The tragedy; occurred in the home of ex-Mayor Fuighum, Mrs. Gardner being th» mother of Mrs. Fuighum, with whom she was living. The couple were dl« vorced ten years ago, the facts leading to the divorce not being known, and Gardner went to Lafayette, Ind., itnd up to two weeks ago had not been seen in Traverse City, since. Mrs. Gardner and her daughter were alone in t h e hour.e, when someone knocked at the trout door. Mrs. Fuighum went to the door and opened it, when a man wearing a mask pushed his way in and asked for the man of the house. Mrs. Fuighum ran to the street screaming for help and immediately heard two reports from a revolver, and fell fainting to the walk. When the neighbors arrived they found that "Gardner had dragged his wife to t h e kitchen and shot her. He then tore off the mask and, placing a revolver at each temple, shot himself. The double of man was demenied. Mrs. Gardner was a gentle, refined woman of 58 years, who moved in t h e best social circles, and her tragic death was a shock to her many friends. S^e had neve.- heard from her husband since he went away, 10 years ago. It is said Gardner had a grudge against his son-in-law, dating from before tho marriage of the latter to his daughter,, and it is believed he went to the Fuighum home with the intention of killing the whole family. Gardner's insane disposition is shown from the fact that some years ago he attempted to kili his father. THE MARKETS.

MARY R. P. HATCH. CHAPTER I. A Mysterious Journey. It is the middle of May, 1879. Like & living creature the sentient earth is pulsing with the rush of vitality so Ions withheld by the reluctant season. The buds are ready to burst, the grass is unsheathed, while white-limbed birches and brown-skinned maples are losing their distinctive Aryan and Semitic types under the green robes May is weaving for all. Contradictory elements are abroad this morning in the weather'; at all events here in Grovedale, New Hampshire. There is a stiff northwest wind, a low-reaching fog with The sua struggling to look through it, and a sky that looks like rain. If the sun comes out it will not be directly, and it is nearly time for the seven o'clock train whistle. After that a half-hour, and then Mr. Hamilton must go, if he go at all this morning. Meanwhile, his wife is trying to convince him that he would better wait until to-morrow, .it looks so much like rain. A fair, handsome couple, not yet miildle-aged, they stand at the window of the dining-room looking out, riither than at each other. A packed •¥ftUse=*ests Qj^a=citaliy and the break- -fasrt 4afele U-letto tlia_chil_dren, a boy and a girl. Mr. Hamilton carries a light ovtrcoat on his arm, his hat and gloves in his hand, and yet his wife declines ;o see that he is ready to go, but talks idly about the weather. He answers in the same way, though it is •evident to both that underneath their words ihero is deeper meaning, which .neither wishes to make apparent. "Must yen, when it looks so much plain at present. There goes the whistle. What shall I bring you, Claire?" going to his little girl's side and stooping to kiss her. A small face, framed in golden hair, with big, dark eyes looking out from under fluffy bangs, was raised to his as she sprang to her feet. "Oh, a ring, papa~a gold ring," "All right. 1 won't forget. And you, Perley?" "A writing book, if you please. Mine is all written through." "Very well," kissing the boy as he had his sister. "And what shall I bring you, Constance?" he asked, returning to his wife's side. "Just yourself, and let it be scon," looking eagerly and earnestly into his face. "I shall be back soon, never fear. Constance, you are more beautiful than you ever were, aad I love you better," he whispered. "I wish I were at home again. I will be soon," And kissing her hastily he took his valise, after putting on his hat, gloves, and overcoat, and left the house. His wife stood by the window watching him until he was out of Fight, when a thrill of superstitious ) fear shot through her. She had watched him out of sight. Away back in her childhood a maiden relative had so strongly impressed her mind with the malevolent influences of such an act that she could never, despite her common sense, get fritt of-thFijeiiefr— - _ = _ = _ _ _ ButTshe was cheeredthe next moment by recollecting her tower. She sped quickly upstairs, Hum along the corridor and to another, flight. This brought her to the foot of the tower, which was built at one side of the bouse, and rose fifteen feet above it. There were windows in it on all sides, and it gave a commanding view of the country, romantic and unusual, for the "It is best that 1 do not explain at present." ki** • W*t .> 'like rain?'' she asks negligently, retying the ribbon which confines her morning dress, and picking out the 4>ows before looking up. "Like rain, Constance! Why, who over knew it to rain, with the wind in the northwest?" "That is the way it comes lately. It has been remarked, Vane, by a great many people; and it you should get wet you would get cold, ami with your weak lungs—" 'T'.-haw, Constance! my lungs are as tti'ons as a horse, and so am I." "Cut your mother (lied with consumption." " • • ' • • "Very true. But it isn't going to rain, mark my words; the sun will be out in less than an hour, and, if it should rain, I am neither sugar nor salt, to dissolve with the first drop. Oh, you may depend I shall be, all right." "Rut you are not as well as usual. You are more nervous. Yv%i talk in your sleep, and your appetite has failed lately." "The more reason why I need a change. The fact is, my business is. too much for mo this debilitating spring weather. I suspect I am a little •bilious, and since Mr. Henderson and your uncle have chosen to leave the mill business so much to me, that •with my unties at the bank, has.worn me down. They will have to take the reins in my absence, and Tony will do very well at the bank for the two weeks I am away." "Always two weeks," murmured his wife. "Yes; and I am sure it seems like a year." "Then why do you go?" "IV ranso 1 must. You would not tindcrstau- k It is best that I do not exinto a seat oesiae the telescope while her thoughts flew backward to the beginning of her married life, slowly reviewing the years until now—years of mystery, evpry one of them. Its entity impressed her at this moment as never before. Eight years ago when a girl of twenty- two she married Vane Hamilton. How well she recollected the first time she met him! She, the niece of the wealthy mill owner, Mr. Carter, who had but lately come to Grovedale; he soon to have an interest in the same business, though he did not know it then. In a year from their first meeting they were married. Vane's mysterious journeys began the spring after their marriage, and they took place always in May. How well she recollected her own chagrin at not being invited to accompany him; she, almost a bride, to be left while he went alone on his trip! Worst of all, he neater told her where he was going, nor his object in going, and from that time until now it had been a mystery. Among the townspeople they were looked upon as business trips to Boston, but she herself knew that he went elsewhere. And he stayed from home two weeks. Once he left her quite ill, though out of danger, the physician assured him. Another time she asked him to take her with him and he refused. Always there was an Air of secrecy, a grave •abstraction, an intangible difference in his manner, as if called about an irksome business, Meanwhile, Clare and Perley were added to their home, and they had been happy through the eight years of their married life despite the mystery of his yearly trips. For she trusted him. She was sure that he loved her; but each time as the middle of May approached she grew nervous, and in various indirect ways tried to hinder his going. Just at that moment the sun burst -C4iL The most unbelieving could not _call__±h_e_ weather into question, TfuT The writer for the World's Work who inquired of twenty clergymen if they would choose the same occupation if they had their lives to live over, need not hav^ been surprised to find nine who replied that they would not; nor the investigator for Leslie's, Monthly who asked eleven teachers a similar question to find only one who was willing to say yes. Such expressions of disappointment can be got out of men and women of any and, every vocation, says the New Bedford Standard. The persbn who wishes he were something else than what he actually is can be found at almost any minute of the day by any one who takes the pains to inquire. Not much is proved by it, except that, in the first place, there are too many square pegs in round holes, and that, in the second place, there are more pegs for which there are no appropriate holes than i3 good for the community. We have no question that the nine clergymen and the ten teachers who wish they had chosen some other manner of life were not conspicuous successes in .the occupations they had selected, and it is rather to be doubted if all of them would have been successes in any of the occupations which they wish they had selected. It is not difficult for a clergyman to dream that he would have made a great lawyer, or for a school teacher to fancy that <he would have been a splendid captain of industry. But the great lawyers and the splendid captains of industry, might, if they would tell some stories of disillusion about the business. They would certainly say that if unsuccessful preachers and teachers put no more effort and interest into the law or into industry than they have put into preaching and teaching, the end would be the same disappointment and the same longing for something else. "Happy is th3 man who has found his work." It is a pity that so many persons have apparently not found the work that they could beet do and be happy in it. But sometimes it appears to us as if those who complain because they did not choose rightly, and who give up their thought to speculations of how much better they could have done if they had done something else, are pot quite doing themselves and their opportunities full "Justice. - _ The secret of happiness in an occupation is usually in the worker himself more than it is in the occupation. And it mostly comes from the disposition and the determination to do the best possible, even if a mistake or bad fortune have made a wrong choice. Not in fancying that better cculd have been done, but in doing the best yon can where you are is found the recipe of contentment with a life-work. bouse itself was built on high ground. Constance went straight to the window overlooking the street which led to the station. Far adown there was a spot where her husband would cross the street (unless he had crossed it already) to go to the train. Fronting the crossing was a betel known as the Essex House. She might see him, she thought, at this point. If so, she would just take one look to counteract the malignant effect of having watched him out of sight. With expectant eyes and half-parted lips she eagerly watched the turn in j !he street which he might, or might not, have passed. Ah! there he was, just as he left her, walking briskly. With a shut of relief Constance was about to turn away when a woman stopped out from the hotel door, and coming quickly down the steps, approached her husband. What could she want oi him, she a stranger? or was it some one else down the street she was coming to greet? No, it,was Mr. Hamilton. Constauce was breathless now with interest and curiosity. The woman was-evidently a stranger in Grovedale, young and pretty, if the distance did not lend undue enchantment, and she greeted her hus- j. band as if she knew him well—better than her husband knew her, for he stepped Back a pace or two as though surprised or not well pleased. There appeared to be but few words between them, and then the woman with slower step returned to the hotel, and Mr. Hamilton turned the corner, but not until his wife, remembering her object in coming to the tower, shrank back until he was out of sight. The fulfilment of her design did not, seem to have given Mrs. Hamilton unm^ i^'.nted satisfaction, for she sank still the cloud sat on Mrs. Hamilton's" brow. "Some women," she'whispered, for she was quite alone, "would suspect their husbands of wrong-doing, to go away as Vane does every year so mysteriously"; and then she went slowly downstairs to her own room, pausing on a stair to listen to the children's voices in the dining room. "I have them at all events," she thoughts Going straight to her. mirror she gazed long at her own reflection, noting- the" cTeaT,'~col'OTle^s^^olnTpTexloiv," the dark luminous eyes, the rich brown.hair with its gleams of gold, the tall, graceful figure, and the intangible charm which blent them all together into a charming personality, her own. She loved, her husband deeply, and' was not insensible to the compliment he paid her when going away. Why did he go, if he did not wish to? Surely business did not demand his absence. He had no relatives. He did not go for his health; besides, his trips were yearly. A wave of color sped over her face and she clutched her hands nervously. Just then the children came rushing in, and Perley said, clasping, her hand, "I am glad you are pretty, mamma. I should hate to have a homely one, shouldn't you, Clare?" "I should get used to it in time, I presume," said the precise little maiden. Mrs. Hamilton took them both in "her i-irni!-, .mil Impend t h e m t i g h t l y for a moment. Then she made them tidy for school, but instead of letting them go off alone, she put on a street dress and went with them. "I will go with you a little way," she said. "O mamma, will you, how far?" asked Perley. "Perhaps as far as the Essex House. I want to see Mrs. Fry. She is at work in the laundry this week, I hear. I must see her in regard to our" washing." But most of all she wished to learn something about the woman who had spoken to her husband. How fhe wished she had looked at her through the field glass she had in the tower! But it had not occurred to her at the time. As it was. she had only a rather, vague idea that the woman was young and pretty, and the uncomfortable conviction of jealousy on her own part, which she must try. to rid herself of speedily! What better way than to learn something about the woman, and her object in speaking to her husband? She would not ask foolish questions, but if the desired information came to her, well and good. (To be continued.) Toward the upper end of the ghats is the burning ground. There are no steps here, but a slope of beaten dirt. Stop half an hour and you may see every step of the crematiou rites. Sitting on stone ramparts above, to right and left, are friends and relatives of the dead_ ones. The figure to the right, huddled up in a bright green wrap, is of the lowest caste of Hindus and'keeps the mat shed near by wherj the s-1 crvd - fire for igniting every corpse is for sa!^. Ycu hear hoarse, loud cries oi "Ham! Ramanal'" and behold. burial procession incoming down the slope. Four men carry the corpse slung between two bamboo poles, and cry to the god Ram. Ho is the personification of filial love, and thus it "is. meet that. they.should call him to witness. They swing r.ovtn to the r-iv^r and irarn£i^e_jJic__Lorp?c. It is wrapped in a white shroud stained with red blotches. Then they lift the head slightly out of the water and remove the shroud from the face, splashing water five times upon the mouth. Others, in the meantime, are building a wooden oyre, made of fagots sold near by, and when finished standing three feet or more above ground. The corpse, its dark color showing through the dripping shroud, is: thenjnlaced on the wooden. altar and covered with fagots. This dohef all but two mount the ramparts and" watch the final ceremony. Of the two remaining, one pours oil upon the wood from a small clay dish, while the other gees to the rirekouse above. He soon returns with 'a long straw wisp, blazing at one end. Ho advances to the corpse's head, touches it with the wisp, and then circles the pyre five times, touching the head each time uru.ih..the fifth, when he places. the blv/iing wisp beneath the feet and the whole_p_i_l_e bursts_into flame. When all- is consumed the ashes aro raked' into the river and float away to bliss eternal.—F. J. 0. Alson in Outing. There's a spot on the hillside far away, Whmv in summer the grass grows given; Where, beneath the rustling elm tree's shade A moss-covered stone is seen. 'Tis a quiet and unfrequented spot, A solitude lone and wild; Yet—somebody's hopes are buried there— 'Tis the grave of a little child. In winter, alas! that mossy stone Is hid 'neath a shroud of snow; But around it in springtime fresh and sweet, The daisies and violets grow; And o'er it the summer breezes blow, ' With a fragrance soft and mild, And the autmn's dead leases thickly strew That grave of ft little child. Ami— every year- there's a xedbr_e_ast comes. When the month of May is nigh, And builds her nest in this quiet spot, 'Mid the elm tree's branches high; With her melody _£W_eet, by the hour she trills, As if by the scene beguiled, Perhaps—who knows'.'—'tia an angel comes To the grave of that little child. Yes.'somebody's hopes lie buried there, . Some mother is weeping in vain. For, though years may come and years may go. 'Twill never come hack again. Yet blessed are they who die in youth, The pure'and the underiled: Some load to heaven perchance runs through That grave of a little child. —Ledger.

Tarrytown-on-Hudson is but twentysix miles from New York by the old Post road, or what Is left of that memorable highway. If the boom in The Bronx continues, the subway will, by and by, hurry its passenger to the verge of Sleepy Hollow. New York is growing! Lines of transifortation and factories are desecrating s^ots that were sacred. Tarry town has four manufactories, and a dozen others have been kept away by the stubborn fight of rich landlords. John D. Rockefeller owns thousands of acres adjoining the tawn. The four tracks of the New York Central are insufficient for the traffic from the metropolis. A quadruple track electric line is now being built by this company. It will parallel the steam road and run to Croton, ten miles up the Hudson from Tarrytown. Commercialism is on every hand. * Bu* there is only ono Sunnyside. Its ivy-grown porch is none the less attractive when all things are glorified by the snow. " A tokon of friendship i m m o r t a l W i t h W a s h i n g t o n I r v i n g r e t u r n s — S c o t t ' s ivy e n t w i n e d o'er h i s nortul By tlir B h i e - e v t d L a s s i e of B u r n s . " Tramping back through the snow, I saw a great white mass fall from a wind-blown tree. It took on fantastic shapes as it whirled about in the air. Given this eery influence, my thoughts shaped images of old Baltus Van Tassel and the fair Katrina and Ichabod- Crane and Van Brunt. I was even prepared to hear the mad race of the Headless Horseman, but checkeii my- -_&eJf ilk l i n y L ^ J t would be moonlight on the Hudson in a few hours, and I could afford to wait. The Old Dutch House. Tommy Dean built the old Dutch ilous-e at the corner of Broadway, on the hill, in Tarrytown. He built it in hour for Sleepy Hollow and Irvlng's grave and the church! The limitation was annoying, and besides, I wanted to be alone. I had spent many half hours with the author of the Sketch Book. So away I tramped. The oldest church on the Hudson is only about a half mile north of Tarrytown. You are told that Frederick Fillpse and his wife Katrina Van Cortland built it in 1690, and it looks Just as if a Dutchman and his wife did erect it about that year. I think Katrina put her foot down real hard under Aer short skirts, when the plans were being made. It shows, however, that a Dutchman had the principal say about it. Katrina worked in a few frills around the cupolar and there The church stands, much like a blockhouse fort. Irving's Plain Grave. "Washington Irving, born April 3, 1783. Died Nov. 28. 1859." I leaned over the gate in the fence that surrounds the sacred plot of ground, and read this inscription on a plain slab of marble about two feet high. A dozen other stones somewhat smaller occupy the modest enclosure. The sexton came by, and I spoke to him. He said that visitors had chipped away two other slabs, that this was the third one erected over1' Irving's grave. I wondered that, out of 70,- 000,000 people in the gentle author's country, none had seen fit to build up instead of chip away. It will be a matter of no great surprise if Englishmen some_day endeavor to place a Tasting sliaft among the trees^ThaT surrotrrrd the- resting place-trf-the-man-t that they too love.' j I do not mean that his spirit is of necessity ' less happy because rich bankers and brokers and brewers, in dvins. have had erected tall monu- BIGGEST CODFISH ON RECORD. Gloucester Fishermen Recently LancTed a Monster. It will interest Maine fishermen to know that the grandfather of all codfish, the biggest one ever brought into Boston within the memory of the oldj est fisherman, was lately landed at f wharf by the fishing schooner E. A. Hooper of Gloucester. The fish weighed eighty-five pounds after being dressed, and must have weighed about 100 pounds when captured. It was /almost six feet in length. The fish was taken near Halfway Rock, off Marblehead. One of the dorymen got a terrific yank on one of his lines when the big fellow took hold, and after vainly struggling with the monster to get him up from the depths the man hailed a mate to come to his aid. The two fishermen each took a long pull and then both pulled together, and this hove the cod to the surface, and he was successfully gaffed into the dory.—Bangor (Me.) Commercial. ' H E A R T OF T H E HOME." Called It Debt of Honor. A medical man in France was asked to be present at a duel in his professional capacity. He got up early, traveled some miles, "flamed" the swords and ministered to his client, who was slightly wounded. When both honor and wound were healed, he looked for his fees and sent in a bill for 50 francs ($10). The patient replied through his wife, who wrote: "I am told that between men there is a question of delicacy which forbids even the slightest appearance of trade in such a matter. Neither the doctors nor the seconds are brought on the ground, for money. If you persist in your claim I shall, to my great regret, be obliged to leave to others the duty of settling this fine point with you." In Those Words Clubwoman Aptly Describes the Kitchen. "Domestic science seems to be the solution of several vexed questions, such as the servant problem, divorce, and temperance. If more money \yere expended by cities in introducing' domestic science Into the schools less money would need to be spent on insane aBylums, poorhouses and penitentiaries," said Miss Ella G. Neave in her address on "The Progress of Domestic Science" before the department of the household economics and education of the Woman's Club. "Tho kitchen is the heart of the home The woman who holds the comfort of a man battling with the world in her hands has responsibility as great as that of a commander of a battleship. The only remedy for the evils of bad cooking and lack of good homes is in the schools of domestic science which are established in the public schools." —Cincinnati Commercial Tribune.

I suffered with Backache and Female weakness for four or five years and I feel that I have been wonderfully helped by Dodd's Kidney Pills. My husband, too, was a sufferer for five years from a weak bladder and they also cured him." Dodd's Kidney Pills make healthy kidneys.

Half the strength spent in grumbling would often set things right. No one finds the world Quite as ho would like it,—Robert Hall. Full Address. A New York retail dealer in men's attire engaged for his ill wife a German nurse. The latter asked her employer to send her new address to Berlin, so that her old mother in the German capital could send her letters to the proper place. Thinking the best way to fix matters would be to put the nurse's name on top of his business card, the merchant did this. The first letter to come from Germany made the letter-carrier giggle as he handed it out. It had the following scribbled ovsr the envelope names and places here being changed: "Madame Julia Hampt, care of Jame3 Broome, dealer in men's clothes, underwear and hats, 2886 Bowery, New York city, N.

The DISPATCH has a good list of subscribers who receive their mail at Howell but wbo last week must have received their paper one day late, owing to the change of time on the Grand Trunk System, which now makes connections with nothing but their own system. Heretofore our morning acail for HoarelLand west on the r*ere Marquette would go on the morning Ann Arbor train arriving in Howfll, Weberville and Fowlerville in time for the rural carriers. Now the mail does not arrive there uatil afternoon or evening. We wish to say to those subscribers however, that we shall try# hereafter to make the evening mail Wednesday so that they will receive their DISPATCH on time. We shall do our best not to let a little thing like the Grand Trunk Ry. System balk us in our endeavors to give our patrons a good newsy local paper on time.

