Saturday, App. 5 We Offer JOHN W. HABBIS. 'It is with deep and genuine sorrow that we announce in this issue of the DISPATCH the death of one of the most energetic and estimable citizens of the Village of Pinckney, in the person of John W. Harris, who died at his home at 10 o'clock Saturday eve ning after a lingering illness of nearly eight months. Surrounded by the members of his family, who watched bis peaceful transititon to the life beyond, fortified by the last holy rites with which the Catholic church prepares the departing soul for its journey, a faithful and Steadfast adherent of that faith, a truly virtuous type of his sex and of .fatherhood closed an example of Godly life and passed quietly, painlessly to his great reward. The parents of the deceased was natives of Ireland. In 1835 they left tbSir old home in Erin's Isle and crossed the Atlantic to s^ek their fortune in the new world. They first wended their way to Detroit. Soon after arriving in Detroit they secured from the G o v e r n m e n t ' a patent of about 160 acres of land two miles south of the village of Pinckney. Here like other pioneers, they cut down the forests and built for themselves a beautiful home. The deceased after his fathers death got control of the old homestead by purchasing the claims of the other heirs, which consisted of four girls, and four bovs, two of which are living viz; Mrs. James Morgan of Ypsilanti and Mrs. M. O'Connol of Jackson. Mi, Harrjs was born on the old homestead July 25 1839. In 1867 was united in marriage to Agnes morgan of Unadilla. Mr. and Mrs. Harris began keeping house immediately on the old homestead which consists of as good a 200 acres of land as there is in the township. One year ago he quit farming and moved his family to the village. Besidbs the widow the following child ren are left to mourn and pray for the happy repose of the soul of their beloved father: H. C. of Cripple Creek, Colorado and James M. who occupys the old homestead. The funeral was held from St. Mary's church at 10:30 Wednesday morning. Edward A. Bowman, DEPARTMENT STORE . . . . .

P V , ' ' . • - ' 9to*j«eat J£a*t«r Dlsecmree Preached from Corinthians, "Death U Swallowed Up »n VJctory'—Why Should W« Doubt Ttiat Cod Can Raise Us from Death? (Copyright, 1S02. Louis Klopsch, N. Y.) Washington, March 30.—The Christian view of death as the entrance to a fuller life is presented in this Easter discourse by Dr. Talmage from the text I Cor. xv, 54,."Death is swallowed up In victory.** About 1,870 Easter mornings have wakened the earth. The royal court of the Sabbaths is made up of fifty - two. Fifty-one are princes in the royal household, but Easter is queen. She wears richer diadem, she sways a more Jeweled scepter, and in her smjie nations are irradiated. How welcome she is when, after a harsh winter and late spring, she seems to step out of the enow bank rather than the conservatory, to come out of the north instead of the south, out of the arctic rather than the tropics, dismounting from the icy equinox, but welcome this queenly day, holding high in her right hand the wrenched off bolt of Christ's sepulchtr and holding high in her left hand the key to _j& tht^eiiieTerles te^efrrkte&dom. My text is an ejaculation. It is spun out. of halleluiahs. Paul wrote on in his argument about the resurrection and observed all the laws of logic, but when he came to write the words of the text his fingers and his pen and the parchment on wnich he wrote took Are, and he cried out. "Death is swallowed up in victory!" It Is an exciting thing to see an army routed and flying. You have read of the French falling back from Sedan, of Napoleon's track of 90,000 corpses in the snowbanks of Russia, of the retreat of our armies from Manassas or of the five kings tumbling over the rocks of Beth horan with their armies while the hailstorms of heaven and the swords of Joshua^s host struck them with their fury. In tny_ text is a worse discomfiture. It seems that a black giant proposed to conquer the earth. He gathered for his hpsts all the aches and pains and malarias' and cancers and distempers and epidemics of the ages. He marched them down, drilling them in the northwest wind and amid the slush of tempests. He threw up barricades of grave, mound. .He pitched jeat of charnal house. Some of the troops marched with, slow tread commanded by consumptions,, some in double quick command of pneumonias. Some* be took by fang besiegeraent of evil habit and some by one stroke of the battleax of casualty. With bony hand he pounded at the door of hospitals and sickrooms, and won ail the victories in all the great battlefields of aD of the five continents. Forward, march! ordered the conqueror of conquerors, 'and all the generals and commanders in chief and all the presidents and kings and eultans and czars dropped under the feet of his war charger. But one Christmas night his antagonist was born. v A* most of the plagues and sicknesses and despotisms come out of the east, it was appropriate that the m?w conqueror should come out of the sine quarter. Power is given him to awaken att the fallen of all the centuries and of all lands and marshal them against the black giant. Fields have .already been won, but the last day of the world's existence will see the decisive battle. When Christ shall lead forth* his two brigades, the brigade of the risen dead and the brigade of the eelestial host, the black giant will fall back, and the brigade from the riven eepulchers will take him from beneath, and the brigade of descending immortals will take him from above, and death shall be swallowed up in victory. The old antagonist is driven back into mythology with all the lore about Stygian ferry and Charon with oar and "boat Melrose abbey and Kenilworth castle are no more in ruins than is the sepulcher. We shall have no more to do with death than we have with the cloakroom at a governor's or a president's levee. We stop at such cloakroom and leave in charge of a servant our overcoat, our overshoes, our outward apparel, that w e j n a y n o t be impeded in the brilliant round of the drawing room. Well, my friends, when we go out of this world we are going to a King's banquet and to a reception of monarchs, and at the door of the tomb we leave the cloak of flesh and the wrappings with which we meet the storms of this world. At the close of an earthly reception, tinder the brush and broom of the porter, the coat or hat may be handed to us better than when we resigned it, and the cloak of humanity will finally be returned to us improved and brightened and purified and glorified. You and I do not want our bodies returned u they are now. We want to get Ti4 of all their weakness* and all "•tftfi* *as*«pflbjimes to fatigue and all itheir slowness of locomotion. We want them put ^rough a chemistry of soil and heat aod cptd1 aid changing seasons, out of which God will reconstruct them as much better than they are BOW as the body of the rosiest and healthiest child that bounds over the lawn in Central Park, is better than the sickest patient in Bellevue hospital. But, as to our soul, we will cross Tight over, not waiting for obsequies, independent of obituary, into a. state in every way better, with wider room and velocities beyond computation, the dullest of us into companionship with the very best spirits in their very best mood, in the very parlor of the universe, the four walls burnished, and paneled and pictured and glorified with all the splendors that the infinite God in all the ages has been able to invent. Victory! This view, of course, makes it of but little importance whether we are cremated or sepultured. If the latter is dust to dust, the former is ashes to ashes. If any prefer incineration, let them have it without cavil or protest. The world may become so crowded that cremation may be universally adopted by law as well as by general consent. Many of the mightiest and best spirits have gone through this process. Thousands and tens of thousands of God's children have been cremated—P. P. Bliss and wife, the evangelistic singers, cremated by accident at Ashtabula bridge; John Rodgers, cremated by J2£rsgc4}t_ion_L Latimer and Ridley, cremated at Oxford; Pothlnus and BTahdina, a slave, and Alexander, a physician, and their comrades cremated at the order of Marcus Aurelius; at least a hundred thousand of Christ's disciples cremated, and there can be no doubt about the resurrection of their bodies. Whether out of natural disintegration or cremation we shall get that luminous, buoyant, gladsome, transcendent, magnificent, inexplicable structure called the resurrection body. You will have it; I will have it. I say to you to-day, as Paul said to Agrippa, "Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you that God should raise the dead?" That far up cloud, higher than the hawk flies, higher than the eagle flies, what is it made of? Drops of water from a river, other drops from a lake, still other drops from a stagnant pool, but now embodied in a eloud and kindled by the sun. If God can make such a lustrous cloud out of water drops, many of ttiem soil-, ed and impure and fetched from miles away, can he not tarnsport the fragments of a human body from the ear^i. and out of them build a radiant body* Cannot God, who owns all the material out of which bones, muscle and flesh are made, set them up again if they have falien? If a manufacturer of telescopes drops a telescope on.the floor and It breaks, can he not mend it again so you can see through it? And if God drops the human eye into the dust, the, eye which he originally fashioned, can he not restore it? Where did all this silk come from— the silk that adorns your persons and your homes? In the hollow of a staff of Greek missionary brought from China to Europe the progenitors of those worms that now supply the silk markets of many nations. The pageantry of bannered host and the luxurious articles of commercial emporium blazing out from the silkworms. And who shall be surprised it out of this insignificant earthly body, this insignificant earthly life, our bodies unfold into; something worthy of the coming eternities? Put silver into diluted niter, and it dissolves. Is the silver gone forever? No. Put in some pieces of copper, and the silver reappears. If one force dissolves, another force organizes. Ever and anon there are instances of men and women entranced. A trance is death followed by resurrection after a few days; total suspension of mental power and voluntary action. Rev. William Tennent, a great evangelist of the last generation, of whom Dr. Archibald Alexander, a man far from being sentimental, wrote in most eulogistic terms—Rev. William Tennent seemed to die. His spirit apparently left the body. People came in day after day and s}id, "He is dead, he is dead." But the soul that fled returned, and Will Tennent lived to write what he had seen while his soul was gone. It may be found some time that what is called suspended animation or comatose state is brief death, giving the soul an excursion into thenext^oTidrfTonr which it comes back, a furlough of a few hours granted from the conflict of life to which it must return. Physiologists tell us that while the most of oar bodies are built with such wonderful economy that we can spare nothing, and the loss of a finger is a hinderment and the injury of a toe joint makes us lame, still that we have two or three useless physical apparatuses, an,d no anatomist or physiologist has, ever teen able to tell us what they are good for. They may be the foundation of the resurrection body, worth nothing to us in this state to be indispensably valuable in the next state. The Jewish rabbis and the scientists of our day, have found out that there are two or three superfluities o? body that are English Clergyman Live Long. There are 103 incumbents .ot churches in England who have occupied the same livings for fifty years or more, and of these twelve have held their places for stxfcy years. Their average''income amounts to 11,300 a year, and in sixteen* cases the income, •after fifty years' continuous service, u between the limits of $360 and $760 a year. • jff;l>J»],i'kii'''' "~r ^ - ^l^S: something gloriously suggestive of anothtrstate* ».i >,> / ; i ><- I called at my friend's house one summer day. I found the yard all piled up with the rubbish ot .carpenter's and mason's work. The door was off. The-plumbers had torn up the floor. The- roof was being lifted in cupola. All the pictures were gone, and the paper hangers were doing their work. All the modern improvements were being Introduced into Chat dwelling. There was not a room In the house fit to live in at that time, although a month before when I visited that house everything was so beautiful I could not have suggested an Improvement My friend had gone with his family to the Holy Land, expecting to come back at the end ot six months, when the building was to be done. And, oh, what was his joy when at the end of six months he returned and found the old house had been enlarged and improved and glorified. That is your body. It looks well now—all the rooms filled with health, and we could hardly make a suggestion. But after awhile your soul will go to the Holy Land, and while you are gone the old house of your tabernacle will be entirely reconstructed from cellar to attic, and every nerve, muscle and bone and tissue and artery must be hauled over, and the old structure will be burnished and adorned and raised and cupolaed and enlarged, and all the improvements of heaven introduced, and you -will move into it on resurrection, day. "For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens." Oh, what a day when body and soul meet again! They are very fond of each other. Did your body ever have a pain and your soul not pity it, or your body have a joy and your soul not re-echo it, or, changing the question, did your soul ever have any trouble and your body not sympathize with it, growing wan and weak under the depressing influence? Or did your soul ever have a gladness but your body celebrated it with kindled eye and cheek and elastic step? Surely God never intended two such good friends to be long separated. And so when the world's last Easter morning shall come the soul will descend, crying, "Where is my body?" And the body will ascend, saying, "Where is my soul?" And the Lord of the resurrection will bring them together, and It will be a perfect soul in a perfect body, introduced by a perfect Christ into a perfect heaven. Victory! Do you wonder that on Easter day we swathe bur churches with garlands? Do you wonder we celebrate, it with the most consecrate*-Voice ^ of song that we can invite, with the deftest Angers on organ and cornet and with doxologies that beat these arches with the billows of sound as the sea smites the basalt at Giant's Causeway? Only the bad disapprove of the , resurrection. A cruel heathen warrior heard Mr. Moffatt, the missionary, preach about the resurrection, and he said to the missionary, "Will my father rise in the last day?" ,fcYes," said the missionary. "Will aR the dead in battle rise?" said the cruel chieftain. "Yes," said the missionary. Then said the warrior: "Let me hear no more about the resurrection; there can be no resurrection; there shall be no resurrection. I have slain thousands in battle. Will they rise?" Ah, there will be more to rise on that day than those whose crimes have never been repented of will want to see! But for all others who allowea Christ to be their pardon and their life and their resurrection it will be a day of victory. The thunders of the last day will be the salvo that greets you into harbor. The lightnings will be only the torches of triumphal procession marching down to escort you home. The burning worlds flashing through immensity will be the rockets celebrating your coronation on thrones where you will reign forever and forever and forever. Where is death? What have we to do with death? As your reunited body and soul swing off from this planet on that last day you will see deep gashes all up and down the hills, deep gashes all through the valleys, and they will be the emptied graves, they will be the abandoned sepulchers, with rough ground tossed on each side of them, and slabs will lie uneven on the rent; hillocks, and there will be fallen monuments and cenotaphs, and then for the first time you will appreciate the full exhilaration of the text, "Death is swallowed up in victory." Hail the Lord of earth and heaven! Praise to thee by both be given. . Thee we greet triumphant now; Hail the resurrection thou!

There was a profound silence for a few moments, when one bright-eyed little fellow said manfully: "No, mister, be didn't He was lyin* down by the brew'ry with a bone—Just gnawln' it, ye know—'nd we sort a got to pleggin', 'nd pesterin' him, 'nd 'twas when Wallie snatched the bone that he •napped." "Have you time to listen to an old man's story?" Instantly sticks and stones were dropped, though two of the lads tried to put on an indifferent front Driving his horse into the shade of the building, the stranger began: "You boys do not realize it any more than I did when I was a boyi but nevertheless it la true that every day of our lives we write out a page In the book of life; and when one is old he has a great Jeal of time in which he moat look back and read over these pages, and when I saw you tormenting that helpless dog it seemed as if some unseen finger swiftly turned the leaves of my life back to a page—a page which I wish to God could be blotted out forever, but it never can. No, boys, we may be sorry for things, may get forgiveness for them, may even forget them for a time; but if we do a wrong, it is somenow bound to rise up before us at timet when we least expect it I bold that in this world we never get entirely away from our wrong doing. But I did not intend to preach a sermon, but te> tell you a story. "As a boy, 1 was naturally cruel; 1 delighted to rob birds' nests, torment cats and dogs, and smaller children. As I grew older 1 helped my father on the farm. I was rebuked for my abuse of the animals, and my mother used to aay that if she bad her way I would never get a horse to go anywhere. Also, as I grew older, I became fond of hunting, and spent many days with my noble dog Stanley in the woods. I professed to be very good to him; but of a truth 'the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel/ and when I think of the whippings and kicks the noble fellow received from me while, as 1 called it, I was 'training him/ I am amazed at the affection he gave me in return; bat the worst was yet to come. "He bad never been a good retriever. Yon know what that ia, of course—a dog that will go anywhere after you have shot your game, and bring it to you without mussing or tearing it is the least I had repeatedly beaten Stealer for hia failure in this line, though I knew it came from the fact that hia former master had whipped him for carrying borne dead chickens, or anything like that he found in the neighborhood daring his puppy days, true to hia retrieving instinct One day, while shooting ducks, I said to him: 'Now, sir, you'll bring me that bird out there on that island or I'll kill you; do you understand it?' 1 shall always thtok he did. from tha troubled look He gave me, sad the pleading *ay i s wales he crept to my *lde and attempted flp strata my hand, "Roughly I ahook him off sad hade him go fetch tha hind..

Boys, I'll never, no never, forget it, and I expect to meet it when I stand before God's bar of Justice." , The stranger paused here for a little ere be found voice to go on. t "presently be grew so helpless from cold, struggles and blows that he let himself drift beyond my reach, but frenzied with rage, I dropped my gun and snatching up a long pole, I leaned over the water's edge to strike him. As the pole came down some sod or root under my foot gave way, and I found myself struggling in the coldest water I was ever in; but it was only for a few brief moments, for, with the icy hands of death already tightening about his faithful heart that noble dog roused himself at sight of my peril, worked toward me as best he could, and with a last desperate effort, born of love and fidelity, he dragged me to the shore, sank down, and with a few short gasps, was dead. "Chined and stupefied, yet perfectly conscious of the enormity of my sin, I watched by his side, gazing into the Still open eyes, and alternately cursing myself and calling him names of endearment that he had never heard in life. "How long it was before another hunter's voice recalled me to myself and condition, I do not know, but X know that during that time the sufferings of my mind made me unconscious of my bodily suffering. I was helped home, but for many weeks lay between life and death, and they said all of my unconscious ravings were of Stanley and that awful transaction by the lakeside. I have been a different person since, but I can never, in life, get away from that page in the book. "You understand what I mean now. and all I have to say further is, boys, be kind to every living creature, and If you can do any good by repeating an old man's story, tell it again and again." There was silence in the little group as once more the carriage wheels rolled noiselessly away; but presently the largest boy took some pennies from his pocket and bade two of the smaller ones "run to the market and get a good meaty boae." On their return it was laid where the stray dog could smell it, and then the boys quietly dispersed, each to tell some one else the old man'8 story, and put in practice, we trust, his admonition, "Be kind to every living creature."—Practical Farmer. • * • MUOH aftffIY FOR CANDY.

[ Letter of Restitution to Cleveland "Sometimes the remorse of those who have cheated the United States is in inverse ratio to the sum of the fraud, says H. E. Armstrong in Ainslee's, President Cleveland once received a letter from a child that must have moved him deeply, for, doubtless, it was laid before him as a curiosity. "'Dear President' it ran, 'I am in a dreadful state of mind and I thought r would write and tell you all., About two years ago—as near as I can recollect it was two years ago—I used two postage stamps that had been used on letters before—perhaps more than two stamps, but I can only remember doing it twice.

"The treasury department does not know whether this letter was written by a boy or girl, but the internal evidence of expression assures us it was a girl. Imagine a boy being 'in a dreadful state of mind' about fooling Uncle Sam with a couple of canceled stamps. The urchin might regret he had wronged his country and make amends, but the crime would not oppress his mind and rack his conscience with intolerable torments. Surely the culprit was a girl.

The hay market riot which resulted in a direct attack upon the represenatives of law was hatched in the saloons of Chicago The assassin of McKinley made his headquarters in a saloon of Buffalo and he was an ex-saloon keeper. The saloonkeepers, with a very few exceptions, are the most godless and an arch ris tic of any class of men on American soil. A noted judge lately said to the writter: "There is not one saloon in a thousand that obeys the law, or that intends to. The saloonkeeper does nothing to respect law that he is not compelled to." The Anti-Saloon League is not a frantic movement but it challenges your judgement and, on the basis of facts, demands that you wake up and take an interest in the preservation of your own social life and government.

As the disease progresses the animal becomes delirious and easily excitable. In many cases the animal will stand with the head or breast against a wall or manger and push. Animals will often eat when badly affected apparently from force of habit, not because they are hungry. In some cases animals will die in a few hours after they are first noticed ailing.

To have concentrated every energy to the amendment of adverse influences and then have some eager, energetic friend come upon you suddenly and ask you, much ns if waking you from a lethargy, "Why don't you do thus and so?" is a severe test of your temper and your affection for the speaker.

"I am innocent, as God knows, ! but they have declared me to be a , thief, and I must go to jail. We have i been poor, my beloved, but we have .been honest, and never until today have we been ashamed to look men in the face. If the sahib judge had been fair minded, tkis disgrace would not have come, but he took the word of i liars and refused to hear me. He is not i a just judge." ; They would have put the elephant at work under another mahout, but he escaped from tho camp that night and took to the jungle. Guya was thrown into jail among a lot of malefactors, and within two weeks there was a quarrel in which he was stabbed to death. That was the end of him so far as any one at Rewah was concerned. The district judge had a long circuit and many cases, and it was two months before he approached Rewah again. ; Night overtook hlxn while he was yet twelve miles away, and with his servants he made camp by the roadside. Wh'en he had eaten his supper, he drew a little way from the camp and sat down on a stone to smoke his pipe. Tt was a bright moonlight uiprht, without breeze onongh to move a leaf, and the patter of a hyena's feet on the bard baked earth could have been heard a quarter of a mile away. So strong was the moonlight that a prowling jackal could be made out along the edge of the Jungle forty rods away. There was no fear of tiger or panther, and6 the judge was peacefully content a s he smoked and cast a careless eye about him. He had not been seated ten minutes when an elephant moved out of the fringe of the jungle and advanced upon him. The great beast moved almost without sound. His feet made no more noise than those of a fox. One acting as sentinel for the camp would have seen him at once ee he moved out, but the icine has been sold for many years in all civilized countries, and we wish to correspond with yon and send you one of our books free of cost.

Any hoj»e that Bert Harrington may have had of securing a pardou has vanished into thin air. Petitions were being circulated lu many parts of the state and the outlook for securing the release of the man who killed Jesse Hooker, whom he found occupying a room with his wife, were exceedingly bright. Monday. imwever. it was discovered that he still loves the woman who betrayed him and caused bin financial ruin, and that he was corresponding with her. A letter which he had intrusted to n man who worked for him fell into the hand* of Ed Farrington. the prisoner's brother. It was couched in endearing terms, and as soon as ho had finished reading it Ed Farrington announced that he would have nothing more to do with the attempt to secure his brother's pardon, and ordered all the petitions called in. Al think u n d e r t h e dreuuwtances," he said, "the best thing Bert can do is to serve his sentence. By the time lie comes out of prison the love which lie still bears for the worthless woman may have worn away—yes. for his own sake I think now that he should serve his full term. I told him what I had done and he was very bitter toward me at first, but before I left him he handed mo his watch and other valuables, and said, kEd, perhaps you'r* right.' " The friends of the imprisoned man are sore at the way he has "thrown'' them, a* they call It. and will d i nothing more to secure his release, which they were confident they could have accomplished.within the next 30 days.

Taylor, the young eastern millionaire who was found guilty of complicity in the Grand Rapids water deal, appeared before Judge Xewuham in the Superior Court Friday afternoon, and submitting to the sentence of the court, paid a tine of $2,0()0 and was released from custody. Taylor is [the Connecticut man who sent $100,000 to Grand Rapids to be. used in securing a water contract with the city, and although he claimed that all but $7,500 was afterwards returned to him it is believed that he received but a small portion of it back, if any.

The body of an eight or nine months* old baby was found in a basket in the river at Grand Rapid* by Claude Brown, a fisherman, Thursday afternoon, and turned over to Coroner Wright. The baby was covered by a coffee sack and the basket weighted down with stones.

