LEGENDS OF
Eyee are the most certain reveal ere
of the criminal nature Many an ex.
pert detective tells a criminal by just
ene glance—not at him. but from him.
Tne criminal eve varies greatly in set-
tinfc. but not so much in color.
' Sometimes it is deeply placed In the
head, as if it tries to hide, fearing the
result of its own involuntary revela-
tions. Sometimes it is bulgy, pro-
trusive like a frog s and heavy lidded.
Such eyes in connection with some
other signs, denote treachery, men-
dacity. and general cruelty.
Of the criminal eye there are many
remarkable anecdotes. The murderer
Eranceeconi had little about him to
indicate the criminal. To most people
he rendered himself companionable by
facetiousness and easiness of man-
ners.
Years before his crime a young girl
—afterwards the Countess dell Roc-
ca—who had never left home, and
lacked experience of life, recoiled
from him violently when introduced,
nnd refused to endure his presence.
When questioned why she behaved
thus, she answered: "If that man has
not already murdered people, he will
do so.” The girlish prophecy very
soon came true, and when the scient-
ist Lombroso Inquired by what sign
she had foretold his character, she re-
plied: "The eyes; I saw him in his

BRING MEMORY OF THE PAST
Humanity Inspired by Songa of Birds
■nd Noises of the Cricket and
the Katydid.
Country Life In America says a
carefully trained ear and mind are
Indispensable to enable one to detect
and to discriminate readily from the
general insect medley any particular
species of musician.
As with birds and their songs, much
of the charm and pleasure to be got-
ten from insect music depends on the
emotional coloring associated with it.
Wo are enraptured with the notes of
the pewee in spring, or the earliest
piping of the frogs, not because these
sounds in themselves possess any in-
trinsic sweetness, but because they
recall endearing memories of many
fc*PPF. hopeful springtimes. They are
•i^nys the harbingers of another ver-
dant season. Their plaintive notes
add to our minds an emotional warmth
and sunshine. They awaken for us
,gn inner, subjective springtime.
In a similar way the crickets and
kgtydids gladden and inspire us with
their music in proportion as tbeir
notes have become associated in our
minda with the emotional coloring of
put memories.

Sum •Tone'- Mimlcr Case.
This afternoon at 12:30 o'clock
(he attorneys had finished 'arguing
the case against Sam Jones, the
negro charged with the murder of
Eddie Jones. Judge Pearson (barg-
ed the jury goon after court recon-
vened this afternoon. Yesterday
there was some delay in securing
witnesses for the defense and the
argument of the case was not en
tered into until this morning, after
one witness had been introduced by
the state.
Yesterday afternoon one of the
principal witnesses was the defen-
dant, Earn Jones. He admitted every
essential detail that was contained
in his confession given Jn writing
to B. F. C,afford soon after the
killing Friday, August 16th. He
said, that he meant, to kill Eddie
Jones, his divorced wife, because
she would not agree to marry him
again, that, he was determined if he
could not live with her no one else
should and that he told her the
same. He asserted that he at first
attempted to fight, the woman with
a pick and hi|t her on the arm with
it but she got it away from him.
Then he got his knife but she. also
took that away from him. After
this he choked her unconscious and
then hit her two blows with an ax.
Prince Childs, an o)d negro man,
who stayed at the house with the
woman, testified relative (o Jones
visiting the house on Thursday
night previous to the killing.
Alonzo Holland, a negro man 22
years of age, testified that be was
at, the house with Eddie Jones when
the defendant came Thursday night.
Holland had been visiting the
woman for about two months and
for about a week prior to toe time
she secured a divorce from Sam
Jonqp, The deceased was about 45
years old,
Assistant County Attorney Oaf
ford was the first, to speak this
morning and after E. W. Neagle,
counsel for the defendant spoke
County Attorney Cal T. Freeman
made a speech. Both of the attor
ncys for the state affirmed that the
Jury should return a verdict of
murder in the first degree accord
ing to the law and evidence in the
case. Mr. Neagle asserted that the
defendant should not „ l>“ charged
with a more serious crime, than
manslaughter or .murder iii the sec-
ond degree, ,
Towards the close of Mr. Free
man's remarks he made the state
nietlt that the negro citizens of this
county are entitled to eqdal Justice
as any' other citizens. He said that
negroes are hanged for murdering
white people, therefore in this case
where the defendant . is charged
with murdering a negro woman
thee should ha np ditferepce in the
eyes of the law. Mr. FrAeman re-
marked that this was the last ap-
peal that ha expects to make to a
jury In behalf of the state

