NE WS AND NOTES.

The Greek statues of marble
were generally painted in gorgeous
colors, and frequently covered with
a profusion of tawdry ornaments.
In 1888 Henry VII. built the
Royal Harry, considered to be the
beginning of the modern English
navy. This vessel was of 1900 tons.
twenty-five years ago electricity
as a mechanical power was I'M
known. Now $9O0,OO0,O00 are in
vested in various kinds of electrical
machinery.
Ordinary soda of commerce has
been successfully used in France
as a substitute for salt water in
mixing cement or mortar during
cold weather. The results have
been very satisfactory.
The Bank of England was once
compelled to suspend specie pay
ments. 1t was on February 81,
1892. 1t resumed in 1928, after
the financial disaster following the
French wars had passed away.
The first practical sewing ma
chine was invented in 1S41. In
1883 there were 100000 made in
the United States, able to do the
work of 7 100000 women.
The male wasps and hornets are
the scavengers of the community,
being required to keep the nest
clean. They remove the bodies OF
the dead, and when these are too
heavy they bite off the head and
divide the body again at the waist.
The green ants of Australia make
nests by bending leaves together
and uniting them with kind of
natural glue. Cook saw hundreds
at a time on one leaf drawing it
to the ground, while an equal num-
Der waited to receive, hold and fast
en- it.
A new material is proposed as a
substitute for leather. 1t is called
"hexus fibra," and is derived from
flax, suitably prepared and oiled.
1t has the same appearance as
leather, is particularly supple and
takes a polish equally well with
the best kinds of calf.
Making a mountain stream run
over and above a railroad track is
a unique piece of engineering that
the Southern Pacific railroad is
shortly to commence near Wright's
station, in the Santa Cruz noun
tains, in California. When COM
pleted, it will probably make the
largest artificial cataract in the
world.
In 1921 of the American trade
23,6O0,0O0 tons were carried in
American ships and 100000 I'M
der foreign flags; in 1899, $4,000
600 sailed under the American flag
and 220,000,000 tons were carried
in foreign vessels.
Many old houses il Holland have
a special door which is never
opened save on two occasions, when
there is marriage or a death in
the family. The bride and groom
enter by this door it is then nailed
or barred up until a death occurs,
when it is opened and the body is
removed by this exit.

Secondhand Platinum.

Not little platinum is sold as old
metal and usually comes in the form of
bits of wire and scraps from broken in
candescent lamps. 1t is now largely used
by dentists, but it is sent to New York
for treatment, as it can only be melted
by means of a compound blowpipe, and
there is no place in Boston where that
is done.-BOston Herald.

day night the Jail of Chattanooga
county was visited by two men
claiming to be constables. They
had with them man whom they rep
resented to be prisoner sentenced
to imprisonment The jailer was thus
induced to open the doors of the build
ing, when hundred armed men sud
denly appeared and took possession of
the Jail. They seized Bill Richards and
Jim Dickson, two colored prisoners, and
after tying them hand and foot threw
their bodies across two horses and rode
off in the darkness. Nothing has been
heard of the marauders except that
they rode into the swamp near Trion
factory, where the two negroes were
put to death. The crime for which the
men lynched were in prison was the
murder of Constable James Hall and
the shooting of Town Marshal Murphy,
| of Summerville.

Martin Foy Electrocuted Mt the Dapne-
mora IN. W Prison.
DANNEMoRA, n. Y, Oct. 25.-Martin
Foy, the young murderer of Henrietta
Wilson, was shocked to death in the
electric chair in the prison here at
1850 a. IN. The voltage was
1910, and was in full force for
four seconds. 1t was then gradually
reduced and put on full force again
The voltage was then decreased gradu-
ally and turned off after forty-six
seconds. Foy's body scarcely moved
and the physicians said death was the
easiest of the kind they had ever wit
messed. The body was taken to Sara
toga for burial by Foys father.
[Foy was an Englishman, 26 years old Miss
Wilson, who came from Philadelphia, first met
him Mt Saratoga, where the couple fell violent
ly in love with each other and agreed TO live
together. FOy was n dissipated man and he
and the girl had frequent quarres over
men whom Foy declared were paying at-
tention to her. On May l3 1892, Foy bought
revolver and started out with the intention OF
shooting the woman. He met her on the street
and, cursing her for her alleged faithlessness,
shot her in the back, and when she fell shot
her twice in the head. She died the next day.l

affairs, made an important announce
ment Tuesday night at Glasgow.
Mr.. Asquith rectiied the gen
eral impression formed after the
delivery of Mr.. Gladstone's speech
at Edinburgh recently, that the home
rule question would be revived during
the coming session of parliament. The
home secretary, continuing, said
that though home rule would al
ways be kept in view by the gov
ernment, the next session of the
house of commons would be devoted to
realization of the Newcastle pro-
gramme This really means that the
fears of the friends of home rule have
been realized and that the great Irish
question will be shelved for some time

DIscREDlT STONES STORY.
Two of Those He duplicates In the Wrat
tan Murder Can Prove an Alibi.

WASHINGTON, Ind, Oct. 25.-Yarbor-
ough, one of the men whom Bud Stone
implicated in the murder of the Wrat-
tan family on the night of September
IS, has admitted number of points
made by Stone. He admits that
the men had previously planned to
rob old Mrs. Wrattan. There is pre-
vailing opinion here that Stones state
ment that the six men were present the
night of the murder is not true. Two
of them-White and Clarll-can prove
by good witnesses that they were else
where at the time of the butchery
and it is thought Cosby will be
able to explain his whereabou is
in an acceptable way. Stone in all
appearances was not aided by more
than one or two others and possibly
murdered the family alone. The blood
on his clothes was not smeared on, as
he insists, but it is in spots as though it
had splashed on the garments. Stones
wife has been threatened with violence
for having withheld the secret so long
and has been brought here for safety.
She claims she would have revealed all
she knew but for fear of her husbands s
wrath

CHICAGO, Oct. 2b-Henrietta Kimball,
1s years old, living at 9sO6 Sedan av-
enue, South Chicago, committed suicide
by throwing herself into the lake at
the foot ofNinety eighth street, Sunday
morning. Insane with grief over his
daughters rash act Andrew Kimball
on Monday followed her example;
and, choosing the same kindly waters
in which his daughter ended her earth
ly suiferings, drowned himself. He
had chosen the exact spot where his
daughters body was found. Mrs. Kim
balls mind gave way under the double
blow, and it is feared her reason may
never be restored, Another daughter,
who haa been ill for some time, was
seriously affected by this triple misfor-
tune ind she shows signs of wandering
in her mind.
The family can imagine no reason for
Hettys self-destruction. She was of
| cheerful disposition, and her physical
health was good so far as was known.
1t is thought she may have overtaxed
her nervous strength by her musical
studies, in which she was indefatigable.
