RECEIVED MANY LETTERS.
Man Who Offered Money to Those
 Who Have Money.

Pennington, Me, July 7.-At- tracted by the announcement in the daily papers about two months ago that $500 would be given to any person who was already the pos sessor of a like amount. more than 1000 persons have addressed let ters to C.. w. Averill in this town, who was said in the newspaper dis patches to have fallen heir to $1O,- 100000, and decided upon the aforementioned offer as a means of helping those less fortunate. However. no such person is known here and the post office is flooded with communications bearing post marks from all parts of the country
 The published announcement of the offer was dated Chicago, and stated that c. W. Averill of Los Angeles, Cal, had received legacy of l0,00O,000 from which sum he would give $500 to any person having an additional $500. It was said that his home was in Pennington, Me, to which place he was going within short time, and this attracted the great quantity of letters to the local post office.

Gascr Auctions.

A Dutch auction at Cape Town is frequently exciting. If house is to be sold. the auctloneer offers "50 gold en sovereigns for the man who first bids E5.O0O." Nobody bids. A pause, and then "50 golden sovereigns for the man who first bids f4,900." This is kept up until q bid is secured. But il by no means follows that the house is sold to this bidder. No. the auctioneer Is then at 1t again. Say that f4.4Oo is the first bid. The auctioneer cries There are 9 golden sovereigns for the first man who has the courage to bid E4.6OO." Perhaps no one has 1t Then f25 Is offered for a f4.5JO bid. II there is eventually no bid above the f4.400. the man who made that bid is saddIed with the house. Otherwise he pockets hfs bonus and gets off free of 1t all.-westminster Gazette.

WALSH OF DERBY.
Considerable Comment Over His Visit
 to This City.

There is a good deal of talk on the streets to-day regarding the row in the aldermanic chamber last night as to whether the board should listen to MT Walsh of Derby, who appeared as spokesman for the Journeymen plumbers, who sought to have the plumbing inspector put under the jurisdiction. It is quite plain from what is being said that everybody does not understand the situation. At the former meeting it was voted to lay the matter on the table and the clerk instructed to notify the petitioners and the mas ter plumbers to appear and be heard in the premises if they saw fit. When it was taken up last night it was voted to give all who cared to speak a hearing so that when the question as to the right of MT Walsh was raised the chairman held that inasmuch as he had come as repre- senting one side of the question it was proper to hear him. Whether the chair was right or not is some- thing honest people may interpret differently, but it is safe to say that the local men would have made a better impression if they had stated their own case, not because MT Walsh didn't handle the subject well, but on account of the preiu- dice of bringing men here from other towns to advise public officials and business men what to do.
 While 1t is not an innovation there Is no denying the fact that a man coming here on such a mission does not help any cause, although it is evident that after a few days the oily tongued orators will be here by the dozen and if We don't do what they say things will go to the dogs. But that's another matter, and in a gen. eral way the public will be pleased to hear that even the republican mem bers of the city government are be- ginning to stand for home rule. If they keep this up they yet may enter a protest against the making of laws at Hartford by people from all over the state that practically disfran- chised the taxpayers and puts the mayor and the board of aldermen un- der the thumb of the telephone com pany, the railroad company and oth- CTS who want to use our streets and are using them without paying any, thing for the privilege.

ONE DEAD, ONE DYING.
Remarkable Tragedy in a Chicago
 Girls Home.

Chicago, July "A dispatch to the Record-Herald from VLhcennes Ind. says: Miss May E. Baker, 70 years old, is dead, and Charles Ingie. 40 years old. is mortally wounded as the result of a remarkable tragedy in the girls home yesterday. Mrs Ollie Youngblood Ellis, cousin of the girl killed. admits, it is alleged, that she fired all the shots. and says she was trying to drive away Ingle, who in a fit of rage had seized Miss Baker, threatening her with bodity harm.
 Mystery surrounds the details If the affair, and the stories of the wounded man and the woman do not agree. Ingle insists he was only a 2. tempting to warn the woman, who he says had emeshed his sisters hus- band, to leave town, and he claims the shooting was without provoca- tion. The bullets which ended Miss Bakers life were aimed at Ingle, who. Mrs Ellis says, at the time had the girl in his grasp.
 Ingle was taken to the jail on sus. picion that he had killed the girl.
 The story of supposed wrong to sister. which Ingle sought to avenge upon the woman, his visit of warning to the two, Mrs Ellis's de- fense of her cousin and the resultant tragedy is a remarkable one, and last night the sisters husband. Rich ard LOyejoy. was locked up pending a full investigation by the police. Loveioy, who is a contracting car penter. is alleged to have been in the house when the shooting took place.

