Those who suffered by crucifixion sometimes fingered three or four days-Jesus lived about five hours. While hanging on the cross He spoke seven times. Soon after the cross was raised. looking over the coarse and brutal soldicry, and the mistaken fanatics who had bounded Him to that hour, He uttered prayer, which has probably made deeper inn pression on the world than any other single prayer ever offered: Father, for give them, for they know not what they do,"

THE CRUCIFIXION.
Death on the Cross a Terrible
 Form of TOrture.

"Crucifixion was terrible death, ," writes the Rev. Amory H. Bradford, D.. D.. apropos of Holy Week, ln an article on The Last Week in Christ's Life" in the April Ladies' Home Journal. "It was reserved for offenders of a servile class and never used for Roman clti- zen. The hands and feet of the victim were nailed to the wood, and kind of rude seat was provided-just enough to prevent the weight of the body from tearing through the flesh. The exact spot where Jesus was crucified cannot now be identified. Golgotha was prob ably some skull-shaped hill outside the city wail.' Thither a strange pro- cession wended it's way-the condemned with their crosses on their backs, the hard hearted rabbIe making fun of them as they passed. The strength of Jesus failed before the destination was re- ached, and another was compelled 10 carry the cross for Him. This crucifix- ion, like all others, WAS cruel and bar barous in the extreme. The execution CTS were Roman soldiers, but 8 host of Jews feasted their eyes on the bideous sight.

USED IN SMOKELESS POWDER.
Japan Has Paid "a Fortune in Taxes
on Its Purchases Of spirits-united
states Heavy Buyer.

The internal revenue collections for
October in the Peoria Qll.) district
amount to over $2,2OO,000, which is far
above the average at this season of the
year.
The unusual demand is due to the ef-
forts of this and other governments to
supply themselves with smokeless pow
der, of which spirits are an important
component
The Standard Distilling company has
just sent special train of % cars of
spirits to San Francisco, consigned to
the japanese government, which will
use it in the manufacture of smoke
less powder. The shipment made near
ly million gallons, and paid over a
million dollars tax.
Two more large shipments for Japan
have been ordered for November.
Since the war broke out the Peoria
distilleries have sold over 1000 barrels
of spirits to the United States govern
ment for smokeless powder.

DOG A CHICKEN ROBBER.
Henneries Are Being systematically
Robbed by n Bright New
York Canine.

The police of Westchester county, n.
Y, are looking for two men who own
a trained dog which they are using TO
rob henhouses. Late the other night
Mrs. Michael Komoisko, who has a large
Lenhouse in Mount Vernon, saw two
men hide in the bushes near the hen
merry after the door had been opened
by one of them. She was then greatly
surprised to see a big black dog bound
across the lawn and enter the coop, re-
turning with chicken in his jaws,
which he carried to the men, who put
the bird into sack or basket.
The dog then ran back to the hen
merry and bagged another fowl before
the inmates of the house, who were
dumfounded by the spectacle, thought
about giving an alarm.
Eighty pullets were stolen in one
night from another hennery recently,
and a dogs tracks in the vicinity indi-
cate that the same means were en-
ployed.

WILL WASTE NO MORE TIME.
DeIay I'm Reaching ID e cision as to Phil
ippines Must End - Spain
L. Warned.

Washington, Nov. IA final ultima
tum to Spain was drafted at the special
meeting of the cabinet Saturday night.
In effect it declares that there shall he
no more discussion by the peace COM
missioners of the right Of America to
the Philippines. The president and the
cabinet have reached the decision that
that issue admits of no further argu-
ment The islands have become con-
quered territory of the United States,
and the Spanish government no longer
possess right or title TO them. This be-
ing SO, the discussion in Paris is to Do
strictly confined to the manner of the
evacuation of the islands by Spain.
This radical decision simplifes mat
ters greatly for Judge Day and his con-
freres. They have become irritated
over the dilatory tactics of Senior Rios
and the other Spanish commissioners,
and had begun to fear the negotiations
would drag their weary length along
until the beginning of the new year.

For the first time since it was de-
signed the presidents own flag waved
over his head when he stood in Phila-
delphia at the peace jubilee viewing the
parade. This standard was designed
by Frederick ID. Owen OF the war de-
partment, and is the first that has been
thought of or adopted by chief eX
ecutive Of the United States. Each Off
Ger of the army and navy has his spe-
cial flag, and il seemed an oversight
that one has not existed for the presi

both branches of the service. The flag,
with which President Mckinley is
greatly pleased, was adopted by the

near Trenton, y. j., is a nut gatherer.
His only companion on his nut gather
ing trips is collie called Glim. Hewitt
took this dog into the hills in quest OF
shellbarll walnuts the other day. He
climbed tree and fell. but the back
of his coat caught on broken limb and
there he hung in midair, 30 feet from
the ground in such a position that he
could not do anything TO release him
self or get hold of any part of the
tree.
Glim appreciated the situation of
his master and expressed his interest
and anxiety for over an hour by bark
ing and running about in an aimless
way. Then he sat down on the ground
'and seemed TO be buried in thought.
Silently he sat for five minutes, then he
sprang up wagged his tail gave a short
bark and disappeared among the trees.
In two hours the dog returned with
some Of Hewitt's neighbors and he was
released from his uncommon and peril

sergt. Anthony, whose Cool Nerve
Made Him Famous and Won
Him = Wife.

