Young Mens and Boys Clubs You may have tbe best set of brains in the town but if you haven't tbe manners of a gentleman nobody is going to appreciate you. Geo. Washington said: "From boyhood up I ha?e wiitten uuthiug, said nothing of which I am ashamed.' When a man tails back on oaths be declares himself out of argumetts. No man was ever made the richer, wiser or better by profanity. Profain speech never gained for you tbe respect ot a single person and never can, never will. To speak God's name in prayer does not mean much to one whD uses,, it in oaths. Swearing is biting at Satan's bare hook. It satisfies no desire, acquires no property and makes no one happier, wiser or better. Pre*. Tbe camping season for this year will soon draw to a close.

Ellison, of 2919 Vine street, Kansas City, Mo., is found to be the mysterious woman in the Moyer murder case at Detroit, who is now held, by the officers of that city under the name of "Anna Smith." Mrs. Ellison was found by Lieut. Baker and Detective Downey, of Detroit, who were assisted by Detective Rafferty, of the local bureau. The Ellison home was quiet and did not presage the storm which was so soon to break. Mrs. Ellison was ill in bed, but when the officers entered, expressed her willingness to return with them and tell what she knew of the murder and robbery of Moyer. Her husband, Byron Ellison, is employed as a stationary engineer in the Thayer building at Ninth street and Broadway. Ellison was left in darkness concerning the real import of his wife's last visit to Detroit. He supposed, until Saturday afternoon, he says, that his wife had gone to Detroit as a witness in the cafe, DecauW she Tiaarldden on the train on which the robbers left The actress who wanted her green eyes made brown would have saved .money if she had conquered her jealousy without going to a doctor.

"When I went home Wednesday night I found a note from my wife saying she had gone to Detroit as a witness. She owns no jewelry except a ring and a set of earrings which 1 gave her years ago." When told of the belief of the police that Mrs. Ellison had spent some time with, two alleged thieves in a tent near the Blue river just out of the city limits, Mr. Ellison was indignant. "I know that is false," he said. "I have not been away from home for four, years, and my wife has not been away from home a night since we were married, except when she was in the east." When asked? the date of his wife's departure for Detroit, to visit her daughter. Mr. Ellison said: "She left Kansas City on July 3." Mrs. Ellison is 36 years of age. She and Byron Ellison were married twenty years ago. They have one child, a daughter nineteen years of age, who is. married and living in Detroit. Mrs. Ellison is popular with a wide elide of friends. The diamonds, which the woman had In a canvas bag, complete the fail lot taken by the robbers with the excep tion of two small stones. She fully admits her illicit relation with the man who ;ave his name as Johnson. Harry Parker is known by the Kansas City police to be one Charles Weakly.

The officers say that Sherman and Weakly robbed a number of stores in Independence lasL spring among other articles stealing a quantity of hardware. This plunder, k is claimed, was concealed in a tent stolen from Fairmount park and set up on the bank of the Blue river, near Sheffield. While the two were engaged in building a host, for the supposed purpose of taking their "popLidown the river, Mrs. Ellison, it a said, visited them frequently. Before the boat was completed, and in the absence of the thieves, a gang of boys stole the tent and most of the hardware. They were seen making away with the much stolen property and the police were summoned, arriving at about the same time with Sherman and Weakly, who fled at the officers appearance. This was on July 3, and was the last time Sherman and Weakly were seen in the vicinity of Kansas City, the exact date Mrs. Ellison left for Detroit. Detective Kinney,' of Kansas City, says: "I positively identify this man, giving the name of Johnson as Thomas Sherman, a Missouri ex-convict, and the man claiming to be Harry Parker as Frank Weakly. Both are wanted in Kansas City for burglary. They were the occupants of a tent on the Bine river, where they secreted goods stolen from Independence stores, and "Kitty" Ellison, was with them, at least part of the time, there. "In searching for the two burglars I traced Mrs. Ellison to Detroit. I found that she had a private' letter box engaged at the Detroit postbfflce, where she could receive mall without her relatives knowing of it." ~ Leslie A.

President Roosevelt is exertiug every particle of his great influence to prevent a rupture of the peace conference at Portsmouth. He is engaged In a supreme effort to induce the envoys of the belligerent governments to compromise their differences and reach an agreement that will result in "a just and lasting peace." In this effort he has the active aua cordial support of Great Britain, France and Germany. Tremendous and world-wide pressure is being brought to bear upon the governments at' St. Petersburg and Toklo not to permit the Washington conference to fall of affirmative result. It can be said that there is ground for the hope that It will not fail. Baron De Rosen, Russian ambassa dor to the United States and second of the Russian emperor's envoys 'to the peace conference, was with President Roosevelt late Saturday afternoon at Sagamore Hill. He came to Oyster Bay by Invitation of the presl dent, not merely to discuss with him the situation, but to have presented to him by the president a proposition lew • • w. i k R. H.

After he had discharged a number of bricklayers, Davidson^ received a call from a man'who is supposed to have been a union business agent. That was several days ago. The interview between the contractor and; the. stranger, ended in a violent quarrel tn which.,,, Davidson knocked his caller down op the floor of the new building. Two days later Davidson left his work as usual. But he did not reach his residence. The next day an unknown person called Frank W. Adams on the' telephone and, said: . — "You will And your man Davidsoa iu the river." Since that telephonic communication no word has been beard of'Davidson. Didn't Frighten the President That Erie railroad officials were) alarmed for the, safety, of President Roosevelt on his way from Chautauqua to Jersey City, Saturday, is shown . by the fact made known that the preslr 'dent's car did not come in oyer the main line. Instead, the Chautauqua special waa broken in two at Buffalo, N. Y , and the presidents! party was brought in by a roundabout way over two small branch roads. President Roosevelt was said to have objected to the unusual precautions taken but acquiesced when positive orders from President Underdifferences which have arisen between th* p l f t n i p o t e n t i a l s of the two gOVelements. After his conference with the president, Baron De Rosen left immediately for his summer home at Magnolia, Mass., where he and Mr. Witte, the principal Russian envoy, expect to spend Sunday. Japan has Implicit confidence in the president and although without any official knowledge of this latest movement the Japanese plenipotentiaries feel certain that the president is acting not only In behalf_of_ peace, hut as much In the Interest of Japan as Russia; that before Baron De Rosen arrived at Oyster Bay the president was In full possession of Japan's views and knew on what points she might under certain conditions yield and what demands were regarded as essential and unchangeable. Japan, it can be stated, must somehow be reimbursed for the cost of the war. Unless the emperor shall change his position, which his plenipotentiaries do not for a moment believe is probable, RusBia must yield on'article nine (war indemnity) or Japan will be forced to continue the war. The status of the peace prospects when the president 3ent for Baron De Rosen follow: ACCEPTED.

Hundreds of families are leaving Marion, Grant county, on account of a prediction by Mrs. Viola Pownell that the city Is soon to be visited by a disaster, the full extent of which she does not know, or exactly in what form it is to come. Some time ago, however, she prophesied that all evil places would be uprooted and that much of the worst element of the city would be scattered. Since that time 40 of the 108 saloons and all the pool room8 have been closed and all the gamblers have been run out of the place. The fulfillment of this prediction has been so remarkable that there is Implicit reliance in what she says and many are fleeing from the wrath to come. Mrs. Pownell is not a religious . fanatic, but a modest, retiring woman, the mother of four children, and domestic in her tastes. The people that are leaving are not all Ignorant or upeducated, but many of them are intelligent and some of them engaged in business Remarkable Explosion. A recent fatality at the Ludington mine at Iron Moutaln was one of the most remarkable chronicled in the Lake Superior mining region. Three men were working at the bottom of the new shaft, which is about 1,000 feet deep. A crew of miners had just finished drilling nine holes and filling them with dynamite. The three—Anton Erlckson, William Anderson and Charles Anderson—were connecting the leading wire to the . charges of dynamite, preparatory to exploding, when lightning struck the shaft house, ran 1,000 feet down the steel cable attached to the skip, which was resting at the bottom, and exploded the charges. Erlckson was instantly killed and his companions severely hurt. Typhoid in Washington. Twenty-nine new cases of typhoid fever and two deaths from the disease were reported to the health office in Washington, D. C, Tuesday.

A scheme with this end In view will be submitted to congress at its next session. It has been under consideration for several weeks by officers of the department, and they now have the plan in tangible form. The regular army now consists ol 60,000 men; but it can be expanded to 100,000 by filling up the companies of the regiments to their maximum strength. The new plan contemplates the creation of a "regular reserve" of 40,000 men, which would consist of-the able-bodied discharged soldiers, whose names would be placed on file In the war department and who could be pressed into service at a moment's notice. They ^weuld be paia S3 per month for keeping in touch -with the department The new plan includes the creation of a national reserve of 100.000 men, whose addresses would be filed with the department. They would be paid $.3 per year. Then the national suard would bring the fighting strength of the army up to 25fy00v men. John 4). on Parade. John D. Rockefeller has decided to try the Knelpp cure.

It was soon after dawn, when the lawn was still wet with dew, that Mr. Rockefeller was seen to come from the kitchen door of his Foresi Hill home. Around his form he drew A bathrobe and shivered as the chill morning air toyed about his bare feet. Plunging? boldly on, Mr. Rockefeller walked over the grass, apparently not taring who saw him. Tossibiy he thought that the early hour would prevent curious eyes from prying, but he neglected to count on the milkman, the news carrier and a few belated pedestrians, who stopped on their way to witness the spectacle. After half an hour's vigorous exercise Mr. Rockefeller returned to his room. Beads ol perspiration stood on his brow and his face was a ruddy color. He appeared in excellent spirits and seemed to en joy the exercise. China Must Stop.

They were gathered at a blacksmith shop in (own one rainy day when one of the young farmers started the ball rolling by telling of kilting a big "rattler" in the hay field. This was followed by scleral other stories more or less '<snakey.M Finally "Mac" spoke up, Mac is a man who can tell many a good story as he has seen much of the world, so when he spoke all turned to him, the blacksmith quit his forge and all gathered in the corner. •'When 1 was out west" said Mac, "I saw many of the mouutain rattlers which are about as big and bad as any that creep. While there I fell in with a man who had traveled in India however and he told me a story which put all my experiences in the shade. It seems thut he was iii a party of four or live prospectors anil were driving across the country through the dense timber etc. with a team and covered wagon. One day they stopped-for dinner and had just started to move on when the horses acted queer aud we went ahead to see what was the matter. We saw a few rods in advauce a huge snake that had evidently just feasted as his body was swelled to a large size aud he was apparently asleep. We had seen enough of these fellows to know that they were not daugerous so we took au axe and crept upon him wheti one of our party hit him a blow on the" back of the head with the flat of the axe. This made his snakeship very sick and he began to throw up his big meal. Before we were aware of it he threw up a dozen natives, their spears, axes etc. and three canoes. Those natives saw us and grabbed their weapons and made for us in true cannibal style.

Why does not the government tax the bachelors -and those people who are married and do not have children and give each mother who gives birth to a child a certain sum of money? It might do some good. Notwithstanding _the unearthng of wrongdoing in this country, and the press and the atmosphere are so charged with talk about graft and grafters, it may be an opportune moment to remark that, after all, the average man is tolerably honest. We are in habit of saying, whenever any big steals are discovered in the United States government service, that they order these better in England, France, Germany and the rest of the world. This is a mistake. The crookedness connected with the furnishing of the army supplies to England in the Boer war of 1899-1902 were, it is now, discovered, greater than those with which the United States was afflicted during the leave onr outfit in their posesslon and made our wav back to the nearest settlement the best we could.

Through intermarriage it can easily be seen that the majority, if not bound in the toils of polygamy by immediate family ties, are at least by those of ancestors, relatives, friends, Every member of tne church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is involved in polygamy in so far as he supports a president and apostles the greater part _of ..HJUonLArj^il!ectJxii5fiUcfti§d^ his crime which masks in the name of a religion. Every month thousands of tourists return from Salt Lake City, assuring their friends at home that there is no more plural marriage in Utah —assuring them furthermore, with the confidence born of a few days spent in Salt Lake City, that the Morman religion is quite like other religions and that its people are intelligent, God-fearing and patriotic in no way different from other American citizens. The Morman bureau of Information in Temple Block, which-=eBtei^84iw^"^sr^>r»==ia©st courteously, dispeaes Morman literature gratuitously, and furnishes as guides through the Block well informed and intelligent representatives of the church, is largely responsible for this attractive knowledge of Mormanism. For all these services, gratuitously tendered, I am in the debt of the Bureau of Information. ( I too, was entertained in like manner, April 21,1904. My faith that the government MIGHT wipe out this evil from our fair land fell when I heard one of the Elders tell some young people whom he was entertaining, "We have twenty four hundred of our brightest and best young men in the mission field."

In consideration of the fact that the Morman church which was organized in 1830, has now three hundred thousand members, and wields power disproportionate to its members, the declaration of the late President Woodruff that men of today would live to see every state west of the Mississippi under Morman control, is less bravado than a threatening truth, and the ambition of the Morman church to control our national government less an absurdity than a growing possibility.

Iu the profouuder depths putrefaction cannot take place, so if the dead fish once reaches those calm, chill abysses he would be preserved until the end of time., Probably, however, no such peaceful repose awaits more than an inflnitesimally small proportion of the finny folk, and no great accumulation of lifeless bodies exists at the bottom of the sea.

To the people of the place the arrival of anything or any person was a subject of excitement and. they all wet to see what the vessel brought them. To their great Joy besides stores there had come a number of people to cast their fortunes with them.

She had not been landed five minutes before her shoes and stockings were off and she la his boat to the ship and' prevailed on the captain to take her bach to England. Her protector went with her and i p o n investigation uncovered a plot to get rid of her that another might secure a fortune she had Inherited.

But while she had been •porting the tide had risen, and after she had advanced till the water became so deep that she could raise her skirts no further she stopped and cast her eyes to the shore as if looking for help.

Abigail wondered what had sent them away in such a hurry. Young Hugh endeavored to make her aware of the terrible danger overhanging her. "Why," he asked, "did you put yourself In such jeopardy?"

As the day of the examination arrived, it became evident that there was to/be a large* attendance at the cotirtibom. It was understood It had been called by Hamilton, rather than to await the stover action of the supreme court, whose next term was yet at some disgrace. I have no intention of giving a pro* llx, account of the examination, only a general summary of particulars. The Justice, with great dignity, before swearing the witnesses asked Mr. Hamilton if he wished to be examined personally, assuring him that hie was j name, not compelled to answer a single Question unless he chose. *I am well aware of that," said Mr. Hamilton, "but I shall answer probably every question that you put to me that I can." "That is well/* said the justice, "but the law compels me to caution you, as all questions and answers will be written and presented for use in case of a trial by jury, that you should answer truly, if at all, Mr. Hamilton. Such questions as you choose to answer you can answer; but you can, also, refuse to answer any question, saying simply, 'I decline to reply to that question,' and at any time you decline to be questioned any further your examination can close." Mr, Hamilton related the story of his leaving home, as he had done to ft<g wifp, and Mr. Tayre^ ^ 9~tne officers of the bank. There was much" excitement manifested at his assertion that he lost all sense of personal identity when or about the time he reach' ed Portland. The justice questioned him regarding his many mysterious absences in the month of May. For the first time the cashier appear* ed to hesitate, looking about the room for a moment with uncertain •A "Z think ;*ot. I think I said that I did not know him at first. Still, at this distance of time I could not swear that the name was not spoken during the Interview," "This point introduced by Mr. Hamilton that he did not know his name, and therefore could not have signed it to the letter, would apply to the interview at the bank* in the same way. If Mr. Hamilton did not know his name, he could not give it to you. If he did give his name as Hamilton then the inference would be that it could not have been Mr. Hamilton, since he did not know it from any other." "Well, I do not think he gave the "But yon cannot be certain." "I cannot recollect, but my impression is that the name of the cashier was not mentioned." In the court room was the cashier of the Cheshire bank, when the four hundred dollar note, altered to four thousand was presented, and he was examined at this point. He stated concisely that a man who closely resembled Mr. Hamilton, as he appeared now, gave, him the altered note and said that he was the cashier of the Grovedale bank. . "I knew the name of the cashier was Hamilton, and I-called him so, probably, during the.interview." "Why. do you say probably?" "Because I usually speak a man's name after addressing him." "Can any one present certify that Thirls Mr. Hull's usual manner4^ask~ ed tne justice: "I can," said President Hartwell." "And I, also," said Simon Low. "He usually introduces the name of $he person addressed in every sentence." A point like this was most puzzling, and of considerable consequence. Taken in connection with the fact that he had stated he was the cashier of Grovedale bank, the whole was tantamount to an acknowledgment of -issues. Perhaps MrJ^Hamilton^fsaju better and resumed his watch of the proceedings with a degree of interest oddly at variance with his half-hearted manner as a witness. "Puzzled, or something to conceal— which?" asked both Brace and Swan, who were watching him. Justice Bailey at this point question' ed Mr. Lamb somewhat in regard to hypnotism. ,* "These most marvelous phenomena exhibited by hypnotism," said Mr, Lamb, "have been Questioned, but they are real, no doubt." "Can every one be hypnotized^ . "No, not every one. Some affirm but a limited number of people are capable of being hypnotized, but I incline to the belief that the number is much.larger than is generally believed." "What is the effect afterward?" "It tends to disturb the nervous equilibrium, and, if frequently repeated, may lead to deterioration ot brain and nervous function." "Could an operator make a subject think he was another person?" "Undoubtedly he could." "Can you tellwhether a person is capable of being hypnotized?" and the. justice's glance moved toward Simon Low for an instant. Every heart stood still for the answer. "No, sir. To determine that with certainty one must possess the power to hypnotize, which I am thankful to state I do not." Mr. Low looked much relieved, but the audience correspondingly disappointed. "Has hypnotism ever been proved a factor in crime?" "Yes, sir; more than once." "Does the condition of Mr. Hamilton's brain imply that be has been hypnotized?" "I cannot say at present. I should want counsel before making any statement in regard to a matter of so much consequence and involving so many ftlAO ON OLD TOM1STON1S.

SALT RHEUM ON HANDS. Suffered Agony and Had to Wear Bandages All the Time—Another Cure by Cuticura. himspif ftivft snm^ explanation of the The manner of the young man was far teas nonchalant than usual, gaze. But he answered with composuse in a moment: "I went away on business." "Will you tell us what the business was—of what nature?" "I must decline to answer that question, not because I should not care to have it known, but because it is, or was, connected with other parties, or persons, who would object." One of the specialists, Sidney W. Lamb of Boston, was allowed to question Mr. Hamilton and to examine him professionally with a view to discovering whether he wa<\ or had been, mentally deranged, as in that case, he could not be held accountable for any act performed at such a time. This was an important part of the proceedings, and the result of the examination of the specialists was eagerly awaited. Their report, however, was postponed, until other witnesses should be examined. The letter which ha* been found under the president's door, was produced. "Is this your handwriting?" asked the justioe. UH looks like it, but I don't think it is." "What are your reasons for thinking so?" " I t e a s o n thus: If I did.not know my name at the date when that letter seems to have been written, then I have not signed it? As I did not know it, I think- the letter must have been written by some other person." Mr. Low was questioned: at this point. "Did the person who presented the note tell you hTs name was Hamilton^." -"No, sir; I think not. *I am sore he die* not apeak the name at all; but I reoagniied him myaelf." ^ • ^ y w csir Was. Mr. Hamtitoar his name as Hamilton. Now the question arose, could he give the name or acknowledge it unwittingly, in connection with a fraudulent deed contrary to his usual or moral character, or was he personated by a professional bank robber disguised to resemble him, who had possessed himselFof the bank papers and credentials, and who. in pursuance of his purposes and designs to represent the cashier, wrote the letter to the president? The last seemed more likely and reasonable; and in this case the man before them had been the dupe, not alone of circumstances, but of an evil-minded person who should bear the guilt and its weight of punishment. The bank commissioner, to the surprise of many present who had been led by the equivocal state of affairs to believe that actual proofs of fraud had been found to exist, stated that with the exception of the two altered notes, everything had been found, to be correct. "Did Mr. Hamilton's books satisfy you on other occasions?" "They did, invariably. Mr. Hamilton's accounts were always in good order." When Tony Osborn was called,'the manner of the young man was far less nonchalant than usnal. An excited glitter shone in his eyes, and he answered with clenched hand at bis side and nervous glances from time to time at Mr. Hamilton. His replies were unsatisfactory i> a, degree. He seemed fretted, am suspicious, and in some way Jria ^attitude affected people in the cocrt loom till they became fretted and sufcpicious, too, as if some occult influence was at work. When his exsmina2]>n .iWto" over be brightened with whaT seemed relief, s a d he quickly took -his seat matter." Mr. Hamilton was asked to state whether he could throw any light upon the matter. He replied that he could1 not, but that he did not believe he had been hypnotized. There was evident in Mr. Lamb's manner a design not to go beyond the exigencies of the occasion, evidently believing the affair too serkms'to come within the jurisdiction of a justice, as, indeed, the justice himself began to feel. He therefore confined himself to a questioning of a fellow-townsman of the cashier, Mr. Seavey, who had been heard to say that he did not believe Mr. Hamilton was .right in his mind yet, for he did not appear to know him when they— first- met-on -the street.— "Relate the circumstances of your meeting." "I see him a-comln' an' I knowed him the moment I sot eyes on him. Thinks I, I'll jest step up an' surprise him, and so I did an' hii' but my han'. I never let on, I never said pne single word; but jes" hil' out my han' an' kinder smiled. Wall, if you believe it, sir, he never knowed me." "Are you sure?" "Yes, sir; he looked beat, an' seemed to be tryin' to think who Twas— me. Bill Seavey—that knowed him like a book for years." J "What did he say?" "Why, he said sorter polite an* distant like, 'You have the advantage. Names an' faces are strange to me Another cure by Cuticura is told of by Mrs. Caroline Cable, of Waupaca, Wis., in the followi^j grateful letter: "My husband suffered agony salt rheum on his hands, and I had to keep them bandaged all the time. We tried everything we could get, but nothing helped him until he used Cuticura. One set of Cuticura Soap,-Ointment, and Pills cured him entirely, arid his hands have been? as smooth as possible ever since. I do hope this some other sufferer." leans oCJielpJn^ sometimes.' But jest as soon as I said 'Bill Seavey, your old foreman,' he remembered like a book. First off, though, a3 .1 say, he didn't know me from Adam. So I say he ain't jest right." If Mr. Hamilton did not recognize his old foreman, a man of most peculiar physiognomy, then, indeed, his memory was not thoroughly rehabilitated, and this agreed with his own statement that some portions of his past life were still quite vague to his mind. Justice Bailey's examination was lengthy and searching to a~ certain extent. His course became obvious after awhile. It was to ascertain Mr. Hamilton's standing as a cashier before his disappearance, his acts while away whether questionable or otherwise, and then to learn whether he had been accountable for his acts at the time. Strange and unusual circumstances seemed to surround the affair, an air of mystery clung to it from the manner of the brain specialist and Tony Osborn; also the hypnotic theory seemed to carry the matter farther beyond the depth of the worthy Justice. So, after examining the Seattle witnesses, who brought no new facts to light differing from those presented by Hamilton himself, Justice Bailey caused each witness to affix his name to his testimony and ordered him to appear at the next trial term of the Supreme court. Whether an indictment would be found against Hamilton for forgery and embezzlement remained to be seen. To make the business safe and sure, the worthy justice ordered him to recognize with the same sureties and attendance as hitherto at the next trial term of court, to take place- In April, the /otftth Tuesday in the mdnfh. (To be continued.). Origin of Common Words. "Spider" is a less attractive wore than "spinner," but it is really the Bame. "Spither," the earlier form of the word, stood for "splnther," meaning spinner—the disappearance of the "n" before the "th" being compensated for by the lengthening of the vowel, just as "tooth" really represents "tonth." There was once in.use another word for the creature, that was ugly enough in meaning—"attercop," which appears in Wycliffe's bible. It signifies "poison-bunch" and is still used in the north of England and in Antrim, Ireland, as an uncomplimentary term for a shrewish per- _sojn._JFrom "attercop," from a slmllar use of "cop" or "cob," a bunchT to mean a spider, comes "cobweb." An Eccentric Bequest The eccentric bequest is always with us, and It could be wished that the desires of testators were never more awkwardly recherche than those of the unmarried sister on condition that she allows her father to smoke all the cigars and wear all the fancy waistcoats he desires. It should be possible to construct upon the basis of this bequest a character sketch in outline of the old gentleman whose benefit is so sought. The taste for fancy waistcoats is of rare occurrence in those of advanced years. Macaulay always had it. It was his one care about custoine during an exceedingly Ill-dressed life. It does not seem, however, to be an infallible sign of great mental powers. WRONG SORT Perhaps Plain Old Meat, Potatoes and Bread may Be Against You for a Time. A change to the right kind of food can lift one from a sick bed. A lady in Welden, 111., says: "Last Spring I became bed-fast with severe stomach trouble accompanied by sick headache. I got worse and worse until I became so low I could scarcely retain any food at all, although I tried every kind. I had become completely discouraged, had given up all hope and thought I was doomed, to starve to death, till one day my husband trying to find something I could retain brought home some Grape-Nuts. "To my surprise the food sgreed with me, digested perfectly and without distress. I began to gain strength at once, my flesh (which hsd been flabby)- grew' firmer, my health improved in every way and every day, and in a very few. weeks I gained 20 pounds in weight I liked Grape-Nuts so well that for 4 months I ate no other food, and always felt as well satisfied after eating as if I had sat down to a fine banquet. "I had no return of the miserable sick stomach nor of the headaches, that I used to have when I ate other food. I am now a well woman, doing all my own work again, and feel that life Is worth living. "Grape-Nuts food has been a godsend to my family; it surely saved my life and my two little boys have thriven on it wonderfully." Name given by.

The two main pornta in the treatment of shyness, which Is the great cause of blushing, are, first, open-air exercise, and, second, the society of others. Open-air exercise is good for all morbid disorders, such as excessive shyness, while the social life makes for self-control and that savoir faire we all seek to attain; for the latter enables us to go through life without betraying awkwardness and timidity.

"Firedamp" and "afterdamp," words brought into terrible promln- , ence in many disasters in mines, preserve the older English sense of "damp"—vapor, and especially noxious vapor. Precisely where the word came from philology does not know, but the earliest existence of its use quoted by Dr. Murray's dictionary is Caxton's (1480)—"after the dragon shal come a goot and tber shal come out of his nostrel a domp that sh^l betoken honger and grete deth of peple." Bacon Is one of the writers of bis time who speak of the "damps" of mines. "Damp" gradually came to be applied to visible vapors, such as evening mists, and the transition to the sense of moiBture is obvious. But In "damping down" a furnace one finds") a relic of the verb "damp" in the-sense of "suffocateJ' "And i l l play Scout like Buffalo Dill and smash the counterfeiters' gang.''

The laws of England have never prevailed there and some of the Manx enactments are very curious. One iof the, earliest enjoined "all Scots to avoid the land with the next vessel that goeth into Scotland, upon pain of forfeitune of their goods and bodies to prison.'' Another enacted that "Irish women loitering and not working he commanded forth of this lele with as much convenient speed as may be" <3&6l). The first of'tbese laws was the result of a series of raids on the Manx coast <by a Galloway rover nam'ed^ MaCCulloch; It Is" said that it was at this, period that the Manx cusHonroriginntad of "eating the it before fthey sapped the broth," they. <phould be' deprived of the jsjpre substantial patt liy the' appearance at their doors of this Scot oh man and his crew. About ^hip, time the parish clerks' were order** vfo stand at the church doors at the-time of serviae and'whip and beat all the dogga." Dtrlng thsMAventeenth centvry a law made that "whosoever shall be * .d or detected to pull horse thyles ! be punished upon the wooden a of the parish, thereon to continue two hours, and to^be whipped naked from the waist upward." Manx deemsters—the high court judges—are still sworn, as they have been for hundreds of years, by the following curious oath: "By this book and the# contents thereof, and by the wonderful works that God hath miraculously wrought in the heaven above and in the earth beneath in six days and seven nights, I do swear that I will, without respect of favor or friendship, loss or gain, consanguinity or affinity, envy or malice, execute the laws of this isle Justly between party and party as indifferently as the herring backbone doth lie In the midst of the fish. So help me God and the contents of this book.** Every woman, widow or spinster In the Isle of Man, whether she be owner, occupier or even lodger, enjoys the , franchise for the Manx House of Keys elections. Every widow enjoys half of her husband's personal estate and has a life interest in his real estate, and she cannot be deprived of this by will. Her written consent must be obtained to all transfers and deeds affecting her husband's property. On the other hand, no married woman can legally own In her own right either money or property'In the Isle of Man; she can have no separate estate unless specially provided before marriage. fwrwplaint f f a Vulgarism. Says a writer in the London Chronicle: "A vulgarism—one which, like 'aggravate' for 'irritate,' has come into use by way of the kitchen stairs—is 'demean,' with a sense of derogation or abasement. It is to be seen in many a paper and even many a book and heard in many a speech. It is the second syllable that has misled the popular understanding, but the noun 'demeanor' should have saved the educated from their blunder with the verb. When thjs cook refuses to 'demean herself she is excusable, because 'demeanor' is not in her vocabulary."

The ball game in the forenoon was pulled of as advertised but the Y. M. C. was no match for the husky Anderson team and the game was a tame affair. The afternoon game was better the Anderson team defeating Stockbridge by a score of 11 to 6. Tne dinner was the usual big banquet aod several hundred were fed and still there was plenty left.

OPERA HOUSE \ SUNDAY, AUG. 2 0 Divine Worship and Sermon at The Huron river power scheme is assuming more definite form and the time is not far distant when the power will be utilized to furnish electric light for Wayne, Delray and perhaps Detroit. That the Huron was the source of the best of water power has long been known but it rested for the North American company to work out the plan and much has been said in this and other papers concerning their operations during the past year. It requires lots of money and time to work out this gigantic scheme but that it will be done seems a certainty and m the near future now. This syndicate is capitalized at $30, 000.000 and it is backing the scheme to dam the Huron at intervals between Lakeland and Gedde's and compel it to run the machinery for the manufacturing ng ooft eelleeccttrriicc ity which will be distributed to the industries that need it which may be situated within aiadius small enough to permit of such distribution economically from a central plant. The first link in the chain is forged and others are expected to follow soon. 10:30 .* lw$\ Cta&aea ata YaaitorV CVaaaat W.ftO Everybody Cordially Welcomed foung Mens and Boys Clubs The ball team met their first defeat in a game with Anderson last Thursday, Both teams played an excellent game but our boys were not in their usual good form and got side-tracked early in the game.

