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

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

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

His daughters are on the verge of madness. The tragedy occurred on the farm of Leon Cribley, 11 miles east of. Mu&kckegon, in Egleston township. James and George Cribley were put to bed early, and at 9 o'clock, just as their father was preparing for bed a loud crash reached his ears. Rushing to the stairway he threw open the door and was met by a stifling wave of heat and flame. Through the flames he co^lrf see the small forms of his babies clasped in each others arms and crying at the top of their voices. With an almost superhuman effort he rushed through, the flames but was driven back, his face burned and his hair blazing. Two hours after the farm house was burned to the ground, and at 5 o'clock this morning the smouldering fire was sufficiently quenched to permit a search. Where the bedroom fell were found small bones, one skull* one jawbone and several teeth. The father spent the night rushing about and giving wild orders, Early this morning he jetlred to the granery and has locked himself up. He has completely lost his reason and Is in an exhausted state. His two daughters are nearly as bad. The family was composed of ten children and the father.

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

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

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

It must be with peculiar satisfaction that the people of Japan contemplate the seizure of Sakholin island. For the first time Japanese troops have come into actual possession of Russian soil.

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

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

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

"You must remember that what we call principle **partakes of education. The Greeks"— "Bother the Greeks. What had they to do with us?" There was a brief silence. Evidently the hair splitting was over. Presently he said: "We shall not hereafter be quite so free to enjoy these walks together, for"~ "Evidently not."

Acetylene is already taking its place as an illumlnant for towns from a : central plant, for lighting houses, churches, schools and isolated buildings of all kinds, and it is being used successfully for many other purposes.

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

Since the first visit to the ice cap of the South Pole was made, some fifty years ago, there has been a steady recession of the belt of some thirty miles, and it is argued that in the course of time it will be possible to make approach to the pole itself, and that the land in that vicinity miy even become inhabited CHANGED HUSBAND. Wife Made Wise Change in FnncL. Change of diet is the only way to really cure stomach and bowel trouble. A woman says: "My husband had dyspepsia when •j* were married and had suffered from it for several years. It was almost impossible to find anything he could eat without bad results. "I thought this was largely due to the u s e of coffee and persuaded him to discontinue it. He did so, and be- ;gan to drink Postum Food Coffee. The -change did him good from the beginning, his digestion improved; he suffered much less from his nervousness, and \.hen he added Grape-Nuts food to his diet he was soon entirely cured. "My friend, Mro. — , of Vicks- T>urg (my former home) had become a nervous wreck also from dyspepsia. Medicines had no effect, neither did travel help her. Or* my last visit home, some months ago, I persuaded her to -use Grape-Nuts food. She was in dergpalr, and consented- She stuck to it •until U restored her health so completely that she is now the most enthusiastic friend of Grape Nuts that I ever knew. She eats it with cream or dry, Just as it comes from the package— keeps it in her room and eata it wh<m» •ever she feels like it. "I began eating Grape-Nuts food, myself, when my baby was two months old, and I don't know what. I -should have done without it. M7 appetite was gone, I was weak and nervous and afforded but very little nourishment for the child. The Grape-Nuts food i of which I scon grew very fond, speedily set all this right again, and the baby grew healthful, rosy and beautiful as a mother could wish, He is two years old now and eats Orape- Nuts food himself, t wish every tired yott.AfmQther know o f thjr fo6d • that -Grape-Nuts would do her.'1"" """"•' Names given by Postum Co* -Battle •Greek, Mich. There's t ratafia. er "Why?" "Because it begun 'dear husband,' an' was signed 'your lovin' wife,' an' he told me himself he never was married. So it stands to reason." "What did she write?" asked Mrs. Hamilton, led on. by her curiosity in spite of herself. "Oh, she was lonesome without him, an' wanted him to come home an' set- Whoever 'twas wrote to, ortor gone back to her, for you could see, plain as could be, she set her life by him." "Do you recollect the name signed to it?" "No, I don't. I've forgot it. Seem's if 'twas L or S it began with; jest one name it was.'^ "L, you say. Was it Lenora?" for that name would live in her consciousness forever, she thought. "Why, I did not know he could play like that?" she said, as the wonderful 8train s ceased. "Yes, an' It's only lately he's took it up," said Mrs. Fry; "so he says." "Is it possible!" said Constance. As she took her way homeward the passionate strains followed her until she reached her own door, and she knew that he must have opened his window so that she might hear him. Strange, Inexplicable man! Would he have left her as Vane did with those mysterious journeys all unexplained? Ah! but to doubt her husband now with the clods of suspicion weighting him down, with speculation clouding his sainted memory! Down on her knees went Constance at the thought, and she prayed fervently to be set right, to have taken from her all that interfered with her husband's memory! But even while she prayed sweet strains seemed to importune her to listen, and the sad, haunting eyes of Primus Edes to be looking into her very soul. The iacts of Mrs. Hamilton's presents to him had just become known in the neighborhood, and even reached to the ears of the Rev. Arthur Hammerly, who had lately been venturing to speculate how soon he might approach Mrs. Hamilton with some little attention whose, gentle office it might he tr> fix hpr regard upon hlnv self. Staring past them both at the gleaming marble, cated, Edes could not write a legible f letter if he tried. His education must have been terribly neglected, he once said to Mrs. Fry with an air of extreme candor, and this remark she repeated to the detective. "Oh, he's just what he seems, you may be sure of that," she said. "Then you are willing to help prove it, I suppose,"^said the wily detective, to Primus Edes, but to others, among "Yes, I am."7 "Well, then, if you ever find a scrap of writing, never so small, I want you to send it to me. I.will leave an addressed and stamped envelope," and he handed her an envelope prepared as he said. 'I'll do as you say, but it will be a long time before you see this wrapper, I guess," she answered, with.a smile at his folly. But strange to say the good woman was mistaken, for the day following Swan's departure Mrs. Hamilton called in to see her. She .found Mrs. Fry at work mending the lining to an old coat. "You find me to work. I've threatened an' threatened to take a day for the last month to mend up Edes' things. Why, his clo'es is all off his back. You never did see!" Mn, Fry was given to exaggeration. "An' to think," she said a moment later, "after all I said to that detective feller, thai I should find a letter In the linin' of the first coat I took to mend." "A letter!" . . . . . . . „•„ ^ . . . , *^.!**s> crjwrdji wgyjfctQ. the cower of the llnin'; went through the hole 4a H W*s*t1» the l e t t * . * "Twa'n't that, I'm pretty sure. I've a good mind to open that letter. I will, if you say so." "Oh, no; I have no right to it, anyway, and I am ashamed of my curiosity." And so the letter went away, freighted with a writing portentous in meaning and possibilities, not alone them the stately lady whose hand had touched that very packet. CHAPTER X. The Cashier's Return. Eight months had slipped away since the mysterious disappearance of whereabouts had been received. Grovedale, meanwhile, was busying itself, as small active villages are apt l o do, over a scandal of its own. And Constance was the subject of It. Strange that the high-bred, reserved woman should give cause of it; but she did. For her infatuation for the illiterate workman, known as Primus Edes, was only too evident to any one who chose to investigate the matter. She had cot meant to succumb to the strange fascination that Primus Edes from the first seemed to Impress upon her faculties by his fancied resemblance to her husband. It had grown insensibly, and after he brought her boy back to her and, tintderly carried him home, she felt tbat He heard of the strange infatuation said to exist in the mind of Mrs. Hamilton for a humble workman at her uncle's mill. Mr. Hammerly remembered him. A man of downcast, brooding habit, quiet and orderly of demeanor, but with nothing, it would seem, to attract the regard of a woman like Constance Hamilton. Stay! Did he not resemble her hus band siightlyl__Cej;tajnly he did. Mr Hammerly .could see it if nobody else did. If Mrs. Hamilton noticed him in any way it was because of this. Mr. Hammerly called to see her that day, and left her with a warmer pressure of the hand than usual. But her thoughts were otherwise occupied and she did not notice it. Thus matters stood. Constance swayed by a strong emotion; two men. by dreams of love and its fulfilment; a towering monument sometimes glistening 'neath the grudging winter sunlight, but oftener merely gleaming purely, frostily white, with its full inscription now, Vane Hamilton, and ready for the cemetery when spring should open; a carping, prosaic village, with buying and selling and eating and sleeping going on as it will to the end, while just outside its limits and that of the present an astounding event was walking straight toward it in the person of a tall, handsome, li^ht-haired man who alighted, unnoticed, from the train one afternoon in February. le was passing by the marb,lo 00 IB.

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

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

The aching was bad in the day time, but just as bad at night, and I was always lame in the morning. I was bothered \ with rheumatic pains and dropsical swelling of the feet.

The machine swerved, Maloney, with one hand loose, swas seen trying to right it, but after a moment's hesitation it turned over and plunged earthward. Maloney was still living when found, but with nearly every bone in his body broken, died in an hour. The aeroplane was reduced to splinters. N E W S I N BRIEF.

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

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

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

What makes the crime unparalleled in the annals of murder in the city is the boldness with which it w a / executed, the almost incredible brutality with which the helpless victim was slain and the large amount of booty that was secured. It was, as Capt. MC' Donnell summarized it: / "We have had bank robberies where larger amounts of rnoney and valuables have been secured, but no personal injury "was )hdieted. We have had brutal murders but no large loot was obtained. The present crime, however, is a combination of both; which, therefore, makes it the worst crime ever committed in the city." The very hour of the murder suggests Rs boldness.

"Peace on the Japanese terms as outlined by Mr. Sato." says the Russ, which is the first paper to comment seriously on the Sato interviews, "can only be an armistice." The (Russ, which has now the largest liberal following,'finds the Japanese demands far from moderate and sees little chance of the conference ending auccessfurly, if Mr. Sato has corerctly stated the Japanese position, but it appears to believe that Baron Komura'a spokesman Is acting "on his own responsibility," or scents a possible Muff to pave the way for the acceptance of actual and more moderate terms by Japan. Girls Were Brave. The help of the Toledo fire brigade had to be invoked to quell a serious fire which threatened to burn down the whole town of Dundee. Thursday. The losses are: Moore's Hvery, 14,000; insured, $1,200: Hitchens, $3,000. insured for $300; Mrs. Brlndel, $1,000, insurance $300; Pulver, $700, no insurance.' The telephone system and electric light plant are knocked out of commission for a few days. The cause of the fire is unknown. During the fire Mrs. Herbert Hitchens and her 13- year-oldj sister, Kittle Aton, performed an act of heroism that undoubtedly saved many lives.

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

That ia to sep» arate from their growing boys, to send thew to the school ot life outside the home and into situations where they must look after themselves. The mother's happiness Is complete only with her children around her. Let life not keep them too much apart. From this arise too fearsome Ideas. of distance and a too timid attachment to the natal soil or the maternal city. The difficulty is that it Is very reluctantly admitted amoug the Freuch that the time must come for the neatllug to use its owu wlugs.

"This gas Is an anaesthetic," be explains, "and has, Indeed, been employed as such, both locally and otherwise. This prop erty of carbonic acid may be termed a merciful provision of nature. Normal death Is a painless occurrence, usually preceded by gradual loss, of consciousness entailing no more suffering than going to sleep. The accumulation of this merciful gas often Induces muscular contraction or spasms, which are preceded by loss of consciousness, but which may have suggested to uncritical observers that their moribund subject was in agony. # » ^ > ^ » V M H > V l ^ .

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

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

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

Question followed question, and in course of time ha was asked, "Do you believe in realism?" "Now. that," replied Jefferson, "Is vwy much like a question I'm often aaked after a performance.

"In the spring of 1896 my wife was taken with violent vomiting which we had great difficulty in stopping. "It seemed to come from coffee drinking but we could not decide. "In the following1 July, however, she was attacked a second time by the -vomiting. I was away from home filling an appointment, at the time, and on my return I found her very low; she had literally vomited herself almost to death, and it took some days to quiet the trouble and restore her stomach. "I had also experienced the same trouble, but not so violently, and had relieved it, each time, by a resort to medicine. "But my wife's second attack satisfled me that the use of coffee was at the bottom of our troubles, and so we •topped it forthwith and took on Postum Food Coffee. The old symptoms of disease disappeared find during the 9 years that we have been using Postum instead of coffee we have never had a recurrence of the vomiting.

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

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

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

The bloody and cruel murder of Pawnbroker Mover, in Detroit, between 6 and 7 o'clock on Friday, the 28th of July, and the escape of the murderers with the' valuable Jewelry and diamonds, for which they had committed the crime, seemed to baffle all attempts of the police to take •Ihamr-OT W d * y - t * m e the B t a r t U a g - l ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ s o n o i ^ news that two men had been arrested J S P ^ * ? ™ * ?

The Cleveland police are reticent about the source of :heir Information that the two men were in that city, but that they had i "straight tip'' seems very evident It is said the "tip" came from a pawnbroker with whom one of the men :rled to pawn some jewelry. They gave their names as Harry Parker and Harry Johnson. They had just $22.16 in their possession and both were attired In natty black suits, tresh from the store. About $3,500 was the value put on Moyer"s goods. The valuation of the property found in the possession of the suspects will reach that amount, it. is thought, whpn inventoried at the nr.jce_s .flxei. on the stolen property. theT hp^r opof^s' ^tpo f*a™st e»n» rtch et htnetr ritbhleev chriamvee r>n the two men who can be traced as leaving Detroit for Cleveland on the D. & C. boat the night the crime was committed; that they visited Buffalo and returned to Cleveland, where they were arrested and many other evidences. From the boy who saw the murderers escape over Moyer's rear fence, from the Ohio men, lately located by the police, who also say they saw this escape; from the boat official who can identify Johnson and Parker who left Detroit on the Cleveland boat a few hours after the murder, and from other more or less trustworthy sources will come the identifications which may fasten the crime upon the two Cleveland suspects. Two women pickpockets, known to the Detroit police and the Cleveland department, are said to have made the trip to Cleveland with Parker and Johnson, and to have talked with the men on the boat, cannot be found at present, but when picked up are expected to be used in identification of the suspects. It is thought they were working partners of the crboks The manner of the escape of the two men, after they emerged from the alley and ran out on Randolph street, where they disappeared from the view of those who saw them leave the alley, will probably never be revealed. In spite of this cordon of officers, the men, unnoticed, walked aboard the D. & C. steamer and went down the river even while the officers were searching every conceivable spot for brought into the station. The manner in which the men so boldly walked down to the dock and boarded the steamer bears out the supposition that they had all arrangements made whereby they could discard their bloody clothing and don other, garments, effectually hiding all evidence of the struggle they had had with the unfortunate Moyer, when he was struck down. Stolen Papers Returned. Lieutenant of Detectives Lally of Detroit has been the recipient of a mysterious package, the contents of which proved to be a number of checks, notes and otnet important papers, aggregating in value oyer $25,- 000. It appears that a few weeks ago the office of the Crystal Salt company at St, Clair, Mich., was entered by burglars wfio blew the saf£ Very little cash was stolen, but all of the firm's papers, books, checks, notes, etc., were carried away. Weeks have passed since and the firm had already given up hope of the recovery of their property. Now the burglars, evidently realizing that they cannot dispose of their booty, have returned it to Mr. Lally, who sent it back to t&e firm in St. Clair.

If you happen by accident _|o_hold It a few seconds too feng, <fce <t*rer will be missed. Sanitary Conditions Good. Secretary Shumway, of the state board of health, Is firmly convinced that the sanitary conditions at Alma college were in. no wise responsible for the outbreak of typhoid fever which resulted from a banquet served at the Institution in Jane. He says there is nothing to show that the college was in any way to blame for the - outbreak, as the premises* are In good condition and the water supply above suspicion. »;.-...

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

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

Water sufficient to develop nearly five hundred thousand horse-power continuously, twenty-four hours per day, for industrial purposes, is now being taken from the river above the Fails, and further developments requiring more water are contemplated. Probably the largest user of the electricity produced by the waters of the mighty river is the concern which by the five or six thousand degree heat of the electric furnace brings lime and coke into unwilling union, thereby producing what Is known as Calcium Carbide* pry calcium carbide is lifeless as so much broken rock, but" in contact with water it springs into activity and begets abundantly the gas Acetylene. The light resulting from the ignition of acetylene is the nearest approach to sunlight known. These facts, though of comparatively recent discovery, were soon seized by men with an eye to the commercial possibilities and to-day calcium carbide is being shipped everywhere and used for dispelling darkc e s s i n buildings of all descriptions, from the ordinary barn of the farmer to the country villa of the wealthy, as well aa for lighting Jthe_jtrj^ts_oija large number of towns.

