There was a coal famine In England
In 1885. England was at the time at

impossible to get through to London.
A period Of great privation ensued.
Writing In his diary In June, 1867,
Pepys observes that "the great misery
the city and kingdom Is like to suffer
for want of Goals is very visible and, it

JUDGE SHOT AT HIS DOOR
Rhode Island Jurist Believed Victim
of Revenge.

Providence, l. l., Sept. T.-NOrth
Scituate has murder mystery which
mas completely baffled the town po
lice and high sheriff's department
in the shooting of Judge Willis S.
Knowles, almost at his door at 1880
o'clock Monday morning. While his
housekeeper, Mrs. Cora Wardwell,
was almost in sight of the Judge when
he was brought dowr neard man
exclaim: There, I've GST you at
last" and went Immediately to the
roadside to investigate. She did not
see anybody, and there hasn't been
the slightest clae obtainabie as to the
identity of the assassin or anything
determined az 20 why he killed the
Judge.
Willis S. Knowles, Judge Of the
eighth Judicial district court, left his
home at the usual hour to go down
to the village of Thornton, where his
court is held. This was six miles
away, and before reaching the troi-
ley line he was to walk through a
little wooded patch not far from his
house. He had been absent not to
exceed a minute and was barely 200
feet away from his door when from
an ambush somebody fired three
shots, two of which took effect in his
back and one in his hand. 1t is evil
dent that he staggered toward his
home and had fallen in the road when
Mrs. Wardwell, having heard the
shots and the exclamation, ran out
to the pathway to investigate.
She feared that he had come to
harm for the reason that he had told
her he feared bodily harm for various
reasons in connection with his official
duties.
Discovering that he had been badly
hurt, she called for assistance, but
before any of the neighbors could re-
spond he died.
An alarm was spread through the
town and the farmers turned out in
search of the murderer. Two Italians
were held up, one of whom had
revolver. but these proved to be
ordinary fruit pilferers, gave a salts
factory account of themselves and
were released.

some one reminded her OF a certain
lady she would probably hesitate for
q moment and then say, ''Oh. yes. the
lady with the camel facer' or, ''Oh, l
remember-she had COW facer' This
memory system was not fattering to
her friends. but it showed how satu-
