RESCUED FROM GYPSIES Most Marvelous Case Known to Med* ical Annals—Girl Sold to Gypsy Escapes. Pierced Hit Brain. Thomas W. Brockman, of BaUey, Mich., died in Hackley hospital, Muskegon, from injuries caused by a falling tree while lumbering. Hie case has been one of the most marvelous known in medical annals. For over six weeks he has lived with a hole two inches in width piercing his skull and with a great portion of his brain removed, The accident in which he was injured occurred at Beech w o o d s a n d was caused by a falling tree crashing on his brain. When picked up he still lived after receiving injuries sufficient to have killed any man instantly. Brought to the hospital in an ambulance It was found on examination that a small block of wood and two inches of cap cloth were lodged in his brain. An operation to remove these was tern porarily successful, but a few days ago unforeseen complications set in. Local physicians, as well as out of town experts, are deeply disappointed at- Brockman's untimely death as it was-thought his case might prove extraordinary in surviving the operation. Brockman was a young man but 18 years of age and leaves his parents, two brothers and a sister, all residing at Bailey. Gypsy Girl Wife Rescued. Sold into bondage by her father, Malica Adams, aged 15, after four years, has been restored to her uncle In Grand Rapids. Joseph Adams sold his daughter to the leader of a band •of gypsies, and she became the bride of his 13-year-old son three years ago. The child wife became a palmist, but finally tired of the gypsy customs. At Harvey, III., she learned that her uncle a n d aunt, Alexander and Mary Adams, were residing in Grand Rapids. She did not like her life and ran away to join them. She was taken in charge by officers, with her uncle, Alexander Adams, a week ago. She has been vindicated of the charge preferred against her by Joe Stephens, another Servian gypsy. Stephens charged her with the larceny of $500, but it developed that the grounds for making the charge were based solely on the girl's absence. She was sold to him for the sum named by her father and was the star fortune teller of the camp. She has papers from the juvenile court of Chicago to prove her story and attest her innocence of the charge made. Boy Dies of Lockjaw. Herbert Goodsell died Saturday morning at the family home in Pontiac of lockjaw, the result of a Fourth of July accident. , He was the lo-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Gcodsoll, who have six other children. The night before the Fourth he was playing with a L'2-caliber pistol, and received .a discharge from it in the palm of his right hand. Later, tetanus developed, .and despite the effort of the physician, lockjaw set in Thursday. The' little fellow's back curved like a crescent. H3 lay on the back of his head and the lowvr part of his spine, suffering untold agony until death relieved him. THE UNFORTUNATES. 8uits to Recover For Care of Insane Persona By the 8tate. Two important suits relative to financial responsibility for persons in the insane asylum are in the probate court at Kalamazoo. Prosecuting Attorney Jackson brought suit against James Murray, guard- Ian of Thomas M. Murray, an inmate of the asylum, to compel him to pay the expenses of James A. Murray, a son of Thomas Murray, who, like the father, is in the asylum. Young Murray is about 24 years of age and the state claims that the estate of his father is liable for the support. Judge Hopkins decided that the public should not pay the expenses, and ordered $500 paid for the past expenses and $120 a year in the future. The case will be appealed to the supreme court. The second case is that of Mrs. Iva Van Haaften, an inmate of the asylum, 'and whose bills remain unpaid. Her husband recently tried to secure a divorce from her on the grounds that she was Insane when they were married. The decree was denied. The state's attorney fears that an effort will be made to make this woman a burden on trie state and county and brings the action to force the husband, who is able to meet the expenses.

It had apparently been there for ten years.. "I doctored with doctors and took almost everything I could get for my stomach in the way of medicine, but if I got any better it only lasted a little while until I was almost a walking skeleton. "One day I read an ad for Postum and told my wife I would try it, and as to the following facts I will make affidavit before any judge: "I quit coffee entirely and, used Postum in, its place. I have regained my health entirely and can eat anything that is cooked to eat. I have Increased in weight until now I weigh more than I ever did; I have not taken any medicine for my stomach since I began using Postum. Why, I believe Postum will almost digest an Iron wedge.

Look In pkgs. for a copyjtf the famous little book, 'The Roil to Well- •iUe." tarlum, Alma, Mich., in t h e O c t d t a L number of "How to Live," gives s o i l * Interesting a s well as sensible rules for acquiring and keeping health. He says: "Without we eat and drink, we die! The provocative to do both rests with the appetite, which, in process of time, becomes a very uncertain guide; for the palate will often ind«M a desire and relish for t h a t which most mischievous and indlgesti The old saying of 'eat what you lifts? is now shunned by everybody of 20 years' experience. Still, without appetite, it is a very difficult affair to subsist— for the pleasure depends chiefly upon the relish. The relish may become, as has been stated, a vitiated one, but it Is quite possible to make the stomach, by a little forbearance and practice, as enamored of what if wholesome and nutritious, as of tJttt which is-fcurtfiri-and-not concoetihleA Again he says: "The delicate should feed carefully, not abundantly; it is not quantity which nourishes, but only that "which assimilates." "Be careful of your digestion" is the keynote of the doctor's a r g u m e n t He says: "Health in man, as in other animals, depends upon the proper performance of all functions. These functions may be shortly said to be three: (1) tissue change; (2) removal of waste; (3) supply of new material. For the activity of man, like the heat of the fire by which he cooks his food, is maintained by combustion; and just as the fire may be prevented from burning brightly by improper disposition of the fuel, or imperfect supply of air, and as it will certainly go out If fresh fuel is not supplied, and may be choked by its own ashes, so man's activity may be lessened by imperfect tissue change and may be put an end to by an insufficient supply of new material and imperfect removal of waste products. "We should see to it t h a t free Glimination is maintained, for the ashes must be kept out of the system in order to have good health. The skin, kidneys and bowels must do their elimlnative work properly. If the bowels occasionally become torpid, try to regulate them with exercise and proper food, such as fruits, green vegetables, salads, cereals, corn, whole wheat or graham bread, fish, poultry, light soups, etc. Plenty of water is also valuable, and a glass full of cold or hot water the first thing upon rising in the morning will aid much i n overcoming constipation. Regular habit, cold baths, and massage are very efficacious. In case the constipation does not yield to these hygienic measures, some simple, harmless laxative may be required, such as California Syrup of Figs—a non-irritating preparation of senna in fig syrup. Laxative mineral waters are beneficial in some cases, but not to be employed continually. "Above all be an optimist, keep the heart young. Cultivate kindness, eheerfulnesR and love, and do not forget that 'we shall pass through this world but once.' Any good thing, therefore, that we do, or any kindness that we show to any human being, let us do it now. Let us not defer it or neglect it, for we shall not pass this way again." •V CURIOS AND ODDITIES. Only one woman in 100 Insures life. Ellen Terry is passionately fond ot cats.

HONDURAS MEANS WAR Nicaragua On the Verge of Joining in tii» Fray. AM Hinges On Ousting ^ftataident Cabrera. \ — — Fighting For Supiemacy. A telegram received in Panama from San Salvador says that Honduras has declared war against Guatemala. The declaration of war by Honduras on Guatemala brings a third state actively into the Central American trouble, which has been progressing with more or less severe fighting and bloodshed for a month or more. . Honduras and Salvador are now arrayed against their neighbor « B the west. Nicaragua and Costa Rica are the only two countries still passive, and it has been said that the former is about to take part in the fighting. The present trouble in Central America has been brewing for a long Tlmei For the past five years the revolutionists in that country have been planning, intriguing and preparing for the overthrow of President Cabrera, and in their efforts to this end they have not failed to appeal for support to certain elements in Honduras and Salvador, working on the national jealousies for first place among the states forming Central America. President Cabrera's term of office in fact expired in 1905. He has insisted, however, on holding office. The revolutionists are said to have plenty of fighting men, arms and ammunition, and they doubtless* have invaded the frontiers of Honduras, Salvador and Mexico during the fighting ngainst Cabrera. They are headed by Gen. M. L. Barrillas, a former president of the country, who'has the. assistance of Gens. Castillo, Pined and Toledo. Guatemala is a little larger than the state of Ohio. Its population is 60 per rent pure Indian, the remainder chiefly half-cast, and a small proportion of pure European descent. The trouble between Salvador and Guatemala is an outcome of the progress of the revolutionists in their efforts to oust Cabrera. They have invaded Salvadorean territory, and Guatemala claims have received actual support from that government. While no actual declaration of war has been made between these two countries, a state of war practically exists. All Guatemalan citizens between 18 and 50 years old have been called upon to join the ranks, and martial law has been declared. The statement has been made that Salvadorean regulars are fighting, with the Guatemalan revolutionists but President Escalon of Salvador has declared that his government was observing strict neutrality and had nothing to do with the revolution in Guatemala. The revolutionists appear so far to have had the best of it. They have captured nnd held several towns, and Hs the movement progresses and succeeds their ranks are^ constantly being strengthened. LIFE IN OCEAN. Professor of Cambridge (£ng.) University Tells Some New and Interesting Facts. J. Stanley Gardiner, of Cambridge university, has been exploring the Indian ocean and gives it as his opinion that at one time there was land connection between Ceylon and Madagascar. But it 13 in describing the wonders of the deep that his report grows most interesting; "A very considerable variety of deep-sea fish was brought up," he says. "At least halt the number we secured seemed quite new specimens, and,. I believe, are not described in any textbook. Some of these had enormous eyes, some only rudimentary eyes, the size of a pin's head, while some had no eyes at all. "One of the most interesting discoveries we made was that floating life is exceedingly abundant at all depths down to about 1,200 fathoms in seas 2,500 fathoms deep. By floating life I mean animals which form the food of whales and deep-oceaa fish, and" which up to the present have been believed to live on or very close to the surface. A variety of enormous' squids was fished out as well as jelly fish and gigantic prawns fully six inches long. Some of these latter were blind, while others had huge eyes, but nearly all of them had phosphorescent organs, which would naturally be due to the fact, that they live at a depth where almost total darkness prevails. "The blind varieties had enormous feelers, or tentacles, some of them extending to twice the length of their own bodies. Some forms, such as the water flea, which is only about the size of a pin's head in surface water, we discovered six or ten times that size in COO or 700 fathoms." BAD3ER PHILOSOPHY.

Diseases of Woman's Organism Cured and Consequent Pain Stopped by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. " I t seems as though my back would break." Women utter these words over and over again, but continue to drag along and suffer with aches in the small of the back, pain low down in the side, " bearing-down'' pains, nervousness and no ambition for any task. They do not realize that the back is the mainspring of woman's organism, and quickly indicates by aching a diseased condition of the female organs or kidneys, and that the aches and pains will continue until the cause is removed. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has been for many years the cue and only effective' remedy in such cases. It speedily cures female and kidney disorders and restores the fe* male organs to a healthy condition. " I have suffered with female troubles for over two years, suffering intense pain each month, ray back ached until it seemed as though it would break, and I felt so weak all over that I did not find strength to attend to my work but had to stay in bed a large part of the first two or three days every month. I would nave sleepless nights, bad dreams and severe headaches. All this undermined my health. * 'We consulted an old family physician, who advised that I try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

May the forks of his rake, as well as its handle, hold out in strength until he has turned up the whole foul mess to the sunlight and to the public gaze.—American Farmer. We realize today, as never before, that the world is asking for results, for cold facts and figures, not for sentiment or poetic fancy; this is the age when a man's deeds are looked for more than his word8. Young man, if you would have the world look up to you in t h e future^ get a move on and do something worth while. my reason: In the gambling-room the windows are closed tight, the curtains are pulled down; everything is conducted secretly for fear of detection, and none but gamblers as a rule, enter there. While in the parlor all have access to the game, children are permitted to watcn it, young people are invited to partake in it. J:It is made attractive and alluring by giving prizes, serving refreshments and adding high social enjoyments. For my part, I never could see the difference between playing for a piece of silver molded in the shape of money or silvei molded into the shape of a cup or a thimble. The principle is the same, and whenever property changes bauds over the luck of cards, no matter how small is the value of the prize, I believe it is gambling. Perhaps you have never thought of it, but where do all the gamblers come from? They are not taught in thegamblthat God will sound through them a note of warning to card-playing Christians. A number of men weut home from that meeting and set up a new rule in the families, that never should another game he played inside their house; that their parlors should not become kinder-gardens for training young gamblers. At a mass meeting on a recent Sabbath afternoon, in the presence of over two huudred men, a converted gambler and ex-saloonkeeper made the following statement. " I have been in the, saloon business, with a gambling room attached, for the last four years, and claim to k n o w / s o m e t h i n g about what I am going to tell you. I do not believe that the gambling den is near so dangerous, nor does it do anything like the same amount of 1iarm as the social card caves of KIWMH1 ami .\uu»rii-:i wu\--n Dartyju the house.

They aim at—fntel^ lectual and material equality with white people,.while a very large class of white people in parts <.f the _country where the colored people are most numerous think t h e quiet and simple life of the farm is the very best the mass of colored people can attain in competition with white men. Time will tell about that; but whatever the colored race may end in their struggle for advancement they will be better for their effort to advance and it can make no difference what white men think either in the north or the south about the colored man's place in the scheme of things, that place is the very best place h e c a u make for himself under laws that give him a change to do his best. Try a little KODOL FOR DYSPEPSIA after your meals. See the effect it will produce on your general feeling by digesting your tood and helping yoir stomach to get itself into shape. Many stomachs are overworked to the point where tbey refuse to go further. Kodoi digests your food and gives your stomach the rest it needs, while its reconstructive properties get the stomach back into working order. Kodol relieves flatulence, soar stomach, palpitation of tbe heart, belching, etc. «oI4 by T. A.

He has learned somewhere else before he sets foot inside such a place. When he has played in the parlor, in the social game of the home, and has become proficient enough to win prizes among his friends, the next step with him is to seek out the gambling-room, for he has learned, and now counts on his efficiency to hold his own. The saloon men and gamblers chuckle and smile when they read in the papers of the parlor games given by the ladies, for they know that after a while those same inen will become the patrons of their business. 1 say, then, the parlor game is the college where gamblers are made and educated. In the name of God, men, stop this -Imsi-mt^in-your homes,- Burn up your decks and wash your hands. The other day 1 overheard two ladies talking on the 8treet.X4)ue said: 'I am going to have a eard party, and am going to the store to buy a pack of cards. Which are the best kind to get?' The other replied, 'Get the Angel Card. I t has an angel on the back.' . "Think," said he, "of dragging the pure-angels of heaven into this infernal business." After he had taken hisseat another converted ex-gambler, who led the men's meeting in the Second Presbyterian church the following Sabbath, arose and said:. "Iindorse every word which the brother before me has just uttered. I was a gambler.

Of the days when Walt Whitman was a nurse In the hospitals of the civil war a biographer of the poet says: "He would often come into the wards carrying wild flowers newly picked and •trewing them over the beds like a herald of the summer. Well did he know that they were messengers of life to the sick, words to them from the earth-mother of men. And then as he left of a night after going his last round and kissing many a young, pale, bearded face in fulfillment of his own written Injunctions he would hear the boys calling: 'Walt, Walt, Waltl Come again, come again!'

The Congregational church of Great Britan is becoming totally abstinent. Forty years ago, only about 400 of its clergy were total abstainers. At the recent meeting of the Congregational Total Abstinence Association in Loudon, reports showed that out of nearly 3,000 ministers, 2,050 were known to be total abstainers. Within the last few years, alcohol has become less and less popular as a drug in public hospitals, a^nd where used, has beeu chiefly for external applications. The theory that alcohol is useful as a tonic for woruout elderly persons is rapidly passing away. Nearly all .th© old people's homes and hospitals for the aged have abandoned the use of alcohol for this purpose. Although medical literature still contains reference to its value as a drug, its use is advised very timidly, and with so many qualifications as to leave much doubt concerning its real value.— American Medicine, Nov. 18,1905.

It is probable that most persons will prefer to go through life with a whole- Bkin In spite of the reassuring comment of a Philadelphia surgeon on a recent operation in Rochester, Minn., that "it makes little difference if a man doe3 lose a few inches of his intestines." There is plenty of scientific authority on his side, remarks the New York World. Prof. Elie Metchnikoff, of the Pasteur Institute, in Paris, even holds that civilized man would be better off if he should lose a little of his alimentary tract, which still retains, the proportions he required when in a savage state. The vermiform appendix has been found to be not only a superfluity but a source of disease. The surgeons seem to be the only class to profit by -it, yet-few persons with healthy-vermiform appendices are so unselfish as to offer to part with them. In Los Angeles surgeons report with pride that they have just taken out a man's heart, washed it, replaced it, and promise that he will recover. Numbers of men under stress of circumstances and without mortal inconvenience have parted with a lobe of the lungs or liver or brains, to the immense gratification of the surgeons, but no one does it voluntarily or purely out of a desire of self-perfection. Man is perverse enough to want to remain as he is and to put off surgical improvements as a forlorn hope. It may be that there are too many parts of him for present needs-, but the coming race will have to outgrow them as best it can or put up with them, as its ancestors did. Uniformity of American Life. The crudities of American life have been i'ruitful topics for foreign critics from the earliest colonial times, and many eminent British writers, including Dickens, have unbottled the vials Of their sarcasm at our expense. But either we have improved or men of fairer judgment are expressing opinions. Mr, Nabuco, the Brazilian minister at Washington, has returned from an extended tour of the UnLted States, and, speaking of what he saw, said to a newspaper interviewer: "I tried very hard indeed to find the 'west,' about which I had heard so much, but I came to the conclusion that it is a myth. There is no difference between the people of your various slates that I could perceive. The one thing about Americans which must impra.^s visitors more than anything eles Is the absence of any so-called lower strata in your soeiety. In this country there are no men and women of the sort always referred to' in Europe as the 'people.' Men and women here never admit that they are at the foot of the social ladder, and if1 they are there they don't look it; they appear tc be at the top. I looked In vain for some place that would look provincial. In Europe, if one stops at a small station, even on the principal lines ol travel, one may find himself in a place where every essential of refined life is wanting; but in this country, where all is change and interchange, railways, electric light, telephones, lifts and all modern improvements are everywhere. This uniformity of your life from sea to sea is amazing," — - ~ ANOTHER FAT YEAR COMES TO THE FARMER. A Chicago school of domestic science has recently turned out a group of sweet girl graduates whose diplomas certify that they are able to keep a house on ten dollars a week. While this movement may not settle the household problem, remarks the Minneapolis Journal, it is gratifying that tt U being considered and that there are yfeung women who are making the effort to restore the art of housekeeping in this country. Ten dollars a week may not be the right figure but it seems a safe starting point. No man who cannot earn ten dollars a week has much of a license to marry. And the man who can earn that amount is entitled to know in advance that if he does marry he is not toeing run up against a $20 wife. ,***l° ,«*>*"* ,0^' eWCABO A - ^ y ' " " ^ A V . ^ su*^ •fttfA^t**- SEVEN CHILDREN DROWNED IN EFFORT TO SAVE EACH OTHER SAD ACCIDENT OCCURS AT PICNIC ON RIVER BANK AT CEDAR , RAPIDS. IA.—YIELDING SAND IS FATAL. Cedar Rapids, la.—Eight children at a picnic on the river bank, only three blocks from home, went wading. The smallest one slipped into a deep hole in the river and in trying to rescue her six others were drowned. The dead: Lucille Sweeting. 7; Hazel Sweeting, 14; Gladys Sweting, 10; Josie Sweting, 12; Ruth Coyle. 11, Sioux City; Core Coyle, 9, Sioux City; Clara Usher, 16. Ruth Klersey, the only survivor, said they were wading when little Lucille Sweeting slipped off a shelf in the river bottom into a hole. Then the next girl rushed after her. And so they kept trying to save each other until all of , the girls except Ruth Klersey had been drowned. This was the end of a picnic, the tragedy of a last forbidden frolic. The Sweeting children lived with their father near Ellis park, on the outskirts of this city. Clara Usher was a daughter of Sweeting's housekeeper, and the Coyle children were her nieces, who were here on a visit. Story by Survivor. Ruth Klersey, the only survivor, ,said they wer,e wading when little Lucille Sweeting slipped off a shelf in the river bottom into a hole. Then the next girl rushed after her. And so they kept trying to save each other until all of the girls except Ruth Klersey had been drowned. Four of the bodies were quickly removed from the water, but it was too late to . rescuscitate them. At four o'clock all of the bodies had been recovered except that of Clara Usher. They were taken home and laid in a row amid the sobbing of hundreds of men and women. The—children had gene—to-the—riverwith Mrs. Usher, who took her baby. The baby fretted and Mrs. Usher went home with it. Sand Proves Treacherous. The children immediately went wading in the river. Ruth Klersey went to the end of a long sand bar and, seeing that the water was deep at the end of the bar, warned the other children. Lucille Sweeting, however, ran to the end-of the bar and, the sand yielding, slipped off into seven feet of water. Her cries brought Hazel Sweeting to her aid. In trying to pull Lucille back on the sand bar she, too, fell into the deep water. Another child went to her as sistance and slipped in, end so on until seven of the eight were in deep water. Some drowned helplessly, while three vainly tried to climb the sand bar out of deep water. Ruth Klersey, seeing the fate of her companions, then ran down the road crying to Mrs. Usher, overtaking her when almost home." Mrs. Usher left her baby in the road and ran back to aid the children . She managed to get hold of the hair of two of them and pulled them out of the water, but it was too late to save their lives. DUEL OVER DREYFUS (JNDER SECRETARY OF STATE IS BADLY WOUNDED. STORMY SCENE IN CHAMBER Restoration to Army of Former Captain And Picquart Compels Suspension of Sessioji While Deputies Wrangle. children of them two or back on Dynamite Kills Laborers. Chicago.—Three men were instantlj killed and a score of others were in^ jured, several of whom are expected to die, shortly after one a. m. Friday, when a shanty at the O'Laughlin Bros, stone quarry, near Bellwood, was blown up with dynamite. The explosion was the result of a deliberate attempt to kill the occupants of the shed: laborers employed in ihe quarry, according to employes of the concern. Strike Breaker Fined. St. Louis. — Frank Curry, a notert strike breaker, known throughout the United States among labor men, was fined $50 in police court for abusing his wife and.|10 for ence of a neighbor. TRAIN WRECKED BY SPIKE Miscreants Cause Men to Lose Lives in Order to Be Avenged on Railroad. ; Mr. and Mrs. U. S. Grant are a couple of Sac and Fox Indians residing on the reservation in Oklahoma. Recently they visited some relatives in Iowa, and while there some reporters tried to interview Mr. Grant He was asked: "How do you think the Indians of the territory will be affected by the new state of Oklahoma?" "We like him," was his answer. Further Mr. Grant,, wouldn't talk. It wai noticed that the wife of his bosom would be a good subject for a corset demonstration. Her conversational «ow«r* were extremely Halted. Petersburg, Ind.—The wreck of a west-bound freight train on the Southern railroad eight miles west of here resulted in the loss of three lives. The west end of the switch was spiked, so as to get either the east or west bound train. The freight was making 30 miles an hour when the engine ran into a spiked switch and topped enrer. The entire train left the track, demolishing many cars and totally wrecking the engine. The only known motive for the work of the wrecKers is ill feeling against the railroad by certain persons because the railroad company, wtiich owns the Muren mines, insisted on running their mines during the recent trouble between the operators and miners, but paid the scale price during the entire time. MUST EARN RIGHT TO LABEL Paris.—The scene of tumultous dis- Drder which marked the enactment Friday of the law restoring Alfred Dreyfus to the arsay, was followed by a bloody duel at night, in which Under Secretary of State Sarraut was dangerously wounded by the sword of M. Puglieei-Conti. The duel assumed the aspect of a veritable combat between the government and the opposition, as M. Sarraut's seconds were Ministers Clemenceau and Thomson, while M. Pugliesi-Conti's attendants were M. Millevoye andGen. Jacquet, who were drawn from the elements which bitterly resist the government's rehabitation of Dreyfus. The meeting followed a fight on the floor of the chamber of deputies, in which M. Sarraut sprang from beside Minister of the Interioh Clemenceau, sitting on the ministerial benches, on M. Pugliesi-Conti, who had been heaping Renunciation on the members of the government as scoundrels. Sarraut struck Pugeliesi-Conti a stunning blow in the face. A scene of the wildest uproar ensued, compelling the suspension of the session. It was after the close of the session that the duel occurred. Late reports show that M. Sarraut is suffering from a deep wound In the right breast, penetrating the lung. While the wound is considered to be serious, it is not necessarily dangerous. Despite this sanguinary conflict laws were finally enacted by the chamber of deputies reinstating Dreyfus, who obfains the rank of a chief of squadron jf artillery, and Picquart, who is made a brigadier general. Paris.—The supreme court Thursday announced its decision annulling the condemnation of Capt. Dreyfus without a retrial. This is a complete vindication of Dreyfus, entitling him [o restoration to his rank in the army as though ho had.never been accused. The scene as the decision was •pronounced was impressive. The court, consisting of 49 judges, gowned in lowing red robes, solemnly mounted '.ho bench. Deep silence prevailed is the presiding jurist read the long iecislon, minutely reviewing the series of sensational events of the last !2 years and completely exonerating Dreyfus of any wrongdoing, freeing iiim of the incriminating documents, ,rn which the entire charge was found- ?d. and ordering the annulment of the judgment of the Rennes court-martial with the publication of the final announcement of his innocence in 50 newspapers, to be chosen by Capt. Dreyfus. WISCON^Ir^^RSHAL SLAIN Italian Laborers Attack Officer and Assistant Serving Warrants for Violation of Game Laws. MURDER COMPACT ADMITTED WIDOW OP "HOLT? BOLLEB" LEADER LS ARRESTED. , , - r - . • Girl Tells How They Planned to Clay- La tter's Brother for Killing Fanatic • • • * • Seattle, Wash— Immediately after the arrest of Esther Mitchell, the 17-year-old girl who killed her brother, orders were given for the arrest of Mrs. Maude Creffield, widow of the prophet, whose death at thehands of George Mitchell led to the latest tragedy. Mrs. Creffield, however, telephoned the police where she was to be found. When taken to the station sheVadmittcd she had entered into a compact with Esther to kill the slayer of her husband. She will be held as an accomplice. George Mitchell a few days agokilled F. E. Creffield, leader of the Holy Rollers, because, as Mitchell claimed, Creffield had wronged bissister Esther. The tragedy took place in the Union depot in this city, where the Mitchell girl and her three brothers were waiting for a train on which the brothers intended to depart for Oregon. After her arrest Esther Mitchell made the following statement: "Mrs. Creffield and I talked over the matter of killing George. The one that had the best chance was to do it- Mrs. Creffield bought the gun. I thought I would have a better chance to do it than Mrs. Creffield, as my brother wanted to see me, and believed that he would think nothing about my going to the depot. Then. Mrs. Creffield gave me the gun and I was to do it. We agreed that it must be done as soon as possible. "My brother Fred was up to my room and said Perry and George were going to'Portland. I went to the depot and saw Perry get his ticket. At last I saw George and I shook hands with him." He and Perry were walking In front and Fred and I were walking behind. I was Walking to the door and George was in front of me. That was the chance I wanted and I shot "him. My brother Fred grabbed me and I sat down on his lap and put my arms, about his heck. I sat there and the officer came. I intended to follow him to Portland if I did not get a chance here. I am not sorry I did the shooting; I am glad of it."

