Horrible Punishment.

Riga, Russia, July 9.-Horrible pun
ishment has just been inflicted by revo-
lutionists upon former member whose
treachery led to the discovery of a secret
conference and caused the death of many
of the revolutionsries and arrest of others
of the band.
The central revolutionary committees
OF Courland, Livland and Eslland used
an old mill just outside Riga for their
meeting place. A man named Sproge,
who had broken with the revolutionsries,
betrayed them to the police. Officers
went to the old mill with soldiers and
called on the revolutionsries to surren-
der. In trying TO escape thirty OF the
conspirstors were shot and killed. Many
Others we're captured.
Spogg's treacbery was discovered and
other revolutionists decided to kill him
by frightfnl tOrtures. He was captured
and taken to the same mill where the
revolutionaries had met. There he was
tied 10 the floor and loose sack with q
small hole fastened about his head. a
stream of -four was allowed to run
through the hole, dropping on his head.
Ultimately the sack was completely filled
and Spogge was slowly smOthered. His
body was only discovered today, the
revolutionaries having left him there
with a note warning other traitors that
similar or worse fate would befall in

Want Docking Facilities.

Cleveland, o., July 9.--The Press to-
day publishes the following under a
Washington date:
Gan amazing problem now confronts
the Navy Department as result OF its
determination TO send the battleship
fleet to Pacific waters. There are no
adequate docking facilities on that side
of the continent, and unless the govern
ment can make use of private docks it
will be absolutely necessary to have the
feet return to Atlantic waters a few
months after the fleets arrival in the far
East. There is the big dock Dewey at
OloDgopo in the Philippines, but as yet
there are hardly any shops at Subig bay,
or an adequate number of workmen to
take care of the ordinary repairs of
batIleship. The one dock at Mare Isl
and, San Francisco, is too small to take
battlesbips, and the only one which is
in any way equipped is that at Puget
Sound, Ore. There ought to be full
docking plant at Hawaii, also at lesst
two more naval bases ON the Pacific
coast, one in the vicinity of San
Francisco and another at San Diego or
some nearby point where adequate hsr-
Dor facilities may be had"

dictable misdemeanor for any agent of

has jurisdiction in indictments except
the Superior Courts of North Carolina,
and that il the State Superior and Gu
preme Courts should both hold the act
not repugnsnt to the federal constitution,
the federal Supreme Court could re-ex-
anime the decision upon writ of error at
instance of conyicts under the act.

TUESDAY EVENING. JULY 9, 1907.

THE experience of Miss Florence
Schenck, of Norfolk, nineteen years old,
the hardsome daughter of DR.. Schenck,
will prove a sad chapter in the life OF
the thougbtess young woman. She
arrived in New York yesterday on an At
lsntic liner repudiated by man named
He. Wilson who had pretended to marry
her last October, but who now renounces
her as his wife. She is penniless in a
strange city where she has been left to
repent at leisure Of thoughtlessly uniting
herself to a man who, she says, has
wife and children in another part of the
country. The case of tho young woman
naturally appeals to the sympathy of all
good people, but at the same time the
sad circumstances in connection with her
case should be warning TO others who
arc prone TO enter the matrimonial yoke
with men of whom they know but little.
1t is no uncommon incident for men to
take up temporary residence in cities
where their history is unknown and to
impose on unsuspec!ing females. The
latter, thrown into ecstacy by the volu-
bility and magnetism Of such chance
acquaintance, are generally inconsider-
ate, and plunge into matrimony. Too
often desertlons follow, and the victims
of such adventurers have the remainder
of their lives clouded.

San FrancIsco,s Convicted MAYOR.


Mayor Eugene E. Schmitz, of Ssr
Francisco, convicted of extortion, waI
sentenced yesterday to five years in the
penitentiary. When sentence was pro-
nounced there was q remarkable out.
burst of applause from the hundreds Of
persons who crowded Judge Dunno:
courtroom. Schmiiz must serve his
term in the Quentin penitentiary.
Sentence followed the recent convic.
ton of SchmiE fol e&torting 81, l75 from
French restaurant keepers. As the last
words fell from the judges lips, the
crowd which had stood throughout the
dramatic scene, sent up thunderous
cheer.
"GOod for your shouted a man in the
back of the room.
Several men threw their hats into the
air; others stood on chairs to look over
the shoulders Of the crowd.
Attorney Fairall, OF the defense,
raising his voice above the din, called to
Judge Dunne:
"Your honor, this cheering is very
Gently occurrence"
"Well," retorted Judge Dunno, with
spirit, "if we bal sheriff worthy OF
the name, it would have been stopped
instantly.
Sheriff Thomas O'Neill was standing
inside the rail. He turned to the court
and protested:
Nobody could have stopped it, your
honor"
Special Agent Burns of the prose-
cution, led a number of balifis, crying.
"Clear the courtroom Clear the court
rOom"
Some of the disturbers were hustled
Into the Railways. About 100 others kept
their places around the counsel table,
at which Schmitz sat, debating state
ment to newspaper men.
The sentencing of the convicted mayor
was, in one respect, without parallel in
the criminal annals of San Francisco.
Half dozeu times Judge Dunno was in
lerrupled by schmilz, who protested In
strong words agaipst, the delivery of
lecture " instead Of pronouncement
OF judgment. He accused the court of
humiisting him unnecessarily, and Civ
ing opportunity for further humiliation
by the reporting of his remarks in the
press. Once, replying to the prisoner,
Judge Dunno said;
Such brszsn ef1rontery Is probably no
more than should be expected, and it
is the duty of the court to Bear it in ps-
tience,'

Washington Statue.

Ii is said ia Richmond that there is q
movement on foot in Philadelphia to
secure q bronzs reproduction Of the Hou-
don statue of Washington to replace the
Bailey statue OF Washington which
stands 10 front of Independence Hall,
Philadelphia. The Bailey statue is now
in a state of disintegrstion and tue idea
is that it would be better to have a copy
of the famous Virginia statue rather than
attempt to restore the Bailey marble.
Houdoun's statue stands in the rotunds
of the State Capitol in Richmond and is
regarded by many as the most valuable
piece of statuary in America. The gen.
eral assembly of Virginia, soon after
pease was declared with England after
the Revolutionary war, employed Jean
Autoyne Houdon, of Paris, to make the
Washington statue. He spent fort
night with Washington at Mount Yer
non and took cast of the generals face
aud head anG the upper part of the body
and made minute measurements. Ii was
completed in three years and was placed
ia the Virginia capitol in 1896.
