M i M M p i 5E «K5SB« ***** SENATOR EGER IS LIFE CLOSED IN HIS WASHINGTON HOME SUDDENLY THURSDAY MORNING. FAINTING SPELLS GIVE WARNING. T h e Funeral Services in Washington and Detroit W e r e of Plainest Character. Unostentatious l i k e H i s D a i l y Life. Senator Russell A. Alger, of Michigan, died suddenly at his home in Washington at 8:45 o'clock Thursday morning, following an acute' attack of oedema of the lungs. Both Mrs. Alger and his son, Capt. Frederick M. Alger, were with him at the end. Dr. Gerry Morgan, Senator Alger's physician, in discussing the latter's death, said: "Gen. Alger had suffered {or a good many years with chronic valvular disease of the heart, but of late he seemed to be a good deal better. Thursday morning he awakened as usual about 7 o'clock and about 8 o'clock got up and went about the roopxfor a few minutes. Then he lay down and was at once stricken with acute oedema of the lungs. Ten minutes after he was stricken he watt unconscious and did not regain consciousness. His death was qutet and apparently painless." Dr. Clayton was called in, but the senator was breathing his last at that time. It is said Senator Alger has had fainting spells at times that gave warning of the end. but the call was more sudden than had been expected. The senator, too, had recently beenfeeling so much improved that he had planned a farewell reception to celebrate his retirement from public life, the invitations for th>s" we*e prepared and addressed and ready for the mails. It wa*-Ttb hare- occurred February 5. The guests to be bidden to it included the vice-president and many senators, the members of the cabinet, the diplomatic corps, the speaker and most of the Michigan people now in Washingtor's friends in private life President Roosevelt, as soon as he was told of Senator Alger's" death, wrote a letter to Mrs. Alger and sent It to the Alger home by. special messenger. It was a note of deep sympathy and appreciation of the general's services to his country. In accordance wit* Mrs. Alger's wishes, no public funeral service was held in the senate chamber. There was a service at the residence at 2 o'clock Saturday and Rev. Edward Everett Hale, chaplain of the senate, and Rev. Dr. Radcllffe, of the New York Avenue Presbyterian cliurch, which Gen. Alger attended, conducted the bervlces. The body arrived in Detroit Sunday. By request of Mrs. Alger, Col. Frank Hecker took charge of the funeral arrangements in Detroit, which consisted of religious service at the Alger family homestead at 2 o'clock Monday afternoon. The house upon receiving notification of Ihe fact adjourned out of respect to the memory of the late senator. The war department issued a special order on the death of Gen. Alger recalling his services as a soldier and as secretary of war, and that as a mark of respect to the deceased the flags at all military posts of the country be lowered to half-mast on the day of the funeral. The session of the senate was held entire!*/ with reference to the death of Senator Alger. Rev. Dr. Edward Everett Hale delivered a special prayer, after which the reading of the journal was interrupted • by*"Senator Burrows-, »who present*** resolutions expressing the regret and sorrow of the body at the sudden death, and providing for a special committee of 12 senators to represent the senate at the funeral and attend the body to Detroit, to be composed of the following senators: Burrows, Fry, Daniel, NeV son, Warren, Spooner, Scott, Dillingham, Foster, Patterson, Dick and Crane. ' .V Gov. Warner Thursday aftertfbon issued a formal proclamation on the death of Senator Alger. A message was ton as well as a number of the sena-„,sent to both houses of the legislature, also a proclamation which ordered all flags on public buildings at half-mast and the suspension of business in the state departments on the day of the funeral. -•*- • At the opening of the house Thursday afternoon the proclamation of the governor was read, and then Rep. Joseph M. Weiss, the Wayne member of Senator Alger's last senatorial committee, was recognized. Mr. Weiss presented a concurrent resolution on the death of his old chief, which was adopted by a rising vote. world has a straat-or square to suflteieat unto Ifr self and to largely a separate chrte entity aii to Times Square. Probably ad place of Its tit* has such a large transient population. If one counts the persons who dine or attend theatrical performances at the square. It to estimated that close to 1,000,000 persona traverse the square every day, and there run through it In the oouree of the day about 1,600 street cars and over 600 subway trains. Times Square embraces, of course, the junction of Seventh avenue and Broadway, and is properly bounded on the south by the Times building and on the north by the south, side of. Forty-seventh street. If one traverses tfia blocks in this territory, scrutinising the stores and buildings along hi* path, he ,will f£u<Lflve theaters, two hotels, three drug stores, two candy, shops, four automobile stores, ten restaurants, two florists, six saloons, five cigar stores, three real estate offices, three tailors, three jewelers, three cleaning shops, two harness makers, two milliners, and two modistes. Then there are*.a bank, a fruit store,, a shoe shop, a pawnbroker, a carriage maker, a piano store, an express company, a pawn ticket sfUer, a furrier, a haberdashery,, a Jsundry, and even an oldfashioned blacksmith's shop. There is also a drug store in the Times building and various shops there conduct a rushing business in the quiet .corridors below the level qt the roaring street. In addition the Hotel Asto* conducts a private furniture shop, a carpenter's shop, and a silversmith's, shop, where its thousands of Knives, forks, and spoons are replated ev%xy tew months. The Hotel Knickerbocker is likewise a center of perpetual activity. It would appear that everything calculated.to make life comfortable might be obtain on Times Square, but one may range the square over without Ending any grocery or butcher's shop. It is estimated that fully 8,000 persons are fed at Times Square every night, including dinners and suppers. There is such a diversity of eating places in the square that one may sit at a counter, and dine for ten cents or spend $1,000 on a meal. Any evening one may find jwrsons from all partB of the world dining at the restaurants that surround the square. Times Square never sleeps. Even at the city's quietest hour, just before dawn, when most good, citlsens are safely tucked under the bedclothes, groups of stragglers are coming from the big all-night restaurants, cabs are rumbling over the asphalt, and here and there,big motor cars are whirling by. The busiest time on the sqtuue, however, begins at twilight and closes at midnight The business day of the square officially ends about midnight! when the night branch of the bank in the square closes its doors. •B" r f Sm m*** IS* '•-• TnaOpayJiale flanw * i l r a r l * I^noil-Jiow doe!

Sosaeilme* his grievance would have a personal basis, as when he told then; "I have gone to work and made roads to the canyon for wood; and 1 have cut wood down and piled it up, and then I have not got it I wonder if any of you can say as much about the wood I have left there. I could tell stories of Elders that found and took my wood that should make professional thieves blush*. And again X have proof to show that Bishops have taken thousands of pounds of wheat in tithing which they have never reported to the general tithlng-oflice,— proof that they stole the wheat to let their friends speculate upon." Under .this very pointed denunciation many ef the flock complained bitterly. But Brigham.only increased the flow of his. wrath upon them. "You need," aaidtfce* "to have it rain pitchforks, tines* downward, from this pulpit, Sunday after Sunday." Still, there Were rebellious Saints to object, and, as Brigham drew the lines of his wrath tighter, these became more prominent in the community. When they voiced their discontent, they angered the priesthood. But when they indicated their purpose to leave the valley, as many soon did, they gave alarm. An exodus must be prevented at any cost, and so the priesthood let it be known that mjgrfr tions from the valley would be censlds <ored m aotals* Has than apostasy. In B*1g«*aVs own Words: "The moment 41 tmm ttejgenvto leave this people, w i s ewt at? tresn every object that is desirable in time or eternity. Every possesion and object of affection' will be taken from those who forsake the truth, and their identity will eventually cease." But, as the reform wave swept on, it became apparent that tftesevwords had been considered merely figurative by many who were about to seek homes outside the valley. Prom every side news came privately that this family or that was preparing to leave. And. so it came about that the first Sunday Joel Rae was able to walk to the tabernacle, still weak and wasted and trembling, he heard a- sermon from Brigham which made him question his own soul in an agony of terror. For, on this day, was boldly preached, for the first timmia Zion, something which had never before been more than whispered among the highest elect,—the doctrine of bloodatonement-— of human sacrl&ce. Under his discourse JoeYjRae sat terrified, with a bloodies face, cowering a« he had niade ejther* to cower six weeks before. The words seemed to carry his own preaching to its rightful conclusion; but now how changed was hjs world? ~ a whirling, sickening chaofiof sin and^ remorse. As&e listened to Brlgham's words, picturing theM>k>od oJ th*. sinner smoking oe the ground, h|e thougMs fled back «n that night,—that sight of wondenus light and warmth, the last he could remember before the great blank came. Now the votoe of Brigham came to him again: w Und eln*os* all things are by the law purged with blood; and without Jstfieitlta* of.hiood tt .-ftp remission T" Then the service ended-, and he saw Bishop Wright pushing toward him through the, crowd. "Well, well, BrotheiSj,Rae--*iyou; do look peaked, for sure! But yoifftpick up fast enough, and just in time, too. Lord? what won't Brother Brigham do when the Holy Ghost gets a strangleholt 0*1 him? Now, then," he added, In a lower tone, "if I ain't mistaken, there'sjgoing to be some work for the 8onspf Dan!" ' s' " whither al the aspirations e* his~s<mi njgedhtm. - ^ ^ ^ ; ...- •!'••' And then.^l in a day or in a night, though he had seen never » tunl in the road4, though he had* gone a true end straight course, suddenly he had looked jup to find lie was headed the opposite way. After facing his goal so long, he was now going from ft—and never a turn! It was the wretched' paradox of a dream. - The day after Brigbam's sermon on blood-atonement, there had been a meeting la the Historian's' office, proaided over by Brigham. And here for the first time Joel Rae found he was no longer looked upon as one too radical Somewhat dazedly, too, he realized at this, close range the severely practical aspect* of much that he had taught in theory. It was strange, almost unnerving, to behold bit own teachings naked of their pulpit rhetoric; to find his long-cherished ideals materialized by literal-minded, practical men. He heard again the oath he had sworn, back on the river-flat: "I will assist in executing all the decrees of the First President, Patriarch, or President of the Twelve, and I will causa all who speak evil of the Presidency or Heads of the Church to die the death of dissenters or apostates—" And then he had heard the business of the meeting discussed. Decisions were reached swiftly, and orders given in words that were few and plain. Even had these orders been repugnant to him, they were not to be questioned; they came from an infallible priesthood, obedience to which was the first essential to his soul's salvation; and they came again from the head of an organization to which he was bound by every oath he had been taught to hold sacred. But, while they left him faith' bad provided -Glean geq£*nts for her sinful husband/and the appointed executioners du§\>hJs gjnm'"^The* Vent for him a^ iidnigfeu By *f^ aide Of tike grave they had let him; *-^—«'--* n^HHwtNgntil"ifc*,'">1 u**°* 'beep cut by a ttmm *wdi JMUift was held' so that grave, thus floe to the _ _ _ _ _.,.__. -^- -. obeying instructions, «*jiaounciH that her husband had gone to California, . Then the soul o* William Paxrisii,^* Springville, waa saved. to eternal glory; also thejaoul of his son, Beneon. For both of these sinful ones were on the verge of apostasy; had plotted, indeed, and made secret pre> araUons to leave the valley, all ef which were discovered by church emissaries, fortunately for the eternal welfare of the two seat concerned. Yet a few years later, when the hated Gentiles had gained some shadow of authority in the new Zion, their minions were especially bitter aa to this feat of mercy, seeking, indeed, to indict the performers of i t Aa to various persona who met death while leaving the valley, opinion was divided on the question ef their ultimate salvation. For it waa announced concerning these, as their bodies were discovered from time to time, that the Indian* had killed them. It was now that Joel Rae became conscious that he was facing directly away from the glory he had so len& sought and suffered for. Though as yet no blood for Israel had been, shed in his actual presence, he had attended the meetings of the Sons of Dan, and was kept aware of their operations. It seomed to him in after years that his faculties had at this time been In trance. He was seized at length with an Im- -v | CHAPTER XIV. How the Souls of Apostates Were 8aved. The Wild Ram of the Mountains mad spoken to-day; there was work at i hand for the Sons of Dan. When his Witness at last came to Joel Rae, he tried vainly to recall the working of his mind at this time; to remember where he had made the great turn— where he had faced about For, once, he knew, he had been headed the way h * wfched.tp to, a long, plain road, reaching ilajigH frwaei tan Ait -Which Wife Did Von Uy-* "dazed;- disconcerted, and^puzsled, he was by no means certain that they were repugnant. They were but the \ ierfffftte ex*enjft»^oJ TA turning* since childhood, and of his own preachings . In custody at Kayesville, 25 miles north of Salt Lake City, were six men who had been-arrested by church authority while on4 their way east from California. They were suspected of being Federal spies. The night following the meeting which Joel Rae had attended, these prisoners were attacked while they slept. Two were killed at once; two more after a brief struggle; and the remaining two the following day, after thwy had been pursued through the night. The capable Bishop Wright declared in confidence to Joel Rae that it reminded him of old days at Nauvoo. The same week was saved Rosmas Anderson, who had incurred rejection from Israel and eternal wrath by his misbehavior. Becoming submissive to the decree of the Church, when it was made known; to him by certain men who came in the night, it was believed that his atonement would suffice to place him once more in the household of faith. He had asked but half a day to prepare for the solemn ceremony. wife; rags***** *«t 4ta* ta^tfco. pulse to be away from 1* *U* A s *&* days went by with their tragedies, he became half wild, with restlessness nni I Jtrangedfeaf of •hwaeif.^aa spite of his lifelong training, he knew there was wrong in the air. He could not question the decrees of the priesthood, but this much became clear to hi mf,—that only one thing could carry with it more. poaaibiUeies of evil than this course of the Church toward dissenters— and that waa to doubt that Brigham Young's voice > waa aa the voice of God. Not yet could he bring himself to this. But the unreasoning desire to be away became so strong that he knew he must yield to it. 'Turning this in.his mind one day he met a brother Elder, a man full of zeal who had lately returned from a mission abroad. There had been, he said, a great outpouring of the spirit in Wales. "And what a glorious day has dawned here," he continued. "Thank God, there is a way to save the souls of the blind! That remindajme—•have ybn heard of the saving wmfc+Brather Pixley was obliged tp do?"

But you think it over, and talk to me about it when yon come back. It's high time yon waa building up your thrones and dominions in the Kingdom." He started south the next day, riding down between the two^mojmtain ranges that bordered the valley, atopping at each settlement, breajhjng more freely, resting more eaafty, an each day took him farther away. Yet, when he closed his eyes, there, like an echo, waa the vision of a woman's face with ebining eyes and lips,—a vision that after a few seconds waa washed away by a great wave of t*od. : - . - . ' But after a few days; certain bits of news caught up with him that happily drove this thing from his eight for a time by sarring within hi* all his old dread of Gentile persecution. First be heard that Parley Eratt, the Archer* of Paradise and one of the Twelve Apostles, had been fojjtyy murdered back in Arkansas whireseeking to1 carry to their mother the children of his ninth wife, The. father of tfaese ^children, so his informant reported, had waylaid and shot him. Then came rumors of alarge wagon* train going south through- Utah on to way to California.

Yon see, Brother Pixley came back with me, after doing great works abroad. Naturally, he came full of IOYO, for his wives. But he hjid been herd only a few days when' he became convinced that one of them had forgotten hlmfe something m her manner made him suspect it, for she was a woman of singularly open, almost recklessly open, nature. Then a good neighbor came and* told him' that one night, while on .hie way for the doctor, he had seen this woman take leave of her lover—had seen the man, whom he could not recognize, embrace her at partings He taxed her with this, and she at once confessed, though protesting that she had not sinned, save in spirit You can imagine his grief, Brother Rae, for he had loved the woman* "Well, after taking counsel from Brigham, he talked the matter over with her very .calmly, telling her thav-enjess her blood smoked upon'the groundV she would be cast aside in eternity. She t-eallf had spiritual aspiratipna, it j*ems, for she consented to meet'the ordeal. Then, of course, it wanoieoessary to learn from ber.tpe name of the man—and when *aH was ready $ r the sacrifice, JWotherPiaJey commanded her to jsake. it known." "Tejkime which of Brother Pixley's wive* ft was." Heieduld feel the Tittle cool bends of sweat apoh his. forehead.

Then, by her willing sacrifice, she would have gone direct to the circle of the Gods and Goddesses; but now, dying as she.did, her soul must be lost " "Which wife did you say " "The fifth—she that was Mara Cavan—but, dear me, Brother Rae! you Bhould not be out so soon! Why, man, you're weak as a cat! Come, I'll walk with you as far as your house, and you must lie- abed again until you are stronger. I can understand how you wished to be up as soon as possible; how proud you must feel that your preaching has led to this gloriour awakening and made it possible to save the souls of many sinful ones—but you must be careful not to Overtax yourself." Four days later, a white-faced young Elder applied to Brigham for permission to go to. the settlements on the south. He professed to be sick, to have suffered a relapse owing to incautious -exposure so soon after his long illness. He seemed, indeed, not only to be.weak, but to be much distressed and torn in his mind. Brigham was gracious enough to accord the desired permission, adding that the young Elder could preach the some of whom were said to he boasting that they had helped to expel the Saints from Jackson county in that Btafe. Also in this train were reported to be several men front Arkansas who had been implicated in the assassination of Apostle Pratt But news of the crowning infamy method him the following day,—news that had put out all thought of his great sin and* bis bloady secret, news of a thingso_. monstrous that.he was unable' to give it credence until it had been confirmed by other comers from ^reached him lag out of the spired hfc .tajeaJ Jme, lof..various' deedt v**~4 reformation* and1 *^ tile* treatment which various Federal officers were said to have received, had decided that rebellion existed in the Territory of Utah. He had appointed a successor to Brigham Young as governor, so the report ran, and ordered an army to march to Salt Lake City for the alleged purpose of installing the new executive. Three days later all doubt of the truth of this story was banished. Word then came that Brigham was about to declare martial law, and that he had promised that Buchanan's army should never enter the valley. Now his heart beat high again, with something of the old swift fervor. The Gentile yoke was at last to be thrown off. War would come, and the Lord would surely hold them safe while they melted away the Gentile hosts. He reached the settlement of Pa rowan that night, and when they told him there that'the wagon-train coming south—their ancient enemies who had plundered and butchered them in Jackson county—waa to be cut off before it left the basin, it seemed but right to him, the just vengeance of Heaven upon their one-time despoilers, and a fitting first act in the war drama that was now to he played. (TO BE CONTINUED.) Was Not Worth the Trouble Irishman Dtdnt Want Whole Town Tern Up to Find Watch. Kid Gleason, of the Philadelphia National league team, was telling his friends a little story on a Hibernian friend. The kid and his friend had attended a boxing bout and when leaving the building the Irishman discovered that his watch was gone. The sergeant of police promised to "leave no stone unturned" hi the effort to recover the timepiece. Next day. in walking down street with his friend, Gleason pointed to some men who were engaged in some excavating work. By chance, the sergeant to whom Gleason and the Irishman had reported the loss was watching the men work. "Great operation, isn't it?" the ballplayer asked. "Yis, it is, indade. Phat's it all ferr asked Pat. * "Why, don't you remember that the police sergeant said he would leave no stone unturned to get back your watch? See, there he is now directing the work." The kid's friend from the old sod was amased, and, walking up to the sergeant said: "I thank yea very much, sirgeaat, but if yet is going to tear up the whole town, let the watch go to the devil. It's not worth the trouble." Fruits and Vegetables. The term "vegetable" has reference to the whole or any part of a plant cultivated especially with reference to use at the table. But the use of the word "vegetable" doesn't always depend upon cooking, for celery is a vegetable, and apples are fruit, whether eaten raw or cooked. One would suppose the tomato to be entitled to the term fruit, for the method of its raising resembles that of fruit But it is usually called vegetable whether eaten raw or cooked in spite of its appearance. The quince is so fruitlike in appearance—so resembling apples, pears, etc.—that it persists in being called fruit, though eaten only when cooked. r ~" Sometimes the vegetable is e< bud as with eahjages and brussels sprouts; leanejr/hs spinach; stems above groune\* ••• naparagus; stems enlarged (tubers) underground, as common potatoes, or roots, as sweet potatoes, beets and carrots.—St. Nicholas. *:'' *-&.> ? :&? ^M ...> *V-T- . fc" •mtr 'V-- 7 • • ' * *n? •V. - m- • • % "J»IHi<»iHl /¾ Tri-1?!'" ••!'! , • iii ww inn iii uiietwiiwi^Mii i,j n i I,,, ^^ii ^iiniixi ,, .I, , i r»ito»>yg; £i wk»j* §i*p»t •e ' » • Fi L. fVN DREWS & CO.

It is impossible tor us who live in this commercial age to underst.ind how much of the cavalier spirit at that time remained, though it tllcUertHl like a candle before going out It was in the fifties that Helolse Thibadeaux/ a young creole of Louisiana, while attending a garden ^arty In New Orleans lost a fan that tome one of ber ancestors bad received as u mark of favor from the king of France. • diligent search was made, but the fan was not recovered. Id las Thibadeaux was very much exercised over the loss and in a moment of Impulse said to several gentlemen who stood about her discussing the probable whereabouts of the fan, "I will give to whoever finds it—1 will give"- "Yourself?" asked one of the men. "Yes, and my fortune." The words were no sooner uttered than the lady regretted them as foolish. Besides, in those times they were more liable to be taken seriously than they would now be, and a lady would feel it to be more Incumbent upon her to stand by them. The man who had made the suggestion, Albert Mason, was a suitor of hers—a suitor she had no Intention of acceptlug—imd am >ng the men lu the group was Henry Du Pont, whom she felt very much inclined to accept. The reason she aad not done so was because he had not asked her, and the reason he had not asked her was because she owned by Inheritance several sugar plantations, while he was poor. Possibly she had fallen in with Mason's suggestion In order to give Du Pont a chance to win ber by finding her fan. There would at least be an exciting rival search between him and Mason. When the next evening Du Pont call ad oa Miss Thlbadeaux. sheriupposlng be had come to bring her fan, met h' n, with a throbbing heart When he fail ad to apeak of the matter, she^sald impatiently: "My fan-has it been found?" "It will be found," he replied sententlously. A servant entered with the fan aud a note from Mason saying: "I claim the tlrst part of the reward. The sec ond, your fortune, 1 do not claim." Miss Thlbadeaux was vexed. Having done one foolish thing, she proceed ed to re-enforce it by doing another. "I will give myself," she said excitedly, "to the man who will prevent my having to break and yet not keep my promise." "And then," said Du Pont, "you will give yourself to the man who will enable you to break honorably with the new winner." "The next winner shall receive the reward, and it shall be given willingly." It was the averted face rather than the words that gave him her meaning. He understood it perfectly, but with out a word *f reply left her and went to the rooms of Albert Mason. "Mason," he said, "you certainly are not going to take an advantage of Miss Thlbadeaux in the matter of her fan?" Mason looked surprised "What Is tonf. to you?" lie asked.

Show* Work of-Two Boards. The annual report of the state tax commission and board of railway assessors, has been filed with GOT. Warner. It reviews the work of the two boards for the year. It gives an interesting tabulation, of the railroad and state taxes for the years that the ad valorem tax law has been in effect i to show that now the sum paid annual* ly by the railroads is 103 per cent of the state tax levied each year. Under the specific tax system, when the railroads paid as taxes a certain per* centage of its earnings, this amounted to only 41 per cent, of the state tax average for a number of years. From the standpoint of revenues, therefore, the commission declares' the ad valorem, law to be a success. The commission' asks for an extension of its powers of review of assessments and a change in the law, for the assessment of express companies as heretofore announced. Jailey fleeted Senator.

Cotton, of Escanaba, as a member of the state board of education is announced at- the executive office. He takes the place made vacant by the election of L. L. Wright as superintendent of public instruction, and continues in office until his successor is chosen at the coming spring election. The appointment gives him the prestige that will probably cause him to be nominated at the Republican state convention. Dr. Cotton is a graduate of the state university, a former member of the school board of Escanaba, and a leading business man of that section. His appointment was in the charies against Semite Lunacy in ItRn^ie. Declaring that ane person In every 90 in Cook county; Illinois, is mentally unsafe and requires watching, the state board of charities will present Its biennial report to Gov. Deneen, Indorsing the establishment at Kankakee of a training school for doctors employed in the different detention hospitals in the state., . While Cook county contains the larger number of persons liable to insanity than any other part of the state, the general average for Illinois Is one in every 100, or a total of 58,000 persons who are liable at any moment to become insane. Must -Be Fair. The president told some Oklahoma visitors to the White House that unless the constitutional convention of Oklahoma modifies the proposed provision relating to, railroads and makes it conform to the constitution of the United States, he would not approve it. One of the provisions, it is said, to which the president objects, is that preventing railroads employing help to protect their property in case of a 'strike and to guard their trains. The /proposed provision regarding railroads Jias been reported to the convention by the committee on railroads, but has not yet been acted on. law which-he understands will be sat isfactory to the German Lutheran ministers and teachers, and it is claimed \ -will tend toward the advancement of \ t h e educational Interests of the state. TThis amendment will necessitate instruction in the parochial schools corresponding (o that of the first eight grades in the [>ublie schools, and it is jbelleved this will have the effect of jin theae schools. Increase in Railway Stats Tax. During the four years from 1898 to ,1901 the railroads of the state paid $5,173,036 in taxes, while the state tax assessed for the period was $12,629,- :333. From 11'0'J to 19M,*4iKtntfvBrthe raltaoad taxation was $13,901,721, as against a state tax for the same period of $13,502,21". In the first period the railroad tax was 11 per cent, of the •state fax. while in the last four-year period[phe railroad tax exceeded the amount of'the state tax.

Labor Commissioner McLeod has had a comprehensive canvass made of the employment conditions prevailing' in the larger mercantile establishments of the state, those stores where ten or more persons are employed being included in the classification, {lengthening the courses now pursued [There were 359 such stores inspected, r- •• 48 more than in 1905. They were employing 13,593 people, an increase of 1,579. Of the employes 8,973 were males and 4,620 women and girls. The average daily wages recerved by all employes were six cents less than in 1905, but their hours of work averaged *2i minutes a day less. It was shown that in every instance the male employes received higher wages than women and girls employed at the same labor, the difference being mor< marked than In 1905. Monroe Gets in Ahead. Senator Kline got the jump or/ the 'Custer raonu ueut commission by introducing a bill asking for $40,000 to erect a mo;mmeut at Monroe. The Custer commission has been figuring on asking foi $1.00,000 to erect a monument on the grounds of the capitol, and Senator Fyfe was to introduce such a bill. Let Thtm Fight It Out. Representative^Monroe -bears his honors modestly as the chairman of the committee on city corporations. Each of his four colleagues on the committee represents a city which will have more or less business to transact in the way of charter changes before the legislature adjourns sine die. Suggested charter changes always breed antagonism, and so Representative Monroe has quietly decided that he will sit back and let his colleagues make their own fights when bills affecting the interests, of their own "cities come up., v t. SIMPLICITY IN HOMES IS NOW T H E T S T V U . Simplicity in the decoration of homes is now the present fashion and when ene enters the mansion, of a nabob in anticipation of feasting his eyes tupon;,'rare tapestries and beautifully carved and '-upholstered furniture and wondrous works •of art he Is usually doomed to disappointment. The present fad for having rooms so bare and •empty that they look almost unfurnished is a physical result*-brought about by a condition that lias manifested itself before in different forms. Gothainites are uervous, hurried and crowded; and for that reason they have finally realized the -importance of Having their homes as restful in effect and as homelike as possible. Less than a decade ago the average New York millionaire's home was au institution to look at more than a place in which to dwell in comfort. These same persons now want to have a feeling of repose, at least when they get to their homes. They have gradually learned that the restful influence of a room is the result of its furnishing and decoration. Ten years ago the average New York drawing room was packed with furniture anit bric-a-brac such as to make a. person who was already nervous more fidgety. . At that time there was not a chair or a sofa that was not deco-- rated with frithev a flinger or a draper. The fllnger was thrown carelessly >over the arm pf the chair, while, the draper was usually festooned in grace* *ul curves. Then pictures covered the walls with no regard to homogeneity 'In color or subject, and apparently meant to match, if possible, so far as size is concerned. Then there was the terrible mantel lambrequins that looked not unlike a bathrobe and many other such decorations that were as old and just about as graceful as Mary Jane's top-knot. Now these fussy rooms have gone and it is not uncommon to see but a half-dozen mission chairs, a buffet and table of the same type and a few simple decorations to match in the dining-rooms of some of the swellest Fifth Avenue homes. Of course, the furniture is rich and costly, but it gives the rooms that sweet charm suggestive of the simple life.

Presumably fearing that some Philadelphia lawyer might appear and declare that the meat inspection provision tacked onto the agricultural appropriation bill last year was not permanent legislation, the house Saturday reanacted the provision without a dissenting voice. The only change was the insertion of a word so as to authorize the secretary of agriculture to "hereafter" inspect meats and meat products. ^ e p i ^ e e t t t a ^ e ' d ^ J i P ^ e i i e i ^ e e , wants to get aqdarely on record In" ffavor of the president for his action in'dismissing'1 three companies o t toe »tti infantry from the mHltary service of the United -State*, lie said In the-lower bran oh of congress that by a unanimous vote of the Tennessee legislature the president's course was Indorsed, and he had therefore intro* duced a joint resolution, comr.ending the president la his position. He said the resolution had been referred to; the military affaire committee which, he believed, would act upon the resolution. If not, he would aak that the committee be discharged, and he would bring the whole matter before the house for discussion. "The action of the president was .not taken," asserted Mr. Sims, "as a matter of punishment, but as a matter of discipline." He said he had no patience with the statement that ten guilty men should escape rather than .one innocent man should suffer un> (Justly. Need Feed and Fuel. Conditions arising from a shortage of fuel and of food supplies continue to be bad in portions.of North Dakota; according to dispatches received at the interstate oommerce commission. A t the same time other dispatches show the railroads are bending their efforts to reach the places suffering from the want of these necessities of life. Mayor James P. Dougherty, at Park River, *f. D., complains that the Great Northern railroad is not making any effort to move trains over the lines reaching there. The city is entirely out of coal. There has been no mail for six day*. The weather Is fine. Prompt action, the mayor urges, should be taken to compel the delivery of fuel and mail. A dispatch from Sherwood, N. D., dated January 25, says the place is entire/y without fuel of any kind. Three cars of coal for Sherwood, It is asserted, were confiscated at Mohawk. There has been no train for a week.

