FIFTY SHOTS FIRED
When Smoke Cleared Away Three
Were Dead and Two Wounded.

Bedford, Ind, June 15.-As the re-
suit of a duel fought on the public
streets at Bryantsville, a town of 800
inha bitants, eight miles west of here
three are dead and two fatally wound
ed. The dead are: James Rout, aged
thirty-two; Charles Rout, thirty-six;
Milt Tow, twenty-four. Wounded
James Tow and Frank Tow
The participants in the affair were
brothers, the kout boys living in Bed
ford and the Tow brothers at Bryants-
vile. The latter are relatives of the
Tows, who were made famous by the
celebrated TOwBasS factions, whose
strife in the past decade has formed a
bloody epoch in the history of Law
renee county and southern Indiana.
The shooting followed the alleged
determination of the Rout brothers to
"get even" for some fancied insult, to
which they took exception, some days
ago. No one can be found who will
positively say who fired the first shot
but in a moment revolvers were drawn
and a pitched battle ensued. Con-
servative estimates place the number
of shots fired at fifty.

st. Petersburg, June 15.-Tne gen.
eral staff remained in session until
about 2 o'clock this morning to trans
late and give out Lieutenant General
Baron Stakelberg's message announc-
ing the fight at Vafangow. This I'M
usually late hour indicates that the
authorities attach considera BILE i'm
portance to the dispatch.
1t is thought here that the Vafangow
affair may prove to have been quite
a heavy fight. The fact that the Rus
slams hold their position in the face
of heavy losses also supports this the
DRY, and it is believed that it may turn
out to be a severe check to the Jap
anese northern advance
The movement of 5000 Japanese
north of Kuan Dian Sian only adds to
the blindness of the situation in the
northeastern field of operations. 1t is
unquestionable that the Cossacks have
been worrying the Japanese north of
Feng Wang Cheng, and the movement
may be merely an effort to clear the
country. At the same time this move
ment holds the possibility of demon
stratiOn against Mukden, one of the
main roads leading directly east from
Mukden toward the region to which
the Japanese are now advancing.
The concensus of opinion, however,
is that the advance is more in the ma
ture of a demonstration than prelim-
mary to an actual attack.
special dispatch from Lao Yang
dated June IA, says: Yesterday
(Monday) at the battle of Vafangow
Japanese troops numbering 10000 tried
to pass our flank but were discovered.
We changed our position flanking the
Japanese, and opened a heavy fire.
The result is unknown"

Geronimo at Worlds Fair.

Geronimo, the once bloodthirsty
Apache chief, who spread terror
throughout the Southwest until he
was finally captured by General
Nelson A. Miles, is one of the strik-
ing features of the Indian Exhibit
at the Worlds Fair.
Geronimo regards himself as still
a great chief because he resisted the
American Government longer than
any other Indian. He is seventy
years old and, while revered by all
Apaches, is not considered as ruling
chieftain on account of his extreme
age.
When General Miles first made
Geronimo captive, the old Indian was
sent to Florida, but in short while
he was returned to the prison at Fort
Sill. Geronimo is nominally free at
the Worlds Fair, but practically a
prisoner of war. He was accompanied
to the Exposition by Captain Sayre
of the U. S. A., under whose charge
the old Indian has been since his
stay at Fort Sill.
Geronimo spends the days in the
Indian Building at the Worlds Fair,
and as a passtime writes his auto
graph for visitors. He has special
tepee in the Apache Village and
makes his home with his tribe at
night.
OF all the tribes that roamed
Americas forests, the Apaches were
the most cruel and treacherous. And
of all the Apaches, Geronimo was the
most vicious. He fought desperately
when escape was possible by no
other means. But slaughter from am
bush and the Staying of the defence
less was the more to his choosing.
Long years of captivity has broken
his spirit but he is still warlike, proud
and erect, the true representative of
a once powerful race.

Chairman "Tom" Tappart.

The new chairman is not a man
who will worry about issues except
as they may be Of service in secur-
ing votes. He was not in sympathy
with the free-silver planks Of his
party's platform in 1896 and 1900,
but he did his utmost to help the
party win in those two campaigns.
His idea is that after the national
convention has made platform, and
the nominees of the convention have
signiiied their willingness to stand
on that platform, it is the duty Of
every democrat to march under the
party banner. His success in poll
tics in his own State may be attrib-
uted largely to his personality. He
is what in everyday parlance is call
ed a good fellow" If any person
should address him in Indiana as
Mr.. Taggart, he would in turn
look for face that he had never
seen before. 1t is "Tom" and moth
ing else. The Taggart smile, "The
smile that will not wear off, became
part and parcel OF Indiana politics
years ago. The great good nature
and the patience of the man have
been unfailing helps in many close
political battle.
He was twice elected auditor of
Marion County (the county in which
Indianapolis is located), county
normally Republican by at least two
thousand majority. In each of these
five campaigns he received the sup
port Of many Republicans, who
voted for him because they liked
him. They liked him because he
was a jovial, pushing Irishman, who
through his own efforts, had made a
place for himself in the Indiana cap
ital. Most Of them remembered him
when he wore a walters apron, and,
standing behind the restaurant in the
old union station, at indianapolis,
passed out pies and doughnuts and
coffee to the travelling public. They
recalled that he was not satisfied to
go through life handling walters
tray, and they remembered it was
not many years after he entered the
restaurant as waiter that he was its
manager. Later, he bought the eat
ing house, and with the money he
made there he purchased the Grand
Hotel, and made other investments.
The Republicans liked him because
he had shown disposition to be up
and on, and SO it was that in FIVE
elections they did full share towards
putting him in oilice.-From Chair

TEAS THAT ARE
WORTH FORTUNES
Twelve Hundred Kinds Are In China's
Show at the Worlds :air-.The Nest
Popalous Nation Of tile World For
the First Time Makes an Exhibit
Worthy OF Her Greatness.

Many eHpositions of stupendous char
acter make up the Worlds Fair of
1901. Each part is vast and distinct
show. Eac! building shelters many
acres of wonderful things-wonderfu
because they are the choicest of their
kind. Every nation ON the globe is
represented. Every state and territory
Is here with its best and making the
most of its greatest opportunity.
The fact that China has not been a
large exhibitor at worlds fairs gives
to her great exhibit here prominence
quite exceptional. 1t is wonderland
Of ingenious productions. We know
China best by reason OF her extensive
exports OF teas, which have found a
vast market III the United States for
generations. Her commercial interests
therefore prompted her TO make dis
play of teas that we should not for
get.
In sealed glass jars China displays in
the Liberal Arts Palace some 1900
kinds of tea. Young Hyson and Old
Hyson have string of tea relations
longer than the genealogical chain of n
Plymouth Rock. They are neatly Sc
lected Chops" in the language of the
ten farmer, and these classes do not
embrace medicinal teas, which are
quite another lot in the rather modest
number of 40O
The teas exhibited vary in price from
few cents Il pound to some rare and
exclusive kinds that are worth their
weight in gold, the tea in the latter
cases being placed on one side Of the
scales and pure gold on the other
that is to say. the tea of this expensive
kind is worth about $50 gold IN ounce.
Only very small quantity of this ex-
elusive leaf is exhibited. and 1t is
grown in carefully guarded tea planta-
tons or gardens right under the shad-
ows of the great wall of China. Its cul-
tivation is prohibited for any use save
for the imperial family of China and
few of the favored high officials.
Mention has been made of the word
"chop" in connection with tea, and it
may be interesting to the everyday
reader to know what the word actually
signifies. The tea leaf is grown in va
rious districts of the Chinese empire on
