WARNING
Sent Out By State Health
Board About Cholera
Patients

Columbus, o., Oct 2S-Dr. C. o.
Probst, Secretary of the State Board
of Health, today received word from
New York that a number of immi-
grants, passengers on steamers from
the cholera-infected districts of Rus
sia and Italy, had passed quarantine
and were bound for points in Ohio. The
local boards of health were according
ly notified. DR.. Probst says that there
is no danger from cholera, but it is
well to keep the persons under sur
veillance.

p. S. The foregoing Republican
state official, w. q. Mcdonald, admit.
ted that in 1892 the state of Ohio
would have gone Democratic but for
the $4,000 or $4,000 campaign funds
collected through his department by
means OF. blank vouchers and padded
bills. AS 1t was. the Republican
state ticket was saved that year by
very small margin. When all state
officials were Republicans one of
them could be indicted 1873 times and
have all of the indictments kicked
out of court. But that ID not Cover
nor Harmon's way, as Mark Slater
well knows. Judson Harmon Is the
only governor in the history of Ohio
TO put CRATER in the penitentiary.
Mcdonald is an example of the Re.
publican way. Mark Slater is an ex'
ample of Governor Harmon's way.

Other Items OF Interest From
Temple Of Justice

Medina, o., Oct. 2S-The number of
witnesses yet to be put on the stand
to testify against e. F. Shelley, Ash
land-co banker, charged with having
embezzled approximately $21 900 from
the estate of Paul Oliver, rich and
aged imbecile, over whom he was
guardian, indicated today that the
trial would not be finished for at least
two days.
Testimony yesterday developed that
Shelley, after being given the power
of attorney by Oliver, and later being
appointed guardian over him, had put
divers bank account of $4,000 and
upwards into an account under his
own name. 1t also developed that Oh
liver had turned against Shelley and
had bought revolver with which to
shoot him.
G. G. Phillips, called as first wit
ness, said he was court stenographer
when Shelley was in probate court.
He Identified journal and a ledger
as being the same books Shelley had
presented to the court. Phillips said
Shelley said he had only one account
at the bank, mingling his own funds
and funds of the Oliver estate in the
one account, under his own name.
Phillips said Shelley admitted he
had taken every penny of divers es-
tate and put in his own name in the
account at the bank. He said Shelley
claimed he had filed vouchers and re-
ceipts in probate court, but still had
them in the bank vault for two years,
because he thought best not to leave
them in the probate court.
Mrs. Lima Jones for the defense said
she had lived in Loudonville 10 years,
and had known Oliver 81 years. She
said Oliver lived with her in 1904, and
that she did not know of Shelley hav.
ing any business dealings with him be,
fore Oliver gave him the power of at
torney.
She said Oliver then visited Shell
ly every day and that she saw Shelly
at her home, inducing oliver to sign
the writ of power of attorney. When
she interfered, she said, she was told
by Mr.. Shelly that it was none of her
business.
She testified she did not think Oil
yer was in sound mental condition
when he was at the home and Shelly
was trying to induce him to sign over
the power of attorney. She said she
saw oliver sign the paper. Mrs. Jones
said that later Oliver, having a griev-
ance against Shelly. on account of
Shelly's refusing to release the power
of attorney, had purchased revolver
and threatened to shoot Shelly.
81 had hid the revolver so that he
would not shoot Mr.. Shelly" she
said, "and when Mr. Shelly came to
my home, Mr.. Oliver was extremely
excited on not being able to find the
revolver"

STRANGE STORY Of
Three BACHELORS
OF !ERMILLlON, la.
One Disappeared, One Suicided and
Shrouded in Mystery.

Abbeville, La, Aug. 26.-The last
chapter in the tragic passing of three
old bachelors who lived in seclusion
on the John Bagley place, four miles
South of Abbeville, has been enacted
John Grennen, the last of the trium-
virate, has been turned over to the
care of his sister in New York. Gren-
men. demented when he left his old
home on the Bagley place in custody
of Sheriff Adam Boudreaux, on the
journey to Gotham, became raving
maniac on reaching New Orleans and
had to be heavily manacled and close
ly confined in stateroom.
Grennen and Tom Bagley lived to-
gether for years on the Bagley place.
They had little to do with their neigh
bors and were considered eccentric.
About four years ago Silas Dodson, a
little old Englishman, joined the pair
and opened little store on the road
side near the Bagley place. Dodson
disagreed a short time afterwards and
no trace of him has ever been found.
He left cash to his credit in a local
bank and his stock of goods.
Tom Bagley, brooding over Dodson's S
disappearance, committed suicide
shortly afterwards. The home, then
solely occupied by Grennen, was sold
under foreclosure proceedings. -Gren-
men grieved over the loss of his
friends and home, and his mind be-
came unbalanced.
The history of the secluded lives of
the three strange men is shrouded in
mystery, which will probably never
be solved

Photoeraphing a Panther.