Harry Thaw's defense depends on a tiny note which Thaw is said to have intercepted while it was being passed by Stanford White to Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw in the Cafe Martin four hours before the tragedy in Madison Square Garden. Witnesses for the defense will state that Harry Thaw learned through this •note that Stanford White was still seeking to renew relationship with Svelyn despite a pledge that, he would [ c>t do so. It will be developed that Thaw had exacted a promise from -White not to annoy.her with bis attentions and his counsel will endeavor to show that when Thaw had learned sire to destroy the man who, in his opinion, was seeking out his wife.

The French clerical troubles have greatly preyed upon* his mind, with the result that he refuses to eat at times and in fact, he confessed to his physician lately that he eats but one meal a day.

When one wants to use a tool he seldom has time to fix it, and if it must be repaired the work is usually done as quickly as possible with an, eye only to the wojk immediately, at band. - {Mows may now be cleaned off and oiled, hoes and matteoka sharpened, scythes ground, etc. Then there are always bolts to tighten, fracture* and4 breaks to patch up, and adjustments of various kinds to make. IJ any machine needs repairs that must be ordered from a distance this should be done during the winter and the machine made ready for use. If this is neglected now, remarks Farm and home, you mas^forget all about it ontill you want to use & and then you will be in a hole.

If they are left, as many tools1 are, out In the weather, they will be in bad shape when you go to use them. So if you have no tool shed it would be. a good winter job to build one. WHAT TO FEED WITH CORN. Much Rich Land Goes to Waste Because This Work Is Not Done. Matfy 'findFafnTd^amr unprofitable lands can 1be drained wettror at least considerably improved, BhouM yob >gtfy spend a day's work in scraping out ditches, with- an ordinary twohorse scraper. Some of the ditches need not necessarily be wide nor deep. It haB been estimated that from one to thirty per cent of certain sections of good farming lands in some sections of the Northwest need draining. Some of this undrained land is reasonably productive in growing slough grass, which in many cases serves as feed for cattle in the winter, but a large fraction of these lands Ho idle and are hotbeds for the propagation of weeds' and undesirable insects. The soil in sloughs and smalt swampa is usually fertile and rich in plant food, due largely to the decay of plant life, which has been accumulating there year after year. It is this land that should be brought Into .condition for, the growing of crops. It will support' plant growth better than the adjoining higher lands whose fertility has been considerably depleted by constant crop^lng^, ,$Vhenv drained well' these' lands make admirable ^fields for'grasses, such as timothy and millet. grasss, also fodder corn. There is no work, of this kind'done If done at proper time* and place hut what will easily pay for the., expense in' the raising of the 4xst few crops lvfrom'iandsi—J, # YojQi professor' of agriculture, Gustaybus AdoJphos College. Missouri Experiment Station Proves Thtlt Linseed Oil !• Best. *-\ s ——— That some4 other feed should be used with corn to secure the best results in pig feeding is known by ail practical feeders. The gains are better than on a pure corn ration, and if the. o4her food Is well chosen the gains may be made jat lower cost. In a test at the Missouri experiment station a comparison of wheat, middlings and other .purchased feeds used with corn meal was made. With corn at 25c a bushel it would be an even thing so far as the cost of gain is concerned-, whether corn be fed alone or with oil meal at $30 per ton: In these tests, linseed oil meal proved*"to* be better than wheat middlings ' as a food to use w|th corn. The oil meal ration r was ^so much, more palatable than \the middlings, that much more of it was. eaten daily. They made more rapid gains and seemed to thrive better upon this feed. To be equal to oil meal at $30 per ton, middlings would have to be bought at from $14 to $15 per ton. As oil meal is usually cheaper than $30 in Missouri and middlings worth $15 or more, these tests show that linseed oil meal is one of the best feeds to use with corn. AWFUL ATTACKt Of ^AM*.

H BBOtild Prove the Best Kind of Fee4 t; % • When Warm* There la 4m impression among some fanners that the feeding of skim' milk warm from th«' separator is injurious to pigs. Prof. William Deltrich, of the Illinois' experimental static*, writing on this matter, says that there Is no reason why it should cause trouble since warm milk is the natural* food of pigs.- It may be that the scouring and running down in flesh that is sometimes observed is caused by sudden changes in feed; such .as, for instance, change from cold sour skimmilk to warm fresh skim-milk. The skim-milk in either form is good feed, but it will not do to- change from one to the other very suddenly. Another cause of the' trouble may be that the pigs are being fed too much. Sometimes people think that when the cream is taken out of the milk there is not. much left that is of any value and young animals are fed very liberally and often overfed, and this becomes a very serious matter. The sklm-milk has relatively more protein than whole milk and a comparatively small excess of protein in the system will very likely bring about digestive troubles. SAVE THE WOMEN.

Wheto he came back they told aim that the train of Missourians had passed thiraugh Par0w*a and o& to t^e south. He attended a' military council heU tba^Wening in the meeting- house. * ThreeJTdays of reflection, while it had not cooled the anger he felt toward these members of the mob that had so brutally wronged nib people, had sUgbtfy cooled his ardor for aggressive Warfare.' / 1 The following Tuesday he continued south to Cedar Jgity, the most; populous of the southern settlements. Here he learned of the campaign's progress. Brigham's courier had preceded the train on its way south, bearing written orders to the faithful to hold no .dealings with its people; to sell them neither forage for their stock nor food for themselves. They had, it was reported, been much distressed as a' result of this order, and their stock was greatly weakened. At Cedar City, it being feared that they might for want of supplies be forced to halt permanently so near the settlement that it would be inconvenient to destroy them, they were permitted to buy 50 bushels of wheat and to have it and some corn the Indians had sold to them ground at the mill of Major Ivee. As Joel's informant, the fiery Bishop Klingensnitth, remarked, this was hoi so generous as it seemed, since, while it wewtd serve to decoy them on their way toward San Bernardino, they would never get out of the valley with it The train had started on. but the animals were so weak that ijiree days had been reouired to reach Iron creek. 20 miles beyond, and two mote days to «reach Mountain Meadows, 15 miles further south. Here at daybreak the morning before. Kllagensmlth told him, a band of Piede Indians, under Lee's direction, bad atacked the train, killing and wounding a number of the men. It had been hoped, explained Klingensniith, that the train would be destroyed at once by the Indians, thus artMaf may call upon the< militia; tat tb* eenigrants had behaved with sue* esTeetr?enes that, the Indians were unable to complete th$K task. They had corralled their wagSaartk dug a rifle-pit,in, the center, a M retnrned the Are, killing one India&jud wounding two of the chiefs. The siege was being continued.

The ride was long, but not Ions enough for his mind to clear It was still clouded: with doubts and* questionings and fears when they at last saw the flaring of many fires with figures loitering or moving busily about them. As they came" nearer, a strange, rhythmic throbbing crept to his ears; nearer stilt, he resolved it into the slow, regular beatings of a flat-toned drum. The measure, deliberate, in- •cstart, changeless,—the Bame tones, the aame intervals,—worked upon his •trained nerves, at flrBt soothingly and the* as a pleasant stimulant.

"Why, all but the very smallest children, of course." "Are there children here?" Lee answered: "Oh, a fair sprinkling—about what you'd look for in a train of a hundred and thirty people. The boys got two of the kids yesterday; the fools had dressed them up in white dresses and sent' them out for a bucket of water. You can see their bodies lying over there this side of the spring.''

"Better* not inquire how far back that order started, Brother Rae—not of me, anyway. "But women and children " "The great Elohim has spoken from the heavens, Brother Rae—that's enough for me. I can't put my human standards against the revealed will of God." "But women and children " He repeated the words as if he sought to tween the ranges of hills, was a circle of covered wagons wheel to wheel. In the center of this a pit had been dug, and here the besieged were finding such protection as they could from the rifle-fire that came down from the hills on either side. Even now he could see Indians lying in watch for any who might attempt to4 escape. The camp had been attacked on Monday morning after the wagons had moved a hundred yards away from the spring. It was now Friday. For four days, therefore, with only what water they could bring by had held their own in the pit. When it grew still lighter he descried; out <m>his left near the spring, two snots of white close together, and fore^ of the two little girls sent for water. At that instant, the chanting and the beat of the drum stopped, and m the silence a flood of light seemed to shine in upon his mind, showing him in something of its true aspect the thing they were about to do. Xot clearly did he see it. for he was still torn and dased—and not in its real proportions, moreover; for he saw it against the background of bis teaching from the cradle; the murder of their Prophet, the persecution of the Saints, the outrages put upon his own family, the mi.rder of his father, and the death of his mother; the coming of an army upon them now to repeat these persecutions; the. reported offenses of this particular lot of Gentiles.

He was snort and plump, with a full, round, ingenuous face. He was chosen, so said Klingenamith. for bis plausible wayjs. . He could look, right at you when he said anything; and the moment needed a man of this talent He was to enter the camp and say to the people that tbe Mormons bad come to save, them; that on giving up their arms they would be safely conducted to Cedar City, there to await a proper time for continuing their Journey. From tbe bill to tbe west cf the besieged camp they watched tbe plausible Bateman with bis flag of truce meet one of tbe emigrants who came out also with a whiter, flag, and saw them stand talking a little time. Bateman then came back around the end of the bill that separated the two camps. His proposal bad been gratefully accepted. Tbe besieged emigrants were In desperate straits; their dead were unburied In tbe narrow enclosure, and they were suffering greatly for want of water. Major Higbee, in command of the militia, now directed Lee to enter the camp and see that the plan was carried out With him went two men with wagons. Lee was to have them load their weapona into one wagon, to separate tbe adults from the children and wounded, who were to be put into the other, and then march the party out As Lee approached the corral its occupants swarmed out to meet him,— gaunt men, unkempt women and children, with the look of hunted animals in their eyes. Some of the men cheered feebly; some were silent and plainly distrustful. But the women laughed and wept for joy aw tbey crowded about their deliverer; and wide-eyed children stared at L>im in a friendly way, understanding bat little of it all except that the newcomer was a desirable person. It took Lee but a little time to overcome the hesitation of the few suspicious ones. The plan he proposed was too plainly their only way of escape from a terrible death. Their animals had been shot down or run off so that they could neither advance nor retreat. Their ammunition was almost gone, so that they could not give battle. And, lastly, their provisions were low, with no chance to replenish them; for on the south was the most to be areaded of all American deserts, while on the north they had for some reason unknown to themselves been unable to buy of the abundance through which they passed. Arrangements for the departure were quickly completed under Lee's supervision. In one wagon were piled tbe guns and pistols of tbe emigrants, together with half a dozen men who had been wounded in the four days' fighting. In the other wagon a score of the smaller children were placed, some with tear-stained faces, some crying, and some gravely apprehensive. At Leeks command the two wagons moved forward. After these the women followed, marching singly or in pairs; some with little bundles of their most precious belongings; some carrying babes too young to be sent ahead in the wagon. A few had kept even their older children to walk be- »|< 9 ' 1 side them* fearing tone evll—fti? knew not what ; , , \>„ - , .

Tbe woman, looking anxiously back over her shoulder to the line of men, spoke warning* ly- to tbe boy as the line moved slowly forward. "Take her other hand, and stay close. I'm afraid something will happen-- that man who came is not honest man. I tried to tell them, they wouldn't believe me. Keep her .hand in yours, and if anything doe* happen, run right back there and try to find her father. Remember now, just as if she were your own little Bister." The boy answered stoutly, with shrewd glances about for possible danger. "Of course 111 stay by her. I wouldn't run away. If I'd only had A gun,*' he continued, in tones of regretful enthusiasm, "I know I could have shot some of those Indians—but these, what do you call them?—Mormons,— they'll keep the Indians away now." "But remember—don't leave . my child, for I'm afraid—something warns me." Farther back the others had now fallen in, so that the whole company was in motion. The two wagons were in the lead; then came the women; and some distance back of these trailed the line of men. When the latter reached the plape where the column of militia stood drawn up in line by the roadside, they swung their hats and cheered their deliverers; again and again the cheers rang in tones that were full of gratitude. As they passed on, an armed Mormon stepped to the side of each man and walked with him. thus convincing the last doubter of their sincerity in wishing to guard them from any unexpected attack by the Indians. In such fashion marched the long, loosely extended line until the rear had gone some two hundred yards away from the circle of wagons. At the bead, the two wagons containing the children and wounded had now fallen out of sight over a gentle rise to the north. The women also were well ahead, passing at that moment through a lane of low cedars that grew close to the road on either side. The men were now stepping briBkly. sure at last of the honesty of their rescuers. Then, while all promised fair, a call came from the head of the line of men,—a clear, high call of command that rang to the very rear of the column: "iBraei, dq your duty!1' BefeW the faces of the marching men had even shown surprise or questioning, each Mormon had turned and shot the man who walked beside him. The same instant brought piercing screams from the column of women ahead; for the signal hai been gives while they were In the lane of cedars where the Indian allies of the Saints had been ambushed. Shots and screams echoed and re-echoed across the narrow valley, and clouds. of smoke, pearl gray in the morning sun, floated near the ground. The plan of attack had been well laid for quick success. Most of the men had fallen at the first volley, either killed or wounded. Here and there along the all but prostrate line would be seen a struggling pair, or one of the emigrants running toward cover under a fire that always brought him low before he reached it. (TO BE CONTINUED.) Was Not What He Imagined Masher's Ardor Cooled When Lifted Her Veil. Lady An elderly lady who keeps a fashionable school for girls had been paying a call upon friends in East Sixtyseventh street, t-ays the New- York Times. She left their house about ten p. m. to walk home. As she turned into Madison avenue a sudd*n and rather heavy storm broke* A welldressed young man with an umbrella approached her and asked her if she would not come under the shelter he offered. She did so. and at his suggestion took his arm. They walked down the avenue a few blocks and the schwolmistress was surprised to find that her escort was squeezing her arm and murmuring words of amorous intent into her ear. As it was raining very hard and she had no umbrella of her own, she made no protest. The situation struck her as amusing. She is on the shady side of 60 and even her dearest friends would not call her handsome, but she has a figure that a belle of 20 might envy her, and she realized that it wat uhis that had attracted the man, her face being heavily veiled. Reaching her house, she gravely thanked her escort for saving her from a wetting and turned to enter. He urged her not to leave him, suggesting supper and wine and things. "Sir! Who do you think I am?" exclaimed the lady. And she raised her veil under the glare of the electric light. "The devil!" cried the man. hurrying away, after one gjance at the white hair and wrinkled cheeks. Health Benefited by Walking Tow. In hopes that his health would be benefited. Prof. Edwin B.

[Original.] Out; evening soon after the accession of Kin's Charles II. of England a youug girl called at the palace of Whitehall and begged to see the sovereign. She would' uot have succeeded hud it uot been that he was leu\ iu ; to go to the rooms of his mistre >s, I.;idy Castle muiue. Charles, pushing the girl, who was evidently suffering from some great mental strain, asked her what she wanted. "Oh, sire, give me the life of my brother, Arthur Hewer, who Is to be executed tomorrow on Tower hill." Hewer hud fought on the side of the parliament, und upon the restoration certain parties high iu power deemed It expedient that he should be put to death. The king wus uot a bloodthirsty man, but a great admirer of beautiful women. Mary liewer, who was beautiful, gained from him a promise that her brother should be pardoned. Then the king passed on. Mary, delighted, was about to uurry away when a courtier, young Sir^liicbard Vyner, called to her. "You do not know the king," he said. "His majesty intends to grant the pardon he has promised, but he has gone to visit Lady Custlemaiue, and heaven fcnows when he will come away from her. It may be too late to keep his promise or he may forget it. I will do what I can for you by reminding him of it as soon as he comes again." Mary Hewer was greatly cast down at this inforination,Jju:t gained hope at the young man's promise. The next morning she received a message from him saying that the king had not returned to the palace, and he feared he would not return in time to order the pardon sent to the Tower before the hour of execution. Hewer was to he executed at 8 o'clock in the afternoon. In those days all people, the highest and the lowest, attended these executions, for which places were engaged ahead. In a diary of a prominent man who then flour lshed is an entry, "Engaged a place for my wife to see the execution, then went to the office." When the hour for the tragedy came the prisoner was conducted to the scaffold, from whence he looked down upon a sen of upturned faces. There were dukes and bakers and tallow chaudjers. A few minutes before 8 the Tower chaplain offered a short prayer for the prisoner's souh^Pfien as the executioner steppe'iflorward a young man In the canonicals of the Church of England produced an order from James, duke of York (the king's younger brother), that he should be permitted to pray for the condemned man so long as he desired. Tbe young clergyman then knelt and began to pray. A half hour passed, when the lieu tenant of the Tower interrupted the clergyman, reminding him that the spectators were getting Impatient for the execution. The young man drew the duke's order and pointed to the words "as long as he desires." The king's brother was too* high a person age for his order to be disobeyed, so the lieutenant stepped back, ami- the clergyman went on with his prayer. But the clamor became so great thai the lieutenant again interrupted, be;;' ging the clergyman to desist. This time the young man paid no attention to the request. He was kneeling, with one hand on the block, his head sinking lower and lower, his voice becoming fainter and fainter. For nearly two hours lie prrfyed. Then there was a clatter of horse's hoofs heard coming up from the city, and a rider was seen dashing toward the Tower holding aloft a paper. He was Sir Richard Vyner and bore a pardon from the king. As he threw himself from his horse and elbowed his way through the crowd to the scaffold the words died on the clergyman's lips and he sank In a swoon. Both the prisoner—now by the king's order a free man—and Sir Richard, leaving the crowd to mingle shouts of disapproval or approval, turned their attention to the young clergyman whose extraordinary effort at prayer had saved the former's life. Since he could not be at once revived they sent for a coach and, putting him ln it, got in themselves and drove away to the home of the released man. Before they reached it the clergyman opened his eyes and, seeing Hewer beside him, threw his arms about his neck. "Arthur!" "Maryl" Mary Hewer during the morning be fore the execution had conceived the plan, if delay should be necessary, of achieving It by spending time la prayer. She had sent to Sir Richard Vyner asking If he conld get her permission for a clergyman to do so, and the knight, finding the Duke of York, with whom he was a favorite, prevailed on him to give him the order. It was sent to Mary Hewer at the Tower, who, dis guised, had made the prayer. Then Mary turned from her brother to Sir Richard, took his hand ln hers ind, bringing it to her lips, kissed I t "Tell me, I beseee^ 70%" s^e jald, r * • - "something I can do for you. Nbtbmg can requite such a service, but I may show my gratitude." "Nothing now," be replied. "In time I m a y ' a s k uu Inestimable boon." "But why have you done so much for me?" "I saw you at a window long ago, when the king returned and received his welcome from the people. I saw you again at the coronation. I need to i see you no more to know that you are I come down from heaven." j Arthur Hewer became prominent In the naval war against the Dutch, and 1 his Bister became Lady Vyner. i ROSALIB WHITING.

'How now?" said the uncle. "Why so s a d r "I'm nearly down and out," was the reply. "I can't keep food habits, somehow, and I can't save."

" Lafeadlo Hearn's Testimony as te Strength of Japanese Wins. There is no liquor in the world upon, which a man becomes so quickly intoxicated ai Japanese sake (rice wlnel, and yet none of which the effects last so Bhort a time. The intoxication is ple&saat as the effect of opium or hasheesh. It is soft, pleasant, luminous exhilaration, everything becoming brighter, happier, lighter; then you get very sle*;.y. At Japanese dinners it la the iHile.to become*'Slightly exhilarate*! but no't to drink enough to fdfk thickly or wart crooked. The ability to drink at banquets requires practice—long m'acUoe. There afe banquets'of many kinds, and the man who is invited to ono at which extensive drinking may be expected is careful to-start fn upon an empty or almost empty stomach. By not eating one can drink a good deal. The cups are very small and of many curious shapes.' <One ma;j be Expected to empty 50. A quart of sake Is a good deal; two quarts require iron nerves* to stand. But among the Japanese ftere are wonderful drinkers.

He seldom, however, depends upon his own voice. "He hongs to his aid th« trumpet tangoed voice of the press.

Mrs. Goose, or Mother Goose, as she was familiarly called, was the mother-in-law of Thomas Fleet, a Bos ton printer early In the century. When his first child w a s born his mother-in law devoted all her attention to the baby and, it is said, greatly annoyed Pleet by her persistent and not par tlcularly musical chanting of the old English ditties she had heard In her Childhood. The Idea occurred to Fleet of writing down these songs and-publishing them ln book form. The oldest extnnt copy bears the date of 1719. The price marked on the title pag» was "two coppers." This account of the origin of Mother Goose Is di«ore* lted by some critics, who declare that ln 1897 Perrault published "Coutee de ma Mere l'Oye," or "Stories of Mother Goose."

Tbe widely knowu Dr. Da rid Kennedy was graduated from tho medical 'department of Columbia University la -I860; for three years resident Burgeon in the Saterlee U. & Army Hospita I, Philadelp h i a , Pa.; d u r i n g the Civil War was President o f t h e Examining Board for Invalid Soldiers, and acknowledge d one of t h e most successful surgeons in the Government service; member of the Ulster County Medical Society and other scientific and medical associations; for over thirty-five years in active practice of medicine and Burgery In Rondout, N. Y., becoming one of the leading surgeons of the Hudson River Valley, Iiis great ability and skill being undisputed, and bis reputation extending from New York to neighboring states. He was a New York Presidential Elector In 1892, Mayor of his city for two terms and occupied many other public and private positions of trust and honor. It is interesting to learn that in the early days of his large practice he employed a prescription that he termed his "favorite remedy" because it was invariably successful in the treatment of the various cases coming under his care, where a preparation was indlcatedJor the Kidneys, Liver or Blood. In 187$ the demand for this medicine was so great that he decided to place it before the public, and from that time Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy (as it has since been known) has become one of our standard family remedies. The business soon grew to immense proportions and the large laboratories and offices in Rondout stand as positive proof of its wonderful success, due to absolute merit, aided by systematic judicious and honest advertising. The strong point about Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy Is that its cures are permanent, and it will be our pleasure, in subsequent Issues of this paper, to print specific instances of this convincing feature. It is proper to add here that Favorite Remedy is not a "patent" or "secret" medicine, since its composition is given upon request, and it is not a "cure all." It has cured many cases of Kidney, Liver and Blood troubles (and associated ailments) which have been practically abandoned by physicians. It is sold in over 40,000 drug stores in this country at only $1.00 a bottle, or the manufacturers will send it direct and prepay charges if a druggist is not handy. Every year Dr. David Kennedy's Sons, Rondout, N. Y., mail millions of free medical ftooklets and sample bottle (to any one writing for them) to all parts of -the world, this being one of their methods of advertising the merit of this valuable remedy. Used Him at Eraser. The late Dr. Henry Martyn Field some years ago related at a Williams alurxrai dinner a rather amusing incident of his freshman days at college. Being only 12 years old when he entered he had not'reached the point where the natural friction between the big boy and the small boy ceases and he was at particular feud with one of his fellows, a stalwart country youth fresh from the farm. One day young Field went early to the classroom and put upon the big blockboard a very exasperating caricature of his enemy, with his name beneath. When the aggrieved party saw what had been done he said not a word, but catching up his youthful tormentor, he used him as an eraser and after rubbing out the offensive picture quietly took his seat. NO RELIEF FROM ECZEMA For Over Two Years—Patent Medicines, Quack Cures, and Doctors Fall—Cuticura Succeeds. "I was very badly afflicted with ectema for more than two years. The parts affected were my limbs below the knees. I tried all the physicians in the town and some-in the surrounding towns, and I also tried all the patent remedies that I heard of, besides all the cures advised by old women and quacks, and found no relief whatever until I commenced using the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment, and Cuticura Resolvent. In the Cuticura Remedies I found immediate relief, and was soon sound and well. C. V. Beltz, Tippecanoe, Ind., Nov. 15, '05." Also Gives Away Libraries. James J. H. Gregory of Marblehead, Mass., is a rival of Andrew Carnegie in the giving away of libraries. He has been doing this for years. His libraries are smaller than Carnegie's gifts and are givon to small communities, to ministers and educators who cannot afford to purchase them, ginchmg giapafch. F*AB& L. Avraswt, P*b. HNCKNEY, MICHIGAN t J S = 9 E 9 B S RR A Comparison of Wealth. The London Express is unhappy b«» cause of Its discovery that the annual increase in the total wealth of the United States is something like ten times the increase in the wealth of Great Britain. From r British point of view this may be lamentable,- but from no point of vie* can it be regarded as surprising. We have about twice the population of that country, and there is a noticeable difference in the matter of area. Our natural resources in every departmement of productive indButry far exceed those of Great Britain. Her land values, while not absolutely fixed, may be held to have reached the limit of normal expansion, while in our case a variety of influences such as railway development, trolley line extension, irrigation, and an ever increasing demand for the products of the soil, bring idle land under profitable cultivation, and so give it value, and give a greater value to lands already occupied. The American workingman, with his higher wages, declares the New York Sun, can afford better housing than the English workingman, and another important factor in dwelling-house values appears in our vast population of the well-to-do. Japan's Fair Exhibit. When the war with Russia started, in 1904, Japan looked to the Ucited States for sympathy, and received it. Japan had nearly the most extensive and interesting exhibit which was made by any foreign nation at tho St. Louis world's fair of 1904, which was a very effective way of showing her regard for the United States. Her display at the fair was immeasurably larger and finer than that of Russia. By bringing the war with Russia to an end in 1905, President Roosevelt rendered a service of inestimable value to Japan, which the emperor, his peace commissioners at Portsmouth and the press of Tokio and the other Japanese centers have freely acknowledged. Japan has even more interest in maintaining friendly relations with us than we have with her, declares Charles M. Harvey in Leslie's Weekly. The trade between the two countries is growing and it is profitable to each. Her recent war imposed a debt burden which bears with crushing weight on the Japanese people. Japan's natural resources are small. She has an especial need for many years of unbroken peace. Happily, so far as we are concerned, that peace is likely to. be maintained. The Rudeness of Lawyers. Joseph H. Choate . . . tells lawyers that they should be courteous in tbe cross-examination of witnesses. He also expresses the judgment that rudeness and discourtesy hurt tbe lawyers who employ them. Lawyers as a class are not loved. Most men at some time or other have had disagreeable experience with them, and, while they may respect individual lawyers, the feeling toward lawyers in the mass is not one of respect and affection. The badgering of witnesses under cross-examination, which small lawyers delight in and which judges permit when they should not, is an old evil which creates for the badgering lawyers the cordial dislike, not only of the badgered victims, but moat of the laymen who witness the performance. Witnesses in a court of justice are there to assist the court and jury in arriving at the truth. They are not there of their own choice, but come in obedience to the summons of the court. As a rule, says'the Philadelphia Press, the court does not protect them sufficiently from harsh treatment, base insinuations and gross abuse at the hands of the attorney whose client is unfavorably affected by their testimony. Graphophones were used to help th< stenographers during a recent government inquiry in Chicago when the investigators had received orders to forward to Washington a transcript of the testimony at the earliest possible moment. The stenographers took their notes in the ordinary way, and read them to a graphophone. As fast as a cylinder was full, the machine was turned over to a typewriter, who set It to repeating what the stenographer had spoken, and transcribed it on paper. Within 30 minutes after the last witness had ceased speaking the record of the hearing was about completed, ready to be sent to the national capital ELECTION OF UNITED STATES 8ENATOR8 EY DIRECT VOTE. GOVERNOR SAYS IT'S TIME The Work of the LeoHalature as Viewed by the Chief Executive and the Opportunities* RELEASED Elections and Work. Gcv Warner haB declared in favor of* election of United Statea senators by direct vote of the people. He said: "The time is ripe for some legislation that will make political contests of every kind cleaner and one important step in that direction would be to provide for the nomination of United States senators by the primary system upon the plan similar and upon the same day that candidate? for governor, lieutenant governor and congressmen are nomin *ed. There are, I believe, twelve states where such a provision exists. In time I believe United States senators will be selected by the people themselves. "It has been stated that the work of the legislature haa not advanced as far as is usual at this time. It should be remembered that during the first four or five weeks of any session not much important work is accomplished. I believe there Is an opportunity at this session for good, vrholesome legislation and there is a very'general belief that the legislature will fully meet the expectations of the people in this regard. "I have certainly no desire to dictate the course which shall be pursued and will only atate that I shall be glad to co-operate in every W possible with the members o£/both houses in bringing about results which will promote the best interests of our state. I sincerely believe, too, that the more.important matters,in.which the people lire generally interested should be brougbt.un early,arid not left until local legislation is all cared for." > AACha'pter of Accidents, "* i t His fadt caught fn a frog, Fran*1 C rlutchlttfti'a Pere Marquette brakemaar was crushed by a train at Bridgman.

A habit of holding a lighted matoh over the vent of a gasoline tank, from which the highly inflammable fluid had just been emptied, leaving a quantity of gas "which would burn a vivid b^uevflame for a few minutes, finally caused the tragic death of Frank JRoek, in the village of Vriesland. Frank wai .employed in his father's store, and this.frequent feat of lighting the gas in the empty tanks seemed to bold a fascination to him. He had often been cautioned, but became fearless. But the fatal moment came Wednesday afternoon when Frank held the match once too often. There was more gasoline in the tank than he thought. There came a flash, a roar, as the top of the tank blew off and struck the boy, crushing i i s head and killing him. EFFECTIVE MEDICINE FOR LA GRIPPE. Robt. L. Madison, A.

