MANY DROWN
As Result Of the Collision of Two
Vessels.

Algers, Feb. 15.-An unknown
sailing vessel rammed the Belgian
steamer Australia during a storm on
February IL near Alboran Island IN
the Mediterranean, 100 miles from
Bibraltar. Both vessels foundered.
The total known loss of life was 80,
IA men from the sailing vessel and
16 from the Australia. Ten mem
bers of the crew Of the Australia,
who had put off from that steamer
in a small boat, were picked up by
the German steamer Liberia and
brought in here today.
Captain Norman of the Australia,
who was the last to leave his ship,
states that ne left oran on Wednes-
day in heavy weather. On Friday
morning the fog was so dense that
it made navigation almost impossible.
Suddenly a large vessel loomed up
and struck the Australia on the port
bow. The steamer Immediately set
tied and sank Wlth1H Lnree minutes
The crew had just time to scram-
Bile into the boats, during which time
the boats became separated from
each other. When the men in the
captains boat were about given up
the steamer Liberia was sighted and
she responded to their frenzied sig
nails.
Captain Norman estimates the to-
tai number of victims at 46. So far
as is known only 10 of the crew OF
the Australia, which numbered 26,
were saved and the sailing vessel was
of the class usually manned by 80
men, all of whom, it is believed, per
ished.

CUTTING MANS WHISPERS.
Mayor Of New Orleans and Several
Others Indicted.

New Orleans, LA sensation
was created in the United States
circuit court this afternoon when a
grand jury returned indictments
against the mayor and other promi-
nent citizens of Kenner, Jefferson
Parish, charging them with "ccnspir-
ing and agreeing to arm themselves
with pistols, guns, scissors and other
weapons to injure, oppress and
threaten certain voters"
The indicted! men are: Mayor Paul
Felix, Dave Meyer, John T. Fitzger-
aid, Moxie W,ildeastein and Frank
Hall.
The indictments grew out Of the
cutting of Of the whiskers Of E. A.
o'Sullivan, a prominent attorney of
New Orleans, at the Keener Polls at
the last national election. Mr.. O'Sul-
livan went to Ghe polls for the avow-
ed purpose of giving legal advice to
certain clients opposing the Felix Re
gime. AS he approached tho voting
booth ne was seized and his flowing
whiskers, with. a state wide reputa-
ton for their luxuriant growth. were
sumrnarily clipped. An incidental
intimation of other parties, it is al
legged, figured in today's indictments.

LUNATIC ASYLUM
SOME TALK OF HAVING IT IN
VESTIGATED.
There Have Been Circulated All
Sorts of Absurd Reports as 70 the
Treatment of Inmates.

Columbia, S. c., Feb. 15.-There
has been some talk recently about
the asylum investigation and the
matters that will come before that
commission. 1t is gathered that wit
nesses will be produced who will
swear that they, while inmates Of
the asylum for the liquor habit, were
compelled to help the attendants,
force soup and milk down the throats
of patients who would not eat. and
that they saw, different men at diff
ferent times, as many as two men
positively killed BY the liquid being
forced down their windpipes.
Another case which reads like the
stories OF old, is Of man who could
not be released, though there was
really very little the matter with
him and he had been cured, because
his relatives would not sign for
his release, though notified that he
was entirely cured, and he was kept
in the asylum until he went crazy
in fact.
There is a great deal Of talk to
the effect that there will be an ef-
fort of white washing in the matter.
1t is said by the patients who have
been released that they have tried
time and again to reach the ears OF
the authorities with their complaints
but that they often did not see the
proper persons in months and month
and then onlp on hurried inspec-
tior in the wards, and that they have
appealed to Dr.. Babcock to give them
g hearing.
If an effort is made to white wash
the report there is going to be {
fuss raised by those VINO have the
afldavits and who do not like the
turn that things have taken. Youl
correspondent has been informed
however, that there will be no white
washing allowed.

Microbes in Everything.

This is surely an age Of microbes.
They seem to be in nearly everything
you eat and drink. They say il you
eat and drink microbes yoas, WI!
surely die, and if you don't eat and
drink you will still more surely die.
Bound to surely die in anyS event,
you had better pay no more atten-
ton to microbes than your grand
dadies did. They ate and drank
everything they wanted and they liv-.
ed long and prospered. What did
MethuseIah know about microbes
in his time? Eat and drink every
thing you want, microbes and ALL:
and you will live until you die and
that it what old Methuselah did
he lived until he died.

It tends to increase the normal ac-.

Columbia, Feb. 19.-The Senate
and House have passed rather cur
ious bill. The Senate passed the bill
and it today received its second read
ing in the House. Mr.. Aver opposed
the bill, but it was unavailing. The
bill provides:
Section L. That whoever publishes
or causes to be published the name
of any woman, maid or child,
upon whom the crime Of rape or an
assault with intent to ravish, has
been committed or alleged to have
been committed, in this State in any

misdemeanor, and upon conviction
thereof shall be punished by fine of
not more than one thousand dollars,

three years. Provided, the provi-
sions Of this Act shall not apply to
publications made by order of the

TEDDY AND BILLY.
Crum Matter Said TO Have Caused
Them to Disagree.

