Life.

The poets exclamation: 30 Lifei feel
thee bounding in my veins" is joyous
one. Persons that can rarely or never
make it. in honesty to themselves, are
among the most unfortunate. They do
not hVe. but exist for to H0e implies
more than TO be. To live is TO be well
and strong-to arise feeling equal TO the
ordinary duties of the day, and to retire
not overcome by them-to feel life bound
ing in the veins. A medicine that has
made thousands of people, men and wo-
men, we'll and strong, has accomplished
a great work, bestowing the richest bless
ings, and that medicine is Hoods Sarsa-
parila. The weak, rundown, or debili-
tated, from any cause, should not fail to
take it, 1t builds up the whole system,
changes existence into life, and makes
life more Astounding. We are glad to
say these words in its favor to the readers
of our columns.

SLOT MACHINE PIE.
New Automatic Device which Ia
Quite Popular with HRbitues of
Chicago Saloons.

"Drop a nickel in the slot and get a
piece of pie like mother used to make"
This is the legend that greets the
eye in many a Chicago saloon, showing
the latest development of the slot ma
chine craze. Somehow there is some
thing in the invitation that appeals to
the average man. and the machines are
kept busy grinding out pies. To prove
that the fye-cent pie is not metamor-
phosed into a succulent bit of pastry,
there is an arrangement whereby the
money is automatically returned to
the patron in case the supply of pies
is exhausted.
The first machine to be placed on the
market appeared a few days ago in

Sourland mountains. True to instinct
the animal suddenly turned and re-
traced its course, leading the dogs
back toward Trenton.
In swinging round, Reynard was
forced to invade the golf links of the
Trenton Country club. A party of
golfers were playing there and they
heard the baying of the hounds.
Miss Wakeman. who CHANGED to be
leading the players, was prepa-ing TO
lift her ball over a bunker, when the
fox leaped over the mound and on
towards the young woman's feet. Her
club was poised, and as the fox was
so near she changed the course of her
blow and aimed at the animals head.
The end of the stick caught. Reynard
squarely between the eyes, and he
rolled over as dead as though he had
been shot through the heart.
The hunters were on the scene in n
few minutes, and before Miss Wake
man quite recovered from the excite
INIT of the episode she had received
the congratulations of the whole
party. As a reward for her achieve
ment she was given the foX's pelt.
In describing the adventure later
Miss Wakeman said:
81 had my mind on getting my golf
ball out of trouble, and when the fox
appeared my first thought was that
the animal would bite me if 1 didn't hit
it.
81 took no time to think about it.
simply struck at the fox's head, and
the blow that the ball might have re-
ceived fell on the fox's head. 1t was a
harmless little creature after all, and
I'm sorry that it came in my way"

The Day of the Automobile.

In an automobile race over the
Coney Island boulevard last Saturday
three of the chauffeurs made mile IN
less than a minute. Henri Fournier,
the French professional, rode the mile
in 81 4-5 seconds: and two amateurs
made the same distance in 81 2-5 and
56 2-5 seconds, respectively. These
feats we're performed in racing, of
course, but their demonstration of
what can be done with these machines
is so complete that their future seems
assured. The use Of automobiles would
work revolution in city streets by
banishing the horses, which not only
take up great deal of much-needed
space. but keep tie streets unclean
in spite of regiments of sweepers. The
day of the horseless vehicle is evident
iv coming. and with it there will be
all sorts of economies and conyeniences
aside from saving the feeding and the
care of the horses that now furnish SO
much of everyday motor power.
When the automobile is produced at
the same reduction of cost as the sew
ing machine and the bicycle have
shown, they will come into general
use. even if they should cease to be
plavthings for the rich, though that is
scarcely likely. It will be another
step in the progress of the world that
puts the luxuries of one age among
the necessaries and everyday con-
veniences of the next. May it come
speedilc.

JUDGE KALI ENFORGES ORDER.
Backed by Soldiers He Moves Strik-
ing hliners---Gaptured Men in Jail.

