MINUS A TURKEY.

One boarding house on Deming street
will not have turkey for dinner New
Years unless another one is bought
and prepared to day.
Yesterday the landlady had pur.
chased one; a fine oSe-12-pounder-
and, after it had been "stuffedo and
baked to ''brown" turn, it was set out
on the back steps to cool, and then
be set away for the New Years dinner.
With her other household duties the
mistress of the house for the moment
forgot the turkey, and while her back
was turned along comes neighborinp
dog and carried the turkey. and the
napkin covering it, away.
A few moments after on looking out
on the step the turkey was missed,
and going to the door, just across the
way she saw great young Newfound-
land pup gnawing away at the carcas.
tearing great white strips of meat
from the breast, while one or two other
dogs sat patiently by waiting their turn
at the feast.
Eth! What did the landlady do? What
did she say? Well, she did nothing:
but the look on her face said something
inexpressible, and quite possible if she
had been man they would have
sounded harsh.

Wife OF the Late Col. Charles Palma
tier Expires at Her Home on
Monday Afternoon.
"A LEADER IN CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
Deceased HAD Taken an Important Part
Science Church Here.

Mrs. Annis Wheeler Palmatier
widow of the late Colonel Charles Pal
matter, and one of the best known
women of the city, expired at her
home, 476 Prairie avenue, shortly after
four o'clock Monday afternoon. Death
resulted from dropsy, from which Mrs.
Palmatier had been a sufferer for
many months.
Mrs. Palmatier had been taken iii
early in July, and since that time she
had been confined to her home most Of
the time. Six weeks ago she was
forced to take to her bed, but she bore
her suffering with a cheerful and pa
tent disposition, and the friends
watching about the bedside failed to
note the near approach of death, and
the announcement of her demise came
as great shock to her many friends.
Monday morning Mrs. Pa1matier be-
came suddenly worse, and her four
daughters were hurriedly summoned to
her bedside. She grew weaker during
the day, and at four O'clock dropped
off into that dreamless sleep that
knows no awakening.
The funeral will be held on Thurs
day morning and will be private. The
services will be conducted by Mr.. Van
Arsdale, of Racine, reader in the Chris
tan Science Church there. The re-
mains will be taken to Lake Geneva
and laid at rest by the side of those Of
her husband, who died two years ago.
The death of Mrs. Palmatier will be
deeply nourned in the city and will
come as an especially heavy loss to the
Christian Science church, in which
she was leader and tireless worker.
She was one of the first followers of
Mrs. Eddy in Kenosha. Mrs. Palma
tier was not one of the organizers of
the Kenosha church but her interest in
the church during the last few years
has done much to advance the interests
in Kenosha. Since Miss Clarkson re-
signed as First Reader in the church
Mrs. Pa1matier has filled this position.
She was an intense believer in Science
and her unwavering faith did much to
aid the church here.
AT the time of her death Mrs. Palma
tier was nearly ffty-seven years of
age. She was born in LaPorte county,
Indiana, on Dec. 81, 1845. She was
daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. Preserved
Wheeler. Many years ago Mrs. Palma
tiers parents moved to Lake Geneva
to reside and while they were living
there on Dec. "a, 1868, Mrs. Palmatier
was married to her late husband.
Twelve years ago Col. and Mrs.
Pa1matier removed to this city and
since that time Mrs. Palmatier had
taken an important place in the social
life of the city. She is survived by
four daughters, Caroline, the wife of

SHORT ITEMS.

Miss Lulu Desmond is visiting Mr..
and Mrs. M. F. Ellis.
The old year will go out to the sound
OF music and dancing feet. Every
hall IN the city has dance scheduled
for this evening and many private
entertainments will be given in many
homes in the city.
The most successful of ali romantic
dramas is "The Prisoner of Zenda,,
underlined for early presentation here.
Do not fail to witness the performance
which from an artistic and scenic
point of view is perfect
The arrangements for the Elks bali
have been perfected and the dance
promises to be the event of the year in
social circles in Kenosha. Many of
the members of the order from other
cities will be in attendance.
F. Fl. Lyman received letter from
his father, Frederick Lyman, at Geor-
giana, Fla, this morning, in which
Mr.. Lyman states that none of the
groves belonging to the Kenosha peo-
pie we're damaged by the recent cold
wave which did some damage in other
parts of the State. The letter states
that the Kenosha colony are all we'll,
and that the outlook for a good year is
very promising.
Sheriff Whitcher was called to Paris
Tuesday afternoon by the relatives of
William Shave who asked the Sheriff
to bring the man to Kenosha in order
to have an examination made as to his
mental condition. Shave was terribly
injured some time ago during a fight
with William Powell, and his friends
claim that his injuries have affected
his mind to such an extent that it is
necessary to commit him to the insane
asylum IN order that he may receive
medical treatment. The Sheriff made
careful investigation of all the Cir
cumstances of the case, and finally de-
c1ined to interfere in the matter with
out an order from the Judge, who is at
present out Of the city.

