The members ^hook hands all around, the good byes were said and grips in band they i'eparted. The speaker of the house and the president of the senate remained until Wednesday to sign bills a» they were engrossed by the clerks,. and each < ay there was a formal n 11 call. At 12 o'clock Wednesday noon the 139th the presiding officers of the respective houses announced the adjournment .^ i tic dtf. A n u m b e r of i m p o r t a n t measures, some of them b a t an i uncalled for measures, die.i in the senate. Among them were tho bill to restrict the number of convicts tfcmt may be employed on uny particular work, the limit being l'O. This was intended as a blow a t the i etroit house of correction. The bill to appropriate $20,000 for machinery to s t a r t work in Jackson i>ri«ou on state account was not reached The bill to regulate Ashing in the waters of the g r e a t lakes failed. The 1'etroit asse sors hill was rejected. The hill to re p u r e corporations to s<dl lands held by them for ten years failed also. The inter state commerce act had twenty of its twenty-three sei tions e iminated, and thus^ was made comparatively reasonable. When it was returned to ttie house Mr. ltogers feit disgusted and himself moved to have the bill laid on the table. The two and a half cents a mile railroad bill, though it pa s>'d the house, was not reached in the senate, the senate railroad committee being much opposed to the idea of lower fares. The Oscoda anil Au SSable consolidation bill died on the table. The new liquor tax bill has an amendment which provides for the summary I closing of saloons and wholesale liquor es- 1 tablisuinents which have not paid the tax. j The police tif Detroit are given full. urisdi tion to en'oree the regulations of the j ne^ liquor law in tl.eiowu hips of iSpriugj wells l i r e n t i e ' d , Hamti aaicu and (iro>se ! Pointe. A number of mo nted police will be equipped to patrol the highways and by-ways of those townships and hold.saloon- keepers to a strict observance of the : law. The house pa>sed a concurrent lesolu" tion authori. mg the stute military board.' if in accord with their judgement, to send to 1 hiladelphianext September to p otiei- ! pate iu the grand parade ot the military i and naval forces of the I nited States, and of tiie var.ous states and territories, ,-uch companies, regiments . or parts of regiments a might be deemed proper. Tue expense of the contemplated • xhibition was to be tai en from tue military fund and that there might be a sullicient nnioeut available, tlie legislature authorized the Mate military board t > change the ai -range men s for the annual encampment or to entirely suspend it for the pre.-ent year. The resolution failed in the senate, and so the Michigan soldiers i wf^l have no opportunity to c o m p e t e w i t h i the soldier- of other states at the great ! constitutional celebration. J The appropriation of $5()0 to enable the i governor and supreme court nidges to visit Philadelphia no.vt September and at- | tend the celebnitiou of the adoption ot the constitution pa-sud the house but died in the senate. A report was made against it. The senate tias passed the bill for indeterminate sentences. This permits judges | to e n i e n c e a person convicted of felony, > without prescribing the term. '1 ho prison otli da! may then release the otfemler on parole for good behavior, miitmay* fix the term of sentence: but this cannot be for a 1 g eater or less time than that prescribed I by law • The house has been considering the amendments made to the liquor tax bill • by i lo senate. The amendment fixing the ! t:i.\ at f!i( 0 was non concurred in. The J a m e n d m e n t allowing tho bondsmen of sa loon-keepers to be taken from the township at large was defeated. '1 he amendment allowing sa oons to open ' at . o'clock in the morning, instead of at ; "> o'clock, was concurred in: tho one clos- ] in^ saloons at 11 o .clock, dt night, instead ; of Hi o c.o k, was lost. Mr. La Du, the i-groat chanipion of prohiV4twn legislation ' ! and leader in formulating temj erance : legislation, criticised this action. He | thought it not rationally accounted for, I and would have much preferred to fix the : closing hour at 11 rather than, to open it : at fi. At tho early morning hours laborj ers. he-said, might imbibe a glais or two j aud I ecome unfitted for work, losing their ! wHges for the day and squandering the | earning- of the day before. The 11 o'clock limitation was a small evil in c omparison. The summary arrest provision Was nonconcurred in. The house committee on ways and means repot te the university appropriation bill with a reduction of fcioj OJ from the form in which it p is-ed the senate, viz., at ¢:55,- 0 t) for the nuilding and eiluipment^fet a scientific laboratory.. A motion to make the a m o u n t $50.00-.) was lout and the bill passed, and now goe< to the senate for concurrence. The bill to allow the commitment and detention o female children to the House of the Good shepherd in D e t r o i t passed the senate, but failed of passage in tho house yeas. :-,11-. nays, '^2. It was reconsidered and referred to the < ommittee on the judiciary. Tho governor has appointed as commissioners under the Gettysburg bill, George K. BrigL's of Grand ' Hapids. George \V. Crawford of Big Rapids and I'cter Lennon of Genesee. The house defeated the bill making it obligatory upon the board of control of Northern Michigan asylum tu employ a. homeopathic physiciun as medical superintendent. The senate committe on appropriations and Jinan e has made a report on .the house bill to equalize bounties to vof'un teers in the late war of the rebellion. They examine the laws and reports upon the subject and reach the conclusion that the state does not owo the increa ed bounties Proposed as a m a t t e r of equity or justice.' hey examine the question whether tho statu owes the bounties inierenti dly and morally, and answer it in the negative. Then they come to the third and last question: Ought the s t i t e to generously and philanthroplcalty give this money: Their answer to this is in p a r t as follows: Kvi dently the legislatures of ail tuese t w e n t y years have-believed t h a t they must be ust hefi re they cou'd be generous. But in a question of generosity the first point to Ascertain is the a m o u n t asked. Gen. Robertson's answer tcrthis que tion says: "To e ualize baunties on the basis of ¢100 to each man, as near as can now be estimated, would require the sum of 16.783 6W and to make the ba*ls 1150 to each man, 60 per cent more, or |10,i7M>o." Now the chief argument in favor of additional bounties a t s 1 is that the sum paid should be equalized, and w h a t e v e r this p oves is ia favor of the U*E.*r sum, costing more t h a n f ±0,000,000. n Tact, ft we are not to • uali • there i< no a r g u m e n t in favor of a n y t h i n g . So we s r s \ c o n f r o n t e d with this e a o i m o a s s u m of t e a millions. Can generosity be asked now on the ground t h a t the state or its citizens have not been liberal before? Recall to mind the large local bounties paid by ci iea villages, t o w n s snd individuals for volunteers. The provost marshal general's rep o r t say-: Michigan paid *Ki.o4,.s~'5, and t h a t officer states in his report t h s t th s sum does not include nearly all counties paid, for he was unable t o obtain full e poxta* a n d from assay localities no reports. The state itselr paid In bounties 9 ,08(.70 '. This deducted from the aggregate would show t h a t the amount reported as paid by the localities was ¢7,^^-0,155 This enormous suru does not show lack of liberality, h u t thisJis not all. When the soldier was enlisted, liberality had only usthe^un. Hecall the law which provided by counties for the families of soldiers d a r i n g tii' ir absence. There are no doubt many men in this senate who were st pervi o r s o u r ng those 3 ears of war and who deult out to wives and children of those toldiers, I , ¢1 >, ¢:5 and even $ 0 per month for yeurs. l b e aggregate of these sums' has never been, never can le computed. 'Ihe committee refer further to the amount- paid to the sold ers by the general government and to the amount expended for tho soldiers' home, and close with recommending t h a t the bill do not pass. The house took up the same sub ject as a s p e c i a l order, there I ei »g two bills on the subject, one to provide for the ud usting a u d p a y m e n t of state bounties to Michigau so.diers, and one to provide f<••' the p a y m e n t of such bounties as maj oe due under act numbe:1 2"» of the session Isws of 1MU. The bi Is were agreed to without debate, and were placed on the order of third reading. A motion to p u t tho last named bill on its immediate passage failed. The university appropriation bill came up in the house th» other day, the ouestion being the passage ef the bill over, the governor's veto. Tlie m a t t e r was thoroughly discussed, the governor's objections taken up one by one and considered. 'Ihe vote was taken, and stood 4< yeas, to 4> n a y s ; absent or not voting, fX The same evening the senate took up the second bill origiin lly introduced for the m a i n t e n a n c e of the University of Michigan. It is in terms precisely similar to the bill vetoed by the governor except t h a t the appropriation for a building for the scientific and ex erimental laboratory is *50 O.HJ. being $.!v o i;e-s than the former -biH—M-r-r Mayo of ('allmun moved to-strike ey,t the appropriation for the building, lie gave some pueri e reasons lor this and was cnarged by Mr. J. W. Babcoclc with running to the governor's office to get his reasons. Mr.Hubbeb ridiculed the absurd course of Mr. May. The moti n to strike ont received but five votes. .The bill passed, three votes only in the negative, and was sent to the hou>o".- The amendments to the game law occupied tho attention of the seri'ite a few days a;^o. Messrs. Harshaw, Crosby. J. W. Dabeock, liowell, Sharp and O'Keilly endeavored to have struck out the prov isioji making it unlaw,ul to use dogs iu hunting deer, but their most industrious efforts were of no avail. The only amendment made to the bill was one limiting the deer hunting season in tho upper peninsula fi om October 1 to Aovember 15. Tho biU takes effect Uctoher 1. The. governor ho* approved the acts consolidating Saginaw and East Saginaw and Hay City and West bay < ity. He a>ks friends of the Mining School bill to recall it. If not a veto is expected Gov. Luce has approved the loc:il option bill, the appropriation of $ 0 0 0 or bui.ding rtlid improvements at the ;-tate normal school, anil the hill recently puss d making a further appropriation for tho Michigan soldiers' home.

The perfect accuracy with which scientists are enabled to deduce the most minute particulars in their several departments, appears almost miraculous, if we view it in the light of the early ages. Take, for example, the electro-magnetic telegraph, the greatest invention of the age. Is it-not a marvelous degree of accuracy which enables an operator to exactly locate a fracture in a submarine cable nearly three thousand miles long ? Our venerable "cleric of the weather" has become so thoroughly familiar with the most wayward elements of nature that he can accurately predict their movements. He can sit in Washington and foretell what the weather will bn in Florida or New York as well as if several hundred miles did not intervene between him and the places named. And so in all departments of modern science, what is required is the knowledge of certain A .* mm signs. From these scientists deduce accurate conolBNS OF elusions regardless of distance. 80, also, in medical science, diseases have certain unmistakable Bigns, or symptoms, and by reason of this fact, we have been enabled to originate and perfect a systern of determining, with the greatest accuracy, the nature of chronic diseases, without seeing and personally examining our patients. In recognizing diseases without personal examination of the patienV-we elaim to possess no miraculous powers. We obtain our knowledge cf the patient's disease by the practical application, to the^pxactice of medicine, of well-established principles of modern science. And it is to the accuracy with which this system has endowed us that we owe our almost world-wide reputation of skillfully^-treating lingering or chronic affections. This system of pi»ctioe>an<i the marvelous success which has been attaint through it, demonstrate the fact that diseases display certain phenomena, which, being subjected to scientific analysis, furnish abundant and unmistakable data, to guide the judgment of the skillful practitioner aright in determining the nature of diseased conditions. The most ample resources for treating lingering or chronic diseases, and the greatest skill, are thus placed within the easy reach of every invalid, however distant be or she may reside from the physicians making the treatment of Buch affections a specialty. Full particulars of our original, scientific system of examining and treating patients at a distance are contained in " T h e P e o p l e ' s C o m m o n Sense m e d i c a l A d v i s e r . " By R.

A . d a u g h t e r waa born t o 'Squire George P a r k s , ot Siloam Village, Madison c o u n t y , on March 6, 1 8 4 9 . She was n a m e d E s t h e r Adelia. In her sixteenth year she began t o m a k e a noise in t h e world. While all t h e rest of the family were a w a y from h o m e one d a y , their farmhouse was burned t o t h e around, Esther was found prone on t h e ground, b o u n d h a n d a n d foot, a n d with a gag in her m o u t h .

Not long after this E s t h e r woke up the quiet community by trying to blow her b r a i n s o u t with a rifle. The furrow t h a t the ball plowed remains t o this d a y . A m o n t h or so after this she h a d a fine time in Utira for a few weeks. T h e n she was arrested for masquerading in men's clothes. She was sent t o the hospital,where she m a d e a rope of sheeta.atid escaped. ,„She later m a d e her way t o the Oneida community. This escapade ended in her being sent T o the Utica insane a s y l u m , where she was locked up for several years. Within a few m o n t h s after her re* leasa she w a s married t o a man named Bennett. 13ennett was found one morning a t t h e foot of the s t a i r s with a b r o k e n neck. Esther was arrested, b u t no one had seen Bennett fall, and she was discharged. A'ter this she went t o Oswego and set u p in business as a c l a i r v o y a n t . Then she practiced t h e manly a r t of balloon Hying. Breaking u p families by lyine letters, however, is her stronghold.

The study and firactice of chemical analysis and microscopical examination of he urino in our consideration of cases, with reference to correct diagnosis, in which our institution long ago became famous, has naturally led to a very extensive practice in diseases of the urinary organs. Probably no other institution in the world has been so largely patronized by suffers from this class of maladies as the old and world-famed World's Dispensary and Invalids' Hotel. Our specialists have acquired, through a vast and varied experience, great expertness in determining the exact nature of each case, and, hence, bavo been successful in nicely adapting their remedies for tho euro of each Individual case. These delicate diseases should be carefully treated by a specialist thoroughly familiar with them, and who is competent to ascertain the exact condition and stage of advancement which tho disease hiis pamphlets on nervous diseases, any one of which will be sent foe ten cents in postage stamps, when request for them is accompanied with a statement of a case for consultation, so that we may know which one of our Treatises to send.

Organic weakness, nervous debility, premature decline of the manly powers, involuntary vital losses, impaired memory, mental anxiety, absence / of will-power, melancholy, weak back, and kiny dred affections, are speedily, thoroughly and permanently cured To those acquainted with our institutions, it is-iardly necessary to say that the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, with the branch establishment located at No. 3 New Oxford Street, London, England, have, for many years, enjoyed the distinction of being the most largely patronized and widely celebrated institutions in the world for the treatment and cure of those affections which arise from youthful indiscretions and pernicious, solitary practices. We, many years ago, established a special Department for the treatment of these diseases, under the management of some of the most skillful physicians and surgeons/Hi our Staff, In order that all who apply to us miiht receive all/tne advantages of a full Council of the most experienced spec" GAUTSOI. made (which can only be ascertained by a careful chemical and microscopical examination of the urine), for medicines which are curative in one stage or condition are known to do positive injury in others. We have never, therefore, attempted to put up anything for general sale through druggists, recommending to cure these diseases, although possessing very superior remedies, knowing full well from an extensive experience that the only safe and successful course is to carefully determine the disease and its progress in each case by a chemical and microscopical examination of the urino, and then adapt our medicines to the exact stage of the dis- 1 andjeondition of our patient. To this wise course of action we attribute the marvelous success attained by our specialists in that important and extensive Department of our institutions devoted exclusively to the treatment of diseases of the kidneys and bladder. The treatment of diseases of the urinary organs having constituted a leading branch of our practice at the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, and, being in constant receipt of numerousL inquiries for a complete work on the nature and curability of these maladies, written in a stylo to be easily understood, we hav&nrtibllshed aiarge Illustrated Treatise on these diseases, which will be sent to any address on receipt of ton cents in postage stamps.

The disconsolate wife unable to obtain assistance in her hour of need, now remained faithfully watching by the bedside ot the dying man who appeared to en« tertuin a peculiar dread of being buried alive. "Promise me," he said to hia wife some hours before his death, 4*that> you will not see me buried for a t leas* tour days after I have breathed my last;" to which request the poor woman tearfully assented. All through the day and during the earlier portion of the night the woman «at alonewith her dead, while wit bout, and aa though, already scenting their prey, a pack ot hungry coyotes circled about the isolated abode, ever and anon giving vent to their peculiar and blood-curdling cries.

And we must say to every man. woman and child who owes us a cent that is duo that during the n e x j ^ ^ i j f * .including our guides, Wood 1 and Armstrong, called on the w»y t o Cheyenne. The sad story was soon told, a n d early on the following morning one of the party was sent to Horse Creek for the purpose of obtaining the material tor a Collin. During all this time the widow sat by the bedoid* of her dead husband, at times scrutinizing the features of the latter and momentarily starting,-up as if she faneied she de» tected signs of returning aminatioa* j Kit Armstrong, from whom I received whatever information is here afforded concerning this sad episode, together with his companion Wood, remained during the four days following the death ot the man as described. On the last night of their vigil the woman, worn out from constant watching, consented to take some rest, while to> ward morning both of the watchers also fell asleep. "It is not known at what hour t h e supposed corpse became again animated with life, but it wasfoundupon investigation t h a t the body had a t some time during the night partially turned in the coffin in which it had been plact-d, although the features still bore the same placid expression they had worn tlie day previous. The discovery of this dreadful circumstance proved to be too much for the afflicted wife, who entirely lost her, reason and who thenceforth roamed about in the vicinity of her late home, bein^ generously afforded shelter by those who had purchased tb,r ranch, and superstitiouslv avoided by In* dians who regarded her with awe."

The two Abbotts and the wile of the young man, who is Craig's daughter, are now in jail. The younger Craig will probahly die.

The children of Madame Doyle's school for girls in Detroit, have devised a unique gift for Pope Leo X l l l . on the occasion of ins golden jubilee. It is a rosary, every bead of which is an American gold dollar, while the larger beads are quarter-eagles, The cross is composed of a number of the dollar pieces, S1U0 in coin having entered into the construction of the entire work. The rosary is arranged on a mat of illuminated parchment, and the whole is enclosed in a plush-covered ease, two feet square made up in the paple color, yellow. Some time ago a brakenian on a log train on the D. B. C. ifc A. railroad named Jeo Leclair was struck by a tree falling across the track while he was sitting on his car. Leclair received a broken leg and some slight scratches, which were thought not to amount to much, but later it was found he was hurt internally and a few days later died. Surrogate Rollins of New York has declined to contest the will of the late Jessie Iloyt, by his'daughter, Irene, against her. The litigation has been pending several years. One of the bequests of Mr. Hoyt's will was a S100,000 public library in East Saginaw and a large piece of land for a park. On the Minneapolis^ Sault Ste. Marie & Atlantic railroad, near Thompson, two Italian laborers became involved in a fight, which culminated in adesperate and bloody duel. One was stabbed through the heart and the other so badly mutilated that he cannot recover. In order to secure-tents from the state it has been found necessary to change the •date of the southwestern G. A. R. encampment one week later than originally contemplated. It is officially announced that the dates will he Aug. oO to Sept. 2. inclusive. While three men were ascending on a skip at the Huron mine in Hancock, a fourth attempted to jump in when half way up, Which caused the skip to turn backwards, and all four fell to the bottom •of the shaft and were instantly .killed. Edward Greggs, a miner employed'at the Chapin mine in Ishpeming, set out alone the other night to work, his partner being sick. The next morning lie was found dead at the bottom of the mine. It is supposed he was instantly killed. McLennan it Son of Hay City are shipping a consignment of :-500,000 feet of black and white ash lumber to Africa.

Gov, Richardson of South Carolina has received information from a prominent citizen of Cedar Grove, Laurens county, to the effect that the Negroes of that neighborhood and the adjacent part of Spartanburg count> have organized themselves into secret clubs, ostensibly knights of m)>or. and are holding frequent meetings of an incendiary character, the object of which is to demand of the white fanners an increase ot their wages to £1 and SI.50 a day. and in the event of their demands not being complied with they propose to exterminate the white people ami take possession of their lands. These meetings are held three times a week, between midnight and :» a. m. Pickets are posted around the places of meeting, and the utmost secrecy is observed. Speeches are made, in which the leaders say they will kill all the white men and the old women, take the young women for their wives and make the white children work THE NATION. While insane, W. T. Grigsby, saloonkeeper of Fort Worth, Texas, drew a revolver and declared he would shoot himself. He said he would kill anyone who Interfered, byt l>. 13, Kenuedy, his fast friend, rushed towards him, exclaiming: " H e shall not kill himself, poor feUfcw; 1 will save l i i m . " Grigsby ordered him to halt, but Kennedy did not heed him. Grigsby tired and Kennedy fell dead, with a bullet through his heart. The maniac then seemed to realize what Ire had done, and he sank to the Hour moaning, " T h e gallows; the gallows; 1 am going to tho gallows!" For six months an organized system of brigandage has been sweeping the country in the vicinity of Albuquerque, N. M. Police officers were murdered, trainwrecking, jail-breaking, horse stealing and other outrages were indulged in. Believing that this condition ot atl'airs needs heroic treatment, the citizens of that vicinity have organized n vigilance committee to rid the country of the desperadoes. A young man named Frank Melntyre n^ar Longren, Texas, was handling a gun, pointing it at various objects, when it was accidentally discharged and the load blew half the head from an, infant sister that his mother was nursing and wounded ids mother in the left breast and shoulder. An additional element of horror is lent by the fact that the day before the father had died suddenly. Rev. R. N. Mills of Klmira, X. Y., who had power of attorney from Francis Patterson. the blind man who a week ago received $13,300 pension money, has disappeared with about SS.000 of it. Evidence Is accumulating to show for them as slaves. One of the speakers that the pension was secured by at a recent meeting expected his hearers i fraud. There is no clew to Mill's where to " b u m and kill out the whites, and, if necessary, go down to your graves with bloody feet." The governor's informant states that an outbreak may be expected at any moment, and makes an urgent appeal for help. He also says that the white citizens have organized a cavalry company of fifty, men, but they needarmsand ammunition, which they urge the state authorities to supply them with immediately. The Negroes, it is said, are well supplied with arms and ammunition.. Adjt-General Ronhani being absent, the ((overnor has ordered Colonel Scoltin, the Assistant Adjutant-General, to repair to the scene of the disturbances, investigate the matter and report at once. A full supply of Springfield carbines and ammunition for fifty men are ready for shipment to Laurens. The governor expressed his intention to act promptly and, .vigorously in this matter, and quell "the threatened insurrection at tin* very outset. Should this report of the investigation of the assistant Adjutant-General verify the information already in possession of the govern o r , several companies of the volunteer state troops will be sent to Laurens-to protect the lives and property of the white people. It is believed that these ignoiant Nefljrws are-acting under the direction of Hiram.Hoover, the mischievous labor agitator who visited that section about two months ago, and who was subsequently shot almost to death by a vigilance committee at Warrenton, Ga. ^, E I G H T A S t e a m L I V E S L O S T . l i a r g e S i n k s oft* D l a e k H i v e r .

The vault in the old church a t Cliffe was closed. The wonder, the dismay, the excitement, had all died away. The newspapers had published their last leading article on railway inissmanageinent—the public had discussed the matter in all its branches, and tiie tragedy of the Kstham Tunnel become a thing of the past. Cyril Nalrne had gone back to Inisfall. much to the regret both of Lord Stair and Lady Perth. They would fain have kept him with them; he was so different from every one else—so cheerful, so simple ; but be pined in that luxurious mansion. He wanted the garden and the r i v e r ; he wanted the familiar music of the wind in the great green boughs. Then Lord Stair dociared that he could live no longer at the plaue; he could not bear It. He said that Marguerite's presence haunted him everywhere. He decided on going abroad; so—sad, cheerless, his heart aching with regret and desolation—he left home and went in serch of forgetfulnesa. Whether he ever fouud it— wnether the memory of the gentle young wife and her beautiful face ever died from him—this story will tell. Once more Lady Perth was left in solitary possession of the grand ancestral home of the Stairs. She was completely mistress now, the only change being the nursery and the little Sunbeam. Lord Stair had left his daughter under her care ; she was to have complete charge of the little one, and w i t h that Lady Perth was delighted. She made no change in the establishment; she kept the same nurses and servants; she felt that the time of rest had come n o w ; she might fold her hands, feeling that her work was done. It was not likely t h a t her brother would ever bring home another wife ; she had no fear of that. She felt that her position now was secure. She was a hard, proud, cold woman—evil-minded and cruel; but she could not have been quite without conscience, for she was not quite at rest. She did not like to sit alone in those stately rooms when the wind | wailed round the house ; she did^not. * care to go near the rooms that Laxly Stair had occupied ; she was afraid o r being alone In the dark. The servants noticed, too, how she trembled and shuddered when any one spoke of her mother to the child. There are many kinds of murder; the one she had chosen was certainly not the least cruel. Of Daroy Ivste no news was received for some time ; when it came at last it was sad and brief enough. He died of fever the week after his arrival in India; and Lady Perth read the news with cold, cruel eyes. ''There is an end of all." she said, little dreaming that it was but the beg i n n i n g , J _ * * •;;• • > ; • : ; * A December night, no moon, no stars, no light in the dark heavens, nolight on the dark earth; the bitter wind blowing, and Lady Stair lay for some minutes where she had fallen on the crisp, frosty grass. "Dead in life," she repeated to herself over and over again. '£hen the bitter cold seemed to pierce lver. What should sho do? Where should she go? If she could only close her eyes and die; but death never comes when the wretched call. After a time, when her eyes became accustomed to the darkness, she saw there was a feeble light from the moon ; she rose and looked about her. The embankment she had climbed was a steep one; down below ran the iron rail; she could see in the distance the gitmmer of a Ted light; she was stiil near the tunnel, and saw snmethingof the confusion that was going on. The, l i t occurred to her that the sooner she left that spot the better. She could see no path, no road, but at last she stumbled against a stile; she climbed that and found herself in a field. "If nothing else comes, I can walk t h e fields until morning," she said to herself, and she did so, going through field after field, walking* always like a woman in" a hideous dream. Where was the brave young soldier ''whose tears and kisses still burnect her hands and face? What would he do or say If he knew that she was wandering Her own Idea was still to get to London. She Lad been told t h a t it was the safest hiding-place in the whole wide world. She did not remember t h a t she had toiled through the long night without food,*without r e s t ; she did not know why, as the daylight grew, t h e sight seemed to fade from her eyes, and a strange sensation, as though she must fall at every step, came over her. The little town was called Ling, and. the station was outside. She could got to London from there, she found but there would be many changes, for this was only a branch line from Ling to the country town. It mattered little enough to her. She would reach London some time and she was so tired that even rest hi a railway carriage seemed sweet to her. How far she traveled t h a i day, w h e r e she went, what she did, were details that Marguerite never could remember. To her it was one long dream of being whirled through the cold, bleak country. The old life was all left behind. It did not seem to her t h a t she could be the same Marguerite who had lived at Inlsfail, who had been brought up to love sweet sounds, who had been wooed in the rose garden, who had been taken home to Oakclltie, who had been proudest of mothers when little Sunbeam was born, who had spent, so many happy sunny hours with Darey Este, this same Marguerite who had stood by the Herons' Pool in such a passion of love and d e s p a i r ; all these things seemed to have happened years ago. Who was this tired, wearied^ heart-broken woman, flying as though for very life lest she should be dragged through the divorce court. She came to herself, to the reality of things, when she found herself on the crowded platform of a Londop railway station. Faint from w a n t of food from long and bitter grief, and where should she go, what should she do? Out into the crowded streets, where she / e r f more forlorn and desolate than over, where she was tempted to cry out for help and for pity. Then she saw a quiet, respectable house, a temperance hotel; she would go there and get some tea, then think. But when she had finished the tea she was too tired to move ; she took a room there, and once in it she did not leave it for three days. Wuen at last she was well enough to go down into the ladies' sitting-room the fir^t thing she read was-an account of her own death and funeral. She will never forget t h a t hour; every detail of the scene is impressed on her mind until her death—how the wintery sun stole in at the dirty windows and the faint rays fell on the once smart but ncovv faded carpet. Two other ladies AvereMn the room, one writing, the othefuvatching evidently for some one. They had both read the account, and bad been talking^ about it. They looked at her, and a low cry which she repress came from her. "You are reading that terrible accident," said one. "It has made me quite ill. Poor Lady S t a i r ! " The sound of her own name seemed horribly unreal to her. "I have never read anything half so horrible," chimed the old lauy. "Her head and face were completely burned. Her husband recognized her by her watch, chain, and purse." She read on, with dazed eyes, how she had been buried in the family vault at Cliffe—how her husband and father had both attended her funeral—of all the dismay and sympathy expressed on both sides. The queen ifad sent a telegram of condolence to her husband ! No fear of the divorce court now, no fear t h a t she should hear her beautiful J o v e s t o r y , so shoVt^ so sweet, so s:uiv exposed to the jeers and ridicule of a crowded court, no fear that Lady Perth should tell how the brave young toiler and~ETdi<en her farenow how them ; he dier had kisse w e i l ; lie would ftever know their enemy bail watched would be saved all pain, all suffering, all sorrow,, and her fair name would remain unshadowed. A s s h e sat there holding the paper in her hand she made to herself a solemn vow. As ili'ey believed her dead she would remain so to them ; they should never know that she lived ; she would never go near t h e m ; she would make a life for herself, and they Bhould believe, as they did now. that Marguerite, Lady Stair, lay in the vault at Cliffe. Wu;u s h o r j i c h e d tnis decision she went o u t ; a thick mist was falling, and in the mist of t h a t December day, for a time, Marguerite, Lady Stair, vanished, until the more eventful part of her life came to her. In the cohToTa December night? 431owly all the horrors of that awful scene returned to her. Slowly all the accusations of Lady Perth returned to her. She wrung her hands with passionate pain ; and yet she saw her way to freedom. There would be no more question of the divorce court if they all believed her dead and it was better by far that she should die any death than ftufftr that shame and disgrace; better •tUl if she could die, oolld be dead in life. great, almost horrible, "My head aches; I think," she said to herself; and then the saw tho first gleam of a red dawn In the sky.

Lady Perth, bad married again; wonderful as it may seem, a man had been found brave enough to woo and win her. Lord Stair, aiter the terrible accident, with its terrible ending, remained abroad for ueven years, and during t h a t tfme the proud, cold woman grew tired of the great lonely house, and the lonely life. Sue was still a tine imposing presence, and was thought by some peop.e to be a handsome woman. She met the Maequis of Holte during a visit she paid to Cowes, and, as far a* it was possible, he fell in love with her. The Marquis was a much-tried man, a widower with six daughters, and tuis fact, .which would have prevented many'ladles from accepting him, was an inducement to Lady Perth. To have the lull and entire control of six girls , to plan good marriages for them, was delightful to her; so, when the Centenarians. Prof. Hum breys of Cambridge, England, has been investigating reputed centenarians. He found two males and | nine females who were surely over HO years of age. He remarks: "The ctnteaarifln generally comes from a long-lived family and is a person of active habits both of body and mind,a good sleeper, endowed with a good appetite and a cheerful disposition. They are usually moderate in the indulgence in i liquors or total abstainers. A considerable number of instan es were met with where Bevere illness had been recovered from in advance age, some seeming to take a new lease of iife and throwing off the effects of chronic maladies from which they had previously suffered."

Lord Stair's amazement can be imagined when a letter from his tister summoned him home, because she was going to be married. Ethel was nearly eight years old, and Lady Perth had secured the services o! a moat accomlished lady as governess. T h e r e was no obstacle in the way there was nothing to wait.for, and tho marquis wished the marriage to take place before the season began, so that his wife could take charge of his daugutera while it lasted. So, in tue early spring, Lord Stair The sons of the late "Extra Billy' came home; Lady Perth was married, f Smith of Virginia, were fond of adventure. and a new lite began at Oakcliffe Towers. The lovely little daughter of the house from that day reigned as its mistress, Lord Stair idolized her; he devoted his life to her, and Ethel Stair was worth all the devotion and care lavished upon her. She had grown up beautiful, innocent and graceful. In figure she was tall and slender, as her beautiful mother had been; but while the mother had been fair, with golden hair and vio.et eyes, Ethel had the dark beauty of the Stairs; Her hair was black, her eyes dark and magnificent; the coloring of her face was superb.

When men first began to live In houses one room was all; when another room was added a door with a lock on was put in, and so to this day we keep on putting doors between rooms. No one knows just what they are needed for unless it be to slam and bang and pinch the baby's fingers in—but the builders must put them in. But nowa- days Ibiks are beginning to take them off and in their stead put up curtains— noiseless, pinchless, graceful curtains. Replacing the cold and barren doors with tbe rich and graceful folds of luxuriant tapestry. And all but the carpenters will say it's a great improvement. We keep a very choice selection of these door curtains—Portieres is the name for them. The goods we sell mostly are the Rannie Cloth, Roman Stripe, Egyptian Stripe, and Petit Point Tapestry. In the Cities they generally get a fancy price on these fancy goods—we don't, but sell them just as we do everything else—as cheap we possibly can— which is only another way of saying for about two-thirds of city prices. A novelty in the curtain line are the Sash Curtain)?. A small brass rod subtends the window on a line ot the upper rail of the lower sash; on this are hung curtains of fancy Colored Silks, and a very beautiful and cheering look they give from inside and out. We have the whole outfit. This week there will be a crowd about the Fan and Parasol Counter, but the stock is good and will stand the run, and the prices are such that not i«an> will go away $mpty handed. IX!

It is the duty of every person who has used Boschee's German Svrup to let its wonderful qualities be" known hard veneering. This is light, strong and susceptable ot high finish, and they stay straight and true. That's the peculiarity of these poles. They are elegantly finished in French polish, in a yariety of woods. In this connection we will say we have got all the fittings to go with'the poles—rings, ends &<*.., in wood and brass m all styles, to suit all sorts of fancies and purses. This leads us to say a word about Curtains—the finishing touch to a furnished room. You may lavish the money pn everything else, but if these be wanting there's a cold, unsocial look about the room.

