Auburn, N. Y, Sept. 27.-Czolgosz,
President McKinley's murderer, in the
custody Of Sheriff Caldwell, of Erie
county. and twenty one deputies arrived
in Auburn at 3:15 a. m.
The prison is only about fifty yards
from the depot. Awaiting the arrival
Of the train there was crowd of about
200 people Either from fear Of the
crowd, which was not very demonstra-
tive, or from sight of the prison, Czol-
gosz's legs gave out and two deputy
sheriffs We're compelled practically to
carry the man into the prison.
Inside the gate his condition became
worse and he was dragged up the stairs
and into the main hall. He was placed
in sitting posture on the bench while
the handouts were being removed, but
he Tell over and moaned and groaned,
cyincing the most abject terror.
AS soon as the handouts were unlock
ed the man was dragged into the prin-
cipal keepers office. AS in the case Of
all prisoners, the officers Immediately
y. ocee6cd to strip him and put on new
suit of clothes. During this operation
Czolgosz cried and yelled, making the
prison corridors echo with evidence of
his terror.
The prison physician, DR.. John Germ
examined the man and ordered his re-
moval to the cell in the condemned row,
which he will occupy until he is taken
to the electric chair. The doctor de-
clarcd that the man was suffering from
fright and terror, but said that he was
ahamming to some extent.
The collapse CT the murderer was a
surprise TO everyone. En- route from
Buffalo he showed no indication of break
ing down. He ate heartily Of sandwiches
and smoked cigars when not eating. He
talked some and expressed his regret for
his crime He said Il am very sorry
for Mrs. Mckinley
He reiterated his former statement
that he had had no accomplice and de-
clarcd that he never had heard of the
man under arrest in st. Louis who
claimed to have tied the handkerchief
over his hand concealing the pistol with
which the President was shot. He says
the handkerchief was not tied. He went
behind the Temple of Music, arranged the
handkerchief SO as to hide the weapon
and then took his place in the crowd
BY Jailer aIittchell he sent this message
to his father: s.Tell him I'm sorry left
such bad name for him.
Czolgosz was in normal condition this
afternoon and seemed to have fully re-
covered frcm his collapse.
There are five cells for condemned men
IN the prison and CzolgosZ was placed in
the only vacant cell, so all are now oc-
cnpied.'
Two Keepers are constantly on guard
in the room. which is separate from the
main prison but to guard against an at
tempt on CZolgosz's part to commit sui
eide, two moro guards have been added
and one will constantly sit in front OF
Czolgosz's cell and will have key so
that any attempt at self-destruction may
be easily frustrated.

THE States represented by the IN

made by them before the war. but re-
jected by England, to submit to arbi-
tration the settlement of differences
which gave rise to war.
.In this they particularly have in view
the question whether England is right
in alleging that any action was taken
by the Republicans which had for it's
object the suppression of the English
element in or it's expulsion from South
Africa, and generally whether the Re-
publics have made themselves guilty of
any act which according to internaton-
ally recognized principles would give
England the right to deprive them of
their independence.

England already at the outbreak of the
war commenced and has ever since con-
tinued to act in contravention of the
rules of war between civilized powers

it proclaimed at Cape Town and else
where. He also desires most serious
penalties for rebellion and better rein

The Test That Told.

A merchant who had two stores in
small villages four miles apart tried
an experement. He put IN bargain
counter at each store, containing the
same articles at exactaly the same
price. In the newspaper of one vii
lage he advertised his special count
er. In the paper of the other town
he did not advertise and sold 1898
worth of goods. In the store where
he did advertise he sold goods
mounting to 1888. In comment
ing on the result Of his EXPERIMENT
the merchant says: "People who got
the paper with my advertisement in
would pas one of my stores and drive
four miles to the other one for what
they could have gotten at the same
price at their doors.-Ex,

The fire company was on the ground

Too many persons have expert

1t has been demonstrated time and

merchants keep in stock, and yet
some will continue the practice. 1t
is bad habit for several reasons.
First, those addicted to it pay as
much as it would cost to obtain them
of the home merchants and some
times more, if they take into consider
alton the time spent, freight and ex-
press charges, and also the fact that
they frequently have an inferior arti-

But worse than anything else is the
fact that the practice tends to dis

seen coming from the windows. The
kitchen was entirely on fire, the Tar
and the gasoline in the stove tank
b eing all burned UP before the fire
was extinguished.
While the firemen were at work
putting out the fire which was confn-
ed to one room, and was hard to
fight on account OF the dense black
tar smoke, the people were in the

The damage has not been adjusted

from water and moving the goods.
