Beauty at Middle Age.
From Leslie's Weekly.

The woman of forty or whereabouts
whose great aim in life is to preserve her
figure and her complexion, not only pays
strictest attention to her bath, gymnas-
tics and massage. but she is more care
full as to what she eats than any old Ro-
man gladiator. One society woman, who
at forty-five is famous for her good looks
and general attractive and youthful ap-
pearance, never puts a bit of bread in
her mouth; it might be rank poison, for
the scant civility it receives at her
hands. Nor does a sweet of any kind,
sort or description ever pass her lip, nor
an ice. nor coffee, nor chocolate. What
does she eat? Beef, mutton, and all veg
etables that grow above ground, but of
these she eats only sparingly. so fearful
is miIady of embonpoint, that foe to
Youthful appearance.

William W., the Champion was deprived
of his hereditary right 1t has been main
tanned by some, and custom seems to be
with the contenders, that the Champion
was really present at Westminster Hall
on the occasion of the coronation OF
William and of Victoria, ready to fight
any who might challenge the right of the
monarch to the crown. No act of Parli-
ment has been discovered relieving the
Champion Of the office, and 1t is certain
that the estate title, and emoluments
would be lost should he fail to perform
the duties which constituted the terms of
tenure.
Should Edward VII. make a banquet
part of his coronation ceremanial. then
Frank Seaman Dymoke will have to
clothe himself in steel armor. mount
white horse, and ride up to the door Of
Westminster Hall to throw down his
glove in challenge to all or any who
might wish to maintain that Edward was
not the rightful monarch OF the realm.
Should some Jacobite, a firm believer IN
hereditary right, care to accept the chal-
lenqe and declare that Edward Is not
monarch by lineal right. then Dymoke
must fight or forfeit the estate and title.
II IS uncertain whether the challenge
was ever accepted or not Miss Strick-

MORE TALK OF PEACE.
Strike Leaders Are Willing to Make
Certain Concessions.
What These Terms Are and the
Mode of Their Presentation,
Are at Present Carefully
Guarded Secrets.

Pittsburg, Aug. 26.-In furtherance
of the peace" programme which is
said to have been in the course of
preparation for several days, it was
given out Sunday by one on the inside
and one who should know that the
amalgamated executives have con
sented to have certain propositions
made to the officials of the steel cor
pOration through members of the con-
ciliatOry committee of the National
Civic Federation, which proposals are
expected to bring about a settlement
of the great strike. Those interested
in the matter were in waiting all day
Sunday for word to proceed with the
programme as outlined at the confer
ence of the amalgamated executives
and the cOnciliatory committee OF tic
Civic Federation last Friday. The
propositions which are to be taken to
New York carry certain concess' Cns
by the amalgamated officials which it
is hoped will pave the way for the re-
opening of the direct negotiations be-
tween the association and the com
pany. The proposition carries much
of the terms under which President
Shaffer and his advisors stand willing
to settle. What those terms are ana
the mode of their presentation are
carefully guarded secrets. There is
alone the implication that they con-
tain concessions of such Importance
that those in interest expect the cor
Poration to drop its adverse attitude
and reopen negotiations.
While the conferees we're discussing
peace plans the amalgamated men
were shown the impracticability of
sympathetic strikes by the miners
and other organized men affiliated
with the American Federation of La
Dor.
The action of President Shatfer in
abrogating the wage contracts with
the Federal Steel Co., covering its
western mills, and in other instances
was questioned. Messrs. Mitchell,
White and jerks spoke n! the inn
portance of strict observance of wage
agreements as contracts by the labor
unions.
President Shaffer maintained his po-
sition to the satisfaction of most Of
the conferees.
1t has been reported that the con-
ferees disapproved the move in abro-
eating the Federal Steel Co. contracts,
and told President Shaffer so with
unmistakable emphasis.

New York, Aug. 23.-Dr. A. ]. Re
strepo, diplomatic agent of the lib
eral party now attempting to take
possession of the government in Co
lombia, received a dispatch Thursday
from the liberal agent at Quito re-
garding the recently reported battle
between the government, or clerical,
forces at Paste. The dispatch was as
follows:
Quito, Aug. 2O.-The expected bat
tie near Paste was fought on Satur-
day, the 18th, and the liberal gener-
ais, Lergio Perez and A. Rosas, won a
great triumph over the clericals.
Through his secretary, DIR. Restre-
pc explained that Paste, where the
battle was reported to have been
fought, was in the extreme southern
part of Colombia, 1000 miles from
where Gen. Uribe-Uribe was operat-
ing, and that it indicated successful
execution of the plans of campaign
mapped out by Uribe-Uribe and for
warded to the commanding officers of
the other liberal forces before the
general left New York early in the
summer.

He PAID THE PENALTY.
Henry Noles, of Winchester, Tenn. ,
Burned at the Stake.
NOles EmPhaticaIIy Stated That
There Was No One Implicated
in the Deed But Himself.
The Mob Was Orderly.