CHURCH BELLS
Legendary lore is tilled with strange
stories of bells, many of them a pecu-
liar mingling of myth and truth.

THE RAILWAY
HAPPENINGS
M. E. Ingalls 70 Years Oltl,
Cincinnati, O., Sept. 6.—Melville
E. Ingalls, former president of the |
"Big Four" system and for many!
years one of the leading railway ex-
ecutives of the country, reached his
Brenckburne, in Northumberland, used ! ’*r‘verry **
(oay. Mr. iitgalls, like so many oth-
er men who have risen to eminence
to be pointed out by old people, who
said they bad been told when they
were young that a great treasure had
been burled there. When at last this
"treasure" was exhumed It proved to
he the fragments of the bell of the
priory church, which stood in ruins
near by. According to the legend—
and It is one which may well be true
the bell's last resting place can thus
be accounted for: A party of moss-
trooping Scots, bent on plunder, were
seeking far and wide to discover the
priory. But It lay In a clert between
the wooded banks of the Coquet, con-
cealed from view from the higher
lands about It. The mosstroopers, ex-
ceedingly wroth, at last give up the
search in despair, and the monks,
deeming themselves safe at last, by
way of thanksgiving for their deliver-
ance, rang a peal upon the bell. I’n-
luckily, the sound of the bell reached
the* Scots in the forests above, and
with this as guide they found the
priory, which they sacked and burned.
The priory bell presumably fell to the
ground during the conflagration, and
was eventually burled.
To this day the choristers of Dur-
ham cathedral ascend the tower, on
l he eve of the feast of Corpus Christ!,
and sing the Te Deurn. This cere-
mony is in commemoration of the
marvelous extinguishing of a tire on
that night, in the year 1429, tour hun-
dred and eighty-three years ago. At
midnight the monks were at prayer
when the belfry was struck by light-
ning and set on fire. All night the
flames raged and until the middle of
the following day. But for all that
the tower escaped serious injury, and
the bells were not damaged at all.
These bells are not the same as those
which now call the Inhabitants of the
city to worship, for in the registry of
the Church of St. Mary-ie Bow, Dur-
ham, which records the burial of one
Thomas Bartlet in 1632. a note Is add-
ed to the effect that "thys man did
caste the abbey bells the summer be-
fore he dyed."
Buried somewhere beneath the soil
of the graveyard of Etchfnghara
church, in Sussex, lies, according to
the legend, a peal of bells Intended
in America, is a product of a New
England farm. He was born and ed-
ucated in Maine and was a practic-
ing lawyer when, in the early 70s,
he b'gau his railroad career as re-
ceiver .of the old Indianapolis, Cin-
cinnati and' Lafayette road. By a
series of reorganizations and consol-
idations he put the railroad and its
successor, the C. L, St. L. and C.
on a sound footing. In addition to
his connection with tue "Big Four,
Mr. Ingalls served for more than
ten yeafs as president of the Chesa-
peake and Ohio road.

