SERIOUS CUTTING ARRAY.
Mike Burma and william Cummick Fight
About Woman.

About Woman.
A serious cutting ARRAY occurred in
cabin at the east end of Mercury
street at about l o'clock this morning.
Two Austrians. whose names were
booked at the police station as Mike
Burma and William Cummick, were the
principals and both We're pretty badly
hacked up, though Cummick seems to
have had much the worse of the en-
counter. What the different facts are
it is hard to determine. as several diff
ferent stories are told, but of one thing
there appears to be no doubt, that is,
that the trouble was about u woman.
Cummick states that the woman in
the case washed for him and he went
to her cabin for his clothes, He opened
the door and walked in, or started to,
and was attacked without warning by
Burma, who was inside, and who struck
him with bottle and then drew a.
knife and proceeded to carve. Asked
why Burma assaulted him, Cummick
said he thought it was because Burma
was jealous About the, truth of this
statement there appears to be no doubt
but there is considerable as regards the
other part of the story.
Persons who were in the vicinity
stated to the police that Cursmick was
in the cabin with the woman and
Burma came and climbed in window
and Immediately commenced hacking
Cummick with a knife. When the at
tention of the police was attracted,
officers McNally, Bowling and Sulli-
van went to the cabin and found Cum
mick badly cut up. A bed on which he
was said to have been lying was liter
ally saturated with blood. Officers
Bowling and Sullivan took Cummick to
the city Jail and Officer McNally went
searching for Burma who had disap-
peared. He found his man hidden in
a cabin in the old diggings in the south
eastern part of town.

Fads in YehicIeS.

From the Pttsburg Dispatch
1t is difficult to imagine what the
streets Of Gotham will look like after
another year of this automobile craze.
Fads in vehicles are coming in view
every day and after a time Fifth ave-
nue. may offer a continuous procession
OF freaks in wheels and colors, just as
1t does with pedestrians. Two new au-
tomoblles We're seen to-day. One, the
newest kind from Paris, with real Pa
risian on the box, was quite like the
ordinary swell carriage. 1t has seats
for six persons, two seats inside and
one outside. The carriage has no dash
board, and the seats are close to the
ground, with an ordinary foot board in
front. The color is beautiful rich red
and the furnishings are most luxurious.
Another automobile that attracted at
tention was a two-seated cart. A young
man and pretty young woman were
on the front seat, while the rear was
occupied by two footmen.

TWO SMALL FIRES.
Three Hundred Dollar Loss Done to a
Caudy store.

thos hundred Dollar Loss Done to a
Caudy store.
Two small fires engaged the atten
ton of the fire department last even
ing. About 9 o'clock an alarm called
the department to the little candy and
fruit store between Mercury and Ga
lena streets, on Arizona, run by Olaf
Beilland. Mr.. Beilland started a fire
IN back room and then went into the
front part of the store to wait on a
customer. AS he finished, he glanced
back and was astounded to see the
whole rear end of the building in
flames An alarm from box was sent
in quick time, but the flames had
gained such Roadway that the whole
Interior was pretty thoroughly Quilted
before they could be subdued The loss
will amount to about $500, with insur-
ance of $3.50. Mr.. Beilland thinks he
must have dropped the match he used
to start the fire into some combustibles
or else that the stove was the cause of
the fire.
At o'clock an alarm came in from

DIED SUDDENLY.
Captain Joseph Buzzo Passes Away From
an Attack of Asthma.


an Attack of Asthma.
Captain Joseph Buzzo, the aged
brother of Superintendent Buzzo of the
Alice mine, died very suddenly at his
home in Walkerville last night about
10:S0 o'clock from an acute attack of
asthma. Captain Buzzo, who was en-
ployed at the mine under his brother,
worked yesterday and was in his usual
health. In the evening he went
home and ate very hearty dinner sat
around for an hour or two and went
to bed. About 8 o'clock an attack of
asthma came on and as it seemed I'M
usually severe, he awakened a gentle
man who roomed at his house and
asked to go after the town druggist,
who came and gave him some medicine
to relieve him, but it did not appear to
have any effect, and he continued to
man commenced to feel worried and
sent for Superintendent Buzzo and the
other members of the family. On OBJ
serving his serious condition they at
once summoned DR.. MacNevin, but the
old gentleman expired before the ply
sician arrived, after being sick about
an hour and a half. He was conscious
to the last and calmly gave directions
concerning the disposition of his affairs.
Captain Buzzo was so years of age
and Widower. Of his own family, he
leaves a daughter, who is at Wilkes
barre, Pa, and a son in Chicago. He
had lived at Walkerville many years
and enjoyed the respect and esteem of
all who knew him.

In the Mill Cities.

