The story of the crime com­ mitted at Hanover July 17,1891, is one of the most shocking and exciting in irlmlnal annals. Almy had been em­ ployed as a farm hand by Andrew Warden, one of the most substan­ tial citizens of Grafton County. Christie Warden was a teacher in the district school, and had been the object of Almy'a unrequited love. On the 1st of April, 1891, Almy left the Wardens, and a few weeks later reappeared in their neighborhood. On the evening of July 1? Christie, her toother, younger sister and a lady friend were on their way home from Hanover village to the Warden place, about a mile ano a half distant. When passing through what is Known as Vale Temple Almy suddenly appeared, pro­ claimed his identity, and grasping Christie, dragged her through a pair of bars into a ravine and there shot her, almost,In the presence of the other ter­ rified women. His escape, the long search for him, his discovery at last in the Warden barn, and the attack and his capture formed one of the most ex­ citing and remarkable chapters con­ nected with any murder that ha5 oc­ curred for many years in New England.

THE Attorney General of Kansas rendered an opinion for the guidance of the State Insurance Department to the effect that every insurance policy on Kansas property must absolutely be ( written in the State, and that evety i company's agent looking after Kansas j business must reside there. The opin- I ion is based on the non-resident State law, which provides that any insurance ! company authorized to do business by the Superintendent of Insurance is pro­ hibited from allowing any non-residen to issue any policy upon Kansas prop erty. Superintendent of Insurance Snider says that the effect of the opin­ ion will be to compel every company doing business there to establish a State agency in Kansas. At present but one company has such an agency. THE National Editorial Convention is being held at the new Hotel Mecca in Chicago. Delegates began to arrive in Chicago Monday last.

When the wind whistles through these holes a strange melody is produced that makes the Javans feel homesick and romantic. All sorts of bilious and maudlin thoughts travel through their brains while the music is being played by the gale. They get more of the music in Chicago than in Java, as there is a greater euppiy of wind. A remarkable display in the Plaisance is that of feminine beauty.

It represents better than any other exhibit the genius of American Invention. It looks some­ thing like the paddle wheel of a steamer, multiplied, however, a hundredfold. In­ stead of the paddles it bears passenger cars, and when it revolves the passen­ gers get something of the sensation that a fly must have that sits on the side of the cart wheel and feels it re­ volve. The wheel is 264 feet high and 254 feet in diameter. It bears 36 pas­ senger cars, each larger than a railroad coach, and with a seating capacity of 60 persons. When the wheel is "loaded" it contains 2,160 citizens. They are carried up and down like birds sitting in their nest. A model of St. Peter's, of Home, is exhibited. It is of carved wood, coated with a substance in imitation of marble, THE IRISH VILLAGE. snake charmers subdue reptiles and the magicians show their familiarity with the black art.

A S:r«*et of Htamhoul. One of the old streets of Stamboul is reproduced and tenanted with people from that city and from Constantinople, who show pretty much the same sort of entertainment as their Egyp\/ian neigh­ bors.

The fire pump, which has a large capacity, is Blung on poles on the shoulaers of the natives, who trot through the streets astonishingly fa<?t. When they reach the fire the water is supplied them by carriers, who bear leather bags that are refilled from the well as fast as their contents are used up.

