Mrs Champeau dashed out and doused
the intruders with the contents OF a bot
tie. She said that IL was holy water.
The family had seen the squad approach,
and the women declared that IL was flock
of devils.
The mother addressed the police as dia-
boical spirits, and attempted TO put them
out. She used physical force, while the
others OF the family tried prayer Mrs.
Champeau battled until she fell from ex-
rHUstion One daughter fed and is still at
large.
Several weeks ago one of the daughters,
who was very deycut, arose one morning
and announced that she had welded ~ the

known as Chahot. He operated with caba-
listic word and sign until the rest OF the
family were driven crazy. Then lie retired
with a hard-earned Sc. He had been forced
to leave the cure to fate.

GREAT STEP FORWARD.
Frederic COudertRegardsVen
Agreement as Highly Important.

Frederic r. Coudert, member OF the
Venezuelann Boundary Commission n -makes
the following statement in a New York
paper today.
Il have very little 10 say upon the sub
ject OF the proposed and expected treaty
of arbitration. 1 know nothing of the de
tails except what have read in the press.
Bat is must be a great satisfaction to the
people OF both nations to see that those
who are at the head OF their public ar
fairs have been able to meet on common
grounds OF good sense and justice to set
tie an irritating quarrel OF such long stand
ing between one Of the nations and "A third &.
While, of course. the Commission ap-
pointed by President Cleveland has be-
slowed great deal OF labor upon the
asceTtainment OF the truth, ana would have
done its best to satisfy the public opinion
OF the world, nevertheless, it was after
all an eX-parte commission, appointed to
eniighten the conscience OF the President
of the United States.
IL could not, therefore, command the as
sent OF the parties really Interested as
thoroughly as would a DECISION of a court
to the organization and creation OF which
both the cOntesting parties had assented.
While, therefore, the labUrs OF the COM
mission Will be continued for the orderly
able proof, IL is to be hoped that it will
never be necessary TO use 1t for the purpose OF
formulating a decision.
The agreement, If effected will be a
direct and splendid step in advance, and
one OF the many things that our century Will
have to boast OF illustrating the posi-
bilities OF enlightened good sense, good
feeling and The proper understanding OT the
mercantile interests Of the world

TREES TELL TIL EIR AGE.
Cross Sections Inspected to Dis
cover the Secret.


1t is a comm on notion that the section of
a tree -trunk can furnish data regarding its
age, the conc entric rings being theoreti-
cally as numerous as its years of life. 1t
is known, however, that the information
thus furnished is only approximately exact.
Can We find out anything else? An English
botanist has recently caused some surprise
by calling attention to popularity in a
tree preserved in the British Museum. 1t
is found in section OF a Douglas fir Of
British Colu mbia, which was cut down in
1885, at the age Of more than five hundred
years. If we examine the fragment of
trunk preserved In the museum, We see that
part of the annual rings corresponding to
the end Of the first century of the trees
existence presents an abnormal appear
ance. Twenty Of the rings are very much
pressed against one another, forming q
zone of peculiar aspect, well separated from
the Zones without and within. Evidently
these layers, during twenty years, were
formed under unfavorable or ut least alb.
normal conditions. What were these con-
ditions?
: The author of whom we are speaking is
inclined to look for tn em in the numerous
catacl ysms-e artA quakes, inund ations,
droughts. etc, with hoxious vapors rising
that preceded the great epidemic known
by the name of 1.-The black DEATH, In the
fourteenth century. which epidemic has
been attributed to these cataclysms. That
is all very well, but is it proven that these
cataclysms took place also in British Co
lumbia? That is a question with which
our botanist scarcely troubles himself.
but which has, nevertheless considerable
bearing on the case.

in the Peninsula region OF Virginia and came
here in 1865.
They were married in 1878, and six
years later Mrs. Newport presented her
husband with twins, which We're named
Robert E. Lee and George Washington
In 1880 triplets we're born. They We're
Christened James A. Garfield, Chester A
4 rthur and Ulysses s. Grant
Two weeks ago there was another birth,
this time OF four little Newports. In 1892
the father became a Democrat, but Mrs
Newport remains Republican. So when
it came to naming the new arrivals Bryan's
three names were utilized, coupled with
his opponents surname as a sop to the wife
and mother. Mother and children are pro-
crossing finely.
Newport is boatman, and is well known

