A balloon drifting across the sky. with the parachute hanging empty, brought the first tidings this evening to I,. M. Jones, of St. Units, that his son. Luther I-Mw-ird, aged had lain da: lied to (hath at Mildred Park. Knowing that the young aeronaut was to make- the ascent at ' o'clock, the father, who had gone to the Alton depot to take a train for St. Louis, had watched the'.-ky in thf oirectioii of Mildred Park. Young .lone:-, was da:r..ed aaainst the branch of a dead tree a second after the big balloon was let go from the ground. His skull was fractured. Without uttering a cry the lifeless body was hurled downward nearly 1 feet into the midst of a crowd of over a thousand persons. BUYING VOTES. tl'hen British K.Ieotors Got Golden Kfni From the Moon. Votes have been purchased shamelessly and on a huge scale in British elections. An arrangement was once made in the borough of Wendover by which two candidates were to be elected after a distribution of 6,000 ($30,000 1 among the voters. The account reads: "This being settled, a gentleman was employed to go down, when, he was met according to previous appointment by the electors about a mile from the town. The electors asked tlat stranger where he came from. He replied, 'From the moon.' They then asked, 'What news from the moon?' He answered that ho had brought from thence 0,000 to be distributed among them. The electors, being thus satisfied with the golden news from the moon, chose the candidates and received their reward." At Hindon a man dressed fantastically as the dancing Punch called at the houses of the voters and left behind him sums of 5 to 10 guineas ($2." to )?jOi. Another device was to collect the citizens at the inns and hand them their reward through a hole in the door. For these offenses the house of commons passed a resolution that Hindon should be disfranchised, but so lax were the morals of the time the close of the eighteenth centnry that the resolution was never acted upon. Again In 1859 the "man In the moan" turned up In Wakefield. He went about openly distributing money and did not nppear to be in the least ashamed of his occupation. At Dublin In lStiS a hole In the wall served the purpose of a distributing center for tive pound notes, while at Shaftes-

bury an alderman paid through a hole Castro wil fulfill his duty whatever it In the door of his otllee a sum of 20imav be. The paper also publishes a guineas ($100 to each elector.-Chloago ,)anisall sneech in which the I'nited

News. llnrlem In New York. In IGoO there was a settlement at the foot of a little hill on Manhattan Island which the settlers called Slang Berge. or Snake Hill, but which is now called Mount Morris. As the settlement grew each Dutchman who lived there wanted to name it after his native town. But as each one had come from a different place in Holland they could not agree. Governor Stuyvesant made careful inquiries, and. rinding that no one had come from Haarlem, he nipped all neighborly jealousies In the bud by naming it Nieuw Ilaarlem. Care of the Dos:. Dogs vary greatly in their appetites, and occasionally w- find a dainty feeder who will nose over a mixed dish of food, picking out a bit here and there and showing but little relish for what he does eat. This is an evident sign that something is wrong. Cha aging his teeth, if a puppy, thus disturb! ug his system, may be the cause, and in this case a little cooling medicine shouhl be given. The Wornt Part. A professor of Trinity college, Dublin, overhearing mi undergraduate maiKias '.ise of profane language, rushed t hi m frantically, exclaiming, "Are you aware, sir. that you are imperiling your immortal soul and. what is worse. Incurring a fine of 5 shillings?" Proof. Edle Were you taken by surprise when he rroposfxl. dear? Ella Good ness, yes: Why. I hadn't even looked . . - . ; " ..

Pickpockets and Confidence Men Now Swarming in Chicago. POLICE TO GUARD THE CITY Chicago. 111., June Delegates o the republican national convention will not want for police protection during their stay. Measure:; are being taken to insure the safety of visitors. A large number of di-tfct ives have been detailed to circulate among the national committeemen and other politicians in the Chicago hotels. Amors the criminals now gathered hire are four of the cleverest women pickpocket in the world. They left New York a week ago. "We know who the women are, and I have six detectives making a search for them." said Captain O'Brien. "We expect to hear from them shortly. We have a mimber of New York detectives aiding us in our search." In police stations throughout the city are prisoners who will be detained until after the convention. In this number are 4 )o known thieves, including IP', pickpockets. U roomworkcrs and lc confidence men. Infectives from every large city i:i the country are here to assist the Chicago police. CONSUMPTIVE TEACHERS! MAY BE OUSTED Afflicted St. Louis Pedagogues May Lost Positions. St. Louis. Mo.. Juno S. Before adjourning last night the Anti-Tubercular League, which held a three-day session here, passed resolutions to determine th best method of ousting all consumptive teachers in all schools who are spreading the disease and endangering the lives of the pupils. Sjens were also taken to secure legislation requiring all railroads to run special coaches for consumptives, that the spread of the disease from that quarter may be curbed.

