A MODERN DAMON AND PYTHIAS.

Frank King of Lincoln, Ill.,,
stole a horse some time ago, and
Andrew Carmody was sent to the
penitentiary for the offense. The
two men were friends. A few
days since King came forward and
confessed his guilt, and a special
session of the grand jury will be
called to indict him and enable
him to plead to the charge. AS
soon as this can be done King
will be released.
CATFISH CHARLEY" DEAD.
Charles Smith, better known as
Catfish Charley" a man who
might have been almost anything
in the musical world had he wanted
to, died at St. Joseph's hospital at
Sioux City, Iowa, Thursday last
of acute alcoholism. He held his
violin in his arms when he died.
Twenty years ago Charles Smith
was pointed to as one sure to be a
national violinist. He started his
career by winning $1,000 prize
at Sioux Falls, and then played in
all surrounding states to big houses.
He drifted to Colorado, and his
passion for drink soon led him to
playing in saloons and resorts.
He came back to Sioux City seven
years ago a total wreck. Since
that time he has simply existed in
a hut, eking out living by fishing
and playing, and his happiest
moments we're when he was
hugging his old brown violin under
his ragged coat as though it were
a living thing. His sister, a resi-
dent of Sergeant Bluff, cared for
him in his last years and smoothed
his brow at death.

WOULD KILL EN- OFF.

Professor II. II. Powers of
Cornell university is in favor of
killing off the weak in this world,
in order to make more room for
the strong to expand. A few days
ago he startled his class in political
principles by the following state
ment:
I am strongly in favor of killing
off the weak in society for the
benefit of the strong. Kill off the
feeble minded and those who are a
burden to the rest Of society as you
would kill off so many rattlesnakes;
not because we hate them, but
because they are troublesome to
have around. [ believe the time
will come when society will see the
benefit of discriminating the weak
by artificial means.

THE KING HAS A CANCER.
King Edward is suffering from a
cancer. Despite the secrecy of his
physicians and those surrounding
him, the news that he is sufferer
from the fatal disease which killed
Gen. Grant, has leaked out. The
British daily press has remained
silent on the subject, as it is OF
such vital Importance to the empire,
but Reynolds weekly, a London
publication, declares that three
operations have been performed
on the kings throat since his
accession to the throne. The last
operation occurred last week.
Assistance was hastily sum-
moned," says this journal, ''as his
majesty was breathing with diff
Guilty, and an immediate operation
was performed. But it was re-
garded as only temporary relief,
the injured epithelium now having
become a cancerous growth, and
serious developments are ex-
pected.''
THEY EAT MOTH BALLS.
Thirty of the goods of Lawrence
university, Appleton, Wis, have
contracted the habit of eating moth
balls, and the faculty is much dis
turbed over it. The suspicious OF
the professors we're aroused by the
constant odor of the balls in the
class room, and an investigation
was ordered. 1t was found that
thirty girls are victims of the
habit.
At first the odors Of the nap
thalin were simply inhaled, but
the abnormal taste has developed
OF late that two Of the girls con-
fessed that they actually ate the
drugged insect destroyers. The
Misses Katherine and May Geartts
of Marinette, aged respectively Is
and 20 years, admit that they are
responsible for introducing the
fascinating effects Of moth balls in
a convent.

Storm Crazes One Passenger and Drives
Another tn Suicide.
New York, March 26.-The Cunard
line steamer Etruria, which arrived
last night from Liverpool and Queens
town was detained in the lower bay on
account of dense fog which prevailed
all night. She reached quarantine
early today. Heavy weather was en-
countered March 81 and %, commenc-
ing with a westerly gale, which chang
ed to the northwest, blowing a hard
gale with fierce hail squalls and high
seas. The seas boarded the ship and
caused considerable damage about the
deck and to the boat checks. Several
passengers were bruised and some sus-
tanned injuries requiring the attention
of the ships surgeon. An Irish girl,
one of the Storage passengers, became
so alarmed a. the violent pitching and
tossing of the steamer. that she be-
came demented She is still very i'll. A
second cabin passenger, named Fred
erick Sawicki, a Roumanian. commit
ted suicide by hanging. His body was
buried at sea.

