DIED OF HIS WOUNDS.
George Spence. Colored Victim of
Max Cohen's Pistol.

MAX COhen' s Pistol.
Max Cohen. who shot the colored
man, George. Spence, early Tuesday
morning in n bar room up town. is
fugitive. and Is now charged with muir
der. Spence died at 10 O'clock yester-
day morning from his wounds.
AS soon as the authorities were inoti-
fled of Spence's death Coroner Holla-
day had Il jury summoned, which
viewed the body at Spences home. in
Griffin street AS DIR. Holiday wished
to examine the body, the jury was adj
journed, without hearing testimony.
the jury were r. N. Ashton, G. w.
Mooney G. NJ. Reynolds, r. d. Guy,
c. X. Welton and Walter Hart.
On reassembling at the police station
the jury heard the evidence of eight
colored witnesses, who described the
shooting in detail
The tragedy took place in Messen-
gers bar, at the corner of Columbia
and Pine streets. at o'clock Tuesday
morning. Spence and Arthur Johnson
were playing poker, when some dispute
arose and johnson quit playing, and
taking up the kit" or money box
started with 1t into an adjoining room.
Spence knocked the box out of john
sons hand and it rolled jangling over
the floor
Max Cohen, the bar-keeper, told
Spence to keep quiet. as he didn't want
any fuss. "D-n the fuss and you,
too" retorted Spence. Cohen ran be-
hind the bar to get his pistol, and
Spence becoming alarmed tried to get
out of the building. Both doors. to the
place were barred, however, and the
negro. finding his retreat cut off, hid
under n table.
Several negroes who were in the place
grabbed Cohen and tried to detain him,
but he broke away, declaring he in
tened to kill Spence. Discovering
Spence under the table Cohen leveled
his pistol to fire, but the negro scam
percd out and started to run upstairs.
He was still in crouching position
when Cohen fired. The ball passed
| through Spence's hand and entered his
body. Spence continued upstairs, but
was presently brought down and car
ricd home.
Cohen. according to the witnesses
declared he had shot to KILL and he
would kill anybody who cursed him.
| One of the witnesses, Chas. Church
well, testified that after the shooting
two colored men notified Constable
Ainsworth of what had happened and
Ainsworth came around to the saloon
In the meantime Messenger. the owner
OF the place. had come in. He, with
Cohen and Ainsworth, had a talk, after
which Cohen left the place.
Justice r. p Bntdhg has tssued,a war
rant for Cohens arrest, but he has not
been seen since the shooting.

SUIT FOR DAMAGES.

The case of E. w. Little VS.. the City
of Portsmouth and the Portsmouth
street railroad for $4,000 damages,
claimed by Mr.. Little for injuries re-
ceived by him about twelve months ago
on First street, near Emmerson's mill.
he being run into by car of the Ports
mouth street railroad on the yard
route.
Mr.. Little was coming from the navy
yard and was walking on the plank
walk that had been put there by the
city for pedestrians. At this point the
track runs close up to the walk, and
Mr.. Little claims that the car came
along running at a high rate of speed
and never gave a sound of warning,
and for that reason he never knew that
it was SO near until he was knocked
down and received injuries. from which
he has never recovered.
Mr.. Little is represented by Judge w.
II. Portlock and Col. r. e. Boykin, of
Smithfield: the city by Captain Hap
per and the railroad by Mr. Alfred p.
Thorn.
Captain Happier entered a demurrer,
claiming that the city was in no way
responsible for the accident, as the
street railroad had laid their tracks
after the walk had been laid. There
fore they could not be held responsible.
Mr.. Thorn demurred on the grounds
that the bill did not state the location
other than the street.
The court sustained Captain Hap
per's demurrer. but refused Mr..
Thom's.
Mr.. Thorn then asked for con-
tinuance of the case for thity days,
which was granted.

DURATION Of MODERN WARS.
Long Drawn Out Contests During
the Present Century.

