NEGRO DESPERADO IN WASHINGTON. He Kills Ono Policeman and Wounds Another. Washington, May 17 -Humphrey Taylor, a negro suspected of the Bcssnstein marier at Siideil, Md., to day shot aod killed Police Sergeant Frits Passas, wounded Policeman Gow c and kept a posse of a half dozen offi cers at bay from the loft of a house for nearly two hours. Dosens of shots were exchanged bs* tweeo tbe officers and the fugitive who only surrendered when preparations . were made te boro the premises. Last Saturday moruiog Louis Rosen ssein and hts wife, who kept a small .store at SI idell, were found insensible and horrib'y wounded io their store room. Rsseasieiu soon died from bis injuries and the woman is believed to be near death. Suspicion fell upon a negro named Humphrey Taylor, alias Brown, who had disappeared. A negro answering the description of Tay hr was seen last Saturday evening, aad information received by the police led them to believe their mau was liv ing in a small bause about a quarter of a mill west of Georgetown. Early this - morning Taylor was seen to enter the place and word was immediately sent to the nearest precinct static o and a posse of c ioers hurried to tbs place. The men were posted about the house while Passau, Gow and another attempted to gain enterance through the front door. Fis ally the door was forcsd. The two small room? on the first floor were . - empty acd the officers ascended to the second story. The frost room was also untenanted, and as the men passed into \ the rear apartment. Taylor opened are j from the trap door of a cock loft in which he bad taken refuge. Sergeact Passau sank to the floor I dead with two bullets through his chest. Policeman Gow opened fire through the trap but failed to hit tba fugitive. Gow received a bullet in his right hand, badly shattering it and another struck bis metal badge and glanced downward the entire length of his coat. Thc reserves of two precincts were eallsd out and the bouse surrounded. The shooting, meanwhile, had attract ed several thousand persons. Ocea siosally the oegro would fire a shot at the officers and immediately a volley would acswer it, but no ose wa3 hurt. With revolvers ia band they watched every window and tried several ruses to draw Taylor's Ara. He seemed to have an uclimited supply of ammuni tion. Finally, concluding that he would no* surrender, District Commissioner Wright directed the poiice to fire the premises. A a at tress was secured, saturated wiro oil and the officers began to remove the furniture. Seeisg his game was hepsiess, Taylor surreadered. Surrounded by officers with drawn revolver he was bustled out of the house to the patrol wagos, whsa tba crowd surged forward wish, shoats of "Lynes bim !" "Bara bim !*' and mada a rush for the prison er. A rope was secured ae-d the mob made a desperate effort to piaoe it around the wretch's neck. The cool ness of tha officers, however, saved Taylor, though ho was rather badly disfigured by blows from (bs nearest cf xfce crowd. Cpos searching the premises tba po lice found $192 and a gold watch and eb is, where be bad secreted them * He hid a diamond riog and a small sum of money ou hts person.

"Drey fas," says the Doctor, * ia a neuro patbic subject, and the regime te which be bad been submitted has made bim more &o ; isolation, idle ness, boredom and discouragement irritate hie nervous system. His malady displayed itself about a year after his imptisonment bad com menced and took tbe form of cerebral depression * * * Under bis strength of will one could detect, however, stormy symptoms, and bis jailers said tbat often when first awakening of a morning, be would break out into 8 furious passion, bursting into tears, gesticulating like a madman and shouting unintelligi ble words TL ese violent rages gen erally resulted i ti titter exhaustion and general torpor, aud sometimes io syncope, when, of course, I was sent for * * * But the oaiy palliative remedies for acute neurabtheuia which I consider incurable-are bracing air, amusement, active iife a treatment, in shore, not to be dreamed of in bis case." The Si. Louis Republic points cut cae of tha evil effects of trusts thus : "Grounds for repelling trust formations ara many, but none is more pressing thao the faot that it enables the assemblage of vast sums under a siegle management ia the control of specific Hoes sf business, and thereby gives a maximum opportunity to tbs employer to curtail wages uojustly."

At a bacquet given on Saturday night, May 13, at San Franoisoo, Cal., by Collis P. Huntington to directors of the Southern Pacific Railroad Mr. Huntington mde a remarkable speech, in which he declared that much of tho distress in the Uoited States was du9 to over-education of the masses. He said : "I regret one tendency in our oouotry, admirable as are her icstitu ticas. It is almost heresy to say it, but I do col mind taking responsibility. I refer to the increase of higher educa tioa for the masses. The Anglo-Saxon bas easily outstripped all competitors in those things which make for commercial and success of nations beoause ne has been, above all other tbiogs, practical. While preparation for professional life requires advanced knowledge, it seems to me that the vast majority of our young people spend too many of their vigorous years of youth inside of the school room and not enough io the practical work of life. "The years from fifteen to twenty-one are immensely valuable, for they are years of keen observation, individuality and confidence. In many oases-quite too many-they are spent in orammicg the mind with knowledge that is not likely to help young men in work they are fitted to do. "How maoy young men with college educations are standing about waiting for something that will never come because work that lies nearest at hand is not to their liking ? We seem to be fast outgrowing these things, which, when our fathers lived, were called sterling qualities, but are now called follies, or work that a gentleman should not do, as if ali honest work were not honorable work." A Dime for Dewey* The New York Journal bas under i taken the collection of silver dimes to be melted into a loving cup for Admiral Dewey. It says : Every American man, woman and child admires Admiral Dewey. Ev ery one would like to give him some personal expression of esteem. In the same way nothing would be so thoroughly appreciated and so highly treasured by Dewey himself as a token which would actually rep resent the admiration 3nd affection of the people The Journal, therefore, suggests that every one who wishes to make some personal expression of bis regard for Dewey send to the Journal Dewey Memorial Department a silver 10 cent piece-simply that and noth ing more-and that all the 10 cent pieces should be melted up and made into a great vase or loving cup to be presented to tbe admiral oo his return. The Journal will not receive iarger donations for this cap. The idea is to have something tbot will represent tbe great mas3 of the people, and not a few wealthy men. Mr. Lodge's Dilemma. The English are having a quiet laugh over thc new history o the revelation, written by Senator Lodge. The carrative for thc most part, is a traditional roast of the nat os%I "foe," bat when the author came to finish the work he found the Spanish war io progress, and the air full of gushing talk about the good leeliog between England and America. The last chap ter, therefor*, drips with hooey fur our new-found Eo*iifch friends. The ebaoge io tone is so sudden as to be comical.

