Collecting Sailors Corpse Rings

The Dublin Freemar's Journal calls
attention to a very novel and somewhat
grewsome development Of the collecting
fad A Ballyshancn gentleman has, it
states, made collection Of sailors
corpse rings" Seafaring men of most
nations pos ess in common the habit of
wearing thick silver ring on the little
finger These rings are engraved in
side with the owners name and port,
and serve to identify his body in the
event of death by drowning. The col
lection of ''corpse-rings' is fairly large
one, and every ring has, it is stated,
been obtained from the relations or
comrades of the drowned sailor. The
fad of a we'll known statesman no
longer living, for the collection of false
teeth is beaten in its singularity by this
nhase of the collecting fever.

Strange Superstition in Turkey.

Hanan, village on the borders Of
Anatolia, was the scene of a horrible
tragedy few days ago. There had
been an epidemic in the district for
some weeks, and, as its ravages ever be-
came greater, the villagers finally felt
satisfied that it was the work of sor-
cerers, and after thorough investiga-
ton, they arrested a man named Asian
and his sister, and openly charged then
with being the direct cause of the dis
ease. The two prisoners avowe1 their
innocence, but the mob insisted that
they had been heard using incantations
and other evil spells, and that their
sole object i'll doing SO was to invoke
an epidemic.
Without delay sentence was pronoun-
ced Asian was burned alive on an i'm
provised scaffold and his sister merci-
lessly tortured with red hot irons News
of the shocking crime was at once taken
to the local authorities and in few
hours the principal instigators were ar
rested 1t is not believed, however, that
this step will aid much toward the ex-
piration of superstitious ideas in Hanan.

WORTH MORE THAN SILVER.
Colorado's Fields of Alfalfa OF Greater
Value Than Her Mines.

Great as is the wealth Of the State of
Colorado in silver she has a far more
valuable product in the royal purple
alfalfa that supplies fodder for the in
Vulnerable herds that roam the plains
and feed in the valleys. Last year the
value of the alfalfa crop was placed at
100000, yet that does not represent
its contributory worth.
In 1892 the introduction O. this grass
into the State solved the problem of for
age, which up to that time had puzzled
the pioneers, who had not been able to
raise successfully any other form Of for
age. Alfalfa made possible the great
stock-growing industry of the State.
Last year the aggregate number Of hor-
ses, cattle, hogs and sheep, according
to assessors returns, was 4,ooo, 900, val
ued at S45 900. Excepting the range
sheep and cattle and some horses in the
cities, alfalfa formed the greater part of
the food of all these animals. Thus
dairying, new but rapidly developing
industry, depends on the alfalfa.

The Colorado farmers has learned that
rotating crops of wheat and alfalfa make
the average yield of wheat in Colorado
twenty-five bushels to the acre, while
the average for the whole country is less
than fourteen bushels. The same rota-
ton has produced the famous Greeley
potato, as inimitable in its way as the
Rocky Ford melon.
The Colorado stock raiser has discov-
cred that cattle may be fattened at home
without sending them to corn States,
and that alfalfa produces beef. not tai

Five Coolies Escape From

Plot to Release the Whole

Frustrated.

big plot to release the $50 Chinese
In the Mail Dock corral was frustrated
early yesterday morning. AS it was, Ave
of the coolie prisoners got away, while
another was caught in the act.
The matter had evidently been care
fully considered in and engineered from
Chinatown. A hole had been made in
the roof near the caves. Alongside the
hole was an escape pipe for the water
that falls during rains. This pipe ends
near the Brannan street sewer, and once
the Chinese got that far, escape was
easy. Half dozen hacks were in wait
ing among the lumber piles, and as soon
as man made the journey down the
water pipe, he was gathered in and
hustled away to Chinatown.
Almost every steamship that has ar
rived from the Orient during the last

for this port. Most of them land as ma

are held as having right to enter the

SUDDEN SQUALL

Timothy Lyons, a Boy,
the Victim Of Acct

Timothy Lyons, 10 years of age, who

street, between Greenwich and Lom-

AFTERNOON in view of hundreds of people
who were on the beach and saw the ac-

capped the same fate.
Lyons was an elevator boy at Calf

money and being fond of boating pur-

day he invited two of his friends, E.
Bowler, 1925 Filbert street, 20 years of

on the bay, and they accepted.
They sailed from the Buchanan-street
wharf about noon, and when about the
middle of the bay a squall struck the
boat and 1t was overturned. LYONS was
struck on the head by the poom ami
knocked senseless into the bottom OF
the boat, where he was held. Bowler and
Cunningham clung to the overturned
boat.
People on the beach and wharf saw the
accident, and T. J. Pierc, and Tony Dez

WOMAN is DRAGGED BY
RUNAWAY AT THE BEACH
Large Number of People Witness
Scene That Filled Them With
Terror


There was a startling scene enacted
yesterday afternoon at the ocean beach,
which was witnessed by many people.
A woman whose name could not be
learned was riding with man supposed
to be her husband in a cart drawn by a
big black steed. In front of the Seal Rock
resort to secure refreshments. Suddenly
the horse started on a wild run up the
steep road to the Cliff House.
The woman in her efforts to seize the
reins fell to the ground. In falling, how
ever, she managed to grasp the axle. She
held on with desperation and was drag
ged over the rough road until she re-
leased her hold and fell unconscious to
the ground.
A driver of a horse and buggy, seeing
her plight and evidently thinking the
woman had been driving alone, jumped
out of his buggy and seizing the pros
trate woman lifted her into his vehicle.
He then started his horse at breakneck
speed down the hill, holding the uncon-
scious woman in his buggy with one arm.
He raced his horse off in the direction of
the road leading into the park, with the
evident intention of carrying the unfOr-
tunate woman to some hospital or drug
store.
The supposed husband of the woman
did not learn of the mishap until he found
a young man bringing his horse and cart
toward the Seal Rock House. Jumping
into the cart he whipped up his steed and
started in pursuit of the well-meaning
citizen who was trying to aid the injured
woman. His horse was not very speedy,
so it is not yet known how or where the
incident terminated.
The woman is described as being be-
tween 25 and 80 years of age, while her
supposed husband was apparently several
years her senior.