|fnLlHE SL.IEL.N.-
Golfers Weekly: The unexpected
p~rotraction of the Boer war need not
alarm ~Englishmen, since much longer
wars have been fought by them witll-
7 this century. Napoleon declared
war against England in May, 1903, the
previous War between the two coun-
tries having only terminated by the
treaty OF Amiens in October. 1901. The
wa OF 1903 lasted till April, 1914,
when Paris surrendered to the allies
\ Napoleon was sent as prisoner to
Elba, where he arrived on the 4th of
May. He escaped from Efba in March,
1915, and recommended the war,
which finally terminated with Napo-
Icons defeat at the Battle of Water
loo on the 18th of June, 1915, having
lasted nearly twelve years. Napoleon
was sent as prisoner to st. Helena,
where he died in 1921.
The European power that has been
most at war during the century has
been Turkey--thirty-eight years of it
as against sixty-two of peace. The
second on the list is Spain, with thir-
ty-two years of warfare, not counting
her las> fatal campaign. Then come
France with twenty-seven years,
Russia with twenty-four and Italy
with tw%enty-three. Great Britain has
had no less than twcnty-one. Ger
many. not counting Prussia, follows
with fourteen, Sweden with ten, ana
Denmark with nine.
Our Nv country during this CEN
fury has escaped with three foreign
wars, one civil strife, the Philippine
instruction aud a bakers dozen of
Indian campaigns. the longest of
which was the Seminole war.

WHAT SAY S


Doubled Their Cultivated Lands and
More than Doubled Their Stock.
The following letter written by Nh
John Cummings of Wetaskiwin, Al
berta, Canada, formerly of@sNashing-
ton, to n friend i'll the United States
is only one Of a hundred similar cases,
and what was done by Mr.. Cummings
can more easily be done today by any
good, sober and industrious farmer who
chooses to make his home in the Do
minion.
Dear Sir-You want to know how l
got along since l came into Northern
Alberta. am happy to inform you
that l am not ashamed to tell.
We located five miles northeast OF
Wetaskiwin; left Pennington, Wash
ington, on the 10th of May, driving all
the way.
We had time to build our log house
the first fall and to make us comfort
able for the family and stock. We
then built four stables, 1Sx2O inside, so
that we could put everything inside
them when the cold got down to the
%tiftles, and worked hard getting up the
stable, and got through clubbing on the
list of December, but sto our surprise
we had no use for the stables, only for
the milch COW and two span of horses.
The balance of the horses lived on the
prairie all winter and took care of
themselves. The doors of two stables
were left open for them to go into in a
cold time, but they would not do 1t. but
stayed out on the prairie the co.des.
night we had and looked as spry as
cricketS.
l can go ten rods back of my house
and count ten residents. know all of
their circumstances. Every one of
them have doubled their cultivated
land and doubled their animals, and a.
great deal more. All of us are com
paratively out of debt and an unusually
big crop to thresh and prospects Of a
fair price, and | expect we are as well
contented lot of people rs there are
from Florida to the Klondike.
My son bought two pounds of Irvine
to the acre, and when we started 10
bind some barley, we found that in
stead-of taking two pounds to the acre,
it was taking nearly five pounds. Then
you ought to have seen him hitch up Il
team and make for town for 100 lbs.
more. l cannot say how it will thresli.
All can say is that it Is well headed,
and takes an enormous amount of
Irvine.

AN ALLEGED CHICAGO TRICK,
Tho Preliminaries Were al Right, but II
L. IL He Failed.

Il saw a queer trick in Chicago the
other day" said the drummer, as he
lighted a fresh cigar and pared his nails
with his pocket-knifc.
OF course two or three of the group
wanted to know all about it. and he con.
tinued:
"One of you let me have q clean ~
dollar bill for a moment. All! that's a
daisy of a bill-just off the press last
week. Now, then, l lay the bill face
downward on the lloor-thus. The
chap who did the trick was not a pro-
fessional juggler, but he did it with MT
ness and dispatch. Idon't say I can do
it myself, but I'll try"
"Bnt what is the trick?"
Why, take my knife and cut the
bill lengthwise--so. Then | cut i.
crosswise-so. That divides the bill in
to four equal portions, doesn't itp"
Every one in tho group answered
that 1t did, and the drummer gazed a.
the pieces awhile ands aid:
"The trick is to blow the pieces to.
gether so that the edges will unite. The
Chicago man did it, but just how I
couldn't find out. Let's sec. l will
now blow. All! they do not unite. ]
will blow again"
"What in the Oh Harry are you try
ing to do?" demanded the owner of the
bill.
sWhy, I'm trying to blow the pieces
together innoccntly replied the drum
mer.
But You can't do it."
NO, l seei can't. The Chicago man
did it, but I'm not onto the trick. Here
are the four pieces. and ] guess you'll
have to get a bottle of mucs!age and a
sheet Of paper and paste them together.
Awfully cute trick, but l can't do it.
Wish | could. but l can't"
And, strangely enough, the owner Of
the bill looked ut the pieces, and from
the pieces to the drummer and back,
and then called the drummer a double
dyed idiot and walked off with the
declaration that he'd ike to punch some.