Amos Talbert, the comfortable, gen- 'al landlord of the Essex House, had a wife and daughter; the latter unmarried, though not of uncertain age, a s f.he bad not the least objection to any one's knowing that she was fortytwo. With her bright complexion, brighter eyes and manners, she was one of the most attractive ladies in GFovedale, and it was no task, therefore, for Mrs. Hamilton to chat with h e r for a few moments. "Have you many guests in the house now?,".she asked Miss Talbert. "Very few ""steady- hoarders, but a •good many ' t r a n s i e n t s . ' " "I wonder if the green-haired lady is gone yet." said_ Miss Chase, looking up from her work with a smile. "Yes, she went on the seven o'clock train." "On the train with my husband," thought Mrs. Hamilton; but you may be sure she did not say this. Instead she repeated wonderingly, as she looked at Miss Talbert with polite interest, "a green-haired lady!" "I am not surprised, at your surprise," said Miss Talbert, laughing. "You would wonder still more if you were to see her. She came on the train last night and went away this morning." "But you don't mean to say her hair is actually green, do you?" "Not a bright, vivid green, but a siip^ny^enrerald^triTit^haTd-to^-doacribef T h e sea takes on such a color sometimes in the shadow of an overhanging cUff. You should see it, Mrs. Hamilton. She is very pretty, has lovely features, and a sweet voice. I was quite charmed by her." "I think she knows Mr. Hamilton," said the dressmaker, "for she ran out to meet him when he came down the street." "Ah! perhaps you know her. too." said Miss Talbert. looking at Mrs. miss him already! No one can manage like Vane. In a week or two? Yes, that's what he told me. But, by George; he never told me where he was going. S t r a n g e ! ' Always goes off In May. Of course you know." She murmured something about Boston and rest. "He needs it, by George! Hope he'll get it. I shall need a rest when he gets back. Our business grows, Mrs. Hamilton. It's double what it was two years ago. Didn't realize it while Vane was here." "He works too hard, Mr. Henderson." "I know it. Your uncle and I are old fogies, and lazy to Jboot. We put too much on his shoulders. I told him so this morning. 'Carter,' says ' 1. 'Vane's been working too hard.' 'I know it,' says , he. 'Vane h a s lost twenty pounds lately.'" "Is that so?" asked Constance, startled. "So your uncle said. S'posed you knew it. Well, this will never s tie, stopping to talk to pretty women when business is booming at the mill," and the jolly mill-owner passed on. leaving Constance to pursue her way homeward. How hollow the house sounded! How still it was! What would life be without husband or children? Grim walls, staring pictures, lifeless furniture do not make home, she realized forcibly as she sank into a chair and folded her gloved hands on her lap. ——Two week»=pa&8-so-4uickly.."JsJie murmured, ."Sometimes I can scarcely realize they have passed. When" he comes back I shall ask him all about it. I have never done it, but I will now. Secrets ought not to come between man and wife. I will tell him so. They might make trouble. They do sometimes. Mr. Henderson thinks it strange, I could see that, and so ^ioes Tony. I must tell Vane about i t ' w h e n he comes back." As you may imagine, with such contfv*' 4readful pretty tie more than C4Mtt%$M had already heard, but it g a v J I p ^ i ^ h to think about for Several 6)n^;M|i^ad, until a week had passed.

Surely yqu have forgotten that he is away." "But hasn't he got home?" "Certainly not. I don't expect him for a- week." "He was at the bank last night, Mrs. Hamilton. Of that, I am certain." "Then where can he be now?" 'I don't know. I supposed he was here, and I called over to see him as be didn't come to the bank. Perhaps he is at the mill." "Without coming home, Tony?" Young Osborn bit his lips and thought deeply, but each moment grew more bewildered. "Did you speak to h i m ? " asked Mrs. Hamilton. "Yes, and he spoke to me. Banking he'urs are over at four, you know, and it was just after dark that I saw him going into the bank as I was passing. 'Hullo!' I said. It was the first thing I thought to say, for I was surprised to see him so soon. 'Hullo,' he said, and laughed a little. 'Didn't expect me back so soon, did you?' 'No,' I said, *I didn't.' Then he went in and shut the door after him, and I —"Tony, that, coAildnJi have been Mr, Hamilton." "It certainly was. It was his voice I heard, and his form, features, gait, everything. 1 couldn't have been mistaken."' " T o n y , " s a i d Mrs. Hamilton, in a low, terrified voice, "I am afraid you have been deceived. It must have been a burglar." "Oh, no. there isn't the least doubt in the world that it was Mr. Hamilton; none at all." "Was everything right this morn- Tug?"1 — "Yes." "Nothing missing?" "No; nothing at all. All that surprises me is that he isn't here." "He would certainly have been if he had ecme home. That makes me think you have been deceived." For answer Tony took from his vest pocket a small shirt-stud of unique design and handed it to Mrs. Hamilton. "I found it on the desk just as it would have fallen if it had become loosened from his shirt front." "Oh. Tony! What does i t ' m e a n ? " Hamilton 9 T H I MODERN FARMER. How He Uvea, at Compared With . . - .Fifty Year* Ago. he farming life of to-day, as contrasted with that of fifty years ago, is a paradise of comfort and convenience. . T h e lonely loghouse, remote from market and devoid of advantages C a t a half cycle of time has made possible, would scarcely appeal to the present day farmer. The twentiethcentury soil tiller has practically ah the modern comforts. His mall is delivered daily. He has telephonic con* nectlon with the buying and seMing world, affording the best opportunities for marketing to advantage. His home is of recent architecture, constructed of wood, brick or stone, and well furnished. Ho has. modern plumbing and modern heating, and with the advent of acetylene gas, he has modern lighting. At night his home is as attractively illuminated as that of his city brother, for it is a suggestive fact that "acetylene for country homos" has so appealed to the farmer, that of the 80,000 users of acetylene gas in the United States, the farmer is one of the largest of all classes. Ever seeking the best, he has not hesitated in availing himself of this new light. The continued growth and progress of t h i | great country,- ever a cause of wonderment, has no greater exemplification than evolution on the farm. Already the farmer is becoming tbe most envied of men—ths freest, the healthiest, the happiest! RICH REWARD FOR SAILORS. - ImmenseTreasure*^aptw^ed^by-Eng.. iish From SpanJ[ard«u Sea battles at the present time do not result in such great rewards of prize money as formerly. English sailors in times p a s t • h a v e brought great fortunes home after their successful cruises. In the*war with Holland, 1651-1654, English ships are said to have taken 1,700 prizes, worth $30,- 000.000. In 1657 the Spaniards loaded British sailors with treasure. ^They seized two of the Spanish, gatteons so richly laden with gold and jewels that it took thirty-eight jwagons to carry the treasure from Portsmonth to London. In 1761 came the historic capture of the Hermione, the Spanish treasure ship from Lima. The admiral and captains received as their share $325,000 apiece, the lieutenants $65,- 000, warrant officers about $20,000, petty officers nearly $10,000 and even the common seamen $2,500 each. On arriving at Portsmouth the seamen bought, up all the watches in the place and fried them over the galley lire. In hi cQttffi!

We could not have west of the Mississippi, a population of millions of people who are prosperous and are great consumers* We never should have seen the years when we bttitt 10,000 and 12,000 miles of railway, for there would have been no farmers west of the Mississippi river who could have used the land t h a t would have been opened up by the building of those xailwi"y8*„And if we had Jioi_seen__the years when we could build 10,000 ant 12,000 miles of railway a year, we should not have to-day east of the Mississippi a Bteel and iron producing center, which is at once the marvel and the despair of Europe, because we could not have built up a steel and iron industry if there had been no market for its product. We could not have in New England a great boot and shoe industry; we could not have in New England a great cotton milling industry; we could not have spread throughout New York and Pennsylvania and Ohio manufacturing Industries of the most diversified kinds, because those industries would have no market among the farmers west of the Mississippi river.

' - : . / Hamilton. 'Her name was booked as Mrs. Anderson, Newark, N. J." "No, I do not," she answered, "and t'Kave never heard my husband speak of a green-haired acquaintance." This statement in regard to the meeting of her husband and the greenhaired lady coincided with the glimpse she had of it from her tower, though at t h a t distance she had not noticed the color of her hair. An accidental meeting, evidently; but they went on in the same train together, perhaps in the same car. If, friends, undoubtedly they rode together. Well, what - of t h a t * Friends meet each other at ev- Her husband might in the • done the woman a kindness • r «bme little service. It would be like him. He would tell her all about it on his return. And, with a pleasant adieu to Miss Chase, Mrs. Hamilton went away. She called at the Savings Bank in passing, and Tony Osborn. w i t h . h i s pen behind his ear, came at once to .speak to her. "Good morning, Tony; very busy, I suppose." "Awful, now Ham—Mr. Hamilton is away." "Did he,tell you just when to expect .him back—what day, I mean?" asked Mrs. Hamilton. "No. In a week or two, he said. But It's all a joke about my being husy, you know, for everything was put in shape before he went." "I'm glad to hear you are not driven." said Mrs. Hamilton, reflecting that her husband always cleared the way for others, but took the roughest ^ • t h , himself. And then she went on fcer way. She met Mr. Henderson, o stopped to speak to her. aod to when her husband would be sack. "Only been away six hours and we tradictory thoughts, and so much alone, Constance did not find the days very swift in passing. Indeed, they lagged terribly, though she made calls, practiced her music and did sundry odd jobs of sewing, the accumulation of the winter months. To add to her anxiety she did not receive one word from her hifsband. Meanwhile, she had seen and talked with Mrs. Fry about the green-haired lady. Mrs. Fry brought to Mrs. Hamilton a basket of freshly ironed musl. ins t h e day after Mr. Hamilton's departure, and immediately launched forth in a description of the greenhaired woman. "The queerest sight! though there's no denyin' she's a dreadful pretty woman." "I cannot see how a woman with green hair can be pretty," said Mrs. Hamilton. "You would the moment you saw her. But you can ask Mr. Hamilton. He saw her and knew her, too. I guess." "Are you sure?" "She spoke to him. T w a s jest as I was a comin" to the laundry an' he a corain' down the street to tako the train. 'You here?' she says. 'You are mistaken,' says he. 'Oh, yes.' she says, 'I did think,' an' she looked round at me. Mr. Hamilton looked at her pretty close, as if sort of thinkin' or studyln' of her face, an' then he spoke again, but what it was he said I didn't hear, because, of course, twan't none of my business. Besides, ho spoke too low." "Probably she was Insane." "No, I guess not. She seemed kinder troubled, though, and folks in trouble always go to uich folks as your folks. Or eise she knew him. Whichever 'twas, she was & tlce. with white lips. "What can ir mean? It is his. I gave him the set myself, and had them marked with his initials. See, this is V." "I nntf?ed it." said.Tony, quietly, "and I was sure it was his. Now, Low did it happen to be on his desk this morning, unless it dropped out j last night?" "Perhaps it was Tatil there, iiuiia-" ticed, since he went away." . "Impossible. I have dusted and put everything in order daily." Tony's habits of order were incontrovertible. "Cannot you recollect whether he spoke of missing one before he went away, Mrs. Hamilton?" "No, ife said nothing about missing one." "Then you will find that I am right," said Tony. "Mr. Hamilton was at the bank last night at about eight o'clock. He must have been retained somewhere, and will, no doubt, be here shortly. You may expect to sec him coming *jp the street at any moment," he concluded, reassuringly, for he saw that she was terribly shaken. "I hope you are right, but I have felt worried ever since-he w.ent away." "Oh. he's all right, sound as a trump. I wouldn't worry, if I were you," and Tony went down the stairs, but paused to ask. "Shall I go around to the mill and ask Mr. Carter if he has seen anything of him?" "Yes, please do, and ask'Uncle Carter to come up to see me, if Vane isn't there." "All right." and he turned away. "I wish everything were all right, but I'm afraid it isn't," he muttered. (To be continued.) Sounded That Way. Yeast—"I see 8?" Russian ice-breaking boat Is called the Ryeshtrinkoffvit'eh."

"Whether on the Atlantic or the Mediterranean shore, whether on the Biscayan or the Andalnsian coast, there seems to be ever a heavy surf booming along thei Spanish beach. Here on the extreme' north there were the same somber mountains that we had once seen when coasting between Gibraltar and Marseilles; here we saw the same stern' landscape and the same gaunt cliffs crowned with watch towers, sad-coloted like the cliffs and seeming to be stony growths out of the rocks themselves." Back at Work Again. Buffalo. N. Y., May 22nd.—(Special)— Crippled by Kidney Disease till he could not stand on his feet for the hours required at his trade, F. R. McLean, 90 East Ferry St., this city, had to quit work entirely. Now he's back at work again and he does not hesitate to give the credit to Dodd's Kidney Pills. "Yes," Mr. McLean says "I was too bad. I had to quit. I could not stand on my feet for the necessary hours. It was Kidney Disease I had, and a friend advised me to fry Dodd's Kidney Pills. I did so and .after using six boxes am completely cured and am working as steadily as before I was sick. I recommend Dodd's Pills to any one afflicted with Kidney trouble."

And, gentlemen, those things were not foreseen in the '70's. The statesmen and the public men of this country did not see what part the agricultural development of the west was going to play in the in- -d ustrial-development of the east. A n d . you may read the decisions of t h e Interstate commerce commission from the first to the last, and what is one of the greatest characteristics of those decisions? The continued inability to see the question in this large way. The interstate commerce commission never can see anything more than that the farm land of some farmer is'decreasing in value, or that some man wl.o has a flour mill with a production of fifty barrels a day is being crowded out. It never can sc?e that the destruction or impairment of farm values in this place means the building up of farm values in thac place, and that that shifting of values is a necessary incident to the industrial and manufacturing development of this country. And if we. shall give to the interstate commerce commission power to regulate rates, we shall no lunger have .our rates regulated on the statesmanlike basis on which they have been regulated in the past trj—lite rallvsay lueu, who really havo been great statesmen, who really have been great builders of empires, who have had an imagination that rivals the imagination of the greatest poet and of the greatest inventor, and who have operated with a courage and daring that rivals the courage and daring of the greatest military ^general. But we shall have our rates regulated by a body of civil servants, bureaucrats, whose besetting sin the world over is that they never can grasp a situation in a large way and with the grasp of the statesman; that they never can see the fact that they a r e confronted with a small evil; t h a t that evil is relatively small, and t h a t it cannot be corrected except by the creation of evils and abuses which are iuflnitely greater than tho one that is to be corrected."

T h e grip leaves behind it weakened vital powers, thin blood, impaired digeKtkm ami orrr-scunitivoi r~ • \ * nerves-—acondition that makes the system an easy prey to pneumonia, bronchitis, rheumatism, nervous prostration, aud even coa- Bumption. The story told by scores or" victims of the grip is substantially the same. One was tortured by terrible pains at the base of the skull; auother was left tired, faint and iu every way wretched from aiitcmiiv or scantiness of blood; another had horrible headaches, was nervous and couldn't sleep; another was loft with weak lungs, difficulty in breathing and a c u t e Lenralgia. In every case relief •was sought in vain until the great bloodbuilder and nerve-tonic, Dr. Williams' P i n k Pills, was used. For quickness nud thoroughness of action nothing is known t h a t will approach it. f Mrs. Van Scoy makes a k n t e m e n t that supports thin claim. She says : •'I had a severe attack of grip and, before I had fully recovered, rheumatism set i n a u d tormented m e for three months. I was iu a badly run-down state. Soon after it began I was so lame for x week that Lcould hardly walk. It kept growing steadily worse aud at last I h a d to give v p completely aud for t h r e e weeks I was obliged to keep my bed. My knees were so stiff I couldn't bend them, and m y hands were perfectly helpless. Then the pains began fo threaten m y heart and ' thoroughly alarmed me. " While I was suffering in this way I chanced to run across a little book that told about the merits of Dr. Williams' P i n k Pills. The statements in it impressed me and led mo to buy a box. Theso pills proved the very thing I needed. Improvement set iu as soon as I began t o take thenj, and it was vory marked by t h e time 1 had finished t h e first box.

He lost both legs in a wreck last year, and is despondent. By pouring gasoline, which she supposed to be kerosene, on the fire, Mrs. Ed. Sargent, of Fenton, was frightfully burned.

A certain shoemaker is a firm believer in "shoeology." He says: "Worn shoes go ahead of the art of fortunetelling from the lines of the hand. In one shoe, for instance, I see irresolution, changeableness, inclination to slovenliness and occasional fits of illhumor. "Show me any person's footgear after two months' wear and I will describe the character of the person. "If the soles and heels are worn evenly, then the wearer is a resolute, able business man, with a clear head, a trustworthy official or an excellent wife and mother. If the sole is worn on the outside, the wearer is inclined to adventurous, uncertain, fitful deeds, or, if a woman, to bold, self-willed, capricious tricks! ~ ' - " T h e -sote-beiftg-w+Mfl--en th<? inner side shows hesitation and weakness in a man and modesty in a woman."

I suffered for four months with extreme nervousness and lassitude. I had a sinking feeling in my stomach which no medicine seemed to relieve, and losing my appetite, I became weak and lost my vital-1 ity. In three weeks I lost fourteen pounds of flesh and felt that I must 8peedy=jcaiief i a regain jmyj health. Having heard Wine of j iui praised by-several-of-aayJ friends, I sent for a bottle and was certainly very pleased with the results. Within three days my] appetite returned and my stomach, troubled me no more. I could digest my food without difficulty and the nervousness gradually diminished. Nature performed her functions without difficulty and I am once more a happy and well woman. OLIVE JOSEPH, IraMLJLtUnttrrldftyyightcinn.

OVER FOUR MILLIONS OF DOLLARS MUST BE PAID INTO STATE TREASURY. DECISION IS SURPRISING AND EXCEPTS ONLY A GRAND T R U N K DIVISION. By an opinion handed down by Judge George P. Wanty, in the United States court this afternoon, the slate of Michigan wins a sweeping victory over the twenty-eight railway cc^paTrtFs"-wtoch opposed in the courts the collection of taxes under the ad valorem act of 1901. Only one road, tho Grand Trunk is excepted in the decision, and the excep lion is made under an old territorial acL of 1834. In mere money value up to date the cases involved $4,100,000 and the precedent that is involved affects the railways of the whole country and every state ana municipal government. It was the claim of the railways thai the ad valorem act was in violation of the fourteenth amendment of the federal constitution, and that they were being discriminated against because the general property- of the state, under the general tax law, was undervalued.

No longer ago than 1898 wheat was the principal crop in Michigan, but since that time there are three crops that outrank It in value in this state. The value of t h e principal crops raised in the state in 1903 shows that hay is the leading product of the farms, the value of that product- in the year named being $2ir.500,000. Corn comes second in the list with a value of $20,000,000, the oats yield for the year was worth $13,000,000, nnd the wheat yield was worth $11,- 000,000. The pgtato crop of the year was worth $10,000,000. The Michigan clip of wool in 1903 was worth $2,500,- 000 and was exactly equaled by the sugar beet crop of that year. The bean crop was worth $5,000,000 in 1903. while in 1S99 it was scarcely Jiioxe than, .one-halt the .-value. The value of the principal farm since 189G. In that year the total value of the crops was $4G,000,00O, while in 1903 the crops were worth $9:1,()00,000.

BLUEBEARD HOCH, CONVICTED, NOW WEEPS A N D H O W L S IN HIS CELL. HOW C R I M I N A L S A N D DISEA8E ARE SCATTERED IN T H E U N I T E D STATES. "Gone Board Crezy." "The state has gone board crazy," said Representative Petitt on the floor of the house in opposition to the bill providing for an examining and registration board for trained nurses. "We have a barber's board and a horseshoer's board and a host of other boards that are just as useless. This board would be only an added expense to the state. I am a member of tho public health committee, but I never knew when this bill \vn^ reported out." Hay's Retirement. From a high source it is learned that there will be but two changes in the cabinet within the next few months. Jolm Hay, according ~Uj-44iis information, is to retire aa secretary of state and Paul Morton as secretary of the navy. In spite of the repeated reports that Mr. Hay would- relinquish the state department portfolio, considerable surprise is felt at this latest apparently authentic news, for the reason that the denials from his friends have been most positive. It is believed, however, that on the advice of his physicians he has determined to step out of public life in order to avert the serious consequences which continued activity might result in. That Mr. Hay, while improved in health, is by no means a well man, is, admitted by .his • intimates. There is absolutely no intimation as to who is likely te succeed him. p questions even fri The case Grand Trunk, but the Grand T t THOTCRKETST - Whisky may not be "property." according to the Kansas supreme court. but it has made many a man feel as though he owned-the earth. One of the, sons cf the late William C. Whitney is building a $75.0in> fence around his country home. The tax rate on fences must be low where he lives. _ This proposition to have a "sane Fourth of July" ought -surely to be approved, if only for the reason~lhat the other kind drives so •many people crazy. - Burglars have just robbed the home of an author. They escaped without losing anything, as the author was not at home when they called.

The Chicago Inter Ocean notes that the modern "sucker" is not exclusive- 1y a. rural product. The innocent c'tv man will bite at a bare hook when a. farmer is suspicious. The Boston Globe asserts that "using the typewriter is in many respects a kindergarten exercise." It may be so in Boston, but not all laces are so cultured. as it is given in the TndTvTdual case, the Detroit, Grand Haven & Milwaukee— defence is also made on the basis of an act passed in 1834. It appears, according to the judge's finding, that the I-resent Detroit. Grand Haven & Milwaukee company is a successor of the old Detroit & Pontiac Railway company, and that it succeeds therefore to the old. act, by which the tax assessment is limited to an amount not in excess of_ 1^ per cent of its capital stock. The" court, finds in this regard that the ad valorem act of 1901 does not .impair the old act and tho injunctionagaitist- Uie-aiui+ttH'-genei-al^pra.y-ed for in the Grand Trunk bill is granted. The cases will probably be carried to the Uni'ted States supreme court.

