work, in which portable telephone fig
ured prominently, was developed to-day

DR.. Jams, prominent physician. had

when his wife received letter about the
matter. Toas, the doctor said,
FRANKLY ADMITTED WRITING
the letter when no witnesses were pres
ent, but denied all knowledge of it, when
others we're about. At last, on the advice
of Attorney Luther Latin Mills, DR..
Jams fitted small telephone in his hat,
with a gold wire trailing behind, which
connected with a telephone outside the
lawyers Office, at which two receivers were
stationed, detective and a stenographer.
Entering the lawyers office, DR.. Jams

Anarchist KOlb.

Birmingham, Ala, Dec. 6.-R. F. Kolb,
who claims to be governor of Alabama,
has issued message to the legislature,
which he signs as governor. The mes
sage is also addressed to the people of
Alabama, and is long and in many re-
spects revolutionary document, as it
recommends that his followers dc not
pay their taxes for awhile. He further
says:
II further advise those collectors who
value the cause represent, and which
will assuredly prevail, to delay all pay
ment of state taxes into the state treas
ury until an impartial hearing IS had of
our complaint, under fair and honest
contest law"
When it is remembered that the tax
collectors in thirty-eight out Of sixty-six
counties in the state are Kolbites, it will
be seen that if they take his advice the
Kolb government will find strong sup
port and Alabama will be threatened with
anarchy.

Life Insurance.

Topeka, Kas., Dec. 6.-The story of
the capture in Arizona of Hillman, the
man who insured heavily and then, as
was supposed, died, is not received in
Topeka with much credence. Assistant
State Insurance Commissioner Taylor
said: "Hillman is dead and has been for
sixteen years. The insurance companies
are simply trying to defraud his wife out
of $4,000 life insurance. l suppose they
hope to get case which is set for next
month continued again." E. f. Ware,
one of the attorneys for the insurance
company, gave the information: ono
continuance will be asked for by the
companies. We have received numerous
messages from Arizona by parties claim
ing to have arrested Hillman. These
kilograms are indefinite and unsatisfac-
tory and the chances are against the cap
ture of the real Hillman. However, these
men, who are

for a reward of $4,000, think they have
Hillmau and have requested requisition
papers and witnesses. D. E. Palmer, of
this office, left Topeka two days ago with
papers from the governor and was accom-
panied by two men, one of whom is w.
NJ. Nichols, of Valley Falls, both of whom
claim they could identify Hillman."
Nichols, one of the witnesses who left
Topeka Tuesday, says: "The man who
was killed at Medicine Lodge in 1873 was
not Hilman, as l have testified at every
trial of the case and propose again to
testify at the trial next month"

livered "A lecture at the Savage club on
The Lost Continent" DR.. Sharpe first
illustrated the zoo geographical regions
OF tine world, with their peculiar forms
OF bird life, and explained the occurrence
OF isolated forms in different portions of
the globe by the existence of a former
land connection now vanished beneath
the sea. The idea of an ancient tropical
continent at the soush pole uniting South
America, Madagascar and Australia is
arousing considerable interest and dis
cussion in scientific circles al the present
time. chiefly owing to the support which
it has received from the recent discov-
cries in the Chatham islands of Mr.. II.
