BODY OF WOMAN FOUIIDJJ BLOOD Columbus, Ind., Again Shaken By a Murder Mystery.

ONE MAN UNDER ARREST. THOUGHT JOHN UNDERWOOD WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR CRIME AS CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE IS AGAINST HIM. Columbus, Ind., July 20. In a pool Of blood, the head bent to the knees, body of Carrie Hayden Percifleld, divorced wife of Curtlss Percifleld, was found last night on the levee west of the Second street bridge. John Underwood, a former motorman of Columbus, who Is commonly known as "Doc" is under arrest charged with her murder. He was found intoxicated at his home. His collar was saturated with "blood as were his coat, trousers and euspenders, which bore the marks of bloody fingers.. John Cochrane who chanced to walk along the road, saw a figure robed In white lying on the grass, and, believing that some one was injured, ran to tho city water works to notify Head Engineer Tooley and Fireman Abrara Bond. Bond accompanied Cochrane to the scene of the crime and found the dead woman. The city officers and Coroner J. W. Benham were at once hotlfied and they began work on the case. An autopsy was held at the fcnorgue was held, but no marks of violence were found on the body. Sufferer From Consumption. Yesterday Dr. Benham was called to Ihe Hayden home by Mrs. Percifleld. who was 111 of consumption. He said that she was so weak after the examination that she was compelled to retire. Dr. Benham saw her on the street Sunday afternoon and said he was surprised to see that she had gained so much strength in the last twelve hours. Jacob Boswell and his wife, who reBide about 20O yards from where the body was found. Bay they heard a woman scream: "Oh Doc, don't!" The flagman at the West Second street crossing, who is acquainted with Underwood, declares he saw him running out of the woods. He spoke to him, but he says, Underwood did not how hi3 clothing came to be covered with blood. Underwood is married. A few months ago his wife whipped a woman with whom. she charged he had been spending considerable of his time. ZANZIBAR. Its Frftsnnt CIotb Faresta and Its Malodorous City Streets. It Is difficult to describe in fitting language the clove gardens of Zanzibar. The "spicy breezes" which are said to "blow soft o'er Ceylon's Isle" blow with equal softness and perhaps do less splciness through Zanzibar's beautiful clove forests. The whole island abounds In richest vegetation, but the clove forests are its real beauty spots. And what a grateful change their fragrant shade from the oriental odors and genuinely bad smells of the stuffy streets of the old town itself! For Zanzibar is not like an American city in the width of Its streets and the architecture of its buildings. There is scarcely a thoroughfare In the whole place wide enough to permit two vehicles to pass, and the system of sanitation Is almost as primitive as that of the garden of Eden; hence some of the smells. Fortunately the clove forests are not far away. Zanzibar has no . docks or wharfs. All goods are landed or shipped by means of lighters. The tidal rise 13 about fourteen feet and the fall necessarily the same. Vast stretches of beach are thus left bare at low water; hence more smells. But, witto all its drawbacks, Zanzibar is not particularly unhealthy. It Is hot, vigorously, viciously hot, but still the people, the white people, manage to live there In comparative comfort and In spare hours play golf, tennis and. some times even football. B. Verne Richard son In American Syren and Shipping. Tit Splnatnar Male. Samuel Crompton, a boy of sixteen, copied the best features of the spinning machine invented by nargreaves and Arkwright, added to them some of his own and, after threef months of anxious and secret experimenting, produced the first spinning mule, so called because It was a kind of hybrid between Hargraes' jenny and Arkwright' water frame. The raw apprentice lad i was, however, no match In cunning f o? ' the cotton lords, who soon found out the secret of his new machine and shamelessly robbed him of the fruits of his ingenuity. Many years afterward, It Is true, they used their influence to secure for him a parliament grant of 5,000, but he was then a broken hearted and disappointed man, to whom the money came too late to be of any real service.

WORK SUCCESSFUL

Hundreds of Poor Aliens Given Work Over the Country By New Bureau. RELIEVES CONGESTION. Washington, July 20. Cold figures Ehow in a striking manner the effective work of the division of information of the bureau of immigration and naturalization in diverting hundreds of poor aliens from the crowded centers of the country to fertile fields and other places where there is a big demand for that class of labor. From the first of February last to the close of June nearly 1,000 aliens and others have been sent, in response to applications, to various parts of the country. Twenty-six nationalities are represented in this distribution and the employment secured was principally farmwork. KNOWLLuo- AMD CULTURE. The Two Do Not NeccMarlly Walk Hand In Hand. High marks in examinations depend upon a trained memory and a power of acquiring irrelevant Information. Culture, on the contrary, is a sympathetic assimilation of the best in the realm of thought and achievement. Culture Is a slower process and a deeper, and its reward strikes further in. Assimilation of the best that has been thought and accomplished affects not merely the brain, but the character the whole spirit of a man. Culture implies a soil plowed and fertilized, where whatever seed falls has the better chance for growth. Information even in vast quantities, so long as it remains mere information, used for purposes of passing examinations, need not affect the manners nor the morals of a man; both may remain hopelessly lax in an encyclopedian mine of facts. But culture affects primarily the manners and the morals. A cultured gentleman has external methods of getting on with his kind; he has the true sense of relationship, the feeling that all he can learn to feel or to be is not for himself, but for service; he knows himself in a network of human inter-relations. In the end the test of knowledge is not examination marks; it Is living. Harper's Weekly. - " JW WOMANJS DEAD. Met Injury When Horse Scared at Taggart's Auto. Columbus, Ind., July 20.

CUPID DEFEATED; HIS BOW BROKEN

Board of Education Rules Against Little Fellow. Tamaqua, Pa., July 20. The board of education of this city has ruled against Cupid. When the public school is opened for the fall term it will Le found that the male teachers are married and the women teachers are maidens who have promised not to wed in the term for which tbey have been appointed. It is the latest iiea to prevent the confusion that has been an annual thorn in the side of the board, because so many pretty teachers sentin their resignations inorder to marry male teachers. The board believes it ha solved the problem. The women teachers must have signed antimarriage contracts. DANCINU HLOftiMS. The Ansa al rnll of Ihr "Salnta" of Kchlero.ch. On every succeeding Wbitsun Tuesday from time injUH-moria! 10.0O t 20.000 pilgrims of Uu'u xes and of every age and condition of life dance for four or five hours at Ik-hternach, iu the grand duchy of Luxemburg, to an unmistakable polka tune and an apparently nonsoualcal refrain. The central figure of this great Echternach "jpringrnzos!lon" is St. Willlbrord. who migrated from Northumberland to the frontiers of the Rlack forest twelv centuries ago. Rmporar and kings have In vain forbidden the saints' of Echternach to Indulge In their annual carnival. With the peasantry of Hat Luxemburg and Eiffel the "sprlugprozesslon is as popular today aa it was In 1131. when King Lothaire came to pray at St. Wlllibrord'a tomb. The simple intndj ed dwellers on the banks of the Sure I and the Moselle are firmly convinced I that their beet hope of freedom from i nervous diseases In this world and eter nal salvation in the next lies In this mystic dance of five steps forward and two backward, by which, after three hours' Indescribable toil, they cover tho two or three miles intervening between the starting point, at which the pilgrims receive the episcopal blessing and the goal at the steps of St. Willibrord's shrine.
