Against Accused woman.

Oberlin, Ohio, Feb. &c. 7. Beckwith,
president Of the defunct Citizens Ma
tionaI bank of this city, died at lO:40
O'Clock tonight after two days of I'M
consciousness, during which dissolution
was expected at any moment. Only the
family surrounded the deathbed Of the
banker. ..
Mr.. Beckwith was about sixty-five
years old. On December IA last the
federal grand jury in Cleveland return
ed five indictments against Beckwith
,Slpon the charge of violating the ma
fional banking laws in competition with
The loans made to Mrs. Cassie L. Chad
}wick by the Citizens National bank of
Oberlin, Ohio, Of which the deceased
was the president. From the day Of
his arrest Beckwith's health failed rap
idly as a result of worry over this trou-
bles. He frequently declared during his
illness that he wanted to die. For sew
eral days prior to his death he refused
to take food in any form. Death re-
suited directly from heart trouble.
The death of President Beckwith may
materially weaken the cases of forgery
and conspiracy to misapply bank funds
now charged against Mrs. Chadwick.
1T was expected that Beckwith would be
the star witness in both the federal and
common pleas courts.
There is no way to perpetuate Beck
withs testimony. The constitution of
the United States says an accused per-
son must be confronted in court by the
accusers. A deposition or, affidavit can
not be used
An effort was made to communicate
information Of the death of the banker
to Mrs. Chadwick in Cleveland late to-
night. but the jail authorities refused to
permit it, saying that she would learn
the news soon enough in the morning
papers. She had been told on Saturday,
however, that the banker was very ill,
and she expressed regret for the fact

Scranton, Pa, Feb. 5.-In a sermon
on Child Labor at st. Peters cathe-
dral to-day, the Rt. Rev. NJ. ]. Hoban.
bishop of Scranton, came out unequiv-
ocally for permitting working boys to

After picturing the hardships many
of the boys of this community are put
to in the mines and mills, day and
night, six days a week, he criticised
those who protest against them enjoy
ing the Sabbath in harmless recrea-
tions, and added:
Il say let them play baseball or foot
ball or any other kind of ball to their
hearts content. The good Lord will be
pleased to see them do it, aver, pro-
viding they are good boys"

HOW ANIMALS FAST.
The Manner in Which Various Eeasts
-. r-. Hibernate.

A large number of species OF animals
undergo more or less prolonged n
continuous fasts during the period OF
their winter or summer Sleep Dur
ing such slumbers the more active
functions of the body are to a great
extent suspended, while those that
are carried Oh act slowly and entail
comparatively little waste OF tissue
and energy.
Moreover, before the period of the
winter torpor or Information takes
place, many animals, such as bears,
accumulate large stores of fat Oh yari
. GUS parts Of the body, which suffice to
supply all the waste entailed by the
respiratory function during the period
in question. Fat is also accumulated
by the mouse lemurs of Madagascar
previous to the summer sleep. OF aeti'
walton, and is used up in a similar
manner: their summer sleeps being
undertaken for the purpose Of avoid
ing the season Of great heat ana
drought, when food is difficult or I'M
possible to procure.
Other species, on the contrary, like
squirrels, dormice and hamsters, lay
up supplies. of food in their winter
quarters, on which they feed during
waking intervals in the torpor, SO that
the last is by no mean so prolonged
or so continuous as in the case OF the
first, group. There are, however. yet
other animals, such as bats among
mammals, frogs and toads among am
phibians, ard the West African lung
fish among fishes, which, apparently.
neither put on fat nor lay up a store
Of food during their period of torpor,
which, in the case Of all of. them, is
unusually prolonged.
Bats, for instance. generally remain
torpid throughout the winter months,
while the African lung fish passes the
whole of the dry season comfortably
sealed up within'a nest formed by the
caked and dry mud of the river bed.
