A Swim in the Dead Sea.

Every one has heard Of the buoy
ancy Of the water Of the Dead Sea. 1t
is virtually impossible to sink in the
Dead Sea, and so great is the quantity
of salt in the water that if you dip
your hand in and draw it out again,
you will Immediately see the salt crys-
tallizing in the sun. 1t is needless to
remark that an involuntary mouthful
of Dead Sea water is horrible expe-
rience, never likely to be forgotten by
the bather. However, if you don't stay
in the water too long, a swim in the
Dead Sea is very extraordinary and
pleasurable experience. The shores, as
is we'll known, are strangely desolate,
and they are strewn with bits of wood
and branches of trees all crusted with
brine in the most curious manner, and
woe unto any one who goes into this
water having open cuts or scratches on
his body.

Ell Paso.-M. B. Davis, division sup
erintendent of Wells, Fargo Express
Company here, received a message to-
day stating that John Krug and Chas.
Lehn, co-partners in the Escalon, Mex.

the other at New Orleans.
Krug was agent for Wells, Fargo

Wednesday Chas. Lehn, formerly yard
master for the Mexican Central at Es-
Gallon, sold $4,000 of Mexican money at
the San Antonio bank. his was the
first intimation the detectives had
that Lehn was connected with the af-
fair. He was arrested and said that
Krug was in New Orleans.
Krug was arrested there this morn
ing. He and his wife were en- route
to the East. He had $1,000 ON his per-
son. Nothing has been learned of the
disposition of the rest of the money.
The Mexican government has asked
the Texas and Louisiana authorities
to hold both parties pending requi-
sition proceedings.

English postoffice clerks must here
after address all male correspondents
as Esquire" unless they "are evident
ly laborers, personal servants or trades
men," So rules the Marquis of London
derry, postmaster general. His order
tends to widen the application Of the
title, which has been held to belong to
the eldest sons Of certain noblemen,
officers Of the courts and the Queens
household, barristers, justices, sheriffs
and ex-off1cers Of the army and navy.
In the United States the title is, per-
haps, most properly given to attorneys;
In practice, it is used as indiscriminate-
ly as the overworked Honorable"
But If one uniformly addressed Ameri-
cans as "Mr." and Englishmen as
ESQ" the Englishman could not be
offended, and the American would have
no right to be.

So far as known when the messenger

Daniel Libby, One of the Original GoIovln
Bay Miners, Now Rich.

Tacoma, (Wash.), Oct. 21.-Daniel
B. Libby, one of the richest miners in
the Govolin Bay district, enjoys the
unique distinction of having found
gold in the same district thirty three
years ago. Circumstances compelled
him to be absent thirty-three years,
but last year he returned and has tru-
ly struck it rich.
In 1866 he belonged to party of
Western Union surveyors which was
locating telegraph line through AL
aska and across Bering Sea to ASIA
His party spent the winter at Port
Clarence. In journeying from there to
Norton Sound Libby struck the head
waters of Neuckluck river, and with
one companion panned gold out of the
gravel on it's banks. Their time being
short, they moved on and said moth

To Collect at Pistols Point.

Chicago.-S. I. Morris, a contractor,
was arrested for an alleged attempt
upon the life of John w. Gates, ex-
president of the American Steel and
Wire Company. When searched at
the Police Station, two large revol-
vers were found concealed in his poc-
kets.
1t is asserted that Morris also had
designs upon the life of w. ]. Brim-
son, general manager of the Kansas
City and Southern Railroad, whom
Morris, it is alleged, had enticed to
this city by means Of telegram pur-
porting to have been signed by Gates,
but which he himself had sent. Man
ager Brimson arrived at the Grand
Pacific Hotel today in accordance with
the appointment made in the telegram
Failing to find Gates, he called upon
him in his Office in the Rookery build
ing.
After hasty consultation, the two
men decided that Norris originated
the scheme, both having received
threatening letters from him.
Morris was captured near the offices
of the Illinois Steel Company in the
Rookery building. He was formedly
in the employ of Gates, and main
rtains that the latter owes him $4,000.
After disarming him the police
man took him to the Central Station,
where he was locked up.
Morris acknowledged that he intend
ed to collect an alleged debt aggregat
ing $4,000 from Gates and Brimson,
at the point of his revolver. Morris
declares that he was authorized to ex-
pend certain sums OF money in the
furtherance of the Calumet and Blue
Island Railroad. In 1899 Morris
brought suit against Gates, but he
says he withdrew the suit on the
promise of the settlement of his
claim. The settlement, he says, has
not been affected.

The severity Of Russia toward Fin.
land is resulting in large increase of
the population Of the United States,
and an increase Of Industrious, law
abiding citizens. When Alexander I.
wrested Finland from Sweden he
promised his new subjects certain
rights which they have enjoyed ever
since. The present Gear, however, has
broken this pledge, and by placing Rus
sian officers in command of the Finnish
army. substituting the study of the
Russian language in the schools, abol-
ishing the Finnish flag and by other op-
pressive acts, he has broken the nation
al pride of noble and patriotic people.
In their sorrow the Films are turning
to America. Last year fifteen thousand
emigrated. This year one steamship
line alone has made contracts to bring
fifty-five thousand to this country. I'm
like most immigrants, these people seek
the country rather than the city, for
they are nearly all farmers. If they
display here the qualities which have
distinguished them at home, they will
bring strength, not weakness, to the
land which offers them asylum.

purpose of the murders was robbery
II saw as many as five bodies my

one was arrested, the fact that these

CRAZY MEN BREAK LOOSE.
A Revolt at Mattewan State Hospital.