DXPOBITt BSCS1VK&. imttd <m payahU on and COULECTIONS A SP&IALTY, Oa Wednesday eveninpr last a large crowd gathered at the main entrance of oar school building, waiting for tbe doors to be opened. At a quarter past seven the bell tapped and the large folding doors swung on their binges and the crowd surged into the building and continued to come until every seat contained at least three and there were over 100 chairs furnished and still the crowd came until the halls and winding stairway was crowded with people each eager to hear the speeches of our seven promising young people w'uo have finished their school work and graduated with honors. As our scribe had a seat aboui in the center of the building he could not tell anything about how many there were who could not gain an entrance but was ^assured that there were many. Owing to the crowd and the time in getting seated it was nearly 9 o'clock before the orchestra struck up and played in their usual line way a good selection and the way they were .cheered made them feel that they were appreciated. After tbe music by the orchestra the class marched to the stage amidst clapping of hands and took their places in the chairs arranged for them among an array of flowers that made one think of a tropical scene. At the back of the stage were arranged two flags bearing the stars and stripes and the front was draped with yards upon yards of fancy bunting, while suspended through the center and over their beads hung the motto "Plus Ultra," in beautiful sparkling letters. After the seating of the class, Rev. W. G. Stephens led in prayer which was followed by a selection by the Ladies1 quartette. These singers are so well known here that they need no comment except to say that they fairly outdid themselves. As the quartette took their seats Miss Amelia Goodspeed arose and came to the front of the stage, giving the title ot her essay or speech, "Reflection," then gave without the use of paper, (as did every member of the class,) her selection word for word and the thoughts brought fourth showed that she had been 'reflecting' on the subject for some time and was well acquainted with it. At the close of Miss Goodspeed's recitation, W. H. Cadwell advanced and announced his subject, "Business or Profession, Which?11 From the manner in which he handled bis subject it was plain to be seen that he bad made a study of both callings and that he knew that there were trials to overcome in eithefi: of them. Miss Mabel Mann sung a solo, "In Miss Nina Younsrlove's recital,'Pinckney people know bow to do so "Discontent," was well written and well delivered. She has evidently found out that the root of all failure in life is discontent and that to be suecessful one roust shun it. MIPS Alma Howard sang, "Blossoms," and wan followed by Miss Mollie Wilson with her essay, "Tides." This is a very fine subject and Miss Wilson handled it in a very strong and instructive manner. The Ladies' quartette sansr, "Legends, 1' and Miss Emma Hicks followed with the class motto, "More Beyond," and done splendidly. At the close of Miss Hicks' recitation Miss Grace Young gave tbe class prophecy. This abounded in good hits and pleasant things but the "good fairy" forget to reveal anything about No. 7, herself. As Miss Young took her seat W. H. Cadwellarose and came to tbe front and aaid that the part that was left unrevealed he bad the good fortune to have the fairy reveal to him and he proceeded to give the prophecy concerning Miss Young which brought down the house. At tbe close of the essays the orchestra played a selection aad Prof. Sprout spoke a few fitting words to tbe class and then presented them with their diplomas which are very fine works of art and are genuine sheep1 skin. Miss Mabel Mann sang tbe class song, "Plus Ultra," Rey. 0 . B. Thurston pronounced the benediction and the evenings entertainment was closed. Each member of the class received the congratulations of their many friends and also some very fine presents and many beautiful and costly flowers. Altogether the evening passed off very pleasantly and will be an event long to be remembered by those who were present and especially by those who toek a prominent part. The visitors from a distance were numerous, Howell, Stockbridge, Fowlerville, Leslie, and all of tbe surrounding villages being well represented and aM. expressed themselves as being well satisfied with the exercises. As the class enters upon their life's work they receive the good wishes of all their friends for their success and the DISPATCH joins with them.

After supper those who wished went home.but the majority returned to tbe upper room where the time was spent in visiting, sinking etc., until after midnight when the crowd broke up and returned to their homes feeling better for having went to the banquet ot the class ot 92. Our School. As the school year closes again it brings the fact before us that we have one of the best schools in the county for educating and fittincr young people for the battle of life. The work under the present corps of teachers is thorough and those who pass examinations have to study hard and understand not only the general rules but the principle. Our school is getting tu be quite noted and draws many foreign scholars who speak very highly of the management and thoroughness of each department. It stands each member of the district in hand to see that the stand ing of our school is not lowered in the minds of outsiders as that would b« ruinous to our success. Goed pay se cures good teachers, good teachers make a good school, and a good school adds much to any village or community. All who heard our ladies quartette at tbe commencement and banquet exercises declare that we have as fine a quartette as there is in tbe state. We have thought so for some time. When Pinckney needs to get up an entertainment of any kind she does not have to go out of town for material. Commencement and School Items. School is out for the summer va cation. C. L. Sigler is home from the university for his vacation. Now the school is out the small boy attacks the sparrow in dead earnest. B" J.

Tbe orchestra then played a selection from tbe great anthor, "Mozart,'1 which was a very fit ending to the essay. On Friday evening of last week over 300 guests came by invitation to the school bouse, which had been turned into a> banqueting house and spent the evening very pleasantly and profitably. The first part of the evening was spent in the auditorium listening to sweet music rendered by the orchestra, Ladies' quartette and Miss Alma Howard, and the responses to toasts by many present. Norman Wilson, of the class of '90, acted as toast master and called upon the following and they responded to tbe boasts: The Press, F. L. Andrews; The Medical Profession, Dr. H. F. Sigler; Stepping Stones, Dr. U. VV. Kirkland; Our Sister Nation Across the River Rev. W. G. Stephens; Wanted, Successful Men, Rey. 0. B. Thurston; The Alumni, Miss Laura Wilson; Class of '93, Will Monks; Our Schools in the South, Miss Cora Young, of Knoxville, Tenn. Miss Franc Burch was called upon and gave a recitation which was encored as usual with her selections. As this was the close of the program all were invited below ^here the tables were spread with a fit** repast. The seventh and eighth grades acted as waiters and the crowd were soon da* vonring the splendid cakes, ice cream, strawberries, etc., that had been prepared and visiting at the same time Ad The Michigan university at Ann Arbor, graduates t38!» students this week in ths different departments. Clarence and Clyde Bennett, of Fowlerville, attended the commencement exercises at this place last week.

The following are the members of the class of '93 in this school: George Reason, Annie Reason, Josie Reason, Will Monks, Mary Padley, Roy Teeple, and Kittie Hoff. There will be a state teacher's institute held in Howell during August that will last two weeks. This will be a grand place for teachers to get hints on teaching and should be well attended. Dr. F. W. Reeve and wife attended the banquet given at Dexter last Saturday evening bv the graduating class there. Th« Dr. is a member of tbe alumni there. Of course he responded to a toast. A load of young people enjoyed themselves driving around onr streets and crying "ice cream" on Saturday afternoon last. The cream wat what was left over from the banquet and the young folks bad a good time getting rid ot it. We wish we could have secured tbeir picture. Church News.

THE FIRST DAY. The first day of the Democratic.' national convection atL'hicago was a short one. Just before time to call the vast crowd to order one of Chicago's characteristic thunder storms broke forth in all its fury. The hall was ailed with almost Egyptian darkness, through which sharp, quick flashes cf lightning occasionally shot, and the building: shook with several rounds of rattlinp thunder. Umbrellas were raised in all parts of the hall for protection from various aggressive plobules of water that sneaked in through crevices in the roof. After 10 raiuutes of uproar too western edge of the storm passed by and went muttering and growling out over the lake. The sun then revealed himself and as the yellow light streamed into the wigwam the crowd greeted it with a yelL At li:40 Chairman Calvin S. Brie*, of the national commiltee, dropped his gavei on the desk and the national Democratic convention of 189^ was declared in order for business. Rev. Dr. House, of Trinity Episcopal church of Cnicago, opened With prayer. The report of the committee on temporary organization was called for and was udopted. Hon. VV. C. Owen, of Kentucky, Vras selected &i temporary chairman, L. E. Rowley, of Michigan. was made an assistant secretary, and Win. E. Thompson, of Michigan, assistant reading clerk. Mrv Owens thanked the convention in a «plendid speech for the honor bestowed\k; on him. The speech was received with cheers. Each delegation was given one member on each of the credentials, resolutions, permanent organization and rales and order committees. The following resolution was unanimously adopted amid prolonged and enthusiastic cheers. R e s n l v u d .

He was received with great applause. The Senat >r, first buttoning up his coat and then u n b u t t o n i n g it as he •warmed up, began, nfier a few preliminary remarks, to appeal for harmonv. <'n this point he said: " I think I h a v e the right to speak to t h s assembly as one having1 experience, and I come urging you — I ne^tl not u r ^ e y o u to patriotism, because that i-> instinctive in the Democratic heart. I need not urge you to the adoption of every expedient to secure harmony in o u r ranks, because there lies before u s o n e of t h e most important political contests in which t h e Democratic party h a s been engaged for a quarter of a c e n t u r y . The great work of restoring constitutional liberty devolves upon t h e Democrati1 party, You must n o t l e t personal interests divide them. JThere should be no skulkers in t h e c a m p . T h e men presented t o you a r e all patriotic men. You cannot easily m a k e a mistake. You must pet a lirm, alnswerving Democrat and put the nag i n his hand." Continuing, Mr. Palmer said t h e ^Democratic party must have no juggling of words in its platform. Mr. Palmer said he wanted to see Illinois year a fire of patriotism. Blow trumpet and Illinois would rally t o the banner. fie expected Illinois t o e^ect its state ticket and its elector ,J ticket as well. 1 1 i'e chairman announced that the committee on credentials were ready (to report and Mr. Lamb, of Indiana. took the platform and in a clear, loud voice read ,th« report. There was no pbjection to it and i; was adopted. The chairman rapped for order and announced that the committee on perfnanentorganization wa# read, to rep o r t The report named W. L. Wilson, of West Virginia, for permanent chuirfnan and continued the other officers of the temporary organization. The announceinent of Mr. Wilson's name was met with loud applause. The report was adopted without dissent. Mr. "Wilson looked calmly over the convention during u minute's silence, and then began his speech. The keynote of it all was tarirt reform, and he was loudly cheered whenever lie touched on this t|iiestiou. When he concluded his speech the delegates rising to their feet waved their hats us they cheered again and a'.iain. The committee ou rules made the following report which was adopted: " W e c o m m e n d t l i a l t h o f o l l o w i n g u r u V r o f b u s i n e s s s h a l l b e u i m w u d i n t h i s c o n v e n - l i u u : " 1 .

' EVENING S E S S I O N . It was very hot when the eonvenfnn came to order. liev. Thomas (iteen, of ( ed.ir Kupids, a . , deivered prayer. i'lie first busiuess wits tlie report of the resolutions committee, (.'has. 11. .Io ics, of Missouri, iu behalf of the committee introduced ex-Secretary Yilas, who commenced at once to read the platform. When, in the first section, he rend the names of Jefferson, Madison ami Cleveland.there was a shout which almost lifted t h e canvas and the i'.o.uuii people leaped upon their chairs and danced a n d yelled. During the reading of the remainder of t h e platform their was much feeling expressed ou t h e different features. Tlie denunciation of measures like tlie force bill was loudly cheered. Applause aUo greeted t h e homestead plank and the portion of the silver plank denouncing t h e Sherman a c t The only features of t h e platform which seemed to call for divided sentiment were the tariff and silver planks which were apparently n o t sufficiently radical to satisfy the delegates with pronounced views. Col. Jones moved the adop'ion of t h e platform. Mr. Neal, of Ohio, baing recognized said: Mr. Chairman and gentlemen of the convention, as a representative from tho state of Ohio, upon the committee on resolutions I gave notice of my intention to present to this convention an amendment to the section of the platform relating to t h e tariff. [Applause.] I havo been unable conscientiously to agree with tlie majority of my fellow-members upon that section of this platform., 1 therefore pave notice to tho committee that I would move, in open convention, to strike out of that section of the platform pertaining to tho tariff all t h e words preceding the denunciation of tho Mi'lvlnley act and substitute thtrefor the following: We denounce the Republican, protection as a fraud —[cries and cheers | -the labor of the .ureat majority of the American people for tlie benefit of the few. [Cries of ••lieud It uj.raln."i We declare It to be a fundamental principle of the Pemorrat party that the federal Rnv.'rnment has no ciin->tlt ut ional p nver to impose and collect tariff du i les. except for the purpose of revenue only—[applause and cheers' — iind we demand t h n t t h e collection of such taxes >hiill bo iinilte.l to tho n 'Ce-ssiiles of the Ljoverntiieiit when IRmestly and economically HdminUiered. [I'heers mid applause, j Henry Watterson. of Kentucky, was then called to the platform and made a telling speech favoring the -substitute and was replied to by Mr. \ ilas who upheld the tariff planUs as first reported. When the vote was tinished t h e result was announced as follows: Yeas. ."itil; navs. .'U"J. Tne result was received with tumul nous applause, Tlie confusion" was suddenly"quTe'FeYT when Mr. Patterson, of Colorado, took the platform, lie moved to amend t h e silver plank b}' inserting t h e word ••free," th us making i1 read, " t h r o u g h the free coir.a^e of gold and silver." instead of " t h r o u g h the coin- ;iLre of both gold and silver." The ami'ti imeut w.is lost, thus defeating the i'vee silver men's hope-* ...The platform was then adopted. Tin* B a l l o t i n g Me<_;ins, Chairman Wilson then announced that the next business was the nomination of candidates tor pre.Mdeut and the call proceeded. Arkansas yielded to New Jersey afi,d e>c-<iov. Leon Abbett, of the Litter state, came forward to the platform. He proceeded without receiving more than mild applause until he readied that portion of his address where he said: "It'th'-ro was any doubt existing" in my mind of the result of this national contest I would not urfre on behalf of my state the views of its Democracy in favor of drover Cleveland." The mention of tlie name of tlie sage of Huz/.urd->' Hay was a signal for a thunder of cheers. Men and women who thronged the great galleries waved fan-, umbrellas and l(anners. Many of the state delegates arose and standing on their chairs, joined in the great volume of enthusiasm which seemed to possess the multitude. All over the hall, but principally among the a u d e n . e . men and women vrere wild with excitement. After about eight minutes of pandemonium, the chair thought it was about time to take a hand in the disturbance, but nobody paid any attention to him, and they only ceased when tired out. A counter demonstration for Hill was begun by Dr. Mary Walker jumping upon a chair, waving her handkerchief and shouting for Hill. The New York delegation which had before remained s i l e ^ and glum suddenly became awake and under the inspiration of Hill's name, commenced to yell like m-td. They r<fje in their seats and waved everything they could lay their hands on. At the end of 15 minutes Chairman Wilson tried to call order, but only added to the din. While the demonstration was a t its height one of the Chicago thunder storms passed over the wigwam, with its deep tone emphasi/.ing the demonstration for New York's setiator. Th« delegates caught the idea aud outthundered the thunder itself with their howls and yells. The thunder storm became 80 heavy t h a t a n intermission was necessary, but finally the seuret.iry proceeded with t h e c ill of states Mr. DeWitt, of New York, came to t h e secretary s platform and after t h e st irm placed tlie name of David K Hill before t h e convention in a ringing speech which was enthusiastically eheer«cl. Hon. .). H. Fellows, of New York, seconded t h e nomination. Illinois ;uid Indiana seconded tlie name of Cleveland. When Iowa was reached Mr. F. ])Lincoinbe took t h e platform and n nued Horace Holes, T h e Iowa di'leguti in took their turn a t cheering and were aided by several other states, but the demoustrai iuu was merely a sideshow compared with t h e o t h e r s . Kansas seconded Clevelund and Kentucky followed in line, although Wattcrsoti seconded Uoies. T h e remainder of the balloting progressed rapidly at'ii quiet ly, Michigan was :.'M solid for Cleveland. T h e ballut resulted: Cleveland, <)]0-;i: Hill, 114; Boies, 'J">; liorman, lifl .; Stevenson, by North Carolina, 'tiJ,;: remainder of u total of S'.tT ;..., scattering. The eonveutiou then adjourned for the duy. THE PLATFORM. Sec. 1. The leprehenTntives of t h e Democrat ic piM-ty of tin- Cniti'd States, iu national convention Hs^enil led, do realtirm their alleifituicu to the principles of the purty HS foruiulaied by Jetl«TSUU mid exi'iuplintul hy t h e km;; and illuMrinutt line ot his successors in Democratic leadership from Mitiliou to Cleveland; we believe tho .public welfare demands that the*' principle- be Hpplied to the Federal (.ioverimiL'ut through t h e ivcce^siou to power of the Jiarty tiuU advocates them: uml we l declare y that the need of a return to to these fundamental priuHiiles of a tret- popu lar k'overmneut, based on home rule and individual liberty, waa never more urgent than now, when the tendency to centralize all power at the federal c.pital has become a menace to the reserved riguts of the states that strikes at tho very roots of our government under the Constitution as framed by the fathers uf the republic. Sec. '£, We wani the people of our common country, jealous for the preservation of their tree institutions, that the policy of federal control of elections to which the Republican party has committed itself is fraught with tiie gravest dancers, scarcely less momentous than would result from & revolution practically e»- HbUshimj monarchy on the ruins of the republic. It strikes at the north as well as the south, and injures the colored citi/.en even more than the white; it means a hurde of deputy marshals at every polling place armed with federal power, returning boards appointed and controlled by federal authority, the outrage of the electoral rights of the people in the several states, tue subjugation ot the colored people to tlie control of the party in power, and the reviving of race antagonisms uow bapplly abated, of tho utmost peril to the safety and happiness of all; a measure deliberately and justly described by a leading Republican senator as ''the most infamous bill tbat ever crossed the threshold of the Senate." Such a policy, if sanctioned by law. would mean the dominance of a self-perpetuitting oligarchy of omceholders, and the party tirst intrusted with its machinery could be dislodged from power only by an appeal to the reserved right of the people to reHiht oppression, which ia inherent in all self-governing communities. Two years ago thia revolutionary policy wasemphatically condemned by the people at the polls; but in contempt of that venliet the KepuUican party has defiantly declared in its latest authoritative utterance that its success in the coming elections will mean the enactment of the force bill and the usurpation of despotic control over elections in all the states. Believing that the preservation of Republican government in the United States is dependent upon the defeat of this policy of legalized force and fraud, we invite tlie support of ail citizens who desire to sue the Constitution maintained in all its integrity with the laws pursuant thereto, which have uiven our country a hundred years of unexampled prosperity; and wo pledge the Democratic party, it: it be intrusted with power, not only to the defeat of the force bill, but also to relentless opposition to the Kepuhlicun rJoliey of profligate expenditure, which, in the short space of two years, has t>(juaudered an enormous surplus and emptied an overflowing treasury, after piling new burden's of taxation upon the already overtaxed labor of the country. Sec. 3. We reiterate the oft-repeated doctrines of tlie Democratic party that tho necessity of ilie government is tho only just itication for taxation, and whenever a tax is unnecessary it is unjustifiable; that when custom house taxation is levied upon articles of a n y kimr pro rrncrri rrrthis country ,~ttie- Tiiffereiico between the cost of jabpr iiere and labor abroad, when such a difference exists, fully measure* any possible benefits to labor,und the enormous additional impositions of tho existing tarilV fall with (rushing force upon our tarnuTsand workiuKinen and for" tlie mere advantnge of the lew whom it enriches, exact from labor a grossly uujr.st share of the expense of tlie government and we demand BUCII a revision uf the tariff iuwa us will remove their iniquitous inequalities, lighten their oppressions and put them on a constitutional arid equitable basis. Hut in making reduction in taxes it is not proposed to injure any donu.'stic industries, but rather to promote their healthy growth."-From tiie fosmdauon, of ihis government taxes coliecteil at thn cu — torn house have b.en the chief source of federal revenue. Such they must continue to bo. Moreover, many industries have come to r d y upon legi-lation for successful continuance, so that any change of law must be at every stop regardful of the labor and capital thus involved. The process of reform must be subject in the execution of this plain dictate of justice. We denounce the McKinlcv tariff law enacted by the Fifty-first Congress as the cultnin itine atrocity of class legislation; we indorse the efforts made by the Democrats of tiie present Congress to modify its most oppressive features in the direction of free, raw materials and cheaper manufactured goods that enter into general consumption, and *ve promise its repeal as one of the beneficent results that will follow the action of the people in intrusting power to the Democratic party. Since tlie McKinley tnrifT went into operation there have been ten reductions of the wages of laboring men to one increase. We deny that there lias been any increase of prosperity to the country since that tariff went into operation, and we point to the dullness and distress, the wage reductions and strikes in the iron trade as tne. best possible evidence that no such prosperity baa resulted from the M1? Kin ley act. We call the attention of thoughtful Americans to tho fact that after thirty' years of re,- strictive taxes against the importation of foreign wealth, in exchange for our agricultural surplus, the homes and farms of tne country havo become burtlened with a real estate mortgage debt of over two thousand five hundred million dollars, exclusive of all other forms of.ii debtednoas; that in one of the chief agricultural states of the west there appears a real estate mortgage debt averaging Sltio per capita of the total population; and that similar conditions and tendencies are shown to exist in the other agricultural exporting states. We denounce a policy which fosters no industry so much as it does that of the slier iff. Sec. 4. Trade interchange on the basis of reciprocal Advantages to ttie countries participating Is H time honored doctrine nf the Democratic; f.iith, but we rte.noiinco the sham reciprocity which Juggles with the people's de«lr« for enlarged foreign markets and freer P/Xchangt's by pretending to establish closer trade relations for a country whose articles of export are almost exelusiuely Agricultural products with other countries that are. also agricultural, while, erecting a custom house barrier of prohibitive* tariff taxes against the richest countries of the world that Htand re.ady to take our entire surplus of products and to exchange therefor commodities which are necessaries and comforts of life among our own people. Sec. 5. Wo recognize In the trusts and combinations, which are designed to enable canital to secure more than its Just share of the Joint product of capital and labor, a natural consej n f the prohibitive taxes which prevent the free cMiupe ition which id the life of honest trade, but we believe their worst evils uan be abated Oy law, aud we d e m a u d t h e rigid enforcement of the laws made t o prevent a u d control them, together with Buch further legislation iu restraint of their abuses ao experience, may show to be necessary. Sec. ti. The Kepublican party, while professing a policy of resorving tlie public laud for small holdings by actual settlers, hits given away 1 he people's heritage till no w a few railroad and non-iesideut aliens, individual a n d corporate, posset* a larger area tliau t h a t of ail our farms but ween the two ueau. The last DemotTttUc administration reversed t u e Improvident and uuwi.se policy of t h e liepublican p u n y lunching the public domain, and reclaimed li'iim corporations and syndicates, alien and domestic, and restored to the peopit nearly UXUWO.ilUO acres of Valuable land to be saci'udly hela as home-steads for o u r citizens, and we pledge ourselves tu continue, this policy until every acre uf laud so unlawfully hold bhall be reclaimed and restored t o the people, Sec. 7. WV denounce the Hi-])ublican legislation known as the. Sherman net of 181K) as B cowardly makeshift, fraught with possibilities of danger m l he future which should make ah of its supporters, as well as i s ant hor, anxiom for its speedy repeal. We hold t o Iht) use ol both gold and silver as the s t a n d a r d money ol the country, and to t h e coinage of both gold a i d silver without, discriminat ing agaiuM either metal or ehargn for mintage, but iht dollar unit of coinage of both uieluls must bt of eiiuai intrinsic ami exehaiiguable value oi he adjusted through international agreement or by such Hifeguiirda of legislation as bhall insure the maintenance of tlie parity of the two mi-tuls and Ihu equal power of every dollar a t all times iu t h e m a r k e t s a n d in the payment of debts; aud wo demand t h a t all uaper currency shall be kent at pur with and redeemable iu such coin. We insist upon this policy as especially necessary fur t h e protection of farmers a u d laboring clatses, t h e Hfst and most defenseless victims ot unstable mouey and a lluetimtiiig currency. Sec. ,S. We recommend that 1 lie prohibitory 10 per eeut tax on state bank issues be repealed. Sec. 9. Public otnee is a public trust. We reaftlrm the declaration of tlie Democratic national convention of l>7ti lor the rul'urm of tho civil service and we call for t h e honest enactuientof all laws relating to t h e same. T h e nomination of a 1'iesideut, a s in t h e recent Republican convention, by delegates composed largely of his appointees, holding oftlce a t bis pleasure, is a scandalous satire upon free popular institutions a n d a startling illustration of the methods by which a President may gratify bis ambition. \ \ e denounce a policy under which federal oftlce-holdera usurp control of party conventions in t h e states, a n d we pledge t h e Democratic party to t h e reform of those mid all o t h e r abuses which threaten individual liberty. Sec. 10. The Democratic party is the only party that has ever given the country a foreign policy consistent and vigorous.compelling respect abroad and inspiring confidence at home. While avoiding entanglTnfcf alliances it has aimed to cultivate friendly relations with other nations and especially with our neighbors on the American continent whose destiny is closely linked with our own, and we view with alarm the tendency to a policy of irritation and bluster which is liable at any time to confront us with the alternative of bumilatioa or war. We favor the maintenance of a navy strong enough for all purposes of uational defense and to maintain the honor and diguity of the couutry abroad. Sec. 11. This country baa always been the refuge of the oppressed from every land-exiles for conscience sake—and in the spirit of the founders of our government we condemn the oppression practiced by the Russian Government upon its Lutheran and Jewish subjects and we call upon our uational government, in the interest or justice and humanity, by all just and proper meins, to use its best and promptest effort for bringing about a cessation of these cruel persecutions in the dominions of the L'zar, and to secure to the oppressed equal rights. We tender our profound aud earnest sympathy to those lovers of freedom who are struggling for home rule and the great cause of local self government in Ireland. Sec. 12. We heartily approve all legitimate efforts to prevent the United States from being used as the dumping ground for the known criminals and professional paupers of Europe and we demand the rigid enforcement of the laws against Chinese immigration and the importation of foreign workmen under contract to degrade American labor and lessen its wagt'B, but we condemn and denounce any and all attempts to restrict the immigration of the industrious and worthy of foreign lands. Sec. 13. This convention hereby renews the expression of appreciation of the patriotism of the soldiers and sailors of tho union iu tho war for its preservation, and wo favor just and liberal pensions fur all disabled soldierp, their widows and dependents; but we demand tbat the work of the pension office shall bo done industriously, impartially and honestly. We feuouncu tho present administration of that oflicu as incompetent, corrupt, disgraceful and dishonorable. Sec:. 14. 'I he Federal Government nhould care for ami improve the Mississippi Kiver and other great wnterwins of the republic so us to secure for tho interior stales easy and ctieap TraTislHmaTioTi to The ft (To \v7VterrNVhnTi any waterway of the republic is of sufficient importance to demand the aid of tne government- -that such aid should be extended on a definite plan of continuous work until permanent improvement is secured. Sec. 15. For purposes of national defense and tho promotion of commerce between tho. states we recognize t he early construction of the NincarugunCaual and its protection against foreign control as of great importance to tho United Stales. Sec. Iti. Recognizing tho World's Columbian Exposition UR a national undertaking of vast importance, in which the general government has invited the co-operation of all the powers of the. world, and appreciating the acceptance by many of such powers of tlie invitation so extended and the broad and liberal efforts being made by tlvMii to contribute to tho grandeur of the undertaking, we are of opinion that Congress should make such necessary financial provision as shall bo requisite to thu maintenance of tlie nationalhonorand public faith. Sec. 17. Popular education being tho only safe basis of popular suffrage, wo recommend to the several stales .most liberal appropriations for the public schools. Free coVnmon schools are tho nursery i.f good government, and they havo always received tne fostering care of the Democratic party, which favors every meuos of increasing intelligence. Freedom of education, being an essential of civil and religious liberty, as well as a necessity for the development of intelligence, must not be interfered with under any preiext whatever. Wo are opposed to state interference with parental rights and rights of conscience in the education of children, as an infringement of the fundamental Democratic doctrine that the largest individual liberty consistent with tho rights of others Insures the highest typo of American citizenship and the best government. Sec. 18. We approve- the action of the present House of Representatives in passing bills for the admission into the union as states of the Territories of New Mexico and Arizona, and wo favor the early nr'miBslon of all the territories having tho necessary population and resources to entitle them to statehood, aud while they remain territories, we hold that the officials appointed to administer the government of any territory, together with the Districts of Columbia and Alaska, should be. boua fide residents of the territory or district in which their duties a r e to be performed. The Democratic party believes in home rule and the control of their own affairs by the people of the vicinage. Sec. 19. We favor the legislation by Congress, and state Legislatures, to protect the lives and limbs of railway employes and those of other hazardous transportation companies and denounce the inactivity of tho Republican pirty and particularly ttie Republican Senate for cansing t'ie defeat of mensures beneficial and protective to this class of wage workers. Sec. 2u. We are in favor of t h e enactment bv the stntes c>f laws for abolishing the notorious sweating system, for abolishing convict labor and for prohibiting the employment iu factories of children under 15 years of agp. Sec. 21. Wo are opposed to all sumptuary laws as nn interference with t h e individual rights of the citizen. Sec. 22. I'pon this Rtatrment of principles find policies the Democratic, party a.sks the intelligent Judgment of the American people. It asks a change of administration and a cnango of party, In order tbat there may bo a change of system and a change of methods, thus munring the maintenance unlrmwired of institutions under which the republic ha* grown great and powerful. THROUGH A CULVERT. A C W. * M. Trt*tn Meets Wltii an ddeut >e»r Nile*.—Three Injured. Train No. 23 guing «mth on the C. W. & M. railroad, went through a culvert near Herrien Ceutre.

Seven others, two of whom are residents cf this place, received blight wounds about the head. The cause of the accident was the fact tnat the culvert had been weakened in making repair.* Tiie low rate of speed was ail that .saved tlie passengers from iroiny over an embankment.

Tlie annual picnic and summer union of tlie Old Settlers' ation was held at (Jrand Rapids and the attendance was large despite threatening weather. Hon. E. (i. 1). Holden delivered the address of the day. This is tlie fifty-ninth anniversary of the arrival of the Joel tJuild and family, the first white settlers and among those in attendance at the picnic were: Harriet Guild Burton, the pioneer's oldest daughter who was just IS years old the day bhe landed from the canoe, in which with the family she came down the river from Ionia. She was the lirst bride in the early settlement and a still hearty and hale at tho age of 77 years. lJernUe Deehel Wantu a Guardian. A petition haa been filed in the probate court of Wayne couaty asking* thai a guardian be appointed lor Bernicc E. Jiechel, the girl who cut such a figure in the Prince Michael case. The petition states that there ia pood reason for believing* that the parents are under the influence of I'rjnce Michael, and that they sent their daughter to the prince s houst, •well knowing that she was to be used for immoral purposes. It is claimed, therefore, that they are not competent too look after the child. JJernice hai nominated J. L. Hudson as her guardian, and he has agreed to act in that capacity. The hearing on the petition will take place June 'J^ at "J o'clock. (huroli Trouble at Waeouata.

The sonnets from the Portuguese were written by Hi abeth Barrett to y.v. Browning before her marriage, writes Anne Thackeray Ritchie in Harper's Magazine, although she never even showed them to him till some years after they were man and wife. They were sonnets such as no Portuguese ever wrote before, or ever wih write again. There is a quality in them which is beyond words, that echo which belongs to the highest human expression of feeling.

The bill provides that the exclusion act, which is at present a law, shall remain in force for ten years, that any Chines.e person arrested under this law must establish his rii^ht to remain here by affirmative proof; that if he does not he shall be imprisoned at hard The NEW WAY There is an old saying that there is "nothing new under the bun.1' We want to tell you that there is something new, and it's very new, too. It is the new way to the Summer Resorts, Petoskey, Bay View add Charlevoix, and one that will prove to be as popular a means of reaching them as the places are popular in themselves, From all parts of the country come every year—the number increasing as the resorts become better known—a throng of tourists, some bent on pleasure ouly, and jjointf trom one resort y ji to another, enjoying to the utmost the pleasures afforded by each. Others #o to some favored place, spending the hot months in quiet rest and re^ainin^ the health and strength impaired hy too close attention to business and the cares of every day life.

Extensive preparations for the erection of such a telephone were made not long since. A large number of poles were placed around a small mountain c,f iron ore. and a circuit of the most perfect and sensafive copper wire was arranged upon them. The mountain was to be the magnet, while the wires were to conduct the sound through a receiver to the ear. About the time this much was done, indications of disturbances on the sun appeared, and simultaneously a violent hurricane swept over the part of the country where the work was in progress and threw down the poles and the wires. The ground is not in proper condition to have the poles erected again just now; but this will be done as soon as practicable, and they will be secured so firmly that no ordinary blizzard can overthrow them.

One tiling is very certain, both men were nominated against the wishes of the men who have in the past arrogated to themselves the privilege of controlling the nominations for President in their respective parties, and both of them are free of obligations to the political bosses. Another thing also is certain, and for it all decent people should be thankful. The campaign will be free from the personal abuse, which all too often forms the greater part of the arguments used on both sides in a National campaign. There is little doubt that these two men clearly represent everything which the majority of their respective parties stand for; as ex- Governor Jackson, of Maryland, at present residing in Washington, puts it; "both men have been tried and the people know just where they stand; both men hold the same views on the money question; Harrison would retain the present tariff', Cleveland would largely reduce it and increase the free list, Harrison favors the enactment of a federal election law, Cleveland opposes it." The fact that Mr. Cleveland holds the same views on the money question as Mr. Harrison does is what made the Alliance and people's party men want him nominated. It will, they say, bring out in stiong contrast the directly opposite view of Hint subject which will be set forth by the Omaha convention, ;m<l they count on it to get thousands of votes for the new party. Not even the important poli'ical events of Democratic eonventioTr week could entirely overshadow the communication sent to the Senate by President Harrison concerning the commercial relations °* t n e United States with Canada, which is constantly growing, that a full Presidential ticket will be put in the field by the silver men of the west and south and that it will be made up from the Senate, one being a republican and the other a democrat. Senators Stewart, Wolcott and Teller an; the republicans mentioned in this connection, and Senator Morgan, of Alabama, is the democrat. I t is rumored here that a movement is on foot to j^et the people's party?, convention, which meets at Omaha, July 4, to make its tickets from a list of silver Senators, including those mentioned above and .several others. (Jen. Horace Porter, of New York, has declined the chairmanship of the republican National committee, which was tendered him by President Harrison, who as the nominee of his party is entitled to the privilege of naming the head of the committee which shall manage his campaign, and suggested Cham)cey Depew for the place. It is now said that Mr. Depew never had any idea of accepting the vacant cabinet portfolio, although it was offered to him, and indeed pressed upon him, but it is just as well to make some allowances for such statements, as it is certain that they do not originate with President Harrison or with Mr. Depew, and only those two know all about it.

Mr. Harrison frankly says that there is no probability of commercial reciprocity between the two countries and goes into particulars as to reasons, the principal of which is that Canada is not- willing to put any of the manufactures of the United States on the free list; she wishes, to send her agricultural products to the United States free of duty and at the same time to shut out American manufacturies, in order that English goods may retain theii supremecy in her market.-.

