Meat Fifty Years Old.

The eighteen-year-old joint OF Eng
lish beef found recently in Leadenhall
market is mere stripping to the leg
of mutton reported not long ago from
Bourne, in Lincolnshire. Over half a
century ago a visitor called at a
butchers shop there and purchased
a leg OF mutton. saying he ~ould take
it away later. But the customer never
returned, and year after year the joint
has awaited him, until. hanging from
one of the rafters of the quaint old
shop, 1t has become one of the fix
lures, and has passed with the busi-
ness from one proprietor to another.
During the more than fifty years OF
waiting for its purchaser the leg has
withered away and now is shrunk to
the semblance OF q club Of .knotted
wood.

OH, YE MONARCHS OF THE NATIONS!

Oh, we monarchs of the nations
Where these wars and bloo1shed
RACES,
What will ye answer where the pages
OF the book of life are read
And God of We demands the dead?
When We are robbed of earthly baubles
And your earthly pomp and glory,
When naught is left of life's sweet
story,
When ye stand there empty handed
Have we done as he commanded?
oh, ye monarchs of the realms!
Would ye but have reigned in peace
Gould ye not this warfare cease,
Could We not as Christ OF old
Reign IN peace and strive 70 hold
Your great kingdoms of those lands
And give them back as God demands.

TOO MANY HORNS
TOO MANY NAMES
Man with One Name and
Two Aliases Has Two
Horns and Lands in Jail,
Where Charges Pile Up
Against Him.

James Mccoy, alias Richard Con-
roy, alias William Sullivan, has two
brass horns and couldn't play either
when Policeman Thurman encountered
him in China alley Sunday evening.
Mccoy also had liquid load aboard.
He endeavored to explain that some
one had given him a dollar to take
the horns to the Ford hotel, but he
was headed away from that hosiery,
so to set him right the policeman sug-
gested that he journey up to the city
Jail and perhaps he might make a
fresh start from there.
About the time of the arrival of
Mccoy at the city Jail a report was
received by the police that someone
had visited the Salvation Army bar
racks while services were being held
on a downtown corner and had taken
two horns, which are usually used by
the members. These horns which Nc
Coy had been carrying were identified
as the missing properly.
Yesterday morning while Mccoy was
reposing in the city Jail Alfonso Lee
vote, a carpenter, reported that man
giving the name of Richard Conroy
had on Saturday applied to him for
work. He had no work to offer, but
he went to his tool chest and took
therefrom a pair of overalls which he
donated. to Conroy. Later his tool
chest turned up missing and was
found in the Bargain Auction house,
where it had been sold late Saturday
afternoon. Conroy was identified as
Mccoy and also as the man who sold
the tool chest to the auction estab-
lishment. 1t wasn't long after that
that Mccoy, who then maintained his
name was Sullivan, was transferred
to the county jail.

MRS. MARY O'N|ELL
DIES IN WASHINGTON
Eugene Brady ONeiI Received Sad
Intelligence Yesterday

Eugene Brady O'Neill received the
crushing intelligence yesterday of the
death in Washington, D. c., of his
sanity mother Mrs Mary O'Neill,
who passed to the great beyond at
the advanced age of seventy-six
years. The information was convey
ed in telegram from John O'Neill,
a brother of his. Mrs. O'Neill was
well known in Washington. She had
been a resident of the District of
Columbia since the civil war There
she raised her family and there she
saw her boys go to school and
watched over them as they developed
into the young men who since came
west and made their mark on the
country.
Death was fastened by reason of a
weakness incurred as a result of an
operation she was forced to undergo
some three years ago. Mrs. O'Neill
had never fully recovered from this.
For the first time in many years this
year is the first that E. B. O'Neill
has not visited his mother in the
SulIllltl illiS liz IAlCibcu iioNCNSi
to so back there in the fall and
spend some time with her and the
other members of the family.
Mrs. O'Neill was extremely well
known. She had a personal acquaint-
ance with every general officer of
the union forces of the civil war,
and her collection of relics is said
to be unequalled outside of the gov
eminent museums The wife of a
soldier she taught her boys patriot
ism, and lived to see one of them,

NO RUSSIANS IN BELGIUM
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcHl

LONDON, Sept. 1.-THE official bu

landed in Belgium.
There is no truth whatever says
the bureau in the rumor that Russian
soldiers have landed or passed through
Great Britain on their way to France
or Belgium. The statement that Rus
sian troops are on Belgium or French
soil should be discredited."
