Alexandria Herald of May 5, says:
Fired Blck's house, located just north
of the Hanson county line in Miner, was
struck by lightning Saturday evening.
The gable was wrecked and the house
caught fire in three places. His little

REGRETS of Officials

WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.-The greatest
regret was expressed in official circles re-
gardng the loss of the Maria Teresa. Sec,
retary of State Hay said that he was indeed
sorry to hear that it had been found lmpos-
sible to bring the vessel to the United States,
when everybody was SO much interested IN
her. He expressed qualification that no
loss of life was reported in consequence OF
the disaster. -,
Acting Secretary Allen, of the navy, said
the loss was much greater than any intrin-
sic value represented in the ship. She was
the link that connected the great naval VIC
tory with theo United States. 1t was SEN
timent in this country that brought SUCCESS
in raising her, and it was the wish OF the
whole people that she should be brought TO
the United States.
1t was the general impression about the
state, war and navy buildings that the loss
of the Maria Teresa would prevent any fur-
ther attempt to bring any OF the other YES
sells to this country.
1t is said at the navy department that pro,
vision was made by which the Teresa couid
have weathered any ordinary storm. "A
rough wooden deck had been, nailed over
her upper works Her hull was then sheathed
and heavy chains were wound around her, SO
as to hold her together. Although Tar from
seaworthy, all that was expected was that
the cruiser might be kept afoat unit! docked
in this country. She had been stripped OF
all guns and valuables, save the big turret
ll-inch guns, before starting, so that 1t is
believed there will be no loss on that ac-
count.
It is the opinion of the navy department
that the government, besides the value OF

WOMEN MAIL CARRIERS
Do Not Use the Regulation Stage and
the Picturesque Four-in-Hand


There are two women mail carriers in
Southern Berkshire who are doing salts
factory work and appear to enjoy the
business Miss Louise Marcome drives
the stage between Curtisville and Stock
bridge, making two trips a day, dis
tance of some four miles. As there is no
railroad station at Curtisville, she does
quite an express business and has a num-
ber of passengers. Miss Marcome is about
25 years old and has been driving some
four years. She is noted for her prompt
ness I'M making the trips and her close
attention to business. The other woman
stage driver has been on the road for about
six months. She is Miss Olive Oakes OF
Egremont, who carries the mail from North
Egremont to Great Darlington. She is
2l, and was learning the dressmaking busi-
ness when her father, who haa the con-
tract for the stage line, was taken sick,
and Miss Oakes took his place temporarily.
He grew worse and died two months ago.
She has continued to drive the stage. This
is hard trip for woman, the distance
being some six miles, and she makes two
trips day, and, as she lives midway be-
tween the postoffices, this gives her con-
siderable extra travel. These women do
not use the regulation stage that is seen
in pictures, but light wagons Their prn-
cipal cargo is the mail and light express
packages. The passengers do not number
over one or two trip, except on special
occasions.-Springtield Republican.

THEY ALLEGE FRAUD
CHINESE LOTTERY COMPANY
CLAIMS IT WAS BUNCoED
And That One of Its Agents Substitu-
ted a Bogus Winning Ticket,
Aided by Police Officers

Members Of the Ho Kai company, a Chi
nese lottery organization, doing business
at 81 Marchessault street, are greatly ex-
cited over the loss of $500, which one OF
their agents, Ung Quong OF 4SO Nigser
alley, claims to have won. The chinese
have not paid the money, however, and
they do not intend to do so If they can
avoid it. They claim that they were jobbed
and that Quong used his knowledge of the
workings of the drawings to work in a
bogus ticket on them. While they do not
assert so of their own knowledge, the Chi
nese are inclined to think that Police Off
GERS Ross Phillips and Ritch are RESPONSE
BILE for the success of the scheme.
According to the statements of the Chi
nese, Ung Quong sent Lo Tai, one OF his
assistants, with the duplicates of the lot
tery's tickets. to the shop on Marchessault
street last Wednesday night. These dupli-
Gates have to be in the hands of the mes
sengers of the lottery before the drawings
are made. in order to guard against fraud
The package of duplicates was handed
over to the Ho Kai managers and depos-
tied in box which was in an office in the
reaer of the store. This box was secured
by an ordinary lock and a Yale paddock.
Lo Tai waited until he learned how the
drawing had occurred and the instant he
gained this information he left the shop
Where he went the Chinese cannot say
but they claim that he must have visited
the place of his employer and enabled him
to mark the ticket so as to catch nine spots,
thereby winning $500 for his so cents. This
bogus and forged ticket was included In a
bunch of duplicate tickets which corre-
sponded to the batch originally left with
the company by Lo Tai. How the substi-
tuition of the bogus bunch of duplicates
which included the winning ticket was
made is the next question
The Chinese claim that in about ten
minutes after Lo Tai left the place Police
Officers Phillips and Ritch entered the
store at 311 Marchessault street. and Phil
lips proceeded to go through the trousers
pockets of All Man, the bookkeeper, and
take the keys away from him, in order
to get into the trunk. Two keys which
did not fit the lock were surrendered by
the officer without trial, so the Chinese
assert, but the third key was used to un-
lock the paddock. This was taken outside
the office and laid on the counter, and
then Phillips and Ritch excluded the Chi
nese from the back office, where the box
was located, and the better to hide their
actions, moved curtain over the opening
or window in front of the partition. ST
Fee, one of the proprietors of the place,
claims that he looked through a space not
covered by the curtain and there saw Phil
lips with the box opened and apparently
searching among the tickets. He did not
see the officer either deposit or remove any
bundle of lottery tickets. When the cffi-
GERS finished this inves stigation the re-
tired, but did not destroy the lottery tick
cts.
The story is denied entirely by the off,

The Last of a Famous Fleet

A solitary old sailing vessel, the last of
her feet, is tied up in the Erie basin, await.
ing a buyer. The final transactions Incl
dent to the winding up of business await
settlement at her owners office. When
these matters are attended to the old ship
sold and the firms name taken down from
over the office door on South street, where
it has stood unchanged for more than half
a century, the last tangible evidence of
an interesting epoch in American COM
merce will have passed out of existence.
The old sailing liner, now doomed to be-
come coal carrier or debased to such
other obscure exigency as her new owner
may choose, represents the best type of
the threemasted wooden vessel formerly in
service between this country and Europe,
and doing for the public just what the first
class iron steamships do now.-New York