CTum itHLUcT SSSlN " o1SS S@ooSo
Them to Disagree.
Washington, Feb. 19.-The Wash
ington correspondent Of The News
and Courier says it has just leaked
out that when President-elect Taft
was in Washington last Tuesday and
Wednesday he showed draft of
his inaugural address to President
Roosevelt, and that whens the latter
noticed that Mr.. Taft would not
place negroes in Office, where such
appointments would be OBJECTED
to, he demurred.
The position that Mr.. Taft will
assume on this matter is not in
keeping with the views Of President
Roosevelt on the same subject, and
it is said that the conference went
into the matter very deeply. An
accurate statement Of what really
took place cannot, Of course, be Sc
cured, but it is believed that the
President and his successor differ
materially on this question.
Crum's case. it is understood, was
taken up and Mr.. Taft is said to
have intimated very forcibly that
unrass other negroes seeking Office
under his Administration could show
more fitness for receiving sucn ap-
pointments than Crum that they
would not be considered. Unless
something unforeseen occurs to
change his attitude on the subject,
Mr.. Taft will state positively in his
inaugural address just what he be-
lieves to be real fitness for Office
holdSag under his Administration,
whether the applicants be white or
colored. He will tell the people just
how be stands On the question.

EIGHT CHILDREN AND ONE MAN
BITTEN
And Are Now Taking Treatment at
the Pasteur Institute at Atlanta,
Georgia,

Atlanta, Feb. 15.-Eight children,
varying in age from to IL years, all
from the same neighborhood in east
Tennessee, are now at the Pasteur
Institute in Atlanta on account of
one little black and white spotted
fee dog that went mad and ran
amuck, last week. They were join
ed at the institute Friday afternoon
by Winfield S. Lewis, g farmer of
the same neighborhood, who had
beer bitten by the same little ami
NAL.
A whole countryside seems to have
been ranged by the diminutive
spreader of terror. The eight child
rem who have been compelled to
make the long trip to save them
selves from a horrible death, repre-
sent seven different families. The
two little Stanberry children, whose
pet the dog was, are the only ones
of the group who come from the
same household. Their homes are
scattered on the outskirts Of the
little corporation of Newport, Tenn.
When the children were Joined at
the Pasteur Institute Friday after
noon by Winfield S. Lewis, a farmer
who lives six miles out from New
port, the eighth family Of that COM
munity had sent it's representative.
The children were all bitten last
week, between February 8 and 6.
Mr.. Scott was bitten on Saturday.
How many other victims the little
| fee claimed before he was killed,
has not developed. There may be
as many others before the whole tale
| is told. Mr.. Lewis Is the last on the
present record. The little brute
entered the kitchen Of the farm
house, and Mr.. Lewis, STOPPING tc
pet the visitor, was bitten in the
fingers Of one hand. The dog es'
capped and was killed later in Viii.
sonville. An examination Of its
head showed that it had rabies and
the wholesale migration Of com
munity of children followed. Bruce
stanberry, the father OF two of them
is in charge of the party Of young
sters.

Speech.
Washington, D. c., Feb. 13.-The
only thing that will cause Senator
Tillman to prod President Roosevelt
with his pitchfork will be any effort
on the part of Senator Lodge to
pass the gag rule which he recently
proposed and which is Aow pending
in the rule committee.
II the gag rules remain dormant
in the committee, it is likely that
Tillman will excoriate the president,
as he has threatened to do several
times since Mr. Roosevelt attempted
to implicate the South Carolinian in
Oregon land scandals.
MANY of my warmest friends
have urged me not to jump on Rose
yelt," said Mr.. Tillman this after
noon, ''aRd I am undecided whether
I will expose him as be so richly de-
serves. l realize that the Office OF
president Of the Uaited States is
and should be, above criticism. but
no faker like Theodore Roosevelt
should be immune. The chce and
the occupant are different.
ut is a question in my mino

formation about him that woule

my friends tell me, and l believe
that way myself, that the senate sub
committee rebuked him severely tol
his attitude about the secret service.
1t was suggested to the senate
that perhaps he might be deprived
of the right to criticise Mr.. Roosevelt
if the rule proposed by Senate
Lodge. Eas adopted.
"Just let 'em try it" snapped tn

INJURED BY MONKEY.
A Child's Face Made a Mass Of Torn
Flesh.

Savannah, Ca, Feb. 14.-Attack-

monkey colony at Thunderbolt, four
year old Frank Beasley was very Sc
riously injured this afternoon, the
boy being rushed to hospital after
he was freed from the animal, with
his face a mass of torn flesh where
the monkeys teeth had been. The
monkey fought for its prey after
the rescue and half dozen men
were hardly able to repel its at
tacks. There is no suggestion that
the monkey was rabid, but the
wounds it left were carefully treat