Ten. thousand visitors invaded the 6oVt«. take part in the celebration, which; began a t . sunrise -Wednesday, morning, when the government ships boomed a salute. The United States had, assembled all its available craft for the occasion,, the most formidable of wh|ch was the Yantlo* manned by the naval reserves., The naval parade proved to be an exceedingly pretty sight, all the government vessels, in* eluding revenue cutters,- tenders and tugs, being; gaily decorated. Vice- President Fairbanks, Senator Burrows and a number of invited guests boarded the revenue cutter Tuscorara, which acted as the flagship of the fleet, while Gov. Warner and his staff, the legislative delegation and a number of ladies were on the revenue cutter Morrill. Then came the steamer Philadelphia, carrying Attorney-General Lemieux, the official representative of the Dominion government. The other craft in line were the patrol boat Mackinac,, supply boats Marigold, Amaranth and Sumac, and the tugs Schenck, Merrlckr General, W . A . Rooth and W. H. Seymour. The land parade took place iu the afternoon, Charles T. Harvey, who constructed the original Michigan lock in 1855, acting as grand marshal, and he was given an euthusiastic reception. Vice-President Fairbanks and Gov. Warner drove to the reviewing stand and each was the object of a good deal of attention from the crowd.

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

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

Y., dispatch: A Wabash passenger train was derailed three miles west of Buffalo. Five coaches were turned over. Seven passengers "•»rp ininred. none of them seriously. f One of the most remarkable of all the mental processes is memory. How are sight pictures a n * sound picture* and other imnrosslonf stored in the mind, and how are we able to recall them? Here, again, we are in the presence of a wonderful miracle, and at best we can, only seek to make clear the fact by illustration and comparison/ There are certain bodies possessed of a property known as phosphorescence. After having been exposed to daylight for a time, these bodies give off light In the dark. They store up certain portions of the sunbeam, and give them off again. This is a sort of a physical memory. These phosphorescent bodies simply continue in the dark that which they do in the sunlight. In some way the impressions made throug hthe eye, ear and other senses induce such actions and changes in the nerve cells which are connected with these organs that under the right sort of stimulus the same action may be reproduced, and brought within the range of Consciousness;—This roproductlon of past impressions is secured through the connection of that porttion of the brain which is the seat of consciousness with other portions in which impressions are stored by means of the delicate nerve branches previously described. The numerous connections of these nerve fibers bring them in direct or indirect association with all the different parts of the brain. In trying to remember, one often is conscious of an effort, and the brain may he very much wearied; la a long-continued effort to recall impressions which have been partially effaced. The mental effort consists in energizing the fibers so as to make them project forward their delicate endings, thus making numerous contacts, perhaps millions, with different calls, until by and by the particular cell or group of cells in wtlcn the desired word or other impression was made is recognized. When one is weary, it Is often difficult, sometimes impossible, to recall names or data of various sorts which may be entirely familiar. This is because of the impossibility of energizing the nerve cells sufficiently to make the desired contacts. Anything which benumbs the nerves, as alcohol, tobacco, tea, coffee, opium, may have the effect to benumb the nervous sensibility and lessen nervous energy, and thus operate deleteriously upon memory. Memory, however, Is perhaps most seriously injured by loss of sleep, wherebv- JH-atn enorgry becomes ftihausted. Sometimes the memory may be for the time being almost entirely effaced by long-continued loss of sleep. Depreciation of memory in old age is one of the first indications of failing mental power. It Is interesting to note, however, that the memory of events which happened in early life are often remembered, while others of recent occurrence quickly pass from the mind.

Why," said the genial and opulent livery stable proprietor, as he rolled the big black cigar to a slightly -^iffer^Bt-asgle-betwe^iJ^iL^et^h, ^\t was kind o' funny. - "You «ee, I had a largo family, all girls, nice girls, all of them, and naturally they all had a good deal of company, and they used to go a good deal, and to a good many places they went to they had to have carriages; and my carriage bill was something frightful, for me. "I was doing a fair sort of a business, very fair, in fact, but I couldn't by any means afford to keep a carriage myself, and every month that carriage bill for my daughters used to bite a frightful hole into my income. And finally that Set me to thinking. "I'm not the only man in the world, I says to myself, with a bunch of fine daughters. The world is full of fine daughters, I says to myself, belonging to fine families that want 'em to make as good a show as anybody and all hiring carriages for 'em. "Why shouldn't i^make, myself, the profit on the business that my daughters would bring to a stable, a pretty fair sort of a business in itself, or at least a sure starter, and do business for other people's daughters, too? "That's all there was to it. I was certafir-of some-busteeee and I waa= willing to take a chance on the rest. "And PTprythlng went all right. My daughters gave me all their patronage, and they used more carriages now than they ever had before—they said they wanted to see their father do well, and I got my full share of the patronage of other people's daughters, and the volume of It was great. "In the course of tftatt my daughters all married and they all 4W well; very comfortably, to say the least, i w y one of them now keeps a carriage ef her own, and keeps it in my stable; and so the girls, nice girls, every eat, that once cost me so much, though t never begrudged 'em a cent of it, now send me money, every one. "Their business alone is something tidy, but they are really only a few of many profitable customers, and I have never regretted taking up the livery business. "But it was sort of funny, now, how I came to go into it, wasn't it?" PEACE ENVOYS. THE RUSSIAN HIGH GUNS VISIT THE PRESIDENT. Serglus -Wltte and Baron Rosen, Russian envoys to the peace comerence, whose powers are so great that they could end the war in twenty-four hour3, were guests Friday of the president and Mrs. Roosevelt at Sagamore Hill. They arrived in Oyster Bay over the Long Island railroad. They were unaccompanied by any other Russian officials. As the envoys alighted from their car they were met by confidential messengers, from the president's official household and escorted to one of the president's carriages sent to the station to_convey them to Sagamore Hill. A considerable crowd of residents of the village had assembled at the station to see the distinguished visitors.

It appears that the excavations have revealed a most complete water system in the buried city, so perfect in fact, was the plumbing in that day and so well has it been preserved that since the ruins were uncovered, all that was necessary to use the system was to turn on the water again and it flows through the pipes today as nicely as in any city in this country.—Register ^ l i h o a g h A B h i l a d e l p h i a ^ o c t o i ' ! * ! * * d ! ° £ ^ ° r e - p r i c e 25c> has been able to sew up a man, s heart it is not likely that women with broken hearts will go to him in preference to the civil courts.

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

If a man receives a "revelation" to take to himself a plural wife it is easily confirmed by the church and he-is- justified in posessing any number of wives and he cannot sin "for they belong to him." This vulgar document is put above the words of Him who taught man to love but one woman and forsaking all others to cleave only unto her. But, you say, there is the "Manefesto". So I said when I enjtered Utah now I tell you that the manefesto issued by the late President Woodruff supposed to prohibit plural marriages not only has news been included in the Doctrine and Covenants but never actually forbade it, tne words of the manefesto reading, My advice to the Latter day Saints is to refrain from contracting any marriage forbidden by the law of the land.

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

I feel the same toward you. It is you who are changed." He arose and looked for his hat and gloves. "I will go to the hotel for the prese n t Is that your wish, Constance?" She bowed her head and jmurmurei something about "changes to be made." " "What do you mean, Constance, by 1 "niinji innu*p r ar mained after Mr, Carter went to ojs office and the children to school for a meeting of the bank directors has been called at ton* o'clock at his own residence. In the hour of waiting .there was much serious conversation between husband and wife. At last he said. "I can see you doubt me. I have been gone so long; so many troubles have intervened they have tended to set you apart from me. Is not that so?" "Perhaps so." "Then I would not have you do violence to your feelings^I will stay here —it is better so for many reasons; but you shall live your own life until such a time as you can truly feel that you love me as you once did. I want to be hear the children, I want to be near you, Constance. May I? May I have the. room next to your uncle's?" "Yes." "And will you try to love me again?" he asked gently, yet with an eagerness he could not quite conceal. •<• "Love cannot be forced," she answered. "But it will come in time if you will let it." But suddenly, evidently recollecting some resolution he had made, he checked himself and. said no more, while Constance sat idly turning-over the leaves of a book until she saw the bank officers coming5 up the street. Then-she arose ta g o _ =_„: , _ _ Prpslrtftnt HartweU and eight trustees, with Tony Osborn, soon entered. The new cashier, or treasurer, was not present. Mr. Hamilton's manner was very cordia* aad easy. Well as the several gentlemen thought they knew him, they were not prepared for so much composure and freedom from nervousness. A rUmor of lost- identity as the sequel of his mysterious absence had already, reached them, early as it was in the day; and they were, therefore, prepared to listen without interruptions or exclamations, until he had — i• • • . i * ii • i. • e« i> mmt ii m~ »• ••! f*m*n• • tM • I I ' ^ ' B W I i Mr. Simon Low's letter In regard to Hamilton's having presented one of toem to the National Bank in Boston. What could have been harder to bear than this if he were guilty? they thought, as they watched him gravelystudying theynotes and letters. "The forgery was cleverly done," be said, handing them back. "I could never have detected it any more than Low did, and Low is above suspicion, of course. No doubt the matter is just as he states it. A men resembling me, doubtless, presented the note." "But it was you who came to the bank, anyway." It was Tony who spoke, at first seemingly with a little doubt clinging to bis mind. But the anyway he brought out boldly, almost defiantly, as he looked at Mr. Hamilton, who for a moment lost his composure. He did not answer at once, and when he did it was in a hesitating way. "I cannot dispute you, Tony. Would to Heaven I could. But consider this. If it was I who came there, should I not have come home? would not my footsteps have unconsciously brought me to my own door?" "Perhaps not," said Mr. Taylor, a quiet man who had not before spoken. "I have read of instances of dual life where everything is changed. Memory is a thing apart from consciousness. It is said to be a function of matter to be impressed with its own actions. When an action ha«been repeated many times, or evetr^ once, strongly, the memory of it becomes stamped upon a little cell of the brain, and the stamp dominates the cell.

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

A cordon of armed guards will 1>e placed around the city, guarding all roads and intervening points and no person will be allowed to pass in unless he holds a written permit from the Memphis board of health. It is estimated that the cost of the shotgun quarantine will approximate $50,000, which amount is expected to be raised by popular subscription.

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

The Senator, who always wears a short coat and carries his right hand In his trousers' pocket, with his left ready to emphasize his words, by shaking his forefinger, leaned against the cloak-room ^door, meditatively rolling a cigar between his lips. One of the three best-dressed men In the Senate approached. The forefinger rose, and the Senator remarked: "I have a friend who would give you a hundred dollars for that vest, if he could only set eyes on it." "Take me to him at once," said the other. "He shall set eyes on !t forthwith and have it C. O. P." "I wlBh he could," said (he Senator sadly; "but he's been stone-blind tor twenty years."—The Sunday Magazine, Four Indicted. Chas. E.

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

Forwarding a photo cf a splendidly handsome and healthy young boy, a happy mother writes from an Ohio town: "The enclosed picture shows my 4- year-old Grape-Nuts boy. "Since he was 2 years old he has eaten nothing but Grape-Nuts. He demands and gets this food three times a day. This may seem rather unusual, but he does not care for anything else after he has eaten his Grape-Nuts, which he uses with milk or cream, and then he is through with bis meal. Even on Thanksgiving day he refused turkey and all the good things that make up that great dinner, and ate his dish of Grape-Nuts and cream with the best results and none of the evils that the other foolish members of the family experienced.

Mull's GrapeTonic (FREE) FOR Hot Weather Dangers CONSTIPATION STOMACH AND BOWEL TROUBLE No one with regular bowels and healthy stomach can contract disease. A person with Constipation and Stomach Trouble is always the first to succumb to Sun Stroke, Heat Debility and Prostration. Cholera, Colic and Diarrhea are more fatal in Hot Weather because vitality is lower—they are the direct result of Constipation. It is a mistake to suddenly check diarrhea, the danger is Blood Poison. A physic is also dangerous as it weakens the patient"and reduces vitality. Treat the cause with Mulls Grape Tonic. Constipation and its attending ills are caused by decaying or dying bowels and intestines—Mull's Grape Tonic revives and strengthens the Bowels so that they are enabled to act naturally and eject the poison from the system, everybody should take it during hot weather.

OPERA HOUSE \ SUNDAY, AUG. 2 0 Divine Worship and Sermon at The Huron river power scheme is assuming more definite form and the time is not far distant when the power will be utilized to furnish electric light for Wayne, Delray and perhaps Detroit. That the Huron was the source of the best of water power has long been known but it rested for the North American company to work out the plan and much has been said in this and other papers concerning their operations during the past year. It requires lots of money and time to work out this gigantic scheme but that it will be done seems a certainty and m the near future now. This syndicate is capitalized at $30, 000.000 and it is backing the scheme to dam the Huron at intervals between Lakeland and Gedde's and compel it to run the machinery for the manufacturing ng ooft eelleeccttrriicc ity which will be distributed to the industries that need it which may be situated within aiadius small enough to permit of such distribution economically from a central plant.

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

HAPPENINGS D E S P I T E CONFESSIONS MURDERERS PLEAD "NOT GUILTY," LITTLE DETROIT GIRL DECAPITATED -BY STREET CAR. THE FREDERIC MURDER CASE AND ITS LATEST PHASE8. New Jersey is making a strenuous war on-mosquitoes, but there will be enough of them left, undoubtedly, to convey the idea. Being an inland country saves Switzerland a lot of trouble. She hasn't even been invited to take part in the Moroccan Conference. Col. Mann has bounced his managing editor. Evidently the colonel had -=^«a^on_iiLJmsp€£LJhat something was the matter somewhere. Unless the "Fads and Fancies" book contains at least one chapter on monkey dinners it cannot be considered a really representative work. Both Plead Not Guilty. Harry Parker and Harry Johnson, the two men charged with the murder of Joseph Moyer, the Detroit pawnbroker, were taken into the recorder's coTTft Salui day uwraiug-andawaigaedon a charge of murder, to which both pleaded "not guilty." Both men deny having made a confession of the murder to the police and Parker puts on a defiant air and seems to delight in the public gaze. His alrt of bragadocio is almost disgusting. There was some bickering over the appointment by the court of an attorney to defend the men, but the selection of Thomas O'Hara resulted. While Johnson is phlegmatic, Parker plays to the grand stand at every opportunity. "I must be a great drawing card," he said. "This is the first time in my life that I was shown so much attention- I am glad that the people want to see me. Pretty soon I am, going to sell tickets on the outside. I think I could make some money that way." Laughingly he returned to his cell and refused to discuss any other featu r e o f his case. The next move in the case will be to fix a"lay for ThT iriaL_.____. If we are to be given many such plays as "Alicesit-by-the-flre" and "All-of-a-sudden-Peggy" it will become necessary to star the hyphen. Most, of the land on earth having been apportioned, some of the powers are now beginning to quarrel over spheres of influence on the ocean. . Although a small nation, Holland bears more than its share of the white man's burden. A Dutch expedition has just killed: 260 natives of Celebes? Quite possibly it is a wise provision of nature that most millionaires are disinclined to -work. If they were not, we might be affected with billionaires. That Massachusetts letter carrier who has been in the service fifty years has probably delivered love letters enough to make a thousand cyclopedias. Col. Mann says they sent all over the world for hides to bind "Fads and Fancies." How foolish! Why not use the hides of the subscribers they skinned? E. ht. riarrlman sa>b "H:eie are too <1—d many reporters." He is enthusiastically supported in this opinion by Nicholas Romanoff and Samuel W. Fennypacker.

Chitd Decapitated. Wishing to be just as brave as the other children in the neighborhood, Ruth Henderson, not quite 2 years old, lay down in an excavation between the street car rails at Myrtle street and Wabash avenue, Detroit, and when the first car came along she raised her head in time to be decapitated. When the car crew found her her body and curly head were several feet apart. The street car company has been repairing the tracks along Myrtle street. The children have dared each other to lie down in one of the excavations and allow a oar to pass over them. Several children did so and were uninjured, so Ruth toddled out on the tracks and lay down Tn~The hoie as sire~b:ad seen the boys do, and the motorman did not see her.

Important information, implicating a married man, is alleged to have been given out by Mrs. Naomi Aldrich, the woman brought from, Frederic and placed in the Crawford county jail on suspicion of having poisoned her two little boys to get a meager $100, the amount of the insurance 'she had taken out on their lives.

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

Absolute secrecy is being preserved as to the nature of the twelve points that M. Witte says will have to be disposed of by the conference. That which was taken up today, however, is believed to have had reference to the evacuation of Manchuria, as it will be the policy of the conference to dispose of less important questions before the disposition of Saghallen is taken up and the question of indemnity Is taken up. The indemnity will be taken up last, and it will be upon this that the hard- ,rst fight will be waged. , Had'the session ended in a disagreement, )' was feared for nine long hours that it would, the en<J*of the effort to restore peace would have been reached and tomorrow would have witnessed two armies in Manchuria on the move.

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

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

A world-wide reputation is enjoyed by the "Christ carvers" of Oberammergau, as they are called.

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

United States attorney general Moody is looking up the United States criminal code of laws with a view of having them revised by congress, but it seems to the ordiuary observer that what we need more than a revision of the laws is a set of official that will inforce some of the laws we already have, as there seems to be a number of cases for somebody to prosecute about now.—Fowlerville Review. ing yisitcd Miss Mabel Sigler.