Is Caracas, June v. EI Constitutional, the official organ of President Castro, publishes a new Y'ork letter slating that it is rumored the Tinted Suites will secretly support Colombia in case of war with Venezuela. In an editorial El Constitutional discredits the report, but savs President States is called "the Cain of America, which simulates fraterial cordiality in order to disguise brutal instincts. Man and His Tailor. A mau can be measured to the best advantage, tailors say, away from a glass. Standing before a mirror he is almost certain to throw out his chest, if he does not habitually carry it so, and take an attitude that he would like to have rather than the one he commonly holds, whereas the tailor wants him, as the portrait pailWfer wants his subject, in his natural pose and manner. With the man in that attitude the tailor can bring his art to bear, if that Is required, in the overcoming of any physical defect and produce clothes that will give the best attainable effect upon the figure as they will be actually worn. New York Sun. Buckingham's Pranks. After the defeat arid flight of Charles I. the daredevfi Duke of Buckingham disgHlsed himself as a mountebank, set up a stage in the heart of London and for days laughed in the faces of the stern Puritans, who were thirsting for his life. One day when his own sister, the beautiful Duchess of Richmond, was passing the Jocular duke set the mob on to drag her from her carriage. They forced her to witness the pranks of her brother, whom she recognized, but could not betray. Mora Important. Tess Bess doesn't seem so quick to deny her age as she used to be.

Danger to drivers of automobile grows rapidly greater with each ne burst of speed. A correspondent o the Scientific American develops tl. theme as follows: "The danger in a' cases increases as the square of tla speed. Take three machines of tl: same make, one going live miles a. hour, one twenty miles an hour an one forty miles an hour. The secoii has stored up in it, due to its rnpidit of motion, sixteen times as nm energy as the firit, and if it leaves 11: road and runs into an obstacle, sues a tree, a stone wall or a ditch, i will strike with sixteen times as gre. force. In going around a curve c turning a corner it is sixteen times ;; likely- to upset, skid into the ditch -strip a tire. When the power is sht off and the brakes applied it will g sixteen times as far before it can b brought to a stop. If it comes upon : pedestrian suddenly the latter will hav to exert sixteen times as much en erg to get out of the way in time and i struck will be struck with sixteen time the force. The third machine will lx sixty-four times as likely to get int trouble in going around a curve as tin first. - "An object going five miles an hour is moving with the same speed as it would Lave attained in falling ten inches. In moving ten miles an hour it is going as fast as though it had fallen three and a half feet. Twenty miles an hour is generally considered a very conservative speed. Now, twenty miles an hour Is the same speed that would be obtained were the ma chine to fall thirteen feet through the air. thirty miles an hour is equivalent to a fall of thirty feet, forty miles an hour to a fall of fifty two feet, sixty miles an hour to a fall of 120 feet and 120 miles an hour to a fall of 4S0 feet. "A person struck by an automobile going twenty-five miles an hour receives the same jar as though he himself had fallen from a height of twentyone feet, or, say, from a second story window; by one going forty miles an hour, as though he had fallen fiftytwo feet, or, say, from the top of a lofty tree; by one going 120 miles an hour, as though he himself had fallen from the top of the Washington monument." Tyrian Dye. The people of Tyre were such experts in dyeing that Tyrian purple remains unexcelled to this day. The n.gyptlans were also wonderful dyers and could produce colors so durable that they may be cailed imperishable. They were also wonderful glass workers and could make glass malleable In a way which is unknown to us. They could make class carmests dyed

