came from many points throughout the
Middle West.

neaied the 100 mark anti the death toll
reached a total of twelve, with scores

Pitch oozing from the cedar blocks
caused the animals to slip and once

home or work to get a bit of cool
breeze if there was any to be found.
The lake was the mecca for thousands

CHECK GIVEN ELECTOR
WHO CAST VOTE FOR
HARRISON IS FOUND
HARRISBURG, July 6. There came
to the state treasury today a curious
reminder of the presidential election of
ISSS, in the shape of a check that was
paid one of the Republican electors
for attendance at the meeting of the
electoral college in Harrisburg on Jan
uary- 15 to compute the vote cast for
president and vice president and cast
their ballots for Benjamin Harrison
and Levi I’. Morton. This cheek, dated
January 15, 1889, was -oven to Peter E.
Buck, of Schuylkill county, an elector,
and was evidently preset ved by him as
a souvenir of the perfoimanee of a
duty of which he was very proud, as
be never cashed it. It was for $27.60,
and was made out on the Cnmmon
wealth Guarantee Trust and Safe De
posit Company, of Harrisburg. and
signed by William Livsey as cashier
for William B. Hart, state treasurer,
both of whom are long since dead.
Buck's executors in going over his ef
fects a short time ago. found the cheek,
and sent it to the Common wealth Tru.-t
Company, one of the state's deposi
toiies in Harrisburg, for collection.
Across thc-face of the check is written
the words: "Elector for Harrison and
Morton. ISS9.”

CLUBS SIDESTEP
SUFFRAGE ISSUE
Time Not Yet Arrived to Indorse
Theory of Votes for Women,
They Decide.
x
SAN FR.XNITSUO. July 6.- Deb
gates to the biennial convention of the
General Federation of Women's Clubs
areldispersing today for their homes.
The final session of the federation
which was held last night decided that
the time had not yet arrived to indorse
the theory of equal suffrage.
After all the resolutions had been
completed Mis. Charles Edison, of Los
Angeles, offered a resolution indorsing
the principle of woman's suffrage. Mrs.
Philip N. Moore, president, immedi
ately ruled the motion out of order.
Mis, Moore asked if the house would
uphold the chair in its decision. The
house did so'. Another effort was made
to bring up the subfeet under a dif
ferent motion and this was again ruled
out of order.
Mrs. Moore, at the request of Mrs.
Frederick Nathan, of New York, ex
plained the position of the federation
on the subject, stating that it was a
function of the federation to educate
the women for citizenship, and that
nothing would be gained by taking this
step and antagonize, club members in
certain parts of the country.
The condition of Mrs. Sarah Decker,
who was operated on yesterday for in
testinal trouble, was said early today
to be favorable. If no complications
arise a speedy recovery is looked for.

and Escapes, But Is Soon
Caught by Posse.
MOUNT PLEASANT, IOWA, July 6.
A thrilling bank holdup by* a sixteen
yeat -old boy amateur bandit.’the shoot
ing of the cashier and the final slaying
of the youthful robber took place at

afternoon the youth entered the hank,
where Cashier F. \V. Hillman of the
Rome Savings bank was casting up his
accounts, and'at the point of a revolver
ordered him to throw up his hands.
The demand was t efused, Hillman
slamming shut the door of the safe.
Immediately the robber shot him In
both arms, scooped up all the money in
sight (about $1,900) and lied, jumping
into a carriage in waiting and drove
rapidly away.
Farm wagons were soon in pursuit
of the fleeing robber. The news was
telephoned to this city, seven miles
west iif Rome, and Sheriff Goe of Hen
ry county organized a posse, which
look up the chase in automobiles.
Tracked to Ravine.
The robber was traced to the Max
well farm north' of Salem, where he
abandoned his horse and buggy. The
trail led from the vehicle into a ravine.
By separating and traveling along
either -ide of the ravine the posse got

"Yes. it takes a good memory and

the stand, as he passed out a box to
a customer, took the quarter and put
the box back without a word .being
passed in the transaction. "i'or in

thing but that particular brand for five

he wanted he'd be insulted.
"I've got more than a hundred regu

them want their cigars so dry the

sore if 1 don't 'pass out a brand-new

"Your case is different from my

the counter. "Bill Is a bartender, In a

"I’ve got another friend there, too.
('all him Charley. Well. Charley was
engaged to old man Jones’ daughter,
and Jones was curious about Charley's
habits. One day he invited Charley to
join him in a drink.
"'Why, Mr. Jones, it’s very seldom
indeed that 1 ever go into a saloon or
drink anything alcoholic,' said Charley.
But I'll join you in a lemonade.’
"They went into Bill’s place. The
old man asked for a bottle of beer, but
Bill didn't take the trouble to ajk
Charley, or even take a look at him.
He just dug down under the bar, set
out a bottle of rye and remarked:
