! Mrs. Max Henrici. wife Of the city

enter her room before morning. and
few hours after having this weird
dream 3awoke to find that really and
truly there stood a burglar II. the

She retired Monday night as usual,
but did not sleep soundly during the
early part az the evening. After e:-
periencing such. a dream she fell
asleep. AtsS:3o o'clock she awol1e
andtat once. noticed that her room
was very cold. looking toward the
window which she had left closel 1t
was open and the outside shutters
had also been. thrown wide open. The
inner shade was pulled down and
this had been left up. Jtys,.. 4
She lay still for. q moment and
soon heard the footsteps Of the mid
night intruder. Creeping out Of her
bed on the opposite side from the
robber she could plainly see him
standing by the dresser and present
ly he flashed his electric I pocket
nash-ligtt on the bureau and was
ransacking this for yaluables. The
brave young woman, attempted to
creep out Of the room without he
ing detected but just as she reached
the door and was on the point 3of
getting into the adjoining room,
where her husband was asleep, the
robber flashed his light squarely into
her face. s (
This so frightened the young wo-
man that she screamed at the top OF
her voice and wakened every one in
the house. Her husband rushed in
to the room, but at this time the
burglar had jumped out of the open
window onto the front porch and
once gaining the street, easily made
his escape. Positively no clue was
left. !!s .S,,. 81,
The fright Of Mrs. Henrici was aw--:

LUKE LEA WINS.
Elected Senator From Tennessee by
Legislature.

IA dispatch from Nashville says
striking at the psychological move
ment Monday won for Editor Luke
Lea, OF the Tennessean, the United
State Senatorship, in the fight before
the Legislature over the seat soon
to be made vacant by Senator Jas. 3.
Frazier. At 1 o'clock Monday morn
ing Mr.. Lea said he would not allow
his name to be used. At IL a. m.
Monday the Fusionists had decided
to vote solldly for one candidate, but
whom they did not know. At 1880

loe, whom .hey had been supporting,
and go to Mr.. Lea, who had just
given his consent to being put in the
race. He was nominated at 1890.
The victory of Lea is one for pro-

TAE PLAGUE in CHINA
BLACK DEATH GROWS WORSE
ALL THE TIME. q.
Over Fifteen Hundred Deaths Occur
in Fudziadian, and Bodies Are
Piled in the Street.

A dispatch from Hardin, Manchur.
la, says Fudziadian, suburb OF Har-
bin, and the particular plague spot
OF Manchuria, Is to be isolated as the
first systematic ecort to exterminate
the plague that has grown more
threatening every day.
This was decided upon at a con
ference participated in by the taotai,
the head of the local Chinese govern
ment, and English and Chinese ply
sicians. II
The movement is due to pressure
brought by the Russian government,
which, realizes the seriousness of the
situation.
A Russian physician who has just
completed an inspection of Fudsiad-
ian discovered three plague sources
i'll the neighborhood of which 1000
persons reside. Corpses are piled
high in the streets and in the yards
adjoining the homes. Last week
there were 1900 deaths in Fudziad-
ian.
The government is sending a note
to the Chinese ministers abroad in
structing them to invite the govern
ments to which they are accredited
to send experts to the affected dis
tricts to study the bubonic plague
and means for it's determination. The
government offers to bear the ex-
penses Of the crusade.
DR.. Zabolotny, who has Just re-
turned to st. Petersburg, Russia,
from a tour of inspection in the far
East, states that Observation-Disclosures,
the capital of Amur province, In
Asiatic Russia, Tchita, the capital of
Transatlantic, Siberia; Irkutsk,
the capital of the government OF
Irkutsk, and the maritime provinces
are menaced by the plague.
The doctor says European Russia
is in NO immediate danger.