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

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

Front St., Philadelphia, Peon. two hundred years ago there seemed to be looking from the background the portrait of one In the costume of either Charles II. or James II. At any rate, he wore the rurls and luce collar of that period. What a face! Never hhve I seen such malevolence combined with such despair. I thought of Stevenson's "Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hide," the good and the bird In one body. There were the features of benevolence and malevolence, the one looking through the other, though the former seemed to have mastered the latter. I could not bear the thought.of remaining under the gaze of that horrible face. I dared not put out the candle, for I dreaded the darkness more than the light; so, getting out of bed, I placed the candle on a dresser where It would not shine so fully on the picture. I While returning to my bed I noticed j that the features of the evil face were ' gradually giving place to the good face, I and before I lay down the good had j completely annihilated the evil. j . An hour passed, during which I occasionally cast furtive glances at the portrait, dreading the return of the fiend face. But there was no return, and at last I fell asleep. I awoke again, however, in a few hours. The candle was ; flickering In the socket. Being thirsty, I got up to get a drink of water before the .candle should go out. Turning to go back to bed, I cast a glance at the portrait. ThSre again was the face T dreaded. '. : I must have started and caused a disturbance of the air sufficient to extinguish the flickering candle. At any rate It flared and went out, and I dashed for the bed, climbed Into It and biv ried my head under the clothes, my heart beating like a triphammer. An- I other hour of wakefulness, then slum- 1 ber relieved me of the dreadful feeling that that evil face was looking at me. i In the morning my chamber door was thrown open, and my host entered to announce that breakfast was vjraltlng, and we had scarcely time to eat it and reach our train to Londfen. My first thought was of the portrait I looked at It, and there, as I had seen the night bwfore, were the two faces In one. ! "£xplafo thirt," I said, pointing. The ea*l iooked at it, surprised. "I beg a thousand pardons," he said, "for putting you In a room with that picture. When last here I gave an order for Its removal, but I see the order ha* not been obeyed. Did It trouble you In the night?" "Trouble me? I should say It did!" "Come, get jour clothes on, and at breakfast I'll t«?ll you about It." This Is th* story of the picture: When the Duke of Monmouth, Charles II.'s natural son, returned from t i e Netherlands to dispute the throne with .Tames II. the Earl of Etchwoth was drop in the plot. His ambition vms fired at the prospect of having been oue of the principal adherents of a kiug in adversity, and he staked .".IS ou the result.

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

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

I believe you said she had." "Yes, she had green hair, or as near that color as any." "When he came to trial he was found to be insane, you said?" "Yes; and that explains, perhaps, the prisoner's denial. He was doubtless insane then. Well, he was Bent to the asylum to be treated, and he escaped in a few weeks and was drowned."

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

The first known mention of the toothpick was made during the first century of the Christian era—and BO far as may now be judged, it very much resembled the 'little* wooden instrument that modern politeness declares should never be used in public. There _were also dentifrices—an "Arabian produce—brightener of the mouth," for example, which was evidently confined to comparatively few users. -Beautiful Poems With Lang Hair. The following remarks on Tennyson were recently handed in on an examination paper by a schoolboy in an English literary class: "Lord Alfred Tennyson was a celebrated poet, and he wrote a lot of beautiful pomes with long hair. His greatest pome is called 'The Idle King.' He was made a lord, but he was a good man and wrote many oads."—Harper's Weekly. "T.

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

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

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

His conceit was stupendous, and he always entertained the idea that there was no music to be compared to his own.

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

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

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

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

The interview between the contractor and; the. stranger, ended in a violent quarrel tn which.,,, Davidson knocked his caller down op the floor of the new building. Two days later Davidson left his work as usual. But he did not reach his residence. The next day an unknown person called Frank W.

After his conference with the president, Baron De Rosen left immediately for his summer home at Magnolia, Mass., where he and Mr. Witte, the principal Russian envoy, expect to spend Sunday. Japan has Implicit confidence in the president and although without any official knowledge of this latest movement the Japanese plenipotentiaries feel certain that the president is acting not only In behalf_of_ peace, hut as much In the Interest of Japan as Russia; that before Baron De Rosen arrived at Oyster Bay the president was In full possession of Japan's views and knew on what points she might under certain conditions yield and what demands were regarded as essential and unchangeable. Japan, it can be stated, must somehow be reimbursed for the cost of the war. Unless the emperor shall change his position, which his plenipotentiaries do not for a moment believe is probable, RusBia must yield on'article nine (war indemnity) or Japan will be forced to continue the war. The status of the peace prospects when the president 3ent for Baron De Rosen follow: ACCEPTED.

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

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

Just after work had stopped in the Michigan Washing Machine Co.'s factory at Muskegon Heights Thursday night, a youthful employe tossed a lighted cigar^tU aside and It fell a pile of oiled waste. Fire started almost instantly and spread rapidly. While wcrkmen were trying to extingulsh the flames a large tank of naptha exploded and the.flames were scattered throughout the entire second floor, a hole blown through the roof and the. interior of the factory was a furnace in a moment All of the workmen escaped, but it was thought for a time that the night watchman had perished and his wife tried to throw herself into the flames.

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

Notwithstanding _the unearthng of wrongdoing in this country, and the press and the atmosphere are so charged with talk about graft and grafters, it may be an opportune moment to remark that, after all, the average man is tolerably honest. We are in habit of saying, whenever any big steals are discovered in the United States government service, that they order these better in England, France, Germany and the rest of the world. This is a mistake.

The Morman bureau of Information in Temple Block, which-=eBtei^84iw^"^sr^>r»==ia©st courteously, dispeaes Morman literature gratuitously, and furnishes as guides through the Block well informed and intelligent representatives of the church, is largely responsible for this attractive knowledge of Mormanism. For all these services, gratuitously tendered, I am in the debt of the Bureau of Information. ( I too, was entertained in like manner, April 21,1904.

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

Of course they all die, sooner or later, and yet it is an occurrence so rare as to be practically unknown for anybody who lives beside or on the ocean to come across the "remains" of even a single victim of the fate that awaits all things mortal. Iu the profouuder depths putrefaction cannot take place, so if the dead fish once reaches those calm, chill abysses he would be preserved until the end of time., Probably, however, no such peaceful repose awaits more than an inflnitesimally small proportion of the finny folk, and no great accumulation of lifeless bodies exists at the bottom of the sea. The living eat the dead before they can make the long, slow journey downward.

To the people of the place the arrival of anything or any person was a subject of excitement and. they all wet to see what the vessel brought them. To their great Joy besides stores there had come a number of people to cast their fortunes with them. The watch* ere on shore stood gaping under their broad brimmed puritan hats while a ship's boat unloaded the emigrants, among them a young girl, who <rom the moment her foot touched the land made herself as much at home as if she had been born there. She had not been landed five minutes before her shoes and stockings were off and she la his boat to the ship and' prevailed on the captain to take her bach to England. Her protector went with her and i p o n investigation uncovered a plot to get rid of her that another might secure a fortune she had Inherited. Her uncle bad bribed a sailor to take her aboard the ship, and after her departure she had been personated at liome by a girl of her own age.

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

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

There are women there, and I'll see If I can persuade them to protect you." The young man believed that before the day was spent she would be Jailed and as soon as tried burned at the stake.

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

But he answered with composuse in a moment: "I went away on business." "Will you tell us what the business was—of what nature?" "I must decline to answer that question, not because I should not care to have it known, but because it is, or was, connected with other parties, or persons, who would object." One of the specialists, Sidney W. Lamb of Boston, was allowed to question Mr. Hamilton and to examine him professionally with a view to discovering whether he wa<\ or had been, mentally deranged, as in that case, he could not be held accountable for any act performed at such a time. This was an important part of the proceedings, and the result of the examination of the specialists was eagerly awaited. Their report, however, was postponed, until other witnesses should be examined. The letter which ha* been found under the president's door, was produced. "Is this your handwriting?" asked the justioe. UH looks like it, but I don't think it is." "What are your reasons for thinking so?" " I t e a s o n thus: If I did.not know my name at the date when that letter seems to have been written, then I have not signed it? As I did not know it, I think- the letter must have been written by some other person." Mr. Low was questioned: at this point.

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

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

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

The laws of England have never prevailed there and some of the Manx enactments are very curious. One iof the, earliest enjoined "all Scots to avoid the land with the next vessel that goeth into Scotland, upon pain of forfeitune of their goods and bodies to prison.'' Another enacted that "Irish women loitering and not working he commanded forth of this lele with as much convenient speed as may be" <3&6l). The first of'tbese laws was the result of a series of raids on the Manx coast <by a Galloway rover nam'ed^ MaCCulloch; It Is" said that it was at this, period that the Manx cusHonroriginntad of "eating the it before fthey sapped the broth," they. <phould be' deprived of the jsjpre substantial patt liy the' appearance at their doors of this Scot oh man and his crew.

Dtrlng thsMAventeenth centvry a law made that "whosoever shall be * .d or detected to pull horse thyles ! be punished upon the wooden a of the parish, thereon to continue two hours, and to^be whipped naked from the waist upward." Manx deemsters—the high court judges—are still sworn, as they have been for hundreds of years, by the following curious oath: "By this book and the# contents thereof, and by the wonderful works that God hath miraculously wrought in the heaven above and in the earth beneath in six days and seven nights, I do swear that I will, without respect of favor or friendship, loss or gain, consanguinity or affinity, envy or malice, execute the laws of this isle Justly between party and party as indifferently as the herring backbone doth lie In the midst of the fish. So help me God and the contents of this book.** Every woman, widow or spinster In the Isle of Man, whether she be owner, occupier or even lodger, enjoys the , franchise for the Manx House of Keys elections. Every widow enjoys half of her husband's personal estate and has a life interest in his real estate, and she cannot be deprived of this by will. Her written consent must be obtained to all transfers and deeds affecting her husband's property. On the other hand, no married woman can legally own In her own right either money or property'In the Isle of Man; she can have no separate estate unless specially provided before marriage. fwrwplaint f f a Vulgarism. Says a writer in the London Chronicle: "A vulgarism—one which, like 'aggravate' for 'irritate,' has come into use by way of the kitchen stairs—is 'demean,' with a sense of derogation or abasement. It is to be seen in many a paper and even many a book and heard in many a speech. It is the second syllable that has misled the popular understanding, but the noun 'demeanor' should have saved the educated from their blunder with the verb. When thjs cook refuses to 'demean herself she is excusable, because 'demeanor' is not in her vocabulary."

Rice, of Independence, Mo., who knows both men well and identified them. Byron. Ellison, husband of the woman who is expected to be the star witness in the Moyer murder trial, paid a third visit to his wife at the Central police station Saturday nigiH.

He insists that if the Japanese will hold out for money it will be blood money In the eyes of the world. He is banking heavily on the fact that Japan is anxious to have the approbation of the world.

Mr. 2Vewfc*rrr*a Place. Truman H. Newberry, of Detroit, for postmaster-general. This is given as President Roosevelt's new arrangement for Ills cabinet. It will be remembered that when Mr, Newberry was given the appointment of assistant secretary of- the navy, with it came the understanding—that when. Secretary Paul Morton Btepped out Newberry was to be promoted to the head of the department. Morton went out, but Charles A. Bonaparte took his place. This selection is said to have been brought about by Morton himself. He was a close personal friend of Bonaparte, whom he told that when he went out of office he would put In a good word to the president for his friend. He did that, and the president was so taken up with the friend, as well as anything Morton had to say aboui anybody, that Bonaparte got the appointment, the president meantime arranging to take better care of Newberry, for whom he is known to have a great personal liking. In February Postmaster-Genera; Cortelyou Is said to be slated for secretary ot the ireasmj, and that—& where Newberry's elevation to a cabinet position is coming in. He will take Cortelyou's place. That will make..the second time a net position, Don M. Dickinson having been postmaster-general In Presi dent Cleveland's cabinet. Starving Spain. Heartrending reports continue to reach the provincial authorities from the outlying, famine-stricken districts In Spain. The latest reports received are from Osuna and Almogla. the respective mayors of which notify the authorities that their resources are exhausted and that they are unable to further assist the famished laborers and the women and children, as the distress Is too acute. At Eclja the population has looted the bakers' stores. The mortality among infants and aged persons is attaining terrifying proportions and in many localities the working people are living on roots.

Loss of self respect is the one question there is no satisfaction In discussing. The spending of other people's money never rsems to one like being extravagant • Happiness often is driven away through having entirely too much of it at one time. The one satisfaction in having few friends Is the requests for loams do not come so frequently. We all are apt to think ill of the friend who tells us the ugly things said about us by others. About the only use paying for experience to the average man Is that It gives him something to talk about. It may be a great satisfaction to be able to do some boasting, but it brings little in the wa7 of practical returns. —Philadelphia Bulletin. QUIT DOING IT.

In Bgypt the English visitors get up polo matches, tennis, croquet, golf and bridge tournaments, fancy-dress balls, smoking concerts and organize gymkhanas. Those who know the difficulties of keeping up a golf club in a green and weU watered country, where there are permanent residents to pay the dues, can readily conjecture what must be the difficulties in a dry and desert country, where the > only permanent residents are Arabs and donkeys and where the golf players come only three months in a year. Yet there are not a few golf clubs in the land of the Pharaohs. "There are many humorous things connected with golf In Egypt. There are what might be called extra-hazardous hazards; for example, at one links, tn Upper Egypt, the golf course wound Its desert way past an oasis on which was a luxuriant field of clover. A siloed ball was extremely apt to hide Itself In this clover. The following sew role was mad* by tb* Arabs: Nobody la boots or afeoon eooJd enter the oasis limit* to sea/oh for balls; only barefooted people (others wise Arabs) were allowed to *fcter.\ Every day we found a lane peplaUosi of Arabs around the oasis waits** Cor golf balls to go to grass. BometimeSy I fear, they were assisted there,' It required much backsheesh to get them out. "At last there were so manry lost balls that an investigation was made by the greens committee. An old woman was discovered hiding near the clover hazard. When you made a fine, long approach the old lady grabbed the golf ball and took to her heels. She regarded the balls as her legiti- ' mate spoil and offered them freely for sale to the original owners at cut prices . It took an enormous amount of time and labor to convince her that she must give up her practice." The Thoroughbreds in Action The showy spendthrifts' eyes are flashing.

NOW When, further, it is known that the statement has been repeatedly made by those that have lived in Utah for many years, that almost, if not as many plural marriages have taken place within the past five years as in any five years since 1885 and that this view is a .more charitable one to hold than that these -marriages have not taken place, then let the women of the United States realize that they have sisters in the heart of this free land living under the vilest curse of a civilized country; and let them, their brothers, their husbands and their sons come to the help of the morman women. And yet, again, when it is remembered that the sacred pledges made by the Morman church to the United States when Utah was given statehood have been openly violated, not only by members of the rank and file of the church but by its president, by a number of its apostles and many of its lesser priests, let t h e A m e r i c a n p p o p l a a w a k o i,ty the fact that there is a national importance to the Morman situation, after all. Naturally enough another question* arises. Are the Morman people sincere in their religion? Can a morman woman be sincere? There is no doubt that the body of the moiman people is sincere. There is no doubt in the world that the body of the Morman woman is sincere. The Morman woman has suffered for her religion. The Morman woman today is suffering for her religion and the young women and the young ^irls will doubtless suffer in the religion that has made tragedies of the lives of their mothers. By this I do not mean that every morman woman is a plural wife or that every morman suffers neglect and privation, but that the great mass of Morman women suffer I believe and know; suffer in the | degraded places they are assigaed in their religion; suffer in their slavery to their church and their husbands. Possibly most of these women are sincere in their religion.

It la sufficient to say that I was a trusted collector, and once a month I made a round of about fifty customers and turned in from $15,000 fc> $20,000. On one occasion I had a railroad Journey of a hundred miles to make, and I would arrtve home before 9 o'clock In the evening. It bad always been that way, and the watchman was Instructed to let me into the office in order that I might deposit the money in the safe. I took a glance at my fellow passengers as I entered the car, and I found no cause for suspicion. Indeed, In my car there were only half a dozen people, and three of them were women. One of the three men was an old man, and I spotted him for a clergyman at % wUl change me "crutcbT und«r th# other arm, please." He stepped back of me to make the change, and the next thing I knew he had his arm around my neck, his knee in the small of my back and was doing the garrote in first class shape. I was found half an hoar later by a pedestrian and removed to the hospital, and It was two weeks before I was able to crawl o u t It was a put up Job to get my money, and the $16,000 I had in I pocket was duly transferred.

He went off there to seek his I fortune, and was killed by the natives. j Tou are not a father and you don't I know what it means for one to lose 1 bis only child. j I assured him of my sympathy, and , as a matter of fact I did feel sorry when I saw his chin quivering. '. "Oh, well, it is a cross I am called upon to bear," he said after a time. : "The Lord gives and the Lord takes away. Are you a member of any church, may I ask?" , "Not as yet, sir." "But you tjelieve in the Christian doctrine, I hope?1' "I certainly do." "Well, let me trust that In time you will see j'our way clear to all^ .vuuxself to some church. Religion asks' nothing of any man he cannot grant, and you do not know what a consolation it is In time of trouble." Later on he told me something of his history, and 1 learned that he had been a great exhorter in his time, and had been the" means of leading thousands Into the true path. We fell to discussing Biblical questions, and I was surprised and pleased at the extent of his knowledge and the keenness of his arguments. I offered to withdraw several times, thinking I might weary •hini, but he overruled me, and so I rode the whole distance In his companyv He did not ask my business or other impertinent questions, but seemed perfectly satisfied with what I told him. When we at last reached the end of our Journey I felt it no more than common politeness to offer my arm to help him out of the car. He accepted It, and when he rose up he placed a crutch under the other and moved painfully along. He had already told me that his complaint was sciatic rheumatiem and that he was just/now suffering from a periodical attack. He had said that Mr. Barrow was to meet him. No such person was there. When we were satisfied of this the reverend gentleman said: "He may have made a mistake about the time, or something has happened to detain him. Would it be asking too much of one who has already favored irte to ask that you walk to the corner with me? I shall be indeed grateful.'' Why not? Any man would have done so. We set out at a slow pace, and I afterward remembered that all the hacks were gone before we left the platform, nor did I notice a policeman -about.

