den the house. Yountz. in company with two friends, called at the front gate and asked Kennedy to come out. It was about dusk. Kennedy came to the gate. seeing the three young men. fired at them. one ball from his revolver striking Yountz in the breast just above the heart and the other in the back. either of which would have proved fatal.
 Yountz ran about fifty or seventy-five yards and fell in a ditch and expired be- fore medical aid that had been summon ed could reach him. His body was given a decent burial.
 Two honorable discharges from the army were found on his person, and these led 0 the knowledge of the fact that he belonged to one of the most prominent families in Columbus, Ohio. His relatives were at once notified. and his father anne to Hollywood and had the remains disinterred and taken to Columbus.
 Kennedy was given a preliminary trial before the probate judge and admitted to $500 bond. At the converting of the Grand Jury he was indicted for murder in the first degree.

FraSment.r From g. Pari.r Letter.
BY FRANCES GRIFFIN.

brought, here the captors of the Bastile were borne in triumph; three days later, Louis XVI came in procession from Versailles under the clamors of the mob to whom he showed himself at the window of the Hotel de Vile wearing the tri- colored cockade. There is a great picture on a wall of one of the apartments repre- sentng the scene. It was here that the Commune was holding its meeting when the arrest of Robespierre was made and he tried to shoot himself, but only suc- ceeded in shattering his jaw. You recall these incidents of history, I know. The building is only three stories high, but all the apartments are large and elegant and richly decorated, the ceiling and walls being beautifully painted. Splendid groups of stauary in the vestibules and corridors.
 In the Grande "Salle des Fetes" are great decorations going on for the recep- dered the freedom of the city. The vase that you see near the entrance and which cost many hundred dollars. venture to say that if he comes in tomor- row he will be surprised to be told that he ever had anything to do with 1t.
 The Place de la Vile, is an open square which has witnessed many a tragedy. It was here that Catherine de Medicls ordered to be excuted the Count Mont- gomery of the Scottish Guard, for having accidently caused the death of her hus- band at a tournament.
 France still carries her criminals into the open air to be executed: and in those olden times Ravaillac and Damiens here received their horrible punishments.

Today we went with a guide to pass through the sewers of Paris. It Is a visit permitted, twice in every month, and more than two hundred had obtained tickets from the Prefect. These sewers are spoken of by Victor Hugo in Jean Val Jean" You remember where Val Jean carries Marins upon his back, through d branch sewer low and narrow and repulsive. l observed the places I thought he mentioned.
 The system of sewerage in Paris is the finest in the world. The total net work of sewers Is 765 miles, with more in d state of construction. which will make length equal to the distance between Paris and Madrid.
 All the drains are constructed of solid masonry and lined with hydraulic cement, They are fianked by pavements, between entered from fight of stairs at the foot of which were boats linked together, close fitting the sewer and which scrape the bottom as they go along. After five or six miles, we left the boats. took train of cars going in another direction, and came out at the steps leading up to the Place du Chatelet opposite the Hotel de Vile. There were no maladors, more than pertain to all subterranean places, nor the least suggestion of aught else than most perfect cleanliness. Yet I, for one was glad to come out. I think the trip is one of mere bravado. There are too many beautiful things to see , above ground. Here at the place of our coming out is the Town Hall, called Hotel de vile,' with much interesting , history associated. It was hither, that the first victims of the revolution were

MET HORRIBLE DEATH.
Gus Dixon Falls Into Vat of Boiling
 Turpentine.

Bay Minette, Sept. 9.-(Special.)-One of the most horrible deaths ever recorded in Baldwin County occurred at Bromley. fifteen miles south of here, Thursday afternoon.
 The victim was Gus Dixon, a cousin of E. V. Dixon. who is well known in the lumber business in South Alabama. The facts learned from an eye witness are as follows: Young Dixon and man named Jernigan were at a turpentine still watching d diseharge from the still. In order to see the wrok to q better ad- vantage they went into the second story of the still. This story is almost en- tirely open, but about three feet from the second floor there was small strip nailed around on the posts. The two young men leaned up agalnst one of these strips at point where the rosin vat was directly under them. Hardly had they done this when they were warned that it was dangerous to do SD, and but few moments afterwards the strip gave way and young Dixon fell into the vat filed with boiling rosin.
 Mir Jernigan escaped with his left arm being scalded and may lose the arm, but Mr Dixon was submerged in the rosin He arose 10 h!s feet with cries that cou.i have been heard for nearly a mIlo, but was unable to get out until those who saw him ran to his assistance. The flesh was almost completely burned from his body. He was undressei and cared for to the best advantage possible, and d runner was sent to Bay Minctte for d physician but he w.ts dead before medit,.l assistance could reach him.
 Just before lie diej he c2l'd for some soup which was made and given to him, He asked for mora. 1ut d.ed befo.e if could be made. IL is not believed that he was rational et any time after he was taken out.

NO MORE DISEASE,
The French Govermenta Plan to
 Eradicate all Sickness.

WOrIds WOrk.
 The French Government has recently taken preventive measures in the schools which will at some time practically stamp out the disease in France. If they are per sisted in. The pupils are examined every three months and their physical condition with reference to the danger of consump- tion. is entered on their reports; no car- pets are allowed in school rooms and no dry sweeping Is permitted; the furniture is regularly washed; books are reSulai ly disinfected; promiscuous use of pcnhoid- CTS and pencils is forbidden-every pup'i must have his own, and they are advised to keep them out of their mouths. In boarding schools q severer routine Is pre- scribed and consumptive pupils are kept from school. Such a system as this, il carr led out, would in a generation or two make consumption quite as rare as small aApL

Miss Frances Griffin has a pet subject and no matter where conversation begins, she winds it up riding her hobby. In a re- cent conversation she broke in as fol- lows-appropos of nothing:
 "A recent Italian law inf1icts a penalty of disfranchising every man proven to be drunk three times. Now, not to deplete the number of voters it would be we'll to slip in his place clear-head- ed sober woman. This would be an ami able and sure way of the enfranchise- ment of women; somewhat upon the same plan by which Dean Swift turned his black stockings red. They were originally

 The beautiful new church, with it's be- loved pastor, and contemplating ladies' is expressive of the highest commendation. The all-day meeting with lunch on the grounds, was a new feature to many, and the lunch as was intended expanded into a most elegant dinner.
