Neal S Penance.

1t is reported from Columbia
that Col. w. \. Neal, former
superintendent of the State penis
tentiary is prepared to restore to
the State the amount he has
distracted from its Golfers by
means Of the "shortage in ac-
count system. The restoration,
however, will be made only on
condition that the State agrees
not to prosecute the offender for
his misdolngs.
1t is to be hoped that the State
officials will make a very positive
and emphatic refusal TO COM
promise with Neal. The man is
guilty of gross malfeasance in of
flee and should be prosecuted
vigorously in an effort to secure
for him the heaviest punishment
the law provides. The amount
of his shortage is considerable and
the State should recover it if
possible, but it would be far bet
ter to lose the sum of Neals
pccuIatlons many times over than
to make n compromise with his
criminality. Moreover the crimi-
nal prosecution will not prevent
recovery of the States money by
civil process. Neal should be
forced to repay the amount he has
taken from the State and should
be punished besides. 1t is i'm.
portant that IN example should be
made of these easy conscicnccd
folks who rob the State and seek
easy abeolution. The plea OF
"error in housekeeping" Is put
forward with a jaunty air and Is
often accepted with apologies fol
unjust suspicious. Neal hopes
that such Il condition may obtain
in his case and that he may gc
free and perhaps mount high in
the States councils in the future.

GEN. MILES WINS.
Scores n Victory Over Ex-Secretary
of War AIger.

WASHINGTON, Aug n.-Secretary
Root acted in a role of peacemaker, and
as a result everybody at the war depart
ment is pleased with everybody else. The
DELIGHTFULLY."- harmonious condition of af-
fairs prevailing ia department circles was
brought about by the secretary's an
n0uncement that the order respecting the
status of the inspector generals Office
would be so modified that it would be sat
isfactory to everybody concerned. Now
Gen. Miles is pleased, Gen. Breckenridge
smiles and Adjt Gen. Corbin is gratifed.
The only man who seems to be a little
weary is the secretary himself who, for
nearly two hours today, listened to a
learned discussion by Gen. Miles, of the
reasons why he should have control of
the inspector generals department equal
ly with the secretary of war, and why
he should receive reports from the artil-
lery and cavalry schools, as heretofore.
iron the conclusion of this conference
the secretary listened very carefully to
Gen. Breckenridge, who is satisfied to re-
main under the control Of Gen. Miles,
and to Gen. Corbin, and the order as is
sued will differ but little from that under
which the inspector generals department
has been conducted in the past. Thus
Cen Miles has secured a victory over
former Secretary Alger. and Secret ~,
Root has temporarily, at least, restored
harmony.

DEATH FROM LOCKJAw.
Scratch on the Shoulder Fatal for n
Child of Ten.

Florence Gethel Gibbons, aged 10 years
the only child of Mr.. and Mrs. B. c. Glib
bons, residing at 1916 Twenty fourth ave
nue. northeast, Minneapolis died Thurs
day night at the family home of lock-
jaw, disease that has been unusually
prevalent and almost invariably fatal
this summer She passed away almost
without warning, and even now it is
not absolutely certain just what was pri-
marily responsible for her sad death.
The only injury to the little girl that
can be recalled was received at Mime
haha Falls about two weeks ago. The
members of the family were there for an
outing, and in some way Florence re-
ceived very slight scratch on her Shout
der. The first symptoms appeared Tues
day. Mr.. Gibbons was preparing to at
tend the picnic of the Ohio association
at Minnetonka, when his little daughter
complained of soreness in her Jaws. Even
then the scratch of a week before was
hardly recalled. Doctors were summoned
and Drs. Kelsey and Macdonald. who re-
sponded, announced that she was suffer-
ing from lOckjaw. From that time on
her condition grew rapidly worse until
death resulted.

MAY STRIKE FLORIDA.
Hurricane Is Rapidly Approaching
Nassau, Bahama Islands,

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-THE West IN
dian hurricane tonight is rapidly ap-
preaching Nassau, Bahama islands,
where the barometer has fallen consid-
erabIy since morning and the wind had
increased to a velocity of thirty-six miles
an hour at $40 o'clock this afternoon.
Rain had been falling all day. While
there is still possibility that the s$orm
may curve out to sea, the officials of the
weather bureau now express the opinion
that it will reach the coast of Florida.
and that its influence there may begin to
be felt by tomorrow morning. Hurricane
warnings have been sent out over the
state by telegraph and telephone and
every measure taken to put the inhab-
1tants on their guard.
The maps on file in the weather bureau
show the course which has been followed
by the August hurricanes for the last
twenty-one years, but there appears to
be very little consistency in the direc-
ton which they have taken
The storm is now travelling much slow
er than during the earlier period of its
existence, the total distance covered
having been about 1900 miles. It's CEN
ter now appears to be a little southeast
of Nassau.
A report received by the signal office
today from Maj. Glassford, stationed at
San Juan, Porto Rico, states that the
telegraph wires In the island are down
and that the officers have suffered greatly
fro1sa the storm. Considerable money
will be required to restore them to their
former condition.
Weather bureau officials are surprised
to hear that the town of Ponce was not
warned of the approach of the storm, as
stated in press dispatches from that city
The capital San Juan, is the distributing
point for the islands of Porto Rico, and
prompt notification of the approaching
hurricane was given to the weather bu-
reau official there.
