It is alleged it will be pos •fciblo to raise the price equivalent to the tariff benelit. One feature will be ;n trust bank from which farmers can *liorrow money, as needed, giving •crops as security. The scheme was conceived by Prof. Clarence Miller, :superintendent of schools at Frankfort Mich. T h e Salt P r o d n e t .

The Ransom of an Overcoat. :S BUCHAKAN^- (Copyrlght. 1902, by Dally Story Pub. Co.) Mr. B. WilbertMarsh sallied forth one morning, with a brand new light overcoat thrown jauntily over his left arm. About half way between his lodging house and the station where he was wont to climb up to that abominable inconvenience, the "elevated," he observed a young lady dart down the front steps of one of the most Imposing and least flaked of the veneered brown-fronts. She carried a letter in her hand.* On her head was nothing but a great glorious mass of plled-up saffron hair. She was strikingly pretty and strikingly conscious of the fact, if one might judge from her make-up and manner. It was evident that she vras bound for the nearest letter-box. Hardly, however had the little kid slippers of this pleasing damsel tripped along the pavement a dozen yards when, with the exasperating unexpectedness which nature sometimes displays in her most perverse moods, it began to rain. The attractive figure stopped short, wavered a moment and then turned back—just in time to meet young Marsh, struggling to raise his umbrella over his $26 overcoat. With a silvery laugh and, apparently the most perfect unconsciousness of any impropriety in thus accosting a stranger, the girl exclaimed: ."How sudden!" E. Wilbert Marsh smiled, and raised his hat with a gratified blush. "Would you have the kindness to drop my letter in the first box you pass?" asked the girl, putting the little square missive into the young man's hand, and gathering her skirts preparatory to flight. The next instant she fled, rustling and laughing, back to the shelter of the brown stone front, and E. Wilbert Marsh found himself saying "With pleasure!" to the empty air. The young lady looked back as she was vanishing and nodded. "I wo-der if she would rec ognlze me, if she met me again?" mused Marsh. Then he walked briskly on. The rattle of an approaching train fell on his ear. He had just time to reach the station and catch it There would not be another train for five minutes, and it happened that he was somewhat late that morning. With an Inward vow that he would mail the poung lady's letter immediately on leaving tho car, he made a wild dash for the stairway and rushed upon the platform of the nearest car just as the guard was closing the gate. Then "How sudden!" he slipped the letter into his overcoat pocket and straightway did what all men do under such circumstances —forgot i t Presently another young man left all teat, came up the aislo, and stood milling down upon Marsh. "Golzz to the ball game, this afternoon?" he asked. "Why, hello!" replied Marth^recbgatglng a chum in whose company he had aforetime done his part toward hoarsely eulogising the n a t i o n ! game. "Yes, I want to go. Shall, if I can get away. You going?" "Not much chanco of i t Two hundred and fifty pieces in last night's mail! Don't know how much larger this morning's mail will be. But say, Will, if you can go, you want to. It's going to be great ball. Hutchins will pitch for our fellov s. The champions play us, and are only just a notch ahead, you know." By the time E. Wilbert Marsh left the car his head was completely full of the great game which was to come off that afternoon. He was planning bow he could get away. He kept planning all the morning. In the early afternoon he got away. He just. went. It was a glorious day and a glorious dutifully ing when Miss Ollie dropped it from the bridge stairs. But instead of returning, he buttoned his coat raised his umbrella against the drizzling rain which had begun to fall, and walked away to a street car. Of course, Miss Ollie found no "dearest Sam" awaiting her at the head of the stairs, since he had never received her letter. She rushed frantically about, got into a jam, had her opera hat crushed out of shape, her purse stolen, and the better part of her indignant wind squeezed into gasping protests. Finally, she got free, but having neither umbrella nor money, had to walk home unsheltered from the rain. She arrived in a drenched, Renovated Butter.

The rain had let up. Everybody was there. The grand stand was jammed. The bleachers groaned. The entire field was shut in by black parentheses of humanity. The visitors began to score briskly in the first inning. They made four runs in succession, with out a man out. At the end of the fifth inning the score stood six to two in favor of the champions. Then it was that an eager face was upturned to E. Wilbert Marsh from the tier of seats below. "Three to one that the Caicagos win!" "I'll take you," replied Marsh, with a fierce, desperate thrill of pride and confidence in the home team. They would win yet! Anyway, it would be cowardly to go back on them in their extremity. He would try to turn their luck by betting beyond his usual figure. "Let it be X's!" he exclaimed. "All right!" responded the eager voice below. The Chicagos won. "I'll trouble you for that X," said the young man sittinc at Marsh's feet, as the bleachers rose with a howl, at the completion of the last inning. The champion of the home team began to search in his pockets in a dazed way. He finally gathered together a handful of coins and two bills. "I'm stuck at $4.75," he said, ruefully. "Didn't suppose I was so short Ought not to have bet But— say." He looked desperately at the resplendent overcoat lying across his arm. "You'll take this coat in pledge, won't you? I'll meet you here to-morrow afternoon—right here on the bleachers—with the cash to redeem it" The other young man hesitated. Vhen he took the garment which E. V/ilbert Marsh tragically handed to him, and disappeared in the crowd. A few hours later, the temporary owner of the new overcoat pulled a letter out of a pocket of the garment, and stared at the envelope with startled and flashing eyes. "I'd know her writing anywhere!" he muttered. "And addressed to my rival. Sam Niebaum. Confound it! I'll open it!" He impetuously tore open the envelope and read: ' Dearest Sam—What a shame that your invitation to the theater, to- -night came just after I had accepted as a dersifr reason, one from *fcat $5,000 guaranteeing that he will com- minute, o^f^ LhSiUs VfaZc tory.

After the game he found precisely the same sum in the pocket of that garment, together witt six of the choicest fifty-cent cigars ever swaddled in tin-foil. No wonder he thought the world must be growing better! He had totally forgotten that he did not mail a certain letter that was handed to him by a young lady. He will never think of it again, for the evidence necessary to recall the matter to the masculine mind had, in his case, entirely disappeared. must be impressed the words "Reno-1 vated Butter," and if the butter Is made into print? each print must bear ' these words.

CHINESE AND HIS PEN. tittle Anecdote that Shows Deftness of the Oriental. A certain newspaper man, who was induced to "try" a stylographic pen, got it out of order by reckless treatment, and took it to a pen-shop for repair. The man there soon showed him that there was nothing serious the matter with it, the only trouble being that he had neglected to do some little thing in using it. Then he began to take the pen apart for the newspaper man's instruction, so that he might see how very simple a thing it is. "Simple!" cried the indignant owner of the instrument, "it is as complicated as a Chinese puzzle! I don't wonder that I can't make it 'go' when I want it to!" The penman laughed. "You remind me," he said, "that there is a Chinese in this town who used a stylographic regularly. He came here to buy one several months ago, and when I showed it to him he began to take it all apart. I hurriedly stopped him, supposing^that he would do it an injury, but he at once put down the value of the pen, saying that it was his, and then continued his dissection of it. I give you my I word that he handled that pen more i deftly than the man who made it, j and in five minutes he had it put to-! gether again, so that it worked better i than it did at first. Those fellows j beat the world at understanding little ! details.

For him to attempt to raise a crop of anything that requires constant attention and the keeping down of weeds is a little out of his line. Sugar beets demand a great deal of labor and prompt at- j tention. It does not do to neglect ! them for some weeks, while cheap help is being waited for. Not only ! must the weeds be kept down, but' the beets themselves must be thinned as soon as they reach the size de-' manding it. This is a task of good pro- ' portions when the beets cover a tenacre field or larger. Labor pays well when used in growing this crop, but it cannot be stinted. That such labor is difficult to get just when the beets need it most all farmers know. The heat of summer and the rains .make Physicians Puzzled. St. Aubert, Mo., Aug. 4th.—Mr. R . R.

The real story of the discovery of gold on the Klondyke is not generally known, and to unravel that mystery is the purpose of this story. On a certain night, about three years ago last May, five men were seated about a camp fire, built under the south side of a cliff, among some pine trees, near the banks of the Yukon river, fifteen miles above Dawson City. As some of this party have become well known by the development of the Klondyke gold fields, it will be t& well to introduce them to the reader before we proceed with our story. That large man dressed in moose-skin coat and trousers, with a bear skin thrown over his shoulders, was once well known in the great northwest as the most daring hunter, miner and adventurer in all Alaska. He was as honorable as he was brave, and as kind hearted as he was sullen. His _ . name was Jack Ralston, but along the A man has started to ride a horse !

It was a hard winter, and I have often wondered why we didn't all die, but all but two pulled through, and when spring came on, an* the captain hadn't hove to in sight, the first mate said he was going back with the ship. They tried to make me go, but I'd promised the captain I'd stay until he came back. "Our ship sailed a way, an' I stayed around the town for a while, an' taen went on a cruise with some hunters. We branched off into the woods. I didn't tell the story of my captain 4U^.thA-lniun_jahlfif .witb.fcbg gold beads for a good many years. Then I went into the interior to try to find him. I got in with some moose hunters and traveled one whole summer and part of a winter and nearly starved an' froze a hundred times, but not a word could I hear of him, so I suppose I am doomed to make my last voyage from this port. When I meet my captain on that unknown sea to which we are all steer in', I'll tell him I kept my promise." When the ex-sailor had finished his story a silence fell on the group. No one spoke for several minutes. . The youth, known only by the sobriquet of "Crack Lash," sat gazing abstractedly into the fire. He had heard no part of the story, for his mind was still on his far-away home, where dwelt mother and the fair being who had promised to be his wife, for whom he had braved the dangers of the wilderness. At early morn the little camp on the Yukon was astir. Paul was the last to awake. Youth is healthful and innocent, so sleep lingers longer about its eyelids than those whose bodies are freighted with disease or minds burdened with cares. "Where's George?" asked Gid, as he toasted steaks. "Been gone these two hours," Big Port answered. "Alone?" "Yes." "That's strange." Breakfast was disposed of, the dogs fed and harnessed and the party prepared for their journey up the river to Dawson City, then an insignificant village, and yet lucky George had not retun.ed. As t i e sun rose higher the mud and snow made travel more uncomfortable. yet Paul trudged on, uncomplainingly. He could bear any burden or hardship without a^ murmur when he reflected that it was for Laura. Her presence gave strength to his arm and keenness to his eye, spurring him on to efforts more than superhuman. When they halted at noon they were compelled to ret to leeward of the smoke to protect themselves from the mosquitoes.

For a moment he gated upon it in doubt, and then, touching Qid Myers, who sat near, on the arm, he whispered; "Look off there, Old, In the direction I am pointing. Don't you see anything suspicious?" Old Myers did as directed, and said: "Yes, thar's somethin' onnatural, Crack Lash." "What is it?" "Weh, I'd say it was th' glow from Conductor Arose-.

Through the dense wood, across ravines, snowdrifts and muddy streams the two pressed on over hill and dale, cago to see a dying sister, and expected to be joined in Buffalo by her; husband. When Mosher went to her berth he made a highly interesting find—a babe, a tiny girl. Mother and daughter seemed to be doing nicely.

Gid followed his trail through the 6now without difficulty, and gave ' it as his opinion that he was going straight to Dawson City. Glum Ralston., who had not expressed an opinion on the subject for some time, at last said: "Boys, I heard him say somethin' one day 'bout goin' up the Klondyke." "What for?" asked Gid. "Said a squaw man told him there was heaps o' gold aloi.g that air stream." Glum informed him it wss one of -fc&e—tffbtttprior, of the- Youkon- whk; iog around a spur of the cliff, all of a sedden the full glare of torches and fire light fell upon them. It was a strange and unexpected sight that met their view. A great fire was blazing, to which was added the light of pine knot torches stuck In the ground. Two men were at work with picks, shovels and pans. Late as it was, dark as it was and tired and hungry as they were, they toiled on and on. "Crack Lash," Gid gasped in a hoarse whisper, "it's Lucky George and the squaw man, Lattimer." "Yes.' ."What are they doin'?" "Digging! Great heaven, look at the shining ore! See! the buckets and pans are full of nuggets and dust. Oh, Gid! Gid! It's a bonanza!" "Hush, they will hear you." , "I am going to make myself knowA to them." "And be shot?" "Way should they shoot me when we are friends? If they are like savage dogs over a bone, then we can shoot first." Gid consented to go to them, and, advancing to within a hundred paces, they called to the diggers. At first they were a" little confused, but Lucky George, who was a shrewd fellow, saw it was best to admit to the discovery. "Come down, boys; come down," he cried, cheerfully.

I'll gamble my dogs an' packs that he makes a ten strick right now." There was a silence, and the men sat and smoked and steamed, to drive away the mosquitoes. At last Paul broke the silence by saying: "If there is gold on the Klondyke let us go and find it ourselves." j "Now yer shoutin'," cried the prosi pectors. "Why not go to the Klondyke ourselves?" / ,ftruth is, boys," said Glum, "I've never-had any very exalted opinion o' Lucky George's honesty.

It was a journey attended from beginning to end with great danger and hardship. Glum Ralston was the only member of their party who had been on the stream, and he acted as guide. Again night came on, and they went into camp and prepared their suppers. Paul was a little disheartened work, stake out the best and get the very cream before the world finds it out. Lattimer here put me onto this; he got it from the Indians." Thjis was the discovery of the great gold fields in the Klondyke. Lucky George got the tip from Lattimer, the white man with an Indian wife, and had determined to work it alone if he could do so, but now that his friends had found him, he decided to make the most of It and divide. The others were sent for, and claims for all staked out. Next morning with the dawn of flay Pfl.nl hag&n—to., w o r k H a r l a i r n . From the first shoverful of earth, he began to take out gold. His pick seemed attracted to the largest 'nug-. fjets, and his pan was always rich in ore. He washed out a thousand dollars' worth of dust and nuggets to the pan. He forgot breakfast, lunch or dinner, but toiled on. The small moose-skin bags were quickly filled, and then he poured the renewed accumulation into a water bucket. His eyes gleamed with the fire of the insane, and in his mind he saw only the faces of sweetheart and mother and took no thought of rest, health or the danger which his accumulation brought him. There was danger hovering over the happy youth. His claim was some distance up the stream from the others, and one day, as he was toiling and heaping up the golden treasure, two pairs of fierce, avaricious eyes glared at him from the dense foliage of pines. They watched him a long time as he toiled, and then exchanged knowing looks, winks and smile3, which said: "Let the fool toil on. When he has taken his thousands from the earth we will have it." After the first few days he stopped long enough to eat and sleep a few hours at a time, dreaming of home and of making loved ones there happy. Little did he dream that a storm cloud was gathering over the loved ones at home and another over his own head, threatening to ruin himself and all most dear to his heart. (To be continued.) "Don't worry," he said to the mother. "I have two of these at my own home, and I know something about handling 'em. Let me have her. She needs some clothes." After giving the baby a warm bath in the lavatory, he looked through the linen closet for some thine soft to wrap, her in, but everything there was starched. Eight or ten commercial travelers were in the car. "Here, boys," he called out, "we've got the Erie's baby to feed and clothe and name. Open your grips and shell out the softest garments you've got." In an instant the .entire car was a-bustle with interest in Miss Mahoney. One drummer had a fine silk handkerchief, another a camel's hair muffler, another a suit of flaccid merino underwear, while the rest had cambric nightshirts that had been laundered until they were as flocculent as fleece. These articles were eagerly contributed. The night shirts were torn into strips a foot wide and tenderly the little form was enveloped. A petticoat was made of the underwear, a. dress of the muffler and a shirtwaist of the handkerchief. Thus clothed and In a really Jovial frame of mind, Miss Mahoney was delivered over tj her mother. The next duty was bestowing a name suited to the occasion, and "Dr." Godfather Mosher proved equal to the emergency. The mother's name was Nora, the grandmothers Camellia, the car In which the child was born the Cisco, the town through which the train passed atthe birth Judson, and th 3 family name Mahoney. So the young lady was named Nora Camellia Cisco Judson Mahoney, and that name shebears to-day. At Buffalo a handsome young man entered the forward, Pullman and asked the conductor if he bad among his passengers a woman of the name of Mahoney. "Two of 'em," replied Mosher; "they're in the rear car> the- Cisco." "Two?" said the stranger. "I'm looking for only one, my wife, Mrs. Charles Mahoney." "Well, I've two of 'em back here, and both of 7 emareyours."''f w ft a t~do~ y"OlTffieaTi;;r man?" "What I say. If you don't believe it, come back and look." Leading the way to the berth occupied by Mrs. and Miss Mahoney he drew asidethe curtain. The husband staggered back, gasping: "My God, how did that happen!" IRISHMAN HAD ONE, TOO. His Story Soon Turned the Laugh oh the Other Fellow. A story of Mjteslan co^orinE is told by a Philadelphia citizen,, wpo says, he heard it while watching the excavating for conduits by the laborers of the Keystone Telephone company. Working side by side were an Irishman and a negro. The latter, pausing to light his pipe, winked at the spectators, and, his eyes dancing with mischief, asked: "Dennis, did you ever hear de story of de two holes in the ground?" "No—I nivvlr did," was the reply. "Well! Well!" was the black's response, as he resumed shoveling. The roar of laughter that followed from the other workmen angered the Irishman for a minute. Another minute was devoted, patiently, to ascertaining the point of the retort. Then, stopping as though to hitch up his overalls, he too, winked knowingly at the spectators and some of his fellows, and asked: "Talkin' uv wells, naygur, did yea ever hear how we dig thlm in 01 reland?" "Doan' think I ever did, Dennis," said the negro.

The campanile was one of the glories of Venice, like the cathedral and the ducal palace, the Rialto and the Lions. The fall of the tall tower had been feared. A great crack suddenly appeared in the corner of the wall and extended across the structure, splitting two of the openings which served in lieu of windows. A night concert which was to be held in the piazza was ordered stopped by the police in view of the imminent danger. The shock was tremendous, but fortunately, the damage done to adjacent buildings of historic fame was singularly small. Only a corner of the SQUARE AT ST.

In the early part of the fourteenth century Floren* tine influence rapidly gained ground, and many sculptors from Florence came to work on the richly carved capitals of the ducal palace and other places, and especially produced ton • 5.65: mfi a large number of very beautiful tombs, with recumbent effigies. One very graceful type, the general motive of which was first used by Arnolfo del Cambio, was frequently repeated; at the head and foot of the effigy an angel is represented drawing a cur* tain so as to expose the figure of the dead man. The sarcophagus, on which the effigy lies, has reliefs of the Virgin and the Angel of the Annunciation, with the Crucifixion or some other sacred subject between. In lftter times these subjects were usually replaced* by allegorical figures of the virtues, and the simple curtain, drawn by angels, gradually became a large teut-like canopy, of rather clumsy and tasteless form. In most churches the sculptured decoration, apart frpm that on the tombs, was concentrated on the west facade, the tympanum of the central doorway being often filled with a very fine relief, such as that from the church of tho guild Delia Misericordia, now In the South Kensington museum. In domestic architecture sculpture was but little used after the Byzantine period, the splendor of the facades do* periling mostly on their rich-colored marbles and on, molded tracery and string-courses. !

Stir It well together, with fresh cheese, yolks of eggs and brains. Wrap it in a fragrant fig leaf and boll In the gravy of a chicken 0" a kid. When taken out, remove the leaf and souse it in a potful of boiling honey. The name of this comestible is derived from the flg leaf, but the mixture consists of equal parts of each, but rather more eggs, because this gives It consistency. This appears to have been a popular dish among the Greeks. To us It seems about as nice as an oyster eaten with brown sugar. Aristophanes mentions a thlrum of salt fish and a thirum of fat. In the "Frogs" there is a dismal joke in the form of a reasonable objection made t& leaping from a high tower, "I would lose two flg leaves of brain." The word occurs no less than twelve times In the fragments of the comic poets. The Cobweb. A story was told tbe other day of a little girl who discovered a cobweb and then, seeing a spider emerge from it, called out: "See the cob run! How fast the cob runs!" As a matter of fact she bullded better than she knew, for cob, or cop, is, according to the dictionaries, tbe name sometimes given to a spider; whence the word cobweb, which Is, strictly speaking, eopweb. Cop in this sense is probably an abbreviation of the Anglo-Saxon attercoppe, a spider. Odd Record*. Records are kept with knotted cords In Polynesia. During the early part of the nineteenth century and previously the official taxgatherers on the island of Hawaii, In the Sandwich group, did all their accounts on a "rope 2,400 feet long, which was divided into lengths, each corresponding to a district. Loops, knots and feathers tied along the rope served as memoranda for the hogs, pigs and pieces of sandalwood collected from taxpayers.

Tbe millers and agricultural papers are advising farmers who have grown wheat not to be in a hurry to thresh it.

Labor saving devices are always in demand and the man who thought of rubber stamping outfits bad a head that should have made him secretary of the U. S. treasury. However, rubber stamps have their places and occasions for use. If a business man se s tit to daub his letter bead.* and envelopes with a rubber stamp, thus leading strangers to think there are no printers in this town, he ought to be ostracised. Such a man. when he comes to die ought to have his funeral notice and the usual resolutions of his fraternity printed on a fence board with a rubber stamp. And when be has a baby at his house, or a party, or a son or daughter gets married, or when tbe neighbors hring in a wedding anniversary donation, a full account of the important events might OR printed on packing paper and tacked on the tront door. And when he is a candidate for office he might stamp a label to that effect and paste it on the bosom of bis trousers. If be has an important advertisment ot set before the people be could stamp ap a display on some manila paper which would read, "I have for sale at cheaper rates the very same things other folks are advertising in the DISPATCH. Come to study it over there is no end to the use a rubber stamp might be put to in tbe bands of an energetic, enterprising, up-to-date, economical mas. A little rain Thursday last. Jas.

Two incidents In the service in the abbey will live in the memory of all who witnessed them. The first of these, which almost developed into a dramatic contretemps, centered around the aged archbishop of Canterbury. From the commencement of the service the archbishop had the greatest difficulty in reading or remembering tho prayers. The book from which his Almost blind eyes endeavored to read <ih'*>k In his hands, and when he came to place the crown upon King Edward's head, his huge frame, towering ibove the seated king, swayed so violently that the bishop of Winchester had to support him. while the dean of Westminster put a guarding hand unlet' tho crown.

The pages, while their majesties knelt, still held the queen's magnificent long train with the rest of the.nobles present kneeling. The whole spectacle was most Impressive aud was made more brilliant owing to the electric light. By a great effort the archbishop of Canterbury was enabled to conclude * the service and the king and queen repaired to St. Edward's chapel. Neither of their majesties returned to their thromM after the communion, but remained at the altar, ' The service, .which, was completed with the singing of the Te Demn, w^s brought to a close without a hitch. The king exhibited no outward traces of fatigue. I'ntil a very late hour dense crowds paraded the main streets of Loudon through which vehicular traffic was forbidden, and watched the illuminations.

There was a cloud hanging over the -distant mountain peak, and occasionally the low muttering of far-off thunder could be heard, but it did not disturb the young pleasure seekers, who had come out from Fresno, California, to have a good time. One tall, gracef u l girl whose golden hair and deep blue eyes would have attracted aay beholder, waa standing in the shadow of a tree, whither she had wandered alone. She took very little Interest in the sports of her youthful companions, no more youthful, however, than herself. As she strolled under the shades of the pines her pale blue parasol half concealed a face that was exquisite in Us loveliness. *"Oh, Laura, why are you alone?" asked a pretty, dark-eyed girl leaning on the arm of her lover as she passed. -""There- are plenty of young fellows ^who would be glad to take Paul's -^piac&__ShAnjLtelHhjem they can?" "Thank you, Nellie; I dai net want them," while a faint smile flitted over her face. At thi3 moment another couple passed where the three stood, their face3 half hidden behind a pink erabrella. Nellie, smiling, said: "There goes Clarence and Nellie Bush. People say they are to be married in the spring and start for the Klondike." Laura sighed and her little friend went on. Th3 gaze of Laura Kean was now riveted on Clarence Berry and Ethel Bush. The rumor that they were going to that strange, far-off northern country awakened in hor mind a new interest in them. Ethel Bush was one cf her dearest friends, and Clarence and Paul had been boys together. As Clarence and Ethel sat in the shade of a tree, they built anew their air castles amid the glaciers and icebergs of the frozen north. "I hope I don't intrude,'' sa|d a iwoet, silver-like voice, and, looking up, they beheld their friend Laura Kean standing near, a smile on her pretty face. "My excuse for coming ia to discuss your intended journey to the Klondike. I have heard you are going in the early spring." "We have so decided," Clarence Berry answered. "And if agreeable I have decided to accompany you." Ethel Bush was delighted, and declared if they could find a preacher in Alaska the wedding would be celebrated in the frozen north. The three sat on the green and planned and talked with increasing enthusiasm, and Laura, with her pretty face beaming with happiness, arose, left the lovers to themselves, while she strollad down the grove, that her mind might conjure up her lover's joy and surprise a t meeting her In those faraway regions. Unconsciously she strolled deep into the wood and was lost to the sight of her. friends, when a footstep near caused her to start in surprise if not alarm. Before her stood a young man of twenty-eight, with a pale cast of countenance and keen blue eye. He wTas of a figure that might have been called handsome, but to Laura Kean he was repulsive. She gav« him a glance and gasped: "Mr. Lackland!" Theodore Lackland had followed Laura to this picnic and into this wood with a set pin pose in his heart- He was wealthy, a young man of good family and reputed ability, but a man of firm and fixed purposes. To accomplish an end he would go to almost any limit He h*1 known. Paul Miller long before he set oh' for the Klondike and hated him because lis loved Laura Kean. Why should this beautiful girl, the only woman whom he had ever loved, prefer this rude, peanUess country boy to himself? Mr. Lackland tailed to realize what so many have in this life—that it is the soul that attracts and net the face and figure. There Is no freemasonry so subtle'a3 the freemasonry of the scul. "I am pleased to set*4 you happy, Mis3 Kean," he said. "There has always been something wrong with mo, ar.d ^fhile others are happy I am sad." "Surely it is a morbid fancy," said La>:ra. The light was dying out in ker eyes. She made one quick downward look at the path, as if wishing to pass him. He observed her glance f.nd said: "No, no, Laura, wait a moment; I have something of great importance to say to you, which I must say now. "I have just been told that you have decided to go to Alaska in the spring." He looked earnestly into the girl's glowing face, and added, with deliberation: "Laura, there a r * reasons why you •houJd not undertake *ucb a Journey." **U Ethel Bush can go, why not If* He ra not anawer immediately, but stood af the side of the path carelessly kicking the leaves with the toe of hie boot. At last he answered: "Laura, if your love had been a great love, you must have read my secret, just as I have read yours." In a low tone he continued: "Long ago I knew that you loved", or thought you loved Paul Miller. I saw it before he did—even T>efore you realized it" . The rod glow covered her cheeks more deeply than before. She was silent, and he was tramping nervously backward and forward. Then he went on rapidly in a tone of irritation. "Laura, I understand you. It is not for a rude man like this Alaskan miner to do so," Then in an eager voice he raid?" "Dearest^~i- hr-tng y4w~a--laxe~ undreamed of among such low creatures.'* "Low creatures!" she bissed,ialmost breathlessly. His cheeks quivered; his lips trembled; his voice swelled, while his nervous fingers were riveted to his palm. He approached her and took her hand. She seemed benumbed by the feeling. She stood as one transfixed, a slow paralysis of surprise taking hold of her faculties. But at his touch her senses regained their mast e r y . S h e flung away his hand. Her breast heaved. In a voice charged with Indignationshesaid^ - "So this is what you mean! I understand you at last!" Theodore Lackland fell back a pace. "Laura, hear me—hear me again." But she had found her voice at last. "Sir, you have outraged my feelings as much as if I was at this moment Paul Miller's wife!" Theodore Lackland felt his self-contrcl rapidly slipping away, and in th? height of his passion said: "You shall never marry Paul Miller, Laura Kean! I swear it! I hold your fate and his in my hand, and have mere ways of crushing you than you imagine. Ee sensible; recall your insulting words, and do not throw yourself away on that impecunious ne'erdo- well—a hulking brute, made for a pick-ax and shovel •" "Enough!" she cried. "I would rather marry a plow-boy than such a 'gentleman' as you!" • Face to face, eye to eye, with panting breath and scornful looks, there they stood for one moment; then Laura, without a word, swung about and walked away to where her friends were preparing to return to town. The features of Theodore Lackland underwent a frightful change. The* gathering thunder cloud was not more black than his face. He raised his clenched fist to heaven and cursed his rival, heedless of the rolling thunder and on-coming storm. "It is a long way to the Klondike," he finally muttered, while the smile of a devil flitted over his face; "but. great as the distance is, he will feel my power, and so shall she." A heavy peal of thunder and the falling of rain roused him to the fact that the little excursion had all gone, leaving him alone in the wood and storm. He hurried to where his horse and buggy were, and, leaping in, drove furiously tn town. He took the train that night to San Francisco and spent a whole day in consultation with two ill-favored looking men. In a few weeks Laura had forgotten ths unpleasant scene with the wealthy Mr. Lackland. She was busy preparing for the journey in the spring. It was the last of February, and on the next day Laura was to draw her money from the savings bank and put it in the hands of a friend to secure hor a passage and outfit for the Klondike. Late in the afternoon she saw a great crowd of men on the street talking in an excited manner, and a moment later Mr. O'Bourne, the butcher, came running toward her, wringing his hands. "What is the matter, Mr. O'Bcurne?" she asked. "We are ruined, Miss Kean; we are ruined. The. savings bank has failed; can't pay a cent!" She grew dizzy and clutched at the door for support. Quickly all her bright dreams of • urprising hor li'ver vanished. Mrs. Miller consoled her with the assurance that the loss would be mads up by ihe great fortune Paul was taking from the. Klondike. A few days Inter she learned that the bank had been wrecked by Mr. Tom Harris, th? cashier, speculating on San Francisco Beard of Trade. Later came the whisper that Harris had fled to avoid arrest, but before going had confessed his crime, and said that "he was induced by .Sir. Lackland to speculate. He went on the wrong side of the market and was ruined. The evening post brought Laura a letter. It was addressed in the wellbeloved hand of Paul Miller. Brt there was something in the chirography to alarm her. It was in a scrawling, feeble hand, and with many misgivings she broke the seal and glanced at the contents. Then, with face ashen white, she shrieked: "Wounded, robbed, ruined!" and fell senselMss to the fl^cr.

"I fear you wrong Mr. Lackland." "No, no; he threatened me last autumn when we were up the valley to the picnic.

"For downright luck and pluck the bridal trip of Clarence Berry was without parallel. On the day he and sweet Ethel.

On the 15th they were married" al"t' sn^eY.--JvYatuli--*«akes4 the pretty little church in Fresno, and \ co'se, impossible!" their friends in great numbers gathered about them to congratulate them and bid them a tearful adieu. Next day the bride and groom took their departure tor San Francisco. Laura imprinted a kiss on the young bride's lips and whispered: "Give it to him! Oh, I wish I could go with you!" They went to San Francisco, where they met the remainder of their party bound for the Klondike. Among the party was a tall young fellow named Dick Ronald, from Seattle, who from his height soon acquired the soubriquet of Long Dick. There were half a dozen other men, some young and some middle-aged, but Ethel was the only lady in the party bound for the frozen north. The voyage and journey to Juneau was made withput any unusual discomfort, but from that on it became perilous and every mile marked with danger. They engaged some Indians as guides and an Esquimaux with the euphonious name of Umstich, which Long Dick translated for convenience into "Hemstitch." Umstitch was engaged as a sort of general superintendent of the dogs and sleds, of which they had several to convey themselves and packs across the bleak, white deserts, the dog being the only animal capable of making those journeys in all weather. The accommodations for the young bride were poor, but Clarence did the very best he could for her. They carried a stove and tent, and every night the latter was pitched in some spot where the snbw was hard. Beds of boughs were made, and Ethel was wrapped in furs until there was little chance for her to suffer from cold. She rode all the way from Juneau to the mining camp well muffled in bearskin robes and furs, strapped on a sled or boat as the case might be. and while this method of travel was much better than walking, the uncertainty of her position made it anything but comfortable.

As usual after making a trip of any extent we shall endeavor to give our readers a glimpae of "what we saw and how w e saw it" or in other words how we weie j j _ impressed by w h a t we aaw.. l u t h e s e d a j s of rapid transit and palace cars with cheap excursions and home-seekers rates to the western states, a trip to Chicago and further is taken by a good many of o u r readers each year, b u t there are probably those like ourselves who have never been west of Chicago and who will be as interested in what we saw and perhaps as surprised at s o m e th i c gs a s w e were. With this thought in view we will t r y and make our article as plain as possible to convey our meaning and will give you first CHICAGO AS WE SAW IT. When people visit a great city some will be impressed with one thing and others with another. The one thing that impressed us about Chicago was t h e fact that the second greatest city of t h e United States is builded upon a soft foundation or where t h e civil engineers have to use all their power of ingenuity to build a solid foundation. New York's foundation is solid rock, and except to blast this out, builders have had few foundation problems to face. Consequently their wits and ingenuity have not been exercised in this direction, and their contributions to this phase of building science have been few. I n Chicago t h e city's foundation is just as safe as tnat of New York, once the blue clay bed is penetrated, b u t getting to that bed and utilizing it has required the highest degree of skill. Caissons have been sunk, foundation wells and o t h . r inventions, b u t the steel or wood pile driven one upon the other deep into the earth and then grouted or left as they are, appear to provide a supporti n g base not equaled by anything else, even rock. T h e serious objection to a polid rock basis is t h e enormous cost of blasting it out. J u s t because originally Chicago as to soil foundation was not the most favorable spot in t h e world for a large city, their engineers have defied every obstacle of nature and conquered. They have not only conquered but we find in Chicago some of the largest and finest feats of engineering in t h e world. If we stand on the crest of the dome of the Masonic Temple and look o u t over the city, at Taylor street we see the largest bascule bridge in t h e world; a t Halstead street the largest tower hoist bridge i n existence; at Campbell avenue the largest eight-track railroad bridge ever built; at Kobey street the beg i n n i n g of t h e longest, deepest and most effective drainage channel man has ever made; at Rush street the largest shipping and receiving port of any city; at South Chicago the greatest grain elevators known; at Randolph street the first steel sheathing coffer dam ev«r sunk in water; at Sixteenth street t h e most difficult track elevation problem yet solved by man. L a n d is so expensive in Chicago that many buildings a r e being raised higher and other stories added to the structure. T h e Masonic Temple i s proving too small and another story is to be added to t h e 21 a k e a d y completed. A man took t h e elevator j o u r - ney to tfie dome of t h e Temple t h e other day and s a t down under t h e time ball. ' H e h a d a pencil and a pad in his h a n d and h e was quite unconcerned a s to the probtem before him. A little man who was with h im walked around nervously and talked. "Now," said he to the man with t h e pad, "another story is needed up here. You just find o u t how we can get it.

