PRESSED FlOWER RS.

Flowers are pressed and dried in books
Gone lucent colors. fresh and new
Gone sweetness, swaying, bloom and devil
And thoughts are mummied there in books
No light of eye nor pose of head.
The thought that's written is unsaid.
And yet one touch of natures there,
And memory leads us true,
From 1ithered leaf to budding flower,
From moldering dust to freshening shower,
From musty page to odorous air.
From words to thoughts anew.

LEFT A TRAIL OF BLOOD.
Additional Testimony in the Trial of
Jester-Witness Saw Body
in the Wagon.

ST. Louis, July IA special tele-
gram to the Post-Dispatch from New
London, Mo-, says testimony in the
Jester trial was continued Monday,
Mrs. Rebecca Steward, wife of Capt.
Hugh Steward, who testified on
Saturday last to seeing pool of blood
and blood spots in the road in Hulen
lane along which Jester was travelling,
fully corroborated her husbands testi-
mony. Mrs. Amanda Clark testified
that she too, accompanied by her sis
ter, rode along Hulen lane on the same
day, and when near the old Presby-
terian church she met Jester with two
teams and wagons. In those days, she
said, strangers spoke to each other on
the highways and she spoke to Jester,
but he did not reply and acted peculiar
ly. In the rear wagon she saw the fig
ure of a man lying on the floor under
some covering. AS soon as she passed
the wagons she saw blood spots in the
snow and farther on she saw pool of
blood in the road. When she returned
from Middle Grove she noticed that the
trail of blood turned, south at the
mouth of Hulen lane.

New York, July 17.-Once more
fighter pitted against boxer has
clearly demonstrated the superiority
of the fighter. Monday night in the
presence of $4,000 persons in Madison
Square Garden, Terry McGovern, of
Brooklyn, defeated Frank Erne. of
Buffalo, the lightweight champion
of the world. Ii was hurricane fight
from bel to bell. without a seconds
let-up, except when either one of the
contestants was lying on the floor of
the ring. McGovern rushed in on Erne
at the very beginning. and sent left
and right in such quick succession that
Erne, fast as he is, was nonplussed.
Erne undoubtedly is the cleverer of
the two, but his cleverness availeS him
nothing against the bulldog rushes
and fierce attacks of the little feather
weight champion

Events.

Paris, July 17.-Twenty-one cham
pionship contests in connection with
the exposition have been decided dur
ing the last three days, and America
can boast of winning IL and of securing
13 seconds and II thirds. Nine events
took place Monday, in which the Amer
loans placed six firsts, six seconds and
seven thirds TO their credit. They cap
tured the 2O0 meters hurdle race. the
standing high jump, the hop, step and
jump, the hammer-throwing and the
standing long jump, and they did it
easily. In fact, the facility with which
the American athletes carried off prizes
finally grew monotonous.

TOWN INUNDATED.
Cloudburst Causes Ruin In n Texns
villnRe-Fiftcen Lives Known
TO Have Been Lost.

Coleman, Tex, July 17.-Fifteen lives
are known to have been lost in cloud
burst here Monday. Ten bodies have
been recovered, but only two were iden-
titled. They are: Joseph Spath, lead
ing merchant of the village, and John
Fuleisstine. 1t is feared that many
more lives were lost in the valley be-
low Coleman. The cloudburst, which
followed three days unprecedented
rainfall, caused Ford's creek to burst
its banks and rush through Coleman,
a village of less than 1000 inhabitants.
Bewildered citizens, reused from their
slumbers, rushed into the streets and
were swept away. Many were saved
by catching hold Of pieces of timber
and navigating them into eddies
formed by the swift currcnt, where
they were drawn ashore.
Spath and Fuleisstine managed to
mount their horses. They dashed into
the water and swan their horses to a
house where four little girls were
screaming for help. Each rescued two
of the children, whom they took on
their horses. The animals were swept
away. however, in noble effort to
stem the swift current, and all were
drowned.
1t is believed that several lives have
been lost along the course of the creek
in the valley below Coleman. Advices
received from Kerrville, Tex, state that
a cloudburst occurred in the noun
tains north of there, which destroyed
railroad bridge over the Guadalupe
| river and inundated many farms.
st. Louis, July ia special to the
| Republic from Austin, Tex, says: After
| several hours of incessant rain a cy-
clone struck the town of Llano, 200
miles north of here, Sunday night about
7:35 o'clock. The storm came from the
southeast and was wholly unexpected.
| 1t demolished a number of buildings
| and large number of people were in
| jured. a few of them seriously.
