AN EXCITING ADVENTURE.

Two Fishermen In Tampa Bay, Fla, Have
Narrow Escape from Devil Fish.
TAMPA. Fla, May 26.-Will Strong
and Harry Davis had an exciting adj
venture with devil fish in the bay
yesterday. While fishing huge devil
fish came up near them. 1t swan
around the boat several times, caus-
ing the men great anxiety, as they
had nothing to fight the hideous thing
with. Finally, in moving about, it
struck one Of the hooks. Off it shot
like a streak, taking hook, line and
pole, the fishermen having no desire to
stop it. Later 1t came back, skinned
around the boat, hitting it several
times; then backed off and came for it
with rush. The men by skillful
shove turned the boat and the monster
missed it. The fish grew angrier and
finally hit the boat with resounding
crash. The men hastily tripped anchor
and, rowing to beacon tripod near
by, climbed out and ran up as high as
possible. The devil fish soon demol.
ished the boat and then hunted the
beacon several times The fish was
fully six feet wide, while Its fippers
extended over ten feet.

CALHOUN'S TASK.


The Cuban Commissioner to Investigate
the Feeling for Autonomy.
WASHINGTON, May 2G.-No further
steps will be taken in regard to Cuba
until the return Of Special Commissions
err Calhoun. SO much was stated at
the white house yesterday afternoon.
An emergency may arise which will
call for action. But If there is no &C.
casion of that kind the president will
wait until he has talked with the com
missioner. That he is keenly alive
to the widespread suffering in Cuba,
and that he appreciates the ex-
tent of popular sentiment for inter-
venton, the recent conversation of
the president with his friends fully in
dicates. At the same time it is evil
dent he is impressed by the gravity Of
what interference might mean. No
time has been set for Mr.. Calhoun's re-
turn. His instructions are to take all
the time he thinks necessary. II is
said at the white house that the com.
missioner will probably take trip
through the island before he starts
home. He may cross into Puerto Prin-
cipe and visit the locality where the
civil government Of the insurgents is
said to be established. He will, at
least, it is thought in administration
circles, have an interview with Gomez
before he leaves the island. If the
commissioner is back by the last of
June it will be as carly as he is looked

Mysterious Night Prowler Who Has Caused

Women.
EMPoBIA, Kan, May 26.-There is a
mysterious night prowler here who has
completely terrorized every woman in

and feminine fright has found victims
In every household. This Jack the

creature, for he has actually been SO
bold as to force his way into the apart.
ments Of young women and there try to
carry away with him the frightened in
mates themselves. Last night nearly
80 residences were visited by the
"peeper" while the men folks were
away, and many women were fright
ened nearly into Mysteries. The man
left only when their screams aroused
the neighborhood. Toward morning
the prowler capped the climax Of his
pranks by boldly entering the window
Of room occupied by four girls, two
Of them being the Misses Berch. BE
went to bed and, picking Miss Berch
up in his arms while she was asleep,
took her as far as the window before
the girl was awakened sufficiently to
know what was the matter. Then her
screams aroused the other three, and
the chorus Of screams aroused the
entire neighborhood. The man
dropped the girl he was carry
ing and, going back to the bed,
he grabbed Miss Bertha Berch by
her foot, dragged her out Of bed
and over the floor to the window. In
the meantime the screams had brought
out the neighbors, some Of whom were
at the door. Seeing this the daring in
truder jumped out Of the window, over
the fence and disappeared. Many saw
him, but none stopped him.

gold and silver from chemically pure
anthony and other base metals has

he had told them were inimical to his

GUTHRIE, Ok, May 26,- Negro wom-

Gov Renfrow for protection. They
claim that the negroes in that town
have been warned by "whitecaps" to
leave the country. Letters were fast

and the women say the negro men are
afraid to make any resistance. One Of
the letters was sent to the governor.
1t said that there was no room there

leave within ten days they would
be harmed. Those possessing prop

though the negroes are often to be
blamed. The ten days allowed by the

A Baptist Divine Says the Millionaire Must
Lead Holy Life Before Ills Gifts Are
Accepted.
PITTSBURGH, Pa, May 26.-The SD
anniversary OF the American Baptist
Missionary union was held yesterday.
1t Is the last Of the great anniversaries
that the Baptist societies have been
holding during the past week. Rev.
W. S. Duncan, secretary, reported for
the year sums received from all sources,
s467, lOl.s9; debt, April /, 1895, $780,
s97.63; debt April /, 1897, s292, 1912.
The union maintains AIS American mis-
sionaries in foreign lands and the
effectiveness Of the work is shown In
the 100000 converts made by them
alone. Rev. W. II. Cossum, returned
missionary from China, created a sen.
sation by questioning the propriety Of
accepting John D, Rockefeller's gift OF
S25O,OOO. He said: when John D.
Rockefeller or any other man oHers
money, we should first demand Of him
that he lead holy life before we
accept his contributions. We should
be sure that the money coming
from millionaires comes from men
who lead consecrated lives. The church
in China can carry on its work without
money from home" An exciting dis
cussion followed. The discussion was
getting warm when DR.. Anderson was
quickly recognized with motion to
adjourn, which was carried, with a
sense Of relief shown by many who
feared great harm might be done

Physicians Seek to Nourish Him by Pro-
cess Of Absorbing Water.
New YORK, May 26.-What physi-
clans claim to be new water cure has
been introduced here. One Louis
Mencke has been in soak" six days,
about IS hours day. He is in tub
of water at Bellevue hospital, and
there he sits day and night, eating
and sleeping with the water as high
as his chin. He is the victim of dis
ease, and the physicians say this
unusual method of treatment is
made necessary to save Menckes
life. He is being treated for
a.rophy, and under this exter-
nal irrigation his condition is much
improved. The disease is wasting
away from lack Of nourishment DR..
Dow, in explanation of his experiment,
said he was struck by the fact that
vegetables and fruits will become re-
vived and fresh by immersion in water,
and he could see no reason why hui
mans should not thrive under such
treatment.