KILLING KOREANS
Insurgents and Patriots Are Murdering People Right
 and Left al Seoul.

Seoul, June 15 (via San Francis co. July 7).-Nearly 1000 Koreans have been murdered by the Korean insurgents and so-called patriots within the last few months. These Koreans were all members of the Il-Ching-Hoi, a pro-Japanese socle- ty. Most of the Koreans murdered by their fellow countrymen were peaceful hard working men, whose only crime seems to have been op- position to the disturbing element In the country and friendliness to the Japanese protectorate. In addition to those murdered there have been a number of cases of cruelty and hardship.
 The actual statistics carefully col lected and in every case verified show that since the Japanese pro tectorate of Korea commenced 926 members of the Il-Ching-Hoi have been murdered by the Korean ln- surgents, 360 houses have been burned, involving a loss of about 50,000 yen.
 The revolution in Korea is grad ually being driven into a corner. The scattered bands of rioters are being rounded up and either forced into surrender or their activities ef- fectually stopped. The course talk en by the government in the last rigorous campaign instituted against the disturbing element is approved by the people of the country, both foreign and native.

GERMANS WIN
Almost a Million People Turned Out 10 See the Grand Prix
 Race To-Day.

Dieppe, July 7.-Almost a million persons to-day saw the German driv- CTS capture the autoombile honors of 1908. They got the first three places in the grand prix race, while another German cut down the Dieppe track record by one hour and 45 minutes.
 The race to-day was the most ex- citing since the grand prix was in- augurated. A terrific pace was set at the start and three Frenchmen, Szisz, Thery and Bablot, and Wagner, an Italian, and Salzer, German, beat the lap record made last year in the first round. In the second round Ma zarro, driving a Fiat, forged to the lead, but the strain of the mad speed soon began to tell on the leaders. Tire trouble then developed and strong wind at times reaching the propor- tions of half gale that blew straight in the faces of the drivers as they came down the sea leg of the triangu- lar course forced reduction of the pace and put an end to the hopes en- tertained earlier in the day that the record of last year would be broken.
 Lautenchlager in his Mercedes, drove steadily and took the lead in the fourth round when Navarro drop ped back owing to damned clutch, and he maintained this position to the finish. The English drivers nev- CT were prominent from the begin ming, and Strang, the American driv- ing a Thomas car, after finishing the fourth round next to the leader, dis appeared. After the fourth round the Italians also dropped out and never were in the race.
 The French, however, kept up the struggle, but one by one their crack drivers, like Sziez, in a Renault and Duray, in a Lorraine, succumbed and left only Thery in Brazier to see the fight out. Thery is the old vet eran who won the Gorlon Bennett cup.
 Two men were killed in the race. They are Cissac, who was driving a Panhard, and his mechanician. They were crushed under the car.
 The Weigel car, driven by Harri- son., turned a somersault into a ditch at Flu, and Harrison was badly injured.
 Lautenschlager's time was 6I hours, 55 minutes, 43 seconds. Hem- cry, driving a Benz, was second, in ' hours, 4 minutes and 24 seconds. and Handiot, also driving Benz car. was third in hours, minutes and 13 seconds. .......

PRAYER ANSWERED
Excelsior Park a Summer Re- sort Burned to ihe Ground
 "A Public Prayer.

Chicago, July 7.-Twelve hours af- ter the Rev George Edward Lewis in public prayer asked that the amuse- ment resorts of Irving park where liquor is served might be burned to the ground" Excelsior park was con- sumed by fire yesterday.
 Proprietors of other parks in the neighbOrhood admitted last night that they are both puzzled and fright ened. They also declared that they have taken precautions to protect their properties. q
 A. J. Smith, proprietor of the burned park, said his loss would be about $50,000. He thought that crossed electric wires was probably the cause of the fire.
 An investigation is to be made. The police are looking for two men who were seen near the park early in the day.

