THE FINAL act in the tragedy 10
which Miss Mabel Pendleton and Stuart
Cav lost their lives, was closed at Gill;
ton Forge, Va, yesterday with the iu'
neral service and burial of the two young
people. At least 1000 persons followed
the remains to the cemetery, where the
bodies were laid to rest in the same
grave. The sad termination OF the
courIship and intended marriage of this
Young couple was read far and near a
few days ago. They had determined to
wed, but had been intercepted aud forced
TO return home before they could be
made man and wife The w0uld-be
bride later threw herself into the river
and her faithful lover jumped into the
water for the purpose Of rescning her,
When he drew near the young woman
she clasped her arms around his neck
and the young couple drowned in each
others embrace. Such instances in hui
man life are pathetic and appeal to the
sympathies of all who lead of them.
The lovers now sleep under the same
mound and anguish has been brought
10 a least two households. Those who
frustrated the designs of the young man
and young woman were doubtless act
uated by good motives, but could their
eyes have peered into coming events they
would have allowed the couple to carry
out their wishes.

FIFTY-ONE more men than women
were counted at the morning services in
the Lincoln Park Baptist Church, in
Cincinnati Sunday. The church pre-
scented a peculiar appearance at the ser
vice referred to, and TO casual onloOker
the careful separation in seating men
on the north side and women on the
south, with its old fashioned purltanical
congregation, was a contrast to the TWEEN
tieth century conditions. In this day
the great majority of church-goers are
women, but why this should be the case
is hard 10 understand.

BOMB
FOR SHERIFF
Set for FOrmer Sheriff
Brown at Baker
City.

BAKER CITY, Ore, oct. lam at
tempt was made at 1880 O'Clock last
night to 1assassinate former Sheriff
Harvey K. Brown at his home in this
city by blowing him up with dynac
mite bomb.
Mr.. Brown is at the hospital In a
critical condition. One of his legs was
blown off and one of his arms badly
mutiIated besides internal injuries
caused by the econcussicn.
The outrage was similar I'm manner
of execution to that which resulted in
the death of former Governor Frank
Steunenberg at Caldwell. Idaho Mr..
Brown was returning home and as he
opened his gate the bomb exploded,
wounding Mr.. Brown and blowing in
the windows of his house.
The explosion was heard in the CEN
ter of town half mile away.
The chief of police and county au-
thorities are wholly unable to fathom
a cause for the deed, nor are they able
to obtain any clue to the perpetrators
of it.
Ex-Sheriff Brown had just returned
from trip out of town to some min
ing property He was found lying on
the sidewalk several feet from the
gate, the large posts to which were
found blown to pieces and the fence
shattered for some distance. The per-
petrators left no trace of their deed
except a wire which extended about
25 feet north along the fence and
then went west about 80 feet to the
middle of the road 1t is presumed that
the assassin or assassins were lying in
wait for Mr.. Brown and pulled the wire
as he entered the gate. Immediately
after the explosion a neighbor of Mr.
Browns heard some men running north
from the direction Of the Brown house
1t is thought that Mr.. Brown had some
idea of the identity of the men who
perpetrated the outrage. for he was
heard to mutter, just before lapsing
into unconsciousness: "They have
laid for me and they got me-"
Mr.. Brown became unconscious a
few moments later and said nothing
that would give a clue to the identity
of the assassins.
