TO SEE DYING PARENTS.
Life Prisoner Paroled TOT Ten Days So
 That He Might Visit His Parents.

Indianapolis, Aug William E. the young Methodist minis ter who is serving a life sentence in the Michigan City state prison, has been paroled for a period of 10 days by Governor Durbin, and is now i'll his old home i'll Winchester by the bedside of his invalid father anu mother, neither of whom is expected to live. The parole was issued at the instance of several prominent citizens of northern Indiana, who asked what may prove the dying request of his parents may be gratified- that is, that they might see him in the old home once more before they died
 Although the record of MT Hinshaw in the prison has been an excellent one and his former clerical character might seem to justify confidence in him, the parole was issued only upon condition that a prison guard should accompany him, sleep in the room with him. be at the table with him when he eats and have him constant ly under his eye.
 The parole was issued upon this condition and Hinshaw and his guard left the prison on Saturday night and are now in Winchester, but the execu- tive office tried to keep the matter a secret till to-day. when the facts came out

ANSWERS KITCHENER.
Latest Proclamation a Black Crime
 Against Boers.

Against Boers.
 London, Aug 27.-The Daly Tele- graph publishes a long interview with MT Kruger, at Hilversmum. on Lord Kitchener's proclamation. MT Kruger contended that Lord Kitchener's pro- clamation itself recognized that the Boers had regular administration and an army. The proclamation could have but one effect-to embiter and in- tensify resistance. He said the ques- ton whether any protest against 1t would be issued was still under consid- eration, but this matter was of little import to the burghers, who did not look to Europe for approval, blame or instructions.
 Having characterized the proclama- tions as .'thc blackest crime committed against the Boers,'' MT Kruger closes the interview by solemnly calling heaven to witness that the story of q Dutch conspiracy against the British was an abominable lie-"the most mis- chievous and diabolical lie ever coined since man first appeared in the world" ]"
 He said, however, that peace was still possible on the basis of give and take. and that the Boers were ready to make reasonable sacrifices and to give satisfactory guarantees on the basis of independence and free pardon to colonial Afrikanders.

LOSES HAND FROM cLAM's BITE
Society Woman Meets Misfortune
 Along Connecticut's Shore.

New Haven, Aug 27.-Mrs George Cook. society woman of Toledo, has lost hand because she wanted to dig clans too badly to wait till she learned the proper method. When she arrived ill Madison last Saturday she said she had never seen the shore before and that she wanted to dig clans at once for her first meal at the seaside. She ran out with a basket and used her hand to feel around in the sand for the clans. The first one she felt resented her touch and bit her. It closed its shell on Mrs Cooks hand and she struggled in vain to release herself. When she finally tore away her hand it was bleeding from several ugly wounds. Blood poisoning immediately set in, and Mrs Cooks hand was ann putated yesterday. 1t is possible that she may lose her entire arm, as the poisoning appears to be rapidly spread ing. Mrs Cook is visiting her sister, Mr George Tompkins. who is staying ill the Reta cottage.

CONNECTICUT EAGLES.
Two of Them Industriously Robbing Fish Hawks Down the River.

Two of Them Industriously Robbing
 Fish Hawks Down the River.
 At the Taylor estate near the Con- necticut river at Cobalt pair of bald headed eagles nestled this summer and reared their young. Any day they may be seen flying about and MT Tay- Tor has given positive instructions that the birds be not molested in any way. Eagles may be noble appearing birds, but they are simply robbers ill gather ing their food. This can be testified to by those who have watched the eagles systematically rob the fish hawks of their rightful prey this sum- mer. The eagles keep their eye peeled as the fish hawk plunges after a fish. Then after it has arisen from the wa ter the birds that are supposed to rep resent freedom and liberty, overhaul the hawk, frightening it1so that in the majority of cases it drops the fish, whichtisl eagerly caughtnby the eagles.
 But tile other day the eagles were foiled and man instead of eagle feast ed on fish. 1t happened on Friday at that, properly designated as fish day." The same tactics were being employed by the birds as before and after the hawk had been robbed the eagle which had stolen the fish be- came so rattled by repeated shouting that he dropped his prey, a yellow perch that weighed over a pound.

It is question | of much dispute as to which is the better as both are such very fine play CTS. Since Jesse Devine has accepted a position at Plume & Atwood's, Ar | thur Mcdonald appears to have clear claim to the title of the best player. | "A well known Waterbury consta- l ble from this district familiarly called l Eddie" by his friends. tied up the en- l tire trolley system of New Haven q few days ago. The constable and a | few friends were making tour of the l summer resorts i'll the suburbs of the Elm city and was en route to Bridge port, having satisfied himself that baby shows at Savin Rock brought out some of the finest politicians-to-be that can be found in the present century. He was scratching his wise head to placate the tumult of thought that was going on within when his hat flew off. Immediately he demanded the conductor to stop the car and the con ductor refusing the constable jumped off and held up the whole business There was nothing left the conductor and motor man to do but search for the hat. Some of the passengers joined in the inquiry and people from Wood mont, Woody Crest, Rocky Beach and the Colonial Inn and other stations on the line hoping to get to their destina tions some time in the day by giving a helping hand and eye. also joined ill but it was half an hour before the hat was found and during that time the entire system of electric communi- cation between New Haven and Wood

SHARK NABs A PRIZE BASS.
Remarkable Catch of Two Fishermen
 In the Sound Near Stamford.


 Stamford, Conn, Aug 27.-The neigh boring waters of Long Island Sound contain fish of large proportions. This fact was demonstrated when Edward Brown of New York and John Kyle, the pilot, went fishing Sunday ill Wes- cott's Cove fNr Brown hooked q big bass. It took long, time to tire the fish, but he was finally brought to the. boat ready for Ryle's gafr. Kyle plant ed the gaff and was about to draw the prize aboard, when a shark turned under the boat and grabbed the bass. Both men hung to the prize and pull it away from the shark, but not until the sharp teeth of the bigger fish had split the bass it's entire length. The bass weighed thirteen pounds. The shark, deprived of the bass, dashed about for several minutes. as if eager to get at the men, who were much re- lieved when the big fish finally swan away.