No Indictment "Too, as grand jurors for the body df this county, do solemnly swear that you will diligently inquire and a true presentment make of all such matters and things as shall be given you in charge; the state's counsel, your fellows, and your own you shall keep secret; you shall present no man for envy, hatred, or malice; neither shall you have any unpresented for love, fear, faYPJ^aflectlon, or hope of reward ; but you shall present things truly as they come to ytfur knowledge according to the best of your understanding. So help you God." The above oath, taken verbatim, which is administered to the grand juror, is a bar to any questioning or real knowledge of the proceedings incident to the case of Vane Hamilton, which was presented before them. The result only was known; and as it would have awakened great excitement to have known, that an indictment had been found against Vane Hamilton, it occasioned equal stir to learn that none had been brought. "I am glad—very glad," said Mr. Hamilton to the bank president. "The matter was beginning to wear upon me. "Yes, you Ao look thinner than when you returned. wbrKfTob" ha r'dT You .must not the bank president, walking away and wondering whether Hamilton would ever hear what had been said about Bdea' devotion to his wife. That he had not yet, was evident by his total lack of Interest in him. Edes himself looked very despondent since the cashier's return, or so it was said. Mr, Hartwell was superior to gossip when passing through the ordinary channels, but told to him by his sweetvoiced wife it was a different matter. Her information was usually gained through Mrs. Taylor. Mrs, Taylor's froth~he*-hlred girl, whose sister 1 tved near the Frys. But no doubt it was correct enough. "Mrs. Hamilton is more prudent since her husband's return. She does not go to the Frys now, so Mrs. Taylor says." \ "I am glad of that. Perhaps that is the reason Edes looks so doleful, if he does." "Oh, ho does. There is no question about that. Mrs. Taylor's hired girl's sister, Mrs. Green, who lives next door to Mrs, Fry, says she told Mrs. Fry herself about Mr. Hamilton's return when Edes was combing his hair by the little glass la the kitchen. They were so excited at first that they did not notice until he started to go up to his room. His face was as white as a sheet, Mrs. Green said, and he looked, more like a corpse than a liv- I handle no money nor notes, though," he said, smiling gravely; "I would not risk it. It is a terrible thing, Mr. Hartwell, to feel hanging over you always the sword of impending insanity, or something as bad." "It is, It is, Mr. Hamilton," said the president, 6©riously; "but for that sdme of the bank directors"—and he paused in an embarrassed manner. "I know, Mr. Hartwell. I was told of it, and it did me good to learn that — 4ajuBtafl.__He never came down that T3o, I Khali try-4»-ko<>p from that^ j^ght^she found out by -asking MrsT Fry, and the nexi morning wheu he went to his work he looked glummer and stiller than ever. Mrs. .Fry worships Mrs. Hamilton, and she laid it to a bilious attack—said he was subject to them." Serious, indeed, was the state of affairs to Constance. The relations with her husband were of the most constrained order and her interest in Edes Unabated—augmented, indeed; for she knew he was miserable on her I 14 Yes, my heart claimed you from the first, and Wow—O Godl" they would have liked me In my olden capacity, some of them. But the others were wiser. I could not have accepted had, the wish been unanimous, as it was not. Still, do you know, Mr. Hartwell, I doubt that I ever presented that note to Low, for the reasons stated at the examination." "You think it was some other man?" "I do, and so must have thought the grand jury." "Could it have been Ashley, do you think?" "The man is dead and nothing can ever be proved, but I wonder that Low and Hull are retained without an examination." "Why, you don't suspect Low?" "No, but 1 do not think he is careful enough for a bank officer. Still I would not make the statement in public. No; 1 think Low is honest, but how he could have been deceived so easily is a wonder." "Why, he says you appeared natural, and so does Tony, you know." "Tony could not judge in a moment of time even if it were myself, which I do not believe. Well, it is a dark 'matter; I only hope time will«explain •'it." , "Detective Swan at one time, I fancy, thought Primus Edes might be Ashley." "Primus Edes! Doesn't he work tn our mill?" "Yes. Oh, he gave up the idea long ago; no grounds at all for thinking so. JBdes Isn't a fool, but he isn't up to th%a>?erag*." T ^ .:,,; ,>; *. ... 'An excellent machinist, though, they teir me." "Haven't yoa noticed him?" "Omij at a distance." "Well, he is a strange man," said account, and pity was so ingrained in her nature that she could feel for his woes as though they were her own. One day she chanced to meet him face to face as she was gotng down the street and he was returning from the mill. When he saw her he put out his hand with an eloquent gesture to stop her. "Constance—Mrs. Hamilton, has he come back?" "Yes, I suppose so." He did not notice the strangeness of her reply, but turned away his head with a groan,' seemingly wrung from his Very heart. *"I thought—it seemed as if you belonged to me." "Belonged to you?" "Yes; my heart claimed you from the first, and cow—O God!" His form shook with emotion and his face was convulsed. " "Hush! you must not say such words. It is wicked; you forget where you are. We have talked too long already. Good-day," and sh_e walked hastily away, hoping no one had seen them. Edes walked slowly homewSrdrblft the effect of this interview did not end it. It was destined to grow and expand and fructify. That evening Constance chanced to be standing at dusk by her sittingroom window, looking out into the dim street, up which Mr. Hamilton was walking toward the house. Behind him, not far-distant, she saw another ma^fj t ^1^1^41 appeared to her, following himv—what was his object? Was It Edes? Why should he follow her husband on a public thoroughfare, even though deserted as it was now: Edes did not follow htm inside the gate? Her^Juisbsmd'did not serhtm at alt But as* he came slowly up>th* walk to the house Constance saw Unman stop an Instant and shake his fist threateningly in the air. That threatening, uncouth gesture frighten* ed her, it was so Instinct with unreasoning fury. With a dull, heavy dread it her heart she turned to meet her husband, whose faee seemed paler than usual, and his manner somewhat shaken. "What. Constance! alone and with no light?" He spoke tenderly, though his words were matter of fact enough; but her purpose seemed to be to ignore everything like tenderness. "It is not late, and the children are finishing their tennis game in the yard behind the house." He said nothing, but sank down in a chair as if in deep thought. "Constance," he said at length, "how long must this go on?" "Go on? I do not understand you." -"This wearing Anxiety on my part. this seeming indifference on yours." "Seeming?" she repeated, haughtily. "Yes, seeming. No woman could he really indifferent to the fact of her husband's presence, as you seem to be.- Why are you so changed to me? What have I done?"

Let us be married again, put the past behind us and be happy." "Why put the past behind us?" "Because it will be best. You can never love me again if you try to recall your old affection. Let us begin anew, be married again, secretly, if you will, but throw off the old bond and begin a new. life with all the shadow of past distrust and suffering 4eftr-behind—us^_Will you, Constance, will you?" His voice was low and pleading, his hand, still clasping hers. But she drew it away. "You talk absurdly," she said. "As If old married people could not do better than cover themselves with ridicule by a second wedding! Say no more. I distrust you. I feel that there is something false about you. I have from the first." j "Do you doubt my love for you?" "Not that, perhaps," she said, faltering, for she could not doubt it, looking into his face so full of love's emotion; "but I do not feel at ease in your presence. What of Lenora?" she asked, suddenly, wheeling about and facing him again. "Lenora," he feebly repeated. "Yes, Lenora." "There is no Lenora." "Is she dead?" "She may be, for aught I know. Constance, as heaven is my witness, she is nothing to me. Your husband has been true to you always, in word, thought and deed. Look at yourself," pointing to the mirror set between two panels, and reaching from floor to ceiling; "do you think I could ever forget you for any other woman? Is there any other half so beautiful or good in the wide world? If there is, I never saw her." If this passionate assertion moved Constance In the least she did not evince any emotion. She put up her hand, merely, as if to stay further words, and said calmly, "I hear the children. They have finished their game, and it is time for Uncle Carter, too." Clare and Perley entered, flushed and rosy from their game. "Such-fun!" said Perley, as an echo to the late game, unwilling to let the sport drop. "Oh, yes; why didn't you come out, papa?" ' "I was talking with mamma, my little Clare," said Mr. Hamilton, fondly stroking her curls. She clasped his hand and held It. "I love you, papa, almost better than I used to." "You are the only one who does, my darling. Is it really, truly, for myself?" he asked her, as if yearning for some acknowledgment. "Of course, it is. But," she continued, thoughtfully, "you .never hear me say my prayers now." "Would you like to have me? I thought it was to God you prayed." "Ye8;*but I want you to-pray, too, in-your heart, as you used to." (To be continued.) Handy. Cholly—Why, what are you doing with the engagement ring I gave your sister?

By subjecting this iron coin to a process rendering it brittle and unfit for any other use Lycurgus endeavored to destroy every desire to hoard it as a treasure.** Rollin, in his "Ancient History,** volume 1, page 687, says: "First he (Lycurgus) pried down all gold and silver money and ordained that no other should, be current than that of Iron, which he made so very heavy and fixed at so low a rate that a cart and two oxen were necessary to carry home a sum of 10 minae (500 French livres, about $88.80) and a whole chamber to keep it In. a ctrncvmronowg MAtit iislBvGieaMd «# OantfrttfL an4 Malr J ftapfsrirf by OniBox of CuslctiPa , sn4 Qno f*k% of Cugstirfe - Soap.* Thisv was done for the purpose of sapping the foundation of avarice. From the above quotations it would seem that, while iron was much more valuable than it is now, still It was not so valuable a s to justify its being coined into money. It seems that a team of oxen could haul about $88 worth of coin. I presume the same sort of team might haul one-fifth that ralue of iron at the present date.

Co$l Tokens as Currency shape of disks, approximating coins in size, and was from Roman workshops, where . articles of ornament were made on latnes. A wricer says: "On the Dorset coast, in the isle of Purbeck, to the west of St. Alban's Head, an outcrop occurs of bituminous shale, which extends more or less for some miles. As a source of fuel this shale, or coal, has been worked from very early times and is to the present day used by the cottagers of Kimme ridge. Some of this shale isf of so compact a texture that it is capable Df being worked into ornamental articles, taking a high polish, similar to Jet. The Romans, when occupying this part of Dorset, discovered not only the properties of this deposit as a fuel but also Its capabilities of being turned in a lathe into rings, beads and armlets, which were no doubt readily purchased by the ladies in the important town of Durnovaria (Dorchester), a few miles distant. Some estimate may be formed of the magnitude of this industry by the number of disks which have been discovered from time to time in the neighborhood, as they are without doubt the cores or centers left after turning articles of ornament. "TheBe discarded disks have been Invarlabry^fefund; carefully -hlddea=Haway under the surface of the ground, ~at a depth of about two feet, some times with or in Roman pottery and sometimes between two flat stones placed on edge, covered with a third } stone at the top. That they were carefully stored and hidden away is beyond question; hence they must have represented some value to the possessor. It would appear reasonable t o conclude that they were used by the ancient Britons as tallies, or money. The turning lathe of the enlightened Roman was an instrument unknown to the natives and these waste disks, bearing the tool marks of the turner, would have been as impossible to counterfeit by the savage Briton as a minted coin. ''Thar^Qey have Deen Tcnowir from early times as coal money is well authenticated. As many as 600 have been found together In one place, but always protected by covering stones or pottery. In size they vary from one and three-quarters to two and onehalf inches in diameter and about onehalf inch in thickness, with holes to secure them to the mandrel of the lathe. They are all strikingly similar in appearance." A. W.

Onr history is hard and masculine; colored with few purple lights; too little related to our tenderer sentiments and deeper passions. When older peoples have paused, as we did then, they have looked upon far different scenes. - Fairer companies have stood about more stately figures of triumph or of tragedy than that America and the world now gazed upon. The common chamber, the gaunt, pale President, the strong, bearded counselors at his bedside^-thla' was unlike scenes which Euronvjela peoples have fixed in their memories. Charles I and Mary Stuart on their scaffolds, th« barons and the King at Runnymede, Maria Theresa sppealingto* the nobles <rf^«ngary to take *'up their swords for her child,. Marie Antoinette and Miraheau.-and wtt&y- another pageant of human love, and sacrifice are treasured up by othej; piadfrtes as we have treasured up this crude, unlackeyed martyrdom. Even the great personality of Lincoln, now potent in so many individual lives, intimate and familiar of so many of our hidden moods, was not yet fully revealed to his fellows. I,t was the emancipator only that had fallen; the leader and shepherd of men. Outwardly at least his experience was limited as theirs was. Dying in the midst of multitudes, master of armies and of navies, he was still of the frontier; as, indeed, all our American life was still, in a sense, only the frontier and western fringe of European life. •True, Lincoln also leads our thoughts back to the princes whose peer he was, but we can pass from his deathbed with'no irreverence, no sense of shock or change, to look out, in the plain light of day, upon the whole wide field of work and strife, and progress which was always in his thought, and glimpse the attitude and state of the republic when his summons passed, like an angelus, across the continent.—William Garrott Brown in the Atlantic.

Another time in "Vlrglnius" he asked, "Do you wait for me to lead Virginia in, or will you do so?" only to be greeted unexpectedly by the actor wbo played Iclltus with, "Why, really, sir, I don't care; just a* you do it m London."

In Polynesia and the Pacific islands generally the outer husk of the cocoa nut is braided into strands of uniform texture, known to the natives as sennit and used by them for a variety of purposes. The framework of tbelr houses is held together by braided sennit, and the strakes of tbeir boats are united by it. It is the staple from which string is made to bind the adze blade to its handle and to tie the different parts of their Implements securely together. In short, whatever things are nailed or screwed or pegged or glued in other lands are tied together with sennit by the south sea islander. One Leararedl Dinner Party.

It is to be hoped that good may come to the state and country at large by the good roads convention which was held at Pt. Huron last week. A drive throngh the country will convince anyone that there is a system lacking in the building and keeping in repair the highways. In some districts you will find the roads in good shape and the work well done, while in others you will find yery poor roads and it anything is done to improve them it might as well have been left undone. A certain element among the farmers is already auspicious that onr newly organized state highway department is too much inclined to permit the interests of the automobilists to fill its eye, and to slight those aspects of the road question which appeal particularly to the much larger but less effectively organized interests which the farmer represents. A mile of good road is a mile of good road, wherever it is placed, and is always worth all that it can legiti To Farmers and Stockmen Wei have a number of Daniel's Stock Book and wttt give one absolutely f ' e e to any Farmer or stockman who asks for one.

MICHIGAN BREVITIES. The murder of Pawnbroker Moyer In Detroit, for which two men who gave their names, as Harry Johnson and Harry Parker, but who have been fully identified as Tom Sherman and Prank Weakly, has been brought home to them in the trial in the Recorder's Court. It was one of the most brutal and startling murders ever committed in the city. Besides recovering practically all the plunder taken by the men, the mysterious "widow" who had a liaison with Tom Sherman was discovered and restored a part of the etolen diamonds they had placed in her care. Mrs. Byron Ellison, of Kansas City, Mo., the wife of a respectable and honest working engineer, the woman in the case, whom her husband freely forgave and besought her to tell the truth, has taken his advice and sealed the fate of the two men. Heavily veiled, and amid sobs of grief, the recital of her shame was made in the court Tuesday before the men who are on trial for the murder. During her testimony a letter which Sherman, alias Johnson, wrote her and which contained^damaging ^evidence against him, was read. Mrs. Ellison's testimony, identifying both respondents, and the letter arc considered to remove any remaining hope either may have had of being acquitted of the charge of murder. She evidently felt keenly her position and that her story while conclusive against the prisoners was also putting the Indelible "brand of shame on herself. The trial -ended Friday afternoon with a verdict of guilty and the sentence followed at once. Judge Phelan sending the men to Marquette prison for life. Shackled to Sheriff Burns and Turnkey Guyette, Harry Parker and Harry Johnston left Detroit a;t 11 o'clock Saturday morning on the steamer Japan for the prison at Marquette.

Sunday, Aug. 6: Parker and Johnson brought back to Detroit; identifications cinch people's case. Thursday, Aug. 10: Johnson confesses to police that he and his pal murdered Pawnbroker Moyer.