The first gre»t.«pl^^ erf mad shrieks had "quickly dje$ low as if the victims were being smothered; and now could be heard only the single scream of some woman caught In flight,—short, despairing screams, and others that seemed to be cnt short—strangled at their height, " • Joe! Rae found himself on tBe line after the first volley, dfawn by some dread power he could not resist. Yet one look had been enough. He shut his eyes to the Writhing forms, the jets of flame spitting through the fog of smoke, and turned to flee. Then ia an instant—how it had oosse mfctvt he never knew—he was struggling with a man who shouted •4ft name and cursed him,—a dark mat with blood streaming from a wound In Ills throat. He defended himself easily, ,**eli»* hja assailants strength already wiataf. Time after time the man called aim by name and cursed him, now in low tones, as they swayed. Then the Saint whose allotted victim this man had been, having reloaded his pistol, ran up, held it close to his head, fired, and ran back to the line, He felt the man's grasp of his shoulders relax, and his body grow suddenly limp.'as if boneless. He let it down to the ground, looking at last- full upon the face. At first glance it told him nothing. Then a faint sense ,p( its familiarity -pushed up through many old memorlftff^jpinf£lme, somewhere, he "had lafo^TOiWf^ce. -' *5 wide, no^ftffhig, but o^jrulaiveiy, an<4 then hej^thtoel^eftllgatened by soniethiuBrttar-Jfcelr1 fl&mifc ooior>,*--some-.i thing in'the-lt»« of-the brow under the blac^^^j-^rfnfeB^was brought hack tojjflfc, 1 % h W ^ e f a c e of the jaunty ^lU%^'pt«ln^at flauyoo, the man whaJMUjnhtftafaaapel his people, who ha»>*fj»tronteedUfiem with his airs of plift wjpfl-^tlrtMMean who had— It did n^d«oWrtb fym until that inslant— this mim^iras Girnway. In the flash of awful comprehension he dropped, a sickened and nerveless heap, beside the dead man, turning his head on the ground, and feeling for any sign of life at his heart. Forward there, where the yells of the Indians had all but jroplaced the screams of frantic women-^-butchered already perhaps, subjected to he knew not what infamy at the hands of savage or Saint—was the yellow-haired, pink-faced girl he had loved and kept so long imaged in his heart; yet she might have escaped, she might still live—she might ••even not have been in the party. He sprang up and found himself facing a white-haired boy, who held a little crying girl by a tight grasp of her arm,' and who eyed him aggressively. "What did you hurt Prudence's father for? He was a good man. Did you shoot him?" He^setfced the hoy roughly by the shoulder. "Prudence — Prudence— where is she?" •Here." He looked down at the little girl, who still cried. Even in that glance he saw her mother's prettiness, her pink and white daintiness, and the yejlow shine of her hair. "H?r mother, then,—-quick!" The boy pointed ahead. *Vp there—she told me to take care of ..Prudence, and when the Indians came out she made me run back here to look for him."

CHAPTER X V I I . The Host of Israel Qoea Forth to , Rattle. . He went north in answer to the call for soldiers. He went gladly. It promised activity—and company. The day he reached Salt Lake City, Joel Kae was made major of militia. The following day, he attended the meeting at the tabernacle. He need* ed, for reasons he did not fully ex* plain to himself, to receive fresh as* sur&nce of Brigham's infallibility, of his touch with the Holy Ghost, of his goodness as well as his might; to be caught once more by the compelling magnetism of his presence, the flash of his eye, and the inciting tones of his voice. All this he found. Joel Rae was again under the sway of his old warlike feelings. Brigham had revived his fainting faith. He went out into the noise and hurry of war preparations in a sort of intoxication. Underneath he never ceased to be conscious of the dreadful specter that.would not be gone—that stood impassive and immovable as one of the mountains about him, waiting for him to come to it and face it and live his day of reckoning,—the da? of his He Defended Himielf Easily, Feeling H is Assistant's Strength Already Waning ) ^ i >ii 1 hiea«6SV<pointint. Aatiher* o5?-'ArtV a> thfc lino, a little to the brought.a pain shooting through his head. Up to the moment when the yellow hair had waved In his face, everything had kopt a ghastly distinctness. He remembered each instant and each, emotion. After that all was dark confusion, with only here and there a detached, inconsequent memory of appalling vividness. He could, remember that he had buried her on the other side of the hill where a gnarled cedar grew at the foot of a ledge of sandstone, using a spade that an Indian had brought him from a deserted camp. By her side he had found the scattered contents of the little bundle she had carried,— a small Bible, a locket, a worn gold bracelet, and a picture of herself as he had known her, a half-faded . daguerreotype set in a gilt oval; in a square rubber case that shut with a snap. The little limp-backed Bible had lain flung open on the ground in the midst of the other trinkets. He remembered picking these things up and retying them in the blue silk handkerchief, and then he had twice driven away an Indian who, finding no other life, came up to kill the two children huddled at the foot of the cedar. Some o f the men had camped oh the 3pot. Others had gone to Hamblln's ranch, near the Meadows, where the children were taken. He had sent ' can do so in peace and unmolested or own judgment upon himself. But he drank thirstily of the martial draught and lived the time In a fever of tumultuous drunkenness to the awful truth. Forces were sent into Echo canyon, the narrow defile between the mountains through which an army would have to pass. On the east side men were put to building stone ramparts as a protection for riflemen. On the 'west, where the side was sloping, they dug pits for the same purpose. They also built dams to throw large bodies of water along the west side of the canyon so that an army would be forced to the east side; and here at the top of the cliff, great quantities of boulders were placed so that a slight leverage 'would suffice to hail dhem down upon the army as it marched below. When word came that the invaders had crossed the Utah line, Brigham sent forward a copy of his proclamation and a friendly note of warning to the officer in command. In this he directed that officer to retire from the Territory by the same route he had entered it; adding, however, "should you deem this impracticable and prefer to remain until spring in the vicinity of your present position at Black's fork or Green river, you WJIBIUWHWI you .nepeeje**^Dav and ammunition-with Lewis Boblnson, quartermaster general of the Territory, and leave AS soon in the spring as the roads will permit yon to march. And should you fall short of. provisions *b«y will be furnished you upon making the proper application." The officer who received? this note had replied somewhat curtly that the forces he commanded were in Utah by order of the President of the United States and that their future movements would depend wholly upon orders issued by competent military authority. Thus She issue was forced. In addition to the defense of Echo canyon, certain agreasjve moves were made. To Joel Rae was allotted command of one of these. His orders promised all he could wish of action. He read them and felt something like his old truculent enthusiasm. "You will proceed with all possible dispatch, without injuring your animals, to the Oregon road near the bend of Bear river, north by east of this place. When you approach the road, send- scouts ahead to ascertain if the invading troops have passed that way. Should they have passed, take a concealed route and get ahead of them. On ascertaining the locality of the troops, proceed at once to annoy them in every possible way. Use every exertion to stampede their animals and set fire to their trains. Burn the whole country before them and on their flanks. Keep them from sleeping, by night surprises; blockade the road by felling trees, or destroying river fords where you can. Watch for opportunities to s e t fire to the grass on their windward, so as to envelop their trains if possible. Leave no grass before them that can be burned. Keep your men concealed a s much as possible, and guard against surprise. God bless you and give you success. "YOUR BROTHER IN CHRIST." Forty-four men were placed under his command to perform this work, and all of them were soon impressed, even to alarm, by the. very .evident reliance of their leader upon the God of Israel rather than upon any merely human wisdom of his own. The first capture was not difficult. After an all-night ride they came up with a supply-train of 25 wagons drawn by oxen. The captain of this train was ordered to "go the other way" until he reached the states. He started; but as he retraced his steps as often as they moved arway, they at length burned his train and left him. And so the campaign went forward. As the winter came on colder, the scouts brought in moving tales of the enemy's discomfiture. Colonel Alexander! of the Federal forces, deciding that tiie canyons could be defended by the\saints, planned to approach Salt Lake City ove\ a roundabout route to \he north.^He started in heavy snow.^-eutiiag^a road through the greasewood and sage brush. Often his men made but three miles a day, and his supply-train was so long that sometimes half of it would be camped for the night before the rear wagons had moved. As there was no cavalry in the force the hosts of Israel harassed them sorely on this march, on one day consecrating 800 head of their oxen and driving them to Salt Lake. Albert Sidney Johnston, commanding the expedition, had also suffered greatly with his forces. The early snows deprived his stock of forage, and the unusual cold froze many oxen and mules. Lieut. Col. Cooke of the Second Dragoons* with whom traveled the newly appointed governor, was another to suffer. At Fort Lavamie so many of his animals had dropped out that numbers of his men were dismounted, and the ambulances used to carry grain. Night after night they huddled at the base of cliffs in the fearful teddies of the snow, and heard above the blast the piteous cries of their famished and freezing stock. Day after day they pushed against the keen blades of the wind, toiling through frocen clouds and stinging ice blasts. The last 35 miles to Fcrt Bridger had required 15 days, and at one camp on Black's fork, which they called the '<camp of Death," 500 animals perished la a night. Nor did the hardships of the troops end when they had all reached what was to be their winter quarters. Still +mr: m a hundred and ftfteen afiaa fras tae> City of the Saints, they were poorly housed against the bitter cold, poorly fed, and insufficiently clothed, for the burning of the trains by the Lord's' hosts had reduced all supplies. Reports of this distress were duly carried to Brigham and published to the Saints. Their soldiers had made good their resolve to prevent the Fed* eral army from passing the Wasatch mountains. Aggressive operations ceased for the winter/and the greater part of the militia returned to their homes. A small outpost of 50 men under the command of Major Joel Rae —who had earnestly requested _thi» assignment—was left^to gtufrd" the narrows of Echo canyon and to keep watch over the enemy during the winter. This officer was' now |tfrsj*4<ed that the Lord's hand was with them. For the enemy had been wasted away even by the elements from the time he had crossed the forbidden line. In Salt Lake City that winter, the same opinion prevailed. They were henceforth to be the free and ind<* pendent State of Deseret. "Do you want to know," asked Brigham, in the tabernacle, "what is to be done with the enemy now on our borders? As soon as they start to come into our settlements, let sleep depart from their eyes until they sleep in death! Men shall be secreted along the route and shall waste them away fn the name of the God of Battles. The United States will have to mak> peace with us. Never again we make peace with them." CHAPTER XVIII. How the Lion of the Lord Roared Soft. But with the coming of spring some fever that had burned in the blood of the Saints from high to low was felt to be losing-its heat. They had held the Gentile army at bay during the winter—with the winter's help. But spring was now melting the snows. Reports from Washington, moreover, indicated that a perverse generation in the states had declined to accept the decrees of Israel's God without further proofs of their authenticity. With a view to determining this Issue, Congress had voted more money for troops. Three thousand men were to march to the reinforcement of the army of Johnston on Black's fork; forty-five hundred wagons were to transport their supplies; and 50,000 oxen and 4,000 mules were to pull these wagons. War, in short, was to be waged upon this Israel hidden in the chamber of the mountains. To Major Rae, watching on the outposts of Zion from behind the icy ramparts of Echo canyon, the news was wel« come, even enlivening. The more glory there would be in that ultimate triumph which the Lord was about to secure for them. In Brigham and the other leaders, however, this report induced deep thought. And finally, on a day, they let it be known that there could no longer be any thought of actual war with the armies of the Gentile. When he heard that the new governor, who had been in the snow with Johnston's army all winter, was to enter Salt Lake City and take his office —a Gentile officer to sit on the throne of Brigham—he felt that the Ark of the Covenant had been thrown down. "Let us not," he implored Brigham in a letter sent him from Echo canyon, "be again dragooned into servile obedience to any one less than the Christ of God!" But Brigham's reply was an order to pass the new governor through Echo canyon. According to the terms of this order he was escorted through at night, in a manner to convince- him that he was passing between the lines of a mighty and far-flung host. Fires were kindled along the heights and the small force attending him was cunningly distributed and duplicated* a few of its numbers going ahead from time to time, halting the rest of the party and demanding the countersign. (TO BE CONTINUED.) A Bold Scheme That Won Scotsmen Both Got Drink but Mental Strain Was Great. Two Scotsmen with a thirst counted up their joint possessions and found that they could just cover the price of a drink of whisky. They went into the nearest saloon, and ordered the one drink, Sandy putting down the money for the same. Then arose a discussion as to how it could be disposed of to the best advantage of both. Being Scotsmen, it was no Alphonse and Gaston discussion. Each was disposed to stand on his own rights, while at the same time admitting the claim of the other. At the critical moment a stranger entered the saloon With a wink of his eye at his companion, Sandy turned to the newcomer and said: "Will you have a drink with us?" Supposing that the other had drank before his entrance, the stranger said heartily, "I will, and emptied the glass. There was an uncertain pause for a moment, and then the third man said: "Come on boys, and have one on me." They had it. As they went out Sandy wiped his mouth and said: "See, moh, it worked." "Yes," was the reply, "but oh! what a risk!"—Philadelphia Record. Sun Is Shaky. The sun proves to be undergoing continual change of shape. From measurements at Gottingen during IS years, Dr. C. L.

It would have secured railway mail service for about half the amount the government now pays for it or for as little as the Express companies pays for a similar service and it would have given every mail carrier in the rural service a light wagon and carried on a very extensive rural express business in combination with the mail delivery.

Indeed, he held a champion's trophy. During the daytime there were few people to use his tables, and If any one desired a game the proprietor would accommodate hi in. One afternoon a farmer whose lineaments were French strolled Into the place and seemed greatly pleased with It "Would you like to play a game?" asked the proprietor. The farmer admitted that he had heard a great deal about billiards and had come to Montreal especially to play a game. The proprietor called for a set of balls, handed the farmer a cue and, unlocking a private rack, took down his own cue. "How much you play for?" asked the farmer. "1 don't play for money." "What! Nothing to mak eet Inter eating?" "If you like we'll play for refresh meats." "Refreshments! What is that?" "Drinks, cigars, anything you like." "Ver* welL How much de game?" "Oh, we'll play till you are satisfied that I can beat you." Meanwhile several loiterers gathered around to see the expression that would come over the farmer's face when he saw the proprietor counting as much as he liked. The farmer was given the first shot He took a long time to make up his mind what to do and when it was made up did a great deal of sawing with his cue. He missed the shot he tried for, but "scratched" one point The proprietor then attempted to show the spectators a very difficult round table shot, but, having no Incentive, played carelessly and missed. "Go ahead," he said to his opponent. "You say we play till T am satisfled r he asked. 'That was the understanding." "I am satisfied. I stop." There was a burst of laughter from the onlookers, for the "house" bad lost the refreshments. Now. it happened that an amateur player, an expert, was looking on who was n<' as averse to betting money a? the proprietor. When the latter threw down his cue and ordered the refreshments the expert went up to the farm er with outstretched hand and told him he was the cleverest countryman that had ever honored Montreal with his presence. Then he offered to play him a friendly game for a nominal stake. The farmer accepted, and the game began. The expert played as badly as he could, but not badly enough t^ let the farmer beat him, which he intended In order to draw his dupe tnto his net But the more the farmer lost the more he insisted on playing further and, to regain his losses, continually suggested a raising of the stake till be had lost In round numbers $250. Then he got very much excited. Drawing a wallet from his pocket he showed his enemy $250 in bills, which he agreed to put up in case he could get odds of 4 to 1. The expert, with well feigned reluctance, at last agreed, and, getting the money from the proprietor, the stakes were placed in the letter's hands. The expert won first shot and rnn 63 points, the game being 100. Then the farmer chalked his cue, looked at the balls and began to play. His first shot waa a difficult masse, with n draw nearly,the full length of the table, and he made it beautifully. From that he proceeded to make one difficult shot after another, always leaving the balls In the position he desired. A crowd gathered around, and it was soon apparent to them that no such handling of billiard balls had ever been seen in Montreal. The game being a short one, It seemed that the player was ambitious to make ngarly all the points by difficult s h o t g T u e missed no shot at all till he had counted 100 points and won $1,000. From the moment the farmer made the first shot the expert, who was the best amateur player in the city, had made up his mind that he had fallen Into hiB own trap. When the money was paid over to the farmer the loser said to hlm:v "Now thatv you've been paid the bet perhaps you won't mind telling us who yon a r e f "I got leetle farm down on de Blche lien riviere," said the farmer. "Rats!" said his questioner and, turning on his heel, left the place. Then the farmer called for refreshments and invited his admirers to partake of them. Now, there was a billiard match to be played that night between the champion of the United 8Utes from New Tork and the champion of France from Parte This was mentioned to the fanes*, and he manifested a desire to see tfce match. Promising to meet his new made friends at the place appointed for the game, be left them to EARLY RISERS during the day, had been detained.

When a side door opened and the contestants appeared those who had met the fanner were astonished to see him in the person of the French champion.

A philologist traces to It "the checker board," "the exchequer" and "a checkered career.4" "A good mere" is also probably from chess.

On the Pacific coast there is a man by the name of Pearson, his native state is said tar be Arkansas, bvt he now resides in a* small Washington town, who can, without any undoe effort/ send forth remarkable melodies which sound like the music of a piano with a melodeon accompaniment. This lung piano, as it has been termed by the owner, is partly a gift of Nature, but Pearson has cultivated the use of the extraordinary instrument very carefully and thoroughly, until now he is able to play several familiar tunes with wonderful expression and technique. Friends of Pearson say that his services are invaluable when church fairs, bazaars and country entertainments are on hand. He makes an excellent barker, and his tuneful voice penetrates the farthermost corner of a meeting house or tent. He says that other people could perfect themselves in the same accomplishment If they tried It and practiced It regularly.

THREE EPOCHS IN A WOMAN'S LIFE MRS. ELVA BARBER EDWARDS There are three critical stages in a woman's life which leave their mark in her career. The first of these stages is womanhood, or the change iron? a care free "girl to budding; womanhood, The second is motherhood, and the third ia Change of Life. — - Perils surround each of these stages, and mosjb of the misery that cornea to women through ill health dates from one of another of. these important crises. Women should remember that Lydia B. HsfchaaVs Vegetable CoenpotjSMl made from native root* and herbs has carried thousands of young girls over the critical period of puberty, has ftrepared mothers for childbirth, and n later years carried them safely through the change of life more successfully than any other remedy in the world. Thousands of testimonials from grateful persona, two of which are here published, substantiate this fact beyond contradiction. Mrs. George Walters of Woodlawn, 111. writes! Dear Mrs. Piakham:— **I feel it my duty to tell you of the good Lydia B. Piakhanrs Vegetable Compound has done me in preparing for chlWbirth. After suffering ana losing my children a friend advised me to try yonr valuable me* dicine, and the result was that I had very little inconvenience, a quick recovery and MAS. GEORGE WALTERS aa healthy a child as can befound amywhere. Lydia & Oakham's Vegetable Compound is a blessing to all expectant mothers." Mrs, Siva Barber Edward* o f Cathlamei, Wash., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham>- "I want to tell you bow LydM B. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound carried me through the critical period of the Change of Life without any trouble whatever, also cured me of a very severe female weakness, I eanaotjay enough in praise of what your medicine has done for me." What Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound did for Mrs, Walters and Mrs. Edwards it will do for other women in their condition. Every suffering woman in the United States is asked to accept the following invitation. It is free, will bring you health and may save your life, Mrs. risftaagfl'S krttatfM to Watre, Women suffering from any form of female weakness are invited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. From the symptoms given, the trouble may be located and the quickest and surest way of recovery advised. Out of her vast volume of experience in treating female ills Mrs. Pinkham probably has the very knowledge that will help. y. our ccaassee., fHieerr aaddvviiccee is free and helpful. During its long record of more than thirty years its long list of actual cures, entitles Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound to the respect and confidence of every fair minded person. Lydia E.

The mere saying of words is easy, and some men devote their whole lives to it. They talk rather than act. The calamity heevlers in any community are of this kind. While the unsuccessful business man is talking the saccesslol man is acting. When he speaks' he uses words, but he tells facts. He seldom, however, depends upon his own voice. He bringt to his aid the trumpet Umgned voice of the press. He purchases space in the advertising columns of his local paper, and he uses it to good advantage. This is your local paper.

"Ground oyster shells," said the physician, "were used as. a medicine by^ the mediaeval doctors—a medicine for the rickets and scrofula." "How absurd!" "Absurd? Not at all. Oyster shells contain lime, nitrogen, iron, sulphur, magnesia, bromide, phosphoric acid and Iodine. Those are all excellent tonics. You know how bens eat ground oyster shells and thus produce eggs with tfood, thick, strong shells? Well, as the oyster shell powder acts on eggshells so 1 have no doubt it acted in the middle ages on the bending, crumbling bones of the rickety, putting strength and firmness into them. Ground oyster Bhells, I am convinced, would be good things for frail children today. They would strengthen the frame, increase the appetite and have a splendid effect on the teeth."- Philadelphia Bulletin. A Cnrionii a n d R a r e B o o k . The most curious as well as one of the rarest books known to collectors is the edition of the Vulgate Issued by Pope Sixtus V. some time between 1585 and 159(). The book, as Disraeli described it. "fairly swarmed with errata." So numerous were they that a number of printed paper slips contain ing the proper words were pasted over the errors, and, this device proving inefficient on account of the Immense number of mistakes, as many of the copies as could be found were called in and destroyed. Only a few remain, and the book with its paper patches commands an extremely high price. Scott'H N a r r o w Bmcape.

As part o( the drain went through Eugene Mc- Clears land there bad tj be a special commissioner appointed and Miles Bullock was the one. Some of tbe land owners would not give tbe right of way for the drain consequently there bad to be three disinterested commissioners appointed to deside if the drain was a necessity and this had to go through the probates bands, The "Endless Chain" prayer which has been flooding the country the past year or two, struck Pinekney reoently. The prayer is said to hava been started bv Bishop Laurance of Mass,; but he denies all knowledge of tbe affair. The prayer reads "O Lord Jesus Christ we eroplore Thee, our Eternal God have mercy on mankind. Keep us from all sin and take us with Thee through all Eternity. Amen." The great misfortune threatened the ones who did not comply with the request of writing nine letters like the same to friends, is a myth. The ones who receive them would do well to confine them to the iurnace. License fop Pishing. Representative Chas. Ward, of Shiawassee county has given tbe fishing problem some study and is favorable to a law providing for a license for fishing similar to the deer licepse. There was $19,207.6« paid into tbe treasury of the state last year for deer licenses which goes a long way towards protecting game. Mr. Ward says: "It costs the state of Michigan $40, 000 a year to maintain its fish hatcheries which are largely for the purpose of stocking the northern streams with trout, and inland lakes' with bass. Residents of other stajtes who come here to enjoy this fishir/g should contribute to tbe expense ojfruaintaining our hatcheries. 1 woujd favor a license of $6 for non res^raent fishermen.

One of the dangers of democratism which this country has not wholly essaped is a consequence of the wide* spread assumption that the natural equality between men signifies that all men are equally tibia to do all things. This view, It is true, has been often borne out by the amazing success of Americans, with no evident special training, in the discharge of public duties. Much good work has been done by men who have been elected or appointed to positions requiring great special skill, not because they had shown that skill, but because they were eminent citizens or useful party men or men of assertive genius who forged ahead to the work that their instincts rightly bade them seek. As the nation grows and the work of officials becomes more complex, there is increasing demand in all departments for experts. In response to this demand have come the reorganization of the consular service, the assemblage at Washington of a great number of scientific experts, the tendency In the post office and other departments to leave competent servants undisturbed by shifts of party power, and the recognition everywhere that men in public occupations like those in private business must be engaged and paid according to their ability. To have this ability they must be trained In their work. Department heads in Washington are calling for experts, and asking increased pay for those who have proved themselves expert, says Youth's Companion. Friends of good government in large cities are protesting against the conduct of city business by unbusinesslike men, against accounting departments under men who do not understand bookkeeping, sewer departments under men who know nothing of sewers. The improvement of all units of American government—nation, state and town—depends on the training and adequate payment of men who can do the public work. Hands Across the Sea. The only good result of the amazing blunder of the governor of Jamaica in rejecting the very practical offers of American assistance in relieving the results of the earthquake In that island is the opportunity given for renewed expression of friendship from the people of Great Britain. The British are much more severe upon Gov. Swettenham than are the Americans, the latter being disposed to laugh off the affair as a cranky ebullition of an overwrought adminstrator. But in London and throughout the British empire the humiliation of the governor's act and of the astounding manner in which it was committed fat. keenly felt, and there is haste to assure the people of the United States that the sentiment of the Jamaican governor does not represent the feeling of the people of Britain, who admire and appreciate the generous offers of American assistance and who deprecate any Interruption of the good feeling between the countries. With Secretary Root fraternizing with the Canadian authorities and with England raising a great ch^of protest against the Jamaican gov^nor's churlishness, remarks the TrojK Tinaelb the unnecessary Question, Wtfat ejffect has the English-Japanese, alliance upon the British attitude toward the United States? answers itself. The hands across the sea seem still to be clasped, and with no knife up the sleeve. Blood is still thicker than Jamaica spirits, particularly when the latter are sour. It is probable that the oldest and most compact book of reference in the world—certainly the one most consulted by the great ones of the earth—is the "Almanach de Ootha," of which the publishers have just Issued the one hundred and fortyfourth annual edition, consisting of Just 1,200 closely packed pages. Its pictorial honors are this time accorded to the kings and queens of Denmark and Norway, and admirable portraits they are. From this authentic publication we learn, says the London Chronicle, that the British people are living—not under a Guelph dynasty, but a "maison de Saxe-Coburg-Goth*.," which is a delicate Question for the genealogists. But the editor of the omniscient red-bound "AlmanacV rwaiy makes a mistake. W A N T WAJ.KEK. The Connecticut Ban* WnibXtr Waa Noted For ttlnpineaa, A reward of fS.OM for tfc* capture alive of William F. Walker, th* mlaarag bank treasurer of Now Britain, Conn., ts announced. The roward waa made $11000 if Walker should be dead when found. Walker was in the Cumberland hotel, Now York, a week ago. He had shaved off his wnitf whiskers, and had hit mustache trimmed and waxed. Instead of his usual modest quarters he took a suite of two rooms and bath. The clerk showed surprise and Walker said: "Oh, I have money. I might as well enjoy myself before 1 die." Walker left behind a grin which was afterwards taken in charge by his son. Walker had on a new suit. It has been determined that Walker had about 1200,000 in ready qash In his possession. He had always been noted for stinginess. A Cabinet Crisis. Despite official denials of dtssenjlons In the cabinet and among loading deputies who are ardent supporters of the government because of the seligtous dispute, the situation is such that a crisis may occur at any moment , Jt has been possible for Premier Clemen* ceau to patch up a tentative, peace agreement, but no one believes it will last long. Former Premier Combes and his partisans are the real disturbing element They frankly declare their anti-clerical policy and are opposed' to any compromise wkh the church In the quarrel over the separation of church and state. President Clemenceau cider with Combes and his faction.

Capitalists have invested in the Michigan product alone $8,800,- 000, and seventeen factories have been erected.^ Inasmuch as there is enough marl in'dght to run for at least 100 years, every plant will increase its output.

