More students " In .Guatemala have been shot to death for criticising' the administration or President. Estrada Cabrera. The, facts . surrounding the sacrifice of the-r lives , hve . been 'kept so profoundly, secret ths? ev in Guatemala. City, where the i1??: Jii. tht cracked out, their I deaTh-knell were heard sunrise one morning, not one man in a thousand et knows of what took place. . The storv was brought to this city ' today on the ateamer Sao. Juan. rerS claiming that C. U Vucanovich, a Khant, anRd Dr.Grlmler a P"" physician, both of Acapulco, were au thority for the news.' Both of these ; men were, passengers on the San Juan from San Sose de Guatemala to , Aca pulo, and they showed no hes Itancy in neakina of the death of three well-. knownftudenS of the Owtamala capi tal, the Bhooting taking plc auout ' three weeks ago. - ' Cabrera, Dictator. Since the shooting of several J of students in Guatemala some months ago by agents of Cabreras govern ment, as- a result of adverse criticism of the administration, the people of the little republic, including the ?ore en lightened students of the colleges, have been more than ordinarily re"cent In discussing public affairs, narUoularly If the discussion, took the form ot criti cism. But less than a month ago, at a secret meeting held by aome of the students, resolutions condemning- Ca brera's administration were adopted, the signers having felt humiliation over the attitude assumed by the outside ' world toward their country, In conse quence of the circulation of stories showing Cabreras arbltrarx style of D-nvarnmont Two days after the secret meeting of ' Via tiii.nH th of the vounir men who were ringleaders at the meeting were quietly arrested knd taken before a board made up from some of the principal oiticiais oi iwi i,u;i., ment. Nobody knows what took place at that Inquisition. It Is only known that nine shots rang out at sunrise the ' next morning from the confines of the Cunrtel, and that tile students are no longer In Guatemala. ,- - Passengers arriving on the Ban Juan say that there- is little Improvement In the political situation In Guatemala but that the country la In better com mercial condition than for several years past, though the rate of exchange is still hlgh.A very noticeable thing Is the fear OTfflclals, this condition of things being qpmmon among all classes. Not one word Of criticism of Cabrera or his metnods la heard, even in a whisper. It lsWorth a man s life to talk, and once a man is taken .under . rrest-well, the r urates and the ' Jefe de Pollcla have, their orders, , should the victim make anj effort to escape. . " " Countries Prosperous. ,. t Minlnr Enrlner D. T. Baker, one of the San Juan's passengers, reports that Nicaragua is apparently in the - beet condition of all the Central American States, though every one of them is mora prosperous than for some., time Nicaragua,--, says Baker, has taken all : the former guards from railroad trains and points lately policed, and that-he appears to be relying Implicitly upon the good intentions of the United States aa the preserver of the peace In Cen , tral America. Guatemala also seems o have faith In Uncle Sam's good in tentions, but this Is not the case In Costs, Rica- and Salvador, at least to ao reat an' extent.

J. One of the most remarkable discoveries In medical his tory in connection with the source of the spread of typhoid fever has Just fceen brought to light as the result of an lnvestlgatloiuby officers of the pub lic health and marine hospital service Into a recent outbreak of that disease In Georgetown, or , West Washington, I. C. ' v ' The investigation disclosed the fact that a woman milker at a neighborhood : dairy who had typhoid fever 1 years ago: still throws off vlrlK typhoid fever bacilli ,and was the responsible agent In spreading the disease. With one exception, this is the first considerable outbreak of typhoid fever in ine united states traced tnrough : milk to such a carrier. A. peculiar feature In connection with the case Is that the examination devel oped large numbers ot typhoid bacilli although the woman apparently was en joying goaa neaun. Surgeon-General Wyman says an im portant source of the disease has been developed and one which heretofore has 1 not been-duly recoanized. i The case just discovered Is deemed of medical interest to. neaitn loriicers in tracing obscure sources of typhoid fever outbreaks. General Wyman states that ' this ' case - establishes the fact that at least 2 per cent of all the recovered cases of ty phoid fever become bacilli carriers for a longer or shorter period, even -While otherwise enjoying good healtn.

