It is perhaps m to add that we refer to the dictionary in our judicial work as of the highest authority in accuracy of defini- tion; and that in the futureas inthe past it will be the source of constant reference.

New York, April 20.—Mrs. Bertha | L. Zybtk, a young Polish woune, | was taken from the steamship Staten- dam at Ellis Island, where she will be held pending the result of an investi- gation Into the death of her baby Elsa. Behind the tragedy lies a strange tale, strong with supersti- tion of the sea. Last Sunday the steamer ran into a terrible storm. Wave broke over the decks, clouds lowered until it was dark as night and the hatches were battered down on the terrified steer- age passengers. While the storm was in progress, Mra. Zybik’s baby was stricken with convulsions The fears of the superstitious peasants began to rise. They blamed the child for the storm and pointed to the convulstons as proof. “When the child dies, you must throw the baby overboard,” said the peasants, “Then the storm will cease, \ The terrified mother nursed her Its- tle one all the more carefully. To- ward evening the little body stiffen- ed out, “The child is dead,” said the pas- senyers. “Throw the body over- board.” “She's not dead,”’ screamed the | mother, “This ts third time she has stiffened out. She's liviug, I tell you,” The ship was pounding furiously against the waves and the nolse was deatening. The messengers became frenzied. ee I AVegetable Preparationfor As- f similating the Food andRegula- |}; Ling the Stowacts and Boweis of |} Promotes Digestion.Cheerful- ness.and Rest.Contains neither Opium, Morphine nor Mineral.

Ray, of near Jas: per, is now alive, for she took four shots at him with a shotgun Monday and was preparing to take a few more when he finally decided to run. Ray and his wife have been having trouble for some time, but the sult that has grown out of the shooting escapade rivals in {mportance all the five or slx litigations that they have been mixed up in during the last year. The story of the shooting 1s told by Ray and by his attorney, H. A. Tankersley, who was an eye witness to the incident. According to Attor- ney Taukersley’s story, he and Ray went to Jasper for the purpose of trylog to make @ compromise over the title to the home farm, and they had reached the front gate of the Ray property when Mrs. Ray came out with a double-barreled shotgun and ordered Ray not to come inelde or she would kill him. He, however, crawled through the fence, and she took a shot at him at distance of probably 40 yards. Her shot went wild, although Mr. Tankersley says “Overboard with the body,” they cried, The mother fought them back. They grabbed her other child and forced her toward the ratl. “See,” they cried, “unless you throw the body overboard we'll have to throw you and the other child along.” Just at midnight, against her will, she dropped the body into the sea. Then etrangely the storm abated. When the vessel reached port the loas of the baby was discovered. The mother told her story. She added, tearfully, that she belleves the child still lived when she dropped it into the sea. She te sure of it.

Prot. Waters was married to Miss Lena Chaney, of Belle River, Ill., in Belleville last April and the wedding was kept @ secret when the bride’s brother found he had a brother-in- law and straight away made thefact known. When the teacher reached the and decorous pupils treated him with scant courtesy. He was unceremontously se!zed and hoisted to a seat on a rail borrowed for the occasion from a nearby fence. Threats, pleadings and coaxiugs were unavailing, and the bridegroom was hustled around the building sev- eral times before he was released. Exhibited Old Shell. Carthage Democrat, S.

Huff Says the Oregon Coun- ty Crop Will Be Large. KC, Star, That Oregon county, Missourt, this year is to have one of the largest peach crops in its history is the belief of J. M. Huff, of Koshkonong, Mo., who was at the Kupper hotel. The town of Koshkonong {s one of the largest fruit ratsing districts of Amer- ica. More Elberta peaches are ship- ped from Koshkonong than from any other town in the world. “The peaches in our sectlon are practically safe now, as there are young peaches on the trees,” Mr. Huff sald’ “Is would take a hard freeze now to kill the fruit. “Around Koshkonong there is a strip of land six or seven miles wide devoted exclusively to the raising of Elberta peaches. Most of this land is owned by the McNair Orchard company, which, with {ts other prop- erties, controls more than 2,000 acres of orchards. “Thetrult growing industry makes Koshkonong o busy little town. People come there from. all parts of the Ozarks to help gather and pack the frult. When the peaches are be- ing gathered about 2,000 bushels are shipped from Koshkonong dally.” Army Officer is a Suicide. San Francisco, April 13.—Firet Lieutenant David A. Lindsay, U. 8.

He had desteoyed all his personal papers, and no cause fs known for his act. Fellow officers say he has appeared morose for several days past. _ Lieutenant Lindsay was a native of Pennsylvania thirty-three years ago.

This particular specimen was not explod- ed but the powder inside 1¢ fs still capable of sputtering when dried out. George Knight who lives in the vicinity where the shell was found is of the opinion that 1s was.shot there in 1865 when Gen, Price made his last raid up into this country. He does not think that there were any shells thrown {n that vicinity at the time when the battle of Carthage was fought. Senate Hits Injunctions. Washington, April—The Senate Friday afternoon passed the Over- man anti-injunction bill, which pre- vents the issuance of temporary {n- junctions by any Uulted States Dfs- trict Judge restraining the operation of a State law in which its conetitu- tionality {s involved, unless the ap- plication has been first heard and favorably acted upon by the Federal Judges, two of whom must beCircult Judges, and then only after a ma- jority vote. The measure aims to prevent the recurrence of any such legal entangk- ments as brought about a crisis be- tween North Carolina and the South- ern railroad and those in other States u year ago.
