Cheyenxk Mills, Col.. April 17
Saturday while X. B. llcConiull and
John Jlotrison, two youths from Iowa,
were passing the house Frederick Baker,
live miles north, the latter commanded
them to stop. They piyiug no attention
to the orders Baker fired upon them a
shotgun loaded with slugs. The driver
waa uninjured, but AlcConnell atd Mor
rison were riddled with shot and died in
five minutes. Baker waa arrested, and
tonight fifty armed men went to the jail
demanding that the deputy sheriff turn
the prisoner over to them. The officer
refuso to do ao; but the men say they
are determined and will ta!;e Baker out
and hang him before morning, if they
have to tear down the jail to get him.
Ti.o MfibibiIit'us are that the murderer
will be hanging to & telegraph pole be

accident near Sacramento, Ky., in which
Walter West, aged 17, was hot and
fatally injured by his cousin, Eddy

laid down on the porch with the gun by
his side. Gwynn came up and pulled
the gun away, "West holding to the
ninz.i.-. When he wti etched tho boy's
arm to full length, Gwynn asked his

Tho Coin Collecting; Craze.
"The coin collecting craze begins In
curious ways," said B. If. Collins, of the
treasury department. The foremost colj
lector of the United States, who died rn
cently, beeamo a collector through an
accidental desire to possess a big cent of
the year of his birth, 17!)i). His collection
xvassold after his death at auction. It
brought $20,000, and it would today real
ize double that sum. Tho cost of rare
coins increases year by year, and the in
crease in values during the past five years
has been over 5J0U per cent. Coins must
not only be rare, but they must be in good
condition, and the best are hard to obtain.
A perfect coin of some dates are as rare
as a Maud S., a peacliblow vase or a Koh
lnoor dlauiond. "
"What are the leading specialties of the
United States collector??"
"Three-fourths of the collectors of tins
country collect United States and colonial
coins, and I iie others collect miscellaneous
coins, ancient and modern, foreign and
United States. Some collect only certain
peries, some only gold coins, some silver
and tome only cupper. My specialty Is
copper cents, lis coins are the rarest to
bo found in perfect condition, nnd the val
ues tf copper coins are more certain. It
is very hard to find line specimens. The
cents and half cents have circulated to
ku.r.lj fin extent that they have become
worn, disfigured, black a Act smooth, and
rare cents in good condition are thus very
costly. Washington Cor. New YorU
Worid.
Choosing a Ptijsiclan.
"Doctor," said a prominent scientist to
aa equally prominent physician, "when
you are sick, who attends you?"
"Why do you askr-" replied the doctor.
"Oh," was the response, "I want to
find out whom the doctors select to at
tend them; that man shall be my physi
cian." But shun the man who habitually
speaks ill of his professional brethren; lu;
is not a generous man, probaldy nor a
just one. Shun also the man who has a
sure cure for every ill, and is always ready
to promise that lie 'can help you; who
boasts of his wonderful cures, and never
owns a failure; who is always talking
about his cures, and telling what a heavy
business he does. His stock in trade is
bluff and brag. And shun the positiva
man, who has a ready answer to every
question, who can tell exactly what the
matter is, how it was caused, and what
ths result will be. He knows too much
to be honest. Medicine is not a positive
science, and where there are so many ele
ments of uncertainty, it is not in human
nature to know the end from the begin-ning.-r-Demorest's
Monthly.
The Slav's to?e of Music.
The Bohemian Dvorak relates in an au
tobiographical sketch that in his country
every child must study music. "The law
enacting this is old; it was once repealed,
but is in force again. Herein I consider
lies one great secret of the natural talent
for music in my country. Our national
tunes and chorals came, as it were,, from
the very heart of the people, and beautiful
things they were. I intend some day
writing an oratorio into which I shall
introduce some of these chorals. Tho
Slavs all love music. They may work all
day in the fields, but they are always sing
ing, and the true musical spirit burn
bright within them. How they love tho
dance, too! On Sunday, when church is
over, they begin their music and dancing,
and often keep it up without cessation till
early in the following morning. Each
village has its band of eight or ten
musicians." Home Journal.
Exercise for Heart nisease,
The mistake is frequently made of ad
vising subjects of heart disease to keep
absolutely quiet. This 13 all wrong.
Exercise in moderation is beneficial, and
protracts the course of the disease. The
muscular substance of the heart, like all
other muscles, needs exercise, and must
have it, otherwise it cannot keep up its
nutrition to the highest point possible.
Indeed, Professor Oertel goes so far as to
recommend mountain climbing a3 the best
form of exercise for these cases. It may
be that this id going a little too far, but
there can ho no question as to the benefits
to bo had froai moderate exercise in this
class of cases. Globe-Democrat.
Newspaper by rhotosraphy.
Books are reproduce.! in this country :

C'hcaply as to xell lor one half the price of
ivpriuts by the usual type methods tho
Eucycloiieditt I'ritannlea, of which seven
teen volumes have been issued, lacing the
most important work thus far photo
graphically reproduced. ly chance it was
iiseovered that the gelatine plate, front
which the electrotype is made in this pro
cess, could be printed from directly, giv
ing a larger number of good copied than ;
the hardest electrotype. The New York '.
Evening I'o. t now nays the most recent
development in this direction, and one '
which has scarcely been foreseen untd
very recently, is the proposed use of the
gelatine proces.-j of printing for newspaper
work.
A western inventor has been engaged
for some time in tin experiment, which
aims at nothing less than the entire elim
ination of the compositor for book work
and even newspaper work. The process
is virtually that already followed by tho
firms which reproduce En-.di.sh works by
photography, but instead of photographing
a printed page, it is now projHtsed to
photograph from type written pages, nnd
reducing the plate nt tho same time to the
Fize of ordinary print to place the result
ing gelatine plate upon sprinting press
and use it instead of the electrotype made
from the metal types. The late Col.
ltichard Howe, the veteran press inventor,
in reviewing the development of the print
ing press during his lifetime, said: "I
have some idea that the next jump will
bo in the direction of photographing the
newspaper upon the sheet of paper as it
ilies through tho press. I don't know
how such a thing can be done, but with
the instantaneous process of lightning
photographs some genius will use it for
the newspapers." He did not live to see
any experiment made in the direction of
nctural photography of newspapers, but
there seems to have been something al
most prophetic in his suggestion of pho
tography for tho newspaper of the future.
