PARD0AS A HE|N0US SLAYER
Pieces and then Attempted
Suicide.

WORCESTER, Mass, Dec. 5.-Gov.
Guild has granted pardon to Mrs.
an inmate of the Worcester Insane
hospital since March, 1901, when she
chopped to pieces her six children at
her home at ColdbroOk Springs, and
then attempted suicide.
Mrs. Naramore at the time was
starving, and was insane. She was
committed for life.
Recently DR.. H. M. Quimby, super
intendent of the hospital reported to
the governor that Mrs. Naramore had
recovered her reason, and after per-
sonal visit and a talk with her, the
governor issued orders for her re-
lease.
Mrs. Naramore says she knows moth
ing of what happened six years ago,
excepting what the authorities nave
told her. She is a large handsome
woman, in the prime Of life, and IN
tends to leave the hospital as soon as
she finds a place to live. DR.. Quimby
told the governor that she was en-
tirely guiltless of any crime, and was
driven to her act by privation.
Mrs. Naramore's husband, who had
been earning $12 week, was out OF
employment for two months In the
winter, and the woman and her chill
dren suffered severely from cold ana
lack of nutrition. The overseer OF the
poor assisted them for a while and
Naramore finally procured employ
ment. His wife, whose mind had be-
come affected, accused him OF spend
his small earnings on other women.
The mad mother, with an axe, struck
her children on the head, killing them
in the order of their ages. She began
with Ethel, ten years old, whose BODY
she placed ON a bed. Next Walter
eight years old, was killed, and MS
bodv placed by that of his sister.
Charles, Chester and Bessie were
then slain and their bodies placed OH

the library were not aware that the
children's room was crowded with little
folks.
Miss Brubaker and Miss Ingram of
the Green Park school bring few of
their pupils each week, remaining with
them and helping them. They think
more good can be accomplished by per-
sOnal supervision of individual pupils
than by bringing a whole grade at one
time.
Mr.. James Galloway Of this city, has
presented the library with Gilbert's
Historic Sketches of Wala Walla,
Whitman, Columbia and Garfield coun-
ties, Washington Territory and UNA

tributiOn to the literature of the
northwest.
The library wishes to secure old
number of magazines. Instead of
throwing them away or storing them
in the garnet, give them to the Ii

FIGHTING BULLS.
They Are Easily Managed When
They Are Nassed Together.

They Are Easily Managed When
They Are Massed Together.
In Spain accidents to bullfighters are
of frequent occurrence, and it is inter
esisng to see the hero Of many fights
swing into the chapel attached to the
bull ring and kneel before the effigy
of the Virgin Mary before entering the
arena.
Bullfghting is the national pastime
Boys play at it in the cutters, and
there are bullights for amateurs all
over the country at which only two
year-old bulls are used and young and
old descend into the arena. AstOund
ing is the enthusiasm.
Interesting. too, is the psychology Of
bulls. When herded together they are
docile enough, and it is picturesque
sight to see the bulls brought into the
paddock prior to the fight through the
streets Of the city when all are sleep
ing A COW trained to the business,
with bell around her neck, is all that
is necessary, and the bulls follow
quietly behind her.
In the plains where the bulls are
reared men on horses manage them
quite easily SO long as they are massed
together Three bulls in the ring to-
gether would be useless for fight, but
each bull separately will fight to the
death.
Bulls literally see red. Were 1t not
that a bull will always dash at any
thing red the men in the ring would
have no chance whatever. Occasionally
bulls have what is called the evil eye
and remain Indifferent to the red capa
extended to them, and then the list OF
casualties is generally high.
Sometimes a bull which has shown
prodigious power and fight is pardoned
by the populace A COW. kept for the
purpose. is then sent into the arena,
and at sight of her the bull forgets
man and the fury Of the battle and
generally trots behind to the paddock
as meek as any heifer.
Many are the curiosities about bulls
which sometimes refuse to attack q
particular horse and when man Is
down, motionless, disdain even to paw
him. Some bulls make instinctively fol
one man and will chase him all around
the ring, leaping the barrier if he
vaults over it, and if he falls will
kneel upon his body and gore him t,
shreds. There is no mercy in bulls. and
none is shown to them.-Nineteent
Century.

TRAINS DELAYED BY WRECK
O. r. E. N. Freight Car Trucks Slip
and Traffic Goes to Portland by
Way of Pendleton.

An accident to a special freight
from Wallalula a, Lowden station at
$50 yesterday afternoon considerably
disarranged the o. r. & N. passenger
schedule between here and Portland
last night.
The trucks of a box car slipped off
the track in such a way that the car
could not be put back without wreck
ing apparatus and so the regular mixed

and a special sent via Pendleton. The
Portland passengers arrived here at
$3.50 this morning by the same way.
Just how the accident occurred the
officials here have not been informed
but say that it can be remedied in
10 minutes when the wrecking train

WAITS q YEARS FOR BRIDE
He Takes a Rear Seat When Chur1
Marries HIS Girl and Then Bides
His Time Waiting.

MIDDLETOWN, Conn, Dec. s.
Bendea Johnson, of Bolton, a hamlet
near here, waited for his bride twenty
one years, and married her today. She
was Mrs. Anna Thompson, widow of
a year, and neighbor Of her admirer
waited for her.
Way back in the SOS when they
were all young, she was Miss Anna
Termansens, with many suitors of
whom Johnson and Peter Thompson
were the favored ones. They were
warm friends, and strove with warm
rivalry, but there was no illfeeling
when the object of their hearts chose
Thompson.
Il will watt said Johnson. 81 will
settle near here, and never marry an
other"
The neighbors took him for a con-
frmed old bachelor He bought farm
adjoining the Thompson place, visited
them and trOtted their children on
his knee, and though his love was
ever green in his breast, neither hus-
band nor wife suspected that his heart
was almost broken in the face of their
happiness. Both farmers both benedict
and bachelor stored up a little wealth
by thrift, all the time continuing the
warm friends they had been in the
days of their counting. When Thomp-
son died a year ago it was Johnson
who grieved the deepest at the loss
of a friend.
Recently Johnson renewed his court
ship of the woman. He confessed to
her that he had forsworn all others
in memory of his early courtship of her
and she consented to marry him.
