The annual cost of the maintenance of each man at the homes was 11:121.45, a decrease from the previous year of $13.50; the deaths were 1,050, au increase of 20. Tho inspection of the state homes shows that in general they are economically managed. Every year the original admissions to the various homes more than make up the losses by discharges and death. There are now 1,000,000 persons living who, if they become nonsnpportable, will be entitled to admission to the national home.” NOT DISCOURAGING CONTESTS.

McCann was blown 10 feet into the air and the others were prostrated by the shock. McCann's right leg was torn from his Ixxly and a portion of the pick entered bis head. He will probably die.

Lexington, Ills., Dec. 8.—Yesterday afternoon Michael Reedy of Chicago, 33 years old, met a terrible and almost instant death in this city. Reedy was foreman of a gang of men engaged in building a watertower for Lexington. They were on a scaffold, 75 feet from the ground, turning a sheet of boilerplate, weighing Tiid pounds, so as to lit it to the tank The iron canted over and knocked Reedy from the scaffold.

Evidence Against Jordan.

Tho evidence against Jordan is chiefly of his own admission. He culled at the morgue to seo if he could identify the body, thinking, he said, that it might be Barnes, whom he had not seen since Tuesday. He at ouoo identified the body as that of Barnes. It was conclusively proven that he had been with Barnes later than Tuesday and had been several times in the basement of the building since Wednesday night, when the murder was probably committed, and ho made no report of the bhxxl stains. Also iu his coat pocket were found pieces of carpet identical with that found with

tho body.