" I believe," h e said, "we can do the j o b in a mouth or six weeks and n o t disturb anyone. The letting down of t h e floor is comparatively an easy matter. I guess a little compressed air will raise t h e roof. We can uncover t h e skeleton construction of t h e dome, place jacks beneath it, and by t h e application of a i r raise t h e whole roof a t one time. We can hold it u p on the air, too, until we have the new supports underneath a n d permanently fixed. T h e interior finishing will be an easy matter." H e and the little man h a d a few words and t h e matter was settled. Next October t h e builders will come with yards of cable and chains, tackle and jackscrews, a n d as unconcernedly as though merely moving a frame shanty will hoist u p the largest dome roof in t h e West, lower a floor and create t h e new story desired. And this is Chicago as we saw i t T h e charm, the life, the greatness of Chicago lies in t h e fact that it is a city of doing; that it knows no impossibilities; t h a t while it is yet crude, u n finished, smoky and soiled, it "gets there."

Stomach and bowel trouble!, severe as they are, Sive immediate warning by paint ut liver and kidney troubles, though less painful at the start, are much harder to cure. Thedford's Black-Draught never fails to benefit diseased fiver and weakened kidneys. It stirs up the torpid liv*J to throw off the germs of fever and ague. It is a certain preventive of cholera and Bright's disease of the kidneys. With kidneys reinforced by Thedford's Black- Draught thousands of persons have dwelt immune in the midst of yellow fever. Many families live in perfect health and have no other doctor than Thedford's Black- Draught. It is always on hand lor use in an emergency and saves many expensive calls of a doctor.

THE VILLAGH DIRECTORY, Edited by the W.? 0. |T .F.^otiPlnokney T h e German government proposes t o t a k e definite &tef>& in t h e direction of controlling t h e sale of intoxicants in Prussia. Count Douglas has introduced a measure into t h e deit which is supposed t o represent t h e eniperoi's views. I t prohibits t h e sale of spirits containing fusil oil or other injurioue e l e m e n t s ; their sale in t h e early morning hours before work"" begins, o r to intoxicated persons, or persons under sixteen, or those designated b y t h e police a s habitual drunkards. Dr. T. D. Crothers, editor of t h e American Q a a r t e r ' y J o u r n a l of I n e b r i e t y , says o n this subject: " I n a report which I made before the American Society for t h e S t u d y of Iuebriety where t h e hist o r i e s o f 1,744 -inebriates-- were studied, 1,080 had a distinct history of heredity. Many of these cases were direct heredities, t h e impulse to drink passing down from father to child with great exactness. Usually the transmission of a drink impulse ends in extinction of t h e race after t h e second generation, UDt always b y inebriety or d r u g raking, b u t b y other diseases which a r e encouraged by t h e low vitality of t h e victim." u U u t o t h e third a n d fourth generation," says Holy Writ. W h e n t h e rural free delivery system was first advocated, few urged its adoption as a means of increasing temperance, Y e t if th© following conversation with a village saloonkeeper, reported b y an eastern daily, be true, t h e a d - vent of the system should be hailed with delight by all enemies of the nefarious traffic: " W h y " said Mr. Saloonkeeper, "when m e n came into town every day for t h e j . acd;0op. ui., vespers and benediction at 7: mail they were sure to drop into | _ my place while they waited; every body drauk, everybody treated everybody e h e and it made trade lively. Now the farmers come into town b u t two or three times a week and more often b u t once, and the worst of i t is they don't happen to come in together, for they only come in for groceries o r some other s«tipp iet«, anil no t w o men's- supplies are apt to give at exactly the same time. T h i s , you see, does away with the matter of treating and reduces trade tremendously, I t ' s ruining business, I tell you." VILLAGE OFFICERS. PRESIDENT . . . _ . ^ . , . . . , . . . o . L.

In the great business world no man now thinks of succeeding with inferior machines. The farmer that keeps cows should take the lesson to heart and discard all dairy machines— cows—that a r e not up t o modern requirements. No matter what a machine costs, it is better t o throw it out on the dump than use it at a constant loss. Only good dairy Lost, perct. j machines can be profitably used. The good cows make butter at a profit. The ordinary dairy cows make butter without profit or loss, and the poor cows make butter at a loss. Now i t is evident that no matter how much a cow costs, it is best to send her t o the butcher if she either loses money , or makes butter with no profit. There ' are in the hands of farmers many , cows that have cost a good deal of money once and were perhaps good cows at one time, but have outlived their usefulness. These should be fattened up at once and sent to the \ butcher. Some men say they will fat- | ten and dispose of their cows a few j months hence, when they have dried ] up. But what is the use of keeping J cows at all if they are losing money j for their owners every day. T h e ^'i 4;i M 48 51 53 6-' .761 M\ I .543 .ft-'8 ! .467 !

Our advice is, therefore, not to wait for the fungus, but to organize a campaign at once for the immediate relief of the crop, depending upon the fungus to finish the work by destroylng the bugs which would otherwise live over winter to menace the crops of next year. The chinch bug, though able to fly, prefers to travel on the ground, and it* migration from wheatL to oats or corn may be intercepted by making a V-shaped trench, as with the corner of a hoe or the outside tooth of a cultivator, and pouring in a little coal tar. A line of tar an inch across will be sufficient. When a crust forms over the tar It must be freshened with a new supply. As the bugs enter the cornfield their progress may be impeded by frequent cultivation of the outside rows of corn, thus burying many of the bugs. When they cluster on the stalks of corn they may be killed by sprinkling with kerosene emulsion, made as follows, and thrown with sufficient force to wash them off the corn: Kerosene Emulsion—Dissolve half a pound of eoap in one gallon of water and heat to boiling; remcvo from the P.re and while hot add two gallons of coal oil, churnirq the mixture with a force pump for fifteen minutes or until it resembles buttermilk.

This is not so, if every facility be provided. Scales should be arranged in the stable and near the cows, so as soon as a man has milked his cow he can step to the hook, hanii his pail on.it for a second, record the weight, register it on the chart hanging on the wall and go his way. This takes but a moment's time. But every facility should be provided. The scales should not be sitting on a table or bench where it will take a dozen unnecessary steps to reach them, Uut should be on the nearest wall. The milk sheets also should be tacked to the wall and a pencil should be hanging near it. If the record Is kept in a book it takes a minute or so to find the book, open to the page and make the record. This Is too much time to have to devote to this work at the milking of each cow. If the sheet is placed on the wall the work is almost Jnstahtly dope. The arrangements for "testing should be also comploto^ If composite samples are to be taken the spoon for stirring the milk should be ready and the bottles into whica to pour the samples. No extra steps should be necessary and no extra manual labor. Every facility being present will make the work popular and lead to its continuance. Lack of facilities will cause the work to be neglected in the case of emergencies on the farm and this in turn will render the tests and weighings of less value than they would otherwise be. Nurse Crops. It appears from our results that nurse crops, as a rule, are inadvisable. Barley is the best, as it is more open and does not shade the young clover and grass plants so much, and as it comes off the ground earlier than other cereals, it does not extract so much moisture and leave it in such a dry condition. Oa;s, wucat and rye are not considered successful nurse crops, and in fact our experiments indicate that It would be much better to discard the nurse crop altogether and devote the land exclusively to seeding to clover and grass. The attempt to "kill two birds with one stone" in that it Is hoped to get a crop of wheat and also a crop oi grass anu clover from the soil during tno same year has been c~own to be a failure so repeatedly that further discussion is unnecessary.—Andrew M. Soule. Fruit that the farmer picks from his own vines, bushes or trees, is far superior Jor home use to that that is purchased in the market. Market fruit must be picked before it is at its best, while the fruit for the farmer's table can be picked *t its best as it is needed.

No one could remember, although Just why a waiter should not be seen with glasses as well as any other man was not apparent •It's just like the wearing of beards," iwent on the inquisitor "The proprietors of our important hotels, restaurants and cafes will not permit either beards or glasses to be worn by their waiters. It Is possible that in some old fashioned fumily or commercial hotel the servitors may be found with their noses straddled by optical helps, but you won't find 'em along Broadway. "Now, this is a fact worthy of note because In every other calling In life the number of persons wearing glasses is on the increase, and even in our schools a considerable percentage of very small children will be found wearing glasses, and while, as I say, hotel, restaurant and cafe proprietors are opposed to the glasses, still 1 have seldom found a waiter whose eyes In* dlcated that he waa in the slightest need of them. "You may argue that restaurant waiters are generally young men. Grant you that instantly, but all the tame thousands of men of similar age have to wenr them In almost every other occupation. "The majority of those servitors tommence in boyhood, and the demand of their vocation causes no strain on the eyesight Consequently that may account In a measure for the absence of any necessity for the use of specs. Moreover, the steam from hot viands would render them useless probably."— New York Telegram. A Stmyle Hatter.

'Father, Son and Grandson, the Representatives of Three Generation* of a Distinguished Family, Who Have Died Within Six Month*. The funeral of the Into Senator James McMillan was held at the family residence Friday afternoon. It was an impressive scene which presented itself when Rev. A. FL Barr, D. D.. the dead senator's pastor, stepped out upon the landing of the broad stairway and spoke the first words of the simple Presbyterian funeral service. The house was crowded. Soml>er mourning colors blended in contrast with the beautiful coloring of many floral offerings.. The silence of the form within the «casket was not more intense than the isileuce which reigned throughout the large house when the first soft strains •of Handel's '"Largo" were heard from a sheltered nook in the corner between the stairway and the entrance to the lihrary. An orchestra of five pieces, selected and led by Prof. Schremser. was in the corner behind a screen of palms. At the conclusion of this selection Mr. Barr stepped forward again on the •stairway landing half way up from the first floor, and read a few verses •of the Ninety-sixth Psalm and the last verses of the fifteenth chapter of First • Corinthians. Another orchestral selection. "Jesus. Lover of My Soul." followed, and after It Rev. Mr. Barr pronounced the invocation and followed it with the bene- • diction. The service was over and those who had heard it arose and passed in silence from the house. The active pall bearers took up their burden, placed it in the hearse and, followed by only the members of the'family and a very few intimate friends, the body of the •dead senator started on its final jour- •\ney. to rest in Elmwood. Three thousand people, mostly women, were gathered in the vicinity of the McMillan vault in Mini wood by 2:30 o'clock. Fifty policemen were on guard. The v a u l t . w a s covered with green and white flowers. For hundreds of feet the driveway was lined with evergreens and with blossoms. The floral tributes were so profuse that it took all the space which could be spared to display them at all and then they had to be placed on tables and in corners through all the front rooms of the house. Many more could not be placed in the house and were sent directly to the .cemetery. The attendance of United States senators, congressmen and state officials made the funeral very imposing, though the family had everything as simple as possible, avoiding all ostentation possible. Among those who attended were ten of the late senator's closest friends in the I'nited States senate—Senators Allison, of Iowa: Ballinger, of New Hampshire; McCoinns. of Maryland; Cullom. of Illinois: Burrows, of Michigan; ..'Hauna and Foraker. of Ohio; Henry Cabot Lodge, of Massachusetts; Fairbanks, of Indiana, and Cockrell. of Missotrr^_JThey alt speak in the highest terms of their late associate's personal worth, executive ability and great influence in shaping important national legislation. Among the legislators were State Senators At wood. High and Kelly, Speaker Carton and Representatives Nevins, of Allegan, and McCallum. of Schoolcraft. They and other member* of the legislature met at the Russell house at noon to take action on the deatli of the senator. Chairman (J. J. Diekema and Secretary 1). K.

The close of the hard-fought case was an impressive one, and It will bo long remembered by those who wero directly or indirectly connecfed with the affair. Andrews was at once taken to the county Jail, whore he will be held until the question of appeal to the Supreme Court Is decided. The trial occupied five weeks. men demand and have experience gained In the mother country. The examination of Charles H. Crossman, of Paw Paw, the man who shot Jerome C. Lewis bocaHise of Mrs. Crossman, took place Wednesday. Crossman was held to the circuit court in the sum of $5,000. In default of bail the magistrate committed him to lail. There Is a good deal of public sympathy for him. John Malervy. aged 40 years and for the last 20 years foreman at the Eagle plaster mills, south of Grand Rapids, was found dead In the basement of the plant Wednesday morning with his head crushed to a pulp. No one saw the accident, but it Is supposed that he was caught in a fast moving belt and hurled to the floor. Reports at opera tors' headquarters indicate that all the Saginaw mines were reopened for work Monday morning, and that in many cases mora i men have applied than are needed—in ' some a greater numtier than were formerly employed.

He rode under the trees and to his _ surprise there was not a man or "woman to be seen. He noticed some charred sticks And tin cans, and fearing that the bandits had fled and were watching him from ambush he was about to pull his pony back into the thicket when he was startled by a loud shriek that appeared to haye come from the skies. "I could hear my heart beating," he says, "and I hardly dared to look up, for I fully expected to Bee nothing less than a mother with a babe in her arm .flying through the air above the tree tops." Before he could push back his sombrero, another tender appeal greeted his ears, and the next moment the surprised cowboy was looking at a little babe suspended between the topmost boughs of a large mesquite tree. The cowboy suspected that a great crime had been committed -by__spme Inhuman monster. As he stood up in his saddle and stepped into the forks of the mesquite he muttered: "I wish I had the cowardly wretch or cruel mother by the throat who tied this - They retired to the shade at *me*-- i the tree* She. could see a. hunch, of quite, and from the evidence that was before them these practiced plainsmen read all the horrible details of one of the most harrowing tragedies that ever occurred on the frontier of Texas. The cowboys of Texas know the Mexican peccary or wild hog. He is a small, lean razor back, brlstHng with rage and fury from the moment of his birth in some dark cavern until he is filled with lead or cut to shreds. His nead'Ts Targe and^^hfs ponderous jaws are literally full of long, sharp tusks. Some of them are curved, and with these he can make a frightful noise and cut off a man's leg or slash a dog into two pieces at a single snap. He is a living allegory of courage, audacity and rage. Every inch of his little body is full of pugnacity and the devil. At any and all hours he is ready to £ght anything from a rattlesnake to an elephant Whenever his wicked little eyes fall upon an object that moves he charges it, whether it is a mouse, man or tiger. Not satisfied with killing, be tears the body of his prey to shreds, snaps MB tusks, covered with blood and foam, over the bones, and then crushes them to splinters. The cowboys looked at the white skeletons. The bones were yet wet with blood and scarred with the marks oi tusks. They read that a man and a mother with one little babe had stopped under the mesquites on the previous day to rest and make coffee. peccaries fighting over the bones of her husband, while others were gnashing their bloody tusks and tearing the bark from the trunk of the mesquite. She pressed her babe to her breast and renewed her cries for help. She had shouted and screamed until her voice could hardly rise above a whisper. Her feeble cries only served to enrage and increase the efforts of the savage beasts thirsting for her blood. Her appealinidr afiT only HelpelTto swell the number of her foes. Hour after hour passed and the fury of her tormentors did not abate. Her limbs were growing weak and her throat was burning from thirst. More than once her baby nearly slipped from her grasp. If it had fallen amongst those mad beasts she would certainly have followed i t With true motherly devotion she resolved to save her child, though she might perish. Summoning all her strength, she quickly tore her dress to shreds, anfi after wrapping the babe in one of her skirts, she swung it between the swaying boughs of the tree. She bound the babe so securely that it would have remained in the tree though rocked by a storm. What happened to the.mother? Either one of two things. She may have fainted or she may have grown so weak that she could not maintain her hold upon the boughs of the tree. poor thing up here and left it to die of thirst in the hot sun and be devoured by buzzards. While th3 cowboy was in the treetop his curiou3 performance in connection with a small bundle had been noticed by a comrade who was riding the range a short distance away, and he rode straight to the mesquite grove. The cowboys stripped the little sufferer naked, and after bathing it with water from their canteens, they poured a few drops down its throat. It was evidently tired and sore, and the, moment that it felt cool and comfortable it fell asleep in Swinger's arms. Conors suddenly sprang to his feet, exclaiming. "What is that lying over there?" Walking to the object he glanced over it and then turned towards his friend with a grave face. "The devil has been to pay here, Swinger," he said. "This is a skeleton." He had hardly finished speaking before he saw another heap of white bones. Then for the first time the cowboys noticed that the earth was torn up, and upon closer examination they soon discovered fragments of flesh, clots of blood and shreds of clothing. Both men vert now closely scrutinising the ground. One found a broken gun and the other discovered the tracks of Mexican hogs. They were doubtless familiar with the country and it is now known that they were traveling on horseback, for two ponies were found in the vicinity of the battleground some days later. The man and woman were suddenly attacked by a prowling band of peccaries. The man helped his wife and baby into the forks of the tree, and doubtless would have joined them if he had not been prevented by something that is not written upon the battlefield. He may have stumbled, or he may have had to take a few steps to reach his gun. He may have been dragged down by the tusks of a hundred hungry gmnting beasts. At any rate, he fought on foot. His gun was empty and the barrel had been bent. Did the mother sit in the tree and see her husband fall? Did she see the little furies swarm over his body, snap-, ping their tusks and tearing hS flesh to shreds? Did she see some of them crushing his bones, while others gnawed at the bark of the tree in which she sat pressing her babe to her breast? She must have seen all of that and more. Is there not here* a study for an artist? Who can depict the mother's face or. tell her emotions? Night came on.

She may have gone to death more horrible than any ancient martyr ever suffered, moved by a heroic resolve. Looking down upon the swarm of hungry peccaries gnawing at the trunk of the tree, may it not have occurred to this tortured mother: "Perhaps if I should give them my bcu. my fltsh and blood would appease their hunger and they would go away and spare my darling." The heroic mother, with Spartan courage, may have deliberately thrown herself into the jaws of the merciless beasts, hoping to save her babe. The cowboys thought of all of this while they were examining the deep ring cut about the trunk of the tree by the sharp tusks of the tireless peccaries. The mystery remains to be solved. The cowboys took the little baby boy to the home of a good woman who is childless, and they said to her: "Here is a little kid we found out in the chaparral. We want you to raise him for us. Whenever you want any stuff call on us and we will put up. Here ii two twenties for starters. Call him t i r n i n . D e t r o i t .

We here give a more full account of the printing office; r _ _ _ The new government printing office will cover over fourteen acres of space and will edbt over $2,000,000. When in full Ajperation it will be the greatest prinV ing shop in the world, and will employ 4,000 persons, one-fourth of whom will be women and girls. The pay roll will call for an expenditure of 13,000,000 a year, and general expenses will call for another million. I n the main composing room there will be 665 employes who will do nothing but fold printed sheets by hand, and another 800 who will work at nothing but bindings. There will •be 125 presses, of every conceivable kind from a little foot power card press to the big perfecting presses capable of printing anything up to a 24 page newspaper There are four big envelope presses that can turn out 40,000 printed envelopes in an hour, and another big machine capable of printing cards on both sides from a web of bristol board at the rate of 65,000 cards every 60 minutes. In the typesetting room the type cases hold 1,500,000 pounds of type. ^ o other government spends as* much money in public printing as does the United States, and when one reads a description of this magnificent printing plant, and the work it is expected to do, there is about nine-tenths of the work that looks like squandering money. One report recently submitted to Congress will be scattered broadcast by the congressmen and over 100 tons of paper will be used in its printing. In printing the Congressional Record 100 typesetters are kept busy all the time, and the publication costs the government $1,250,000 a year. The office has turned out some very rapid work in its time, and once issued a 298 page book in 24 hours. I t was a report on the blowing up of the Maine, the typesetting, printing and illustrating, as well as the binding, being attended to in a single day. wrormj: Edited by the W.'

A very terra incognita only two and a half days by steamer from London, or 40 hour by express from Paris. As pretty a land as one could ask for, an interesting and courteous peo pie, scenery to delight rather than astound, hotels—only a few, it must be admitted, quite up to date-r-with prices as low or lower than Switzerland or Italy. Yet nobody comes here, except on business or very adventuresome tourists. I have seen just four Americans in my eight weeks in Portugal and her near islands, and perhaps a dozen English since I reached the mainland. My letter of credit, issued by en old and substantial London bank, gives , just one place in all this country to • draw money, which shows what its makers think of the probabilities. It Is generally understood that Lisbon is a beautiful city, but its misfortune, from the traveler's point of view, is that it is not on the direct route to anywhere. And there is a prevalent idea that when one has seen Lisbon he has had all that is worth seeing in Portugal. Now, Cintra alone is worth a journey across the Atlantic. Busaco rivals the Bavarian Alps, Coimbra has at least as many charms as Heidelburg, Mafra almost causes you to forget They say tha,t Mrs. Mackay knows hqw to make money fly. This is an art in which women seem generally to be very proficient. It contains the only university in Par* tugal. The town, which is somewhat nearer to Oporto than to- Lisbon, con* - tains about 14,000 Inhabitants, a n d has some '1,500 students.. It i s pie* tureaquely situated on Monttgo river, the embankment wall of the esplanade being some 80 feet in height, and the ground rising gradually toward the rear. The region in the government-owned hills of Bussaco are worth a page in themselves, instead of the trivial mention that can be ajlqtted them here. The people are indebted tor this splendid reservation—as they are for many more in Portugal—to the monks, who have such an unerring eye for grandeur and situation, and showed such taste in adorning the vast estates which they acquired. The story of the great convent at Mafra reads like a page from the life of Louis XIV. Between the years 1717 and 1730 the average number of workmen employed was 14,700, with a maximum of 45,000 men. One is not astonished to learn that the cost, $20,000,000 (equal to double that at* present prices), left the nation in a state of bankruptcy. A church, a monastery and a palace are Included in the scheme, besides barracks.

[ Escorial, Patalha is one of the great sights of the world. And these aro only the beginning.

The Goth perpetrated his fair hair and blue eyes over a large area. The purely Iberian race survives here and there unadulterated.

Let's not go an' act like a hull paseel o' fools as don't know what we're a-doin' nohow. Save hlrn a n ; wq'U 'fffa Crack L a s h ' s dust back an' well hang alf four together; you all know that's much better'n hangin' one at a time." The life of the captive was spared for the time being, and the miners proceeded at once to organize themselves into a vigilance committee, preparatory to stopping crime at the very beginning in their new settlement. Lying on a low couch in one of the , shanties wa.8 the hero of this stroy, known on the Klondike as Crack Lash Paul. His, wounds were severe, and he was in a feverish condition. One of the miners who had some knowledgeof medicine and surgery had extracted the ball and dressed the wounds. The name of the doctor will perhaps never be known. In the Klondike he was only called "Sawbones." The patient's face was flushed and his eyes closed. His quick breathing and nervous movements indicated that he suffered mentally as well as physically. "Be quiet," whispered "Sawbones" in the ear of his patient. "Here, take * this." He raised the head of the wounded youth and gave him a spoonful of nerve-quieting medicine. He drank it off, and then lay back on his bed and slept. The doctor arose from the low stool at the side of the couch and went out. He quickly turned his gaze toward every projecting branch within range of his vision.vA look of disappointment came over his face as his eyes searched in Vain for some object. "What have yeu done with him?" he asked of a miner who was going by. "Nothin'," was the answer. "What, hain't you hung him yet?" "No." "Why?" "Glum Ralston said not." "What's the matter with Glum? Has he got bats in his belfry?" roared the infuriated doctor. 'Hold on, Sawbones; don't get off your trolley until somethin's on the track. I tell ye Glum's all right." He then proceeded to explain matters to the irate doctor, assuring him that he would yet have the satisfaction of seeing the robber lifted high enough to get a bird's-eye view of the hew Jerusalem, but explained that in order to get the others they, must keep the powers of speech in the one thsy had. "Well, with that explanation 1 cave in," growled Sawbones. "But I don't want any feelin' o' sentimentality roaming around this camp. We don't come of a forgivin* stock, we don't." The patient slept for several hours, and when he awoke as evening began to draw near he was much improved. But he recovered slowly, and so did the prisoner. The latter's wound, however, was more severe than Paul's, and for a time his case seemed doubtful. The doctor impressed with the hope that some information would be obtained from the wounded man, used his skill to the utmost to bring about a speedy recovery. When Paul was able to walk about he insisted on going to his shanty to investigate it, though he was so weak he had to sit down on a sluice box to rest before he approached the door. When he had rested sufficiently he arose and, unlocking the door, entered the shanty. He searched the room carefully for some clue that might have been dropped by one of the attacking party after they entered the room, but for a long time found none. At last he discovered in a narrow crack between the logs and chinking what seemed to De a bit of paper wadded up and thrust into the hole. He went to it, pulled it out, and it proved to be an envelope stained with blood. The envelope was stuck in the crack near the corner where the wounded outlaw had fallen and Paul at once surmised he put it there. He took the paper out of the envelope and gazed at the handwriting in amazement. It ran as follows: "San Francisco, Sept. 1, 1895. "Inclosed find transportation and money sufficient to pay your way to Juneau. Whatever you do, remember that Paul Miller is not to return to Fresno.

"There has been a carefully laid plot to ruin me," he said To himself,ax he sat upon the stool trying to study the missive. "Who is 'L. T.,' and why should he wish me to remain in the Klondike?" He left the shanty, carefully locking the door after him, and was making his way to the cabin at which he had stayed since the attack, when he met Glum Ralston. "Hello, Crack Lash,. gettin' under -way agin?"- : - - . - " f i iii There seemed to be aomothingslight- Ay, tout and Ilpm* there they traveled on fooc, sleeping on the snow securely wrapped in their blankets. On the morning of the third day they came upon the trail of these men and followed it until nightfall. Next morning they weio early on their trail again; amt after -four- hours' hard travel Glum Ralston said: "There they are, Crack Lash!" He pointed down a narrow valley which diverged from the main valley, and three spects could be seen upon a , slight elevation. | Glum Ralston was an experienced : scout, and began at once to put in ! play his woodcraft They crept forward to some trees and advanced rap- - -4dly-r- keeping themselves screened "I am able to be out. Glum," he answered. "Glad on it. boy—glad on it." . The ex-sailor was about to pass on when the young man said: "I want to talk some with you, Glum. There was a deep-laid plot to rob and murder me. I have an enemy or enemies—I know not how many— who have designs on my happiness. Ralston was not a man to be moved by emotion or jump at a conclusion. He sat a long time listening to the unquestionable evidence of the youth. When he had finished there was no longer a -doubt-That here was-a conspiracy to is jury Crack Lash, and perhaps take his life. A new light was breaking in on him and he became more interested in the youth than he had been. "M-well, Crack Lash, I think we'd better run 'em down. Wonder how many we kin git to go with us." "I want no one but you, Glum," said the youth. "You and I are enough, for I can trust you, which is more than I care to do with all. I believe that if I can capture those men they will not only tell me where to find my lost treasure, but also inform me who this enemy *L. T.* is." "Then by the trident o* Neptune we'll go an' never stop until we find them." After consulting the matter, they decided to keep their departure a secret from their companions, and decided to start before they were awake next morning. During the night a snowstorm raged. Next morning long before the miners were astir our two friends were attired in furs, with several degs, provisions, blankets and rifles, and set off on snow-shoes in search of the three men who had robbed and so nearly killed Paul several weeks before. Glum Ralston had received reliable information that the men he wished to find were In a valley up the Yukon, and they acted on that information. They found the snow stiil falling, though it was not very cold. For several miles they trudged along on the snowshoes in silence. At. last Glum said: "Stop!" "Why?" asked Paul. "We'll rest." "I am not tired." "Ye don't think ye are, mate, but you'll have all the wind out o' yer sails afore ye know it. Set down." There was a log lying near, and both sat upon it. "I am sufficiently rested, so let's go on," said the youth, after a short rest, starting to his feet. "Don't be too certain ye know ye kin stand it, lad. I tell ye it's a longer voyage 'n you think, an' there's rough sailin' between this an' the Chilkoot." They reached Dawson City next day at noon. As Paul was still weak, he secured a room in the hotel and went to bed to rest. Being overcome by weariness and the journey, he was soon buried in profound slumber. He was awakened by some one shaking him by the shoulder and whispering: "Tumble up, Crack Lash." "What Is It, Glum?" he asked, starting up and rubbing his eyes. "They're here." , "Who?" 'The rascals that robbed ye. I saw th' face o' one o' them fellers wed seen a-hangin' around our diggin's before you were robbed, an' I'd bet my wolf-skin cap th* others ain't fur off." Paul Miller hastily donned his clothes. The pale youth drew on his fur boots and buckled his revolvers about his waist. He realized how dangerous an encounter would be and he knew he might be a corpse in twenty minutes. He breathed a silent prayer for Laura, mother, and lastly himself, and whispered: "I'm ready." They went down to the room below, where they found a wild crowd carousing, but no sign of the man who was suspected of being an accomplice in the robbery. "Walt at the door, Crack Lash," Glum whispered. The ex-sailor left him and hurried away. He was gone but a few minutes when he hurried to his side, saying: "They're gone." "Where?" "Up the ukon; we'll find 'em in the valley." "Let's go at once,".said Paul. They set out for the upper valley. An U ' H .

RUUER. from the observation of the men they were trying to overhaul. Night fell again without coming up with them, but a glimmer far up the mountain-side told them they had camped there. The pursuers slept and rested a few hours and then again started on the traiL At last they came in sight of the three men not over two hundred paces away. Raising their rifles, they shouted to them to halt. The fugitives cast quick glances behind, and then, with defiant yells, fled. Two darted around one side of a huge, projecting-cliff„tbat formed the extreme spur of the mountain, and one went the other way. Two rifle shots rang out on the mountain, and two , bullets whizzed through the air. I "Ye winged yer man, Crack Lash," cried Glum. "Follow him and I'll give chase to the others." Paul needed no second command, but darted after the man at whom he had fired. The fugitive threw away his gun and fled for life, and for an hour Paul was in doubt whether he was gaining or him or not. At the end of that time, to his great chagrin, he saw him dash into a thick forest of pines and firs. When next he saw him he was1 creeping along a ledge five hundred feet above him. With no other thought than the capture of the fugitive and recovery of his treasure, Paul threw oft his snowshoes and clambered up the steep precipice with great labor and no little danger. Up he went, \ heedless of everything but the solu- j tion of the mystery which threatened j his life and happiness of himself and ; Laura. He reached the fork and be- : gan to climb the great dead limb of a ! tree which touched the coveted ledge, j At that moment he heard a crackling ; at the root of the tree and became I conscious of a descending motion in j the limbs to which he clung. ! He knew he was falling, and that with the vast mass he must descend i into the valley beneath. He left himself rushing downward through the air; he closed his eyes; there came a horrid crash on his ears, and he knew ' no more. I When Paul regained consciousness he was lying on a pile of skins and > furs in a cavern. | A man clothed wholly in bear and seal skins stood over him, gazing at him with a pair of strange gray eyes. His hair was long, falling to his shoulders, and his beard, which was almost white, came to his waist. He had a half-savage and half-civilized appearance. Paul gazed into the strange, wild face and asked: "Who are you?" j The stranger, without taking his eyes off him, asked: "Who are you?" "I am a miner from the Klondike who was robbed. 1 was in pursuit of the robbers when the accident befell [ me. You found me?" i "Yes." | Paul at first supposed that some of his limbs were broken or dislocated, and dared net move, but after a few moments he discovered that he had suffered no greater injury than a severe shock. He had fallen into a deep snowdrift, which had broken the fall and no doubt saved his life. "Won't you tell me who you are?" asked Paul after a few minutes' gazing into the face of the mysterious stranger. The man turned* away for a ! moment as if he wished to avoid the j answer and then slowly turning back : answered: I "I am a hermit; will that suffice?" j "Do you live here?" Paul asked. ."Yes." "How long have you lived in this i mountain?" Then came a longer silence than ! usual, when the hermit of the cave i answered: "What difference can that make to you?

