OPiGlNS OF CUSTOMS.
Shaking Hards the Courtesy, Raising
 the Hat, Kissing.

Many c.:stoms are so common that we .l-c lost sight oc their origin. Times and habits have changed. Rel ics os olfcl da-s have been handed on acd carried down from generation to generation to our present day.
 Shaking hands :s an cXamole and began in this way: When adversaries were making g truce with one another each found it wiser to grasp the Oth CTS weapon land to insure himself against trcacher-'. The truce con- cluded, the became friends, and so the c,:stom grew as a salutation be- tween friends; even nowadays enemies do not s.:ake hands till oeace-a truce is made.
 Perhaps the modern woman discov- cred the origin of the curtesy. and that is why iJ has dropped out of use. says Home Notes. 1t one time it was the custom Cor women to go on the knee to men of rank to beg for mercy, and later it became an acknowledgment of

superiority. That is why it is still re- tained where royalty is concerned; but the example of the old country woman. who still "bobs" to the scuire's lady. is not followed by the younger genera ton. and the pretty courtesy that was the fashion when our grandmothers held s?-a: .s now forsaken and almost obsolete.
 A man when greeting a lady raises his hat. Wh- does his salutation take this form?

 What ot the oldest of old customs the kiss?
 To I-!ss IS to adore. and the word adore signifies simply to carry the hand to the mouth. Kissing the hand to tEe statue os a god was q Roman form O. adOration, and as a mode of salutation expressed reverence and worship.

LITTLE JOHNNIE JONES.

Something doing every minute evl- dently was the motto George NJ. Conan adopted when he went into the show writing business, says the Butte, Mont, Miner. In none of his produc- tions IS that sentiment a more char acteristic keynote than in Little Johnny Jones' which last night en- tertained one of the largest audiences ever assembled at the Broadway. Every seat in the big theater was oc- cupied and man- more tickets could have been sold had the seating capacity been larger. The audience certainly was ke-ed uo to the right pitch. It went for the express purpose of sec ing something exceedingly lively. of hearing snappy, catchy music and il got all of that Little Johnny Jones" was in Butte last season, but no one who sary last nights audience ever would haze suspected it.

Telephone Orders, Misunderstood
by Motormen, Said to Have
Caused Disaster.

head-on collision between an inter-

motor car and trailer, and a trac--

Friday.
The crash occurred on sharp
curve one mile west of Charleston,
Ill. A confusion of orders received
over the telephone is said to have
been the cause of the terrible acct
dent
The cars approached each other at
high rate of speed, and the impact
was so terrific that the motor car
and the trailer were telescoped by
the traction car. There was no
warning and but a few passengers
had time to escape by jumping. The
passengers. nearly all of them en-
route to the Coles county fair at
Charleston, were crushed or manned
where they sat in their seats
Some of those who escaped death
and were able to talk, say the scene
at the wreck was grewsome The
DEAD and dying were jammed together
in mass. Women were shrielling
with pain and children were crying
for unconscious mothers who were
thought to be among the dead
When the news of the wreck reach
ed Nation, special cars We're hur-
ried to the scene and the dead and
injured were brought to the morgue
and hospital here. Some of the in,
jured are in critical condition and
there is little hope for their recovery

New London, Conn, Aug. 31.-Rich-
ard Mansfield is dead. The best
known actor on the American stage
and one of the greatest actors of the
present generation passed away Fri
day morning at his home, Seven
Oaks, on Ocean avenue
Mr.. Mansfield appeared for the last
time in New York in March, after
a firing tour of the country in Peer
Gynt". His health, that had been
failing for some time, gave way and
he sought England for rest, but re-
turned to America within a few
weeks. Since that time he has been
growing steadily worse
His death was directly due to a
disease of the liver aggravated by
complications. DR.. Allen. the local
physician who has had charge of
Mansfield since he arrived from SaS-
,anac lake stated that his death was
not entirely unexpected. although
this fact has not been made public.
During the great actors last mo-
ments he was lying in a condition of
coma and did not recognize those 1t
his bedside.
There were present at the time OF
his death his wife, his brother Felix,
his young son, Gibbs, and the physi.

HANeMAN CHEATED OF VICTIM.
Pennsylvania Moose Party Decidedly
Unsuccessful.

Indiana, Pa, Aug. 31.-The first
hanging in this country for more than
twenty years took place here yester-
day and was not success, as, owing
TO the breaking of the rope, the opera
ton had to be repeated. The victim
of the law was Carmine Reno, aged
45 years and weighing IT'S pounds.
The weight of the man and the drop
OF five feet proved too much for the
strength of the rope, which snapped
when the trap was sprung, precipta-
ton Reno to the ground. The Jail
attendants hurriedly loosened the rope
around his neck while others adjusted
new rope to the scaffold, and the
man, already half dead, was carried
to the platform and the lever again
sprung. This time the execution was
successful
