mon enough, but
there is a man in Pittsburgh, accord

postage stamp poor. He didn't know
ihere really were so many stamps in
existence until he came into his stock,
and now he is eagei*'to dispose of the
lot cheap, for he needs the money.
About a year ago he loaned his broth
er S2OO to start up in a small business
•with a large mail-order department.
"Under the mistaken idea that stamps
are legal tender, with a deposit of bul
lion behind them in the national treas
ury, the debtor recently paid his
ibrother the S2OO in stamps. That
amount of money in one-dollar bills
makes a rather bulky roll, as anyone
■who ever nau that much at once can
testify, but S2OO in one-cent and two
cent stamps would till a large waste
basket, 'the Pittsburgh brother takes
the debtor's word for the correctness

hire an auditor, and his own time is
too valuable. The stamps are not

enough to last them for months, but
he still has enough left to begin at
the other end of an endless chain-let
ter scheme and work it backward.
In the Boston Journal the fashion
able ladies' tailor relates the tragic
. „, sto r y of"The
Story of a Iroua-
Trousseau." The
" < " nu ' lady lived in the
country. Periodically she came to
town and ordered gowns without both
ering about the price. "Finally one day
she came to town—oh she was a fine
woman as well as a fine customer—and
she said: 'l'm going to be married
soon. I should like as good a trousseau
as you can make.' She knew what that
would mean in the way of expense, but
she never asked a question about
prices; it was a carte blanche order,
you see. Well, we went to work and
imported some of the best goods—silks
and satins and laces—that could be
iound in Paris. You may be sure that
it was a trousseau we were proud of.
In round figures the cost was $2,000. It
was all ready a week before the dat»
set for her marriage, and we were just
about to ship it, when —what do you
thing?—we got word that she was
dead. She had been killed accidentally
in her own house. No, we didn't lose
our money. We putin our claim
against her estate. It vyas a tragic bill
Wasn't it?—' Trousseau, $2,000."'
A lady resident of Mexico, Mo., ha*
3ust won a curious lawsuit brought
against he* by a Connecticut firm
which manufactures bronze monu
ments. Som-i time ago she ordered
from the plaintiffs a $384 bronze mon
ument to be erected on the grave of her
parents, with this inscription:
"The Lord is my shepherd,
I shall not want."
The engraver made it read "fear" in
stead of "want," and Mrs. Doty re
fused to pay the bill. The la wsuit fol
lowed. The judge instructed the jury
that if they considered the inscription
to be a material variance from the
words of the psalmist they should find
for the defendant, and they did so.
Many humorous features were de
veloped in the taking of the census
of 1900. One question was indicated
by the remark "length of residence,"
which was expected to show how long
the people living in various localities
at the time of the census had been
there. When the reports came in it
was found that many of these queries
were answereu in figures in this way:
20x40, 15x30, etc. The enumerators
had gone around with a foot rule and
had measured the length of the resi
dences of the people they counted.

By tlie president of the United
States—ll proclamation.
It has pleased Almighty God to
bring our nation in safety and honor

cf religion and charity have every
where been manifest. Our country
through all its extent has been
blessed with abundant harvests. La
bor and the great industries of the
people have prospered beyond all
precedent. Our commerce has spread
over the world. Our power and in
lluence in the cause of freedom and
enlightenment have extended over
distant stas and lands. The lives' of
our official representatives and many
of our people in China have been mar
velously preserved. We have been
generally exempt from pestilence anil
other great calamities, and even the
tragic visitation which overwhelmed
the city of Galveston made ev'dent
the sentiments of sympathy and
Christian charity by virtue of which
we are one united people.
Now, therefore, 1, William McKln-
Icy, president of the United States,
do hereby appoint, and set. apart
Thursday, the 2!ttli of November next

I recommend that they gather in
their several places of worship and
devoutly give Him thanks for the
prosperity wherewith He has en
dowed us, for seed time and harvest,
for the valor, devotion and humanity
of our armies and navies, and for all
Ilis benefits to us as individuals and
as a nation, and that they humbly
pray for the continuance of his divine
favi#, for concord and amity with
other nations, and for righteousness
and peace in all our ways.
In witness whereof I have hereun
to set my hand and caused the seal
of the United States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington this

