(eo Deutsch, Famous Russian Revolu- tionist, Who Spent Sixteen Years There, Describes His In- carceration. After 16 years of exile in Siberia, Leo Deutsch, the famous Ru n revolu- Uonist, has just published at Stock- holm, Sweden, a book describing his ‘ducarceration. It is full of horrible and luimely revelations. He was arrested at Kieff more than 20 years ago because of an assault upon a Russian government spy, but succeeded in escaping to Switzerland. He settled at Freiberg, where he en- gaged in the printing of revolutionary papers for distribution in Russian ui- ritory. He was arrested again at tne in- Stance of the Russian government, ex- tradited, taken to St. Petersburg, and chained in a catue car, He was locked up for several months in the subter- ranean prison of the fortress of Ss. Peter and Paul, where all the arts of the prosecution were emptoyed in vain to obtain trom him the names of his Russian accomplices, After conviction he was transferred from one prison to another until be was locked up for a whole winter in the most horrible of them all, tnat of Moscow, where he-found many prison- ers condemned tor political crimes. In his book he describes the means used by the prisoners to communicate with each other by knocking on the damp walls of their underground cells. In the St. Petersburg prison was also the beautiful Vera Figner, the aristo- cratic nihilist, who was condemned tu death in 1883 for disseminating ana-- chism among the Russian nobility, and Whose sentence was afterward com- muted to imprisonment for life. She is still in the subterranean vaults, much like a person buried alive. After 15 months of this life Deutsch Was sent to Siberia. He gives a vivid description of the long journey of 12,000 versts to Kara, where he met Many socialist convicts, with whom he spent the most pleasant period af his incarceration, He tells of a@ young woman named Sigida, who died there under the knout, and of three of her companions who committed suicide rather than stand Ww same punishment. He relates that all the male prisoners determined tv do the same with morphine, but that only two succeeded in taking a suffi- cient quantity of the poison. In 1902 Deutsch succeeded in escap- ing to Vladivostok and Japan, thence through the United States to Sweden where his book has just been pub- lished. WIDOW TESTS IOWA MAYOR. Makes Leap-Year Proposal to Gowrie Official Who Issued Mar- riage Decree, Mayor Sorber, of Gowrie, la., who {s- sued a proclamation that all bachelor and spinsters must marry or pay a tax, is receiving many letters from people tnxious to marry. A widow writing from Pittsburg, Pa., is apparently “from Missouri.” She wants Mayor Sorber to show her, and offers her hand in marriage. Providing he does not-care to accept she will let him off if he puts $20 in the library fund, which she considers decidedly novel. She writes: “IT was struck at your novel offer in the means of securing a library. It is good, and I intend to proceed to carry out the idea an& test you, and if not taken put $20 to the fund. I am a widow, some- what up in years, no children, and would enjoy the fun of a leap year offer, so I most humbly offer my hand and time will tell our hearts. Hoping to hear from you, | am, in haste.” The mayor refuses to give out the real name and address of the charming widow. POLICE AS CHESTERFIELDS. Switzerland Chief Will Train His Sub- ordinates in Civility and Deportment. Taking the London police as his model, the chief of the Zurich (Switzer- land) police means to make his men as good, if not better, In future the gendarmes are to re- ceive lessons from professors in civility and deportment. They are to be taught especially how to beat themselves with dignity and grace in different circum- stances. The lessons are to take place at the police station, where those who are not on duty will be paraded before the pro- feseor of dancing and put through their steps and attitudes. The lessons in civ- ility will be given by the chief himself. REFUSES TO LEAVE JAIL. Englishman Expresses Delight at His Surroundings and Declines to Change. The Isle of Man rejoices in a prison- er who is so comfortable in jail that he refuses to come out. He is a young Englishman named Prank Leslie Hyde, who was sent to prison in default of not paying his | bill of £39 at the Fort Anne hotel, at Douglas, last summer. The case came up in the Manx chan- cery court recently, but Hyde, in inti- mating that he should not avail h{m- self of the privilege of coming up and “purging his contempt,” said he was | Rscape from Bottle and Steck Mase suckuscits with Gypsy Moths— Latest Plan to Fight Them. A tew years ago a scientific person im Massachusetts imported some caterpil- lar: interested him, and kept them ina boule. But one day the bottle tipped j Over anc some of the caterpillars escaped into the scientist's garden, and pres= enuy stocked it with gypsy moths. To catch them and their descendants the Bay state has since spent about $1,000,- 000 of public maney. They have cost it many millions dollars besides in dam- ages. The old method of fighting them was to find and destroy the cocoons. The State finally gave that up, much to the regret of many of its citizens. The bugs jhave since increased very much, and carried destruction into the woods, It is now proposed to fight these pests in he latest fashion, by breeding parasites which will attack them. That method is recommended by Mr. Koebele, of Ala- meda, Cal., who tried it