late hour, and then covered with blood

he, at midnight, yielded to the over
lures and told the story about as fol-
lows:
Knowing that Mrs. Wrattan kept
great deal of money about the house.
Grandson Cosby, a notorious character
in the country, planned robbery. His
gang was notified of the plan. Their
names are Lon Williams. Martin
Yarder, William Kaigs, John w. White,
Gipp Clark and James Stone.
at the time of the robbery Cosby was
go drunk that he did not reach the
house at all, but Stone arrived after the
murder was committed, and because he
was late the other conspira.ors wallowed
him in the blood Of the victims, and in
that condition permitted him to go
home. Stone does not know why they
killed the Wfattan family.
All the criminals, as mentioned above,
were arrested and taken to Jefferson

BUILDING A NAVY.
Chief Constructor Hfchborn Tells of
the Work in a Report.

Chief Constructor Hichborn Tells of
the Work in n Report.
In his annual report Chief Naval Con-
structor Hichborn says that at the begin
ming Of the administration of the late chief
of the bureau of construction and repair
Commodore Wilson) the navy consisted Of
a comparatively small number of obsolete
wooden steam and sailing vessels and half
a dozen small iron gunboats. Since that
time there have been added to the navy
forty-five vessels. aggregating $4,000 tons
displacement, and costing for hulls and ma
chinery alone more than s52ooo,0oe These
vessels embrace almost every variety of
type OF modern vessels Of war, and the ex-
cellence Of their design and construction
has been the subject of most pronounced
commentator by naval architects who
stand at the head of their profession in the
principal maritime countries of Europe.
oI During the year the Monterey, the Ban
Machias have had their official trial trips,
the results" says Commodore Hichborn
in all cases being satisfactory to the gov
eminent trial board. and demonstrating the
ability Of our ship builders to turn out the
highest grade Of work" Good progress
mas been made on vessels in course Of con-
struction during the past year, although
there has been some delay due to the de-
ferred deliveries Of armor plates. This
cause OF delay. however. is being gradually
eliminated by the armor contractors, and
1t Is expected that they will soon be able
to furnish armor promptly so as not to re-
tard the other work of hull construction.
Vessels launched during the year were
the Columbia, the Marblehead, the Olympia,
the Cincinnati. the Katahdin, the Indiana,
the Massachusetts and the MINNEAPOLIS. and
or these the Columbia and the Marblehead
are preparing for their acceptance trials
and will soon be added to the effective feet
OF the navy. The Olympia and the Cincin-
natl will probably have their trials within
the next year.

Some Of the pieces on exhibition contain

to be Of greater bodily development than
the celestials
Some of these figures represent warriors
In fantastic uniform, while others give one
some idea of various classes of celestials.
In a room adjoining the one where these
are kept the ceremonies are performed. At
one end is group Of idols Enthusiastically
formed, and near 1t Is a table on which are
dishes of beans, cheese and all kinds Of
food. The edibles are placed there as an

What Becomes of Old Car Horsesf

Naturally one would think that the dis
position of between 1900 and 1000 horses
in less than a years time would have a
marked effect on prices, but such has not
been the case II those who are best able to
Judge speak truly-and who would doubt
the word Of dealer in horsefesh? These
car horses make excellent farm horses,
and most Of those that have been sold have
been bought by farmers on Long Island, in
Connecticut, New Jersey or towns along
the Hudson river. The prices paid for these
horses range from $50 up to SIPS. Mr. Bo-
gardus said that there were many horses
owned by the company that they would not
sell for $500, they were good, stout truck
horses, which could not be obtained in the
open market at that price today
The horses were sold singly to any buyer
who would pay the value Of the animal
Sometimes a dealer would purchase a lot of
five, ten or twenty, and occasionally lot
of 100 or 200 would be put up and sold at
auction. Hucksters and grocers in the
city were also among the purchasers.

Saturdays Special Race.


Eight thousand people went out to Haw-

Yo Tambien win in a gallop from Lamp
lighter. 1t was not the big match race
that the crowd expected to see, but a spe-
cial event at one and one-eighth miles. in
which each party put up a side bet Of
$1,000 and the association added $780,
1t was a race that is easily described.
70 Tambien simply ran away from him.
Passing the stand she had two lengths the
best of it. There was no change in the DO
sitions until the lower turn. when Taral
tried to move up with Lamplighter, but
at the same time Doggett also let out a
link in the mare and she went away still
further. Taral did not persevere long He
saw that unless Yo Tambien fell down she
would win, so he gave it up and stopped
urging Lamplighter. Doggett looked and
seeing that he had a mortgage on the race
took wrap on the mare and the finish
was a very slow one. pulling up less than
100 yards past the post. Time, 2:ol IL
