INcUBATING A PAPoosE.

Little Screaming Eagle Has Wooden
 Another-Squaw is Afraid of Child.
 Little Screaming Eagle. a full -blooded Sioux Indian baby, is out at the Irene How SanItarium, FOG Jackson Boule- ward. doing her best to live up to her praenomen by shouting Justify and all most continuously. Little Screaming Eagle wants mother and wants one badly. Thus far she has known no bet ter maternal care than such as can be elicited from new patent incubator and a sterilized milk bottle
 Mrs. Screaming Eagle. the papoose's mother has fled from Chicago and is now scraping hides on the Sioux reser- vation in Wyoming. The mother was in the wreck at Haywood, in which three of Buffalo Bills braves were killed and many were crippled Or seri- ously injured. The squaw, badly hurt. was taken to the sanitarium then, and when her tiny babe came, emaciated, weak and premature, it was placed in an incubator and artificially nourished while the mother struggled back to life.
 But when the small brown infant was brought in it's glass covered cage to the squaw the latter refused to believe that ! 1t was her child.
 Machine make heap noise" won ! dered the staring mother. White man know heap too much. no like machine papoose. No medicine baby good. go home and tell my people papoose gone dead in white mans Spirit machine And so she went away, refusing to
 believe that her baby was more real than sprite, expressing her terror and l her gratitude in the same broken words, wondering to the last and yet afraid even to touch the tiny, screaming eaglet which she believd bewitched be- cause she saw it inside the glass walls of the machine of funny noises"
 l 6llVlBsIsA .sq 10 6BIdsIp sql IoJ HlI
 Mrs. How made every effort to ac- quaint the Sioux woman with the kind | ly and simple functions of the incuba- tor, but the squaw would not touch it, and at last went silently and sorrowful- lily away. Professor George How, presi- dent of the sanitarium and Irene How, the superintendent, are anxious to find a good home and kindly foster parents flor. the papoose. The little one is a
 well formed, comedy girl, with the great, sad brown eyes of her race, and the ra- lpidly accruing strength denied her by the accident which hastened her birth. There Is no longer any doubt In the minds of the nurses and internes of the lsanitarium that the Indian baby will Hive and thrive. She feeds voraciously and lacks only the fondling which even lthe most perfect incubator cannot sup ply. The mother, who is the wife of a Igreat Sioux chief, who preceded the lshow Indians to Europe for the summer lseason with the Wild West pageant, is a good and normal Indian woman of the better type. Her refusal to take or lnourish the child is based wholly upon 1.-the superstitious awe with which all Indians regard the wonders of white in- lvention, but her mental trepidation is laccentuated by the circumstances under
 (which her confinement was hastened.--

est to the general public and are as
follows:

UNFIT FOR SERVICE.

Toxic, Dec. O-Telegraphing under
date of December IS, Admiral Togo
says:
There Is no room left to doubt that
the enemy's ships in the harbor of
Port Arthur are totally unfit for serv-
ice. have reason to believe that the
battleship Sevastopol has been dis
abled by our attacks, but no definite
data on which to pass final judgment
has yet been obtained and investiga-
tions are being conducted in all avail
able quarters.
"It is certain that at least six Rus
sian torpedo boat destroyers remain
intact in the harbor."
The Japanese fired an immense
mine under portions of the north fort
of East Kekwan mountain Sunday af-
ternoon. The infantry Immediately
afterward charged and occupied the
fort with heavy force.

DRANK WOOD ALCOHOL.
Ten Men Are Dead and Two Others
Dying as Result.

Ashland, KY, Dec. 20.-Four more
men have been added to the list of six
dead and two others are reported
dying from the effects of wood alcohol
poisoning at the mouth of Beaver
river, at Big Sandy. Three others of
the party are missing. Three push
boats with a crew of II men were en-
route to Pikeville, the boats being
loaded with freight. At the mouth of
Beaver, five miles above Prestons-
burg, two of the boats sank and the
men swan and waded ashore with
much of the freight. A jug of wood
alcohol was one of the articles saved.
1t was dark and the men were
chilled and wet. Fires were built and
supper started. A man came along
and sold them four bottles of moon
shine" whisky. They drank the whisky
and wanted more. One man said:
Lets drink the alcohol" Another
said: 'Tt will kill us; see the poison
label" One of the crew began mix
ing drinks and said: Come on, lets
have our Christmas now. If it's poi
son we will all die together" They
drank the stuff and while at supper
they became violently i'll. Two doc
tors were called, but could not relieve
them.

