F. apooaat wrote to the general manager of the Grand Trunk notifying him of the city's finaneial condition and the imn. -dlate attention demanded to the streets. The Grand Trunk promptly offered to furnish the gravel free providing the city paid for the labor.

Edward Hart, one of the rioters, has jumped his bail bond of Sät, which his father paid. Another one. Devore, is still in the hospital. Ben Govan. another one. tied the State before being arrested. Govan was ten years in the penitentiary at Chester for manslaughter. In all State's Attorney Keesler does not expect to prosecute more than four or five more defendants for felony. The rest of them will be either prosecuted for defacing a public jail or rioting, or both misdemeartors. Judge M. V. Thompson says he will not try any more of the cases. He will hear motions for new trials Tuesday morning. Both he and State's Attorney Keesler are worn out and think they are entitled to a short rest. Judge E. R. E. Kimbrough will prcsi.ii' at the next term of court. Judge Thompson, in his trials of the riot cases, presided in an able and impartial manner, and was decidedly satisfactory to both the prosecuting attorney aud the attorneys for the defense. One of the anomalies of the last verdict is finding William Redwlne guilty of attempting to enter the jail with Intent to murder, a felony, while a former jury acquitted him under the same evidence on the charge of rioting, a misdemeanor. The punishment in the last case tried is from one to five years. Public opinion differs as to the correctness of the last verdict. Some think the evidence was insufficient to warrant the conviction of more than three or four defendants. Others think the punishment too severe to fit the crime, especially as it was the first conviction in Illinois, while a large number, especially mei chant, professional men and farmers, think the verdict was decidedlv correct. Nearly every one commends Sheriff Whltlock. Judge Thompson and State s Attorney Keesler for their course throughout the whole matter. SHOT DEAD BY A SENTRY M'.lhiK M' L. G. BRYSOX KILLED AT FORT H.

For the second time within five weeks a death-dealing explosion occurred to-day in the Jacob Ruppert ice factory. Joseph Dilley was mortally burned and scalded and John Dosse so seriously burned that he. too, may die. The explosion occurred in the boiler room, in which ten firemen and coal passers were working. It was caused by the breaking of a three-inch water pipe. The report was like that of a cannon, and instantly there was a volcanic burst of scalding steam, fiery coals and suffocating coal gas from the open boiler door. Dilley was hurled ten feet back against a brick wall and Fireman Dosse was thrown on a pile of coal. The other eight men in the boiler room fled in a panic, leaving their companions to their fate. Chief Engineer John Ertcsson and John Bryson, who were in an adjoining room, came to their rescue, and, throwing their coats over their heads, ran into the boiler room and dragged the unconscious men out. Both of the rescuers were burned, but not seriously. TRAI SIDES WIPED. Might Persons Injured, Two Sorlonsly, at Hntler. Pa. BCTLER.

Jack Gasway. 923 East Washington street, was arrested last night by Patrolmen Woodward and larsh and slated at the police station on a charge of obtaining money under false pretenses.

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 6. The police have another murder mystery to solve ss a result of the finding of the body of an unidentified man in the river at the foot of Lucas avenue. A bullet hole between the eyes, discovered when the body was taken to the morgue, is the basis for the theory that the man had been foully dealt with, and later developments at an autopsy held over the body strengthened this theory. The man was well dressed and had the general appearance of being prosperous. Only S cents were found in his pockets, which leads the police to believe that the murder was committed for the purpose of robbery. The body wss found about noon Sunday by t'apt. Patrick Burke, of the tug Robert E. Lee. The shoes worn by the dead man were marked D. A. Pitts, Cordele. Ga." The body had evidently been in the water about ten days. THROUGH STOMAC H TO SOIL. I nlque Evangelization Methods of a Wealthy Worth Carollalan. Montreat, N. C, Letter to New York Telegram. , The Salvation Army people have pressed the bass drum and the tambourine into the service of religion, but it remained for H O. Alexander, of this city, to so utilize the barbecue. Mr. Alexander is a cotton dealer of means, who has evangelization as an avocation. He owns a tract of ground in Buncombe county, near the crest of the Black mountain system, from which he has cleared the rhododendrons and laurel. Here for a week's Interval each summer he pitches a tent and holds services akin to the timehonored camp meeting. In this country it ia a long walk between churches, and so Mr. Alexander has a good field, which he cultivates in his own way with eminent success. He believes, evidently, that the way to the average man's heart ls through the stomach, and accordingly his advent is heralded bv the announcement that meeting's will be. inaugurated by a goodly feast of beef and mutton. Tldinga of this kind need no newspaper to spread them abroad, and that is a remote mountaineer who does not hear of it in time. The barbecueing is done on Saturday, and the prepared meats, in generous quantities, are stored away In great hampers to be dispensed after the Sunday morning's service. In this starving land prime roatt beef is a rare bait, and the people aome.

HEALING BV MACHINERY. Automatic Devices Whirh Take tha Place of Kapert Sargeoni. Nea- York Press. Hospital patients can now be nursed by machinery. An inventor has recently patented an Ingenious little machine, consisting of a small box, in which is a self-registering thermometer, connected electrically with a tiny bell. This register Is put under the armpit of a person suffering from fever, and when his temperature rises the bell rings aud the doctor or nurse is summoned. A wound stitching machine Is the Invention of another doctor named Mb hel It works very much more rapidly than the old method of stitching by hand, is painless and effective. It consists of a case or sheath holding a number of uickel hooks or bands, like those used for the corners of cardboard boxes. They are put in position with a pair of forceps and can be adjusted at the rate of twenty-five a minute. Their rounded points do not penetrate the lower layer of the akin, but only the ipiderrnis. and therefore the pain caused by them is very slight. They have the additioual advautage of being very easily disinfected A most curious invention Is that of Dr. Coakley for stimulating a weak heart. It consists of a hollow needle sons eight Inches long, made of an alloy of gold, and driven by a little electric motor. It Is so shaped that it can be used to sctuslly pierce the heart and inject into it a solution of salt and warm water, which will stimulate the organ and so prolong and it illl Ju jiiiuu le . similar ls the device h is for the cur A of pains.
