WELLINGTON, Mich, Dec. 3I.-For 80
years George Palmer and his wife have
lived together without jangling. Yes
terday morning the family, con-

Palmer seemed to be in good humor,
joking about hard times being past
and how we'll he got through them. The
five older children trudged OFF to their
work, leaving two little ones at home.
Two hours later the bodies Of Palmer
and his wife were found on the floor.
A sharp butcher-knife lay beside them.
1t was evident that Palmer had taken
his wife unawares and nearly severed
her head from her body with one blow
of the butcher-knife. Then he calmly
laid down beside her and cut his own
throat. No cause was known.

The TurkIsh Atrocitis..

CoNsTANTiNOPLE, Dec. SLIT now
seems definitely settled that the United
States minister, Alexander Terrell does
not intend to send anybody to make an
independent inquiry into the stories
told of Turkish atrocities in Armenia.
The motive Of this decision, It is be-
lieved, is probably because an inquiry
is not necessary, in view of the fact
that the powers signatory to the Ber-
lin treaty, particularly England, are
supervising the inquiry which is being
made on behalf OF the Turkish govern
meut.

End of Slavery In New York.

Governor John Jay, although a slave
holder was enlisted in a movement for
abolition, and In his third attempt before
the legislature secured the passage of an
act April, 1899, providing that all chill
dren born of slave parents after July 4
ensuing should be free. Slavery had grad
ually been mitigated In its severity, and
the number of slaves, 81, 903, was so small
In its ratio TO the total population, then
nearly / 900, 900, that the institution, had
lost much of its commercial and social
significance Then n declaration was adopt
ed in 1917 on the recommendation of Gov
ernor Tompkins, that all the inhabitants
of New York should be free after July 4,
1897.
Here is the language of the statute:
Section IS, title q of the Revised Stat
utes of the State of New York: Every
person born within this state, whether
white or colorcd, Is free; every person who
shall hereafter be born within this state
shall be free, and every person brought
into this state as "A slave, except as author.
lied by this title, shall be free" Section
provides that mo person held as slave
shall be imported, introduced or brought
into this state on any pretense whatever,
except in the case of fugitives from other
states or persons brought into the state in
voluntarily by captains Of vessels, etc. Ev
cry such person shall be free. Every per

lows some college victory. The merry
strains may be used to express his feelings
when he has been accepted by his best girl
and again he teaches 1t TO his boys as his
father taught il To him.
Yet IL is no exaggeration TO say that not
one out of "A hundred Yankee boys can tell
where the song originated, and should ne
