A western university professor predicts that the population of the United States will soon overtake the food supply.

JURIES VIEWS DIFFER Cases of Domestic Wrongdoing 'Which Resulted in Murder and Sensational Features. After a heated discussion of more than eight hours, the jury in the case of Dr. G. K. Boyajian, charged with the murder of his nephew, Harotoon Gostanlan, asked to-be discharged, as they could not agree. Four stood for acquittal. The case started with the murder of Gostanlan in a police court of Detroit by Dr Boyajian, who had chu&ed the arrest of the murdered man and Mr*. Boyajian on a serious charge. The victim and his murderer were Armenians, the former being a nephew of the latter. The trial was sensational, the defense being emotional insanity. The wife testified for the husband, alleging she had been forced to submit to the nephew in the doctor's absence, and under threats of death, had not informed her husband until suspicion and forced confession brought out the story. To questions us to hjs plans in case he is liberated and Ills attitude toward his wife—whether or not he looks forward to a reconciliation— Dr. ^oyajian made no answer. "1 can't discuss that," he said. "I expect my wife will visit me here—1 want to see her very much, but my little girl, she shall never see me through these bars. 1 can't bear the thought cf that." The jury in the case of Michael Burkart. charged with the murder of Robert C. Barrows, whom he shot and kilUij in a broil over the latter's wife, convicted the accused. In this case self-defense was offered as an excuse. Burkart when a guard on the wall of the house of correction flirted with Barrows's young wife, and became intimate with her, the final result being a stcrmy interview, which cost the husband his life. A Glazier Loan. A decree handed down in the Wash tenaw circuit court gives notice of a compromise entered into by the Dex ter Savings bank, which will end one phase of the Frank P. Glazjer lltig;i tion. The suit involved is that in which the Dexter Savings bunk has sought to be given preference on its $25,000 claim against the Glaxier Stove Co. The claim is based on a loan originally secured by a Glazier note, out this paper was later taken uu and replaced by Ave separate $5,000 notes signed by the directors of the stove company, all of whom were members of the Glazier family. When the crash came they were worthless, whereas the original Glazier note would have stood a chance of settlement out of the assets. The bank sued to have the debt declared that of the stove company itself. The decree directs the trustees of the defunct concern to pay the Dexter institution $2,500 out of funds heretofore ordered set aside for use when needed, upon the signing of the bank's waiver of its claim. Want $49,000 Paid Back. The Detroit, Grand Haven & Milwaukee railway has made a demand on the auditor-general for a refund of $49,000 in taxes paid to the state under the gross earnings system of taxation in vogue previous to the establishment of the ad valorem system. Under the decision of the supreme court the company's charter is perpetual, allowing it to pay a tax of 1 r>er cent on its capital stock, but the company paid the gross earnings tax for four years and asks for the difference between the amount paid and the 1 per cent tax of $25,171.40, together with interest since. Asylum Inmate Drowned. The body of H. Lynn Sanders, aged 39, a patient at the Eastern Michigan asylum, was found in the waters of Osmun lake, by J. G. Wells, of Parlucah, Ky., who was casting on the l<\ke. Sanders disappeared from the asylum July t and is believed to have committed suicide. His former home was in Ypsilanti, where he has a father and mother. He had been a the asylum since 1900. No inquest was held. Sa^e the Money. The board of state auditors Is send ing out John L. Boer, of Grand Rap ids, and ex-Representative L. R. Thomas, of Huron, to call on county agents and advise them as to ways to save the prate money. It will br suggested that as far as practicable the agents, when hiring rigs and traveling otherwise at state expense, Arrange matters so as to complete their business in one trip.

The explosion of an over-loaded shotgun whiln hunting near Ypsilanti so mangled Xuah Hayes's left hand that it had to be amputated at the wrist. Hubbardston is to have a big homecoming camp meeting, under the auspices of the local Methodist church, August 3 to 15. Many noted m nisters from all over the state will preach at the meetings. William Andre, the "ex-egg k ng,' twice convicted of swindling, was to have been sentenced at Charlotte, but the case has been again continued till the October term. He is at l.berty under $3,000 bail. Fire destroyed seven ice houses of the'- Wildanger-Klanders Coal & Ice Co. at Flint with most of the city's ice supply. The b'aze was started by tramps. A few hours earlier three private garages were burned, with a $4,- 000 loss. The new boys' building, with a capacity of 100, at the Nazareth academy near Kalamazoo, has been named Barbour hall, in honor of the late Mrs. Betsey Morton Barbour, of Detroit, who was a benefactor of the institution. The safety valve, placed in the Grand Rapids reservoir after the flood of 1900, saved the city a 1 ke experience early Wednesday morning. The water was two fret above the high mark, but the valve carried off the surplus. A bitter feud In the Gypsy camp at Comstock Point has grown out of the elopement of young members of tw< rival bands. The girl's father, it is explained, placed a price of $1,000 on ,her and the lover saved the money by stealing the maiden. Mother Mary Anthony, formerly su ]>erloress of St. Francis' orphan home in Detroit, was elected reverend moth er general of the sisters of St. Joseph, of the Detroit diocese, at the genera! chapter recently held at Nazareth academy, near Kalamazoo. Maria Heydlauff, of Grand Rapids after working as a scrub woman and living most frugally for many years died leaving a $17,000 estate, principally in cash. Nearly all the money is given to the Christian Science church work, the balance for charitable purposes. Two people were killed and nine others injured in a head-on collision between a Chicago, Kalamazoo & Saginaw passenger train and a southbound freight train a mile and a half north of Schultz station shortly after ?> o'clock Thursday afternoon. The wreck is believed to have been the result of a misunderstanding of orders. Seventy per cent of the divorce suits heard and pending in Washtenaw county circuit court have come from Ypsilanti. It. appears that the atmosphere of Ypsilanti is not conducive to domestic happiness, as almost every conceivable cause for app'ication for freedom, from incompat bility to extreme cruelty, is advanced by the contestants. A party of Grand Rapids capitalists, who for several weeks have been going over the wilds along the Boardman river, near Traverse City, have announced that they were investigating the tract with a view of locating a mammoth hotel and bathhouse. The numerous springs n that region are said to possess mineral qualities which will cure rheumatism. Louis Sanderhoof, trustee for the bankrupt Dudley Butter Co., of OWOBso. and E. F. Dudley, will make hi» srm -final report in the case in the United States court in Bay City, but it is probable that a suit will be necessary before the matter can be settlrrl. Dudley carries a large life Insurance and this Sanderhoof is trying to secure for the creditors. Mrs. Clara Connolly, of Grand Rap- IdH, once convicted of killing her husband, and who was recently brought back from the Detroit house of correction ,' where she was serv ng a sentence, for a new trial, will probably be freed. The new trial would cost the county a large amount and aa the woman has already served some time this la thought to be the beat course. m FORCES . | r . . V )"Hl I TMK NleV A M I N O W I N T * TO THE TARIFF BILL ^MOW FKEE « A W MATERIAL. . . , : M d . •»• " . . . . That the S t a n d P a t t e r s Listen to the Reasons of t h e President la N » * in Evidence. President Taft will win hU fight for free or reduced rates of duty on raw materials. Nearly every member of; the .conference on t h e tariff hill conceded this. The Indications are that when the new tariff bill becomes a law tbe ratesc o n - t h e arUulua which, the president desired to come in free will be as follows: Iron ore—free (present rate 40 cents per ton). Oll-i-free«,(now protected, by countervailing duty). Hides—7 1-2 per cent ad valorem; (present rate 15 per cent). Coal—45 cents per ton; (present rate $7 centB per ton). Lumber—probably $1.25 on rough, with «enate rateB on finished. This would be a material reduction throughout the lumber schedule. It is expected that the Philippine section as approved by the subordinate committee will be adopted by the conferees on Monday. It provides for the free admission of 300,000 pounds of wrapper tobacco and 1,500,000 pounds of filler tobacco and 300,000 tons of sugar. With the exception of rice and the limitation placed upon tobacco and sugar all articles "the growth, production, or manufacture of the Philippine islands" will be admitted free. There is no longer any question that the corporation tax amendment will be accepted. Attorney-General Wickersham still has it in his custody, but the draft has been seen by some of the conferees and they have found it to be satisfactory. It will tax the net earnings of corporations organized for profit at the rate of 1 per cent. Some difficulty was experienced in working out the deductions or exemptions, hut it is understood that all of the objections to those features have been removed. ^WIRBLETS. „,»**» *e* w A ^ M $ M f » v « M ^ d S t ^ o r n t , r f-ou I e r £ m ^ j ^ S f l ^ l * > f l * y « < G V K TW\Pffl!a1i t c r w i i t t e o t i T f r a e W i l e d ftot^ * w o * " * " a l i f p ' t o ttr^Httleonfrltest riilfthwjto in H laaM l i Xew Yorkjthi, falj.

As his majesty is at present a refugee in the Russian legation, under British and Russian protection, we request your excellencies to fix a time when hie majesty may receive the deputation." The ex-shah replied through the legation, saying In his message: "His majesty states that having taken refuge In the Russian legation, he has, Ipso facto, abdicated; therefore, he does not wish to receive a deputation which ,comes for the purpose of informing him of the fact." Mohamed All probably will depart shortly for Russia. It is believed that the queen is desirous of accompany ing him, taking with her the crown prince, who is the newly proclaimed shah. Free Hides, Says Fordney. Fordney for free hides is the re markable announcement emanating from the Michigan congressman heretofore regarded as a high priest oi protection; in an Interview he declares himself unequivocally opposed to the beef trust, and says that he is forever and eternally against any protection that is simply for the purpose of creating and conserving a monopoly. "I believe in protection to Ameri can industries," said the Saginaw man, "and I want that protection to be ample; but I am convinced that a high^tariff on certain articles ol commerce on which there Is a monopoly in America will result in ruin for many thousands of worthy people. Leather is one of them." French Like Qompers. The speeches of Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, delivered before the French labor organizations, are aroualpg in tense Interest in labor circles. Tin extreme Socialists bitterly condemn him as a reactionary and scoff at hit big salary, but the moderates have shown much sympathy in his denun elation of the futile political rolt which the French General Confedera tion of Labor is essaying in its revo-| lutionary, socialistic and anti-patriotic campaigns. The moderates express the hope that the French labor organisations will heed Mr. Gompers's words, abandon revolutionary agitation, and devote themselves, like the American organ irations, solely to the advancement oi professional intereita. An Indian View. Krishnavarma, the notorious editor of the Indian Sociologist, writes a long letter from Paris in defense of Dhingra, the murderer of Sir William Wyllie. He denies any complicity rn the assassination, but describes the assassin as a martyr in the cause of Indian independence. He reasserts his doctrine that political assassination is not murder, and avers "That there are even in England some hlgh- •niinded, thoughtful publicists who agree with him." The significance of this letter lies in the prophecy at the end that "There will ere long befall England a catastrophe that will stagger humanity." Race Suicide. German statistics point in alarm to the decreasing birth rate, most plainly observed in Berlin, and a pronunciamento against "race suicide" such as ex-President Roosevelt hurled at the American people is expected from Emperor William.

JlcClurg & Co.; 8 Y N 0 P S I 8 . The story opens with the shipwreck of the steamer on which Miss Genevieve Leslie, an American heiress, Lord Wlnthrope, an Englishman, and Tom Blake, a brusque American, were pausenxera. The three were tossed upon an uninhabited Island and were the only ones not drowned. Blake recovered from a drunken stupor. Blake, shunned on the boat, because of his roughness, bpcanip a hero as preserver of the helpless pair. The Englishman was suing for the hand of Miss Leslie. Blake started to swirn back to the ship to recover what was left. Blake returned safely. Winthrope wasted his last i;»atch on a cigarette, for which he was scored by Blake. Tfieir ttrst meal was a dead fish. The trio started a ten mile hike for higher land. Thirst attacked them. Blake was compelled to carry Miss Leslie on account of weariness. He taunted Winthrope. They entered the Jungle. That night was passed roosting high in a tree. The next morning they descended to the open again. All three constructed hats to shield themselves from the sun. They then feasted on cocoanuts, the only procurable food. Miss Leslie showed a liking for BUke, but detested his roughneas. Led by Blake they, established a home in some iliffs. Blake found a fresh water Bpring. Miss I^eslie faced an unpleasant situation. They planned their campaign. Blake recovered his surveyor's magnifying glass, thus insuring fire. lie started a jungle fire. CHAPTER IX.—Continued. Blake picked a path along the edge of the rill, where the moist vegetation, though scorched, had refused to bum. After the first abrupt-ledge, up which Blake had to drag his companions, the ascent was easy. But as they climbed around an outfitting corner of the steep right wall of the cleft Bliik* muttered a curse of disappointment He could now see that the cleft did not run to the top of the cliff, but through it, like a tiny box canyon. The sides rose Bheer and smooth as walls. Midway, at the highest point of the cleft, the baobab towereri high above the ridge crest, its gigantic trunk filling a third of the breadth of the little gorge. Unfortunately it stood close to the left wall. "Here's luck for you!"' growled Blake. "Why couldn't the blamed old tree have grown on the other side? We might have found a way to climb it. Guess we'll have to smoke out another leopard. We're no nearer those birds' nests than we were yesterday." "By Jove, look here!" exclaimed Winthrope. "1 his is our chance for antelope! Here by the spring are bamboos—real bamboos—and only half the thicket burned." "What of then?" demanded Blake. "Bows—arrows—and did you not agree that they would make knives?" "I'mph—we'll soe. What is it, Miss Jenny?" "Isn't that -a hole in tho big tree?" "Looks like it. These baobabs are often hollow." "Perhaps that is where the leopard had his den," added Winihrope. "Shouldn't wonder. We'll go and see." "But, Mr. Blake," protested the girl, "may there not be other leopards?" "Might have been; but I'll bet they lit out with the other. Look how the tree is scorched. Must have been stacks of dry brush around the hole, 'nough to smoke out a fireman. We'll look and see If they left any soup bones lying around. First, though, here's your drink, Miss Jenny." As he spoke, Blake kicked aside, some smouldering branches and led the way to the crevice whence the spring trickled from the rock into a shallow stone basin. When all had drunk their fill of the clear cool water Blake took up his club and walked straight across to the baobab. I^ess than 30 steps brought him to the narrow opening in the trunk of the huge tree. At first he could make out nothing In the dimly lit interior; but the fetid, catty odor was enough to convince him that he had found the leopards' deb. He caught the vague outlines of a long body, crouched five or six yards sway, on the far side of the hollow. He sprang back, his club brandished to strike. But the expected attack did oot follow; Blake glanced about as though considering the advisability of i retreat. Winthrope and Miss Leslie vera staring at him, wbite-faeed. The light of their terror seemed to spur actions may. rather htrve been due to the fact that bfenaaltatt tk© futility ef flight ftaq) ffUfoa* t*lh%raaiftir«memta "OeT>WWndw th***WR>aos!M he called, and aa they hurriedly obeyed, he caught up a etese and flung if in at the crouching beast. He heard the.mjealle strike with a soft thud that told him he had not missed hii mark, and.he .awuug up. his club in both hands. Given hair a chance he would smash the skull of the female as rbe: had ncmufced her blinded mate. Ope-momeat After another passed, and he stood poised for the shock, tense and scowling. Not so much as a snarl came from within. The truth flashed upon him. "Smothered!" he yelled. The other saw him dart in through the hole. A moment later two limp grayish bodies were flung out into the open. Immediately after Blake reappeared dragging the body ef the mother leopard. "It's all right; they're dead!" cried WlnthrQpe, and he ran forward to look at the bodies. Miss Leslie followed, hardly less curious. "Are they all dead, Mr. Blake?" she inquired. "Wiped out—whole family. The old cat stayed by her kittens, and all Bmothered together—lucky for us! Get busy with those bamboos, Win. I'm going to have theBe skins, and the sooner we get the cub meat hung up and curing, the better for us/' "Leopard meat again!" rejoined Winthrope. "Spring leopard, young and tender! What more could you ask? Get a move on you." "Can I do anything, Mr. Blake?" asked Miss Leslie. "Hunt a shady spot." "But I really mean it." "Well, if that's straight, you might go on along the gully, and see if there's any place to get to the top. You could pick up sticks on the way back, if any are left. We'll have to fumigate this tree hole before we adopt it for a residence." "Will it be long before you finish with your—with the bodies?" "Well, now, look here, Miss Jenny; it's going to be a mess, and I wouldn't / him to dare-defrl Wfasjlo; thoagll fcdT| waved a bloody kifW*above the body of the mpther leopard, and beckoned the girl to conje nearer. . "Hold on *. minute, please," he said. "What did you And out?" Miss Leslie drew a few steps nearer, and forced hnwelf .i» look at the revolting tight. She found it still more dim cult to withstand the odor of the fresh blood. Winthrope was pale and nauseated. The sight of his distress caused the girl to forget her own loathing. She drew a deep breath, and succeeded In countering Blake's expectant look with a half-smile. "How well are you getting along!" she exclaimed. "Didn't think you could stand it. But you've got grit all right," if you are a lady," Blake said admiringly. "Say, you'll make It yet! Now, how about the gully?" "There 1B no place to climb up. It runs along like thisr and then slopes down. But there is a cliff at the end, as high as these walls." "Twenty feet," muttered Blake. "Confound the luck. It isn't that jump-off; but how in—how are we going to get up on the cliff? There's an everlasting lot of omelettes in those birds' nests. If only that bloomin'— how's that. Win, me b'y?—that bloomln', blawsted baobab was on t'other Bide. The wood's almost soft as punk. We could drive in pegs, and climb up the trunk." "There are other trees beyond it," remarked Miss Leslie. "Then maybe we can shin up—" "I fear the branches that overhang the cliff are too slender to bear any weight." "And It's too infernally high to climb up to this overhanging baobab limb." "I say," ventured Winthrope, "if we had an ax, now, we might cut up one of the trees, and make a ladder." "Oh, yes; and if we had a ladder, we might climb up the cliff!" "But, Mr. Blake, iB there not some way to cut down one of the trees? The tree itself would be a ladder if it fell in such a way as to lean against the cliff." 'There's only the penknife," answered Blake. "So 1 guess we'll have to scratch eggs off our menu card Spring leopard for ours! Now, if you really want to help, you might scrape the soup bones out of your boudoir, and fetch a lot more brush. It'll take a big Are to rid the hole of that cat smell." "Will not the tree burn?" "No; these hollow baobabs have green bark on the inside as well 'as out. Funny thing, that! We'd have to keep a fire going a long time to burn through." "Yet It would burn in time?" "Yes; but we're not going to—" "Then why not burn through the trunk of one of those small trees, instead of chopping it down?" "By—heck, Miss Jenny, you've got an American headpiece! Come on. Sooner we get the thing started, the better." Neither Winthrope nor Miss Leslie was reluctant to leave the vicinity of the carcasses. They followed close after Blake, around the monstrous bole of the baobab. A little beyond it stood a group of slender trees, whose trucks averaged eight inches at the base. Blake stopped at the second one, which grew nearest to the sea ward side of the cleft. "Here's our ladder,' he said. "Get some firewood. Pound the bushes, though, before you go poking into them. May be snaker here." "Snakes?—oh!" cried Miss Leslie, and she stood shuddering at the danger she had already incurred. The fire had burnt itself out on a bare ledge of rook between th^m and the baobab, and the clumps of dry brush left standing in this end of the cleft were very suggestive of snakes, now that Blake had called attention to the possibility of their presence. He laughed at his hesitating companions. "Go on, go on! Don't squeal till you're bit. Most snakes hike out, if you give them half a chance. Take a stick each of you, and pound the bushes." Thus urged, both started to work. But neither ventured into the thicker clinnps. When they returned, with, large armfuls of sticks and twigs, they found that Blake had used his glass to light a handful of dry bark, out in the sun, and was nursing it into a small fire at the base of the tre#, on the side next the cliff. "Now, Miss Jenny," he directed, "you're to keep this going—not too big a fire—understand? Same time you can keep on fetching brush to fumigate your cat hole. It needs it, all right." "Will not that be rather too much for Miss Leslie?" a?k^d Winthrope. "Well, if she'd rather come and rub brains on the skin?,—Indian tan, you know.—or—" "How -can yon mention such things before a lady?" protested Winthrope "Beg your pardon. Miss Leslie! you see, I'm not much used to ladies' company. Anyway, you've s;ot to see and hear about these things. And now I'll have to get the strings for Win's bamboo bow*. Cume mi Win. We've got that old tabby to p«-"el, and a lot more besides."

Rut it's not. and you have got to get used to it, sooner or later. So we'll start now." I suppose, if I must, Mr. Blake— Really, I wkh Jo help." "Good. That's something like! Think you can learn to cook?" "See what 1 did this morning." Blake took the cord of cocoanut fiber which she held out to him, and tested its strength. "Well, I'll be blessed!" he said. "This is something like. If you don't look out, you'll make quite a campmate. Miss Jenny. But now, trot along. This is hardly arctic weather, and our abattoir don't include a coldstorage plant.

The fire, once started, required little attention. She could give most of her time to gathering brush for the fumigation of the leopard den. She had collected quite a heap of Cuel at the entrance of the hollow, when she remembered that the place , would first have to be cleared of its accumulation of bones. A glance at her companions showed that they were in the midst of tasks even more revolting. It was certainly disagreeable to do such things; yet, as Mr. Blake had said, others had to do them. It was now her time to learn. She could see him smile at her hesitation. Stung by the thought of his halfcontemptuous pity, she caught up a forked stick, and forced herself to enter the tree-cave. The stench met her like a blow. It nauseated and all but overpowered her. Fhe stood for several moments in the center of the cavity, sick and faint. Had it been even 4he previous day, she would have run out into the open air. Presently she grew a little more accustomed to the stench, and began to rake over the soft, dry mold of the den floor with her forked stick. Bones!—who had ever dreamed of such a mess of bones?— big bones and little bones and skulls; old bones, dry and almost burled; moldy bones; bones still half-covered with bits of flesh and gristle—the remnants of tJae leopard family's last meal. At last all were scraped out and flung in a heap, three or four yards away from the entrance. Miss Leslie looked at the result of her labor with a satisfied glance, followed by a sigh of relief. Between the heat and her unwonted exercise, she was greatly fatigued. She stepped around to a shadier spot to rest. With a start she remembered the fire. When she reached It there were only a few dying embers left. She gathered dead leaves and shreds of fibrous inner bark, and knelt beside the dull coals to blow them into life. She could not bear the thought of having to confess her carelessness to Blake. (TO BE CONTINrED.) ACTED UPON BY SUGGESTION. CHAPTER X. Problems in Woodcraft. T WAS no pleasant sight that met Miss Leslie's gaze upon her return. The neatest of butchering can hardly be termed aesthetic; and Blahe and Winthrope lacked both skill and tools. Between the penknife and an improvised blade of bamboo, they had flayed the two cubs and haggled off the flesh. The ragged strips, splttejd on bamboo rods, were already searing in the fierce sun-rays. Miss Leslie would have slipped into the hollow of tb4 baobab with her armful of fagots and brush; but Blaka That Thought May Produce Blister on Hand, Is Medical Fact. It Is not generally known that thought may produce a blister on the hand or an ulcer on the foot, as well as many other actual physical changes in ones organism which are little short of miraculous. I have no doubt that St. Francis of Asslsi received the stigmata of the crucifixion on his hands and feet as historically described. I have no doubt, because its possibility has been put to the proof within the past few years, and by a friend of mine whom I will name, Prof. Krafft Ebing of Vienna told a young woman he would place a small fly plaster upon her which would produce a blister in a few hours. He actually only put a postage stamp upon the skin, without her knowledge, and covered it over so securely with bandages that she could not interfere with it. The blister appeared as suggested.— Frederick Peterson, M. D., in Collier's. Drudgery in the Kitcnen. The path of progress is clear. There is no more reason why the woman in modern civilization should scrub and cook and darn and dust than there is why these things should be done by men. The development of improved machinery and the growth of labor saving devices of all kinds will finally obviate the necessity of doing these things each day in each home through the land. Co-operation, which we are slowly learning to greet as a friend, will overcome the drudgery and make the life of a woman as enjoyable and eventful as that of the man.—Nearing and Watson in "Economics." Their Marks. "The seal or signet ring," said a jeweler, "once had a very practical use. In the Middle Ages, when nobody but the priests could write, men stamped documents with their signet rings, as the illiterate now make their marks. "The signet rings of noblemen bore the owner's crest or arms. The rings of merchants bore intricate monograms, trademark or the like. There are certain old continental firms that preserve in cabinets the seal rings worn by tbeir founders—rings whose seals are inscribed with the trademarks Rttll in'use." Not the Kind They'd Keep.

Two matrons of a certain western city, whose respective matrimonial ventures did not in the first instance prove altogether satisfactory, met at a woman's club one day, when the brat matron remarked: "Hattle, 1 met your *ex/ dear old Tom, the day before yesterday. We talked much of you." "Is that so?" asked the other matron. "Did he seem sorry when you told him of my second marriage?" "Indeed, be did; and said so most frankly!" "Honest?" "Honest!

To decide the all important question of coffee, whether or not it is really the hidden cause of physical ails and approaching fixed diseases, one should make a test of ten days by leaving off coffee entirely and using well-made Postum. If relief follows you may know to a certainty that coffee has been your vicious enemy. Of course you can take it back to your heart again, if you like to keep sick. A lady says: "I had suffered with stomach trouble, nervousness and terrible sick headaches ever since I was a little child, for my people were always great coffee drinkers and let ug children have all we wanted. I got so I thought I could not live without coffee, but I would not acknowledge that it caused my suffering. "Then I read so many articles about Postum that I decided to give it a fair trial. I had not used it two weeks In place of coffee until I began to feel like a different person. The headache and nervousness disappeared and whereas I used to be sick two or three days out of a week while drinking coffee I am now well and strong and sturdy seven days a week, thfanks to Postum. "I had been using Postum three monthB and had never been sick a day when I thought I would experiment and see if it really was coffee that caused* the trouble, so I began to drink coffee again and inside of a week I had a sick spell. I was so 111 I was soon convinced that coffee waa the cause of all my misery and I went back to Postum with the result that I was soon well and strong again and determined to stick to Postum and leave coffee alone in the future."

A Should Carry U m p t . , Ifce-Iaw which compels eutos to have a good clan of lamps both front and rear should be made to include all vehicles as the auto driver has no protection whatever in meeting a rig after dark. Of course the driver of the buegy or rather tbe horse, can aee the auto ooming for some distance and tries to get out of the way, many times driving into tbe tone* at a danger of upsetting, and then blames the antoist, while if tbe baggy had lights the driver of the auto woald have a chance as well to give way to the other rig and parbaps turn out in a good place for passing. The drivers of antos are blamed many times for things that he waa not to blame for at all and where if tbe other driver had used the same courtesy that he wonld to another driver of a horse there would be no trouble. Remember that tbe auto driver is obliged to stop tor you if you wave your hand, but after you have caused him to stop be as quick as possible in getting past as his time is perhaps as valuable as yours. Also remember that when you are overtaken by an auto and the driver signifies bis desire to go by either by tooting his horn or otherwise, that the law compels you to turn out at tbe first opportunity and let him by. There are we know, some auto driverB who are about as mean as they can be and probably break tbe law in regard to speed, etc., but remember that is no excuse tor you to break tbe law in not giving the antoist bis rights. Tbe sooner each driver recognizes tbe rights of the other tbe same as be would the driver of a like rig, the better for all concerned. In turning out to let an auto pass yon, do not do so on a hill and think you have fnllfilled tbe requirements as you have not—it is almost impossible for a machine to go fast enough up bill to pass even a slow horse. There am many and we might say the most of them who are willing to give tbe antoist bis rights aid some of them more but there are a tew who still hold a grudge against not only the auto bnt anyone who drives one. We have not written this article to rub anyone in particular nor because we own an auto and want more than is our rights, but to try to give all an idea that each must be respected in their rights.

Among the Essentials In Erecting This Building. In replying to a query as to the best method ot constructing a cement cold-storage building and a Grange hall. K. b\ Martin in Rural New Yorker, makes the tollowing reply: For the building we put up, 30x70. outer walls eight xeet high in the rear ami 12 teet high in front, we used 21 (J bags ot cement, or about 53 barrels. We did not keep count of the san i and stones used, as they were near the building work. We did not put any air space in the walls. We have had the building up a year, and the walls have always beeu perlectly dry. I have been told by masous that the stones forming the o./ter face ot the wall will take care of the nmistur*. and prevent its coming through. Diagram shows construcr on ot the walls, both below and above ground. The former, 1 sho.ild think, would be very uncap and satisfactory for the proposed Grange hall, as any stones can be used to "puddle" In with the concrete mixture.

He estimates that $2,000,000 or $::,000,000 worth of damage is annually wrought by insects and that known means of protection, property used, could prevent about two-thirds of this loss. He is therefore impressing the necessity of a close study by all classes of people of tin's question, with the hope of saving forests, shade trees and crops. Woman Is a Puzzle. Woman Is a puzzle.

How long will the asparagus bed last? .A suburban market gardener says he has a large bed about 20 years old which has about run out. The roots have grown a thick mass all over the field, saya the New England Homestead. The rows of sprouts have widened until it is difficult to cultivate at all and th'i stalks have heroine small. Repeated losses by winter killing have left large gaps in some places To renovate such - a field is a hopeless lob and to kill out j (he asparagus is almost equally difn j cult,. Perhaps the easiest way to reclaim the land will be to chop up the surface with a wheel harrow and sow to onts and barley, ioliowed by rye. 1« will take several seasons to kill out the plants It may be said here that an aspauigus bed will last much longer than 2\) years if the plants are set in wider rows and farther apart in the row. Plants which have plenty of room for their roots will stud up in rue sprouts when 50 years old in and well manured and clean. In the iied above mentioned the4 glgnto were crowded only *\t" inches to a foot ipart, witb less tofti^-four fe«t< between the rows. • A » Plan for Cow Barn. ber, which is stripped over each stud ding with a 1x2 inch strip. The strips are covered with wood or metal lath and the lath with two coats of Port land cement plaster. The spaces be tween the studding are rilled in with concrete thirty inches above the tlooi line. The walls and ceilings are then lathed and plastered with cement. The roof is covered with best grade of as phalt roofing, over eight inch ship lap. which makes the entire barn practically fireproof. Considering that the walls require no paint, and that the barn is much warmer in winter and cooler in summer than wood, also the lasting qualties of this construction, it is really cheaper than wood, as it is very little more expensive than the wood to start with. In- some sections where the sand and gravel may be secured on one's own place it may be built even cheaper than with wood. All exposed woodwork should receive three coats of the best paint, and should be renewed as often as necessary The stalls are formed of gas pipe, also the stanchions The Moors, also the gutters, are provided with drain trap* for carrying away the water and liquid manure. The liquid manure should he drained to a cement manure pit. Where a water system is In stalled a hose may be used and the entire barn washed down and cleaned in a very short tune. All angles should be rounded so as to not hold the dust and dirt. Peed and litter c a r r k r s are installed, and the loute of the trolleys areshown by the dotted lines. If hay or other rough feed Is stored above, a good tipht floor shoald be laid, and sliding doors placed to ciose the hall space between the feed toom and milk room. By closing the doors and passing the hay down in this space the dust and dirt will be kept out of the cow bain. One fea ture about this construction that should not be overlooked is that any damage to the walls or floors may lie repaired by almost any one and the material required will be simply the cement and sand. A Good Insecticide. Some Philadelphia gardeners use lime and tobacco water tor destroy mg many insects which prey on plants A half bushel of lime is emptied into a barrel of water, together with a bucketful of tobacco stems. This is we.I stirred up, and after it has settled tor a day or two the clear water is syringed over bushes, killing all insects that come within its reach Daily Thought.

H I N T S FOR CARE OF HOGS. If you have not, made arrangements to get. the hogs out on the grass, do so at. once. A cheap fence can he built, with posts, and hemlock hoards ten inches wide with two barbed wires on top. This fence will keep hogs, give them health and the owner profit. As soon as the pigs are weaned the sows should be turned with the male and then put by themselves in a good clover pasture. A clover field Is a paradise for hogs and a money-maker for their owner.

PICKS HOUSES WITHOUT MEN Leap* Through Window* Where Ladies Sit and Spreads Terror— Grabs Plate of Fudge Rune Up a Tree. THAT FROZE HIM. » t> Greenwich, Conoo-A wild, monkey t h a t baa been going about for two days and nights trying to break into polite society has frightened the people into closing their doors and windows and braving the stifling heat rather than play host to the little brother of the African slain. This, be it understood, is no hand organ variety of monk. His size, species and fighting disposition all indicate that he formerly belonged to a family of gladiatorial monkeys in the native jungle, whence he was kidnaped some years ago. With the £rue instinct of a tramp the monkey had picked out houses where the men were away from home, and a trail of scared women has been left where the animal sought entree into the most exclusive circles. The living room of Mrs. W. T. Buchelle, a wealthy New York widow, whose husband was an official of the New York Telephone Company, first attracted the monkey. Mrs. Buchelle was entertaining a lady who had called when the window was darkened by the strange intruder. The monkey ran toward the women, chattering in ganry simian dialect and showing Ua teeth.., Xhe two women ran, shutting the door so as to leave the monkey in possession of only one room.

On the other side faithful Towser, the family bulldog, rushed to the attack. Whether the monkey knew about the properties of the screen and was putting up a bluff or not may not be stated, but the intruder showed fight and the dog held his championship reputation by reason of the wir<: guard. Prom this house the monkey ran t.c Nathaniel Webb's home. There he imagined himself a policeman and went into ,the k|tcljen. where ht grabbed a plate of fudge from a servant girl and leaped into a near by tree, screaming a warning to the girl to keep away while he en.ioyed the family food. At the last stop where the monkey was seen a child was eating a stick of candy. The monkey took thf candy and left, the child unharmed. There is no indication as to whence the monkey came, but the people of the neighborhood are thoroughly ter rifled and are afraid to open theii windows. the Signature of< In Use For Over 3 0 Yeara.

Plato Dobbs' Tricky Ways By Benjamin Franklin Napheys xx: (CupyrUcht. by Dally Story Pub. Co.) v Plato Dobbs lay with his head just visible beoeath the patchwork quilt, and one,arm. stretched across t h e t o p of t h e covers. His fist was clenched, and whenever he emitted an unusually, Joud snore he wrathfully smote the bed clothing. Plato was evidently having unpleasant experiences in t h e Jan<J si dream8. His wife, clad in a dressing gown, sat on t h e edge of t h e bed, watching him. S h e made no move to arouse Plato from his uneasy slumbers, however; and when a light tap sounded a t the bedroom door she opened it si lently. "Don't make a sound, sister Angelina," cautioned Mrs. Dobbs, as a thin, hatchet-faced woman, with a bowl of water in h e r hand, entered t h e room. "He's asleep at last, but he's mighty restless. I don't want him waked up until you've tried t h e experiment on him. Seem's if I couldn't wait another minute to find out whether your suspicions were true-, or only made up out of your own head.'' "Made up, indeed," sniffed Angelina; "that's t h e thanks I get from my own sister. You needn't be afraid, I'll show him up," and she gestured toward t h e sleeping Plato. "I showed up h i s two brothers, Animoua and Venomous, over to Peaville, before I'd been visiting their wives two weeks. Just as soon as I helped those poor, deluded women to pack up and go home to their own folks I came right over here to help you out. There never was a man yet to be trusted in anything, and now that I've discovered a way to un- _ m a s k 'em it's going to be my lifework. Did you have Plato do as I said to-day, so's he'd be good and tired to-night?" "Yes, he's been on the go ever since sunup; and to-night I got him a travel book out of the library, and he's heen reading it aloud. There was one fearful story in it—about a female gorilla capturing a man and keeping him a prisoner for two weeks on the limb of a tree. Plato read that twice, it was so exciting." "I'll excite him," ejaculated Miss Angelina, grimly. "You always was the softest one of the Barlow family, or you'd have soon through Plato Dobbs' tricky ways long ago. But I s'pose if I hadn't nought my book of ancient secrets you'd have put up with him all youf days, and been none t h e wiser." During Miss Angelina's remarks s h e had grown somewhat excited, and. heedless of the sleeping Plato, she raised her voice a little. He gave no sign of rousing, however; indeed, his slujnber seemed more quiet. .*nd he lay,.breathing regularly, with his a r m dangling over the edge of the bed. Mrs. Dobbs gazed with 41 we at t h e bowl on the table. "Are you sure," she demanded, "that you've mixed it according to direc ttons?" "Certainly; I know the recipe by heart: 'M you would know another's secrets, place a great pinch of salt, in a bowl of clear water; then when a deep sleep has fallen upon him place his hand in the salted water and ask him what yon will; he cannot deceive you.' I b'lieve some ancient, woman named Alberta Agnes discovered t h e secret. Come on, hold the bowl so his hands just touch the water, and I'll do the questioning. He'll find that he can't hide anything from Angelina Barlow." There w a s no guile on t h e placid face of Plato Dobbs as he lay on his baclc with his eyes closed. The night mare that had affrighted him seemed to have departed. With curiosity and awe on h e r face, Mrs. Dobbs took up the bowl and- gently raised it. until Plato's fingers dipped into the water. "Wet hiB hand more," admonished her sister at her side. Mrs. Dobbs was about to comply when Plato struck out suddenly, sending a shower fnto the face of Miss Angelina. "Wow!" muttered the sleeper, "there s h e j s again. There's old bowleg «-Aigh;M "There, what did T t e l l yon?" exclaimed Hiss Angelina. "He's talking aboMt^wewe^'already. Walt till I get the salt water out of my feye»,vand I'll find out what he's been up to. ^Wet his hand again, sinter." Once more Plato1* band w a s , s u b - merged, and this time be made no protesting m o v e m e n t Miss Angelina fixed her eyes on his face and sternly demanded: "Plato W. Dobbs, where'd you firat meet this female?*'.. "Um-uni—down by the river," sleepily muttered the man In the bed, "I knew it," declared Miss Angelina. "I told you, siBter, that he went down there for something else besides fishing. I followed him often enough, but I never could catch him at anything. Where'd you hide, you bald-headed old deceiver?" • "Up a tree," responded t h e victim, with astonishing promptness. "Up a tree—tree—tree—um." "Good lands!" exclaimed Mrs. Dobbs, "there's no woman around these parts that can climb a tree, let alone staying there when s h e got up. Ask him how she kept from falling off the limbs." "Bow-legged," immediately responded t h e sleeper. "Old bow-legs—bowlegs— ugh." "Keep his hand well wet, sister," cautioned Miss Angelina. "I'm going brute, you've got f3 tell. What's h e r name? Sp^ak up." ' "Angelina B a x W , " ' a n d then Plato drowsily took *way his hand and burled himself beneath t h e patchwork coverlid. The bowl of water dropped unheeded front Mrs. Dobbs' fingers, and Miss Angelina sunk limply to the floor. "You'd better go to bed and get some rest, Angelina," said Mrs. Dobbs at length. "You'll be getting up early to-morrow." "Do you b'lieve what he said?" weakly demanded Miss Angelina. "N-no, course not; only you told me that t h e Bait water made 'em all tell the truth, and you know, Angelina, that you're awfully bow—" "Sister!" "Well, any way, you'd better pack your things, and the hired man'll drive you over to Peaville the first thing in the morning." Beneath the bed clothes Plato Dobbt was chuckling and winking In t h t darkness. A Week Behind. It is perhaps Bruno's tact and di plomacy that have made his weekly entertainments a t the Lyceum on East Broadway so popular, says t h e New York Press. As an example, last Friday evening t h e subject of the lecture waB "Shall Woman and Man Be Educated Equally, and Why?" There followed discussions. One boy, whether it was that he slept or what, arose, mounted t h e platform and began carefully to discuss t h e subject of the week before and to answer t h e arguments he evidently thought t h e speaker of that evening had advanced in proof of his theory. T h e audience commenced to titter, then to laugh aloud, whereupon Mr. Brunof sprang up and explained: T h e sign outside has not been changed," he said. "The painter did not change it, therefore this young man naturally supposed the subject announced outside to be the subject under discussion this evening. I t is not his fault. It is not our fault. It is the fault of the painter." 3SEHS3SB*. SUBPmSED A t ' W E SCHEDULE Colored Man Felt He Was Being Railroaded Into tfi» Class of "High Financier*."

