Woman is Seized and Killed, but q

From the Blackburn Times.
A correspondent at Madras gives a
graphic account Of an adventure with a
crocodile. He says: AS We were proceed
ing in our cutter up the Jumbo canal (Oris-
sal on the 18th ultinfo we'received the news
of a woman having been taken by mug
ger, and on comingot 10 the spot We tied up
and waited. IN the hope that the reptile
would come to the surface with its prey
in order to make a meal, as they are I'M
able to feed under water Presently there
was a subdued cry Of. "Mugger hoi, Sahib!"
fIom one of the boatmsn, and the man
added that 1t had the woman's body In its
mouth. We saw part OF its head and back
above water. and also the arm of its vic
tim protruding as it-swam along. evidently
looking for place to land. Our excite
ment was intense as We carefully followed
Its course and hoped for chance of
shot. The crocodile made foc the opposite
tank. but instead of going ashore 1t lay on
the long grasses and reeds In about four
feet of water. with the body in front Of il.
After waiting for some time to see IL the
reptile would land, and 1t seemed to

der cover Of the canal bund as near as he
dare without disturbing the mugger, as
their sense of hearing is very keen.
Peering over the top of the bund, he
could see its eyes and the frontal bone

was tremendous commotion, and the
crocodile relfnquished its prey and sank.

the monster had been hit, although the
commotion and the fact of it's having come

possible to fire again. The men then pro-
ceeded to search for the body of the
woman, and succeeded In landing it. The
corpse was that of woman abou. thirty

Held of Less Account by the LAW
Than Broken Legs.
From the London Daily News
In 10 instance does the profound diff
ference of national character in England
and France appear more striking Says
Our Paris correspondent than in the views
held on both sides of the channel regard
ing breach of promise. OF course, engage
ments are broken off in France as well
as in Engla Id, but it is only in England
that heavier damages are awarded for a
broken heart than for broken leg. The
offense Is all but unknown in the Fren III
law courts, whether it is that Frenchmen
are less inclined to it, or that the French
girl dislikes bringing her sentimental troa-
bles into court To show English readers
how incredibly prejudiced French persons
of both sexes are upon this subject, 1t is
enough to say that young lady who at
tempted to turn her wounded feelings into
cash would be regarded as only a degree
less mean than the faithless man.
The very small number Of suits for
ported by plea that the lady was put to
expense, and there must be besides evil
dence of an intent, to deceive Damages
In any case are very small beside the royal
amounts awarded by English juries. On
Saturday, however, an action for breach
of promise rAngfaise Was brought into
the third Paris police court The lady
a bill showing that they were ESQ out of
pocket for the broken engagement. They
might have had this but, badly advised
they put on another item of $3.50 for the
moral prejudice. The French judge did not
understand this, and he dismissed the case

From the Chicago Tribune.
Whenever man is shot by an officer of
the law in our country he Is Immediately

are apprehended, convicted and punished
In Oklahoma much quicker in proper
older communities. Owing to the scat
tered and light settlement of the coun-
try it is easy to apprehend a criminal.
and the border lawlessness that marks the
opening of a new country is followed by a
strong determination to suppress and Grad
icate such a condition. There is no senti-
ment among those drawn together to try a
criminal, and frequently a verdict is set
aside, owing to its severity

sMELLED THE GAS BY TELEPHONE.
A Pestiverous Crank Was Switched
on by a Weary Clerk.

on by a Weary Clerk.
A majority Of the cranky people who visit
Washington make the White House their
objective point, but occasionally some will
wander irto the departments to unfold
their grievances. Not long ago good spec
linen of the genus made his appearance at
the Post Office Department, and as he
wanted to see "Lne of the judges" bright
messenger steered him into the room and
up to the desk Of one of the old clerks in
the fourth assistants office, whose gray
hairs and dignified appearance helped to
carry out the cepticn. The visitor, SO a
Star reporter is informed, was evidently an
old soldier, as his complaint was in refer
ence to the management of one of the SOL
diers' homes. After listening to his dis
jofnted utterances for a moment, the clerk
wheeled around in his chair and said:
my friend. I am Lot the proper person
to come to with such a complaint. am"
Eyes, you are" interrupted the crank.
THE man out in the hall told me you were
continued with long string of grievances,
until the clerk, who was quite busy, stop
ped him with the remark:
Il can give you no relief for your trou-
bles, you should go to the War Depart
ment," and cor Guiding hat his trouble
some visitor was a crs nix of the first wa
ter, he continued: Come around here and
sit down. and I'll connect you by telephone
with the Sc cretary of War. That will gave
YOU the trouble of going up to his office
through the hot sun and waiting a long
time for an audit nee"
The clerk seated the crank at a little Ia
BILE behind the high-baclSed desk, then 60
ing around beside his own chair he uncou-
pied from the gas jet the long tube which
led to the drop light on his desk Putting
the tubing over the high back he placed the
end in the hands of the complainant and
remarked:
There you are. That puts you in direct
connection with the Secretary himself. Talk
to him all you want to-"
And he did talk to the Secretary for full
hour, to the great amusement of the clerks
in the room. Finally, after he had relieved
himself of big batch of complaints. he
laid down the Telephone with a sigh of
satisfaction. and, as he took his hat to go,
said to the clerk:
Some one ought to notify the War De-
partment that there is big leakage of gas
somewhere up there"

