The excitement incident the Dreyfus court martial at Bennes is intense one man lies wounded, and may die, while the leader, of the anti Semite faction, with a number of his followers, is barricaded in a house, and has defied the officers for some time. All that the latter have so far been able to do is to send messengers to endeavor to induce him to surrender, and, when he refuses, offer excuses for his stubbornness by saying that he is wearied by the loss of sleep, and go so far as to insure him freedom from molestation during the night that he may secure the much needed rest. The French idea of official duty is a strange thing when it practices such courtesy to one transgressor, while It will confine another to solitary confinement for five years on the most fragile evi dencie.

There is hardly any doubt that the attempted murder of Labor! was the result of a plot oxTthe part of Dreyfus' enemies to get possession cf certain papers which Labor! was supposed to have on his person, and which they ieared would accomplish their own ruin. This was shown by the looting of the pockets of the wounded man and the desperate tfTort to get possession of his jnZzt.

Th first picture that we have seen of the alleged Roy Jones, who has a mania for abducting girls was produced by the Wabash Times.

The pecu liarly sneaking.hang dog expression ought to warn anyone that he is not to be trusted.

I8t3 Markle flour gives best results. I cf th3 csasca, tut a izz. k. I a a of 4 Electrically Ileatfl Elade Eon the Work rrlth S'estn. It has always been a problem how to get tte wool ofS tLe Bkins of the many millions of Eheep which, are annually slaughtered in Australia, South America and on th.e continent of Europe.

An electrical apparatus for the purpose has been patented, says the St. Louis Globe Democrat. The invention, the first idea of which, is said to have been struck by a lady, consists of an electric cautery or fleshing knife, by which the wool may be shorn from the skin rapidly and without injury either to the wool or the pelt. The knife has a very ehort and very wide blade, which is fitted on handle electrically connected. To remove the wool the cautery Is simply pushed along' the surface of the skin.

The red hot knife instantly mows down the "wool, and the speed at which the work can be done is, governed by the deftness of the operator. The heat need not affect either the skin or the wool, provided that the knife is properly manipulated. With a few hours' practice, it is estimated, a girl can dewool from eight to a dozen skins per hour, and the cost of the current should be not greater than one cent for 18 hours' work. The advantages of the system are that the wool need not be injured by lime, chemicals or other deleterious influences, and the mere singing Of the end of each fiber ia imperceptible. It is claimed that the skin, which presumably has been sun dried in Australia or South America, immediately after the slaughtering of the sheep, is in a more perfect condition for the purposes of the tanner.

The estimate of the cost of such operations shows the great economy of the electrical method of de wooling. It now costs the fellmonger eight cents a skin to wet down, limestone, or sweat the akin into condition for the puller, and the pulling wages range from 11 cents to 17 cents per dozen skins. MARTIN LUTHER'S RHfGT' EimsasreBBemt BjukA th. Great Reformer Co mm km to Usrht lm Mmrwmr Martin Luther's historical engagement ring has been found, and in the possession of a Norwegian peasant woman, Sigrid Hansen Aim, in Sonder hordland, in Norway. How It came to Norway and when Is unknown, as for centuries the ring has been an heirloom in the family of all the women having the name of Sigrid.

Two years ago the German state historical museum had advertisements inserted in continental newspapers. Slowly the news found its way to Norway and was read by the Norwegian peasant woman. The description, of the ring tallied exactly with the ring in possession of the woman, says a London pa per. Consul Jens Gran, in Bergenwas notified, and at once offered the woman 800 kroner for the ring, Which was re fused. This is the description given in Norwegian papers of the ring found: "It is of silver, considerably worn and badly scratched.

Set in the ring is a red pearL to represent a drop of blood of Christ. On trie outside of the ring is engraved Christ on the cross, and sever al of the subjects of the crucifixion as the ladder, the lance, and the let ters J. N. S. J.

(Jesus Nazarenus Bex Judeorum). On the inside of the ring is engraved 'Martino Luther Catharine von Boren 13 7 1525 and the faint outlines of two hearts. Through the German minister to Sweden and Norway every effort will be made to induce its present owner to permit it to become the property of the uertnam historical museum. LOVE HIM. A.

Street Caj Ceaiaetor Wtto Cktrai HI Pares with His Mellow Wklitie. There is a conductor on the Indiana avenue trolley beloved by every pas senger who travels on the line. He is no better looking than other conductors. Nor is he more polite. Nor does he allow people to ride free.

But he can whistle with his fingers, and the patrons of the line love him, says the Chicago Inter Ocean. One of the annoyances of street car travel is the whistle used by the con ductors or giving signals to the no toman. The conductor goes along on the footboard with his whistle within few inches of a passenger's ear. He wants to stop the car. He blows on the instrument of torture that's what the nervous people call it that he carries between his lips.

A shrill blast that would wake the dead Is the result. The car stops. Then he blows two The car starts. Of course a man can get used to almost anything In this vale of tears, but there are many who feel like jumping out of their skins whenever that blast sounds ia their ears. It is very different with this conductor, who learned when a boy to whistle on his fingers.

He wears no whistle of nickel or celluloid between his Hps. When he wants to stop or start a car he crooks his first finger; sticks the crook In his mouth and gives out a mellow note that is celestial music compared with the din of a nickel whistle. Consequently all the passengers love Mm, 'f Forsrot He Was GeaeraX.
