At last his amen was said. The
rope was thrown over limb and his
body was pulled into mid.air A few

his soul was ushered into eternity.

was strictly observed.
The crime for which Embree sui
fered death was terrible and fena.
( ish one. Oa June II, Miss Willie
Dougherty, the IA year-old daughter
OF W. W. Dougherty, was riding
horseback along lonely road, going
to attend a Sunday School meeting
at Burton, a small country town OF
Howard county As she nsared an
unsettled portion Of the road, place
surrounded by dense underbrush OF
one side and large stack & cord
wood on the other, she met Frank
Embree, the black brute.
Seeing she was alone and knowing
her utter helplessness he caught her
horse by the bride and forciblY
dragging her from the saddle, hs
pulled her into the thicket and 10
peatedly assaulted her. Then, like
g brute weary of his prey, he lefI
her unconscious.
After regaining her senses shs
managed by All the exertion that her
weak frame could command u
mount her horse and slowly made
her way to her home, where she re
lated her awful experience to her
father.
Quickly summoning friends and
neighbors he organized posse and
then begun a man hunt for the blacl
fend, which never ended until I
message was received from the sher
if at Garnett, Kan, saying he had
the man wanted.

Great Crowds Gather in Trieste

MY health is very good, he said,
and, pointing to the hills, added: Il
think I shall get among them. "
Then you are not going into the
interior of Bohemia, to the springs"
the admiral was asked, and he shook
his head. The admiral had, in fact,
the bronzsd look of perfect health.
II am very careful about my diet,
Admiral Dewey said, land have
declined nearly all invitations to
banquets On that account"
Trieste went wild with excitement
over the arrival of Dewey, and from
the hour when the Austrian guns
crashed out the welcome to the man
who had wrested the Asiatic empire
from the Austrian emperor's royal
niece until sundown, a fotilla of
small boats circled around the
Olympia.
The wharves were crowded with
spectators, and even the green hills
cannot be seen because of the multi
tudes of people on them watching
the white war ship in the bay.
The local authorities have offered
the admiral every possible attention.
The Austrian Lloyd Steamship com.
pany offered to take his officers to
Venice for the pleasure of it.
Dewey is the supreme hero OF
Trieste, No one talks anything else.
Every time the launch comes ashore
from the Olympia a picturesque
crowd rushes to the landing place
in the hope of seeing the American
admiral.
Yesterday morning when the
American staff, the American consuls
, and congressman Foss of the naval
committee made an official visit to
the Olympia, Minister Harris said
: that he had come from Vienna &c
l greet Admiral Dewey on his way
: home in the name of his gratefu
nation.
Champagne was served. Harris
proposed the health Of Presiden
Mckinley.
When Dewey heard this he raised
his glass and said:
: "Good health to him. I hope h'
: will be our next president"
s Then, looking around at his guest
:. he added vigorously:
: II really do hope Mr.. McKinle.

unaccountable cause to him, he took a
header
He was stunned at first and was for
the space of few minutes unconscious.
Willing hands came to his relief and he
was conveyed home in wagon that was
summoned. An examination Of his in
juries disclosed the fact that he had
sprained one of the tendons Of his leg,
right around the knee. DR.. Eldridge