THE real trouble in dispensing charity is not to be found in the Want of tact depicted and often found in peo. pie charitably inclined, nor in the impossibility of a perfect understanding of the needs to be met, although these are'great barriers, too. But when we come to the actual fact that the benefactor is offering support to the beneficiary, we have the root of the trouble. The price of manhood is paid often enough, but what a price it is to give for the means of life. There is no disease so insidious as pauperism, and philanthropy is handicapped at tho ttart in tho struggle atrainst it. IT is time that tho United States flood before the world of commoreo "lith something1 liKe its rightful sharo • X tho carrying trado. When wo conjider that American capital has paid ! millions every year into the coffers of foreign steamship lines, when tho money might quite as well have gono to the enrichment of our own resources, tho wondor is that at least a small opening has not been ; givon before, Tho prospect of seeing_j merchant ship* sailing into and out of our ports under tho stars and stripes, Is moot fluttering to national priclo, vrhich has sull'ered. not i# little from the restrictions of tho pa^t. FUNNY world we live in. A man who has access to six hea^P"of horsos, they standing idle in a stablo, walked two miles out in tho country on a little matte? of business a day or two ago, while mother man who had no horses and fery lit.tlo money hired a Warn to go the same distance. This was an actual occurrence, and shows tho perversity of human. nature. He who has the facilities for driving prefers to walk, whiio ho who Could much better afford to walk and has no team, goa; and hires one. Men are crazy to own a team, and it «oon becomes a bore to give tho horse necessary exercise, It has always been thus, and we presume always will be. THERE is an insolence that is even laore intolerable than the Chadband and Pardiggle philanthropy, for it does not prttead to any aim but that Ol diver&ton, and it contents itself with looking on at something new strange, apparently unconscious the soraothing is human, with feasibilities, dulled though they be. Yet there is, even in much, porhap9 In most* well-meant philanthropy, an Invasion of tho rights of others that tends to undo the very good that benevolence accomplishes. Does tho man or woman livo who can receive, 1A poverty, of tho about! unco of another, and not loso something of the blessedness of independence';* To receive and to remain unbeliillcd by it !• possible to few. It is ihia which makes the wide jfulf between tho rich and poor so iai(>;is9ab:o, and which ultimately throws down the most carefully planru d effort* iu briujjio? the two toucher on a cocmca g ON THE OCEAN BLUE. TALMACE SA1L1NGTOWARD THE MOTHERLAND. THERE are some moa who ttand oa the dobateablo ground between talent* and genius, without belonging to either; they have a strong love for all that is beautiful and great, without the power of producing them; instead of all the radii of thoir mind tending, as in men of genius, to a single point* they bland in the ceniar and eenii forth rays in every direction, but these antagonistic forou3 destroy each other. To GET through one thing and to begin another seems to be the whole ef life to some people. The element of well doing is forgotten; thoro is no time allotted for that. The mind, concentrated on getting on, or getting through tho business on hand, has no opportunity for consideration, reflection, comparison, judgment—no time for proving methods or testing results. Yet, without all this, how poor a thing is work of any kind! CULTIVATED people are apt i aopreciate the value of great shows. The uulgar glory in them, and there is a tendency to draw from them that Inference that it is mere idling to watch them. So it is idling for idlers but not for intelligent observers. I Where there is a spectacle there Is a crowd, and people of delicate habits dislike crowds. But crowds are erood to study, particularly representative crowds of intelligent men under tho Stress of strong emotion. He Dictate! a Sermon for Use la the Press—"The Huur of My Departure lltkn Come"—Echoes from the L,H'« of HU l'aul. dungeon was no means of through an BROOKLYN, N. Y., Juno 18. 1802.— Rev. Dr. falmiij-'o i« now on Hie Atlantic, .having sailed I from New York 011 iho 15lh inst. for Liverpool, j for a jjrcat'bing tour in England, Scotlund, j Ireland, and Sweden, liuforu visiting Sweden, Dr. TiUma^B will go to Hussin, there to witness the reception und disposition of the cur^ro • »f breadstufTs on board tho Christian Herald relief Bleamship lx'o, which sailed lust week • for St. Petersburg. Previous to his departure, I he dictated to his stenographer the following j farewell sermon, to be read by the va«t and widely scattered audiences whom it is his weekly privilege to address through the medium of the newspaper press. He took hia text from II Timothy 4:6: "The time of my depart ure is at hand." Departure! That is a word used only twice in all the bible. But it is a word often used in the court-room and means the desertion of one course of pleading for another, It is used in navigation to describe the distance betweeD two meridians passing through the extremities of a course. It is a •word I have recently heard applied to my departure from America to Europe for a preaching tour to last until September. In a smaller and less significant sense than that implied in the text I can say: "The time of my departure is at hand." Through the printing1 press I address this sermon to my readers all the world over, and when they read it I will be mid-ocean, and unless something new happens in :ny marine experiences I will be in no condition to preach. But how unimportant the word departure, when applied to exchange of continents as when applied to exchange of worlds as when Panl wrote, "The time of my departure is at hand." Now, departure implies a startingpince and a place of destination. When 1 anl left this world, what was the stiirting-poiui? It was a scene of great physical distress. It was the Tullianum, the lower dungeon of the Maraertiue prison, Rome, Italy. The top bad enough, it having ingress or egress but opening in the top. Through that the prisoner was lowered, and through that came all the food and air and light received. It was a terrible place, that upper dungeen; btit the Tullianum was the lower dungeon, and that was still more wretched, the only li^ht and the only air coming through the roof, and that roof the floor of the upper dungeon. That was Paul's last earthly residence. 1 WHB in that lower dungeon in November, 1889. Itismade of volcanic stone. I measured it, and from wall t» wall it was fifteen feet. The highest of the n of was seven feet from the. Iloor, and the lowest of the roof five feet seven inches. The opening in the roof through which i'aulwas let down was three feet wide. The dungeon has a seat of rock two and a half feet high, and a shelf of rock four feet high. It was there that I'aul spent his last days on earth, and it is there that I see him now, in the fearful dungeon, "shivering1, "blue with the cold, waiting for that old overcoat which he had sent for up to Troas, ami which they had not yet sent clown, notwithstanding he had written for it. If some skillful surgeon should po into that dungeon where Paul is incarcerated, we might find out what are the prospects of Paul's living through the rough imprisonment. In the first place lie is an old man, only two years short of seventy. At that very time when lie most needs the warmth and the sunlight and the fresh air, he is shutout from the sun. What are those scars on his ankles'? Why, £hose were gotten when he was fast, his feet in the stocks. Every time he turned, tha flesh on his ankles started. What are those scars on his back? You know he was whipped five times, each time petting thirty-nine strokes—one hundred and ninety-five bruises on the back (count them!) made by the Jews with rods of elm-wood, each one of the one hundred and ninety-five strokes bringing the blood. Look at Paul's face and look at his arms. Where did he get those bruises? I think it was when he was struggling ashore amidst the shivered timbers of the shipwreck. I see a gash in Paul's side. Wrhere did he get that? I think he got that in the tussle with highwaymen, for he had been in peril of robbers, and he had money of his own. He was a mechanic as well as an apostle, and I think the tents he made were as good as his sermons. There is a wanness about Paul's looks. What makes that? I think a part of that came from the faot that he was for twenty-four hours on a plank in the Mediterranean Sea, suffering terribly, before he was rescued; for he says positively, "I was a night and a day in the deep." Oh, worn-out, emaciated old man', sxirely you must be melancholy: no constitution could endure this and be cheerful. But I press my w&y through the prison until I come up close to where he is, and by the faint light that streams through the opening I see on his face a supernatural joy, and I bow before him, and 1 say, "Aged man. how car; you keep cheerful amiost all this gloom?" Bit toJce startles the darkness of the place as he cries out, "I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand." Hark! what ia that bhuttling of feet in the upper dungeon? Why, Paul has an. invitation to a "banquet, nud he is going to dine today with the King. Those shuttling feet are the feet of the executioners. They come, and they cry down through the hole of tho dungeon, "Hurry up, old man. Come now; get yourseli ready." Why, Paul was ready, lie had nothing to pack up. He had no baggage to take, lie had been ready a good while. I see him rising up, and straightening out iili stiffened limbs, and pushing back hia white huir from his creviced forehead, and see him looking up through the hole in the roof of the dungeon into the face of his executioners, and hear him say, "I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand." Then they lift him out of the dungeon, and they start with him to the place of execution. They aay, "Hurry along,old man, or you will feel the weight of our spear. Hurry along." "How far is it," says Paul, "we have to travel?" "Three miles." Three miles is a good wsiy for an old man to travel after lie has been whipped and crippled with maltreatment. But they soon get to the place of execution—Acquie Salria —and he is fastened to the pillar or martyrdom. It does not take any strength to tia him fast. He makes no resistance. O Paul! why not now strike for your life? You have a great many" friends here. With that withered hand just launch the thunderbolt of the people upon those infamous soldiers. No! Paul was not going to interfere with his own coronation. He was too glad to go. 1 see him looking up in the face of his executioner, and, as the grim official draws the sword, Paul calmly says, "I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand." But I put ray hand over my eyes. I want not to see that last struggle. Qne sharp, keen stroke, and Paul does go to the banquet, and Paul does dine with the King. What a transition it was! From the malaria of Rome to the finest climate in all the universe—the zone of eternal beauty and health. His ashes were put in the catacombs of Rome, but in one moment the air of heaven bathed from his soul the last ache. From shipwreck, from dungeon, from the biting pain of the elm-wood rods, from the sharp sword of the headsman, he goes into the most brilliant assemblage of heaven, a king among kings, multitudes of the sainthood rushing out and stretching forth hands of welcome; fot I do really think that as on the right hand of (Jod is Christ, so on the righi hand' of Christ u Paul, the second great in heaven. He ehanged-Kings likewise. Befc r« the hour o< death, and up to the I11M moment, he was under Nero,the thicknecked, the cruel-eyed, the filthy-lipped; tho sculptured features of that man bringing down to us to this very day the horrible possibilities of hia nature —seated as he was adinidst pictured marbles of Kgypt, under a rool adorned vith mother-of-pearl, in s dining-room which by machinery was kept whirling day and night with mosi bewitching magnificence; his horsei standing in stalls of solid gold,"and tin grounds around his palace lighted ai night by its victims, who had beet bedaubed with tar and pitch and then set on fire to illumine the darkness. That was Paul's king. But the next moment he goes into the realm oi him whose reign is love, and whose courts are paved with love, and whos« throne is tet on pillars of love, anc whose sceptre is adorned with Jewell of love, and whose palace is lighted with love, and whose lifetime it us eternity of love. When Paul was leaving so much on this side the pillar oj martyrdom to gain so much on the other side, do you wonder at the cheer* ful valedictory of the text, "The tini« of my departure is at hand?" What he endured, oh, who can tell, To save our souls from death and hell! When there was between Paul and that magnificent Personage only thinness of the snarp edjje of Bword of the executioner, do wonder that he wanted to go? 0, Lord Jesus, let one wave ef that glory roll over us! Hark! I hear the wedding- bells of heaven ring-ingf now. Ttu marriage of the Lamb has come, and the bride hath made herself ready. And now for a little whil« good-bye! I have no morbid feelings about the future. But if anything should happen that we nevei meet again in this world let us meel where there are no partings. Oui friendships have been delightful on earth, but they will be more delijfhfc ful in heaven. And now I commend you to God and the word of his grac* which is able to build us up, and giv« us an inheritance among" all them thai are sanctified.

They were all smulL The father and mother were out of humor, and tho children wore ushered into seats without ceremony. It was evident that all had run to catuh the train. They wero just {jolting1 settled nicely, and the conductor; on the outside, was raising his hand for tho engineer to po ahead, when the man turned angrily to his wife, and said: "(Jive me those checks!1' "What chocks?" asked tho wifo. "What cliocks, you mouse!" "Yes, what checks, you idiot!" '•Why the trunk chocks, tlioru'a the i check a. Where are they?" and his eyes Hashed lire. "I ain't got any trunk checks, you parrot!" "You ain't got any eh clcs! Who has got them?" >nd lie springing from his seat rushed wildly toward the door. The woman and tho throe' omaller children followed at his heels, the latter crying in chorus. The train was now beginning to move out but tho husband bounded boldly from tho platform. "There is the man I gave them to!" yelled the woman; "that man over there!" and she pointed to a sweeper with a railroad cap on who was just entering a train on the opposite side. 1 The husband made a wild lunge for the man and seized him by the throat The sweeper, thinking he had a crank to deal with, grappled him with a deadly embrace and tried to throw him down. Then the woman shouted: "No, that ain't the man that has the checks, but looks the world and all like him! Come on, come on!" and she waved frantically at her husband. '•Go on, go on!" returned the hugband, running with all his might to catch the last ear. '•Coma on, come on! Run, run, run!1' were the parting words from his wife. But it was no use, the train was running too fast and he dwindled into a pigmy in the distance. When the woman returned to the car she Bpanked the triplets for crying and threatened to ••dress down" the twins if they looked out of the window before they reached Port Jar vis. $'. J.

Five YouDg People Drowned at Flushing as a Result of the Overturning of a How Boat—Several Important Conventions at Detroit. Michigan Bar Association* About 300 of the leading lawyers ol the state met in the splendid new room of the U. 8. circuit court in the new poatoffice at Detroit, the occasion being the ninth annual convention of the Michigan State Uar association. The annual address of President Michael Brennan was followed by a paper read by Wm. H. Wells on the subject "In Cuban Affairs the United States Has Adhered to Its Traditional Policy/' It was highly interesting, showing deep research, and was enthusiastically applauded. This was enough business for one sitting, so they adjourned for the day and took their ladies on a trolley excursion to Grosse Pointe. In the evening a magnificent banquet was greatly enjoyed at the Hotel Cadillac, with a number of suitable toasts, that by Judge Michael Brown, of Big Baplds, "The President of the United States," particularly pleasing the lawyers. At the second day's session a little more business was transacted, committees and officers reported, among Other things, that the membership had increased to 040. Officers were elected as follows: President, Thos. E. Barkworth, Jackson; vice-president, Bradley M. Thompson, Ann Arbor; secretary, Wm. S. Cobb, Jackson; treasurer, Charles B. Townsend, Jackson. The Only change in the board of directors was the substitution of A. 0. Baldwin, of Ppntiac, for John J. Carton, of Flint. The meeting ended with an excursion on the river. Wirt Young People Drowned. A terrible accident, involving the loss of five lives, occurred at Flushing, when a boat capsized containing four young people. All were drowned and a spectator, who endeavored to help them, also lost his life. The occupants were Chauncey A. Cook, aged 18, the Misses Luella and Odalina Loop, aged respectively 14 and 16, and Mildred Packard, aged 2. a niece of the two yOung ladies. The party had been out for some time, when through some carelessness in the handling of the boat it was capsized. All went into the water, and as none of them could swim they struggled helplessly about. At this juncture. Arthur Maxwell, a popular young clerk, came flying down to the beach on his bicycle. He quickly dismounted and plunged headlong into the river. He was a good swimmer, but had not proceeded half way to the unfortunates when he was seized with cramps, and with scarcely time to cry out .sank and never again came to the surface. Every member of the party was drowned except little Mildred. She was taken out alive, but expired in a short time. Maxwell's body was first recovered, and the others were soon afterward brought to the surface. * National Credit Hen at Detroit. The third annual convention of the National Association of Credit Men, was held at Detroit, calling together a goodly assembly of representative men from all parts of the country interested in making a uniform and firm basis for the founding of credits, reforming laws that are now unfavorable to an honest credit business, and securing legislation that will be helpful to the commercial interests of this country. The association was organized in Toledo two years ago, by representative credit men from the leading commercial interests and centers Of the country, and now it has. a membership of 2,332, which represents interested capital of over $600,- 000,000 and a volume of business of of over $1,800,000,000. Hon. Chas. G. Dawes, U. S. comptroller of the currency, made the leading speech of the convention. A reception was tendered the delegates and their ladies at the Hotel Cadillac. Michigan Boys to Reinforce Shafter. The- brigade commanded by Brig,- Gen. Henry M. DufBeld, ol Michigan, at Camp Alger has the honor of being the first expedition against the Spanish made up purely of volunteers. His brigade has sailed to Santiago to_ reinforce Gen. Shafter. The Yale and the Harvard carry this expedition, which will consist of about 4,000 volunteers Gen. Duffield's brigade consists 33d and 34th Michigan, Ninth shusetts and Third Virginia regiments. Owing to the fact that the Yale was not quite ready to sail Gen. Duffield's brigade was divided, and the aid Mipbigan and one battalion (the Marnuette, Houghton. Ionia-and Mt. Olemens companies) of the 34th were Che first veinnteers to leave Camp Alger for the front. They were giving a contain* #B*ewell- a4> -they n w e h e * to Dunn Loring, Va.,Xa»d boarded the car* for Newport News where they went aboard the Harvard, with an immense amount of supplies, camp equlpand ammunition. PINGREE AT CHICK AM AUGA. BUeulgttu't Governor Receives a Welcome at Camp Thomas. Gov. Pingree, accompanied by Inspector- General Case, quietly entered the camp of the 31st Michigan regiment at Chickamauga, just a day ahead of the time he was expected. It was the intention of Col. Gardener to meet the governor at the depot with an army wagon, drawn by four mules and have the band ready to welcome him upon his arrival at camp, but the first notice the regiment had of his arrival, was when he got out of an old carry-all, driven by a Negro, and was recognized by a sentinel at the guard house. The news spread quickly through the camp and every one turned out to give him a hearty welcome. The men had just returned from battalion drill, and they ran to greet him. They crowded around him to shake his hand until Capt, Baxter, officer of the day, had them form in two lines, and the governor passed between them, shaking hands as he passed. Cheer after cheer was given. His excellency was then conducted to Col. Gardener's tent, lie inspected the hospital and cook's teuts and after dinner accompanied Col. Gardener to call upon Maj.-Gen. Brooke, Brig.-Geu. Poland and Q.-M,- Gen. Lee. Gov. Pingree was visited later by officers and privates from regiments of other states and he was well pleased with the condition of affairs. A regimental drill was given in honor of the governor. • • • - The 35th Michigan Volunteer*. Having received positive assurunce that Michigan would be permilicilto furnish another regiment of volunteers under the Presidents second call, Gov. Pingree and the state military board went to work and by the time the formal order had been received from the war department the outline of the organization of the 35th Michigan volunteer regiment had been almost completed. Adjt.-Gen. E. M. Irish, of the Michigan National Guard, was chosen as colonel of the new regiment, partially in recognition of his services at Camp Eaton. Quartermaster-General Wm. F. White, of Grand Rapids, was named for lieutenant-colonel. Maj rs, Lieut. H. H. Bandholtz, Lansing; Geo. Corns, Detroit; third not decided upon; adjutant, E. S. Hoos, Kalamazoo; quartermaster, W. B. McDonald, Ionia; surgeon, with rank of major, Dr. O. P. Barber, Saginaw; assistant surgeons, with rank of lieutenant. Dr. H. A. Grube, Coldivater, and Dr. L. B. Sandell, Au, Sable. It was announced that the companies would be taken from districts not already represented^Companies will be drawn from the regions surrounding Alpena, Charlotte, Detroit, Wyandotte. Howell, Petoskey. Pontiac and Sanilac, and possibly from other communities. Then there will be one company of Sons of Veterans, who will probably be from all parts of the state. The officers will practically be picked out by Col. Irish. Men who may have been elected officers of independent companies will not stand any particular show. So far three captains have been practically settled upon. They i t vy W Y . 1-6,000 U. S. Troops Arrive Before the Beleaguered City, HOT FIGHTING IS EXPECTED. Admiral Hampton and Ms].-Gen.

The officers of the S. of V. company will probably be men who are prominent in that organization. Charlotte: The local military company recently organized by Sergt. Anness, of Ft. Wayne. Detroit, are in open revolt because of the action of the state military board in rejecting Anness as captain and appointing R. S. Lockton, a well-known politican of Marshall. Michigan Naval Reaerveg Loae a Kingston, Jamaica: The captain and officers of the auxiliary cruiser Yosemite, which is manned by the Michigan Naval Reserves, feel foolish and are thoroughly vexed. - As the Yosemite approached Port Royal she passed a large steamer going out. No attempt was made to ascertain her name, but on arriving here the Yosemite's captain learned that it was the Spanish steamer Purisima Coneepcion. The Yosemite, with other American cruisers, had been especially warned about this Spaniard as she would be a rich prize. She is said to have $100,000 in gold on board. Her cargo of food and medicine is destined ultimately for Cienfuegos and Havana. Capt. Emery, who is an old navy officer, is responsible for the error of not stopping her. A dispatch from Manzanillo, province of Santiago de Cuba, announces the arrival there of the Spanish steamer Purisima Conception, with food and medicines for the Spanish troops and carrying, it is said, ¢100,000 in gold. Elevator Fire at Byron. The elevator and wool warehouse of F. E. Close & Co., at Byron, was totally destroyed by fire. The loss is estimated at $20,000; insurance $15,000. An Ann Arbor freight car loaded with beans also burned. The Yosemite has been sent to Cien fuegbs to intercept supplies being sent to Havana by way of the south coast of Cuba. E. R. Hedrick^of Ann Arbor, a-gxat}- uate of the literary class of '00 of the U. of M.. has secured one of the Morgan, fellowships at Harvard. He held a scholarship at Harvard the past year, working exf-im' .---- i •v.ith^mati'."-. The United States army for the Invasion of Cuba, about 10,000 Btrong, commanded by Maj.-Gen. Shafter, arrived off Santiago de Cuba, after a six days' uneventful journey from Port, Tampa. The voyage throughout was tedious and uninteresting. The weather was excellent, and consequently there was little suffering from seasickness. But 14 cases of typhoid fever, and some measles developed, the former being especially ou the boats which carried horses and mules. Surgeons, however, say the health of the men is unexpectedly good. The heat and long confinement iu the holds of the transports have told very severelj' on the horses and mules, and many of them died. The first sight of laud was obtained in the vicinity of Santiago de Cuba, and when the topmasts Of the, blockading ships were seen they sent a thrill of enthusiasm through the soldiers. When the fieet of 37 transports swept up the southern coast and slowed up within sight of the doomed city of Santiago de Cuba, the soldiers were greeted with ringing cheers, which faintly echoed to the transports from the decks of the blockading warships far inshore, and were answered by the troops most heartily. An order from the admiral stopped the advance of the transports about l.r» miles to the southeast, and, escorted by the Gloucester, Gen. Shafter went forward on the Seguranca to confer with the admiral. The transports lay on the smooth sea while the plans were discussed by the leaders on board the flagship. After Admiral Sampson and Gen. Shafter had finished their first consultation they boarded the Seguranca and went to Acerraderos. about 17 miles west of Santiago, and near which place Gen.-Cnlixito Garcia is encamped with 3.(>0(> Cuban soldiers- Gen. Shafter and his staff and Admiral Sampson wont ashmv and proceeded to Gen. Garcia's headquarters, about a mile inland, where they spent several hours in consultation with the Cuban general. At the conclusion of the conference lien. Shafter and other officers had little or nothing to say regarding the plans tivr landing the American troops or for the co-operation of the Uubans. Within ".'4 hours, however, the work of disembarkation had begun. Three thousand men, the vanguard of Gen. Shatter's force, first went ashore at the old iron pier that was built to expedite the shipping of Manganese ore from the mines to the northward. While the troops were passing ashore Admiral Sampson's lieet bombarded the forts both east and west of Santiago. A force of 1,000 Cubans seemed to spring out of the ground at just the proper moment and attack the Spaniards near Daiquiri. The Spaniards had prepared to meet a disembarkation to the west of Santiago, and also to the eastward, but at Baiquiri there was only a Spanish blockhouse on a high cliff to the right of the landing pier, and a small fort and earthworks in the rear. Proceedings were begun, by the American fleet, which strung out along the coast for 20 miles, hurling shells at nearly every fortress. The fortifications at Aguadzores, Cabanas, Siborney and Juragua, as well as the blockhouse and Prize. the fort near Baiquiri were bombarded. Dispatches direct from Shafter and Sampson said there was very little resistance from the Spaniards, The New Orleans, Detroit, Castine and Suwanee shelled the vicinity before the landing and a big demonstration was made at Cabanas to engage the attention of the enemy. The Texas engaged the west battery for some hours and had one man killed. Admiral Sampson's dispatch indicated that he was carrying out his instructions thoroughly to clear a way for the landing of troops. Tbe cable station through which the American commanders will communicate with the departments at Washington has been established, as shown by the dates of the dispatches received at Playa del Este, a small place directly on the coast and about 15 miles east of Santiago. The change was made from Camp McCalla to Playa del Eate in order that the station might be nearer the scene of action. Washington: In both army and navy circles the information contained in the dispatches of Gen. Shafter and Admiral Sampson was received with intense satisfaction. The landing of so large a body of troops as Gen. Shafter at present has under his command is a task of immense proportions. A prominent oflieial of the w a r department' said that the complete debarkation-of the troops, animals, field guoftandauj^- pjies within a week after their arrival off the, Cuban coast would be a task we^; accomplished.., It. is probable in t^ie^opinion of the officer reverted io,, that only a partial landing of tbe troops was effected the first day and that the landing will be continued from <!uv »,r» dav until completed.

Washington: The following was received from Commodore Watson In onnynand of the Havana blockading squadron: "The captain - general (Blanco) states that the Spanish government refuses to exchange prisoners." Lieut. Hobson and his companions who sunk the Merrimac across the entrance to Santiago bay are the prisoners in question. A warship was sent under a flag of truce and tried to arrange for an exchange of prisoners, Gen. Blanco aent out a launch to meet the United States officer and his messenger stated that the governor-general wpuld not agree to any exchange. "The men are my prisoners, and I will keep them," said Blanco. "You will first have to capture Havana before getting them." Blanco also notified the American blockading fleet that he*will hereafter recognize no flag of truce, adding that every vessel within six miles' range will be fired upon, whether flying the stars and stripes or a white flag. Morro castle keeps tiring heavy shells at the blockading squadron, and it is not believed such accurate shots can be fired by Spanish gunners. I l l ISWWi >t)v * t i t * * J!

It is questioned whether with this force to back him Dewey will feel justified in assaulting Manila, or even accepting its surrender. Either course would involve heavy responsibilities for the admiral, and it is extremely desirable that no protext be afforded jealous European powers for intervention at Manila under guise of protecting the interests of their subjects. Therefore it may be that the admiral will wait for another 10 days until the second installment of troops reaches Cavite. In this case he probably will land the troops that arrive in the town of Cavite, which is now completely under the control of himself and the insurgents, and employ the time in accustoming them to Manila methods and climate. ciseo=have,left=Catiix^ Thefirst eleven, The l-a test ,d, isp_a tches from Admiral passed the Rock, bound for C a r t h a g e n a T 1 ^ ' ^ a n d ^ e r sourccyTiay t h a t ^ b e for orders; the last three have troops on board." Madrid: There are a number of rumors in circulation a*to the destination of Admiral Camura's fieet; one has it that the Spanish warships are now heading for Boston, Mass., with the intention of bombarding New England towns, and another report sets forth that the Spanish reserve fleet is going to the Philippines. The fleetr said to consist of over 20 vessels, is reported to have proceeded to . different destinations. It has an'enormous quantity of of war material on board, including a mysterious new explosive. Sampfton Secures a Cable. Washington: The war department has received information that its officials have secured an end of one of the cables running out from Cuba, and which, when properly connected, will give Admiral Sampson direct communication with the department at Washington. Later. — Direct communication hadbeen established between the United States and Guantapamo. Not only is Blanco cut off from the outside world, save through the Key West cables within our control, but the authorities in Washington have been placed in close connection with our forces at Santiago. To Gen. Greeley and his signal corps belongs the honor of achieving this last feat. Second Philippine Fleet Halls. The second expedition of U. S. troops has sailed from San Francisco to re-inforce Admiral Dewey at Manila. It consisted of 3,r>QQ soldiers on the steamers China, Colon, Zealandia and Senator. The troops were under the immediate command of Brig.-Gen. F. V. Greene and comprised the f o l l o w i n g First Colorado volunteer infantry; First Nebraska volunteer infantry; loth Pennsylvania volunteer infantrj'; two batteries Utah volunteer light artillery; 18th U. S. regulars; 23d U. S. regulars. The thirdo expedition will sail about July 1. NOTES ON T H E WAR SITUATION The Spanish reserve fleet is reported to have again returned to Cadiz. The war department will send 8.000 more troops to reinforce Maj.-Gen. Shafter at Santiago at once. During the recent bombardment oi Santiago's forts one of the 13-inch gunson the battleship Massachusetts was disabled by a shell from the forts. In spite of strong protests on tbe part of the colonels of the volunteer regiments at the front the war department insists on doing away with regimental hospital staffs and is creating division hospitals. Mrs J. Addison Porter, wife of President McKinley's private secretary, has joined the Red Cross society and gone to Key West as the assistant and adviser of Miss Clara Barton, the president of the society. Several Spaniards, among them a lieutenant, hare walked into Camp Mc- Calla on Guantanaino bay and surrendered in order t o .get something to eat. They say the Spanish soldiers about there are half-starved and would gladly surrender if they thought their JUvetf would be spared. After the defeat of the Spanish ait their base of operations near Camp Mc- Calla by the marines and Cubans, the* Oregon, Marblehead and Suwanee<uai*efully picked their way through the channel several miles above CatnpJVlc- Cafta and fired upon a large Spanish force at ilicacal point. A Cuban scouting party soon after fo,«r\d 48 dead Spaniard*. - insurgents are daily gaining victories over the Spaniards. They have captured 5,000 prisoners, including 3,000 regulars, the prominent generals, Garcia and Cordoba, and the governors of the provinces of Cavite, Balacan and Bataan. They have also captured 3,000,000 rounds of ammunition in the fortified cathedral at old Cavite, whose large garrison surrendered, giving the insurgents the entiie bay shore. They also captured on June 14, the town of Oalanga, the place next in importance to Manila on the bay, and now control the Manila waterworks. The insurgents o » land and the American squadron on the water completely surround Manila. All foreigners have fled to the ships- in. tbe harbor, while the Spaniards have placed the women, children and priests in the forts for safety. The family of Gov.-Gen. Augusti fled! to> the interior for safety. Owing to their lock of field guns, the insurgents are unable to take Manila, even if Admiral Dewey permitted, which he will not do. Gen. Nonet,.coming southward with 3,000 troops from Balacan. 30 miles north of Manila., found the railway line blocked and was attacked by insurgents in ambualu Fierce fighting ensued for three days, during which Nonet was killed. The native troops joined the insurgents and the Spaniards who were left,, about 500, surrendered. This.is but a sample of the victories won by the insurgents. Gen. Filipino, military leader of the insurgents, officially proclaimed a provisional government in old Cavite. There were great ceremonies, and a declaration of independence was read, renouncing Spanish authority. Gen. Aguinaldo was elected president. lie has informed U. S. Consul Williams of the formation of a provisional government, merely for cohesive purposes, and notified him of the desire *of the insurgents that the Philippine islands become an American colony, and also declaring that if this cannot be he will insist upon a republic being formed. If any otk*r country than the United states wants to secure possession of the Philippines it will have to fight for it. Tbe insurgents now have 10,500 rifles and eight field pieces. Some correspondents think that Aguinaldo will become intoxi ated by his success And will become intolerant of American control. TisV insurgents are, ho wcver, keeping their pledges to Admiral ttewey. A Madrid dispatch says: Capt.-Gen. Augusti telegraphs that he has gone into the walled city and that he will be unable to communicate further with the government. The belief 1B expressed in government circles that Capt.-Gen. Augusti will ask the foreign warships to land detachments to, occupy Manila, on the grotfnd that he ia no longer able to resist the insurgents, All the papers say the government is satisfied with the prospect of Capt.- Gen.

"Northmour," I said, "we all k n o w you h a v e a bad temper, and I am the last man to be Irritated by words.

We were admitted t o t h e pavtlion b y Clara, and I w a s surprised by t h e completeness and security of t h e defenses. A barricade of great strength, and y e t easy to displace,. supported the door against a n y violence from without; and t h e shutters of the dining-room, Into which X w a s led directly, and which w a s feebly illuminated by a lamp, w e r e even more elaborately fortified. T h e panels were strengthened by bars and cross-bars; and these, in their turn, were kept in position by a system of braces and struts, some abutting on t h e floor, s o m e on the roof, and others, In fine, against the opposite wall of t h e apartment. Northmour produced some cold meat, to which I eagerly set myself, and a bottle of good Burgundy, by which, wet a s I w a s , I did not scruple t o profit. I have a l w a y s been an extreme temperance m a n o n p r i n c i p l e ; b u t it is useless to push principle to excess, and o n this occasion I believe that I finished three-quarters of t h e bottle. As I cte, I still continued t o admire the preparations for defense. "We could stand a siege," I said at length. "Ye—es," drawled Northmour; "a very little one, per—haps. It Is not so much t h e strength of t h e pavilion F misdoubt; it is t h e double danger that kills me. If w e get t o shooting, wild as the country is, some one is sure to hear it, and then—why, then. it's the same thing, only different, as they say, caged by law, or killed by Carbonari. There's t h e choice. It is a devilish bad thing to h a v e t h e law against you In this world, and so I tell the old gentleman up stairs. H e Is quite of my w a y of thinking." "Speaking of that," said I, "what kind of person is h e ? " "Oh, h e ? " cried the other; "he's a rancid fellow as far as he goes.

It was an anxious business, this i n - spection, and left me down-hearted. There were t w o doors and five wlndews to protect and counting Clara, only four of u s to defend t h e m against an unknown number of foes. I communicated m y doubts to Northmour, w h o assured me with unmoved composure that h e entirely shared them. "Before morning," eald he, " w e shaM all be butchered and buried In Graden Ploe.

"Cassilis is a good man," said Northmour, "worth ten." "So I hear," cried Mr. Huddlestone eagerly; "so my girl tells me. Ah, Mr. Cassilis, my sin h a s found me out, you s e e !

You forget, m y dear, good boy, you forget I may be called this very night before ray Maker." His excitement w a s pitiful to behold, and I felt myself growing indignant with Northmour, whose infidel opinions I well knew and aeartily derided, as he continued to taunt the poor sinner out of h i s humor of repentance. "Pooh, m y dear Huddlestone!" said he. "You do yourself injustice. You are a man of t h e world Inside and out. and were up to all kinds of mischief before I w a s born.

For some seconds he lay back among the pillows like a man near to fainting; then he gathered himself together, and. in somewhat tremulous tones, began once more to thank me for the ?hare I was prepared to take in his defense. "One question, sir," said I, when he had paused. "Is it true that you have money with you?" He seemed annoyed at t h e question, but admitted with reluctance that h e bad a little. "Well," I continued, "It Is their money they are after, is i t not? W h y not g i v e it up to them?" "Ah!" replied he, shaking his head, "I have tried that already, Mr. Cassilis; and a l a s ! that it should be so, but it i s blood they want." "Huddlestone, that's a little less than fair," said Northmour. "You should mention that what you offered them was upward of t w o hundred thousand s h o r t T h e deficit is worth a reference; it I s for what they call a cool sum, Frank. Then, you see, t h e fellows reason in their clear Italian w a y ; and it seems to them, a s indeed it seems to me. that they may just a s well have both while they are about it— money and blood together, by George, and no more trouble for t h e extra pleasure."

Bad management keeps more people in poor circumstances than any other one cause. To be successful, one must look ahead and plan ahead so that when a favorable opportunity presents itself, he is ready to take advantage of it. \ little forethought will also save much expense and valuable time. A pro dent and careful man will keep a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy in the bouse, tbe shiftless fellow will wait until nscessity compels it and then ruin his best horse going for a doctor and have a big doctor bill to pay, besides; one pays out 25c, the other is out a hundred dollars and then wonders why bis neighbor is getting richer while he ie getting poorer.

