.urity while storm of bullets may
be passing overhead. Nor will rifle
bullets penetrate an earthwork to any
distance. Bullets from Lee-Metford
rifle will penetrate further than those
from a Mauser, while those from a
Mauser will go further than those fired
from Martini. Shots from Maxims
Or other rapid-fre guns are similarly
ineffective against earthworks. The
only way in which soldiers can be dis
lodged from such position is by the
use of heavy artillery, and even in that
case the firing must be extremely ac-
curate, so that the shells will burst i'm
mediately above the trenches. This. of
course, requires not only extremely ac-
curate craftsmanship but the expendi-
ture of great quantity of ammunition.

The fear of assassination which pos

MONTGOMERY, Ala, June 29-George
Jones, Negro, died Tuesday from ex-
cessive JOY over being released from
prison. He was convicted of murder
several years ago, but the proof
showed he bore no i'll will against
the victim and the prisoner stoutly
maintained he did not know the
gun was loaded. His good record
and the attendant facts finally
brought pardon. On being released
the happy Negro hurried to his home
near Demopolis. Approaching the old
log hut, the unexpected conner was
greeted by mother, father and sisters,
who ran to meet him. The Joy was
too great, and the big, lusty man, for
whom no task had been too great,
swooned with emotion. expiring few
moments later in his mothers arms.

Figures furnished by the secretary of

year s,453, $50 acres were disposed of by
the government to settlers. The total
receipts from public lands during the
last fiscal year amounted to Sc ,277. .995.
The lands embraced in the II forest
reservations, which were suspended by
the act of June 4, 1897, have again be-
come available to settlement, thus add
ing 19,951, 800 acres embraced in the re-
serves previously created.
In addition to these lands the Pine
Mountain and Zacha Lake reserve in
California, the Prescott reserve in Ari-
zona, and the Pecos River reserve in
New Mexico have been opened to settle
ment. At the close of the year 80 for
est reservations, not including those of
the Afognac forest and the fish culture
reserve in Alaska, had been created by
executive proclamations.
The department of the interior has
fnaugurated forest reserve system for
graded force of officers in control of
the reserves. This system has been in
operation for short time, but good re-
suits have already been secured in
many sections. The reports received
indicate the system of patrol has not
only prevented destructive fires from
gaining headway, but has diminished
their number.

Motorman Griffith stopped his car
drink of water at a spring near by. He
had hardly left his car when the cleo
trio current for some reason as yet un-
explained was shut off. leaving the car
in darkness. Motorman Kirkland, with
his car, followed shortly afterward,
and, as the foremost car was in dark

to check the speed. The rear car
crashed into the other with terrific
force, almost telescoping it.
Mr.. Opsion was standing on the rea r
platform of the first car and received
the full force of the impact. Both of
his legs were cut off and his skull
crushed. He lived but short time.
Kirkland was badly mangled. his
head and body being crushed. He
lived about an hour.

was some time before proper medical
assistance could be rendered the in

ment prevailed. Many ladies and
children we're among the passengers
and their cries and shrieks were ap-

cars received some kind of an injury,
but those mentioned above are believed
to be all who are hurt in any way seri-

COAL INDUSTRY.
Statistics which show That United
states Will Soon Lead the
World in Production.