DEEDS HIS FARM TO GOD.

Answer Which Preacher Makes to an
 Aged Couples Suit Charging Fraud.
 Atlanta, Ga, August S.-A peculiar deed has been filed at Cartersville in which the Rev. w. H. Kerr transfers tract of farm land to God the Father, Christ the Son and the Holy Chest for many mercies received in hand, paid receipt whereof is hereby acknowledged, on condition that the farm is to be used for an orphans home to be known as the Kerr Orphans Home,' and that the Rev. Mr Kerr and his family are to be the Lord 8 trustees and that the land is still to be liable for Kerrs debts
 The reason for this peculiar deed has just been revealed by a suit filed here by an aged couple of the name of Cochran, members of Kerr's congrega- tfon, who charge that he defrauded them out of the land in exchange for stock of goods which he said was worth much more than it's true value, and that they were led into the trade by their confi- dence in Kerr. They ask to have the trade set aside and the land restored to them.
 In the bill filed by the Cochrans it Is charged that Kerr had no intention of devoting the land to the service of God, but that he made the deed simply to protect himself from the results of the fraud which they allege he committed

Threatening to Disturb the
 Peace of Europe
THE GRAVITY INCREASING
There May Be Procession of Events Which Will Lead to a Review by the Powers of Conditions in the Turkish Empire.

Vienna, Aug. S-The government is Macedonia, but the opinion in we'll in- formed quarters is that grave events are liable to develop before the snows come and drive the insurgents from the mountains. The insurgents appear to be well armed, and able to prosecute a vigorous campaign until winter. and resume the fighting Tn the spring. On the other hand, the Turkish troops have been five months ill the field and are further disheartened by not having received any pay. They are reported to be deserting in increasing numbers.
 It is thought here that the position of the Macedonians has been greatly strengthened by simultaneous disturb ance in Armenia, as it is considered that the latter movement is more like ly to attract sympathy from Europe and lead to a consideration Of the whole situation in the Turkish empire. One of the most prominent figures in the Balkan situation is Prince Ferdi- nand of Bulgaria, upon whose attitude at the present juncture peace or war is believed to depend. If he elects to
 
 CTS the disturbances may be confined to a few skirmishes and dynamite out rages and a Turco- Bulgarian war may be averted this year at any rate. At the same time, it is recognized that the increasing pressure of the revolu- tionary committee may force him to take action.
 King Peter of Servia is a new and unknown factor in the situation, but in view of his age, his reputation for pru- dence and his friendship for Austria, it i is thought unlikely that he will take any step to add to the existing compli- | cations.

Gut by an Eastern Kansas Tornado
It Ravaged Thickly Settled Region. Two Were Killed and Many Per- haps Fatally Injured.

Pittsburg. Kan, August S.-About halfpast l o'clock this morning a tor- nadO passed through the thickly popu- lated inning district north and east of Pittsburg, destroying hundreds of houses. mine tipples and buildings of every description. leveling to q mass of wreckage a large portion of every camp between the DeVlin- Miller shaft north of Frontenac and the Morgan shaft on the state line. and converting into ruin a strip of thickly populated territory eight miles long and couple of miles wide. leaving death and deso- lation in it's wake. At least two per sons were killed and fully sixty injured in the storm. and perhaps many others were injured whose names have not been procured.

 The storm swept acrosos the country from the northwest and whirled in a southeasterly direction, doing great damage in all of the mining camps, which are thickly clustered in that sec tion of the country. The destruction appeared to commence a the Devlin- | Miller camp known as Millerton, and 1 from there southeast through Camps F and F, Nelson, Midway, Yale, Cor l nell, Litchfield and other camps, nearly totally destroying some of them and doing terrible damage to all The prop erty loss will not be great, for most of the homes destroyed were the hum ble houses occupied by the miners anG in most cases belonged to the coal com i panieS.

