MORTON’S SYMPNFHV. “3 He Is Moved to Tours by the Appeal of Murderer Buchanan’s Wife. The last appeal- for Dr. Robert W. Bu- shaman, the wife murderer, who had three times cheated the executioner and who nearly succeeded a fourth time, was made to? Governor Merton by the wife of the condemned man. It was inall ways an extraordinary thing. Day was just breeking.‘1‘ho first streaks of sunlight were shining over the hills at Ellerslie, the Governor’ 5 country place, when a wagon was driven .up the main road. The horse was on a gallop and the driver was urging him on. Through the gate and up the winding carriageway to the Governor’ s house they went and stopped' 1n front of the door. Mrs. Buchanan, the single pas- senger, got out. A valet, the sleep hardly out or his eyes, opened it. ’ “I am Mrs. Buchanan,” said the worn— an. “I must see the‘Governor.” “You ‘ cannot see him,” said the valet. “But I must! Imust! I shall see him!” insisted the woman. “Madam,” said the valet, “the Gov- ernor has not arisen yet. He must not be disturbed. You cannot see him.’ “Oh, I must see him!” moaned the woman, ~- beginning to cry. , “I can’t wait; I must see him now. Don’t you knew that every minute is precious? Don’t you know?” . The valet leaned against the door as if he feared she would push it in. , “I don’t think,” he. said, “that the Governor will see you at all. Has he not refused to see you?" ' “But Imust! I must! He must see rue!” cried Mrs. Buchanan. “I shall stay till I See him. I must see him right away, even if I have to go to his room! Every minute now is valuable!” And a £1 esh shower of tears came. The valet’s heart was melted. "Well,” he safd, at last, “If you are Mrs. Buchanan, I’ll see if the Governor will see you. Come inside.” The Governor, it appears, was awak- ened by the talk between the valet and the woman at the door. - He stood in an upper hall when she was admitted. He asked if it was Mrs. Buchanan, and then said: I “Tell herI will be right down. ” ' Twenty minutes later he stepped into the reception room wheie Mrs. Buchan- an was. “So, Mrs. Buchanan,” he said, “you have come to see me again, have you ” Mrs. Buchanan fell on: her knees at his feet and began to plead as only a woman can plead, again and again the Governor said: “I am sorry for you, very sorry, but I am afraid you must bear this great trouble now. Nothing can be done.’ She seized his hands. Her body shook with her sobs. She begged f01 justice; she protested over and over again that her husband was not guilty. She plead- ed for mercy, the tears streaming down her face. She bowed her head to the floor. She moa’ned in the agony of her despair. . ~ ' The Governor, seated in a chair in front of her, tried to soothe her. He had not an unkind word for her, though he had forbidden her to see him again, and had told her it would be useless. He told her once more that he pitied. her. She says: ‘ He did pity me, for he cried while I begged for mercy.” He told her that he would aid her in any manner he could. If she needed money, he would give it to her. There was nothing in reason he would not do for her, save one thing, and his duty for- bade that. He talked with her about her life and her marriage to the Doctor. He tried to encourage her. She protest- ed her husband’s innocence again. “It is useless,” he said. “I cannot interfere now. I .would do it if I could —if my duty .would allow it. But it will not. This case has gone to the highest courts. It has been passed up- on by the best authorities in this State. They have passed judgment upon it and I cannot interfere again. If I can help you now, or if I can help you in the ~ future, come to me and I will do it, but I cannot interfere in your husbahd’s case.” “You can,” she persisted. “You can, you can! It is in your power to spare his life—spare him!” “I cannot do it; I must be faithful to my duty,” was the Governor’s reply. Then the 'interview came to an end, with Mrs. Buchanan on the verge of collapSe. Modern Arms and Gettysburg. At Gettysburg, in J uly,’ 1863, had the Federal troops been armed with the rifle now being issued to the United States infantry, and with the pi esent im- :proved field guns, Pickett’s heroic band in the charge on the third day would have been under fire from start to finish, and the fire of massed infantry, com- bined with breech loading cannon, would probably have destroyed every man in the assaulting lines.‘ Pickett’s right, when formed for the charge, was 1,800 yards from the Union lines; and the magazine rifle sight'is graduated, it will be remembered, to 1,900 yards. With the weapons then in use the Federals did not open with artillery on the charging Southern troops until they were within 1,100 yards of their lines, and their in- fantry did not fire until they we' a with- in a much closer range. In the recent war between China and Japan, it was stated that a. ball fired from a Japanese rifle called the Murata, similar to the United States magazine rifle. struck a Chinese three-quarters of a mile away in the knee and crushed it to atoms.— Century.

TELEPHIONING ALONG THE 00116.0. 11...... Withwmetho Natives Are Able to Communicpto‘Long Distances. Capt. FiV8.: a Belgian explorer, says that the people of the Congo have a on— rious and interesting method of telea phoning. For a long time he refused to believe that the natives really had the- power to communicate with others at a distance, though articles had been sent to him in answer to suCh‘communica- tions. . 6 At length, "one day, journeying'on the river by pirogue, and being about fifty miles from Basoko, be determined, in- stead of stopping, to press on to the vil- lage. Then one of his people offered to telephone to the village that the party would reach the place toward evening and would like to have supper prepared on arrival. A native with a drum then began to beat it after a peculiar fashion, and pres- ently announced that he had heard a re- ply. He then rolled the drum'for some time and tranquilly returned wt0“ his paddle. Capt. Five waited with much interest to see whether his approach was expected. and was astonished as he neared Basoko toward evening to recog- nize on the bank one of his fellow ex- plorers, Lieut. Verellen. A file was burning ashore and a sup- per was being made ready. Capt. Five, after greeting the lieutenant, inquired eagerly how he had learned of the ap- proach of' the expedition. The lieuten- ant replied that the news had been brought some hours before by a negro, who said that a white man was approach- ing by way of the river and would need supper. ’ The drum used by the natives for this purpose is a. small but noisy affair of wood. It is constantly employed in com- municating short distances, in order to save time and trouble. In this instance there had evidently been relays of drummers along the whole fifty miles from the point where the original signal was given to near Basoko. are able, with their drums, torsignal messages of considerable length. This particular instance is recorded in La Flandre, a. Belgian publication. A Sure Remedy in every-case and every kind of Hemorrhoids or Piles is SalVa-cea (rma- -MARK).