All Ignorant men are superstitious, but all superstitious men are not ignorant. The balance of political power Is in the hands of men who can do nothing but vote and find fault. "What has become of the mosquito fleet?" anxiously asks a contemporary. Probably gone into summer quarters. Up to date Marshal Primo de Rivera, who declared "That rag called the American flag shall never float over the walls of Manila," has not been heard from in regard to recent events in the capital of the Philippines. The progress of English toward universal use was shown when Doctor Nansen recently addressed the Russian Geographical Society on the theme jf his Arctic adventures. He spoke in English, saying he knew no Russian, was not sure of German, and could not use French with any degree of ease; but not one of his audience complained of not being able to understand English. "Westward the course of empire takes its way," until px*w the west becomes the east. There axe few greatef romances in history than that suggested by the raising of the American flag over the Phil.pplnes. For they are a part of the land which Columbus sailed to seek and which he thought he had discovered, and they are now wrested from the land he served by the land which he did discover. If we were back a few centuries, that would be a theme for an epic. "We Chinese bind our feet and you Americans your lungs," a royal little lady said one day to a missionary who protested against the former crue1 practice; "it is a difference of custom, that is all, except that ours is the better/' Similar superiority is felt by the native women of India, some of whom were recently horrified by a sight of the corsets of an American traveler. After examining the garment one asked If she might touch her, and receiving permission, exclaimed, " 0 child of God! Have you really bones inside of you? We supposed that you must have been made without them, since you wear them outside." Lieutenant Carranza, whose bid for notoriety by challenging all the Washington officials whose names he knew or could obtain fell on barren ground, has now settled down as a member of Spain's secret service establishment in Canada. We are not sure that the challenged officials on this side of the line have the best of the bargain. It might be a waste of time and powder to fight a duel with a bloviating fire-eater like Carranza, but he would be safer in the hospital than as a cunning spy. As a Spanish lieutenant could not probably hit anything short of a forty-foot bill board, we must conclude that a great opportunity to remove a dangerous spy without incidental danger has been xnisiBr The liberal government in Canada is preparing to hold a referendum on the subject of prohibition. A bill is being prepared which will provide for a vote by Use entire people of Canada. *n the advisability of passing a federal prohibitory act, forbidding the manufacture, importation and sale of intoxicating liquors. 8v--ce 1878 ih«re h*ve been plebiscites in the J«*r provinces of Jaanitoba, Prince Edward Island, Ontario and Nova Scotia on the «ubject. each of which gave a majority for prohibition, the aggregate in the four be* ing 132,918 votes. It seems more than likely that yofcibition will receive a majority at the sropoeed plebiscite for the whole dominion, but It is not sure taat the government will then pass a prohibitory law. If, as Stephenson says, an idea can- BAt exist until the word to convey it to discovered, the converse supposes Snat ideas evaporate before words too frequently employed. "I should like aim greatly," a young freshman recently saM of her college president, "If he would eliminate ta* wort 'joy* from his eoaversation, and 'grant' from his prayers."

Now, on the eve of sjeaduatftoa, tfcoy tot* hove yloota m. Hat fro- «N4mttjo HE thoughts of the American p e o p l e again turn towards t h e s t a r s a n d stripes. There are flag days and all sorts of days we celebrate in 615" fashion or another, b u t w h e n t h e Fourth of July gets w i t h i n reaching distance, then we realize that the day of days is at hand. That Is why the star spsngled banner Is in the minds of everybody. The orators with silver tongues have told and the poets have sung about all that is great and glorious regarding the old flag. So much for patriotism. Really, the flag is a very prosaic benefit, apart f«om the sentiment that attaches to it. Thousands and thousands of prople gain their living, from one year's end to another, In making United States flags. Think of It. Every year, the people of the United States buy three millions of flags. During that same period a million flags disappear. Nobody knows where they go to. The American flag has just passed its one hundred and twenty-first birthday. The patched up affair that Betsey Ross gave to the world at the time of the revolutionary war has been reproduced millions of times. Yet the only change from the design that the expert fingers of Mrs. Ross prepared is in the number of stars. It Is just the same flag in appearance that decorated the hall in which the first congress of the United States met. It is a finer flag now in point of material, and almost any sort can be bought that one is willing to pay for, but whether it be silk or paper, it is the stars and stripes, the idol of the people, whose fame increases with the addition of every star. And all the time we think of the poetry and prose of the flag. If any reader of these lines has ever visited a foreign country, has been a stranger in some far away place over the ocean, he may remember the feeling of joy. of pride, almost rapture that came to him when he first saw the stars and stripes floating over the consulate. The writer remembers some years ago walking down the Bois de Boulogne in Paris. Just ahead of him was a regulation man of the world, and yet something about him indicated that at one time or another he had lived in America. He walked slowly down the avenue until all of a sodden, from the second story of a building at the right, there was flung to the breeae the silken folds of a beautiful specimen of the I morion flag. The man of the world •aw tt. In a second his sUk hat was off his head, and despite the onlookers he gave three as lusty cheers for the stars and stripes as ever came from an American throat. As the'writer reached him, he turned about and with tears rolling down his cheeks, said, "I did not know that the sight of anything could touch me like that." And then he cheered again. This is just by way of evidence that the average person who looks at, waves and carries the American flag has really no idea of the place in his heart that it holds. If anything were ever a thing of beauty and a joy forever, it is the flag of the United States. Thousands of people say that it does not protect them when away from home. It has been said in mass meetings that it was no longer the flag of the free. And yet there is not one of those who make the remarks referred to who would not fight In a minute for that same flag if any one beside an American citizenspoke against it. A singular.fact concerning theAmer lean flag and the people over whom It floats is that with all reverence for It they are dreadfully irreverent with it. The flag is something to be cheered and saluted and honored in every way, but when it is worn out it is cast aside and a new one substituted. Nobody knows and nobody cares where the worn out ones go to. Sufficient to the day is the fact that they have served their purpose. This by no means refers to the battle flags. No. indeed. If there are GAVE THREE LUSTY CHEERS, only three inches of red, white and blue, and a single star remaining attached to the staff of such a banner, the people think infinitely more of it than they would of the finest thirtyfoot flag that was ever made. The poor old rent and tattered banners all have a meaning. There is history, tragedy, romance and sometimes humor amon** the memories of the dear old relics. Let any one who doubts that pay a visit to the state house at Hartford. 'Jonn., that staid old town, where it used to be against the law for a man to kiss his wife on Sunday. Hard«featurad old farmers come in and riew the cases whore the flags ore located and presently, if one cares to watch, there will ho distinct evidence* of moisture and the dew on the grass of a June morning was never i I lightful than the dew of patriotism that really iprlngs from the heart of the American cltisen, whether he be old and hard-featured or in the flush of youth.

But when wo gather ourselves together and get to the wludow and look out; when we see on the nearest flagstaff the stars and stripes, brilliant and beautiful as the debutante in the first flush of social success, wo forget about the noise. We only remember that we are citizens of the greatest republic the world ever knew, and we know that any disturbance we may hear is In honor of that flag which is floating above us. We are proud of it. And then, as the day grows apace and all that it means 1B borne in upon us, the words of geniU3 come back to us and we say to ourselves that nature herself shows us that the United States will never be Bundered. France has the Illy, England has the rose, Scotland has the thistle, Ireland has the shamrock. All these have their day and pass from earth, but the stars shine on forever.

The most beautiful monuments ever erected to commemorate past deeds are those which, built by the peps of the poets, are. found in the literature of America. The hands that grasped the battle flags in the "days which tried men's souls," and the hands that, with the pen* have glorified banner and hero, • ' ; , C ' , r ' have also been the hands of patriots —patriots with hearts full of love, for liberty, not for conquest; for country, not self. Out of the gKeat number of subjects for literary work offered by American history no other one has received so much attention as the flag, Indeed, it has been called a "floating piece of poetry." It has been the inspiration of many a poem from the pens of that group of New England writers now so dear to American hearts, among whom are numbered Bryant, Longfellow, Whittier, Holmes, Emerson and Lowell; while the fame of many of our minor poets, such as Joseph Rodman Drake and Francis Scott Key, rests especially, if not entirely, on a single production in honor of the flag. Naturally a great many patriotic poems have grouped themselves about the wars which our history records. The revolutionary war has furnished considerable material of this character, though most of the poems relating the struggle was ended. Probably the earliest mention of the flflg.Jji poetry Is found In "An Ancient Prophecy." a poem written soon after the surrender of Cornwallls, and predicting the outcome of the war thus: "O king, my dear king, you shall be very sore, . Prom the stars and stripes you will mercy implore, And your lion shall growl, but hardly bite more." Later, the .first flght In the war for Independence is portrayed by Emerson in words familiar to every American: "By the rude bridge that arched the flood, Their flag to April's breeze unfurled. Here once the embattled farmers stood, And fired the shot heard round the world." Holmes says, In speaking of the heroes of the battle of Lexington: "While o'er their ashes the starry fold flying Wraps the proud eagle they roused from his nest." Thus showing the flag as the emblem of the nation which those New England farmers helped to establish. In spite of the "Ancient Prophecy," however, the Hon. still growling, attempted a second bite, and the war of 1812 ensued. Again the poets come forward, and the flag of glory is borne irresistibly along, cheered on and encouraged by such words as these: "Comrades! Join the flaglof glory, Cheerily tread the dfclkof fame, Earn a place in future story, Seek, and w,ln a .warrior's name. * * * * . * * - * May our. bannered stars as ever Splendidly o'er freemen burn, Till the night of war is over. Till the dawn of peace return." It was .during a battle of this war also that the "Star Spangled Banner" wss written, one of the most patriotic and impassioned songs In all literature The Mexican war, too, adds its ooni tribution. A poem relating to that contest tolls how, after an ail-day's fight, the few surviving American soldiers were able to place the victorious flag upon the public buildings of Monterey: "Our banner on those turrets wave. And there ©or evening bugles fihy." The Ohio state convention of the Republican party, held HI Coluiul>ut v.as. unusually free from wrangling and passed off almost as peaceably o# a Methodist pruyer meeting-. There were four cpnleated. district, In which the delegation of 2-st district, in which uie uuitgaaoh of Mayor McKlsson, of Cleveland, Ugured, was the only one of any proportions, and It wns regurded by some as the' Inauguration of a third term movement by Mayor AicKlsson. The MuKiaum contestants kept the committee on creuentlals in session ail rpght unci all ihe ca»ea were divided uga.nst the aireuxly small minority. When lion. H. M. Daugherty. chairman of the suite central commuted, ca.led the convention to order, the auditorium was tilled, except the i;ailerle3; The only disturbance was in that section of tae hall assigned to the 21&t congressional district. The Hanna delegatus from that district had the tickets, hut the Melvisson delegates pot in early, through the indulgence of an assistant sergeant-ai-anns, aim preempted the seals. The other delegates crowded Into thtf same seals, and both delegations participated, but Cnulrman Grosvenor put everything through on viva voce votlnp, so that there was no eol.lslon. After pruyer by Dr. Franklin Mc- Elfresh, Chairman Daugherty, in opening the convention, strongly Indorsed he war against Spain and the President's policy. He then announced that Gen. Grosvenor would take charge of the convention as temporary chairman, with Hon. John R. Malloy, of Co umbus, as temporary secretary, and F. W. Gass. of Cincinnati, temporary sergeant-at-arms. Secretary Malloy read a letter from Senator Hanna, In wl.lch the senator expressed the regret t h a t his congressional d u U e ^ d f t a l r i M J ^ "offered this sentiment: "Kepublicanlsm In Its broadest, truest sense, devotion to principles arid loyalty to party organization, the administration of P r e s e n t Mc- Kinley as a fulfillment of our p'.ed?es to the American people and a guarantee of the future prosperity of our country." On be!ng introduced as temno-arv ^ a i r - man Gen. Grosvenor revtwed the pledges of the party at ihe S' Louis convention and what had been done since the inauguration of President McKlnley. His speech was regarded as thf keynote of the Republican campaign. Tn It he said that the American Hag would remain In the West Indies and Philippines, and wherever It was planted in warfare.. After the appointment of committees the convention adjourned for the day. When the convention reassembled it did rot require much tln^e to n>[=h nn its business. The temporary organization was made-permanent. Tne session lasted less thao two hours and most of that time was devo ed to u n s e ' t i n g the sm 11 minority of dissenters. After the contests were disposed of. everything was unnn'mous and by acclamation. Five nominations were made within 12 minutes, including the presentation and recording of speeches. The delegates, after the convention perfected Its permanent organization, were a.I H a n n a men. If the factions were not completely w'ped out thev were at least shut out. There was some doubt expressed as to two of the 21 members of the state central committee, Brown, of Toledo, and Craighead, of Dayton—but they were not long in announcing themselves as In accord with the maloritv. ?o 'hat the party machinery is entirely In the hands of the friends of Senator Hanna for the next year. rw,v.

If biliousness isn't the bully of the body then what is ? When once biliousness gets the upper hand you don't dare say your stomach is your own. " Don't you dare eat that dish says biliousness, or you'll see what I'll do.'1 YOH take the dare, and you do see or rather feel, the weight of the bully's revenge. The head aches, not a regular ache, out an open and shut ache. The eyes ache, not with a dull, tired ache, but with an agressive ache, as if they were being' bored by a gimlet. I h e stomach trembles with nausea. "The whole head is sick and the whole heart is faint." There are scores of hundreds of people who live so under the dominion of this bully biliousness that they don't dare eat or drink without hit permission. There's no need of such slavery. Dr. J. C. Ayer's Pills effectually cure biliousness. "For fifteen years I have used Dr. J. C. Ayer's Pills, and find them very effective in all kinds of bilious complaints. They are mild in operation and easy to take. I prefer them to any other pill, and have yet to see the case where they have failed to cure."—A. SWANGER, Texarkana, Ark. • I have used Dr. J. C. Ayer's Pills in cases of biliousness and general disorders of the stomach and bowels and have found them to be always reliable.

D U F F Y , Rockport, Texas. "Having used Dr. J.

The speaker referred to the improvement in the tlme-s a s a "fictitious prosperity," and h e herd t h a t t h e country's monetary s y s t e m still needs change. A s to the war, Chairman Barkworth said it w a s a nonpartisan w a r and should be carried on bv a united country. T h e veil between the three silver parties of Michigan w a s bec o m i n g thinner, and the chairman predicted the t h a t the time w h e n thev would b e c o m e one In organization a s well a s in principle w a s not far distant, tn Michigan a s well a s in the nation. Mr. Barkworth's speech w a s liberally applauded. Fred A.

T h e strumrle, he (^- clared, w a s w h e t h e r t h e c o m m o n people shall control the government of the country or not. Baker, speaking of the silver men's support of the war, referred to Grover Cleveland's address on the a c - Suisitlon of territory, and said: "When I nd m y s e l f in accord with Grover Cleveland.

Ei»«'c'a!- U- do we feel Jurt pride in the high character Then c a m e the election of a chairman oC the s t a t e central committee, and Daniel J. Campau, of Detroit, w a s elected without a word of opposition. Mr. Campau, in his speech of acceptance, said he .hought the honor paid him w a s due rather to the principles h e represents ;han to his personal popularity. T h e convention then took a recess to permit the other conventions to make their nominations. The Populists had had a rather warm time over the conference committee's report. Ed S. Grcee, of Detroit, and several o t h e r s objected to the plan of nornlnaions in separate convention. T h e y wanted to meet in m a s s convention, a s w a s done two years ago. However, they were voted d o w n and the conference committee report adopted by a v o t e of 28 to 31. Grece and K. J. Jeffries, of Detroit, made the fight against the conference committee report in the interest of Henry A. Robinson's canclld.'icy. T h e y realized that if separate conventions were held Whiting would carry the Democratic gathering, w h e r e a s in case a m r s s convention of all the e.ements w a s held Rootnson wou.d have had more strength, but the fight ended in favor of the conference report and then all w a s smooth Bailing. The regulation Populist platform w a s reaffirmed and a clause added denouncing war bonds. The officers nominated were a s follows: Secretary of state, Leroy E. Lockwbod, of Coldwater; land commissioner. Carlton Peck, of Lapeer; member of the board of education, George E. Wllletts, of Marshall. The silver Republicans had a slight row over their resolution?. The platform a s reported declared for bimetallism: but -did not specify the Chicago brand. There WHS objection and the committee prepared another report, in which the ratio of 16 to 1 w a s mentioned definitely. T h e financial plank also declares that McKinley and Oage practically adopted the gold standard faith of the Indianapolis platform. The increased bond issues since 1893 w a s viewed with alarm. The resolution further declared in favor of a vigoro u s prosecution of the war. Attention w a s called to the high patriotism of Michigan's volunteers; a demand w a s made for better pay for private soldiers; direct legislation w a s favored: t h e union of the reform parties urj;ed. Congressmen Brucker and Todd were complimented for their v o t e on Hawaii. The platform also opined that no reforms could be expected from Republican legislatures, dominated a s they are bv federal patronage. The Republican silver men introduced a n Innovation, and gave their m a l e candid a t e s the company of a lady. Mrs. Flora B. Renkes. superintendent of schools of Barry county, w a s nominated for superintendent of public instruction, and s h e is probably the iirst w o m a n that ever ran en a state ticket in Michigan. The other nominations made were John L. Friable, of HilLsdale. for auditor-general, and Royal A. H a w l e y , of Ionia, for attbrnevgoneral. The throe co.riyontions, a m a l g a m a t e d In the Democrats' hall and went through the c t r e m o n y of indorsing the candidates? named, and then the gathering organized a s t h e convention of the I*emocratic- People's-t'nion-Silver party, with T.

Elizabeth E a g l e s field, of Grand Rapids, made a sjpeech in which she said she v.-ould see to it that the w o m e n of the state would help the fusion ticket If there w a s a w o m a n upon it. »>tPlln R. Whiting, in accepting the nomination for governor, said he wouK not discuss important issues. "We arc now united," he said, "'and w e shall soon become the majority party of the s*ate. (Applause.) It m a y be too t*oon to hope for this in this campaign, but t w o years from now T believe we shall carrv the s,tate for William J. B r y a n . " (Applause.) Mr, Whiting said one of the heaviest burdens of the people is their debt, and there w a s no hope of getting rid of it under th<5 gold standard. Whiting went on with the d i s c i s s i o n of the silver propaganda, s a y i n g the people are suffering from "bond slavery," and t h a t there w a s a trick to m a k e a more important issue of the matter of taxation, which, he s»ld. w a s straining at « g m u and s w a l l o w i n g a camel.

I tried doctors and various remedies without relief. After taking two bottles of your Vegetable Compound, the relief I obtained was truly wonderful. I have now taken several more bottles of your famous medicine, and can say that I am entirely cured.** Mrs. HENBY DOBB, NO. 806 Findley S t , Cincinnati, Ohio, to Mrs. Pinkham: " For a long time I suffered with chronic inflammation of the womb, pain In abdomen and bearing-down feeling. Was very nervous at times, and so weak I was hardly able to do any* thing. Was subject to headaches, also troubled with leucorrhoea. After doe* torin? for many months with different physicians, and getting no relief, I had given up all hope of being well again when I read of the great good Lydia E. Pinkbam's Vegetable Compound was doing., 1 decided immediately to give it a trial. The result was simply past belief. After taking four bottles of Vegetable Compound and using three packages of Sanative Wash I can say I feel like a new woman. I deem it my duty to announce the fact to my fellow sufferers that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable remedies havs entirely cured me of all my pains and suffering. I have her alone to thank for my recovery, for which I am gratef u l . M a y heaven bless her for the good work she is doing for our sex."

A box containing wheat saturated ] with strychnine was recently placed In the hands of a scientist for examination because of the curious faot that a number of insects had beta found there, all of whioh were busily engaged in devouring the poisoned grain. Bo remarkable did this appear that studies have been made of the tastes and polson-reststing qualities of some of these small creatures. It is ascertained that the weevil will grow and flourish on grain mingled with strychnine. This is destructive to almost all insects/but the weevil seems to prefer it to other food. Samples of the same poisoned grain were glvea pests, and in every instance they died almost immediately. In this same Una of research it may be said that almost every poison plant has Its parasite, and from it some form of life derive* its subsistence. A Practical Invention.

J BEWICK AND AUDUBON. Two Or*»t Xaffemlirt* with Widely Varying FtoUU. The naturalist's mind is, above all things, receptive; open to impressions, not creative; a sensitive plate which records if it can, and if it canno^, receives the impressions for its own satisfaction and enjoyment. We believe that the very best record extant of this receptlveness and of the impressions which eucb minds rce^ye from nature, and of the mingled characters and relativity of these impressions, is seen in the cuts in Bewick's two volumes en birds—not so much In the plates of the birds as in the little vignettes with which the book is adorned, and in the tiny landscapes often inserted behind the figures of the different species. He know the wrinkles in the bark of every sort of tree, the natural line of the splits and the cracks in dead wood and living wood, the angle that each kind of twig makes with its parent branch when living, and the portions it loses when dead. Every shift of weather, the carpentry of the shed, the gate, the barn, the record of the tombstone, and the death and decay of men, animals and trees were all recorded on the sensitive plate of this northern naturalist's brain. He evidently derived Intense satisfaction from his way of life. Yet his area of interest was very limited. This matured very little to one who aaade such uae of it. But though change and variety are in time greatly desired, and the new sights give keener pleastire than the old, for in natural history as in other things the appetite grow* *>y what it feeds on, ft may be doubted whether the enjoyment necessarily increased wtth the quantity of food provided, Audubon, who had half a continent to roam jpver, from Florida to Labrador, and from Now England t# the Rocky Mountains, was not mora keenly happy than Bewick, wboa* range was limited te the moors of a ooraar of Northumberland, erf wbHa Audubon aisnaalf notes in lie Journals that "for sixteen miles a* taw no object of interest" The ga—tttf of Bowick and Audubon at Kawoattk, and their reciprocal display, be- tfee oae of fcle paintings from the wealth of Amet4- JfttfJ* 4*4 Apra. and. by (fee otagr f 0 (KottSitotMS ®f fUumittKtittg <&il Our oil marketed iu this district uader brand of Don't be deceived by paying a fancy price for an oil that has a fictitious value 'and which does not give as good results as are obtained from olir Water White __JEleetri^Oil.

CHAPTER An Astonishing Discovery. •With one glaaee--around—toe -anack meet, which gave no sign of being tenanted but a moment before by nearly a score of people, Ivan bounded up t h e steps and, removing the oaken bar,which had been carefully.replaced when the door was closed after Ilda's entrance, stood, silently for a moment. "Without t h e r e ! " he asked. "What do you want?" "Admittance!" was the prompt reply. '•Your object at this hour?" "Speech with youl" Ivan glanced once mare.._&bout_ the room. Then with the single word "Enter!" he flung the door wide open. A tajl, soldierly figure stood in the "doorway an instant, and then without a moment's hesitation entered ,and, descending the steps, calmly surveyed the apartment. Ivan.closing the door,descended and stood face to face with a stranger, whom no surveyed with keenest interest. "Now. sir, the object of "this visit?" asked Ivan as he pointed to a chair. The stranger, ignoring the courtesy and speaking in the unmistakably peremptory manner of a man accustotaied •to command, after another glance around the room, fixed his eyes upon 'Ivan, "1 seek information of a young girl—a musician." _ Ivan could not repress a slight start of surprise';' effort to control himself as he return ed the fixed glance of the stranger •'Her brother!" and as the stranger spoke he extended his baud. Ivan grasped it involuntarily. "You surprise m e " . Raid the, .inJffiQr,-^"aralPBff "Her name?" "Ilda Barosky!" As he uttered the words the stranger unbuttoned the great coat which enveloped him to t h e throat, and d/splayed an officer's uniform. Then with an easy indifference, he threw himself into the chair with the air of a man who had come to take possession and was bent upon something of a long stay. "Why do you seek Ilda Barosky here?'" asked Ivan. " .' "Because," was the quick reply, "she wCs seen to enter this house and has not. since left it. She is here." ".Seen to enter it—by whom . ' -—'•'<<}• my Kfrvnnt whom I ordered to you are her brother I have no right to object. I m a y leave a message for her, may I not." Ivan bowed. "Then say to her,"- continued the stranger, "that Alexis Nazimo#-~" "Alexis Nasimoff!" Ivan Interrupted with a start, and then, with an eagerness which astonished the stranger, he repeated, "Alexis Nazimoff! Are you Alexis Nazimoff?" It,was now the turn of Alexis to bo astonished at the intense interest of Ivan. "I am," he replied. "Colonel Alexis Nazimoff7,T wenf oh Ivan eagerly, as if to make assurance doubly sure. "I am Colonel Alexis Nazimoff." This with a faint suggestion of a smile at the other's eagerness. "But why this—" .'And the betrothed-^busband of Olga!" -^ Had a shell suddenly exploded beneath his feei, Alexis Nazimoff could hardly have been more astounded. With a look of profound amazement at Ivan, and then a glance at his surroundings, he paused a moment before speaking, as if he hardly comprehended the inquiry. ;jVIlle. Olga Karsicheff." Alexis said; in a tone of more hauteur than he had yet assumed, "and I have been betrothed for two years—but—" as the possible, significance of Ivan's words forc- Btoiti .a* first moment I loved Olga, but it was not with that hopeless passion t h a t a peasant might feel for a princess—*she was so far above m e In rank, birth, station, everything*. "But as time went on, and t h e baroness left us together—never dreaming for a moment that the secretary would dare to raise his eyes to one as exalted as MUe. . Karsicheff—we became more and more acquainted. There - t a s t e s we possessed in wrmmmm^m RAILROAD LITIGATION, * - * wm . , A, A m common—music and literature art. Finally, at the baroness' solicitation, I began to give Mile. Karsicheff lessons in English pronunciation, and together we began to read tole British poets. You may imagine the result. One day I felt myself carried away by my love for Olga, and there on my knees, in one breath, I told her of ray adoration, and begged her forgiveness. I found that my love was returned.' Alexis started. "Olga then told me of your betroth- -*v> W H ' e you w^r** » ^ y *n Asia there was no immediate peril, and for months we lived in a fool's paradise.

Karsicheff in such a manner? I—" He was again interrupted by Ivan, now speaking with feverish haste, his words flowing in a very torrent, to the amazement of Alexis.. "Tell me, tell me," he exclaimed, as he grasped Alexis' hand with a grip of iron, "tell me, do you love her, do you worship her—is she all in ah to you—has she given you her heart—do you possess her love—do you dare to make her your wife?" and . he paused out of breath by his impassioned string of questions. Alexis gazed at him in wonder. Then, as if speaking to himself, he said, "This man is insane." "No. n o ! " exclaimed Ivan, "I am not follow her." «0 insane. Listen to me—listen, for Ood'3 Ivan's eyes flashed. "May I ask by what right an officer sends his servant to play the spy upon a defenseless girl ^'because she happened to be alone and unprotected. When an officer—a man of rank—forces his attentions upon a girl who, being a musician, is presumably of lower degree than himself, he -can-have but one object in view—her dishonor!" The stranger sprang to his feet, and half-drawing his sword, said in a voice of anger: "Stop, sir! When you attribute my visit here, or my actions, to a dishonorable motive, you lie! It Is because I am a man of honor—because I respect the girl, that I am here to-night. Summon her h e r e ! " Ivan stood motionless. ' "Well, sir!" The stranger spoke with some impatience. "Here she comes not," said Ivan calmly. "I forbid it!" It Was now the stranger's turn to start.!' "You forbid' it!" he exclaimed. "Aifcl pray, sir, by what right do you assume to decide for the girl?" "By the right of being her protector." The stranger changed color. It was sake^-for your happiness, mine, the happiness of Olga. depend upon your words. Do you love Olga with all that devotion, that depth of affection, that would make you give up an—life itself, if need be—^or her happiness? Tell me—answer truly, for the dear Gods love—would you force Olga to pn nnwilltng marriage? would you drag a helpless, friendless girl, to an unloved life with you if her heart were given to another? __Answer me now, for Godls sake, for life and death hang upon your words!" Alexis Nazimoff gazed at the man before him as if he could scarce believe his senses. This man—here—in this place, with these gloomy surroundings, to talk thus of Olga Karsichett— lit his beliulhed wife—of the daughter of the powerful minister of police. But I\an's manner moved him. "No," was his reply, "I would never marry an unwilling bride/' Ivan dropped his head and sank on a chair. "Thank- God, thank God," was all he said. "Pard%^ me," said Ivan at length, "I was somewhat overcome by my agitation in t h e first place, and by the joy and hope which your words gave to me, and will give to one who is dearer to me than life itself—Olga!" That name was again repeated. Alexis was annoyed. "I must ask you to explain,' he said, "by what right you speak of Mile. Karsicheff, my betrothed wife, as 'Olga!'" Ivan arose. He took a hurried step to the right—and left—pause a .moment, and then returned- to Alexis, went to the home of the Baroness von Rhineberg, and is there now." "Good God!" exclaimed Alexis. "Can this be, true?" "It is true.".replied Ivan. "See." ri£ exclaimed, producing a key, "here, is the proof. This will admit me to the Rhineberg mansion and I can bring her here. Shall we put it to the test? Will you hear the avowal of- her love for me from the lips of Olga herself?" "Yes! Go!" almost shouted Alexis. "We shall put it to the test. In God's name go, and let me be convinced, and I swear that if Olga Karsicheff enters that, door to-night she shall never be my wife." "And I swear .to you she shall enter. On that I stake my happiness—and h e r s ! " And now the great strain under which Ivan had been since Alexis re- ..jvk.(L&atfoIl.o.winsJiisjnu5£^^ i* • - •»> a s If he h&d received a blow. Him stunned him. His voice—his whole manner—changed in an instant. He : spoke with an'evident effort, painfully, hesitatingly, as if afraid to trust his intense interest. Seating himself, he turned to Alexis and said: "You are a man—a soldier— can I trust you fully and freely? Will you give me your word of honor to • keep, as an- inviolable secret.. w)iat_ I am abom to say?" Alexis paused before making reply. At length he spoke: "Yes, on the word of honor of an officer and a gentleman, you may trust me. I will keep your secret." Ivan began his stAI*y.—He* Bpoku In a low and impassioned voice, but 'lliu uanieslnesB and sincerity whioh • V I speech. "You are—not—her—" and ho paused. "I am her brother," was the simple reply. The effect of this announcement on the-stranger amazed Ivan. Thv pained and anxious expression of his face changed to one ot gratified relief, which in its way gave place rr> a look of astonishment and surprise.' marked the tones went home to the heart of Alexis, and left in his mind no doubt of their truth. In a few words Ivan made known what the reader has already learned of his early life and that of his sister Ilda. Alexis listened with interest until Ivan began his story of his career in the house of the Baroness von Rhineberg, "It was here." Ivan went on. " t h a t . I first saw Mile. Karsicheff. She, and the baroness were devotedly attached to each other and the ^baroness frequently brought her Into the library. "'JWGCXOJW/TJE: GOfn must be revealed. For weeks I have begged and prayed Olga £0 fly with me. but she has refused, preferring to wait until the last hope was gone^— an appeal to youl Now that you have returned, Olga was to have told you all, but you came into my life to-night, and you know the story. Now do yo'u wonder t h a t I was so astonished when you revealed your name?—do you wonder a r my fervor and anxiety as I asked yt?a t t j o u would make Olga an unwilling bride?" Alexis sat spellbound. Ivan watched him with anxious eyes. "What you say may be true," at length said Alexis, "but I must have better proof than your simple word." —-"Yuii shall—you shall.!"_. eagerly cried Ivan. "You shall hear it from the lips of Olga hersel-f," ; — • "When and where?" asked Alexis, rising to his feet. • - "Here and where you stand within an hour's time." "What! Here! Man, are you mad!

It was an accident that led to the discovery of the method of transferring handwriting to iron. An iron founder while experimenting with molten Iron under different conditions accidentally dropped a ticket Into a mold. He presently found that the type of the ticket was transferred to the iron In distinct characters. Following up the Idea which this fact suggested, he procured a heatproof ink, with which he wrote invertedly on ordinary white paper. This paper was introduced into the mold before the molten Iron was poured in. When the mold cooled the paper had been consumed by the heat, but the ink, which had remained Intact, had left a clear Impression on the Iron. ~~ - """":" % M » « T b e y A r e W i d e B r i m m e d , H i g h n n d F r a g i l e . "In a lecture on Korea, Burton Holmea, speaking of the men's hats, said: "Though Korea and especially-Seoul has many foreigners and the people have become accustomed to strangers,1, they adhere closely to their curious costumes, the hat being the most lin presslve part of the garb.

'*The hat consists of a wide brim and a crown high enough to contain the topknot. The hats are made of many materials and vary in price from $2 tc $40. Their form dates back to a time, centuries ago, when a king who was fearful of plots and conspiracies devised the head wear as a protection against his noble enemies. If men could not get their heads together, he argued, they could not engage in a conspiracy, so he issued an edict compelling his courtiers to wear hats with gigantic brims. Then in order, to pre= vent fighting on the street he ordered that these hats be made of a thin porcelain. In case of a fight the hat would certainly be broken. This would necessitate explanations from the nobleman, and street rows were thereby ended. ^y "Though#the hats are no longer made of porcelain, they are sufficiently fragile to be bmkeu if the wearers engage In any violent*Henionstrations."

A sound or gesture made by an animal under any mental or emotional lmprtj»ssion and calling out a similar one in another animal is an element of language, when the rabbit quickly beats the ground, its follow rabbits know that the-re is danger somewhere, and they take action accordingly. That is rabbit language. When the hunter imitates the rabbit and thus conveys the same ideas, he is '^speaking" the rabbit language for the time being. Many animals use signs, which of course are understood through the eyes. The ants converse by touching antennae and feet. Many insects rub the elytra. This is animal language in Its simplest form. It expresses but few ideas. But there are animals which are,capable of modulating their "voices." Even the common rabbits, which seem to be mute, are constantly making sounds, which a little observation will soon discover to be ever changing in volume, modulation, etc. Much of this method of communication changes when the animal is brought into civilization from the, wild state. The wild dog, for instance, barks very little when in freedom. How the household dog barks and is able to express himself is well known. l l i d d e u T a t t o o M a r k s . An escaped convict was on trial before a French court, and the question turned upon his identity with a prisoner known to have been tattooed. There was no appearance of colored marks upon his arm, and the question submitted to M. Leroy, the medico-legal expert, was whether the man Imd ever been tattooed. M. Leroy applied strong friction to the skin of the man's arm. This had the effect of bringing out white lines as cicatrices, with a. slight bluish tint.

D., after more than a decade of seismic disturbances which extended from Japan to the Mediterranean, the whole of Italy was visited, according to Slgonlus, by a fearful epidemic, of which the nature is not recorded.

Writing of the people of the Labrador coast, in Harper's Magazine, Norman Duncan tells a pathetic story of a poor mother whom he met sitting with her child outside the Battle Harbor hospital: " 'He've always been like that,' she said.