Ice eorses Prevent Navigation.

Cincinnati, Dec. 2O.-Ice jams above
and below Cincinnati still prevent
river navigation. River men say the
floting ice in the harbor here is less
than two inches thick and is doing no
damage. At Maysville, KY, Capt.
Clifford Terrence, owner of the tow
boat M. L. Thornton and coal fleet
icebound n the harbor, is trying to
reach Ripley, o., with cargo of coal.
The people there are in great need of
fuel. Terrence is blowing a passage
through the ice with dynamite. He
was offered high prices for the coal at
Maysville, but refused to sell as there
is too much suffering at Ripley, his.
home town.

REPORT OF MR.. WALLACE.
Four General Plans Are Now Under
Consideration for the Construction
of the Panama Canal.


of the Panama Canal.
Washington, Dec. 19.-John F. Wal
lace, chief engineer of the isthmian
canal commission, has given the house
committee on commerce the benefit of
his Investigations, so far as made, re-
garding the engineering tasks to be
performed in the construction of the
Panama canal. He says:
The first plan to be considered, the
one estimated upon by the former
commission, is the practicability of a
high dam, or proper foundation for
high dam at Bohio, upon which de-
pends the advisability of constructing
a high level canal with the surface OF
the water 80 feet above sea level.
THE second plan is a summit level
of 60 feet above sea level.
"The third general plan under con-
sideration would be the construction
of a canal with a 20-foot or 30-foot
level above the sea, with single lock
at Miraflores and a single lock at
Bohio, or in the immediate vicinity;
the construction of the Gamboa dam
to be required in this instance the
same as in the 60-foot level plan.
"The fourth plan would be the con-
struction of a sea level canal with a
tidal lock at Mirafores.
Asked for an estimate Of the cost OF
the various plans, Mr.. Wallace said
the best estimate that could be mado
at present would be based on the esti,
mate of the former commission OF
5000, 100000 for 90-foot level canal.
Figuring with this as basis the 60
foot level canal would cost $225,000,-
600, could be open for traffic in ten
years and fully completed in IL years;
the 30-foot level would cost S250,000,-
600, be open for traffic in II years and
fully completed in Is years; the sea
level canal would cost $300,000,000,
could be open for traffic in 10 years
and completed in 20 years.
Work is now going on in the cut,
one American steam shovel and some
of the French machinery being in op-
Grafton. Fourteen American steam
shovels have been purchased, one of
which is being set up. The others are
to be delivered at the rate of one a
month. During October, 1895 men
were ON the pay rolls of the commits
sion.

Not only did Miss Patterson swear
that she did not kill Young, but she
denied every circumstance in the case
which the state has brought up
against her. She denied that she was
dismayed because Young was about to
leave her and go to Europe.
On the other hand she testified that
as a result of her conference with
Young, it was agreed that she should
join him in England and take apart
ments in the Hotel Cecil, London, TAX
ing care that she keep her where
abouts a secret from Mrs. Young ard
Young's relatives. An important fea-
ture brought out was the fact that
Young gave the woman a postal card
on which he wrote her name and ad-
dress.
The crowded court room became
suddenly still when the former show
girl took the stand. The first of her
testimony relating to herself was
given in low. even voice, but as she
proceeded her tones became more
tense until, in her account of the fatal
ride, her voice was filled with tragic
expression.
Early in her story Miss Patterson
told of her original meeting with
Young, of their life together and o.
their contemplated European trip.
She told of her talk with Young the
night before his proposed departure
for Southampton, of her being awak-
ened by telephone message from
him to go to the pier to see him off, of
the ride down town, of the moments in
a saloon and of the ride in the cab be-
fore the shooting.

The Railroad Casualties of a Year.

Washington. Dec. 2O.-The annual

year was unusually prolific In fatal
