WORST SNELLER is THE BEST SELLER

There is no more provincial place
on the continent, says one who
knows, than New York; no place 10
see life but life shriveled in the heat
of passion with men bereft of noble
manhood and lofty purpose and wo-
men pictured as ox-eyed and tinted
with peroxide, who dread fat more
than sin and who regard pimples as
their direst enemy. Of books, the
best seller is the worst smeller. OF
their dramas they revolve about the
seventh commandment. Let them
picture the scarlet woman and the
married rake and they lack neither
for readers nor spectators"
DR.. Burrows said there are men
who teach childen the deepest mys-
teries of life and refuse them the
Book of God. The church's oppor-
tunity lay in the publication in the
new building of clean, sober, uplift-

BURGLED BANK AND STORES.
Several Leesburg Establishments Wis.
tied by Robbers.

Wednesday night several down
town business houses were visited by
a burglar, who entered the postoffice,
bank and garage. The loss, however,
is reported as slight. The postotice
was entered from the rear through a
window, which was broken open. The
bank was entered by way of one of
the transoms at the front window.
No clew to the identity of the mis-
creant has yet been discovered, al
though it is said that if other bur-
glaries occur here there will be or
ganized a night patrol with plenty of
buckshot. That is the usual remedy
applied here, when burglars become
and it is practically al
ways effective immediately.-Lees-

MILLIONAIRE SLAIN BY OWN SON
Says George Washington" Ordered
the Deed Committed. The
Murderer Insane.

NEW YORK.-Chester Burnen
Duryea, chemist, who murdered his
aged father, Gen. Hiram Duryea, a
millionaire starch manufacturer, in
their Bay Ridge home in Brooklyn
early today, was removed in a
straight jacket from Jail to city hos
pital tonight after he had shown
what his keepers regarded as signs
of insanity.
In his Jail cell, where he was con-
fined after his arrangement, Duryea
paced about, mumbling to himself
and occasionally throwing up his
hands His relatives said earlier to-
day that he had shown indications
of mental responsibility in recent
years. The authorities decided on
his removal to the hospital so he
might not harm himself.
General Duryea, distinguished
civil war veteran and head of the IA
nous Duryea Zouaves, was shot
while in bed. He was asleep at the
time, it is believed. Incoherently the
son told how he committed the crime.
He gave no reason for it, but alleged
that he had received a spiritual mes
sage from George Washington to kill
the general, who was so years old.
The son was mild-mannered in court
and did not become violent until
placed in a cell.

INSURING EMPLOYEES.
Big Paterson Concern Pays Large
Sums For the Premiums.


A special telegram from Paterson,
n. j., to the New York Journal of
Commerce says:
Probably the largest contract for
life insurance ever made in this
country was closed in Paterson by Of
ficials of the National Silk Dyeing
Company and the Weidmann Silk
Dyeing Company Annex Works Of
this city with an insurance company
in Hartford, Conn.
THE National Silk Dy@ing Com
pany insured all of the employees of
the company in the various works,
located at Allentown, Pa, Williams
port, Pa, Dundee Lake and their
works in this city. Every person con-
nected with the companies will be in
sured, from the president and off
GERS of both companies down to the
helpers in the yard, and the aggre-
gate amount of insurance carried will
be about 100000.
This is said to indicate new
movement among large concerns.
They insure the lives of their en-
ployes and in this way get protection
for themselves and those who work
for them.

KILLED COWS BY MISTAKE.
Stewart County Farmer Gave Them
Nitrate of Soda Instead tf Salt.

Mr.. S. E. Beall killed six of his fin
est beeves a few days ago through
mistake. He rode out to his farm to
give his cows some salt, carrying a
good size brick along for the purpose.
Next morning he received a phone
message that some one had poisoned
his cattle and six were dead and
quite a number sick.
After an investigation it was learn
ed that he had made mistake and
gave his cattle nitrate of soda instead
of salt.
The chemical is very much like
salt when in large humps and while
every one sympathizes with Mr.. Beall
in the loss he has sustained they
should take warning and not do like

"The Defender, having sunk an

her swimming survivors; before the
whaler got back an enemy's cruiser
came up and chased the Defender,
and thus she abandoned her whaler.

London, Sept. 25.-The weather CON

Snow in A!sace.
The operations in Alsace-Lorraine
are said to have come to a complete
stop on ACCOUNT of snow storms. Rain
and floods are reported also from
the scene of the Galician operations
and probably account for the cessa-
ton of the Russian attack on the re-
