) I J| Biographical Sketch of jg Teacher of "I meant to kill the President. I am -b disciple of Emma Goldman. "I have heard Emma Goldman lecture and have read her writings. I have done my duty."?From statement made by Czolgosz to the Buffalo police. Emma Goldman first came into nrnminpnpo in New York City during the bread riots of the spring and summer of 18'J3 growing out of the cloakmakers' strike. Since then she has been the most Teckless of all the incendiary speechmakers in the ranks of the Anarchists in this country. The character of the woman and her doctrines are best shown by her speeches. In these she has repeatedly said: ' "I do not believe in God." "When I die I would rather go to tell than to heaven. All tyrants go to heaven." , "I am against all laws." Emma Goldman spent ten months Jn the penitentiary on Blackwell's Island for a speech she made in Union Square on August 21, 1393, during the bread riots. She was convicted "of inciting to riot. It was her lover, Henry Berkman, clinf PfonrTr p TTYipfc of the Oar oegie mills. After her fashion of marriage she hail been his wife and publicly gloried in Berliman's act, which ALBERT BURBELLO. $he Inspired. The woman's strange Dower has made her the high priestess of the most rabid and fanatical of the {Anarchists. On the East Side she is known as the ^Little Firebrand." Her views are extreme and revolutionary even for the laverage run of Anarchists. Emma Goldman is thirty-three years Old. short, pudgy of figure, hard leatured and frowsy in appearance. Her hair is light brown and her eyes ibluish gray. Her chin shows determination. She is a remarkably fluent talker, land never fails to excite her Anarchist hearers to a high pitch. She speaks Kussian, German. English and French and writes Spanish and Italian. She iwas born in Russia and educated in (Germany. She was married when she iWas seventeen, and according to report has had several husbands since; When she is in New York the Gold- ( man woman makes her home on the East Side. She spends much of her |time in back rooms of saloons where 'Anarchists gather. A crowd of admirers constantly surrounds her. She hates women, and her life has been ( ; j: PETER FESTERE. ' passed mostly among men. Her feature's are almost mascu'ine. She form- ! erly worked in a sweat-shop and is said to have been a trained nurse. Mrs. Schwab, widow of Justus Schwab, runs the little basement barroom at 50 First street, New York, .where Emma Goldman makes her headquarters. The saloon is a low Ceiled, smoky, dirty room, with a short ibar extending lengthwise in the front. Over Mrs. Schwab's head hangs a frmss-rplipf nf Mnrnt with nn nlri-fnsh loned flintlock pistol, the barrel wound .with copper wire, swinging beneatb It. On the wall opposite her is a [blackboard with Anarchistic placards and notices on it. Beyond the bar are two or three round tables and a beer stained piano. DThen comes another room, with a long table lined with chairs. There the 'Anarchists who make Schwab's saloon Itheir headquarters hold their meetings.

Magistrate Brann, of New York, has proposed a plan whereby Anarchy in the United States may be stamped out Magistrate Brann, who has de voted considerable study to the problem, said: "When Congress meets it should pass a law barring all immigration from the South of Europe, from which i Anomhista nnmo fnr fpn voarfi. I At the expiration of that period, still with restrictions at our ports of entry upon immigration, persons in Europe desiring to come to the United States should be required to make application to our Commissioner abroad.

American citizens rarely become Anarchists, and when they do it is because they are densely ignorant and have imbibed the malign teachings of Anarchists of foreign birth." Prayer Wheels Discovered in Chin*. Prayer machines have been thought peculiar to Thibet. Only quite lately it was discovered that the Chinese, as an eminently practical people, void of sentiment even in their religious iews. li -j- c >itow d fioin tht lr neighbors the practice of mechanical prayer. The ordinary Chinese prayer machine is a small affair, four to eight inches high. Still, as hundreds of slips bearing the magic sentence can be placed within, and attached to it. by rotating the device the devotee tnrns out millions of prayers in a very short time. Famous temples and monasteries found it profitable to provide far larger ones. Those shown in our illustration are kept in constant rotation with the aid of a huge wooden flywheel. It's easy. The pilgrim buys the printed slips, and the wheel does the rest. Was It Ono of Alfred's Ships?