Drier weather has forwarded the completion of the oat harvest mill the bulk of that crop is now mostly secured in fine condition. The cool weather has somewhat retarded the growth of corn, which eontiuues generally small and backward. Corn is earing nicely, but needs hot weather to mature it. Beans have improved, Wit continue to indicate light yields. Buckwheat is doing finely in all counties! Late jvotntoes continue to do fair- Jy well. Sugar beets, except on low and poorly drained land, continue very promising. Reports rewarding apples Indicate that the crop will be a fairly large our; some scat and considerable dropping is reported, but on the whole plenty of fruit remains on the trees, which is of good quality. In the upper peninsula there is need 1 of more moisture for corn, potatoes • and pastures. In the lower peninsula ^pastures continue excellent, especially il'or this time of year. Fall plowing is general in the central and southern counties, but the soil turns up rather lumpy. ^ In the extreme southern counties some rye has been sown. The Kirohner Cane. Rev. Charles Kirchner, the Casco minister accused of a crime on Rosa Aldcrholtx, his adopted daughter, is said to be at his home and will appear at the time set for the preliminary hearing. The apprehension of the toudsmeu grew out of the fact that the Mt. Clemens bank, on which a certified check had been drawn and deposited with the bondsmen to indemnify him In case of loss, had refused payment on the check and the steps were taken to enforce compliance with the agreement between the parties. At .'the time of Kirehnor's release on bonds Mrs. C. Haag, of Tort Huron, wife of Rev. Mr. Haag. and Rev. Herman Grlndert, of Mt. Clemens, each turned a $300 certified check over to (lie bondsmen, but the Grlndert check was not paid, though the money was in the bank. The matter w^s straightened out. It is said that the accused (minister's parishioners believe in his rimtocence and Mill stand by him. State Soldiers and Siillors. What is conceded on all sides to have been the most successful encampment of the Michigan National Guard in two decades ended on Tuesday. The weather has been perfect, the health of the troops uniformly good, and their general behavior and discipline, both in and out of camp, of a much higher standard than in former years. A general order issued by the governor, in which he paid a tine tribute to the troops, was read at dress parade Tuesday evening, and another of similar tenor will be forwarded to the commander of the Naval Reserves. The sham battle drew a big crowd of spectators. The second regiment and the independent battalion opposed the first and third regiments. Gov. Bliss was. opposed to the battle, fearing accidents, but finally gave his consent. The Yantic, with the Naval Reserves, returned to Detroit on Wednesday. They report a tine cruise and Mere delighted with the state encampment, M'hich gave them some extra hard M-ork hoM'ever. They had target practice from shore batteries, and were in review Mith the militia. At the target practice one of the best shots M-as Bliss, M'ho sighted and fired the piece, and his effort was received Mith liberal applause by the crowd. Excited Over a n Klonement.

I am going to tell you three things, .aud I don't want you to usk me any further Questions. In the Hi'st Hace, I don't look like a sick man. In the second place-, I fee! the necessity of a rest, and I am go* ing to take one. In the third place, I am not going to resign and have no IntMithm-ef retiring from the preaU dency of the United States Steel Corporation." "Are you going to FiUrope?" waa asked Mr. Schwab. "Yes," he replied, "but don't ask me any more questions; that's all I have to say." Geo. W. Perkins, of J, P. Morgan & Co.. said: "Mr. Schwab Is not seriously ill, and the stories printed about Ids resignation from the presidency of the United States Steel Corporation ar& almost too silly to be noticed.

Ho closed his eyes and in a few moments was unconscious. When t e awoke he found the strange hermit at his side bending over him and gazing face. He turned Indian!, having hod supper, were stretched before the fire. Ethel, attired in furs, sat on a sled which had been* drawn up before.the blazing logs. Her prond husband declared she looked like an angelic Esquimaux queen. Dick By JOHN R. MUSICK, reclined on the skin of a muskm ^ ^ l « e g ^ \ ^^JtJ^ &*^J*^J£ slowly away and went back to the fire. + A moment later he brought him some meat and said: "You had better eat; you are weak." This was quite a long sentence for the hermit, and he paused after speaking to r e s t Paul took the broiled steak and ate sparingly. It was very juicy and nutritious, and he began to feel stronger in a few moments after he laad finished. The hermit meanwhile had resumed bis seat on a large stone in front of the fire. There was now another expression o n his face. It was an expression of sadness. The more Paul studied the features of this strange man the more niysterlous they seemed. He lay for a long time looking at him and asking himself a thousand questions. Then he grew weary of gazing and thinking and closed his eye3. ConscicuEness had almost slipped away \rhen a movement in the cavern caused him to again open his eyes. The hermit was preparing to leave. He took up the rude lamp, in which burned seme kind cf oil, aud went to the opposite side cf the cavern. He set the lamp on a flat stone, and putting his hand into a sort'of crevice in tne rocky wall pulled forth something. It wa3 in a roll. lie unrolled it and gazed tit it intently. Fieri where he lay Paul saw that the object when unrolled was part of a tanned hide of pome !-ort of e.r. animal. "1 (hope he will leave it." Ihcught J'aul "if he decs I will examine it. There i3 writing on it, and it may contain come clew to this Klondyke mysvery that FO nearly drives mo mad." All the movement* of the hermit were slow and deliberate. He wont carefully toward the entrance.of the ca\orn. Loir; Pr.ui lay on the couch listening for the slight tread of the maccasined l'o/-t, .but he came .not hack. "He has gone!" said Paul. He rose to a sitting position and gazed about the cavern. After a few moments he rose to his feet. With a wildly beating heart he began his tour of exploration. The oil lamp had been left burning on a square stone, and he picked it up and went along the great natural corridor for some distance until he came upon a great chamber with lofty ceilings. He began to search for the crevice in the rock where he had seen the man place the skin on which was the writing. Paul found the roll and drew it out. It proved to be a piece of walrus hide covered all over with strange pictures and hieroglyphics such as the Indian picture writers use. It was "rtmost round, and he could find no beginning nor end to it. The report of a gun near the mouth c? the cavern caused him to thrust the walrus hide into the crp.ck and hasten Into the deeper recesses of the cavern. A well known business man was standing at a street corner talking with a friend the other afternoon, when a seedy looking chap, with a bloated countenance and a whining voice, approached and tackled the business man for the loan of a dollar. The business man gruffly declined the shabby chap's appeal arid told him to be on his way in a canter. This rather puzzled the companion of the business mac, who knew that the latter w^a^o^^ahox^remely cbaritHe" dim, uncerTaTrr~nghT aTr"aT"1rr^t^m~TrtroTV-he was my f r r e i t d - a n d - d e > - f J ^ ^ *£**- openrhanded IttspnsltintiTrr blended Bowery slang and western dialect. Suddenly one of the dogs started up and gave vent to a low growl, cutting the story short. The guide gave a sharp whistle and seized his rifle. The otherB at once laid their hands on their guns and stood on the defensive. A few moments later a large object could be seen in the distance slowly advancing toward them,. Owing to were of the opinion it was a bear, and one or two cocked their guns and stepped but a short distance from the light to get a better shot at the animal. The guide suddenly called: "Hold! It's a man!" '"Course it is," growled a voice in the distance. "What did ye think it was—a walrus?" A man clothed in "furs, holding a rifle in his hand, came forward and advanced toward the fire. Ethel rose trembling with fright at the appearance of this strange apparition, and clung to the arm of her husband. "Who is .he?" she whispered. "Where did that terrible man come from?" Though the question was not intended for the ears of this strange man, he heard them, and in a voice like the deep tones of far-off thunder ho answered: "I am from the Klondyke, where you seem to be going; a place where .gold can be raked up by the handful." "Who ere you? What is your name?" Berry asked, advancing toward the Klondykcr and extending bis hand toward him. "I am called Glum Ralston," he answered. ""What are you doing here?" "Hunting for a friend." By this time Clarence Berry had clapped his hand and brought him rear the camp fire, where he bade him be seated and tell his troubles. "1 hain't muc'i at spinning yarns," the ex-sailor answered. "My friend was robbed on the Klondyke a few months- ae/o. an' at the same time laid up for repairs " Ethel grasped her husband's hand rr.d mentally ejaculated, "It was Paul." S h e list •?;ved w i th the 1 -e '-• nest interest to the st:;ry of G.ium Ralston, aad tears gathered in her eyes. She knew the missing companion \va= none other t.ian Paul iifller, whose fate would perhaps never be known. "Oh, heaven, poor I.aura! how shall we break this terrible news to her, Clarence?" she sobbed. The young husband made no answer, and Glum Ralston, lighting his pipe, proceeded to smoke in silence. CHAPTER IV. Meeting a Friend With Bad News. St is necessary at this point in our jrtiory to return to Clr.rence Berry's Tiarty, which we left on the top of the Chllkoot Pass in a raging storm. All through that terrible night Clarence Berry lay thinking" of his young wife, whom he had packed away as comfortable as possible in that terrible \ height in the frigid zone. Day dawned bright and clear and he arose early and called to his wife: ''Ethel, Ethel, are ycu alive?" There came no answer until ha had pulled away some of the packages that formed her apartment; then he heard her voice answering: "I am all right, Clarence." "Thank God!" ejaculated the husband. "I feared yon had perished during that terrible storm." Dick and "Hemstitch," the Esquimaux, were self-constituted cooks, and prepared a breakfast of a pot of boiled beans and a little coffee, which froze o n the slightest provocation. When breakfast was over two sleds were loaded with supplies, and without dogs or any one to draw them, started down the mountain. Two weeks were consumed in reaching Lake Lindermam Here they were detained another week, completing a boat with which they could make their way down the river. One night, after a day of arduous toil, they camped* at the foot of a mountain protected from the north wind by * steep previpice. The dogs had been unharnessed, fed and lay sleeping about the sleds. The tJrtd CHAPTER V. THE WALRUS HIDE. Paul Miller ran two or three hundred paces into the cavern until it grew so dark he had to grope his way and he came to a halt. From around a projecting stone he turned his gaze back to the chamber which was lighted by the lamp. He saw the hermit come at a run toward the inner chamber, three men pursuing him. They were so close on him that he halted by the side of the couch and turned at bay. A third man at this moment appeared on the scene and seized his arms from behind and hurled him to the cavern floor. Paul Miller had all along watched the exciting contest. He started toward the chamber, where they were tying the hermits's hands with strips of walrus skin, and was almost near enough to call out when he suddenly halted and gave them a stare. "They are the robbers themselves!" he gasp'id in a whisper. "What in heaven does this mean!" He quickly slunk away behind some masses of rock, broken from the side of the cavern. Completely concealed from the actors in this singular drama, Paul was enabled to observe all that went on. There seemed to be" only violence enough on the part of the captors to effect the capture of the hermit. When this was effected they began pleading with him to do something, or make some revelation. After a few words, the captive became silent and sullen. His captors plied him with many questions and he refused to answer any of them. At last, leaving him in charge of one man, the other two began to search the eiv ern. When they came near Paul he croue led in the smallest possible space and scarce dared to breathe. One of the two searchers was the Ycry man whom he had chased up the mountain side. As they passed one of them mentioned a name which caused him to start so violently as to almost discover himself to them. It was Lackland. Lackland wat the wealthy banker and speculator of hi* own town, who had he«s a rival for the heart and i > - ,r^ .:,' /-¾ '• i ^ : ' •A'1 - i ?v,-,v$A h and cTXaura~Bushr W h at dtfr tbewr mysterious men of the Klondyke know about him, or what bad he to do with them? Almost maddened by despair Paul fell upon his knees and furiously beat his breast with his hands while the captors led the prisoner away. They had taken up %he oil lamp and carried it with them, and Paul was soon in total darkness. In his fit of desperation he rose and followed them. At the entrance of the cavern he halted and gazed off after the captors and prisoner. A thousand tumultuous emotions swayed his heart, and again in despair he beat his breast with his hands. "Oh, cruel, cruel fate! Why did fend him!" He gazed helplessly at the little party until they had disappeared from his view and then threw himself upon the floor of the cavern in despair. But his better judgment came to his a man who rarely resisted t ^ o appeal of the commonest street beggar and who made it a point never \ p turn down an appeal for financial ai«;from unforturate friends of former days. The business man chewed in silence relief and starting up he seized the I o n t h e e n d °* bis cigar for a while lamp and started back toward the fire I a n d t l e n h e said: to light it. It seemed an age before the faint glow from the dying embers told him where the fire was. He at last reached the spot, and with a pine stick raked the living coals together. Laying on two or three smaller sticks he blew them into a blaze and lighted the lamp "You no doubt think It odd that I sent that fellow, whom you could see knew me by my first name, on his way with such s-:ddennes and asperity. So I might as well put you right in the matter. That fellow *s the only man in the world that I actually hate ^ and despise a n d ! marvel at his gall After "a short rest he was prepared ^ ^ bracing me for as much aa a shoestring. And 111 tell you why I despise him We two are of exactly the same age and we were brought up together in this town in the same neighborhood. He was the model of the nelghto travel, but he remembered the walrus hide, with its mysterious hieroglyphics, and determined to take it with bim. He was unable to make out anything from the hide, and roll-1 ing it up thrust it in one of his capa cicus pockets, and taking some of the ! provisions left in the cavern, went out'. and buckled on his snow shoes to j leave the place forever. He tramped until night and then spreading a blanket on the snow slept soundly. A j snow- fell during the night, and when i he awoke he shook off the white gown ; of nature ar.d ate some of the roasted ! moose meat he had hrought with him. I For over a week he wandered about \ in the wilderness, subsisting, on fish he caught in the river and a deer j which he shot, but not seeing a hu- j man being. Paul had no compass to steer his course, and was often lost i among the mountains. j One day he came upon a fresh trail ' in the snow as if a party with Indian \ porters, dogs and sledges had made j [heir way over the snow toward Forty Mile Camp. - ! He sat down at the side of the path [ to rest and think. A slight crunching ; .)f snow but a s.iort distance from him ; caused him to look up, and he saw a i man coming on snow shoes, a rifle on bis shoulder. A single glance at those familiar features, and he cried: •'Glum—Glum Ralston!" The solitary traveler paused, started i back in surprise, clutching his gun for j an instant as if he would use it; then j dropping it on the snow, gave vent to | a whoop that would have done cit-dit to a wild Indian, and bounding forward bad Paul about the neck, crying: "Crack-lash alive, by th' trident o' Neptune." "Where have you been?" asked Faul. "Cruisin' about lookin' for you," he answered. "Where you been?" Paul told the story of his adventures, concluding with his escape from the cave. "I have found the mystery about me thickening all the time, and this walrus hide covered with strange pictures and hieroglyphics is the chief of all mysteries." Glum Ralston took the walrus hido, unrolled it. and gazing at it with wildly dilating eyes which indicated his strange interest, demanded: "Where did you get it?" "From the hermit." "Th* hermit—the hermit—the man that owns this -hide^—the man who saved you, is my old captain!" cried the excited prospector with a shout. "Where is he? where is he! It's my old captain—I'll sro home to Kate yet. Where is he? where is he? where is he?" he shouted almost fiercely, while Paul was too much dumbfounded to utter a word. "Be calm, Glum, and explain what you mean!" cried Paul. Holding up the piece of walrus hide, Glum said: "I've seen this before." "Where?" "On board, the 'Eleanor.' H "Who had it there?" "The red-skin as had the stran' o' gold nuggets about bis neck." Paul's interest in the walrus hide Increased. The old man continued in a gleeful tone: "Oh. he lives, he lives! I willfind hlm» tell him I've been true to him all these years and take Mm home." Suddenly he became more composed, and, turning his eyes on Paul, asked: "Where is he?" "I don't know." borhood, I was the hoodlum of the • neighborhood. And that by waa thrown up to me morning, n e e * a&*4 night.

THE UNBIDDEN GUEST i Take it as one will, there is something impressive in the danger or demise of royalty. We mortals have builded up and exacted the worldly fabric of our existence as high as v/e can. We have constructed outposts and redoubts and inner ard outer walls, and keep and sanctuary, and some of us have placed high up and over and above all a Kir. g. And now there conies a time for the glorification of this brave work, when the king shall take his place upon his t.irone, and "his lords and vassals and people throughout half the world shail rejoice. There shall be great pomp and gorgecusness, ar.d ancient rite and ceremonial, and revelry and feasting. In a magrificent obi cathedral the rich light shall shimmer and reflect on innumerable jewel?, and on garments of cloth of gold and ermine, and here shall be aseemoied the pride and pomp and chivalry or a great nation to do honor and homage to their sovereign lord. Suddenly, in the midst of all the gaudy preparation there comes an unbidden guest, a guest that enters the royal palace with the same mien cf authority i.^at he decs the poorest hovel in the land.

HAWK AND CROWS FIGHT tt& JOS * '&£ ? 3 Druid Hill Park, near Superintendent Cassell'8 residence, was the scene on Sunday of one of the fiercest battles ever fought between crows on the one side and a large chicken hawk on the other, and, perhaps, the only battle of its kind in which the hawk suffered defeat, says the Baltimore Sun. It is a well-known fact that the relations between hawks and crows have been strained perhaps since creation, hawks neglecting no opportunity to destroy young crows before they leave the nests. Represontaaves of the two species of birds rarely meet without a battle. They usually fight in midair. This is no doubt the reason why the hawk has won so many victories. Fully twelve or fifteen crows took part in Sunday's battle. The hawk was attacked in midair while hovering over a crow's nest. The onslaught made him furious and he retaliated by swooping- down on the tree in which the nest was built. The crows we*re determined to drive off the enemy and made a systematic and concerted onslaught on the intruder. First one and then another would NEW USES FOR ALCOHOL. drive at him and in a short time tae ground under the tree was strewn. with feathers. The hawk fought with bill and' claws, while the crows used only their bills. The fight became so hot that the hawk was compelled to leave the tree, ar.d, being too exhausted to fly, sank to the ground. There he made a final stand, and the battle was an interesting one, passengers on the- Emory Grove cars being among thespectators. First one crow and then another would give the hawk a dig with his bill and then jump back toescape the savage plunges of the hawk. The hawk fought as long as he • could stand on his feet. Even while lying on his side or back he kept np^ the struggle. The crows, however,. were relentless and kept pecking away until their adversary fell dead. Then they flew off a considerable dis* tance and patched up their cuts andt bruises as best they could. Not a . single one of their number was killed. —New York Press. European Governments Experimenting in Many Ways, No innovation in European automobile practice within the last year or two has attained such importance as the trial of alcohol in .the place of gasoline. The attempt to effect, a substitute has been stimulated by, if it did not originate in, two potent forces.

When a man Is at the oars In a rowboat he is always backward in coming forward gressively helpful attitude assumed by the French and German governments. Several exhibitions have been held within the last few months to illustrate the many practical applications which can be made of alcohol, Usually when you want your un* brella it is not here, but over there. ' and in France two months ago an elab- ! orate series of tests was made, underthe auspices of the minister of agriculture, to show its special fitness for propelling vehicles. By the French i t . is customary to employ a mixture of ' alcohol and gasoline, and not the latter alone, because the gasoline engine • can then be retained with little modification. In Germany an effort i H e - ing made to perfect a motor working on the same general principle—explosion— but different enough in details : to burn pure alcohol. The problem has not been fully worked out, n^r, for that matter, is the economy of alco* hoi fully ascertained.

Surely there can be nothing more beautiful than the Elbe at night When the stars shine on the water the river looks like a belt of silver studded with millions of brilliants. The water is calm and would scarcely ever stir, except in the wintertime, when it rises, were it not for the immense log rafts that are pent from Saxon Switzerland. Some of these iron-bound logs are so heavy that they require six men to work them. They are not brought to Dresden, but are mostly sent to Hamburg, where the wood is utilized in the building of ships. Besides these women, and the color of their hair is all that the name of the artist suggests. We were delighted with the r i w t t e a a t — A y p r a » * • • « • » » .

At Dresden several attractions are near the old bridge on the left bank of the river.

TiUan is represented by some lorely ror-stricken son he hears the voice of an angel from on high telling of reprieve. The great picture in the Dresden collection is Raphael's "Madonna di San SIsto," which was purchased by the gallery in 1753, and until then had adorned the high altar in the monastic church of San Sisto at Piacenza. The colors look aS fresh as if they had been put on the canvas but yesterday, and the blending of tones is beautiful. The robe of the madonna is blue and red, that of St. Sextus is yellow touched with red, and S t Barbarina's gown is green trimmed with yellow and blue. The subject is wonderfully well conceived; the green curtains have been drawn aside, and Mary, sweet and gentle, though self-possessed, has descended to earth to give the Christ child to the world; though only a babe, He wears the intelligence of a grown man. She does not hold the infant to her breast, but rather as if she desired to present Him to humanity, saying: "He is your King, receive him." Pope Sextus II. and S t Barbara are on either side of the madonna, waiting to accept the Child. Peering through a veil that divides heaven and earth are thousands of angel heads, while two angels are resting on the earth, with eyes on the Christ child. Day after day we went back to this wonderful picture, and it ever bespoke the same sweetness and loveliness.

Fur V u in ih» >h«yday- ef its power, there were sent from Qt Louis alone in a single, year 100,000 robes; and the company bought only the perfect ones. The hunter usually kept an ample supply for his own we'd't, no that for every rrtM_honght_ An unhappy wife is one whose husband always lets tier have her own way. Squire Red wine, who has been in Phoenix for several days, yesterday described a smoking lake not far from the country where he lives, say3 the Arizona Republican. The lake ts about forty miles from the town of Imperial and twenty-one miles south of Mexico. It lies within the Cocopah country at the base of the mountains, even below the foothills, but it ha3 not been there very long. It is on the Mexican side of the line. It used to be in California and was supplied with water by the Chlno river, but the Mexicans dammed that stream and the water was turned into the Cocopah river, which feeds the new lake and does little else. Within the boundaries of the new lake there has been for several year* what the Indians believetl to be a volcano. Smoke was almost constantly rising from the ground, but there had been no other sign of an eruption. The water of the lake now covers tho volcano to a depth of from five to ten feet. Ever since the water has beeu there there has been trouble, and it is getting worse every day. The Indians have moved from that neighborhood and the whites in the settlement twenty miles north are thinking of moving. The lake is about fourteen miles long, but not of great width. At first the disturbance was confined to that part of the water in the vicinity of the volcano, but now the water is boiling over a considerabU part of Its area and explosions are growing more and more, frequent. People living in the neighborhood of Texico are often awakened by them in the night time. Eruptions are going on all the time, but they are g?nerally of sufficient force only to throw up the water to the height of a few feet. That makes no noise that can be heard at any great distance. But occasionally the eruption break* through the water and shoots mud into the air at a height of forty feet Whenever this happens the noise can be heard and a flame can be seen for miles. It was such demonstrations as these that frightened the Indians away. There are boats on the lake and parties have started out to the volcano, but they have always turned back without completing the investigation. One party which came back reported seeing an area of mud forty feet square thrown fifty feet into the air. The level of this lake is several feet below sea level. The whole Cocopah country has been a volcanic region. The side of the mountains and the country for a considerable distance around are covered with sulphur. Within the memory of some of the older residents of Arizona one of the volcanoes In the mountain range was active. oy the company three times as many were taken from the plains. S t Louis was only one port of shipment. Equal quantities of robes were being sent from Mackinaw, Detroit, Montreal and Hudson bay. A mUlioq would not cover the number of robes sent each year in the forties. In 1868 Iuman, Sheridan and Custer rode continuously for three days through one herd in the Arkansas region; and In 1869 Trains on the^Kansas Pacific-were-bsidfrom nine In the morning until six 1 at night to permit the passage of one j herd across the tracks. Army officers relate that in 1862 a herd that covered an-area of seventy by thirty miles moved north from the Arkansas to the Yellowstone. Catlin and Inman and army men and employes of the fur companies considered a drove of 100,000 buffalo a common sight along the line of the Santa Fe trail. Inman computes that from St.' Louis alone the bones of thirty-one million buffalo were shipped between 1868 and 188L What Constitutes "News." The Buffalo Commercial says that Cnarles A. Dana once defined news in this way: "If you see a dog biting a man don't write it up. But if you see a loan biting a dog spare no pains or monkey to get the details to the Sun office." This is a poor paraphrase of a good story. When "Doc" Wood was night editor of the Sun a young reporter asked him: "What constitutes news?"

Matthews, Ark,, Aug. 25th.—Mrs. Lee S. Sanders of this place tells how an almanac saved her life. "I have been troubled a great deal with my kidneys all my life and was constantly growing worse. "I chanced to get a copy of Dodd's Almanac for 1902 and In it read some stories of how Dodd's Kidney Pills had cured many very bad cases of Kidney Trouble. "My husband bought a box and I began to use them and In a short time we were surprised and delighted at the wonderful improvement in my case. "I am now as well as anybody and I can not say too much for Dodd's Kidney Pills. It was a lucky day for me when I picked up that almanac. "I beneve LoeM's Kidney Pills will, cure anyone who suffers with Kidney Trouble." All tho troubles of this world are born with winds.—Mary E. Wilkins. Chinese Foreign Adviser.

CAPTAIN O. BERTOI-BTTa Captain'O. Bertoletto of the Italian Barque ''Lincelles,'1 in a recent letter from the chief officer of the Italian Barque Lincelles, Pensacola, Fla., writes* "/ hmve suffered for teveral years with chronic catarrh of the stomach. The doctors prescribed for me without my receiving the least beaeiit Through one of your pamphlets I began the use of Peruna, and two bottles have en* tlrely cured me. I recommend Peruna to all my friends."—0. Bertoletto, In catarrh of the stomach, as well as catarrh of any part of the body, Peruna is the remedy. As has been often said if Peruna will cure catarrh of one part, it will cure catarrh of any other part of the body. Catarrh is catarrh whever located, and the remedy that will cure it anywhere will cure it everywhere. Dr. S. B. Hartman, Columbus, O.: My Dear Doctor—It give* me pleasure to certify to the excellent curative qualities of your medicines— P e r u n a and Manalin. h a v e b e e n afflicted more or less for a quarter < of a century with catarrh of t h e 4^omach an4 constipation. A residence in Washington has increased t h e a e troubles. A few bottles of your medicine h a v e given me almost complete relief, and I am sure that a continuation of them will effeet a permanent cure. Peruna is surely a wonderful remedy for catarrhal affections—J. D. Botkin. This is a case of catarrh of the stomach which had run for twenty-five years, according to his statement, and Peruna has at once come to his relief, promptly accomplishing for him more benefit than he had been able to find in all other remedies during a quarter of a century. It stands to reason that a man of wealth and influence, like a Congressman of the great United States, has left no ordinary means untried and no stone unturned to find a cure. If such cures as these do not verify the claim not only that dyspepsia is due to catarrh of the stomach, but also that Peruna will cure catarrh of the stomach, it is impossible to imagine how any evidence could do so. If you do not derive prompt and satisfactory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full statement of your case, and he will be pleased to give you his valuable advice gratis.

M03by sent word to the remnant of his old guerrilla band, who recently held their annual reunion at Leesburg, Va., that the pressure of public duty - would prevent him joining them. If Mcsby's memory remains active, the recent death of Col. Tichener of the board of gen eral appraisers at New York must have reminded him of an occasion when the pressure of private—extremely private and personal—duty caused hla absence from a place whero he was very much wanted. Ho has sometimes mentioned it, in these later years, as the "closest call" he ever had in his life. Tichener, who was a union officer in the civil war, had been sent out one night with a company in advance of tho army to skirmish and establish picket lines. Before he had gono very far he stumbled upon three men on horseback and cried: "Halt! Who goes there?" Two of the men wheeled instantly, galloped away and escaped; the third hurried forward, throwing up his hands and screaming: "I surrender! I surrender!" Tichener was much annoyed. He could not shoot a man who had voluntarily made himself a prisoner of war, and the direction taken by the others was such that he should have risked hittlns his prisoner if he fired upon the two fugitives; so he had to let them go and bring his one prizo into camp. The captive proved to be a local preacher who knew the country so well that the confederates had pressed him into service as a guide, and he revealed the fact that one of his companions was a confederate officer and the other the guerilla Mo*by, who, in the then state of feeling within the union Hues, would undoubtedly have been given short shrU't and hanged. Mcsby afterward met Tichener and to'd him that ho did the liveliest running that night of any time in his adventurous career. STATS or OHIO, CITY or TOLEDO, J CO LUCAS COUNT*, fS3, Frank J.

In London a gentleman of high rank, whose name has not been revealed, recently became insane on the subject of religion. He saw gods and goddesses in all sorts of inanimate things and spent hours on* his knees adorlttft them. Eminent physicians regarded his case as hopeless, an.d,he was placed In the charge of two attendants, who were instructed to take him to a lunatic asylum. Just as they were about to start, however, the unfortunate man jumped from a high window and fell with a crash on the pavement. He was severely bruised, but in a few weeks not only were his wounds healed, but his religious mania also entirely disappeared. The physicians say that his reason was restored to him by the violent shock, and they assert that such an occurrence is unprecedented in the annals of medicine.

UNCLE TOM'S CABIN f TJNCLE TOM'S CABIN" never grows old. There runs through It a vein of pathos peculiarly touching and sweet. It .speaks the universal language of the heart. It reflects, like a prism, the innermost phases of humrvn emotion. It is more than a play; it is a moral classic. It irguea far two of the greatest themes that Can engage the mind — human liberty, and immortality of the soul. It is so pure that iU touch alone is chastening. Like the kiss of a child, it conquers by the very innocence of its breath. In the character of Kva, it is unique. Who does -not cherish in memory some swe#t, angelic child who seemed to touch this earth 9 only as a transient visitor who pas>ea away with the dew of childhood's morning — too good, too pure, for us? " Was there ever a child like Eva? Yes, but her name is written on gravestones."^ This good old play is unique because it is the only one that portrays that character, fhe scenery is excellent. In the river scene, one sees the floating cakes of ice slowly moving down stream. One can see, in the splendid perspective of this scene, several miles up the frozen river, and the undulating snow-clad hills jn either side lie like drowsy sentinels in the ioggj Winter day.

It is good red wheat and if any of the farmers wish some, will sell it if taken promptly. Out' thing we wish to say, wherever you get yonr seed wheat get the red wheat. The per cent on red wheat raised this year ie very small and as white wheat can not be ground by itself we would not be able to use as larsje a per c» nt of our home crop a« we could if more m l wheat were raised. We think red whoat is a nioie desirable wheat for the farrier to raise tukiny all poiuts in consideration. It looks like better ana bigger wheat crops now again and a change ot seed from a different soil will help as much to the desired in wheat raising us anything else. F. M. PETERS, P r o p .

His idea was that it should first be demonstrated that the desired results could be accomplished. The Fighting Fifth Michigan Infantry elected Col. J. S.

To Opei t b a Miaea. /Hurried preparations are said to be making throughout the anthracite region for the reopening of the mines. There is to be no interference now from J. riernont Morgan, the operators are assured, and it is fight to the finish between mine owners and strikers. The purpose is to start the mines one by one, get the coal in the market and then to crumble the strike to pieces gradually. The-yaHway presidents ace said to realize the danger which may come from further prolonging the existing situation, and are reported to think tnat they can avert danger in the way above mentioned. Their view Is that the public la not so much interested in the fate of the Mine Workers' Union as in the advancing price of anthracite. They think th.it if they cap start the collieries and get enough coal to supply the demand, keeping prices below abnormal figures, that the public quickly will lose interest In the fate of the miners, and tlurt when-the strike finally goes to pieces the operators will have won their point over the union. Their uex;t move-, it is said, would b» to grant a 5 per cent Increase of Wiges, to jthe men, not .through the utilon, and thus salve t h e feelings of the workmen. District President Nichols of the United Mine Workers, says: "Everything looks very favorable to us. The men remain firm. Why, we will surety hold out until the snow flies. The biggest strike in the coal regions lasted six months, and we will certainly break that record. We have not been idle four months yet, and as reports from ail districts show the miners.to be firm and determined to win, you will see little coal mined this year unless a settlement is made." Cuba's Finances. Fifteen millions are estimated as the Cuban government's expenditure In the national budget, which will be presented to congress next month, and the national income is placed at $18.000.- 000, the same as during the military occupation. This provides a surplus of $3,000,000. Confidence is steadily increasing in President Pal ma's ability to cope with the situation. The senate bill providing for a national loan of $35,000,000 which went to the house of representatives two weeks ago, is still in the hands of the house committee. The sugar planters strongly favor the $4,000,000 loan in aid of agriculture, but are indifferent regarding the proposed loan of $;tl,000,000 to . pay back salaries to the army. Members of the disbanded army, on the contrary, support the larger loan, but are lukewarm concerning the smaller. It is generally believed that the interest and principal of the smaller loan could be taken care of under present conditions, but that the payment of the larger loan would require an additional revenue, to be raised probably by a stamp tax. * Has No A*tliorltr< -"Speaking or Gen.

United States Senator Marcus A. Ha mm says of the eonl-aimeTS' strike which he tried-to settle: " I have exhausted my efforts.' I hitve 4one all in my power and can do no~moxe. I will make* no further attempt, tot It would be useless." He said there was no chance of arbitration so long as only one side, the miners, were willing to arbitrate. He gave it as his opinion,that the miners will not give in so long a s they are able to fight. "It will not b e a short fight," said lie. "It will be prolonged and such prolongation will mean not only hardships for the miners and the women and children dependent on them, but it will have Its effect on the American people. The longer this struggle continues the greater will be the increase in tlie price of coal." Ohio Letrlslatur*. The Ohio legislature convened at 3 p. in. in extraordinary session to enact laws to provide for the government of municipalities and to restore lost juris-, diction to the Supreme Court. In his message Gov. Xash first calls attention to the act passed last May. depriving the Supreme Court of nearly all appellate jurisdiction formerly possessed by the court. The repeal of the act Is recommended. The governor also tracey briefly the history of constitutional government of municipalities in Ohio and advises that the legislature ignore the requests for a •constitutional convention. He submits bis ideas of the necessity of the situation In the form of JV municipal code bill, .tho enactment of which he recommends, and that no other legislation be considered. Horrible Sulfide. Apparently driven frantic by the fear that she might some tyne become Insane, Mrs. John McCurdy, of Chi-' cago, u bride of less than three months, killed herself in a peculiarly shocking manner. Having first undressed she put on a night gown, climbed to the top of the dining roamtable and having placed her mouth oyer one of the jets on the chandelier tied her head firmly by means of heavy cords wound tightly around her neck. Then she turned on the gas. When her husband came home he found her dead. . Letters the woman left behind led to tlie belief that she was mentally distressed. •She was 38 years old. Wtlt He D o It? Arthur J. Rowley, of Akron, who has been prominent fn Ohio Republican affairs for many years, and who Is a neighbor and friend of Gen. Charles!