THE COMMERCIAL WORLD
All That Was Gained in the Market
 Has Been Lost.

New fork, August S.--Another in crease of s4,S32, 300 in the loan account of the banks after week of such pain ful liquidation as to verge upon a panic al times upset the newly formed equan- imity of the market, and an avalanche of selling orders came into the already wavering market.
 Prices yielded with a downward plunge to the lowest prices generally for the year. Where there were .excep- lions they seemed due to the fact that traders were so busy with active stocks as not to have time to spare for eX- empt stocks. Wall street has been busy all week with attempts to explain last weeks small increase in loans without any consensus of opinion on the sub ject, so that todays more formidable increase intensified the obscurity.

FARM MEMORIES. Come Back in Food.

How often q good appetite and a cracking good meal will bring bacl, memories of old days on the farm, A mother says My eldest son who has always had a weak stomach was finally compelled to give up his position.
 "I thought I could nurse him back to health and began feeding him Grape Nuts for breakfast, and after a short time he formed such liking TOT it that concluded to give it to him for sup per too.
 He wanted me to prepare it even oftener, but 1 did not do so for I was afraid he would take a dislike to the food by getting too much of it and l felt certain it would help him if he would only continue it's use.
 He began to pick up rapidly, and now he is well and strong again. and has gone back to business, and he holds with honor a position that is very try ing to the brain. Only yesterday he said to me, 'Grape-Nuts has certainly 1 done wonders for me: I would not pass a day without it and it has such a fine 1 taste too. It puts me in mind of how We used to enjoy food on the farm
 'I first saw GrapeNuts at a luncheon one day at friends house and as soon as l tasted it I formed a liking for it My friend had formerly been sick but now she lives almost entirely upon | Grape Nuts and she is also building ur a delicate little daughter upon the food and the story she told me of what Grape Nuts had done for both of them was certainly remarkable" Name giver by Postum Co.,.

 Amos Jackson.

Hattieburg. Miss, Aug. S.-A negro, Amos Jones, was hanged by mob here tonight for shooting ;tnd mortal ly wounding Jailor M. NJ. Sexton Jones and another negro named McElroy, who were prisoners, seized Sexton. in tending to break from the jail. McEl- roy threw Sexton down. and two white youths, also prisoners. held hiin. The negroes disarmed Sexton and Jones shot him, infiiCting three wounds that are said to be fatal
 A crowd gathered outside the jail, while a deputy and several others en- tered and overpowered three of the prisoners. In the confusion McElroy escaped from the jail. The crowd out side decided to lynch Jones. Promi- nent men urged them to desist and the wounded jaiiOr sent word to leave the man unharmed.
 The mob later seized Sheriff Batson and tied him. The fire brigade was requested to turn out and help dis perse the mob, but refused. The mob then broke into a window of the jail and cut the negro out oi his cell with chisels. He was brought. out to the crowd of about 800 men and boys, a rope was tied around his neck and he was dragged through the town to Cor don creek bridge, where he was hanged to a telegraph pole and bullets were fired into his body.

For Peasants from Pope s
 Native Village
GIVEN PRIVATE AUDIENCE
Plus Recalled his Early and naPpies' Days Among the Villagers and Spoke With Regret of lis Late Elevation.

Rome. Aug S.-After receiving seV- eral cardinals, Plus x today admitted 10 private audience Signor Andreazza, mayor of Riese. the pontiff's birth place, and some of the municipal au- thorities The meeting was full of in terest as Andreazza knew the pope years ago. The mayor and his com panions are little better than peasants and present a most incongruous group in the gorgeous setting of the vatican. They were bewildered and evidently too timid to ask where they should go. so they stood huddled together twirling their hats in their hands until a guard took pity on them and sent them the right way. The pope soon put them at ease, saying, Come here and sit down with me"
 From that moment Plus spoke in the Venetian dialect. He inquired after various people in the village. recalling with satisfaction his personal inter- course with them, saying, Through out my career and even now l remen- Der with joy and emotion my youthful days among you, which were also my happiest.''
 The mayor and the villagers tried to thpitSS lielI dl titt accruing to their small village from Sarto's election and also what a great triumph it was for him personally. The pontiff answered, II cannot yet realize it. On coming to Rome, 1 was so sure of peacefully returning to my patri- archate at Venice that l am entirely unprepared for the position forced up- on me. I am working very hard. but it will take some time before I shal feel fit to thoroughly accomplish it.
