday was soon located
by the police and was to-day arrested
and taken before Mayor Strauss. The
fruit dealer, who is Greek, positively
identified the accused as the person
who gave him the bill, as did also a
King street merchant with whom the
woman had had prior dealings. Two
other merchants came forward and tes-
titled that the prisoner had endeavored
several days ago to palm the bill off on
them. The woman denied all the
charges and posed as the victim of mis-
taken identity. The evidence, how
ever, against her was conclusive, and
the Mayor postponed the trial until
next Monday morning. The accused
is resident of Alexandria, is young,
prepossessing and married. She came
originally from the country, and has
lived here with her husband since she
was married. The statement yester-
day that she purchased three-dollars'
worth of goods from the fruit dealer
was erroneous. She bought fifteen
cents worth of bananas and rendered
the ffty-dollar note in payment, took
$3.50 of the change and said she would
return for the remainder.

TIED TO THE CROSS,
That is How Painter Kurka Existed
Through an Earthquake.


"In Lima" said Painter Kurka
to LIGHT man, "There is a large
cathedral and on the summit of
the cupOla is huge crucifiX, rep
reSenting Christ on the cross. This
some years ago had been gilded
but time and the weather had made
it's ravages and the crucifx was
looking something like piece of
old iron. The clergy decided to
have the crucitiX re-gilded, and |
got the contract for $500, they to
supply the necessary gold. The
crucitiX was away in the air and |
had to put up a Yankee skeleton
scatfOld to work upon. | gave the
the crucitiX two coats of
paint to fill in and make
a good basis for the gold. When
this was done | commenced gild-
ing and had the head done, when
an earthquake came. The scat
folding 'wObbled' round considera-
able, and even then the stone
| was badly scared, but there was
as much danger in getting down
from the cross as in staying there,
so | decided to stay. Now it is
customary there, when in danger,
to vow something, money, candle
for the affairs and such, and |
vowed a lot of things, but no relief
came. There was a long rope on
the scatfold, not used, and |
tied this firmly around the
crucifiX and around my waist
remrrking, "Well, if we got to go,
we both go together" Just then
the rumbling ceased and, thank
God the earthquake was at an
end. finished the job alright but
l don't want to get away up in
the world so much again, especial
ly in country where cyclones
and earthquakes usually come
around at any time. My wife then
had rooms where she could see me
work, and my danger scared her
almost worse than it did me, and l
can tell you that it scared me SO
badly that it was long ere before
my nervous condition was O. X.

TIRED OF LIFE.
Filled His Mouth With Powder
and Lit it With a Match.


CHICAGO, July 27.-W. II. Irving,
of Charles street, Winthrop Beach,
Mass, committed suicide some
time last night or early in the
morning, on the lake shore. The
method used was horrible, and
most revolving. A partly filled
can of powder by his side
and torn and mangled face indi-
Gated that the suicide had filled
his mouth with powder and then
probably with lighted match
had caused it to explode. Irving
left note stating that he was out
of work, and was tired of life, to
notify his wife at St. Winthrop
Beach, Mass but not to send her
his body, as she had no money to
