pen in small western city where he
was playing one night stand last
season. Mr.. Doty was starring in Faust
and in the last act was supposed to
descend into hell through trap in the
stage, but for some reason the trap at
the right moment refused to work, at
the interesting moment a small boy in
the gallery shouted, "Hurray fellers,
hell's full" 1t is needless to say that
the actors as well as the audience were
equally broken up.

A banquet's on the table spread,
The heap of corn is done
The turkeys and spare ribs are fine,
Mince pies are number one.
i see the jolly neighbors ALL
They eat their pumpkin pies,
And drink sweet cider from the mills
Till latest stars arise.
The scene that follows at the home to-
night we would recall.
For fifty long years,
Midst smiles and midst tears,
The love that was plighted so true
In the hey day of life,
Its toll and its strife,
Has been music and song the way
through.
The tiftieth year as husband and wife.
Besses few mortals in welded life.
To some come the iron, tin, silver and
brass,
But few reach their golden wedding alas.
Time with his sickle bright and keen,
Sewers the golden threads between
Loving hearts and joyous lives,
The tenderest erooms and sweetest wives.
How must your hearts in rapture swell
AS you list once more to your wedding
bells,
AS they ring again for the fftieth time,
The we'll known voice of that happy chime.
And as over the heart the memories steal,
sweet peal,
yHJhac tbo ,,,reo, fha ola6
Amen"
And you twain were one by the laws of
You pledged on tina. altar of love and
! truth
The comforts of age and the strength of
I youth.
AS your days sped on, to your welded Joy
Were added the charms of three girls and
boy.
And as you watched their strengthy lives.
You saw your daughters sought for as
wives,
While history waits with uplifted pen
To write what may happen for other men
4 Your children all with two grandchildren
i with you stand,
Around and before this happy band.
And now they come to the homestead rool
With the clear and unmistakable proof,
That as we CT our wealth divide,
Our joys are henceforth multiplied.

THE ARMY MANEUvERS.
Regulars VIII Go Into Camp Mt Fort Riley
September 20, Followed by Militia
Nine Days After.

Washington, Aug. 21.--The regu-
lar contingent of the division will
go into camp at Fort Riley Septem-
Der 20 and will be followed by the
state organizations September 30
1t is intended to continue joint
maneuvers for period of ten days
after the division is organized. In
order not to interfere with the cur
rent work of the various department
headquarters, a special division staff
has been detailed to report to Maj,
Gen. John c. Bates, who has been
assigned to the command of the d.
vision during the maneuvers.
The benefits to be derived from
this coming together of brigades
and division is so apparent that the
war department has fully determined
upon this policy for the future
Many Of the states have permanent
maneuvers for their national guards
during the summer months and the
result has been extremely benefi-
cial to all those organizations. The
regular army has had an abundance
of field service during the past four
years, but nearly all the recent work
in the Philippine islands has been
done by small detachments, frequent
w mere squads.

TO ESCAPE.
Desperate Convicts Make Futile
Attempt to Gain Liberty.
THREE OF The CRIMINALS WOUNDED


