PUSS AND HER WHEEL.


How an Admirer Tired ont "a Horde OF
Blooming bachelors.
When pretty prss came to visit us
couple of weeks ago, she was just be-
ginning to learn to ride wheel. She
looked stunning in her dark green rid

her to hang on. The slender waist was

that invitation was a signal 10 every
blooming bachelor that rode wheel
within ten miles OF our house to come
around and help. l have since learned
that the young scamps of today keep
tab on every girl who learns to ride and
swarm around her. 1t seems that there
is no fun riding with girl after she

words Of burning encouragement and
direction into her pink little shell-li
ear.
1t made me very tired when l disoov-

men were working. Ispoke to the little
lady about the matter and offered to

but she told me that Puss preferred the
young unmarried men and plenty Of

IN MEMORY OF HENRY GEORGE.
Public Asked to Subscribe TO n Fund for
Benefit of His Widow.

New York, Nov. 22.-The Henry
George memorial committee, Of which
Mayor Strong and Seth Low are MEM
bers, met in the city hall and drew up
an appeal which will be made to the
public in a few days. The appeal is, In
part as follows:
1T was universally recognized that.
in standing as a candidate for an i'm
portant office, his motives were entirely
disinterested without a thought to his
own profit or fame Such lives are so
rare as to deserve the fullest recogni-
tion and the highest honor. No me-
mortal 10 Henry George could be at
once more grateful to him and more
satisfactory to all who recognize his
worth than a provision made by public
subscription to put his widow in such a
position of comfort as she would un-
doubtedly have enjoyed had her hus-
band devoted his genius and his Won
derful power as writer to the benefit
of his family instead of the benefit OF
humanity"

DE SILVA MAY BE LYNCHED.
Attempts to Rape His Employers Daugh-
ter and Fires His Barn.

Pana, Ills, Nov. 22-The most disas-
trous and horrible conhagration ever
occurring in central Illinois, causing
heavy loss to property and sufferings
indescribable to animals, was the burn
ing of Fritz Dahlers dairy and stock
barn in the corporation limits. The
large barn was fired in fully twenty
places by an incendiary in the person of
John De Silva, and was totally de-
stroyed. Thirty head of fine registered
milk cows, five calves and five horses
found a horrible death in the flames.
All the contents of the barn, including
feed, carriages. farming implements,
ETC., were burned De Silva was the first
man on the scene. and when it was sus-
pected that he fired the barn the in
furiated. but high standing German
citizens and neighborhood began talk
ing of seizing the wretch and casting
him into the flames to die as did his
innocent suffering victims.
The arrival of Chief of Police Kiely
and officers prevented this however, and
before they could single De Silva out
he had disappeared in the crowd. Fifty
minutes later he was arrested while in
hiding in the business portion of the
city ana Jalleu' "A confession was Sc
cured from De Silva by Chief Kiely
De Silva had been employed with Dahl
er for two years, assisting him with his
dairy. Last Sunday morning he at
tempted to rape the 10-year-old daugh-
ter Of Dahler and Dahler discharged
him Immediately. DE Silva left the
city. but returned and committed the
horrible arson. The Dahler family herd
was one of the largest and finest in the
state and the loss is inestimable. Lynch
ing has been freely talked and there is
no knowing the result when the German
residents of this section come to the
city and learn of De SilVaS deed.

louder and without moments warning
Mr.. Beard and DR.. Gagnon rose from
their seats and stood facing each other.
Mr.. Beard made some remark which
seemed to enrage Dr. Gagnon beyond

Debt from the Sultan.

Debt from the Sultan.
Constantinople, Nov. 22.-The officials
Of the Russian embassy have sent
second note TO the Turkish minister
pointing out that in times OF difficulty
Russia abstained from urging the pay
ment OF the war debt due her by Tur-
key, but now that the government of
Turkey has decided upon fresh arma-
ments which are not warranted by the
present situation Russia demands por-
ton Of the arrears, on the same grounds
that Austria urged the payment of the
claims due to the Oriental railroad, an
Austrian corporation, for transporting
Turkish troops during the recent war
with Greece.
In consequence of this communication
the porte has informed the Russian
charge d'affaires that nothing has been
decided upon concerning ornaments, at
the same time bestowing upon that off,

BERGMAN CLEW FOLLOWED.
ThcE Missing Bridegroom said to Have
Been Seen In Milwaukee.


Chicago. Nov. 22.-The police of Hyde
Park and f. T. Mason & Co., where
George Bergman was employed, do not
put much faith in the report that the
missing man has been seen in Milwau-
kee. The police, however. will thorough
ly investigate and try to substantiate
the story. thorough search of the
hotels of Milwaukee is being made in
hopes of finding the man who so mys-
teriously disappeared on the eve of his
wedding day.
Robert Stevens, an employe of the
Goodrich Steamboat line, is positive that
the man who boarded the steamer In
diana Thursday night, as 1t was about
to leave its dock at the foot of Michigan
avenue for Manitowoc, Wis, was Berg
man. - esSA-
II know MIR Bergman. said Stevens,
having become acquainted with him
through our mutual love for the game OF
pool and billiards. did not question
him regarding his trip, as l had not
heard Of the wedding which was to take
place"
If Stevens story can be verified the
conduct of Bergman Wednesday and up
to the time of the departure is hard to
explain. Another clew to the probable
fate Of the missing man was furnished
by s. f. Lee, waiter living at 2s4 Mich
igan avenue. At o'clock Thursday
morning while on his way to drug
store at Wabash avenue and Harrison
street, Lee saw a man sitting on the
curb in a dazed condition When aroused
the man said he had been robbed, and
mumbled about a mysterious woman
| The next day Lee saw pictures of Berg
man in the newspapers. and says they
bear a striking resemblance to the man
| he saw on the curb. He believes the man
| he talked to was Bergman.