DEAR EDITOR: Herein I hand you $1.00 At a very early age he manifested great aptitude for learning and at the age of sixteen graduated with honor from the Ortonville Hi#h School, and later from the Brighton High School, that institution offering * more extended course of study, He was an ardent lover of mdsic and a singer of rare ability using this talent effectively in the Master's service. At the age of twenty he taught school near Oakley with great success, after which be beld a position in the Pontiac Asylum for some time, resigning his position to be with his parents who had moved to Newberry in tbe Upper Peninsula. There he taught at Lakefield, Carisbend and at Princeton, Marquette Co, as Principal for the past two years, occupying bis spare time in taking a Correspondence course in Electrical Engineering. He was an active and zealous worker in the church and Sunday school at the latter place and prominent in all musical and social gatherings. At the close of school he went to Sault Ste. Marie to visit his sister, Mrs. W. A. Cnffman and his mother, Mrs. A. Crane who was also visiting there, and then accepted a position with the Union Carbide Co. at that place. He had just been promoted to a place of trnst and responsibility when the sad accident occured which ended his mortal career,- when the promise of his youth was bright and fair, leaving a widowed mother, a sister and a young brother to mourn their loss. Wherever he went he made many friends and numerous and beautiful were the floral offerings laid upon the casket. Funeral services were held at Anderson, conducted by Rev. R. L. Cope and the beloyed lorm laid to rest in the Sprout cemetery. wnich ycu will kindly place to ny credit as subscription to your valuable paper, which I have not been Without for the last 20 years and it has behaved so well all the time that I have decided to adopt it.

HAPPENINGS D E S P I T E CONFESSIONS MURDERERS PLEAD "NOT GUILTY," LITTLE DETROIT GIRL DECAPITATED -BY STREET CAR. THE FREDERIC MURDER CASE AND ITS LATEST PHASE8. New Jersey is making a strenuous war on-mosquitoes, but there will be enough of them left, undoubtedly, to convey the idea. Being an inland country saves Switzerland a lot of trouble. She hasn't even been invited to take part in the Moroccan Conference. Col. Mann has bounced his managing editor. Evidently the colonel had -=^«a^on_iiLJmsp€£LJhat something was the matter somewhere. Unless the "Fads and Fancies" book contains at least one chapter on monkey dinners it cannot be considered a really representative work. Both Plead Not Guilty. Harry Parker and Harry Johnson, the two men charged with the murder of Joseph Moyer, the Detroit pawnbroker, were taken into the recorder's coTTft Salui day uwraiug-andawaigaedon a charge of murder, to which both pleaded "not guilty." Both men deny having made a confession of the murder to the police and Parker puts on a defiant air and seems to delight in the public gaze. His alrt of bragadocio is almost disgusting. There was some bickering over the appointment by the court of an attorney to defend the men, but the selection of Thomas O'Hara resulted. While Johnson is phlegmatic, Parker plays to the grand stand at every opportunity. "I must be a great drawing card," he said. "This is the first time in my life that I was shown so much attention- I am glad that the people want to see me. Pretty soon I am, going to sell tickets on the outside. I think I could make some money that way." Laughingly he returned to his cell and refused to discuss any other featu r e o f his case. The next move in the case will be to fix a"lay for ThT iriaL_.____. If we are to be given many such plays as "Alicesit-by-the-flre" and "All-of-a-sudden-Peggy" it will become necessary to star the hyphen. Most, of the land on earth having been apportioned, some of the powers are now beginning to quarrel over spheres of influence on the ocean. . Although a small nation, Holland bears more than its share of the white man's burden. A Dutch expedition has just killed: 260 natives of Celebes? Quite possibly it is a wise provision of nature that most millionaires are disinclined to -work. If they were not, we might be affected with billionaires. That Massachusetts letter carrier who has been in the service fifty years has probably delivered love letters enough to make a thousand cyclopedias. Col. Mann says they sent all over the world for hides to bind "Fads and Fancies." How foolish! Why not use the hides of the subscribers they skinned? E. ht. riarrlman sa>b "H:eie are too <1—d many reporters." He is enthusiastically supported in this opinion by Nicholas Romanoff and Samuel W. Fennypacker. Handicapped as they are by beinc called "the senators," how could anybody expect the members of the Washington baseball club to put any ginger ih'to their playing. Wizard Burbank says perfect men may be produced in the same way that he is producing superior fruit. Evidently the wizard has never tackled an unruly boy. It grows increasingly difficult to get Into society. At one time a whiff of gasoline was almost an open sesame, but now it is necessary to have been mutilated in an automobile collision. It was the woman who. dreamed that her husband had given her the goods for a new gown who waked to a realizing sense of what the poet meant by "the baseless fabric of this vision." Statistics show that only 15 per cent of the people who are run over by automobiles receive fatal injuries. Still, the distinction of having been run over by an automobile is hardly worth even that risk. It 1« something to the credit of Mr. William Waldorf Astor that he was the only man in the Vanderbilt and Astor families *hat declined to become a subscriber for the famous "Fads and Fancies" book.

Chitd Decapitated. Wishing to be just as brave as the other children in the neighborhood, Ruth Henderson, not quite 2 years old, lay down in an excavation between the street car rails at Myrtle street and Wabash avenue, Detroit, and when the first car came along she raised her head in time to be decapitated. When the car crew found her her body and curly head were several feet apart. The street car company has been repairing the tracks along Myrtle street. The children have dared each other to lie down in one of the excavations and allow a oar to pass over them. Several children did so and were uninjured, so Ruth toddled out on the tracks and lay down Tn~The hoie as sire~b:ad seen the boys do, and the motorman did not see her. She lay close to the ground, crouching to the very bottom of the two-foot excavation. The roar of the big car as it approached frightened her, and she raised her head when it was a few feet away", the horrible accident occurring an instant later. The Frederic Murder. Important information, implicating a married man, is alleged to have been given out by Mrs. Naomi Aldrich, the woman brought from, Frederic and placed in the Crawford county jail on suspicion of having poisoned her two little boys to get a meager $100, the amount of the insurance 'she had taken out on their lives. "I was in love with a West Branch man," Mrs. Aldrich Is alleged to have told the authoritics.—" Wn hnA planted f0 rim away, though no day was set. Out of our relatione there arose a necessity for his supplying me with medicine for a certain purpose. The boys got the medicine, but I didn't know about it at the time. The medicine was pretty bad stuff " Naomi #\ldrich is a product' of the northern iumber country. At the age of 17 she married a lumberman named Thompson by whom she had two children, George and William. Thompson died and the boys grew to be sturdy youngsters. Two years ago Mrs. Thompson married Edward Aidrich and a few months later Aldrich skipped out and has not been heard from since. The rumors about Frederic are that quarrels over the children were the cause of the domestic disruption. The woman and her boys were the objects of charity for a time, often having insufficient food Through -the failure of the prosecuting officers to comply with a provision of the state law requiring that any portion of a human body sent to the state chemist for analysis must be accompanied to their destination by an officer or a physician, the proposed analysis of the stomach of the older boy may be rendered valueless in so far as concerns the supplying of available evidence for the prosecution of the mother. It may be necessary to exhume the remains of the other boy and subject his stomach to analysis to get evidence needed. v MICHIGAN BREVITIES.

SIQN8 OF A Q t T T I N O TOGETHER . EMANATE FROM SATURDAY'S SESSION... DISCUSSION IS NOW GOING ON IN EARNEST; JAPAN'S CONCESSION. Saturday's history-makinff events lead to the inevitable conclusion that there will be peace between Japan and Russia. After four hours' consideration of the Russian counter-proposition —four hours which some historian ma y" Itrstry say solved—the problem which the far east faces—Japan receded from her position to the extent of consenting to discuss with the Russian envoys the conditions under which she will negotiate for peace. Japan thus avows herself open to reason. Stfto declared that it was not Japan's desire to dictate terms. The Japanese envoys made good the word by agreeing to meet their Russian confreres in a full and frank discussion of tho terms of. the Japanese note of last Thursday. It will not be an early peace. M. Witte said that there are twelve points upon which the envoys are divided, and that two days will be required to adequately discuss each of these points. There will be other matters to discuss—the envoys must move slowly, consulting their governments frequently—so that it is altogether likely that the conference will drag on CAMP WARNER. \ is ready for the exchange of signatures. — ' In the meantime, however, the war •' degs in 1he far east will be held in i Irash.

Unofficially Mr. Koroetovetz stated: "The conference did not get any further than the first clause today, and that was still under discussion when an adjournment was taken." Absolute secrecy is being preserved as to the nature of the twelve points that M. Witte says will have to be disposed of by the conference. That which was taken up today, however, is believed to have had reference to the evacuation of Manchuria, as it will be the policy of the conference to dispose of less important questions before the disposition of Saghallen is taken up and the question of indemnity Is taken up. The indemnity will be taken up last, and it will be upon this that the hard- ,rst fight will be waged. , Had'the session ended in a disagreement, )' was feared for nine long hours that it would, the en<J*of the effort to restore peace would have been reached and tomorrow would have witnessed two armies in Manchuria on the move.

It is admitted tbat not all the cases embraced in the daily official totals are actually yellow fever. Even at the emergency hospital, to which the worst cases go, numbers of cases have been finally diagnosed as malarial or typhoid fever.

There was laughter and much applause at this. "In these troubles we call labor troubles," said he; "If you are right I will stand by you; but I want to tell you that if you affe wrong I will not stand by you." He warned the miners that if they were unfair in trying to enforce their demands they would not have his sympathy, and when he made it plain he was for the principle that every man had the right of liberty to work as ho pleased, and tbat those without the unions should not be hnrmed by those within it, even this radical sentiment was warmly applauded. There was no attempt to hide tho fact that the president had come as much, on account of the miners' union as for the temperance society.

It Is not a very hard climb to the signal station on the sumimt of Gibraltar," writes a traveler. "The height la no more than 1,350 feet. I visited the station with a friend on a fine November day. The P*th zigzags up the precipitous western face of the mighty rock; now and again we passed a sentry and had to show our passport. Once we had gained the summit we felt ourselves more than amply repaid. Whichever way one tu/na the views are truly superb. Westward, across the bay of Gibraltar, with its magnificent setting of hill and mountain, lay the extreme south of beautiful. Andalusia. North and east stretched Malaga and Granada, with the splendid heights of the Sierra Nevada in the far distance. Eastward rolled the blue Mediterranean; the white canvas of a sailing bark showed right beneath us, and steamships plied, like gigantic water The enthusiasm brine'defeated-can— beetles^ pushing steadily pn thtfcr are supposed by some to be clear eyi course. Southward, close at hand, the nearest point no more than about fifteen miles distant, .the wild land of Morocco met our gaze, rugged chains of mountains corrugating its surface; while far away, in dimmest distance, rose a blue range, which was pointed out to us as the mighty Atlas itself. It was a fine, clear day, and the panorama, whichever way we looked, was unspeakably grand. It teemed thai one could never tire of feasting one's eyes on so sublime and so historic a prospect. "No trees exist, but a good deal of bush and shrub clothes the parched surface. There still lingers about the upper portion of the rock the last remnant of the troops of Barbery apes, which once roamed freely about Gibraltar. No more than half a dozen now exist and modern fortifications and other necessary works are, I fear, making Gibraltar much too busy a place to shelter these shy creatures. Still, it Is just poslble that this feeble remnant of the only wild apes known to Europe may yet survive and in* crease. At one time, from much per* secution, ihey had sunk to three Individuals; yet in 1893 the numbers had risen again to at least thirty. "These apes are baboonlike creatures exactly similar to the tailless Barbary ape found in Morocco. They dences of the fact that Africa axrd Spain were once joined. It is by no means certain that they are indigenous to the rock. A large number were introduced in 1740 and in 1863 fresh blood was again imported. These apes have been known to scientists for long ages and Galen, the renowned Roman physician, in his day studied and even dissected them."

Life Insurance Companies will not insure a man suffering from heart trouble. The reason is obvious. This is a serious matter to the husband or father who Is solicitous for the future of his dear ones. Often the heart trouble is caused by an unexpected thing and can be corrected if taken In time and properly treated. A man in Colorado writes: "I was a great coffee drinker for many years, and was not aware of the Injurious effects of the habit till I became a practical invalid, suffering from heart trouble, indigestion and nervousness to an extent that made me wretchedly miserable myself and a nuisance to those who witnessed my sufferings. '"I continued to drink Coffee, however, not suspecting that it was the cause of my ill health, till, on applying for life insurance I was rejected on account of the trouble with my heart. Then I became alarmed. I found that leaving off coffee helped me quickly, so I quit it altogether and having been attracted by the advertisements of Postum Food Coffee I began Its use. "The change in my condition was remarkable, and It was not long till I was completely cured. All my ailments vanished. My digestion was completely restored, my nervousness disappeared, and, most important of all, my heart steadied down and became normal, and on a second examination I was accepted by the life insurance Co. Quitting Coffee and using Postum worked the cure." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. There's a reason, and it is explained In the litUe book, "The Road to WelJville," la each pkg.

From one end of the country to the other Americans are waging determined war upon graft. Such an extensive sweep of public indignation was never .known before. The most ardent advocate of good government and official honesty is astounded as well as pleased by the extent and fury of the antigraft cyclone now raging. United States attorney general Moody is looking up the United States criminal code of laws with a view of having them revised by congress, but it seems to the ordiuary observer that what we need more than a revision of the laws is a set of official that will inforce some of the laws we already have, as there seems to be a number of cases for somebody to prosecute about now.—Fowlerville Review. ing yisitcd Miss Mabel Sigler. All this talk aoout Russia preferring to continue the war rather than submit to the dishonorable peace may be taken with several grains of allowance.

I t is too late for Russia to do anything but subscribe to Japan's terms of peace, costly and degrading as they seem to be.

B A N N E R S A L V f tlt« most hMltaf Mlv* In fh« worM. national government Polygamy, which is but one phase of mormaniam and the fowlest blot upon the honor of women and the purity of a faith, that was ever injected into the religion of a civilized country is today a living ise ae among ^he morman people. Some of you wonder if this is true. The highest example which can be set before the church is that of Joseph F. Smith, president of the Morman church and highest priest in an infallible hierarchy, who, by his own testimony is living in the habit and repute of marriage with five women and has had children born to each since the manifesto in 1890. W h y then, you say, do not the intelligent women of Utah refuse to submit to this unspeakable degradation? Why do not the fine young women and the brilliant young men of the state stamp out the relic of barbarism? I will tell you. First, because polygamy is in their blood. Second, because polygamy is—their religion. Third, because to condem polygamy would be to cast reflections, of the most horrible character, upon the virtue of the mothers and the honor cf the fathers. A beautiful Morman &irl, attractive, well educated and fond of pleasure was the daughter of the first wife of a man who had two wives. During a confidential conversation with her she was asked if frankly and'truly in her inmost soul, she was not glad tha t it was not required of her that she be a plural wife. She thoughtfully answered "no, marriage to her would seem a one-sided affair with but one wife, she could ,not imagine the happiness of childhood or the full enjoyment of girl or womanhood without the companionship or love of the children of the other wife of her family. Her one concession was that she would a little prefer to be the first wife. Continued Next W e e k . The Loiter Evil. "I don't see wby you asked Mr. Boor tft alng," said the popular girl's slater.

An uucestor— a cavalier and a stanch royalist—came to America in Cromwell's time, and his grandson was a noted Tory during the Uevo'ulion. Some years ago I visited Loudon and sent my <rard to the present earl, Who invited me to visit Etchwoth house, the family seat. We arrived there In time for dinner and spent a part of tHe evening examining the house and many heirlooms it contained. This finished, we sat by the great fireplace, built centuries ago, and my host told me stories and legends of the family. I went to my room with my head full of visions of different generations passing and repassing as in a panorama. The house bad never been changed into a modern abode, and my only light was a candle. While undressing I noticed a portrait hanging on the wall whose white wig, high collared red coat, with large buttons, and ruffled shirt bosom marked the original for the period of George III. I noticed him especially for tho benevolent expression of his face, and since he bore a strong family resemblance I did not doubt that he was one of the earl's and my own ancestors. Placing the candle on a table beside the bed-the candlestick, • of heavy silver, had lighted people to bed 200 or more years before—I put. the extinguisher over it, shut my eyes and went to sleep. I soon awoke with one of those indescribable sensations, the only definite thing about which Is a certainty of some cause for wakefulness.

There were the features of benevolence and malevolence, the one looking through the other, though the former seemed to have mastered the latter. I could not bear the thought.of remaining under the gaze of that horrible face. I dared not put out the candle, for I dreaded the darkness more than the light; so, getting out of bed, I placed the candle on a dresser where It would not shine so fully on the picture. I While returning to my bed I noticed j that the features of the evil face were ' gradually giving place to the good face, I and before I lay down the good had j completely annihilated the evil. j . An hour passed, during which I occasionally cast furtive glances at the portrait, dreading the return of the fiend face. But there was no return, and at last I fell asleep. I awoke again, however, in a few hours. The candle was ; flickering In the socket. Being thirsty, I got up to get a drink of water before the .candle should go out. Turning to go back to bed, I cast a glance at the portrait. ThSre again was the face T dreaded. '. : I must have started and caused a disturbance of the air sufficient to extinguish the flickering candle. At any rate It flared and went out, and I dashed for the bed, climbed Into It and biv ried my head under the clothes, my heart beating like a triphammer. An- I other hour of wakefulness, then slum- 1 ber relieved me of the dreadful feeling that that evil face was looking at me. i In the morning my chamber door was thrown open, and my host entered to announce that breakfast was vjraltlng, and we had scarcely time to eat it and reach our train to Londfen. My first thought was of the portrait I looked at It, and there, as I had seen the night bwfore, were the two faces In one. ! "£xplafo thirt," I said, pointing. The ea*l iooked at it, surprised. "I beg a thousand pardons," he said, "for putting you In a room with that picture. When last here I gave an order for Its removal, but I see the order ha* not been obeyed. Did It trouble you In the night?" "Trouble me? I should say It did!" "Come, get jour clothes on, and at breakfast I'll t«?ll you about It." This Is th* story of the picture: When the Duke of Monmouth, Charles II.'s natural son, returned from t i e Netherlands to dispute the throne with .Tames II. the Earl of Etchwoth was drop in the plot.

H A T C H Author « - i £ i '<> of " T h e Bank Tragedy" Copyright, i s e t , by fcne.and Mhnpnrd CHAPTER XI—CJ*o ntinued. Several matters conaacted with the affair were touched upon, all of which interested Mr. Hamilton deeply. In no. way did he ende*yor to evade or conceal—or so it seemed—sjny event or circumstance. Indeed, it was ft wonder, they all thought, that his equanimity was so little disturbed by what must have been a trying ordeal. He looked in better health than when he went away, they thought—younger and brighter, and more alert, and they told him so.* "I think so myself," he said. "It must have been my relief from wearing thought and work. When I went away my nerves were in a shaky condition. At times I could not hold my hand still. Now see," and he stretched out a firm, muscular hand that compelled their admiration. A handsome, old-fashioned ring adorned it that they had occasionally seen before he went away. "May I see it?" asked Mr. Taylor. A slight hesitation manifested itself for a moment. Then he took it off and handed it to him. "In trust," was marked legibly on the inside. "A fine, old-fashioned ring." said Mr. Taylor, handing it back. "I think you told me once It was your mother's ring." "Did I?" said he. "I don't recollect." At that point Justice Bailey and petective Bruce arrived, and in the presassembled bank officers Waya of Criminals. Prof. Ferriani declares that 75 per •cent of criminals perpetrate crimes in ignorance of their consequences. Many criminals, he also says not only boast of their crimes, but exaggerate them, even in court, and, to their own detriment, from a perverse -.ort of vanity. *h* •arftrrftnt-jBi^sL qprvpri for the grreat_ of Vane Hamilton, on the charge of forgery and embezzlement. "Now," said Hamilton, seating himself, "I want this examination over as soon as possible. 1 suppose I could call for one before nightfall If I chose." "You could," said Justice Bailey, "but I should advise you to waive examination for the present, until news arrives from Seattle. __Doubtless_you will find no difficulty in securing bail for your appearance." "And were they?" "No; they were in Nebraska." "Are you sure?" asked the president. "Yes. They had been at their old business, Ashley and his friends, and had started a deposit bank. It was in Goodwill,-a smart little village of mushroom growth. They forged the charter, for aught I know. But, any way, the bank burst up in a few weeks; for the three, Ashley, Scoville, and Brown, presumably gave the little town the slip and took the deposits with them. The others got into hiding, as they always manage to do; but ^Ashley got nabbed." "When was that?" "As near as I can learn, the very day Hamilton disappeared." "As long ago as that?" "Yes; you see, the excitement, though Intense in Goodwill, was hushed up purposely to aid the arrest. Then after he was arrested Ashley was found to be insane and sent to an asylum in Nebraska, from which he escaped and was drowned. I thought at one time that this Ashley was certainly Hamilton." v "Did they arrest him in the place where Hamilton disappeared?" "Within a few miles of Portland, and that is near enough. I learned about the Nebraska affair,six weeks ago. I was sick, and I sent word to Swan. He came to Grovedale, I believe." _^Yes." ; - "That was his own notion, r i i d n t send~hlmr Got; "sume—notton—about—aworkman up here." "Yes; Primus Edes. Mrs. Fry (he boards at her house) told me she sent him a letter she found In Edes' pocket. Did you see it?" "Yes, it was from his wife apparently, nothing of importance." "Was her name or address given?" "No address, I believe, but a name like Rose or Violet—some flower name. I don't recollect-it.

But in any case I wish to be placed under surveillance until the examination takes place. I will not otherwise accept bail." As may be supposed, Mr. Brace was greatly interested in the proceedings, having been engaged to ferret out the mystery which thus far had eluded his graap. Now to find his man ready and waiting, so to speak, for arrest and examination, all in his own house and through his own will, put a different phase upon the matter than he had hitherto conceived possible. He listened, therefore, with great Interest to the accounts of Hamilton's alleged loss of personal identity as he walked to the hotel with Mr. Hartwell, and, to the Matter's surprise, was rather inclined to give it credence. "Why," said Mr. Hartwell, "I expected to hear a very different statement, from the tone of one or two of your letters. Indeed, I purposely suspended my own judgment until I could see and talk with you." "Well, the aspect of affairs has changed. The man. is dead." "Ashley?" "Yes, without a doubt. Come in, if you have time, and I will' tell you about it," said Bruce. For, answer, the president followed him into the hotel and to Brufce's private room. "You see>M said Bruce,< as Roon as they were seated, "I lost all track of him for a lon$ time. Indeed, he.aeemed to have diaappeare4 about the time Hamilton did, and that was one thing that made me think that they might be one and the same person—that and because of the green-haired woman. I Edes denied having ever been married." "Is that so?" "Yes; but as I told Swan, it was of no earthly consequence to us, for my man was dead and buried, and so ended the Ashley matter. I went to the jail where he was first taken, asd saw the entry, and a description of the prisoner. I also saw the entry at the asylum," "How did they tally with the appearance of Ashley?" "W^ll, that's the strangest part about it," and Bruce hesitated a moment. "How so?" "At the jail he was entered as lighthaired, and at the asylum as dark." "But disguises of that sort would be nothing, I suppose, for a man like Ashley, would it?" "Why, yes. Just consider a moment. If it had been the other way, entered the first time dark and next light, it would imply simply colored hair, of course, and it would come out. the natural color. But to turp from ligM to dark without the aid of dye, that .is impossible, for, of course, there cculd have been none in his cell." "Then what do you think?" "I think there must have been a mistake. I think he must have had dark brown hair when he was arrested, but by mistake he was entered as light- ^haired." "Any visitors to see the prisoner?" ask*tt the president. ..^,3 "He had no .vi*ttpr8' Tl#' man's ^ i f e eaxne to se».bira.' Trig.jfl&r;said the woman acted strangely when she aaw%im.

I believe you said she had." "Yes, she had green hair, or as near that color as any." "When he came to trial he was found to be insane, you said?" "Yes; and that explains, perhaps, the prisoner's denial. He was doubtless insane then. Well, he was Bent to the asylum to be treated, and he escaped in a few weeks and was drowned." "Is there no possibility of mistake about that part of the matter?" "None whatever.

He was drowned not three miles distant." "Did you talk with those who identified the body?" "I did. I questioned closely into the matter. There is no doubt whatever that the man was drowned." "No doubt it is as you say," said the bank president. "Well, that removes Ashley. What do you think about Hamilton's story?" "I am inclined to believe It. This Ashley affair was a ^false light, and blinded me for a time. It isat to be wondered at, perhaps, when the greenhaired ^woman's connection with the matter is taken Into account. No doubt she was on her way to Canada to join Ashley when she sa^i Hamilton, and thought she recognized her husband. ~His many dJagutafift proh? nhiy miqi£»j >iqr for a time. So she followed him for a short distance, and then, learning her mistake, did not go through to Portland, but took a train north of Mechanic Falls." "Yes," said Mr. Hartwell, thoughtfully, "that would explain the matter, and also how you were misled. But it is the most astounding thing about Hamilton's loss of memory! I could not believe It at first, but the idea -seems more feasible asJLthink about it longer. We supposed him to be so thoroughly reliable in every way, It seemed impossible that he could be a rogue after all." "If he could only remember what he did while he was away," said Bruce, thoughtfully, "the mystery would clarify, but I see he fears he may have done strange things/' "Mr. Bruce," said the president, suddenly, "Tony Osborn had a curious notion in regard to this matter," and he mentioned the hypnotic idea as set forth by Tony, and related the strange performances of Dr. Major, which he himself remembered witnessing. The detective was much interested in all new or unusual workings of science. "Well," said he, after the subject had been discussed at some length, "Osborn may be right, and it might have been Ashley who received the money and altered the notes;.but he is dead, and, in any event, it would be difficult to have proved the matter. If I were allowed to state my opinion of what Is right, I should say, let Ham- •ilt^ri r^pay tho loss sustained by the bank; for this hypnotic theory, though very ingenious and not too unreasonable for the belief of men like myself, would only cover the affair with ridicule, and Imbue the minds of the poor people with a feeling of insecurity." "I think you are right, Mr. Bruce,'* said the president. "At least, that is the way the matter looks now. Of course the examination may bring out new facts, so it is as well not to make up oor minds to any great extent.'* "Tt is an irksome condition of things for Hamilton/' said Bruce, "but unavoidable." "Yes; but unavoidable, as you say. I must confess, he bears it with remarkable equanimity. Looks like Innocence, hey?" "Yes; if it's a spurious article It is well imitated. By Jove," said the detective emphatically, "it is the most mysterious case I ever was concerned InV' (To be continued.) ^ Throughout ttt%; Hiro-Talea. - T S > S ^ » ^ V W I W W L >ejUjjre of KB**- a?*..folk-lore if l t s ^ £ u j h ) y human character, sajrs a wffTW'in Cat tnt#raVtk> aar Quarterly^ Jn a strict teas* <tf the term the 4u«ii4«sV£skimo tradition is ^not. mythology but h£ro tales, which, reftect with remarkable faithful* p n ^ h * iocial condition 'and religious beliefs of the people.

The first known mention of the toothpick was made during the first century of the Christian era—and BO far as may now be judged, it very much resembled the 'little* wooden instrument that modern politeness declares should never be used in public. There _were also dentifrices—an "Arabian produce—brightener of the mouth," for example, which was evidently confined to comparatively few users. -Beautiful Poems With Lang Hair. The following remarks on Tennyson were recently handed in on an examination paper by a schoolboy in an English literary class: "Lord Alfred Tennyson was a celebrated poet, and he wrote a lot of beautiful pomes with long hair.

Secretary Taft outlined the Philippine policy of the administration at a dinner tendered by Manila Filipinos. There has been.much unrest In the islands of late owing to fear that the McKlnley policy was being deviated from, Secretary Taft assured his ai* ditors that the great majority of Americans, whose exponent President Roosevelt is, "believe that It Is the duty of the United States to prepare the Filipinos for self-government- This will require a generation and probably longer. The president desires me to say to the Filipinos that he feels charged with tbe duty of maintaining the sovereignty of the United Statqe here as an instrument of the gradual education and elevation of the whole Filipino, people to a self-governing community." The secretary affirmed that a popular assembly would be formed, if no Insurrection existed, in April, 1907. The administration's policy, he said, was the Philippines for the Filipinos. If the American officers were not in sympathy with this policy and with the natives they would be recalled. _Root Quits Corporations. Secretary of State Elihu Root has severed all connections with financial institutions of which he was a director. These include the Morton Trust Co., the National Bank of Commerce, the Continental Fire Insurance Co., the Title Guaranty & Trust Co. and several other corporations. This action was taken !n order that he might assume the secretaryship of etate without being in any way allied with corporate interests. Mr. Root has been director of some of these institutions for a number of years, including the period when he was secretary of war. His reason for differentiating between the two positions in the cabinet, so far as they affected bis personal business affairs, is not revealed. _ Garibaldi's Dying Fancy. A curious fancy possessed Garibaldi Just before he died. Two birds came flying to his window and alighted on the sill, and to Garibaldi they appeared like the spirits of his two dead children. "They have come," he said, tenderly, "to see their father die. Be kind to them and feed them when I'm gone." Thomas Carlyle's death was not easier or happier than his life, and at the last he remarked, pathetically: "Is it not strange that these people should have chosen the very oldest man in all Britain to make suffer in U is way?" He Was innocent. Arrested, tried and convicted in Macon, Ga., for a murder he never oomliltted; CKaHes^HenTy^Franktin _on tht> «r^ffnrf] yjth thft noose around his neck. A 20-minute reprieve secured" a commutation to a life sentence, and for more than 21 years he toiled in convict stripes, only the death-bed confession of the true murderer, Fred Knight, securing a release from a life worse than death. Bowed with age and the effects of many years of arduous toil, the man who suffered for another's crime came out of the convict camp like a prisoner -from the Bastile to nnd_his_jwife dead, his only child, whom he had never seen, married and a mother, bereft of friends aud home, ill and a pauper. Morgan Interested. J. Pierpont Morgan called on President Roosevelt at Oyster Bay Monday. The conference involved the practically peremptory order of China that the present owners sell the Hankow railroad to the Chinese government. J. P, Morgan owns a controlling interest The question is said to be assuming an important international phase. The president himself is authority for the statement that the conference related practically entirely to the affairs of the Hankow railroad. Incidentally, and as relating in a measure to the railroad interests held by Americans in China, the pending peace negotiations formed a topic of consideration by the president and Mr. Morgan. The State of Love. J,t Is all a mistake that you can't understand girls, because it is very simple. For example, like this: If she thinks you love her enough to die for her, she won't be satisfied until you do, and she won't be sorry until she is satisfied, as she hates to .see you buried when she loves yon, bwt it can't be helped; and if she think* you must give her a black eye to show her that you are in. love with her, then you must.—Exchange. ?# V Durn Fool Hen.

He remained at this stature until was thirty years of age, after which a curious exception to the Liwa of growth took place, since Jeffrey rapidly grew to be three feet nine inches in height, whereas most men do not grow a quarter of an inch/after the age of thirty.

Tbe item in question read: A law enacted by the state legislature at its recent session provides that all boys who are pupils of the public school shall be excluded from tobacco stores and billiard rooms. That tbe above items were written as a rub on the billiard table in the club rooms is sheer nonsense. The law refers strictly to public tables while tbe ones in this village are private or club affairs. Tbe fact is that until now the DISPATCH bas never mentioned tbe fact that there was a billiard table in tbe club rooms, as it has always been called "the new table game" when mentioned by oUr club reporter and we did not presume to change bis copy. —— 11 Wt DAJ8IILS, Jj# <«NJCBAL AUOTIONMB.