Madisonville, KY, Nov. 24.--The
camn Of the striking union miners a
quarter OF mile from Nortonvllle, IN
the southeast part of the county. was
marched upon today by County Judge
Hall. Sheriff J. H. Hankins and two
deputies, &dit. Gen. Murray and his
aides. Capts. Ellis and Gordon, ard
two companies of the State guard. the
Madisonville company commanded by
Can't. Powers, and the Hopkinsville
company, under Capt. Strang.
OF the 20C men that had been in
camp. defving the order of County
Judge Hall to move, only 25 remained
when the officers and the militia de-
scended upon their STRONGHOLD MosJ
of these were taken prisoner, though
a few escaped.
Four large tents and all the camp
paraphernaIa, except the arms and
ammunition which had been removed
before the officers appeared, were con
fscated and were loaded on q freight
car brought along for the purpose and
brought to Madisonville.
Tie captured strikers are now in jail
here, charged with a breach of the
peace. s.unlawfully assembling and
banding together, thereby making the
camp menace to the public peace. y
The move against the camp followed
the refusal of the striking union
miners to break camp after an order
commanding them to do so had been
issued by County Judge Ball, who
commanded that the union camp at
Nortonviile be disbanded by aybreak
Saturday and that the campers assem-
BILE no more in TIE county.
Judge Hall issued the disbandlng
order after receiving sworn statements
from more than 100 reliable men
residing in the southern portion Of
his county, who swore that armed men
went forth from these camps and were
responsible for the nightly attacks on
the mines and property and homes OF
those who were peaceable, law abiding
and Woodworking citizens and that
the union camp is an unlawful assem-
blv of men banded together for the
purpose of destroying property and
intimidating men who persist in work
ing independent of the United Mine
Workers of America. who have had
representatives of their organization
in Horkins county for more than a
wear irving to persuade and force the
miners employed in tie mines to JOIN
their organizations.

Is 1t a Sin to Play Chess?

Chess, which of all games has been
considered intellectual and scientific,
has come in for rap in Plttsburg,
where the mission committee of the
Methodist Church has been in ses-
sion. The average man votes chess a
bore, but to some minds it is peculiar
ly attractive. Alexander q. Stephens
was man who liked chess, and as
he spent long life in public Office
and was counted an honest man, and
as he gave all his earnings to the
poor and deserving, he was considered
a pretty good type of Christian,
whether he was member of church
or not. No one in Georgia was ever
beard to censure him for the occasional
evening which he spent in a quiet
game of chess.
But they look at things differently
at Pittsburg. Among those who were
drawn to Pittsburg by the meeting
of the Methodist committee was Blsh-
op James N. Fitzgerald. There were
a dozen other high church dignitaries
in the City of Smoke, which is said
to resemble Hades with the lid OF,
but they all behaved themselves ex-
cept the bishop.
Bishop Fitzgerald INDUCED in few
games of chess with prominent Pitts
burgers and the fact became known.
Persons who did not know the differ
ence between chess and poker. and who
did not know pawn from crap
game, were shocked. They showed it
in their faces and spoke their senti-
ments in tones loud enough to be
beard. They must have thought the
bishop had been roped into a gamb,,
ling joint, for some of them compared
chess to poker and other vile games
designed by the Evil One.
When the bishop heard of these ad-
verse comments on his represensloie
conduct he put the wicked game aside
but he must have drawn very deep
sigh and to have thought some, unut-
terable thoughts about that time

WATTS CASE SETTLED.
An Order Will be Asked for---The
Judgment to be Paid.