V ) OF THE LORD A Tate ef the Old Watt By flAIIY LEW WILSON CHAPTER XVIIl^-Continued. Joel^Rae foun0 himself believing that b# could now have been a fiercer Lioa ot^thV Lord than Brigham was; for he would have fought, while Brigham was stooping to petty strategies —as it God were needing to rely upon deceit/ Late, dp Jane the arjoay of Johnston descended Emigration canyon, passed through the streets of the city and camped, on the River Jordan. But, to the. deep despair of one observer, these invaders committed no depredation, or ove~ft act. After resting inoffensively two days on the Jordan, they marched 40 miles south to Cedar valley, where Camp Floyd was established. Thus, no one fully comprehending, how it had come about, peace was seen suddenly to have been restored. The people, from Brighaux down, had been offered a free pardon for; all past treasons and seditions if they would return to their allegiance to the Federal government; the new officers of the Territory were Jnstalled, sons of perdition in. the seats of the Lord's mighty;, and sermons of wrath against Uncle Sam ceased for the.moment to resound in the tabernacle. Early in July, Brighara ordered the people to return to their homes. They bad offered these as a sacrifice, even as Abraham had offered Isaac, and the Lord- had caught them a timely ram in the thicket. In the midst of the general rejoicing,, Joel Rae was overwhelmed with Elimination and despair. . , Off If, the south was the , desert. There lie could be alone; there face God and his own conscience and have lift inmost soul declare the truth about himself. In his sadness lie would have liked -*to lead the* people' with "him, lead them away from sqme evil, some falsity that had crept in about them; he knew not what It was nor how it had.come, but Zian had -been defiled,. Something,was gone from the Church, something from Brlgham, something from himself,—something, it almost seemed, even from the God of Israel. When the summer waned, his plan was formed to go to one of the southern settlements to live. Brigham had approved. The Church needed new blood there. He ,rode out of the city one early morning in September, facing to the •out* ever the rolling valley that lay bet w e * the hills now flaunting their ftret aatumn colors. He was in haste 4* l*> yet fearful of what he should Meet there. ^ The next erealnf fee reached Cedar J-Ctty; Mefccriea of tbi* locaflty began to crowd back upon him with tartar* cleavneas; especially of t&e morning he had left HamWiu's ranch. Aa be mounted his horse two of the childi »n aavedilsom the-iwag»a*ti«te"had stood *earJiinv** bey -of seven and another a little olden the one'who had fought so viciously with Aim-when he was separated from the little girL He remembered that the younger of the two boys had forgotten all but the fire* of his name. He had > told them that it was John Calvin—something; he. could not remember what, so great had been his fright; the people at the ranch, because of Ue> forlorn appearance, had thereupon named him John Calvin Sorrow. These two boys had watched him closely aa he mounted his horse, and the older one bad called to him, "When I get to be a man, I'm coming back with a gun and kill ycu till you are dead yourself," and the other, little John Calvin Sorrow, had clenched his fists and echoed the threat, "We'll come back here and kill you! Mormons is worae'n Indiana!" He bad ridden quickly away, not noting that some of the men standing by had looked sharply at the boys and then significantly at one another. One of those who had been present, whom he now met; told him of these two boys. "You see, Elder, the orders from headquarters waa to save only them that was too yonng to give evidence •'MfcfctHJSr ttf" ""'" 'V V..V V The BJoooVon the Page. Along the level lane between the mountain ranges he went, a lane that runs almost from Bear creek on the north to the Colorado on the south, with a width of 20 miles or so. But for Joel Rae it became a ride down the vaUey of lost illusions. Some savin* grace of faith was gone from the people. He passed through sturdy little settlements, bowered in gardens and orchards, and girded about by ROW fertile acres where once had been the bare, gray desert. Slowly, mile* by mile, the Baints had pushed down the valley, battling with the Indians and the elements for every acre of land they gained. Yet it seemed to him now that thef had achieved but a* mere Godless prosperity. They had worked a miracle of^abundaftee in the desert—but of what avail*' For th$ soul of their faith was .gone. He felt or heard the proof of it >on every hand. Through Battle Creek, rProvor^and Sprlngvllle he went; .through Sparta; Fork, Pay a on, Salt Creek, and Fillmore. He*, stopped to preach at ejach^ place, but he did it perfubetorily,<^td with shame for hlmaeit In, his secret heart. Some impalpaBle** essence of spirituality was gone from himself and from the people. He felt himself wick-, edly agreeing with a pessimistic elder at Fillmore, who remarked: "I tell you what, Brother Rae, it seems like when the Book of Mormon goes again' the Constitution of the United States, there's sure to be hell to pay, and the Saints alius has to pay it." He could not tell the man in words of fire, as once he would have done, that they had L'een punished foi:•' lacf oY* f/Slth, of awaken4hf> that otheia were aetf Mm. He heard (heir breathing, or in the alienee a fire's light had shown him a sleeping f a c f j i & t J b e t f b t U ' , or an ami iOe/f6^ out What d bttrofitcmHpe, jjlfjit he found ( a & e j p f ^efwnot—death, or the loss of reason* -v His way lay through the Meadows, yet, ha hardly nyillwAt taia. mail Jhe waa faJWy aa the ground in the midst of a thousand e^l signs of the day. Here, a year after, were skulls and whitening bones, some in heaps, some scattered through the sage-brush where the wolves had left them. Many of the skuHs were pierced with bullet holes, shattered aa by heavy blows, or cleft aa with a sharp-edged weapon. Even more terrifying than these were certain traces caught here and there' on the low scrub oaks along the way, —children's sun bonnets; shiods of coarse lace, muslin/ and calico; a child's shoe, the tattered sleeve of a woman's dress—all faded^ dead, whipped by the wind. He pressed through it all with set jaws, trying to keep his eyes fixed upon the ground beyond his horse's head; but his ears were at the mercy of the eriea that rang from every thicket Once out of i t he rode hard, for it mustLJiot come yet—his first night alone. By dusk he had reached the new settlement of Amnion, a little off the main road In a valley of the Pine mountains. Here he sought the house where he had left the child. When He picked t i e bundle xr» ttd untied it, touchinf the opntenu timidly. He took up the Bible last and as he did se» a memory flooded back upon him that sickened him.and left him trembling, tt waa the book Jie had given fner onf her seventeenth' birthday, the one she bad told him the waa keeping when they parted that morning at #auvoo. He knew.,the truth* before he opened it at the yellowed-, flyleaf and read i a faded ink, "From.Joel to Prudence on this day when she' is 17 years old—June 2d, 1843.'' In a daze of feeling he turned the pageevtryia* to clear hi? mind, glancing at the chapter headings as he turned,—"Abraham is Justified by Faith," "God Inatructeth Isaac," "Pharaoh's Heart Is Hardened," "The Laws of Murder," "The Curses for Disobedience." He turned rapidly and at laat began to run the leaves from between his thumb and finger, and then, well over in the book something dark caught his eye. He tamed the leaves back again to see what it was; but not until the book was opened flat before him and he held the page close to the light did he see what it was his eye had caught A wash of blood was across the page. . He stared blankly at the reddish, dark stain, as If its spell had been hypnotic. Little by little he began to feel the horror of it, remembering how he picked the book up from where it had fallen before her. Slowly, but with relentless certainty, his mind cleared to what he saw. - Now. for the first time he began to notice the words that showed dimly through the stain, began to read them, to puzzle them out, as if they were new to him: — "But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you, "Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you. "And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek, toiler also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloke forbid, not to take thy coat also. "Give to every.man 4hat asketh of thee; and- of htm that taketh away thy goods ask them not again. "And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise." Again and again he read them. They were illumined with a strangely terrible meaning by the blood of her he had loved and sworn to keep himself clean for. <.?'> He could no longer fight off the truth.- It was facing him now in all its nakedness, monstrous to obscenity, demanding its due measure from his own soul's blood. He aroused himself, shivering, and looked out into the room where the shadows lay heavy, and from whence came the breathing of the sleepers. He picked ^p the now sputtering candle, set in its hole bored in. a: block of wood; and held it ur for a last look at the little woman-child. He was full of an agony of wonder as he gazed, of piteous questioning why this should be as it was. The child stirred and flung one arm ove* her eyes as if to hide the light. He put out the candle and set it down. Then stooping over, he kissed the pillow beside the child's head and stepped lightly to the door. He had come to the end of his subterfuge—he could no longer delay his punishment. Outside the moon was shining, and his horse moved about restlessly. He put on the saddle and rode off to the south, galloping rapidly after he reached the highway. Off there was a kindly desert where a man could take in peace such punishment as his bod" could bear and his soul decree; and where that soul could then pass on in decent privacy to be judged by Its Maker. "You're Met My Papa—Not My Real Papa!" in a court. But these two was very forward and knowing. They shouldn't have been kept in the first place. So two men—no need of naming n a m e s - took both of them out one night They got along all right with the little one they called John Calvin Sorrow— only the little cuss kicked and scrambled so that we both had to see to him for a minute, and when we was ready for the other, there he was at least ten rods away, a-legging it into the scrub oak. Well, they looked and looked and hunted around till daybreak, but he'd got away all right, the moon going under a cloud. They tracked him quite a ways when it come light, till his tracks run into the trail of a big band of Navajos that had been up north trading ponies and was going back south. He was the one that talked so much about you, but you needn't ever have any fear of his talking any more. He'd be. done f for one way or another." For the first ttme in his life that night, he was *afraid to pray,—afraid ev^n to give thanks that others were sleeping in the room with him so that he cpuld hear 'their breathing and know that he was not alone. He was up betimes to press on to the south, again afraid to pray, and dreading what was still in store for him. For sooner or later he would have to be alone in the night. Mhus far since that day in the Meadows he had slept near others, whether in cabins or in camp, in some freighter's wagon or bivouacking in the snows of Echo canyon. Each night he had been conscious, at certain terrible moments he had picketed his horse he went in and had her brought to him,—a fresh little flower4ike woman-child, with hair and eyes that told of her mother, with reminders of her mother's ways as she stood before him, a waiting poise of the head, a lift of the chin. They looked at each other in the candle- light, the child standing by the woman who had brought her, looking up at him curiously, and he not daring to touch her or go nearer. She became uneasy and frightened at last, under his scrutiny, and when the woman would have held her from running away, began to cry, so that he gave the word to let her go. She ran qu'.ekly into the other room of the cfcbin, from which she called back with tears of indignation in her voice, "You're not my papa—not my real papa!" When the people were asleep, he sat before the blaze in the big fireplace, on the hearth cleanly swept with its turkey-wiug and buffalo-tail. There was to be one more night of his reprieve from solitude. The three women.of the house and the man were sleeping around the room in bunks. The child's bed had been placed near him on the floor after she slept, as he had asked it to be. He had no thought of sleep for himself. He was too intensely awake with apprehension. On the floor beside his chair was a little bundle the woman had brought him,—the bundle he had found loosened by her side, that day, with the trinkets scattered about and the limp-backed little Bible lying open where it had fallen. CHAPTER XX. The Picture In the Sky. If something of the peace of the night silence came to him as he rode, he counted it only the peace of surrender and despair. He knew now that he had been cheated of all his great long-nursed hopes of some superior exaltation. Nor this only; for he had sinned unforgivably and incurred jefdlttofl. He-win* l i d fddted, prayed, aad endured, waiting lor bia ^itaeae, for the spreadiag of til* heaveai and the glory of the open vision, had overreached, hi ajse^ and waa e n * down. When at bet ha, slowed his horse to ^ w a | k , ijuwaa the spring pf,the day; \?be meon-had geua> and- eve* o» k«fi left a soft grayneae. began to show above the line of the, hills. The light grew until it glowed with the fire of opals; through the .treetops ran, little stirs of wakefulness, and all about him were faint, furtive rustlings aad whispers of the^new day. Then ia this glorified dusk of the dawn s squirrel loosed his bark ef alarm, a crested jay screamed in aaswer, and he knew his hour of atonement wascome. He pressed forward again toward the desert, eager to be on with i t The page with the wash of blood across it seemed to take on * new vividness in the stronger light Under the stain, the letters of the words were magnified before his mind,—' "And as ye would that men should' do to you—" It seemed to him that the blood through which they came heated the words so that they burned: hfs eyes. An hour after daybreak the trail led him down out of the hilli by a little watercourse to the edge of the desert. Along the sides of this the chaparral grew thickly, and the spring by which he halted made a little spot of green at the edge of the gray. But out in ] front of him was the infinite stretch of death, far sweeps of wind-furrowed sand burning under a sun made sullen red by the clouds of fine dust in the air. Sparsely over the dull surface grew the few shrubs that Could survive the heat and dryness,—stunted, unlovely things of burr, spine, thorn, or saw-edged leaf,—all bent one ways by the sand blown against them,— \ bristling cactus and crouching mesquite bushes. In the vast open of- the bide above, a vulture wheeled with sinister alert- [ ness; and far out among the dwarfed growing things a coyote skulked knowingly. The weird, phantom-like beauty of it stole upon him, torn as he was, while he looked over the dry, flat reaches. It was a good place to die in, this lifeless waste languishing under an angry sun. At last he gave hfs horse water; tied the bridlerein to the horn of the saddle, beaded him back over the trail to the valley and turned him loose. Then, after a long look toward the saving green of the hills, he started off through the yielding sand, his face white and haggard but hard-set. He was already weakening by fasting and loss of sleep, and the heat and dryness soon told upon him as the chill was warmed from the morning air. When he had walked an hour, he felt he must stop, at least to rest. He looked back to see bow far lie had come. He was disappointed by the nearness of the hills; they seemed but a stone's throw away. If'delirium came now he would probably wander back to the water. He walked another hour, then turned, and was again disappointed— it was such a little distance; yet he knew now he must be too far out to find his way back when the madness came. So it was with a little sigh of contentment that he lay down to rest or to take what might come. He was quite broken. Not since the 1 long-gone night on the river-fiat across from Nauvoo had tears wet hls^eyes. But they fell now. and from sheer, helpless grief he wept. And then for the first time in two days he prayed— this time the prayer of the publican:— "God be merciful to me, a shrner." Over and over he said the words, chokingly, watering the hot sands with his tears. When the paroxysm had passed, it left him, weak and prone, still faintly crying his prayer into the sand. 'O God, be merciful to me, a sinner." (TO BE CONTINUED.) Use Pennies by the Million Twenty-Five Tons of Them in London Slot Gas Machines Every Week. An English penny Is so nearly two cents of our currency that the difference is negligible. It Is given out that the South Metropolitan Gas Company, which does a large business on the south side of London, takes about twenty-five tons of pennies from the slot machines every week. These slot machines are used for the purpose of supplying gas to the poorer classes who are compelled to buy it in small j quantities, a penny paying for about twenty-eight cubic feet. The company has perhaps 200.000 of these slot machines in operation. It becomes an interesting question how niuch money is represented by twenty-five tons of pennies. An English penny weighs approximately lie* grains. As a 'pound avoirdupois contains 7,000 grains, the pennies run very near to forty-eight to the pound. A long ton, or 2,240 pounds, would therefore make 107,520 pennies, and twenty-five tons would mean 2,6S8,0QQ. These would be worth $53,760, a large sum, indeed, but hardly so large aa the great weight would lead us to ea> pect In a year, however, the slot machines would mean payment for four billion cubic feet of gas, which is less than one-third of the amount annually sold by the company. At the same time it shows an immense value for a small retail trade to the classes that are so poor that they buy a penny's worth of gas at a time. In this case a slot machine supplies a real want, and while the poor may pay more for gas in such small quantities, they are at least enabled to purchase It In quantities within their means.

PROPRIETOR THURSDAY, FEB. 21, 1907. A Wild Bill We have always gived W. H. S. Wood of Howell, credit tor" bayinw a long, yet level head, but his preparing a bill to change the name of Hamburg and Brighton townships to Winans and Bingham, respectively, sbowes that he has slipped a cog or off his "trolley" especially in this matter. The names of Brighton and darnburg have always, or at least as long as anyone now living can remember, have been in use and it would be next to impossible to make the change without ma'kfnk a'm'ix up that could not be righted in a*century. 'The majority of the citizens of Hamburg township at least are well satisfied with the name and are proud to say that it was the .home of the lamented Winans. W« presume the people of Brighton teel the same and it saems too bad to change the name of old and noted townships to please a few. The nvmes of inans and Bingham will never be forgotten as long as the townships stand. Mr. Wood has another idea for the legislature to compel all farmers to place their names on their barns in large letters, and that is a much more sensible bill although we boubt the right of the state to compel the expense. It is a nice thing however to drive through the country and not only see the names of the owners of the farms but the name of the farm, and why not while doing it have it all incorporated in the one bill.

Anyone interested cau call or write R. Clinton, Piuckney, Mich. This association will be known as the American beau growers association, it is to have K clerk, who will be elected by the farmers at each town or city in the beau growiug sections of the country, to whom the farmers will report after threshing their beans how many bushels they have to sell and in which month they wish to sell them in. The clerk is to furnish a book expressly for this business. The farmei shall send his name and the number of bushels of beaus he has to sell, to the clerk of the town or city where he wishes to deliver his beaus. A Marriage Lottery • • # < ;'»»e*»'H"i [Orid&ai.] In Smolensk, Russia, marriage is really a lottery." Four times a year a prize is drawn there in the matrimonial market. Five thousand tickets are sold at a ruble a ticket. The winner oi the 5,000 rubles is bouml to marry a certain girl. Should the y;ii decline to marry him they may divide the money between them. In case the man is already married he may turn over the money and the matrimoulul prlw to any friend he may select. One day a traveler stopped lu the town and, hearing of the lottery, gave a servant 10 rubles and told him to buy ten tickets. The drawing was to take place that evening, and after supper the stranyer strolled around to the building appointed for the purpose. The wheel was turned and a paper drawn. He who drew it held it up, looked at it and said: "The winner Is Dmitri Warouivieh." The stranger started. Every one looked at every one else. No one seemed to know who Dmitri Waroui vlch was. "If Dmitri Warouivieh is here, let him come forward." The stranger advanced and after gome questipning was credited with the money and conducted to the, home of the girl he had drawn, Mirza Dovienleff was of a station far beyond those who would usually put T h e price of Sept. beans will be ! themselves up to be raffled for. A $1.40; Oct. $1.45; Nov. #1.50; Dec. «.55; Jan. $1.00; Feb. $1.6¾; March $1.65, and so on the balance of the year. But if the beans pick more thau two pounds, the price will be diminished 3c. per pound. The farmers shall pay for cleaning and Backing beans let. per bushel, and the clerk shall receive Jet. per bushel for his work, which is to be paid when the beaus are delivered. When the farmer delivers his beans, he shall receive a receipt for them which shall be payable at the bank in 3 days from date, or soou as the car i a t r j p haiimier. is loaded. The beaus 'are to be paid for on track. The farmer shall be limited to a fancy for sueh a role had taken possession of her, though she had no Idea of marrying the man who should draw the prize of which she was a part.

Navy To Become The Foremost in The World, Is Manned N o * By American Sailors. California, Art Satisfied. ' The administration plan to settle Una California-Japanese situation was approved by the senate Saturday in jttie adoption of toe conference report ou the Immigration bill. This report contains a provision which authorizes <the president to exclude Japanese laborers from the United States at his discretion. The bill now will go t6 the house for i U approval, which it has been stated, in certain. • The entire day was devoted to debate of auctions in the renor*. T«e oppaliaicm^rQsented an aJtamatlwe plan In a resolution of Instructions to the conferees requiring them to brtaar in a provision positively prohibiting the entrance of Japanese laborers to the United States. Senator Culberson presented this resolution, it was declared not In order on motion of Mr. Lodge and an appeal from this ruling of the vice-president was defeated by a vote of 45 to 24, being practically a party vote. The conference report was then adopted without a roll call. Mayor Sehmitz, of San Francisco, announced that he would be unable to make any statement on the Japan- *we Question until the house had passeft ou the exclusion amendment to the immigration bill. Schmitz and the members of Che Saa Francisco school board expressed the greatest satisfaction with ttre adtou of the senate in adopting the amendment. JAP COOMJSS. Reep Them Out, $ays Japan, and That Settles I t The important fast became known Thursday that the government of Japan had indicated clearly to tne United States government that exclusion of Japanese laborers from the continental .limits of the United States would not be an offense to Japan. In the light of this knowledge, the situation between the governments over the discrimination againBt Japanese on the Pacific coast assumes a much more satisfactory aspect, and the promise of an adjustment that will not interfere with the continuance of those extremely cordial relations that have prevailed between Japan and America for so many years, seems to be assured. The vital declaration of the Japanese government of the virtual sympathy with the desire of the United States government to exclude Japanese coolies was the outcome of exchanges that arose not through the Pacific coast agitation, but from a complaint made by this government to Japan that many Japanese were being brought into this country in violation of the contract labor laws. To this complaint Japan responded that it did not want its laborers to come to the United States and in fact refused to grant passports to its coolie emigrants to proceed to the American continent, although passports to proceed to Hawaii and oJJher insular possessions of the United States were be- "But," said the American government, in effect, "your laborers are'eofntng to the continent from Hawaii" Japan's answer was simple and direct. It was practically: - "Why don't you stop them, we won't object?" • CRAZY HARRY. Our Navy. Th ;re has never been so great in tojr«HN*akea in eaval matters in this country as at present. With the president enthusiastically in favor of upbuilding the navy, this country is ex- TP'ectod to become iff a few years one -of the foremost naval powers of the world. The big vessels being added to the navy must be manned and their orews must be trained. While it is ^enf»r*H>- ktiown <hftt the navy offers Hxo^llent opportunities for good life May Be Sent to Asylum for the Criminal Insane. Close observers of the Thaw trial believe the present trend of the trial, as shown in the last two days, "4s toward a commission In lunacy to determine officially Harry Thaw's condition of mind. This belief is suggested by District Attorney Jerome's apparent willingness to admit part of the \flll by his readiness to withhold technical objections to the testimony of Thaw's family physicians tending to throw light upon the defendant's mental status and by his policy of admitting without opposition the conversation between Thaw and Dr. Evans when the latter was examining the prisoner in the Tombs.

Stories of mistreatment artd desertion of passengers by the ill-fated steamer Larchraont's officers and crew are vigorously denied by the officers of the steamer Kentucky, which arrived In New York Friday. The Kentucky was sent to Block Island by the Joy line immediately after the first news et the disaster. Purser Edward Bodner, of the Kentucky, declares several of the rescued passengers are loud in praise of Capt. McVey'i oonduct at the time of the disaster, and that one of the two women passengers who survived says the captain did everything possible under the circumstances. Supt. Noble, of the Joy line, says: "If I were organizing a steamship company tomorrow McVey would be the first captain I would select. He is known as the strictest disciplinarian in the Joy line service." The death of Samuel Lacombe, of Manchester, N. H., one of the 19 who reached shore after the Larchmont went down, brings the list of survivors down to 18. Eighty-seven people, who are known to have been on the steamer are still missing or unidentified; and It is now practically certain that the Larchmont carried out with her on that fatal Monday night 159 souls, This makes the death list 141. •'f^rS Kuropatkin's History.

PERMANENTLY CURED Of Kidney Disease by Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy. Mr. C. M. Bartholomew, of Kalkaska, Mich., was a sufferer in 1886 with what all, including physicians, called Brlght's Disease of the Kidneys. Doctors said there was no help for him. As a last resort he used Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy. The symptoms disappeared and he was permanently cured by this great remedy. His case was a.remarkable ope and attracted great attention. Now, in 1906 (20 years after) Mr. Bartholomew writes that he confirms all,that he said in favor of Favorite Remedy in 1886, and again endorses its use. Not a "patent" medicine. FREE SAMPLE BOTTLE.

Some gifts for it came from Christian Herald patrons of famine oWl^en, who were glad to help to supply a place of worship for their proteges, as well as to help to feed, clothe and train them. If these patrons see this picture in your paper, I trust they will feel glad that they had a part in supplying such a Christian church edifice for India. Part of the Money was given by Indian Christians; by two former governors of the Bombay presidency; by a prominent member of parliament; by non-Christarn Hindus, and by a large number of American friends representing the Congregational, Presbyterian, Episcopal, Roman Catholie> Methodist, Bap» tist, Unitarian and Hebrew denominations.

V*<+ One of the Important Duties of Physi ,»s and the Well-informed of the World is tQi lpaip as to the relative standing and reliability of the leading manufacturers of medicinal agents, as the most eminent physicians arc the most careful as to the uniform quality and perfect purity of remedies prescribed by them, and it is well known to physicians and the Well-Informed generally that the California Fig Syrup Co., by reason of its correct methods and perfect equipment and the ethical character of its product has attained to the high standing in scientific and commercial circles which is accorded to successful and reliable houses only, and, therefore, that the name of the Company has become a guarantee of the excellence of its remedy. TRUTH AND QUALITY appeal tfo the Well-informed in every walk of life and are essential to permanent suc^ cess and creditable standing, therefore we wish to call the attention of all who would enjoy good, health, with its blessings, to the fact that it involves the question oi right, living with ail the term implies. With proper knowledge of what is best each hour of recreation, of enjoyment, of contemplation and of effort may be made to contribute to1 that end and the use of iriedicihes dispensed with generally to great advantage, but as in many instances a simple, wholesome remedy may be invaluable if taken at the proper time, the California Fig Syrup Co. feels that it is alike important to present truthfully the subject and to supply the one perfect laxative remedy which has won ^heappovalof physicians and the world-wide acceptance of the Well-informed because of the excellence of the combination, known to all, and the original method of manufacture, which is known to the California Fig Syrup Co. only. This valuable remedy has been long and favorably known under the name of— Syrup of Figs—and has attained to world-wide acceptance as the most excellent of family laxatives, and as its pure laxative principles, obtained from Senna, are well known to physicians and the Well-In formed of the world to be the best of natural laxatives, we have adopted the more elaborate name of—Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna—as more fully descriptive of the remedy, but doubtless it will always be called for by the shorter name of Syrup of Figs—and to get its beneficial effects always note, when purchasing, the full name of the Company — California Fig Syrup Co.— plainly printed on the front of every package, whether you simply call for — Syrup of Figs—or by the full name—Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna—as—Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna—is the one laxative remedy manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. and the sfjne heretofore known by the name — Syrup of Figs — which has given satisfaction to millions. The genuine is for sale by all leading druggists throughout the United States in original packages of one size only, the regular price of which is fifty cents per bottle.

The alarm was given and neighbors succeeded in saving nearly everything but tbe goods in the cellar. The old bouse was one ot tbe landmarks in this vicinity as it was built over 50 years ago, The Powlerviije Review says "that for years past nearly all grades of butter has been purchased by our merchants at about one price. Commencing on Monday last they expect to grade tbe butter in the future and are paying this week from 16 to 20 cents per pound. It is eipected this will have a tendancy to produce a larger amount of good butter, for certainly one who exercises care and spends time in producing a good article should reap the benefit. Tbe W.I.

Be hastened to call at the office sf the Bugle. "Mr. Stires," he said to the editor, "I want to thank you for signing my name to my poem in this week's paper. It encourages a fellow when ha gets proper credit for his work." "Oh, that's all right, Johnson,** *» eponded the editor.

P1NCKNEY, MICHIGAN !9e Bacon. Do you remember what Charles Lamb says about roast pig? How he fall* Into an ecstasy of laudation, spelling the very name with small cap itala, as if tho lower case were too mean for such a delicacy, and breaking away from the cheap encomiums of the vulgar tongue to hail it la sonorous Latin as prlnclpes obsoniorum. There is some truth in bis compliments, no doubt; but they are wasteful, excessive, imprudent For if all tils praise is to be lavished on plain, fresh, immature, roast pig; what adjectives shall we find for the riper, ricb^BB, more subtle and sustaining viand, broiled bacon? asks Henry Van Dyke, in Scrlbner's. On roast pig.a mas cannot work; often he cannot sleep, i.' he have partaken of . it immoderately. But bacon "brings to its sweetness no satiety." It strengthens the arm while it satisfies the palate. Crisp, Juicy, savory; delicately salt as the breeze that blows from tbe sea; faintly pungent as the blue smoke of incense wafted from a clean wood fire; aromatic, ^appetizing, nourishing, a .stimulant to the hunger which it appeases, 'tis the matured bloom and consummation of the mild little pig, spared by foresight for a nobler fate than juvenile roasting, and brought by art and man's device to a perfection surpassing nature. All the problems of woodland cookery are best solved by the liaconian method. And when we say of one escaping great disaster that he has "saved his bacon," we say that the physical basis and the quintessinal comfort of his life are untouched and secure. New Plan to 8ave Child Labor. A proposition to take all children inder 14 years of age from factories and other places of employment and send them to school has been made by N. O. Nelson, a millionaire manufacturer, to the women's clubs of St Louis. Mr. Nelson Is to pay the children half the amount they would receive for their work, and the clubs the other half. The clubs have yet to give their decision and, pending it, Mr. Nelson has undertaken to do the work himself, says Reader Magazine. He has investigated for several weeks past every application to the truant officer for permits for children under age to work in the factories, and has, at the present writing, found seven worthy cases. Each week these children call at Nelson's office and receive the money they would have been paid for working—an average of three dollars a week. Then the children have been returned to their schools. In less than one-third of the cases investigated by Mr. Nelson did he find the people to be actually in need of the children's services. Trouble Ahead. The trustees of the public library at Maiden, Mass., announce that they will not "put in circulation a novel which a decent woman may not read to a decent man without blushing." As this is a standard of excellence which cannot be applied a priori, it may be necessary to appoint a committee to exercise the novel censorship. The difficulty of finding a deecnt man will be equalled only by that of submitting a decent woman to such an ordeal, says the New York Post. The latter might, after a time, grow hardened and maintain a deathly pallor while reading aloud from dubious works. It would not always be easy to distinguish a blush of modesty from what novelists call " a flush of vexation." The man might even blush while tkfc woman remained pale, and, lastly, the blushing might be caused not by the book, but by the presence of the man. <&0%£&r Hears tbo Signature c? tn U » For Ove» 30 Veara.

The earnings of the great steel corporation afford an infallible index to the prosperity of the country. The figures for the calendar year 1906 are Impressive, the total being over $156,« 619,000, against 1119,850,000 in 1905, $73,176,000 in 1904, and $109,271,000 in 1903.

Htk head on his arm. his whole tired body relaxing in this new restfulness, he opened his eyes and iooked off, to the south, idly scanning the horizon, his eye* level with the sandy plain. Then something made him sit quickly up and stare intently, bis bared bead craning forward. To the south, lying low, a mass of light clouds, volatile, changing with opalescent lights as he looked. A little to the left of these clouds, while his head wa3 on the sand; he thought his eyes had detected certain squared lines. Now he scanned the spot with a feverish eagerness^ At first there was •nly the endless empty blue. Then, when his wonder was .quite dead and he was about to lie down, there came a miracle cf miracles,—a vision in the clear blue of the sky. And this time the lines were coherent. He, the dyins sinner, had caught, clearly and positively for one awful second in that sky, the flashing impression of a cross. It faded as soon as it came, vanished while he- gaced, leaving him in gasping, fainting wonder at the marvel. And then, before he could think or question himself, the sky once more yielded its vision; again that image of a cros« stayed for a second in hi3 eyes, and this time he thought there were figures about It.

Set on a hill were many low, square' flat-topped houses, brown in color against the gray ground about them. In front of these houses was a larger structure of the same material, a church-like building such as he had once seen In s picture, with a wooden cross at the top. In an open square before this church were many moving persoiM strangely garbed, seeming to be ledlaa*. /They surged, for a moment' about the door 6t the church, then tacte*} to either side as if in answer to a signal, and he saw a procession of Use game reople coming with bowed hijg>, scourging themselves with shett whips and thorned • u i n h t i Ar their, head walked a biowe cowled' monk, holding aloft be. for* Mm a small cross, attached by a to U s waist As he led the proforward, another crowd, some of them being other brown-cowled mc-nks, parted before the church door, and th&p, clearly before his wondering eyls was erected a great cross Oft* isj|sfc£4 «&w the crucified Sa- He snnvthoee in the procession form sheet *gft*^(p*s sad fling themselves upon the grooad before It, while all the others rouniaooot-hnelt.

He sank back on the sands in an ecstasy*} His Witness had come—not as be thought it would, in a moment of spiritual uplift; but when he had been sank by his own sin to fearful depths. Nor had it brought any message of glory for himself, of gifts or powers. Only the mission of suffering and service and suffering again at the end. But it was enough.

