LONDON, June 1O.-Mrs. Annie Dyer,
the Reading baby farmer, who pre-
sumably had murdered scores of in
fants entrusted to her care, was hanged
in Newgate prison at nine o'clock this
morning Since she was sentenced to
death Mrs. Dyer twice attempted to
commit suicide in Newgate prison.
Latterly she was watched day and
night and was deprived of everything
except her most necessary clothing,
even her hairpins being taken from
her. The woman was completely
dazed when she was led to the scat
fold this morning and had to be sup
ported by the wardresses who had her
in charge since she was sentenced
to die. Although Mrs. Dyer was
clearly proven to have committed nu-
merous murders of infants, she was
tried on a selected charge of killing a
little girl, the child of barmaid,
whom she had adopted for the sum OF
e1O The child was strangled with a
piece of tape and its body sunk in the
Thames at Reading. The bodies of
seven other children who had been
strangled were found in the river at
the time the barmaid's infant was re-
covered 1t has only been a month
since Mrs. Dyer was convicted.

night in the Woods printing Office,
where 40 persons were employed.
Nearly score of women were on the

in flames their only chance of escape
appeared to be to throw themselves
out of the windows Policeman Will
liam Graham rushed into an adjoining
building and up to the third floor and
climbed out upon the broad sill OF the
window nearest to the burning build
ing. He told the women to hang out
by their hands and he would lift them
into safety. He rescued them all be-
fore the arrival of the firemen, and
the crowd which had gathered cheered
him and made q hero OF him.

rife gales that swept the ocean a few

KANSAS CRY, Mo-, June 10.-Another
strike Of the union fremen employed
in the boiler rooms at the Armour
packing house in this city was ordered
last night at the regular meeting OF
the stationary fremen's union. This
decision was reached aftera discussion
of the grievance of the flremen, which
grew out of the company's refusal to
reinstate Mike Burnes, the union ash
wheeler, and the seven ffremen who
laid down their shovels and walked
out Saturday afternoon on account OF
Burnes' discharge. This morning all
the union firemen, save four or five, re-
fused to go to work. The union men
on the shift this afternoon followed
the example OF the morning men. The
company found men about the house
to keep up the fires under the boilers,
and from outward appearances the
packing house was in operation as
usual, with something like 5000 people
at work A great crowd Of men was

Whenever Mr.. b came into the shop

discharge him. Fact! Here's another

the average barber hates nothing so
much as to have to shave mans up
per lip? l don't know why it is, but l
feel that way myself I'd rather lose

Paul Kruger. the President OF the
South African Republic, has been cali

II his pictures do not libel him, we are

people at best, but are stalwart and
strong and make up in the sturdy vir-
tues for lack Of superficial refinemcnts.
In this respect the President is fairly
representative Of his race. In his youth
he was accounted the strongest man IN
the republic, and now, at the age OF 20,
he Is very robust and vigorous. He
bears on his body many marks OF his
physical prowess, gained In those con-
tests with the natives which have been
so numerous In the history Of tie

tated after 1t had been mangled by a
