OF the thousands who admired the
acting OF John Mccullough few were
aware that at sixteen he could read,
but could not write, and that at eight

Of the great poet Of Avon, whose in

In after life Mccullough used to
speak gratefully Of an old chairmaker,
under whom he worked. for teuching
him two things "chairmaking and

customed to spout Shakespeare to
young Mccullough. giving n somewhat
imperfect imitation of FORESTS acting
II was this that turned NcCulloughs
thought from chairmaking to the stage.
Yet in all his after years Mccullough
was proudest of his early craft On
one occasion, at the height Of bis popu-
larlty, he was the guest Of n wealthy
Philadelphian. In the midst OF the
talk after dinner the tragedian glanced
at u chair in the room, went over to 1t

amazed host:

that the chair had lasted so long be-

wasted money on soda crackers and

MORE OREGON LAND FRAUDS
New Frauds Discovered in Connec-
ton With Oregon Land Sales.
Half n Million Acrer of SCHOOL Lands
Secured, Through Dummy Entry
acn, From the State.

Washington, Dec. 5.-The attention
Of Commissioner Richards of the gen.
eral land ofice Was called to dispatches
from Saier, Ore, concerning new
frauds discovered in connection with
the sale of lands in that state. In this
case, it appears that the lands in ques-
ton belonged wholly to the state. Not
w~ithsta1ding this fact, the general land
office has been conducting a rigid in
vestigation into these latest alleged
frauds, by which it is said 500, GOO acres
of school lands have passed from the
state by means of dummy entry men,
and through forged certificates of sale
eastern bankers and others have been
swindled out of large sums of money.
1t was explained that while the mat
ter of sale oil lands granted to the state
of Oregon by the United States for any
purpose whatever is wholly between the
state and purchasers, and is controlled
by the laws of the state. it nevertheless
rs the duty of the government, in cases
were fraud is alleged, to see to 1t that
the lands affected are not offered in ex-
change for lands of the government. 1t
is not admitted at the general land Of
flee that such offers Of exchange have
been made, but from the investigation
now going on the inference is that they
have been.

BURTON GETS HIS SENTENCE
The Kansas Senator Sentenced to
Six Months in Jail and to n
Fines AgSre$ating $4,000.

st. Louis, Dec. LIMITED States
Senator Joseph Ralph Burton, of Kan
sas, who was declared guilty Of having
used his official Office in behalf of the
Rialto Grain and Securities Co. before
the post Office department at Washing
ton, mas been sentenced to six months
in the Iron county (Mo.) Jail, and to
pay fines aggregating $500, by Judge
Willis Van Devanter in the United
States circuit court.
Judge Van Devanter pronounced
sentence on counts six and seven or
the indictment, the sentence in each
case being the same, but they are to
ruin corcurrently, making the term of
sentence and the fine identical, as if
there had been 5'it one finding.
Later the court amended the sen
tence, making the fine on one count
$4,000 and on the other $500.
Fred w. Lehman, senior counsel
for Burton, filed a writ of error which
was acknowledged, also u bill of ex-
ceptions. His motion that the writ of
error act as a s~upersedeas in the pro-
ceedings was granted, and the cast
will now have to be passed on by the
United States supreme court.
A bond for $4,000, with Richard G.
Kerens and Joseph R. Burton as sure
ties, was filed with the court.

WITH CHLOROFORM AND GAS
Handsome Young Woman Found
Dead in a Room of the Jeffer-

st. Louis, Dec. 5.-A well-dressed,
handsome young woman, registered I'M
der the name of Jessie tombstone, Oma-
ha, Neb., was found dead in her room
or the tenth floor of the Jefferson
hotel, with the gas turned on and an
almost drained bottle of chloroform on
a chair near her. That she had at
tempted suicide at least once before, is
indicated by a letter found among her
effects. 1t was torn and unsigned, writ
ten on the hotels stationary, and read:
Miss Jessie Fairchild, st. Joseph,
Mo-:
My Dear Jessie-Say, grille, just a
word of farewell. It's a sure thing
this time"
This, dated December 3, is thought
by the police to have been written just
before the woman turned on the gas.
Medical books containing her name,
but with the address scratched out, and
letters found, cause the police to be-
live that Miss tombstone was a trained
nurse.
She appears to have been about "a
| years old, was a handsome woman OF

THE RESULT OF OYERWORK
John Mitchell, President of the

Almost n Nervous Wreck.

band needed a Few days rest and

The nervous disorder with which
President Mitchell is now attacked has
been brought on by working day and
night for many months in the anthra-
cite coal districts and elsewhere. For a
long time his health has been i'm
paired, and it is thought here that In
less he improves he will be compelled
to decline a reelection rs president of
the United Mine Workers of America.
In that event he will probably move
west, where he owns a farm, and de-
vote the remainder of his life to the
problems of agriculture instead of the
more complex ones that surround the
labor question.

master-General Madden by attorneys
representing the independent watch

j.. Johnson company, of Pittsburg, and

the advertisements of persons not sell
ing the product of the companies form
ing the so-called trust, and that they
have broken advertising contracts with
wholesale dealers when such dealers
were found to be handling and selling
antitrust goods. The compliments
charge that the so-called trust endeav-
ors, by coercive methods, to drive every
dealer to the wall who does not sell its
goods, and that it appoints special agents
in certain cities and localities to under
sell dealers who have ceased to handle
its nroducts

This is exciting the population against

Officers Burning for Revenge.

racks, after removing the Jewish sol,

In view of the fact that this city is
entirely cut off from st. Petersburg
