Sheriff telephoned for guards before
attempting to remove his man to
Jail. A patrol wagon came and the
prisoner and dog were seated in it,
surrounded by policemen with drawn
revolvers. When the start was
made for the Jail the crowd must
have numbered 1,500. They were
vociferously demanding that the
prisoner be Immediately hung, but
there was no leader and lynching
was averted. During the drive the
dog never for an instant took it's
eyes from the trembling victim. So
perfect was the hounds work and
thoroughly had it terrorized the
prisoner that he confessed to the
crime soon after he was placed in
Jail.
II was informed that the blood
hound was worth $1,000 and was
one of the best in the state. It was
not very prepossessing animal, but
when it was in action, like a. cour-
ageous soldier, it looked much better
than it did when on dress parade.

WOMEN AND DRINK.

An English writer recently stated
that there was a growing tendency
among women to, the indulgence in
alcoholic beverages especially among
the wealthier and higher classes,
with whom the habit has become al
most universal.
One Of tho reasons given for this
pernicious habit is the exhausting
effects of society's demands upon it's
devOtees.
This alcoholic habit is much great
or also among the English women
of tho lower classes tn an the Ameri-
can women of the same class.
One noted English physician says
the growing desire for drink is the
result of the increasing independence
of women-a liberty which some OF
them interpret as license for self in
diligence in accordance with their
inclinations.
This independence bring with it
numerous demands, and many
women find themselves unequal to
the strain and so resort to stimulants,
at first only in moderate degree,
but the habit gains steady ascendary
over it's victim.

A WOMAN'S FLEETING HAT.

A WOMAN'S FLEETING HAT.
A gale galloped up fifth avenue the
other day forty mile clip. 1t blew
the hat from woman's g head as the
woman scurried around a corner in
the shadow of a sky scraper in the
course of construction.
For a moment the hatless woman
stood dazed. She looked at the
hurrying crowd of men and women
The men turned their faces toward
the rolling bundle of ribbons and
feathers, but not one went to it's res
cue.
Each man clapped his hand on his
own hat and quickened his walk.
The workmen away up in the air in
the forest of iron wofk leaned over,
looked down and then resumed. A
chauffeur SHE'D his vehicle and bare
ly missed the tumbling headwear.
Several women on the crossin
stopped. They evidently concluded
that while there is always a man
around to pick up the hat of another
man, pone intended to come to the
rescue of a woman's.
Then the women gave chase them
elves. Three made dash for the
hat, which by this time had lodged
in wagon wheel. Two of the trio
grabbed for the hat at the same
time. There seemed to 3bea parley

NELLIE MITCHELL HOME.

From the Minneapolis Journal:
Chicago, Dec. II, Miss Ella Mitch
|ell, ,25 years old, said to be the daugh
ter of wealthy parents of Worthing-
ton, Mimi. ,is missing under peculiar
circumstances. and last night the
police of the HARRISON street station
were asked to assist in the search for
her.
DR.. Gertrude Gall Wellington, who
is in charge of the emergency hospit-
al, reported the case to Seargent
Erlson, and she is inclined to the be-
lief that the young woman may
have committed suicide because of
her inability to secure a position in
the institution as nurse. Dr.. Well
ington told the police that several
week ago Miss Mitchell came to Chi
cago from Lawton, Mich. and until
last night Thursday had remained at
the hospital. The young woman said
she had read of the Emergency los
piital in the papaers and was ambi-
tious to become a trained nurse. Dr..
Wellington allowed Miss Mitchell to
remain until last Wednesday, but as
she had no training for nurse there
was no place for her, and Wednesday
night she was told it would be best
for her to return home.
That night attaches of the hospital
heard Miss Mitchell weeping in her
room, and the next day she left, say
ing she was going to Aurora where
she had friends. She failed to reach
Aurora however, and as many arti-
cles, including watch, which was
present from her mother, are still in
her room in the hospital, it is feared
that something may have befallen
her. Detectives we're detailed on the
case Last night, but as yet no trace of
the young woman has been found.
Her parents have been notified.
In reporting the case to the police,
DR.. Wellington said: miss Mitchell
was a beautiful girl, and her only
ambition seemed to become a trained
nurse in order that she might care
for suffering humanity. She said
that she had heard of the hospital,
and thinking that perhaps she could
be some assistance here decided to
apply for position. y
It was known here Tuesday that
the Twin city papers were investi-
eating the above and no reference
was made to it in the Advance until
their statement could be obtained
and published with Miss Mitchells.,

no intention of acting mysterious.
She says, while she was visiting
her sister, Mrs. Carrie johnson, in
Lawton, Mich, desiring to secure a
situation as q nurse she secured q
position in st. Lukes Hospital, Chi
cago, after arranging for it decided
she did not want to go to Chicago at
the time and asked that the time for
entering upon the duties, be etxend-
ed, not making satisfactory arrange
ments she went to Chicago and on
arrival found the position had been
filed. She then secuerd position
at the Emergency hospital where
police patients, suicides and and pa
tients Of this character are brought.
After she went to work the kitchen
girl quit, and Miss Mitchell was as
signed this work, in addition to
answering the door and assisting
in the operating room. In this
work she was compelled to go from
a hot kitchen, through cold halls
and other places where the tenn
perature was at one extreme or the
other and in this way she caught
a severe cold resulting in qrinsy.
She told the doctor, Mrs. Wellington,
that she was SICK and unable to
work, and was tod sh, would have
to pay fifteen dollars week if she
staid there, to this statement Nellie
said she did not have to stay there;
this was on Thursday. Nellie then
packed her things and went to the
Michigan Central depot to arrange
for getting home, but it could not
be done by that road so she went to
the Rock Island road depot and ar
ranged for transportation home.
This was perfected about five o'clock
She then sent an epxressman after

not get all Of her things which &C.
counts for her grip and watch,
which was in the grip, being found
in her room. When she left the
hospital she did not expect to be
able to get way that day and epxect-
ed she would 60 back that night. She
making the remark she did, when
leaving the hospital and her manner,
probably led the doctor to believe
she would commit some desperate
act, but Nellie is yet in possession
of too good faculties to do any injury
to herself or permit it to be done.
She arrived here Friday morning on

nation reached the paper is, a prom

Thrown on Wheel.

Granite, o. T., Nov. 2s.-Wednesday
morning about 1890 o'clock T. W. Duogh-
ty. living eight miles west of Granite
was almost instantly killed, says the En-
terprise. He had had a bale of cotton
ginned at the Hughes gin and drove to
the platform TO load II. AS he stepped on
the platform with the lines in his hand,
the team became frightened, supposedly,
jerking him off the platform and onto a
wheel of the wagon. crushing in the skull
on the right side.
No one saw the accident only one by
stander, who noticed Mr.. Doughty step
from the wagon to the platform, but paid
no attention In an instant the by-stander
turned around and saw that Mr.. Dough-
ty was lying on the ground in an uncon-
scious state. The suposition is that as
soon as Mr.. Doughty landed on the plat
form his team started to run, as they
had made the attempt twice before, and
he was pulled TO the ground, his head
striking the wagon wheel.
He was Immediately picked up and
taken to ]. l. Hughes house, where med
ical aid was summoned at once. but to
no avail lie died in a few minutes.
Mr.. Doughty was about Al years old
