a 3I4.-..-.. 80 sllt sentence.

During the cholera scare in Vienna
some months ago rule was made for
bidding persons visiting restaurants to
squeeze small rolls on the tables to test
their freshness. One day an army cap
tain went to one table after another,
handling the bread before he selected a
roll. a master baker, also a visitor,
spoke to him aboutit. The captain gave
a naughty answer, waited for the baker
outside and stabbed him. The victim
died instantly.
The bakers death caused a great
commotion. The funeral was attenled
by many thousands and proved that the
peoples sympathies were with him,
Now the officer has been sentenced to
Six months arrest in barracks, and he
will be permitted to keep his rank when
he has finished his term. One cannot
help wondering what the sentence might
have been had the baker stabbed the
officer. vienna Letter.

being the same as is now used in print

Rastanasi,s Cspture.

The notorious Corsican bandit, b.

Latin and had belonged to the medica
profession. On one occasion he was
going to Sartene on a vessel which
stopped at Ajaccio. Knowing that the
gendarmes were after him, he did not
attempt to land, but as he had a fine
voice and could also play the guitar to
beguile the time Of waiting he got out
his instrument and began to sing and
play. A fisherman in the port recog-
nized the voice and likewise remem-
bered the song. He went and informed
the authorities, and it was thus tlaFeeeas4A tia ca Il

A Great Question which Is Agitating the
British House of Commons.
The great question whether walters
ought todbe tipped is just now agitating
the ho7se OF commeps good deal more
than the fight with the lords over the
employers liability and parish councils
bills, Of which, truth 90 tell, everybody
is getting bit tired. But the tip ques-
ton affects the private pockets of the
honorable members. and their interest
in it is consequently keen. 1t has al
ways been tho rule in the commons that
the walters in the dining rooms should
not receive tips because living wages
are paid to them, but Of late years tip
ping has pretty generally prevailed,
and the men learned to expect tips as
much as though they were common cafe
walters. A goodly proportion of the
members, however, refused to counte-
nance the system, with the result that
they have of late found themselves neg
lected. Recently there have been SO
many complaints that the kitchen COM
m1ttee solemnly appointed a subcommit'
tee to inquire, and the result was the
issuing of az order prohibiting walters
from receiving tips and granting to
each waiter an increase of a shilling a
day. The walters calmly pocket the
shilling, but continue to take the tips
whenever they get chance, and it has
become a question what shall be done
with the honorable and right honorable
gentlemen who thus defy committees
and subcommittees.-Ne York Suns

THE CHILDREN BURNED UP.
A Father and Mothers Sad Expert
ence at Calumet.

HAMMOND, April s.-A fire, in which
three children, aged, respectively, two,
six and twelve years. lost their lives,
occurred in Calumet. a small station on
the Nickel Plate, four miles south of
here, today.
The victims are the children Of Ed
ward Price, a section foreman on the
road.
The fire started in the front room and
in a short time the entire two stories
of the building We're a mass of flames.
When the fire broke out there were
nine persons in the house.
Mrs. Price escaped with her infant
and was followed by her husband, who,
when he saw that the children were in
the burning building. rushed into the
flames and was fearfully burned in the
face and body.
He did not reach the children, who
were asleep on the first floor.
In the second story were three sec
ton hands and a twelve-year-old boy,
but in their haste to escape the men for
got about the boy, and he was burned
to death.
The woman is frantic with grief.
The cause of the fire is unknown.
The doctors say that Price will die.
The eharred remains Of the three chill
dren We're found under the debris and
taken to Wanatah for burial.
The house was owned by the railway
company and was situated in an isolated
place, with not another house within
two miles.

TEN YEARS IMPRISONMENT.
Conclusion of the Augusta Schmidt
Trial in the Howard Court.

Trial in the Howard Court.
KOKOMO. April 3.-Special.-The YER
dict in the Augusta Schmidt murder
case. fixing the punishment at imprlson-
ment for ten years. is generally regard
ed here with surprise.
An early conclusion Of the jury with
a like sentence, would have been re-
ceived with some establishment. though
there has never been a doubt in the
general mind as to the woman's guilt 1t
was the popular speculation that a SEN
tence Of from three to five years would
be imposed. and after the jury had been
out for seventy hours it was generally
believed that an agreement could not
be reached.
A motion for a new trial will be made
tomorrow, which will be promptly over
ruled. This will be followed by an APP
peal. The defense would have accepted
five years and been satisfied but the
length OF the term imposed opens the
whole fight anew, and the contention
will be carried to the bitter end.
The convicted woman has money and
friends and they will stay by her to the
last. There has been an utter indiffer-
ence as to the woman's fate in this
city and the verdict of the jury is re-
ceived without comment.
Mrs. Schmidt is the daughter of the
late Baroness Schindling of the province
of Zwickua, Saxony she quarreled with
Oscar Walton, one of her tenants, last
October and shot him dead as he stood
in his doorway. She was indicted pr

LEBANON, April 6.-Confdence men

firm, and, as Simeon was the proud
owner OF eight hundred acres, a part Of

trouble i'm reaching an agreement. The
firm was to receive 200 acres of Mantell' s
best land, for which il was TO pay $4,000
cash. Dobblns paid Mantell 800 10 bind

last Monday TO perfect the trade. Moth

and s2l00 I'm cash. Dobbins then left,
saying he had an appointment in Frank

few days to transfer the land.
