How Neptune Was Discovered.
Tho glory of discovering the big
planet Neptune l>elongs to two men.
An astronomer in Cambridge and an
other in Paris, each quite ignorant of
what the other was doing, applied
themselves to the task simultaneously.
Bach independently declared that, if
the laws of motion and gravitation
were true, there must lie at a certain
•pot In the heavens a certain mass of
matter hitherto unknown to astrono
mers. The presence of such a mass of
matter in such a place would account,
they said, for the disturbances that
had been noticed in the movements of
'Uranus. When the telescope was
turned to the point Indicated, the
(planet which we now know as Nep
tune was discovered. This brilliant
piece of work was. done by L<everrier
and Adams on Sept. 23, 1840.

In America the bqttpp and in Scot

Edlnburgn In the form of imitation

Chicago, May 28.—Miss Philander
Swinnen, 20 years of age, believed to
be demented, shot and killed ber
mother, attempted to kill her father,
and then set lire to her garments
and wa? burned to death early Tues
day morning.
Th< woman was released from the
Dunning asylum a year ago. Her
lather, Joseph Swinnen, a laborer,
escaped by running out of the door.
A love affair is said to have been
responsible fyr the young woman’s ac
tion. Her mother and father were
in bed asleep when the girl arose and
found her father’s revolver. She
fired two shots at her mother, both
of which took effect and Instantly
killed her.
As Swinnen jumped from his bed
the girl fired two shots at him. He
was afraid to go near her, and ran
from the house to summon assistance.
When Swinnen returned with a po
liceman and several persons they
found the young woman lying upon
the floor, her clothing ablaze.
Most of her clothing had burned
off. They put the fire out and sum

NAVAL PROJECT ABANDONED.
Plan To Transform Cruiser Into Mine
Ship Falls Through.
Washington, May 28.—The navy
department has been obliged to aban
don Its plan to transform the cruis
ers San Francisco into a mine-ship
because the change will involve the
expenditure of more than $200,000,
and consequently would require a con
gressional appropriation.
The San Francisco is now at Nor
folk, where the work was to have
been undertaken. The plan was to
equip this ship with a plant capable
of handling rapidly and with reasona
ble safety what are known as floating
and submerged mines, such as were
u«ed with great effect during the Rus
so-Japanese war. A properly equipped
mine ship can place these elements
of coast defense in any ordinary har
bor In sufficient numbers to insure
protection in a course of a day or two,
whereas many days and even weeks
will be consumed by an ordinary ves
sel in the accomplishment of the same
ameunt of work.
The conversion of the cruiser Balti
more, now at New York, into a min
ing ship is also temporarily suspend
ed for similar reasons.
Assault Officially Investigated.
Tokio, May 28—The Japanese press
Is still generally calm and reserved
over the apparently unprovoked attack
upon Japanese in San Francisco. But
It is only out of deference to Presi
dent Roosevelt and his government
and the confidence reposed in them
that public expression of resentment
is withheld. Even the most conser
vative and hopeful fear that a repe
tition of a similar occurrence may
have serious results upon the rela
tions of both countries. however,
at present the firmest and friendliest
state Is still expressed. It is confi
dently hoped that the Washington
government has decided to take meas
ures that will prevent repetition of
assaults and attacks upon Japanese.

North Carolina Man Is Bald To Have
Forced GiH into Marrying Him.
Charlotte, ?$. C., May 28.—One of
the strangest cases ever occurring in
this city came to light wjjien Henry
Hirsch, a prominent real estate man,
who came here some months ago from
Charleston, S. €., whose he was
mustered from the army, was arrest
ed on a charge of assault and sent to
Jail in default of $1,000 bond.
The warrant on which he was ar
rested was sworn out by J. R. l>em-
mond, brother of the newly-wedded
bride of Hirsch. It is claimed that
last Saturday Hirsch begged Miss
I^mmond to drive iip the street with
him. After protest she consented,
only to be driven about the city until
bewildered, it is claimed, and then
carried to the home of Squire Balles,
near Pineville, N. C., the matrimo
nial artist, where she claims to have
been forced to marry Hirsch.
Hirsch is charged with threatening
to shoot her if she made outcry, and
her brother alleges Hirsch held her
while Squire Baiies read the ceremo
ny. The couple spent two days in
matrimonial bliss until the brother of
the bride, who had been working with
attorneys on the case, succeeded in
having his brother-in-law arrested on
the charge of assault.

