SMALL TWINS.
Twenty-Five Days Old and Both
Weigh Less Than Three
Pounds.

New Orleans, La, Oct. 13.-In the
Milliken hospital there are a pair OF
twins which are probably the small
est living twins in this section of the
country, if not in the whole United
States. Together they weighed less
than three pounds, and although
they are so small they can hardly be
seen in their little beds, they are
thriving under the careful nursing
of the sisters and nurses of the Chari-
ty end Milliken hospitals.
They are boys. and although they
are only 22 days Old, they have al
ready been named. They are the
sons of Mrs. Chas. Morgan. of 1907
Annette street, who being unable
to furnish nour.shment for the ba-
bliss, took them to the hospital.

FRANCE AND ENGLAND
Would Have Stuck Together Against
Germany.

Cologne, Oct. 13.-The Cologne
Gazette today prints an inspired dis
patch from Berlin in which the Paris
Matan's' recent revelations are dis
cussed.
1t is evident the German govern
ment assumes that Delcasse believed
in good faith that France had Great
Brtain's promise of military assist
ance for war with Germany, and shap
ed his policy accordingly. If Del
casse was self-deceiyed, the dispatch
says still the practical consequences
would have been the same and wal
would have resulted from his passion
ate policy of revenge.
German views, the dispatch adds
is that the story must be taken seri-
ously until the British government
gives out formal utterance to fully
yindicate tine position of Great Brit
ain.

DYNAMITE WAS USED
ON BLIND TIGERS"
Two Supposed "Joints" Blown Up AT
Gilbertsville, Marshall County,
AT 2 A. M. Today.

This morning about o'clock, just
after the fast /. c. flyer had passed,
the residents of Gilbertsville, Mar
shall county, about "a miles above
here, were awakened by a series OF
loud explosions, followed by a gen.
eral trembling of the earth. They
arose, rubbed their eyes and peered
out into the might TO see smoke and
general confusion in the vicinity of
what wsre supposed to have been
blind tigers
Within "a few. moments after the
explosion had awakened the resi-
dents, it was generally known that
the two alleged "blind tigers" had
bsen demolished, and there was a gen
eral rejoicing.
An investigation showed that the
building, once the storehouse and
residence of Jerry Rice; deceased. had
been dynamited and both ends blown
out. Setting 20 feet away was an
other small house, used formerly as
a butcher shop, and this, too, had
been blown up pretty badly, the dam
age being SO great in both cases that
repairs would cost nsarly as much as

to rebuild, and the residents feel as
sured that az far as blind tigers ex-
isting in these places is concerned,
there is little fear to be felt.
The store house had been charged
at four different places, and Is said
to be msarly a total wreck, but the
meat house was not damaged to such
a great extent.
The property had been vacant for
some time until rented several weeks
ago, it Is alleged. By Lindo Murphy. :
Murphy had been residing at Gilberts
Vile for some time, but left yester-
day afternoon for Mayfield and waz
absent when the dynamiting was
done. Murphy was recently indicted.

.icit whiskey seliing.
1t is said that after tine explosion,
an investigation was made, and beer
and other intoxicants were found
stored in the buildings. There is no
clue to the identity of the persons
who did thls dynamit.ng. There had
been. complaint for some time OF
liquor being sold.
No one was hurt by the explosion.

VENEZUELA IN TROUBLE.
Loan With Two Countries As Result
of Report.

Washington. Oct. 13.-venezuela
was subject of an important CONVEX
sation yesterday between Secretary
Root and French Ambassador JUS
serand. The latter has been awaiting
the arrival here of the report of the
American Special Commissioner CAL
houn before recommending to his
government a course of action.
Calhoun has reported verbally to
the president and secretary.
Enough is known of the report to
show a similarity between the griev-
ance of Paris and the Washington
governments.
Whether this similarity shall find
corrollary in the parallel action on
part of the two governments to
right their grievances has not yet
been decided. 1t can be announced
that the French government already
has considered several courses of
action any one of which 1t is believ-
ed would bring President Castro to
terms. None will be adopted howev-
er, nutil Secretary Root and Jusser-
and have further considered the re-
port of Calhoun.
Meantime both governments will
bide their time, letting II be known
both are equally determined to OBJ
tain early justice for their citizens.