A panther is not easily killed and
will often revive with very unpleasant
results. as on certain occasion in the
Deccan. He appeared to be quite
dead. and one of the spectators rushed
up with camera on stand to obtain
a picture of the supreme moment. He
got his photograph. and. strange to
say, it survived what followed. but no
sooner had he taken it than the pan.
ther revived. tore himself loose and
went for the photographer. Somehow
the man escaped. but the camera was
sent flying, and, disconnected by his
encounter with it. the panther turned
and made for the nearest tree. up
which he went as quickly as mon-
key. Now. the tree was crowded with
interested spectators. and for three or
four strenuous seconds until the pan
ther was shot we enjoyed spectacle
of natives dropping to earth with loud
thuds like ripe plums from jungle
plum tree as the panther approached
them.-Wide World Magazine.

RED flag RAISED
in COPENHAGEN
international Congress of Socialists
Attracts Large Number of Wor-
shippers at That Shrine.
NV Union Associated Press.)

Copenhagen, Aug. 26.-"Workng-
men Of the world, unite, you have
nothing to lose but your chains; you
have a world to gain
These words, in half a dozen Ian
guages, emblazened on sread red
banner, covered the front of the hall
where hundreds of earnest men and
women assembled today to begin the
International Congress of Socialists.
A score of nations were represented
by the various delegations, Germany
was in the ascendant, with more than
a hundred delegates. Recent cleo
tions in the empire of Kaiser Wilhelm
have shown great gains for the So
cial Democrats, and the German
branch of the party is already prepar-
ing for the great day of triumph, when
the blood red banner will be hoisted
above Berlin and emperor, princes,
kings and dukes will fee for refuge
to other lands.
The French delegates, too are con-
fident of the early success of their
case, although in the great republic
the party is divided against itself.
Jean Jaures, the squat, fat leader of
the party in the French Parliament,
champion orator of the world in the
matter of output of words, has many
enemies in his own rank. Prof.
Herve, leader of the radical revolu-
tionists, and Guesde, the head of the
moderate Socialists of France, are
combined against him.
America has several delegates,
chief of whom is William D. Haywood,
the former western mine leader whose
sensational trial for murder a few
years ago convulsed the entire Social
list world.

BULL BATTING.
A Brutal "Sport" That Was Popular In

A Brutal "Sport" That Was Popular In
Former Days.
The principle of bull batting was ex-
tremely simple. A collar was fasten-
ed round the bulls neck. and by this
the bull was attached by rope to
stake. The rope varied from nine to
fifteen feet in length and therefore al
lowed the bull but little movement
The audience was accommodated in ii
circle or ring"
The bulldogs duty was to grasp the
bulls nose, and when he had succeed
ed in obtaining a grip he was required
to maintain his hold. despite the eff
forts of the larger animal to dislodge
him. The bull awaited the>attack with
lowered horns. which the dog sought
to evade by crouching toward the head
of his opponent. Sometimes the bull
managed to get his horns under or
into the dog. which was then thrown
high into the air
Writers state that dogs had been
tossed up to Il height of thirty or forty
feet. The dog, If lie survived. would
"retire hurt" On the other hand. once
the dog which was trained to grip only
the nose, obtained hold his adver-
sary would have little chance Of shak-
ing him off. The bull would whirl the
dog in the air and struggle frantically
to wrench his nose free from the ter
rible grip. When. from sheer exhaus-
tion. the dog dropped clear Of the bull
a fresh dog was sent into the ring.

there were no other large parties than
those of Hahn and Fearn missing in

there might be loss of life in isolated
groups. Hahn and his men are in the

Fearn and his crew are thirty miles

to be held here while the celebration

unusually large number Of people can
be attracted to Hattiesburg on this
occasion if the proper preparation
shall be made, and it is the desire of

be glad to come back.
The local camp of veterans and the
Daughters of the Confederacy are do
ing their part towards arranging for
the reunion, while the Commercial

assistance, it is safe to say that the