Somebody who says he knows asserts that whiskers grow faster in hot weather than they do in cold. The man who has to shave himself is sure of it. The New York man who dropped dead just as a physician pronounced him physically sound showed small regard for the exactness of medical science. The people who suffer from hay fever have the consolation of thinking that during the hay fever season they are never without a good excuse for a vacation. _Jf the United States could drive yellow fever out of Havana, why can't she drive it out of New Orleans? There seems to be sanitation work for Gen. Wood down there. That story of a roan's being kept twenty-two years in the Joliet penitentiary because the authorities forgot to hang him was not true. Otherwise it was a perfect gem. The importation of diamonds into the United States has increased 50 per cent during the last ten years. And still we seem to have plenty of money left to buy automobiles with. It's the*hight of bad form in Japan for a wife to express any opinion contrary to her husband's. What chance had Russia against men who have their wives bluffed like that? A California man claims that he can electrify eggs so that people who eat them will live forever, but it isn't likely'that he will succeed in becoming anywhere near as notorious as Sootty is. Algernon Charles Swinburne must feel that his reputation is pretty well established, as he wouid never have ventured to publish that novel written in the bright days of his early manhood. That Montana man who has found a way. to raise 30,000 bushels of potatoes to the acre has a fortune if he can only insure a proportionate increase of the potato-consuming population. Correspondents of the New York Sun are carrying on a discussion as to who was the father of the United •States navy, but there is no question that Admiral Dewey Is its most distinguished son. The bloody and cruel murder of Pawnbroker Mover, in Detroit, between 6 and 7 o'clock on Friday, the 28th of July, and the escape of the murderers with the' valuable Jewelry and diamonds, for which they had committed the crime, seemed to baffle all attempts of the police to take •Ihamr-OT W d * y - t * m e the B t a r t U a g - l ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ s o n o i ^ news that two men had been arrested J S P ^ * ? ™ * ? " . * ff. in Cleveland who answered the description of the supposed murderers, »nd who had in their possession a large amount of diamonds, watches, ate, which bore the tags of the murdered pawnbroker. The Cleveland police are reticent about the source of :heir Information that the two men were in that city, but that they had i "straight tip'' seems very evident It is said the "tip" came from a pawnbroker with whom one of the men :rled to pawn some jewelry. They gave their names as Harry Parker and Harry Johnson. They had just $22.16 in their possession and both were attired In natty black suits, tresh from the store. About $3,500 was the value put on Moyer"s goods. The valuation of the property found in the possession of the suspects will reach that amount, it. is thought, whpn inventoried at the nr.jce_s .flxei. on the stolen property. theT hp^r opof^s' ^tpo f*a™st e»n» rtch et htnetr ritbhleev chriamvee r>n the two men who can be traced as leaving Detroit for Cleveland on the D. & C. boat the night the crime was committed; that they visited Buffalo and returned to Cleveland, where they were arrested and many other evidences. From the boy who saw the murderers escape over Moyer's rear fence, from the Ohio men, lately located by the police, who also say they saw this escape; from the boat official who can identify Johnson and Parker who left Detroit on the Cleveland boat a few hours after the murder, and from other more or less trustworthy sources will come the identifications which may fasten the crime upon the two Cleveland suspects. Two women pickpockets, known to the Detroit police and the Cleveland department, are said to have made the trip to Cleveland with Parker and Johnson, and to have talked with the men on the boat, cannot be found at present, but when picked up are expected to be used in identification of the suspects. It is thought they were working partners of the crboks The manner of the escape of the two men, after they emerged from the alley and ran out on Randolph street, where they disappeared from the view of those who saw them leave the alley, will probably never be revealed. In spite of this cordon of officers, the men, unnoticed, walked aboard the D. & C. steamer and went down the river even while the officers were searching every conceivable spot for brought into the station. The manner in which the men so boldly walked down to the dock and boarded the steamer bears out the supposition that they had all arrangements made whereby they could discard their bloody clothing and don other, garments, effectually hiding all evidence of the struggle they had had with the unfortunate Moyer, when he was struck down. Stolen Papers Returned. Lieutenant of Detectives Lally of Detroit has been the recipient of a mysterious package, the contents of which proved to be a number of checks, notes and otnet important papers, aggregating in value oyer $25,- 000. It appears that a few weeks ago the office of the Crystal Salt company at St, Clair, Mich., was entered by burglars wfio blew the saf£ Very little cash was stolen, but all of the firm's papers, books, checks, notes, etc., were carried away. Weeks have passed since and the firm had already given up hope of the recovery of their property. Now the burglars, evidently realizing that they cannot dispose of their booty, have returned it to Mr. Lally, who sent it back to t&e firm in St. Clair.

Secretary Shumway, of the state board of health, Is firmly convinced that the sanitary conditions at Alma college were in. no wise responsible for the outbreak of typhoid fever which resulted from a banquet served at the Institution in Jane.

President Roosevelt, on behalf of the United States and its people, extended formal greetings to the rep* resentatives of Russia and Japan, introduced the plenipotentiaries to one another and entertained them at an elaborate luncheon, at which Russians and Japanese fraternized with one another as comrades rather than as enemies. The occasion was impressive. It was attended not by pomp and ceremony, but by a simplicity and frankness characteristic of the president and the pecpls of America. Due honor was paid the distinguished guests of the president and of the country and they were received with all the dignity to which their exalted rank entitled them.

It was a notable scene as the diminu tive Baron Komura shook hands with the giant Witte at the instance of the president of the United States. The greetings of the members of the two special missions were distinctly formal, but not the slightest suggestion of enmity was shown on either side. Although the luncheon was served with the other guests standing, the president escorted the four envoys to chairs in one corner of the saloon and In half a minute, through tact and delicacy, the whole party was engaged In animated conversation over their dishes. The conversation generally was in French, as Mr. Witte speaks very little English, Baron Rosen and Baron Komura chatted as if they had been lifelong friends and Minlstei Takahira, at no time particularly communicative, entered into the conver sation with zest and interest. During the luncheon President Roosevelt proposed a notable toast:, "I propose a toast to vhlch there wilf be no answer and to which I ask you to drink in silence, standing. 1 drink to the welfare and prosperity of the sovereigns and peoples of the' two great—nationo—whoso representative»s have met one another on this ship. It is my most earnest hope and prayer in the interest of not only these two great powers, but of all mankind, that a JUKI and lasting peace may speedily be concluded between them." There was no mistaking the earnestness and sincerity of the president's speech. Every one in the little group, even those who did not understand the language he epoke, was deeply impressed, not alone with the momentousneBs of the occasion^ but each word seemed to impress more thoroughly upon each mind the fact that they had a great duty to perform and that this man was pointing the way. With this sentiment the president left them. It was a scene that will never be forgotten by those who wlr nessed it. On one side the huge Rus sian, M. Witte, and on the other side Baron Komura.i the diminutive, both so typical of the country they repre sent. For just a second the eyes of these two great men left those or t««- man who was speaking and sought each other's.

The light resulting from the ignition of acetylene is the nearest approach to sunlight known.

Thackeray once saw Napoleon on the island of St. Helena.

'That is he,' said the black man; 'that is Bonaparte. He eats three sheep every day, and all the little children he can lay hands on.' " That, black serving man was not the only person of the time to believe the story which he told. Soldiers Escort Mails., In some parts of the Sahara desert and in wild and little frequented parts of Asia, where outlaws and brigands abound, the governments send an escort of soldiers with the mail carriers bearing registered packages. In a vast number of cases the cost of the escort is greatly in excess of the value of the package to be delivered, and it would be ruinous to the recipient were he obliged to bear the expense of the delivery. The government, however, relieves the citizen of this expense.—Washington Star. 8ound as a Dollar. W* Monticello, Minn., Aug. 7th.—Mr. J. W.

Y., dispatch: A Wabash passenger train was derailed three miles west of Buffalo. Five coaches were turned over. Seven passengers "•»rp ininred. none of them seriously. f One of the most remarkable of all the mental processes is memory. How are sight pictures a n * sound picture* and other imnrosslonf stored in the mind, and how are we able to recall them? Here, again, we are in the presence of a wonderful miracle, and at best we can, only seek to make clear the fact by illustration and comparison/ There are certain bodies possessed of a property known as phosphorescence. After having been exposed to daylight for a time, these bodies give off light In the dark. They store up certain portions of the sunbeam, and give them off again. This is a sort of a physical memory. These phosphorescent bodies simply continue in the dark that which they do in the sunlight. In some way the impressions made throug hthe eye, ear and other senses induce such actions and changes in the nerve cells which are connected with these organs that under the right sort of stimulus the same action may be reproduced, and brought within the range of Consciousness;—This roproductlon of past impressions is secured through the connection of that porttion of the brain which is the seat of consciousness with other portions in which impressions are stored by means of the delicate nerve branches previously described. The numerous connections of these nerve fibers bring them in direct or indirect association with all the different parts of the brain. In trying to remember, one often is conscious of an effort, and the brain may he very much wearied; la a long-continued effort to recall impressions which have been partially effaced. The mental effort consists in energizing the fibers so as to make them project forward their delicate endings, thus making numerous contacts, perhaps millions, with different calls, until by and by the particular cell or group of cells in wtlcn the desired word or other impression was made is recognized. When one is weary, it Is often difficult, sometimes impossible, to recall names or data of various sorts which may be entirely familiar. This is because of the impossibility of energizing the nerve cells sufficiently to make the desired contacts. Anything which benumbs the nerves, as alcohol, tobacco, tea, coffee, opium, may have the effect to benumb the nervous sensibility and lessen nervous energy, and thus operate deleteriously upon memory. Memory, however, Is perhaps most seriously injured by loss of sleep, wherebv- JH-atn enorgry becomes ftihausted. Sometimes the memory may be for the time being almost entirely effaced by long-continued loss of sleep. Depreciation of memory in old age is one of the first indications of failing mental power. It Is interesting to note, however, that the memory of events which happened in early life are often remembered, while others of recent occurrence quickly pass from the mind. TV * How He Became Liveryman "How'd I come to go into the livery business? Why," said the genial and opulent livery stable proprietor, as he rolled the big black cigar to a slightly -^iffer^Bt-asgle-betwe^iJ^iL^et^h, ^\t was kind o' funny. - "You «ee, I had a largo family, all girls, nice girls, all of them, and naturally they all had a good deal of company, and they used to go a good deal, and to a good many places they went to they had to have carriages; and my carriage bill was something frightful, for me. "I was doing a fair sort of a business, very fair, in fact, but I couldn't by any means afford to keep a carriage myself, and every month that carriage bill for my daughters used to bite a frightful hole into my income. And finally that Set me to thinking. "I'm not the only man in the world, I says to myself, with a bunch of fine daughters. The world is full of fine daughters, I says to myself, belonging to fine families that want 'em to make as good a show as anybody and all hiring carriages for 'em. "Why shouldn't i^make, myself, the profit on the business that my daughters would bring to a stable, a pretty fair sort of a business in itself, or at least a sure starter, and do business for other people's daughters, too? "That's all there was to it. I was certafir-of some-busteeee and I waa= willing to take a chance on the rest. "And PTprythlng went all right. My daughters gave me all their patronage, and they used more carriages now than they ever had before—they said they wanted to see their father do well, and I got my full share of the patronage of other people's daughters, and the volume of It was great. "In the course of tftatt my daughters all married and they all 4W well; very comfortably, to say the least, i w y one of them now keeps a carriage ef her own, and keeps it in my stable; and so the girls, nice girls, every eat, that once cost me so much, though t never begrudged 'em a cent of it, now send me money, every one. "Their business alone is something tidy, but they are really only a few of many profitable customers, and I have never regretted taking up the livery business. "But it was sort of funny, now, how I came to go into it, wasn't it?" PEACE ENVOYS. THE RUSSIAN HIGH GUNS VISIT THE PRESIDENT. Serglus -Wltte and Baron Rosen, Russian envoys to the peace comerence, whose powers are so great that they could end the war in twenty-four hour3, were guests Friday of the president and Mrs. Roosevelt at Sagamore Hill. They arrived in Oyster Bay over the Long Island railroad. They were unaccompanied by any other Russian officials. As the envoys alighted from their car they were met by confidential messengers, from the president's official household and escorted to one of the president's carriages sent to the station to_convey them to Sagamore Hill. A considerable crowd of residents of the village had assembled at the station to see the distinguished visitors.

U. last Friday at the home of Mrs. Ella Jackson the following is an extract read from Marion Bon sail,e "Tragedy of the Morman Woman." The book of Morman as is generally known, is believed by the Mormans to have been restored to the world by the prophet Jeseph Smith these records were given to them by an angel. To them is taught that God meant Adam, a polygamous God, and Christ was a polygamous Christ among whose wives were Mary and Martha. Countless hundreds of years ago the head God called together the other Gods and sat in grand council to bring forth the world, they sent Adam with one of his wives to beautify and people it. Provided that a morman man has been a consistent saint and obeyed the "celestial," which is the plural order of marriage, he will be exaltedto be ruler of a planet or a God and his kingdom will consist of his wife and children. In mathematical order he will in turn take one of his wives and go to an uninhabited planet-and people it after the T manner of Adam and Eve. All of - Tfce ItfMt Asaerieaa Kirn*.

I was obliged to leave college during the spring of my senior year. I had devoted myself exclusively to study, and this had broken down my health. 1 was advised by my physician to go to some quiet country place and do nothing from morning till night but lounge. I chose the village of N. When I went there the leaves were budding, the air was soft and balmy, the walks were beautiful, and I gave myself up to strolling. On one of my routes there was a young ladles' seminary surrounded by a high brick wall. One morning while passing .I heard a voice —it was soft and melodious and evidently came from a young girl—uttering a string of words that could only be expected from one of the opposite sex: "By thunder! A thousand devils! Confound It!" The expletives were not all as innocent as these. There were many that would have done credit to the forecastle. A repetition of them would repel the reader, though to me the words came out with such apparent unconsciousness of guilt that I was simply amused. It was like a chird Just learning to talk, getting hold of expressions the meaning of which ft does not understand. The girl did not seem to be angry with any one. She was evidently fascinated with the sounds, bringing them out with great gusto, as we students fired from out our throats the college yell. I was attracted to the girl without even seeing her. I pictured her as one of those little Imps who by their roguish ways fascinate all who come within their influence, She must have laughing eyes, a dimple in each cheek, the whitest of teeth constantly displayed In smiles by the parting of a pair of y-red-ilps.-Then wnea=fomping with et& er girls I fancied her kicking off their bats, though If seen by a man she Would turn" scarlet. With my conception of her I fell in love, and, having nothing else to occupy my mind, I dwelt upon her charms constantly. I passed the school often, hoping again to hear the incongruity of a charming voice uttering such rough expressions, but this was not likely, and, though I often loitered for hours under the wall, I never heard the youthful swearer. Ten years later I chose a wife. I always regretted that fate had never thrown the swearer in my way. though I feared If I had met. loved :uul won ber she might have been altogether too peppery for me. My fiancee, the daughter of a clergyman, was her very opposlte-ra girl of character, one who took great Interest in the charitable work connected with her father's church—indeed, what might be called a model. woman. After all, thought I, my little swearer must have turned out full of the old Nick, if not positively bad. Girls who have spice In tbem are attractive, but one never knows when a taste for wickedness is going to make them a trial to their -husbands. Nevertheless I wished that my fiancee had Just a dash of this same spice. She seemed to me to be almost too steady. Men of my kind, men who are themselves reserved, dignified, methodical, always superior to temptation— because, I have often thought, we are not of a nature to be tempted— usually admire our opposites. I felt self getting a trifle wearied by my fiancee's similarity to myself. As our wedding day approached this feeling grew upon me. Was I not about to make ji mistake—the mistake of a whole lifetime? This set me to brooding when I should have been looking forward to the delights of a novel condition. In time this something on my mind attracted the attention of the girl who was to be my bride. Instead of upbraiding me, as another woman would hare done, she bore my condition without a murmur. This only dissatisfied me the more. "If she only had enough wickedness in her," I said tq myself, "to tell me to go to the deuce I think I could be happy. As It is, she is killing me with her self control, her piety, her interest In good works. I should have known better than to marry a minister's daughter." My condition was such a few days before our wedding that after a bitter mental struggle, which left me awake all night, I resolved to go to my bride expectant aud make a confession. I went to her house in the morning after breakfast and asked for her. She came down with a happy look on her face, but when she sfaw my careworn expression it left her at once. I led her to the library and shut the door. "I have called," I said lugubriously, "to say before it is too late that I fear we are going to make a mistake, and It is better to back out at the last moment thaivruin a whole lifetime. 1 have come to the conclusion that we are too much alik"-lwth too steady, too upright, too serious iudeed, you are too good." "So this is what has beeu troubling you." she said, her expression relaxing. "By thmuler! A thousand devils I Confound it!** . - "Arc you"— I gasped. "The girl you have told me about so often? •' Yes. From what you "said about h*f I supposed yon condemned bar. It Appears I h a r e made a mistake." With that she went on with a string of oaths so terrible that I pnt my hano> to my ears that I should not bear. Then I caught her around the waist and stopped the flow of words with kisses. All the real, practical goodness my wife had developed remained with her. The spice which she had concealed from me ha3 been sparkling in her ever since our marriage. CLARENCE MBACHEM.

She bowed her head and jmurmurei something about "changes to be made."

In the hour of waiting .there was much serious conversation between husband and wife. At last he said. "I can see you doubt me. I have been gone so long; so many troubles have intervened they have tended to set you apart from me. Is not that so?" "Perhaps so." "Then I would not have you do violence to your feelings^I will stay here —it is better so for many reasons; but you shall live your own life until such a time as you can truly feel that you love me as you once did. I want to be hear the children, I want to be near you, Constance. May I? May I have the. room next to your uncle's?" "Yes." "And will you try to love me again?" he asked gently, yet with an eagerness he could not quite conceal. •<• "Love cannot be forced," she answered. "But it will come in time if you will let it." But suddenly, evidently recollecting some resolution he had made, he checked himself and. said no more, while Constance sat idly turning-over the leaves of a book until she saw the bank officers coming5 up the street. Then-she arose ta g o _ =_„: , _ _ Prpslrtftnt HartweU and eight trustees, with Tony Osborn, soon entered. The new cashier, or treasurer, was not present. Mr. Hamilton's manner was very cordia* aad easy. Well as the several gentlemen thought they knew him, they were not prepared for so much composure and freedom from nervousness. A rUmor of lost- identity as the sequel of his mysterious absence had already, reached them, early as it was in the day; and they were, therefore, prepared to listen without interruptions or exclamations, until he had — i• • • . i * ii • i. • e« i> mmt ii m~ »• ••! f*m*n• • tM • I I ' ^ ' B W I i Mr. Simon Low's letter In regard to Hamilton's having presented one of toem to the National Bank in Boston. What could have been harder to bear than this if he were guilty? they thought, as they watched him gravelystudying theynotes and letters. "The forgery was cleverly done," be said, handing them back. "I could never have detected it any more than Low did, and Low is above suspicion, of course. No doubt the matter is just as he states it. A men resembling me, doubtless, presented the note." "But it was you who came to the bank, anyway." It was Tony who spoke, at first seemingly with a little doubt clinging to bis mind. But the anyway he brought out boldly, almost defiantly, as he looked at Mr. Hamilton, who for a moment lost his composure. He did not answer at once, and when he did it was in a hesitating way. "I cannot dispute you, Tony. Would to Heaven I could. But consider this. If it was I who came there, should I not have come home? would not my footsteps have unconsciously brought me to my own door?" "Perhaps not," said Mr. Taylor, a quiet man who had not before spoken. "I have read of instances of dual life where everything is changed. Memory is a thing apart from consciousness. It is said to be a function of matter to be impressed with its own actions. When an action ha«been repeated many times, or evetr^ once, strongly, the memory of it becomes stamped upon a little cell of the brain, and the stamp dominates the cell. When the stimulant again comes, the cell reacts as it formerly has done. Now here comes the point in question.

What might not a man do under these conditions? Atavism was less strange to consider. And yet was It not true that human reason was often insufficient to set against the commonest delinquency? The gentlemen sitting about the table were nonplussed, all but Mr. Taylor, who had faith in his theory. He, evidently, believedMr. Hamilton's statement. "But," said he, "in the present state of society there are no provisions made for this sort of lapse, outside of insanity, and a man so afflicted can do no less than suffer the consequences of his acts, however they may have occurred. At least it is not fair for others to suffer. The money, if taken by your own hand, should be refunded and—" "Mr. Taylor," interrupted the president, frowning a little, "are you not a little fast? The matter as it now stands is of serious import. It will have to be investigated. A warrant was made out for arrest, and was, or is now, in the hands of Bruce, the detective. It was made out by Justice Bailey. Sheriff Gray Is away on business, and Bruce acts as his deputy. I telegraphed Bruce last night, and it is nearly time," looking at his watch, "for him to arrive.

At a meeting of the city council i t was decided to-close Memphis to the world after 12 o'clock noon on August 7. A cordon of armed guards will 1>e placed around the city, guarding all roads and intervening points and no person will be allowed to pass in unless he holds a written permit from the Memphis board of health. It is estimated that the cost of the shotgun quarantine will approximate $50,000, which amount is expected to be raised by popular subscription.

There was a silence of many seconds ere any one spoke. At last Mr. Hartwell said,'cautiou8ly: "Did you say your memory had returned to you?" "Not fully. I remember all of my past life, I think, now, with the exception of the brief time when the suspension in my ordinary faculties took place." "You came to yourself in Seattle, you say?" "Yes." "Can you give us addresses there where we may be able to learn corrobative facts, Mr. Hamilton?" "I can give you addresses of the workmen and 'of the men who owned the factory, Barnacle & Co.; that is all." The president took down four or five addresses given, him by Mi. Hamilton. "No doubt," said Mr. Cowdrey, one of the trustees, "You have heard something of the grave charges made against you. Indeed, there is, 1 believe, a warrant out for your arrest." Mr. Cowdrey knew perfectly well that there was, but it was an awkward thing to say to a man in his own house. Mr. Hamilton gave a start. "I did not know that," he said; "but it if as well, perhaps, that the investigation 'SbouUUbe made public. I wish you would teU me exactly how matters stAnd.at the bairft." ' ' A sucdhct statement was made by the united accounts of the.president and trustees, and by young Osborn, whose position at the bank was nominally that of teller. He was eves shown the altered notes, the letter thrust under the president's door, and be evolved which may make it clearer to myself. I thank Mr. Taylor for his confidence in me, or, rather, for his belief In my statement." "Yotr must not think we doubt it," said the president, more mildly, "because we say less. There is no other course open but to let the matter go into a natural Issue. Too much has already transpired'."' "Yon are right, without doubt," said Hamilton. "But you must see that to one, who has been ignorant of any stir, who returns to Iris home, Imagining everything to be fa its normal condition, and who is first confronted by his own monument, then these suspicions, it is strfficiently confusing."

Qen, Grant's $1,500 Mexican Sombrero Still Holda Record. •Talking about expensive hats," said a prominent hat dealer, "the most costly hat that was ever made was presented to Gen. Grant while in Mexico in 1882. It cost $1,500 in gold. It is now in the national museum at Washington, says the New York Press. "Panama hats used to be frequently sold as high as $500 each, r remember selling four hats at that price in a single day In 1872, but such hats are no longer to be obtained. The most expensive panama I have sold in years was bought by a banker of this city last week for $100. It was the last fine panama hat in stock. Such hats are still worn by the hidalgos in South America. They are not made in Panama, but got the name because that city was formerly the greatest market for them. The finest hats come, from Peru. They are made of the fiber of the pita or pineapple plant, which is as soft and pliable as silk, and some of them are so fine that they can be folded up and carried in one's vest pocket."

"Since he was 2 years old he has eaten nothing but Grape-Nuts. He demands and gets this food three times a day. This may seem rather unusual, but he does not care for anything else after he has eaten his Grape-Nuts, which he uses with milk or cream, and then he is through with bis meal. Even on Thanksgiving day he refused turkey and all the good things that make up that great dinner, and ate his dish of Grape-Nuts and cream with the best results and none of the evils that the other foolish members of the family experienced.

Mull's GrapeTonic (FREE) FOR Hot Weather Dangers CONSTIPATION STOMACH AND BOWEL TROUBLE No one with regular bowels and healthy stomach can contract disease.

H Detroit's Greatest Crime. Beaten down with either a hatchet or a meat cleaver, while attempting to defend the many thousands of dollars' worth of jew«lry and other valuables in his pawn shop at 42 Monroe | avenue, Detroit, Joseph Moyer, a ' wealthy Jew, 54 years old, was butchered in his shop early Friday evening while hundreds of persons were passing the place, and the robbers escaped with nearly $10,000 in cash and jewelry. Moyer was not dead when found. He was unconscious, but he never revived to whisper a word a s to the description or identity of his murderers. It was shortly before 7 in the evening when the dying man was taken from the pawn shop, where he has been engaged in business for years, and carried on a stretcher to an ambulance. He was conveyed to St. Mary's hospital, where he died without regaining consciousness and before his wife could reach him. The murder was committed while the clerk was out for supper and Moyer was alone in the store. According to an unfinished ticket in the shop -" register the last visitor was "A. E. Roberts," who gave his address as "Box 28, Delray," and tried to pawn a watch within ten minutes of the time the crime was committed. No such man lives in Delray; no such man receives his mail at Box 28, Delray postofflce. One A. E. Roberts lived on West End avenue about a year ago, but moved away. No one recalls the man, his appearance or his business. The belief exists in the minds of the police that the man who pretended to pawn a watch induced Moyer to leave his place behind the counter, and, upon some pretext or other, got him around to the spot where he was struck on the head and felled to the floor. Descriptions, meagre however, are given of two men who may have been the murderers. H. B. White, proprietor of a clothing house, 47 Monroe avenue, opposite Moyer's store, saw a short man, wearing a straw hat, and a tall man wearing a black fedora stand near the Moyer store about 6:15. The short man entered the store and the tall man waited outside as White left his store. The story of the murder itself is written in blood on the floor of the pawnshop. In a narrow pathway between two showcases on the right hand side of the store Moyer was attacked. He was struck over the head, with blows raining upon him. until he •JII unconscious and bleeding to the floor. Then like an ox that had been stunned in a s^aughter house he was dragged farther back to permit the finishing of the butchery. A trail of blood, smeared upon the floor shows how he was dragged from the plflfA whprp hp fell, across the reai Fire at Osslneke destroyed $15,000 worth of cedar ties, posts and hemlock bark. 1 / Mr*.

What makes the crime unparalleled in the annals of murder in the city is the boldness with which it w a / executed, the almost incredible brutality with which the helpless victim was slain and the large amount of booty that was secured. It was, as Capt. MC' Donnell summarized it: / "We have had bank robberies where larger amounts of rnoney and valuables have been secured, but no personal injury "was )hdieted. We have had brutal murders but no large loot was obtained. The present crime, however, is a combination of both; which, therefore, makes it the worst crime ever committed in the city." The very hour of the murder suggests Rs boldness. Moyer was butchered between 6:10 and 6:20 o'clocl; Friday evening—an hour when Monroe avenue is crowded with people passing by and hurrying home, when it is still broad daylight, when policemen are coming and going to change duties at police headquarters, in the very shadow of which lies the scene of the mm der. In fact, at. the exact time when two men rained their terrific blows upon the head of the defenseless pawnbrok er, Capt. McDonnell, chief of detectives, was on the same street less than two hundred feet away. tlon between the Chinese secret societies and the Masonic body, says the Washington Star. Allusions to Chinese Freemasonry" appear periodically in the newspapers, though^ according to the Cyclopedia of Fraternities, there Is no such thing as Freemasonry among the Chinese. The only Masonic lodges in China are In the foreign concessions at the seaports. Their membership is composed exclusively of others than Chinese and they are conducted under foreign warrants.

B. The tone of the Russian press grows more warlike as the peace conference draws nigh and the government on- • all' sides is urged to resist humiliating demands even at the cost of continuing the war. "Peace on the Japanese terms as outlined by Mr. Sato." says the Russ, which is the first paper to comment seriously on the Sato interviews, "can only be an armistice." The (Russ, which has now the largest liberal following,'finds the Japanese demands far from moderate and sees little chance of the conference ending auccessfurly, if Mr. Sato has corerctly stated the Japanese position, but it appears to believe that Baron Komura'a spokesman Is acting "on his own responsibility," or scents a possible Muff to pave the way for the acceptance of actual and more moderate terms by Japan. Girls Were Brave. The help of the Toledo fire brigade had to be invoked to quell a serious fire which threatened to burn down the whole town of Dundee. Thursday. The losses are: Moore's Hvery, 14,000; insured, $1,200: Hitchens, $3,000. insured for $300; Mrs. Brlndel, $1,000, insurance $300; Pulver, $700, no insurance.' The telephone system and electric light plant are knocked out of commission for a few days. The cause of the fire is unknown. During the fire Mrs. Herbert Hitchens and her 13- year-oldj sister, Kittle Aton, performed an act of heroism that undoubtedly saved many lives. While the roof of the coal office was in flames they rushed into the building and carried out ten cans of blasting powder and a box of dynamite that was stored there. ,•« NO I f Iffi 6BKE&AL V E A 0 E 8 8 A I D F$V£B DISAPKAB TOO.

U. ^sytsJtH>yiPf»y»»tiiPf»stiPt Sir George White, in a recent temperance address, mentioned that in several regiments in India there were great differences in the number of admission of abstaining and non-abstaining soldiers, the former being only fortynine in every 1,000, as against niuety.two of those who used in^ tozicating liquors. Has intemperance anything to do with the demonstrated inferiority of Russian military leadership? "American Medicine" thinks that it has, and compares the habitual, if not total abstainance of the Japanese officers with the notorious consumption of vodka and champagne by the Russians. This, it says, is not merely a question of drunkenness at the moment of danger, but of the cumulative effect of daily doses of alcohol. * You may preach until your head is gray, and you may pray until your knees are as hard as a camel's, you may adopt all the temperance reports and pass all the temperance resolutions you please in your associations and conventions.

CAlfiM m tfANDES [Grleimil.] Young Mr. and Mr*. Uussell Ewlng MMirrled for love. Theiv was no money In the family except such rts belonged to Mr. Ewlng's aunt, a spinster of forty, who possessed a lai*g^ fortune. This lady had made several wills, at last making one leaving all her property to her nephew, ltusseU. But, the testator being a healthy woman, there was little hope that the young couple would inherit the fortune, at least not for a long while, Meanwhile by pinching they managed to get along. One summer after a great deal of hard work — servant's work — Mrs. Swing found it necessary to recuperate at a farmhouse. She soon tired of the farm, and, without notifying her husband, whom she knew would object, she packed her traps and took a train. She reached the city and her home shortly before her husband usually came home from business. What was her surprise to see coming down the stairs a well dressed woman about her own age and quite as comely. "Well," gasped the wife, astonished, "what are you doing here?'* Now, till this moment Mrs. Ewing had never doubted her husband's fidelity. But coming home unexpected to find a young woman In the house without even a servant to chaperon her was too much for the wife's faith. She looked daggers at the woman, who trembled before her. "You hussy! You shameless thing! How dare you come here when I am not at home? Have you been here every evening to receive my husband on bis return from business?" A sudden intelligence came to the stranger's eyes, but she made no reply; she simply hung her head: "Who are you?" asked the outraged -wHer- ^ ^ ^ = _ No answer. ' " ' *•". , ^ " «**.: » • ' i» dead.

