The reprieve until Dec. s, for Mrs

and for the third time the woman who
was to have been hanged at Windsor

ed in order that the case may be car

grant the petition but suggested that
the points of law raised by the petit
toner were such as to be passed upon

The refusal of the judge to grant the
writ was at once followed by the filing
of an appeal. Judge Wheeler there
upon ANNOUNCED that he would render
his decision upon the question of ap-
peal late in the afternoon in order to
give Governor Bell an opportunity to
reprieve Mrs. Rogers. He gave the
attorneys to understand that he would

So far, through bloody war, not
one single wellgrounded complaint
has come from Russia or neutral
source that the Japanese were en-
ploying undue cruelty or practising
inhumanity in it's prosecution. They
have fought like demons, it is true,
but according to the rules of modern
warfare. They have respected all the
proper rights of their foe. They have
been kind to their prisoners. They
have ministered to the sick and
wounded Russian, the same as to
their own. They seem to have reached
as high plane in this regard as in all
others by which they are being meas

Again the colleges and schools of
the United States have held their
commencements and thousands of
young people have been turned out
into the world to take up the struggle
of life. The fact that in nearly every
graduating class-especislly is this
true of the preparatory schools-the
girls by far outnumber the young
men is not a trifing one. We
may well ask, what is the cause? Is
it lack of interest on the part of the boy
or Is it lack of interest on the part of
parents? In some degree both are
at fault but we are in
clined to believe that the
boy is perhaps the most to be CEN
sured. He hates to go, or he is too tired
or he is too lazy, or he can't get along
with his teacher or professor, or he
can get a good job, or thousand and
one other things. 1t is safe to say
that.in the preparatory schools at least
75 per cent of the graduates are girls.
In time it looks as though the
"brain and brawn'' of the country
would become only the Drawn of the
country, and the ladies would be the

There is more Catarrh in this section OF the

anduntil the last few years it was supposed to
be incurable. For great many years doctors
pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced 1t in
durable. Science has proven catarrh to be
constitutional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh

GENERAL NEWS.
Fast Train Wrecked.

Nineteen lives were lost in a
wreck on the Twentieth Century lin
tied at Mentor, o., Wednesday night.
More than a score were injured. AS
sistant superintendent Moon of the
Lake Shore road says the accident
looks like the result of malicious in
reference. The train ran into an
open switch which had been locked
open. The switch worked all right
when tested after the accident. Ac-
cording to reports, the fire which fol-
lowed the wreck was due to the ex-
plosion of the locomotive boiler
Many of the dead were so badly
burned as to make recognition diff
cult, and almost impossible. Later
reports state that the Is hour schedule
of the Lake Shore road between New
York and Chicago will be abolished
and the old 20 hour time re-estab-
lished.
The Peace Situation.
AS was stated last week Washing
ton has been decided upon for the
point where peace delegates from
Japan and Russia are to meet and
terms of peace are expected to be
brought about. Both countries think
they can have their representatives
in Washington by Aug. 1st, which is
about the time it is hoped steps may
be taken to end the war. The most
pressing question now is the POSSIBLE
lty of an armistice that shall prevent
further fighting until the negotiators
meet. This is considered very del
icate matter, owing to the situation
IN Manchuria. Marshal Oyama, with
over half a million men, has Gen.
Anovitch, with less than 100000, prac-
ticaily surrounded, so it is reported
and believed. In the past few days,
Oyama has pushed forward his col
umns and driven the Russians with
heavy loss from several strategic po-
sitions.
Dog Causes Auto Wreck
A little yellow dog caused an anto-
mobile accident in Woburn. Mass.
Tuesday afternoon, June 20. that re-
suited in serious injuries to three per-
sons and perhaps fatal injuries to one.
Theodore harrington, % years, of
Lowell, was pitched out of the vehi-
Gle and landed on his head. He is at
the Massachusetts, General Hospital in
critical condition. The accident &C.
CURED on Cambridge street near the
Burlington line. Gorham Cook of
Woburn, an eye witness, says that he
had stopped to sell some meat when
he saw the machine approaching. As
it neared him dog that had been
hanging around his cart sprang out
into the road. The chauffeur swerved
his car to prevent running over the
animal when larger dog got into the
way. The car passed over the sec
ond dog and as the front wheel struck
the ground again the spokes collapsed
and the auto was DETECTED into a
stone wall. 1t first drove into a tel
egraph pole with sufficient force to
crack it and smash the front of the
machine. Woburn doctors were sum-
moned, and an ambulance called to
convey young Harrington to the hos
pital.