LAB0RERS IN PROTEST.
Union Workingmen OF Newcastle, Pa,
want Carnegie Oner Rejected.

want carnegie OHer heleCtous
New York, March ga special to
The World from Newcastle, Pa, says:
Owing to the attitude OF the labor
unions the city council will, in all
probability, reject the $4,000 offer of
Andrew Carnegie for a public library
for this place."
Following the action of the Trades
assembly, division 80, Amalgamated
Association of Street Railway Employ
es has adopted resolution protesting
against the acceptance of the gift. A
committee to whom the matter had
been referred at a previous meeting
reported the following:
THAT such donations are inimical
to that independence American man
hood is assumed to possess (on general
principles) and especially so in this
case, when such fragrant injustice, even
to murder, has been done to those
whose toll is represented in every dol
lar of the money thus rendered.
''To erect such library here, and,
by its silent or its partisan outspoken
lHuueuCe, luuuCe our CulluTSu W iOOh
upon it as a logical, necessary and an
avoidr BILE method of obtaining certain
benefits, tends to destroy in their minds
any idea of national justice or human
rights and make of them willing sup
plicants at the mercy OF this system of
corporate greed, which deals out part
of the sum in charity 1t originally ap-
propriated from the producers to whom
it alone rightfully belongs. which sum,
If they had fully received, would have
enabled them to have owned a library
instead of now being, as are all others
who are similarly robbed, the objects
of charity.
1T would be something like sem
blance of justice if these donations
were made to the widows and orphans
of Homestead. We deem them as wor-
thy of remembrance as the Maine. A
city will enrich enormously few men
and then be itself an object Of charity.
We, therefore, condemn this library
move as an insult to him it is said it
will benefit most-the workingman; he
does not want charity but Justice"

DRIVEN TO END HIS LIFE
Ex-MayOr of Niles, Mich, Kills
Himself.
FAILURE OF BANK THE CAUSE.
Reposed Implicit Confidence Ira Cashier
JOhnson-Dead Man Was n Prominent
Factor In the Business aud Social LIfe
of tho Town.

Niles, Mich, March 26.-Ex-Mayor
w. ]. Gilbert, the intimate friend of
Charles A. Johnson, cashier of the
First National bank, which recently
failed, and who is now in jail at Gland
Rapids, charged with embezzlement of
the banks funds, committed suicide by
shooting himself with a revolver.
A search was instituted by friends of
the missing man, who had been missing
for two days, and the dead body of
Gilbert was found in the loft of
stable in the rear of his home. A bull
let had entered the roof of the mouth
and come out at the back of the head.
Glbert's suicide is another of the re-
suits of the downfall of Johnson and
failure Of the bank with which he was
connected. 1t is feared that Johnson
may have betrayed the trust placed in
him by Gilbert. The latter held in
trust the property of many widows and
tai. 1t is suspected that he may have
placed funds in the hands of Johnson
to invest for him, and that Johnson
lost Them. Gilbert was much con-
cerned about Johnson's disappearance,
and after Johnson was alleged to be a
defaulter Gilbert brcoded over the
matter. He ate breakfast Friday morn
ing, then went to his Office, and some
time in the forenoon went to the build
ing where his body was found, and
with bullet ended his life. Yesterday
everything was found in perfect order
in his law Office, but unfinished bust
ness and the unlocked safe showed
conclusively that he had been there
Friday morning. On Friday evening
the Republican primaries of his ward
were to have been held in Gilbert's
office, but he failed to appear. His
only daughter, Julia, was of the opin-
ion that he had gone out of town.
However, Sunday morning two friends
went to the residence and suggested
that a search be made. This resulted
in finding the dead body in the loft
on heap Of straw. A coroner's jury
was impaneled, and a verdict will be
returned soon. Gilbert was reputed to
be wealthy. The Rev. George II. Gill
bert of Chicago is a brother. His
mother and two other brothers live at
Dorset, VT. He was a Knight Tenn
plar, a member of Niles commandery,
No. 4, had lived in Niles for thirty
years, and stood high in the commun-
ity. Gilbert was born in Cavendish
VT, and graduated at Middlebury col
lege in 1869. In loo he came to Niles
and studied law. In 1872 he was ad-
mitted to the bar. His business soon
became extensive. He was successive
ly Il justice, Circuit court commission
er, director of the school board, city
attorney alderman, and mayor of the
city. The funeral will be held Tues
day, under Masonic auspices.