A MURDER IN A JAIL.
Two Ilnrirlar* Kill a Guard and One

Attempt to Karaite.
New York, Oct. 30. —Two colored
prisoners, in an attempt yesterday
to escape from the prison attached to
the Seventh district court, in West
Fifty-fourth street, killed Keeper
Hugh MeGovern, 51 years old, and
probabiy fatally injured George Wil
son, 50 years old, a "trusty" who tried
to aid McUovern. One of the prison
trs, Arthur Flanagan, escaped; the
other, Frank Emerson, fell into the
yard adjoining the prison and was in
stantly killed.
The prisoners were together in a
cell on the first tier, on a level with
the fourth floor of the prison. They
sawed two bars in the lower part of
the cell door and got into the corri
dor. They went to the nearest win
dow, about six feet from the floor,
and sawed one bar at the bottom,
shoving it out and getting through.
In doing this it is supposed that, they
encountered McGovern and Wilson,
killing one and wounding the other,
llow this was done is not known, as
Wilson cannot give an account of
what happened.
The escaping prisoners used their
bedding lor a rope and swung from a
window. Flanagan succeeded in
swinging to the roof of a car stable
adjoining, but Emerson did not make
it and fell headlong on a pile of rails,
whree his body was found with the
skull crushed in.
ALVORD IS CAUGHT.
Alan Who ICmbezzled $700,000 from
a New York Hank I* Arretted In
Hoaton.
Boston, Oct. 30.—Cornelius L. Al
tord, the absconding note teller of
the First national bank of New York
City, who is charged with stealing
$700,000 from the bank, was arrested
here Monday afternoon by Chief In
spector William 1?. Watts, of this city,
anil Detective Armstrong, of New
York, in an ordinary lodging house
at the corner of West Newton street
and Burlington avenue.
When arrested Alvord, who knew
Detective Armstrong, stated that he
was glad tiie suspense was ended and
was willing togo back to New York
without papers.
When asked what he had done with
the money he said: "Well, $700,000 is
a whole lot of money, but it goes
easy." In referring 1 to horse races,
he said he had backed horses, but
never on race tracks, and had owned
fast horses himself. He said he had
lived his life and had taken life to
ils full at the rate of $50,00?) a year or
more. He said he would not make
any fight, would throw up his hands,
take his sentence and after that was
over would come out in the world
again. He said he knew he would be
unable to secure bail and that he had
nothing with which to make restitu
tion.

Connt t'aalellane, flit- lliiaband of An*
na t.outil, t omea lo llie End of Ills
Financial Tellier.
Paris. Nov. I.—-The civil tribunal
has appointed (ieorge ,1. (lould trus
tee for the Countess of Castellane,
his sister. According to (lie pleadings
in the case her husband, Count iioni
Castellaiie, spent 23,000,000 francs in
four years, whereas his income from
his wife's fortune is only 3,000,000
francs.
Maitre Bonnet, when applying for
the trusteeship, informed the presi
dent of the court that the countess
herself recognized thai the expendi
ture had been too laxisii and that it.
was accessary for some one of expe
rience and authority to manage her
II Hairs. He went onto say that, al
though the countess was a consenting
party to the trusteeship, it was de
ferable that he should furnish precise
details.
The income of the countess was
::.0(i0,00<) francs. Since the marriage
35.000,000 francs had been expended,
and the debts now amounted to 22,-
000,000 francs.
The Could family had met in con
sultation and unanimously decided to
make Mr. George Gould trustee.
Maitre Bonnet went onto assert,
that the creditors distrained on the
Seine Et Oise property and that tin
family lad to intervene to prevent
ibe sal--.
With regard to the fitness of George
Could to be trustee. Maitre Honnet
pointed out that his fortune was
larger than that of the countess; that
authority based on affection wruld
be good, and that no one was better
qualified, as it was Mr. George (iould
who was appointed executor of his
father's will. Another consideration
was that the clearing of the debts
would take a number of years and
that therefore it would be wise to
economize arid not togo to the ex
pense of a paid trustee.
The tribunal, taking I his view, de
clared the plaintiff "possessed hitler
than any other, of the necessary po
sition ai d authority, to assist the de
fendress."
MR, GRIGGS SAYS
Attorney tieiicral Ilenlea Statement*
Made by Frank S. Mollnett.
Napoleon, 0., Nov. I.—The following
letter from Attorney General Griggs
to J. 11. Linthic limb, chairman of the
republican committee of Henry coun
ty. relative to certain statements
made by ex-Attorney General Mon
nett in a speech delivered here on
Oeober 31, was published yesiefJay:
"Washington. Oct. 25, i'>oo.—T.Var
Sir: 1 am in receipt of your letter
of the 23d inst. in which you stilte
that ex-Attorney General Frank S.
Monnett, of Ohio, in a democratic
speech at Napoleon on the 22d inst.,
stated lhat I.in a letter to him and
aiso in a personal interview with hira,
said that the reason why the trusts
have not been prosecuted was that
the president has been inactive and
indifferent in the enforcement of the
anti-trust laws.
"'Unless Mr. Monnett las ta\ett
leave of his senses. 1 cannot, believe
he ever made such a statement. So
far as I can recall, or the records of
this department show. I have never
written him a letter upon any s*>b
icct. I am sure that 1 never wrote
him a letter upon the subject of
trusts, nor in any wise alluded to the
art ion of this administration with
refernce thereto. As to his allegation
that I made such a statement in a
personal interview with him, that Is
also entirely untrue. 1 never met Mr.
Monnett but once, and that was only
for a few minutes when he called to
pay a visit, of courtesy, being intro
duced to nie by his predecessor, flit
present solicitor general. Hon. John
K. Richards, of Ohio. I do nol think
or believe that Ibe subject of trusts,
or any other subject, except such as
would arise in general conversation
upon a visit of this nature, was touch
ed upon. 1 am sure that I made r.o
fuch statement as you say Mr. Mon
nett attributes to me. Nor could I
have made such a statement, because
it would have be°n untrue."

