Alliance, Sept ga report comes
from Newton Falls telling of the death
of John Carson of near that place from
the effects of being stung by bees. 1t
seems that Mr.. Carson desired to work
among his bees, and being fearful that
they might sting him he burned sui
phur, but this did not have the desired
effect In fact it only enraged the bees
and they swarmed about him by the
hundreds, stinging him hundreds Of
times about the head, and causing him
terrible agony. The unfortunate man
managed to walk to the house. where
he fell to the floor and soon expired

Auburn, N. Y, Sept. 26.-A terrible
collision occurred on the Auburn branch
of the New York Central this morning
in which three persons were killed and
six injured, one probably fatally. The
west bound passenger train ran into an
east bound freight at Wheeler's bridge,
one mile west of this city at about
o'clock. The dead are:
EMMETT LANCELOT, engineer of the
freight train.
]. G. CURRY, fireman of the freight.
TRAMP, name unknown.
Probably fatally injured, r. j. Frew,
baggage master of the passenger train.
Those injured are: S. j. Ludolph, of
Rochester; Thomas 'Dugan, passenger
engineer Byron Nellis, passenger fire
man. d. A. Martin, passenger con-
ductor and Charles Persons, trainman.
The freight train was behind time. The
conductor evidently tried to make the
station on the passengers time. He
had no orders to do so and the blame
falls upon him.

Why Renowned Generals Had Ma.

The features are developed by the
mind. A child that is reared amid
pleasant surroundings and whose mind
is filled with pleasant thoughts, will
have pleasing face. The shape Of
the nose and chin will depend entirely
upon the strength and character Of tho
mental faculties.
At 10 boys nose may be small and
turned up ut the end, at Is it may have
grown larger and be straight and at 25
it may be pronounced Roman. 1t all de-
ponds upon his mind.
The Romans had big noses with high
bridges because they were a steady
and determined race of people. Sturdi-
ness and determination will give man
Roman nose, no matter how little or
how snubby his proboscis may have
been when he was born. The Greeks
had straight, delicate, finely chiseled
noses because their tastes are artistic
and poetic You never saw a poet or
an artist with u Roman or snub nose,
did you?
On the other hand, it would be hard
to find great general who had not q
Roman nose. Get pictures Of Alexan.
der the Great, Napoleon, Wellington,
Washington or Grant and see If they
have not all got big, strong noses Of
the Romanesque type. Yet 1t is quite
safe to say that if we could have por-
traits Of all these personages, taken in
infancy, we would find their olfactory
organs little pudgy affairs, like those
, Of the common run Of babies. These
men were not great generals because
they had Roman noses; they had Ro-
man noses because they were great
generals.-San Francisco Bulletin.

Following close upon the declarations

Gompers, president of the American

editorial for the current number of the

Mr.. Gompers takes strong ground
against any antitrust legislation in any

the government is not capable of pre-
venting the legitimate development and
natural concentration of industry and
that all the propositions to do SO which
have come under his observation would
beyond doubt react with greater force
and injury upon the working people of

TRANsvAAL's ULTIMATUM.
British Troops Must Be Removed or War
VIII Begin.

LONDON, Oct. 1.-THE Transvaal ul-
timatum, which is signed by F. w.
Reitz, secretary of state, concludes
with the following four demands:
First-That all points of mutual diff
ference be regulated by friendly re-
course to arbitration or by whatever
amicable way may be agreed upon by
this government and her majesty's gov
ernment.
Second-That all troops on the bor-
ders of this republic shall be instantly
withdrawn.
Third-That all re-enforcements of
troops which have arrived in South
Africa since June l, 1899, shall be re-
moved from South Africa within rea-
sonable time, to be agreed upon with
this government, and with the mutual
assurance and guarantee on the part OF
this government that no attack upon or
hostilities against any portion of the
possessions of the British government
shall be made by this republic during
the further negotiations within a period
of time to be subsequently agreed upon
between the governments, and this gov
ernment will, on compliance Herewith,
be prepared to withdraw the armed
burghers of this republic from the bor-
ders.
Fourth That her majesty's troops
which are now on the high seas shall
not be landed in any part Of South

giving Great Britain SO hours in which
to return an answer and continuing:
at desires further to add that in the
unexpected event of an answer unsatis-
factory being received by it within the
interval, it will, with great regret, be
compelled to regard the action of her
majesty's government as formal dec
laration of war, and will not hold itself
responsible for the consequences thereof,
and that, in the event of any further
movement of troops occurring within
the aforementioned time, in nearer
direction to our borders, this govern
ment will be compelled to regard that
also as formal declaration of war;"