The War Office has reeiveJ the following dispatch from ieneral Kitchoner at Pretoria: "ivritzinger, while endeavoring to orce a passage of the Orange River ear Herschell rushed the camp of a arty of Lovat's scouts. It failed to ross the river, but the scouts lost eavily. Lieutenant-Colonel, the Hon. Lndrew Murray, and Captain Murray, is Adjutant, were killed.

General Kitchener also reported bat the British captured by the Boers i the ambush near scneepers ives ave beeD released, and that the Britsh casualties in the recent Vlakfon?in engagement, when the Boers capared a company of mounted infantry nd two guns, were one officer and ve men killed, twenty-three men founded, and six officers and 109 len taken prisoners. General Kitchner announced that these prisoners ave been released. The Commander-in-Chief in South Africa further reported the capture f two commandoes, one consisting of fty-five men under Commandant Hochs, and the other consisting of fty-four men, including P. J. Botha, rho were taken with forty-eight wagns and their belongings. General Kitchener's latest disatches, although they contain good .ews as well as bad, have done little y reassure the public concerning the tate of affairs. According to the latest advices from !ape Colony the situation there is ery serious, owing to the sympathy nd aid which the Dutch are giving y the Boer commandoes. The British nd it additionally difficult to obtain ,ews of Boer movements. General 'rench's task is described as the hardst allotted to him in the whole course f the war. At Pretoria the strength of the toers in the field is now estimated t 11,000. If these figures be correct, be Boera must'be constantly getting ecruits. Their supply of arms and mmunltion seems to be inexhaustible. In Boer circles in Holland it is 'aserted that everything is prepared for Dutch rising in both Cape Colony nd Natal. A most alarming letter from Cape 'own is published In the Daily Exress. The writer says: "The Boers are overrunning Cape iolony. They are on both the coast nes and within forty miles of Cape 'own.

MISS STONE'S CAPTURE irigands Surrounded the Mission* ary in a Narrow Valley. Story Told by Missionaries T?trra 'WitlJ Her and Afterward Released?Board of Mitislons to Fay a Ransom. Boston, Mass.?Details of the recent capture of Miss Stone, the American missionary, and one of heT helpers, by brigands in Turkey arc made known in a letter just received here by the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions.. The facts became known to one of the missionaries of the board in Samokoo, European Turkey, who were members of the party with whom Miss Stone and her assistant, Mrs. Tailka, were traveling when the capture was made. They could give no information as to where Miss Stone and her companion were taken, as the two women disappeared in the night and the reBt of the party were detained under guard for a time. Finally the robbers relieved these captives of watches and other valuables and departed. > The missionaries made their way at once to Samokoo. According to the story told by these victims the capture was made at 4 o'clock in the afternoon on September 3. while Miss Stone and Mrs. Tilka, the wife of an Albanian preacher, were traveling with friends from Ban? sko to DJumao. There were fifteen to eighteen In the party- The bandits confronted them In a narrow valley and compelled them to wade a river and ascend a wood mountain for about an hour. There appeared to be about forty brigands, dressed like Turks, but speaking goo'd Bulgarian. At length a stopping place was reached: The next mornine Miss Stoue and Mrs. Tailka were missed, and It was apparent tbat-the main body of outlaws had departed, leaving only a guard. Later this guard compelled the captives to give up their watches, money and jewelry, after which they disappeared up the mountain, leaving the missionaries free. The authorities did not learn of the capture until nearly twenty-four hours after it had occurred, and It is thought this gave all the chance the brigands needed to reach a safe hiding place. It is thought that they may have entered Bulgaria, and the army has received special instructions to guard the border closely and follow up any traces of the marauders which they may find. Washington, D. C.?In.reply to the Inquiry froin the State Department as to whether It would pay the ransom | demanded by the Bulgarian brigands who kidnaped Miss Stone, one of Its: missionaries, the American 'Board of Missions has, said that it has charged Its representative in Constantinople to pay a ransom for the woman, leaving the price to be arranged by him< WHITNEY QUITS ENGLISH TURF; He Withdraws Because American Horse* men Are Not Fairly Treated. London.?The retirement of William C. Whitney from the English turf occasions regret, but hardly surprises those who have noted the recent trend of events. There is a widespread feeling that behind Mr. Whitney's published reasons for withdrawing, his realization of the fact that the attitude of the British turf authorities toward Americans is no longer marked by. the absolute imnnrtiflHfv which Character ized their dealings prior to the preeminence of American owners, horses, trainers and jockeys. There have been many complaints that American horses were too heavily handicapped, that the jockeys were harshly treated, and that interferences during the races were' whitewashed, which would not have been tolerated on the part of American jockeys. TROOPER WAS A MOTHER. fost Tailor Led to Disclose Her Sex by i Her Child's Injury.