Chattanooga, Tenn, Aug. &c.
Henry Noles, the Negro who Grim
inally assaulted and shot to death
Mrs. Charles Williams, wife of prom
inent farmer near Winchester, Tenn,
last Friday, was captured early Sum
day morning at water tank, near
Cowan, Tenn. He was taken to Win
chester by his captors and placed in
the county Jail. Sheriff Stewart made
haste to barricade the jail and pro-
tcct the prisoner. Soon an angry
mob of several hundred men gather
ed, but Assistant Attorney General
Matt n. Whitaker appeared and
made a speech to the crowd. He APP
pealed to them to assist HIM in al
laying excitement and unfolding the
majesty of the law. This appeal was
supplemented by Judge ]. ]. Lynch,
Capt. w. P. FOLEY, Jesse NJ. Little
ton, Foster Ramsey and others.
No sooner had their appeals been
made than several hundred citizens
from the neighborhood where the
crime was committed came up and
augmented the crowd to thousands.
They swept forward upon the Jail,
overpowered the sheriff and his dep
uties took the prisoner and started
for the scene of the crime, IL miles
distant, at 1918 a. m.
The mob was orderly but deter
mined. 1t seemed that the whole pop.
ulation for miles around had turned
out to see the fate of the wretch. A
procession three miles in length fol-
lowed the mob to the Williams home.
Arriving at a point in sight of the
scene of the crime, the Negro was
placed upon a stump and given a
chance to make a statement.
He mounted the stump stolidly, and
laughed as he began his statement.
He said:
Tell all my sisters and brothers to
meet me in glory. I am going to make
that my home. Tell my mother to
meet me where parting will be no
more.''
He was then asked as to whether
any one else was implicated in the
crime. Noles stated emphatically
there was no one implicated but him
self.
"Why did you kill Mrs. Williams -
was asked.
81 just done that because 1 had
nothing else to do.''

BURNED BY MOB.
Small Grocery store and Dwelling
Occupied By Miles Brooks, Col
Ored, Destroyed.

Birmingham, Ala, Aug. pa small
grocery store and dwelling at Thomp-
son Springs, eight miles from Bir-
mingham, occupied by Miles Brooks,
a Negro, was burned by mob Sun
day morning. Brooks is alleged to
have written an improper letter to
Mrs. Cutcliff, a white woman, who
had occasionally patronized his store.
Daniel Cutcliff, the woman's hus-
band, searched for the Negro for two
days. The store and dwelling were
both closed during that time, and
Sunday a crowd of men who had
joined in the search burned the dwell
ing and store. Twenty shots were
fired into the building, but the Negro
had left the house and no one was
hurt.

TURKEYS BAcK-DowN.
French Papera Hail the SuItan'a
Yielding as a Great Triumph.
for France.

London, Aug. 26.-Although the
French papers hail Turkeys yielding
as a great triumph for France, more
especially as it was largely believed
that the sultan's obduracy was due
to the supposed friendsip between
Germany and Turkey, it is felt in
London, despite considerable salts
faction over the outcome, that there
is a grave doubt as to whether
France has achieved more than a.
paper victory.
The British theory is that NJ. Con-
STAINS really wished to force Turkey
to purchase quays which are notori'
ously unremunerative. The sultan
has avoided this, thus securing the
practical results, while leaving to NJ,
Constans the empty congratulations.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Aug. 26.-Min-
neapolis experienced a fierce rain,
wind, and hail storm Sunday evening,
which did much damage to property
in the city and vicinity. No one was
hurt. In the business section of the
city large plate glass windows were
smashed and the street car system
was demoralized for three hours by
crossed wires. At one of the great
northern elevators the heavy cupola
was blown from the building, smash
ing the house nearby, the residents
narrowly escaping injury. In many
residence sections all the windows in
the houses were blown out.

New York, Aug. 24.-Vice President
Roosevelt's youngest child Quintin,
4 years old, is now in Roosevelt hos
pital, as well as his sister Alice. The
boy was operated upon by DR.. George

that he will be well in a reasonable
length of time. Miss Alice Roosevelt,
the vice presidents oldest child, was
operated upon a week ago Thursday.
Col. Roosevelt and wife secured pri-
vate apartment in the hospital for
themselves so they could watch the
progress of their daughter and they
will continue to keep the room while
their boy is i'll.

BURNED UP BY DROUGHT.
in ZacaPata county, Texas,
Except Cactus Plants.

San Antonio, Tex, Aug. 26-Re-
ports Sunday from Zacapata county.
confirm the news that the poorer
classes there are facing starvation.
They must have immediate help in
the way of food or the results will
be terrible. Range water has failed.
and cattle are too weak to travel,
and are dying rapidly. The country
is literally burned up by drought.
There is not a green thing to be
seen except cactus plants. Zacapata
county is so miles from the nearest
railroad station, and whatever in the
way of foods that is sent to the
farmers in the famine-stricken place
must be hauled from Loredo, a two.
days trip at best.
