Fair weather and moderate breeZeS are pre-
dicted for to-day when the second OF the
series of international yacht races is to take
place The course will be triangular and is
expected to afford a good all-round test OF the
yachts. As the race is to be wholly on the
open ocean, it may also afford a good test OF
the seagoing capacities of those who go out to
witness it. Confidence in the Nigiant on the
mart of Americans has ut no time been small;
of course it has been greatly increased by the
victory on Saturday.

Startling are the official statistics that have Just
been published in Germany concerning the number
OF suicides in various armies OF the Old World
and they constitute striking illustration OF the
unpopuarity OF obligatory military service. II
that In Austria the average rate for the year
Is l3i per 100000 The French come next with
ninetytwo suicides per annum for each 100 900 men.
The German Government gives its rate at sixty
eight but these figures are generally believed 10 DO
below the actual number. the impression pre-
walls in military circles throughout Europe that the
suicides in the German Army more frequent
even than in that OF Austria. Italys quota 10
given at forty-fve. while that OF Russia does not
exceed twenty. figure that is obviously far below
the truth. Belgium gives its rate at twenty-four.
Spain at fourteen and England at twenty three.
most OF the suicides In the British Army occurring
out In India A remarkable fact Is that. notwith-
standing the majority OF suicides are popu-
larry believed to be attributable to tyranny the
part OF the officers. yet II is precisely among the
officers that the largest number of sef-inncted
victims is to be found The favorte method OF
suicide Is by shooting either with a rife with q

Amor killing a Man They Find He

ee.ra.yille. Ca, Aug ga man was
t...Irsar mere early this morning who
,..rflently believed 10 DO Coley Dow

Alabama. the man who killed the engi-

Effective came 70 Gainesville day before
-.z-..rl8y on the hot track of Dowdrell
End notified parties here that he was
,I6ucht to be hiding out near the Ches-
tg-a. river. seven or eight miles north of
Gainesville
SURROUNDING THE SUSPECT.
rrconnoitre was made and the man
,,ls located at the house of Widow
pierce near the Chestatee river Last
-iybt a party of men, composed of James
Tatbeu, policeman, of Gainesville, with
Il n Towery, eX-chief of police, Ben
Ham Silas Palmeur, of Gainesville, and
pres Payne and Cleve Chastain, of For
srtb county. went out to arrest Dowdrel.
They arrived at the widows house
mont o'clock this morning and sur
rounded the house and lay in wait
far The appearance of the murderer. Just
before five o'clock and just as day was
breaking the man emerged from the house
and walked out towards where Palmeur
and Towery were waiting He had a pis-
rol in his hand and seemed bent on escap-
inc if possible. When he came within
about ten feet of the men they both arose,
and, pointing their guns at him,
called on him to surrender. Instead
of so doing, he replied something
that one of them understood and
made rush right toward Palmeur with
his pistol raised. Palmeur fired his
g1n. and the man fell dead at his feet
with his head riddled with shot The
widow Pierce then came out, aroused by
the shot, and claimed that the mans
name was Martin, and that he was not
the man they were after. The party re-
turned to town this morning, leaving the
dead man in charge of the widow and
some neighbors, and told the occurrence
as above set forth. The coroner and
solicitor general have gone out to hold
an inquest and find out, if possible, who
the dead man is.
KILLED THE WRONG MAN.
Gainesville, Aug. 25.-The facts de-
veloped that the real name of the man
killed is Martin, that Mrs. Pierce is his
grandmother, and that his father left
here about fifteen years ago for Texas
with this boy then about eight years old.
He returned to Gainesville about ten days
ago and went over to his grandmother
and has stayed there ever since. He goes
armed all the time, even to his meals, and
his morning as he came out of the house
he was in his night clothes, but had
his pistol in his hand, and when ordered
to surrender he replied Il win die be-
tore l will be arrested" and raised his
pistol as if to shoot His brother is the
pastor Of the Baptist church of Fate,
rockwell county, Texas, and is named
Rev. j. H. Martin. Dowdrell was known
TO have several aliases, and it is supposed
that Martin is his real name. There was
% reward of 81 600 for the capture of
Nowdrell, and this man has been guarded
and spotted since his arrival The opin-
Jon seems general that he is either the
other crime.