This is mixe* with diluted oil of vitriol and from this solution a product is obtained which is'alum. Alum la cheap; costg about, two cents* a pound, and baking powder made with this Mineral-Acid sells from 10 to 25c. a pound. (2) Bone-Acid, or Phosphate, Is the basis of phosphate baking powders and the process frs fully described in the patents issued to a large manufacturer of a phosphate powder. The U. S. Patent Office Report gives a full and exact description, but the following extract is enough: • •'Btfrned bones, afterJ being ground, are put into freshly diluted oil of vitriol a^d with continual stirring and in the following proportion," etc. From this Bone-Acid phosphate baking, powders are made; such powders sell from 20 to 30 cents a pound. (3) Cream of Tartar exists in all ripe grapes., and flows with the juice from the press in the manufacture of wine. After the wine is drawn off the tartar is scraped trom the cask, boiled with water, and crystals of Cream of Tartar, white and very pure, separate and are collected. It differs in no respect from the form in which it originally existed in the grape. Cream of Tartar, then, while the most expensive, is the only ingredient that should be used in a baking powder to act upon the soda, as Its wholesomefress is beyond—question. Cream—of Tartar baking powders sell at. about Such are the facts, and every one, careful of the health of the family, should remember this rule:---Baldn# powders selling from 10 to 25 cents a pound are made of Mineral-Acids; these selling from 20 to 30 cents of Bone-Acid: and those from 40 to 50 cents of Cream of Tartar made fron; grapes. c o m m o n . $20<?i27.

Milo Keep's Alibi. For the first time since Milo Keep, the man charged with the murder of \ Bert Miller two weeks ago, was locked up, his friends and other people were permitted to see him Sunday night. When interviewed Keep declared his innocence. "I swear to God that I i am not the murderer of Bert Miller," he said. "Miller was my friend and why should I take- his life. We have always been the best of friends. T will prove my innocence by an alibi. | I will have to bring a woman into j the case which I had hoped to keep from • dragging before the public. I will not call upon her to testify unless I see that I am to get a life sentence in prison. I would take a short term in Jackson first. As to my wife, 1 marrk'd her because I thought she loved me. She proposed to me. She kept after me so long that 1 felt she could not live without me." The woman whom Milo Keep says he is trying to shield was with him the night ot the murder.

Hoch Convicted. • Johann Hoch, whose marriages and nurders make Bluebeard's record trivial by comparison, was on Saturday afternoon found guilty of wife murder in ihe first degree, and commended to the hangman. The convicted wife poisoner, who all through his trial seemed to regard the charge against him as a joke, and its possible outcome- a matter of no consequence, Koemed to realize for the first time the situation in which he is placed. He spent the greater pari of the day in his cell weeping, and at times his sobs were audible throughout the greater part of the jail. His lamentations brought scanty sympathy from his fellow prisoners, who jeered at him and constantly urged him to "brace up and die like a'man." Several persons called during the day, but. Hoch would not talk lo them for more than a minute ' at a -time. He' walked constantly up and down his cell, heaping malediclions up courts, juries and the police. When he ceased this he would sit down, bury his face in his hands ami weep. Oniy Half a Baby. A man who has recently traveled in Ireland says that in _a .poor Httle cottage of Two rooms he saw a married couple and seven children. Hearing a baby cry, he asked to see it, and explained t h a t , h e took an interest in babies, having one at home. The infant was produced for inspection, and the mother asked, proudly: "Is yours as big as that, sir?" To which he replied. "I think it is a little bigger." Instantly the instincts of the mother were roused, and, tossing her head, she said. "So well it might be; that's only half of ours; the other half is with God. We had twins." Pala Fights To the Death Fierce fighting has been, geing on (he last, two weeks on the island of Jolo between the outlaw Moro chief. Pala, with COO well armed followers, and iroops under t h e - p e r s o n a l command of Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood. Pala's losses thus fq,r are r>00 killed, while those of Gen. Wood are seven killed and nineteen wounded. Pala nnd his remaining followers, in accordance with Moro tradition, prefer deaih to capture. Pala was *i noteil slave trader and warrior when the Americans occupied tho Islands. Lalor he escaped with his followers to the island of Pula Sekar. near Borneo. One of Pala's leaders deserted and took refuge in the British settlement at Lahad. Pala. discovering his whereabouts, landed with a following and demanded of the British magistrate that he turn the deserter over to him. The demand was not complied with, and Pala ordered a massacre. Twenty- five persons, including several Britons were killed. Pala escaped to the island of Jolo nnd organized the present uprising. A Fable. "The dangers of sensational journalism are many," observed the philosophical fly; "and yet it suits t h e taste of some persons to the extent that it becomes a positive appetite with them. Now, there's my brother," he continued, pointing to a struggling, buzzing unfortunate. "He's so badly stuck on that yellow sheet that he's ail tangled up and doesn't know which end he's on!"—Cleveland Leader. S I M P L E W A L L DECORATIONS. George D.

The styles of home decorations have completely changed in ^ e last few years, and it is p l e a s a n t \ o say that they have changed for the better. Time was when we hung monstrous patterns printed on paper against our walls, and considered them more or less pleasantly. It would hardly be fair to s t y - t h a t we considered them beautiful or artistic. But they were the vogue and were put on. The time has come when, with our better methods for interior decoration, better effects can be secured. In wall coverings, whether they be of paint, or of kalsomine, or of Alabastine— whatever the material used to cover the wall—the thing desired iss that which has the greatest covering power, as well as permanency and beauty of color, Alabastine, a wall covering ground from Alabaster rock —which means a hard white rock—is the ideal covering for a wall. The most beautiful wall decorations in the v.'orld are those which are laid on with the brush. The mural designs in our large public buildings, and the frescoed designs in the large cathedrals and churches, have a perma- * V interntt for 10 years, has committed suicide, and his books are being examined. Dr. J. H. Hollander, who was sent to San Domingo 10 investigate fiscal conditions, is at Washington conferring with the president. Ho reports all quiet, and says the officials and people seem satisfied with the arrangements made as to the customs. Dr. Osier's attention is called t a l i h a case of Henry Conrad, carpenter, of Petersburg, lnd. Henry is '12, but when he went home to dinner Thursday his wife presented him with a pair of twin boys. To the neighbors he gleefully exclaimed: "These two kids give the lie to Osier that a man ain't worth » continental-after he's GO" nency and air-art of which lwall pouter is but a cheap imitation. These mural schemes and frescoed desi^fcs can be brought within the reach of the every day home. They can be done with Alabastine. which is permanent in its coloring. It does not rub off, and it has the soft effect of pastelle. A great many people defer the redecorating of their rooms not only because of the expense but because ~Gl the discomfort of it. With Alabastine there need be no discomfort and there can be no muss, for all t h a t is needed is to lay a sheet or canvas on the floor, have your man come ii. with a pail, make the solution and simply brush it on the wall. That is all ther^ ** is to it, and the room is perfect!/' clean and vlioroughly renovated. < > * A; M ' " ' ,*'••'jn**i& a&ii-w,*, **J*J^V> 11» . 5 ..V M - ^ ' w , ."^Jf > \ ^ >| r/v-\ • * . . * » * : « & w Sftl • , ^ 'ttf'L. :S.JWA [E LEGI8LATUHE. • • I ' M l • « -. ^ v . •• . .. .

If this appeal fails, the case probably will be carried to the state department at Washington, and international complications may disturb the friendly relations now existing between the United States and Canada. Retaliatory measures would force hundreds of Canadians now occupying more or less high salaried positions in American cities either to . become American citizens or to throw up such positions and return to their own "TalTeTr - **—-"° = — The first immediate effect of the agitation for the d'e port at ion of Pere Marquette officials is tho closing of the storekeeper's department of th'e road in St. Thomas.

The attack of Thomas W.

Moved by many to have helped in putting the Merchants* Trust Co. out of business. The Merchants' Trust Co. had' a capital stock of $(100,000 and owed depositors about $2.0(KI,000. An examination of the company's affairs Wits made by the state banking department on December 2?, last. The report of the state banking department showed that, the company's book, surplus of $1.198,7(17 had been reduced by the examiners te) $1,074,548. While1 the examiners hael increased the value, of some of the securities held by the company, they threw out some others as valueless and reduced the valuation of others. The company is trustee of a $-4,000,- 000 consolidated mortgage . on the property e>f the Hudson Valley Railway Co.. which is a consolidation of trolley lines around Albany, Troy, Sara toga"1""allcPLake George.

H A T C H A u t h o r of " T h e B a n k T r a g e d y " Copyright, 189¾. by Lee and Shepard CHAPTER H I . Cashier'3 Matters at the Bank. Constance was left a prey to anxious thoughts while Tony w.ent on toward the mill building, a long, lowbuilt structure on the river bank. Tony asked to see Mr. Carter, and was directed to his office, a comfortable enough apartment at the rear of the /building. "Mr. Carter, have you seen . Mr. Hamilton. this morning—or last night?" "Seen Mr. Hamilton! What do you rrean, young man? You ought to know I haven't without asking," he i>aid irritably. "Mr. Hamilton was at the bank last nighriTiat'rf all, saTH'TTony:—*= "And never came near the mill! Look here, Henderson!" he called. "Vane has come, and We can get him to srraighten that consignment matter." '"By George, I'm glad of ft. You know, Carter. I said this morning he was likely to walk in at any time." "But it seems he hasn't," said Tony, coolly, amused, in spite of his anxiety, at their readiness to shuffle? off their resj>omsibilities. And then he told them the facts as he had done to Mrs. Hamilton. "By George! That looks bad, don't it, Carter?" "Yes; where can he be now?" "That's the question. Perhaps he came back after something, and didn't -want to trouble Constance by going there. She, of course, would object slanee. Question him about his journeys, where he goes. You have a right to know." "I had decided to, uncle; for, as yon say, 1 have the right to know." As I have said, the time did not pass very quickly, for time lags to hearts wearied or worried. Constance dispatched her letter to the Boston address, and inquiries were made in Grovedale concerning Mr. Hamilton's appearance there on the twenty-secend of May, which was the time alleged by young Osborn as the date when he saw and spoke to him. But no one. had seen him, or any person particularly resemblUng him. Some people in Grovedale discredited Osborn's statement, while others ~-trvtrpt-ed- that"he-tmret hav-e been mis* taken, though, without doubt, they taul, he thought he was correct in j o k i n g it.." On the other hand, many believed that harm had come to the cashier after he left the building, while the bank officials thought the matter quite serious enough to call a n.eeting and look over the books, deposits and collaterals of the bank. People who had money in the savings institution got wind of the matter, and the passbooks began to come in s-.o rapidly the directors publicly announced tha: all should be attended to in due season, but that no irregularities had thus far been discovered, nor did they expect to find any. Mr. Hamilton was expected in three days now, when, no doubt; matters would settle in their old place. The bank examiner, meanwhile, would in any t o h i s g o i n g away agaiiTT^dhFlniDwsr case"soon b e t l t c n r r it. He knows very well, too, that hts" mysterious journeys vex her, as well they might." •'Where does he go. Carter, every year in May?" "You know as well as I do. I only hope there's no danger in it. that's all. Seems .as if there must be. or he would tell Constance." "Mr. Carter, your niece would like Ui have you step up to the house." TLamilton'sbondsmen. Carter, Henderson and Deane, were responsible men. And thus the matter rested, if it could be said to rest when half a dozen bank officials, aided by young Osborn, were industriously turning over all the bank books, looking up collaterals' and deposits, which at' one point showed a difference of several thousand dollars. But Uhere were one or two erasures in the balance sheets, •Now, madam, have you any idea where your husband has gore?" v$ '•Worried, hey! Well. Henderson, | you just fix that matter as we talked, j It seems we must, get along without j "Vane a while longer. I hope nothing j has happened to him, as you say. I'll just go up, to see Constance. If' we only knew the nature of his business away, or his whereabouts, 1 tit we don't;" and with a worried air Mr. ('alter followed Tony. Constance was greatly excited when lie reached the house. "Oh. uncle, something dreadful has happened to Vane!" she .exclaimed, as .soon as she suv him. "Oh. r.o. Constance. 1 guess not. I guess he had business at the bank, something connected, with the deposit vault in Boston. He may have been hurried, and didn't want to alarm you. ' . "But after he had spoken to Tony. •uncle, he must have known r should "worry." "Yes, so you would. Vane ought to have thought of that, but men are Inconsiderate. Very inconsiderate men are. my dear." "Vane isn't. He would know I would woTry. I am sure something lias happened to him." 'Cavil you write anywhere to find ou.7" "He gave me an address in Boston, .the same 1 always vfytt* to when he fli away, hut it amounts to but little." • " W h y ? " - " "Because, as Vane explained, he miglr be miles away, though in the course; of a week a letter so addressed was pretty sure to reach him." "Well.*a week will soon pass, and, no doubt,'A'ane will return safe and 1Mb But let mc ail vise you, Condi fficv.lt to understand, and yet which might be made to come right in' the hands of the bank examiner. It was too soon to tay there was anything wrong. No reply came to the letter Mrs. Hamilton had written, and the air by Tuesday night, which was just two weeks from the time Mr. Hamilton lei< Grovedale, was rife with a hun- • ivd rumors. Ar the station when tiv train whirled in. tho platform was crowded .vith expectant people. Mrs. j Hamilton with her children and NJr. ] Curu-r were all there., wailing, and trying- lo look' placid and cheerful, but to little purpose. About twenty people alighted, but Vane was not ! am mg them. "'-{', will come to-morrow, sure," said Mr. Carter, cheerfully. "Come, Constance. "See where you are stepping. Ciare. For Heaven's sake, look cheerful, Constance" (,in an undertone this was said). "How can 1 look cheerful?" asked Constance, drawing down her veil. "Will fto come to-morrow. Uncle Carter?" asked Perley. "I think so." . "Then what did the man at the station mean by saying he had gone off with the green-headed woman?" "Given-headed woman? what do you mean. Perley?" "I don't know. That's what he said; I heard him. Do people ever have green hair?" "I never heard of such a thing. The man was talking so to plague you." "No, he was talking to another man and I overheard him." "You must have understood with your elbows. Che*? up. Constancy Vane will be here to-morrow; If not, the day after, surely," he said, kindly^ for he noticed that she was deadly pale. "But what could the boy have meant about the green-haired woman?" "Doubtless if is known that a woman with curiously tinted hair spoke to Vane on the street the morning he] went away. Sin; was a stranger and traveling north, but they left town about the tame; time." "Oh, yes, that explains it. The man was joking. 1 Ihought so." The bank examiner was sent for, and a detective engaged to look after the missing man. Mrs. Hamilton was very much unnerved when Mr. Bruce was shown into,the sitting room, and seeing this, he did not immediately open the business of his call, but chatted pleasantly with Clare, who was just beginning to take music lessons, and was struggling with her "scales." "Fine children, madam. Little girl takes after her father, the boy after you, I see." "They are good children, and their father is a good man," she said proudly. ' | "I do not doubt H; and now, if you I please, we will go over this matter as j carefully and calmly as possible." j . "Very well. Clare, you may take j your brother into the garden." 1 As soon as the children went out, , Mrs. Hamilton turned an expectant] face toward the detective. j "Now, madam, ha,ve you any idea I where your husband has gone?" I "None whatever." j "I am told that every year since ; your marriage he has been away in the month of May and stayed two; weeks." I "Once he stayed but ten days; at J another time he was gone fifteen." "Have you" any knowledge of his life previous to his marriage?" "I know his birthplace. It was Elmira, N. Y. I knew his mother. He was an only child. His father died - w h e n h p w n s five y e a r g ^ p f j t g e . T h e ; fhmily was_pnce exceedingly wealthy,. I have heard, but Vane, when I married" him, was only moderately wellto- do, as we say here." "How does your husband appear] when he goes away?" j "Sometimes he seems troubled, at other times quite cheerful. But this time he appeared more worried than . usual. He seemed very absent-mind- J ed, and he talked in his sleep a good > deal the night before he went away." j "Ah!" Mr. Bruce appeared interested. "What did he talk about?" i —•*Of "carTylng Irea'vyloads, and Tier complained that nobody would help' him. "I can't stand it. It is too much, too hard,' he said over and over again. I thought he referred to his business.1 which is very difficult to manage, for' my uncle and Mr. Henderson are both' disposed to leave all the details to Vane." '•Probably yen -are right. What else did he say?" .Mrs. Hamilton blushed and hesitated and looked at his note-book. Mr..' Bruce promptly closed it and put it in his pocket. ''You were saying, 1 thin!':." he saul. suggestively; but still he hesitated. '"After nil, dreams amount to nothing— .- rray scraps of fancies, conversations and a confused jumbling up of what ii, would be too much to call ideas." "I understand you," she said, keenly "You think what he said may be of consequence. I think so. too; but please lo recollect thiii when uiv him-- band spoke a womna's name in his sleep I did not mistrust his honor,,' nor do I now." ••P.erhai,., you will tell me what he said." looking her squarely in the face, for he perceived he had a woman, of nerve find eommonsense to deal with. "I will. He said 'I.enora—Nora—a pretty name.' " "Do you know anyone named Lenora?" , . "No. I do not. and I have never heard my husband speak of anyone h\ tha.? name." ."Still you think you can explain it. 1 can see that/' he said. "Perhaps that yould be too much to say." Mrs. Hamilton arose, went to : the bookcase, and took therefrom a volume of Poe's poems. "He liked them very much., ami I found a beck-mark at "Lenore." " Mr. Bruce took the book and read v ' t h nor unattractive accent: i ••How 'shall the ritual tho-i !>e r o a d ? - t h e ; requiem how t o s u n s ? Ry you. Uy yours, the e\ il eye: by yea;'* t h e s l a n d e r o us t o n g u e i That did to death the i n i i D i n u v , that j •died, aad died so young." ] "Poe's verse is very melodious, but j that is one of his poorest poems. Still it might have haunted your husband's mind." N After a few more questions. Mr. Biuce took, his leave, assuring Mrs. Hamilton that, without doubt, tidings would be got of her husband before long. Then he went straight to the Essex House to learn what he could about the strange lady who had spoken to Mr. Hamilton on the street, for he had hoard the meeting commented upon. *' 'To be continued.) HAD TO 8PEAK P L A I N L Y . Cashier's Somewhat Stilted Politeness Misunderatoctf. Such a dainty and dignified little old lady was she, and so different in every way from those who go to Chestnut street banks to have checks cashed, that tho paying teller felt that he could not use the general phraseology of financial institutions when dealing with her. She approached the grafted window almost timorously and, on taking the check from a very old-fashioned reticule which hung about her wrist, presented it to the teller. It called for a large amount, and somehow he could not bring himself to utter the brusque "How'll y' have it?" she was so much a picUire of the olden days, .of those times when phrases were gently turned, when "lady" had a real significance. In trying to be formal he became merely stilted, and murmured, "Denomination, please?" The prim old lady looked up in a puzzled fashion, smiled and then said: "Why, Presbyterian. I didn't know that made any difference in banks." The teller had, after all, to drift into the l a n g u a g e of the c o m m o n p l a c e - Philadelphia Press. Turned the Tables. . A well known woman novelist tells a good story which rather goes againtjt herself. While speaking at a working girls' club she gave the members some good advice, asking them how much they earned and counseling them to put by a certain atnou.it from their weekly wages. A few nights later there was a ring a: the novelists own doorbell and a visitor was announced.

Wlien 4Jie Garfield report on the * business methods of the packers appeared, after eight months' Investigation, it was severely criticised and roundly denounced. After three months of publicity it is significant tfcat those who attempted to discredit it have failed to controvert the figures contained in that exhaustive document. The public is beginning to notice this omission, and the feeling is rapidly growing that, the sensational charges out of which' the "Pe:f Investigation" arose were without- foundation. If the official statements of the report are susceptible of contradiction, a good many people are rowasking why the facts and figures a r e not furnished to contradict them. The truth seems to be that most of the charges contain unfounded sensational assertions. A flagrant example of this appeared in a recent article In an Eastern magazine, to the effect that "forty Iowa banks were forced to close their doors in 1303-4 by the Beef Trust's manipulation of cattle prices." Chief Clerk Cox, of the banking department of the Iowa State Auditor's office, has tabulated the list of banks given in the magazine article i and has publicly denounced the state- | ment as utterly untrue. He gives I separately the reasons for each fail- ; ure mentioned and officially states ' that they have been caused by unwise i speculations and by reckless banking J methods. It may bo well to suspend j judgment upon the packers until tho : charges against them are proved. . : - ^ , • • In Record Time.

On the contrary', our digestive apparatus is like our teeth, characteristically omnivorous. Pepsin is ouly one of at least a dozen different ferments, some of which can only act in alkaline medium, others only in an acid medium, otbers only In the presence of such and such a body, others only In its absence.

The death dances of the Tibetan mystery plays, one of which is performed on the last three days ,of the year, are called "the ceremony of the sacrificial body of the dread year," says the Kansas City Journal. The effigy of a man, made out of dough, as lifelike as possible, and having inside a distinct heart and all the entrails filled with a red fluid, is placed by four cemetery ghouls In sight of the humorous spectators in the center of the yard, and a t once bands of skeleton ghosts rush upon the corpse to attack it. This is the time to display the necromatlc power of Lamaism over the evil spirits. Monks and lamas come forth and go through a series of ceremonies, the magic effect of which keeps the fiends away. But a more formidable devil with great horns and possessed of superior powers makes his appearance and takes the field. Whereupon a saint or an incarnation _ of Buddha himself goes to the rescue, sprays flour on the enemy, makes mystic signs and utters incantations. The skeleton ghosts and t h e big fiend grovel before and implore mercy. He graciously yields to their supplications and allows them to partake of a sacramental meal. While they kneel before him he gives to each one of them a little flour to eat and a drink out of a vessel of holv water.

