which she died shortly afterward. Mrs.
H. H. Sadler, mother OF II. j. Sadlel

KILLED HIS PURSUER.

Claiming that his victim was MEM
Der Of the Black Hand who had been
following him around this country
for two years, seeking revenge, Fran
cesco scagtio, aged 81 years, yesterday
shot and fatally wounded Giuseppe
Ceraclo, in Philadelphia. The shooting
occurred in the heart Of the Italian
section and was witnessed by many
persons. Scagtio was captured by the
police after chase of several squares.
Ceraclo was taken to 4 hospital and
died shortly after being admitted.
Scagtio in his statement to the police
said that Ceraclo and he had been
members of the same secret society
in Italy. He failed to obey a COM
mand of the order and came to this
country to escape punishment. Hc
was followed by Ceraclo who, he says.
dogged him through several towns in
the mining regions of Pennsylvania
and followed him to Philadelphia.
Determined to end the suspense
which he said he labored under, Scag-
ito yesterday sought Ceraclo and saying
I'll get you first" shot him.

Several miracles are reported in con-
nection with this years national
French pilgrimage to Lourdes and are
described in statement signed by DIR.
Boissaire and other physicians who
have had the cases under obscrva-
ton.
The first miracle occurred on the first
day the pilgrims arrived. A seven-year-

numerous growths which prevented
him from opening his eyes, suddenly
recovered his sight.
A woman OF 81 afllictcd..with paralysis
of the left side when immersed in the
water Immediately raised her left

A 72-year-old woman from Paris,

journey that the last sacraments were
administered at Pau, improved at once
after being dipped in the water and now

CLOSE OF THE EUCHARSTIC CON
GRESS.

Over 100, 900 persons lay, and clerical
formed the great procession which, from
a spectacular point OF view, closed the
twenty-frst Eucharistic Congress in
Montreal yesterday. 1t is estimated to
close 500, 900 people were massed along
the route from Place d'Armes to
Fletchcr's Field, on the mountainslde
Cardinal Vannutelli, walking under a
huge canopy and carrying the mon
STRANGE containing the host, stood the
Journey from Notre Dame to the open
air altar well, but it was evident that
he was completely worn out and that
a few moments more before being
helped into his carriage after the cere-
mony, would have seen his collapse.
His calm, pleasant face was pale and
drawn and he tottcred and almost fell
as he ascended the altar steps. Other
diginitarics in the procession, many Of
whom have passed the allotted span OF
three score and ten, had to be assisted
before the end OF the route had been
reached.
Although the procession was without
hitch, there were many accidents
along the route. Enterprising citizens
had built grandstands, small ilim>y
affairs. along the streets on which tie
procession was to pass. Although they
were all inspected and passed upon by
the building department of the city,
several of them collapsed. Boys fell
out Of windows, off fences and telegraph
poles and women tainted from the
crush and heat. Fortunately not y
cath has been reported.

FORTUNE IN APPLES.

Commissioner of Agriculture Koiner,
who has been taking look at some OF
the big orchards Of the state, has re-
turned to his Office. On Wednesday
he visited the fruit farm of James Craig
at Waynesboro. Mr.. Craig expects to
market 1o, 900 barrels of choice apples
this year, from $500 trees. He re-
fused an offer OF 1926 per barrel. On
the day OF Mr.. Koiner's visit he shipped
a carload of apples destined for Europe.
A fortune in apples in a year is now
no uncommon thing in Virginia. Mr..
Craig has made a. scientific study OF
fruit growing, and has everything we'll
organized. He uses his fallen apples
in the making of cider. By means OF
a device, he washes his apples with a
stream of water as they travel up to the
feeder OF the cider mill. The apples
are crushed so completely that he burns
the pulp in the engine which runs the
mill, after mixing it with coal.-LChar-
lottesyille Progress.

aDETERMINED BRUTE.

Notwithstanding his life has been
sought by determined citizens for three
davs the unknown negro who Wednes-
day night attempted to criminally as
sault Miss Frances Williams, the t.
year-old daughter of q farmer living
near Whistler, Iowa, made second
attack on the girl yesterday evening,
and the two exchanged shots at short
range. Miss Williams went to the
barn to investigate noise, carrying o
shotgun along, and when she opened
the door negro, whom she recog-
nized as her assailant OF Wednesday
night, threw handful of bran into her
face. She screamed and as the frighten-
ed negro ran off he fired at her with q
shotgun, but the aim was poor. She
quickly returned the fire without effect.
Posses secured the neighborhood yester-
