In this connection an interesting ques-
ton comes up. Some of the judges will
be elected for long terms. others for
only parts of terms. 1t will be neces-
sary for the state convention to decide
which justices shall be nominated for
the full terms of six years and which for
the partial terms. 1t is possible that a
jangle may arise over that problem.

depth of i6 inches. The accident oc-
CURED on Friday afternoon. Young
Thomas was working for G. Spence and
was engaged In harvesting hay. He
was upon load which had just been
completed. He dropped his fork at the
rear of the wagon, tines down, where
1t stuck upright in the ground, and was
In the act of reaching over to adjust
something about the hayloader when
he lost his balance and fell. He came
down with full force upon the upright
handle of the fork, which was driven
into his body. The handle entered at
the anel orifice and followed the intes-
tine apparently to the point of location
of the stomach and liver, the messur-
ment of the handle evidencing that 1t
had intruded full sixteen inches. DR..
Livingstone, of Hopkinton, and doctors
from Monticello were Immediately
summoned and every possible relief af-
forded, but the injury proved to be ia
tai. The young man was unconscious
for some time after the accident but
later came to his full senses and suf-
fered but very little pain. So far as an
exterior examination could determine
none of the intestines was punctured by
the handle, but the nature of the hurt
was such that 1t practically preluded
any possibility of recovery. Blood
poisoning developed and the end came
rapidly. Young Thomas was about %
years Of age.
The funeral was held yesterday sf-
ternoon, the remains being taken to
Monticello for interment The young
man had but recently joined an insur-
ance order known as the Court Of Col.
umbian Circles, and his was the first
death which the order has sustained.

Died a Hero.


Mt. Auburn, July PA very sad
drowning occurred this afternoon at
about 4 O'Clock in the Cedar River
about three miles northeast of here,
near what was known as the Webster
farm. Floyd Webster, q young lad of
about fifteen in company with others of
his age, were wading in the river. Sew
eral men who had been fishing were sit
ting on the bank watching the boys.
Suddenly one of the men by the name
of Mark Wescott noticed that Floyd
had gotten beyond his depth. He sprang
into the water to help him. The boy,
realizing his danger, grabbed his would
be rescuer by the neck, strangling him
and they went down together. Young
Webster was an unusually bright boy
and the fact that he was to be the stay
and comfort of his widowed mother
makes his death unusually sad. Mr..
Wescott was widower and had no
children.
The above telegram was great shock
to the friends of the deceased that lived
here.
The deceased was member of Tad

with Gen. Cruz Monagas, chief of the
Venezuelan revolutionists at BARGE
Iona, in which Gen. Monagas said for
eigners might be sure no coercion
would be applied to them. According
to Gen. Monagas the reyolutionists
have divided their forces into rs Sec

upward. One division of 5000 men,
commanded by Gen. Matos and Gen.
Domingo Monagas, is at Orituco await

TYPOS GIVEN A SCARE.
Fire Occurs in Opera House at Gin.
cinnati, Where They Are Hold
ing Their Convention,

Cincinnati, o., Aug. 1G.-Shortly aft
err noon Friday Pixies Opera house, on
Fourth, between Vine and Walnut
streets, was discovered on fire. At the
time, the delegates of the convention
of the International Typographical
union were leaving the auditorium, but
all escaped without any troubhle. No
lives were lost, and the only one in
iured was Fireman Beckman, from fall
ing glass.
The fire started in the sub-cellar of
George Jofree's grocery, where a boy
was smoking cigarettes while unpack-
ing goods. The fire spread rapidly,
but it was controlled in less than an
hour
The loss aggregated $4,000, distrib-
uted among many tenants. George
Joffee lost $4,000 and Henry Straus,
cigars and tobacco, $4,000. The Pike
estate and Manager Hunt, of the opera
house, are among the losers.
Cincinnati, Aug. 16.-The conven-
ton of the international Typograph-
ical union Friday adopted PROPOSE
ton for an aggressive campaign the
next year for universal eight-hour
law. President Lynch and Vice
President Hawkes. were directed to
act with all local unions where the
working day exceeds eight hours
and secure observance of the eight
hour law.
The union has disposed of over 300
propositions for changes in it's
laws, as well as many resolutions.
Among the resolutions defeated were
those relating to socialism and po-
litical idealisms. A hard fight was
made 10 have committee of nine
appointed to report at the next con-
ventiol of the relations of wages to
taxation. 1t was strongly advocated
by the single tax men, but over
whelmingly defeated.
Resolutions were adopted at the
night session which indicate declara-
tion of war with the Union of Press
men and also inaugurate movement
for the international Typographical
union hereafter to have jurisdiction
over all the departments of offices.
The convention will conclude to-day.

SURVIVAL OF A CHAIR.
Wonderful Preservation of the Piece
of Furniture Mt the Time of
Mont Pelee's Eruption.

