hi in at the start: "You are incom
plete. I have made that other part
of von. lint I do not remember
where I put it. You will have to
limit for it."
I have met many men who went
ulxuit for years in this I'syehe hunt,
muttering to the women they met,
"Where do you supiose the rther

President Roosevelt an Accident
ia, liian. H I'afkliurM. In Sun.Uy Srrnn.it.
If ever there was such a thine as
mi uccident the promotion of the
Chief Executive to his iiiciimlM-iicy
of the ollice is an instance of it.
Aeeidentallv made Vice I'rosi
dent by the enmity of a jealous
eompatriot, w hat jealousy initiated
the cnuy malignity of n t'zolgos
coosutuatcd, and the thing was
done. He happened lo Is- elose to
the pool Ilcthcsda at t lie moving of
the waters and the irresponsible
I'ole rolled linn in. There was a
providence in it, doubtless, but
only in the sense in which there is
a providence in all accidents.
The Exploding lioy,
hutt.Uy SrtiiM.1 Tour.
A father or mother is an en
gitn-cr. The Isiy is boiler hikI en
gine all in one. Shut off the steam
lit all points of outlet, and some
thing has pit to give way. Of
course nolssly wants either to
waste slt-utu, by letting it ofl' into
the air, or to have an explosion.
The other thing to do is to turn it
into the cylinders, mid let it run
the. engine. Henry Ward llcccher
tells how his lather used to pi
a outline; w ith his boys. They
dimls-d the trees, and shtsik down
the chestnuts, and then picked the
ground clean of tlieiu. Mr. llcccher
nays: "Thus we spent our forces,
mid I was a better Isiy for a week
after one of those nulling expedi
tions. The devil did not tempt
me half so much then as at other
times. Hut w hen, for any cause, 1
was shut up, no that 1 could not go
out, and when I moped, the devil
got big in me, and I went into ub
normal mischiefs, not mischiefs of
very great magnitude, but mis
chiefs just large enough to procure
me a whipping, and make mc un
happy." Now, whipping an ex
ploded boiler is a doubtful way of
repairing it. All engineer who
gives no vent to the gathering
steam is liable to lie whipped by
the law, if not by his conscience.
Excluding the Ideal.
SumlaT Hrliiitil Tlmrrt.
It is wonderful how jiersisteutly
and how stubbornly many persons
will cling to an ideal less life. The
worst oftVuse you ran coin in it is to
offer to clean their sky -w indow s for
them. They seem positively to
love darkness rather than light.
1 igniics is not offered to us by his
tory as being exactly a model of
manners to royalty, tor, when asK
ed by a kingly Alexander what
gift he would receive of him, he
only replied, "That you may get
out of my sunlight." Hut when
you have to choose between even
Alexander and sunlight, there is
noincthiiig to be said for the latter.
In the rase Is-fore us there is no
such excuse. The mind seems to
say: Leave me to a life from which
the bright firmament uf the ideal is
excluded. Let me "walk on still
ill darkness," whatever light In
found alsmt inc. tio they are like
1'lato's men in the cave. Willi
faces toward tho gloom, they are
conscious only of the reflected
shadows cast by the glories of a
world of life which they never see.
Their stolid idcredulity will quench
the torch of your enthusiasm before
it will be kindled by it. In answer
to the cry of the discipline, "We
have seen the Lord," they will lay
down conditions before their entry
into the promised land of the ideal,
into the world of spiritual reality,
Into the realization of the unseen,
which destroy its potency to the
heart, "Kxcept I see, I will not
beleive."

