SUSAN HALE IN MEXICO.

Miss Susan Hale, sister of Edward
Everett Hale. the noted writer, and
authoress herself of many books, in
Guiding two in Mexico is visiting in
Cuernavaca, where she expects to re-
main until April. Miss Hale published
1.-The Story of Mexico" as one of the
series of Stories of Nations" publish
ed by G. P. Putnam's in 1884. The
book is a condensed history of Mexico
written in interesting style. 1t had and
still has wide circulation. The fol-
lowing year she published, "a Family
Flight Through Mexico" as one of a
series of books of travel written by her
self. She has not written any books
| for several years and says she has left
| literary work and her trip in
to Mexico is purely one of pleasure.
She is accompanied by Mrs. w. G. Weld
and Miss Goddard. of Boston, who have
Travelled extensively all over the world
COMMUNICATED SYMPATHY.
The Mexican government took imme-
date and fitting action on receiving
the news of the queen of England s
! death, instructing the diplomatic rep
resentatives in London to commune
cate the sympathy of Mexico to Lord
Salisbury. 1t is probable that on the
date of the obsequies in London the
British colony in the City of Mexico
will hold a solemn memorial service
which will be attended by President
DiaZ and cabinet as well as by the di-
p1omatic sorps resident there. John w.
Foster, who was the American special
envoy to England on the occasion of
the queens jubilee in 1897, is now in
the City of Mexico and published a
tribute to Queen Victoria:
FROM SALTILLO TO ARTSAGA.
A concession has been granted for
the construction of a standard gauge
ufacturing town of Artsaga in the east
ern part of the state (Coachuila). This
road will furnish better transportation
facilities to a number of manCfac-
turtles, including four cotton factories,
a number of flour mills, paper mills and
saw mills. The Artsaga district, aside
from being one of the best agricultural
districts and the best wheat region in
northern Mexico, is heavily wooded
with pine timber. and has a number
of mines that have been heavy produ-

no means of securing any,

him during his illness but paid his
doctor bill and gave him respectable

KILLED AN AMERICAN.
A dispatch from Guadalajara says
that a few nights ago a band of
brigands made an assault on the house
occupied by John Melickerson, an
American in the village of San Sebas-
tianite. Melickerson was hacked to
pieces with machetes and his home was
looted. Several members of the outlaw
gang have been captured and will be

DELIVERED TO MEXICO.
William Rusk. the young man who
shot and killed his wife on the street
in Nogales has been at last turned
over to the Mexican authorities. Some
time ago his attorney gave notice of
an appeal to the supreme court of the
United States and a stay of ten days
was granted to allow time to perfect
the appeal. The Anne elapsed and an
order to take the prisoner to Nogales
and deliver him to the waiting Mex
lean authorities was issued. Then
further stay of three days was granted
and that expired Wednesday. No
word to the contrary having been re-
ceived from Washington the prisoner
was taken from Tucson and handed
over to the Mexican authorities. When
Rusk was informed that he was to be
taken to Mexico he was surprised, as
he ahd never believed that he would
be sent there. When told he must go
he sent for his mother and when she
heard from his own lips his fate she
tainted. 1t is not known what his
punishment at the hands Of the Mex
lean authorities will be, but it is not
believed that he will be sentenced to
dath as the Mexican laws take cogni-
Zance of the character of the deceased
and Rusk's wife bore an unsavory
character.

NAL message before a joint session of
both houses of the legislature and sur

Of the opposition to liquor traffic and

Sam Rawson occasionally said good
thing, and one Of these occasions chanc.
ed to be the town meeting. The peo-
pie of Sans village could not under
stand how the money appropriated for
the roads had vanished with such poor
results.
A stretch of road running past Sans
house was in VIGOROUSLY poor condi-
ton, although Sam declared that he
had paid literally to have it put in
good order, and there was general in
terest when Sam rose to make his state
ment before the selectmen.
''Id just like to say one thing" he
drawled, needless of the fact that he
had interrupted an indignant neighbor.

SOUTHERN MOUNTAINEERS
The Part They Played In the War
Between the States.

1t is odd to think that the southern
mOuntaineer was not discovered until
the outbreak of the civil war; although
he was nearly century old then, and
it is really startling to realize that
when one speaks of the southern noun
taineers he speaks Of nearly 100000
people who live in eight southern
states-Virginia and Alabama and the
southern states between-and occupy
a region equal in area to the combined
areas of Ohio and Pennsylvania, as
big, say, as the German empire, and
richer, perhaps, in timber and mineral
deposits than any other region of SIM
liar extent in the world. This region
was and is an unknown land. 1t has
been aptly called Appalachian Ameri-
ca, and the work of discovery is yet
going on.
The American mountaineer was dis
covered, | say, at the beginning Of the
war, when the Confederate leaders
were counting on the presumption that
Mason and DiXon's line was the divid-
ing line between the north and south
and formed therefore, the plan of
marching an army from Wheeling to
some point on the lakes and thus dis
severing the north at one blow. The
plan seemed so feasible that it is said
to have materially aided the sale Of
Confederate bonds in England, but
when Captain Garrett, a West Point
graduate, started to carry it out he got
no farther than Harpers Ferry. When
he struck the mountains, he struck en-
emies who shot at his men from am
bush, cut down bridges before him,
carried the news of his march to the
Federals, and Garnett himself fell
with a bullet from a mountaineer's
squirrel rifle at Harpers Ferry.-Scrib-
ner's Magazine.

James Mayne, the young son of Prof
d d Mayne at GAINESVILLE, was accident
ally shot in the left shoulder by bullet
from a twenty-five caliber rifle in the
hands of one of his companions. The
boys were on hunting excursion near
GAINESVILLE and in some manner the gun
was discharged and the ball struck
young Mayne's shoulder between the
neck and the joint. Physicians succeed
ed in removing the ball, which lodged in
the muscles of the shoulder, but the
young man will be unable to use his arm
for some time. The physicians stated
that it was fortunate that the ball did
not strike few inches lower.