Chicago.—Secretary James Wilson of the department of agriculture concluded his work in Chicago Wednes day by issuing a statement in which he denied the Chicago meat packers the use of the United States government inspection label as a guarantee to the world of the fitness of their products as food, until they have made perfect the sanitary conditions in the buildings where food is prepared. He then took a train for the west, where he will continue to look into the packing Industry. This move by the government is looked upon as a drastic action tc force the packers to pursue with vigor the work of renovating their plants. Announcement la made in the same declaration that the inspection under the new law will begin at once in plants where sanitary conditions justify it, and the government label may be used by the owners of such plants. Chicago establishments are mentioned specifically and are said to be on the way to improvement The secretary says he considers that they will be ready for inspection by An* gust 1, but that it they are not they will not get the inspection even- then of the Wisconsin game .laws.

He was playing billiards with a friend, when he said to th*e friend, ''Let's go and hear those men from America. The next evening he came to Albert hall and told me what he had done. 1 tkid, "Stand up here and. tell_ these 10,- #00 people about i t " And the celebrated, entertainer who was so well known all over England got up on the platform and told how he had accepted Christ. He went down to the manager of the concert hall, where he was to take part in an entertainment the next night, and said, "I cannot keep my engagement with you. I cannot take my part ou the programme. I have been up to the Royal Albert hall and accepted Christ." The manager said, "All right, but you must go out on the stage and tell the people." "I will do that," he replied. When it came to his number on the programme Mr. Quentyn Ashlyn stepped out on the platform and said: "Friends, I cannot give you my usual entertainment this evening. I have been converted in the Torrey-Alexahder mission at the Royal Albert hall.' They commenced to laugh and applaud —they thought it was part of a joke. When they had quieted down he eaid, "It is no joke; I have accepted Christ as my saviour, and I cannot waste my life in merely making people laugh." And at_least one person was converted right then and there. Then the manager of the hall said to him, "Mr. Ashlyn, you may have this place every night for a week to preach in if you want it," and for a week that concert house was turned into a gospel meeting, and for a week in the heart of fashionable London, in Langham place, the converted entertainer preached the gospel, and a good many were, converted. And he has kept at preaching the gospel till this day. ERA OF 810 THINGS. Skill and Talent Command Greater Reward* Than Ever i n World's History. In these days the surgeon who Is master of his science receives fees which would hava startled the surgeons and the public 50 years ago. A fee of $10,000 is not uncommon for an operation which can be performed in comparatively little time. Of course, $10,000 is not the maximum fee. There are cases, it is stated, in which as much as $25,000 has been paid. When life is hanging by a thread the question of fees is immaterial. The average man will give all that he has, if required, to get a new lease of life through the surgeon's skill. A famous throat specialist was once summoned- from London to treat the father of the present kaiser. He remained only a few days after making a diagnosis. He rendered no bill, but it is said the German government gave him a fee which represents half a year's earnings of the specialist, who had a very large income from his profession. Even the literary man receives large fees for his work. Mr. John Morley, it has been stated, was paid $50,000 to write the "Life of Gladstcjie." Certainly, great skill and talent never commanded greater rewards than they do now. It is an era of big things. CARRY SMALLER BIRDS.

Membership .of Different Denominations— Effort for Federation Fails. Capt J. W. Hogun, former postmaster of Indianola, now living at Austin, Texas, writes: "I was afflicted for years with pains across the loins and in the hips and shoulders. I had headache also a n d neuralgia. My r i g h t e y e , from pain, was of little use to me for years. The constant flow or urine kept my system depleted, causing nervous chills and night sweats. After trying seven different climates and using all kinds of medicines, I had the good fortune to hear of Doan's Kidney Pills. This remedy has cured me. I am a-s well today as I was twenty years ago, and my eyesight is perfect." Sold by all dealers. 50 cents a box. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. At a late meting of the Episcopal general synod of Ireland the following figures were given as to the several churches in the Emerald isle. The Roman Catholics number 3,308,661, or 12 per cent, of the population. The Episcopal church of Ireland has 581,089 communicants; the Presbyterian, 443,- 276, and the Methodists, 62,006. Among those with a minor number of adherents one finds the Congregationalists, having 10,142 members, the Unitarians with £,094 and the Baptists 7,062. Altogether, It is claimed that there are more denominations and sects in Ireland, twice Qyer, than in the whole United States. The Presbyterians are strongest in County Antrim, Belfast -anrehCfrtmty Down,-In-aH-other sections— the Catholics far outnumber them. Some members of jthe general synod expressed a desire to cooperate with other Protestant bodies in the sphere of education, temperauce reform and social betterment. But several prelates, notably the Episcopal bishop of Derry, and Canon Hemphill, deprecated any attempt to put their own church even In correspondence with "other religious bodies." The cause of federation, iost nothing by the discussion, even if It seemed to make but little progress, the original resolution for "brotherly conference" having been softened to merely appointing a committee to see "what other Christian communities would be willing to enter into such cooperation." WISDOM'S WHISPERS. Force of circumstances is a poor excuse for the taking Of a wrong path. The bearer of unpleasant tidings rarely appreciates how hard he strikes. Hold fast to a truth without regard to what others may think of you. The value of wealth cannot be estimated by those who do not possess it. It does ond no harm to call attention U) the good that may De seer, in others. An assumption of humility doe3 not always carry with it the appearance of honesty. Because others may overestimate your value is no reason for your doing likewise. Jumping, at conclusions without facts shows a ready mind, if not a well-balanced one.

The ravages of time come creeping along DO matter how effectively they may be concealed. - B ¥ - S H S - W A 3 ^ — V Art of Smiling. Why do we not always smile when we meet a fellow being?

DODDVKIDNEY % PILLS KIDNEVJ •AQCTES_ It was an opinion held by many In ancient times that small birds in migrating were often carried on the backs of the larger. In Egypt, JOT example, it was held that wagtails were thus carried by storks. And many years ago a Swedish naturalist, Hedenborg, made some remarkable observations on the subject. During the arrival of the flights of storks at Rhodes from oversea, Hedenborg frequently heard the voices of singing birds without being able to see them. At last, after careful observation, when a flight of storks had just alighted, he sawjthat they had small birds perched on ) their backs. The writer of a recent book, "Recreations of a Naturalist," Mr. J. E. Harting, has some interesting remarks on this subject. Most ornithologists probably regard the idea as a myth, but Mr. Harting's remarks seem to admit a possibility that there may be some truth in it, Learned Something.

Years ago, while Reverend Shandaloupe was a student at the seminary, he undertook, one vacation season, to sell fire extinguishers. His pleasing address and affability enabled him to make many sales. Howevej, he. encountered the usual rebuffs, which -are the experience of all agents. The theological student had gained access to the office of a surly broker, and forthwith began expatiating on the deluging powers of his incomparable fire extinguisher. "To hell with it!" roared the broker, fiendishly. "Oh, my dear man," expostulated Shandaloupe, "this extinguisher doe3 not deserve the extreme virtue with which you credit it."—Harper's Weekly..

If a mother with a little babe, crying for a drink, asks where tbe drinking water is, she is politely told to go to the house on tbe hill, where there is a good well.

A Baffling Case. Because of the several child marriages In Genesee county recently, and because the last couple to seek a license from him appeared to be younger than the law allows, County Clerk Blackney became suspicious, and has unraveled a case that is baffling- Prosecuting Attorney Martin and the other county officials. - E l t LaPoint, aged 2i years, appllertto the clerk for a license to wed Miss Sarah Bliss, whose age was given in her mother's written consent as 17 years. Blackney became suspicious because of the youthful appearance of the brid-elect and reported the case to the prosecutor. An investigation has revealed a strange condition. The bride is only 14 years old. She is content to live with LaPolnt, while her mother is also willing, regardless of the girl's tender years. Mrs. Bliss stated to the prosecutor that she could not read nor write, but she supposed the affidavit was correct when it was presented to her to sign. The age of the girl in the consent paper was given as 17 years. The prosecutor does not know whether to take LaPoint into the toils for falsely representing the girl's age or to allow her to live with her husband, that her interests may be cared for. During the past few weeks there have been several marriages in this county where the consent of the parents had to be secured. It is now believed that several of them were of the same order as the one. investigated yesterday, and arrests for perjury and falsely swearing may result. LaPoint in his affidavit alleges he was born at Pleasant Creek, Mich., and was a former resident of Detroit. His young"wife has always been a resident of Flint township, Genesee county. McMillan Town Has a Large SJxe Sensation. . . I £ n o { l t b j t bast known citizens of Mtfslftiof a small place nine miles west of Newberry, have been arrested on a charge of setting-fire to a number of buildings last June. They are: Henry Marks, saloonkeeper; W. S. Locke, township clerk; Justice Wm. Michaels, blacksmith; George Felcher, Mr. Marks' bartender; Wesley Allan, Culbert Marks, brother of Henry; George Dunlap, Jack Rutledge and James Taylor. Henry Marks ran a disreputable resort, it is alleged, and last winter it was burned to the ground. Ever since he has sworn vengeance. Detectives have been four weeks working on the case. They say that several have already confessed their share in the affair. Ever since Marks' place burned down last winter he had been threatening vengeance on those who caused his loss. The detectives have done their worK very cleverly. Detective Warner was first on the ground and represented H i m s e l f a s the advance—agent-of—a band of colonists who wanted to settle near McMillan, and through this gained the confidence of Henry Marks. Detective Flshlay posed as Warner's friend, who was "selling moonshine whisky," and Marks was glad to buy two barrels at $1 a gallon. So thor oughly did Fishlay gain Marks' conft dence that one day Marks asked him if he knew of anything better than paris green to kill hogs, Marks having tried it on some of the hogs owned by the Danaher Hardwood Lumber Co. Dan McDonald is superintendent of the company and was opposed to the ranch owned by Marks. CZAR DISSOLVES A RUTHLESS DEFIANCE OF T H E PEOPLE CAME W I T H O U T W A R N I N G .

Just at that time I read about the Cuticura Remedies. Once every •week I shampooed my hair with the Cuticura Soap, and I used the Ointment twice a week. In two months' time my hair was long enough to do up in French twist. That is now five years ago, and I have a lovely head of hair. The length is six inches below my waist line, my scalp -Is in very good condition, and no more dandruff or itching of the scalp. I used other remedies that were recommended to me as good, but with no results. Mrs. W. F. Griess, Clay Center, Neb., Oct 23, 1905." The Newspaper Maker.

John Bailey, of the township of Decatur," shot and severely wounded Asa Wood, and later in the day attempted to kill himself. Bailey lives on a farm near Decatur and about six miles from Paw Paw. The victim was his hired man. Trouble started in some way and Bailey ordered Wood to leave. The latter refused, whereupon Bailey pulled his revolver and fired three shots. One missed entirely, one just grazed Wood's arm and a third shot took effect In the right side, penetrating the lung. The wound is dangerous and may result in death. About 5 o'clock in the afternoon, when the officers went to arrest Bailey, he attempted to kill, himself by shooting himself in the throat, the ball coming out beneath his eye and alongside of his nose. The injury is severe, but not necessarily fatal Bailey was lodged in the county jail at Paw Paw, where he will be detained, awaiting the outcome of his crime. Senator Burrows. Private advices from Washington say that Senator Burrows has not been in good health for some time past, and that he is suffering from heart trouble. It is stated that during the last few weeks of the session he suffered from four or five attacks, all more or less alarming, and that he repaired to Atlantic City for a thorough rest immediately after the adjournment of congress. A Washington man tells a Detroit friend that Senator Burrows' friends have advised him to forego all excitement or routine work for a time. Rumors with regard to* Senator Burrows' health have been persistently prevalent in political circles for some weeks. School Board Row. At the annual school meeting recently held in Evart, Mrs. Charles A. Smith was elected trustee for the ensuing term.

If the case is not settled soon it is probable quo warranto proceedings will be brought by the opposition. If Mrs. Smith is ousted, it is thought that other members of the board will be disqualified. Mrs. Smith is the wife of Mayor diaries A. Smith. Lad Who Wanders. A lad giving his name as John Henry, aged 14, and his home as Saginaw, has been heard from at Arkdale, Wis., where he is temporarily sojourning. He says he Is on a tramp with the Canadian northwest as his destination, with Intent to- take up land and "live on game and hazel nuts." Information regarding him was received by Postmaster Linton. The lad says he left Saginaw May 10; that he has no home; never knew Bin father, and that his mother died two years ago. The boy's intelligence and education appealed to those among whom he is at present stopping and led to the attempt to locate his relatives. It Is surmised that he has run away from home and is traveling under an assumed name. Harry Brelning, the Michigan Central brakeman, who was injured at Grass Lake, died at the University hospital, Ann Arbor. His home was in Willis, Washtenaw county. Township Row, The attention of Gov. Warner has been called to conditions which are causing trouble in the village of Koehler, township of Koehler, in Cheboygan county. H. L. Koehler, formerly of Detroit, has been trying to bring affairs in that district- to a crisis. "One complaint is that members of the township board voted themselves $2 a day when they are entitled to only $1.50," said Mr, Koehler, "and they hold fifteen or twenty meetings in one year, when the custom has been to hold only four. There is another row over the bonds of a man who wants to open a saloon. One saloonman now has a monopoly." Profitable Obedience. By obeying the dying behest of her late husband. A. R. Gaylord, of Saginaw, the widow has made 1,900 per cent on an investment made by him just before his death. He put $20,000 into lumber lands near Lake St. Charles, La., and told her to hold on to them as they would be valuable in time. The widow became the wife of N. B. Bradley, of Bay City, and he, be: ing a lumberman, knew the value of the property. A week a^o she sold out for $400,000. Lying untouched, the property increased in value over 50 per cent a year. Fired by Lightning. During a storm in Plainwell lightning played a strange freak. Striking through the chimney, down a whip that was standing in the attic, through the floor and down the barrel of a shotgun which was standing in the corner of the kitchen. The gun was loaded and exploded, puncturing the ceiling with shot. The stock of the gun was blown to pieces, but little damage to the house was done. P. M. Won't Take Freight. The Pere Marquette Railway Company announced Wednesday night that it had abandoned the fruit train running from Fennville to St. Joseph to make connections with the Graham & Morton steamers. Thousands of cases of fruit were left at the railway station to spoil. This means a renewed fight between the railway and steamer lines and loss to lnnooent fruit raisers. Pierced by a Fork. While unloading hay near Whitney Samuel Hawkley, farmer, was struck by one of the prongs of a heavy hay fork, which passed completely through his body. The fork entered the body immediately above the right breast. He was brought, to Escanaba. It is believed he cannot recover. MICHIGAN IN BRIEF. At the funeral of Mrs. A.

William _ McCormick was sent to Ionia prison for from one to Ave years for stealing a hatchet from the county, The Czar is Reckless. Russia's first experiment in parliamentary government came to an ignominious end Saturday night with the promulgation of two imperial ukases, the first dissolving the present parliament and providing for the convocation of its successor on March 5, 1907, more than six months hence, and the second i>roclaimiag-the capital of Russia and the surrounding provinces to be in a state of extraordinary security, which is only inflnitesimally different from full martial law. This measure of safety is to provide for the outbursts which will undoubtedly be provoked by this daring measure. It Is now but a step to dictatorship. The texts of the two ukases, both of which are addressed in the stereotyped form to the ruling senate, are as follows: "According to paragraph 105 of the fundamental law, we order the imperial parliament dissolved and fix the time for the convocation of the newly elected parliament for March 5, 1907. "Regarding the time for the new elections to the imperial parliament, we will later issue special Indications. ' "The ruling senate will not fail to take proper measures to place this into effect. "In consideration of a report of the council of ministers presented to us regarding the necessity in the future for the preservation of order and public safety in the city and province of St. Petersburg, we consider it necessary to declare in the above city and province, Instead of the state of reinforced security which now prevails there, a state of extraordinary security. The prefect of the city and the governnor of the province are intrusted withHhe rights thereto appertaining. "The ruling senate will not fail to take proper measures to place this into effect." With these momentous orders promulgated at 3 o'clock Sunday morning, Emperor Nicholas, by a stroke of the pen, set Russia back to where she stood two years ago, In the full grip of autocracy and irresponsible government, wiping out for six months at least the whole structure of parliament, erected at such cost. The delay In fixing the time for the neV elections seems to indicate a decision to change the present basis of suffrage to perhaps a basis of universal suffrage, with which the advisers of the emperor hope to swamp -the educated liberals, the socialists and the workmen, with the vast mass of the peasantry. The only uncertainty is the coming storm—when and where it will break. The advocates of the "mailed fist" believe that by dissolving parliament and provoking a collision now they will find the revolutionary leaders not prepared for an uprising, as at Moscow, whereas further delay would merely give the revolutionists the time needed to organize and to continue corruption of the army. The constitutional democratic caucus adjourned before the news "of the dissolution of parliament was received. A meeting was summoned for Sunday to discuss procedure and whether they shall attempt, like the French m Mrs. Mary i r a g B 0 * c * £ 3 6 7 Ave., Bridgeport, Corfh.fsays: " l 4 f p r so weakened and generally run e m m witfc*KMney disease that for a long time I could not do my work i a n d w a s five weeks In bed.

Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. •¥+- Shelter Tents. There is a probability of the Australian military authorities encouraging the manufacture or Importation of shelter tents, as used fn Japan during the late war. The tent consists of a waterproof sheet with hooks and eyelets, the weight being trifling. Each Japanese soldier carries one of these sheets In his kit, and any number of them can be laced together, the custom being for four men to form a bivouac. Anns are piled hi the usual way, and the sheets are spread over the pile weapons, affording shelter from both heat and rain. They can be utilized in many ways for sheltering the soldiers. a revolutionary body in defiance of the sovereign's will. The Ice Trust. That a national ice trust exists, with headquarters in New York and branches in practically every large The Virtue of Abbreviation. A writer in the Evening Standard, complaining of the London habit of abbreviation, says he would like to> hang the "fiend who christened the Baker street and Waterloo railway the 'Bakerloo Tube.'" We think he should canonize him. This column speaks with a certain anxiety—for it at least gave currency to both those abbreviations. On the opening day of the Shepherd's Bush and Mansion House Hue a forgotten omnfbns driver fired the gibe, "It ain't nothing but a twopenny tube," at the people who turned from his omnibus and took to the bowels of the earth. The officials who could build a railway could not name it. The driver's gibe fixed the word. In the same way the London public, though quite ready to travel by the Baker street and Waterloo railway, wanted to save its breath, and for the economy of hurried speech the suggestion was here made—Bakerloo. The two words have been taken to the heart of travelers, and received official sanction; for at Trafalgar square you are directed to the "Bakerloo Tube." The phrase is swift, convenient, as a matter of speech, and has just as much relation to literary language as a bill of lading.— London Chronicle. BACK TO PULPIT. What Food Did fox a Clergyman.

Japan is at present its only roreign field, but arrangements are being made to send four missionaries to China very soon. The board has sent 26 missionaries to Japan and the Woman's society perhaps half as many, and the entire force in Japan at present must number nearly 50, including pastors, evangelists, teachers and Bible women. The revival spirit pervades the churches. The mission workers are said to be greatly encouraged and the only real discouragement is the lack of men and means to improve opportunities. The Methodist Protestants in common with other Methodists in Japan, it Is said, are very desirous oi a union of all the Methodisms there upon a basis adopted unaimously there . and submitted for consideration by the mission authorities of the home churches. Two meetings of the joint commissioners appointed by the Methodist churches in the United States and Canada have been held recently; but disagreement on the policy has thus far prevented the adoption of the basis —of union, - — — ~~ GAILEY'S WORK IN CHINA. What Consecrated College Man Has Accomplished Among Young Hen at Tientsin. Mr. Robert Galley, who was known during the '90s as a champion foot ball player in Princeton, has* for the past seven years been in charge ol the Young Men's Christian association rooms at Tientsin, China, where .the organization occupies what was formerly a mandarin's palace containing 100 apartments. Some of these rooms have been fitted up with scientific apparatus, and the Princeton secretary gives lectures upon electricity, astronomy and, by the aid of a very large globe, upon geography. He has convinced the intelligent young men of Tientsin that an eclipse is not caused by a great dog attempting to eat up the moon; that electricity can be produced without an appeal to the thunder god, and that China Is not the oaly country on the globe. Mr. Gailey is seeking a larger endowment for his work and will doubtless get it, since it Is through such agencies the Isolation of the Celestial empire must be finally overcome. The Y. M. C. A. reaches a class older than that reached by the missionary schools, but a class not as yet too old to be reached at all. At Tientsin 94 per cent, of the cost of the association support is met by the non-Christian p^uTatloh, wh~b have come to appreciate the worth of such an institution. Yellowstone Park.