Hls( surmise was correct His cousin, whom he had never' seen, had stolen the will wh'ch kept her from the property and when caught had played the role of her cousin's paramour, hoping to escape with the paper.

There was a rattling in the keyhole, the door opened and In walked the husband. He stood gaping at the two women, but not for long. His wife turned upon him. "Who is this creature whom you have to meet you when you-come home from business?" "Indeed, my dear, I don't know. What brought you home so suddenly?" "Russell Ewing, ,do you think to impose upon me by such a denial? Bur of course—how can I expect—neither will admit anything. I want you both to understand that before this shameless woman leaves this house I'll know who she is. Oh, Russell, how could you?" "Ask her," said the husband, "if she ever saw me before." There was no need to ask. The woman turned away, hiding her face, plainly showing that she was not entirely shameless. "She admits her and your guilt," moaned the wife. "Oh, Russell!" "Well, I'll be hanged!" exclaimed the husband in real or feigned astonishment. Before he could stop his wife she had gone to the telephone and called for a policeman. The stranger made a move to get out of the front door, but Mr. Ewlng stopped her. Then there was wrangling between the husband and wife, which was Interrupted by the coming of the policeman. _'"TflkP that "woman to the station," said Mrs. Ewlng, "and hold ner till she agrees to tell who she is; then send for me." The officer agreed to hold the woman on a charge of trespass if Mrs. Ewing would promise to appear against her. The promise was made, and the woman was led away. 4 The next hour at the Ewlng home was one of keenest misery. Mrs. Ewing locked herself in her room, and her lamentations could be heard all over the house. Mr. Ewing paced between the- sitting and dining rooms with a rueful face. During his wife's absence he had been used to going out soon after his arrival at home and getting his dinner. Now he had no appetite and did not go. Finally he took an evening paper from his pocket and tried to read. Suddenly he started. An announcement in the paper was the cause. He read it again and again, then rushed upstairs. Passing a little room where he-kept a desk, he was surprised to see It had been rifled. Rushing toward i t he thrust his hand into a certain pigeonhole and turned pale. For a moment he stood In deep thought, then ran downstairs to the telephone and called up the police.station. "I*m Ewing. Have you got the woman you took from my house?** "Yes." "Search her. Let me know what you find." "All right. Hold the wire." Ewlng held the wire for fully minutes, then there was a ring. "Well?" "We searched hev and found a per." *lWhat paperr "It's a will."

Joseph Jefferson, two or three years ago. gave an address before the Woman's Club of Brockton, Mass. Wearing a dress suit, he stood before an audience of well dressed women, who had invited • their husbands for this important occasion. The address was fall of pithy remarks, and at its*close Jefferson said: "Now, aak questions, and then I'll get an idea of the things you'd like me to talk about." Question followed question, and in course of time ha was asked, "Do you believe in realism?" "Now. that," replied Jefferson, "Is vwy much like a question I'm often aaked after a performance. Suppose I was playing in a drama in which a cow had any part. I don't mind tell* lng you that I am afraid of cows, and it I waa taking part In such a play I should very much rather have the cow simply mentioned than to have him walk on to the stage." At this point the audience laughed^ and Jefferson, pausing a moment to realize the joke, added: "I beg your pardon, and the cow's, too. I should have said 'her.' of c o r * " • Chose the Lesser Evil.

The Bachelor's Hard Lot. It is hard to be a bachelor in Amerca. The President abuses you in a Jew well-chosen words. The women ^f the country hold a congress and Jebate upon you. Even the Senate joins in the'fray. Senator Beveridge, :hrough the medium of a Philadelphia gaper, nas Deen telling the Dacneior what he thinks of him. President Roosevelt chastised the unhappy man with whips, butt the Senator takes to scorpions. "You are nobody," says he, genially, "if you are merely an individual. Both Nature and society have use for you only as one of a pair, (f your arm Is not,strong enough to protect a wife, and your shoulders not broad enough to carry aloft your children ia a sort of grand gladness, you are really not worth while." This doubtless is so. And yet the fathers whom one occasionaly meets in the street carrying aloft their children do not seem to be feeHng a very grand gladness. That probably is their mistake. When Presidents and Senators puff matrimony like this, we realize iow much valuable exhortation we lose by making a bachelor our Pre: mier.—London Telegraph. Keeping Young. If you want to be young don't allow yourself to think on your birthday that you are a year older and1 so much nearer the end.

A clergyman who pursues his noble calling in a country parish in Iowa, tells of his coffee experience: "My wife and I used coffee regularly for breakfast, frequently for dinner and occasionally for supper—always the very best quality—package coffee never could find a place on our table. "In the spring of 1896 my wife was taken with violent vomiting which we had great difficulty in stopping. "It seemed to come from coffee drinking but we could not decide. "In the following1 July, however, she was attacked a second time by the -vomiting. I was away from home filling an appointment, at the time, and on my return I found her very low; she had literally vomited herself almost to death, and it took some days to quiet the trouble and restore her stomach. "I had also experienced the same trouble, but not so violently, and had relieved it, each time, by a resort to medicine. "But my wife's second attack satisfled me that the use of coffee was at the bottom of our troubles, and so we •topped it forthwith and took on Postum Food Coffee. The old symptoms of disease disappeared find during the 9 years that we have been using Postum instead of coffee we have never had a recurrence of the vomiting. We never weary of Postum, tt> which we know we owe our good •health.

Kidney Pills to cure. Mr. A. E. Carlile, well known and highly respected here, tells of his cure after nearly a quarter of a century's suffering. Mr. Carlile says: "I want to let the public know what I think of Dodd's Kidney Pills. 1 think they are the best remedy for sick kidneys ever made. "I had Kidney Trouble for 23 years itia never found anything that did me -BO much good as Dodd's Kidney Pills. I recommend them to all sufferers." There is no uncertain sound about Mr. Csrlile's statement. H t knows that Dodd's Kidney Pills rescued him from a life of suffering and he wants the public to know it.

The czar of all the Russia's still spends many hours lying fully dressed on his bed, his only exercise being taken in the gardens, when, brooding and with bowed head, in company with his physician, Dr. Hirsch, he walks to and fro, pausing now and again to slash viciously with his cane at a marguerite or Canterbury bell. Orders, it is said, are given, countermanded, then forgotten, and given again in a fashion utterly bewildering to all his entourage. Aimar Sato, of the Japanese peace delegation now in this country, IS hedging and now denies that he has ever in any interview given any outline of the terms upon which Japan will negotiate peace, or that he has announced that Japan will make any demands whatever. Mr. Sato said: "I wish to be clearly understood that I have never given out J U ^ h i n g _ l h a t could be construed as a demand of the Japanese peace commisskm, uor anything that could be taken as a condition upon which Japan would enter into negotiations for peace. I wish to deny that I am the spokesman for Baron Komura. Sensational articles have been published which are fabrications and In which I have been misquoted. I do not know upon what terms peace may be negotiated. I do not know what the Japanese envoys will consider as peace terms. I know of nohumlliatrhg or other demands." A story comes from Paris that new witnesses appear anxious to testify against General Stoessel, who is even now a prisoner in his own house at St. Petersburg, and who will undoubtedly soon be*-tried by court-martial. While the world at large was at first inclined to think that the hero of Port Arthur was a victim of persecution, it now seems beyond ail doubt that.his conduct both during the siege and after the fall of the fortress was such that no punishment can be too severe for him. The latest witness against him, a French merchant who remained in the fortress throughout the siege, but who is now at Marseilles, is very strong in his condemnation of Gen. Stoessel. He sayB: "Gen. Stoessel's conduct was disgraceful from beginning to end. His officers and men hated him, and thty had food reason to do so. He never showed the slightest interest in their welfare or pity for their Sofferlngs. He let- the soldiers go without shoes ,and dressed In filthy rags, when the storehouses were full of uniforms and supplies? of all kinds. He let the common soldiers, whose courage and pa- UfeucHj'BjJrBttBaefl auything 1 have aver seen, sfara; when/there were plenty of supplies"ojni hand." Thfs is now proved beyond all doubt, as the-Japa&ese found,-according to their official report, in the storehouses of the fallen fortress, 980 tons of salt beef, 81,00 pairs of boots, 6,000 tons of flour, and gfain, 102,000 suits of underwear,, and 200,000,000 cartridges and shells. When. Gen. Stoesseljeft the foptress his personal belongs filled 32 large baggage vans, while the privates were dressed in rags." The testimony of this merchant will go far towards convicting this sham hero, who so shamefully- abused his position to enrreh'himself.* ——•••• • - • "»m PTes^aen^,"Robsevett',entertained at •a&Z^SSi luncheon Thursday Baron Jutaro KomffJSWSM"* minister^.of eforefcnj^affairs, and mot* mi* Kcftaro •TaQsahhra, %intste5to foe.

In Carl Joubert's "Russia as It Really Is" the author gives the following anecdote: " "A Jewish peddler of Grodno dealt in pirrogs (meat pies), and two hungry muzhiks traveling in the third-class railroad car with him were so overpowered by the appetizing odor of his wares that, not having money to buy them, they slew the Jew without further ado and threw the~tredy out of the window,—Tee£ tt'»rp apprehended and to the astonish- ....11 i « > ' • < • • < / ;t > !

An imitator is naturally ignorant of food values and how to skillfully make a cereal coffee, on scientific lines. Such men first think of preparing something that looks and tastes like the original, with no knowledge of how the grains should be treated to prepare them so that the starchy part is transformed properly and the valuable nourishing elements made digestible. Such Imitations may be foisted on the public for a short time, but the people are critical and soon detect the attempt, then the imitators go out of business. Something like 400 of these little factories have been started in various parts of this country in the past 0 years, and practically all of them have gone the "long journey." Just lately a new one has come to life and evidently hopes to insert itself in public favor by copying the style of the Postum advertising in the papers. This is a free country and every man who makes an honest product and honestly labels it -has reason for some recognition, but the public has the right to know the facts. - Postum is the one original and genuine Cereal Coffee, made skillfully and for a definite purpose. It has 'stood through all the wars of the imitators, has won the approval of the Physicians and the people.

I The Brighton school has increased so in number that they voted Monday on a proposition to raise $2,500 to build an addition or a new school building. , We are in receipt of some fancy blotters from E.

We see oy the Trioune that Alfred Mylne of Glasgow, Scotland, h is been awarded the contract of building Sir Thomas Lipton's racing yacht with which he expects to win the American cup. Mr. Mylne is the youngest brother of Rev. Mylne of this place and a boat builder of the first degree. We see by some of our exchanges that according to a law passed by the legislature last winter, everybody who sells milk must take out a state license at a cost of $1.00. Grocers, selling milk, those selling a few pints to their friends, or the regular owner ot a milk wagon come under the new law. If this is right it is one of the most foolish laws make by our legislators. This will open up another fat job for one or more collectors and inspectors. Some merchants face mail order houses frankly. They are aggressive enough to have on hand aU of the catalogues of the different mail order houses, and offer to duplicate any price in them and to save their customers the freight charges in addition. They find this method very afiective in holding their old customers and gaining new ones. The mail order house has come to slay, and its business is built np by advertising. Talking against the mail order house will not help. The country merchant must simply do more and better advertising, and must meet competition as he finds it, not as be wishes it were. —Eq.

AND THE HORRIBLY BRUTAL CRIME FOR WHICH HE GOT LIFE. Emit Waltz 8ulcides. Emil Waltz, one of the most noted prisoners at Mawouette penitentiary, is dead, the result of a wound administered by his own hand. Sentenced at Detroit after a sensational trial for the fiendish murder of little Alphonse Welmes, the man since his incarceration had been a continual source of trouble to penitentiary officials. He appeared utterly depraved, was unmanageable £.nd quarrelsome with fellow convicts, and a mischief-maker generally. A few days ago it was discovered that he was packing but ninety cigars in each box, instead of a hundred, and when asked the reason replied that he was not strong enough to pack the extra ten. The man was sent to his cell and there wrote the warden, declaring he was unable to work to the degree the other men were doing. The prison physician was sent for and Waltz was summoned to the office for examination. The convict refused to leave his cell, evidently having an idea that it was Intended to punish him, and when the warden and Deputy Warden Catlin A NPW York sEomaa-left-hec.hus-. -ftotrrrsbed-a fcntfe.This-wtrs trtable knife Waltz had stolen and secreted tad-hehad- ground lt-io.

Miss AbbJe Taggart of California has killed seven bears and a mountain lion, but she candidly admits that she has never scrubbed the kitchen floor. a sharp point, threatening death to the officers should they attempt to seize him. Waltz brandished his weapon with much bravado. Nothing daunted, Catlin stepped into the cell, using a stool as a shield, whereupon Waltz turned the knife upon himself and Plunged it into'his side. Almost Instantly Catlin had the man pinioned up against the wall with the stool, and Waltz was disarmed and sent to the hospital. It was not thought at the time the wound was serious.

James and George Cribley were put to bed early, and at 9 o'clock, just as their father was preparing for bed a loud crash reached his ears. Rushing to the stairway he threw open the door and was met by a stifling wave of heat and flame. Through the flames he co^lrf see the small forms of his babies clasped in each others arms and crying at the top of their voices. With an almost superhuman effort he rushed through, the flames but was driven back, his face burned and his hair blazing.

All... the thin rolled flake foods are mad.e by soaking the grains of wheat or oats in water, then rolling, drying and packing. These operations do not. cook or pre-dlgest the starch. Contrasted with this pretense, observe the care, method and skill in making Grape-Nuts. The barley is soaked about one•_ hundred hours, then it is slowly warmed for some days and sprouted,, the diastase being developed and partof the starch turned to sugar (and later on all of it), then the grains are baked and the sprouts stripped off. Then comes grinding, sifting and mixing with the creamy colored flour made from white and maccaroni wheat. This mixture must be skillfully made in right proportions. This blended flour contains just the ingredients demanded by nature to rebuild the soft gray substance In the nervecenters and brain, but how to make the food easy to digest, that was the question. It certainly would not do to mix in drugs, for there Is a certain failure sure to come to the person depending on drugs to digest food. They may do for a temporary expedient, but pure food and digestible food is the only final reoort and' safe way. So t o change the remaining starch part and prepare the other elements in this blended flour it is made up into raassive leaves like bread, the inside being dark cream color and quite sticky to the touch. These loaves are sliced and again go through long cooking at certain temperatures. Then the rook hard slices are each one carefully inspected and ground ready for packing and use, having gone through 10 or 12 hours in the different operations. When finished, each little granule will show a sparkling substance on its surface. A magnifying glass will bring it out clearer and develop little pieces of pure dextrose sugar, not put on "or poured over" p(as the head of a large Sanitarium once stated in his paper, thus exposing his appalling Ignorance of food processes), hut this sugar exudes from-the interior of each as the starch is slowly turned to sugar in the process ot manufacture. This kind of sugar 1¾ exactly like what is found in the human intestines, provided the jstarch of >the grains, potatoes, bread, rice, caKe, etc, etc., has been perfectly digested. : But many are 'weak in that form of digestion, and yet need the starches, so' Grape- Nuts supplies them pre-digested and ready to go quickly into the blood. Visitors are shown freely through the works and can follow the steps of making Grape-Nuts from the grain to the finished product. The proportions of different kinds of flour, and the temperatures are not disclosed and, itseems Impossible for others to steal these secrets of the makers.

Manitoba in the eastern portion of tho country wa* created a province a year after the purchase* from the Hudson Bay Company in 1870. In 1882, the western country was tapped by the extended main line of tra C. P. R. That year also territorial government wa* established, v tae remaining outlying country being converted into four territories—Alberta, AsBinibota, Saskatchewan, and Athabasca—with a central government for all at Regina. The few thousand people*of those days have grown into the half million of to-day. Let us now. note some of the evi- I lng on to ifs confines to bring it to the front as tvAeld for most extensive aud profitable settlement. The whole country embraces an area of over 385,000,00a acres-and deducting water and broken land there is plenty of wheat growing territory to produce twenty times over the .requirements of Great Britain, . * As wheat can be grown at $7.50 per acre with wages to the men doing their own work besides, and as year in and year out the yield, and price are twenty bushels at 60 cents, the profits are 14*50. per acre. As live stock doubles every three years and grows like wheat while th« farmer is sleeping, we expect that this will always be one of the leading features of the agricultural Industry. As the Pacific coast or warm winds melt the snow IttrAJbesta. almost.as rapidly as it falls, the herds' of live stock live out on the open prairie the entire year through and are in good condition every spring. The native grasses are highly nutritious and retain their qualities the whole winter through, — - U s i n g , Reaping Record dences of advancement. The first bushel of wheat was shipped in 1882, In fact the first shipment from Manitoba, merely as a sample, was made in 1877. In 1904 there were under all •crops, excepting hay, 1,575,000 acres in the western provinces, producing 17,250,350 bushels of wheat, 18,250,640 bushels of oats, and 2,350,420 bushels of barley, realizing a total of about 818,500,000 for the farmers. In Manitoba there were grown in 1904 41,600,000 bushels of wheat and •other farm products in proportion. The first mile of railway was built in the country in 1880, and to-day there are over 6,000 miles of road in operation, and further extensions are going ahead as fast as men and money can build them. There are two trunk lines in the country, the C. P. R.and the Canadian Northern, with the Grand Trunk commencing its' transr continental line. In addition to these, trunk lines, all systems are extending branches to all sections where there are settlements to patronize them. The grain elevator development is another assurance of the wonderful expansion of the country, the onefourth of the whole area, or about 95,- 000.000 acres of the country traversed by railways being now fairly supplied by elevators. In all there are 1.015 of them In the^country with a combined capacity of 27,683,000 bushels and erected at a cost of over $55,000,000. In addition to tnese, elevators at the head of the lakes have storage- capacity of 28,200,000. Fourteen years ago the entire .storage capacity of the elevators was 7,628,000 bushels, to-day It is 41,600,000 and increasing yearly from five to ten million bushels. .,("What the settlement of the country ?;?'; .will be in the next ten years may vweli be imagined from the fact that -" last year the immigration was over 133,00u souls. There are those who believe the grain-producing area of the country must be limited, but results tell a Crop at Battlfiford. i making winter feed as Inexpensive aa | summer pasturage. As $2,835-516 worth of live stock was marketed in that country in six months of last year an Idea may be formed of the proportions it may be led to attain when the country be. comes fully settled up. Dairying is the third leading business of the Northwest farmer, and may, like the others be developed while the farmer Is sleeping. It is found that on account of the cost of farm help, and to avert the expense of erecting suitable buildings for the purpose, the co-operative system is decidedly the best. Under it the entire management is in the hands of the government under expert operatives, though control of sales, etc., rests with the patrons. The farmers 3imply deliver their milk or cream. usually the latter, at the dairies, receive monthly advances, and balances of proceeds of sales at the close of the year. The schools are free and non-denomi national—rational. There is no tax for attendance, the government defrays the greater part of the cost of support of a highly certificated staff of teachers. There are schools In all country districts where there are- a dozen pupils to attend them and the tax is rarely more than $4 a year on every quarter section. As each province— Alberta and Saskatchewan—under the new provincial autonomy will receive at the start from the Federal government $1,100,000 a year, there will be but very inconsiderable taxation for any and all provincial purposes. Fuel is the bugbear of many of the prairie countries. In Western Canada, however, there are but few districts without an ample supply of timber, and as coal of the best quality is everywhere present no farmer being more than 200 miles distant from a mine, and the price never more than $4.50 per ton to him at his door, it is *->A ,r~*- '<«aiBau > - " , - • • Threahlno No, 1 Hard Wheat In Western Canada, different story.

George W. Veale of Topeka, the well known Kansas politician, had a narrow escape from a duel one time, says the Kansas City Journal. V. J. Lane, the veteran Democratic editor of Wyandotte and one of the few survivors of the Wyandotte constitutional convention, tells the story. "It was in 1859," he says, "when Col. Veale was at Quindaro that__a long, tall Mlssisslppian, Col. E. R. Smith, challenged him to fight a duel. Veale had been one of the leading spirits at a meeting which passed some resolutions which were rather derogatory to the character of Col. Smith and the Mississippian wanted vengeance. He wanted vengeance because he thought Veale wouldn't fight under any circumstances, so he sent him a challenge to fight a duel. "Veale was scared almost to death Tvhen he received- the—challenge- and he at once sent for some of his cronies to ask their^ advice in the matter. I was one of the number consulted and we advised* him to accept, by all means. "We told him he had every advantage and he should accept the challenge and demand that he be allowed the privilege of selecting the time. place and weapons to be used. "The Mississippian promptly sent back work that any arrangements Veale might make would be satisfactory and he at once called his friends to arrange for the fight. Veale, at our direction, named pistols aa the weapons to be used. The Mississippian told us he had never used a pistol and_ he wanted to practice. This just suited us and IveToWlrim we would arrange for target practice in an old barn, whioh we did. There was a . . Most people^axe eorxy only *a*fet» M la too late.

When the panic of 1S37 swept over the country the national road was barely halfway through Illinois. No work was done on it after 1841. Two years before, however, a line of stages and post routes had been started from Cumberland, in Maryland, to Terre Haute, in Indiana, from which latter place there was a triweekly service for passengers and mail to Springfield, III. This marked the first overland travel from east to west. Passengers and mall bags were jolted along in cumbersome coaches, each with four strong horses. On account of the high rates travel was confined mainly to merchants and lawyers. The passenger, with an allowance of fifty pounds of baggage, paid at the rate of 10 cents a mtte.

She thought him indiffere n t He was certainly a cool chap, and the three traits combined attracted, her. They took long walks in the tnorning* and invariably seated themselves in some .shady nojk where Instead of "dreamlug the happy hours away" they discussed abstruse questions. Several weeks passed, and there w a s no mention between them of their growing intimacy. He spoke of returning to his work In the city without mentioning any regret at the discontinuance of their walks or their sittings In the moonlight on the porch. She dared not mention the parting for fear her voice would tremble. One morning after they had come in from a walk they went to the mantel In the living room, where the mail was deposited, and she, taking up a letter addressed to him In a woman's hand, gave it to him. He simply said, "Thank you." She spent the afternoon wondering who was tils correspondent and surmising bis action at receiving a letter from a mother, a sister, a girl friend or a sweetheart. If it were from either of the first three he would have said something to denote the fact; if from a sweetheart, he would have said no more than "thank you." This was her reasoning. The next morning instead of waiting for him to go to walk she went alone. That Is what a girl In love would usually do under the circumstances. She assumed on evidence that would have no weight with twelve Jurymen —mind you, I say jurymen not Jury "iPronsen—that nfcrcorrespondeat-wa# 4*J»= fiance.

That was not all; he hand*! out a very attractive looking girl, whom he led Into the house. He reappeared just as the girl who had witnessed the arrival was approaching the porch. He went to meet.her, pleasantly, but noticing a severe expression on her face his own assumed a serious cast. Evidently there was a change. He had been intending to explain bis not joining in her walk by telling her that he had' gone to the station, but he concluded to a^rait developments. "Pleasant walk?" he asked. "Very." 4T didn't see you when you started.'* "It is not to be expected that you should go to walk with me tuery morning." "Certainly not; that would be very selfish o f me, Suppose we go Into the summer house." "Thank you; I'm tired. I shall rest awhile before dinner." "As you like. I'll stroll down to the river bank. Good morning." This was not to her purpose. She changed her mind and said she would go into the summer house for a few minutes only. "Why did you deliberately go off to want without me Uila mormiig?" he asked when they were seated. He assumed that she had done this, he did not know i t "I don't care to attract the attention of those in the house by these walks, especially"— "Well?" •The young lady who has just arrived might not like i t " "I hadn't thought of that." "You should have thought of it** "We men are methodical fellows. We take up matters as they come along, while your sex ate prone to take them up as fancy dictates." "As principle dictates."

"You must remember that what we call principle **partakes of education. The Greeks"— "Bother the Greeks. What had they to do with us?" There was a brief silence. Evidently the hair splitting was over. Presently he said: "We shall not hereafter be quite so free to enjoy these walks together, for"~ "Evidently not." "My mother will be up on Saturday, and"- "Oh, your-mother!" "Yes. She is an invalid, and I shall need to devote a good deal of time to her." "And the rest will belong to another."

Acetylene is already taking its place as an illumlnant for towns from a : central plant, for lighting houses, churches, schools and isolated buildings of all kinds, and it is being used successfully for many other purposes. A striking and important feature of acetylene is the ease and small expense with which it can be made available compared with the great advantages derived from its use..

Up to this time the lodger had accepted without Questioning these changes as emanating Iron*. Mrs. Fry, and had done many an odd; job for her in return, but the coat puzzled him. Taking it to her he said: "I found it, but it isn't mine. I never had' one like it." "Well, if I was you, I'd jest wear it an' ask no questions," said Mrs. Fry, speaking as she would to a child. But a look of decision flashed into the man's face. "I can't wear It until I know where it comes from.'' "Oh, well, if you must knowt Mrs. Hamilton sent it over. It's Christmas, you know, or was last week, and she always thinks of them that's alone in the world." With a sudden gleam of light in. his eyes, the man left her and went into bls> room. It was Sabbath morning, and he never came out for hours. If Mrs. Fry could have seen him with the coat on, sitting by his table patiently trying to form the letters after Dan's copy, and again and again writing the word Constance, she would have been puzzled. And' the ha-apy, peaceful look on his face when Tie succeeded fairly well, would have puzzled her, likewise, for Primus Edes was not an imbecile in any sense. ., Mr. Swan had long ago learned that Primus Edes-came from a Western city, where for at least a month he had worked In a sash and blind fac-. Tory, tfiaTTie~Twre=ir respectableetarr^tle-downv=o.uiet like with.her. rater, was deemed a little dull, though a good workman, and that a man named Harrison Arkwright worked in the same factory at the same time, but was now gone away, so it was impossible to learn whether he was the person who had owned the articles of clothing marked H. A. or not. Swan learned to his satisfaction . . . _. that Edes neither sent off nor received «erstood. There are only fourteen let- letters. Indeed, as appearances inditere In the Maori alphabet and the . ,. 14,1,, "Over there on the table." Constance glanced in the direction indicated, and saw a business-looking m«i*uiv address, "Robert D. Swan," wltfi \ _ y ' name and street number, which she knew, perfectly well. Turning it over she obserVed that it was sealed. "You can open It if you want to," said Mrs. Fry, whose principles always accommodated themselves to Mra, Hamilton's needs, satisfied that they could not go far wrong. Butf Mrs. Hamilton shrank from having a seal broken to a wrapper provided by the receiver, and, besides, what right had she with the correspondence of Primus Edes? Still she experienced a faint uprising of curiosity regarding the letter so close at hand, and yet so far from any revelation to, herself, unless Mrs. Fry had made herself acquainted with its contents. She had, as her next words informed her visitor. "I read it from beginnln' to end," she said, calmly; 'but, lor', it never was wrote to Edes in the world—nevn • most, who was xnott to blame, it was 1 safd. He seomed'ralherlo avoid her, she thought, and she reasoned it would do no h a m to be tiud to biro^ So whenever she went to Mrs. Fry's, or chanced to encounter him elsewhere,, she> woulfVinvartebly say a few words in a gentye, gracious way that to hina seemed divine. She was a musician of more than ordinary gifts, and when she chanced to hear him playing o n e evening is his room while she sat talking below with Mrs. Fry, she was charmed into forgetfulness of her errand by the Setter "k" is used in that language •AS frequently as the letter "e" in English.

Since the first visit to the ice cap of the South Pole was made, some fifty years ago, there has been a steady recession of the belt of some thirty miles, and it is argued that in the course of time it will be possible to make approach to the pole itself, and that the land in that vicinity miy even become inhabited CHANGED HUSBAND. Wife Made Wise Change in FnncL. Change of diet is the only way to really cure stomach and bowel trouble. A woman says: "My husband had dyspepsia when •j* were married and had suffered from it for several years. It was almost impossible to find anything he could eat without bad results. "I thought this was largely due to the u s e of coffee and persuaded him to discontinue it. He did so, and be- ;gan to drink Postum Food Coffee. The -change did him good from the beginning, his digestion improved; he suffered much less from his nervousness, and \.hen he added Grape-Nuts food to his diet he was soon entirely cured. "My friend, Mro. — , of Vicks- T>urg (my former home) had become a nervous wreck also from dyspepsia. Medicines had no effect, neither did travel help her. Or* my last visit home, some months ago, I persuaded her to -use Grape-Nuts food. She was in dergpalr, and consented- She stuck to it •until U restored her health so completely that she is now the most enthusiastic friend of Grape Nuts that I ever knew. She eats it with cream or dry, Just as it comes from the package— keeps it in her room and eata it wh<m» •ever she feels like it. "I began eating Grape-Nuts food, myself, when my baby was two months old, and I don't know what. I -should have done without it. M7 appetite was gone, I was weak and nervous and afforded but very little nourishment for the child. The Grape-Nuts food i of which I scon grew very fond, speedily set all this right again, and the baby grew healthful, rosy and beautiful as a mother could wish, He is two years old now and eats Orape- Nuts food himself, t wish every tired yott.AfmQther know o f thjr fo6d • that -Grape-Nuts would do her.'1"" """"•' Names given by Postum Co* -Battle •Greek, Mich.

