A FLOATING FEAST.

In sailing along the coast north of
Cape Hatteras, the crew of the steamer
Earndale say the vessel passed the
carcass of a dead whale about so feet
long. Captain Lougharne, who was on
watch at the time, noticed black OBJ
ject several miles ahead, directly in line
with his course. When he looked
through the glass a second time he
saw it was a moving object, and as he
closed upon it he was surprised to see
thousands of birds, including turkey
buzzards, hen hawks, vultures, sea
snipes, water eagles and crows, feast
ing upon the purifying carcass.
The birds the crew say, were so nu-
meTous that they resembled a moving
cloud close to the seas surface. Hun
dreds were feeding at time, and oc-
casiOnaliy they would leave the carcass
and fly away a distance, only to return
again and gorge themselves. The sail
ors were Of the opinion that it was
sperm whale, killed in northern waters
by whalers.-Philadelph Press.

For COmtry's Sake.
AN INDIAN FIGHTER SUFFERS AGONlES
FROM DISEASE.
He Was in the Battle with the Apaches
When Geronimo Was Captured.

From the Press. New York City.
Worn with the exposure of army life
on the frontier, and poisoned by the
continual drinking of allSali water
Joseph F'legauf returned to Phlladel-
phia eight years ago broken down in
health and unable to do any work.
He had served five years with the
Ninth United States Infantry in many
desperate fight with the Indians in
Arizona and other frontier states and
had won an enviable record. In the
fierce conflict when Geronimo, the
famous chief of the Apaches, was cap
tured, Mr.. Fleugauf was among the
brave soldiers who, forgetful of every
thing but duty, charged upon the hos
tile Indians.
Life on the plains sent to an untirnciy
death many soldiers who were never
touched by a redskins bullet or arrow,
and Mr.. Flegauf came near such. fate
as that. A long time before his time
was out he was taken seriously i'll, but
he stuck to his post until an honorable
discharge was finally given to him.
When he reached Philadelphia, the
Indian fighte" was scarcely more than
skin and bones. and for three weeks he
lay desperately Ill in a hospital. He felt
dizzy, and his stomach felt as il it had
dried up. These symptoms were accom-
panied by bloody dysentery, which ne
medicine seemed to relieve.
After two years of suffering, Mr.
Flegauf came to New York and was
treated by several physicians. These
did not agree, some calling his disease
catarrh of the stomach, and others
chronic diarrhoea.
In speaking to a reporter about his
illness Mr.. Flegauf said the doctors
helped him, but, with all the money he
spent for advice and medicine he was
able to work only a small part of the
time. Since moving to his present
home, No. 517 West FOrty-second street,
in New York, about year ago, Mr..
Flegauf has been so i'll that his voice
and hearing almost left him.
Then all medicines failed, and the
sick man had little hope OF recovery.
At this critical time DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People We're recommended
to Mr.. F'legauf, and, almost as a last
hope, he began taking them.
1.-THE beneficial effect of the medicine
was felt at once" Mr.. Flegauf told the
reporter, land before had taken box
began to eat with relish. Three boxes
made me so much better that l began
work and have been able to keep at It
since, for five months"
DR.. williams Pink Pills contain all
the elements necessary to give new life
and richness "a the blood and restore
shattered nerves. They are for sale by
by all druggists, or may ybe h Z by mail
from DIR. Williams Medicine Company,
Schenectady, N. Y, for soc per box, or
six boxes for $3.50.

Murder Noar Alta Vista, Kan.

ALTA VISTA, Kan, March lO.-Frank
Mitchell, a prominent farmer near
this place, was murdered last Thurs
day. James Clare, q brother-in-law
of the deceased. on going to Mltchell's
farm, yesterday morning, found
Mitchell missing. A search discov-
cred the body on the farm of John
Hepner, neighbor. On being con-
fronted with the fact and taken into
custody, Hepner confessed to killing
Mitchell and hiding the body in the
grass. Excitement runs high and
threats of lynching are common.
Mitchell was known as quiet and
sober man, while Hepner has very
unsavory reputation. Hcpner's wife
denies all knowledge of the deed.
She was also placed under arrest.

CHICAGO, March 0.-Carefully con-
cealed in a barrel and covered with a
mass of old rags and cotton, the dead
bodies of grey-haired man and a
newborn babe were found in an ally
in Hyde park yesterday. In conse-
quence the people are working on
what they consider double murder.
Only one clue is in their possession,
and on the discovery of the identity of
a woman, as yet unknown to tho
police, depends the possible solution
of the mystery. The police laugh Mt
the theory that it was the work OF
medical students, and are positive in
their statements that the man and
child were murdered.

HER HUSBAND WAS DEAD.

Mrs. Patrick Cronin Dldn't Recognize ths
Work of the Destroying Angel
MEXICO, Mo-, March 10. The decom-
posed body of an aged farmer named
Patrick Cronin, who lived in little
shanty near Martinsburg, this county,
was discovered yesterday and viewed
by the coroner, who thinks Cronin had
been dead about ten days. Mrs Cronin,
who was also very old, and subject to
insanity, went to the Catholic services
at Martinsburg, Saturday, and told the
priest that her husband was very
iii, and asked that aid be given him.
On investigation it was discovered
that the old lady had been cooking
and eating in the room where her hus-
band lay dead, and was not cogniznnt
of the fact. Mrs. Cronin had thought
her husband very Ill, and sat up with
him each night until his face began to
turn black, and she became frightened
and told the priest. When the odor
became unbearable she got brick
bat and knocked out every pane of
glass in the house, thus admitting the
fresh air.
