LIBBY PRISON DOOR
NOW At LUNA PARK
Relic Of Civil War That Shut Prisoners
From Liberty Carved by the
Unfortunates.

The front door of old Libby prison,
which did such efficient guard work
during the civil war, is on exhibition at
Washington Luna Park. II IS the only
part OF that historic bastile that was not
removed from its original place at the
prison TO Chicago. The door is the prop
ty OF William Mountcastle, OF Bright
wood. II Is six feet high, three feet
wide and Is IN a comparatively good
state OF preservation.
Lettering rudely carved on the old
door IS evidently the work Of the i'm
prisoned soldiers. Here are some Of the
names and dates that can be distinctly
traced:

BILLY THE KID.

One of the most amusing scenes iu the new melodrama, Billy the Kid" which Joseph Santley is presenting tlt Polls tonight, occurs in the fourth act of the play. One of the types, a southern colonel who has fought in the rebellion, carries medicine chest about with him and among the drugs are both quinine and morphine. That he may help one of the other charac- ters he gives him what he then sup poses to be some whiskey and qui- nine taking some himself and his col ored orderly takes little himself sur repti0usly. Then the colonel makes the horrible discovery that he has mistaken the bottles and that they have all taken big dose of morphine. The fun begins, for 1t being we'll known that one of the best antidotes for opium poisoning Is constant .ac- tion, the three keep constantly on the move, each momentarily expecting that he is about to go under. Hap oily the colonel's daughter makes the discovery that after all no mistake has been made and three draw a long sight of relief and sit down to rest. Billy the Kid" Is said to tell most interesting story of the life and customs of that portion of New Mexico, which is near the border and besides some excellent comedy there are many exceedingly strong and dra- matic situations. Prices 25, 35 and 50 cents. Tell 118.

 ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. 10.-Spe. cial dispatches from Siedlce, Russian Poland, relate that massacre of po- lice and soldiers began at o'clock on Saturday night, and immediately aft erward the troops attacked the Jews of that city.
 All Sunday the soldiers fired on civilians, Christians or Jews, robbing and numbering them without discrimi- nation. Hundreds of persons were killed or wounded. Three streets were devastated.
 Terrorists shot and killed two sol diers guarding government alcohol store at Siedice, and detachment of infantry rushed up and fired yolley into the crowd, killing two persons and wounding two.
 Then the terrorists retaliated by be- ginning massacre of policemen and soldiers patrolling the streets. and the infuriated troops attacked the Jewish quarter of Siedlce, destroying the houses and shops.

 Though he was fired at eight times at short range, his only injuries were six slight flesh wounds. The motive for the crime has not been established, but 1t is believed to be revolutionary act, patterned after the attack on Ger mans at Warsaw preceding the at tempt on the life of Governor General Skallon.
 Mir. Urquhart, who was unarmed, was driving in his carriage at o'clock Saturday evening when shot was fired from the pavement, the bullet passing through the back of his car riage Immediately second assailant leaped from the crowd to the step of the carriage and fired bullet which penetrated the fleshy part of his hand.
 MT. Urquhart, who Is tall and strong ly built. jumped up to grapple with his assailant, but the horse bolted, throw. ing him violently to the pavement, where he lay half stunned. His assail- ant was the first to rise and emptied the other six shots from his automatic revolver at the prostrate body, four of them going through the vice consul's waistcoat and two through the trous. CTS. Mfr. Urquhart was able to rise and pursue the man who had attacked him, but he escaped in the crowd.