"I'll Excite Him," Ejaculated Miss Angelina, Grimly. to find out who she is now, only I dassent ask him right out, just yet. What does she look like. Plato W ? " "Ugly, slabsided — hawk nosed old gorilla—gorilla—wow!" "And you've been running after a person like that?" "N-a-w, she chased me—every day— up a tree." "There, I knew i t ! " exclaimed Mrs. Dobbs. "You see, sister, no matter what we've found out, it isn't his fault." "Be still, and keep his hand wet. Plato W., what is her name?" i» Plato stirred, grunted, and hid his face in t h e pillow.

There is much that appeals to human interest and emotion in the immense stacks of letters and parcels received at the rate of 40,000 a day, and containing articles of every description, some of them bearing addresses which cannot be deciphered even by the experts. In the 13,000,000 pieces of mail matter received by the division last year there were 6,000 books, 1,000 pairs of eye-glasses, 90o fountain pens, 800 razors, false teeth, marriage certificates, rings, shoes, snakes—in fact, everything from valuable diamonds to penny souvenirs. There was also more than $65,000 in actual money and commercial paper, including checks, drafts, money orders, etc., representing a face value of $2,203,992.— Assistant Postmaster General P.

Saves Time—Saves Money MO STROPPING NO HONING -Gillette KNOWN THE WORLD OVER 'Guara^ That Divining Rod Mystery The enthusiasm with which men have written to disprove and discredit the claims of those who relate successful experiences with t h e divining rod, for t h e finding of hidden underground springs, h a s served to create a rather unusual interest In the subject. It is somewhat like shaking a red rag a t a bull to raise t h e subject again, before the heat of a recent discussion h a s fairly cooled, b*it a new theory a n d a new account cf success have come together from France, both of which a r e worth relating. That springs are actually found, and with surprising frequency by men who use the divining rod is a fact that cannot be disputed. But whether it is the rod or the mad that finds the spring is t h e open question. The Frenchmen claim that t h e man is the sensitive medium upon which the unexplained influence works, while t h e rod is but a means of expression which shows effect. Both observers and t h e workers with t h e r o d state that only those to whom the gift is I given naturally can hope to succeed j with the divining of springs, and claim that the criticism and ridicule that is turned upon them is due to the fact of failures where the gift is absent.— Technical World Magazine.

I think they ought to know Last autumn I took my daughter abroad aud left her at school at Geneva. Then I started for Berlin. I got t&to an empty compartment and waited till the train started. Presently au oJAsh gentleman got in with a young lab lady. They was very affectionate —at least the oldish gentleman appeared to dote on his young wife, who seemed to be watching for some one. Then a youngish man with black whiskers got in, took a seat directly opposite the wife, aad Hhe breathed easier. The door waa abut by the guard, and the train steamed away. It dldnt take me long to find out that that yonng feller and tbat youug wife were fooling the oldish husband. The old oue never turned his head that they didn't look into each other's eyes lovingly. By and by he got up from his seat, came to the window where I was and sat down directly opposite me, at the same time taking a news paper out of his pocket. I never saw such a fool lu my life. If ^hese old meu will marry young wives', why on earth do they leave them in temptation, I'd like to know? The poor old I husband never took his eyes off his | paper, and the couple at the other side | of the compartment never stopped ! flirting. j I sat straight up and tried to frown j 'em down. They didn't seem to care much for me, but once the young hussy, wbnen her lover put his hand on hers, drew hers away, cast a glance at me and whispered something to the young man. After that they both leaned back for awhile and stopped their JbeJhV. But It wasn't long before they V«a at it again, beth leanin' forward, sjst of his knees covered by her skirts, tmt she didn't know that I knew that tie? was holdin' hands under it too. I couldn't stand it any longer. The basband waa a benevolent looking •an, and I sympathised with him from the bottom of my heart. By and by he put down bis paper and looked oat the winder. I began by makln' tome remarks about the weather and the beauty of the country. He seemed inclined to talk with me because he hadn't any one else to talk with. I purposely directed his gaze to the view to be seen from the other window so that he'd see what was goin' on, but the miserable things heard me and leaned back against the cushions. There was uothln' for me to do but tell him. By this I'd be doln' him a service and her, too, for I guessed there hadn't been anything real criminal between 'em, and if the affair was nipped In the bud there wouldn't be. Jest as I waa makin' up ray mind how to put him on to the thing without offense the train whizzed into a tunnel. The compartment was black as Ink for awhile; then we shot out into bright daylight. The old fool of a husband was settin' with his head thrown back and his eyes shet. The lovers was settin* back from each other, and n flush was on the young woman's cheeks. But what was that on the black whiskers of the young man? Powderpowder from off her face. I saw It and knew that the whippersnapper had been rakin* a kiss. At that moment the husband opened his eyes. Would you believe it? He looked at the couple unconcernedly and then resumed his paper. "What's that," 1 whispered to him, "on that young man's beard?" He looked at me kind o' surprised, then at the young man, then back at me. "I don't see anything," he said. '"Don't you see the powder on his beard?" "Powder? No." "Well, I declare! Where's your eyes? That young man's got powder on his beard and his coat collar, and It could have only come from your wife's face." The old man looked again at the powder, then at me, then back at the couple. Then, looking at the young man, he said flerrely: "You kissed her, sir!" "What business is that of yours?" retorted the other in a harsh voice. "She Is no longer yours. She is mine." "Yours, sir!" "Yes. mine." "Since w h e n ? " " A t high noon t o d a y .

Tbe numBer' of new mills, building or p l a n n ^ v t b e MdiUciona to old mills and factories which are being made, and the general increase in productive reaourcee afford evidence of expanding traffic and greatly augmented wealth. Thla industrial growth 1B on a larger scale than it has been for a long time. It is abundant proof that New England is full of vital force, in business and in all productive activities. The1 greatest gain in the number and capacity of mills is in the textile industry, tbe field the best part of which superficial observers of business conditions and changes have said the south was fast capturing, says the Cleveland Leader. Southern cotton mills have indeed multiplied rapidly and prospered greatly, hut they have merely taken a part of the increase In the vast industry built, upon the fiber of the cotton plant. They have not cut down New England's output of cotton goods. They have not even prevented its strong and almost constant expansion. Yankee skill and capital, the experience of New England manufacturers, the prestige of their products and the machinery of distribution in their hands, all unite to defend the cotton industry of that section from injury by competition in the region where the raw material is grown. Once upon a time, the seasoned gossips of Washington say, you could spot a United States senator at sight. But now, they declare, it is hard to tell a solon of the upper house from a stock broker. It is all in the matter of clothes, says the New York World. The long frock coat, the expansive shirt front and the big, soft black hat of old have yielded to modern business attire. We mention these things because a Washington dispatch stating that 55 members of the house appeared on Monday in wholly new raiment suggests a general thought of the 'clothes of congress. A British M. P. who visited this country a few years . i-i 1 1 ' 1 1 I ' l l . * ago remarked that our national legislators did not know how to dress. To which a traveler from home rejoined promptly that they were lucky if they did not •know how to dress like members of the house of commons. Be that as it may, what meager particulars we have of the new suits of various representatives indicate that the Increased salaries of congress have fallen amid exponents of sartorial progress and good taste. It is likely that all 55 of the freshly clad would pass muster on brightest Fifth avenue. Sir Robert Bond, former premier of Newfoundland, who has been conspicuous for many years as an opponent of America A psiermen who ply their calling in lfewfoundland waters, and who has been largely instrumental in inflating the fishing imbroglio to proportions which compelled international consideration and submission to The Hague conference, was badly beaten in the election which took place in Newfoundland. This fact will be accepted as evidence that Newfoundlanders are not opposed to American fishermen, and that they find in the presence of the Americans an element of business which makes for the prosperity of.the coast fishermen, who not only work for the American fishing vessels, but also dispose of their fish in a legal manner, under the limitations of the law. Hare is one point on which the Immigration laws might easily be strengthened. American «lti*enshlp is not a right, hut a privilege, and it should be so construed, says the New York Tribune. If the country offers exceptional opportunities to the strong and intelligent of other countries, it fa worth their while to prove that they are entitled to share in these opportunities. No one can find any legitimate fault with this procedure, except the criminal and the incompetent, and the American people need consult their wishes only in so far as it may be desirable to find out what they would' prefer and then act to the contrary. UNHAPPILY MARRICD T M I I N O COMES BY MURDtR AND SUICIDE. CASS VERY GRUESOME. Qrand Rapid* Furnlahta a Horrible Story, and Lansing One, Both Cases Have 8lmllar Cause. The coroner's Inquest Into the deaths of Warren C. Rowland and his wlte, Vashti Perry Rowland, who, were found late Friday In a vacant house In Qrand Rapids, and the autopsy on the remains, revealed the fact that Rowland first stunned his wife by Btriking her on the head with his wooden leg, which he had removed, then wrecked the gas fixture, permitting the gas to pour into the room, and cut his own throat with a razor. The woman died from uspnyxiation, not from the blow on the head, which, according to the corouer, only stun* ned her. The man also died from asphyxiation, as the wound in the throat was not deep enough to cause death. Mrs. Rowland's body was found on the bed, partially dresseo, while that of her husband was partially on the floor. The room was full of gas, the key hole, all the cracks in the door and windows having been stuffed up with rags and pieces of clothing. They had evidently been dead nearly two weeks. Friday afternoon a neighbor notified the local gas office that there was a strong odor of gas coming from the vacant house, and an inspector was sent there to investigate. He inspected the meter in the basement and finally worked to the second floor. He traced the leak to the side room; and when the door was opened a horrible stench arose. The heat of the room was excessive, and the gas was pouring from the open jet. The police and coroner were then notified. Owing to the stench in the room the officers were unable to make a careful examination till several hours aft$r the bodies were found. Then they discovered the floor and door knob spattered with blood and bloody vest on the floor. Rowland had a police record and his reputation was bad. Mrs. Rowland was the daughter of Mrs. Flora O'Brien, of Pontiac. Besides her sister, Hazel, she has a brother, Lewis. Mrs. Rowland was married in Grand Rapids four years ago. Lansing Case. Charles Thayer, a farmer living south of Lansing, came to town Saturday morning and shot and killed his wife at the house where she was working. Thayer then fatally shot himself. He was enraged because the woman would not live with him. Thayer went to the door of the house and knocked. As Mrs. Thayer opened the door he snot and killed her, turning the revolver immediately upon himself. A GREAT PARADE. That wife who made her hwibund account for every cant she gave him was only getting back a t some husbands. Fine Exhibit of Automobiles in a Street Pageant. The parade of automomies in Detroit on Saturday was both magnificent and wonderful, there being over eleven hundred of these vehicles In line, ranging from the big touring cars to the small runaoouis and electrics. Many of the cars were stunningly decorated with flowers, and prizes .were given for ,tbe most striking effects. The parade was a preliminary to the famous liiidcten tour, which started Monday morning at 9 o'clock from in front of the city hall, the sixth annual tour of the American Automobile association, which includes the contests for the Glidden, Hower and Detroit trophies. In all 43 cars started, fll of which are contesting cars—14 for the Glidden, 14 for the Hower and three for the Detroit cup. In previous years the Glidden trophy has been won on tours through the eastern states, but now tV* cars are to have a drive of nearly 1,900 miles westward from Detroit to Denver and then 7ii0 miles back to Kansas City, where 1 lie tour will disband. The route leads the participants into territory not previously traveled, and there will bo many novel features. Sales of Homestead Lands. State Land Commissioner Huntley Russell Friday morning stated thai he would make an effort to have the land commissioner granted the privilege of holding the sales of homestead and other state lands in the territory in which they are situated, rather than here in Lansing. There are about. 00,000 acres of land situated in Alger, Arenac, -Dickinson, Isabella, Roscommon, Saginaw and Wexford counties which will soon be placed on sale, and if the sales are held in those territories many people who have not the money to make the trip to Lansing, as is necessary no*r, will be able, to purchase. By a peculiar mark upon her arm, Mrs. Hazel Horton, of Benton Harbor, was recognized bx her daughter, Mrs. Prank Davis. For 15 years the older woman has been thought dead, and the daughter was reared by other relatives. The blaeberry season, begins- neat week, with the largest cro»< tor year*.

Bearing the scars of 847 amend* meats, placed there by the senate, the Payne tariff bill found its way back to the house, exactly three months to a day from the time it was put through by that body. Its reception was hailed with mingled feeling of joy and disappointment by the members on both aides, who, in response to summons from their respective leaders, turned out in great force. Cheaper cotton add woolen goods and cheaper hosiery and' women's gloves — former demanded by the house and the latter by the senate— promise to be among the most stubbornly* fought questions in the congressional conference on the bill. At east, that is the way things appeared at the close of the first day's session. Many express the opinion that the house witt yield on cotton and wool and the senate on gloves and hosiery in compliance with the protectionists' idea of stand-patism. Two sessions of the con*erees were held Saturday. The first began at 10 a, m. and continued until 1:15 p. m. A recess was taken for luncheon lasting until 2:30 o'clock, when the afternoon session was begun. It . was agreed that these hours shall continue through the conference. The afternoon session lasted until nearly 6 o'clock. When the session closed for the day the conferees had passed through the chemical and earthenware schedules and more than half way through the metal schedule. The adjustment of the differences between the house and senate will not prove so serious a task as is indicated by the large number oi amendments. More than 200 of the amendments consist of changing the phraBe "as provided by sections one and two of this act" to read "as provided by this section." These ehangee were- made necessary by the Action of the senate in consolidating the dutiable and free lists and making the maximum.provision the second.sectlon<of the" bjll. Nearly 300 other amendiaejiU. rejite to phraseology--**^*J*hi«h,,there will be no dispute whatever. Eliminating these it is pointed out that there are lesB than 400 amendments that represent onposing views. Fev> member* of the conference committee are willing to place the time necessary for the completion o! the bill In conference at less than 10 days, notwithstanding the large, aun> ber of purely verbal amendments. Some of the conferees place the probable length of the conference at a fortnight, or more. "Questions of Importance cannot be disposed of In a day or a week," said one of the conferees tonight.. The corporation tax amendment has not been considered by the conferees In any way. Nevertheless It Is predicted in congressional circles that the proposed tax on the net earnings Of corporations will be reduced In conference from 2 per cent to 1 per cent. .;• f "That has been suggested," said Senator Aldrich, when asked concerning the report that a reduction would be made in the tax. He said he could not say what would be done. It was reported also that the corporation tax provision, may be eliminated and the house inheritance tax provision restored to the bill, but no confirmation of this could be had. Rats Go to Csnada. Consul General John Edward Jones reports that Winnipeg is preparing for an active campaign against rats, which . have Invaded Manitoba from the south, and are described as "marching on Winnipeg." "The people look with serious concern upon the subject," says Mr. Jones. "Recently the matter was taken before the board of control at Winnipeg with a view to'devising ways and means to check the rodent advance. "Western Canada, especially the grain belt, has ever been free from rats, and the farmers are much concerned over their appearance and the threatened destruction of their harvested grain. " T h e deputy minister of agriculture is making a careful investigation of the subject along the International boundary, and will shortly make a report to the government." WIRELETS. V. S.

Some important interests in the trade figure that the consumptive demand has grown enough to absorb this difference and that before the entire crop is harvested we will run into a period of actual shortages rather than a surplus. It is also figured that foreign requirements easily will take all wheat which Is not needed for domestic purposes as crop conditions are generally understood to be.unsatisfactory in most of the old world grain raising districts. Hangman Shocked Them. , As if the hanging of a murderer In the Stratford, Ont., jail yard was not enough to shock and sicken the citizens of fine sensibilities, Hangman Radcliffe has hammered in the memory of the gruesome event by doling out, In small sections, the rope which the victim was hanged. He has also parted with the black cap which covered the murderer's head. Certain citizens are proudly displaying their bits of hemp and a local plumber has the black cap on exhibition in his store.

Blake and Miss Leslie turned to stare at the droves of animals moving about between them and the border of the lall grass. Miss Leslie was the first to speak. "They can't be cattle, Mr. Winthrope. There are some with stripes. I do believe they're zebras!" "Get down!" commanded Blake. "They're all wild game. Those big oxlike fellows to the left of the zebras are eland. Wheel wouldn't we be in it if we owned that water hole? I'll bet I'd have one of those fat beeves inside three days." "How I should enjoy a Juicy steak!" murmured Miss Leslie. "Raw or Jerked?" questioned Blake. "What is 'jerked?'" "Dried." "Oh, no; I mean broiled— just red inside." "I prefer mine quite rare," added Winthrope. "That's the way you'll get it, damned rare—Beg your pardon, Miss Jenny! Without tre, we'll have the choice of raw or Jerked." "Horrors!" "Jerked meat 1B all right. You qut your game in strips—" "With a penknife!" laughed Miss Leslie. Blake stared at her glumly. "That's so. You've got it back on me—Butcher a beef with a penknife! We'll have to take it raw, fend dog-fashion at that." "Haven't I heard of bamboo knives?" said Winthrope. "Bamboo?" "Ira sure I can't say, but as I remember, it seems to me that the varnish- like glaze—" , "Silica? Say, that would cut meat. But where in—where in hades are the bamboos?" "I'm sure I can't say. Only I remember that I have seen them in other tropical pi aces, you know." "Meantime I prefer cocoanuts, until we have a fire to broil our steaks," remarked Miss Leslie. "Ditto, Miss Jenny, long's we have the nuts and no meat. I'm a vegetarian now—hut maybe my mouth ain't watering for something else. Look at all those chops and roasts and stews running around out there!" "They are making for the grass," observed Winthrope. "Hadn't we better start?" "Nuts won't weigh so much without the shells. We'll eat right here." There were only a few nuts left. They were drained and cracked and icooped out, one after another. The last chanced to break evenly across the middle. "Hello," said Blake, "the lower part it this will do for a bowl, Misa Jenay. When you've eaten the cream, ;wt it in your pocket. Say, Win, havo rou got the bottle and keys and—" "All safe—everything." "Are you sure, Mr. Winthrope?" liked Miss Leslie, 'Men's pockets leem so open; Twice I've had to pick jp Mr. Blake's locket." "Locket?" echo** Blake. , ( "The Ivory locket.^ Women mav ba v." :r: ^ a g f y * ^ eurloua, Mr. Blake, bat I aasu* you ka*ped QMtoU tb>*A t |fe|.*'Vl .

Can't you see? We've got all hell beat! Look here." ^ He snapped open the slide of the supposed locket, and before either of his companions could realize what he would be about, was focusing the lens of a surveyor's magnlfying-glaaa upon the back of Wlnth'rbpe'a hand. The Englishman jerked the hand away— MOw! That bums!'* Blake shook the glass in their bewildered faces. "Look there!" he shouted, "there's fire; there's water; there's birds' eggs and beefsteaks! Here's where we trek on the back trail. We'll smoke out that leopard in short order!" "You don't mean to say, Blake—" "No; I mean to do! Don't worry. You can hide with Miss Jenny on the point, while I engineer the deal. Fall in," The day was still fresh when they found themselves back at the foot of the cliff. Here arose a heated debate between the men. Winthrope, stung by Blake's jeering words, insisted upon sharing the attack, though with no great enthusiasm. Much to Blake's surprise, Miss Leslie came to the support of the Englishman. "But, Mr. Blake," she argued, "you say it will be perfectly safe for us here. If so, it will be safe for myself alone." "I can play this game without him." "No doubt. Yet if, as you say, you expect to keep off the leopard with a t the trf Ufa. the real vahiea^'baT^ot maiklag oonven- "Bitten? Yes, by John Barleycorn 1" torch, would it not be well to have Mr. Winthrope at hand with other torches, should yours burn out?" "Yes; if I thought he'd be at hand after the first scare." Winthrope started off almost on a run. At that moment he might have faced the leopard single-handed. Blake chuckled as he swung away after his victim. Within ten paces, however, he paused to call back over his shoulder: "Get around the point, Miss Jenny, and if you want something to do, try braiding the cocoanut fiber." Miss Leslie made no response; but she stood for some time gazing after the two men. There was so much that was characteristic even in this rear view. For all hie anger and his haste, the Englishman bore himself with an air of well-bred nicety. His trim, erect figure needed only a fresh suit to be irreproachable. On the other hand, a careless observer, at first glance, might have mistaken Blake, with his flannel shirt and shouldered club, for a hulking navvy. But there was nothing of the navvy In his swinging stride or in the resolute poise of his head as he came up with Winthrope. Though the girl ;vas not given to reflection, the contrast between the two could not but impress her. How well her countryman—coarse, uncultured, but full of brute strength and courage —fitted JA with these primitive surroundings WtartA* Winthrope—and herself—- She fell luto a kind of disquieted brown study.

Herd- she gathered together the cocoanut husks, and sealing herself in the shade of the overhanging ledges began tq pick, at the coarse fiber. It was cruel work for her,soft fingers, not yet fully healed from the thorn wound*. • At times the pain and an overpowering sense of injury brought tears to her eyes; s£Ul more often, she dropped the work in despair of her awkwardness. Yet always she returned to the task with renewed energy. After no little perseverance, she found how to twist the fiber and plait it into cord. At best it was slow work, and she did not see how she should ever make enough cord for a fish-line. Yet, as she caught the knack of the work and her fingers became more nimble she began to enjoy the novel pleasure of producing something. She had quite forgotten to feel injured, and was learning to endure with patience the rasping of the fiber between her fingers, when Winthrope came clambering around the corner of the cliff. "What is it?" she exclaimed, springing up and hurrying to meet him. He was white and quivering, and the look in his eyes filled her with dread. Her voice shrilled to a scream: "He's dead!" Winthrope Shook his head. "Then he's hurt!—he's hurt by that savage creature, and you've run off and left him—" "No, no, Miss Genevieve, I must insist! The fellow is not even scratched." "Then why—?" "It was the horror of it alt. It actually made me ill." "You frightened me almost to death. Did the.beast chase you?" "That would have been better, in a way. Really, it was horrible! I'm still sick over it, Miss Genevieve." "But tell me about it. Did you get fire to the bushes in the cleft, as Mr. Blake—" "Yes; after we had fetched what we could carry of that long grass—two big trusses. It grows 10 or 12 feet tall, and is now quite dry. Part of it Blake made into torches, and we fired the bush a^l across the foot of the cleft. Really, one would not have thought there was that much dry wood in so green a dell. On either side of the rill the grass and brush flared like tinder, and the flames swept up the cleft far quicker than we had expected. We could hear them crackling and roaring louder than ever after the smoke shut out our view." "Surely, there is nothing so very horrible in that." "No, oh, no; it was not that. But the beast—the leopard! At first we heard one roar; then it was that dreadful snarling and yelling—most awful squalling! The wretched thing came leaping and tumbling down the path, all singed and blinded. Blake fired the big truss of grass, and the brute rolled right into the flames. It was shocking—dreadfully shocking! The wretched creature writhed and leaped about till it plunged into the pool. When it sought to crawl out, all black and hldeets, Blake went up and killed it with bis club—crushed in Its skull— Ugh!" Misa Leslie gazed at the unnerved Englishman with calm scrutiny. "But why should you feel so about it?" she asked. "Was it not the beast's life against ours?" "But so horrible a death!" "I'm sure Mr. Blake would have pre» ferred to shoot the creature had he a gun. Having nothing else than fire, I think it was all very brave of him. Now we are sure of water and food. Had we not best be going?" "It was to fetch you that Blake sent me." . Winthrope spoke with perceptible stiffness. He was chagrined, not only by her commendation of Blake, but by the indifference with which she had met his agitation. They started at once, Miss Leslie in the lead. As they rounded the point she caught sight of the smoke still rising from the cleft. A little later she noticed the vultures which were streaming down out of the sky from all quarters other than seaward. Their focal point seemed to be the trees at the foot of the cleft. A nearer view showed that they were alighting in the thorn bushes on the south border of the wood. Of Blake there was nothing to be seen until Miss Leslie, still in the lead, pushed in among the trees. There they fttmd him crouched beside a small fire, near the edjre of the pool. He did not look up. His eyes were riveted in a hungry stare upon several "BNHSr-fea saa* out, as he heard their footaUps: "Just hi -time, Miss Jenny.

Win, my boy. Thia ain't a packing house. The stuff may be toogfcy hut i f t not-^r—the other thing. Here you are, Miss Jenny. Chaw it off ^tha slick." JC Though Winthrope had his suspicions, he took the piece of half-burned flesh which Blake handed him in turn and fel1 to eating without further question. Aa Blake had surmiaed, the roast proved far other than tender. Hunger, however, lent it a most appetizing flavor. The repast ended when there was nothing left to devour. Blake threw away bis empty spit and rose to stretch. He waited for Miss Leslie to swallow her last mouthful and then began to chuckle. "What's the joke?" asked Winthrope. Blake looked at him solemnly. "Well now, that waa downright mean of me," he drawled; "after robbing them, to laugh at it!" "Robbing who?" "The buzaards." "You've fed us on leopard meat! It's—It's disgusting!" "I found it filling. How about you. Miss Jenny?" Miss Leslie did not know whether to laugh or to give way to a feeling of nausea. She did neither. "Can we not find the spring of which you spoke?" Bhe asked. "I am thirsty." "Well, I guess the fire is about burnt out," assented Blake. "Come on; we'll see." The cleft now had a far different aspect from what it had presented on their first visit. The largest of the trees, though scorched about the base, still stood with unwithered foliage, little harmed by the fire. But many of their small companions had been killed and partly destroyed by the heat and flames from the burning brush. In places the fire was yet smouldering. (TO BE CONTINUED.)

Law Curious difficulties occasionally heset young people who wish to marry in France. A young Frenchman proposed recently to a a Mile. Eugenie, and waa accepted. The parents began coilecrmg the mass of legal papers required for French marriages. Among the first to be obtained was Mdlle. Eugenie's birth certificate, and when they got it they found that she was registered a boy. She is put down In the big book as a male, and a male she remains legally and administratively. Her parents pointed out first, that she was obviously, de facto, a girl; second, that the Christian name of Eugenie entered in the register was feminine; and third, that if she had been a boy she would already have been called up for the conscription, being of age. The authorities replied that none of these arguments were legally and administratively valid, and that she continued to be a boy. Administrative reports, procedure, and a decision of the courts, all at the parents' expense, will be required before the law acknowledges Mdlle. EugOble to be of the feminine sex and allows her to marry. • * Ji&*i Canal That Russia Needs.

"If I^were one of you fellowa," pursued Evans, "who, have girls waiting for yon I'd go home disfigured just for a test." "How would you do t h a t F asked afcGee, evidently lnts*eete4 in the proposition. "Ob, easy enough. A green patch over an eye or a leg doubled up with the knee in a wooden peg would do the business. Beggars practice thoee things every day." Evans and ttfcGee were cousins, and sa soon as they were alone together the latter said: «Tom, .I've a mind to try what you said about mutilation on Jaqueline when I return." "Good for you! You'll know then whether she's a true, noble girl or simply looking out for a fellow to give her a home." So it was arranged that when they returned Evans should go to Miss Thatcher and announce the melancholy news that her lover had lost his left arm in battle and carry a release from her engagement on th9 part of her fiance. If she desired to see him he was to go to her with his left arm twisted in the small of his back, an empty sleeve and a mOrtary cape thrown over his shoulders. Well, the war aaded stl wars end seme time—and the cousins went home safe and sound. Evans carried the message and came back wtth the weleosBt lnformatieu that Jaqueiine would love Billy just as well wttheaat the arm as with it, even mere. "Good!" ezelarmed Billy entbuslas tteally. "I knew she was true blue. There's no use now of keeping this up. HI go to her wtth two arras." "And make bar so mad she*n cast you off. You'll havs to play the one armed soldier til) after you're married or at least the invitations are out; But since you were to be married as soon as you reached home that won't matter." Now, there Is this about men—iu any serious matter connected with a woman tbey will stand by one Another even lo the most nefarious lie. But in matters that are not serious the man will Invariably stand by the woman. When McGee entered the room where Jaqueline awaited him he found her with her handkerchief to her eyes, evidently weeping for his misfortune. She threw her arms about his neck s n d sobbed on his IJ ^ ard aaturdaj of each month *n:3o ,, «,. shoulder. Then, suddenly disengaging SLO. T. M herself, she exclaimed: "Oh, Billy, did 1 hurt your poor arm?" "No," replied Billy lugubriously. "You know it's gone. I thought you wouldn't want me with nothing but one arm and a stump to fold you in." "Billy, how could you think that? When you went to the war, didn't 1 give you the ring with your cost of arms on the seal, and didn't you put it on the little finger of your left hand and swear to wear It there till your return? If you have kept your oath, that is all I require of you. Did you bring hack the ring, Billy, dear?" Here was a eitjastlon. Tom Evans bad foreseen that the ring must have been shot away with the arm. Ho told his cousin that if he had It on his finger during his interview With his fiancee he would probably get into a corner. He suggested that Billy let him wear the ring for awhile, aad Billy consented. •The ring," said Billy in a tremulous voice—"that • was the hardest part of i t I t went, wt(h the arm." "Foor fellow!" Bflly forced out a couple of tears. "Do yon know, Billy, dear," said the girl encouragingly, "that there is a good spirit which takes cars of us lovers.*' "No," said Billy, "I never heard of It" "There is. And when that horrid Gannon ball took off your poor arm the good spirit caught the ring, pulled it off the poor dead finger and brought It to-aae." ^What do ysu s n e e n r eswlsimed Billy, alarmed. "I mean what I say. Thisi lover's friend, njasg on tbe^winga of the wind. crossed the guif of Mexico and, raovhig northward, one ftijrht wben 1 was aaleep slipped the ring on«£ny own finger.

The instant I saw her I knew a criaflj waB at hand, and rose to tSft ocCfUiol}, as a cork rises to the surfacVof the water—lightly, buoyantly, yet determinedly. Josephine went at once to her room and closed the door with decision. I hovered on the stairway, palpitating with uncertainty, and the Affectionate solicitude which is ss>lsr removed from mere vulgar curiosity. Finally, mustering all my resolution, I turned the knob of the door and entered with quite a jaunty air, carelessly humming a tune. Josephine lay face downward on the bed, the riolets crushed and broken, and the heels of her patent leather shoes sticking pathetically outward. A choking, gasping sound revealed that she was crying into the counterf* ne« tQently murmuring an. endearing'epithet, I laid my band upon her head. 'Ota. ftunt'Ger*pudeVL sobbeA. Josephlne^ '*y*t'Gertrude^' - "Poornchlld/' I returned, responsively, "I understand—I understand." "O, no, you don't," she interrupted, ungratefully, "You—you can't." "Josephine," I said, kjndly but firmly, "you are engaged to be married— and to a man." It was evident she - wajs/ astonished at my perspicuity, fof ste -raised her head as though listening''-and nodded assent. "Furthermore," I continued, following up my advantage and speaking with conviction, "you are unhgppy." Down went her head again, and the-, sniffling into the counterpane recommenced. "Dear," I whispered with unalloyed sweetness, "is he worthy of these tears?" No reply. "Do you love him," I continued, ""deeply, truly, everlastingly?" Josephine sat upright and pushed, the hair out of her eyes. "Oh, Aunt Gertrude," she gasped, "it isn't htm—it's them." "Them?" I hasarded, faintly. "Yes," said my niece with the calmness of despair, "that's the trouble. I'm engaged all right—but there's two of him." "Tell me about it," I suggested, chiefly because I felt something was expected of me. "Yes," she agreed quickly, "I might Just as welt. I've got to tell somebody." "I ignored the last clause and composed myself to listen. Her story was briefly thus: Being unable to withstand the fascination to two callow youths, and finding it impossible to preserve the pface between them, Josephine had formulated the scheme of taking them •on alternate days, like two varieties 4t4 pills, as ft were. She remarked ^casually that she had stopped their visits to the house, as she disliked to see them glare at each other, and, moreover, her evenings were thus left free for others. She did not explain this, however, but insinuated parental opposition and dally persecution of herself, borne with angelic sweetness. Gently, but decidedly, I laid the facts of the case before my niece. I told her that, as she could marry but one man, it was manifestly improper to be engage* ts> two, "You mutt n«wV* I UosUnued—ignoring her remark, because I could not help'comp^efc^odinf that such a situation might be agreeable, sibeit sinful—"you must how, dear child, make your selection. Which of your ' suitors do yoirWe the better V* "Yes," .<-seid~ Joeaphjas miserably, '•it's up to me to choose, and I've done-it" "Let your heart guide you," I advised gently. "That's Just what I tried to do," returned* Josephine, confusedly, "but the f«ld thing wouldn't work. So I tossed up a penny—heads for Ned and tails for Harry- It came down tails." "And," she continued, quietly, "I'm going to elope with him tonight." "Tonight;:: I. ejaculated, aghast. J'Ye8, to-night And, oh, Aunt Gertrude, I don't v/ant to one bit. It's not Harry, after all—it's Ned. JuBt as soon as the penny came down tails up I knew it was Ned I wanted, but I was afraid to toss again, because then If I got Ned I might want Harry— Tlon't you see?" - I did not see.- in fact,-suefa vacillation was quite incomprehensible to my well-bafensed • nrtod, y buflM,, was obliged to devote ray energies to toothing Josephine* who agate turned her iaor. to th* .-<j*flttema* sad v»pt copiously. j f l j . ^ U u | l l J | l , l . c"And &e*i w s 4 t ^ # # M t o *«#&*» »y Trinity, ehurcbc' ahe sobbed; "he said he'd. w i M U * « * » * !

"You go," she said, "you go, and explain things," It is needless to recount the argument that followed. Enough to say that I finally agreed to go and tell the man wafting to marry my niece that, after all, she preferred some one, else. Josephine produced a long, light cloak and wrapped me in it; she also adorned me with a large hat loaded with plumes, because, she explained. Harry would be looking for juat that costume. Over the hat and face she tied a thick veil, remarking that no one could possibly tell who was in- Bide It, and perhaps Harry would marry me in Bplte of myself, as he was very impatient. Then she giggled hysterically. Secure in the consciousness of my rectitude, I compressed my lips and drew on my rubbers. It was not a pleasant evening.

"Let me help'you," he said, gently, and untied the knot I turned and faced him, and for a moment we stared at each other as though petrified. "The devil!" be exclaimed, very rudely, I thought I made a gigantic effort to speak, . "My dear you^g friend," I said in a voice which sounded weak and automatic to my own ears, "I fear my presence msy be somewhat of a die* appointment as well as a surprise " But I got no further, for he turned helplessly to the clergyman as though terrified. "Take her away," he gasped, "there's some mistake. Let me out of this!" But the minister lifted his hand solemnly. "There seems to be some strange misapprehension," he said, sternly; "let us get to the bottom of this matter at once. Did you expect to marry this gentleman, madam? Pray explain." And I explained as well as I could. When I reached home—a long time after, for the distance was great and the street cars slow—I found my wrapper and slippers laid out in my room and Josephine hovering anxiously about the window watching for me. 1 told her the whole story, and she laughed In a way I thought ungrateful and unappreciative. "Josephine," I said solemnly, "I shall never recover from this night's experience. 1 hope you will always remember all) I have done for you." "Oh, well," returned Josephine carelessly, "of course it was awfully good of you, but do you know, Aunt Gertrude, I think you bungled the thing most awfully." ^2^«ULW>Sfjte p & . A T T A C K .

Trinity church is situated on a side street entirely off the main thoroughfare* where it is very quiet and secluded. I paused as I reached the corner and laid my hand on my bosom, a little to the left of the breast bone, as described in physiologes when locating the heart. Its throbbing was very evident. Summoning all my fortitude, I looked in the direction of the church. There, beside the lamppost, stood a manly form, and drawn conveniently close to the curbing was a herdlc cab. Suddenly an arm appeared about my waist, a face was pressed close to mine, and I distinctly felt the pricking' of a mustache. I blushed beneath the, veil and was glad the street happened to be dark and quiet. I found myself gently but forcibly propelled towards the cab, the door of which stood invitingly open. Twice I strove to articulate, but both times my voice failed me. "I'm going on the box with the cabby," he continued, cheerfully, "to make sure he gets the right place. It won't do to have any mistake, you know. Now, then, in you go." And I found myself picked up bodily Her Native City. The misapplication of words in ordinary conversation is one of the positive and peculiar traits of a large proportion of the negro race, due in a measure to their desire to appear "educated" beyond their fellows. An example of this characteristic occurred recently at Birmingham, Ala., when a group of elaborately attired negroes were leisurely sauntering along the handsome streets of that bustling southern city showing the sights to a young woman of the party who resided in another part of the south.- Discussing the various attractions of Birmingham, a dusky beau remarked that "Miss Pearl Luetic was very much delighted with our town, on this her first visit." Promptly, Pearl Luc lie, in all the bravery of fashionable garb and fortified with the knowledge that she was esteemed a "star" guest, replied: "Of course I am. I like this town so much intend to make it my native city."— The Bohemian. Quite Expensive. "That singer has a very high voice, hasn't she?" "I should say so!

Mother's Cares Never Over Her Responsibilities and Worries Orester Than Those of Any Member of the Family. There is no one in the average family, says O. S. Marden, writing in Success Magazine, the value of whose services begins tcr compere with those of the mother, and yet there is no one who Is more generally neglected or taken .advantage of. She muslj always remain at home evenings, and look after^he children, when the others are out having a good • time. Her cares never ceate-She J ^ r e s w c s W for the homework, A at, tha prepajatlon of meats; she has the children's clothes to make or mend, there is company to bo entertained, darning to be .done, aifft a sej>rs or little duties which must often be attended to at odd rifeoments, snatched from her busy ds^e, and she is often* up* working' long After everyone else in Che uenerfi asleep. •; No matter how, loving ojj thoughtful the father may be, the heavier burdens, the greater anxieties, the weightier responsibilities of the home, of the children, always fall on the mother. Indeed, the very virtues of the good mother are a constant temptation to the other members of the family, especially the selfish ones, to take advantage of her. If she were not so kind, so affectionate and tender, so considerate, so generous and ever ready to make all sorts of sacrifices for others; if Bhe^were not so willing to efface herself; if she were more self-assertive; if she stood up for and demanded her rights, she would have a much easier time. forced to spend many weary months on his Iowa farm repairing the. ravages of the Hammerstein goat. .- The goat has always been jealous of the whiskers of the Iowa farmer. The goat has whiskers only ten inches long and time after time his goatlots has been sees gazing enviously at the farmer and then look down despairingly upon his own short and foolish looking beard. Farmer Wilks droppel into a sound slumber after the intermission. The jokes on the stage did not arouse him and the songs did not have the slightest effect upon his sleep. He dreamed of whiskers 40 feet long as he lay on the rug on which he exhibits his whiskers. The few who sat at the tables back in the farmyard paid no attention to the farmer or the whiskers, and they did not heed the goat. But the goat was busy. Softly he crept out of his stall and approached Farmer Wilks. Then he began to browse upon the beard. Farmer Wilks awoke with a cry of pain. The goat had swallowed a part of the beard and was nibbling away at the rest. • Farmer Wilks beat at the goat with his bare hands, crying plteously in a way that attracted the attention of Harry Mock. Harry Mock drove the goat away and rescued what was left of the whiskers. It was impossible to determine the extent of the loss, but it is believed that the goat ate off at least two feet of beard.

Valdez, Cal.—Another instance showing.how the cat comes back has been demonstrated here. A few days ago Mme. Grimalkin, a big Angora, mascot and pet ot the Standard Cooper Company at Landlock, lay quietly sunning herself on a rocky pinnacle 2,220 feet above the sea level and near the mine works, when a bald eagle swooped down and carried her away. The mine foreman was a witness to the abduction and1 intently watched the eagle and its prey as they soared over the mountain tops. The sad fate of the cat was discussed in the bunkhouse for three nights, when the sudden jangling of the telephone bell announced from a distance a little more than two miles that the cat had come back. Mme. Grimalkin was a sorry-looklng sight. Her long hair was disheveled and in spots her mutilated skin was bare. How far she was carried and how she escaped her captor she can not tell. It may be she killed the bird When the eagle swooped dowoj and carried the cat away the mine! foreman asserts both cat and eagle *must have gone 20 miles, for both were lost to view only on account of the failure of vision to follow, Cholera, ^nforhnk.