OF Smashed Sir Hiram Maxim's Watch, hut Couldn't Restore It. Sir Hiram Maxim, the inventor of the famous firearm bearing his name. tells of a misfortune that befell him at the Mont-Boron Palace hotel, where he was staying, says a Nice correspondent of the Kansas City Journal. .owing to his too great faith in the abilities of a juggler. J'A few nights an:o." he says, "a conjurer known on the Riviera as Prof. Ben Ailbey, appeared at Mont-Boron Palace hotel. He asked that s*ome one should give him a watch; what he wished to do was to smash that watch and return it intact to the owner. 1 very foolishly handed him mine, which was a very high-priced one, and had been especially made for me in Switzerland. The first part of the experiment succeeded a d m i r a b l y , - b u t the last part was a total failure, notwithstanding all the professor's skill the watch "persisted- ~ in—remaining in a smasjhed condition and is still a smashed and worthless watch. "Moral—If you have a valuable watch don't lend it to a juggler." Cheerfulness As a Tonic. Cheerfulness, -says Ruskin, i$ just as natural to the heart of a man in strong health as color to his cheek; ; and, wherever there is habitual gloom, j there must be either bad air, unwhole- ! some food, improperly severe labor, | or erring habits of life. Cheerfulness is the best promoter of health, remarks Addison. Repinings and murmurings of the heart give impercepti ible strokes to those delicate fibres of I which the vital parts are composed, ; and wear out the machine. Cheerfuli ness is as friendly to the mind as to I the body.

Comraunitles to be benefitted, producers, manufacturers or shippers to be aided represent the pieces used. Every possible move is studied for its effect on the general result by skilled traffic managers. A false move in the making of freight rates may mean the ruin of a city, of a great manufacturing interest, of an agricultural community. Railroads strive to build up ah these so that each may have an equal chance in the sharp competition of business. So sensitive to this rivalry are the railroads that In order to build up business along their lines they frequently allow the shipper to practically dictate rates. Rate making has been a matter of development; of mutual concessions for mutual benefit. That is why the railroads of the United States have voluntarily made freight rates so much lower in this country than they are on the government-owned and operated rail- .

Neither do we hesitate to say that many of these infantile deaths are occasioned by the use of narcotic preparations. Drops, tinctures andisoothing-syrups sold^^ for dhUdren's complaints contain more or less opium, or piorphine. They are, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons. In any quantity they stupefy, retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death. Castoria operates exactly the reverse, but you must see that it bears the signature of Chas. H.

Mr. Bruce, for reasons of his own. chose to fe,o to Miss Talbert for information, and was amply rewarded. He was told in as few words ajr possible all that wa&-k»own aboutthe strange lady. Finally, Miss Talbert,. asking to be excused for a moment, left the rcom and returned almost immediately with a fine, hemstitched handkerchief with an intricate embroidered design in the corner. "And what may that be?" asked the puzzled detective. "Her handkerchief?" "Yes, she dropped it in t h e hall as «he went out. One of the girls saw it drop and called to her, but she did not hear." "What is the name? It is Hebrew to me." "Mary." a n inward nature.

"Perhaps you had better say nothing about my inquiries," he said to Miss Talbert upon leaving. "Very well. I will remember your caution," she answered, and she •watched with some curiosity, as he w e n t down the street and turned the corner. "He is going to the bank," she thought; and she was right. Arrived there, he found that the bTisiness~being carried on was all of ' tective, with alert gaze. The commissioner nodded. "It purports to be. I can't tell you what was in it, though. The contents have not been made public except that it exonerates Osborn of any complicity in the matter of which he might be suspected." Bruce went directly to the president's house, found him alone, and stated his errand. The president showed him the letter at once. It ran: "Mr. Hastings: You are no doubt afraid that the savings bank funds are stolen, but such is not the case -as_£ar a s . I kuow_„..

As for Osborn. he is as honest as the day. I am unable to return at present, but shall do so as soon as I can. Show this letter to my wife." "A curious letter," said the detective, staring blankly at the coiling. "Ye?, he must have seen the newspaper reports. What does the letter mean, do you think?" "There seem to be two meanings, and which flatly contradict -each "other. He throws suspicion on Osborn. and yet says he is as honest as the day.

"True." said President Hastings, looking puzzled. "It is a strange case, taken in all its/aspects." "Mr. Hamilton was, I hear, a man much respected." "He was, and his wife still has implicit trust in him." Remembering Mrs. Hamilton's manner, Mr. Bruce could not perfectly agree- witb-h+m,but eaid nothiug What Fatigue Really I*. ^Tiredness is as natural a condition of life as Is the ability to perform, work, writes Andrew Wilson in the Illustrated London News.

But the supply of energy is not constant. Hence, after a certain exhaustion of the store it originally possessed, the human engine demands more coal and water.

Benjamin Wilson, a highly respected resident of this place, came very near, losing his wife and now that she is cured and restored to good health his gratitude knows no bounds. He says: "My wife has suffered everything with Sugar Diabetes. She has b«en sick four years. She doctored with two good doctors but kept growing worse. The doctors said she cuuld not live. She failed from 2U0 pounds down to 130 pounds. This was her weight when she began to use Dodd's Kidney Pills, and now she weighs L90, is well and feeling stronger every day.

"They sat together and the woman was talkative, but Hamilton did not say much, at least when I saw them. She bought a ticket on the train to Portland, but I did not notice her when I went my last rounds. The last l saw of Hamilton was at Portland depot. He did not appear to nptice me, though I looked him full in the jface." "Where was the woman, I wonder?" asked Mr. Hastings, after listening to the extract. "That may or may not be difficult -to Warn," said -the 'detective, rising to leave. Mr. Hastings arose also. "Mr. Bruce," said he, "the notice as it reads now offers but $500 reward, but I am empowered to offer $1,000 n.ore, making the sum $1.500,.. though for the present no change will be made in the wording, unless you advise it." "I do not'advise it. A change would alarm Hamilton, showing that suspicions had been awakened. To show that he is thought to have absconded with funds of the bank would alarm him directly and put him beyond our reach. But he might even return if he thought nothing was suspected, if it should be authentically stated by you. for instance, that upon examination everything had been found correct.

Still," recollecting himself, "a new phase of the matter may arise any moment. Anything look like complicity on the part of Osborn?" "No; the president found a letter tinder his door this morning, without •cn'y postmark. I t relates to Osborn, I believe."

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound to sick women decided to give it a trial. I felt so discouraged that I had little hope of recovery, and when I began to feel better, after the second week, thought it only meant temporary relief; but to my great surprise I found that I kept gaining, while the tumor lessened in size " The Compound continued to build up my\ general health and the tumor seemed to b » absorbed, until, in seven months* the tumorwas entirely gone and I a well woman. I a m so thankful for my recovery that I ask you to publish my letter in newspapers, so other women may know of the wonderful curative powers of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound."

If there is to be any readjustment his excellency wants to name all the men who are to do the assessing, and there Is evidence in his talk that if the senate, like the house, passes the bills in euch a way that the tax commission, as at present organized, will name'the figures at which the railroads are to be taxed in the future, he will veto the bills, and the roads will again have to be taxed under the old law, which. has been sustained in the federal court at Grand Rapids and under which the railroads owe the state over $5,000,- 000.

' Advises Peace. President Roosevelt on Saturday had a conference with Count Cassini, the Russian ambassador, and expressed the earnest hope that Russia would forthwith conclude peace with Japan. Prolongation of. the war, he believes, will not result in victory for the Russian arms, ami can only serve to increase Japan's indemnity and render more difficult the drafting of a treaty of peace which the czar, as well as the mikado, can sign.

One of the czar's most influential ministers declared on Sunday that the emperor had not yet changed his position with regard to the prosecution of the war, on account of the destruction of Vice-Admiral Rojestven^ ky's fleet. THE LEGISLATURES CHICAGO A WONDER CITY. The Galbralth bill giving the tax commission the right to equalize between raJlroa* assessments and those of general property went through the nouae,' 66 to 24. The railroad men wanted this bill passed because they figure that under its provisions their taxes would be reduced. They were more than ever anxious that the bill should pass after the federal court at Grand Rapids declared that the present ad valorem tax law is constitutional. There have been some queer shifts of sentiment on this measure since' It was first introduced. At first it looked as if it' would slide through easily. Then came the . announcement that Gov. Warner was opposed to it, un less the Lovell bill in the senate was changed so that the present tax commission would not do the equalizing. Apparently the governor had the railroads in his trap with the announcement that they must pay the state the back taxes they owe before Jie state would let up on them, but now the railroad lobbyists have the grin on their side. The senate committee on taxation has been holding up the Lovell bill, which would next year reduce Only Four Cities in the World Ahead of I t Chicago In 1905 is the, fourth city n the world in point of population and wealth, says Leslie's Weekly. The only towns which lead it are London, New York and Paris.. Canton is sometimes assigned a larger population, but this is estimated, for there has never been any census taken of its population. Berlin has just crossed the 2,000,000 mark in inhabitants, but It is safe to assume that Chicago is ahead of the German metropolis. It is likely to keep ahead, notwithstanding the wonderful growth of that capital, unexampled in Europe's annals. Nearly all the world's great cities —Paris, Berlin, St. Petersburg, Vienna, Madrid and others—are far inland. Even London, the nearest to deep water of all Europe's great capitals, is over sixty miles distant from the sea. New York is the only city of commanding importance fn any civilized country which is In sight of the ocean. Chicago feels that it will some time have" the same preminence in the many-or St. Petersburg in Ttussia. It is growing faster than New York, has several suburbs which it expects to -absorb- within the next five or ten years and figures that it will pass New York by 1950. Ten or fifteen years prior to that date New York will have passed London, so that if Chicago ever beats the metropolis on the Hudson she will be the ^.greatest of the world's cities, as she is already the most marvelous of them in her sudden rise and swift expansion. the tax commission to three members.

Thus far jthe revenge play of the senators arid representatives from cttte3 which lost in the fight for tho state fair to prevent the passage of the bill providing the usual $10,000 appropriation for the fair has been successful. Senators Martindale and Doherty went before the senate agricultural committee, which hat; the bill in charge, and urged that it be reported out, but Senator Seeley, the chairman, who comes from Pontiac, which lost the. fair,t and Senator RusseJl, of Kent county, which wants a slice for the Western Michigan fair, succeeded in holding the bill up. Their plea was that there Is to be a hearing on the matter next Tuesday. As the legislature is to quit work next Wednesday night, this may mean that the bill will be lost in the closing rush. Rep. Lovell, of Berrien, introduced a bill to provide for an inquiry by the future- state highway commissioner i n t o t h e cost of a trap rock quarry lathe upper peninsula, a prison for 1,000 convicts adjacent and the cost of transportation of crushed stone for good roads to various counties of the state. The commissioner is to report to the next legislature. The idea or the bill is that so often exploited by Rep. Merritt of Detroit Gov. Warner has sent the name of H. S. Earle as highway commissioner to the senate.

According to an unofficial report, Rear-Admiral Enquist asks for 14 days' time in •which to repair, coal and provision his vccsels. I t ' i s said further that he alleges that the ships are unseaworthy and are damaged below the water line. Rear-Admiral Train will probably -appoint a board to investigate the condition of the Russian vessels. Both he and Rear-Admiral Enquist are working in •'hdfrmony.

Run on a Flint Bank. ~Afun on the Union Trust ami Sa". ings bank of Flint, resulting from a rumor the source of which cannot be traqed, was started Wednesday afternoon and was in full swing Thursday. More than 100 depositors drew out their money before the bank closed and Thursday morning a crowd of between 200 and 300 assembled in front of tho bank waiting for its doors to Call Him Coward. Indignation against Rear Admiral Nebogatoff is growing in St. Petersburg. The epithets "coward" and "traitor" are coupled with his name, especially since the receipt of the Tokio dispatches showing that his surrender was not in the heat of battle, but with the land close under his lee to which his crews could have escaped after the destruction of the ships. Ugly Btories are circulating of the demoralization and even treachery of the crews of several of the Russian ships during the battle and it is even said that the crew of the battleship Orel bound their officers and hoisted the white flag. open. Theofflcers anTt"srtockholders of the bank, who include some of the wealthiest men of the city, declare that the institution was never in better financial condition than at present and that all deposits will be paid on demand. Offers of assistance were received from Detroit and Jackson and many local merchants and manufacturers were ready to draw their money out of their banks and deposit it with the Union Trust and Savings. The Durant-Dort Co. offered to transfer all its accounts to this bank if the money is needed. It. is thought that the run will subside after the people understand the situation. toric G e f m a n t o w n .

Admiral Dewey accords to Admiral Togo full credit for his patience in waiting for the Russians until he could attack them just where he Wanted them, for the perfect preparedness of his fleet, the superb gunnery of his men and for the conspicuously brave and brilliant manner in which the attack was directed and executed, but he is firm in the belief that If it had not been, for the inexcusable blunders of the Russian commander his fleet would have inflicted far heavier damage to the Japanese. Even had Rojestvensky shown a mastery of the situation approaching that of Togo the Japanese probably would have been the victors owing to superior marksmanship, but some of the fast Russian ships would have escaped to menace Japan's communication with the. mainland and threaten Japanese com-' jaerce. New York scientist declares the Japa •re of negro descent. Leo. Flelschman, 17, missing from his New York home for a year, for whom a reward of $1,000 was offered by his distracted parents, has been discovered serving as a cadet on board the naval receiving ship Franklin, off Norfolk, Va. He says he ran away to be independent. The action of the state military board in ordering the mustering out of Company C, M. N. G., stationed in Saginaw, east side, has caused a 3trong protest to go to Gov. Warner. More lobbying has been done in the past few days on this matter than on any state action this year. Former Gov. Bliss has joined In the movement. The company has been in existence for thirty-two years and its rolls contain the names of many of Saginaw's prominent citizens. Incidentally they give an explanation for the profusion of military titles that for years have been bantered about by "mutual-admiration-society" Saglnawians. In no city in the state are there so many "colonels," "captains," etc., etc., prefixed to the names of business and professional men as here, and it is true that a muster call could draw out a full-sized battalion of what is now generally termed "feather bed" generals, Saved His Life. Willard Greer, aged 10, was rescued from drowning at Gull lake after being under water ten minutes. The boy, with his two brothers, was fishing from the deck of the steamer Garland when the rocking of the boat pitched him into the water. His young brothers were ten minutes finding a man and bringing him to the rescue. John Adams was told of the affair, and after a search located the body in seven feet of water. The boy was dragged out by the hair', and came to life after half an hour of hard work on the part of his rescuer. His life was several times despaired of and he was unconscious until morning.

This luscious berry, which to-day we so much enjoy, was peddled about the streets of ancient Grecian and Roman cities by hucksters, many centuries in the past. Virgil sings of it in his pastoral poems, and Ovid mentions it in words of praise. The cultivated strawberry plant reached Europe about the year 1712, but attracted little attention and made little progress until about 1750 or 1760, when another kind than those previously, raised was brought from Chill—one having a pleasant, pineapple- like aroma, which was known as the pine strawberry. In America, during the early colonial days, the wild strawberries of the field were abundant and furnished a much prized article of diet. These wild plants were transplanted to the garden and produced fruit of increased size. The garden strawberry is, therefore, an American product. It adapts itself to a wider range of latitude and to greater extremes in environment than any other cultivated fruit. There are a great many varieties, each peculiar to its section of the country. As the strawberry contains abundant salts of potash, lime, and soda, its value cis a food can not be over-estimated. What is more refreshing on a warm day, after being fatigued from labor in the. fields, or perchance, after returning from a long walk, than to sit down to a dish of these luscious berries, which our Creator has so kindly caused to grow for tts4—As you cutr~rhemwith thespoon- and-the- fine red juice begins to flow, note the contrast between this sieht and the one, so horrifying, of cutting a piece of bloody meat, causing the dozing out of the blood, "which is the life." "Take not the life ynu cannot prive. All things have equal right to live." For persons very ill with fever, or for any others who require a light diet, there is nothing better adapted than fruit juices. This is the lightest diet which can be taken, digests easily and is very refreshing, .because of the valuable acids which the berries contain. Further, the fruit acids are germicides, keening the stomach, and in fact the wh<#e alimentary canal, to a great degree, free from germs, which would otherwise do much mischief, overpowering the body weakened from battling against disease. According " t o~ strm«^ au t hori.ties, beside the antiseptic property of the strawberry, it possesses more—a curative property. Linnaeus, it is said, was persuaded to take strawberries during a severe, attack of sciatica, with the result that a sweet sleep ensued, and when he awoke the pain had sensibly subsided. On the next day he ate as many strawberries as possible. and on the following morning the pain was gone, and he was abfe to leave his bed. Gouty pains returned at the same date in the next year, but they were dispersed as soon as Linnaeus was able to get strawberries. As the strawberry excels all other common "Dailey would induce grave complications. I am sure of it. I know a man who contracted chronic dyspepsia watching Dailey on the stage." "You are hard to please," observed the doctor, thinking Intensely. "I have it! ' See Nat Goodwin." The sufferer was disconsolate. "1 am Nat Goodwin."—The Sunday Mag azlne. Not Worth It.

Strawberries are best eaten just as they come from the vines, after being thoroughly washed, with as little sugar as possible, as much sugar renders fruit less digestible. The straw- | berry, as well as all other acid fruits, | does not combine well with milk or | cream, so this should be avoided. ) Canned berries are very nice for use : when fresh ones are out of season. !

Exercise ts very necessary to health and many do not take enough of It; but on the other hand, perhaps even more people rest too little, or what amounts to the same thing, do not rest properly. No matter how well developed the muscles are, if they are rigid and stiff they will not do the best work. They must be readily relaxed when not in use. Even athletes if they really understand the laws of exercise, strive for relaxation as well as for well-developed muscles. Rest means relaxation—not only of the body, but of the mi-d also. In America, particularly; we are apt to forget this. That is why "nervous prostration" is such a popufaTphrase just now. The Germans, as a natio", go more slowly than we do in all things; the English and even ~ r h r ~ French take life more easily. Perhaps our atmosphere conduces to energy and hurry. At any rate the popularityof such words as "strenuous", "hustta" and the like, in this country, show our attitude as a nation. Of course we cannot immediately change all this, We do not wish to. Enthusiasm and energy, hard work and hard thinking, have brought us to our present state of prosperity, and we cannot afford to fall back now. Nor do we need to. Hard work, whether of hand or brain, does not kill, but continual work and worry do. If we would secure the future generation* from nervous degeneration, we must learn how and when to relax. This is very hard for some temperaments. Some people must have their hands constantly occupied., in some way, and it is difficult, of_ course, to remember that haste is"often~slower than deliberation. We say that have no time to go slowly. A great fault in busy people is their failure to relax thoroughly at night. Many go to bed and sleep, after a fashion, but ?'itlr tense nerves. The mind should be as divested of worries and cares at bedtime as the body is of clothes. The muscles must be relaxed. If exercises are taken at night, they should end in a few especially for relaxation. Some of —the most helpful of these relaxing exercises may be mentioned: " 1. Stand easily erect,.chest raised and,abdomen in, and let the head fall gently forward, then arms and irunk above the waist. All this must be done without effort, the breath being gently expelled at the same time. Afte r a little panserraise the body stowtyr 2. Stand erect, raise the arms above the head and let them f a l l - first the fingers, then the wrists, then thc>arms. 3. \ e t the arms hang at the sides, then slWly and gently swing them from side to side, gradually letting the head/and then the body swing with tht Remember that your object-is to relax the muscles and do all these exercises easily acd with as little exertion as possible. "It's All Dead." A ul^bician recently rolated an incU tenced thcv prisoner to be hanged, but his lawyer interrupted. "You can't hang this prisoner'according to law. your honor." he said.

On being seated at a table upon which was an uncarved chicken, he cried out in evident distress. "It's all dead, mamma! I must have hurted it," and he could scarcely be persuaded to remain at the table until the dead creature was carved past recognition. Children are naturally tender and sympathetic,- not only toward each other, but also solicitous for the welfare of the lower animals. The parents of this child will probably congratulate themselves when his tender nature becomes so calloused that the sight of a dead animal being devoured will seem to him entirely consistent, and will no longer excite his pity. Manv of tho boys in the stock yard districts, of our large cities are further advanced in education in this line, for they consider it rare amusement to torment the live stock before they are unloaded from the stock cars. One method i>s to poke them with red-hot irons until the animals give vent to the most piteous outcries. , The barbarous custom of college hazing is another manifestation of this same spirit of cruelty, which, when implanted early enough in thp child's mind and then carefully fostered and cultivated, will invariably In due time produce a bountiful harvest of undesirable fruits in various shocking manifestations of human cruelty.

PLACKWAY, President Ross RKAI>, Clerk A good many ot the local papers are starting a crusade against the large mail order houses, using examples showing where the purchaser pays the same price, or more, tor an interior article than be would have to at home, then adding the cost'of draft, money order, freight* etc. This is all true enough but the home merchants have no great reason to "kick." They have the same privilege ot letting the "borne" folks know ot ot their prices, grade of goods etc., by advertising, as the mail order houses and if they do so they will be able to hold their customers. They also have the right to refuse credit to anyone and do a cash business. Their rents, taxes, etc. are much cheaper than the large ci'y concerns and there is no reason why they cannot sell goods cheaper. The only trouble is they are afraid ot their home competitorswhen they quote"prices. " Let them right the large concerns with their own weapons, plenty of printers ink and the trade will be kept at home. The sign "14 lbs. of sugar for $1.00" on the head of a cracker barrel does not do. It must be placed directly in the home the same as the catalogue bouses, either by bills, or better yet, the newspaper columns. The city daily is the same menace to the country weekly as the mail orderhouse to tbe-home merchants butthe country weekly holds its own by doing for its patrons what the daily cannot, namely, give all the local hap penings and consequently holds its own and many times gains patronage.