" Notwithstanding a good many subordinate granges have adopted resolutions approving of the Brownlow good roads bill it is only reasonable to assume that many have done so without understanding Its details fully. The legislative committee of the national grange not long ago met in Washington and went over this bill carefully and also certain others bearing on farmers'v interests and discovered therein some/fefttures that the grange could not afford to^aRfirove; consequently they have had drafted and introduced In congress what is known as the ' grange good roads bill. Some of the j marked differences between the two are outlined below. i i I The B r o w n l o w bill provides for t w e n t y - t w o members of the bureau a n d necessary J assistants, on a total salary a n d expense j • roll of )75,000, aa compared w i t h only three l I commissioner's provided by the grange bill | o n , a total a*lary of $15,000 a n d necessary assistants, their salary and t h e expense ' total not stipulated, but left to the discretion of the bureau and the secretary of agriculture. The g r a n g e bill iloe8 not, aa i the Brownlow bill does, prohibit the use i of funds for road building In municipali- ; ties of 15,000 or more people. This is also left to the bureau and secretary. Both bills leave to these authorities the decision as to the necessity for the highw a y s applied for. The main point of dif- I ference b e t w e e n the g r a n g e and the Brownlow bills is that the grange bill ; provides that the applications m u s t c o m e from the states or territories through , proper public road officials, while the Brownlow bill w o u l d allow a n y civil sub- Tvlglun of -¾ "BTHW tor sale f o r - a i d t£=*hegovernor does not ask for It. This m i g h t place the township or county over the Btate in s o m e c a s e s and t h u s give only a local importance to road building enterprises. Under the g r a n g e bill this, objection is eliminated a n d the s t a t e m u s t help -in the undertaking. Subordinate granges hereafter, In passing resolutions relative to roads, will do well to distinguish between the Brownlow and the grange good roads bill. The latter is one they can approve beyond a doubt. One feature of the bill which we consider decidedly better for the- farmers' Interests is that the secretary of agriculture is really made the chief executive officer of the road commission that the bill calls for; Indeed he has almost supreme control. Knowing Secretary Wilson as most members of the Order do, by reputation at least, as being most heartily in sympathy with the farmers and working for them in every possible way, they can feel safe in trusting to him and the commission over which he would preside to carry out the provisions of the bill. Irery subordinate grange in Pennsylvania that adds five new members during the quarter ending March 31 will receive a prize of a photograph of the .state grange officers suitable for framing.

D U F F Y , M. D. 8»er«««ry etfth* American Church Blblo liwtftuto Copyright, 1904 By Ber. F. P. Duffy tt is uaiveraally admitted t h a t &a a p a t r i o t Cteorge Washington . standa without a rival la t a e a n n a J i of t h e world. It Is not, however, s o generally allowed that a s a military genius he transcends ' a l l others. Americans and hia admirers t h e world over might well reat content with beholding their ideal citizen acclaimed with universal consent t h e unique figure in t h e annals of. human weal, industry and peace. Yet I do not think it would l ^ r d t o show t h a t even in military s he ia still without a peer. the arts of peace, not^war, is heme, and we shall therefore e a v e the question of military genius to a more convenient season and address ourselves to t h e subject in -hand: Washington and t h e American flag. This natnrjaUy faHg under t h e threefold head—Washington's Ancestry, the Evolution of t h e Flag, and the Symbolism of the Flag." $ First, Washington's Ancestry. As far as historical research h a s yet reached back, Washington's ancestry has been located in Durham, in t h e north of England. From Durham some of t h e Washingtons migrated to Lancashire. Then we find them settling in Northamptonshire, in t h e reign of H e n r y VII. From Northampton the great-grandfather of Washington emigrated to America in or about t h e year 7. T h e pursuits followed by t h e hingtons may be summed up ) t h e farm. It Is around this last that t h e most interesting and romantic incidents of t h e family gather, and Northampton is the scene of t h e varying vicissitudes that culminated in t h e emigration of Lawrence Washington to Virginia. T h e emigrant, who was knighted by J a m e s LI spent his younger days in Brington. In the parish church there are two sepulchral stones of absorbing Interest to every American. One with ^the daterTtfte is over t h e grave of-theemigrant's father. On it appears his arms "impaled" with those of his wife. The second covers the grave of an uncle, and has on a brass a simple family shield with t h e extraneous crescent appropriate to a younger son. But that which is of transcendant interest to very American citizen Is that here on t h e tombstone of t h e dead a/e emblazoned emblems sacred to a great ration and which thrill the soul of a mighty people; the embryo of the National Flag—the, Stars and Stripes. T h e stars on the shield have this peculiarity, they a r e five pointed, whereas six points a r e the general characteristic of heraldic stars. On the coat of arms are three stars and two horizontal bars or zones „ with " a l t e r n a t e gules and white"—gules being the word in heraldry for red—in a vertical position. H e r e we^discover the nucleus, the fons et origo, of the American Flag. Three years ago, when spending a lengthened vacation in England, l had of a parish not far from Bringi t w a s a source of never failing tlolTTd visit "God^r Acre;" t o t w8' close to t h e ashes of the dead, to meditate upon t h e origin of the American Flag, to delight in the discoTerYvOf the hidden meaning of its symboliih^, and oft to quote t h e opening lines of Cowper's h y m n : "God moves in a mysterious way His wonders to perform!" Second, T h e Evolution of t h e Flag. 'In colonial times each colony had its own peculiar ensign, a n d both army and navy of the United Colonies displayed various flags. Some were colonial, others were regimental, and still others were for special occasions; T h a t at Fort Sullivan. Charleston harbor, was a blue field with a silver crescent. T h e ensign under which the battle of Bunker Hill WAS fought was t b e New England flag. T h e flag of an American crulsci Is thua doccrlbed by e London Chronicle of January, 76: stripes, alternate red a n d white, and that the union b e thirteen stars, white on a blue field representing a new constellation." T h e first display of this flag a t a military poet was a t Fort Schuyler, site of t h e present city of Rome, N. Y. Paul Jones claimed he was t h e first to show t h e s t a r s a n d stripes on a naval vessel. T h e national flag first appeared over a foreign stronghold, Fort Nassau, New Providence, Bahama Islands, on I t s capture, June 28, 1778. Capt. Mooers of the whaling ship Bedford, first flew the flag in Great Britain, Feb. a, 1783. At length a committee was appointed to definitely fix t h e national standard. This committee called in Capt. Samuel C. Reld of t h e privateer Armtained t h e original thirteen stripes and t h e blue ground of t h e union, but added a s t a r for every state, and this has been t h e device of t h e flag ever since. On t h e admission of a territory as a new state, a new star is added to the field of t h e National flag. In 1301 there were forty-five stars. Third, T h e Symbolism of t h e Flag. In t h e Bible there a r e certain numbers and emblems to which a sacred character Is attached. These are significant in t h e Christian as they were in the Mosaic and t h e Edenic dispensations,- In t h e flag there are numbers and emblems apparently unconsciously adopted. It is remarkable that the numbers a n d emblems of t h e Bible er I h T c l u T c T i r t h ^ i r r a y , t h e tevr-***-***-***-***-***-**^* ; - ^ e t w a four cardinal points, t h e four seasons of t h e year, the four winds of heaven, a n d In Biblical imagery t h e four Living Creatures, t h e four Judgments of God, etc. But t h r e e and four make seven, another sacred number. In t h e Book of Revelation we read of the Seven Candlesticks, t h e Seven Seals, the Seven Trumpets, t h e Seven Stars, t h e Seven Spirits of God, etc. Then t h e six white stripes a r e doubly symbolical. First, six is a sacred number, being a double triad, or Trinity twice repeated, the" emphatic trine and second, white is a unity composed of seven, as white light i s composed of t h e seven prismatic-rays which consist of three primary and four secondary, a remarkabffl corresp«ndence to '.- -; ->.Y'' >»»»»»+»»»<TM»»tt<0lf* MICHIGAN NEWS • • ' V _ What's Doing la All Sections of the State strong, to, devise a n e w fiag: H e -*e- - the- tbree-4e»g~aiid t h e -four -ahoxLxgd. cannot for a moment think that t h e designers of t h e flag consciously selected these numbers and emblems because of their sacred character; or knew that they were sacred at ail, from which we a r e shut up to the conclusion t h a t t h e choice w a s made under a controlling providence. To,begin with: T h e flag as a whole represents unity. In itself this is nothing extraordinary. But then stripes of t h e flag. But these two, six and seven, make another sacred number, thirteen. ' T h e sacredness of thirteen is intensified by looking at it it another way. Three and four multiplied together produce twleve, another sacred number, as t h e twelve tribes, t h e twelve Apostles, the twelve signs of the Zodiac, and such like. But twelve and one make thirteen. There is something more than remarkable in the sacred numbers of the flag that culminate in twelve. They a r e : 14-3 + 4 + 6 + 7 + 1 2 = 33, the exact number of years that Christ lived on the earth, and t h e exact average of human life upon t h e earth, a n d ' the exact number of years in Iuni-sdlar cycles jgLtime, Is all this mere ch work ? But this i s not all. The colors^are sacred also. When God would give outward expression to m the mystic symbolism, of Religion He was careful to express t h e colors of His choice. "Blue and purple and scarlet and fine turned linen"—the colors of t h e American flag—red, white' and blue. Red is t h e sign of redemption, blue of heaven, white of purity and peace.

The Detroit Tribune is bound to still bring Detroit up to the front if advocating improvements can bring it about. The paper still believes in the bridge and entertains strong hopes that one will be built. In a recent issue it advocated an elevated board walk, 50—foot-jyjde, along the river front similar to the one at Atlantic City, N. J.

J That is an Interesting and a sugjgestive proposal which has been made «t Albany—to legislate against the common use and even ownership of the Ingenious device which has been {Invented for silencing the noise of firearms, says New York Tribune. That (device Is said to be so effective as to jmake the discharge of a rifle or a pistol nearly noiseless, without decreasing the lethal effectiveness of the [weapon. It Is easily conceivable that euch an attachment to military fliearins would be of inestimable advantage in wurfure, a noiseless rifle using smokeless powder giving practically no information as to the location of its ,user. But it Is obvious that precisely (the same thing would make a gun or & pistol a far more dangerous tool for |U-< use of assassins. It may, indeed, [be said that there is no legitimate uae tor ie silencing device, save in military doings and In actual war. If we grant that citizens now and then need jto use firearms against burglars, high [waymen and others it should be ob- IVIOUB that the moat desirable and Snoat effective arm for such purposes Ills handieup and hurry. People are gett' \c happier, if they arc not getting ttoller, and the former Is a goov. omen of the latter. They have plenty of (time to work at that that is worth fwhile, or even to play, and it is one of |the wholesome Indications of a healthy [life that people in this country play as hard as they work. But business and pleasure have turned their backs (upon the knocker, setting their faces (to brighter skies. So if you are at louts with Bomebody settle the matter fwith him; do not bother me with It (That la the answer of the world today, a good one, too. Even in sports this wholesome spirit prevails; indeed It dominates there perhaps more than anywhere else. It takes the form of intolerance, it is so pronounced. It Is the spirit of a manly age, a big age land fast, too big and fast to slow up tfor the little fellow. ! Practical Jokes often are In very ;bad taste and not at all as funny as their perpetrators seem to think. Sometimes such jokes Invite legal punishjment. Down in Panama a party of 'would-be humorists circulated the etory that seismologists had predicted (that the country would be visited in |the night by a great shock and that iColon would be wiped out of existence (by a tidal wave. Coming on the heels k>f th x Costa Rlcan cataclysm, this prophecy threw the Ignorant and superstitious into terror, and there was something 01 a panic. Of course the convulsions did not occur. But the iPanama authorities took the matter in ihand and the jokers are now in jail awaiting the result of proceedings that will be brought against them. And if these humorists get a round sentence Ithe general verdict will be that it jserved them right j The war against the white plague fwill never be effective while contagion (is allowed to be freely and wantonly (spread by expectoration in public Jplaces, especially on the streets, where all lungs are exposed to infection. [Not until measures are taken severe (enough to check, if not to abolish, the Jhabit objectionable both to health and [to public decency, will the fight [against tuberculosis be taken seriously. | If the grandsons of the late Marshall IField, the Chicago merchant prince, live to be fifty, they will come into possession of their grandfather's residuary estate, which it is estimated by Ithat time will be worth $200,000,000. }At the ago of fifty the happy heirs will iprobably have outlived their boyish tfolliea, so that they won't waste the tmoney. • There is in the physiological laboratory of the University of Pennsylvania a machine that measures the mental capabilities of any person to whom it la applied.

HARMON IS RENOMINATED DEMOCRATS IN CONVENTION INDORSE OHIO C H I E F E X E C U T I V E . Proposition to Pledge Candidate for United States 8enator Ie Defeated. Dayton, O.—The following resolution, indorsing Gov. Judson Harmon for the presidency in 1912, was adopted by the Ohio Democratic convention after the renomihation of Mr. Harmon for governor by acclamation: "We invite the attention of the nation to Judson Harmon and the work he is doing for Ohio. Two yeans hence it will have been completed, then we can spare him for larger duties. He believes that guilt is personal—is acting on that belief at home and would act upon it in larger fields. A high sense of duty provides his only motives for official actions and his sense of justice alone compels judgment Firmness and strength mark him the man to supplant vacillation and weakness. The nation needs a real man, and the Ohio Democracy here presents and indorses for the presidency in 1912 Judson Harmon." Atlee Pomereue of Canton was nominated for lieutenant governor on. the second ballot and the vote was made unanimous without finishing the roll call. The proposition to Indorse a candidate for United States senator waB defeated by a vote of 840 to 254. Governor Harmon in his address before the convention made a scathing attack on the Payne-Aldrich tariff and declared that the only agency by which the "interests who profit through high tariff laws" can be dislodged is through the Democratic party.

New York.—The wholesale prices for refined oil have been reduced from one and one-half cents to one cent a gallon by the Standard Oil company, making the prevailing price throughout the country now seven and onehalf cents a gallon. The standard controls more than seventy per cent of the refined output of the country and it can readily be seen what such a reduction in price means to the great corporation. Duesseldorf, Germany.—Regular air- Bhip passenger service was established Wednesday for the first time when Count Zeppelin's great craft, the Deutschland, carrying 20 passengers, made the first scheduled trip from Ftiedrichshafen to this city, a distance of 300 miles, in nine hours. The weather was perfect and the motors worked faultlessly. The average speed maintained was approximately 33 miles an hour, but between Friedrichshafen and Stuttgart 124 miles were covered at an average of 41 miles an hour. The best Bpeed for one hour was 43½ miles. Count Zeppelin was at the helm when the Deutschland left at Friedrichshafen at 3 a. m. and sailed away on the trip that was to mark an epoch In aviation. The passengers were several directors of the Hamburg-American Steamship company and the German Airship Stock company, Joint owners of the" dirigible balloon, and guests. They occupied the mahoganywalled cabin between the gondolas, from the windows of which tuey viewed scenery as the aerial car swept along.

MISS ROOSEVELT NOT TO WED Hsr Father Characterizes 8tory of Her Engagement as "Scandalous Infamy of a Scoundrel." New York.—When former President Theodore Roosevelt motored to town from Oyster Bay he was not in the best of humor.

NEW INQUIRY TO BE MADE Federal Judge Landis Sustains Demurrers on Tsghnlcal Grounds and Orders Special Grand Jury for July 14 in Same Breath. Chicago.—The indictment against the National Packing company and its ten sudsidlary concerns charging them with conspiracy to restrain trade in violation of the Sherman anti-trust law, was knocked out Thursday when Judge Keneshaw M. Landls in the United States district court sustained the demurrer filed against the indictment by the so-called beef trust A special venire of seventy-flve men was ordered called for July 14. From this venire a grand Jury will be drawn and a second investigation of the packing companies begun. In his decision sustaining the demurrer to the government indictment Judge Landis said: "The most painstaking search of this Indictment fails to disclose the presence of a charge that during the statutory period the defendants have engaged In, or had anything to do with interstate commerce, or that they done anything having any effect upon such commerce, and the court is not clothed with authority to supply, entirely by inference, the complete omission of such a fundamental element of the offense. "This fatal weakness might have been obviated by Including the charge, had the evidence warranted it, that the defendants, or their respective officers or agents, did something, as, for instance, fixed prices, controlled output, divided territory, or the Ufaw which effected a restraint of - interstate commerce being carried on within the three years' period. v "The general averment that the defendants engaged In a combination In restraint of interstate trade Is, of course, a mere conclusion, and therefore insufficient. The demurrer must be sustained." The indictment, which was knocked out by the packers' demurrer, was drawn by Oliver E. Pagln, assistant attorney general, who was sent to Chicago from Washington. Investigation into the affairs of the so-called beef trust was announced from the department of Justice at Washington on January 21. On January 24 Judge Kenesaw M. Landis summoned the grand Jury before him and in a statement declared that it was he that started the investigation by notifying the district attorney of his intention of so doing on January 20. He declared that certain "governmental functionaries" at Washington took it upon themselves to claim credit for the investigation. Washington.—The attorney general, in view of reports sent him while the caBe of the National Packing company was being argued in Chicago, anticipated that Judge Landis would sustain the demurrer.S) The department of Justice has been In no wise dismayed by the action of the Judge and will proceed immediately to draw another indictment for presentment to the grand Jury. CHARLTON CONFESSES CRIME Fugitive From Lake Como, Italy, la Arrested as He Steps From Liner In New York. New York.—The mystery of the fiendish murder of Mrs. Mary Scott Castle Charlton, the fascinating American woman, whose body was found Jammed in a trunk In Lake Como, Italy, on June 10, was cleared up Thursday when Porter Charlton, her husband, was arrested after he had stepped from the steamer Princess Irene at Hoboken. In a cold-blooded confession Charlton calmly admitted that he had killed his bride of three months after they had quarreled bitterly. She waa accustomed to flying into insane fits of rage, he said, and used to revile him with what he called "terrible language." Charlton's temper got beyond his control during their quarrel the night of the murder, he said, and he struck her with a wooden mallet as she sat upon the side of her bed. He thought his wife was dead, BO he packed her body Into the trunk and wheeled It out to Lake Como, where he threw It from the pier. Charlton was amazed when told by the Hoboken police that the woman died in the trunk. Charlton at first denied his Identity, but on being given the "third degree" admitted that he was the husband of Mrs. Charlton. While Charlton was being "sweated" he became infuriated and, drawing a revolver, tried to shoot Chief of Police Hayes. He was disarmed quickly and a few minutes later confessed the crime.

New York.—Colonel Roosevelt has been overwhelmed by the letters and telegrams awaiting him at Oyster Bay and at his office with the Outlook. Thousands of letters have accumulated and more are arriving daily. Many of them are friendly greetings, more contain political advice and not a few are from old friends with whom the colonel has been corresponding. It may Interest the writers to know that the great mass of this correspondence will never reach Roosevelt's eye. Some of it may be seen by persons employed to look after It but it is not really believed that all the letters will be read. "I would be glad if you make It known," said the colonel to the newspaper men Monday, "that the volume of correspondence is so great that I cannot give it my personal attention. It will be a kindness for well disposed strangers to refrain from writing me or sending me telegrams.

C. HcClunr * Co.. UK. 8 Y N 0 P S I 5 . The Story opens with the IntroductiQn of John Stephens, adventurer, a M U A H - chu»ett* man marooned by authorities at Valparaiso, Chile. Being Interested in mining operations in Bolivia; he was denounced by Chile as an Insurrectionist and as a consequence was hiding;. At his hotel his attention was attracted by an Englishman and a young woman. Stephens rescued the young woman from a drunken officer. He was thanked by her. Admiral of the Peruvian navy confronted Stephens, told him that war had been declared between Chile and Peru and offered him the office of captain. He desired that that night the Esmeralda, a Chilean vessel, should be captured. Stephens accepted the commission. Stephens met a motley crew, to which he was assigned. He gave them final instructions. They boarded the vessel. They successfully captured the vessel supposed to be the Esmeralda, through strategy. Capt. Stephens gave directions for the departure of the craft. He entered the cabin and discovered the English woman and her maid. Stephens quickly learned the wrong vessel had been captured. It was Lord Darlington's private yacht, the lord's wife and maid being aboard. He explained the situation to hqr ladyship. ^Then First Mate Tutrfe laid bare the plot, saying that the Sea Queen had been taken In order to go to the Antarctic circle. Tuttle VxnlHitiPd that on "a former voyage he had learned that ths Donna Isabel was lost in 1753. He had found It frosen In a huge case of tpe on an island and contained mudh gold. Stephens consented to be the captain of the expedition. He told Lady Darlington. She was greatly alarmed, but expressed confidence In him. The Sea Queen encountered a vessel in -the fog. Stephens attempted to communicate. This caused a fierce struggle and he was overcome. Tuttle finally squaring the situation. Then the Sea Queen headed south again. Under Tuttle'a guidance the vessel made progress toward Its goal. De Nova, the mate, told Stephens that he believed Tuttle, now acting as skipper, Insane because of his queer actions. Stephens was awakened by crashing of glass. He saw Tuttle In theXgrip of a spasm of religious mania and overcame* him. The sailor upon regaining his senses was taken 111. Tuttle committed suicide by shooting. Upon vote of the crew Stephens assumed the leadership and the men decided to continue the treasure hunt, the islands being supposed to be r>nly 200 miles distant. Tuttle was burled in the sea, Lady Darlington pronouncing the service. Stephens awaking from sleep saw the'ghost, supposed to have formed the basis for Tuttle'H religious mania. Upon advice of Lady Darlington, Stephens Btarted to probe the ghost. He came upon Lieut. Sanchez, the drunken officer he had humbled In Chile. He found that at Sanchez' Inspiration, Engineer McKnlght played "ghost" to scare the men Into giving up the quest. Stephens announced that the Sea Queen was at the spot where Tuttle's quest was supposed to be. The crew was anxious to go on In further search. De Nova and Stephanything but gold. I tell you it Is ootf the treasure, but our live* we've gotfto t a v ^ , The lee 1B peeling off the •ides, and the ship U taking water like a sieve. We are going to be driven back to the long-boat, and bow much of this heavy stuff can we transport in her? I know It's mighty tough, lads, bt«t we might as well face things as they are." I expected opposition, but not such a wild storm of curses and execrations as greeted these words. All sense of sea discipline vanished, even De Nova joining in the outcry. I remained, planted across the box, waiting for the bedlam to cease, uncertain how I had best attempt to restore them to their senses. Cole decided the matter by rushing forward like an enraged bull, throwing me aside with a heave pf his shoulder, the next inutant burying hiB hands in the coins. That the fellow was out of his head was evident enough—mad as a March hare— but I could not hesitate because of that. Those others were on the verge; all they needed for open revolt was leadership, example, and I caught up a chair and laid the blubbering negro on the deck, pieces-of-eight flying in every direction as he fell. "Unless it's a tight you want, stand back, the whole of you!" I threatened, the broken chair utill In my hauds. "We may be able to take this cheat, or a part of it, with us, but there is going to be no more digging done down below. De Nova who are you with in this row—the meu or me?" "By gar, it makes me mad to give up all sat monies." "Well, get mad! you'll have to give it up just the same. Don't be a fool, man. You can see this for yourself; you're a aailor; It would require a year to tunnel through that Ice with the tools we've got, and look at the hull under us. Why, you can see the list of the deck even here in the cabin, and the feel of her when she drops intbelr arms and bare htm back to one of the state-rooms aft. Kelly came out again and returned with a pannikin of water. I bent down and closed the lid of the chest. The live of us tramped out on deck. It was, Indeed, a rare day for that season of the year and in that ocean, the sky overhead pate blue and cloudless, the wide aea stirred merely by the gentlest swell, t o * slight breeze steady, and barely firm, enough, to hold*. the rotten canvas stiff. There was even sufficient heat in the-sun's rays to moisten the ioe along the decks "I tMBk it only fair to ten you tha> I'm sure there is bad luck In every peso of it." The men gave my croaking prophecy no second thought, but went trotting aft, chattering together like a parcel of boys. C H A P T E R X X V I I I . _ _ ing in the south that seemed to threat where the chill of the wind d|d n o t 4 e n cnange. I observed just before son. ens conquered them In a fist fight. Lady Darlington thanked him. The Sea Queen started northward. She was wrecked in a fog. Stephens, De Nova, Lady Darlington and her maid being among those to set out in a life boat. Ten were rescued. Stephens saw only one chance in a thousand for life. Lady Darlington confessed her love to Stephens and he did likewise. Lady Darlington told her life story; how she had been bartered for a title, her yearning for absent love. She revealed herself as the school chum of Stephens' sister. She expressed a wish to die In the sea rather than face her former friends and go back to the old life. A ship was sighted. The craft proved to be a derelict. They boarded her. She was frozen tight with hundreds of years of Ice. The vessel was the Donna Isabel, lost In 1753, 126 years previous. The frozen bodies of the former crew were removed. They road the log of the Isabel, which told how the Spaniards had died from cold, one by one. Lady Darlington sang to prevent the men from becoming moody. • The ere*- commenced the hunt for treasure. They found the Iron chest, said to contain a part of 3,000,000 pesos, firmly Imbedded In fee. Lady Darlington expressed the belief thnt it would never benefit the men. for she said the Donna Isabel would never reach port. The men got a lust to* gold. "Unless It's a Fight You Want, Stand Back, the Whole of Y o u ! " C H A P T E R XXVII—Continued. "No, sir, but they'll be there." "Oh, yes, no doubt they'll be there, "V but the only way we could ever get - ^ them out would be to run this hooker ashore in some mild climate and let the ice melt. It%s plain enough to Bee what has happened. The Donna Isabel sailed in ballast, these chests be lug about the only cargo she carried. -•- Tfcey shifted in the heavy seas, and the Lord only knows where they are now. Anyway, they are safe beyond the reach of your Ice cleaver." Thfly stared into each, others' faces, the disagreeable truth slowly pene- { tratlng their minds. Kelly spoke, his voice trembling: "Then why the hell, sir, couldn't we do just what you said?" "What! run her ashore?—simply because, my lad, that shore happens to be a thousand miles away, and I doubt If this wreck keeps afloat three days longer." Their excited faces told of Incredulity, of a suspicion that I was playing with them, and I went on swiftly: "You fellows have bean so crasy the last two days you haven't thought of to a hollow is enough to make a seaman sick. Which is worth most, mate, those yellow boys or the little girl yonder?" He looked at Celeste, white-faced, the tears staining her cheeks, her eyes glowing like two .coals, and all the fierce passion of resistance seemed to desert his countenance. II § glance dropped to the deck, returning to my face. "By gar, If you put it zat way, monsieur, zen I choose the lady, sure. But ze sing I want, is both of 'em." "No doubt; but. you have sense enough to realize that, you can't have both. So I count you with me. Now, how about, you, Johnson?" The big, hairy seaman, sober-faced and grave-eyed, glanced about, on his mates and straightened up. "I'm he:re to obey orders, sir," he said slowly. "I've allers been poor, an* I reckon the Lord don't, mean me to ever git rich." I held out. my hand, deeply touched by the sterling honesty of the reply. "You've got something worth more than money, Bill, and that's manhood. You stand the acid. Shake hands, mate." He responded awkwardly enough, having received more cuffs than praise during his rough sea life, yet the expression in the mild blue eyes gave m e confidence that. I had touched the right, chord. I surveyed the others— McKnlght leaning on the cleaver, redfaced and scowling, Sanchez, Kelly and Dade back of him, the negro still groaning on the deck. "Dade, come here." The fellow shuffled over toward me, as spineless as a jeily-flsh. "Now, Kelly, you and Sanches lay Cole out in a bunk and dress his head. All he needs is a bandage and plenty of cold water. When you get done with that Job come on deck and I'll find you another. McKnlght, drop that cleaver and come along with us." They did not like it; but with De Nova, Johnson and Dade standing behind me, they realized the usolessness of revolt. Their hesitation and growling curses irritated me none the less "Jump, you fellows, unless you want fKi same medicine Cole Just took." The two men Mftes the nesro ia strike, and the s w e e p of the horizon extended farther than w e had eeen for weeks. The beauty of the day w o u l d have put n e w heart and life UUo all o f ua but for the miserable wreck undeft foot. The very glare of^the sunlight seemed to reveal with new vividness how close the end was. Light as the aea ran, the ice-laden bow of the Donna Isabel ploughed deeply under,, every crest bursting in white foam through the break in the port bulwarks, the list in the deck so steep we made our way forward with difficulty along the slippery surface. Our rate of progress had become so slow as to leave only the barest ripple in the wake. Clambering over into the fore chains I pointed out to the men how the sea was encroaching on the bulging aide. They stared at the evidence gravely, each comprehending clearly the dread meaning, yet no one spoke for a minute. "I reckon you was right, sir," admitted Johnson, finally. 'The old hooker Is goin' down." De Nova peered along the slippery deck, gleaming in the sun, moodily, but said nothing until he looked up and caught my eyes. "W'at you do, monsieur?" "I mean to hold on as long as It is safe," I replied, "because the cabin gives shelter to the women. We all know what the open boat means, and we'll put that off until the last possible moment. We are not making much progress, it's true; but still, every mile helps, and, if this weather will only hold, the wreck may keep afloat for several days yet, but we'll get everything fixed for a quick departure." Kelly and Sanchez appeared in the cabin door, and I called to them to join us. "Now, lads, let's make use of what daylight we've got left. This weather is likely to change any minute. Three of you lower that jib, and get out the canvas belonging to the long-boat. Piece the jib up-with any old stuff you can find that will stand a light wind. De Nova, you take charge of that job. Dade, you'd better run back to the tiller, and hold her steady as the jib comes down, Johnson and I will see that the long-boat is sound, stocked, and ready for launching," We made a thorough Job of It, overhauling the boat from stem to stern, and ending by rigging up block and tackle for hoisting her, when loaded, over the bulwarks. We lashed the Donna Isabel's helm again, and dispatched Dade into the cabin after supplies. The greater portion of the stores brought from the Sea Queen, more especially the canned goods, remained intact, and we packed these away snugly in the stern lockers, adding whatever we could find that remained eatable among the frozen stores in the lazarette. Altogether we thus amassed a sufficient supply. We rolled up all the extra blankets, shoving them under tfce seats, and saw that serviceable spars and oars were safely stowed and lashed. It was growing dusk before these matters had all been attended to, and I finally stepped out of the boat. The men were massed in a body on the deck, and the moment. I saw them I understood they had been discussing the situation. De Nova spoke: "Monsieur," he questioned, "how much in American money would be in ze chest?" "I don't know, of course, but just for a guess, perhaps $100,000—maybe more." "An' zare be only ze ten of us. To divide It up make, maybe, ten t'ouaand dollar for each. Was it not so?" "Why, yes, or even more than that, for I will cheerfully waive my share, and can pledge that Lady Darlington will do the same. But. what of It?" "Zat fine lot monies for sailor-man," he said, eagerly. "An' w'y not have it? Anyhow, w'y not try to save it? Ze long-boat Is built .vo hoi' 25 peoples, an' we only ten. Zen w'y not take ze gol'? It eat not'lng, it drink not'ing, an' if It weight too much, zen we t'row It overboard. But w'y not try carry It, ze hundred t'ousand dollar?" There was no good reason why we shouldn't; besides, the very possibility of preserving even that share of the treasure would prove an inspiration to the men. I looked about Into their anxious faces, feeling myself some measure of their excitement. "That will be all right, lads," I said gladly. "You've earned it fair enough, and we'll start with it anyhow.

There had been a hotly contested football game between the Steam Roll ers of the Benjamin Franklin school and the Avalanches of the George Washington school. After the game was over and the contestants had returned to their various homes one of the heroes of the winning team complained of a feeling of soreness in the lower part of his neck. "I didn't feel it until just now," he said; "but It hurts like sixty!" His father examined it. It began to swell, and was very sore to the touch "I believe your collar bone is broken, my boy," said his father. A surgeon was hastily summoned, and made an examination. "Yes," he said, "the bone is fractured. How did it happen, Walter? Do you remember anything about it?" "Why, yes," answered the boy. "I remember that when I tackled Skinny Morgan I fell on top of him, and I heard something crack, but I thought it was his collar bone."—Youth's Companion. An Optical Illusion. Did you ever try to see through your hand? By following these directions you may at least make yourself believe you are looking right through the palm. Out of a piece of pasteboard about five inches square roll a tube. Have one end just large enough to fit around the eye, and the other a little smaller. Take the tube between the thumb and fingers of the right hand; put the larger end to your eye, and press your left hand against the smaller end. Keep both eyes open. Objects beyond the left hand will be plainly visible, and there will appear to be a hole through the center of the palm. It is the uncovered left eye which is actually doing all the seeing, but so far as appearances go, it will seem as If the right eye were seeing, right straight through the left hand. No, Dog! Reared in the strict school of "Yes, sir!" and "No, ma'am!" addressed without thought of servility to all elders and betters, I find this a season of rare courtesy and scant civility. Well do I remember that awesome scene at my father's table when a stout and rebellious little sister, seething with disappointment over Borne denied dainty, answered "No!" to a well meant proffer of a less desirable dish. "No, dog? or No, cat?" my father Inquired with ominous calm. "No, dog!" the sturdy lass recklessly replied. I quake even now at the thought of the breathless pause which followed, and draw a veil over the painful aftermath.— Appleton's. Had All the Symptoms.

Mr. Markey has for years been connected with Duplex JPrinting Press Co. of Battle Creek and tbe paper had this to say of the business: Colonel Eugene Lawrence Markey, sales manager of the Duplex Printing Press company, has been spending the week in the east, principally in Nev\ York City, where the New Duplex rotary is now running daily on the regular editions of the Evening World. Colonel Markey, who is considered one of the best printing press salesmen in the business, if not indeed the most successful one of all, states tbat the factory has a quarter sf a million dollars worth of orders on band and tbat the success of the new rotary press exceeds ail expectations. T h e E l e c t r i c L»?3ht P l a n t The past two weeks as noted in the DISPATCH, the Elextric Light Plant of this place has been improved by the addition of more than twice as much room, the addition being of cement blocks, the same as tbe first building. Tbe new pare will be used as an office and tbe switch board will be removed from tbe engine room. There will also be a large store room and probably another smaller engine and dynamo will be installed to show what can be done with small power. Preparations are being made to install a pumping system and it is expected that sometime in the future a public water works system will l>e -farted in tbe manner that the liyiit plant was established two years ago.

C. L. CAMPBELL, Commissioner crt tbe Township of Patnam, County of Livingston. J a n e 21st, 1910. Last Thursday evening occured the annual commencement exercises of the P. H. S, when seven pupils graduated with honors and received their diplomas which means the closing o! their school days here at least and tbe entering the field of general activities to help keep the world moving. A light rairi just at evening served to clear the air and make it more pleasant to attend the affair. There was a crood attendance present and all were satisfied tbat the finishing of the grades in the Pinckney High School means something besides sport, from the manner in which each member of the class handled their subject. Each member had not only passed their standings in the school but had taken the teachers examination previously and had standings that would have given them third arrade certificates. The exercises were exceptionly finf and passed off without a slip or break from salutatory to valedictory. Prof. McDougall in a few well chosen and appropriate remarks, presents the d i p l o n ^ as a reward for the perseverance of the pupils. Rev. Fr. Cornerfoxd delivered a very short and interesting address that was mum appreciated and the advice giyen was excellent. It is too early to learn what the different members of the class will do in the future months, but some we understand will teach and others will go away to college while still others will enter at once into the duties of life. Whatever each may do we extend them hearty congratulations in their graduation, and best wishes for their future. REMEDY FOR RHEUMATISM Lumbago fSblatloa.Qout, Hou* rml0§a.

