He was beaten and stoned and his car practically dismantied. The police are giving fight with the mob. Yesterday was one of riots in ithe West End of the city, and police and street car company officials are fear- ful of what the night will bring in the way of violence. A serious disturbance, in which many participated, broke out about noon, when an attempt was made to take a car out of the barns, manned by strike breakers. Police and spec- ial officers had a hard fight with the mob before succeeding in dispersing it. THIS FROM BURSLEY. Kansas City, Sept. 10. Dear Friend: Just thought I’d drop you a line that you’d know I'm ~ still alive, but that’s about all. This is some village. Every other one you meet is black. I think there are about five million people in this town. In three blocks on Broadway tonight I met 30,000. The only way I could get along was close behind a big cop. He stopped and asked me what I was following him for. Yesterday I was run over by an auto, and a suffraget kicked me in the shins for nothing, just pure meanmness. A delegate from Montana got to fooling with a little iron box on a light pole. Pretty soon a big bell rang and the fire department came down there and a big cop wanted to pinch us all. I can’t find anything to eat that I like, and it is so darned hot I can’t sleep. Otherwise I'm having a fairly good time. Missouri and Kansas may be all right but little old Bemidji looks pretty good to pa. Your friend, Fred Bursley. 0dd Fellows Gather.

Bring h ttern dresunaling c:?:bl::;:. yord be welcom .fl’leary-Buwser Go, BATILE ANNIVERSARY years ago today the national capital was anxiously awaiting news of the outcome of the great battle that was being fought by the Union and Con- federate armies at South Mountain. less than fifty miles distant from ‘Washington. This battle was really the decisive one of the Maryland campaign and led to the great fight at Antietam ‘three days later. South Mountain is a spur of the Blue Ridge range, extending north of the Potomac to Harper’s Ferry. There are two passes through the mountains, one known as Turner’s gap and the other as Crampton’s gap. The first named affords a passage from Frederick to Williamsport, while Crampton’s gap, a few miles to the south, gives a similar opening to Harper’s Ferry. Y General Lee, after the vietory at Bull Run on August 30, had crossed the Potomac and invaded Maryland. A few days later he divided his fore- es,” sending “Stonewall” Jackson to capture Harper’s Ferry. To relieve Harper’s Ferry, Gen. McClellan or- dered Gen. Franklin through Cramp- ton’s gap. The remainder of the Federal army was to pass through Turner’s gap and fall upon Gen. Lee’s main column. Gen. D. H. Hill, of the Confeder- ates forces, succeeded in reaching Turner’s gap before the Federals. The Confederate general, McLaws, likewise succeeded in getting into po- sition at Crampton’s gap. The bat- tles of the 14th were fought to wrest these positions from the Confeder- ates. As Gen. Lee’s object in occupy- ing and holding these positions to de- lay the Federal advance until the cap- ture of Harper’s Ferry and the con- centration of his forces, they were held tenaciously. Gen. Hill, rein- forced by Longstreet’s corps, succeed- ed in holding Turner’s gap until the day was ended. Gen. Franklin forced Crampton’s gap late in the afternoon, but not soon euough to relieve Har- per’s Ferry. This important point fell into the hands of the Confeder- ates and Gen. Lee was enabled to unite his forces for the battle of An- tistam. NEW JEWISH YEAR. New York, Sept. 14.—The setting of the sun last evening ushered in the Jewish new year 5673. The festival is ome of the most important of the Jewish calendar and is sedulously ob- served by the reformed and orthodox alike. The orthodox carry the ob- servance over two days, during which time they cease all work. The re- form Jews celebrate only one day. There are more than sixty Jewish churches in Greater New York, but even this large number is insufficient to accommodate the large number of worshippers on important feast or fast days. This lack of adequate ac- commodation is not to be wondered at, in view of the fact that nearly 1,000,000, or considerably more than half of the total number of Jews in America reside in this city. For the present holiday season the Kehillah, or Jewish Community of New York, has made arrangements to use a number of provisional syna- gogues. The organization has also made arrangements for the holding of services for the benefit of the Jew- ish inmates of the tuberculosis camp at Westfield, at the emigrant station at Ellis Island and in various other public institutions. Passenger Experts in Session. Seattle, Wash., Sept. 14.—Several hundred representatives of the pas- sengers departments of the leading railroads of the United States and Canada gathered in Seattle today for the fifty-seventh annual convention of the American Association of Gen- eral Passenger and Ticket Agents, The convention will be in session two days. In addition to discussing nu- merous technical matters the mem- bers will listen to addresses by Presi- dent Sproule of the Southern Pacifie and several other prominent railroad executive officials. Indications point to the election of R. H. Wallace, of the Erie railroad, to succeed C. A. Cairns, of the Chicago and North- Wwestern, as president of the associa- tion. SPUR ITEMS.