Ten tlmbermen were dashed to pieces In the Red Jacket perpendicular shaft of ihe Calumet and Hecia at Calumet, Mich., Sunday uoon. The miners were coming up in the cage to dinner and the engineer hoisted the cage against the timbers of the shaft, when the coupling pin broke and the men and cage dashed downward, over 3,000 feet, to the bottom. The names of the killed are as follows: Allen Cameron, son at Captain Cameron, In charge. James Cocking, single, supporting widowed mother. Andrew Edno, aged 40, married. John Hfoks, single, aged 24. * ' Michael Leavitto. widower. John Odjrerg leaves %¥ Wo wand several chil­ dren. Joseph Pope, leaves widow and one child. Con 8. Sullivan, single, aged 40. James Trevni, leaves widow and three chil­ dren. Robert Wcopia, leave* widow and three cblldrep. Never in the history of copper min- ?ng has so serious an accident occurred. Sunday work in the mine is only done in the line of repairs to the ma hinery and timbering up the wall of the shafts. The ten men killed went down in the morning fo timber the iBlne, had worked all tha forenoon and stepped into the bucket to be hoisted 3,150 feet to the surface to get their dinners. The time consumed In being hoisted is usually but a minute by the. powerful eng nes used. Cause of the Accident. The cause of the accident was a faulty indicator, which did not show the brakeman in charge of the hoisting apparatus when the cage had reached the top of the shaft. Ernst Tulin, the engineer, eays his indicator showed 750 feet more to hoist. He »could not stop the machinery in time, and when the iron car struck the beams at the top of the shaft the coupling pin or the steel wire rope by which the car was suspend­ ed broke, letting the ten occupants of the cage down to a fearful death at the bottom of the shaft, 3,000 feet below. The wife of Joseph Pope, one of the miners, had come to the mouth of the- shaft with his dinner. She saw her husband come up, spoke to him lovingly, but was crazed when she saw the cage dart upward then dror> out of sight. Many pitiful scenes were witnessed at the mouth of the shaft. Most of the Ill-fated men had families and when the first rumor of the awful accident spread wives and children hastened to the scene, hoping that the report had been false, but finding instead that it was only too true and that many of them were widows or orphans. There are two men employed in the mine who are congratulating themselves on escaping the terrible death their comrades met. Twelve men went down into the mine in the morning, but one of them was taken sick and was sent to the surface, accompanied by one of his comrades. Searching* for the Bodies. The mouth of the shaft was closed at once. A searching party went down Caluuiet No. 4 shaft, over a half mile away, and went through the cross-cut or tunnel to search for the remains. Although thousands of miners and others had gathered around the fatal shaft, all were painfully silent The terrible fatality seemed to have over­ awed them. General Manager Whiting and Superintendent Duncan are almost crazed by the awful responsibility which the accident has thrust on them. Did the indicator fall to work, fail to inform the engineer when the cage had reached the surface, as he says, or did he become careless and fail to stop the engine at the proper moment? These are the questions that are being asked and the investigation is expected to de­ termine. The miners demand a rigid investiga­ tion by the mine inspector and by a coroner's jury. vOl still believes WEATHERED THE RUN. of A Milwaukee Bank Secures Plenty Money to Pay Depositors. For the first time in twenty years a Milwaukee bank has been subjected to a run. It was the Plankinton bank that was compelled to meet the on­ slaught of frightened depositors, and it stood the ordeal in excellent style. The heavy depositors in the bank stood by it, and even when the run was in prog­ ress solid business men were calmly making deposits. For an hour or so during the morning the bank had a close call. The representative sent to Chi­ cago to draw funds to the bank's credit missed "the regular train and the bank oflflcials W9re frightened. The messen­ ger chartered a special train, however, and arrived in the nick of tiJhe with something over $150,000 In cash. The special train on the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railroad which brought the money was composed of a locomo­ tive and an express car. It made the run in exactly two hours and fifteen minutes and just four minutes after the train dashed into the depot the money was at the door of the bank. Assistant Cashier Moody, who went to Chicago to secure the funds, was so wrought up by the importanoe of his duty that when the money in his charge was safely in the bank he fell in a faint. The flight of the special from Chicago to Milwau­ kee was fraught with excitement Scarce a hundred yards had been traversed be­ fore the train was running at very nearly full speed, and the run was maintained out of the Chicago yards, the fastest time ever made by a train within the lake city. Once out on the prairie the lever was thrown wide open and there began such a race against time as man never witnessed before. Everything gave way to the special. Even the fast passengers were sidetracked at way stations. Not for a moment dur­ ing th*e entire journey was the speed of the train slacked, except at the railroad crossings and on entering Milwaukee. The scene in the bank was very in­ teresting. Depositors were crowded against the counters, all endeavoring to get In firBt, and prominent men in bank­ ing and business circles weire deliver­ ing short speeches, assuring them of the safety of the bank and their money. Among those who spoke to the crowd Were Gov. Peck, Frank Bigelow, Cash­ ier of the First National Bank* and Frederick T. Day, President of ihe Plankinton Bank.

Waite, of Colorado, who wrot# a letter to President Cleveland charg­ ing the Indian agent with negligence and incompetency and with being prac­ tically responsible for the periodical troubles in Colorado and the Southwest, has supplemented his caustic letter with an interview, in which he scores the present svstem of controlling the Indians.
