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

sum of money ou hts person.

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

Over Education.
Collis F. Huntington Calls a
Halt on Excessive Edu
cation.
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. For once (he Eogli.-h see
the jose The lesson from the
historians standpoint is not to mix past
history sith current poii'ics, especially
if you are wri:iog of an-era long gone

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.

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.

been sold against this cotton to pre

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
