Cleveland, Ohio, June 80. People
passing along Ontario street to-day
We're startled by the piercing screams
Of a NJ Which came from the
roof Of Il restaurant known as the
New Wright house. Looking in the
direction from which the noise came
they saw Il woman entangled in he
telephone and electric light wires
forty feet above the ground. Her
clothing was On fire and she was loud
ly calling for help. Several men :an
up the stairs leading to the roof, and
Thomas Bell, a stereotyper in the en-
ploy of the World. assembled by the
fire escape. Bell reached the UNI
fortunate woman as 0 o as the other
men, and together they released her
from her perilous predicalncnt. Just
as they had succeeded in releasing
her, Bell caught hold of one Of the
wires with his hands. In an instant
he was writing in pain. Somebody
had presence of mind to cut the wire,
but that did not save Bell. He fell
head downward to the fire escape, a
coil Of wire being about his hips and
holding him suspended in the air. He
screamed for help, and for a time it
seemed that he would be burned to
death by the flames that were playing
about his body. He was finally re-
leased, aud, together with the woman,
was sent to the hospital. The latter,
whose name is Ruth Johnson, will die,
her arms and legs being burned to a
crisp. Bell, though badly burned, will
ecover. The woman, who was a
waitress, had gone to the roof of the
building to see a fire which was burn
ing a block away, She leaned cut
! over the roof to get a better view, and
in doing SO grasped the electric light
wires with her hands.

GOING TO PIERRE.
Ex-TREASURER TAYLOR IS ON HIS
RETURN HOME.
He Arrives in Chicago, and After a
Consultation With Interested

render, Starts for South Dukotn

Chicago, June 10. - w. w. Taylor.
the eX-state treasurer Of South Da-
kota, arrived here yesterday and left
last night ON the Northwestern train
for Pierre, S. D., where he will give
himself up. 1t was Il little over four
months ago that Taylor passed
through Chicago on his way to the
tropics, where he has successfully
evadcd a cohort Of detectives which
never quit his trail from the day that
he left South Dakota. He is sunDurned
and from his travels and
troubles, and expressed himself to
friends as very glad that he was re-
turning home to settle up the matter
at the cost Of liberty. Later it was
learned that Taylor did take quarters
at the Palmer house, but under an
assumed name to avoid annoyance.
The eX-state treasurer denied inter-
views to all outsiders, and would not
give the slightest information about
his travels.
During the day he was in %consulta-
ton with Attorney General Crawford
and his attorney, d. X. Tenny, about
the details of the terms upon which he
has returned. 1t is said that Taylor
will turn over all the money he has
on hand, amounting to $4,000, and his
property, and that the remainder of
the defalcation, amounting to about
$4,000 will be paid by his bondsmen.
The committee of adjustment will
comprise Gov. Sheldon, Attorney Cen
eral Crawford ard Land Commission
er Lockhart. By the understanding
Taylor will then plead guilty, and take
a two years. sentence with the as
surance of a pardon before the expira-
ton of his term of imprisonment in
order to save his citizenship.

will be noticed that the name Of Mr.

bank through the clearing house, but
it's worthless character was recognized

They do some things better in Eng
land than we do them in this country.
For example. the Wilde case shows
how much swifter justice is with therd
than with us. The Marquis of Queens
berry was arrested for criminal libel
March 6, and tried three weeks later.
In forty-eight hours the trial was end
ed, and three hours later Wilde vas
under arrest. Three weeks elapsed,
and he was tried; and his second
trial occurred a month later. Thus,
the time between the arrest of Queens
berry and the conviction of Wilde, in
Guiding three jury trials, was only ten
weeks.

Kitten by Mad Dogs and the Cattle
Are shot,.

Grand Island. Neb., June 1S,-1n the
northwestern part Of Adams county,
in the vicinity of the farm of Fred
Ernest, hydrophobia in animals has
caused a great loss of cattle. injury to
man and much anxiety. Two men
have been bitten AMI compelled to go
to Wymour, where a maidstone was
applied, and over forty cattle belong
ing to Ernest have been shot after
showing symptoms of hydrophobla.
In January a COW was bitten by a
mad dog. 1t died and was not buried,
but hauled to some out-of-the-way
place. "A dog of the neighborhood con-
sumed some of the carcas. About May
it was noticed the other cattle
showed symptoms of h%ydroplobia.
Then it was that Ernest's first bovine
showed the disease. and was shot.
Forty head more have since been lost
in the same manner.
A war was commenced on the dogs
in the district. Only one dog is left
and he will soon join his comrades.
Three hogs belonging to Ernest were
also bitten. One of these had ex-
tensive tusks, and Frank Ernest. Il son
about twenty-four years of age, was
scratched by one of the tusks. AS a
consequence he vas compelled to go to
Waymour where the poison was ex-
tracted. Then a neighbor, while bury
ing a cow which had been shot, al
lowed some of the animals saliva to
touch a scratch on his hand. and he,
too, went to Waynlour. He remained
there until he was thought to be safe
and returned home. He has since
shown signs of hydlophobia and seri-
GUS consequences are feared. Despe.
rate efforts have been made to clear
the neighborhood of all animals IT,

The Textile Manufacturers Review
announces that the new invention in
weaving, doubling the number %
looms n operative can manage, is an
undoubted success, and that the weav-
ing industry will be placed under new
conditions. The device supplies the
loom automatically with from fourteen
to twenty shuttles at a time, feeding
a new bobbin when necessary and
connecting the thread without the
loom stopping at all. A cay will
thus be enabled to tend sixteen ma
chimes as easily al he could look after
eight under the old plan. In Fall
River alone the saving will be 100000
a year. The invention is of interest
to weavers all over the world, as IL
gives American looms u new advan-
tage.