Columbia, Nov. ga settlement
Of the celebrated Watts case has been
agreed upon, and today Mr.. ". H.
Lyles will in the supreme court move
to have the case remanded to the
circuit court in order that judgment
may be marked satisfied. This is a
case which excited much feeling at the
time it was in transit from court to
court.
George W. Watts, a young white
man, alleged that he fell into a deep
cut on the Seaboard's lire in this
city. He was found at the foot Of
the cut in a pretty bad condition.
There was some difference in the evi-
dence of the physicians, some claim
ing that his back was hurt by the fall,
others declaring that he had Potts
disease Of the spine, an incurable
malady. However, the jury gave a
verdict for $500 out of the $4,000
sued for. The suit was brought
against the South Bound Railroad
company.
The question of fact having in this
way been settled by the jury, Watts
attorneys, Messrs. G. Duncan Bellin-
ger, Jno. P. Thomas, Jr., and 2. Il.
Nelson. endeavored to collect the judg-
ment. Failing to do so, they evi-
denced an intention to levy on the
property of the South Bound Railroad
company, but found that that COM
pany had no property. Therefore
Watts attorneys moved for a receiver
to be appointed for the South Bound,
as5it was insolvent. They also prayed
for order restraining the South
Bounds interests from being taken up
by foreign corporations. The matter
was heard by Judge Gage who appoint
ed Mr.. VIM. D. Melton receiver for
the South Bound railroad. Mr.. Lyles
then appeared before Chief JUS
tice McIver and had Judge
Cages order stayed until the
whole matter of receivership
could be brought before the supreme
court. Judge McIver granted the stay,
and the matter has been in statu quo
until few days ago when the judg-
ment was bought by Mr.. ". G.
Childs. Mr.. Lyles decided to discon-
tinue the fight against the Judgment,
and he asked Judge Watts to let the
matter be settled and the judgment
marked satisfied. The latter suggest
ed that as the case is in the supreme
court, that tribunal must remand it to
the circuit court before it can be
recorded as paid. There is still some
little disagreeing as to costs, etc., but
the whole business will be wound up
today.
This practically settles the policy Of
the Seaboard in regard to paying
judgments found against the South
Bound, which is that part Of the Sea
board from Camden, S. c., to a point
on the Georgia State line near Savan-
nah

dual MURDER.
Robert Williams Shoots His Wife
and Kills His Father-in-LaW.

Marietta, O., Nov. 25.-A dual MUIR
der under most distressing circum
stances took place near here yesterday.
Three miles north of Beverley, this
county, near the little postofflce OF
Hackney, Robert Wilkin, a prosperous
farmer lived with his wife and child:
All day Sunday Wilkin remained
around home and much Of the time
was put in drinking hard cider. BY
evening he was ready for any kind OF
trouble. His little son came into
the house and was seized by the
drunken man, who beat him terribly
with board. The wife and mother
protested at such treatment and Wllkln
threatened to kill her if she did not
90 awav and keep quiet. With a rush
the mother caught her little one in her
arms and started for the home OF her
father. Jacob Stokes, who lived but
short distance down the road. Nilkln
caught up a gun and followed the flee
inc woman. shooting after her as she
ran. Mr. and Mrs. Stokes heard the
noise and came out to the front porch
to see what toe trouble was. Nllkln
saw them, and pointing the gun at
them fired. The charge struck Mr..
Stokes in the side Of the head and he
staggered to the side of the porch.
Mrs. Stokes was shot in the face and
her nose and ears were shot otl.
Stokes managed to stagger through
the door, close and lock it. Wilkin
then shot the lock off and rushed into
the house. screaming like mad man.
He was met by an Is year old son OF
Stokes, and aimed his gun at the lad
with murderous intent. Young Stokes
secured a gun ard fired the charge into
Wilkins head. blowing out his brains,
killing him instantly. When the man
lay dead on the floor young Stokes
came to town and told of TIE tragedy,
Offering to give himself up Rescners
went to the house and the injured
were cared for. Young Stokes is being
applauded for his act and has not been
arrested. The elder Mr.. Stokes will
die before morning and Mrs. Stokes is
dangerously i'll from the result of the
shock. The Stokes family is very
prominent and wealthy.