The conditions of life among the mill
workers in. New England cities is the
subject of a striking series of articles to
begin in next Sundays Boston Journal.
These conditions furnish topics for dis
cussion frequently at times OF strikes,
when the problem Of southern competi-
tion comes up, and, In general, by the
social reformers. The Boston Sunday
Journal, in order to Investigate the sub
ject in practical way, sent Mr.. j. O..
Pagan, a conservative man and strong
writer, to live among the people as one
of them for number of weeks. These
articles are the fruits of his experiences
there. The Boston Journal has again
taken the lead in New England by the
use of halftOne Illustrations In its daily
editions, method Of illustrations which,
by its direct reproduction of the photo
graph, ensures accuracy and a more
finished and brilliant picture than can be
had by other processes. The use of
illustration In daily papers has
been dependent upon the possibility of
printing them satisfactorily on a fast
press. This problem the
Journal has apparently satisfactorily
solved.

THE Wool MARKET.

The remarkable rise in wool prices is
the marvel of the market In 1895 and
1896 the farmers received from 10 to IL
cents per pound; today the price is
around Il cents. Not since 1879 has any
such Jump In price taken place, and it is
growers are in a position to profit by
it. While astonishment is expressed on
every hand at the big increase, the ex-
PLANTATION Is not far to seek. 1t is only
natural that the present unprecedented
prosperity of the country as whole
should make an increased demand for all
kinds of wooden goods. Manufacturers
have been turning out the goods as
rapidly as they could and must have the
raw material to feed their spindles.
With all the factories running to meet
the demand for the finised product, some
body must furnish the raw material, and
the strong demand therefore has raised
the price. The old law of supply and
demand. \ contrbutory cause may also
be found in the decreasing use Of shoddv
in the manufacture of woolens. The
whole wool is taking its place rapidly,
and the time seems not far distant when
the tailor and clothing merchant will not
be treated with suspicion when he an
nounces his goods as sail WOOL
A cheering point about the rise is the
declaration of experts that the price of
the raw material will not necessarily
cause all clothing to go up as well.
Some of the finer and more fashionable
grades may see rise, bur 1t is apt to be
arbitrary. They argue that the wool can
rise as high as 40 per cent, without
making any perceptible difference in
clothing prices, for the reason that the
principal value in a suit of clothes is the
tailoring and not the mate rial.
There appears to be no reason why
present prices will not continue until the
next clip. Everything points that way
Present prices are not artiicial-specula-
tive-but natural. 1t is said that the
Australian clip is apt to be small this

"Tlhe Laurea.'


On the eve of her hundredth anniver-
sary it is especially fitting that resume
of the history of Middlebury college,
the administration of each of her presi-
dents and sketches of her famous grad
yates should form a part of the college
annual issued by the junior class-the
century class in this instance. The pres
ent senior class of the college, or, to be
more exact, editors chosen therefrom,
last year prepared such an annual and
the book came out during the summer
Just past. 1t bears the title of "The
Laurea," the editors considering the
distinctive features which mark its con-
tents of sufficient importance to Justify
the use Of title other thar that of THE
Kaleidoscope"-the name heretofore
given to the ANNALS. The book is
handsomely printed and bound, with
numerous photo-engravings and the
usual original pen and ink sketches
which characterize college ANNALS.
But the feature which will make it
especially valuable in the eyes of grad
yates, former students and friends of
the college is the fine halftone portraits
of all the presidents since The founding
of the institution, together with a short
sketch of the administration of each.
The portraits are printed in brown ink,
each filling page, while from one TO
three pages of printed matter Is devoted
to the principal events marking the
term.in office of each of the presidents
A history of the origin of the college is
sv,x "A al, ~
commemorative first ever held in
Vermont. Another feature of 1.-The
Laurea" which will appeal especially to
to the younger generations of graduates
is the portraits and biographical sketches
of famous alumni. An added interest Is
given to the sketches from the circum-
stance of their being written by other
graduates no less famous than the sub
jects. Thus, DR.. Byron Sunderland,
IS, writes of John G. SAKE, 80; Hon. f.
j. Phelps, 40, of his classmate, DR..
Henry Norman Hudson; DR.. James ID.
Butler, SO, of Hon. f. j. Phelps. Por-
traits and sketches Of the oldest living
graduates appear. A singular circum-
stance may be noted in this connection
one that adds value to this feature. Both
DR.. Sawyer and Hon. Daniel Roberts,
the alumni alluded to. have passed away
since the book was issued. Photo-en-
cravings Of the board of trustees and
faculty, with paragraph biography of
each, rounds out that portion of "The
Lourea" which will make it of permanent
value. The half of the book devoted to
the undergraduates and their societies
the college annual features-is gotten up
with exceptional taste from an artistic
standpoint. The subject matter is much
the same as that which appears in the
ANNALS of other colleges. An account
is given of the Roman play presented in
May, and also description of the new
library building as it will appear when
completed. 1.-The Laurea" is on sale at
the low price of Sl.50, and orders may
be sent to A. f. Batchelder or F. H.
Bryant, the business managers.
