May is the month in which all real estate taxes should be paid to avoid the ten per cent penalty which attaches commencing on the morning of June 1st. The law requires that at least one half should be paid by or be- fore May 31, to avoid the penalty, and the other half can be paid be- fore October 31. Unless it works a hardship it should all be paid this month, as in most cases, one will forget to pay the balance in October and and will still have the penalty to pay on the last half.

District Attorney ' Jerome's Move Against Gamblers. New York, May 17.—District Attor- aey Jerome is preparing to prosecute gamblers and poolroom proprietors under a section of the penal code which up to now has practically been & dead letter. He is being helped by Corporation Counsel Ellison. One of Mr. Jerome’s assistants will be ap- pointed a special corporation counsel to bring suits under the section in question. This section permits the charities - commissioner to institute civil suits against every one who wins or loses at play or by betting a sum of $25 or more in one day. Every such person must pay over not less than five times the amount of his gains or losses to the commissioner and the money must go to the poor. There is no exception in favor of race track betting. Mr. Jerome has in his possession a great mass of evidence collected at the time of the raids on poolrooms about six weeks ago and he also has the backing of the Dow- ling law to compel gamesters to tell him who their customers are and the amounts of such customers’ stakes. The sum involved is very large, it is believed. It is even suggested that if the.law is revived and rigorously en- forced enough money can be collected to establish a new hospital. 1t is said that Mr. Jerome’s determination to apply the section is owing to the un- favorable attitude of the legislature toward the anti-betting bills drafted by him early in the session. PASSING OF NOTED LAWYER Hummel’s Conviction Removes Ledd- ing Figure at Bar. New York, May 17.—With the decis- ion of Chief Justice Cullen of the court of appeals, in which he refused to grant Abraham H. Hummel a cer- tificate of reasonable doubt as to the validity of his conviction for conspi- racy in the Dodge-Morse divorce case, comes the passing of one of the noted figures among New York’s criminal lawyers. Hummel was indicted two years and three months ago for con- spiracy and subornation of perjury. His arrest and subsequent conviction was for a time the sensation of the day. His fight to escape jail has few equals in the criminal history of New York county. > Hummel, from an office boy, worked his way up till he became recognized as one of the foremost criminal and divorce lawyers of New York. The firm of Howe & Hummel was known even internationally and its income was large. Mr. Howe died several years ago, but the business continued under the old firm name until after the scandal in which Hummel became involved. Hummel was a master of advertising. His alliances with stage folk, as counsel for playwrights and divorce getter for scores of actresses, kept his name in print more than that of almost any lawyer in New York. RESCUERS FACE DEATH. New York Firemen Risk Lives to Save Comrades. New York, May 17.—Half a score of firemen risked their lives in saving six of their comrades who had been overcome by flames and smoke in the hold of a burning oil barge lying at the White Star line pier in the Hud- son river. All the rescued men were seriously burned. The six had gone into the hold when they thought the fire had been overcome and were cut- ting away a partition when a terrific burst of flame and smoke swept through the opening -and enveloped them. The men dropped unconscious and their comrades, braving the fire and choking smoke, went to their res- cue. One by one the unconscious fire- men were carried out and passed up through the hatchway to the open air. The rescuers themselves were nearly suffocated. Latest KILLS HIMSELF IN HOSPITAL Duluth Patient Breaks Glass and Cuts His Throat. Duluth, May 17.—Joseph Richards, forty years old, of Culver, Minn., com- mitted suicide in St. Mary’s hospital. Richards was taken to the hospital a week ago suffering from a general breakdown. The nurse that attended him brought him a glass of eggnog and left the glass with him. Richards broke the glass and cut his throat with the sharp, ragged edge of one of the pieces. The patient was found bleeding to death and it was too late to save him. Two Elevators Destroyed. Grand Forks, N. D., May 17.—Fire at McCanna destroyed-the St. An- thony and Dakota elevalor, the Impe- rial elevator, the Great Northern rail- road depot,-a house, barn and a boxcar. There were 16,000. hushels of wheat in the St. Anthony elevator. The oth- er was empty. The total loss-is $30,- 000. It is partially covered by insur- ance. GIRLS IN SUICIDE PACT Four lowa Young Women Take Poison at Same Hour. TWO DEAD AND TWO DYING Wictims Resided in Different Parts of the State, but It Is Asserted That the Agreement Was Made While At: tending School Together. Des Moines, May 17.—Bound by dn oath taken at school together that when one died all should die four Iowa girls attempted suicide the same day. Two of them are dead. The girls live in different parts of the state, but de- velopments show that all the attempts were made at the same hour, in pre- clsely the same way and for the same reason. The dead are Kate Farrell of Birmingham and Kittie Broell of Cox Creek. Elizabeth Fletcher of Bonaparte and Lillie Milburn of Dar- by are dying. All the girls tool strychnine at the same time. Il health is reported to have been the cause of the suicide in each case. Kate Farrell was the daughter of James Farrell, a well-to-do farmer residing near Birmingham. Kittie Broell took strychnine and then, to make death more certain, blew her head partly off with a shot- gun. Her sister had just died and she grieved over the fact until she became i1 ) o The most sensational case was that of Lilly Milburn, formerly Lilly Far- rell, who, it is claimed, ended her life because she had been forced to marry a man she did not love. She wed Har- ry Milburn because her parents ar- ranged the match when she was fif- teen years old. When she refused to live with her husband her parents threatened to force her to do so and she swallowed poison. Elizabeth Fletcher of Bonaparte was of the same age and in ill health. It is thought that the sister of Kitty Broell, who died a short time ago, was a member of the club and that when she killed herself the other members carried out their oath to take their lives when the first member died. ACCUSED OF LAND FRAUDS Twelve Indictments by Federal Grand Jury at Denver. Denver, May 17.—The federal grand jury has made a report of its first day’s work to Judge R. E. Lewis in the United States district court. In- dictments were returned for twelve men who are charged with land frauds and Judge Lewis ordered warrants is- sued for their immediate arrest. Most of the warrants must be served out of town and until {he arrests are made no names will be given for publica- tion. Bail was set at $2,500 in each instance. It is thought that it will be several dayvs before all the warrants can he served. Early Ending.of Strike at Kenosha, Wis.,"Expected. Kenosha, Wis., May 17.—There are hopes of an ending soon of the big Allen strike. Fifty of the men who had been out since Monday have re- turned to work under the assurance of police protection and it is thought that this break from the strikers’ ranks will result in the men deciding to re- turn to work in a body. There has been absolutely no rioting or show of force on the part of the strikers dur- ing the day and the men have peace- ably waited about the shops for devel- opments. WERE BOYHOOD FRIENDS. Moyer and Ex-Governor Steunenberg Both Lived in lowa. Boone. Ia, May 17.—It has been es- tablished here that Governor Steunen- berg,,who was assassinated in Idaho, and Charles Moyer, who may be placed on trial for his murder, were acquainted with each other in the year 1882 and following that time lived within a mile of each other, Steunenberg being a. student at Ames college and Moyer living near that in- stitution. Moyer was wont to ride a pony about the college grounds. Chicago After Both Conventions. Chicago, May 17.—A movement to bring to Chicago the nutional conven- tions of both the Republican and Democratic parties has been projected by the Chicago Commercial associa- tion. Through the convention com- mittee of the association the plan will be presented to the national commit- tees of both parties soon. lowan Suicides in Philadelphia. Philadelphia, May 17.—Frank A. Bretherton, aged forty, a salesman em- ployed by the Egar Packing company of Des Moines, committed suicide in the station of the Pennsylvania rail- road in this city by shooting himself in the temple. In his pocket was found a pathetic letter addressed to his wife, who is said to reside in Des Moines. Armed Officers at Bedside. Des Moines, May 17.—Armed offi- cers are stationed at the bedside of Ne- gro Barker, shot in a duel with Detec- tive Johnson. Twice Barker attempted to escape, but.was overpowered by at- tendants. Forty-two perforations were found in his intestines. Johmson, who was shot. in the head by a stepson of Barker, will recover. SHORTAGE OF MISSIONARIES Presbyterians Report Great Need in All Foreign Fields. Birmingham, Ala., May 17.—The re- port which the executive committes of the -Alliance of the Reformed Churches throughout the world hold- ing .the Presbyterian system will make to the general assembly of the Southern Presbyterian church has been made public. e report says that each year it becomes more appar- ent that the Christian church at home forthie evangelization of heathen peo- ple, nor can sufficient physicians be sent to supply the needs of the for- eign mission flelds. Three hundred thousand physicians are needed alone in China, says the report. The United Presbyterian church has recently been appealed to to send over 400 mission- arles for their field in Esypt and In- dia. Tqually great need is felt in all mission flelds. The report says the only possible way of meeting the need is the establishment of seminaries, colleges and hospitals for the rfllsiné up of a native ministry, native teach. ers and native physicians. As to home missions the report &ays that all the churches are awakening to a deeper sense of responsibility for the United States. The report offers a resolution for adoption which deprecates “the ef- fort in many places in our country by the Roman Catholic church to produce sympathy for the Catholics of France by charging persecution of the church against the French government. We believe that this charge is based upon false assumptions and that these ef- forts are revealing and developing a spirit contrary to free institutions and the true liberty of our land.” + Gets Seven Years in Prison. New York, May 17.—Anisla Louise de Massy, popularly known as the “Baroness de Magsy,” recently con- victed of having shot and killed Gus- tav Simon, a Broadway shirt waist manufacturer, was sentenced to serve seven years and five months' in the state’s prison for women at Auburn.