CASTOR IA For Infants and Children. Tbe Kind You Have Always Bought j Bears iiis Siguatuxe of MALARIA AND MOSQUI TOES. It is well kuown that malaria is generated in swampy piaces. Such places are notoriously the haunts of mosquitoes. The spot of evil omen may be a pebble under the bedroom window, or a mile of swamp a mile away. When the germs, introduced though the probosice of the mosquito, have made their way into the human blood, they find there all they require for their subsistence and a nursery favorable for reproduc tion.. The various stages of their j life history are found to be synch ronou8 with the various stages of ague and fever on the part of the patient, and it is highly probable that the various typea of malarial disease may yet be traced to different species, of parasite, each demanding its spe cial variety of mosquito. In a little hospital at (he Albert docks the other day, surrounded by the big ships that bring to it their daily freight of disease, I was al lowed to watch part of his life bis tory under the microscope. The assistant had taken a drop .of blood from the patient's finger a moment before and placed it under the lens The next moment I was watching the whole dramatis personae-if I may say so-of tbe trsgedy in real life being enacted within a few yards of where I sat. There were the human bloofl corpuscles in every stage of health and disease, some laden with the little black speckled amoebae, (malarial parasites,) others showing the spherules of the more advanced stage of its development. There were also presont one or two of the large white cells called phagocytes, which exist naturally in all blood to act as scavengers* for dearing it of foreign matter. As I watched, there emerged from a group of corpuscles the pale, creeping form of one of these phagocytes, which began slow ly to engulf and draw into its trans parent body some of toe little black parasites -Nineteenth Century. - . ? ? -- Adventists Defiant. The three Adventist families "living near Chick Spring who have during the past few weeks so thoroughly stirred up that neighborhood by working on Sundays are not paying much attention to the fact that they have been served by a committee representing a mass meeting with resolutions warning them under pen alty of arrest to quit working on Sundays. The Adventists have sent word to their fellow Adventists in Greenville that they do not intend to quit working on Sunday and that they are still doing so and that there will be no trouble for auybody to find them at work on Sundays However, they have stopped working so near the public road on Sundays, not wishing to irritate their fellow citizens who think Sunday the only proper day to observe as the Sabbath. They say they conscientiously ob serve Saturday as the Sabbath and cannot afford to quit work on Sun day ; that ihey are not able to lose two days out of the week, and that they will not obey the mandates of the mass meeting, though they sutler arrest for it. They wit! stand up for what they consider a principle and will fight the case ail the way to the federal supreme court if necessary. Greenville News. What Our War Has Cost. War comes high, but io spite of dis armament manifestoes and peace ooo ferenoes, it seems that now and theo we must have it. We have bean told that ..between men entirely great the pen is mightier than the sword," bat the trouble is m^n are ooo entirely great Sometimes oircomstaoces seem to demand that nations shall dash arms together, and when national honor is at stake, a brave nation does not stop to couot the cost, io dollars. But in this day of statisticians and bureau3 mes calculate tbe cost of all our governmental transactions, and here are acm? war figures that are in teresting In the last fiscal year the war oost was estimated by Assistant Vanderlip at $56,000,000 In the ten months of the current fiscal year the expenditures of the army and-navy departments foot up $266.168,430 During the corres ponding months of the laft year the two departments spent $95,389,565, of which according to the figures given by Mr. Vanderlip, $14,000,000 was for war expenditures io Maroh and April 1898. leaving the expenditures of the departments on a peaoe basis at $81, 289.565 for the ten months under comparison. Thus the expenditures cf the two departments during the carrent fiscal year exceed those for tho same period of tho last fiscal year cn a ievel by $184,778,865. To this amount must be added the $20.000.000 paid to Spais a few day9 ago for 10,000,000 Filipinos at $2 per bead. The three items specified foot up $260,778,865, an amount which represents as closely as one can come to it the actuai outlay of the war and navy departments caus ed by be hosL ities with Spain and "benevolent assimilation" in thc Phil ippines This takes no account of pensions that will result from the war, nor is there any estimating of what continued war or continued mi.i'ary control in the Philippines wi:l oost. We are not deal ing in futures. The foregoing figures deal only with the cost up tc date. Augusta Chronicle. Hubbard's Cotton Letter. What is Said of the Status of the Cotton Market. New York May 18.- Manchester is the principal support to the cotton market at the present time, purchas ing in Liverpool daily in full supply which necce8sarily bringa buying orders here for such contracts as have been sold against this cotton to pre vent loss Crop advices and the large movement, however brought enough selling orders from tho iongs io supply this demand and form this interest the selling must come, as no one will sell cotton short under pre sent trade conditions, though admit ting the existing large surplus, our market, after opening steady at a slight advance, slowly declined, when the foreign demand was satisfied and the trading began very limited. Sb far the business seems confined to the liquidation on either side as the cotton passes into consumption with the traders disposed to buy on every break on the theory of the possible damage to the crop some time in the future Hubbard Bros & Co -cam T.