Ha weakened, too, but the ireeeing cold of the desert night aroused all hit latent force. He struggled to his fast, and laid a course by the light of the moon- hack to the spring he had left iff the morning. How be reached the hills -again he never knew, nor how he made his way over them and back to the settlement. But there he lay sick for many days, his mind, when he felt it at all, tossing idly upon' the great sustaining consciousness of that vision in the desert The day which he next remembered clearly, and from which he dated hi* new Hfe, was one when he was back in the Meadows." He had ridden there in the first vagueness and weakness of his recovery, without purpose, yet feeling that he must go. What he found there made him believe he had been led to the spot Stark against the glow of the western sky aa he rode up, was a huge cross. He stopped, staring in wonder, beliving it to be another vision; but it ctayed before him, rigid, bare, and uncompromising. He lft his horse and climbed up to i t At its-has* was piled a cairn of stones, and against this was a slab with an inscription:— "Here 180 Men. Women, and Children Were Massacred* in Cold'Blood' Early In September, 1857." On the cross itself was carved in deep letters:— . \ "Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord." He fell on his knees at the foot and prayed, not weeping nor in any fever of fear, but as one knowing his sin himself and those who preached in the tabernacle. For his noma hexhose the settlement of Amnion, sat In a rich little valley betwen the shoulders of the Pine mountains. ., Late .in .October there waa tflniaheji for fctai on <he outer edge of the* town-,' near the hank of a little hill-born stream, a roomy log-house, mudcKmked, with a water-tight roof of sprue* shakes and a floor of whipsawed plank,—a residence lit for one of the foremost teachers in the Church, an Elder after the Order of Molchiaedekt an eloquent preacher and one true to the blessed Gods. At one end of the cabin, a small room was partitioned off and a bunk built in i t A chair and a water-basin on a block comprised its furniture. This room be reserved for himself. As to the rest of the house, his ideas were at first cloudy. He knew only that he wished to Berve. Gradually, however, as his" mind worked over the problem, the answer came with considerable clearness. He thought about It much on his way north* for h* was obliged to-make • trip to Salt Lake City to secure supplies for the winter, some needed articles of furniture for the house, and his wagons and stock. He was helped In his thinking on a day early in the journey. Near a squalid hut on the outskirts of Cedar City he noticed a woman staggering under an armful of wood. She was bareheaded, with hair disordered, her cheeks hollowed, and her skin yellow and bloodless. He remembered the 'Are You a Damned Mormorr?" and the sin of his Church. The burden of his prayer was, "O God, my own sin cannot be forgiven—I know it well—but let me atone for th-s sins of this people and let me guide them aright. Let me die on this cross a hundred deaths for each life they put out, or as many nore as shall be needed to save them." H* was strong in his..faith again, conscious that he himself was lost, but burning to save others, and hopeful, too, for he believed that a miracle had been vouchsafed to him in the desrt. Nor would the good padre, at the head of his procession of penitentB in his little mission out across the desert, have doubted less that H was a miracle than did this unhappy apostle of Joseph Smith, had he known the circumstance of its timeliness; albeit he had become familiar with such phenomena of light and air in the desert tale he had heard when he came down. He thought she must be that wife of Bishop Snow who had been put away. He rode up to the cabin as the woman threw her wood (nBide. She was weak and wretched-looking in the extreme, i house, glowing, as to one side of her CHAPTER XXI. The Sinner Chastens Himself. How to offer the greatest sacrifice— how to do the greatest service—these had become his problems. He concerned himself no longer with his own exaltation either in this world or the world to come. He resolved to stay south, fearing vaguely that in the north he would be in conflict with the priesthood. He knew not how; he felt that he was still sound in his faith, but he felt, too, __ Bome^unde/ln^d antagonism between ) now. In about two week*-'* ^And he pat the spare so viciously to his horse that he was nearly unseated by the startled animal's leap. Off on the Q&CA.. road again he thought it out Marriage had not been ]fi his mind when he spofce to i h f woman. He had meant only..k> glx# her a homo. But to her the idea had come naturally from his words, and he began to see that it was, indeed, not an unnatural thing to do. He dwelt long on this new idea, picturing at intervals the woman's lack of any charm rr beauty, her painful emaciaticn, her weakness. As he entered Brlghams office In Salt Lake City some days later, there passed out by the same door a woman whom he seemed dimly to remember. The left half of her face was disfigured by a huge flaming scar, and he saw that she had but one hand! "Who was that woman?" he asked Brigham, after they had chatted a little of other matters. '-That's poor Christina Lund. You ought to remember her. She was In your hand-cart party. She's having a pretty hard time of i t You see, s h e frose off one hand, so now she can't work much, and then she froze her face, so she ain't much for looks any longer—in fact, I wouldn't say Christina was much to start with, judging from the half of her face that's still good—and so, of course, she hasn't been able to marry. "The Church helps her a little now and then, but what troubles her most is that she'll lose her glory if she ain't married. You see, she ain't a worker and she ain't handsome, so who's going to have her sealed to him?" "I remember her now. She pushed the cart with her father in it from the Platte crossing, at Fort Laramie, clear over to Echo canyon, when all the fingers of one hand came off on the bar of the cart one afternoon; and then her hand bad to be amputated. Brother Brigham, she shouldn't be cheated of her place in the Kingdom." "Well,- she ain't capable, and she ain't a pretty person, so what can she do?" "I believe if the Lord is willing i will have her sealed to me." "It will be your own doings, Brother Rae. I wouldn't take it on myself to counsel that woman to anybody." "I feel I must do it, Brother Brigham." "Well, so be it if you say. She can be sealed to you and be a star in your crown forever. But I hope, now that you've begun to build up your kingdom, you'll do a little better, next time. There's a lot of pretty goodlooking young women came in with a party yesterday—" "All in good time, Brother Brigham! If you're wilMncr, I'll pick up my sec ond on the way south." "Well, well, now that's good!" and the broad face of Brigham glowed with friendly enthusiasm. "You know I'd suspicioned more than* once that you wasn't overly strong on the doctrinal point of celestial marriage. I hope your second, Brother Joel, is a little fancier than this one." "She'll be a better worker," he replied. <,,r~'ell, they're the most satisfactory in the long run; I've found that out myself. At any rate, i*'s best to lay the foundations of your kingdom with workers, the plainer ^he better. After that, a man can afford something in the ornamental line now and then. Now, I'll send for Christina and tell her what luck she's in. She hasn't had her endowments yet, so you might as well go through those with her. Be at the endowment-house at five in the morning." And so it befell that Joel Rae, Elder after tie Order of Melchisedek, and Christina Lund, spinster, native of Denmark, were on the following day, after the endowment-rites had been administered, married for time and eternity. From the altar they went to the wagons and began their journey south.

The Coming of the Woman-Child* The next day he sent across the settlement for the child, waiting for her with mixed emotions,—a trembling merge of love and fear, with, something, indeed, of awe for this woman* child of her mother, who had come to him so deviously and with a secret significance so mighty of portent at his own soul. When they brought her in at last, he had to brace himself te meet her. She came and stood before him, one foot a little advanced, Several dolls clutched tightly under one arm, and her bonnet swinging in the other hand. She looked up at him fearlessly, (fuestioningly, but with no sign of friendliness. He saw and felt her mother in all her being, in her eyes and hair, in the lines of her soft little face, and indefinably in her way of standing or ''moving. He was seized with a sudden fear that the mother watched him secretly out of the child's eyes, and with the child's lips might call to him accusingly, with what wild cries of anguish and reproach he dared not guess. He strove to say something to her, but his lips were dry, and he made only some halfarticulate sound, trying to force a smile of assurance. Then the child spoke, her serious, questioning eyes upon him unwaver« ingly. "Are you a damned Mormon?" (TO B E CONTINUED.) G0AT3 CLEAR BRUSH LAND. "I am Elder Rae. I want to know if you would care to go to Amalon with me when I come back. If you do, you can have a home there as long as you like. It would be easier for you than here." She had looked up quickly at him in much embarrassment. She smiled a little when he had finished. "I'm not much good t o work, but I think I'd get stronger if I had plenty to eat. I used to be right strong and well." "I shall be along with my wagons in two weeks or a little more. If you will go with me then I would like to have you. Here, here is money to buy you food until I come." "You've heard of me, have you— that I'm a divorced woman" "Yea, I know." She looked down at the ground a moment, pondering, then up at him with sudden resolution. "I can't work hard and—I'm n o t - pretty any longer—why do yon want to marry me?" Her question made him the more embarrassed of the two, and she saw as much, but she could not *ell why it was. "Why," he stammered, "why,—you see—but never micdL I ni^st hurry on khalt was made while he went for the face. She was, also, in a state of daze that left her able to say but little. Proud and harpy and ailent, her sole remark, the first day of the trip, was: "Brigham—now—he make such a lovely, bee-yoo-tiful God in heaven!" But his work of service had only begun. As they went farther south he began to make inquiries for the wandering wife of Elder Tench. He came upon her at length as she was starting north from Beaver at dusk. He prevailed upon her to stop with his party. "I don't mind to-night, sir. but 1 must be off betimes in the morning." But in the morning he persuaded her to stay with them. "Your husband is out of the country now, tut he's coming back soon, and he will stop first at my house when he does come. So stay with me there and wait for him." She was troubled by this at first, but at last agreed. "If you're sure he will come there first—" She refused to ride in the wagon, however, preferring to walk, ami strode briskly all day In the wake of the cattle. When they reached Cedar Citv a Flock Quickly Makes. Away with Tangle of Briars. A flock of Angora goats was put on a rocky hillside that it was desired to have cleared and put into grass. It was such a tangle of brush and briars that it was with.difficulty one could make a way through it. The goats actually ate .their, way in until it was penetrated with paths In all directions. After the leaves within reach were eaten they would stand on their hind feet with their forefeet in the branches and so eat the leaves higher up, or, if the brush was not too large, would throw their weight against and bend it to the ground, where others of the flock would help strip it of its foliage. The leaves would come out again only to be eaten off, then sprouts would come from the roots to share the same fate, until at the end of the second summer everything in the shape of a brush not- over six feettall, except' the pines and laurel, were completely killed and white clover was beginning to appear. These goats, with their long, curly white fleeces, attracted more attention than anything else on the place, hut, as can be imagined, they had to be well fenced In for they would run over a stone wall like dogs.

The Anarchist [Copyrtg-ht, 1908, by MoClure Newspaper Bjmdioate.] John Cunningham had been governor of Dartmoor prison for thirteen years, and during that long interval not a convict had succeeded in making his escape. The governor flattered himself ou this f.|ct. He lived four miles from tbe priotai, and the less he visited it the better things were run. Governor CuuulngluW finally decided to write a book 0^ criminology. That was u perfectly uuturul thing, since, he had so many specimens at hand. Ue meant that book to be a standard and to contain matter to astonish the world. He was entirely ignorant of his subject, but he went to work like u man who meuus business. To get his data he had to have prisoners brought before him to be questioned and to have their heads examined. The governor had boasted more than once that he could tell a predisposed criminal tun rods away. ^ n One of the prisoners called before the governor was James Broughton, who had received a sentence of five years for embezzlement. The family was a respectable one, and this was the first offense for a hundred years. Broughton himself had anything but criminal tendencies. He was well educated, well appearing and was remarked for his intelligence. The governor found in Broughton the acme for which he sought. lie put him down as a man who was born with the instincts of a thief. He did not credit him with ordinary Intelligence. He found him a victim of homicidal mania. Broughton had entered prison determined to make his escape if it was within the possibilities. After a year's good conduct he was named for the agricultural gang, the trusties who mowed the meadows and raised a share of the fresh vegetables consumed in the prison. He had friends outside to aid him in so far as furnishing him a suit of citizen's clothes and a small sum of money. He had made up his inh*d to go to South America, and he* ujfst have several hundred dollars. The fact that he knew not where to raise the money prevented his escape for mouths. It was not until after the Governor Cunningham's reign, ha was overanxious for the man's capture. In the course of a month fifty different man were arrested in different parts of England, but of course none of them proved to be the person wanted. Not until Broughton reached South America and knew that be could not be extradited did he give himself away.

As the agricultural gang marched back to prison one evening Broughton was missing, and the alarm was given. lie had found the suit, had been met by a friend with a horse„and buggy, and by the time the guards were scouring the country for him the convict was at the governor's house. A rather queer thing had happened to the governor teu years before, and as .the incident had been published it was common property In prison and out. He had made a trip to Russia, aided au auarchlst without knowing' what the man was, and after being shut up In a fortress for a mouth he had been given his litwrty uud escorted to the frontier. This humiliation raukled in his breast, and he was »not backward about saying to freeman or convict that he would do mosT-iinything to got square with the tti government, lie had been so oittsj ken that he had received a liintc, from his own government to moderate his speech. lie took warning by it, but he still chafed. The telephone called the governor up to inform him that a convict had escaped, nnd while he was, fussing about it the card of a strange* was brought in. The name was that of a Russian, and the governor at once thought of anarchists and nihilists and arbitrary measures and became hot. There was, a confab lasting an hour. The Russian did not hesitate to conlide In the governor. He informed him that a plot was on foot to overturn the government and raise a republic on its ruins. He was asked to assist In the conspiracy. He knew that such action would make him amenable to the law, and yet he remembered the dreary days and nights in that cell in the fortress. He had never talked with a more intelligent man. He had never met with another foreigner who spoke the English language so correctly. The w a n i n g received by the great man was ringing in his ears, but he thought of the miserable food, the wet straw and the manner in which he had been bounced out of the czar's dominions and warned to stay out. The telephone gave him the particulars of the convict's escape nnd Inquired about offering a reward, but he wns too busy to attend to such trifles. He first said no, but as the Russian rose to leave the house the governor brought out a bag containing $500 in gold and placed it on the table and turned his back and began to hum the air of a tune. The Russian tumbled to the subscription and murmured his thanks. With the gold he picked up one of the governor's cards. An hour later a train was bearing him to Liverpool. He was •topped on the way and stopped again as he went aboard a steamer for South America, but that card of the governor carried him through. The search for Broughton was thorough and long drawn out As it was the first escape from Dartmoor under Hence tfce Tears* "It Is strange bow some people cry at weddings."

PRESIDENTIAL ELECTOR CURED. Scene of Wreak ami Death. Michigan Central train No. 31, known *s the "American Express," making up time crashed into a light engine on the dreaded Shanghai curvfL two milee west of Tpailaatl. at 3:39 fetlock Thursday afternoon, killing five men, fatally injuring o*fv an* strewing the tracks for a quarter-mile with serape of the engine and cam.' Friday morning General Sunt. Nutt began a rigid investigation into tne ?ause of the wreck. Two causes seemed to have eontrinatad. the failure of the block semaphore to work and indefinite orders. The light engine was handling lee cars at Shanghai and had received or* ders to run in on a aiding to clear the main line for the big express traU at 3:45. The express train had orders for a clear right of way without mentioning the ice train, and was making up, lost, time, running at nearly 70 mi lea an hour. Believing that he had six minutes leeway, Engineer Roe, of the light engine, palled out on the main line just aa the hjg engine came whip ling around the curve dragging its load of express and mail cars, Engineer Scallen knowing nothing of the ice train. . The engines met at the switch, the express en&In'e slicing cornerwiae at the light engine. The semaphore east of the switch must have fatted to work or else Engineer Scallen failed to see^t. asjtfce advent of the ice engine on the clock should have set it against the express. The express train was made op of a big Pacific engine, a mail car, fire express cars and a car for the train crew. It ordlnarilr leaves Detroit for Chicago at 1:06 p. m., but Thursday a press of business made it necessary to nin two sections and the section which was wrecked left the M\ C. depot in Detroit at t:57, nearly two hours late. - A LEGAL ODDITY. The Hc»n. Albert Merritt was for three year« a member of the New .Teraoy State Senate, was a Presidential Elector, and is now Treasurer and General Manager of the Consolidated Has Co.. of 150 Nassau street, New York City. Tn 1882 he suffered severely from urinary and digestive trouble. He was sick from "head to foot." He was advised to use Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy and IT ('URKO HIM ABSOLUTELY. He Common Drunksnneef, Brings a New Form of SeAxerree. One year at diligent and industrious service on a farm was <he sentence imposed by Judge. Adams, <J Kalamazoo, upon James Hawley, charged with common drunkenness and disorderJy conduct. The sentence is a most remarkable one, because of its oddity, and as far as known it ia the only sentence of tfle kind ever imposed upon a prisoner: If at the end <f the year Hawley has obeyed erery rule imiKwed by the court, he will be at liberty to do as lie pleases, enjoying the sRme rfgfcts as any one who has serred a sentence for an offense. Kives rules were Imposed by Judge Adams upon which Hawley must Act accordingly. Ms rihavlor must be good and he must do nothing to molest or cause (rouble to his neighbors. He must driak no Intoxicants. He must ant rialt a barroom, saloon or gambling boose, or associate with any persons of had character. He must apply all of his earnings to keep himself and thr.se dependent upon him and must at aft times be diligent and indnstriooa. Mr. Perry Wrftee Up the Triata of « FIret.Termer. • Rep. J. M. Perry, of Oscoda, has attacked the house in a two-column article in the Tustjn Times', his hegaa paper, which he owns, and the faonee is boiling over with wrath at the audacious first termor. Hia letter was read .Monday evening to aa indignation meeting of 30 repreeentatlvea. One member has expressed the opinion that Rep. Perry should be charged with contempt. ' "•• The letter gives an account of hie experience aa a legislator. He aays ho came to the oapltol, and after climbing two flights of stairs he found the aec* ond termers had come up in an elevator. The second termers, Mr. Perry aims at particularly. He went by mistake through the main entrance, hut later entered by the cloak room, where a colored gentleman helped him off with hla coat, brushed him and prepared him. Since then, Mr. perry says, tL»j colored gentleman baa been regularly appointed, and Mr. Perry now takes off his own coat, and (he says) the colored gentlemen smokes and reads a yellow-backed novel, and haa a white assistant. Mr. Perry says he haa drawn pay six times, though he haa done only 12 hours' work. For the legislature's It heurs' work the people will pay $50,- 000, he estimates. He says his bill as made out for him for hla expenses to the Alger funeral was in excess of his expenditures and he wanted It corrected, but he was told that all the bills were uniform. One item of 11.84 for a meal on the train especially surprised him, aa he, not knowing the state would pay, bad eaten 15 cents' worth at a lunch counter. Bills presented by second termers, Mr. Perry thinks, are passed under suspension of the rules. First termers' bills go to committee. First termers, he humorously says, may not introduce the three favorite: motions of second term men;, to suspend the rules, to dispense with reading a bill, to adjourn. He even declares, to the great indignation of Speaker Whelan's friends, that the speaker once recognized the motion to adjourn of a member who was not in the house at all on that day. Mr. Perry thinks the people would he very indignant if they knew the alleged state of affairs. , (, Many membera-cnhslaer the Perry outbreak as*jbf api eorrfe^nienee except as a humorous" incident—^others are more serious.rs^fcing that the^immensely popular Speaker i WtieJan' Is criticised. Mr. Perry is a banker In Tustia, and highly regarded. Mr. Perry is much astonished at the rumpus his letter, has made. "Why, 11 was all a big joke ob me," said the banker-legislator, •'At'tadking the house or showing, contempt of, it was far from my thoughts. Some -folks in our town joked me as to whether I was doing my work, and 1 just wrote some stuff to the editor of the paper, making a little fun out of the whole situation, and, really, I was joshing myself more than anyone else. The house must not take it seriously, it was all, a joke." I A * B S H m OF ARMY MPI, The White (lephant. Negotiations for the sale of 7Aon City, the White aUenhant of the Dowieites, may be called off because of the publicity which haa attended the negotiations. It was Wilbar Volga's desire, according to D. L.

It was the plan, Mr. McKay said, to make the city the headquarters of the Flying Rollers as 1t was the headquarters of the Dowieitea, If the deal went through. The transfer was not to affect the religious standing of the two sects, being chiefly a commercial transaction. Wants His Daughter.

The advocates of the metric system want no better justification than tables Just prepared for the year book of the British Auctioneers' institute. It Is learned from this that the price of wheat is made and the cereal Is sold in 20 different ways in England, Scotland and Wales. It is measured variously by the quarter, comb, load, boll, bushel, barrel, hundredweight, cental, windle and hobbet Further confusion is caused by varying weights of a bushel in different parts of the country. A boll is three bushels in some places and four and sfx in others. There are similar absurd variations in other weights and measures. For instance, a stone of meat in eight pounds, a stone of iron 14 pounds, a stone of cheese, 16 pounds and a stone of hemp 32 pounds. There are seven different areaa of the standard acre In Great Britain.

Tbat is the message which a former victim of neuralgia sends to those who are still in its grasp.

She says: "My trouble began about six years ago and I did not rest as I should have, but kept up about my many duties. After a time I became go weakv I could not do any work at all. I had severe backaches and such dreadful headaches In the back part and top of my head. My eyes were easily tired and at times I saw black 6pots before them. I consulted several doctors but without the slightest benefit. The pains were so intense that my hair turned white.

In Cameron County, Texas* the ears are setting on the stalks when the tows farmer is planting his crop. "Roasting ears" are in the market in that region in the early spring, as well as in the late fall, and at Christmastide. Take alfalfa, also: The Northern : farmer who is satisfied with three or four cuttings a year from his alfalfa field will hardly believe even the conservative facts about alfalfa in Cameron County, Texas. Here the farmer harvests seven or eight cuttings in the first year. Sugar cane, as is generally known, is grown by planting the stalks themselves in furrows, but this does not have to be done every year. In the Rio Grande Valley of Texas a single planting will last for eight or ten year&. Another point: Rio Grande cane contains about thirty per cent, more sugar than that of other localities. It was this fact that won the gold medal at the St. Lduis Exposition for cane from the Ciosner plantation, near Hidalgo, Texas, which is •fifty miles above Brownsville.

" ., > When first opened the house was a' matter of the utmost curiosjt* to visitors^ Rural" legislators and their friends looked with, astonishment at its thickly carpeted halls, its many bathawms, its heating arrangements,, its electric bells, its lights and all its modern conveniences. Hardest of all to, understand was the hotel dining-room, Instead*1 of one or two long tables it had provision' for seating, guests in groups of two. three, four or more. ThTs, however, was the smallest Innovation' of the hotel dining-room. Farmers accustomed to drive to town with a feed of oats in the wagon for their horses and to dine at the general table of a small inn at a price sometimes as* low as 25 cents, never above half a dollar, heard with sceptical astonishment of the doings at the new hotel. The dtntttjrwatt\nmATihtor' learned, in as many as six courses, with cheese at the end that smelled dreadful and coffee without milk In little cups that did not hold more than two thimblefuls. r "' ,/ Some of the farmers sneaked in shame-facedly and tried that dinner, which, of coarse, was served at midday. The experience of having fish, served as a separate course immediately after the 'soup Was alarming; for some feared that there might be nothing else to come. Then those queer made dishes that came after the fish were puzzling. It was only when the roast came on with the familiar vegetables that the farmers began to feel themselves at home, and even then the shifting of plates and knives was embarrassing. Some noticed that « few guests had wine bottle* at "their places, "antf at this the farmers from the back country shook their heads, and wondered what Delaware was coming to. It was all well enough for a man to slip into the barroom, and gulp a glass of whisky alone, or with a friend if he happened to be thirsty, but this thing of drinking wine with your meals was a bad sign. When the dessert time came everybody ordered everything on the bill of fare, as, indeed, the farmers had mostly all the way through the meal, but the cheese was Lent away In haste untasted, and there was a firm demand early in the course of the dinner for coffee in large cups with milk. There was a good deal of grumbling W**» tt was found that, eat as fast as « aftea might, he could hardly get thnmgb the dinner in less than half an hour, and much surprise Was ex-1 a r e m & n y sorts of needles, for.surpassed that some of the guests sat «*ons'v cooks', glovemakers', weavers', the better part of ah hour at table. x Those farmers who were not too much ashamed* of what they had. done that dinner.

The point of a needle is a very important part of that useful little instrument, and there are many points about needles calculated to Interest the general public. The' daily consumption of needles all over the world Is something like 3,000,000, while every year the women of the United States break, lose and use some 300,- 000,000 of those tiny tools. Few people While threading 'a needle have ever given a thought to the various processes through which the wire must pass before it comes out a needle. Yet the manufacture of needles includes some 21 different processes from cutting the wire and threading the double needles by the eyes to separating the two needles on the one length of wire, heading, hardening in oil, cleaning out the sides of the eye, point-setting, and final polishing.

"Fof the last 2f> years," writes a Maine man, "I've been troubled .with Dyspepsia and liver complaint, and have tried about every known remedy without much in the way of results until I took up the food question. "A friend recommended Grape-Nuts food, after I had taken all sorts of medicines with only occasional, temporary relief. "This was about nine months ago, and I began the Grape-Nuts for breakfast with cream and a little sugar.; Since then I have had the food for at least one meal a day, usually for breakfast. "Words fail to express the benefit I received from the use of Grape-Nuts. My stomach is almost entirely free from pain and my liver complaint is about cured, I have gained flesh, sleep well can eat nearly any kind of food axcept greasy, starchy things and am strong and healthy at the age of 70 years. "If I can be the means of helping any poor mortal who has been troubled with dyspepsia as I have been, I M I S T OR ACE E.MJLLCR "I am not feeling very w e l l / "I am so nervous it seems as though I should fly." "My back aches as though it would break." How often do you hear these significant expressions from w o m e n friends. More than likely you speak the same words yourself, and there is a cause. More than thirty years ago Lydia E. Pinkhamof Lynn, Mass. discovered the source of nearly all the suffering endured by her sex. ^Woman's Ills/' these two words are full of more misery to women than any other two words that can be found in the English 4angu&ge. Sodden faintingT .depression of spirits, reluctance to go anywhere, backaches, headaches, nervousness, sleeplessness, bearing* down sensations, displacements and irregularities are the bane of woman's existence. The same woman who discovered the cause of all this misery also discovered a remedy. Lydia B. Plak* ham's Vegetahle Compound made from native roots and herbs holds the record for a greater number of absolute cures of female ills than any other one remedy the world has ever known and.it is the greatest blessing which ever came into the lives of suffering w°n\e.n> . . Don't try to endore, but cure the cause of all your suffering. LydiaE. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound at once removes such troubles. The following letters "prove this: MRS.wrSTFORD Mrs. W. S. Ford of 198« Lanadowne St., Baltimore, Md. writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkhamf— •'For four year* any m> was a misery to me. I suffered from faragaJaritiee, suppression, terrihle draggjag sensations and extreme nervousness, I had given up all hops of ever being well again when Lydia E.

It ii not well to be too eager to ao quire wsalth, especially when It en tails long hours of work and constant anxiety. The other day a rich merchant of Illinois, traveling in England* wrote home to his son, who Is carrying oa the business: "I am a middleaged man," he said, "and I am just learning that it Is wisest to hasten slowly." In the anxiety to grow rich, he' "had "made too much haste, and had suffered seriously in health and in the reasonable enjoyment of life. He had worked all day and all night when occasion appeared to demand it; be had taken no count of days of rest, or any other time. It was work and scheme, scheme and work, all the time. He had at last awakened in his old age to the fact that he has made a great mistake. No one deprecates work, steady and persevering; for the* young man that is, in many instances, essential to any kind of success; but to make oneself a slave to the anxiety to become rich is another matter. That is just what many a husband and father is now doing. It Is the wife's duty, says New York Weekly, to check this; she should take care that he does not become so consumed by the notion that he must constantly improve his condition by unceasing labor, day after day, and thus let his life slip away and his health go with i t The anxiety to get wealth does not always end in constant work; it often entails a growing carelessness for the difference between right and wrong and the welfare of others. Very frequently a woman forces her husband along this dangerous path instead of keeping him In check. She sees money coming in, and she spends It, not troubling about how he works to get it or in which way he obtains the coveted wealth. •^•tfkaaMWM 35« EVENSffl) A PORMIlt BKNTON HAWHOKITI CONFCME8 MURDIR OP WIFE AND CHILD.

A vast increase in the importations of briarwood pipes Is noted, which is complimentary to the taste of old smokers. There may be solace in a good cigar, but there's likewise comfort and joy In a sweet pipe, declares the Boston Herald. It is much affected nowadays out of doors and on the busy street, but that is a violation of food taste. The den is the place for the pipe. Tqe extraordinary resuscitating -90mrMlight recently reecived a curious Illustration in the silver mines at Laurium, Greece. A mine had been abandoned 2,000 years, when some poppy seed was found beneath the slag. The slag being removed, in a short time the entire space was covered with the most gorgeous show of poppies. Speaking of talking machines, India is a great country for this instrument, and thousands of them are in use. The native who can command the price wants a talking machine, and the records he, delights in are those which reproduce the native songs. The American machine takes the lead, and there is room for more. A full-fledged liar dwells in Wilmington, Del. He solemnly declares that he placed a brooding hen on a "setting" of cold-storage eggs. The result was that she hatched 17 chickens which had fur Instead of feathers, and lie attributes this phenomenal result to the fact that nature- -adapts all animals to their environment. A peculiarity of the eyeball of the mole is that it can be projected forward several times its own diameter •4W7»nd the orbit and retracted in like auusaer. Dr. Lindsay Johnson notes taat this is necessary for vision, as the animal's dense fur so covers the eye that the making of an opening is the only way to see. The Siamese government, which floated a loan of $5,000,000 in* 1905, is reported to have placed another bond Issue of $15,000,000 at four and onehalf per cent., which was taken up by London, Paris and Berlin bankers on January 21.

Wright, formerly of Benton Harbor, Mich., but now ot Denver, CoL. who confessed th« murder of ale wife, Mrs, Cora Hulf Wright, and his daughter, Genevieve, Sunday night, on Tuesday morning reiterated his confession. Bu$ during the evening on the advice of an attorney,' he attempted to repudiate the confession he made and signed before Chief of Police Delaney and four members of the department. Sstella Good, Wright's sweetheart, was arrested at Colorado Springs and brought to Denver. She was held tor investigation. The police Mve decided that she did not plot or conspire with Wright to murder his family. In jail she expressed scorn far a man who would commit cold-blooded murder. Surgeons performed an autopsy upon the bodies of Mrs. Wright and the little girl. The exact nature of the poison was not determined, and must wait upon a chemical analysis. In the course of his confession Wright said that the poison acted first upon the little girl. "The gal," said Wright, "became sick at the stomach, and her mother led her to the sink and was holding her head. "I watched them from an adjoining room. Suddenly the mother reeled and fell one way and the child the other. Three minutes later they were dead." Wright shows little feeling. Shown a picture of Eetella Good, he exclaimed, "Ain't she a peach," and his eyes glittered while his cheeks flushed with color. It is the opinion of the police and medie&l men who have seen Wright that he is a degenerate. His defense in all probability will be insanity. He seems too shrewd and alert to give a detailed statement of his actions on Sunday night. It seems certain that his illness was feigned. A physician who examined Wright expressed the opinion that he has ex-ophthalmic goitre, whloh often causes protruding eyes and rapid pulse, which at first seemed symptoms of poisoning. MON1T.

Each had a quantity of whisky and they ^ proceeded to have a spree before they ! business. turned in for the night. Hawkins was a Catholic and Ward an Orangeman and when the subject of religion came up they had a wordy war. Finally they got into the bunks still quarreling, but Hawkins says he was just going to sleep when he heard Ward moving about and he saw him reaching for his ride. Believing that he was about Nominees of Democrat Party for 8prifig election.

