June was the day set for commencing
the most daring and difficult engineering
work of the period, the construction Of
an electric railway to the summit Of the
Jungfrau mountain. which pierces the
clouds at an elevation of 1900 feet above
the sea- The line, which will be nearly
seven and five-eighths miles in length, will
start at an elevation of $500 feet above
sea level, and will be largely bored through
solid rock, the total length of tunnels
being five miles, one of these being nearly
two miles long. The cost of the road
is estimated at 81, 600 900, and it is expected
that it will take five years to build it.

4-year-old child. When the girl entered
the room she saw Mrs. Shannon, as she
thought, preparing her toilet. She
spoke pleasantly, but was surprised at
receiving no reply. She walked over to
the mirror and laid her hand on the
woman, and then it was that she dis
covered that she was dead. She gave
the alarm, and in short time the neigh
borhood was aroused.
Coroner Harr was hastily summoned.
and the body was not disturbed until
his arrival. A score of people crowded
into the room, gazing in awe struck
silence at the silent figure in front of the
mirror. DR.. Hsrr pronounced the case
one OF the most remarkable on record.
He says the woman had been dead sew
eral hours. How it happened that she
did not fall to the floor is what is most
surprising. The doctor is of the opinion
that the woman was posing before the
mirror when she was stricken with
death. She was OF prepossessing face
and figure.

The New German IroncIad Has Been

KEEL, April 5.-The new German IRON
clad, which until to-day was designated
simply by the letter T, was christened
Aegir with great pomp and ceremony by
Emperor William. There were anchored
in the harbor eight ironclads, four
training ships and two cruisers, all
dressed in flags and bunting, and the
togn itself was profusely decorated. In
christening the new ship the emperor
said:
I'm token Of the industry of the faith
erland this vessel, after strenuous toll.
now stands before us about to be given
over to the elements. Thou shalt now
be placed in line among the protecting
lighting units Of the German navy. Thou
shalt serve for the protection of the
fathcrland and meet the enemy with
defiance and disdain. Sprung from the
old German sagas are the ships which
belong to the first-class. Therefore.
shalt thou likewise recall to us the gray
past OF our ancestors and the puissant
deity whom our Germanic forefathers in
their ignoranee supplicated and wor-
shipped, and whose mighty kingdom
extended to the icy north pole and as
far south as the south pole, and on
whose billows the northern battles were
fought out and death carried into the
land OF the enemy. The potent name of
this great deity thou shalt bear. Mayst
thou prove worthy thereof. / christen
thee 'Aegir.'"

Florida by Law.
MESSAGE OF GOV. MITCHELL

He Urges the Legislature to Make Laws
That VIII Keep Thugs out OF the
stste-The Lotteries Also Meet His
DisspprovaI.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla, April A. - The
Florida legislature convened at IL O'Clock
to-day for its biennial session OF sixty
days. The legislature is overwhelmingly
democratic in both branches. Hon.
Fred Myers, of the eighth senatorial
district, was elected president OF the
senate, and Hon. W. S. Jennings, of
fernando county, speaker of the house.
Governor Mitchell's message was brief.
Under the head Of "Prizefghts,v the
governor said:
During the last year most disgrace
full and brutal fight OF this character
took place in the city of Jacksonville,
and parties who resort to this occupation
as means OF making living without
honest labor are boasting that there is
no law in this state to prevent such dis
graceful contests, and openly boast that
another one will be pulled OFF, at Jack
sonville next September, but, gentle
men, you have it in your power to pre-
vent this by proper legislation.
Il recommend that these prizefghts,
or glove contests, be made felonies by
statute, with such penalties attached as
will cause these thugs to respect the
laws and to respect the law-abiding,
T0d- fearing na0nla of thia afafa q, AZ
pursuit OF all their rights as citizens.
The law should authorize sheriffs
and those acting in their aid and assist
ance, when they have cause to believe
that prizefght or glove contest is about
to take place, to enter any house or en-
closure or any place wherein they may
have reason to believe that such contest
is to take place, for the purpose OF ar
resting those engaged or about to en-
gage therein.
Also, that all persons who may be
present at such contest, in any wise aid,
ing or abetting the same, by betting
thereon or by being present thereat shaH
he deemed guilty of felony, and upon
conviction be punished the same as the
principals"
Relative to lotteries, the governor
says:
There has been much said in the
newspapers about lottery at Port Tam
pa, as to the truth OF which | have no
knowledge, but respectfully recommend
that the law against lotteries be so
as to clear that institution out
Of the state, if here, and to prevent
others from being located in the state"

BEYOND EXPECTATION.
Income Tax Returns Are in Every Way
Satisfactory.