POLITENESS A NECESSITY. It does not cost anything to be polite to your friends and acquaintances, and incidentally it goes a long way toward making life pleasant for your* self. A civil answer makes more friends than a gruff one, and a smile succeeds where a frown fails. We have no right to Impose our little tempers and annoyances on our fellow beings. : The fact that one person annoys us does not justify uu in visiting it on the next person we meet. The normal heart beat is 72 to the minute in the healthy adult. This man, by smoking a strong cigar, can increase his pulsation to 140 a minute without injury or any derangement of health, and will use his electric apparatus, which is quite sensitive, to operate a small motor. "The hydraulic ram was constructed on the principle of the heart action," he says; "therefore why not use my extra excitement for the benefit of the home circle? My wife objects to cigars, but if I can run her sewing, machine by laying back in an armchair and taking an occasional whiff I'm sure she will relent." The cause of the heart beat is tho most, interesting study to which man could possibly devote himself.

"Are you sick?" asked the man peering into his face, "Yes, sick of living." The man shrank back without replying, and Hamilton strode on until he met "Mr. Carter, who asked him where he was going.

Like the widening circles produced by a'stone thrown into a stream, so the mystery surrounding the bank affair at Grovedale was prolific of consequences. Full particulars had been wired through the country and enterprising reporters had worked up columns about it for the newspapers which they represented. One of the widening circles caused by the local disturbance extended to the bank of which Simon, Low was cashier. The directors, awakening to the fact that deposits were being withdrawn with alarming rapidity, called a meeting and unanimously decided that the Interests of the bank called for the "resignation" of Simon Low. Therefore he resigned, but with the united expression of good will and respect from the officers, who felt assured of his perfect honesty and reliability. On the other hand, Tony Osborn, who had himself withdrawn, was asked to resume his place in the Grovedale bank, which .he did, much gratified by the renewed confidence thus manifested. If there had been any feeling of suspicion in regard to a complicity between the cashier, when supposed to have absconded, and Tony, it had disappeared! Indeed the bank officials saw plainly now that there was little friendship between the two; for, though Mr. Hamilton was affable when they chanced to meet, Tony had little to say to him and never went near the house. However, he was as respectful as ever toward Mrs. Hamilton All this time her attitude toward Mr. Hamilton did not swerve from its "Well, I don't like his looks, Vane, - and I fancied you were not over and above- pleased to see him." "You were right; but I have known him off and on for years, and in his way ho has done me many a good better and more tenderly every day turn, I suppose he thinks." "What's his name?" coldness and reserve* She palpably shrank from being alone with him, or having any private conversation. And he never seemed to resent her attitude.

He called to^see Mr. Hamilton at the mill, and was closeted with him an hour or more. Afterwards he was seen chatting with Primus Edes in an affable manner,- and later, the same day, he called at Mrs. Fry's house. That lady was not glad to see him, and she showed her feelings plainly by being very glum and stiff in her manner. She did not like his: looks, nor his errand, which she felt sure was to learn what he could concerning Primus Edes. Indeed, she was fully convinced in her own mind that he was "anoth^^^etective. feller." Solomon Marks got In o' friends ia Grovedale. It, was plain to Mr.. Carter that even Vane did not like, him, *nd was relieved when he left town. Mr. Hamilton was engrossed now, day after day, at the mfll, for his help was seriously needed. Moments of forgetfulness seemed to steal over him, causing him to forget names and details, but a word recalled them to mind, and then be would go on unaided, perhaps, for days. His aptitude for business, always remarkable, ha4 not lessened in the least/ and he was confident, he told his partners, that very soon he should fully recove^all rememb^efolUfce M e t v l t % r v'?

Do I differ in any respect, taking into account the trifling changes my mental disturbance pro-- duced, from the husband of a few months ago? Tell me, Constance, and tell me truly." * -"Why Thr you question me?" she asked. "I have never said you were not my husband." "No, Constance, and in your heart you know that I am, though you affect to ignore my claims arid to act as if you doubted me, even though you do not, say so to me," HQ'hSjd' never spoken to her so plaf^y" ai»d sternly before, and she trembled^ as she looked into his face.

He looked at her a moment before replying, "At the foot of the bed. It was a fancy of yours." "No, it was 4- habit; but no matter," and she moved to the piano. "Sing to me, will you not, Constance?" "Yes. Shall It he your favorite?" "Yes, if yon have not forgotten it." "Oh, no. I never forget. Find it forme, please.* * ' For a moment he gazed at her earnestly.

"Yon have," she said, in a tone fall of meaning; aad she left the piano, crossed the apartment and took up a book. The next day Mr. Hamilton asked a workman at the mill to tell Primus Edes that he wished to speak with him. As the man stood waiting, not venturing to speak himself, Mr. Hamilton said: "Your name is Edes, I believe." , "Yes, sir." "Have you worked in our mill long?" "About eight months." "Where did you work before you came here?" "In Alabama." "Were you born there?" "No, I was born in Vermont." "Who were your parents?" "Thomas and Mary Edes. I was an only child, and they are both dead." "Were you ever married?" "No, sir." "You are said to be a good, natural machinist. Would you like to be transferred to our other mill, where you can have an opportunity to study the works, and, perhaps, have a position as foreman there after a time?" "No, sir. I like where I am, and would rather stay here." "Very well, remain where you are; but let me caution you, my good fellow, never to be seen watching my house as you did before my return." "I will remember," replied Edes, in his dazed, hopeless fashion, though his sallow cheek reddened and his eyes gleamed fiercely for a moment. Mr. Hamilton turned to his desk an took up his pen, and Edes returned t<' his work. But as soon as Mr. Hamilton was left with Mr. Carter, who had been present during the interview, a silent but watchful listener, the latter said: "That man is chock full of mystery. He was lying when he" gave his parento'names, and answered se^gHbly^" "Do you think so?" —"I do." "If I thought so," said his companion, seemingly startled, "I—but. pshaw! you must be mistaken. He is stupid and harmless." Yes, it was very evident, as Mr. Carter said, and also as evident that he was very unhappy, not to say hopeless. Mrs. Fry pitied him more than ever. She petted him, and fixed up bitter doses for his liver, as she said, and cooked tempting dishes till her sons began to Joke her for her preference; but this made no difference. ut do like him a sight better's the rest • of the boarders.

Mr. Hammerly, a little more pallid, but gentle and kind in speecft'afe ever, soon came out of his study to speak to her, and s*e; immediately broached her errand. "It's about a poor man that boards with me," she said. "Primus Edes, his name is. He's a poor creetur, an' I'm drefful 'fraid he's set his heart on Mis' Hamilton, 'cause he was well enough before her husband came back."

Silence for a moment, and an "old man of the road" replied: "I'll bet you a dinner you can't hold your foot—boots on—in a bucket of hot water as long as I can."

You mustn't be hard in your judgment on him, Mr. Hammerly." "No, I won't be hard on him," answered Mr. Hammerly, in a low tone. "I am sorry for him. I think I heard something about this long ago. Have you spoken of this to any one?" "No, I hain't, not one word about her, not even to Dan, an' I sha'n't." "That is right. It would not do to mix a lady's name up in a matter like that. I will try to find an opportunity to speak to Mr. Edes." And with this assurance, and considerably lightened in her mind, the kind-hearted woman took her way homeward. Mr. Hammerly called to see Primus Edes one night after his day's work was ended, and found him softly playing the violin in his own room, sitting quite like a gentleman In dressing gown and slippers, thought Mrs. Pry, as she conducted the minister into the apartment. What was said at the interview no one knew, hut Mr. Hammerly came forth exceedingly thoughtful, and Edes played far into the night, but with closed windows. ' (To he continued.) Ambition.

It is not till one has learned to love the Morman woman and hate tne system which crushes her, that this state of mind can be comprehended. Remember you who would be inclined to regard with contempt a woman who would consent to be a 2nd or 6th wife, that the plural wife occupies that position in accordance with the training of her mother and her mother's mother, in accordance with the very principles of hei religion; in the hope of the glory, which will reward her persecution of the flesh in this world, in the brightness of the light to eome. Remember Beader,that the Morman woman is different from other women only in her religion, remember that she is an American woman, that she has a woman's heart, that her babies are just as sweet and innocent as your own, and that the pity is in the native, womanliness of the Morman woman.

A CHANGE OF [Original.] One summer evening a rowboat con* tmlning two young men mid two young women was drifting idly on the Allegheny river above the city of Pittaburg. They were two pairs of lovers, John Baron and Lillie Beck, Bartle Farr and Margaret Ferris. If any on<e would have told tbem that within a vary short time there would be a transposition among them us fiances they would not have believed it. Nevertheless such a change came to pass. John Baron was one of those phlegmatic, taciturn, undemonstrative fellows who usually choose their opposites, and in Lillie Beckt-Wjound exactly the girl to attract him. Bartle Farr was a gay, devil may care young {Dan, who found In Margaret Ferris those steady qualities that a man of his character seemed to need. Everybody said that both couples would make an admirable match. It was in the days when nitroglycerin was supplied from above Pittsburg on the Allegheny to the oil fields In Pennsylvania, floated down in sti- Ietto-llke boats some thirty feet long by four feet wide. Eaoh boat carried enough nitroglycerin to blow anything it struck to the clouds. It was run by two men, who had strict orders to He up at nightfall. In daytime they could be seen far enough ahead to enable such craft as they came across to get out of the way, and, since they did not run at night, there was no necessity for accident. The party in the skiff had pulled far up the river during the afternoon, intending to drift down leisurely with the current in the twilight Bartle Farr, who never took thought for the future, Insisted on rowing up much farther than wag Intended. Margaret Ferris had endeavored to check his enthusiasm, but on this occasion was unequal to the task, or, rather, she permitted him to have his way, only warning him that in case they were caught out on the river in the dark and anything happened she would hold him responsible. Twilight was fading into night, and they were still several miles above the city drifting down with the current. Margaret proposed that the men should take to the oars and was seconded by Baron. Whereupon Farr declared tliat they were having the best part of their excursion and as for him- Mlf he proposed to enjoy It. Baron took a pair of oars and began to row. At this Farr made a curt remark about his timidity at being out after dark without a protector. Baron made no reply, but kept on pulling. When the night settled down upon/ them Farr and Miss Ferris were in tire bow, Farr with his back between/the two gunwales.. Miss Ferris sitttifg on the foremost seat, facing hlnL Miss Beck was at the tiller, Baron on the "stroke" seat rowing. Suddenly something black on the. river appeared within a few yards \4t them, and a Toice shouted, "Get/Jut of the way for /our livesP' and two splashes followed as of persons jumping into the water. In another inoment John Baron recognized the/dim outline of a nitroglycerin boat/ coming straight for the skiff. Art the same moment Farr, who had risen to see what was coming, recognjyWl the danger—He plunged into l i t retained bar equanimity. From mat moment he showed the latter a prtfare* co, which resulted In the breaking of hm engagement, and be aftarward bocame engaged to Miss Ferris. Bartle Farr, when he found that he had lost Miss Ferris, either to show that he was not Inconsolable or from shear desperation, took up with the neglected Miss Beck. She was not a strong character. Firr made love desperately acd won her. He derived some satisfaction in making the othet two believe that he was just as well satisfied as If the exchange had not occurred. WINIFRED ROBERTS.

Baron, putting all his strength into one supreme effort, gave Hrwo-strokes with the-port oar, and before he could give a third the nose of the nitroglycerin boat rubbed the stern of the skiff. For a few seconds the side of the explosive craft slid along the stern of the skiff, then the danger had passed. Baron took in the situation at once. The men on the boat had been running her too late into the night, and on coming upon the skiff, after shouting a warning, had jumped overboard. The situation after the danger had passed was this: Farr was swimming for the skiff, Miss Beck was lying in a fainMn the stern. Baron was resting on his oars, while Miss Ferris was sitting quietiy on the forward seat. Her cheeks Earned at the cowardice of. her lover, who had left her to die while he saved himself. Baron knew that the nitroglycerin boat being without guidance would go on down the river, liable at any moment to cause great loss of life and property. He was a good swimmer and resolved to catch it. Plunging into the water, he swam lustily, gaining on it all the while till at last he caught It. Fulling himself upon the deck, he seized a rope fixed to the bow, tied the line around his body, and. plunging again into the watflp; swam for the shore- - In this he ran a fearful risk.

The Russian plenipotentiaries ac-* companled by their secretaries ealleii on Baron Komura and Mr. Takahira shortly after noon Friday and were in conference with them for half an hour. Japan having indicated through Baron Komura her willingness for an armistice, M. Witte supposed that he would find them ready to sign. Barou Komura explained that while his government was ready to consent lo an armistice, his instructions were that this should not take effect until afte*' the signing of the treaty, An agreement was finally entered into providing for an armistice which shall take effect the moment the treaty Is signed.

The following summary, purporting to give the "exact nature of the work accomplished and the broad charac* teristics of the latest tendencies which underlay the endeavors of either side" at Portsmouth, is printed in London. The dispatch says: "Speaking generally, o fourfold purpooo may bo dia cerned in the twelve historic proiwsals carefully drafted by the Japanese diplomatists: "First—To restore the entire set of political conditions which the treaty of Shimonoseki was calculated to establish. "Second—To remove, counteract or assimilate the disturbing factors, political, economical and military, which have come into existence since then. "Third—To hinder the growth of the new disturbing factors created by the aggressive policy of Count Muravleff and Admiral. Alexieff, and "Fourth—To play the enviable role of a chivalrous prince in releasing the Chinese and Korean princesses from the power of the sorcerer's spell, and in helping Europe and the civilized world to rights too long withheld." Dr. Francis Pounds, of Philadelphia, says spotted fever is due to bathing in polluted waters. Gen. James Carnahan, major-general of the Uniform rank, Knights of Pythias, died Thursday at his home in Woodruff place after an illness of two weeks. Three jags a year were necessary to his health, declared Merrltt Locust aged 105, of Georgetown, Ky., who has just died. He was married four times and was the father of 30 children. Hugh' H. Hanna, of Indianapolis, is being urged as the successor of Secretary of the Treasury Shaw. Mr. Hanna was the leading spirit In the gold standard movement in the country from 1896 to 1900.

Because of them men have attained the very heights of ambition; because of them even thrones have been established and destroyed. WhataHdisappoinlment^ Danger in Artificial Lega. Artificial steel legs are dangerous in thunderstorms. A man wore one during an electrical disturbance in London the other day. The lightning was attracted by the steel leg and killed the man and killed also his little daughter who was holding him by the hand. The clothing on the man's left side was torn and burnt. The little flrl bore no marks of the lightning, but her left shoe was torn to pieces. Evldenee of Qui It. If a Chinese dies while being tried for murder the fact of his dying is taken as evidence of his guilt. He has departed, but somebody must suffer, and his eldest son, if he has one, is therefore sent to prison for a year. If he has no son then his father or brother gets a flogging. It's all in the family, and somebody has to pay for it. Use for Candle Ends. Some one has discovered a really practical use for candle ends.that are too short to burn well and that seem fit for nothing except the traah basket They will be found very useful in kindling flres, as they burn with a steady flame, for a few minutes at least, until the kindling and wood would have time to become well ignited.

In my own case there was eventually developed some sort of affection of the nerves leading from the spine to the head. "I was unable to hold my head up straight, the tension of the nerves drew it to one side, causing me the most Intense pain. We got no relief from medicine, and were puzzled as to what caused the trouble, until a friend suggested that possibly the coffee we drank had something to do with it, and advised that we quit it and try Postum Coffee. "We followed his advice, and from the day that we began to use Postum we both began to improve, and in a very short, time both of us were entirely relieved. The nerves became steady once more, the headaches ceased, the muscles In the back of my neck relaxed, my head straightened up and the dreadful pain that had so punished,me while I used the old kind of coffee vanished.

Onmm Physicians Recommend Castoria C* ASTORIA has met with pronounced favor on the part of physicians, pharmar- ^ centical societies and medical authorities. It is used by physicians with, results most gratifying. The extended use of Oastoria is unquestionably ther result of three facts: .*»»*—The indisputable evidence that it is harmless: jecoiiw*—That it not only allays stomach pains and quiets the nerves, but assimilates the food: r*/V^—It is an agreeable and perfect substitute for Castor Oil*. It is absolutely safe. It does not contain any Opium; Morphine, or other narcotic and does notatupefyi—1^ Bateiaiaa's-l^ Cordial, etc. This is a good deal for a Medical Journal to say. Our duty, however, is to expose danger and record the means of advancing health. The day for poisoning innocent children through greed or ignorance ought to end.

For some months past she has been getting rather worse so that her bodily ailment effected her mind at intervals and in one of her destracted moment* she swallowed some wood alcohol which was the immediate cause of her death. She was a bright intelligent young woman always ready to speak kind words to visitors. Without a mormur or complaint she patiently endured a« "seeing Him wbo is invisible,1' until her hour had come. She was tenderly and-fttiostionatery eared for tun her long suffering years hyher mother and aunt Miss Mary Cate. She was a member oftheQCong'l church and a sincere christian. She was talented in many ways and preformed good services with her hands making useful and ornamental articles for her mother or friends. A great reader, her mind was stored with information on subjects of general interest which she discussed with profit before her visitors. She will be greatly missed and lamented.

