lie Pleaded Guilty.

About two weeks ago a bicycle be-
longing to Miss Ida Waugh disappeared
in a manner which indicated that it had
been stolen. A few days later a lady's
bicycle was found abandoned in neigh
boring village and it proved to be the
missing wheel. Indications pointed to
one Antoine Brassau as the party guilty
of the theft and on Friday he was ar
rested in Williston. He was brought to
Middlebury and left to sit in solemn
silence in the dull, dark dock of the
county bastile until Monday, when his
case was heard before Justice Moore
lie pleaded guilty as charged and was
put under $500 bonds to await the action
of the December term of court. Being
unable to procure bonds, he will board

VERDICT OF CORONERS JURY.


killing of Haselton Miners Found to Have
Been "Wanton and Uniustifiable."
A Haselton, Pa, despatch of Sept. %
says: The coroner's Jury which inves-
tigated the death of the striking miners
at Lattimer met in Deputy Coroner Cow
mans office this evening and after an
hours deiberation, rendered the follow
ing verdict.
"That from the circumstances of the
case and the evidence offered the said
Clement Platock and others came to their
deaths by gun shot wounds on Septem
ber 10, 1897, at the hands of Sheriff
James Martin and his deputies and in
this we the jury do all agree and we,
Philip j. Boyle. Thomas L. Thomas,
Barton Freas and Peter Mckernan OF
this Jury do further say that the said
Clement Platock, with others, was
marching peaceablv and unarmed on the
public highway, that they were inter-
cepted by the said Sheriff Martin and
his deputies and mercilessly shot to
death and we do further find that the
killing was unnecessary and could have
been avoided without serious injury to
either person or property and we fnd
finally that the killing was wanton and
unustifiable, but i'm this we, George
Maue and f. j. McNeal of this jury dc
not corcur and we, the jury. do further
say that there was such strong suspicion
of unlawful violence at the hands OF
persons unknown by this Jury as to make
this inquest necessary.

For some time past the emperor Of China
has been taking lessons in English and
likes to air his knowledge whenever he
gets a chance. The other day the Viceroy
Liu Of Nanking recommended to the throne
Taotai named Ii, who boasts "knowl-
edge Of foreign affairs" and his majesty
at the audience asked the Taotai whether
he knew any English. Having been rec
commended for his knowledge" Ii Taotai
had TO sustain his reputation and so re-
piled Yes" forgetting apparently that
his imperial master had studied English
and was still studying the language.
Then came the attack. The unlucky
Taotai was bombarded with "How do you
dog'' "Are you wellg' "Thank you, F" "Sit
down, ""Have you been to England?" and
the like, spoken with a rich Mantchoo
brogue in rapid succession. Tho poor Tao
tai was completely bewildered, of course,
and instead of seeking for an escape by de-
claring in tones of respectful admiration
his extreme wonder at the imperial elo-
quence he began kowtowing ON the pol
ished marble floor His majesty was SO
disgusted at this display of ignorance on
the part of the audience seeker that he
roundly abused in Mantchoo the now trem-
bling Taotai for daring to come before
him ION a borrowed reputation. The
unlucky Taotai was then almost driven
from the audience chamber with the in
junction "to keep an English book con-
stantly under his nose for three years at
least if he wished To succeed at all in that
line. NORTH China Daily News.

cry of peculiar kind of fire, inextinguish

Us substance having the consistency OF

The friction caused by rubbing it against

and nothing will overcome the flame, th'
latter burning with blue light and an in
tense heat until the compound is complete

no effect upon it.
Dynamite and gunpowder require I

duces an explosion, but not q regular fire
But to ignite this compound there is jus
the slightest friction of rubbing it agains
some ordinary substance-there is then NJ