At the time we left Roraima she was
afire from her stem to the aft engine
room bulkhead. As we looked back
we saw a strange thing, says Chief
Officer Scott's account of the loss of
the Roraima in Martinique harbor, in
Leslie's Monthly. A common reed
chair, such as you often see on the
deck of a transatlantic liner, was
hanging in the air to the ships stern.
1t had been fastened to the after flag
and braced below so that it hung Off
in space just beyond the reach of the
flames. Some poor devil had rugged it
there and sat in it to save himself
from fire, afraid to jump on account
of the fierce rush of the volcanic cur
rents below. We could see him there,
sitting in his chair, long before we left
the ship, at the back of the solid wall
of fire which divided us from him, and
he must have suffered terribly before
he dropped from his perch and went
overheard. We could not get at him
on account of the fire in the forward
part of the saloon, but a stateroom
was at hand close by, with plenty of
life buoys, and he might have got one
and put it on; but, strangely enough,
after all that fire there hung the
empty chair literally intact. The next
morning the chair still hung there un-
harmed.

A MARVELLOUS TREE.
Palm In Brazil Which Ia Put to Man,
Uses by the People of That
Country.

Undoubtedly the most marvellous
tree in the world grows in Brazil. 1t
is the carnahuba palm, and can be EN-
ployed for many useful purposes, says
the Boston Transcript. Its roots pro-
duce the same medicinal effects as
sarsaparilla. Its stems afford strong,
light tibers, which acquire beautiful
luster, and serve also for joists, raft
ers and other building. materials, as
well as for stakes for fences.
From parts of the tree wines and
vinegar are made. 1t yields also a
saccharine substance, as well as a
starch, resembling sage. Its fruit is
used for feeding cattle. The pulp has
an agreeable taste, and the nut, which
is oleaginous and emulsiye, is some
times used as a substitute for coffee
OF the wood of the stem musical in
struments, water tubes and pumps are
made. The pitch is an excellent sub.
stitute for cork. From the stem a
white liquid similar to the milk OF
the cocoanut and flour resembling
maizena, may be extracted.
Of the straw, hats, baskets, brooms
and mats are made. A considerable
quantity of this straw is shipped to
Europe, and part of it returns to Bra
I'll manufactured into hats. Tn,
straw is also used for matching
houses. Moreover, salt is extracted
from it, and likewise an alkali used il
the manufacture of common soap.

THE CITY DOGS HABITS.
VIII Quickly Answer to "Hello," Hut
Doesn't Know the Meaning
of u whistle.

A dog fancier says that city dogs
would have to learn over good many
things if they were sent to smaller
towns or the country.
"When you want dog in small
town or the country" he says, you
whistle. A city dog doesn't know what
whistle means.
"You seldom hear city man whistle
to his dog when the dog is united, and,
of course, there is no use in whistling
to one that is at the end of string.
Most city dogs are taught to come at
the crack of whip, OF the ordinary
call: Come here
"The city dog is also familiar with
the salutation: 'Hello!' He will fire..
quently prick up his ears at that wheI
he won't notice any other call.
"a city dog seldom barks on the
street when he is at large. He may
make night hideous If he is tied up in
a backyard. but rarely in the streets
"You will find dogs along the piers
they seem to have fondness for sail
ors. An ordinary dog will follow q
sailor when he wouldn't be coaxed by
anybody else. The city dogs habits
are peculiar"

An oskaloosa Lady Msets Many
Former Friends.

The UNITED Presbyterian" of Ia
coma, Washington, gives the follow
ing complimentary notice ofthe paper
read by Mics Florabel Patterson at
the United Presbyterian Young Peo.
pies convention held there recently:
1.-THE addresses and conferences OF
the convention we're all of an ex-
ceptionaly high order. The Stu
der ts' Challenge to the Churches by
Miss Florabel Patterson, of Monmouth
College, was one of the most stimu-
lating of tie entire convention. We
would be glad to see it circulated
through all our churches as new in
ceLtive to missionary aggressive
ness"
Miss Patterson went as delegate
to the convention and has returned
to this city for a short visit with her
sister, Mrs. Gilchrist and her mother
on Fifth avenue east. During her
trip she spent about three weeks in
Washington and Oregon and met
many former Oskaloosa people, all of
whom were anxious to hear from
their old home. While spending a
few days on Fdget Sound she was the
guest of DR.. and Mrs. w. A. Spald-
ing who were formerly residents of
this city and asked about many friends
and acquaintance. She also saw the
Perrys and the Kelsalls, both families
formerly lived here, and spent short
time with Mrs, E. M, Beatty and her
daughter, Mrs. Hare, Other ac-
quaintances we'll known in the city
we're: Mrs. Dollie Jones-Thayer,
MIR. and Mrs. Orison Dutton ana the
Bowel sisters.
Harry Dur.on was away with cav
airy troop at camp, several miles
from Tacoma and time was too limit
ed to permit of visit there. John
Burnside returned from his visit here
during her stay and took up his work
in camp several miles north of the
city.
After leaving Puget Sound Mise
Patterson made side trip to the
beach and made the famous journey
up the Columbia River. Probably the
most enjoyable was her trip through
the foot hills of Mount Rainier. The
parry were three days making the
journey, their way taking them up
into the "big woods" and tall timber
land for which that part of the coun-
try is famous. On her way hone she
stopped for short visit with her
brother, Glenn Patterson, of Omaha,
arriving home Monday evening.
