KANSAS CRY, Mo-, July 27.-The
tragic scene which attended the death
of Corporal Leonard F. Hayes, Amer
ica's only traitor in the Philippines,
was witnessed by Sergeant George A..
Lamarsh, of Co. II, Twentieth Kansas
volunteers now IN this city.
Corporal Hayes, he says, became
enamored of Filipino beauty and de-
serting his comrades, was placed in
charge of a Filipino battery with the
rank OF lieutenant. He met his death
almost in the first engagement in which
he fought against his country. Speak
ing of this battle, Sergeant Lamarsh
said: eve had charged the Filipinos,
driving them back and killing and
wounding many. Among the wounded
left on the field we found Hayes. He
was recognized by several of the boys.
One of the soldiers of the Second Ore
gon drove his bayonet through the
body of the wounded traitor and lifted
him above his head and held him there
while the soldiers shot him. The body
was thrown into trench and buried
with several dead Filipinos. Wewould
have treated him worse if we had
known how"
Hayes was corporal in Co. l, First
Colorado volunteers.

An Enterprising Partridge.

A report of peculiar occurrence in
bird life reaches the city through reli-
able parties. Mr.. Ralph Wise lives
seven miles from Walkers, his post
office being. Money, S. c. 1t was on
Misplace that the occurrence is reported.
Several weeks ago one OF his hens made
a nest back Of the barn and laid several
eggs therein. The nest was discovered
by partridgcs, which proceeded to lay
a number of eggs in the same place.
A cur cn the place also found the nest
and sucked all the eggs. Upon dis
covering her loss the hen moved her
nest some distance and laid two more
eggs, and then began to set upon then.
The old partridge also decided to set
and proceeded to drive the hen away.
The feud between the feathered crea-
lures continued for a number OF days,
but finally ended by the plucky little
game bird winning out and obtaining
sole possession of the nest. Days
passed and after the required number
had passed two little chickens hatched
out. The partridge Immediately car
ried them to the woods, but not far
from the house. Ever since their adj
vent into the world the partridge has
continued to care for the chickens. and
now, although the chicks are nearly as
large as she is, can be seen constantly
with them. Upon the approach OF Il
stranger partridge and chicks dodge
away in the underbrush, but anyone
wishing to the see strange sight has
little trouble in finding the trio.--Ncrs

ATLANTA, Ca, July 28.-A special to
the Journal from Jackson, Ga, says:
The three Mormon elders who were
taken away from the home OF William
Cunnard, at Newton Factory, in Jasper
County, on Wednesday night escaped
from the mob while crossing creek III
that county and are now safe near
Jackson. They are suffering from
many bruises and injuries sustained IN
a fight with their captors. They swan
down the creek, hotly pursued by the
mob, finally escaping, making their
way through tie country to the home
of friends. From there they sent for
some clothes. They tell a thrilling
story of their experience. 1t is not
thought here that the mob intended to
lynch the Mormons, but was bent on
escorting them out of the country. Mrs.
Cunnard, portion of whose jaw was
shot away in the fight with the mob
and her husband, is badly wounded.

The Worlds Financial Centre.

The United States is already the
largest of the Christian nations OF the
world i'll point of population except
Russia. 1t is far ahead OF Russia and
every other country, including Eng
land, in wealth. 1t is growing faster
than Russia in population. and Will
soon ovcrtal1c that country. I'm ranl-
featuring, it has led England, Which
previously held the worlds primacy i'll
this important respect, for the past
twenty years. It's material resources
are greater than are those OF any other
country. The money market OF New
York has been more abundantly sup
piled than that of London i'll the past
six months, Notwithstanding the lm-
mense expansion which has taken place
in this country in general business III
that time. Rates for money have re-
mained stcadicr in New York than in
London. These are !, few OF the rca-
sons why some of the great monetary
transactions which formerly would
have been negotiated in London now
take place in this country. The star
of empire, Which has already carried
the centre of the worlds wealth and
moral influence to this side of the
Atlantic, is swinging the centre OF the
worlds financial gravity also to the

This is Bad News.

NEwroET News. Va. July 30
There are thirty cases OF what is be-
lievea to be genuine yellow fever at
the Nationa Soldiers Home, near
Hampton, and three deaths from the
disease were reported to-day. There
were several other deaths at the insti-
tuition yesterday. but Ii cannot be
stated tonight that all of them were
caused by yellow fever. Newport
News and Hampton will quarantine
against the Soldiers Home. The Gov
crnment authorities at Old Point have
already adopted this step, and no street
cars are allowed to enter the reserva-
ton. Quarantine Officer Hobson, OF
this port, went to the Soldiers Home
tonight and verified the statement
that there. are now thirty cases OF the
disease at the Home, and that there were
three deaths from the malady to-day.
while no one outside of the Soldiers
Home knew anything about the cxis-
tence of the yellow fever until to-day,
it is said that the disease made its ap-
pearance three days ago. The most
rigid quarantine regulations will be
enforced to prevent the spread of the
malady.
The news has created great excite
ment in Newport News, Old Point
and Hampton, and the most vigorous
measures were resorted to prevent its
spread. There are 1000 veterans at
Home, and several large excursion
parties went through it last week.