TODISSOLVECOMBINE Said President Is Determined to Prosccute Harriman, PROCEEDINGS ARE DELAYED Thief Executive Apprehensive Thaf Present Prosperity May Be Affected and He Wishes to Avoid Such a State of Affairs at This Time. Washington, May 17.—E. H. Harri- man must be criniinally prosecuted for his railroad deals. This is the fixed determination of President Roosevelt without reference to what action may be suggested by the department of justice or the inter- state commerce commission. He reached this conclusion a long time ago and nothing short of drastic pro- ceedings against the great magnate will satisfy him. The question of selecting a pysch- ological time for beginning proceed- ings against Mr. Harriman is all that has delayed the bringing of a suit. The president is apprehensive that prosperity may be affected by suits to dissolve all the combinations arranged by Harriman. He does not want such a condition to arise until nearer the close of his term. For this reason he has decided not to have proceedings instituted until late in the autumn or the winter. This understanding existed at the de- partment of justice and the interstate commerce commission. Consternation prevailed here when it became known that in some way the report submitted by Messrs. Kel- logg and Severance to the commission had become public. This arose from the fact that the president has not vet read or approved the report.

Witness Tells of the Shooting Up of Brownsville. ‘Washington, May 17.—F. A, H. San- born, manager of the Western Union Telegraph company at Brownsville, Tex., in the Brownsville investigation before the senate committee on mili- tary affairs, testified that he saw a negro soldier, carrying a gun, enter the post at about the time the firing ceased on the night of Aug. 13. On cross-examination he said the man was walking deliberately and did not appear to be hurrying from crime to escape detection. Sanborn was some- what confused as to incidents of the night because of fright and, although occupying a room directly across the road from the main gate of the post, many of the occurrences.over which there is no conflict of testimony what- ever escaped him. He was positive, however, that the man was a negro soldier and that he carried a gun. Youth Given Long Sentence.