Said lie: "If Senator Hanna intends to rotfre, as I understand he does, ft in easy t o understand why he refuses at this trme to announce the fact. Mr- Hanna desires that Gen. Dick shall succeed Mm when h e Is ready to step ont of the senate and by allowing it to be understood that he will be a candidate for re-election, other aspirants are kept out of. the race until Dick has a chance to get his fences well up." Aid of Co nitre* 1 Invoked. President Roosevelt will be asked to call a special session of congress to take action toward the coal strike. This was decided at a meeting of the central federation union, representing 200.000 worklngmen. A mass meeting under the auspices of the labor unions of Xew York city and vicinity will bo held at which resolutions will be adopted urging President Roosevelt to immediately call congress <to meet and debate on plans which will bring the strike to a speedy termination. A Strong- Navy. v In a brief address at Haverhill, Mass.. Tuesday, President Roosevelf said: "Our navy is now efficient: bur we must be content with no ordinary degree of efficiency. Every effort must be made to bring it ever nearer to perfection. In making such effort the prime factor Is to have at the head of the navy such an official as your fe'.Iow-towbsman, Mr. Moody; and the next is to bring home to our people as a whole the needs of thorough and ample preparation in advance; this preparation to take the form not only of continually building ship*, but of keeping those ships in commission under conditions which win develop the highest degree of efficiency fn the officers and enlisted/men aboard, them."

The law of gravity, of explosives, of health, of contract, of commerce, of art—these laws, heeded, become allies. To observe public morality find* public approval. And he who obeys God, has Qod's approval. All obedience, so far as such, works its appropriate results. There are no gratuitous or unoovenanted rewards, nor any accidental penalties. Mercy moves in its own orbit Each side of tangible sin keeps its own boundaries. Inner forgiveness does not remit overt penalty* Bestltutioa amends such offences, but also some scars are worn to the grave. Rescue does not restore the external status.

We must recognize that all things are in God and that God is in all things, and we must learn to be very attentive in order to hear God speaking in His ordinary tone without any special accent. A man must not stop listening any more than praying when he rises from his knees. No Wrought by Prayer Prayer is as multitudinous in form as are human conceptions of the Deity. No matter how primitive man's condition, we find the instinct of prayer to, and propitiation of, Ideal powers more or less, developed. All men pray.; but all men do not dignify their aspirations with the name. of prayer.

Human law touches little else save that which concerns man in his person and property; it has to leave the deepest moral vindication for the world to come. Both for warning and consolation, we are taught to look toward celestial justice as the intrinsic thing/. The end is not here. Looking past relentless shocks of mechanism, past the grimly beautiful exactness of the physical order, looking on to God's moral disclosures of the ends which transcend mere force, we shall escape both a false confidence and a needless foreboding. By-andby, hearing the upper parts, we shall catch the harmony that now Is only figured with this mysterious bass.

"I will hearken what the Lord God will say concerning me." God has special confidence for each soul. Indeed, it would seem as though the deepest truth came only in moments of profound devotional silence and contemplation of the devout.—Oharles H. Brent. is, in the deepest sense, prayer. All great thinkers—those who have delved deepest into the laws of human nature—have recognized both the perfect naturalness and the beneficent results of prayer. "Prayer is the soul's breatiing function," says Drummond; and "More things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams of," affirms Tennyson, devout and lifelong worshiper.

What is known as the "Bug lighthouse" is gituated on a hill near Monomoy, on the south side of Nantucket harbor, and at the time when the island was at the height of its fame as a whaling port was considered an invaluable guide to vessels entering the harbor at night. It ranged with the light on Brant Point in such a manner as to indicate the channel entrance; but. for over twenty years it has not been used at all, the shifting sands of Nantucket bar and the buildings of the jetties bringing it several hundred feet out of range. The name "Bug" was applied to the light by the old mariners as a nickcame, evidently from its resemblance to a fire fly when seen at a distance. However, the government still retains the lighthouse and is willing to pay a man $1 a year to live there. The keeper has no work to do, but is allowed to keep hens and breed cats for a livelihood, Mr. Gibbs is one.^pf Nantucket's eccentric characters and lives alone, coming to town only when his stock of provisions is getting low. —He is a native of the island, early life learned the cooper's trade, afterward going whaling for over twenty years, and made several voyages "round the Horn/' visiting nearly every sea on the globe.

Despite his threescore and ten years he even now hires out to neighboring farmers in baying time, and is an expert berry picker, claiming he can pick more berries in a day than the liveliest youngster on the island. Mr. Gibbs wears neither shoes nor stockings in the summer time, but in the winter resorts to the old-fashioned leather boots. He says he does net get lonesome, for his cats keep him company, and he always has one event to look forward to each year— the coming of his check in July, when he indulges in a few delicacies for his table and one or two heads of tobacco for his enjoyment during the long winter months. 5* " I " " * * , " , .

In fine, I hardly know who are most to be pitied, the rich or idle and lazy who underwork, or the very poor who must overwork to live. The former grew flabby or tense, according to their heredity, in both muscle and mind, become fastidious, finnlcky and sentimental, are especially prone .to yield to temptations to drink and of sex excesses, must aimlessly change their interests, location and pursuits from sheer ennui; are easily bored and finally lose the power of being strenuous about anything. The effects of an inactive life upon the offspring are sometimes sadly and markedly degenerate. V The overworked^ especially if young, are prone to many forms of arrest. Children are undergrown in both heighth and weight; they are robbed of the paradise of leisure, which is the literal translation of the Greek word school. The high ideals and ambitions normal to adolescence fade into a dull state of apathy and discouragement, and, at worst, of smoldering revolt against the existing order of things. To be always tired is miserable, and individual or social misery is a powder magazine liable to explode at any time. Man is endowed with a fatigue sense that tells him he is tired, continues a writer in Ainslee's. It seems to be a specific feeling, due perhaps to accumulated products of decomposition in the muscles. This pain-tire is a warning to stop or let up. It is, however, possible to press on in defiance ot it, and if we persist in so doing there comes a point when this fatigue sense is itself fatigued and tired out and ceases to act. This is when runners get their second breath; when those beginning night work have fought through the period of sleepiness that comes when they have wont to go to bed and feel very wide awake and alert as if they could go on forever. But the day of reckoning comes. They are now living on their capital, which is being rapidly overdrawn. WOLCOTT'S BIG LUCK IN GAME OF POKER. Senator Wolcott is said to be one of the coolest of men when engaged in a game of poker. In describing his play, Albert Watson of Denver said: "The senator once found himself in a game of poker where three of the other players were playing a 'sure game.' They were professionals, and were after a big bundle of money Wolcott -had in his possession, as well as looking for that which a fifth player, a mining operator named Durkin, was known to have. "Wolcott knew in twenty minutes after the first hand was dealt that the intention was to rob him, and wearied his wits in tryi&g to find a way to get out of the game without making trouble, but he could not do i t At last he was dealt a pat flush of diamonds, made up of the five, seven, eight, nine and jack. "He skinned the cards over and did a mighty piece of thinking. He felt in his bones that a flush would be of no account in the world when it came to a show down, but he chipped in to draw cards. "He pondered a long while between discarding the five spot or the picture, and at last tossed away the jack and called for a card. The dealer looked astonished at his wanting any, but gave a card. "Wolcott picked it up and found that he had got the six spot of diamonds. He never turned a hair. The betting began, and he nursed his sequence along, letting the other felloes do the raising. At last It got down to Wolcott and one of the professionals. "Finally there was a call, and the other man showed four queens. Wolcott laid down the five, six, seven, eight and nine of diamonds and swept in the money. The game stopped right there. I reckon that was the greatest piece of luck any man ever had in a poker game." • tfWMWW¥^^W^^MMMMMW/W<WA^VMWWA^ft^WW^^A^^^W^W^A^^A^^MMVM HIGH COST OF LIVING. Prodigality Has Reached a Stage That Is Almost Epidemic It seems to cost a great deal to live nowadays) Most persons notice it, especially persons who are- hard put to it to find the money to pay their bill, says Harper's Weekly. The statisticians report that commodities in general use cost on an average, about 10 per cent more than they did a year ago. The rise in the price of meat contributes a good deal to this advance, though breadstuff's have been high, too. Articles of luxury have grown dearer in proportion than most articles of necessity, because the huge influx of money that the country has sustained has made a brisk market for luxuries. Rents are higher; houses cost more; servants get higher wages; board is highen at summer totels. Another thing that counts for a great deal is that in prosperous times like these the incomes of very many people are Increased and their expenditures are proportionately amplified. They spend more money, live nore luxuriously and raise the stand- \rd of living. The living expenses of my aiven family are very much affected by the expenses of other families of their acquaintance, and the scale of living of "other families" seems just now to have become inconveniently liberal. There is nothing that we are readier to share than our economies. It is easier to economize when it is the fashion. Just now prodigality is so conspicuous that is has become more or less epidemic. - The Difference. An American girl, pretty and bright had been spending some time in Leamington, England. The afternoon before her departure she suddenly remembered that several books from the public library should be returned.

All sorts of stimulants to tbe appetite were first served up, and eggs were indispensable to the first course. Among the various dishes we may instance the guinea hen, pheasant, nightingale and the thrush as birds most in repute. The Roman gourmands held peacocks in great estimation, especially their tongues. Macrobius states that they were first eaten by Horteusius, the orator, and acquired such repute that a single peacock was sold for 50 denarii, the denarius being equal to about eightpence halfpenny of our money,—Chambers' Journal.

Another he recognized as the men and as they all stopped he handed him the recommend saying, "Is this Mr. Town?" "Thats my name, sir." "I came to see if you had hired a teacher." "Yes, we have hired one and couldn't very well hire two." At that the old white haired man says, "and especially such a d d fool as you."

A Philadelphia man has been asleep ten days. Nothing like the profound quiet of that town to induce slumber. Those who have investigated the noiseless * mosquito say it is fully equipped in all its business departments. The Fair relatives have been so busy quarreling over the $10,000,000 estate that they have had no time to shed tears. A leading American actress has just ordered fifteen wonderful Paris gowns for the elevation of the drama next winter. It is said that the Chinese, although a musical people, have no national air. Mr. Sousa should promptly remedy this deficiency. By this time King Edward should be well enough accustomed to his new crown to leave it on the hatrack when he goes in to dinner. CHAPTER V.—(Continued.) "Who," "The very men who robbed me." The reaction which came over the old man was terrible to witness, tie reealized that after all he might lose his beloved captain, whose life was still In danger, for he was once more a prisoner. "Well, well, all may yet be lost!" he sighed. "Crack-lash, let's go and hunt him. Now that we know he is alive, we got something to hunt for. and well hunt him. Come, Crack* lash!" After considerable persuasion Paul induced him to wait until next morning; so they built a camp fire and prepared to pass the night. Next morning they w*»re early astir. They had packed their knapsacks and were about ready to start, when Paul suggested: "Perhaps the walrus hide will tell something about this mystery. Let us take a look at it." He unrolled the walrus hide, and, the ex-sailor, who had long studied the picture writing of the Alaskan Indians, bent over it and began to slowly and carefully decipher the pictures. The old man had to put all his knowledge of picture writing to the severest test to read. He made out that the captain had discovered rich gold diggings, but the walrus hide could give them no hint as to the whereabouts of the three men and their prisoner. Paul suddenly rolled up the walrus hide and stuffing it in his knapsack, said: "That piece of hide is a key to millions, I have no doubt, and in all probability the scoundrelB were trying to uakc him give it to them." "Let's go, Crack-lash. Let's go, fur 1 itch to git my fingers about the throats of the cusses." They hastily packed up, broke [ camp and were soon on their way up tho mountain, engaged in a dangerous search, the result of which they knew t.'i be doubtful. for the bold men who had robbed the youth, One night as they sat about—their cheerful Are, there came a rap at the door of their shanty, and they found Dick Ronold asking admission.

Young Willie K. Vanderbilt says he's going to quit being an automobile scorcher. He must know of some other fast game that is less dangerous. One of the old settlers says Chicago is derived from an Indian word meaning strong. Perhaps ihe Indians got their first impression from the stockyards. The crown that King Edward wore for a short time may be worth $4,500,- 000, but there is no question that a 50- cent hammock hat is much more comfortable. A man in Topeka went to a dentist to have a tooth filled and robbed t'ne dentist of all his gold. Evidently the dentist didn't properly kill the patient's nerve. Commend us to the Paris Matin for journalistic gallantry. The only thing "doing" in the world of continental news, and the story killed at the request of a woman! No father of a 5-year-old will say that the $10,000 just paid by a New Jersey street railway company for causing the loss of a little girl's hand in a trolley car accident was too much.

Clarence staked out a claim and went to digging. It was a slow process and the reward was poor. He took out a little gold, but not nearly er.ough to pay him for the hardships. Then came reports of the wonderful finds in the Klondyke district. "Now is your time, Clarence," said Ethel. "Go at once and make all you can, while there are so few in the country." "What shall I do with you?" he asked. "Leave me behind." "Ethel, I cannot think of doing that," he declared. "You must, Clarence. I will follow as soon as possible, but hasten on now and stake out a claim for us. Stake out two, one for you and one for me. I feel that this is the turning point in our careers." And so it proved. It was the saddest day of his life when Clarence Berry bade adieu to his young wife and started alone for the distant miring camp. The parting of the husband and wife, as the reader may imagine, was affectionate, but there were no tears. Ethel restrained them and smiled cheerfully as long as she was in sight, to run into her shanty and have a little cry the moment she could see him no more. The river, which must be crossed before she could reach the Klondyke, was already beginning to show signs of floating ice, and she knew it would only be a short time before it would be completely frozen over. So she worked with a will and got everything packed and started on the little steamer "Arctic" for the new land of gold. Her husband and his party joined her on the way up the river. It was late in the season when this devoted, daring couple struck gold -of any consequence. Then it came in a torrent. All through the winter Clarence Berry was piling up wealth. His wife was at the mines every day, and as the great chunks of frozen earth were dumped on the ground her fair Angers were busily at work picking' out .the nurrets. During the season she picked out ten thousand dollars' worth of golden pebbles with her fingers. Though absorbed in gold digging, she never forgot Paul, who. with Glum Cracklash Paul, who used to live back there la Fresno?" "Yes. Paul Miller," cried Ethel eagerly. "We know him. What of htm?" "You know they've got one of the fellows tight an' fast who tried to help! do up Paul. Well, the feller's cocoa>aince that night's been a little rancid. I was set to guard him last nlgbXaM his menlAl train for a minute or two seemed on the track. Then I remembered seein' him in 'Frisco. His name is Belcher and he's one of the men that the feller from Fresno called Lackland hired the room in Frisco to talk with* At the sound of Lackland's name Ethel was on her feet, gasping: "Lackland! Lackland! Clarence, he is Paul's rival and enemy! I am determined to see this prisoner called Belcher." "When do you intend to call on him?" "To-morrow." "I will go with you," said Clarence. Ethel Berry, with her husband, entered the prison and gazed at the pale yet fierce face of the prisoner, and cried: "I know him, Clarence; I know him! I saw him in Fresno in consultation with Theodore Lackland. They have planned the murder of poor Paul." With a fierce oath the prisoner leaped at his fair accuser, but the strong young husband seized him by the throat and hurled him to the opposite side of ihe room. • • * • • Two men, worn, tired and haggard, surrounded by mountains of ice and great sleeping glaciers, had halted in a valley where a few stunted pines reared their heads above the eternal snow. "Let us rest. Crack-lash," said the older of the two travelers. "I give in, shipmate.. Your wind's better'n mine, for you see my old hulk is gittin' waterlogged o' late years, an' can't make as good headway as it used to, you know." The travelers were Paul Miller and his quondam sailor companion, Glum Ralston. Paul Miller gathered some dry pines and made a fire on the mossy banks of a stream which ran close under the cliff. The dry wood sparkled and snapped, and the blaze threw out a ruddy light. The pot boiled and he put on beans to cook with a little meat, and soon had an excellent supper. "Ah, mate, that is good," said the ex-sailor, as he tasted the coffee. "We're running rather short of feed, though, and if we don't come upon a moose or reindeer soon I'm afraid we'll suffer." "Never fear, Glum, some kind of game will come our way." Wrapped in his blanket, he sat at the root of a tree still talking to Paul, who was half asleep, when they were startled by a snort. In an instant both laid their hands on their rifles. A pair of fiery eyes gleamed at them and Paul, whose vision was keener than his older companion, saw a small animal about four and a half feet in height, which in the dim, uncertain light appeared to be a connecting link between the ox and sheep. Glum Ralston lifted his gun to his face and fired. There instantly followed a bellowing roar and a rush of feet. The fire was scattered in every direction and^ the old sailor, who was rising to his feet, was struck a blow which sent him sprawling on the ground. . Paul dropped his gun, and snatching a pistol, fired a shot into the thick hide of the furious beast, just behind the shoulder blade. It made one spasmodic leap forward and fell dead, the bullet having penetrated its heart. The old sailor was staggering to his feet, shaking himself to see if he had any broken bones. "Are you hurt? Are you hurt?" cried Paul, anxiously. "N-no, I think not. It was a fall broadside though, and how the horns missed ripping me from stem to stern is a mystery." Paul threw on some fresh sticks of pine and the fire blazed up, revealing the beast he had slain lying but a few paces away. Its long brown and black hair gave it the appearance of of a bear. The old sailor walked up to it and said, philosophically: "Its flesh is good for food, and will keep us alive a goed long time." Two days after they had killed the musk-ox they came again upon a dim trail, and again began to take heart. The trail led them through an unknown pass toward the seashore. "Cracklash, they're goin' seaward," said the ex-sailor. "I can smell salt water already, and I feel better for it" Three days later, as they were climbing over a hilltop, they saw twe men several hundred rode In sdranci and gave «hase. *- | They were within long rrfe^Jang* when the' two frgjtive* discovered them and begad to run. < ~ The two men darted late a ravine and they saw them no more.

Suddenly there came from beneath his feet a loud cracking sound' like the report of a battery of artillery fired in unison, and the great ice floe on which he stood began to tremble and rock. Dumb with amazement he stood and trembled with some unknown dread. It was several seconds before Paul comprehended his danger, and then it was too late. The ice floe with its glittering spires had parted from the shore and was drifting out to sea. Already it was too far for him to reach the land on which his companion stood wringing his hands in despair. A terrible death seemed staring him in the face, when a new danger arose. On his ears there burst a fierce growl, and looking up on an elevated portion of the ice floe rapidly drifting with him toward the sea, he beheld a monster polar bear glaring at him with the fiery eyes of rage and hate. "God have mercy on my soul!" the youth groaned, and prepared to meet his fate with the courage of a hero. glass, plunged his hand down to the bottom of the tub. A large crowd assembled round him, all very anxious to get a peep at his prise. His chagrin may be easily imagined when he found he had drawn an envelope containing a local hairdresser's business card, upon which was in* scribed: "One free hair-cut and shampoo.

Glum Ralston's Return. After the frantic effort on the part of Belcher to seize Ethel Berry for discovering him to^have been in Lackland's employ, the wounded man grew sullen. The miners were anxious to hang him and to have it over with, but'cooler heads prevailed. "It will never do," said Clarence Berry, "to destroy the only hope we have of recovering Paul's gold and solving this mystery, which deepens with every new development. Besides, we have had no lyncaing yet in the Klon- ( dyke, and let us not have any If we , siuKCi'. can avoid it." T One evening after the simple repast was over, Clarence and Ethel sat discussing the probable fate of Paul, who was never out of Ethel's mind. "Poor Paul, he must be dead," she said, her eyes filling with tears. "I must write to Laura; I must tell her his awful fate." After a few moments' silence he heaved a sig'a and said: "It will be very bad news." "She must know it some time, Clarence." "That is true, and perhaps the knowledge of his fate, awful as it is, will not equal the suspense." "I will write to-morrow. When can the letter get through?" "Not before spring—you need not hurry," he answered, with a sad smile, Suddenly the door was caused to quake by the thump from a giant fist, and, opening it, they found their nightly visitor, Dick, but he was not alone this time, Old Myers was at his side. The faces of the two men wore looks of anxiety. "What-is the matter?" asked Clarence. "We want yer gun, Clarence," said Long Dick, as soon as he could regain his breath. "I want to tell ye on the dead that there's either some man, a bear or old Nick up on the hill." Fearing their excited imagination had conjured up a monster from u wandering polar bear, though those animals were seldom seen in that part of the country, Clarence took down his Winchester Title and accompanied his companions to the foot of the hill, where the mysterious creature had been seen. A tall, gaunt object with a warm bearskin coat hanging loosely about his shoulders was coming slowly down the hill. The approaching stranger had his gun strapped on ayaln, for the .health I now enjoy."— his back. A hatchet was in the belt Mas.

The person to do It should have above all things faith in his undertaking and in himself. He must be convinced t that his work if right and then go ahead; This is no place to make a trial for fun or in a half-bearted- way. It U a Uttlft oi the genuine enthusiasm that is needed, arid that is bound to overcome difficulties should any be encountered. Then there should be an average amount of mechanical skill and the same amount of nerve. Clumsy fingers have no business in operating on a live fowl. If you are a little nervous at first it will do no hurt Your nervousness will wear off after you operate on two or three fowls and see how easy the Job is and apparently how little pain i t causes the bird. You must -have full confidence in your ability to do it just right, and then go alread without fear of trembling. And when you are once at it, it is far better to operate on all the birds ready for the operation in one day than fuss along with two or three every few days. The beginner is apt to be a little nervous wiien he goes for the first bird, but after he gets his hand in once everything moves off smoothly and nicely. His hand becomes steady and the work passes off rapidly. Of course it is an advantage if you can see some one perform the operation, even on a single bird. No more is needed to teach you the whole operation. We ourselves had to learn it from books and printed instructions —not very plain ones either—and succeeded beyond expectations. After a few days practical experience I thought nothing of caponizing twenty birds before .dinner. The operation indeed after you have once under* taken it and succeeded is an easy enough thing and causes but little pain and inconvenience to the bird if you do it right and with proper tools. A good set of tools of course Is utterly indispensable, and the person unwilling to expend $2 or $3 for them is not included in tbe list of persons who can safely undertake the operation.

Write tor ear booklet -How TO UAKS GOO Tames TO SAT.** Keeping Eggs for Hatching. Eggs for hatching need not bo turned every day; as some believe to be necessary. Eggs to produce chicks should not be kept so long that they would need treatment of this kind. If eggs are to be kept longer than a week they sLould be put in a dry place and kept at a temperature not to exceed 50 degrees if possible. Of course the temperature should not be low enough to permit the eggs to freeze. It is advised by some poultrymen not to use for hatching eggs that are* more than ten days old, as some of the chicks from older eggs will prove weak in constitution. In nature of course it is different. A hen lays a clutch of eggs in perhaps three weeks and then begins to sit. Of course some of the eggs are then three weeks old. But nature makes allowance for enormous -waste of material. Out'of those eggs many of the chicks that are born soon perish. Man tries to do away with the natural waste and even to t u n it into profit Sulphur Will Not Keep Eggs. The twenty Leghorn eggs, laid during five days May 12th to 16th, were, on May 18, 1899, packed small ends down, carefully separated, in finely powdered sulphur (flowers of sulphur). Result: Good, 0 per cent; bad, 100 per cent. On examination May 31, 1900, the shells of these egg3 appeared discolored or darkened. The air cells were doubled in size and were mouldy within. In most cases the albumen was intact. The yolks wore thickened. These eggs had not kept wellf*but were not rotten. The flavor was stale.—R. I. Station. Time to Start Incubators.

A candidate for a county office has introduced a novel and what seems to be a very useful plan in electioneering, says the Portland Reveiw. In his rounds he takes with him in his buggy a competent plowman. When he hails a farmer in the field the plowman takes the plow or cultivator and the work goes right on while the farmer stands in the shade of the hedge row and listens to the tale thw candidate tells. It works like a charm. Some farmers would rather be talked to for a whole day in the shade than plod behind tbe implement. If the She! farmers of this county insisted on that rule most of their plowing would b e done for them. Get out your plow as the political ball will soon be rolling and you want something ready for 'em to do.

S t a r t l i a a - C h a r s * * Made Aaalaat One of tka Jarors. Frauk C. Andrews, by Ws attorney, Alex. J. Groesbeck, and his counsel- Fred A. Baker, filed with the Recorder's Court of Detroit, Tuesday, a petition to have the verdict of guilty set •aside. Forty-nine reasons are given, the euost important of which relates to t i e Alleged conduct of Juror George W. Bock. The examination of Bock in the Recorder's Court previous to his acceptance as a juror in the trial of Andrews is given in full. He swore that although he had ^expressed an opinion as to Andrews' guilt, It was on the street, and on the second day after the exposure. He believed there was no reason why he could not give the accused an impartial hearing. It is charged in Andrews' petition that Bock swore thus for the purpose of getting on the jury, and that he was* violently prejudiced agaInst Andrews lit support of the charge against Bock, affidavits are preseuted from Rev. Frederick Hewitt, rector of St. Thomas' Episcopal church; William R. Hope, William A. McCarron, Thomas Smith, Albert Ryckman, Roy Russell Mandy and Charles B. Unyues. William A. McCarron swears that ^ H H T ^ W B L I T MYSTORYT The FoUanlaa- -o« Mr*» lUnntn Lean* to m Search and Arrest. The mystery that surrounds the death of Ada Kluinp, of Lowell, who was poisoned by au alleged headache powder, led to a searching Investigation by detectives, assisted by Will Klump, husband of the murdered woman and, his brother Christopher. With untiring seal these men have pursued the clues that have"presented" themselves until they have wound around young Kerekus a chain of circumstantial evidence from which he will find great difficulty to extricate himself. Kerekus is a farmer whose little homo adjoins the farm formerly occupied by Will Klump and his wife. Across the road is the Kerekus homestead, where-Ben Kerekus. father of the susi>eeted mau, has resided for forty-five years. With these two families, Will Klump' and his wife were at no time on friendly terms. In facr, it is said that no neighbor.-with the exception of Mrs. Mary Miller, has entered'the home of the elder Kerekus on a friendly call in a half-score years. Hungarians by birth and of noble blood, odd and eccentric in their ways, they have never stood on sociable terms with their Lowell neighbors. Suspicion first pointed to young David P.

Thomas Smith swears that Bock •made the same remark to him that Mc- 'Oarron swears to. Smith's nephew, Albert Ryckman, a boy of 17, says he also heard the remark. Roy Russell Mandy swears that he was present -during Smith's conversation with Bock. Mandy heard more than the -others, according to his affidavit. He -quotes Bock as saying: "I have made application to get OP the Andrews jury, and if I succeed I will do all in my power to send the to Jackson," also "that he would like to sec Andrews work off some of the white from his hands." Taxes Heavily Boosted. According to President A. F. Freeman, of the state tax commission, that body has thus far this year Increased the assessed valuation of the state by no'leas than $58,000,000, while in addition there are enough reviews under way to guarantee a further increase before the end of the year of $40,000.- 000, making the total increase for 1902 practically $100,000,000. During the year 1900, the first after the commission was created, according to President Freeman, the assessed valuation of the state was increased ^56,000,000, <white in 1901 $18,000,000 tnore was added, making a total for the three years of $4G0.O00,O00. In order to «how the work accomplished by the commission, it is only necessary to state that during the thirteen years immediately preceding Its organization -only $3,000,000 worth of property had •been added to the tax roils. The assessment of Wayne county, a review of which has just been finished by President Freeman, disposes of the rel. when Klump had kicked him off the premises, he shook his fist in Klunip's face and said: "There will be a hereafter," but he was suspected because It wns discovered that young Kerekus had had trouble with every family that received a package of the deadly headache powders. This, coupled with the other circumstances, formed the first clue. Those receiving the powders were: Eugene Moey. Harmon Raymor, Mrs. Christopher Klump, Mrs. Will Klump. Mrs. Mary Miller and M. Merritt. With Moey. Kerekus had been involved in a law suit. Fie had serious difficulty with Merritt about some cattle. The trouble t>etween Kerekus and the Millers grew out of a strawberry deal, and with the Klumps the first dispute arose over chickens. The theory is that the distribution of the powders was the culmination of a deep plot concocted and carried out by the man who had declared vengeance on Will Kl»mp. It has been discovered that Kerekus possesses a druggist's mortar and that he is in the habit of compounding powders for his horses and cattle. The Investigation has likewise disclosed the fact that a Ix>weli' druggist some time ago placed a large basket of samples of headache powders in his store within reach of all visitors and patrons. One. and the vital point, remains unsolved. No druggist in Saranac. or any of the surrounding villages, has any recollection of having ever sold Kerekus anv strychnine. On this point the whole energy of the sheriffs force is centered. was brought back to Kalamazoo, chrtrged with forging the name of CJ.

Visitors who have gone there PAGAN RITES IN SCOTIA. Many Scottish Customs That Have Their Origin in Superstitions. Nearly all travelero in Central Africa ha>re referred to the curious customs prevalent among almost all pagan native tribes of driving quantities of nails into sacred trees and other objects that have been adjudged worthy of veneration, and Ihis not in malice, but as a religious rite, the nails in question being intended as votive offerings: Exactly the same thing may be witnessed to-day at the sacred well of St. Maebruha, in Loch Maree, RoBSshire, where is an ancient oak tree studded with countless nails of all sizes, the offerings of invalid pilgrims, who came to worship and be cured. Pennies and half-pennies also are to be seen in enormous quantities driven edgewise in the tough bark, and a friend of the writer's who visited the spot some little time back discovered in a cleft high up in the trunk what be took to be a shilling. On being extracted, however, it proved to be counterfeit. Probably the donor, finding that he could get | no value for his coin in the natural world, concluded he might as well try, as a last resource, what effect U might have on the spiritual. Of course, the poor cottars and others who flock to S t Maebruha with their nails and their pence do not for a moment admit that they are assisting at a pagan ceremony. But they most undoubtedly are. Well worship has always occupied an important place in paganism, and the sacred oak, before which each pilfer their summer rest and returned enamored of Its rustic beauty will readily recognize "Vineland Resort," grim must thrice kneel ere humbly presenting his offering—what is it but an obvious survival of the sacred groves of Druidical times? RANG THE CHURCH BELL. And Sent In Order From Pew Twenty- One. A belated tourist from Florida says that it is almost impossible to understand how great \va3 the rush of visitors at the height of the season. He says that a man came one day to one of the big hotels and was told that there wa3 not room for him in the house, but a place to sleep would be made up for him in the memorial chapel on the hotel, grounds. He said that would suit him all right. By bed time he had all that was coming to him in the way of unsolidified refreshments. When he woke up in the morning he looked for a push button, and finding none he wandered out into the vestibule. There he saw the bell rope and tolled the belf until a man opened the door and asked him what was the matter. "Bring me a cocktail and a siphon of carbonic, and be quick about it," said the guest, "and charge it to Pew 21." with its quiet lake and picturesque surroundings. The photograph is by Moyer and Gates, South Haven, Mich. time. The tree is seven feet in diameter and has been a great place for | picnics for many years. Congressman Holman many years ago found some ancient French coins and other relics near the tree. When Pere Marquette in 1672 made his great exploring and missionary tour through the North American possessions of Louis XIV. he made the descent of the Kankakee river and it is a well authenticated fact that he set up an altar under the branches ct this tree and celebrated mass. The tree then stood in the center of the grove, but from year to year the river has cut in until it now washes the roots of the venerable king of the forest. Every effort is being made to preserve the tree, but some of the limbs are dead and others dying. Astute Italian Dramatist. An Italian dramatist, unable to persuade any manager to produce his play, gave a public reading of it.

FAMOUS MARQUETTE TREE. Branches Once Sheltered Altar of Noted French Missionary. There stands in Cougar's grove, near Kankakee, what is doubtless the most famous tree in the confines of the state. It is believed to be over 500 years old and its gnarled branches have sheltered many noted man in its Cemetery Devastated by Flood. A local rain storm almost as violent as a cloudburst descended In Madison, N. J., and played havoc with Hillside cemetery. A portion of the burying ground, 400 feet in length, and 50 feet in width, was washed out to a depth of from 10 to 15 feet, and 100 coffins Were torn from their graves. Some of the remains were buried beneath sandbanks formed ry the rush of waters, while others, it is believed, were carried into the waters of the Passaic river. The cemetery is an old one and has been in use since before the revolution. Unable to Rise. Morencl, Mich., Sept. 8th.—Mr. J. S.