SOLDIERS swELTER.
Men Doing Duty at Pine Camp Sui. fer From Heat,

Pine Camp, N. Y.. July 7.-The sweltering heat made the regular drills to-day an extreme hardship es- peeially to the militia who have re- gently arrived and who are not yet hardened by the rigors of camp life. The regulars did not seem to mind the oppression and no sunstrokes and serious illness have resulted. To- night or early tomorrow the active maneuvers will begin and the Blue and Brown army will fight out a problem similar to those that have occupied the attention of the camp forces during the encampment. Base ball is the popular sport at the camp, the 24th infantry team holding the record for successive victories up to date. This afternoon the 18th infan- try and field artilley teams will play. Among the visitors expected during the week are Cornelius Vanderbilt, captain of the 12th infantry, N. Y. N. G., and Governor Rollin s. Woodruff of Connecticut.

HEAT IS UNBEATABLE.
Several Persons Prostrated-0ne
 Death Resulted.

The heat was intense yesterday and many were taken i'll and had to call in medical aid. The number in cluded Mrs Ida J. Ridpath of North Main street, Rocco Slorella of North Elm street, Angelo Muigo, an em- ploye of the Waterbury Brass com pany. and an infant child of Mir and Mrs Harold Burdick of Ash street. The baby died, but the others are on the mend and will recover. In many instances men stopped work and hurried of to places where they were secure from the scorch- ing rays of the sun that beat down with such force 1t was almost im- possible to bear up under it. espe- cially if one had to dig or shovel. There was a good breeze this after noon and the weather prophets ore dict showers, which everybody hopes will come along soon.

THE FLEET IS OFF
Rear Admiral Sperry SisrIs on His Memorable N laval Jour.
  Dey To-Day.

San Francisco, July With the turn of the tide to-day, after the hour of noon, the Atlantic fleet of 16 battleships will hoist anchors and, led by Rear Admiral Sperry's S flagship Connecticut. turn their prows toward Golden Gate and the open sea on their long voyage to a home port in the Atlantic. The last calls were made this morning, good byes were said by officers to their families and friends, and when the sun peeped over the Berkely hills "big 16," the backbone of the American navy, was ready for the signal to get under way.
 There was none of the exciting and picturesque scenes that marked. the coming of the fleet to this port after is voyage around the south ern continent of America. It was not because there was any less pride in these defenders of the nations S honor, but two months of close con- tact and the almost daily sight of the glistening ships swinging quiet ly at anchor had filled the eye ana somewhat dimmed enthusiasm. Yet the picture of these big fighting craft was none the less inspiring to- day as they steamed in single col- umn between the rugged bluffs Of the Golden Gate on their world voy- age. Not since they left Hampton I- 1oz hod hn looked so trim and business like. Every one of the column of Is white and buff ships glistened in new paint as if just from the mak. CTS docks and everyone swept low in the water from the weight of full coal bunkers and ammunition mag azlnes. There were many thousands of San Francisco's population gath cred on the hills to-day to watch the fleets departure but there was no official recognition of the event.
 A few bay craft gave shrill blasts of their whistles as a parting salute and the watching crowds silently waved adieus. Beyond this there was nothing to mark the sailing of the great sea force more than the arrival or departure of other fleets of warships at this port.
 Two of the ships that made the voyage around South America un- der Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans were missing from their old posi- tions to-day. These are the Alabama and the Maine, which are now far on their way across the Pacific home ward bound. Their places had been taken, however, by the Wisconsin and the Nebraska, two more power full ships. thus making the fleet un- der Rear Admiral Sperry even stronger and more homogeneous than that which sailed from Hamp- ton Roads.

INDIANS ARMED.
Making a Demand for Their Allot.
 ment Certificates.

weletaka, Okla. July 7.-Three wagonloads of rifles were taken into camp of the Snake Indians yesterday and several hundred of the 1000 In- dians congregated there are heavily armed.
 The Indians are making new de- mand. according to reports on dis tinctly different from anything here tofore preached. The demand Is that the Snakes be given their allotment certificates which they have hereto fore steadfastly refused. It is said that Crazy Snake issued an ultimatum yesterday in which he said that un- less the certificates were delivered to- day the Indians would make a charge upon the whites in their initial step at driving all the white people from the former Indian nations.