Very fine fruit and large yields can be secured from tomatoes by setting posts and running horizontal wires similar to the grape trellis. PLANTING THE LATE CABBAGE Place Four or Five 8eeda in Hill and When High Enough Clean Out AM But Strongest. (By MILLER PURVIS.) I always plant the seed of my late cabbage where I want plants to stand. ' I put the land in the best possible condition, mark, It off, in rows three feet apart and plant four or five seeds In a place where I want the cabbage to grow. When the plants come up I let them get about as large as they would be If I were .going to transplant them, then 1 pull oat alt but the strongest one in each bunch. This allows the plant to grow from the start without any setback and the heads are larger than they would be had the plants been transplanted. 1 do not sow the seed until late in June and have raised good cabbages the seed for which was planted after early potatoes had been dug and the land smoothed down. Potatoes make an excellent first crop where late cabbages are to be grown. Even if the plants are to be transplanted they may be set between the potato rows before the potatoes are dug. Digging the potatoes works the soil deeply and makes the best possible coadltion for the growth of the cabbages. TUBER COVERBfl AND RIDGER Useful Implement That Greatly Facilitate!

ICE BOX MADE Of CONCRETE Useful Material tJsed In Construction of Refrigerators—Detailed ln» N strtictlons for Building. Many farmers are using concrete for the making of walks, fence pasta and stock tanks, but this article describe* a new use for this valuable material— the construction of refrigerators from concrete mixture. • "*{ In building this refrtgeratar forma of dressed plank are used, Make the joints of the forma as tlgbi aa poa-i Going to Buy a Farm? Don't break your back trying to get hold of a big farm. Too many farmers are land poor. Mr. Cityman, if you are thinking of buying a farm be sure your wife 1s more in love with the country than you are. The secret of SUCCCSB is correct information secured in advance. It is a great mistake to buy a farm far away from a good market If you must go in debt for land or machinery be sure you can earn twice as much BB will be necessary to pay the mortgage. i Cutting Alfalfa. Alfalfa should be carefully noticed and promptly cut when in the proper stage. For the best hay it should be cut when about one-third is in bloom. If harvest is deferred too long the stems become woody, the leaves turn yellow and the second crop is apt to be injured. The alfalfa crop is very valuable and much care should be given to cutting and curing the hay. Those who have plenty of alfalfe —OeelaH/ fortunate this year. Interior View of Box* slble so as to leave a smooth surface on the finished work. Make the forms of the size you require your refrigerator, but the wall should never be less than three inches thick, writes Thomas M. Clsel, In Farm World. For doors, a frame of 2 by 4 set and Imbedded In the concrete walls, with a tight fitting door of plank, three double, Jamba with a facing of felt or rubber, forms almost an air-tight box. A wood partition separate*,the Icebox from the storage closet Through this wall Is an oval opening 1 by 2 feet Through this the cold air passes, while the water from the melting Ice never reaches the storage closet, but is drawn through an open tap through the bottom of the lea box. Ono thing i s favor of this refrigerator is the ice box on the floor. No lifting i s required to put in heavy cakes of ice as is the ease when the Ice box is in the top of the refrigerator. The smooth, concrete walls are easy . jft3Q. • ' •**a» i jjjj Exterior View. to keep clean, and do not absorb odors like wood, nor rust out like tin. About one-half the ice will be saved with these refrigerators, and water from dampness does not form and drop on the contents, as with other kinds. Safe-rollers or large casters can be molded into the floor of the refrigerator, making the moving of the box much easier. When forming the wall, brackets should be molded In where shelving ts wanted. The Interior should be coated with a pure cement mixture and worked to a finished surface. Shelving can be plaoed to suit the builder, bat should not cross the cold air opening. Concrete refrigerators are much cheaper than the factory kind and give better service when properly constructed. A Good Cistern. Make the cistern not leas than IS feet deep, 10 feet across and Jug shape. Put cement on the brick wall and when dry give the whole surface a coat of boiled oil and yellow ocher paint, adding a little Japan dryer. After it is dry let the water In until about' half full. Leave for a few days then pump this out to take away the taste of the paint. Your cistern will never leak, the water will not become hard by coming in contact with the cement The oil paint makes the cement wall as hard as glass. Potato Diggers in Maine. Over four thousand potato diggers are used in the state of Maine alone to harvest the crop. If these were all hooked together wlta a j e a m of horses to each it would make a procession 15 miles long. Vegetable Matter In Garden. If your garden bakes badly after heavy rains It lacks vegetable matter. To correct this barnyard manure should be liberally applied and^organic matter turned under. ' Good vegetables cannot be grown on soil-that bakes after every hard rain. , . —__^—^^ n Weeds Among Onlans. A florist living in Klrkwood, Mo., writes that he gets the start of the weeds in his onion patch by "mixing in Rome radish seed when sowing the onions. The quick-growing radishes mark the rows before the- o*>Ions appear, thus enabling him to free the ground of weeds by cultivating, without danger to the onions.

The two collaborators had a clear Idea of the articles of which the Declaration was to consist, for there had been prolonged discussions la committee, of which careful notes were taken. The little sub-committee of two men met and conferred together, and Jefferson asked Adams to taXe the written memoranda to his lodgings and there prepare the draft But Adams, self-effaclngly, Insisted that the laborious honor should fall to his colleague. 'You are a Virginian," said Adams, "and I am a Massachusetts man. You are a southerner and I am from the north; I have been so obnoxious for my early and constant zeal In promoting the measure that any draft of mine would undergo a more severe scrutiny and criticism In congress than phis late In the afternoon of JaJy L It was necessary to get Rodney hack to independence hall by July 4, the day appointed for taking the vote upon the adoption of the declaration. All night, all day he rode at top speed; and Rodney Is supposed to have started on the return Journey In the evening of the second. That ride of Rodney's deserves to go down in history alongside of Paul Revere's and Philip Sheridan's. In default of missing detail the imagination must provide the picture of "the tall, gaunt spectre of a man, half-masked and riding like a demon, urging his steed onward through the night with whip and spur, along a road abounding in pitfalls, with black xnlleB separating one warm, yellow cabin light from the next What was he thinking of as he rode onward? Not of the pain of the cancer, slowly eating away his countenance and sapping his vitality; not of the risk he ran, a solitary horseman, of being waylaid and robbed or murdered upon the lonely journey. He heeded not the hunger and the sleeplessness; he was thinking only of the fact that his vote would turn the day for Delaware; Delaware, though a llt- Famous Old Independence Hall. one of your composition. And finally —and that would be reason enough If there were no other—I have a great opinion of the elegance of your pen and none at all of my own." Whereupon, bowing deeply and with protestations of mutual regard, the patriots went their several ways, Jefferson with the manuscript under his arm. And in a day or two they met again and "conn'd the paper over." "I was delighted with Its high tone," Adams wrote In 1822 to Timothy Pickering. But to the part containing the denunciation of King George he took exception. "I thought the expression too passionate and too much like scolding for so grave and solemn a document" Nevertheless, he had no amendment to suggest and the draft of the declaration was put before the committee of five just as Jefferson had prepared i t The final debate In congress, in the committee of the whole, upon the adoption, of the Declaration of Independence began at nine o'clock on -^ Monday, July 1. On that day Pennsyl- ^ TaVnia. seven of whose delegates were p r e s e t voted against adoption. The vote fot Delaware, having two delegates present was divided. Thereupon McKean of Delaware, who had voted affirmatively, wrote a fctic letter to the absent Delaware 1 ^%^aitgate, Caesar Rodney, imploring Mil to come and cast his vote, and Uufs turn the scale for Delaware, for it was highly probable that if Delaware sUported the declaration Pennsylvania would follow suit Rodney at the time was 80 miles away, at Dover, at one or the other of his farms, Byfleld and Poplar Grove. ' He suffered tortures from the cancer, which, starting on his nose, had spread all over one side of his face, so that he had to wear a green silk shield to hide th# disfigurement; it was of this chronic affliction that he died. A contemporary chronicle describes him as wan animated skeleton—Indeed, all spirit, without corporeal integument" McKean's messenger left Failadeltie state, might influence Pennsylvania, and so the vote of the colonies would be unanimous for a declaration that would immortalize the men who made and signed it, and enfranchise the people of the 13 colonies and their descendants. Next day, Thursday, July 4, as the members were assembling at the state house door, a rider, booted and spurred and covered with the dust of nightand- day travel, dismounted in their midst, and when, a little later, Caesar Rodney rose in his place, still breathing hard, and said, "1 vote for independence," the result was that the vot« of Delaware was cast in favor of the declaration, Pennsylvania, by three of her five delegates present, supported Delaware's action, and thus by the ride of Rodney the unanimous vote of the colonies (with the solitary and temporary exception of New York) was that day secured for the Magna Charts of our American liberties. "It was two o'clock in the afternoon," Lossing tells us, "when the final decision was announced by Sec fetary Thomson. When the secretary sat down a deep silence pervaded that august assembly. Thousands of anxious citizens had gathered in the streets. From the hour when congress convened in the morning the old bellman had been in the steeple. He placed a boy at the door below to give him notice when the announcement should be made. As hour succeeded hour, the graybeard shook hi« head, and said, 'They will never do it! They will never do it!" Suddenly a lotid shout came up from below, and' there stood the blue-eyed boy. clapping his hands and shouting 'Ring! ring!' Grasping the iron tongue of the old bell, backward and forward he hurled it a hundred times, its loud voice proclaiming 'Liberty throughout all the' land, unto all the inhabitants thereof.' The excited multitude in the streets responded with loud acclamations, and with cannon peats, bonfires and illuminations the patriots held glorious carnival that night In the quiet city of Penn." rORN PLANTING IS OVtft THAT CANADIAN TRIP 8HOUUD NOW BE TAKEN. If you had Intended going to Can* ada for the purpose of purchasing land on which to establish a home and accompanying some land company, whose holdings you proposed to look over or to go up on your own account to select one hundred and sixty acres of land free, you should delay no longer. Corn-planting Is over, your wheat crop Is well ahead, and you have a few weeks' time before you are required In the fields again. Now make your Intended trip. Reports at hand show that the crop prospects In Canada were never better than they are today. The cool weather has not affected the crop, but If anything, It has been a benefit There has been plenty of moisture and those who have had their land properly prepared look upon this year as likely to be one of the best they have had. A great many are going up this season who expect to pay two or three dollars an acre more than they were asked to pay last year. Others who wish to homestead are prepared to go farther from the line of railway than would have been necessary last year. Still It is worth it. So it will be with you. Next year lands will be higher-priced and homesteadB less accessible. There is a wonderful tide of immigration to Central Canada now. It Is expected that one hundred and fifty thousand new settlers from the United States will be numbered by the end of the present year, an increase of fifty per cent over last year. In addition to this there will be upwards of one hundred thousand from the old country, which does not include those who may come from the northern countries of the Continent. These all Intend to settle upon the land. The reader does not require an answer to the questions, ''Why do they do it?" "Why are they going there in such large numbers?" Western Canada is no longer an experiment. The fact that one hundred and fifty million bushels of wheat were raised there last year as against ninety-five millions the year previous, shows that the tiller of the soil in Central Canada is making money and it is safe to say that he is making more money,than can be made anywhere else on the Continent in the growing of grains. He gets good prices, he has a sure and a heavy crop, he enjoys splendid railway privileges, and he has also the advantages of schools and churches and such other social life as may be found anywhere. It is difficult to say what district is the best. Some are preferred to others because there are friends already established. The Grand Trunk Pacific, on its way across the Continent, Is opening up a splendid tract of land, which is being taken up rapidly. The other railways —the Canadian Padiflc and Canadian Northern are extending branch lines into parts inaccessible a couple of years ago. With a perfect network of railways covering a large area of the agricultural lands it is not difficult to secure a location. Any agent of the Canadian Government will be pleased to render you assistance by advice and suggestion, and a good plan is to write or call upon him. The Government has located these agents at convenient points throughout the States, and their offices are well equipped with a full supply of maps and literature* Never do anything that involves secrecy or the want of candor, or it may lead to dark methods of Inquiry by your neighbor.—Judge Willis.

What Was Missing. Dr. Watson (Ian Maclaren) used to tell a .story about his trip to the Holy Laud, to which he had been looking forward for a number of years with pleasurable anticipation. As he was nonring the center of historic Palestine he met nn American who was making all haste to get away. After .such greetings as two English speaking men meeting in a foreign country might exchange t h e American asked Dr. Watson where h e was going. "To Jerusalem," was the reply. "Jerusalem!" exclaimed t h e American in tones of unfeigned disgust. "You don't want to go there. I've just come away. It's a slow town. Why, there isn't a single daily newspaper in the whole place!" The Flag at Half Mast. The custom of showing the flag a t half mast originated from the w a y a t sea of showing the pre-eminence one ship had over the other in time of warfare. The vanquished always had to lower its flag, while the victor's would he raised as high as possible In exultation. To lower a ting is a n a c t of submission or betokens respect to a superior or is a signal of distress. T h e hoisting of a flag half mast high came to b e used, therefore, as a slj?n of mourning and respect. Not E n o u g h - t o Go A r o u n d .

I Ammencement Exercises 3^The rapid flight of time brings ooce again the season of flowers and sunshine. Just about this time, too, there is another kind of flower which blooms throughout the land, a flower which arouses all the latent enthusiasm of the people. It is the day of graduation when young men and young women in every city, village and hamlet are launched upon life's ocean. The class of six which were graduated from the Pinckney high school were hondred by perhaps the largest gathering of interested friends which the opera house has held in some years, apon the occasion of their commencement exercises last Thursday evening. The stage was tastefully decorated under the direction of Mrs. J.P. Doyle assisted by the Seniors. The decorations consisted of red, white and blue bunting draped in each a way as to make the large stage1 assume less severe proportions. The front of the stage was banked with ferns and roses. A library table on which stood a bouquet of the class flowers, American Roses, was placed in the center of the stage platform. About this were arranged rooking chairs in which the members of the class could be comfortably seated, instead of in the straight chairs which are usually used on SQch occasions. The program was a very iuterestiog one. The musical part con* eiating of an excellently played piano solo by Miss Sadie Harris and three pleasing vocal soloes by Mrs. H. D. Brown, Miss Florence Kice and Miss Helen S. Dunne. Claude H. Kennedy delivered the salutatory in a masterly manner. Two orations, "Our Horizon" by Madge H. Cook and 'The Merits of Peace" by Alger J. Hall were well received by the large audience. Daane Lavey in the Class Prophecy exposed the f nture of his class-mates in a style which caused mnoh merriment. Madeleine Moran delivered the Valedictory, the highest honor which can be given to a graduate, in a fitting manner. The exercises" were closed, after the presentation of diplomas by Snpt J. P. Doyle, with a few appropriate remarks by Rev. Fr. Coyle. The class of 1915 has entered "Life" and may each member be in later years, found "Rowing, Not Drifting" in accordance with their class motto, which was emblazoned in shining letters across the front of the stage wheron their ^graduation exercises took place.

Gordon Gregg 1B called upon In Leghorn by Hornby, the yacht Lola's owner, and dining aboard with him and his friend, Hylton Chater, accidentally sees a torn photograph of a young girl. That night the consul**, safe is robbed. The police find that Hornby is a fraud and the Lola's name a false one. Gregg visits Capt Jack Dumford of the marines aboard his vessel. Dumford knows, but will not reveal, the mystery of the Lola. "It concerns a woman." In London Gregg la trapped nearly to his death by a former servant, Olinto. Visiting in Dumfries Gregg, meets Muriel Leithcourt Hornby appears and Muriel Introduces him as Martin Woodroffe. her father's friend. Gregg finds that she is engaged to Woodroffe. Gregg sees a copy of the torn photograph on the Lola and finds that the young girl is Muriel's friend. Woodroffe dia&ppears. Gregg discovers the body of a murdered woman in Rannoch wood. The body disappears and in Its place is found the body of Oilnto. Gregg talks to the police but conceals his own knowledge of the woman. Muriel calls secretly on Gregg and tells him that she la certain that a woman as well as a man has been murdered. They Bearch R&nnoch wood together, and find the body of the woman. Gregg recognises her as Armida, Olinto's wife. Gregg tells the police, but when they go to the wood the body has disappeared. In London Gregg meets Olinto, alive and well. Failing to get any clue from Olinto, Gregg traces the young girl of the torn photograph. CHAPTER VIII—Continued. "Well, the last I received only a fortnight ago. If you will wait a moment I will go and get It It was so strange that I haven't destroyed it." And she went out, and I heard by the the frou-frou of her skirts that she was ascending the stairs. After five minutes of breathless anxiety she rejoined me, and handing me the letter to read, said: "It is not in her handwriting—I wonder why?" The paper was of foreign make, with blue lines ruled in squares. Written in a hand thai was evidently foreign, fer the mistakes in the orthography were many, was the following curious communication: My Dear Lydla: Perhaps you may never get this letter— the last I shall ever be able to send you. Indeed. I run great risks In sending It. Ah! you do not know the awful disaster that has happened to me, all the terrors and the tortures I endure. But no one can assist me, and I am now looking forward to the time when it will all be over. Do you recollect our old peaceful days in the garden at Chichester? I think of them always, always, and compare that sweet peace of the past with my own terrible sufferings of today. Ah, how I wish I might see you once again; how that I might feel your hand upon my brow, and hear your words of hope and encouragement! But happiness is now debarred from me, and I am only sinking to the grave under this slow torture of body and of soul. "This will pass through many hands before it reaches the post. If, however. It ever does get dispatchedTand you receive It, will you do me one last favor—a favor to an unfortunate girt who Is friendless and helpless, and who will no longer trouble the world? It la this: Take this letter to London, and call upon Mr. Martin Woodroffe at 18 Cork street. Piccadilly. Show him my letter, and tell him from me that through It all I have kept my promise, and that the secret Is still safe. He will understand—and also know why I cannot write this with my own aswd. If he Is abroad, keep It until he returns. It is all I ask of you, Lydla, and I know that If this reaches you, you will not refuse me. Ton have been my only friend" and confidante, but I now bid yon farewell, for the .unknown beckons me, and from the grave-1 cannot write. Again farewell, and for ever. Tour loving and affectionate friend, ft'liMA, "A very strange letter, is it not?" remarked the girl at my aide. "I cant make it out Ton see there is no address, hut the postmark to Russian. She is evidently in Russia-" "In Finland,** I said. Examining the stamp and making out the post town to bo Abo.

"floor Bbsa, yoa eon. speaks a her Wrkr of sesae sear**. Mr. Gragf,~ smy rible secret—a secret which her ancle, Baron Oberg, is desirous of learning. I know she holds him in deadly t e a r - she is in terror that she may inadvertently betray to him the truth!" CHAPTER IX. 8trsnge Disclosures Are Made. The strange letter of Elma Heath, combined with what Lydla Moreton had told me, aroused within me a determination to investigate the mystery. From the moment I had landed from the Lola on that hot, breathless night at Leghorn. mystery had crowded upon mystery until it was all bewildering. Had it not been for the mystery of It all—and mystery ever arouses the human curiosity—I should have given up trying to get at the truth. Yet as a man with some leisure, and knowing by that letter of Elma Heath's that she was in sore distress, I redoubled my efforts to ascertain the reason of it all. On leaving Leghorn 1 had given up all hope of tracing the mysterious yachtsman and had left the matter in the hands of the Italian police. But, without any effort on my own part, I seemed to have been drawn into a veritable network of strange Incidents, all "It Is Not in Her Handwriting—I Wonder Whyr „ ~~~iv of which combined to form the- most complete and remarkable enigma ever presented in life* Those September days were foil of anxiety for me. Alone and unaided X was trying to solve one of the greatest of problems, plunged as I was in a veritable sea of mystery. I wanted to see Muriel Leithcourt, and to question her further regarding Elma Heath. Therefore again I left Boston and. traveling through the night, took my seat at the breakfast table at Greenlaw next morning. Sir George, who was sitting aloneit not being my aunf s habit to appear early—welcomed me, and than m his bluff manner sniffed and exclaimed: "Nlce goings on up at Rannoch! Have yoa heard of them 7" "No. Whatr I cried breathlessly, staring at him. "Well, it's a very fanny story* and there are a doaen deferent distorted versions of tt," he said. "Bat. from what I can father the true facta are these: About seven o'clock the night before last as Letthoonrt and his bonne parry were dressing for dinner, a telegram arrived* Mrs. Lolleoourt It and at oaes went off Into her bestead, m a slipped off eia evening aad pot Into an old bine a few things into a first she refused, but for her father's sake was Induced to prepare to accompany him. Of course, the guests were in Ignorance of all this. The brougham was ordered to & ready in Jbej&ble yard and not to go round/ while Mrs. LeUhcourt's maid tried to bring the lady back to her senses. Leithcourt himself, it seemed, rushed hither and thither, seizing the Jewel cases of his wife and daughter and whatever valuables he could place his hand upon, while the mother and daughter were putting on their things. As he rushed down the main staircase to the library, where his check book and some ready cash were locked in the safe, he met a stranger who had just been admitted and shown into the room. Leithcourt closed the door and faced him. What afterward transpired, however, is a mystery, for two hours later, after he and the two women had escaped, leaving the house party to their own diversions, the stranger was found locked In a large cupboard and insensible. The sensation was a tremendous one. Cowan, the doctor, was called, and declared that the stranger had been drugged and was suffering from some narcotic. The servant who admitted him declared that the man had said he had an appointment with his master and that no card was necessary. He. however, gave the name of Chater." "Chater!" I cried, starting up. "Are you certain of that name?" "1 only know what Cowan told me," was my uncle's reply. "But do you know htm?" "Not at all. Only I've heard that name before," I said. "I knew a man out in Italy of the same name. But where Is the visitor now?" "In the hospital at Dumfries. They took him there in preference to leaving him alone at Rannoch." "Alone?" "Of course. Everyone has left, now the host and hostess have slipped off without saying good-by. Scandalous affair, isn't it? But, my boy, you'll remember that I always said I didn't like those people. There's something mysterious about them, I feel certain. That telegram gave them warning of the visit of the man Chater, depend upon it, and for some reason they're afraid of him. It would be interesting to know what transpired between the two men in the library. And these are people who've been taken up by everybody— mere adventurers, I should call them!" And old Sir George sniffed again at thought of such scandal happening in the neighborhood. "If Gilrae must let Rannoch, then why in the name of Fortune doesn't he let it to respectable folk and not to the first fellow who answers his advertisement in the Field? It's simply disgraceful!" "Certainly it is a most extraordinary story," I declared. "Leithcourt evidently wished to escape from his visitor, and that's why he drugged him." "Why he poisoned him, you mean. Cowan says the fellow is poisoned, but that he'll probably recover. He is already conscious, I hear." I resolved to call on the doctor, who happened to be well known to me, and obtain further particulars. Therefore at eleven o'clock I drove into Dumfries and entered his consulting room. He was a spare, short, fair man, a trifle bald, and when I was shown in he welcomed me warmly. Bpeaklng with his pronounced Galloway accent "Well, it Is a very mysterious case, Mr. Gregg/' he said, after J had told him the object ofmy visit 'The gentleman is still at the hospital, and I have to keep him very quiet He was poisoned without a doubt and has had a very narrow escape of his life. The poTIcTgot wind of the affair and; Mackenxie called to Question him. BuThe refused to make any statement what* ever, apparently treating the affair very lightly. The police, however, are mystified as to the reason of Mr. Leithcourt's sudden flight and are very anxious to get at the bottom of the curious affair." "Naturally. And more especially after the tragedy up in Rannoch wood a short time ago," I said. "That's Just it" said the doctor, removing his pince-nes and rubbing them. "Mackenzie seems to suspect some connection between Leithoourt's sodden disappearance and that mysterious affair. It seems very evident that the telegram was a warning to Leithcourt of the man Chafer's intention of calling, and that the last-named was shown In Just at the moment when the fugitive waa on the point of leaving." Knowing aB that I did, I was not surprised. Letthoonrt had undoubtedly taken him unawares, bat knights of inconnection with the two mysteries of the wood." "The first mystery—that of the man —proves to be a double mystery," I paid? •• ^--^^^^'vSii^eaj^'2,^ "How? Explain it" "¥?& ta* *Mter Olinto Bantlnl U alive and well in London." "What!" he gasped, starting up. "Then he is not the person you Identified him to be?" "No. But he waa masquerading as Santinl—made up to resemble him, I mean, even to the mole upon his face." "But you identified him positively?" "When a person is dead it is very easy to mistake countenances. Death alters the countenance so very much." '"That's true," he said reflectively. "But if the man we've buried is not the Italian, then tbe mystery is considerably increased. Why was the real man's wife here?" "And where has her body been concealed? That's the question." "Again a mystery. We have made a thorough search for four days, without discovering any trace of i t Quite confidentially, I'm wondering If this man Chater knows anything. It is curious, to say the least, that the Leithcourts should have fled so hurriedly on this man's appearance. But have you actually seen Olinto Santinl?" "Yes, and have spoken with him." "I sent up to London asking that inquiries should be made at the restaurant in Bayswater, but up to the present I have received no report" "I have chatted with Olinto. His wife has mysteriously disappeared, but he is in ignorance that she is dead." "There is widespread conspiracy here, depend upon it, Mr. Gregg. It will be an interesting case when we My nest visit waa to Markentie, tor I had to watt nearly aa he waa absent la "Ah. Mr. Gregg!" he cried gladly, aa he e a s e in to find me seated In a ohair Leithcourt Closed the Door, and Faced H i m . j. get to the bottom of it all. I only wish this fellow Chater would tell us the reason he called upon Leithcourt" "What does he say?" "Merely that he has no wish to prosecute, and that he has no statemeat to make^, ..--^ 3 *-•-•»" "Cant you compel him to say something?" I asked. ."No, } cafl't That's the kernel difficulty!)! it If' he don't choose' to speak, then we must still remain in ignorance, although I feel confident that he knows something of the strange affair up in the wood." And although I was silent I shared the Scotch detective's belief. The afternoon was chill and wet as I climbed the hill to Greenlaw. The sudden disappearance of the tenants of Rannoch was, I found, on everyone's tongue in Dumfries. In the smoke room of the railway hotel three men were discussing it with many grimaces and sinister hints, and the talkative young woman behind the bar asked me my opinion of the strange goings-on up at the castle I decided that the man who had smoked and chatted with me so affably on that hot breathless* night in the Mediterranean must remain in ignorance of my presence, or of my knowledge. Therefore I stayed for a week at Greenlaw with eyes and ears open, yet exercising ear* that the patient in the hospital should be unaware of my presence. The inquiry into the death of the charter of {unidentified man in Rannoch wood had bean resumed and a verdict istained of wfltful snrder against some person unknown, whfle of the seeond ertma the pnhttc had no knowledge, for tbe London and discharged all the late tenant's servants, keeping on only his own. Ann Cameron, a housemaid, was one of these, and it was she whom I met when entering by the servants' On questioning her, 1 found her most willing to describe how she was in the corridor outside the young mistress' room when Mr. Leithcourt dashed along in breathless haste with the telegram in his hand. She heard him ory. "Look at this! Read it, MurieL We must go. Put on your things at once, my dear. Never mind about luggage. Every minute lost is of consequence. What!" he cried a moment later. "You wont go? You'll stay here—stay here and face them? Good heavens! girl, are you mad? Boat you know what this means? It means that the secret is out—the secret is out you hear! We must fly!" The woman told me that she die* tinctiy heard Miss Muriel sobbing, while her father walked up and down the room speaking rapidly in a low tone. Then he came out again and returned to his dressing room, while Miss Muriel presumably changed from her evening gown into a dark traveling dress. "Did she say anything to you?" I inquired. "Only that they were called away suddenly, sir. But" the domestic added, "the young lady was very pale and agitated, and we all knew that something terrible had happened. Mrs. Leithcourt gave orders that nothing was to be told to the guests, who dined alone, believing that their host and hostess had gone down to the village to see an old man who was dying. That was the story we told them. sir." "And in the meantime the Leithcourts were in the express going to Carlisle?" "Yes, sir. They say in Dumfries that the police telegraphed after them, but they had reached Carlisle and evidently changed there, and so got away." By the administration of a Judicious tip I was allowed to go up to Miss Muriel's room, an elegantly furnished little chamber In the front of the flne old place, with a deep old-fashioned window commanding a magnificent view across the broad Nithsdale. The room had been tidied by the maids, but allowed to remain just as she had left it. I advanced to the window, in which was set the large dressing table with its big swing mirror and silver-topped bottles, and on gating out saw, to my surprise, It waa the only window which gave a view of that corner of Rannoch wood where the double tragedy had taken place. Indeed, any person standing at the spot would have a clear view of that one distant window while out of sight of all the rest. A light might be placed there at night as a signal, for instance; or by day a towel might be hung from the window as though to dry and yet could be plainly seen at that distance. Another object in the room also attracted my attention—a pair of long field glasses. Had she used these to keep watch upon that spot? I took them up and focused them upon the boundary of the wood, flnd» ing that I could distinguish everything quite plainly. "That's where they found the man who was murdered," explained the servant who still stood in the doorway. -.-.-,--- ..._- .x.~--:------*8Ssasss "I know," I replied. "I was just trying the gjasses." Tjien I put them down, and on turning saw upon the mantel shelf a small, bright red candle shade, which I took in my hand. It was made, I fogog> electric table lampT6*1 "Miss Muriel was very fond of a light" explained the young woman;. and as I held it I wondered If that light had ever been placed upon the toilet table and the blind drawn up— whether it had ever been used as a warning of danger? As I expressed a desire to see the young lady's boudoir, the maid Cameron took me down, to the luxurious little room where, the first moment I entered, one fact struck me as liar. The picture of Elma Heath no longer there. The photograph had been taken from its frame and tn tts place was the portrait of a broad browed, full-bearded man te a Irs alga military uniform—a picture that, being soiled and faded, had iManUi been placed there to ftU the frame.

On the fourth day of July, 1754, CoX George Washington surrendered an army. It was only a small army, but a fort went with i t He experienced on this occasion his first defeat in war, at the hands of the Preach, Although at that time only twentytwo years of age, he had been placed in command of a small body of troops which was marching toward Fort Duquesne. At a point on the Monongahela river, less than forty miles from his destination, he heard of the approach of a party of French and Indians, sent to Intercept him Accordingly, he fell back to the G r e a t Ideadowa, fifty miles from Cumberland, and hastily erected a stockade, which he called Fort Necessity. With the help of a friendly Indian sachem, Half King, he attacked the French fn their camp at night, killing their commander, Jtfmonville, and taking a number of prisoners. ft- »** tbe first blood *• tbe French ^nd War. days later Fort ssslty was attacked by 1,500 Indians and French under De Villiers, and Washington surrendered on honorable terms. This was on the m.(!IUlng 0 f J u , y 4- H e marched out with his little army of 400 men, drums mating and flags flying, and he and his soldiers returned peaceably to their homes. On the fourth day of July, 1846, the Independence of California was declared. There was at that time In California —as yet of course a part of Mexico— about two hundred Americans, nearly all of them men of exceptional vigor of body and alertness of mind. Of Mexicans there were 6,000, and the aboriginal Indian population numbered perhaps 200,000. Capt. John C. Fremont had been sent to California on an exploring expeditioo a year earlier. He was on his way to Oregon when he was overtaken by an officer sent from Washington with a message ordering him to \rait and to co-operate with the Pacific squadron in case of hostilities With Mexico. The message had been in writing, but the officer was obliged to destroy it while crossing Mexican territory, after committing it to memory. Accordingly Fremont returned to California and took up his headquarters at Sutter's Fort A few days later, June 14, a party of fourteen Americans organized a •mall revolution on their own account, captured Sonoma and declared war against Mexico. Needing a flag and not daring to use that of the United 8tates, they made one, not out of an old lady's petticoat, as has sometimes been alleged, but from a Mexican rebosa or scarf of unbleached muslin a yard wide and five feet long. Along the bottom they sewed a strip of red flannel and in the left hand corner they painted a star In red Ink. The middle of the flat was occupied by a picture of a grixxly bear, beneath which were the words "California Republic." The temporary government thus set up la knov n is history as the Bear Flag aepubllc its banner now ornaments the rooms of the Pioneer society In San Francisco. The grixsly bear was rather crudely drawn, and the Mexicans said it was a pis, call* ing the flag the pis; flag. Meanwhile news had come of the outbreak of war along the Rio Grande and on July 4 Fretnont called a meeting at Sonoma which formally proclaimed the independence of California. He was appointed governor. Soon afterward there came faitsQtgents that Commodore Bloat bad arrived i t Monterey (July 7) and had raised the American flag; also that by Ms Older• Commander Montgomery of the U S. sloop of war Portshad taken possession of 6mWA2,T%fZJZAtfKH too soon, for exactly a week later, July 14, the British man of war Colllngwood, commanded by Sir George Seymour, arrived at Monterey to proclaim British sovereignty. It was thus only by a narrow chance that England did not become the possessor of California, which she had greatly coveted. On the fourth day of July, 1584, two barks which had been sent by Sir Walter Raleigh to discover and annex the American continent north of Florida arrived off the coast Sailing along for 120 miles, they entered the mouth of a river and took formal possession of the country for the queen of England, naming it Virginia. They landed on Roanoke island, afterward occupied by the first English settlement in the new world. This colony, consisting of 110 persons sent out in April, 1585, was abandoned in less than a year, the settlers carrying--nropriated the amount necessary for back with them to Europe the first tobacco and the first potatoes, which latter were planted experimentally on Raleigh's estate not far from Cork, in Ireland. On the fourth day of July, 1754, Benjamin Franklin laid before the commissioners of colonies, at Albany, a plan for a federal constitution, aimed to accomplish a union for defense against French encroachment It was adopted, but afterward was rejected by some of the colonies and by the British government This was exactly twenty-two years before the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Curiously enough, the document was rejected by the colonies because it put too much power Into the hands of the king; and it was vetoed In England because it gave too much power to the assemblies of the colonies. On the fourth day of July, 1770, umbrellas were first Introduced into this country, a shipment of them arriving at the port of Baltimore. They were generally regarded as an absurdity, and it was considered that only foolish and effeminate persona could possibly use them. The massacre of Wyoming valley occurred oa July 4, 177«. In the previous autumn two companies had been raised In the valley and bad been ordered to join General ocmr^irrrzn and destroyed. BuV ler reported taking 227 scalps and five prisoners, the English loss being two white men killed and eight wounded. deeds of cruelty roeity are said to have been ted by the tones on this occasion, and fhe whole valley was left a scene of desolation. But it is not true that women and children were massacred. On the fourth day of July, 1780, continental currency notes were worth two cents on the dollar, and, it was said, "a wagonload of paper money was required to pay for a wagonload of provisions." Nothing could well give a more vivid notion of the desperate situation of the Revolutionary cause at that period. On the Fourth of July, 1828, Thomas Jefferson, third president of the United States and author of the Declaration of Independence, died, aged eighty-three, just fifty years from the date of that historic document. On the same day died John Adams, second president of the United States, aged ninety-one. James Monroe also died on the Fourtff of July, 1831, his age being seventy-three. On the fourth day of July, 1848, the treaty of peace with Mexico was proclaimed at Washington. And on the same day the cornerstone of the Washington monument was laid with great pomp and ceremony. Money for building it had been subscribed by individuals, but the sum thus obtained proved so far inadequate that the structure remained a mere stump, only about one-third its present height, until 1881, when congress ap- • float baring heard of the hostffitftss with jfsiiriii, had sailed Imisnill frees JsTessrlsi for California, ho toft jnasHriaa of the try aad raised the American fli a*S oWWusntfimty.