The Things We Eat. Too much meat is absolutely hurtful to the body. Sailors on board of ships get scurvy when their supply of vegetable food is exhausted. The digestive organs of the human body demand vegetable food, and if we don't eat enough vegetables we pay for it dearly. Nature gave us wheat, and in every kernel of wheat nature has distributed iron, starch, phosphorus, lime, sugar, salt and other elements necessary to make bone, blood and muscle. EGG-O-SEE is wheat scientifically prepared. Cooked, and made into crisp flakes, EGG-O-SEE goes into the stomach ready for the digestive organs to convert it into life-giving substances with but little effort. EGG-O-SEE eaters are a clean-eyed, strong and happy lot. The proof of a pudding and the proof of EGG-O-SEE is in the eating. EGG-O-SEE besides being* solid nourishment is most palatable. Every mouthful is a joy to the taste and direct benefit to your health. A 10-cent package of EGG-OSEE contains ten liberal breakfasts. Our friends advertise us. They eat EGG-O-SEE for a while. They grow Hrong. They are well and happy and thev pass the good word along. Next time jrou send to the grocer's tell your boy or girl to bring home a lacfcage of EGG-O-SEE. Have your ?UiJaren eat EGG-O-SEE. It is iheir friend. They'll eat EGG-O-SEE whtn nothing else wili taste*good. You try EGG-O-SEE and you can deduct the cost from your doctor's bilis.

HOLY RIVALRY IN GIVING^ What the Converted Natives of the New Hebrides Are Doing for the Spread of Gospel. The heathen of the New Hebrides love plunder, and delight in fighting with neighboring tribes. But the Gospel works a great transformation.

As the plants which are combined with the figs in - the manufacture of Syrup of Figs are known to physicians to act most beneficially upon the system, the remedy has met with their general approval as a family laxative, a fact well worth considering in making purchases. It is because of the fact that S Y R U P O F F I G S is a remedy of known quality and excellence, and approved by physicians that has led to its use by so many millions of well informed people, who would not use any remedy of uncertain quality or inferior reputation. Every family should have a bottle of the genuine on hand at all times, to use when a laxative remedy is required. Please to remember that the genuine Syrup of Figs is for sale in bottles of one size .only, by all reputable druggists, and that full name of the company—California Fig Syrup Co., is plainly printed on the front of every package.

Exceptionally Low Rates to Brighter Possibilities The Southwest is the land of possibilities. The opportunities for men of average means are brighter here than elsewhere— you can get more for your labor or your investment. The opportune time is now while the land is cheap. The country is settling up. If you purchase land now you will scon see grow up around you a community of prosperous energetic men who like yourself lia.ve seen_the brighter possibilities of the Southwest, and have taken advantage of them. Aloiifr the line of the Missouri, Kansas & Texas R'y in Indian Territory, Oklahoma, and Texas are vast areas of unimproved land—land not now yielding the crops of which it is capable. The same thing, in a different way, is true of the towns. Few lines of business are adequately represented. There are openings of all sorts for you. If you're in anyway interested in the Southwest, I'd like to send you a copy of my free paper, " The Coming Country." August 7th and 21st you- can make a trip Southwest exceptionally cheap. Round trip tickets, good thirty—30— days, will be sold by all lines in connection with the M. K. & T.

We glean the following from the Michigau Experimental Station Bulletin:— Hundreds of dollars are lost each year in Michigau by the blightiug and rotting of potatoes. Although its distinctiveness is increased by wet, muggy weather, the disease is really caused by a fungus, and the loss can be largely if not entirely prevented by thoroughly spraying the vines with blue v.itroil and lime, commonly call Bordeaux mixture. It, seldom attacks early varieties that ripen before August 1, but if they ure injured by beetles it will often pay to spray them with Bordeaux mixture and Paris green, which will also control another fungus known as "early blight." The most injurious form which is called "early blight," seldom appears until August, although if the weather is hot and muggy during the latter part of July it will be safest to make an application at once and before the blight appears if possible. As a rule, it will answer if the first application is made by August 1st, and others should be made at intervals of ten or fifteen days, so long as the weather remains favorable for blight, although once in fifteen days will ordinarly answer.^ It will be well to continue the appli- 4 4 Edited by the Pinckuey \V 15 rwvwrwr W.

The session of the next world's W 0 T U convention at Boston, Mass.; Oct. 17-23 will be held in Tremont Temple, President Cannon, of the Virginia* Auti-Saloon League, in his 1906 report announces that, leaving out the cities and environs, there are only 24 saloons "in all the districts of the state. The temperance people have achieved a great and sweeping victory in large part in Oregon during the recent June elections. Over 300 saloons have been closed by the result in various counties. The local optiou prohibition amendment, which carried before by only 3,0DO majority and which w-is attacked by the liquor people with weakening changes voted on at the recent election, is now affirmed by 10,000 majority. The counties already dry are reinforced by eight additional counties voting out their saloons by local optiou., Gov. Beckham of Kentucky has broken with democratic traditions in the Blue Grass state, and is talking Sunday closing law as strenuously as Gov. Polk of Missouri. Editor Morrison of the Pentecostel Herald declares that ihe governor's, presence in Louisville, June 3, which-resulted in the enforcement of the law on that day, despite the attempt of liquor men to nullify the statement, "saved the wives and children of the people 120,000 by the closing of the saloons. Louisville has not experienced such a day of quietness aud sobriety in many years.

Five hundred window boxes, of proper size, to fit the average tenement house window, are being manufactured in New York this year. Squlpped with the required screws ind wires and filled with plants sturdy enough to grow even without much encouragement, these boxes a r e ;o be distributed among the denizens jf the city's crowded tenements. This charming enterprise is conduct-J pltng for them picked up a piece of THE MICHIGAN. Fishing for the Vessel Sun* Thirty Years Ago. Like hunting for a needle In a hay stack is the search in 150 feet of water off Holland harbor for the fine steamer Michigan, which was sunk nearly 30 years ago. The Job is under the direction of the Crosby Transportation Co. of Muskegon. The steamer cost $250,000, is an iron boat and was handsomely furnished throughout. It was sunk as the result of an ice jam, the crew^ escaping after a perilous trip. Until a few weeks ago no one had given the long sunk boat a thoifght. Then a Holland fisherman happened to foul his nets on the bottom of Lake Michigan, and in grap sd by the Flower Guild. Guild visiters, calling wherever boxes have been given, explain how flowers should be ;ended. Facts related by some of last fear's visitors speak more convincingly than mere statistics can of the barrenness of many lives. One woman who received a box was afraid to wa- •er it lest, the water injure the flow- in a diving bell. The job is hazardous, *rs and spoil the box. Other recipients were reluctant to pick off faded, /ellow leaves. "How do I know," asked one, "that these, being of such i color! are not really flowers?" One poor soul, relates the Youth's Companion, hesitated about taking a box, fearing that if the flowers should die she might die, too. Reluctantly accepting one, she was one day filled with terror to find that neighbors, living above, had been throwing their coffee grounds on the plants. But brotherly love, it appears, exists even In the tenements. Her neighbors promptly stopped their practice when they were told that it might causae the woman's death. The boxes distributed last year were fully appreciated. In several cases it was the man of the family who cared for the flowers. One man was inspired to add a soap box In a second window, and plant peas. The flowers were used by many to deck graves of loved ones. One poor woman carried her heavy box to her child's. grave. Prizes are awarded for the boxes that show the best care. Last year the three prizes awarded went to a little colored girl, to a confirmed invalid, and to a small Italian cripple. What "one who dwelleth by the castled Rhine," in his "language quaint and olden," called "stars, that in earth's firmament do shine," are not, it seems, mere pleasant com« monplaces in all lives. the upper works or cabin of the Mich igan. Now two tugs, the Trio of Muskegon and the Crouse of Grand Haven are at the scene, and Charles F. Glew, an expert on deep-seat marine matters, is supervising the work. The boat is believed to be too far down for divers, so the only hope is to catch the chains with lines and then send a diver down and mariners are watching the work with interest. Once the divers get a line on the boat one of the two Crosby steamers now running into Muskegon will pull the boat into shallow water, the hatches will be closed and the hole In her side battened up ready for pumping out. The Michigan was an exact counterpart of the Wisconsin, now the Naomi, and both steamers were then owned by the Detroit, Graud Haven & Milwaukee railroad. The Woman Went. Claiming to be a deputy sheriff from Branch county, a man came to the home of Leonard Fisher, near Plainwell, declaring that he hart a warrant for the arrest of Mrs. Fisher. He added that the woman had advertised for a husband, and had been in correspondence with the "complainant" for several months, securing about $50 from him. He said his warrant called for her arrest on the charge nf obtaining money under false pretenses. >, Fisher protested against the arrest, but the woman appeared willing to go with the stranger. Shf» said she was guilty. The husband did not believe her and didn't Wlieve that the stranger was an officer. He started out to inform1 ocal officers. The World's Coal Supply. German statisticians are patient, thorough workers, and the assurance of a leading German technical journal that the world's coal is sufficient for reasonable future demands is backed by elaborate tables that inspire confidence. Germany's deposits are estimated at 280,000,000,000 tons, or enough, allowing for increased demand, to last until the year 3000. Great Britain and Ireland are not so well off, but their 193,000,000,000 tons, with twice the German consumption, Will hold out 400 years. Other European countries have a less extensive outlook. Belgium's coal deposits are estimated at 23,000,000,000 tons, of France at 19,000,000,000, Austria 17,- 000,000,000 and Russia 40,000,000,000. North America is credited by this authority with 681,000,000,000 tons, or about the same as all Europe. But Asia and Siberia are believed to have even a greater store of coal as yet undeveloped. But calculations of fufi! ro""treTirends-ttpon t h e w ^ l t h " ^ r n a - t T ) t o u s e , were fllled^wlrli silvei\--irnttr-mr ture sometimes break down in practice. The lumber supply of the United States was once supposed to be adequate for several hundred years, but the growing prices of the commodity s.how that already trouble is In siifht. The immense increase in the use of steel and cement proves that substitutes for wood are sought. Forestry principles, remarks the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, will conserve the timber supply, but It will take time to apply them, and the country will be fortunate if they become effective before the havoc reaches the form of desert places. In the meantime his wife and the stranger drove to Plainwell. dismissed their livery rig and disappeared. The Fishers were married about two and a half years ago in Grand Rapids. Mrs. Fisher is about 40 years old. Jumped to His Death. Corl Benton, 21 years old, son ol Aid. George A. Benton, of Charlotte, was killed in Lansing early Friday morning by jumping from a Grand Trunk passenger train. He struck a water tower and his skull was crushed. He had been to Detroit with a friend, Roy Bishop, of Charlotte, and they were beating their way home. This story is told by young Bishop: "We were afraid we would be picked up by officers when the train drew into Lunsing, and Corl jumped without looking. I did not jump. When I went back to look for Corl I found him beside the track. I called the trainmen, and he was taken to the^5 hospital, where he died." Young Benton was a graduate of the Charlotte high school, a student at the Agricultural college and a member of the football team of 1903. Thief Was,loaded. Literally loaded down with silver plate until his pockets bulged, Walter B. Stewart, who had raided the private dining room of the Van Vleck hotel, in Saginaw, was discovered by a young girl as he was about to escape by a side door. The girl called on the burglar to halt, and the proprietor rushed to the scene and grappled with the man. Every pocket of his trousers, coat and vest- and his shirt made into a could hardly walk. A second search at headquarters revealed still more loot. One piece was valued at $100. An Insane Fiend. James Braghini, who so fiendishly murdered the infant son of Henry Montonati at Iron Mountain last May, has been removed from the Dickinson county jail to the asylum for the criminal insane at Ionia. Entering the Montonati home, Braghini snatched the nursing babe from its mother's breast and dashed it against the wall with such violeuce as- to cause instant death. There was no provocation. With great unanimity the preachers of baccalaureates to young men graduates this year have warned them away from the pursuit of wealth. This is a wide departure from what has been dinned Into American ears a s "success" for three-quarters of a century. The Chicago Chronicle calls attention to the fact that nobody, unless it be President Butler, of Columbia university, has hinted that this is only a new extreme quite as vicious as the old—that wealth still retains and probably always will, retain its .power in the world for good and ill Mrs. Latham, wife rf Rev.

Prompt obedience to his father's commands saved 8-year-old Reggie Gibbons, of Grant township, from a horrible death. The little fellow was assisting his father unloading hay from the wagons to the barn when he was caught in the fork and carried a distance of 30 feet into the air and a few feet from machinery which would have ground him to pieces..The father, seeing his son's plight, yelled to him to drop. Reggie did BO and fell face downwards on the barn floor, receiving only bruises on the face and body. The father ascribes the boy's escape, to prompt obedience. Ke says if the drop had been 500 feet Reggie would.have let go just the same. welfare are, first, how he acquires it; and, secondly, what uses he makes of it.

OF SERVIA Servia appears pretty tired of King Peter and not very enthusiastic a t a nation about King Peter's sons. The country doubtless will not put them out of the way by assassination, for It has learned the worJd does not approve of that method*, of change of monarchs—the iforld still turning^a cold shoulder to the little country tucked ID there by Austria-Hungary, Roumaniu, Bulgaria, Turkey and Montenegro. Peter's oldest son, Crown Prince George, is not a very pleasant youth. He Is reported as unfortunate possessor of a most ungovernable temper. If the stories be true It would seem he is not fit to attempt governing anybody until he learns considerably more about controlling himself. In this day and age a prince may not with impunity shoot at his tuter when the tutor enters the school room to begin the day's work, may not strike an officer with a whip simply because the officer conveys a piece of unwelcome news. And a youth of 18 so foolish as to try to batter down a locked iron gate with a bicycle is of a degree of foolishness calling for general contempt. The crown prince recently distressed father and governors by a show of fondness for the society of a gay actress, and the affair went so far the gay actress was informed the air of Belgrade certainly would impair her health if she were to remain. She gracefully withdrew, to Vienna. The prince precipitately followed, but was finally brought back by court officials. Montenegrons and Servians are really the same people, and there Is probability that the second son of the Prince of Montenegro may be asked to become ruler of Servia. 'For various reasons Prince Mlrko would not be a bad choice. The two dynasties, Karageorgevic and Obrenovic, are united in this prince, he might easily prove a candidate agreeable to both factions of the country. His wife, who is a strikingly beautiful woman, belongs to the Obrenovic family. Prince Mirko is brother-in-law of Peter, his sister, now dead, was wife of Servia's present king. 0LD-FA8HI0NED DOUGHNUTS If Too Rich They Bosk the Fat—How to Make and Fry "Prop- COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF O F GERMAN NAVY The kaisers's only surviving brother has been appointed commander-in-chief of the German navy, succeeding Admiral Edward von Knorr. Prince Henry of Prussia is known far and wide as the sailor prince, and now stands at the head of the navy of the German empire. A "jolly Lar" is the conventional phrase, all sea-faring men supposedly good fellows. It appears Prince Henry of Prussia is no excetion to the rule—we all remember how often on his recent visit to America he was assured of being a good fellow, a jolly good fellow. In his own country the prince gees by this name, is accounted pleasant and jovial. They say a sailor's life is apt to take the nonsense out of a man. and that both King Haakon of Norway and Prince Henry of Prussia, two royal sailors, are democratic and simple in their tastes would give Indication that certain virtues lies in a sailor's training. The German prince is said_ to have a great dislike for court life. But that does not necessarily mean he is nothing of a courtier or diplomat. On his visit here the prince won everybody by his charm of manner. A, gallant sailor, Prince Henry. The new commaruler is quite youthful, 44 years old; but with enough years to have had- very considerable experience in the navy. He was but a small boy when he began his apprenticeship, and it is declared his advance has been through merit alone. Prince Henry is a prime favorite with the kaiser, and that he should hold this place is small wonder; Henry once saved his brother's life, back in 1874 it was, when the two were swimming in the Havel, near the so-called marble palace.

A J" 5s W K f t mi Kt'-' • "I, * • • J"-' \ A FOOL FOR LOVE By FRANCIS LYNDE AUTHOR OP "THE GRAFTERS." ETC. (Copyright, 1906,by J. P. Lippinoow Oo.) J. / < r CHAPTER 1. It was a December morning—the Missouri December of mild temperatures and saturated skies—and the Chicago & Alton's fast train, dripping from the rush through the wet night, had steamed briskly to its, terminal in the Union station at Kansas City. Two men, one smoking a short pipe and the other snapping the ash from a scented cigarette, stood aloof from the hurrying throngs on the platorm looking on with the measured interest of those who are in a melee but not of it/ "More delay," said the cigarettist, glancing at his watch. "We are over an hour late now. Do we get any of it back on the run to Denver?" The pipe smoker shook his head. "Hardly, I should say. The 'Limited' 13 a pretty heavy train to pick up lost time. But it won't make any particular difference. The western connections all wait for the 'Limited,' and we shall reach the seat of. war tomorrow night, according to the Boston itinerary." Mr. Morton P. Adams flung away the unburned half of his cigarette and masked a yawn behind his hand. "It's no end of a bore, Winton, and that is the plain,, unlacquered fact,' he protested. "I think the governor owes me something. I worried through the Tech because he Insisted that I should have a profession; and now I am going in for field work with you in a howlirig winter wilderness because he insists on a practical demonstration. I shall ossify out there in those mountains. It's written in the book." "Humph! It's too bad about you," said the other, ironically. He was a fit figure of a man, clean-cut and vigorous, from the steadfast outlook of the gray eyes and the close clip of the Van Dyck beard to the square fingertips of the strong hands, and his smile was of good-natured contempt. "As you say, it is an outrage on filial complaisance. All the same, with the rightof- way fight in prospect, Quartz Creek canyon may not prove to be such a valley of dry bones as— Lock out, there!" The shifting engine had cut a car from the rear of the lately arrived Alton, and was sending it down the outbound track to a coupling with the Transcontinental "Limited." Adams stepped back and let it miss him by a hand's-breadth, and as the car was passing Winton read the name on the panelling. "The 'Rosemary;' somebody's 20- ton private outfit. That cooks our last chance of making up any lost time between this and to-morrow—" He broke off abruptly. On the square rear observation platform of the private car were three ladies. One of them was small and blue-eyed, with wavy little puffs of snowy hair peeping out under her dainty widow's cap. Another was small and blue-eyed, with wavy masses of flaxen hair caught up from a face which might have served as a model for the most exquisite bisque figure that ever came out j)f France. But Winton saw only the third. ^ _ _ _ She was taller than either of her companions—tall and straight and lithe; a charming, embodiment of health and strength and beauty; clearskinned, brown-eyed—a very goddess fresh from the bath, in Wlnton's instant summing-up of her, and her crown of red-gold hair helped out the simile. Now thus far in his thirty-year plFgrimages John Winton, man and boy, had lived the Intense life of a working hermit so far as the social gods and goddesses were concerned. Yet he had a pang—of disappointment or pointed jealousy, or something akin to both—when Adams lifted his hat to this particular goddess, and was rewarded by a little cry of recognition, and stepped up to the platform to be presented to the elder and younger bisques. So, as we say, Winton turned and walked away as one left out, feeling one moment as though he had been defrauded of a natural right, and doing himself the next, as a sensible n should. After a bit he was able to laugh at the "sudden attack," as he phrased it, but later, when he ana Adams were settled for the day-long 'ran in the Denver sleeper, and the ••limited" was clanking out over the ^wwltches, he brought the talk around ' with a carefully assumed air of lack- Interest to the party in the private cut. '. "She is a friend of yours, then?" he said, when Adams had taken the baitad hook open-eyed. The technologian modified .the assumption. "Not quite in your sense of the word, I fancy. I met her a number of times at the houses of mutual friends in Boston. She was studying at the conservatory." ' "But she isn't a Bostonian," said Winton, confidently. "Miss Virginia?—hardly. She Is a Carteret of the Carterets; Virginiaborn, bred, and named. Stunning girl, isn't she?" "No," said Winton, shortly, resenting the slang for no reason that he could have set forth in words. Adams lighted another of the scented villainies, and his clean-shaven face wrinkled itself into a slow smile. "Which meanjgihat she has winged you at sight, I suppose, as she does most men." Then he added, calmly: "It's no go." "What's 'no go'?" Adams laughed unfeelingly. "You remind me of the fable about the head-hiding ostrich. Didn't I see you staring at her as if you were about to have a fit? But it is just as I tell you; it's no go. She isn't the marrying kind. If you knew--her, she'd be nice to you till she got a good chance to May you alive—" "Break it off!" growled; Winton. "Presently. As I was saying, she would misie the chance of marrying ihe best man in the world for the'sake of taking a rise out of him. Moreover, she comes of old cavalier stock with an English earldon; at the back of it, and she is inordinately proud of president and manager in fact of the Colorado ft Grand River road; the 'Rajah,' they call him. He is a relative of the Carterets, and the party Is on its way to spend the winter on the Pacific coast." *:;., * ,-tvh 'i \v,. "And the little lady in to* widow's cap; Is she Miss Carteret's mother?" "Miss Bessie Carteret's mother and Miss Virginia's aunt. She Is the chaperon." Winton was silent while the "Limited" was roaring through a village on the Kansas side of the river. When he spoke again it wasitot'Of the Carterets; it was of the Carterets* kinsman and host. "I have hear4 somewhat of the Rajah," he said, half musingly. "In fact, I know him, by sight. He is what the magazinists are fond of calling an industry colonel,' a born leader who has fought his way to the front. If the Quartz Creek row is anything more than a stiff bluff on the part of the C. & G. R. It will be quite as well for us if Mr. Somerville Darrah is safely at the other side of the continent— an,d well out of reach of the wires." Adams came to attention with a half-hearted attempt to galvanize an interest in the business affair. "Tell me more about this mysterious jangle we, are heading for," he rejoined. "Have I enlisted for a soldier when I thought I was only going into peaceful exile as an assistant engineer of construction on the Utah Short Line?" "That remains to be seen." Winton took a leaf from his pocket memorandum and drew a rough outline map. "Here is Denver, and here Is Carbonate," he explained. "At present the Utah is running into Carbonate this way over the rails of the C. & G. R. on a joint track agreement which either line may terminate by giving six months' notice of its intention to the other. Got that?" "To have and to hold," said Adams. "Go on." "Weli, on the first day of September the C. & G. R. people gave the Utah management notice to quit." "They are bloated monopolists," said Adams, sententlously. "Still, I don't that when the Utah line is finally completed it won't be able to secure any freight for a year at least" "Oho! that's the game, is it? I begin to savvy the burro; that's the proper phrase, isn't it? And what are our chances?" "We have about one in a hundred, as near a3 I could make out from Mr. Callowell's statement of the case. The C* & G. R. people are moving heaven and earth to obstruct us* in the canyon. If they can delay the work a little longer, the weather will do the rest. With the first heavy snow in the mountains, which usually comes long before this, the Utah will have to put up its tools and wait till next summer." Adams lighted another cigarette., "Pardon me if I am inquisitive," he said, "but for the life of me I cahT understand what these obstructionists can do. Of course, they can't use force." Winton's smile was grim. "Can't they? Wait till you get on the ground. But the first move was peaceable enough. FIGHT WITH A MANIAC MUTB WAS DESPERATE AND FUTILE. SHOT BY JILTED LOVER. Matters of Note and Comment From Various Points in the State Briefly Told. Husky. Maniac Escaped. Deputy Sheriff James, of Muskegon, had a desperate hand-to-hand struggle with Edward Cartwright, the deaf mute maniac who escaped into the woods after attempting to shoot Miss Maggie Mlnnick near Whitehall. James received information that the maniac was hiding in a clump of woods near the city. He went to the They got an injunction from j «P°t with Deputy Sheriff Hazelton and the ^courtsrestraining the new line! eatered^the wood, .leaving, the latter from encroaching on their right of way." "Which was a thing that nobody wanted to do," said Adams, between inhalations. "Which was a thing the Utah had to to watch the road; After a short search he saw Cartwright leaning against a tree, making peculiar motions with his hand. The mute, being unable to hear, did not notice the approach of the officer. James sneaked up behind him and do," corrected Winton. "The canyon I Jumped on his back.

