4 SENATOR'S WIT.
Took a Trip North and Got Funny, Went
 south and Had to Explain.

NEW YORK. March 10.-Ex-Senator Patrick Walsh, of Georgia, is at the Eifth-avenue hotel. Two or three weeks ago when he was in the city he made some facetious remarks about the Cleveland administration. These remarks, he said yesterday, caused him a great deal Of trouble among the dem ocrats of Georgia. His fine satire was lost on the people of his state. The statement that Cleveland had made the country prosperous and happy. and had made the American idea paramount in Hawaii and Cuba, was taken literally, and the people down south asked the ex-senator to explain.
 'Humor is a dangerous thing" he said, and I will leave it alone in fut- ure. l have abandoned the idea of giving a series of lectures on Our Country as Cleveland Found It and as he Lost It. The people of the south and l am speaking seriously now-re- gardless of party, have confidence in President Mckinley. There is no sec tional feeling. The democrats want to see him succeed, and will not do any thing to make his way difficult"

STARTLING NEWS FROM BRAZIL.
Soldiers Murdered. and Newspapers Burned and Their Managers Assassinated by Fanatics.

RIO JAsEIRo. March 10.-The excite ment occasioned here by the receipt of the news, Monday. of the defeat and death of Col. Moreiera Cesar and 200 of his soldiers by band of fanatics, under Conselheiro at Canudas, in the state of Bahai, on March 3, has somewhat abated. though the streets are still filled with people who only need deter mined leader to incite them to renewed disorder.
 The attack upon the offices of three monarchist newspapers at Saopaulo and one in this city. all of which were wrecked and pillaged and afterwards set on fire, was caused by the belief of the mobs that the monarchists were as- sisting Conselheiro.
 Col. Cantil Castro, director of the monarchist newspapers Gazeta da Tarde and Libertrade. whose offices were burned, has been assassinated, and Viscount Ourapreto. a monarchist. was also attacked. but escaped with slight injuries. The offices of the newspapers of monarchist opinions are seing guarded by troops, A regiment of artillery has been sent to Bahia.

RIVALS OF HOLMES.

 surance in Mississippi
TWO PROMINENT CITIZENS INDICTED.
The Insurance Companies Interested Have Already Unearthed Twelve Cases, and They Are Not Half
 Through Investigating.

MERIDIAN, Miss, March 11.-A poison Ing case which promises to rival. if not eclipse, that of the notorious H. H. Holmes, has been unearthed in Kemper county, this state. For four years the citizens of that county have been startled by the sudden death of neigh bors. The deaths became frequent and were surrounded by so many suspicion. circumstances that foul play was more than once suspected, but the authori- ties were baffied in their efforts to run down and punish the guilty parties.
 The latter part of last December a farmer named Davis, living near Scoc- ba, died from unmistakable signs O. poisoning. An investigation was or dered, and it was found that Davis life was insured in the Equitable and the Mutual Reserve Fund life insurance companies of New York and the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Co. of Newark. \. J., for s15,0 ,000. Before the authori- ties had finished Investigating the death of Davis the community was shocked by the announcement of the death of C. T. Stuart, another farmer, under cir. cumstances similar to those of Davis.
 The authorities went to work on this case and discovered that Stuart had died from the effects of a dose of strych- nine administered by Dr. ". H. Lips comb, a physician who has heretofore stood high in Kemper county. The New York life, the Equitable and the Mutual Reserve Fund life insurance companies of New York and the Mutuas Benent Life Insurance Co.,, who has is sued policies on Stuart's life aggregat ing over s20. GOO in favor of Guy Jack, a prominent merchant of Scooba. re- fused payment, and employed Loner- gan's detective agency of New York to aid the authorities in ferreting out the criminals.
 The investigation proceeded quietly until the grand jury met at DeKalb this week and returned indictments against Dr. W. II. Lipscomb and Guy Jack. charging them with murder in the first degree. The cases were called before Judge Huddleston Tuesday, a mony is in progress.
 From facts unearthed by the author ities there is no doubt there is an or ganized gang in Kemper county. com posed of prominent and wealthy people, who have been trafticlxing in human life. Positive evidence has been discovered showing that the lives of more than dozen farmers, mostly poor people. have been insured without their knowledge, for large amounts in favor of Guy Jack, Dr. Lipscomb and others.
 The insurance companies have al ready discovered 12 cases where there was undoubted murder committed for the insurance money, and they are hardly half through with the investi. gation.

ON A HOT TRAIL.
Sherin and Posse Close the Heels of
 the Alabama Train Robbers.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, March 1l.-Sheriff OBrien and posse, who left here at 2 p. m. to pursue the robbers who held up the Louisville x Nashville train, No. 4, near Calera, Tuesday night. are close after the gang in the woods of Shelby county, and news of their capture is hourly expected.
 Further developments show that two of the robbers, carrying rifles, boarded the engine as the train pulled out ot Calera and ordered the train stopped at the water tank two miles north, where four other men were in waiting, all masked and armed with rifles and pistols The ban dits attempted to cut off the express car from the remainder of the train, but failed. They then ordered the express car-door opened and threat ened to dynamite it. As they carried 80 sticks of dynamite in bag the order was obeyed by Messenger Gordon, and the safe was robbed. The amount taken is believed to be about &, 900.

DdilOH, sunk a cylinder three
1eet deep and ten inches in
diameter into the soil, filled it with
earth, made it level with the surface
OF the land, and after the first year
grew grass upon it. By collecting the
water at the bottom of this cylinder
ne found that rs per cent of the yearly
rainfall had percolated through the
earth into it. The difference he attrib-
uted to evaporation. simultaneously
with Dalton, Maurice, at Geneva, using
an iron cylinder filled with earth,
Iound that the percolation was equal to
80 per cent of rainfall amounting to
70 inches per annum. Gasparin, in the
south OF France, in 1902, noted 20
per cent of percolation from a rainfall
OF 28 inches. Dickinson, in England,
IN 1868, at locality where the aver
age rainfall was 26.6 inches, used a
Dalton rain gauge three feet deep and
II inches wide, filed with gravelly
loan and grass-grown at the surface.
He found as the average of eight
years observations that 11.3 inches
percolated in year, or about 42.5 per
cent of the rainfall, while 57.5 per cent
either eyaporated or remained in the
soil. In round numbers tWo-fifths of
the rainfall would pass out of the land
through the drains, though very con-
siderable variations were noticed, rang
ing from 33 to 81 per cent, in the
course of the experiments. Risler, in
Switzerland QS67-68), by gauging
drains that had been laid four feet
deep in a compact impervious soil,
which bore crops at the time of the
experiment, found that 80 per cent of
the average rainfall of Al inches per-
colated, while 20 per cent of it evapor-
ated. Pfaff, in Erlangen, and Void
rich, at Salisbury and at Vienna, found
that only one-fourth of the yearly rain
fall percolated through tWe~feet of bare
soil when the evaporation was greater
thar the rainfall; that almost one
third percolated when evaporation was
equal to rainfall, and that rather more
than one-half percolated when the
evaporation was somewhat less than
the rainfall. Woldrich found invaria-
bly, that less water percolated two feet
in soil upon which grass was growing
than in a bare soil. Very light rains
were wholly lost by evaporation from
the grass leaves, because the drops
chung to the leaves until they evapor-
'ted.