A notice in one of the New York
morning papers the other day an
nounced the marriage of Sergt. William
Anthony, of the marine corps, and
Adella Maude Blancet, of that city.
Sergt. Anthony will be remembered as
hero of the Maine disaster. Meeting
Capt. Sigsbee ut the door of his cabin
when the ship had already begun to
settle, Anthony, not forgetting to give
the customary salute, uttered the words
that have since become historic:
Excuse me, sir, / have to inform
you that the ship is blown up and is
sinking"
Shortly after this Miss Blancet, al
though not acquainted with Anthony,
wrote TO him a letter complimenting
him for his bravery. Anthony replied,
and they exchanged photographs. The
couple kept up a correspondence un-
til three months ago, when Anthony
was able 10 come TO New York and visit
Miss Blancet at her home i'm East Sew
enty-fifth street. When Anthony was
assigned to the New York navy yard
their marriage was arranged.

English "Guinea pigs"

The troubles of the English nobility
did not stop with the Hooley exposures.
The London Critic has gone on to com
pile choice list of 60 noblemen who are
directors of 100 companies, with a cap
ital of over $500, 100000, the greater
number of which have never yielded a
conservation of the peerage, however,
the title director continues to draw
handsome fees, and it is calculated that
one noble lord who is director in Ia
companies receives more for the use OF
his name than the shareholders received
for the use of SIS, 100000.

Dealing Death to Two.

Wichita. Kan, Nov. IA report was
received in Wichita Sunday afternoon
that two children in a family named
Henderson were crushed and burned to
death by falling meteors near Perry,
o. T.. Saturday night. Six big Jumps OF
blazing iron went whizzing through the
air towards the surface of the earth,
and the heavens were as light as day.
When the meteors struck the earth the
jar was sufficient to break window
lights in many homes. The two chill
dren killed were sleeping in the same
bed. A mass of iron four feet in cir
cumference fell through the roof and
crushed them into the ground. Their
bodies were buried and burned so as to
be almost unrecognizable.

THEY ARE STARVING.
Strong Appeal Received at Washing
ton in Behalf of Cuban Army.
Surrounded by Plenty, and Yet They
Cannot Take without Violating
the Peace COnditions-In Des-
peration They May Revolt.

The following letter from Lieut.. Col.
Carbonne, of the Cuban army, now at
Havana, has been received by Secretary
Quesada, of the Cuban delegation at
Washington. who has laid it before Sec
reUry Alger with an urgent request
that steps be taken to relieve the eX-
treme distress it sets forth. Lieut.. Col.
Carbonne is the inventor of the eXplo-
Sive known as carbonite, and is re-
garded as the representative at Havana
CT the Cuban leaders and forces in the
field. He writes as follows, the letter
bearing date of Havana:
Il am just back from the camp of Gen.
Menocal, chief Of our army In this province,
and let me tell you I'm some faint way the
true state of our poor and suffering army
and the consequences that may come TO
the country If we do not find I'm a short time
a remedy which VIII save US The cuban
army is dying Of hunger. Such terrible
words in no way eXaggerate the actual con-
ditions Gen Menooal took me to see his
weak, totterng and squalid soldiers-made
so on account of the want of food and the
actual necessaries of life-and think that
these men were in such state by reason
of obeying their chiefs. who desire first
of all TO respect the orders OF the American
government The Cuban leaders in camp
told me to tell you that they will maintain
resignation and patience, and above all
faith i'm the American government and the
worthy president, Mr.. Mckinley, but at the
same time let II be understood that we are
hungry that we have In the towns and
fields OF Cuba all that is needed in the way
of food, but that we are forbidden TO touch
IL by reason Of the peace order. They do
not get from Havana one-fourth OF what
they need and our soldiers are dying al the
gates of the city for lack Of food. What
shall we do? The time will come when We
cannot bear IL any longer, and then what
will be the result? l returned discoDso-
| late to Havana and tried 10 get succor, but
the people are already so poor that OBJ
, tanned nothing. We went to the American
| commission, which received us very well
and offered us much, but up TO the present
time they have given us noth hing. II by mis-
| fortune we are driven by the necessities OF
| our army TO get by force what we need so
| as not to die Of hunger, Will the people Of
| the United States condemn us, or Will the
nations of the world, which do not know
| what is happening. Judge us unworthy OF
! the sympathy Of the American people
! We were very happy 10 hear your assur-
| ances as to our republic. We have never
| doubted the good faith and generosity OF
! the United States To 1t we owe the COM
! pete liberty which We have been unable
! in many years TO establish by ourselves"
Secretary Alger said that he would
look into the matter and would tele-
graph the commission at Havana such
instructions as were appropriate to the
case.