C., Sept. 14.—Fifty | | 'PROSPERITY cAME IN JUMPS| ALLENS To Good Story From Which Private John Allen Drew a Rule to Gulde His Conduct. | Private John-Allen, during his long wervice as representative of Mississip- ! in congress, was importuned on one occasion to make an after-dinner speech at a banquet at which he was to be a guest. “No!” sald the “private,” “I' will make a before-dinner speech but nons after dinner.” ‘When reminded that & before-din- ner speech was quite out of the or- dinary, and was asked for his rea- son for desiring to make his speech before dinner, he told the following story: “There was a mne'er-do-well that lived near Tupelo, my home town, some years ago named Bill Jones. Bill had a brother Bob, who had gone to Texas quite & while before, and reports sald that he was enjoying a fair share of worldly prosperity. When a Texan, from the town in which Bob had located, came to Tupelo, he looked up Bob, who said to him: “Tell Bob that I have a large fam. ily, and things are against me some: how, and if he can give me a little assistance it will be greatly appre- clated.” He continued on tkis strain for gome time so that the Texan to re lieve the situation proposed that they have a drink. The drink was dis. posed of, and Bill was cheered up con. siderably; began to tell what a good crop he would have this year, etc, Another drink was taken with a like result, and after about the fourth had been disposed of, he slapped the Tex- an on the back and said: “When you see Bob, you tell , him if he or any of his friends need:any money, just draw on me for it, and they will get it.” OLD FRIENDS ARE WITH: US The Wild Man of the Woods andithe Man Who Won't Give a Tip Both Here. 01d friends are returning with sum. mer. The wild man, who now emerges from a cave in Connecticut and now prefers the Maine woods with a vil. lage near by where he can frighten school children, i8 reported as caught In Tarrytown, N. Y., but he is prob- ably an imposter, for he gave hig name and admitted that he was hun. gry. The real wild man is nameless, and in trackless solitudes or visiting a settlement is cheerfully omnivorous, and skillful in obtaining food from na. ture and from man. And again there is the formation of a National Anti-Tipping associa tion. We read a few days ago of a Londoner who in one year traveled considerably over 100 miles to find barbers’ shops where his “unbending attitude on the tip question” was une known and thus spent about $30 on bus and cab fares. He soon exhaust ed London and the suburbs, and now, unable to shave himself, grows a beard. These anti-tipping associations la- bor in vain, for there are always fook ish men and women, who, not sure of themselves and wishing to impress others, tip extravagantly.—Philip Hale in Boston Herald. Man of His Word. “Central,” he said patiently, “you have given me the wrong number seven times now. If you do it again I shall report you, I want Weehau- ken 7-50 V.’ s There was a whirring, a clicking, then a clicking whirring. “Hello,” he sald, “is this you, Dolly ?” “Yes,” answered a sweet voice, put up to it, of course, by its fair owner. “This 18 Lawrence Seelingbass. I called up to tell you that if'you don’t marry me I'll go to Africa and be shot by lons.” “I'll marry you, foolish boy. You've never asked me before, you know.” “What! Who is this?” “Dolly Dartingham.” He hung up the receiver as if he had been shot. Central had given him the wrong connection again! On his way to the jeweler's to buy Dolly Dartingham a diamond soli- taire he stepped in at the Beestone telephone office to report the opera- tor, for in all things Lawrence Seel- ingbass was a man of his word.—Puile edelphia Evening Times. Improved Gas Light. According to the Scientific Amerl- can, experiments are at present in pro- gress in Paris as the result of which it is hoped to secure an increased light efficiency from incandescent gas burners. Under present conditions the gas pressure in the mains is suf- ficient to draw a certain amount of air into the burner, where it becomes mix- ed with the gas, causing the character~ istic blue flame. But the amount of thus drawn into the flame is only about three times that of the gas, whereas, for the best effect, the ration ghould be five to one. It has been found that by compressing the gas in the mains the desirable ratio of air can be caused to enter the flame. One of the boulevards in Paris has lamps working on this system, and the re- sults are exceedingly satisfactory. Has Learned Difficult Language. Mrs. H. J. Camp, the first white woman who ever made a permanent missionary home in Central Arabia, 1s now engaged in special charitable work in Maine. Mrs. Camp speaks and reads Arabic like & native. Dependent on Wood Pulp. - Mr. Frank Lloyd, at the annual din- uer of the British Wood Pulp assooia- tion, spoke of the serious effect-upon the industry of the drought in Scan- dinavia, and, referring to the rapid development of the industry, pointed out how dependent paper makers now were upon wood pulp. If they had to rely on straw, etc., as was the case only. about twenty-five years ago, his mill at Sittingbourne “would alone re- { quire & string of carts over four miles long, and at least 40,000,000 gallons of water every twenty-fonr housm": E ‘I'OGETm Wytheville, Va., Sept. 14—Floyd || Allen, the leader of the Allen clan, which shot up the Hillsville court- house in Carroll county on March 14 'last, when Judge Thornton L. Mas- sie, Commonwealth ~Attorney Wil- liam Foster and Sheriff Lewis Webb lost their lives, yesterday was sen- tenced to die in the electric chair at Richmond on Nov. 22. He was con- victed of killing Commonwealth At- torney Foster. Claude Allen, who was convicted of killing Sheriff ‘Webb, and who was convicted of sec- ond-degree murder in connection with the death of Prosecutor Foster, was also sentenced to die on the same date as his father. Sentence was pronounced by Judge Walter R. Stahles of Roanoke, who has presid- ed over the trials. = The sentence will be carried out unless the supreme court grants the men new trials. .