Poughkeepsie, IN. Y.) Oct. There
was a revolt at the Mattewan State
Hospital for the Criminal Insane this
evening when six or eight keepers were
assaulted by about twenty insane pa
tients. Some of the patients escaped
and several are still at large. One of
two of the keepers are badly bruised.
After the patients had been given
their supper they were taken back to
their apartments with their keepers.
Among the number were Is or 20 who
slept in one of the large corridors,
where there were six or eight keepers.
There were no suspicious movements
on the part of the patients. But sud
denly, and without warning, each
keeper was attacked simultaneously by
two or three patients, and heavy blows
fell on the heads of the surprised at
tendants. The keys held by the keep
ers were taken from them quickly, and
a rush for the door was made.
The patients first passed through
the dining room, where each picked
from the table a heavy plate or cup
or bowl. From the dining room they
went through the adjoining rooms,
the doors of which were unlocked, and
into the long hall leading to the rear
exit. Through the yard they ran like
deer and crowded around the big gate
in the wall while one of their number
was turning the key in the lock. When
the gate was thrown open they rushed
out of the yard, fairly tumbling over
each other in their anxiety to gain
freedom.
In the meantime the keepers had
recovered sufficiently to give an alarm
Chase was given across the hospital
farm and all but seven of the patients
were captured. The recaptured pa
tients were taken back to the institu-
ton and securely locked up in other
parts of the building. Searching par
ties started out to scour the woods in
the vicinity of the hospital. The keep
ers who were assaulted were given
medical attention and we're able to
join in the search for the fugitives.
The revolt, it is thought, was caused
directly by the cramped quarters at
the hospital.

ROBBERY AND MURDER.
Constable Morren Made Gallant Fight
But was Killed.
ROBBER SUCCEED In GETTING AWAY
Bronaugh, Mo-. Visited by Seven Masked
Men. Who Blew Up the Vault Of the
Farmers Bank.

st. Louis, Mo-, Oct. 19.-Memories
of the fateful days of Jesse James and
the depredations of the Dalton gang
were revived by news received here
this morning of a successful bank rob-
berry at Bronaugh in the southwestern
part OF the State, during which a con-
stable was killed and the robbers sue
ceeded in getting away (.
1t was half past 1 o'clock this morn
ing when the robbery occurred. Con-
stable William T. Morren, the night
watchman of the town, was conversing
with the night clerk of the Bronaugh
House at the desk when the sound of
terrific explosion was heard. Nor
rem devined in moment that the
sound came from the Farmers bank
on the corner diagonally opposite the
hotel, and that robbery was in prog
ress. He pulled his revolver and start
ed across the street, shooting as he
ran in the direction of the bank. Just
as he reached the center of the street
he threw up both hands and fell on
his face, dead, with a trifle bullet
wound squarely between his eyes.
The night clerk had in the mean
time secured a rifle, but the robbers
kept up such fusilade towards the
hotel that he was unable to do any
effective work.
Several minutes elapsed after the
explosion and then seven mounted
and masked men issued from the shad-
ow of the bank building and rode down
the street, shooting in the direction of
any lights that appeared in the win
dows of the inhabitants who had been
aroused by the uproar.
The town has population of about
500 and the shooting brought ali the
men out but the robbers got away
safely. The robbers stole their tools
from the Missouri Pasific railroad tool
chest. The safe Of three-inch steel
was enclosed in a steel-lined stone
vault. Some of the robbers stood
guard outside while the safe was be-
ing wrecked.
Cashier Brubaker of the bank says
the loss is $1625.

From His Cell to an Alter.

Ell Paso, (Tex), Oct. 1.-Felecista
Telles, a popular member of Spanish
society here, went to the County Jail
here this morning and was married to
E. Garcia, her old lover, who is there
under. charge of murder, with the pen
atty of death fixed.
Garcia was arrested a year ago for
the mruder of Edward O'Connor, a
young merchant of this city. He was
tried at the spring term of court, con-
victed of murder, and the punishment
fixed at death. In Garcia's trial Fele-
cista Telles, then his affianced, testi-
fed in his behalf. Later she was con-
victed of perjury and sentenced to two
years in prison. An appeal was taken
and she came clear at the term Of the
court now in session.
Miss Telles has used every effort to
save her lovers life since the fatal
shooting, and last week secured new
trial, after spending her small fortune
for him, and has repeatedly asked for
matrimonial rights. The state author
tiles as often refused until this morn
ing, when the two were made man and
wife.
She is a beautiful young girl, and
her story has enlisted the sympathy
of every one here. When the con-
demned man was led from his cell to
the jail corridor, which was to be his
marriage altar, this morning, he wept
bitterly in the arms of his bride-to-be
before the ceremony was performed.
After the ceremony the young bride
followed her husband to the door of
his cell, then, bidding him a fond
adieu, returned to the home of her pa

Warm Regards of the Gar for the United

New York, Oct. 21.-The Herald this
morning prints a long cable from NAL
ia, where the Car of Russia is staying,
giving an interview with high Rus
sian official, who is thoroughly con-
versant with the monarch's political
views, who tells frankly of the Cars
unselfish purpose in the east and
warmly praises the attitude of the
United States. He said that Russia's
sole aim in China has been to secure
peace, and she will seek no territory
unles others take the initiative. Talk
of Russia's desire to annex Mancnurda
is called ridiculous He spoke OF the
growing sentiment of Russia for
America. In st. Petersburg the cor
responent learne that Germany's
course had excited the distrust Of all
Russians. The death of Count Mou
ravieff, late minister of foreign affairs,
it attributed to shock caused by his
sudden knowledge of the extent of the
Chinese troubles.
