been Informed that Mcqueen had been
riding about in a hack with Miss Beale
part of the night.

believing they had located Mcqueen in a
closet which was locked, fired about a
dozen shots into the door. Several passed
entirely through the closet. Mcqueen
was in the closet, but was in a narrow
place to the side Of the door and was not
struck by any of the bullets. A police
man came upon the scene quickly ard
they Beales were arrested and taken to

RAILWAY RUMBLES.

Ireland claims the honor of the first
electric railway in the United King
dom.
1t is said that the cheapest railway
fares in the world are to be found in
Hungary.
Denmark has government railroad
system of ,167 miles and 525 miles Of
private railroads
The Servian, Roumanian and Bulga-
rian railroads are owned exclusively
by the respective governments.
Travellers on Prussian railways whose
baggage, through no fault of their
own, fails to arrive with them can now
have it sent on request free to their
houses.
The difficulty of railway construction
in some parts of Africa Is illustrated
by the fact that on the FreetOwn- Mat
tru line, in Sierra Leone, eleven steel
bridges had to be built in n distance Of
only thirty kilometers.
A representative of the Paris Temps
has been examining railway stations in
Germany, and he declares that those of
Dresden, Cologne, Hanover, Frankfort,
Bremen. etc, are far superior to any
of the French except the Partisan.

exhibited, at least in early life, great
reluctance to settling with his credit

Autun by Louis XVI, he considered Il
fine new coach to be necessary to the
proper maintenance of the dignity of
that Office. Accordingly n coach was
ordered and delivered, but not paid for.
Some time after, as the newly appoint

who bowed continually until the coach
was driven away. This occurred for
several days until at length Talley-

The RIGHT THING TO PUT ON.
(Bsnsons Plaster Is Pains Mastsr.)

From the natural impulse to "put some
thing on" a painful spot all applications
for the relief of pain have arisen.
The most successful have ever been poul
tees or plasters, and the best of these is
Benson's Porous Plaster.
No other has anything like the same
power as curative agent; it is highly and
scientifically medicated and its standard
is advanced year by year.
Use Benson's Plaster for coughs, colds,
chest diseases, rheumatism, grip, neuralgia,
kidney trouble, lame back, and other all
ments that make Winter a season of suffer-
ing and danger. 1t relieves and cures
quicker than any other remedy.
Do not accept Capsicum, Strengthening
or Belladonna plasters in place of Benson's,
as they possess none of its curative power.
Insist ON having the genuine.
The people of every civilized land have
testified for years to the superlative merit
of Benson's Plasters; and 5000 physicians
and druggists of this country have declared
them worthy of public confidence.
In official comparisons with others, Ben
sons Plasters have been honored with
ffty.fre highest awards.
For sale by all druggists, or we will pre-
pay postage on any number ordered in the
United States on the receipt of 25c. each.