He resigned, and I'm taking his berth." Adams rose and buttoned his coat. VBy all of which it seems that we two are in fcr a good bit more than the ossifying exile," he remarked. And then; "1 am going back into the Rosemary to pay my respects to Mi?? Virginia Cartaret. Won't you come along?" "No," said Winton, more shortly than the invitation warranted; and the technologian went his way alone. She rejected his attentions because, she said, he used vile language. Miss Moss was a member of the choir in a Methodist church. Smith was watching the house all evening, and just before he went to the door and called the girl to shoot her, he pointed a revolver at three young women who live in the Moss house. After the shooting Smith ran and hid in a lumber yard. Search of that locally failed to reveal him and it was the belief that he had made a getaway. C H A P T E R II. "Scuse me, sah; private pah, sah." It-was the porter's challenge in the vestibule of the Rosemary. Adams found a c^rd. "Take that to Miss Carteret—Miss Virginia Carteret," he directed, and waited till the man came back with his welcome. The extension table in the-open rear third of the private car was closed to its smallest dimensions, and the movable iurnishings were disposed about the compartment to make it. a comfortable lounging room.

WINTON TURNED A N D W A L K E D AWAY. the fact; while you—er—you've given me to understand that you are a man of the people, haven't you?" Winton nodded absently. It was one of his minor fads to ignore his lineage, which ran decently back to a colonial governor on his father's side, and to assert that he did not know his grandfather's middle name—which was accounted for by <the very simple fact that the elder Winton had no middle name. "Well, that settles it definitely," was the Bostonian's comment. "Miss Carteret is of the sang aiure, The man who marries her will have to know his grandfather's middle name—and a good bit more besides." Wlnton's laugh was mockingly.goodnatured. "You have missed your calling by something more than a hand's-breadth. Morty. You should have been a novelist. Give you a spike and a cross-tie and you'd infer a whole railroad. But you pique my curiosity. Where are these American royalties of yotirs going in the Rosemary.?" "To California. - The car belongs to Mr. Somerville Darrah, who is vice be any Quartz scrap- Creek see why there, should ping over the line in canyon." "No? You are not up in monopolistic methods. In six months from September 1st the Utah people will be shut out of Carbonate business, which is all that keeps that part of their line alive. If they want a share of that traffic after March 1st, they will have to have a road of their own to carry it over." "Precisely," said Adams, stifling a yawn. "They are building one, aren't they?" •Trying to." Winton amended. "But, unfortunately, the only practical route through the mountains Is up Quartz Creek canyon, and the canyon Is already occupied by a branch of the Colorado & Grand River." "Still, I don't see Why there should be any scrap." "Don't you? If the Rajah's road can keep the new line out of Carbonate till the six months have expired, it will have a monopoly of all the carrying trade of the camp. By consequence It can force every shipper in the district to make iron-clad contracts, so Made Good Score.

Washington.—Secretary Wilson has made public the regulations under the new law governing the inspection of meat products for interstate and foreign trade. They do not, however, cover the subject of interstate transportation of meat or the microscopic inspection of pork for export. Regulations on these subjects, it was stated, will be IssuedJater, , The general regulations provide that the scope of the inspection shall cover all slaughtering, packing, meatcanning, salting, rendering or similar establishments whose meats or meat food products, in whole or in part, enter into interstate or foreign commerce, unless exempted from inspection by the secretary of agriculture. Under the law the only establishments which may be exempted by the secretary are retail butchers and retail dealers supplying their customers in interstate or foreign trade, but even those exempted classes are required to submit to the secretary an application for exempfton. - Sanitary Regulations. Sanitary regulations require the establishments in which animals are slaughtered or meat and meat food products are prepared, packed, stored or handled to be suitably lighted and ventilated, and to be maintained in a sanitary condition. Ail portions of the buildings must be whitewashed or painted, or where this is impracticable, they must be washed, scraped or otherwise rendered sanitary. All trucks, trays, chutes, platforms, racks, tables, knives, saws, cleavers and all utensils and machinery used in handling meats must be thoroughly cleansed daily. Clean Outer Clothing. Employes of the establishments must wear outer clothing of a material that is easily cleansed and made sanitary. Toilet rooms, urinals and dressing rooms are required to be entirely, separate from apartments' in which carcasses are dressed or meats and meat food products are prepared. Managers of establishments will not ! be permitted to employ auy person j affected with tuberculosis in any of j the departments where carcasses are ' dressed, meats handled, or meat food ' products prepared. i Butchers who dress diseased car- j oasses are required to cleanse and j disinfect their hands and implements , before touching heulthy •c^-^izia. \ Inspectors to Report. Week;y reports on sanitation are to , be made by tfie employes in charge of various departments to the inspector in charge of the station, who in turn must report weekly to the chief of • the bureau of animal industry at Washington. j The provision relating to dyes, chemicals and preservation is strin- i gent. j Heretofore the ante mortem inspection has been made in the stock i yards, at the time the animals arrived, , and has covered animals which were to be slaughtered at establishments where inspection was maintained, and [ those—which w e w sJa ughtered for ku_j cal trade. The new law does not au-! thorize inspection of animals for lo- j cal trade. It came to the attention of! which the regulations are issued, contains a provision that no meat or meat food product shall be sold or offered for sale by any person, Arm or corporation In interstate or foreign commerce under any false or deceptive name, but established trade names which are usual to such products and which are not false and deceptiye_ and which shall be approved by the secretary of agriculture are permitted. The regulation on this subject provides that trade labels which are false or deceptive in any particular shall, not be permitted, and that a meat food product whether composed of one or more ingredients, shall not be named on the trade label with a name stating or purporting to show that the said meat food product is a substance which is not the principal ingredient contained therein, even though such a name be an established trade" name. These provisions in regard to labels conform to the requirements of the pure food law. It was stated at one time that the provisions of the meat inspection law, conflicted with the pure food law, but this idea is not borne out by the regulations just issued. Supervision of Stamps. All stamps, labels and certificates showing that meat and meat food products have been inspected and passed are required either to be affixed by a government employe or to be affixed by an employe of the establishment under the personal supervision of a goverenment employe. Certificates are required for exports of cattle, sheep, swine and goats, and the meat and meat food products thereof, and no vessel having on board any such animals, meat or meat food products for export will be allowed to clear by the customs officers until the certificate of the secretary of agriculture, showing that the meat ii sound, healthful, wholesome and fit for food, is produced. , , Free Access to Houses. For the purpose of enforcing the law and the regulations, inspectors j and other government employes un- j der the direction of the inspector, i must have access to establishments at all times by day or night, whether the > establishments be operate or not. The regulation directs attention to ! the fact that it is a felony, punish- ;• al)le by fine or imprisonment, for any i firm or corporation or any agent or : employe'thereof, to give or offer, di-j rectiy or indirectly, to any depart- j ment employe engaged in meat in-, j spectiori any money or other thing of j value with intent to influence the employe in the discharge of his duty. Labeling Carcasses. The provisions in regard to labeling carcasses which are found diseased and »vhich have been condemned, are very complete. A system of tags, numbered in duplicate, with reports to the inspector in charge, .who, in turn, reports to Washington, will make it impossible for any carcass which J i a s once been tagged by_ a department employe to escape the vigilance of the inspectors. Method of Appeal. There is no more wldely-talked-of book today than this recent Instance in the "literature of exposure," "The Jungle," the book which has led to a government investigation of conditions In the Chicago stockyards. And of course people are asking many questions about the author. It seems unnecessary to mention that "The Jungle" is not Upton Sinclair's first book—one does not learn to write like that in a day. But it is the first one of his books that has made a tremendous sensation. We have hazy remembrance "The Journal of Arthur Stirling" received comment as an unusual production, but "The Jungle" has made everybody start, has amazed, aisgusted, aroused—interested. Upton Sinclair is known, will not Boon be forgotten. Upton Sinclair Is young and streuuous, we may class him with Frank Norris in the devotion of tremendous youthful energy to art, to an ideal. "The Jungle" was not written easily, facility, but in the sweat of brow, in trasail and pain. In reading the author's own account of how the book was worked out, one la reminded of Joseph Conrad's "Youth"—Youth that dares and struggles and attains. Youth often makes mistakes, but it is Youth that dares and struggles and attains. Upton Sinclair Is only 28 years old. Baltimore is his birthplace. fte wa3 graduated at the College of the City of New York, and studied at Columbia university. Once it would have seemed a far cry from university to Packingtown, but the university man of the present exalts the real, aims at seeing life first hand—this the day of original research rather than bookishness.' To write "The Jungle" the author had to steep himself in Packingtown (horrible phrase!), dwell in the thick of the smells and degradation, find entrance to the many corners not open to that strange public that counts It tourist duty to make a tour of the places where creatures are killed and turned into meat. It was socialist friends that obtained Mr. Sinclair to entrance to the forbidden corners, and we may mention that Mr. Sinclair Is vice president of the Intercollegiate Socialist society. Sinclair books previous to "The Jungle," are; "Springtime and Harvest," "King Midas," "The Journal of Arthur Stirling," "Prince Hagen, a Phantasy," "Manasses. a Novel of the War," "Our Bourgeoise Literature,'' "The Industrial Republic Series." G O V E R N O R OF THE C A N A L ZONE Secretary Taft h a s , instructed Gov. Magoon that arm«d interference may be called into play in suppression of any revolutionary movements In Panama interfering with progress of work on the Panama canal. It is to be hoped, for the sake of avoidance of heated debate as well as in the intere s t s o f pCRTe, ttrat such interference will not be necessary, . • Gov. Magoon, who is governor of the canal zone, has had considerable experience in Panama affairs. He previously served as a member of the canal commission, and in addition to his duties as governor represents our country as minister to Panama. Gov. Magoon hails from the iVest. He was born In Minnesota, attended the high school at Owatonna, Minn., and continued his studies at the Lniverslty of Nebraska. In 1882 he was admitted to the bar, and at once began the practice of law. He was judge advocate of She Nebraska National Guard, and later we find him at Washington law officer of the bureau of insular affairs in the department of war. In 1904 he was made general counsel of the isthmian canal commission: since May 25 of last year has held the post of governor of the canal zone; in July was appointed American minister to P&nama. s Katurally Xatarari*d* Sir H. K. Roscoe tells tL<« story: "Sir Robert Ball ou^one occasloj, after delivering a lecture on 'Sun Spots end Solar Chemistry/ met a young lady who expressed her regret that she had missed hearing him on the previous evening. 'Well, you see,* he aald, 'I don't know that It would have interested you particularly, as it was all about sun spots.' 'Why,' she replied, 'it would have interested me extremely, for I have been a martyr to freckles all my life.'" __ : p, ** A Pretty Hand. The pretty hand has a charm that la M second to the charm of a pretty face. ™ The pretty hand should have character. It should be graceful and expressive, significant of something besides prettiness. It Bhould be firm, and It may be brown or white, but never red or mottled. It may be dimpled, but It, should not be pudgy and softly fat like a cushion. A hand of this sort suggests flabbiness of nature, undevelopment and helplessness. ^ a _ World's Largest Flower. The largest flower in the world has been supposed to be that of rafflesia arnoldi, which forms the entire plant and grows to a d i a m e t e r of three feet as a flat, circular parasite on trees in Java and Sumatra, b u t still larger—single specimens of which weigh as much as 22 pounds—have been reported to exist In Mindanao, one of the Philippines.

" t h e department that speculators were taking advantage of this form of inspection, and the farmers who shipped the animals to market were thereby losing several hundred thousand dollars a year. Under the new form of inspection the shipper will be assolutely protected, and will receive full price for all animal3 which pass the inspection. The inspection of animal3 before slaughter, designated in the regulations as. the ante mortem inspection, is changed to conform to the new law, and to give the secretary of agriculture authority to require" that all animals suspected of disease on this ante mortem* inspection shall be slaughtered separately and apart from all •other animals, under the careful supervision of federal inspectors. Destruction of Carcasses. Special provision is made for the • destruction for food purposes of all carcasses and parts of carcasses and meat food products which, upon inspection or reinspectlon prove to be unclean, unsound, .unhealthful, unwholesome, or otherwise unfit for huj n a n food. All such meat will be . ^ c c e d in a tank in the presence of a ^government inspector and sufficient Coloring matter will be added t o render it impossible that the tankage can be used for lard or other eatable product. If any establishment refuses to follow the tankttgW "regulation,: HP jepectkm will be withdrawn. -Wh ^ V M ?teW i*»*r4^ leuever tire proprietor of a~rr establishment questions the action of the Inspector in condemning any carcass or meat, he may take an appeal to the inspector in charge, and from the inspector In charge if he desires, to the chief of the bureau of animal industry, or to the secretary of agriculture whose decision is final, so far as the department is concerned. All inspectors in charge of the meat inspection stations are directed to notify the municipal authorities of the character of the inspection and to cooperate with such authorities in preventing the entry of condemned meat or other products into the local markets. Running through the regulations is a carefully prepared scheme which will effectually prevent the entrance Into sausage, curing, canning and other chopped meat establishments of any carcasses which were not inspected and passed by federal inspectors at the time of slaughter. One of the important provisions of the regulations Is the following definition : " 'U. S.

Last Act of Drama. Viborg, Finland.—The curtain dropped Monday afternoon on the final act of the drama of Russia's first parliament, when, under the spur of the threat of Gov. Richanberg to use force to end the sesslor. and with troops already converging on the Hotel Belvedere, where the meeting was held, the assembled members of the lower hause, 186 in number, hurriedly adopted and signed an address to the people which is thoroughly revolutionary in its nature, elected a perpetual executive committee headed by Prince Paul Dolgoroukoff, vice president of the house, to carry on the work of liberation and adjourned amidst characteristic Russian embracing and kissing. Immediately after the governor's announcement that the meeting must be stopped a detachment of infantry passed the Hotel Belvedere singing, to show that there are enough troops to carry out the threat of dispersal.

Douma Is Dissolved. St. Petersburg.—The czar issued a ukase Sunday morning dissolving the parliament and placing St. Petersburg under martial law. The ukase calls for a new parliament to meet March 5, 1907. Another ukase Issued by the czar relieved 31. Goremykin of the premiership and appointed M. Stolypin his successor. The latter retains his present post of minister of the interior. The government's midnight coup d'etat is already having the effect of uniting all the discordant elements of the opposition, and it requires little perspicacityv to see that an era of repression and all it entails will drive liberal and revolutionist alike to support the moat desperate measures.

I was a steady coffee drinker, but didn't suspect that as the "cause. I- took almost—anything_ which someone else had been cured with but to no good. I was very bad last summer and could not work at times. "On Dec. 2, 1902, I was taken so bad the doctor said I could not live over 24 hours at the most, and I made all preparations to die. I could hardly eat anything, everything distressed me,, and I was weak and sick all over. When in that condition coffee was abandoned and I was put on Postum, the change in my feelings came quickly after the drink that was poisoning me was removed. "The pain and sickness- fell away from me^and I began to get well day by day, so I stuck to it until now I am well and strong again, can eat heartily, with no headache, heart trouble or the awful sickness of the old coffee days. I drink all I wish of Postum without any harm and enjoy it immensely. "This seems like a strong story, but I would refer you to the First Nat'l Bank, the Trust Banking Company, or any merchant of Grant's Pass, Ore., in regard to my standing, and I will send a sworn statement of this if you wish. You can also use my name." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Still there are many who persistently fool themselves by saying "Coffee don't hurt me."

Merit is the best advertisement in the world. People speak well of things they know are good. They pass the good word along. The best, breakfast food is EGG-OSEE, for it contains all the life-giving properties of nature's best food, which is wheat. EGG-O-SEE is deeply in debt to the thousands of wives and mothers who use it in their homes, for these good wonr:i tell their neighbors about this grca; food. Children and aged persons alike are friends of EGG-O-SEE. Merit and common sense are the things that advertise EGG-O-SEE most. EGG-O-SEE is cheap. A lucent package contains ten liberal breakfasts. EGG-O-SEE is sold everywhere. Grocers must keep it if they want to keep their good customers, for good customers insist on buying EGG-O-SEE. The fact that no preparation, no cooking is required, makes EGG-OSEE very popular. Open the package; put as much as you like in a dish; pour on milk or cream and eat. It is delicious. It is wholesome. It makes you strong. A lot of interesting facts about EGG-O-SEE have been published in book form entitled, "Back to Nature."

These boys used to sit Inside this queer instrument and sing the airs that the man who handled the bow was playing on the viol outside. The effect is said to have-been very beautiful,'though it would seem as if the presence of the lads in its interior would seriously interfere with the tone of the "great Addle," as it was culled. Many years after another huge Instrument of this kind was used at concerts iu Boston.

"This is an antimacassar," said an antiquary. "It Is a hundred- years old and very valuable on account of the quaint designs of its embroidery. Some day I shall sell it to n millionaire. Yes, some day this antimacassar will adoru a millionaire's parlor, figuring there as an antique object of art, and that will be as though a spittoon of today should figure 0.9 an object of art in some aesthetic lady's drawing room in 3000." He laid the antimacassar, a kind of tidy, ia a sandalwood box. Then he went on: "The word's derivation shows the thing's use —anti, against; macassar, hair oil. The antimacassar was spread on chair backs to protect them from the oil in people's hair. Everybody i used Rowland's macassar oil on hi.s locks in those days. The name given to the tidy, or chair shield, was a free advertisement for Rowland as excellent as it was unique."

An account of the habits of the cuckoo, for instance, was apparently absorbed at the time, but was reproduced thus a few days later: "The cuckoo? Oh, that's the bird that doesn't lay its own eggs." B r i g h t A n a w e r a . "Noah's wife," wrote a boy in an examination, "was called Joan of Arc." "Water," wrote another, "ii composed of two gases, oxygen and cambrigen." "Lnva," said a third, "is what the bar- | ter puts on your face." "A blizzard," Cellared another child, "is the inside of l fowl." There is nothing so pleasant as that bright, cheerful, at-peace with-tbeworld feeling when you sit. down to your breakfast. There is nothing so conducive to good work and good results. The healthy man with a heal!hy mind and body is a bettet fellow, a better workman, a better citizHn than the man or woman who is handicapped by some disability, however slight. A slight disorder Dt' the stomach will derange youi" body, your thought-; and your disposition. Get away from, the morbidness and the blues. Keep your stomach in tune and both your brain and body will respond. Little iudiscretious of overeating can be easily corrected and you will be surprised to see how much better man you are.

The affirmative Is main tained in a society paper, but with regard to this point the London Mall writes: "I cannot say that slang is going out among the smart set, but It la constantly changing, so that only the initiated—that is the chosen few who are constantly meeting—can tell which words are in vogue. Woe be tide any outsider who, trusting to what he or she knows of ordinary slang tries to join in and do likewise! T m what a certain exclusive sec tfen of society indulges in is not slang as the world in general understands the term. It is rather a freemasonry to language, a kind of secret code taown only to themselves—in fact, if you will, their own particular slang, distinct from any other. This little language was invented by one of themselves in a moment of inspiration many years ago, and it has lasted with modification to the present moment. "To the outsider who is interested one may say that It consists wholly of abbreviations, and is therefore as labor-saving an invention as the typewriter. Thus In the words of the •Mart set 'neury' stands for neural- .gfcft, 'caaaipey' for champagne, 'divey' for divide, 'umbey' for umbrella, 'Kenssy* for Kensington, and so on. "It is almost too foolish to print, but it is a phrase of modern life^and so may command an instant's attention. No, the jargon of cliques and sets will never die." REV.

No paradox is it, but demonstrable fact, that, in a highly articulate soelety, the graveet harms are inflicted, not by the worst men, but by those with virtues enough to boost them Into some coign cf vantage. E JUDGE LANDIS HOLDS TRANSFER OF ESTATE TO VOLIVA IS VOID AND ORDERS ELECTION FOR GENERAL OVERSEER. Chicago.—John Alexander Dowie, Months ago repudiated by his followers as their spiritual leader, Friday was declared legally to have no A. Ross,! personal, or private claim to the vast i y ~n in an article in the Atlantic Monthly, points out that the boss who sells out the town and delivers the poor over to filth, disease, and the powers that prey, owes his chance to his engaging good-fellowship and blg-heartedness. Some of the most dazzling careers of fraud have behind them long and reassuring records of probity, which Tiave served to bait the trap of villainy. Not that these decoy-virtues are counterfeit. They are, in fact, so genuine that often the stalwart sinner perseveres in the virtue that has lifted him into the high place he abuses. The legislator conscientiously returns the boodle when he finds ae cannot "deliver the goods." The boss stands by his friends to his own hurt The lobbying lawyer is faith, ful to his client. The corrupting corporation- president is loyal to his ^stockholders. The boughten editor •ever quite overcomes his craft-lnhttttact to print "all the news there is." In a word, the big and formidable sinners are gray of soul, but not black, so that chastisement according to their character rather than according to their deeds lets them off far too easy. T' ' . V Opposition to the endless flood of immigrants is usually based either upon -the ieai that-they will destroy the market for native labor or the belief that they will lower the standard of citizenship and morality. Tn either case, says Youth's Companion, the fear Is directed against the immigrant himself. At the recent convention, in New York, cf the American Social Science association, a danger less often considered was pointed out: that which comes from the second generation. The foreign-born population, according to figures which were given, furnishes more than twice its normal proportion of Inmates of penal, insane and charitable institutions; but the children of immigrants are three times as criminal as the children of the native-born, and twice as criminal as the immigrant* iemae.'ves. Zion estate. Wilbur Glen Voliva, present overseer and leader of the revolt against Dowie, was held also to have no legal hold on the property. Judge K. M. Landis of the United States dis-" trict court, in deciding the famous controversy, placed the whole property In the hands of John C. l a t e l y as receiver pending entry of a final decree and designation of a permanent trustee. He ordered also an election by the people of Zion the third Tuesday of September as to who shall rule them spiritually. Long before the hour set for the announcement of the court's ruling Overseer Wilbur Glenn Voliva and all the leaders who assisted in the overthrow of Dowie and many of his followers were in court, as were also the loyal supporters of Dowie. Broken in health and spirit, the hoary-headed founder of Zion was too weak to leave Shiloh House at Zion City, and received the first news of his defeat by telephone. The Ruling in Brief. Following are the important points in Judge Landis' decision: Lands, industries and all property in Zion held to constitute a trust estate In which John Alexander Dowie can claim no individual proprietorship. The conveyance by Voliva under power of attorney from Dowie of the Zion property to Granger declared to be "mere waste paper." An election ordered for the third Tuesday in September, at which all Mr. Phelan's Letters. Rev, John Roderick Phelan, as he gave his name in Detroit, recently of Cement City, but now in Jackson jail charged with fleecing friends and banks out of considerable money, is being nicely treated by sympathetic women, who take him fruit, etc. In strong contrast to this was one caller who had loaned Phelan $150. He said: "Well, you got Into me all right, and may the good Lord help you, if that will do you any good:"^ ~ - — As the case develops there appears to be a probability that Phelan's past may be raked over in a way that may cause trouble. When Phelan was searched several letters were found which, apparently from women, show a spirit of devotion stronger than pastoral. There is a request from a writer of one ."to destroy this as I have yours." The letters are now in the hands of the prosecuting attorney. What his purpose was in not destroying them as requested is a mystery to the officers. But they do reflect very seriously on a number of women who were evidently fascinated by him. In one of them there is an apparently jealous warning against a young woman who is supposed to he his fiancee. Serious Condition of His Health Causes Alarm. .EX-GQV..A. T. fijlss^of Michigan, now at the Sacred Heart sanitarium,, is in a serious condition. His private physician, Dr. B. W. Davis, who, iw 1th Mrs. Bliss and a nurse, attends 'him, said Saturday: "Ever since Mr. Bliss suffered a stroke of paralysis laBt September he has devoted himself to getting well. I was with him in the south for-three months last winter, where he improved to some; extent, and a short time ago his friends suggested that he try the treatments at this place. "We hope he will improve and it all depends on results how long we will remain. Since his illness, Gov. Bliss has taken no interest in politics, and makes few comments on what is readj to him. "The paralysis affected his throat and he talks with difficulty. Convex sation exhausts him easily." MICHIGAN IN BRIEF. Oakland county capital will establish a bank in Otlsville. She Got the Draft. Jennie Anderson, aged 28, a woman of striking beauty, is under arrest charged with having impersonated the wife of Gustave Anderson, who recently died at Bemidji, leaving an insurance policy of $2,000 in the Ancient Order of United Workmen, and with members of the church living in Zion j obtaining possession of a draft for the City since January, 1905, may vote for amount of the policy. The alleged de ecclesiastical leader of the church. If there be more than one candidate the tabernacle to be used alternately for campaign purposes. Publication of Leaves of Healing to be suspended until after the election except for, one issue, which is to contain the full decision of Judge Landis. In due course the court is to make provision for Dowie because of his services in organizing and developing the estate. Disposes of Bankruptcy Case. Judge Landis began the delivery of his decision at 11:15 a. m., and the reading required almost an hour. The case decided was the one in which William B. Holmes, a resident of. Kentucky, and a stockholder in Zion industries, petitioned for a receiver. The decision, however, covers all the questions involved and at the same time disposes of the bankruptcy cases against Dowie as, under the ruling, Dowie's debts are the debts of the trust estate. Judge Landis* sweeping decision sets at rest the controversy growing out of the action of Overseer Voliva in transferring the properties of Zion from John Alexander Dowie to Granger. Millions are Involved, and all Zion, throughout the world, has anxiously awaited the decision ception was not discovered until after the settlement was made by the company and Mrs. Anderson had left Bemidji. She was arrested at the home of her parents in Escanaba after the police authorities of Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan had been seeking for her for three weeks Peacemaker Slashed, fid. Thompson, an employe of a Dowagiac shoe factory, and his wife were having an altercation on the street. Gus Baldwin attempted to interfere. Thompson drew a razor and slashed Baldwin.