It seemed that the captain bwaed a house far off in the neighborhood of "West Bromptpn, and into thii he had moved the wreck of hli fortunes, including his family. The marquis waited a certain length of time. '' "". •' '•' " • • ' • : ' Then one' afternoon he appeared at the new home of the Liverraores. To himself he declared many times that he intended this visit as a positive means of increasing his hold upon the captain's wife, over whom he seemed to be exerting some peculiarly hypnotic power, with the eventual aim In view of inducing her to leave home and seek some asylum on the continent For years he had looked forward to this same moment with the keenest anticipation; for years he had in his mind gone over every little detail, had seen her surprise and alarm, with his own great triumph, as he gent his shafts home with the arm of ' ample revenge; y_etx. strange to say, he did not approach the subject with the eagerness he had expected; the feverish thrill was only conspicuous b y its absence, and he even started guiltily when from some distant part of the rambling old structure a peal of childish laughter was borne to his ears; there was something so condemnatory in the merry sound- By degrees he brought the subject around to where he wanted It, and the manner In which he accomplished this declared that his strategic pjdwers had not waned a particle. "Have you had any American friends?" he asked. "Yes, one," came the rather confused reply, and the listener knew he had caused her mind to revert to that unhappy past about which she even . usually avoided thinking. 'Pardon me; but I once knew a poor fellow, an artist, out in Mexico, who said his had been well acquainted with Captain Livermore's wife," he went on deliberately. "An artist," she echoed, looking pained, and yet showing an eagerness in her voice. "Yes; by name Jack. I chanced to 1o him several favors, and, he eveu confided his history to me. Poor fellow, he had suffered bitterly." "Confided to you—then you know—" in alarm. "That you and he were once betrothed— yes. That while he labored unceasingly in the hope of gaining fame and fortune, your love for him began to grow cold. He had been the meanb' of reconciling you to your proud old English grandfather. In the whirl of society you met Captain Livarmore, then the lion of the hour. You forgot to write to the man who believed in you as he did in Heaven. He came to London, unable to breathe autsido your presence. Then you rrushed him by declaring that while you stfll loved him, you loved position still more, and that you had agreed to marry the captain." Fedora's head had fallen on her wildly heaving bosom, but she neither looked up nor uttered a word as yet, being too stunned as the tremendous revelation was forcing itself upon her mind. He went on pitilessly! "Jack sought a quarrel with the man who had robbed him of all he had on earth—perhaps you never kn°\v of it, but they met at dawn in the deadly dnello, each determined to kill the other. The captain, as they advanced toward each other, fired first and only Inflicted a wound. He was then at Jack's complete mercy, since he was allowed the privilege of walking up as close as he pleased and sending a ball through the heart of hi.-, adversary.'* Fedora groaned, but never moved. "The captain was no coward; believing his hour had.come, he deliberately opened his coat and awaited the fatal shot, his eyes looking into those of the man he had wronged without knowing it. Twice Jack took aim. but each time he failed to pull the trigger. Finally he raised his pistol, fired In the air and fled from the rcen*4." For the first time she raised her head and looked at him, her troubled face marked by conflicting emotions. "Then came the wedding, which poor Jack saw from the organ loft, enduring the tortures of the damned while the woman whom heaven had given to him was united by law to man she did not love. "Then he fled from Vondon as from a place accursed and sought fortune's smiles upotaa new field, hating women because one had been false to her rows, and always hugging to his heart the resolution to some day return and take full satisfaction for that treachery. "That was Jack's story — doubtloaa other men have suffered in the same way from a woman's hand, but none more cruelly. And yet It seemed that fortune took a strange delight in compensating him his loes uy throwing into his hands the most wonderful treasure ever known, surpassing all tales from the days of Ophir and Solomon down to the present. More than this, he was given power and made the head of the Central American republic whither fate had drifted him. "Thus, when Ave years had passed, rich beyond the wildest dreams, made a noble of Spain because of some financial assistance he had given the government at Madrid, Jack came back to London with the full determination to repay the debts he owed, at compound interest, down to the last penny." She was looking at him now with fear-haunted eyes, looking at him as one might gaze upon some dreadful spectre of the past. "You—are—Jack!" she said, slowly, as if almost unable to grasp the idea at once. "I am that once miserable wretch. Having embarked upon my campaign, I lost no time In making your husband's acquaintance. It was my hand that, in a fair and honorable way, stripped him of all he possessed. That is only a beginning." "Jack! Jack! Have you'no mercy?" she groaned, wringing her hands wildly. "EMd you have any when you so coolly turned me down to stay in the mine, while upon my shoulders you mounted to a position in society and gave yourself to a man you never loved? I know all you would say, and be sure, I have steeled my heart against all arguments. What I seek is only justice—a fair equivalent. I have suffered, God only knows how much. It is your turn." He looked like a man of stone, upon whom pleading and tears would be wasted. Fedora attempted neither at first— she seemed to act and speak as if in a dream, for his, influence, whatever it sprang from, dominated her personality to a remarkable extent Had it been so in those days of yore Fedora would never have willingly given him up. "You speak of heaven in the same breath with vengeance—surely you cannot believe, Jack, that God approves of such things. I did wrong you, oh, most grievously; but I have bitterly repented it ever since, and hoped the day might come when I could tell you BO. Often I have wept to remember your despair. It has been the one black spot upon my life, and kept me from being truly happy. But, Jack, won't you forgive if you can never forget—see, I plead with you; hold this wretched remembrance no longer against me. Be my friend, my brother. You already respect my husband; why be the means of his ruin?" "While I cannot forget, I must not forgive. You have not yet begun to know what suffering means. When the world seems dark and your eoul prays for death " "But, Jack, stop; consider; you cannot have revenge upon me'without injuring my children," she said, suddenly remembering his weakness of old, and how a child had never appealed in vain so long as he had a sou left. This was a harder task than the other, and the indomitable marquis was compelled to grit his teeth in the endeavor to stem the signs of retreat that threatened to overwhelm him. "I regret exceedingly that they must suffer, for I am not that cruel to desire through their hold on your heart to inflict pain on you; but as I. an innocent party, once paid the penalty of your sin, so they. too. must inherit the legacy." "Is there no way In which you may be satisfied without the burden falling on them?" "I know of none. They must suffer when you do, all being members of one family. It is fate." "Jack, have mercy!—see, on my knees I beg you to forgive. It is true I wronged you most fearfully. God knows. I am wretchedly sorry. But out of that wrong has come your bright fortune, and, perhaps, Jack, some more worthy woman may fill the place in your heart I once occupied. Forget the past and live for the future. Grasp them before they have flown. Rise above this spirit of revenge upon a weak, wretched woman, who in her thoughtlessness did you harm and lived to repent. Already you have as you say brought ruin upon us. and cast us out from society. For that 1 care little; but for God's sake, leave me the love of my husband, my cnlldren." It waa enough to melt a heart of ice, and reason combined with emotion in the argument Had not the marquis threshed this same «traw himself almost daily—had it been thrust suddenly upon him, he must, have- been fairly qtarwhelm(ed;:; "'*;, ., " It waa n o t his design that Fedora should see any slgn>ot weakness in his manner, and lie maintained the same passionless exterior b e had shown through the whole interview. "I promise nothing! Only this I say, that your chiidreii have doubtless saved you from a fate, that might have come upon you. I do not relent, I simply change my tactics, and for their sakes snare you that humiliation, that shame. What further means of punishment I may decide to invoke you will know in good time. As you sowed so must you reap. That is the law of recompense, of stern justice. Therefore, weep o i e r your wretched lot, and bitterly regret that false step in which you were tempted by pride, I do not dare remain here longer in your presence. At least thank heaven that 1 have decided to abandon the plan upon which I was working as unworthy of an honorable man. "You. are going, Jack?" "Yes." "Without seeing the children?'- pressing a butt6n while he was not looking. "They remind me too bitterly of what you, their unhappy mother, seemed to me in the long ago—all innocence and trusting love. No, I don't wish to see them now." "Oh, Jack, be reconciled—I shall pray daily that you cease to hate me, for the. sake of those little ones. Did you know the boy's name is Jack?" "What!" he gasped, weakening. "Do you mean to say your husband allowed you to do that—and I the man you loved? Incredible!" "I told him all, and it was he who first proposed i t You don't know his generous nature. I can see now what it was so disturbed him—you took his fire and freely gave him hig forfeited life. Oh! wretched woman that I am to have been loved by two such noble <"meri, and to have brought sorrow to both. Who will deliver me from the bondage of my sin?" «• As if in answer to her forlorn cry the patter of little feet sounded somewhere— the marquis, alarmed at his own weakness, turned to fly, but made a miscalculation, for in the hall he was waylaid by the enemy, w h o rushed upon him with exultant cries. He made a swoop for the little girl and swept her up in his arms, until her golden curls nestled against his shoulder when he kissed her pouting lips again and again. Then came the boy, to whom he had paid so little attention before. Now he held him off at arm's length, where he could look into his resolute face and bold black eyes—yes, he was surely the Image of what Livermore must have been as a lad, and yet, and yet, strange to say, the marquis actually believed he could see some traces of his own characteristics in the boy—learned philosophical and psychological scholars and doctors have long argued this point, and agreed that it is not only possible, but actual—the image of her first love still remained strong in Fedora's heart at the time the child was born. Kissing the youngster, the marquis hastily quitted the house, followed by the anxious gaze of the wretched Fedora, until the children, astonished at the strange actions of their friend, loudly bewailed his flight, and demanded her attention, • Weep no more tears of repentance and fear, wife and mother, since the seed has been sown and the harvest must come in due season—that name cf Jack, together with the captain's generosity, proved the last straw that broke the camel's back. CHAPTER XXI. "Love has redeemed mo!" The game was drawing near its close. With each struggle that iron will of the marquis, which had been the marvel and admiration of his friends, came out much weaker. Perhaps the thing that had the most decided influence upon him was the startling conviction that there had been awakened within his heart a glow of love for the little miniature painter. With the flower of love blossoming again in his heart he could hardly have continued in his former policy. Should he be magnanimous and freely forgive, or should he turn aside the bright vision that tempted him. shut himself up in a narrow compass and carry out the miserable plan of the past? Thus he debated, pro and con. But H chanced that the marquis was not given an opportunity to fight his battle to a finish in the usually accepted term —there was a surprise in store for him. a flank movement, as it were, on the part of one who meant to be an ally, yet proved his worst enemy. That person was the Spanish-American bellfe of San Jose. It was on the evening following that when the marquis received such a shock at the hands of Fedora. It was probably 11 ct'clock when one of the hotel lackeys came with a card on a silver salver and presented it to the marquis. This was a frequent occurrence, but on this special occasion ^those who were near by saw the usually cool nabob give a plain s t a r t v (To he continued.) . . . , *jiwu»«. x UBBOBJV by 4 majority *e» It), Waeftied Mr. Rhea fky.), u Democrat, and seated in hi* place J.

"It Ur entirely wrong. In 1385 there w a s brought from the mint in N e w Orleans to the treasury i n Washington f l l , - 000,000, and let was brought in a steamer. "The government decided to transport $15,000,000 from N e w Orleans. It was first thought best to bring it by rail, but this w a s assuming a great risk. The cabinet discussed the mat" ter carefully and i t was finally decided that the safest way would be by water. The members of the cabinet s a w that there was a chance for a hold-up if the money was brought by train. "The United States ship Swatara was first designated to carry the money, but it w a s found that she would be inadequate to transport the whole amount, s o the wooden sailing steamer Yantic w a s pressed into service to help out. We removed from the Swatara her magazines. The shells from the shellroom were removed, as were also the sails from the sailroom, BO that all available space was utilized for packing the coin. The only weapon of defense was a Gatling gun. "The money w a s conveyed from the mint to the vessels in wagons. A squad cf secret service officers watchsd the worK. T h e two vessels were In tow and the trip from New Orleans to the Washington navyyard occupied \ little more than four days. Considerable wind was encountered off Hatteras, but otherwise the trip was without incident. The money was carried from the navy yard to the treasury by an express company.. '"The money w a s in boxes of $2,000 each and in bags. My recollection is that the money was in silver dollars, or the greater part of it, for, while unloading at the navyyard, one of the bags, rctten from being in storage so long, gave way, and a large number of silver dollars v.'ere scattered about the wharf. 'The Swatara was a historic craft. John Surratt w a s brought back from Malta in the Swartara. The prince of Wales, now King Edward, paid her a visit once when she was with the American squadron at Villefranche in the Mediterranean. She was then the flagship. T h e prince, when he s a w her, askea: " 'Is this a yacht or a man of war?' "The Swatara is now in "rotten row* in the navyyard at San Francisco, waiting to be surveyed. The $11,000,- 000 carried by t h e Swatara from N e w Orleans to Washington was the greatest amount of money ever carried by a single cratt." Xiright'a I>l*easc Cured. Sullivan, 111.. March 3lst. Mrs. Kitty F. Seaney was very ill for months and notwithstanding the best possible medical attendance she got no better. Tbe doctors said she had Bright's Disease, and gave her little or no hope of ever being well again. She suffered great pain in her back. which nothing seemed able to relieve. till at last encouraged by the reputation Dbdd's Kidney Pills have attained in the community as a cure for Kidney Diseases, she began to use them. The result w a s a surprise both to Mr3. Seaney and the physicians, for soou after the treatment was commenced her kidneys threw off large quantities of dark diseased matter and she improved rapidly. She used in all ten boxes, and has completely recovered good 'health without pain or symptoms of the Brighfs DLs^as^.

My Informant, a Frenchman, shrugged his shoulders after the French fashion and walked out of the school without replying to my question. Brlsson at once doffed his wire mask and put up his foil. In doing so he turned his back upon his former antagonist and took care to keep It turned till Morrel had left the academy. Evidently the man who had shown his skill was not a favorite with him or, for the mutter of that, with any one present. The Frenchmen all departed, leaving the room to our party. Morrel also de* parted, and as he passed me 1 noticed the most repulsive face I had ever seen on a man. 1 did not wonder at the disfavor in which he was held. I should have been afraid to pass him In a lonely road had he cause to prick me In the back. Three years later, In company with my friend Walter Douglas, I again visited Europe, sailing from New York to Cherbourg and going from there to Mentone, a winter resort in the south' of France. One evening Douglas went to walk with a little French girl who had captivated lilm by her smart appearance, lie failed to return to the hotel, and toward morning, becoming anxious for his safety, I wont to search for him. 1 found him lying in his blood "in ~ine~"gardeTis~ slabbed through tlio heart.. His coat had been cut by the point of a knife or sword so as to make what looked like the letter S. The blade had entered the heart at the point where the tracing ceased. In agony at the murder of-my friend, I called a gendarme, and the body was removed. I made every effort to tiud the murderer, but without success. The mysterious letter S cut in bis coat would not be dropped from my mind. It soenied to partly awaken some memory. At last I remembered'Metre) and the figure >• he had chalked on the waistcoat of M. l.nsson. Then it occurred to me that the letter S was an incomplete l.gure S. Going at once to the police office, 1 requested them to arrest the little French girl whom Douglas had been with on the nijrht of his iinjrder^and. LOCAL N E W S . • Vacation this week.

After disarming his udver sary he took up a piece of chalk, rubbed it on the foil, and, calling to Brisflon to place himself on guard, made one brilliant utroUe after .another and at last left a chalk mark of -c ligure 8 on the fencing master's waistcoat directly over the heart.- "Vlctor Morrel!" exclaimed several who were present with the same breath.

Y.) • Washington, April $.—In the followi n g discourse, prepared by Dr. Talmage before his illness, a vivid glimpse of •the splendors and glories of heavenly life Is presented; text, Revelation viii., 1, "There was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour." The busiest place in the universe is heaven. I t is the center from which all sood influences start; it is the goal at.which all good results arrive. The Bible represents it as active with wheels and wings and orchestras and processions mounted or charioted. But my text describes a space when the wheeJs ceased to roll and the trumpets toteouud imd the voices to chant. The riders on the white horses reined in their chargers. The doxologies were hushed aud processions halted. The hand of arrest was upon all the splendor*. "Stop, heaven!" cried an omnipofent voice, and it stopped. For thirty minutes everything celestial stood still. "There was silence in heaven about the space oOiair an nour." From all we can learn It is the only time heaven ever stopped. It does not stop as other cities for the night, for there i s no night there. It does not stop for a plague, for the inhabitant never says, "I am sick." It does not stop for bankruptcies, for its inhabitants never fail. It does not stop for impassable streets, for there are no fallen snows or sweeping freshets. What, then, stopped it for thirty minutes? Grotlus and Professor Stuart think it was at the time of the destruction of Jerusalem. Mr. Lord thinks it WBB iu the year 311, between the close of t h e Diocletian persecution and the beginning of the wars by which Constantine gained the throne. 1 do not know when it was, and I do not care when It was. but of the fact that such an interregnum of sound took place 1 am certain. "There was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour," If .geologists are right—and I believe tffey are—there has not been a moment of silence since this world began its travels, and the crashing and the splitting and the uproar and the hubbub are ever in progress. But when among the supernale a voice cried, "Hush!" and for half an hour heaven was still, silence was honored. The full power of silence many of us have yet to learn. We are told that when Christ was arraigned "he answered not a word." That silence was louder than any thunder that ever shook tne world. ' Oftentimes when we are assailed and misrepresented the mightiest thing to •-^ay is to say nothing and the mightiest thing to do is to do nothing. Silence; Do right and leave the results witti God. Among the grandest lessons the world has ever learned are the lessons of patience taught by those who endured uncomplainingly personal or domestic or political injustice. Stronger than any bitter or sarcastic or revengeful answer is the patient silence. In. my text heaven spared thirty minutes, but it will never again spare one- minute. In worship in earthly (Churches where there are many to take part we have to counsel brevity, but how will heaven get on rapidly enough to let one hundred and fojrty-four thousand get through each with his own story and then one hundred and forty-four million and than one hnndred and forty-four billion and then one hundred and forty-four trillion? Not only are all the triumphs of the past to bo commemorated, but all the triumph-s to com*. Not only what we now know of God, but what we will know of him after everlasting study of the deiftc. If my text had said there was silence in heaven for thirty days. I would not have been startled at the announcement, but it indicates thirty minutes. Why, there will be so many friends to hunt up, so many of the greatly good and useful that we will want to see, so many of the inscrutable things: of earth we will need explained, so many exciting earthly experiences we will want to talk over, and all the other spirits and all the ages will want the same, that there will be no more opportunity for cessation. The multitudes of men and women who got no crowu on earth we will want to see them when they get their crown in heaven. I tei? yon "heaven will have no more half hours to spare. My subject also impress^ me with the immortality of a half hour. That half hour mentioned in my text is more widely knowfc than any other •period in the calendar of heaven. The only part of eternity that was ever measured by earthly timepiece waf3 measfjr*g>by t h e minute hand of my t e x t Oh, the half hours! They decide everything. . i am not asking what k y o u | | i ^ ( i » j f e * t f ^ < ^ : < » * # n t l ^ the story of your whole life In eternity. The right or wrong things you can think in thirty minutes, the right o f wrong things yon can say In thirty minutes, the right or wrong things you can do in thirty minutes are glorious or baleful, inspiring or desperate. Look out for the fragments of time. They are pieces of eternity. The half hour a day for good books or bad books, the half hour a day for prayer qr indolence, the half hour a day for helping others or blasting others, the half hour before you go t o business and the half hour after you return from business—that makes the difference between the scholar and the ignoramus, between the Christian and the infidel, between the saint and the demon, between iriumph and catastrophe, between heaven and hell. The most tremendous things of your life and mine were certain half hours. The half hour when in the parsonage of a country minister I resolved to become a Christian then and there, the half hour when I decided to become a preacher of the gospel, the half hour when I first realized that my son was dead, the half hour when I stood on the top of my house in Oxford street and saw our church bum, the half hour in which I entered Jerusalem, the half hour in which I hour in which ! stood on Mars hill and about ten or fifteen other half hours are the chief times of my life. You may forget the name of the exact years or most of the important events of your existence, but those half hours, like the half hour of my text will be immortal; I do not query what you will do with the twentieth century, I do not query what you will do with this year, but what will you do with the next half hour? Upon that hinges ycur destiny, and during that some of you will receive the gospel and make complete surrender, and during that others of you will make final and fatal rejection of the full and free and urgent and impassioned offer of life eternal. Oh, that the next half hour might be the most glorious thirty minutes of your earthly existence! Far back in history a great geographer stood with a sailor looking at a globe that represented our planet, and he pointed to a place on the globe where he thought there was an undiscovered continent. The undiscovered continent was America. The geographer who pointed where he thought there was a new world was Martin Behaim and the sailor to whom he showed it was Columbus. This la:.t was not satisfied until he had picked that gem out of the sea and set it in the crown of the world's geography. O ye who have been sailing up and down the rough seas of sorrow and oin, let me point o u t . t o you another continent—yea, another world—that you may yourself find, a rapturous world, and that is the world a half hour of which we now study! Oh, set sail for it! Here is the ship and here "are the compasses. In other words, make this half hour the grandest ba'f hour of your life aCntl become a Christian. Pray for a regenerated spirit. I say to yor. my hearers, only God by his convicting and converting grace can make a Christian, but he is ready this very Ualf hour to accomplish it. Again, ray text suggests a way of studying heaven so tnat we can better understand it. The word "eternity" that we can handle so much is an immeasurable world. Knowing that wc could not understand that word, the Bible uses it only once. . We say "forever and ever." But how long U "forever and ever?" I am glad that my text puts under our eye heaven for thirty minutes. As when you see a great picture, you put a sheet of paper into a scroll and lock through it or join your forefinger to ypur thumb and look through the circle between, and the picture becomes more intense, s;> this masterpiece of heaven by St. John is more impressive when we take only thirty minutes of it at a time. Now, we have something that we can come nearer to grasping, and it is a quiet heaven. When we discourse about the multitude of heaven, it must he also a nervous shock to those who have all their lives been crowded by many people and who want a quiet heaven. For the last thirty-five years I have been much of the time in crowds and under public scrutiny and amid excitements, and l have sometimes thought for a few weeks after 1 reach heaven I would like to go down in some quiet part of the realm, with a few friends, and for a little while try comparative solitude. You will find the Inhabitants all at home. Enter t h e King's palace and take only a glimpse, for wc have only thirty minutes for all heaven. "Is that Jesus?" "Yes." Just under the hair along his forehead is the mark of a wound made by a buna* of twisted brambles, and his foot on the throne has on the round of his instep another mark of a wound made by a spike, and a scar on the palm of the right hand and a, scar o u the palm of the lefi hand. But what a countenance 1 What a smile!' What a grandeur! What a loveliness! W h i t ' a V " o v e r w h e l m ^ ! look of kindneap and grace! W h y , h« looks as It he had redeemed a world*! But cotoe on, for our time is short,. 'Dg you see that row of patkcee? That i i the Apostolic row. . Do you s e e that long reach of architectural glories? That Is Martyr row.' Do you s e e that > Immense structure? That Is the biggest house In heaven; that Is "the house of many mansions." Do you see that wall? Shade your eyes against Its burning splendor, for that Is the wall of heaven, jasper at the bottom and amethyst at the top. See this river rolling through the heart of the great metropolis? That is the river concerning which those who once lived on the banks of the Hudson or the Alabama or t h e Rhine or the Shannon say, "We never saw the like of this for clarity and sheen." That is the chief river of heaven—so bright, s o wide, so deep. But you askt "Where are the asylums for the old?" I answer, "The inhabitants are all young." "Where are the hospitals for the lame?" "They are all agile." "Where are the infirmaries for the blind and. deaf?" "They all see and hear." "Where are the almi.^iouses for t h e poor?" "They are all multimillionaires." "Where are the inebriate asylums?" "Why, there are no saloons." "TIRED ALL THE l 11 l . « j n l - %Xt\-. »rv v * < r Wonnen 1tt the : * Spring Fever 4s Spring Catarrh. Peruna Cures Catarrh. Where are the graveyards?" "Why, stopped" on Mount Calvary, t h e half f they never die." Pass down those boulevards of gold and amber and sapphire and see those interminable streets built by the Architect of the universe into homes, over the threshold of which sorrow never steps and out of whose windows faces, once pale with earthly sickness, now look rubicund with immortal health. "Oh, let me go in and Bee them!" you say. No, you cannot go in. There are those who would never consent to let you come out again. You say, "Let me stay here in this place where they never sin, where they never suffer, where they never part." No, no! Our time is short, our thirty minutes are almost gone. Come on! We must get back to earth before this half hour of heavenly silence breaks up, for in your mortal state you cannot endure the pomp and splendor and resonance when this half hour of silence is ended. The day will come when you can see heaven in full blast, but not now. Come on! There is something in the celestial appearance which makes me think that the half hour of silence will soon be over. Remember we are mortal yet and cannot endure the full roll of heavenly harmonies and cannot endure even the silent benven for more than half an hour. Hark! The clock in the tower of heaven begins to strike, and the half hour is ended. Descend! Come back! Come down till your work is done. Shoulder a little longer your burdens. Fight a little longer your battles. Weep a little longer your griefs. And then take heaven not in its dullest half hour, but in its mightiest pomp, and, instead of taking it for thirty minutes, take it world without end. But how will you spend the first half hour of your heavenly citizenship after you have gone in to stay? After your prostration before the throne in worship of him who made it possible for you to get there at all I think the rest of your first half hour In heaven will be passed in receiving your reward if you have been faithful. I have a strangely beautiful book containing the pictures of the medals struck by the English government in honor of great battles. These medals are pinned over the heart of the returned heroes of the army on great occasions, the royal family present and the royal bands playing—the Crimean medal, the medal of the mutiny, the Victoria cross, the Waterloo medal. In your first half hour in heaven in some way you will be honored for the earthly struggles in which you won the day. Stand up before all the royal house of heaven and receive the Insignia while you are announced as victor over the drafts and freshets of the farm fl°Jd, victor ever the temptations of the Stock Exchange, victor oyer professional allurements, victor over domestic infelicities, victor over mechanic's shop, victor over the storehouse, victor over home worriments, victor over physical distresses, victor over hereditary depressions, victor over sin and death and hell. Take the badge that celebrates those victories through our Lord Jesus Christ. Take It In the presence of all the galleries, saintly, angelic and divine, while all heaven chants. "These are they who came out of great tribulation and had their robes washed and made white in the blood of the Lamb." "Thy sainti in all this glorious war Shall conquer though they die; They see the triumph from afar And Belie it with their eye." May 5,. 1001. The Peruna Medietas C«*,. Cohsmbns, Ohio.

I was very sick and sore, and had to walk with the aid of two canes. J i was a very painful attack, but I don't know what it was. Some said it was Lumbago and others that it was Sciatica or Rheumatism. "I was told to take Dodd's Kidney Pills, and began a treatment. After 1 had used one box 1 could walk with one cane, and after two boxes were used I could walk without any help. I kept on and three boxes cured me completely.

In the average Chinese restaurants in those cities good board can be had by the Chinese for from $15 to |20 a month, and these restaurants are largely patronized. As a rule the Chinamen are compelled to lodge in mean quarters; but In New York and San Francisco there are a number of weil appointed homes occupied by the families of well-to-do Chinese merchants, which the American seldom or never sees, in New York there la.an apartment house, up to date in every respect, occupied by Chinese families.

Parr, whose wit has lived a century after him, meeting Lord Erslcine, with whom he was friendly, said: "Erskine, I mean to write your epitaph when you die." "Doctor,' answered the great lawyer, "it is almost a temptation to commit 3uiclde." This recalls another story. Gibbon,.the. historian, had a rival in a French physician for tne favor of e titled lady, and the doctor was one day annoyed by Gibbon's monopolizing the lady's company. "When my Lady Elizabeth Foster 13 made ill by your twaddle," said the doctor in a loud tone, "1 will cure her." "And when my Lady Elizabeth Foster is dead from your prescriptions," said the historian, "I will immortalize her." S p e a t # 8 3 , 0 0 0 t o "Get E » e n . M The extremes to which some peopla will go for revenge have seldom been better demonstrated than in the case of two rival shipowners in the norih of England some years ago. The manager of a local colliery invited tenders for the conveyance of large quantities of coal to America, and when the contract was given to one shipowner the other immediately set to work t o wreak vengeance. He first approached the owners of the colliery and offered to carry the coal across the Atlantic for a shilling a ton less than cost price, and as this effected considerable saving to the colliery, the proprietors countermanded the former contract and closed with the second oiler. The shipowner was content to suffer a loss for five year a in order t o spite his rival, and at the end of that time he capitulated, for his revenge had cost him $85,000. reports of the wedding. All other con slderatlons were eclipsed by the other fact that her sister had married a titled foreigner, and not a very big title at that In every published account the bride was described not as "daughter of Mr. and Mrs, ," but as the "sister of the Countess ." The fact that the marriage of this same countess' sister turned out most unhappily, and that, finding it impossible to live with her husband, she was some years ago obliged to get a legal separation, counts for nothing.

Both were released on bail of $1,000 each. The charges grow out of the death of the woman, who came here sick on March 19, and w a s attended by Dr. (Jriswold. The woman gradually grew •worse and died Tuesday morning, the body beiug at once removed from the hotel and shipped to Battle Creek for burial. Dr. Griswold says the woman came to his office suffering from the effects of a criminal operation, which she said had been performed in Detroit. She said she had had the same operation pj^'iirmini^siixeiLJLhnes, and admitted that she had led a fast life for ten years, but said that her family was res e c t a b l e , and she wished to protect them. Tl»e doctor did what he could for her. but did not perform the operation. Three years ago he had attended the woman at Harper hospital in Detroit. The girl is.very well known about Battle Creek, where she is best remembered through her daring horsemanship. She always drove superb animals and sported a natty rig. She left here only a short time ago, going to Detroit. Her parents are also well known, living a few miles south of (his city. She was 25 years old and very attractivJv. She has t w o sisters.

One of the most shocking tragedies ever recorded in Mecosta county tooK place Wednesday morning near Borland settlement, a lhig station on the G. R, & I., a few miles north of Morley. Eugene Richards, a well-to-dofarmer, shot and instantly killed his wife, as she lay ill in bed. and then killed himself. He is thought to have been temporarily insane. Mrs. Richards had been sick for some time, and the necessary care for her and anxiety concerning her,condition, probably unbalanced his mind. The tragedy was discovered by Edward Andrews, who was employed by Richardson, on the adjoining farm. A girl employed to care for the sick woman, while on her way to Richards' home, heard two gunshots, and returned to whore Andrews w a s at work, saying that she w a s afraid to go to the house. Andrews went to investigate, and on entering the bedroom found Mrs. Richards lying in bed with an ugly hole in her breast and Richards himself kneeling at the bedside. A touch showed that he w a s dead, also shot in the breast. The deed w a s committed with a single- barreled shotgun, and the murderer was forced to reload before he could kill himself.

"In one cjfthe smAtl prtvmte paflora, sir. Z will show you the way, if you please." *•..•«., The marquis glanced. again a t the card which he held, and read1: '• "Maurice Stantbn Livermore: "Give'me' a private interview immediately.", , ; , "Lead, me to the gentlemen," he said, quietly, though there was a tumult in his h e a r t As ho reached the door of the bijou parlor he saw a man pacing restlessly to and fro, much as caged tigers arq wont to exercise. It waa Captain Livermore. but hia friends would have been shocked a t his appearance,for his hair was sadly lacking in order, his face flushed, as though he dallied long over the wine, and his whole aspect like that of a man who has been on a spree. The marquis was disturbed; h e anticipated bad news, but had not a glimmer of what shape it would take until the captain, seeing him enter, advanced to meet him. "Captain Livermore, what can I do for you?" the marquis asked, coldly. "Sir, I have come for my wife!" The marquis.started a s if some on<« had fired a pistol shot close to his ear. Even the most collected individual might be a trifle rattled by such an answer. Still this did not prevent him, while he was whipping his wits into line, from;excaliming: "Pardon me, sir, but I fail to exactly comprehend the meaning of what you say." "Then I will explain further. My first intention was to shoot you down on sight, but I could not forget that once you refused to avail yourself of the privilege of taking my forfeited life, and I swore that the man who had been that generous should have at least a chance to defend himself before I killed him." "Still I am i n the dark. The first thing I grasp is that she has told you who I am." "I was a blind fool never t o have suspected it. You ruined me, .marquis, but surely that should have satisfied your desire for revenge. All that I had might go and welcome, so long a s I still call my wife and babies mine. Again I say, I have come to you to demand my wife." "And I reply, sir, that I have not seen your wife since last evening, when 1 left her in your own house, together with her children." Eye looked into eye. It was as though the captain's whole existence depended upon what ho road there, his manner that of a distracted man holding his passions in check only through the most desperate effort. "Jack Overton, do you swear to that?" he demanded, hoarsely. "I do, on my life." Again the captain met his gaze and seemed to read his very soul through those open windows. After all, these were two men built pretty much upon the same m o d e l - both brave and frank by nature—such individuals can understand each other through the mysterious realm of telepathy. "I cannot believe that the man whose generous spirit caused hira to fire above my head on the other occasion would look mo squarely in the eye and speak falsely. Yes, even against my will, 1 am compelled t o believe you, and I prove it by offering you my hand, marquis; but if you are not guilty, then, in the name of heaven, who has taken my wife away?" I left home after dinner to meet a very important engagement that had a connection with my f u t u r e - left there with the kisses of wife and children warm upon my face, for Fedora had told me all, and her distress concerning your possible future action had drawn us closer together. I returned later in the evening, just as speedily as a cab could bring me from the Victoria, to find her gone and my little darlings motherless. This note was left behind." He handed the other a crumpled Bheet of paper, upon which had been written in a peculiar chlrography, a long, running hand, such as is taught in Spanish schools: "To balance accounts. "Guerre a m o r t " When he looked up his face was ashen gray. Those eager, bloodshot eyes saw that the miserable and tragic little paper, worthy of a place on the comedy stage, had struck home. "You have guessed!" he exclaimed. "I believe I know: who wrote this, "and, therefore, w h o l e at the bottom of the outrage. I n o n e way I am to blame. LiaUn, a n d in the shortest possible time I will tell you about the Senorita Juanite and, the strange infatuation s h e h a e for ine." Rapidly he sketched th* romantio story of his life under tropic skies. The captain might have imagined it was a leaf from such amazing tales as t h e Arabian Nights, only that his own deep interest in,the matter forbade. By degrees he began to realize what) a desperate woman they had to cope with, and new fears for his wife's safety assailed him. It was hardly to be wondered a t that the husband, who had faced many a deadly peril himsell unflinchingly, trembled and turned to his companion for strength in this moment of terrible d i s t i l s , when the woman he loved better than his lifo was in danger. Nor did he look in vain. The marquis had shaken off all thedoubts and fears that assailed him, and, aroused to a realization of t h e desperate situation that faced them, was again the peerless comrade whe had stood by Barrajo when they fought for the Golden Fleece. "Captain," he said, sternly, "depend on me to remedy this thing. If it took my life, I would freely give it to bring your wife back to your arms, for love has redeemed me." It was a* splendid thing for the captain, who found himself s o overwhelmed by the distressing condition of affairs, that he had a comrade wide awake to the importance of speedy action. Deep down in his heart the marquis cursed his folly for ever having been friendly in the least with one possessed of such a tigerish, tropical temperament, and groaned to think of evil befalling Fedora through such a source. Shorn of all outside consid2ration then, the captain's story was of t h e hackneyed type — unsuspicious people may. be deceived by the most ancient of specious tales, so that there is little need of originality, even in these modern days, in the matter of decoying a woman from under her own roof. The paper which Livermore had picked up in the hall explained much, for strange to say, it contained writing that in some respects resembled his own—at least under the supposed conditions he might have been the authoi of the message: "Was injured in a collision with another cab. Send this good Samaritan sister to bring you to me. Come immediately. God alone knows how serious it may be. Maurice." When the marquis read it he muttered under his breath. Perhaps the "good Samaritan sister" was Juanita herself in deep disguise, and with the most sinister of motives in her heart. "Come, we must go to your house without delay. The start must be made from there. On the way we can collect ourselves and make some preparation for the work." This was his way of'starting in, and as they left the hotel the marquis beckoned to a gentlemanly looking youn» fellow who, while appearing to be somewhat of a swell, was in reality a detective serving as his bodyguard. A four-wheeler was next in order, and thus they reached the captain's house. The marquis asked a few questions and then allowed the man from Scotland Yard to take charge of the case. He drove at once to the railway station and made inquiries a t the booking office. luckily the captain bad a photograph of his wife along with him. snatched from the mantel at home by suggestion of his one-time deadly enemy, but now devoted friend. The clerk recollected the party well. It consisted of two ladles, who appeared sick or suffering in some way. a couple of attendants, honest-looking fellows, and the woman who seemed to have charge of them all—he had supposed her to be a housekeeper or companion. Thus they knew those they sought had gone on to Dover. It was a great triumph for the detective, and their faith in him arose accordingly. Still the situation was lugubrious enough, since there was no train until morning. That meant o four or five hours wasted. The captain grew red in the face with congested anger and threatened to have an apoplectic fit, but the marquis, upon learning that only a question of pounds, shillings and pence kept them from reaching Dover, put his hand into his pocket and made immediate a r - rangements for a motor and one firstclass carriage. I n ten minute* they were leaving the station, and-Jong ere the city limits had' been reached found . themselves whirling along at a furious speed. It was agreed by all that Fcdorj While In the cab .must have beon4rugged in some way, to prevent her calling for help*-doiiMMMf fceiv <enieln captor bad made ail preparations for this 'and had no difficulty in *tup«fying her Htffld, while she stiUreUhred the' use of her limbs. .

Two! A .strange, cold shiver went through the marquis, as a dreadful thought flashed home.. He remembered how he had met Jur anita on the stairs; how she had questioned him about the demure miniature painter; how she had bitterly exclaimed that the little girl of his former acquaintance had now grown up into a charming little woman. Good heavens! Could it be possible that her terrible Spanish hatred had extended to Mazette, and that, having laid all her plans to accomplish a certain purpose, she set out to kill two birds with one .stone? And while he sat there grinding hie teeth and swearing that if heaven would forgive him and spare her he would devote his fortune to make people happy, the special gaye several sharp whistles and plunged into Dover.

If the Cubau sugar pays lens duty it will practically put the sugar from Sau.o Domingo out of business. The plantations of this country are in the hands of about 50 owners, many of them Americans.

Again the man from Scotland Yard was put in charge, and bent his energies to discovering what had become of those they sought. ' The trail finally led them to the water, and then they knew the crisis was, near. In all his life Jack Overton never suffered such wretched pangs of remorse and despair as came upon him while they looked out upon the dark waters where the stars were reflected upon myriads of little wavelets, and considered what a trackless waste the sea might be. The detective at last secured positive news. Those they sought had gone to sea in a small steamer that had evidently been awaiting their arrival. There was only one thing to d o - follow. Given a feverish anxiety to be afloat, and unlimited capital, in a seaport one need not search very long for the craft. The detective soon had them aboard a little craft that was used in the coasting trade, a stanch and speedy boat, such as would answer' their purpose admirably. Out of the harbor and away. About daybreak of the second day the wind blew- great guns, and they found themselves in a storm. The storm was at its height about noon, and a3 they had been blown far out of their course, no one might say when the port of Santander would be reached, although the captain made some sort of a prophecy the under certain conditions they would bring up there by the second night. At sundown the storm still raged and the gallant little steamer struggled desperately to hold her own. During tho night, between the cat naps he secured, the marquis was inipixssed with the belief that the vessel did not pitch and toss so violently and upon making an observation found that the clouds had parted, leaving a clear sky overhead. Upon reaching deck he found everything lovely. The sea had subsided almost entirely and a fresh morning breeze was commencing to stir its surface into myriads of laughing wavelet3. About noon the captain called their attention by means of the glass to far distant land to the south, which he declared to be the northern coast of Spain, showing that they were now traversing the romantic Bay of Biscay, known to. the natives as the Gulf of Gascogne. Thus there was now a fair chanc?. the captain promised, that before midnight they would be at anchor in the harbor of Santander. How like lead dragged the hours as they steamed directly toward the beacon! But all things must end, and finally they entered the harbor, where other vessels lay at anchor, and the captain soon had their mudhook fastened in Spanish soil. It was perhaps ten minutes later When the marquis appeared at Livermore's elbow as the latter stood at the rail surveying the lights of the to\ra, and said in a hoarse whisper: "Make no outcry, my friend; control yourself and listen. Our captain is ready to take hia oath mat the steamer dimly seen on our quarter yonder is the boat that left Dover, and which we have chased over the sea!"

Patrick, lawyer, wan convicted of the murder on September 23, 19()0, of the 'aged millionaire recluse, William Marsh Bice. The penalty under the statute is death in the electric chair.

There was but small attendance as it seems that the citizens have a grudge against the school library fund or something of the kind. It is discouraging for the Professor and scholars to work up a good entertainment for the benefit of the people and then have barely enough people attend to pay costs. The price of admission was only 15 cents with reserye tickets at 10 cents and get only one business man who purchased reserved seats. Is this ri^ht to our home talent and home school. Had it been a 15 cent medicine show, rain, weather or any old thing would not have kept the people away. The young people worked hard on the play for. two weeks, and all rendered their parts in excellent shape, and were deserving of mnch better patronage at the hands of the home people. Those who were present appreciated and enjoyed the entertainment and many were heard to remark that it was a shame that more did not take an interest in the work of tbe school. After paying expenses the library fund will be increased by about $4.00, (after some of tbe expenses were donated by two different firms,) for their two weeks work. Aotlce.

In view of the fact that the ancient donatole to cite another action of a similar character wherein the judge case of the people against Murline has been drawn out of some ancient pigeonhole and dusted off and paraded before a smiling public, it may be parpermitted mercy to temper the rigors of justice. It will be remembered that i n the case against Murline the defendant had been caught kissing Sarah TAittie, contrary to the statutes of tho $($w Haven colony, and that after a fiir trial o n Hay day, 1660, the governor? had eeatenced both of them to pay a fine©* twenty shillings.

And strange to say tho I had much to tell her I could not frame the words, but was content to walk in quiet by her syde, with the folds of her frock sometymes touching me and ».soe sending lyttle thrills thro my blud. And when we reached her father's <lommycile we lingered o'er the paylings. Then Dorothy leaned a lyttle toward me and sayd in her gentil voice. 'Good night to you, Philip.' And of a suddyn my hart swelled and I was near to chokying, and ere I knew what I had done I leaned across ye pasgjngs and kyssed her! '^pril ye four—I have been summoned before ye governor's counsyl to answer to ye charge of unlawfully kysslng Misstress Dorothy Graham. It appears that Abijah Clamphill saw me from betoynd ye hedge.

If Philip stole ye goods I, stood idly by and saw ye laroenly ac- j compliant Punish mee. too.' Aiul then of a suddyn a quick smile crodt the governor's face, but hys voice was, harsh, when he sayd: 'Yo have been found gilty of a heinous offence agaynst the goode character of ye colony, Philip Ames. It is deserving of severest punyshment, but becaws of youre youthe, and more especially becaws of ye verry grate temptayshun,' here he caste a swifte glance at blushyng Dorothy. *I hereby decree that the sentynce concerning you be that >*ou fihaH pay a fyne of 1 shillyng into ye colony treasure?—and I put ye, Philip Ames, on probaytion until said ehyi.yng be paid.'

It is a simple matter to reach the lands apoken oft the Canadian Government having agencies established at S t Paul and Duluth, Minnesota; Grafton, North Dakota; Watertown. South Dakota; Omaha, Nebraska; Kansas City, Missouri; Des Moines, Iowa; Wausau and Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Chicago, Illinois; Indianapolis, Indiana; Sault Ste.

This U a great opportunity to secure a home free of cost or if you desire to purchase lands they can be bought now at prices much lower than will exist in a few months. But read what the correspondent referred to has to say of one particular district. "To the Editor of the Leader—The rush of the land seekers will be to the prairie provinces of the Dominion of Canada. The allurements of a soil that yields 40 bushels of wheat to the acre are too great to be resisted and an immense migration from this country may be eonf dently predicted. People here laughed at first at the idea of any one leaving the United States for Canada, but the Dominion authorities knew they had a good thing and they stuck to it. Their officials evidently knew the value of printers' ink. They spared no expense in letting the people of this country know that these lands were there and that they were exactly as represented. They did more. They sent out specimens of the crops raised and samples of the grain. We have had them here at four consecutive street fairs, presided over by one of their ablest immigration officers. This gentleman spared no pains. He explained the value of the lands an J the richness of the soil from morning to night to all comers. "All this told in the long run. Several went up from here to spy out the land and l!ke Caleb, the son of Jepunneh, and Joshua, the son of Nun. brought back a good report, and now some tec families will leave here in a few weeks for Saskatoon to settle upon farni3 there., and others are preparing to follow. Of course many will appear shocked at M:e Id** of any cne leaving the stars anc stripes for the Union Jack, but patriotism is but a nomenclature after all, and our experience has been that in nine hundred and ninety-nine cases out of a thousand a man is the most patriotic where he can make the most money and do the most harm to those *hom he hates." wmimm** ' V SOME PECULIARITIES GF WRITER* Oaa»e* Do 6o«4 Werk VeJeeeTfcelr VadS Ave titaaaored.

KIMBERLEY IN THE SAMOAN STORM Heroism of the I*ate Rear-Admiral and His Man. "Rear Admiral Kimberley, who died at his New England home recently," said a native officer the other day, "will always be remembered by his brother officers for his action during the hurricane in Samoa several years ago, when several American, British and German ships were wrecked. A notable incident of that disaster Is a verification of the Baying that 'blood is thicker than water.' The skill and heroism displayed by the American officers and men under command of Admiral Kimberley on that occasion thrilled the whole country. "As the British cruiser Calliope, which had more engine power than the other ships present, steamed out of the harbor to safety in the open sea Admiral Kimberley assembled the band on deck of the flagship Trenton and had it play "God Save the Queen" .and "the Star Spangled Banner." The Trenton was grinding to pieces on the reef at the time, but the skill and seamanship displayed by the British tars in getting their ships out of a tight place aroused the admiration of the admiral and his men to such an extent that they lined up on deck and cheered the Englishmen as they sailed past them to. safety. "It'was at that time," continued the officer, according to the Washington Star, "that the band incident occurred. The British men-of-warsmen appreciated the compliment and roared back chers of encouragement until they were out of hearing. The Trenton and the Vandalia, another American warship were destroyed, and the Nipsic was cast ashore and badly damaged/' G«neron* Lord and S o n M t Farmer.

An anecdote significant of the ways of the house Is told of the late earl's father. A farmer came to him to represent that his wheat had been damaged seriously by the hounds. The earl inquired at what he appraised the damage. The man said £50, and it was at onca paid. After harvest the farmer came again and said that the wheat far from being injured where most trampled on, seemed the strongest when they came to cut it, and consequently he had brought back the £50. "Ah," said Lord P., "this i3 "as things should be 'twixt man and man.' Then he wrote out a check for £100, saying, "Take care of this, and when your eldest son is of age present it to him, and tell him of the occasion which produced it"—London Chronicle.

HlfXStLfli® f a)rs Health will come with all its blessings to those who know the way, and it is mainly a question of ri?nt-living, with all the term implies, but the efforts which strengthen the system, the games which refresh and the foods which nourish are important, eaclj in a way, while it Is also advantageous to have knowledge of the best methods of promoting freedom from unsanitary conditions. To assist nature, when uaturo needs assistance, it is all important that the medicinal agents used should be of the best quality and of known value, and the one remedy which acts most beneficially and pleasantly, as a laxative, is—Syrup of Figs—manufactured by the California Fig Syrup )Co. With a proper understanding of the fact that many physical ills are of a transient character and yield promptly to the gentle action of Syrup of Figs, gladness and comfort come to the heart, and if one would remove the tcrpor and strain and congestion attendant upon a constipated condition of the system, take Syrup of Figs and enjoy freedom from the aches and pains, the colds and headaches and the depression due to inactivity of the bowels. In case of any organic trouble it is well to consult a competent physician, but when a laxative is required remember that the most permanently gratifying results will follow personal cooperation with the beneficial effects of Syrup of Figs. It is for. salejby all reliable druggists. Price fifty cents per bottle. The excellence of Syrup of Figs comes from the beueflcial effects of the plants used in the combination and also from tiio method of manufacture which ensures that perfect purity and uniformity of product essential in a perfect family laxative. All the members of the family from the youngest to tho most advanced in years may use it whenever a laxative is needed and share alike in its beneficial effects. We do not claim that Syrup of Figs is the only remedy of known value, but it possesses this great advantage over all other laxatives that it acts gently and pleasantly without disturbing natural functions, in any way, as it is free from every objectionable quality or substance. To get its beneficial effects it is always necessary to buy the genuine and the full name of the Co.—California Fig Syrup Co.—is printed on the front of every package. ffiswjRrciA San Francisco, Cel.

"Let TO have a council of war," the .mjir^uJa^flaM.. jritkjjnexgy, J^and take the opinions of our detective and the captain as to the advisability of making an immediate advance on the enemy's works." A plan of action was decided upon. Steam should be kept up by the com mander, so that an immediate departure from the harbor could be made in case ft. was deemed necessary. The three others entered a boat, which was manmed by several of the stoutest and most expert sailors on board—men whose muscles were capable of enormous work should there be need of haste. If an indifferent watch were kept aboard the craft there would be little o r n o difficulty to accomplishing the first part of their scheme, at least. This was to temporarily disable the screw of the steamer, so that such a thing as pursuit would be out of the question. Nearer they drew, and those who were so deeply interested held their very breath, for fear lest a sudden hail from on board might bring aoout discovery and possibly ruin for their plans. v CHAPTER XXTII. The Search for a Wife. "It was already arranged that in cas>e such a contretemps occurred they were to advance to the side of the steamer, addressing the man on guard in Spanish, which the marquis was easily capable of doing, announcing them3elvea officers of the port, bent upon their duties, who wished to come aboard. Onoe alongside, they would speedily clamber over the low waist of the little steamer, whether.invited or n o t As to the rest, they were armed, and meant to carry out their object though the heavens fell. The sailors were to manage the task of using the chain which they had carried, so that it would be wouud about the propeller with the first few revolutions made. It was well done. Not a single clanking sound betrayed them. Their next task required an abundance of nerve, which, fortunately, was not lacking. The marquis had been using his- eyes as well as the darkness allowed, and he saw that the steamer was built in a manner that made the task of boarding her more difficult than he had anticipated. They might be compelled to rely upon some chance rope dangling over the side. The sailors knew what to expect, and foot by foot the boat was worked along close to the hull of the steamer until the groping hand of the mau who searched came in contact with what they sought, a rope, by means of which any sailor ashora co Id. up in arrival at the vessel, clamber aboard. The marqn's was the first to take hold of it after the sailor had fastened one end to a thwart, and he passerl over the rail of tto steamer in a jiffy. Then came the man from Scotland Yard, who also made the passage easi l y enough. — With Livermore it was a serious business, for he had accumulated much avoirdupois since his last equatorial tramp through the African wilderness. However, the same game spirit as of yore resided in his body, and while he puffed considerably, making sounds that Jack feared would draw attention from the watch, the discovery did not come, and he was given the privilege of assisting his friend aboard. Fortune favored them in that they were able to reach the cabin without meeting any one. XtaceatJthe-saloon door, they looked its length without discovering a living . soul. Evdcntly those whom they sought must be in their staterooms opening off the cabin, and there waa nothing left to them out to open uisue, one ar a time, to discover the truth. This was the crucial time. The marquis, bold enough to take advantage of the slender opportunity fortune had granted them, stepped to the first door and opened it. The light from the cabin entering disclosed Fedora seated on a chair, having refused to retire to the berth after the terror of the last two nights. He advanced to her side and said in a low but earnest tone: "Do not cry out, or all is lost! We have come across the water to save you. He is close at hand—your husband. Come to him now, and please utter no sound above a whisper." Then she suffered him to lead her out, not sure that it was a dream or some delusion."- There stood the captain awaiting his own, and with a cry she could not repress ehe threw herself into his extended arms. The marquis rightly feared that discovery was now sure to come, and realizing that not a second must be lost he begged Fedora to tell him if she had a companion in her captivity. Unable to speak, she pointed to a door opposite to the stateroom she had occupied, and as Jack turned to it he saw Mazette standing there, with pale face and disheveled hair—but Mazette, alive, thank Heaven! Another instant and he had clasped her to his heart—it was one of those moments when- words are useless to convey the sentiments of the soul, for Mazette knew he loved her, even as she had for years adored her former comrade and instructor in Bohemia. Just as the marquis, overwhelmed by his sentiments, threw the mask aside and betrayed his love for Mazette by straining the miniature painter to his heart another door flew open and there issued forth a figure that in Its warlike demeanor might have stood for a modern Joan of Arc —a figure that, at sight of the marquis and Livermore, uttered *avage little cries in Spanish, arid with blazing eyes and heaving bosom rushed toward the former, waving desperately in her hand a revolver, which he knew full well she had learned how to use under the palms of Gautarica, since he himself, as wretched luck would have it, had taught her the first principles of marksmanship. tile. T U a wa* a beglaaingvi., AM the others joined the captain on deck they, found themaelve* confront* eel by a rabble of wild-eyed barefooted Spanish sailors. The marquis addressed them in quick sentences, straight t o tno point; hi* Spanish was good, and he knew how to best handle such men—mighty little time did he spend in explaining by what right they came there, for such rovers care not a snap for the affection existing between husband and wife—with them right is but as might allows, and their god the brazen image that will buy liquor and tobacco. Thus the marquis had a card up his sleeve, and he played it now at a tinxa when it was of the greatest value. When he drew out his hand from ""ttfclwSSet It contained a seore-ef g©W pieces. These he sent along the deck with a toss that is only gained through experience. It was a clever trick. In vain some fellow in command shouted and *wore at the sailor men to mass themselves in front of the invaders and prevent them from leaving the, vessel; he addressed, but empty air, for the spot that had just held the Spanish crew knew them no longer. The gleam of golden coins rolling about the deck was enough to make them even forget their allegiance to the young King, and, heedless alike of entreaties and hard imprecautions, they set about "scrambling for—the coins*. * ment felt at seeing the marquis almost caused her to faint. CHAPTER XXIV. Where Gold Proved Trumps. Luckily the detective was prepared for just such a move as this, and as she came within reach, not noticing his presence, he caught her and with a quick movemenc wrested the revolver from her grasp. The movement was successful, but it cost him dear, for the frenzied woman, baffled in her design, scratched his face after the manner of a tiger cat, all the while screaming as might an escaped maniac—doubtless, for the time being, she was out of her senses, so fearful a hold upon her mind had this idea of Corsican revenge taken, that the prospect of losing her prey rendered her mad. He threw her from him with a curse, for she would very likely have dug his eyes out. It was now high time they departed. Already the alarm was given and they could hear the shouts of Spanish sailors as they ran to and fro, or came tumbling up from their quarters forward. Already the captain was leading his w h o ' t o the deck; the . old warrior's fighting blood wa.3 up, and woe to the man who dared bar his path. The marquis followed with Mazette. As for the detective, finding a key }-o the cabin door he whipped this lat ter shut and, having secured it, placed the key In hU pocket, hoping that by thus separatii.g Juanita from the unscrupulous captain and crew he jnighLitssenth.e.-daiisejk— . It was a politic move and did hiru credit. They cpu'd hear her pounding at the door while her shrieks arose; then came several shots from her recovered revolver, whether as signals or fired in the hope of demolishing the lock that heUi hei prisoner none could say. No sooner had Livermore issued forth upon the deck than he was set upon by a couple of men, one of them possibly the captain of the steamer, who recognized in him a stranger. At least here was an opportunity for Livermore to prove that he had noi become rusty in his five years' retirement from the field of adventure and travel, and right royally he emphasized this point under the eyes of his wife. —11« threw out hie right hand—aadlibrary £ ) & $ « iliWl l t f p e M f t * s ^ ulatlon for the maintenance.

Just now their one desire w a s to shake off the society of these sad seadogs, and leave them to fight it out among themselves. Accordingly, a forward movement was begun without delay, and they managed to reach the side of the vessel where hung the rope that had been of such signal assistance in helping them aboard, about the time the sailors again gathered in a threatening crowd. The marquis lowered Mazette into the arm* of the stout lads waiting below. Then came Fedora, assisted on both sides, and such trust did the ladies feel in those brave hearts that had risked all these dangers in their behalf that they forgot to exercise the first privilege of the feminine mind and scream as they were lowered over tfc-e rail into the darkness below. As the-Spaniards, urged on by their valorous officers, who took good care to keep in the rear, showed signs of making a rush, t h e nabob again with eager fingers chased all the fugitive coins he had in his pockets, and, having corraled them, open^i another fusilade. And again it was a grand success— nothing could withstand the power of gold. Taking advantage of this digression, while the men chased the rolling discs, the captain was assisted down the rope and the marquis followed. As the man from Scotland Yard started to follow, one of the steamer's officers made a slash at the rope with his cuchillo and severed i t Luckily the detective was kept from going overboard, and the fragment of rope, found later on, was seized by Overton as a memento of this remarkable adventure.

At t h e first meeting of t h e n e w leg- | islature a motion w a s introduced and | speedily carried, b u t on t h e second 1 m e a s u r e a dispute arose, a n d for three days t h e state legislators wrangled and debated. j Finally, on t h e third day, Nesmith, j wh* h a d watched t h e proceedings | without even opening his mouth, decided it w a s time to use a piece of his parliamentary procedure, so he rose and moved the "previous question." There w a s a moment of silence following this motion, a n d then amid a shout of derision t h e speaker cried: "Sit down, you fool! We passed t h e previous question three days a g o !

Mr. McDonnell's perseverance is a fitting example for any young man to follow. When a boy, and as he grew to manhood, his desire was to be a physician. His aged parents needed his help and care however and he stifled his ambition for the time. His parents pass?d a"way about four years| and 25. ago leaving him with but little property and considerably past the young man period. His ambition was not dead however, and after disposing of his property he announced bis intention of carrying, out the desire of his life and entered the Michigan Medical College where by hard study inside and work outside he has come off with honor> which he richly deserves.

We caution you to advise the wool growers in your section before they shear, and wheu buying to refuse to take wool so tied except at the price of cotts and seedy.

Borne^would be mystified, if told, furthermx>r^ thai t h i s > the date ef the Declaration of Independence of one part of the American nation. Such, however, are the facts. The state is Texas. What the Fourth of July is in the history of the thirteen original colonies, the second of March is in the history of Texas.. The opening of the year 1836 found Texas in quite an anomalous condition. She was engaged in active fighting against Mexico, and yet seemed to have no other idea than that of remaining a portion of Mexico. In November of the preceding year a gathering known as the general consultation had been held at San Felipe. The name consultation was_ applied to this because the Mexicans were prejudiced against "conventions." This one fact shows how anxious the Texans were _ to retain the favor of Mexico. Provision was made for another council, to meet the 1st of March of the next year. On Feb. 1 an election was held, and fifty-eight were chosen as delegates to that gathering. These assembled March 1 in the picturesque old tpwn of Washington, on the Brazos. The next day they unanimously adopted- a declaration of independence. It i*as written by George €. Childress, and is considered a strong document The' opening lines are as follows: "When a Government has ceased to protect the lives, liberty and property of the people, from whom its legitimate powers are derived " It then proceeds to state concisely and vigorously sixteen separate points in which the government of Mexico had failed in its duty to Texas. It then states that "these and other grievances were patiently borne until they reached the point at which forbearance ceased to be a virtue." It declares that the Texans then took up arms in defense of the "national Constitution" —that is, the Constitution of Mexico— but that now "the necessity of selfpreservation decrees an eternal political separation." It closes by committing the issue to the decision of the "Supreme Arbiter of the destinies of nations." The first name signed is that of Richard Ellis, the president of the gathering. Then follow the names of flfty-ene others who were present. Sam Houston was one of these. Last come the names of six others who were elected delegates, but were not present, and signed later. Nearly all of the fifty-eight names are now perpetuated as the names of counties on the map of Texas. After all, however, one can not help feeling tbat this declaration of indeoenrtence was largely a matter of form. Practically speaking the connection with the mother country had already been severed. There had been some months of actual fighting. The battles of Ooncepoion, Goliad and Gonzales had already been fought. San Antonio had already been captured by the Texans and recaptured by the Mexicans. At the very time the convention was in session Travis, Bowie, Crockett and their brave followers were making their last heroic stand at the Alamo. On Sunday, March 6, the last letter written by Travis waa received. When the president read the message one member sprang to his feet and moved that the members of the convention arm themselves and march immediately to the Alamo to relieve Travis. , Sam Houston opposed this. He claimed that the first duty of the convention was to establish a government and a constitution. He offered to collect troops himself and march to the relief. This he did, but all toofcate. On the night of the very day when they were discussing It—Sunday, March 6, 1836— the final attack was made. All the world knows the result The Alamo fell, hut its glorious fall made forever Impossible the failure of Texan independence, BO peacefully declared in the qniet town of Washington only a few days before.