"What did she write?" asked Mrs. Hamilton, led on. by her curiosity in spite of herself. "Oh, she was lonesome without him, an' wanted him to come home an' set- Whoever 'twas wrote to, ortor gone back to her, for you could see, plain as could be, she set her life by him." "Do you recollect the name signed to it?" "No, I don't. I've forgot it. Seem's if 'twas L or S it began with; jest one name it was.'^ "L, you say. Was it Lenora?" for that name would live in her consciousness forever, she thought. "Why, I did not know he could play like that?" she said, as the wonderful 8train s ceased. "Yes, an' It's only lately he's took it up," said Mrs. Fry; "so he says." "Is it possible!" said Constance. As she took her way homeward the passionate strains followed her until she reached her own door, and she knew that he must have opened his window so that she might hear him. Strange, Inexplicable man! Would he have left her as Vane did with those mysterious journeys all unexplained? Ah! but to doubt her husband now with the clods of suspicion weighting him down, with speculation clouding his sainted memory! Down on her knees went Constance at the thought, and she prayed fervently to be set right, to have taken from her all that interfered with her husband's memory! But even while she prayed sweet strains seemed to importune her to listen, and the sad, haunting eyes of Primus Edes to be looking into her very soul. The iacts of Mrs. Hamilton's presents to him had just become known in the neighborhood, and even reached to the ears of the Rev. Arthur Hammerly, who had lately been venturing to speculate how soon he might approach Mrs. Hamilton with some little attention whose, gentle office it might he tr> fix hpr regard upon hlnv self. Staring past them both at the gleaming marble, cated, Edes could not write a legible f letter if he tried. His education must have been terribly neglected, he once said to Mrs. Fry with an air of extreme candor, and this remark she repeated to the detective. "Oh, he's just what he seems, you may be sure of that," she said. "Then you are willing to help prove it, I suppose,"^said the wily detective, to Primus Edes, but to others, among "Yes, I am."7 "Well, then, if you ever find a scrap of writing, never so small, I want you to send it to me. I.will leave an addressed and stamped envelope," and he handed her an envelope prepared as he said. 'I'll do as you say, but it will be a long time before you see this wrapper, I guess," she answered, with.a smile at his folly. But strange to say the good woman was mistaken, for the day following Swan's departure Mrs. Hamilton called in to see her. She .found Mrs. Fry at work mending the lining to an old coat. "You find me to work. I've threatened an' threatened to take a day for the last month to mend up Edes' things. Why, his clo'es is all off his back. You never did see!" Mn, Fry was given to exaggeration. "An' to think," she said a moment later, "after all I said to that detective feller, thai I should find a letter In the linin' of the first coat I took to mend." "A letter!" . . . . . . . „•„ ^ . . . , *^.!**s> crjwrdji wgyjfctQ. the cower of the llnin'; went through the hole 4a H W*s*t1» the l e t t * . * "Twa'n't that, I'm pretty sure. I've a good mind to open that letter. I will, if you say so." "Oh, no; I have no right to it, anyway, and I am ashamed of my curiosity." And so the letter went away, freighted with a writing portentous in meaning and possibilities, not alone them the stately lady whose hand had touched that very packet. CHAPTER X. The Cashier's Return. Eight months had slipped away since the mysterious disappearance of whereabouts had been received. Grovedale, meanwhile, was busying itself, as small active villages are apt l o do, over a scandal of its own. And Constance was the subject of It. Strange that the high-bred, reserved woman should give cause of it; but she did. For her infatuation for the illiterate workman, known as Primus Edes, was only too evident to any one who chose to investigate the matter. She had cot meant to succumb to the strange fascination that Primus Edes from the first seemed to Impress upon her faculties by his fancied resemblance to her husband. It had grown insensibly, and after he brought her boy back to her and, tintderly carried him home, she felt tbat He heard of the strange infatuation said to exist in the mind of Mrs. Hamilton for a humble workman at her uncle's mill. Mr. Hammerly remembered him. A man of downcast, brooding habit, quiet and orderly of demeanor, but with nothing, it would seem, to attract the regard of a woman like Constance Hamilton. Stay! Did he not resemble her hus band siightlyl__Cej;tajnly he did. Mr Hammerly .could see it if nobody else did. If Mrs. Hamilton noticed him in any way it was because of this. Mr. Hammerly called to see her that day, and left her with a warmer pressure of the hand than usual. But her thoughts were otherwise occupied and she did not notice it. Thus matters stood. Constance swayed by a strong emotion; two men. by dreams of love and its fulfilment; a towering monument sometimes glistening 'neath the grudging winter sunlight, but oftener merely gleaming purely, frostily white, with its full inscription now, Vane Hamilton, and ready for the cemetery when spring should open; a carping, prosaic village, with buying and selling and eating and sleeping going on as it will to the end, while just outside its limits and that of the present an astounding event was walking straight toward it in the person of a tall, handsome, li^ht-haired man who alighted, unnoticed, from the train one afternoon in February. le was passing by the marb,lo 00 IB.

The athletic side of education is not forgotten in England any more than in this country. The bishop of Hereford tells of a conversation between a schoolmaster and a man who had just sent his son to a public school for the first time. The schoolmaster sympathized with the father, and remarked how difficult it must have been to find exactly the right thing to say to his son. ""Indeed, yeB," was the reply, "I couldn't make up my mind for a long time whether to advise him to take to bowling or battine." The Bennington Disaster. The explosion of the boilers of the U. S. gunboat Bennington in San Diego harbor resulted in killing sixty men and seriously wounding fifty others of the crew. Mismanagement, delay in making repairs-tothe-gaeboat^s-boikers, if not positive neglect, caused the disaster on the Benington. Every one whose business it is to know it, knew that the Bennington's boilers and furnaces were not in good condition and were weak. The records of the navy department show that there are reports on the subject as late as April 1+, of this year, wueu the boilers and furnaces were patched up and repaired. This raises the question whether the blame for the disaster lies on the officers of the ship or on the officers of the bureau of engineering. A board of inquiry, it Is expected, will bring out facts which will result in a court martial or, possibly, a number of court martials. On October 7 last, a month and seven days before Commander Young took, charge of the gunboat, Commander Kossuth Niles said in his report: "Should the condition of the boiler furnace grow worse, urgent necessity Diplomat *pr«*fully>Madt t * 6 * Mir 8ad Condition. the "Autobiography of Andrew ite" is a story of a former sen*' aqtrr of the United States who about the year 1840 was sent to* Russia as minister.

A reign of terror is established lu [Chicago union labor. The latest exploit of the "wrecking crew" in raid ing the election of the Chicago Fedei atlon of Labor Sunday, when seven armed men held up the judges witn revolvers, and afterward kicked and hammered Michael Donnelly to the. point of death, has put the seal of silence on labor leaders. They are now in abject dread of the, thuggery, practiced against strike-breakers. The "wrecking crew" is a band of hired assassins who have been engaged whenever the unions have had any "educational" work to do. It has been dispatched on the trail of strike-breakers and of the leaders of the reform movement In the federation. It has slugged men into insensibility, and in some instances has had murders laid \ dangerously near its dooT. Labor leaders admitted that some of the men who perpetrated the assault on Michael Donnelly were known to the judges of election and the watchers whom they held up before destroying the ballot boxes. Especially for Women. Champion, Mich., July 24tb.— (Special)— A case of especial interest to women is that of Mrs. A. Wellett, wife of a well known photographer here. It is best given in her own words. "I could not sleep, my feet were cold and my limbs cramped," Mrs. Wellett states. "I had an awful hard pain across my kidneys. I had to get up three or four times in the night. I was very nervous and fearfully despondent. "I had been troubled in this way for five years when I commenced to use Dgdd'8 Kidney Pills, _and_what they caused to come from my kidneys willharaiy stand description. "By the time I had finished one box of Dodd's Kidney Pills I was cured. Now I can sleep well, my limbs do not cramp, I do not get up in the night and I feel better than I, have in years.

WHY DO AMERICANS SUCCEED? W h y do we lead all the nations of the earth in prosperity, happiness and individual contentment? Why are Ave, u.s a pe6ple. regarded a s an invincible power of impregnable strength? And why do w e compel the admiration of the whole world—at times grudgingly given, but given, anyhow? It is because we are free and inde- . ondent in the truest meaning of the •\ -ords. We think Tor ourselves, act for ourselves, govern'ourselves more than the people of any other nation. We are absolutely self-reliant, a national trait that renders us independent of all other nations. Independence is the keynote of our supremacy. And this Is the reason why up-todate grocers and storekeepers appreciate the fact that Americans of both sexes have strong witls of their own-, and do not need interested advice. . Every up-to-date* grocer knows perfectly well that for\more than a. quarter of a century Lion Coffee has been the leading package coffee and a welcome drink at the tables of millions of American homes. He knows—and everybody else knows —that it has always kept its old friends and rteadily made new ones. Good, reliable, trustworthy grocers willingly acknowledge this, and all independent housekeepers will insist upon having Lion Coffee and no other, no matter what kind of an argument grocers of obstinate principles may advance. Americans want the best, and they get the best and purest in Lion Coffee.

He insisted upon the minutest attention to every detail of execution. Mother and daughter exchanged horrified glances and looked on pityingly.

Do B i r d s S l n v f A naturalist has written to prove that birds are not singers, but whistlers; that is to say, that the notes are produced through a tube—to be technical, through the slit known as the glottis— not by the help of vocal cords. But the whole distinction Is beside the point. Any one who has seen a bird singing will have seen both the vibrations In his throat and the variations in the extent to which he opens and closes his beak or mandibles; and, given these accompaniments, together with the production of an Inarticulate language, whistling and singing become Identical terms suggesting a distinction. People are accustomed to the idea that only a few species of birds, such as the parrot and the jackdaw, can be taught, but In wild life almost „allJ>lrds_ are mimics to some extent, and probably more of them than people realize could be taught to imitate human sounds,— Pearson's Weekly.

But In the seventeenth century clubs began to spring up like mushrooms. There was the Calves' HeadT^club, whose members met and dined off calves' heads to show their contempt fbr the decapitated Charles I. Then came the Kit-Kat club, which, according to Addison, took its name from a mutton pie. One Christopher Kat, a pastry cook of Shire lane, was a distinguished constructor of mutton pies, and his productions were called Kit- Kats.

Roberts Prods British Lion. The direct, unqualified statement that the British army is now as unfitted and unprepared for war as it was before the struggle with the Boers, was the bomb that Lord Roberts threw in the house of lords. The veteran field marshal in a deliberate and carefully prepared speech told the peers that he believed as a practical soldier that Great Britain's military forces are totally inadequate to uphold the empire as a first-class world power. Lack of fitness in the men and poor training were mentioned as contrib utory causes to this condition. The speech was called for by Premier Balfour's statement regarding the impossibility of an invasion. Lord Roberts said the necessity of being able to repel an attack on England itself was not all, but that the country must deal with a question of infinitely great importance^—the question of the IKe or death of the empire, the issue of which dependsd upon Great Britain being ready to defend her eastern possessions and at the same time take part in any affair nearer home, either of which necessitated the. placing in the field of an army as large and ef ficient as that of any of the European countries The Canai "Knockers." President Roosevelt Wednesday afternoon turned the vials of his invective loose on the "knocking'' which is greeting the efforts of the United States in building the Panama canal; bitterly scored the men who have come back In panic from the isthmus with scare stories about health conditions there; prophesied confidently that the canal would be completed to the everlasting credit of American genius and preseverance, and lauded Gen. Leonard Wood for his sanitary achievements in Cuba in a way that suggested that the president may have in mind a similar task for his friend at Panama. The address was delivered before the Associated Physicians of Long Island. Attired in a suit of rough linen and wearing a broad-brimmed Panama hat, the president arrived at Oyster Bay high school, wheVo the meeting was hiUL.ut 3:15 p. m. After the president' had retired, the t session unanimously elected him and Gen. Wood members of the society. Nothing s e e m s to me so ciever As the poetry I write. Shakespeare?

Hendricks are contained in the testimony taken in the state insurance department's Investigation of the Equitable Life Assurance society. "Senator Chauncey M. Depew testified that the Depew Improvement Co., in which he was interested, obtained a loan from the Equitable of $250,000 on property which the state insurance department valued at only $150,000. He admitted that neither principal nor interest had been paid, and that the Equitable had been forced to foreclose. "He admitted that as a member of the executive committee of the Equitable, he had not advised this loan, but had voted for it. He confessed to making a promise that the Equitable should be made whole, but in the same breath said that promise was not legally binding. "Jacob H, Schiff, confronted with records of the TSquitable that Kuhn, Loeb & Co. had sold a large amount of Union Pacific preferred stock to the society, swore that these records were false. He confessed that he had been a dummy dliectui, but said that since the Equitable scandal developed, he had bought five shares of the stock paying $2,000 a share." A WOMAN'S M l t l l i r .

Danish physicians have formed a temperance society, and have issued a warniug, setting forth the effect of alcohol on the human body, which is posted in all the railway statious of the country. The fat in beer drinkers is composed of these albuminous residues which, having been alcoholized, resist the action of the various solvents in the system, and therefore being neither fit for use in the body nor reducible to a form in which they can be excreted, they have to be stored away so as to prevent obstruction to the circulation; hence so long as there is room they are packed away, much of them under the skin, and thus the fat and healthy appearance of the beer drinker. When there is no more room under the skin, the fat has to be deposited in the interior of the body, and hence the common disease of fatty degeneration of the heart, kidneys, etc.— Dr. Gustafson.

ThT vote was exceedingly heavy. Pen pie generally estimated that 16,000 to 20,000 votes would be polled, but none thought that 24,000 ballots would be cast on the proposition. The great outpouring of voters was due to a great extent to the big machine which the saloon leaders had built up and which sailed under the name of the Los Angeles Business Men's Association. The saloons kept in the background. Never before had one-half the work been done in an election in Los Angeles. Day after day, the daily papers contained quarter, half and full page advertisements, not only of the liquor dealers operating under the alias of the Los Angeles Business Men's Association, but of the Anti-Saloon League as well.

"I supposo you are convinced now?" said Grace, with a confidence she did not feel, as he stopped at her seat. "Ho says he knows the real Miss Burton," said the conductor, eying her sharply. There was an odd little gasp of anger as Miss Burton sprang to her feet and unsteadily made her way down the aisle, the conductor following. "Jimmy Garrison," she demanded, "do you mean to tell this conductor that you don't know me?" "Never said It," said Jimmy calmly. "He asked me if I could Identify Miss Burton, and I said I knew Miss Burton." "Well?" she said In a puzzled-tone. "Possibly," explained Jimmy blandly, 'lie might have gathered from toy tone that I did not see Miss Burton on the car." "You mean," she corrected, "that you wanted to make me ask you to identify me." "Yes," said Jimmy solemnly, offering a ring. "I thought you might speak to me."

Before each plate, on the long table stood a characteristic favor, and the laughter was long and loud when he picked up the tiny sliver and gilt cigarette holder fashioned ln the form of an automobile that stood at his plate. The laughter became a,shriek when, on lifting the lid, he discovered a five dollar bill in stage money. As bravely as he could he faced th* storm of laughter and Jeering remarks which followed, but pot until he caught sight of Howell at the other end of the table, fairly convulsed with mirth, did he discover the secret of his undoing, for beside the joker, red and unsmiling, was his fare of the morning.

Senator McGinley has been a figure in Detroit politics and in the criminal law practice since he moved there at the close of the legislative session of 1895. Before that he was active in the politics of the Thumb, and was twice elected to the senate from Minden City, serving in the sessions of 1893 and 1895. He was born in New York in 1856, was married at Hague, N.

The engine of the regular Pere Marquette passenger train 4OE—Saginaw, leaving Bay Citv at 8:40 a. m,; left the rails four miles south of the latter city while going at a rate of about forty miles an hour, and Engineer Alex. Nelderstadt, one of the oldest employes of the Pere Marquette, was killed. Fireman John H. Quirk, of Saginaw, was slightly injured. The regular train from Saginaw arrived half an hour later and passengers were transferred. The body of Niederstadt was taken to -Saginaw, where his home was. A woman in one of the coaches was severely injured by being thrown against the back of a seat, but she-was taken from the train by friends and the railroad officials were unable to learn her name.

Either the gift is a natural one or is acquired at the expense of much hard work. The cashier of a downtown bank who is noted tor his memory for names and faces got talking the other day about his faculty and confessed that it had been acquired with much labor. "When I was a young fellow," he said, 'I was secretary to the president of a New Jersey bank, and I made up my mind that a good memory for names and faces would be a valuable asset, and set to work to supply what nature had not given me. I invested $50 in an elaborate system of mnemonics, and the first opportunity I had to use it was when my employer tfsent me to a hardware store on a personal errand. v*8' * * V GEORGIA SAYINGS. : <**• «? n * *F. • '• » <** * • T " • £veTy«**i thinks that judgment day Is, Aorta* a**y n*fetttdn't»be in any hurry about repenting. a>.». a — {ijLat us cont^»uerto hope fo» the best, and, some of these days, we may find '* "M^ system consisted In, aispcjat. a little time to work for it. ing the man in my mind with 'some f isiapl*. aitiate *: «anayUd ^ - g ^ a m f * n t opercOCMttflB*W as n o t * trade and prefixing or suffixing a let- l n g t 0 t n e song of the man who whlater or more as necessary; POT in- ties on the highway to *ood tfmes. stance, Sanders the grocer would be ] _ . associated in my mind with sand, and I would of course remember to add the three letters needed to form his name.

The sudden and serious illness of about a dozen students and professors of Alma College, all having been brought low with typhoid fever, has caused physicians to investigate the cause of such a remarkable occur; rence during the past few days. During the investigations the perplexity was deepened by the report from students at their homes throughout the state that many more were victims of the epidemic. The fact that all have fallen ill at about the same time has led the doctors to pronounce the disease the result of the commencement dinner at the college, at which 250 people were present. The ice cream may have been polluted with the deadly germs. Students at Princeton and elsewhere, who were visiting their alma mater at Hie timtj, have not escaped the workings of the pest-germs.

She knew many months later, but not then. "There ain't no light color to the roots on't," said Mrs. Fry, striving to attract her regard. No, there was not. The hair showed no Indication of having been colored. "Perhaps he attends to it every day," said Mrs. Hamilton, arousing "Tow may count on Mr. Hawkee opinion as reliable," said Mr. Hollis. "Is it.what you expected to learn?" "Hardly. I suspect the one who sent it to me thought it might be colored," replied Swan. The detective answered Mrs. Hamilton's inquiries in person and he could see she was relieved somewhat when she learned what Hawkes had said. Indeed, she told him so. At his request she told him the few facts she had learned regarding Primus Edes, which, however, did not appear to Impress him much until the matter of the marked shirts came up. "I suspect such things—always did," he said, "for I never knew people of herseK and shaking off-the occult in- | tha port tn count in a suspected per fluencea of the room. "Well, then, the hair dye must be 'round handy. Shall I look In the trunk? The lock is broke, I see." But Mrs. Hamilton stood Rooking out the window and apparently did not hear her. for she did not reply. Mr. Fry lifted the cover and began to rummage the trunk. "Not a thing here that would color a rat's whiskers," she said. "You look." "Oh, no," said Constance, shrinking. *'You are right, I presume." "Well, here's one of them marked •shirts I told you about. Ain't that H. A.?" Constance came eagerly forward and looked at the initials put on with inflellble ink. "Yes, you are right. The letters are H. A. If they indicate his name it can -riftf, h«* Primus BdeS. "Wall, you see there ain't no dye- •stuff in the room, an' fio signs of none," said Mrs. Fry, straightening the room, a little preparatory to leaving it. ""Do you want to look any more?" "No," said Constance, rising from lier seat at the window as if to follow her from the room. But as she passed the bureau she deftly extracted from the - hair-brush the few strands that <clung there,-andwith them hiddeu in son. Guilty people, or those with anything to conceal, don't give one name and carry about articles of clothing marked with contradictory initials." "I should think your reasoning good," said Constance, much impressed. "Perhaps Dan Fry h right in thinking that some one gave him the articles." "I will find out if I can," said the detective. And he did to his own satisfaction that very day, for he learned that Dan had asked the question already, and been answered to all appearances truthfully. "A Btrangergave them to him," he said,. "He is a harmless person, you can see that," said Swan, "and an ignorant one. Dan Fry says he cannot write nor read, but is anxious to learn. I saw a copy that Dan wrote for him and the fellow tried to follow. Here It is. All capitals! Down here he has put some of the letters together: Your name, as I live, Mrs. Hamilton! I remember you signed your letter Constance Hamilton." "Yes," said Constance, woefully ashamed of the miserable scrawl which told so much to the keen-eyed detective.

Indeed, the time was coming when she was to feel inexpressibly grateful to him. • * • • • One day Perley did not return as nsual from school, and for some time {.his mother was not alarmed, as she supposed he had called to see his friend Edes, but by stx o'clock Mrs. Hamilton experienced a sudden thrill of fear that he had not returned. She went to the mill at once and to her uncle's office, but he had not seen Perley. "Where does Mr. Edes work, the one who boards at Mrs. Fry's? Perley may be with him." "Edes? Oh, he takes away from the saw. I will go with you." It was the first time she had ever spoken to him, she thought, for all this wild questioning of her heart and of other people. But it was but for an instant this occurred to her, for she was not a little alarmed about Perley. "I will go out and Stunt him up," he said, putting on his coat that lay near f-en-a-pUe of shavings. "I saw him this morning, not since then." "Oh, if he should have fallen Into the water!" cried Constance. "Have you any idea where he can be?" "No, but I will find him," he said, confidently. "I will find him." Mr. Carter looked at him In some surprise. "Well, I hope you can get him home before nightfall. He may be somewhere in the neighborhood with the other children." Inquiries were made through the village, but uo trace of the little fellow could be found. Nothing bad been seen of him since he stood in the yard at the close of school; but one little girl professed to have heard him say he was going after beechnuts. With this clue a company of men and boys at nightfall started to scour the woods with lanterns and torches.

Mrs. Hamilton's first act after returning home and removing her wraps was to write to Swan and send him the three strands of hair, neatly gummed to a paper. "The hair," she wrote, "was combed from the head of a person resembling my husband in some respects. Do not mistake me. I do not believe the man to be Mr. Hamilton, but I wish to know that he is not. Please submit the hair to a specialist in such matters, if such a one can be found, and learn whether it has ever been dyed." Swan knew of no specialist in such matters, but he felt convinced that a practiced dealer in human hair might give him po4ntar,of elucidation. Accordingly he went to the large establishment of Springer & Hollis on Washington street, Boston, and as it •chanced was fortunate.enough to see Mr. Hollis and state his errand to him. "There is one person in this building on whose judgment you may rely. Ambrose, tell Mr. Hawkes to step this wax." a moment a quiet, gentlemanly lual made his way toward them, '.Hollis showed him the strands ', after introducing the detective bating his errand.

"Ask what you wish," she answered with an effort. "Then perhaps you will tell me whether he seems to regard you with more than ordinary interest?" "I am afraid he does," and Mrs. Hamilton mentioned the fact of his having watched her house many times, but forbore to apeak of his glances at church, though not that he had touched her little girl's hair. Swan smiled a little, but looked puzzled. "I should dismiss the matter from my thoughts If I were you, madam," he said, after a Httle thought. "This nan evidently has no connection with the subject of your husband's disappearance. He has seen you and admired you, that is all." A simple solution of a great mystery, thought Constance, if only she could believe iL It looked plausible after she had thought of it awhile! and she was indignant with herself that she had allowed so slight a' matter to ruffle her, when she was already borne down by such heavy burdens. Primus Edes did not come to her house now. She never saw him except at church, and then he did not glance at her. But he did at Perley, and one Sabbath the boy surprised her by leaving her side and walking off with Primus .Edes. When reprimanded b'y his mother he only said: "Oh, I know him. I've seen him lots* and I like him. He has made me * hi*e, ajflfiMfrJhe?! A|,jpp#fc4aa •» ship for ase." "But is? he a good man, Perley?" asked she1, seriously. "Oh, yea. He says I must a&ind my gv*»N.. -AIM. »•£». . . . , any sound she might hear from the direction of the woods. Clare had cried herself to sleep on the sofa, and Mr. Carter walked nervously about the yard and down to the edge of the woods a score of times. "I wonder where Edes went. I didn't see him with the men," he said to Constance. "Did you not?" she asked, lifting a white-face to his for a moment. "He seemed confident he could find Perley, uncle." "So he did. Constance. Well, the night is warm, and Perley won't be apt to suffer much except in his feelings," said Mr. Carter as cheerfully as he could. "Oh, but my baby cut in the dark woods all alone!" and a rush of tears checked her words. Mr. Carter choked at the thought and started off again down the street, this time fojlowed bj Constance, who fancied she saw lights coming toward the village". ' Yes, lights, and shouts, and cheers. "They have found him," cried Mf. Carter, hurrying away, and Constance, faint with sudden joy, though she almost feared to give it room, was forced to loiter for a moment. Not many rods away now came the tramp of forty men and boys who held their torches high above their heads and made the village ring with a prolonged shout as soon as they left the woods and entered it. Mrs. Hamilton, with wildly beating heart, was at the Nicholas II. is at Peterhof, on the Gulf of Finland. An angular, ugly tower, painted muddy yellow, topped by an eagle-crowned flagstaff, is all that can be seen of his abode. All that can be seen of his court is an unromantle individual in shirtsleeves, brushing his hair before a looking glass.ia_ the tower window. It needs keen eyes and a field glass to see even these. The shore at Peterhof is muddy, stone strewn, flat and overgrown with weeds. To bathe one must go several hundred yards from the shore. Straight in front of the palace, running half a mile into the sea, is a flimsy wooden pier, and on this pier—one at the end and one half way along—are two blue-roofed bathing boxes used by the czar's Immediate family. From the shore the whole process can be seen; and Peterhof takes advantage of the occasion by crowding to the waters' edge and exclaiming excitedly when the late grand duchesses trot along the pier to the nearest bathing box. The precautions taken for the czar's safety are wonderful. Workingmen whose antecedents are unknown are not allowed to settle either in old or new Peterhof.

DOG INCAPABLE OF DECEIT. Nature Such That He Cannot Hide His Emotions. "There is one peculiar thing about dogs," remarked a well known local fancier and huntsman, "and that Is you never saw one pant and wag his tall at the same time. A dog is not capable of a double emotion. He can't growl and wag his" tail at the same time, for it is impossible for him to be mad at one end and glad at the other. "If a dog is glad to see his master he will bark and wag his tail. If he wants to get into the house he will paw at the door, whine and wag his tail, but they are all symptoms of one and the same emotion. But if his master opens the door he will ceast. to show anxiety immediately by whin ing and will show pleasure only bj the wagging of his tail.

Post -Houston entrance to the bridge, made darker by the flashing torches beyond its range. As she entered it she saw not far away a man with something in his arms, who no sooner saw Mrs. Hamilton than he said, In a voice so overcharged with feeling that It vibrated upon her nerves like an electric shock, "I found him. I knew I should. He lay fast asleep with his head on his arm, in a hollow shut in by tall trees. But I found him." "Oh, thank you, thank you! My baby, my baby!" taking the boy, 3till sleepy, into her arms and covering his face with kisses* "Poor little darling, to get lest!" "No one could find him but me," said the man again, with his childlike air, as if longing to be praised again and again, an air strangely at variance with his thought-seamed brow, and well shaped head. After this. It was impossible to one of so grateful a disposition as Constance to be unmindful of Primus Edes. She felt that he had a claim on her kindness which it. was a ~ pleasure as well as a duty to requite. With one so absent-minded it would be easy. she. fancied, to make changes in his surroundings which he would never notice except in a vague way, or suspect that they came through her. By gradual evolution, therefore, his room at .Mrs. Fry's came to wear the dainty look that white drapery, pictures and books could give it. Next, as cool weather approached, a stove mysteriously found its way there, and a comfortable dressing gown, or loose coat, if he chose to-call It-that, waa found hanging in the closet* (To be continued.) o Destruction of Karsakorsk. An eye-witness of the Japanese bombardment of Karsakorsk wires that the Russian forts were silenced on July 7, after the exchange of a very few shots. The pier3, warehouses and other buildings were set on fire and the conflagration was reflected by the foggy atmosphere, converting the sky into one mass of blood red color. The Japanese army landed amidst the fire, which was fast spreading to the forts. The infantry quickly captured the forts, from the tops of which the bewildered inhabitants were seen fleeing in every direction, carrying what property they could remove. The fires were not subdued for over 4S hours. . The sunken cruiser N'ovik, which was destroyed by the Japanese at Karsakorsk last August, and the ruined town and forts are sad witnesses of the rapidity with which destruction rs wrought in modern warfare.

"Well, yes, boss, we duz, all 'cept Grape-Nuts, cause that don't look like the • others and people know 'zackly what Grape-Nuts looks like. But there's 'bout a dozen different ones named on the bill of fare and they are all thin rolled flakes so it don t make any difference which one a man calls for, we }U3t take out the order from one box."

Tbeso concerns after a precarious existence, nearly all failed, leaving ehousandsof boxes of their foods in mills and warehouses. These were in several instances bought up for a song by speculators and sold out to grocers and hotels for little or nothing. The process of working oft this old stock has been slow. One will see the names on menus of flaked foods that went out of business a year and a half or two years ago. In a few cases where the abandoned factories have been bought up. there is an effort to resuscitate the defunct, and by copying the style of advertising of Grane-Nuta, seek to "influence people to purchase. But the public has been educated to the fact that all these thin flaked foods are simply soaked wheat or oat3 rolled thin and dried out and packed. They are not prepared like Grape- Nuts, i i which the thorough baking and other operations which turn the starch part of the wheat and barley into sugar, occupy many hours and result in a food ^o digestible that small infants thrive on it, while it also contains the selected elements of Phosphate of Potash and Albumen that unite in the body to produce the soft gray substance In brain and nerve centers. There's a reason for, Grape- Nuts, and there have been many imitations, a few of the article itself, but many more of the kind and character of the advertising. Imitators are always counterfeiters and their printed and written statements cannot be expected to be different than their goods. This article is published hy the Poetum Co. at Battle Creek.

May Weddtn*a. May weddings are supposed by ma»y persons to be unlucky. It is a heritage from the ancient Romans. A May bride, says Ovid, is short lived, h i s txplauation being that the month included the celebration of the Lemurla !n honor of the dead. . Apart from any svll omen, such a time of mourning would interfere with the bathing and toilet arrangements that were proper preliminaries t o weddings. Plutarch suggests that, a s April was the month of Venus and June that of Juno, to select May w a s t o slight those nuptial goddesses and that June, as the mouth of the young (Juniores), was preferable to May, the month of the old (majores).

Dan never left his pew until Mrs. Hamilton passed down the aisle after service, from natural obeisance to her superior claims on Ma family and personal admiration as well. As she came gracefully down the aisle in her lustreless black silk gown and black bonnet the stranger gazed eagerly into her face with a pair of eyes so like, yet so unlike, her husband's, that she grew faint for a moment But she rallied instantly agd_jLOdded j^leagantly to Dan while she allowed her gaze to rest a moment on his companion, ••—— As Clare brushed by the stranger fNKt oat his hand and touched her curls in a lingering, caressing fashion that ansased. and offended Dan, who, how- -**far, conld say nothing is church.

And again dawned before her intelligence the sure if slight resemblance he bore to her husband. Sunday he was at church again* and as for one moment their eyes met* Constance fancied a new intelligence | in his, as if he would establish a connection between them. She immediately decided that henceforth the curtains of her sitting-room should be drawn as usual. But what did it mean, that look? Constance pondered over it during the week, it was so strange and inexpli cable.

The week following it was hermetically closed, but Constance more .than once caught a glimpse of the dejected figure, and she thought of speaking to her . uncle' to desire the man to go away. One evening he stood outside in a pouring rain gazing at the house long after the curtains were down, until Mrs. Hamilton grew deeply vexed with his folly. "It must be stopped," she said to herself, decidedly, and she concluded to go over and talk with Mrs. Fry. Perhaps she could learn something which would explain his strange behavior. , . _ A jnanjsat by_the stove holding a little boyT while MrsC Fry'HSusfTeTr about frying doughnuts.

"If he should be sick let me know, and I wlH send over anything you may lack for his comfort To tell the truth, this man interests me strangely, for tn some way he reminds me of my husband, does not he you?" "Bless your soul, no,, not one mite!" said Mrs. Fry, turning a wondering gaze upon her visitor. , "The resemblance is not striking, perhaps, but.it exists," Bald Constance, decidedly. "Well, good-by!" "Good-by!" said Mrs. Fry at the front door, where she had accompanied her. "Well, now!" shutting it after her, "whoever heard the ,beat of that? Looks like witch work!

