KILLED BY HIS OWN PISTOL
Policeman Leary Mortally Injured While
Asleep on Two Chairs.

POllcemAn LeAry Mortaly lnJur0O "nllo
Asleep on Two Chairs.
Patroman Daniel Leary OF the Newark police
died at 7:45 o'clock yesterday morning in the
Newark City Hospital as a result OF wound
from his own pistol. He was on reserve duty
and went TO sleep shortly after l am. In two
chairs back Of the Judges desk in the court
room adjoining the police station. Just after
. o'clock Sergeant Connel heard an explosion
and rsn to see what caused 1t. He found
Leary staggering to his feet and the latter
said: I'm shot. Tom and I'm going
to die / guess" He was sent to the City Hos
pital in spite OF his protestatons that he wanted
to go home and see his wife and three children
before he died. DR.. Washington. the County
Physician. was acting as Police Surgeon and or
dered the removal hoping to save Leary's life
although the nature OF the wound was such as
to give few chances of recovery. The bullet
penetrated the right side Just behind the ribs
and perforated the bowels in five places. An
operation was performed but Leary grew
steadily worse up to the time OF his death. His
wife was not notified until after his death.
Leary was "a years old and was born In Ire
land. He went to Newark in 1888, and was
married in 1891. year after his appointment
upon the Police force.
Just how the accident occurred can never be
known. but tho theory is that in moving about
in the arm chair. Learys pistol was cooked by
contact with the chair. and snapped as 1t foil to
the fosr. 1t was found under the chair.

announcing that the cruiser New Orleans
had put to sea from Santo Domingo. but

"Dont's" From "What to Eat"


The March issue of What to Eat"
prints an address to general managers
and general passenger agents of high
class railroads embodied in a number of
very pertinent "don'ts.'
Among other things it says: Don't
run like Helenblazes for an hour until
you are ahead of time and then come to
a stop at a station and stand there till
the passengers begin to look out of the
windows to see if there's a wreck
ahead. Comfort in travelling comes
from that steadygoing pace that lulls
the senses and soothes one instead of eX-
citing and irritating him.
The passenger takes the sleeper to
sleep-to rest. Give him all the oppor-
tunity possible. He will be grateful-he
will remember 1.-THE will speak of it
to other prospective passengers, and
so it will pay.
The three most desirable things
about a passenger train are safety,
speed and comfort" To careful and
strict observance of all and many more
of what to Eats "don'ts" the c., NJ.
& st. p. Ry., for instance, owes its I'M
failing popularity with the travelling
public On it's Pioneer Limited train
between the Twin Cities and Chicago
(the only perfect train in the WORLD
the passenger obtains every possible
comfort.

Making White Lead.

The new method of manufacturing
white lead as described by NJ. Ribau,
an official of the department of the
Seine. by e!ectrolytic decomposition OBJ
tanned by currents. has attracted con-
sidera BILE attention, but its industrial
value is yet to be determined. In carry
ing out this plan, tubs of sandstone are
provided, in which is a mixture of car
Donate of soda and chlorate of soda in
solution; in this liquid thin sheets of
lead are immersed, being placed in a
vertical position, parallel with each
other and separated by a small interval
of space, and sheets in pairs for exam
pie. are united to the positive pole of an
electric source. while single sheets are
united to the positive pole. When the
current is turned on chlorate of lead is
produced, and this, on contact with the
carbonate of soda, becomes hydro-car-

tween the sheets of lead and made to

used to maintain by their agitation the
homogeneouSness of the bath. and to
scrape, as fast as it is produced, the
white lead adhering to the sheets of
lead, the white lead falling to the bot
tom of tubs, from which it is taken and
put through a titering process This
French process, however is likely to be
superseded by one started in Brooklyn,
in which a solution of ammonium nj

ducing two pounds of white lead, of
best quality and perfectly white, per

constant endeavors TO get out. In a
tank lighted above only. with no glass
side where the light can come ill., as for
instance, a reserve tank. the bmofsh will
swim round and round; in an exhibition
tank, with glass front. the blueish are
likely to be found with their noses to the

a continuation of the water they are in
and to promise freedom if they could
reach it,
There are number of bluefish in a tanl;

Alex Burnett Writes About the
Famous Night.
NEARLY FROZEN TO DEATH
Four Anaconda Boys Had Their Feet Sc
verely Frozen-One of Them Will
Have to Have Them
Amputated.
NEARLY FROZEN TO DEATH

Mrs A. W. Burnett of this city yes
terday received from her husband, who
is now in Dawson City, very interest
some interesting news about the Cas-
star stampede, where four Anaconda
boys were nearly frozen to death. Fol-
lowing is the letter:
: Dawson City, JAN 2S.-When Charles
Smith was writing his letter for the
Standard, he said that I was still keep
ing my restaurant. was keeping it at
that time, but my partner and myself
have sold out We have some very
good mining property in view and if
everything goes right, we will nail 1t
In few days and Immediately set to
work on it.
THE prospects for good winter are
very bright, and ! think there will be
more gold taken out this summer than
last, and there are some people who will
make some awful big strikes, as they
have really good property, which is very
scarce.
II and some other boys went down
the river a couple of weeks ago on a
stampede, the biggest one I guess ever
in the town. We left in the evening
and had an awful cold night. Several
people were nearly frozen to death be-
fore we reached Cassiar creek. 1t was
40 below zero when we got there. Four
of our fellows got their feet frozen,
and it Is probable that one of them will
have to have them amputated."
The following was published in
Dawson paper about the stampede:
The Big Stampede.
Twas at the hour of midnight
When the moon was hanging low,
The Northern light was flashing bright
On the mountains deep with snow.
That cautious word went through the
- town
And was whispered DER each bar
That a Dawson man got a two-ounce
pan
Way down on Cassiar.
Twas a stampede to Coal creek
And down to Cassiar,
And "Nigger" Jim was in the swim
And was the guiding star.
Twas stampede to Twelve mile;
Did you get in with the push?
With a whispered tip from cautious
lip &5
And a malamoot to mush.
The Eldorado kings were there
With Stanley mushing on:
And little Ramps, with Eagle lamps,
Saw the way the crowd had gone.
He harnessed all the dogs in town,
And got the push in trim;
And with a five-foot stride-he scorned
to ride,
Took after "Nigger" Jim.
Some said Coal creek was the place,
And some said Cassar,
And word went round that the richest
ground
Beat Eldorado far.
And all who had malamute,
And grub and grit and speed
At the dead of night, by the pale moon
light,
Went on the big stampede
