Another Quarterly Reviewer of the early
days was Sir Francis Head, and well do /
remember his CHEEKY face and kindly man
ner. The last timo 1 saw him he was hob
bling about on a pair of crutchcs, for he
had recently been suffering from q severe
attack Of shingles. His fcats of horseman-
ship across the pampas of South America,
as well as with the Quorn and the Pytch-
ley, are matters of history.
On this occasion he said TO me, For 52
years l never missed one day getting on
horseback until this malady attacked me,
and l attribute my wonderful good health
TO this constant practice" In order to OBJ
tain exercise while thus crippled he set up
a swing In his garden ON Duppas hill and
was swung by his old coachman.
"It is the next best thing to going across
country, " he said, land / can smell the
sea when the wind comes direct from the
South Downs"
1 believe he had his tombstone all
ready, prepared after his own design, sew
eral years before his death, and used TO
keep it in his ~coachhouse until it should
be required. IL now stands at the head OF
his grave, in tho pretty ohurchyard OF
Sanderstead, near Croydon. John Murray

LATEST
MURDER AND SUICIDE.
Trouble OF Long Standing Ends In "a
Horrible Tragedy.

WOODSTOCK, ILL.,, April 30.-William w.
Ellsworth, the famous breeder Of Poland
China hogs, has for some time been hav-
ing trouble with one of his hired men,
named George z. Filweber. Yesterday,
the trouble broke out airesh, and Els
worth became enraged.
Ellsworth, who was standing In the
door with a revolver in his hand, shot at
him four times. each shot taking effect.
Then selling "a shotgun and walking
to where the body Of Filweber
laid, Ellsworth deliberately dis
charged both barrels into the already
riddled body. After shooting Fill
weber, Ellsworth reloaded his gun
with fine shot, stepped up close
to where the body laid, placed
the stock OF his gun on the ground, looked
in the barrel n pulled the trigger. The
charge carried away the top of his head.
Elsworth's family connections are of the
best aud he was known far and wide.

"a cook asks the sympathy of the pub

dinner i served up to party of her friends
about a week before she gave INT the box
of cigarettes the university lad had left be-
hind and told me to give them TO Joseph
that's my young mans name. The tea
and the cake were very good, and Joseph
was in capital temper, and / am sure was

STRONG OPPOSITION.
States Adoption Of the Gold Cure
Discussed at State House.
Denounced by Physicians, Prohibi-
tionists and President Of w. e.. L. u.

There was a public hearing before the
House judiciary committee, today, on the
providing for the cure of drunk
ards at the State institutions by the
double bichloride OF gold treat
ment. At times the discussion was sug-
gestive OF an old fashioned temperance
experience meeting, and at others OF a
scientific debate. Mr.. Scott, the Trainer of
the bill, spoke first in It's favor, and
was followed by a number OF reformed
drunkards. Rev. Mr.. McBain opposed the
adoption OF the Kelley cure and advo-
Gated the Morrill, cure. Then the oppo-
sition to any and all secret cures, so called,

quently insanity for the unfortunate and
deluded victim. To adopt the measure
would be to make maniacs out OF drunk
ards.
DIR. McCaw c~orroborated the arguments
of DIR. Keene.
Mr.. James A. Williams, a leader of the
Prohibition party, strongly opposed it,
and pointed out the fact that there are
276 common drunkars at Cranston, TO cure
whom, at $50 a head, would cos s13,S00,
while the bill only provides for an APP
preparation of $4,000.
Mrs. Martin, president OF the Women's
Christian Temperance Union, opposed the
proposed legislation on the ground that
il would be Inconsistent and unjust.

ales-General Notes.
Special to The News.

NEW YORK, April 30.-The trade re-
ports that there have been no important
developments. Interests would not fore
cast the proceedings of today's meeting
of the sales agents. They said that the
unexpected is liable to happen. An
almost total lack of q demand at any price
is serving to keep producNon down.
However, there is a disposition among
the companies to mine all the
coal they can care for. The al
most universal belief in the street
that the coal market is near a solution,
in view of the pessin istic outlook from
the trade standpoint, is creating consld-
cradle comment and is leading many be-
livers to take the bull side.
III the tape tells the story, and it usually
does, the situation is far from demoraliza-
ton. A great deal depends upon Della
ware & Hudson and Lsckawanna. The
stand taken by the former last week to
smash prices and adopt a free-for-all
policy, If enforced, would, Of course,
p~recipitate a crisis. Since that
time 1t is understood that the
management has been influenced toward

fact is that Notwithstanding a week has
elapsed since the threat was made, ii has