' • i " However much one may need money, one seldom likes to hold a soiled bill in one£s hands. Retail merchants in various iwrts of the countiy have frequently/ attempted to use only new money in making change. But the supply is not sufficient, and most of them have 10 give It up after a while. One such merchant has taken to cleaning every bill and every coin taken at his store before he gives it out in change. The demand for clean money is now" finding expression in Washington, where the treasuier of the United States has lately been urging congress to provide for reprinting worn bills more frequently. The reform would be appreciated. \ Text of Resolutions Adopted by Delegates at London. London.—The conference of the interparliamentary union, after a prolonged debate Wednesday, adopted the following resolution: "The interparliamentary union, now assembled in London, expresses the view that the second Hague conference should: "1. By treaty define contraband of war as being restricted to arms, munitions of war and explosives. "2. Reassert and confirm the principle that neither a ship carrying contraband of war nor other goods aboard such ship not being contraband of war may be destroyed. "3. Affirm that even between belligerents private property should be as immune at sea as it is on land." The conference also adopted a resolution In favor of the discussion by The Hague conference of means to cut down the "intolerable expenditure on armaments." Another resolution provides that such national group shall apply to Its own government to grant funds to aid future conferences of the interparliamentary union. The decision as to the time and place of the next conference was left in the hands of the international council. It i3 expected that it will be held in Berlin in 1908. The conference then concluded its sessions. The delegates were entertained at lunchon at the house of lords. A deputation of the visitors will be received by King Edward at Bucking* ham palace Thursday. BATTLE WITH PULAJANES. Constabulary Routs Enemy in Clash on Island of Leyte. Washington.—The following account of the fatal collision between the Philippine constabulary... and the Pulajanes in Leyte was received at the war department from Gen. Wood at Manila, dated Wednesday: "Sudden outbreak of Pulajanes occurred island of Leyte. Two constabulary detachments defeated; loss 12 In one case, 15 other, with arms. One constabulary lieutenant killed. On application governor general for use troops, under president's order, July 3, have directed Brig. Gen. Jesse M. Lee, commanding department of the VI say as, rush enough troops to scene of trouble to smother outbreak promptly. "Telegram from department of the Visayas this morning reports engagement between a detachment of the Twenty-fourth regiment, United States infantry, and 360 Pulajanes. Enemy's loss, 150; our loss, one constabulary sergeant wounded. No oo casion for anxiety." Forest Fires In Michigan. Marquette, Mich.—Serious forest fires are raging northwest of here The town of Birch, 15 miles di* tant, the scene of the extensive operations of the Northern Lumber company is in grave danger, and Mayor Culver, of Marquette, general manager of the company, who is at the scene has telephoned for help. With the sawmill plant and lumber and timber, half a million dollars worth of property is in jeopardy at Birch. Going Into Politics. The Central Labor union of Saginaw unanimously voted to accept Samuel Gompevs' advice and enter politics. A committee was appointed to call a nominating convention to be composed of five delegates from each union. The union will enter the fall campaign and It is understood will name full legislative and possibly congressional and county tickets. Bitten by Mad Dog. A mad dog running down crowded Main street and snapping at people right and left caused a big panic in Kalamazoo Saturday. In less than three minutes the entire street for four blocks was deserted, people running into shops and up stairways. Five persons are known to have been bitten and more than a dozen people attacked, three of whom managed to knock the dog do"wn™with club's" they had picked up near a building being erected'. Running down the street, he attacked a woman and then jumped Into a baby carriage in which therG were two babies. The woman got the dog by the tail and pulled him out before he had bitten either of the children. Others were attacked and bitten before police officers arrived and killed the dog. A. B. Campbell and S. W, Robinson, who were bitten, went to Ann Arbor tonight, where they will take treatment. The carcass of the dog was taken along. Officers have been unable to locate the owner of the dog. Fall Was Fatal. Cornelius Vanderlaar, aged 79, of Kalamazoo, fell down stairs at the home of.his son-in-law, Rev. Fred. Lubbers, in Grand Rapids, and died from concussion of the brain. The old gentleman came to see Rev. Mr. Lubbers installed as pastor of the Seventh Reformed church. As his injuries were not deemed serious the services took place as announced, but Mr. Vandelaar died during the ceremonies. Eight hundred buBhels of wheat, the season's hay and farm implements, were destroyed in a barn fire at the farm of Henry Parker, near Grand Blanc. Mr. Parker and three hired men were in the barn at the time, but all escaped the lightning bolt. To prevent drownings In the Sagtn ^ t . riv^r **ch o f t n e *«* bridges within the city will be equipped with * "ff-ooat and a life-preserver.

Loss about $6,000. John Elyea, living near Kalamazoo, will start next Monday, on u motor cycle trip to Los Angeles, Cal. Durand will have a harvest festival and fair on August 23 and 24, and will spend $1,000 on free attractions. John Streur, aged 13, dived from a plank in Black river, and his body failed to come to the surface again. Crops are dying in Hersey township for want of rain. There will be practically no crops unless relief comes soon. William Buckner, the boilermaker who stepped on a rusty nail last week and was attacked by lockjaw, died Wednesday evening. L o s i n g and vicinity is badly in need of rain. Crops are drying up. The grass on the capltol lawn is brown and dead for lack of water. Cornelius Vanderlaar, of Kalamazoo, fell down stairs at the home of. his son-in-law in Kalamazoo Thursday night and died shortly afterward. It has been agreed to donate the site of the old Dumford drydock and other land, worth $30,000, to the big shipbuilding plant which proposes to locate at Port Huron. While going home to see his wife, who had been taken suddenly ill, William Lawrence, of Muskegon, was caught between two cars and crushed so badly that he will probably die, Geo. H. Hannahs, formerly of South Haven, being the man who laid out the plat of the city, is dead in Los Angeles, Cal. He was one of the wealthiest men in Michigan in the lumber days. Former Mayor Sweet, of Grand Rap- Ida, writes from North Dakota that he will not permit his name to go before the Democratic state convention as a possible candidate for the gubernatorial nomination. John Elyea, living three miles south of Kalamazoo, proposes to motorcycle his way from Kalamazoo to Los Angeles, Cal. He has a number 0t relatives there and is going to make that place his home. While Claude Barner went to hitch" his horse to an electric light pole, in South Haven he was shocked by a live wire. Uriah Daniels ran to his aid i'nd was also severely shocked. Both men will probably recover. Bernard Murray, aged 6", drove upon the tracks of the G. R. & r. railroad at Grand Rapids after the gates had been lowered. A train struck his rig, which was thrown thirty feet, and Murray and one horse were instantly killed. The twenty-first annual session of the Michigan State Holiness association opened at Eaton Rapids for a ten _4ayaLnieeti.ng. Thursday.

Burns, which will prove fatal, were ' sustained by Alma Rae Miller, the 10- yearold daughter of Ray Miller, of Battle Creek, through the careless pranks of several small boys who were exploding matches by hitting the heads with stones. "I am going to hang myself," said 11-year-old Jay Klont, of Muskegon, to his four companions as he tied an awning rope about his neck. He was only joking, but his chums went away and left him and he was nearly dead when others found him. The heroic action of two members of the Michigan Naval Brigade in rescuing a shipmate from drowning is the subject of an order praising the two men issued from the adjutant-general's office.

ETC. (Copjitfbt, )806, by J.P. Llpplnoott Co.) ' CHAPTER II.—Continued. Mrs. Carteret was propped among the cushions of a divan with a book. Her daughter occupied the undivided half of a tete-a-tete chair with a blonde athlete in a clerical coat and a reversed collar. Miss Virginia was sitting alone at a window, but she rose and came to greet the visitor. "How good of you to take pity on us," she said, giving him her hand. Then she put him at one with the others: "Aunt Martha you have met; also Cousin Bessie. Let -me present you to Mr. Calvert, Cousin Billy, this is Mr. Adams, who is responsible tn a way for many of my Boston-learned gaucheries." Aunt Martha closed the book on her finger. "My dear Virginia!" she protested in mild deprecation; and Adams laughed and shook hands with Rev. William Calvert and made Virginia's peace all in the same breath. "Don't apologize for Miss Virginia, Mrs. Carteret. We were very good friends in Boston, chiefly, I think, because I never objected when she wanted to—er—to take a rise out of me." Then to Virginia: "1 hope I don't intrude?" "Not in the least. Didn't I Just say you were good to come? Uncle Somerville tells us we are passing through the famous Golden Belt, whatever that may be—and recommends an easy- -chalr and a window. But I, haven't .seen anything but stubble-fields—dismally wet stubble-fields at that. Won't you sit down and help me watch them go by?" Adams placed a chair for her, and found one for himself. " 'Uncle Somervllle'—am I to have the pleasure of meeting Mr. Somervllle Darrah?" Miss Virginia's look was non-committal. 'Quien sabe?" she queried, airing her one westernism before she was fairly in the longitude of it. "Uncle Somervllle is a law unto himself. He had a lot of telegrams and things at Kan- | sas City, and he is locked in his den; with Mr. Jastrow, dictating answers by the dozen, 1 suppose." "Oh, those industry colonels!" said Adams. "Don't their toilings make I you ache in sheer sympathy some- 'times?" | "No, indeed," was the prompt re- Joinder;."! envy them. It must be flue to have large things to do, and to be able to do them." "Degenerate scion of a noble race!" jested Adams. "What ancient Carteret of them all would have 'compromised —with—the necessities by becoming a captain of industry?" "It wasn't their metier or the metier of their times," said Miss Virginia with conviction. "They were swordsoldiers merely because that was the only way a strong man could conquer In those days. Now it is different, and a strong man fights quite as nobly in auother field—and deserves quite as much honor." "Think so? I don't agree with you —as to the fighting, I mean. I like to take things easy. A go:d club, a choice of decent theaters, the society ©f-a few charming "women like—s* ~ ~ She broke him with a mocking laugh. "You were born a good many centuries too late, Mr. Adams; you would have fitted so beautifully Into deT cadent Rome." "No — thanks. Twentieth-century America, with the commercial frenzy taken out of it, is good enough for me. I was telling Winton a little while ago--" ,vYour friend of the Kansas City station platform?" she interrupted. "Mightn't you introduce us a little less informally?" "Beg pardon, I'm sure—yours and Jack's: Mr. John Winton, of New York and the world at large, familiarly known to his intimates—and they • are precious few—as 'Jack W.' As I was about to say—" But she seemed to find a malicious satisfaction In breaking in upon him. '"Mr. John Winton;' it's a pretty inlscent vein, said: "You are going on through to Denver?" "To Denver and beyond," was the reply'. "Winton has a notion of hibernating in the mountains—fancy it; in the dead of winter!—and he has persuaded me to go along. He sketches a little, you know." "Oh, so he Is an artist?" said Virginia, with interest newly aroused. "No," said Adams, gloomily, "he isn't an artist—Isn't much of anything, I'm sorry to say. Worse than all, he doesn't know his grandfather's middle name. Told me so himself." "That is inexcusable—in a dilettante," said Miss Virginia, mockingly. "Don't you think so?" "It- is inexcusable In anyone," said the technologlan, rising to take his leave. Then, as a parting word: "Does the Rosemary set its own table? or do you dine in the dining car?" "In the dining car, if we have one. Uncle Somervllle lets us dodge the Rosemary's cook whenever we can," was the answer; and with this bit of information Adams went his way to the Denver sleeper. Finding Winton in his section, poring over a blue-print map and making notes thereon after the manner of a man hard at work, Adams turned back to the smoking compartment. Now for Mr. Morton P. Adams the salt of life was a "joke, harmless or otherwise, as the tree might fall. So, during the long afternoon which he wore out In solitude there grew up in him a keen desire to see what would befall if these two whom he had so protesquely misrepresented each to the other" should come together in the pathway of acquaintanceship. Adam* well enough to make allowances for his—for his—" He broke down plteoiisly and she had to come to his assistance. "For his imagination?" she suggested. "I do, indeed; we are quite old friends." Here was "well enough," but Wilton was a man and could not let it alone. "I should be very sorry to have you think for a moment that I would—er -^8o far forget myself," he' went on, fatuously. "What I had tn mind was an exchange of seats with him. 1 thought it would be pleasanter for you; that is, I mean, pleasanter for—" He stopped short, seeing nothing but a more hopeless Involvement ahead; also because he saw signs of distress or of mirth flying In the brown eyes. "Oh, please!" she protested, In mock humility. "Do leave my vanity just the tiniest little cranny to creep out of, Mr. Winton. I'll promise to be good and not bore you too desperately." At this, as you would Imagine, the pit of utter self-abasement yawned for Winton, and he plunged headlong, holding the bill-of-fare wrong side up when the waiter asked for his dinner order, and otherwise demeaning himself like a man taken at a hopeless disadvantage. But she had pity on him. "But let's Ignore Mr. Adams," she went on, sweetly. "I am much more Interested in this," touching the billof- fare. "Will you order for me, please? I like—" When she had finished the list of her likings, Winton was able to smile at his lapse into the primitive, and gave the dinner order for two with a fair degree of coherence* After that they got on better. Winton knew Boston, and next to the weather Boston was the safest and most fruitful of the commonplaces. Nevertheless, it was not immortal; and Winton was just beginning to cast about for some other safe riding road for the shallop of small talk when Miss Carteret sent it adrift with malice aforethought. It was somewhere between the entrees and the fruit, and the point of departure was Boston art. "Speaking of art, Mr. Winton, will you tell me how you came to think of sketching in the mountains of Colorado at this time of year?. I should think the cold would be positively pro- ED OF THE DUMA C R U S H * * T H E GRAND D U K M f THIEVERY.

"That is a damaging admission, is it not? I am sorry to have to make it —to have to confirm your poor opinion of me." "Did I say anything like that?" she protested. "Not in words; but your' eyes said it, and I know you have been thinking it all along. Don't ask me how I know it; I couldn't explain it if I should try. But you have been pitying me, in a way—you know you have." The brown eyes were downcast. Frank and free-hearted after her kind as she was, Virginia Carteret was finding it a new and singular experience to have a man tell her baldly at their first meeting that he had read her inmost thought of him. Yet she would not flinch or go back. "There is so much to be done in the world, and so few to do the work," she pleaded in extenuation. "And Adams has told you that I am not one of the few? It is true enough to hurt." She looked him fairly in the eyes, "What is lacking, Mr. Winton—the spur?" "Possibly," he rejoined. "There is no one near enough to care, or to say: 'Well done!'" "How can you tell?" she questioned, musingly. "It is not always permitted to us to hear the plaudits or the hisses—happily, I think. Yet there are always those standing by who are ready to cry *Io trlumphe!' and mean it, when one approves himself a good soldier." The coffee had been served, and Winton sat thoughtfully stirring the lump of sugar In his cup. Miss Carteret was not having a monopoly of the new 'experiences. For instance, it had never before happened to John Winton to have a Woman, young, charming, and altogether lovable, read him a lesson out of the book of the overcomers. He smiled inwardly and wondered what she would say if she could know to what battle-field the drumming wheels of the ''Limited" were speeding him. Would she be loyal to her mentorship and tell him he must win, at whatever the coat to Mr. Somervllle Darrah &Rd Uis business associates? 1 Or would she, woman-like, be her uncle's partisan and write one John Winton down in her blackest book for daring to oppose the Rajah? He assured himself it would make no jot of difference if he knew. He had a thing to do. and he was purposed to do it strenuously, inflexibly. Yet in th3 inmost chamber of his heart, where the barbarous ego stands unabashed and isolate and recklessly i contemptuous of the moralities minor and major he saw the birth of an influence which must henceforth be desperately reckoned with. Given a mime, this new-born factor was love; love barely awakened, and yet no more than a masterful desire to stand well in the eye of one woman. None the less, he saw the possibilities; that a time might come when! firms have been carrying on privately this woman would have the power to :' special departments in their factories intervene; would make him hold< his .1 v,'ner»? chemists were employed to scim *:": V / It has been learned that the immediate cause of the duma's dissolution was the great fear felt by the grand dukes and high court officials, including Gen. Trepoff, that the duma was about to prosecute an inquiry into their official robberies of the public treasury. The navy waa to have*been the first subject of the duma's thorough investigation, and proofs were already in the representatives' hand3 that Grand Duke Alexis, thejoaval commander-inchief, and his intermediaries had received enormous fortunes in brifec* from foreign shipbuilders. ' ^ Admiral Nitof and Admiral Binilet, the present minister of marine, h a t * been confederates of Grand- Duke Alexis in his huge steals. In every case first-class material has been paid for by the treasury, but third-class stuff was furnished by the contractort and the grand duke and his creatures pocketed the difference. Members of the duma had learned that this barefaced thievery had continued for years. , The duma had scented a scandal still more malodorous—that 75 per^ cent of the national sabeeriptfcm *• rebuild the fleet has been p*4d inter the private office of Grand Doke Alexander Michaelorttch, and that BO accounts had been obtained vouching for its expenditure. At one time this grand duke was a close ally of Count Witte, but they quarreled, and it was stated openly in the duma that they were at daggers' points over the division of the spo:ls. No Russian official, however highly placed, is believed to be free frpni participation in the corrupt practice* which the duma was tracing. Vladimir, the czar's uncle, has bee*. the chief corruptionist of the Imperial band. The duma has positive information that six months after the war with Jp.pan began he transferred more than $35,000,000 to bankers in London, Paris, Berlin and New York. In a woiu, evidence was accumulating so rapidly and was so appalling in character that the court party foresaw their irretrievable ruin, for the duma intended to demand restitution. h} Germany Adulterates. German food adulteration is the SV.'J* ject of a report received by the bureau of manufacturers from Consul Brittain, of Kehl. Dr. Jackenack, of Berlin, states that there were in Germany, in lS^S, 1,400 prosecutions for adulterating food products: in 1898 the number had increased to 3.000; in 1901 to 3,586 and in 100:1 to 6.000.

He is an 'Industry -colonel,' isn't he? He looks it." The Bostonian avenged himself for the Interruption at Winton's expense. "So much for your woman's Intuition," he laughed. "Speaking of Idlers, there is your man to the dotting of the '1;' a dilettante raised to the nth power." MlEs« Carteret's short upper lip •curled In undisguised scorn. "I like men * h o do things," she asserted, with pointed emphasis; whereupon the talk drifted eastward to Bos Vlrc^U, »avia« ii&witidUl re» But how to bring them together was a problem which refused to be solved until chance pointed the way. Since the "Limited" had lost another hour during the day, there was a rush for the dining car as soon as the announcement of it3 taking on had gone through the train. Adams and Winton were of this rush, and so were the members of Mr. Somervllle Darrah's party. In the seating the party was separated, as room at the crowded tables could be found;, and Miss Virginia's young man with steadfast gray eyes and a Van Dyck beard. Winton was equal to the emergency, or thought he was. Adams was still within call, and he beckoned him, meaning to propose an exchange of seats. But the Bostonian misunderstood willfully. "Most happy, I'm sure/', he said, coming instantly to the rescue. "Miss Carteret, my friend signals his dilemma. May I present him?" -Virginia smiled and gave the required permisstap in a word. But for ton, « a 4 Wlntt* *ra» Ignored wrtil W n t o n sett-iwssssstea a e * shrtrtma. •Ah—er-J *rti» r&u Irfiow Mr' is hibitlve of anything like that." Winton stared—open mouthed, It to be feared. "I—I beg your pardon," he stammered, with the inflection which takes its pitch from blank bewilderment. Miss Virginia was happy. Dilettante he might be, and an unhurabled man of the world as well; but, to use«*Reverend Billy's phrase, she could make him "sit up." "I beg yours, I'm sure," she said, demurely. "I didn't know it was a craft secert." Winton looked across the aisle to the table where the technologlan was sitting opposite a square-shouldered, ruddy-faced gentleman with fiery eyes and fierce white mustache, asd shook a figurative fist. "I'd like to know-what Adams has been telling you," he said. "Sketching In the mountains in midwinter? that would be decidedly original, to say the least of It.

Tommy, how many legs has the cat?" "Four," replied Tommy, proudly conscious of rectitude. "Yes, and, Daisy, what else has the cat?" "Claws an' tail," murmured Daisy, shyly. Various other portions of feline anatomy were ascertained and finally the instructress turned to one of the latest acquisitions to the kindergarten and said, sweetly: "Now, Mary, can you tell me whether the cat has fur or feathers?"

