DONE BY THE DEAD.

Grewsome Spectacle When the Dead
Seem to Feign Life.
Live persons have feigned death with
marvellous exactness, but when the
dead feign life, or seem to feign life.
the spectacle is as gruesome as can
well be imagined. Not long ago Rus,
sian cemetery was the scene of as
weird wedding as ever has been wit
messed. A young girl who had been
.hetrothed died on the eve, Of her mar.
Rage, and her friends decided that. in
spite of the intervening hand of death,
hef marriage must take place. Tho
wedding ceremony was performed at
the side of the grave, and after the
marriage the body was returned to the
coffin and lowered to its long resting
place. 1t is less than year ago that
valuable cup was won in a bicycle
race in Australia by a man who was
dead when he passed the winning post.
The race took place at an electric
Light carnival so called, in the pres
ence of 10000 spectators. In the last
lap James Somervllle, rider, forged to
the front and secured such lead that
mis- victory was assured. When within
twenty-five yards of the finish he was
seen to relax his hold on the handle
bars and lose his footing on the ped
ais. He did not fall from the machine,
however, and amid frantic cheers
dashed by the goal winning the race
by half wheel. AS he passed the
finishing post he pitched forward and
fell to the ground. When he was pick
ed up he was found to be dead. and.
what was more, the doctors declared
that death had come to him when he
was seen to lose his hold of the ham
dlebars. 1t was a dead body that had
ridden the last twenty-five yards of the
race. On recent voyage the sealing
schooner Arietis was cruising about
200 miles off the coast of British Co,
mmbia when she sighted dismantled
ship. The Arietis bore down upon The
derelict, and as she got near enough
man was seen on board grasping the
wheel and apparently steering the
craft. No other sign Of man was Seen
ON the ship. The man at the wheel
was hailed, but returned no answer
just stood there grasping the spokes
of the wheel and looking straight
ahead. A boat was lowered and the
mysterious ship boarded. When they
came close to the man at the wheel
they saw with horror that he was dead
and had evidently been dead for many
days. San Francisco Bulletin.

CONFEDERATE REUNION.

Memphis, Tenn, March 10-At a re-
cent meeting of the general executive
committee of the Confederate reunion
for 1901 committee was appointed to
join with the several commercial
bodies of Memphis to visit Washing
ton and invite President Mckinley to
be the guest of the city of Memphis on
the occasion of the reunion in May
next. The committee will leave for the
national capital in few days.
AS the time for holding the reunion
approaches the several committees are
becoming more active. The city is be-
ing canvassed by the committee on ho-
tells and accommodations and every
available room is being registered. A.
d. Langstaff, secretary of the commits
sary committee, a sub-organization of
the general committee in charge of
Confederate reunion ARRANGEMENTS has
been very active in the past week or
SO in the discharge of the duties as
signed to him. He is engaged in plan-
ming ways and means for caring for
the Confederate veterans when they
come to the reunion. Many of the
commands will very likely bivouack in
order to observe strict army regula-
tions and If this should prove true they
Will have to be cared for the same as IL
they were in actual service again, but
with more care for their comfort The
commissary committee is to look after
these matters. Mr.. Langstaff announces
that 1t is the purpose Of the commit
tee to have the means of caring for
every Confederate veteran whether he
is able to pay his own way or not,
and they will do so II it is possible.
They want it understood that the com
missary committee is not organized to
look only after those who are able to
pay their own way, but to look after
the rest as we'll.

Charles M. Hayes, the new presi-
dent of the Southern Pacific, held a
clerical position twelve years ago. To
day he receives $4,000 year, the
largest salary paid to any president of

principally through his tact in dealing
with subordinates and his wisdom
in bestowing praise for any work well

called upon a nearby farmer recently
and, after looking over his pension pa

Wits which cost him $3.50, stating that
he, the farmer, was not entitled to the
pension he was drawing but as he
found him to be a nice, responsible
man, if he would give him the $50
which the affidavits cost he would not
send them to the pension department.
His talk seemed SO plausible to the
farmer that he gave him So. so, when
he departed and went to a neighbor,
where he was attempting the same
game when the first farmers daughter
in-law came in upon him and accused
him of being fraud. He skipped in

with another man, telling the driver to
put the whip to the horses and get
away as fast as possible The woman
mistrusted the man and followed him

HEARS PARDON CASE.
Governor La Toilette Listens to Areu-
ments for MugeIey, Murderer.

Madison, June Is.
G.. A. A Magee and District Attor-
ney w. H. Bennett of Milwaukee were
closeted with Gov. La Toilette for two
hours yesterday afternoon presenting
arguments for and against the pardon
Of Virgil J. Muggley, life prisoner at
Waupun. Muggley was sentenced in
1891 by Judge Walber of Milwaukee to
life Imprisonment for the murder of
his wife in most revolving manner
in June of that year. Mr.. Magee re
viewed the case and the circum-
stances that led up to the murder and
made a strong plea for clemency. The
governor took the matter under con-
sideration and said he would review
the testimony taken at the trial be-
fore giving his decision.