once upon a time for the tower, which
still has only a single bell to call the
faithrul to prayer. As far as can be
ascertained, the story Is as follows: lu
the early middle ages, when the
church could be approached by water
as well as by land, a certain valiant
knight wished to present to it a peal
of bells. These bells were cast at a7;
foundry many miles away and brought,
to the church by water. They arrived
in safety, but through carelessness or
Inadvertence they were allowed to
slide to one side of the boat during
unloading, and in a few' moments the
vessel listed over and sank, deposit-
ing the bells in the mud at the bottom
of the canal, where they are to this
day. When he heard of this the
donor made a “vow, enchantment, or
spell,” saying that Etchlngbam church
should never have more than one bell
until the peal be had given was
dragged from the bottom by a team of
four milk-white oxen. The white oxen
do not appear to have been forthcom-
ing, and in later times the canal was
filled In. The peculiar fact is that the
church is still only possessed of one
bell.
Old bells bore many quaint legends
graven upon them, such as ejacula-
tions and prayers, and sometimes
quite a little history, as In the case of
(he great bell In Glasgow cathedral,
which bears the following inscription:
"In the year of grace, 1583, Marcus
Knox, a merchant In Glasgow, zealous
for the interest of the Reformed Re-
ligion. caused me to be fabricated in
Holland, for the use of his fellow-
citizens of Glasgow, and placed me
with solemnity in the tower of their
cathedral. My function was an-
nounced by the impress on my bosom:
Me audito, venias, doctrinam sanctam
ut dlscas, and I was taught to pro-
claim the hours of unheeded time.
One hundred and ninety-five years had
I sounded these awful warnings, when
I was broken by the hands of incon-
siderate and careless men. In the year
1790 I was cast Into the furnace, re-
founded at London, and returned to
my sacred vocation. Reader! thou al-
so sbalt know a resurrection, may it
be to eternal life!”
Henry VIII. looked upon bells as a
useful means or addition to his In-
come, and nothing more, and owing
to his vandalism in this direction,
many valuable and beautiful old bells
disappeared with other church prop-
erty to be sold for their value as
metal. Many curious things happened
when these bells were removed w-blch
gave rise to nnnumerable legends. At
Lynn and at Yarmouth ahips carrying
bells to foreign ports foundered and
sank, and the wrecking of a vessel
carrying fourteen of the bells of Jer-
sey at the entrance of 8t. Malo Har-
bour gave rise to the legend that when
the wind blows the drowned bells are
pealing. Sir Miles Partridge, who
won the Jesus Bells of 8t. Paul’s from
King Henry when playing at dice was
shortly after hanged on Tower Hill,
and, perhaps most remarkable of all,
a certain Bishop of Bangor, who, hav-
ing sold the bells of his cathedral,
went to see them shipped, was forth-
with stricken with bllndnest.—Lon-
don Globe.

Forces of Light,
The late Arthur McEwen, a famous
journalist of San Francisco and New
York, was once engaged In a political
fight In the California city In which
the better element was arrayed
against the bosses and tbeir followers,
and the better element was getting
decidedly the worst of it,
’ On election morning McEwen (bet
the bishop of the Episcopal diocese
and the Catholic bishop on the street,
both of whom had been active in the
movement. The Episcopal bishop ask-
ed McEwen how- things looked.
“Very bad!” said McEwen. “I don’t
think we have a chance. I under-
stand they are paying $4 apiece for
votes against us down in some of the
districts. I guess we’re beaten!”
Both bishops were properly aghast
at this iniquity and proceeded on their
wavs. Presently tho Catholic bishop
met McEwen again.
“Don’t be discouraged, Arthur, tne
boy!” he said. “Though It may be
true the forces of darkness are pay-
ing 84 for votes. I have reliable in-
formation the forces of light are pay-
ing 85!”—Saturday Evening Post.

Rainfall and Consumption.
A study of the influence of rain
bearing winds upon the prevalence of
tuberculosis has been made by Dr.
William Gordon, physician to the
Royal Devon and Exeter hospital
After classifying several Devonshire
parishes according to their exposure
to rainy winds, Dr. Gordon searched
out in precisely which parishes the
deaths from consumption during a se-
ries of years had mainly occurred. He
found that the death rate in the par-
ishes exposed to rain bearing winds
was generally twice as high as that
of the parishes sheltered from them.
Further Investigations were conducted
in many other localities, among them
the city of Exeter. The result was
the same. Dr. Gordon declares that
the important point to consider In the
choice of a residence for consumptives
is the matter of shelter from the rain
bearing winds of the locality, exposure
to which is a more serious matter than
altitude, character of soil, or even the
amount of rainfall.—Youths Com-
panion.