these days is tremendous. Almost
every man, woman and child in the
country seems to have a grievance
against the department now that
the game is oh-ii. One woman has
lost in the mails and another a

the country objects to the way his

The most pathetic appeal of all
came yesterday from a New York

J, 1. Kerr, who has returned
from a inci ting of the penitentiary

rectors witnessed 1111 unusual sight
at the prison. Young It ley of
K.iyclleville, who killed a hotel
clerk ut that place, had just la-en
taken to prison when Die visitors
were making their regular inspec
tion. The prisoner, w ho is of a
wealthy and well known family,
took his check book w ith him. for
he has something like tio.ntm in
his own name. The warden re
garded the book as superfluous, nnd
told the young man so, but the
mutter was finally compromised by
a dessit of forty or fifty dollars
with the prison oflicials, w ho said
that this young prisoner could pur
chase a little fruit occasionally, but
that he would have to eat at Hie
same table and the same food that
was giveu the other prisoners w ho,
while they had Is-en less fortunate
in the accumulation of the goods of
this world, had now been brought
to the same level by being in the

The crime, charged ns murder,
occurred alsmt I o'clock this morn

two months as the representative
of the Mutual Aid lusutatiee Com

Kiss, (iil aril. John Allen, one
of the party, was shot and his con
dit ion is such that he hits not Istii
placed in jail.
Two causes are assigned by the
public and tumor for the killing.
One of these is that Jones had Ih cii
having uegio women as occupants
of his room and that the crowd
wanted to stop this: another that it
was thought (hat Jones was acting
as 1. detective and had caught on
to some gambling rooms reported
tols' iu iH'ration in the building
in which lie roomed, and that the
purpose of the crowd in cither case
was to force him to leave town.
The tragedy occurred in the
I'ryar building, above the Vienna
bakery, 011 fioldslioro street, just
oil' of Nash, the main .street of the
town. Just Is fori' I o'clock a
emwd of men went up into the
building and deiiiaiuled admittance
to Jones' room, pounding 011 the
door. Jones was iu IhmI and re
fused to open the door. The crowd!
broke dow 11 the door and rtisheil
iu. Shots were heard, then a pause,
and more shots and a voice crying
out; "Oh, (iod, I am shot, some
body help me!"
Humor has it thai Jones, expect
iug trouble, had armed himself
with it shotgun iiml had it near the
head of his In-iI; that when the
crowd broke in he shot, the loail
going into the wall, and that al
this parties in the crowd shot with
pistols, killing Jones and seriously
wounding Allen, otic of the party.
After the shooting the crowd
scattered, some, it is said, leaving
by w indows and going down a lad
der beyond a tin roof, while others
went out the ft out. John Allen,
who was bleeding freely from a
wound through the shoulder, ran
out, and accompanied by two of
parly, one of whom is said lo he
J. H. Piver, was taken to the Wil
son Sanitarium, where his wound
was dressed.
Jones was not killed at once, but
diedalNi.it 7 'W o'clock this 11101 n
iug. The fatal ball entered his
body ulMiut three inches below the
navel. When ollicers entered his
room after the shooting he was
found standing in his night clothes.
Mayor Herring ipieslioned him and
he said that he had Is-en uslccp,
that a crowd rushed into his room,
pon need 011 him and Is-at him.
That he struggled out of lied ami
got his shotgun, fired it, but it
went wide of the mark. He was
very weak when seen and failing
from loss of bluish He asked that
his watch be sent to his brother at
Little Hock. At the uut.ipsy held
by lr. Allert Anderson it was
found that the bullet had made
three perforations in the bowels
and had landed iu Hie backbone.

The coroner's jury rendered the
following verdict:

Joke That Cost a Life.

Mr. S. L. Svv ieegood, w ho was in
the collision that occurred la-lwecii
the Hamilton and Saginaw last
week, tells the Sun that he saw
one too conliiling individual, who
had listened seriously to a joke,
drow n when he might have lived.
The man in question was a ver
liable landlubber and on Imai'ding
the Hamilton 1 the boat on which
Mr. Swicegood had taken passage 1,
asked a friend how to wear a life
preserver iu case of necessity. The
friend jokingly told him that il
should be strapped mound the
ankles.
When the collision lift ween the
boats occui ed the iiupiii iug gentle
man was one of the hot to grab 1.
life preserver. .Securing it lirmly
around his ankles he jumped over
board and when next seen his feet
were limiting about the water. II
was evident that he wits struggling
to reverse his position but the life
preserver attached to his pedal
extremity kept his head under the
water. His Nwly had not Ihtii re
