VENICE HAS NO CEMETERY.
City Buries Its Dead on the Little
Island of San Michele.

The Queen of the Adriatic, as We
netians love to term the famous old
city, is privileged in many respects
and in one particular at least she is
unique among the cities of the world.
She has no cemetery. The only bury
ing ground is the little island of
San Michele, lying solitary among the
lagoons at some distance from the
city.
This is one of the boons which
Venice owes to Bonaparte, who recog-
nized the danger to population from
burial grounds in such a situation
and had all intramural graveyards
closed and ordered the dead to be
taken for burial to this island resting
place. The place is deserted all the
year except on All Souls day, and
then there is tremendous outflow
Of about 100000 persons.
AS such multitudes could never be
landed from boats a boat bridge has
to be built specially for the occasion
with strict regulations as to control
Of the living stream in it's outward
and backward flow.

WRECK VICTIMS NUMBER 10.
Three Injured in Scotland Railroad
Wreck Succumb.

Dundee, Scotland, Dec 31.-The vi
cinity of the railroad wreck of Friday
night, caused by the collision between
two trains near Arbroath, presented
a scene of havoc and desolation Sat
urday morning. The blizzard contin-
,ued to drive in from the North sea,
partially concealing the twisted
masses of debris in a mantle of white.
One of the overturned locomotives and
parts of the wreckage of the tele-
scoped coaches protruded from the
snow drifts, but the tracks were cleared
sufficiently during the day to permit
of traffic being resumed. The fireman
of the wrecked express died Saturday
morning in the hospital at Arbroath,
where all the dead and injured were
taken. The fireman lay in the snow,
pinned down under parts of the
engine cab, for eight hours. Two OF
the injured passengers also succumbed
as the result of exposure to the snow
before being succored, raising the to-
tai of deaths to 49,
l1OuS eye-WltueSSeS VI Tie dccl-
dent agree in stating that the blind
ing snow storm obscured both trains
until they were actually on the point
of colliding.
Paris, Dec. 31.-The continent is
covered with the heaviest fall Of snow
in years. Railroad traffic in France,
Spain, Switzerland and Belgium is
seriously hampered.

PokEs FUN AT CEREMONY.
Ludwig Fulda Sees Humor in Ameri.
canisms of Lecture Room.

In his Impressions of America"
Ludwig Fulda says this about the
Americanisms of the lecture room:
The speaker never ascends the ros-
trum alone. He is always accom-
panied by guard of honor. He is not
allowed to mount the tribune at once,
put Is compelled to sit in a big chair,
a sort of coronation throne. While he
sits there, like silent imperator,
some well known person, a member
OF the committee, president of the So
c1ety or head of a university, steps
forward and tells all he knows about
the guest of the evening by way of in
PRODUCTION. He tells the life story
and enumerates the books which may
have been written by the poor en-
throned man, who tries in vain to as
sumo a learned expression. The
speaker ends by pronouncing the
name of the guest in loud voice.
That is the cue for the guest to rise
and ascend to the reading desk. In
the meantime the man who made the
Introduction sits down in the vacant
chair and remains there until the lee
ture is over. I must confess that it is
not comfortable feeling to know that
while one is speaking the man in the
chair, despite all the words of praise
which he may have uttered, may be
yawning or sleeping.'

NOT A CANDIDATE, BUT WOULD
NOT DECLINE PRESIDENTIAL
NOMINATION..
EXPRESSES DOUBTS AS
TO HIS AVAILABILITY
Intimates He Had Nothing to Do with
Starting Report That He Was in
FieId-Foraker. Men Charged with
Its Origin.

Washington, Dec. Secretary
Taft gave out the following statement
Saturday regarding his attitude to-
ward the presidential nomination in
1908:
For the purpose of relieving the
burden imposed by recent publications
upon some of my friends among the
Washington newspaper correspond
ents of putting further inquiries to me,
I wish to say that my ambition is not
political, and that am not seeking
presidential nomination, that do not
expect to be the Republican candidate,
if for no other reason because of
what seems to me to be objections to
my availability, which do not appear
to lessen with the continued discharge
of my official duties; but that I am
not foolish enough to say that in
the improbable event that the oppor-
tunity to run for the great Office of
president were to come to me, l
should decline it, for this would not
be true"
Inspired by Widespread Report.
The statement issued by Secretary
Taft was inspired by the publication
throughout the country of what pur-
ported to be an authorized statement
from sources close to him in which
it was made to appear that his re-
ceptive candidacy for president had
been announced. The article in ques-
ton was a rallying cry for his friends
all over the country to begin an active
campaign to create sentiment in his
behalf. While Secretary Taft does not
say so in so many words, it is known
that he has nothing to do with in
spring the article in question.
Laid to Foraker Sources.
An effort has been made for some
time by the friends of Senator For
aker to Smoke out" Secretary Taft
on this political question. The print
ed story is said to have, originated
from Foraker sources, and it is be-
lieved by the Taft men to have been
encouraged at this time when Senator
Foraker and President Roosevelt are
engaged in controversy over the
blO"uSVllle ARRAY; OIL the result or
which it has been said Secretary Taft
will be the residuary legatee in Ohio.
The article also made it appear that
President Roosevelt was behind the
Taft movement, although not openly.
The Foraker men deny that they had
anything to do with the circulation of
the story, and ascribe it to friends of
Secretary Taft who have talked with
him recently. -