LOOKED IN AN ICE BOX.
A Meat Store Proprietor Nearly Frozen
to Death.
From the Philadelphia Record.

L
New York, Aug. 21-David Jacobs had
narrow escape from being frozen to
death in mid-August in the midst of this
city to-day. For three terrible hours he
was imprisoned in the refrigerator room
of the Buffalo Meat Company.
He had gore in to examine the stock,
and one of the clerks, believing that he
had gone home, shut the door and locked
it. When Jacobs discovered his peril, he
pounded with all his might upon the door ;
but, to his horror, there was no answer
from without The clerk had left. The
miserable man found himself hOpelessly
incarcerated in a tomb cold as ice.
He frantically kicked the door and
shouted till he was hOarse. In his des-
peratiOn he even sought to break the iron
bars across the windows. In the midst of
his turtle efforts he felt himself slowly
freezing to death. He tried to keep up
his circulation by running around the
small room, but the Attic temperature
was steadily chilling him to the narrow.
He was becoming dangerously drowSy
and benumbed.
IN the frenzy of his fear he suddenly
struck upon a novel resource, the only
one possible Taking down several large
pieces of meat, he began throwing them
from one side Of the room to the other.
He is strong, robust man, but he kept
up his impromptu ball game until his
back ached and he was nearly exhausted.
He dared not stop for fear that it would
cost him his life. After several
hours the clerk came back. He opened
the door of the room and MIR. Jacobs
tumbled into his arms
The clerk hastily summoned a doctor,
who applied restoratives. Mr.. Jacobs
was found to be seriously i'll. He was
taken to his home in Tompkins street,
Stapleton, S. l. He is sick in bed as the
result of his experience. His doctor says
he will never fully recover.

it had no knowledge Of any such piece of
land within the borders of the United
States. Brunson continues to squat, and
now defies the powers that be to GUST
him He is bachelor. and is the sole
resident of the island, which contains
about six acres. He has a small ranch,
where he raises garden truck, etc, and
lives as independently as any of the proud
potentates of Europe.
At low tide Brunson can reach the
mainland along low spit of sand, but
when the water comes uin he is cut of
from all communication with the outside
world except by boat. This miniat ure
kingdom is about twelve miles from Olym-
pia, at the intersection of Big Skookum
and Oyster bays. According to Brun-
sons first understanding his kingdom was
just over the line in Mason county. It
seems, however, that the middle of the
channel is counted as the dividing line in
the bays of Puget Sound, and by this,
Brunson's kingdom is in Thurston
county.
The question of taxation is now in dis
pute. Brunson refused to pay his poll
tax to Mason county on the ground that
his island was not subject to any govern
ment and that he was literally law unto
himself. This seems to be the generally
accepted view of the case. Some of his
neigh bors toked him about his principal
ity, and he remarked that he chad good
notion to run up the British flag and take
possession in the name of Queen Victo-
ria" II has been suggested that if he
should sell whisky within the borders of
his kingdom, he would soon find out who
owned the island
Since he pays no taxes his right to vote
is called in question. According to latest
accounts Brunson was disposed to favor
Thurston county with his vote The case
it quite interesting and has provoked no
little discussion among the inhabitants of

DUEL BETWEEN WORK GIRLS.
A Mysterious Affair That Recently Oc-
CURED in Paris.


From the New Castle CEng.) Chronicle.
A duel was fought in the streets of
Paris Tuesday night, between two girls,
both of whom are now lying in
one of the hospitals severely wounded.
The girls, who are but 16 or II years of
age, are employed in a cardboard box
factory. Having quarreled during their
work on Tuesday, they decided to settle
their differences in duel that was fixed
to take place in the Rue ST. Martin at
midnight. At the appointed hour both
girls arrived on the scene armed with
knives.
The struggle which followed was of
short duration, one girl plunging her
knife into the others shoulder, whilst
she herself received a wound in the face,
the knife passing right through the nose
and penetrating the eye. This savage en-
counter lasted but few seconds. Sew
eral passers-by, who came up a few sec
onds afterward, carried both girls 10 o
chemists shop, where their wounds were
dressed. They were, however, so severe
ly injured as to necessitate their removal
to a hospital. Questioned by the police,
neither girl would disclose the motive of
the quarrel which terminated in the duel