After leaving the bridge we enter at once into farming lands but like the most h a m paRRfid..tkcQUglLiJ)gre. is a, superfluity of water but it is better than the "hot winds" that occassionally visit this state. The crops look well and as in Iowa see an abuudance of corn and oats The farther you get into the state however, the less grain you will see and the more pa9tu re and hay fields. While visiting our aunt in O'Neill, Neb., we drove several miles into the country aud saw fields containing several hundred acres each of corn and oats, but most was pasture and meadows. These consist of thousands of acres of un-broken lands which are covered with buffalo grass, which furnishes an abundance of very rich pasture, and while it does not grow very high, it is very thick on the ground. There is a ranch near O'Neill where they have dug a large ditch from the river through the lands for miles making a stream of running water for the cattle. This increases the value of the lands very much as water is one of the prime lequiites of the ranch. We do not hesitate to s;iy that we were not as well pleased with the couutry as we were with Iowa, but there is a future for Nebraska, and a few years will see many improvements. There is a big chance for improvement in one particular and that is in the saving of manure. We saw thousands of loads of manure drawn on the roads and dumped to be trodden down and wasted. It was not because the land does not need it, as it certainly would improve it and make it worth much more. We were surprised to know that in this section a team can be driven from 75 to 90 miles a day and nothing is thought of even driving 100 miles, eating breakfast and supper at home. The roads are good and there are no hills to climb. The village of O'Neill is the county seat of Holt county and contains about 1,100 people and is a good businees center. The main public buildings are the court house, public school and St. Mary's Convent. The Convent has been established only a little over two years but there are now employed eleven Sisters and all branches are taught up to the eleventh grade, also music and 7 drawing and they expect to add china painting the coming year. Banks and real estate men prosper in O'Neill as there is plenty for thorn to do. When a stranger arrives in the village it will not be long before they will be on his track to sell him lands, and thousands of acres change hands every year that has never been seen by some of the owners. One of the pleasant places in the village is Brennan's Park, a plat of about four acres which contains trees of every kind and much fruit, apples and plums predominating. There are several walnut trees in bearing also. T h e walks are lined with flowers which were in full bloom, and although they were the "Bouncing Bettie" they presented a pretty appearance. We do not doubt for a moment that there is a good tjhance for *» moqey making in Nebraska, but as far as we are personally concerned we prefer Michigan for a home. There are many fine residences in O'Noill but one will be stir- * W. C. T. If- \ Edited by to* W\ C. T T\ of Pfrckoey A prised to find that they are nearly all one-story houses. This is of course on account of the winds making it dangerous for a two story house. The old "sod house" is a thing of the past in this section and it was not our good fortune to get sight of one while in t h e W e s t . '"" •••••--*•-— One thing we noticed not only in O'Neill but in all places we visited while West was that when we were introduced as from Mi chigan some one would make a remark about the University at Ann Arbor and college at Ypsilanti and in every place we found graduates from both places and more who were coming east this winter to enter them. This made us proud to be a resident of Michigan. When we left O'Neill for home we only remained a few more days in Iowa. We were much pleased with our trip west and as we have been asked personally by a good many "what state wo liked best" we might as well say here that for all things Iowa pleased us the most, but as it is mostly all settled theie is not the chance for investment in lands that there is farther west. There are many chances west for the young man with brain and brawn and we think the advice of HoraceGreely a good one: "Go West young man, go west, and grow up with the country."

Some persons might think that eating fifty ears of green corn was about as pleasant a way to die as any. Prof. Schenk will always be remembered as the man who thought he was posted on the whims of the stork. A noiseless mosquito is no improvement on the other kind. It leaves him too much time for actual business. How many loving wives will envy Mrs. John R. prexel her birthday gift of a check for $200,000 from her husband. King Edward has confounded the soothsayers, and that's not a small job, even for a man who weighs 250 pounds. The Chicago discovery that the color yellow scares away mosquitoes won't help women to whom yellow is not becoming. Grand Duke Boris says Chicago is big and ugly, but good-hearted. The same thing may be said of John L. Sullivan. J. Pierpont Morgan, it is said, refuses to "tip" hotel waiters. This is another of the advantages, of being all-powerful. The work of amassing a fortune of $1S,000,000 cost Mr. Schwab his health, and it was not very hard work either. When last heard from the crown prince of Germany was beginning to eat solids and cast shy glances at other girls again. W. C.

As the Chinese rebels are being executed at the rate of 1,000 a day, it Is predicted that the rebellion will not last more than a year. The world at large hangs very little crape on its door for the scorchobolist who parts company with life at an 80-miles an hour gait. The man who tied dynamite to his sick dog and lost his house when the animal wagged his tail has by this time learned that cruelty does not pay. There are 600,000 Jews in New York, according to The Jewish World. That city can now present a pretty strong claim to being the New Jerusalem. HOME OF SHAKESPEARE K IfTdUlET STRATFORD. : > i f .

He received a few. in the yacht races. Mr. Schwab leaves his home in a private car, but just now he no doubt would be glad to trade-places with a man of sound nerves going to a picnic behind a team of mules. All other theories regarding the suicide of young Remington may be disregarded since the fact became known that his last act before the Khooting was an experience with a telephone. SXr' If the crow* prince of Slam hat read what the newspapers have been aaying about the crown prince of Germany be may think a second time before venturing into the American Url*a country. to the midmost region of the English midlands—to Warwickshire, which bis contemporary, Drayton, names "the heart of England"—and should have passed many of his days in London—"this mighty heart" as Wordsworth * calls It—thus bringing into connection ciyic with rural England in the experiences of his life, as he has done in the creations of his genius. -..„...• „..'.:. „.,„..„..„_,.„,,..„.., .,„.. ., The pilgrim to Stratford of today, who desires to become an, intimate of the poet, should, if possible, remain in the neighborhood long enough to hear the lapsing river murmur some of its secrets, to listen to the songs of birds, to gather wild-flowers of the meadows or the hedgerow, and to hold discourse with some plowman or shepherd or drover, or woman standing at a cottage door. These, perishing and renewed from moment to moment, from year to year, from generation to generation, are the true immortals, and Shakespeare saw the daffodil, which him to Stratford, and therefore he could not quit it tor London or for any visionary Cloudcuckootown. Critics may conjecture what they.please about bedstead; the indubitable facta are that her husband.looked forward to spending his years of ease and dignity in company with her who had been the wife of his youth, that he carried out his resolve, ctd that his favorite daughter inscribed on brass words in her mother's honor, which are full of affection, gratitude, and the sense of irreparable loss. We may add that in JShj^esjeaje's . latest „plajyj^ written perhaps during hiaStratiord retirement, there is a spirit of clear serenity —"the light-thrilled ether of your rarest skies"—incompatible with domestic unhappiness, and that never was his ideal of woman, of woman both in the budding years of life and in the years of advancing old age, more pure or more reverential than in these latest creations. With the tnought of Shakespeare at Stratford, mingles the thought oi some of'those drawn thither by the power of Shakespeare's name. It is pleasant to tread as one of a countless democracy, in the steps of Scot and Dickens, of Hawthorne—in spite of certain kindly follies perpetrated on behalf of poor Delia Bacon—and of that amiable humorist, "Geoffrey Crayon, Gent." Washington Irving's "Sketch Book" carries us back to a time when coaches still ran on, all the great roads in England, and country inns nad little sunshiny parlors, and sanded floors, and rubicund paternal hosts. It was at the Red Horse that he took his ease. The birth-place was shown by a garrulous old lady, who zealously exhibited the relics of the shrine—the veritable matchlock with which the young poacher shot Sii >lcnwnal 'takes the winds of March with beauty," and heard the lark singing "hymns at heaven's gate"' even as we may see and hear them tdlay. But structures of wood and stone decay, and except the church by the riverside, and a few venerable walls and roofs and modest interiors, little in Stratford remains as it was when Shakespeare's eyes surveyed his native town. The Guild Chapr-i, the Guild Hall (where Shakespeare saw stroliing companies of players, the first of which visited Stratford when his father was bailiff), and the grammar school may he viewed without any qualms of historical scepticism; and though Shakespeare may have smiled at the pedagogue, provided with Lily's grammar and the ferule, as compared with those greater teachers, Life and Love, and such a smile can fce perceived in the pages of "I^ove'« Labor Lost," still he cannot but have thought with gratitude of the education which .gave him his first entrance into the world of Roman history and classical mythology. Birth and »Death conduct tho Stratford pilgrim to the house In Henley street, and the church V? the Avon side, and it is t-tz>z£ a fact of some significance that where Shakespeare was born, there ho chose to die. In such a resolution lay some of that wise spirit of c o t w W m TYiJh Goethe Thomas Lury's deer, Shakespeare's tobacco box, the sword with which he played Hamlet, and other sacred objects, together with an ample supply of the famous Mulberry tree, which the Vicar of Frodsham, proprietor of New Place, maddened by the invasion of devotees, had shamefully felled. Relics such as those which were shown to the American pilgrim, and 4—a Shakespeare's School, 8tratford-on- Avon. expresses in the closing lines of Ms "Hermann and Dorothea"—he who cleaves fast to his thought molds the world to his will.'

The soil Is not permitted to dry out but retains its porosity. In that'condition the rain that falls enters it by way Of the trunks and roots of trees nad it thence soaks' away through the soil without disturbing the position of the particles of soil. In many cases, howeveY, the trees on these hillsides have been cut away and the" land used for plowed fields or for pastures. Where the grass has been kept in good state by an abundance of fertility, the damage has not been great Where the land has been plowed the soil has been exposed to destructive washing. How often has the heart of the farmer been made sad as he has inspected such fields after a heavy downpour of rain! The remedy is to use this land for something else than tillable ciops. Some farmers are turning sttch fields into forests. Where a man does not want to wait for a forest t» grow up he can plant an orchard, btttfsnch an orchard will have to be kepi1 in sod to keep the soil from washing. Probably this is as good a use as any to which it can be put Putting into grass is a good plan and one that will commend, itself to moat farmers. But such fields must not be pastured as that will weaken the sod and make gullying possible. The sod should be encouraged to thicken. To help this fertilise the hilltops and hillsides and do not take more than one crop of grass a year. Do :-.ot mow tne second growth but leave it to strec£then the roots. AMUSEMENTS IX DETROIT.

A bulletin of the Missouri stntlou says: Cow peas are harvested just as any other hay crop, being cut with an ordinary mower and cured and handled very much as you do clover. The vines are coarser than the clover plants and therefore somewhat more difficult to cure, but they have the advantage of resisting tne injury from rains to a surprising degree. In this j respect they are quite like sorghum ' and appear to stand quite a* much I rain. It is usually considered best to j commence cutting when the first pods begin to turn yellow on those varieties which seed here, or when the lower leaves of such a variety as the Ciay begin to arop off. But in actual practice it is well to select as far as one can, a dry time, at the season of the year that you have leisure to handle them. Cut regardless of the stage of maturity, although they cure easier and make better hay when fairly mature. Allow them to cure as much as possible in the swath, and every clover and pea grower ought to own a hay tedder, turn them with a tedder if possible while the dew is on so as to prevent the loss of the leaves and sheep—Good to choico wethers. $3 avft 1 either stack them or put them in the 8 75; fair to good choice mixed, $2 50&3 50; native Iambi.-, $3 50«i5 65. The Old Amphitheater, even more authentic relics, do not greatly help us to understand Shakespeare; but the fields, the hills, the river with sedgy margin or bordering willow and alder tell us/ of what he loved, and bring us nearer to Perdita and Florizel, the sheep-shearing feast, and the light-hearted and light-fingered rogue Antolycus. The corn is golden beside you. Meon Hill meets the sky in your front; its shoulder slants sharply to the church where Shakespeare's dust lies; away on the right is Broadway, lit with the sun; below is the ridge of Roomer Hill, yellow for harvest on the right, passing left- East Buffalo.—Cattle: Prices unchanged from \tift week's quotations.

"Hare you seen Paul Miller or heard.from him since you cam.e upon us la the pass,?" was one.; of tije first questions propounded by Clarence. "Yea," he answered. "Last I saw o* him fc\e was on aa Iceberg sailirV out t' sea. and his only fellow-passenger was a polar bear." * ' * , , . • • . • * It will be essential at this point to return to Paul Miller, whom we left on an iceberg floating out to so*. The swelling flood and tossing cakes of ice between, the drifting floe and shore made it. utterly impossible for him to reach land. The sharp growl of the monster above indicated that a crisis waa coming, which would determine, t a* rights of ownership to the mountain of ice. Through all his misfortunes Paul had managed to retain bis presence of mind and his rifle. He executed a skillful flack movement, and, scaling a shelf, waa several. feet above tho bear and not over twenty paces away, prepared for an assault With nerves aa Bteady as if engaging In the most ordinary sport, he leveled his rifle at the side of the monster's head. When sure of his aim he pulled the trigger. There followed a sharp report and the bear dropped on his haunches, his nose in the air. Paul cocked his rifle and fired a second shot at t i e beast's head. It fell on the ice and after a few spasmodic kicks lay still. He sent a third into the back of its head, but it was wholly unnecessary, for the other bullets iiad done the work. With his knife he removed the skin from the animal, and, climbing aa high as iie dared, bung it upon one of those spires of Ice, in the hope some sealing schooner or whaling ship might see it and send a boat to his relief. When night came he lay down on the snow and ice, and, notwithstanding his perilous situation, actually slept. He was awakened soon after dawn by the sound of voices near. "What say ye nou?" one seemed to say to another. "I say nowt," was the answer. "If he be there find him." "Sure, man, ye canna say as a bear will peel his own skin from his back." "Weel, there's a stiffener," returned another voice. Paul rose and mechanically laid his hand on the rifle at his side. Only a few hours before he was wishing he had not shot the bear, and that it had destroyed him instead of he shooting it, but now that his life might probably be in danger, it grew suddenly very sweet. He raised his head a trifle higher and listened intently at the voices. "Push alongside and let a lad go ashore," said another voice. Then he plainly heard the splashing of paddles in the water. He crept along on hand and knees, holding his rifle in one hand and a cocked revolver in the other. Then he raised his head just a little and saw a large canoe in which were half a score of dark-skinned Indians. Surprise and curiosity overcame any fear he might entertain of his visitors, and he arose and gaze? about' on the sea and shore. The glance filled him with wonder and surprise. The shore was lined with green trees, and afar off he saw a mountain towering so high its peak pierced the light blue clouds. He saw chimneys to houses from which the pale blue smoke was issuing, mingling with the atmosphere. It waa a brisk little village with men, women and children in it. but what brought peace to his troubled mind and relieved all fear was the little white church, with ita spire, on the hHlside. "There he is! There he is!" cried a young man in the canoe, pointing at Paul. "Ho, my brother, you ride on a 81range boat!" "Who are you?" asked Paul. "The Metlakahtla," was the answer. He tried to think where he had heard the name before, but was unable to recollect It. He was naked to come down to*' their canoe. They toaaed a rope to him, which he made fast to one of the great cakes of ice, and slid down to the boat The Ull chief stood up to catch him, and aa he dropped into hia anna amid: *Ttfy brcther, y . u are safe. You hare had a Tary,dangerous ride "It in not ap weal, that boot ya ride upon," put in another Indian, with a strong Scotch accent. The men with the paddles at once propefted the canoe away from the ice floe, and it glided out into the bay, straight for the village of Metlakahtla. The Island waa given by the .United States to a scanty.tribe of British American Inalias whom an old Scotch missionary had converted from utter savagery into a civilised and God-fearing, people. When the canoe touched the shore Paul saw an elderly white man In the throng. He waa dressed in the garb of civilization, and hia long, white hair and beard gave him a patriarchal appearance. His face waa grave and wud. _____ _ ; __ _ _; _ v 'Wjjfygojj- a k i n d Providence has wonderfully preserved you. We will go to church to return thanks for your great deliverance, and then we will hear your story. After songs and players Paul was taken to the home of the patriarch, where he fared sumptuously, after which he narrated his strange adventures to the good old missionary. "So you are another, my son, who has come to dig gold from the earth in the frozen north." Tien, taking the arm cf the youth, he led him from the house, and, pointing to that great old mountain, which, grim and gray, towered into the skies, and with his eyes wildly dilating, said: "In mockery, at the grim gateway of Alaska, towers that mountain of gold upon which no white man dares lay his finger. Paul gazed at him in amazement, aod began to wonder if he had not got among a race of madmen. "•How was the gold discovered?" he asked. "It's not discovered save by the Indians and perhaps one other than yourself. But come in and I will tell you what other white man than yourself knows of the island and the mountain of gold." When they were seated in the cozy parsonage the old missionary proceeded to tell Paul the story, but they were interrupted by the arrival of some Indians with a prisoner. The story told by Father Duncan we have heard before from the lips of Clum Ral3ton. No Booner did Father Duncan see the captive than he said: "It is one of the two sailors who did away with the poor captain." When Paul saw the prisoner he exclaimed: "Great Heaven! It is one cf the men who raptured the old hermit in the cavern!" CHAPTER VIII. Laura's Departure. While the many stirring events were transpiring in Alaska, poor Laura Bush was living a life of doubt, mingled with nope and despair, at Fresno, California. Not a line had she received from Paul since the letter came that he was robbed and wounded. Was he dead or was he still alive, struggling to regain what he had lost? It began to be whispered over the town that Laura Bush was losing her reason. Theodore Lackland was shocked and grieved at the thought, for in his selfish way he loved her , madly. He would have given worlds to possess this matchless beauty, who had wholly captivated his soul. At this time a most remarkable event transpired—an event that was more a surprise to Laura than any onf else. A bachelor uncle living in Wyoming died and left her twelve thousand dollars—all he possessed. "This will enable me to procure an outfit aud go in search of Paul," said Laura to Mrs. Miller. The widow enfolded her in her arms and begged her to abandon such a mad design. In vain she wept, prayed and plead with her. Laura was so impressed with the conviction that she must go. She had her way. Buying her outfit and securing the service of a faithful, trusty man who had worked for her father, she prepared for the journey. She had made her last trip to San Francisco and returned late one day, a short time before her departure. On reaching Fresno she started from the depot to walk home. It was so late the sun had set. and the shadows of evening began to creep over the landscape. She heard footsteps at her aide and Lackland's voice said: "Miss Bush, I have heard a rumor that you are going to start for Alaska." "I shall." He walked on in silence for a moment, while his pale face wore a pensive, sad expression, and his eyes were upon the ground. His determination to conquer made him selfish and scheming. At last "he said: "Laura, you do not understand me. I am a true friend to you; you may cot believe It, but 1 am. That other time my passion was hot. I was wrong, perhaps, in denouncing the man you loved, but surely you wift forgive me." 8he answered that she was taught she must forgive in order to be for* given. As a ^drowning man clutchea at a strawr he grasped at something in her words, and waa encouraged to add: "Laura, if you would let me sympajUattt with you In this loss, I would freely mingle at/ tea:* with yours. On? If. yon ,wqnld otriy let me be a •ESSS brother—more than a brothei "Silence, Mr. Lackland," she quickly interrupted. "I will hear no more from you. Here I^asa at home; goodnight" She darted Into the bouse, quickly closing the door after her and leaving hia standing ou| in the cold, dark FIFTY THOUSAND street For a moment he stood gazing upon the door which had cloned upon the being he loved, and then turned •slowly about, his thin, white lips compressed, and hia fingers closed firmly aa if he had the lojckjaw. As he boarded the midnight train for San Francisco he murmured, half audibly: "Something desperate must be done. I shall now jplay my last trump card." Meanwhile Laura was completing arrangements for an early departure. Ben Holton, her father's faithful domestic, waa the only person she engaged to go with her. A party was forming at Seattle, and thither she went with all her supplies. Mrs. Miller accompanied her that far. Here they found another brave woman— Kate Willis—ready to brave the dangers of the Klondyke. She was forty years cf age, large, strong, and had determined to go to Juneau or Dawson City to start a laundry. The vessel pushed off, and Mrs. Miller stood on the dock waving her handkerchief at the brave girl until distance mingled her form with the others, and then burst into tears. Theodore I*ackland was a deep schemer, and when he separated from Laura Kean h* had by no means abandoned hope of winning her. While on hia way to San Francisco he was continually saying: "So she is going herself to search for her lover! Is Paul dead—really dead? May it not be only a mistake after all? He is missing, that is sure, but the young fellow has more lives than a cat. I wish to Heaven I knew that he was " He started, and, shuddering, began to think how degenerated he had grown. Then he leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes, while the great train,., like a flying vulcan, rushed on in the darkness until the city of Oakland was reached. He went aboard the ferry, and wa3 transferred to San Francisco, and, leaping into a carriage, was driven to a certain hotel, where he secured a room. It was nearly daylight by this time, but notwithstanding be had slept none during the night, he summoned a messenger, wrote a note, and, sealing it, dispatched the boy. Two hours had passed, and the sun wa3 shining through the window, vrhen there came a light tap at his door, and he opened it. Before him stood a smooth-shaved man with hair that was once sandy, but so bleached with gray it was a roan. His nose and eyes were prominent, and bis face narrow, cheeks red and steel-gray eyes twinkled with something deep and devilish. The newcomer was a peculiarly nervous man who had a strange habit of craning his neck and bowing his head like an eccentric burlesque comedian. After assuring himself he was not being watched, he closed the door softly and in a voice that was softness itself asked: "You sent for me," and craned his neck like a choked rooster trying to swallow a morsel too large for its throat. "Yes, Capt. Fa+rweather, I want to talk with you. When does another ship sail for Juneau?" The captain, who was well up in marine intelligence, said: **There is the 'President1 sails from Seattle in three weeks, and the 'Occident' leaves here a few days sooner." "Will they both arrive about the same time?" "Yes, the 'Occident' a little ahead of the 'President,' as she is the fastest beat" "That i3 just as I want it. Now, captain, you secured men for me before to do some work in the Klondyke " Again the captain craned his neck, choked and bowed, then cautiously glanced about the room to see if he was observed before answering: "They got in trouble there." "How do you know?" "Morris wrote that Belcher was shot and in the hands of the miners, who might lynch him," and Capt. Fairweather placed his hands about his neck, as if the very thought gave him pain. "Has he given away anything?" asked Lackland, with some little uneasiness. "No. He will die before he does _ that." "Very well. Falrweather, have you heard of the fate of this young fellow who is causing so much trouble?" "No." "The girl says he Uvea." "«ah!" "Well, the impression is so Strang that she has determined toaet out tor Alaska to tad him, and sails in the 'President' for Seattle." "It will be a fool's journey, I know full well; he can't be alive." *4Kell, I have made up my mind to go to Alaska myself.** (To b* continued.) personally interviewed at their homes say Doan's Kidney Pilb cured them.

Samuel Stanslury, and daughter Margaret of Danville III., and sister, Mrs. Oscar Leseure, wife of Dr. Lesenre, of Detroit, were in our village Thursday of last week. Mr.Stansbury and sister were looking over old play grounds as it was here that they were born and in their childhood days hunted winter green berries and cranberries, chased the butterfly and rob* bed bumble bwes nests in the summer and snared the cotton-tail in the winter. Sometime along about 1835 or 1836 James W. Stansbury, father of Samuel, and Wm. Kirkland came from New York and settled here where the village of Pinckney now stands, when it was more common to see deer, wolves and Indians than white people, and the track of the bear was as common as that of the horse. Jas. Stansbury was among the first settlers here and in 1837 was elected treasurer of Putnam township and in 1845 Justice of the Peace. Both families w e n well educated and hterarj people, and knew very little about clearing up a wild country or farming. Mrs. Kirkland even wrote a book entitled "A New Home —Who'll follow," which was inspired by what she saw and passed through in the wilds of the territory of Michigan. Mrs. Kirkland was an aunt of Samuel Stansbury and &frs. Leseure. Mr. Kirkland was the first to plat the village of Pinckney which plat was recorded in 1837. He also built the mill and the first f>ame house in the village which still standi in the rear of the Sigler and Barton block. James Stansbury built one of the first stores in the village. Mr. Kirkland 9 people moved away pfirst and the Stansbury's occupied the frame house and the visitors Thursday went through the old dilapidated rooms with a good deal of interest, and memories ot incidents of childhood came thick and fast. One incident in Mr. Stanbary's life he said was still fresh in his memory. He was driving the cattle up the lane when something happened which he did not like and he uttered his first "damn it," which he said sounded like a clap ot thunder and scared him terribly— he thought everybody must have herrd it. Of course the visitors found everything changed but found a few old people who remembered them and who could give them the information they needed. Mr. and Mrs. S. Sykes, Mrs.O. VV. Haze and Mrs, Brower are about all who remain of the ones who remember the village as it was when the Stansbury's moved away 52 years ago. The visitors seemed to enjoy their visit and took the evening train (or Detroit, probably never to visit the scenes of their early, life again. ed bis parents here the past week Mrs. Casper Sykes and Mrs. C L. Sigler a n d children are visiting in Detroit. > John Docking and wife entertained a daughter from near Eaton Rapids the past week. Miss Bessie Cordley returned to the M. A. C. at Lansing this week to resume her studies. Edna, Fanny and Claude Rollison, of Brighton, were guests at H. H. Swarthouts over Sun ay. Peter Larsen of Howell, is visiting his sister Mrs. James Smith, also doing some reparing on her house. F. A. Daniels and family, of Gregory, will spend the winter in New Orleans. He has sold his resdence to C. N. Bullis. Frank Moran has been building a fancy stone wall around Mrs. Orla Jackson's cemetery lot, the past week, which improves the looks, not only of the lot but the entire cemetery. DO YOU PUr FUNCH9 WILL BUCK 7HE OIL TRUST.

The new court house at Ithaca was dedicated on Wednesday and proved a grand success, surpassing in numbers the expectation of the arrangement 'Committee. Judge Hooker, of the Supreme Court, spoke at considerable length upou judicial matters, dwelling upon the fact that the poorer class ofttimes could not secure their just rights in litigation from the fact of not being able to conduct their case .-through a higher court. Clerk of the ^Supreme Court Chiis. C. Hopkins was present, also Congressman H. B. Darragli. Judge Daboll. Gen. Loomis and Col. Braekett and others. Uniformed bodies from all parts of the state were present and numerous bands of music. Detroit Canton took firfct prizo in the -competitive- drill: Flint Canton, second, and Lansing K. P third. A magnificent street pageant was witnessed by thousands. The building cost $75,- - 000 and its interior finish is equal to the best in the state. The Calumet W i l d Man. The Finnish fishermen who live on 'the shore of Lake Superior, west or Calumet, are In a highly nervous state. A wild man has been seen several times within the past month in the woods in that neighborhood. Oscar Sorensen, who brought the report to the city, states that himself aud a .party of fishermen have twice seen thp wild man. Once he was sitting on a log not far away. He hart a loiig beard and hair to his belt. His clothing was torn and shabby and he Avon? rubber shoe* of antique pattern. Another time when seen by a party of fishermen he was rating rotten meat, evidently part of the carcass of a long-decayed wolf. One of the tishenr. en examined the moat and is absolutely sure that It was rotten. As the wild man has twice attacked fishermen when they were alone, they are greatly alarmed, and leave <heir families with reluctance when Attending to their fishing. They have resolved upon desperate efforts to capture the Avild man, or free the region of his presence. "Little Peaeh." (Growers of peaches on the east shorr of Lake Michigan are Incoming much alarmed over the spread of "littl? peach/' a new disease which seems to be contagious and arrests the development of the fruit at a stage where it is unmarketable. Many orchards are seriously affected and groAvers are cutting down the "sick" trees to save their neighbors. *'Llttle peach", is comparatively a new disease, though it has been studied In scattering localities as far back as 199«. when Prof. Wair, of the department of agriculture, begnn to waten it. Until last season It had not made any headway, but this yenr the orchards in many parts of Allegan <onnty are badly diseased. Near South Haven and south to Rt Joe and Benton. Harbor, the district which probably produces the beat peaches in the world and the largest •crop per acre, has scarcely felt the coming Beourge.

The second Aveek of the illness of Judge Dura ml closed with a reiteration of the encouraging statement on the part of the attendlv; physician that his patient is still on the gain. The remarkable improvement which the patient made during the closing days oi last week has not been maintained in the same ratio during the past two or three days, but though less pronounced than It has been, the IiH/ provement is steady and every day brings the judge nearer to the point from which his ultimate recoA-ery may be looked forward to Avith some degree of assurance. His appetite is comparatively good and he daily grows just a little bit stronger, while all his symptoms continue favorable. Startled t h e People. A. M. Harrington, of Freeport, Michone of the 15 deputy factory inspectors, struck Benton Harbor Friday and upset some favorite traditions and customs of that city. One of Benton Harbor's pet custom^'is to put up large buildings and then forget to put tire escapes on them. To the great concern of property owners Inspector Harrington ordered lire escapes put on several buildings, including hotels and store buildings, at oiTfe- He also ordered new low water boilers, and is closely investigating the employment of child labor in the factories in that city. Benton Harbor never knew there was such a being as a factory inspector, and the sensation he has created is something terrific. Ke Made N s m e r o n i W i l l s . The heirs of Jonas Mai'sh.

To Settle tae Strike. The Philadelphia North American says that J. Pierpont Morgan has absented to a pjan proposed by Gov. Stone, of Pennsylvania, for ending the coal miners' strike. The plan, according to the North American, was submitted to Mr. Morgan yesterday by P. A. B. Widner, of this city. The plan, in brief,"is for the mine workers to return to work without a signed agreement; that the operators, by concessions, adjust the differences existing between the men and the companies: that after waiting a reasonable time the operators fail to do this, an arbitrator be appointed, and that if the men deem the decision of the arbitrator as unjust, then the men can again go on strike.

Co3 She had often noticed him in the ring, a* with smiling Hpt fce waited Sor the fnrloes attacks of the maddened bulL At-first his courage In the lace of danger, his proud defiance, his dark, handsome face and graceful carriage won her admiration, and later this admiration, aided by a .romantic disposition, ripened into love. As to .him, though he admired aer magical beauty and^her'daintiness: of form, he was not blinded to the distance which separated him, Jose Narvezzo, the matador, and she Fontella Adroverso, the governor's daughter. Still, when be knew that her dark eyes rested upon him; his form straightened, his lips curled in that disdainful smile of bravery which made Urn the favorite of the ring, and his sword would bury Itself with unerring aim into the bull's flesh. %Vtien a woman of Fontella's type loves it is with a passion which nothing can quench and no obstacle can stop. How she managed to meet him for the first time, how she drew him on to her until his admiration of tho first days became the conquering passion of his life, will never be known; sufficient to say that before many weeks Jose had forgotten the distance which separated their two destinies and he has asked Fontella to become his wife. She remained silent for some time after he had spoken that avowal of love for which she had' waited, and with her dark eyes fixed upon him In a 8earc'aing gaze she seemed to try to penetrate the very depths of his soul. After awhile she said: "Are you sure It is me you love, not my wealth, not my social position, not the fact that I am Fontella, the governor's daughter?" A flash of anger glittered for an In* etant in the matador's eyes, but this was soon softened by an expression -of pain as be sadly replied: "You have the right to express that doubt, Fontella, for what am I when compared with you? What have I besides my courage to offer you? I was mad, pardon my folly,- for a passion stronger than my reason forced me to speak. Nothing I could say could prove the sincerity of my sentiments, and rather than to have them doubted Inrefer to leave you." He moved a step away aa though to leave her, but she extended her band and with a softening, in her haughty Telce, said: "Jose, I believe you." Be returned to her, his eyes warning witii passion; he seized her hands and to a pressure which was almost cruel be cried: "You believe my sentiments, but do <A tthlB province is more so," she remarked, "and my father will never eonsent to our union. Still I have a plan; I can force my father's consent When will you have the next fight?" "Next Wednesday. I am to fight Deyileto, the terrible black bull from ^fexi&o. He has killed seven matadors during the season." @he shivered; that record frightened her, but, overcoming this momentary emotion, she said: "You shall conquer. Love will give you strength and as reward I promise "Are yon sure i. ts me that yon lore. and not my wealth and social poMi©**"' you return them? Do you lore me as I do y o n n "1 do.* - •Then you shall be mtme, Fontella; the social harriers irbiea separate u r can surely be surmounted.

"But your plan—what is it? How can you win your father's consent? Tell me whEt you intend to do?" "You shall know Wednesday. Until then live in hopes, and above all, conquer your foe." And she was gone. Tae Plaza de Tores was crowded, for to-day the attraction was doubled; besides their favorite matador, Jose Narvezzo, they were to have the famous bull Devileto, who had already killed seven men and many horses. The sport promised to be bloody, yet women and young girls were there in holiday attire, casting from behind their fans coquettish glances to the men, laughing, smiling, happy as though they were here at an ordinary entertainment, not a spectacle in which blood woufd flow and perhaps where human life would be destroyed. They would In an instant be as ready to cheer the victorious bull as the matador, w'ao would remain their favorite as long as he remained unconquered. The blaring of trumpets announced that the spectacle would soon begin, the picadors and banderilleroB in their resplendent costumes on; those proud horses which, before long, would lie daad on the sand of the arena, and the matador, more handsome, more calm than ever, made their appearance aad paraded around the arena. The show had begun. Jose looked eagerly toward the gov* eraofs seat He was there, but alone. Fontella was not with. him. A feeling of disappointment came to him. This was followed by a doubt which paled sis cheek. Had she duped him, had see played a comedy for the sake of having bim, the unconquered, at her feet? But this thought, instead of weakening his courage, caused him to straighten his tall form; he would show her that he was a man who could be victorious in spito of ail. Those who watched his face at that moment murmured: "Narvezzo win conquer; such a look of resolution never courts failure." When the bull entered it was easy to see that the stories told of his vicious temper had not been overestimated. He was a beautiful animal, jet black In color, with long, sharp horns and eyes that burned like coala, his heaving flanks, twitching tail and the manner in which he scattered the sand with nit paw showed that be was used to this display and that be was only too ready to do alt part It aid not last long: in a few IDstaftUhtetir burses-lev bleeding on-tbe cf the boms and broke itself in two. "He baa lost, the bull has won!" rose on every side.. But no, he had not lost! In one leap he had Jumped to one side, the bull charged on, burying his horns in the sand a little distance away. This gave Jose time to take a sword which one of the men handed him, and when once more-the baffled bull turned upon bim with renewed fury he was ready, sword In hand, a smile of defiance on his lips, a strange expression in the eyes. This time the sword did its work, for as the bull rushed upon him the second time he plunged it to the hilt into the quivering flesh. The animal gave one howl of rage and pain, then fell rolling to the ground. The man had conquered the beast; the spectacle of blood was at an end. The crowd, mad with enthusiasm, cheered the conqueror; women cried as they cast their rings or Jewels into the ring; men threw money. The matador was reaping bis golden harvest, Suddenly a deep hush followed the clamor. All eyes turned in one direction toward the door which admitted the performers into the ring. Jose, surprised by the silence, turned also, and could scarcely retain an exclamation as he saw- Fontella coming A Profitable Celery Patch* A Philadelphia society that hat been running a three-acre co-operative farm* says in a report: One of the moat interesting and profitable parts of this three-acre farm was a celery plot of one-sixteenth of an acre.

