SIClLIAN BRICANDS
Have Been Terrorizins the Islands Dur
 ing the Past Year.

Rome Correspondence of the Chi cago Record: Public security is at a low ebb in Sicily Energetic meas urea have been adopted to stamp out brig andage in the island but unless these are persisted in there are slight hopes Of definitely wiping away this standing disgrace of Italy. 1 am glad to say that in the continental kingdom life and property are comparatively secure
 Telegrams from Catania announce that the brigand chiefs Santangeio and Destefano have been killed and their followers dispersed in an encounter with the carabiniers, but they will as. semble again under some other blood thirsty villain. Santangelo was only 2l, and he entered on his lawless ea- reer in the mountains early in 1898, after having fired on a policeman who was trying to arrest one of his friends. In September Of that year he murdered a field idborer who had refused his supplies He joined Destefano's band in the forests around Mount Etna. In January last the two descended to tha smiling Piana di Catania and entered 8 farm where several laborers were at work. They beckoned to one of them "a man named Puleo, who was said to be in relations with the poliee-and told the others to stand aside. Puleo came up and was foully murdered. In May, in an attempt to capture them, one carabinier was killed and another wounded. The brigands Manzelea and. Castiglione were surprised by the po- lice in a house at Gastellamare, near Palermo. They were wounded and ar@ rested after a severe conflict. II the same district other freebootera seized the son of well-to-do notary, took him up to the hills and obtained $4,000 for his ransom. Tie police, while in search of the scoundrels, came upon another band of marauders and sue- ceeded in a running fight in killing one of them and recovering much stolen property. The latest statistics give 27.9 murders per 100000 inhabitants in Sicily, while in Tuscany and upper Italy the average is about 6 per 100000.

A Quarantine Against Cows.

A curious contest is going on in Tam- pa, Fla. Residents Of certain sections of the city want an exemption made of their part of the city so that COWS may graze in the streets. Other residents do not want this, and the fight is a lively one, the city administration be- ing the sufferer. So many depredations nave been made recently by cows run ming at large in the streets that the irate residents and owners of lawns and flower gardens have organized shotgun quarantine against the cows and declare that they are going to mur- der some of them if they arc not kept locked up.