Cutting a Steamship In Two.
Modern steamships are so construct
ed that when they run on the rocks, if
you cannot save the whole boat you
can save part of it This waa proved
a few weeks ago by salvagers who
were working over the White Star
steamship Suevic, which went ashore
under the Lizard lighthouse on March
17. The boat was fast on the rocks,
and it was Impossible to pull it off, so
tbe salvors decided to cut it in two.
They left the bow on the rocks, towed
away tbe .after two-thirds containing
tbe engines and landed it safely In
Southampton harbor. Now It will be
necessary to build only a new bow, as

Reproduction of Monitor-Merrimsc En
gagement at Jameatown Exposition.
There are muuy i>eople uow living in
tbe vicinity of Hampton Roads who
will remember tbe terrible days of
March S and 1), ISd’J, to the last hours
of their lives. On those days the brav
est of them risked tbe missiles of
death and thronged tbe shores to be
feme eyewitnesses of tbe most unique
naval engagement in the history of the
world, tbe struggle between the Mend-
mac and tin* Monitor.
To those who witnessed this famous
event as well as to those millions of
visitors to Norfolk, Va., from all parts |
of this and oilier countries (ti whom :
the ’etails of the battle are familiar
us matters of history one feature of I
the Jamestown exposition will be of j
especial Interest. This will lie tin* j
spectacular reproduction of the great
engagement which occurred just off j
tbe exposition grounds in Hampton ;
Roads, and the presentation will be \
given In as realistic manner as tbe per
feet equipment of the present day will i
allow- The historical location so near |
tbe actual scene of the occurrence |
lends added interest lo the reprodue- ;
Hon, and it is sure to be one of the de |
cided attractions of tbe exposition.
The scene of tbe battle will l>e cyeo- |
rania and will be as grand a sight as j
the human eye ever lieheld. The scene i
opens the day In-fore the battle lx*- !
tween the ironclads and shows the sun '
just setting uixtn the leaping flames of |
the burning Congress and the sinking
Cumberland, with her cannon booming
and her crew cheering as the ship set
tles beneath the waves and the brave
fighters going down to death rather
than surrender. The victorious Merrl-
mac is seen slowly steaming away to
the shelter of the Confederate shore
batteries to a ♦ait the coming of dawn
to complete the work of destruction.
This sunset scene will be one of the
most gorgeous ever beheld and will lx*
a revelation of this character of scenic
effect. Twilight comes on, and the
lurid light of the burning vessels casts
its reflection upon tbe waters, reveal
ing tbe other vessels of tbe federal
fleet, to which it seemed as a forecast
of tbeir own doom on tbe morrow. As
tbe darkness apjx*ars tbe stars twinkle
and tbe scene becomes tranquil. Theu
come rolling clouds, forked lightning
and peals of thunder, and a storm
bursts in all its fury. Ruin falls in tor
rents, and tbe scene will have every
appearance of reality. After tbe storm
has subsided tbe stars again show
themselves and tbe moon appears in
all her glory.
After awhile tbe day begins to dawn,
and tbe sun peeps over the eastern ho
rizon, and the audience beholds the
most beautiful sunrise that can be Im
agined. Out on the water they will see
the Merrimac steaming down upon the
Minnesota. The Confederate Ironclad
has been repaired after ber damages
from ramming the Cumberland the
evening before and draws closer and
closer to the federal ship. The Minne
sota lies helplessly stranded In shallow
water, but suddenly from the rear
darts the Monitor. The Merrimac puts
on all steam, and soon the battle be
tween Ironclads Is on. The cannon will
be seen in action, and the crack and
roar of the guns will be aa real as It
was during the time of the great fight.
The audience will be thrilled with tbe
working of each gunboat and every
movement will Ije In harmony with the
most authentic records of the great
battle. Just at the climax the curtain
will be drawn, and the audience will
be left to determine which was victor.
The engagement will be so repro
dneed that no exception can be taken
by the visitors from any section of the
country.
The Merrimac and Monitor used in
the reproduction will be made of steel,
and by tbe effect of the new appli
ances of electricity they will appear to
the spectators the actual size of the
vessels when they were engaged In this
historic battle.

Atlantic office, in January, Mr. Aldrich
seemed, for the first time, to have
grown old. One of his friends spoke
of it as he went out Up till th*?
morning the weight of seventy years
had scarcely seemed to touch the erect,
Jaunty figure. The lines that time
had written around his clear blue eyes
and firm mouth conveyed no hint of
senility. His hair was scarcely gray.
His voice, slightly husky in its graver,
sweeter tones, retained a delicious
youthful crispness as it curled and
broke, wavelike, into flashing raillery.
He had Just completed bis poem for
the Longfellow centenary, his first
verse after some years of silence, and
when it was praised to his face—for
who could help praising It—he blushed
with pleasure like a boy. Yet he had
passed threescore and ten, and the