When she got up to him she paused and In tones which rang clear and loud In the silence said: "Jose Narvezzo, you have conquered to-day the fiercest bull in Spain. Others have cast their tributes of gold at your feet; I bring you mine. Here is my hand; take it if you want it. I am yours for life." The scandal was great. The governor was furious, but Fontella had won. After that scene at the bull fight it was impossible for him to refuse his consent, so some two months later Narvezzo, having left the ring, became Fontella's husband, once more proving the saying that when there is a will there Is a way. Down on the Prairies. How still the prairies lie at 6arly dawn! These rolling landscapes of unbroken sod, Ere yet the shadows of the night are gone— These billows stiffened by the voice of God— Seem now to hold dim ages as in pawn; To witness his prophetic ruling rod; That earth's wide turmoil here at last shall cease v And man's rebellious heart be awed to peace. The wind moves blow, aa if it. would not wake The million blades of grass that radiant wear Jnmounted jewels of the dew, nor shake The clustering blooms within the orchards fair, Xor fret the surface of the shallow lake. Nor vex the vast sweet silence of the air, That he who seeks the sinless morning's calm May feel the soothing of the prairie's balm. How soft the light falls on the gracious scene! Field after field, in green and gold array, Rises distinct; the anchored clouds are seen To glide, a stately fleet, upon their way; While fluting low within their coverts green The songbirds seem to dream of coming day; And all the sweep of clearing sky and land To love and faith man's spirit doth command. dred thousand plants to the acre, the rows being only nine inches apart and the plants sets In drills five inches from each other. The plants were grown in the ordinary way and were transplanted to the plot at the proper season tor such work, that is, from the middle of July to the middle of August The plot was given a shallow or surface cultivation every ten days, but was never handled or banked with earth as Is usually done in celery eulture. On this one-sixteenth of an acre five thousand fine large stalks were matured, and after being bleached,' marketed at an average of one and one-quarter cents per stalk. At this rate one acre of land will yield a gross product of one thousand dollars. I am not prepared to say that this can be done year after year, for we attempted the same thing last year and failed, but I am sure that no greater risk is incurred in growing a crop by this method than would be incurred under the ordinary way, and X am confident that it can be done with much less labor in proportion to results. When to Grind Feed For Stock. The following concise advice from a recent book on feeding by Prof. Henry of Wisconsin, a recognized authority on the subject, is commended: "Thi^ subject is a difficult one to discuss owing to the great variety of conditions existing as to both grain and animals. Directionc are here given whici may serve to guide the feeder in his practice. For horses which are out of the stable during the day and worked hard, all grain, with the possible exception of oats should be ground. For those at extremely bard work, all grain should be ground and mixed with chaffed hay. For idle horses oats or corn should not be ground, nor need the hay or straw be chaffed. A cow yielding a large flow of milk should be regarded as a hard working animal and her feed propared accordingly. Fattening steers and pigs may be crowded more rapidly with meal than with whole grain, though there is more danger attendant upon its use. Sheep worth feeding can always grind their own grain. In genera], idle animals and those having ample time for mastication, rumination and digestion do nc. need tLeir grain or roughage prepared as carefully as do those with only limited time for these essential operations. Experiments quite generally show increased gains from grinding grain, but in many cases they are not sufficient to pay the cost of grinding." CURING BEARS OP THEFT. Uce of Heavy Bull Whip Feunel to Be Effective. Gen. Corbln, who has just returned to Washington from a trip to Yellowstone Park, tells how some heart i t the park raided the Fountain House, "I investigated myself, and found that the bears had broken into the kitchen 01 the hotel and simply ruined all the stores, leaving the hotel and its guest* without food enough for a meat - It was sidesplitting to listen to the Chinese cook attempt to describe the visit of the bears. He became excited, spluttered, grinned and squeaked, andt went through all the supposed menenr vers of the beasts in his endeavor to> explain the damage that had been* done. It was really no laughing matter, for the proprietor of the hotel! and Col. Pitcher sent men to punish* the intruders." "Would they WU tbebears?" Gen. Corbln was asked. "Oh,. no; they would only whip them. They would take a big bull whip and laste the bears soundly. Experience has taught, so the park people say, that e> good sound thrashing from a buU-whip* will last a bear, either brown or grizzaly, for the remainder of the season." Possibilities of a California Acre. Samuel Cleeks lives on one acre in the Sacramento valley. Of this acre his buildings occupy nearly one-sixth of the. space, but in the balance is grown every variety of fruits, nuts, vegetables, etc., that will or can be made to grow in that climate. On this acre Mr. Cleeks has supported himself and wife for forty years, making a good living, and has put aside on an average $400 a year. He is one of the men in this part of the valley who always has money to loan. Women in Stlf-Defentc.

Prof. W. A. Henry: The subject of large or small pastures is frequently discussed. The majority of experienced American feeders favor a single large range rather than numerous small pastures. Grasses, both in variety and quality, are never quite the same ever the whole of a large pasture, and cattle soon detect the slight differences, and satisfy their desire for variety by ranging from one spot to another. In large pastures the habits of the animals become regular, and it is interesting to study their movements. The herd will be found in the morning on one side of the valley, feeding on the more abundant vegetation. Later, a3 the sun's heat increases they appear on the hillside, where there is a movement of air and where the grasses are shorter, but more nutritious.

The child w a s delighted with the plaything, and as they rode along she chatted with her new friend and pulled the balloon up and down. At length she playfully fastened the string to the lady's diamond brooch. The train was rounding a curve at the moment, and a strong gust of air came through the car. The balloon was carried out through the open window. The sudden jerk on the string loosened the brooch, and away it sailed. The jewel w a s so valuable that the young woman offered a reward of $500 for its recovery. Spurred by this incentive, cowboys scoured the plains for days in all directions, but without Success.

After a lew moments the babel of I have no doubt given mo up for dead mountains, and he and his escort were provided with dried meat and compressed bread and hardtack. The four Indians selected for Paul's party were stout young fellows, inured to hardship and danger. They were strong, brave and faithful. The instructions given them by the old missionary were carefully listened to and they promised to carry them out to the letter. There is always something enchanting in a great, deep forest, with its tall trees clothed in moss and solemn depths which seem to speak of divinity. At night in the forest adds to the gloom, the solemnity and awfulness of the scene. A camp fire in the great northern woods, with its rocks and cliffs, its moss-covered trees, has something grand in it. Cathered about a camp fire built at the base Of the mountain range were five persons—Paul Miller and his four Christian Indians. It bad been a long, hard day's travel, and the poor fellows were almost exhausted. It was only Paul's indomitable will driving aim on to more than super-human energies that kept hirp en his feet. He had abandoned all hope of finding the men who bad robbed bim, and now hG longed to get back to the Klondyke', take another fortune from the frozen earth, and return to Laura and his mother. The faces which ever eeemed to smile at him from the smoke and darkness gave him courage and hope. "It has been a long time since I wrcta to them," he thought. "They - "<BtyW to cross.

Paul determined to keep a close watch on the rascal and conduct bim across the mountains to the camp on the Klondyke, where punishment would be meted out to him according to frontier ideas of justice. Paul bound his arms behind his back and told him to sit in froni of the fire. The night passed guarding the prisoner by turns, and when the. day dawned he was still among them.

Kto-i&SkjktLL:^-!*-*^^ voices without ceased, and the crowd gathered near the house began to disperse. The thought then occurred to his mind that the prisoner, having been arrested for trespassing, might be released on his solemn promise never to return. With this new danger in his mind he started toward the door, when he was met by Father Duncan. "What have they done with the prisoner?" he asked anxiously. $ "He has been sent to the prison to be detained for a while until certain mysteries with which he is connected are cleared up," said the old man. "Father Duncan, do you think the fellow is secure? Do you think there is no danger of his escape?" "None whatever. My Indians are very watchful and careful. They will obey me to the letter." "Then let* us sit here and compare notes for a few moments." He seated himself by the old missionary and told him of his rescue by the mysterious old man of the mountains whom he had called the hermit. Then he told of the capture of the hermit, and concluded with: "This man was one of the three who seized the good old man and took him away from the cayern." f nVinterest of good Father Duncan increased, and he shook his head, saying: , "This \%-, certainly* J very, very .strange*' j * • „•» • - . "There is a mystery in it all which ( am unabja ip solve, I cannot* comnreaco*\ JSzho;. this strafigV'hermit; can be, unless he is the captain to whom you refer." ( . . . > "It looks.very•mwch a! K the unfortunate man w.s the beloved captain whose mysterious disappearance has occasioned so much distress." Paul remembered the story which the ex-tailor, Glum Ralston, had told him of'his captain, and also recalled to his recollection the mysterious walrus hide. His anxiety to escape from the island and return to the Klondyke, jWbere his friends were, was mora Than over-balanced by a desire to Jesrn something of the motive* of the trespasser. / "Mr. Duncan, will your friend* see that he does not escape?" "there is little danger of his doing so," Father Duncan answered^ "My friends are glad and Christian men. '<tmJ±mtt&l^&^£^ How sad to cause t'aera grief, and all through a mischievous yet truthful message written in a fit of delirium!" He was suddenly roused from bis painful reverie by the falling and rolling of a great stone down upen and across the camp fire, scattering the burning brands in every direction. The great, round bowlder passed within a few inches of where Paul sat and between two of the Indians, but fortunately did not touch any one. The stone was heavy enough to crush out life or break bones had it struck one. Paul leaped to his feet end the Indians started up with exclamations of fear. "From whence came that stone?" cried an Indian. Paul's first suspicion that some convulsion of the earth hart shaken the stone loose from the mountain side and sent it thundering down the cliff upon them, but there had been no perceptible quaking. While he was still trying to discover the cause, there came another object rolling down the steep descent mingled with dirt fine stones and snow. It semed a great dark ball, from which there issued a human cry. It rolled to Paul's feet and stopped. He seized one of the burning brands and held it so the flame threw the light upon the face of the stunned and half-insensible man, who sat stupidly gazmg about him. The sudden and unexpected advent of this stranger was enough to startle the campers and disturb their wits. The Indians, starting to their feet, stared at him in amazement. Paul was first to recover his speech. He cried: "Throw the wood on the fire!" They obeyed, and the light flashed up, throwing out a broad red glare on the scene which illumined the dirtbe- grimmed face of the man who had tumbled down the cliff. Paul, starting back, sala: "It is the escaped prisoner, the abductor— the robber—and perhaps murderer." He seised one of the Indian's muskets and raised It to brain the scoundrel, but two stout Metlakabtlas seised him and said: "Nay, brother, Thou shait not wiir The man who had so suddenly fallan into their midst was rapidly re* gaining bis faculties and by this prepare to ascend Vb» mountain. It had snowed considerable during the night, but toward morning it changed to a rain and later in the day a sleet. The ascent became every moment more and more difficult About every one hundred paces they came to mountain torrents, fed by the* glaciers, and augmented by recent rainfalls, which they had to wade, the cold water often coming above their knees. After struggling -up a steep ascent of twenty-five or thirty feet they were often forced from sheer exhaustion to rest for a moment, but when they stopped ever so short a time the piercing wind cut them to the marrow, chilled them to the bone and they were compelled to continue their course to keep from chilling to death. When evening came they were on the other side of the mountain in a valley wet, shivering and benumbed with cold. They had no tent nor shelter,- cave the lowering heavens from aftovei Some ' dry pine and scrub oak wood was collected and a fire kindled. They all gathered about it to dry their bedraggled garments c^d warm their shivering bodies. They had just made a supper on c'ried salmon, mcose meat and hardtack, when they were startled to see an old man with long white hair and beard standing on a slight'elevation cot far away, gazing at them. He wore a seal-skin cap, which shaded his face, but not too much for him to be recognized by all the camp. "The captain!" cried the Metlakahtlas. 'The hermit!" exclaimed Paul. The prisoner gave utterance to a curse and was bounding away when a blow from the hermit's 6taff sent him staggering to the earth. Paul Miller started quickly toward the hermit, Eaying: "Where are you from?" r, r^reSjej&enterV H**25thdajr i l l affidavit public* h DoanV foj«~ crutches* d suffered^ more JkeoV slating my Kidney Pil thirty yeart^ andt^ ne. to wali by toe frequently > pafsed frav' toWBciaUngly^ 1%V|6«#>*'every m## *io*?en the market t l P * heajs about ajjf some gave j ^ ; t e m i ^ r # ' rellet __ Z^,^''MwSf^S^laf^pnbtto . in the aUtemunt aeove referred to.

Colored Man Missed Usual Greeting ... t . from Admiral ^Evana, , When Admirals Evans and Schley were both assigned to duty on the Lighthouse Board, which- convenes IT rooms at the Treasury Department in Washington, the Philadelphia Post relates, the colored messenger at the door cne morning stopped Admiral Schley. "I wish," said tie darky, "you would speak a kind word to Com'dore Evans for me. He's done got it in for me." "You must be mistaken, George," Schley replied. "I happen to know that Commodore Evans, like the rest of us, thinks highly of your distinguished services." "Oh, I'se sure," persisted the colored man, "that Com'dore Bvana don't like me no more." "What makes you think eo?" d* manded Schley. "Well," explained, the messenger, "usually when Com'dore Evans arrives * in the mornln''fc£ says, 'Hell©,, George, you blaiikj^blank-blank fcol!

Mr. Holmes, the ticket agent at the New York Central Station, has sold a ticket from Pokeepsie to Yokohama and return. This is a very unusual sale. The purchaser was Mr. Paul McCormac of this city who proposes to go to China and Japan On a pleasure trip. The route is by the way of San Francisco and the Pacific.

This is precious fine compar.y you keep!" He clutched his stout staff as Paul approached and warned him not t6 come too cloee. "I will strike you as I did your companion if you come too near me," he added, in a voice made ferocious by iong years of suffering and disappointment. Paul halted and gazed at him in amazement. , The old man at last said: "I have been cheated, deceived, betrayed and lied to until I have about lost faith in all men. Can I trust you now?". "Do you know those men?" asked Paul, pointing to the Melakahtlas. "It you know them, you must know they can be trusted." "Yes, they are brothers, but they have been deceived as often as I." One of the Indians approached the hermit and addressed him in his native tongue. The old man answered in the same language and grasped his hand. Though Paul could not understand a word of what was said, ke knew from their manner and gestures that it had some relation to the man on the ground. After a long conversation with the Metlakahtla the hermit approached the fire. His face was very grave, and his brow lowered when he gazed upon the prisoner. The mien of the prisoner had t been defiant until he met the glance of the heTmit; then his countenance fell, and hla eyes were upon the ground. "Ned Padgett," said the hermit, "you will some day receive the reward you so much merit; you will die a dog's death yet" The ruffian gave a snoerlng chuckle, but made no answer.

The proprietor *>f a creamery in Kansas has a fish pond near his creamery and he has noticed that the fish seem to be very fond of curd. He, there* fore, inquires whether H would be more profitable to feed this curd to fish, which ore worth 10 cents per pounds or to feed rt to calves and pigs. We are not aware of any specific ex* perlments having been made to determine this question, but as an original proposition, we should be Inclined to the opinion that the curd could not be put to any more profitable use than feeding it to the fish.' Of course, there should be some care exercised and a very close watch kept to ascertain whether this could be used as a sole diet, or whether the health of the fish demanded something in addition. There is n. reason to suppose that -the curd would give any unpleasant results in the matter of flavor or texture. We can readily understand, how* ever, that it should never be fed in greater amounts than the fish would consume readily, as otherwise the surplus or refuse might decay and render the water unhealthy.—Koaras Dairy* man. A Cellar. From Farmers' Review: Last fall we had a cellar made that pleases us greatly. Its new feature is in the benches of earth left on either side and in one end; these benches are 2½ feet high from the cellar floor, this floor being a walk or room surrounded by these earth benches. The entire inside was cemented, of course, and as the earth benches kept from moving a lot of dirt and because if there had been no earth benches left we would have placed wooden ones inside we like It greatly. Much nicer to place jars, boxes or cans on these benches than to place them on the floor; saves stooping that all mothers will appreciate. Over one bench we made wood shelves to hold the cans of fruit; one can put quantities of cellar stuff in a small cellar if arranged in this way; one that once has a convenient cellar will never do without one again unless compelled to. Ours ia cementsd direbtly on the earth as is also our cistern.—Emma Clearwaters. Weila as Creamery Catch Basins. Every once in a while a creamery company sinks a tubular well to carry off the waste water, but in no case so far as we have heard has such a well given satisfaction, and in most cases the waste water contaminated' the water in the well used for tire cream* ery, and in two cases caused serious trouble, says the Dairy Record. One creamery, after running the waste water In such a well some distance from the .creamery was compelled to draw water from a neighbor for two months, and the pump in the creamery was kept going day and night during that time before the water could be used again. Their experiment should suffice for others, but still others try the same scheme, usually to •Jieir Borrow.

THE day waa when men of promi nence hesitated to give ilieir testimonials to proprietary medicines for publication. This remains true to-day of most propletary medicines. But Peruna hae become so justly famous, its merits are known to so many people of high and low stations, that no one hesitates to aee hia name in print recommending Peruna. The highest men in our nation have given Peruna, a strong endorsement. Men representing all classes and stations are equally represented. A dignified representative of the Presbyterian church is the person of Rev. E. O. Smith does not hesitate to state publicly that Be has used Peruna in his family and found it cured when other remedies failed. In this statement the Rev. Smith ia supported by an elder in hia church. ' Rev. E. G. Smith, pastor of the Presbyterian church of 6reensboro,6a.,writes: MHavingused Peruna in my family for some time it gives me pleasure to testify to its true worth. "My little boy seven years of age had been suffering for some, time with catarrh of the lower bowels. Other remedies had failed, but after taking two bottleaof Peruna the trouble almost entirely disappeared. For this special malady I consider it well nigh a specific. "AM m took for wemk mad vat people H hMsfeworaoegturiM."»— Jfcv. & a. Smith, Mr. M. J.

Peruna was recommended to me by several friends, and after using a few bottles I am pleased to say that the long looked for relief was found and I Mm mam enjoy lag better health thmm I hmve tot years, and can heartily recommend Peruna to all similarly afflicted* It la certainly a grand medicine."—M.

Both tickets are now in the field and the fight will begin. Plncknty In It. Of course a county ticket would not be entirely right unless Pinckney was represented. The democrats recognized this last week when they nominated Malaohy Roche tor register of deeds. Mr. Roche served bis county four years as sheriff, and needs but little introduction at our hands as he is well and favorably known throughout the county. His record as sheriff will certainly win him many votes, and.when he i§4 elected and installed in the office yon may rest assured that any business yon may have with the register of deeds will be well looked after.

Those who know Mr. Shields can sanction every word ol tbe article:— "Two years a^o the party showed its confidence in Mr. Shields in electing him to this important office by a good majority. He has shown bid fitness without question. He has also shown bis (rood judgment by refusing to make the county costs upon petty and trivial matter". Mr. Shields has fought his cases as bard as he could, but after the verdict of guilt was secured believed he had done his whole duty, as he never insisted upon malicious or unreasonable punishments, but has tried to use pood judgment in all bis official transactions.

A trap or two-, laden with pretty, fresh-locking girls in white, and lazy, lolling fellows In,blue serge, rattled by, and a few horsemen and • equestriennes ambled pact. A girl stepped out from the office and walked slowly down the veranda, i glancing from right to left in search of a vacant chair. She appeared to be about twenty years*of age, was about medium height and very fair. Her face was decidedly pretty, with almost "G'bsonian" features. Her hair was almost golden—Titian, some would call It. She walked gracefully, and attracted considerable attention as she passed along the piazza. An unoccupied rocker finally caught the girl's eye, and she settled down into It with a little sigh of contentment. Seated directly at the right of the girl was a women of striking aj> . pearance. The "chappies" referred to her as "stunning;" the middle-aged men called her an "cut and cut beauty," while the old gray-whiskered fellows rolled their e y e s ecstatically and aaid nothing. T h e objeet of this astonishing amount of admiration was a brunette fa taw true sense of the word, and divinely, beautiful She was of about medium, height and a trifle above the medium weight, hut the slight superfluity of avoirdupois only accentuated her charms. Her finely shaped head was set upon a throat so symmetrical, ao proud and White, that she appeared to be taller than she really waa. Her complexion was of the Southern type, olive, with a delicate tinge of rosy hue. iter e y e s were the most attractive of her nutny charms. They were large, luminous, dark as a starless night, and a fringe of long jet lashes almost hid them from s i g h t Aa the blonde girl seated herself, her dark-haired neighbor eyed her curiously, penetratingly. The glance , parents were ardent gclfiste, and were at that moment, deeply engrossed In the popular game. They made a striking couple, these two women of such different typea of beauty, and they were freely com* naented upon by tha paseera-by. The gjrl chatted away volubly, and waa surprised to find herself making a confident of her new friend. The large black faeyes seemed so friendly and sympathizing that the girl opened her heart in a w a y that all girls do. She had been away from home ao long, tog. toward* 4b* driveway, where a horae AadisMi .rider c a m e Jfewfcr «P the p*tJu , T h e rfcier waa a mam of about forty.

The d e r k e y e d woman followed the gaxe o / her oompanion, and when she ^ eanght sight of tfaf handsome riderl1 her face lighted up with an amused smile, and she waved her hand familiarly. T h e rider touched hia whip to hia b a t aad smiled. "There/' faltered the girl; "that la he." "Who?" asked her new friend. "Why, he whom I met on the boat— the man I love," returned the girl Impetuously. "Ah, my dear," aaid tha brunette, smiling compassionately, "you m u s n t mind him, you knew." ' T h e n you know him?" "Slightly; he's my husband." W e r t i a the midst of an animated tete-a-tete* was returned, and both smiled In a friendly manner. Boon they were ia the midat of a a animated tete-a-tete, tha girl doing moat of tbo talking, while her companion proved to be a good Uetener.

Her "He's my husband." and had been so long apart from her chums and intimates, that she felt happy in the possession of a new friend who seemed so interested in her girlish adventures and confidences. At first she spoke only of her schooldays at Smith, but was scon telling of her love-affairs, an ample amount always being the property,of every winsome miss who has passed her twentieth birthday. "But 1 am really and truly in leve, now," she went on, coloring prettily. "1 met him on the 'Maaiteu' on cur way here from Chicago. He is very handsome and is quite a good deal older than I. 1 first saw him in the dining saloon; he sat opposite me, and was so pclite and courteous in handing such things that were out of my reach. He looked at m e rather persistently, I should think.. Once, when he passed me the salad, our handa touched, and I fancied that he tried to squeeze mine. "That evening our folks played cards in the cabin, and I went out on the deck to enjoy the beautiful n i g h t It is simply glorious on Lake Michigan after dark! I drew up my chair at the stern of the boat, behind a big wheel which ia never used, and began to doze and dream of—well, I thought of him. "Suddenly I felt a .thrill shoot through me, and I actually t e l i e v e my heart stood still. I knew he w a s near. U was so dark I could scarcely see my hand in front of my face, yet I waa positive he w a s approaching. Presently 1 heard hia voice, and he aaid: " 'Pardon me, little friend. If 1 teem rude; but I a a lonely, and you > do not appear to be very well enter* tained, either. May I ait down and chat with you. Misery loves company, you • know.' "Oh, I know I should have sent him away, but I cidn't, and w e talked for over an hour. He was ao Interesting, and seemed to be very cultured and a great traveler. H e spoke of Paris and Calcutta in the same breath, and entertatnec me greatly with b i t reminiscences. How I did h a t e to go ia! But t knew that I had already broken too many rules of propriety, ao I bade him good-night and w e s t to my stateroom. •TOM he kisa m e t - T h e girl averted her f h t e aad her lips trembled aa she answered frankly, "Yea, aad I am not sorry, either." , "Well," aha continued. **I old aot an* msch ot aim neat day, aa I NO POUND WEIGHTS IN TROY. Measure Extsta Only in the -School Booka and Not With Jewelers. "Did it ever occur to you," said a college professor to a- Chicago goldsmith, "that you have no such thing as a pound weight?" It had, but the professor i s willing to bet that not one graduate of a high school out of twenty has an idea that there is not a metal weight of twelve ounces to represent the Troy pound. But there is no such thing. Twelve Troy ounces make a pound, but there is no such material unit of measurem e n t There are the grain, the scruple, the drachm, and the ounee weights, but nothing more. The man who has ten pounds of gold in reality has only 120 ounces, and for him to go into the gold market and speak of gold by the pound would be for him to be laughed at. Incidentally these units of measurement in the Troy scale look a good deal more like Greek or Chinese coins than they look like weights. For the average high school graduate to pick up a set of these weights would be to bewilder him. It is the contemplation of such absurdities of the English tables of weights and measures that bring the student to the metric system as the sarie solution of it all. a a d roaehisff in a corner shouted that be would brain anyone that came near h i a C ' •••'•-•• B y tula time the/ jail woe in a n uproar.

Nearest to the enemy's array will be the battleships, drawn up in one line in close order as of old; they will, as a rule, follow each other, just in the same way as did the ships of a century ago, but at a high speed in lieu of a low one. Unlike the old timers, the modern battleships will not come to close quarters. They will use their guns, not at musnet-shot range, or, say 200 yards, but at ranges approacainc 3,000 to 4,000 yardB. They will not come within 2,000 yards of their opponent, lest they be torpedoed. Farther from the enemy than the battle line will be* the cruisers, trusting mainly to guns, as do their heavy consorts, but keeping at a greater range, in order to get the protection which distance will always give. If a.favorable chance offers, they might support the torpedo craft in a dash at the enemy's battle line. Out of range altogether will be the torpedo craft, ready to dash in if a favorable opportunity offers, but taking no risks early in the action lest their usefulness should be lost when their services are required.—Blackwood's Magaglne. The London Sewer Hunter. The London sewer hunter befon commencing operations provides himself with a hullseye lantern, a canvas apron and a pole some seven or eight feet in length, having aa iron attachment at one end somewhat in the shape of a hoe. For greater convenience the lantern is invariably fixed to the right shoulder, ao that when walking the light is thrown ahead, and when stooping its rays shine directly to their feet. Thus accoutered they walk slowly along through the mud, feeling with their naked feet for any thing unusual, at the same time raking the accumulation from the walls and picking from the crevices any article they. see. Nothing ia allowed to escape them, ao matter what its value provided It Is not valueless.

"What do yon think of that Mr. A.?" he aaked. The curate did not especially Wee It, and moreover he was not sure whether It could be safely eaten. Nevertheless, this was his superior in office, a man who must not be offended. "1 think, my lord," said he, obsequiously, "if it bad a little pepper and salt it would be delicious."

It Is true that I have a brother in holy orders, but be is not in your graced diocese."

In our age, with its high pressure, its hot and bitter competition and the unrelenting struggle for survival, its moral and physical ravages are steadily increasing. Cities, in which an ever larger proportion of our people dwell, are biological hothouses and, for some, furnaces, forcing development prematurely and encouraging late hours and excitement and consuming nerve and brain."...';__. is perfect and whose stomach performs its every function is never sick.

D e l i c a c y o f S m e l l . Very careful experiments have been made to test the delicacy of the sense of smell in human beings. A series of solutions of five different substances was prepared, each series being so arranged that every solution was of half the strength of the preceding . one. These series were extended by successive dilutions till it was impossible to detect the odors. The order of the bottles containing these solutions was completely disarranged, and the test consisted in the attempt to classify them by the sense of smell alone. : An equal number of male and female observers were selected from the best apothecaries' shops, and each was required to arrange the bottles. The males were able to detect the smell of the nitrate of amyl in the solution of 1 part to 783,000 of water, and the females were able to detect it in the solution of 1 part to 311,000 of water, The oil of wintergreen was detected in about the same proportion and to the same extent of dilution. There was, therefore, a very great preponderance in favor of the males as to the sensitiveness and discrimination of the sense of smell. This is certainly an astounding fact—Gentleman's Magazine.

"Glum—Glum—no." "Glum Ralston." The old man again shook hit head, declaring he had never Known such a person. Paul was disappointed. From what Glum Ralston had told him he was confident that this mysterious hermit of tht. woods was the long* lost captain who had followed the Indians to the place where they said gold in great quantities was found. But when the mysterious hermit disclaimed any knowledge* of him at all he was quite as far away from the solution of the problem as he sad been before. Next morning the party resumed their march guided by the sun, which shone a portion of the day. Paul and the hermit were constantly together, and hourly grew more and more friendly, until, as the noble nature of the hermit unfolded itself, Paul came to love^fiimi He; was known to the hermit by'his sobriquet of Crack-las a, for he had been called by no other name since his arrival in Alaska. Paul was hourly entwining himself about the rugged heart of the old man. One night when they f.&d halted and the Indians were building a fire for the night the hermit said: "Crack-lash, you impress me strangely. I don't know why, but I have grown to love you as if you were my nearest relative. When my own dear boy grows up to manhood I could only wish that he would make as noble a man." Paul, deeply impressed with the old man's sad .story, expressed F hope that he would soon be able to leave Alaska and reach his home, and that his wife and child might yet be alive to welcome him. Their stock of provisions were ;coining short. One day the Indians came on the trail of a moose and were anxious to start on its trail. Paul gave them permission to go, while he and the hermit, kindled the fire and prepared to make themselves; comfortable for the nigat. The prisoner as usual eat in sullen silence, with his back against a tree and his eyes fixed on the fire. Paul and the hermit sat ergaReu in earnest conversation. The lormer. was talking in a low tone, telling ho** he had been robbed.by the prisoner and three others, and followed them into tii forest. He was in the midst of his narrative when two objects suddenly appeared before tliem, eacii with a Winchester Jifle an.1 said: "Surrender or you Are dead men."

'f did." "What do you mean?" "It it tost" Morris stared at him for a moment with wide cpen eyes and gasped: "I don* understand you, Cap; you are talkln' in riddles." "I care very little whether you understand m3 or not," the old man defiantly answered. "The secret Is lost. It was written In cipher on a walrus hide and the walrus hide is lost/' It .was some time before the idea could get through the thlcx skulls of the ex-sailors, but when they came to fully comprehend the loss they roared like madmen. Ned seised hts knotted stick and swore he would brain them both, but his more cool companion Interfered, saying: "It may all be a trick. After all It may be only a trick to throw us off the trail. If we decide for the old cuss to pass in his checks, let it be done deliberately and give him time to reflect." So Padgett decided to let them live and trust to some chance to reveal the hiding place of the money. Paul had heard the above conversation between their captors and waiting for an opportunity to speak with the hermit when he would not be overheard by them, whispered: "Is the walrus hide you referred to the one left in the cavern where you took me?" "Y^s." "I took it." "You?" There was an expression on the old man's face almost fierce as he asked tbe question. "Yes, I took it." "What did you do with it?" "Gave It to the miner who was with me before I fell frcm the precipice and whom I found after leaving the caverr.. He said he had seen It before." "Where?" "The Indians who had enticed his captain away in search of gold had some such hide, only there had been painting added to it since." The hermit turned, and fixing his great, earnest eyes on him in astonishment, asked: "His captain—had he been a sailor?" "Yes, sir." "In what seas?" "Almost all over the world, but his last voyage was in a sealing schooner to St. Paul Island, Alaska, and this coast." "What was this sailor's name?" "He is called old Glum." "No ether name?" "1 believe Glum Ralston is his name, but after all his real name, I dent think, is known. In this country nearly everybody goes by some nickname, and I fancy that Glum Ralston was only a nickname." "Might have been Jack Ralston." "Well, since you mention it, I b3- lieve I once heard him say his real name was Jack Ralston; however, I will not be sure." The hermit was very calm. Paul waited a long time for him to answer, but tha old man was silent as the grave. Then two of their captors came rear where they were sitting, and they dared not talk anymore. Their journey was very painful and difficult. Grown desperate, Paul had determined to escape from their captors even if he had to kill them. One day they reached a great, Clcomy cavern which extended to an unfathomable depth in the earth. Their captors had pine knots on the wall about the cavern, and lighting two of these went back to where there were piles of dead grass and a table of stone on which lay a pack <.f greasy cards. .Hero they took up their abode. Several days passed, and then Morris and Padgett left the cavern in char** of Tom Ambrose, who > tied the prtwmer* every nlgfiT, established a dead lino in *he cavern In daytime, and swore he would shoot the first one who aticw<fit«tO to cross it.