W, Crofoot [Original.] Left without a protector when I was but a girl, I was provided for by an aunt, who proposed to give me un education whereby 1 might earn a living. She died when 1 was half through college, and I was obliged to work my Way for the last two years there. 1 was bright enough to lead my elass' from start to iinish and on being graduated had no difficulty In finding a teacher's position. Ambitious and determined (o make teaching a stepping stone to the acquisition of wealtli through the opportunities it might offer, I accepted a position of governess to the children of a retired multimillionaire, Mr. Mortimer. He spent his time at his home in the country on an estate of many thousand acres. His older boys were being titted for college by a tutor, Edmund Winston, young, handsome, intellectual. Mr. Mortimer had also placed Winston in charge of any valuables there might be in the house, intrusting him with tbe combination to the vault that had been built for their safe keeping. I was rather surprised at this, for Winston, though thoroughly honest, seemed to me to lack that shrewdness necessary to such a guardianship. One day Winston was carrying a gem to the safe and, meeting me In the hall, showed it to me. It was a very large sapphire. 1 asked him its value, and he told me it would be a fortune to any but a millionaire. I was not, as some women would have been, attracted by its beauty, but its value made me very desirous to possess It. People have wondered that I, blessed with an education, should have yielded to a dishonest craving. It was the conquest of a problem that moved me. I longed to overcome matter with mind. The sapphire was protected by steel that I Id not break through. It was for me enter the safe by mental process. In r words, the door must be opened for me. In place of drills and dynamite I must use whatever power of influence I possessed for this purpose. Winston must be my instrument. - It was not long before I felt that 1 had inspired the tutor with sufficient confidence in my honesty to trust me in a case of necessity. Though I tried in •very way to fascinate him, I felt that I had failed, not because he saw through my design, but because I had no heart to warm his own and was driven to attract him through the intellect, which is cold as the steel bolts that protected the sapphire. Nevertheless it was a weakness1 induced by this very intellect that I relied upon—a preoccupation upon higher things than guarding an inorganic substance. One day It was announced that an older daughter of Mr. Mortimer by a former wife was coming home from Europe and her father was to go to meet her on the arrival of the steamer. I laid a plan to possess my sapphire. I wrote Winston in a disguised hand a note purporting to come from a lawyer who pretended to have found a valuable piece of real estate that had belonged to Winston's ancestors, the title of which had reverted to him. The lawyer must see him at once and be commissioned to attend to the matter or the opportunity would be lost. I fixed the day of meeting the same as the expected arrival of the steamer. On the"morning of Mr. Mortimer's departure Winston came to me and told me that he, too, must be absent for a couple of days. I suggested that if Mr. Mortimer* who expelled, thiil his custodiaii would never lea\%* fcis post, should wish for anything in the vault during the time they were both absent Winston would be blamed. After some deliberation he decided to lenve the combination with me. At first I declined to accept the responsibility, but soon consented. I promised him that in case the safe must be opened I would act for him. 1- Of course I must be known as the thief. There wus no hope of escape from that. My plan was to disguise myself so that no one would know me and go to some far eastern country with my possession. In the evening just before the lamps were lighted I weut to the vault, opened the door, found the sapphire—I wouldn't take anything more bulky—closed the vault and went to my room. There I made up as a woman of fifty. Placing my hand on the doorknob to leave, I felt my finger tips tingle with horfroj^- It was I>cked. Darting to an unteroom, I found the door leading from it into the hall also locked. Then I knew I was a prisoner. If I could only get rid of the sapphire I could not be convicted of the theft— at least so I supposed. I weut to the window and saw a man on guard. I exercised my Ingenuity to find a way to part with the stone, but there was no way. The next afternoon my door was opened, and a girl of twenty came in. She was the returned daughter, Helen Mortimer. She had the appearance of one to the manner born and looked at me with kindly eyes. What she said to mej._cjoul<L no more repeat_aji. the spoke It than I could give fts effect. 1 handed her the sapphire, which was her property, and told her that I was prepared to expiate my crime. "It is in my power," she said, "to buy many things that I dp not want, and there are things that I want I cannot buy. I am going to try to buy an estimable life. Keep the sapphire and in exchange give me tbe satisfaction of having produced a perfect honesty." From that time till she married Mr. Winston I was her inseparable companion Then I left her to take an im- j porta at educational position.

Breaking the seal, he read: "When, my dear son, you receive the shock in store for you contained in this paper I shall be removed from any reproaches you may feel like casting upon me. I have always intended to tell you what I am telling you now, but as you grew older and our wealth increased I shrank from doing so. Know now, my son, that the father whom you have always loved and reverenced was once a common tramp. My father would make a farmer of me or apprentice me to a tradesman, I had no fancy for either occupation. What I was^flt ted for was then not a p p a r e n t r a n d the result w a s that I was considered fitted for nothing, and this was partly my own opinion. One day, frenzied at the restraint and humdrum life of a saddler's apprentice, I broke away from him and became a tramp. "One night I was stealing—I wish I could use some other word—a ride under a car on an express train, when the breaks were applied suddenly and the train came to a quick stop. I heard several shots ahead and surmised that the train had been held up by robbers. I was under the front end of the smoking car. Behind were the passenger | cars, next before me was the baggage ' and express car and next the locomotive. Two men, whom I could see by 1 the dim light were masked; passed rap- j idly from the front to the rear cars. I ; let myself down and ran into the woods i close beside the track. The ground j was higher on that side, and, going j forward, I could look right into the lo- j eomotive. "The engineer was lying dead on the cab floor. A masked man stood between cab and tender, leaning out and looking backward. Two men came for- i ward, and I heard them tell their own ! engineer that the express agent had ' been too quick for them and had lock-J ed the doors of the car. Tbe engineer, | who seemed to be their leader, swore j at them and, pointing to a pile of ties [ beside the track, told them to take one of them and burst open the door. Seizing a tie, they began to batter a t the docT,^e"engteeer-^v4ttehing--them from ( the cab impatiently. It was plain to | me that he wished to go and do the j work himself, but dared not leave the cab. Presently his patience gave way and with a smothered growl he jumped down and ran to them. "Then it occurred to me that were I in his place I could not restrain myself from doing Just what he did. I saw an opportunity for me to save tbe express car, If I could uncouple the car and get Into the cab I might run it off before they could stop me. It was a slim chance, for even If I got the car uncoupled unobserved and started the locomotive they had only to go half a car's length to get'on-the cab, kill me and turn off the steam. The danger only made the plan more fascinating to me. Within a few seconds all these things passed through my brain, and my resolution was formed. "Sliding down the Incline, I got under the express car on the opposite side from that on which the men were working, though by this time they were at the rear door. I ran along beside the car and stopped under the very platform on which they were operating. Fortunately I was familiar with my position. Just as I came beneath them they drew, back for another blow with the tie, which, by the way, was hard to work between the two cars, aud when they pushed forward I reached up and- Relzod the coupling pin. "Now, if cars had been coupled then as they are now, it would have been. Impossible for me to separate them. Had the coupling pin been held by their being jammed together or pulled too. far apart, thls^Akfl. sould. have blocked my game. V,';; • '....,; geiog on above 1 could not know whether the pin was loxse or tight till I tried it. My heart stood still as, taking advantage of the thickest of th<? turmoil, I reached up iind was overjoyed that I could remove It easily. • "Now came the second part of my plan. Dashing forward. I climbed to the cab, threw back the reverse lever and as gently as 1 could opened the throttle. My next move was to look for a weapon. There were Iron coal rakes in the tender, aud I grasped one of them. Tt was Impossible that the robbers should be unaware of the movement of the express car for rmy considerable time. I stood with one hand on the throttle, the other grasping the ?oal rake, my eyes watching my rear. Presently ' the engineer came running forward. I cowered in the cab, where be couldn't see me. He had his revolver In his hand as he came up, but, quick is a flash, I raised the coal rake and brought it down on Ids skull. He was good pluck and climbed into the cab trying to shoot me, but it was hard for htm to climb and shoot at the same time. H e got into the cab, but slipped at his last step and fell. I gave him another blow that finished him. "I grabbed his revolver, and in the nick of time, for the robbers had broken into the express car, and, one of them, passing through it, climbed over the rear of the teuder. I shot him with the engineer's revolver. The third man was overpowered by the express and baggage agents. "I had saved a hundred thousand dollars. The company offered me a large reward, but I asked in preference that they would educate me for a railroad man. They did so, advancing b e rapidly till I am a t this writing, as foil know, the road's president." S. HUNTER HALSEY.

A young man of ability and great promise recently refused to enter a vocation which would yield him a large lncpme, lest the temptation to become rich might eat up his desire tu help Els" fellow men. He feared that the frantic struggle for wealth and self being waged by the majority of men with whom his position would force him U" associate would insensibly tiruw him into the same vortex of selfishness. II. felt that his ideals would beeome t:iv nished, that his aspirations won!l in starved in such an atmosphere., and s/ he chose n vocation which would ei. able him lo render the greatest serviet to humanity. It is a refreshing thing in a material age to see people who are ambitious to be useful rather than rich, who art more eager to help others than to make money. These are nature's noblemen; these are the characters which enrich life and which have pushed civilization up from the savage to the Florence Nightingales and the Lincolns. One of the most prottlsiug things about our civilization today is that, side by side with the greed for gold, is the ever growing passion of humanity for good. The number of people who prefer to be useful to their fellow men rather than to make money is constantly increasing. This passion for good is the salt of humanity; it is what makes us believe in the future of the race.—Success. The Webster Farmers' Club will I meet with Mr. «.nd A \hs. J .

Chesterton's "Heretics" contuim»-some-of his kpenes^and-moaiamusing writing. Of great men he observes: "The tirst rate great man is equal with other men, like Shakespeare. The second rate great man is on his" knees' to other men, like Whitman. The third rate great man Is superior to other men, like Whistler," In the following there may be discovered as much truth as humor: "The artistic temperament is a disease that atltiets amateurs. It is a disease which arises from men not having sufficient power of expression to utter and get rid of the element of art in their being. It is healthful to every sane man to utter tbe art within him; it is essential to every sane manr to get rid of the art within him at all costs. Artists of a large and wholesome vitality get rid of their art easily, but 1n artists of less force the thing becomes a pressure and produces a definite pain, which is called the artistic tempera ment. Thus very great artists are able to be ordinary men—men like Shakespeare or Browning. There are many real tragedies of tbe artistic temperament, tragedies of vanity or violence or fear, but the great tragedy of tbe ar« tistic temperament is that it cannot produce any art.

THE PLATFORM AND GENERAL FEATURES. **&' & * • ' • > The Republican state convention was held in the Light Guard Armory, Detroit, on Tuesday to nominate state officers and transact the usual convention business. There was no inharmony, no objections to any candidates, no scrambles for place and all was done in harmony and unanimity. The preliminaries ot tiie night before showed that there would be nothing to delay the proceedings and there was not. The convention was called to order by Chairman Diekema and prayer was offered by Rev. Mac. H. Wallace. T h e delegates were welcomed by Mayor Codd. Representative Fordney, of Saginaw, was chosen temporary chairman, and made a lengthy address. Committees were appointed and a recess taken till 1:30 p. m. At the afternoon session speeches were made by Governor Warner, P. H. Kelley, candidate for lieutenant governor; Senator Burrows and others. The governor's address embraced these points: As a summary of two years of close observation, he expressed the conviction that there never was a time when the people watched as carefully and interestedly the conduct of public affairs and when officials generally were more responsive to public sentiment. In an inventory of the accomplishments of his administration, he frankly admitted that some of the 1,020 acts of the legislature to which he had given his assent had proven a disappointment. One of these was the law making changes of venue mandatory. Another was the law limiting to de pendent relatives thw right of action against those responsible for death or injury caused by carelessness or neglect. Another was the Galbraith law permitting manipulation under the guise of "equalizing values" in fixing the railroad rate of taxation. Its passage, however, had the advantage of resulti n g In a judicial determination of an important question. Divers grounds for Republican optimism were outlined and satisfaction with the primary law and he expressed gratitude for the honor of being the first beneficiary under its operation. Correction of defects in that law were .recommended. General legislation for the.more effit i e n t regulation of corporations was also recommended. The Nominees. The candidates for governor and lieutenant governor having been nominated at the June primaries, the Uck- .et was completed by the unanimous 'Choice of the convention for all the other places and is here given: For Governor—Fred.

The committee on resolutions received this one from William Alden Smith: Resolved, ThatJtftfs convention favors the nomination1 of candidates by direct vote of the peotye. \ There was ag-mp .flfacuaalon which ended by a compromise and the com- J U I U < { made this report which was DAZED WITH PAIN. The Sufferings of a Citlaen of Olympia, Wash, unanimously adopted and so became the platform of the party: \Ve, the representative Republicans of Michigan, in convention assembled, unreservedly and cordially indorse the patriotic, courageous and aggressive administration of President Roosevelt. We admire him as the embodiment,of the high ideals of the Republican party, for his insistence upon adequate and efficient railroad legislation, and for his demands that the welfare and interests of the people shall be first considered, regardless of selfish promptings and of the organized protests of greed and power. Under his administration the enforcement of law has been prompt and impartial, recognizing neither position nor station in dealing with violators and in urging the requirements of justice. We are glad to give voice to the high appreciation on the part of the Republicans of Michigan for the splendid work of the fifty-ninth congress, and to the Michigan members of that body, for their legislation of the last session. In our judgment the declarations of President Roosevelt that no congress in the last quarter of a century has accomplished so much good for the whole people of the United States, Is a just tribute to the wisdom and patriotism of the Republican majority of.that body. The prosperity of our state at the present time and through recent years surpasses all former records made.by our own or any other nation since civilization began. This prosperity has1 been.and is being shared by the worki n g m e n and the farmer, by the merchant and the manufacturer, and by all men and women who make up the great body of the American producers and consumers. These conditions -illustrate again, as they have so happily in other periods of American history, the practical value of Republican policies and Republican principles, as established in Republican laws and applied by Republican administrations We emphatically affirm our continued belief in the wisdom of the Republican protective tariff policy. Whatever changes in tariff- schedules may be-, come necessary should be so made as to preserve the Republican principle or' protection aud to aid the further advancement of American industry and achievement. As Michigan Republicans, as well as in.our.pwn capacity as delegates represent ing\ the working forces of ourparty \QJHH sections of the state, wo are most glad to give cordial indorsement to the renomination of Gov. Fred, M. Warner, as the Republican candidate for governor, already made by 55,000 Republican votes, In every feature of his official course as governor of Michigan has Fred. M. Warner fulfilled the promises made by himself to the people of this state and made in his behalf by those who knew him to be courageous, oonest and true. He has assisted in the enactment of laws which he believed were desired by a majority of the people and has aa vigorously opposed other enactments, the purposes of which he deemed undesirable. He has familiarized hlmsell with the status and needs of our state institutions, and with sincere regard for their growth and advancement, has successfully urged the greatest possible economy and care. The people of Michigan know Gov. Warner, and their knowledge of his qualities as an official and of his character as a man will lead them to elect him as his own successor in November by an overwhelming majority. We also heart ily ratify and approve the nomination of the Hon. Patrick H. Kelley as the Republican candidate for lieutenant governor. We indorse the admlnistra tion of state affairs by all of the state officers and believe their records will result in their election by overwhelming majorities. We commend the last legislature for its efficiency and success in tha disposition of matters of state importance; for Its practical economy in pro viding^for state expenditures and for its fulfillment of its promises made tc the people of the state by our party We believe that the action of that body in the inactment of a primary election law, which Is giving the peo pie of this state an opportunity to enter upon the practical test of the il rect nomination system, was a generous fulfillment of our party's promises and is an assurance that in such details as may be found necessary thai law will be so perfected as to as fully a3 possible meet the best purposes it seek*s to attain. We heartily approve the action taken by Gov. Warner In appointing a delegation of distinguished citizens to represent the state at the Iowa convention to be held In September next. We earnestly recommend tc those delegates that they direct their effort* to the end that the people of the United States so amend the cpnstfc tution of the United States as to permit tbe election of United States senators by direct vote of the people..

Truth never runs around asking people to believe it. Alas, that fools are prosperous. Is it their penalty or reward? How many of us in listening to the tomtoms forget the violins? To think an original thought is to take a step* nearer the divine. People who need to be continually propped up are not worth the prop. When men become suddenly good they should bo executed immediately. It is easier for some people to believe the impossible than the possible. Before it was thrown down, the Golden Calf had a son. and it is still mooing around the world. It is self-evident that to successfully fathom the motives of men one must be a man himself. To an idiot —to a lunatic—ail men are either idiots .'Or lunatics. • PHYSICIAN SAYS Children Thrive on Grape Nuts and Cream. A Mass. physician has found a cure for constipation in children — citing fifteen cases—by feeding them Grape- Nuts. "Some time ago," he writes, ' I became interested J n your food, Grape- Nuts, as a cure for constipation in children. Having tried it in my own family, I have advised it in fifteen lng blocks laid in Flemish bond. The roofs consist of semi-glazed red Spanish tile. The first story contains entering lobby, general waiting room, ladies' parlor, smoking room and lavatories; in the southeast corner of the main building a lunch room has been provided, and the northeast corner is occupied by the baggage room. A wide veranda connects the main building with the express building. The second story contains offices, etc. The building is perfectly heated, ventilated and lighted. It is one of the finest 'depots of its size In the country. A thing ceases to be a luxury after we have money enough to afford It.

T-he-xe^-struetion is of-Maine granite~and-^avsult has been absolute relief in all. "I write this that other children may be benefited." How much better it is thus to bring about a healthy action in the bowels of growing children by natural means, than to feed them with improper food, requiring some kind of cathartic at intervals to overcome constipation. Grape-Nuts gives energy to the entire nervous system including the nerves that cause the natural contraction/ and relaxation of the bowel muscles, that propel the food mass along. It is predigested also, and the blood easily absorbs the food as it goes through the body, storing up vitality and force for the functions of all the organs. Children especially, should get the right start as to habits of living. They should grow Into bright, strong, cheerful men and women. Grape-Nuts solve the question of the s t a r t ; a wholesome appetite-will do t h e rest.. Children's teeth are benefited by chewing Grape-Nuts, also. Your dentist will tell you t h a t a certain amount of exercise in chewing firm food, Is necessary to grow strong, beaupful teeth. Teeth need exercise just the same as muscles, If they are to grow strong and firm a s nature intended. Grape-Nuts give* the exercise and also gives material from which good teeth are made.

The sores extended so quickly over the whole body that we at once called in the doctor. We then went to another doctor, but be could not help him, and in our despair we went to a third one. Matters became so bad that he had regular holes in his cheeks, large enough to put a finger into. The food had to be given with a spoon, for his mouth was covered with crusts as thick as a finger, and whenever he opened the mouth they began to bleed and suppurate, as did also his eyes. Hands, arms, chest and back, in short the whole body was covered over and over. We had no rest by day or night. Whenever he was laid in his bed, we had to pin his bands down; otherwise he would scratch his face and make an open sore. I think his face must have Itched most fearfully. "We finally thought nothing could help, a a 4 1 had made up 4ay~mInd_jQ send my wife with the child to Europe, hoping that the sea air might cure him, otherwise he was to be put under good medical care there. But, Lord be blessed, matters came differently, and we soon saw a miracle. A friend of ours spoke about Cuticura. We made a trial with Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Resolvent, and within ten days or two weeks we noticed a decided improvement. Just as quickly as the sickness had appeared it also began to disappear, and within ten weeks the child was absolutely well, and his skin was smooth and white as never before. F.

The new world language, Esperanto, seems to have already won more advocates than the older Volapuk. No manufactured language, however, seems to have much chance in competition with English, which long ago displaced French as the most useful and widely spoken language and which is gaining faster than ever in all parts of the world. Quite recently the German government has ordered that all railway officials and employes mu3t learn to speak English. In Antwerp also the authorities are urging all classes to study English and are providing special facilities in the public schools; the city has become "almost an English-speaking port." In Japan all school children are now obliged to learn our language. A few years hence tourists from this country will be able to get along there as ,easlly as on a trip at home. With Great Britain, India, Australia, Canada, the United States- and large sections of Africa using English, what hope is there for any other -language? New Depot at Battle Creek. The Grand Trunk Railway System has just completed and opened a new passenger station at Battle Creek.

Special station tracks accommodate waiting trains independent o f the regular main line tracks, and the approaches to the building, together with ample platforms, are so designed as to handle the greatest number of passengers with ease.

The following letter is only one of many thousands "which are on file in the Pinkham office, and pro to prove beyond question t h a t Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound must be a remedy of great merit, otherwise it could not produce such marvelous results among sick and ailing women. Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— "About nine months ago I was a great sufferer with female trouble, which caused me severe pain, extreme nervousness and fre- ?iuent headaches, from which the doctor ailed to relieve me. I tried Lydia E. Pink-, ham's Vegetable Compound, and within a short time felt better, and after taking five bottles of it I was entirely cured. I therefore heartily recommend your Compound as a splendid female tonic. It makes the monthly periods regular and without pain; and what a blessing it is to find such a remedy after so many doctors fail to help you. I am pleased to recommend it to all suffering women."— Mrs. Sara Wilson, 81 East Sd Street, Cincinnati, Ohio.

Farm laborers are wanted in ever} part of the state of Michigan and iq eastern Canada, and the demand is insistent and pressing. Farmers are having the greatest difficulty in getting enough help In all parts of the state and are offering wages much higher than usual in order to attract men. The situation in many sections of the state is so sevlous ihkLjvomejv und children are working in the harvest fields and there is hardly a couuty that has anything like a full supply of help. The general prosperity of the country, which insures work for everyone; the heavy demand for laborers iu western Canada and in the western states, and the usual demand for extra men at this season of the year for the gathering of the crops, has resulted In this unusual shortage of farm help. All the employment offices In Detroit that make a specialty of supplying farm help say that farmers are continually sending in for men from all parts of the state, especially from central Michigan, and that they are offering wages much higher than many of them can really afford to pay. Comparatively few men are applying for jobs. At the Central Employment Agency it was said that they have places for a thousand men open in Canada and Michigan, and that farmers are paying $25 a month with board, arid in many cases more for good men. But few men are applying for positions on farms. Great Boost in Valuations. A material Increase In assessed valuations in the state is looked for when the board of equalization meets In Lansing Aug. 20. The state tax commission, in making the first assessment of the railroad properties under the Galbraith law, estimated the value of the property at an increase of $300,000,000 over the equalized value of $1,578,000,000 in August, 1901. This would apparently indicate that, the total valuation will be. boosted to near the two billion dollar mark. Representatives from nearly every county in the state are expected to attend the sessions, which will probably last 10 days. Lower peninsula counties are expected to attempt to boost the equalization of upper peninsula counties producing mineral wealth. Increased valuations are expected in the prosperous cities.

Attorney General Bird advises the state tax commission that they cannot assume authority to review all assessments of an assessing district when complainants are made that a fow specified pieces of property ave not usjessed in compliajice with law. He gives the opinion, however, that complaints may be made broad enough to suttroTfoe such £ review^ Complaints of persons not taxpayers and residents of the district in which a_ review of the assessments artsought should not be entertained bj the commission.

WHAT JOYTHEY BRING TO EVERY HOME as with jcyous hearts and smiling faces they rcmp and play—when in health—and how conducive to health the games in which they indulge, the outdoor life they enjoy, the cleanly, regular habits they should be taught to form and the wholesome dieToi which they strouM-partake. How tenderly their health should be preserved, not by constant medication, but by careful avoidance of every medicine of an injurious or objectionable nature, and if at anytime a remedial agent is required, to assist nature, only those of known excellence should be used; remedies which are pure and wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, like the pleasant laxative remedy, Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. Syrup of Figs has come into general favor in many millions of well informed fami3ies,,..whose estimate of its quality and excellence is based upon personal knowledge andi use. Syrup of Figs has also met with the approval of physicians generally, because they know it is wholesome, simple and gentle in its action. We inform all reputable physicians as to the medicinal principles of Syrup of Figs, obtained, by an original method, from certain plants known to them to act most beneficially and presented in an agreeable syrup in which the wholesome- Californian blue figs are used to promote the pleasant taste; therefore it is not a secret remedy and hence we are free to refer to all well informed physicians, who do not approve of patent medicines and never favor indiscriminate self-medication. Please to remember and teach your children also that the genuine Syrup of Figs always has the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.—plainly printed on the front of every package and that it is for sale in.bottles "of one size only. If any dealer offers any other than the regular Fifty cent size, or having printed thereon the name of any other company, do not accept it. If you fail to get the genuine you will not get its beneficial effects. Every family should always have a bottle on hand, as it is equally beneficial for the parents and the children, whenever a laxative remedy is required. * © e • o • • • • Ancestry of Dion Boucicault.

