CONVICT DEFIED POLICE.
Exciting scene Mt London Prison
Ends In His Rccnpture.

London, Dec. Ca convict at the
Pentonville prison who managed to
cludc the warders barlicaded himself
on the roof of the institution and for
thirty hours deiied all attempts to dis
lodge him. Thousands of spectators
watched the show and aided the pris-
oner by timely warnings of the move
ments OF his would be captors.
Ladders placed against the wall We're
promptly thrown down by the occu-
pant Of the roof, whose reckless move
ments and laughter at the futile eff
forts of tie wnrders were thought to
Indicate insanity. The fugitive col
lected a large pile Of states, which he
threw at the heads of those who at
tempted to scale the wall by means of
ladders until they were forced to re
treat.
The convict was eventually starved
into submission. He surrendered in
the afternoon after defeating all at
tempts to dislodge him by force. He
was finally lured TO the ground by the
offer of dish of roast beef and pota.

CH|NAMEN
According To Decision Of
Judge Are
AMERICAN CITIZENS
Provided They Arc Born in
Hawaiian Islands

Honolulu. Aug IA, via San Fran.
cisco, Aug 23.-All Chinese born in
thu Hawaiian Islands are American
citizens, no matter under what gov.
eminent they were born, according to
a late decision by Judge Estes.
The question OF the constitution
and flag is not yet settled in Hawaii,
as applicable to criminal matters.
The supreme court has just begun a
special term tc consider the cases of a
numoer of prisoners released by the
circuit court on the ground that they
were illegally convicted, because, af.
ter nnexalion they were found guilty
and sentenced On yerdlctS of nine
Jurors.
1t is contended by Attorney General
Dole that the recent inSular decisions
contained nothing to Indicate an opin
i0n by the national supreme court that
the first ten amendments to the con.
stituti0n "folow the flag" but that
the said decision simply covers that
annexed territories cease to be foreign
as far as tariff considerations are
concerned as soon as annexation is
complete.
The supreme court here heard
lengthy arguments on the question
yesterday. There are about ,25 con
ycted men whose cases depend on the
decision Of the question and civil in
terests are also ats AXE. y =
The issue is as to whether the con-
stltution followed the flag, not only as
to tariff but including all It's provis-
Ions. This, it is claimed, the court
at Washington has not yet decided.

night Chief of Police Brown and his
force of officers received riot call tC

as that piece of lard in 'front.' of M. j,
MCGOWAN S grocery store is called.
Mounting their automobiles they
rolled along the smootn asphalt pave
ment on South Main street at a lively
clip, the mud rolling from the wheels
of their machines in one steady
stream.
Arriving at the Square they beheld
the portlv form or Mr. MCGOWAN,
known as the "modest grocer, hold
ing boy, and an infuriated mob The
air was filled with shouts of "He said
he would give me one;" "He promised
me my first choice, land the like.
The police charged the cowd with
drawn clubs (Stuifed for the occasion)
and arresting the ringleaders brought
them to the police station.
The trouble as stated wa, caused by
the fact that Mr.. McGowan's noted
hunting dog "Pansy" had just given
birth to litter OF fine pups claimed
to be the best hunting dogs ever rails
ed in this country. Mr.. MCGOWAN,
withal very modest man, had prom
ised pup to each one Of the leading
members Of the South Main St. Gun
ming club. The members began to
compare notes as to who was going to
get pup and finding out that Martin
had promised more than he had on
hand they went to demand their

Albany, N ", Aug. 23.-Becaus'

would not let her play with little col
ored children. for wnom the white
skinned baby had formed strong at
tachment, she went to the Albany
shore of the river Hudson yesterday
afternoon aud wiilfu.ly drowned her
self.
The strange suicide of the little
girl has thrown Albany into a state
OF excitement, and is the talk OF the
city.
For some time no cause for the
girls suicide could be discovered, and
H. was not until the neartbroken
mother recol ected Anna'S petulent
resentment of her command that a
cause could be assigned.
At first 1t was thought the girl had
fallen into the water accidentally, but
eye witnesses to her act. who, unfort-
unately, were too far away from the
scene to rescue the tot, say Anna
walked deliberately into the. silent
river and sank after brief struggle.
Boats were manned as quickly as
possible, but when the would'be life
savers reached the scene Anna was
gone. .....
Some hours later her. tiny body

sluggish current Of the river, and,

Coroner, was removed to the strick-