ORIGIN Of a Famous Human FoooV The story of the great discoveries or inventions is always of interest. An active brain worker who found himself hampered by lack of bodily strength and vigor and coald not carry out the plans and enterprises he knew how to conduct, was led to study Various foods and their effects npoa the human system. In other words, before he could carry out his plans he had to find a food that would carry hiavsfente and renew his physical and mental strength. He knew that a-food whieh-wse a brain and nerve builder «(rataer than a mere fat maker) was universally needed. He knew that meatvrtfh»%h* average man does not#accomplian the desired results. He, bfiw that the soft gray substance in brain and nerve centers is made from Albumen and Phosphate of Potaan obtained from food. Then he started to solve the problem. Careful and extensive experiments evolved *Gfape-Nuta;, the now famous food. It contains the brain and nerve building food elements In condition for easy digestion. The result o t eating Qrape-kaU daily Is easily seen in a markedstlfrSihess and marked activity of the brain and nervous system, making H a pleasure for one to carry an the daily duties without fatigue or exhaustion.

DESTROYING THE BUGS' NESTS Contrivance for the Destruction Plant-Destroying Insects and Their Nests. of Take a piece of tin or sheet iron and make it into a sort of funnel; the wider the opening at the top the better it will be. Fasten this funnel to any pole of sufficient length to reach the caterpill a r w eb.s, a n d drive a wire nail up through the pole at A so that the sharp end projects an inch or two into the funnel. This is to hold the oil-saturated corn cob which is used to burn the nests. Now, when your machine is complete, light the fire, hold the Are and funnel directly beneath the nest to be burned, and the rest is evident. The great advantage of this device is that the funnel catches all caterpillars which fall. Max M. Lutton. Scarcity of Farm Help. The great problem of farming communities to-day is the scarcity of farm help, which makes It increasingly difficult for the farmer to loave home. It hardly seems possible that within a few hours' ride of our great cities, help cannot be secured, but our farmer friends assure us that it Is easier to pick bank notes off blackberry bushes than to find a man to milk cows and take care of stock on the farm—and yet there are thousands In the cities who are serving long hours at unwholesome work for the merest pittance, who might regain health and manhood by taking up country work.—National Magazino.

Many horses are ruined by being brought Into the barn too hot and left to stand in a cold draught or hitched to a post to stand. A good currying occasionally does aot make a sleek horse. It takes svery-day grooming to open the pores, 3often the skin and produce a good, healthy, sleek coat. The colt's training must begin shortly after birth. A halter should be put oh so he can be caught and handled svery day. Never tease him. Regularity of work counts In everything, and especially in the handling of animals. The horse that is worked regularly acquires strong muscles and tough shoulders. Many farmefs allow their work horses to remain idle for several days ar weeks at a time, and then immediately pnt them Into hard service. It is a better plan to arrange some work for the horses daily. In this way their bodies never become soft wad weak, bene* they seldom become ill or injured and are always in training for efficient s a n i e s . > (qoOTift* wet) About three years aa»i:th^,: United States /department of .apiculture, introfbpatj* new radisb from Japan, wbi*h itnasadiatftly made ita way as something both striking and v«Juab)cu I t i a a » enormoua wait*-#Bimfc*d rad-< i s * wtth- Aeaves two. a»4 three, feet lone. The teed looks lias that of the common radisb. only considerably larger. Tbla radish is known by several names, the most common of which is Sakurajlma. It is claimed to roach the weight of 30 pounds in Japan. The heaviest one they were able to grow at the Rhode Island station weighed IS pounds, and in various tests with seed secured from various places it averaged 15 pounds, which made a pretty good sized radish. It grows about a foot and a half long, and about eighteen inches through. Its leathery Bkin is easily removed, revealing beneath a crystal whiteness, very solid, and in texturelike an extremely fine apple. It tastes like our earliest radishes of the high? est quality. It has; the rare merit of being free from rankness or biting character even in the heat of summer or fall. It never grows corky or pithy and grows equally well in every kind of soil. The Sakurajlma may be eaten in many ways. It is sliced and eaten raw, or may be boiled and served very much as we cook turnips; in China and Japan it is sliced and sprinkled with salt and allowed to stand for about twenty-four hours, then washed and served. The leaves also are edible. They may be cooked as greens, are far more delicate than kale, and are finer for this purpose than any of the well-known greenB used In different portions of the country. Unlike the smaller members of the great radish family, Sakurajlma is at its best in the summer time, when all other early radishes have become uneatable. *Pulled the last of November, after several hard freezes, it proved sweet and palatable. Sea kale fs not what can be termed a new garden vegetable, but it is classed among the "fancy" vegetables. It is not common, beeause an idea has prevailed that it anjiot produce results worth while in less than four years. This has recently been proved an erroneous idea. It is a most delicious vegetable, combining as it does the flavors of asparagus, cauliflower and celery. The edible portions are the naked leaf stalks, which are forced and bleached. They look at first sight like celery stalks, but have a distinctive taste of their own unlike any other vegetable. It may also be cooked and served with drawn butter, in which form it resembles stewed celery, tastes something like blanched asparagus, but has withal a special and delicious flavor all its own. Good Hay for Horse. Many farmers still have the notion that clover hay Is not fit to feed work horseB. It is one of the best of hays for horses. It contains good muscle and energy-producing materials. It is almost twice as rich as timothy, hence a less amount Is needed. A good way to use clover with horses is to feed it half and half with timothy. Clover hay is a good bowel regulator, and is generally beneficial' if fed with caution. J**«r L -——— >; t: * *M* NMev^emaw ">J * 1 |.n Money In Farm Animals. Live stock of all kinds is now on a high basis and no doubt will continue so for some time to come. There is money in growing farm animals, both for the animals themselves and for the good they do in producing fertilizer at home. Keep all young stock growing on pasture, and do not be afraid to feed a little grain to supplement the grass ration. Take Care of the Colts. Don't let the colts go out into pasture skin poor. Keep them in good flesh with-hay and grain foods. Corn and clover hay are about the best feeds Cor these young animals, and they will eat them all the year round. Dry clover hay is relished by all est* tie and horses even when on good summer pasture, and it is a good thing to give them a daily feed of i t A Good Rotation. A good rotation for mixed farming is wheat, clover, meadow one year, cow pasture for one year, corn and oats one year. This makes a six-year rotation. Where there are permanent pastures on the farm one year can be cut out by not pasturing the clover the second year. Asparagus Seed. Asparagus seed is slow to germinate but it will nearly all grow, nevertheless. It will start quicker if it is first soaked in warm water. Radish seed mixed with it will mark the rows so a cultivator cam be used.

They didn't consult her romance as much as their own Interest They had two children and a dog, and they figured on making the old maid work for her board and lodgings. She fell into the trap, but not to her detriment. One of the male guests of the hotel, who might not have noticed her In any other walk, saw her as nurse and dog guardian and made advances. This guest was darkly supposed to be an actor—a u actor who played great parts and made a great success of his Job, but who was there incog, and wished to remain so. The other guests were respecting this wish, but following him about with bated breath. Actors sometimes get queer notions Into their heads, and Mr. Melnotte got One into his. It was that Miss Sarah would make 'the greatest Juliet he ever saw on the stage. She had the form, the voice, the eyes, the nose, the chin and the toes. All that was lacking were cash and a manager and the removal ct Just one tiny doubt—a doubt no larger than the head of a brass pin. Did she hare the necessary romance? If she did, then all was well; if aha didn't then alas! It has been stated that Miss Sarah did have romance and doted on it, but the next thing was to prove it to the actor. She took two days to cogitate and then went ahead. The hotel was suironndad by woods on three side*. One morning Miss Sarah left the wtdiaperlng dog and the howling cbisdron behind and started for the green WOO* and was soon lost to alght. She would be missed, aaardaad far, found and be talked of aa romantic. Miss Sarah was mlaoad. The Idea waa that she had boon drowned. More Chan naif the guaoai turned oat to drag too bottom of the lake. The actor was not one of them. Coincident with fhe alarm be had boon told by a fat woman that Mlaa Sarah hadn't a dollar to ber name. One woman assarted her belief that the missing female bad eloped with a tin peddler that had bean seen driving past the hotel at an early morning hour, and in woman said that any young lady that would leave a dog and two children to weep and wall by themselves should be severely dealt with on bar return, dead or alJve. These opinions were expressad to the actor for the purpose of drawing him out, but he refused to be drawn. He had just sat down to a mint julep with two straws in it, and why worry? Mlaa Sarah had entered the wood with ber heart aflame with romance. She bustled ber way along for half a mile and then halted for the actor to arrive at the head of a rescuing party. He didn't arrive. She waited for an hour and then started to walk back. Her feelings were hurt, and she lost the points of the compass and became lost for good. When she discovered this fact she called and screamed, but only the chipmunks and the woodpeckers answered. She ran this way and stumbled over roots. She ran that way and went splashing into n creek. There was romance in the greenwood, but it was farther on. All that long, long day Miss Sarah was lost In the depths. It was almost sundown when her good genius finally guided her to a clearing with a log cabin in the midst of it. Seated at the door of the cabin was a middle aged man in homespun. He rose up and addressed her as "marm" and wanted to know all about it. When he had been told he declared that It was the romanticist thing ha had ever heard of. In her wanderinga she bad walked seven* miles. She had escaped boars and "Injuns" and wildcats, and if she wasn't whut they called a heroine then he didn't know a turnip from » "tater bug." Mlaa Sarah waa tired, and she rested. She waa hungry, and he fad her on pudding and milk. She wanted to get back to the hotel and enjoy nor triumph, and he yoked up his oxen to the lumbar wagon and drove her there through the moonlight The guest* saw bar coming and got ready to renal ve ber.

I do not pretend to give swell a sum; I only lend tt> to you. Whan you shall return to your country you cannot fail of getting Into some bind of business that will in time enable you to pay all your debts. In that ease when you meet with another honest man In similar distress you must pay me by lending this sum to him, enjoining him to dlsebaige the debt by a like operation when he shall be able and shall meet with another opportunity. I hope it may then go through many hands before it meets with a knave to stop its progress. This Is a trick of mine for doing a deal of good ,, with little money." 4 « : Noo3 No. 4 J1 -7 afM»i* a*»* • c « 4 coi > f o * 2 S e A l l kawtUH OtaHfoattju* <UftS)*tCo«t, Isanltftft' Muftlto Skirt* and G o w n * the S1«20 Quality to d o p e Setturdsxy • • 8 8 e A l l G r o c e r ! * * a n d Shoo* * t Good Bice, So; Raisins, 8c; •Special Price* Corn Flakes, 7c; Pkg Oat Meal, 22c Produce Wanted Sales Cash What a Memory 1 One rainy day in spring au old Yorkshire fisherman returned to his native village after an absence of flfteec years and fearfully sought the bouse [ which sheltered his deserted wife. Entering without knocking, he seated himself near the open door, took a long and vigorous pull at his dirty clay pipe and nodded jerkily to "f owd woman." "Mornin', Maria," he said, with affected unconcern. She looked up from the potatoes sni was peeling and tried to utter the scathing tirade she bad daily rehearsed since his departure, but it would not come. *Ben," she said instead, once more ming ber wo*, "bring the sen wss «afe and rg to t' fire an Ah'll darn that hole Shy jersey.

Wordsworth's Joko. "I never made a joke but once in my life," confessed Wordsworth, and the rest of the story leaves one in doubt whether he knew a joke when he saw it "Meeting a peasant neighbor one day, he asked me, 'Ha' ye seen mj wife, Meestar Wordsworth?' 'My good fellow,' said I, 'I didn't so much as know that you had a wife.'" Truth or Fiction? "Ah, what a difference there is." remarked the cynic wearily, "between courtship and marriage!

Since that MClent t ^ . * h j » n erring Antony wandered after ^Ug^t; love the elusive tnd suspicious blo*d4 Jaai menaced the quiet home of <w<W|j|'sj||jP man. It muat be assumed, affWTVi that Antony knew nothtBk ot ttojgi***, else the Roman senate was sadly deficient All those since who have indulged in the cup that cheers have been wiser in their generation than that New York benedict recently accused of non* support by a wife expert in the reading'of tea-dreg mysteries. The evidence was so patent that the guilty wretch sought no other defease than a quarrel. With sheer masculine strategy, which is alleged to have included cleaning out the house, he barred the door against his subtle feminine half, says the Washington Post. Whereupon came the airing of these things before that most unsensitive of persons—the local magistrate —a low-brow who would not accept the testimony of a cup "turned three times slowly with a wish." The brute sided with the man, of course. The result achieved by such a^ dispensation of justice is not one to be desired. The domestic war has subsided to a feigned peace—a sort of armed neutrality. Such well-founded suspicion will never die. The only thing proved by it is that men will hang together, unless it be that there are those who should bar Oolong from the home. Moral: Use a strainer. The unwarrantable criticism of the duke of Norfolk which arose fn shine quarters when it was announced that he had sold his famous Holbein—a portrait of Queen Christina of Denmark— and that the painting would go out of England, is now silenced. The criticism was unwarranted because the picture belonged to the duke and he had given the National gallery an option on it which was not used, says the Troy Times. It appears that the purchaser of the Holbein is not an American, but a German, and that the price paid is |300,000. Very well, the duke received a round figure, which would have tempted many another man to part with a scrap of canvas. The action of the duke which shuts the mouths of his critics is his gift of a park to the city of Sheffield. The property covers 60 acres and is the only park In the city. It is worth more than the duke received for the picture. The fortune of $5,000,000 which was acquired by Christopher Ma#ee, politician and newspaper publisher of Pittsburg, who passed away several years ago, has been released by his wife's death and will now go to the ultimate purpose for which it was devised by its accumulator—the foundation and maintenance of a hospital for women. The institution is to bear the «ame of the testator's mother, Elizabeth Steel Magee. One of its features will be a department for women in distress, who are to receive free treatment at all times and be asked no questions. "Chris" Magee did not escape sharp criticism while alive, but even the most inveterate of those who were his political enemies must admit the excellence of the great purpose to which he saw fit to apply his money. The April Are loss in the United States *and Canada amounted to 119,- 345,300, making an aggregate of $72,- 006,700 for the first quarter of 1909. Compared with the two years last past this shows a better state of things,, which, it is hoped, may continue. The fire loss for the first four months Abt 1908 was $90,804,000, and for the corresponding period of 1907, 186,426,200. m*mn*T*m**m THE»11 An old inmate of an almshouse in New York, aged 86, who had never in the course of her life seen an automobile before, fell in a dead faint in the street when one whizzed by her, with the horn tooting. When she recovered she told the doctor who had attended her that she had been in hell and had seen Satan. Some of the victims of the speed maniacs would not quarrel with her diagnosis of the situation. The truth is the young man who said the education he got. at Yale was a "detriment" to him didn't get any there. The "detriment" came from fooling away his time at Yale instead of doing Yale work. We trust that the coming aeroplane of commerce will learn to emit a prettier noise than "Honk!" THE MILAN TRAdtOY VltWftO BY THE WIDOW WITH GLADNESS. MAY ESCAPE PUNISHMENT State Treasury is Short of Funds Again and Institutions Will bs Very Hard Up. Through an interpreter, Wednesday, Mrs. Pallet, wife of the man slain la Milan Tuesday night by John Mascaras, the BUgar beet worker, who was found in the Paltcz home, told the police that she is glad her husband Is dead. She said she was afraid of him and thought he would kill her. She also claimed that he killed a man in the old country and had served time for it there. She refused to bury the body, and a brother and sister of the dead man will take it to Detroit for burial. Mascaros is still in University hospital, Ann Arbor, and the physicians state that he has a good chance for recovery, although they have not yet been able to locate the bullet in his back. He told the physicians he used to board at the Palicz home in Delray and the trouble started there over a year ago. He says he shot in self defense and the prosecutor declares he probably will not be held for the death of Palicz. State T r e a s u r y 8hy. The state treasury is short of funds. There are now $300,946.67 left In the general fund, but as the new fiscal year begins Thursday, and as there are a number :of appropriations forthcoming for prisons and asylums, it is expected they will take nearly all of this sum. The loan of $E50,000 authorized by the legislature has not yet been made, however, but notwithstanding this it is expected that from now till the middle of January, there, will be a large shortage. The question which confronts the treasury officials is how to remedy the matter. It is figured that by the time the taxes begin to oome In, in January, the deficit will be almost a million. Looks D a r k for Depositors. At the investigation into the affairs of the defunct bank of Ironwood progresses, the situation looks worse for the depositors and no better for the accused officials of the Institution. Large quantities of securities held by the bank are said to be practically without value, and it is estimated that no less than $600,000 of the depositors' cash was spent In the purchase of almost worthless paper. President H. P. Jahn and Assistant Cashier George Braddow, put under arrest by a deputy United States marshal, have secured their release under bonds of 125,000 and $10,000 respectively. Cashier £. T. Lawson, however, whose bond was placed at $60.- 000 found more difficulty in getting it and was paroled in the custody of the marshal while he Is hunting for bondsmen. The men who are checking up the securities of the Institution assert that the completion of the work will^be followed by some startling revelations in regard to the management of the bank. Costs Some Money. Friday the secretary of state's department was shipping to each member of the house of representatives 100 copies of the Michigan manual, and to each senator 200 copies. The department is obliged to pay cartage tnd freight on these shipments, amounting to a large sum. Deputy Secretary of State Mears dug up an old, forgotten Btatute which permits the department to draw $300 to pay express and freight bills, and is using this amount to help get the legislators their literature. Critics of the legislature point to 'the fact that with a decrepit general fund, now is the time for the members to be really self-sacrificing, and notify the department of state to hold the books for awhile. They have scant hopes, however, that this will he done when they remember the accounts turned In for extra pay during the recent session. Saloontsta Sued. Two Grand Rapids women have started $10,000 damage suits against saloonkeepers of the county. Mrs. Georgia De Clopper asks that Ohas. W. Baker, of Byron Center, and Anton Bieber, of North Dorr, give her that amount, because, she alleges, they sold liquor to her husband, and he later was struck by a L/ake Shore train and lost all the fingers of his right hand, besides sustaining severe cuts about the head. Mrs. Jessie Evans RayR that on January 25, 1909, after she had posted notices with them and other saloonlsti not to sell him liquor, Orin Lake and John Hart, of Cedar Springs, furnished whisky to Claude Emmons, her son, and the latter either fell or laid down on the G. R. AY I. tracks and was killed by a train.

It would seem that nature is determined to blot out these cities1, but recently two of the fairest in the world. While minor shocks have been of frequent occurrence in Sicily In the last six months, Wednesday night they became more serious and caused considerable alarm. The most severe quakes came at 7:20 and 7:26 Thursday morning, and were similar to the fatal disturbances of December, being accompanied by the roaring noises that added to the terror of that fateful night The population again fled in fear and cries of terror rent the arr. The people hurried to the..ppen places of the olty and the surrounding country, praying to the saints that their lives might be spared. It is as yet impossible accurately to determine the number of casualties. Some of the reports are alarming, but they cannot be verified. So far aa is positively known only a few people were hurt. One woman wa* killed by a falling wall and a child was seriously injured. Gradually, as the confidence of the people returned, Messina had acquired a population of something over 26,000, but today the people again are in terror and do not feel themselves safe, even in the temporary huts erected for their shelter. They lack food and covering and are camping ont under trees and in oaves in pitiful and desolate groups. Sailors, soldiers and policemen have been seat out through the district to prevent looting and give courage to the people. Between 8 o'clock last night and 7:20 o'clock this morning eight shocks were recorded and the instruments at the observatory have registered a total of 10 shocks of varying severity since 7:20. News received from the provinces indicates that some damage has been wrought there, but it is as yet impossible correctly to estimate the ex tent of the disaster. W a a Leon Drowned? That the body of a Chinaman found la the Hudson river last night is that of Leon Ling, the alleged murderer of Elsie Sigel, la affirmed by a reporter who viewed the body today In the Fordham morgue. "This is undoubtedly the body of Leon Ling," aaid the reporter. "I knew him well at Fort George all last summer. He was running a ping-pong game there. I recognize him partlc ularly by his hair and generally by his appearance. If I could see his teeth, I could make this identification doubly positive^t^Bave no doubt tliat this is Ling." In the effort to fully establish the identity of the corpse several other persons who. knew Leon well were taken to the morgue today and viewed the body, and if necessary, members of the Sigel family will be. asked to aid the police In this respect. The hight, weight, complexion and certain peculiarities of physical appearance of the dead man correspond with those attributed to Leon in life. The absence of clothing on the drowned man, except its undershirt, was. one of the baffling features of the case. That the body was absolutely nude when taken from the river indicates to the police that the Chinaman was not a suicide. Had he committed suicide, Capt. Carey contends, he would not have stripped himself of his clothing. The fact that the body was unclothed showed that there was an effort to prevent the identification. Sugar Trust Indictments. The American Sugar Refining Co., six of its directors and two other individuals were indicted by a federal grand jury in New York Thursday on a charge of conspiracy in restraint of trade in violation of the Sherman anti-trust law.

It is as old fashioned to cut off a coat half way - between the knees and hips as- between* knees and- ankles. Coats are single-breasted, rarely double- breasted. New models still show straight panel back*, which hang for several inches lower than the sides. These panels are also pointed as well as straight. Sleeves are still small and reach to the wrist, and many of them show flat, fitted cuffs. Three-button cutaway coats- are made in all materials. Re vers are often omitted. Flat triming is pirt around the neck and a Dutch collar of baby Irish lace Is added at the back.

DOCTORS SAVE LIHLEFELLOW Lad ts Unconscious and Almost Pur pie, from fttramjulation When Finally Discovered Suspended from Limb of Tree. Atlanta, Ga.—An attempt to carry out a scene in a moving picture show, where a hanging occurred, came near proving fatal for Oirard Williams, aged six years, the little son of Mr. and Mrs. M. G. Williams the other aft-: ernoon, when he was left hanging te a tree by a strap fastened about his neck, in the back yard of his grandmother, Mrs. W- A. Williams, on Spring street When taken down, the little boy was blue in the face, every muscle was rigid and he was in an unconscious condition. Four physicians were hurriedly called, and after working heroically for two hours, the little fellow began to regain consciousness. With perfect quiet and rest, the physicians Btate, there is a good chance for his recovery. Glrard, together with his little brother and Philip Green, a neighbor's boy, all about the same age, were playing in the back yard of Mrs. Williams, the former children's grandmother, shortly after noon, when it was suggested, it is said, that they carry out the adventures of a man flashed upon the curtain of a moving picture theater. In this play the little boys had seen a man hung up to a tree by bis neck, and afterward cut down, without Buffering any evil effects. A tree, with inviting limb and a convenient coal house, is located in the back yard. All,that was needed was a rope or strap with which the experience of the man in the moving picture show could be Imitated. , The little fellows thought of a leather * v 9 HAT W e a l THEY THESE FOR iA . v to HatfMnlrtf s at '^Meetings! The Boys'Strung the Lad to a Tree. strap which they had seen in Mrs. Williams' house, and it was secured. Just who placed the strap about Glrard's neck and how he was suspended from the limb could not be learned. After leaving Glrard in his perilous position, the little brother and the little Green boy went into the house. "Where is Glrard, boys?" asked Miss Green, a sister of the little boy's father. "He is out In the back yard hanging to a tree!" was the innocent reply. With the gravest or fears. Miss Green and a servant rushed out of the house aid into the back yard. The sight that met their gase sent a thrill of horror through their minds. Glrard was tied so high that it was impossible to cut the strap, and the servant was compelled to break the limb, and let him down as tenderly ss possible. She then unbuckled the strap from about his neck. Girard was unconscious, his muss e s were rigid and his face was almost purple from strangulation. He was tenderly borne into the house and physicians were called. The little boy was still unconscious when the physicians arrived. Some bromide was administered, ice was placed about his head, and a vigorous mechanical massage was given, and the physicians succeeded in bringing Glrard back to consciousness. 8af* Bet.

'There really hi nothing to Bay," rw plied the cabinet oflcex. "We diet cussed nothing of especial importance." "Do you mean to say you did not discuss politics?" the newspaper man queried. , The postmaster general burst into laughter. When he recovered bis usual serenity he>said: "Do you suppose we were all muxsled?" Here's a Good One. A friend of mine told me of a curious experience. He was carefull} stalking a big bull elephant in a large herd, when they got his wind, and a big cow elephant charged him. Me Jumped behind a large tree as the elephant reached him, and, being unable to stop herself in time, the elephant drove her tusks with such force into the tree that they snapped off close to her head. The- elephant wss stunned for a moment, but lickily turned and galloped after the fast retreating herd, leaving him the possessor of some 80 pounds of ivory, valued at about $#50.—Circle Magazine.

The Marital Grasshopper. What is a grasshopper? The latest definition comes from western Australia. Domestic servants are almost unprocurable there, and wives have to do nearly all their own household work. The consequence Is that they are compelled to recuperate at the Seaside in summer. In their absence the husbands have to prepare their own meals and do domestic duty generally. Husbands BO engaged have come to be locally known as "grasshoppers." No doubt the word is the husband of the more familiar "grass widow."—London Chronicle. Cheering Him Up. "Bill," said the invalid's friend, "I've come to cheer you up a bit like.

The War Department has had its attention called recently to an unusual citizenship case. It is that of an enlisted man of the coast artillery coips. He came to this country in 1903, at which time he declared his intention of becoming a citizen of the United States and gave his residence as Brooklyn, N. Y. He enlisted in the army and since 1904 has been employed on a vessel engaged in planting mines. The vessel is now at San Francisco where he applied for completion of his naturalization, but the application was denied on the ground that service on a mine planter could not be considered residence in the United States. As the War Department has no jurisdiction in naturalization cases it will be up to the courts of New York to de~ cfde this interesting case. An IntytfttHig Letter •saaaaaaeiaw C From Nebraska. DiUer, Nebr., Juue29,Q9 F. L. And rows, Piaokaey, Mich. Dear Sir: * Enclosed pisase find the owl yon baye been looking for, and by obserymg date of draft, ybu wilt notice that it was my intention to remit some time ago. We are well and enjoying this "good old summer time." I tell you, F. U, that things look mighty good to us in this section. And why should it not? Some months ago I read the result of investigation and analysis ot the soil ot all the agricultural sections of tbe earth, in wbioh tbe statement was made that the South Piatt region in Nebraska has tbe most fertile and productive soil. The county in which we live is in the heart of the South Platte region. And further, reports from every section of our state today without exception, indicate the most productive and prosperous year this state has ever known. I wish you could see the farms which about SO years ago, cost the settlers S2.50 an acre. Little of this today can be bought for less than $100 an acre, most of tbe farms can not be touched for the latter sum. Two weeks ago I passed .the finest 80 acre field of wheat I ever 6aw. The entire section, said a neighboring farmer without a* building on it, and without fences, except two barbed wires around each 80 acres, wonld sell for 9140 an acre; and e van at that figure he said, the land wonld pay for itself, with the crops it raises in 6 years or lObS. Yea, this land of com and wheat and alfalfa ie grand. We have beenindulging ourselves in cherries to onr hearts content for tbe first time in years, as the trees in our yard have yielded us between 4 and 5 bushel!. We feet almost like farmers on a small scale, as we have running in onr little orchard a mother bog, 6 pigs 9 months old, and 9 pigs 6 weeks old, and some 60 chicken*. 1 think I told yon |att fall what a tough proposition the Diller school had been for two years previous to my coming. Well I never enjoyed a years work more than I have the year just ended. I have the satisfaction of hearing from every source, that I have given Diller the best sehool it ever bad, and for next year, I was voted an increase of 910 a month and at tbe annual meeting yesterday the district voted me another teacher in the High School, making 7 teachers in our school, 3 in the High school. Both cf the assistants whom I shall have in tbe high school next year, graduated from the ?tate University this month, Nebraska's school system is on a very high standard. The free high school law which the Dispatch stated is to become operative in Mich igan next year, by which pupils of the country schools, passing the 8th grade examination, may have their tuition paid by their district in some nearby high school, has been in operation in this state for years; but in this state the pupil can enter any accredited high school in tbe state and tbe home district must pay the tuition of $3 per month. Our high school received nearly $400 tuition from such pupils from other districts during tbe past year. There is but one other accredited high school than ours in the county and but one other snob school within 20 miles; so yon see we are nicely situated and draw foreign pu« pi Is from 8 miles on tbe north, 7 on the east, 7 on tha south, 6 on the west. Would like to spend a joonth in Michigan tbis summer bnt must fore go tbe pleasnre. Whtn I went to Michigan last summer I took with me the biggest appetite tor fish I ever accumulated but I find myself again laboring under an eltoost equally heavy burden of tbe same> kind.

C. t e C l u i g * Geo 8YNOP8I8. The story opens with the shipwreck of the steamer on which Miss Genevieve Leslie, an American heiress, Lord Wlnthrope, a n Englishman, a n d Tom Blake, a brusque American, were passengers. The three were tossed upon a n uninhabited Island and were the only ones not drowned. Blake recovered from a drunken stupor. Blake, shunned on t h e - b o a t because of his roughness, became a hero as preserver of the helpless pair. The Englishman was suing tor the hand of Miss Leslie. Blake started to swim back to the ship to recover what was left. Blake xetoroed safely. Winthrope wasted his last match on a cigarette, for Which he was scored by Blake: Their first meal was a dead fish. The trio started a ten mile, hike for higher land. Thirst attacked them. Blake was compelled to carry Miss Leslie on account of weariness. He taunted Winthrope. They ew tared the Jungle. That night was pasaei roosting- high in a tree. Th Ing they descended to broke. in£e..e run. In their terror they •paid no heed to Blake\ command to stop.

"Withdraw your aunty! There's no leopard going to tackle us out here in open ground this time of day. The sneaking tomcat! If only I had a match, I'd show him how we smoke rat holes." "Mr. Winthrope spoke of rubbing sticks to make fire," suggested Miss Leslie. "Make sweat, you mean. But we may as well try It now, if we're going to at all. The sun's hot enough to fry eggs. We'll go back to a shady place and pick up sticks on the way." Though there was shade under the cliff within some 600 feet, they had on cocoa nuts, th» only procurable food Miss Leslie showed a liking for Blake, but detested his roughness. Led by BSake they established a nome in some cllrfs. Blake found a fresh water spring.

Here they gathered a quantity of branches, even Miss Leslie volunteering to carry a load. All was thrown down in a heap near the cliff, and Blake squatted beside it, penknife in hand. Having selected the dryest of the larger sticks, he bored a hole in one side and* dropped in a pinch of powdered bark. Laying the stick in the full glare of the sun, he thrust a twig into the hole and began to twirl it between his palms. This CHAPTER VIII.—Continued. "They'll be dry in a day or two. Say, Winthrope, you might fetch some of those stomas—>size of a ball. I used to be a fiancy pitcher when I was a kid, and wernight scare up a rabbit or something." "I play cricket myself. But these stones—1" . - ; . , . . "Better'n a gun, when you havent got the gun. Come on. We'll go In a bunch, after all, «n case I need stones." With due consideration for Winthrope's ankle—not for Winthrope— Blake set so slow a pace that the halfmilfja walk consumed over half an hour. But his smouldering Irritation was soon quenched when they drew near the green thicket at the foot of the cleft. In the almost deathlike stillness of mid-afternoon, the sound of trickling water came to their ears, clear and- musical. "A spring**., shouted Blake. "I guessed right Look at those green plants add gra^tfi thtre'sthe channel where it ruml^out In the sand and dries up." The others followed him eagerly as he puBhed in among the trees. They saw no running water, for the tiny rill that trickled down'the ledges was , matted over with vines. But at the foot of the slope lay a pool, some ten yards across, and overshadowed by the 'surrounding trees. There was ho underbrn8h, and the ground was trampled bare as a floor. "By Jove," said Wfnthrope; "see the tracks! There must have been a drove of sheep about." "Deer, you mean," replied Blake, bending to examine the deeper prints at the edge of the pool. "These am't sheep tracks. A lot of them are arger.* "Could you not uncover the brook?" asked Miss Leslie. "If animals have * boon drinking here, one would prefer t oieaaer water." ' K "Sure," assented Blake. "If you're ; fame for a climb, and can wait a few minutes, we'll get it out of the spring Itself. We've got to go up anyway, to get at our poultry yard!" "Here's a place that looks like a path," called Winthrope,- who had circled about the edge of the pool to the farther side. Blake ran around beside him and . stared at the tunnel-like passage which wound up the limestone ledges beneath the overarching thickets. "Odd place, is it not?" observed Winthrope. "Looks like a fox run. only larger, you know." "Too low for deer, though -and their hoofs would have cut up ttia moss and ferns more. Let's get a elose look." As he spoke, Blake stooped and climbed a few yards up the trail to an overhanging ledge, four or five fe«t high. Where the trail ran up over this break in the slope the stone was bare of all vegetation. Blake laid his club on the top of the ledge, and was about to vault after it, when, directly beneath his nose, he saw the print of a great catlike paw, outlined in dried mud. At the same instant a deep growl came rumbling down tho "fox Crept Back Down the Trail. movement he kept up for several minutes; but whether he was unable to twirl the twig fast enough or whether the right kind of wood or tinder was lacking all his efforts failed to produce a spark. Unwilling to accept the failure, Winthrope insisted upon trying in turn, and pride held him to the task until he was drenched with sweat. The result was the same. "Told you so," Jeered Blake from where he lay in the shade. "We'd stand more chance cracking stones together." "But what shall we do now?" asked Miss Leslie. "I am becoming very tired of cocoanuta, and there seems\ to be nothing else around here. Indeed, I think this is all such a waste of time. If we had walked straight along the shore this morning we might have reached a town." "We might, Miss Jenny, and then, again, we mightn't. I happened to »/erhaul the captain's chart—Quill- .VAne, Mozambique—that's all for hundi «ds of miles. Towns on this coast are about as thick as hen's-teeth." "How about native villages?" demanded Winthrope. 'Oh, yes; maybe I'm fool enough to go into a wild "nigger town without a gun. Maybe I didn't talk with fellows down on the Rand." "But what shall we do?" repeated Miss Leslie, with a little frightened catch in her voice. She was at last beginning to realize what this rude break In her sheltered, pampered life might mean. "What shall we do?

It is no harder to say Winthrope." "You're off, there," rejoined Blake. "But look here, I'll make If Win, if you figure out what we ought to do next." "Really, Blake, that would aot be half bad. They—er—-they called me Win at Harrow." "That so? My Bngllso cntral, went to Harrow—Jimmy ScarbridgeA "Lord Jaues!—your chum?£J») "He started in like you, sort of toplofty. But he. chummed alt right—after I took .out aflot of his British, starch with a good walloping." "Oh, really now, Blake, you can't expect any ono with brains to believe that,- you know!" "too: I don't know, you know,—and I don't know if you've got any brains, you know, Here's your chance 4o> show us.

Bar to wade across—sharks and alligators; then swampy ground—malaria, mosquitoes, thorn jungle. Guess the hands of both of you are still tore enough, by their look." "If only I had a pot of cold cream!" sighed Miss Leslie. "IT only I had a hunk of jerked beef!" echoed Blake. "I say, why couldn't we chance it for the night around on the seaward face of the cliff?" asked Winthrope. "I noticed a place where the ledges overhang—almost a cave. Do you think it probable that any wild beast would venture so close to the sea?" "Can't say. Didn't see any tracks; so we'll chance it for to-night. Next?" '"By morning I believe my ankle will be in such shape that I could go back for the string of cocoanuts which we dropped on the beach." "I'll go myself, to-day, else we'll have no supper. Now we're getting down to bedrock. If those nuts have not been washed away by the tide, we're fixed for to-night; and for two meals, such as they are. But what next? Even the rain pools will be dried up by another day or so." "Are not sea-birds good to eat?" Inquired Miss Leslie. "Some." "Then, if only we could climb the cliff—might there not be another place?" "No; I've looked at both sides. What's more, that spotted tomcat has got a monopoly on our water supply. The river may be fresh at low tide; but we've got nothing to boil water In, and such bayou stuff is just concentrated malaria." "Then we must find water else* where," responded Misa Leslie. "Might we not succeed if we went on to the other ridge?" "That's the ticket You've got a headpiece, Miss Jenny! It's too late to start now. But first thing to-morf row I'll take a run down that way, while you two lay around camp and see if you,.can twist,.aome sort of flshline out of cocoahut fiber. By braid* ing. your hair, Miss Jenny, you can spare us your hair-pins for hooks." "But, Mr. Blake, I'm afraid—I'd rather you'd take us with you.

The Leopards' Den. • ' - > • - ? . ; • • • # ' ( HILE Blake made a successful trip for the abandoned cocoanuta, hla companions leveled the stones beneath the ledges chosen by Winthrope, and gathered enough dried sea-weed along the talus to soften the hard beds. Soothed by the monotonous wash of the sea among the rocks, even Mies Leslie slept well. Blake, who had insisted that she should retain his coat was wakened by the chilliness preceding the dawn. Five minutes later they started „pja their journey. The starlight glimmered on the waves and shed a faint radiance* ovei the rocka. This and their knowledge of the way enabled them to pick a path along the foot of the cliff without difficulty. Once on the beach, they swung along at a smart gait, Invigorated by the cool air. Dawn found them half way to their goal. Blake called a halt when the first red streaks shot up the eastern sky; All stood waiting until the quickly following sun sprang forth from th« sea. Blake's first act was to glance from one headland to the other, estimating their relative distances. Hii grunt of satisfaction was lost ia Winthrope's exclamation: "By Jove, look at the cattle!" (TO B E CONTINUED.) YOUNGSTERS TAUGHT TO SMOKE Two Centuries Ago Engjieh Children Carried Pipes to School, The practice of juvenile smoking In this country in the seventeenth century was practically universal, sayi the London Chronicle. Jorevin de Rochefort a French traveler of that period, in an account published in 1671 gives a description of an evening he spent in Worcester. He was catechised by one of the townsmen as to the habits of the French poeple. "While we were talking about the town," he writes, "he asked me if J t was the custom in France, as in England, that when the children went to school they carried In their satchels with their books a pipe of tobacco which their mother took care to fill early In the morning, it serving them instead ol breakfast, and that at the accustomed hour every one laid aside his book to light his pipe, the master smoking with them and teaching them how to hold their pipes and draw their to bacco, thus accustoming them to It from their youths, believing it absolutely necessary for a man's health." The Public Eye. In a little more we came to an open space, very thronged. "The Public Eye!" shouted the megaphone man of our party. There were some curious people within the space, but even more curious were those just outside. Of these latter we thought certain women especially interesting; they were busily neglecting their families In order to get into the Public Eye. A pathos attached to another group ol women who had been In the Public Eye and could never be happy out of it, though they couldn't In the least tell why. Positively funny were a few men who kept trying, by a variety of droll devices, to break.into the Public Eye. "Vice-presidential candidates!" our megaphone man explained.—Puck. A Little Learning.

AN OLD TIMER Has Had Experiences, A woman who haa used Pottum since it came upon the market knowa from experience the wisdom ff. using Postum in place of coffee if oso values health and a clear hrain. She says: v "At the time Postum was first put on the market I Wat suffering from nervous dyspepsia, and my physician had repeatedly told me not to use tea or -coffee. Finally I decided to take his advice and try Postum. I got a package and had It carefully prepared, finding it delicious to the taste. So I continued ita use and verj soon its beneficial effects convinced me of ita value, for I got well of my nervousness and dyspepsia. "My husband had been drinking coffee all his life until*'it had affected his nerves terribly, and I persuade*} ' him to shift to Postum. It waa eaejito get him to make the change f i V the Postum Is so delicious. It cef» tainly worked wonders for him. "We soon learned that Postum does not exhilarate nor depress and does not stimulate, but steadily and honestly strengthens the nerves and the stomach. "To make a long story short, our entire family continued to use Postum with satisfying results, as shown in our fine condition of health and we have noticed a rather unexpected improvement in brain and nerve power." Increased brain and nerve power always follow the use of Postum in place of coffee, sometimes In a very marked manner. "There's a Reason."

