feel the effects OF the gubernatorial canvass

CENTENARIANS IN SPAIN.
The Percentage Is Very Large I'm
the Southern Provinces and
- Steadily Increasing.

Would you,l like to live to the age of
Methuselah? Then,s according to tho
latest authority on the subject OF
longevity, you should spend the re-
mainder of your days in the south OF
Spain.
According to statistics which have
just been published in Madrid, Spain i;
wonderfully rich in centenariars. The
compiler, indeed, estimates that there
are % centenarians to every i,Gc0, COS
inhabitants. Moreover, this proportion
has been constantly increasing dur::iw
the last half century. In 1857 there
were IL centenarians to every 1,CG0,CG0;
in 1867 there were 1897, and in 1877 the
number rose as high as 29.s1. For a
few years after 1877 the proportion
was not as great as usual, but since 1885
it has recovered almost all of it's lost
ground.
Centenarians thrive better in some
parts of the country than in others. In
Andalusiu there are more than any
where else. In Malaga the proportion
is something like 100 to every 1,OOO, co..
of inhabitants. On the other hand,
there is not Il single centenarian in the
provinces of Soria, Alava and TorIlel.
broadly speaking, it may be said that
centenarians flourish best in the coun-
try south of the Sierra Morena, the pro-
portion there being approximately
from so to GO to every 100000 of in
habitants. In the north, on the con-
trary, 1T is very rare, nay, almost impos-
sible, to find single centenarian.

The trial of MAMMALIAN ". Faik. who

The hearing was discontinued for an hour
or more after the recess for the pUrpo-e
OF drawing jury in the Strather case. 80
that the testimony OF only tao witnesses
was taken during the day. The trial will
be continued and concluded this morning.
The fact that the complaining witness
is pretty girl, yet n her teens, attracted
an unusually large crowd CT curiosity
seekers to the hearing. These, however.
suffered disappointment. The chief 1it-
ness, Miss Hattie Minnie Dawson tod the
story OF the alleged crime OF the offend
ant in = modest, straightforward manner,
and Justice Cole, early during the hearing,
issued an order that everyone except those
interested in the trial should b. excluded
from the courtroom.
The crime with which Faik is charged
is alleged to have been committed during
the last days OF the year 1897 and the first
Of 1895 Shortly after he was given a
preliminary hearing in tEe 10 ice Curt
and pleaded not guilty. At that hearing
Miss Dawson, then only few moa:hs
over sixteen years Of age. was ca led 20
testify. she proved to BE- a hostile Wit
ness so far as stating anything tending to
incriminatc the defendant while VIKING
TO confess the part she had tzken in the
alleged crime.
On account OF her aga an appeal was
made to Judge Kinbali to have Miss Dayi-
son sent to the House OF the Good Sh p
herd during her minority. This request
was granted, and she has been an inmate
of that institution since.
Her testimony yesterday was 4 surprise
TO all who heard her testify in the Police
Court more than a year ago. She admitted
frankly that her statement al the prelim-
mary hearing was not wholly true and said
that she was unduly influenced by The de-
PENDANT 10 commit the errors she did.
The story of the alleged crime as re-
lated by Assistant District Attorney Joseph
Shillington in his opening statement TO
the jury and corroborated by The evidence
of Miss Dawson and her mother. is sub
stantially as follows: Some time during
the summer of 1897 Miss Dawson met Faik
at a school excursion to River View. 4
short while afterward he went to her house
and asked her TO go TO New York with
him. He, parents became aware OF the
acquaintance Of their daughter and FaIk
and TO avoid further meetings between
them they sent their daughter 10 Mount
St. Agnes Academy in Baltimore. She re-
turned for the Christmas holidays on De-
ceinber p, 1897, and saw Falk the same
day. On December 80 they went to house
in Indiana Avenue and remained there
that night. On the following evening Falll