successfully in that state for white scale. The Massa- chusetts Forestry association favors the experiment, which will not cost much, and Mr. Koebele will doubtless be in- vited to bring his parasites to Massa- chusetts and sick them on, The whole country is concerned in this experiment, because a Massachusetts congressman has invited congress to declare the gypsy moth a national enemy and to appro- priate $250,000 to fight him. The parasite cure is a modern wonder and has been effective in cases of great moment. Mr, Koebele says it will not wipe out the Sypsy moths, but will keep them down, The boll weevil may presently be re strained by the same methods, at GUARDS TO PROTECT POPE, Vatican Authorities Fear That Owing to Democratic Habits of His Hol- iness He Will Be Attacked, The recent arrest of a crank seek- ing amdience with the pope has caused the greatest precautions to be adopted to insure the safety of Piux X. What renders the matter more difficult is the pope's habit of promenading unaccom- panied in halls to which every one can gain access by paying the price of ad- mission, Cardinal del Val has tried vainly to have a bodyguard accompany the pope wherever he goes, Sentinels have been placed in all the passages with orders to prevent any person from approach- ing his holiness during his promenades and instructions to keep concealed as much as possible while the pope is Passing. Armed guards have been posted all ‘over the large gardens, and have been ordered to arrest any stranger found in the papal domain without a written authorization. The Italian government which considers itself responsible be- fore the world for the pope's safety, keeps gendarmes and policemen patrol- ling the streets around the walls of the vatican gardens day and night, Whenever a ceremony takes place in St. Peter's at which the pope is to be present, admission is only by ticket, and a large number of detectives dressed as monks, priests and nune keep watch among the assembled thousands. SHAWL IN FOUR GOWNS. Fabric from Japan Woven Into Wed- ding Dresses of Quartette of Indiana Brides, Japan once furnished a single silk wrap that figured in no less than four wedding gowns, all of which have been preserved. The garment was a costly crepe shawl that was sent to the family of 8. B. Hynes, of Chicago, and became the property of Mrs, Hynes, It wassent, inclosed in a beautiful case, by a friend of the family, the duty being $65. In the Hynes family were four daughe ters who were becoming of marriageable age, and each wanted the Japanese shawl. Finally Mrs. Hynes, to settlethe matter, cut the garment into four parts, giving one to each of her daughters, Each piece was deftly worked into the wedding gown of the bride to be, as the marriages took place several years apart. The delicate fabric was draped over the ‘ront part of the gowns, the crepe being solidly embroidered, alike on each side, with a heavy fringe. The youngest of the four daughters was married last fall, ut Laporte, Ind., and the other sisters oaving preserved their wedding dresses, the four were photographed, each cos- tume showing the style of the day in which it was made. The daughters are now the wives of Frank Pitner, Laporte, (nd., H. E. Riggs, Toledo, 0.; Franklin Warner, New York, and P. S. Elwell, Chicago. DEBT IS 118 YEARS OLD. New Jersey Man Asks Payment of a State Certificate Issued Jan- uary 1, 1786, A special act of the New Jersey legis- lature will be necessary to enable the state treasurer to pay a certificate of Indebtedness forwarded for payment by John Fennimore, of Burlington. The certificate is No. 280, is dated January l, 1786, and is made out to the order of May Fennimore for £13 1s. 6d. The tate of interest is specified to be six per cent annually, As every bill now is a portion of some appropriation, the state treasurer 4as no account from which he can pay ithe certificate of indebtedness, and as \there may be urged the statute of lim- {tation it will be necessary to pass a special law to enable the state treas- arer to pay if he decides to do so.

Twenty-eight seamen were killed, fifteen are miss- ing and sixty-five were wounded, some fatally. But few escaped in- jury. The only officer mortally hurt was Ensign Newman K. Perry. Lieut. Yates, who was in charge of the gunboat, was badly acalded. Commander Lueien Young and Lieut. Victor Blue, both famous as naval heroes, were not on the vessel when the explosion occurred. Com- mander Young went ashore on busi- ness, and Lieut. Blue was taken to a hospital here to be treated for ap- pendicitis, Hundreds of eyes were on the Ben- nington at the moment of the horror, for the bay was dotted with pleasure craft and ferry boats, whose passen- gere watched the trim gunboat with pasaing interest. These watchers saw a cloud of steam burst from a point justforward of theemokestack. Through the steam came flying bodies and fragments of men to be ecatter- ed upon the waters. Coincidently a roar like thunder told the cause of thetragedy. The Bennington rocked and sunk, The scene on the deck of the Ben- nington was horrifying. A score of dead saflors were scattered about, several with their limbs blown off Others were scalded so fearfully that death was only a matter of afew hours. The bloating of the features and limbs by steam gave the victims such @ repulsive appearance that commander Young, who hasseen ser- vice in Hawaiian waters, declared that not even the leper settlement at Molokai could show anything so fearful.
