James Granville Tries
to Kill His Wife
With One.
He Strikes Her ON the Head
While she IN sleeping with Her
Daughter - Granville Says He
Was I'm the Devils Power.

James Glanville was arrested early
yesterday morning by Officer Stukel and
now languishes in the village lookup
pending an investigation OF affairs. The
officer was called by neighbor OF Clan
ville's, who stated that there was row
in Blue Jacket and that Glanville had
probably murdered his wife.
When the officer arrived he found Mrs.
Granville lying in the house with an ugly
cash in her head and Glanville outside
with an axe and revolver near by. lie
took Granville to the jail
A News reporter called Mt the residence
of Mrs. Gribble, in Blue Jacket, yesterday.
Mrs. Gribble is daughter OF Mrs. Clan
vile and Mr. and Mrs. Glanville have re-
sided for the past two weeks with her
and the row occurred in her house.
Mrs. Glanville was then in bed and I'M
conscious as she had been the greater
part OF the day. Mrs. Gribbe gave the
reporter the following account OF the
trouble:
81 was sleeping in the same bed az my
mother on the lower floor of the house
and awakened with start about 400
this morning. heard my mother groan
and looked up just in time to see Clan
vile strike her over the head with the
side OF double bladed axe He raised
the axe again and struck me on the head
just as turned. jumped out of the
bed and attempted to get the axe. Clan
vile muttered, Il guess | killed her this
time and grabbed me by the neck at
the same time saying, Stand away
from me, l have shooter and then he
reached back for his revolver Then |
got the axe away and threw him down,
all the time had been screaming at the
top OF my voice and my children came
down from upstairs and my boy took
the revolver away from him.
pulled Glanyille out 'on the front
stoop and hit him several blows with
the axe, but this was because was
afraid he had killed my mother and
might do the same to me-
BY this time the neghbors had been
attracted by my screams and one of them
went for nightwatchman and doe
tor
DR.. Mcleod was called and examined
Mrs. Granville and dressed her head. He
stated yesterday that it was bad
wound, but in all probability the woman
would live.
Glanville was seen ut the village Jail
yesterday and appeared to be very sorry
for his actions. He said his vile had
abused him for some time past, in fact
ever since they had some trouble about
some Tamarack mining stock and that
she was constantly upbraidiDg him for
drinking, although he had not touched
drop for many months past. He said
he was perfectly sober at the time.
When questioned as to what reasons
he had for his actions he said that he was
Gin the power OF the devil" and that the
devil had control OF him.
Ii appears that the two had quarreled
frequently for some time past, but that
he had not lived with his wife of late, up
TO within the past two weeks. Granville
is a cripple and well known character
hereabouts.

An Effective Reproof.

Allison is one of the kindliest and gen
tlest of men. L remember "a story of him
which illustrates his temperament When
/ first came TO Washington as newspaper
correspondent, l heard a bit of rather in
toresting gossip about the senator. 1t was
not anything TO his discredit, and yet was
of such nature that the senator would nat
urally prefer nothing be said about IL. In
fact, IL was scarcely legitimate topic for
a newspaper article, but ] was unable to
resist the temptation to publish it, A few
days afterward met Allison. l expected
he would give me good lecturng, and
knew that deserved it. But he came up,
shook my hand warmly and said: Il no.
ticed that little story you printed about
me. Now, my boy, let me give you a lit.
tie advice. That sort of thing won't hurt
me. can stand any amount of it. But
it will hurt you. You can't afford to
print such things. Ny advice to you is
not to do 1t, and whenever / can be of
service TO you come and see me-" Could
there have been more effective reproofY
And the result of 1t was that Mr.. Allison
taught me very good lesson, and we have
been fast friends ever since. He could not
have done me greater kindness.

LEARNING SADLY WASTED.

Experience Of . Lingulst with a Man who
Uttered Strange Cultural Sounds.
There 10 = genial linguist in an office
near the city hall.says the New YorkSu
who is frequently called upon to act
as an interpreter. The other day a
friendly policeman enlisted his services
in behalf Of a man he had found gestic-
nlating and uttering strange cultural
sounds in tho park. The man was an
understood. tawny-skinned foreigner,
and appeared to be in trouble.
The linguist beamed kindly upon the
poor man, while the policeman and the
other men in the Office looked at the
linguist with q due amount of respect
full appreciation of his learning. He
opened his batteries in French, but
there was no responding sign of intelli-
gence. Then German, italian and
Spanish were tried. These also failing,
the ]inguist was about to utilize some
rccollections of Turkish and volapuk,
when the unfortunate reached over,
drew a pencil, snatched a piece of paper
from a nearby desk and wrote as fol-
lows:
II am deaf and dumb. 1 want to
know how to reach the Japanese
CONSUL"
After the linguist had been revived
he announced that he had gone out Of

FUTURE COAL MINE.

Discovery of . Buried Forest off France
That Is Fast Becoming Changed to Coal.
A singular fact is overwhelmingly
that on the shores of Brittany, between
st. Malo and St. Lunaire, in the vicini-
ty Of St. Enogat station, at a place called
Port Blanc, the tides have lately dis
placed a considerable amount Of sand,
say to the depth Of some 8 to 13 feet.
Accompanying this remarkable phe-
nomenon is the fact that forests known
to have been buried for periods covering
some Is or 20 centuries have now been
brought to light and a vast forest has,
it appears, been discovered in process
Of transformation into coal. Ferns
and the trunks and barks of trees are
to be seen in an advanced state Of de-
composition, showing, in fact, the films
and flakes which are found in coal,
and, while some Of the trunks are Is
feet in length and still very distinct,
they are becoming rapidly transformed.

Fondness OF Mice FOR Music.

A nice little animal story is given in
this months Nature Notes, which raises
the interesting question whether mice
have a fondness for music. It is con
tributed by a musician, who says: "One
evening l was somewhat startled at
hearing my piano suddenly giving forth
sweet sounds, apparently of it's owl &C
cord. A mouse, SO it proved, had got
Inside the instrument, and was making
music on the wires. Whether this vas
intentional on mousie's part or not [
cannot say; perhaps he was trying to
make a nest for himself there. Some
years ago, however, while a piano was
being played in the dining-room of my
old home, several mice came out upon
the hearthrug and began to jump about,
