|^. GEORGE T. ANGELL DEAD.
Friend of Dumb Animals and Noted
Humanitarian Worker.
Boston, March 18.?George Thorndike
Angell, "the friend of dumb ani*
mals." and the leader in the humane
educational movement in the
United States, died here to-day,
iged 86. Hhe was the president of
;he Massachusetts Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals,
?k&- and for the past twenty years had
been president of the American Humane
Educational Association.
In 1886, after seeing two horses
run to death in a race, ne Decame interested
in humane work for dumb
animals, and established the publi.
cation, Our Dumb Animals. Since
that time he had been actively engaged
in the interest of his chosen
life work. In one year he printed
more than 17,000,000 pages of literature.
Tornado at Fort Deposit.
Fort Deposit, Ala., March 21.?
Shortly before 7 o'clock this morning
a tornado did considerable damage
to this vicinity. The loss was
small in the vicinity of the town, but
the entire negro quarter on the Norwood
Johnson place was totally destroyed
and a number of occupants
of houses injured. On the Buchanan
place the cottage of Miles Henderson,
a negro, was blown into splinters,
he and his wife suffering painful
injuries. Just east of Henderson's
house another negro cottage was
blown down and a small child blown
into the fireplace and burned to
death.
A number of other houses were
wrecked.

Jailed for Jumping Board Bill.
Lexington, March 19.?John B.
Herron, a young white man, was
? #>*! kAwa lopf r? i f "ho hflV
lUUgCU Jill J<111 UC1C iaoL uiguvi UV u?i.
ing been sent up for 30 days by
Magistrate Henry Buff, of New
Brookland, upon tbe charge of obtaining
board under false pretenses.
It is said that Herron secured board
at the home of M. I. Fox, in Brookland,
several weeks ago, stating at
the time that he would pay for the
same as soon as he received his pension
from the government, Herron
claiming that he was a veteran of the
Spanish-American war and was on
the pension list. With this understanding,
^it is said, Fox agreed to
keep on boarding him, but it seems
that Herron took his departure a
couple of days before he was to draw
his money and never returned. Fox
learned that Herron had gone to
Aiken county and accordingly had a
warrant issued for his arrest. Herron
was tried and convicted in Magistrate
Buff's court yesterday and
sentenced to pay a fine of $30 or
serve 30 days on the county chaingang.
Herron made a motion for a
new trial and was sent to jail here
pending the outcome. He is a native
of Aiken county, it is said.

CONTRACTOR DROWNED.
Went Fishing With Young Woman
and Met His Death.
Raleigh, N. C., March 18.?Andrew
J. Jackson, a prominent building
contractor, 51 years old, was today
drowned in Crabtree creek, three
miles from Raleigh, where he had
gone with a young woman, Florence
Lee, to fish.
The couple had been drinking.
They were on a rock ledge above the
creek when Jackson, seeing the woman
slip, according to her statement,
tried to catch her, and fell into
the water, the woman falling also.
The woman's screams brought help,
a pole was reached to her, and she
was pulled out. Jackson, an expert
swimmer, had held her up in the water,
but seemed dazed and would not
seize the pole himself. He was
drowned, his body being later taken
out. Evidence showed that Jackson
and the woman were on intimate
on/1 nrmflipHnP' Rfat.A

ments, together with the failure to
find $300, which Jackson had drawn
from the bank, and a reported quarrel
about a man the night before,
caused the coroner to arrest the woman,
as the death of Jackson is to be
investigated.
From Miner to Millionaire.
Scranton, Pa., March 21.?Former
Congressman William Connell, coal
operator, capitalist and philanthropist,
died to-day as the result of a
paralytic stroke sustained on Thursday
of last week. Begining life's
work in the coal mines in Luzerne
county, this State, Mr. Connell, by
close attention to business, died a
multi-millionaire.
One of the biggest tasks Mr. Connell
ever undertook was when appointed
sole' arbitrator for the Lehigh
Valley road in settling the
j claims arising from the Mud Run
disaster of October 10, 1888, when
63 persons were killed and 120 injured.
Only one case went to court.
Mi. Connell was also active as a mediator
in the attempted settlement of
coal strikes and other local industrial
disputes.
He was a member of the Fifty-fifth,
i?iftTr_eiv+>i TPiftv-KPvpnth and Fiftv
eighth congresses.
Killed by School Mates.
Indianapolis, Ind., March 21.?
Officers to-day began an investigation
of the death by hazing of Charles
Stintson, a pupil at the White school,
in White county. Stintson, it is alleged,
was strung up by the ankles
to a sapling near the school and left
hanging so long that he died a few
hours after he was taken down. Several
teachers of the school had been
driven away by unruly pupils. A
few days ago a new teacher was employed.
He was more determined
than his predecessors and whipped
several boys. These castigated pupils
alleged that Stintson tattled and
thus caused their humiliation.

