SITTOIt.
Shamokln (8pcclal). Miss Edna
Blystone, of Burnilde, a local sub
urb, was probably fatally shot by
Martin Kane, also of that place, on
a mountain road. Following the
shooting she was attacked by him
but succeeded in escaping to her
home a milo away. New of the
shooting quickly spread and an an
gry crowd of villagers threatened to
lynch Kane.
An examination showed that a
32-callber bullet had entered ono
aide of Miss Blystone's neck, plough
ed through and came out on the oth
er. Kane was apprehended some
time later In the mountains and was
hurried to Jail to escape the crowd
of Infuriated people.
Kane took Mis3 Blystono out driv
ing and asked her to marry him. She
refused and he pulled a revolver
from his pocket, pointed it at the
woman and fired. Miss Blystone
grasped tho smoking weapon and
I wrested it from the grasp of her
i rejected suitor. She threw It into
the woods and Jumped from the car
riage. The man followed her and realiz
ing that she would escape him unless
halted he picked up n rock and hit
her on tho head. When Bhe fell to
the ground he rushed to her side
and with the roc'.; tried to bolter
out her brains, bruising her head
and disfiguring her face In a desper
ate attempt to end the woman's life.
With a beer bottle which she se
cured from the buggy Miss Blystone
finally beat Kane off and made her
escape, and with blood streaming
from the wounds in her neck manag
ed to stagger home. The scene of
the shooting was on 13urnside Moun
tain. Kane called at the Blystone home
earlier in the evening and requested
the girl to accompany him. Un
known to her he had a box of bee
under the seat, and after they hud
reached the mountain began to
drink. Miss Blystone is a popular
and well known young woman of
this section.

K O. Dun 6 Co.'s Weekly Keview
of Trade says:
Trade reports continue to Indicate
moderate net gains each week, al
though progress Is Irregular. Some
sect Ions make much better exhibit.-"
than others, the Southwest leading,
while Improvement is slowest at the
East. There is also a similar Ir
regularity In returns from the in
dustries, some occupations gaining
steadily while others proceed erratic
ally. The net re-cult, however, is a
larger volume of business in tho ag
gregate, and comparisons with thla
time last year are especially cheer
ing, when It is considered a year ny,
that all records up to that time are
being eclipsed. More plants have
resumed, wholly or In part, but there
are still many unemployed.
At a further light reduction la
price of Bessemer rig Iron the Pitts
burg market has experienced Increns
ed activity. Most finished steel lines
are quiet, new contracts coming for
ward slowly and for small quantities,
but specification on old orders aggro
gating a fair tonnage. Each week
the production of all the mills In
creases slightly, more plants c onstant
ly resuming, although usually on part
time and with reduced forces.
More Inquiries are received in the
primary markets for cotton goods,
and there Is a hopeful feeling reparol
ing the future.
New England shoe manufacturers
report business quiet since the de
parture of Western wholesalers, and
mall orders are not large. It Is ex

Blind Men Seldom Smoke.
I Blind men seldom smoke. Those
wtio were inveterate smokers In their
Blghted days find that after losing
their sight a pipe or cigar has no
attraction for them. The man who
has no eyes to watch the smoke curl
and drift about his head apparently
has no use for a cigar.
Smoking to the absolutely blind
Is something different from smoking
in the dark. Besides, few persons
smoke In total darkness. Usually
there Is starlight or firelight enough
to enable a man to keep track bf the

M le Had A Good Memory.
"I was at Tampa when a negro
teamster war Instantly killed by an
army mule, and It furnished a good
Illustration of the wonderful memory
that a mule has.
"The negro teamster used to
pound that mule unmercifully. In
stead of using strategy and coaxing
his mule Into submission, he used
to beat It hard enough to kill a
horse. Well, for two months the
teamster didn't drive that mule. But
the mule never forgot him. He
never made any attempt to Injure
his new driver, who knew enough
to treat him decently But one dny
the old teamster came back The
mule remembered him He waited
with as mucn docility and patience
as an ox until he was harnessed, and
then, when the old teamster was off
his guard, he let fly with both heels,
caught that negro in the pit of the
stomach, and stretchel him out as
dead as a hammer. The other team
fter was standing right there by Mm,
but that mule didn't make any at
tempt to kirk him He had Just
been laying for the fellow who wal
loped him two months before, and
when he had finished him he was
satisfied. " Buffalo Horse World.

Married Paslpen And Divorce.
"An odd thing about married
paupers Is that they like to live sep
arate," said a slnule pauper.
"You know how almshouses are
arranged: There's a men's ward, a
women's ward, and a mixed, or mar
tied wurd. Well, the mixed ward Is
always nearly empty. Not that we
lacked married paupers Oh. no. But
the husbands prefer to bachelor It
among the men, and the wives to
old-maid It among the women.
"The older our married paupers
get, the more vehement Is their In
tstencs on separate living.

Eating The Octopus,
At Atlantic City the other day a
fisherman caught an' octopus, a rare
fish in those waters
The octopus which resembled a
frayed and ruined football of brown
leather, was carried home by the
fisherman In a bucket of water.
"What am I going to do with it?"
he said. "Why, I'm going to eat It.
I'd almost as soon eat octopus as
scallops.
"I ani a traveler, and I learned In
Italy and France the octopus' excel
lence You can't give an Italian of
the Riviera or a Frenchman of the
northwest coast, where the fish
abounds, a more welcome dish
"What does it taste like? It tastes
like scallops or like tripe and oys
ters." Phlladelph Bulletin.