The committee in charge bad decorated the church beautifully with an abundance of ferns and flowers until it presented a bowerlike appearance. As usual the program consisted of songs, duets, recitation, etc. and each part was so weil executed that it showed much hard work on the part of the officers and teachers in charge. Perhaps the finest production was the flower drill by fourteen girls of Mrs. C. L.

There was a drill by a boy's class which was also very fine and instructive showing that in tbe coming army of professors, preachers, presidents and other leading men, the class of boys may-berepresented. It would not do for us to make personal mention of any one, as everyone was entitled to the same mention and that would take too much space. We do wish to say however, that it was tbe best exercises of the kind we ever saw in Pinckney and those i i charge have every reason to feel proud of the success attained. The M. E.

HATCH NAN Author of *'Tho Bank Tragedy*' Copyright, 1898, by Lee and Shepard CHAPTER V. ••Mr. Carter Breaks the Matter Gently. In less than two weeks the Injunction was removed from the bank, which resumed active operations. The •hondsmen paid the sum for which they were obligated, and matters rapidly •took on their usual aspect. Mr. Carter and his partner were doing well at the mill, but it could not l)e denied that the loss of money and Vane's defection were hard to bear. Pitying his niece deeply, he could not T5eBr-to-a44-4o=nar jxUOy„..teUJng_h«L of the terrible suspicions entertained oow almost universally, and so he sat generally quite silent at his meals, .spending his remaining time at the office, under the plea, correct enough, of press of business. But one day he decided to tell his niece the whole matter, and so after tea one evening he sat down in bis arm chair beside her and said, "Are you too busy to talk a little tonight?" "I am always busy, for I find so much to do, and I want to get everything in order before Vane comes. But I am ready to talk with you, for you have seemed too tired lately for conversation. You have really earned a rest, and when Vane comes I am sure he will insist upon your taking it." '' Constance," Jxe,- saM.gravely, '_4has_ It nnt occurred to you that your husband may never return?" "He isn't dead! You don't mean to tell me that?" she cried in a sharp, wild voice, clasping her hands and looking at him with wide eyes and terrified gaze. "No, no. child, I don't mean that, but maybe it is as bad." "As bad! Nothing could be as bad •as to lose my husband, uncle. I could beSftef" lose all else besides^ I have thought about it a great deal since he whelming hefore; thexsatisfied every one else; but when Low's letter came to the president of the bank, then a telegram stating details, we had to believe. If more proof were needed, it was supplied afterwards when another altered note, this time altered from four hundred to four thousand, came in. For a day or two it looked as if the bank must fail. The trustees issued -& circular to the banks of the country to send in any deposits they went away, and I am convinced that to ] might have of their paper, but thf re tose~ Vane would-kill me.'* — . ( w a s n o response, so it is likely no account of the bank examination, under sensational headlines. "Why!" gasped her uncle, "I thought you knew nothing about it." "I did not until yesterday, and I would not believe it. The paper was over a week old, and I thought that it related to the first suspicions, but that since then all had been proved right." "Matters were set right at the bank by his bondsmen paying the amount that was missing, Constance." "You were one of them, uncle." "Yes." "Well, wlien VaU"e~conres back*-h* will pay you." "What folly is this, Constance." said her uncle, sternly. "Henderson and I held out till we could do so no longer. The proofs were overwhelming; the accoitnt you have read is true." "But because he went away and does not return, is.tha^t criminal? He may be ill somew^hen?. People frequently have .brain Tever and cannot tell so much as their names." "But Vane was well on the 28th of May. He was at the bank the 22d. He got five thousand dollars at the national bank in Boston on a note which he presented himself." "But hadn't he a right to when he is the treasurer?" "Listen, Constance," said her uncle, quite patiently, though he inwardly wondered that women could be so unreasonable. "The proofs were over- The hand dropped beside her and an ashen hue covered her face. *0h, come, now, Constance, 1 wouldn't go on like that. Women's husbands die every day, and they don't feel like that; the most of 'em get married again. I only wish your husband was as well off as theirs." "As well off as theirs—dead! What • do you mean,-Uncle Carter?" said Constance, rising with indignant face, • crimson where it was pallid before. "'Are you crazy?" "'You will make me crazy, Constance, If you go on tbat way. Your husband is a dishonest man. there:" blurting it nut and mopping his face energetically. "I meant to have broken it to you 'oasy. but you wouldn't let me," he said in a complaining tone. But he was alarmed directly by Constance Falling back in her chair. Her hand dropped beside her and an ashen hue covered her face. Her uncle thought she was dying. He flew to her side, grasped a tumbler of water and was atxnit to deluge her with it, but she put up her hand and said weakly: "No. not that, 1 am so cold." She was shivering now, and her teeth chattered audibly. "What shall I get you?" cried her uncle "Nothing. I shall be better soon. I am better. You were saying, uncle—" she said feebly. "No matter what I said. Folks get mistaken. Forget it all, I would. Don't •bother your head about it." She motioned to her work basket. "Get that paper," she said. He looked and saw a neatly folded -newspaper, the Boston Globe, containing^ as Jdr. Carter saw directly, a full other notes were offered. That is exactly as the matter stands, Constance. I thought it wrong to leave you in ignorance any longer. You know how I hate unpleasantness or trouble of any sort, and that I would not have told you if it could have been avoided." " I know, Uncle Carter, you, meant to be kind," said Constance in a low, restrained voice. "I am sorry I spoke to you so sbarply, but I was upset by having the matter broached when I had set it one side. I don't believe it now. and I am sorry that you do. But no matter," as he opened his mouth to speak, "you cannot help it, perhaps. You did not know him as 1 did. I an, sorry about the money, but Vane will reimburse you if lie is living. If not, I will," and Constance took up some sewing, and, selecting a needle already threaded, took a few tremulous stitches. Her uncle went out the door and down to his office ruminating. "She has doubts, I can see that, but she won't give way to them. There are deeper feelings at work in her heart than her words show. Poor Constance! What a brave soul she has! And to think he should desert herl It is hard to believe all this of Vane Hamilton." Hard,- indeed, but how many instances like it are on record. Institutions for savings have been proved necessary*. The most trustworthy men, as they are supposed to be, are placed nearest the money center. Responsible men, in "most cases personal friends, are held ag sureties under heavy bonds. And yet what is the result? U can be read almost any day in the newspapers in the lecorus of bank defaulters, in the history of men whose, ,honesty wa,s, sjpwly consumed by proximity to temptation, the incident to great trusts. Bruce, meanwhile, was pursuing his investigations in his own manner. By strenuous endeavor Bruce succeeded'in discovering the fact that the woman with the emerald-tinted hair got off the train at Mechanic Falls, although Libby professed to recollect tbat she bought a ticket through to Portland. The detective further learned that she went north that night, when Conductor Stone was in charge of the train, to Island Pond. She staid all night at the Stewart House, and in the morning took train for Coatlcoke, ostensibly, but as he shrewdly surmised, she was quite as likely to have stopped short of her supposed destination. Thus far he was enabled to track her, but no farther. In fact, he knew nothing about her after she left Island Pond. —Bruce was at his jwits^ends. The fifteen hundred dollars held but Hy the bank president, together with professional pride, made him unwilling to relinquish the undertaking, and be set himself to finding out what he could about Hamilton's past life, the portion of it which was compressed into the two weeks in each May which, since his marriage at least, he invariably spent away from Grovedale. As his investigations progressed, Bruce grew more and more excited, and it is not too much to say that he was completely mystified as well. For it was in the most questionable streets and among the most dishonest haunts tbat he found the surest traces of his presence. He had his photograph, he had the assistance of other detectives, and as the search went on, it was proved that Vane Hamilton, or his double, was the frequenter of places KAILRCAD RATS LEGISLATIONTestifying before the Senate Committee at WWnhjgtoji, ., Inter-S^te Commerce Commissioner fcrouly $nii in discussing the proposition to give to that Commission the power to regulate railway rates: "I think the railways skwld make their own rates. I think tfeey should be allowed to develop their own business. I have neter advocated any law, and I am not now in favor of any law, which would put the rate making power into the hands of any commision or any court. While It may be necessary to do that some time, while that Is done in some states at the present time, while it is done in some countries. I am opposed to it. * * * The railway rate is property. It Is all the property that the railway has got. The rest of its property is not good for anything unless It cjkn charge a rate. Now it has always seemed to me that when a rate was fixed, if that rate was an unreasonable rate, it deprives the railroad company of its property pro tanto. It is not necessary that you should" confiscate the property- of a railroad; it is not necessary that you should say that it. chall not earn thicC per cent or lour per cent. When you put In a rate that is inherently unreasonable, you iiave deprived that company of its rights, of its property, and the Circuit Court of the United States has jurisdiction under the fourteenth amendment to restrain that. * * * I have looked at these cases a great many times, and I can only come to the conclusion that a railroad company is entitled to charge a fair and reasonable rate, and if any order of a commission, if any statute of a st"te legislature takes away that rate, the fourteenth amendment protects the railway company.*" which the honest people of Grovedale would have shuddered to~cbntemplate; even in imagination. Bruce went West again, for he was in hopes to discover that Hamilton had retraced his course to the Stages. If involved in dishonest schemes in western towns now, as Bruce felt convinced that he had been in the past, he was "likely, he thought, to return any day, for prudence is not commonly the characteristic of a-rogue. First Bruce went to Valparaiso, a new but exceedingly enterprising town -in—Kansas^ where he fancied tidings were to be found of Hamilton's operations. He was right. It appeared that a trio of unscrupulous men had in several instances set up a bank in new and growing towns and operated successfully until they had victimized the moneyed men, when they had xlosed up suddenly and decamped. As the scenes of their, operations were thousands of miles apart, and their names were assumed, they escaped detection, strange as it may appear, until they came to Valparaiso. This was early in the year 18S7. But two men came at first. Their names were given as~ Scoville and Blown,—A private bank was opened Floating Nests. When mother grebe is ready to lay her eggs she searches out some retired spot, among the reeds and rushes of a lonely Take, and there shescrapes and pushes together a low heap of mud and decayed reeds, says C. William Be.ebe, in Recreation. Here on the water-logged islet—this merest semblance of a nest—sho broods her eggs. A moose splashing among the nearby lily pads may send floods of water over the sitting bird, or the winds may disentangle the litile__ raft of reeds, sending it scudding to the farther end of the lake, but tbe~ bright eyes of the mother bird never falter. She carefully covers her eggs ger forces her to leave them. Although she does not weave the reeds, yet in some way they hold together until the last little grebe crawls to the edge and plunges off head-first.

Covered Head, Neck «nd Shoulders- Suffered Agon/ for Twenty-fiva Years Until Cured by Cutleura. "For twenty-five years I suffered a& ony from a terrible humor, completely covering, my head, neck and shoulders, discharging matter of such offensiveness to sight and smell that I became an object of dread. I consulted the most able doctors far and near, to no avail. Then I got Cutleura, and in a surprisingly short time "I was completely cured. For this I thank Cutleura, and advise all those suffering from skin humors to get it Keyes, 149 Congress Street, Boston, Mass." Burnt matches, like worn out advertisements, should be done away with. and operations begun, but for some reason the business men of the little city were shy of them. Suddenly a new member joined Scoville and Brown, as joint owner of the bank. This was in May, as Bruce easily disco* creu. He &<tve hit name aa iVohloy,- and was a genial, handsome man who won his way to public favor at once, as the others had not succeeded in doing. His wife was with him, a woman with emerald-tinted hair. Bruce, as I have said, went to Valparaiso and to the residence of one of the principal business men, who had been deeply victimized by the bogus bank. For under cover of Ashley's pleasant fellowship and hfs wife's grace and beauty the good peopleasoon had cause to abuse their own credulity. Bruce got the account from Mr. Hayes-himself, who was only too glad to relate it,when it might be of use in tracking the swindlers. "We fought shy of them at first.*' said Mr. Hayes, "but when Ashley came it changed everything. You never would suspect him of being a scamp—:never. Such an open, honest countenance, and that wife of his was a little beauty, if her hair was green!" "Was she really his wife, do you think?" "He introduced her as such, and she appeared to worship him. They took a handsome furnished house on Main street and went to keeping hodse. They gave a big party, and we all went. Such a crush! Well, afte^ybt ali was plain sailing for the ne*aHEmk. You can't mistrust a man after you have eaten his bread. We can't here in the West. Deposits began to pour in on them. AH of the solid men banked there. Well, the upshot was in ten days - after Ashley came we found we had been swindled, our notes sold or deposited in other banks as collateral security for cash paid to Scoville, Brown and Ashley, and in at least a dozen instances the figures had been altered so that the scamps got ton times the actualvalue of the notes It was a gigantic swindle," and Mr. Hayes got up and paced the apartment nervously.

At that age the structure is being 'formed and if formed of a healthy, sturdy character, health and happiness will follow; on the other hand unhealthy cells may be built in and a sick condition slowly supervene which, if not checked, may ripen into a chronic disease and cause life-long suffering. A young lady says: "Coffee began to have such an effect on my stomach a few years ago, that I was compelled to quit using it. It brought on headaches, pains in my muscles and nervousness. "I tried to use tea jn its stead, but found its effects even worse than those I suffered from coffee. Then for a long time I drank milk alone at my meals, but it never helped me physically, and at last it.palled on me. A friend came to the rescue with the suggestion that I try Postum Coffee. "I did so, only to And at first, that I didn't fancy it. But I had heard of so many persons who had been benefited by its use that I persevered, and when I had it brewed right found it grateful In flavor and soothing and strengthening to my stomach. I can find no words to express my feeling of what I owe to Postum Food Coffee! "In every respect it has worked a wonderful improvement—the headaches, nervousness, the pains in my side and back, all the distressing symptoms yielded to the magic power of Postum. My brain seems also to share in the betterment of my physical condition; it seems keener, more alert and brighter.

With the usual horseplay in the closing hours the forty-third legislature of Michigan concluded its work for the 1905 regular session, and while final adjournment will not take place until June 17, no further business will be transacted. The galleries of both houses were crowded with visitors almost up to the last minute of the session which lasted until 12 o'clock midnight Wednesday. "1 am highly gratified at the worK of the legislature of 1905," said Gov. Warner. "The appropriations are reasonably low, the railroad legislation gives the roads no advantage over the people, and the primary bill going beyond the platform, is in line with the people's wishes." The legislature of 1905 was in session five months, and held sittings on 94 days. The house has received 905 bills, the senate 450. In the house one committee on towns and counties. Chairman Fisk, reported 55 bills, all of which passed. The legislature has provided for. two new state boards—the state board of acountancy and the secur: ities commission. The state tax commission has been reorganised. T h e ) hi^hway commission has been re-- •Lstureri. Onp npw institution, or Ins tit uj tional experiment, has oeen esialn- | lished, the tuberculosis hospital. I An important addition to the judir- [ iary of the state is provided in the bill for juvenile courts. Another judicial change is the passage of the Browu bill, allowing trial judges to have an advisable maximum in imposing indeterminate sentence, and requiring the pardon board to look Into each case upon the expiration of the mhilmwm sentence. Next to judiciary legislation important work has been done in tax legis- Jation. The Read bl)l_to change the tax oh, vessels from an ad vaiorem tax assessable locally to a tonnage tax payable to the primary school fund caused much discussion. The tax commission now h a s power to equalise between railroad and gen eral properties, and sleeping car com panies are to be taxed. The state ta> commission is to be reduced to three m em be rs-and-the attorney- general hasbeen given authority to examine the books of railroad companies. The railroads have not fared well, while the electric railways, which afe desired by the farmers, and are rivals of the railroads, have been treated royally. Two new powers of importance have been conferred on electric railway companies—under the Eichhorn bill they were given the power of eminent domain and under the Simpson bill the right to own steamboat lines. The *'G. R. & I." fare bill failed miserably, and if the Baillie bill to cut out damages for suffering of persons injured in accidents and who die from their injuries, advantages railroads, the houses were unaware of it • at ilie time, and the house has ropu school legislation of 15W6 is thought by the department to be the most important in years. In general state affairs the bill that has attracted most attention is the Holmes bill regulating the speed of automobiles. The game and fish laws that were passed were the result of able discussion and wise compromises, and do not effect any very great changes. I The bank legislation has been tojward conservatism and security. The ; Partlow bill, allowing state banks to organize in o d e s of 1,000 or less, with a capital of $10,0o», was killed. Rep. Lord's bills to prevent fraudulent manipulation of bank assets, to raise the necessary capitalization of loan socities from $50,000'to $100,000, to re- , quire two examinations yearly of all banks in the s t a t e outside of reserve cities, instead of one each year, as at present, to widen the scope of investible securities and create a securities commission, all passed both houses. The house approved the administration bill for tbe state examination of private banks, but it failed in the senate* The primary bill that has been passed and signed is not what everybody wanted, but it is more of what more people wanted than any other measure 4 h a t was presented. - Else it would not have passed. The primary bill, whatever its mechanism may prove to be, is in its terms a worthy type of the hard working, conscientious, compromising legislature of 1905. There is no doubt, that at the opening of the session the majority of house and senate were in favor of a strict platform bill. The surrender of Gov. Warner, after ne held to the platform for rao**j than half the session, is only a type of many surrenders of personal wish for popular claim. The triumph of the house figures over the senate figures makes the total appropriations j y committee recommendation $5,174,794 b t . The continuing apropriations provided by law amount to $1,369,951 76, and ;hus the total appropriation for 1905-6 will be $7,124,746 58.

When it was thought that the omis j sion of the subrogation clause in the 1 insurance policy bill would help the | railroads, the clause was promptly restored. Both in this and in the Baillie bill the lailroad interest was n^t known at the time of passage, and when it was known thmgs were different The Simpson bill to make railroads common carriers of-live stock passed the house, and only narrowly failed in ihe senate. Corporations in general have received safe and sane treatment. This is true with regard to'bills that have passed an 1 bills that have been killed. The Smith, bill releasing certain corporations from obligation to file lists of stockholders was held up in the house committee. The Lord bill, requiring patent rights, copyrights, good will, etc.. to be included in company statements passed both houses, and it is expected it will be a serious curative for overwatering of stock. Although important because of the interest taken in the subject, the labot and liquor legislation of the session is very slight. ' T h e only labor bill to become law is the Duncan bill to prohibit women working at polishing or buffing. Legislation for or against the liquor dealers has failed, except the provision in the general primary law to close saloons on primary days. All of the anti-cigarette bills failed. In public health and education a number of important matters have bften done. The state board of health has been reorganized. The state board of education has been granted the repeal of the one mill tax, and the deaf schools of the state are brought more under its supervision. School districts may now bond themselves without asking Lansing, the first real home rule bill. The powers of the state superintendent have been increased.

At times when I have been completely broken down from excess of work, so that my faculties seemed actually a t a standstill, Peruna has acted as a healing" restorer, starting the machinery of mind and body afresh w i t h new life and energy. l i I recommend it to a m a n tired in mind and body as a tonic superior to anything- I know of and well w o r t h y serious consideration."—J. Tighe. Excess of work so common in o u r country causes impaired nerves, leadingto catarrh and catarrhal nervousness—' a disease t h a t is responsible for half of all nervous troubles. Peruna cures this trouble because it cures catarrh wherever located. If you do not derive prompt and satisfactory results from the tise of Peruna, -wri-te at once t o Dr. Ha-rtmiyn, giving a, full statement of your case, and he wilL be pleased to give you his valuable advice gratis. j Address Dr. TIartman, President o r The H a r t m a n Sanitarium.

Iti is a medicine, not a cheap food or condition powder. Though put up! in coarser form than Thedford's Black-Draught, renowned for the! cure of the digestion troubles of | persons, it has the same qualities of invigorating digestion, stirring up the torpid liver and loosening the constipated bowels for all stock and poultry. It is carefully prepared and its action iB so healthful that stock grow and thrive with an occasional dose in their food. It cures hog cholera and makes hogs grow fat. It cures chicken cholera and roup_ and makes hens lay. It cures constipation, distemper and jCQldjS_jn_horgeaI_murrain in cattle, and makes~a draugnt animaT more work for the food consumed. It gives "animals and fowls of all kinds new life. Every farmer and raiser should certainly give it a trial. It costs 25c. a can and saves ten times its price in profit.

