Trial OF Assassin Prenderrast.

CHICAGO. ILL.,. Dec. 13-The jury in the
case of Prendergast for the assassination
of Mayor Harrison having been secured,
the trial was begun this morning
with the opening address to the
jury on behalf of the state
by the assistant states attorney,
At the conclusion of the address Attorney
Wade began the opening address on be-
half of the defense. He said it would not
be denied that Prendergast killed Har-
rison. The only question at issue
would be. did he at the time know
the difference between right and wrong?
When Coachman Risberg was describing
how the assassin turned from his victim
and covered the witness with a revolver to
keep him at bay. Prendergast said to his
counsel in loud whisper: THAT is not
the way did it," William Preston Har-
rison. son of the murdered mayor, was a
witness TODAY.

Depcw on the Panic.

LONDON, Dec. 13.-The Financial Times
publishes an interview with Chauncey NJ.
Depew, who is quoted as saying: "Presi-
dent Cleveland was right and silver wrong.
The tariff need not cause any fear in re-
gard to American railroads. They will get
along all right" Explaining the recent
crisis. Depew said: business before the
panic of 1898 was being conducted in the
most conservative way within living men,
DRY. The panic was due TO the fact that
for the first time in thirty years presi.
dent was elected with free trade policy
and q possible majority OF both houses.
The majority which put Cleveland in was
composed OF ali the Heterogeneous elements
of the populace wanting to change the ex-
listing order of things"

The Feast of St. Barbara.

The feast of st. Barbara, like that
of St. Martin, is a soldiers fete in
Italy. The heroic girl, if we may
believe an old story Of the tenth cen
fury, was an angel Of beauty and vir-
tue, born in fortress where her
father, Dioscoro, was the governor
and also aid-de-camp to the emperor,
Macmillan. St. Barbara first saw
the light in Italy in her fathers beau
tiful villa near Scahdriglia, gift
from the emperor to his general, rich
with mineral waters, marvellous
plants, statues, etc, where she passed
the first few years of her life, and
where she became convert to the
Christian religion
The beautiful girl was hunted to
death, taken prisoner, her breasts
were cut off, and she was exposed to
brutal soldiers, who took possession
other, fastened her TO a stake, covered
her with qucklime and burned her
to death, and this she suffered rather
than renounce the religion she had
embraced. This, at least, is the leg
end, and the artillery and the engi-
neer regiments fete her as their pa
tron, to whom they show much re-
spect and gratitude, especially as
they have half the day free and dou

Whittier the Winds Bore Him.

It is said of an old time Maine
preacher, Father Blaisdell, who was
the pioneer missionary along the
Maine coast, that he would launch
his boat and sail before the wind, and
where the wind took him he would
land and preach. At one time, SO
the story goes, the wind bore him di-
rcctly toward Islesboro. Just be-
fore getting there, however, the wind
shifted and although he was within
a few rods of the land he turned his
boat and with the wind sailed off to
another town, where he landed held
meetings and started one Of tho
greatest revivals ever held under his
ministry. Rockland (Me.) Courier

Do Water wheels. RIM ulster Ut Night

Do Water Wheels Rum Fnster 1t Nights
For years the question whether
water wheels run faster at night
than during the day has been cata-
lpgued among the things which no
man can find out.
They do if they are so geared as to
be affected by the varying fullness
and speed of the current in which
they are set. There is no doubt that
all streams are fuller and all streams
carry more water at midnight than
they do at noon. In the first place,
the increased GOODNESS of the air pre-
vents evaporation and subsequent
drying up Of the smaller tributaries,
and, in thesecond place, the condensa-
ton of the moisture in the air in the
shape of dew is always sufficient to
add something to large streams and
their branches Heavy dews are often
so copious as to be almost equal to a
small shower of rain. We often hear
lewdrops falling from the overloaded
leaves and find all exposed objects as
wet as if they had Undergone shower
during the night. A large portion OF
this moisture must get into the mi
mute channels, which of course con-
duct it to mill streams
"Often," says Humboldt, the eff
feet upon shallow stream is very
noticeable indeed" If it is at all
noticeable" a wheel turned by such
a stream would 'go faster by night
than by day" -Indianapolis News.
