ately for the Leaders.

Charlottesville, Ind. (SpeciaD The
women OF Jacksonville near this city,
recently organized a Carrie Nation
Club and passed resolutions adyocat-
ing the methods of Mrs Nation in her
crusade against the saloons in Kansas.
SO wrought up did the league become
over the question that it called a
special meeting and determined to wipe
the three saloons in Jacksonville out
of existence.
Mrs. James Snyder, president, adj
dressed the women, who numbered
more than a hundred. Mrs. Snyder
said that if Mrs. Nation could smash
the saloons of Kansas, there was only
one way to abolish them in Indiana
to take the same weapon used by Mrs.
Nation and drive the saloons out by
force
Enthusiasm ran high, all the hatchets,
axes clubs and bricks in the neighbor-
hood being speedily collected. With
Mrs. Snyder in the lead, the women adj
vanced to the nearby saloon Of Dan
Grimes, who had just opened a new
place with "all modern improvements"
Without warning, half a hundred bricks
were hurled against the glass front, and
before the astonshed proprietor
realized what was wrong the front OF
the saloon looked as if cyclone had
struck it. The inmates scrambled
through the back door.
Meanwhile the women had gained the
inside and demolished the large mirror
and empted all the bottles ON the
floor. Faucets in whiskey barrels were
turned open and the liquor and wines
were several inches deep. Grimes,
realizing that his assailants we're the
newly organized Nation Club, rushed
into the saloon and choked Mrs Sny-
der almost into insensibility and
dragged her from the place. Her
friends were quickly to the rescue, how
ever, and with clubs and what bricks
were left beat him almost to death.
The condition of Grimes is serious
and he may not recover from his in
juridN, Mrs. Snyder is also in criti-
cal condition. The three saloons have
closed and will not attempt to open till
law and order is restored. Jacksonville
is small place and has always borne a
bad reputation for its lawlessness and
wide-open methods. The affair has
made a sensation, as the people who be-
long to the Carrie Nation Club are the
best known of the place. The citizensl
say if the saloons attempt to reopen
they will be dynamited, If necessary, in
order to abolish them.

MlLAN'S CAREER ENDED.
Was One Of the Most Picturesque Figures In
EurOpe.-FaiIure as a Ruler

Vienna (By Cable).-Former King
Milan Of Servia is dead.
With the death OF Ex-King Milan
one of the most picturesque figures in
Europe passes from view. The old
King was not a famous man, and Eu-
rope has not been much benefited by
his life. However, he has been one OF
the most interesting of those who play
ed their parts on the Continental stage
during the Nineteenth Century.
Milan became King OF Servia in 1868,
and for 2I years he ruled the country.
His reign was a most important one to
Servia. Before il ended a constitution
had been framed placing all real power
in the hands of the Princes and freely
elected national assembly OF the peoph.
In addition, during Milans reign, Ser
via gained complete independence This
came about as a result OF the Russo
Turkish War, I877-I878 The wars OF
Milan's reign we're, as a rule, unsuccess-
full, however. His country was beaten
by Turkey and saved only by the inter
ference of Russia, and again beaten by
Bulgaria in 1885.
Milan's reign will be long remember
ed, not because of the good that at
tended it, but because of the evils. The
Court of Servia at one time was the
most infamous in Europe, and Milan
avoided a revolution, in which he would
have been deposed, only by abdicating
in favor of his son. This abdication
took place in 1880, when the son was
only I3 years of age Servias present
King was born on August IA, 1876, Be
fore the abdication Milan made himself
most obnoxious to his subjects by his
divorce from Queen Natalie He was
divorced one year before he abdcated,
After his abdication the ex-King led an
adventurous career. His career of dis
Sipation in Belgrade had disgusted
everyone, and his divorce from Queen
Natalie had helped to strengthen the
feeling against him. Consequently, after
the abdication, ~ left Servir After bis
departure his son did everything to
keep him from returning
The King led a checkered career
during the last few years of his life.
There are few resorts in Paris, Vienna
or Monte Carlo that he did not fre-
quent, His face was familiar in the
Austrian and French capitals and he
squandcred every cent that his son al
lowed him.