By the process the plant la Jeprlved of quite a number of its toed* Ing roots aad for a time is cut off from Its water supply; consequently it is necessary to exercise considerable care with the plant until It again besomea established in tbe soit To help Insure this an abundant supply of moisture in the soil aft all times is essential to keep the plant from wilting and incite It to take hold of the soil Quickly. In sections where irrigation Is practiced the transplanted plants should be irrigated immediately after letting, and frequently afterward until Sanger of their dying out is passed. This can be told by the plants freshening up and starting new leaves. It Is also very essential In setting the plants out to firm the soil well around the roots. This Is very Important and ihould not be neglected. Many plants have failed on account of not doing this. Proper firming of the soil helps to exclude air from the roots and prevents the plants from drying up. In sections where irrigation is hot practiced plants are preferably transplanted during a rainy spell. If this cannot be taken advantage of it will be necessary to water the plants by hand until they are established. When loing this do It thoroughly; a little water Is' sometimes nearly as bad as aone. In moving the young plants from the .seed bed to the field and until set Dut they should be protected from the rays of the sun to prevent wilting. This protection can be given by wrapping the roots up In a wet sack or carrying to the field In a bucket or tub with a little water in the bottom to keep the roots moist. When digging the plants out of the seed bed use a shovel or spade and avoid breaking off as many roots as possible. It is also better to wet the bed first If the plants are very tall It will be well to cut off a part of the top. The operation will not hurt the plant and helps to keep it from wilting, as it prevents excessive evaporation of moisture from the plant through the leaves. Before transplanting the soil should be well prepared, being property fined aad leveled. Plants usually take root more quickly in freshly stirred soil. After the land has been properly, prepared mark off the rows where the • plants are to be set. This may be done if tt Is desired to plant on ridges with a plow; if on the level, by a marker. One thing to keep in mind is to make the rows straight aqjd the proper distance apart. It never pays to crowd plants^ By so doing a crop inferior in quality Is liable to be produced. Transplanting can nearly always be successfully done with most plants if the proper care is observed. Some of the things to keep in mind are: Dig plants carefully, protect them from the sun after digging until transplanted, supply plenty .of water to transplanted plants, set the plants properly in the hole and firm the soil around the roots. 8a I elf y. Salsify is a much neglected crop. Many people are very fond of this vegetable and It 1B just as easy to grow as parsnips. Sow early, thin the plants to three or four inches, and give clean tillage. The roots may be harvested in the fall for winter use, or they may be allowed to remain in the ground until spring. mmpmm**m Gardening Made Interesting. If the beans you are watching happen to be of the "pole" variety, watch the way they climb their pole and then watch the other vines and note tne difference in the way they twine— some going always toward the sun and others in the opposite direction. All vines have a wonderful fascination when one begins to study their habits for their ways of working seem as intelligent and their movements as voluntary as those of a person—but they must be watched to learn these things. Do Not Forget That— It's a great temptation to rush tha work these first warm days; but we may do the soft teams great harm by giving them heavy tasks before they become seasoned. Better go a hit slow. Thunderstorms are coming.

A romantic story of supposed hid den trWurarfc, quite In the style of Ed/gmr Allan Poe, comes from Cfcoenber* in Moravia. The tower of the ancient Rataaua, despite the protests of the Vienna Conservatives, was lately demolished, as it was declared to he unsafe. As the rubbish was being removed a document was found in a hollow stone stating that during the thirty years' war the town funds were bricked up in a certain part of the Rathaus. The place could be seen when at a certain hour on a certain day the shadow of the Rathaus spire fell upon it The town council has resolved to find the shadow by building a scaffold of the same height and form. Much excitement prevails, and many bets are being taken. Some people suppose that the document was inserted by a workman, and they believe that after the war the treasure was recovered. The success of a wireless transmission experiment at Omaha, where 4,000 lamps at the electrical show were lighted for four hours by a current sent to them without wires is something to cause uneasiness among the holders of shares in electric lighting companies, and carry a feeling of satisfaction to municipalities which have refused to be tempted into street lighting ventures. A aneer complaint, made by a citizen of Los Angeles, emphasizes tfye march of progress in this age. The complaint is to the effect that owing to the popularity of aviation- in the city, appropriately named of the Angels, the sand from balloons is thrown down over the lawns and freshlypainted flats, instead ot In the garbage cans provided for city refuse. r - r m — • " I"-T"— . Says the New York law under which the chauffeur was convicted after killing the boy: "The killing of a human being by an act imminently dangerous to others, and evincing a depraved mind, regardless of human life, although without a premeditated design, is punishable by a verdict of murder in the first degree." That seems to fit the case very nicely. ';: i t . " U • •' ..'J : " Boston women ^re discussing the question of whether beauty and brains go together. Ancient history lends its aid to modern gallantry to ma.se the answer easy. Of course they do. The Greeks were noted no iess for their art and philosophy than for their physical graces. Beauty and brains are natural affinities, as much as pork and beans. 55C There are torpedo boats and torpedo boat destroyers for warfare on the sta. And now Japan is credited with having devised an airship destroyer for use in the event of flying machines being utilized for fighting purposes. Invention matched against invention leaves the world very uncertain as to what will come next. A man who shot the Niagara rapMs five times and went over the Horseshoe falls in a barrel died lately of a cold contracted from sitting in a draught To go through such almost certain perils unharmed, merely to succumb to a trivial cause, is but another illustration of the grim irony of fate. Putting poison about in places, especially parks, aside from the question of its legality, is a very dangerous practice, as small children are quite as likely to get hold of it as the animals. Poison is a thing which no circumstances will excuse in any but a very safe and secluded place. Though the present national administration is determined to secure financial economies it will not reduce the number of feathers in the tail of the American eagle on our Justly celebrated gold coinage.

DEADLY ASSAULT INSANE CONVICT 6LA&WKS THI HALLMA8TER OF JACKSON PRISON. DIFFICULT TO SUBDUE, Had Been in Asylum at Ionia for Two Months »t\4 Was Returned to Prison "Cured.* Hallmaster Thompson, of the state prison at Jackson, who was attacked by CharleB Morris, a convict from Detroit, and badly gashed with a knife about the face and head, after the" man had unsuccessfully tried, to brain Keeper Larmie, when the latter hand* ed him his dinner, probably will recover, although he is weak from loss of blood. Larinie was felled with a blow over the head from the cane he had on his arm and which was suddenly seized by the maddened prisoner. Morris then darted dawn the corridor and up the stairway to the guard room, where Hallmaster Thompson saw him and grappled wi«h bim. The convict used his knife wildly on Thompson, who did not give up in spite of his wounds, until he had overpowered Morris. Keeper Larmie escaped with a scalp wound. Morris has once been sent to the asylum for criminal insane at Ionia. This was on October 19, 1908. They kept him there only two months and sent him back. Some weeks ago Dr. Pray noticed that Morris' condition of mind was becoming bad again, and he was ordered placed in a deteution cell, where he was yesterday at the time he assaulted Keeper Larmie. Fiohtlhfl a Boose Parlor. Coral village is all wrought up over the saloon question. So interested are the citizens in driving out the solitary rum shop, the only one in commission there in 25 years, that it is said most of the men forget to go home to meals, and th* women forget to cook for those who do remember. It now looks as though there would be no celebration for July 4, as the other question is taking all the attention of those who in other years have arranged for the jollification. It's all because Harry Pickens started a saloon end was forced to close it after three days' business, as several of the citizens had it declared a nuisance. Pickens is inclined to fight and the battle promisee to be a long one. The Rifle Shooters. It 1B expected that Oapt. William B. Kalmback, of Co. B, will be among the first 15 men to be selected from the best rifle shots at the Michigan National Guard "shoot" at Bailey park, to represent them at Camp Perry. He has been the most consistent performer of the nine members of the Grand Rapids battalion, who have now, at the close of the preliminary round, a score of 248. Lieut. W. H. Comboy, of Cheboygan, who made the record score of the first day's shooting, also was high score man of yesterday, making nine out of 10 bullseyes at 800 yards. The elimination trials have been completed and all except the highest 35 men will be dropped. This leaves out, as well, those who did not succeed in running up a score of 248 for the preliminaries. Damage by Cloud Burst. Breaking over Grand Rapids with a tremendous crash of thunder, early Saturday night, the worst cloudburst the city has seen In 20 years wrought havoc with basements and street pavements. Three inches of water fell inside of an hour, breaking all local records for June, precipitation. Sewers backed up all over the city and overflowed the streets, the water rising as high as three and four feet In some of the lower districts of the west side. In some places passage was possible only by boat. Street cars were stalled, basements in all parts of the city flooded with two and three feet of water and much damage to property was done. A number of washouts have been reported on the steam roads leading to that city. A house was struck by lightning and a 6-foot hole torn in the building and a l"-year-old girl rendered unconscious by the lightning bolt. A Great Shake. Because ho came in contact with a fcirc carrying about 450 volts of electricity, Irf-n Haley, of Flint, will have some dentlRt work done. Three gold fillings which were in his teeth dropped out when he received the "Jolt." Besides this, Haley complaint* of severe pains in his stomach and a bad burn across the nock, but physicians say there will be no serious effects from the experience. The body ot Harold Laxey, the 10- year-okl boy who was drowned in Thread creek, near Flint, Saturday night, was recovered Sunday morning.

Word has reached Berrien Springs of the marriage, in Covington, Ky., of Mrs. Phoebe GilHs, and Arthur J. Murphy, an armless and legless actor, whose home is in Portland, Ore. The affair was an elopement, it is'said, the parents of Murphy, who lost his limbs in a western blizzard, objecting to the match. When his horse ran away and crashed through the gates at the Spring street crossing of the railroad in Hillsdale, Charles Warren was thrown in front of a switch engine.

Harry O'Hare, a local character, was arrested in Flint three weeks ago for drunkenness, -and received permission to hunt up bondsmen. He was not seen again till he walked into the jail and announced that his search for financial assistance had taken him to Corunna. There he Becured another load and was sentenced to 20 days, returning to Flint as soon as released.

While standing on the river bank watching the drowning struggles of his son, Ray, Paul Randall, an oldtime printer, suffered an attack of heart-failure. The accident occurred near the Bailey Springs rifle range where milirafmCn were holding a rifle -contest, and Private Barnes and Lieut. Lyman, the latter a doctor, saved the boy by pulling him into a rowboat which they had secured and gone to the rescue. Lyman had his hands full for a few minutes in reviving the two patients, who were a short time later declared out of danger. W L CRIME THI h n m M « OF M«»- QfLtfRT WftOOiLL TO SCCURI MONgY. A NIGHT OF WILD ORGIES The Case Has Many Remarkable and Mysterious Features and Some •hocking Details. Following the news of the murder of Slsie Slgel, by tha Chinaman Leon Ling in his room in New York, with he ghastly details, comes that of Mrs. Gilbert Wood ill in the Broad Creek bungalow, near Easton, M<L, of Robert B. Eastman, a fugitive broker. There la a mystery about the life ol the woman whose husband is ill in Los Angelea. She had told friends that she was born in Minneapolis about 20 rears ago. Her mother, who -aalled herself Mrs. Amw, died when she was about S yaars of age, leaving her in utter ignorance of her parentage or forbears. Mrs. Charles H. Thompson, of Mc- Daniel, Md.. then took her and brought her up, telling her that she (Mrs. Thompson) was her mother's intimate friend, but never disclosing to her the name of her father. When she was about 12 years of age they went to Washington, where they lived for some time in the house of Lyman J. Gage, who took a great interest in her. When she was^ibout 15 he sent her, with Mrs. Thompson, to Paris, where she studied ^ t f s l c , Mr. Gage paying all expenses. $ * ?. . On her return from Paris she went to Boston to complete her rtudiee.and while in Boston aho was married i o a Mr. Caswell, who was an osteopath. Wheft she was about 17 she came to Baltimore to continue her studies at the Peabody conservatory, leaving her husband. She was known here as Miss Edith Thompson, concealing her marriage from all but a few intimate friends. In a very short time there* after she entered suit against Dt.< Caswell for a divorce. She left Baltimore on Easter a year ago, being engaged- at the time to Harry Adams, of Mount Vernon, N. Y, After a brief stay in New York she went to California, where in less than 30 days after her divorce from' Dr. Oaewelt, she married Gilbert Woodill, of Los Angeles. It has also been rumored that in her early youth Charles Thompson, the eon of her fostermother and father,, being a rejected suitor, committed suicide on her account. During her residence fn Baltimore' Mr. Gago sent her checks continually/ some of them amounting to $1,500, and When she was married to Mr. Woodill, he gave her $5,000. At the timVtfc b r e a t h : ; Ifr^tlM&WWr w\w building her a house in LoavAngelee, with the understanding that.he was tor come to live with her and her husband. All of these facts, it is asserted; were stated by Mrs. Woodill to friends in Baltimore prior to her death. There was a wild orgie at Eastman's bungalow, participated In by men and gay women, a debauch 1n which drunk' enness was a prominent features fol-t lowed by the murder of Mrs. Woodill undoubtedly by Eastman, who had induced, her to join the party, his purpose being robbery. That be was guilty his suicide just as he was to be taken into custody plainly indicates. It is practically an established fact that "Lame Bob" Eastman murdered the protege of Lyman J. Gage, Edith May Thompson Woodill, with, his own hands, robbing the dead WcV man of a large-amount of money and jewelry and planned cunningly • to throw the crime on New.York frtenda who knew him in his prosperous days and visited him Saturday a week ago. Eastman's intricate scheme to involve others- and save his own neck If possible Is being exposed hour by hour. There was a gay party at Eastman's bungalow, on the shore of Broad creek, where he hid tor five months from the New York police, but every scrap of information that the police of three statea can gather points to the fact that Eastman was alone with young Mrs. Woodill when she came to her death. The very cunning the crooked broker used to cover the girl's death Is being analyzed bit by bjt, every lie, trick and stratagem Indicating that Eastman alone was guilty. Murderer's History. Robert E. Eastman, known as 'Lame Bob," failed In the brokerage business in New York last year, was arrested twice in Chicago last August for grand larceny, and since that time has been a fugitive from justice. "Wall street never witnessed a more complete ruin than I," Eastman Is quoted as saying In New York. Vinnie Bradcombe, the woman to whom Eastman wrote his version of the tragedy at St. Michaels, admits that she was Eastman's wife. The young woman lives with Tier mother and sister. She is an actress, but has not played since eight months ago. Their marriage, she said, tnok place January 26, 1908, about two yrars after she first met Eastman. "I lived with him just five days," she said. "He treated m» kindly, but he seemed to be laboring under o great strain that preyed on his mind so much that 1 became frightened. 3 The Orusaomo Qww»eoa Case. , Aft** A 1*1^ -oMfrhi g ^ m 4 4 ^ giflg we* reaawd litwd>y «a t*# Gunnee* (arm in <>^* *%&***& ffklch 10>ad *Jrta4» been No rtoeW e * t £ K d t** • # £ • of Asia *t HeigeUm, of AhardsdW^flLff, Mr*.

Those Honest Jape. Japan is now in tbe throe* of oner of the most sensational scandal*) in the history of the inspire. In connection with It more than a dozen members of the imperial diet, includior representatives from all political parties, have been placed under arrest on the charge of receiving bribes. It appears 'hat these men accepted enormous sums of money from the directors of the Dai Nippon Sugar'company on condition that they, as members of the imperial diet, would undertake to Induce the government to grant rebates and monopolies to the sugar company. Money belonging to the shareholders to the extent of hundreds of thousands were paid in bribes to the politicians; but the government finally rejected the scheme, and only when it fell through and the Dal Nip^ pon Sugar company was lejft practically bankrupt, did the unpleasant revelations come to light WIRfcLETS.

CHAPTER VI—Continued. Along the south side of the cliff the sea extended in twice aa far aa on the north. From the end of the talus the coast trended off four or five miles to the Bouth-southweet In a shallow bight, whose southern extremity was hounded by a second limestone headland. This ridge ran Inland parallel to the first, and from a point some little distance back from, the shore was covered with a growth of leafless trees. Between the two ridges lay a plain, open along the shore, but a short distance inland covered with a jungle of tall yellow grass, above which, here and there, rose the tops of scrubby, leafless treeB and the graceful crests of slender-shafted palms. Blake's attention was drawn to the latter by that feeling of artificiality which their exotic appearance so often wakens in the mind or the northernbred man even after long residence in the tropics. But in a moment he tamed away with a growl. "More of thoBe darned feather-dusters!" He was* not looking for palms. The last ragged bit of cloud, with Its showery accompaniment, drifted past before the breeze which followed the squall, and the end of the storm was proclaimed by a deafening chorus of squawks and screams along the hfg&er ledges of the cliff. Staring upward, Blake for the first time observed that the face of the cliff swarmed with aeafowl. "That's luck!" he muttered. "Guess I haven't forgot how to rob nests. Bet our fine lady'll shy at sucking them raw,! All the same, she'll have to if I don't run across other rock than this, poor girl!" He advanced again along the talus, and did not stop until he reached the sand beach. There he halted to make a careful examination, not only of the loose debris, but of the solid rock above. Finding no sign of flint or quartz, he growled out a curse and backed off along the beach to get a view of the cliff top. From a point a little beyond him, outward to the extremity of the headland, he could see that the upper ledges and the crest of the cliff, as well, were fairly crowded with seafowl and their nests. His smile of satisfaction broadened when he glanced inland and saw, less than half a mile distant, a wooded cleft which apparently ran up to the summit of the1 ridge. From a point near the top a gigantic Baobab tree towered up against the skyline like a BTobdlngnagian cabbage. "Say, we may hav« a run money, after all," be murmur** "Shade, and no end of grub, and, by the green of those trees, a spring-— limestone water at that Next thing, III find a flint!" He slapped his leg, and both sou *d and feeling reminded htm that his clothes were drenched. "Guess we'll wait about that flint." he sard, and be made for a clump of thorn scrub a little way inland. Aa the tall grass did not grow here within a mile of the shore, there was nothing to obstruct him. The creeping r. I ants which during the rainy season Blake walked around the clump to the shadJgit-alde, and begjua ta> stsif. In quiek sacce*fio» one g*rm*Ot after another was flung across a branch where th«-eun would strike i t Last of alt, th* shoes were emptied of rainwater and setaout to dry. Wltfcoot « pause, he Chen gave himself a quick, light rub-down, Just sufficient to invigorate the SHA without starting the perspiration. Physically the man was magnificent. His muscles were wiry and compact, rather tbau bulky, and aa be moved, they played beneath his white skin with the smoothness and ease of a tiger's. After the rub-down he squatted on his heels and spent some time trying to bend his palm-leaf hat back mtp shape. When he had placed this also out In the sun he found himself beginning to yawn. The dry, jnltry air had made him droway. A touch with his bare toot -showed him that the sand beneath the' thorn bush had already absorbed the rain and offered a dry surfaces He glanced around, drew his club nearer and stretched himself out for a nap. CHAPTER Vill. The Club Age. T was past two o'clock when •the sun, striking in where Blake lay outstretched, began *•> scorch one of his lege. He stirred uneasily, and sat upright. Like a sailor, he was wide awake the moment he opened his eyes. He stood up and peered around through the half leafless branches. Dyer the water thousands of gulls and terns, booblee and cormorants were skimming and diving, while above them a number of graceful frigate birds—those swart, scarlet-throated pirates of the air—-hung poised, ready to swoop down and rob the weaker birds of" their fish. All about the headland and the surrounding water was life in1 fullest action. Even from., where he stood Blake could hear the harsh c|amor, of the aeafowl. In marked contrast to this scene the plain waa apparently lifelessf When Blake -rose, a small brown lizard darted away across the sand. Other- "You Beastly Cad!" wise there was neither sight nor sound of a living creature. Blake pondered this as he gathered his clothes into the shade and began to dress. "Looks like the siesta. is the allround style in this God-forsaken hole," he grumbled. "Haven't seen so much as a rabbit, nor even one land bird. May be a drought—no; must be the dry season— Whee, these things are hot! I'm thirsty as a shark. Now, where's that softy and her ladyship? 'Fraid she's in for a tough time!" He drew Oft his shoes with a jerk, growled at their stiffness, and, club in band, stepped clear of the brush to look for his companions. The first glance along the foot of the cliff showed him Wlnthrope lying under the shade of the overhanging ledges, a few yards beyond the sand beach. Of Mlas Leslie there was no sign. Half alarmed by thia, Blake started for the beach with his swinging stride. Winfor oorfthrope was awake, and on Blake's ap- •>oach, sat up to greet him. ••Wello!" he called. "Where have ran been all this time?" * "'Sleep. Where's Miss Leslie?" "She's around tue point,1* Blake grinned mockingly. "Indeed! ll'tt. I fawncy she won't be for long." He would have passed on, but Wintrope stepped before him. "Don't go out there, Blake," he protested. UI—ah—think It would be better if I went." "Why?" demanded Blake. Wlnthrope hesitated; but an impatient movement by Blake forced an answer: "Well, yos> remember, this marniag; ieWog n t to* dry our clothe*" T e a ; 1 remember/'-said Blake, "8o yon want to aarye aa lady's valetr Wmthrapeys plnmp face tamed a sfeklytyellows ••»'*> **>u. .<,.-..-. «»1—ah~vaJet?-*What do you mean, air? I protest—1 do not understand you!" he stammered. But i s the midst, catching eight of Blaks's bewildered stare, be suddenly flushed crimson, and buret oat in uareatrelned anger: "You—you bounder—you beaatly cad! Any mail with an ounce of decency—" Blake uttered a Jeering laugh— "Wow! Hark, how the British lion r<r-ro-ar» when, hia. tail's twisted!" "Ton beaatly cad!" repeated the Englishman, now purple with rage, Blake-* unpleasant pleasantry gave place to a scowl. HJs iaw tbjrust out like a bulldog's, and he bent towards Wiathrope with a menacing look. For a moment the Englishman faced him, sustained by his anger. But there waa a steely light in Blake's eyes that he could not withstand. Winthrope'a defiant stare wavered and fell. « e shrank baek, the color fast ebbing from his cheeks. "Ugh!" growled Blake. "Guess yon won't blat any more about cads! You damned hypocrite! Maybe I'm not on to how you've been hanging around Mlas Leslie Just because she's an heiress. Anything is fair enough for you swells. But let a fellow so much as open his mouth about your exalted set, and it's perfectly dreadful, you know!" He paused for a reply ^ Winthrope only drew back a atep farther and eyed him with a furtive, sidelong glance. ThiB brought Blake back to his mocking jeer. "Youll learn, Pat, me b'y. There's lota of thlngsll show up different to you before we get through this picnic. For one thing, I'm boss here—president, congress and supreme court. Understand?" <cBy what right, may I ask?w marmured Wlnthrope. "Right!** 'answered Slake." "That hasn't anything to do with the question— it's might. Back In civilized parts your little crowd has the drop on my big crowd and runs things to suit themselves. But here we're sOrt of reverted to primitive society. This happens to be the Cinb Age and I'm the Man with the Big Stick. See?" "I myself sympathise with the lower classes, Mr. Blake. Above all, I think it barbarous the way they punish one who is forced by circumstances to appropriate part of the ill-gotten gains of tbe rich upstarts. But do you believe, Mr. Blake, that brute strength—**• "You bet! Now shut up. Where're the cocoanuts?" Wlnthrope picked up two nuts and handed them over. "There were only five," he explained. "All right. I'm no captain of industry." "Ah, true; you said we had reverted to barbarism," rejoined Wlnthrope, venturing an attempt at sarcasm. "Lucky for yon!" retorted Blake. "But where's Miss Leslie aft this time? Her clothes must have dried hours ago." "They did. We had luncheon together just this side of the point." "Oh, you did! Then why shouldn't I go for her?" "I—I—there waa a shaded pool around the point, and she thought a dip in the salt water would refresh her. She went not more than half au hour ago." "So that's it. Well, while I eat you go and call her—and say, you keep this side the point. I'm looking out for Miss Leslie now." Wlnthrope hurried away, clenching his fists and almost weeping with impotent rage. Truly, matters were now very different from what they had been aboard ship. Fortunately he had not gone a dozen steps before Miss Leslie appeared around the corner of the cliff. He' was scrambling along over the loose stones of the slope without the slightest consideration for his ankle. The girl, more thoughtful, waved to him to wait for her where he was. As she approached, Blake's frown gave place to a look that made his face positively pleasant. He had already drained the cocoanuts; now he proceeded to smash the shells into small bits, that he might eat the meat, and at the same time keep his gaze on the girl. The cliff foot being well shaded by the towering wall of rock, she had taken off his coat and was carrying it on her arm; so that there was nothing to mar the effect of her dainty openwork waist, with its elbow sleeves and graceful collar and the filmy veil of lace over the shoulders and bosom. Her skirt had been washed clean by the rain, and she had managed to stretch it into shape before drying. Refreshed by a nap In the forenoon and by her salt-water dip, she showed more vivacity than at any time that Wlnthrope could remember during their acquaintance.

We'll be in the sun for half a mile or so. Better get on the coat, Mlas Leslie. It's hotter than yesterday." 1 "Permit me." said Wlnthrope. Blake watched while the English, man held the coat for the girl and rather fussily raised the collar about her neck and turned back the sleeves, which extended beyonu the tips of her fingers. The American's face was stolid; but his glance took in every little look and act of his companions. He was not altogether unversed in the ways of good society, and it seemed to him that the Englishman was somewhat overassiduous in his attentions. "All ready, Blake," remarked Wlnthrope, finally, with a last lingering touch. "'Bout time!" grunted Blake. "You're fussy as a tailor. Got the flask and cigarette case and the knife?" "All safe, sir—er—all safe, Blake." "Then you two follow me slow enough not to worry that ankle. I don't want any more of the pack-mule in mine." "Where are we going, Mr. Blake?** exclaimed Miss Leslie. "You will not leave us again!" "It's only a half-mile, Miss Jenny. There's a break in the ridge. I'm going on ahead to find if it's hard to climb." "But why should be, climb?" "Food, for one thing. You see, this end of the cliff is covered with seabirds. Another thing, I expect to strike a spring." "Oh, I hope you do! The water in the rain pools is already warm." (TO BE CONTINUED.) ACCORDING TO ALL PRECEDENT. STILL LOOKIriS POR LrGHT.

"Then," said the teller of the thrilling war story, "the intrepid general swung himself on his trusty steed." The listeners leaned forward. "And plunged through fire and smoke onward where duty called him." The suspense began to grow breathless. "About him scores of men dropped dead or wounded." The suspense finished growing breathless. "But still he galloped onward, erect and fearless. At last he reached the front ranks. He waved his sword. With a wild cheer the shattered ranks closed up. Led by that intrepid man, they advanced.

And the stickler for correctness in metaphor leaned back in his chair, well satisfied with himself. ACT AS SPUR TO MAN'S PRIDE. Love and Belief Are Powerful Agents for Reformation. Love and belief in a man can never hurt him. It will always act as a spur to his pride, which is invariably close to a man's love, whilst it has little or nothing to do with a woman's. Even when the schoolboy falls in love with the little girl in pinafores, his first instinct is to acquit himself in her eyes in some magnificent way —to knock out some other boy, or Intimidate a foe. This instinct remains with men until they die, just as girls from the cradle or inspired by love seek beauty to appear lovely in the eyes of their adorers. And the masculine pride and prowess and strength are what the wise girl will use in her desire to reform some man who is merely weak. Nagging drives such men into the depths. Every look of derision, snub, insult sinks the iron deeper into their souls.—Exchange. Now H e Could Die Satisfied. The dying Englishman laughed, faintly and reservedly, as became his race. "What ails the man?" asked the vicar, the heir, the younger son in the army, the younger son in the church, the keeper of the lodge and the stolid barrister.

"I don't want to be dressed up/' Mary wae beginning ln a still greater outburst .of revolt, when she was interrupted by a new arrival-—a thin girl with bright blue eyes audi bright red hair, who dashed around tba corner of the verandahs*, if it weren't a very hot third of July indeed, and die hottest part ofJ the afternoon. •**'"'" "Oh, Mary!" cried the red-haired tfrL ? \ .'•'• '- ;"*•> * "Oh; Bunny!" cried Maryy "have fou heard about It? These hateful boys aren't going to let us be In the races. They say they, don't want girls on the program, at all, And with our records, too!'' "Who told youf demanded Bunny. "Tom," said Mary. That settled it. The news was evidently authentic, for Tom was Mary's brother, and both girls knew his word was not to be doubted. Besides, he was chairman of the committee on Fourth of July sports, which the boys of Douglaston were going to held at the village school grounds. An admission, of 26 asnta for grown-ups and ten cents for* Children was to be charged, and with the proceeds new suits were to be bought for the junior ball team. Of course, in some places the girls wouldn't have thought of having a, part in so Important an event, but the girls of Douglaston and their summer Visitors were very fond of all sorts of sports, and Bunny and Mary were members, of a small group of girls who had com.eJftom big schools where athletics and.gymnastic work were a most Important part of the course. Consequently> they felt deeply aggrieved at being debarred from participating in £ne iourth sports. "And it would be much more interesting if they had aV least one girls' race," wailed Mary, bursting forth again with ' her complaint. "Everybody Is always more interested in girls' events than in boys. I'm sure more people would go." Bunny suddenly sprang into the air and began) clapping her hands in the Wildest fashion. "Mary, you're a dear, tf dear^'she cried. "I've thought of something and we'll do it, too. Bring your gym bloomers and come over to my house right after tea and tell Susie and Evelyn. I'll tell the rest of the girls." > "There, now,* said Aunt Mary, "what ia that child going to do?" "I do&'t know, but Bunny does. Bunny's found a way," carolled Mary Joyously-, and she.ran gayly off to look up her .gymnasium suit On Fourth of July morning the boyB of Douglaston had a surprise. Tom Mason, Mary's brother, saw it first It was a banner—a large white banner, which was swung across the main.street from the post office to the principal grocer's opposite. Tom approached it curiously. On it he read this Wend: I'M • • ' • GIRLS' FOURTH OF JULY SPORTS.

Admission 2S cent* for adults, 10 cents for children. tt( LEMONADE FREE. own sister waa twining a hurdle with red, white and blue garlands.' "And they're going to do it up fancy like girls do," groaned Tom to Johnny a few momenta later, in reference to the paper garlands. "They'll get all the crowd," said Johnny dolefully. "Sure-, thing," acquiesced Tom. "Judge Evans' man had a dosen banners to put up, and everybody'll see them." "There's only one thing in our favor," he declared, "and that is the openness of the meadow. Anybody can see the races there without paying admission, and, of course, some people will be mean enough to do it So.if they want to make money they'll have a hard time, while, of course, there's a fence around our place. Not that that wiH do ua any good if the folka can And something else to see that's just as lively and that they don't have to pay for if they don't want to." "The only thing for us to do," said Johnny, firmly, "is to get all the fellows together." It waa rather a Bheepish lot of boys who later marched two by two up to the Evans place. The Evans meadow was by this time assuming a decidedly gala appearance, with ita abundance of flags and garlands flying from fence posts and,trees. Tom as leader of the opposition called a parley. His overtures were reaponded to with suitable reluctance by Bonny aa queen of the Am axons. "You know," said Tom, "you only asked for one obstacle race, and we're willing to let you girle have half the events if you'll only combine with us. You can't make much money here, anyway. You can only keep us from making any at all, and we'll give you half the proceeds." Now there was one very good thing about Bunny, which waa that she knew when to make concessions. So she hesitated only long enough to tell the other girls that they ought really to forgive the boys, and then she straightway sent the judge's man to tack the following addendum to the white bannera: "The girls' sports will be held in combination with the boys' at jthe school field." And the girls didn't take advantage of Tom's offer, either, for they didn't really want half the events. All that they wanted was a fair representation on the straightaway races and an opportunity of enjoying that fascinating sport, the obstacle race. They didn't make quite as good time as the boys, for, after all, boys are pretty good at some things, but when Grandniece Mary came in in the lead of all the girls after having undergone the perilous adventures of the high fence, the fence to be crawled under, the low fence, the hurdle and the barrel with both ends out, even Grandaunt Mary dropped her knitting bag in her excitement and Bald she wished they had done such things when she was a girl.

NDEPENDENCE d a y, 1909». sees blood-stained, historic Valley Forge f; restored* and not only restored, but greatly beautified, improved, and turned into a public park for the enjoyment of the people. It Is a fortunate thing t h a t the time has passed when the pilgrim to Valley Forge ln search of Bight* and relics of the historic camp* perhaps the most hallowed of our revolutionary reminders, waa obliged to tramp over fields of none too friendly farmers and be constantly an? noyed by signs warning off trespassera. Apart from which, the fatigue of such a trip waa great, aa there were no roads leading over the camp ground and no signs marking the way to the historic spots, only fields of waving grain or woodlands over* grown with underbrush.. Consequent* ly the hardest kind of walking over the steep hills waa required to view but a few of the sights. Through the untiring efforts of a number of patriotic men, all this has been changed and the state of Pennsylvania has been induced to assume and complete a task which waa first offered and refused by the federal government, although the undertaking was clearly within its province, as the camp ground of Valley Forge is a relic which should belong not only to Pennsylvania, but to the entire nation, aa every patriotic American must wish for ita preservation and would feel proud in being part owner. But whether by Pennsylvania or the national government, It must be at least gratifying to the nation to learn that the neglect of a century has been atoned for, and under the able and enthusiastic direction of the Valley Forge Park commission, a work of almost incalculable historical value has been done on the bleak heights above the Schuylkill, to which Washington's barefoot army crawled when the defeat of Germantown left them no other refuge. Fort Washington and Fort Huntington have been restored. An iron tower 105 feet in height for observation purposes is being finished on Mount Joy, and from this tower not only a birdseye view of the entire camp ground and beautiful surrounding country can be had, but also Philadelphia, 20 miles distant, can be made out. A beautiful commemorative chapel of the Episcopal churoh has been built on the spot where Washington, in his direst hour of distress, knelt ln prayer. The headquarters of •the commander ln the Isaac- Potts house have been purchased, completely restored and turned into a revolutionary museum. Roads have been built which make possible quick communication between all points of the park, besides which, lawns and flower beds have been laid out and planted and even a guard house haa been bnilt to further heighten the park effect.

Mr. Boeder flushed modestly and thrust his hands deep Into his pockets. "If only you could tell me," he said, feelingly, "If you'd; like a large one or a small One or a mejum-sised one or—" Mrs. Blander fixed him with an outraged eye. "Slae?" she Inquired. "You ask me what site? That, sir, Is a minor issue. It may be as large as a bed of the Nepoleonic era, and, so its lines bespeak art, I will receive It allowing its unfilled Interior to testify to my spiritual consistency. Or, if you show me nothing that will satisfy the demands of beauty save small ones, 1 will purchase several, placing them here and there, like Grecian urns. And If, perchance, you have one of precisely the proper circumference and height;* with Beauty shaping its outlines, then would I say it w is Art's reward for a disciple's adherence to Its laws." Mrs. Blander was lost in thought. Mr. Booder seemed to he experiencing vertigo. Then he pulled himself together. ~ "Now, that's not a bad idea, ma'am, about having* several of 'cm.

"Furthermore," continued Mrs. Blander, "according to higher interpretation, you misuse the word Idea.' But, to, revert to my proposed purchase, a have resolved* t o eliminate from the transaction all the sordid, as anything for use in tte home, that shrine of the heart, must have a spiritual meaning." Mrs. Blander glanced triumphantly from Clarissa (pv Mr. Booder, and though she rightly read the face of one to- mean awe, she mistook the struggle, of the other to indicate an awakening s o u l With a thrill of joy she seated herself and, cordially motlonjd to her auditors 16 do the same, of course, obeyed, but Mr. dug his heels irmly In the faced her standing, ter was inclined to sulk, being strong upon him. marshalled one symbol after anothey before his soulful customer, who rejected them solemnly, almost sorrowfully, as though mourning, the existence os so much of the unbeautiful. Finally he rolled Into place a hamper so huge that it looked capable of accommodating the horse of Troy. The instant Mrs;, Blander saw it she exclaimed, gracefully: "That Is an exponeat of a most charming type! Pray rest from your labors, while I meditata upon i t Bee, Clarissa, how noble are its proportions, how chaste its design, novf Dorfc its atmosphere!

"Of course, dear," modestly responded Clarissa, "I'm not clever like you, and never have occult intimations, so, to tell the truth, it merely seems to me the biggest and baldest hamper I ever saw.

"Not eftar It bat been deseoratsd hjr rtdicu| a SAsT^mhoeasad by iguoraace." Mr. Booder quailed kofora har eye and enbfjTassedly trundled away the classic ptie. It .was not until ail of the stock had been paraded before her that' Mrs. Blander decided upon a medium-sisad hamper that bulged la the middle, had outspreading handles and a magenta band near the top. "The magenta border is a blow to me," she explained to Mr. Booder, "as the room In which it Is to be placed is In ethereal blue, and I fear a subtle antagonism between the two." "The. price of this—" began Mr. Booder, pencil in hand, glad to be on the ground he comprehended. But not so. Mrs. Blander raised s supplicating hand as she said: "Do not name the price, I beg of you. 1 make it a point never to sully an object at the time of purchase by Identifying it with the c o s t If, when it IS delivered, I find it beyond what 1 can afford, I simply return i t In this way I contribute my mite toward spiritualizing trade. Now let us go, Clarissa, and as we go let us cast frequent glances at the new symbol, foi I wish to carry away a distinct pic ture, unconfused with environing objects." So Mrs. Blander glided from the room, part of the time backward, loolung o'ut"of half-cTo«ed lids at the receding lines of the hamper and its mageat*£ border. ^ "She forgot to give me ber ad' dress," malignly chuskled Mx. Booder, beginning (b recover his spirits. "tfttult, Sir, Intuit.** ing but a hamper. I hope you"—turning to Mr. Booder—"can see in it somethingjoagond.. tha materia)." Mr. Booder advanced to the side of the wicker elephant and • peered within. "I can't, ma'am," he, confessed, shamefacedly; "there ain't anything In it I can see, not even materials." He continued gazing dejectedly into the bowels of the hamper. If estheticlsm can snort, that low word would best describe the sound of disgust with which Mrs. Blander faxored Mr. Booder. "Are men but clods?" she cried. "Does intuition play no part with you? IntuH, sir, intuit!" , v. Such was the commanding presence of strong-minded Mrs. Blander and the obedient servility of weak-minded My. Booder, that in the twinkling of an eye,, and before Mr. Booder himself knew what he was doing; he had leaped over the side of* the hamper and was meekly gazing out at his ressolute customer. • Clarissa showed herself not altogether devoid of humor and sniggered painfully; but Mrs. Blander was sensitive and silenced her by a glance. "What do you mean," she inquired, "behaving in this fashion? Come out at once and explain your conduct." Mr. Booder clambered out of the Parthenon and answered, defiantly: "You told me to do it." "I did nothing of the kind" contradieted Mrs. Blander in her most-positive manner. "I'll leave It to the young lady if W h a t Not to Read.'