Nothing Fails to the Bottom. It is an interesting scientific fact, and one not generally known, that nothing which falls into the mouth of the deepest mining shaft in the world ever reaches the bottom. This has been demonstrated at the famous Red Jacket shaft of the big Calumet & Hecla copper mine at Calumet. The article, no matter what shape or size* it may be, is invariably found clinging to the east side of the shaft. One day a monkey, .wrench was dropped, but it did not get to the bottom; U was found lodged agaiasti the east side of the shaf£ several hundred feet down. This incident, coming to the attention of the Michigan College of Mines, it was decided to make a careful test of the apparent phenomenon. It was decided best to use a small but heavy spherical body, and a marble, tied to a thread, was suspended about 12 feet below the mouth of the shaft. When the marble was absolutely still, assuring that ft would drop straight down, the thread was burned through by the flame of a candle. The marble fell, but at a point. afeouMJOOfeet-from 4he-eurfp.ee. brought up against the east wall of The Washington Post says some men show their philanthropy under the guise "of playing poker.

The same would be the case were a man to fall into the shaft. While it would mean sure death, the body, badly torn, would be found lodged in the timbering on the east side. Members of the faculty of the College of Mines are now engaged in experiments with a view of developing data as to the thickness of the earth's crust. It is not hoped to solve the perplexing problem of the distribution of the earth's matter, but it is hoped to add to the information collected concerning it. To this end the Red Jackit shaft presents advaptages possessed by no other place in the universe. The deep shafts in other parts of the country, and In foreign lands, generally begin at an altitude and end above or but very little below the sea level, whereas at the Calumet mine the Red Jacket shaft starts in a f a comparatively low altitude and pierces the earth's crust deeper and further below the ocean level than any other in existence. It is hoped within a year to be able to give some intelligent information regarding., the investigations.

In spite of the fact that there has been much unfavorable weather this year for oats, .the yield will be up to the average. The estimated average yield per acre in bushels is 15. The weather during August was very favorable for corn. It not only eared well, but began to ripen, so that some of it is already out of the way of frost. Beans have made a good growth and will yield well. The condition of potatoes Is lower than last year, which is due principally to the unfavorable weather early in the season.

[Original,.] General Nogi was sitting in his tent before Port Arthur when it was announced that Martin Bowies, an American who had been granted an interview, was waiting without. The gen« eral directed that the man be admitted. Martin Bowies was a light complexioned man, with very little of the American in him. Indeed, he had been In Europe^ ver since he was ten years old, and all of the Yankee had been dropped except the dare devil spirit that he bad inherited from his father, who had been one of Mosby's men In the American civil war, while his mother had been born in Connecticut. Young Bowles was closeted with General Nogi for two hours, at the end of which time he emerged from the tent and went his way. ' * * * * * * * The Russians in one of the principal forts defending Port Arthur were expecting a night attack. Their search lights wei^. moving nervously over the elopes beneath, star rockets were bursting in the air, casting brief and faint illuminations into depressions directly beneath them, while parachute torches served the same purpose of throwing light directly downward. On a side hill opposite the Russian forts crouched a man. The light east by the star rockets and parachutes was too faint to reveal him, out he would be readily seen if a searchlight were pointed directly at him. He watched their motions till he saw one coming in his direction. It was moving slowly, as if the searchers were examining every detail. Presently it reached his position and stopped. • There is something trying in having one of these silent sheaves of light pointed at yeur» You know-soai# hidden In darkness is teekh STRICTURE CURED YOU CAN PAY W H I N CURED.

Every stone, every blade of grass about you, glistening, tells how plainly you are seen, and you expect either to hear the spiteful "ping" of a sharp shooter's bullet or feel it pierce your vitals. But the man on the hillside had no such fear. Indeed, he was pleased when the light was turned upon him and stopped. He wore a tattered Russian unif6rm, and as soou as he was satisfied that he was observed he waved his hand, Then immediately the searchlight was turned away. /The man got up and walked rapidly down the hill. Midway between the position he had occupied and the fort he met a company of Russian soldiers. The commander of the fort had sent them to enable one of—their eonwades to enter his own lines. Perhaps he might have valuable Information. He was taken to the general, who questioned him eagerly. He said that he was Ivan Vestlovsky and had belonged to the garrison of a fort near by on the right which had been stormed and taken tne day before at dusk. He had escaped in the gathering darkness and hidden In. a deserted rifle pit on the hillside. There he had observed the dispositions of the Japanese, who were forming for an attack. "Where are their strongest forces?" asked the general, "on our right or left?' "From my position,"- replied Ivan, "under the light of your rockets and parachutes, I could see them massing on your left. There is a small force on your right, but they seemed to me to be nearly ready to move." "I see," said the general. "That wily fox Nogi Is going to feint on our right and storm our left." Then he gave orders to move the most effective guns to . the left. On the Russian right was the hill on which Ivan Vestlovsky had been discovered. It was Just high enough to prevent the Russians from seeing over its crest. On their left was a comparatively long stretch of open ground swept by their artillery, beyond which the gronnd was again uneven. At 2 o'clock in the morning suddenly a parachute revealed a force of Japanese marching in a depression In the ground far to the right where the view was not obstructed by the hill. At the time a considerable force" waa observed further away on the left. This seemed to confirm Ivan's story. But the force on the right grew larger and when within range an overwhelming force of Japanese hurried over the crest of the hill and before the guns could be turned swept on to the moat planted scaling ladders and in a twinkling the fort had been captured. "I wish to see General Nogi," said one of the Russian prisoners In fairly good Japanese. The officer in charge lookttl at the man ns If he suspected his sanity, but was still more surprised when th<> jrotieral hurrying up with his start* was hailed by the prisoner, and tuiuing I',UIH> up to him and cm bra red him. "We owe you- every tiling," he said. Thvn he told the officer that he would take the prisoner away with him. The two went to that side of the fort which had not been fotight over and when the general saw the guns all there he embraced the prisoner again. "Mr. Bowles," he said, "I saw through &*£. j?1*88- *il£ liu*5laPs m 9 v i u S these gtms aad Jaew'that your rase had beea'tnecessfttl.

AS American newspaper and I want permission to send dispatches." "Keep near to my headquarters," said the general with a grim smile. Mand I'll favor you whenever I can do It without risking my plans." "I knew I'd get there," said the Yankee. ARTHUR D. BERWICK. Very Low Rat** West and Korthwest.

A . J . TOWER CO., •oeroM, U.S.A. Whs f\r%4 the Shot? The next morning at an early hour a pistol shot rang out sharp jShd quick QOL th# still sir surrouudlng.ibs upper portion of Oroyedsje. It Vojs heard by many and commented upon. One or two heard the shot with some dismay, and msde their way at once In the direction of the sound. It sppesred to be, as I have said, at the upper end of the. village, and two or three men turned into the street approaching Mr. Hamilton's house and walked toward it together. These were the men who had followed the sound. When they reached the grounds of the house they saw a group of people ing about a figure lying on the The group consisted of Mr. Mrs. Hamilton and Mr- Carter, who stood back at their approach and plainly revealed to their gaze the form of Primus Bdes lying, <ace upward, on the ground. "Who did it?" asked one of the men, Mr. Green, excitedly. "That's more than we can tell," said Mr. Carter. "I heard a shot and jumped Into my clothes and came down. Vane had got here, somehow, before I did, and my niece followed me. That's all we knew about the matter." - i'£h0t himself, most likely," said Mr. Dawes,, a grocer on Main street. "Eadea, has looked down-hearted for ' aion^pttme.v I wonder where the pistol i*> It can't-be^» great ways off, if he did it himself"! "Tfimt's so," said the other man, looking about., But the grass a s short, there was no place w h e r s s Btstoi could be bidden from direct .gase. except behind a row. of rosebushes a few feet away. Green moved toward them to look, and, to his surprise, saw a small pistol plainly in sight in front of, not . behind, the, rose bushes. and four xnea. carried, the rase&tltfle form to hts boarding-place, where'he was tenderly csrsd for by Mrs. .$ri. The bullet wss extrscted h y D r . ifccx» and the wound thoroughly attended to. Then the physician left t h s hojsss^ ssylng he would look in s t his patient in an hour or so. Meanwhile an excited group of men were searching the grounds ' and woods about the Hamilton place for traces of a wpuld-be murderer, supposing the affair not to be an attempt st suicide. Many declared it most certainly was that, ths inclination of the wound being upward proved that his own hand fired the shot, unless it w s s dose by some person who steednear him s t the time. On the other hand, the river was near, and there were indications of a boat having been lately drawn up among the alders that fringed the bank, and later one was found a little below the village, where it had come to a natural moorage under an overhanging limb of an immense tree. The river was much shaded; it was not impossible for a person to have escaped that way while attention was being paid to the wounded man; and in that case he had most likely taken to the woods after leaving the boat. These surmises and the search kept the persons engaged in them from observing the great agitation of Mrs. Hamilton and her husband. They soon entered the house together, where Mrs. Hamilton suddenly faced him and asked, excitodly: = "Do you know how he was shot?1 "Assuredly,!, do not, Constance. I heard the shot and jumped out of bed at once. Being quicker than Mr. Carter I reached the spot a moment earlier, but I saw no one, and I was sure from the first that he shot himself." "But the pistol! It was not in his hand." "Doubtless he threw it before h e fell to the ground." -> "Are you my yhoat?" The World's Standard DE LAVAL CREAM 8EPARAT0RS 60Qy00O In Use.

"It is a wonder," said Mr. Hamilton, taking the pistol and looking it over. "There is no mark on it." "No; but if I don't mistake that pistol belongs to Dan Fry," said Mr. Green. "I sold him one like it not long ago." "You don't think Dan shot him?" said Mr. Carter, aghast. "No, I don't; I think he shot himself." "Well, I am sorry to have had it occur here," said Mr. Hamilton, glancing at his wife's terror-stricken face; Hitherto she had not spoken, but now her tongue was unloosened. "Why don't some of you see if he is really dead?" she cried. "Became. a„ man is shot it is no reason for thinking that he is dead." Mr. Hamilton quietly knelt and laid his hand on bis breast. "It beats feebly. He may rally. It is not cold here. We will not risk disturbing him until the doctor comes. Help me with the harness, Green." Working together, one of his horses was quickly harnessed, and the quarter of a mile distance to Dr. Peck's quickly covered. The doctor was at home and returned in the buggy, and in a few minutes was kneeling beside the recumbent figure. "The wound Is a bad one, but not necessarily fatal," he said, after he had examined with great care,. the hole made by the bullet in the temple. "He will have^tojoe taken somewhere " -^- * W . t a N r i 4 4 t .

"I was angry, and I told the man only yesterday to keep away* But he came this morning, it seems.: Served him right." "But he is different from other people, and be meant no harm, I am convinced." Primus Edes did not die. Indeed, he began to mend rapidly, though his mind wandered, the direct result of the injury to his brain. Constance, though she felt much anxiety, never went near him, nor to the house, but Mr. Hamilton called each morning, and questioned Mrs. Fry regarding his progress in recovery. "He seems better to-day," said Mrs. Fry, nearly three weeks after the shooting. "He looks brighter and takes notice of things. But, somehow, he acts a little mite queer." "How? Doesn't he know you?" "Yes, he called me Mrs. Fry, but he asked me why he was at my house,' and I told* him because he was fetched here, and,then he wanted to know why he wasn't taken home instid." '"It .is but natural that his mind should wander," said Mr. HamlUon. "I wish you would just step in and look at him." Mr. Hamilton hesitated for a moment and then followed Mrs. F,ry to the comfortable apartment where lay Primus Edes on his bed, pallid snd emaciated, his dark hair cropped short and his eyes shrunken. "Mr. Hamilton has called in to see you," said Mrs. Fry, approaching and straightening the bedclothes.

' "No, I am afraid his brain has been permanently Injured," said Mr. Hamilton, who seemed to be not a' little disturbed. "I will n o r go In again, my presence seems to agitate him." Mrs. Fry kept out of her boarder's room for an hour, snd when she entered she saw thst he w s s asleep. He slept s 4ong time, and appeared drowsy for awhile upon waking, but afterwards he looked about : the room, clear-eyed, though sliest, and Mrs. Fry softly went out, fearing that h e would question-her. But h e did not try to talk with her at all until the next morning, when he-said to her, quietly: "I want to talk with you,, Mrs. Fry. Why s m I sick here instead of at home?" "Oh, 'twas more conven^ent.,, "I should hardly think so. Such a short distance. Who was that man who called to see me yesterday?" "Mr. Hammerly, our minister. He's a dreadful nice man." "I mistook the name at first, or you did. Any way he looks enough like me to be my twin brother. Where is Constance—and the children?" "Constance!", said Mrs. Fry, staring at him with all her might.

There ain't nothin' the matter with none of them." "Then she must come to see me, for I am ^not able to go to her."; ;, He spoke with a decision new and strange. Mrs. Fry began to grow alarmed.

The, announcement made by Premier Katsura in regard to the real terms of the treaty has had an excellent effect, and it 1B not expected there will be any further outbreaks in the city/although there may be some minor demonstrations fa* the small?* "Hrffi an4 ouHyr ing districts before the news of favorable terms secured by the Japan* eae a^Por^mouth. has had a chance to circulate. According to the statement of Premier Katsura, which was made at a special meeting attended by the members of the diet, summoned for the purpose, Japan has the right to fortify the straits of La Perbuse and also has an entirely free hand in dealing with Korea. Greater concessions have been granted in Manchuria than had been announced at first. The railroad as far north a s Changschun is given over to Japan and the great coal deposits at Fushun and Yentai are also awarded the victorious nation. Russia made a desperate effort during the war to retain control of these mines as they are the only considerable deposits of coal in Manchuria; probably rendering it necessary for Russia to transport all her coal from Europe. ™Thls~aTinit^ though Japan did .not get a financial •canity, she is by no, m e a n s a loser by the settlement,' considering the advantages she will derive from the control of Korea an& the great commercial field opened up by the development of Manchuria. As for the prospect of Russia renewing the struggle for supremacy with Vladivostok as a base, the fortifying of La Perouse «tralts would be, an effectual barrier fa, any such use of that port, for Japan controls the only entrance to the sea of Japan, Sugaru straits being strong-, ly fortified and guarded as well as the Korean straits, controlling the southern entrance to the sea. Baron Yamomoto also spoke in favor of the treaty terms and pointed out that far greater loss of life would have been entailed in a siege of Vladivostok lhan~ln the taking of Port Arthur and Powder Mill Herror. ^ The Rand Powder mills at FairoBance were entirely wiped out by an explosion. Of the thirty-two m«n, who went ile work initio mills to the^norti- Hofc, nin*teeni A ^ i n o w n % b # dead. Of these, thirteen have been identified.

The concussion was like an ^ ^ V3 ' earthquake to the country roundabout and in the surrounding towns caused great excitement, which was not lessened by the fact that communication on the trolley line was broken off sev eral miles from here. the monetary outlay necessary to cbn tlnue the war long enough to take Harbin and Vladivostok would be far greater than that incurred in the conduct of the war up to the present time. He also impressed on the delegates the fact that Japan had reaped great advantages in every way of settlement and was now in a way where she can demand the respect of nations, being in no danger from foreign aggression. Marshal Yamagata has added his voice to the others raised in behalf of acceptance of the terms, although he says that the taking of Harbin would have been an easy task. The marshal, whose views are recorded in a lengthy interview in tlie Nichl Nichi Shimbun, says the continuation of the war would have simply meant the wasting of Japan's energy and resources without the prospect of adequate recompense, i r i s believed this statement by the famous old soldier will have a beneficial effect, as he is idolized by the whole people. •The iegatlcns are still guarded, but there were no further evidences of anti-foreign feeling today. It is stated on good authority that the burning of Christian churches and schools was brought by the mob's anger at the stand taken by the Salvation Army against the anti-peace agitation, and not to any general antagonism to the teachings of Christianity on the part of the people. The Harriman party left for Nikko, having abandoned the idea of carrying out the elaborate pro* gram arranged for their entertainment in that city. The attack upon the party on their way to the Sone dinner is regarded as the most deplorable event of the whole outbreak and prominent leaders express the hope that the incident may not result in any break between the two nations. fhaiiaaTui Mtammm aw^afeah*teia»fba» lotu his aanug arid pM^>umpes> oji ftwpou m eitkoQt wijAgTE1>.

A severe storm raged in the city only a few miles away, Friday but hardly a sprinkle fell at tbe grounds. The exhibit was fine in every department, many ot the nothern connties vieing with each other in fruit and vegetables. Some counties which have been considered as barren sand exhibited some very fine products. The grain was full Letter than in many years. Northwestern Canada had a very tine display of grain and other products the display being well set out by grain in the sheaf arranged artistically. Tbe side attractions were many and seemed well patronized.

Wallace, Kingoton Young tiers and Boys Clubs A recent writer has said: •"""Erery bad boy or lost girl convicts the commuaity-of guilt either in-the— past or present." As a rule we are only too ready to throw the burden of responsibility and error of guilt t>n other shoulders. "We say not the community but tbe parent is responsible for any failure of our young people." There is much truth in this idea. The lack of a high standard and carelessness and indifference on the part of parents are certainly responsible for very many of our bad boys and lost girls. Parents should watch their young men and women. Insist that they live right or leave the house. Know their company. It is outrage^^ ous and criminal for parents to allow their children so come and go when they will, with whom they choose and at what hour they elect. Pres. .-,¾ Sydney Sprout, assistant at Carleton.

