DANGEROUS DAYS.
They Are Upon Us and They Need TO
Be Watched Very Carefully.

OF all times, of all seasons of the year,
this is the most dangerous. 1t is a time
when the air is filed with disease, when
the wind watts pneumonia The deaths
from this one trouble alone are simply
alarming and in spite of all warnings
they seem to be increasing. Pneumonia
comes suddenly; ii acts quickly; it fan
too often results fatally. 1t is all the

those from the broken South who sought
home here by the western sea. And
here in this land the man with the cloud
upon his life prospered His two daugh-
ters were sent to Paris to be educated.
and he was counted a prominent man
when he turned his face toward his native
state one day, thirty-three years after the
time he had been driven in disgrace from
the Confederate ranks. He trusted that
time had duiled the edge of his old COM
mander's resentment, and he longed to see
him again and clasp his hand with a sol
dier's greeting.

souri,, a servant of the government to aid

EAGLES ELECTROCUTED.
The billing and Cooling of Two
Eagles Caused Their Death.

From the San Francisco Examiner.
Two gigantic eagles by strange acct
dent were electrocuted on the thick cop
per wire by which the electric power is
transmitted for thirty-ive miles into
Fresno from its mountain source. They
were burned to a cinder.
These wires are strung from the three
vertices of a frame shaped like an equila-
teral triangle and are twenty-five inches
aDart The two top wires are on the same
level. and the great birds found them
selves quite close together when they
alighted.
IT Is evident, however, that an attempt
was made at closer companionship. Prob
ably the lordly male leaned over to whis-
per some sweet nothing into his mate S
willing ear. Be that as it may, their
heads came close enough together to es-
tablish what electricians call short
circuit" and 11,0O0 volts of electricity
flashed from the body of one eagle to the
other.
They fell forward across the wires
dead. The intense heat generated by the
massage of the powerful current from one
wire to the other melted the copper like
so much wax, although the wires are
thicker than an ordinary lead pencil
Both wires fell TO the ground, the great
birds clutching their slight but fateful
with the ground again established a cir
cult. and though il could not have lasted
more than a half minute, both birds were
almost completely incinerated. Only the
charred skulls and the bag talons, with a
heap Of ashes, a bit of the wishbone and
one or two feathers remained to show the
cause of the trouble TO the patrolmen
who appeared couple of hours later to
repair damages.
1t is known that the birds were expos
ed to the electric current for only a frac-
ton of a minute, because Immediately
upon the breaking of the wires, auto
matte alarms are sounded at the power
houses at both ends and, as quickly as
possible, the current was switched to a
set of reserve wires, ieaving the broken
wires free.
The line men gathered the portable re-
mains of the eagles, cutting the wires so
as to leave them in the grip Of the talons
from which the muscles had been burnt
and showing the ends Of the half-con-
sumed leg bones.

MEN BETTER THAN MACHINES
superior Product Turned Out b,
Hand ut New Bedford.

Boston, Jan. 23.-The center of interest
ing scenes in the textile troubles in New
England temporarily shifted from New
Bedford to this city to-day for the meet
ing of the executive council of the Inter-
national Spinners Union. This meeting
was called to consider the strike in New
England, and also the matter Of the FAN
River mills and other mills in New Eng
land where strikes or lockouts have al
ready taken place.
The meeting decided to concentrate all
EFFORTS on the New Bedford organization,
leaving Fall River and the difficulties IN
other cities for local committees to handle
as well as possible.
The spinners say that the machines do
inferior work, and that their Introduction
into the mills. in New Bedford had NOT
been profitable to the mill owners. In mills
where the ring trainers have been used
no dividends have been paid. The in
stance was cited of one mill having had
to shut down for ten days simply because
there was no demand for its product after
the machinery took the place of the men
The New Bedford strike situation was
fully discussed, and the general oninion
seemed to be that settlement of the
trouble would be long time in coming
IN TACT, Secretary Ross said he did not
look Tor its solution until far into the sum
mer, it, indeed, it came then.
The organization there has strong
backing, and it was disclosed to-day that
the operatives had anticipated trouble so
lar ahead that an assessment of fiftv
cents a week had been levied and paid for
nearly two years. Notwithstanding this
Iund the organizations in all the mills
cehters VIII be asked to help the New
Bedford strikers and Fall River will CON
tribute as well as others.
The trouble in the Waterville mills was
brought to the attention of the commit
tee. A 10 per cent. reduction in wages
was proposed in Waterville by the mill
owners, but a conference was held and a
compromise made on 10 per cent.
strike is anticipated, for there is
much indignation over any reduction in
wages whatever. A cut of more than 10
per cent. will surely result in a strike If
there is one the strikers will be supported
, Dy the local union as long as possible.
Then the national organization will take a
hand.

Lion Hearted Hines of Kentucky
Joins the Heroes Gone Before.
Frankfort Ky, Jan. 23.-Judge Thomas
Henry Hines, ex-Chief Justice of the
Court of Appeals, and one of the most
distinguished citizens of Kentucky, died
this morning at Z o'clock, after an i'll
ness Of several weeks.
Judge Hines entered the Confederate
army at the opening of the civil war; In
a short time he proved himself such a
daring soldier that he was made a cap
TAIN and often commanded Morgan's bril-
gade.
Perhaps the most notable event in his
military career was his escape from the
ONO penitentiary in company with Gen.
John Morgan and four other Confederate
captains. Capt. Hines chiefly planned
the escape, and assisted in the arrange
nents for its successful execution.
For his gallant conduct he was given the
rank of brigader general. He then, I'M
DER John c. Breckenridge, at Toronto,
canada, commenced the study of law but
afterwards moved to Memphis, Tenn,
Where he completed his law studies while
editor OF the Memphis Daily Appeal. He
tnen moved to Bowling Green where he
distinguished himself as a lawyer, and
established such a record that he was
tiecled to the Court of Appeals, where he
u-splayed the highest legal ability.