While Great Britain Is still the
largest coal producer Of the world, the
United States is close second, and II
the present rate of gain is continued
will soon become the leading coal pro-
ducing country of the world. The pro-
duction of the United Kingdom in 1897
was ZOE 100000 tons; that of the United
States, 179.O00,0O0 tons; Germany, 91,-
100000 tons; France, 30,0O0,O0o tons;
Belgium, 22,OOO,OOO tons; Austria Hun
gary, 100000 tons; Russia, nearly
10,000,000 tons; Australasia, nearly S.
0t0,00O tons; Japan, over 100000
tons; Canada, nearly 100000 tons;
and Spain, 100000 tons, while no other
duction.
The United States, however, has
gained much more rapidly than Great
Britain or indeed any of the important
coal-producing countries of the world,
its gain during the last Is years be-
ing over 70 per cent, and that of the
United Kingdom less than "a per cent.
The announcement just made by the
geological survey that the coal product
Vi thC oHltCa III 1870 was SlS,-
$4,000 short tons, against 226,2s7,OoO
for Great Britain, shows that the
United States is rapidly gaining upon
that country and will soon become the
leading coal-producing nation of the
world.
AS an exporter of coal, however, the
United States takes low rank in pro-
portion to its production and stands
fourth in the list. In 1897 the exporta-
tions of coal from the United Kingdom
were 4s,000,O00 tons, from Germany 49,
OOO,00o tons, from Belgium over 6,OO0,-
COO tons, and from the United States
little less than 100000 tons. Austral-
asia comes next to the United States
as coal-exporting country, with near
ly 3.C00,000 tons. while France exported
about 100000, Japan. 100000, and
Canada, about 1,250,00O tons.

ROMANCE BURIED IN A GRAVE.
AlfreG Alden. Descendant of John
and Priscilla, Dies in
Wisconsin.

In new-made grave in Oak Hill
cemetery, at GAINESVILLE, Wis.,, divided by
half continent from the wild New
England shore where nearly 300 years
ago a band of his exled forefathers
moored their bark, lies all that is NOR
tai of Alfred Alden. u direct descendant
in the seventh generation Of John and
Priscilla Alden, who, on that December
night in 1920, landed from the May
flower on Plymouth Rock.
Born in Claremont, n. H., and reared
in the puritanical atmosphere of his
forefathers, inheriting the hardihood
and love of pioneer life typical of that
pilgrim band, Alden at the age of 81
sought the freer life of the west. Final
ly he settled at GAINESVILLE, and with his
brother, who had preceded him to Wis
consin, engaged in the manufacture of
brick. Their yard was one of the few
then existing and was consequently
profitable. Many years ago it was sold,
and the two brothers retired from active
business life, since which time Alfred
has resided with his relatives. --vH
Alfred Alden never married nor was
he ever known to seek the society of the
other sex since his voluntary exile from
the home of his fortfathers. If romance
there was in his life it died with him.
There is locket, kept sacred by his
niece, which once contained, together
with the only portrait of himself known
to exist, the miniature likeness of a
young girl, who was known to have
been the sweetheart of his boyhood.
This locket he brought with him from
New England.

CAPT. DREYFUS LANDS.
He Was Conveyed From Quiboron to Brus
by Train. Where He Entered Lam
dau and Was Taken to Rennes.

RENNEs, France, July 2. Capt. Drey-
fus landed at Quiboron and was con-
veyed by train to Bruz, II kilometers
from Rennes. There he entered a lam
dau, accompanied by the chief of de-
tectives and of the prefect department,
and was driven to Rennes, where 25
gendarmes awaited his entrance into
the town. Ten of the gendarmes en-
tered a wagon and followed the car
riage. The rest followed on foot. The
party arrived at the prison without in
cidcnt. A large crowd assembled and
witnessed the arrival in silence and
without manifestation.
RENNEs, July 3.-Preceded by hi,
guards, Dreyfus entered the prison
Saturday morning, was formally con-
signed to the care of the governor and
was taken TO a cell on the second
story.
Though rain fell heavily all night,
the sun shone out brightly when Drey-
fus entered the prison.
The governor of the prison sent
Nine. Drcyfus the news of the arrival
of her husband, and she immediately
went to the governor and asked per-
mission to see the prisoner.
Leave being granted, the faithful
wife entered the prison almost unob-
served and was conducted to cell No.

ed husband and wife can better be

it was most touching.
Both Dreyfus and his wife were
clasped in each others arms, tears and
smiles intermingling with tender en-
dearments.
Up 20 noon Saturday there had been
no sign of public demonstration.
The prisoner appeared to be in good
health. He wore a blue suit, a gray
overcoat and soft felt hat. His hair is
turning gray and his beard is of red
dish color. He held himself very
erect.
RENNEs, July 3.-Mme. Dreyfus had

much better. He received her with
smiles instead of tears.
