 Manslaughter.

At Previous Trial Prisoner Was
 Found Guilty of Murder in Second
 Degree and Received a Life Sen
 tence-Had Served One Year of His
 Term.
 New Haven, Conn. Oct 16.-George Yang, the slayer of George Goering, his boyhood friend, pleaded guilty to the charge of manslaughter in the su- perior court to-day, and upon recom- mendation of his attorney, B. F. Ar vine, and State Attorney Williams, Judge Roraback sentenced him to five years imprisonment at WetherSfeld. Both attorneys made statements to the court of the circumstances of the Yang case. and in view of the fact that the supreme court of errors had ordered a retrial, recommended a merciful sen tence

WITH THE LEPERS
Conditions Now Existing at the Molokai Leper Settlement.
IT COSTS sso.ooo A YEAR.

Visitors Are Permitted to Visit Lepers
 at Any Time Now-Formerly Could
 Only Visit Once Year-Friends
 Are Not Allowed, However, to Kiss
 or Embrace.
 Washington, Oct 16.-There are now 909 lepers and 164 clean persons at the Molokai leper settlements in Hawaii, according to q report just re- ceived from Chief Quarantine Officer Cofer, in charge of the Marine hospi- tai service ill Hawaii. All these are housed, fed, clothed and governed for $S0,000 year. The report praises the hopeful and cheerful way ill which these poor people resign themselves to their fate and points out that such con- tentment can thrive only on a com fortable mode of life and good treat ment. Surgeon Cofer reports he made careful inquiries as to the chances of the infection of the clean people work ing among the lepers, and that the general opinion was that in time they would become leDers. Tn the last ten years, however. only ten clean residents have become lepers. The board of health has initiated a new system for preventing the lepers and their rela- tives and friends from embracing and kissing each other by marching the wis itors immediately from the steamer landing to corral with double de- fense. The friends are compelled to remain inside this inclosure and the lepers gather around and talk through the bars. Visitors are permitted at any time under this system. instead of only once year. as formerly The results of known exposure to leprosy,sa the report, show an uncertainty as to the chances of individual disease one of the most difficult to operate against. Women are said to be less liable to it than men, The three oldest patients at the settlement arrived in 1874. 1873 and 1879. respectively. The number of commitments to the settlements dur ing the last decade ranging from 152 in 1891 to S5 in 1900. show q gradual decrease despite the fact that the hun for leDers throughout the islands nev CT before has been so vigorous.

AIRSHIP INVENTORS.
Santos Dupont Working at Paris on
 His Machine Number Six.

Santos Dupont Working at Paris on
 His Machine Number Six.
 The efforts to produce an airship which will successfully navigate the air continue in Europe. The New York Herald correspondents at Paris and Vienna give interesting accounts of the work of the inventors. At Paris laborious operation of fitting up the airship Santos-Dumont No. 6.
 During the period of imitation the balloon is held down by large num- Der of ropes attached to bags of sand. As fast as the balloon is filled each of these cords is replaced by steel wire, which is fastened to the framework in such a fashion as to distribute the strain uniformly. While one squad of workmen, by means of ladders, is occu- pied in fixing the steel wires with hooks fastened to double thickness of the silk of the balloon, another squad is at work fixing the other end of the steel wires to the wooden frame work, which is IS meters long. There are in all 100 wires four-fifths of a millimeter in diameter, each of which is able to support weight of 80 kilos. But as the total weight is 600 kilos each wire only supports six. At least a whole day will be required to verify everything in order to make it certain that there will be no folds in the bal loon and that it will maintain the geometrical shape indispensable in such matters.
 At Vienna Herr Kress, inventor of an airship, started on another trial flight on the Tullnerbacher reservoir.
 The result was disastrous. After go- ing a certain distance Herr Kress started his motor at full speed ahead, which caused the forward part of the flying machine to rise about 35 centi- meters out of the water. On rising to this height the whole machine sudden ly lost its equilibrium and swung over to the right. This caused it to fill with water, and it sank like stone. The water at this point is Is meters deep.
 Herr Kress, who was alone in the flying machine, was carried down with the ship, but, thanks to the life pre- server he wore, he came to the surface and was able to grasp the poles which the officer and engineman, who were witnesses of the accident, held out to him.
 The aged inventor-he is more than ID years of age-was in very ex- hausted condition and had sustained some slight injuries. He was taken home to Perkersdorf.
 The flying machine sank to the bot tom. It will be flshed mn when ifsxr;Il be seen if it is still in working order.

