DRAINED BY THE NURSE
MURDER OF A DETROIT DENTIST
IN HIS HOME.
An UnfaithfuI Wife and InsuraDce Money
the Cause of the Fatal
Deed.

DETROIT, Feb. 2.-Dr. Horace E. Pope,
a dentist, was killed this morning by
William Brusseau, Mrs. Pope's nurse.
Brusseau says he found Pope sitting on
his wife'a bed holding cloth saturated
with chloroiorm over her mouth, and
the doctor fred at him. but missed.
The nurse seized Ratchet and buried
it in Pope's skull.
Unlawful relations between Brusseau
and Mrs. Pope are said to have caused
frequent and bitter quarrels between
the Popes, and the police believe this
led to the murder.
1t has been learned that Mrs. Pope
urged her husband to place q heavier
insurance on his life. He accordingl v
had been injured for $4,000, and ie W
days ago transferred the payment of tn g
policies from the estate to his wife.

The earliest bank note in the posses
sion of the Bank of England is one dat
ed Dec 10, 1899, for 9555. 1t is printed
from an engraved plate, but it has
blanks for the amount, date, number
and signature. Across it are written
memoranda showing that it was repaid
in three installments. In appearance it
is not altogether unlike the modern
note. 1t is noticeable particularly that
in the words, "For the Govr. and Com
pa. ;" the word company" is thus abb
breviated and not into comp" which
would be more in accordance with the
usual practice. In the bank library is
another note for e25, which was not
presented for III years. Another curl
osity, said to be unique is a note for no
less than 81, 900, 900, dated 1852. Only
four for such an amount have ever been
issued. Strand Magazine.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 2.-In the Senate

favorable report on a substitute for
the Chicago public building bill as
passed by the house. A bill passed
granting a right of way to the ella VAL

objection stated in the presidents veto
of a previous measure OF the same
character.
The financial question again made it's
appearance and Hale, Republican of
Maine, Chandler Republican OF New
Hampshire, and Aldrich OF Rhode
Island, took occasion to deny with en-
phasis the reports that there was any
desire on the Republican side to secure
delay on the appropriation bill in order
to cut off financial and other bills.

Woman's franchise.

In Chicago not only are The Tribune,
The Inter Ocean and other leading dali
ly papers hearty in their approval Of
women's voting, but nonpartisan and
religious papers also The Northwest
ern Christian Advocate says:
We hear of no place being selected as
q room for registration worse than a CT
gar store. One well known lady said
that the store was not horrible, sit be-
ing like any other place for merchan-
disc" Another woman said that her
visit to the registry was like going to
the postoffice. - In all instances the
judges ceased to smoke when the ladies
entered. At one place the official in
charge "handed to each woman fine
large white rose. /" These experiences
are quite in contrast with the lugubri-
GUS prophecies of the social ruin to fol.
low the gift of franchise to our sisters.
If the women are treated so handsome
ly when they go to the polls to select
only school officers, what will be their
welcome when their suffrages are sought
ON all controlling issues? The woman's
franchise means more human peace and
not war.

ST. LOUIS, Feb. I'm the eyes of the
law when A. B. Carpenter stole an un-
willing kiss from Mrs. Sarah M, Pierce
he committed an assault upon her and
by the hand of the Law for his ungsllsnt
conduct he will be obliged to pay her as
balm $500.
This seems a lsrge sum to part with
for the pleasure of just one kiss,
especially when it is remembers that
these fsvors may bs obtained gratis if
sought after in proper manner. but
Carpenter was injudioious. He grabbed
it from one unsmitten with his charms,
from one whose kisses belonged to az
other. and now the courts have mulcted
him right seriously.
The ofense for which Carpenter will
have to pay 30 dearly occurred on
Augusta, 1892, and the legal proceedings
arising from It have been dragging
along ever since. After listening to all
the ev idsnce a jury in the st. Louis
county circuit court returned a verdict
in favor of the plain liff for $500, just
half the sum asked for.
The case was a most stubbornly con-
tested one. 1t had been tried once be-
fore and resulted in hung jury.

any insinuations, he said, they should
be against those who were standing
