SHE WHISTLED 4 DAYS
Tie Same Old Tune Until Her Hus-
band Struck Her.

New York, Nov. 11-Charged with the
use of too much force in inducing his
wife to cease Whistling Liberty Bells, -
Frank Damstadt, a New York lawyer,
living in Richmond Hill, was hauled be-
fore Justice Ash at the Hill this morn
ing.
Mr.. Damstadt stated that his wife
whistled continuously for four days and
nights, when she was not sleeping,
simply to annoy him, and that his nerv-
Gus system was completely shattered
as a result.
From early morning until late at
night, even when she was eating, she
kept it up, he said.
The first thing that saluted his ears,
even before the alarm clock could per-
form its duty, and the last thing he
heard when he retired, was the same
old Liberty Bells.'
Mrs. Martin Damstadt, who is young
and pretty, appeared before Justice Ash
last week and entered a complaint of
assault against her husband. Her hair
is brown and her eyes are ordinarily
dark. One of them, however, is black
now, and bruised, too. Mrs. Damstadt
asserted that her husband was reSpOn-
sible for the changed appearance of
the optic, and also complained that her
husband had struck her violently in the
left side.
The defendant protested that he had
simply grasped her by the wrist and
led her from the room after she had
tortured him all through breakfast with
those eVer-ringing Liberty Bells
Judge Ash reserved his decision. He
wishes to hear Liberty Bells whistled
before he renders judgment He wants,
in fact. to find out if there was Sufff-
cient prOvOcatiOn.

DUEL WITH
SWORDS
Between Sir Robert Peel and a
French Duke
Is Narrowly AVerted by an
Apology.
ABOUT CAPT. DREYFUS
The Trouble Grew Out of a
Discussion
Regarding the Justice of the
ABOUT CAPT. DREYFUS
Regarding the Justice of the
Captains Imprisonment.

Paris, Nov. 11.-Sir Robert Peel near
1y engaged in duel today with Due
Clement Decirella- Swords had been
decided upon as the weapons. Both
men were in Paris in conference with
their seconds.
Sir Robert Peel is a grandson of the
famous prime minister of England, who
died in 1850. The young man succeeded
to the title of fourth baronet, May 9,
1895 He is 80 years of age, and has al
ready made himself talked of on two
continents by his fast life.
He has twice visited the United
States. Upon the first occasion, a con-
fidence man named McDermOtt bun
coed young Peel out of a large sum of
money, and during the second visit he
renewed an acquaintance formed with
Miss Kittie Sanford, of Bridgeport,
Conn, granddaughter of Henry San
ford, president of the Adams Express
company. They had arranged to be
married, but when Mr.. Sanford heard
of it, he broke off the match, denOunc-
ing young Peel in very strong terms.
Sir Robert Peel is reported to have
an income of over $4,000 per annum.
1t is understood that the quarrel was
the outcome of an argument over the
justification of the imprisonment of
Captain Dreyfus, of the French army,
who is serving out the sentence of penal
imprisonment for selling important
military secrets to a foreign govern
ment.
The duke, who considered himself in
suited by certain letters from Sir Rob-
ert Peel, came especially from Geneva
and sent his seconds, including the ia
nous French amateur swOrdsman, NJ.
ThOmeguex to call upon Peel NJ.
ThOmeguex recently had a sO-called
duel with swords with an Italian anna
teur, SignOr Casella, which arose out of
a dispute as to the starched shirt which
the Count of Turin wore during his re-
cent duel with Prince Henri of Orleans.
The representatives of Sir Robert
Peel met the dukes seconds at Litter
acy, a well known club in the Rue Veil
mey, and explained that Sir Robert had
since learned that remarks he had at
tributed to the duke had never been
used and that he, therefore regretted
his letters, which were based upon mis-
statements and rendered a full apoI-
Ogy. The dukes seconds thereupon de-
clared the matter ended.

RAILROADS WANT HELP.
merce Commi ission Shall Get
Them Gut of Trouble.

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE indications
are that the interstate commerce COM
mission soon will issue an order in
compliance with the petition of the
American Warehousemen's association
against the railroads of the country,
requiring the railroad companies to
publish on their tariff sheets and other
wise a uniform time for completing the
delivery of freight of all classes. The
opinion is expressed that this will be
found to be permissible under sections
act, and also under the decisions of the
supreme court. 1t is believed that the
order will be satisfactory to both the
warehOusemen and the railway mana
gers.
The order will be intended to meet
the complaint of the warehouse owners
that the practice which has grown up
among the railroads of giving free stor-
age to shippers in order to get business
the shippers, who by the extent of their
business are able to force the conces-
sion from the roads.
The final hearing in the case arising
under the petition took place before the
commission yesterday. and the repre-
sentatiVes of the railroads admitted
that the free storage system had grown
to be an abuse, which they were not
able to control.
Sixty-nine railroads were complained
of in the petition.
The case was first heard at Chicago.
last June, and since then, there have
been hearings at Cincinnati, Louisville
st. Louis, Kansas City, Detroit, Cleve-
land, Buffalo, New York and Philadel-
phia- The commission will now render
its decision, without further hearings.

