Five of them have been sold, and
while $500 has been offered for the
fast of the lot, the dealer is holding
it for 5000, the price demanded by
the owner. The robes are not unus-

to use them for rugs, to retain as
curios, or for some such purpose.

Engles Raid Barnyards.

The bald eagle. which is fast dis
appearing, still has its haunts in the
vicinity of st. Mary's reservoir, es-
pecially in Mercer County. With no
food at hand the eagles have become
ferocious through hunger and are
raiding the farm yards, carrying OFF
pigeons, chickens and sheep.
Mrs. Calvin Yaney, farmers wife,
saw one of the huge birds alight In
the chicken yard and select one of the
fattest fowls on the roost. She tried
to chase away the robber. but the
eagle would not be scared until he
had secured his meal.
A farmer reports that an eagle
with a spread OF six feet from wing
to wing swooped down and carried
off one of his sheep. The farmer
folks around the reservoir are begin
ming to regard the kingly bird as
something to be dreaded rather than
revered. -Wapakoneta correspond

Woman siqamist Gets One Year.

Colorado Springs.-For the crime of
bigamy Mrs. Allie Briggs-Garvin must
serve from one year to fifteen months
in the penitentiary. Sentence was i'm
posed by Judge w. S. Morris in the
District Court.
The woman made a plea for elem
ency. Although the law held her
guilty, she said, her own conscience
told her she was innocent; that she
had married Arthur Garvin believing
Barney Briggs to be dead. Already
Mrs. Garvin has spent several months
in jail.
The case had many sensational feat

full attempt to escape from custody by
feigning illness. She was taken to st.
Francis hospital, and, "blacking up"
to impersonate a negress nurse maid
left the institution, carrying dummy
baby in her arms. She was arrested

GHOSTS PLAY MANY FRANKS.
Grab Rope from 5eIlrinser and Cut
Down Trees.

Ghostly happenings have disturbed
the town of Kirkwall. the capital or
the county of Orkney. On Wednes-
day night, says the London Daily Mall
the wife of the bellringer went to st.
Magnus cathedral to sound the curfew
at eight o'clock This is an ancient
custom still observed in the burgh.
The bell had been tolled for less than
minute, when, it is alleged, figure
suddenly appeared at the woman's
side, snatched her hands from the
rope and as mysteriously disappeared
Another morning 20 trees which
a few years ago were planted in
front of the cathedral were found to
have been cut down. The night was
a calm one, with brilliant moonlight,
and the trees were standing at one
o'clock in the morning.
Hundreds of windows have an out
look on the spot, and many people who
were still astir at three o'clock in
the morning did not hear the slightest
sound outside. Yet an hour later
every tree had been destroyed. The
police are baffled.
