The women stopped, jumped out.

Never mind. What are you try

A Sad Story,

Ny Dear Max: My undying love
for you from childhood causes me to
do this. You promised to marry me
if would send you enough money to
come to this country. Why you have
failed to keep your promise is some
thing that I cannot understand and
so have decided to end it all. 1t is a
shame that should die so young, but
1 must. I would like to see you be-
fore I die, bat it is impossible for me
to do so. l hope, however, to see you
in the other world. Oh! what will
my parents say when they hear of
this? Good bye forever. LENA.

a TRAGIC INCIDENT
In Passage Of a Coal Mine In Penn.
: sylVania.

A telegram received at the Susque-
hanna Coal company's Office, Wilkes
barre, Wednesday evening states that
ten miners were sufocated by gas and
sulphur fumes from a small locomo-
tive this afternoon in the workings OF
the Summit Branch Coal company at
Williamstown, Dauphin county.
TIE accident was one OF the most
peculiar in the history of the antara-
cite mines and no reason for it can be
ASSIGNED by the officials. The victims
include Michael Golden, general in
side foreman Of the company, and
nine miners and laborers.
The tunnel in which the disaster
occurred is one mile in length and Is
used by the coal company to convey
the coal miners in the workings in the
Bear valley to the breaker in the VIII
iams valley.
About o'clock Wednesday after
noon Gen. Inside Foreman Golden
and about so miners boarded a loaded
train which was about to be hauled
from Bear Valley to williamson.
Everything went all right until about
half the journey was made when some
of the men attracted the attention Of
the engineer who at once stopped, and
it was found that nearly every man in
the party on the cars had been over
come by the gas and sulphur which
emanated from the stack Of the loco
motive and doated back over them.
The engineer at once crowded on all
steam possible and the unconscious
men were hurried to the Williamson
end Of the tunnel. Here help was at
once summoned and the men were
taken to the surface, where corps Of
physicians made every possible effort
to resuscitate them, but aid came too
late for Foreman Golden and the other
victims.

and jumped over low fence into a

Not wishing to call her husband from

field and attempted to drive the horse
out. The brute became infuriated at
the attempt and rushed at Mrs.

A Butter Country.

Siberia, so long stretched before the
imagination Of the world as a land OF
snow and desolation, that even now,
when the trans Siberian railway has
built, and when the productivenesS
Of that vast country is beginning to
be understood, one is rather surprised
to hear that more than $4,000, 900
worth of butter is annually exported
from Siberia. Its great plains afford
good grazing, and within three years
after the railway was opened 1000
butter manufactures were erected.
The government has now undertaken
to furnish free instructions on large
in dairying and butter making.

FOUND BOIL WEEvIL G:EMEDY.
An Ant Discovered which is the Pes.s'
Effective Eenemy.

The department. of agriculture Fri
day announced that an ant has been
found in the Guatemala that IS an
effective enemy Of the boil weeVil. It
will oe introduced into the cotton
States. The greatest significance is
attached to the discovery, which was
made by o. T. Cook, the botanist In
charge of tropical agricultural inVesti-
cations Of the bureau Of planting in
dustry. Cabled instructions have been
sent to him to report Immediately to
the department what assistance be
needs in the way Of men and money.
During a trip in Central America last
year Mr.. Cook discovered a cotton
grown by Indians which gave evidence
Of being immune from the attacks CT
the boil weevil and on orders from the
department he later began an investi-
cation in certain points in Guatemala
and Mexico. MI. Cooks inveStiga-
tions have been in more or less acces-
sible regions in the province Of Alta
Vera PaZ, Guatemala The WeeVls
are present there but the inVestiga-
tions show that they are unquestiona-
bly, kept in check by the presence OF
Of an active enemy in the shape Of q
large reddish brown ant which is at
tracted to the cotton by the food
which it secures from sets Of floral
hectares. Mr. Cooks Investigations
show that these ants spread them
selves over fields Of cotton four or FIVE
to a plant and that they are constant
ly engaged in the destruction o. the
boil weevil. Mr.. Cook reports that
the adroit and busineSslike way in
which the weeyil is disposed OF seems
to prove beyond question that the
ant is by structure and by instinct es-
pecially equipped for the work Of de-
struction and is, in short, the true ex-
PLANTATION Of :the fact that cotton is
successfully cultivated by the Indians
of Alta Vera Paz in spite Of the pres
ence of the boil Weevil.

VICTIMS OF THINGS.
Three Women Assaulted New Yale in
New Haven, Conn.

New aaven, Conn.
New Haven, Conn.,, is greatly ex-
cited over assaults committed on
young women by unknown men. The
third attack on a woman within a
month, in the aristocratlc Prospect
Hill section OF the city, occurred
Thursday-night, when short, young
negro attacked and unidentified wo-
man on Trumbull street, at it's juno
tion with Canal, knocked her down
and was throttling her when two Sis
tiers, the Misses Otis, who saw the
attack, screamed so loud that Detec-
tive-Sergeant Dunlop responded. The
negro had by this time escaped, run
ming along the canal railroad track
into the negro quarter which is only
a quarter of a mile distant. Dunlop
shouted to passers by to stop the
thug, but he got away past a dozen
person who stood near.
Detective Dunlop tried to get the
woman's story, but she refused to give
her name. She said that she was
struck from behind, that the negro
kaocked her down and she was about
to hand him her pccketbook when he
was frightened away by the screams
of the Otis sisters. While Detective
Dunlop was talking to the other young
women the one who had been attacked
fed, leaving her hat and coat in the
possession Of the detective. She said
that she was unwilling to undergo the
notoriety which would follow giving
her name.
A man hunt was organized prompt
ly, with $50 policemen, the extra de-
tective force and 500 Yale students,
and the entire vicinity was searched.
At midnight 10 trace Of the assailant
of the woman had been found. His
description talies almost exactly with
that Of the negro who attacked Au-
gussa Patterson, who lives in the
house Of Professor Yandell Hender-
son, three weeks ago, and Emily,
daughter Of Professor Richard, last
Thursday week.