D o w memory brightens as we recall ex* jterieu*:e*i of the past, and what tt. privilege is ours to hsive lived in this d a y and age of the world with it« vast amount of progress ou every liatui; and how greatly are we indebted to the sturdy pioneers who early laid the foundation for success for the generations following. Let us pause and pay a tribute to their memory. There is something chilling in that sad, inevitable word the " p a s t , " notwithstanding that in looking through the thronged pages of history, we read of the myriads who had the same hopes and ambition as ourselves, a n d j v h o are now but dust, yet the very indistinctness of distance softness and beautifies the seene upon which which we look hack and see in the d«ys gone by a thousand bright spots standing out to catch the last rays of the sun that has long set on those noble men and women who labored and struggled Mgaiust mighty odds to make a garden spot in the. wilderness ami lay the corner s t o n e , of a home for themselves and those who were to follow after. ''This is tbe forest primeval" might truthfully have been said by the pioneers as they viewed the undisturbed tract of Woodland which was to be their future camping ground. Shall we say they were in error to have made Piuckney and vicinity their destination? N o t a tree felled, not a rod ot' underbrush removed, verily it required a vast amount of courage to begin life in the wilderness. It looks to usJike an herculean task as we look back over the decades of years, a task full of unsurmountable difficulties, but it is said that individuals arise to tit. the needs of the occasion (except in the Democratic Party) and the early settlers were the men for conquering the wilderness and making it to "blossom as the rose," making the soil to yield its best crops and _ : _ >. j n every manner bringing forth results A u g u s t 2 1 a n d 2 2 t h e A n n A r b o r J worthy their h e . o i c deeds.

DRS KENNEDY & KERGAN 148 Shelby Street, DETROIT, MICH. Charles Lamb and Tobacco. Charles Lamb, according to his own confession, was "a fierce smoker of tobacco." One day when puffing vigorously the coarsest weed from a long clay pipe in company with Dr. Parr the latter asked him how he managed to acquire this "prodigious power." "By toiling after it, as some men toil after virtue," was the prompt reply. As he advanced in years, 'however,. "Eliq" was obliged to relax bis intimacy with the weed, so that, to use his own words, he was "like a burnt out volcano emitting now and tb^en only a casual puff." Eventually b# took his formal leave in a "Farewell Ode to Tobacco," and in forwarding a copy of the poem to Wordsworth he writes. "I bave had it in my head to do it these two years, but tobacco stood in its own light when it gave me headaches that prevented me singing Its praises." There i.s nothing so pleasant as tbat insist, cheerful, at-peace with-tbewc> v\(\ feeling when you sit down to \.rur breakfast. There is nothing so coud-ucive to ^ood work and good results. ' The healthy man with a Leal'by mind and body is a better lellow, a better workman, a better Why Not . Give your heart the same attention you do the other organs?

Ryan! iC al'u *m- et*, , The Platform. The report of the committee on rest)-, lutions, which follows, is the party platform for the campaign: The Democracy of Michigan in convention assembled firmly reasserts its allegiance to the principles of majority rule and pure Democracy, wherein laws are proposed, enacted, and execu- _te_d_for the sole purpose of protecting the interests-©?allTrTe people without favor or special privilege to any class or individual. One: Evils under the form of combinations and trusts, .which have so shocked the moral conscience of the nation in the last few years are a direct outcome of class legislation by the Republican party conferring privileges upon corporations at the expense of the common people. A continuance of such . legislation is now threatened by the many bills of like L. ..... .ci, as lor instance the shii subsidy bill, and inadequate remedial laws enacted by the recent congress, showing that there is* no honest purpose on the part of the Republican party to relieve the people from the evils thus cast upon them by this unjust class legislation. Their affiliations with the classes thus favored make it absolutely impossible to obtain relief from Republican sources. In proof of the uncertainty of the Republican party not affording any relief from these national evils, we have but to refer to their action in rejecting the proposition of Senator La Follette, regarding railroad rate legislation, which, if adopted, would have brought certain relief, and was in perfect accord with the declarations on that subject in the Democratic platform of 1S96. Fully believing In the honesty, integrity and wisdom of William Jennings Bryan, and that under his leadership the people would receive relief from the many ills above referred to, we commend him to the people of the United States as candidate for president in 1908. Two: We favor the nomination of all candidates for office by direct vote of the people and will do everything in' our power to secure legislation directly to that end. We favor the adoption of, such legislation or constitutional amendments as shall provide, viz.: (a) For the election of railroad and tax commissioners by direct vote of the people. (b) We favor home rule, giving to any city, village, county or township the right to decide for itself, subject to the referendum «11 matters of purely local interest, regarding local taxes and the question of owning and operating any given public utility, requiring franchise rights, or granting of franchise for such ownership to a private company. (c) We are in favor of the nomination and ejection of United States seniors by direct vote of the people. (d) We favor the repeal of the so-. ^alled indeterminate sentence law, and estorlng to the judges discretion in ihe punishment of persons convicted jf crime. (e) We are opposed to* a political pardon board and in favor of its abolition.- (f) We reaffirm our faith in popular government by majority vote and piedge ourselves to enact the same by ihe adoption of that principle of pure Democracy, the initiative and referndlum and popular recall. Three: We are in favor of a passenger rate on railroads not exceeding two cents per mile in the southern peninsula of this state and not exceeding three cents per mile in the northern peninsula. Four: We most emphatically declare for the election of delegates to. .he forthcoming constitutional convenrion by non-partisan method and that .iny candidate for delegate may have iiis name as such candidate placed on the official ballot, if a petition by a reasonable number of voters is filed in iiis behalf. The names on the official ballot should be without party or oth* •jr designation. We demand an amendment to the election law by eliminating the cross at the head of the ticket, und in place thereof require placing a cross before the name of each candidate for whom the voter desires to votet Five: We condemn in the most unmistakeable terms, the action of the last legislature in passing the change of venue law, which makes it possible for a litigant upon making a prescribed affidavit without any investigation, as to the truth of the statements therein made^ to have his case transferred to another circuit, thusplacin a premium upon perjury and discomniuding litigants and making the trial of causes a farce. Six: We believe that laws should be "enacted making it a criminal offense for any member of the state legislature, or a state officer, to accept or use free transportation from any railroad or transportation company. » Seven: We denounce the present primary election law as a fraud and sham, and pledge ourselves to enact i primary law simple and workable uul that will not, in its operation deprive any voter of his franchise. Eight: Our state government needs readjustment upon the'llnes of greater economy and better business methods. We urge the voters of Michigan to lay aside party prejudices, to elect members of th\a legislature who are in sympathy with honest primary reform, and the other principles herein enunciated, and to unite with us in electing the state officers nominated at this convention who are pledged to the earnest support of those principles. In this day of increase iu socialist ranks it is of interest to hear what a man of Judge Grosscup's authority may have to say on the subject of socialism. This the judgment: "A doubling back on the road along which the race has come from the days when no man had a hope of his own for an individual part in the destiny of things." Socialism, then, Judge Grosscup thinks, is a, stepping backward. But he makes acknowledgment of present ills, and gives suggestion for dealing therewith; avers that what is needed is not prosecutions of corporations simply because they are big; "what is wanted is the corporation, big and little, so rebuilt that in the vast domain of property covered by it the people, who with their hands have worked may hereafter see their way to participate." The jurist does not think the reforms are to be brought about by act o* congress, but that state legislatures should "lay clean and firm in state law the foundations for the new corporation," and then the people themselves be relied on to look after their interests.'' M . < o n . Judge Grosscup resides in Chicago, since the beginning of the year 1899 has been judge United States circuit court of appeals, Seventh circuit. Among notable judicial acts in his career should be mentioned his opinion anent the application to close the World's Columbian exposition on Sundays; the in junction issued in conjunct4on with Judge William A. Woods against Eugene Debs and other officers of the American Railway Union. Judge Grosscup was born L* Ohio, is 54 years old, was graduated at Wittenberg college, Ohio, and at the Boston Law School. Traced to Ancient Sources. Not a few of the familiar phrases which avoid the use of the word death date far back Into ancient times Cicero said: "He has lived." Seneca put it: "Not lost, but gone before." A third Roman cloak for the hard fact of death was "Abiit ad plures," or "Adiit ad majores" (He has gone to the majority). The authorship of thisfamiliar phra'se cannot be determined, but it is still in common use, often In the form "He has joined -the ma jority." THE GENTLEMAN FROM INDIANA It was the gentleman from Indiana, Hon Albert J. Beverldge, who introduced the agitat ing meat-inspection bill in the senate. Senator Beverldge's name has frequently been beXore the public of late years. His is one of the many instances in this country of rise from obscurity and poverty to place of prom lnence, one of the many instances that serve as inspiration for young America. He was born in Ohio state, that has turned out so many public men. He first saw the lighl of day on a farm, and at the tender age of 12 was put at the task of following the plow. This was in Illinois, his family having moved thithei after the war. Young Beverldge was given sorm schooling, but had to toll laboriously for any thing beyond the little red schoolhouse. Aftei his plowboy experience he led for several years a life of privation; at 14 was a railroad laborer at 15 a logger and teamster. About this time be found himself able to attend high school; latei was enrolled at De Paw university, Indiana, from whkh institution he was; graduated. He read law in the office ot Senator__McDonald, became managing clerk, and finally young Beverldge was member of the law firm of Ma3DohaTd~S Butler. He continued with this firm until starting out for himself. He has been identified with many important law cases. Senator Beverldge is noted as an orator, has won no small fame as Republican campaign speaker. His home being in Indianapolis; he could not well escape the authorship microbe; "The Young Man and the World" bears his name, he is a freauent contributor to the magazines. Drinkiug plenty of cold water night and morning and during the day, and exercising properly, will do this more effectually than most panaceas, which may cure one 111, but leave another more troublesome than the first. Let nature do the work if possible, aided by proper diet and care. Take the deep breathing exercise night and morning before an open window, drinking two glasses of cold water after exercising at night and before the breathing in the morning. Avoid tight clothing. Take an open air walk every afternoon if possible. Bathe daily, using plenty of friction in the water, and dry with a Turkish towel, rubbing the flesh until the blood is brought to the surface. A Turkish bath once or twice a week would prove of benefit. An Ethnological Mystery. On St. Nicholas island, near the south coast of California, explorers have unearthed • the remains of pre* historic giants—seven and a half footers, many of them, and with massive skull bones. Their thick-headedness may have failed to save them from the tomahawks of a Modoc surprise party. One thing only is certain: They did not succumb to atmospheric hardships. The climate is the most pleasant of the North Pacific. Held th« Cofn. A laughaLle incident occurred on a. car in Kalamazoo Tuesday evening. An unknown passenger attempted to> hand the conductor his fare, and asboth men were touching iron they formed a circuit of electricity, so that neither was able to let go of the coin for fully three minutes. They berated each other soundly, each claiming the other was playing a practical joke. Treatment of New Floor. A new floor when waxed must Deleft over night before polishing, but an old- floor may be polished as soon as the wax has been applied all over It. A woolen rag may be used for this purpose, but the best thing is a weighted brush with a long handle. This should be used first across the grain of the wood, then paralle" with it. Beavers Sometimes in Burrows. Contrary to the general opinion thebeaver does not always build a house Tor himself, being content very often with a burrow in the bank of the stream. As is the case with the house The efitranTir~tc— a— -burrow -is under .vater, though sometimes there is an opening from the surface through which brush and sicks- are carried for their food supply. Washing Fluid. Here li a recipe for a good washing fluid. One box potash, one ounce saltl tartar, one ounce pulverized ammonia, one ounce pulverized borax, two quarts boiling water. Af'.cr dissolved add four quarts cold water. Use one cup to boiler of clothes. Keep in jugs or glass jars where it will not freeze and out of the way of children; also keep the children out of the room where it is being made. A Young Old Soldier. William F. Hurlbutt, of Buchanan, is another of the 14-year-olds who shouldered muskets-in defense of their country in* the dark days of '61 and fought side by side with their older comrades to save the union and keep the Stars and StripeB waving over an undivided country. He enlisted as a private in Company B, Ninth Michigan Infantry, on August 12,1861, while he still lacked over Forty days of being 16 yeart old. He was with his regiment from that time until he was discharged January 18, 1864, at Chattanooga, Tenn. When women cry at a wedding it's hard to tell whether It's from sym* jfctby or envy. Killed the Conductor. Conductor "Bud" Stone, aged'21, of Saginaw, was killed by a stab In the leg which severed an artery, the deed being done by Tony Bartello, aged 43, an Italian who sought revenps for a practical joke played on him which he attributed to his- victim. Stone was conductor of a Pere Marquette work train operating near Lowell on which are quartered about 40 Italians, mostly from Detroit, and Bartello was one of these. He became intoxicated, and went to the caboose, where Stone was about to retire, and attacked him. 8tone, after receiving the wound in his leg,, leaped from the car, calling for help, but fell before going far and «j#d In a few moments. ^ 1 r\-"4£-: tt* A U/rJf4wxn Annr>artfno o f a TEN m i m DOLLAR CONCERN is the best assurance you can TT I I l L C l l V F U a l a l l U T C have of the superiority of the COLUMBIA 0R4PH0PH0NE With this guarantee you don't guess, you KNOW which is best ASK YOUR OWN BANKER as to our responsibility and financial standing.

New York: A FOOL FOR LOVE By FRANCIS LYNDE AUTHOR OF "THE G R A F T E R S . " ETC. (Copyright, UK,by 4.P Lipplaoott Co.) CHAPTEB II.—Continued. It was a rather unnerving thought, •»nd when he considered it he was glad (hat their ways, coinciding for the moment, would presently go apart, leaving him free to do battle as an honest soldier in any cause must. The Kosemary party was rising, and Winton rose, too, folding the seat for Mtos Virginia and reaching her wrap ••^i.\tt—i the rack. ^*"; .*'! am glad to have met you," she .-••'•aid, giving "him the tip of her fingers and going back to the conventionalities as if they had never been ignored. But the sincerity in Winton's reply transcended the conventional form of i t "Indeed, the pleasure has been wholly mine, I assure you. I hope the future will be kind to me and let me see moi*e of you." "Who knows?" she rejoined, smiling at him level-eyed. "The world has been steadily growing smaller since Shakespeare called it 'narrow.' " He caught quickly at the straw of hope. "Then we need not say goodb y ? " "No; let It be auf wiedershen," she said; and he stood aside to let her join her party. Two hours later, when Adams was reading In his section and Winton was smoking his short pipe in the men's •compartment and thinking things unspeakable with Virginia Carteret for a nucleus, there was a series of sharp whistle shrieks, a sudden grinding of the brakes, and a jarring stop of the "Limited"—a stop not down on the time-card. 'Winton was among the first to reach the head of the long train. The halt was in a little depression of the bleak plain, and the trainmen were in conference over a badly derailed engine when Winton cme up. A vast herd of cattle wa3 lumbering away into the •darkness, and a mangled carcass ui^der the wheels of the locomotive sufficiently explained the accident. "Well, there's only one thing to do," was the engineer's verdict. "That's for somebody to niog back to Arroyo to wire for the wreck-wagon." "Yes, by gum! and that means all night," growled the conductor. There was a stir in the gathering throng of half-alarmed and ali-curious passengers, and a red-faced, whitemustached gentleman, whose soft southern accent was. utterly at variance with his manner, hurled a question bolt-like at the conductor. ,-, "All night, you say, sen? Then we miss ouh Denver connections.?" "You can bet to win on that," was the curt reply, "Damn!" said the red-faced gentleman; and then In a lower tone: "I beg your pahdon, my deah Virginia; 1 was totally unaware of your presence." Winton threw off his overcoat. "If you will take a bit of help from an outsider, I think we needn't wait for the wrecking car," he said to the dubitant trainmen.. "It's bad, but not as bad as it looks. What do you say?" _... NoWj^as everyone knows, it is not in the nature of operative railway men to brook Interference even of the helpful sort. But they are as quick as other folk to recognize the man In esse, as well as to know the clan slogan when they hear it. Winton did not wait for objections, but took over the command as one In authority. "Think we can't do it? I'll show you. Up on that tank, one of you, and heave down the jacks and frogs. We'll have her on the steel again before .you can say your prayers." At- the hearty command, churlish reluctance vanished and everybody lent a willing hand. In two minutes the ei«w of the "Limited" knew it was working under a master. The frogs (/ere adjusted under the derailed wibels, the jack-screws were braced to Utl and push with the nicest accuracy, and all was ready for the attempt to .**ck the engine in trial. But now the engineer shook his head. "I ain't the artist to move her gently trough with all that string o' dinkeys feer," he said unhopefully. •aid Winton. "Come up into Ith me and 1*21 show you how." limbed to the driver's footboard wKfc the doubting engineer at his heels, !%• reversing-lever went over with a 6lMg; the air whistled into the brakes; • a t Winton began to ease the throttle open. The steam sang into the cylinders, the huge machine trembling like A living thing under the hand of a master. Slowly and by almost imperceptible defy** t i t ?t?$ of the p***-*;* V.**: power crept Into the pistons and out.through the connecting-rods to the wheels. With the first thrill of the gripping tires Winton leaned from the window to watch the derailed trucks climb by half-inches up the Inclined planes of the frogs. At the critical instant, when the entire weight of The forward half of the engine was poising for the drop upon the rails, he gave the precise added impulse. The big ten-wheeler coughed hoarsely and spat fire; the driving-wheels made a quick half-turn backward; and a cheer from the onlookers marked the. little triumph of mind over matter. Winton found Miss Carteret holding his overcoat when he swung down from the cab, and he fancied her enthusiasm Was tempered with something remotely like embarrassment. But she suffered him to walk back to the private car beside her; and in this sudden retreat from the scene of action he missed hearing the comments of his fellow-craftsmen. "You bet, he's no 'prentice," said the fireman. "Not much!" quoth the engineer. "He's an all-'round artist; that's about what he is. Shouldn't wonder if he was the travelin' engineer for some road back in God's country." "Travelin* nothing!" said the Conner first view of the mighty hills to the westward. The temptation to let the telegraphing wait while he went to say good-morning to her was strong, but he resisted It and hastened the more for the hesitant thought. Nevertheless, when he reached the telegraph office he found Mr. Somerville Darrah and his secretary there ahead of him, and he remarked that the explosive gentleman who presided over the destinies of the Colorado & Grand River appeared to be in a more than usually volcanic frame of mind. Now Winton, though new to the business of building railroads for the Utah Short Line, was not new to Denver or Colorado. Hence when the Rajah, followed by his secretarial shadow, had left the office, Winton spoke to the operator as to a friend. "What is the matter with Mr. Darrah, Tom? He seems to he uncommonly vindictive this morning." The man of dots and dashes nodded. "He's always crankier this time than he was the othe;\ He's a holy terror, the Rajah is. 1 wouldn't work on his road for a farm down east—not if my job took me within cussing distance of him. Bet a hen worth $50 he is up in Mr. Colbert's office right now, raising particular sand because his special engine wasn't standing here ready to snatch his private car on the fly, so's to go on without losing headway." Winton's eyes narrowed, and he let his writing hand pause while he said: "So he travels special from Denver, does he?" aOn his own road?^well,' I -should smile. Nothing is to©» good for the Rajah; or too quick, when he happens to be In a hurry. I wonder he didn't have the T. C. pull him special from Kansas City." Winton handed in his batch of telegrams and went his way reflective. chiefly with the major's desire to know when he was to be relieved. But it Winton could have been an eavesdropper behind the door of Superintendent Colbert's office on the second floor of the Union depot, his doubts would have been resolved instantly. The telegraph operator's guess went straight to the mark. Mr. Darrah was "raising particular sand" because his wire order for a special engine had not been obeyed to the saving of the ultimate second of time. But between his objurgations on that score, he was rasping out questions designed to exhaust the chief clerk's store of information concerning the status of affairs at the seat of war. "Will you inform me, seh., why I wasn't wired that this beggahly appeal was going against us?" he demanded, wrathfully. "What's that you say, seh? Do.n't tell me you couldn't know what the decision of the cou't was going to be before it was handed down; that's what you-all are heah for—to find out these things! And what is aU this about Majah Eva'ts resigning, and the Utah's sending east for a professional right-of-way fighteh to take his place? Who is this new man? ? business to know! Now when do you faveh me with my engine?" Thus the Rajah; and the chief clerk, himself known from end to end of the Colorado & Grand River as1 a queller of men, could only point out of the window where the Rosemary stood engined and equipped for the race, and say, meekly: "I'm awfully sorry you've been delayed, Mr. Darrah; very sorry, indeed. But your car is ready now. Shall I go along to be on hand if you need me?" "No, seh!" stormed the irate master; and the chief clerk's face became instantly expressive of the keenest relief. "You stay right heah and see that the wires to Qua'tz Creek are kept open—wide open, seh. And when you get an ordeh from me—for an engine, a regiment of the National Gyua'd, or a trainload of white elephants—you fill it. Do you understand, seh?" Meantime, while this scene was getting itself enacted in the superintendent's office, a mild fire of consternation was alight in the gathering room of the Rosemary. As we have guessed, Winton's packet of mail was not the A FLINT TRAGEDY. The Result of a Drunken Carousal" During the Night, William H. Davis, 29 years old, a member of one of the hfst known families in Flint, ,was drowned at 3 o'clock Thursday morning in the mill race of the Genesee Milling Co., at Flint. The police believe he waa pushed into the water by someone who found him lying asleep on the bank. A town loafer is suspected of rolling him into the water. Freeman Silver, night car Inspector for the Grand Trunk railway, h«ard cries, and on running to the bank saw the body of Davis as it sank for the last time. He says the form of another man was plainly visible near the top of the bank, and that be yelled to him to throw the drowning man a plank. Instead the figure disappeared over the hill. Investigation showed signs of a struggle ^on the bank of the race. The ground was trampled and the grass twisted and mashed into the soft earth. These marks extend down to the very edge of the water, which at this point runs 18 feet deep. Davis and the man suspected were seen together early in the evening Don't know? d a m m i t , seh! it's youjL drinking in several, jaloons and walking down the streets arm IB arm. About 10 o'clock Davis left his companion in a saloon and went home, rejoining him about 12 o'clock. The two men wandered out together, and It is believed went to the bank of the race to sleep. What started the row in the early morning no one knows, but the police theory is that the men spent the night alternately dozing and drinking, and that toward morning they got into a drunken bout which resulted in Davis being thrown into the race. A bottle containing alcohol, found in the trampled grass, seems to bear out this theory. Give the average woman a button »nd Bhe will want a dress to match It THE MARKETS. ductor. "More likely he's a train master 'r p'raps a bigger boss than that. Call in the flag, Jim, and we'll be getting a move." Oddly enough, the comment on Winton did not pause with the encomiums of the train crew. When the "Limited" was once more rushing oh Its way through the night, and Virginia and her cousin were safely in the privacy of their state-room, Miss Carteret added her word. "Do you know, Bessie, I think it was Mr. Adams who scored this afternoon?" she said. "How so?" inquired la petite Bisque, who was too sleepy to be overcurlous. "I think he 'took a rise* out of me, as he puts it. Mr. Winton is precisely all the kinds of a man Mr. Adams said he wasn't." "DON'T KNOW?" What was Mr. Somerville Darrah's "Didn't I see Uncle Somerville chargparticulur rush? Asset forth by Adams, ' ing across to the telegraph office with the plans of the party in the Rosemary ' war written out large in every line contemplated nothing more hasteful j of him?" than a leisurely trip to the Pacific coast "I am afraid you did," affirmed the —a pleasure jaunt with a winter sojourn ; Reverend Billy; and thereupon the „iAn California to lengthen it Why, then, explanation was rehearsed for Virthis sudden change from" "Limited'' ]ginTa's benefit, regular trains to unlimited specials? j T h e brown eyes flashed Was there fresh news from the seat of .sympathy. war in Quartz Creek canyon? Winton f thought not. In that case he wojald have ] had his budget as well; and so far as his C H A P T E R nr. It was late breakfast time when the Transcontinental "Limited" swept around the great curve in the eastern fringe of Denver, paused for a registering moment at "yard limits," and went clattering in over the switches to come to rest at the end of its long westward run on the in-track at the Union depot. Having wired ahead to have his mall only one which was delivered by special arrangement that morning to the incoming 'Limited" at the yard registering station. There had been another, addressed to Mr. Somerville Darrah; and when he had opened it there had been a volcanic explosion and a hurried dash for the telagraph office, as recorded. Sifted out by the Reverend Billy, and explained by him to Mrs. Carteret and Bessie, the firing spark of the explosion appeared to be some news of an untoward character from a place vaguely designated as "the front." "It seems that there is some sort of a right-of-way scrimmage going on up in the mountains between our road and the Utah Short Line," s*aid the young man. "It was carried into the courts, and now it turns out that the decision has gone against us." "How perfectly horrid!" said Miss Bessie. "Now I suppose we shall have to stay, here indefinitely while Uncle j Somerville does things." And placid I Mrs! Carteret addej, plaintively: "It's ! too bad! I think they might let him have one little vacation in peace." "Who talks of peace?" queried Virginia, driven in from her post of vantage on the observation platform by the smoke from the switching engine, Detroit—Good milch cows are bring"* ingr s t e a d y prices with last week, but common g r a d e s a r e dull and h a r d to sell.

