the tanning business at Franklin where
he was quite successful. In 1856 he went
to SWanton where he remained IL years
carrying on his trade. He came to this
county % years ago and bought large
tract Of lumber land in Bloomington. He
Immediately went to work to build a
steam mill and other buildings, and be-
fore this could be done it was necessary to
make nearly mile of road. Before log
was sawed this mill was burned. His en-
ergy and determination are we'll illustrat-
ed by a remark made after his having seen
the ruins of this mill. Some one asked
him how it looked, ssIt looks like a very
good place to build a MILL" So he built a
second mill on the same site which stood
years and then burned up. AS neither of
these mills was insured, his property was
practically swept away. He then deter
mined to regain what was lost moved with
his family to the mill settlement, took
personal charge of everything built third
mill, mostly from the unsawed logs in the
mill yard and with the assistance of his
family regained the most of what had been
lost. He remained at the mill until 1883,
when owing to failing health he moved to
this village. In 1856 he was attacked by
serious kidney disease that for a time
seemed likely to be fatal. From this he
never fully recovered as he was subject to
similar attacks of SO painful a character
that death seemed at times to be the only
possible relief. On Nov. 1 1852 he was

Worlds Hammer Throwing Record
Broken at Bergen Point

NEW YORK, May Notwithstanding the
heavy rain, the track and infield at the
grounds of the New Jersey Athletic club at
Bergen Point, n. j., were in good condition
today for the clubs Memorial day carnival.
The principal features of the games were
the first public appearance in this country
of John Flanagan, Uhe hammer throwing
champion of Ireland and England, and the
promise of another meeting between Colfelt,
OF Princeton, and Wefers, of Georgetown,
in the special race at 800 yards, Colfelt having
beaten Wefers in the 220 yards dash in the
Intercollegiate championship games last Sat
on account of having strained his right leg
he will be seen on the track again this year.
In the hammer-throwing contests, Jim
Mitchell the worlds champion made a poor
showing against Flanagan, who made a new
worlds record, with a throw of $50 feet 8
Inches. The previous record was las feet
q Of an inch, made by Mitchell in 1892 To-
day Mitchell could do no better than 1913
feet inches, and McCracken, of Pennsyl-
vania, beat him for second place by ten
inches. Flanagan was cheered heartily and
Mitchell yielded up the championship with a
good grace. In the contest from nine-foot
circle Flanagan threw the hammer las feet
Ga inches, which is ia inches less than his
own worlds record, which he made in London
over year ago. In this event Chadwick
of Yale, and McCracken, of Pennsylvania,
both beat Mitchell, who threw 20 feet less
than tie winner In the second trial of the
tendon in his right leg as he crossed the
tape and fell heavily on the cinder path.
He will not be able to run again for couple

Won TAUSCH TRIAL RESUMED.
Count Philip Won Gutenberg on the
An Witness Stand.

BERLIN, May 31.-The trial Of Herr
Won Tausch. the former chief of the
secret political police, charged with
perjury, treason and forgery, was re-
sumed today. Herr Friedheim, repre-
senting the chief Of police, testified
that Won Tausch during the course Of
his investigation into the origin of an
article In the Welt am Montag. init
mated that it originated from the
foreign office. The witness added that
before the Won Luetzow trial began Won
Tausch expressed joy at the oppor-
tunity to publicly declare the fact that
the political police did not themselves
engage in politics.
Count Philip Won Gutenberg, the Ger
man ambassador to Austria, testified
that he met Won Tausch at Abazia and
that he publicly requested Won Tausch
if he heard interesting news, to COM
municate it to him. The ambassador,
continuing, asserted that when receiv-
ing clipping from the article in the
Welt am Montag, the statements made
in 1t did not impress him as being con-
nected with any special intrigue, and
he did not question Won Tausch on
the subject.
Chief of Police Windheim testified
that 1T was not the duty of Won Tausch
to report the case of a forged receipt
signed "Kukutsch." The witness said
that he was no longer in a position
to state why he had not informed Herr
Won Koeller, the then minister of in
terror of a mission instructed to Won
Tausch by the minister for war. In
any case, he said no blame was at
tached to Won Tausch in this matter
The witness first heard of the 'Ku-
kutsch' receipt in the course of the
Luetzow-Leckert trial This last state
ment occassioned lively passage be-
tween the public prosecutor and Won
Luetzow's counsel, resulting in the lat
ter, whom the president of the court
threatened to punish for contempt for
throwing up his brief, leaving the
court in a rage. After adjournment,
however, counsel for Won Luetzow &C
cepted the explanations Of the court
and of the public prosecutor and re-
sumed his defense of the case.