NOTHING BUT GUESSWORK
Idle Speculation as to McKinley's
Private Secretary.
Gen. Osborne. May Get It-Perry
Heath Wants 1t and James Boyle
Probably Sure of 1t.

| Canton, Ohio, Nov. 12.-Gcn William N.
| Osborne, of Boston, secretary Of the Re
| publican national committee, arrived from
New York this morning. He came West
with Chairman Hanna. The latter, how
ever, went directly TO Cleveland. Mr..
Osborne said that there was a great deal
OF Cabinet talk and conjecture about the
policy OF the new administration afloat,
but that it was all guesswork.
IL Is The brllel OF the pCltiCal prophets
here that Gen. Osborne will be offered
either the appointment OF private secretary
or that OF consul general to London. He is
very close 10 Mayor Mckinley and would
no doubt'be "a very ACCEPTABLE private sec
retary, but his own inclinations may lead
him into the foreign service.
There is "A good deal OF gossip about
the position OF private secretary today.
Joseph p. Smith, who has been mentioned
frequently in connection with the oIlice,
said this morning that he had not been Of
fered the appointment by Ma jor Mckinley,
and that he could not saccept it ir 1t
Were offered him, for the reason that he
did feel himself adapted To the peculiar
kind OF work expected from private
secretary.
Perry Heath is understood to be an active
applicant for the post, and the name OF
Charles r. Dawes of Chicago, is mentioned
in connection with it, No one has any rea-
son, however, for supposing that james
Boyle, who is now Major McKinley's private
secretary, and who occupied that position
all the time Major Mckinley y was governor
or Ohio. ma not he taken To Washington In
similar capacity.
Ma 4or Mn Inirs said this noon that all or
the speculation about this appointment
was purely coniectural. There is abundant
reason for stating tnat no choice has been
made OF private secretary by Major Nc
Kinley.
Major Mckinley has again postponed his
trip to Cleveland. The day of departure
now fixed upon is Tuesday.

HARRISON TALKED TO THEM
EX-PreSident'S Address to Farmers
National Congress.
Right for Men Of Particular Occu-
patton to Band Together, But
Must Not Raise Glass Issues.

indianapolis, Nov. 12.-The third days
session OF the Farmers National Congress
had two important features. One was an
address by Gen. Harrison, and the other
was the adoption of a mem orial to Congress.
General Harrison W as in a happy mood,
and when he arose to speak he was greeted
enthusiastically. In part, he said:
Il came ere to make an Acknowledgement
of the compliment you have shown me by
inviting me to appear before this congress
l supposed that politics is barred, sa this is
an agricultural meeting. RI m not an agri-
culturalist, though born and reared ON a
farm.
MY education was paid for by the pro-
ceeds Of corn and hogs. 1t is custom
OF the time for men OF a particular occu-
patton to associate themselves together to
develop and cultivate mutual interests.
Such organizations are to be encouraged,
but we must not forget that law yers, farm
ers and laborers all have interests, and
that 10 one class should try to get the bet
ter of the other classes.
I'VE are all rejoicing that you are getting
little more for your wheat and corn
though 1t is at the expense of US who have
TO pay little more for the thing we con-
sume.'
Then the general ventured a little piece
out into political waters
Il have no patience with those people
who are always fighting the air." he said.
He advised men who believe that lcgis-
lation Is pre- judicial to them to 90 about
a fight IN a systematic way, mot fighting
the air." 1t was plain that the general was
referring to a situation in the recent cam
paign. He advised that public sentiment be
focused on whatever question OF unusual
import was brought before the people and
that men go straight after what the ! want.
Thenhe told of how brakeman came and
sat down beside him in the train one day
recently, and told him that he did not like
the idea Of this thing of trying to array
class against class. This remark of the
brakeman, Of course, pleased Gen. Har-
riSon.
Whatever they say about class interests.
the great body of the American people will
work for truth and right"