Eight hundred and seventy persons from all parts of the United States are asking for shares in the estate. They are represented by forty-three attorneys.

The Testimony of Bear-Admiral Iligglnson and Captai* Harher? Other Witnesses Heard. Washington, D. C.?The Schley Court of Inquiry resumed its sessions on Friday, and completed its organization by the prompt substitution of Rear Admiral F. N. Ramsay in place or Rear-Admiral Howison. There was plenty of indication that Admiral Dewey intended to make good his promise that the work of the Court should not lag. Captain Cook, of the Brooklyn, who was present in the witness room, and' who had expected to be the first witness, was displaced by Rear-Admiral Higginson, at the instance of the Judge Advocate, who was invited by, Rear-Admiral Schley's counsel to begin in any way he preferred. .J The testimony was interesting less for the direct statement made than for the contradictions of two witnesses on the same points, and the decision of the Court not to hear opinions. Rear GENSHOP Ijr THE WA3HINOTON NA.YT YARD. (The unpretentious building in which tbf sessions of llie Schley Court of InqalrJ are held.) Admiral Higglnson, who commanded the Massachusetts of the Flying Squadron, gave his testimony brusquely. He related the particulars of the run from Key West to Cienfuegos and beyond, said that he bad not been ad-> v|j vised by Commodore Schley of any plan of attack upon the Spanish vessels, if met, that the blockade off Santiago was maintained at from three to one and one-half miles, and that the line was closer to shore at night than during the day. Jg />1 *?A-* '? ? ~ tnnnirv uujecuuu WUB uuuu iu I.UC IU11UUJ by Judge Advocate Lemly as to what :' ? impression was made upon the wit ness by Rear-Admiral Schley's conduct during the brief firing upon the Cristobal Colon in the mouth of Santiago Harbor on May 31, and was sustained. Later, several questions pro* posed by the Court were submitted by Judge Advocate Lemly, one of which, understood to have been framed 4 3 by Rear-Admiral Beuham, sought to ascertain Whether the witness thought Commodore Schley had done everything in his power to capture or de: stroy the Colon, and was answered by Rear-Admiral Higginson with, "No; I don't think it was," before the objection of Rear-Admiral Schley's counsel could be made. After argument by Mr. Raynor, the question was withdrawu. Captain Giles B. Harber, who was executive officer of the Texas, differed from Rear-Admiral Higginson in that he stated that the blockading distances maintained by Commodore Schley were from seven to ten miles instead of from one to three, and also in asserting that the distance observed at night was greater than that held by day. With regard to the difficulties of coaling at Santiago he made less ol them than Rear-Admiral Higginson, ' ^ saying that they were not greater than at Tortugas when he had coaled the Texas there. Major Thomas N. Wood, Marine Corps, who was Captain of the Marine Guard on the Massachusetts, repeated an overheard remark said to have been made by Commodore Scbley, during the firing at Santiago on May 31, when Wood was eight feet away from the conversation. Schley was report-, cd to have said: "Starboard your helm, and let's get out of this." RearAdmiral Higgiuson did not refer to this direction by Commodore Schley. When questioned by the Judge Advocate about this remark, the witness as^ serted that he had heard It "fairly distinctly." The proceedings of the day brought no surprises except the conflict of testimony of Higglnson and tiarber as to the blockading distances observed by the fleet under ScWey.