Ross Parker, of Coldwater, treasurer of Co. A, M. N, G., found Rushes for Matting. In all the marshes surrounding the great lakes there is to be found a rush, the Juncus Littoralis, variety of Baltlcus, which may yet be found to have a value sufficient to make it an import ant item in the resources of the lake region. It Is believed this rush, which Has a straight, round, fibrous stem, with small bunches of brown seeds at the top, can be utilized in the weaving of matting sold so extensively in this country. -The rush attains, under favorable conditions, a hight of .45 to 60 inches, and its exceedingly tough fiber, together with the fact that even the tallest growths are exceedingly slender, give it its value.

Change in Tawas Bay. "Tawas bay will, before many years, have become an inland lake." This is the opinion of men who have been engaged in making a coast survey for the state, and conditions would seem to back up their opinion. In 1896 the Tawas bay lighthouse stood almost at the outer end of the point. Today the point extends over half a mile out beyond the lighthouse, and for some time past the govern- -monf. hns hepn nMfgpri fn maintain ft fog signal three-quarters of a mile from the light to warn mariners off the shoals forming there. The point extends almost directly across the mouth of the bay, which in a short time, as. time is reckoned in such matters, will have become a lake. A Terrible Struggle. For fifteen minutes Mrs. Cornelius Hages? a farmer's wife, living elgUt miles'east of Bay City, fought for her life with an enraged heifer. 'All-that time she clung to the animal's horns and was borne around and around an enclosure in which the animal was confined and which the woman had entered to look for eggs. The prong of one horn entered Mrs. Hages's thigh near its. juncture with the body and she was- cut and bruised in numerous places. Her clothing was practically all torn from her body. Watching her opportunity the woman dropped as the animal was opposite the opening in the enclosure and escaped into the house. ttENTENCE SERMONS. The lust of money kills the lov« of men. There Is no gaining love1 without giving it. No man can do great work who'^iri not wait >u No man is utterly, toe t so long as anyYoa^ loves him.• ^ , ^ I Success is sure to him wc<kdofi* V>t fear to face failure. Patience punctures many » portentous looking obstacle. No man ever shares his self-aAtisfnctlon with any one else.' Nothing chills the church quicker than a hotheaded sermon. It's a great loss when a man's keenness cuts out his kindness. The poorest of all churches la the one where-there are-ao-poor. __ There Is more grace in any secular smile than in the holiest groans. The fruits of righteousness do not grow from the flowers of rhetoric. A man is never much nearer heaven than when he makes a child happy. People who stir up strife generally tumble into it when it is fairly boiling over. If you get your sermons out of books you might as well leave them there.

Mrs. John Vance Cheney's cult of right thinking Is immensely popular in New York. She has a creed and gospels which are chefished by her followers. Some gleanings from her leetures are as follows: : Used Public Funds. Alleging that David E. Sherrick, auditor of state, Is guilty of "a plain and inexcusable violation of the law and a gross betrayal of public trust" in that he invested funds belonging to the state in private affairs, to the extent of about $145,000; Gov. Hanly, of Indiana, issued an executive order, in which he took cognizance of a vacancy in the office and appointed Warren Bigler, of Wabash, as his1 successor. Later Sherrick sent his resignation •A finv Manl^ whn nr»heptArt U anH entered an order appointing Warren Bigler, of Wabash, to the office of state auditor. Bigler accepted by telegraph; A U.

Two handsome gold watches and $20 constituted the loot secured from three rooms. Robert E. Robinson, president of the village of Mackinaw City, and for 22 years an extensive fish' shipper, was accidentally killed while cleaning a shotgun in his office, the charge striking him in the neck. He was dead when found. The residence of James Weisauhn, living near Standish, wag destroyed by fire. In trying to save some of the household goods, Mrs. Weishuhn cuf her arm, nearly-severing it, on a piece of glass, and nearly bled to death. Her condition is critical. A telegram cays that Nelson Olson, "supposed (o be a Putt Huron rcsident-- was found dying along the railroad tracks in one of the suburbs near Buffalo. It is thought that he met with foul play, as a deep gash was cut in the back of his head. ' While raking in a field where dyna mite had been used in blastinc stumps, Tony, son of Daniel Mckin ley, of Traverse City, had bis facf and hands badly lacerated by the explosion of a cartridge^ part of whicft imbedded itself in his skull. A party of Calumet ladies were out at the lake shore and noticed a pack age under a log, with some stones on it. The two ladles unwrapped it and were horrified to see the head of an infant drop out. An investigation is being conducted by the authorities. John Jostock, a farmer living near Five Lakes, went out Saturday morning to feed his team, and when he did not return It was thought he had been drowned in the lake. Later in the day, however, he was found rushing about through the woods, a raving maniac. Michael Frost, hailing from Detroit, was caught in the act of burglarizing a second-hand store in Bay City. A letter in his pocket from Detroit warned him to stay in Bay City as the Detroit police were looking for him. He had considerable Jewelry on his person. Dean Ople, the pretty and accomplished 18-year-old daughter of Harry Opie, of Port Huron, has run away from home for a theatrical career.

He took it and held U before him. A cry broke from bis lips. , "Bring me another," be said; "this U good for nothing." Obediently she went into Mrs. Fry's bedroom and 'brought him another, larger and better. "What does It mean, Constance?" 4 he asked, lifting a wild, haggard face to hers. "Is my hair a dark brown, or is it the fault of this damnable glass?" ''Your hair is a dark brown, certainly— almost black," "Can a man's hair turn from light to dark?" "I never knew that it could." "Well, it has, whether any such case was ever known before or>not; but when did it happen?" "I cannot say, f0r I know nothing about the matter in any way; But you say you ate Vane Hamilton. How can you prove it?" . ^ "Say that I am Vane Hamilton? Is not that enough? Don't you know that I am?" and he looked at her evidently greatly astonished. "No, I don't know that you are. Strange things have happened since toy husband went away. He did not return as we expected, and strange rumors started up meanwhile, that astonished me greatly. It was said he went away with a woman named woman with emerald-colored hair. Do you know beTr?"- "I have heard of her," he replied evasively. "Then," she continued, "it was feared he had been drowned in the river, or that he had met with some foul play, for a body was found in it that it was thouerh*, might be his. This idea followed tbe bank troubles." "What bank troubles?" "Constance, you did come—I knew yo u would!" and allowed htm to draw her toward liim. "My darling/' he said, kissing her tenderly, while she sobbed in his arms. "Don't cry, but sit here besiia me and let us talk awhile. You know whether I,,am Vane Hamilton*or not. Mrs. Fry," and he smiled at tbe good woman, who stood as if petrified, "pretended she did not know me." "The good Lord deliver vjneJ" was all she coutd say. Then in a" dumbfounded manner she walked from the room. "Is she right in her mind, do you think, Constance?" he whispered. "Oh, I don't know, I don'^know," said Constance, taking a chair at the window, in a- distressed tone. "I feel as if we were all demented.

"It is falseL I never did it—never! It i s a conspiracy to rob me of my good name." "Almost the exact words of another," thought Constance.' .

"No, * don't you see I am in • torment?" he said, irritably. "I want to know whether I was murdered, or whether I turned out to be a bank robber. - By Heavens! what fools there are in this world!"

The Curiously 'Contrived Ending of Shakespeare's Heroine. The tragtc death of Desdomona, according to the Paris Menestrel, which has recently completed some interesting researches among the archives of the Querini family, of which Sbakspeare's Othello was a member, really occurred in Crete in the year 1523. Desdemona, whose name signifies "damsel of the house of demons," met her death, according to this new version in a singular manner. . Othello had charged his valet with the carrying out of his revenge. The hurried accents, "I cannot come here [ again if you ask me to kiss you, or say anything to me about it.

That he wants to git you himself away from the other one, and he didn't know uu uthei way." To Kill Ruler*. According to telegrams received from Belgrade, a plot has been dis covered there and at Sofia to foment a general outbreak in the Balkans, with ^Pvlgw~of-compelling tho interferenceof the powers in the. hope that Macedonian autonomy would be proclaimed. The alleged plot included an intention to assassinate King Peter of Servia and Prince Ferdinand of Bulgaria. Those engaged in the plot at Sofia have.been imprisoned. It is added that j t o e s and cabbage and fourteen apple the recent attempt to assassinate th€ j tarts, the whole washed down with where he started groaning and-shutfling with his feet. Othello thereupon requested his wife to rise and Aiscover the cause of the noise. As she crossed the threshold a sackful of grass was flung at her head. She fell to the ground, andwas then- assailed with a succession of similar grass-filled sacks, being finally smothered under the falling ceiling and masonry of the walls, which had been specially loosened at Othello's orders. i .» . — -,i> Giant Had Healthy Appetite.

Advices from Tokio say that incen diary post-cards have been received a' the Tokio foreign office threatening that Baron Komura will be assassinat ed on his return from America. Th€ Tokio Yomiuri publishes the text ol one, which says: "Baron Komura, our plenipotentiary borne. 1 CrVb%^ec*rtl»oed.> in America, hearing Russia's bluff, has made concession on concession, so that the victory of the war is to the van quisKed. If this is true we shall take oft* the heads of Count Katsura and Baron Komura and take suitable steps against their coadjutors." It Is Horrible. A "holy war" has been proclaimed in the Caucasian districts of Zangezur and Jebrall where Tartars are massacring the Armenians without distinction of sex or age. The country is swarming with bands of Tartars under the leadership of their chiefs. Many thousands of Tartar horsemen have crossed the Perao-Russian frontier and joined the insurgents ic destroying Armenian JtiHages. At the village of Minkend 300 Ar menlan3 were slaughtered; Dispatches say that mutilated chil dren were thrown to the dogs and that the few survivors were forced to embrace Islamism in order to save their lives. Naphtha firms are cut off from the delivery of oil fuel to the shipping companies, which are now confronted with the necessity of suspending theii services and discharging their employes, which will result in leaving thousands with no means of subsistence. The salt works at Baskunchak have been obliged to close, owing to the scarcity of fuel, and this will paralyze the fishing industry.

Indeed, the best doctors are those who seek to heal with as little use of drugs as possible and by the use of correct food and drink. A physician writes from Calif, to tell how he made a well man of himself with Nature's remedy: "Before I came from Europe, where I was born," he says, "it was my custom to take coffee, with milk (cafe aa lait) with my morning meal, a small cup (cafe noir) after my dinner and two or three additional small cups at my club during the everting. "In time nervous symptoms devel* oped, wTOTpalns in the cardtae regiony and accompanied by great depression of spirits, despondency—in brief, "the blues!" I at first tried medicines, but got no relief and at last realized that all my troubles were caused by coffee. I thereupon quit its use forthwith, substituting English Breakfast Tea. "The tea seemed to help me at first, but in time the old distressing symptoms returned, and 1 quit it also, and tried to use milk for my table beverage. This I was compelled however to abandon speedily, for. while it relieved the nervousness somewhat, it brought on constipation. Then ~by a happy inspiration I was led to try ita Postum Food Coffee. This waa some months ago and I still use it. I am no longer nervous, nor do I suffer from the pains about the heart, while my 'blues' have left me and life is bright to me once more.

Something that costs nothing until started and all expense stops the instant the power stops? An engine that always goes no matter what the weather conditions may be? If so, let us tell you more about Ideal engines, which are guaranteed for one year, and sent out to responsible farmers on a 10 days' trial. We make a specialty o f a 5 H P . engine that is adapted to farm use. It costs but little more for gasoline to pump water with this engine than it does with a smaller one, which is of no practical use except for pumping.

"A cooly was discovered one morning near a Kinta mine, havLug apparently passed the night in the trap. When roused he said that sleep had overtaken him, and so he chose the one spot least likely for the tiger to visit—the trap that had heen set for a year without result. He thought that the tiger knew a thing or two about traps." ' No pill is as pleasant and positive as , DeWitt's Little Early Risers.

A buryin* ground, however, actually wag discovered in the early part of the last century in which all of the skeletons were of pigmy proportions. Some of theft, were carried away to college wi*eums.

G. Meukel, of 2975 Jackson avenue, Dubuque, Iowa, in describing his experience to a reporter, •'* and it is uot surprising that I contracted rheumatism. For three years I had attacks nffecting Hie joints of my aukles, knees and elbows. My ankles and kuees became so swollen I could scarcely walk on uneven ground and a little pressure from a stone under my feet would cause me so much pain that \ would nearly sink down. I was often obliged to lie in bed for several days at a time. My friends who were similarly troubled were getting no relief from doctors ahd I did uot feel encouraged to throw money away for nothing. By^ chance I read the story of Robert Yates, of the Klauer Manufacturing Co., of Dubuque, who had a very bad case of rheumatism. I decided to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills fior Pale People, the remedy he had used. In three or four weeks after beginning to use the pills, I was much better and in three months I was well. The swelling of the joints and tht, tenderness disappeared, I could work steadily and for eight yearg I have had HO return of the trouble. My whole family believe in Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.

There has been a good deal o£-quiet talk in Japanese circles and among FAKE ^TORY. THI of the illness of Baron Komurs and -the suggestion made by the party of Japanese in Sioux City, Iowa, that the chief Japanese envoy was, as a matter of fact, deliberately killing himself by slow poison ia deference to the public condemnation of the Portsmouth treaty, flnds no little credence among the Japanese, One of the leading members of the Japanese colony of New York said: - • "It would be perfectly in accord with the code of "aushide," which governs the lives of men of Baron Komura's clan to commit suicide in the situation in which he finds himself. This code recognizes the propriety of any servant of the mikado who falls to accept any task set him, expiating the fault by a self-inflicted death. , He is not only justified, but in fact it is his duty. That the fault may have been due to conditions absolutely^ beyond his control does not affect the -trther^- ' situation one way or the Peace Is Possible. The first official announcement at Karlstad indicating that the delegates of Norway and Sweden were approaching an understanding in their effort to establish a modus vivendi for "the countries as separate, governments, was given out at the close of the Joint session of the delegates. This announcement reads: "The probabilities are that in the near future the negotiations can be brought to a definite result." This somewhat cryptic announcement is accepted as indicating that the negdtla*tiori8 have 'finally reached a stage where an agreement is in sight, and that a resort to arms, which might have involved other powers, may safely be considered to be out of the question. taaaafpa * Canaf Sis.

Big Can, lOo Clears Up the Situation. The anti-peace party of Tokio is rejoicing over the resignation of Minister of the Interior Viscount Yoshikawa, whose suppression of projected mass meetings was said to be the direct cause of the recent riots and "anti-foreign demonstrations." Baron Kiyoura, minister of agriculture, will succeed to the vacant portfolio. The resignation of Minister Yoshikawa will obviate the necessity of the proposed interpellation of the government by members of the opposition in the diet and postpone the expected dash probably until the treaty has been_4^tifieaV- ; Anarchy, Pillage and Plunder. The .latest news received in St. Petersburg from Baku reports that the situation there is growing worse. Other unconfirmed dispatches assert that the rioters are stubbornly continuing their attacks and that the Tar tars and Kurds are plundering in the "black town" district. The dispatches say that on Sunday the soldiers fired into a crowd of Russian workmen, killing 17. A dispatch to the Caucasus Oil Co. from Baku says that the fires in the oil fields are practically exhausted and that the military authorities are stationing guards in the district. During the night, the dispatch says, Incendiaries trred to land at Biblebat from small boats, .but were driven off by volleys from the Cossacks. They then attacked steamers in which the employes of two oil companies had taken refuge during the uprising but the attack was repulsed. The incendiaries succeeded in setting fire to three machine shops in the Uolshkin district, killing the proprietor of one. •The Oldest Man.

The Japanese, with their natural, taaophifltlcated view of life, have ever •ought In their art to mirror what a peat painter and critic has tanned *knen's primordial predilections." Art, ever, that seeks to embody pleasfounded on the unchanging properties of human nature must have a part as well as a future, must be able to look backward as well as forward. Not one's life labor, but that of many g*neratlons, is required. No people have better understood this than the Japanese. They have also dearly perceived that uo art that is not true to the changeless element lu man can endure, while, on the other hand, any subject, however trivial, can be made eternally attractive if only treated iu accordance with aesthetic law. Japanese painting delights us by its delicate fancy, its poetry, its freedom, fta spirit, but what gives theae qualities special and enduring charm, what makes the play of fancy never wearisome, the liberty never mere license, Is that they find expression In and ftirrmgfr p f r a m p w o r l r nt flAwlyn an ( | I U L IMPROVED BUSHEL CRATES D u r a b l e and Strong M a n f . b y Will Allen, Howell, - Mich* 3 iff Notice to P..R.