He talked freely to her oa the way, though it ia probable that he left ia her mind -ittle more than dark confusion, beyond the one clear fact of oV wish. As to this, she knew ahe must have ao deet*e. but to comply. Reaching Salt Lake CUy^they went at once to BrigJHuo'* oflce. When they came out they came possessed of a document in duplicate, reciting that they-both did "covenant, promise, and agree to dissolve all the relations which have hitherto existed between us aa husband and wife, and to keep ourselves separate and apart from each other from this time forth." This waa the simple divorce which Brigham was good enough to grant to such of the Saints as found themselves unhappily married, and wished it. As Joel Rae handed the Prophet the fee of ten dollars, which it was his custom to charge for the service, Brigham made some timely remarks. He said ae^feared that Martha had been perversl and rebellious; that her first husband had found her sa; and that It was doubtless for the good of all that her second had takesTtb^e resolution to divorce her. He' waa afraid that Brother Joel was an ihferic • Judge of women; but he bad surely shown himself to be generous in the provision he was making for the support of this contumacious wife. They parted outside the door of the little office, and be kissed her for the first time since they had been married —on the forehead. Christina would now be left alone with the 'cares of the house, and he knew he ought to have some one to help her. The fever of sacrifice was also upon him. And so he found another derelict, to whom he was sealed forever. At a time of more calmness he might have balked at this one. She was a cross, to be sure, and it was now hia part in life to pear crosses. But there were plenty of these, and even one vowed to a life of sacrifice, he suspected, need not grossly abuse the powers of discrimination with which Heaven had £een _fit to endow him. But he had lately been on the verge of a seething maelstrom, balancing there with unholy desire and wickedly looking far down, and the need to atone for this sin excited him to indiscretions. It was not that this star in his crown was in.her late thirties and less than lovely. He had. learned, indeed, that in the game which, for the chastening of his soul, he now played with the Devil, it were best to choose stars whose charms could excite to little but conduct of a saintlike seemliness. The fat, dumpy figure if this woman, therefore, and her round, flat, moonlike face, her mouse-colored wispa of hair cut squarely off at the back of her neck, were points of a merit that was in its whole effect nothing lees than distinguished. But she talked. Her tones played with the constancy of an eve-living fountain. Artlessly she lost herself in the sound of their muck, until she also lost her sense of proportion, of light and shade, of simple, Christian charity. Her name was Lorena Sears, and she had come in with one of the late trains of converts, without friends, relatives, or means, with nothing but her natural gifts and an abiding faith in the saving powers of the new dispensation. Aad though she waa so alive in her faith, rarely Informed in the Scriptures, bubbling with enthusiasm for the new covenant, the new Zion, and the second coming of the Messiah, there had seemed to be no place for her. She had not been asked in marriage, nor had she found it easy to secure work to support herself. "She's strong,*' said Brigham, to his inquiring Elder, "and a good worker, but even Brother Heber Kimball wouldn't marry her; and between you and me, Brother Joel, I never knew Heber to shy before at anything that would work. Yon can see that, yourself, by looking over his household." But after the needful preliminariea, and a very little coy hesitation on the part of the lady, Lorena Sears, spiaster, native of Elyria, Ohio, waa duly sealed to, for time and eternity, and became a star forever in the crown of Joel Rae, Elder after the Order of Melchiaedek in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saiats and President of the Amaloa Stake of Zion.

But in, Army Ion they were untainted by this heresy, choosing to rely upon what Brigham had said in moments more inspired. He had taught that Joseph was to be the first person regurrected; that after his frame bad been knit together and clothed w.ith immortal flesh he. would resurrect those who had died in the faith, according to their rank to the priesthood; then all his wives am} children. Resurrected Elders, having had the keys of the resurrection conferred upon them by Joseph, their own- households; and when the last of the faithfu? .had come forth, another great work would be performed; the Gentiles would then be resurrected to act as servants and slaves to the Saints. In his lighter moments Brigham had been wont to name it couple of Presidents of the United States who would then act as his valets. (TO BIC CONTINUED.) 4X POINTING WAY TO SINNERS.

His first thought w a s to go down to the office and turn in the lost jewel; his second was to wait and give the loser a jjlad •jjirprise. They were discussing the matter in the lunch room when he went down. While he w a s out on the promenade there had been an arrest In the hotel. The wffe of u prominent manufacturer stopping a t the house bad made an outcry that t h e Jewel had been taken from her room during <a momentary absence. Suspicion was directed to a waiter named Snunders, who had coaie up to the next room with uu order, and when suddenly accused of the theft he became confused and embarrassed and had been p u t under arrest and taken away. None of those who s a w him and heard hi-* lame explanations could make the least excuse for him. A search had fulled to find the jewel on his person, but it was, of course, argued that he had passed it to u confederate. The major heard all this and much more, and he had started in to defend the waiter and talk about the unreliability of circumstantial evidence and cite instances when the lady assured her hearers for the tenth time that she had the jewel in her hand and was looking at the hinge of the pin not a moment before she left the room. She was most positive that she left it behind her on the dresser. She would j swear to that in all the courts of the land. The aggressiveness and the positiveness of the lady rather startled the major. If she could not be made to believe that she had dropped the thing in the hall where he had found it, what sort of a position would It put him in? The major kept the sunburst in his pocket. Saunders had been put through the third degree a t the police station and given his liberty. H e had come down from London fairly recommend ed, and up to that moment no fault ,r *>-«'*' quarter of an ijour Saunders arose, uttered bis heartfelt thanks one* more and took himself off. He had been gone tea minutes when the major felt la his pocket for the sunburst and its box. for alt Courts axdi They were, gone; also bis wallet and ' j S ^ j f L ® 1 * - bis watch. Saunders had cleaned him i !©»•£. ^ T out as they sat talking. It wus a beau- I {JBLfeLSH) tiful case of pocket picking and thanks : ^ -"^WW rendering in one, and, though it put the major iu a hole financially, he heaved a sigh of relief as be realized that he was rid of the sunburst a t last. Saunders had taken It from t h e room and dropped It In bis hurry to get away. M. QUAD. TH> ORIOIiUU. UXAT1YECMSW fstrlrftU otfii sough cum esqownnibtlUprs tt!h o_s t' •pobinhvgO.

When the waiter had been freed the major's quandary was worse than ever. If lie restored the jewel, he would be asked why he delayed.

Let us attend to business." But the offender was relating his religious experience, and, though it was at so great a length, John Wesley evidently thought that no one had a right to interfere with it. He was therefore allowed to continue, but the moment came when Charles could contain himself no longer. "I'nless he stops," he whispered to John, "I'll leave the conference." By this time John was enjoying the man's simple story* a Q d he only turned and whispered to some one sitting near: .- "Reach Charles his hat."

Efforts of a homely girl who tries to look pretty are very often vain. AND SICK YET MUST W8RK "Man may work from sun to sun but woman's work is never done," In order to keep the home neat and pretty, the children well dxeased and tidy, women overdo and often suffer in silence, drifting along from bad to worse, knowing well that they ough> to have help to overcome the pains and aches which daily make life a burden. It is to these women that Lydia E. PihkhanVa Vegetable Compound, made from native roots and herbs, comes as a blessing. When the spit- - . Mm* - - .«* . ^ ^. K* its are depressed, the head and back M R S * A i i O . L Y OIM aches* there are dragging-down pains, nervousness, ale^lessneea, and reluctance to go anywhere, these are only symptoma which unless heeded, are soon followed by the worst forms of Female Complaints. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound keeps the feminine organism ina strong and healthy condition. It cures Inflammation, Ulceration, displacements, and organic troubles. In preparing for child-birth and to carry women safely through the Change of Life It is most efficient. Mrs. Augustus Lyon, of East Earl, Pa., writes:— Dear Mra. Pinkham:—" For a long time I suffered from female troubles and had all kinds of aches and pains in the lower part of back and sides, I could n o t sleep and had no appetite. Since taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and following the advice which you gave me I feel like a new woman and I cannot praise your medicine too highly." Mrs. Pinkham's Invitation to Women Women suffering from any form of female weakness are invited t o write Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass. Out of her vast volume of experience she probably has the very knowledge that will help your case.

The Central Education Board purposes using a> part of the great Income assured by John D. Rockefeller's gift of 132,000,000 in agricultural demonstration work in the south. The board wfll teach better use of the soil of a section which is greatly favored by nature and Badly neglected by man, in many respects and as to extensive regions. The instruction given will be in the form of example rather than precept. There will be enlightenment through the eye. It will take shape in crops which will appeal to the natural desire of southern land-owners and tenant farmers to make as much as possible from their cotton, corn, pastures, fruit and other products. The opportunity for improvement is immense. The average harvest in the south is a national disgrace, as to many staple! of agriculture. The yield ought to be more than doubled, In whole states, on the same acreage. There is defective tillage, lack of fertilizing and careless ignorance of the rotation of crops and the use of the soil. In great part these evils are due to want of knowledge of the soil and of the needs of farms. Gross mistakes are made for lack of information concerning seed and the adaptation of crops to fields. There is urgent need of enlightenment all along these lines. The money spent in teaching practical agriculture in the Bouth will, remarks the Cleveland Leader, be money well invested. It will return many fold to the section most directly interested and to the country as a whole. Play in Work. Thomas A. Edison, the famous inventor, announces that he will discontinue work and engage in play for a time. The statement was made on the day he was 60 years old. This does not mean, says Troy Times, that Mr. Edison intends to lapse into idleness. To a man of his sort mere idleness would no doubt be unendurable. But, having gained a competence as one result of what he calls 45 years of experimenting with electricity, with a view to developing commercial value, he will now pursue the study purely as a scientist. That additional benefits will come from such investigations as he will make is reasonably certain, for Mr. Edison himself has intimated his belief that, great as have been the achievements of electricity, we are still in the infancy of development. Meanwhile everyone will wish for Mr. Edison the utmost pleasure and happiness In the occupation to which he will devote a dignified leisure. It is not many years since Americans in England were criticized by Englishmen as using bad,. English. This all seems to be changed, for the other day Sidney Lee, a well-known British author, said in a lecture in jfjOndon that the Americans use better English than the English themselves, and some of the London newspapers agree with him. One of them, in speaking of Americans, says, Their best writers succeed in maintaining a purity of style—American law books, for instance, are models in this respect— which need not fear comparison with that of our own, and their best speakers are not only almost pedantically correct in their English, bnt have a copiousness of vocabulary rarely attained by English orators." Ice from the Alpine glaciers is being quarried now for distribution in large cities. Glacier ice Is perfectly pure and transparent, and has many qualities which are greatly appreciated by consumers. What a fine thing it would be, exclaims the Boston Budget, if we had a glacier or two here in New England! A young man in a Missouri town encouraged the undertakers some by standing en his head for 20 minutes for a wager. However, it cannot be said that a man who can see no better use of his head than to stand on it is much of a loss to the aggregated power of the community.

STRANGE MENTAL STATE After Mors Than a Year of Seeming Helpless Imbecility Hamberger • » com*i Normal. Puszisd the Dootors. Henry Hamberger has emerged from the strange state of.being ta v*hich he was received at the Ionia asylum for the criminal insane. Hamberger ip the Detroit boy who slew Charles J. Relndell. a bicycle repairer, ip his little shop on Capitol BQu&re, the evening of Dec. 2, 1899, by beating him to death with a piece of iron pipe. Prom the moment of his arrest, on his twentieth birthday; it will be remembered, Hamberger became as one dead, sitting with his head lowered, sever speaking—apparently insensible to everything. Hia first show of life was an attempt to cut his throat In the Wayne county jail. When the boy was received .at ;fbe asylum he realized absolutely nothing, was undressed and put to bed like an overgrown baby; was dressed by an attendant in the morning and seated in one of the wards, where he would remain all day in the drooping position noticed at his trial. His head bent forward on his breast; his arms hanging listlessly by the side of his chair; never so much as winking an eye for hours at a time. Occasionally an attendant passing his chair would lay Hamberger's hanging arms in his lap, and there they would remain immovable until again moved by the attendant, paying no attention to anyone and when spoken to could not be aroused. It was necessary to feed him with a Bpoon and occasionally lift him to his feet and walk him around the ward for exercise. After a year or eo of this piuzling condition It was discovered that Hamberger was becoming conscious, in a slight measure, that there was something going on about him. He could move his hands a little, and struggled to change his position. Then almost Imperceptibly, from, day to day his condition improved. Very slowly his faculties were aroused, and like a babe he began to take notice of things, was interested in what others were doing; joined his companions in playing checkers and other amusements, and a* he became able assisted in sweeping and cleaning the ward in which he was confined. Books were given him as gradually his field became larger, and he appeared to enjoy and understand, what he read. AH this time and until about a year ago he never spoke a word, and it was thought by some that the vocal cords were severed when he cut his throat in an attempt to commit suicide In Detroit, and that he would never be able to articulate. But one day after many attempts and with painful effort he managed to speak in a whisper, and with constant practice became able to converse fluently in whispers. Another day he was leized with a coughing spell and after recovering from that he started to«peak In a whi3per to an attendant, when to his astonishment he Spoke aloud. Soon after that his mother visited him, and when her son addressed her in ordinary tones of voice, her joy at his recovered speech was pathetic. She, like all good mothers, continued to love, and hope and pray for the ultimate recovery of her boy, during all the weary months his mind was a blank. Hamberger today, though not in a strictly normal condition, is a fine looking, upright, wide awake young man, intelligent, and energetic, and would attract favorable notice in any crowd. Dr. O. R. Long, superintendent of the asylum, says: "It is possible that Hamberger may in time become entirely normal and fit to be at large. I do not believe that he has now, or would develop criminal tendencies." As Hamberger was given by the court a life sentence, he can be restored to liberty only by the clemency of the governor. 00C AND CAT HAVE, SQUAMU Angor* elevate* her Ufr to Us) de» above, 4id SOJM (later nail etchings on Mr. B. a Terrier's Jaoe, and spat right -before- all the IVMUUI A littl* bit of furniture JaggllA* fc>H| lowed that ^provide* yftrlor exercise, and amusement for all assembled; f Wheft quiet was restore?

H. A. Dibble, the grange store official who, as a witness in a case tried in Allegan, told on the witness stand of looting that concern, on Tuesday changed his plea from not guilty to. guilty. He also presented a letter of Immunity from former Prosecuting Attorney Cross, which was given him before the conspiracy case by Cross if he would testify against the others and tell the Iruth. Attorney Kollen pleaded for leniency on the fact that Dibble would repay the grange store all that he had stolen, as far as his means would permits \ Judge Searle said that in view of these facts he would lighten the sentence. A fine o(, $500 or one year at Ionia was Imposed. Dibble paid the fine this affernoon.

It w w this earlier teaching that the faithful of Amnion clung to, perhaps not a little by reason that immediately over them was a spiritual guide who had been trained from infancy to know that salvation lay to bonef,— never in donbfc < For a sign of the end ther believed that on tho night before the day ot, |t- there would be no darkness. This jeould be as it had been before the birth of the Savior, as told in the Book of Mormon: "At the going down of the sun there was no darkness, and the people began to be astonished because there was no darkagas when the night came; and there «g« no darkness in all that night, but H was as Hght as if it were midday.'' They talked of little but this jnattev In that small pocket of the intermountain commonwealth, in Sabbath meetings and around the hearths at night. The Wild Ram of the Mountains tkongat all proselyting should cease im view of the.approaching end; that the.Wder= on .mission should wltkd f f f from the vineyard, shake the dust fronr thetr feet, and seal up the rebellious Gentiles to damnation. To this Elder Bell Wardle had replied, oomewhat testily: —----- "Well, now, since these valleys of Ephraim have got a little fattened a whole lot of us have got the sweeny, and our skins are growing too tight •«s>«ur flesh." He had been unable to that the Gentiles Were a lot, the lost sheep of the 64 tore el. On this occasion it •had require* all the tact of Elder Rae to 30othe the two good men into an amiable discussion of the time when Sidney Rigdon went- to the third heaven and talked face to face with <Jod They had agreed in the 'end, however nthat they were both of the royal aeed of Abraham, and were on the grand turnpike to exaltation. "< To these discussions and sermons the child, Prvdence, listened with intense interest, looking forward to the last day as an occasion productive of excitement even superior to that of her trips to Salt Lake City, where her father went to attend the October conference, and where she was taken to the theater. One day in this spring when she was 14. the good Bishop Wright, on his way down from BQX canyon with a load of wood, saw her Etriding up the road ahead of him.

But the Bishop still paused, looking toward the orchard. • ^WelL the fact la, Brother Joel, you see the Lord has made me feel to have Prudence for another star In my Crown of glory—-your daughter Prudence," he repeated as tbootber gazed at him with a sudden change of manner. "My daughter Prudence—little Proe —that child—that baby?"

"To tell yon the truth," he said, "I suspicion he'd Jest been pot* ting a new faucet in the elder barrel." When Prudence came in from the blossoming poach trees that night her father called her to him to sit on his lap in the dusk while the crickets sang, and grow sleepy as had been her baby habit. "What did Bishop Wright want?" she asked, after her head was pillowed pn his arm. Relieved that it waa over, now even a little amused, he told her:* "He wanted to tike my little girl away, to marry her." She waa silent for a moment, and then: ron, _ private talk about her; nobody knows ti«i.iin"on the road tha*. entered the l * a p her mother was; and they say t whoever she was you was never married to her, so she couldn't have been tfojsT right, but I ain't bigoted like some I could name, and I 'stand ready to be her Savior on Mount Zion."

"Himself has gone out there," Christina had answered with a wave of her hand, and using the term of respect which she always applied to her husband. He'went around the house, oat past the stable and corrahj -and across the irrigating ditch to where he saw Joel Rae leaning on the rail fence about tat peach orchard.

"Let's ask her," suggested the Bishop, disinclined to move. "Don't, don't ask her!" He seized the other by the arm. "Come, I'll explain; don't ask her now, at any rate—I beg of you as a gentleman—as a gentleman, for you are a gentleman." The Bi9hop turned somewhat impatiently, then remarked with a dignified severity: "Oh, 1 can be a gentleman whenever it's necessary!" They went across the fields toward the house, and the Bishop spoke further. "There ain't any need to get into "Wouldn't that be fine, and we could build each other up in the Kingdom.'' He held her tighter. "Surely, child, you couldn't marry him?"' "But of course I conld! Isn;t he tried in the Kingdom, so he is'sure to have all those thrones and dominions and powex?"- "But child, child! That old man with all his wives—" "But they say old men are safer than young men.

I never thought—of course I can't leave my little sorry father—not yet. I forgot that. I couldn't leave you. Now tell me about my mother again."

Then he turned to the revelation on celestial marriage given years after these words were writtn, and in the first paragraph read: "Verily, thus aaith the Lord unto you my servant Joseph, that inasmuch as you have inquired of my hand to know and understand wherein I, the Lord; justified my servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, as also Moses, David, and Solomon, my servants, as touching the principle and doctrine of their having many wives—" He turned from one to the other; from the many explicit admonitions and commands against polygamy, the denunciations of the patriarchs for their indulgence in the practice, to this last passage contradicting the others, and vexed himself with wonder. In the Book of Mormon, David was said to be wicked Tor doing this thing. Now in the revelation to Joseph he read, "David's wives were given unto him of me, by the hand of Nathan, my servant." He recalled old tales that were told in Nauvoo by wicked apostates and the basest of Gentue scandal-mongers; how that Joseph in the day of his great power had suffered the purity of his faith to become tainted; how his wife, Emma, had upbraided him so harshly for his sins that he, fearing disgrace, had put out this revelation as the word of God to silence her. He remembered that these gossips had said the revelation itself proved that Joseph had already done, before he received it, that which it commanded him to do, citing the clause, "And let my handmaid, Emma Smith, receive all those that have been given unto my servant Joseph, and who are virtuous and pure before me." They had gossiped further, that still fearing her rebellion, he had worded a threat for he-r in the next clause, "And I command my handmaid, Emma Smith, to abide and cleave unto my servant Joseph and to none else. But if she will not abide this commandment she shall be destroyed, salth the Lord: for 1 am the Lord thy God, and will destroy her if she abide noi in my law . . . and again verily 1 say. let mine handmaid forgive my servant Joseph his trespasses and then shall hhe be forgiven her trespasses.' This was the calumny the Gentile gossips back in Nauvoo would have had the world believe,—that this great doctrine of the Church had been given to sileuce the enraged wife of a man detected in sin. But in the midst of his questionings he seemed to see a truth,—that another snare had been set for him by the Devil, and that tbis time it had caught his feet. He, who knew that he must have nothing for himself, had all unconsciously so set his heart upon this child of her mother that he could not give her up. And now so fixed and so great was his love that be could not turn back. He knew he was lost. To cling to her would be to question, doubt, and to lose his faith. To give her up would kill him. But at least for a little while he could put it off. ***P*ft' * ? j CHAPTER XXV. and the gladness of her laugh. "And won't she be glad to see- us again? And she will come before How the World Oid Not Come to an End. With the first day of 1870 Joel Rae began to wait. With prayer sud fastlug and vigils he waited. Now was the day when the earth should be purified by fire, the wicked swept from the land, and the lost tribes of Israti restored to their own. Now was to come the Son of Man who should dwell in righteousness with men. reigning over them on the purified earth for a thousand years. He watched the mild winter go. with easy faith; and the early spring come and go, with a dawning uneasiness. For the time was passing with never the blast of a trumpet from the heavens. He began to see then that he alone, of all Amalon, had kept his faith pure. For tho others had foolishly sown their fields, as if another crop were to be harvested,—as if they must continue to eat bread that was earth-grown. Even Prudence had strangely ceased to believe as he did. Something from the outside had come, he knew not what nor ha^w, to tarnish the fair gold of her certainty. She had not said so, but he "divined it Daddy—porhapa next f to-morrow," she wooJtd say MM* fUflJV 'X&i *Qjj 4ttr*ght act, Oops. It,wo«kl4^iay»redoubt" . Ho quickly detected her Insincerity, seeing that she* did not ar ail believe. Jka the summer caste and went wlthr put a sigh from the heavens, she bo* came more poaitlv?and more eonataat in these assurance*. Ai'the'evening drew on, they would walk .out along the unsown fields, now growh rankly to weeds, to where th» valley iett away from their foot to tho west There they could look over line after line of hills, each a little dimmer as it lay farther into the blue through which they saw it. from the bold rim of the seare%t shaggy-sided hill to the farthest feathery profile all but tost *ti the haze. Day after gay they sat to* gether here and waited for tho alga, —for the going down of tho sutPupon a night when there should oe no dark* ness; when the light should stay until the sun came back over the eastern verge; when the trumpet should wind through the hills, ant when the little man's perplexities, if not his punishment, should be at an end. His hope lasted hardly until tho year ended. Before the time waa over, there had crept Into his mind a con- \ictlon that the Son of Maa would not come; that the Lord's favor had been withdrawn from Israel. He knew the cause,—the shedding of innocent blood. They might have made war; indeed, many of the revelations to Joseph discriminated even <betwen murder and that murder in which innocent blood ahould be shed; hot the truth was plain. They had shed innocent blood that day In the Meadows. Now the Lord's favor was withdrawn and His coming deferred, perhaps another thousand years. The torture of the thing came back to him with ail its early coloring, so that his days and nighta were full of anguish. He no longer dared open the Bible to that reddened page. The cries already rang in his ears, and he knew not what worse torture might come if he looked again upon the stain; nor could he free himself from these by the old expedient of prayer, for he could no longer pray with an honest heart; he was no longer unselfish, could no longer kneel in perfect submission; he was wholly bound to this child of her mother, and the peace of absolute and utter sacrifice could not come back to him. Full of unrest, feeling that somehow the end, at least for him, could not be far off, he went north to the April Conference. He took Prudence with him, not daring to leave her behind. She went with high hopes, alive with new sensations. Another world lay outside her valley of the mountains, and she was going to peep over the edge at its manifold fascinations. She had been there before as a child; now she was going as a woman. She remembered the city, bigger and grander than fifty Amalons, with magnificent stores filled with exotic novelties and fearsome luxuries from the land of the wicked Gentile. More fondly did she recall two wonderful evenings at the theater. First had been the thrilling "Robert Macalre," then the romantic "Pizarro," In which Rolla had been a being of such overwhelming beauty that she had felt he could not be of earth. ] And there were strange new faces to be seen, people surely of a different world, of a different manner from those she had known, wearing, with apparent carelessness, garments even more strangely elegant than those in the shop windows, and speaking in strange, soft accents. She was told that these were Gentiles, tourists across the continent, who had ventured from Ogden to observe the wonders of the new Zion. The thought of the railroad was in itself thrilling. To be so near that wonderful highway to the land of the evil-doers and to a land, alas! of so many strange delights. She shuddered at her own wickedness, but fell again and again, and was held in bondage by the allurements about her. So thrilled to her soul's center was she that the pleasure of it hurt her, and the tears would come to her eyes until she felt she must be alone to cry for the awful joy of it. The evening brought still more to endure, for they went to the play. It was a play that took her out of herself, so that the crowd was lost to her from the moment the curtain went up in obedience to a little bell that tinkled mysteriously,—either back on the stage or in her own heart, she was noj sure .which.

He made one of bis stirring appeals for the work and in a tew minutes bad raised, with some subscribed before, $336.00. The people then repaired t j the Grange Halt where the ladies had a banquet spread and the entire number were fed. An hour or more was spent in social chat, renewing old friendships and forming new ones. No charge wa^s made for sapper but a freewill offering was taken at the table which amounted to nearly $25. At 7:30 the evening service opened by singing, and prayer by Rev, Reed, then more remarks by former pastors. Rev. Gordon, of Dexter, said that the North Lake church bad done noble work but her work was not all done yet—her duty was before her. Make the hcuse of God attractive, but make it worthy as well. Rev. Reed gave some very gocd comparisons as to the charges since he began to preach 63 ysars ago. Then he traveled through the woods, with his home practically in the saddle and his library in the saddle bags. Most of his studying was done while riding from place to place, and some of his circuits took him four weeks, and was nearly 250 miles, j> Rev. Littlejohn spoke on the topic, "Do we layish too much on our churches to the detriment of Spirituality?" He said that all dens of vice and sin expended thousands of dollars beautifying their rooms, and the churches should do as well. Make the church so attractive as to draw people and then give them something that will make them better men and women. He spoke in his usual fluent manner, and our scribe could not make note of the many good things [ a j 4 that be gave out.

The 'first class-book bears the date of 1838 -and the class was called North Lake class in the Dexter circuit, Flint River district, Detroit conference with 8. P . Shaw P . E., G. W. Breckinridge and Chas. Babcock circuit preachers. Eight here perhaps it would be well to note the extent of the class. Some came from Unadilla, some near Chelsea and others near Dexter. This was before the thriving city of Chelsea was even a village. In the year 1840 a change was made and we were in the Auu Arbor District with A. Billings P . E., and L. Davis cii«uit preacher. Between the years 1840 and 1855 W. H . Collins and W. E. Biglow were P. JB. and A. Campbell, W. P. Judd, B. H. Hedger, I Dwelle circuit preachers. I n the year 1857 we were in the Detroit conference, Williamsville circuit, Owosso District, J . M. Arnold P . E., B. H. Hedger and R. Johnson circuit preachers I n the year 1865 Detroit conference, Ann Arbor District and known as the Lima and North Lake charge with T. 0. Gardner P . E., J. W. Holt pastor. Since that time there has been many changes made, among which are the following. For some time we were with Unadilla, Pinckney, Dexter, and Waterloo; now we are with Unadilla and North Waterloo. I t would be impossible for me to give the names of all the pastors who have served so faithfully here but would like to mention one among the many as his pastorate was marked by a sweeping reviv- His name was James E. Diver ty and in the year 1876 there were twenty nine united with the church as a result of his labors. One of this number, F. Cooper, is makiug his life the saving of souls. Five have passed to their T «• 1 the church I came urjbfi*'these when the ptoe WMftgaui left ••* tbiflgs of interest, one was the^ cant bjr hit death. The same sum of one dollar being paid for two gallons of oil and another extreme was the care of the church six months for fonr dollars. At the present time these things are just the reversed. We have at the present time a membership of about thirty. The Bible was presented to the class by Chas. Glenn and wife the year the churcli was built Perhaps some one here will not understand why having this church free of debt it is hard for us to maintain and repair it. I will try in a few words to tell you ho'w it is the older ones who. built the church owned their farms a n d were at that time considered wellto do. At the present time the youuger generation are trying to pay for homes of their own in other words the property then owuedvby a few has been divided and Borne have taken their portion and gone into other places so that the wealth that at . t h a t time was united is now divided. Chas. Glenn, first leader of the North Lake class was born Feb. 22, 1803 in the state of New York, and moved to Michigan in the year 1833 where he bought two loto'of Government land in the township"6f Dexter upon which farm h e lived until the time of his death, 1876, and which is now owned by Edward Daniels. H e was the class leader for nearly thirty five- years and Local preacher for over thirty. I t is largely due to his faithfulness and zeal that we have this house of worship. At the present time he has one grand daughter Mrs. F . E. Pearce a Methodist minister's wife, also a great grandson Harvey Pearce, preacher in the Detroit conference. During all these years there have been but four class leaders Chas. Glenn next his son, 13. H. -Glenn, who was leader for about one year when the place was made vacant by his death, then fill again by his father until the year 1876 year, W;m. Woo4 was made leadej> and served faithfully for twenty' one years until his death in the year 1897, since that time his daughter, 'the writer of this1 sketch, has filled the place. Now do not think x this is all there is to be said in regard to the North Lake church but 0 to the many changes that been made it rendered it im ble for me to give a connected history as I should like to have done. * ' f oevvrrrs ass* WITCH HAZEL S A L V E - For Pflea, Burns, STATU ov MiOHiHAJ*.

After toe ironworkers had eeen It done they •till would not believe It. "Borne crank will be burning lee next thing," they said. Some of nil customers when they heard about it wrote Kelly that they wanted their Iron made either in the regular way, and not by any newfangled method, or not at all. When the flret blast was so strong that it melted the iron the spectators roared with laughter at what they called "Kelly's fireworks" and laughed for ten years at his "folly." When Bessemer Introduced hia process to the British ironmakers they, too, roared with laughter at the "crazy Frenchman" and would not allow the "silly Idea" to be mentioned in their records. The steel rail proposition excited only derision. "Bosh! Stuff! Humbug! Nonsense!" said the railroad directors when it was proposed to them.

According to the best authorities upon the subject, the idea of using white talc in the manufacture of pipes is of comparatively recent date compared with the age of the habit of smoking, and what is still more curious Is the fact that in the oriental countries which prodWce white talc, or meerschaum, as It is called, and where the use of tobacco forms part of the education of the faithful the people never dream of making this substance Into pipes. They make bowls and goblets of it, but no pipes. It may be that the long pipestems which allow the smoke to cool and lose its acridity before reaching the mouth leave the oriental smoker quite Indifferent in regard to the quality of the bowl.

