FOUND A HUMAN HEAD.
Only Clue Is a Silver Plate and Arti-
fetal Teeth.

Chicago. Oct. IA silver tooth plate to
which two false inscissors Of the upper
jaw were wired is the only clue to the
identity Of the severed human head
which was found tied in a grain sack in
Cedar Lake, just across the Indiana
state line.
Identification Of the victim of the sup
posed murdered mans head is alb
solutely impossible so far as recognizing
the features are concerned, because the
head was packed in quick lime before
being thrown into the lake, and the
features were destroyed by the action OF
the chemical. The only hope of getting
a clue to the mystery is that the DENTS
try work may be recognized by some
dentist.
The head bids fair to furnish a muir
der mystery as famous as the Gulden-
suppe case in New York. -

Sells Gets a Divorce.

Columbus, Dec. 19-Judge Evans this
morning granted divorce to Peter Sells
from Mary A. Sells.
The amount of alimony agreed upon
by counsel which is allowed Mrs. Sells ID
being kept secret.
The decree was granted on the ground
OF gross neglect OF duty. The court said
the agreement between counsel left only
the one question of divorce to be deter
mined, that since the gross neglect OF
duty charge of the petition had been
amply sustained, therefore it was not
necessary to consider the more serious
charges.
The gross neglect charge having been
proved, Sells was entitled to divorce if
his own character we're clear. Then the
courts began to 'nalyze the testimony
to the effect that Sells had committed
adultery in Kansas City with Grace
Beall and in Chattanooga with Matte
Schultz.
Judge Evans said Grace Beall's story
was improbable and that the evidence of
the Chattanooga charges came out of the
mouths of witnesses without credit who,
in fact belong to the criminal classes.

Sells character as he saw it through the
evidence.

The effect of the Transvaal war has
been to consolidate the power of Great
Britain and her Colonies. Though at
the outset there were many mistakes
made, these have been repaired, and the
result has been that the attention Of
the British people has been called to
lax military methods and out of date
weapons. For a considerable time In
the future the British army will be very
efficiently equipped. But far greater
than even this is the linking together
of the colonies with the mother country.
Many critics have thought that the col
onies have been drifting away, but the
rally of Australians, Canadians and
others to the aid of the mother coun-
try has undeceived many, The Boer
war has been practically a struggle to
preserve the empire, and 1t has been
saved. To Lord Roberts belongs the
glory of the feat. ,,.

says that the war would come to an end
pretty quickly if the Filipinos We're not
buoyed up with hopes from the Demo-

their heads that the success of that
party at the next election would mean
the instant withdrawal of the United
States troops from the Philippines, the
abandonment of Manila to the looting
to the Tagalos, and a general reign Of
desired anarchy So the Filipino keeps
up the fight, with intervals of quietude
as an amigo. Thus, the anti-imperialist
campaign of the Democrats will prac-
tically condemn to death a considerable
number of our boys in blue, and make
desolate many a home on the Main

the statements that the place would he

In fact, the Boer power since Roberts

Consul General Hay and Vice Consul
Wood distinguished themselves by US
ing their influence to have twenty of
the English officers, who had been cap
tured, paroled, in order to take charge
of the soldier prisoners near Pretoria.

might have broken out and there might
have been fine kind of row. The ac-
ton of Consul General Hay and his
colleague is highly to be commended.

ed the three score years and ten. Presi-
dent Kruger is a very old man. so is
Lord Salisbury, and Lord Roberts is in
command of an army at an age when
most men have given up all thought of
campaigning, and are toasting their old

ties they have fought in their youth.
1t cannot be said that old age means
loss of vigor and mental ability in any

looks very much as if the next steamer
