TEHBIBLE CRIME
AND A WONDERFUL ESCAPE
: FROM JUDGE LYNCH.
AN OLD GRCDQ 1 SSTTLKn, TBI HAITI
MISSW AND THX MUKSIRSK IN JAIL. .
, HAKKisoir, Ark., Oct. 30 Details
have just reached this place of the cold
blooded murder, at his home in Marion
oounty , the 22d inst , of Jas. Hamil
ton, late deputy collector of internal
revenue in the office of Henry M. Coop
er, at Little Koek.
I About two years ago Hamilton, while
aoting as j deputy oolleotor of internal
revenue, made a raid in Johnson coun
.ty on : a number of illieit distillers,
among; whim was a man named Mulli
gan, capturing one of the distillers and
managing to get here with their
:'orooked" : property. Mulligan was
one of these who escaped, and nothing
more was heard of him until a short
time ago, when he came to the home of
Hamilton, who was residing on a farm
in Marion county, and applied for work
on the farm, giving his name as Page.
Hamilton employed him end he worked
until last Friday night without attract
ing any particular attention. That
night he left Hamilton's and went to
the house of a neighbor, about half a
mile distent, to spend the night. After
ihe family had : retired for
the night,' Page, i (or Mul
ligan), left the ! house and
going bsek to Hamilton's, orept into
the latter's bed-room and as he lay
asleep placed a pistol to his head, blew
out his brains and fled. Mrs. Hamilton
gave the alarm, and there being some
men about the place, the neighbors were
soon aroused and in pursuit of the mur
derer. A party of citiiehs caught him
a short distanoe from the house, and
plaoing a rope around hjs neck, made
him confess; hia crime. (Just as they
were in the act of lynching him another
party of cit'zens came up and the lynch
ers, supposing them to be officers, left
their man and scattered. Mulligan,
taking: advantage of the excitement es
caped, but was recaptured next day and
taken to Yeilville, where he is now : in
jail. Hamilton had twice been elected
sheriff, and twice circuit olerk of Searcy
county. He was for four years deputy
collector of internal revenue and was a
candidate for sheriff at the reoent elec
tion. - - i ' .

St Locis, Opt 80. rAs tEe days pass
the amount stolen from Adams' express
company car on the St. Louis and San
Francisco road last Monday night grows
with alarming rapidity. At first it was
said to he $50,000, then $70,000, then
$80,000, and today, from tacts gleaned
from different shippers of money by the
Adams company Monday, the amount
is estimated to be at least $100,000 and
may aggregate $120,000.; Manager
Weir was seen early yostefdsy evening
aad he said to a reporter that tha best
defectives that oould ; bo found
were working up the; cise, but
that there were so many dues
as to who perpetrated the robbery that it
difficult to select one from among them.
Threads of evidence were numerous, but
they were gradually being woven to
gether and , he expected to hear from
sgen's in a day or two. Later in the
evening Weir received ad vioes which
caused his hasty depvture from the
city. Where he went no one on the
outside knows and the company's offi
cials refused to say. Mr. Pamsel, mana
ger of the St. Louis office, said that
important news had called him away,
and that they! had at last struck the
right clue. They are sure of their man
and he will soon be arrested. As to
the robbers' whereabouts , or identity
nothing could be learned.

one of the oldest mining engineers in

John Brodda, a floatman, was running
a ear upon the cage. The sudden hoist

was caught between the- cage and the
framework on the tide of the shaft and

Uyg-teae r Old Aft.
Dr. H. C. Wood, ia Annals Of Hygiene.
The teeth in old age are, of coureo,
lost, snd they should unlets under ex
ceptional circumstances, be replaced bj
rt) filial teeth, for the thorough obew
ing of food is even more neoesaary in
the old than in the young, beoause in
the old the digestive powers are apt to
fail.' With the best artificial teeth mas
tication is apt to be imperfectly per
formed hence the food of the aged
should be soft and readily comminuted,
and especially should it be of easy di
gestion. Very few old people need
stimulating diet; very many are injured
by an excess of nitrogenous food. The
kidneys, like all other org&ns, are fee
ble, and if meats and other rich foods
are used in excess, they greatly in
crease the strain upon; these organs.
Milk and milk products or preparations
of breadstuff cooked with milk should
form a very large proportion of the
food of the ordinary aged individual,
but individual peculiarities differ, so
much that personal medical ocunsel
should in all eases be taken, so that the
diet may be regulated to the needs cf
the individual case. Veiy many old
people are hurt by the use of food in
excessive quantity; but little exeroise
can be taken, all growth has osased,
and the bodily furnaces which
make heat are : able to
destroy but very little of food
fuel. Some little time since I had oc
oassion to lecture on this subject at tie
Philadelphia hospital, and an assertion
that I then made that most old people
are more comfortable eniov better
Uttelttr, aul prl..btj lZmr f UC
uso of wine, has met with every severe'
disapprobation at the hands of some of
the profession, whose strong sympathy
with the temperance movement domi
nates their judgment. No valid reasons
hare, however, so far as my judgment
goes, been brought forward to lead
me to ehai ge any opinion. In the over
fed American people the habitual use
of wine during youthful or middle age
and vigorous health is, we think, an
injury rather than a good; but when the
powers of life are failing, when diges
tion is weak and the; multitudinous
small ills of feebleness perplex and an
noy, one or two glasses of generous
wine at dinner aid digestion, quiet for
the time being muoh nervous irritation,
and in no way do harm. The sum total
of ruin wrought by alcohol m the world
is appalling, but it is
not lessened by
shutting lour eyes to the
good that wine
properly used may achieve. W hen in
iho aged there is a ditttnct failure of
vital power, and especially of digestive
power, the call for the habitual use of
alooholio liquors is, in my opinion, im
perative. The danger of the formation
of any evil habits when a man has
crossed the line of seventy ia so slight
that the most conscientious physioian
need pot hesitate in recommending the
daily use of alooholio beverages to his
patient.

H. J- Plonute d, in Good Housekeeping,
The "ideal sleeping-room" will face
the east. It will be not be less than
fifteen feet square, with windows on two
sides for light and vontilation ifor
further ventilation it will have an open
fire-place. The walls will be hard-
finished and tinted a oolox that will ba
restful to the eye. Tho woodwork will
be finished in its natiral color, paint not
being admitted. The! floor will be of
hard, polished wood, with small rus
for Qomfort that j are shakable
weekly. Everything that would
invite dust will be. strictly excluded
therefore the furniture will have no ex
tra carvings. Tho one hair mattress
will be of the best quality, mid in two
parts for convenience in turning and
airing, with a wo van-wire spring be-
W e w
neath. The bed clothing will be the
lightest, at the same time warmest, con
sisting of blankets and white spread.
All ex ti a adornments of lambrequins
snd fancy things of no use will not find
a plabe here. The curtains will be of
thin, washable material.
. The "coming woman" will plan to
have her bed set away from the wall, for
health's sake as well as convenience.
Modern "conveniences" will be let
alone, as fr as stationary wash basin
with hot and cold wate is conoerned, the
portable washstand being used instead
Bhe preferring to do a little extra work
to being slowly and genteelly poisoned.
Her bed will be well spead, opened the
first thing in the morning and the sun
shine and air invited in to do its part
toward airing aod cleansing the same,
and the making of the bed will be the
last of the morning duties.

her colonics and $25,000,000 by the
United States, leaving $10,000,000 as
the product of all other countries. 7 Of
the silver Great Britain. Austria and

The gold coinage of the world is now
eitimattd at $34250,000,000, and the
silver, including total circulation, $2,
755,000,000. The total value of gold
