Death of Mrs. Amthor.

| Died in this city, at II O'Clock
this morning, Mrs. Louise A.
Stowe Amthor, wife of A. w.
Amthor, born at Point Isabel Nov.
20, 1882.
The sad news of the death of
Mrs. Amthor was a great shock to
her many friends, as she was ap-
parently as we'll as usual on yes
terday. She was taken suddenly
i'll this morning and passed away
after a few brief hours of suffering
Mrs. Amthor was the daughter
of the late Captain George Stowe,
who was for many years keeper of
the lighthouse on Padre Island,
and his wife, Mrs. Stowe, who
resides in Brownsville. Besides
her heart-bIOken young husband
and mother, she leaves two broth
ers, George Stowe. present keeper
of the Padre Island lighi, and
Louis Stowe, who is in the u. s.
naval service, and two sisters,
MissesRebecca and Rosa Stowe, all
of whom are grief-stricken at rhe
Su6de1 loss of their loved one.
1t is only a little over year and
a half since she was welded to. the
man of her choice, and none who
saw her so young, so fair and so
happy on her wedding morning
could have believed that so brief a
span of life and happiness awaited
her. All who knew her are sad
dened by the tragic suddenness of
her death and the deepest sympathy
is felt for the bereaved ones.
The funeral will take place to-
morrow morning at O'Clock from
the residence of Mr.. Amthor on
10th. street between Elizabeth and
Washington. The funeral service
will take place at the Catholic
church, with a High Mass of re-
QUEEN.

FOND MEMORIES OF
OTHER DAYS LONG GONE
Brought Tears to His Eyes
Yes, He Came From
Missouri.

A small coterie of the regulars were
in their places in the little cubby hole
at the rear of 'the professors to-
bacco store, on Indiana avenue, one
evening last week entertaining them
selves and one another with yarns old
and new.
The man from Loudoun county, who
always smokes a corncob pipe, told
the following:
II know a gentleman in a little
place not so very far away who keeps
hotel. He owns the establishment
and acts as proprietor, clerk, barten-
der and about everything else. Usu-
ally a good-hearted man, he is apt
to get cross sometimes and says thing
that he is afterward sorry for.
zone day not long ago, when the
wind was coming in cold blasts down
from the Blue Ridge mountains, 1t
seemed that everybody who came into
the little hosiery left the door OPP
en-, and as there were quite a num-
Der of folks coming in from the
country on that particular occasion
the hotel man got tired of jumping
up and closing the door.
AT last there came in little dried
up, weazen-faced old fellow, who
seemed half frozen. He went up to
the desk to register, blowing his fin
gers to get them warm enough to
write his name, and like all the 9TH
ers, he neglected to shut the door.
This made the proprietor of the
house very angry.
"Youi' he shouted as he went to
close the door, must have come from
Missouri and had your bringing up in
livery stable When he went back
behind the desk counter he found
the little man with tears running
down his cheeks and seemingly hurt
at the reception he had met. This
touched his heart. He apologized for
his rudeness and explained that he ha
been annoyed by so many folks COM
ing in on such cold day and leav-
ing the door open. Never mind, said
the newcomer. What you say is
true. l did live in Missouri and was
for a long time owner of a livery
stable, so that whenever l hear a
jackass bray l have to cry. 1t makes
me so homesick.'"
Then the professor" set up the
stogies and the crowd adjourned until

Third Cloudburst in a Weel .

Lexington, KY, June 1.-THE third
cloudburst in a week passed over
Central and Eastern Kentucky during
the night and this morning, doing
almost incalculable damage to crops
farmlands and lowlands along rivers.
In Clark, Montgomery, Bourbon, Bath,
Fleming, Scott, Nicholas, Lee, Wolfe,
Rowan, Carter, Boyd and other coun-
ties, corn, tobacco and wheat land was
washed by the land sliding and open
ing assures several inches deep in
the ground. In many sections crops
practically are ruined. The Kentucky,
Big Sandy, Red, Cumberland andLick-
ing rivers are threatened with mum
dation. All the riverS in the noun
tains are filled with logs, thousands
of which will be lost.
Hailstones as large as guinea eggs
fell here last night. Two valuable
brood mares were killed in Franklin
county by lightning One wasQueen
Louise, owned by George w. j. Bis
sell, of Pittsburg. Trains for Eas-
tern Kentucky are all running slow,
fearing washouts.

THROUGH SLUICE PIPE

From a Gun-Exciting Expe.
rience of WOrkmanWhO
Lost His Balance.

Drawn by suction into a sluice pipe
of the NecaXa power plant and shot
at terrible speed through the twen-
ty-inch pipe for a distance of nearly
1000 feet to the dumping pile, peon
workman, in the employ of the Mex
lean Light and Power Company land
ed on his head, then rose to his feet
and scratched his head to remember
what had happened Meanwhile the
litter of the NecaXa Hospital was on
its way to pick up the pieces, if any
appeared. The workman was engaged
with his comrades on a job near the
flume of the sluice pipe, when he
stepped back, fell into the flume, and
was drawn headlong by suction into
the sluice pipe.
The pipe which the workman enter
ed conducts a stream of water with
the earth, clay and rock for about
a third of mile, from the sluice
ditch to the dumping pile of the dam
enough to knock an elephant down,
and it goes through the pipe with a
and it goes through thee pipe with a
terrible momentum. 1t is estimated
that the workman went through the
pipe in a minute, or at the most in
two or three minutes. The fact that
he was not strangled by the water is
sufficient proof that he made a swift
journey, though he was too excited
at the time to realize what was TAX
ing place, till he was shot from
the end of the tube to the dumping
pile. Then he did not stop to think
of his marvellous escape, but started
up the mountain to resume work.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
diameter of the pipe was only 20
inches, the impelling force of the
water was such that the workman
was carried through with only a few
bruises and no serious injury, though
he was as nude as nature made him
when he landed on the dumping pile
1t was such a close shave that nc
shred of clothing was left on his back
by the time he ended his journey
and his most serious injury seems
to have been the loss of a new
pair of henequen trousers Mexican

LIABLE TO EXPLODE
Like a Powder Mill and
Do Big Damage
AT ANY TIME, IS Mr.. ROOSEVELT
Presidents Warlike and Ex-
plOsive Nature Strong
ly Condemned.

