WOMAN VICTIM OF r1OB.
Negro Accused of Purloining Money
fleets Horrible Death.

A dispatch Nashville. from Tenn,
says: Baltic Brutchfeld, negro wo-
man, was lynched by unknown men
Friday night, the only cause being
that she was suspected OF having taken
the money out of pocketbook which
was lost recently by neighbor.
The pocketbook had come into pos
session of the woman's brother and q
mob undertook to lynch him several
nights ago, but he broke away and es-
capped in the darkness. Friday night
the men visited the woman, and after
tying her hands behind her. took her
to the bridge over Lick creek. Here
she was shot through the head and her
lifeless body thrown into the stream,
from which it was recovered Saturday.
The coroner returned the usual ver-
dict of death at the hands of unknown
parties. The amount Of money in the
pocketbook was $120.

BONI AVENGED.
Count CasteiIane Fights a Duel
With Editor Roday's and
COmesOut Victor.

A paris dispatch says: In the duel
fought Saturday between Count Bonn
de Castellane and M. de Rodays, the
latter was woun ded in the thigh.
M. de Rodays, whose wound was III
the lower feshy part of the thigh, bIed
abundantly, but he is not seriously in
jured.
The determination to exclude the
curious from witnessing the duel was
well kept. Only the witnesses and
the necessary attendants were specta-
tors of the meeting, SO zealously was
secrecy maintained in regard to the
meeting place.
Count de Dion having measured
off twenty-five PAGES, requested NJ.
de Rodays and Count Boni to take
their allotted places. Both principals
were dressed in black frock coats.
The usual words of warning and eI-
plantations were given, the Count de
Dion counted three and then said
Fire"
Scarcely had the word been uttered
than M. de Rodays was seen to totter
and fall.
The witnesses hastened to his side,
and were obliged to carry him to one
of the dressing rooms, where the
doctor gave him immediate care.
Count Boni, after inquiring into the
character of the wound, left the spot,
accompanied by his witnesses. Shortly
afterwards M. de Rodays was taken
to his residence in carriage.
The doctor said M. de Roday' s
wound is not of disquieting nature,
and that, though the bullet had not
yet been extracted, M. de Rodays will
be well in ten days. Count Boni was
not touched.
The duel was carried out with the
utmost correctness, and every step of
the proceedings was marked by abso-
lutte calmness and courtesy on both
sides, which, if anything, enhanced
its dramatic effect.

THE DUTY OF MOTHERS.

What suffering frequently results
from a mothers ignorance or more
frequently from a mothers neglect to
properly instruct her daughterl
Tradition says woman must suf-
fer, and young women are so taught.
There is little truth and great deal
of exaggeration in this. If young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment, and her mother should see
that she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to physician for examina-
ton but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself to Mrs. Pinkham and secure

WAR is STILL ON.
Armistice Between Lord Kitchener
And General Botha Seems to
Be Ineffective.

A dispatch from Lord Kitchener, is
sued at London Friday morning, is so
studiously silent upon the subject of
the peace negotiations that it leads to
the conclusion that nothing has yet
been accomplished of a sufficiently
definite character to justify lending
official support to the view that the
war is over. Nor do General French's
movements indicate a cessation of hos
tilities, although possibly, as no date
is given, his captures We're made pre-
vious to the granting of the armistice.
Lord Kitchener's dispatch, which is
dated at Pretoria, reports as follows:
"Dewet has reached Senekal on his
northward progress.
"French, in addition to his previous
successes, reports forty-six Beers kill
ed or. wounded, 146 taken pris-
oners and surrendered, with 200 rifles,
3,700 rounds of ammunition, 2.400
horses, $500 cattle and 400 wagons
and carts, besides mules and trek
oxen.
"Methuen has arrived at Warrenton
from Klerksdorp, bringing in prison
oners and cattle.
"The weather is wet, delaying the
movements of the columns.
A dispatch from Pretoria, after not
ing General Dewet's arrival at Senekal,
Orange River Colony, says that though
he has only small following, Dewet
is nearing a district where he is likely
to receive considerable reinforcements
and probably intends to pick up row
ing bands of republicans who are ever
present in the Dornberg and Koranna
districts.
General French, the dispatch adds,
had been detained by swollen drifts in
the Pet Retief district, but is now
able to move again.
Dispatches from Bloemfontein, Or
ange River Colony, state that prison
ers who have lately been released by
General Dewet say they think he is a
mailman. They aver that the terrible
fatigue he has undergone, his ankle
ties and the intensity of his feelings
have unhinged his mind. Apart from
this view of General Dewet's mental
state some of his peculiarities are
that he rarely sleeps within the bounds
of the camp He seeks his rest out
side, with few trusted followers.
Thus, the orderlies of his subordinate
commanders are frequently unable to
find him to receive orders. His secre-
cy is extreme. He absolutely imparts
his plans to no one.
General Dewet repudiates the peace
negotiations which are going on. He
has declared openly to the men under
his command that no terms except in
dependence will satisfy him. A recent
utterance attributed to General Dewet
is that after the British he hated the
Transvaalers.
The whereabouts of General Dewet
during the last two or three days is
unknown, nor is it known whether
President Steyn is with him.

FUEL FROM SAWDUST
Austrian Firm Makes a Profitable BUSH
ness of 1t.

The increasing scarcity and dearness
of the ordinary kinds Of fuel are lead
ing European manufacturers to the
consideration of various new products
and ordinations which may serve in
place of coal and wood. The Ameri-
can consul at Coburg reports that saw
dust is being used extensively in that
country for fuel purposes. The saw
dust is impregnated with a mixture
of tar and heated to the proper tenn
perature. 1t is then passed over a
plate of iron heated by steam from
which screw conYeyor takes it to
press, where it is made into bricks of
the required size. One American fam
lily produced last year over 1000 900
of these bricks, costing about Is cents
q thousand, and selling at from 50
cents to 81. This suggests the ques-
ton why the dust turned out in such
vast quantities by the great sawmills
of our numbering regions, most of
which now goes to waste, might not
be converted into a salable product
for both domestic and foreign use. If
compressed into hard bricks. as in the
American process, the difficulty OF
transportation raised by the bulkiness
of the sawdust would be largely elimi-
mated.
