PSORIA, HI., May 27.—George Pitch, the supposed assailant o! Mian Gerber, the Hilton school teacher, has been arretted here. He was loaded in a patrol wagon and driven to the iail, hi* limbs shaking with fear. The Tazewell county farmers who pursued the wretch drove him into the heavy timber in the Illinois river bottoms, and the theory is that some time daring the night be stole a boat and escaped to the Peoria county shore. Pitch was landed in the Pekin jail at o'clock last evening. There was no demonstration along the route, as it was not believed he would be sentdown until after dark. Miss Gerber went down on the same train that carried Pitch. The preliminary bearing will be held in Pekin As soon as Ditch was placed in jail here an attempt was made to interview him. lie made a strong denial of the crime, and stated that he spent laat night in Peoria. When pinned .down, however, he conlcl not state where, except that it was on the East Bluff. He could not give any description of the man with whom he lodged, couldn't give bis name nor even describe the house.

A CORNER IN WHEAT.

i!. R. Plll*barx Al(«nptlBK to Get Corner ml Mlnnvapolla. MINNS A POMS. May 27.—Those who are on the iaside in chamber of commerce circles in Minneapolis see the hand of 0. K. Pillsbury stuok deep in the wheat pit. By the time Mr. Pillsbury's July contract of wheat Is in he will lmc possession of more wheat thsn all the rest o! the dealers. To-day he bought three 'fourths of all the .wheat offered in the board. Many who have contracted for July delivery to Mr. Pillsbury will not be able to fulfill their contracts. They will le obliged to buy wheat of Mr. Pillsbury himself to deliver to Mr. Pillsbury. Those who are inimical in trade to Mr. Pillsbury say that he is trying togetall this wheat in a corner where he can put on it any figure he may desire. Others hold that he wants to get control of the wheat in order, among other things, to bold his miller friends to the rack, compelling them to pay a big price for that which be knows they must have.

KUled by his friend! A distressing accident occurred this morning.

Another case of "didn't know the revolver was loaded.*' The weapon was in the hands of John Davidson, a driver lor the ooal firm of Barns A Ray^d itn discharge resulted in the tragic death of George Becker this morning at f:15 o'clock. At this hour George Becker, who was in the employ of his father at the bottling works, at the corner of Eighth and Cherry streets was pnaaing Burns & Bay's coal office, No. 14 sooth Eighth street, on his way to his work when he noticed John Davidson and Henry Dale sitting in the offise. He stepped into the office and exchanged a friendly greeting as the boys were all well acquainted, as had been bis custom for some time past, and soon he and Davidson became engaged in a scuffle. A thirty-two calibre doable action Smith & Wesson revolver was laying in a pigeon hole of the desk standing on the west aide oflthe office, which, until last night, had not been loaded.

It seems that last night Henry Dale who is employed in the office of Messrs. Barnes Ray, filled four of the chambers and placed the weapon back in its place in the desk. Daring the scaffle Davidson, not knowing that the weapon had been loaded picked it up and aimed it squarely at Becker's head at the same time pulling the trigger, aloud report startled the trio in the room and the ball went cracking through Becker's skull about an inch over the right eye, passing clear through Che brain and came ont at the back of the head. The boy dropped to the floor like a log. Death was instantaneous. As soon as the shot was fired Davidson ran out into the street screaming at the top of his voice, followed by Dale and several gentlemen who happened to be passing ran to the south side of the building and kicked in the side door to the office, but by the time they reached Becker he showed ecaroely any signs of life. Davidson was soon arrested or Officer Smith and taken into Fleming livery stable where the patrol wagon was telephoned for.

While waiting for the wagon Davidson, who was frightened nearly out ef his senses aFttre horrible deed he had to rashly committed, could scarcely speak. He stated to a Naws reporter, however that himself and Becker were the very best of friends and always had been. That an unpleasant word had never Oftentimes oet&re engage* friendly scuffles.

BEAUTY'S FAILUR8.