The man/whom he had assaulted in ^company with Padgett and Morris approached him. Morris handed Paul a letter in the well-known handwriting of Laura; Kean. It was dated at Juneau and addressed to Paul's pother In Fresno. The letter was brief, saying she had . just arrived, and would rest a dag| or < two before proceediar farther. 4 , . "Isn't that evidence?" asked-MoWs.^ "Yes; but she did nor come with him." ",Oh no;- hofeame on another ship." Then he jied1 when ho* said they -came together." Morris laughed a cold, sardonic laugh, and id a voice that seemed to have all the evilef-a-demon In It, answered: "Though they came on different ships from America, there is but one train going to the Klondyke and both will be in that train. The chances are she knows no one but him, and you know Lack land's feelings towards the girl. When he starts to win he wlnB; he's got millions to work With, and if it's necessary to buy the entire pack train off he can do it." Paul Miller groaned aloud, but made no answer. He realized how great her danger and how uterly hopeless he was to aid her. "Now you san save her," said Morris. -\ *! Save., ^er ? J, B£y Heaven, how £ What other Infernal scheme have you on hand?" "You were overheard talking with the old mad about a walrus hide. From what you said it was understood you knew something about it. If you will give Us Information that will lead to finding it, you shall be given your liberty and be taken to this young lady, Laura Kean." "I cannot," groaned Paul. "Why." "I don't know where It Is." "What did you do with it?" aske^d Morris, his face expressing the deepest concern. "I gave it to another. Where he is or what he has done with i- I do not know." A look of disappointment swept over the faces of the captors at this announcement. They retired to near the entrance of the cavern and there held a consultation. "It's all a pack of lies," cried Padgett. "We've been twenty years In these woods waitin* t* grab that pile, an* no nearer to it now than before. Knock out their brains* 1& go away is what I say." Tom Ambrose,, though equally as much a villain as MB companion, urged moderation. During all the years the unprincipled rascals had struggled to get possession of their captive's secret, Tom had acted aa a brake to fiery Ned's temper. "We have-A hold^ onlthe old man," one of the plotters at last declared. "He can be made to tell where the gold is cached." "But he don-'t'know." "He does know. He must know." "Well, what goodll that do? Hain't we been the last eighteen or twenty years try in' to open the hatches o' the old capen, who's as close-mouthed as a clam? We've threatened t' hang him—done everything any one kin, but it's all no use." "We got a stronger pull now than ever." "What it it?" "Come here." . * • . * • Hit companions gathered, about him and he tpread his arms around their shoulders and 'began to reveal the plan which emanated from his won* derful brain—a plan that was diabolical, but promised success.

In Bystemto catarrh the disease lias pervaded the whole system and there fa u constant loss of vital fluids from the mucous membranes. A great many people are doctoring for nervous' prostration who would be immediately cwed'by a Course of Penina. Peruna makes clean, healthy mucous membranes. By thiapreservation of the fluids the weakening drain of their discharge is prevented. The medical profession is just beginning to awaken to the fact that chronic catarrh,especially systemic catarrh, will soon produce a condition so nearly resembling nervous prostration that it is very difficult to tell one from the other. Peruna cures these cases without fail.

It's simply a case of sour grapes with you. "Do you mean to say that you over worked?" retorted the other. "I do," eaid the son of the rich man. "And when did you ever work?" interrupted the recently poor youth. "When I was about seven months old," was the answer. "You see, I swallowed a yeast cake."

The heaviest raU storm ever known in the history of Kalamazoo or southwestern Michigan prevailed Saturday from V> o'clock noon until evening. Hyring that time nearly three inches of" water fell in the storm, at times taking on the nature of n cloudburst, making rivers of the streets and lakes of the celery fields. Several times the principal streets stood under nearly half a foot of water. Traffic was suspended, the electric power was shut off. leaving tho city in darkness, and cars on tho interurban line to Rattle Creek were held up nearly four hours. Reiwrts coming in from the adjacent county districts tell of flooded highways and tields. washouts, etc. During the evening Kalamazoo river began to rise. The low lands are under many feet of water, and families living in this district are watching the rapidly rising waters with much apprehension and preparing to move any moment. Long time residents declare that it was the hardest rainstorm that e w r visited this section. ' Ranson'K Body Found. A postmortem was performed on the body of Charles B- Rabson, "who was found in the river.;, neatly three miles from Saginaw where l i e "" plunged into the river, and Ills stomach watt found to be tn a uormai condition.

How Thompson's Watch Cost : Him a Wife. BY WILLIAM BL0S3. (Copyright, IMS, by Dally Story Pub. Co.) "Gentlemen or the leisure clan don't carry watches, nowadays," aatd our host, Thompson, dogmatically, pausing to light a second cigarette. "James, since Captain Barry wishes to be exact, you may look at the library clock and tell him what time it is." "It is striking eight o'clock, sir," replied James, respectfully, as he quietly filled the Captain's glass. There was a snug party of six lounging over their wine and tobacco after dining regally at Thompson's bachelor board. Barry had to catch a train for s t Patfl at $ p. m. He wanted to stay just as long as possible before summoning a cab to take him to the depot, and upon consulting his watch for the hour had been seized by forebodings as to the accuracy of the bands. His inquiry as to the "right" time had-led to the host's remark. Barry flushed a little as it fell. The assertion seemed to his mind supercilious and barbarously un-American. Barry himself was a man of the people, and was proud of it So, too, was Thompson, or bad been, once. "What do you mean by 'gentlemen of the leisure class,' you gray-haired fraud," he demanded, in half anger. "Do you mean to say I am no gentleman because I carry a watch and like to know what time it is when I have a train to make?" "Certainly not," replied Thompson, with placidity. "Of course not. You ire a gentleman because you are a man of education, intelligence, good* /reeding and some ancestry' " "Huh!" grunted the mollified ;arry, f,What then?" "But you are not," continued the ost, "a gentleman of the leisure class. ecause you busy yourself with your ommercial affairs and even at your -ge continue " "At my age! I'm full five years younger than you are." Thompson waved the interruption aside as irrelevant "I was going to say that if you quit business and be* came a loafei "As you have.'

"'Tom,' said he, 'You know how much we Thompsons think of this watch. It belonged to your great grandfather. He bought it in Liverpool before the revolution, and it has been in the family—and running, too —most of the time, ever since. Take It my boy, and remember to live up to its principles.' "I was much affected, naturally, for I knew Uncle Jackson regarded mat watch as his chiefest treasure. I made all sorts of protestations of good behavior and careful solicitude for the ancient horologue. Uncle Jackson went back to his Michigan tarm— and I went to work among the bears and bulls here in Chicago, on the old board. "The watch, as you remembered, Carroll, was an enormous 'bull's eye,' and weighed half a pound, easy. But I wore it, and laid aside my own more modern timepiece. The boys used to laugh at it a good deal, and got In the habit of asking me what time it was, just to see me lug It out, and to pretend that I had been selected to decide disputes as to the exact hour and second, and all that-sort of nuisance, you know. But I didn't much care. Uncle Jackson couhi have any old thing he'wanted from' me then. He was getting old—and he had a bushel of deeds to good Michigan land. "One Saturday afternoon, hurrying on to the boat, going over to visit Uncle Jackson, I took out my match to see if I had time to run back upon some trifling errand I h,ad forgotten. The ancient chain parted a link, the watch rolled from my hand, fell upon the gangplank, quivered there an instant, and then plunged .with a malicious plunk and gurgle into the Chicago river. "I came near to diving after it, as it weqt down, so great was my consternation, but finally was content to hire two river roustabouts to try to SS appeared and 1 had no knowledge of its whereabouts. condition that she marry my cousin Charlie, whom I hated with true cousinly rancor. Uncle Jackson calmly signed the altered will; then he turned his face to the wall and quietly departed for a better world." The story-teller ceased, and once "Have you brought the watch?" he gasped sternly, more raised his half-filled glass with a gesture of invitation. "What in the world do you suppose became of the old watch, anyway?* demanded Cusack, who possessed an inquisitive mind. "Huh!" answered Thompson. "When I got home againx a saloon-keeper sent me word he had my watch in his safe, waiting for me. He had taken it away from me one night in fear I would lose it while on that costly spree. He knew its story and wanted to protect me." "And then?" "Then? As soon aa I got my hands on It again I walked deliberately to the Wells street bridge, and a second time consigned it to the Chicago river. Packed and Print Butter. n we take the following: The quantity of butter made at creameries hag been reported under two heads—"packed solid" and "prints or rolls." • It appears that of all creamery batter, $2,956,690 pounds, or 78.5 per cent is packed in solid form, and 91,169,956 pounds, or 21.7 per cent, in prints or rolls. The totals of these two forms in the several states indicate differences in the market requirements and the local customs as to preparing butter lor shipment and sale. In the New England states, the numerous cities and large towns easy of access furnish markets where butter can be sold directly to, retail dealers or consumers. For this purpose it is prepared in bricks, prints or balls weighing a halt pound or a pound. Vermont excepted, the creameries of these states make twice as much butter Into prints as they pack in solid form. In Rhode Island and Connecticut with consuming markets at their doors, eight pounds of creamery butter is put into prints to every pound packed.

In New York the practice has always been to pack batter solidly in firkins, tubs, or'boxes; and print butter Is rather exceptional In the great market of New York city. In that state, therefore, four and a half pounds of butter are packed to one pound put in prints. The Philadelphia market on the contrary, and Pennsylvania markets in general, have always been noted for print butter; consequently it is not surprising to find that the creameries of that state report almost as much made into prints as the quantity solid packed. From Iowa, Wisconsin and Minnesota butter must be sent long distances to market and naturally goes mainly in bulk; less than one-eighth of the creamery product of those states is made into prints. South Dakota, even more remote from market, packs 99 per cent of its creamery butter in solid form. But upon the Pacific coast local customs favor butter in rolls of two pounds weight accordingly in the states of California, Oregon, and Washington, three-fourths of all the butter made at creameries is reported as In prints or rolls.—Farmers' Review. found she was suffering from s>< easv ease of the *ye jthal IW**f 1** **~ trance into this, cotrotry.

Then the boat cast off her lines, and I started for the lion's mouth, wondering what kind of a lie would go down with Uncle Jackson. He always wanted to see the old watch, about the first thing, when I went over to vlsH him on Sunday. "After deep thought I concluded to say it was in a jeweler's hands for repairs, trusting that my amateur divers would recover it foi me by tbe time I returned. Perhaps I faltered a little in detail when I told him this tale. He was very Inquisitive about i t and it Beemed to me unduly suspicious. Nevertheless, he affected to believe me, and at last I breathed freely; then he confounded me again by announcing a desire to return with me on Monday morning to Chicago. "As the boat landed my divers met me gleefully at the wharf, watch in hand, claiming their reward. They had recovered the old turnip at the first effort I learned afterwards, but they prateVl much of their desperats search in the dirty river, and insisted upon receiving the promised $60. I waa caught red-handed, so to speak. Uncle Jackson took in the situation at a single look. He was very grave. " 'I could have excused your heedlessness, Tom/ he said, 'but I hate to have you lie to me. Don't do it again, my son. Remember the old watch. It never told a lie in all its life.' "He went home that very afternoon, wearing a severe countenance. I was full of gloom. All my worldly proa* peeta hung upon Uncle Jackson's good will. That night out of the pure perversity which makes a man do tbe wrong thing when ho should be pursuing only the right one, I began a wild spree, tbe first and last one of my life. It lasted a whole week. When it was over my watch had dig- Kansas Identified. "I crossed the United States In July," said the returned partisan. "Did you go through Kansas?" asked the bystander. "I didn't hear the place mentioned," said the tourist. "Well," said the bystander, "you passed through a place where there were leagues upon leagues of corn, didnt you?" "Yes, was that Kansas?" "It might have been, and it might have been Indiana. Did you go through a state with miles and miles of prairie?" "Yes, I remember it well; so that was Kansas?" "It might have been and it might have been Iowa. What other state of corn and prairie did you see?'' Well," said the tourist, "one state we passed through had lots of prairie and lets of corn, and on that July day it was very hot, and in the evening ever so far we could see a house, out of the rear chimney of which oozed a little column of smoke, which went up straight aa an arrow for ten miles and a half."

Foster said: In the most convenient place on each side by my stable I hang a spring scale and very conveniently is placed a lead pencil and a card (about 5½xl5 inches for ten cows, small as possible, so as to be handy), ruled and cross-ruled, to make one square for each cow for each day of the month. The weight of the morning milking for each cow is put In the top of her particular square and the night weight underneath. The scale, pencil and record must be convenient and the work of recording will soon become a fixed habit just as much as the brushing off of the cow's udder, or any one of the thousand things we do without ever thinking of the work it is nor the time it takes. At the end of each month a new card replaces the old one, which goes to the house to be figured up and entered In the yearly record book, so as to show just how many pounds of milk each cow has given each month since she came to my dairy.

John Saul, a veteran of the civil war, lives near Bridge water, Me., and has been married three times. Bach of his wives is dead. The latest Mrs. Saul having crossed the dark river six years ago. Ever since then the widpwer has been considering what sort of an inscription he would place on the headstone at her grave. He finally decided on this, which has been engraved on the stone by a local marble worker: "To the memory of Mary Ann 8anl. Born Dae, 22, 1842, died Aug. 6, 18*4. Erected by her loving husband. She waa the best wife I ever had." Blanketing Cows. From time to time blanketing of cows is advocated. This has been tried in various parts of the world— in the United States, Europe and Australia. It has several times been reported on quite favorably. Tet it always drops out of sight again in this country. Some of the Dutch farmers have the habit well fixed. One of the leading butter makers in Wisconsin has in past years followed the practice of covering his cows. Generally the covering is done to keep off the cold, hut sometimes to keep off flies. Covers for the latter purpose are of course too light to be of use in cold weather, and it covering were extensively practiced summer and winter it would require two sets of covers. For the present there is little likelihood that American* dairymen will take kindly to the blanketing idea— certainly not so with, those that believe a wire fence is ail the protection a dairy cow needs in winter.

A brief statement will show how no church has any controling interest in the Anti- Saloon l e a g u e . The State Superintendent is a minister in the Friends Church, though he graduated at the Ohio Wesleyan University, arid"has-heltreome^natiori* al position among the Friends, and is well known among them in this country and in England.

Of our District Superintendents four are Methodists, two are CougregationaliBts, and two members of tbe Christian church. A B we look over our printed letterhead,, containing a list of our officers and superintendents, we find seven denominations represented. We shall be glad to propose names of all denominations of Michigan for places of honor or activity, if their denominations or their friends will forward such names. No denomination has been more cordial toward our work than the Baptists. President Slocum of the Baptist college at Kalamazoo has been one of our influential and helpful speakers. The above statement shows the general interest and unity of purpose monifested by the churches af Michigan in this great work. We are glad that we meet with so little of anything like jealousy among the great hearted people of Michigan. Brethren let us each find his place in this great work. We are in tbe presence of the enemy. Let us unite and organize for presistent and continuous battle. The enemy is dragging souls down to hell.

This is true not only of soapy water, but of the cleanest and purest water AS well A. aheet of fine gause tends to float, because, its weight being wide, ly distributed, each of the numerous aeparate wires is resisted by the surface film so that the water cannot Readily pass through the meshes. Insects and plants utilize this fact in many interesting ways. Some water plants whose leaves float oo the water havea-very ekapte coptilvanee-to keep the upper surfaces of the leaves dry. Tula consists of a great number of minute balm covering the tops of the leaves. Water cannot penetrate among these hairs even when the leaves are forced down beneath the surface.' The little rafts of eggs that gnats set afloat on the water are kept from sink* lng and from being upset through this same principle. The tiny egga have their points all upward, and they are glued together so closely that, while there is open space all around the point of each egg, yet the width of these spaces Is so slight that water cannot readily pass through. You may again and again upset such an egg raft, but it will right itself every time, and the upper surface will remain dry.

They know it, and it's no use to deny i t " "You left a wife at home—a wife and child?," "Yes." "Your wife was named Mollie and your boy baby's* name Paul?" "i don't admit or deny." -- "After you sailed away so many years your wife gave you up for dead, and with her child removed to Fresno, Where she lives now. She never told her Eon the sad, uncertain fate of his father, fearing when he grew up he would start in search of him, and she always had a superstitious dread o' the forests o' Alaska." The sea captain sat unmoved throughout the narrative. Ben went on: "But when Pant, Millet grew to be a man l^e heard ofcthe fabulous riches in Alaska and came to find it. He had amassed quite a fortune, when he was robbed, followed the robbers to the woods and was captured by them. Now, the young man yonder is Paul Miller, your son." The stern old captain was unmoved save a shght twitching ai the corners of his mouth, but he made no answer. Ben continued: "Though you may have lost the walrus hide on which the map to the buried treasure is, yet you know the spot, and can take us there. You shall do it or I swear that your son shall die before your face." Again Ben Allen was disappointed. The old man was wholly unmoved, as if he had been talking to stone. The captors waited about him with halfsuppressed breathing, hoping that something would occur to break his Imperturbability, but they were disappointed. The threat of Morris had only been to intimidate the prisoner. He was willing to make any sort of threats, but not being the hardened criminal Ned Padgett was he called a halt at the line of murder. "Boys," continued Morris, "1 haven't given up all hope yet. We may be able to do somethin* with him. Let's keep up the scare." "Agreed." "We can even get a rope and go through pretense o' hangin' the youngster." "That's it; go through anything to make the old rascal tell us where it is." ? "%*•- With this resotattoB more firmly fixed in their minds they once more returned to where thft 4 f t captain sat AS unmoved as when^ihj^ left him. * "WelLXapUin MBler, have you dec} de$Jto fell u l where you cached the treasure?" ask^d Ben XIten. "No;" was the immediate answer. "Do you want to see your son hang before your eyes?" "I have no son." "Don't you know that young man is your son?" The prisoner fixed his great blue orbs on the speaker and in a firm, unmoved tone answered; "He is not my son. I may have a s e a living. I once did, but he Is not my son. I like the young man, for he is noble, brave and honesCbut he Is no relation to me." They were wholly unprepared for this answer.

Paul was tb look after the guard and the captain to seise the rifled The young ' tfi*h nodded assent to the request ' expressed by the captain's eyes, and began to act. They rolled up the blankets and left them on the straw, with their caps stuck over them, giving them, in the uncertain light, the appearance of two sleeping men. Paul went first on hands and knees, creeping around the little mound of stone and earth and over the loose stones with all the caution possible. He was closely followed by the hermit, who seemed to possess the wonderful faculty of moving .without noise. The_sentry stirred tn his sleep when Paul was within ten or fifteen paces of him. The determined youth seised a stone and leaped..toward hini. Ned Padgett suddenly started up with a yell and had half raised his.rifie, when the stone, hurled with Sre|t precision and force, struck him o$> t s * shoulder. Down he" went undei the blow\ dropping the rifle at Paul$;feet To seise the cun. and turn at bay on the others was the work of ;en instant: They' were' starttng up "from their sleep and Ben Allen shouted: "The prisoners! They are-making their escape!" ors were abashed. . They fell back before the piercing glance of the ofsV *cer against whom they had mutined. The baffled rascals swore like troopers, and Ned Padgett made an appeal for his knotted stick, but was over- .rulfd, and''after some more deliberation It was decided to try the effect of the* rope on the young prisoner. "I tell you he is the son of the old man; watch him closely when we go to hang him up and see if his eye does not grow moist" They had a rope made of seal hide, and, cutting a pole with their hand axes, stretched it across the narrow end of the cavern and placed a rope about Paul's neck. "Now old' infch, confess that you have lied, and swear that you will take us to the gola, or this young fellow will die." Paul, who had not heard the conversation between the hermit and his captors, was unable to explain their conduct to his,own satisfaction. He believed his last hour had come and determined to meet his fate like a hero. When told to prepare for death, he rose, made no resistance, and his arms were tied behind his back. The noose was adjusted about his neck, and he took his position under the cross-bar, and, closing his eyes, murmured a short prayer. All eyes were on the other captive, but he sat with face averted and said not a word. There was no change in his expression—no more indication of grief than might have been expected at the death of a stranger. When the miserable farce was over Paul had been released, and the four rascals retired again to confer with each each other. Tom Ambrose said: "Well, it's my opinion that we've lost our last chance of ever getting his buried millions." At this Padgett again proposed his knotted stick and swore he would brain both with it,abut he was prevented by Morris and Allen, who declared there should be no real violence. The two prisoners were given a meagre supper of dried beef and a little meal gruel, and driven to the far end of the cavern for the night. When they were apart from the guard Paul asked: "What was meant by their extraordinary course to-day?" "They labor under the mistaken idea that we are related and both have some knowledge of the buried treasure. Aa they are mistaken they will succeed in getting nothing from us." 'I have been mystified ak their strange conduct ail along,"'said Paul, "and I would not be surprised at any time at their taking our lives." His companion shook his grizzled head and answered: "No, no; they won't harm us so long as we have the secret in our own breasts. If we should tell them and they should find the treasure, then we would be killed in short order." Paul shuddered, was silent for a while and asked: "Then you don't believe we have any hope of mercy at their hands?" The sea captain answered: "No." . "Captain, let's make our escape." "Sh! Speak lower; you may be heard." "I will, but I am in earnest.'* 'So am I, but we must be cunning as the fox to escape from those rascals." "I am willing to trust you implicitly." "Then say nothing." Though night and day were the same in that dungeon, the captors had their sleeping and waking hours. Paul and his companion threw themselves on their miserable pallet of straw, hut not to sleep. They lay BO &ey could watch their captors. , At last, one after another, they began to grow drowsy. One rose and went toward the pile of straw, and stretching himself upon it, was soon snoring. A short quarrel followed on the subject of guarding the prisoners Padgett was the man selected and he swore he had 'done more than his share at that business and he wouldn't do any more of it, but MorriB, who seemed the person in command, declared he must take his turn of two hours, and left him on duty while the others went to bed. The whole matter could not have been better planned for Paul, for Padgett was careless and yawned sleepily before his companions had closed their eyes. For a long time he made a fight against the wiles of Morpheus, but at last his head dropped forward on b,ia chest Paul raised his own head . and shoulders from his pallet of straw and surveyed the entire cavern at a •weeping glance. There was 4 .Are burning In the center which threw, out « doll, ruddy glow, dimly lighting the ecene.

Paul could also see that &elf eaptwrs* 'had placed 4«eir rifles in a corner farthest from them. The three men sleeping on^the straw CHAPTER XI. The Dog Courier. Paul Miller drew his rifle to his shoulder and let drive two or thTee shots in quick succession, sending their late captors flying helter skelter to the rear of the cavern. Whether any of them were wounded by his bullets or not he did not stop to learn. He then seized the rifles, blankets and caps and the two men hastened away from the cavern, taking the precaution to secure not only the rifles, but three pistols and all the belts of cartridges they could And. Both of them had filled their capacious pockets with dried mooBe meat until they stuck out like stuffed turkeys. They broke two of the rifles because they could not carry them and strapped the others on their backs. Long they traveled in a western direction, guided by the stars. They had given up all hope of finding their Metlakahlan friends, who no doubt supposing them lost, had returned to their home on the island. After wandering three or four hours into the forest and being completely exhausted, the two fugitives rolled themselves in their blankets and slept. They dared not build a Are. for it might attract the attention.of their pursuers. When day dawned they made a breakfast on some of the dried moose they had brought with them and prepared to resume their journey. They discovered that they were gradually ascending a mountain side. On all sides of them were forests of scraggy spruce, the trees seldom being over five or six inches in diameter, and ferns and other forma of plant life were occasionally noted. At last they came to i great- cleft between gigantic snow-robed mountatos. 1. • "'• * The first night After they began their ascent they camped . on the mountain side near/ a* spring ami gpread their blankets under the tee^bf a large bowlder."

The care of cats of absent mistresses and of those which are raised for sale- has become a matter commanding great attention, and in Its; up-to-date features is sufficiently amusing. The dietary time-table and dally routine on one of these modern cat farms is described as follows: At 8:30 the cats have saucerfuls of food, prepared as for a baby, and g.ven while warm at the consistency of cream. At 12:30 they dine either on a well-boiled sheep's head, cut up very fine, or by way of change they have a fish dinner. At 3 o'clock a drink of warm milk is provided. At 7 p. m. they have fish and rice, or biscuits soaked in milk. Clean boiled —they are emphatic about the boiling—— water is always kept on hand, as cats suffer from thirst more than is f enersl.'y Tealiv.el. A w.b'ie cat should be cleaned exactly as you would clean the fashionable white neck fur. The hand of the cleaner should be dampened, not wet, in some water in which a few drops of ammonia have been poured. The cat should then be stroked. It should then be sprinkled generously with flour, which must be rubbed well into the fur. This must then be thoroughly brushed out, and the coat polished with a silk handkerchief. This ceremony should be rarely indulged in, as a healthy cat will keep itself clean in clean surroundings. The cats at the farm in question realise prices which frequently run into three figures, so the care bestowed on them is not altogether unreasonable. Shabby, but Had the Price. A shabby old man recently came driving through Allen county. He said he was from Arkansaw, and his crow-bait team and rattletrap wagon had the stamp of Arkansaw upon them. He wiggled along until he came to the farm of Mr. McAdams, near Kincaid. There he stopped and began to survey the farm in an indolent sort of a way. "Is, she for sale?" he arawled to Mr. McAdams, who had ccme to tile fence fo observe him.

This is Samuel Finley Breese Morse, the ,artis| and-,}j^ntor, whose.aanie is indissolubly ^.associated with the earlier stages of development of the electric telegraph. . The slab was placed on this house in 1883. It is worthy of note that the great reputation of . Morse was acknowledged in Rome w,ellnigh. twenty years before the propriety of raising a statue to him was discussed at Washington. There are, however, many other memories of Americans in Rome, associated with different places, although not recorded in sempiternal bronze or inscribed marbles. It is impossible to say who were the first visitors from the newly discovered continent of the west to the Eternal City; but it is a notorious fact that the elaborately carved wooden celling of the great church of Santa Maria Magglore was gilded with the first gold brought to Spain from South America, which was presented to Pope Alexander VI., himself a Spaniard, by King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella. From this thene is a long gap before the American traveller makes his appearance in Rome, if ordinary records are to be trusted. Among the earliest visitors from the United States to Rome in the last century was William Hickling Prescott, the historian of Mexico and Peru, whose delightful account of Ferdinand and Isabella is a classic. In 1816 he made a visit to Rome, coming from Paris, after leaving which he and hi3 companion, John Pickman Gray, "stopped a day at La Grange to pay their respects to Gen. Lafayette," as his biographer, George Ticknor, red * h - ^ % ^ l v k g ; F " c a w and wheo talent was regarded as % above ruble*.

In Story's most notable book, VRoba di Roma," a condition of life no longer existing is depicted with masterly skill, A contemporary of Story's in Rome a generation ago was the poet and painter, Thomas Buchanan Read, a man of most winning personality and remarkable ability. He then Palazzo Barberini. lived in the Via Babuino, having the windows of his apartment on the fourth floor, looking into the Piazza di Spagna, that beloved resort of the English-speaking foreigner in Rome. This house was afterward inhabited for several years by the distinguished archaeologist, Commendatore Rodolfo Lanciani. Early in Story's days in Rome, the ablest among American artists of his time, William Henry Rheinhart of Baltimore died. He also was a sculptor, and all his fellow-artists of America and all the Italian artists who were capable of judging good work were unanimous in placing him far above any of his contemporaries from the United States, and equal to the best of others. In the Piazza Barberini, a short distance from the palace in which Story resided, Louisa Alcott took up her residence. Here in this house, that stands between the Vias S. Basllio and S. Nlcolo di Tolentino, she had an apartment, and here she began her book MLittle Men." Whitney's Varied Abilities. Willlata C.

Then they went on by Lyons, Mont Cents, Turin, Genoa, Milan, Venice, Bologna, and Florence to Rome. There they remained about six weeks, but there is no mention, at least in Ticknor's life of Prescott, of the place where this historian resided. In later times the number of visitors from the United States increases. George Stitlmsh Hillard, a Boston lawyer, beheld Italy for the first time on Sept. 2, 1847. In 1856 another lawyer, who had forsaken the art of persuading by words for the art of winning by sculpture, William Wetmore Story, entered Rome for the third time, rn the later years of his life Mr. Story was not only a representative American art! if. but his residence In the MSgnlflceat Palazzo Barberini was a ceriter to which the great bulk of the Intelligent and prominent Americans were attracted. Few strangers know Rome as Mr. Story did. He had seeuLit when It was an artists paradise; when the Pope might still be seen driving along the Corso or walking in the avenues of the Pincian Oarhimself a noted figure in four different departments of endeavor. He has been successful as a lawyer, has been eminently successful in business, has attained almost the high* eat honors in politics, and to-day la easily the leader. of the American turf. If to these things be added the fact that he married an heiress and has been one of the two Americans to capture the first place in an English Derby it will be seen how large and varied and successful has been the field of Mr. Whitney's activities." Advanced Journalism. The following quaint announcement appeared in a recent issue of the Tribune du Sud Ouest, Mantauban, • France: "According to our old custom, both editorial and composing staffs will take their holiday from this day onward.

Pjrioe26c Form of Architecture Popular in Pensacola as in Esely Days. It is noticeable that the vestry of Christ Cburch parish, Ponsacola, Fla., has taken the Spanish architectural form, for a new church building for the parish. This is most appropriate. Pensacola was in all its early history a Spanish colonial city; its streets and public places are known by Spanish, names; many of the people have Spanish blood in their veins; there is still the Spanisn atmosphere there, as in St/ Augustine, although modern Pensacbla is truly American. Visitors to that city expect to see something recalling the ancient history of the place; but such is -the -force of innovation that, with the passage-of time, all relics are likely to be obliterated, and no distinction be traceable between a tqwn in Spanish Florida and a town in Oklahoma, says the Mobile (Ala.) Register. To counteract this tendency—at least in part— the new church building is to be a return to ancient forms. It will resemble a Spanish mission church in general style, with hero and there the graceful ornamentation that is seen in the Seville cathedral. This much, we deduce from seeing the picture of the new church. We assume that the design was selected with the object above stated. A Catch in the Back.

Proae a n d Poetry* Despite the noble work done by men lo various as Ruekin and Stevenson, Pater and Newman, one feels that the full glory of prose, as a medium for beauty, was not realized by them—is not yet realized save by a few. Prose la not yet written aa frankly for its own sake as poetry. It ought to be. Of course I do not mean that it ought not to be continued as a vehicle for every kmd of didactic purpose. But it aught also to be used by those wbo eould well use it so fer the expression of merely lyrical feeling. In modern English prose there are, it la true, many lyrical passages, but tbey *re always sandwiched apologetically in the midat of expository writing. The only separate prose lyrioe that I can recall written in English are translations from-another language, such as Mr. Andrew Lang's translation from Theocritus. I recommend that dear little book as an incentive to young writers of prose. It will embolden them to be merely lyrical, thus hastening the day when writers of prose shall be aa specific and distinct a class aa poets are now.—London Academy. usual order of business was fofc lowed by dinner.

Nearly every one present had some experiences to relate, and the general opinion was that the tramp should not be fed at the farmers door; those who were in the habit of feeding them did it more through fear than from love of humanity. Mrs. Sarah Brown gave a select reading and the program was closed with a song by Miss Florence Andrews. The October meeting will be held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. F. L. Andrews tbe last Saturday in the month, when each member will answer to roll-call with a quotation from Shakespeare. COR. SECY. Forty f ears' Torture.

Mary A. and Johanna Birnfy, of Lansing; Mrs. Frank Birney, Eaton Rapids; James Morgan, Ypsilanti; Mrs. Catharine Markby, Port Huron; and Mrs. J. W. Harris, Pinckney. Her husband died in 1871 and she has lived since that .time on the the old homestead with her daughter, the late Mrs J. J. Donahue, until last December when she carae t^ Pinckney to live with Mrs. J. W. Harris. Mrs. Morgans early life in this country was beset by many trials, but she bore all with great fortitude and helped hew out a home in tbe new country. Many times with her small children around her nas she opened her door to admit several indians who demanded something to eat and a seat by the fire. One of her closest friends in olden times and up to tbe time of her last illness was Mrs. A..S. Montague who was hurried Sept. 29, the day of Mrs. Morgans death, neither knowing that tbe other was seriously ill. She was a kind wife and mother, a devout Catholic, and a thoughtful neighbor. She died as she had lived, peacefully trusting in ber Savior. The funeral was held at St. Marys church, Thursday, Oct. 2, attended by a large concourse of people wi o came to testify to their esteme. The caske!; was burried in a mass of flowers at the altar, gifts of numerous friends and relatives, She leaves besides her six children, 32 grand children, 24 great grand children, and a large cirole of relatives and friends.