Ave. and Shelby St., Detroit, Mich. [Original.] Harry Holland was an all round good fellow. l i e loved bis1 wife and their two little .children devotedly, but did not hesitate to risk his and their happiness by what be considered harmless affairs with women. <'lara, his wife, w a s one of nature's peeresses, and every one who knew the couple wondered liow Holland could bo even amused with other women. Nevertheless be would yet up an affair with some creature who bad neither brains nor principle and whose beauty was often entirely "made up." Clara pretended not to notice these freaks, fully appreciating what it was to start even the slightest breach between her husband and herself. Was not his, her and their children's happiness all at stake'.' She argued that every man has his weakness, and this was the only weakness of which her husband was guilty. "My wife is a sensible woman," Harry would say to his iutl-' mate friends. "She knows it's a man's nature to rove, and it's a woman's nature to be true to one man. She's the angel of the household." So long as Harry ilitted from one flower to another—some of them wax and p a i n t - t h e r e w a s no great harm done. But at last.a woman got hold of him who kept him dancing attendance upon her so long and so constantly that t h e affair became the towu talk. Then rumor began to undermine Mrs. Holland's good name. "You see how it is," said thinking persons; "one sin leads t o another. Clara Holland has been a t last affected by her husband's wunt of principle. They won't hang together long. What a pity for the Children:" H a r r y didn't exactly like the situation and cautioned his wife. She did ~ n n t a n y -rVijivcn p w f M t t n n f i n t w t o <»t)^»r women and I'll cease accepting favors from other men." She simply said, "Oh, Harry, we don't either of us mean anything by it!" This w a s not satisfactory to Harry. For t h e first time he began to think bis wife w a s not the angel of the household after all. H e began to think of the terrible results t h a t might accrue from his wife's conduct. What if his family should be broken up, his children separated from him? It would be the woman's fault, but that- wou4d n o t m e n d .matters. One would suppose he would begin to ^et matters right by devoting himself to his home and letting other women alone. But the charmer who at the time held possession of him was not inclined to give him up. One'morning as he was going in to breakfast the postman called, and Holland took the mail from him. Glancing over the letters, he saw one addressed to him in a woman's hand that he did not recognize. He , thrust it in his pocket and after breakfast, while reading his paper in the library, opened it. It read: K e e p a n eye on y o u r wife. S h e is p r e - paring- to skip' o a t w i t h C. B. Holland sat so long in the library that his wife at last came in and asked him why he delayeTr~goTng dawnruwtrr--ttsusual. When he looked up at her it w a s with an agonized expression. "What's the matter, Harry'.'"' she asked. H e handed her the note. She read it till I should give her tbe word. She is aa pure a n d innoeenxas a little child. I advised her some time ago to begin the preliminaries that have led up to this lesson. If it is not enough to make you mend your ways the next one will be very different and Irrevocable." The man's face Indicated the change occurring within him a s be listened tp the words. When they w«re-finished he took his wife In his arms. Then at Alice Holland's beck their children bounded in from the adjoiniog room and w e r e included In their parents' embrace.

Grand Rapida Flood. Unless the 'present rains, that seem to be quite general over the watershed of the Grand, cause a marked rise in the river, which hardly seems probable, the water in the majority of the present iundated districts will recede rapidly. Those living in the flood districts of Grand Rapids are now worrying more about, (he conditioni created by the Hood than the flootf itself. It is the almost general belief that the stagnant water of this flood, most of which came through the sewers, will leave disease and a general condition of unhealthfulnes» in its wake. Grand Haven is isolated on account of the floods,- not having had a train since Monday. Freight business is piling up without the possibility of handling it. Interurban lines have to transfer their passengers to buses to get them to Spring lake. Many of the creek freshets have just reached Lake Michigan at Muskegon harbor, and the lake is rising rapidly at that point. It is supposed the body of Charles Stauffer, drowned Tuesday, lies* buried under tons of sediment washed up on the sands.

The Exchange bank, of Garrison & Sergeant, was broken -into Friday night and $110 in money and $500 in postage stamps taken. The robbers broke into the section house of the D. & M. and secured therefrom some of the tools wkh which the job was done. They dri 11 ed and blew~6pen the outer door, jet strange to say, neither of the explosions was heard, and the first known of the robbery was when the store in which the bank is located was opened for business Saturday morning. Papers were scattered all over the floor, but so far as known none was taken. The bank does not lose anything, as it had recently taken out burglary insurance for %?><)QQ. The postmaster had just deposited about $100 in money and $500 in stamps in the bank for safe keeping. After rifling the safe, the robbers stole a team of horses and a buggy from the barn of H. B. McLaughlin, with which they made their escape. The entice state experienced a storm of varying severity in different sections Monday aucrnuon and evening. In the Thumb the z*orm assumed the character of a cyclone which *;wept destruction over a path nearly a mile wide and about seven miles long, causing four deaths In Tuscola and Sanilac counties; fatally injuring four more and badly wounding in the neighborhood of 4.0 other people and sweeping houses, barns, orchards and forests clear in its path. Scores of people are homeless and spent the night in the drenching rain, stumbling through the night in an endeavor to find some shelter, houses, furniture and clothes being blown away. Houses and barns were destroyed like eggshells. Some valuable horses and large amounts of other ttock such as cattle, hogs and poultry, were killed outright, or cannot be found. In the western portion of the state it was in the nature of an electrical storm -with cloudburst features. Railroad traffic was seriously crippled, the Pere Marquette reporting 30 washouts and the D., G. H. & M. at least 11 more. Two wrecks resulted from the washouts at Ionia, five men being killed in one of them. Grand Rapids had a veritable flood resulting from a cloudburst. Bridges and dams vvere washed away throughout the state and nearly every section had from 12 to 18 hours of steady rainfall. THE DAWN OF PEACE JAPAN AND RUSSIA, ARE READY TO NEGOTIATE TERMS.

He says that every precaution was taken, a brakeman having been stationed both at front and rear of the train. Gramen-was taken-c'it \v4th-eae- leg and one arm off. He died shortly after reaching Fowler. Formal and entirely satisfactory replies have been received from Russia and Japan to the president's identical note urging them to conclude peace by direct negotiations. The two powers are ready to appoint their plenipotentiaries and the only questions as to the preliminaries is how the commissioners shall be brought together and where they will meet. Exchanges on this point are going on between Washington, Tokio and St. Petersburg and it is expected that £ie decision will be announced soon after President Roosevelt returns from Virginia and that an armistice will follow immediately. So far the president has not been asked to act as an intermediary in bringing the plenipotentiary together, and the indications are that the date and place of their meeting will be arranged by the two governments. it is considered improbable that Mr. Roosevelt will be called upon to further exercise his good offices, though it is altogether likely that he will be the avenue through which the two powers will inform each other of the appointment of their peace commissioners and arrange their meeting place. In diplomatic circles there is a decided belief that—the terms o£. peace will be arranged on the battlefield in Manchuria. There they would IN THE STATE.

They were spearing, and had aboard a five-gallon can of gasoline. In filling the jack, which held two gallons, they spilled some of the gasol i n e o n t h e nursi'do of r h o I n m p n n r | it We hear a lot of talk about "beautifying the canal zone."

According to one correspondent they are killing flying snakes on the Rappahannock, and according to another the steamboats plying that river have decided to close their barrooms. It is time. Mark Twain has had his full share of trouble in recent years, and now his daughter has the appendicitis. A man who has done so much to make others cheerful deserves more happiness himself. It is understood that the surviving widows of Mr. Hoch are about to form an- old settlers' association. Some thrilling, hair-breadth escapes will probably h e recounted when the pioneers get together. A Pennsylvania court has decvided that ''a man fs master in his own household."

One of the boys discovered that the can was open and threw it into the lake. The gasoline became ignited and the can exploded, scattering the burning fluid about on the water. To save themselves they jumped and dived down, swimming under water until they had passed the mass of burning fluid on the surface. They reached shore in safety. George Lamb had both hands severely burned, but the other two men' escaped injury. The boat was burned up. Killing Farmers' Stock. Cattle killing, which was broken up 10 years ago, has-again started in a different way_ A. cow belonging to Farmer James Perry, of Alpena township, was killed in the woods near the pasture. The hide was removed and sold to a local hide buyer for 50 cents. The. carcass was left in the brush where it was fomtd by Mrs. Perry. A milch cow, valued at $5(), owned' by John Sczmonsky, a dairy farmer adjoining, was killed in the same manner the following day. The hide was sold to another dealer. The man is described as a young stranger. Farmers of the neighborhood offer $100 reward for the slaughterer's capture. To Complete Huband's Work. The widow of Leonidas Hubbard, of Michigan, who^perished while on an expedition to Labrador interior is enroute for Sillisport, on the Labrador coast, whence she will continue explorations from the point where her husband was forced to stop. Mrs. Hubbard's party will include five Americans, besides Indians and other guides. Mr. Wallace, who was associated with Hubbard in the previous expedition, passed through Halifax a week ago on his way to Labrador with the same object in view as Mrs. Hubbard. Mr. Wallace said nothing about Joining Mrs. Hubbard in the project. Flying Rollers from Benton Harbor are trying to convert Denver. Mrs. Lincoln Avery, of Port Huron, was severely injured in a runaway aeoident while driving with a party of friends.

The first fire in Lawrence in five years occurred last week, when an old landmark, known as the Goodenough house, burned. It had been standing for over 60 years. Two hours before a house on one of A.

McGarry to Ionia prison for four years for bribing I.ani be on practically neutral territory v.:td far removed from any influence that the powers might secretly try to exert. There, too, they would be in direct communication with their governments over telegraph lines controlled by the two governments, so the negotiations could be well guarded. All of the diplomats believe the war is over. While the possibility of a hitch even after the negotiations are well under way, is admitted, they do not think the differences as to the final terms will reach a point where hostilities will be resumed. The spirit in which Russia accepted the outline of Japan's terms, which was laid down as the basis for formal negotiations, is accepted as proof of the czar's desire to end the war, and also his belief that peace can be restored without working any ^humiliation or any great hardship to Russia. Immediately following the publication of the president's note it was announced from St. Petersburg In a statement apparently inspired, that Russia was ready to name her plenipotentiaries as soon as Japan selected hers. The announcement of the president's success in bringing the warring nations together was a surprise to practically all foreign diplomats.' Without any knowledge of the details they knew that the president was seeking to effect an amicable understanding that would end the war, but they expected that the preliminary negotiations would drag along for days and probably for weeks. They were wholly unprepared for such prompt results. Saltburyr» Sentence. Lttttt K. Salaoary was sentenced \T Judge Wolcott la the Grand Rapid*- superior court Monday morning to pay a fine of $2,000. He was convicted December 4, 190J, o t e n t e r i n g into a criminal conspiracy with Robert A. Cameron to secure a water contract from the city of Grand Rapida and of accepting a $75,000 bribe, or a portion of that amount, from Stilson V. Mac- Leod, who was acting as Cameron's agent. Salsbury's conviction was appealed to the supreme court, which affirmed the verdict of the lower cvurt. Meanwhile Salsbury had served twoyears in' the Detroit house of correction for violating the banking laws. After his release from Detroit, Salsbury told his story of the water deal conspiracy involving many Grand R a p - Ids officials and others. When Judge Wolcott called Salsbury before him the respondent, with tearsin his eyes, made a plea for mercy. He said: "I can say nothing to add new light to the affair. I have testified repeatedly to the facts. I have no just cause to urge the court in my behalf. I realize that 1 had a duty to perform, as every citizen has. I violated that duty, as n o one more 'deerpTFTeirTtzgs than" myself. I have been dishonored and also my family. I am left to start in middle life, penniless and without friends. "It may be said that the sentence already served by me was not connected with the water deal. I have done all that I could to right the wrong and will continue to do so. I do not blame anybody else. I blame myself. In making my public sta-tement I had no promise of clemency." Pleas were also made in his behalf by Wesley W. Hyde, who assisted in the trial when Salsbury was convicted, and by Judge W. E. Grove and Assistant Prosecutor Ward. The fine of $2,000 was paid at once. Salsbury was the star witness for t h e prosecution in t h e water deal cases, and testified to bribing aldermen, other public officials and men of high standing. Salsbury was city attorney cf Grand Rapids at the .time.

New York, In a hand-book on the prevention of tuberculosis, encourages the active campaign against this great plague and gives a concise summary •of 4 ,Why" the battle should be waged. Because more people die of consumption than from any other disease. Each year 1,095,000 of the people of the world die of it. In the United States over 100,000 die every year of consumption. Every day 3,000, and each minute of the day two persons fall before this enemy. How many of your friends have died of It? Because It is a disease which spreads from one person to another, .and any one may catch it. Because it is chiefly caused by the filthy habit of spitting. " ~ " Because it Is a disease which can be stopped, and need not spread. Because every one may and should help stop it. Because already there la change for the better. The number of deaths from consumption is growing less. Twenty years ago there were many more deaths in proportion to the population than now. If the tuberculosis death rate of 1886 had been maintained the first nine months of 1902, four thousand more persons in Manhattan and the Bronx would have died of tuberculosis than ASPARAGUS, ITS P R E P A R A T I O N actually died in these months.

How a Comfortable Nook May Be Made Artistically Beautiful. Who was t h e first possessor of a cosy corner? An ape, a forilla, or a man? We have all read of the lion and his den, and other wild animals having their exclusive places of retreat, and now comes a man with his animal nature cropping out of him, and even passing his semi-parbarlan days, he, too, wants a cosy corner, or a place of retreat, where be can go all by himself and spend an evening to read a book or to smoke a "two-fer." The cosy corner has become an artlBtic necessity in the modern home; so much so that hundreds of dollars are sometimes spent in their construction and the fixing up of such places.

The use of tobacco by children, Its causes a no* prevention Ts uTsc~u s sed" In the Medical Summary. Whilst most states have laws forbidding the sale of tobacco to minors, it is a notorious fact that such laws are universally ignored. The parent, teacher and physician are to blame. The parent, that he does not thoroughly train his child; the teacher, that he does not better supervise the conduct of his pupils; the doctor, in that he does not warn the parent, who perhaps errs himself. School boys may be seen any day on their way to school with books under their arms, and a chew of tobacco j or a cigarette In their mouths. Occasionally little girls may be observed indulging in the seductive cigarette on the streets. What will be the inevitable results? The best that could be hoped wpuld be numerous tobacco useFs, but worse might be feared, and very much worse imagined. The evil Is evident, and the remedy is provided, but law is useless till enforced on violation. The dealer will not obey, it till public sentiment demands it; the child does net choose to submit to it; the parent is negligent; the pupil is indifferent or silent; and what is left for the child's salvation but action upon the part of the guardians of humanty. If we act, we move thankless. The parent will not appreciate; the dealer will be made an enemy; and the children will hate us as they become men.

Beyond the display of the new Norwegian flags from the buildings in Christlanla and portraits of the provisional governors in the shop windows, which attract small crowds, there are no visible signs that Norway is In the throes of a revolution. Norwegian and Swedish merchants continue business uninterruptedly. Large Interstate deals Involving thousands of pounds, and providing for future payments are being signed daily as usual. The officials here express confidence that Sweden finally will accept the situation. While, however, determination is evident everywhere, intense anxiety is apparent, and the members of the cabinet are extremely busy in organizing the new government and providing for eventualities. A member of the cabinet said it was not expected 'that Sweden would declare war, but in that event, he added, Norway would be prepared. The army has been mobilized for annual drill and the government has taken precautions to lay in an adequate stock of military stores at advantageous points. The minister said that the popular feeling of the country favored a re Citizens of Large Cities Say It It* public and expressed the hope fhaT the United States would be the first to recognize the new government. The Norwegians do not expect any difficulty abroad. New York, June 13.—In the recent agitation here about the price of gas, the demand for lower rates was supported by the argument that every resident is as dependent upon a supply of gas as upon a supply of good water. It has come to pass that the day laborer uses gas as b's only fuel for cooking, because of economy, and the rich man uses gas on account of Its convenience. Gas for lighting, with modern improvements In burners, is cheaper, better and more satisfactory than any other kind of light. Gas sells at ,$1.00 per thousand cubic feet in large cities and from that to as high as $3.00 In smaller towns. The consumer of gas in the country usee Acetylene (pronounced a-set-alene), and each user makes his own gas and is independent of Gas and Electric Companies. Acetylene Is a more perfect illuminant than the gas sold by the big gas companies in the cities, and the cost to the smallest user is about the equivalent of city gas at 85 cents per thousand. Acetylene is the modern artificial light, the latest addition to the many inventions that have become daily necessities. ; The light from an acetylene flame ! is soft, steady and brilliant, and in quality is only rivaled by the sun's | r ays. If water and a solid material ) Vnown as Calcium Carbide are brought into contact, the immediate I result is the making of this wonder- | ful gas. The generation of acetylene | is so simple that experience or even i apparatus is not necessary to make j it. If it is desired to make it for prac- J tical lighting, and to keep it for im- ] mediate use, then a small machine i called an ''Acetylene Generator" is Table Novelties. Novelties for use in the household or on the table are continually roakof eat portions first. Asparagus cooked in bunches is well done if, when held j j n g their appearance; and most by the thick end in a horizontal position, between the fingers, it only bends lightly and docs not fall heavily down. The time required for boiling asparagus depends upon its freshness and -ago. Frosh, tender asparagus cooks in a very few minutes, so quickly, indeed, that the Roman emperor. Augustus-, iiuimaTing that anv affair must be concluded without delay, was accustomed to say, "Let that be done quicker than you can cook asparagus." Fifteen or twenty minutes will . , , .,, , suffice if young and fresh; if old, lawyer and lavrr.on will sneer , f _ thirty ^ fiflv m , n | l t p . quired. Stewed Asparagus.—Wash, break if we attempt to enforce the" laws. Even but a few of our own body politic may be depended upon to act, either by precept or concerted movement. Few physicians are even good enough politicians to ask a councilman or representative to vote upon a measure. The effort against the evil Is necessarily, for the time, along the lines of Individual effort. To do good, we must practice, act, and preach. If our "smoking" friends will close their eyes while puffing pipe or cigar, they will find they cannot tell when they "have fire."

Asparagus for Egg Sauce.—Prepare and cook asparagus as directed above. When tender, drain thoroughly and serve on a hot dish or on slices of nicely browned toast, with an egg sauce prepared in the following manner: Heat a half cup of rich milk to boiling, add salt, and turn into it very slowly the well-beaten yolk of an egg, stirring constantly at the same time. Let the whole just thicklemon squeezer in a metal frame and the other a pickle jar and fork. The distinctive point about the latter, which is simple in shape and easy to clean, is the handle, which is so arranged that It drops back and forms a holder for the cover. This is a convenient arrangement, as it is not always an easy matter to satisfactorily dispose of the pickle jar cover. Wearing Out. a Strike. The Chicago strike resulted in another death Saturday night, when Samuel Robinson was killed by Frank Austin, a colored policeman who was guarding a wagon owned by Rothschild & Co. The wagon was passing Forty-third and State streets when one of the crowd of men shouted at the driver. No violence was offered, bur, according to the statements of witnesses, the colored policeman became excited and. drawing his revolver, fired directly into "the crowd of men. The bullet struck a silver coin in Rohlston's vest pocket and, being deflected, passed, through his abdomea. The policeman was arrested. Wh:l?

While the trouble was at its hight. John Hince, a union teamster, forced his way through the crowd, and coming up to Jones when he was stooping over on some lumber, struck aone^ overfae head with an ax, cutting a gash in his scalp three inches long. Hince struck a second time, taking off several fingers of Jones's left hand, which he raised to protect himself. Hince then attempted to escape, and Officer Benson, who started in pursuit, was greatly hampered by the crowd, which tried to shield Hince. Hince was eai>- tured by the officer after a chase of two squares. The condition of Jones i.- scrioui. employed. There are many responsible concerns making acetylene generators. In practice, this gas is distributed in small pipes throughout buildings, grounds, or entire cities and towns, In the same manner as ordinary city gas. Acetylene is the only satisfactory means of lighting isolated buildings located in the country or suburbs at a distance from city gas or electric plants. SET T H E BURGLAR RIGHT. : Squire Was Angered at Dullness of j the Intruder. This is one of the many stories told | of old Squire Latham, a Plymouth co-nty attorney of some years back. It fully illustrates his coolness and •\ love of method. ! He was awakened one night by his 1 wife, who told him she.thought there - were burglars in the house. The squire put on his dressing gown and Went downstairs. In the back hall lie found a rough looking man trying to open a door that led krto the back ; yard. The burglar had unlocked the door, and was pulling it with all his might. The squire, seeing the robber's predicament, called to him: "It don't open that way, you idiot! It slides back!"—Boston Herald. watch smoke curl.

Asparagus With Cream Sauce.— we say of its consumption by the j Thoroughly wash, tie in small bunches, and put into boiling water: boil till'perfectly tender. Drain thoroughly, untie the bunches, place the stalks all the same way upon a hot plate, with a dressing prepared as follows:* Let a pint of sweet cream (about six hours old Is best) come to the boiling point, and stir into It salt to taste and a level tablespoonful . of flour rubbed smooth with a little cold cream. Boll till the flour Is perfectly cooked, and then pass through a fine wire strainer. Asparagus on Toast.—Cook the asparagus in bunches, and when tender, drain and place on slices of nicelybrowned toast moistened in the asparagus liquor. Pour over all a cream sauce prepared as directed above. Asparagus Points.—Cut off enough heads In two-Inch lengths to make three pints. Put into boiling water just sufficient to coyer. When tender, drain off th*e water, add a half cup of cream, and salt if desired. Serve at Corns and Bunions. These are not confined to the sick loom, but they are. nevertheless, inconveniences for which natural methods affords in many cases great relief. The first measure to be adopted is the removal of pressure. Both bunions and corns are the result qf undue -pressure. This may be accomplished by a suitable adjustment of the shoe or other foot covering In many cases, but sometimes it is necessary to apply what are known as bunion-plasters and corn-plasters. By this means the pressure may be made to fall upon the sound and non-sensitive' tissues lying around and outside of the affected part*. Inflammatory conditions, whether affecting the bunion or corn, may be ^ marvelously relieved hy proper applications. If the com or bunion is painful, it should be soaked in hot water * for fifteen or twenty minutes, or until once cut in half. Season wjrh a little salt and pepper, celery salt,' one tablespoonful of butter, one-half teaspoonful of sweet cream to moisten the crumbs and one well beaten egg. It will take three cupfuls of stuffing to fiil an ordinary sized fowl. Chestnut stuffing is also delicious, It is made by taking one pint of chestnuts that have been peeled, blanched and boiled till tender in slightly salted water. Drain them over the fire and mash fine; moisten with one tablespoonful of thick sweet cream, season with salt, white pepper and a little nutmeg. Then mix in two tablespoocfnuls of meltefl butter and one cupful of bread crumbs. Garnish the dish with whole boiled chestnuts and a brown sauce.

