CzoIgOsz Was Born In Michigan.
Alpena, Mich, Sept. S.-Leon Cool
gosz was born in Alpena in about
1881. The family left here nine years
ago and it is supposed they went to
Cleveland. There were eight sons
and one daughter in the family. The
elder Czolgosz was born in Providence,
Posen county, Brumburg, and came
to A1pena from there about so years
ago. The father and elder sons were
quiet, peaceable citizens, with no
known anarchistic tendencies, and
were well thought of by the Polish
people here. Leon was small boy
when he left here and at that time
was apparently no different from 9TH
er boys of his age.
Czolgosz May Get on Lightly.
New York, Sept. 8.-President Nc
Kinley's recovery would mean that
his would-be assassin could be con-
fined in prison for ten years, the
maximum penalty under the penal
code of New York state. The death
of the president would result in the
trial of the assailant for homicide
and his conviction would mean death
in the electric chair.

Prayers in British Churches.
London, Sept. 9.-Genuine relief
pervades England over the favorable
reports regarding President McKin-
ley's condition and the prospects of

World Wide War on Anarchy.
Washington, Sept. 9.-State depart
ment officials expressed the opinion
Saturday that as result of the at

the international effort to bring about
the suppression of anarchists. Among
the diplomats in Washington there
was an unanimous expression of the
view that the several governments
should reach an international agree
ment to stamp out anarchy as swift
Iy as possible. Suppression of an
archists has engaged the attention of
governments of Europe for years, but
up to this time no concerted action
has been taken.
