Carlinville. Ills. June 14.-Captain
Hedley reached this city from Bunker
Hill Mt O'Clock Saturday afternoon, and
was Immediately taken to the sheriff's
office. Many friends were present, who
orersd to go on his bond for any
amount. He placed himself In charge Of
his counsel. ex-Representative John Rim
aker. The preliminary charge was heard
before Justice Alva Cloud and bond
fixed Mt 5000. A message came from
Bunker hin Mt $40 o'clock announcing
Mayor Richards death. Captain He'd

IN and his counsel. hut his whereabouts
IL kept secret. Rumors Of an attempted
lynching by Bunker Hill friends Of
Mayor Richards reached here. but are
not believed by leading men.
The plea In self-defense. and Captain
Hedlcy's csuusel said that under the
circumstances any other course would
have been impossible. The trouble. ac-
cortiing to reports here. has been Of Ions
standing. Both were Republicans, and
the leaders of separate factions. Their
differences during the last campaign
were partly patched UP through the in
PREVENTION Of friends. who induced them

stipulatione. one OF which was that
they should speak to each other in pub

Richards was a candidate for mayor.
Captain Hedley also desired the nemina-
ton. and - announced in his paper.
After powerful pressure he was induced
by richards friends to withdraw. doing

After the election the situation between
the men became very strained. and at

Richards. millionaire and mayor Of this
city. was shot and fatally wounded at
noon Saturday by Captain F. Y. He'd
ley, editor Of the Bunker Hill Gazette.
He died six hours later. The shooting
was the result Of a political feud.
Macoupin county Is excited from one
end to the other by the tragedy. Only
the popularity of Captain Hedley pre-.
vented lynching. Feeling Is running
high. and the prominence Of both men
has aroused intense partisan feeling.
Lynch talk was freely INDUCED in by
the friends Of the murdered man. Edi-
tor Hedley Is In Jail at Carlinville, about
forty miles north OF here. He sur
rendered himself Immediately after the
shooting.
Words That Disgrace Illinois.
He was at once taken to that city to
await the result of the wounds he had
inflicted and to prevent mob violence.
which was feared by the authorities in
case OF fatal termination.
Both the murdered man and the edi-
tor have long been leaders in southern
Illinois politics. and their regulations
have extended beyond the borders of
the state. Mayor Richards was one Of
the most popular men In the county, be-
ing widely known for his philanthropic
x.ia
spring. on the Republican ticket, receiv-
ing the Endorsement Of the regular DEM
ocratic convention. He lived in a hand
some residence. and on his estate had
built an electric light and water works
plant, with which he supplied the city
with light and water free OF charge He
was Sc years Of age and a bachelor.
Had Long Been Political Enemies.
Captain Hedley has national repu-
tation. He was an intimate friend Of
the late Walter q. Gresham, and has
OF late'been engaged by the relatives Of
the former secretary of state in writing
n book or personal memoirs He served
all through the war OF the rebellion with
Gresham. The men were political enc
mics Of years standing. They met at
noon Saturday on one Of the principal
streets. There were a score or more Of
eye-wituesses to the shooting, but none
who heard the words that passed be-
tween them 'beforc the editor drew his
revolver and fred two shots at the mayor
The first shot inflicted a small flesh
wound In the right arm. The second
entered the right side. passed through
the right lung. and lodged in the spine.
Weight Doesn't Count Against q Gum.
Richards was a giant physically. The
man who killed him is a pigmy. The
murdered man weighed $50 pounds and
his assailant tips the beam at barely
14o pounds. After their meeting on the
street blows were exchanged. Richards
struck at Hedley and 1t is claimed made
move to draw a pistol when HedleY
whipped out his revolver and fired the
two shots. The local physicians pro-
nounced the wound fatal but a special
train was sent to St. Louis for DR..
Mudd. who made the run here, thirty
seven miles. In thirty-three minutes,
only to agree with the local doctors.

Says the Chicago Times Fl erald:
Gold production in the United States
has increased with marvellous rapiditv
during the current year The craze
of the Klondike River regions should
not obscure the great facts as they
exist. Klondike's total yield for 1897
seems roughly, to be about SO, OOO, 900.
That is comfortable sum, but it il n
mere nothing when compared with the
wonderful output of the yellow metal
in the United States. This gold from
Alaska is all what is called placer, a
Spanish word meaning an open space
where pure or nearly pure gold is
found. What may be the production
of Alaska when machinery and mining
engineers have done their work there
is no telling. But it does not matter
much--the human race can stand all
the gold Alaska can produce for some
time to come.

supposed to be of very ancient deriva

that this site was originally outside of

by the Romans as "vallum." From
this word came the ballium, applied
In the middle ages to the outside wall

A sleeping car passenger on train
running into Portland, Oregon, strolled
into the smoking car and took a seat
Just ahead of a squaw He was puff

ing something of wag, indicated that
she should make use of au immense
umbrella she had by bringing it down
on the mans head She naturally
presumed that the conductors author
ity was all-suflicient and forthwith
acted on his suggestion with native
vigOr. The mans hat was knocked
down over his eyes and all but ruined,
and the cigar was knocked spinning

hat he turned with not inexpicable
ferocity upon his assaiant but the
squaw merely looked at him with alb

other passengers were convulsed with
merriment he had to retreat to another

Oh where is the world that we used to
In the good glad days of the long ago?
And where Is tho smile of the broad, blue
skies,
As they bent down low to our youthful
eyes?
And whore are the songs of the birds and
bees,
And tho oft-told tales of the whispering
trees?
Where are the voices soft and low.
We knew in the world that we used to
know?
oh, where is the world that We used to
know?
And whore are the roses that used to grow
About our paths; and the fragrant phlox.
Ana the dear, old-fashioned hollyhOcks?
Ana where are the friends whose songs
We blended as blends wreath of nowersy
Yes, where are the ones we cherished so.
In the dear, old world that we used To
know?
oh, where is the world that we used to
know,
And the murmuring brooks that used to
Through dew-kissod meals Of clover
bloom,
Where bees were drunk with the sweet per
fume?
And where ARE the joys that the snow would
bring
AID where is the charm of the newborn
And the summers gold and the autumn :
glow
oh, whore is the world that we used to
know?

A pure food exhibit in Chicago fur.
nishes occasion to the Times Herald
for reminding citizens of the efforts
that are now being put forth by the
Federal Department of Agriculture TO
investigate the character and extent of
the adulteration of foods and drugs in
the United States. This is one of the
most important inquiries, remarks the
Times Herald, that can be inaugurated
under government auspices, and is
without doubt the most valuable ser
vice that the Agricultural Department
can render TO the people Many of
the States have enacted laws 90 pre-
vent adulteration of food, but they are
but indilferently enforced. The only
effective way TO stamp out adulteration
is through Federal laws. and one OF
the objects Of the present Federal in
quiry is TO ascertain to what extent
the State laws on this subject have
been enforced. Adulteratiou of food
aud drugs ~ carried on much more ex-
tensively than the people imagine r.
is a question in which the public is
deeply Interested, because it affects
health, morals aud Legitimate trade.
The European governments are severe
in their punishment Of those who
adultcrate food and drugs. and their
supervision OF all food products is
rigid. II was only recently that the
people OF Switzerland voted for nm
amendment 10 tho constitution which
will provide for government survcil-
lance of all food products, and hcav,
penalties for deliberations. The de-
partment at Washington solicits the
corporation Of all citizens of the
United States in gathering positive
data with reference to authorizations.
