A MARKED MAN.
Ex-Convict Was Compelled to Stea
or StarVe.

Ex-Convict Was Compelled to steal
or Starve.
New York, July 16.-With a record
Of nine convictions and as many terms
in prison, George johnson has appeal
ed to police Magistrate Ommen fof
refuge in the penitentiary because he
was unable to earn an honest living
and must either steal or starve.
The magistrate granted Johnson's
plea with the provisions that he would
send him to the penitentiary in order
to keep him from temptation and in
the meantime would try to find some
work for the ex-convict where he
would not be reminded Of his past.
Johnson is So years old and well
educated. In long address to the
court he attributed his downfall I'd
gambling. After running through a
fortune left by his father, he stole
to secure the necessities OF life and
was sent to prison for five years,
There he learned the trade Of shoe
maker, but soon found he was a
marked man among fellow craftsmen
and could not retain position. He
was driven again to steal and went
through the same experience nine
times.
Johnson declared his experience,
which he told in detail, to be a com
mon one among ex.convicts and said
that, despite his repeated failures
he was determined to live an honest
life in the future.

Beers Will Observe July II as a Day
of Mourning.
Pretoria, Transvaal, July 16.-Gen-
eral Louis Botha, former commander
in chief of the Boer forces, has pub
licly requested all officers, officials
and burghers, of the late South Afri-
can republic to observe July II as
a day OF mourning for the late former
President Kruger.
He also expressed the hope that
all the old inhabitants would don
mourning for the late former President
Kruger. He also expressed the hope
that all the old inhabitants would don
mourning for a month. General Bo-
tha pays tribute to the ex-president
for his energy and his sacrifices to
make the African people a nation
and concludes:
"His death is all the sader because
ne was not permitted to spend his
last days in his own country. We
shall always feel this deeply, but will
keep silent"

When KOi FIOats In JaDan.

When the koi floats from its bamboo
pole it means trouble is brewing in
Japan. The koi is a paper fish brave in
purple and gold, orange and black, SO
skillfully made that the wind, initiating
it, sets it swirling and swerving as If
alive with an energetic tapping of its
fins. A fisherman will tell you that it
represents the carp, that mighty swim
mer which makes its way upstream
against all obstacles. A poet will af-
firm that the koi typifies predominance.
1t is all one and the same. When the
fish floats over a Japanese dwelling it
announces the birth of a male child,
but when war is imminent or in prog
ress the streets of the cities are gay
with the polychromatic emblem tiaunt-
ing and flashing before the door of
every loyal household. This Is equiva-
lent to the display of bunting In the
occident when troops go forth to war

GEORGIA LEGISLATURE.
Tax on Liquor Stirs House-state
Reformatory.

nStoTmatoFys
Atlanta, July 16.-The general fax
act was taken up for the second time
ly the house Of representatives. and
AFTER the whole session had been de.
voted to considering paragraph 16 OF
the second division, and just as the
paragraph passed, there came a mo.
tlon to reconsider and the motion was
carried. The result of this was that
aFFer hard mornings work the house
found itself exactly where it was when
started. The cause of this state
o. affairs was a heated fight which
is being made against the whisky traf-
ic by members of the house. Amend.
menr after amendment was OF .fed
to tax dispensarles and saloons heav,
!aE than they were > It year. ana
every such motion was lost. The
strongest fight was for dispensaries to
be forced to pay a revenue to me
stare.
Georgia may yet have a state re-
formatory for youthful criminals, as
the result of the action of the present
legis ature.
The bill proving for such a state
refo1matory was introduced in the
house by the special joint committee
appointed under the resolution Of Mr..
telder, of Bibb. and Of which commit.
tee Hlr. Fielder IS chairman. The
Committee was con posed, besides Mr..
FEEDER, Of Senators McMichaeI, of the
twenty fourth. ara Lee, of the forty.
fourth, and Nossrs. Dunbar, of Rich.
mond aid StoGd, of Taylor.
The bill was referred to the commit.
tee Ct the who'e house instead of one
of the regular standing committees,
with a view to h'ineing it up for early
action, ana an effort will be male to
have it fixed for the special order one
day next week. In this way 1t Is
hoped to pass it and get it over to
the senate before the heel of the ses.
sion.
The advocates of ar immigration bu.
reau, after a stubborn fight, passed
the bill providing for such a state in.
stitutiOn
The original bill providing for
board of II members and a secretary,
was abandoned and the bill as passed
was substitute by Mr. Taylor, of4hd
forty-second, prQvidlpg opl yfor the
appointment Of an immigration com
missioner.
In most other respects the substt
tute embodied all the matter Of the
original bill, but included a section per
mitting property owners, with min
eraI, agricultural, timber or other lands
for sale to register the same with the
immigration commissioner on payment
of fee. This fee was fixed at SD
originally, but the substitute was
amended so as to make the amount
$5.
An unusually large number Of sepa
tors participated in the debate, which
was exceedingly animated.

Mongo1inn sheep KiI1ers.-.

A recent traveller in Mongolia writes:
con arrival in camp a sheep is killed
for the strangers benefit. 1t is worth
going to Mongolia to eat mutton, which
is unlike any other in my experience.
No traveller who has written on the
country fails to mention it. Mission
aries, Protestant and Catholic alike,
refer to it's succulence. The method of
killing sheep is curious and unpleas-
ant The animal is thrown on its back,
when the butcher makes an ineision in
it's belly into which he thrusts his
hand, where he presumably sewers an
artery, as death ensues and the car
cass is suffused with blood. He then
takes a ladle and transfers the blood
to a receptacle at his side. No drop is
spilled"

There were five bandits in the par

the second-class coach, but without
injury to any of the passengers.
One of the robbers was apparently
badly hurt as the explosion appeared
to be premature and he was observed
to be covered with blood. The rob-

either the express or the mail and
