improper life and fined $40.

grand larceny against her. Now, that
seems to me TO be taking advantage Of
the poor ignorant negro too much, and
we don't propose to stand it. If one of
US had been caught in a white resort we
would have been arrested, ana we believe
that Shurtleff was guilty OF an equal
crime in going to a colored resort. And
if this case is pushed against the colored
woman we intend to file a complaint
against Shurtleff''
The police and county officers, when
seen, said that they knew Of the uprising
and had heard of the threats, but de-
clared that their claims were not true,
and that they could get no complaint
against Shurtleff.

The charge that 1 shot Filipinos

NOT HIS STYLE OF PRAISE.
Exhorter Objected to Piano Music and
Got a Trouncing.


There is a prosperous and popular
United Presbyterian church in Jersey
City Of which Donald Murray is a
prominent member. He was invited
to lead the midweek prayer meeting
recently. When he was escorted to
the platform by the pastor, DR.. Henry,
to conduct the exercises he discovered
the pastors daughter seated at pi-
ano as if prepared to play, and de-
clared that he would not permit in
strumental music at the service. The
pastor declared that the piano should
be used and Mr.. Murray said that he
would smash the instrument If an at
tempt were made to play 1t and pro-
ceeded to carry out his threat. The
pastor and two young men in the con-
gregation seized Mr.. Murray, one of
them taking him by the throat and the
other striking him with such force as
to bring on hemorrhages. A police
man was called in to make the breth.
rem dwell together in unity, and when
the case finally got into the courts the
pastor and two of his strenuous as.
sistants were acquitted and the other
was found guilty, but was dismissed
without penalty.

CRABS THAT HUNT RABBITS.
Drive Them Out Of Their Holes Into
Waiting Nets.

Catching rabbits with a crab Is a
favorite pastime of the country boys
in the lands lying on the English
coast. One would think a mouse trap
and a bit of cheese would be a saner
method, but it isn't. The way they
work it is this:
A large. lively crab is caught on the
shore and pressed into service. From
a lighted candle hot grease is dropped
on the back of the crustacean ana
the candle stuck upward in this way
on the shell. AS soon as the grease
holding the candle has hardened firm
" the crab is placed in one end OF
a rabbit burrow, at the other end OF
which there is net. The rabbits, see
ing the strange looking creature COM
ing toward them sideways with a
lighted candle on its back, become ter
rified and bolt out, TO be caught in the
net of the hunters. In due time the
crab also energies and is caught and
placed in the mouth of another bur
row to scare out other rabbits. This
continues until the boys have bagged
all the rabbits they want. II the crab
proves himself lively and works hard
in their behalf the hunters generally
restore him to the sea after the nights
sport is over.

promises to send everything free

Since long time in mining and re
sembling works the fact is known and
unpleasantly perceived that leather
clothes, which mostly have been used
till now, by no means can suffice for
the claims to be called for water-tight
clothes. Therefore, instead of leather
clothes such ones of oiled or caout.
chouced stuff have been tried to use,
but these also have the inconvenience
to be too much too heavy and incom-
mide to hinder the free movement of
workmen." He concludes as follows:

with his wife, at the Hotel Cecil, in
London:
On their first evening there he hap
pened to retire somewhat earlier than
his spouse. Arriving at the door OF

Still he got no reply, and, becoming
somewhat uneasy, he shouted the en-
