RUSSIAN PEASANTS
BEATEN TO DEATH
Terrible Cruelty of CossaCkS
Was Revealed in Trials
Held at Odessa.
IS BEYOND IMAGINATION
BEATEN FOR FOUR HOURS
AND THOSE WHO LIVED HAD
TO KILL EACH OTHER.
publishers Press1

Odessa. Oct. 2.-The evidence in
the trial here of the peasants who are
charged with burning and pillaging a
number of estates in this region re-
vealed the most horrible atrocities.
The district chief, who arrived as
soon as the devastation had been
committed had the peasants suppos-
ed to be implicated, assembled before
a company of Cossacks. He then
ordered the priests to administer the
last .sacraments of the church. The
Cessacks were then permitted to beat
the peasants, and for four hours and
a half. blow after blow was rained up
on them until the Cossacks became
tired of their brutality A number OF
the peasants were beaten to death,
while those who still lived were COM
pelled to thrash each other. 1t is
said that number of innocent per-
sons were slaughtered.
Despite these revelations 63 of the
81 peasants placed on trial were
found guilty.

THE REAL COLO. 5ELLERs

Optimistic James Hampton Is MARI
Twain Knew Him.
In the opening chapter of his Auto
biography printed in the first fort
nightly number of the North American
Review, Mark Twain tells thus of the
original Colonel Sellers:
Many persons regarded Colonel Sci
lers as fiction, an invention. an ex
travagant impossibility. and did me
the honor to call him creation" bur
they We're mistaken. | merely put him
on paper as he was. He was not per
son who could be exaggerated The in
cidents which looked most extrava-
CANT, both in the book and on the
stage, were not inventions of mine. but
were facts of his life, and l was pres
ent whep they were developed
John T. Raymond's audiences used
to come near to dying with laughter
over the turnip eating scene; but, ex-
travagant as the scene was, it was
faithful to the facts in all its absurd
details. The thing happened in Lamp
toms own house. and was present. In
fact. l was myself the guest who ate
the turnips In the hands of a great
actor that piteous scene would have
dimmed any manly spectators eyes
with tears and racked his ribs apart
with laughter at the same time. But
Raymond was great in humorous por-
trayal only. In that he was superb, he
was wonderful-in word. great. In
all things else he was pygny of the
pygmies.
The real Colonel Sellers as 1 knew
him in James Hampton was pathetic
and beautiful spirit. manly man. a
straight and honorable man, man
with a big. foolish. unselfsh heart in
his bosom. a man born to be loved. and
he was loved b. all his friends and by
his family worshiped. 1t is the right
word. To them he was but little less
than a god The real Colonel Sellers
was never on the stage. Only half OF
him was there. Raymond could not
play the other half Of him. 1t was
above his level. There was only one
man who could have played the whole
of Colonel Sellers, and that was Frank
Mayo
