EVIL DOERS TRAPPED.
They Are All Anxious to Hear from the
 Woman They Love.

From the Indianapolis News: It is queer what risks some men will take to get Il letter from a woman they love-" said John Edmunds of the gen. eral delivery department of the post office. Criminals who can be found in no other way are often arrested when they call for mail at the general de- livery window. Generally, the men call for letters written by some wom- an. Along close to the holidays last year q pinkerton detective came to the office and waited for three days and nights for q man wanted in the East, who was supposed to be in this city. The detective knew that before the murder he WAS accused of committing the man had corresponded with a wom- an in the East. The detective had been waiting three days, when he received word to go to Columbus, Ohio, as there was letter at that office for the man. He went, and had not been there long when the man made his appearance. The detective arrested him at once and proceeded to Cleveland where the prisoner was tried and sentenced to death. Another instance was where not long ago the authorities were look ing for man accused of committing some big crime and had no clew at all as to where he was; so every office in the country was sent word to look out tor letter for that man. Some time after one came to our office and we at once notified the authorities. A detee- tive "ame on immediately, and when the man asked for his mail he was at once arrested"

A Thrilling Experience with an Eagle

A Thrilling Experience with an Eagle
 Earl Humnel, a 13-year-old boy had most thrilling experience with a great eagle on the mountain near Port Clinton, Pa. While in the woods near his home, the lad was suddenly and unexpectedly attacked by the huge bird It first attempted to strike or alight on his head. Young Hummel coolly turned on the bird and struck 1t on the neck with his rife. It flew to the top of a tree near by. He then raised his rife to shoot, when the eagle attacked him again, sinking his talons Into the flesh of his body, but the It. tle fellow kept cool and again fought It off, and raising his rife, brought town the bird, sending a bullet through It's head. The eagle measured forty SIX inches from tip to tip of wings.

qhe Progress of siber,a

The Russian government IS, says Engineering, with great energy and foresight, pursuing it's work in various directions, for the purpose of assist ing the progress of Siberia. The fact that Siberia will in all probability cease to be the dreaded home of eriIn- inals is cniy one link in this chain only one of many efforts for introduc- ing European culture into the vast possessions of the czar in Northern and Central Asia. Siberia has hitherto known nothing. or in any case very little, of customs and tariffs, and goods from all parts of the world have been imported into Siberia free of duty. This will new be altered, and Siberia will henceforward have it's closely guarded tariff frontier. both along the coasts of the Pacific ocean and on the Inland frontier Siberia will have it's own customs department; the finance
 ministry at St. Petersburg will act to : great extent quite independently.

 POSTAL CARD
Delivered After Travelling a Distance of
 2I,ooo Miles.

Chicago Chronicle: A faded, travel. stained postal card was delivered to Lieut.. G. E. Geim, in charge of the United States Photographic office in the Masonic temple, which was mailed last April. It had followed the naval officer nearly around the world before reaching him, and travelled 2f,000 miles. The postal was addressed to Lieut.. Gelm April 1, at Washington, and contained the simple information that his annual dues as a member of the Navy Mutual Aid association for the current period had been received and properly credited. The card was first addressed to the naval pay office at San Francisco, but as it was learned that Lieut.. Gelm was on board the gunboat Bennington in the Philip pines, it was promptly forwarded to Manila. When the postal arrived there it was found that the naval offi- eer had gone to the island of Cebu, and it was dispatched to that port It reached there just two days after Lieut.. Gelm had left for the United 0tates. by tnlS time the ffont or the card was covered with addresses and interlined instructions for delivery. The naval officers had it returned to the sender at Washington and it reached there Nov. 10. In the mean time Lieut.. GeIm journeyed to San Francisco by way of Hongkong, ar- irving in this country in October When he reached the Pacific coast he found telegraphic instructions await, ing him ordering him to report to Chi eago for duty. He came to this city fast week, and assumed charge of the naval Photographic office. Lieut.. Gelm intends to have the postal card famed and hung in his office as curiosity.

The Spirit Of Miss Ethel Freeoe Takes fts
Flight to The Great beyond.

Miss Ethel Fregoe, young, beautiful.
aud much beloved, has left the life she
loved 80 we'll In obedient summons to
the call to spread angel wings and take
the mysterious fight to that bourn
from which no traveller returns. After
a week OF sickness, surrounded by those
who loved her so fondly, she kissed her
mother goodbye, and died as peacefully
as the twilight fades into the night.
She died at $40 O'clock Monday morn
ing, August q, 1900, of congestion. She
a felt the coming of the unwelcome
guest and knew that life for her was
about to end, and when the messenger
came she was ready.
Kind, gentle Miss Ethel Fregoe was
about sixteen years OF nge-that happy
period poised between girlhood's
dreams and w~omanhood's realities.
Just budding into young womanhood
and surrounded by all those influences
which kept her free from care and anx-
iety, her life was exceptionally happy,
and IL seems strange that one so fair
and happy should be singled out to be
given the golden key that opens the
palaces Of eternity" She was a gen.
eral favorite among the young people,
WHO were all her friends. She was the
idol of a loving mothers heart and she
held the precious love of a brother and
two sisters. She had everything that
would cause n to wish that this life
might go on and on through countless
ages, but the fates decreed otherwise
and she made no murmur of dissent.

ELECTRICITY AND LIFE.

It has been demonstrated that an ami
NAL killed by electricity may be brought
to life. An ordinary current does not
produce instant death, and if it were pos
sible to have in readiness suitable ap-
paratus, consciousness could be restored
by the infusion of defibrinated blood In
a like manner, Eostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers. the we'll known tonic, infuses life
into debiltated bodies, by revitalizing
and purifying the blood. This wonderful
medicine permeates and distributes nu-
tritive material to every part Of the
body. If it's quality or circulation is de-
ranged, trouble follows. Constipation,
dyspepsia, liver and kidney disorders all
spring from a weak condition of the di-
gestive organs, which affects the blood,
and through it the entire body. The Bit
tiers cures all such disorders and is an
excellent spring tonic.