YAQUIs TORTURE AND BURN.
Men, Women and Children Slain Near
gs.sa Guaymas, Mexico.

Bisbee, Ariz., Dec. 31.-A Yaqui In
dian band attacked and destroyed the
new town of Llano, on the Cananea,
Yaqui River & Pacific railway, south
east of Guaymas, Sonora, last Satur-
day, according to reports just re-
ceived. ss\ ..,s..s' -
They murdered ten men, women
and children, fatally shot two Others
and took three women away captives
to their stronghold in the hills, not
far from the burning town.
The escape of the marauders was
preceded by a scene of indescribable
horror. While the bodies of mutilated
victims were scattered in the streets,
the women not wanted as captives
were tied to stakes and burned. Ev-
cry device which savage cruelty could
invent to add to their sufferings was
employed While they were yet
breathing the scorched bodies were
snatched from the fires and mutilated.
Half dozen men who survived the
first fierce assault were compelled to
witness the awful tragedy. One,
whose wife had been killed, made a
rush to save the remaining victims,
but was shot dead in his tracks The
others dared similar fate, and for
nearly two hours the Indians contin-
ued their barbarous carnival
There is a fort and a garrison OF
100 soldiers under command of Torres

a cage bird show at the Camberwell

There is, for instance, hybrid of a

his class. Other rare crosses include
the offspring of red poll and gold
finch, of siskin and goldfnch, of green

marked out for lack of coloring in

WHY Russian Names Are Lono,

II often hear Americans make fun
of the long Russian Names, said DR..
George L. Alexis Hamilton, a Rus
sian physician. Let me tell you why
these names are long when spelled
out in the English language. 1t is
because you have not enough letters
in your alphabet. In Russian there
are sc letters. In translating proper
noun it is often necessary to use
three or four English letters to ex-
press the sound of one Russian letter.
So sometimes name that if written
in Russian would be as short as
Smith will be almost an inch long
when spelled out in English

HILL declares HE
IS NOT TO retire
PRESIDENT OF GREAT NORTH
ERN SAYS HE CANNOT SEE
WAY CLEAR AT PRESENT..
PROBABLE ORIGIN
OF THE STATEMENT
Great Empire Builder of the North
west Recently Expressed Hope He
Might Soon Take Rest from Ac-
tive Work.

st. Paul, Mimi, Dec. 31.-J. J. Hill
has no intentions at present of re-
signing from the presidency of the
Great Northern railroad on July 1, as
stated in dispatches sent out from
Minneapolis to Chicago and New York
papers In a statement given out for
publication Saturday Mr.. Hill denies
that he intended to retire at that
time, saying that however much he
would like to be relieved of the re-
sponsibilities of his position he could
not see his way clear to do so yet
Rumor Is Not New.
The rumor that he intends to re-
sign is the result of public statement
he made two years ago when he said
he hoped before many years to trans
fer the burden of directing Great
Northern affairs to younger shoulders.
Since then periodical rumors have
been printed that Mr.. Hill intended to
retire, but each time Mr.. Hill has de-
MED them.
The statement that Mr.. Hill would
retire was printed by a Minneapolis
paper but gave no authority except
that 1t came from some one who had
a talk with Mr.. Hill. It was learned
Saturday, direct, that a committee
from the Minneapolis chamber of com.
merce had called on Mr.. Hill a few
days ago relative to new union sta.
ton in Minneapolis, and had talked
with Mr.. Hill for three hours; inform.
ant said Mr.. Hill might have been
weary, and expressed the hope that
he could soon take long rest from
active work. This, it is said, might
have been construed to mean that his
publicly expressed intention would
soon be carried out.
Will Be Succeeded by Son.
When Mr.. Hill finally does retire his
successor will be his eldest son, Louis
J. Hill, first vice president of the
Great Northern. Hill the younger
will have at his disposal the guidins
hand of the empire builder of the
northwest. y.-5 =. 49,
\ James J. Hill was born in Ontario
in 1888, and when IS years old came