Rats Causing Damage. Meter readers of the Kalamazoo Gas & Light Co., who make monthly trips to the basement of ail the business blocks of- the city, say .that rats are undermining.many of the older buildin grs of the city. Thousands of the rodents are in the buildings, and have been at work for years.1 The inspectors declare that the>e is danger of some of the buildings giving away unless the rats are exterminated. They oite ten buildings in whicn they say 513. The net profits this year are said the foundations are half torn away to be about $40,000. It is estimated that the total attendance was 200,000. President-elect Fred Postal and Director A. B. Stevenson, of Port Huron, will go to Grand Rapids to visit the West Michigan fair, and to the state fair at Springfield, 111., to pick up ideas which may be of value In making improvements for next year. Mr. Postal says he has no intention of dominating the state fair management, and he wants no action taken without the full co-operation of the other members on the board. In three buildings in the last year cement foundations have been put in to hold the buildings up. Not a building among the old ones of the.city Is free from hundreds of holes made by the rodents.

The city's water supply may or may not be the cause of their presence. The department of health is taking every precautionary measure to prevent increase of cases, but this is always done. A pound of precaution is worth a ton of cure. The statement that there have been thus far in September four times as many cases as in the entire month of September of last year Is a gross exaggeration." The smart young men of Newport hare taken to growing mustaches, thereby setting a fashion that the ijoorest of young men can generally •bllow. M\ ; : — ? A captious New York editor finds fault with the design of the new $58 gold certificates. Most of us ar6 too glad to see-.one to think of picking flaws in it.

It's* a pity tha/t'the successful men Who tell young , men how to do it cannot be put in the running a second time. We wonder how many of them would hit it twice. Per* Marquette Accidents. A freight wreck at Alexis, 15 miles south of Monroe,. Saturday, entirely blocked traffic on the Ann Arbor road aud caused the Pere Marquette to send its trains from Monroe to Toledo over the {Lake Shore tracks. This is the second time this week that the Pere Marquette traffic has been tied up. Three days ago there was a wreck . south of Monroe, Two hundred passengers going north on No. 92 Pere Marqttette trait fret* Muskegon had narrow escapes from death as a result of a rear end collision with a logging train which was coming down from the north yards. The* trains came together after the passenger engineer had seen the approaching collision and had slowed down enough to avert a disaster. The engine of the logging train was considerably damaged and the passengers' in the coaches given a severe shaking up. The wreck delayed traffic about an hour. What a wonderful thing is the law! The New York judge who says he was within the law in bani&hing a woman from Gotham adds that the law cannot compel her to go away. President Palma says that the day «f^his defeat-would be the happiest of his life. Now we know why men become candidates when there is not the slightest chance of success. The "surprise party" is the latest thing at Newport. Thus do the most complex products of ornate civilization suddenly revert to first principles.

Nowhere are the ugly developments In connection with the Cuban presidential campaign watched with a keener interest than ha "Washington. The Beries of disorders, which culminated in the bloody fight at Cienfuegos has been the subject of a number of conferences between high officiate; of the aayy-and war and state departments and by special direction of President Jtoo^veU he has been.kept in close touch with the Cuban situation. Under the Piatt agreement, the United States is empowered to send troops to Cuba should it become necessary for the preservation of order. It has been evident for some time that such a condition would probably arise as to call for such action and the United States is fully prepared to fulfill its obligations, without loss of time. Sweden and Norway Part. After protracted sessions extending over some weeks, the Norwegian and Swedish delegates who mot to settle the terms of separation of the two countries, Saturday evening, arrived at an agreement on all points. The delegates refused to discuss the terms of agreement, simply saying that they would be given out later. Dr. Nansen says that Norway made dissolution of the union the first essential condition of peace, in which Greater Sweden was obliged to acquiesce. The Norwegians do not desire to humiliate or be humiliated. A binding arbitration treaty is a better frontier for defense than a fortress. To Probe Army and Navy.

South Bend, Ind., Sept. 25th (Special)— After suffering from Kidney Disease for three years; after takingtreatment from six different doctors without getting relief, Mr. J. O. .Laudeman of this place found not only relief but a speedy and complete cure In Dodd's Kidney Pll.'s. Speaking of his cure Mr. Laudeman says: "Yes, I suffered from Kidney Trouble for three years and tried six doctors to no good. Then I took just two boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills and they not only cured my kidneys, but gave me better health in general. Of course I recommended Dodd's Kidney Pills to others and I know ft number now who are 'using them with good re? suit's." " ': ' : Mr. Laudeman'a case'is not an exception. Thousands give . similar experiences. For there never yet was a case of Kidney Trouble from Back* acne to Bright's Disease that Dodd's Kidney Pills could not cure. They are the only remedy that ever cured Bright's Disease. Apples Long a Food. The apple has been eaten by man longer than any other fruit.

Every pest that the farmer can get rid of he knows it to be for his own good to do so. The surface of fall plowed ground is drier in the spring at planting time than ground not so treated and some farm* •ers might think that It does not contain as much moisture, but I find that it does. The rainfall is enabled to better penetrate the sub-soil which allows the surface of fall plowed ground to dry more rapidly.- If you have not experienced fall plowing, try it, and jpu will find that fall plowed ground Jjas a drier surface and contains more oisture at planting time in the spring an ground which has not been plowed In the fall. I believe in localities where there is much rain during the winter, it is better not to harrow the fall plowed ground la the autumn, especially where there are fine, clay soils that run together and pack down. If we have a dry summer we will find that fall ^plowed ground will yield better crpjps" than spring-1- plowed ground.—1 S: Underwood, Johnson Co., 111., In Farmers' Review. Canada's Export of Poultry Products. Canada has been for a number of years making special efforts to secure a large Share of England's trade is poultry products. The Canadian government has spent a good deal of flscney in teaching the farmers how to Jfciten poultry and dtess it in the most approved fash-ion. Yet the Canadians have not been able td export much in excess of a million dollars worth a year. But the reason' has not been -that the English did. not. like Canadian poultry products.

The satisfactory lighting of sflbutban and ^country homes requires that the means used shall be convenient, safe, economical and furnish a brll- JJsni,, penetrating, effulgent light. Ever/body admits that these are. not the characteristics of the candle or kerosene lamp, which, formerly,. were the only feasible means of producing light for domestic use in the rural districts. For generations there was a crying need, a yearning for something better, which was not satisfied, A few years ago deliverance came in the shape of the chemical compound, Calcium Carbide, 1 from which, by the simple application of water, the gds Acetylene Is derived'. Acetylene meets ail the requirements fully and admirably and is being gonorolly used. Common lime and carbon in the form of coke or coal are the raw materials which, fused In an intensely heated furnace, make Calcium Carbide, and,there 1B no difficulty in obtaining it in any past of the country. The machine into which the Calcium Carbide is fed and from which the' Acetylene is distributed through the;building to be lighted, is but little larger than a thirty-gallon milk can, and of the same general form. It ia easily and cheaply installed, either in the cellar or in an out-building. : The light from burning Acetylene iflrexquisite, and lighting experts agree that It surpasses all other known illumrnants.

That is only possible by ust of skilfully selected food that exactly fits the requirements of the body. Poor fuel makes a poor fire and a poor fire is not a good steam producer. "From not knowing how to select the right food to fit my needs, I suffered grievously for a long time from stomach troubles," writes a lady from a little town in Missouri._ "It seemed as if I would never be able to find out the sort of food that was best for me. Hardly anything that I could eat would stay on my stomach. Every attempt gave me heart-burn and filled my stomach with gas. I got thinner and thinner until I literally became a living skeleton and in time was compelled to keep to my bed, "A few months ago I was persuaded to try Grape-Nuts food, and It had such good effect from the very beginning that I have kept up its use ever since.

To those who meet Queen Alexandra constantly it probably does not seem strange to address her as "ma'am," but to unaccustomed ears this monosyllable'does not sound quits, vespeetfulv. Yet« according to the Ladies' Field, the queen is addressed as "inA'ajn" by all the members o|. the upper classes, the term "your majeety" being rarely used except on formal'occasions, while the Prince of Wales and all the princes of the royal blood of England are addressed as "sir." Yet foreign princes and princesses bearing the title of serene highness must not be addressed as sir or ma'am, but as prince ami princess. A letter to the sovereign must begin thus: "His majesty "ttbriring-," and belo* the single word. "sir." The conclusion of the letter would be worded as follows: "I have the honor to subnjlt myself, your majesty's most humble and devoted servant," etc. Another curious bit of royal etiquette provides that when members of the royal family are present at a dinner finger glasses must be supplied for their use at dessert, but not forlb* other guests. When the king and que w» play bridge or any other* round game money fresh from'the mist nrttat be provided. Invitations from "the1 sovereign are commands, and must be treated as such. Only the death 41 % near relative, serious Illness or compulsory, absence from England can be glveno as reasons for non-acceptarfce. A previous engagement can never be pleaded as an excuse. Answers to royal invitations shoiild be written in' the third person. Communications with royalty are usually made through the controller of the household; It is^entirely Incorrect to write to :ihe royal personage himself—that is to say, In ordinary circumstances, for the rights of friendship and affection override even the observances of a court. Introductions to royal personages are made only at their request. When the presentation is made, the lady presented should make a low but quick curtesy—a sort of "bob"—and a man gives a deeprrespectful bow. The royal personages usually shake hands and begin a conversation at once; the person presented must on no account speak first, nor offer to shake hands. The initiative is always taken by royalty. The actual Introduction is-made thus: "Lady Blank, your majesty;'* "Mrs. West, sir;" "Miss John West, ma'am.'* Bereaved Husband Needed the Tiger tils Wlf» Had Recently Died and He Was Seeking Congenial S o c i e t y — E n g l i s h Newspaper Responsible for Story* At a salo of animals from a hippoirome a tiger was being offered.

One of the very earliest human settlements In Europe is Roche Corbon, on the banks of the Loire, seven miles above Tours. Here limestone cliffs stretch for miles and are pigeonholed with caves, which are on different levers and open on to terraces. When the rest of the country was nothing but forest land Roche Corbon was a thriving settlement inhabited by wild skin clad predecessors of the present cave dWeHers. These terraces and caves were formed by the action of mighty rivers, and during the glacial period, when the climate df that portion of France was very severe, man drove out the bears and hyenas and took refuge In these natural shelters, which faced south, and so became human settlements of a primitive sort. Near at hand were the rivers and great forests full of fish and game. 148 SHELBY STREET, DETROIT, MICH. Tho dreaded Wash D a y - n o mora.

Birds, their heads being small, are usually regarded as stupid, but an amateur naturalist has pointed out a proof that the oriole at least is very intelligent. Take the oriole's habitat In the summer, he said, and all around It you will find the decapitated bodies of bees. The oriole is fond of honey, and he has discovered somehow that the bee carries honey in a sac. Accordingly he rushes down on the insect, snips off its head, removes its viscera and then swallows the honey that Is now laid bare. This shows Intelligence on the oriole's part, but I have not yet described the thing which shows the bird's reasoning power most strongly. It Is the stingless male white headed bees that the oridle slays. The stinging bee he leaves alone wisely. For farther information, apply to F. R. Mosier, T. P. A. 113 Adams S t . Chicago, 111.

My mother was nearly frantic, for she had set her heart on her two remaining children after her tittle daughter died, and it seemed for a long time as If she would be insane.

"No, no; but J must tell you both listen." And with a certain majestic sternness which robbed'-her words of all save the terrible significance of the manifestly truthful account, she related what had taken place at the house of Mrs. Fry. "Bless my soul, *h&" man's . stark, raving crazy! We'll have to be carried to Concord. Did you know he was crazy to begin, with?" "I don't know h nirw,-Uncle Carter."

It is something worse than Insanity; ^t i£ scoundreHsm of the deepest, darkest dye/' said Mr. Hamilton, between his They all sat silent after that, as if words were futile at such a crisis, at such an asfoundlng1levent. Mr.'franv JHonrwas th»'frrst ,tb recover himself, and, to their surprise^ he spoke much in his usual tones. ""There is no sense in~aUowTng^sUcn~ a man to move,us from -our usual ways. It is worse for film than, for us: An attempt at blacftmai) so barefaced is not to be considered a moment.. The fact.of my having lost my sense of personality while away, no doubt, struck him as a reason why he could put in the same plea of iorgetfulness. But in this he has overreached himself. No one'. will rive er. Take two wee^or~eveiTTeaT tn- May, the month of his loss to me, and seek for him. You will then have fifty weeks left for yourself,' she said; 'will you promise?' I promised. Then she took a ring from her finger and gave it to me, in trust, for him should I ever find him. .1 found the words engraved inside the ring, and I always carried it with me when I went on my search. "You will see, Constance, why I hesitated to take yeu into my confidence. You would have considered it foolish for me to leave my business each year and go seeking about the country for a brother who it was be- Vaved had died in his infancy. For four years I could learn nothing about the matter; the fifth I fancied that I had found a trace, but, if so, Constance, my brother was not a good manTfor irwais among desperate men- =means of 4udging2l that he was . classed—men who had violated tne~Taw ^afiy times next year' I saw a description of this man in a newspaper. He went usually by the name of Ashley, It was stated, and he had a wife, a beautiful, green-haired women; her -name was Lenora. I learned what I could about them, and decided that at last 1 was on the track of my long-lbsf twin brother Last May I was much excited. I could scarcely wait for the time "There is none, none, except this ^Tng-I vague impression that ho -is- notr and-—" "And that I am. Bless you; my dearest, for those words.'

There was no more said between them about the matter, and the dinner progressed in silence, though ; it must be owned that neither ate heartily. But they arose to go to the office Afterwards as if nothing unusual had occurred. Constance meant to see Primus &des and ask him a few questions. Accordingly she went over about three o'clock and made her errand known to Mrs. Fry, who .ushered her into the sick-room, remaining -thereherself, as Constance requested. "Constance," he cried, "so you did come again. I did not bope to see you till to-morrow." "I want to ask you a few question^. I came for that," said she, quietly. "You say you are Vane Hamilton. Tell me, then, why you went away every year in May." "I will. I foel now that I ought to have done so before. But I shrank from it, fancying that you would think my quest a foolish one. "You remember my mother, Constance— a sad, delicate woman who seldom smiled; but you never knew the reason of her sadness, nor did J, till a short time before she died. Then she told me. She had three children, a girl and two sons, who were twins. My sister died in childhood, and my brother, also, as I supposed; but she, Mt seems, always doubted ft. As you know, Constance, I was one of the twins, and the other was stolen. Bfy dW/Bfe&i wh<^w*]ja, >V«ytt##gr, *t that time, llY.ed in ©mjnrae.w York. The juirse, who had charge of vs, took our carriage, which was a double one, to th* park o*» day, as usual Thar* to come. I meant fully to find my brother, give him my mother's ring and message, and appeal to him in the name of her love and our relationship to become a different man. You opposed ray going, you recollect, but I persevered, for I reasoned that very soon the quest would be ended. "As I walked down the street a lady came out of the Essex House and spoKe to me as if she knew me. In a moment I became convlnced.that she was Lenora, from the strange color of her hair, and that she mistook me for my brother. I could not talk with her there, and I asked her if I could not speak with her in some place that she would name. I was going on thelrain that morning, I told her. She asked me which way, and 1 replied J to Portland. 3he said: she could see me on the train, then. I saw her on the train, and that is as far as my recollection goes. "My mind became eclipsed'soon after I left Grovedale, I -think, for I remember nothing that she said to me or that I said to her. But how, or why, I came here, I know no more than you do. Doubtless, It was through some dumb instinct that took the place of active intelligence. You say I seemed attracted toward you and the children, and I think that is no Wonder. * "I know nothing about my existence as Primus Edes.

"I did not feel sure that he was; but he lives in the same house with us, and the children* are gpeatly attached to him, particularly Clare." "What does it all mean?

Special commissions from the department of agriculture and the'ministry of the interior will take charge of the belief work in the famine districts of ^uss^a.,,wThe _post, of thiq work is estimated by the government at 120,000,000. No acute distress has as yet been reported and the government hopes by a prompt distribution of food, seed, grain and fodder and the employment of the famine-stricken populace on public works to tide over the people until the new harvest. An observer of the situation who returned from a tour of southern Russia states that bags of grain were piled np in perfect mountains at many stations, some of which were left over from the 1904 harvest, waiting for cars to move them. Czar to Call Peace Conference. The issuance of the call for the second Hague peace conference by the czar will be made with the full knowledge and consent of all the great powers. The matter has been under advls# ment and has been the subject of correspondence between the foreign office at St. Petersburg and the fortilgn offices uf Lho powers and of the United States ever since Russia consented to send envoys to meet those of Japan, and It became practically certain that peace Would be restored. It Is said here that it was a suggestion of President Roosevelt that the call should come from Russia. The American chief execntlve announced his willingness to father the next conference which it Is hoped will practically make a great war Impossible in the future, but he-expressed the opinion that it would be better that the czar who had called the first conference should take the. initiative at this time. While no formal action has as yet been taken, I am assured that all the powers, including Japan, have signified their willingness to send delegates an4 that'in most cases they will be Invested with more complete power than has ever been granted before. The time for the sending'of the formal invitation has not yet been determined* but it will not long.be delayed and probably be shortly after the exchange of ratifications of the peace treaty between Russia and Japan. It is not believed the conference will be held before next spring when the repatriation of the armies- in Manchuria will have beeu practically concluded. . • Senator Tom Piatt III. Word reaches.