"Seventeen young men have gone to the training institution at Tangoa and 23 teachers have been settled at different stations; besides these, a goodly number of unpaid volunteer workers have done splendid service among the outlying tribes. The progress at some of the stations has been very great. Still in several islands the difficulties are enormous, largely arising from Intoxicating drink. War and strife also continue to hinder the progress of the gospel in several islands. An example of this is furnished by the missfcrc^ry at South Santo, who reports 12 murders and three cases of cannibalism since the hist part of 1906." -LADDER A man never masters others until he has mastered his own appetites. Suffered Three Years—Hands and Eye Most Affected—Now Well and Is Grateful to Cuticura. "My wife was taken badly with ec> sema for three years, and she employed a doctor with no effect at all until she employed Cuticura Soap and Ointment. One of her hands and her left eye were badly affected, and when she would stop using Cuticura Soap and Ointment the ecsema came back, but very slightly; but it did her a sight of good. Then we complied with the instructions in using the entire set of Cuticura Remeedies and my wife is entirely recovered. She thanks Cuticura very much and will recommend it highly in our locality and in every nook and corner of our parish. God bless you for the sake of suffering humanity. I. M.

Regular hszaar preaching is being conducted dally, and there Has been an eager demand for copies of the gospels, both in Trdn and Marathi.

Harker was In a fierce humor the other morning when tbe front door opened and in walked a stranger unannounced. "I cam/," began the stranger, 'taking off his coat and rolling up his sleeves. "What!" thundered Harker. *^Ton didn't come in here to start anything, did you?" IJ "I did," replied the stranger, coolly,, But he got no further. With a savage whoop Harker grabbed the Intruder around the waist and deposited him on the sidewalk. Two hours later his wife returned. "William," said she, "was there anyone here during my absence?" "Yes," snorted Harker, "there was some lunatic here who said he came to start momething, but I just bundled him out on the sidewalk before he had time to make a move." 'William, you are the biggest goose In town!" "In what way?" "Why, the man came to start the clock that hasn't been running for a week. He is a clocksmith." ^ Many of our pains corns from plucking joys before they are ripe. Churches Should Advertise. Dr. W. W.

' Oeorsje Vanx, Jr., of Philadelphia, has been appointed a member of the board of Indian commissioners. Mr. Vaux told a reporter the other day an Indian story. "There was a certain commissioner," he said, "who treated the Indians with rude scorn. One day a chief entertained this man in his tepee, telling him over the tobacco many quaint legends. "One legend concerned a plague of grasshoppers. The chief told eloquently how grasshoppers overran the land, eating the grain, and how the medicine men averted a famine by offering a silver grasshopper to the Great Spirit, whereupon all that deluge of grasshoppers disappeared. "But the commissioner scoffed at the tale. " 'Are you Indians such fools,' he said, 'as to believe such rubbish?' " 'O, no.' said the chief, gravely, or we'd long ae>; have ,offered the Great Spirit a silver pale face.'•"— Milwaukee Sentinel. Pi . SSSSJIfSg Oood t¥**< *'*v » * It (a good .burimTS" s-kesf/' ptdp.

From that tim* on, I had to be careful 'about eating, as or tit, Mkkifia; orC. A LAURIE*, Sank nearly every kind of food then known to me, seemed to cause pain. "Four years ago I commenced to use Grape-Nuts. I grew stronger and better, and from that time I seldom have been without it; have gained in health and strength and am now heavier than I ever was. "My husband was also in a bad condition— his stomach became so weak that he could eat hardly anything with comfort. I got him to try Grapenuts, and he soon found his stomach trouble had disappeared.

The foot passengers crowded around Immediately to watch the ufcfortunRte man as he rose to the surface,* and in a trice some one shouted, •Til bet be drowns!" "Two to one he'll swim ashore!" was the answer. The rest of the pedestrians joined in the betting. Meantime Vieuztemps rushed down to the river bank, secured a waterman and rowed out to the rescue. Just as the boatman was about to reach forth to grasp the poor fellow, who by this time was floundering about In the water, having lost his desire for death, the spectators above cried out: "Leave him alone! There's a bet on It!" The oarsman drew back into the boat, and the unfortunate wretch sank before their eyes. Doable K*«».

We will not mention any of tbe history of tbe organization of the church here43 that appears in an article by itself, arranged and read by Mrs. Perry Noab. Although the remarks by former pastors mention parts of the history. The afternoon session w& opened with song by tbe audience; prayer, and an anthem by the .North Lake double qnaitet. Then followed remarks by former pastors. Rev. P. J. Wright, the present peator, said he was glad to note thattjgsj* were several old members presesi. An army of souls had been saved at that altar there, and were scattered over tbe entire United States, helping to spread the Gospel, while a email army of them had gone over th) Biver. The North Lake obnrob had had a share in the salvation of the world and still bad a work to do that oould not be accomplished by any other people. Be?. Wm. Dawe, presiding elder, was expeoted to be present but bad a fall on tbe ioe and was unable to be present and had Rev. Seth Reed, of tbe Old Peoples Home Chelsea, take bis place. Rev. Reed carries his eighty and more years lightly, and walks with a firm step, and is still straight both physically and spiritually, In response to Mr. Wright, he said he was glad to see them keeping the bouse of God in good shape. Tbe time ia ripe for social chrisianity—mingling together. There are dangers howeyer on both sides of tbe question, ard we must be careful that sociality does not crush put religious sentiment. What we need is christian sociality that does not lose tbe spirit of piety, so the people of the world may see the difference. It bas been thirty years since I met with you as presiding elder and am glad to find the work still being pressed forward. Here followed the history of the society, and at the close Rev. Reed made a few remarks on the keeping of church records. He said that the lite of onr christian religion wjas aassi on Bible history. If it had not Isjw -Jer history, or tbe church secoreV befog kept we would not have had any religion. Oar reoords should be well kept, as they mean much. From the report of the quarterly conference doings to the ladies Aid society every record should be well kept in a form that it may go down in history. Such records will, in later years, inspire others to more diligence. Rev. Fred Ceo per spoke of the need of keeping up the oburch. He saw among the number many familiar faces who had helped him, as * boy, to lead a better life. It was at the altar here that I gave myself to God and He has helped me and kept me, and now I am doing what 1 can to spread the Gospel. I am not the only one that has found the Sayionr here— there are many. Ton need the church as much today as ever, and the boys and girls aroond here need the obnrch and its influence. The world is better for its being here. In speaking of repairing and raising the obnrch. Rev. Reed said that they should be sore that the foundation was t/fte and steadfast, both ternoral and spiritual obnroh. There is i tendency by some today to lessen the sanctity of tbe church and we must ganrd against it. Fatch the roof, nail on the clapboards.

JJTMUWI, P»h, H T " riHOXNBY, ejessanssMrs MICHIGAN tBammsessmmmm snoaasratHsr* More Wholesome ©port Throughout the middle west a* In other parts of the country, athletic conditions In the high schools, colleges and universities had reached a state of disgraceful and sordid apogance, when, two years ago, a coptereace of the governing boards of nine of the leading Institutions of the interior took the matter under consideration. They found high-school boys who had been induced to leave school a year or two ahead of time In order to enter some college which was willing: to smooth the intellectual pathway in return for athletic services. Professionalism was rife, and not only winked at, but almost openly encour* tied; and rivalry was so keen that tven middle-aged professors found .heir relations with professors in other colleges strained by the hostile feeling between the undergraduates. The desire to win, and the hope of making money i>x winning, had killed the true spirit of sport The governing boards of the nine colleges which met to consider the matter took radical steps. Professionalism was prohibited by the most stringent regulations, all contests between certain of the fiercest rivals were discontinued, and a uniform date for beginning training in the fall was fixed. The new rules have now had a year's trial, with the result of clearing the air and establishing college athletics upon a saner and more wholesome footing. A second conference was lately held to consider possible changes in the rules. Although great pressure was brought by some of the student bodies, the members of the athletic conference committee stood firm. Only one change was made. The rule fixing a uniform date for beginning practice was rescinded. Even that may be restored. The colleges of the middle west, therefore, says Youth's Companion, are to have another year of cleanliness and decency and manliness in sport; another chance to learn that to win Is not the main object of athletics among gentlemen, but that "the game's the thing." ssr We incline to believe that the capital punishment idea, whether it be right or wrong In any conceivable case, is likely to be done away with in time, although that time is evidently not yet, says the Lowell (Mass.) Courier, The gradual whittling away of death penalties can have escaped no one, of course, and the chances are that even the taking of human life, deliberately and with malice prepense, may one day be punished without exacting the extreme penalty, even where it. might seem that no less penalty fitted the crime, Humanity, whether right or wrong, is coming Uj revolt from it. Juries are harder and harder to secure. Death sentences, even when rendered in strict accord with law, commonly meet with a storm of public protest. Murders do not decrease. Is it not, on the whole, likely that in time the death penalty •wijl be still further decreased until it ultimately disappears through ths vanishing point, save perhaps in nil!« itary cases of the most outrageousjy treasonable kind?

THE MARKETS. Prof. Henderson of the UnlversJU of Chicago said to his class recently! "Chicago is a large city, like Peking, but it is not great. People live here only until they can go to New York, London or Paris on their way to heaven.rt That is almost as bad as what Jack London said of this city on his return to England. "Chicago," he said, ' i s a sort of cross between a civilized city and a western mining camp, except that things are done in Chicago every day with impunity for which in a mining camp a man would be shot on sight." Both of these critics may be right, but, remarks the Chicago Chronicle, it may not be a.mfss to inquire whether the University of Chicago is great or only large. A Persian prince who is travelfng in this country says he is too busy to think about matrimony. If he is required to do as his illustrious relative, the late shab, did and take unto himself SO wives, he cannot be blamed for postponing the thing as long as possible. A spiritualistic medium says Mars is angry because her signals are being ignored by the earth. Business must be dull on Mars when she goes so far out of her way to-pick a quarrel with her neighbors.

Higgini from Jackson state prison, where ne has *erre4 nearly 10 years of a life sentence for the murder of Lafayette Ladd in Adrian, April 17» 1887. One of the most compelling pleas for the re> lease of a man convicted of murder wae made for Hlggtnti in Lansing Tuesday by his brother, James C. Higgins, of Detroit. If Higgins is finally pardoned it will be for no other reason than that he wrote a story entitled "A Life for a Life" in Jackson state prison in 1893, while he was serving a term for bun glary, the very story that helped! convict him. Perhaps it was the first time in the history of jurisprudence that a man was ever,.convicted of murder because he wrote the story of a murder, but the fact remains that at the arrest of Higgins the manuscript was found in his pocket, and at the trial the prosecuting attorney read it with s'lch force and emphasis that as the Jury listened and looked at the prisoner sitting quietly in hfs chair, each man heard as if a full and written confession was being made. Throughout the trial the story was insisted on as proving Higgins' guilt; it was even admitted as evidence, Higgins swore tha't he had Written the story four years previous, but no one believed him. He also said that he was not in Adrian at the time of the murder, bftt no one behnman companion and depending on the ftah of the river and what fowls he can raise on a tiny patch of ground. "Buckshot" is a relic of the day* ef Daniel Boone. A long fun of the old* fashioned type and a lonely and hungry- looking dog.are bis only companions and have been for years. Time waa when the aged hermit was a man of the world end possessed of considerable wealth, bu*'that time has gone and the wealth was left in faraway Australia. With wealth gone, the man became soured on human beings, and after sailing a few years out of Chicago he came to Muskegon and settled up the river. For some yeans the river Jacks bothered him. Now they are gone. The river runs by the door, , Jt ,ia sweet music to his ears, so he says. Dan McPhail is a Scot, and his rambling story weaves a thread of interesting history, for he says he comes from stock that once was ranked high in the United Kingdom. Born With 8m«lipox. Dr. Shumway, of the state board of health, reports one very touching case in the epidemic of smallpox in Holly and vicinity, where there have been 52 cases and two deaths. The superintendent of the school in Holly noticed that several children haft.erup butjnovc-M. bflUved him. His literary ability sejifeztfted him to prison for life. ,.. When Higgins* broths/appeared be-, fore the pardon board all these points were dealt with; THa records of Michigan's state prison were nroduced to show that Higgifle did write the story some four years' previousvto the murder and that therefore it cquld not have been a description,of th^ Ladd murder—a theory on wh^ph tfte prosecution rested. It waa a strange moment when the record^.'of the prison were produced in an,«fffort to release a man from the same -prison. It came about this way: F6r years there has been a literary society among the convicts, and like all well organized societies it'ha^ a secretary whose duty if is to record In a record-book the minutes of the meeting. The book contains the handwriting of many men who have served successively as secretaries, some of them now free and living upright lives. In course of Hme it came John Higgins' turn fo keep the record. Higgins was in jail on a 10-year sentence for burglary and his talent for writing made him one of the leaders of the literary club. After he had been elected secretary the prisoner who was relinquishing ihe task wrote: "John Hig, you can have this book now." Thereafter for a while the record was kept in Higgins' hand, later it was turned over to another secretary, the writing of all appearing in regular form. It was the order that once every so often the members must produce some original writing. One day in his cell Higgins read that a paper was offering $50 for the best story dealing with crime that should be submitted to its editors. J tains wrote with pencil on manila paper "A Life for a Life" intending to submit it to the contest. He kept It, however, and read.it at the next meeting of the literary society. Then, as he made up the record of that evening's gathering he recorded along with the rest of the program in his book, "John M. Higgins'original story, A Life for a Life.'" That was December 18, 1893, over three years before Lafayette Ladd was murdered—April 1.7, 1897. This prison book was proluced by the brother to vindicate Higgins. Little did he think When making that innocent little entry that perhaps it might one day restore him to freedom. The book has been found, the traveling doctor from whom Higgins got the revolver and now it looks as if the convict, told the truth. His brother asks no: for a parole but a full pardon, Three Amendments. The legislature has provided for the fiubmission of 'three propositions to amend the constitution at the coming election*, which will be voted on by the electors of the state.

CHAPTER XXVI. . o . i %'A MtaM CHsfpTC* XXV.—Continued. It was. a love story; again that strangely moving love of one man for one woman, that seemed aa sweet as It waa novel to her. But there was war between the houses In the play, aa4 fee yoaag lover had to make a his beloved, climbing a into her garden, climbing to fcticony by* a scarf she flung down to him. To the young woman from Ajnalon, these lovers' voices came with a Strang compulsion, so that they played with her heart between them. • She was In turn the youth, pleading in a voice that touched every faeartstring from low to high; then she- was the woman, soft and timid, hesitating in moments of delicious doubt, yet almost fearful of her power to resist,—half-wishing to be persuaded, half frightened lest she yield. When the moment of surrender came, she became both of them; and, when they parted, it was as if her heart went In twain,* a half with each, both to atoh» tratitthsy were Teunited. Between the acts she awoke to reality, only to say to. herself: "So much I shall have to think about—so much—I shall never be able to think about it enough." Feverishly she followed the heartbreaking tragedy to its close, suffering poignantly the grief of each lover, .suffering death for each, and feeling her life desolated when the end came. Bat when the dull curtain shut her hack Into her own little world, where there was i>o love like that, and beaiee the little bent rtf%n she went out into the night. The next morning: had come a further delight, am inflation to a ball from Brigham. Moat -.oY the day was spent in one of..the shops, choosing a gown of wohdrous beauty, and having it fitted *6t»r. When she looked Into the little cracked mirror that night, she saw a strange new face and figure; and, when she entered the ballroom, she felt that others noted the same strangeness, for many looked at her until she felt her cheeks burn. Then Brigham arose from a sofa, where he had been sitting with his first wife and his last, and came gallautly toward her; Brigham, whom she knew to be the moat tavo**4 of Uod oa eartnaad the,astoluU» ruler of all amvtoajtss lhawt *or,T*ea affable, tmareteatiens yat dignified gentleman - of 7% who took her hand warmly in both his own, looted her over with his kindly blue eyes, and welcomed- her to 7,ion in words of a fatherly gentleness. Later, when he had danced with Home of hie wives, Brigham came to dance with her, light of foot and full of zest for the measure aa any youth.

To him, aa well aa to the girl, the change in the first city of Zkm hdd been a thing to wonder a t But what had thrilled her with amazed delight brought pain to him. Zion was no longer held Inviolate. And now the truth was much clearer to him. Not only had the Lord deferred His coming, but He had set His band again to seatter Israel for its sin.

The shrewd old face of the Bishop had wrinkled into a smile of qoiet observation aa the other read the letter. In relating the incident to the Entablature of Trut- subsequently, he said of Joel Bae at the moment he looked up from this letter: "He'll never be whiter when he's dead! I see in a minute that the old man had him on the bark." "You know what's in this, Brother even the fteavi of 4 h * Mountain* though it tola* of a lufferiav i e could «»* undaraUnd, ^ r f g h a i q Jn vary sot in bin way*,'' he said, aft*>r! a little, with a curious soft kindness in nig voice,—"in fact a sotter man/I never tnewT' He drove oft, leaving the other staring at the letter now crumpled in his hand. He atiso said, in his subsequent narrative to-the Entablature of Truth; "You know I've always took Brother Rae for jest a natural born not a any little cuss that could be whiffed around by anything and everything, but when 1 drove off he had a plumb ornery fighting look in them deep-set eyes of his, and blame me if I didn't some way feel sorry for him,—he's that warped up, like an old water-soaked sycamore plank that gits laid out in the aun." But this look of belligerence had quickly passed from the face of Joel Rae when the first heat of his resentment had cooled. After that he merely" suffered, torn by his reverence for Brigham, who represented on earth no less a power than the first person of the Trinity, and by the love for this child who held him to a past made beautiful by his lo^e for her mother,—by a thousand youthful dreams and fancies and wayward hopes that he had kept fresh through all the years; torn between Brigham, whose word was as the word of God, and Prudence who was the living flower of her dead mother and all his dead hopes.

One morning, a few weeks after he had reached home from tlw> north,, he received a call from Seth Wright. "Here's a letter Brother Brigham wanted me t#» be sure and give you," said this good man. "He said he didn't know you was allowing to start back ao soon, or he'd have seen you in person." He took the letter and glanced at. the superscription, written in Brig ham's rather unformed but plain and very decided-looking hand, 'So you've been north, Brother Seth? What do yon think of Israel there?" The views of the Wild Ram «f the Mountains partook in certain ways of his own discouragement. "Zion has run to seed, Brother Rae; the rank weeds-of Babylon is a-goln' to choke it out, root and branch! We ain't got no chance to live a pure and Godly life any longer, with railroads coming in, and Gentiles with their fancy contraptions. It weakens the spirit, and it plays the very hob with the women. Soon as they git up there now, and see them new styles from St. Looey or Chicago, they git downright daft. No more homespun for em, no more, valley tali,' no more parched corn for coffee, nor beet molasse* nor. unbolted flojju. Oh..I know Seth—you know that Brigham wants Prudence?" Joel Rae had asked, looking up from the letter, upon which both his hands had closed tightly. "Well, I told you he dropped a word or two, jest \^y way of keeping off the Princes of Israel down here." "I must go to Salt Lake at once and talk to him." "Take her akmg; likely he'll marry her right off." "But. 1 can't—I couldn't—Brother Seth, t wish her not to marry him." The Bishop stared blankly at. him, his amazement freezing upon his lips, almost, the words he uttered. "Not — want — her — to marry — Brother Brigham Young. Prophet, Seer, and Relevator. President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in all the world!" "I must go up and talk to him at once." "You won't talk him out of it. Brother Brigham has the habit of prevailing. Of course, he's closer than Dick's hat-band, but she'll have the best there is until he takes another." "He may listen to reason—" "Reasoa?—why, man, what more reason could he want,—with that splendid young critter before him, throwing back her head, and flashing her big, shiny eyes, and lifting her red lips over them little white teeth— reason enough for Brother Brigham— or for other people 1 eould name!" "But he wouldn't be so hard—taking her away from me—" Something in the tones of this a*> from the road that led to the canyon. m u a e d by the brook-side in her besb He watched her jealously until she drew near, then caKed her to him. In a few words he told her very gravely the honor that was to be done her. When she fully understood, he noted that her mind seemed to attain an unusual clearness, her speech a new conciseness; that she was displaying a force of will he had never before suspected. Her reply, ia effect, was that she would not marry Brigham Young if all the angels in heaven came to entreat her; that the thought wis not a pretty one; and that the matter might be conbidered settled at that very moment. "It's too silly to talk about, she concluded. Almost fearfully he looked at her, yielding a little to her spirit of rebellion, yet trying not to yield; trying not to rejoice iu the amused flash of her dark eyes and the dectaiou of her tones. But then, as he looked, and as she still faced him. radiant in her confidence, he felt himself going with her—plunging into the tempting wave of apostasy.

'-"' * There were-various ways of bringing this circumstance forward, Vsnally she had Brigham march on at .the head of his great family and counsel the youth to take jajpra wiveMp °3d*i' that he should be exalted ia the kingdom. Whereupon the young man would fold his love m bis attnTahd speak words of scorn, in the same thrilling manner that he spoke his other words, for any exaltation which they two eould not share alone. Brigham, at the head of his wives, would then slink off, much abashed. She had come naturally to see her own face as the face of this happily loved girl in the dream. She knew no face for the youth. There waa none in Amnion; not Jarom Tanner, six feet three, who became Tr help-, less grinning ehfhi in her presence; nor Moroni Peterson, who became a solemn and ghastly imbecile; nor Ammaron Wright, son of the Bishop, who had opened the dance of the Young People's Auxiliary with prayer, and later tried to kiss her in a dark corner of the room. So the face of the other person in her dream remained of an unknown'heavenly beauty. And then one afternoon ia early May a strange youth came singing down the canyon; came while she A New Face in the Dream. I Prudence had to be alone to dream I her dreams of a love that should be 1 always single. Brigham's letter, tar ! from disturbing these, had brought i them a zest hitherto lacking. Neither i the sacrilege of refusing him. its i worldly unwisdom, nor its i>oasible harm to the little bent man of sorrows, ! had as yet become apparent to her. ] Kach day. when such duties as were \ hers in the house had beeu performed , she walked out to.be alone,—always to Box canyon, that gre«n-sided cleff j in the mountaiu, witlt the brook lash- j ing itself to a white fury over the boulders at the bottom. She would go up out of the hot valley into its cool freshness and it pleasant wood smells, and there, ia the softened blue light of a pine-hung glade, she would rest, and let her fancy build wMat heaven-reaching towers it would. On some brown bed of pine-needles, or on a friendly gray boulder close by the waterside, where she could give her eyes to its flow and foam, and her ears to its music,—music like the muffled tinkling of little silver bells in loved dream. Long before she saw him, she heard his music, a young, clear, care-free voice ringing down i'l'om the trail that went over the mountains to Kanab and into Kimball valley; one of the ways that led out 0 the world that she wondered about so much. It was a voice new to her, tnd the words of his ballad were also new. At first she heard then* from afar:—- "There was a young lady came a-tripplhg alon«. And at each.side a servant-O, And in each hand a iriasf* of wine To drink with the Gypsy Davy-O- "And.will you fancy me. my dear. And will you be my llouey-OV 1 swear by the sword that hangs by my side Xou shall never want for money-O. "OU, yes, 1 will fancy you, kind sir, And 1 will be your lloney-O, 11 you swear by the Hword t h a t liangs by your side 1 shall never want for mone-y-O." The singer seemed to be making his way slowly. Far up the trail, she had one fleeting glimpse of a man on a horse, and then he was hid again in the twilight of the piues. But the music c:.ine nearer: — "Then sli* put on her hifth-heeled shoes. All made of Spanish ieather-O, And she put on her bonnle, botitiie brown, Am' they rode off tog^thei•-(_>.

"Tripn saddle me my milk-while fUeed, For the black is* not MO apeedy-O. And I'll ride all night and I'll ride all day Till I overtake my lady-O." She stood transfixed, something within her responding to the hidden singer, as he had once heard a closed piano sound to a voice that sang near it. Soon she could get brokeu glimpses of him as he wound down the trail, now turning around the end of a fallen tree, then passing behind a giant spruce, now leaning far back while the horse felt a way cautiously down some sharp little declivity. The impression was confused,—a glint of red, of blue, of the brown of the horse, a figure swaying looeely to the horse's movements, and then he was out of sight again around the big rock that had once fallen from high up on the side of the canyon: but now, when he the distance,—she would let herself j came from behind that, he would be go out to her dream with the joyous, reckless abandon of falling water. It was commonly a dream of a youth in doublet and hose, a plumed cap, and a cloak of purple satin, who carfto in the moonlight to the balcony of hilove, and sighed his passion in tones so moving that she thought an, angel must have yielded—as did the girl in the balcony who had let down the scarf to him. She already knew how that girl's heart must have fluttered at ihe moment,—how she must have felt that the hands were mad, wicked, uncontrollable hands, no longer her own. There was one place in the dream that she managed not without some ingenuity. It had to he made plain ihat the lover under the window did not come from n long, six-doored house, with a wife behind each door; that this girl, pale in the moonlight. squarely in front of her. This recalled and alarmed her. She began to pick a way over the boulders and across the trail that lay between her and the edge of the pines, hearing another verse cf the song almost at her ear: — "He rode'all night and he rode all day, Till he came to the far deep water—. Then he stopped and a tear i a m e a-tii'-klfng down his cheek. For there he saw his lady-O." Before she could reach a shelter iu the pines, while she was poised for tho last step that would take her out of the trail, he was out from behind the rock, before her. almost U[>on her, reining his horse back upon, its haunches,— then in another instant lifting off his broad-brimmed hat to her in a gracious sweep. It VftQ taw first time she had seen this siaipie ofllce performed outside of the theater. (TO BE CONTINUED.) Queen Victoria's Favorite Soup It was Francatelll, the famous cook of Queen Victoria in early Victorian days, who used to observe casually, when serving a certain soup: "This was the only soup the queen would ever eat while I had the honor of being in her majesty's service."

In autumn of 183b' he came with his parents and family to Putnam, tsettliug ou the farm now occupied by the family of the late C. M. Wood, four miles west of this village.

They all make the mistake of holding the garment too high, especially the last sleeve. They lift it so that a man nearly dislocates his arm reaching for it. The more futlloly he grabs and claws and lurches for it the higher they hold It until the wretched victim would have to get on a pair jof^stlIts to find the armhole. The proper \v-ay? Why. hold the coat so that) the arm holes are as low down as the man's waist, taking care to keep the skirt of the garment off the floor, of course. If there is any struggle to find the last armhole, drop it still lower. Never raise It. Drop It until his hand slips Into It naturally.

Pittsburg Suffers Great Loss From the Elements. With the city's business district battling the greatest flood in the history of Pittsburg, and most of the fire engines at work pumping out the big business buildings down-town, Friday morning, t w o disastrous fires broke out on the south side. The first destroyed the plant of the American Sheet & Tin Plate Co., at the foot of South Fourteenth street, a n P slightly damaged the Oliver Steel & Iron Works. There was practically no water to fight the flames. What little could be commanded was used in extinguishing this fire. The second blaz^, in Mt. Washington, had to be fought with chemicals, bucket brigades and dynamite. Twenty-five business houses and dwellings, including several tenements, were destroyed before the fire burned itself out. Dynamiting of buildings to stay the fire was hard work, as in each case the wreckage took fire. The loss in the Mt. Washington tire is estimated at $200,00«». and in the first fire at $26,000. Ten square miles in the down-(own section of the city is under water from the flood, which readied :17 teet, the highest stage ever known. Enormous damage has boon caused. It will run above ton millions, but cannot: be computed now. One hundred thousand men are idle. The telephone service is practically out of busiueas and telegraph service may be lost. All the towns in a radius of 50 miles are cut off from Pittsburg and the outside world, including Wheeling, \V Va. Record Mountain Climbing.

Simple Advice Which May Prove of Untold Value. Demand Self Government. The Porto Rico house of delegates unanimously adopted a resolution, in- 1 roduced by Luis Munos Rivera, leader of the Unionist party, demanding self government for Porto Rico. The resolution, which is to be forwarded to President Roosevelt, is to be printed in several languages and mailed to foreign countries for distribution there. In presenting the resolution Mr. Rivera made a long patriotic, address, voicing the ambition of the Unionist party, and when he read the text of the resolution itself there was an enthusiastic demonstration on the part of the delegates, who embraced its author. The latter was so stirred by emotion that he shed tears. FOOLED THE PREACHER. Doctor's Brother Thought Postum Was Coffee. A v i s e doctor found out coffee was hunting' him. so he quit drinking it.

Physiological Mystery. According to some curious investigations conducted by English scientists, eldest sons tend to be criminals and youngest sons paupers. A great many thousand school children and many family histories have been examined to yield these results. Firstborn children were found to be, a s a rule, taller and heavier, with greater ability and endurance than the others. This is in accordance with the popular feeling in many countries that the oldest child Is superior to the others and deserving of special privileges. It is a well established fact that among men of genius an undue proportion are eldest sons.—Detroit Free Press. B e not discouraged with your work, neither with your life.

First they beg, then they wam..and Jtaally they threaten. Some of th$m are openly talking financial disaster, others are throwing bouquets, at President Roosevelt, still others are planning feprlaals. Many of them openly faVor federal supervision, but all are a unit in damning the state legislatures with'their two-cent fare and freight rate Bills. Now comes J. Pierpont Morgan's'paper, the New York Sun, with the bHing satire, directed at the president' himself. It says editorially: "It; is1 worse than nonsense to talk of diminishing the service, of abandoning me fast trains, of abolishing the inlcation system, the mileage and the hundred and one amenities to which the public has become habituated. Such tactics only betray a futile exasperation and denote an attenuated imagination. The thing to do la to eipand the service if it is physically practicable to do it; to treat the public better than it ever was treated before, and to go into baak> ruptcy with all imaginable grace and affability."

A decrease m the average"Otttes of only a mill per ton a mlfo" said Mr. Stlckney, "would wipe out ail the dividends, and a'further decrease of a mill and a third would be equivalent to all the interest on their bonds and other indebtedness. Within six months wages, which constitute about 60 per cent of the operating expenses of railways, have been increased fully 10 per cent, and unless railway rates can be increased as much the leading railroads will be forced into bankruptcy." President James J. Hill, of the Great Northers railroad, told the Sunberg legislating committee, of Minnesota, thit tie would be only too willing to have the United States government take over his road. "Then," said Mr. Hill, "the government would he obliged to -engage In another lottery to get fid of the elephant." Mr, Hill ^as vLhen .ashed wha^t .the government would have to pay for control of the Great Northern. The witness replied that it would cost upwards of $40,000 per milo to "reproduce" the road, not counting terminals, docks and other properly. Counting these, he said it would take about $60,000 per mile.