As she drew the curtains at nightfall before lighting the lamps she saw a man standing directly under a tall tree that stood In the yard, which was fenceleas, aad about a rod from the window. He appeared to be looking di- -reetiy la, htit a* soon as the curtains werb drawn he shrank back, slowly "turned away, and walked down the street.

The man resumed the jingling of his keys and the child was quiet. Finally the hot lard kettle was put away, aad with a capable swoop of her arm the boy transferred from the man's arm to her own, and a moment later Mrs. Fry appeared in the sitting-room where her visitor was. "A, poor creetur as ever was," she said to Mrs. Hamilton, with a backward sweep to her head, indicating the man in the room she had left. "What's he be'n an' gone an' done but git cold a-etayin* out nights, an' me that's got everything to do has got to take care on 'im."' "Who is he?" "Ob, bi;s one of the mill men that boards here; b'en here most three weeks." "What sort of a man is he?" "Well, he ain't quite so bright as some men, mebbe, but he seems dreadful good-hearted. He'll do anything I ask him, hold Johnny by the hour, but if I didn't put him in his arms straight he'd just as quick hold him upside down. I'm good to him. I always be to every one that boards here." "Do you think he colors his hair or wears a wig?" asked Constance, with sjdden recollection of her first agitation at seeing him at church. "No, Indeed; he don't care enough for bis looks to color bis hair, an' most certain he haintvno w^g on, for I ssa him comb it every day by the little glass la ^he*itdhei ttodre." - If^s. Hamilton did act lmmedlstely .... CHAPTER »X^ Light or Dark? ~ Was it witch work, the sort to which Mrs. Fry referred, that kept Primus Edt» so much In the mind of Mrs. Hamilton during the week, or some esoteric influence of which she was alone conscious and of so subtle a nature that she,OawuSOt entertain it? Did she think her husband, Vane Hamilton, would sneak back tQ Oroyedale, disguised, go to work as a laborer in his own mill, board with a woman, he knew, and attract attention to himself by watcliing hU own house? Could anything be more foolish, .more futiie\ if concealment was desired?' If not desired, the course was palpably more foolish still.' Constance knew «H "t*W ' *<*i Jfcf was strangely fascinated- by thw-man s personality, so like her husband's, she imagined.

Kushequa, Pa., July 10.—(Special V— In this section of Pennsylvania there is a growing belief that for such Kidney Diseases as Rheumatism and Lame Back there is only one sure cure and that is Dodd's Kidney Pills. This belief grows from such cases, as that of Mrs. M. L. Davison of this place. She tells the story herself as follows: "I have suffered from Rheumatism for thirty years and find that Dodd's Kidney Pills have done me more good than any medicine I have ever taken. I was also bothered with Lame Back and I can only say that my back hasn't bothered me since I took Dodd's Kidney Pills." Considering that Mrs. Davison only took two boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills, the result would be considered wonderful if it were not mat others are re=- porting similar results daily. Kushequa is fast arriving at a verdict that "Dodd's Kidney Pills are the one sure cure for Rheumatism.'* HIS IDEA OF BANKRUPTCY. Eleotre-Piated Lace, i . Electro-plated lace may yet be the fashion.

But, you see, I am just a little uneasy." "Sure enough,- an' no wonder; though as you say he don/t most likely mean no harm. Wall, Dan'll see to that, Mis' Hamilton." '^ ~ "Yes, Dan is very kind; and tell him, please, not to let Mr. Edes know that I said anything about it." ^ "Oh, Dan will know what to do." "And now, Mrs. Fry, I want to tell, you something that I don't want you to mention to any one. I have perfect confidence in you." '». "An' way you may have. Wild horses wouldn't git out of me anything you didn't want told." "Well, it is this. I am constantly haunted by this man's resemblance to j my husband, though no one else seems to see It.

"I want to be sure of it, and then, the resemblance will not trouble me* Doesn't he color his hair? I will sit here, and you look for a bottle of hair dye in his room." "I thiuh you had better come, too, and then you will be sure that I've searched thorough," said Mrs/Fry, and Constance, though not without hesitatation, arose and followed'her to the apartment ocenpied^by Primus Edes.

XI* ht coatiitttd.1 Indian Native Evidently Had Painful Experience* A-hative of^India, who had lost a large amount of money through the insolvency of an English merchant, ex-. plained the English Insolvency laws as follows: "In Burma the'white man who wants to become Insolvent goes into business, and gets lots of goods, and does not pay for them. He then gets all the money -he can together* say 80,000 rupees (a rupee Is,„33 cents), and puts all of it except 100 rupees away where no one can find it. With the 100 rupees he goes to a Judge of the court and telle him he wants to become bankrupt. The judge then calls all the lawyers together, likewise all the men to whom the white man owes money, and he says: This man is insolvent, but he wishes to give you all that he has got, so be has asked me to divide this 100 rupees among you all.' The judge thereupon gives the lawyers 90 rupees, and the remaining 10 rupees to the other men. Then the insolvent goes home to England." QhowinQ Wifely Devotion. The Dahomians greet their husband with wonderful dignity; they prostrate themselves, throw sand on their heads and never tbink of rising until their husbands make the command. The Tongans are more strenuous in their expression; they tear their hair and even beat their breasts. WANTED TO SLEEP Curious That a Tired Preacher Should Have Such Desire. A minister speaks of the curious effect of Grape Nuts food on him and how it has relieved him. —"You will doubtless understand how the suffering with indigestion with which I used to be troubled made my work an almost unendurable burden, and why it was that.after my Sabbath duties had been performed, sleep was a stranger to my pillow till nearly daylight. "I had to be very careful as. to what I ate, and even with all my care I experienced poignant physical distress after meals, and my food never satisfied me. "Six months have elapsed since I began to use Grape-Nuts food, and the benefits I have derived from it are very definite. I no longer suffer from indigestion, and I began to Improve from the time Grape-Nuts appeared on our tabic. I find that by eating a dish of it after my Sabbath work is done (and I always do so now) my nerves are quieted and rest and refreshing sleep are ensured me.

Nothing could better show how a railroad works for the interest of the localities which it serves. A main dependence of the farmers of the Aroostook region is toe potato crop, aggregating annually eight to ten million bushels, which find a market largely in Boston and the adjacent thickly settled regions of New England. The competition of chfap water transportation from Maine to all points along the New England coast keeps railroad freight,, rates OIL these potatoes .always at a very low level. Potatoes are also a considerable output of the truck farms of Michigan, their normal market being obtained in and. through Detroit and Chicago and other communities of that region. Not manr.years ago.favoring sun and rains bought!"a trenjeridous yield of potatoes from the Michigan fields. At normal\ rates anar t prices there would haye been, a gjurt of _the Customary markets and the potatoes would have rotted on the farmB.! To help the potato,growers the railroads from Michigan made unprecedentediy' low rates on potatoes to every Teachable market, even carrying them in large quantities to a place so remote as Boston. The Aroostook growers had to reduce the price on their potatoes and even then could not dispose of them unless the Boston and Maine Railroad "reduced lt» already lew rate, which it did. By means of these low rates, making possible low prices, the potato crops oi Dotn Michigan and Maine were fnally marketed. eats potatoes, and that Everybody year eyerybody had . all the potatoes he wanted. While the Michigan railroads made rates that would have been ruinous to the railroads, had they been applied to the movement of all potatoes at all times, to ail places, they helped their patrons to find markets then. The Boston and Maine Railroad suffered a decrease in its revenue from potatoes, but it enabled the Aroostook farmers to market their crop and thereby to bbtain money which they spent for the varied supplier which tru railroads brought to themT H~tlre making of rates were subject to governmental adjustment such radical and prompt action could never have been taken, because it is well established that if. a rate be once reduced by a railroad company it cannot be restored through the red tape of governmental procedure. If the Michigan railroads and the Boston and Maine Railroad had been subjected to governmental limitation they would have felt obliged to keep up their rates as do the railroads of Francs and England and Germany under governmental limitation and let the potatoes r o t - £ nan7«.

Much has been written in magazines and papers regardiug this but it must be seen to be appreciated. Briefly, two w'heelpits 180 feet deep were sunk in the solid reck and to these wheelpits an immence quantity of water is led by a great inlet. The water is dropped in mammoth steel penstocks, at the bottom of which is a turbine which develops the power. The water after serving its mission is carried away under the city of Niagara Falls in a tunnel over 7,000 feet long to discharge at the bottom of the gorge. The output ol" this company is now 85,000 horse power delivered from two enormous wheelpits and before the summer is over this amount will be increased by 20,000 more, most of which is already contracted for.

When the spout 1« made with the blowhole clear above the surface Of the water It appears like a sudden jet of steam from a boiler. Wheu effected, as it sometimes is, before the blowhole reaches the surface, a low fountain as from a street fire plug is formed, and when the hole is close to the surface at the moment a little water la sent up with the tall jet of steam. The cloud blown up does not disappear at once, - but haugs a little while and Is often seen to drift a short distance with the wind. ' WANTED-The Subscriptions due on the DISPATCH. When one visits the plant and is taken into the solid rock a distance of 140 or more feet, and looks up at the penstocks,.seven feet in diameter and 140 feet high full of " pent up Niagara" a person can not help wondering what might happen if a break should occur in the pipe. When we consider that the entire tunneling was done through solid rock we can begin to conceiVe what a_stupenduou.s undertaking it'was and yet it is only in its infancy. On the Canadian side there is one already in operation and others in the course of construction which will be as large if not largei than the American. It is conjectured that if this work continues the time will come when so much of the water of Niagara river will be diverted that the American falls at least will become extinct as they are shallow. The stores near the falls are the same as at any resort—chiefly for the sale of eatables, drinkables and souvenirs. At Niagara proper, or what used to be known as "SusDension Bridge" there are many stores that handle staple goods of all kinds, At Niagara Falls is a branch of the well known Knox 5 and 1U cent stores and is under the management of Brock Cole, son'in law of VVm.

The British had had possession of that coast for thirty years, but niore In name than tn fact. Their authority was supreme wherever settlements had been made or ports opened, but up the numerous rivers and back from the coast the native chiefs held full sway. Oyampoo was a man about forty years old and chief of the Adauiawa tribe. He began making war on other tribes as soon as he had been elected chief, and at forty he .was cock of the walk for 500 miles around. In twelve years he had licked nine tribes and brought them under his rule. Traders had visited him and sold him firearms and tfraght him how to use them, and deserters from whale ships and men-of-war had found refuge with him and taught his troops the white man's drill and built forts to defend his capital on the water side. Cannon and ammunition were wanted for those forts, and so one day when a French Survey brig came up the river, she was seized and disarmed and her crew made to shift the gnns and instruct the natives in their use. Oyampoo wasn't cruel, but he was ambitious. He had just got his forts In working order when the British government sent a gunboat up the river to knock them.about bis ears and humbh? his puide. It wasn't a success. He sank the craft in half an hour, and such of her crew as survived were held prisoners for months. lie expected the British to fight, and there was a glad song in his heart as he saw their ships in imagination saiTihglip the-muddy old Calabar to give him battle. Within a distance of forts and S i was tbfil what would be expected of him in the future, and his written declaration was taken that he would forever bear allegfance to the British crown. In three short days he was reduced from a boastful and powerful ruler to a contrite and badly frightened subject, and the lesson was one he never forgot. Two years later he was picking up shells at Cape Coast and selling them to traders for a living, and when he happened to get in the way of a white man he was kicked aside like an old shoe. |f.

The British had their hands full elsewhere on the const just then, but they finally got around to take the king's case under advisement. All needed particulars were learned from trader* and deserters, and when an expedition finally set out it knew what it was up against. Oyampoo had. posed as a strategist. and he had had the advice of other posers, and yet they made a fatal mistake. All the forts had been built on narrow islands in the river, with a deep channel flowing on each side, and the batteries in front of the town were protected only by flimsy earthworks and could be taken in reverse. The depth of the river was well known, and the exact location of each fort was mapped out.

FREE TRIAL, 2,000 infantry, made up the expedition, and when it had gathered at the mouth of the river Oyampoo gent word down that he would demolish it on sight. As a matter of form he was asked to surrender, and he returned word that he would have the ears of the commander of the expedition. | It was thought best to make an object lesson of Oyampoo and to make a fair stand up fight of it. The expedition, therefore, advanced up the river with wind and tide one morning about 8 o'clock, and, word was sent to the king of its coming. Salvos were fired and hurrahs given, and by and by the head of the line appeared. Two of the fighting ships took one channel and two the other, and in this way all the forts were taken in reverse. The transports did the same, and the ritio tire poured into the embrasures, and the roar of the forts was enough alone to drive the natives from the guns. Of the fifteen mounted cannon not more than three were flred more than once. The Mg shells from the fighting ships knocked the earthworks to pieces and dismounted the guns, and the rifle Are mowed the defenders down by the score. The men-of-war sailed up to the city without a halt and with only three men killed, and, anchoring in froat of the capital, they knocked it into smithereens within half an hour. What, huts were not knocked to pieces were reduced to aslies in the conflagration. The natives did not run away like cowards. On the coutrary, they fought in a way to compel admiration and yet without a show. When Uesh and blood coiNd stand it no longer they broke and fied. and the victors landed and finished the chapter. It was three days before. Oyampoo could- be ludneed to come forward and take a Uttie fatherly advice. J l e had lost his kingdom, his capital and his armament, i and he had had 800 of hit army killed. VfflrHODlST EPISCOPAL CilUKCH. • I l l K*v. U. L. Cope, pastor.

WILL LISTEN t t f NO SETTLEMENT WITH MEN EXCEPT AS .INDiyiDUALSk VERY IMPORTANT DECISION JUDGE KINNE IN THE C. M. B, A. CASE. BY It is positively stated that so far as the Grand Trunk railway is concerned there will never be a settlement with the striking machinists at Port Huron, Stratford, Toronto nntf-^her^lajces, as unionists. The Grand Trunk is determined, It is said, to have "open shop" in its locomotive department, and no settlement will be made with the machinists except as individuals. Of the 125 machinists formerly employed by the Grand Trunk shops at Port Huron there are now about 100 on strike, the remainder haying returned to work on the company's terms, deserting the union. After the recent visit of President 0*€onnell and Second Vice-President Champion, of the International Association of Machinists, it was decided by the local machinists to appoint a committee to wait upon Master Mechanic J. T. McGrath to arrange for a settlement Mr. McGrath received the committee and asked to have the mechanics' proposition in writing. This was done and after several days an answer was received by the men that the Grand Trunk absolutely refused to listeiTtortneproposition; Merchants are feeling the strike severely in their business. trxxuy 33>uuu a month is lost to the city while it is on. Important to Fraternal Orders. An opinion of immense importance to every member of every fraternal insurance order is that handed down by Judge Edward Kinne, of the Washtenaw circuit court. The case at point was that of Michael Williams against the Catholic Mutual Benefit Association, to restrain the supreme council of that order from enforcing the increased scale of rates adopted in October, 1903. Williams is a member of the local lodge, having joined it in 1900, when 68 years of age. When the change of rates was made Mr. Williams's assessment was nearly doubled, and he began a suit which was to serve as a test case for the 70,000 members of the order in the United States. In his decision Judge Kinne holds that when Mr. Williams joined the order the latter made with him a contract of insurance, naming therein the rate to be paid, and that the order has no right te change this rate at its pleasure. This decision will affect other fraternal orders which have done or are contemplating doing the same thing as the C. M. B. A. did; that Is, raising the rates for old members. Coming at this time it is of special interest to the Royal Arcanum, where the new table of rates is now pending. 1 r**.A\*j. i ,(| re STATE BRIEFS.

' The flag of S t Andrew once again floats over the battleship and torpedo boat,' which had proved such terrors to the Black sea communities for a couple of weeks past. The formal sur-. render of the mutinous crews occurred at 1 o'clock on Saturday, after a series of discussions and negotiations between the Roumanian authorities and the leaders of the mutineers. The Roumanian officers who boarded the battleship on her arrival here called upon the crew to surrender, in which case they would be treated as foreign deserters, or else leave the port forthwith. It speedily became apparent that the Russian vessels returned to this port with the Intention of giving themselves up to a foreign government and the crews soon announced their acceptance of the Roumanian terms.

Countess Alfretti was left dreaming; in an hour, when it became quite dark, some mysterious voice commanded her to steal from the house and go to tho studio of Margollus. She crept away, and so stealthy had she been in alt her movements, that none saw her. When U was discovered that the Countess Alfretti had disappeared, a great cry was raised and all London was aroused.- Alfretti, who had just gone to Florence on some business, wav summoned home again, but he did not reach London until the afternoon following the Countess' disappearance. Every department of the police regulations was notified, and a careful search throughout the city was instituted. But. all to no avail. Friends came to offer condolence to Alfretti; among them, Margolius. But after this, for long days and nights, Margollus was not seen among his friends. Servants of the house in which he resided gave It out that the artist was engaged upon a great picture and was not to be disturbed under any circumstances. Tho search for the missing Countess waa continued assiduously, and was extended to other cities. Every plausible suggestion waa acted upon, but all resulted fruitlessly—not a clew had been found by which to trace her the trst step beyond the house.

The action of the president fn asking Mr. Root, a civilian, to represent the department of state, the greatest in -the government,- at the Hay funeral, indicated the president's wishes that Root return to the cabinet. They had a long conference on their train,, while returning from Cleveland last evening, and it was at the conclusion of several hours' talk that Mr. Root agreed to take up the work of John Hay. The appointment of Root makes him the most prominent man in the administration, and he will undoubtedly now secure the administration support for °the presidency In 1008 in preference to Secretary of War William H. Taft. Dish Towels Were No Longer Needed by the Bachelor. - He had been keeping bachelor hal1 under the supervision of his favdritt girl cousin, and once a week she came to dine with him and observe his progress. Incidentally she constituted herself a bureau of supply and saw that he was supplied with everything aeedful—except dish towels. Somehow, no .matter ' how elaborate her shopping plans, she could not remember the towels and. for a while he was reduced) to using an old sheet. Then came a day when he rose in revolt and decided that he would keep house no longer. So far as the cooking was concerned he kept his word, and the cousin was invited to dine at a restaurant instead. The first evening the new order went into practice the cousin turned up, her face aglow. "I just know that you can't tell what I have in that hnnrila," eh* cairf "ond T ahft'n't toll you till we get home." The bachelor guessed in vain and at last the feminine inability to keep a secret triumphed over the desire to save up the surprise. "I've just got to tell you that I have those towels at last." she explained, triumphantly, as she watched tor the pleased smiles she felt to be her due. She guessed the truth from his face. "And I got them just as you ne longer have any dishes to dry," shf wailed.—New York Sun Great Scandal. Proof of speculation on margins by officers of the Equitable Life Assurance society with funds of the policyholders is said to be in the hands of Superintendent of Insurance Hendricks, and soon is to be made the basis of criminal actions. It is not known that any of the money so risked was lost, but it is said that it makes no difference in the legal—status of those Who made such misuse dT Equitable's funds. Hendricks, it ts said, will insist that both Attorney General Mayer and District' Attorney Jerome shall proceed against everybody involved, and push the cases against them vigorously. Gov. Higgins has instructed Hendricks to make a rigid investigation of the affairs of all bis insurance companies doing business in that state. Maine Got Twelve Years. Charles Mains, convicted at Ketchikan, Wash., under the name of Robert Ball for the murder of William Deppe, was taken to the federal prison on McNeil's island, to serve a twelve years' sentence. The killing of Deppe grew out of a quarrel between stockholders in a marble quarry on Fox island. Mains was tried and acquitted at Battle Creek several years ago for attempting to take the life of a lawyer who had him Indicted for perjury in the United States court. Groom 79—Bride 23.

X RAY EVIDENCE [Original.] "John Randolph," said the prosecuting attorney, "you are accused of robbing the hen roost of Uncle Ben -Franklin. \*OH bare not only robbed It once, but a dozen times. Were it not for the repetition of the offense your distinguished fellow citizen would look leniently upon the theft and leave ypu to your conscience. But you have taken a dozen fat chickens which he has reared, nurtured with tender affection and brought to an age when he could have sold them for broilers to a good profit What have you to say in your defense?* "I hab to say, mars' lawyer, dat I hain't tasted chicken meat fo' two years.

The question we are here to determine is your guilt or Innocence, of the charge of stealing Ben Franklin's hens." "To' mistaken, sah. Dere ain't no question ob my innocence; de only question is ob my guilt." "John," looking at the negro admiringly, "I doubt if Randolph of Roanoke ever spoke a truer sentence. Since the accused is guiltless before the law till proved guilty there is no question as to your innocence. It la your guilt we are to determine." "Dat depeudB, sah, wedder yo' tak circumstantiary evidence. Yo' can prove anything by dat evidence. Reckon if I was snorin' in bed ye' might prove I war robbin' hen roosts by dat.

This epidemic was followed by the great fire of 1066, which destroyed 16,- 000 houses, including all the most densely populated portions of the city. The rebuilding of London with some regard to sanitary laws appears to g have put the first check on the epidemic diseases that had previously devastated its population. Geq.

"The X ray is a light by which we can look into a man's body and see what's there. Now, I'm going to determine your guilt or innocence of stealing a chicken last night.

I prepose to bring the X ray to bear on your stomach and determine If the chicken is there." John Randolph turned livid. So long as words couid be used to throw dust into the court's eyes he had maintained an air of injured innocence. "Now that science was to point out his guilt he quailed. But only for a moment. A sudden thought Seemed to strike him, and he braced- himself for a continuance of his case. . "Bring in the X ray apparatus," the attorney called to his assistant.

It would require nearly a lifetime to do justice to this most wonderful scene in America. We were at the Falls three days and were obliged to tear ourselves away from their entrancing grandeur.

The first time was in March 1848 and the last was March 22 of this year. While the Canadian channel was not dry so far out as in the year 1848, the American channel was even more so and the people were able to travtl over the dry riverbed where human feet never before had trod. This strange state of affairs was caused by the ice floe from Lake Erie which grew so heavy that great masses of ice crowded upon the ledges near the head of Goat Island and diverted the water from the American to the Canadian channel. Above the ice jam the water was at least three feet higher than usual, out below the point where the ice rested on the rocks there there was little water and the rocks were quite bear. Men, women and children, unmindful of the fact that the river might break through the ice jam above them atd carry them over the falls and to eternity, romped about the ro-ks with great glee, lor the possibility of walking over .this portion of the river appeared to intoxicate everybody with delight, Eyery pothole, every crevice and the little islands were searched for any kind of a ' memento & of the day and occasion.

INDIAN TREATMENT OF 8ICK. -~ft---la a great satisfaction for a woman to feel that she can write to : another telling her the most private land confidential 'details about her illness, and know that her letter will be seen by a woman only, a woman full of sympathy for her sick sisters, and above all, a woman who has had more experience in treating female ills than any living person. Oner one hundred thousand cases of female disease* come before Mrs. Pinkham every year, some personally, others by mail, and this has been going on for twenty years, day after day. Surely women are wise in seeking advice from a woman of such experience, especially when it is absolutely free. Mrs. Pinkham never violates the con* fidence of women, and every testimonial letter published is done so with the written consent or request of the writer, in order that other sick women may be benefited as they have been. Mrs. Fred Seydel. of 412 North 54th Street, West Philadelphia, Pa., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham :— " Over a year ago I wrote you a letter asking advice, as I had female ills and could not carry a child to maturity. I received your kind latter of instructions and followed your advice. I am not only a well woman in consequence, but have a beautiful baby girl. I wish every suffering; woman in the land would write you for advice, as you have done so much for me." Just as surely as Mrs. Seydel was cured, will Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound cure every Woman Buffering- from any form of female ills. No other medicine in Ml the world has such a record of cures of female troubles as has Lydia £. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Therefore no prudent woman will accept any substitute which a druggist may offer. If yon are sick, write Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass , for special advice.

I fear me monstrous in the sight Of God and man the red array Of deeds that do my record blight; They hurl me from Perfection's height, A sinner sick with guile—and yet, I swear me this, my sins despite, I never smoked a cigarette. My faults are as the leaves that fall In number, as the shifting sands; I claim no righteousness at all; I yield to sundry strong demands Or flesh; my soul is bound in bands By demons of the blood—and yet. With all my faults, this record stands: I never smoked a cigarette. Sometimes. I know, my feet have trod Outside the straight and narrow path; I am with human weakness shod (Like you—but tell it not in Qath!); Though still J may escape the. wrath And win my soul's salvation yet. For this bright page my record hath: I never smoked a cigarette. So reader, take this little lay Andlcnow you may be happy yet, If only you will watch and pray— And never smoke a cigarette. —Portland ©regontan. - SeJf-Protectlng Plants. Plants protect themselves much tbeij same as insects. One of the uses of the movements of the sensitive plant is to frighten animals. A venturesome, browsing creature coming near it is afraid to touch a plant which so evidently l i occupied by spirits. The squirting cucumber o r the Mediterranean alarms goats and cattle by discharging its ripe fruits explosively in their faces the moment the stem is touched. The cucumber contains a pungent juice, which discharges itself into the eye of its opponent, and the smarting sensation which results hard to bear.

In answer to inquiries as to the \ meaning of the word it was explained that a pachofsha is a feast and a part o! the incantation and superstitious ceremony conducted over the sick by the lower c l ^ a of Ignorant Indians. When a man is thought to be sick enough to require the services of a doctor Jie is put into a hut, and for three days no one except the doctor sees him. The doctor goes into the woods and gathers herbs, from whlca he p£eparws a potion for the sick man and men keeps a lonely vigil with him. At the end of the third day, if the patient is not improved, the jorder is given to prepare a pachofsha. Corn and meat, either beef, pork or game, are put in a large kettle and stewed until the corn is soft. All the relatives of the sick man are entitled to attend, and they gather around the kettle for the feast. The sick man is brought out and served first. He is fed as much as his stomach can hold, and the others then turn in and devour the remainder of the stew. When tbiB~is--eon£ludeuUa^>on^-j. flre is built and lighted, and the crowd circles around and dances to the tune of a weird chant. After this, if the sick man does not show signs of getting better, nothing more is done for him, and he dies or gets well by act of Providence,—Oklahoma Times Journal Talents and Confidence. A single-talent man, supported by great self-confidence, will achieve more than a ten-talent man who does not believe in himself. The mind cannot act with vigor in the presence of doubt. A wavering mind makes a wavering execution. There must be certainty, confidence and assurance, or there can be no efficiency. An uneducated man who believes in himself, and who has faith that he can do the he_. undertakes, often puts to _Ono instance Where Balzao Failed as ^ i~~QlrapHbloQtitr " ^ If there was one thing upon which Balzac flattered himself more than another it was his skill in reading character from handwriting. But be made a sad mistake on oae occasion. A lady brought htm .an extract from the exercise book oj a 12- year-old schoolboy, and asked him for an opinion as to the youngster's char acter and prospects. Balzac inquired whether the child was her own. Answered in the negative, he examined the exercise carefully and delivered his Judgmnt. "Madame," he said, "this child is thick-headed and frivolous. He- will never come to any good. If he were my child I would take him from school and put him to the plow." Then It was explained to the novelist that the specimen on which he had pronounced so severely was one ofj his own which had been discovered hidden away between the leaves of an old lesson book.

A systematic excavation of the prehistoric tumulus on Clober moor, Milngavie, Scotland, began a few days ago. The operations are being conducted by Mr. W. A. Donnelly, whose former discoveries created so much interest in the archeological world. Already the workmen's operations have disclosed some remarkable features, and the finds are such as to rank in interest with some of the best in the Edinburgh museum. The tumulus is of the circular type, built on a rising mound 250 feet above sea level. It has a diameter of nearly ninety feet, and consists of an inner and outer circle. The urns already discovered were deposited in the outer circuit. Mr. Donnelly has also discovered in the same vicinity evidences of other Druidical remains. rterTeservta&Wying and Beautifying the Skin, Scalp, Hair, and Hands.

Two stamps were once put into an offertory box by a lady in Georgetown. They were 2-cent stamps, issued in British Guiana in 1850. The lady had come across an envelope among her papers bearing two of these stamps. The incumbent. Canon Josa, sold the envelope with the two stamps on it by auction and it realized £205. The following year the same two, stamps changed hands at £650, the first purchaser making £445 profit on the deal.

The first year I could not do as much as a baby could do, then I rallied a little bit and then a relapse. Then a year ago the gout set In my hands and feet. I suffered untold agony and in August, 1903, when my husband died 1 could not ride to the grave. "I only took two boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills and in two weeks I could wait on myself and saw my own wood. I dug my own potatoes and gathered my own garden last fall. Dodd's Kidnely Pills cured me."

A portion of Queen Elizabeth's state kirtle, valued by its owner at £200, had a curious history.. The kirtle came Into the possession of her family over a century ago, and she ignorant of its real value, had cut it up to give to her friends, until she only had a yard or two of the embroidery left. Queen Victoria on one occasion nearly became the purchaser of this interesting relic. Too Many Meaningless Things. The average house is too full of furniture and meaningless things. Everything in the house that does not add something to the convenience happiness or education of the family or some member of the family is an extravagance.

The Watermelon an Old Bird. It seems that Columbus introduced the watermelon into this country. He brought seeds with him, and the plant rapidly spread through the new world. The watermelon is said to be the most ancient of all the edible vegetables in Asia, where it is supposed to have originated. The melon was cultivated In France certainly as early as 1629, and was a favorite dish with the early Greeks and Romans. Use for Discarded Tramcars.

THE MONTHLY TRIAL HEADACHE, DIZZINESS, BEAHING* TWffTms. - — IN COLONEL'S TOWN Things Happen. From the home of the famous "Keyhnel Keeyartah of Cartersvllle," away down South, comes an enthusiastic letter about Postum: "I was in very delicate health, suffering from indigestion and a nervous trouble so severe that I could hardly sleep. The doctor ordered me to discontinue the use of the old kind of coffee, which was like poison to me, producing such extreme disturbance that I could not control myself. But i such was my love for It *hat I could not get my own consent to give it up for some time, and continued to suffer, till my father one day brought home a package of Postum Food Coffee. "I had the new food driak carefully prepared according to directions, and gave it a fair trial. It proved to have a rich flavor and made a healthy, wholesome and delightful drink. To my taate the addition of cream greatly Improves it. "My health began to improve as soon as the drug effect of the old coffee was removed and the Postum Coffee had time to make its influence felt. My nervous troubles were speedily re-J lieved and the sleep which the old cof? fee drove from my pillow always came to soothe and strengthen me after I had drunk Postum—in a very ., abort time I 4>egan to sleep better than 1 had for years before. I have now used Postum Coffee for several years and like it better and find it more beneficial than when I first began. It is an unspeakable joy to be relieved of the old distress and sickness."

KLINE, U<L, Ml Arch Street, I'hilauelplUtt, Pa Profit* of the Packer*. There has been a great deal of disappointment because the Garfield report shows that the profits of the packing industry only amount to about two per cent of the volume of business transacted. There 1B no doubt, however, that the report is correct. The census reports compiled by the government in 1900, before the agitation regarding the "beef trust" began, throw considerable light on this question. It appears from the census that the packing Industry is conducted on a smaller margin of gross profit than any other industry in America. The gross margin of profit of 871 flour and grist mills in Illinois, in the census year, was nearly seven per cent on the volume of business. The gross margin of fifty-one wnolesale slaughtering and meat packing establishments in ^Uinpis was only about onethird as IaYgfl, or a little more than two per cent on the volume of business. The millers have not been accused of being in a "trust," and combinations would seem impossible in a business where there are several thousand mills in the United States competing actively for the flour trade, but it appears that the gross profits of the millers are larger than the gross profits of the packers, it may turn out that the agitation regarding the packing industry will show the same result as the devil found in shearing the pig: "All squeal and no wool.'* — American Homettead.

