Term Prisoners.

Two prisoners serving life sem
tences at the State penitentiary were

ernor Blease. She was convicted in
1897 on the charge of killing Hen
rietta Sullivan, and upon recommen-
dation of the mercy of the Court

WHITE CITIZEN ARRESTED.
Sensation Sprung in the Langford
Murder Case.

A dispatch from Brunson says a
sensational feature in the Langford

ing, and hurried to the Penitentiary

car doors were slammed shut. All
but one. This door was left open In
the excitement and 1t was through 1T

being fired on the, outside, I then left
the car. ON the outside, I was held
| up. My hands were in the air. I
heard two explosions. The first was
not so loud. The second was tre-
mendous. I thought the whole car
had been shattered. Six of the win
dows were torn to pieces. The pas
sengers rushed to the windows ana
doors, but seeing armed men, hud-
died together inside the car. There
were seven in the band.
s"There were two safes of money
!; in my. express car. The large safe
contained s65, 900. The smaller safe,
the one blown open, contained

cent of the money in it was taken:
1t was "a terrible experience, although
not man was injured. The rob-
bers didn't strike a blow. At first
! we thought the men were inexperi-
enced, but. two were recognized and
I could identify them If seen again.
t'While was being held up at tn:
point Of the pistol, the flagman and
engineer were experiencing the same
sensations. AS soon as the money
from. the smaller safe was secured
the two men, who were working IN
side the car came to the door and
jumped. All of us were ordered to
get back on the train. The pistols
were still on u.s. We were ordered
to move. AS soon as the train start
ed the men darted down the embank-
ment and were lost in the heavy
woods"

Mind the window, Morrie!" eau
toned fVe-year-old Sadie SOLOMON,
who, with her brother, Morris, aged
three, was bouncing a ball against a
wall in the front room of their home
on the fourth floor of No: 1895 Park
avenue, New York Friday afternoon,
The boy and girl we're standing
on a bed while playing their game Of
3;hand-ball and the; springs lent elias
fticity to their leaps after the ball.
The bed was alongside the window.
The last time the lad struck the
ball it shot toward the window.
Morris with cry OF, alarm jumped
for. it and caught it in his chubby
lists. But in leaping he failed to
take into account the bedsprings,
which shot him. into the air and
through the window head, foremost.
A hundred feet up the block was
Herman Panzie Of No. 50 East Nine
ty-ninth street. He saw the BABY
come crashing through The window,
as die several other persons: Panzie
started on run, with outstretched
arms, in the hope of catching the
child before he struck the ground.
"A woman across the street rushed
quickly to the other. side with her
skirts held outslike iifenet.
But both were too late, though
Panzie only missed catching Morris
by a few inches, his Jacket grazing
the finger tips Of the mans hands.
Morris struck the pavement on his
head. When Panzie picked him up
he was still breathing and the man
ran all the way with him to Mount
Sinai Hospital, four. blocks distant.
The boy died Just as the hospital was
reached, the rubber ball still in his
hands. Il # ..@.. p; - :

intervals, since nightfall. Every out
going train, freight and passenger,
is being halted and searched by po-
lice and citizens.
The excitement throughout the
city is intense, and shotld the slayer
of Officer Gunnels be captured and
brought back to Greenville there will
undoubtedly be danger of lynch
ing.
The funeral services over the re-
mains of the dead officer were held
Saturday afternoon. The board of
police commissioners and the police
force will attend in a body. A Sc
lected squad of police will act as
pa1lbearers, while interment will be
accompanied by Masonic rites.

NURSING SERVICE
AN IMPORTANT DEPARTMENT OF
RED CROSS ORGANIZATION.
National Society Expects to Enroll
10000 Trained Nurses for Service
in Time of War or Disaster.