FLEHAKTY, recent i V l Superintendent of the W. C. T. U. headquarters, a t Galesburg, I1L, was for ten years one of the leading women there.' Her husband, when living, was nrst President of the Nebraska Wesleyan University, at Lincoln, Neb. In a letter written from 401 Sixty-seventh street, W., Chicago, 111., Mrs. Fieharty says the following in regard to Peruna*. "Having lived a very active life as wife and working partner of a busy minister, my health failed me a few years ago. I lout m y husband about the same time, and gradually I seemed to lose beoltn and spirit. My daughter is a confirmed invalid, and we both felt great need Of an invigorator. t(One of my neighbors advised me to try Peruna. A bottle was immediate' iy secured and a great change took place in my daughter's as well as in my own health. Our appetites Improved very greatly, the digestion seemed much helped, and restful sleep toon improved us, so that we seemed like new women. "I would not be without Peruna for ten times its cosf-^Mrs. Anna B. Fieharty. ^^_ What used~to he called female diseases by the medical proiossion i s now called pelvic catarrh. I t has been found b y experience that catarrhal diseases of the peivie organs are the cause of most cases of tomale disease. Dr. Hartman was among the first of America's great physicians to make this di-fcoveiy. For forty years be has been treating diseases peculiar to women, and long ago he reached the conclusion that a woman entirely free from catarrhal affection of these organs would not be subject to female disease. B e therefore began using Peruna for these cases and found it so admirablv adapted t o their permanent cure that Peruna has now become the most famous remedy for female diseases ever known. Everywhere the women a r e using i t and praising it. Peruna i s not a palliative simply; i t cures by removing tho cause of female disease.

The value of a plaster cast as a portrait of the dead or living face cannot for a moment be questioned. It must of necessity be absolutely true to nature. It cannot flatter; it cannot caricature. It shows the subject as he was or is, not only as others saw him in the actual flesh, but as he saw himself. And in the case of the death mask particularly it shows the subject often as he permitted no one but himself to see himself. He does not pose; he does not "try to loot feasant." In his mask he Is seen, as it were^ with his mask off. Saved many a time. Don't neglect coughs and colds even if it is spring.

To the Berlin charge about the paste diamonds worn at Prince Henry's ball at Chicago the Windy City retorts that, anyway, they were not Rhine stones. It was the same old Fort Sumter that frowned down upon President Roosevelt at Charleston, but the times have changed since the days of the siege. The czar has massed 10.000 fresh troops in China.

In considering the cases incident to the discovery that a goodly number of Niles citizens hold the city treasurers* receipts for taxes on property which has been advertised for sale by the auditor general because it has been returned delinquent, Circuit Judge Cootedge has raised an important question whether the state is barred by the statute of limitations from the enforcement of a lien for taxes levied under the earlier tax laws.

Etc *** [Copyright, 1901. by Street and Smith, New York.] • CHAPT1TB X. l a the Street of the Steen, It a|I happened in quaint old Antwerp, and Charlie Stuart found reason to believe that seldom in romance or history had a more singular adventure befallen a pilgrim from London than chanced to ht3 lot on this same day. , The morning was half spent 'and Stuart found himself somewhat at a loss to know what he should turn to next for amusement. He had idled in tho markets, discovering new and attractive features constantly; had been through the various museums and picture galleries—in short, exhausted the sights of old Antwerp, and was on tho point ot considering his exodus, which wou'.d occur just as soon as he could make up his mind where his next objective point on thu map of Europe or tho world would be. Then it was that Fortune, flcklo jade, took the pilgrim from London by, the throat a3 it were, and radically changed the whole course of his exist ence. As he stood there idly twisting his blonde mustache., he became aware of the fact that someone was bearing down upon him at a swift pace, some one whose , quick, energetic movements reminded him irresistibly of a hawk pouncing upon its prey—someone who held out a hand in eager greeting and seemed bubbling over with animal spirits. Stuart welcomed him eagerly. His name was Barnaby—Artemus Wycherly Claude Barnaby—and his profession that of an amateur dramatic novelist. It was simpxy astonishing, the weird fancies generated in that erratic brain of his, each of which exceeded all others in phantasmagoric and, it must be confessed, sometimes ludicrous splendor. "Just the man of all England I wanted to see. Consider it a lucky omen, by Jove, to run across you in this manner. I'm going to en.1st your sympathy and co-operation in a little scheme I have on foot, my boy, and, you can depend upon It, I won't take 'no' for an answer, so consider yourself engaged as the second conspirator." "Well, I don't know about that; but what wild, hair-brained scheme have you on foot at present?" "Charlie, I've run across the noblest theme for a startling drama that ever bobbed up in anybody's path. Why, it actually opens an opportunity for fame and fortune to the gifted genius who has boldness enough to grasp the chance." "You have, of course, visited the Steen, that great castle down the street yonder, once a prison of the Inquisition, now a museum. Did you take a guide with lighted flambeaus and explore the frightful dungeons under the castle, each cell and corridor of which seems to exhale hideous memories of the tortures inflicted upon unfortunate prisoners in the Dark Ages, when Spanish cruelty ruled this country with an iron hand?" Stuart replied in the negative. Hte artist soul had feasted on the treasures which lay littered about the courtyard of the onetime palace; but the musty dungeons he had but hastily surveyed, being naturally averse to tho contemplation of such horrors. "Ch, I am glad of that." eaid Artemus, eagerly, "for you will be better prepared to accompany me to those same dungeons now." "The deuce!" exclaimed Charlio, taken aback; but, not in the least disconcerted, the other went on: "Tell me, have you heard the story or rumor that is circulated here and there through certain circles about <t modern man in the Iron Mask supposed to be incarcerated in the Steen dungeons?" "I remember hearing some little, talk about such a thing, but really never pursued,the subject." "Briefly, then, It has long been whispered that there was -recently, an/1 may still continue to be, a secret prisoner confined in a lonely dungeon under yonder massive pile of masonry— a man whose face is forever hidden behind ah iron mask that is secured by a padlock. I have reached the conclusion that this man of mystery might be some troublesome heir to the German throne, or else a son of Louia Napoleon. Think for a minute what wonderful possibilities this vista opens to the dramatist! it is quite enough to inspire the dullest mind! And I am resolved to explore those ancient dungeons personally, as no one has ever done before, with the secretly avowed purpose ot learning whether I may found my great drama upon a truth, or the mere fabric o'f a Dutch legend. And you will accompany me, my boy, out of pure philanthropy, to share in the exhilaration of success"—touching a suspicious bottlelike package he carried under his left arm—"or to support me in case of exasperating failure." - • — - - Charlie Stuart eould not say him nay; he really had nothing on foot whereby to kill time, and Artemus was such a jolly and original dog that it were worth something to have the pleasure of his society for a spac3 of time. So, hesitating, he fell. And, thus sauntering down the street of the Steen, the two ^friends arrived in the shadow of the great building whose history stretched back centuries into the dim past. —Together-iiiey-tmteredr like other pilgrims desirous of gazing upon the art treasures which lay within those ancient walls. Charlie had seen all these before, and cast but a casual glance around, being more deeply interested in the actions of his confederate. An old dame with her wide cap started toward them, but one""glanco from Artemus' eyes seemed to bring about a decided change in her intentions, for she .stood still, and then backed away. It was a signal victory, or, a3 Artemus expressed it, a "howling success;" nevertneless, his companion was still fain to believe the magic of gold had more to do with the old lady's sudden blindness than the exertion of rare hypnotic powers on the part of the proud wizard. Content to follow the other's lead, Charlie soon found himself in that apartment where several tall brass candlesticks stood upon an antique table, to be used in exploring tho mysteries below. Artemus motioned that he should straightway possess himself of one, In order that their candles might have a proper receptacle, and Char.ie, having enlisted for the war, come weal, come woe, took up the nearest of the lot, which was in itself a treasure of art. Nervously Artemus tried several keys in rapid succession, muttering to himself the while in a way peculiar to him. At last came a l'tle subdued screech that announced success on the part of the chattering idiot at his side. They were evidently in for it. since the ponderous door opened before them. Charlie was not the one to hold back, so he stepped beyond the portal and went down. Immediately the door closed, and tho clang of it was unlike any sound he could ever remember hearing. That creaking, rusty key nrned in the lock. "Now," said Artemus, in a shrill voice, pregnant with eager anticipation, "now we are in control, and the devil dungeons of the Steen must' yield up their ghastly secrets to a master." Down the venerable stairs £hey wended their way. Could those saniy steps have been gifted with the power of speech, what strange and startling iale3 they might have given forth, c-.' human misery, of historical personages and deeds that would have made the bravest cho-eks pale. But they were mute. The dread secrets of the dim past would ever be safe in their keeping. "Hark!" Artemus uttered this word in a shrill whisper, and at the same, time clutched -his companion's arm. Their surroundings were so eerie that it was not wonderful that his vivid imagination seized upon the slightest pretext lo arouse the ghosts that had lain here for long centuries. "What you hear is only the gurgling of the river Sheldt beneath our feet. At the foot of the worn stone staircase we descended there is a trap In the solid stone, through which opening many a wretched condemned man met his fate. Yes. it was only the fretful flood you heard crying peevishly for more victims." Charlie's calm manner quite reassured the other. "Perhaps you are right; but it sounded wonderfully like a human voice calling for help." Thus in tiers the dungeons lay, each individual one seeming to surpass its predecessors In awful associations. Long had they been at their task. The regular routine pursued by tourist and guide had been done; but there were other dark passages to explore, gloomy as the river S t y x - passages that the ordinary voyager never saw, but which Artemus was bound to Investigate; for if perchance there was a grain of truth tn ' thn story he had heard, surely the prisoner of tEe Jfoa MasS must b'e found in such an unused quarter. Charlie began to feel a bit anxious, He was about ready to confess that for one he had quite enough of it, and only figured on how he might manage to curb this insatiate ambition on the part ot his companion. The task was taken from bis hands, however, and in a most unexpected manner. Artemus was eagerly urging him on to "fresh fields and pastures new," while Charlie held the other in check, fearful lest they fall into some horrible pit, with rusty spikes at the bottom, such as they had discovered in one dungeon, when, suddenly, without warning, tnere came to their ears a sound so strange in this uncanny region, so utterly out of sympathy with thejr surj:ojand_ings, that both men stood Btill, as though paralyzed —and the sound was as of a woman weeping! !U*tME BAKINQ POWMR SEIZED CHAPTER IL What They Found. There were those who knew Prince Charlie well who had reason to believe he had passed through some unpleasant experience with lovely woman— been deceived, perhaps jilted. Although always gallant toward the fair sex, he seemed to be ever on his guard; as though quite determined no mortal who wore petticoats should have a second opportunity to play battledore and shuttlecock with his heart. But this was something entirely out of the common run; and as he stood there listening, to make sure there could be no mistake, he felt an electric thrill pervade his whole being, such as he never before experienced. Charlie determined to go forward. He was surprised at himself for the peculiar resolution that urged him on. It seemed as though he were being dragged forward by some inexorable fate, whether he would or not. And the sound of sobbing still continued, stealing along the gaunt passagewajrs. The darkness beyond was apparently as fearfully dense as that which descended upon poor, plaguestricken Egypt at the time Pharaoh declined to let the children of Israel go. ~ As Charlie advanced he noted that the sound, which had erstwhile reached their hearing but faintly, grew more distinct. Thus he was present-*. ly able to place the sobbing, and, still advancing, he began to discern the dim outlines of a figure upon i.he ground. As he drew closer he saw that this was a girl in a long cloak, and that she had hidden her face in her hands, as though to shut out the ghostly figures conjured up by the gloom. One thing was very sure—when Artemus, in the earlier stages of their exploration, declared he heard a faint shout, it had not been the gurgle of the greedy Sheldt gliding underneath the crypts and corridors, i s he (Charlie) had so confidently declared, but in all probability, this lost explorer calling for nelp, Well, thank God they had found her, and were in a position to render her the assistance she craved. After all, It had not been such a wildgoose chase as he had believed when yielding to the importunities of his adventurous comrade. They advanced closer still. As yet the distresse.. one was not aware of their presence, or the blessed answer to her prayers.

Considering the constant great inflow of immigration It is Impossible that the people could be otherwise than very mixed. Notwithstanding that, however, the last census shows that there is at same time a steady increase in the percentage of native American population. When the census of 1&90 was taken the protest of a Greater New York was yet under discussion. The total population of what is now the Greater New York was then, in round figures, 2,460,000, the number of native born inhabitants being 1,520.000, and of foreign-born Inhabitants 940,000.

TTh»t la th*. Tru© VForoan ? "Perfect woman, nobly planned, to warn, to comfort and command," described by Wordsv/orth as the ideal of his age, meets with various definitions at the dawn of the twentieth century. Kipling called her in "The Vampire." "a rag and a bone and a hank of hair," but this has not been accepted as the last word. Maeterlink is rather nicer, when he speaks of her as "the only mystic." Meredith says that by virtue of her abundant hair she is more of a vegetable than man. Isobel Osborne Stevenson, the stepdaughter of Robert Louis Stevenson, voiced one notion of womanhood at a tea given in her honor by Professor Eugene Lamb Ricnards of Yale. She had spoken of Mrs. Stevenson as about the perfect woman, borne one asked if she could write. "No," was the reply. A fire of questions developed the admissions that Mrs. Stevenson was not peculiarly gifted in any artistic direction, and that she had no great interest in charities or women's clubs. "Just wnat is your mother'3 specialty?" finally asked a young tutor's wife. "Oh," replied Mrs. Strong, "she can roll cigarettes and talk te men." A rostmasUr's Discovery. Lancaster, N.

Both are poisons and both of organic origin, but a venom is produced in secreting organs, commonly called poison glands, and is introduced into the system by means especially adapted for the purpose, such as htings or fan^s. On the other hand, a virus is the result of disease or putrefaction and generally possesses the property of exciting in the system into which it is introduced the disease which pradru-od the virus. A virus commonly produces little if any local disturbance. A venom generally oauses great pai:i. ol'ten severe inflammation and swelling. Vonom has a marked local eti'ect.

No one has ever discovered how much of bis reading m for pleasure, but "Charlie" is never seen without at least one book under his arm. The other day "Charlie" came to Dr. Emerson, and said sorrowfully: "Doctor, they wont let me take books out of the library any more." Dr. Emerson has a fine private library, and, moved by the sadness in "Charlie's" tone, said kindly: "Never mind, 'Charlie.' You may take any book of m'.ne you wish." Satisfied with this assurance, "Charlie" departed, and did not return for several days. Then he came back, and said doubtfully: "You said I might take any book of yours I wanted, didn't you?"

In the old days of gambling the men who played highest were very frequently the most easily duped. Wrothesly, duke of Bedford, was infamously robbed by a gang of sharpers of whom Beau Nash was tae head. The duke had been plundered out of over $350,000 at hazard, when, suspecting the dice to be loaded, he rose in a passion, put them In his pocket and refused to play or pay further until he had examined them. He retired to another room and fell asleep, affording the conspirators the chance to pick his pockets and substitute legitimate dice for the loaded. The duke on awakening and finding the dice correct played again and lost a further $150,000. Beau Nash, not getting a sufficient share formed the duke, venture befell a duke of Norfolk early in the last century. He went through the same ceremony of carrying off the dice and falling- asleep wun them In his possession., In this Instance, however, the thieves got a notorious desperado to go into the room with a brace of pistols and new dice, with Instructions to shoot the duke If the latter were awake and to change the dice If he were asleep.

'My dear girl, that's very kind of you, very kind.' I heard the czar ehuckltnt mightily to himself, so I looked more nearly at her, and God bless met it was the csarina herself.

The most popular tenant of a certain studio building In New York la a bachelor' anist whose place as a painter waa fixed very high years ago in public estimation. His name is one of a dozen that the average American would call off as' those of leading American artists, uut for the purposes -of this story he may be called Mr. House. People who know Mr. House will holt doufcfcfhe atoryl for it is characteriirac'of him. Not' long ago he decided that he needed a large frog/as a model for a certain picture. He went out to a pond }n New Jersey where just such froga were to be found and at the expense of wetting his shoes he succeeded in catching a fine specimen. He brought his frog home in a pail and left him in his studio while he went oat to dinner. When he returned, feeling wearied with his exertions, he fell asleep on his couch. He awoke with a atart about 11 o'clock at night. An ouusnal noise had aroused him. Everything in his studio seemed to be ail right Then his eyes were attracted to the tin pail in which he kept his frog.. There waa the frog suspended on,the edge, of the pail with his head hanging ever, looking at him steadily. The artist returned the look for a minute. During that time his ideas of froga underwent a change. There was something almost human in this frog's gaze. "I'm .jjot .going to hurt you, old chap,*' said the artist, "and when you have served my purpose I will turn you loose in the Union Square fountain." The frog moved his head slightly. "Perhaps that isn't as pleasant a place as your New Jersey pond. I wondet if they don't let that fountain run dry sometimes? There may not be the right kind of food there for frogs ' and pernaps the small—boys plague them. By Jove, perhaps there are no other frogs there! What then? This fellow might as well die as be isolated in that fashion." The-frog moved again as if agreeing with this last observation. "I never thought much about you fellows,** continued the artist; "and you probably have feelings something like human beings. You may have brothers to whom you are attached, and you probably have ymir own drams without whom you would be lonesome. I ought not to have brought you here. It was a thoughtless act1* The mtijce the artist thought about it the more his conscience pricked, until at last he decided to take the frog back to his own New Jersey pond. He could reach it by trolley. It was then nearly midnight He felt that he could not sleep with that melancholy homesick frog in his room, so he started for New Jersey with the tin pail on his arm. It was a nasty trip to this pond at night hut the artist made it, and when he was met on his return by his neighbor he said after telling the story: "The kerflop that frog mad » when he struck the water amply rewarded me for all my trouble." The neighbor who tells the story admits that it may sound a little foolish to people who don't know House, but aa the artist told it to him it waa tragic and convincing. "Oti! Good.

Judge Clarke of St. LcHls hat convicted and fined heavily a number of grocers for selling baking powders containing alum. The week before the Health Depart* ment of New York seized a quantity of stuff being sold for baking powder which they found was made from alum mixed with ground rock, and dumped it Into the river. , The Health Authorities are thus taking effective means to prevent the introduction into our markets of Injurious substitutes in place of wholesome baking powders. As alum costs only two cents a pound, there 13 a great temptation for those manufacturers who make substitutes and imitation goods, to use it Alum baking powders can be detected by the health authori tl es by chemical analysis, but the ordinary housekeeper, whose assistance in protecting the health of tha people is important, cannot make a chemical examination. She may easily know the alum powders, however, from the fact that they are sold at from ten to twenty cents for a pound can, or that some prize—like a spoon or glass, or piece of crockery, or wooden ware—is given with the powder as an inducement. As the people continue to realize the importance of this subject and consumers insist on having baking powder of established name and cnaracter, and as the health authorities continue their vigorous crusades, the alum danger will, it is hoped, finally be driven frorr our homes.

"The craft waa a little, shaky affair, which plied between St. Louis and Cairo. It had a stern wheel, a place for freight and passengers, a pilot bouse and a place on what may be called the pilot deck for the engine. "That *engine'4went aboard when it was needed, and only then. It burned no wood or coal, but ate a powerful sight of grass. It was a large gray mule named Jerry, which worked a treadmill that propelled the—boat. Samuel Clemens was chief engineer and pilot "He had a system of signals which was effective and ingenious. By pull' ing a cord he could raise a head of cabbage just out of reach of the mule. The 'engine' would start and begin to walk after it, and the boat floated majestically down or up the river, as the case might be. "Without desiring to be personal, I will say that Jerry was one of the most intelligent animals I ever met. His voice was more on the order of a fog horn than a whistle, being too much of a barytone for the latter.

There had been the handshake, the waving of handkerchiefs, the hymn, the prayer, the word which told the spiritual history of many a soul. The bishop stood upon the platform in the act of pronouncing the benediction. Emotion was at its height; it seemed as if a spiritual wave had crept over the multitude, wrapping it la a divine caress. At that moment a" little child—war passed up to the platform and the bishop took It in his arms. "Lost child," were the whispered words. The baby put its dimpled arms around the bishop's neck and laid its head upon his shoulder. Its yellow curls mingling with his gray hair. "Lost child," said the bishop. In his deep, sympathetic voice, "does anyone in the audience know this baby or to whom it belongs? Will the father and mother come and claim it?" There was silence and the baby nestled closer, and the women who sat near said "Oh!" Then a man was seen making his way to the altar; It was the baby'.-? father. Instantly the child stretched out its arms to go to htm. Then, as he gave it up, the bishop said: "There are 10,000 lost souls in Ocean Grove. The Father's arms are waiting to receive them. So, go to your Father's outstretched arms as does this little child."—Detroit Free Press. SEVEN PRINOIPAL ROUTES. It is a well-known fact that the C, M. & St P. Ry. system offers a great many different routes between Chicago and St. Paul and Minneapolis. Its main line between those points is especially well known as the route over which runs the famous "Pioneer Limited" and the Government Fast Mail Train. There are six or seven other routes over a number of which are run through coaches and sleeping cars, which are almost as direct as the principal main line. These various routes traverse the most interesting and attractive sections of Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa and Minnesota, including the celebrated "Lake Region" of Wisconsin, and cross the Wisconsin river at the famous "Dells," where is the most picturesque scenery in the Northwest The main line and several others include from 150 to 300 miles of romantic and picturesque scenery along the Mississippi river. On these various lines are located the most important towns and cities in the Northwest Both one way and special excursion tickets between Chicago, St. Paul and Minneapolis are honored via any one of these direct lines. The teachers attending the Natl on a1 Educational Convention at Minneapolis will appreciate and take advantage of this fact as they can have a choice of routes going and returning.

From all the evidence that can be produced it appears that some time ago the doctor went up against an old game. One of his friends met him and, producing a pencil, said: "Doctor, see this pencil?

Then the doctor tumbled and said, "That's pretty gocd. I'll just go down the street and try that on Theodore Hallam." Down the street he went, looking for Mr. Hallam. He finally found him and, producing the pencil, said: "Theodore, here's a pencil that I can write any color I want to with." Then the doctor gathered himself for a good laugh. "Let's see you write ecrti," said Mr. Hallam. The doctor smiled, picked up a piece of paper and started to work, and for ten consecutive seconds said nothing. Then he said swear words, and added: "I have forgotten how to spell that word." Pe-ru-M Crettioga National sensation is the Core of Chronic Ailments of the Kidneys. Major T. H.

JAPAN RUSHING TO BANKRUPTCY. Island Empir* 6f the KMt H M Be»a RfekleMlr Extravagant. Frederick Taylor, a son of the late Moses Taylor of this city, known internationally for his work as aa explorer was a passenger on the steamship Nord America, which arrived recently. Mr. Taylor made a study of the Boer prison camps in Ceylon and Bermuda, explored the Jungles of Borneo, visited the Malay Peninsula, and many points of interest in China and Japan. Mr. Taylor had no very exalted opinion of the commercial integrity of the Japanese, especially when compared with that of the Chinese. "It has been the experience," said he, "of all good sound banks in the far east and most particularly of the Chartered Bank of India, Australia, and China, that In all their dealings with Chinese merchants for many years they never lost a dollar, while with the Japanese they lost thousands. During the time I was in Japan eight banks failed. The Japanese government is in financial difficulty, largely the result of undertaking the building of its own ships, the establishment of steel foundries, and the expenses of war with China. Unless there are early reductions of expenditures, Japan will soon be bankrupt. But in the matter of enterprise the Japanese are the Yankees of the east" —New York Times. Wanted to B« Pr«p«r*4l.

The storm w a s the most severe In years, and embraces all parts of the lakes, but centering particularly over Lakes Michigan, Huron and Erie. Schooner Grace E. Grlbbe foundered off Point Pelee and went to pieces. Capt. Wilson and t w o men washed ashore on wreckage. Three sailors drowned. Details of the effects of the storm come in slow owing to the damage to telegraph wires. *" • * AljfotHto B a n k F n i U d .

George W, .Carman, t h e h e a d - o f t h e Marine Savings twruk of Marine City, will open a new bank at Algonac. Mr. Carman Is known all over the state and has been in the hanking business since 1879. There is the probability that considerable litigation will follow the failure, a s bankruptcy proceedings will be started. It appears that neajrly every merchant, sailor, hired girl and schoolboy or girl hod money in the defunct Algonae bank. The Algonae *enooi district had $100 in the bank; the township about $500; the village, $1)00; Harseu Island school district, $2,350; J. J. Harper, $2,350; the Maccabees, Odd Fellows and United Workmen small umounts, and about 100 other depositors had from $1 to $300. There was a meeting of the depositors Thursday afternoon in the town hall. Probate Judge Stephen Graham of Port Huron was appointed as their attorney. It is believed the bank's liabilities are about $32,000. The assets remain as yet unknown. .1. Will Mc- Keuxle bus left town.

This was decided by Judge N'ewnham when he granted a motion of the defense for a change of venue, but the county to which the case Is to be transferred has not been announced by the judge. When the motion was reviewed the judge asked the prosecution if it had anything to say und Mr. Ward replied he did not know that he had anything; that he fully appreciated the difficulty In securiug a jury here, that he considered a fair effort had. been made and that he would be satisfied with any course the court might take.

The president took luncheon in the women's building at the Charleston exposition. Think of strenuous Teddy eating lady fingers and lemon ice! The $250 fine imposed on the Princeton students for defacing a monument looks a good deal like visiting the sins of the children on the fathers. A man accused of murder in Detroit was wearing celluloid cuffs when arrested. Many persons therefore will doubt whether an alibi can save him. Roads Matt Obey Order*. The department of justice, at the request of the secretary of war, has directed District Attorney Oovell to be- Tin criminal proceedings against the Big Four and Pere Marquette railroads, for refusing to oliey the act of March 4, 1890. declaring Paw Paw river a navigable stream.

He pleaded guilty to that charge when arraigned, and was taxed a line of $10 and costs. The boy'n father, who is said to be a retired fanner, drove from Quincy during the night to render financial assistance to the son in his dilemma. It seems that young Barker, in company with another companion, were out for a time taking in several of the neighboring towns and became Infatuated with a pair of patent leather shoes, which was the cause of his downfall.

It contains a map showing an extreme area of about 11,000 square miles, confined to the central part of the lower peninsula. This map also shows roughly the elevation of the bed rock surface, from which the depth of drift under which the coal measures ire buried may be inferred. In the northera part this is very considerable, amounting to hundreds of f e e t and proves an almost insuperable bar to exploitation. Sections are also given which show the way in which the coal seams occur. There is an interesting discussion of the prospects of overproduction, which the author considers possible if the rate of increase in production is kept up, and also some figures on the value of coal lands and royalties. The customary royalty appears to be about 8 cents per ton. mwm. • r agara Falls. SERIOUS RIOTS IN RUSSIA.