through a second "duster," which sets the
dust flying again. Next comes the prepa-
ration for cleansing with lime water. Tho
rags are pitched and crammed down a
tunnel in the floor. which proved, on ex-
animation, to be an immense iron cylinder
like gigantic barrel-more than the height
of a man in diameter-and three times that
length: There were two of them sus-
pended near the ceiling, called rotary
bleachers." which hold a ton each. and
every night at o'clock are filled with
rags, the lime water put In, and the whole
left to boil all night. When. the rags are
done, workmen come with long-handled I'M
PIGMENTS and hook them out, and noun
tains of sopping, cooked rags loom up in
the cave-like place.
The bleaching room came next in order,
and up to it the lime-cleaned rags are COLI
veyed in little cars. the full ones going up
the empty ones coming down by narrow
one. Several tanks-huge enough to be bath
tubs for the Titans-were ready to receive
them, and men stood waiting with horrible
looking torgS to clutch and toss them in.
In each vat Is a washing engine, which
keeps a stream of clean water running
continuously through, while the foul water
goes pouring out through great pipe. A
screen Of fine wire keeps the stock from
washing away, and far in is machinery
that grirds the rags, and sets of zigzag
the fiber, and there they are ground, dis
membered and tormcnted for five or more
hours, according to the degree of dirt and

water Is let off, a curious little trap which
catches the buttons that have managed to
accompany the rags so far on their way to
being paper. is opened, the buttons scraped

The End of Summer Romance
Which Was to Blame:
| From the Boston Home Journal
They met ct tie seashore. he and sheS-
| Miss Bailey and Mr.. Blank.
He, one OF those desirable, fascinating
fellows Of summer, and she a real sum-
mer girl.
His entire time and attention was given
to her and to re one else. 1t is not strange
that when his short vacation was ended
he had won her heart. Girls hearts are
| easily won where men are few.
Did he promise to write her upon his
| immediate return to the city ard see her
when she also returned?
| Aye. faithfully, and so they parted, he
reluctantly 60 returning to the city and
she remaining desolate and unhappy at
the shore. Every few days he wrote her
tender, sympathetic epistles. each telling
| of his loneliness, his 1--we, etc.
The time was now at hand. She would
| test his devotion and weigh its worth.
She would write him a letter and pretend
she had met his wife. What n good
joke 1t would be, and how he would feel!
What IN apologizing letter he would write!
What fun! &c. in a cool, diGnifed manner
she penned the following:
Dear Mr.. Blank: 1 received your last
yesterday and am shocked at your con-
| duct.
There was a large hop given here last
| night. the largest one of the season. A
great many strangers came down, and
among them, your wife!
1 was introduced to her by Mrs Some
body, and when heard her name 1 was
| panied, indeed.
I cannot comprehend how you could
| ever treat such a dear, sweet, lovable little
woman In the way you have. Men should
| treat their wives honorably and justly,
and forsaking all others, keep her unto
him." If l have been rash, pardon me,
| but my moral views are high, assure you,
and could not let such conduct pass un-
noticed. If there has been any mistake
forget 1T. Let me know what the real
truth is. for am deeply shocked and
grieved. Allow me to remain,

Mr.. John Y. Blank.
The reply came:
Dear Miss Bailey: am grieved that you
should have been SO panied. Your discover
les are, indeed, very startling as much
SO to me as yourself l appreciate your
high moral views and agree with YOU
tina, mar should treat his wife honor
ably and justly, and, forsalking all Others
keep her unto him." thank you for your
many kind suggestions. With such dscov-
cries as you have made the law in such
case would prevent my doing otherwise
than allowing you to remain Elizabeth

servant,

The note fell from her hands She was
bewfldered and surprised, shocked at the
consequences. Was it true that he was
