Boiled in a Vat.

In New York five workmen were
Injured by the collapse Of huge lard
rendering vat in a West Fortieth
street establishment. Three Of them
will probably die. The men were at
work in the basement when the bot
tom Of tank containing many gal
Ions Of scalding grease suddenly gave
way and the men were literally boiled.
Instantly the grease became ignlted
and soon the basement was in flames.
The cries Of three men could be heard
by pedestrians in the street ano aid
was quickly rendered by the police
and fremen, but the men had almost
been boiled alive before they could be
rescued. The others were very serious
ly hurt, but probably will recover.

A Remarkable Case.

Mr.. E. W. Dodge, of Augusta, Ca,
tells The Herald OF that city Of the
following peculiar agricultural Incl
dent: A gentleman, who formerly
lived near Augusta, but now a resi-
dent OF Goldsboro, \. c., was setting
out some tiny coilard plants in his
garden in the spring Of this year, and
lost his eyeglasses, which ne oiligent-
" looked for, but couldn't find. La
ter, however, when, in the fall he was
gathering the collards for use, he vas
astonished to find bis eyeglasses
percned upon the top Of one OF the
collards, where they had fallen when
the little plant was first placed in the
ground and with which they hau

In Deadly Duel.

At Denver, Co.., Rev. Felix NJ. =Le-
pore, pastor Of Mount Carmel Catholic
church, and another Italian named
Joe Sorici, were fatally wounded to-
night in a duel supposed to have
arisen over card game they were
playing in the preist's apartment in
the church building. Father Lepore
was shot twice il the abdomen and
once in the face, and Sorici was shot
once in the abdomen. There seems to
have been no eye-witneSses to the
affair and all those who were near are
Italians and are very reticent about
the shooting. Both were taken to ST.
Joseph'S hospital, where it is said they
cannot recover.

CHARLESTON CUT OUT.
She Will Get No Profits from the
State Dispensary.

A meeting Of the state board Of con-
troll was held last week after which it
was announced that it had been
decided to withhold Charleston's pro-
fits temporarily, and the city council
and the county authorities were re-
quested to appear before the board to
show why the profits should not be
permanently withheld. AS reason for
this action, it was said in statement
given out:
''That the present endeavor to en-
force the law in Charleston as elSs-
where has resulted in no improvement
this very fact is evidently irritating
to the lawbreakers, and the efforts to
enforce the law are met in a Still
more determined spirit to hamper the
officers, and to violate the law. This
was evident from the badgering OF the
officers that led to the resolutions OF
the board in asking provision for bail.
Not only are the officers hampered in
their work in every conceivable man
ner, but the state is forced to great
expense in endeavoring to keep the
constables in their appointed duties. T"
1t was discussed and determined
that in view Of the consistent violations
of the law and the hagrant failure OF
the local authorities to enforce or
assist in the enforcement OF the law
in Charleston and the extra expense
incurred therefrom, that the school
fund should not suffer for the viola
tions Of the law and inaction OF the
local authorities, but that under sec
tion 553, Of the dispensary law, the
offending locality should pay the ex-
pense incurred, and this burden
should not fall upon other sections OF
the state, where the law is enforced
and obeyed, and where the local
authorities give their assistance and
moral support in the enforcement OF
the iaW----

Found Starving,

York Wednesday night by Detective
ShiebleS, of the Thirteenth street po-
lice station. With her was her ten
year-old son, Harry, sickly, enact
ated child. Shiebles's attention was
attracted by the child's sobbing. The
little one blinked at the dark lantern
which the detective flashed about the
cold damp cellar and clung closer to
the form beside him. The detective
kindly accosted the boy, who said that

station at about dark, and among the
white laborers who work on the Santee
bridge and section contiguous thereto,
at least $3.50 were paid, and the sup
position is that this outlaw was labor

KILLED HIMSELF.
Sad Ending of Young j. P. Caldwell.
Of Charlotte, n. @.

A Charlotte dispatch to The Colum-
bia State says J. P. Caldwell, Jr., the
l9-year-old son of J. P. Caldwell, edj-
tor of the Charlotte Observer, COM
mitted suicide Wednesday evening at
6 o'clock by shooting himself through
the heart with revolver.
There seems to be no cause for the
rash deed. For six weeks the young
man suffered from depression and sew
eral times has said he intended to kill
himself, but it was thought that the
remarks were due to despondency and
we're not based on any fixed purpose.
Young Caldwell had been up town
most of the day and started toward
home shortly after 5 O'Clock. On his
way homeward he met a friend to
whom he said be intended to do away
with himself. His statements caused
some alarm, and upon being COM
municated to a member Of Mr.. Cald-
wells family a kindly effort was made
to change the young mans frame OF
mind.
Without further discussion of his
purpose the boy walked into his faith
ers house passing through the hall
in which bis sisters were seated, and
going to his room on the second floor,
be closed the door. a second later the
pistol shot was fired. One Of bis Sis
tiers vino entered the room found it in
darkness. She made light, and then
saw that her brother was lying on his
back across his bed. He had placed
the revolver against bis left breast,
and the bullet had penetrated the
heart, producing almost instantaneous
death.
Young Caldwell had served two years
in the United States navy. Since his
return home, a year ago, he had hao
several attacks Of illness and had SUI
fered more or less from melancholla.