[Copyright, 1908, by American Pr«u AMOciation. J Several brides were telling each othoi where and how they first met their husbands. Finally one told her expert ence in a story as follows: "Last summer," she said, "we spent as usual at our place, Ferncliff, in the mountains. We had a house full of gueBts, as usual, and one of the men- I consider it a breach of confidence for any plrl to revojil the name of a suitor, so I will call him Mr. Beach was devoted to me." "I see." remarked the other, "yon wish to conceal the denouement. To call your lover by his real name would spoil your story. Go on." "I liked Mr. Bench very much, but he seemed rather prosaic. I wished for something more showy. Mothpr said that a practical man would wear better than a showy one, and I have found since my marriage th«t she was right." "Oh, dear, why dirtn't you make it more of a mystery?" "One day n circus came to town We young people agreed that wc Would attend a performance, and all went to the tent in a body. W» climbed the board seats to a convenient height, sitting In a bunch, Mr. Beach being beside me. We wer* much too early for the show, but en joyed ourselves watching the country people come in. Near us a young fei low was arranging his wares, consisting of popcorn cakes As soon as hp had them laid out on his table, or. rather, board, he took up some packages and, holding up one, passed around the ring, dragging one leg after the other, the way circus peoplo do, drawling: '"These celebrated popcorn cake* are made of popcorn grown in the vale of Cashmere under the glow of the radiant facet of the most beautiful women of the world. Only 5 cents J» package. Warranted fresh and lus clous to the taste.' " 'What do you know about the vale of Cashmere?' called Mr. Beach, buy. ing a package of the popcorn. •" 'Mother's got n hook of poems by a Mickey called Tom Moore.' said thifellow, handing up the change. And he strutted on with, 'Here's your celebrated popcorn cakes grown on the fertile plains of Palestine,' etc. "The audience began to guy him good naturediy, but he smiled at any one doing so with a bewitching smile. Indeed, every one was watching him and wondering where next bis celebrated popcorn would come from. Be continued his rounds till there was n flourish of haU u dozen dingy brass instruments, and the performance commenced. cousin, Adele Perkins. But before asking to be treated as a guest I will explain that tbe company of performers you saw today are all fellow students of mine at college. They need what they make In this manner to enable them to pursue their studies. I. on the contrary, have been born with a silver spoon in my mouth. .But 1 am a practical chap, and my father, being of the same mind as myself, pre: fers that I shall work my Way through college as a preparation for tbie duties that are expected to fall to me when I have finished my education* I bave therefore joined my chums as - popcorn seller and make bold to say that I keep Hp my end of the profits.'

Following a. proce*? of gradual undressing, he left his furs In the ball, his overcoat in the next room, his gaInches in the third and, continuing, arrived at the bedside iu ordinary indoor <ostume.

In obtaining a legal determination of the value of a scream, Miss Grace Keals of Chicago has performed a distinguished service for her sex. Miss Keals, who is an actress, sued a druggist for injury to her vocal chords, alleged to have been caused through a mistake in filling a prescription, and has been awarded 15,000, says the Pittsburg Gazette-Times. The jury was told that in emotional roleB, when the villain became perniciously active. Miss Reals had to engage another woman to do the screaming for her. The jury agreed that a screamless actress is sadly handicapped in her art, but its verdict should afford protection to women other than those who follow the profession of the stage. No woman can go safely and happily through life without a scream. From mice to burglars, there is a broad variety of emergencies, each requiring its owns scream of peculiar intensity. There are married men of long experience who claim to be able to tell from the tone of a scream whether there is a mouse in the refrigerator or little Johnny has tumbled into the well. The occupants of a Kansas City flat building were saved from a horrible death by the scream of a woman, which summoned the fire department. Therefore, an impairment of her vocal chords which interferes with her natural screaming powers is easily worth ¢5,000. In fact, the Chicago druggist who is to pay that sum to Miss Reals may congratulate himself on getting off so lightly. The speed test of the new scoutcruisers Chester, Salem and Birmingham resulted in conspicuous victory for the first-named, which in a 24-hour trip made an average of 25.50 knots per hour, her competitor, the Salem, reporting an average of 24.54. The officers of the Chester assert she could have done still better but for a slight fault in one of her turbines, which can be readily remedied, says the Troy Times. The Birmingham dropped out when the contest was half over, some impairment to the machinery rendering this necessary. But with thorough "tuning up" there seems to be no doubt that the three vessels will be valuable additions to ships of their class, the function of which will be to Hcour the sea and do It with alacrity. The letting of the contract for constructing the railroad to run from Arica, Chile, to La Paz, Bolivia, is another striking indication of the progress made in uniting the three Americas. The new line, to coat |15,000,- 000, will cross the Andes mountains at a height of 12,000 feet above the level of the sea and is to be part of the longitudinal system which is to traverse practically the entire length of Chile, 3,000 miles or more. Ana it will be an important link in that enormously greater system which in time will make it possible to travel by rail from the United States to the extreme of South America. The late Hinton Rowan Helper should have taken heart of grace, seeing how rapidly his idea was materializing. The American army mule is a valuable and useful beast, as has often been demonstrated, and he is holding his own, with no kick coming. The government stands by him. Orders have just been issued that army officers going to and from San Francisco and the military reservation near that city must ride in conveyances drawn by army mules and not automobiles. The office^ formed the automobile habit at the time of the earthquake and as & matter of emergency and necessity. But the government regards the good old reliable mule as quite adequate to ordinary conditions, and so the animal comes back to his former dignity. Residents of New York city are asking why, in the face of the casualty records of last year, and the growing movement for a safe and sane Fourth of July, the flre commissioner of that city has issued fifteen hundred permits for the sale of fireworks. This is ii consistency worthy of note; although even in cases where cities have rigid ordinances against the use of fireworks within their limits, dealers may be permitted to sell fireworks to outsiders who are not wise enough to heed the lessons of experience. The way to prevent, the abuse of the privileges is to limit the permit in thasa instances to wholesaling. TWO MISSING I K LOCATED A MJtftING BRIDEGROOM WAS FOUND IN CANTON, OHIO. WAS IN DAZED CONDITION Disappeared tha Night Bafoftt Hit Wedding Wag to Occur—Dr. Da- Nike is in the Weat. Arthur Hewea, aged 20, who disappeared with his wedding ring on the night he was to have married a pupil in his school in Pittsford, Mich., on Thursday walked into the mayor's office at Canton, 0., and, appearing much dazed, asked: "Who am I and where am I, anyway?" He was unable to give the slightest account of himself, but the police identified hlra by a crumpled card in his pocket which bore his name and address. Hewea was to have been married to Miss Barbara Heanions, a Pittsford girl. On receipt of the news Hillsdale relatives at once started to bring the young man back. Although the young man declined to give his name, it 1B believed from the general description and the circumstances, that Hewea was in Adrian the day following his disappearance. The young man in question Informed the police at Adrian that he had been robbed of $G5 in one of the Adrian hotels that morning, but the police thought that he was either telling a fake story, or had mislaid his money, and so did not give him much encouragement. Ho later boarded an interurban car for Toledo. He told the Adrian officers that he was a school teacher at Pittsford. Dr. DeNike Heard From. Attorney John Q. Ross, of Muskegon, on Thursday received a letter from Br, A. James DeNike, the missing Whitehall physician. The postmark on the envelope was badly blurred and it is impossible to discover whence the letter came, except that, from tho general trend of the communication, indications point to the doctor's having written from some western town. In his letter Dr. DeNike says the reports as to hie debts and attentiveness to other women than his wife are false, but he refuses to give the reason for his abrupt departure. Mrs. Glazier Won. Mrs. F. P. Glazier, in the suit for $30,850 recently brought against her by the Stockbridge bank of Stockbridgc\ won through a verdict of no cause for action, directed bv Judge Wicst, at Mason. In 1901 Gilbert H. Gay and F. P. Glazier, who were partners in the Stockbridge bank, took $27,600 worth of United States government bonds which they placed in the safety deposit vaults in Detroit, with the understanding that they were not to be removed until both of them consented. At that time Mr. Glazier gave his promissory note payable to the Stockbridge bank for $27,600. On December 1, 1907, when, from the common report, Mr. Gay thought that Mr. Glazier's financial condition was unsettled, he sent for him and asked for the bonds, and received the reply that Mr. Glazier had used them. Mrs. Glazier offered to give her personal note. Mr. Gay traded Mr. Glazier's note for Mrs. Glazier's for the amount of the indebtedness, which now amounts to $30,850. The bank brought suit to recover the amount of the note. The defense was that a married woman shall not be liable for debt. A Father'* Grief. After having a premonition that some harm might come to the boy, but allowing the little fellow's pleadings to overcome his better judgment, Henry Chuest^in, a well-to-do farmer, let his son Willie, aged 3, sit with him while he drove a heavy load to Mflan. When about half way to his destination, the elder Chuestein was horrified, when the wheels struck a deep rut in the road, to see the child bounced from his seat into the roadway. Chucstein, with a mighty effort, pulled up his team, but it was too late and two wheels passed over the little boy's body, crushing out his life. Chuestein, almost insane with srief, drove back to his home, five miles, with the body, without delivering his load. The Chuesteins have three other children. Lets (n Ofeo. The farmers of Michigan will find .a new proposition to cut the present prohibitive internal revenue tax on oleomargarine, a menace to the butter- making industry. Secretary Mac- Veagh, of the treasury, has worked out the details of a provision fixing a gat rate of two cents a pound. This rate is intended fo take the place of the 10-eent rati now taxed against colored oleomargarine and the half-cent rate taxed against uncolored. This change would probably reduce the price of butter by opening a wider market to oleo and would according to Mr. MacVeagh's figures, furnish about $2,000,000 in revenue. STATS BRIEFS.

BOPY FOUND IN A TRUNK Young Lady Had Assoolated With the Mongolian and a Horror Is the Re suit of I t The body of Miss Elsie Sigel, the 20-year-old daughter of Paul Bigel, a clerk employed in the New York board of health, and a son of Gen. Franz Sigel, .the late civil war veteran and former comptroller of the city of New York, was found Saturday evening crammed Into a trunk in the room occupied by a young educated Chinaman of the Sunday school type at 782 Eighth avenue. It was so badly decomposed as to be unrecognizable, but a locket and bracelet found upon it were identified, by Mrs. Sigel as the property of her daughter. The Chinaman disappeared from his lodging place a week ago, and It was the coroner's opinion that the body had been in the trunk fully that length of time. William L. Leon, the young Chinaman who occupied the room, was well known in missionary circles in the city. He was frequently seen with Miss Sigel. Miss Sigel disappeared from her home, June 9. • Around the neck of the young woman was a spangle, apparently a college or high school pin, bearing the initials E. C. S. Mr. Sigel examined this spangle first and said-that he could not, recall that his daughter had ever/had one like it. Then he looked at. the body and weut away declarlng/that it was not that J>f his daughter. The police, however, insisted o^sending the spangle and a b r a c e l e t s Mr. Sigel's home and having the mother of the girl examine it. She identified both articles. According to the story which Mr. Sigel told the police his daughter gave no warning when she left home on June 9. On the 12th, however, he received a telegram from Washington bearing his daughter's name. This telegram, so the police say, read as follows: "Will be home Sunday evening. Don't worry.—Elsie." Both Mr. Sigel's wife and her. daughter were interested in missionary work among the Chinese. It was through work of this sort that Miss Sigel met Leon. The police said that there was a picture of the missing Chinaman in the Sigel home. One or two persons informed the detectives that they had seen Miss Sigel with the Chinaman at the theater about a week ago. Her letters to "Dearest Lim," together with affectionate or imploring notes from another white woman who signed herself "Nellie/' and packets of picture postcards from a dozen white women, were found in the room of the Chinaman. Some of the letters were undated, Others went back to the spring of 1907. Still others had been written within a few weeks. All of them were signed simply Elsie, but they contained allusions that left no doubt as to identity of the girl who wrote them. A few of the longer ones reproached Leung Lim for coldness toward a girl that loved him, but many held no hint that she doubted the Chinaman's affection. On the contrary, they glowed warmly with assurances of her own devotion. There was not a word or a syllable in one of them which might point the way to understanding how Elsie Sigel came to her death in the lowceiled grimy room above the chop suey shop. The police heads studied these letters for hours, then, under straight orders from Commissioner Bingham, refused to allow them to be printed. Take it any way you like, said one in authority at headquarters, it was not a pleasant story and no reason appeared why Elsie Sigel's letters to the queueless missioner should be spread in public. It was sufficient to say that she was in love with the yellow man and that their intimacy had been closs. ReyA Abandons Office. Advices received from Cartagena, Colombia, confirm previous reports that Gen. Rafael Reyes, president of Colombia, has abandoned office and sailed for Europe. He embarked on a small fruit steamer at Santa Marta last Sunday, according to the Information received at Cartagena Monday night. It is believed the steamer is one of the Elder-Dempster line, bound direct for Southampton. The Cartagena advices state that the president's trip to Europe is known and approved by Gen. Jorge Holguin, the president-designate, and the ministry, and that it is Gen. Reyes's intention to return for the meeting of congress on July 20, if a majority of his countrymen so desire, or in case of a disturbance of the peace, which It considered a remote possibility.

Ray Lamphere Dying, In response to a letter from her brother, Ray Lamphere, Mrs. Finley hurried to the Michigan City, Ind., prison to see the prisoner notorious through his association with Mrs. GTxnness, the arch-mur dress, for the burning of whose home Lamphere was, sent to the penitentiary. Lamphere in his letter said he recently had suffered four hemorrhages; and believed death was Imminent. This belief was confirmed in the mind of Mrs. Finley by the refusal of the prison authorities to allow her to visit her brother in the hospital ward. Despite her pleadings the deputy warden was obdurate, replying: "Lamphere is extremely low and cannot see any one." It is understood an effort to secura his immediate parole will be made, but his demise is expected before this step can be taken. President Penna Deed. President Penna, of Brazil, died jMonday morning, according to a dispatch received at the state department from the American amabassador at Rio de Janeiro. His death was evidently very sudden. The last report of his doings concerned the opening of the Brazilian congress, May 4, and his message to that body, and two weeks later his refusal to accept the resignation of the Brazilian minister of finance. Dr. Penna was elected by universal suffrage in the 20 federated states in 1906 and assumed office November 15 of that year. His term expired in 1910. He was a native of the state of Minas Geraes, and his success was the outcome of a coalition of the principal states against San Paulo, which has supplied all past, presidents. The vicepresident of the republic is Nilo Pecanha. THE MARKETS.

The atory opens with the shipwreck of "the steamer on which Mltfs Genevieve Leslie, an American heiress, Ix>rd Winthrepe, an Englishman, and Tom Blake, •a brusyue American, were passengers. The three were tossed upon an uninhabited island and were • the only ones not ><irowned. Blake recovered from a drunken .stupor, Blake, shunned on the boat, because of his roughness, became a hero as preserver of the helpless pair. The Englishman was suing for the hand of Miss Leslie. Blake started to swim back to the ship to recover what was left. Blake returned safely, Winthrope wasted his last match on a cigarette, for which he was scored by Blake. Their first meal was a dead fish. The trio started a ten miie hike for higher land. Thirst attacked them. Blake was compelled to •carry Miss Leslie on account of weariness. He taunted Winthrope. They entered the Jungle. That night was passed roosting high In a tree. The next morning they descended to the open again. CHAPTER VI.—Continued. "How wide is it?" inquired Winthrope, gazing at his swollen hands. "About 300 yards at high tide. May l)e narrower at ebb." "Could you not build a raft?" suggested Miss Leslie. Blake smiled at her simplicity. "Why not a boat? We've got a penknife." •'Well, then, I can swim." "Bully for you! Guess, though, we'll try something else. The river is chuck full of alligators. What you waiting for, Pat? We haven't got all day to fool around here." Winthrope twisted the creeper about Ms leg and slid to the ground, doing all he could to favor his hands. He found that he could walk without pain, and at once stepped over beside Blake's club, glancing nervos*ly around at the jungle. Blake jerked up the end of the creeper, and passed the toop about Miss Leslie. Before she had time to become frightened he swung her over and lowered her to the ground lightly as a feather. He followed, hand under hand, and stood for a moment beside her, staring at the dew-dripping foliage of the jungle. Then the remains of the night's quarry caught his eye, and he walked over to examine them. "Say, Pat," he called, "these don't look like deer bones. I'd say—yes; there's the feet—it's a pig." "Any tusks?" demanded Winthrope. Miss Leslie looked away. A heap of bones, however cleanly gnawed, is not a pleasant sight. The skull of the animal seemed to be missing; but Blake stumbled upon it in a tuft of grass and kicked it out upon the open ground. Every shred of hide and gristle had been gnawed from it by the jackals; yet If there had been any doubt as to the creature's identity there was evidence to spare in the savage tusks which projected from the jaws. "Je-rusalem!" observed Blake; "this old boar must have been something of a scrapper his own self." *In India they have been known to kill a tiger. Can you knock out the tusks?" "What for?" "Well, you said we had nothing for arrow points—" "Good boy! We'll cinch them and ask questions later;" A few blows with the club loosened the tusks. Blake handed them over to Winthrope, together with the whisky flask, and led the way to the halfbroken patch through the thicket. A free use of his club made the path a little more worthy of the name, and as there was less need of haste than on the previous evening, Winthrope and Miss Leslie came through wlt'n only a few fresh, scratches. Once on open ground again, they soon gained the fallen palms. At a word from Blake, Miss Leslie hastened to fetch; ntfta for Winthrope to h'jsk and open. Blake, who had plucLed three leaves from a fan palm near the edge of the jungle, began to split long shreds from one of the huge leaves of a cocoanut palm. This gave him a quantity of coarse, stiff fiber, part of which he twisted in a cord and used to tie one of the leaves of the fan palm over her head. "How's that for a bonnet?" he demanded. The improvised head-gear bore to ^ ^ j M V r e a e m b U i n c e to a w c ^ T ^ a t f ^ ^ ^ Itu-css opinion without a "I think it 1» If we must t o It U just the thins type coul hat «i| "it la to protect one." "Ye* Here's two more I've Axe* for yon, jfceedy yet, Winthrope?" The Englishman JWfded, and the three sat down* to their third feast of cocoanut*. They were hungry enough at the start, and Blake added nollUIe keenness even to his own appetite by a, grim Joke, on the slender prospects of the next meal, to the effect that If in the meantime not eaten themselves they might possibly find their next meal within a week. "But If we must move,-could we not take some of the nuts with us?" suggested Winthrope. Blake pondered over this as he ate, and when fully satisfied he helped himself up with his club he motioned the others to remain seated. "There are your hata and the strings," he said, "but you won't need them now. I'm going to take * a prospect along the river, and while I'm gone, you can make a try at stringing nuts on Borne of this leaf fiber." "But, Mr. Blake, do you think it's quite safe?" asked Miss Leslie, and she glanced from him to the jungle. "Safe?" he repeated. "Well, nothing ate you yesterday, if that's anything to go by. It's all I know about it." He did not wait for further protests. Swinging his club on his shoulder he started for the break in t*e jungle which marked the hippopotamus path. The others looked at each other, and Miss Leslie sighed. "If only he were a gentleman!" she complained. Winthrope turned abruptly to the cocoanuts. C H A P T E R V H . Ground the Headland. T was mid morning before Blake reappeared. He came from the mangrove swamp where it ran down into the sea. His trousers were smeared to the thigh with slimy mud; but as he approached the drooping brim of. his palm-leaf hat failed to hide his exultant expression. "Come on!" he called. "I've struck it. We'll be over in half an hour." "How's that?" asked Winthrope. was enough tor bjan that thousand was [ follow, after Pat ha* retted his ankle. smooth and hard as a race track. Keep a sharp eye but for anything lnpresently the party came to the end the flint line—quart* or agate. That of the tplt, where th^ river water rip- Stopped to Survey the Coast Beyond. "Bar," answered Blake, hurrying forward. "Sling on your hats and get into my coat again, Miss Jenny. The sun's hot as yesterday. How about the nuts?" •'Here they are. Three strings; all that I fancied we could carry," explained Winthrope. "All right. The big one is mine, I suppose. I'll take two. We'll leave the other. Lean on me if your ankle is still weak." "Thanks; I can make it alone. But must we go through mud like that?" "Not on this side, at least. Come on! We don't want to miss the ebb." Blake's impatience discouraged further inquiries. He had turned as he spoke, and the others followed him, walking close together. The pace was sharp for Winthrope, and his ankle soon began to twinge. He was comjeM^ i to accept Miss Leslie's Invitatint i l take her arm. With her help he ;n*.n*ged to keep within a few yards of Blake. Instead of plunging into the mangrove wood, which here was underg ->wn ^ i t h a thicket of giant ferns, Blak' si.lrted around in the open until tt>^ came to the seashore. The tide was at its lowest, and he waved his club towards a long sand pit which curved out around the seaward edge of the mangroves. Whether this was part of the river's bar or had been heaped up by the cyclone would have been beyond Winthrope'* knowledge pled eve* the sand with the last feabh) ©tft-suck of the ebb. On their right they had a sweeping view of the river, arouhd t h e ffcnki 6¾ the mangrove, acn*en, .Blake halted a t the edge of the water and half, tamed, "Close up.'V he aaid- "Jt> shallow eaou«b; hut do you see (hose logs oyer on the mud-bunk? ,Those are alligators." "Mercy-—and you expect me to wade among such creatures?" cried Miss Leslie. x "I went almost across an hour ago and they didn't bother me any. xCome on! There's, a wind in that cloud out seaward. Inside half an hour the surf'Il be rolling up on this bar like all Niagara." "It we must, we must, Miss Genevieve," urged Winthrope. "Step behind me and gather up your skirts. It's best to keep one's clothes dry in the tropics." The girl blushed, and retained his arm. A "1 prerer 10 oelp you," she replied. "Come on!" called Blake, and he splashed out into the water. Th/> others followed within arm'slength, nervously conscious of the rows of motionless reptiles on the mud-flat, not 100 yards distant. In the center of the bar, where the water was a trifle over knee-deep, some large creature came darting downstream beneath the surface and passed with a violent swirl between Blake and his companions. At Miss Leslie's scream, Blake whirled about and jabbed with his club at the supposed alligator. "Where's the brute? Has he got you?" he shouted. "No, no; he went by!" gasped Winthrope. "There he is!" A long bony snout, fringed on either side by a row of lateral teeth, was flung up into view. "Sawfish!" said Blake, and he waded on across the bar without further comment. Miss Leslie had been on the point of fainting. The tone of Blake's voice revived her instantly. There were no more scares. A few minutes later they waded out upon a stretch of clean sand on the south of the river. Before them the beach lay in a flattened curve, which at the far end hooked sharply to the left and appeared \ o terminate at the foot of the towering limestone cliffs of the headland. A mile or more inland the river jungle edged in close to the cliffs; but from there to the beach the forest was separated from the wall of rock by a little sandy plain, covered with creeping plants and small palms. The greatest width of the open space was hardly more than a quarter of a mile. Blake paused for a moment at hightide mark, and Winthrope instantly squatted down to nurse his ankle. "I say, Blake," he said, "can't you find me some kind of a crutch? It is only a few yards around to those trees." "Good Lord! you haven't been fool enough to overstrain that ankle— Yes, you have. Dammit! why couldn't you tell me before?" "It did not feel so painful in the water." "I helped the best 1 could," interposed Miss Leslie. "I think if you could get Mr. Winthrope a crutch—" "Crutch!" growled Blake. "How long do you think it would take me to wade through the mud? And look at that cloud 1 We're in for a squall. Here!" He handed the girl the smaller string of cocoanuts, flung the other up the beach and stooped for Winthrope to mount his back. He then started off along the beach at a sharp trot. Miss Leslie followed as best she could, the heavy cocoanuts swinging about with every step and bruising her tender body. The wind was coming faster than Blake had calculated. Before they had run 200 paces they heard the roar of rain-lashed water, and the squall struck them with a force that almost overthrew the girl. With the wind came torrents of rain that drove through their thickest garments and drenchedvthem to the skin within the first half-minute. Blake slackened his pace to a walk and plodded sullenly along beneath the driving downpour. He kept to the lower edge of the beach, where the sand was firmest, for the force of the falling deluge beat down the waves and held in check the breakers which the wind sought to roll up the beach. The rain storm was at its height when they reached the foot of. the cliffs. The gray rock towered above them 30 or 40 feet high. Blake deposited Winthrope upon a wet ledge and straightened up to scan the headland. Here and there ledges ran more than half-way up the rocky wall; in other places the crest was notched by deep clefts; but nowhere within sight did either offer a continuous path to the summit. Blake grunted with disgust "It'd take a fire ladder to get up this side," he said. "We'll have to try the other, if we can get around the means fee. Another "thing, when this rata blows over, don't let your clothes d i ^ ©V you. ?ve got fi«r-"hands full eaimflh without having,! to nurse you through malarial fever. Don't forget the cocoanuts, and if 1 don't show up by noon save 4ne some." He stooped to drink from a pool in the rock which was overflowing with the cool, pure rainwater, and started , Off at his sharpest pace. Winthrope and Miss Leslie, seated side by side in dripping misery, watched him swing away through the rain without energy enough to call out a parting word. Beneath the cliff the sand beach was succeeded by a talus of rocky debris which in places sloped up from the water 10 or 15 feet. The lower part of the slope consisted of bowlders and water-worn stones, over which the surf, reinforced by the rising tide, was beginning to break with an angry roar. Blake picked his way quickly over the smaller stones near the top of the slope, now and then bending to snatch up a fragment that seemed to differ from the others. Finding nothing but limestone he soon turned his attention solely to the passage around the headland. Here he had expected to find the surf much heavier. But the shore was protected by a double line of reefs, so close in that channel between did not show a whitecap. This was fortunate, since in places the talus here sank down almost to the level of low tide. Even a moderate surf would have rendered farther progress impracticable. Another 100 paces brought Blake to the second corner of the cliff, which jutted out in a little point. He clambered around it and stopped to survey the coast beyond. Within the last few minutes the -squall had blown over and the rain began to moderate its downpour. The sun, bursting through the clouds, told that the storm was almost past, and its flood of direct light cleared the view. (TO BE CONTINUED.) S H O P P I N G I N F R A N C E I S E A S Y . Saleswomen A r e R e m a r k a b l y Adept a t T h e i r Business. That the saleswomen in European shops are wonderfully quick-witted has often been noted. This Is especially true of the French. Many of them, without understanding English, will interpret correctly the comments Americans make aside when examining goods, simply by studying their ges tures and facial expressions. Once in Brussels we were looking at gloves. To my certain knowledge the saleswoman was wholly unacquainted with the English language. My companion said privately to me: "I am afraid these gloves will spot." "O, no, madame," the saleswoman instantly interrupted, in French, "they will never spot at all." In Boulogne-sur-Mer, at a shop for men's furnishings, I asked for dress shirts. A very bright young woman gave me a quick, sharp glance, and then brought some specimens. They bore no distinguishing marks as to size. "Is there some man here who can take my measure?" I asked. "That is not necessary, sir," she replied, very sweetly. "Are you sure these will fit me?" "Perfectly." "But how can you tell?" I argued, unconvinced. "Why, sir," she explained in surprise at my doubt, "I looked at you." So I took the shirts to my room and tried them on, and surely enough, they were the best fit I ever had.—Travel Magazine. "Navigates" His Farm. A story which almost parallels that told of Capt. Gray, the sailor-farmer of Toddy Pond, who is said to carry a compass on his plow to run the furrows straight, comes from Cranberry isles. One sea captain, who enjoys the proud distinction of owning one of the very few horses on the island, got. alarmed for fear that he would lose his bearings in the recent smoke, and on the veracious accounts of sober citizens took the binnacle from the vessel and strapped it alongside the seat of his wagon, fearing that the weather might become so thick that he would lose his bearings and have to navigate in what was worse than a fog. It is currently reported that he shouts at his team to turn to starboard or port, instead of the more conventional landlubber term's usually employed. — Kennebec (Me.) Journal.

W O N T MIX Bad Food and Good Health W o n t Mix, The human stomach stands much abuse but it won't return good health if you give it bad food. If you feed right you will feel right, for proper food and a good mind is the sure road to health. "A year ago I became much alarmed about my health for I began to suffer after each meal no matter how little I ate," says a Denver woman. "I lost my appetite and the very thought of food grew distasteful, with the result that I was not nourished and got weak rnd thin. • "My home cares were very heavy, for besides a large family of my own I have also to look out for my aged mother. There was no one to shoulder my household burdens, and come what might, I must bear them, and this thought nearly drove me frantic when I realized that my health was breaking down. "I read an article in the paper about some one with trouble just like mine being cured on Grape-Nuts food and acting on this suggestion I gave Grape- Nuts a trial. The first dish of this delicious food proved that I had struck the right thing. "My uncomfortable feelings in stomach and brain disappeared as if by magic and in an incredibly short space of time I was myself again. Since then I have gained 12 pounds in weight through a summer of hard work and realize I am a very different woman, all due to the splendid food, Grape-Nuts." "There's a Reason." Trial wilKprove.

Dallas, Texas, June 1 2 , 0 9 Mr. F. L. Andrews, " Dear Sir: Reading the interesting letters of some of my dear Pinckney friends and former music pupils who are in the South, inspired me to accept your kind invitation to join the family circle and give you a little of my experience. After living in J'exas twenty-six years, I have become so accustomed to the condition of things, I almost forget ethers do not understand and might be interested in hearing about them. I have never lost my northern spirit and like Miss Burch, I am often stirred with righteous iudignation, over the mistreatment of the colored race. While many of them are "not worth killing" some are as houorable as any white person. Lucy, my "maid" (as* she prefers to be called,) is one oi the true and faithful ones. I tell her we will will both enter the same door of Heaven; and when we get in, she will be as white as I. One of her favorite songs is "Whiter than Snow." I wish you could hear her sing. I love to hear her sing; not because there is any music in her voice but because she puts her whole soul in it; she sings only Gospel songs and is a wonderful missionary among her people. I know of many a one she has led into a better life; even her own husband was converted this winter through her influence. When she first came to me nearly two years ago, I asked her if shs was a Christian; she replied very emphatically, "Yes ma'am." I said, "Is your husband a Chiistian?" S h e said, "No, ma'am; he's a sinner; he dances." A funeral has a perfect facination for the darkies and they will leave everything to watch a procession; they have a great horror of not having a decent burial; conseqently they nearly all belong to some lodge which provides for them iu case of sickness and death. Lucy belongs to one of these; and one day in telling me the advantage derived from it, she said "they told me if you should die, Lucy, we suttenly won ft] fliberalize you good." A few days later, I thought their opportunity had come, for she was awfully sick. I 'phoned her colored doctor to come iu haste, for I knew his medicine was what had caused the trouble. Afterwards, in making excuses for him, she said, "The reason he purpe me so bad inside, was for the rheumatic rheumatism." She would like to go North with me this summer; but said "George says you is the onlyest pusson he would let me go with." My husband is in Denver, Colo. • now for his health, but does not improve as he hoped; so is likely i to return soon and may go to Mexjieo where he has been greatly ben- I efitted before. My son graduated from a preparatory school here | this year and hopes to enter the |mining school at Golden, Colo, in !the jail. | We have taken the "Dispatch" since the first copy was issued and would not be without it. We are aiway'S witb_ you in spirit a,t the reunions, and hope some time to be present in body. And my prayer is, "When the roll is called up yonder, we will all be there." M. J.

When Hunt joined the rapidly swelling ranks to investigate he saw a man on his hands and knees eating g^rass with seeming relish.

He tackled a couple of shrubs rather ravenously and seemed oblivious to the surrounding and laughing crowd. Hunt climbed over the wall and grabbed the grass eater, who became offended and sought to escape. He fought for a few minutes, when he suddenly became pacified, Then he dropped to his knees again and Insisted on'eating more grass. When the prisoner saw water he became unmanageable and frantic.

NEW VARIETIES OF TOMATOES] Fpr Special Tsbtt Use—Required by Largs Hotels — Qreen-House- Qrown Fruit Most Desirsbls, The torei .g of tomatoes under glass has assumed considerable proportions in the middle and northern states, and the demand for the greenhouse- grown crop is steadily Increasing. This is due to the fact that tomatoes when grown under glass are superior to those that-are grown In the extreme southern states and which must necessarily be picked partially green and shipped long distances before reaching our markets. For special table use, such a s is demanded by large hotels, the greenhouse- grown fruit will always be In demand. A number of varieties have been put on the market for cultivation under glass. Some of these are very good, but none has all the characteristics which would render it ideal. ' The ideal tomato is one with the following characters combined: 1. A fruit without a depression at the stem end. 2. A round fruit without ridges. X. A fruit with the interior well formed and compact. 4. A fruit 6? medium sift growing in large clusters. ft.

Only about 20 of the last selection showed decidedly promising results. As the time taken to test a new tomato thoroughly is loner than with most vegetables, the work will continue in an experimental state for some time. GOOD FARM SUGGESTIONS. Be very careful about giving the brood mares heavy loads at this season, but they must have enough gentle exercise to keep them in good form. Now doth the little Ipuse get in.his work on the chickens. Keep going the whitewash brush, the powder can and the kerosene sprayer. The farm well often sends up from its cool depths the rankest kind of typhoid germs. See that no foul water drains into it from the surface or seeps through from outhouses. Spread a large sheet under the plum tree and jar Mr. Curculio off his perch. He turns out over one brood a year and any fruit that showB his sting should be burned. A good time to transfer the bees from old-fashioned wooden hives into new ones is when the blossoms are plentiful. The poultry water vessels should be given, more attention than ever. Do you know young chicks often die from regular chills? Well, they do.- Keep them dry and warm on damp, cHilly days. » DISK-HARROWING OF ALF4LFA , 11 . y i . . 1 . At a TrllHnf.

Although requiring rather peculiar climatic and soi^ conditions^. yet celery can be grown both for home use and market over a wider area than most people think. Almost everybody Is fond of celery, and it is a healthful vegetable food. With a little study and experience in growing it, celery might be on the table of ten times the number of homes that it now is, and it might be grown for market by twice the number of gardeners that already grow it. Celery loves a cool climate, and a light, fertile, humus-laden, moist soil. The ideal climatic conditions for the production of celery are bright sunshine, pure air, cool nights and a well distributed rainfall of about eight inches during the growing period in the field or garden. In the production of celery for domestic use, a rich, mellow, sandy loam will give the best results. The soil of the seed bed should contain plenty of leaf mold and should be passed through a sieve having not less than six meshes to the inch. The soil of the transplanting bed need not be sifted so fine, and some well rotted barnyard manure should replace a part of the leaf mold; in other* respects it should be the same as the seed bed. Any fertile, well drained soil will grow celery, but a rich, loose, sandy loam is preferable. The soil cannot well be made too rich, and the presence of a large amount of humus or vegetable mold is an essential for large and rapid growth. In the regions where peat bogs or muck soil abound the crop may be more easily produced on these than on any other soils, but the keeping qualities are not so good, and the flavor is never equa1 to that of celery grown on sandy loam, or even on clay soils. If nothing but clay soil is available, it may be made to produce good celery by lib eral application of well rotted ma nure. On clay soils there is likely tc be injury caused by the soil becom ing washed into the hearts of the plants while they are yet small. Artificial Stone Posts. Good sharp, hard cinders with sane and cement, without broken stones will make good artificial stone posts or other concrete work, but the cin ders must be as hard, sharp and grittj as the best gravel or broken stone Any artificial stone object made o' cinders has the advantage of being much lighter than when made of stont or gravel. Late Potatoes. Potatoes planted after June 1 m a j not mature before frost. Potatoes like other crops, need plant food.

Read, went to Lakeland and gave her a farewell party as she returned to her home in Grand Rap* ids Tuesday morning. A fine time is reported and the day will long be remembered by those present. We are in receipt of the Book-Keeper, published at New York, Detroit* etc., and note that our old friend, G. P. Brown is editor. The magazine is full of good things for the busy business man and helps him in all business matters. It not only contains help for him but severe' excellent business stories that help pass away time and rest the tired hustler. Art Flintoff of Pettysville is busy making improvements on the buildings recently purchased of R. Clinton on west Main street. One of them he is remodeling for a residence and will then move to the village and put the other in shape for a machine and blacksmith shop. A Machine shop is much needed here and we consider it a good move on the part of Mr. Flmtcft. Some people who generally consider themselves gentlemen so far forget, themselves (?) sometimes as to use such language in the hearing of ladies that if published in the local paper would bnrn boles in it and send the publisher to the penitentiary. There is a law againgt such things and there may come a time when forbearance will cease to be a virtue, friendship laid a?ide and the law called upon. There was a large nnmber present at the morning services and there was no excuse for any staying at home —the day was perfect and they were sure of hearing something good. The sermon was to the young especially but was well adapted to all and all were interested. The evening sermon was taken up on account of it being the evening of the Baccalaureate address at St. Marys church. Sunday school was well attended as well there being 98 registered. Next Sunday come early for this service. There will be somewhat of a change in the holding of the seryices next Sunday and hereafter during the summer months at least if it is found to meet with success. This will be that the morning preaching service, will commence at the regular hour promptly— 10:30 and close as promptly at 11:90 with a song and that song will be the opening tong of Sunday school and all are expected to remain for the session as it will close promptly at* 12 or at the time it has been commencing usually. This is done to give all a chance to attend Sunday school and get home at the usual time so there will be no excuse. The benediction will not be pronounced until the close of 8unday school at 12. This plan is being tried in several places with good success. Remember you will get home as early as before, There will be no time for visiting between the services and you can stay as long after them as you wish. "Evijry child in the chnrcb service and eyery church attendant in the 8unday school" will be the slogan for the next few weeks. It is a good motto; let us live up to it. Last Sabbath was a beautiful day and a goodly nnmber improved the opportunity of hearing what might be terraed one of the finest baccalaureate sermons ever preached in Ptnokaey, although it was only intended for the young people of the church. Judging from the renarks of commendation after the service, it was one of the most helpful and pleasing sermons to the older ones that our pastor has given, We often hear it said, the last sermon seemed to be the best. The music was very much appreciated. You are welcome to all the services of the church—ome with ni, we will do you good. Confirmation S e r v i c e Wednesday the beautiful and impressive servioe of confirmation was held at St. Mary's churob when a class of 95 took the vows of the church.

The church was decorated in a very becoming style and the words "Suffer the little children to come unto me," were suspended over the platform. It certainly seemed as if they had all come, as it kept the ushers guessing to get them all seated. The little ones did fine and a great deal of credit and praise is due the committee who had charge of this part of the work. The committee were determined to win and the exercises together with the remarks that were heard on all sides, proved the success which crowued their efforts. The general opinion was that the exercises were the best they had heard. "H painting John Harrii' rtf^Uooe Mrt.

Homer C. Haskerville, a young American who was killed whijja loading & softie, of the revolutionists, evidently was a gallant and impulsive youth, but he was an American citizen and a missionary in tWe "service of his church. Leading revolutions was tjuite apart from hte pofltt c'al and religious duties. The flisavowal of,hisn acts by the government ot the United States an4,i>y the chirrcb board he served prevented t h e matter from becoming an international question; but ittis pitiful that a young man with so many commendable qualities should fall <a victim to grave error of judgment and that thus there should be brought to an untimely end a life full of promise of high usefulness. T DAMAGE CANAL EVER HAD THE CANADIAN LOCKS AT THE SAULT ARC 86WIOU3LY DAMAGED. THE WJ?ECK IS A BAD ONE It seems that as long as the English suffragettes conduct their meetings in a quiet, peaceful, dignified and ladylike manner the papers refuse t o notice them. So to have themselves reported by the public press it is necessary for them to raid ministers' houses, attack parliament, chain themselves to posts of advantage, fight policemen and in other ways lead the strenuous life. This is quite a severe indictment by implication of the chiv aw-y of the British j*re«58, and gives the women Justification in saying: "It ir all the men's fault." aers Peace by disarmament receives a notable Impetus from "the order of the war department discontinuing the sale at auction of obsolete firearms discarded by the United States army. If our friendB in Central America a r e too poor to buy new guns when the notion seizes them to set up a revolution and overthrow a government, they must perforce keep quiet and let the existing government alone if they can no longer buy cheap, but good, old guns from us. Thus does war become more and more a luxury reserved for the wealthy. The latest fad in t h e development of luxury on transatlantic, steamers is the report that one of the stewards on a Certain liner has charge of a garden patch from which strawberries, lettuce, radishes, etc., a r e picked on order. The crops of this garden bring high prices, t h e strawberries going at two dollars for n small box. But it is not likely that there will be a general adoption of gardening on shipboard because of the excellence of refrigerator accommodations on the average liner. The Indiana woman who has been married ten times is held to have had but nine husbands, because she married one of them the second time, a divorce and one or two other husbands paving Intervened. But if the argument of those who hold that we have had 27 presidents instead of 26. because Cleveland was elected and Is counted twice, is sound, then she miis: on the some line of reasoniriR have had ten husbands. From all sides come reports nf increased business, notably as regards the railroads and indupfrial concerns.