Wmw Haadaomo Womtm Attala Uy of Any Kind. Of the beautiful women I have known,, but few have attained superiority of any kind, says writer in Ladies' Home Journal In marriage they have frequently made failure* why, I do not know, unless the poc* session ot great loveliness is incompatible with the poes assign of as equal amount of good judgment. So much is expected by the woman accustomed to admiration, that she plays and palters with her late till the erooked stink is ail that is left her. This we see exAmplified again and again. While the earnest, lofty, sweet-smiling woman of the pale hair and doubtful line of nose, has, perhaps, one true lover whose worth die has time to recognize, aa acknowledged beauty will find herself surrounded by a crowd of showy egotists whose admiration so dazes and bewilders her that she is sometimes tempted to bestow herself upon the most importunate one in order to end the unseemly straggle.

Then the incentive to education, and to the cultivation of one's special powers is lacking. Forgetting that the triumphs which have made a holiday of youth must lessen with the years, many a fair one neglects that training of the mind which gives to her who is poor in all else, an endless storehouse ef wealth from which she can hope to produce treasures for her own delectation and that of those about her. long after the fitful bloom upon her handsome sister's oheek has faded with tha roses of departed summer.

Though the world can show instances here and there of women in whose dazzling glances crenius and beauty struggle for equal recognition, are they not the exception proving the rule? To win without effort and yet to ignore these victories for the sake of the more lasting and honorable ones which follow the attainment of exoellenoe In any one thing, means character, and character added to loveliness gives us those rare specimens of womanly perfection which assure us that poetry and art are not solely in the minds of men, but exist here and there in an embodied form for the encouragement and delight of struggling human nature.

TEA IN TIBET.

Tha POaad* Port*** Carry Ortur 190 Strapped to Their WIOIM.

The packages of tea, each about fem* feet long, six inohes broad, and three to four thick, and weighing from seventeen to twenty-three pounds, are placed horizontally one above the other, the upper ones projecting so as to oome over the porter's head, says Dint Bookhill in the Century. They are held tightly together by oolr ropes and little bamboo stakes straps, also of fastened to the top of the load helps to balance the huge structure, which requires more knack than strength to oarry, for its weight must bear on all the back and only slightly on the shoulders. In their hands the porters oarry a short crutch which they place under the load when they wish to rest without removing it from their backs.

porters'in any who carry such weights as Ta-chou tosHJOolies and strange as It may appear, they are not verj muscular, and over hall of them are oonfirmed opium smokers.

THE TROGDON MOMER TRIAL

THK CMS1R6 AID®**** I* THS

Bobinsoa finished his speech to the jury having spoken for hours and assailed every point in tb* evidence that tended to the defense of the prisoner. After he Sew his remarks to a close Sam R. Fawiill for the defense spoke for an hour and a half and pot mors earnestness into his talk than usual. The case is in grave doubt fear the de&mss and they are all of the chances that can poesibly be made. In the former trial the defendants submitted the case without argument but tills time they are arguing loud and long, not longer than the state, however. At the dose of Hamili's arguments court adjourned txntil 9 o'clock this morn in*. ...

This moving the sf^iymts were begun by John is. Lawfm«i~ the defense who spoke about two bjiluv. He called the attention of the jury to the fact that Trogdon had worked faithfully with his horses, both of which were lame, on the road and had fired the fatal shot as the last extremity to escape being brained by Sanders. At the dose of hts eloquent address he entreated the jury to lift the cloud of sorrow which had been hovering around the little home for the past ten months, and let the sunshine of hope once more stream through and fall on tbe depressed little family of two. He told the jurors now joyfully their wives would receive them on their return to their homes when they explained that they had assisted in giving this young man his liberty and restoring bim tofthoee whomjbe Jpved even better than himself. Mr. Lamb's address was beautiful and was listened to intently by all in the court room. Trogdon, his wile, and his sister were all moved to team when Mr. Lamb referred to the cloud of sorrow which had surrounded their home. At the end of the address a short recess was taken and Judge S. B. Davis started on the closing arguments for the state. He objected to Trogdon who is 27 years of age, being called a boy. He stated to tbe jury that the relatives of the defendant dia not feel any worse over this matter than the widow of Hayes Sanders, who was sitting near at hand sobbing as though her heart would break. Continuing he told the jury that it was sworn to try this case on the facts. No matter of family or sorrow was to enter into it the horses of which the defendants spoke in such a feeling manner were not to IM considered in the case. It was to be stripped bare of all facts not pertaining to the case and be tried on its merits. He also informed the jury that it was impanneled for the purpose of punishing crime and was expected to do so. The defendants in their remarks had referred to the attorneys for the prosecution as paid attorneys, and the money received by them for their services as blood money. Mr. mnnfis. spoke for

WHALE 'ONE SCARCE.

