Henry AhO Murdered

At one o clock yesterday the
city was startled by the report of
murder near Carmicharl's Sc
loon. An investigation proved
such to be the case. 4 Finland
er, huge, six-foct fellow, by the
name OF Henry AhO, n labortr
employed in the big lumber mill
at Panasoiikce, had been shot to
death with a pistol In the hands
OF a companion, so the witnesses.
a negro man and woman, said
-Four Of the men had come up
from Panasoffkee. The witness
cs testify that two OF them were
quarrelIng at the rear of the
threc-Story annex to Carmi-
chael'S saloon and at the corner
OF the fence, where there is n lit
tie alley. Aho struck the other,
a smaller man, with a revolver,
when the latter shot Aho in the
shoulder, the ball ranging down
ward and penetrating his heart
death ensuing in few minutes.
When the Star reporter ar
rived Coroner Crawford was
there and jury was empanelcd.
The body had already been car
ried into u little room in the rear
of the annex, before referred to-.
by the negroes, they say, though
no one saw it done. OF all the
crowd that was gathered around
the depot at That hour not Il soul
will say that he saw the deed
with the exception of the ne
grOes. One or two men i'm the
freight office saw the murderer
run away, with blood flowing
from a wound on the head Pur-
suit was made but he could not
be found. No one heard the
shot, so far as can be learned, cx-
cept the above named witnesses.
The coroncr's jury adjourned
until this morning, when every
witness was examined that could
throw any light on the subject,
and arrived ut the following YER
dict:
THAT the said Henry Aho
came to his death in the follow
ing manner, TO wit: by Il pistol
shot wound, the shot fired by the
hand of party unknown to Us,
but from descriptions gwen and
! from other circumstances shown
/ in the evidence, we believe that
John Scratney inflicted the wound
which caused the death OF the
said Henry Aho on NV Is, 1898"
The body was buried i'm the
city cemetery this morning by
/ Undertaken McIver. Mr.. Rice of
the mill where the deceased was
employed, told Mr.. Newer that
he would defray the expenses Of
, the burial.

LONG FINGER NAILS.
An Indication of Rank and Good
breeding in Many Oriental
Countries.

The countries where the long finger
nail is most affected are Siam, Assam,
Cochin China and China. The approved
length varies from three or four to
twenty-three inches. A Siamese ex.
quiste permits the nails on his fingers
TO grow to such an extent that his
hands are practically useless. The arts
tocrats who affect these nails cannot
write, dress themselves or even feed
themselves.
The Siamese hold the long finger nail
in the same reverence we hold the fam
lily tree. Many of them never have had
their nails cut from the day of their
birth. On the first finger the nail is
of moderate lcngth-three or four
inches-while on the other fingers the
nails grow occasionally to two feet.
The thumb nail, which is also allowed
to grow long, after reaching certain
length curves around like a corkscrew.
In both China and Siam the owners
of long nails wear metal cases over
them to preserve them, mace of gold
or silver, and jeweled. While long nails
are not regarded as singular in China,
they are rarely met with except on fa-
natics and pedantic scholars.
Among the fakirs in Hindoostan a
peculiar custom is that of holding the
hand tightly clenched and in one po-
sition SO long that at last the nails
grow through the palm, emerging at
the back of the hand and growing
thence almost to the wrist. When the
wasted muscles refuse to support the
arm any longer it is bound in position
with cords.
In Nubia the long nail is regarded as
indicative of good breeding. The aris-
tocrats constantly subject their finger
tips to cedar wood fire to insure a good
growth.
The inhabitants of the.Marquesas is
lands are among the most expert tat.
tooers on earth, and not even the crown
of the head, the fingers and the toes
are exempt from the needle. The hands
are ornamented with utmost care, all
the fingers having their own pattern,
so the hand would look as though in
cased in a tight-htting glove were il
not for the finger nails Of enormous
length which complete the hand adoru-
ment Of the Weather natiyes.-Chica-

WAR MEMORANDA.
Some Facts Which 1t Will BE Worth
While to Remember in
These Times.

The thickest armor on American war
ships is the 1S-inch armor on the bar
bettes and the waterline belts of the
battleships of the Indiana class.
The main battery guns in the United
States navy are all breech-loading rifles
of 4, 5, 6, s, 10, ~ and 10 inches caliber.
Some of the six-inch and all the four
and five-inch are Of the rapid-fring
kind. The guns of the secondary bat
terry are 1, 3, 6 and 12-pounders, rapid-fire
and machine guns of several types,
using musket bullets.
The boarding pike has been abol-
ished, but cutlasses are retained. Yes
sells may yet be carried by boarding, es-
pecially when at close quarters, as in
ramming. Machine guns are deadly on
boarders.
A searchlight may defeat its purpose
by revealing the position of the ship
using it. Besides, searchlights are
good targets for small rapid-ire and
machine guns and thus may be quickly
put out of action.
very lew VI luc uhS III any sun Pc oi Z
protected by much, if any, armor. The
old rule that the ship whose men stand
to their guns the longer is the one that
will win is true as ever.
When a warship goes into action she
either leaves all except one or two of her
boats on shore or drops them overheard.
This is because they would probably be
destroyed ten minutes after firing be-
gan, and would also make dangerous
splinters. If the ship goes down her
people go down with her.
A commanding officer may make what
disposition he chooses of his forces. 1t
is customary to assign commissioned
officer to the duty of gun-pointer in the
big turrets, but an enlisted man might
and would be given this vitality impor-
tant position If he was thought to pos
sess the necessary qualifications to a
greater degree than the officer.-Town

When Georgia is actually invaded then

SO happy to get here, and in whose sun

wife, Mrs. Arp, was sewing away on

Ma m moth Docks.

The marine docks at Portsmouth,
England, are the vastest in the world,
covering more than 300 acres and en-
ploying some 10000 men. Two of the
largest docks are GOO feet long and IS
feet broad. All are what is known as
stone craving docks. They are dug out
of a sufficient depth, length and width,
to enable vessels of a certain size to
be admitted. They are constructed of
granite and fitted with heavy gates;
the vessel is foated into the dock and
properly shored up on the keel blocks
the gates are closed-the water then
pumped out. Such docks are all below
the level of the dock yard. The walls
are built with stairs like the seats in an
amphitheater, so that workmen may
go up and down; and great cranes lift
ing 40 tons are used in handling ma
terials. When a vessel is completed all
that is necessary to launch her is to
open the gates, fill the dock and she
floats out without risk or trouble. The
advantage of number of docks at a
station is the readiness with which a
. small vessel may be put into a small
dock and large vessel into large
one at once, this being done with so
much economy of time and labor
