In an article in the New York Indepen-

quote from Bourdillon and gave these lines:
The night has a thousand eyes;
Love has but one.
When one poet quotes from another he
should be accurate. especially when the
verses are so well known as these.

Governor Hastings gives as a reason for
declining to meet the labor commissioners
and governors of other States at Pittsburg
in an effort to arbitrate the miners strike
that he has not received any request to do
so from either the miners or the mine
operators of Pennsylvania. The reason
seems very inadequate. Every man, and
especially every public official, owes
duties to society which he should discharge
without standing on ceremony. One who
sees his neighbor in trouble or danger does
rot wait for an introduction before offering
his services. In case where large public
interests are involved 1t is even more the

A CROSS OLD BEAR

Is Emperor Francis Joseph, of Austria
Badly Generally.
Buda, Pest, September 21.-Amoug
the incidents in connection with the
arrival here yesterday of Emperor Will
lam of Germany are the following:
On his way TO the railway station
to meet the German Emperor, En-
peror Francis Joseph passed a Bosnian
division commanded by a general. The
emperor rose in his carriage and cried
in a loud voice:
is that how you drill your
men, general? Look at them They
are disgrace!"
TO the Bosnian colonel the emperor
said: Teach your soldiers the rules,
Colonel, before you let them march
out Of the barracks,"
At three points along the route. EN-
peror Francis Joseph stopped his car
riage and angrily remarked upon the
conduct of the public, who persisted
in trespassing within the lines of
troops.
When the procession. headed by the
two Emperors, was returning from the
railroad station, the horse of the CEN
sured general became FESTIVE and the
general, sheathing his sword. ordered
the Bosnians to open their lines, and
before the imperial party arrived he
rode out Of sight. evidently fearing
the emperor would again censure him.

F0U Nd DEAD.
A Bright Petersburg Boy Killed by
Inhaling Chloroform---A Very Sad
Affair.
Special to the Register.

Special to the Register.
PARKERSBURG, W. Va. September
PA sad death occurred here this morn
ing. Thompson Leach Buckley, only son
of ex-Sheriff and Mrs. ]. L. Buckley, was
found dead in bed.
Thompson has been sleeping on cot
in his fathers room, and retired at the
usual hour. Mr.. Buckley was absent
from home and was rather late in retiring.
He noticed that his son was sleeping
soundly. This morning about o'clock
Mrs. Buckley went to the room to awaken
her son, but was unable to do so. Ply
sicians were hurriedly summoned. Their
services were unavailing, however, as the
vital spark had fed.
The cause Of his death was soon ascer-
tanned. Lying on the cot beside him was
tanned chloroform. His pillow was sat
urated with the drug and he had inhaled
sufficient of the drug to cause death.
There was no reason why the lad should
take his life, and the theory advanced
was that it was the result of an accident.
He was of an inquiring turn of mind and
he probably was investigating the effects
of the drug, with the result as stated
above.
Thompson procured the drug at E. F.
Reifsnyders drug store. He came into the
store about o clock and asked the pro-
prietor for the drug, stating that his
mother wanted it to use in cleaning his
clothing. Mr.. Reifsnyder had sold the
family the drug on former occasions for
the same purpose, and believing It all
right, ordered the clerk to give it to
him.
The family are Frustrated over the sad
affair, and they have the deep sympathy
Of everyone Thompson was about 10
years of age and was an unusually bright
boy. He and his sister spent several
years in study in Europe. where they
made rapid progress in their school work