AHOLXD THIS STATE. Shoektutjly Mangled. Caught by her long hair by a rapidly revolving sliaft, Pauline Becker, of Detroit, was killed almost instantly at the Physicians' Phnrmacal Co. laboratory, Thursday morning. So suddenly did the accident occur that the other employes had not time to turn at the sound of her scream of terror before her mangled and disfigured body fell to the tfoor. Miss Becker carried a tray of bottle* to some shelves where a whirling shaft was running, which she came too close- to kn mounting the steps with the tray. Her hair floated loosely and the suction of the shaft caught it. There was a scream and her body was whirled over the shaft at terrible speed. It struck against the beams and rafters, bespattering them with blood. The scalp of the girl was torn loose and her bodf fell against a partition Itetween two tiers of shelves. Her leirs had been Imttered off just l>elow the knee and her arms were broken in many places. Slxlh Murder l a Detroit. John Reinhardt, a stone mason living at 62 Scott street, was shot and killed Friday afternoon by Frank Colling, a 10-year-old boy, whose home is next door. The story of the neighbors as to the shooting is that both the man and l>oy, who live in adjoining houses, came home at noon time. The l>oy commenced to tease Ueinhardt and the latter, in a rage, picked up a sledge hammer and started for his tormentor. Then Colling pulled out a revolver and commenced to shoot. Four shots were fired around Reinhardfs feet, and then Colling raised the gun, and fired point blank at Reinhardt. The bullet pierced his heart and Ueinhardt fell dead. In the patrol wagon en route to the station <tolling manifested no regret for his crime. "Well, is the old guy dead?" he asked. ••Well, he got what he deserved," he added. F a r m e r s Lose by Fire.

He was, therefore, considerably surprised when, springing to her feet, she advanced a step or two toward them, holding out.her hands, a look of great joy illuminating her face, and in a voice which the echoes of her recent sobs still haunted, addressed them in purest English; "Oh, sirs! Heaven has heard my pray3r and sent you to my rescue!" Stuart made, up his mind then and there, strange' as such a proceeding might be, tha^thsre; was a deeper mystery about the presence of this, young girl in these terrifying surroundings than had at first occurred to him. Many things united to make him believe this—the fact of her not being missed by her' party, her maimer in avoiding any reference to the friencte who should be so anxious—yes, then and there h'e became convinced that a story lay back of it as startling, as any product of an opium smoker's dream. Charlie knew it would be well for him to divert the girl's mind as much as possible from the horrors she-had so recently been forced to face. Thus as they walked along, he even grew somewhat merry, and his object was accomplished, since the girl's temporary trembling fit had passed away and she was now calm enough to ask questiona regarding their opportune presence in the dismal place. Several times Charlie knew she was looking at him intently. He believed that he could guess the reason—that she had a story to tell, A story far out of the ordinary run, and was studying him when she thought herself unobserved, studying him to determine whether she dared entrust him with its astonishing details. CHAPTER l i t . Charlie Makes an Engagement. Who was she? This question came into Chalie's mind many times while they walked through those ghostly passages, seeking the worn, stone stairs at the top of which stood the roughly hewn oak door studded with rusty nails. At the foot of the worn stone steps the girl came to a sudden stop. "Sir," she said, addressing Charlie as though he were the only party in sight, "unless I am mistaken these eteps lead up to the museum of the Steen, and we have reached the exit of this horrible underground tomb." "We can be in the light as soon as I unlock tl\e door up yonder," he said Quietly. "One moment, before we ascend. 1 want to catch my breath—to tell you how grateful I am for your timely assistance " "Please don't mention it," said Charlie. "Indeed, it was a great pleasure, fair lady," chirruped Artemus, eagerly. "You overwhelm me with confusion. I have, as you may well suppose, received something of a shock, and hardly feel equal to the task of explaining to you Just now what strange circumstances brought me Into the desperate predicament from which I have been rescued by your assistance. But I trust I may. see you again soon, when the explanation that is due will be gladly given. Forgive me if I say I have been studying you all thiB time, and something tells me I may 'surely trust you with my life. God knows I need friendfe.'* ' , Her words thrilled Charlie. "Pardon me, miss—I should have told you before—my name is Charlie Stuart I am at present an exile from old Londoa, in search of a mission. Perhaps I have found one," he said, with an amused smile. A faint flush chased across her countenance. "And I—am Arline Brand." She had a small reticule attached to her girdle, as was the custom. Opening this, she took out a quaint little TnlaftT card case TThd^ handed" hlm^^blt of pasteboard. . "When you catl, ask for me under that name, by-which I am known. But let me say again—as a duty I owe you, Mr. Stuart—let me give you full warning that, while I appreciate the great favor you have done me, I must tell yo« I have enemies, and that If you should seek to continue the acquaintance so strangely begun, it might possibly bring you into trouble." . "I never jet have allowed fear of mortal man to influence my actions,'' Stuart raid, proodry. "But these man art cruel and nn- 4Janif*ic*Hy.opp^t*v Tett me, whrl & >{ *'<' ¥,*& *+***+*•**' ? * ''•'} * * stranger; I never aaw yon before." > /fQulte true, quite true, young sir/* that science has bees able to cure ia all Its states, sad that Is Catarrh Ball's Catarrh chuckled the other* "but 1 have seen medicalfntenuly^&urifcfelnga coustlt*.i scrupulous. You can realise that after seeing to what a dreadful fate they would have condemned me because I refused to carry, out their will." ™rhey are a set of-preciour scoundrels and cowards!" he declared. "Ah! but perhaps they are all-powerful at court—men in touch with a dynasty that can shake the earth if aroused, to whom one poor human life Is as a fallen leaf," she said, as If testing his loyalty. "It Is the same—I see no reason why I should draw back." Taking out his watch, he continued, in the most deliberate fashion: "It is now almost high noon. At eighty then, this evening, to the minute, I shall do myself the honor of calling upon you at your hotel, and until I am convinced that it is unlawful for me so to do, all the police of Antwerp shall not stop me in my rights of a British citizen traveling under the protection of his flag." Arline impulsively held out her hand. "I thank you. God bless you, Mr. Stuart!" she said, in broken tones. And Charlie, as he felt the little hand quiver and throb in his, found a strong indignation arising within his breast, directed against those unknown parties Who had so mercilessly condemned so charming a young woman to a cruel fate. It was Artemus who unlocked the heavy door and ushered them into the garish light of day, who gravely relieved Charlie of his brass candlestick and placed it, together with the rusty keys, where they belonged. Charlie saw that his companion glanced hastily to the right and left through her veil. Once he was almost sure she gave a start, but by no word did she signify discovery. "Could you get a cab for me?" she asked with a perceptible tremor in her voice. "Easily, no doubt There are usually vehicles waiting outside the Steen. This way, please." Before the vehicle started, Arline Brand threw back the veil, and again Charlie was given the privilege of rooking into those honest blue orbs, rivaling the heavens in their hue. "I will release you from your promise if you regret making it, Mr. Stuart,"- she said, softly. "Thanks; but I am a singularly obstinate man, I fear. At eight to-night I said. Besides, I confess to much curiosity to hear what you promised to tell." Those wondrous eyes, beamed upon him; a little hand crept out to allow of a parting pressure; then the vehicle lumbered away, leaving him there in front of the historic Steen, watching its progress down the crooked thoroughfare, and wondering at the change that had broken into his quiet life. When Charlie Stuart reiterated his rash promise with regard to seeing the owner of those marvelous cerulean orbs that same evening, he had but a faint conception of the magnitude of the task he had taken upon himself. He was dimly conscious of a figuro hanging from the rear window of a second old vehicle—a figure that made all manner of pantomime gestures, and in which he recognized his friend Artemus. Remembering the quaint methods by which Artemus invoked the dramatic muse, he ended with a laugh. "No harm done, I imagine," he said, aloud. To his surprise some one added: "That remains to be seen, young sir." Turning indignantly to see who had dared to thus address him without invitation, Charlie faced a middle-ased gentleman of military aspect, who was regarding him with much urbanity. "I am quite ready to explain the meaning of those words 1 uttered, yoang sir, on condition that you favor me with your name." Charlie's first hasty inclination was to refuse point-blank, but he had up to this point of his existence never known the time when he found reason to be ashamed of his name. It belonged to one of the best families in Scotland, and his ancestry datod back to the day8 of Bruce and Wallace. "That is a condition easily complied with, as I have never yet refused it to any man who felt enough interest in me to ask. It is Charlie Stuart4* The other bowed. "Good! I see we shall get on together amaxlngly well. There need be no trouble whatever, since we agree so charmingly," he said. "Ah! about what, now?" asked Charlie, once more keenly on his guard. , "H'm!

Then you must Jiive known my name. Why did. you ask for It?" with the light of suspicion and unbelief in his eyes. "To ascertain how far you would have confidence in me. I see you are incredulous; but, young mem, it is my especial business to know every stranger who comes to Antwerp, whether he be French, English, Russian, American or Turkish; also to discover as much with relation to his business here as is necessary to understand his status in society. AlthougU you have never met me before, I doubt not you would recognize my name. Permit me." A card was thrust into Charlle'a hand. Mechanically he glanced" at it. The result was peculiarly unpleasant It simply bore a name, but that name was as famous at St Petersburg and Paris as in Antwerp—Baron Demetrius Peterhoff. This wonderful man had been at the head of the famous Third Section in Russia; he had been the terror of Nihilists for years; an argus-eyed head of police; until, unfortunately, a cog slipped with fatal result, since tho Czar Alexander was murdered through-* the Instrumentality of a bomb, and from that hour Baron Peterhoff's usefulness in Russia was at an end. "Ah!" Charlie said, very calmly; "I have heard of you very often, baron; but, really, I confess the proBpect of meeting so renowned a character never entered my mind. To what am I indebted for the honor?" Again the distinguished gentleman uttered the word that had startled Charlie before. "To the pretty frauleln." Charlie frowned. "See here, baron—I know this lady as Mile. Arline Brand. Surely there must be a mistake." "She has golden hair?" "Yes." . "And eyes so blue"—holding up his hands In a dramatic manner that would have delighted Artemus—"that they shame the lovely skies of the Riviera." Charlie groaned an assent. A crushing weight seemed to press upon his brain and he felt as though tottering on the verge of a precipice. "As to the name," continued the baron, coolly* "what does it matter? Mile. Arline Brand is as good as another— indeed, when you come to examine it, there is something of the adventuress stripe about so delightful a cognomen, don't you think, young sir? To my knowledge that is only one of a score of different names the lady h&s adopted within the last few years." "Adventuress!" How like the shock of a rattlesnake's stroke the mention of that word fell upon Charlie's hearing. "Since you have been so kind as to give me warning, suppose you tell me who this wonderful lady of many names is?" he asked, coldly. "You must have heard of the Countess Isolde Brabant" It was a name he had often seen mentioned in London and continental papers, a name belonging to a beautiful Russian young woman, given over heart and soul to the cause of Nihilism, connected with high families in the Land of the White Czar, banished through royal decree, and now turned adventuress in Vienna, Paris and other capitals of Europe. He shuddered at the picture. "At least I am under favors to you, baron, for your kindness; and if I make a fool of myself it will not be for lack of warning." "Well, young sir, I owe my life to your father. Before Sebastopol, when a fierce engagement was in progress. I had been cut down and lay there helpless, when a squadron of British dragoons charged. They would have crushed me to atoms, but that a wounded Highlander captain, crawling over, shielded my body with his own, and, raising himself, waved his tartan in the air, at which the dragoons separated, sweeping past to the left and to the right That brave Highlander was your noble father. For years we corresponded; but in my eventful life the memory of the debt I owed him—more shame to me—became obscured by other Issues. Young sir, for his sake I have sought to save you from the snare of the fowler. Be warned In time." A cab, doubtless previously signaled, dashed up, the bu waved his hand to Charlie, and waa gone. He left a very puzzled and deeply worried young man in front of the Steen. Charlie seemed wrestling with the problem, and drawn first this way, then, that; hut Me natural obstinacy finally won out "Well," he muttered through hie teeth, *'I amid eight o'clock to-night; and, come weal or come woe, I shall keep the appointment" (To be continued.)

Mr. Morton had been in poor health for more than a year. The death of his youngest son, Carl Morton, at Waukegnu, last January, was a great blow to him, ami it is auid that he never recovered from it. His serious illness dated from last November, when he contracted a severe cold as he was speaking at the stook show in Chicago. The achievement of which Mr. Morton was proudest was his founding., of Arbor Day, which is observed each year on April 22 throughout the country with the planting of trees. WORTH A KING'S RANSOM.

A speaker at a Nebraska institute said: The critical time with the brood sow is the first two weeks after she farrows. Many pigs are lost by overfeeding the mother with corn and giving chilling drinks; which produce indigestion and fever. Don't be in too much of a harry to get the porkers to market, and in your desire to see them start tor that point kill half the crop and stunt the balance by overfeeding tfte dam. Above all things, keep your sow bedded with clean, dry straw and give them all the sunlight possibledamp nests are fatal to young litters. Exercise is absolutely necessary for young pigs, especially it the sow suckles well; in this way preventing (frumps, which carries off the finest of tfce litter. We never saw a case of thumps where the sow and pigs had exercise enough. The better the sow the greater the danger of loss from thumps, and the more need of exercise- Taken in time, we consider there is leas danger from thumps than colds and scours; this trouble can easily be brought on by just one overfeeding of the sow or young pigs; gvard against this by not overfeeding the sow for the first ten dfcys after farrowing. plained how it was possible, with many engagements daily, exceptional instances of such abuses might occur without typifying the conduct of the army, which on the whole was humane and considerate toward the natives."

There arcTlwf few reports of injury to early deciduous fruits in California by frosts duving the season thus far, and no reports of serious damage. Nearly all varieties were somewhat late in blossoming, which is greatly in favor of good crops, and unless heavy frosts should occur within the next few weeks these fruits may be considered safe for an unusually heavy yield. Citrus fruits are in good condition. , Fruit prospects in West Virginia, -with the exception of peaches, which are reported to be killed in some counties, are excellent. Correspondents \n a few of the south- •ern counties of Missouri report that peaches have not been greatly injured and there will probably be a few in other sections. The early varieties are now in bloom in the extreme southern •counties. Apples promise a good crop, but it is believed that in most sections small fruits will be light, owing to the drouth last season. Citrus trees in Florida have passed through the winter in good condition. A good bloom is in evidence, and the outlook is promising. Pineapples are very satisfactory. Hating YMnff nuts. The time for the mating of young gilts depends upon their individuality. If they are inclined to become leggy they should be mated so as to farrow their first litter by the time they are one year old. On the other hand, if they are undersized they should not farrow until they are at least fourteen months of age. In order to secure a successful farrow the brood sow should receive considerable attention /rnxn now nn, am\ arhufhAy ahe w i l l ba successful or not depends upon the feed, care and attention given her. It ahe has received a liberal feed of shorts and bran, with a feed of roots occasionally, and has had access to salt and ashes at all times, and received plenty of exercise, there is no •reason why she should not produce a .strong, vigorous litter of pigs.—0.

It Kaa not Men ^eneratly-HhotttWthat centrifugal separation bad any particular Waring on the bacterial content of milk. Recently, however, Prof. C. H. Eckels of the Iowa Agricultural college has demonstrated that separation does really remove a very large percentage of such bacteria. The germ contents of eight lots of milk were determined, and the lots then run through the separator. The result was that of all the germs In the milk at first, 47 per cent appeared tn the separator slime. The Bklm-milk contained 29 per cent only of the germs in the original whole milk. That left only 24 per cent in the cream. It will i:hus be seen that the cream is much richer in bacterial life than is the whole milk or even the skim-milk. Though the sklm-milk contained 29 per cent of the bacteria in the whole aiilk, it must be remembered that the cream is much less in bulk than the ^kim-milk. Relatively the cream by .centrifugal separation has jibout 20 times as many bacteria as doesTTfie same bulk of sklm-milk. Frotela Consumption. The scientists are gradually getting clown to the foundation of the problem of protein consumption. At St Anthony's Park a number of testa have been made to determine the amount of protein necessary to keep a milch cow in good condition, One experiment was carried on for 84 days, and in it wheat was compared with barley and corn. The twelve cows used weighed on an average 954 pounds. The average amount of food eaten was 24.30 pounds. This food contained 2.01 pounds of protein, 12.03 pounds of carbohydrates and 0.5S pounds of fat These cows were all giving milk at the time, and it was found that 1.35 pounds of this protein was used in the making of milk. It was therefore calculated that 0.66 pounds was used for maintenance of body. The milk produced amounted to 26.96 pounds daily, containing 4.1 of butter fat It will, therefore, be seen that about one-twentieth of a pound of protein was consumed for every pound of milk produced. Acid In KU»K<>. A bulletin of the Oregon station discusses silos and silage. A number of analyses of silage made for the purpose of determining its acidity are given in tables. It was found that the liquid constituents of immature clover containing 79.44 per cent of rnolstun; were loet, to a certain extent by oozing out at the bottom of the silo. A chemical analysis of this exudate showed a protein content of 1.13 per cent. In one experiment water was added to clover silage approximately at the rate of one gallon per 100 pounds of material, to determine its influence on the acidity and the protein content The loss of dry matter and the degree of acidity were greatest in the moistened silage. It is considered that acidity and loss of dry matter, which occurs in carbohydrates and allied substances go hand in hand. Immaturity of the plants and extreme compactnesa of the silage favor the development of organic acids. A r o e a U a r Ca«e. A peculiar thing happened a few days ago not far from Manaia. A lady, while engaged milking her cows, took a long hat pin from her hat and sticking it through a handkerchief placed the two upon a post. Shortly afterward a valuable cow happened ;o see the handkerchief which she forthwith devoured, swallowing the long pin at the same time. Next day the animal swelled up very considerably and appeared to be in pain, so trie butcher was sent for to despatch her. Fortunately the man could not go then and next day the cow had completely recovered and was back to her normal milking point, so that the owner of the cow was by pure good fortune prevented from losing a few pounds. How the cow succeeded in getting rid of the huge pin is a mystery—but she did,—Witness (New Zealand). Kama E*p*rt jConctn*Ion». Prof. T. L.

F. L. ANDREW31& CO. PRbPRirroftS. THURSDAY, MAY 8, 1902. UNITED STATES GEOLOGICAL SURVEY. C H A R L E S D. W A L C O T T , Director. The Portland Cement Industry iu Michigan. The history of the Portland ce -ment industry in Michigan b e g i r d limestone, says Prof. Israel C. Bussoll, of Ann Arbor, in P a r t I I I . of t h e X X I I . Annual Report of the United States Geological Survey now in press, with the year 1872, when the Eagle Portland Cement Co. built a cement plant about two miles northeast of Kalamazoo. The factory was contiuued in ope r a t i o n u n t U aboai—1882, but aotraces of the kilns are now in exa fine powder. T h e cement as it comes from the g r i n d i n g machines, is of such fineness t h a t from 90 per cent to 98 per cent of it should pass t h r o u g h a sieve having 100 meshes to the inch. I t is then ready for use, but usually improves with age. T h e raw materials which enter into t h e composition of Portland cement thus far used in Michigan are limestone, marl, shale, clay gypsum and fuel. Ono of the limestones used is t h e D u n d e e extending ""inPn."""belt" from about 2 to 9 miles wide northeast and southwest across Wayne, Monroe and Leuawee counties in the souheasteru corner of the State. The stone is found also at the extreme northern end of the southern peninsula. T h e beat D u n d e e limestone t h u s far discovered is exteusively quarried at Sibloy and Bellevue, istence. Some three miles of sidewalk were put down in Kalama zoo with this cement, and after 15 j ment or 20 years of use are still in ex- i group near Trenton, in W a y n e county, and is used by the Michigan Alkali Co. for making P o r t l a n d ceat Wyandotte. Another of limestone rocks, the celleut condition. The next fac- Traverse group, crosses Wayne tory for making Portland Cement j and Monroe counties in a belt was erected by the Peerless Port- ! about 8 miles wide, a n d crosses land Cement Co., in 1896-7, at i also the n o r t h e r n e n d of the Union City, aud was followed by ! southern peninsula from Alpena, the erection of the factories of the I on the border of lake Michigan. Bronson Portland Cement Co. at Bronson, in 1897, and of t h e Michigan Portland Cement Co. at Coldwater, in 1898. Portland cement is an artificially prepared substance which has the property of hardening in the air or water when mixed with a suitable proportion of water, and of remaining hard when immersed in water. In its manufacture, a mechanical mixture of finely pulverized limestone or marl and clay or ground shale is calcined, or burned, as the common expression- is, and the resulting clinkeris ground to a fine powder. This is the Portland cement of commerce. I n addition to tlin raw materials, which enter duvctly into the composition of P o r t l a n d cement, fuel is necessary for burning them. F o r this purpose, in upright kilns crushed coke is generally used; and in the rotating kilns a jet of gas, of petroleum, or of finely pulverized coal is forced in by means of an air blast. T h e type of the kiln now almost universally used in America consists of a steel cylinder about 60 feet long and G or 7 feet .in diameter, lined with refractory material. These furnaces are rotated rapidly in a nearly horizontal position. The cemeut is manufactured bv what are known respectively as the "wet" and the " d r y " processes. I n the wet process the finely ground limestone and clay are mixed with about 60 per cent of water, and this "slurry" is caused to flow into the higher e n d of the rotary kiln in a small stream. I n the dry process the slurry is only sufficiently moistened to prevent it from being blown away as dust. As the slurry travels down the cylinder, it is raised to a w h i t e heat; and the resulting clinker runs*from the rotary in a continuous stream of white-hot pellets, which, after cooling are ground to ]><mt start wrong. Don't btart the summer with a lingering cough or cold. We all know r_rv that a "summer cold" is. It's the hardest kini to cure. Often it "hangs on" through the entire season. Take it in hand right now. A tew doses of One Minute Cough Cure will set yon right. Sure cure for eoughs, colds, croup, grip, bronchitis, all throat and lung troubles. Absolutely safe. Acts at once. Children like it. "One Minute Cough Cure is the bf*t cough medicine I ever ^nsed," says J. H. Bowles, Groveton, N. H, "I never found any thing else tbat acted so safely and quickly." /At W. B. Darrow's. T h i s limestone is utilized at Alpenr by the Alpena P o r t l a n d cement Co. Another limestone g r o u p , t h e Monroe formation, is exteusively quarried in the southeastern p a r t of the State, b u t its adaptability for the manufacture of P o r t l a n d cement is doubtful as j y^t. The limestone of t h e Mich- I igan series outcrops at Bayport j and Sebewmg in H u r o n county, on the east side of Saginaw Bsy I on the Charity Islands, at Belle-! yne in Eaton county, and near the , P o r t a g e river, 5 or 6 miles north . of Jachson. ' The marl beds of Michigan occur in abundance throughout the southern peninsula, and are known to be present also to the north of the Strait of Mackinac. These marl beds vary in extending from a few acres up to h u n d r e d s of acres, and, in many instances, for an average depth of 20 feet or more. The shale used by t h e Alpena Co. is quarried about 7 miles north of Alpena and near the shore of lake Huron. T h e cold water shales are now q u a r r i e d at a locality about 1¼ miles east of Union City, and are utilized by the' Peerless Co. T h e xVntrim shales are exposed on t h e shore of T h u n d e r Bay and also at -several localities in Charlevoix county, though they have not, as yet, been used in making cement. The Saginaw shales are found in several mines near Saginaw and Bay City, and at F l u s h i n g . T h e lake clays of Michigau, suitable for cement making, are distributed about the border of the southern peninsula, for example, between Detroit and Ypsilanti, about P o r t H u r o n , South Haven, W h i t e h a l l , over the Saginaw Valley, and also in numerous local basins throughout the state; but it should be noted that iu general t h e surface clays of the southern peninsula are not well adapted for makin g Dangerous if neglected. Burns, cuts and other wounds often cement although some of t h e stony clays, if crushed sufficiently fine, may be used for that p u r - pose. I t is commonly found desirable to add a small per cent of gypsum to cement clinker before grinding. Michigan possesses extensive deposits of gypsum, particularly at G r a r d Rapids; and it is from that place t h a t most of the factories in this state deiive their suply of gypsum. The fuel used for heating the rotary kilns is usually bituminous coal; ivhich has" ~bwn— thoroughly dried and ground to a fine dust This dust is driven into the lower end of the kiln by means of an air blast, and on ignition produces a jet of flame some 15 feet long. Both crude petroleum aud pulverized peat have been used, but coal dust is regarded as the best fuel. The Portland cement industry has had a favorable—development in Michigan in the last few years. The Bronson and Peerless cement companies began operations in 1897, and by May 1901 10 factories wer producing cemeut and 6 others were in process of construe tion. The capacity of the 10 plants now built is about 2,400,- 000 barrels of cement per annum. The capital stock of all the Michigan cement companies is a b o u t 825,000,000, and their estimated capacity is, approximately, 8,000,- 000 barrells of cement per year. T h e total consumption of P o r t - land cement in the United States during the year 1900 was between 10,000,000 and 11,000,000. barrels, and the amount manufactured was nearly 8,500,000 barrells. I t would seem, then, that Michigan is preparing to supply a demand which does not appear to exist as yet, and as there is a similar activity in this same direction iu several other states, it would a p - pear to be evident that the Portland cemen-t i n d u s t r y is ill a spe culative stage.

Mr. Carnegie says he is "not a philanthropist" He doesn't want to die disgraced—that is all." Dr. English, the author of "Ben Bolt*" contributed more to the success of "Trilby" than Du Maurier did. Suppose indigestion does cause lying in mild forms—some cooks are lucky that it does not cause murder. A horse twenty hands high is the latest Kansas production. It will make a good mount for Minerva Nation. Just to sort of wind up the "r' * season, word comes from Baltimore that a man in that city choked to death on an oyster. •'God bless my people, black and white," were the last words of Wade Hampton. There is a text which needs no sermon. Ben Butler's monument will have to wait until a generous public can decide whether to locate it at Boston or New Orleans. German professors say American meat is all right; but then the professors are not interested in any German hog farms. Kipling's reference to Cecil Rhodes a s a "devout" man seems to be stretching the de mortuis maxim to the breaking point Now that chorus girls are beginning to write books, perhaps the baldbeaded men will have a chance to figure as novel heroes. Those fellows in Belgium who have three votes each think it is preposterous that those with but one each should want a change. A German newspaper has been calling J. Pierpont Morgan "an unscrupulous adventurer." Yet we have not declared war on Germany! Gen. Chaffee reports a brief engagement with the Moros at Parang Parang. This cannot be very far from the province of Ping-Pong., Mr. Carnegie says "poverty is a ricn heritage." Mr. Carnegie gets off these little things with the comfortable air of a man who has dined well. Since the Nebraska Indians have formed a relic trust persons who desire to purchase ancestral scalps may expect to pay hair-raising prices. There are people Inquisitive enough to want to know how many times in seventeen years, anyhow, the seventeen year locusts may be expected. Five hundred girls from New York stormed the White House and shook hands with the president. No, it will never do to elect Hobson to that office. Morally speaking, limburger cheese has one great advantage over oleomargarine. Nobody can accuse It of trying to pass itself off for something else. Mme.

The Alnrc»nn<' Bunk. The hearing in the Algonac Banking Co.'* receivership, bet ore Referee in Bankruptcy Davock, was held ami a uuiuber of witnesses examined. Attorney Frank T. Wolcott, for Receiver Lewis T. Bennett, was seeking to elicit information from the witnesses which would tend to discover more property that should he properly added to the assets of the failed institution. The j two principal items of that kind arc the proceeds of the mortgage executed ' by Financier McKenzie just, before his departure on the Kean farm, upon which a loan of JjL'l.riOO w a s obtained through Attorney Hutma, of Sarnla. and the *lt»,O0O worth of collateral in possession of the .Moore Bros.' hank at Marine City, u« security for~a-$u.noo - loan. In the mortgage case Attorney George G. .Moore assorts that it wns executed to save .something for the Kean family out of the wreck, and as it is held by the alleged Innnoeent purchasers, and the money secured thereon has been turned over to Mrs. Kean, its whereabouts will have to l>e discovered before it can be confiscated. In the matter of the bank's collateral, so much thereof as can be shown to have l>een received by the bank within the four months prior to the failure, can be recovered back to the receiver under the haukruptcy laws, but upon this question the testimony adduced was very hazy. Charles Doyle, manager of the Marine City Bank, was somewhat uncertain in his evidence, and it WHS not clearly established how much of the collateral would become subject to the bankruptcy laws. Cashier McKenzie was present at the hearing. There was quite a strong array of legal talent present to help unravel the% snarl. The examination was adjourned until next .Friday.

