KILLED HIS YOUNG WIFE.
Two Months Old Babe Innocent Cause
 of a Tragedy.


 New York, June 14.-Mrs Mary Tighe, the eighteen-year-old wife of Martin J. Tighe, twenty-two years of age of West 1OSth street, declared last night just before she died in hospital as the result of having her throat cut and gashed with carving knife, that her husband killed her. Tfghe is pris- .oner in the Presbyterian hospital, with a gash across his throat. He is charg- ed by the police with the murder of his wife and attempted suicide. The trag- edy from accounts given by the police and parents of the young husband and wife, appears to have resulted from diff ferences between the two families. and the two months old babe of the couple seems to have been the innocent cause of the household differences.

short time the rat went and brought some of his friends. Then it stood up on its hind legs, with it's fore paws against the jar. Another rat ran up and stood on the first ones shoulders, and then another did the same until there were four rats up the side of the jar. Then the top one dipped it's tail in the oil, and the second one licked it dry. By chang ing places each of them had as much oil as it wanted. The artist did not like to frighten them away, but after that he kept his oil where the rats could not get to it. Na

Filipino Ladies Smoke 1c-Inch Cigars

HlAAp1nO I1NsE1ssB SnACkAea 4S-InCH C1SsATS
 The ladies of the Philippines have progressed far beyond the dainty cigarette; indeed. their cigars, which measure some Is inches, are not in- tended for an evenings pleasure or an after-dinner smoke. In the Phil ippines they prefer smoking on the insta1lment plan, for these huge rolls of tobacco, which measure five inches in circumference, constitute one weeks pleasure for the ladies of Luzon. To offset the difficulty pre- sented by the weight, the mouth end is filled with a soft fiber of tobacco, so that when the cigar is gras ped firmly between. the teeth so great an indentation is made that for the re- mainder of the six days smoke the huge cigar fits naturally to the mouth. and can be held without any conscious .effort.-London Science.

rbe Tieer,. Make-Relieve Eyes.

MT. Beddard, of the London Zoolog- ical society, calls attention to a pe- culiarity of the ears of tigers which he thinks may be classed under the
 head of protective markings" On the back of each ear is very bright white spot, and when the ears are di- rected forward these spots are conspic- uous from the front. Mir. Beddard suggests that when the tiger is sleep ing in the dim light of cave or thicket the spots on its ears may appear to an enemy, looking in, as the gleam of its watehful eyes, and thus save, the sleeper from an-unexpected attack.-n Youth S Companion.2 ss

IS STILL FOR PEACE.
Czar Gives Most Interesting Inter
 view to Frederick W. Ho1ls.
Expresses Deepest Qualification over Cordial Support of the United States Government and People
 to The Hague Conference.

Frederick ". Hollis, of the interna- tional court of arbitration, left for Warsaw the other night, after hay ing been received in special audience by Emperor Nicholas at Peterhof pal ace at noon that day. The conference was extended and most cordial. It is understood that the emperor thanked MT. Hollis for his history of the peace conference, dedicated to his ma jesty, and expressed the deepest qualification over the cordial support from the American people and the United States government, declaring that he wished to thank the various American organizations, such as churches and chambers of commerce, for their enthusiastic efforts in be- half of peace.
 It is also understood that the em- peror spoke warmly of the excellent relations-historica traditional and actual-between the United States and Russia, and expressed a hope that both powers, with their great re- sources, would continue to stand for peace and the strengthening of The Hague tribunal and the bloodless ad- justment of international difficulties.
 His majesty expressed conviction that the peace conference marked an important step in advance, but that the tribunal must seek support, first and foremost, in the intelligent opin- ion of the world, adding that in this matter American opinion was uni versally recognized as leading. With out the backing of the American gov ernment and people, the emperor ob- served, the conference could not have been such success.