The mystery of the murder of Hulda Schubert on March 22, last, has been cleared, through affidavits secured by Chief of Police William M. Clemens, of Wheeling. W. Va. The two men who were responsible for her death have committed suicide, according to the story told by the wife of one of them. A four days' search for ih\} missing Schubert girl resulted in the finding of her body hidden by brush in a gully on Chaplir.e hill. Her rings, watch and money were missing and finger marks on her neck indicated that she b/\d be?n strangled. A month after the murder. Bradford Powell, aiias Dawson, shot himself through the heart on a farm back of Ravens Rock. W. Va.. and a few days later Oscar Perry Devore. alias Samuel Piatt, shot himself at New London, 0., and after his revolver had been taken from him, went to a barn and hanged himself. Neither man made a statement. Now Sadie Devore. wife of Oscar Perry Devore. voluntarily makes an affidavit that her husband came back froni Wheeling about April 1 and told her that he and another man had killed a girl on a hill back of Wheeling. He was constantly in fear of arrest and the crime preyed on his mind. When he learned that Powell had ended his life he.becamo despondent.am! a few Jays later ended hi* own life. The Earliest Newspaper. The first daily newspaper was a m ? r ,n-rripf tpftpr written by salaried correspondents and forwarded by them every twenty-four hours from mdon to the provinces. That was in the>Mays of the early Stuarts. During m e Commonwealth these London letters were printed in type and circulated in large numbers. Even so long ago as 1C80 the law of libel wa3 such is to be characterized by Judge Scroggs as making any newspaper publication illegal and tending to provolte a breach of the peace.

One morning when I was sitting in the engine room waiting to relieve him he told me this story: In 1892 while in the Java sea, having quarreled with my captain, I left the ship at Borneo. I found an Englishman who wanted to take a tug to Hongkong and agreed to go with him, we two being the sole crew. The tug proved to txs a tub, and we soon found something the matter with the connections between the Are box and boiler. We lay to, put out the flVes, then cleaned out th« fire box, which it was necess a r y t o enter,— _ While I was hunting for the trouble With a lighted candle the Englishman was keeping watch on deck. Presently he called for me to come up and showed me a suspicious looking craft on the starboard quarter. She didn't fly any flag, set tow in the water and appeared to have no especial purpose. . "She"s a pirate," he said. "Nonsense," I replied; "there are no pirates nowadays." - "Don't you believe it. These waters are full of them. They're not the reg: ular thing they used to be. They're There was no reply. Then we gave It op. Some time passed, during which there was no sound except the plash of the waves against the sides of the tug, when we heard the latch Hfted and the door moved ajar. My companion thrust an arm through, and I forced the door wide open. A copper colored m$n covered with blood had crawled to the door and opened It. He couldn't say much, and we couldn't uriderstand what he did say, but In time we learned that he wad one of the pirates and his captain had shot him for differing with him about the disposal of the tug. Supposing him to be dead, they had left him to go down with her. The first thing we did was to plug the bottom. Then, having found the difficulty with our connection* and patched It, we fired up and proceeded on our course. We put the pirate ashore on Great Natuna island and lied like pirates ourselves by telling the people there that he was a good man. He had saved our lives, and we did not propose to give him away. S.

What could we do? There was no fire in the J o h n s box, and if there were we couldn't make more than six knots an hour. While the pirates—if'they were such— j could make ten or twelve. Of course : we were nothing of a prize, but there i was no expectation that we would es- J cape with our lives anyway. We cast j a wistful glance at one of the Anambas | Islands, not more than five miles away on the port side. "I'll tell you what we'll do," I said. "We can't swim ashore, but we'll make believe we've tried. There's one chance for us here. We can get into the lire box. and if they don't happen to open the door they won't know we're aboard. What do you,say?" "One chance in a thousand, but we'll take it. There's nothing else to do."

Japan refused to go to Europe and Russia was unwilling to meet Japan in the far east. The powerful influence of France was exerted to assist Russia in sending the negotiations to some European capital, preferably The Hague, and if not The Hague, then Geneva. Japan preferred Washington and Russia hoped that the influence of the president, who preferred The Hague, would result in the selection of that place. Finally Russia acquiesced and Joined Japan in trie request that Washington be selected. The announcement came in the form of an official statement issued by Sec retary Loeb by direction of the president, as follows: When the two governments were unable to agree upon either Chefoo.or Paris, the president suggested The Hague, but both governments have now requested that Washington be chosen as the place of meeting and the president has accordingly formally notified both governments that Washington will be so selected. Pressure is being brought to bear upon Japan to induce her to fix the sum which she will demand as an indemnity for the pending war at as low a figure in cash as is possible in thp circumstances. This pressure is being exerted especially by European governments, but President Roosevelt, it is intimated .in an important quarter, also has advised the Japanese government that moderation in her demand for a cash indemnity not only would facilitate the negotiation of peace terms, but. would bo regarded by the powers with particular favor. The paymmil b> Russia of any such Boeto* **t*iftts Stirring Up Warm .Protest. . Rev. W. P. Lovett, of the Wealthy Avenue Baptist church, of Grand Rapids, is to take charge of a propaganda in Michigan against the influence of John D. Rockefeller's "tainted money," so injurious to the entire church. The movement is headed by Rev. Herbert Johnson, of Boston, one of the most prominent young Baptist preachers of the country, and even before the Congregationalists took up the discussion of the Rockefeller gift, he had excited comment through the east by his open denunciation ot Rockefeller, so that, as Mr. Lovett pointc out, the protests were begun in the Baptist church. "The silenoe of the Baptist ministers on this question," sRld Mr. Lovett, "has given the people of the country the opinion that our denomination *s a whole is, by reason of acceptance of gifts from Mr. Rockefeller, afraid to voice any objections." Will Veto Vessel Tonnage Tax. The bill providing a tonnage tax for "vessels Will be veloedv—Qov. War* ner is opposed to it because its operation would reduce the revenue of the state about JfiO.OOO- a year, and because he believes it contemplated a backward step. For a number of years the state has moved in the direstlon of ad valorem taxes for corporations, the sentiment of the people being against specific tax system. State Fair Appropriation. Senator Haird and Representative Baillle were here from Saginaw to oppose the singing of the bill making an appropriation for the state fair. They declare the bill did not receive the requisite number of votes in the senate. The governor will sign the bill and let its opponents make their legal fight in the courts, if they see fit to do so. CONDENSED NEWS.

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

Chicago's official seal, a new one, Is supposed "an infant sleeping in a shell." as its design, but critics say It has a baby sitting upright,, with legs dangling over the edge and looking very wide awake.

Queen Christina, of Spain, who inherited an Immense private fortune from her uncle, the late Archduke Albert of Austria, has for a number of oy earlier English use, is really a sinew. When Pope speaks of "nervous a r m s " he means exactly the "brawny arms" of the village blacksmith;, and this sense survives, metaphorically In a "nervous style of writing," which is very different from a "neurotic" one. Shakespeare used "nervy" la the same sense. But now that "nerves" no longer mean sinews, "nervous" in the common use has almost reversed its old meaning. In Dr. Johnson's time "nervous" in the modern sense was still only "medical cant."" Now men of "nerve" are very different from men of "nerves." RAILWAf jpgyj^SQIgUTION. At the bieMlaJ convention of the Order of Railway Conductor* recently held at Portland, Oregon, resplutions were unanimously adopted voicing their sentiments as to the effect of proposed railway rate l e g i s l a t e on the 1,300,000 railroad employ**, whom they in part represented. T!*n# resolutions "Indorse the attitude'Vity" President Roosevelt in condemnfBtf secret rebates and other illegalities, and commend the attitude of the heads of American Railways, who, with practical unanimity, have Joined With the president on this question." They then respectfully point out to Congress the "inadvisabillty of legislation vesting In the hands of a commission power over railway rates, now lower by far in . the United States than In any other country," because such regulation would "result In litigation and confusion and inevitably tend to an enforced reduction in rates, Irrespective of the question of the ability of the railroads to stand the red«ction, especially in view of the increased cost of their supplies and materials^' They farther protested against sueh power being given to the present Inter-State Commission because "the proposed legislation is not In harmony with our idea of American jurisprudence, inasmuch as it contemplates, that a single body shall have the right to Investigate, indict, try, condemn and then enforce its decisions at t h e cost of- the carriers, pending appeal, which is manifestly inequitable."" The conductors bas» their demand for only such legislation if any, a i would "secure and Insure Justice and equity and preserve1 eq^tal rights to all parties concerned," on the ground that the low cost of transportation "Is the result of the efficiency of American railway management and operation which have built up the country through constant improvement and development of territory, while at the same time recognition has been given ~ttrthe value of intelligence among employes In contrast to foreign methods, where high freight rates and lowest wages to employes obtain."' In pressing their claim against legislation adverse to their Interests, they point out the fatrt that "the freight rates of this country average only two per cent of the cost of articles to the consumer, thus making the* freight rate so insignificant a factor in the selling price that" numerous standard articles are sold at the same price in all parts of the country." Advice From a Bishop-. A story, which may not be without its application locally in these days, was told.at a meeting in England the other night at the expense oA the bishop of Manchester. When the bishop was in Australia he was approached with the request to appoint a day of prayer and fasting in view of a prolonged drought. The bishop, who was a man of works as well as faTth, replied: "If you prayed less and dammed *< more it would be a great deal better for you." Smallest Installation.

At Chatham, England, a short ^time ago, a cow was being driven home from market by the purchaser, when it started In pursuit of a little girl named "Dickinson. The girl took refugr in her house, and her mother had barely time to barricade the sitting room door with chairs and a sewing machine when the cow commenced to butt it. The animal then proceeded to stumble upstairs, and in the front bedroom wrought much havoc among the furniture and fittings. A great crowd had by this time assembled in the street Qaae <ot the spectators ran in and opened wide the bedroom window, out of which the cow almost immediately pwi its head and forelegs.

For the baby born with a gold spoon in its mouth and which is to grow up to dine on gold dinner services, there Is a christening cup of gold floating around New York Just now. The cup being valuable, is not made in the form of a handled mug, useful only for Infancy, but like a regular tea or coffee cup with a saucer and spoon to match. The fet was made in Paris upon the order of a grandee of Spain, and was intended as a gift at the christening of the infant son of one of Spain's highest officers. It is in empire design, the cup in graceful lines with a standard and handle raised above the level of the cup at the top. This handle is in the design of a lion, supposedly the lion of Spain. The saucer and spoon agree with the style of the cup. For some reason the grandee, the high officer, or circumstances fell out, and the presentation was never made. Now the cup has drifted to New York, in the hands of private people, and is waiting to be purchased for one of New York's millionaire babiesrfor~T400'-" 8 A V E D C H I L D ' S L I F E . ^ 4 oo DROPS iimrlln. .,1.. .,,,,r ...11 ,: .1i~i'iii :.«iii"'ii.iT.'i inuflTiiTiii.tillllUiiiiiiiiii.

Together they ascended the winding footpath that womul its way up the hill and stood on the summit looking across the brown lie Ids of Tusttuiy to the faint blue lin<> of water in the distance. Close at hand was a clump of stunted olive trees, ami beneath the trees was the shrine of some saiut. They had been on the summit of the hill but a few minutes when a peasant woman came tolling up the path and with scarcely a glance at the two Americans knelt before the shrine and began to mutter raptd prayers while she deftly lingered a rosary. --* They watched her in alienee; Miss Norton with a smile of understanding and quick sympathy and Chadwiek with that looU of sardonic complacency which put that member out of for a few days.

All is quiet in the street car situation in Saginaw, the only development being a move by the company to again put the regular running schedule In effect. A full quota of cars is giving service, and while there is little riding, more fares are beings recorded than during the past week. Albert Wendt, employed on the Bearinger building at Saginaw, while at work on the third floor, backedMnto the elevator shaft and fell 30 feet to the bottom of the shaft. The pit was full of water, which saved his life. A badly sprained arm and bruises about the head are his only injuries.

Franco-German tension is beyond doubt- largely responsible for t h e success of Mr. Roosevelt's pacific efforts. If France and Germany were not within sight of war when M. Delcasse resigned, all the best opinion of journalistic Paris is astray. Rouvier, representative *of French finance, had persuaded the syndicates to withhold aid when St. Petersburg last asked it and when he, known to be a grudging^partisan of the Franco-Russian alliance, informed the Russian government that Germany's course toward Morocco might compel France to invoke Russian aid, with the alternative of throwing up the alliance if that aid were not forthcoming promptly, the advisers of Nicholas saw how deep is the game the German emperor is playing, the game that began with his advice to the czar to send the western frontier regiments to Manchuria. Today Russian statesmen have a two-fold cause of chagrin, defeat by the enemy they, had despised, and betrayed by Emperor William, ever ready for the role of the honest broker, no matter who wins or who loses.

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

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

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

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

We have seen no rocks and but little rough country, we, run into Niagara down main street and alight. We look all about us for some signs of the "falls" but are disappointed—none in sight— only that ceaseless^noise of street cars everywhere, but where? our companion (who has been there before) says, that noise is the falls. We drop our grips and a walk of two-blocks brings us to one of the most beautiful, wonderful, and sublime scenes it has ever been our privilege to look upon and although it is dinner time we can hardly tear ourselves away trom the view. That beautiful, quiet river we had seen for so many miles, suddenly goes wild. It strikes an incline of 49 feet in about a half mile over rocks and shoals until it is beat into fury, then plunges 167 feet to the rocks below and while the bulk rushes on through the gorge a mist is raised that when the wind blows right makes it impossible to get within many rods of the falls without an umbrella' or storm coat. It is however dry most of the time and both falls—the American and Horseshoe— can be seen from any point ot view. Ot course no one would feel that they had seen the falls unless they visited the many beautiful spots surrounding them, Goat island, the Three Sister islands, etc. are easily reached on foot unless one is limited Continued on Pave 4. y' of their work and on Wednesday and Thursday the work was displayed in the grammar room and attracted much attention. While other sehools do something of the kind each year this was the first time that such an exhibit was ever given here and the teachers, M;sses Kennedy, Monks and Green, have every reason to be proud of the work of their pupils. There were essays, illustrated stories, pen drawings, water color work, diagrams of every discription also basket work and all done with much neatness showing that the hand, eye and mind had been cultivated to work in unison. Many who saw the pen drawings, mounted on mat board thought, until they gave them close examination that they were prints cut from magazines as they resembled them very much. The patrons of the school who took time to. visit the exhibit weie much pleased and interested and the teachers felt well paid for their ertra work.

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

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

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

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

The petition states that the liabilities of the insolvent concern total $300,000; that the bank has but a small amount of cash on hand and can pay .but a small per cent of the claims against it. It was further stated in the petition that the president was ill: that the cashier, Charles L. Keep, had asked that he be declared a personal bankrupt; and the president. E. L.

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

Warner from the cyclone-swept districts of Tuscola and Sanilac counties indicate that the responses to the governor's recent appeal for assistance for the victims of the disaster have not been as widespread and generous as was hoped for, or as the'situation demands. Gov. Warner expressed the hope that the people of the state will bear in mind the fact that about 150 houses, barns and other farm buildings, together with miles of fence and other farm property, were utterly ruined, and that the need of aid is most imperative. The greatest need Is for lumber, fencing, household goods, etc. All' contributions should be sent to A. A. McKenzie, chairman of the relief committee, Cass City, Mich.

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

L , In May, 1784, the American congress, then In session at Annapolis, Maryland, received the resignation of John Jay of New York from the American commercial commission abroad, Mr. Jay being the colleague. of Benjamin Franklin and John Adams and Mr. Jefferson, then a member of the congress frqm Virginia, was elected to the vacancy. It was at a time when Mr. Jefferson was emerging from the one great sorrow of his life, the loss of Mrs. Jefferson, and the stricken statesman gladly accepted a mission which would take him away from his desolated home and give him such engroaalBg; j^ubH&jWorkas could not fail to prove beneficial in the end. /So Tie speedily arranged his home matters by correspondence, drew a portion of his $9,000 salary in advance, and with h}s eldest daughter, Martha Jefferson, then a young girl of ten years, the ttttare president proceeded leisurely *tt$ward ta quest of a ship that was bound for a French port. From Annapolis to Philadelphia, ijthen to New York, and by easy stages through Connecticut and Massachusetts to Boston, in the month of June, was undoubtedly, a very delightful trip to a man who could derive so much pleasure as Jefferson could from nature's own unrivaled attractiveness at that season of the" year, and the arrival of the distinguished stranger in Boston was not heralded Europe as a minister plenipotentiary from the United States in the room of the Hon. John Jay, Esq., who is about to return to America. Gov. Jefferson, //ho has so eminently distinguished himself in the late glorious revolution, is a gentleman of a very amiable character, to which he has joined the most extensive knowledge. He is a mathematician and philosopher as well as a civilian and politician, and the memorable declaration of American independence is said to have been penned by him." The Independent Chronicle of July 1 has this brief allusion to the presence of Mr. Jefferson in Boston: _JJSince our last arrived in town from theTs6uffi"waf<r~His" Excellency Thomas Jefferson, Esq., late governor or Virginia and member of congress, now one of the commissioners for negotiating treaties with foreign powers." The Gazette did not condescend to give Mr. Jefferson any kind of notice, completely ignored him, and so far as there is any record,to the contrary, Gov. John Hancock, then a sick man, it is fair to say, did not extend any official attention from the executive depal^ment. Bu"t Mr. Jefferson himself has left on record some evidence that he did receive a kindly greeting at the hands of Boston's social set of that day, his letter to his friend, Elbridge Gerry, found below, expressing his grateful acknowledgments of this the more pleasure as he was 10 go himself in her. "The intermediate time I have employed in a'.trip to Portsmouth, in order to gather in that state, as i had endeavored to do in the others through which I had passed, such information as to their commerce and other circumstances as might in some degree enably me to answer the purposes of my mission. No small part of the time, too, has been occupied by the hospitality and civilities of this place, which I have experienced In the highest degree. - These, with the preparation for my voyage, have left me'scarcely a spare moment; and receiving assurance from every quarter t l i a t - t might"derive- from Mr. Tracy the fullest Information as to the commerce of this state, I have referred much of the inquiries I wished to make to the vacant hours of our voyage,, "Pressed with the attentions necessary for the winding up of my affairs here and getting everything on board this forenoon, I have only time to bid you an affectionate adieu, to thank you for the many civilities to which you have assisted in introducing to me here, to assure you of the pleasure it will give me at all times to hear from you; leaving with Mrs. Cotton a token of my friendship for you.

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

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

However one can spend money if they desire as hotel rates vary, from $1.50 to $12 per day for- board. One can get a good room for $1.00 per day and get meals a la-carte or a good meal for 25 cents.

The place is visited a great deal in winter also when it is very beautiful, everything is coated with ice and the ice piled high below the falls forming sometimes a complete bridge.

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

INDIAN TREATMENT OF 8ICK. -~ft---la a great satisfaction for a woman to feel that she can write to : another telling her the most private land confidential 'details about her illness, and know that her letter will be seen by a woman only, a woman full of sympathy for her sick sisters, and above all, a woman who has had more experience in treating female ills than any living person. Oner one hundred thousand cases of female disease* come before Mrs. Pinkham every year, some personally, others by mail, and this has been going on for twenty years, day after day. Surely women are wise in seeking advice from a woman of such experience, especially when it is absolutely free. Mrs. Pinkham never violates the con* fidence of women, and every testimonial letter published is done so with the written consent or request of the writer, in order that other sick women may be benefited as they have been. Mrs. Fred Seydel. of 412 North 54th Street, West Philadelphia, Pa., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham :— " Over a year ago I wrote you a letter asking advice, as I had female ills and could not carry a child to maturity. I received your kind latter of instructions and followed your advice. I am not only a well woman in consequence, but have a beautiful baby girl. I wish every suffering; woman in the land would write you for advice, as you have done so much for me." Just as surely as Mrs. Seydel was cured, will Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound cure every Woman Buffering- from any form of female ills. No other medicine in Ml the world has such a record of cures of female troubles as has Lydia £. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Therefore no prudent woman will accept any substitute which a druggist may offer. If yon are sick, write Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass , for special advice. It i* free and always helpful Pt«a In Mitigation. Mayhap my sins are grievous; yes. I fear me monstrous in the sight Of God and man the red array Of deeds that do my record blight; They hurl me from Perfection's height, A sinner sick with guile—and yet, I swear me this, my sins despite, I never smoked a cigarette. My faults are as the leaves that fall In number, as the shifting sands; I claim no righteousness at all; I yield to sundry strong demands Or flesh; my soul is bound in bands By demons of the blood—and yet. With all my faults, this record stands: I never smoked a cigarette. Sometimes. I know, my feet have trod Outside the straight and narrow path; I am with human weakness shod (Like you—but tell it not in Qath!); Though still J may escape the. wrath And win my soul's salvation yet. For this bright page my record hath: I never smoked a cigarette. So reader, take this little lay Andlcnow you may be happy yet, If only you will watch and pray— And never smoke a cigarette. —Portland ©regontan. - SeJf-Protectlng Plants. Plants protect themselves much tbeij same as insects. One of the uses of the movements of the sensitive plant is to frighten animals. A venturesome, browsing creature coming near it is afraid to touch a plant which so evidently l i occupied by spirits. The squirting cucumber o r the Mediterranean alarms goats and cattle by discharging its ripe fruits explosively in their faces the moment the stem is touched. The cucumber contains a pungent juice, which discharges itself into the eye of its opponent, and the smarting sensation which results hard to bear. The dainty grass of Parnassus is beautiful but dishonest. It is a bog herb, has glossy green leaves and pure white blossoms and is supposed^0"be-the-poe4%-flower.. Ua milk white flowers are lovely, yet HI8 JUDGMENT AT FAULT. they are deceivers^ The drops of honey which bees and insects fancy they see ipside the petals are solid, glassy imitations of honey, which fool the bees which are lured in,this way that they may carry off the pollen to other blossoms and are held fast until they die. New Jersey Honey Mine. _ Nearly 100 quarts of white honey were removed from between the clapboards and plastering of the McMahon nSn^Ic^nnQ^Hnt^n^YemieT KahwayT N". J., on a recent morning.

