Monday afternoon and were totally de

with the exception of two hogs and some
hens. The total loss is about $4,000, with
insurance of $4,000.
Mr.. Hubbard, at the time the lightning
struck, was standing in the rear door of
the house and Mrs. Hubbard and their
son were approaching it through the gar.

PANAMA LAND TROUBLES.
Joint Land Commission the Subject of
Bitter Attack.

Panama, Aug ls.--Although the joint
land commission has suspended sitting
because of the absence of one of The
American commissioners, bitter attacks
upon the American members of the com.
mission and officials of the Panama canal
appear almost daily in the Panama
newspapers. Charges of unfairness and
prejudice, together with allegations OF
false testimony on the part of American
land inspectors are made.
The recent troubles of the land com
mission were due to the inability of the
two Panaman commissioners and the
two American commissioners to reach
agreements on amounts to be given GER
tain claimants. The attacks on Ameri-
can canal officials are directed chiefly
against Frank Feuille, special attorney
in charge of the claims, although Gov
ernor Goethals is also receiving a share
of the attacks.
For some time it has been the policy
of the Panaman members of the com
mission to be as liberal as possible with
the claimants, while on the other hand
the two American members have been
inclined to closely examine all claims
brought before the commission. In this
they have been upheld by American ca
nal officials 1t is frequently pointed
out by Mr.. Feuille that the United
States is already very liberal with claim
ants, but is decidedly opposed to paying
twice for the same tract of land TO
which the claimant has doubtful title.
The relations of the canal officials and
the two American commissioners are
also somewhat strained. "A recent award
in which the two commissioners agreed |
with the Panaman members was resent |
ID by the canal officials and incidentally |
brought down upon the American mem
,ers a rebuke from Secretary of State
lansing This award, while in itself |
sets precedent upon
which the price of lands in the immedi-
tie vicinity would be established. 1t
would mean the payment of approx
nately 100000 more for the land than
Is present market value.
Governor Goethals has asked Secretary
4 War Garrison to endeavor to have
he department of state arrange with
'anama for some other means of set
ling land claims. He advocates the or
anization of a special claims court to
it in the canal zone, from which claim
nts could appeal to a higher court in
he United States. Diplomatic difficult
es, however, confront this plan.

~HoNoR CITIZENS"
Germany's Popular Diversion Now Is
Granting Freedom of City.

Berlin, Aug ls.-Next to naming a
new baby or a statue or a bridge or
tower after Hindenburg, granting the
freedom of city to the commander of a
successful submarine is Germany's popu-
lar diversion at present. No less than
four naval commanders have thus been
honored and have been made "honor citi.
zens' of communities large and small.
The first one to be thus recognized
was Frigate Captain Won Mueller, com
mander of the sea raider Emden. The
city Of Emden, after the ships destruc.
ton, named Won Mueller its honor cit.
zen, while his birthplace, Blankenburg,
paid him similar tribute.
The city of Karlsruhe took the same
steps in the case of Frigate Captain
Erich koehler, commander of the karls.
ruhe, and Otto Weddigen, captain lieu.
tenant Of the 10 and the U-2e, who
persisted with the latter submarine, has

AIiledgeyille, Ca, Aug. ls.-Mrs. Lee

from shock at her husbands death. Fol
a time her physicians thought she would
die, but later she rallied.
Later Mrs. Frank, though still pros
trated. left there for Athens, where she
has an uncle. As she took the train she
was told her husband had been lynched.
Apparently she was steeled for the news
and bore up well.
A physician and nurse accompanied
her.
Mrs. Frank had been at the prison farm
since her husband was wounded by Green
last month.
She was not allowed to sleep in the
room with him, as she wished, however,
and did not know that Frank had been
kidnapped until short time after the
lynching party had left with him.
She was told of his danger before it
was known that he had been slain, Be-
fore the prison official had finished his
first sentence she swooned and went into
violent commissions.
1t was only with the greatest difficulty
she was revived. Trained nurses We're
sent to her from Athens, and after an
hours work the physicians said she had
some chance of recovery, though they
admitted the patient was still in serious
danger.