TRIPLE TRAGEDY ON FARM.
Warren Briggs and His Wife Killed
by Neighbor.
Oil City, Pa., March 19.?The dead
bodies of Mr. and Mrs. Warren
Briggs, with holes from Winchester
rifle bullets in their breasts, were
found at their home, 10 miles east of
Tionesta, Forest county, to-day. Vhe
body of Amos Walton, a neighbor,
was found in the house with his
head almost blown off. It is believed
Walton killed Briggs and his wife
and then committed suicide. Walton
was 50 years old and Mr. and Mrs.
Briggs each 35 years old.
Recently Walton beat a son of
Briggs, who made information
against him before a justice of peace
at Marionville, charging assault and
battery. Walton was placed in the
r\f a prknHtnhle. The hearine
VUOWUJ VA V*
was to have taken place this morning.
Walton asked permission of the
constable to return home that he
might secure witnesses and the request
was granted. He went to his
home, took a .48-calibre Winchester
; rifle and was seen going to the
Briggs residence, arriving there
about 11 o'clock. The body of
Briggs was found near a barn, from
which he was evidently coming
when killed. Mrs. Briggs was skilled
in the kitchen of her home and the
body of Walton was found on a chair
in another room.

blushing face between his hands and
kissed her. The presentation ceremonies
took place in the speaker's
rooms at the capitol.

safe in the knowledge that no work j
would he entrusted to him. 5
"No," was the response; and then, <
before Billy could ask for the cus- <
tomary contribution: "But wait a j
minute. Lawyer Phillips has owed
me twenty dollars for twenty years. ]
Collect it and I'll give you half." And ]
the merchant, knowing how bad was ,
the debt, winked at a waiting cus- 2
tomer. (

"Well?" queried the lawyer, much
annoyed.
"Mistah Boyd done tell me that
you've owed him twenty dollars for
about a hundred years; and he
wants to know kin you pay him,
suh."
The lawyer hurried to Billy's side.
"You idiot," he said sotto voce,
"do you want to ruin my business?
Here!" and he thrust a ten dollar
bill into the old man's hand.
Back to the merchant toddled the
old man.
"Well, Billy," said the merchant,
"did you get it?"
The old man grinned.
"I got my half, all right," he
chuckled; "but you'd better look out
when you go back to get your half?
he's right smart hot over it, suh!"?

Billy Sunday's Eloquence.
"Twenty-two years ago, with the
Holy Spirit as my guide, I entered
this wonderful temple called Christi- i
inity. I entered at the portico of
Senesis, walked down through the
Did Testament art gallery, where the
pictures of Noah, Abraham, Moses,
Joseph, Isaac, Jacob and Daniel
iiung on the wall. 1 I passed into the
music room of Psalms, where the
spirit swept the keyboard of nature
ind brought forth the dirge-like wail
cf the weeping prophet, Jeremiah, to
the grand impassioned strain of
[saiah until it seemed that every
reed and pipe in God's great organ
zt nature responded to the tuneful
harp of David, the sweet singer of
Israel. I entered the chapel of
Ecclesiastec, where the voice of the
preacher was heard, and out of the
conservatory of Sharon and the Lily
3f the Valley's sweet scented spices
ailed and perfumed my life. I entered
the business office of Proverbs,
[ben into tne ODservaiury ruum ui i
the prophets, where I saw telescopes
Df various sizes, some pointing to
far-off events, but all concentrated
upon the bright and morning star,
which was to rise above the moonlit
tiills of Judea for our salvation. I
entered the audience room of the
King of Kings and caught a vision
3f His glory from the standpoint of
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John;
passed into the Acts of the Apostles,
where the Holy Spirit was doing the
Dlfice work in the formation of the
infant church. Then into the correspondence
room, where sat Matthew,
Mark, Luke, John, Paul, Peter,
James and Jude, penning their epistles.
I stepped into the throne
room of Revelations, where all towered
into glittering peaks, and I got
i vision of the King sitting upon His
throne in all His glory, and I cried:
'All hail the power of Jesus' name,
Let angels prostrate fall;
Bring forth the royal diadem,
And crown Him Lord of all."
Sympathy for Criminals.
Elsewhere is published a comment
from The Bamberg Herald, in which
the statement is made that had the
first man convicted of murder and
sentenced to hang in the county been
executed there would have been fewer
murders in Bamberg since it became
a county.' It was unfortunate
that the governor permitted his sympathies
to move him so far in that
case, but that ought to be a lesson
to the juries. They should do their
duty to their communities and if
blame is to follow, let it fall on the
proper shoulders. Convict, if the
evidence is incriminating, if the evidence
is wrong the responsibility is
elsewhere, if there are extenuating
circumstances in the case there is
another power to take them into
consideration. If they do not crime
will stalk abroad clothed in purple
and gold and show its arrogant head
with pride instead of shame.?Florence
