THRILLING
MELODRAMA
Enacted In Real Life At A
Little Town In
,Servia.
one DIED, ONE LIVED
A Reprieve Arrived At the
Last Moment For One
Of Two Partners
In Crime.

PRoKUPLIE, Servia, Jan "A scene
more dramatic than any writer of melo'
drama ever conceived was witnessed
here Saturday when woman and her
parsmour mounted the scaffold to pay
the penalty for the murder of her for.
mer husbandh, who thad been apriest.
The last words of consolation had
been said and the moose adjusted about
the neck of their man, who faced the
crowd stolidly. At that solemn mo-
ment, just as the trap was about to be
sprung, a mounted messenger olattered
up to the Jail yard waving reprieve.
At this the woman broke
down and, cried. Her Joy was
short lived, however, for the reprieve
proved to be only for the man.
When this fact was announced the
woman clung to her lover in frepzy.
But he, who had not changed counten-
ance during the thrilling drama, flung
her off and asked to be led away. He
refused even to bid her farewell.
The sheriff in broken voice then
ordered the woman to be placed on the
trap and she was hanged.

SHOCKING
CRIME
Domestic Troubles Cause
The Death Of Two
People.
CHILDREN LOCKED Up
While the Father Committed
The Awful Deed In
Presence Of
the Baby.

PAULDING, O., Jan. 2.-This city
and vicinity were startled yesterday
by one of the most shocking crimes
ever committed in the state. Charles
A. Brewer, ex-poster of Psulding, and
one of the city's best known men, shot
and killed his wife and then turned his
revolver upon himself, blowing his
brsibs out.
Domestic incompstibility is assigned
as the probable cause.
Those who entered the house found
the wife dead, and the husband in the
throes of death. A 48 caliber pistol in
the husband's g hands told the story. A
little tot, just beginning to walk, play
ed between the prostrate forms, while
tho other three children had been lock-
ed in room by the frepzied father be-
fore he committed the deed.

ALL SAFE BELOW.
For a While It Was Thought Ninety
Men We're Doomed.

CARLINvILLE, ILL. Jan. 2.-This
city was thrown into . state Of terrible
excitement this morning when at 9
o'clock the news spread like wild fire
that q conf1agration was raging in the
Carlinville coal mine and that 80 min
ers were imprisoned with small chances
of escape.
The scene at the mouth of the
shaft was indesoribable, among the
wives and mothers, sisters and sweet
hearts and friends of the apparently
doomed men.
After fighting the flames for an hour
they we're got under control and at 10
O'Clock two men were hoisted and re-
ported all safe below.
The tipple was entirely consumed.

ONE DAY NEARER
A Great Race To Determine Who
Shall Carry the Fast Mail.

CHICAGO. ILL.,, Jan. 1.-Two of the
fastest and most powerful locomotives
ever built will leave Chicago for Omaha
tonight, one over the Chicago and
Northwestern road, the other over the
Burlington, each pulling q train OF
cars corresponding in weight and num-
ber to the fast mail trains now in SER
vice between the two cities.
The 492-mile run will be a race from
start to finish, the prize to be gained
being the contract to carry the new
fast mails between Chicago and Omaha.
the emolumept being in the neighbor-
hood of 81, 900, 900 q year. The Burl-
ington has made the contract for IA
years, but is likely to lose If the North
western can make better time.
The running time is expected to be
about 10 hours and Is minutes, or about
q mile a minute. This reduces the
running time between Chicago and
Omaha one hour which goes to make
up the "a hours reduction between
New York and San Francisco with the
establishment of the new fast trans
continental mail service.
The results of the fast mails under
the new schedule across the continent
will be watched with intense interest,
as it is a distinct advance in the science
of railroading. It's success will not
mean any msterial gain in time be-
tween New York and Chicago, but
will have the effect of bringing San
Francisco and other cities on the Pa
cific coast, and incidentally the Phil
ippines, one day nearer New York, and
the east than they now are.

IMPORTANT DISPATCHES
Withheld BY the Department
Concerning the Situation
At Manila And
II0iIo.

! WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.-Advices of {
idisquieting character were received
ht the war department from Gen. Ott'
AtZZManila. Two dispatches were saii
20 have been received, one relating tt
ihe situation at Iloilo, the other con
serning conditions in aud around Ma
aila with particular reference to the
sttitude of the Filipino insurgents.
ALL that could be obtained about
sen.Otis's message concerning the sit
,ation at Iloilo Is that 1t said that
Zen. Miller had landed and was in con-
,ultation with the insurgents. This
eJrobably means that Miller landed
.ersonally, and that his troops landed
slso.
. Other dispatches from Gen. Otis con-
aimed the interesting Information tina
Aguinaldo had disappeared, and could
ot be found. Gen. Otis expressed
pncern over this occurrence.
From the tone of his message he is
tidently worried over the possibility
an uprising by the Filippinos army
i the vicinity of Manila. He said there
iAd been no disturbances.
The escape of Aguinaldo from Amer
an surveillance was apparently not
leasing to officials here, who think
ne insurgent chief may have gone out
inspire feeling among his follow
RS against the United States.
The failure to find Aguinaldo is en-
,arrassing also because of the refusal
3f the insurgents at Iloilo o surrender
that place without Aguinaldo's permis
'sion. If he could be located by Gen.
Dtis the latter would compel him to
say whether he would or would not
agree to instructive insurgent chief ut
Iloilo to allow Miller's forces to land
without opposition.
Aguinaldo was born on the 22d day
of March, 1869, at Cnvite Viejo, aud
of the little country town were able to
provide. His life was spent in business
up to his twenty-ffth year, when he
vas elected mayor of Cavite. On the
10th of August, 1896, the governor of
he province of Cavite reported to
Manila that everything was quiet in
.Cavite, and no insurgents to be found
anywhere. Aguinaldo, on his way
aome On the day after the 21st of Au-
:utt 1896, heard that a warrant had
seet issued for his own arrest on the
dharge of siding with the insurrection-
sts. Instead of going home, according
? Captain w. A. Harper. who writes
p h1s interview with Aguinaldo in
ta-per's Weekly, he gathered twenty
mis- frieads around him and waited
the arrival of the warrant. On