Satisfactory.
WASHINGTON, April 5.-Income tax
returns are coming in far beyond the
expectations of officials. To save time
and avoid complications, collectors we're
instructed to certify and send returns
the 10th Of each month, and therefore
no reports have been received of date
later than March 10. Nevertheless TO-.
600 returns have been received and are
being recorded and verified. It is esti-
mated that returns made to collectors
prior to March 10 represent at least
y, ,5OO,UUO income tax, and the actual
amount returned to April l will aggre-
gate 100000. 1t is not expected re-
turns to any considerable number will
be made before the 9Th or 10th of April.
five days before the time limit expires
hence the showing is exceedingly graft.
Tying to those having the matter in
charge.
Another matter of congratulation is
the little difficulty being ex perienced by
taxpayers in filling out blanks. All
things considered, the work of collecting
the tax is going forward with very little
friction. 1t is expected that at least
$z0,OO,0OO income tax will be collected
by June l, the close of the fiscal wear.
Officials do not express any doubts that
the supreme court will sustain all the
important features OF the law, il not the
entire act as it stands, and are pushing
the work as rapidly as is consistent with
accuracy.

NEARING THE END.
Sealing on the Northwest Coast Will
Cease April so.

Sealing on the Northwest Coast viii
Cease April so.
VICTORIA, B. c., April 5.-Under the
international sealing agreement sealing
on the coast will cease April 80, and the
present prospects indicate that the catch
for the first half of the season will be
very light. 1t has been the old story OF
rough weather, making it impossible to
hunt seals when the herds hsve been To-
Gated. Ten days ago the highest catch
reported was S26, which at current
price would not pay expenses. The
weather may improve off the coast in
the next three weeks, but it will be ex-
ceptional luck if the schooners pull IN.
1t is too early to venture q prediction on
the seasons work, as everything de-
pends upon the second half of the sea-
SON, in the autumn, and the luck in
Asiatic waters. No reports have been
received from the Asiatic coast as to the
conditions and the number of seals, and
those from this coast are vet quite
meager. Seals have been running very
well off the islands, but the weather, as
stated, has kept the hunters on board OF
the schooners.

SALEM, April 81. Loewenberg has
been in consultation with the governor
and the board managing the peniten-
tiary stove foundry. Mr.. Loewenberg
offered to lease the foundry for three
years at $1,000 per annum, but was not
willing TO contract for the convict labor
at 80 cents per day, the wages fixed by
the last legislature, and no agreement
was reached. The governor alone has
control OF the convicts and the board
manages the foundry. Mr.. Loewenberg
will submit written proposition for q

He Thought IL Sensible In Finding Him
Guilty.
SPOKANE, WASH, April 4.-The re.
markable scene was witnessed here to-
day OF prisoner thanking q jury for
sending him to the penitentiary. 1t
was in the Siegel case. siegel is an ec-
centric farmer from Whitman county,
who has killed one man and threatened
many others. A few days ago he shot
and severely wounded Edward Enwald,
from the court house steps in this city.
For this he was placed on trial and to-
day was found guilty OF shooting with
intent TO kill. He said:
Gentlemen OF the jury, / thank YOU
for your sensible conclusion. l am
guilty, but not insane. I'd rather be in
hell than lunatic asylum"
The court had named two Young at.
torneys to defend Siegel, and they put
in plea OF insanity, which Siegel
greatly resented. After the trial he
said to one OF them:
"l'll kill you on sight when | get out
OF this"
Siegel then took his case into his own
hands and gave formal notice of his in
tention to move for new trial.