HAWAII TO VANISH.
Englishman Predicts That the Island
Will Soon Disappear.

Sioux City. Nov. 10-Phihp Archlba1o
Cunning, an English scientist and spec
ial student of the volcanic phenomena
predicts the total disappearance OF the
Hawaiian islands within the next rev
years.
Mr.. Cunning went to Hawaii several
months ago to satisfy his curiosity con
cernina its formation and the condition
of active and extinct craters there ana
on neighboring islands. He is returning
home now by way of the United States
and stopped here to visit the local Eng
lish colony, with several of whose mem
bers is well acquainted.

Some times they go as suddenly as

conditions are ripe for such a catas-
trOphe at Hawaii. 1 am not yet pre-
pared to give my reasons for this con-
cIusion, but shall publish an article on
the subject on my return to England.
Suffice it to say that 1 am satisfied the
islands are most insecure place of res

Most scientists admit that such a
fate may ultimately overtake them, but
they generally think it will be long
postponed. In my opinion the dispute
concerning their control will soon be
settled by their disappearance"

HORSE HELD BIZ TREES.
A Wandering Nag With a Buggy
Nearly Starves to Death.

HagerstOwn, Ind, Nov 11.-Ten days
ago a valuable horse belonging to Levi
Hoover, who lives near this place, eth
er broke loose or was turned loose
from the hitching post in front of his
house. This occurred about Il o'clock
at night. The horse was hitched to a
buggy and was supposed to have been
stolen and taken out of the county.
Mr.. Hoover advertised in vain. After
he had abandoned all hope of ever re
covering his property, the horse was
found one morning standing at the
gate. Part of the torn harness was
hanging to it and a broken shaft was
attached. The horse, which was fat
and sleek when it disappeared, was
much reduced in weight and apparent
ly very weak.
After a long search the buggy was
found within half a mile of Mr. Hoo
ver's house in thick woods wedged in
between the trees. The appearance of
the ground indicated that the horse had
struggled violently to free himself from
the buggy but had only succeeded in
doing so after several days.

A lady colleague in the Spiritualistic

United States Senator Shelby NJ Cul-
Iom, chairman OF the senate committee
on interstate commerce, has prepared
a report on ticket scalping, the result
of which he says, will be to send the bill
for the prohibition of ticket scalping
through with a rush as soon as con-
greSS meets.
Senator Cullom's position on the ques-
ton is very important. AS chairman of
the committee which has the matter
in charge, he can WELD a most potent
influence on the fate of the measure.
Now that he has come out decidedly in
favor of the measure, railroad officials
regard the bill as good as passed.

BRITISH TURNED BACK.
An Invading Column Forced to Re
treat With Heavy Loss


Simla, Nov. 1L-OficiaI dispatches
received from the British camp in
the Madam valley tell of a "reconnOis-
sance" in force by the British, which
resulted quite seriously to the govern
ment forces. The movement was
commanded by Brig. Gen. WestmacOtt
and the British force consisted of the
DOrsetshire regiment, the Northamp-
tOnShire regiment, a regiment of Sil1hs
and two batteries of artillery. This
column moved yesterday to Sran-Sar
and reached the summit of the noun
tain with little resistance where it
went into camp, but soon after retired
upon the main body. This latter move
ment was attended by serious losses.
The inSurgent tribeSmen followed the
column in strong force, swarming from
behind the rocks, showing wonderful
audacity and keeping up a heavy fire
at short range upon the British troops.
Only the admira BILE disposition made by
Gen. WeStmacOtt of his troops saved
held the men together and saw all the
wounded taken away before he retired
himself.
On the way back to camp, the trans
port of the wounded was greatly ham
pered by the fact that the troops had
to retire on very broken country sur
rounded on all sides by swarms of the
enemy's skirmishers. The route was
intersected every hundred yards or so
by deep raVineS and it was while the
troops were engaged in passing
through this ground that the tribes
men rushed upon them fearlessly max
ing their way up the ravines to close
quarters. The Northamptonshire reg
iment suffered, the many casualties be-
ing incurred while saving their wound
ed.
All the wounded reached camp about
dark and it is stin hoped that a mis-
sing officer and II men will reach
camp safely.
The loss of the British was about fif-
ty men killed and wounded. The
NOrthamptonshire regiment lost Lieu
tenant Waddeu and four men killed
and Lieutenant Mcintyre of this regi-
ment and II men are missing. The
NOrthamptOnshire also had Lieutenant
Trent and 80 men wounded. The Dor
SetShlre regiment had Lieutenant In
gram, Lieutenant Mercer and six men
wounded. The Sikhs lost two men
killed and six wounded

A Question Often Asked by Those

People often become afflicted with
piles and ask some old chronic who
has always persisted in the wrong
treatment and naturally he discOurages
them by telling them that their case is
hopeless.