There was a-similar and even more important ceremony in Washington on July 4, 1851, when President Fillmore Initiated by the laying of a cornerstone the construction of the two great white marble wings of the capt to 1. There was an impressive assemblage of dignitaries and an oration was made by Daniel Webster, then secretary of state. Of special Interest was the presence of a few persons who had witnessed the laying of the first cornerstone of the capitol by Washington on the eighteenth day of September, 1793. On the fourth day of July, 1533, John Fryth, an English preacher, was burned at Smithfield for the heresy of Lutheranlsm. July 4. 1450, was the day on which Jack Cade plundered the city of London or a portion thereof, beheading Baron Say and Sole and murdering several other personages of Importance. Cade had fled from England for some crime; but after serving in the French wars he went back to that country and settled in Kent under the assumed name of Aylmer, marrying a lady of good position. When the men of Sent rose In rebeflkm. in May, 1480, he led them.

In one spot eight English walnut trees were uprooted. The eight formed almost a perfect-circle and the ninth tree, which stood directly in the center, was left standing, although the ground around it shows that the roots were torn loose from the earth. Forty-three mature walnut trees were uprooted in the Phillips grove by the same storm. The twister also lifted the cap from the manhole on top of the Phillips ranch house, and a few milea farther west it passed through a big walnut groove, uprooting every tree in one row and not turning a leaf on any of the others.—New York Sun. seeing Is Believing.

The growth of the crop during-the past week was very satisfactory. Rain (ell In many places during the early part of the week, followed by warmer weather, which has been most beneficial to the grain. Breaking and summer- fallowing were well under way, and conditions generally were most promising. The following reports have been received by the department from the various centers: Denholm—A little rain needed in the northern part to start late grain; remainder of district plenty of moisture. Davidson—Ideal growing weather; a few farmers harrowing grain to conserve moisture by breaking crust formed since last rain. North Battleford to Prince Albert- Good growing weather; crops looking well. Slight damage near North Battleford from cutworms; recent rains oeneflcial. Kindersley—Crops looking fine and prospects good; plenty of moisture, with prospects of more rain. Every slough in this country is full. Prince Albert—Crops in fair condition, though cutworms and light frosts have done damage In some sections. Have had moderate quantity of rain. Owing to prompt marketing of the harvest of 1914, the farmers were enabled to devote more time than usual to cultivation in the autumn, under conditions which were decidedly favorable, and that, combined with the opportunities for soil preparation presented by an early spring this year, has resulted in the seeding of a wheat area estimated at twenty-five per cent greater than last year. Areas sown to oats and flax may be less than last year, because of the concentration upon the cereal in greater demand for export. Wheat seeding was completed eight days earlier than the average, under almost ideal conditions. Alberta. "Prospects excellent. Abundant moisture throughout the province, following rain. Area thirty to thirty-nve per cent greater. Crop generally two weeks earlier." Attention is drawn to the fact that the land has not been in such fine condition to work for years; neither has t there been as much moisture as there was last autumn. This was protected during the winter by a little more than the average snowfall, which remained on the land, not being removed by the warm chinook winds, as is usually the case. There never has been a more optimistic feeling than exists today, judging by the information received from various parts of-the province. We feel justified in saying that the crop never went in under more favorable circumstances; weather splendid and land particularly well worked.

Japanese Irjer^ THE IRIS EASY TO GROW By C. BE8TCHER. Of all plants the most indifferent to all conditions and environments, soils and care, none yields the product that the Iris does, and with high culture it is Just that much more satisfactory for the added attention. In all garden operations one should observe natural conditions of growth, as this with added good care will lead to success. The Germanic type of Iris is, in many ways, an especially desirable plant It is most desirable as a garden flower or for cutting, as they keep especially well in the hot sun. Many people say "Oh, nags, they are so common." However, when they see a collection in good colors they very soon decide differently. Many growers go to far more trouble than is necessary in making preparations for planting many subjects. For all plants we recommend giving the soil a coat of manure in the fall, the fresher the better. Apply it at once several Inches thick—if the soU is very poor, if good give only an inch thickness. When this thaws out rake it so that the fine particles sre taken out Do this several times between now and spring time, so the elements are well incorporated with the soil. 8pade when the ground Is in good shape—if possible, do so before freezing is over, for when spaded so the frost will penetrate It deeply, pulverising it so it is soft and pliable, the plants will do much better. For German Iris, plant the roots deeply; but the bulb should be COTTOUT ferns to be at their best next winter, should be repotted late in the summer. About two inches increase in the diameter of the pot is required. A compost can be secured from the florist or made at home. A good garden aofl mixed with barnyard or commercial fertiliser is all that is needed. Too little of the fertiliser is better than too much, which wffl burn the roota. Broken bits of crockery must be placed oyer the hole in the bottom of the pot. Three inches of flirt la them placed over this and leveled ready for the plant In removing the plant from the oftdhe taken chaf the To avoid this, atitte the sides of the pot lightly bat tnaly with a UoweL A sharp blow em the oawa should cause the son and noot to i s placed at on— hi the new pot and ered very lightly unless planting late in the fall or very early in the spring, when they should be planted about two inches below the soil level. At other times Just barely cover them. When hoeing in the summer it is well not to draw much soil to them, as it is liable to rot them at certain times when they are more subject to this decay than others, when deeply covered with soil; and doubly so after they become larger. All the culture they need is to have the soil kept free from weeds and hoed very lightly or raked just so the crust is broken and kept loose- About November 1, before freesing begins, give them a good hoeing and a light dressing of manure after the hoeing. Plant or divide at any time. The Japan Iris requires much different treatment, while very easily handled when their requirements are understood, yet they are somewhat fickle. The best results are obtained when the soil is very rich, well watered and kept hoed at an times. Never allow weeds to attain any start in their beds as they cannot resist the encroachments of stronggrowing weeds. Plant them deeply so that the crowns are fully three inches below the soil level. Plant very early in the spring, just when the growth is showing or late in October. Water well after doing i t They may be planted at almost any time if the soil is allowed to adhere to the roots and kept well dampened for at least two weeks. In fact, they should never be allowed to become dry. Give them deep hoeing and good mulching of manure during August or September, and hoe it into the sofl thoroughly. Ferns should be planted in early spring or early autumn when not in growth but ma7 be planted in summer 1 if properly pruned "Encaged the rooms for my holiday," he aaM, "because the landlady wrote me that they overlooked a superb garden of 400 acres, richly adorned with where 1 was at Uberty to "Well?"

For two y e a r s I could not stand on my f e e t long at a time and I could not walk two blocks without enduring cutting and drawing pains down my right side which i n c r e a s e d every month, I have been at that time purple in the face and would walk the floor. I could not lie down or sit still sometimes for a day and a night at a time. I was nervous, and had very little appetite, no ambition, melancholy, and often felt as though I had not a friend in the world. After I had tried most every female remedy without success, my mother-in-law advised me to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. I did so and gained in strength every day. I have now no trouble in any way and highly praise your medicine. It advertises itself.' '—Mrs. S. T. HURLEY, Eldon, Missouri Remember, the remedy which did this was Lydia E.

Wilson, Vice- President and Manager of the American Gty Bureau, Chicago for the Feature Address to the Graduating Class. Mr. Wilson is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Wilson, a graduate of Pinckney High School in 1896 and was selected for the feature speech of the occasion on account of being thoroughly conversant with large business methods as now conducted throughout the entire nation. The Lexington, Ky. Leader published the speech in full and it is with great regret that on account of the limited space we cannot do the same. Below is quoted the finale as published in the,Kentucky newspaper.

AN OPEN LETTER TO WOMEN Mrs. Little Tells How She Suffered and How Finally Cured Philadelphia, Pa. - "I was not able to do my housework and had to He down i most of the time and felt bad in my left side. My monthly periods were irregular, sometimes five or seven months apart and when they did appear wouldlaat for two weeks and were very painfuL I was sick for about a year and a half and doctoredbut without I any improvement, A neighbor recommended Lydia E. pinkham's Vegetable Compound to me, and the second day after I started taking it I began to feel better and I kept on taking it for seven months. Now I keep house and perform all my household duties. You can use these facta as you please and I will recommend Vegetable Compound to everyone who suffers as I did.'1 — Mrs. J. S. LITTLE, 8466 Livingston S t , Philadelphia, Pa. How much harder the daily tasks of a woman become when she suffers from such distressing symptomsand weakness as did Mrs. Little. No woman should allow herself to get into such a condition because such troubles may be speedily overcome by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, which for more than forty years has been restoring American women to health. BETTER DEAD Life is a burden when the body is racked with pain. Everything worries and the victim becomes despondent and downhearted. To bring back the sunshine take COLD MEDAL r\ 1 <*» *-i- 'A: *frk- W:\%. printed." So the Fourth of July It is —and ever shall be. Nevertheless, there are other Declarations, and some of them come ipretty near being Declarations of Independence, except that they were not adopted by congress. The truth 4s that independence was in the air for isome time before July 4, 1776. The {leaders preferred to say that they were '"petitioners in arms," even after Lexington and Concord and Bunker Hill, and many of them doubtless had no determination for independence. But the people In many localities were ripe for independence. So it is not to be wondered that some of them made declarations. One of the earliest of these Declarations was that of the people of Mendon, Mass., March 1, 17.73. It speaks for itself, and here it is: "That all men have naturally an equal right to life, liberty and prop: erty. •That all Just and lawful government must originate in the free consent of the people. "That the good, happiness and safety of the people Is the great end of civil government. 5 "That a principle of self preservaitlon, being duly planted by the God of Nature in every human breast, it is necessary, not only to the well-being iof the Individual, but also to the order ipf the universe, as attraction and cohesion are to the preservation of material bodies and the order of the ^natural world. "That a voluntary renunciation of iany power or privileges included In or necessarily connected with a principle of self preservation Is manifestly acting counter to the will of the great Author of Nature, the Supreme Legislator, that a right to liberty and property is absolutely inalienable. 'That the claim of the parliament of Great Britain to the power of legislation for the colonies in all cases whatsoever is abhorrent to the spirit and genius of the British Constitution, to the letter of our charter and to the most obvious principles of reason and to the essential natural rights given us by God Almighty; and, finally, "That the introduction of standing armies in a free country in time of peace, without the consent of the people, is a violation of their rights as •free men." Then there.is the Declaratidn of the people of Banna's Town, May 16, 1775. On that day the men of that portion of the colony of Pennsylvania lying west of Laurel Mountain and embraced In the present limits of the county of Westmoreland, then, and for -long afterwards claimed by Virginia to be within the limits of Augusta (County, in the Old Dominion, assembled at Henna's Town, then the. seat iof Justice, to take counsel on the sltua- (tion, The first two paragraphs of »tbe document adopted are as follows: ( "At a general meeting of the iaat Hanna's Town, on May 16,1775, for taking into consideration the very alarming situation of the country occasioned by the dispute with Great Britain, resolved unanimously, that the parliament of Great Britain by several late acts has declared the inhabitants of Massachusetts Bay to be in rebellion; and the ministry, by endeavoring to enforce said acts, has attempted to reduce the said Inhabitants to a more wretched state of slavery than ever before existed in any country: not content with thus violating their constitutional and chartered privileges, they would strip them of their rights of humanity, exposing their lives to the wanton and unpunishable sport of a licentious soldiery and depriving them of the very means of subsistence. "Resolved, unanimously, That there is no reason to doubt but the same system of tyranny and oppression will, should it meet with success in Massachusetts, be extended to other parts of America; It is therefore become the indispensable duty of every American, of every man who has any love for his country, or any bowels for posterity, by every means which God has put in his power, to resist and oppose the execution of it; that for us we will be ready to oppose it with our lives and fortunes. And the better to enable us to accomplish it we will immediately form ourselves into a military body to consist of companies, to be made up out of the several town4 ships under the following association, which is declared to be the Association of Westmoreland County." And, finally, there is the famous socalled "Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence," adopted at Charlotte, Mecklenburg county, North Carolina, May 20, 1775, of which the first three resolutions are as follows: "Resolved, That whosoever directly or indirectly, abetted, or in any way, form or manner, countenanced the unchartered and dangerous invasion of our rights, as claimed by Great Britain, is an enemy to this country, to America and to the Inherent and inalienable rights of man. "Resolved, That we, the citizens of Mecklenburg county, do hereby dissolve the political bonds which have connected us to the mother country, and hereby absolve ourselves from all' allegiance to the British crown, and abjure all political connection, contact or association with that nation, who has wantonly trampled on our rights and inhumanly shed the blood of Ameiv lean patriots at Lexington. '•Resolved, That .we do hereby declare ourselves a Tree and independent people, and of right ought tcr be a sovereign and self-governing ass* clarion, under the control of no power other than that of our God and the general government of the congress; to the maintenance of which independence we solemnly pledge to each other our mutual co-operation, onr lives, onr fortunes, and our most sacred honor." caTiedTfoTTlay W. ~ Its"~orig1naTW& pose was to pronounce the annulment of all laws and commislons in consequence of the king's address of February declaring the colonies in a state of rebellion;. and to make provision for a temporary form of government "until instructions from the provincial congress regulating the jurisprudence of the province shall provide otherwise, or the legislative body of Great Britain resigns its unjust and arbitrary pretensions with respect to America." In this expectation an elaborate set of resolutions had been prepared. Discussion of these resolutions was interrupted by the arrival of a courier with the news of Lexington. The convention reassembled in a fury of patriotism. It seethed and debated until well into the morning of May 20, when the quoted paragraphs were adopted as a preliminary to the regular business of the convention. It must be admitted that the Meek 1 enburgers did a good job. They organized a provisional central government They sequestered all public and county taxes and all quit rents to the crown and declared traitors all persons who should accept new commissions from the crown or exercise old commissions. And they formed nine military companies for action—when the time should come. Curiously enough, this Mecklenburg Declaration did not become generally known till* 1819, forty-four years later, and then through publication in the Raleigh Register. Its publication caused an enormous stir, and began a controversy that may be said to be yet going on, Inasmuch as some historians still refuse to accept the genuineness of the document. In 1819 Jefferson and John Adams were both old and testy. Adams said, in so many words, that Jefferson evidently had plagiarized. Jefferson angrily retorted that in his belief the document,was spurious. The controversy over the genuineness of the Mecklenburg Declaration immediately became fast and furious. North Carolina finally took a hand in it, and in 1831 its legislature appointed a committee of investigation. This committee reported that the document was genuine. Accordingly, May 20th was made a state holiday, which is celebrated as the "Anniversary' of the Signing of the Mecklenburg Declaration." In 1898 in Charlotte, was dedicated a monument in commemoration of the signing of the Mecklen-. burg Declaration. The historians have been busy all these years, and little by little the case of the Mecklenburgers has been built up, until now it is generally accepted.

Groesbeck has Issued a proclamation calling the legislature for another special session to convene Thursday, June 30, at 1 o'clock, to act upon the soldier bonus legislation. The legislature will be asked to consider several plans to make the bond issue popular. One of these is to make the issue tax exempt, although Representative George Lord, the financial expert of the house, holds the belief that this is beyond the power of the legislature under the constitution. He suggests instead that the rate of interest be raised to 6 per cent, and that a specific tax of onehalf of 1 per cent be imposed. Some of the bankers who have conferred with the state administrative board are insistent that the increased rate be considered. Another proposal is to issue 6 per cent notes for several millions to tide over the present, and to issue the bonds when the market is more favorable. Failing all else, it is Governor Groesbeck's intention to appeal to the public to take up the bonds. It is believed that such a drive would be successful if the bonds were issued in denominations of $50 and upwards instead of $1,000. If the legislature remains in session only two days, the time considered adequate by Governor Groesbeck, the special session will cost about $7,500. If it remains for 10 days, the time Are You Human?

Yet Fifty years ago. odd as it may seem, not one person in 1,000 used a Dentifrice— or even a tooth brush. So to-day, after more than 30 years of persistent publicity of Allen's Foot=Ease, the Antiseptic Powder for the Feet, not many well-turned-out people care to confess, "You know I never have to use a Powder for the Feet!" More than One Million five hundred 'housand pounds of Powder for the Feet were used by our Army and Navy during the war. The reason is this: Incasing and confining the feet in Leather or Canvas Shoes is bound to create friction, more or less. Allen's Foot=Ease removes the friction from the shoes, and freshens the feet. It is this friction which causes smarting, callouses, corns and bunions. You know what friction does to your motor-car axle. Why not remove it from your footwear by Shaking into your Shoes to-day, Allen's Foot= Ease, the cleanly, wholesome, healing. Antiseptic powder? Get the habit, as millions now have it. Jazz Music. Jazz music is simply a return to a more primitive type of music much in vogue among Indians and negroes. The chief characteristic of this class of music is what is known as syncopation, which changes the regular recurrence of accent, and destroys the rhythm. Nearly all savages have this irregular idea of music. When properly treated syncopatlan is very effective, but Its abuse is very objectionable to anyone with any sense of rhythm or to people of musical education. The craze is fast dying out, and is not often heard now outside a fourth-rate picture, house.—Exchange. proportionate to the number of days is due to* a provision that the state must pay mileage of members coming to and returning from sessions, regardless of the length of the sessions. The members receive $5 a day, during special sessions, for the first 20 days that the legislature is technically in session. This includes the period between actual adjournment and the technical final adjournment. Those familiar with legislative custom say that, even though the actual work were completed in the two days considered necessary by the governor, the technical adjournment would probably be delayed 10 days so that the members would receive $60 pay instead of $10.

GARDEN NOTES Plants of l a t e cabbage, cauliflower, a n d celery a r e commonly set during the first two weeks in July. A good distance for p l a n t i n g the late large growing vnrities of cabbage a n d cauliflower is 2 ½ by3V2 feet. The soil should be moist and well p r e p a r e d for planting, otherwise t r a n s - planting from the seed bed into the garden or field may not be successful unless t h e plants are carefully "watered in". White or light colored stalks of celery are secured by blanching, which consists of growing the plants in darkness so t h a t the coloring m a t t e r of the stem is destroyed. Blanching .also makes the stalks more crisp and tender and improves the quality. Each celery is most easily blanched by setting up boards about 12 inches i^^^g.^.^aJ4vsj;.-.,-thje,, QlanJU_-£ach .side..-lit v" < ¥*> Saturday <s?

Commonly the plants arc set six inches apart in rows not less than 3Vu or four feet apart, but vou will find that 5 or even <> feet is better especially for the late "rowing varieties. Chinese cabbage or "celery -cabbage" is best grown JIS a fall crop. Seed should be sown during the latter part of July so that the crop will mature during the cool fall months.

Another winter had lifted Its icy Philip* MacCauley, the captain of the Salvation army In Ithaca, bowed, and then be laughed. "Every one is welcome here," he quoted, coming forward. "Where'd you come from? I've never seen you before." » "I'm staying up Hoghole way," replied Tony. "I ain't been around Ithaca long. This la on awful nice room,-ain't it, huh?" "Yes, very. We like it," replied the young man. "Sit down; don't be in a hurry. I want to talk to you." Tonnibel did sit down but not very comfortably. She was embarrassed in the presence of this handsome young stranger, abashed in the glamor of his uniform, and all the beauty of him. With boyish admiration he was contemplating the sparkle of her gray eyes, shaded by long lashes as ebony black as her hair which hung in ring* lets to her waist. He decided that she was very pretty, and that he liked to have her in the Salvation army quarters. "Can't you stay for meeting this evening?" he asked presently. MWe have singing here." Tony's eyes deepened almost to lustrous black. "Oh, I'd love that!" Then she shook her head. "Nope," she went on, "I got to go home to mummy. She's all alone! Mebbe when my daddy gets back, I'll come some time and sit clean through the night." For an instant the smile stayed about the boy's lips, then gravity settled once more over his earnest young face. "Whjt's done In this placer she "Not quite," answered Philip, startled. "No! Not that." "Then what?" demanded Tony. "What kind of a God do you mean?" "One that is good," explained Philip. "There isn't any God but the one who helps—" "My mummy?" breathed the girl, misty tears shadowing her eyes. "Yes." "Where is he, tV«en?" The words shot forth with such insistence that something within I'hilip MacCauley rose to its demand. "Some one's got to be good to my mother," the girl ran on before he could speak. "She's sick—and lonely. Oh, I've got to do something for her. Where's your helpin* God, mister?" "Right here in this place." said Philip, a strange emotion Sweeping over him. "In fact there *sn't any place where God Is not." "He wouldn't come In a dirty canal boat, would He?" demanded Tony, breathlessly. Astonished at such crudeness, Captain MacCauley shifted himself about so he faced her squarely. Was it pretended ignorance or innocence in the searching gray eyes? Then he decided that troth was stamped on every line of the upturned face. "Of course, everywhere," he exclaimed brokenly. "Why, dear child—" Tony Devon interrupted him swiftly. "Tell me how to manage it," she pleaded. "How can I wheedle your God to the Dirty Mary?" "To the what?" was the question the boy asked in shocked swiftness. "The Dirty Mary," repeated Tony. "My mummy and me live on a canal JifiaL Qnce, gh 2 were •4»»t -Called "Nope, and i squinted 1B every beerhole in Ithaca^' Tony replied, "but— but—but I found out something for you. Listen! There's somebody on this boat besides me, and you—and Gus* sie."' "Who?" came sharply from the woman. She shivered, fearing that the law lay in wait for her absent husband. "Who, brat?" she repeated imploringly. Tonnibel bent over and looked straight into the sad, wan face. "God, just a plain lovin' God!" she replied, her countenance expressing unusual exaltation. "Sit a minute while the tea's makin* good, and I'll tell you." Side by side they sat together en the bunk while with lowered reverent voice the girl told- the story of the Shepherd who had said long ago with infinite pity, "Feed my sheep." "And mummy," the girl continued, leaning her head against her mother's arm, "Darling mummy, that beautiful man said, "Love'd make crooked things straight,' and—and it's so." . A look of unbelief came over Edith Devon's face. "Fiddle," she said in a disgusted voice. "Tony, you ain't a brain In your bean." "I don't need any brains as long as I got this, Edie," the girl replied, lifting the card she held. "Come on, let's say these things over. Here's one that'll keep—well, It'll help keep daddy from beatln' you." Mrs. Devon grasped the girl's arm in sudden frenzy. "You told some one Uriah beats me?" she demanded sharply. "Mebbe I did, and mebbe I didn't," answered Tony, slyly, "but these here words about standln' still and watching Salvation slam good all about will keep pappy's fists up his sleeves. Say It, Edle," she ended. "I won't," said Edith, getting up swiftly. "If there's anything in it, Tony, you can show me by gettin' your daddy back home. Mebbe he's In jail." "Even if he was," retorted the girl, with a wise shake of her head, "lovin' hard could make the coop-doors fly wide open, and daddy'd flop out like a dogfish flops into the* lake.

"With the exception of a little milk toast, which comprised my diet for more than eight weeks, I could not eat anything," said Capt. Geo. W. Womble, residing at 105 Jennings St., Knoxville, Tenn., a highly respected citizen of that city. "I am now able," continued Captain Womble, "after taking two bottles of Tanlac, to eat practically anything. I had a bad form of stomach and intestinal trouble for a long time and for months my condition had been such that I suffered agony. I got so I could not eat the simplest food. I tried doctor after doctor and all kinds of medicine, but nothing that was prescribed for me seemed to do me any good. I had a terrible pain in my breast just over my heart and for weeks and weeks I got no relief. v "I finally got so nervous that I actually dreaded (o see night come, as I could not sleep, and was always so restless that I would rejoice to see daylight come. I was also constipated all of the time. In fact, life seemed a burden and I was so miserable that I was almost on tire verge of despair.

Y., is well called, for to the south, the east, the west, and even to the north where the lake cut sharply around a corner, broad forests stretched their lengths and heights of leaf and bough on miniature mountains. One evening on the western side of the railroad tracks, a girl stood before a small building over which, like ropes of green, draped the branches of a weeping willow tree. This building was different from any of the other habitations near it In that it was well painted, and the door stood open all day. 'Twas a strange little girl that gazed up with searching eagerness at the two lighted signs that had arrested her attention. In her arms she held a diminutive guinea pig, and the way she hugged it close demonstrated her love for it* "THE SALVATION ARMY," she spelled out and thoughtfully considered it ' "Everybody Is welcome here," she read slowly. That meant that anyone could enter If he wanted_to, she decided, and as Tonnibel Devon did want to go In, she softly tiptoed up the steps and peeped Into the room. As there was nobody in sight, she sidled In and looked about "Welcome" was curved in letters of red above a table, and the silent young stranger sighed. She couldn't understand how a girl could be really welcome anywhere. Of course her mother liked her and missed ber when she was away, but Tony knew of no other place where she was really wanted but the canal boat called Mary and Dirty Mary for short, which had been is? home ever since she could re- SMibber. «<31ory be to God In the highest" •mmg In letters of gold across the right wall, and to the left, "Stand Still and See the Salvation of the Lord," kept her attention a little longer. She didn't know what they meant, but the varied colors shining brilliant in the bright light calmed her turbulent spirit and made her happy. She hugged the pig closer, bent ber head and kissed the top of its ear. ' "I guess we're in a church, Gussle," She said aloud, "and you mustn't grunt , or squeal like you do on the Dirty Mary. It's awful nice and quiet ain't i t honey?" "Were you speaking to me?" said a voice from near the door. Tonrfibel Devon struggled to ber feet turned around and saw a young man looking at her. A flame of red rushed over the tanned skin, but because he was smiling and kindly, she smiled back, a dimple coming to life at each corner of her month. "Nope," she flung out to confusion. «1 was talkin' to Gussle-Piglet here. Mebbe her and me. hadn't ought to be here.

Philip swallowed hard. Then slowly and gently he talked to her, trying to make her understand as best he could what he meant by God, Spirit. "And you can help your mother, little— what's your name?" "Tony, just Tonnibel," she mumbled. Then her voice rose and she uttered sharply,' "How tell me how to help my mother." Philip went to the Utar and sorted out a small card. "This," he said, coming back to her, "has happy, loving thoughts written on it If you think these things all the time-^-oh, how they will help both you and your mother." Wonderingly she took It in her fingers. The first thing that met her eyes was a beautiful uplifted face of a man aud in his arms was a little lamb. Underneath the picture was printed, "Feed my sheep," and directly under that were the words, "Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord." Once more her eyes sought the face above, a face wherein lay all the pity and love in the world. Tony Devon caught a glimpse of the lesson he was trying to teach, and when she went out of the Salvation army hall she held within the depths of. her a wonderfully new and utterly strange emotion.

Hundreds of Hindus believe that Rlshts and Sadhus, aged 1,000 years or more, are still alive. They do not care to appear before the public. They are living in some Himalayan caves, practicing yoga.

Do you think you could r "Daddy wouldn't let her," was the reply, and she lifted unfathomable saddened gray eyes to his. "You see when a man owns a woman, and she don't do the things he tells her to, he beats her, huh?" There was mute pleading in her expression as she dr£w back on the bench a little farther away from him. Ah! He might have known that she had been swept along by the relentless tide of brutality. He sighed a little. He had seen enough of ignorant men with their supreme egotism, to know she told the truth. "Your father Is—is—cruel to your mother, then?" he faltered. She remained in deep thought for the space of a few seconds. "A swat or two, mebbe morejfafr't a killln' thing to women folks,*Vaa the response she made confusedly at length.

Woman Suffrage in Wyoming For more than half a century the men of Wyoming have insisted that women deserved the same rights as men. It is now 51 years since the voters of Wyoming, then a territory, first stunned the rest of the world by conferring full suffrage upon women without a preliminary battle on the part of the women themselves, considering it simple fairness. When the men were taken to task they replied that their women folks had , endured the same hardships as themselves and demonstrated equal ability as pioneers. When statehood was applied for in 1890 feeling was so Intense against admitting the territory that congress found itself In an uproar, and the Wyoming legislature was notified that statehood could hardly be possible unless the suffrage clause was eliminated. The legislature replied. "We will remain out of the Union 100 years rather than come In without woman suffrage."—Philadelphia Led* ger.

ORCHARD GLEANINGS GIVE ATTENTION TO SMALL FRUIT An Algerian Falconer. (Prepared by the National Geographic Society, Washington. D. C.) IT WILL surprise many to learn that the art of falconry, or hawking, goes back to the remote and unwritten past. We have many proofs of this in the frescoes and sculptures of the early Egyptians and Persians. And in all the time that has passed since that early day there has never been a total lapse of the art; falconry has in every age been carried on in some part of the world. Reference material is found in books not only of England, Holland, France, Italy, and Spain, but of China, Japan, and Russia, while the sport has been followed from Immemorial time in India and northern Africa. The ancient Greeks apparently knew nothing of falconry, but the Lombards, settling in north Italy about 660. knew of the art, and by 875 it had become a generally known practice throughout western Europe and Saxon England. From that time it thrived, filling an important place In the life of the times. A vast impetus was given to falconry by the returning crusaders, who had become familiar with the methods of the Orient and had brought with them both falcons and trainers. War lords never left their courts without their falconers and a cadge of hawks, to be flown at anything that might be deemed worthy. The gun, of course, delivered a serious blow to the art, as it provided a quick, sure, and inexpensive way or getting meat. Still, the real devotees were never greatly affected by this device, and through the centuries, up to the rebellion in England, and later through the French Revolution on the continent, falconry survived trte, difficulties imposed by the introduction of firearms, the breaking up of the country into small holdings, the reclaiming of large areas of wild land, and other inevitable changes Incident to a multiplying and advancing population. As a general practice, however, falconry In Europe ceased after the great social upheavals mentioned. Its maintenance as a sport since then is attributable in large measure to half a dozen hawking clubs, among which are the Falconers' club, the High Ash club, and the Loo club In Holland. Trying It In America. Within the last twenty years there had been a great renascence of amateur falconry among the English, and some rather successful attempts have been made In America, particularly In the Genesee valley, New York. The great expense of maintaining the birds, due to the scarcity of experienced trainers and catchers, and tl^e difficulties of forwarding so rangy a sport in the settled conditions of most of our eastern country have made it Impossible, however, to achieve any real success in America and the growing sentiment against killing any but a few species of game birds will probably act as a further deterrent Still, there are several common birds which are recognized as game that would make admirable quarry for the peregrine, notably the quail of our Atlantic states and the sharp-tailed grouse of the northern prairies. The native wild goshawk is already th chief problem of all the grouse of our northern wooded section. Of the hundreds of kinds of hawks, only certain ones possess the combination of qualities necessary for this beautiful and romantic sport A hawk must be at once kind and fierce; It must be able to stand the changes of climate of its owner's country; it must be strong enough and swift enough to overtake and strike down its quarry, and intelligent enough to be able to unlearn much of its native knowledge. These qualities are possessed by only about a dosen species, belonging to two groups or genera— the true falcons, of the genus Falco, or long-winged hawks, and the shortwinged group of forest hawks known M "Acciplters." Only two of the latter are used, the goshawk md the European sparrow .hawk. The bird known in America as sparrow hawk is a small falcon which feeds principally on insects and is useless for hunting. Peregrine a Cosmopolite. The peregrine Is the only falcon proper found all over the world. There1 is no other bird with such a cosmopolitan range. It is found on both sides of the equator, throughout the entire world, nearly to the Arctic and Antarctic circles. It is natural, then, that this should be the falcon of falcons and known to all ages of man as a tractable and capable help in his search for food; for falconry was at first a very practical and even sordid pursuit, only later—much later—becoming the sport of the privileged classes. A peculiar set of traditions and an equally picturesque language have become Inseparably attached to the art of falconry ; and it is only fair to the Scotch, who, in their conservatism, have been responsible for the colorful language of golf, to give them credit for preserving the romantic terminology of falconry. It was In Scotland that the art was perpetuated after it had languished over most of Europe. Ancient history Is eloquent with the influence of the noble sport of hawking, the history of medieval Europe Is richly colored with it, Sixteenth and Seventeenth century literature fairly abounds in passages concerning It, and the language of the day was so tinctured with the jargon of the hawkers that it is fair to conclude that, before men had knowledge of gunpowder and the fowling piece, hawking was such a general practice as to be the principal means of obtaining wild game. _ J£alcons are brought into subjection to man's will either by being taken from the nest just before they are able to fly or by being caught wild after they are fully grown and selfsupporting. Those taken from the nest (eyess hawks) are the ones usually trained over most of Europe. Ordinarily they are much gentler and more easily trained, but lack the dash and style of the wild-caught birds known as "haggards." In India and Africa, however, the eyess Is virtually unknown, as the hawks are always trapped adult. The Valkenswaarde Market. In the heyday of the sport, emissaries from the courts of each little duchy and principality gathered at Valkenswaarde after the trapping and bought'for their masters the product of the season's catch. What a picturesque and lively scene these medieval auctions must have been, with knight bidding against knight for the beautiful birds that had been won out of the air and brought into the thraldom of m a n ! The old cult of falcon catching and training has never completely languished at Valkenswaarde, and the family of Mollens has for many generations led in the industry. Indeed, wherever falconry is practiced the Mollens are Known as the most skillful and expert trappers and trainers, and many of the most famous falcons in the history of the sport have come from their able hands. The peregrine, falcon of falcons, Is not as large or as strong as either the gers or the sacre, but combines, with a hardihood unknown to the "exotics," all the qualities that go to make a good hawk—gentleness, teachability, courage, dash, willingness to "wait on" at a great height, and, most important of all, availability; for, as has been said, the peregrine has a world-wide range, and is therefore obtainable In almost any country where men want to use i t In a wild state, were It a common bird anywhere, It would be a very undesirable neighbor, for it preys almost exclusively on birds, and is capable of taking such swift and resourceful game as plover, snipe, and wild fowl. Its common name In America, the duck hawk, is well given, the refer ence being to wild ducks and not tn* tamt bird. Small fruit plants, such as currants, gooseberries, raspberries and blackberries may be grown to perfection in the average back-yard garden in New Jersey. J. H. Clark, assistant professor of pomology at the New Jersey State College of Agriculture, states that the success of these gardens lies In careful cultivating and proper fertilizing. Weeds and grass, he says, use large quantities of water and plant food, and must be hoed and pulled o u t Frequent cultivation not only keeps weeds down, but helps to conserve moisture by forming a mulch of fine dust. A good substitute for cultivation is a layer of strawy material, at least a couple of inches thick after it Is well packed down. The fertilizer question has been more or less tinged with mystery especially to the suburban gardener, but Is in reality very simple. The only three fertilizer materials likely to be needed and the form in which they can be most cheaply purchased, a r e as follows: Nitrate of soda or sulphate of ammonia; acid phosphate; and muriate or sulphate of potash. On the average soil, the following amounts in pounds sufficient for 600 square feet or 100 feet of row, would probably give good results: Nitrate of soda, three pounds; acid phosphate, six pounds, and potash, two pounds. This material should be broadcast in the spring, before the end of May, carebeing taken that the material does not fall on the leaves if the plant hasstarted growth. The same quantity of fertilizing elements bought ready-mixed would undoubtedly be more expensive. Some good fertilizers, which will probably be more expensive than the above, although this depends on local conditions, a r e : Barnyard manure, sheep manure, poultry manure, ground bone, dried blood, and tankage. If poultry manure is used, one bushel would be enough for a 100 to 150-foot row of small fruit plants. Very little fertility will be added by using wood ashes, wool waste or leather scraps. Coal ashes, soot and lime will not enrich the soil, but may Improve its physical condition. Using Bees in Orchard for Best Pollination In using bees in orchards for pollination purposes, it Is advisable to scatter the colonies as uniformly through the orchard as possible. Under favorable conditions the bees will travel a considerable distance to secure nectar. However, In bad weather, the bees do not venture more than 100 to 150 yards from the hive. An apiary placed on one side of the orchard will therefore not furnish as good a distribution as single hives scattered throughout the orchard. The best way, according to the New Jersey College of Agriculture, is to distribute the bees so that the hives will be located not further than 210 feet from each other each way. This spacing will furnish approximately one hive of bees to the acre. In view of the average strength of beehives at this time of year, a smaller number than one hive to the acre would probably be Insufficient in many cases. A hive of bees at blooming time should contain about three quarts of bees, numbering about 15,000 individuals. » ' i • • »"»'* i i 1 1 i 1 1 i i i •*^««-*-*« Horticultural Facts Bridge-grafting at the right time may save girdled trees. • * • Some of our most valuable fmlt trees are also fine ornamentals. • • * The Faith, Hope, and Charity of the home garden, say horticulturists, a r e the ammonia, phosphoric acid, and potash to be found in complete fertilizers. • • • More than 20,000,000 pounds of explosives are used every year by farmers in blasting out stumps and bowlders, making ditches and for other purposes. • • • Plum pudding may be scarce this next Thanksgiving, as many plnm orchards were visited by freezing weather early in April.

