before 1t was over twenty-one animals
lay in a heap, some impaled on horns,
others with necks broken and others
frantically climbing over the squirming
mass, while some of the survivors leaped
fences to various parts of the yards.
A dead wall Of cattle finally brought
the rush of animals TO a halt. The hero
only stopped when the pressure behind
gave way because of the lessening num-

RUSSELL GOES TO
EXAMINE RECORDS
ATTORNEY GENERAL KNOX PRE-
PARES TO CARRY OUT PROVlS-
IONS OF SPooNER AMENDMENT
TO ISTHMIAN CANAL BILL.

Washington, July 3.-The work incident
to the carrying out of the provisions of
the Spooner amendment to the isthmian
canal bill will be prosecuted with the
utmost expedition consistent with the ma
ture and magnitude OF the interests in
voived. Attorney General Knox has desig-
mated Charles H. Russell, an assistant to
the Attorney General to go to Paris and
make a critical and exhaustive exam
Russell is exceptionally well equipped for
the task.
Under the direction of Mr.. Knox, Mr.
Russell will apply to the French court
of cassasion to complete certain essen
tial proceedings and will verify records
and proceedings in the case of which the
attorney general now has reputed
transcript. The liquidation of the old ca
nal company and the merger into the new
one will require Mr.. Russelrs careful
scrutiny. While 1t is thought a perfect
title to the Panama canal property can
be secured and any necessary conces-
sions obtained from Colombia, the attor-
ney general is unwilling to express him
self on the subject further than to say
that he Is hopeful of success, but that
everything will depend on the result of
the inquiry to be instituted in Paris and
the specific concessions which Colombia
is willing to make.
1t is possible that after the examina-
ton of the records in Paris shall have
been completed Mr.. Knox himself may go
to France for a personal review of the
work before proceeding further with the
negotiations

court in Brooklyn, to have the waiver set
aside. Justice Gaynor said that he would
like to have given a decision in favor OF
Malcolm w. Ford, but that legally the
latter hadn't a leg to stand on.
Fords bitterness against his brothers
has been a matter of comment among HIS
friends for a long time. After his divorce
Ford, according to his friends was prac-
tically penniless and began TO brood over
the wrongs he believed his brothers had
done him. f
He complained bitterly to friends that
Paul snubbed him when he went to him
and asked him for help. but as far as
could be learned he never intimated to any
one that he would ever resort to violence.
Nevertheless an intimate friend of Ford.
who would not allow his name to be used,
said yesterday:
malcolm was a desperate man. He
had been to Paul time and again and
tried to get him to agree to let him share
his fathers estate. He had even asked
him, to make some small settlement on
him, but had been refused. He told me
that Paul wouldn't even help him out a
little when he needed money. Ford was
not a man to take this sort of treatment
easily. He had lost about everything in
the world worth having and he was a des-
perate man. I can truthfully say that
while am Mortified at this tragedy I am
not surprised"

l.. in Mr. Ford's beautiful home there.
Mrs. Ford went back to live with her
mother and Mr.. Ford came to this city to
live. The facts in the divorce suit were
jealousy guarded and few of the friends
of the couple ever found out just what
was the matter. Mrs. Ford brought the
suit and Ford did not attempt to fight it.
Early In his athletic career Ford's faith
er had told him that he would disinherit
him unless he gave up athletics and for
years relations between father and son
were strained. Finally Ford was stricken
down with typhoid fever and for days was
near to death. His sickness, brought about
a reconciliation. but Gordon Il. Ford new
er changed his will, and when he died on
November 10, 1891, there was no provision
made for the son.
Ford decided to fight the will, and he
served notice on his brothers and sisters
of a contest. When the will was offered
for probate. Ford agreed with his brothers
to sign waiver of his rights. and did so.
Ford maintained that his brothers Paul,
Leicester and Worthington Chauncey
promised that there should be an even dis
tribution of the estate left by their father,
which was valued at 81, 100000

In all parts Of the country men and

and educators are wondering at the re-
markable cures made by, Prof. Thomas +.

combination with certain vital magnetic
remedies which contain the very elements
Of life and health.

or Adlzin and was asked to invite all read
ers of this paper who are sick or who are
worried by the ills of those dear TO them

So great is the sensation wrought in the

MURRELL'S CAVE is
A MATTER OF DISPUTE

JACKSON, Miss, May SAN exceed
ingly warm controversy is now going on
between Holmes county, Miss, and Har-
din county, Illinois, as to which county
really has the cave in which John A.
MurreIl the famous highwayman ana
murderer, made his headquarters, ana
hid all his goods. during the early days
of this territory.
According to the early settlers IN
Holmes county. Murrell followed the old
hatcher trail. would waylay or overtaks
men who fioated their goods down from
Ohio TO New Orleans in flatboats on the
Mississippi river. His haunt and head
quarters. according to the Holmes county,
people, was in the Funnagusha hills. nins
miles northwest of Lexington, In Holmes
county. In these hills there is a very
large cave. in which have been found ar
tic1es that would have belonged to one
of Murrell's stamp. and the people claim
that this was the hiding place Of the Ia
nous bandit. and highwayman.
But Hardin county, Illinois. now comes
forward with cave which the people OF
that section claim was the hiding Place
of the famous Murrell. and they produce
the cave and other signs to sustain their
claim.

vealed some astonishing results and
proven that first-class apples can be
raised in the east; and many of the
farmers have entered into the business
quite extensively, having started young
orchards which are already yielding
them a generous profit.
Not all thieves are as frank as the
old man who had charge of a certain
college professors summer house at
Bar Harbor. When the house was
opened for the summer certain tomato
preserves of which the president was
very fond were missing. The keeper
on being questioned about the missing
preserves braced himself against the
door and said, Yes, sir, l took them

The Arocstook Republican tells of a
farmer residing in Washburn to whom
Kismet has not been as kind this year
as in past seasons. The man is honest,
straightforward and Industrious; he
has only a few acres in his farm and
this year he planted five acres to pota-
toes, expecting to have fair crop.
But after digging them with the help
of one man (his wife assisting in pick
ing up) and selling them he finds that
so many had rotted he has only thirty
dollars for his entire yield. And, as
his phosphate bill was forty-five dol
lars, he wonders where his years pro-
fits are coming from. He has finished
digging and is now working by the day
for neighbor and hopes to earn
enough to meet all his obligations.
A striking instance of faithfulness to
duty was manifested one Sabbath this
summer when the attendance at the
Bass Harbor church consisted of one
lady, summer visitor, who walked
mile on a rainy day to go to the House
of Cod but not with the multitudes
that kept holy day, for the minister,
Rev. Dean A. Walker, and the sexton.
Mr.. Geo. Billings, We're the only ones
present. However, the sexton opened
the house and the minister preached
his sermon to his audience of two, and
the lady made the responses. On one
other occasion a young lady teacher in
the Sabbath school at the same church
found herself and flock locked out as
by some reason the sexton was absent
and the key could not be found. Moth
ing daunted, however. a plank was
found, a window opened, and the Sab
bath school scholars climbed up some
other way and the services were con-
Quoted, with profit to all concerned.