This chastenlnr had already prophesied itself by Democratic con gressional majorities In 1874, 187$ and again in 188Z. Now the chastening pro cess ifas to extend Itself even to the White House. Republican Convention.- The Republican national convention met in Phicmro on Julv 2. There was the usual number of candidates, but the overwhelming sentiment of the Re publican electorate was for the nomina tion of James (i. Blaine, who had been. in the popular estimation, robbed of the presidency In previous campaigns, much as had Henry Clav in the earlier days or tne republic it win oe rememoereu that the term of President Arthur was expiring. It will also be remembered that Arthur was made vice-president under Garfield, not bocause of any par ticular presidential training or partic ular presidential qualifications, -but mainly because Roscoe Conkllng needed balm for his wounded feelings when the Grant third term movement collapsed. It will be remembered again that Ar thur had been elevated from the collec torshlp of the port of New Tork to the vice-presidency and that he had entered the White House by the door of fate, following the assassination of Garfield. That he made a respectable president and a considerable decree of success cannot be denied, and yet It could scarcely have been expected that a man of so little presidential experience could have made himself his party's leader in so short a time as-had elansed . between Garfield's assassination and the Chicago convention. Besides it was not cus tomary to renominate vice-presidents who bad eueeeeded to the presidency by death. Furthermore, Arthur had In curred the disfavor of many Republican lender, bv reconstruct lnr the Garfield cabinet with Grant Republicans, and still more by vetoing a. river and harbor bill carry an 18,000,0'bo appropriation. Arthur never figured aa a potential pos sibility to succeed himself. There was stronely opposed to Blaine s nomination an able group of Republicans who fav ored 6enator Geofge Edmunds and who forked hard, to bring about his nomination, but ' to no avail. Blaine was nominated on the fourth ballot and with him General John A. Liogan, Illi nois candidate for the presldenoy, was nominated for second place. The an nouncement of Blaine's nomination was followed bv one of the most extraordi nary demonstrations ever witnessed in a convention hall. At last, it was said, the leader of the Republicans had re ceived the nomination which, ft was be lieved, scheming politicians had denied him la 187 and egairi in 1880. ; - Democratic Convention. Tha Democratic national' convention also met la Chicago on July 8.. The call of the convention was among other things, en invitation - to Republicans who were dissatisfied, with the Blaine nomination to Join In the Democratic triumph-, which was already prophesied.'

They were John P. St. John of Kansas, nominee of the prohibition party, and General Benjamin F. Butler of Massachusetts, the Greenback labor candidate. Nominally the chief issue of the cam paign was the tariff question, the Re publicans advocating high duty and the Democrats proclaiming, for a reform ) the existing schedule But the perso al Issue was really the only question involved. Never was a campaign marked by more 'bitter personal denun ciation of the candidates': Probably no campaign canard ever became more famous than the slogan of "Rum, Rom anism and Rebellion," which was filing out against Blaine among the Irish Catholics of the United States the Sun day before election. As a matter of fact this slur on Catholicism had never been made by -Blaine at all, but wss merely made in his presence, and when he refused to correct It the Democrats declared he sanctioned it, and thus the story started. Throughout the canvass Cleveland re mained ouletlv at home, and left others to do the campaigning. Blaine, how ever, started from the east In AugUHt and traveled for five weeks, making from 10 to 16 speeches a day. The vote of New York decided the presidential contest Cleveland carried the state by the small plurality of 1,147 In a total of nearly 1,000,000 votes, and thus 1,000 votes elected him president of the United States. The electoral "vote stood, Cleveland, 219; Blaine, 182. Blaine's defeat by so narrow a margin after so long a struggle for the presi dency was pathetic. A change of 600 votes in New York state would have made him president. Blaine was sorely disappointed at the outcome. His case was strangely similar to that of his Il lustrious predecessor, Henry Clay, 'Who, Jlke Blaine, felt that his narty had re fused him a presidential nomination when victory was -sure, and had only given It to him when the seat was a heritage. -3 NEW BOOKS FOR THE LIBRARY K , . a The following new hooks may be ex amined at the public library during this wkk ana win do eaqy xor circulation Monday, November 2: , BIOGRAPHY.

Connesvllle. Pa., Noy. 2. A green moon, which turned to a deep red and then waa partially eclipsed In shadow, startled residents of this city at 1:10 o'clock this morning. People climbed to the roofs of their houses to watch the phenomenon, and a cry went down the main street that the world was com ing to an end. . , Many were frightened into hysterics, women hugrlng their children and utter ing wild Bchieks. One man telephoned to Pittsburg, bidding his relatives good bye, v As the moon rose higher the Sliver light turned gradually to orange and then to deep red, which alarmed those who gazed at It Suddenly, shortly after 4 " w Kit f ,V hdmh ' - E No Deals-r No Schemes No Prize Packages Sbach FiVe for 25c $2.50 Per Box of 50 midnight, the color of the light changed, and then became a green baixe shade, as it It were screened by, a swiftly moving comet.
