CHARLTON TO WAIT TILL 1919
Alleged Wife Murderer's Appeal 10
Delayed by Supreme Court
Killed Spouse in Italy.

Jersey City, N. j., Dec. 12.-Porter
Charlton, accused Of having slain his
wife at Lake Como, Italy, in June,
1910, after a year and half in the
Hudson county Jail is facing another
year and a half Of inaction. All the
persons concerned are apparently will
ing that the case shall take It's tedious
course. The mans father, Judge Paul
Charlton Of Porto Rico, and others Of
the family have made no move to
hasten judicial action and Major
Scott, brother of the murdered won.
an, also is silent.
The case is delayed by Charlton's
appeal to the Supreme court against
extradition. Indications are that his
appeal will not be reached before
1913. His extradition to Italy, it IL
believed, would result IN sentence
Of twenty years Imprisonment.

BOMB HURLED in THEATER
TWO Are Killed, Sixty-Three Hurt, In
Belgium Show House by Sup

Liege, Belgium, Dec. 12.-The bomb
explosion which occurred during a
cinematographic exhibition here has
resulted in the death of two persons
and sixty-three others are suffering
from serious injuries.
Eight of the victims had legs ampu-
tated. The theater was crowded with
workmen at the time Of the explosion
and a terrible panic ensued. The
bomb, which was charged with dyna-
mite, was loaded with nails. It is be-
lieved that 1t was thrown by maniac
and not by revengeful discharged
employee, as was at first supposed.

Briceville, Tenn, Dec. 12.-Sixteen
bodies have been recovered and identi-
fed and rescue parties have renewed
their-hacking and digging in an attempt
to force the Big Cross mountain mine
here to give up it's dead Having
forced their way three miles into the
mountain and bratticed most of the
mines cross entries, members of the
rescue crew expect to stumble on to
corpse strewn chambers at any hour
Discovery of the first body came at
10 o'clock. when dead miner was
found in sitting posture in one of the
interior chambers. He was Andrew
Johnson Indications were that he
had been victim of black damp.
1t is estimated the explosion rem
dered ffty-six women widows and
made 1874 children orphans.
There is no doubt that there are 100
or more dead men remaining in the
mine. All hope of rescuing any of the
scores who went to their toll to be
embraced by death has been aban-
doned.
Bereaved Women Watch Shaft.
Discovery of eight more bodies
prompted crowds to gather at the
death cavern early in the morning.
Of the eight dead men discovered
three were sitting bolt upright in a
mine car. while the bodies of five
others were lying on the ground
Their deaths came nv exn1OSiOn If

Killed Trying to Phone News.
Charles Kesterson, whose body was
one of the first discovered, was found
at the telephone back in the mine by
the rescuing crew Evidently Kester-
son had been trying to telephone
news of the blast to the Office Of the
mines when he was struck by falling
debris. His skull was mashed and his
body was cut.
It was day Of grief in Briceville,
pail of sorrow hanging over the
town. Thousands gathered about the
mine shaft, but maintained an awed
silence.
Steps have been taken to establish
the work of the American Red Cross

resentative of the society, has reached
the scene The work Of Mr.. Logan
probably will be first to investigate as

children and to take steps to supply
these.

ROOSEVELT BOON is ON:
TO BE CANDIDATE IN 1922
Washington Dispatch Says Friends Of
Former President Are Active
To Select Convention City.

Washington, Dec 12.-All attempts
to disguise the fact that concerted
movement is on foot looking to the
nomination Of Col Theodore Roose-
welt as the Republican candidate for
president in 1912 we're apparently
dropped when it became known that
members OF the national committee
were being sounded as to their view
of the feasibility of forcing" the
nomination on the former president.
Supporters of Mr. Roosevelt, now
here, are basing all Of their argu-
ments in his behalf on the claim that
while the former president has an
nOunced that he is not candidate he
has not stated that he would not ac-
cept the nomination if 1t were ten
dered to him. They claim that as a
good American citizen" Colonel
Roosevelt could not do otherwise than
accept, once the convention had act
ed.
Washington, Dec. 12-Late corners
among the members of the Republican
national committee who arrived in
Washington for the meeting to be
held this week found that the pro-
gram Of procedure practically had
been agreed upon, and that apparent
ly the only possibility of friction
would be transfer of the factional
differences in Ohio to the national
committee.
Prominent Ohio Republicans con-
tinued in conference in an effort to
bring about at least a semblance Of
harmony. The chief difference is
over the method of selecting dele
gates to the Republican national con-
vention. Walter Brown, chairman Of
the state committee, and Arthur L.
Vorys, the national committeeman
from the state, were in conference
until late.
This program includes selection
of Chicago as the convention city and
fixing the time as the last week in
June. Former Governor John F. Hill
Of Maine, who has been acting chair
man since the resignation of Postmas-
ter General Hitchcock, will formally
pc elected chairman, but Will serve
only until the convention dominates,
when man agreeable to the presi-
dental candidate will be elected by
the newly constituted committee. Col.
Harry S. New of Indiana is to head
the subcommittee of five which will
make arrangements for the conven-
ton. probably including the selection
of temporary and permanent chair
men, including the keynote orator.
The committee will discuss presi-
Dental primaries at some length, but
will declare that the subject is one
for the disposition of the states.