EARL RUSSELL ARRESTED.
Englishman Charged with Bigamy
for Contracting u Marriage In
the United States. .45

London, June 1S.-Earl Russell was
arrested Monday on charge of having
contracted a bigamous marriage in the
United States. The earl was met 1t the
railway station upon his arrival from
the country by detectives with war
rant, and was taken to the Bow street
police court, where he was formally
charged. The nobleman appeared to
be quite unconcerned. ..,5- So.
Earl Russell was remanded in 81, 900
bail.
The prosecution proceeded to out
line the earl's marriage to Mabel Scott
(his first countess), their separation,
his subsequent disappearance from
England with a neighbor, Mrs. Somer-
Mrs. Somerville were together a t Reno,
New. On April IA, 1900, Earl Russell OBJ
tanned a license to marry Mollie
Cooke, otherwise Mrs. Somerville, and
az judge performed the ceremony
April IS.
Counsel for the earl pointed out that
the prosecution omitted mention of
the divorce proceedings instituted by
his lordship in America.
In the event of conviction the case
will be taken to the house of lords, as
Earl Russell is entitled to trial by his
peers.
While Earl Russell awaited in the
anteroom the summons to appear be-
fore the magistrate, the woman he
married in America joined him. When
the case was called a representative
of the public prosecutor said the pris-
oner was charged with feloniously
marrying Mollie Cooke in America,
April IS, 1900, while his wife, Mabel,
Countess Russell, was alive.
The prosecution announced that the
Nevada district judge, Mr.. Koehler,
and witnesses of the marriage had ar
rived in England to prove the cere-
mony. Counsel for the defense init
mated that Earl Russell, having Sc
cured a divorce in America, believed
his subsequent marriage was legal.
About year ago it was announced
that Earl Russell had obtained d.
vorce in Nevada and had there married
Mrs. Mollie Somerville, daughter of
the late George Cooks, of Comber-
nauld, Scotland. Mrs. Somerville had
also obtained divorce in Nevada from
her husband, George J. Somerville.
Later the earl and his new countess
went to England and the first countess
threatened to have the earl arrested
for bigamy.

Jessie Morrison second time for the
murder, a year ago this month, of Mrs.
DIN Castle. The trial was then begun
in earnest. AS the attorneys for the
state have said they will exclude much
of the testimony offered at the first
trial, it. is believed that the case will
be given to the jury promptly. 1t has
taken four days and half to secure
the present jury. It is composed of
nine farmers and three laborers. A

lily selected, but he was excused Mon.

FOnE-Fu - John G. FERGUSON, an

in Railroad Deal-ROckhin Re-
ports Early Agreement Likely.

London, June 'lS.-The Shanghai
correspondent of the Globe, tele-
graphing under Mondays date, says
he learns in Chinese quarters that
the dowager empress proposes, when
the court reaches Kai-FongFu, in
Honan, to announce that the en-
peror has been killed by brigands
and that Prince Tuan's son has sue
ceeded to the throne. The dowager
empress will then establish new
capital at kai-Fong-Fu, which will be
connected by railway with Marking.
The contract for this railway will be
given to John C. FERGUSON, of Bos-
ton, who, the correspondent under
stands, will sell the concession to the
Russians.
The correspondent adds that Fer
gusson is acting on behalf of Ii Hung
Chang and Taotai Shang, who hope
to escape censure by throwing the
blame for the transaction upon Fer
gusson.
An Early Agreement Expected.
Washington, June 1S.-A cable
gram Ids OCCA ASSS1VSA oo VAIN So"oS
department from Special Commits
sioner Rockhill, fully confirming the
press report from Picking to the ef-
feet that an early and complete
agreement on the indemnity question
is expected and that, too, on the
basis of the proposition variously
known as the American, British and
the British-American. The officials
here are hopeful that the present
week will witness the close of the
negotiations on the subject of in
demnity, though it is possible that
further slight delay may occur
through yielding to the desire OF
one of the ministers to be allowed
another opportunity to consult with
his home government.
Once the subject of indemnity IS
out of the way, the withdrawal of the
foreign troops from China will
progress with rapidity. But there
are still several other matters of the
first order of Importance to be final
ly adjusted by the ministers, and one
that is expected to give the most
trouble is that Of the arrangement OF
new trade treaties between the pow
ers and China.
