many children was the defense of
Anton Hermann, who was arraigned
before Justice Prindeville charged
with failing to send his daughter,
Katie, to school. Hermann testified
that he was the father of 10 children,

81 am too poor to provide clothes
and books to send all six children to
school," he said. "I don't get much
money in the lumber yard where
work. / have been m.rried thirty
four years. Now l am living with
my second wife. My first wife died
many years ago"
1t developed that Katie, the girl
on whose account he had been forced
into court, was born on steamship.
Hermann was fined $40, but payment
was suspended on condition that
Katie should be sent to school.

McCue to Hang January 20.

Richmond, Va, January 12.-Unless
Governor Montague should see fit to
commute the sentence, j. Samuel
McCue, the former mayor of Char
lottesville, who was convicted for the
murder of his wife, will be hanged
one week from tomorrow. The Su-
preme Court of Appeals to-day re-
fused the writ of error in the case,
filed by counsel for the prisoner, after
celebrating a fortnight on the evil
dence submitted here. This is the
court of last resort. The verdict,
therefore, must stand, and the only
way by which McCue can hope to
escape with his life is through execu-
tive clemency.

"She gave me very effusive letter
of introduction, and / started out on

up in bed and was certainly doing

| sprung the letter she warmed up,
and we were soon merrily discussing
our experiences in taking various
kinds of falls out of railroad treas

like toread little note from her,
which l would be pleased to deliver
within a courle of days. Never sus-

"Then | sprung my detectives

Strange Mail Matter.

A few days ago a harmless look
ing package was mailed at the one
cent pound rate. When Mailing
Clerk Thorpe was stamping his even
ing shipment he struck a package
that his experienced hand felt suspi-
cious of. Upon investigation a rab.
bits foot was seen protruding from
the bundlet which was found to con-
tain one rabbit and six quails. The
game was not dressed and it is safe
to assume that if allowed to proceed
the contents of the bag in which it
was forwarded would soon have
looked like a choice collection of
butchers scraps. The package was
returned in less than five days.