An occasional pudding not too rich or heavy or too complicated to prepare will be enjoyed. Apricot Ice.—Take one cupful of corn sirup, two cupfuls of canned or fresh apricots, cook until soft, mash and put through a colander. If the dried fruit Is used cook overnight and cook soft before mashing. Add two tablespoonfuls of lemon juice, a cupful of water, mix well and freeze.

Heat to lukewarm one quart of milk, dissolve one tablet of junket in a tablespoonful of water arid stir into the milk while warm. Add sugar to season, a bit of flavoring and pour into sherbet cups to thicken. Allow the cups to stand in a warm room as the junket will act quicker on the milk. Then when well thickened set on ice to chill. Serve with a spoonful of berries and cream. a bit of Jelly with chopped nuts. A pastry shell previously haked and cooled, filled with crushed berries and sugar and topped with whipped cream, is a dish both pretty and appetizing.

Cook over the heat for ten minutes, add two tablespoonfuls of lemon juice and the grated rind of the lemon, two tablespoonfuls of butter and a generous grating of nutmeg. Dishes From Meat.

Do you know how old It Is? Ask these questions of the average American and he will shake his head. He knows the picture well enough, for he has seen it hundreds of times. Perhaps he grew Op In a home in which a lithographed «opy of It occupied a prominent place. In Fourth of July parades, too, he has seen living reproductions of it, bat further than his ability to recognize it he knows but little of Its origin or of the artist who conceived I t This picture which has stirred the patriotic sentiments of the nation Was first exhibited at the Philadelphia Centennial exposition in 1870. It was the work of a soldier, Archibald M. WUlard, who saw service with the tJnion forces during the Civil war. Willard never drew any other picture Which could compare in popularity With that single effort. I'pon this one •canvas alone rests his fame. Furthermore, the work came dangerously Dear being nothing more than a caricature, to live for brief time and be quickly forgotten. T h e Spirit of 76" never caused a •ensation as a work of art, says the New York World, but achieved its Universal popularity solely through $ts forceful appeal to the valor, manbood, and love of country that is rooted in the heart of every true American citizen. Flag experts criticized It as being historically inaccurate, for the banner used by the colonial soldiers in 1776 had the crosses of Saint George and Saint Andrew in the canton, whereas Willard drew an ensign containing thirteen stars, and this device was not originated until June, 1777. Mr. Willard once said : "My picture was not painted in commemoration of 1776, or 1876, or any other special period in the life of the nation, but AS an expression of the vital and everttvtng spirit of American patriotism." Born August 22, 1836, in Bedford, a small town west of Cleveland, Ohio, Willard showed a fondness for drawing and painting from his boyhood days. His career as an artist did not begin, however, until as late as 1872. At that time he was following his trade In Wellington, Ohio, as a carriage maker, a trade to which he had been apprenticed as a youth. The actual work of constructing coaches did not appeal to him so much as the highly Interesting task of painting the finished product in the elaborate fashion af that day. His skill with the brush was acknowledged by his associates, «nd he would draw little brightly colored sketches on the side of a carriage that frequently would attract the fancy of a prospective buyer. At the suggestion of his employer Willard one day undertook to proface "something cheerful, something comic." This undertaking resulted in Ids first popular picture, brought his work to the attention of Cleveland's leading photographer, and freed hira forever from the labor of wagonmaking. T l u c k Number One" was the title given to this creation, and it succeeded with the public largely because It realistically portrayed childish eagorneoa and action. Wlllard's three children, • their soap-box cart, and their family dog, gave the artist his idea for the sketch. It showed vividly the fOjumntTi' wild ride, trying their %&$ #Z % .:¾. > .¾ #> ,i>3 W // w- / / copy at rs& o^z&JxrAz, ^^A^iTim^ best to maintain their balance in the little wagon tossing this way and that as the dog, to which It was harnessed, was giving chase to a suddenly aroused rabbit. An official of the wagon works liked the picture so well that he wanted It framed, and sent it to Cleveland for that purpose. There It came to the attention of the city's leading art dealer and photographer, James F. Ryder, who immediately classed It as a "find." As soon as the drawing had been framed, Ryder personally carried it back to Wellington to make the acquaintance of the artist. He was somewhat surprised to meet the originator of "Pluck Number One" on the second floor of the wagon shop, but, undaunted, inquired immediately, •'How did the race come out4" Realizing that words could not convey a satisfactory answer, Willard laid aside his overalls, and got busypainting his answer. "Pluck Number Two" was speedily evolved. It showed that the dog had won. The art dealer was quick to capitalize the twin pictures. Chroraos were the fad then, and the dealer had Wlllard's pictures copyrighted with the artist as half owner. Before long ten thousand copies had been sold, convincing Ryder that he had discovered a man of talent. He went ahead planning new ventures for his protege. Leaving Wellington, Willard set up a studio in Cleveland In 1878, For a while he devoted his time to the drawing of cartoons, many of which appeared in the country's leading newspapers. Now for his masterpiece, "The Spirit of 76." About a year before the opening of the exposition celebrating the one hundredth anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, the enterprising Ryder was looking for something that would be appropriate for such an occaslon. Finally It came to him. It was, as he explained it to Willard, "Yankee Doodle—just put Yankee Doodle Into something, the more original the better. Go to It and get It ready before the big show opens.- The first method of treatment which naturally occurred to both men was along the line of the caricatures which they had produced so successfully up to that time. In telling about it afterward* Willard said that "the mention of Yankee Doodle photographed on my mind three things: the flag, the fife, and the drum, and a background naturally presented itself." Wlllard's children had provided the material that inspired his first artistic success in "Pluck Number One." His father was to provide the inspiration for the production of his masterpiece. This aged gentleman had come from Wellington to pose for his son. One day while working on his outline of Yankee Doodle he caught a glint In the older man's eye, and in a flash it was revealed to hira what Yankee Doodle really meant. "I could not go ahead any farther with the burlesque Idea," the artist said. "The real picture pushed everything else aside, and went ahead and painted Itself." Wlllard's father, who thus aided so greatly in the creation of the "Spirit of '76," was a Baptist mmlster, Rev. Daniel Willard. Born in Vermont In 1801, the elder Willard was in his seventy-fourth year when he posed for the central figure In the group < The original flfer was one Hugh Moser, a resident of a small town near Cleveland. Rejected because of his age during the Civil war, he was nevertheless considered essential at all patriotic gatherings In the neighborhood, where his fifing was famous. The drummer boy was posed by Harry K. Devereux, a Cleveland lad. His father, Gen. J. H. Devereux, a prominent railway president, bonght the painting after its showing In Philadelphia, Washington, Boston, and other cities. The general presented it to his native town of Marblehead, Mass., where it was hung in Abbot hall library. «. The picture itself Is eight feet wide and ten feet high. It was begun during 1875 in the studio of Willis Adams in Euclid avenue, Cleveland. It was officially nnveiled at the centennial the next year.

FARM * POULTRY CERTIFIED STOCK BEST FOR CHICKS Persons who buy baby chicks should see to It t h a t they a r e from tested stock, which affords protection against baclliary white diarrhea, advises the New J e r s e y Agricultural Experiment station. Otherwise a great many of the chicks a r e likely either to be dead on arrival or to begin to die soon a f t e r w a r d s . Many times the loss of shipped chicks U said to be caused by chilling, overeating, or early feeding, when in reality it is due to bacillary w h i t e diarrhea. T h e station h a s already tested over 45,000 breeding birds this season and t h e r e are still some to be tested. These birds will probably p r o d u c e over a million chicks, or n e a r l y enough to supply t h e state. F u r t h e r - more, they have been culled for type and egg production, which also m a k e s for better chicks. Bacillary white d i a r r h e a Is t r a n s - mitted to the young chick through t h e egg produced by infected breeding stock. Little can be done if the disease m a k e s its a p p e a r a n c e , as t h e losses usually continue until t h e chicks have outgrown t h e most susceptible period. If only one chick h a s been infected t h r o u g h t h e egg t h i s chick may serve to infect the o t h e r s in the brood. Strict r e g a r d for ganitary m e a s u r e s and t h e feeding of milk products may keep the loss down somewhat. T h e disease is p r e v e n t e d by using h a t c h i n g eggs produced by breeding stock t h a t is free of this infection. Infected birds are detected by m e a n s of a blood test. Those w h o a r e interested in b u y i n g chicks from tested flocks may obtain the n a m e s of o w n e r s of v a r i o u s breeds by writing to t h e E x p e r i m e n t Station, New Brunswick, N.

Chicks Prompted to Eat Dirt by Abnormal Taste It m a y be an abnormal t a s t e in chicks which p r o m p t s them to eat dirt, but clean dirt will do them no h«rm and seems to satisfy a craving.

If t h e practice is to feed on the ground the food quickly becomes foul and m a y be poisonous to the chicks, T h e m o d e r n method w i t h baby chicks is to give all feed from clean boards and w a t e r in vessels t h a t cannot be polluted, and are chick proof.

legislature brought back the old time saloon bar to Michigan14 DijmocraU and 5 Republicans voted for its return We think this is a mistake and hope Gov Murphy will veto this measure At the time repeal was voted upon assurance was given that the old time saloon would never return In its place the beer garden fun Tavern was adopted This plan would have worked, probably, except that about twice as many beer gardens wre licensed as were needed and not much attention was paid to the char acter of many who were given licenses The result was the same widespread disregard of law which characterized

signature The bill to repeal the Teachers Oath failed to pass last week Gov Murphy signed the Diggs bill last week to prevent racial discrimtn ation in hotels and restuarants Th investigation in the United States Senate on tax evasion is lluminating The favorite method of dodging the tax is apparently for individuals to form themselves into a corporation and place their assts in it For instance John Doe may be a millionare but he would have no assets as all of them would be in the name of the John Doe Corporation, In fact it would be the same thing as if Bergen the ventroliquist, placing all of his as sets in the mime of his dummy doll Charlie McCarthy For some time it has Seen generally known that thero was considerable tnx evasion going on Besides the dummy corporation method there are mynorous othcrs Anot her one that is much in use is to operate a farm at a loss and thus gain ex emption on this These methods are perfectly legal but undoubtly laws will be passed to plug these tax

WW The Pinckney Dispatch, Wednesday, June 30, 11137 TRUE Bl THE SUN CHAPTER XIContinued It The sergeant answered the question If bail is furnished and the magistrate will sign his release But hes innocent Cecily cried If that is true, Sergeant McCready said soothingly, youve nothing to worry about It may take a little time We cant have final hearing until we know definitely how badly the girl is hurt Thats all I can tell you, Miss Vaughn Then theres nothing I can do She looked at Jim, her spirits drooping a little You can go home and get some sleep Seep Her chin lifted Im going home and call Father Dont worry, Jim Im not worrying He smiled Goodnight Thank you for coming Goodnight, MacPherson Good night, lad MacPherson pressed Jims hand Well be com ing back tomorrow We certainly will, Cecily said with emphasis Goodnight Goodnight, Jim Jims eyes followed her as she walked through the door It was almost worth being under arrest to have her defend him so spiritedly He seated himself in a hard oak chair, resenting his detention less than he had before Cecily and Mac Pherson came, thinking, with a certain degree of serenity, of the or deal before him Silence filled the room for an interval Sergeant McCready, at the desk, wrote on a long sheet of paper with a scratching pen Officer Kelly dozed behind the sports sec tion of a newspaper Jim lit a cigarette The hands of the roundfaced clock pointed to quarter of five CHAPTER XII You get to bed now, Jamie, Mrs MacPherson said, as Jim finished a heartening midafternoon lunch in the kitchen at the cottage Not just yet, Bessie Jim pushed back his chair and stood wearily erect You must be ready to drop No sleep last night and all those questions this morning It was down right bad manners the way that judge or whatever he was talked to you Official routine, Jim said, smiling to lighten Mrs MacPhersons concern Im going to bed pretty soon Right now Ive something to do Mrs MacPherson sighed Jim went out of the cottage and down the orchard path He had to find Tommy before he could sleep Tom my had not been present at the hearing this morning Cecily had been there, accompanied by Jeremy Clyde The Mac Phersons, too, had been present, Dollys father and stepmother, her brother, Joey, the one who sang, more closely resembling Dolly than any of her family, the same flaxblue eyes and impudent charm Seeing Joey in the mag istrates office this morning had given Jim a bad moment or two The hearing had been less of an ordeal than he had anticipated Ser geant McCready presented a report from the hospital Dollys condition was much the same She had re gained partial consciousness, toward morning only to slip back into unconsciousness again The doctor in charge of the case would not, as yet, make a definite statement The inference seemed to be, Sergeant McCready stated, that the Dolly Dorothy Quinn, how strange that soundedwas in a serious condition as a result of a fractured skull Following the hearing, Jim was detained in the magistrates office until Mr Vaughns lawyer came out from the city and signed the bail bond, acting on authority from Mr Vaughn who had made the arrangements by longdistance Mr Vaughn was returning at once Cecily had told Jim that at the close of the hearing JeremyClyde had been sympathetic He had even seemed to be distressed about his predicament, Jim thought, recalling Jeremys white and shaken look during the brief public interview hed had with Cecily and her guest Mr Vaughn would arrive at Meadowbrook some time about noon tomorrow The matter would be cleared up speedily then But Jim wanted to talk to Tommy Susan was sitting on the steps of the side veranda, a disconsolate little figure, her chin resting on her knees She sprang up when she caught sight of Jim, ran to meet him, flung herself at him impetu ously Whats all this Jim asked holding her off, looking down into the wide hazel eyes upturned to him WU1 they put you in jail Her lips trembled her eyes filled with tears Of course not, Jim said cheerfully What gave you that idea Nora said they would and so dkk Rose Tears spilled down over ht cheeks She held tightly to JinVs arm Neither Nora nor Rose know everything Stop crying, silly Your eyes will be red for the wedding People will think you have haylover I dont want to go to the wedding She pressed closer to him ffl jvast to stay here with you Bq L1DA LARR1MORE 6 Lid Larrboore WNU Service Oh, come now, Jim says coaxingly They cant have the wedding without you Think how dis appointed the bride and groom will be and all the people Im afraid, while Im gone, theyll come and take you away Nonsense Ill bo here when you get hack Truly she asked Certainly Im going to the cottage and sleep for a day and a half Will you bring me some wedding cake She nodded Did they put handcuffs on you, she asked, like in the movies No They treated me very politely Where is Tommy Hes out on the front lawn writing a letter He told me to go away so I think its to a girl I dont care if they do put you in jail, she cried vehemently Ill like you just the same I do like you awfully, Jim Youre a pal, Jim said gently But you must go to the wedding Go up and take a nap The wedding isnt until six Youll have time enough I want to see Tom my Susan went off toward the house, pausing on the veranda steps to call back to Jim Can I come to the cottage after the wedding, she asked, and bring you some cake Ill probably be sleeping You can put it under my pillow He smiled and waved his hand The smile vanished as Jim walked on around the side of the house His prospective interview with Tommy was no smiling matter Tommy was writing at a cardtable set up under the purple beech at the far end of the lawn He glanced up as Jim approached, his face lighting with interest and excitement Hi he called, knocking a box of stationery off the table in the coltlike exuberance of his welcome They let you out all right, didnt they I knew Dad could fix it I knew that even state cops cant put anything over on Dad Jim was amazed He had expected to find Tommy either terrified and evasive or dramatically remorseful and tragic Tommy, he asked gravely, did you take Cecilys car last night The question, obviously, had a staggering effect Did I take it he asked You mean did I Exactly, Jim continued Did you take Dolly driving last night in Cecilys car Me Gosh no, Jim In Tommys startled countenance amazement and passionate protest were convincingly blended I didnt know anything about what happened last night until Cecily told us this morning Gosh, Jim, did you think I ran off and left her when she was hurt I mean youd have to have thought that if ypu thought I did it Noboby would be as low as that Nobody would Somebody did, Jim said Where were you last night Tommys expression altered He slumped down in the chair at the table Oh just around, he said, displaying, for the first time, a sugges tion of the evasion which Jim had expected This is important, Jim said sternly Youve got to tell me I had a date, Tommy mumbled and then in tone of justified indignation, Whats the idea of rib bing me he asked Havent I got a right to have a date if I want to Youre concealing something, Jim said sternly Tommy flushed Well, if youve got to know he said, I had a date with the girl whos visiting Betty Beach Jim was relieved Why did you try to make a mystery of that he asked Tommys hands fidgeted with objects on the table I took her out in the Pierce, he said Now, I suppose youll have to tell Dad What does he expect I cant take a smooth num ber like Carol out in the station wagon I suppose you11 consider it your sacred duty to tell Dad, though, he added expectantly At the moment, Jim said wearily, your taking the Pierce seems relatively unimportant Tommy brightened Shes a smooth number, he said dreamily She went home this morning And youre writing to her already Well, I thought Id better sign her up for the Thanksgiving dance at school She has lots of dates Jim sighed and smiled, amused for the moment v Youre a perennial Romeo, he said I thought youd stopped writing letters to young ladies Carols different Tommy looked down at the table, fitted the cap of a founain pen on and off, his expression sober, a little embarrassed You know, Jim, he said, I dont believe Dolly would have made a fuss about those letters No, Jim said, seeing Dolly with painful vividness for an instant, Dolly sparkling behind the soda bar in the drugstore, Dolly lying on the stretcher in the flooding radiance of the headlights, so small and so still No, he repeated, Dolly wouldnt have made a fuss I think she was just kidding me, Tommy continued I was kidding you, Tommy I thought being uncertain about what she might do, would make you work It was entirely my own idea Well, Ill be Tommy gave indications of exploding with indignation All at once he laughed, instead That was pretty smart, he said I dont mind because Mr Jordan thinks Ill pass the reexams all right and I had money enough on account of working with you to show Carol a pretty good time He roused, momentarily, from his absorption in a new and exciting romance Jim, he asked, who did take Dolly driving in Cecilys car last night I dont know Weariness, an urgent need for sleep, crept over Jim, dulling his senses, confusing him MacPherson has questioned everyone on the place The men have watertight alibis Its possi ble that an outsider might have come in and taken the car Ralph is careless about locking the garage That theory is hardly prob ale, though Dolly is the only one who could tell us and Dolly is con scious only for a moment now and then It would be dangerous to at tempt to question her The matter of greatest importance to all of us I Hd a Date With the Girl Whos Visiting Betty Beach is that Dolly shall have every pos sible chance to get well It was a rotten trick And you thought it was me Tommy said reproachfully Thats what hurts me, Jim Im sorry, old man Jim extended his hand You see I thought of those letters I blamed myself for letting you think the preposter ous thing you didthink Can you forgive me Oh, sure Tommy wrung the hand Jim extended And dont you worry Dad will be here tomorrow Hell find out who did it Dads pretty smart Dont you worry, Jim Im not going to worry Im going to sleep I feel as though Id been hit in the head Jim left Tommy to the composi tion of his letter under the purple beech He walked up and across the lawn, thinking only of getting to bed as quickly as possible Cecily hailed him from the garden Jim saw that Clyde was with her Wait a minute, she called I want to talk to you, Jim She came up to him, a flat basket of asters and cosmos held in the crook of her elbow Jeremy followed her closely These are for the wedding decorations, Cecily said, indicating the flowers I promised Mrs Pat ton to send them over and I forgot them this morning Let somebody else take care of them, Jim said You ought to be getting a nap I know She sighed Im simply dead Ill look like the ghost at the feast Oh well, its a bridesmaids first duty to look less radi ant than the bride I hope you can persuade her to go to bed, Jeremy said with a note of concern in his voice She wont listen to me Jim, surprised at the statement, glanced at Jeremy He had the white and shaken look which Jim had observed that morning at the hearing You look as though you didnt sleep well last night, he said, returning the amiability surprisingly extended And Im completely out How about a nap all around The suggestion had been innocuous, a mere exchange of civilities The words had no underlying motive or purpose Their effect upon Jeremy puzzled Jim for an instant, then tore in a lightning streak through the weariness dulling his senses Clyde I Why hadnt he thought of that The casual remark had brought into Jeremys eyes a sudden expression of terror Have you heard from the hospital since this morning, Jim Cecily asked MacPherson called about an hour ago Did ho imagine it or was Clyde waiting in breathless sus pense for his ftp, Theres no decided change, he continued The physicians in charge of the case are extremely apprehensive Dolly is conscious only now and then Cecily sighed, looked up at Jim with a faint encouraging smile Fa ther will be here in the morning, she said I dread this wedding The morning papers hadnt the story, merely a brief police report I wouldnt worry about that, darling, Jeremy said soothingly The countryside has been too greatly absorbed in the wedding to read papers today Youre completely exhausted, Cecily He took the bas ket from her Youve time enough to sleep for an hour, at least See you again, Fielding Cecily smiled back over her shoulder at Jim as Jeremy, his hand on her arm, led her toward the house Jim watched them go in through the side door, then continued on his way to the cottage, thinking, fit ting fragments together, growing more and more convinced that it was Clyde who had taken Cecilys car last night, that it was he who had left Dollydying perhapsat the side of the road Why hadnt he thought of it before, he asked himself, lying wide awake on his bed, lighting one cigarette after another in sheer nervous excitement as the fragments of the story fitted neatly together and suspicion became certainty Jeremy was angry last night because he had not been included in the festivities which had been arranged for the wedding party He had taken Cecilys car from the garage, had picked Dolly up somewhere and persuaded her to ride with him He might have been drinking That wasnt important Cecily had spoken of Jerrys unreliable driving Or Dolly, herself, alarmed at the speed at which the car had torn along the winding road, might have grabbed the wheel When the car crashed, Jeremy had not been hurt He had probably tried, unsuccessfully, to rouse Dolly, and discovering that they were near the riding academy, had gone there for help Was it Jeremy who had knocked at the door Jim made a concentrated effort to remember precisely what had happened at the moment Hed been aroused The voice which had called had not sounded familiar But then hed been only half awake It might have been Clyde What would Clyde have done if he, Jim, had been awake and had recognized him Since Jim hadnt seen him, Jeremy had taken advantage of the unexpected opportunity to keep him self out of the mess Jim saw, in imagination, Jeremy hiding some where near the office, watching him as he opened the door, as he located, the car in the side road from the fence at the rear of the grounds and set off across the fields Knowing that Jim would find Dolly, hoping, perhaps, that Jim would be held responsible for the accident, Jeremy had walked back to Meadowbrook and gone to bed It all fitted together Why hadnt he thought of it before Because his certainty that Tommy had taken the car had precluded any other theory because, even now that he was sure Jeremy had done it, he couldnt make it seem plausible How did he think he could get away with a thing like that Even if no one had seen him take the car, if no one had seen him all evening, didnt he know that when Dolly regained consciousness the truth would be revealed Or was he hop ing that Dolly would not regain consciousness That was the truth of the matter, of course Jeremy was counting on the possibility of Dolly dying without regaining consciousness, in which case, he would be secure But it wasnt possible, Jim thought No one he knw would do a thing like that Jeremy was terrified His entire future had been at stake He had seen himself in certain danger of losing Cecily, her fathers support, his professional advancement It was possible People were con stantly taking chances equally dishonorable Yes, Clyde had taken Cecilys car But how could he prove it He was fairly certain that no one had suspected Jeremy, the MacPhersons, Cecily Cecily For the first time Jim considered the certain effect upon Cecily of any proof of Jeremys guilt She would be completely crushed He knew that she was terribly in love with him Yes, terribly was the word Recalling hef confidences, recalling the lighted look of happiness shed had when Jeremy first came to Meadow brook, Jim groaned and tossed restlessly on the bed Cecily He recalled her defense of him early this morning in the state troopers headquarters at Chestertown Hed loved her so, then He loved her now He would love her always But he wasnt a hero of romantic fiction He wasnt a Sidney Carton going nobly to the guillotine to insure the happiness of the woman he loved No heroic gesture which he might make would insure Cecilys happiness If when Dolly returned to consciousness, Cecily would know the truth If Dolly died and no suspicion fell upon Jeremy, his own guilty conscience would make impossible any continued happiness in his relation to Ceo ily He hadnt the stamina to live a lie, consistently day after day Sometime he would go to pieces Cecily would know eventually TO BE CONTINUEDy AROUND th HOUSE Items of Interest the Housewife m Preserving BroomSoaking a broom in boiling salt water every two

license plates and stickers, with neither the secretary of State nor any other official authorized to extend this dead I line, is believed by Leon D Case, Secretary of State, to be a step in ad1 vance The present law permits thei Secretary of State to extend the final expiration date to March 1st In addition to Cases desire to call public attention to these two imporant changes in the motor vehicle law, the Secretary of State also points out to the fee of 26c to be collected hereafter for the issuance of stickers or halfyear permits The chargng by the state of this small fee appears to befair and proper, considering the acccmadition represented by a half ynr installment plan for tin purchase of a set of plates The bookeeping, special cosLs represented by the printing and hanllinj of the some million and a half stickers annually is an item which no one shou Id long expect in the state to absorb The collection of a 25c fee will bring in approximately 125,000 annually, it is estimated

was probably as courageous a position as any group of senators ever has taken The other actionby majority of the housewas shot through with the utmost cowardice and selfishness Lately, a group of senators, nearly all Democrats, took their political lives in their hands and delivered to the senate a report from its judiciary committee advising defeat of President Roosevelts proposal to add six new justices of his own choosing to the Supreme court of the United States In my time in Washington, I believe I can say without qualification, there never has been a committee action in the house or sen ate in which the President, as the leader of the dominant party, received such a castigation on a legislative proposal as was given Mr Roosevelt by Democrats who constituted the majority of the senate judiciary committee They did not mince words in any respect Whatever may be the merit of Mr Roosevelts proposal to add six justices of his own choosing to the highest court, the majority report of the judiciary committee left no stone unturned in disclosing objections to the proposal as opponents of the court reorganization scheme see them Almost on the same day that senate Democrats were, in effect, breaking or revolting from the Presidents leadership, the Democratic majority in the house killed off a proposal for new taxes in the District of Columbia that would have resulted in taxing the salaries of representatives and senators and their office staffs They were brazen about it They were not going to vote an income tax upon themselves and they made no effort to conceal their reasons for refusing to accept the recommendations of a special tax subcommittee which was acting for the permanent committee in the house of the District of Columbia The District of Columbia committee, examining the budget for the seat of the federal government, was confronted with a deficit in the district finances and instructed its tax subcommittee to develop new sources of revenue in order that the District of Columbia might not get into debt Among the taxes proposed was a tax on income of residents of the District of Columbia, which is synonymous with Wash ington, and it provided for taxing earnings here whether the person who earned the income was a resi dent of the capital city or not That was too much The majority in the house of representatives just could not take it They voiced their objections openly and, being superior in numbers to those who believed that income in the District of Columbia should be taxed, they forced the tax bill back to the District of Columbia committee for revision Indeed, they went further The line of criticism of an income tax that would touch the sacred salaries of congressmen and senators was such as to have the effect of forcing the committee to bring in a tax bill that would increase the tax on property in the federal area Now, it is a fact that few members of the house and a very small number of senators haye bought residences in Washington They usually live in apartments or hotels or lease homes for the period that congress is in session Consequently, a real estate tax will not concern most of the representatives and senators e e e The indictment brought against the Presidents court plan by the D, senate judiciary coorr nan committee was Report quite unusual in many respects In the first instance, it was approximately fifteen thousand words in length being in that regard prob ably the longest and most comprehensive analysis that any congressional committee ever has made of a piece of legislation Cer tainly, it is the most extensive examination to be included in a committee report in the last quarter of a century Every argument advanced by the administration in support of the plan was picked to pieces and held up to public gaze every possible reason for expansion of the court by the addition of six new justices was scrutinized and denounced and, then, the committee put forth some of its own ideas It applies force to the judiciary the committee said in a sentence that constituted one paragraph and thereby was emphasized The only argument for the increase which survives analysis, the report added, is that congress should enlarge the court so as to make the policies of this administration tfftctivt The bill was found by the seven Democrats and three Republicans who constituted a majority of the senate judiciary committee, to be a needless, futile and utterly dangerous abandonment of constitutional principle It charged that the American system of independence of the courts would be violated and that if the bill were to be enacted into law, political control over the judiciary branch of the government would pass into the hands of the President With the presentation of this terrific attack on the bill to the senate, a second unusual circumstance developed Those Democrats who were opposed to the Presidents proposal decided to go about the job of fighting the measure on the floor in a manner seldom seen in the congress These opponents from the Democratic ranks got together and chose Senator Wheeler of Montana as leader of the Democratic opposition to the Democratic Presi dents court revision program They gave him full authority to act, including the selection of a steering committee, a committee on strat egy, to aid him Thus, in the senate now we have three major leaders Senator Wheeler will speak for the court opposition Senator Robinson of Arkansas as the leader of the Democratic party in the senate will lead the fight for passage of the court bill and Senator McNary of Oregon will head up the Republicans as usual Since all of the Republicans and Independents excepting only Senator La Follette, Progressive, of Wisconsin, are opposed to the court revision plan, Senator McNary and Senator Wheeler are working hand in glove against the regular Democratic lineup headed by Senator Robinson It appears that the President is going to be badly defeated on this piece of legislation, but it is too early to be sure Mr Roosevelt is a powerful figure and he has political knowledge that must be described as remarkable He has with him in the senate some exceedingly able political strategists It is thus a battle of wits Mr Roosevelt has said several times that he will accept no compromises There is a very definite feeling at the Capitol, however, that the President will be glad to have a compromise if he can get one and save the bill from complete wreckage On the other hand, Senator Wheeler and his strategy committee have announced in no uncertain terms that they will defeat the bill or any compromise that is offered Time alone can answer the question of what will come out of the Presidents proposal At this writing, the odds certainly are against the President on the proposition Speaking of taxes and the selfishness that was evident in the house action, as menHunt Tax tioned earlier, Evaders calls to mind the investigation b y the joint house and senate committee that is now under way This committee, made up of five representatives and five senators has begun a search to find out how taxpayers avoid taxes or reduce the amounts they would otherwise have to pay by various trick schemes The committee has been given fifty thousand dollars with whioh to make the investigation and it is receiving able assistance from Under Secretary Roswell Magill and other Treasury experts on taxation Contrary to the outlook when Mr Roosevelt released a vicious attack on tax dodgers and tax avoiders, this committee is getting down to real business and there is every reason to believe it will be able to recommend to congress changes in the law that will stop some of the schemes and tricks to which large taxpayers have resorted I have sat in on a number of the hearings thus far, including the opening session when Secretary Morgenthau made the opening statement and disclosed to the satisfaction of everyone that he was not conversant with the problem at hand Like the President, Mr Mor genthau attempted to place the tax problem confronting the government on moral grounds His state ment did not click with the committee at all With two or three exceptions, the committee members recognized the problem as purely a question of law and Senator Pat Harrison, Democrat of Mississippi, vice chairman, said that there was no point in making the investigation a Roman holiday Therefore, the thing settled down very quickly to an earnest study of cases where men have resorted to various kinds of subterfuges of law, to reduce their tax liability In this connection, it seemed to me that too much credit cannot be given Under Secretary Magill who apparently is anxious to get to the bottom of the problem f Western Newspaper Union r BETSY Flag Wi Made T HE historic incident of the origin of the flag is one of the dramatic stories of Revolutionary days, featuring one of the more colorful women of colonial history, the widow of John Ross, upholsterer, who fell early in the revolution A storehouse of munitions he was guarding exploded Betsy Ross has been pictured as the Florence Nightingale of the Revolution To this brick house at 239 Arch street, Philadelphia, came one day in June, 1776, a committee of Gen George Washington, Col George Ross, uncle of Betsys late husband, and the wealthy Robert Morris, chairman of the secret commission on supplies for the colonial forces They requested Betsy Ross to make the flag according to a design given her by General Washington, and which was officially adopted by the congress the following year The old house is a twoandahalf story structure, 17 feet wide, with but two rooms on the ground floor At the front was the upholstery shop, and in the rear, connected by a hallway, was the sitting room, used as a dining room on gala occasions Beneath this was the basement kitchen, reached by a winding stairs Bedrooms were on the second and dormer floors The living room still has the large fireplace with the white mantel framed with the original blue Dutch tile the room was originally painted blue, as shown by the removal of many coats of paint An inchbyinch study of the building has revealed many changes since the flag incident The front entrance had been shifted from one side of the building to the other a chimney and three fireplaces had been closed up four windows had been made into doors the original floor of the basement kitchen was found ten inches beneath the present brick flooring All of the original building is being carefully preserved Thus it was discovered that six doors with original Lshaped hinges of colonial make remain two sets of colonial shutters, of spliced wood, panelled inside, with authentic hinges were discovered on the rear of the building Two secondstory front win dows and a dormer window were originals even to the small panes of glass Flag Code Provides for Reverence to the Emblem TPHE following extract from the flag code, providing for reverence to the national emblem, adopt ed by the National Flag Conferences held in Washington in 1923 and 1924, gives the form of the salute During the ceremony of hoisting or lowering the flag or when the flag is passing in a parade or in a re view, all persons present should face the flag, stand at attention and salute Those present in uniform should render the right hand salute When not in uniform, men should remove the headdress with the right hand and hold it at the left shoulder, the hand being over the heart Women should salute
