Major Gulick was one of the men
charged with misprision of treason aft
er the attempt of January, 1895, to re-
store the monarchy. During his deten-
tion of nearly year he was in the
hospital almost every day. Those who
were with him learned to love the
generous nature and the unreserved
unselfishness of the man. He told his
wife to send him no food or delicacies
unless there was enough for those
with him. In a very weak condition,
caring not for himself, he assisted in
nursing an ailing Chinaman in one of
the wards. The last act of native
whose soul went to it's maker from
that place was to kiss the check of
Major Gulick. John F. Bowler, who
was present, declares this was the
most affecting scene he ever witnessed
or heard of in his life.
Late in 1894 and early in 1895, Major
Gulick was attacked first with the
| whooping cough and then with la
grippe. 1t is now nearly two years
since the germ of the dreaded cancer
| first manifested itself His system was
| in no condition for resistance. He has
been patient sufferer and his wife and
mother have been unremitting in their
attentions. Both these women, who
must be nearly worn out, bear up re-

fulness for the work and kindness OF

Experience serves to prove that the

Judge Bliss today, by special
request, charged the grand jury
in the law on the shooting of
escaping prisoners by officers.
He, in substance, told them in
open court that the shooting of
a prisoner by an officer was only
justifiable when the officer was
violently resisted and was in
danger of death or great ply
steal injury or when a prisoner
under sentence for a felony
was about to escape and could
not be deferred from doing so
otherwise.

Marconi, Its Inventor, Has Gone to the
soudan to Make Experiments.
LONDON, Aug. 4.-Marconi, inventor
of the wireless telegraph has just
reached Soudan, where trial of the
invention will be made In an inter-
view, Marconi said: 1.-The greatest dis
tance which we have been able to
transmit messages by telegraph with
out wires is twelve miles, but that bv
no means is the limit of the instru-
ments; it simply signifies that existing
appliances are not perfect. At Spezia,
l sent messages without wires from
the San Bartolomeo arsenal to the
warship San MARITIME, twelve miles
out in the harbor, without difficulty
