AND SHE BELIEVED HIM.
After This Who Can Doubt the Power
 of Love?

George had been away on business for a whole long week, and during that time he had sent Clara ten let ters, six letter-cards and 42 picture postcards.
 Why, then, was there touch of coldness in her greeting when he flew to her arms on his return?
 Dearest" he whispered, what is the matter?"
 "Oh, George" she said, "you didn't send a kiss in your ninth letter."
 My precious" he replied, that night I had steak and onions for din. ner, and you wouldn't have liked a kiss after onions, would you?"
 And, such is the unfathomable pow. CT of love, she was satisfied, and nes. tied to him.

COAL NINE VICTIMS.
Explosion i'm Pennsylvania Coal Mine
Kills Four Men.

Mine Inspector Henry Loutett n
the miners who volunteered for res
cue work in Mine No. l of the Els
worth Galleries Company, at Els
worth, Pa, where an explosion oc-
Cured early Thursday, have complet-
ed their search of the mine and report
that only four men were killed.
There were over one hundred men
at work at the time and their scape is
due to the fact that the explosion
hammered at a point beyond Where
they we're working. The explosion re-
shifting from the victims striking a
pocket of gas while at work far back
in the mine and ahead of the air
supplied by the ventilating system
Fire followed the explosion, which
was terrific, but the affected sections
have been bratticed and the damage
will not be heavy. This was the
second explosion in the mine, u no
deaths resulted from the first. In
spectors regarded the mine as gaseous
to a dangerous degree and protested
against it being equipped with cleo
trical appliances, but their protests
were denied on the hearing OF the
suit against the company.

At Hot Springs Ark, four masked
men with leveled revolvers entered
the club house of the Indian club on
Central avenue early Wednesday,
forced the occupants to line up along
side the wall and looted the place OF
a large amount of money.
The occupants were then locked in
to a room and the robbers escaped
No definite statement concerning the
amount of money taken can be Sc
cured but it is estimated at between
$1,000 and $4,000.
After gathering up all the money
in sight the robbers forced the oc-

the door was locked. The robbers
fled and so quietly was the robbery
conducted that the persons in the care
were unaware Of the proceeding.
One man finally crawled over the
transom from the locked room and
then liberated his companions. Inc
alarm was at once given and the po'
lice were called on to search for the

TIGER SPRINGS UPON MAN..
Driver of Bullock Cart Has Marrow
Escape From Death.

A dispatch from Calcutta says a
correspondent at Chamarajankal
sends the following: A cart be-
longing to the forest range officer
was going along with some twenty
other carts, at 4 a. m, at a very lit
tie distance from Atigulipur, eight
miles from Chamarajanger.
There were two persons in the
cart. Both were wide awake. There
was noticed some uneasiness among
the bullocks that were drawing the
carts. The cartman saw this symp-
tom and became aware that there
was danger. The bullocks began to
run, as the road was sloping.
The tiger was perceived by some OF
the cartmen pursuing them, and the
cartmen began to beat the kerosene
oil tins and shout wildly to scare
away the tiger, But the tiger, not
daunted by this, sprang upon one
bullock that was to the left side OF
the hindmost cart. The two persons,
though much frightened, yet took
courage and began to shout and how
their loudest.
The tiger, enraged at this, sprane
O n the man who was driving the
cart. But the man managed to sliT
back into the cart, and the tiger lost
it's hold, and sat by the roadside
After awhile the two persons issued
from the cart and tried to lift the
bullock, but found it was dead. Then
taking the other bullock, they pro-
ceeded to the town.

MARTYR TO SERVICE.
Attendant in Il Contagious Hospital
q Victim of ~Scpticemia.

A New York dispatch says n of
the most popular and efficient nurses
of the Rierside Hospital on North
Brother Island, Miss Maybelle F.
Strawski, has given her life to her
calling. Riverside Hospital is a city
institution given over to the treat
ment of contagious diseases exclusive
ly and about three weeks ago Miss
Strawski was in charge of several
diphtheria patients.
She pricked her thumb with a safe
ty Din in the care of n Of the pa
tients and at the time thought moth
ing Of it.
In a few days. however, it devel-
oped that the pin was badly infected
and Miss Strawski was found to he
suffering from a violent attack OF
septicemia.
Ordinarily an operation on the in
iured thumb or all amputation Of the
arm would have saved the life of the
suffered, but in the case of Miss
Strawski the poison has been so vir-
ulent and had spread so rapidly that
all efforts to say her life proved flu
J tile and she died. :

A BRUTAL MURDER
DIDN'T INTEND TO TO KILL ANY
PARTICULAR PERSON.
Hoped His Victim Would Be Wealthy
American or English Tourist, Who
He Could Rob.

