A CAMEL ST09Y.
Fooled In It's Revenge, the Animal
Committed Suicide.

Fooled In Ito Revenge, the Animal
comr1itted Suicide.
Some years ago it CHANGED that n
valuable camel working in mn old mill
in Africa was severely beaten by its
driver. who, perceiving that The camel
had treasured UP the injury and was
only waiting Il favorable opportunity
for revenge. kept a. strict watch upon
the animal. Time passed away. The
camel. perceiving that it was watched
was quiet ard obedient. and the driver
began to think that the beating was
forgotten.
One night after a lapse of several
months the man. who slept on IA rails
ed platform in the mill, while, as is
customary the camel was stalled in a
corner. happening to remain awake.
observed by the bright moonlight that
when all was quiet the animal looked
cautiously around. rose softly and,
stealing over toward a spot where Il
bundle Of clothes and burnOose,
thrown carelessly on the ground, re-
sembled a sleeping figure. cast itself
with violence upon them, rolling with
all it's weight and tearing them most
viciously with its teeth.
Satisfied that its revenge was com
plete. the camel was returning to its
corner when the driver sat up and
spoke. At the sound of his voice and
perceiving the mistake it had made
the animal was so mortified at the fail
ure and discovery of its scheme that it
dashed it's head against the wall and
died on the pot.-Sheffield Telegraph.

Empress of China's Tea Secret Out.
1t is not unlikely that commerce
soon will bring to market the mix
ture OF tea and flowers which was one
OF Chinas state secrets when the dow
ager empress held the reins of power.
The empress was almost as famous
for her tea as for her iron grip OF the
government. All guests at court were
permitted to drink of the old wonlans
favorite brew, and tea experts tried TO
match the blend after they had failed
to worm the secret from servants in
attendance on the empress. Every at

not until after the empress death that
the secret leaked out. Now it is known

HUMAN TORCH
Mrs. r. A. Baughman Has a
Narrow Escape.

MRS. r. A. Baughman, aged about
seventy five years, mad a very narrow
escape from serious injury at the
home OF Mrs. j. Il. Hatch. OF No.
Ola street, Saturday afternoon, short
ly after one o'clock.
Mrs. Baughman, who resides with
Mrs. Hatch, was in the room where
the latter was ironing and while
engaged IN conservation she stood too
near a gasoline stove and her cloth
ing caught fire. She was enveloped
IN flames almost Immediately after
the fire had touched her and frantic
efforts were made to put out the
flames. Her left hand was quite badly
burned in her efforts to put out the
fire and two fingers of the hand were
seriously burned. She was otherwise
burned but er injuries are not
thought serious. The ladies who We're
in the room at the time saw the aged
woman in flames and a bucket of
water was procured and poured over
the woman's clothing. But for a
woolen skirt which Mrs. Baughman
wore II is said that the burns would
have been very serious.
The hasty action on the part of the
women doubtlessly saved the life OF
Mrs. Baughman.

INDICTMENT
IS NOLL|ED
States Witnesses Have

ONE COUNT STILL STANDS
Harry Kennedy May Yet
Be Tried.
Prosecutor Justice is Not Through
With the Case and Primlses Some
Very interesting Developments
When the Time Comes.
KIEINMAIERs

Charging that witnesses for the
state in the case against Harry Ken
nedy, who was indicted for rape. his
victim being his ten-year-old daugh-
ter had been tampered with and
that they now denied the truth the
story they told the grand jury when
Kennedy was indicted, Prosecutor
Justice this morning asked Judge
Babst to nolle the indictment. The
court did as requested.
The prosecutor said that Kennedy's
daughter who swore on the witness
stand bfor tn grand jury that her
father had had intercourse with her
not less tfan twenty-five times, now
claims that she was lying and hence
there is not the slightest bit of use
in trying the case. The state might
put the girl on the witness stand but
the law forbids the state to impeach
its own witnesses, hence her story
could not be drown out. Others of
the family who testified before the
grand jury also claim that the stor-
les they told then are not true.
Mr.. Justice told the court that he
expected to sift the matter to the
bottom, find out who had forced the
little girl and the others to change
their testimony and he promised that
when the matter is cleared there will
be prosecutions that will set an eX-
ample for the future. Had the case
been tried at the last term of court
the prosecutor felt certain, there
would have been a conviction, but an
account Of illness OF counsel the late
Judge Young postponed the trial and
the very outcome feared by the prose-
cutor the coercing of the child to lie
to save the unnatural father who had
wronged her-was effected.
Attorney II. N. Quigley asked
whether the prosecutor made any
charges against him as counsel for
Kennedy. Mr. Justice Immediately re-
piled that he did not.
Mr. Quigley said that the informa-
ton he had concerning the case Is
Identical with that secured by the
prosecutor.
The date of the offense charged in
the indictment is Nov. 12,190S. An
other offense is charged in a second
indictment, which was not nollied
and which will probably be tried at

the January term of court unless the
witnesses do as they have in the pres
sent case. In that event the indict-
ment will not be nollied before May,
when the statute requires that 1t be
nollied If not tried. The defendant is
in the county Jail and must remain
there as he is unable to give bond.
The crime charged against Kennedy
is one of the worse that was ever
brought to the notice of the authori-
ties.

william Tell.
Georgt Essex Jr. the eight year
old son of Mr.. and Mrs, George Es-
sex, of Jefferson street, was the VIC
tim of q peculiar accident at his
home late Saturday afternoon. That
the lad is in possession of the sght
II his right eye is the very remark
able feature of the accident.
Late In the afternoon young Eessex
was about his home when some lads
were across the street shooting with
bows and using the steel ribs taken
from old umbrellas for arrows This
practice had been in vogue for some
days past and the yound lads accident
ly pointed one of the arrows toward
the Essex home home striking the
Essex lad Immediately above the
right eye, cutting through the skin
and protruding from the upper
eye-lid. The prong was very sharp
and in length was from fifteen to
eighteen inches. In making its way
through the covering OF the eye the
arrow bruised the eyeball somewhat
but no serious results are anticipat-
ed and 1t, Is believed that the eye
ball will not be seriously injured nor
the eyesight marred. The screams
of the lad attracted the attention
of his companions and others who
rushed to Ihis assistance and Dr.
C. T. Wiant was Immediately sum-
moned. The arrow remained In the
eye until the arrival OF the physician
and 1t was then removed and the
wound closed.
That the child Is saved his eye
sight is very remarkable in the es.
timation of the attending physician
1t appears that the childer who were
playing, were not aware of the pres
ence of the Essex lad across the
street. The sport with the bow and
arrows has become very general
among the children over the city
and the accident may servo to check
young William Tells.