Logon attacked City Warm Senate Debate. The senate warmly discussed the Phillipine question Saturday, the majority inembors taking an iunning. Up to this time the minority practically has laid a clear field in the debate, the policy of the majority being to permit the criticism of the Democratic members of the body to proceed without interruption. Mr. Spooner, of Wisconsin; Mr. Lodge, of Massachusetts, and Mr. For* aker. of Ohio, spoke in defense of the administration, of the army, and of Gov. Taft. They spoke hotly, and almost unrestrainedly. The result w a s one of the most spirited debates that has yet occurred on the Philippine question. Wliile the debate took a wide range, it revolved around the resoltitlon^tTATTlnir for-Ma}. Cornelius Gardener in the Philippine Islands, to appear as soon as possible before the Philippine committee as a witness. A cablegram from lieu. Chaffee w a s read by Mr. Lodge, saying that it w a s Impracticable for MaJ. Gardener to leavt the islands at present, as he w a s an essential figure in a court of inquiry which was investigating the condition* of the province of which he w a s provincial governor. Senator Lodge in referring to the matter of the immediate calling of Gardener said: "It is perfectly monstrous to bring Maj. Gardener here and allow him to make his accusations in a committee room of the senate, when the officers against whom he makew them are thousands of miles a w a y in the Philippines."

It is up to Maj. Gardener to make good on his charges in connection with the conduct of the war in the Philippines, else he will have to face a courtmartial. He is being blamed as largely responsible for the trouble that has been raised In congress, and some verv uncomplimentary things are being said about him. Gardener was never very popular in the army, and now that he has brought himself into prominence by the report he wrote, all sorts of stories are bolns told regarding his army record, which is seemingly being looked up for future use. It is claimed that Gardener has no brockets to his credit as a fight er and that he has always had a faculty of avoiding the firing line. H e was detailed as governor of Tavabas, but the tale is being circulated that he wanted the position, while other officers preferred to remain on active duty and fight.

And the Professor, Too. laps It was a rash resolve—possibly 6harlie Stuart should have accepted the baron's well-meant warning for its full value, aud have left Antwerp by the first train. But it was only theT \voT^"df7th~e"ba.rou against his own powers of perspicacity, and Charlie did not see why he- should yield so easily. . In other words, he was «at ready to believe in the story the %*sy;derful baron hud related, without more abundant proof. Perhaps he might even doubt it until the action of Arline Brand convinced him of her guilt, or her own sweet lips confessed it., That was Charlie's idea of friends h i p . With the disappearance of the baron from the r.ceae, Charlie supposed, the shew war. over for the morning. He was mistaken. While he stood th-ife on tlie curb, a prey to distracting thoughts, he ' wan being closely watched by a man who had been lounging jcit inside the entrance of the Steen courtyard. When Stuart started to move away, the gentleman appeared to lose the last vestige c-f control which he pca-^ SOS3€d. He ran after the retreating figure. The patter of footsteps just behind him natuarlly caused Charlie to half turn; perhaps he thought it might be the baron, with yet another choice bit of information with which to add to his stock of cheerfulness, or mayhap Artemus desirous of overtaking him. He was immediately undeceived. A florid-faced gentleman, who looked as though he might have been dallying with the wine too long, but with hot passion glowing in his eyes, was close upon him. Even as Charlie stepped back a pace, thinking the man was drunk, or in a great hurry to catch a train, to his intense surprise the stranger slapped into Charlie's face a pair of kid gloves he carried. Luckily. Stuart had a cool head for one of his race, or they would have had it out then and there in the respectable street of the Steen. He saw that the man had a grievance, though utterly in the dark as to what its nature might be, "See here! Who are you?" asked Charlie. "Aha! I am Herr Professor Richter of Dresden." Charlie shook his head. "Still I am groping in the dark. To my knowledge I never had the pleasure of meeting you, professor." The German scowled angrily. "Which is one good thing for you, sir; and now that you have met me, you shall give me the satisfaction of a gentleman. To-morrow morning it must be, with pistols—or do you prefer swords? Blood alone cau wipe out the base insult." ''Suppose you tell me, Herr Professor, how I have offended you. Surely. it could not-be a matter serious enough to call for a duel." "How?" roared the German, dancing up and down, his eyes glaring, his hands working as though, eager to clutch the other's throat. "After destroying my honor, you profess ignorance, scoundrel! Then I will tell you. even though every gossip in Antwerp learn of my shame. By running away with my wife!" "What?" Charlie was so staggered by the accusation that he could hardly catch his breath. He had passed through some strange experiences during his life, hot this was really the first time he had ever been accused of such an escapade. "But, Herr Professor, 1 swear to you I never set eyes upon the lady in question." "You lie, rascal! Did I not with my own eyes see you put her in the carriage, and stand there watching her drive away! You are guilty!" Poor Charlie felt as limp as a dishrag. This connection with Artemus and his irrepressible dramatic fever was bringing about the most agonizing esults. thought! There is another infernal mistake about it. This queer old town is all upset, it seems." Then he suddenly remembered the card she had given him, with her address; as he had not thought t o look at it, so he hastily drove into his pocket and drew out the case in which-hi* had placed it fresh from her hand, only to receive a sad shock as he read: "MADAM SOPHIE RiCHTEIt, "Hotel de la Praix, Antwerp. Dresden." Weil, there it was. In black and white he saw the miserable evidence be-fore his eyes. Still he was grimly determined to keep his engagement for that evening, come what might. Oh! sublime faith! It would repesittve "Well, a l i i say is, I must have done it in my sleep. But I gave yon my word, and if 1^ cannot prove my innocence, I will give you the satisfaction you demand." "To-morrow, a t sunrise?" eagerly. "As you say. There is my card, pro* feasor. Leave the particulars at my hotel." Stuart stood looking after the learned disciple. "She the wife of that bow-legged, heavy-brained scholar? Perish t h e • * quire mountains to crusli~a belief in the conviction of his own eye3 and his own intuition. Dinner came next. He could amuse himself with a thousand* and one theories bearing upon the case. Charlie was enjoying his dinner 'with a fair amount of satisfaction, considering what a load he carried upon his mind, when Artemus, who had been given his address, made his appearance. Stuart immediately decided to make a full disclosure. An opportunity came in good time whereby they could converse without heing overheard. Thon Charlie let loose. He fairly staggered his companion with his first volley, containing the account of the famous baron and his charge that Arline Brand was the most dangerous as well as notorious adventurer in all Europe. While Artemus was yet gasping from the effect of this hot shot, Charlie poured in grape and cannister. He sketched the dramatic advent of th^ professor on the scene, the challenge to a. duel he had flung at the supposed disturber of his family peace, Charlie'^ amazed questions concerning yellow hair and blue eyes, and finally the solemn agreement that had been reached between them. Charlie, having exhausted his repertoire, now turned the tables. "What became of you, my dear boy?" he asked. "I waved you farewell," Artemus said. "Then you Were not in the second coach?" "Ay, ay. You see. the fair ladv neglected to favor me with one of her cards, and I was compelled to adopt measures of my own in order to discover her residence. She went to the hotel in the Rue de Mennisters." "That's the De la Paix." with a frown, remembering the card he held. "Yes. my boy, the same. I was satisfied that I had found out juct where she put up but curiosity induced me to waylay the doorkeeper, he who opened the carriages and exercised the functions of factotum. So, putting a bit of silvet in his hand, I as'ived him who the lady might be—she with the veil over her face. He scratched his head as though a bit puxzled himself, and then suddenly answered, as though at random: " 'Mile. Brand.' " Charlie had been listening eagerly. He gave vent to au exclamation of satisfaction. "Artemus, ycu are a brick!" "So." continued the other, with a grim smile, as though he could scent something that had not yet become visible to the naked eye, "I came to the conclusion the young lady had given us her true name, after all, though she hinted at possessing another." "Yes; why did she say that?" mused Charlie. "But one thing seems c l e a r - there is an Arline Brand, after all: and to-night I am bound to discover what relation, if any, connects her with this bold, intriguing countess, or the runaway wife of the Herr Professor— either that, or to-morrow 1 am bookvl for a duel." . Charlie Stuart saw the shades of night close in upon the old city of Antwerp with a sigh of deep satisfaction. ~~ReucU!iig the hotel he boldly asked to see Madam Sophie Richter. Some time elapsed while he waited. He was on needles and pins—hung up, as it were, on tenter-hooks by suspense. "The lady awaits melnherr In the little parlor over yonder," at last canij the message. Charlie drew in a long breath and entered. • He felt a sensation of tremendous relief. For the lady, while pleasant and even handsome in her appearance, was a stranger. - He bowed courteously to the lady. "I am a stranger to you, lady—an Englishman, Stuart by name. Thrqugh some misadventure I have' become, much against my will, I assure you, mixed up in your domestic arrangements, and I have come here to throw myself upon your mercy and beg your gentle Indulgence a s an intercessor." The lady looked astonished. "Sir, explain. Who seeks to do you harm, and of whom am I to beg indulgence?" she asked. "Madaia, there is a t large in Antwerp a man who has sworn to have the life of the wretch who has robbed his quiet home of its one bright jewd —who prowls hither and yon, regardless of his personal appearance, breathing vengeance, and ready to sacrifice all he has on earth if he can but avenge his honor." ~^-"You really mean that the professor is here in Antwerp?" "Raging around like a mad bull." "That at last ho has left his musty old books?" "Very much in evidence, I assure you." "Then our stralegem worked," she laughed. "Pardon my ignorance, madam, but I am inclined to think it worked only too well, since I, an entirely innocent man, am booked to meet the professor^ in a duel to-morrow a t sunrise, becaus^^forsobtfiT lie chanced t o see me place a lady in a cab—a lady who had golden locks, and whom the old— I mean the jealous professor—chose to fancy was the wife of his bosom." The lady laughed aloud. "In a duel! He fight for me! Ob, charming! It is too good!' What will Cousin Hildegarde say?" "I'm sure I don't know; but I'm anxious to convince this old fire-eater that he has gotten hold of the wrong man, and I am certain you will assist me to prove my innocence." "Oh, sir, most certainly; especially as there is no man in the matter at all, and t!?e object of our little escapade h a s ' been accomplished. Since you have been put to more or less inconvenience in the premises, it would be only fair for me to explain." The story was nothing new, though its sequel gave evidence of considerable originality, thanks to the appearance of the bright-witted Hildegarde on the scene. Madam and the professor had not been the happiest couple in the world. He was wedded to his books, and neglected his pretty wife. Long ha-.l she suffered, and doubtless wouU have continued to do so, only that his cousin took'the bull by the horns and suggested a strategem whereby the student should be aroused and made to realize how dear to his heart this wife of his really might be. It was the old principle over again —of not missing the water until the well ran dry. And one day, whea the learned man found his blue-eyed spouse gone, and a few lines simply signed H. begging her by her love to meet the writer in Antwerp, which note she had apparently dropped in the haste of her departure, the professor threw his books to the winds and started in pursuit. "To think—he would even fight, and for me!" she said, almost incredulously. "Indeed, he is distracted enough to defy Fate itself. But, madam, you may do me a favor," boldly. "You have but to name it. sir." "This lady whom I had the pleasure of serving—this lady whom your furious husband saw me put into a carriage—gave me a card and invited me to call upon her here a t the hotel to-night." "Ah! yes," with a bright smile. "She gave me a card. I did not look a t it just then, but after the ridiculous encounter with your husband, in which he accused me of stealing his i wife, and threatened me with death nu ! the field of honor, I took occasion to investigate, and found—this." He handed the card to her. One glance, and the professor's wife laughed. "Yes. it is my carte-de-visite; but. ou my honor, Meinherr Stuart. I did not give it to you." "That I know very well. What I wish to discover is, who did? There :s a young lady, also with such golden hair and blue eyes "as you yourseli possess; she is stopping at this hotel. Now. you must have at some time exchanged cards with her. Can yon not remember the circumstance?" The professor's wife nodded eagerly.

Rear Admiral Evens in the May issue of McCluro's Magazine says: "For comfort and luxury, the special train on which he traveled made a lasting impression upon the Prince and his suite. Prince Henry said: "I have seen t i e '.>mt equipement on Russian Railroads and they are the best in jEurope; but I have never seen or imagined that a train like this could be put together." Coming from such and authorativ.e source this is indeed a compliment especially so as two of the cars, the Iowa and Ohio, belong to the regular equipment of tbe Chicago Great Western Ry.

When he had cornered the clerk he made his request known, and a messenger was sent to find the countess and request her presence in a aearby bijou parlor. Minutes passed. Still no one came to summon bim. Tired of waiting ;he walked directly to the door of the little parlor and stepped inside. Involuntarily a groan welled up from hia heart He had entered this room to meet the countess, that charmer erf men, who played with amba&sadoe* and princes as though they were ,pawns upon a chessboard. and now he had found—Arllne Brand r There she stood before him, more beautiful thin even his ardent recollection had painted her, a smile of welcome dimpling her cheeks, the azure eyes glowing with pleasure. Yes, It was Arline Brand. Ye goUs! if she and the countess were Indeed one, he could readly comprehend how men were ready to give np honor and fortune for the hope of her love and favor. Almost a minute they stood thus, each evidently busy with a train of thought Arline was the first to recover. She dropped the curtains and advanced towaad .him. "Ah! you have come, Mr. Stuart," she said. He took hex band 'and pressed i t Boldness was returning it seemed. "Yes, I promised, you know; and, though I daresay I bave legions of faults, at least my word is as good as my bond. Pray, 'be seated," offering her a chair.

It was, at least, a rare .pleasure to be. so near her hi this confidential mood. The delicate, violet odor that permeated her rastdng garments was like a breath of spring, and the magnetism of her presence almost intoxicated him.

"And yet I can hardly refuse, tor, Heaven knows, I am in great trouble, and need a friend, if ever a young woman did.1* "Compose yourself, I beg; and begin, please." Charlie believed he was about to hear some news of more than ordinary importance. In imagination he could picture the remarkable young widow who created such a furore all over Europe. She might resemble Arline in many ways, but surely such a charmer of men could not possibly assume the air of innocence which thh> young woman carried with her. At the same time he felt impelled to relate the adventure he had experienced with the professor, and even mention that he had been solemnly warned by the baron. When she heard that Peterhoff believed her to be the celebrated adventuress; she hung her head. Charlie was overcome with confusion. "I have distressed you; and yet I beg you to believe I meant it all kindly. It was a silly ^hing for Peterhoff to do, but even the shrewdest of men of his stamp make absurd blunders sometimes. His last famous one cost Russia her Czar. Remember, I never for once took any stock in his ridiculous 4dea. It was all a mistake." Then the maid looked up. Her eyes were sparkling with real tears, but Charlie's haste to assure her of his positive belief in her innocence of the charge had brought a smile to her face. "It is dreadful, even to be taken for such a notorious woman, don't you think? But perhaps I should look at it reasonably, and believe the baron has made an excusable blunder. Really, some of the garcons here in the hotel have addressed me as countess, ana I have been puzzled to account for it until now, so we must look alike— I a demure little English lassie, and she a clever, designing Russian diplomat" Charlie nodded, eagerly. What she said seemed so very reasonable, and she took it mueh better than he expected. But he could easily discover that Arline was not wholly at her ease. Frequently she cast quick glances in the direction of the door. This fact had come to his attention some time back; but Charlie did not find the least reason to suspect that the baron had aught to do with i t She seemed to hesitate, perhaps hardly knowing just how to begin her story. "Allow me to remark. In the beginning," said Charlie, "that while I am ready and anxious to serve yon, and stand ready to do all that may become a man—if there is any reason why you should wish to keep these things secret, I will try to help you, even while groping in complete ignorance.** "Oh, no," she answered quickly; "it is not that You are entitled to the fullest confidence. I was only endeavoring to collect my thoughts so that I might know just how to begin. And, besides, I have a natural feeling of shame, because the person who has, I sadly fear, been plotting in secret against me, is one who should be my best friend upon earth-—my rather?" Young though she was, this beautiful girl had known what It was to sup with poverty, to be left alone and friendless in the world and to meet with the most unexpected and glorious fortune. Her story, even when briefly told, was a series of dramatic surprises, such as are well fitted for the stage, yet dence threw the forlorn young girl under the high-stepping carriage horses Of the dowager Lady Wallia, and sbe later on discovered that this lovelycreature was her own flesh and blood, a sudden love for the girl sprang up In her withered old heart which resulted in her adopting this niece as her sole heiress. Two years later Arline was bereft o{ her eccentric, but kind relative, and . found herself once more alone in the world, this time possessed of a most bountiful fortune. — Then It was, with the abruptness of a cannon shot, Captain Brand ap- 1 peared upon the scene. He bad a thrilling story to tell of his vessel's foundering in a gale off the African coast, his narrow escape from drowning, of being cast ashore, found by wandering Arabs, taken into captivity, sold some years later to a tribe of the Great Sahara, so that he finally drifted to Dahomey where, through the assistance of the faithful woman he had been forced-to marry, he eventually made a bold and successful escape, though his companion gave up her life in throwing herself in front of a spear that was meant for him. Arline accepted it all as gospel truth, and would have at the time believed even a much more miraculous series of adventures could such have been by any means invented by this modern Munchausen. This was before she knew Captain Brand so well. She spent money with a liberal band. He was enabled to indulge his love for fine clothes to its full bent He smoked the finest cigars, drank the most expensive liquors, and she feared he frequently Indulged in gaming. Thus a year went by. Captain Brand had ceased to beg for rroney. He demanded it as his right, and in sums so large that Arline was growing alarmed. He had tried to influence her to make her will leaving all her wealth to him; something might happen to her, though Heaven forbid, and she would not like to think of the great property going to strangers while her poor papa was left unprovided for. Arline refused to do as he requested, something within warning her against it. She barely mentioned her' earlter years, save to tell bow her father, a sea captain,, bad been lost as it waa "What other reason conW hritaene* believed, at sea; and with her mother you?" she asked, <a ilttle eagerty. she had fought the grim wolf in Lon- "The natnral des*r#< to meet TOT don, sewing, as such people of refine* again.

Even then she had not realized what this might portend. How should an innocent trusting young girl desirous of bestowing all reasonable benefits upon the man she had come to believe was her father—how should she suspect that thte ungrateful man could conspire with unprincipled confederates to actually take her life, yet by such means as would make it seem a cruel accident? While iu Antwerp he had professed a keen desire to visit the dungeons of the Steen, and yet always made it appear as though she were the one most interested in the abode of ghostly .memories. An expedition was accordingly planned. Arline never could tell just how it came about She remembered Captain Brand's enthusiasm in leading her deeper into the recesses, and how he suddenly disappeared while she was examining some object of interest; how she waited for him to reappear, until, growing alarmed by the diminishing size of her candle, she had endeavored to find-her way back to the ^arty; how she tripped and fell, losing her light Then she cried out in terror as the awfnl darkness closed around her, but no answer came. Then she realised that the others had gone; that this cruel-hearted man she called father, had deserted her, pretending to believe, ad doubt that she had gone above with a portion of the party upon whom the horrors of the dungeon soon palled. He could also take ft for granted she had gone away with her new-found •Herds, and not show any alarm for hours. It was a cleverly concocted and diabolical scheme, which had for its ultimate outcome the dethronement of her reason. Doubtless Captain Brand had arranged it so that in such a case he would bo appointed the natural pro, tector and guardian of his afflicted child, and thus, of course, have the handling of her fortune. Charlie was aghast He. had never heard so terrible a thing In all hit life. He almost doubted hia ' "r have made «p my mimr regarding one tblng.

A newly married couple were on their way from Autwerp to Paris when one of their fellow passengers cut his throat with n razor in the railway carriage in which they were traveling. Another shock awaited them in Paris. A visitor in the hotel in which they were staying was killed in the lift In their presence. On Sunday they called on a friend living in Paris who had invited them to lunch at his house. When-extending the invitation the friend observed, laughing, "You will not find any corpses with me." But when they arrived at the house their host greeted them with a request to have the lunch put off, as bis servant had died that morning in a bathtub from heart disease. This was too much for the bride, who fainted and then went Into hysterics. The couple subsequently took the first train back to Antwerp.—London Globe. The Byes of a Bee. Every bee has two kinds of eyes— the two larii'e compound ones, looking like hemispheres' on either side, and the throe simple ones which crown the top of his hoacl. Each compound eye is composed of 3,500 facets—that Is to say, an object is reflected 3,500 times on its surface. Every one of these facets is the base of an inverted hexagonal pyramid, whose apex is fitted to the head. Each pyramid may be termed an eye, for each has its own iris and optic nerve. How these insects manage this marvelous number of eyes is not yet known. They are immovable, but mobility is unnecessary because of the ran^e of vision afforded by the position and the number of facets. They have no lids, but are protected from dust and injury by rows of hairs growing %\ong the lines at the junctions of the facets. The simple eyes are supposed to have been given the bee to enable it to see above its head when intent upon gathering honey from the cups of flowers. Probably this may be one reason, but it 1s likely there are other uses for them not yet ascertained.— Pearson's Weekly. F a n t a s t i c B o t t l e s .

T h e W e a r i n g : o f A m u l e t s . Who wore the first amulet it would be impossible to say, but the adoption of a talisman to ward off evil is of very ancient origin. Phylacteries, the Greek word for amulets, were worn by the Israelites, to which allusion is made in the Scriptures. These phylacteries were narrow strips of parchment on which were written passages from the Old Testament. A strip was placed in a small leather box and bound to the left elbow by a narrow strap. There was a smaller phylactery for the forehead, the box for which was about an inch square. The word amulet is of Arabic origin and implies a thing suspended. Amulets were of various kinds.

There have been many literary tea topers, but William Hatittt, the write! and critic, probaWy' surpassed every ^•hor mithpr in the singularity and strength of bis potations. Rising usually at I or 2 o'clock in the day, he would sit over his breakfast of exceedingly strong blade tea and a toast ed French roll—if he had no work on hand—for hours, silent, motionless and self absorbed as a Turk. It was the only stimulant or luxury he ever took, and he was very fas tidlous about its quality, using always the most expensive kind and consum ing, when he lived alone, about a pound a week. l i e always made the tea himself, half filling the teapot with tea, pouring bolting water on it and then almost immediately pouring it out and mingling with it a great quantity of sugar and cream. Such a beverage must have been de Ucious. Indeed, Douglas Jerrold says, "there was fascination in it," but as a daily stimulant it must have been most deleterious, and as the essayist died after several severe attacks from a disease of the digestive organs it probably caused his death.—Beverages.

Before Maine had prohibition, there were only five savings banks in the state with a deposit $90,000; now there are 57 savings banks, 27 trust companies and 22 building and loan asssociations, with a capital of $113,000,00.

Pierpont Morgan is said to want German potash mines. If he wants them very much he will probably get them. Carnegie has gone to Europe. Towns not yet large enough for libraries will be given three months in which to grow. Tobacco ehewers will be glad of the cheering news that growers are now using paris green on the plants to kill the worms. A Kentucky- court has just acquitted a man who was charged with the murder of Goebel. Score another broken record for Kentucky. Russell Sage says labor and capital were never so near together as now. Russell ought to know. He's an expert on "nearness." Lord Salisbury will not have a stenographer or a typewriter in his temploy. It is easy to see who does the dictating in that family. A bunco steerer who once had a fortune of $700,000 died in a poorhouse the other day. At some time in his life he.must have tackled the wrong farmer. England Is not well pleased with the plan of the proposed ship merger. It is a peculiarity of Mr. Morgan's deals that they are rarely satisfactory to both sides. Why shouldn't New Jersey put up with her famous mosquitoes, instead •f appropriating $10,000 to drive them out? The mosquito was incorporated in New Jersey. SUfbtlr K e r v o w . ' Everything was in readiness. The groom, beat man and the minister were gathered in the vestry. The organist began to play and the minister started for the door. "Wait one moment, doctor," called the nervous groom. Is it the right or left hand the ring goes on?" "The left," hurriedly replied the minister. "And doctor, is—is it kisstermary to cuss the bride?

"Well," answered the man who has a hollow where the bump of veneration ought to be, "he has my approval. He knows what's business.

The child of strict parents, whose greatest joy had hitherto been the weekly prayer meeting, was taken to the circus by his nurse.

New York is going to expend $1,- 500,000 for churches during the coming year—almost as much as the average magnate is willing to lay out on his summer cottage.

About 400,000 larks are sent yearly from the continent to the London markets. London seems to be getting «p—or down—to the old Roman level ta point of gormandizing. A Milwaukee man is said to have crossed tho ocean in a trance. The Cream City has plenty of material for fte building of trances, but it is unasual for them to last a week. Genuine Grler. "Poor man!

Atom—The only trade I can make is with Thankersley. He offers to give me two or three dozen Belgian hares for them. The Belgian rioters faced the rifles and revolvers of the militia and police, but dodged King Leopold's automobile. Some things are too dangerous for even desperate men to fool with. The famous opera stars have sailed for home, rt is reasonably certain that they take with them enough pocket money to enable them to make both ends meet during the summer vacation. A leading Philadelphia society woman says: "The women who make up Philadelphia society know nothing of swearing/' This speaks well for the habits of the men of Philadelphia when tlrey are at home.

This is the great remedy for rota mildews and all fungous diseases and It is prepared as follows: Copper sulphate (blue stone), € pounds; fresh lime, 4 to 6 pounds; water, 50 gallons. Put the copper sulphate in a coarse sack and suspend it in some water till it is all dissolved and dilute to twentyfive gallons, b8e either a wooden or an earthen vessel. Then stake the lime and dilute to twenty-five gallons, and at the same time stir with a paddie. An important point is to use enough lime, as it prevents the burning of the foliage. To determine if enough lime has been used in preparing the mixture add a few drops of a solution of ferro-cyanide of potassium. If the ferro-cyanide of potassium does not change, no more lime Is needed, but if it changes to a dark reddish color, more lime muBt be added and the test repeated.—Fabian Garcia.

A report from Indiana says that oi the total number of men registered ..his year in the agricultural college of that state not more than IS per cent are willing or care to accept salaried positions. The remainder are prepar mg for work on their own farms. There is demand for men trained along agricultural lines, and it cannot now be supplied. Contrary to the general impression a very large proportion of the students in our agricultural colleges go back to the farms waen the> nave completed their courses, Th»* Ohio Agricultural College about a year ago undertook to find but how many of the agricultural students leaving the college went back to the farm. The proportion was found to be very large. A considerable number of agricultural students naturally drop into the work of teaching. For this opportunities are constantly opening, ihe young man that becomes thoroughly imbued with enthusiasm con cerning agriculture gravitates back to the farm, and it takes very high wages to hold him in any other position.

To assist nature, when nature needs assistance, it is all important that tho medicinal agents used should be of the be3t quality and of know^ value, and the one remedy which acts most beneficially and pleasantly, as a laxative, is—Syrup of Figs—manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. "With a proper understanding of the fact that many physical ills are of a transient char ttcter and yield promptly to the gentle action of Syrup of Figs, gladness and comfort come to the heart, aud if one would remove the torpor and strain and congestion attendant upon a eon* Btipated condition of the system, take Cyrup of Figs and enjoy freedom frcm the aches and pains, the colds and headaches and tic depression duo to inactivity of the bowels.

That Is to say, its Inventor died in 1894 at the ago of eighty. There were horns before Adolphe 8a T, to hp sure, hnt I such horns as we have now, for they could not play every tune in every key. They could not even play a scale in any key. The very first band entirely of brass was organised in 1835, and 1 doubt Xt any of the instruments then used could be played upon by modern musicians without special practice. It Is only back to 1783 when a full regimental baud of the British army con* sisted of two oboes, two clarinets, two horns and two Bassoons. It must have sounded even funnier than Tennyson's famous combination of 'flute, violin and bassoou;x - — •* "How long a way we have come since 1783 may be learned from the ensemble of a first class modern band. The modern band of forty-two pieces has half as many oboes and bassoons as the ancient band ef eight pieces, seven times as many clarinets and nine times as many horns, to say nothing of the saxaphones, which are part clarinet and part horn."