The Canadian locks at Sault Ste. Marie were wrecked Wednesday afternt. m, The steamers Asslnibbfa, of the t\ P. R. line, and a freighter of the Gilchrist line were locking up when suddenly and without warning one of ihe leaves of the upper gate gave way and the water from the higher level rushed In, sweeping both boatti und the lower gates before it. Both vessels were injured and t h e Assinibola went to the bottom a few- Hundred feet below the lower entrance and directly In the channel. The flood from the upper level poured through the canal at a terrific pace. Efforts to lower the movable dam above t h e upper gates were promptly made. The steel trust steamer Empire City was htt by the Assinibola a* she was swept out of the lock and has, a big hole In her bow. She reached the American side and Is tied up at t h e government pier, where she is slowly sinking. Later the steamer Walker was sunk at the lower entrance to the canal. The Assiniboia was finally moved from the channel and tied up to the government pier on the American; side. The accident was due to the steamer hitting the lower gate as she entered, the lock above. T h e gate was carried away and the wate^.poufc.d through it as a terrific rate, sweeping all before it. The Empire City and Assiniboia w e - in the lock chamber. The Gilchr liner Perry • G." Walker wa* 'tied above. T h e latter broke her line J was swept through the canal. 1* the worst wreck in the history of canal. The forces at work on Saturday was reporied, forced in the la*t \vi et of the movable dam. which, il stands the strain, will check the ru ing water. With the shutting off the current work will be rushed installing new gates to replace th< which were wrecked. Promising Crops.

The ^booting of Callahan ia expected to revive the ofd trouble and, unless strong measures ar* taken immediately, the . same lawless conditions are likely to prevail. Callahan had . swept out h i s ' l i t t b ) store in CrockettKville and was standing in the front doorway with the btoora in his hands when there wa.s a crack of a rifle and he fell back. A puff of smoke in the woods 150 yard* away told where the would-be assassin had waited with his Winchester for the appearance of the former sheriff The immediate cause of this inoM recent shooting is thought to. have been u dispute over the management, of a church Callahan built ifi Crockettsville and of which he is a'deacon.

Tli** story opens with the shipwreck of (lie s t e a m e r un which Mian Genevieve Jjt-slie, a n American heiress, i*ord W i n - tin ope, a n Englishman, and T o m Blake, a brusque American, were passengers. The. three were tossed upon a n uninhabited island and were t h e only ones not <lrown«d. Blake recovered front a drunken Ltupur. Blake, shunned on the boat, he-cause of his roughness, became a hero a3 preserver of the helpless pan-. The E n g l i s h m a n w a s suing for t h e hand of Miss Leslie. Blake started to s w i m back to th*s ship to recover w h a t w a s left. Blake returned safely. Winthrope waated his last match on a cigarette, for which h e w a s scored by Blake. Their first meal w a s a dead fish. T h e trio started a ten mils hike for higher land. T h i r s t attacked them. Blake w a s compel lad to carry Miss Leslie on account of weariness. He taunted Winthrope. T h e y entered t h e Jungle. CHAPTER V.—Continued. "You'd find those thorns a whole lot worse," muttered Blake. "To be sure; and Miss Lestfe fully appreciates your kindness," interposed Winthrope. "I do Indeed. Mr. Blake! I'm aure I never could go through here without your coat." "That's all right. Got the handkerchief?" '1 put it in one of the pockets." "It'll do to tie up your hair.*' Miss Leslie took the suggestion, knotting t h e big square of linen over her fluffy brown hair. Blake waited only for her, to draw out the, kerchief before h e began to force a way through the jungle. Now and then he beat at ihe tuugled vegetation with his elub. Though he held to the line by which he had left the thicket, yet all his effortB failed to open an easy passage for the others. Many of. the tHrSrhy^rahches sprang hack into place behind him. and as Miss Leslie, who was the first to follow, sought to thrust them aside the (home pierced her delicate skin until her hands were covered with blood. Nor did Winthrope, stumbling and hobbling behind her, fare any better. T w i c e ' h e tripped headlong Into the brush, scratching his arms and face, Blake took his own punishment as a matter of course, though bis tougher and thicker skin made his injuries less painful. He advanced, steadily along the line of bent and broken twigs that marked his outward passage, until the thicket opened on a strip of grassy ground beneath a wild fig-tree. "By Jove!" exclaimed Winthrope, "a hanyan!" "BanyHn? Well, if that's British for a daisy, you've hit It," responded Blake. "Just take a squint up here. How's that f o r ' a roost?" Winthrope and Miss Leslie stared up dubiously at the edge of a bed of reeds gathered in the hollow of one of the huge flattened branches at Its junction with the main trunk of the banyan, 20 feet above therri. "Will not the mosquitoes pester us here among the trees?" objected Wrathrope. "Storrn must, have blown 'em away. T haven't seen any yet." ''There .will be million's after sunset." v "Maybe; but I bet. they keep below our ro(/st." "Bpt how are we to g e t up so high?" inquired Miss Leslie. "I can s w a h n t h i 3 drop root, and I've a creeper ready for you two," explained Blake. Baking action to words, he climbed Igp t h e small trunk, of the a i r root and Wmitg over into the hollow where he j h i piled the reeds. Across the W s d limb dangled:* rope-like creeper, one end of which he had fastened to a k branch higher tip. He flung down the free end to Wfnthropw. "Look lively, Pat," he called. "The sun's most gone, and twilight, don't last all night in these parts. Get .fhe line around Miss Leslie, and do what yon can on a boost." "T see; but. you know, t h e vine in too stiff to tie." Blake -stifled1 an oath sml .terked the ond of the creeper up Into his hand. When h e threw It down again it was looped around and Castened tti a bowline knot. •» j >.

As Miss Leslie seated herself In the loop he reached down and began to haul up on the creeper, hand over hand. Though frightened, by/jlje novel manner of ascent the girl clung tightly to the line above her head, and Blake bad no dlfllculty in raising; her until she swung directly beneath him. Here, however, He found himself in » quandary. The girl seemed a s helpless as a child, and be was lying fiat. How could he l«ft her above the level of t h e branch? "Take hold the other line," he said. The girl hesitated. "Do you hear? Grab it quick, and pull up hard if you don't want a t u m b l e ! " The girl seized t h e part of' the creeper which was fastened above and drew herself up with convulsive energy. Instantly Blake rose to his knees, and grasping the taut creeper with one hand reached down with the other to swing th<* girl up beside him on t h e branch. "AH' right, Miss Jenny," he reassured h e r a s he felt h e r tremble. "Sorry to scare you, but 1 couldn't have made it without. Now, if you'll just hold down my legs we'll soon hoist bis ludshlp." He bad seated her in t h e broadest part of t h e shallow hollow, where t h e branch joined t h e main trunk of t h e fig. Heaped with the reeds which h e had gathered during t h e afternoon it made such a cozy shelter that she at once forgot h e r dizziness and fright. Nestling among t h e reeds, she leaned over and pressed down on his ankles with a i r her strength. The loose end of t h e creeper had fallen to the ground when Blake lifted ner upon the branch and Winthrope was already slipping into the loop. Blake ordered hlra to take It off and send up t h e club. As the creeper was again flung down a black shadow swept over t h e jungle. "Hello! Sunset!" called Blake "Look sharp, t h e r e ! " "All ready," responded Winthrope. Blake drew in a full breath, and De gan to hoist. T h e position was an awkward one, and Winthrope weighed 30 or 40 pounds more than Miss Les- Y ^ ' r * "It's Only a Beast That's Killed Some thing Down Below." lie. But as t h e Englishman came within reach of the descending loop he grasped it and did what he could to ease Blake's efforts. A few mo ments found htm as high above the ground a a ' Blake could raise him. Without waiting for orders, he swung 'himself upon the upper part of the ereerfer add climbed t h e last few feet unaided. Blake grunted with satisfaction as he pulled him in upon the branch. "You may do, after all," he said. "At any rate, we're all aboard for the night; and none too soon. Hear t h a t ? " " W h a t ? " "Lion, I guess— Not that yelping. Listen!". The brief twilight was already fading into t h e darkness of a moonless night, and as the three crouched together In j their shallow nest they were soon made audibly aware of the savage nature of their surroundings. With t h e gathering night, the jungle wakened Into full life. From all sides came }Jie harsh squawking of birds, the weird cries of monkeys and other small creatures, the crash of heavy animals mavins through the jungle-, and above all the yelp and howl and roar of boasts of orey. After some contention with Winthrope, Blake conceded that the roars Of his Hon might ' b e nothing worse than the snorting of the hippopotami as they came out to hrowse for tho night, In this, however, there, was small comfort, since Winthrope presently reasserted his belief in the ,clinching ability of leopards, and expressed his opinion that, whether o r 1 not t h e r e were, .Jjpas in t h e neighbor*; hood, certain of the-barking roars they could hear came from the throats of the spotted climbers. Even Blake's hair; bristled a s his imagination pictured one of the great cats Creeping upon them in the darkness front the far end of th,elr nest lhrib, or reaping UQWO out of t h e upper branches. Tue nerves of all three were at their highest tension when a dark form swjjpt jjast through the air within a yard of their, faces. Miss Leslie uttered * stifled scream and Blake brandished bja club. But Winthrope, who had caught a glimpse of t h e creature's shape, broke into a nervous laugh. "It's only a fruit bat," h e explained. "They feed on the banyan figs, you know." In t h e reaction from this false alarm, both men relaxed and began to yield to the effects of the tramp across the mud-flats, Arranging the reeds a s boat they could they stretched out on either side of Miss Leslie and fell asleep in the middle of an argument on how t h e prospective leopard was mostly likely to attack. Miss Leslie remained awake for two or three hours longer. Naturally she was more nervous than h e r companions, and she had been refreshed by her afternoon's nap. H e r nervousness w a s not entirely due to t h e wild beasts. Though Blake had taken pains to secure himself and his companions in loops of the creeper, fastened to the branch above, Winthrope moved about so restlessly In his sleep that the girl feared he would roll from (the hollow. At last her limbs became so cramped that she was compelled io change h e r position. S h e leaned back upon her «lbow, determined to rise again and maintain h e r watch the moment she was rested. But sleep w a s close upon her. T h e r e was a lull in the louder noises of t h e jungle. H e r eyes closed, and h e r head sank lower. In a little time it was1 lying upon Winthrope's shoulder and she was fast asleep. As Blake had asserted, t h e mosqaitoes had either been blown away by the cyclone or did not fly to such a height. None came to trouble t h e exhausted sleepers. CHAPTER V I . Man and Gentleman. 1GHT had almost passed, and all three, soothed by the refreshing coolness which preceded tbe dawn, were sleeping their s o u n d e s t when a sudden fierce roar followed instantly by a piercing squeal c a u s e d e v e n Blake to start up in panic. Miss Leslie, too terrified to scream, olung to Winthrope, who crouched on his haunches, little less overcome. Blake was the first to recover and puzzle out the meaning of the crashing in t h e jungle and rhe ferocious growls directly beneath them. "Lie still," he whispered. "We're all right. It's only a beast that killed something down below u s . " All sat listening, and a s the noise of the animals in the thicket died away they could hear the beast beneath them tear at the body of Its victim. "The air feels Hke dawn," whispered Winthrope. "We'll sooaJbe able to see the brute." "And h e us," rejoined Blake. In this both were mistaken. During the brief false dawn they were puzzled hy the odd appearance of the ground. T h e sudden flood of full daylight found them staring down into a dense white fog. "So they have that h e r e ! " muttered Blake—"fever-fog!" "Beastly shame!" echoed Winthrope. "I'm sure the creature h a s gone off." This assertion was m e t by an outburst of snarls and yells that made all start back and crouch down again in their sheltering hollow. As before Blake was the first to recover. "Bet. you're right," he said. "The big one has gone off, and a pack of these African coyotes a r e having a scrap over-the bones." "You mean jackals. It. sounds like the nasty beasts." u "If ir wasn't for that fog I'd s o down and get our share of the game." "Would it. not be very dangerous, Mr. Blake?" asked Miss Leslie: "What a fearful noise!" "I've chased coyotes off a calC with a rope; but that's not the proposition. You don't find me, fooling around In that sewer gas o f , a fog. We'll roovst right where we a r e till the sun does for it. We've got enough malaria in us already." "Will it he Ions;. Rlake"" asked Winthrope. "Huh? Getting hungry this quick'? Wait, till you've tram pod around a we^k, with nothing to pat hut your shoes." 'Surely, Mr. Blake, it will uot be so bad!" protested Miss Leslie. Sorry, Miss J e n n y ; but eocoanut palnwj don't biaw o v e r every day, and when those nuts a r e gone what a r e we «oing to do for tbe next meal?" "Could we not make bows?" suggested Winthrope. "There sf**M<* to be no end of game about." "Bdwa—and t r r o w s without points! Neither of u s could hit a b a r s door, anyway." <»*" " L • We coufH pr**fce7' ; "Sure—s^t #UW ''training, on a!r puddinx. 1 c a n do better with a nandfi$. otWtu0tes.'*lf --5 " 'n^aeri we'shexild go a r once-to the cliffs,"-' said fclfaS LesHe. "Now you're talking—and it's Pike Peak or bust for ours. Here's oft« night to the good; but we won't last many more if WQ don't &et Are. It's flints we're after now." "Gould we not make fire by rubbing sticks?" said Winthrope, recalling'bis suggestion of the previous morning. "I've heard t h a t natives have n o trouble—y'y ' "So've i, and what's more, I've seen 'em do it. Never could make a go of It. myself, though." "But iT you remember how it is done wt* have at least some chance—" "Give you tea to one odds! No; we'll scratch around for a fliut good and plenty before we waste time that way." "The mist is going," observed Miss ljeslle. "That's no lie. Now for our coyotes. Where's my club?" "They've all left," said Winthrope, peering down. "I can see t h e ground clearly, and there is uot a sign of t h e beasts." "There a r e the bones— what's left of them," added Blake. "It's a small deer, I suppose. Well, here goes." He threw down his club and dropped the loose end of the creeper after it. As t h e line straightened he twisted t h e upper part around his leg and was about to slide t o the gTound when h e remembered Miss Leslie. "Think you c a n make it alone?" h e asked. The girl held up her hands, sore and swollen from t h e lacerations ot t h e thorns. Blake looked a t them, frowned, and turned to Winthrope. "Um! you got it, too, and in t h e face," h e grunted. "How's your ankle?" Winthrope wriggled his foot about and felt t h e injured ankle. "I fancy it is much better," h e answered. "There seems to be no swelling, and there i s no pain now." "That's lucky; though it will tune up later. Take a slide, now. We've got to hustle our breakfast and find a way to get over the river." (TO B E CONTINUF1D.) ARM IS LONGER T H A N T H E LEG.

There are m e n whose a r m s when they walk are like a couple of excited pendulums, trying to emulate the stride of the leg, the right arm swinging in unison with the movement of the left leg, and the left arm keeping time with the right leg. The military man is taught not to swing his arms; the civilian swings expansively, often covering a bigger radius than that covered by his legs. When a man swings his arms excessively he appears to be paddling along. Wrhen a man doesn't swing his arms at till he seems to be advancing automatically. He is altogether uncanny. The Gorilla de Luxo has arms seven inches longer than his legs. Can any reader tell instantly, without using a tstjie measure, which is the longer, his a n a or his leg"? Not one! The universal reply wtft be—the leg. All wrong. The arm of a well-formed person, man or woman, measured from fhe pit. should be three-quarters of an inch longer than the leg, measured from the crotch. The runner usually carries his arm bent at the elbow. Why? The best runners are pigeon-toed. Why? Most athletes turn in their toes. Why?

"Wb'afa the matter, J o h n ? " sonw one inquired. "Oh, me sick—me stek as dev," replied t h e man, rolling his head still more distressingly a n d continuing t h e rubbing of his Btomach. "Sick?

PRESSED H A R D Coffee's Weight on Old Age. Sounds Which Carry at Sea. Examinations by naval experts in wireless telephony as to the sound which will carry the greatest distance at sea develops that a siren under 72 pounds ot steam pressure will emit a blast which may be heard 40 miles. Next comes the steam whistle, the sound of which is carried 20 miles.

Her clothes are comely rather than costly, and s h e makes plain cloth to be velvet by her handsome wearing of it. She is none of our dainty dames, who love to appear in variety of suits every day new—as if a good gown, like a stratagem in war, were to be used but once; but our good wife sets up a sail according to the keel of her husband's estate; and if of high parentage, she does not so remember what she was by birth, that, she for gets what, s h e is by match.—Thomas Fuller.

S h e usually w e n t o u t about 0 o'clock in t h e xnoruing a n d remained moat of t h e day, but there wan nothing regular either about her going or her staying. Sometimes ahe would remain tu t h e house for several d a y s at a time, and sometimes when s h e went out i n the morning would return before noon a n d not g o out again. There w a s a good deal about Miss Tully that Interested me. S h e w a s never for a long period in t h e s a m e mood. One day s h e would be merry a s a cricket, the next in t h e depths of despair. Then s h e would be subject to iits of anger, w h e n no one rared to approach her. A n y sensible person may judge from this that Miss Tully w a s not likely to make a good wife, but I have noticed In young m e n a disposition to neglect t h e girls w h o are especially fitted to make homes comfortable for those w h o are s o constituted a s to make a husband's life a burden. A t a n y rate, I became fascinated with Miss Tully's moods. At our first meeting there w a s a girlish gladness about her that w a s simply delicious. A f e w d a y s later s h e m e t me with an imperious look on her face that well nigh froze the marrow i n my bones. T h e jiext week my pity w a s excited by a melancholy that w a s no less becoming than her sprightllness or her regal dignity. It w a s not long before I w a s madly in love. But, realizing the folly of making a life partner of a girl w h o w a s not only changeable BB t h e wind, but w h o m I k n e w nothing about—indeed, whose mode of support w a s a mystery—I fought against my passion. All to no purpose. I w a s caught in a mesh and unable to extricate myself. One evening Miss Tully and I were sitting in the drawing room—the boarders, seeing my infatuation, had by this time come to give up the apartment to us—side by side on a sofa. It w a s in the spring of the year, and Misa Tully was like the season, light hearted, ex uberant in spirits and, it seemed to me, willing to listen to love's young dream. Little by little I turned my words upon that dream, which by this time had en thralled me. Miss Tully t a w my drift and seemed to yield to a pleased languor, listening eagerly to what I said. I poured into her ear all a lover could say, leading up to a proposal, when she stopped me and said ecstatically: "Say it all again." I confess I w a s puzzled—Indeed, a trifle put out. T o repeat my glowing words w a s not t o my mind. Fortunately my embarrassment w a s relieved by a maid entering with a note for Mis* Tully. She opened and read it. From that moment s h e w a s changed. H e r light hearteduess disappeared and with it h«r apparent interest in what I had been saying t o her. Smarting under this sudden indifference. I left her. The next evening at dinner I noticed that Miss Tully appeared to have something on her mind of an exasperating nature. Her teeth were set, and her eyes were tilled with flashes, coming at long intervals, like heat lightning on a summer night. After dinner I w a s going up to my room when she passed me in the hall, g a v e me a glance I did not understand and went into the drawing room. I followed. We were alone there, and. turning on me like a fury. she began to accuse me of some unexpressed crime, working herself into a very demon. In vain I begged her te tell me what I had done. Without heeding me s h e talked on, or, rather, stormed on, till at last, seeing no prospect of an end to what w a s like a storm swaying to the east, to the west, anywhere, everywhere in accordance with its unbridled passion, I left the room. The next morning 1 made an effort to escape from this mad creature. 1 took an early train. For n week I remained away, then, professing to myself to feel confident of my ability to resist the fascination, returned to the house and Miss Tully. At our first meeting I s a w upon her face the most engaging sadness. She gave me a reproachful look, which 1 took to express pain that. 1 had kept a w a y from her. I longed to take her in ray arms; hut. with a muffled moan, she went up t o her room. I s a w nothing of her for a week. Then s h e w a s plain Miss Tully, neither happy nor miserable nor angry. S h e gave me a smile, put out her hand to m e and, intimating that she had something to say to me. led the w a y into the drawing room. "I o w e yon an explanation." she said, "and I am going to reveal to you that which no one else in this house k n o w s I am an artists' model. 1 never pose. however, except in proper clothing and only for artists w h o wish to > ateh an They have lou;:>l :;;e \ ery \ersaitle ia this respect, and 1 have lweu successful.

The comforts that he talked of were due, to. lily's Ingenuity, thrift and selfaacrittce, and not to his liberality, as he so fondly imagined.

They quickly dropped them from sight and began to talk with embarrassed haste, all except mother.; she was as serene as a day in June. Mary brought on the soup. Whipple passed the crackers, and discovered that the cracker jar concealed a large patch op the tablecloth.

The corners of mother's tuotith twitched, and Sterling remarked politely that "he supposed not." Mary came in bearing a platter upon which .> rolled. Uke so uiauy marbles, six hard balls of chopped meat, the aoup, iu«at in disguhio. "What's this we have?" iuquired Whipple blankly- "Meat balls,"replied uiotbwr in her sweetest and suavest tones. Sterling pinched himself under the table to keep back the fiendish desire he bad to yell when Whipple, after pursuing one of the little hard balls urouud and around the platter with a spoon, finally captured it on the side and tried to mash it. It flew from under the spoon like quicksilver, and another exciting chase ensued before he finally got it ou Sterling's plate. In the covered dishes were boiled turnips, onions and potatoes. The conversation during the meal v.as forced, except by mother. It was hard to be ^ay on turnips, but mother bubbled over with good humor, and Whipple's silent prayer was that the meat ball would choke her to death. Every time Sterling thought of the "comforts of home" he had a fit of coughing that made his chair sway to and fro till the chills crept dp and down his spine. "Pass the coffee, Mary," said Lily, with a sigh of relief that the end was in sight. A hectfc flush had risen on Whipple's cheek bones. As he raised the after-dinner cup to his lips, looking fearfully about, aB if wondering if there was anything more that could happen, the cup dropped off the handle. Lily gave a cry and Whipple executed a war-dance as the scalding coffee burned him, Sterling started violently aa he heard the crash. His chair collapsed and he fell in a heap, striking his head against the sideboard with a force that made him see stars. i Mother rushed around to see If he had "hurt his spine," while Lily wiped coffee from the wrathful Whipple's waistcoat. "Why, that must have been ,the cup that I noticed had the handle glued on," said mother innocently, and Whipple glared at her with dark suspicion. That night, while Sterling was wending his way to hia hotel, pondering upon the ' whichness-of the whatness" of some people, and of Whipple in particular, that person was searching his pockets tor greenbacks, which he turned over to Lily with an, air of righteous indignation and . the emphatic remark that if she didn't open an account with the butcher and baker and buy some new table-linen, dishes, and chairs, and whatever she needed, they'd shut up the, whole "shootingmatch" and board. Lily, who was a wise woman, said nothing, but slipped upstairs later and hr.gged her mother. ON THE SIDE Squared Accounts. Among the veteran Jayhawkers" who attended Lhe dinner of the Kansas society in New York was Col. .1. E. Jones, who was a deputy marshal in Judge Pettit's court when Leavenworth was a new town. One day a row started while the judge was holding court. His honor rather snappishly ordered Col. Jones to put a stop to the commotion. The colonel went out to try, but the disturbers had two gun3 apiece and were rude. He went back and told the judge he was afraid he conldn't do anything. '•Very well, sir," said the judge, 'T'll An* you $50 for failing to perform yotir duty." -All right, judge," said-Col. Jones, jovially.

TIMOTHY IS BEST FOR HORSES Clbver and Alfalfa Also Gotjd Feed, But Too Much of Either Must. ! • Not Be:Fad.-- t • Timothy is asually considered the bet^t hay for horses.

However, clover and alfrlia are good feed, even for work horses, it the herscs ere not. fed too much of them. Clover and alfalfa are richer in protein than timothy, hence not so much of the former should be Hiven to a horse at one feed, ('lover and timothy mixed, as it is sometimes Krown in meadows, is an excellent hay feed combining the good qualities of both. It is a n.'.Hake to fill the manger full of hay and allow *he horses to eat all they will at all feeds.

A Roman nose.in a home, HUe taw corresponding aquiline shaptj lu a wan, generally indicates etrong individuality, often ttccpuiinuiled with great intelligence. A straight facial line is quite as often found with a high degree of Intelligence, but a dish-faced borae is rarely anything but a nonetity in character or a fool. I have seen a few exception* to this rule, but they only prove It. ' A fine ruuzisle usually denotes a high nervous organization, while a coarse and large muzzle, with small imd nonexpansive nostrils and pendulous lower lip, means stupidity. A sensitive and trumpet-shaped UOHtril means courage and intelligence, even when, as it does sometimes, it also means heaves. A broad iuid full forehead and length from eye to ear are good general indications of Intelligence, but the eye and ear are the speaking features of a horse's face. The ear is more Intelligible even than the eye, and a person accustomed to the house can tell all thut he thinks or m^ans. When a horse lays his ears flat back on his neck, he most assuredly is meditating mischief, and the bystander should beware of bis heels or teeth. In play the ears will be laid back, but not so decidedly nor so long. A quick change in their position/ and more particularly the expression of the eye- at the time, will distinguish between playfujoess and vice/ All experts agree that the ear of the horse is one of the most beautiful parts al>ourt him, and by this Is the temper more surely indicated than by its ml'ticn.

It fs a matter- of fact that wrier we snip live stock to market they sell together by weight, and as a matter of course the adimal or carcass that weighs the greatest number of pounds will command the most money, aurl I {hirtk the habit of breeding more for quality than for size lies in the fault of the judpes in making 1 heir decisions iu Ihe show rings; as I think they award more prises to the little, fthespun animals, especially swine, ihan they do'the larger type, declares Mr. Hart, in Kimball's Dairyman. If they would reverse Their' decisions It wtmld let us all know where we ave. and we wouold breed more for size than for quality. When we make discrimination in favor of quality against size In selecting our breeding stock, we also discrimina. e against prolificacy, as my experience has been tho finer the quality the less prolific, and the weaker the constitution of the animal. Also a great deal of this defect is brought about by too close in-breeding; so therefore, I contend that if we would select our breeding stock of both sexes of larger type with good, strong, heavy bone, wilh sufficient frame to build on and capable of carrying flesh, our hogs would he of stronger constitution and more prolific. 1 am not opposed to breeding and raising pure hred stock of any kind. I want them with pedigrees, hut I want them large enough and with a strong constitution to back the pedigree up. Therefore, brother breeders, let us breed more for size rather than let our fancies for quality overrule our better judgment, and not raise the little fancy ones that are only fit to look at.

One cold and windy December morning in '64 he was taking a nap in his tent when his old colored servant, 'Uncle Davy,' tiptoed in, and, stumbling in the darkness, knocked down the general's folding cot and spilled him out on the frozen ground. "Gen. Mahone jumped up furiously, seized a scabbard and made for Davy. Davy ran. The general gave chase.

"I wae troubled with a severe Iteming and dry, scrufy skin on my ankles, feet, arms and scalp. Scratching made it worse. Thousands of small red pimples formed and these caused Intense Itching. I was advised to go to the hospital for diseases of the skin. Idid so, the chief surgeon saying: "I never saw such & bad case of eczema." But I got little or no relief. Tfecn I tried many so-called remedies, but I became so bad that I almost gave up In despair. After suffering agonies for twelve months, I was relieved of the almost unbearable itching after two or three applicatioas of Cuttfirra Ointment.

Parents, this Sunday school is for you and your children. You want your child reu to attend come yourself—there is a class for you und you will not only help the school by beiug present but will bb a blessing to others. There was a good attendance, in the evening and the pastor delivered one of his stirring and belptul sermons for which he is noted. Next Sunday morning the sermon will be for the younjj pecple and children but especially tbe young people,, as this is about the time many are graduating and entering the Bchool of life. Do not miss hearing the sermon as all will receive something that will help them. Did it ever strike you that you cau find whatever yon are looking for whether at church or out? If you are looking for Rood you can find it; it for bad you will find it; or for fault you can find that just as well. Now, what is the use of looking for fault when it is just as easy to find tbe good. Prayer meeting tonight. Let's see. How long ago was it that you said you could not live a Christian life without the aid of these mid-week services? What are you doing? Cong'I Church Notes Child'ens day exercises were wit nessed by a large attendance Sunday morning. Tbe church decorations couid not have been improved. The Children entered into the true spirit of the day. The drill by Mrs. Sykes' class was very pleasing, The Pastor and teachers wish to thank everyone that helped in anyway to make the uccassion so pleasant and we trust profitable. The sermon in the evening was exceptionally good. On account of the Baecalarreate address next Sunday evening, there will be no service at this church. Kept His Word. A young fellow in Havana who occupied the position of a reporter tvY. in lovo with a girl, the (laughter of ;• wealthy plainer. He applied to In ;• father in the orthodox w a y for hi: consent to the marriage. 'Tivsuiuiiiuous!" said the father, with eyes Hashing. "You, a poverty Htrieken journalist, ami my daughter! Sir, tret out of my presence!" The journalist was very au«ry. 1 hroun'hr forih a healed declaration o / pride: "Your daughter is too good for me. you say? I will marry a princess before I die." And, with head erect, lie left the irate father. The journalist went to Spain. He wrote poems. The poems were read by the rrineesH Josephine. There w a s a meeting. The t w o fell in love with each other. It is said t h e journalist was s o sincere in his affection that probably lie forgot his declaration to the Havana planter. They were both royally happy, eloped, married in Vnlladolid and were eventually pardoner! by Queen Isabella, the one time jour nalist being received with all the respect due to his new and high rank. When Ladies Wore Masks. In t h e seventeenth century ladies wore masks in public, and great w a - the variety of face screens that: wer•• seen. Ladies who had "coralline" li;n preferred short masks, a s w a s natura'. For others w h o wished to hide 1? lower part of the face the mask \v;i ; completed by a chin piece of linen. which afterward passed under the chin and over the ears. In 11>rS2 a new mask called t h e mlmi, from the Italian mimics, w a s all the rage and threatened t o nsnrp the place of the black one. It was even the cause ui violent quarrel* between the ladies w h o held to the latter and those who preferred t h e latest novelty. Some years later it became the fashion to trim the upper part of the mask wttli a rnrhe of ls.ee, to lengthen it with a beard of the name material nnd even to cover It more or leas with lace -e tbe borders o f t h e •jeholea. Young ladles of tliis period, however, frequently contented themeato^* with COY •ring the face simply w i t h a piece of black crape for eoQo*trw% Mice and to appear the fairer.

Th« Intensely cold nights of Siheri;;. uaya a writer, produce a curious phenomenon. Occasionally t h e silence 1 buokvn by a loud report resembling tinboom of a canuon. The noise la caused by the bursting of an ice bubble on ; river. The atreaina coming from the bills are incased in l e e s i x to nlur Inches thick, and as t h e water descends faster than it escapes throuthe river the result is a heavy hydrostatic pressure. This tirst causes f!c ice upon the river to rise in inoum! often s i x to eight feet high. For :: time they seem t o yield elastically tr. the pressure, but finally can with stand no more and burst with an explosive report. The water rushes our soon freezing, however, and causi]];.; further explosions. The writer asseii - that he has seen scores of these !<•(• hillocks within a f e w miles. Muskrat and Perfumery.

Last season 7,600,000 persons via i tee the exposition. This year it will accommodate 10,000,000. A trip to Chicago would be incomplete without a Visit there.

Five thousand dancers could be lost ia any one of its courts, esplanades, caweewuys or wooded proves.

Wild bulls und daring Toreadors dally enact thrilling contests for life and death. A Spanish band of 100 pieces discourses national music. Many military bands render open air concerts. The industrial exhibit includes wireless telegraphy, flying machines, dirigible balloons, aeroplanes and other mechanical marvels. RIVERVIEW EXPOSITION'S matchless attraction is "The Creation." This stupendous sconle spectacle, animated by Biblical characters of the CI,mien of Eden, is destined to attract world-wide attention. It 1H the product of the penius of E. W.

"There is first a void, (lien darkness. dawn and lipht; separation nf the sky, the earth and the waters; tho beginning of life in the air and the waters, birds and fishes, creeping and crawling things, celestial anthems of unseen spirit bands; the creation of Adam and Eve, their temptation, transgression and expulsion by Ansel Gabriel, who drives them forth with a llamintf sword." A preat $::5,000 pipe origan intones appropriate music. Its deep tubes produce thunder, and Its flute-like notes the mimicry of forest small life. Flashes of lightning and angry storms are made by electrical and water effects. Spaot forbids an adequate description of this magnificent spectacle. Another preat novelty Is "The Racee*" an English panorama. Fifty horses at* tached to chaises raise over the high* way to Coventry.

It wanted to put off more voting lor a month, but it had to meet in two weeks to take up otfcfer mattera and> decided to--make ^another effort to elect a. warden at that time... The board, and especially the new member, Judge Adams, of K&bimaaop qaanliested pronounced "Missoarffcess ' in passing upon the usual stack of mtinttffj'"blfft: ' ' " ' ' • ' Warden* Wenger has- been furnish in|^ paroled prisoners who have nc moriey with funds to buy tickets to their former homes, and asked the board if he was doiag right.

"And that was the smallest thing the stattf of .Michigan ever did," said Mr. Navin. "Suppose the poor devil is taken sick and cannot raise the few dollars that the state has invested for him?" But the matter still is in abeyance. Col. Foote ic Dead. Col. Charles p. Foote. department commander .of the Michigan Grand Army of the Republic, died suddenly Saturday at his home in Kalamazoo. Hia death was most untimely and unexpected, for only Saturday morning he bad stated that he felt much better and was hopeful lor the future, and he talked with eon George, regarding plans for the state encampment of the1 G. A. R. to be held June 22, 23 and' 24. He expected to be able to be up and possibly take at least a small part in this most important occasion. Col. Foote's fatal illness was contracted AprJl 30, whqn be, was. taken with the grip after planting a memorial tree in Bronson park. Col. Foote wan one of the beat known citizens of Kalamazoo and of ihe state. He was especially known for his devotion to thp cause of the G. A. R. and his comrades. He WaS born in Franklin, N. Y.. September G, 1840. In 1861, he enlisted as a member of Company D. Third New York cavalry. He wa.s severely wounded at Washington, N. C. in a sabre combat and was discharged August 11. 18(M. After coming to Michigan. Col. Foote wa.s ejected to the state legislature and served two terms. Charley Ward's Rise. If now look's as though ex-Representative Charles E. Ward would again conic to the front in the political field, and this time in an even larger way than was the old. This is „mado possible through the election of Congressman Lorimer as United States senator from Illinois, as Ward is now private secretary to Lcrimer. Ward, after escaping on a technicality from the investigation into the Prealey case, went to Chicago and entered the employ of Lorimer as a day laborer. From there his rise was rapid, however, and in a comparatively short time he found himself in the responsible position he now holds. Liquor Monty and Taxes. Because the saloon* have left Battle Creek the ways and means committee finds itself shy $11,000 in tax money, and SR Mayor Bailey has thrown cold water on SDproprlations in view of the city's overdraft, it looks as If a rather advanced tax rate must be fixed. The city's overdraft is over $17,000, yet each department of the municipal government asks for a larger budget than usual. Liquor men will u*e the situation as an arrument for 1911, when local option will come up again.

Could any one imagine*any such expression issuing from Mehmed't predecessor? Judge North gave a decision of r.n cause for action in the suit of ex- Mayor Frank W.

What is generally conceded 'to have been the most successful wheat deal in the annals of the Chicago board of trade closed Saturday, and what is symptomatic of modern speculative conditions, it closed without that squeezing of shorts which in other days was wont to furniBh a show to gallery visitors and leave La Salle street ataggering on its financial feet. James A. Patten during the brief hours of the session held May wheat in the hollow of his hand. He made the price as fixed as the laws of the Medes and Persians—$1.34 the bushel. Through his pet clerk, Ed Walker, he bought or sold at that priee, but the buying was. almost purely theoretical on his part. He did take in a few thousand bushels from some "trailer" who waited tfll the last moment for his profits, but gmainly he disposed of about half a million to ihorts who had hoped against hope to the last moment, and then, in the parlance of the pit, "took their medicine."

Blake started to ow4ei book to the ,oht» to recover whet eras' Mtt. BhUce returned aalely. Winthrope wasted hie fast match on a cigarette, for which be was scored by Blake.-Their first meal waa a dead fish. The trio started a ten mlto hike for higher land. Thirst attacked thean. B U N waa compelled to carry Mas £*eile on aceowat of weariness. CHAPTER IV.~Cantlnusd. At first hi* throat waa so dry that be could no mora than rinse his mouth. With the first swallow his swollen tongue mocked b i » wjt^i the salt, bitter taste of sea-water. The tide waa flowing! He rose, sputtering and choking xtnd gasping He • stared around, There was no question that he was on the hank of a river and would be curtain of fresh water with the ebb tide. But could he endure the agony of his thirst all those hours? He thought of his companions. "Good Ood!" he groaned, "they're goner*, anyway!" He stared dully up the river at the thousands of waterfowl which liped its banks. Within close rtew were herons and black ibises, geese, pelicans, flamingoes, and a dozen other species of birds of trhlch he did not know the names. JBut he sat as though In a stupor, and did not move eVen when one of the driftwood logs on a mudshoal a few yards up-stream opened an enormous month and displayed two rows of hooked fangs. It waa otherwise when the noontime stillness was broken by a violent splashing and loud snortlngs down-stream. He glanced about and saw six or eight monstrous heads drifting towards him with the tide. "What in— Whee! a whole herd of hippos!" he muttered. "That's what the holes mean." The Toremost hippopotamus was headed directly for him. He glared at (he huge head with sullen resentment. For a ^ his stupor he perceived at once that the beast intended to land; and he sat. in the middle of Us accustomed path. His first impulse was to spring up and yell at the creature. Then he remembered hearing that a white hunter had recently been killed by these beasts on one of the South African lakes. Instead of leaping up he Bank down almost flat and crawled back around the turn in the path. Once certain that he waa hidden from the beasts he rose to his feet and hastened back through the jungle. He was almost in view of the spot where he had left Winthrope and Miss Leslie, when he stopped and stood hesitating. "i can't do ft," he muttered;. "I cant tell her—poor girl!" He turned and pushed into the thicket. Forcing a way through the tangle of thornyi ahrubs and creepers untn, several yards from the path he began to edge towards the face of the Jungle, that he might peer out at his companions unseen by them. There was more of the thicket before him than he had tbougbX and he was still fl,ght4mj his way1 through it when lie was brought to a stand by a peculiar cry that might have been th& l)Ieat of a youngJaznh: "Ba—ba!" "Whitis that?" he .croaked. . He s\6b<5 Jiateninj* a».id in a moment, iie asain heard the cry, this. Wme more <iistirtctly: "Rlftk!— Rlak!" Thflrecould.be no mistake. It> was Wlnthroye ealllrtp; for -him; and call-' ing with a clearness of. voice that won)*}* have been physically impossible half art thQ>ii* sfnee. and when the ground the first held out one already opened. Ho snatched it from him and placed the hole to hit swollen Hps. Never had champagne tasted half so. oeUcIoueias that cocoanut milk. Before he could drain the last of it through, the little opening Winthrope had the husks torn from the ends of, two other nuUP and the convenient germinal spots gouged open with his penknife. Blake amp tied the third before he sgoksi ^ v e n th«% *>& voice. was hearse and strained. How'd you strike 'em?" "1 couldn't help it." explained Winthrope. "Hardly had you disappeared when I noticed the tops of the fallen palms and thought of the nuts. There was one in the grass not 20 feet from, where we lay." "Lucky for you—and for me, too, I guess," uald Blake. "Wo were all three down for the count. But this settles the first round in our fever. How do you. like the picnic, Mlae Jeany!" "Miss Lealle, If you pleaae," replied the girl, with hauteur. "Oh. say. Miss Jenny !'r protested Slake, genially. "We live in the same boarding house now. Why not be folksy T You're free to call me Tom. Pass mo another nut, Winthrope. Thanks! By the way, what's your front name? Saw It aboard ship— Cyril—~ f'Ceeil," corrected Winthrope. in a low tone. " "Cecil—Lord *Ceefl,- eh?—or is it only the ^onontble Cecil?" "My dear sir, I nave intimated before that, for reasons of-*-er—-state—" w 0b, yes; you're traveling incog,, In the secret service. Sort of detective— " "Detective!" echoed Winthrope, In a peculiar tone. Blake grinned. "Well, it is rawther a nawsty business for your honorable ludihlp. But there's nothing like calling things by their right names." "Right names—er—I don't quite take, you. I have told you distinctly my name is Cecil Winthrope!" "P-h-hJ how lovely!—See-sill! Seeaeal!— Bet they called you Sissy .at school. English chum of mine told mo ..'