EVERY KIND OF CONVEYANCE
Brought Into Play to Conduct Visitors
 to Wolcott Fair.

No more glorious day than this could be had for the holding of the great Wolcott fair. It was crisp, autumn day. A clear blue sky, a radiant sun, brisk atmosphere, placed joy in the hearts of those who intended to visit the fair grounds. It was beautiful day for drive in the country. And what a multitude from this city went to the fair. Every mode of traffic was used. Some walked, others rode their wheels. Others. more forum ate, rode on horseback or enjoyed a Tide in carriage, hack, two seated gig,
 bus. and even an OK wagon. One could see all sorts of conveyances. It was impossible to hire a carriage of any kind in the city this afternoon. About seven 'busses left the center and each was damned with people who were hanging on in the best manner possible. In one bus there were about forty women and five men. It Is unnecessary to state that the men received their moneys worth. At the lair grounds there was an immense crowd, the largest that was ever on the grounds.

HUSBAND AND WIFE DEAD.

New York, Oct 16.-William Joyce and his wife were asphyxiated to death during the night at the home of Mrs Joyce's parents in Brooklyn. Joseph Duff. 19 years old, brother of Mrs Joyce, believes he was the unintention- al cause of the tragedy Mir and Mrs Joyce had spent the evening at the home of the Duffs, and were asked to remain over night. They were given the sleeping room usually occupied by Joseph Duff, who was away from home during the evening. When the young man went to his room and lit the gas Joyce spoke to him and ex- plained the situation. whereupon Jo- seph turned out the gas and went to another apartment to sleep. He thinks that in his confusion at finding his room occupied he may have turned on the gas after the light had been ex- tinguished There is no ground for suspicion of suicide.

AGAIN HE BURGLARS
Cracked the Safe in Moodus
 Post Office Last Night.

Got Away With Four Thousand Dol
 lars Worth of Stamps and More
 than $10O in Cash-Got Tools From
 Neighboring Blacksmith Shop to
 Open the Safe.
 Moodus, Conn, Oct 16-Burglars cracked safe ill the postoffice here some time after midnight, and depa rt- ed unseen and unheard by any of the residents with $4,0OO worth or stamps and $120 in cash from the money or der drawer and the postal funds. No mail in the office was disturbed.
 The postofIice occupies part of q business block in the center of the town. Entrance was gained by fore ing ill the front door With the aid of tools which they secured from the blacksmith shop of H. M Gates in the village, they smashed the combination lock of the safe, and blew the door O. with ro-glycerine. Blankets were stolen from the stable of A. D. Purple, which were wrapped about the safe to muff1e the sound of the explosion, which was not loud enough to awaken any of the people living near by.
 was not until 6:15 this morning when the assistant postmaster, w. C.. Brown, went to the office, that the break was discovered The robbers by that time were presumably far away from the village. leaving no trace of the manner or direction of their go- ing Postmaster G. F. Lecrenier has notified Postoffice Inspector Lewis of this district, who is expected here this afternoon.
 The Moodus office is a second class one. doing a large business on account of the presence of a large medical firm in town. The presence of so many stamps in the safe is accounted for by the fact that the office had just received fresh consignment of them
 Last Sunday five strangers were seen in town, and they remained near ly all day. congregating at one time near the blacksmith shop from which the tools were taken last night. There is a theory that these may have been the robbers and that they were pre- pairing at that time for the break. A number of strangers were seen in town last evening, but t|ey were thought to be here to attend a secret society meeting.
 It is believed that after the robbery the men went off on foot in a south erly direction. which V ould take them towards East Haddamsand Lyme. The ferries are being watched. and it is probable that t7n burglars are still on the east side of the Connecticut river.
