Why Mississippians Live Long.

Bishop Thompson, Of Mississippi,
said the other day: "I suppose there
is larger percentage Of old men in
Mississippi than any other State-at
least, it seems so to me, and I have
seen good many. By old l mean
from 80 to go. They are not decrepit
old men who hug the fireside, but are
quite lively old fellows. One Of them
whom I knew, man Of 80, recently
got little too lively. He went out
after d..k without lantern, fell into
q ditch, and was broken up just as if
he we're china. forget how many
bones were broken
Glow do you account bishop for
this large proportion of old men. in
Mississippi1'i asked some one.
Swell" :" said the Bishop, There is
mo chance to become rich in Missis-
sippi. Everybody knows it nna does
not worry himself into an early grave
trying to.

CT, years old, to enter his house on Spre- gins street, and then assaulted her. When he fell asleep, being in an intoxicated con- dition, the girl ran out and told her rela- tives. She said Owens threatened to kill her If she told and she was in terrible fright. Owens was arrested by Policemen Dan Keene and James Overton and given over to the custody of Sheriff Rodgers, who placed him in jail
 The Walker girl belonged to a prominent family of negroes, and there was great in- dignation among the colored residents when the offense became known. A large crowd gathered at the jail eager to lynch the negro. and an assault would probably have been made if any one man had vol unteered to lead. Owens has been in jail before for criminally assaulting a small girl of his own race.

ARMOR PLATE
For New Cruisers Failed to Stand the
 Test

Washington September 24.-A sample plate of a series of plates for the protective decks of the cruisers Chattanooga and Cleveland failed to stand the required test at Indian Head today. It was subjected to the fire of a six-inch gun at an angle to nine degrees and was completely shat tered. About 120 tons of steel were in the lot, of which the plate was a sample, and ordinarily the collapse of the plate would mean the rejection of the lot. But as the sample selected was the worst plate to be found in the lot another trial may be all lowed. The breaking up of the plate, it Is said, indicates that the treatment of the plate was not uniform.

DESPERATE CRIMINALS.

They XIII q Keeper and p Trusty In an
Effort t" Escape.
New York, Nov. 1.-Two colored

trict court in West Fifty. Fourth street,

81 years old, and probably fatally in.
jured George Wilson. SO years. a
"trusty.' who had evidently tried to
aid McGovern. One Of the prisoners.
Arthur Flanagan. escaped, the other,
Frank Emerson, fell into the yard ad.
joining the prison and was instantly
killed.
The prisoners were together in cell
on the first tier on level with the
fourth floor of the prison. They sawed
two bars in the lower part OF the cell
door and got into the corridor. They
went to the nearest window, about six
feet from the floor, and sawed one bar
at the bottom, showing it out and get.
ting through. In doing this. it is sup.
posed they encountered McGovern and
Wilson, killing one and wounding the
other.
The escaping prisoners used their
bedding for rope and swung from Q
window. Flanagan succeeded in
swinging to the roof Of car stable adj.
joining, but Emerson did not make it,
and fell headlong to q pile of rails,
crushing his skull.