SAN QUENTIN REVOLT.
Orders Given to Shoot Down the Re-
belIious COnvicts.

belIious Convicts.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 31.-"Shoot
the first man who breaks out of his
cell.'' That was the order to the
guards at San Quentin prison last
night The prisoners were shrieking
like maniacs and rafting and pound
ing on the iron doors of their cells.
The guards were doubled and each
carried shotgun loaded with buck
shot. Two men who were released,
their terms having expired, have told
what the desperate convicts are plan
ming. According to this story, 1t has
been agreed among the ringleaders
that when they are permitted to re-
turn to work in the jute mill they will
make sudden rush, kill Engineer
Young if necessary, overpower the
guards and completely wreck the
magnificent plant, on which the enor-
nous amount of money, said to be
nearly $1,000,000, has been spent. The
machinery is of such a nature that it
could very soon be damaged and prac-
tically destroyed. There are 1854 pris-
oners within the walls at San Quentin
Over half of them are in open revolt
Many Of the others sympathize with
the violent ones. Warden Hale saws
that all the complaints made by the
men are trivial. Director Wilkins de-
clares that they have no real griev-
ance. Prison Surgeon Lawler says that
the opium fiends, who have been de-
prived of the drug, are at the bottom
Of the trouble.

JUL1ETs EXPELLED FROM SCHOOL.
Two Pretty Girls Talk to TIER Ad-
mirers From a Window.

TRENTON, N. J., May S1.-Just because two
pretty seminary girls leaned out of second
story window moonlight night and talked
with two gallant admirers perohed on a
wall twenty feet below them the faculty of
the Priscilla school for girls at Bordentown
is greatly excited. The rules of the school
prohibit the pupils from talking with young
men when not under the eye Of some of the
faculty and when it became known that Miss
Jane Salisbury, of Brooklyn, n. Y, and Miss
Fanny John, Of Meyersdale, Pa, had dared
to violate that rule they were ordered to
pack their trunks and leave the institution.
The two young men who talked from the
top of the wall were Nick Smith and Percy
Raymond. Both travel with Bordentown's
social set. Miss Salisbury and Miss John
were the most talented of all the pupils in
the school. Miss John was preparing for
Vassar, and after the commencement exer-
cises, which occur June z, are over diploma

in COmpa risOn.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, May 31.-Kid Mccoy
made his appearance tonight in the arena OF
the Quaker City Athletic club in a bout with
Jack Bonner middleweight champion of Penn
sylvania, and made the latter look like
novice. In the first and second rounds he
allowed the Pennsylvania to do all the work
and made but little attempt to lead In the
third, however, Mccoy tapped his man on
the nose and wind at will The fourth fifth
Pennsylvania man resorting to hugging to
save himself from a Knockout. Just as the
gong sounded at the close of the sixth round
Bonner swung wildly the Kids jaw,
knocking him down, but he was UP in a
second. Bonner is not in McCoy's class. AS
the round closed Mccoy slipped and fell.
In the preliminary bouts, six rounds each,
Jack Smith defeated Clarence Haldeman; Joe
Ashton outpointed Tim Callahan; Billy Payne
and Martin Judge fought a draw, and Eugene
Rowan had a shade the better of his bout
with Frank Bradley.