Chicago, Nov. 1. —The culmination
of the October pork corner, con
trolled by Sir Thomas Lipton. came
yesterday when pork for delivery that
month advanced $3, rising from sl*
to S2O. It was said that Sir Thomas
could have made the price SIOO as
well as S2O. but he declared he had no
intention of "squeezing" anybody.
As a result of his deal here Lipton
is believed to have made $350,000.
There were only 35,000 barrels of pork
iliat could be delivered and the En
glishman owned them all, as well as
twice that number bought from peo
ple who did not have a barrel thej
could deliver. When the price reach
ed sl6 some time ago the majority of
shorts thought it time to buy some
cf the pork they had contracted to
deliver at approximately sll per bar
rel during October. Numerous pri
vate settlements are said to have been
made.

ed.
Mt. Pleasant, Pa., Oct. 31.—Four
Italian miners attempted to rob Pay
Clerk William Hosier, of the South
west Connellsville Coke Co.. while
making his trip between this city and
Albert on with the pay roll of the Al
verton and Tarr works, amounting to
$4,000.
Mr. Hosier is dead; his companion,
Harry Hurgess, messenger of the
company, is wounded; two of the
Italians are dead; a third fatally
wounded and the fourth in jail
Hosier and Hurgess left this city at
1 o'clock Tuesday afternoon with the
safe containing the money to pay the
men at the Alverton and I'arr works.
As they reached the summit of the
long hill above Morcwood, just below
which lies Alverton, a large cok<
town, without a second's warning the
four Italians fired a volle.t from their
hiding place and sprang forward, tir
ing as they advanced. Mr. Hosier
fell dead at the first- vol ley. Young
Hurgess, though wounded, was able
lo return their fire with effect, and
one of the number at the horses'
heads fell dead. A second later he
fired his revolver in the very face of
another, and as be fell his two re
maining companions became terrified
and, leaving the dead, set out with
the wounded one over the hill lo Ihe
south in the direction of the Alice
mines.
Burgess managed to drive on into
Alverton with the body of Mr. Hosier
and the safe, where he gave the
alarm.
Mount Pleasant and vicinity, with
the clerical force of the coke com
pany, turned out 500 strong, headed
by Lieut, .lohn O. Thompson, of Com
pany K, ami soon corralled the two,
who had concealed themselves in a
1 eld on the Durstine farm, a mile or
to from this town.
A summons to surrender was an
swered by a volley in which one of
the posse received a slight wound in
the chest. The outlaws from their
fortified position made a fierce stand
l'or a few minutes until one of the
posse succeeded in getting in their
rear. He shot <mt through the head,
killing him instantly. The other sur
rendered and was brought to the of
fice of Squire Rhodes and remanded
to jail.
In the meantime another division
of the posse overhauled the third
would-be robber, who had received a
ghastly wouiw. The ball, entering
his mouth and penetrating his head,
came out at the back of his neck. He
is not expected to recover.

announcement of the total popula
tion of the United States for 1900 is
70,295.220, of which 74,027,907 are con
tained in the 45 states representing
approximately the population to be
used for congressional apportion
ment purposes. There is a total of
134,158 Indians not taxed. The total
population in 1890, with which the
aggregate population of the present
census should be compared, was 63,-
(•09,765. Taking the 1890 population
as a basis, there has been a gain in
population of 13,225,455 during the
past ten years, representing an in
crease of neurit 21 per cent.
The population of Ohio is 4.157,545,
against 3,672,316 in 1*90; Indiana. 2,-

The early completion of the tabu

the census office to submit the figures
to congress as soon as it convenes in

information necessary to dispose of
the question of reapportionment, of
representatives at the coming session.