Blake^' ho suggested. "1 feel deuces! iagfsst mysaUY Wpj; not ail take e n e * r , . , .,7.. . '* "VAnd when they awoke, taejr were all dead m e n ; " remarked Blake. By Jove,-that sounds like a joke/' protested the Englishman. "Don't rag me new." - "Joke!" repeated Blake. "Why, that's Scripture, Fat, Scripture! anyway, you'd think it no Joke to wake up and find yourself going down the throat of a hippo.'* "Hippo?" MDosena of them over la the river. Shouldn't wonder if they've all landed and're tracking « « ' down by this time." "But hippopotami are not camlwsr ous—they're not at all dangerous, uu less eae wounds them, out in the water." "That may be; but I'm not taking chances*. They've get mouths like spersn whales—I saw one take a yawn. Another thing, that bayou is chuck full of alligators, and a fellow down on the Read told mo they're like tin* Central American gavleis far keeuaeas to nip a swimmer." -They will not come out on this dry land." "Suppose they won't—tnere're no ether animals in Africa but sheep, eh?M "What can wo do? The captain told me that there are both lions and leopards on this oeast." "Nice place for them, too, around these trees," added Blake. "Lueky for us, they're night-birds mostly— if that Band follow didn't lie. He was a Boer, so I guess he ought to know." "To be sure. It's a nasty fla we're in for to-night. Could we not build some kind of a barricade?" "With a penknife! Guess we'll roost in a tree." "But cannot leopards climb? It seems to me that I have heard—" "How about lions?" "Tbey cannot; I'm sure of that." "Then we'll chance the leopards- Just stretch out here aad nurse that ankle of yours. I don't want to be lugging you all year. I'm going to hunt a likely bee." CHAPTER V. The Re-Ascent of Man. Blake Pushed Out from Among the Close Thickets. *ye* lighted with hope. . He - burst through the last scrqon of jungle and stared towards the palm under which he had left his companions. They were not there. J Another call from Winthrope dltected his gaxo more seaward. The two were seated beelde a fallen pal a , i t your school8 are corkers for nicknames. What'll wo make it—Sis or Sissy?" "I prefer my patronymic, Mr. Blake," replied Winthrope. "All right, then; we'll make it Pat, if that's your choice. I say, Pat, this juice is the stuff for wetness, but it makes a fellow remember his grub. Where'd you leave that fish?" "Really, I can't just say, but.it must have been where I wrenched my ankle." "You cawn't juBt say! And what are we going to eat?" "Here are the eoeoanuts." ""Bright boy! go to the head of the class! Just take some mere husk off those empty ones." Winthrope caught up one of the nuts, and with the aid of his knife stripped it of its husk. At a gesture from Blake he laid it on the bare >ground and tho American -burst it open with a blow of his toe*!-. It waa cm immature nut, and tho mea* proved "to be little thicker than clotted cream. EMake divided it into three parts, handirffc Miss Leslie the cleaneat. * ' Though his companions began with more restraint, they .finished their FUake's Sunken |,shares with equal gusto. Winthrope needed no further orders to return to his husking. .One after another the nuts were cracked and divided among the three, until even Blake could not swallow another mouthful of the luscious cmon* Toward t h e end Miss LaeJle had become drowsy. At Wlnthrope's urg- FTBRNOON was far ad vanced and Winthrope was beginning to feel anxious when' at last Blake pushed out from among the close thickets. As he approached he swung an unshapely club of green wood, pausing every few paces to test its weight and balance on a bush or knob of dirt. "By Jove!" called Winthrope; "that's not half bad! You look as if you could bowl over an ox." Blake showed that he was flattered. "Oh, I don't know," he responded; "the thing's blamed unhandy Just the same, I guess we'll be ready tuj caries to-night." "How's that?" "Show you later, Pat, me b'y. Now trot out some nuts. We'll feed before we move camp." "Miss Leslie is still sleeping." "Time, then, to roust her out. Hey, Mias Jenny, turn out! Time to chew." Miss Leslie sat up and gazed around in bewilderment. "It's all right, Miss Genevieve," reassured Winthrope. "Blake has found a safe place for the night, and he wishes us to eat before we leave here." "Save lugging the grub," added Blake. "Get busy, Pat." As Winthrope caught up a nut the girl began to arrange her disordered hair and dress with the deft and graceful movements of a woman thoroughly trained in the art of self-adornment. There waa admiration in Blake's deep eyes as he watched her dainty preening. She was not a beautiful girl—at present she could hardly be termed pretty; yet even in her draggled, muddy dress she retained all the subtle charms of culture which appeal so Wrongly to a man. Blake waa subdued. His feelings even carried him so far as an attempt at formal politeness when they had finished their meal. "Now, Miss Leslie,"' he began, "it's littlo nipre than half an hour to sundown; ao. If you please, if you're ready, svo'db^at. be starting." "I» it far?" "Not ao very. l^it w;Vve got tn chase through the jungle. Are you Sure you're quit*? ready0" "Quite, thank you. Hut. how about Mr. Winthropo's ankleT' "He'll ride as far aa the trees. I can't squeeze through with ' him, though." "I shall walk all the way," put in Winthrope. "No, you won't. Climb aboard," replied Blake, and catching up bis club he stooped for Winthrope to mount his back. As lie rose with his burden Hiss Lealle caught sight of Ida coat, wntan-stm lay iar a roll beside the p a l m ^ n l h , * « . » . , , * . . she aea^.v rsidusj. yeW aat (put it onT" '* * * • • *' ' ' : 'N*fCrtf>)aade* zsnjsf |Have to ask you fai^oet; after i t ?

Nothing more was said until they had crossed tbe-'dpen apace between the palms and the belt of jungle atoai; the river. At other times Winthrope sad Miss Leslie might have been interested in the towering screwpalms; festooned to tho top with clbBbers, and In the huge ferns which they could see beneath tho mangroves In the swasapy ground on their left Now. hoWjever, they were far too eoncensed with the questloa of hew tbey should penetrate tho dense tangle of thorny brush aad creepers whijeh rose befose them like a fseen wall. Bvea Blake b**Uated as he released Wlafthreve and looked at Ml** Leslie's qestumo. Her white skirt was* of stout duck; but the flimsy material of her wwaist was ill-suited ror rough usage. - ' v '•'-•••'• "Better put tho coat on unless you want to cohto out on the other side in full evening dress/' he said. "There's ao use kicking, but.I wish you'd happened to have on some sort of a Jacket when wo got spilled." "Ie there s o path through the thicket?" iasjatced Wiathrope. "Only the hippo trail, aad it doe t go our way. We've got to run oar own Has. Here's a stlok for your game ankle." Wiathrope took the batf-groon breach which Blake broke from the nearest tree aad turned to assist Mies Leslie with the coat. The saroeat was of snob coarse cloth that as Wiathrope drew tho cellar close about her threat Miss Leslie could not forego a tittle grimace of repugnance. The crease between Blake's s y e e deepened, and tho gfri hastened to utter aa explanatory exclamation: "Not so tight, Mr. Winthrope, please! It Scratches my neck." (TO B E C O N T I N U E D . ) T H E BABY HATES L I G H T . Is Bern Without Protection from D*xxling Brightness. Another thing which we must learn to appreciate and respect in the baby* Is his attitude toward light. This la widely different from ours. Light Is one of the most stimulating aad attractive things in the world to us; and the brighter, the better. Witness the glit< ter of the gin palace and the blase of Coney island. But to a poor, blink' ing to* of a. baby it is as dazeling and irritating as it is grateful to us. His chief objection to the new world in which he finds himself, if he could put it in words, would be: "It's so beastly light." He is born a caveman In more senses than one. While the rooms whteh be occupies should get plenty of sunshine, this should never be allowed to shine directly into his eyes or full upon his face. He has neither pigment in his tender skin nor hair on the top of his pink little head to protect him against the light rays; and it is little short of "cruelly to animals" to lay an unfortunate baby on his back in a trough-like perambulator, or baby buggy, so deep and well padded that he cannot even squirm; to load him down with clothing and wraps, or even actually strap him down so that he can lift neither hand nor foot; and then to wheel him about for hours with his little face turned up to the full glare of the light and even the direct rays of the sun.

Gamier pretty nor diatingniaoed lopkiog. Indeed, she was a vary ordinary girl of twenty, though It most be confessed a very good one. On the last night that the company performed at* Geneva Mile. Gamier was surprised at receiving a card on which was engraved the name "Gaspar. Pearson." There was also written in pencil, "I shall esteem it a favor If Mile. Gamier will permit me to Oiauk her in person for tho pleasure she has given me/* Not only was mademoiselle, bat the rest of the company, astonished. None of the principal actresses had received inch a compliment Mile. Gamier at once became an important personage in their eyes. Caspar Pearson was admitted behind the scenes. He appear* ed to be a young man of respectability. He was deferential to the lady,' to whom he had taken a fancy, and after the play his father, 'who was in the theater, sent mademoiselle an invitation to sup at the family home; The father, the mother and the sou united in praising the young actress' bearing on the stage, the well modulated tone In which she had spoken the few lines assigned her and agreed that she should have a better part,_ predicting a final trhwnph for her in her art. Pearson per* offered to give her an introduction to his brother in Paris, who, he said, had great Influ ence with the press and theatrical managers. When she left the house -for her hotel young Pearson accompanied her in the family carriage. He asiced permission to call in the morning and see her to the train. The nest morning when Casper Pearson drove op to the hotel the eyes of every member of the company were leveled at him. He brought a large bouquet of flowers, which he begged mademoiselle to accept, informing her at the same time that his father had telegraphed to fUncie Gaston," in Paris, who would meet her at the station, take her home to dinner and consult as to a plan for her advancement in her profession. When they reached Parts a gentleman advanced and asked which was Mile. Gamier, and when she was pointed out to him took her to his carriage, and they were driven to his home. During the ride he talked much about the family estate in Geneva. "And those flowers," he said. "I would know at once they came from the gardens of onr old homestead. Do you know, I laid out those gardens myself years ago." "Please accept them," said mademoiselle, <4slnce they are so precious to you." Uncle Gaston formed many plans for Mile. Garnier's pursuit of her i. Jfesslon. None of them ever seemed to come to a head, but the attention she had received bore fruit. The manager of the company advanced her rapidly, and It was not long before she had every opportunity. Her talents as an actress were mediocre, bat she found a part that she could play admirably, and this gained her great success. Soon after her experience in Geneva young Caspar Pearson went to Parte and called upon her. She was very grateful to him for having been the motive power in- starting her upward in her profession, and after a time he began to show a grent partiality for her. Uncle Gaston heard of his nephew's attentions and wrote his brother of them. The consequence was a visit to Tarls of the youngster's father and a violent scene between father and son in presence of the actress, the father threatening to disinherit the son unless he gave up his love. The son then threatened to denounce his father and his uncle for some offense he did not state, and consent was finally reluctantly given. Mile. Gamier, now Mme. Pearson, continued to act under her former name. It was not till some time after her marriage that she reaped the full benefit of the start she had received and which she considered entirely due to the admiration her husband had conceived for her at first sight But whenever she would give demonstrative evidence of her gratitude her husband would turn away with displeasure and beg her not to mention the subject again. One day she asked him: "Caspar, what did you mean by threatening to denounce your father and uncle when they opposed oar marriage r Tearson thought awhile, then said: "I have a confession to make.

"I want to tell you that we caMot go on as we have been," she sal?. "I suppose," she went on In the sstne soft tone, "you think that you love me. No. don't speak yet. I know what you would say: you want to swear that you worship, adore me, that I am the one woman in the world to you, but I have come to feel 'that mere words do not count for much. It Is acts that tell the story. Had you really loved me you would never have told me so." i Arkwright set his teeth hard. Was she going to reproach him #er having persuaded her to marry hknr Well, he ,,deserved it, he supposed. • :\ "Why did you do it?'*tshe questioned with more passion, more anger, in her vplce than he ^faed supposed her ca- *paeaV<©**feeliDg%' "Why did you force yourself into my existence? I was nappy enough as I was, as happy as a Wftneah can be who has never loved." : Arkwright winced. "But there, I must not be unkind to you." Her voice had grown indescribably tender. "After all, you are not more to blame than i; indeed, Hot so much, and I know you are sincere in thinking that you love me. I thought I loved you too—once. But now I know that it was not you I loved. In accepting your attentions I was only yielding to the desire every woman has to be made much of, to have thought, devotion, showered upon her. What I mistook for love was. merely being glad that you, someone, anyone, cared for me. It was comparing you with him that made me realize this. Had he been in your place he would never have told me that he loved me; he would have gone away and suffered in silence." Arkwright stirred impatiently in his seat, Why could she not have spared him a little? It was bitter enough to be reproached with his own shortcomings without having to hear her lover's praises sung. Besides, would Oliver have done these things? Arkwright thought not. His wife leaned forward and laid a hand on his arm. "You don't know . , • ' • . ' ..^-w^fwwrgji1...11 how I na^e to have to say all ?hla»* she whispered. Arkwright shpok her hand rroiu his arm. "Of course, you are angry with ine, but Isn't it better for me to tell the truth? 1 do not love you; flo^e him.* The w,ay she fl^ldj the;»i*8t three words made v Arkwright d}«y with pain.

"V *._", Arkwright did not speak; iode*4'»,jtri could not. for something came info las throat and choked him. His wife went on talking. Would she never stop, he wondered. How much more was there for him to hear? "I know It is a good deal to ask, but I should like Xp feel that you forgive me for telling you these unpleasant truths and for sending you away. Jt may be hard for you to go, but, be; lieve me, you. will find it harder to stay. I am sure of this because—if you loved me as—as I love him, you could never, have borne it to be so much to me. and yet so little. I think I felt this in a vague way from the firsts That is why even whan I thought I loved you I would not tell you so." , Arkwright drew a sigh of relief. He was glad she was telling all this to him and not to Carlton. It meant much to nim to be able to believe in her again. His wife rose to her feet. "Come," she said in a voice she strove to make matter-of-fact, "we must not stay here any longer. He will be wondering where we are." Arkwright rose too, and together they moved through the darkness towards a curtained doorway. Just before it Edith paused and he felt her hand upon his arm again. "I am sorry, Oliver, I am indeed," she whispered. Oliver! Arkwright felt a sudden diziiness. Oliver! She had thought he was Oliver Carlton all this time. Why—then she must have been talk- .Ing about him—her husband. She must love him! After a moment, when his mad exultation had given way to a great peace, Arkwright took his wife's hand, and, lifting the curtain, drew hex into the lighted room beyond. Souths sawdust Is Utilized.

This is followed with a smaller machine which ploSvs up arirt mixes' the earth vtith the'sawdust. This makes a roadbed on which the tires of the heaviest loaded vehicles make no Impression. The contractor, G. H.

Ifsfrtry be-miggeete* that sawdust is apt a durable material, but the True'^teniocrat meets this objection with the statement that one or two such roads were constructed in a south Georgia county 20 years ago and are still" in good condition, Bhowlng its durability.

The duat colore and sweet-gum browns are ^he, moat serviceable colors for the petticoat. Of course every woman knows that silk sheds the dust more readily than cotton. Petticoats which wash and .yet always look new, may be made of gingham or calico, and if the gown and coat colors are considered when the petticoat color is selected, the effect when the. skirt is lifted is always good. The coat needs of the pretty maid of ten summers or so are considered in our illustration. ThiB neat little coat is one of the trimmest and most sensible of the season's designs for girls, and while of service at ajay time, it would be invaluable for traveling. Blue serge, trimmed with silk or wool braid, is a good choice of materials,) and If the braid hia a £ouch of red in the weave it will be still smarter.

Indeed. much sickness comes from wrong food and just so.surely as that is the case ; right food will make the sun shine once more. . . An old veteran of Newburyport, ; Mass., says:, "In October, I was taken sick and went to bedt losing 47 pounds ; in about 60 days. I had doctor after ! i doctor, food hurt me and I had to live I almost entirely on magnesia and soda, i j All solid food distressed me so that ] water would run out of my mouth in little streams. "I had.terrible night sweate, and my doctor finally said ^J^ad consumption and must die. My good wife gave up all hope. We were at Old Orchard. \ Me., at that time and my wife saw !

The popular tendency to fasten all women's garments in front has caused a general atmosphere of comfort that is hard to overestimate. Blouses began to fasten in front, last winter apd sensible women at onre took advantage of the fashion. Petticoats of all kinds were made to hook or clamp down the left front so there might not be placket or plaits at back. Linen and pongee outer skirts all fasten down the left middle front with large buttons and combination underwear, which is taking the place of all others to-day, buttons down the front. With this convenient fastening of nil garments it is only natural that women should go in strongly for the corset that laces in front. It not only giveR excellent shape to the back and permitB the frock to fit without wrinkle, but it allows a woman to get into it with ease and freedom. It has always been a tiresome feat to hold the arms back of the body lu order to lace the corsets with nicety; no fatigue is caused by the modern method. It is a matter of congratulation that women have adopted all the sen sible garments that fasten ifi front. It lifts much of the burden of dressing.

President Gomez advocates liberalising the laws of Venezuela and encouraging the free entry of foreigners, particularly those who will be likely to aid in the development of that section. Perhaps this will give Castro a chance. He may become naturalised abroad and then get Into Venezuela as a foreigner. I Contrary to expectations the prison board of control did not take up the matter of the apaintment of a warden Tuesday evening, . The special meeting was called to consider, matters reltting to the binder twine business. Not a word was spoken regarding the warden8hip until adjournment, when Mr. Nnvin laid rome letters'on the table and remarked that they would be considered when the wardenship appointment was taken up. When this will he is problematical. The next meeting of the board will be held on June 4. The so-called trust is bucking the prison twine minuXactored in this and other states. The Michigan prison plant has established a. price of $7.50 per 10u pounds for cash and $7.25 for payment after harvest in October, and the steal of which twine .is manufactured six cents a pound and upwards. The state pays the Gleaners 25 cents a hundred pounds fo> selling the twine, EO the margin of profit la, small enough. But tome twine is offered in the market at a price which enables dealers to sell it at seven cents— hence the problem. Previous to the past week orders have been coming in slowly, and It looked as though the state might have a lot of twine on hand at the end of the year, as the capacity of the plant is between two and a half and three million pounds. But recently reorders from the Gleaner arbors, who are acting as selling agents for the prison product, have come in more rapidly, and the twine Is being shipped. In the last 10 days orders amounting to 300.000 pounds have been received. The prison has about 1,000,000 pounds of sisal on hand, and this year it is buying at better prices. It paid 415-18 cents per pound for part of this and five cents for the.rest. Gov. Warner expressed the belief that the situation Is favorable for the prison twine plant. Sisal has Increased In price a cent a pound during the past week and he believed the quality of the prison twine—which he alleged is a lot better than the eut-rate twine —will sell it, In spite of everything. Gov. Warner has a plan of making some members of every school board in the state a twine agent. Nevada may come into renewedprominence as a producer of precious metals. During March two mining camps in that state turned out 12.000,- 000 worth of gold, and quite a rush of prospectors is started for that locality. The fresh discoveries of gold may also have the effect of further weaning away the Nevadsns from their excessive devotion to silver. Duflflan'a Evil Spirit. "I wish I had killed him; I wouldn't have gotten any more." Thle remark, made by James Duggan on his way back to jail after being sentenced to life imprisonment for assault on Representative W. H. Schants at Lansing, would indicate that there was some motive which has not been disclosed for Duggan's peculiar assault, though Duggan on the trial insisted to the contrary, saying that he did not know why he attacked Schantx. The case was given to the Jury after the dinner hour Saturday, and after fifteen minutes' deliberation the Jury came in with a verdict of guilty of assault with Intent to murder. Judge Wlest immediately called Duggan to the bar and sentenced him to imprisonment for life at Marquette. Duggan asked to be sent to Jackson, but the judge told him he thought Marquette was a better place for him. The most peculiar phase of the present hat situation is that the majority of women who.wear the unsightly things cordially detest them, but ple.id that there are no others, for sale, and that to wear last year's hat la to be almost aa freakish as to wear this year's. Right here is a chance for women to demonstrate their ability to take a part in the government—let them regulate the' styles instead of being regulated by them. The best that can he said about the American passion for ancestors is that it provides a living for a number of professional genealogists, and that it is, In itself, comparatively harmless. Every one 1B perhaps entitted to some little form of vanity and self-indulgence. Ancestors coat no more than poker, and the search for them unites families In a common' interest where such vanities as drinking and gambling tend to separate them. Planntd Disappearance. No further investigation will be made by the Detroit police In the case of Frank 8. Curtis, the mechanical engineer, who disappeared from the Wayne hotel April 27 last. Capt. Mc- Donnell has received a letter from New York from a man closely connected with the Curtis family, and this man says that Curtis' family Is convinced that he is alive and well, that he diappeared of his own volition, and that the the disappearance was probably planned hy Mm before he left New York on his trip west. "I was convinced right along that Curtis was alive and well," declared Capt. McDonnell. "The fact that he wrote so many letters before dropping ouL of sight aroused my suspicions, and the more we Investigated" the more convinced I became that there was something beWnd the whole matter and that Curtis h2d planned his disappearance." Examination of the premises occupied hy a Los Angeles private bank, lately cloged for lack of funds, showed that the supposed vault was a big door without any opening behind it.

Struck down in her home on the Wedding morning of her grandson by a blow which fractured her «kuil, Mrs. Christine Coryeon, aged 70, a wealthy,, Bay City widow, died a few hours later at Mercy-hospital. !• After Mrs. Coryeon was removed tor the hospital, It was decided to go on with the we&dta&uage neither .of the, principals, Roland Rich and Miss Annie. Kaiser, knew how seriously injured the aged woman waa. The wed* ding, which was largely attended, as both parties are well known and their families well-to-do, took place at St. Boniface Roman Catholic church an hour and a half after the finding of Mrs. Coryeon on the floor of her home. AfterV the ceremony, Rich, who ia 23 years old, was asked hy the poiaee and the prosecuting attorney tQasjtteod the confab' at the chiefs office. The bride- has aot y « been WW of MrsT Cory eon's death. The couple were to have left town on a wedding trip, but it is now doubtful if the police will let the brldgegroom go for a.time, at least. .The deepest mystery surrounds the aged woman's death. The grandson, found her, he says, lying on the floor of her bedroom. He declares the first he knew that anything was wrong was" while he was in the kitchen, He heard a noise aa of a falling body and rushed to his grandmother*! room, where he says he discovered the bedding was on fire. Rich says he dragged the aged woman' partly*Ib^nTOer room" a W K e W | rushed out of the house to give the"j alarm. He found Mrs. Coryeon'sJ daughter, Mrs. Harry Tierney, at the/ door and the hurried to her mother^ uaeonscloue. Rich asserts he did not know his grandmother was hurt until after Mrs. Tlerney's arrival, when the' wound in - the head was discovered. Rich gave the impression that he sup-' posed his grandmother had fallen in a faint elttfefftshoch ever .finding her bedon fire, or elwe that she ha4*eld something lighted in her BAAS* when she, fell. • " ' - • '; The police are suspicious that who* ever struck the aged woman her death,i blow started to set the bed on fire in an effort to destroy the body and hlde< the crime. Rich explains his presence at his. grandmother's house by the statement that he had been tormented by prac* Uoal; Jofcers "joshing" him about his. coming wedding, for the last few days, that he had come to Mrs. Coryeofi'e house that he might escape them. He had brought his wedding clothing with him, expecting to give his aanoyers the slip., A singular feature of the affair if that the wedding suit, which jrouag Rich sayB he brought to his grandmother's t home, is missing, with the $100 he says he had in the pocket for wedding expenses. Rich was Mrs. Coryon's favorite grandson, and she had just given him a house and lot for a wedding present. Rich says he did not see anyone in the house before the sound of Mrs. Codyeon's fall brought him to her room. The Woman in White. A Colombian Joan of Arc has appeared.

How do yo^expect to walk.in those things?" "1 can at least try," replied the girl, Wjth spirit. ^Hobble! Pass 'em over here, Winnie, my boy." The slippers were handed over.

Before they had gone a mile Mite Leslie would have lost her slippers had H Stopped, Utterly Spent. not been for Blake's forethought in tying them so securely. Within a Tittle more than three miles' the girl's strength began to fail. "Oh, Blake*" called Winthrope, for the American was some yards in the lead, "pull up a bit on that knolL We'll have to rest a while, I fancy. Miss Leslie is about pegged." ~ "What's that?" demanded Blake. "We're not half-way yet!'* Winthrope did not reply. It was all he could do to drag the girl up on the hummock. She sank, half-fainting, upon the dry reeds, and he sat down beside her to protect her with the shade. Blake stared at the miles of swampy flats which yet lay between them and the out-jutting headland of gray rock. The base of the cliff was screened by a belt of trees; but the nearest clump of green did not look more than a mile nearer than the headland. "Hell!" muttered Blake, despondently. "Not eyen ^a abort four miles. Mush and sassiety "girls!" Though, he spoke to himself the others heard him. Miss Leslie flushed and would have risen had not Winthrope put his hand on her arm. "Could you not go on and bring back a flask of water for Miss Leslie?" he asked. "By that time she will be rested." "No; I don't fetch back any flasks of water. She's going when I go, or you can come on to suit yourselves." "Mr. Blake, you—you won't go and leave me here!

Tot even at that moment, such are'the inconsistencies of human nature, she co«M not hut admire the ease" with which he rose under her weight. Nowthat he no Jdnger had the slow pace of the girl to consider, he aj> vanced at his natural gait, the quick, tireless stride of an American railroad surveyor. His feet, trained to swamp travel in Louisiana and . Panama, seamed to find the. firmest ground as by instinct, and whether on the halfdried mud of the hummocks or in the4 ankle-deep water of the bogs, they .felt their way without slip or stumble. Winthrope, though burdened only with the Tialf-eaten coryphener tolled along behind, greatly troubled by the mud.and the tangled reeds,!'and now and then flung down by some unlucky misstep. . His modish suit, already pouch damaged by the salt water, was BOOU, smeared afresh with a coating of greenish slime. His one consolation tumble, paid no more attention to hifn. On the other bend, he was cut by the'seeming Indifforence of Miss Leslie. Intent on his own misery, he failed to consider that tne girl might be snffertng' far greater discomfort dhd humiliation. More^ than tb,ree miles had been^coveredj befpre ^lake stopped on a,humrujock. Releaiing Miss Leslie, he stretched out on tha dry crest of the knoll and called for a slice of the fish. At bis urging the others took a few mouthfuls, although their throats were So" parched that even the moist flesh afforded scant relief. Fortunately for them all, Blake had been thoroughly trained to endure thirst. He rested less than ten minutes; then taking Miss Leslie up aga,ln like a rag doll, he swung away at a good pace. The trees were le3s than half a mile distant when he halted for the second time. He would have gone to them without a pause, though his muscles were quivering with exhaustion, bad not Miss Leslie chanced to look arc-trad and discover that Winthrope was no longer following them. For the last mile he had been lagging farther and farther behind, and now he had suddenly disappeared. At the girl's dismayed exclamation, Blake released his hold and she found herself standing in a foot or more of mud and water. The sweat was streaming down Blake's face. As* he turned around, he wiped it off wjth his .shirtsleeves. . „„,. "Do you—can it be, Mr. Blake,, that he has bad a sunstroke?" asked Miss Leslie. "Sunstroke? No; he a just laid down, that's all. I thought he had more sand—confound him!" "But the sun is so dreadfully hot, and I have his shade." "And he'3 been tumbling into every other pool. No; it's not ^he sun. I've half a mind to let him. lie—the paperlegged swell! It would no more than square our aboard-ship accounts." "8nrely, you would not do that, Mr. Blake! It may be that he has hurt himself in falling." "In this tnud?—bah! Bui I guess I'm in for the pack-mule stunt all around. Now, now; don't yowl, Miss Jenny. I'm going. But you can*t expect me to love the snob." As he splashed away on the return trail. Miss Leslie dabbed at her eyes to check the starting tears. "Oh, dear*—Oh, dear!" she moaned; "What have I done to be so treated? Such a brute. Oh, dear!—and I am so thirsty!" In her despair sho would have sunk down where she stood had not the sliminess of the water repelled her. She gated longingly at the trees, in the fore of which stood a grove of stately palms. The half-mile seemed an Insuperable distance, but the ride on Blake's back, had rested her and thirst goaded her forward.

Itortuna'tely the remaining distance' lay across a stretch of bare, dry ground,' for even Blake bad all but reached the limit of endurance. Step by step he labored on, staggering under the weight of the Englishman and gasping with a thirst which his exertions rendered even greater than that of his companions. But through the trees and brush which stretched away inland in a wall of verdure he had caught glimpses of a broad stream and the hope of fresh water called out every ounce of his reserve strength.

"Does it coat anything extra?" "Yes, it will be two dollars if you take gas and one dollar if you don't." 'How long does At take to pull it that way?" "It won't seem any time at all to you. You go to sleep and you seem to wake up Immediately and the tooth is out." "And I don't feel It come out?" "Not a particle." Uncle Hod reflected. "Well," he said, "I've come 27 miles to have this tooth pulled and 1 think I'm entitled to the satisfaction of knowing when you yank it out—to say nothin' of savin' a dollar. I don't want no gas."

OVER THE FENCE Neighbor Says Something. The front yard fence is a famous council place on pleasant days. Maybe to chat with some one along the street, or for friendly gossip with next door neighbor. Sometimes it is only small talk but other times neighbor has something really good to offer. An old resident of Baird, Texas, got some mighty good advice this way once. He says: "Drinking coffee left me nearly dead with dyspepsia, kidney disease and bowel trouble, with constant pains in my stomach, back and side, and so weak I could scarcely walk. "One day I was chatting with one of my neighbors about my trouble %nd told her I believed coffee hurt me. Neighbor said she knew lots of people to whom coffee was poison and she pleaded with me to quit it and give Postum a trial. I did not take her advice right away but tried a change of climate, which did not do. me., any good. Then I dropped coffee and took up Postum. "My improvement began immediately and I got better every day I used Postum. "My bowels became regular In two weeks, all my pains were gone. Now I am well and strong and can eat anything I want to without distress. All of this is due to my having quit coffee, and to the use of Postum regularly. "My son who was troubled with indigestion thought that if Postum helped me so, it might help him. It did, too, and he is now well and strong again. "We like Postum as well as we ever liked tha coffee aad uea it altogether in say family is place of coffee and all keep well.** There's a Reasoa."

J;-—Edward Calhourn, a farmer, who never imbibes, and who prides himself upon his veracity, is the authority for the statement that a headless figure walks the Creek woods, about two miles from here. For the third time he met it. As he was driving along the Bridgeboro road a form stepped out to the middle of the highway; Calhourn at first thought it was a highwayman and fired his but the "ghost" remained at the animal's head, lashed his horse for ten minutes, but the animal refused to budge, and, as Calhourn jumped from his carriage, determined to solve the mystery, the "thing" vanished. Comparing notes, Calhourn found that at least two other men had been confronted by the same object in the same vicinity while out late at night, and two agreeing with hia description of it—that it wears a long, gray cloak and is headless. Residents of the vicinity also teli of hearing strange cries, resembling the cries of a child. The singular visitation has revived the story of an eccentric old man who lived alone in a hut along the creek some 30 years ago and who waa found murdered, his head having been aevever, presumably the victim of burglars.

Keenly he saw the wonderful force of the reality before him. His sensitive receptiveness was permeated with fire for the swing of the pose, the frenzied abandon of the forceful open curves, the brooding desperation in the face. A long free swing of the full brush— the length of the canvas—followed the action of the thing with sympathy and power. The madness of the girl was calmed by the unfeigned admiration of the man. Fascinated by the magnetism of his perforating spell-bound gase she posed OD and on. On and on he painted, forgetting girl and situation; painted as he never before had painted. The high-strung temperament that had brought only dreams and half convincing artistic things waa now lashed into action and fierce endeavor, and for the first time he strained his entire capacity and produced, all unconscious that he was really succeeding. Long and unknowing they worked together, cramped muscles and feverish weariness uncomplaining. Suddenly the pose relaxed and drooped, and the girl sank to the floor, energy and madness alike utterly spent, sapped in the long exhausting labor. Vandenbieer put away the knife, now forgotten; carried her to the couch and stretched her out in flat relaxing ease; let down in greater comfort the hair he used to love for its copper glints.and old-gold polished streaker felt how thin her wrists were, and chafed thHr coolness. .. She stirred in response and he stepped back to his work. He saw it afresh, with new, surprised eyes—and knew it to be great. The brief, comprehensive saying of the thing in terms at once decorative and ingenuous startled him with its completeness and purity. The dignity of outraged misery there •"ppealed to him now as* a sudden revealing'of a soel he had long misunderstood. A confusion of shame for his own part, of neglect and selfishness crept over him, and, with the realization of the source of his Inspiration, a gratitude to Honoria that had a warmth akin to his old love. With a sudden impulse self-approbation urged In his rising mood, he bent over the silent, motionless figure and put his arms about her. '^Honoria. wake np; Honoria, dear girl! I am made, and you have made me!" "Share, and share? aiik?". h\V hastened to *reassure her copfiWd surprise, "even to the 'Vandenbieer.'" •'Van, you really thought, dear, I meant to kill you?" she smiled. Athleticism Extraordinary.

An old lacly who was In the habit of declaring uffor the occurrence of nn unusual event that she had predicted It was one day very nicely sold by her worthy spouse, who, Ilk* many others we have heard of, had got tired of her eternal "I told you so!" Rushing Into the house breathless and with excitement, he dropped Into his chair, ' elevated Iris hands and exclaimed: ' "Oh, wife, wife, what—what—do you think? The old brindle cow has gone i and eaten up our grindstone!*' The old lady was ready, and, hardly waiting to hear the last word, she broke out at the top of her lungs: "I told you so, you old fool! I told you so! You always would let It stand out o* doors."—Philadelphia Ledger. C. L. Sigler and Carl Sykes were in Detroit the first of tbe week, making the trip in Mr. Siglers auto.

This stupendous scenic spectacle, animated by Biblical characters of the Garden of Eden, is destined to a t t r a c t world-wide attention. It is the product of t h e genius of E. W. McDonnell, builder of several world's fairs, and his staff of a hundred artists. The scene is t h e Valley of the Euphrates, where tradition locates Eden. Awed spectators view as near to its reproduction as man m a y conceive. The Kreat religious drama closely follows the Scripture. "There is first a void, then darkness, dawn and light; separation of the sky, the earth and the w a t e r s ; the beginning of life in the air and the waters, birds and Ashes, creeping and crawling things, celestial anthems of unseen spirit bands; the creation of Adam and Kve, their temptation, transgression and expulsion by Angel Gabriel, who drives them forth with a flaming sword." A great $25,000 pipe organ intones a p - propriate music, I t s deep tubes produce thunder, and Its llute-like notes t h s mimicry of forest small life. Flashes of lightning and angry storms a r s mads by electrical and wnter effects. Space forbids an adequate description of this magnificent spectacle. Another great novelty is "The Races," an English panorama. Fifty horses a t - tached to chaises raise over t h e highway to Coventry. A great many of the schools in this vicinity close this week.

" The old saying "that don't cut anyj. cheese" will not apply to the factory here as this week the Michigan Creamery Co. have sold cheese to the merchants who hive them cut and arei. finding ready sale tor it is a splendid quality ot full cream cheeBe. The factory has been running now only a little over two weeks and are making from 20 to 26 eheesa per day and oyer 1,200 pounds of butter per week and increasing every day, Tuesa n c j I day making 26 cheese and over 500 daughter Madeline, spent Sunday at Mr. Mallions.

Last Wednesday evening at the residence of the brides sister, Mrs. Jas. Bell, occured the marriage of Mr. Homer Reason and Miss Lydia Miles Rev. Gates officiating. They have the best wishes of their friends. At Ionia three laboring men had put away a liberal supply of beverage previous to local option going into effect. Recently their wives conceived the idea that they were masters of the household and emptied the goods into the sewer. No more commissary departments in their homes, they say.— Democrat, If there were more wives like those it would be a good thins? in every community. But what about the man who has no wife? pounds of butter. This is not bad for a starter. There are many more who will sell milk and cream but it is bard to find haulers and at present everyone is too busy. Mr. Day is bound to have it however and takes the livery himself and covers some territory that is hard to get otherv\ ise at present. Anyone who wants a steady job of^lauling will do well to see Mr. Day at once. The whole bunch at the creamery are hustlers, understand their business from A to Z and we expect the creamery to become one of the big industries of the county in the future. M. £. Church Notes.

"Uncle Billy" Gray, 99 years old, a ,resident of Dearborn, decided,.Saturday that to*re ,wa* nothing, *nore to "•live for, so secured a tin dipper, one, .quart capacity, poured in a large amount of parts green, and going to the well, nearly filled it with w»ter. He then drank the mixture and calmly lay down to die. Mrs. Gray, w*ho is about 80, discovered her husband and called a doctor. , The latter applied emetics. "Uncle Billy" seemed to. rally during the afternoon, but at 10 o'clock p. m. sank suddenly and expired. Gray had lived in the village so long that even the oldest resident cannot remember when he came to the town, and he always elaimed to have arrived in Dearborn long before any of them. He was a native of England, and a pensioner of the British government, haying been injured on a warship. For years he w«s a familiar figure on the streets, until about a year ago, walking in every day from his little farm on the outskirts of the village. He owned1 a place worth, perhaps, $2,000. Lately he had come to Dearborn with a horse and wagon. On account of his age, it was impossible top him to climb into the wagon unassisted. and a short ladder was always carried in the rig.. . ^ v The aged wife says that she 'does not know what will become of her.

This remark, made by James Du7- gan on MB way back to Jail after being sentenced to life imprisonment for assault on Representative W, H. Schantz at Lansing, would indicate that there was some motive which has not been disclosed for Duggan's peculiar assault, though ' Duggan on the trial insisted to the contrary, saying that he did not know why he attacked Schantz. The case was given to the jury after the dinner hour Saturday, and after fifteen minutes' deliberation the Jury came in with a verdict of guilty of assault with intent to murder. Judge Wiest immediately called Duggan to the bar and sentenced him to imprisonment for life at Marquette. Duggan asked to be sent to Jackson, but the judge told him he thought Marquette was a better place for him.