The eyes and ears of everyone has b8en turned the past week to tbe conference of tbe coal strikers andf. mine owners with President Roosevelt, and the oat-come was anything but successful. The question seems as far off a*; ever if some drastic measures are not soon taken. The mine owners would agret* to nothing and in a long letter to the conference said many things uncomplimentary, among them the following:— ' 'You see there is a lawful way to secure coal for the public. The duty of the hour is not to waste time negotiating with the fomenters of this anarchy and insolent defiance of law, but to do as was done in the war of the rebellion, restore the majesty of the law, the only guudiau of a free people, and to re-establish order and peace at uny cost. "The government is a contemptable failure if it can only protect the lives and property, and secure the comfort of the people by compromising with the violators of law and the instigators of violence and crime." To us as well as to thousands of others this seems like an insult, not only to the President but to the government itself, especially as John Mitchell, presidtnt otthe mine workers submitted a letter with the following statement:-- "Mr. President, I am much impressed with wluit you say. I am much impressed with the gravity of the situation. N\'e feel that we are not responsible for this terrible state of affairs. We are willinp to meet the gentlemtn representing the coal operators to try and adjust our differences among ourselves. "If we canuot adjust them that way, , Mr. President, we are williug that you j shall name a tribunal who shall deter- ! mine the issues that have resulted in the strike^ and if the gentlemen representing the operators will accept the award or decision of such a tribunal, the miners will willingly accept it, even if it is against their claims." If one who, (according to the mine owners,) is the leader of law-breakers murderers, etc., is willing to come half way, yea more than half way, leaving it to a tribunal of the best men in tbe United States, and the con* trollers of the mines will do nothing toward a settlement, it looks as if there was a "nigger in the fence'* somewhere. It the mine owners are right why should they afraid of any j inquiry aud adjustment by the Presi- ! dent and tribunal? Rev. W. G. .Stephens of Plymouth, was in town the first ot the week. Mis^ Mae Jeffreys who has b>en in Ann Arbor returned home the past week. . . Although the evening was very poor Saturday last, the entertainment given by Mrs. Shearer was well attended and all were pleased. Mrs. S. is an elocutionist of no mean ability, and her selections are finely rendered. The ladies aid society oi Lakin's appointment are invited to meet with Mrs. Lewis Love, Thursday p. m. Oct. 18. As Sir. Love and family expect to move in a few days to Howell, let everyone attend and enjoy the visit. An early tea will be served. Ex sheriff Roche who is in the race for register of deeds, is looking after his political fences throughout the county. Those who know him will be only too glad to speak a good word forbirn. His record as a county officer has been a clean one and above reproach.

The result met with general ^approval, especiallyainoug the other •xadJdAteB on the ticket, and while a fcard flghl w a s made by Thos. E. Barkworth, of Jackson, and Dr. Weaver, of Charlotte, to prevent the selection of Darand, they both declared that they would support him. A canvass before the meeting started it certain that Duraud would re- 13 votes on the first ballot, and a decision would ha' e been reached salves earlier but for the long speeches l a a d e ojr. those who were tryiug to « w i n g some other candidate Into line.

Just prior to being sentenced he admitted to the court that Maurice Houseman, of Grand Uapids. W. W, Hyde, of Grand Rapids, represented Dudley Waters; W. E. Thompson had Rush Culver's proxy; Martin J. Cavanaugh, of Pontiac, also had a proxy from the upper peninsula. W. J. Sampson, of Hillsdale, voted for H. C. Blackman. Mr. Durand was notified of hits selection and accepted. "I shall certainly refnse to support the nomination of L. T. Durand, and I shall actively and earnestly oppose him," said Mr. Helme, and during the evening prepared a written statement of his reasons for publication. A Serloaa Charge. Frank Labene, aged 55, is in Moujoil, charged with attempted criminal assault on Mary Masson, aged 10 .jears. The affair caused great excite- Mneot, and if Labene had been caught •I»y the mob which searched for him ffle would have been severely dealt w i t h . 'The child had come from her borne a* Brest with her 13-year-old brother t o meot their parents, who had gone to Toledo for the day. While waiting Labene engaged them in conversation, and when the car came along the boy w e n t out to meet it. Mary remained at the station, and it is claimed that Labene at once took her away to a place a mile from the heart of the .etty. Frightened by the little one's <«rfes, It is alleged that he went away, ¾ving her to walk back to town ne. She was seen by two young women, who brought her in. Labene was arrestrd a block from the railway station, and denied wrongdoing of any kind. The child's story doesn't agree with his, however. V*" T o Worm the Poor. T h e coal famine has assumed such alarming proportion* hi Kalamazoo that should the strike continue it is absolutely certain many poor families wiH be In direst want. So strongly nan thfs impressed Superintendent of the Poor Oatherman that he is looking about for large houses which can be secured to house destitute families and keep them warm, nt a much loss cost than if supplies of coal or any fuei ^were given out to be used at individual homes. The proposition has also been made that the churches be kept heated and open rind supplied with cots and sleeping arrangements to accommodate the poor. M:iny church people express the belief that this Mould be necessary, and that tlie churches could b e put to no better usr*. A Successful Fair. The. West Michigan State Fair closed Saturday after a successful week. It i s estimated by the managers that aft e r paying all expenses the association will have about $20,000 to its credit. TMans are already being discussed for another fair next year and many improvements are contemplated. Among *he most Important is the erection of A new grand stand or the building of a n addition to the present one. Twice this week the grand stand gates wero of necessity closed when thousands of tlieople wanted to be admitted. A new exhibition building, the construction of a midway and the platting of the grounds into graded streets are also bei n g discussed. R«t»son*s Bo4y Found. A postmortem was performed on the body of Charles B- Rabson, who was found in the river nearly three miles from Saginaw where he plunged into the river, and his stomach was found to be in a normal condition. The wouud on his head, where he was struck by Frank Flewelling, who took him for a burglar, was not very deep, and the skull was not fractured. A telegram was received from Victoria, British Columbia, Saturday night, by Chief of Police Kain stating that relatives there would not do anything regarding the remaius. The telegram intimated that his widow will have to bear the expense of burial. It Is believed that Kabsou must have swam down the river a long ways, as there is not current enough to carry him that far. His body was discovered by three boys In a boat. His head was sticking above the water and his feet were buried in the sand. Instead of the $500 or $800. which the bride said was on his person when he left thejiouso. only two $5 gold pieces and three pennies were found on the body. The pockets did not look as though they had been distuH> ed. What has become of the money Is a question. A Touirh Baby. When "Baby" Comey. the young Detroit criminal, stood before Judge Xewnham, of Grand Rapids, yesterday and received a sentence of 25 years at hard lalwr in Marquette prison, the severest ]>enitentlary in the state, a fitting climax was reached to 23 years of n life that has been devoted to thievery and vileness since Us earliest childhood. He could do anything in the line of a sneak thief or a pickpocket. His family lived in Detroit several years ago. But the mother and father died when "Baby"^yas very young, and he was always left to shift for himself. His brother, Danny, is a well-known pickpocket. "Baby" has been arrested about twelve times in Detroit and has served time in Ionia. The truant office has his record, ami it is u bad one. He used to hang around the notorious Kuhn and Sullivan families, who moved to Chicago nixmt ten years ago. They were a particularly vicious lot and sank to the very lowest strata of criminality after they left the city. To© Many Peaches. T h e Ludington peach market is In a state of complete collapse. Buyers refuse absolutely to make any offers for the fruit and thousands of bushels are going to waste, their value not bel o g sufficient to pay picking and hauli n g to town. For several days the lo- «al market has been glutted and many thousand baskets have been dumped Into the lake. Fruit men say that the condition has been brought about by a n over-supply of inferior fruit recoolly placed on the market. B l l j a k ' s W i r e s . Elijah Clark, of Horton Bay, is « much married man. One wife lives in Antrim, one in Charlevoix, and the third accompanied him to Petoskey, where he was brought on the charge • f obtaining groceries under false pretenses. While in the county bastile C o t G. W. Dickinson recognized him a s the man to whom he had refused a •fcvnse and who bad married later s t Maneetona. Prompt conviction on the •steer Charge has saved him temporarily from complaint for bigamy. A s i r e w i Saae A f a i a . H e r J. R.

Much lias been made of the fact th.it the Michigan Central Hallroad Co. may bring suit against the state of Michigan to recover damages resulting from the repeal of its special charter by the legislature, and the necessity of having incorruptible state oilicials to represent the state In that litigation. Without evidence on which to base the amount, it has been declared that the state would be sued for $27,000,000. The sworn statements of the company omolals as to the earnings of the road, however, raise the question of whether a jury can be convinced that the Michigan Central has sustained a loss by reason of the charter repeal, for It is shown that during the first eight months of this year, after the twocent rate went into effect, the Michigan earnings on that road were $130,000 in excess of those of the first eight months of 1901. Bor Miaslas*. P. Manly Anderson, the 0 year-old son of Joseph Anderson, of Grand Uapids. mysteriously disappeared last Thursday, and all efforts of his parents to locate him have proved futile. Th<> boy left home that day to go to the Turner street school, and has not been seen since by his parents. The police are making a genera! search for bltn, but no trace of him can be found. HI* parents fear that he has either been kidnaped or fs drowned. u A. L. Chandler, of Owosso, shot a quail in the presence of 20 witnesses, and then sent the game warden a full nceount of It. The official will probably make complaint, which Chandler, who is sn attorney, wishes htm to do. *Phe women' of Owosso are kept pretty close to their homes nights unless they are accompanied by an escort owing to the actions of a "Jack the Hugger*." A trap has been set for him and if he is caught It is .likely to 40 hard with him. ' his forgeries would amount to $35,000, and that all his life had been one of crime—all forgeries. His quiet return caused as much exciteement as did his sudden disappearance. The court room was jammed with former friend*. Including many ladies. He took bis sentence very coolly and made the remark that lie expected a longer term.

Six thousand Illinois cltizeng dnriiwr the last twenty-four hours have signed1 a petition asking President Roosevelt to call an extra session of congress to enact some monaure for the prevention of a coal famine. One method aujrgeftted in the petition is the provision for the appointment of a temporary receiver to operate the Pennsylvania mines, which are closed on account of the strike. The petition is being circulated all over the city of Chicago and throughout the state of Illinois, under the direction of United States Senator William B. Mason. Caamdiaa Coal C o a t t a * .

B5 FllibHstets. BY FRANK H. SWEET. (Copyright, 1968; by Daily Story Pub. Co.) • group of Spanish officers were standing in front of the mess quarters at Babi* Honda. Ther had Just come in from Havana and on the morrow were to start across the mountains toward Cristobal on special service. It had been a long, hard march, and they were/ hugry and tired. In spite of all that was behind and of what might be ahead, their one thought was of the meal whose savory odors were Issuing from the hastily improvised mess quarters. The sun was. not yet down, but the shadows of the date palms lay thick about their feet They watched them listlessly, waiting for the mess call, and then ready to seek the low thatched building where they were to sleep. From the shadows of the samo date palms a group of ragged, emaciated boys watched them keenly. They, too, were mindful of the odors that came from the mess quarters, for they sniffed eagerly, and from time to time they whispered to one another and pointed toward the building or the officers. Presently a boy of nine or ten, with keen, snapping black eyes, stole to a palm tree that was but a few yards from where the officers r*.ood. In the shadow of this he waited until his companions had circled round to the shelter of a • clump of bamboos on the other side, .and very near to the entrance of th9 mess quarters. There they paused, as though for a signal. And it was not long coming. With a sudden wild wh^oop the boy with the snapping eyes sprang forward into the very midst of the officers, swinging his arms and dancing about as though he were mad. In an instant almost, and before they had recovered from the surprise of the unexpected onslaught he had snatched a sword from one of the scabbards and bounded away. At the same moment a cry of consternation came from the mess quarters. But the officers did not notice that. They were too amazed, too angry at the audacity of this ragamuffin, who had stopped a few yards away and was how brandishing the sword defiantly In their very faces. With exclamations of anger they sprang forward to a man, and the ragamuffin, instead of trying to escape, dodged this way and that, under the outstretched arms of one, behind another and almost between the legs of a third, all the time taunting them and daring them on. He was like an eel that squirmed out of their hands even after they caught him; or a flea that was anywhere except where they thought i t Five for the first time that their mess cook and his boy assistant were chuffing about wringing their hands. ' "What are you doing here, Garcia?" one of the officers demanded impatiently. "Go back and hurry up supper." But Garcia continued to wring his hands. "There is none," he walled. "No meats, no breads, no fruits. Oh, senors! oh, senors! What shall we do? Me and m v D o y Jose were finishing a beautiful supper—oh, so beautiful!— and a horde of wild creatures rushed In and threw flour into my face and Snatched a sword from one of the scabbards and bounded away. minutes passed in exasperating dodging and doubling before they succeeded In dragging him, back, struggling and grinning to the mess quarters. And it was not until afterward that It occurred to then that he had made co reel effort to escape. As the excitement of theohase and capture begat to subside they noticed "Let this be a lesson." tripped Jose, and when we recovered there were no meats, no breads, no fruits. Oh, senors! oh, senors!" Two or three of the officers rushed into the mess room. When they re* turned their faces were blank. "Garcia's right," they said, "the place is stripped as clean as though visited by .locusts." Then they stopped abruptly, as though making a discovery, and glanced at the captive. "You are responsible for this," one of them declared. The boy grinned. "Si, senor," he said composedly, "why not?" They stared at him and at each other. Was the boy mad? If so, it was a madness that must be punished. "Shooting is too easy for a thing like that," scowled the one who had lost his sword. "It's a case for hanging." "No; hanging's too easy," declared another, gloomily. "You don't know how hungry I am. But there goes the pursuit," as they saw soldiers scattering among the palms. "Perhaps the supper will be recaptured." The boy sniffed. "Five minutes* start," he grinned significantly. "A thousand men couldn't find the boys now. They know hiding places your soldiers never dreamed of." The officer in him curiously. "There is something behind this," he 8aid thoughtfully. "You are old enough to understand the conse* qliences of such an act, and too wise to throw away your life for a little meat and a few loaves of bread." The boy's eyes began to flash and for the first time his face lost Its grinning derision. "I have risked my life for a little meat and a few loaves of bread," he declared quickly, "and I do understand just what the consequences are. But what is life when my mother is sick and starving, and when my sisters and grandfather and grandmother ^are all starving.' I would risk it, and lose it, too, a hundred times. The boVs have food enough now to last them a month," his voice ringing with exultation. "You may kill me if you want to. But you haven't soldiers enough to get the food back. And it wasn't stolen, either. You have destroyed our crops and taken our cattle and fruits, and they would pay for this a thousand times over." He threw his head back and looked iquarerytfrto their eyes. ; 'There Is another thing I don't mind Itelling you/* he wenioa afcfcdjlys "go* I father's away fighting, and I^ajaW he* away *ghtinf too, tf 1 were <*& •aoSghT A*I*isV.wsvftogsj loot art* the twallr^ He** t*» *#**»* «•*', slon i#mm*m-ito:*m >"*** horded at *wild creatures' Tout cook teilt about were Jest my three brothers and two of my cousins, the; oldest only thirteen. They'll look after the fan* Uy now, and when this food is gone, 'they'll find some way to get ihpjsr Now k«l me U you want to. I'm not afraid," A curious expression had been eonv Ing into their eyes. Above all things a soldier nespects bravery. "Come, gentlemen/* said the officer in command gruffly, Mwe must settle this at once, ,£amp will be broken early, and there will be no time then. The case is a flagrant one, and calls Her— severe punishment,. Bui I will leave the sentence to you, Be Guise," to the officer whose sword had been taken; "as the most aggrieved of us; the first vote belongs to you. What punishment is adequate to the offense?" The officer scowled. "I would condemn him to perpetual banishment from us," he answered harshly. "And you, Bourmont," to the officer who had confessed he was hungry. "De Guise is too mild, too mild," this officer said, scowling also. "I would add that in addition to his sentence the condemned be made to carry away a sack of flour as large as himself— as large as a man can lift" "And you," "and you," to the other officers. "I consider the sentence Just, and recommend it," said one. "And I," "and I," said others. "With perhaps a little more added to the burden," finished the last judiciously. **A prisoner of this kind should be crushed." "Very well, gentlemen," Bald the officer in command, "you will see that the sentence is carried out to the letter. And you," turning severely to the wondering boy, "let this be a lesson. Never do a thing unless you are ready to do it with your whole heart. If you had shown a white spot, I would have had you shot" No Questions to Be Asked. When J. P. Morgan was traveling for pleasure through rural France on one occasion, he engaged a local photographer to take and develop some views of interesting places. The photographer, receiving nothing as a retainer, did not begin the work until he had consulted with the manager of the hotel where Morgan was stopping in the neighborhood. Yes—the manager knew Morgan, and thought Morgan all right. "But, monsieur," said the photographer, "it is such a large order! Can I safely trust this American for 300 francs?" "Mon Dieu!—300 france!" exclaimed the manager. "Trust him! — yes; for anything and everything under heaven he may take it into his head to dream of! He is pre-eminently a reliable man!"

He should not let them rinse them over the cream vats as they do in some factories I visited last summer. You should find out right away where the poor cream is coming from and go and tell the patron how to care for it, and until he does take good care of it and keep it sweet so that it will not be "off flavor," he should be docked from 15 per cent to 20 per cent of the cream. Do not take this off all the patrons by putting all the cream together and making a poor grade of butter and getting a low price for it, but make two grades of butter and get the highest price for the best and get as much for the poorer grade as most of the creameries get for their butter.— Farmers' Review. 4 •greet.

V A L U E OF LOOKING Doing Mis Best It somehow seems little enough when you say That a fellow is "doing his best." It means that he tolls and he hopes day by day That Heaven will attend to the rest. He is jostled aside by the hurrying crowd, Unsought by the lonely; forgot by the proud. He earns what he gets, and no more is allowed To the fellow who's "doing his best." But whenever a crisis arises, we look To the^man who Is doing his best. The prince with his splendor, the sage with his book, Full oft fail to answer the test. And when there's a home or a country to serve, We turn to the man with the heart and the nerve, The man; whom adversity's touch could not swerve, The man who kept doing his best. —Washington Star. His Best Investment. "When I knew old Hunks, years ago," said the returned traveler, "he hadn't a soul above dollars and cents. I find him' now the best read man, . _ . especially In history and the works of command lcwk7Sd~at-f-tne stajl<iard novelists, I ever met. 1 can't understand the change in him." "The explanation is easy," replied the old citizen. "He lent $1,000 to a man who wanted to start a high-class circulating library. After a year or two the man failed, leaving nothing but the books as his assets. Old Hunks had to take them for the debt, and as nobody wanted to buy a lot of second-hand books, he started in and read all of them to get his money back." King Edward's Pulk To the French people of Canada Sir Wilfrid Laurier is the greatest if not the only great person living. Some time ago a "habitant" arriving in the city of Quebec met an old friend and fell to talking politics. In the course of conversation he happened to mention the name of Queen Victoria and the friend informed him that the queen had been dead for a year. "Dead!" exclaimed the countryman, "and who, then, rules in England?" When it was explained to him that the Prince of Wales had succeeded to the throne he shook his head wisely. "Mon Dieu!" he said, "but he must have a pull with Laurier." War on Milk Preservatives. Borax and various other chemicals are used in the preservation of meats and some other foods. Generally the argument for their use is that they preserve the foods and do not injure the eaters, as they are used in small quantities. This may or may not be true, but it is true that in milk no preservation should be used. The agent of a borax preservative company once called on the Farmers' Review and protested against the constant attacks on the preservatives by the Farmers' Review. He claimed that he could prove that when used to preserve bacon preservatives of the j borax kind were not harmful. He was asked "how about milk?" He said that no preservative should be used In milk and that his company had freely said that milk was not a food article that should be preserved by borax or anything else. Yet borax is being constantly sold for the preservation of milk. Invalids and children are the principal sufferers. This is from two reasons. First, they are weaker than vigorous adults; second, they use far larger quantities of milk. The milkman that uses preservatives in milk does an act that approaches the criminal.—Farmers' Review.

This is a good and it points to a plain dutyshould never allow ourselves to press outwardly by word or by any. unkind or unhappy thought feeling. To do so is only to tend and foster that feeling, to make it grow p.nd get final hold on the character. But by affecting the helpful virtues; we will dwarf, and finally pluck out altogether, the evil in our nature, aatf we become in character the good things we have caused to appear- in our countenances and in our voices.— Woman's Home Companion. What Do Your Cows Pay You? A creameryman of the Elgin district made the statement that among his patrons were some who did not now and never had realized more than $35 as an average per year from each of the cows of their herds. He told of one patron who takes the trouble to keep an account of the feed he gives his cows and the receipts from milk and his average is (35. One other patron, who has none but common cows, realized no more than the above sum on his cows until he decided to accept the advice of the creameryman on the care and feed he should give them. He was one of those patrons who, if he wanted to stay In town until 10 o'clock at night he did so, and the feeding of his half dozen cows was done after he got home. He had no particular knowledge about feeding, but when he finally came to believe that he could make money by following the creameryman's advice, be went to work to learn and do bis work properly. He succeeded in brioging his common cows up to being $55 instead of $35 cows.—Chicago Dairy Produce. A Supervisor's Story. Lockport, N. Y., Oct. 6th.—MR. George P.

Look After the Hand Separators. No good thing is a success unless looked after. It is no argument against hand* separators to say that unless they are taken care of they will iu a year or so^beconre unserviceable. One man urges against them that he has known people that did not wash their separators more than once a week, and that in the meantime the separators were a point of multiplication for all kinds of ferments and perhaps disease germs that got into them. But no agent of a hand separator would want to sell a hand separator it he supposed the buyer would use so little intelligence in its care anl handling. We are in a state of chaos as regards our dairy matters, and it is only slowly that we are working into a condition of order. But we do not believe that the hand separator is at all the cause of die crder. The Woman toitba Beautiful Complexion t fe the woman whose cheeks pertzay , the glow of health.

There are so many ordinary cougb remedies made by druggists and others that are cheap and good for light colds perhaps, bat for severe Coughs, Bronchitis, Croup —and especially for Consumption, where is difficult expectoration and coughing during tbe nigbfs and mornings, there is nothing like German Syrup.

The parish kirk of Driechton had been rather unfortunate in its ministers, t w o of them having gone off In decline- within a twelvemonth of their appointment, and now, after hearing a number of candidates for the vacancy, the members were looking forward ten miles away. T h e proposed law divides Boston into eight ideal option districts. I n one of these, Boston proper, no more than 500 saloons may bo licensed if Lcense prevails. I n t h e remaining seven districts no more than o n e saloon may b e located to a thousand of the population. T h e total possible number of saloons in Boston, in the quite impossible event of all districts voting for license, is 903. A t present t h - r e are 982. Therefore if t h e law is enacted the city will have 79 less saloons than it h a s now. • He Learned a Great truth.

Wai ati9i*i "Q^V Actt* ol Skcpy Prominent titer Art Buried-* GrtmsGrown *ad Neglected (Special Correspondence.) NY one who may be pasting along the main road between Tarrytown and Oaalniisg in the northern part of Tarry town sees the old Sleepy Hoi* cemetery extending forty or rods along the east aide of the thoroughfare, with the quaint little church at the south end of it. The cemetery may be entered arih^c^rclTgate or any where along the low stone wall tnat separates the graveyard from the road. The long, narrow cemetery, climbing the steep hill irom the church, is beautiful in situation, but unkempt A workman has a contract to cut the grass twice in the seaaon; and except for a short time after he has plied his scythe among the crumbling gravestones, the thick and matted grass lies in tangles that completely hide from view the broken stones which once marked the last resting places of farmers and their families who died two centuries and more ago, representatives of the first generations of Dutch settlers who lived in the valley of the Hudson. The church society has little money with which to keep this ancient cemetery in repair; and so, as the bones of the burghers buried here have crumbled into dust, the little brownstone monuments that marked their graves as long as any lived who remembered them have fallen into where the visitor may nave a view of the tier* of grave* within rising Above one another on the hillside, • little northecat 04 the center of this enclosure is the grave, of Washington Irving. It is distinguished from the others only by the fact that the white marble tombstone is a utile broader and higher and has a rounded and allyhtlv ornate ton. It bears, simply the name, the age and the dates of the birth and death of the distinguished author. Around his grave are fifty or sixty other tombstones each bearing the name of Irving or showing by its inscription that the person commemorated was a member of the family. There is no trace here of the ruin and neglect that mark all the older parts of the cemetery. In another part of the churchyard are the graves of the Badeau family; its most conspicuous member was Gen. Adam Badeau whose record in the civil war and connection with Oen. Grant made him well known. His tombstone is rather more conspicuous than the others, but none of the thirty or forty graves of his relatives shows that it has any attention save from the scythe of the sclitary grass cutter. Ourlously enough one of the older tombstones of this interesting spot is still erect and its inscription may be HOME OF WASHINGTON IRVING. ruins; if any still stand, the effacing storms and decay of many years have left in most cases only a trace of the lettering, some fragments of which may still be read. A little way inside the wall is a narrow path steeply climbing the hill, passing straight over scores of graves that are marked by no upheaval of the soil but only by fragments of gravestones whose bases, still rooted in the earth, are likely to trip the unwary pedestrian. There could be no more forcible reminder of the futility of trying to perpetuate at least a name and the record of the beginning and the end of an earthly pilgrimage. Climbing north along this path through the grass that overhangs and over the tombstones that encumber it, the visitor reaches at last a broader walk running east and west.

They Journeyed on until nightfall, and went into camp in a spot somewhat screened by rocks. Next day they resumed their weary march through, the 'most desolate country. The skies ,became overcast, and the snow beganvto fall in great white flakes, which rapidly covered, the ground,, . y When night came they halted under the shelter of some rocks and thick, bushy top spruce pine. A blanket was stretched over them, forming a .partial shelter. "We are almost out of food," the captain said as they ate a small portion of the dried moose meat. "How,.are we to replenish our stock?" "I don't know." It was a painful subject to discuss. Their chances of ever reaching a civilized camp were gloomy indeed. Paul's fortitude was tried to its utmost when, weak and faint, he was continually spurred on by the remembrance that Laura was in the wilds of Alaska. About the middle of the afternoon the snow ceased falling, ana the two men trudged on, sinking into the white covering almost to their knees. Suddenly the hermit stopped and said: "Do ycu see that?" He was pointing to a trail made in the snow by some animal, and Paul answered: "Yes; what made it—a bear?" "No; it is either a dog or wolf." The thought of a supper on either was repulsive, and the two trudged on in silencer • A mile, farther they saw a white dog with black spots oh the aide of his head drinking at one of the lakes. Paul reached for his rifle, fort ttte captain said: "No, don't shoot him; he may prove our friend." Paul began to call .and whistle tothe dog, using terms like the Esquimaux. The animal gave them a look of satariee, and then bounded toward them, yelitfng in his Joy at meeting a human" companion. "He has a collar *abtmtr his heck," said Paul. "I say, captain, if we release him he will go back to his master, will he not?" "Certainly." "Then we may make a courier of him. Let us write a message, tie it to his collar and send him away." "An excellent idea." Paul had a small strip of seal skin, and under the embankment he dug out a bit of red chalk, or ochre, usully called keel, and, dressing one,end to a pencil point, wrote: "We are in the forest, out of food and starving. Follow on the trail at once and find us. "PAUL MILLER AND COMPANION." When this had been fastened about the dog's neck, he was released and sent bounding away through the forest When the dog courier had been dispatched with his message, the two men trudged on a mile or two farther and halted. Evening was approach* ing, and they were on the banks of a lake In a marshy ground covered with a thicket of bushes. Here they built a small fire and made a supper on a part of their slender stock of food. Sudden)? they were startled, by a crashing in the bushes, accompanied by a roost half of terror and half of defiance. Paul seised his rifle and both leaped to their feet "A moose." The captain nodded. "It is our only chance for life." Again the captain nodded. Paul gave him an inquiring glance, and the captain* made a sweeping motion with his left hand at the same time disappearing on the right. 81owly and carefully through the melting mow and tangled thickets Paul groped hit withholding hit rifle . in one hand and parting the bushes with the other.

He fired again and again at the struggling beast. With a snort of agony it made a few plunges blindly into the thicket and fell. Paul roused himself in a moment and rushed to its side. Despair quickly gave way to joy, for here was food. The moose was a giant in size, and would furnish them with food for days. He cut Us throat with his knife and then for the first time thought of ilia companion. He called aloud, and fired a shot in the air, but only the echoes answered him. "He will get on my trail and follow me;"'thought Paul, and began to skin the dead moose without feeling in the least uneasy. Having at last completed hia task, he built a fire, and, cutting off some of the choicest steaks began to broil them over it. Paul had been on short rations a long time, and never steak tasted better. Paul wrapped himself in his blanket and lay down by the fire to warm himself and dry his clothing. The night passed In troubled dreams. When he awoke it was broad daylight. When it was noon and Paul's companion did not come he began to feel uneasy. Could it be they were lost? To become separated he thought would be fatal to both. He roasted and packed away all the moose meat he could carry, and after another, restless night, started out to return to the spot where he had last seen his companion. The lowering skies portended another storm, and before he had gone five miles the snow was falling in blinding fury, completely obliterating the trail. For hours and hours Paul staggered on until he came upon a gTeat, high wall of stone, which barred his farther progress and partially sheltered him from the driving storm. He spread his blanket above him, and, finding some dry pine sticks, kindled a little fire, over which he stretched his half-frozen fingers. His suffering throughout that night was intense, and it is a wonder that he did not perish. But morning came, and, cold and hungry anl In despair, he crept away from the great cliff under shelter of which, he had passed such a miserable night. He reached a deep ravine in which was a great deal of dry pine wood, and, he proceeded to make a fire. The fire blazed and roared and gave out a generous heat. He was soon warmed, and, wrapping his blanKet about him, slept throughout the day. Night came and he awoke, and, building another fire, slept throughout the night. Next day the sky was clear, and he started on his wandering, going in the direction of the Yukon. He slept that night in the shelter of a rock, and the next morning started again on his journey. About the middle of the forenoon he saw a party of men coming foward him, and shouted and danced for joy. He ran to meet them yelling like a madman. At last he came up with them. The leader was a tall man about his own age. He gazed on the being whom hardship, exposure and toil had so completely metamorphosed that he was unrecognizable, and asked: "Who are you, and what are you?" Paul started back with an exclamation of horror, and well he might. He was face to face with his most bitter enemy, Theodore Lackland. It is necessary at this point in our story that we take leave of Paul for the time being and return to the brave girl whom we left hastening to the dangers and wilds of the polar world for the man she loved. Laura kept up bravely so long as she could discern the form of Mrs. Miller on the dock, but when' it faded from view she fell upon a steamer chair and burst into tears. A hand hardened by toil and softened by love was laid upon her shoulder and a low, gentle voice whispered in her ear: "Don't cry, pretty one. It's a hard lot ye've chosen, but there's a rich promise in the future for ye." Looking up she saw the kind face of the wcman called Kate Willie bending over her. "I know, child, It's tough on ye V go avay "from friends and relations. sure von that it will not last long.

"I am not going to the Klondyke to work," answered Laura. "Not goto' there f work?" "That is, I am not going to dig gold from the mines." "Well, what are ye goto* for?" It was a long, sad story, but Laura - Ai -z.L* A tt«tt«r from Congro»aman WhlUy of Nartr»<SafpUne P&BtMiA IS A HOUSEHOLD SAFEGUARD. No Family Should Be Without It, PERUNA is a great family medicine.

"I don't doubt you, my good woman/ I don't doubt you," Laura declared. "Pardon this weakness and let me aslike you, and some said pretty, I had a lover, a gallant young sailor lad. He always told me how he loved me and wouldn't never marry another. We were goin' t' be married when jack came back from the next cruise. He was tired o' the sea, and I was tired o* havin' him go away so much, so we decided that it was to be the last voyage. He sailed t' the north in the Arctic seas somewhere an' never came back." She sobbed a moment in silence and resumed: "A long time I couldn't give him up, I didn't believe that he was dead, but at last I had to give in that he was. Two years after a sailor came into port who had been in Jack's crew and he told how Jack and his captain had been led out into the forest by savages on promises o' flndin' a great amount o* gold, and both killed." Laura, who was very much interested in her sad story, asked: "Why are you going to the Klondyke>" "I am goin' where I kin make money; where I kin git rich, and help young people, so they won't suffer as I have..' From that time on they became the best of friends. They were together most of the time and exchanged hopes and fears, and both kneeled at night to ask God for guidance in their course in the future. Their long voyage was at last enTied. The great engine was slowly puffing as the vessel was driven slowly into the bay. The vessel ran to within threefourths of a mile of the shore and dropped anchor. They had been discovered by the people on shore, who were waving handkerchiefs and hats, firing guns and pistols in the air. The boats were lowered and men climbed into them. "Don't be in a hurry to go, child," whispered Kate, who,, exercised a sort of motherly control over the girl. "There's another ship in." "Where did it come from?" Lauru asked. "San Francisco, I'm thinkin'. Fact, I know it's from San Francisco." Poor Laura little dreamed who had come on that vessel, starting after she did, but beating her to the land of gold. Even had she known whom the vessel brought she would not have been able to guess his object in coming to this country. They went out on deck again to find it cleared of passengers. Another boat was lowered, and they were asked If they wished to go ashore. "Certainly," said Laura. They descender! to the rocking boat, and were pulled ashcve by eight sturdy oarsmen. A porter came from the boat with her pretty, white bag, which seemed in harmony with the spotless purity wUich surrounded them. She thanked him and gave him a silver dollar for his trouble. Then she turned to go with Kata to the hotel, when she suddenly stopped, started back, and, with a cry of alarm, fell into the arms of Kate Willis. Before her stood Theodore Lackland, a smile on his contemptible features. Kate Willis was dumbfounded at the conduct of her charge. She knew the girl had unexpectedly met some one, and the meeting was highly disagreeable, but could not, of course, understand the true cause. Kate knew the man before her was the cause of the trouble, and at once began to berate him. "You unprincipled scoundrel," she cried. "What do you mean by comin' here to frighten this poor child to death?" In a moment Laura had recovered her self-possession, while Kate continued : "You ugly, hatchet-faced, spiderlegged kangaroo! You flannel-mouthed red-headed dude with brute's milk eyes! You three-card monte, faro bank shark, with a tongue as black as your heart! You—" "That will do, Kate," interrupted Laura, regaining her speech. "This man's sudden appearance startled me. (To be continued.) coughs accompanied by gagging.

Thanking you heartily, I am."-—L. J. Sherrinsky. ' Mrs. "Nannie Wallace, Tulare, CaL, President of the Western Baptist Missionary Society, writes: * I consider Peruna an indispensable article in my medicine chest. It is twenty medicines in one, and has so far cared every sickness that has been in my home for live years.
