Hand In the Affair
Arrested Here.

Four bobos were arrested here Mon

was assailed by a thug with pistol
and commanded to throw up his hanos,
uDOn nib nO was q
severe blow in the mouth, knocking
out tooth or two and hurling him
against the stock chute and cutting a
cash in his hand. The Chinaman
waited for no further demonstration,
but sought safety in flight He says
he had 5000 on his person. Night
Policeman Irwin who was ON duty
near the depot was notified at once.
He phoned Chief Simons, who was
soon on the ground but northbound
freight pulled out of the yards before
a thorough search could be made. A
message to Grants Pass resulted in
the capture of four men who were
picked off "the rods when the train
arrived there. The Chinaman was
able to give good description Of his
assailant. -

Declines Call to Colorado City.

Rev. Clark Bower, pastor of the
Christian church of Grants Pass, has
received call to the .pastorate of the
Christian church at Colorado City,
Colo, city of 5000, but practically
a suburb of Colorado Springs, being
located near that city and on the
electric line between the Springs and
Manitou. This church has been in
correspondence with Mr.. Bower for
some time past and in the call agree
to wait for him until January /.
Rev. Bower has carefully considered
the acceptance of the call and finally
decided to remain with the church in

partially owing to the enlargement
of the church building which is now
being carried on.
The work being done at the church
is the building of wing lixl0 feet
with the gable toward II street, and
the rearranging of the interior, which
will give the building a seating
capacity almost double the present
capacity. Work now under way will
amount to nearly $1,000.

An Invitation to Mr.. Bryan.

Secretary Roddy announced at the
close of the services of the Presbytcr-
ian reunion at Penmar last week,
that a well-known Presbyterian, one
known throughout the country and
all over the world, probably would be
the speaker at the next reunion; at
least a great effort would be made to
get him here. He said he would not
say who the person was, but it was
learned that he had reference to Will
liam Jennings Bryan. 1t is stated
that the committee has already writ
ten to Mr.. Bryan, asking him to
speak at Penmar next July. They
wish to get pledge from him early,
before he engages himself for this date
elsewhere.
Mr.. Bryan is an elder in the Pres
byterian Church, and during his trip
around the world has visited the Pres
byterian and other missions in the
East, and an address on missions from
him would prove of special interest.

Government for the excellent quar-
tiers it has provided for them on the
island, which is given over entirely

ally be made the home of the 5000

A New Design In Electric Elevators.

A new and extremely simple design
of electric elevator has been recently
called to the attention of the public,
and the new system is said to combine
absolute safety, economy of power,
and economy of space. In the latter
particular at least it represents great
advance over the present types. All
the driving mechanism in this case is
bolted to the under side of the car
platform, and consists entirely of Il
horizontal drum revolvcd by an cleo
trio motor. On the periphery of the
drum is fitted spiral track, which
engages and travels in two series of
rollers set in the guide posts support
ing the car. The motor being start
ed, the drum revolves, and the car
ascends or desccnds as desired. AS
to its economy, this system has the
advantage enjoyed by all electrically
driven machinery, in that it con-
sumes power only when in actual use,
and another recommendation is that
all the machinery being contained in
the elevator shaft, much valuable
floor space is saved. 1t is claimed to
be absolutely safe, and requires no
safety devices of any character. The
electric elevator of this design is par
ticularly valuable where there is an
intermittent demand for it's use and
where great speed is not required.

Alfred Belt Dead,

Alfred Belt, the well-known South
African financicr, died Monday, July
10th inst. He had been in bad health
for some time as result of stroke
of apoplcxy suffered three years ago.
He was born in 1858 in Hamburg,
Germany, of wcll-to-do Jewish par
cnts.
Was sent at the age of % years to
South Africa by a Hamburg stores
and machinery firm.
He later, discovering the possible
ties of wealth, combined and system
atized the diamond-mining interests
there.
When gold was discovered in South
Africa he was the first to work the
mines on scientific principles.
Both industries were marvclously
productive and made fabulous for
tune, his wealth being estimated at
81 900, 600, 900.
Early in 1903 Mr.. Belt had an apo
plectic stroke while in johannesburg,
and it seems that he never fully re-
gained his health. Since that time
he has lived in London.

Serious Accident.

On Saturday morning last Mrs. F. W..
Eels and three children of Waynesboro,
Pa, who have been visiting Mrs. Sarah
Craver, Mrs. Eel's mother at Lewistown,
were being driven to Thurmont enroute
for home by Mr.. Clarence Albaugh. In
front of Waters drug store, Thurmont,
Mr.. Albaugh slapped the horse with the
lines causing the horse to jump, when one
of the children, lad of years, who was
sitting en- trunk in the rear of the spring
wagon lost his balance and was violently
thrown to the street inficting an ugly
wound in his forehead and before he could
be reached the rear wheel of the heavily
loaded wagon ran over him, severely
bruising his back. He was picked up and
carried into the drug store where his
wounds were dressed by Drs. Waters
and Kefauver, eight stitches being re-
quired to sew the cut in the forehead. 1t
is feared also that he was injured intern
ally. Mrs. Eels and children returned
to Waynesboro on the 1898 train.

Goes Back to the Army.

Alfred Drcyfus who was charged
with "high treason" was on Thurs.
day last completely acquitted of the
charges on which he was condemned
as traitor, dismissed from the army
and imprisoned on DEVILS Island,
and regarding which France has been
torn for II years by the most bitter
political and racial agitation.
His vindication is twofold, the SUI
preme Court first announcing its de-
cision establishing the entire limo.
cence of the accused man and the
Ministry later deciding to present an
urgent bill in Parliament restoring
Dreyfus to the army with advanced
rank and otherwise giving the Gov.
ernment's most ample reparation.
The decision of the court was a
foregone conclusion, as exhaustive in
quiries had completely demolished the
fabric of the accusation against Drey-
fus, showing that the real culprit was
Major Count Esterhazy. The decis-
ion, therefore, annulled the condem-
nation of the Rennes court-martial
and ordered that the acquittal be post
ed and published throughout France
The main features of the decision
are as follows:
Inc court ilv i, Chat three new
facts have been established:
First-That the document from
General Mercier's secret papers pre-
sented at the Rennes court-martial in
which the initial ID" was substitu-
ted for "P." was a Justification, es-
tablishing the strong presumption OF
Dreyfus' innocence.
Second--That another document
from the secret papers in which Drey-
fus was alleged to have been shown to
have delivered to Germany the plans
for the railway mobilization never
reached the War Department author
tiles, and, therefore, Drcyfus could
not have secured possession of it.
Third-That the Rcnnes court-mar-
tial failed to hear essential testimony
calculated to establish the fact that
Dreyfus was innocent.
Even the imagination of French
, novelists has seldom if ever conceived
IA story of deeper intrigue than that
unfolded by the successive stages of
THE Dreyfus case. This famous case
had stirred France almost to the verge
of revolution, had agitated all Europe
and had aroused intense interest all
over the civilized world.
Through it all runs the romantic
thread of wife's ceaseless devotion.
Nine. Dreyfus has striven with every
means in her power to secure what
she believed was justice for her hus-
band and has ever been ready to de-
clare her firm belief, through good
and ill report, in his innocence.
In September, 1894, a spy brought
to the intelligence department of the
French War Office the torn fragments
of an unsigned note-the famous Dor
dereou, or memorandum. He said
he had found it in the waste basket
of Colonel Schwartzkoppen, the Ger
man military attache at Paris, but
subsequent developments indicated
that it was stolen before Schwartzk-
open saw it.