"Pardon me, but if you have no oth jections—" The girl nodded as a matter of form, and Winthrope hastened to light the cigarette already in his fingers. The smoke by no means tended to lessen the dryness of his mouth; yet it put him in a reflective mood, and in thinking over what he had read of shipwrecked parties, he remembered that a pebble held in the mouth Is supposed to ease one's thirst To be sure, there was not a sign of a pebble within miles of where they site out after some reflection, it occurred to htm that one of his steel keys might do as well. At first Miss Leslie was reluctant to try the ex- > periment, and only the increasing drybegaa, s^pmaktabjatm searea of fish.] m n o{ her moqth forced her to seek It was no dlffcult search. The marsSjrgjvnad was.atr«wn with dead sea-creatures, many of which were already"* shriveling and drying in the sun. Some of the fish had a familiar look, and Winthrope*' turned them over With the tip of,Mat shoe. He even ; wont so far as to stoop to pick up a large mullet;'but flSjrank back, re- - gaaaed by itg iuffriesi aid the unnatsngl shaped into which the sun was * wsjrping it He found himself near the beach, and stood, for half an hour or more watching the black dot far out in the water—tH that was to be seen of Blake. The American, after wading off-shore! another quarter of a mile, had reached swimming depth, and was heading out among the reefs with steady, vigorous'strokes. Half a mile or so beyond him Winthrope could now mske out the goal for which he was aiming—the oao /emalniag topmast of the steamer.'. "By Jove^^thAse wtur* are full of sharks!" nsurffrarod Winthrope, staring at the steadily receding dot until ft disappeared behind the wall of surf; isd u> ovot»o»M at Uto oator jag* the promised relief. Though it failed to quench her thirst, she was agreeably surprised to find that the little fiat bar of metal eased her craving to a marked degree. Winthrope now thought to rig a shade as Miss Leslie had done, out of reeds and his handkerchief, for the sun was scorching his unprotected head. Thus sheltered, the two crouched as comfortably as they could upon the half-dried crest of the hummock and waited impatiently for the return of Blake. CHAPTER III. The Worth of Fire. HOUGH the sea within the reefs was fast smoothing to a glassy plain in 'the dead calm, they did not see Blake on his return until he struck shallow water and stood up to wade ashore. The tide had begun to ebb before he started landward, aad thoughJw was a powerful swimmer, taiyinff noil curse it!—wire rigging Coelda't even: get a bolt." "A boltr "Not a bolt; and here we are as good as naked oh this infernal—Hey, you! what you doing with that match? Light your cigarette—light it!— Damnation!" Heedless' of Blake's warning cry, Winthrope had struck his last vesta, and-now, angry and bewildered, he stood staring while the little taper burned itself out. With an oath, Blake sprang to catch it as it dropped from between Winthrope's fingers. But he was too far away. It fell anions the damp rushes, spluttered, and flared out. For a moment Blake knelt, staring1 at the rushes as though stupefied; then he sprang up before Winthrope, his bronzed face purple with anger; "Where's your matchbox? Got any more?" he demanded. "Last one, I fancy—yes; last one, and there are still two cigarettes. But loo*"here, Blake, I can't tolerate' your talking BO deucedly—" "You idiot! you—you— Hell! and every one for cigarettes!" From a growl Blake's voice -burst into a roar of fury, and sprang upon Winthrope like a wild beast. His hands closed upon the Englishman's throat, and he began to shake him about, paying no heed to the blow's his victim showered upon his face and body, blows which soon began to lessen in force. Terror-stricken, Miss Leslie put her hands over her eyes, and began: to scream—the piercing shriek that will unnerve the strongest man. Blake paused as though transfixed, and as the half-suffocated Englishman struggled In his grasp, he flung him on the ground and turned to the screaming girl. "Stop that squawking!" he said. The girl cowed down. "So; that's better. Next time keep your mouth shut." "You—you brute!" "Good! You've got a little spuaa, e h r ."You coward—to attack a man not half your strength!" "Steady, steady, young lady! I'm warm enough yet; I've still half a mind to wring hi« fool neck." "But why should you be so Sngry? What has he done, that you—" "Wiiy-mwhy? Lord?; what J»asavt no done? This coast fairly swarms with beasts. We've not the smell of a gun; aad now this idiot—this dough-head— has gons and thrown away our only chance—fire—and on his measly cigar rettes?" Blake choked with returning rage. Winthrope, still panting for breath, began to creep away,, at the same time unclasping a small penknife. He was white with fear; but his gray eyes— which On shipboard Blake had never seen other than offensively supercilious— now gHnted in a manner that served to alter the American's mood. 'That'll do," he said. "Come here and show me that knife." T U show it you where it will do the most good," muttered Winthrope, rising hastily to repel the expected attack. "So you've got a little sand, too," said Blake, almost good-naturedly. "Say, that's not so bad. We'll call it quits on the matches. Though how you could go and throw them away—" "Deuce take it, man! How should I know? I've never before been in a wreck." "Neither have I—this kind. But I tell you, we've got to keep our think tanks going. It's a guess If we see tomorrow, and that's no 'joke. Now do , you wonder I got hot?" "Indeed, no! I've been an ass, and here's my hand to it—if you really mean it's quits." "It's Quits all right, long as you don't run out of sand," responded Blake, aad be gripped the other's soft Jiand until the Englishman winced. {'So; that's settled. I've got a hot temper, but I don't hold grudges. Now, jrHsre're your flsh?" sJl—well, they were all spoiled.".- - "Spoiled r "The sun aad shriveled them." , -> "And yoo coil that spoiled!

"And you, Miss Jenny? Girls are supposed to know about cooking." "I never cooked anything In all my life, Mr. Blake, and i t s alive— and— and I am very thirsty. Mr.'Blake!" "Lord!" commented Blake. "Give me that knife." Though the blade was so small, the American's hand, was strong. After some little haggling, the coryphene Was killed and dressed. Blake washed both it and his hands in the pool, and began to cut slices of flesh from the fish's talt,- "We have no fire," Winthrope. reminded him, flushing at the word. "That's true," assented Blake, in a oheerful tone, and he offered Winthrope two of the pieces of raw flesh. "Here's your breakfast. The trimmed piece is for Miss Leslie." "But it's raw! Really, I could not think of eating raw flsh. Could you, Miss Leslie?" Miss Leslie shuddered. "Oh.no!— and I'm so thirsty I could not eat anything." "You bet you can!" replied Blake. "Both of you take that fish and go to chewing, It's the stuff to ease your thirst while we look for water. Good Lord!—in a week you'll be glad to eat raw snake. Finnlcky over clean flsh, when you swalkrw canva»back all but raw, and beet running blood, and raw oysters with their stomachs full of disintegrated animal matter, to put it politely.

The late Henry Miller, who was guide, philosopher and friend to maay booklovers within a thousand miles of New York, was a most successful salesman. One day he called on Collie P. Huntington and showed him a Tare copy of "There are two volumes of this," said Mr. Miller. The other volume is in perfect order, as you see this ons is. You cannot possibly let them escape yon,-for you know you have nothing like this in your library." "What is the price?" asked the railroad kmg. "Seven hundred dollars," said the bookman. "Those are too valuable volumes for my library," Mr. Huntington exclaimed. Mr. Miller went back to his place, and sent the books to Mr. Huntington's house with a bill for $700. Next day the railroad king sent for him. "Why did you send me those books?" he demanded, Sharply. • "Because you bought them," was the calm reply. "I certainly did not!" cried the millionaire. "Oh, yes, you did," answered Mr. Miller. "You'll remember perfectly well when I tell you what you said. You told me distinctly: Those are two valuable volumes for my library.'" —Harper's Weekly.

MBS. W. A. SPBOTJT, "On Friday last, May 14, it was our happy privilege to visit the Sibley school at Choudrant. The occasion was the closing exercises of that school taught by the efficient teachers, Mrs. W. A. Sprout and daughter, Miss Ethel. This was supplemented with a geueral picnic, all the community taking part aud was the success that always attends occasions of this kind wheu the people are working in co-operation and harmony. Sibley has always been one of the best schools in our knowledge, but has a reputation of bringing off picnics excelled by no other place, and in this instance came up to the full measure of former efforts. Owing to the late hour before we could leave Ruston we failed to reach the school till 12 o'clock thereby missing most of the morning exercises. We regret this for we were informed that some of the events were grand; the May Pole dance by the little tots was said to be par excellent, and the address of Prof. this of space presents our giving a full report which we regret ., Mrs. Sprout .and Miss Ethel must be what the name implies wtjen we say teacher, the evidence was there for in the reports made of the progress of the different classes as they were called to the stage to receive cards of merit, promotion, graduation, etc, fall/ attested as rapid progress as is possible to make during a term in graded school.

GIBBES MACHINERY COMPANY, COLUMBIA, SOUTH CAROLINA. C n g l n e a , tSolle>ra, S a w M i l l M s o h l n a r y , RIVERVIEW EXPOSITION'S matchless attraction is "The Creation." This stupendous scenic spectacle, animated by Biblical characters of the Garden of EUPII, is destined to attract world-wide attention. It is the product of the genius of E. W. McConnell, builder of several world's fairs, and his staff of a hundred artists. The scene is the Valley of the Euphrates, where tradition locates Eden. Awed spectators view as near to its reproduction as man may conceive. The great religious drama closely follows the Scripture. "There is first a void, thep darkness, dawn and liyht; separation of the sky, the earth and the waters; the beginning of life in the air and the waters, birds and fishes, creeping and crawling1 things, celestial anthems of unseen spirit bands; the creation o'f Adam and Eve, their temptation, transgression and expulsion by Angel Gabriel, who drives them forth with a flaming sword." A great $25,000 pipe organ intones appropriate'music. Its deep tubes produce thunder, and its flute-like notes the mimicry of forest small life. Flashes of lightning and angry storms are made by electrical and water effects. Space forbids an adequate description of this magnificent spectacle. Another great novelty is "The Races," an English panorama. Fifty horses attached to chaises raise over the highway to Coventry. £hr finrkutvi gjwpatcb. i»UBiosH*i»svaaT r a D a a r u * X O U M « 6 at Mibaeration Price $1 in Advance.

O^OattHJOIT, NO. 22-1909 William Jennings Bryan buya a farm in the Gulf Coa$t Country He has purchased 160 acres of irrigaled land near Mission, Hidalgo Go., Texas. Forty have been cleared and planted to orange, lemon, grape fruit, fig, olive, pecan, almond trees, etc., and if they "do as well as he expects" he will build a home and speqd a portion of his winters there. Mr. Bryan has long contemplated improving a place in the South, and it is not surprising that his selection should be taade in the heart of the Gulf Coast Country, whose climate is almost ideal and whose soil is so wonderfully productive. William Volz, from ten acres in the same neighborhood, shipped 5,000 eratea of Bermuda Onions from 10 acrea at an average price—after all ezpenaea paid—of $1.00 per crate; $500 an acre. Think of it! On a amall tract of land in the Gulf Coast Country you should be able to make a good living and lay away a snug turn each year. Investigate this proposition while the land is within your reach.

Thomas Butler, a colonel in the army of the United States turly In the nineteenth century,, died in New Orleans in 1806 In the midst of his celebrated controversy with General Wilkinson regarding the wearing of bis cue. Colonel Butler Insisted on wearing his hair in the old fashioned style in disobedience to Wilkinson's orders. According to Pierce Butler In his biography of Judah P. Benjamin, while the dispute wan still raging Butler died and left directions that a hole should be bored in the head of his coffin and that he should be borne to the grave with his triumphant pigtail protruding In defiance. The family tradition Is that tfeeee directions were carried o u t - New York Sun. A Pastoral. The sun was rising in the west and shed its bo:ujw on Cednrerest, where pensive ^(nit ;iud -.sportive, cow were perched u|icn the cednr bough.

When rain is coming the solid particles will tend gradually to mount, little crystals forming in the liquid, which otherwise remains clear. If high winds are ap proachlng the liquid will become as 11 fermenting, while a film of solid parti cles forms on the surface. During fait weather the liquid will remain cleat and the solid particles will rest at tht bottom. Virago. The word "virago," which dictionaries now define as meaning "a hold, Impudent, turbulent, woman, a terma gant," originally signified, both by der lvatlon and In use, just a manly woman, in the sense of a heroine or aruu zon. When Piautus spoke of a servant maid as a "virago," he merely meant that she was a strapping young woman, and the Romans applied the word with no intention of irreverent rudeness to Diana and Minerva. The Vul gate even has "virago" simply for woman, as the name given by Adam to bis helpmate. In Latin the word never became twisted Into the unkindly sense that has corns about in English. —London Notes and Queries.

Her words and works will be missed in the unfolding years, but she will still speak with greater and -till greater force from her "Home Beyond" as the coming years shall roll by. She is mourned by her two sisters, Mrs. Susan Campbell, Rochester, N. Y.; Airs. Lavina Brokaw, Pinckney; a nephew, L. D. Brokaw, Detroit, Mich., Mr. and Mrs. Met Rose, Bay City, Mich.; Mrs. L. T.

The Creamery here has been doing business for more than a week and ia doing nicely: The amount of cream and milk is increasing each day and there is every showing of a grand sue cess. Mr. Day of the Michigan Creamey Co. has put nothing but the bust ma* chinery into the plant and already jobbers are calling on him and trying to make arrangements for the entire production of the factoiy, both cheese and butter. Remember this is not an institution for the summer only, but will run the entire twelve months and you get your money every two weeks. There is nothing pays better dividends than the milch con on the farm and the> sooner farmers stock up and get ready to sell milk to the Michigan Creamery Company, the quicker the farmer will begin to add to bis bank account. II you cannot get ready before, make arrangements at least to be ready for the winter months. Lay in feed and secure cows coming in at that time and reap a harvest. Remember prices are better in the winter than in the summer, running as biyh as $1.50 per 100 pounds. Many have never kept many cows in this section as it was too far from any factory, but ncr.v that there U one right here at your door that will take any amount from 10 to 10,000 lbs there is no reason why you should not get in on the ground floor and win out with the rest. * Obituary* A HIAhly £»teemed Citizen of Putnam Fa*»es A w a y , after an (line** of over T w o Years.

He was united in marriage with Miss Harriet Fewlass in 1857. On the 21st of April of the following year, he and hie young bride, together with her parents, 6ade farewell to all loved ones and started for America. J-ust five weeks afterwards they began to settle on the farm where they have, toiled and shared each others joys and sorrows up to the time of his death. To them six children were born: G. D. at, homa, Mrs. .).>hn Bruff of Marion, W. H. of Putnam, Mrs. VVm. Buhl of Gregory, Mrs. Fred Burgess of Putnam and H. M. of Howell. Air. Bland was a kind neighbor and ever teady to lond a helping band. The doors of his home were willingly thrown open to hospitality. Nearly every Sabbath he was found in the House of Worship as Ion* as it was possible for him to attend. Often in his last sickness, he has said, UI leave all with the dear Lord, He knows best." We cannot weep as those who weep without hope, for in his last moments be said, "Bless the loving Lord, He will be with me." He leaves besides his loving wife and children, one dear brother in England, eicrht grandchildren and a host of friends to ar=ourn their Jo*. "Dearest father thou hast left u* And thy lom we deeply feel; But 'tis God that has bereft us, He can ail our Borrow heal. r Yet again we hope to meet thee, When the day of life is fled.

This section was visited again by a big wind and rain atorm last Saturday. It looked quite threatening for a time but the worst went west of town. In the western and northern part of the county much damage was done and near FowierviMe one woman, Mrs Wm, Ludke, who was afflicted with heart trouble, died from fright. In Fowlertrille several buildings, including the elevator, depot and Catholic church were pratically destroyed. The priest and janitor were in the building wben the storm struck, it but got out before the walls fell. There were three peoole injured in that village, one little girl having her arm broken. Tbo damage is estimated at about 140,000 there. From there northest through the county the storm continued its work ot destrnction and many buildings were unrooted and some entirely destroyed. The storm covered an area of about a mile in width and it is a wonder that more were not killed or injured. * * W. B. DARROW QA1S Of THAHKg.

"A woman's sphere Is to keep hcAise," the masculine conservative growls, whereat the suffragette pouts and protests. Yet both may be right. Much depends on the breadth of the term. The trouble is the suffragette and the antl-suffragette seem to imply that housekeeping is not much of a job. As a matter of fact, it is the bigpeat in creation, when measured by any true standard of values. It is really the one and only universal, indispensable trade, as necessary izi China as in America, among the Esquimos as among the Europeans, in the cave as well as in the palace, beneath the thatch no less than beneath the tile.

The police have Duggan's bloody clothes and the bloody razor found on him when the police arrested him shortly after the crime. Duggan's record is entirely against h.m. He has been arrested numerous times in this and other cities for various crimes, and has twice at least fought the. police with the wicked frenzy whiph be displayed last, night. He refused to talk a'bout the matter today. Friends of Schantz say he struggled with Duggan when he was attacked, and they believe that was the cause of the slashing the man did with the razor. ' James Duggan was taken to the city hospital and there was positively identified by Rep. Schantz as the map who slashed the legislator across the throat last week. Schantz is still weak from loss of blood, but declares he will be out in a few days. Col. Avery Stood, Mute. Col. Stephen H. Avery, former quartermaster- general, indicted by the grand jury for the embezzlement of $2,300^ was arraigned before Judge Parkinson in Jaekson, waived the reading of the Indictment, stood mute and was held for trial, bail being fixed at $3,000. Charles Lewis and J. H. Mahoney qualified as sureties.- Sheriff Bean arrested Col. Avery on a sage brush ranch near Wendell. Lincoln county, Idaho, which he had purchased. The indictment charges that Avery embezzled the sum of $2,- 300 by collecting money on a contract for a heating plant, which his firm installed in the postofflre. On January 6, 1906, Postmaster Richardson turned over a draft to Avery, which he cashed at a local bank, and immediately left the city, leaving creditors in the Jurch. His bondsmen, a surety company, has made good the'defifcit. Avery claims he has a good defense on the charge of embezzlement, but would make no other Statement. STATE BRIEFS. The equal-suffragists may consider Mew England as practically lost to ihe cause, since a prominent one of :helr number sarcastically told the Pilgrim Mothers that from the tens of housands she has met in the United States whose ancestors came over >>n the Mayflower, she was led to believe that vessel the size of the Lusitania, or a whole fleet of modern steamers. Now there is a coldness in the cause. For the second time within a couple of weeks, the American bluejacket has distinguished himself. A fire broke out In a Philadelphia tenement on Friday; a man climbed the rainspout to the Decond story and helped five persons to safety. On his cap was the name of the battleship Kearsarge, but he refused to give his own name. His modesty gave the finishing touch to a brave deed. A Mysterious Girl. A tangible clue seems to have been secured by the Muskegon officers to the identity of Hattie Talket, the 13- year-old girl, whose unbroken silence since she was first, found in that city, unkempt arid begging, has baffled all the attempts of the Muskegon and Grand Rapids authorities to find her parents. County Poor Superintendent Gordon has received an unsigned letter mailed from Newaygo inquiring for the girl, purporting to be from her parents. The writer states that he thinks Hattie is his (laughter who ran away three months ago and asks for a description of her. He says that he saw her picture in a Grand Rapids paper, evidently having picked up and old issue. The local authorities are at a loss what to do in case the writer of the letter proves his parentage. It is plain that Hattie came from an ignorant household, while now she is well looked after by a farmer's family at Nunica. There is always a day of settlement Tor countries where fanatical mobs or murderous Rnldiers are permitted to run loose. China learned that lesson when it met the bill for damages to foreigners by the Boxers.

The estimates of from 20,000 to 25,- 000 Christians killed by Mohammedans in the province of Adana, made a foftntght ago, must be revised. It is now ascertained that the number can hardly reach more than 10,000, possibly less, Thousands who were supposed to have been killed in the country districts, have since come into some one of the large towns for relief. Nearly 50,000 persons have received assistance from the American, French, German, Armenian and Turkish relief committees or officials In Adana, 22,000 in Marash, 14,000 in Hadjin, 3,000 In Mersina, 2,000 in Latakia, 4,000 in Tarsus and a comparatively large number in Aintah and Alexandretta. Fugitives from the villages or settlements, who first reached the large towns after the massacres began, exaggerated, through their fears the extent of the slaughter, but although the later figures are lower than the first estimates, there still remains the dreadful fact that frightful brutality was practiced, especially toward women. The Mohammedan figures, of about 2.000 Mohammedans killed in this province, must also be reduced.

An attack is being made by the press upon the kaiser for his reckless extravagance. The nation has already an annual deficit of $125,000,000 and the papers are beginning to complain that the nation cannot afford to pay $6,000 for the cost of the journey when his majesty travels...from Potsdam to Venice. The latest example of the kaiser's extravagance is in connection with an order he recently gave for three new motor cars-. He ordered them to be painted pale yellow, with dark brown streaks. Owing to an official's mistake the streaks were painted black, and although the difference was undistingulshable to the ord miry eye the kaiser ordered i all three- cars to be repainted.

Wave-Toeeed and Castaway. HE beginning waa at Cape Town, when Blake and Wlnthrope boarded the at/earner aa fellow, paaaengera with JLady Bayrose and her party. This was a week after Wlnthrope fcad arrived on the tramp steamer from India, and her ladyship had explained to Miss Leslie that it was as well for her not to be too hasty in accepting his attentions. To be sure, >he waa an Englishman, his dress and manners were irreproachable, and he was in the prime of ripened youth. "Yet Lady Bayrose was too conscientious a chaperon to be fully satisfied with her countryman's bare assertion that he was engaged on a diplomatic mission requiring reticence regarding bis identity. She did not see why this should prevent him from confiding i n her. Notwithstanding this, Wlnthrope •came aboard ship virtually as a member of her ladyship's party. He was ao quick, so thoughtful of her comfort, and paid so much more attention to tier than to Miss Leslie, that her ladyship had decided to tolerate him, even before Blake became a factor in the situation. From the moment he crossed the gangway the American engineer entered upon a daily routine of drinking* and gambling, varied only by attempts to strike up an off-hand acquaintance with Miss Leslie. Thla was Wlnthrope's opportunity, and his clever frustration, of - what Lady Bayrose termed "that low bounder's impudence" served to install him in the good graces of her ladyship as well as 1n the favor of the American heiress. Such, at least, was what Wlnthrope Intimated to the persistent engineer with a superciliousness of tone and manner that would have atung even a British lackey to resentment. To Blake it was supremely galling. He could net rejoin in kind, and the slightest attempt at physical retort would have meant irons and confinement. It was a British ship. Behind Wlnthrope was Lady Bayrose; behind her ladyship, as a matter of course, was all the despotic authority of the captain. In the circumstances, it was not surprising that the American drank heavier after each successive goading. Meantime the ship, having touched at Port Natal, steamed on up the east coast, into the Mozambique channel. . On the day of the cyclone, Blake had withdrawn into his stateroom with a number of bottles, and throughout that fearful afternoon was blissfully unconscious of the danger. Even when the steamer went on the reef, he was only partially rouaed by the shock. He took a long pull from a quart flask of whisky, placed the flask with great care in his hip pocket, and lurched out through tkre open doorway. The sea was breaking over the steamer in torrents; but between waves Blake was dragged across to the aide and flung over into the bottom of the one remaining boat. He served as a cushion to break the fall of MISB Leslie, who was tossed in after him. At the same time, Wlnthrope, frantic with fear, scrambled into the bows and cut loose. She and Winthrope saw the steamer Blip from the reef and sink back into dpep water, carrying down in the vortex the mate and the few remaining sailors. After thftt all was chaos to tliem. They were driven ashore before the terrific gusts of the cyclone, blindcrl by the stinging spoondrift to all else but the hell of breakers and ccrrJ reefs in whoso midst .thqy. awlrled so dizzily. And through it all Blake lay huddled on the bottom board* There otS^^^^ih^hnnl, mo- "| meat when the boat-went apkaaftafr alarm pf em J*f».-i t j y !

A smother of broken aurf came seething rnp from doe of the- great breakers, to roll him over and scrape him a little farther, up the muddy shore. There the flood deposited him far. a m^waati uatjjl it could- gather force to aweep back and drag him down again toward the roaring aea that had cast Him up. Blake* objected—not te the danger, of being drowned, but to Interference with hia repose. He had reached the obstinate stage. He grunted 4 protest. Again the flood seethed up the shore, and rolled him away from the danger. Thla waa too much! He set bia jaw, turned over, and ataggered to hia feet Inatantly one of the terrific wind-blaats struck hia broad back and aent ~nixn spinning for yards. He brought up in a shallow pool, beside a hummock. Under the lee of the knoll lay Wlnthrope and Miss Leslie. Though conscious, both' were draggled and bruised and beaten to exhaustion. They were together because they bad come ashore together. When the boat capsized, Mlas Leslie had been flung against the Englishman, and they had held fast to each other with the desperate clutch of drowning persons. Neither of them ever recalled how they gained the shelter of the hummock. Blake, sitting waist-deep in the pool, blinked at them benignly with his pale blue eyes, and produced the quart flask, still a third full of whisky. "I ahay, froa'a." he obaerved, "ha' one on me. Won' cos' you shent— notta re* shent l" "You fuddled lout!" shouted Wlnthrope. "Come out of that pool." "Wassama'er pool? Pool's allri'!" The Englishman squinted through the driving Bcud at the intoxicated man with an anxious frown. In all probability he felt no commiseration H <*• Sleeping the Sleep of the Just and the Drunkard. for the American; but it was no light matter to be flung up barehanded on the most unheal thful and savage stretch of the Mozambique coast, and Blake might be able to help them out of their predicament. To leave him in the pool was therefore not to be thought of. So soon as he had drained his bottle, he would lie down, and that would be the end of him. As any attempt to move him forcibly was out of the question, the situation demanded that Winthrope justify his intimations of diplomatic training. After considering the problem for several minutes, he met it in a way that proved he was at least not lacking in shrewdness and tact. "See here, Blake," he called, in another lull between the shrieking gusts, "the lady is fatigued. You're too much of a gentleman to ask her to come over there." It required some moments for this to penetrate Blake's fuddled brain. After a futile attempt to gain his feet, he crawled out of the pool on all fours, and, with tears in his eyes, pressed hia flask upon Miss Leslie. She shrank away from him. shuddering, and drew herself up in a huddle of flaccid limbs and limp garments. Winthrope, however, not only accepted the flask, but come near to draining i t Blake squinted at the diminished contents, hesitated, and cast a glance of maudlin gallantry at Miss Leslie. She lay coiled, closer than before, in a draggled heap. Her posture suggested sleep. Blake stared at her, the flask extended waveringly before him. Then he brought it to his lips, and drained out the last drop. "Time turn in," he mumbled, and sprawled full length in the brackish ooze. Immediately he fell into a drunken stupor. Wlnthrope, Invigorated by the liquor, rose to his knees, and peered around It was impossible to face the scud and spoond¥tft*from the furiqug, saa; bu^' CHAPTER II. Worse Than Wilderness. WAIL from Miss Leslie roused the Englishman out of a dream in which be had been swimming for life across a sea of boiling oil. He sat up and gazed about him, half-dazed. The cyclone had been followed by a dead calm, and the sun, already well above the horizon, waa blazing upon them over the glassy surfaces of the dying swells with fierce heat. Winthrope felt about for bis hat It had been blown off when, at the striking of the steamer, he bad rushed up on deck. As he remembered, he straightened, and looked at his companions. Blake lay snoring where he had first outstretched himself, sleeping the sleep of the just—and of the drunkard. The girl, however, waa already awake. She gat with her hands clasped in her lap, while the tears rolled slowly down her cheeks. "My—ah—dear Miss Genevieve, what Is the matter?" exclaimed Wlnthrope. "Matter? Do you ask, when we are here on this wretched coast, and may not get away for weeks? Oh, I did so count on the London season this year! Lady Bayrose promised that I should be among those presented." "Well, I—ah—fancy, Lady BayroBe will do no more presenting—unless it may be to the heavenly choir, you know." "Why, what do you mean, Mr. Winthrope? You told me that she and the maids had been put in the largest boat—" "My dear Miss Genevieve, you must remember that I am a diplomat. It was all quite sufficiently harrowing, I assure you. They were, indeed, put into the largest boat— Beastly muddle!— While they waited for the mate to fetch you, the boat was crushed alongside, and all in it drowned." "Drowned!—drowned! Oh, dear Lady Bayrose! And she'd traveled so much—-oh, oh, It Is horrible! Why did she persuade me to visit the Cape? It waa only to be with heir—And then for us to start off for India, when we might have sailed straight to England! Oh, it is horrible! horrible! And my maid, and all—It cannot be possible!" "Pray, do not excite yourself, my dear Miss Genevieve. Their troubles are all over. Er—Gawd has taken them to Him, you know." "But the pity of it! To be drowned —so far from home!" "Ah, if that's all you're worrying about!—I must say I'd like to know how we'll get a snack for breakfast. I'm hungry as a—er—groom." "Eating! How can you think of eating, Mr. Winthrope—and all the others drowned? This sun is becoming dreadfully hot. It is unbearable! Can you not put up some kind of an awning?" "Well, now, I must say, I was never much of a hand at such things, and really I can't imagine what one could rig up. There might have been a bit of sail in the boat, but one can't see a sign of it. I fancy it was smashed." Miss Leslie ventured a glance at Blake. Though still lying as he had sprawled in his drunkenness, there was a comforting suggestion of power in his broad shoulders and square jaw. "Is he still—in that condition T "Must have slept it off by this time, and there's no more in the flask," answered Winthrope. Reaching over with his foot, he pushed against Blake's back. "Huh! All right," grunted the sleeper, and sat up, as had Winthrope, half dazed. Then he stared around him, and rose to his feet. "Well, what in hell! Say, this is damn cheerful!" "I fancy we are in a nasty fix. But T say, my man. there is a woman present, and your language, you know—" Blake turned and fixed the Englishman with a cold stare. 'Look here, you bloomin' lud." he said, "there's juat one thing you're goiag to understand, right here and now. I'm not your man. and we're not going t o have any ef that kind of blatter.'

And now, I fancy that, instead of wasting time—" "It's about time you introduced me to the lady," interrupted Blake, and he stared at them half defiantly, yet with a twinkle in hia eyes. Miss Leslie flushed. Wlnthrope swore softly, and bit his lip. Aboard ship, backed by Lady Bayroee and the captain, he had goaded the American at pleasure. Now, however, the situation waa reversed. Both title and authority bad been swept away by the storm, and he was left to shift for himself against the man who bad every reason to hate him for his overbearing Insolence. Worse still, both he and Misa Leslie were now dependent upon the American, in all probability for life itself. It waa a bitter pill and hard to swallow. Blake was not slow to observe the Englishman's hesitancy. He grinned. "Every dog has his day, and I guess this is mine," he said. "Take your time, if it comes hard. I can Imagine it's a pretty stiff dose for your ludshlp. But why in—why in frozen hades an American lady should object to an introduction to a countryman who's going to do hia level best to save her pretty little self from the hyenaa— well, it beats me." Winthrope flushed redder than the girl. "Miss Leslie, Mr. Blake," he murmured, hoping to put an end to the situation. But yet Blake persisted. He bowed, openly exultant. "You aee, misB," he said, "I know the correct thing quite as much aa your swells. I knew all along you were Jenny Leslie. I ran a survey for your dear papa when he was manipulating the Q. T. railroad, and he did me out of my pay." (TO BE CONTINUED.) FIRST CHARGE TO CUSTOMERS, Somewhat Novel Syatem in Vogue In Stores of Salem.

"Thank you; I really couldn't use it" I replied, edging away for the door. "But the charge is ten cents," she added, coldly, moving nearer. "So I understand," 3aid I, skillfully maneuvering for a hurried but dignified exit. "The admission to the store is ten cents," she put in here, with chilly distinctness, outflanking me.

A minister's wife had quite a tussle with coffee and her experience is interesting. She says: "During the two years of my training as a nurse, while oh ni^ht duty, I became addicted to coffee drinking. Between midnight and fourth'the morning, when the patients were asleep, there was little to do except make the rounds, and it was quite natural that I should want a good, hot cup of coffee about that time. It stimulated me and I could keep awake better. "After three or four years of cofTee drinking I became a nervous wreck and thought that I simply could not live without my coffee. All this time I was subject to frequent bilious attacks, sometimes so severe as to keep me in bed for several days. "After being married. Husband begged me to leave off coffee for he feared that it had already hurt me almost beyond repair, so I resolved to make an effort to release myself from the hurtful habit. "I began taking Postutn. and for a few days felt the languid, tired feeling from the lack of the stimulant, but I liked the taste of Postum and that answered for the breakfast beverage all right. "Finally I began to feel clearer headed and had steadier nerves. After a year's use of Postum I now feel like a new woman—have not had any bilious attacks since I left off coffee." ^ "There's a Reason." Read "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs.

This ruui&eller, just like the rest of his 'kind, Had a weakness for gems, so it entered ! his mind To order one made, and the very same I day ! He wrote hie order in nomewhat tins {way: "Dear Chemist: Please make me the sort I of a stone I That a prosperous wiue merchant gladly : would own. ! I want it to weigh about so many grains, ' And I'd like a brief statement of what ' it contains." I The chemist replied: "Not a gem have ; I wrought, i But to bartenders' diamonds I've given some thought. i Of the things they contain you hare nskj ed for a list ; Well, I can't name them all but these few will assist: i ! "Some cheap one+t are made from a mans ' broken vows, | Who has chanced to recover from one ! night's carouse. | There are others more costly: they're mado of the lives Of the thousands who perish, where one man survives. There are some of pure white, like the '•, finest of pearls ; j These are made from the souls of the j hoys and the girls, I Whose paths were at tint, with bright '< promises strewn, j 'Till their feet led them into the open ' saloon. | "The eW-ar crystall ones are of womanj hood's tears, I Condensed from the pitiful anquish of 'years. i And the rarest that ever I've fl<»«n in my life, Were the tenrs of a daughter, a mother, ! a wife.

AU this was very gratifying to Mrs. Bascom, but she longed for a wider recognition of her genius. One autumn—after an unusually successful season In the grocery business— Mrs. Bascom's poems were published. They were bound In white and bore in gold letters < the title, "Poems of the Heart, by Mrs. Alonso Bascom." Gift copies were presented to all her friends, and as these were numerous the edition was Boon exhausted. For a time Mrs. Bascom's poet soul basked in the light of the gold letters that glowed upon her from the center tables of her friends at "societies," "teas" or afternoon calls; but at last even gold letters* began to pall, and she cast about for some means of gaining a fresh tribute to her genius. "If I could only use my talent," she thought, "to brighten the lives of those who have no poetry hi their souls; if I could cast some beam of beauty over the life of some poor drudge— Ah, I have it! Jane Moore' I will write a poem about her and her family and have it printed in the News. How pleased she wfll be to find that her humble lot has been chosen by a poeteBS to be ceie- 'i Can Prove It's braced in verse!" And MJK9, Bascom'* heart glowed with the consciousness of.orirtuous genius. An afternoon's labor produced tho following: THE BEATJTT OP PIETY. In a lowly moag'grown cottage, By a rippling rivulet's shore, Dwelt a family, poor but pioua, And the family name w*t Moore.

Day by day she rubs and rinses. While he sweeps and dusts with care; Then within those pews he lingers, Thinking of his parents dear.. Mrs. Bascom was in tears as she finished. "It's the most beautiful and touching poem I ever wrote," she sobbed; "how moved Jane Moore will be! It will be an inspiration to her all her life." And she carefully gathered up her manuscript and carried It to the" News office with her own hands. Thursday the News was published, and Thursday afternoon J«b« Moore was^ttccustomed to bring home Mrs. Bascom's "week's wash." Mrs. Bascom arranged a delightful plan for observing that worthy spinster's surprise and delight when she should first read "The Beauty of Piety." As a result, when Jane knocked at the kitchen door on this eventful Thursday if was opened by one of Mrs. Basconi'i admiring, friends. {Mrs. Bascom waft I n ^ b * adjoining pantry, with the door^hairopen.W +«*.*».j 2 , "Ain't Mis' Bascom to h u m T Inquired Jane, somewhat surprised, "She'll be bars pretty soon.

She was nervously fingering a paper she held in her hand, and interrupted with: "Have you s e e s this- week's News? It has just come, and there's a poem in it by Mrs. Bascom that I think ia better than anything she ever wrote." "Huh!" ejaculated Jane. "I sh'd hope so! I'm sure that's not sayin' much!" But she sat down and, taking the proffered paper, began to read. "What's this?" she exclaimed, jumping up excitedlyr-"'name was Moore!' I'd like to know what right she's got to drag me into her po'try. 'Worked from early morn till night' Stuff an' nonsense!

Everybody 'round here knows ma died o' consumption and pa o' lung fever." The paper shook in her hands as she read the remaining lines aloud in an angry tone. "Where is Mis' Bascom?" she demanded of the frightened neighbor. "I'll have the law on her fer this! I'll learn her better than to slander respectable folks. I'll—I'll—" She stumbled on the threshold and fell back against the pantry door. Mrs. Bascom, confused and trembling at the unexpected turn events had taken, stood before her. At the sight of the poetess Jane's Indignation reaoted its climax. She fairly choked iff a vain attempt to give;adeauate exjtresstoa,; toJfeerblastings, c WltaWshaJdngV hand she flour, lshed the. obnoxious verses before the pale lace of the authoress.'

"Come Jane, come!" interceded the neighbor, laying an entreating hand upon the arm of the wrathful spinster, "don't say any more; you know how nervous Mrs. Bascom is." "Fer the Hake o* that poor, abused man Aloriio Bascom'I'll go home an' say nothin'.

Several men ran to obey her commands. Then the girl stood up. She looked at the bloody floor, at the white-lipped, unconscious, man at her feet, at the group that was crowding around and calling her "heroine," and then she sank back. She tried to be brave, but she couldn't help fainting dead away. The manager elbowed his way through the crowd to the girl. He delegated two of them to assist Miss Lacey to her home.

They give BOlid character and dignity to the home setting, and If rightly arranged afford a pleasing background to the home landscape picture. Their shade and seclusion are enjoyed when located not too near the dwelling. Make the back yard as clean and inviting as the front yard. Plant it with choice flowers, shrubs and climbing vines. Let It be the very garden of Eden, where every member of the household can breathe the rarest perfumes, feast the eyes • on delicate forms and colors and enjoy completely the best that the exterior home can give.

IFYOllVfc NEVER W W ! you've yet to team the bodily comfort ft <jiv» in the wettest wwther Spring and Summer Feeding. Feed each colony a Htle warm, thin sirup. Leave the feeders under the hives all summer, as they are not in the way, and when from any cause the bees cannot get honey from the flowers, you can easily give them a little sirup, thus often saving their brood, says a writer in Farmers' Home. Food given judiciously is of immense advantage, for without it many beekeepers would have empty instead of full supers. Food in some form may be required in the spring to help on a colony to its full strength In readiness for the honey n W ; it is none the less needful during the summer, when through a continuance of unfavorable weather loss by death is otherwise in: evitable. Lawns Useful as Well as Ornamental. The main part of the home grounds planting should consist of a wide and long grassy lawn, stretching out from the baBe of the dwelling in all directions and terminating at the extreme outer boundaries near the fence, if there b? any fence. The less obstructed the lawn is the more expansive and refreshing it will appear. A single shrub or a group of shrubs or a flower bed in the middle of the lawn defeats the very idea for which the plants are intended. Cutting up the unity of the lawn with other planting destroys its integral beauty and apparently expansive extent and makes it inconvenient as a pleasure ground for games and similar amusements. The grassy lawn in summer and at other seasons should be pleasing not only to look at, but to walk over and run over by both children and grownup people. WJ t h e s e Little Fills.

Either build a poultry tight fence or expect to bave no good lawn and flowers. Poultry not only destroys tlie possibility of home grounds adornment, but makes the ground filthy and insanitary, and is a general nuisance forever at the kitchen door.

It was the late bishop of London, Dr. Qrelghton, and Lord Rosebery. Lord Boeebery complained to the bishop of want of sleep, to whtoh the bishop replied that he never suffered from insomnia. The earl observed that he wished to know the remedy. The bishop's formula was very simple. If he felt drowsy he started to write a eennon, and In a few momenta he was wide awake. On the other hand, If he wanted sleep all ho bad to do was to to read a sermon. Then sleep In a few seconds. Lord Rose replied that It waa his practice t» choose the lesser evil and he pre lerred want of sleep to reading sermons. Irregular Spellers.

A man named Foglio was urrested by the French police at the Instance of the Italian government He waa suspected of complicity in a Sicilian murder crime, and it was known that he waa a member of the Mafla. In jail he weakened and promised to tell the whole story on condition that bis life was spared. Two mornings later his Jailer, visiting the cell, found Foglio on the floor, stabbed to the heart. The dagger was still In the wound, and on the body lay a scrap of paper with the words, "So perish traitors," In Italian. To this day the mystery of'that death wound has never been solved. be drive An Old Laroh Tree. Italy can boast of a larch tree the age of which is estimated to be 2,000 years. It Is situated on the northern flank of Mont Chetlp In the direction of the huts of Plan Venl, above Courmayeur, a few steps from the footpath that skirts the limits of the mendowland. Due allowance being made for the extreme slowness with which the larch grows, for the altitude above sea level (1,050 meters) at which. It is rooted and for Its northerly exposure in the near neighborhood of the glacier, where the cycle of its development Is barely five months every year, this venerable larch, untouched alike by woodman's ax and thunderbolt, cannot be less than 3,000 yenr> old.—Scotsman.

To be perfectly correct the word 41s" should be "are," but people have used It in the present form so long that they never think of regardtag it as a blunder. There are teachers who say such an expression is right because It sounds right, but reverse it Ned say, "The kingdom, the power and the glory Is thine," and the fault la soon perceived.
