ANOTHER TERRIBLE CRIME.-San
Francisco is surely taking the lead in
atrocious horrors. On the heels o! the
Emmanuel church tragedy, comes
another of murder and suicide in
Laurel Hill Cemetery. Mrs. Jennie
Mathews, vile of q street-car conduc-
tor, died Sunday from the effects OF
strychnine, which she was forced to
swallow by Chas. H. Crowell, Secretary
of the burial place. The account
says: Crowell had made improper
proposals to the woman while she was
visiting the grave of her two children
in the cemetery. She resisted, and he
then forced her to take the pill, tax
ing one himself at the same time.
The police have as yet been unable to
locate him, and it is believed his body
will be found somewhere in the ceme-
tery

Mr. Carlisle's next point was that, I'M

Finally, Mr.. Carlisle frankly said that

that at that time he made a mistake.

An Instance Showing That the Birds

sWhile walking along the street in

Chicago, 81 witnessed an incident
that illustrated the sympathetic ma
ture of birds. AS l was walking along
I noticed a little sparrow futtering
on the ground and apparently unable
to rise. I stopped and was on the
point of going to'it to ascertain if pos
sible the cause Of its trouble, when
all at once I noticed two full grown
sparrows fly down from a neighboring
tree and a1ight on the ground near
by. I watched with a good deal of
interest to see what they would do.

picked up a little bare twig about
three inches long. The old bird took
hold Of one end of the stick with his
beak, while its companion took hold
of the other end in the same manner.
They then approached the young bird,
that still huttered helplessly on the
ground, and it caught hold of the
middle of the stick with it's beak.
The old birds then flew up to a tree,
carrying the young bird hanging to
the stick between them to a place Of
safety

Conington, KY, May 1.-THE secre-;s
tary Of the United States treasury Jno.
g. Carlisle, opened h discussion of the
question OF Sound money here last
night. Mr.. Carlisle began his speech
by giving q review OF the administers
ton Of h government since Mr.. Cleve-
land began his first term. He then
plunged directly into the silver Ques-
ton, first giving a review of the coin
age legislation to show that there, was
nothing surreptitious In the demoneti-
cation act of 1873. He said silver is no
demonetized in his country, but its
coinage has been so limited and regu-
lated by law and the financial affairs
or n government have been so con-
Quoted that UP to the present time it's
purchasing power has been preserved
and its circulation to a large amount
has been maintained concurrently with
other forms of money. Notwithstanding
1T has been coined at a ratio which does
not conform to the real value of the
metal contained in it. He said the free
coinage of silver at the ratio of l6 to-
would drive out gold and simply mean
silver monometallism, and cut down the
unit of value about one-half.
Mr.. Carlisle contended that a drop to
q silver basis would not advance prices

Supreme Court Decision.

Supreme Court Decision.
London, May 22,-The London news
papers very generally comment upon
the decision of the supreme court of
the United States declaring the income
tax unconstitutional. The editorial in
the Times on the subject says: A
things stand, the weight of authority
falls upon the same side as the weight
of numbers. The practical result is that
direct taxation must fall upon the citi-
zen in direct proportion to his voting
power, without reference to the amount
of his property.
The Chronicle says: 1.-THE loss of e.
600, 900 revenue must still further de-
range American finances, but the mill
%lionaires have escaped the net and the
people generally will be compelled to
make up the deficit. 1t is a strange
comment on American democracy and
on the limitations of tile American con
Etitution.'

The report of Grand Secretary Shea

with risks of $500, $500 and $1,000. He
explained the reasons for the deficit in
the general fund and how this could be
met through grand dues. In speaking
of the loss IL membership he charged
it to the hard times principally. He
sharply criticised the leaders of the A.
r. u. and those responsible for the late
big railroad strike, which ne considered
unjust. In the evening a public recep-
ton was held at the opera house n
was largely attended. Governor Alt
geld was present and made a lengthy
address to the delegates. He was fol-
lowed by T.. S. Coffin, Grand Master

put Constantine on the throne, and
an immense crowd gathered before the

support three regiments OF troops who
had pledged themselves to carry out
the plot.
Nicholas ordered several regiments
to face the rioters, and rode forth sur