Frankfort, KY, Aug. 21.-Fired by
q desire to gain their freedom, Wal
lace Bishop and Thomas Mulligan,
of Kenton county, and Lafayette
Brooks, of Morgan county, all muir
derers and desperate criminals, made
q futile attempt to escape from the
state penitentiary yesterday morn
ing and, as a result, Bishop got q
bullet wound in his breast; Brooks
is shot through the shoulder and Al
fred Ransome, colored, a Louisville
murderer, who for few moments
essayed to follow the three daring
leaders, is suffering from wound
in the shoulder.
The mutiny, which lasted for four
and a half hours and ended in an
ignominious surrender by the con.
victs, caused great excitement with
in the prison and among the people
Of Frankfort. The convicts chose
what they considered most pro-
pitious time for their outbreak. Sc
lecting the breakfast hour for their
dash for liberty, when they hoped
to stampede large number of pris-
oners, they overpowered the guards
with their pistols, captured Charles
Willis, foreman Of the reed depart
ment of the chair factory, and, using
him as a shield, entrenched them
selves in room where they defied
the officials. It was not until they
discovered that Warden Eph Lillard
intended to starve them out that they
decided to surrender.
Ransome was shot by Eph Lillard,
Jr., while the men were entrenched.
Bishop was wounded as he was sur
rendering, because, when told to hold
up his hands, he attempted to put
one of them in his pockets, as though
reaching for q weapon, and Brooks
was wounded by a stray ball at the
time Bishop fell.
Wallace Bishop is said to be only
the alias of the convict shot in the
mutiny. His name is said to be
Burns and it is also said that he Is
member Of a well-to-do family in
st. Louis.
| Brooks made statement to the
warden yesterday afternoon. He
places the responsibility for the at
tempted outbreak on Wallace Bishop
He says that he and the other two
men had worn shackles constantly
for months for bad conduct and that
Bishop assured them that he could
get them out.
Wallace Bishop, alias Burns, dice
at night. At his request Father
Major, of the Catholic church, was
sent for and baptized him shortly
before he died.

EXPLODE.
A Serious Accident at the Paper
Mills at Wilmington.
NINE MEN KNOWN TO Be KILLED.
Six Others Are Reported Missing and Three
More Badly Ipjursd-Ths Building and
the Mills About the Structure
Completely Wrecked.

Wilmington, Del, Aug. 2l.-Nlne
workmen are known to have been
killed, six are missing and three 9th
ers were badly injured by the ex-
plosion Of two steel digesters in the
Delaware pulp mills Of the Jessup
& Moore Paper company on the
Christiana river yesterday afternoon.
The digesters were loaded in a two
story building. There were ten OF
them in the building, each one re-
sembling a vat and about six feet
in diameter. They were used tor
reducing wood pulp. Eighteen men
were at work in the building. There
were two terrific reports and the
next instant the building and the
mills about the structure were COM
pletely wrecked. One digester was
blown into the air and fell to the
ground 200 feet away. A dense vol
ume Of smoke for time prevented
the outside workmen from going to
the immediate rescue Of those who
were caught in the ruins OF the
falling building, Several men made
their escape without any injury. An
alarm of fire was sounded and the
entire fire department Of the city
and large force Of police were
soon on the ground and the work
Of rescue was Immediately begun.
Several Of the workmen were taken
out unconscious, only to die after
being removed to hospitals. The
was piled up for more than
30 feet and the escaping steam made
the work of rescue rather difficult.
Those who were not killed outright
were mangled and burned by escap-
Ing acid that flowed over their bodies
from the broken digesters. ;
The officers of the company think
that too much steam was generated
in the digesters and that this was
the cause Of the explosion. The
monetary loss is estimated at $685.

"sooNERs" GOT AHEAD.


Thomas, Ok, Aug. 23.-When the
1000 excursionists from Iowa, Mis-
souri, and Illinois reached the site
where they were to locate the town
of Thomas, Ok, they found 1000
"sooners" on the ground and small
city already doing business. This
created much dissatisfaction among
the excursionists, who had come l.
900 miles for their lots. The settlers
have not decided just how they will
get rid of the "sooners," but as the
land was bought and paid for by the
Trenton, Mo-, capitalists, it is be-
lieved that those who draw lots will
have no difficulty in making the
"sooners" evacuate their property.
The Birth Of Thomas CITY.
St. Louis, Aug. 23.-A special to the
Republic from Thomas City, Ok,
says: The birth of the new town of
Thomas City, Custer county, Ok,
was attended by about 5000 persons.
Drawing for lots was begun yester-
day afternoon and over 200 lots were
placed with the owners. Some Of the
lots which cost $40 are now marked
$1,000 to $1,000. There is plenty Of
rood water an abundance Of food
The barren plain is converted into
a tented village OF 5000 inhabitants.
A few hours after the lots were
drawn a newspaper was printed in
the village and circulated. A big
celebration will be held next Monday.

Drowned by the Tide Before Their
Mothers Noticed the Danger.

London, Aug. pa narrowing

dren and others made heroic at
tempts at a rescue. The Oldest child
