Death IN Awful Form.

Kearney, Mo, Sept. About
two mouths ago Il dog having strong
indications of rabies bit Mrs. Aman-
da Gustine and also several children
of this place. Two of the chill dren
were taken to a maidstone, but it
failed to adhere to the wounds. As
a result OF the popular faith in this
remedy the fears of the public were
somewhat allayed. Yesterday morn.
ing Mrs. Gustine was seized with an
unmistakable attack of hydrophobia
and died in terrible agony this morn
at 8 o'clock
She leaves two children who were
bitten, but who show no signs OF
approaching rabies. Much excite
ment prevails and great fear is now
felt for the several children who
we've attacked by the same animal
which caused Mrs. Gustin's horrible
death.

Wilburton, I. T.. Sept. S-Two
men with dark skins, rendered ghost
ly by fear and long confinement,
stood IN the court grounds, ten
miles out from Wilburtoa, today
alternately singing and praying. In
a cabin few yards distant were two
rude coffins. On little hill 400
yards away two mounds of fresh
dirt marked two new made graves
An Indian sheriff with loaded Win
chester stood near by, look of in
difference on his stolid face All
about were Indian police, deputy
malshals, COW boys and idle, curious
spectators.
The two men with distorted faces
were Simon Wade and Solomon
Lewis. Choctaw Indians, condemned
to die for political murders. The
coffins were intended for them, so
were the graves. They were to be
stripped to the waist, t,seated upon the
coffins and shot through their hearts
by the sheriff.
Suddenly mounted man, riding
rapidly, appeared. 1t was Robert
Benton, captain of Governor Jones
light horsemen. He came from Red
Oak and bore letter from Judge
Holston stating that he bad recon-
sidered his decision and in accord
ance with the commands made by
Secretary Smith had declared their
execution off and granted them new
trials. The lives of Simon Wade
and Solomon Lewis had been saved.
They are the happiest Indiansin the
Choctaw Nation tonight It Is more
than probable that new trial means
acquittal. Both men passed very
restless night, their supposed last
on earth, spending the most of time
praying. They now believe that
prayer saved their lives

A unique proceeding III connection

a man named Conn went hunting for
bear near Creole, Colo, the other day.
He wanted to do little killing just for
fun. Presently he stirred up a she bear
with two cubs, and he banged away at
the cubs, wounding both. The mother
resented this boisterous humor and
chased Mr.. Conn up Il tree and dallied
with him awhile herself. MIR. Conn was
buried by his friends next day, victim
of his own superexuberant lust for fun.
The bear is peaceable, inoffensiye
creature. 1t seeks n home remote from
the haunts of humanity. 1t certainly
seems to have some rights which man
kind should respect. We have no sym
pathy with people who make practice
of going about Strengthening game in cold
blood merely ''for the fun Of the thing"
If man is so inhuman as not to enact
and conserve laws for the protection of
the bear, we certainly shall applaud the
bear for protecting itself.-Chicago Rec

STRANGE SEA TALES.
By CHARLES B. LEWIS (M. QUAD.

Copyright, 1893, by Charles b. Lcwis1
At 10 O'clock of q September evening
20 years ago the brig Dolphin, bound
from Demerara to Pernambuco, was off
tho mouth Of the Para river and making
about two knots an hour in the light
breeze when the lookout reported the
hulk of q vessel dead ahead. He had not
been keeping n vigilant watch, or he
would have seen the obstruction sooner.
1t was not hulk, but tree with very
large top, and before the helm could be
shifted the brig ran slap into it. The
collision was not violent one. and under
ordinary circumstances we should have
been put to no more trouble than using
the axes for q few minutes. All of us in
the watch on deck at the timo knew that
it was tree we had run into, and all
were called forward to assist in clearing
it away. Only one man had reached the
heel of the bowsprit when couple of
large tiger cats came over the bows
growing and splitting, and every man
rushed aft. We were IS miles off Shore
and had there been anything like
breeze we should have been in a bad sit
uation.
Everybody aboard was soon made ac-
quainted with the state of affairs, but
that didn't help the case any. There
wasn't even n single barreled pistol
aboard, and it soon became evident that
the animals We're dangerous visitors.
They had probably been afoat two or
three days ut the least. for they were suf-
