10 be without any adequate founda-

LIVING IN A MAGIC HOUSE.
Electricity the Agent That Makes Il
the Town Wonder

A citizen Of Troyel has constructed
q house for himself which Is the won
der Of the town and, it might be add
ed, of France. Naturally, the wonder
is accomplished by means of electric
ity. There are electric wires to every
part Of the house and garden and
such a number of ingenious contriv-
ances that it looks as if he had al
most solved the domestic servant
problem.
A telephone connects every part Of
the premises with the garden gate.
AS soon as visitor rings he hears
the inquiry: who is there?7 When
he has given his name the master
welcomes him through the telephone
and the gate opens. and again closes
when the visitor has entered. In the
vestibule, before he is aware Of it,
magic brushes clean his boots, and
the door opens automatically. while
a mysterious voice tells him where to
find the master Of the house. The Vat
ter may be in his study taking cup
Of tea and the visitor has only to ex.
press wish when a second cup of tea
appears on the table in answer to the
pressure of the button. Meals are
served in the same way, and come au-
tomatically from the kitchen, news
papers and letters are deposited on
the drawing room table as soon as
they are dropped in box near the
garden gate and most of the pro-
visions for the kitchen are introduced
In the same expeditions way. Heat
and light, Of course, are distributed
at will all over the house, and at
night guest may have warm bottles
at his feet by merely pressing a but
ton.
The inventor of the magic house
has not yet altogether dispensed with
servants, but while waiting for their
entire abolition he is constantly with
In earshot Of the maid, the cook and
the gardener, and the ubiquitous tele-
phone transmits to him faithfully
every word they say to each other,
with the result that they dare not say
one disraraging word about their
master unless they are miles away
from him.

GIVEN THE Limit
Judge Lands of Chicago Fines Stand
ard Oil Nearly $3O,Ooo,oOo and is
Sorry He Couldn't t Make It More

Chicago, Iil.. Aug. 5.-Judge kene-
saw M. Lands Saturday in the United
states district court fined the Stand
ard Oil Company Of Indiana S2s,24O,-
600 for violations Of the law against
accepting rebates from railroads. Ihe
fine is the largest ever assessed against
any individuals or any corporation IN
thehistory of American criminal juris-
prudence and is slightly more than Isl
times as great as the amount received
by the company through its rebating
operations.
The case will be carried to a higher
court by the defendant company. The
penalty imposed is the maximum per-
mitted under the law and it was an
nounced at the end of long opinion
in which the methods and practices
of the Standerd Oil Company we're
mercilessly scored.
The judge, in fact, declared that
the officials of the Standard OH Com
pany who were responsible for the
practices of which the corporation
was found guilty we're no better than
counterfeiters and thieves, his exact
language being:
1--WE may as well look at this situa-
tion squarely. The men who thus de-
liberately violate this law wrong So
ciety more than does he who counter
felts coin or steals letters from the
mail"
Lands commenced reading his de-
clsion at 10 O'Clock and occupied about
one hour In its delivery. He reviewed
the facts in the case, took up the ar
guments of the attorneys for the de-
fense and answered them and chen
passed Judgment upon the company,
which, he declared, violated the law
for the sole purpose Of swelling its
dividends.
The court held that railroads have
no more right to make secret rate
for shipper than Doard OF assessors
would have to make secret assess
ment on any particular piece Of prop
eauy, aud expressed regret that tile
law failed to provide more serious
punishment than a fine but insisted
that the penalty should be sufficiently
large to act as a deterrent and not of
such size as to encourage the defender
to persist in lawlessness,
At the conclusion Of his opinion
and the announcing of the amount of
the fine, Lands directed that specia
grand jury be called for the purpose
of inquiring into the acts Of the Chi
cago and Alton Railroad company, it'll
having been proved in the case just
closed that the Oil company accepted
rebates from that corporations and a
jury is summoned for aug. II.

IDENTITY IS KNOWN|WILL OFFER RENARDI
Thomas D. McCarver Name Of Man
Killed in the Frisco Yards
Here Last Wednesday.

After remaining unidentified in the
undertaking rooms Of Lewis Rogers
from early Wednesday morning,
Wien Frisco brakeman found the
dead body of a man in the Frisco yards
near the coal chutes, until Saturday
morning when the remains were con-
signed to an unmarked grave in tie
pauper's section of the city cemetery,
the mystery surrounding the deceased
was partly cleared away Saturday af-
ternoon when Miss Bailey, who lives
on the Pat Shanahan place, near town,
recognized phograph Of the dead
man taken by Fowler as that Of a
young man who worked for Bailey on
the farm for short time. Tom d.
McCaryer was the name he gave the
Baileys, and from further develop
ments there can be no doubt as to
that being his real name and that his
home was in Nashville, Tenn.
A week ago last Saturday, McCarv-
er drew ten dollars from his employer
and left, saying he was going to Tulsa
to redeem a watch he had pawned
there, and that he would return Tues
day night to resume his labors on the
farm, and this is apparently what he
was trying to do when he met his
death.
With these facts as basis to work
on, Undertaken Rogers resumed his
efforts to locate the unfortunate
young mans relatives. A letter from
McCarver's sister, found among his
effects at the Bailey home, gave a
clue to the address OF his father, and
to him Mr. Rogers sent a telegram.
Up to the time of going to press he
had received no answer to this tele-
gram but still hopes to do SO.
Yesterday letter bearing special
delivery stamp and the postmark Of
Jellico Tenn, addressed to Tom D..
Carver was received at the local post
Office and turned over to the under
taker by Postmaster Butler, after he
had fully satisfied himself that the
letter was intended for the dead man.
The letter proved to be from a
brother Of the deceased, and is full Of
brotherly advice and touching appeals
to the way-faring one to return home
The brother appears not only to be
willing, butable and a. Gus to aid the
young man in rel ching the home that
he, like many another boy, had left
full of hopes that were never realized.
Following are a few extracts that
show the general trend Of the mes
sage that came too late: ''Tom, if
you will come home l will send you
money to come on--not to stay on, but
TO COME HOME ON. Father is getting
very feeble-is 76 years old-and can't
live long. Mother is breaking also,
and is worrying herself to death about!
you and brother viii. / think you
ought to come home and try to cheer
them in their old days. If
you want the money and can come al
once, sendIme telegram to Cookyille
and 1 VIII send you the money to
come"
The letter, which is a lengthy one,
contains much to indicate that the
man belonged to good
family; that warm and sympathetic
hearts beat for him, and that open
arms and loving kindness awaited his
home coming.

ed Slow YOUNG Men.

Nicholas Murray Butler, president Of
Columbia, advises students against de-
Gliding upon vocation too soon. Ac
cording to Or. Butler man should
not go to college with any settled
convictions as to what he Is to do. DR..
Butler holds that college is the place
to make such a decision. The oppor-
tunities there are SO many and varied
that, according to the president, every
man ought to find something to suit
him. He implies that by the end Of
his senior year a man ought to have
acquired enough knowledge to enable
him to determine his right vocation.

hension and conviction Of the murder
ers Of j. II Crawford and Wilbur Gun

ceedings will be secret. it is an

said that her son had had trouble
with ssome railroad laborers at
Seminole some months ago, when he
accidentally found letter that had
been dropped by one Of them, telling
about robberies they had been con-
nected with. When they found he
knew their secrets they gave him
terrible beating and threatened his
life If he did not leave the country.
He went away, and only few days
before his body was found here the
men disappeared.