! A red cross on white ground en-
circled by the words. American Ma
tional Red Cross Nurse" in letters
of gold on blue, enamel. the whole
enclosed in laurel wreath--this is
fthe official emblem OF the Nursing
Service Of the American Red Cross,
and no higher honor can be bestowed
iupon 9, nurse than the right to wear
this hadg ge, for it means that she is
pledged to the service Of her coun-
, try. This emblem is protected by
law, and sti'' further to prevent it's
improper use each badge Is num-
bered and the names and addresses
of the nurses to whom they are is
fsued are on file in the Red Cross Of
fee in Washington. 5,s. =
The, selection of these nurses Is
one Of the most important duties de-
: wolving upon the Red Cross, and so
important indeed did this duty seem
that Il National Committee on Red
Gross Nursing Service was appointed
BY the War Relief Board of the
american Red Cross in December,
1909. This committee, consisting Of
j nine members representing the
Nurses Associated Alumnae of the
| United States, and Blk members rep
re,senting the American Red Cross,
was made responsible for the organ
ization of an adequate nursing per-
sonne.l which shall be at all: times
available for service under the BAN
ner of the Red Cross.
! The magnitude of this undertak-
ling may be indicated by the follow
ing figures: During the last year Of
1.-THE Civil War there we're 204 General
Hospitals under the control of the
Medical Department Of, the United
Army, with q capacity of 136,S94
beds.
If the Medical Department Of the
Army of 1865 had undertaken to fur
nish nursing service comparable
with that which is considered neces-
gary in our large hospitals today, an
s.rmy Of over $4,000 nurses would
have been required. There were,
however,& no trained nurses available
in those dark years of the Civil War,
HUT today there, are in the United
States alone over, SO, 900 women who
lhaye graduated from training schools
Tor nurses, than which there are none
better in the world, and from these
lrhe Red Cross hopes to enroll at
lseast 10000 nurses-10,000 selected
women who are not only vouched for
by the schools for nurses from which
they have graduated, but are recon-
mended by well-known members OF
their own profession.
The system of enrolment adopted
by the Red Cross is guarantee TO
| the nation that IN the stress of ca
1amity or the turmoil of war there
stands ready for service a band OF
women worthy to follow in the foot
steps Of their great teacher and ex-
emplar, Florence Nightingale.

Two Rival Colored Undertakers De-
lay Funeral.

The spectacle of two coiored un-
dertakers + Sighting like tigers for pos
session of corpse shipped for burial
confronted passengers al!ghting from
the afternoon seaboard train at

undertaken, undertook to scoop the
remains instead.
In the battle resulting, Barnum
was knocked cold with brickbat
and ere he recovered, Simmons had
captured the prize and departed in
triumph. The undertakers' battle
created intense excitement in celored
circles, and will be umpired in the
court.

For CONSULTATION.
\ Medium That Does Not Cost Any
thing Unless 1t Cures.


The active medicinal ingredients
of Rexall Orderlies, which are odor-
less tasteless and colorless, is an en-
tirely new discovery. Combined
with other extremely valuable ingre-
dents it forms a perfect bowel regu-
lator, intestinal irvigorator and
strengthened. Rexall Orderlies are
eaten like candy, and are notable
for their leeableness to the palate
and gentIeness of action. They do
not cause gripping or any disagreea-
BILE effect or inconvenience.
Unlike other preparations for
like purpose they do not create a
habit, but instead they overcome the
cause of habit acquired through the
use of ordinary laxatives, cathartics
and harsh physic, and permanently
remove the cause of constipation or
Irregular bowel action.

TO FLY AROUND THE WORLD.
Barring Big Sheets of Water Capt.
Baldwin VIII Try 1t.

Capt. T. S. Baldwin has started
on a trip around the world in his
aeropIane He started last week
from San Francisco on a steamship
for Honolulu. He will sail over the
Hawaiian Islands in his aeroplane,
and will then take a ship to Yoko-
hOma. From YOkohoma he will fly
to Tokyo, and then over the Japa-
nese islands until he reaches a point
whence he may be able to fly into
China. From Hong Kong he will fly
south, and then go to Manila and fly
through the Philippine Islands. From
the Philippines he will sail to the
mainland of Asia, and from there
work his way through the Malay
Peninsula, Bombay, Calcutta and
other we'll known places in India.
From India he expects to go to Per-
STA, through the Holy Land and into
Egypt. He expects to be the first
man to fly over the top of the IA
nous rock of Gibraltar. The final
stages of the fight will be through
Spain, France and into England.
From England he will return to the
United States.
In all the large places Captain
Baldwin hopes to make professional
and thus pay the expens-
as of the trip. He will take with
him two extra aeroplanes and three
mechanics. Captain Baldwin is 60
years old, and will take three years
on the trip. He will take a ship
wherever there is a large body of
water, but will use his aeroplane in

Hatcher if he needed it.
Mr.. Hatcher was so touched by the

his face. He explained to his faith

not money trouble, and told them
how much he appreciated their call,
and kind offer.

Hatcher feels that he has experience

Went Travelling About.
A gentleman who in his mundane
existence goes under the name of
Herman Fiebenguhl left his body in
a st. Louis boarding house, he says,
and went travelling in his unclad
soul. He reports an enjoyable trip
and a very sociable time with kindred
spirits with whom he hobnobbed
while on his journey. All the souls
he met were about the size and
shape Of a goose egg, hut colored
according to their characters Blue
souls, for example, were supersti-
tiousi red, blood-thirsty; white, I'M
cultured, High livers had pink
bands or dots on the soul egg shell;
humorists We're green, and brown
souls were deceptive and NOT to he
trusted.
A mass meeting of assorted souls
must look like a collection Of Easter
eggs if Mr.. Fuebenguhrs facts are re-
liable, facetitiously comments Sue

and is apparently expecting to keep
soul and body together with the pro
Ceeds.