American or English Tourist, Who
He Could Rob.
The sheperd, Joseph Michaud, who
murdered Robert Munziger, a young
Swiss Alpinist, on the Col de Balme
last August, has been sentenced to
life Imprisonment at Martigny, Switz-
erland.
The crime was perhaps the most re-
markable ever committed in the
Alps. According to Michaud's confess
sion, which was made with great cal
lousness, he lay in wait on the Col de
Blaine for days, intending to murder
the first unaccompanied tourist who
came along.
He hoped his victim would be a
rich Englishman or American. and
his intention was to leave Switzer-
land with the proceeds Of the rob-
berry and to come to America, where
he hoped to make his fortune.
Michaud explained that he had
thought this out carefully while at
tending to his flock, and had conclud-
ed that he would remain a shepherd
to the end of his days unless he could
make a coup by numbering and rob-
bling a wealthy tourist.
MANY Englishmen passed." said
Michaud in his confession, "but they
were all accompanied by relatives or
friends"
Finally Munziger appeared. He
intended crossing the Col de Blaine
and descending to Chamonix, whence
he meant attempting an ascent Of
Mont Blanc. When near the summit
OF the Col de palE'e Michaud at
tackled him with a hunting knife and
stabbed him to death.
Michaud robbed the body, strip
ped it of clothes, and then buried 1T
under some rocks. He torget, how
er {, remove the traces Of the crime,
and guides who searched the precipic-
es of the Col de Blaine for a week
finally discovered the evidences of a
struggle, which led to Munziger's
noIy being disintered.
Michaud aroused suspicion m a
neighboring village by displaying a
watch which afterward proved To he
Munziger's. When the shepherd was
arrested he was wearing the clothes
Of the murdered man. He showed
great .unconcern and laughed and
ioked with the gendarmes.
His booty amounted to a about 80
and Michaud's only regret was that
he had killed a Swiss instead of a
wealthy foreigner. Il was too has
ty." he complained to the judge dur
ing his trial, "but l had been waiting
so long that l had become impatient.

Court Injunctions Will be Pushed ant

the Illegal Sale of Liquor-GOv
Ansel Will Authorize the Attorney
General to Proceed as Supreme
Court Gives the Right.
what will be done now that the
supreme court has sustained the in
junction policy as applied to blind
tigers? This question has suggested
itself to a great many people n the
last two dogs. Gov. Ansel himself
declines to talk, and Attorney General
Lyon is out of the CITY," says the
Columbia State.
But it is reported that Mr.. Mar
shall P. DeBruhl, assistant attorney
general, has been given a batch of
of injunction affidavits and has been
ordered by Governor Ansel to pro-
coed against the places regarded as
blind tigers 1t is said that among
these cases are five right here in
Columbia and that Capt. 7 E. Dixon
has been given orders to eljoin not
only the keepers of lie aIaces but
the owners of the prol ETY. from ever
again toleratng the Illicit sale of Ii
quor on the premises such sale con-
stituting a nuisance nfier the Carey
Cothran act and sH~hjCrling the prop
erty to be handled in injunction pro-
ceedings.
1t is believed that Gov. Ansel will
now push the injunctions against
bling tigers in Charleston-and in
other cities where they may exist
and by this drastic drive
these people out of an unlawful bus
mess.
when Gov. Ansel was a candidate
for governor he received nearly rs
per cent. of the otes in Charleston
county. Some time after he assumed
his official duties there was some
talk to the effect that Charleston
was getting more and more wide
open,' depending upon Gov. Ansels
political friendship. When this mat
ter was brought to Gov. Ansels at
tention he inquired of the attorney
general if there were any way etect
ually to go after the blind tigers.
"Mr. Lyon suggested the injunction
method. This: was approved by the
Governor and the State disDensary
auditor, Mr.. w. B. West, was sent
to Charleston to work up evidence
against suspects. The dispensary
constabulary was used and upon al
fidaits thus obtained the attorney
general issued injunctions closing a
number of liquor shops in Charles
ton.
"An appeal was taken to the SUI
preme court and the court decided in
favor of the injunctions. Mr.. Lyon
had been advised by Gov. Ansel to
suspend the enjoining proceedings
until the court should act. Mr.. De-
Bruhl. it is stated, has received In
structions that as the court has sus-
tanned the injunctions the work
should be pushed.
It is said that in Charleston when
a law breaker was enjoined from
selling liquor he would move MS
place to the upper story of the same
building and conduct the business in
his CLERKS name. Mr.. Lyon will no"
issue injunctions against property
owners also. These %injunctions are
perpetual, and the punishment is
sure"