"Father'U be home soon, and hell make me take It." Odd Drinking Cups. When every man got drunk and was proud of it in olden days, much ingenuity was expended in the construction of queer and elaborate drinking vessels, and many such are yet to be "fouhd" in museums, especially in Qer« many. One preserved in a Berlin museum represents Diana mounted on a stag and surrounded by hounds and huntsmen. The cup consists of the hollow body of the silver stag, the head of which is removable. The piece stands fourteen inches high. It was.made at Augsburg in 1610. It is also an automobile propelled by clockwork concealed in the base. Trick cups which drenched the uninitiated were very popular.. Another variety contained wine and water in separate compartments. The drinker who did not know how to manage them filled his mouth with water, though the cup was apparently full of wine. The glass with the fighting hares, in the same museum, belonged to Friedrich Wilhclm I. The hares represent two of his ministers and boon companions.— New York Herald.

On one occasion the painter George Morlnnd. In, his eagerness to avoid bis duns, retired to an obscure hiding place in .Hackney, where bis anxious looks and secluded manner of life Induced some of his neighbors to believe him a forger of notes then in existence. Tbe directors, on being informed, dispatched some dexterous detectives to the residence, but Morland's suspicions were aroused by their movements in front of the house and, thinking them bailiffs, escaped from the back to London. Mrs. Mbrland Informed the visitors of her husband's name and showed them some unfinished pictures. The facts were reported to the directors, who presented Morland with two twenty pound notes by way of compensation for the alarm. Like a drowning man. "Fiye years ago a disease the doctors called dyspepsia took such hold of me I could scarcely go'1 writes Geo. S. Marsh, well-known attorney of Nocona< Tex.

JAMES A, GREENE. Unique Tablecloth. When a southeast wind is blowing, the visitor to Cape Town is treated to a peculiar and interesting natural phenomenon, for under such conditions Table mountain, in the language of the natives, "puts on a tablecloth." In other words, the thin line of fleecy cloud forming above it descends until it rests flat upon the mountain top, with its edges drooping gracefully over its sides. It is really not unlike the article of household use which gives it its name. A Bfeaanre of Time. The Pupil—It seemed to me I must have practiced all of two hours.

As such 1 have been sometimes known.0 Charlie cringed somehow, at this. It seemed to raise a wall between them—wealth and title. What few ordinary young Englishmen dare aspire to win a bride from behind such ramparts? Never before had Charlie Stuart) wished for fame and fortune as now; nothing could be too grand to lay at the feet of snch a royal princess. And while he was thus battling with ills thought*, she suddenly caught his arm. "He is out yonder! I heard his laugh t Now, come to the door, Mr. fltuart, And take your flrst look at Captain Brand of the Heepaeia. before you meet him face to face." Nothing loth Charlie followed her to the door, Iwhence they could look into the oflt* tit the hotel. Several men were in sight; but almost instinctively his gase settled flpom one who seemed to command genenat attention: and.no sooner had CharHa clapped nl* eyes on this re? markabSe ladfvfdnai than he ottered a little ejaculation of surprise and pleasure. '. ,. , . Possibly he had seen this same *> Quadous Captain Brand of she Hespatla nadir otbsr and more excJtffit cir: nimataneea of. creating a good impression on bis daughter's old friend, whom he wished to study at close range. When he set out to entertain, Captain Brand of the Hespasla was a howling success, relating the most astonishing incidents connected with his long captivity in the desert, his perils on the sea, and the deep fountain of love for wife and child that had sustained him through all his trials. Charlie was- no mean actor himself, thanks to the splendid control which he was able to exercise over his facial muscles/ Although he now had not the least doubt as to the fellow being a fraud of the flrst water, Charlie felt that he owed it to Arline's respect for filial affection to prove this fact. This was the task he cut out for himself. He laid his little trap. Captain Brand was so mnch engaged with his flow of oratory and the charming of this friend of the family that he did not notice the pit so deftly dug. ThuB, almost without an effort, Charlie had him admit that he knew considerable about Valparaiso, in Chill, and had been there, in the course of his wanderings, many years ago. In Charlie's mind this settled the matter. He was confident be knew with whom he had to deal, and when the time came he would be ready to dare all In defying the adventurer. While they sat thus, speaking of the sights of Antwerp, there came a messenger from the hotel office inquiring for Mr. Charlie Stuart, whom a gentleman outside desired to see. As he went, directed by the clerk, to the spot where he would find the gentleman who had asked for aa immediate interview on serious business, he was making up bis mind to tell Peterhoff the whole story and enlist his favorable consideration for Ariine, so that when the denoument came the doughty captain could be taken care of. Judge of his- surprise, then, when, Upon coming upon the party who Wished to see him, he found it was no other than Artemus Barnaby, with his honest face clouded with an air of the datfceat mystery. St did not require much prophetic skill on Charlie's part to tell that his erratic friend had news of some importance for him. He pressed a forefinger on his lips te Indicate dead silence, when he found tfcat Charlie had recognised him. Charlie stood there waiting while tne other crept on his tiptoes to the In the regular orthodox stage and looked this way and that to asenre himself that there could be no eavesdroppers near. Then he approached his friend, hia warning anger still on his lips. Reaching the other, he placed his line close to Charlie's ear, and solemnly said: "The coast is clear!" "I see it la," said.

"But at that time he swears he was In the heart of Africa, a prisoner at Dahomey." "Well—he lies," coolly. Charlie liked that. It was so fresh and original, at the same time so very emphatic. "Who was he when you knew him?" he asked, determined to get down to the facts now. "A fourth-rate actor, on his uppers half of the time. One of these howling barnstormers, a heavy villain of the piece, at home in 'Uncle Tom's Cabin' or 'Ten Nights in a Barroom.' He was the joke of the season on the Rlalto, in Gotham. I even thought seriously of utilizing him In my great play as the seedy actor who carrie3 the mysterious secret with him through five acts, but when he found there was a chance of him being immortalized, his price for sittings went away up. and I discovered something better than Hamfatter." "Good Heavens! was that his name?" "Certainly not That's what they call all heavy tragedians of the barnstorming variety. Let me see," placing a finger alongside "his nose, a ia Irving, "now I have it—bend your head lower, for that fellow has keen ears-^-it was Frederick Davenport Macauley." "Indeed! Very suggestive, considering his occupation in life. What a man he is, to be sure; capable of having so many names, and filling such various stations In life. Why, when 1 knew him, four or five years ago, he was called Captain Nathaniel Kedge." "What! you knew him, then?" "I saw him—that Is, I am almost dead certain it is the same man; and I expect to prove it presently." "Where was this?" "In South America." "In Valparaiso?" "Come, what makes you ask that?" In surprise. "I remember him talking of being, concerned In a little war scare that occurred down there—he has always been the same boaster, you know." MWell, that seems to prove the identity. I never in all my life heard of so stupendous a rascal." "Say what was he doing down in Santiago, or was it Valparaiso?" "The latter, on the coast, the most enterprising city along the Pacific, south of San Francisco. What was he doing?

The village mentioned was situated on a level stretch of ground ; casional explosion, enough to around t h e . main cavity. These were all connected by wire which led to the bottom of the hill where, when t h e time came, an electric battery could be taken and atJbhe pressing of the button all the dynamite would be exploded at once. Several small charges of dynimite were place*! among the old refuse so that as the fire reached it there would be an ooeven talked o| seeking a .place of safety.

J. at the foot of a range of hills which were from fifty to one hundred feet above t h e level of the village and worthless only for p a s t u i e or t h e growth of a <ew scrab oaks which grew on the sides of the hills. One hill, bigger and more worthless thau the rest, stood a full half mile back keep people from getting too close to the top of the hill. I t required about a week to get all arrangements made and had cost the boys considerable money and hard work buj; t h e anticipated sensation- fully repaid them for their effort. When everything was in re&difrom the village b u t ft» 4>arrenypess-as-luck-^wou head could be seen from almost every street. This hill was called "Boise Hill" owing to the o w n e r ^ name being Boise, and the sum mit of the hill was seldom visited as it was entirely worthless and very difficult to climb. A small river ran through the village and furnished power for several small factories. The population of the place was between 2,500 and 3,000 including the students in the seminary of which the village boasted. The school at the time I am writing of, was very popular, especially among a class of well to do young men who were glad to avail themselves of the opportunity to get away from home and enjoy school life among strangers. Like most college and seminary students they were u p to their pranks occasionally, but usually confined their tricks to changing signs, putting wagons on top of buildings and things that caused annoyance rather than damage. When papers began to chronicle, the awakening of different volcanoes and shocks of earthquakes in different parts of the country, some of the more venturesome of the students proposed that they get up a sensation for the village and cause "Old Boise" as the big hill was called for short, to smoke and shake. The boys accepted the suggestion with a zest and began at once to plan for a b i ^ sensation. As everthing had to be done on the quiet they laid their plans in the day time and carried them out at night. Their first work was to go to the top of the hill, and for three nights they were busy diging holes four or five feet in diameter and eight or ten feet deep, placing the earth taken out on t h e aide from the town so it could not be seen. F r o m another town a few miles distant they engaged the services of a couple of friends of the boy8 to haul old waste, saw dust etc, which they carried u p after dark and filled the holes. The same men then drew in sever* Memorial Day. a } barrels of crude petroleum and For above occasion, Pere Marquette o t h e r x h e a p oils_Jwhich—the boya wind "was in the right quarter to blow the smoke into the town and _as this-Ja?as~ j u s t w h a t the boys desired they proceeded'to set fire to the oil-saturated waste through a cavity they had left for the purpose. The fire was started d u r i n g the small h o u r s of the morning and when the villagers awoke there was s smell of sulphur aud a black cloud of smoke was seen to be coming from the top of "Old Boise" and as there was nothing that grew there that would burn all wondered what it could be. I t was but a few moments before everyone in the village was out watching the old hill and people began to think of and mention the articles in the papers about so many volcanoes being in operation. Some of the college studeuts volunteered to climb the hill and investigate but the citizens would not allow them to make the attempt. About that time a charge of powder aud dynamite exploded with a tariffic roar and a pile of sand, gravel and debris was thrown several feet into t h e air. This was followed in a few moments by another aud th e smoke and sulphur fumes became more and more dense and the peop! e began to be alarmed.

It seemed as if the old hill had taken on some of the enthusiasm of the students for it began to belch forth more smoke and fire than before and when it was doing its best suddenly the air resounded with a deadened boom which made earthen ware rattle as from a heavy clap of thunder. The sound vihrated and re-vibrateoTuntil it seemed as it' the entire range of hills had been rent. The fire from the cavity of the old hill mixed with hundreds of small stones and gravel was thrown 40 or 50 feet into the air and came down with a crash and mass of dust. Save for the mass of smoke that hung about the hill, everything was quiet. While many in the village* we re much frightened by the explosion it was over so sudden and they were none of them hurt, that but few left the town. However about 300 sought a place of safety some going to the depot and tak • ing the midnight train out while others drove or walked to the next town. There was but little sleep in the village that night as the hill continued to smoke until sometime during the next day, when all was quiet. It was more than a week however before many visited the "crater" and when they did they found a hole about 50 feet across and 25 feet deep. The destruction ot the material used was so complete as to leave no trace of the cause of the eruption of the hill and for months it was considered as one of the wonders of the time.

The correspondent can get & small treatise on the, subject for the asking, by writing the secretary of agriculture, Washington, D. G, for a copy of Farmers' Bulletin No. 82, Silos and Silage. If he wishes to study the subject more in detail, there is Professor King's Physic* of Agriculture (tL75); which gives up considerable space to the construction of silos, and -**A Book on Silage," by the writer ($1.00), both of which boohs may be ordered through the Farmers' Review, Chicago, 111. In the latter book complete specifications for a 300-ton round wooden silo and for a 100-ton stave silo are given, with elevations «nd framing plana, sections, etc, froin which siloe can be readily constructed by anyone at all familiar with bulldihg operations. As the correspondent apparently has not had previous experience wi|b silos the best plan would be for him to build a small tank silo of beveled lumber saeh as Is usedin making water tanks. Then another season when he has gotten some experience with silage and has found out that he cannot do without it, he will very likely wdnt to build a larger silo and can-then put up a more substantial all-wood structure that will not require the attention that stave silos at best require. As to making silage from green pea straw, will say that I have not had any pergonal experience with this material as a silage crop, but can see no reason why it will not make good silage if properly packed in a moderr silo, and if it is not allowed to dr: out too much before being placed in the silo. The best way is to run it through, a feed cutter and cut into inch lengths; wetting the top with about two gallons of water per square foot of surface is to be recommended if the pea vines are not pretty green as they go into the silo.—F.

Henry, in his book on "Feeds and Feeding," says: "By soiling" is/meant supplying forage fresh from the fields to farm stock more or less confined. The first American writer to bring this subject to the attention of our people was Joslah Quiney, whose essays in )820 were later gathered into a book entitled the "Soiling of Cattle," now out'of print Quiney points out six distinct advantages from ^oiling: First, the saving of land; second, the saving of fencing; third, the economizing of food; fourth, the better condition and greater comfort, of the cattle; fifth, the greater r>roduct: of milk; sixth, the attainment of ma* i nure, According to this author, there are six ways in which farm animals destroy the articles destined for their food. First, by eating; second, by walking; third, by dunging; fourth, by staling; fifth, by lying down; sixth, by breathing on it Of these six, the first one only Is useful; all the others are wasteful. Quiney reports his own experience where twenty cows, kept in stalls, were fed green food supplied six times a day. They were allowed exercise in the open yard. These twenty cows subsisted on the green crops from seventeen acres of land, where fifty acres had previously been required. Washington county, railroad.

About 151) years ago Phillppl of Turin announced that a living organism forms the nu cleus, and in a recent investigation M. Ralph Duvois, a French naturalist has shown that all pearls found In a common pearl-bearing molluak are cysts inclosing dlstomes—small marine worms. In the month of August, when few pearh ate obtained, the tiny young dlstomes, a fiftieth of an inch in diameter, are to be ueen instead as reddish yellow points. These become gradually coated with carbonate of lime, in an early stage appearing as black specks and later as brilliant pearls, which remain until the following summer, when they drop to pieces, and the parasite resumes activity and reproduces its kind. But if the parasite dies the crust continues to grow, a large and beautiful pearl being but the sarcophagus of a longdead worm. Hngar Is believed to be from the Hebrew and menus the Stranger.

Every member of this fine company is thoroughly familiar with the military drills of every nation, and could fall into the ranks and fill all tbe re* quirements of a Well-drilled an* 'disciplined soldier of any land. When the company was stationed at Chattanooga during the Spanish- American war. it gained the wellearned reputation of being the bestdrilled company of all the 70 000 troops in camp. Since then the company has taken up the drills of other nations, both ancient and modern, and has become marvelously expert. All the various drills of the company are held in the uniforms of the soldiers of the country which the troops are supposed to represent, and to make these costumes historically correct the company has expended over 13.000. Lieut. C, Josten is the originator of the scheme, and he deserves great credit for the ad.nirable manner in which he has discip.incd the men. Each military number is preceded by a busier and a standard bearer, carrying the flag or standard of the nation represented and blowing the bugle call of the different nations as they fall in line. The costumes—they can hardly be called uniforms—of many are rich silk and satin handsomely embroidered.—The Strand. Mrs. Anna Martin, 47 Hoyt struct, JJrooklyn, N* Y„ writes?

But their meeting had not been un- ODservefl. The ubiquitous baron had his eye on them, and .possibly figured out some wonderful game as connected with his mysterious .conversation. Charlie went back to Ariine and Capt. Brand, and the three chatted for a while. Then ^fline graciously consented to play several favorite pieces, while Charlie idly glanced through a book made np of fugitive songs and music. £t was while < doing this he suddenly came upon an opportunity to make anather test of the man's identity. So Charlie handed the well-worn book of ttuxalc ft) the lair girl. "'Play that ior me—an old favorite— always jgEMrfcres j>leasant recollections."

Of waa the Russian bear, still on guard? Couln the hotel he aurro^ded by his emi*saries, ready to entrap the wonderful adventuress? Having decided to, ejnoke a weed and take a look around ere retiring to bis bunk, Charlie lighted up and sauntered toward the open foor leading to the street '' \ .: . When he etepped^out of the hotel >or, he waa astonished, to discover little knots of men, dre&sed in the welt-known uniform of the Antwerp gendarmes, standing near the Hotel de laPaix. Then it burst upon him that be had not placed enough significance upon what the baron had confided to him.

And the cause was one in which he -could stand considerable knocking about with complacency. Tie watched the hotel door. The baron would be sorry on account of his blunder. Naturally, he would want to make amends, and Charlie had already concluded to enlist his valuable services in the work of unmasking Captain Brand. - If anybody could accomplish this • 3 * " « ' i a -» • • • : ' « • < i<f. *-*• U<»i»«V* ;i*f* "V fa t^* ^ L w :-+:^ : ' " ' ; • " * • * : • ' specific crime save that of enslaving men.of rank, and compelling them, through-' her witchery, to contribute from their wealth toward her regal support.

A number of sombre closed vehicles came dashing down the gassen. They drew up before the hotel. A few loungers gathered in the doorshake a greater part of Europe with a mighty convulsion,; since the conspiracy in Which the Countess Isolde wag connected concerned more than one imperial throne. Charlie forgot that he had been sleepy. > . His eyes were never brighter than n o w . • ' ' •. 1 - • -.i - • It seemed' that the countess had tinally made a stupendous blunder, and Peterhoff's hour of triumph was at hand. - It would mark an epoch in the1 lives of many prominent men in Europe when Isolde Brabant vanished behind the walls of a military fortress Some who had been in the toils would breathe easy for the first time in many moons', and drink a bumper to her long residence in her new and exclusive palette.'• - , , So Charlie watched and waited, deep in reflection. When his cigar was* about half consumed, he thought he would saunter down the street a short distance, to see what effect, if any, his appearance might have upon, the officers on guard. The result was really more than he had anticipated. He had not gone more than a dozen paces before, without the least warning, he felt a rough hand laid roughly upon his arm. As he turned to see what was wanted, a second hand gripped his other arm. A bended face looked into his own. "Messieurs, I am afraid you—-" he began. "Silenced "Have made a little mistake." "Silence on your life!" was hissed. He saw frowning pistols. It was evident that the officers meant business. Charlie began to grow a little indignant. "See here! send for the baron!" he insisted, "He is engaged." "Bat he is my friend—he will be angry wttk.you far-making so ridiculous a btandec.** "So. But we carry out his orders. Now, not a word more, mynherr." "Confound—" "Do yon hear? Not one word, on your life!" Charlie shrugged hla shoulders. Ah! a whistle!—evidently a signal. The game waa about to be called. Even as he stood there, held fast by his captors, he saw a man enter the door of the hostelry. It waa Peterhoff. Another and another followed, until Charlie had counted a round doaen. same' time there peared at the windows across the way, as though some spirit of intuition, passing' through space, gave warning tha£ strange events were occurring. Charlie's captors began to move along toward the hotel door, and of course, he was forced to accompanythem. • He waa still twenty paces away when the baron came out.bearing upon his- arm a lady with a sylphlike form, but who was heavily veiled. Charlie's traitor heart leaped at sight of her. The graceful carriage was so like that of Ariine, so queenly and perfect Yet he knew beyond peradventure that this was the eountess who had finally fallen into the toils of the fowler. Charlie was inclined to rush and seize upon his friend, the baron; but those two guards held his arms in a grip of steel. Attract the attention . of Peterhoff •he could not, since the other had eyes only for the woman at bis side, knowing his men were capable of executing the orders previously given. So he assisted her into a vehicle and swept one last glance around. Charlie cried out pther sounds there were in the street just then. At any rate, . the baron never vouchsafed a single look -in his quarter, but waved an arm, jumped into the vehicle and was gone. By this time the gendarmes were issuing from the hotel, each with a companion, most of the prisoners being gentlemen. As fast as the vehicles were filled with guards and captives they dashed away. Xharlie's turn came. He attempted a protest but was roughly shoved along and thrust into one of the closed vehicles, which presently lumbered down the street. And so the innocent suffered with the guilty. (To he continued.) Mrs. D. Arnold,/ President Woman's Glub, Grand Angeles^ Cak, Relieved erf -a«-:T^uaa^ Lydia E. Pinlcham's Ve *" ""'''' " D E A * MRS.

N o liquors may be sold in any theater or similar place of amusement, nor i n any railway station, nor any railway train, nor to minors, nor between midnight and siz in the morning/ The Chilean law, in order t o guard against the political influences of the saloon, forbids any public official whatsoever to hold or be in any way interested in any liquor license. I f a Chilean liquor dealer wants to hold public office, he must first change his occupation, or if a public official wants to become a liquor dealer he must quit h i s office. If our country had a law in force of that character, i t would mean a right wholesome revolution in our city councils. The Chilean new liquor law, moreover, recognizes fully t h e principle of local option. This extends not merely to oities but to city wards. The people of any section of a city may vote to create a prohibition district and absolutely exclude the saloon from t h e neighborhood of their homes. This is a great point gained, T h e right of local ward prohibition in our own cities U a point that should be vigorously pressed in our own country, whenever the larger and better prohibition does n o t obtain. Moreover—and the poiut ia not an unimportant one—offenses against the law are tried promptly and sumarily. No case, can b e continued more than ten days, and no judge may withhold h i s decision more than five days. While the provision* of this Chilean liquor legislators are strikingly thorough, it is in t h e very nature of the saloon business to evade law and resist restriction. We do not feel that the new Chilean law is Utopian in any seuse, but it is interesting to read a law which is evidently intended to b e enforced. This feature of it w e heartily commend.

Polite attention prevailed among those with in hearing.distance; farther away the hum of voices and shouts of unsuppreseed laughter arose on the air in unmistakable volume. This was sacrilege to the ears of Weak-Eyed Jones. To him BO eyent was more solemn than the present, and it seemed the same dignity and reverence he felt should, actuate the conduct of others. The air was suffocating. Early in Old W«ak-Eyed Jones sat on one of the backless benches in front of the speaker's stand. the day the heated atmosphere had become saturated with clouds of choking dust, which rolled into the city behln-1 hundreds of incoming farmers' conveyances. But Weak-Eyed Jones took it all with a generous degree of hu- » over him. having missed meeting with his soldier comrades on the thirtieth of May, he didn't propose to to-day. It might be the last time—probably it would— but he'd gc this once! The band up the. street struck up "The Star-Spangled Banner"—he was conscious of the column moving. He had stood still so long his legs were almost stiff and action made him stagger, but with the use of his cane he maintained his balance and managed to move along. Shouts of "Hurrah!" Hurrah!" greeted his ears from every side. Proudly he lifted his head and threw his shoulders back with unctious military dignity. The ovation continued with increased enthusiasm as they passed up the street. Someone tried to retaliate with a "Hurrah for the boys of *61!" but the voice was lost in the lusty tide of cheering for "The boys of '98!" Following the squad of solders came a bicycle brigade, men on horseback, and, lastly, wagon loads of tlower girls dressed in white—wagons for strong, healthy girls, while decrepit old veterans must go afoot. As the long line rounded a corner and passed from the boulevard into an east and west thoroughfare, Weak- Eyed Jones tottered. Bravely he pulled his remaining strength together and ambled on, his faltering footsteps unable to beat time to the rapid music. Many of his comrades, too. had lg£ng since forgotten how to march. And how, few they numbered now— these Veterans! ..-SU Mount Zlon cemetery was a beautiful spot—lifted above woods and sky just beyond where the lake nestled quietly between two hillsides—the valley, with its ribbon of a rivulet, winding Verdure-laden at its woody base, the azure heavens outlining its great white gates, Its" marble monuments, its flowering shrubbery, its trees of green, with rare exactness beyond. Weak-Eyed Jones raised his eyes to the hill yet in the distance. He could see but the outline of the hallowed spot rising against the lurid sky. His spirit was awed! The heavy march was telling on his weakened body, his stens were getting more and more uncertain. A momentary dizziness came AndVcould ifc^t fade?-; and yonder flonary Rldae where, proudly drawn STbattle % 5 £ -tie*^BnTe^rtte legions awaited them calmly with a - welcome of leaden deathT . — milky and uncomplaining; A young couple at his elbow indulged so busily in conversation he could not hear tho voice of ilMf'adjutant, yet he bore it ellentfyr— Even though hiB obscure tight, years before made almost U3C less by a lebel miuie ball, which carried away .*he bridge of his nose and grazed botn eyes, was powerless to penetrate the dust-heavy distance -be* tween him attd the speaker, net was secretly happy.' , • »; • <• His.meditations were cut shorj by a tudden commotlbin at1 his* eibdw\ People were hurrying from -their seats: the program inust be over. He was carried along with the rest, towards the speakers' stand, but he hadn't gotta far when he noticed some one trying to speak. Above the noise he just caught the last' phrase: "Will close with a, selection by the young ladies' quartette." . Then It wasn't over yet! There was to bejone more number! He tried to be seated, but a buxom country woman, jostled hard against him, nearly sending him off his rheumatic legs. Thenquartette commenced to sing, but their voices were drowned In the tumuli of cc^fusvon,* ,, . Presently a drum corps somewhere out in the streeY struck up "Marching Through • Georgia*'—the line commenced to form. Hurried along with the throng, WeakWfijredMJones.took up a marcbjn^poaftlon wjth others of Ms biue-coated comrades. The neat wasttUl more itfntng'h*^, as ther*tood "Hark!" Suddenly the music of the And whence all this rub-a-dub-dub, rub-a-dub-dub, that fired the very blood within the veins? Ah! Foolish question! Why ask when there was Soffels, the drummer hoy? Nobody hut Soffels could drum like that! Soffels was the only one who could make his drum "talk" In accents so elear and true—now gay, say as the morning, sunlight; now sad—sad as the hour of death, aa he turned the tide of battle Into victory or defeat! "Take the rifle-pita at the base, then halt and reform!" Weak-Eyed Jones heard the order as clear as on the day it fired the souls of thousands of Union soldiers to battle and to victory. The march of many feet was heard; the glint of polished bayonets seen. The stars and stripes stood straight to the breeze as like clockwork that human phalanx moved to obey. Was that the foe there, entrenched at the base of the hill, calmly waiting with muskets primed and ready? But Traversa—man did he see falter. Onward they pressed, with music sparing and flags flying, into the fray and into the face of death. Then, when the first volley had been met and passed. they were over the breastworks and upon the foe. He felt an absence about him then. He looked for Billy. Billy was gone! A bullet had carried him A>wn atthefirstonslaught,he5 concluded. Then he saw the men in the trenches waver for a moment, club their muskets for a last feeble stand. That was all; then they fled. The Federal troops, forgetting their orders in the enthusiasm of the moment, were as quickly over the. ramparts and after them—through woods, over logs", past gulches, and into the face of a mUrderous musketry from above! Presently Weak-Eyed reeled and fell from the marching column, striking his head as be fell. Grasping a shade tree by the side of the .thoroughfare he slowly raised himself to his knee3. Had he, too, been struck by a flying bullet? He put his hand to his head. Yes. there was blood! —and the bridge of his nose was gone! But he forgot the pain momentarily as he heard the order: "Charge the crest of the hill!" pass from mouth to mouth as it came from Grant His pulses leapt. His blood fairly bounded at the words. He tried to rise and obey, but he could neither see nor walk. "Hurrah fer th'—stars an'—stripes!" he shouted in the exultation of the moment, but the effort cost him throbs of pain. A vehicle fall of belated celebrat i o n i s , hurrying after the procession, heard his shout. "A drunken soldier," they said. Weak-Eyed thought an ammunition wagon was hurrying to the front. His sight cleared a little after the first daze from his fall. In the distance he saw clouds of dust arising. "The smoke of the battle," he thought. The music was still playing, clearer and louder than ever, indicating the enthusiasm of battle. Someone approached his side. "Only a—scrape—comrade!" he said. "Never—mind me—I'll be—all r i g h t - soon. There's work—fer you—up there!" He indicated the hill with a wave of his hand. "I tell you he's not drunk; he's sick." The man at his side addressed some one hear at hand. In pity they tried to raise him to his feet. Hi3 legs would not support PEACE! ry rang out on the air. ^rn^boys^'-he-added.