J t a c t e a t P l a t l a v n s . Ifce discovery of platinum was long thought to be quite modern. In the first half of the sixteenth century It was noticed that gold ore from the Spanish mines in Darieu sometimes Included grains of a white metal which possessed the qualities of what are called the noble metals, but there were no existing records to throw light upon the matter. As the Spaniards prohibited its export, It was another hundred years before the metal began to find its way into Europe, and it was not till about 1750 th:.t its properties were really investigated. In 1901 M. Berthelot, the famous French savant, made ' an astonishing discovery in Egypt He was examining a metal box, once the property of an Egyptian queen of the seventh century B. C, and In It he found a plate which at first sight he took to be silver, but afterward turned out to be made of an alloy of gold and platinum. Doubtless the platinum came from the alluvial deposits of the upper Nile. Sathryn—He says rfs too mncfi~of a mental strain. Reginald—Ob, pshaw f Ton look strong enough.

In looking over a book of travels in France, written more than 100 years ago, I came across an interesting bit about the way of catching frogs for injirket. The author mentions the fact that frofc* were sold by the hundred in the markets, that they were classed as lish and that only the hind quarters were eaten. But to come to the main point he says: "To catch the frogs the fisherman puts one of them in a glass vessel, which he dips into a brook, on which the creature, finding Itself in so strange a situation confined In the midst of water in a transparent machine, or, I may eay, invisible prison, begins to croak most melodiously, and by his croaking makes multitudes of other frogs come to him on every side, as if to rescue their companion, when the JrrolTBlhlgr'TaTlaTlt^^leTleT his prey.''—ixmaon Chronicle. tA W K 6c K K K £ / NERVOUS DEBILITY OUR N E W M E T H O D T R E A T M E N T will cure you, and make a man of you.

" Alfred Bonn, the celebrated English impresario and operatic librettist of the last century, was not always In an amiable frame of mind, and one day he was seen at a rehearsal holding a wretched "super" by the collar and scolding him savagely. The poor fellow's fright and distress, says F. J. Crowest in his biographical anecdotes of famous musicians, attracted the attention of Malibran, the famous prima donna. The lady crossed over to the manager and said: "Do you know, I shall call you 'Good Friday.' *' "Why?" he asked. "Because," replied Malibran, "you are such a hot cross bun."

Mrs. Miller, the child's mother, told the sfory of the whipping," the lad's suffering for several days following the punishment and his agonies during the three days before he died. The pother's recital of the case was extremely pathetic. She was subjected to a severe cross-examination, which, however, failed to change any part of her evidence. Witnesses testified to going to the house and being shown the bruises and discoloration on the boy, as he lay in bed. Dr. William Wilson, who attended young Miller, testified as follows: "When I first saw Phillip he was a very sick boy—high fever and a nervous twitching of the muscles, indicating chorea. I also found the lower part of his back and hips badly bruised, and chowingthe—effect a of a secern State Osta the Monty.

This was supposed to be the end of the matter, as the letter indicated the controller of the treasury, before whom Attorney-General Bird argued the claim, sustained the opinion of the auditor. Wednesday, however, Attorney- General Bird received the control: ler's conclusion, together with an additional check for $23,448.78, which leaves the check only $700 short of the amount originally asked for by the state.

With five bullet wounds in his body, M. A. Burgess of Isabella county, is in a critical condition in the Exchange hotel, Can?. Robert Williams, whom no one seems to know and who' is thought to be a hobo who hung 'round the depot in Mt. Pleasant for some time, is being hunted by officers, as he did the shooting. The two men arrived at the Caro hotel on Wednesday and were supposed to be friends.. They mingled very little with other guests and Thursday morning early started on a fishing trip, after Burgess had paid the bills for both. They were seen on the river bank near the railroad. Passersby heard shots and went to investigate, finding Burgess prostrate on the ground with five bullet wounds in his body, and Williams had disappeared into the woods. Burgess said that he had been lying on the ground when Williams suddenly began firing at him. Four bullets struck h i m h n f n r n hn r n n l H g p j ^ p P r | ^ f^p fifth lodged in his back as he was trying to get away. Before he could tell any more Burgess lapsed into unconsciousness.

Mr. Wallace, according to the ofl&cial version of the case given out, received while In Panama an offer of a position with a great corporation (the Metropolitan railway system of New York city) at a salary of $60,000 per annum. His salary with the Panama canal commission and as chief engineer of the canal was $25,000 a year. Engineer Wallace suggested to Secretary Taft that he would remain with the commission two months, but, after considering the matter, President HlrPfftprt Secretary Taft to accept the resignation at once. There is no concealment by the aaministration of its feeling regarding Mr. Wallace's tender at this time oft his resignation. It is felt that he has not acted fairly to.the government in; accepting comparatively recently the responsibility of directing the canal construction, and now offering his resignation at a time which is regarded as crucial in the work of the canal.

The climax was capped Tuesday night in the Bay City street railway strike when thousands of frenzied citizens congregated all along the various lines of the system, stoned the cars, pelted strike breakers, assaulted the police officers, attempted to mob Supt. Morris, drove officers and men off one car on Cass avenue, and ran it from Marsac street off the end of the track across the Michigan Central railway tracks on Water street, where it was pelted with stones and bricks, then burned. The situation became extremely chaotic, and it was simply a miracle that Supt. Morris escaped with his life at the corner of Lafayette avenue and Broadway, where the crowd was clamoring for him while he was in charge of Officers Hatch and Meeks The latter had to use their billies and flourish their revolvers to prevent the excited people from carrying out their fearful work.

A special from Watklnsville, Ga., says six negroes and one white man were lynched there Tuesday night by a mob of white men, many of whom were supposed to be citizens of that place and Oconee county. The mob formed about midnight, marched to the. jail and compelled the jailer to deliver the keys to the prison. The following prisoners, all negroes, were taken from their cells\ Lewis Robertson, Richardson Robertson, "Sandy" Price, Claude Elder, "Ben" Harris, "Joe" Patterson and "Jim" Yearly. Lon Aycock, a white man, was also taken from his cell by the mob. The jailer was compelled to accompany the mob and its victims to the scene of the lynching, which was but 200 yards from the center of the town. The eight prisoners were marched to a corner lot within 200 yards of the jail and in the heart of the town. They were bound to a fence with their hands tied behind them. At a command by the leader, the mob stepped back a few paces, took deliberate aim and fired a volley from rifles, shotguns and pistols into the line of prisoners. Every man In front of the mob fell at the first volley. An examination by the jailer showed that seven of the men had been riddled by bullets, but Patterson Was found to be only slightly injured. Pat* terson's escape from death was as by a miracle, for the fence post to which he had been bound was torn to fragments by the bullets. Seven bodies hung in a cluster from the orossbar of a telegraph pole, swaying in the wind, greeted the first arrivals in the town Thursday, the lynching being completed before daylight.

I don't read the Bible as often as I ought, but twice lately, Sunday morning, I have read a few verses, and on going to church the minister would read the same for a morning'lesson. Now, I say, considering how many verses the Bible contains, these two incidents are more striking'than the single one of Hamilton's riding on the train with a woman who has since been proved to bi connected with a bank defaulter in the West. You haven't considered, either," said Tony, shrewdly, "that Bruce was led to, Ashley by the clew furnished by heY iemeraid hair." "That is something worth looking at.

There was a letter H.. on it, and .without doubt it was one of the set of three studs which the cashier wore when he left home. , "Where did you get it?" asked the boss. "Find 'urn," said the Italian, "Where?" The man motioned toward the south, saying, "Down reever." - T h e first Italiaif came up at this juncture and said: "He He. Stole 'urn from Pierre." "Who is Pierre?" asked Swan. "Pierre drowndeed." "Yes; Pierre was drowned at Grovedale with' three other Italians," said the boss, walking with Swan to a little^ distance. "They went across the river for Hqnnr, nml th? front "p«"* *n* they were all drowned." "What sort of a man was Pierre?'' "The worst of the gaag," said the boss. "They are a murderous set, too. I would not have them, but the corporation get them cheap and Ihey work well. The four men that were drowned were burled in the dump by the others without any more ceremony than would go to the covering up of a dead horse. I tried to have them make a box, but they would not until I threatened them with a discharge. They made two, at last, and put two men in each and buried them so. They are a bad lot." "Would they kill a man, do you think?" "Yes, if they were not afraid of being found out. They value life no more than a pebble." —kft can easily bo- imaginedp-Swanis^ investigations were—uuulu with im . The river was dragged as far ac the falls, where It was impossible a body ' could remain, ana. far below the falls. It continued three days, end at the end of that time a decomposed body was found; with a few rags elining to It, but nothing about it which could lead to recognition. Jt was a frightful sight and Constance was not called upon to Identify it, as many of the hank officers, and Mr. Carter himself, said that there would not be the slightest use in doing so. So Constance was spared the harrowing scene aad encouraged to believe the body could not be that of her husband, particularly as it was discovered that a fifth Italian had been missed from his gang one night, and philosophically left to his fate by his companions, though they believed him to have been drowned. This information was received through the boss to whom Swan wrote for information. Nevertheless, the body was decently buried at the expense of Mrs. Hamilton', though not in the family lot, and Constance, with a new doubt eating Into her already troubled heart, felt as if ail efforts In elucidating the mystery of her husband's disappearance only made it denser, more unfathomable. .

But at last Swan became convinced that they really knew very "Too much clew/* the direct lino of railroad was enmplete, a branch road was in process of construction about fifty miles distant, and a gang of Italians, presumably the same, were at work on it under the same "boss" employed while engaged on the Grovedale line. The boss could talk a little Italian, but not so perfectly as to warrant the expectation that they could be made to understand an intricate matter like the one now presented. But at last a confused inkling of it seemed to have penetrated the mind of one of the Italians, for, with a look of malice, he pointed to another at work not far distant, saying, "Leetle button goold." "Does he mean that the other one has a little gold button?" asked Swan. "Yes, I think so," said.the boss. The detective took from his pocket the gold one marked V. which Tony had given him and held it Up before the first Italian. "Yees, yees," he said, and rattled off besides a long string of Italian which was Greek to the boss as well as to Swan. Upon this, Swan went to the second man, the boss walking beside him and saying, "The-two had a Quarrel yesterday, drew their knives on each other before they were separated." The Italian No. 2 evidently did not oare to talk with them, but laid away his small ryocabulary of English, retraining, conveniently deaf, even when !jBwan produced the button and inquired as plainly as he could If he had one like It. But he paid no heed till Ahe bossjRut his hand suggestively on the man's pocket and .motioned him energetical!* totfve It up. "Sharp now!"Usald, UireaWnlntry: ' ;' A murderous gleam came rato the HHIP ah^nt tho mutter, h]s practiced eyes discerning no signs of actual guilt, and he was forced to believe that if any of the gang assaulted Hamilton it must have been Pierre and his companions who were drowned, and this was the opinion of the boss. By dint of vigorous questioning, consulting with the boss and other laborers, Swan discovered that the place where Pierre said he found the button was at or dear the spot where the cap was found, and that the Friday before the drowning of Pierre and his companions was the 24th of May. Here was something definite, hut seemingly of but little consequence. No amount of investigation could bring forward anything further to throw .light on the matter, and Swan was forced at last to go back to Grovedale with the modicum of information couched in the above words. "Well, that is something," said Tony, when told of it. "Too much clew; two buttons, mates and a cap, all marked, are too much. I am suspicious of them." "It does look a little that way, but I am certain of one? thing." "What is.that?" "It was Hamilton who came to the bank." "Then he may have planned the matter to look like suicide; probably did, if he ran away with another woman. Or if innocent, he was followed, robbed, button and cap left on the bank, and he spirited away somewhere." ••Or sunk in the river," said Tony. "Yes, or "sunk in the river. I have taken means to have it- thoroughly searched this week, and then we shall know, but I incline to the belief that the Italians had nothing to do in the matter." A Pair of Shoulders. It cannot be denied that Constance preferred to think of her husband as dead rather than untrue to her; and, as wishes tint one's thoughts dally, till the color becomes strong and enduring after a time, so Constance, chose to think of herself as a widow —a widow bereft of her husband, who had died in the discharge of bis duty. atadt, rose in mutiny Friday morning. One officer was killed. The men refused to work or pay any heed to officers. The outbreak, together with those at Libau and Odessa, caused an all-round slump on the bourse. Imperial 4s were sustained by the government, but neverthaless they fell almost a.pointy The mutiny of the men on the Russian warship Kniaz PotemkJne and murder of the officers which startled all Russia was but the beginning of a practical outbreak of civil war. Arriving in Odessa, the mutinous crew trained the guns on the city and bid defiance to all civil and military authority, the result being that on Tuesday night collisions between the mobs and the police and military resulted in the loss of seventeen lives, including three policemen.

He was somewhat mystifiedr- therefore, by her coming to him to consult about procuring a monument to place over the remains of her husband. "I wish something to be set as soon as the spring opens; something plain, yet rich and elegant." "But—ah—is it quite sure that your lamented husband is dead, Mrs. Hamilton?" "There is no doubt of it, sir; none whatever." Mr. Allen without a word placed before her some cuts representing the different styles in Scotch granite and Italian marble, and she finally chose one of'the finest marble with granite base. "I wish the inscription to be very simple," she said. "Just his name, Vane Hamilton." "Very chaste, madam, both the monument and inscription. It shall be cut as soon as possible, and set up in the spring as soon as the frost is out of the ground." "Thank you," she said.

"I may not put the inscription on the marble, but on my heart are engraved a million loving words." Mrs. Hamilton and her two children always attended the Congregational church. Constance took a very strong interest in religious matters; indeed, religion and love for her children were the only subjects unimpaired by her trouble, and these were more intense. Therefore she never entered the church without glancing in the direction of the mill people's pew to'see~if they were as well filled or better than usual. On the occasion of which I write, the one following the day when she had chosen her monument, as she entered she glanced that way as usual, and for a moment her heart stood still. Then it gave a tempestuous bound. Constance never paused, but, with flushed cheeks and startled eyes, walked up the aisle to her own seat, and the minister laid open the big Bible, adjusted the long velvet bookmark laden with Maltese and Roman crosses (Mrs. Hamilton's gift to the church), and began reading with wellmodulated voice the morning lesson. But he could not prevent his heart from recognizing the pink flush on one woman's face and the fact that it made her marvelously beautiful. And what occasioned it? Only a pair of shoulders in the mill people's pew; a pair of shoulders of square cut, yet peculiar mould, that reminded her Instantly of her husband. Nothing else, less than nothing else, for the head above them was covered with dark, almost black hair, and her hnshand's was a golden brown of light shade. • {To be-continued.) " mob broke through the military cordon around the town and looted two large customs warehouses. Between 11 and 12 o'clock Thursday night the Kniaz Potemkine began firing on the town, and incendiaries began to set fires. The conflagration extended for over a mile, and thousands of tons of railway sleepers and all the trestles supporting the elevatedrailroad serving the port, together with all the contiguous buildings, were consumed, the troops in the | meanwhile firing volleys to compel I the rioters to desist. j A dispatch from Odessa, timed 3:52 p. m. Friday, says: "Mobs estimated to number 12,000 persons attacked the patrols of troops in the streets yesterday and the fighting; continued into the night. Several hundred persons were killed or wounded. The hospitals are crowded with wounded. The petroleum reservoirs were set on fire and exploded. All traffic in the streets is stopped. The volunteer cruiser Saratoff was burned. Up to the present time nine ships have b?en burned. The central railway station was destroyed by fire last evening, many persons being injured and taken to the hospitals." About 4,000 mutinous sailors are surrounded in a small wood near the port of Libau by infantry, the latter being reinforced by machine guns. One thousand of the mutineers surrendered and gave up their arms. The mutiny started Monday night when the sailors of the first equipage, as the naval units are known in Russia, revolted because the—food was badrhim $18,000 in paper on which he realized a loan of $10,000. Sixty days later, when the loan became due, he returned to Kalamazoo, renewing the loan and leaving, $13,000 worth of paper as security'&hd selling one of the notes for $5,000 to R. J. Williamson, of the Kalamazoo Savings bank. It was gilt edge paper, and be never credited the transaction on the books of the bank, and I never knew of it until I went to Kalamazoo to check up our account." On Saturday John F. Young, William H. Ledere and Joseph McBlvain, three creditors, filed a petition in the United States court in Grand Rapids asking that the bank be declared bankrupt. The petition states that the liabilities of the insolvent concern total $300,000; that the bank has but a small amount of cash on hand and can pay but a small per cent of the claims against it. It was further stated in the petition that the president was ill; that the cashier, Charles LuKeep. had asked that he be declared a personal bankrupt; and the president, E, L. Page, not be disturbed by creditors. The petition further states that the bank on June 22 purposely paid the following sums, knowing that the bank was on the verge of collapse: To 500; W. W. Nllle, $3,000, and other sums aggregating $17,000. Thereafter the bank closed Its doors and did no further business. Judge Wanty appointed Steven B. Munroe. of the Kalamazoo Trust Co., as receiver. They were joined immediately by the sixth, ninth, thirteenth and fifteentr equipages—5,000 blue jackets in all. The city was terrorized when troops and artillery arrived Wednesday morning. All entrances to the city were closed and gradually the sailors jwere driven into the wood, which they have since held. Much firing, mingled with the humming of machine guns has been heard, and everyone is forced by the police to keep off the streets and away from the ports some distance below the town. The czar has issued the following ukase addressed to the ruling senate: In order to guarantee public safety Odessa and neighboring localities, we have found it necessary to declare a state of war in Odessa and district, and to invest the commander of the troops in the military district of Odessa with the special rights of civil administration for the defense of order and public tranquillity. With Poland red with the spirit of revolt, the Caucasus already almost 'in a state of civil war; agrarian disorders spreading rapidly, the whole country profoundly stirred and the intelligent classes solidly arrayed against the government, all conditions seem ripe for the long-predicted revolution. Great fear is expressed that many regiments are honeycombed with sedition and there Is grave doubt of their loyalty should they be called upon to fire on the revolutionists. When the news reaches the armiej in Manchuria It is bound to create a deep Impression.

One of tbe most picturesque remains of the glories of New France, whose history and legends date back to the age of Frontenac and La Salle, is the old stooe fort at Ctaambly, In the province of Quebec. The tablet 0¾ the ruins, with its motto, 4iGourage and Loyalty," in French, bears this lnscrip tion: "In the relgj of Louis XIV. of France and Navarre, the Marquise de Vandreuil being governor of New 9nnee, this fort was e»ected In 1711, trarned In 1776, restored by Guy Carleton In 1777, abandoned In 1847. It was repaired m 1882 in the reign of Victoria, queen of Great Britain, the Marquis of Lome being governor general of Canada," etc. A fact which the Inscription kindly fails to record is that the burning referred to was by the American troops, who, having captured the fort in 1775 under General Montgomery, burned it the following year when they retreated to Lake Champlain. The various restorations have been made skillfully to harmonize with the weather beaten portions which resisted the fire of 177G. picture of which appears in this issue.

They know that they arc breaking the law by resisting him, while he might even kill them and not commit a crime. All through a fight with a policeman the other fello-w or fellows arc thinking of escape. Tbe> officer isn't. He's thinking of subduing and arresting the_rnan or men. He puts his whole effortaruT^trength into it. while his'opponents generally right in a half hearted way.

Alumni have made arrangements for a basket picnic at a grove near Lakeland Saturday of this week. Mrs. Clarissa Kirk who has been spending a couple of weeks with relatives here returned to her home in Howell Monday. The milk factory at Howell has installed two new machines for making cans. Each machine has a daily capacity ot 40,000 cans. Clark Reed and wife of Oceola and Mesdames Daniel Howard and Ada -Vincent of Howell were the guests of W. H. Placftway and family Saturday and Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Marcus Crippen were in Ypsilanti last week enjoying the old home week at that place. Of course they had a good time as that city had made every arrangement to entertain all former residents. Articles of association of the Livingston Oil Co. Ltd. have been filed with the county clerk. The capital stock ot $10,000 divided into 1,000 shares cf 610 each. The company will operate oil and gas wells in Livingston county. C. Brillinger and wife of Howell shook hands with their many friends here Sunday. Wednesday__next is the glorious fourth. We are reminded of it occasionally by the booming of a firecracker. Will Moran h^s four men working in McCluskey's gravel pit making cemeat blocks for the new bridge to be erected in that vicinity. Joie Devereaux closed her second term of school in the Mapes district Friday, and left Monday for Ypsilanti to attend summer school. As our readers are aware we have returned from a trip to Niagara Fajls This is not wonderful in-asmuch as hundreds of our patrons have made the trip but for the benefit of those who have not had this pleasure we will give a little writeup of the_Journey, the sights and scenes as tbey were impressed upon us. Thursday morning we left Pinckney for Detroit where we spent the day transacting business in one of the busiest, yet most beautiful and clean city in the United States. At 4:30 we went aboard the palatial steamer "Western States" and were soon on our way for a steady run of nearly fifteen hours down the river across lake Erie to Buffalo.

The show was not very well advertised and but. few knew of it. Emil Lambertson, who has been employed in this office the past nine months while attending school, has returned home and will spend the summer working on the farm. He was one of the graduates here having overcome all obstacles and graduated with honor. Thomas Birkett was surprised one day recently to find that the stork had presented one of his does in his deer park with a pure white fawn. The little thing was given the utmost possible care, but died in a few days. Mr. Birkett has hall the tiny fawn stuffed' and presented it to the University museum. . . ^ = : School is out now and the boys are | putting in one of the times of their lives, times that, if they live to be old gray haired men, they will always look back upon as the best of their whole lives. It does not signify that the boy must play all the vacation to make it the best of his life. "All work and no play etc." works, both ways for all play and nc work will developo a useless, nanby-panby, good for naught. A resonable amount ot work will fit any young person better for the responsiblitits of life and help them enjoy their play spells the more. BOWMAN'S HOWELL,! MICH. Spot Cash is our plan.

The Busy Store. is very pleasant as we passed the many island resorts, light houses, Ssheries, and most interesting of all the "Lime Kiln Crossing-' where all boats have to slow down to only a few miles per hour as there is much danger of rocks, and a slight fog will hold boats up at this point sometimes for an hour or more. Here the government expends hundreds of thousands of dollars keeping the water-way clear and enlarging the same annually to accomodate the increasing traffic. Many dredges are to be seen at work, drilling, blasting, raising the broken stone and hauling it away. Leaving the "crossing" we are soon out in the lake and most passengers retire for the night and that restful sleep that is to be bund "'riding on the billows of the deep." While passengers are sleeping the ever watchful captain and crew are on the alert to see that "all goes well." At 9 o'clock a. m. we arrive at Buffalo N. Y. in time for all east bound trains.

We have seen no rocks and but little rough country, we, run into Niagara down main street and alight. We look all about us for some signs of the "falls" but are disappointed—none in sight— only that ceaseless^noise of street cars everywhere, but where? our companion (who has been there before) says, that noise is the falls. We drop our grips and a walk of two-blocks brings us to one of the most beautiful, wonderful, and sublime scenes it has ever been our privilege to look upon and although it is dinner time we can hardly tear ourselves away trom the view. That beautiful, quiet river we had seen for so many miles, suddenly goes wild. It strikes an incline of 49 feet in about a half mile over rocks and shoals until it is beat into fury, then plunges 167 feet to the rocks below and while the bulk rushes on through the gorge a mist is raised that when the wind blows right makes it impossible to get within many rods of the falls without an umbrella' or storm coat. It is however dry most of the time and both falls—the American and Horseshoe— can be seen from any point ot view. Ot course no one would feel that they had seen the falls unless they visited the many beautiful spots surrounding them, Goat island, the Three Sister islands, etc. are easily reached on foot unless one is limited Continued on Pave 4. y' of their work and on Wednesday and Thursday the work was displayed in the grammar room and attracted much attention. While other sehools do something of the kind each year this was the first time that such an exhibit was ever given here and the teachers, M;sses Kennedy, Monks and Green, have every reason to be proud of the work of their pupils. There were essays, illustrated stories, pen drawings, water color work, diagrams of every discription also basket work and all done with much neatness showing that the hand, eye and mind had been cultivated to work in unison. Many who saw the pen drawings, mounted on mat board thought, until they gave them close examination that they were prints cut from magazines as they resembled them very much. The patrons of the school who took time to. visit the exhibit weie much pleased and interested and the teachers felt well paid for their ertra work. We speak tor as tine a show next year as many schools of the size can put up. The work certainly has a place in the education of the pupti evening was well attended and the class did their parts well and every thing came off as per program. The class have held together well and are now launched upon the world with a good education. It remains with them as to what use thev make of it. Some wilt probably reach out alter more education in college work, some will toacb in the schools of our country. WhicFevbr they do, if they do their best t*he'y are bound to succeed.

P. HATCH Author of M The Bank Tragedy" Copyright. 1803, by Lee and Shepard CHAPTER VI.—Continued. But was not there an ominous significance in its being found on the bank of the rlvor so hear the spot where the Italians were wont to land on their excursions after liquor? Easily excited, malicious and revengeful, ready to brandish their knives at any provocation, it was not impossible that they had set upon Hamilton when Intoxicated, k'illed him and sunk his body in the river. If his surmises should be proved true, then it would not be asked why Hamilton should do so strange a thing as to go to the bank and yet not to his own chouse afterwafds. It would .-be seen that he was on the way there when something hap- | pened to prevent, something dreadful, or he would have been heard from. Osborn, after some deliberation as to what would be the wisest course, called after banking hours at the house of the president. Mr. Hastings was present and received him pleasantly. As soon as the young man was alone with the president in the latter's room, he broached the subject of his call and produced the cap as confirmatory of his statement. "You found it by the river bank?" "Yes, sir; lodged in the bushes. It may have been washed ashore, but I think, as the water has been low since May, it was more likely tossed there by some one." "We had a small freshet the very last of May,'you recollect." .'.'.Yjas^sitj&gjflid! Well, it may have been washed there by the rise of the water. Anyway, it looks ominous; do not you think sol Mr. Hastings?" "Perhaps so," said the president. "Do you think Hamilton started to go home from the bank, went as far as the river. ' encountered the Italians, presumably intoxicated, and was finally set upon by tho^m?" "I do," said Tony, firmly. "I know that he was in town the 22d, and from what Ilknow of him I am convinced j he would not go away again without "There it is, sir. I thought so. As soon as the man grasped his hand and looked into his lace Low knew that it was Hamilton, though at fir3t he thought him a stranger." "Nothing strange about that, Tony. People are frequently deceived in the same way." "But if it was Ashley, and he was such a man as he is claimed to be, it would have been an easy matter to hypnotize Low and make him believe what he wished." "Why, Tony, you frighten me! Where might we not all be if there is such power afloat as that?" said Mr. H a s t i n g s , a g h a s t . _. "We know there is, sir. I have seen it manifested right here in Grovedale, and if I am not mistaken, you were present, too, when Dr. Major exhibited his influence over the minds of his subjects." "Yes, I recollect, and, bless me! you went forward, didn't you?" "I did, sir, and they told me I made a fool of myself; went around the audience offering flowers to the ladies, though I had nothing in my hand but my hat. Now, if Ashley possessed this power, it would have been an easy matter, having come into the possession of those notes, to hynotize Low, making him believe that he was Hamilton himself." "Well. well. Tony, you must own that this is all the purest conjecture; but if'by* a n y s t r a n g e conjunction of circ_ums_t_ances your idea should prove to be not without fouu datiouTHFuSvTIcffir Asniey come by Ihe uules;—why did Hamilton go away with Mrs.- Ashley, and where is Hamilton now?" "The second question I give over unanswered, the other two, by thinking of'Hamilton a s , in the power of Ashley, are explained. Yes, and that might explain the second, text." "But how about the Italian theory, must that go to the wall?" "The two might be united, somehow.'* " . Ing into the river, a man in his eenset and who never drank." "True. Then what do you think about it?" "It is p.ll conjecture, Mrs. Hamilton," said the young man, forbearing to speak of the presence cf the Ital ians, as he had done to Mr. Hastings. "I brought the cap for you to see and l-oep if vou wish. I thought you might like to know that It was probable Mr. Hamilton started to come here that night." "Oh, yes, thank you, Tony, and I will keep the cap. I was sure Vane never would go away without coming home. But if he did start and was prevented, what was it that happened to him? It was. something dreadful. He may have been murdered and thrown into the river," and Constance clutched at a chair to save herself from falling. "Let us hope that It is not so bad as that. He may be in the toils of Ashley somewhere." school, ''Who is Ashley, Tony?" ^ _ _ ) T h e River Rouge sewer bonding Young Osborn saw that by his syin^ptflll. pathy he had been led into error. Evid e n t l y s h e knew nothing- ahout-lhe. suspicion entertained by Bruce and others. He hardly knew what was best, but he decided to tell her about it. This would introduce the hypnotic theory, which might be in some sense a comfort to her, as doing away with the one point, hitherto regarded as in controvertible, of her husband's presenting in person the altered notes to Low and to the other bank and receiving the money in exchange. Constance listened to his account of Ashley, of Bruce's suspicions, and Tony's own ideas based on Bruce's account of Ashley's hypnotizing the jailer. "Now, if he could do that, Mrs. Hamilton, why might he not have influenced Low to the extent of making him believe he was the cashier of the Grovedale bank?" "Tr 'g n bolclidea^XGny,.,,,! wish I could credit it fully. And yet, as you £^c*r*5*nf "Was that Mr. Hamilton's?'* retting his wife know of his presence." "Ah, Tony!" said Mr. Hastings, gravely, shaking his h-aad. "The forces of his nature, his motives, were all unknown to us, and perhaps lo himself. Habit keeps many a man walking the straight path, when, had he been differently placed, he might have be^n a thief from fhe outset. Look at Spaulding of the Ayershire bank in Massachusetts. Lock at Caldwell of the Phenix. Were they not universally trusted? They had to be to fill the positions they did. Now, where are they? Both in Canada, where 1 •suspect Hamilton is. "Bruce thinks so, too." "Strange, wasn't it. about the man Ashley hypnotizing the jailer?" said Tony. 'Yes, it was. A man like that is a dangerous man." "But Hamilton had no such power that we know of,'' said Osborn. '•'*o would not be likely to let it be known if he had. If Ashley and Hamilton are identical this business at the bank here isn't his first piece of dishonesty." "I don't believe they are identical. I believe that Ashley is another sort of man. who may or may not resemble Hamilton, and who, by Hypnotism, or the milder forms of fascination, compels people to do his bidding. That letter of Simon Low's, would you mind reading again that passage where the man presented the Bowles & Estes note?" "No. here it is. 'When he entered I thought he was a stranger, but as soon as he srasped my hand and looked ir v.o my face \ saw that it was Hami'Um.'" "I conclude you have thought this matter up considerably." "Yes, sir, I have." "Couldn't have been Ashley Instead of Hamilton you saw going into the bank, hey?" "No, sir. I was too far away to be hypnotized," said Tony, smiling, "and I know it was Hamilton himself." "Well." said Mr. Hastings, thoughtfully, "this is a strange matter, and perhaps we are only at the beginning of the mystery." "That is what I think, sir. I only wish it might end by restoring Hamilton to his home and to his place at the bank, a happy, honored man." "Amen, Tony." say, it is no stranger than what he did to -the jailer,- as alleged by Mr. Bruce. Bruce then .thinks Ashley and Vane are one and the same." "Bruce is a stupid old curmudgeon! Couldn't track a mouse back to his hoi?." "Tony," said Mrs. Hamilton, suddenly, "what do you think of the letter thrust under Mr. Hastings' door and purporting to have been written by Mr. Hamilton? I do not think he wrote it at all." "He certainly did not, if what we have conjectured is true." "Why I think so I will tell you. He would never send me a message through another person no more than he would have come to the bank without coming.home," Mrs. Hamilton's confident assertion carried great weight with her listener until a doubt hurled from the regions of nowhere struck against it. "How," asked the doubt, "if he went away in the company of another^woman?"