Bird JekyII and Hyde.

The catbird is our northern mock
ing bird. When love attunes its voice,
1t can MARBLE as sweetly as the night
ingale. You must catch it in one of
its melting moods if You would know
the charm Of its liquid notes. It is
not at all beautiful-no more is the
mocking bird-only a ~gray-brown,
perky, restless thing. Of lesser size
than the robin, with the soul Of song
in 1t.
The wonder Of the catbird lies, Of
course, in this, its DIAL ~nature At one
time it hops about screening COM
plants against the circumambient air
at another there throbs out from it's
delicate throat the essence of a divine

Triumph Of Courage.

Courage and the "power OF the hui
man eye" saved Walter Sargent, a
prosperous rancher. in the Redwood
district, San Jose, when he was con-
fronted by a hungry mountain lion the
other evening. Sargent was driving
a herd Of cows to his home In the
foothills when he noticed the big cat
stalking him. AS 1T crouched for a
spring Sargent turned and fixed the
beast with his eye. Man and lion
remained as immovable as statues for
a few seconds and then the animal
turned and trotted away.
The Tupelo journal., 1911-04-21

on day after day, night after night,
until trainers and beasts were almost
dead with fatigue.
Several of the groups exhibited.
there were memorable. Twenty leap
ards had been assembled and taught
to walk ropes, shoot guns. jump hur-
dies, ride bicycles, roll barrels and
pose In many positions. Another
group, which consisted Of seventeen
animals, included lions, tigers, pumas.
bears, hyenas, boar hounds, wolves
and one panther. In addition to the
diff Guilty of teaching these beasts ia
perform there was the task OF train
ing them to forget their natural In
sincts and enter a cage together with
out ighting.
Most remarkable OF all these groups
and in fact the most remarkable n
NAL group ever assembled, was Cap
tain Bonavita's company OF thirty
lions. Everyone was q fierce black
named Numidian lion. Yet Captain
Bonavita had complete mastery over
them.
Animals so schooledare often
snoken OF as "tame." Animal train
ers say there is no such thing as .
tame wild animal. Performing anil
mails are trained, not tanned. They
do not reason, but go through their
tricks parrot-like.
Serious indeed may be the outcome
of any innovation made while the
trainer is Gagged with his pupils. On
one occasion an admirer OF Madame
pianka sent her some red roses just
before a performance. She thought
lessly took them and entered b
cage A lion sprang forward n
made a sweep at the roses, fearfully
decorating Madame Pianka's arm and
chest She threw the roses from her
lust in time. For other lions leaped
from their pedestals and pounced on
the roses. They had mistaken them
for meat. At another time Mr.. Bos-
took entered a cage to help Madame
Pianka with . sulky Honess. no
thoughtlessly struck his whip against
his boot. Instantly the mate OF the
~lioness, thinking no doubt that harm
was intended, sprang upon MI. bos-
took and downed him. then picked
him up in his mouth and carried him
to Madame Pianka. In the latter's
hand was q revolver, used IN her act.
she instantly fred two shots. which
was the cue for the next act. and the
lion dropped Mr.. Bostock and fell into
his accustomed pose. To this hold OF
habit upon the lion. MI. Bostock
owed his life.
OF the hazards Of animal training
It is almost superfluous to speak.
Every animal trainer is 1t times
clawed and bitten. He expects to be.
It Is all in the days work.
Animal trainers say that Il they ex-
ercise proper care, they run no great
err risk than do miners. locomotive en-
gineers. iron-workers and other men
who follow hazardous callings. Per
haps that Is true; certainly a man
is on record who handled animals
with entire impunity. His name was
Noah and he lived in the ark.

Parents and chiIdren's Faults.

Parents ought to collaborate with
teachers In helping to develop the
best in their children. and conse-
quently to eliminate the worst. In
stead Of this view Of the matter we
(says Ella Wheeler Wilcox find par
ents taking a stand against the
teacher who tries to talk of the faults
of their children and discuss q rem
edy, and all the work which the teach
er has hoped to do in character build
ing falls to the ground under the
lifted hammer of the unwise and
belligerent parent, who insists that
my child" must be without faults,
and that the teacher who sees faults
is IN enemy, not a friend. 1t ID sci
dom, indeed, that a man or a woman
occupying the position of a teacher is
prejudiced or has personal or selfish
motives for c~riticising a child.