"A jolly old drunk, there!" the occupants remark ed, then bowled away up the streei and out of hearing. Another carriage swept past without a heed, a load o flower girls drew near. The drive was beckoned to halt, but his attention was centered upon his screaming laughing passengers. / The sun was now almost set Presently Weak-Eyed Jones fe«blv raised himself upon his emaciate elbows, peered with all the power h could muster through his almost sigh, less o;bs in the direction of the blood red sun and moved his lips to speak "Yes—they're waitin'—fer me, Bil ly.

The mineral zone covers a large section of hitherto unexplored country, and is about 175 miles from a railroad. There are five routes leading to the Thunder Mountain country, via.: via Ketchum, Mackay, Boise and Weiser, Idaho, and Redrock, Montana, all on the Oregon Short Line railway. A great rush to this mecca for miners is predicted, and "On to Thunder Mountain" will be as familiar as the old watchword, "Pike's Peak or Bust," as soon as the snows disappear so that the camp may be reached with supplies, which will probably be between May 15 and June 1. A scarcity ef provislona at present kftepg miners away, as flour at $50 per sack is considered somewhat of a luxury even in the golden land. Surrounding Thunder Mountain Is a large section of .country adapted to agriculture and stock-raising. D. E, Burtey, general passenger agent of the Oregon Short Line railroad, at Salt Lake City, sent an expert to report upon that country, and will cheerfully give any information required as to the routes and general conditions in and around the great mining camp. Color Affeclt l'«w* There are conditions in which colo. materially affects the formation of dew, as may be shown by a simple experiment. Place three pieces of board —one white, another green and another black—so that they may have the sun on them all day, and then leave them exposed to the air all night. If all the conditions are normal it will be found In the morning that there Is a good deal of dew on the white board, much less on the green board, and still less on the black board; Indeed, there may be none at all on the latter. The difference is due to the fact that the three boards absorb the sun's rays unequally, and are, therefore, of different temperatures at the close of the day. The black board absorbs the most heat, the the white board the least They all begin to lose their heat as soon as the sun's rays leave them, the white board cooling firut, the green board nest and the black board last. As soon as they become cool enough to condense the watery vapor of the air in eor.tact with them, dew will begin to form on them, and the most dew will form on the one thac cools first It may be that the black board will absorb more heat during the day than it can throw off at night; if so, no dew will form on i t Burning Tlro't. Star City, Ark., May 23th.—A very remarkable case has just occurred here. Mr. W. H. McFalls has been suffering severely for two years with an ailment that puzzled the doctors and everybody. The trouble seemed to be all in his head, which had a burning sensation all the time. Stmetimes this burning pain in the head would be worse than at other times, but it never left him. At last he tried a new remedy called Dcdd's Kidney Pills and was agreeably surprised to find that the burning gradually disappeared. An attack of La Grippe baa laid him up for the last few weeks, but Dodd's Kidney Pill3 have banished his old trouble entirely. His sen George used a few of the Pills which his father did not need and they have done him so much good that ho says ho would net take ten cents a pill for the few he still has left Th»v rrcoclifr who talks nbrwt firing over the IKNUIS of his people hud better lotirn that his business Is feeding as \v«U as liriuff. "Under the Turquoise Sky.** nnd "Camping in Colorado" are the titles of two most, beautifully printed snd Illustrated pamphlets, descriptive of Colorado scenery and camping, published by the Chicago, Rock.

The sHadow s w a y e d from side to side. PERRY had been at bis.desk since 8 o'clock, but be hml^otaccomplished much. At midnight lit' was engaged In draw In j: clrch^ Dn a sheet of paper. Ho covered tlio sheet and two others, and the absurd occupation seemed to take an Increasing hold upon his attention. At the last his eyes were wide open and staring, and the palms of his hands were wet with perspiration. His head hun« forward, and he licked his lips as one does who Is sick with fear. An observer might have said that these circles w^re spells of the blackest magic and that Perry had succeeded In raising the arch fiend. Presently he got upon his feet, as if animated by a sudden resolution, and assumed n ratrltaTy attitude; with™hl*" back to the chair in which he had been sitting. The light from" the cluster of electric bulbs hanging over the desk was thrown strongly down upon it by a reflector, but enough escaped to east a giant shadow of Perry upon the wall. The shadow sWayed from side to side. The unfortunate man opened his eyes, and perhaps he caught a glimpse of the moving silhouette, for the breath came out of him in a pitiful cry, and he pressed a hand upon his forehead that was wet with visible drops of cold sweat. "It can't be true," he said and then laughed nervously. "Talking to myself! That's another symptom." He stretched out his hand toward the desk. There was a numbness in his fingers, and queer little pains ran I up and down his forearm. He picked up a bundle of proof sheets and glanced hastily over the printed lines. "It certainly is a coincidence," he, said, "that I should have written this story. I was not conscious of portray-1 ltig myself when I drew the character of Ifinghnm, but everybody will think so after the book's out, and I'm—done for." He swallowed a mout'iful of air1 at these last words. "In a liiirry to got ; rich was Langha.m. lie hud too many irons in the tire. He thought all the time, even when he was ;i-!eep.

The ; money bet won and the braius are lost, i I'm done for!" j He paced the floor with uneven \ strides. There was a band of pain about his head just above _ „„„.'., ,,,,..,,^ his eyes, and the fingers of F . v ; | ^ , : ^ his right hand twitched with little nervous throbs that extended to the elbow. Suddenly the tears sprang into his eyes. His lids were wet in a flash, and he was ashamed. "I must take this thing , as a man should," he said. [rr?zf/^~-* "She shan't know, nor any one else. Thank heaven that it has come upon me now, when I can bear it alone! It won't be noticed In me right away. It's slow, but sure. Don't I know the symptoms? Didn't 1 stuff myself full of them while I was writing that cursed story? All right ! cept myself. I'm d e a d - broke." "Money Is a small matter, a trifle,** -replied Perry. "A man may be poor one day and rich the ures which, once lost, ate never regained." "If you have such a '•M contempt for money," " A l o n e , said Hammond, "you J a c k ?

Have you got stuck In your story?" Perry made an impatient gesture and continued to pace the tloor. "I suppose this Is the new writing ta* ble that Ethel-Bertram gave you." said the visitor. "And that's the hanging lamp that used to be in the library at her house. You must be very solid with the family, or they wouldn't let her rob them for you. When were these thinjr* w * in here?" "Yesterday!" groaned Perry. "Well, they'll come in handy for housekeeping when you quit these bachelor quarters. Let me see. When is the wedding?" "Never." Hammond, who had been examining the chair that had been a part of Miss Bertram's gift, slowly straightened up and looked at his friend. "In the name of heaven," he cried, young man. "Go way," said the barber. "You don't mean I t " "I mean Just that, but you needn't tell anybody. I shouldn't have mentioned It."

"you don't moan to tell me"— "I didn't mean to tell you anything," replied Perry, "hut there's no way out of it now. Swear that you won't whisper it to a human creature. Frank, I've worked myself to death. I have offered up my nervous system on the altar of Mammon. Here! Look at these circles I have drawn. See how the lines are wavy and uncertain, as if a drunken man had made them. That's paralysis, general paralysis of the insane— paresis, as it's now commonly called." "You're wild!" exclaimed Hammond. "Why, J o h n n y , y o u a r e the healthiest fellow I know! There's nothing the matter with you except that you sit up till 4 o'clock jn the morning writing your confounded stories. As for these circles, nobody can . draw them except artists." Standing by the table, he took a pencil and rapidly traced circles on a pad. They were not very good ones, but they hadn't the wavy outline. It was impossible not to see the radical difference. "I triod to stand steady with my eyes shut and couldn't do it." continued Perry In a husky voice. "That's a sure sign." Hammond hastily closed his eyes, but he stood up like a tree. haveu't got it, that's sure," he "Have you seen a doctor?" Perry smiled wearily. "I don't need to," he replied. "I've been studying the subject for weeks. Character in a book, you see. Queer coincidence, isn't it? Hello! There's some one rapping at your door." Hammond looked out into the hall. "Some of the boys have come around to play cards," he said. "I suppose you won't join us. You never touch a card. It's all work and no play with you. (iood night and cheer up, old chap. This tiling may not be as bad as you think." It is utterly hopeless," responded Perry. "I've looked up all the authorities. Mind! Not a word about this. 1 shall tell no one." Hammond made a gesture that pledged his soul and body, but about 3 o'clock in the morning, under the influence of a beverage that is known as a club cooler, he confided to the other follows that Perry was a wreck. "It'sa dreadful thing," he said. He was a brilliant man. He made ness was a cheerful, emotional youug man uainod Joe Lynwood. He was an expert In all matter relating to the stock market, and it was really due to him that the modest enterprise had thriven so well. But Lynwood never would have said so. He had an Infinite admiration and affection for Perry and believed that every word he said was directly inspired. "Joe.", said Perry aa soon lis he entered the otlico. "what is my share of the business worth? 1 want to sell out." Lynwood was speechless. Wonder lad grief held him helpless. "You're crazy!" he gasped at last. Perry glanced over his shoulder nervously. "How did you know?" he whispered. "Do I show it?" The explanation which this remark necessitated was extremely painful. Lynwood could not believe the terrible news, yet he had so long been accustomed to put implicit faith in Perry's infallibility that he was greatly alarmed.

"I didn't Intend to tell anybody," he said, "but I have mentioned it to one or two people—in fact, confound me, I've told every man, woman and oar horse that I've met. It's one of the symptoms. A few more won't make ! any difference. I'll have Dr. Fossendon i come over to my place this evening." i Perry got through the day fairly I well. . Indeed at times he forgot that he was doomed. In the evening, however, he began to feel bad again. He was sitting at the desk writing to Ethel. He had not the courage to go to see her. Of course, the engagement must be broken, but he knew that he couldn't do it face to face. It would be better to send a clear, written statement. All the worst symptoms came back to him as he wrote—the pain In his head, the dizziness, the dreadful, ominous trembling of the fingers and arm. The change 1» his handwriting was enough of itself to remove the last doubt as to his condition. When he arose, with the sealed letter in his hand, his head reeled, and he felt faint and weak. He went out to mail the letter, and, happening to meet some friends, he remained nearly an hour. Dr. Fessenden had sent word that he would call about midnight, and it was only a few minutes after that hour when Perry got back to bis room. The doctor had been there quite a long time, having arrived earlier than he had anticipated. When Perry entered, he was pacing the floor, holding his right elbow in his left hand. "I've taken the liberty to write some letters." he said. "Where in blue blazes did you get that desk?" "My fiancee gave it to me," replied Perry, forgetting for a moment that he no longer had a fiancee. "Isn't it a beauty?" "It's handsome enough," said the doctor; "but, sainted Jehosimphat it's a terror to write on! Why, man, that little molding on the edge catches you right on the crazy bone, and yon can't get away from it no matter how you sit. My arm is full of the St. Vitus' dance." Perry stopped with wide open eyes. His jaw dropped. "And that lamp!" continued the doct o r "Theblamedr^thlng concentrates the heat right on top'of a fellow's.head. When I got up, I was so dizzy that I nearly fell in a fit I should think a man who had written as much as you have would have had the sense"— "Miss lien ram gave me the desk, and she arrangod everything," stammered Perry. "And so you thought It must he perfection!" sreorod the doctor. j an imagination overstrained by too much* struggling with the troubles of | the fictitious Langbam. His mind was a prophetic panorama wherein he saw a short future full of grief. When at last he sought his bed, it was to find ten thousand nightmares stabled under his pillow, and in the morning he was unrefreshed and tremulous as a drunkard. . Upon leaving the building he went to the barber's shop where he was'accustomed to be shaved. The cheerful artist of the razor gave him good day and assured him that be was looking well. "I'll give you a dollar," said Perry sharply, "If you'll tell me honestly how I do look." "You don't mean that there's any* thing really the matter?" he asked In a t;one of real sympathy^ "Nothing but paresis," replied the just iike a i {!:;• niii!tcr S;''H! for me" ": !o;:von I I'lITV " l - an ! •ith love.

By the time he was dressed his rage and righteous indignation were too great for words. He felt like killing some one. As he threw open the door a slip of paper Muttered to the door.

"Lalla Rookh" was read universally and translated into several European languages. The poem has no lofty Miltonic flights, no hall of Eblis reaching the height of the sublime, but it is cal ciliated to suit the taste of every order of the mind. Young and old, educated and uneducated, comprehend its luxurious imagery, sweet passages, fascinating descriptions and gorgeous voluptuousness; hence the uncommon popularity of the poem.

OT course it was very annoying. Hie cigar had gone, and, that source Of Consolation lost, Charlie had to turn to something else in order to interest himself. A companion in misery was alongside. Up to the present Charlie did not know whether he were young or old—all he saw was that a man had been shoved in ahead of him. So he leaned his head toward that~j> of his fellow-passenger and exclaimed in French: "Monsieur, it seems that we are companions in misery. Might 1 ask your name?" giving hl3 own a t the same time. (^'f^ The other did not appear downcast —indeed, he answered, quits cheerfull y : " "I am Henri, the Marquis of Montpensier, a blood relative of Don Carlos of Spa!h7r Further conversation was prevented by a gruff demand from one of the guards for silence. At length they drew up to the prison. Without ceremony the two prison- " era were hustled into~the1srh Charlie silently walked into the dark cell which yawned before him. To have refused would have been folly, ainco by force ha -would, dnub. have been thrown over the thresh old. Ah! he might be worire off. His cigar case still held , a few choice weeds, such as yappsal most strongly to the heart of the confirmed smoker. So he hastened to secure a cigar. Next came a match. As he struck this latter and a light sprang into existence he heard an exclamation, and remembered he had a comrade in misery. He saw a ycung chap with a resolute face. There wa3 more of an American look about him than European, and yet Charlie remembered having heard him give the name of Guissppc Brigncii, as though he wore an Italian. "Pardon, comrade,*' Charlie said in French. '"Allow me to light my \viu\l. since matches are scarce and t'.i?n I shall offer yen a cigar," with which he proceeded to put has words into execution. "Thanks awfully, but 1 don't smoke." said the other laconically in the best of English. The match expired oefore Charlie could get another look at his comrade. But he knew his first suspicion was true—the young fellow came of Anglo- Saxon stock, and had assumed an Italian name in order to keep his own from disgrace or from some other reason. They might exchange confidences while trying to pass away the long hours, or at least engage in social discourse. "Pardon me again, sir, but can ycu spare a couple of matches?" asked the ether. "Half-a-dozen, a t your service." "Thanks. They may serve my end well and yours in the bargain." Charlie's curosity flashed up. What did the ether mean to do? Was he desperate enough to think of setting t h e prison on fire? Nonsense! There was not one chance in a million of accomplishing such a thing to men shut up here In this grimy dungeon. Neve:thele3S, he knew that nothing was ever accomplished without effort, and that often a capricious fortune aids thos^ who help themselves. A cursory examination of their dungeon revealed a startling, yet cheering, fact Under the boards the yourgsters discovered a tunnel. When the flat stone was lifted up, behold! an opening yawned below. The youth gave thanks in his peculiar way, and without much more ado jumped into the breach. "I shall return, comrade," he said. And Charlie believed him. He sat there smoking his cigar and feeding the flames with bits of the splintered planking. MinuteB passed. .Evidently his companion was making quite a tour under the prison flooring. - At last there was a movement, and a head appeared above the stone flagging. ~—tiQhfe^me-a-handT-_please.'' Charlie knew from the look of triumph upon his face that the other was decidedly pleased with what he had discovered. , "In luck, eh?" he hazarded. • "The best in the world. Some good <nap in the past has made a tunnel all but breaking through. I did that part while I was gone. In fact, to tell you the truth, I've been uuder the MUrngtv '*' ""OutBlde the prison walls?" incrednkmsly. "Yes. When 1 tr.pped the end of beyond the outer walls. But I suppose we might as well go." "Then good-by, my des,r fellow," "But—you will share my escape. We don't separate yet, you know." - 'Tin not going." "Not going? You prefer to remain ir this acouiBod hole, when freedom nf, fers? Come, you are joking, sir." "Oh, no. You see if I crawled out o' here I would, by implication, admit m3 connection with those whom Baror Peterhcff has hauled in. Being innc cent, I shall sit here until he come: to beg my pardon and personally con duct me to freedom." The youngster looked a t him witi. kindling eyes. ^•JBravo! I like your spirit," he said "Wcfyd you mind shaking hands with me, sir?" "It will be a pleasure on my part.' And they exchanged a warm grip. "I hope we may mset again. Let mc give you my card. Who knows wha strange chance may drift us tcgethe again. Who can say under what condi tions we may come together again?" Who indeed? Both of them would have -beer chilled with norror could thsy havt even guessed tne truth, but the vol: of the future mercifully hid that fron. mortal ken. Another hearty Anglo-saxcn hand shake, then t h e youngster dreppet into the hole. Charlie made as comfortable a sea! as was possible from some of the oh planks and_kcpt _jho_ fire going witl fragments. By degrees hid thoughts camt around again to his late companion. Then he remembered that as yet h« id~~noT even know t h e other's- tnr~ name. Where was the card? Ah, ju3t where he had thrust, it, and, bending down he read tne name by the flickering light of his fire. Then it dawned upon him why Jihad felt such a singular interest ii the young fellow, and why he hat deemed his features familiar, ye. cculd net grasp the tangible substance for the name, written boldly, va3. ALEXANDER BRAND. Here then was th? most remarkable coincidence in the whcle course of hi-. varied experiences. There cculd be no mistake. This young .fellow bare seme rela tu-nship—that of brother or cousin rvihapo—to Arline. He had her name, and there' wa<. 1 strong family resemblance \.\ theL .aces. Tlieie must bo a sense of awe in the realization that one is a mere pup pet in the handa of destiny—that the power which sends unnumbered worlds whirling through space in theii exact orbits, without danger of ecl lision, or of the slightest change in their course, can condescend to superintend such a small thing as the welfare of one puny human life. Charlie pondered upon the matter a long time. Then, before he knew it, he fell asleep, despite his hard seat and his determination to remain on guard. '"'hen he awoke he was stiff and soro. .^ light gleamed in his eyes—it was the warder making the rounds with bread and water. When the gruff man held up the light in order to view the confines o! of the dungeon, and beheld only Charlie seated there and blinking like an owl, he was much amazed. He demanded to knew where the other prisoner had hidden himself. Charlie calmly pointed to the hole still uncovered by the slab of stone. "Oh! he's gone out for a walk," he said, coolly. The man began to grasp the situation, and when h<D could move, he sprang to the door of the dungeon to bawl for assistance. Several other wardens came tumbling into the cell. Then ensued a great powwow of Dutch phrases., while Charlie yawned and stretched himself. Then came the commandant. "How did this happen?" he demanded. "Well, you see, he had an appoint- 89 3 .estlgate when the all-powerful Baro ,'eterhoff bromht In political prisoner? vith order* to hold them securely.- Would meln faerf bs pleased to go vith him to his office, where he could ;e more comfortable, and there await :he coming of the baron, who would with a word set him free? But mein herr was obstinate. The baron must come to him. As ment, and did not wish- to break his engagement" "But you, mein herr; how is it you remain? Do you like this residence so well?" grimly. "I told you la3t night, or attempted to, that I was an Innocent party—that Baron Peterhoff was my friend—that my arrest, under the circumstances was an outrage; and hence I utterly refused to leave this place until you and the baron had humbly begged my pardon. Indeed, I am not sure but that I will Insist on remaining here until the English" consul comes to ser me and take3 action against your miserable government for treating mc. c British subject, in this disgraceful way." Just as he had expected, his manner awed the fiery commandant, who feared trouble, He began to whine at once, and expressed his rgret that any mistake should have occurred. Surely mein herr must hold him blameless, since he had only done hi* duty in the premises. It- was not given to him to In- Paul and Silas, in days of yore, made he governor unbend his dignity and 2ome to plead with them to go away, >o Charlie meant to keep hold of his advantage. So the commandant went away. Charlie was still smoking, with one of the keepers for company, and the loor of his cell wide open, when voices vere heard in the corridor. Then entered the baron. The great man looked both disturbed tnd amused. He had heard the amaz Ing story of the commandant, and sifted the wheat from the chaff, so that he had a pretty fair idea as to the truth. He marched straight up to Charlie uul stretched cut his hand. "My most abject apologies, my dsar boy, for what has happened. It was P miserable mistake, on my part. I trus-' you will forgive me," he s^aid. Charlie saw he was sincere, and a? Ms indignation passed away he unbeni his dfgnlty7~ "Then ycu know it was Mi3S Arline Brand, and not the Countess Isolde whom I assisted Into a carriage at the Steen?" he asked, eagerly, determined to put his fears to the test. "Yes; she has assured me she nevelaw^ you, saTFat'lii'tttstaTiTe^'TetuTiredthe baron. Then it Is all right. Now I arr ready to leave here and go out wltr cu; bar*©**-."-he said, smiling "To breakfast with me, I hope." Charlie hesitated. True, he anticipated more or le?r pleasure in his coming interview witl Arline. There would be much to heannd some surprising things to tell or his part. But these would keep a little longer besides, it is sometimes exceedingl: pleasant; to anticipate a feast. He had something which he wisher" to relate to the baron, seeking in return his advice and material a'.d. Whenever men went to the desperat length 'of contemplating crime, in orde to secure wealth, as the so-called Cap' Brand and his confreres had certainl done when they purposely abandoue the young girl among those awfu passages amid the Steen dungeons, i was time the stem arm of the lav/ wa invoked in order to bring them ur with a round turn. And t o whom could he go with r better ehow of results than to th baron? So, arm in arm, Charlie and Baror Demetruis Peterhol! sauntered out 0 the prison. It was about eight in the morning Charlie could Imagine the young fe1 low standing on the deck of the ver -*el bound for London, and snappin his fingers at the baron's dragnet. He was determined not to give thslightest clew to his companion COD cerning Alexander Brand, his plans c present whereabouts. A vehicle stood near. Into this Charlie was shown; th baron followed, and presently thedrew up before a palatial abode, wher the widower baron resided in gre^ style, as became a man of his immen? means. And over the elaborate breaJcfa?' Charlie found a chance to sp'n h' little story, the baron proving greatl Interested, as the sparkle in his eye al tested. He could read Charlie's secret a easily as though the other carried thstory on his brow. "You have done excellently, Charlie my boy," he said, finally; "but it 1' just as well you ask my assistance iunmasking this unholy fraud. H. and h:s unprincipled accomplice might be too much for you. Dcpen upon it, I shall tear the mask from hi face, and that right speedily." (To be continued.) T i e K w l « 11111711 iff*.

Mr. Gillett could ;Ot understand what had caused the ...erriment and finally called Champ Clark, who happened near the speaker's desk, to come up and explain what .vas the matter. "Why, you told the members to sit down in the aisles," said Clark, "and you are a near neighbor of Boston, t'ou'll not be able to appear In Masachwu'tts society for two years at .east." "Ch, I see," said Mr. Gillett, seriously. "What I intended to say was t#'it the members in the aisles should take Jieir seats." * * * A visitor to the capitol burst into the press gallery of the house. "I beg your pardon," said Doorkeeper Mann, "but this gallery is reserved for the press." "I don't care about that," replied the visitor. "I am a taxpayer, and I lave a right to go anywhere In this ouilding." "Oh," said Mann, "if you arc a taxpayer, that's different. We have a special gallery reserved for taxpayers. Let me show you." And Mr. Maun blandly conducted the visitor to the public gallery.

The. visitor allowed that he had, and that the frescoes were beautiful, and tho place like heaven. Ho had also seen the senate; "but," ho repeated, "the town doesn't change much." "When were you here last?" asked Senator Depew, quite interested. "The last time I was here," said the old gentleman, "was sixty-two. years ago, when old i'om Benton too* me around."

His clay pipe, the bowl of which was turned upsside down, was in the corner of his mouth and his dinner pall was in his hand.

President Itooaevclt delivered the oration at Arlington, where the graves of the Confederate ds well as Union soldiers were strewn with flowers. The president in his address said: "Just a t tUs momant tha army of the United States is carrying to corup.etUm a- small but peculiarly trying and difficult war in wnioh is involved uot oniy the •honor of the flag, but the triumph of riviHagtton --over-forees-whfcfe" siand for the bla-k chaos of savagery and barbarism.'* The president regrets that, "under terrible provocation trom a very cruel and treacherous enemy," some of the soldiers have "so far forgotten themselves as to counsel and commit, in retaliation, acts of cruelty." Far greater atrocities have been -committed by the natives, but that does not excuse American wrongdoers, and they should be punished. "From time to time there occur in our country, to the deep and lasting shame of our people, lynohlngs, carried on under circumstances of Inhuman cruelty and barbarity—a cruelty infinitely worse than any that has ever been committed by out troops in the Philippines; worse to the victims, and far moie brutalizing to those guilty of it.

Together we visited his native town in Germany, where h e was made much of. Of course they h a d a 'kommers,' and my companion took t h e opportunity to endeavor to make a speech after the American style, but in t h e German language, of course. He started out boldly, though he is no public speaker, and got along fairly well until he attempted the funny story which he knew should accompany every American speech worthy the name. I t was funny, I assure you, as he told it, But "his "fieareTf" 'we're" toff wetttnan^ aered to laugh a t their fellow-townsman, and so it fell flat.

Commander Potts, recently sent to tiermany ns naval attache nt the American embassy, ha a been refused recognition by Emperor William. Potts was a conspicuous figure in the navy department clique thnt prosecuted Admiral Schley. Emperor Willlum was reported to have studied the Bchle.v-Sampson controversy pretty thoroughly and to have reached the conclusion that Schley had been cruelly wronged by the navy department cliqae. Hence his antipathy to Potts. The right of any nation to refuse to receive a military or naval attache is fully recognised The Rmperor Received Hint.

Potts had been received by other German naval officials of high rank with every mark of consideration. T h e American naval attache had not been given an audience with the emperor, simply because his majesty had been almost continually absent from Berlin slncp the foreign office was officially notified o ' his arrival. The story thnt Emperor William of his testimony against Schley is denied. A S t e r n J n d i r e .

On the first morning of the fog, coming down after a somewhat restless night, she inquired the cause of the banging which she had frequently heard. Her son-in-law told her that it was due to the fog, and as the old lady did not ask any further questions the matter was dropped. On her return to the country, however, she was full of the wonderful things she had seen in London. "Did ye see a Lonnon fog, granny?" said one of her listeners one evening, when London was again the all-absorbing topic. "Aye. that I did!" replied granny; "and heard un, t o o !

Divorce is even more easily managed in Syria than it is in America, for in America there are at least some law court proceedings to be gone through, whereas in Syria three words spoken by the husband will do the deed and put the woman out of the housfe. These words spoken, the wife drops whatever work she may be engaged in, takes her youngest child (the others belong t o their father, aud goes back to her father's house, where she remains, a lusowneu and degraded creature, until another purchaser comes forward for her. If the woman's husband repent and -desires-rto-have—her -bacir. kv e n - gages a professional tool—generally a half-witted person, who makes a Hvins in this way—to marry her and divorce her next day. The reason of this Is that a man may not take back hi3 divorced wife unless she has since been married and divorced by another man. llarmfnl Fond- l l a r d t o T r o v e The pure food bills that are base'1 on the discovery in them of deleteriou. substances are practically iiuposs>b.< of enforcement.
