MoScoyv's Magic Grove.

The cyclone which ragged around
Moscow on June 20, causing great loss
of life and tremendous damage to prop.
erty. was storm such as is seldom
seen in Russia At intervals hail Of
unusual size fell-some stones as large
as hens egg-and the wind blew with
terrific force.
Almost the first that suffered was
the historical ANONYMOUSLY grove
which eye witnesses say was leveled to
the ground as If by word Of command
This grove was called into being by
the Empress Anna. One day from her
balcony she remarked, What a beau
tiful spot-if only there was a grove
here.'
Next morning on going to her win
dow she beheld grove. The Duke Of
Biron had given orders that in the
night all the trees in the neighborhood
should be transplanted there.
SO in a single night the Annenhoffsky
grove was planted. On June 90 1t was
destroyed In second.-Londoa Mall.

vocates free love and tie breaking
up of the marriage relation. There
are all kinds OF freaks in this
world, people who for u little
cheap notoriety will sacrifice all
sence Of refinement and delicacy
that for n brief period they may
strut III the lime light. If this
woman be not an idiot and sane
SHE must know that in striking at
the marriage bond she strikes at
love itself. She must know, il
she knows anything, that there
can be no love without n bond
Love is not Il sentiment or ro-
nance. Real love is matter Of
common interest, common sacri.
fee and hope. No woman ever
really loves man until she has
passed with him literally thru the
Valley of the Shadows, thru re.
verses and successes, thru health
and sickness, aye thru disgrace
and death itself. Sorrow and
trouble only draw the bands OF
love more tightly and demonstrat,
that marriage is not connection
of society; its foundation is rs
deep as human nature itself

A TILT WITH CARMACK
TENNESSEE STATESMAN GAVE
TIllMAN WORST TONGUE
LASHiNG EVER HEARD IN MA
TiONAL CAPITAL.
Publishers Press.l


Washington, Jan. 21.-Apologies in
open session of the senate late this
afternoon by Mr.. Tillman, (South Car
olina) and Mr.. Carmack, (Tennessee)
prevented the probable arraignment OF
these two senators for violating the
rules of congress.
The trouble was caused by Mr. Till
mans references to the Tennessee
senator in a humorous characterize
ton of a number of senators for the
attitude they have taken on the
Brownsville case.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Tillman's
remarks, which, in the main had been
a violent definition of his attitude on
the race question, and the vitriolic re-
ply to speech delivered several days
ago by Mr.. Spooner, the Tennessee
senator entered the chamber. He
stood in his place, Immediately back
of Mr.. Tillman, who had resumed his
seat. Speaking in a low and very
audible voice, Mr.. Carmack gave the
South Carolinian the worst tongue
flashing the chamber has ever heard.
Among other things, he said:
THE senator from South Carolina
saw fit to allude to the fact that had
been defeated for reelection. 1t was
a report SO obvious, so easily within
the most grovelling controversial fac
ulty, that l am not surprised that it
should have been suggested to the in.
telligence of the senator from South
Carolina.
'The senator from South Carolina
did not need to lift his belly from the
dust to attain from the height of that
great retOrt.
Il believe it to be true, and l say it
with pride, that the fact of my SER
vice terminates is a matter of regret
to nearly every senator upon this side
of the chamber, and l believe to most
of the senators upon the other side of
the chamber / doubt very much
that could be truthfulIy said
with respect to either side, of the SEN
ator from South Carolina, were in my
position.
'TThe Senator from South Carolina
says that my spear is broken and
that l have taken a garland of flow
ers upon that broken spear to the
white house. Broken or unbroken,
that spear has never been dipped in
he filth of the gutter
Mr.. Tillman tried to secure recog.
milton, but Mr.. Teller, on whose time
he Tennesseean had been talking, de.
;lined to permit it, when he saw that
.rouble might follow. Upon his mo-
ion the galleries were cleared and the |
hundreds of spectators who had
them all afternoon, were re- |
moved and the doors were closed.

SAW HIGH WATER
AND Got DUCKING
William EngeIbert Rescued
from Cold Water at Cincin-
natl by Two Police.
LAUGRABLE INCIDENT
LOCAL MAN HAD LOST HIS HAT
AND WAS TRYING TO GET AN
OTHER ONE WHEN he LOST
HIS BALANCE.

William Englebert, popularity known
as Ginger Bill, went to Cincinnati
Sunday to see the great Ohio river
with it's murky black waters spreading
about the Queen city and surrounding
country.
Ginger Bill saw what he wanted
to see, and received something that
was entirely unexpected, and some
thing that makes him swear by the
''all in aIl'' that he will never go neaq
the city on the Ohio again-and that
was nothing more or less than a good
ducking.
1t all came about in this way:
Ginger" with a party of friends went
to Cincinnati over the Panhandle.
When the train reached the city and
was slowly making it's way over the
lowlands which were filled with wat
er, they stood on the back platform
to see the sights. A strong wind was
blowing and Ginger" lost his hat
Not far ahead Ginger saw the he'll
met of a policeman floating in the
water and standing on the lowed step
'Ush-Ush, he1up-helup-wow-gos hfrey
moses take me out, the waters cold
all this greeted the astonished friends
of Ginger" as they looked down -
the bobbing head of their friend, just
discernable above the ripping of the
little waves. Ginger had his helmet.
but two policemen close to the scene
saw the helmet, and thinking that
he was one of their brothers in dire
distress, went to his assistance. Gin
ger closely hugging his cast off he'll
met was dragged to the railroad
tracks, a saved man. ''Wshew" and
with it out came a goodly portion OF
the muddy waters, all from Ginger,
but still he was confronted with
difficulty, that of making his peace
with the patroImen. After much ar
guing with them, and assisted by his
friends who had hurriedly left the
train. Ginger" was rescued from the
blue coats possession although they
said they strongly tempted to give
him patrol ride for all their trouble.

TRIAL TO BEGIN TOMORROW
BECAUSE OF DELAY IN CON.
GLIDING ANOTHER CASE, THE
HEARING OF WHITES SLAYER
is POSTPONED.
Publishers PreSs.J

New York, Jan. Fl. Because of the
delay in concluding another case, the
trial of Harry Kendall Thaw, charg-
ed with the murder of Stanford White,
was this morning postponed until
Wednesday. Thaw was brought
across the Bridge of Sighs," but re-
manned in an ante room while the
court proceedings were arranged and
the time of trial set.
1t was intimated today for the first
time. that the defense will be along
the lines of emotional insanity. This
was the inference from the remark of
Lawyer Hartridge, counsel for Thaw,
that the defe<se would call medical ex-
perts.
1t is also learned that the district
believes that Evelyn Nesbit
Thaw, wife of the defendant, will, on
cross examination turn out to be the
chief witness for the prosecution.
