ROBERT BONNER DEAD.
The Millionaire Publisher Passes Away
in New York.


in New York.
NEW YORK, July 6-Robert Bon
ner, the millionaire publisher, and
famed throughout the world as a
lover and owner of the fastest trot-
ting horses money could buy, died
at his home tonight after long i'll
ness.
Robert Bonner, was born near
Londonderry, Ireland, April %, 1924.
At an early age he came to this
country and learned the printers
trade. In 1929 he entered the office
of the Hartford Courant, where he
gained the reputation of being the
most rapid compositor in the
country.
In 1874 he removed to New York
and in 1861 he bought the New York
Ledger, then an insignificant sheet.
During his life he has given large
ly to Princeton College and to num-
erous charities. To crafty his taste
for fast horses he owned several of
the most celebrated trotters in the
world, among them being the IA
NOUS Maud s. He always with.
drew these horses from the race
track.
During the later years of his life
he had been doing a general pub.
fishing business in New York, and
had been at the head of number OF
popular publications, which have
been the main source of his enOr
nous fortune.

MERE SPARKS.

1t is the liar who says that there is
no such thing as truth; the thief,
who declares that every man has his
price; and the debauchee who sneers
at the very idea of human purity.
The preacher who had a great con.
gregation Of hungry souls before
him, and spent the hour in frothy
and incousequential talk, missed an
opportunity which an angel might
cOvet.
n you desire TO 90 through the
world with your head up and with
out fear, the only proper policy is
never to do anything that is un-
becoming TO a man.
No man can preach a truth till he
has first lived IL.

HORRORS or DEVILS ISLAND.
to Which Capt. Dreytus Was
Submitted.

Submitted.
PARIS, July S.-LOuis Havet,
member OF the institute, who accom-
panied Nine. Dreyfu5 to Rennes,
sends the Figaro the following
account Of the lreitm ent to which
Dreyfus was subjected on the Isle
Du Diablo.
On the arrival of Dreyfus
Guians, in 1895, he was not disem
barked at once, but was left in the
bottom of the vessels hold, with Il
temperature of 40 degrees centigrade
(ll3 Fahrenheit), for four days.
About the end OF his imprison
ment. and when the 4saissement
bill was being discussed. he was
placed for month on bread and
water.
In 1896, when Col Piquart warned
Gen. Billot that Dreyfus was in no.
cent, the hut in which he lived was
surrounded by palisade. He could
no longer see the ocean between the
hut and the palisade, an interval
of only 40 c1ntimetres intercepting
the air and light. This lasted one
year. The prisoner had attacks of
sutfoca ion. The doctor insisted
that something be done, therefore
they raised the height of the hut.
1t is easy to see why Nine. Drey-
fus, in violation of the law, was not
allowed to join her husband. She
would have written to France, and
some one would have asked ques-
tions in the chamber. Dreyfus was
literally sutfOcating in this artificial
cellar. He had violent attacks OF
fever, and then was put in irons for
two months.
Havet says Dreyfus asked not to
be spoken about in the press, but
not believing in his right to be silent
addressed himself to the journal tC
which France owes the publication
of the inquiry of the court of casa
| ton

AN AGE OF FALSEHOUD.
Bishop Morrison Speaks Strongly ofPre-
Valent Evils.


ATLANTA, GA, july 9.-BishOp
Morrison spoke from the pulpit of
the First Methodist Church to-day
to the FreemasOns of Atlanta In
the course of his sermon, the Bishop
said:
at has seemed to me of late that
the present is an age of insin-
cerity, an age of falsehood. Thou
sands of men will not tell the truth
unless they know they can make
something by it. The moral decay
of the present age is due to this dis
regard for truth. Lies are put up in
packages, sent out in barrels and
hung up on hooks. Men are Justify
ing themselves with the fact that
their acts are common.
That emb aimed beef sent to
Cuba is no worse than we get to day.
/ believe that the large death list in
this country, which is daily grow
ing greater, is due directly to the
dishonest adulteratiOn of food which
goes in the homes of our country
The whole commercial world is
honeycombed with untruthfulness
and the inordinate love of money
which has taken hold of our people
is at the bottom of it.
There are men in Atlanta to-day
who have been running to money sc
long that, while wealth ia five times
as great a. formerly, their reputa
tion and their influence for good IL
the community is more than five
times as small as it was before

