go wrong. sometimes Last week we
had several coed local news items writ>
ten up for the paper, which failed t. get
in because they got hung up on the

from the western part of New Mexico
with shipment Of 400 head of cattle
for c. ID. Perry. and some cows and
cal, es for himself; and how that the
siockmep IN the region where he was are
selling off all their cattle and going into
the sheep business We also wanted 10
say that Miss Martha Redimer had gone
coming wiAter; that Perry Chilcott had
complimeuted this Office with a box OF
mighty fine homegrown peaches; and
that Charles White had some Seeding
peach trees only two years old which

rs a result W the development Of our
public school systela and the cheapening
of books. there has grown up large
class of men and women who seek
broader education. or desire to extend
their knowledge along special lines.
Their duties in life. or lack of means,
exclude them from the universities. The
Cosmopolitan Magazine has undertaken
the task Of bringing liberal education. in
ITS broaGest sense. within the reach of
OF those who have the aspiration, but
are deprived of the opportunity. roctor
Andrews. late of Brown University. has
undertaken the Presidency of the Cos

work, thus begun. is not intended TO
take the place Of regular university
work. hut TO supply gap in educational
facilities. These who are really in search
of knowledge will fird direction and aid.
II can do nothing for those who have
not the desire 10 study. An intending
student sends to The Cosmopolitan, New

courses of study, studies desired to be
pursued. objects and purpose for which

WASHINGTON, Nov. ga startling
and horrible story Of the killing Of two
Washingtonians and the mutilation OF
their bodies by the natives Of the Congo
Free State has just been received here
in a letter to Mr. Leo Harmon of this
city. The men were members of party
which, during November and December,
1894, and January, 1895, went from this
city to enlist in the Belgian army for
service in the Congo state. Those en-
listing included Edward Thornton, a
command officer of National Fencibles,
employed in the war department; Lind
say Burke, Frank Bachelor, Harry r.
Andrews, Harry Sparlin and Mr.. Mel
lin or Mellen, who was at one time q
non-commissioned officer Of the United
States army. All except Thornton and
Mellin were members Of the National
Guard Of this district.
The information received by Mr.. Har-
mon is that Mr.. Burke and party Of
eighty natives, who were sent odt to dis
lodge a band Of dwarfs who had revSit-
Gu, were UQSllGO dlQ Aliloos AL I'll d ~,
who was with the command but was
some distance of at the time Of the an
bush, states that he knows Burke was
dead before the natives reached him and
that the most hideous- looking little man
he ever saw walked up and cut Burke's
head Off with one blow Of knife. The
chief then began to slice pieces Of his
legs and arms and to distribute them
among his followers. There we're so
many Of the fiends that the pieces were
very small, and before they had con-
cluded there was free fight to see who
could get the little remaining. In some
manner the dwarfs became alarmed and
left the place, one fellow carrying on
Burkes arm. The Arab saw the cause
OF their alarm as Windeye, a New York.
er, who had command Of another de-
tachment of soldiers, sent out on the
same errand, who arrived few hours
after the natives left.
Windeye gathered up the remains OF
Burke and buried them. When he
learned the strength Of the rebels he
hurried back to Michau and notified the
commander Of the post.
The other Washingtonian who lost his
life was killed on March 1. when the
troops under command Of Baron Dharis
revolted near Bakanbarre, and assassi-
mated a number Of officers Of their regi-
ment, among them being Mellin. The
body Of Mellin was butchered almost be-
yond recognition, his heart having been
cut out and burned.
Thornton Is said to be in a very pre-
carious condition at Basaka. A relief
expedition has been sent to his rescue.
Gage, another American, Is very sick
with fever at vangine. The killing Of
Burke occurred In December. 1895.

Wallsee. He was afraid that Vienna was
on the brink Of q revolution. The troops
remained In readiness all nighl
It Is understood Count Zoluchowski,
the Austro1Hungarian foreign minister,
strongly advised the emperor to dismiss
the cabinet. AS an indication Of the un-
character of the crisis the
police are distributing gratis copies OF
the Wiener Zeitung announcing the res
ignation. Baron Gautsch will form a
neutral cabinet Of governmental officials
and endeavor to arrange an understand
ing between the German and Czech lead
ers on the language question.
Herr Wolff when arrested yesterday in
the reichsrath resisted with such energy
that he broke away a portion Of his seat.
1t took six constables to overpower him.
Twice he sprung out of the cab in which
he was being carried to the police sta
ton, and as 1t drove of with him at q fu-
rious pace he shouted to the crowd:
people Of Vienna. don't let your deputy,
Wolff, be arrested"
The constables threw him back into
the cab, threw a muf11er over his mouth
and held 1t there. There Is no doubt that
this arrest, together with the fact that
the Luegerites yesterday, seeing that
popular discomfort was rapidly growing,
abandoned their fierce attitude and es-
poused the obstructionists cause, was
the chief element that brought the sud-
den turn Of events.

PARIS, Nov. 2s.-According to the
Intransigeant. Colonel Picquart, who
was summoned to Paris in con-
nection with the Dreyfus affair.
and whose statements are re-
puted to be the basis Of the accusations
brought against Comte Ferdinand Wal
bin Esterhasy. fAs been sentenced to
thirty days detention in a fortress
General Pellioux, who was appointed
by General Saussier the military gov
ernor Of Paris. to conduct the investiga-
tion Of the charges brought against
Comte Esterhasy. has completed his In
Quiry, the result OF which will be an
nounced on Tuesday next by General
Billet, the minister Of war.
The Journal asserts that the inquiry
will result in the exculpation OF Comte
Msterhasy.
The Figaro says that General Pellioux
today seized letters written by Comte
Esterhasy In which the writer insults
and violently attacks the heads OF the
French army.
The Figaro caused sensation today in
connection with the Dreyfus affair by
publishing several letters purporting to
have been written by Comte Ferdinand
Walsin Esterhaxy. who has been accused
by M. Scheurer- Kestner, one Of the vice.
presidents Of the senate, Of being the au-
thor of the unsigned letter which led to
the condemnation Of Dreyfus.
In one Of them, after expressing his
Intention to enter the Turkish service,
Cornte Esterhaxy is reported as saying:
II shall not leave without having
played trick Of my own on those amia-
BILE Frenchmen."
Other passages illustrating the char
aeter Of the letter follow:
s"Our cowardly and ignorant great
chiefs will go once more to people Ger
man prisons"
Il shall be perfectly happy If were
told I was to be killed tomorrow as a
captain Of Uhlans sabering Frenchmen."
Il am capable Of great things or crimes
II that could avenge me. would not
harm little dog, but I would have
hundred thousand Frenchmen killed
with pleasure"
Comte Esterhazy proceeds to say that
"Hrsnchmcn are not worthy of the cart
ridges intended to kill thcm." and he
conjures up "a dream, Of festivity" in the
shape Of the pillage Of Paris by hun
dred thousand drunken soldiers.
