In spite of the fact that the at
torneys fer the defense have an al
fidavit from Mrs. John Greenhaw
declaring that her husband was at
home during the whole of the night
of the hanging, it is not believed
Mrs. Greenhaw will be put on the
stand. If she does go on the stand
the state has sensation ~ its
sleeve that will make interesting
reading.
Mrs. Greenhaw has been here
since Sunday and has had several
conferences with her husband. If
the affidavit made by her at Kauf-

DAMAGE az srORM.

After drouth of more than two months
Galveston has come IN for one of the
worst rain storms that has visited this
section in a considerable while. From 1
o'clock yesterday to the same hour today
there was practically no let up to the rain.
At noon today the records at the office OF
the United States weather bureau showed
a rainfall Of 2.92 inches. Two and one
half inches OF water in twenty-four hours
is an excessive rain.
A very high wind accompanied the rain
The weather bureau records show mean
velocity of thirty-slX miles an hour. Az
2: 80 o'clock last night the wind reached
a velocity OF forty miles, but that rate was
not maintained long.
The gulf was on a rampage last night
and kept up its pranks well Today. The
Galveston City railway managed to run
its cars around by the beach last night,
but &ae service was rellnquished TINS
morning until II o'clock. when Superin-
tendent Travis started them over the
trestle again. At the foot Of fremont
street section of the wooden bulkheads
put in by the railway company was
washed away and the sand beyond them
melted like sugar before the breakers
Track men were put to work placing bags
of sand there as a protection. At the en-
trance to the Pagoda bath house another
section of bulkheads had been carried
away. and bags of sand were put there as
in the other case.
The midway was sight to behold this
morning. The houses thrown up along
the beach are not very we'll constructed
and the wind drove rain into them and
through them in perfect gusts. There was
no attempt to do business and all the
places looked abandoned.
The Alice Of Wonderland specialists
and others were walking around clad in
bathing suits and glad smile. They APP
peared to enjoy the novelty The man
who keeps sea shells and marine wonders
for sale had moved his house across the
street railway tracks. At the Pagoda the
life saving planks and other paraphernalia
were all washed away, but no other dam
age was done
The waves came very near claiming an
other victim last night. Between ana I
o'clock when the breakers We're rolling in
tho highest a Greek named George Davis
deliberately jumped overheard from the
west end of the Pagoda. He did the act
on a wager and came within an ace OF for
fsttina his life The Pagoda was crowded
with visitors at the time and many people
saw him make the jump. II was seen In a
moment that Davis stood no chance Tor
his life lighting the heavy breakers. He
no sooner struck the water than the fore
man and life saver. Claude Pond, who was
al the Pagoda at the time, went 10 ms

body and he YVES pulled to a place OF

The Exhibition Of War Pictures.

The exhibition at the Opera House
Saturday, Monday and Tuesday ev-
enings. of Edison's Moving War pic
lures was above the average shows
of its kind and large houses enjoyed
1t each evening. The stereopticon
views were good but the moving war
pictures were better. The destruc-
ton of Cervera's fleet, the Bleaching
and burning OF the Spanish cruiser
Viscaya, the Spanish bull fight, the
college boat race between Oxford and
Cambridge on the Thames, were all
beautiful pictures. The scenes In
which horses figured seemed to be
preferred. Ro%osevelt's Rough Riders
and their trained horses and the
charge of the 18th Hussars and Lam
GERS was to our mind the finest shown.
Lifelike pictures of President Nc
Kinley, Bryan, Dewey, Shafter and
Others, were greeted with applause.
On the whole the exhibition was the
most creditable OF its kind that ever
came to Lewistown.

A DARK PICTURE.

Dawn About the Situation in the Philip

II appears that tho truth about the
situation is told in a dispatch Of the
Washington correspondent Of the Phila.
delphia Times aud evidently inspired by
General Miles, the correspondent yir-
tually SAYS %, In which We read that
General Otis, with 10000 men, be-
gan an aggressive warfare on February
S, near Manila. drove the insurgents
many miles into the interior, and finally
returned 20 Manila on June 10, with
his forces depleted n,nd his army dis

list Of sick soldiers and thosc dying from

oept approximately. Upwards Of 5000
men have been disabled by disease and
about 500 have died oi disease.
Thus il appears that General otis

this is no anti-imperialist, neither is the
paper in which he writes. He criticises
the administration not for embarking
in a war Of conquest, but for not send
ing a sufficient force TO the Philippines

General King, inyalidcd home from
the Philippines, takes a very gloomy
view, perhaps superinduced, in meas
ure, by his own poor health:
"The situation, he says, "ismost Sc
rions. The people Of those islands will
keep up a guerrilla warfare and there
is no telling when the hOstilities viii

of this every day.
'The volunteers who have fought in