"No," he replied, for his mind had already rallied from the shock on thinking that he had taken his premises on the belief of'his complete .innocence of every charge. "I think your reasoning is good. Mr. Hamilton is, I believe, instead of being a vietimizer, the victim himself, of circumstances, if not. conspiracy." Tony arose to go soon afterwards, and Mrs. Hamilton said, gravely: ••T ^hnii tunic' »vrr what vou have C H A P T E R V I I . Clews and Suspicions. In pursuance cf his first thought Tony took the cap and went to Mrs. Hamilton's with it in his pocket. He hardly knew how to broach the matter, but at last did so by laying it on the tabic and asking quietly, "Was that Mr. Hamilton's?" * > With a low cry Constance snatched the cap and pressed it eagerly to her breast. "Yes, It. is his cap. his traveling cap. I made it myself, and he took it away with him^ Where did you find it?" "'I found it on the rfver bank, where It lay as if tossed there by the freshet, or some person." "Oh. then he was drowned 1 • He was corning from the bank toward home and he fell into t h e river- W a s it very dark that night, Tony? 1 don't recollect," said Constance, piteously. "Rather dark; but consider, Mrs. Hamilton, the unlikelihood of his walksaid, and it may be I shall want your assistance in^followihg out some line of investigation. May I count on your aid?" "Yes. indeed. I shall be most happy to aid you if I can," and Tony's boyish face lighted up with pleasure. "Thank you. You are the only person in Grovedale, besides myself, who believes my husband to be innocent. Even Uncle Carter does not," said Mrs. Hamilton, with emotion, as she shook hands with the young man. Constance thought the matter over deeply for twenty-four hours, and then the following letter reached young Osborn: "Friend Tony—I have decided to ask of you the favor I hinted at yesterday. If you can get free from your duties at the bank for a few days I should like to have you go to the police headquarters in Boston, gain a personal interview with the chief, and have him send a suitable detective to follow out the new clue furnished by the cap found on the river bank. I desire a man of great astuteness, for such a man is needed, tell the chief, and I am willing to pay well for the service, and, of course, I shall reimburse you for the time and money spent In my behalf. "Very truly yours, "Constance Hamilton." Tony got his release without much difficulty and soon reached the police headquarters.

The St. Petersburg correspondent of the Echo de Paris s-ays he has received confirmation of the. report that t&e czar has decided to take formal steps' through Mr. Meyer, the American ambassador, to arrange an armistice. But reports from Washington show that suggestions'for an armistice have not been received with absolute favor by either Russia or Japan..Quite naturally each government is seeking an advantage over the other in the diplomatic sparring that is going on now, and among those in touch with the situation it is regarded as unlikely that definite arrangements for an armistice will be concluded—even 11 they should be concluded at all—before the formal meeting of the plenipotentiaries of the two powers. As heretofore noted, there is serious apprehension that unless a temporary suspension of hostilities be arranged, a great battle may be precipitated, the result of which might wreck completely the pending peace negotiations.

The City of Rome, which was bound down with a cargo of ore, went down immediately after the collision, about 50 feet from the Tasfc. moo Park dock, and the Linden, which was bound, up with a coal cargo, kept on her way up to Russel island, wher* she went down in the middle of t h e channel. The crews of both boats succeeded in getting away in their yawls, with the exception of the Linden's cook and his wife, who are reported missing.

Some time ago Shetterly bought a farm from a man named Phillips near Pokagon, and on April 29 left the home of his brothers, near Bertrand, where he had been visiting, to go to Bertrand and take the electric car to Niles, and thence to his new place. He was last seen some distance from Bertrand by a farmer named Washburn, with whom he talked. Last week his daughter in Dowagiac learned for the first time that he had never arrived at his farm, and notified the sheriff. Since the old man carried $100 in gold in his pocket, she believes that he has been waylaid, robbed and murdered, and his body concealed in the swamps near where he disappeared.

Warner from the cyclone-swept districts of Tuscola and Sanilac counties indicate that the responses to the governor's recent appeal for assistance for the victims of the disaster have not been as widespread and generous as was hoped for, or as the'situation demands. Gov. Warner expressed the hope that the people of the state will bear in mind the fact that about 150 houses, barns and other farm buildings, together with miles of fence and other farm property, were utterly ruined, and that the need of aid is most imperative.

The Russian-Polish city of Lcdz presents a Mckoniiia' scene of blootl and death as a resiilt of last week's riots. The trouble began on Tuesday, the 20th, after the funeral of the victims of the conflict between troops and terrorists the previous Sunday, The Christians were permitted to bury their dead, but the Jews were prohibited from doins so and the people secretly interred the bodies of the .Tew^ at night, which exicted indignation and terrorists1 -riots were initiated Thursday. The city resembles a shambles, and the terrible scenes of the two days will never be wiped from the memory of the Polish people. The fighting spirit of the people is fully aroused. They have tasted blood and want more. Certainly the revolutionary spirit is abroad, and it remains to be seen whether military measures will have the same effect as previously. It is quite impossible to give the exact number of killed and wounded as reports vary according to the quarter from which they are obtained. Certainly the killed number more than one/hundred, possibly 200, and the wounded five times as many. An official report says that the number of casualties was largely increased by the neglect of persons to remain indoors. The most serious phase of the rioting developed when the crowd deliberately pillaged liquor shops and numbers of persons, inflamed by drink, led a crowd of at least 50,000 to further and more serious attacks. Police and military were, attacked wherever they appeared in small force and many, individual members were killed. Finally the military secured the upper hand, but not without .considerable losses to themselves and fearful slaughter to the rioters. The soldiers exhibited the utmost carelessness as to whether they killed peaceful persons or rioters, and as a consequence many women and children were among th' "Hflead." ~* ~-"- . -"- -t J. W.

L , In May, 1784, the American congress, then In session at Annapolis, Maryland, received the resignation of John Jay of New York from the American commercial commission abroad, Mr. Jay being the colleague. of Benjamin Franklin and John Adams and Mr. Jefferson, then a member of the congress frqm Virginia, was elected to the vacancy. It was at a time when Mr. Jefferson was emerging from the one great sorrow of his life, the loss of Mrs. Jefferson, and the stricken statesman gladly accepted a mission which would take him away from his desolated home and give him such engroaalBg; j^ubH&jWorkas could not fail to prove beneficial in the end. /So Tie speedily arranged his home matters by correspondence, drew a portion of his $9,000 salary in advance, and with h}s eldest daughter, Martha Jefferson, then a young girl of ten years, the ttttare president proceeded leisurely *tt$ward ta quest of a ship that was bound for a French port. From Annapolis to Philadelphia, ijthen to New York, and by easy stages through Connecticut and Massachusetts to Boston, in the month of June, was undoubtedly, a very delightful trip to a man who could derive so much pleasure as Jefferson could from nature's own unrivaled attractiveness at that season of the" year, and the arrival of the distinguished stranger in Boston was not heralded Europe as a minister plenipotentiary from the United States in the room of the Hon. John Jay, Esq., who is about to return to America. Gov. Jefferson, //ho has so eminently distinguished himself in the late glorious revolution, is a gentleman of a very amiable character, to which he has joined the most extensive knowledge. He is a mathematician and philosopher as well as a civilian and politician, and the memorable declaration of American independence is said to have been penned by him." The Independent Chronicle of July 1 has this brief allusion to the presence of Mr. Jefferson in Boston: _JJSince our last arrived in town from theTs6uffi"waf<r~His" Excellency Thomas Jefferson, Esq., late governor or Virginia and member of congress, now one of the commissioners for negotiating treaties with foreign powers." The Gazette did not condescend to give Mr. Jefferson any kind of notice, completely ignored him, and so far as there is any record,to the contrary, Gov. John Hancock, then a sick man, it is fair to say, did not extend any official attention from the executive depal^ment. Bu"t Mr. Jefferson himself has left on record some evidence that he did receive a kindly greeting at the hands of Boston's social set of that day, his letter to his friend, Elbridge Gerry, found below, expressing his grateful acknowledgments of this the more pleasure as he was 10 go himself in her.

They also figure thaf'the adverse advertising to the road will amount to not less than $100,000 chine such as is now furnishing Acetylene for six thousand burners in the Grand Union.

Women Net Artistic. •During the last hundred years in France and England the education of women has been more artistic than that of men. For more emphasis is put upon music and drawing in girls' •ichools than in the corresponding institutions for their brothers. And yet ilalton found, in investigating nearly poo cafes, that 28 per cent males and c,o r.r-r cent females showed artistic tant'es. In spite of the larger'opportunity which the modern woman has to develop h^r artistic faculties, the results in the two sexes are practical-' the Hyde syndicate and Intel per cent on the amounts. !y the same.

In fact, the first record of Mr. Jefferson's presence in Boston on this occasion appears in the journal of the house of representatives, under date of June 12, when the following order was passed: '"Ordered, That a chair be assigned for the Hon. Thomas Jefferson Esq., late governor of Virginia, and now one of the ministers of the United States for negotiating commercial treaties, if he is inclined to attend the debate of the house, and that Mr. Osgood (Samuel Osgood of AndoverU Davis (Thomas Davis junior of Plymouth), and Swan (James Swan of Dorchester) be a committee to wait on the gentleman and inform him of this order, who reported that they had attended that service." There is no evidence in the record v t the subsequent proceedings of the ,SMuse that Mr. Jefferson accepted the ;jfcvitation. ^ ~ In his issue of July 8. 1784, editor Isaiah Thomas of the Worcester Spy bad this reference to Mr. Jefferson: Boston, July 1.- "Friday last the Hon. Thomas Jefferson, Esqr, ~hrte—governor of Vlr- P glnia, arrived- here by land from that t f o u . He 1* shortly to embark for pleasant feature of his Boston visit. ' "Boston; July 2,,1784. Dear Sir:—Being to sail from this port to-morrow, I cannot deny myself the pleasure of recalling myself to your recollection for a moment. I have1 impatiently hoped your arrival here before I should depart, but I suspect that the belles of Philadelphia have exercised their power over you, for it is here, I understand, you make your principal delay. When I arrived here I found Mrs. Adams within thirty-six hours of sailing. I had determined to take my passage to France in the first instance, yet the wish to accompany Mrs. Adams would certainly have Induced me to relinquish this, could I within so short a time have prepared for embarkation. I was unable on this account to attend her. "Hearing of no vessel going from any eastern port to France, I had in contemplation to return to New York and take passage in the French packet, which was to sail the 15th instant; but it was suggested to me that 1 could with certainty get ashore on the coast of France somewhere from any vessel bound for London, and as Mr. Tracy had a vessel to sail from hence the third, which would save twelve days in the outsfiL-and_j?robably M m a n y more In the run, 1 engaged my passage in her and with every other possible proof of the sincere esteem with wLich I am, dear sir, your affectionate friend and servant, " "Thomas Jefferson." The anniversary of Independence day in 1784 fell on Sunday, and the program of exercises in Boston, as usual, was observed on Monday. The Old South church was the scene oi the observances, which began at 12 o'clock. Benjamin Hitchbourne, an old-time fervid orator, delivered the address, salutes were fired on the common, dinners were the order of the day throughout the town, the officials regaling themselves at Woart's tavern, others at the American coffee house, while the order of Cincinnati, composed of the ex-officers of the army and the organization of which body Jefferson opposed and won Washing ton to his way of thinking; dined al "Marston's." The marine record shows high water at Boston on July 5. 1784, at 2 o'clock, and at about that hour, tvhen all Boston was at the flood of its celebration of the day, the ship Ceres, Capt.

Japan refused to go to Europe and Russia was unwilling to meet Japan in the far east. The powerful influence of France was exerted to assist Russia in sending the negotiations to some European capital, preferably The Hague, and if not The Hague, then Geneva. Japan preferred Washington and Russia hoped that the influence of the president, who preferred The Hague, would result in the selection of that place. Finally Russia acquiesced and Joined Japan in trie request that Washington be selected. The announcement came in the form of an official statement issued by Sec retary Loeb by direction of the president, as follows: When the two governments were unable to agree upon either Chefoo.or Paris, the president suggested The Hague, but both governments have now requested that Washington be chosen as the place of meeting and the president has accordingly formally notified both governments that Washington will be so selected. Pressure is being brought to bear upon Japan to induce her to fix the sum which she will demand as an indemnity for the pending war at as low a figure in cash as is possible in thp circumstances. This pressure is being exerted especially by European governments, but President Roosevelt, it is intimated .in an important quarter, also has advised the Japanese government that moderation in her demand for a cash indemnity not only would facilitate the negotiation of peace terms, but. would bo regarded by the powers with particular favor. The paymmil b> Russia of any such Boeto* **t*iftts Stirring Up Warm .Protest. . Rev. W. P. Lovett, of the Wealthy Avenue Baptist church, of Grand Rapids, is to take charge of a propaganda in Michigan against the influence of John D. Rockefeller's "tainted money," so injurious to the entire church. The movement is headed by Rev. Herbert Johnson, of Boston, one of the most prominent young Baptist preachers of the country, and even before the Congregationalists took up the discussion of the Rockefeller gift, he had excited comment through the east by his open denunciation ot Rockefeller, so that, as Mr. Lovett pointc out, the protests were begun in the Baptist church. "The silenoe of the Baptist ministers on this question," sRld Mr. Lovett, "has given the people of the country the opinion that our denomination *s a whole is, by reason of acceptance of gifts from Mr. Rockefeller, afraid to voice any objections."

Have Serious Defects—Acetylene Gas, with Its Clear, Unwavering, Yet Soft Flame Cannot Hurt the Eyes Chicago, June 20.—No one can go Into our Bchools or meet a group of children on the street without noticing how large a number of them wear spectacles. The proportion seems to increase yearly, and there are many more who ought to wear glasses. The experience of one tea«her might be duplicated by the score. She knew Alice was inattentive and she thought she was unusually stupid. She said so to the principal and sent a note to the mother, requesting that the child he helped at home if she wished her to keep up with her class. One day after a blackboard explanation, the teacher called upon the child and found that—she had not seen what had been written. She was kept after school and by dint of much sympathetic questioning Miss C. found that Alice had never been able to see what was put on the board and that her head had ached so often and so hard that she frequently failed to hear what was said. Such a condition may be caused by lack of proper food, but in our American homes it is usually due to the poor quality of the artificial light. The yellow, insufficient light of the ordinary kerosene lamp, with its smoky chimney, is about as bad for the eyes as can be imagined. The flickering light from a coal gas jet Is but little better, and even the electric light, brilliant as it usually is, has an unsteadiness due to variations in power, and a glare peculiarly trying to the -delicate nerves of sight. The comparatively new illuminant acetylene gas produces as nl5aTly^iyerJrectran-«rtifie4a4- light as has yet been found. It gives a clear white, unwavering light, very brilliant yet perfectly soft, and so nearly like the rays of the sun that even colors appear as in daylight. Fortunately, acetylene is very easily and cheaply produced, and the simple apparatus necessary can be purchased and Installed in any home at a very moderate cost, and the acetylene can be piped to convenient points in fee house where a light is needed. It is then lighted and extinguished and used exactly like common city gas. Acetylene is rapidly coming into common use in homes, churches, schools and institutions of all kinds, and it is reasonable to expect that as its use in the home increases, there will be fewer defective eyes, particularly among children. Poor eyesight and the many ills resulting therefrom will undoubtedly be much reduced by the use of this new illuminant CHANGED MEANING OF WO FID.

Shakespeare used "nervy" la the same sense. But now that "nerves" no longer mean sinews, "nervous" in the common use has almost reversed its old meaning. In Dr. Johnson's time "nervous" in the modern sense was still only "medical cant."" Now men of "nerve" are very different from men of "nerves." RAILWAf jpgyj^SQIgUTION. At the bieMlaJ convention of the Order of Railway Conductor* recently held at Portland, Oregon, resplutions were unanimously adopted voicing their sentiments as to the effect of proposed railway rate l e g i s l a t e on the 1,300,000 railroad employ**, whom they in part represented. T!*n# resolutions "Indorse the attitude'Vity" President Roosevelt in condemnfBtf secret rebates and other illegalities, and commend the attitude of the heads of American Railways, who, with practical unanimity, have Joined With the president on this question." They then respectfully point out to Congress the "inadvisabillty of legislation vesting In the hands of a commission power over railway rates, now lower by far in . the United States than In any other country," because such regulation would "result In litigation and confusion and inevitably tend to an enforced reduction in rates, Irrespective of the question of the ability of the railroads to stand the red«ction, especially in view of the increased cost of their supplies and materials^' They farther protested against sueh power being given to the present Inter-State Commission because "the proposed legislation is not In harmony with our idea of American jurisprudence, inasmuch as it contemplates, that a single body shall have the right to Investigate, indict, try, condemn and then enforce its decisions at t h e cost of- the carriers, pending appeal, which is manifestly inequitable."" The conductors bas» their demand for only such legislation if any, a i would "secure and Insure Justice and equity and preserve1 eq^tal rights to all parties concerned," on the ground that the low cost of transportation "Is the result of the efficiency of American railway management and operation which have built up the country through constant improvement and development of territory, while at the same time recognition has been given ~ttrthe value of intelligence among employes In contrast to foreign methods, where high freight rates and lowest wages to employes obtain."' In pressing their claim against legislation adverse to their Interests, they point out the fatrt that "the freight rates of this country average only two per cent of the cost of articles to the consumer, thus making the* freight rate so insignificant a factor in the selling price that" numerous standard articles are sold at the same price in all parts of the country."

At Chatham, England, a short ^time ago, a cow was being driven home from market by the purchaser, when it started In pursuit of a little girl named "Dickinson. The girl took refugr in her house, and her mother had barely time to barricade the sitting room door with chairs and a sewing machine when the cow commenced to butt it. The animal then proceeded to stumble upstairs, and in the front bedroom wrought much havoc among the furniture and fittings. A great crowd had by this time assembled in the street Qaae <ot the spectators ran in and opened wide the bedroom window, out of which the cow almost immediately pwi its head and forelegs. Its .hoofs slipping on the zinc-covered roof of t h e bay window, it fell bodily into tbs ^tpeet, to the accompaniment Extravagant Preterit Reajft' l a y ^ t o m r f Heir to Millions. For the baby born with a gold spoon in its mouth and which is to grow up to dine on gold dinner services, there Is a christening cup of gold floating around New York Just now. The cup being valuable, is not made in the form of a handled mug, useful only for Infancy, but like a regular tea or coffee cup with a saucer and spoon to match. The fet was made in Paris upon the order of a grandee of Spain, and was intended as a gift at the christening of the infant son of one of Spain's highest officers. It is in empire design, the cup in graceful lines with a standard and handle raised above the level of the cup at the top. This handle is in the design of a lion, supposedly the lion of Spain. The saucer and spoon agree with the style of the cup. For some reason the grandee, the high officer, or circumstances fell out, and the presentation was never made. Now the cup has drifted to New York, in the hands of private people, and is waiting to be purchased for one of New York's millionaire babiesrfor~T400'-" 8 A V E D C H I L D ' S L I F E . ^ 4 oo DROPS iimrlln. .,1.. .,,,,r ...11 ,: .1i~i'iii :.«iii"'ii.iT.'i inuflTiiTiii.tillllUiiiiiiiiii.

NEWS GOMEZ, CUBAN PATRIOT AND SOLDIER, HAS PASSED AWAY. DIPLOMACY W I L L BE STRAINED WITH HEAVY BURDENS NOW. RUSSIAN STATESMEN HAVE TWO CAUSES OF CHAGRIN T H A T IRR4TATE. Death of Gen. Gomez. General Maximo Gomez died at Havana Saturday evening in , the presence of his family and his old-time friend, Etrada Palma, president of the Republic of Cuba. He leaves a widow, five sons and one daughter. On Saturday the secretary of the treasury dollvered to one of Gen. Gomez's sons a check for $100,000 which had been voted unanimously by congress for the general's benefit and approved by President Palma. This was In addition, to the $50,000 previously voted by congress. Gen. Maximo Gomez, who commanded the Cuban forces during the insurrection which broke out in 1S95 and ended with the complete independence of the island when on May 20, 1902, the control of Cuba was formally transferred to the new Cuban government, was born at Bani, Santa Domingo, in 1S36, and came of a Spanish family. He began life as a cavalry officer in the Spanish army in Santa Domingo and served during the last ocupation of Santa Domingo by Spain.

A New York concern with which the Vernon bank was insured paid all damages, amounting to about $3,500, and the bank is doing business as if nothing had happened. The insurance company, however, has put the Pinkerton detective agency on the trail and arrests are expected soon. All is quiet in the street car situation in Saginaw, the only development being a move by the company to again put the regular running schedule In effect. A full quota of cars is giving service, and while there is little riding, more fares are beings recorded than during the past week. Albert Wendt, employed on the Bearinger building at Saginaw, while at work on the third floor, backedMnto the elevator shaft and fell 30 feet to the bottom of the shaft. The pit was full of water, which saved his life. A badly sprained arm and bruises about the head are his only injuries. "Mrs. Henry Smith and her son Elijah, of St. Clair, were on a fishing trip on Pine river and found a package of "rat biscuits."

A farmer boy out in Pennfleld caught a strange animal In a trap which lie had set for woodchuck, and captured" two young ones that were waiting around for the release of the mother.

Contributions of lumber are being asked for from lumber companies by the governor The Great Game. Franco-German tension is beyond doubt- largely responsible for t h e success of Mr. Roosevelt's pacific efforts. If France and Germany were not within sight of war when M. Delcasse resigned, all the best opinion of journalistic Paris is astray. Rouvier, representative *of French finance, had persuaded the syndicates to withhold aid when St. Petersburg last asked it and when he, known to be a grudging^partisan of the Franco-Russian alliance, informed the Russian government that Germany's course toward Morocco might compel France to invoke Russian aid, with the alternative of throwing up the alliance if that aid were not forthcoming promptly, the advisers of Nicholas saw how deep is the game the German emperor is playing, the game that began with his advice to the czar to send the western frontier regiments to Manchuria. Today Russian statesmen have a two-fold cause of chagrin, defeat by the enemy they, had despised, and betrayed by Emperor William, ever ready for the role of the honest broker, no matter who wins or who loses. Britain is bent upon continuing her entente with France and the Latin states in order to hold Germany in re- Detroit—T!ie r a t t l e market opened <vith a much heavier run in all d i p a r i - incnts than there was ;i week uxo.

An offensive and defensive alliance between London and Tokio is a foregone conclusion, and it means the lordship of Asia.

"Have you no photograph of them— of either of them?" "No. I haven't. But I can tell you something stranger than you ever heard in connection with this very matter. Whether it will help you i.n identifying Ashley 1 can't say. You know I told you they took a house on Main street. Well, shortly after they left it, and before a new tenant was found, the story got afloat that on one of the windows from the outside could be plainly seen the photograph of a man's head and shoulders and those of a woman. The panes are large and the outlines are said to be very dis- -tinct.-They are said toJae of Ashley and his wife, and the theory is that they were looking through the window at the river during a storm and a flash of lightning photographed them indelibly on the glass. The pictures 'cannot be seen from the inside, but that they can .from the outside is vouched for by a good many people in town. I don't understand photography myself, and I haven't been up to see the pictures, but the cashier of the Somerset bank has, and he says they are excellent likenesses of Ashley and his wife.** "I should like to go up," said Bruce. "So should I," said Mr. Hayes, "and if you will call again after business hours—for I must go to my office now —I will take you there behind my bays." Bruce gladly accepted the friendly -nffnr nnH \n q fpw h n ^ r s w a s r a p i d l y driving through the principal streets of Valparaiso after the handsomest span of. horses in the city. Calling a boy to hold them after a short drive, Mr. Bruce and Mr. Hayes approached a handsome house on Main street, and easily got permission to examine the window which bore the photograph. ir^.vas on the first floor, and lighted the_„.<iining room. The Ashleys dined late, and they, perhaps, arose from the table, probably after dark, or it may be they turned down the lights the whether Mr. Hartwell would take pains to learn without a doubt what beard Hamilton wore two years ago during his customary May journey—if he had long whiskers in addition to a mustache. Also, Bruce desired to know the exact date when Hamilton left Grovedale, whether it was as early as the 10th, for it now appeared that Ashley came to Valparaiso the 13th. Mr. Hastings, on the receipt of this letter from the detective, was much perplexed. How could he gain the desired knowledge without going to Mrs. Hamilton herself? Mr. Hastings waa a straightforward man. To approach her with. subterfuge or concealments HA repugnant t.pftt he would not entertain the idea for a moment! He made various futile inquiries and finally decided to call upon Mrs. Hamilton and plainly state the case to her, asking at the same time for the information, if she chose to give it. He did so, though not without extreme reluctance. Mrs. Hamilton received him in a polite, if somewhat distant, manner, and after a few commonplaces, Mr. Hastings broached the object of his call. , "But please do not consider my request to be in the least imperative. There is no coercion about it." "You are very kind, Mr. Hastings," returned Constance, bending her fair face, upon which the shadow of a great grief plainly lay. "But I will answer you truly and readily, for the truth can hurt no one. Vane never wore whiskers, and I can tell you, by consulting my diary for 18?7, the very day he went away." She arose from her seat, approached the writing desk, which stood in the same room,-and took from a till a pile of old diaries. Choosing the right one, she sat down again and turned to the records of May. "Vane and I took a long drive to-day. The weather was perfect, and-Vane complimented me, or rather my new hat; said it was 'most becoming,'" was the record for May 1st. Only a commpnplace entry, but it never while she 11 drea lived, and t her e d-have tfr of h a v l « r f the confi suffer the shame, had a father what dence of a trusting community. Could she bear it to know this were really true of kirn? Could she bear it to know he were dead? C H A P T E R V I . Tony'* Discovery. Mr. Bruce was nearly convinced of the truth of his theory when he received Mr. Hastings' letter. "Something more than a coincidence," he muttered, on reading that Mr. Hamilton left Grovedale on the 9th instan^. Bruce", as a last resort, again went to Canada himself, got detectives there to aid him, and as thorough a searefc through the province was mad* M could be effected in the time he gave himself for it. Several times he fancied himself to be on the right traij, but subsequent investigations proved tbe fallacy of first suppositions. Still he could never quite rid himself of the belief that he saw Hamilton, or Ashley, on one of the streets in Montreal -day-or- two after-he reached the city.. But the man vanished so quickly that Bruce was amazed. In full view, on a not too crowded street, then gone! It was*, like magic. The man could not have entered a store nor vanished in a cellar. There was no reason why he need think himself under surveillance. Bruce spent the day In the immediate neighborhood of the mysterious disappearance, but to no purpose, and at last he reluctantly owned to himself that he might have been mistaken. Anxious as he was to succeed In his undertaking, and earn the reward offered for finding Hamilton, or rather being the means of returning him to Grovedale, Bruce was at last compelled to desist from his task. Much time and money had already been spent, and other business was pressing. Constance still continued to live in her own home with her uncle and two In Training. "My boy Ezra is home from college for a week. He'* a great athlete, you know." "So I've heard." "Yes. Well, I thought I'd test him a little an' I didn't know no better way than to set him to sawin 'wood*' "Good idea " *4Well, I thought so.

Be this as it may, the outlines of two figures, a man's and a woman's, were plainly in-' dicated on the pane. His arm appeared to be about her shoulders, her head rested lightly on his breast, and a glorious veil of hair reaching down out of sight covered her right shoulder. The curves of her features, the droop of her form, showed her to be both pretty and graceful. "Nora Ashley, as I live!" ejaculated Mr>Hayes with great excitement. 'Nora, did you say?"- "Yes, that is what Ashley called her, and that is Ashley himself." Bruce scanned the figure with more interest even than he had the beautiful Nora, but never having known Hamilton personally he could not tell whether it closely resembled him or not. In a general way he thought It looked like the photograph he had, and which Mr. Hayes had already declared to look like Ashley. The description given in the advertisement also agreed with what might be said of Ashley, exsept that the latter, when in Valparaiso, wore long whiskers. Soon after the two men separated with mutual good words, and Bruce, going straight to his room at the Willoughby House, wrote a detailed account of what he had learned at Valparaiso regarding Ashley, the bank defaulter, who he was inclined to believe could be no other than Hamilton himself. Indeed, the presence of the woman, called Nora by Ashley, and having emerald colored hair, seemed almost proof positive. After detailing the account, Bruce went on to say, or ratter to ask, gave Constance a start to read it, for she remembered the day well, how happy they were. But she turned another leaf resolutely, then still another and handed the book to Mr. Hastings, pointing to the sentence, "Vane went away earlier this year than usual. I tried to coax him not to go'until next week, but to na purpose." The date was the 9th of May. "Thank you, Mrs. Hamilton," said Mr. Hastings, handing her the book; but his hand was quite unsteady as he did so. "'Is that what you wished" to know?" she asked. "No—yes," he said, greatly depressed. Mr. Hastings had refrained from making known to Mrs. Hamilton the contents of Bruce's letter relating to Ashley, and he said nothing now. She evidently hoped he would teli her more, but could not bring herself to ask him, for, she thought, "if there were any good news he would tell me, and If there Is nothing but bad I could not bear it now, I have had so much. OVane! Vane!" This was her heart's cry. but outwardly she was calm until Mr. Hastings went away. Then she sat down overwhelmed with a nameless dread. What misery, what misery, was hers! If the newspapers spokjB true, what was she but a deserted wife, the wife of a bank defaulter, who had forsaken her for another woman! If it was not as was believed, then Vane was detained somewhere against his win, either by force or by severe illness, or he was dead. Dead! with the clods of opprobrium on his confined form!

The strain on his nerves and temper during the investigations left an unpleasant impression, for he was sensible that for several days he • had been looked upon with suspicion. This fact placed him in sympathy with Hamilton, and ho had more than once been heard to say that he believed the missing cashier to be an innocent man. He had been informed by President Hastings of Bruce's discoveries in the West. He had not called to see Mrs. Hamilton since he carried her the ominous statement of her husband"s return to the bank.