In answer to inquiries as to the \ meaning of the word it was explained that a pachofsha is a feast and a part o! the incantation and superstitious ceremony conducted over the sick by the lower c l ^ a of Ignorant Indians. When a man is thought to be sick enough to require the services of a doctor Jie is put into a hut, and for three days no one except the doctor sees him. The doctor goes into the woods and gathers herbs, from whlca he p£eparws a potion for the sick man and men keeps a lonely vigil with him. At the end of the third day, if the patient is not improved, the jorder is given to prepare a pachofsha. Corn and meat, either beef, pork or game, are put in a large kettle and stewed until the corn is soft. All the relatives of the sick man are entitled to attend, and they gather around the kettle for the feast. The sick man is brought out and served first. He is fed as much as his stomach can hold, and the others then turn in and devour the remainder of the stew. When tbiB~is--eon£ludeuUa^>on^-j. flre is built and lighted, and the crowd circles around and dances to the tune of a weird chant. After this, if the sick man does not show signs of getting better, nothing more is done for him, and he dies or gets well by act of Providence,—Oklahoma Times Journal Talents and Confidence. A single-talent man, supported by great self-confidence, will achieve more than a ten-talent man who does not believe in himself. The mind cannot act with vigor in the presence of doubt. A wavering mind makes a wavering execution. There must be certainty, confidence and assurance, or there can be no efficiency. An uneducated man who believes in himself, and who has faith that he can do the he_. undertakes, often puts to _Ono instance Where Balzao Failed as ^ i~~QlrapHbloQtitr " ^ If there was one thing upon which Balzac flattered himself more than another it was his skill in reading character from handwriting.

Balzac inquired whether the child was her own. Answered in the negative, he examined the exercise carefully and delivered his Judgmnt. "Madame," he said, "this child is thick-headed and frivolous. He- will never come to any good. If he were my child I would take him from school and put him to the plow." Then It was explained to the novelist that the specimen on which he had pronounced so severely was one ofj his own which had been discovered hidden away between the leaves of an old lesson book.

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

Everything in the house that does not add something to the convenience happiness or education of the family or some member of the family is an extravagance.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Dr. Wilson answered: "The punishment must have been merciless." Attorney Barlow objected and the court ordered the answer stricken out. Attorney Campbell then asked the witness what caused Philip Miller's death. Slowly, and without evident reluctance, Dr. Wilson replied: "I think his death was caused by the whipping."

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

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

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

A special from Watklnsville, Ga., says six negroes and one white man were lynched there Tuesday night by a mob of white men, many of whom were supposed to be citizens of that place and Oconee county. The mob formed about midnight, marched to the. jail and compelled the jailer to deliver the keys to the prison. The following prisoners, all negroes, were taken from their cells\ Lewis Robertson, Richardson Robertson, "Sandy" Price, Claude Elder, "Ben" Harris, "Joe" Patterson and "Jim" Yearly. Lon Aycock, a white man, was also taken from his cell by the mob. The jailer was compelled to accompany the mob and its victims to the scene of the lynching, which was but 200 yards from the center of the town. The eight prisoners were marched to a corner lot within 200 yards of the jail and in the heart of the town. They were bound to a fence with their hands tied behind them. At a command by the leader, the mob stepped back a few paces, took deliberate aim and fired a volley from rifles, shotguns and pistols into the line of prisoners. Every man In front of the mob fell at the first volley. An examination by the jailer showed that seven of the men had been riddled by bullets, but Patterson Was found to be only slightly injured. Pat* terson's escape from death was as by a miracle, for the fence post to which he had been bound was torn to fragments by the bullets. Seven bodies hung in a cluster from the orossbar of a telegraph pole, swaying in the wind, greeted the first arrivals in the town Thursday, the lynching being completed before daylight. The gruesome evidence of popular vengeance was left to strike terror into the lawless negro element which, the whites of Watklnsville blame for the series of crimes the-lynching wan designed to end. calves, $2 5 0 0 6 2r,j Texas fed steers, $3 50@4 75.

I don't read the Bible as often as I ought, but twice lately, Sunday morning, I have read a few verses, and on going to church the minister would read the same for a morning'lesson. Now, I say, considering how many verses the Bible contains, these two incidents are more striking'than the single one of Hamilton's riding on the train with a woman who has since been proved to bi connected with a bank defaulter in the West. You haven't considered, either," said Tony, shrewdly, "that Bruce was led to, Ashley by the clew furnished by heY iemeraid hair." "That is something worth looking at. Sometimes a wrong starting point sets people on wild goose chases." ~^wali71yho~ yap one qf, thrtrctghtesfr men in the1 • profession7, took up the matter with great enthusiasm after he talked with Constance. ull he \s not innocent he ought to be for ier sake," he said to Tony. As it transpired the search was not as long as he anticipated, for, although ting. He gave it to the boss, who passed it to Swan. There was a letter H.. on it, and .without doubt it was one of the set of three studs which the cashier wore when he left home. , "Where did you get it?" asked the boss. "Find 'urn," said the Italian, "Where?" The man motioned toward the south, saying, "Down reever." - T h e first Italiaif came up at this juncture and said: "He He. Stole 'urn from Pierre." "Who is Pierre?" asked Swan. "Pierre drowndeed." "Yes; Pierre was drowned at Grovedale with' three other Italians," said the boss, walking with Swan to a little^ distance. "They went across the river for Hqnnr, nml th? front "p«"* *n* they were all drowned." "What sort of a man was Pierre?'' "The worst of the gaag," said the boss. "They are a murderous set, too. I would not have them, but the corporation get them cheap and Ihey work well. The four men that were drowned were burled in the dump by the others without any more ceremony than would go to the covering up of a dead horse. I tried to have them make a box, but they would not until I threatened them with a discharge. They made two, at last, and put two men in each and buried them so. They are a bad lot." "Would they kill a man, do you think?" "Yes, if they were not afraid of being found out. They value life no more than a pebble." —kft can easily bo- imaginedp-Swanis^ investigations were—uuulu with im . The river was dragged as far ac the falls, where It was impossible a body ' could remain, ana. far below the falls. It continued three days, end at the end of that time a decomposed body was found; with a few rags elining to It, but nothing about it which could lead to recognition. Jt was a frightful sight and Constance was not called upon to Identify it, as many of the hank officers, and Mr. Carter himself, said that there would not be the slightest use in doing so. So Constance was spared the harrowing scene aad encouraged to believe the body could not be that of her husband, particularly as it was discovered that a fifth Italian had been missed from his gang one night, and philosophically left to his fate by his companions, though they believed him to have been drowned. This information was received through the boss to whom Swan wrote for information. Nevertheless, the body was decently buried at the expense of Mrs. Hamilton', though not in the family lot, and Constance, with a new doubt eating Into her already troubled heart, felt as if ail efforts In elucidating the mystery of her husband's disappearance only made it denser, more unfathomable. .

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

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

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

It was repaired m 1882 in the reign of Victoria, queen of Great Britain, the Marquis of Lome being governor general of Canada," etc. A fact which the Inscription kindly fails to record is that the burning referred to was by the American troops, who, having captured the fort in 1775 under General Montgomery, burned it the following year when they retreated to Lake Champlain. The various restorations have been made skillfully to harmonize with the weather beaten portions which resisted the fire of 177G. picture of which appears in this issue. Far away from the dust and dirt of the city the company purchased a site ot ten acres in the resident portion where the conservatory occupies one solid block and was ereoted at a cost of nearly ¢2,000,000.

Why is It that a policeman of medium build can handle frequently two and sometimes three men his stze in a fight? An officer on the local force was dlscusalng the question. 'Til tell you why It Is," he said. "It Is aitnpjy ber cause tbe policeman is in uniform. The uniform denotes authority, and that takes the nerve out of his opponents to a certain extent. They know that they arc breaking the law by resisting him, while he might even kill them and not commit a crime. All through a fight with a policeman the other fello-w or fellows arc thinking of escape. Tbe> officer isn't. He's thinking of subduing and arresting the_rnan or men.

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

She immediately decided that henceforth the curtains of her sitting-room should be drawn as usual. But what did it mean, that look?

The week following it was hermetically closed, but Constance more .than once caught a glimpse of the dejected figure, and she thought of speaking to her . uncle' to desire the man to go away. One evening he stood outside in a pouring rain gazing at the house long after the curtains were down, until Mrs. Hamilton grew deeply vexed with his folly. "It must be stopped," she said to herself, decidedly, and she concluded to go over and talk with Mrs. Fry.

"A, poor creetur as ever was," she said to Mrs. Hamilton, with a backward sweep to her head, indicating the man in the room she had left. "What's he be'n an' gone an' done but git cold a-etayin* out nights, an' me that's got everything to do has got to take care on 'im."' "Who is he?"

He'll do anything I ask him, hold Johnny by the hour, but if I didn't put him in his arms straight he'd just as quick hold him upside down. I'm good to him.

This belief grows from such cases, as that of Mrs. M. L. Davison of this place.

I was also bothered with Lame Back and I can only say that my back hasn't bothered me since I took Dodd's Kidney Pills." Considering that Mrs. Davison only took two boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills, the result would be considered wonderful if it were not mat others are re=- porting similar results daily.

He then gets all the money -he can together* say 80,000 rupees (a rupee Is,„33 cents), and puts all of it except 100 rupees away where no one can find it. With the 100 rupees he goes to a Judge of the court and telle him he wants to become bankrupt. The judge then calls all the lawyers together, likewise all the men to whom the white man owes money, and he says: This man is insolvent, but he wishes to give you all that he has got, so be has asked me to divide this 100 rupees among you all.' The judge thereupon gives the lawyers 90 rupees, and the remaining 10 rupees to the other men. Then the insolvent goes home to England." QhowinQ Wifely Devotion.

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

CONTINUED FROM LAST WEEK No one ot a mechanical t a r n of mind would visit Niagara without a trip to the power bouse where the waters of the Niagara are harnessed to furnish electric power, not only for tbat city but Buffalo and many otber outlying viUages and cities and the work has only just commenced. The plant consists of two beautifnl power bouses built of gray limestone and equipped with powerful dynamos run water famished by the nver above the fails. Much has been written in magazines and papers regardiug this but it must be seen to be appreciated. Briefly, two w'heelpits 180 feet deep were sunk in the solid reck and to these wheelpits an immence quantity of water is led by a great inlet. The water is dropped in mammoth steel penstocks, at the bottom of which is a turbine which develops the power. The water after serving its mission is carried away under the city of Niagara Falls in a tunnel over 7,000 feet long to discharge at the bottom of the gorge. The output ol" this company is now 85,000 horse power delivered from two enormous wheelpits and before the summer is over this amount will be increased by 20,000 more, most of which is already contracted for.

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

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

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

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

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

The asylum authorities claim that Mr. Page is doing well, and already shows improvement. His present trouble is laid to an attack of typhoid fever, which he went through many years ago. Liver complaint followed, trom which he has been bothered on and off ever since. A few weeks ago he was taken with another s4ck spell, and instead of going to his doctor, treated himself, with a result that he brought on an attack of what physicians call "auto-intoxication," in which the liver is swollen to twice Us normal size. This, the doctors say, brought on temporary insanity, and that when his physical condition improves his mind will again become normtU. Cyclone Sweyt. A cyclone struck on a farm a mile and a half north of Schoolcraft at 11 o'clock Monday morning and continued In a straight line southwest for five miles, tearing up all fences, trees, orchards and telephone wires in a path six rods wide. On the farm of Wm- Maile, a carriage house, jsheds and small buildings were blown to pieces. Chickens were killed and blown away. The house and large barn remain standing, but are twisted out of line. Doors were blown off and carried long distances.

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

The Japanese landed at the village of Meree, between Shepivan and Korsakovsk. The commander of the Russian detachment of troops at Korsakovks ordered the coast defense guns to be blown up and all the government buildings burned before retiring. The landing and its probable effect on the peace negotiations is the absorbing topic of conversation In all circles, the surrender of the Kniaz Potemkine having taken a secondary place.

In his presence she moved as in a dreem, but there was an ecstacy in once she shuddered at the thought of fulflmng this promise.

He followed her a moment with his eyes, then turned back into the house, with an expression of deep satisfaction expressed in his face. - Margolius waited patiently a few days.

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

Incidentally she constituted herself a bureau of supply and saw that he was supplied with everything aeedful—except dish towels. Somehow, no .matter ' how elaborate her shopping plans, she could not remember the towels and. for a while he was reduced) to using an old sheet. Then came a day when he rose in revolt and decided that he would keep house no longer. So far as the cooking was concerned he kept his word, and the cousin was invited to dine at a restaurant instead. The first evening the new order went into practice the cousin turned up, her face aglow.

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

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

Nevertheless I must find means to do so. If you again swerve from the question I shall have to ask his honor to cum ml L you for contempt uf court" "Contempt of cou't, sah!

The last terrible visitation of the plague In England was in 1664-60, by which 100,000 lives were lost In London alone. This epidemic was followed by the great fire of 1066, which destroyed 16,- 000 houses, including all the most densely populated portions of the city. The rebuilding of London with some regard to sanitary laws appears to g have put the first check on the epidemic diseases that had previously devastated its population. Geq.

My duty to the state, however, requires me to prove you guilty—that is, if I can. John, did you ever hear of the X ray?" ? "No, sah; I didn't neber hyar ob de X ray." "The X ray is a light by which we can look into a man's body and see what's there. Now, I'm going to determine your guilt or innocence of stealing a chicken last night. Your neighbor ha* testified to seeing you chop the head off a chicken this morning Just before breakfast. It Is to bepresumed that you ate this chicken. But we don't know that. I prepose to bring the X ray to bear on your stomach and determine If the chicken is there." John Randolph turned livid. So long as words couid be used to throw dust into the court's eyes he had maintained an air of injured innocence. "Now that science was to point out his guilt he quailed. But only for a moment. A sudden thought Seemed to strike him, and he braced- himself for a continuance of his case. . "Bring in the X ray apparatus," the attorney called to his assistant. An electric machine such as is used by Invalids was brought In and, to make it appear more impressive, was placed on four bottles.

Next Sunday dirge-like sounds proceeded from the organ, and the warden congratulated the player on the solemn and elevating effect of the music. "I am glad you like it," answered air. Smart.

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

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

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

ThT vote was exceedingly heavy. Pen pie generally estimated that 16,000 to 20,000 votes would be polled, but none thought that 24,000 ballots would be cast on the proposition. The great outpouring of voters was due to a great extent to the big machine which the saloon leaders had built up and which sailed under the name of the Los Angeles Business Men's Association. The saloons kept in the background. Never before had one-half the work been done in an election in Los Angeles.

The laughter became a,shriek when, on lifting the lid, he discovered a five dollar bill in stage money. As bravely as he could he faced th* storm of laughter and Jeering remarks which followed, but pot until he caught sight of Howell at the other end of the table, fairly convulsed with mirth, did he discover the secret of his undoing, for beside the joker, red and unsmiling, was his fare of the morning.

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

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

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

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

Mrs. Hamilton's first act after returning home and removing her wraps was to write to Swan and send him the three strands of hair, neatly gummed to a paper. "The hair," she wrote, "was combed from the head of a person resembling my husband in some respects. Do not mistake me. I do not believe the man to be Mr. Hamilton, but I wish to know that he is not. Please submit the hair to a specialist in such matters, if such a one can be found, and learn whether it has ever been dyed." Swan knew of no specialist in such matters, but he felt convinced that a practiced dealer in human hair might give him po4ntar,of elucidation. Accordingly he went to the large establishment of Springer & Hollis on Washington street, Boston, and as it •chanced was fortunate.enough to see Mr. Hollis and state his errand to him. "There is one person in this building on whose judgment you may rely. Ambrose, tell Mr. Hawkes to step this wax." a moment a quiet, gentlemanly lual made his way toward them, '.Hollis showed him the strands ', after introducing the detective bating his errand. Mr. Hawkes took it and disappeared with It for a few moments. When he handed fancied j y « n r said he, lnterrogatlYely. PHt has aerer been colored. K ts -the ^atoueJ shade?" "Ask what you wish," she answered with an effort. "Then perhaps you will tell me whether he seems to regard you with more than ordinary interest?" "I am afraid he does," and Mrs. Hamilton mentioned the fact of his having watched her house many times, but forbore to apeak of his glances at church, though not that he had touched her little girl's hair. Swan smiled a little, but looked puzzled. "I should dismiss the matter from my thoughts If I were you, madam," he said, after a Httle thought. "This nan evidently has no connection with the subject of your husband's disappearance. He has seen you and admired you, that is all." A simple solution of a great mystery, thought Constance, if only she could believe iL It looked plausible after she had thought of it awhile! and she was indignant with herself that she had allowed so slight a' matter to ruffle her, when she was already borne down by such heavy burdens. Primus Edes did not come to her house now. She never saw him except at church, and then he did not glance at her. But he did at Perley, and one Sabbath the boy surprised her by leaving her side and walking off with Primus .Edes. When reprimanded b'y his mother he only said: "Oh, I know him. I've seen him lots* and I like him. He has made me * hi*e, ajflfiMfrJhe?! A|,jpp#fc4aa •» ship for ase." "But is? he a good man, Perley?" asked she1, seriously. "Oh, yea. He says I must a&ind my gv*»N.. -AIM. »•£». . . . , any sound she might hear from the direction of the woods. Clare had cried herself to sleep on the sofa, and Mr. Carter walked nervously about the yard and down to the edge of the woods a score of times. "I wonder where Edes went. I didn't see him with the men," he said to Constance. "Did you not?" she asked, lifting a white-face to his for a moment. "He seemed confident he could find Perley, uncle." "So he did. Constance. Well, the night is warm, and Perley won't be apt to suffer much except in his feelings," said Mr. Carter as cheerfully as he could. "Oh, but my baby cut in the dark woods all alone!" and a rush of tears checked her words. Mr. Carter choked at the thought and started off again down the street, this time fojlowed bj Constance, who fancied she saw lights coming toward the village". ' Yes, lights, and shouts, and cheers. "They have found him," cried Mf. Carter, hurrying away, and Constance, faint with sudden joy, though she almost feared to give it room, was forced to loiter for a moment. Not many rods away now came the tramp of forty men and boys who held their torches high above their heads and made the village ring with a prolonged shout as soon as they left the woods and entered it. Mrs. Hamilton, with wildly beating heart, was at the Nicholas II. is at Peterhof, on the Gulf of Finland. An angular, ugly tower, painted muddy yellow, topped by an eagle-crowned flagstaff, is all that can be seen of his abode. All that can be seen of his court is an unromantle individual in shirtsleeves, brushing his hair before a looking glass.ia_ the tower window. It needs keen eyes and a field glass to see even these. The shore at Peterhof is muddy, stone strewn, flat and overgrown with weeds. To bathe one must go several hundred yards from the shore. Straight in front of the palace, running half a mile into the sea, is a flimsy wooden pier, and on this pier—one at the end and one half way along—are two blue-roofed bathing boxes used by the czar's Immediate family. From the shore the whole process can be seen; and Peterhof takes advantage of the occasion by crowding to the waters' edge and exclaiming excitedly when the late grand duchesses trot along the pier to the nearest bathing box. The precautions taken for the czar's safety are wonderful. Workingmen whose antecedents are unknown are not allowed to settle either in old or new Peterhof. The names of all prospective lodgers or boarders must first tie suDmittett ttrthepolice: -For nearly a quarter of a mile along the west wail of the park trees and shrubs have been cut down in order to give the sentries a clear line of vision and thus it will be impossible for marauders to climb the walls.

DOG INCAPABLE OF DECEIT. Nature Such That He Cannot Hide His Emotions. "There is one peculiar thing about dogs," remarked a well known local fancier and huntsman, "and that Is you never saw one pant and wag his tall at the same time. A dog is not capable of a double emotion. He can't growl and wag his" tail at the same time, for it is impossible for him to be mad at one end and glad at the other. "If a dog is glad to see his master he will bark and wag his tail. If he wants to get into the house he will paw at the door, whine and wag his tail, but they are all symptoms of one and the same emotion. But if his master opens the door he will ceast. to show anxiety immediately by whin ing and will show pleasure only bj the wagging of his tail. "In order to get a man's tempet one must watch his eyes, but for s dog's you have to watch his tail. Thdog Is likewise incapable of deceit and hence he is nothing of a politician.

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

Where the Foods Come From. , "Look here, waiter, honest now, don't you dip every one of theie flaked breakfast foods out of the same box?" "Well, yes, boss, we duz, all 'cept Grape-Nuts, cause that don't look like the • others and people know 'zackly what Grape-Nuts looks like. But there's 'bout a dozen different ones named on the bill of fare and they are all thin rolled flakes so it don t make any difference which one a man calls for, we }U3t take out the order from one box." This talk led to an investigation Dc::=n3 of factories sprung up about thrfla yaara agn, mnlHttg v a r l n n s VjndS !

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

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