OF March. after long illness
There have been rumors OF his death
reaching this city for some time past.
but they have never been confirmed. no
official notification of his demise having
ever reached here
Desiring to have full information re-
garding the death of the one time cti-
zen. The Sentinel placed itself in com
munication with DR.. j. w. Collins, for
merry OF this city hut now the peniten-
tiary physician. In reply the following
WAS received regarding the last illness
and death OF Prot Evans:
"On October 80 1901, he was stricken
with paralysis fright hemiplegia) He
WAS placed in the hospital where he re-
manned until his death, receiving the
best care and treatment that theNn edi-
cal department could provide. His con-
dition improved somewhat during this
time and he partially recovered the use
Of his limbs. His death was sudden and
unexpected. 1t was caused by cerebral
spoplexy and he died within 5 minutes
after the stroke
Through the fuence of his friends
here, he secured his admission to the
National Soldiers Home at Leavenworth,
Kan, and his release from the peniten-
tiary was merely a matter Of form, as in
all probability hs would have been
granted pardon or parole in very
short time
"The remains were buried in the Can
on City cemetery and all OF his papers
and personal effects were sent to his
wifa who resides at WaKeeuey, Kan.
Among the latter was his discharge from

his country
Prof Theodore r Evans lived in this
city off and on for a period of 10 years
and he was known to al ost every body
While in the pententiary he led the pen
itentiary band and was considered
most exemplary prisoner. There are
great many who think that the deceased
received a greater sentence than was his
due. considering the fact that the princi
pal in the crime for which he was com
mitted as an accessory was permitted to
go free after a trial iu the courts OF this
county.

MUSIC TO HEAL WOUNDS.
The Violin Has Been Employed ~
m Aid to Surgery I'm
Paris.

The attention of medical men has
been called to two extraordinary
cases reported from hospital in
Paris. A man had been seriously cut
by accident and the wound refused
to heal. From time to time the pa
tient went into violent paroxysms
and death appeared certain. A sur
geon who had given much attention
to the subject of vibrations secured
the services of a violin player and
treated the sufferer to a musical
remedy. A change appeared at once
and under the influence of the vio-
lin recovery was rapid and complete.
In the other case a wound contin-
ued to suppurate in spite of all that
could be done. The violin was again
called into requisition and played
close to the injured part, which was
barred for the purpose. Soon the
wound assumed a healthier appear
ance, suppuration ceased and COM
plete cure was effected. In both
these cases it was noted that only
certin kinds of music were of benefit,
showing that vibrations must be
strictly in accordance with the ma
ture of the wound.

BACK FROM MANILA.
Gen. Smith Arrived at San Fran.
cisco on Transport Thomas.
The Onicer Who Ordered samar Made .
Howling wilderness Overcome With
Emotion When Told OF His
Retirement.

San Francisco, Aug. 2.-Gen. Jacob
Smith arrived yesterday from Manila
on the transport Thomas. Gen.
Smith positively declined to say any
thing for publication and would not
even allow reporters to approach
him. Through his aide, Lieut.. M. II.
Shields, Gen. Smith said that he
would not be interviewed as he did
not care to subject himself to further
criticism.
Gen. Smith, tried by court-martial
for having ordered the island of
Samar transformed into a bowling
wilderness, was doomed on his arri-
val to learn for the first time that
President Roosevelt had retired him
from active duty. When the Thomas
reached quarantine station Maj. Du-
val, of the transport service, boarded
the ship with his secretary and met
Gen. Smith and Lieut.. Shields at the
door of the generals cabin. A
sealed document was handed to Gen.
Smith. 1t contained the official mott
fication of President Roosevelt's
action and, upon reading it, Gen.
Smith retired, overcome with
emotion.
Gen. Smith. who is wearing civilian
attire, appears exceedingly nervous
and worn. His 81 years are plainly
read in his every action and his init
mate friends fear that he is breaking
down under the severe strain to which
he has been subjected to in recent
months.

THE REFORMED PIG.
Animal That Has Been Abused
for Centuries.

Our enterprising and diligent de-
partment of agriculture has set itself
to an important task. 1t is going to
improve the pig. At least, it will see
whether the pig has any ambition to
improve, comments the Brooklyn
Eagle. 1t will raise a litter of suck
lings in q yard fioored with clean
sand; it will battle the animals; it
will feed them delicately, and for q
whole year will keep them in a con-
dition of responsibility. Then it will
open the way to the usual pig pen
and will stand by to see if the crea-
lures forsake their manners and elect
mud and the trough.
Probably the pigs will elect to stay
in the clean and wholesome yard.
The obloquy that these beasts have
fallen under is not of their seeking.
Men have abused them by combining
them in ill-kept places and feeding
them on refuse. The pig in it's nat
ural state is not unclean. 1t is dirty
when it is kept in pen, because it
cannot be otherwise. If afflicted
with flies or vermin it has no re-
source but to lie in the mud. and as
to. its food, If it has nothing but the
fermenting refuse of the house it
must eat that or starve. When left
at large swine do not usually seek
filth and slime. When free to roam
the woods they are no more unclean
than cattle. 1t needs little expert
menting to convince of that fact.

What the Union Pacific is doing in en-
cheering improvements is commended to
other companies that operate in parts Of
the country where no such difficulties are
encountered as in the West. Straight roads
are economic roads, and they invite traffic.
The wild yanks and alarming rolls to which
passengers are subject on some OF them
cause train sickness, which is a form Of
sea sickness, and headache, and they cause
a rapid deterioration Of cars and engines.
Those railroads make the best bid for
patronage that promise, not merely speed,
but comfort, and steadiness is the more
comfortable, because it indicates security.
We have been eager to extend the mileage
OF this country. Now We might show some
expedition in reducing it by following the
example of the Union Pacific in straighten-
ing needless turns and lowering or raising
needless grades.-Brooklyn Eagle.

The Ants "Gee-Gee."

new to him These ants were much en-

at Il much swifter pace, and each Of
