FIVE FALL INTO GRAVE.
Remarkable Incident That Disturbed
SoIemnity of Funeral.

Instead of the accustomed quiet
which prevails at the burial of the
dead. great excitement and fear at
tended the burial the other day OF
Michael Serene, n prominent merchant
of Westport, when by the collapsing
of grave the coffin and several per-
sons attending the services were
hurled into a small pit.
The final prayer had been said by
the preacher, and the assistant to the
undertaken stepped to the foot of the
coffin to arrange the rope for letting
the coffin into the grave. At that mo-
ment one Of the pallbearers acci-
dentally kicked out the crosspiece
that supported the coffin. The coffin
quickly descended into the grave the
body going feet first. The assistant
hastened Its descent by tumbling on
it. Several persons rushed to the
edge OF the grave, causing the soil to
yield, and in a few seconds five per-
sons were lying in the pit half covered
with dirt.
They were pulled out, the coffin was
dug out and laid fiat, and after the
grave had been redug the burial was
completed.-N. Y. Press.

DEATH IN A NEW euIsE.
Scheme That Landed a Hungarian
Judge in Town Jail.

In a little village on the Hungarian
frontier, not far from Presburg, a
peasant woman recently received 400
kronen ($S5) from her husband in
America.
She promptly deposited 1t in the
local branch of the postofiice savings
bank, and then the next day went to
withdraw the whole amount.
The bank official was somewhat sur
prised. and asked for an explanation,
when she said that Death had ap-
peared to her during the night and
threatened to take her away with him
unless she had the 400 crowns ready
for him the next night.
The gendarmes were communicated
with, and when Death" made his
promised appearance he was found to
be very much alive. in the person OF
the local Judge.
The womans money Is still In the
bank. and the judge is in jail.-Pall
Mall Gazette.

WAITING FOR THE FUN.
Younester Had Reason to Expect
Something Would Happen"

An old gentleman. rather portly and
clad in a somewhat youthful suit OF
light gray flannel, sat on a bench in
the park enjoying the day. relates the
Woman's Home Companion.
What's the matter, sonny?" he
asked small urchin who lay on the
grass just across the walk and stared
intently. why don't you go and
playa
Don't wanter," the boy replied.
But it is not natural" the old gen.
tleman insisted. for a boy to be SO
quiet. Why don't you run about?"
"Oh. I'm Just waitin'," The little fel.
low answered. I'm just awaitin' till
you get up. A man painted that

Family Not Present.

No members of the prisoners family
nor any of his friends among the So
cialist writer's and the SO-called labor
jury" who have been attending the
trial, was in the courtroom at the early
hour the verdict was returned. The
spectators benches were empty, but
in the doorway stood Governor Frank
Gooding, who has taken an active part
in pressing the prosecution of Hay
wood and his associates. There was
no demonstration other than that made
by the attorneys for the defense, and
the court proceedings were over. the
prisoner had been discharged and the
jury dismissed for the term in less
than three minutes time.
The news of the verdict was re-
ceived reluctantly in Boise. Extra eii
tions of the papers carried the It'd
ings far and wide. and during the day
there was considerable discussion in
cubs, cafes, hotel lobbies and upon
the street corners. The surprise which
had been so manifest in the courtroom
was prevalent everywhere. The long
time the jury was out had conveyed
the general impression that there could
be no other outcome than Il disagree
ment The rumors which spread so
rapidly and frequently throughout the
night, and which were as unreliable as
such rumors always are, were gener-
ally to the effect that a majority of
the Jurors had voted for conviction.
Some were even so radical as to say
that the only difference of opinion ex-
listing in the jury was as to the degree
of guilt. The apprehension of disagree
ment spread even to members of the
defendants counsel. and when to this
feeling were added the rumors of
an adverse decision. which continually
beat about their ears during the night.

Duty II Facts Are Sufficient.

"If the prosecution has failed to

FOUR AMENDMENTS
FOR LIQUOR BILL

The amendments made by the spe-
cial committee of the House regarding
the Liquor bill are only four in num-
Der, but these four are important ones.
In the first place the license fees for
retail dealers in Honolulu are cut from
$1,000 a year to $3.50 This is for Ii
censes for business conducted within
five miles of a first-class postoffice,
and the only postofice that answers to
this description is that of Honolulu.
The other fees remain as fixed by the
Senate.
There is a provision made, however,
for two more classes of licenses,
those for manufacturing Intoxicating
liquors other than wine, for term of
ten years, and to sell the same in
quantities not less than five gallons in
bulk, and to manufacture for a term
of one year wine produced by home
grown grapes and to sell the wine on
the premises where it is made. In
each case the license fee is five dollars
year.
The restrictions made upon club Ii
censes by the Senate bill, placing them
upon the same footing as a public
restaurant, have been cut out of the
Dill entirely and the provisions of Sec
ton % of the present Revised Laws
left in force. This will be something
appreciated by the various clubs.
The definition of intoxicating liquors
In the bill was cut out and the section
in the present laws substituted as be-
ing much more comprehensive
The report containing these suggest
ed amendments was presented to the
House last night and passed without
any opposition. The only member who
made any address at all upon the sub
Ject was Rawlins, the chairman of the
special committee which had consid-
cred the measure and his remarks We're

port.
