More Light On Browning.

Browning had just written his poem
on the Piper of Hamelin and sent it to
the printer.
When three-fourths of it had beer
put in type the office devil leaned his
elbow on the type and pied it.
When informed of the catastrophe
Browning smiled, and with great com
posture remarked:
THAT gives me an idea
And he changed the name of the
poem to 1.-THE Piper of Hamelin."

sometimes unwittingly gives a man .

CROWDS SAW DEATHS
MORBID FRENCH PEOPLE FLOCK
TO PUBLIC EXECUTION.
Laws Direst Penalty Exacted> Amid
the Cheers of Thousands of Onlook-
ers-caiIous Criminal Excited APP
pIause by His Demeanor.

Two criminals were publicly be-
headed at Dunkirk recently amid
scene more suited to a carnival than
the grim horror of an execution, says
a Paris correspondent of the London
Express
French murderers are usually re-
prieved, owing to the authorities dis
like of the public execution which the
law entails, but there was no respite
for these two men-Jean van der Bo-
gaert and Charles Swartwaeger-who
murdered a woman named Knockaert
last December. The execution took
place in front of the prison in the
Rue Guilleminot.
The official announcement that the
execution would be a public one at
tracted an enormous number of peo-
pie to the town. and high prices were
paid in advance for seats at windows
looking on the prison.
The adjacent streets were filed
from the previous night, and animat-
ed crowds of men, women and chill
dren waiting to crafty their morbid
curiosity.
Itinerant singers and musicians
took up positions at various points in
the streets Parties sat supping at
improvised supper tables. Here and
there couples were dancing gayly to
the music of violin or guitar.
Prior to the execution the con-
demned men attended mass in the
prison chapel, Bogaert breaking out
at various stages into loud laughter
and exclaiming: "Oh, is it not pretty,
all this" How very nice it ISL
When the priest had concluded Bo-
gaert, turning to the keeper, remark
ed with a sheer: Does he not talk
beautiful" He continued his gibes
up to the very moment he was pinion-
ed by the executioners.
When he looked from the scaffold
at the sea of faces regarding him from
windows, housetops, and even the
chimneys. he shouted: "Oh, this is
really beautiful, What a splendid
sight this ISL
Then, having drained the glass oil
rum which was offered him, he quickly
kissed the crucifix which the priest
held toward him, and with a firm
step walked to the guillotine, ant
quietly laid his head in the cavity
Jubilant cheers and cries o.

vain to suppress, arose from the

at her sides, all the life that throbbed
but a moment before in her veins
seemed to be gone, chilled and killed
somehow at those few soft spoken
words. There was an instant of
strained silence and then the woman
laughed.

LOSS OF APPETITE
Gold Sweats, Twitchins Nerves and
Weakness Cured by DR.. WiiIiams'
Pink Pills.

Nature Furnishes every infraction of
her laws, and careless habits easily lead
to the condition described by Mr.. Will
liam Browne, of No. 1919 Lincoln street,
St. Joseph, Mo. Mr.. Browne is an ex-
pert timer in the employ of the National
Biscuit Co. He gives the following ac-
count of a trying experience:
90 In the spring of 1902" he says,
''while was regularly working at my
trade, grew somewhat careless i'll my
habits of eating and drinking, and finally
found that my appetite was tickle, a bad
taste fingered in my mouth, my nerves
twitched and were beyond my control,
my kidneys were out of order and cold
sweats would break out over my body at
odd times. Perhaps, while stood talk
ing with some one, this trembling
of the limbs, and profuse sweating, and
a severe chill would seize me. 1 became
alarmed at my condition and, having
read an endorsements of DIR. Williams
Pink Pills, got a box and began to use
them. They helped me at once. After
/ had used one box the twitching of the
nerves, the trouble with the stomach
and the cold sweats stopped and have
not reappeared, and my appetite is good.
have told all my friends that DIR. Will
iams' Pink Pills cured me and recon-
mend them to everybody"
Dr. Williams Pink Pills cured Mr..
Browne because nothing can strengthen
the nerves except good rich red blood
and Dr. Williams Pink Pills actually
make new blood. They don't act on the
bowels They don't bother with mere
symptoms. They drive from the blood
the cause of an@mia, indigestion, ner-
vous disorders, general weakness and
the troubles of growing girls and women.

from opiates or harmful drugs. Sold by

Greeley PecuIiarities.


William Barnes, Sr., of Albany was
a very old and intimate friend of Ho-
race Greeley.
Mr.. Greeley" said he the other
day, was peculiar in every relation
of life except when he had a pen in
his hand and a reform to write about.
Then his head was level.
His wife was just as peculiar as
he was. They had one son, Pickey,
who died young. Mrs Greeley never
permitted the boy to eat flesh or to
know that animals were killed for
food
Mrs Greeley was as earnest re-
former as Mr.. Greeley, and as indiffer-
emit as he to the conventionalities of
life Mr.. Greeley took me up to the
house once to dinner, and 1 noticed
the flour barrel standing in the front
hall There was a trail of flour from
the place where it stood out into the
kitchen thought perhaps it had just
come in and they had not had time to
move it. But, happening to pass it,
saw that it was nearly empty The
delivery man had set it down in the
hall, and it had never occurred to
either of them to move it in.o the