CO. . 17 STATE STREET, NE'V YORK CITY •"*••„ • \ MISS MARGARET TIERNEV A large proportion of tHamrrations peaiormed in our-hospitals are upon wofsam and #rl§ for * o a ^ organic trouble. Why should this be tlw ease ? Because they have neg-leeted themeelves, as every one of these patients in t!ao hospital beds had plenty of warning in those dra^ria^sensations, pains at left or right of abdomen, backaches, nervous exhaustion, inflammation, ulceration, d i s p l a c e rnenta. and other organic weaknesses. All of these symptoms are indications of an unhealthy condition of the female system and if not heeded the penalty has to be paid by a dangerous operation. When these symptoms manifest themselves, do not drag along until you are obliged to go to the hospital and submit to an opera* tion—but remember that Lydia E. f*inkham*s Vegetable Compound, made from native roots and herbs, has saved hundreds ef Women from surgical operations. Lydia E. . Pinkhanfs Vegetable Compound* has cured more cases of feminine ills than any other one remedy. Such letters as thefollowing MRS.CHAS. A ROCKWOOD are constantly bting received by Mrs. Pinkham to prove our claims. Mrs, C. A. Rockwood, teacher of Parliamentary Law, of 58 Free St., Fredonia. N. Y., writes: "For years I suffered with female trouble. It was decided that an operation was necessary, and although 1 submitted to a serious operation rav sufferings continued, until Lydia E. Pinkham"s Vegetable Compound was recommended and it proved a marvelous remedy, so quickly did it restore my health. I cannot thank you sufficiently for the good it has done me/' • Miss Margaret Tiornev, of No. 328 ' W. 25th Street. New York, writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham :— "When only eighteen year? cf n<;e our physician derided that an operation was necessary to permit of mv womanly organs performing their natural functions. My mother object«i and being urped by a relative to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound dlii i~o. I soon improved in health, the proper conditions were established and I am well and strong, thanks to Lydia E. Pinkhams Vegetable Compound.'' No other remedy has such unqualified endorsement as Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. No other remedy in the worm has such a record of cores of female ills.

As long ago as Eliza beth's reign the wooden image of the black boy was the favorite sign of the tobacco dealers. Later the customary sign was the hlghlander or a figure of Sir Walter Raleigh.

Jobs Qulney Adams' diary has been published in XJ volumes, b u t it is pretty unprofltgftte matter for the average reader. Punrtc men of the later period have lost the diary habit entirely. A diary by a man like Lincoln would be a boon to mankind. President Roosevelt Is a prolific writer, but he Is not suspected of be* ing a diarist. What with the disappearance of the diary and the decline of letter writing we are threatened with a -famine In historical material The typewriter Is the foe of all confidences and intimacies. The telephone, too, Is another modern Invention which cheate posterity, for It •wallows up maBj*n interesting «iffcaaje of views. Great men, however, A*e not the best diarists, declares the Boston Globe. They are too self-conscious to drop their reserve even when they write for their diaries. They see generations unborn looking over their shoulders, and that spoils the story. Emerson declared that Napoleon would not tell even himself the truth, and often would deliberately try to fool and cheat himself. A Napoleonic diary probably would be as worthless to the seeker after the truth as the Corslcan's lying bulletins are. totnds far *mnrtte* teothsmg else," eald •enaior Burrows, of Michigan.»-*fltat cambtoatioir is *st ftf*-*-*.

Secretary Wilson has told me i so. Yet if rebates can be continue*, A «T*t*r CAA WA*&K FATAL ANP %1AI$U* under the guise of atat* control of purely state commerce, it must remain a fact that the trust earn, dominate the situation in Michigan as Jong 9M the railroads are In harmony with it. And for that matter in all other sugar states. "I am not clear that the president's so-called position la tenable. That is. I am not absolutely certain that the federal government can control all commerce, whether Interstate or intrastate, but I must confess that many of the decisions of the United States supreme court look strongly in that direction. The first speech I made in the house 33 years ago, was on this subject, the first interstate commerce act being then under consideration, and X remember r then looked up the precedents and authorities thoroughly. They were entirely agreed- that all interstate commerce must be under the single and undivided control and supervision of congress, but on the question of control of such business as originated within a state and did not leave the state they seemed to hold that the state had the sole right to legislate. At the same time some of the greatest decisions, while apparently sustaining this Idea, were worded la such terms as to possibly sustain the president in the position 1 under stand he would like to hold." >•*• \VA* SMASHED BY TRAIN Car Was M M , W .Worier iV Air Ws*s>*o»^Uis*«M>tfrWoM»dssV^ Age Limit Growing. It may seem strange to us, though the fact nevertheless remains, that the veterans of the grand army of Napoleon, weighed down by age and were men of whom few had passed their thlrty-fifth year! It was a Utne of rash and short living, with an, early age and no overtures of real youth, a time when we find Thackeray ridiculing De Florae /for holding claims on being still a young man at the age of 35! The average man of today carries the spirit and power of youth into an age which a century ago was regarded as bordering on the shady side of existence, says Dr. A. E. Gibson in the Medical Brief. The buoyancy and vigor characteristic of our present middle-aged man make it, frn most cases, extremely difficult to approach any fair degree of accuracy in determining the age of a person passing along the ascension scale between 40 and 55. And what is said of man refers, of course, in equal, if not in still more accentuated degree, to woman. One of the causes or this remarkable arrest of old age lies undoubtedly in the increasing indulgence of our time in healthy outdoor sports, with their care-free and worry-free abandon. Corporation Cure. Federal license as a means of controlling railroads and trusts, it is said, will be the corporation cure advocated by President Roosevelt. He will give his views in a speech at the opening of the Jamestown exposition in May. To squeeze the water out of corporations he will advocate a general appraisement of real values. He plans to make investors sure that their money will not be squandered. Isaac N. Sellgman, the banker, had a talk with the president Wednesday. He said afterwards: "The president will do any thing he can to allay want of confidence. He does not see. however, what he can do. He is not responsible for the action of the state legislatures. He is willing to meet the railroadB half way." ~ W*M> la *eope«s1Wet - , Michigan Central pasaeager train No. 201, bound in from Bay City,] plowed through a south bouad Fourteenth street car at the Fourteenth street creasing, Detroit, Friday morning, fatally injuring Joe.

Mr. Robert Odbert, a machinist, living at 201 Cameron Street, Detroit,. Mich., had a~ very distressing experience with rheumatism for about twoyears. . He makes the following statement: * "About the year 1S8T I felt the effects of rheumatism which sradually grew worse until 1 was compslled togive up work .for a time. The years of '9? and $8 I was confined to my bed most of the time. I was under doctors* treatment but found no relief. My legs were swollen from the hips downward and red blotches appeared all over them. Frequently they-<palnedme so that I had to bind them tightly with strips of Jinen. This sometimes relieved the pain but at other times failed to do so. At times I had to crawl to my work, using two crutohea. During these spells I Buffered greatly from pain around my heart which I attributed to the rheumatism. "At last my mother asked me to try Dr. Pills. .1 did and in foundf myself getting had AO trouble, since, J m l ^ H n r that I consider myself perfectly cured. I have not had the least sign of the disease since and feel better now than I ever did. For these reasons 1 recommend Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to any one affected the same as I was."

"After my granddaughter of about seven years had been cured of the pieasles, she was attacked, about a fortnight later by a furious itching and painful eruption all over her body, especially the upper part of It, forming watery and bleeding sores, especially under the arms, of considerable size. She suffered a, great deal and for three weeks we mused her every night, using all the remedies we. could think of. Nothing would help. tYfc tried the Cuticura Remedies and fcfteV twentyfour hours we noted considerable improvement, and after using only one complete set of the Cuticura Remedies, in five consecutive days the little one, much lo our joy, had been entirely cured, and has been well for a long linif.

'^Airii . . - ^ . ^ 1 * -m One of the Important Duties of Physicians and the Wen-Informed of the World is to learn as ib the relative standing and reliability of the leading manufacturers of medicinal agents, as the most eminent physicians are the most careful as t o the uniform quality and perfect purity of remedies prescribed by them, and it is well known to physicians and the Well-Inforined generally that the California Fig Syrup Co., by reason of its correct methods and perfect equipment and the ethical character of its product has attained to the high standing in scientific and commercial circles which is accorded to successful and reliable houses only, and, therefore, that the name of the Company has become a guarantee of the excellence of its remedy. TRUTH AND QUALITY appeal to the Well-informed in every walk of life and are essential to permanent success and creditable, standing, therefore we wish to call the attention ol all who would enjoy good health, with its .blessings, to the fact that it involves the question of right living with all the term implies. With proper knowledge of what is best each hour of recreation, of enjoyment, of contemplation and of effort may be made to contribute to that end and the use of medicines dispensed with generally to great advantage, but as in many instances a simple, wholesome remedy may be invaluable if taken at the proper time, the California F i g Syrup Co. feels that it is alike important to present truthfully t h e subject and to supply the one perfect laxative remedy which has won the appoval of physicians and the world-wide acceptance of the Well-informed because of the excellence of the combination, known to all, and the original method of manufacture, which is known to the California Fig Syrup Co. only. This valuable remedy has been long and favorably known under the name of— ' Syrup of Figs—and has attained to world-wide acceptance as the most excellent of family laxatives, and as its pure laxative principles, obtained from Senna, are well known to physicians and the Well-Informed of the world to be the best of natural laxatives, we have adopted the more elaborate name of—Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna- as more fully descriptive of the remedy, but doubtless it will always be called for by the shorter name of Syrup of Figs—and to get its beneficial effects always note, when purchasing, the full name of the Company —California Fig Syrup Co.-— plainly printed on the front of every package, whether you simply call for — Syrup oi Figs—or by the full name—Syrup of Figs and Erixfr of Senna—as—Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna — is the one laxative remedy manufactured by ihe California Fig Syrup Co. and the same heretofore known by the name — Syrup of Figs — which has given satisfaction to millions. The genuine is for sale by all leading druggists throughout the United States in original packages of one size only, the regular price of which is fifty cents per bottle. * { Every bottle is sold under the general guarantee of the Company, filed with the ., Secretary of Agriculture, at Washington, D .

PROWIIETO T H U R S D A Y , A P R I L 4, 1907. ADDITIONAL LOCAL The Interstate Commerce Commission in Washington has an expert statistician who after an exhaustive examination of the cost of the transportation of the United States mails by railroads finds that the Government pays the road $31.75'per ton for conveying mail matter from New York to Buffalo but that the Express Companies pay only $12.50 per ton between the two cities for the same weight. The question is why should the Government pay more than the Express Companies? i r - •< Thode who enjoy fiabing have been looking over their "tackle" the past week.

According to his idea, he was always faultlessly attired, and his makeup once soon-would never be furgotten. Ho usually wore a bell shaped , white silk high Jiat with long whiskers on it, a plaited and frilled whito shirt' front, with a high standing collar, car- j dinal necktie or scarf, huff waistcoat, j maroon colored Prince Albert coat with gold buttons, yellow trousers, patent leather shoes aud soft frilled cuffs, which matched his shirt front, around his wrists. On the thumb of his loft hand was an amethyst rim; encircled with perfectly matched diamonds and a bunch of old fashioned and [ seals in heavy gold settings dangled from his watch fob. This was hiusual makeup when he attended to business at his office, which was in the old Freodmen's bank building, opposite the treasury department; or visit ed the T'nited States supreme court to ! participate in cases which concerned dish of j g ^ e government. His voice was pitch- j j ed in a high key, and this peculiarity | was intensified by his sartorial getup. j which always made him conspicuous at any gathering. Apparently ho w.ioblivious of the sensation which his appearance almost invariably created. —Charleston News.

"It will not trouble me, und, as for you, you must remember that when a couple separates neither has any control over the acts of the other." This was an ounce of prevention instead of a pound of cure. The lady was staggered. "That's when they are divorced," she said. "A divorce would necessarily follow In time. It's a great drawback In every way for a couple to be married and live apart." "And you would marry your old, flame?" "Since that pertains to me at a pe rlod after our separation I must decline to take you into my confidence." "Why hot shut up the house—you go In one direction, I in another?" "What advantage would there be iu that?" "You wouldn't need a housekeeper." "I'm content here. I have no desire to leave my comfortable home." "I see how it is. You're trying to get me out so that you can get that horrid Mrs. Beardslee in my place." She put her handkerchief to her eyes; but, repressing her tears, she nerved herself to appear indifferent. "When do you go?" he asked with out noticing her remark. "I shall consult my own convenience. I'm not going to be turned out of house and home till I get ready, and If It is for the purpose of making room for your old flame I shall not go at all." "If you go, I shall certainly get Mrs. Beardslee to keep house for me, if I «an." "Oh, never fear for t h a t She'll come quick enough." "Then I understand that you will not go?" "No, I w o n ' t " "And you are disposed t o stand my! brtrt^lrry for a lifetime?" T o r ages rather than have tbat woman come into the house, I being turned out of It." "Suppose we spend the evening at the theater. I've been rather triad Iu a business matter today, aud I think some recreation would do me good." She glanced at him. He looked tired and careworn. "After all," she said, "I think I have been the one to blame. Yes, let's go to the theater." What took place during the next few minutes would not sound as wall In Words as In the original.

At tb» present time the most popuar and fashionable variety Is the Angora or Persian, a long-haired cat— and blues and silvers claim the distinction of having the largest number of breeders and admirers. The notoriety of this particular breed of cat, commonly, Is chiefly due to the difficulty that has been experienced in the production of a perfect specimens says Home Magazine. These cats should be without any bars or stripes, which constitute the chief beauty of tha tabby breeds. The Angoras or Persians are large and finely furred, having splendid long coats, with head almost burled in fluff and ruff, and fine spreading tails. The blue Persian Ijas orange eyes—the white, blue -ejree. Black, trhite, cream, orange and tortoise-shell Angoras all have their special admirers, and classes are provided for each pf these less popular breeds nowadays. Smoke Persians claim more than a passing mention, for they are extraaaely quaint and beautiful, with their dark outer fur and white under coats, pale gray frills and black faces. EVENTS NOTED DIVISION OF SCHOOL MONEY IS SAID TO BE ON WRONG BASIS. BABE BORN IN SNOWBANK Hor»t Bit Off Man's Ear—Things That Havs Happened Durtftg the Past Ftw Days. South Dakota is going to divorce itself from the divorce evil, at least to a considerable extent. The people of that state have become disgusted at the ease and frequency with which divorot* are obtained there, and particularly displeased because of the scandal involved in the manner in which outsiders use the easy laws of that locality in severing matrimonial ties, and a change has been insisted upon. As it stands now a six months' residence gives a person the right to sue for divorce. The legislature has passed a bill fixing the period of residence at one year in the state and three months in the county in which proceedings are instituted, and providing that all hearings shall be in open court. It is alleged, says Troy Times, that this will put an end to the "divorce industry" in which B© many outsiders have engaged, and that South Dakota will cease to be the Mecca of unhappily mated individuals anxious for quick release. A New Basis Auked. The department of public instruction is urgiag the passage ot a bill now before the legislature providing for a division according to the number of teachers employed rather than the number of pupils, as at present. A statement issued says; "The present Jaw limits the use of the school interest money to the payment of teachers' wages aJrd there are 1,300 districts in the state which receive more money from this fund than is used for teachers' wages, and the balance tied up at the end of the year in the treasuries of these districts amounts to over $800,000. "At the same time there are'1,000 districts in the state ,w.ith less than 15 children, an*,£50 districts in the state unable; to maintain school for more than six months. If this surplus could be distributed to these small districts the state would be doing its full duty toward the education of all the children. The present system of apportionment makes it impossible to relieve the people in the sparsely settled and poorer portions of the state. The following conclusions are drawn from statistics which are quoted in the statement: "Nearly 1,300 districts receive more primary money than they need. "That 2,600 districts received less than they need for teachers' wages. "The cost of schools does not depend upon the number of children, therefore, the number of children is an unfair basis for state aid." A Pitiful Story. Miss Briita Hautlgarvi, aged 23, a Mrs. M. J. Ross, mother of Postmaster Ross of Fort Gibson, I. T., has Just passed her seventy-ninth year, and she is perhaps the most distinguished Cherokee woman now living. She was bars in Georgia. Her father was Louis Rosa, orether of John Ross, muiuefttioaably the most noted chief of the Cherokees, having ruled over 40 years. The late Queen Victoria was a most diligent and voluminous letter writer. Proof of this fact will come out in the fall in three thick volumes containing her letters written between 1837 and 1861. To the extent that these letters bear upon public matters they will be a valuable contribution to the history of the long reign of the queen. iy***-. Russia is evacuating Manchuria.

He had been all animation and eagerness in the telling of the story, but had now become curiously silent and listless; so that, although she was eager *wt£h many questions about what he had said, she did not ask them, waiting, to see if he would not talk again. But instead of talking, he stayed silent and presently began to fidget in his chair. At last he said, "If you'll excuse us, Miss Prudence, your pa and I have got a little business matter to talk over—to-night. 1 guess we can go down here by the corral and do it."

"Why your 4!ace is actually wet with a cold sweat; You ought to come in at once." . "After a very little, dear. Go to bed now—and always be a good girl!" "And you've grown so hearse sitting here.'7 VIn a tittle while,—always* be a good girl!" She went in with a parting admonition: 'Remember your cough—good night!" When she had gone neither man stirred for the space of a minute. The little man, huddled in his seat, had not changed his position; he still sat with his chair tilted back against the house.--his chin on his breast.. The other had remained standing where the, gir\ left him, the revolver in his hand. After the minute of •Hence he crossed over and stood in front of the seated man. "Come." he said, gruffly, "where do you want to go?" CHAPTER XXIX. How the Avenger* Bungled His Vengeance. , At last he stood up, slowly; unsteadily, srasrping Follett- by : the arm for support. He spoke almost in a whisper. "Come back here first—to t a l k - then I'll go with you.' He entered the 'louse, the young man following close, suspicious, narrowly watchful. "No fooling now,—feel the end of that gun in your back?" The other made no reply. Inside the door he took a candle from the box against the well and lighted It. "Don't think I'm trying anything— come here." They went on, the little bent man ahead, holding the candle well up. His room was at the far end of the long house. When they reached it, he closed the door and fixed the candle on the table in some of Its own grease. Then he pointed Follett to the one stool in the little cell-like room, and, threw bjmaelf lace down on the bed. FoUett, still standing, waited for him to speak. After a moment's silence he grew impatient. "Come, come! What would you be saying if you were talking? I can't wait here all night." Bat the little man on the bed was still silent, nor did he stir, and after another wait Follett broke out again. "If you want to talk, talk, I tell \ow. If you don't want to, I can say all I have to say, quick." Then the other turned himself over on the bed and half sat up, leaning on his elbow, "I'm sorry to keep you waiting, but you see I'm so weak"—the strained little- amile came to his face—"and tremble so, there's so much to think of— do you hear those women scream— there! did you hear that?—but of course not. Now—wail just a moment —have you come to kill me?" "You and thoae two other hellions —the two that took me and that boy out that night to bury us." "Did you think of the consequences?" « - **! reckon you'd be called paid for, any time any one come gunning tor 1 ytnr I <dM»'t think there'* be any con- .•sequencef."4 \ 47tteteait*f, T mean;' t© your soul, t fcWsj^m f * J * m 4tt»'< «nit • little longer!

"•Tou're right—that's so. But I'm telling you truth now—those two men had both been in the Meadows that day and it killed them.. One went crazy and ran opinio the desert. They found his bones. The other shot himself a few years ago. Those of us that live are already in hell-^-" He sat up, now animated for the moment. , , , , . . . - "—In hell right, here, J tell you. I'd have welcomed you, or any other man that would kill me, any time this 15 years. I'd have gone out to meet you. Do you think I like to hear the women scream? Do you think I'm not crazed myself by this thing—right back of. me here, now—crawling, bleeding, breathing on me-1-trying to come here in front where I must see It? Don't you see God has known how to punish me worse than you-could, just by keeping me alive and sane? Ob, man! you don't know how I've longed for that bullet of yours, right here through the temples where the cries sound worst. I didn't'dare to do It myself—I was afraid I'd make my punishment worse if I tried to shirk; but ever.* You'll be in hell as sure as you do,—a hell right here that you must carry inside of you forever—that even God can't take out of you. Follett slowly put the revolver into its. holster and sat down on the low stool. „ "I don't know anything about all this helUalk, but I see I can't kill you— you're' such a poor, miserable cuss. And I thought you were a big, strong man, handy with a gun and aU that, and like as not I'd have to make a quick draw on you when the time come. And now look at you! Why, Mister, Tm doggoned if I ain't almost sorry for you! You sure have been getting your deservance good and plenty.^ Say, what In God's name did you all do such a hellish thing for, anyway?" ;' "We had been persecuted, hunted, and driven, our Prophet murdered, our women and children butchered, aad another army was on the way." "Well, that was because you were such an ornery lot, always setting yourself up against: the government wherever you went, and acting scandalous—" t.We did aa the'Lord directed us—" "Qh, shucks!" "And then we thought the time had ccme^to stand, up for, our rights; that the Lord meant us to be/ree and independent." • "Secesh, eh?*' Follett was anuised. I used to hope you would come as you "You handful of Mormons—Uncle Sam "Oh Man, How I've Longed for That Pullet of Yours!" said you would. I wonder I didn't know you at once." He put his hands to his head and fell back again on the pillow, with a little moan. "Well, it ain't strange I didn't know you. I was looking for a big man. You seemed as big as a house to me that day. I forgot that rd grown up and you might be small. When those fellows got tight up there* and let on like it was you that some folks hinted had took a child and kept it out of that muss, I couldn't hardly believe It; and everybody seeming to regard you so highly. And 1 couldn't believe this big girl was little Prue Girnway that l remembered. It seemed like you two would have to be a great big man and a little bit of a baby girl with yellow hair; and now 1 find you're—say, Mister, honestly, you're such a poorv brokedown, little coot it seems a'most like a shame to put a bullet through you, in spite of all your doings!" The little man sat up again, with new animation in his eyes,—the same eager boyishness that he had some;' how kept through a.t his years. "Don't!" he exclaimed, earnestly. "Let me beg you, don't kill me! For your own sake—not for mine. I'm a poor, meatless husk. I'll die soon at best, and I'm already in e hell .you can't make any hotter. Let me do yon this service; let me persuade you not to kill me. Have you ever killed a man?" . "No. not yet; Tve allowed to a couple of times, but it's never come just tbat» way." "You ought to thank God. D**'t could have licked you with both hands tied behind him. Why, you crazy tool, he'd have spit on you and drowned every last one of you, old Brlgham Young and ah Fighting the United States! A few dozen women-butchers going to do what the whole South couldn't! Well, I am danged." He mused over it, and foe ajvbile neither spoke. "And the nearest you ever got to it. was cutting up a lot of women and children after you'd cheated the men into giving up their guns!" The other groaned. "There now, that's right—don't von see that hurts worse than killing?" "But I certainly wish I could have got thoae other two that took us off into the sage-brush that, night. I didn't guess what for, but the first thing 1 knew the other boy was scratching. and kicking, and hollering, and like to have wriggled away, so the cuss that was with me ran up to help. Then 1 heard little John making a kind of a sqneally noise in his throat like be was being choked, and that was all I wanted. I legged it into the sagebrush. I heard them swearing and coming after me. and ran harder, and, what saved me, I tripped and fell down and hurt myself, so I lay still and they lost track of me. I was scared, I promise you that; but after they got off a ways I worked in the other direction by spells till I got to a little wady, and by sunup they weren't in sight any longer. When I saw the Indiana coming along I wasn't a bit •eared. I knew they weren't Mormons." . - ; . . - "I used to pray that you, might come back and kill me." "I used to wish I would grow faster so I could. I was alwayB laying out to do it." "But see how I'ja^MeA punished. Look at me—I'm BO. 1 ought to be in my prtmf. See hew Vrv been burnt * out."- , -£ > t i'f - 3 ^ "But Jook hf A, Mfrter, what about this girl? Do you think you've been doing right by keeping her here?" "No, no! it was-a wrong as great as the other." "Why, they're even passing remarks about her mother, those that don't know where you got her,—saying it was some one you never married, because the book shows your first wife was this one-handed woman here." ' I know, I know it. I meant to let her go back at first, but she took hold of me, and her father and mother were both dead." "She's got a grandfather and grandmother, alive and hearty, back at Springfield." "She is all that has kept me alive these last years. "She's got to go back to Ler people now. She'll want to bad enough when she knows about this." "About this? Surely you won't tell her^-" "Look here now, why not? What do you expect i" "Bot she loves me—she does—and she's all I've got. Man, man! don't pile it all on me just at the last." He was off the bed and on his knees before Follett. "Don't put it all on me. I'.ve rounded up .my back to the rest of it, but keep this off; please, please don't. Let her always think I'm not bad. Give me that one thing cut of all the world." He tried to reach the young man's hand, but was pushed roughly away. "Don't do that—get up—stop, I tell you. That ain't ahy way to do. The*e now! Lie down again. What do you want? I'm not going to leave that girl with you nor with your infernal Church. You understand that." "Yes, yes, I know it It was right that you should be the one to come and take her away. The* Lord's vengeance was well thought out. Oh. how much more He can make us suffer than you could with your clumsy killings! She must go, but wait—not yet —not yet. Oh, my God! I couldn't stand it to see her go. It would cut into my heart and leave me to bleed to death. No. no, no—don't: Please don't! Dcn't pile it all on me at the last. The end has come anyway. Don't do that—don't, don't!" ''There,, there, be still now." There was a rough- sort of soothing in Fol lett's voice, and they were hoth silent a moment. Then the young man went' on: ' "But what do you expect? Suppose everything was left to you. -Mister. Come now. you're trying to talk fair. Suppose I leave if to you—only you know you can't keep her." . "Yes, it can't be. but lei her stay a Uttle whUe: lei me «e, her a few times more; h>t me know she doesn't think I'm bad; and promise never to tell her all of it. Let her always think I was a good man. Do you promise uie that. I'd do it for you, Follett. It won't hurt yon. Let her think t was a good man." ''How long do you want rrer to slay here?—a week, ten days?" "It will kill me when she goes!" "Oh, well, two weeks?" "That's good of you: you're kinder at your age than 1 was—t shall die when she goes." "Well, I wouldn't want to live if I were you." "Just a little longer, knowing that she cares for me. I've never been free to have the love of a woman the way you will some day. though I've hungered and sickened for it—for a woman who would understand and be close. But this girl has been the soul of it some way. See here, Follett. let her stay this summer, or until I'm dead. That can's be a long time. I've felt the end coming for • fee* a*w.

"Well,—whttT •*' "That candle is going out,—we'll be In t>e dark"—he grasped the other's arm—"in the dark, and now I'm afraid again. Don't leave me here! It would be an awful death to die. Here's thai thing now on the bed behind me. It'a trying to get around in front where I'll have to see it—get another candle. No—don't leave me,—this one will go out while you're gone." AH hie strength went into the grip on Follett's arm. The candle was sputtering in its pool of grease. "There, it's gone—now don't, don't leave me. It's trying to crawl over me—I smell the blood—" "Well—lie down there—it serves you right. There—stop it—I'll stay with you." Until dawn Follett sat by the bunk, submitting his arm to the other's frenzied crip. From time to time he somewhat awkwardly uttered litUe words that weie meant to be soothing, as he would have done.to a frightened child. When morning brought the gray light into the little roomi the BKunted man fell into a doze, and Follett, gently unclasping the bands from hia arm, arose and went softly out.1 He was cramped from sitting still so long, and chilled, and his arm hurt where the other had gripped it. He pulled back tlie blue woollen sleeve and saw above his wrist livid marks where the nails had sunk into his flesh. . Then out of the room back of him came a sharp cry, as from one who had awakened from a dream of terror. He stepped to the door again and looked in. "There now—don't be scajjed any more. The daylight has eope;Hlt*» *JI right—all right—go to sleep m* «7* • He stood listening until t&e. had come to kill was again quiet. he went outside and over to the creek back of the willows to bathe in th# fresh running water. CHAPTER XXX. Rue! Follett'* Way of Business. By the time the women were stirring that morning, Follett galloped up on his horse. Prudence saw him from the doorway as he turned in fjom the main road, sitting his saddle with apparent carelessness, his arms loose from the shovOders, shifting lightly with the horse's motion, as one who had made the center of gravity his slave. It was, a. style of riding that would have made a scandal in any riding school; but it seemed" to be weti calculated for* the qntefc halts, sudden swerves, and acute angles effected by the yearling steer in his moments of excitement. , Me dismounted, glowing fresn his bath in the icy water of the. creek and from the,' headlong gallop- up'from Beil Wardle's corral. ••Good mdrntif.

She smiled! with unaffected gladness. and he noticed that her fresh morning color was like that of the little wild roses he had lately brushed the dew from along the creek "We shall be glad to have you." "It's right kind of you; I'm pro%Kl. bear yon say so." He had tak the saddle with its gay colored Navajo blanket, and the bridle of plaited rawhide with its conchos and its silver bit Now he rubbed the back of his horse where the saddle had been, ending with a slap that sent the beast f&. with head down and glad heels in the air. (TO BE CONTINUE!*,) o*d to ee e«r Hen a Clever Pickpocket A hen with a neck like a turkey and • one leg an inch shorter than the other ! attracted attention here a tew days ago and caused a^ much merriment ?s ; a one-ring circus, says the New York ; World man at McKeever. N. Y. The fowl, which was said TO be two years old. rvas the property of an or gan grinder, who carried it on top of his organ instead of a nioakey. He had taught it to do several tricks, and it is safe to say that it collected more pennies than the average simian. When the organ grinder struck the village the hen was perched on top of one shoulder, emitting sounds between a crow and a squeal. This naturally attracted attention and soon a small crowd was assembled. As soon as enough had arrived the her dropped to the ground and began to navigate in a series of circles toward possible don a tors of coin. Owing to the fact that one leg was shorter than the other it could not proceed in a straight line, and ita efforts tp pick up pennies tossed on the ground were extremely ludicrous. Once It had a coin in its beak the hen would flutter and squawk aafl circle back to the grinder and place the treasure is his breeches pocket. Then it would navigate back to the crowd and look for more. The long neck of the fowl was of advantage, for. by standing Qfx the tttt* ol it? long leg. it cottM tfeagem veet^poekfU for pennies.