Win th* Coming W«»im JXemr Whal* boa*, or What? ^Arctic whalebonemade a remarlcabU advance last week to $5,25 a pound foj ehoioe quality. This is the highest prioe remembered by the trade full} 10,000 pounds were sold at #4. 70 tat #5.00a pound, and the commoner kind* such as Japan sea and Northwestern, brought |4.15 to $4.35 a pound. Al with all whale products, this article ll yearly diminishing in supply, and unless commerce permits a long breedln| rest, it is too much to Imagine that an} gigantic enterprise can oome with th« magic aid of scientific economy ant manage to organize some sort of whale preserve or maritime raooh at I feasible point in the ocean—our nobl aquatic animal must soon practically disappear like the buffalo of tho prairie.

In late years a few monied spoon* latere have continued to get oontrol ol the bulk of the "catch," and in tht condition of matters all possible cheapness is wiped out The stimulating whips of enthusiastic jockeys and thosf of stylish family and road turnouts, thi symmetry of comfortable oorsets, o: bridal or other expensive waists, miui hereafter pay extra tribute to the ex* travagant drain that has been going on in whalebone for. the part sixty years.

There are many useful substitutes, but none seem to satisfactorily fill tht place for best purposes as pure Green' land baleen, or as a witty dressmaker remarks: "Nothing else has snob staying excellence."

Worth and a host of foreign and American gown constructors of renown, are extremely particular in selecting this material, and cannot be induced to experiment with the best imitations In fact, no first-class worker, man ot woman, would attempt to turn out bridal, reception or ball gown that had not an incorporation of genuine whale bone where needed.

The best whalebone is*obtained from the Greenland or right whale. There are about throe hundred thin plates oi it in tho mouth of a full grown animal, varying from ten to fifteen feet id length. These are arranged transversely in rows and fringed at tht edges with a thready substance, which enables the whale to seoure the peouliai suction food on which it subsists.

Dxnonr, May 87.—Foreign missions were discussed this morning by the preebyterian assembly after routine business was transacted, being followed by a favorable report of the special committee on religious exhibit for the World's fair, which recommended the scope of work to be covered and departments to be organised. It was stated that a gentleman had already offered to supply fnnds for such exhibit, supposedly Cyrus H. McOormack, of Chicago. It was decided to appoint a committee of nine to have charge of the proposed exhibit, the expanses to be met by individual contributions. The committee on increase of the ministers made report embodying plans for receivlngministere from other churches, but Clerk Roberts claimed that tho rec* ommendstions were unconstitutional. A heated discussion that followed was cut short by the reference of the report to the committee on church policy.

Rev. H. C. Hayden, of Cleveland, reported that nearly $1,000,000 had been expended for the foreign mission filed lsstyear and 2,875 oommunicints had been added to the church as a result, making the total number to date 28,494. JP. W. Laae, of Brasil, thought the outlook in that country was encouraging and like reports were received from workers in Cnins, Syria and India.

WASHINGTON, May 27.—Lieutenant loriven, commissioned to the republics of Central America in the interest of the World's ColnmWm Exposition, reports from Costa Rica that the minister of foreign relationp. ronEisequell Gutterre*, stated that Uoeta Rica would do all in her power to aid the exposition. Hie minister said that Costa Rica would arange to erect her own building, and that an architect would be sent from San Jcee to Chicago to superintend the work. The minister also promised that he would send the national museum, or such part of it as was considered worthy of being sent This in itself assures for Costa Rico a remarkable display, for in tliis museum is a collection of antiquities, called the "trago collection,M which is said to be finer than anything south of the.Rio Grande.
