KILLS CHILDREN AND SELF.
Rhode Island Mother Locks Three in
Room and Turns on Gas.


Providence, R, Mrs. Charles
G. Checkle.. and her two children, a
girl two and q half years old, and
a child five months old, were found
dead in a bedroom in their home,
"A Battery street. The discov-
cry was made by the woman's hus-
band when he went home to supper
from the jewelry factory in which he
is employed. The woman, who is
believed to have been Respondent be-
u of continued illness, was thirty
years old.
She had secured the door of the
bedroom with a chair, turned on the
gas from a wall bracket and taking
her two children in. her arms lay
down with t*"m to await death. The
husband found a pcnciled note -:-hich
read as follows:
ITO the Dearest Man on EARTH
am unhappy and want to die, so I
might as we'll so now. You will find
pin and ring on the little girls
heart. Z love my husband. my home
and my children. Don't blame me.
In want of thought we may do harm
when we mean to do good. God
have mercy on me and forgive my
sins"

An LsG11naGe OF Iz,I5O,0OO 6aIes.

An ASEALA2Ee OF 1z,1oO,UOO 6a4ss.
Under date of Nov. 10 Messrs.
Latham, Alexander & Co.. of New
York, put forth an estimate of r.
10000 bales as the cotton crop Of
1906-'07. "This result they say,
"is the average of more than 5000
estimates addressed to us by reliable
bankers, merchants, planters and cot
ton buyers-residents of the different
cotton-growing countries in the South
and We regard it as correst as it is
possible to obtain at this date" The
crop of 1905-'06 is. given as 1885,
600 bales. The government report Of
acreage this year is stated as 1885,
448 acres larger than last year. This
paragraph is quoted from the circu-
lar referred to: "The receipts to date
have been 4,622,862 bales against f.
464,376 bales last year-an increase
Of l5S,4S6 bales, and with a proper
Tomato increase until the end of the
season the total yield of the crop
would be 11,747,7 49 bales.' This is
confusing to US. The total Of 11,747,-
749 bales just quoted does not square
with the estimate of 12,150,00O. There
is of course an explanation of the
discrepancy but we do not understand
it, unless, indeed, Messrs. Latham,
Alexander & Co., expect the proper
tomato increase in receipts from this
date to the end of the season to be
greater than during the correspond
ing perioGs last year

With Plague Virus.

Manila, Philippine Islands.-Inoc-
nlated with the virus of cholera with
which the Bureau of Science has been
trying to render the inmates Of Eili-
bid Prison immune against the
scourge Of the East, ten prisoners
have already succumbed, much to
the CONSERVATION of the authorities
here.
The experiments have been con-
Quoted under the direction of DR.. r.
r. Strong, and twenty-four prisoners
in all had the virus put into their
veins. All the ten victims died mis-
erably within a few days after their
incubation.
1t is now declared by the prysi-
clans who have been investigating
these deaIfs that the cholera Virus
became contaminated by contact with
the virus of the bubonic plague.
So strong is public sentiment here
on tho subject that Governor-Geleral
Smith has thought It expedient to
issue a statement. In it he exoner-
ates DR.. Strong and announces that
the Philippine Commission will care
for the families OF the dead.
Bilibid Prison holds 5000 inmates,
and of this number less than 100 are
white men. An outbreak of cholera
there would menace the community,
and in order to avoid this the tests
in question were made.

used in the Philippines and has been
found very beneficial. In SPAN il
has been used in thousands of cS.ses
with excellent results. In view OF
these undisputed facts, the Bureau
of Science thought itself justified in
making the experiments.

NEW YEARS CALLS
a New Drink to Replace the Old
Time "Apple-Jack."

Twenty-Five years ago the custom
OF making New Years calls was o de-
hghtful one for all concerned, until
some of the boys got more "egg-uog''
or "apple-1ack' than they could sue
cessfully carry:
Then the ladies tried to be charita-
Bile and the gentlemen tried to be as
chivalrous as ever and stand up ut
the same time.
II anyone thinks there has not been
considerable improvement made in
h last quarter Of a century In the
use Of alcoholic beverages, let him
stop to consider, among other things,
the TACT that the old custom of New
Years calls and the genteel tipping
Is nearly obsolete.
The custom of calling on ones
friends, however, at the beginning OF
the new year, is a good habit, and
another good habit to start at that
time is the use of wsll-made Postum
instead of coffee or spirits.
A Staten Island doctor has q sensi-
BILE daughter who has set Postum be-
fore her guests as a good thing TO
drink at Yule Tide, and a good way
to begin the New Year. Her father
writes:
My daughter and I have used
Postum for some time past and we
feel sure it contains wholesome food
material.
I shall not only recommend it to
my patients, but my daughter will be
most pleased to give a demonstrates
of Postum to III Christmas and New
Years callers" Read "The Road to

PETE GOLDEN IN TOWN.
The Old Six Day Racer Calling on
 Some of His Old Friends.

Peter Golden, the only and original Pete Golden, the famous six day racer has been In Waterbury for the past few days looking up old ac- quaintances and forming new ones. Pete Is still hale and hearty and ready to enter the lists at any time to compete in the six day contests. His visit here may bear fruit too for syndicate is being formed to pro- mote six day race here the coming fall. If this is given it will be for four hours night and will be open to the world. It is fifteen years since the last six day race was given in the old Casino where the new Bucking- ham building stands to-day. Many of the old racers who took part in that contest are dead, among them being Old Sport Campana, Old FL son of Meriden, Taylor the pie eater and several others. Many of the old timers are still alive and are anxious to get into the game here against young fellows who are just coming up. Such men as Pete Hegleman, Gus Guerrero. George Connors, Sam my Davis, Tracy, and Pete Golden himself would make the young chaps hustle at that. It is probable that such race will be given this fall if the arrangements can be made.
