Of it and were under fire for two and a
half hours, considerably longer than
any other corps. But the cost was aw-
full! We had only ten officers in action,
329 men we had II killed and SO wound
ed; two have since died of their
wounds. The Gordons lost even more
severely. The reasons for this were, in
my opinion, as follows: First, their
dark kits were much more visible than
our khakis and consequently formed
better target; second, there were more
of them. The Gordons all say that
Dargai was the merest child's play
compared to this.
"To return to my own doings. lay

BAKE THEMSELVES ALIVE.
Russian Fanatics Thus Obtain Re-
lease From Trouble,

Baking themselves in huge roaring
ovens is the climax of emotional en-
thusiasm and self sacrifice of a
strange sect Of Russians. They are the
Begonny, and they live in the village
of Ternowo, near Tiraspol.
The sect's origin was rather political
and economical than religious, their
agitations having always been direct
ed toward greater personal liberty and
political power for individual members
of society.
They demand the abolition of docu-
ments for proving identity and also the
abolition of the necessity for the pass
port They repudiate compulsory mill
tary service, and if forced to bear arms
they are liable to emotional enthusl-
asm, leading to self sacrifice. The
form of death which they adopt is usu-
ally burial while alive, but occasional
ly it is self destruction by fire.
When the last great sacrifice of the
sect was made, the people adopted the
voluntary cremation method as
means of getting an eternal release
from their troubles. On single day
four families went out from a village
and did themselves to death. A huge
oven was built, and into it those who
voluntarily decided to die plunged
themselves.
The people who lacked the necessary
enthusiasm or strength Of mind or who
felt that they were not worthy Of at
tempting the great achievement knelt
and prayed while they wept for their
relatives and friends, whose charred
bones they kissed in an ecstasy of af-
lection and admiration.

NEW MOTOR ENGINE.
One to Pull Passenger Coaches at Small
Cost.

I0Sr,
President Cassart Of the Pennsylva-
MIA lines Is having his private car
equipped with new Vimotum engine
In Indianapolis, and when completed
the car will be taken over the lines Of
the company for exhibition purposes.
The engine used is the invention OF
Thomas NJ. Defrees Of Indianapolis.
Equipped with Defrees' thermotor, the
cars can travel at the rate of 40 to so
miles an hour. t8
The mechanism is So constructed
that railroad companies may remodel
passenger coaches already in service,
no specially constructed car being re-
uuired for the engine, says the Chicago
correspondent of the Pittsburg Dis
patch. The coaches can be operated
at about half the cost Of operating an
electric car. Only one man is required
to handle the engine, which, in addi-
ton to propelling the car, supplies the
coach with light and heat.
The entire apparatus is constructed
with a view to obtaining the greatest
power at the least cost, and it is esti-
mated that the car can make the trip
from Chicago or Pittsburg to New
York without stop for fuel or water
and at a cost of only SIS. A COM
pany has been formed in Indianapolis
to install the new power for railroad
companies.

4 HORRIBLE TRAGEDY.
COLUMBUS THE SCENE OF A SENSA-
TiONAL CRIME.
c,,+ain J. W. Murphy, Cashier of the Third
National Bank, Killed P T. Shutz'
the Bookkeeper, Then Himself.

INV
Ono Of the most horrible crimes In
4ho history of this section occurred IN
Columbus last Tuesday morning at the
THIRD National Bank, when Captain D..
" Murphy, vice-president and cash
,or shot and killed p. L. Shutz, the
bookkeeper of that bank.
About 10 80 o'clock Captain Murphy
called Mr.. Shutz back into his private
office for a business conversation, it
was supposed. They had only been In
the room short while before three
shots were heard. The other officials
Of the bank rushed to Captain Muir
nhy's office and found the bookkeeper
and Captain Murphy dead.
Captain Murphy had first shot Mr..
Shutz in the temple, killing him ln-
stantly, and then shot himself twice
in the mouth, the balls ranging up
ward to the brain and causing instant
death.
No hard feeling was known to exist
between the two men, and the murder
and suicide are supposed to have been
committed in fit of temporary insan-
ity.
Mr.. Shutz was q member of the city
council and leaves young wife and
three small children.
Captain Murphy leaves wife and
one grown son, the paying teller at
the bank.
Captain Murphy was under treat
ment for facial paralysis, which I'M
dOubtedly reached his brain. He was
formerly assistant state treasurer, and
was one of the best lknOwD politicians
IN Georgia.
The bank is in no way affected.