Boston. Mass, June 14.-George p.
Angel, President of the Massachu-
sets Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty TO Animals, feels bitterly to-
wards President Roosevelt, because of
the latter's attack on mature takers"
and especially the criticism on Rev.
william ]. Long. In the next issue
of Our Dumb Animals, the official
publication of the society, Mr.. Angel
will say over his own signature:
eff in his boyhood President Roose-
Welt had been humanely educated in a
band of mercy, probably he would
have written very differently about
!, the starving cattle on Western ranches
and the shooting of animals simply
for the fun of wounding and killing
them. He would not be so anxious
to put rifles into the hands of Ameri-
can schoolboys that they might be
better prepared to shoot human beings
and he would not be engaged In his
present controversy with Rev. William
j. Long, whose charming stories of
animal life are giving pleasure to
thousands of readers.
But if he had been so educated
very likely he would never have been
Assistant Secretary OF the Navy, nor
would we have been plunged into the
Cuban and Philippine Wars; nor
would he have been President of the
United States; nor. would our paper,
Our Dumb Animals have been shut
out from the Washington public
schools nor would the jamestown cell
ebration have been planned, so much
against the wishes of many eminent
Christian peace men, both Catholic
and Protestant.
I'VE tried very hard to preventMr.
Roosevelt being appointed Assistant
Secretary of the Navy, because-as
we wrote Governor Long-we felt sure
II he received that appointment we
would get into war with something
about something. We failed, and the
Cuban and Philippine wars have cost
thousands of lives, hundreds of mil
lions of dollars, an enormous increase
of our pension list, and the end is
not yet.
There can be no doubt of Presi-
dent Roosevelts courage to lead a
Balaklava charge of the 600, or ex-
plore the bottom of the Atlantic in
a submarine, or float over the top
Of the Washington Monument in an
airship to test the military value of
that kind of navigation, and there
can be no doubt that he has done
much good work since he became
President, and we hope he may do
much more before the end of his term.
But we cannot help thinking of him
as a powder mill liable at any time
to explode and do vast damage, and
we most earnestly wish that he might
have in his Cabinet as Secretary of
Peace some strong man to whose
wise counsels he would respectfully
listen"

.FEARFULLY FLOGGED
After Being Handcuffed
And Stripped.
THEN DRIVEN OUT OF TOWN
Victim Uttered no Cry of
Pain, Only Protesting
His Innocence.

Fulton, KY, June 13.-Rev. Frank
Morton Hawley, pastor of the First
Presbyterian church, and one of the
most prominent of the ministers of
Fulton, was horsewhipped by w. w.
Meadows,a leading capitalist and fore
most citizen of this city, and after
being flogged until he was prostrat-
ed, was sent from the city under
threats of death should he return.
The shocking affair which has Gre
ated the most profound sensation in
the history of Fulton is an aftermath
to the suit for divorce filed by Mrs.
Meadows a few days ago, her allega-
lions of cruelty and aversion on the
part of her husband being generally
construed as being a direct result of
her much-talked of association with
young Hawley. The Rev. Hawley
came to this city some two years ago
from Charlottesville, N. c., and be-
coming at once a most popular mem
Der of church society through his at
tractive personality, was accepted as
welcome factor in religious work of
all kinds. No breath of gossip was
associated with his name until the de-
movement of fortnight ago when
Meadows publicly denounced him in
the Meadows hotel, and ordered him
from his hosiery and forbade him his
roof. The suit for divorce by Mrs.
Meadows followed at once and Haw-
ley left town.
When it became known Monday that
the preacher would return home on
the midnight train, Meadows, togeth-
err with few of his friends, all most
prominent citizens of the city; quietly
met the train overlook Hawley as he
stepped from the station platform,
and, securing his wrists with hand
cuffs, led him to a vacant lot near
the depot, where he was stripped.
With three buggy whips he was flog-
ged, but despite the terrible agony he
uttered no whimper of pain, but again
and again declared his entire in
nocence of any harm. With tears
streaming down his cheeks, Meadows
applied the lash and upbraided the
minister bitterly, but the latter dis
played the most calm nerve, and told
his tormentor that, though he blamed
him not for his actions, he was COM
hitting a terrible mistake.
The tragic ordeal over, Hawley was
placed in a carriage and driven to
Pierce, Tenn, three miles from the
city, and there he was placed on an
outgoing passenger train. He was
made to swear that he would never
return to Fulton.
The statement of Meadows was is
sued in the Daily Leader, and in his
statement he plead justification of
his act on grounds of the unwritten
law. No arrests have followed.
Frank Morton Hawley is of fine
family, and an earnest young minis
ter. Much sympathy is accorded him,
and Meadows act was considered by
many to be hasty. Nothing has ever
in the history of the little city caused
such a shock to society as the whip
ping. The affair is on every tongue
! here to-day.
