Shot Sweetheart By Accident.

Rome, Ga, May 16.-Yesterday aft
ernoon at about 4:30 O'Clock Miss Jes-
sic Gillian accidentally shot and kill
ed Otis Daniel, a railway brakeman.
The shot took effect in the left temple
and died at 6 o'clock from the effects
of the wound.
Miss Gillian is a popular young lady
and, it is said, was a sweetheart of
Daniel.
The shooting occurred at the home
of Miss Gilliam's uncle, w. M. Dunn,
in East Rome, with whom she lives.
Miss Gillian claims that the shooting
was accidental; that she was seated
at the piano and Daniel handed her
his pistol and asked her to oil and
clean it and return it to him when he
returned to Rome. In some way it
was discharged. Daniel was a brother
of Mather Daniel, a prominent mer-
chant of this city.

"Have you got 10 cents?" asked a
we'll known man-about-town of a
WATERING Chestnut street cafe whom
he knew. Eyes, sir" answered the
white-aproned servitor, handing over
q dime, and wondering why a mon
eyed man should want money from.
Now" continued the man, "you are
a full-fedged member of the Lemon
Club" and with a laugh, he pocketed
the coin and sat down at the table.
The waiter smiled and served the GUS
toner and his guests with dinner.
Then he presented his bill, which
amounted to 81. The man handed
the waiter a S. bill, which the smiling
hash singer tucked away, saying:
CHOW, sir, you are a life member of
the Lemon Club" What could the
man do before his guests but laugh
and let it go at that.-Philadelphia

The Mills Will Shut Down.

New Bedford, Mass, May9.-Every
mill in this city, it is believed, will
shut down during the last week in
August, according to a vote of the
cotton mill operatives, to take their
vacation at that time. While the vote
was taken by the operatives in the
weave mills anly, it is the general
opinion that the spinning plants will
take the same step, which means that
during the last week of August prac-
tically the entire business of the city
will be suspended.

Two WOMEN WILL
HANG FOR URDE

occurs on Frluay, June fW-rTelIy
Mexican Girl Gave Rat Poison to
Her Aged Husband.
Albuquerque, N. M.-The first in
stances of the execution of a woman
in New Mexico will occur at Hills
boro, Sierra county, on Friday, June
9TH, when Valentia Madril, an edu-
Gated Mexican woman, who admins
tered poison to her husband, and
Alma Lyons, a young negress, a ser
want in the Madril family, who assist
ed in the crime will be hanged.
Mrs. Madril is 10 years old, the ne
gress is scarcely 20. Efforts are being
made to have executive clemency ex-
tended the women, but it is not likely
that the governor will interfere.
The crime for which the two women
are to pay the penalty was a cold
blooded one. The murder of Madril
was carefully planned according to
the statments of the two women be-
tween the wife, her paramour, Fran
cisco Baca, and the negro servant. a
Madril, the murdered man, waspos-
sessed of considerable property and
was one of the stable citizens of
Sierra eounty. Madril was much older
than his wife, and she soon began to
tire of him. Then Baca appeared On
the scene. He was young, of power
ul build, rode a horse as only the hill
c%ountrymen of New Mexico can ride,
and he soon captivated the young
wife.
Rough on rats was used by the wo-
man, it being suggested by Baca.
While the two women will hang, Baca
has secured a continuance Of his trial
until the September term of court.
