Lessons to Boxers.
BERLIN, JAM 39-A special dispatch
to the Cologne Volks Zeitung from China
relates horrible details of the warfare In
that country and says:
I'VE hope the awful conditions will
soon cease. The depravity and bestiality
also among our troops is enormously on
the increase. Large numbers of old
soldiers are sentenced to long terms in
the penitentiary and iail for murder, as
sault or burglary. Our losses are GER
tainly greater that way than by death.
Diseases. are still rampant, especially
.typhus. Dysentery is decreasing. During
November there were nine deaths from
disease in Pao-Ting-Fu alone and also
two from powder explosions. One maga-
zine containing 100000 pounds of powder
was blown up but only one man was
killed and three men were wounded /"

About Writing Ones Name.

People who sign their letters with
wild fourishes or initials only and give
no address offer one of the worst Of
compliments to their correspondent by
realistically assuming that their hand
writing must be of such familiar i'm
portance to him or that they and their
affairs are so present to his mind that
further Identification is unnecessary.
Having their signature cut from the
end of letter and the address from It's
heading pasted on the envelope which
incloses a reply is bad compliment
which many persons bring upon them
selves by an objectionable illegibility.
1t is a singular fact that accidental mis-
spelling or mispronunciation of ones
name generally constitutes greater
affront and Is provocative Of more an
noyance than q studied insult.-All the
Year Round.

CzoIgosz Pronounced Dead.
When it was turned off again DIR.
Macdonald stepped to the chair and
put his hand over the heart. He said
he felt no pulsation, but suggested that
the current be turned on for a few
seconds again. Once more the body
became rigid. At 7:15 the current was
turned off for good.
From the time CZolgosZ had left his
cell until the full penalty was paid
less than four minutes had elapsed.
The physicians present used the steth-
oscope and other tests to determine if
any life remained, and at 7:17 the
warden, raising his hand, announced:
Gentlemen, the prisoner is dead"
The witnesses filed from the cham
Der, many of them visibly affected, and
the body was taken from the chair
and laid on the operating table.
Rev. Cordello Herrick, chaplain Of
the prison, was in the death chamber,
ready for any call that might be made
for his services. He was not wanted
by the prisoner, however. and sat quiet
~ in the rear of the chamber through
out the execution. The clothing and
personal effects of the prisoner were

Corpse Covered with Acid.
After the autopsy, which revealed
the brain as normal, or above normal,
the body was placed in a black-stained
pine coffin, every portion of the anat-
omy being replaced under the supervi-
sion of Dr. Germ and Warden Mead.
Shortly afterward it was taken to the
prison cemetery and an extraordinary
precaution taken to completely destroy
it. Accordingly, carboy of acid was
obtained and poured upon the body in
the coffin after it had been lowered
into the grave. Straw was used in
the cour corners of the grave as the
earth was put in to give vent to such
gases as might form. 1t is the belief
of the physicians that the body will be
entirely disintegrated within twelve
hours. During that time and as long
as deemed necessary a guard will be
kept over the unmarked grave.

How Old Spiders Live.

Old spiders, which have neither web
nor the materials to make one, often
hunt about to find out the webs of 9TH
er spiders, younger and weaker than
themselves, with whom they venture
battle. The invader generally succeeds,
and the younger spider is driven out to
make a new web, and the old spider re-
mains in possession until stronger
spider invades the web and drives it
out. When thus dispossessed, the spi-
der seldom ventures another attack, but
tries to subsist upon the few insects
that may fall accidentally into it's
clutches and eventually dies of hunger.