MANILA, July THE trial at Ca
bunatuan of the slayers of Gen. Luna,
the Filipino leader, who was assas-
sinated by the guard of Aguinaldo's
residence, is ended. The accused
were acquitted on the ground of self
defense. The testimony showed that
there was conspiracy upon the part
of Luna and other officers to kill
Aguinaldo and make Luna dictator.
Luna's death seems to have strength
ened Aguinaldo's leadership for the
time. Luna's supporters are now
outwardly loyal to Aguinaldo.

Charley Cook, CulOred, Shot While Re
sisting an Officer.
Charley Cook, colored. was shot
and dangerously wounded at Mt.
Pleasant last Sunday morning, while
resisting an officer. About 8 O'Clock
in the morning Deputy Sheriff Har-
der and Constables Ladd, Swami
and Wiltshire went out a short dis
tance from the town, where a crowd
of negroes had been in the habit OF
rendeZvousing on Sunday, in order
to break up crap game which they
supposed to be in progress at that
place. When near the place Officer
Harder came upon the negro Cook
who appeared to be acting as sem
tinel. The officer commanded the
negro to stop, whereupOn he placed
himself between the officer and some
white persons who chanced TO be
passing at the time, pulled his pis-
Uol and began firing. Officer Har
der could not return the fire without
endangering the lives of the other
persons, until the negro had fired
| three shots. He then pulled his pi5-
tnl aud began firing, and Constable
/ LaGd from a distance also sent a
shot after the negro. Cook was
struck three times, one shot taking
effect in the leg, another in the
/ thigh, and another entering the
back of his head and coming out
under the eye. The negro was
brought to Columbia, where hi'
wounds were dressed, and il is now
expected that he will recover.
When searched. a miniature mag
azihe was found upon Cooks person
a belt full of cartridges being strap
ped around his body, beneath hi
clothing.

TUsCUMBIA, ALA, July 9.-The
murder of Engineer Weatherford
seems about to be fastened upon his
30 year-old son John, who was ar
rested this evening and placed in
Jail. On the arrival of the blood
hounds from Chattanooga at 2
o'clock they were carried to the
scene of the crime, one of the dogs
being lifted to the side of the box
car where the murderer climbed to
shoot the sleeping man through the
coach window. The dogs took up
the trail at once, which they follow
ed for twelve or fifteen blocks in
circuitous direction, stopping at the
front gate of young WeatherfOrd's S
home. The gate and front door
were opened, and as soon as the
dogs entered they jumped upon the
bed and grabbed Weatherford' s
cuffs. Weatherford was arrested
later, charged with the crime. The
motive ascribed is that his father
had declined to further furnish him
with money, and being strongly ad'
dicted to gambling and drinking,
without funds and work, and being
the only heir to his fathers prop
erty, he murdered him to come into
possession of his life insurance and
| property.

Tho Worrying Habit.

A prime necessity Of our permanent
freedom from worrying is the possession
of the personal quality commonly known
as sand. If a man has not been endowed
with sand by nature, he must pick it up
for himself. Nobody is going to give
him any, but he can do this easier than
he thinks.
Most Of the things we worry over are
only bugbears that fade and disappear
upon the first attack. Herein lies the
first secret Of success-in attack-and
the great secret lies in persistence, in
keeping always at work. The man who
actually does this, wasting no time, will
find the first thing he knows that he's
stopped worrying, and he laughs a lit
tie as he says to himself that he's got
no time to worry, and the next thing he
knows he finds his sandbox is no longer
empty, he's actually. got some sand Of
his own, and then he is somebody and
begins to find some solid satisfaction In
life. New York Sun.

and o~rnamentation than do the shirt
waists of the past two summers, and have
tucks, lace and embroidery insertion and
even ruffles, although the plain shirt sleeve

fringed ends.