PREACHES TO THAW

At the i i-m -ins-ion of the sermon Thaw , who was much in-eivru-d. asked to be introduced to Mrs. Barr. He took her hand, asktd Iter to he seated and they (i m versed for some time. According to private letters which have been received hero. Thaw is not -the only one in New York who nas been impressed by Mrs. Barr's sermons, as at the conclusion of the Sunday night service the audience was in a buzz and many were the declaration.-- that such a sermon had never before been delivered in t he city. Mrs. Barr is one of the leading Friends ministers in Indiana Ye; lly Meeting and enjoys a state reputation not only as a minister, but as a publicspeaker. A GIGANTIC GAMBLE. Every Step of the I't-arl Kinhery Attended ly I'icUle Fortune. The world's most gigantic; gamble, pregnantly fruitful with chance in all variations and shadings, is unquestionably the Ceylon pearl fishery. Compared with it any state lottery pales to insignificance. From the taking of the first oyster to the draining of the last vatful of "matter" every step is attended by fickle fortune, and never is the interest of the people of Portugal or of Mexico keener over a drawing of a lottery, the tickets of which may have been sold at the very thresholds of the cathedrals, than is that of the natives of Ceylon and southern India over the daily results of a Manar fishery. Each bivalve is a lottery ticket. It may contain a gem worthy of place in a monarch's crown or be a seed pearl with a mercantile value of only a fewrupees. Perhaps one oyster In a hundred contains a pearl, and not more than one pearl in a hundred, be it known, has a value of importance. Nature furnishes the sea. pearling banks, oysters and all therein contained. The Ceylon administration conducts the undertaking and for its trouble and trifling outlay exacts a "rakeoff" of two-thirda of all that may be won from the deep. And mere man, the brown or black diver, receives for his daring and enterprise one oyster in everv three that he brings from the

ocean's depths, and his earnings must ; for the state anil defense in the rase be shared with boat owner, sailors, at- j of Ray Lamphere, under seven indicttendants and assistants almost without i monts for complicity in the Gunness

number. For size of "rake-off" there is no game of hazard in the world offering a parallel. The Ceylon government used to exact three out of every four oysters brought in, the current tribute of two out of three having become operative only n few years since. Frederic C. Fenfield in Century. THE MANTO. A ftarment That All Chilean Women Wear to Church. The Chilean women's most fetching garment, wrap, or what you will, is the manto. It is of some kind of fine black material and is worn thrown over the head. Sometimes a flap of it is drawn tightly across the forehead. After being thrown over the head the manto, by some means which I have as yet been unable to discern, is cinched in close about the neck. This cinching In at the neck makes a kind of hood around the face, and this hood is very skillfully manipulated by some of the women to cover up moles and other defects and to conceal the fact that their hair has not been carefully combed. From the shoulders the manto falls down In front to the toes and behind to the heels. It is held together In front partly by pins and partly by the hands of the wearer. It Is usually, but not always, worn over the street cos tunic. The wearing of mantos by all women, no matter of what class, on attend ing thurch Is obligatory. This providing for a uniform costume is quite rea sonable and is designed to eliminate such things as our Easter bonnet com petitions and allow the mind to forsake earthly and devote Itself to thing" spiritual. It also swells the attendance on many occasions, for some of the ladies, when they arise too late to have time to dress for early morning mass, merely throw on their mar.tos over their robes de nnit and. with the addition o? such head and font trimming as Is necessary to give the Impression of being fully dressed, trip demurely off to church, to ell outward seeming a though they had spent hours instead of minutes before their glasses. Los Angeles Times. Oret-lc Horlal Custom. It is the custom in certain parts of (ireece to carry bodies to the grave in coigns which allow the face to be visible. The fashion is said to have originated when the Turks dominated the land. At that time arms and ammunition.were being constantly distributed to the Greek populace In a way which baffied the Turkish officials until a coffin which was being escorted by an apparently mourning procession was found to contain not a body, but weapons. An order was then promulgated that bodies were to be borne to the grave only on open litters or in coffins without lids. Fattt: Gold Qua'.:ty Medal Flour is very highest La vi xix.