'"What I wish," says an essayist In Comhill Muguzlue, "is that people would apply the same sort of seriousness to talk that they apply to guif; that they should desire to improve their game, brood over their mistakes, try to dp better. Why is It that so many people would think it priggish and effeminate to try to improve their talk and yet think it manly and rational to try to shoot better? Of course it must be done with a natural zest and enjoyment or it is useless. "What a ghastly picture one gets of the old fashioned talkers and wits, committing a number of subjects to memory when they are dressing for dinner and then turning over a commonplace book' for apposite anecdotes and jests, ;uldlng datus to those selected that thvy may not tell the same story again too soon, learning up a list of epigrams, stuck in a shaving glass, sallying forth primed to bursting with conversation! "It is all very well to know beforehand the kind of line you would wish to take, but spontaneity is a necessary ingredient of talk, and to make up_ one's mind to get certain stories in is to deprive talk of its fortuitous charm."

His powers wejte much appreciated and trusted and'resulted in his being known as "windy cap."

I have never for* gotten it. A lady called him in to speak to her coachman who had given way to drink and Henry Drummond said he did not like to be called in like this to be asked to argue with people of a sudden and try to cure their souls, but be felt it was a case demanding christian intervention, so he plucked up courage and went ont to talk to the man. He put the problem to him: "Suppose you were driving and your horses ran away down hill and you lost all control over them, what would you do?" "Oh!" aaid the man, "I dould do nothing." "Yes," said Drummond, "but suppose there were someone sitting by you who could control them, what would you'do?" "OhV he said, "I would hand him tbe reins, sir." "Oh," said Drummond. "your life has rnn away with you your appetites and passions and lusts are carrying you down hill and you in your own strength cannot control your life, But man believe me he said there is one at your side stronger than yon who oners to take control of yonr life and make it what it should be. What will you do?" And the man seeing the point said, "Sir, I will give him the reins." Pres. " • ! • * • :t I V .' ft. • V U i f '.V * * * . • !

For some time a gang of men, living in tents, has been catching turtles in the lakes, with bail and trap, shipping them in crates to Philadelphia. It has proven a profitable industry, #but the farmers say that since tbe turtles have gone their stock refuse to drink from the lakes. Turtles are natural scavengers, eating frogs, snakes, dead fish, etc, and their destructson is making the water foul and impure. The farmere, therefore, intend to stop the industry if they can. Parties visit tbe lakesjin this vicinity and the pond in the village annually and take several tons of turtle, shipping them to eastern points.

HOWELL'S BUSI STORE A N e w Record Judge Montage has inaugurated a new system of bonds in the Prob.te Office. The law requires that all bonds in that office should be renewed every five years. When estates run along for some time the bonds are put away in the tiles and their time of running is forgotten. One or two cases have come up when th« rights ot people have been lost because the bonds hsd expired and no new ones had been given. Judge Montague has put in a newTegister in which ail bonds are recorded with the time when they expire. All tbe old files have been gone over and the record brought up it is then comparatively an easy matter as they run from mouth to month, to see what bonds expire and secure their renewals. It was a lot ot work to dig up the files and get the book started but it was a good thing to do. All bonds which have expired since J udge Montague came into office have been renewed and the older ones are now being looked after.—Livingston tidings. S. T. Grimes returned to Topeka, Kan.

Dr. Watkins, ot Howell, who has a cottage at the lake, while assisting a friend on the train was relieved of $10.00 If your tJQse needs painting, paint it now—this fall—with TH£ 8 HER WINWILLIAMS PAINT. Here are some of the reasons why you should do so. 1. The weather is settled and you don't have to contend with the spring rains. 2. You will protect it against the winter's snows and storms. 3. You wilt, avoid the. annoyance of gn JUS .flies, and other insects sticking to t'.ie surface. 4. Ther* is likely to be less moisture in it now than any other time; moisture is what often causes blistering, cracking, and 6. like troubles. S. W. P. costs less by the Job than any other paint because it wears longest, covers most, looks best, and is most economical. S. W. P. is best because it's made from best materials—pur " lead, pyre zinc, and pure In. s**d oil. It always satisfies; never goes wrong if righty used. — SOLO »V Teeple Hardware Go* Every seat was filled at both the morning and evening services, except j a few at the very front, and all the extra chairs were taken in the rear of J tbe church.

HEARD DRIP OF BLOOD. Michigan Troops in a Sham Battle- Various Things le and About the State. A New Decision. Attorney General Bird has decided that a person enrolled as an '•independent" may circulate petitions for nomination to office on the Republican ticket, holding that the law cannot deprive any elector of the right to become a candidate fou office in any party. A name_appearing on two petitions for the same-office should not he counted for either party, as county clerks should not be required to solve the proposition of the intent of any petitioner. The Twenty-sixth and Twenty-seventh senatorial districts declared for primary nominations, but since the primary Benzie county, by a decision of the supreme court, on the 1905 apportionment, has been transferred from the former to the latter district. Mr. Bird decides that this does not affect the primary vote. By the same decision Arenac county is now with Bay and Midland counties in a senatorial district. Arenac had not declared itself for primaries, but Bay and Midland had. That the senator in that district should be elected by the primary method, is the ruling of the attorney general, inasmuch as all the enrolled voters of Arenac could not overcome the majority for the proposition in the other two counties. Workman Electrocuted. ^ . The body of Frank V. Crusoe, an electrician employed by the McLeary Elctrical Co., was found Friday morning in the loft under the roof o r t h e Detroit city hall, where it had lain almost 24 hours. One hand tightly gripping a heavily charged feed wire told the story of Crusoe's end. Working at a disadvantage because of cramped quarters and the intense heat, the electrician had evidently grasped the bare wire and in an instant his life was gone. Directly beneath, hundreds of busy people came and went, but the body was not discovered until 24 hours later, after a systematic hunt for the man had been instituted. Crusoe was about 25 years old and lived with relatives at 225 Greenwood avenue. He had done much of the electrical work in the city hall since its rehabilitation and was familiar with every foot of the building. Heard the Blood Drip. "Want to see me cut my throat?" asked Contractor Albert J. Salisbury, of Battle Creek, in a surly manner, of his wife, as he brandished a razor. Closing her eyes, she fled, pausing to listen at the front,door. "Oh, it was awful," she said later, "when I stopped at the door before summoning help I heard the razor drop, to be followed by the sound of a steady drip, drip, on the floor. Then I opened the door and ran." , Salisbury reached a neighbor's yard, where he died from loss of blood. Salisbury was addicted to morbid brooding, and frequently quarreled with his wife. Wednesday night he is alleged to have seized her by the throat. Last night, when informed that she had visited a doctor during the day, he whipped out his razor. B MICHIGAN IN BRIEF. A Bloodless Battle. A bloodless and indecisive battle was fought on the banks of the creek between Hie "browns," comprising the Michigan state troops on the defense, and the "bines," composed of regulars, infantry, cavalry and artillery, the attacking force at. the encampment of regulars and Michigan troops near Indianapolis. Although the umpire gave no decision the Michigan boys were highly commeuded by the regular officers. Gen. Harrah's army of defense took up its positions with a precision that was .gratifying to the regular officers and showd that the militia officers are profiting by the extensive operations at the camps of instruction. The work of the M N G. signal corps was a revelation to the militiamen, most of whom saw for the first time the modern methods of communication between divisions of an army. i - A Police Puzzle. *1 want to b!T7d~cT<ej^irp;I am going- Insane and I want to* be put in a cell before I have a chance to make trouble," said David Moffitt, when he stalked into the Saginaw police headquarters.

Joseph Mielke, of Detroit, interfered between Vladisloff Felenski and Pelepski's wife to save the latter from a severe beating. The drunken and infuriated husband retaliated" by shooting Mielke dead. Neighbors and the police reports show it was Fellnskl's frequent pastime to beat and abuse his family while drunk. He is under arrest and acknowledges only an imperfect remembrance of his crime. T H I MOTH AND THE AUTOMOBILE. Speaking of automobiles reminds me that the New York state eutomologist has just made a rather sensational announcement—that the devastating gypsy moth is being brought into the state by automobiles. At the first reading this sounds as if the dainty creatures were being Imported in a fashionable way like so many pampered guests. But the real purpose of the announcement is to remind the farmers of the state that the dreaded auto has a new power to annoy in that gypsy moth caterplllers ride uninvited into our domain by becoming, like so many human creatures, "attached" to motor cars. The gypsy moth is set forth as a ravenous leaf feeder that has been particularly destructive in eastern Massachusetts. It feeds, when present in large numbers, on almost every tree and shrub besides herbaceous plants. ItB operations are particularly fatal to pine, hemlocks and other evergreens, since one defoliation of these trees is Invariably followed by death. The more recently imported brown tail moth is said to be especially destructive of fruit trees. "Danger is spreading in New York," cries the entomologist. By Inference it is spreading westward. Whether by automobile or otherwise it will find its way westward unloss something radical is done to fight the cater pillers, which are declared to be particularly hard to dislodge and kill. Hundreds of thousands of dollars have been spent by New England fight* ing the pests, who came to Massachusetts in 1868. The birds most useful in the fight are the yellow and black billed cuckoo, the Baltimore oriole, the cat bird, chickadee, blue jay, chipping sparrow and robin. FROM SHOWMAN TO PREACHER. This city has just witnessed the extraordinary spectacle of a man, for years devoted to the show business, a master of his craft, turning his whole time and fortune to the salvation of souls. Everybody, I suppose, has heard of Capt. Joseph George Woodward, master of the performing seals. Capt. Woodward's trained seals were real wonders. They played In a band. They juggled, counted, performed all manner of curious and singularly intelligent tricks. They did everything, one might say, but speak. It was no exaggeration to speak of them as the most intelligent animals on earth. The seal is notoriously intelligent, but it was under Woodward's astonishingly successful training that these seals made their hit. These seals, for exploiting which Woodward received $750 a week, have been sold—for $10,000, I am told. If this figure Is correct Woodward now has a fortune of about $70,000. The whole of this sum^ the showman is to devote to his lifework, the conversion of his fellowmen to the paths of religion. Every showman, every circus player or vaudeville artist who has ever been associated with Woodward has known of his religious trend, aud not one of these people will be found to say a word against his sincerity. When Woodward held a religious meeting between the sessions of a show nobody scoffed—or if he did he remained to pray. It was a habit of Woodward to give away small Bibles with certain passages marked. These markings were not the same in every case and those who received the books soon discovered that in making the markings Woodward had been influenced by what he regarded as the particular needs of the person to whom he gave the gift. That a man could follow the life Woodward has here in New York and in other parts of the country without ridicule and without rebuff is a curious and striking tribute to his sincerity and to his tect. He is now going to England to pursue there the work of an evangelist. Fails to Rescue Friend. Chippewa Falls, Wis.—W. J. Iskstad, a merchant, fell from a boat in Pike lake and drowned. Joseph Harding's clothes were torn to tatters and his body bruised as a result of his effort to save his friend. Falli from Yacht; Drowned. Detroit, Mich.—Lawrence True, of Chicago, fell overboard from the racing- yacht Ste. Claire, off Charity island, Saginaw bay, while returning with several young Detroit men from the Bay City races at Tawas. The Only One Awakt. The pastor paused in his dlscourM and looked over his congregation, "Sister Smith," be said, "will you kindly come up close to the pulpit? I can save my voice by repeating the rest of this sermon to you in a conversational tone, and it will not disturb the slumbers of the others."—Cleveland Leader. ^ Always Had Kick Coming. * JrV — This old lady was a hypochondria* ' ' Her various diseases interested hen '„ and she talked of nothing else. O i a ^ y day a visitor found her eating h e a m f t y p ^ ; and inquired as to her health. Tljpii* t invalid sighed and answered: "I feel; ~ very well, ma'am, but I always feet bad when I feel well, because I know I am going to feel worse afterward." Old Universities. % Oxford and Cambridge hold an undisputed primacy among English universities. The most strenuous enlightened modern effort can duce nothing to rival the dignified tradition of centuries of learning set amid quiet lawns, mediaeval" butldrlugs and beautiful music—University Revie.w Women and Their Fads. A London physician has discovered that the wearing of heavy necklaces Is responsible for physical infirmities. Necklaces, he says, cause a pressure an the important nerves that converge at the base of the skull. Jhls Is balm, indeed, to the woman who owns np> Jewels. Learning Obedience. The only way of learning to do a thing is to do it. The only way of learning obedience from Christ la to give up your will to him, and to make the doing of his will the one desire and delight of your heart.— Andrew Murray. Surprise for the Fish. Seven thousand five hundred gallons of adulterated wine were, by order of the police, poured into the River Necker last week. The effect on the local fish, who were used to nothing stronger than water, was, we understand, deplorable.—Punch. Jeweler Is Wily. The newest scheme of a wily jeweler is to try to get his customers to buy jewels that match the color of their eyes. Of course, he is always sure to tell them that it enhances their beauty. Large Pecan Bearing Orchard. What is thought to be the largest bearing pecan orchard in the world Is owned by Maj. John S. Horlbeck, in Charleston county, S. C. He has 600 acres in bearing trees.

"It's something like a burning building; one doesn't want to be hard-hearted and rejoice over other people's misfortunes; but then, if It has to burn, one would like to be there to see." Miss Bessie put a stray lock of the flaxen hair up under its proper comb. "I'm sure I prefer California and the orange groves and peace," she asserted. "Don't you, Cousin Billy?" What Mr. Calvert would have replied Is no matter for this history, since at this precise moment the rajah came In, "coruscating," as Virginia put it, from his late encounter with the superintendent's chief clerk. "Give them the word to go, Jastrow, and let's get out of heah," he commanded. And when the secretary had vanished the Rajah made his explanations to all and sundry. "I've been obliged in a manneh to change ouh itinerary. Anotheh company is trying to fault us up in Qua'tz Creek canyon, and I am in a meashuh compelled to be on the ground. We shall be delayed . only a few days, I hope; at the worst only until the first snowstorm comes; and, in the meantime, Califo'nia won't —run away. Virginia clapped her hands. "Then we are really to go to 'the front' and see a right-of-way fight? Oh, won't that be perfectly intoxicating!" The Rajah glared at her as if she had said something incendiary. The picturesque aspect of the struggle had evidently not appealed to him. But he smiled grimly when he said: "Now there spoke the blood of the fighting Carterets: hope you won't change your mind, my dean." And with that he dived into his working den, pushing the lately returned secretary in'ahead of him. Virginia linked arms with Bessie the flaxen-haired when the wheels began to turn. "We are off," she said. "Let's go out on the platform and see the last of Denver." It was while they were clinging to the hand-rail and looking back upon the jumble of railway activities out of which they had just emerged that the Rosemary, gaining headway, overtook another moving train running smoothly on a track parallel to that upon which the private car was speeding. It was the narrow-gauge mountain connection of the Utah line, and Wlnton and Adams were on the rear platform of the last car. So it chanced that the four of them were presently waving their adieux across the wind-blown Interspace. In the midst of it, or rather at the moment when the Rosemary, gathering speed as the-Tighter"6T~fhe two trains, forged ahead, the Rajah came out to light his cigar. He took in the little tableau of the rear platforms at a glance, and when the slower train was left behind asked a question of Virginia. "Ah—wasn't one of -those two the young gentleman who called on you yestehday afternoon, my deah?" Virginia admitted it. "Could you faveh me with his name?" "He is Mr. Morton P. Adams, of Boston." "Ah-h; and his friend—the young gentleman who laid his hand to ouh plow and put the engine on the track last night?" "He is Mr. Winton—a— an artist, I believe; at least, that is what I gathered from what Mr. Adams said of him.'' Mr. Somerville Darrah laughed, a •low litle- laugh deep in his throat. "Bless your innocent soul—he a plcchuh- painteh? Not in a thousand yeab», qy.deah Virginia. He is a railr o a A p t * , a a d a right good one at that. F a w t y t M with the name again; Wint f h j m you say?" HNo; Winton—Mr. John Winton." "IM-devil!' gristed the Rajah, smit- Jftgtfee hand-rail with his clenched fist. "H*h! I beg your pahdon, my deahs— « mean slip of the tongue." And then, w> the full as savagely* "By heaven,. I itope^hat train will fly the track and ditch him before ever he comes within ordering;distance of the work in {feta'tz C¥eek*c*n*o*r .*••W! hy. UAde Somerville—bow, Yindlctive!" cried Virginia. "Who Is he, and what has he done?" "He is Misteh John Winton, as you informed me just now; one of the brainiest constructing engineers in this entiah country, and the hardest man in this or any otheh country to down in a right-of-way fight—that's who he Is. And it's not what he's done, my deah Virginia, it's what he is going to do. If I can't get him killed up out of ouh way,—" but here Mr. Darrah aaw the growing terror In two pairs of eyes,' and realizing that he was committing himself before an unsympathetic audience, beat a hasty retreat to his stronghold at the other end of the Rosemary. "Well!" said the flaxen-haired Bessteel- blue dawn, she was—or thought she was—the first member of the party to dress and steal oat upon the railed platform to look abroad upon the wondrous scene in the canyon. But her reverie, trance-like in its wordless enthusiasm, was presently broken by a voice behind her—the voice, namely, of Mr. Arthur Jastrow. "What a howling wilderness, to be sure, isn't it?" said the secretary, twirling his eye-glasses by the cord and looking, as he felt, interminably bored. "No, indeed; anything but that," she retorted, warmly. "It Is grander than anything I ever Imagined. I wish there were a piano in the car. It makes me fairly ache to set it in some form of expression, and music is the only form I know," "I'm glad it It doesn't bore you," he rejoined, willing to agree with her for the sake of prolonging the interview. "But to me it Is nothing more than a dreary wilderness, as I say; a barren, rock-ribbed gulch affording an Indifferent right-of-way for two railroads." "For one," she corrected, in a qaiek upflash of loyalty for her kin. The secretary shifted bis. gazer from the mountains to the maldeu and smiled. She was exceedingly good to look upon—high-bred, queenly and just now with the fine 'fire of enthusiasm to quicken her pulses and to sie, eatcheing her ginia laughed. "I'm glad I'm not said. READING THE breath. But Vir WARRANT. Mr. Winton," she CHAPTER IV. Morning in the highest highlands of the Rockies, a morning clear, cold and tense, with a bell-like quality in the frosty air to make the cracking of a snow-laden fir bough resound like a pistol shot. For Denver and the dwellers on the eastern plain the sun is an hour high; but the hamlet mining camp of Argentine, with its dovecote railway station and two-pronged siding, still lies in the steel blue depths of the canyon shadowr - - Massive mountains, dark green to the timber line and dazzling white above It, shut in the narrow valley to right and left. A mimic torrent, icebound in the quieter pools, drums and gurgles on its descent midway between two railway embankments, the one to which the station and side tracks belong old and well settled, the other ' new and as yet unballasted. Just opposite the pygmy station a lateral gorge intersects the main canyon, making a deep gash in the opposing mountain bulwark, around which the new line ha^ to find its way by a looping detour. denlng of the main dred yards below the ' camp of rude slab ng out its horde of Italians; and on a track fronting the shanties blue wood smoke is curling lazily upward from the kitchen car of a construction train. AH night long the hosemary, drawn by the speediest of mountain-climbing locomotives, had stormed onward and upward from the valley of the Grand, through black defiles and around the shrugged shoulders of the mighty peaks to find a resting-place tax the white-robed dawn on the siding a^ Argentine. The lightest of sleepers, Virginia had awakened when the special was passing through Carbonate; and drawing the berth curtain she had lain for hours watching the solemn processton of cliffs and peaks wheeling in *UteJy t a d tfrttMy array ejeinet the Inky background of sky. Now. In the In a seamy canyon a few hi station a shelters w i l d - l o s i n g crooked spur send the rare flush to neck and cheek. Jastrow, the cold-eyed, the business automaton set to go off with a click at Mr. Somerville Darrah's touch, had ambitions not automatic. Some day he meant to put the world of business under foot as a conqueror, standing triumphant on the apex of that pyramid of success which the Mr. Somerville Darrahs were so successfully uprearing. When that day should come, there would need to be an establishment, a menage, a queen for the kingdom of success. Summing her up for the hundredth time since the beginning of the/westward flight, he thought Miss Carteret would fill the requirements passing well. - — _. But this was a divagation, and he pulled himself back to the askings of the moment, agreeing with her again without reference to his private convictions. "For one, I should hare said." he amended. "We mean to have it that way. though an unprejudiced onlooker might be foolish enough to say that there Is a pretty good present prospect of two." But Miss Carteret was in -a. contradictory mood. Moreover, she was a woman, and the way to a woman's confidence does not lie through the neutral country of easy compliance. "If you won't take' the other side. I will," she said. "There win be t w o / jastrow acquiesced a second time. "I shouldn't wonder. Our competitor's road seems to be only a question of time—a very short time, judging from the number of men turning out in the track gang down yonder." Virginia leaned over the railing to look past the car and the dovecote station, shading her eyes to shut out the snow-blink from the sun-fired peaks. "Why, they are soldiers!" she exclaimed. "At least, some of them have guns on their shoulders. And see— they are forming in line!" The secretary adjusted his eyeglasses. "By Jove! you are right; they have armed the track force. The new chief of construction doesn't mean to take any chances of being shaken loose by force. Here they come." The end of track of the new line was diagonally across the creek from the Rosemary's berjh and a short pistol shot farther down stream. But to advance it to a point opposite the private car, and to gain the altitude of the high embankment directly across from the station, the new line turned short out of the main canyon at the mouth of the intersecting gorge, describing a long, U-shaped curve around the head of the lateral ravine and doubling back upon itself to reenter the canyon proper at the higher elevation. The curve which was the beginning of this U-shaped loop was the morning's scene of action, and the Utah track layers, 200 strong, moved to the front in orderly array, with armed guards as flankers for the hand-car load of rails which the men were pushing up the grade. Jastrow darted into the car, and a moment later his place on the observation platform was taken by a wrathful industry colonel fresh from his dressing-room—so fresh, indeed, that he was coatless, hatless, and collarless, and with the dripping bath sponge clutched like a missile to hurl at the impudent invaders on the opposite side of the canyon. "Hah! wouldn't wait until a man could get Into his clothes!" he rasped, apostraphizing the Utah's new chief of construction. "Jastrow! Faveh me instantly, seh! Hustle up to the camp there and turn out the constable, town marshal, or whatever he is. Tell him I have a writ for him to serve. Run, seh!" The secretary appeared and disappeared like a marionette when the string has been jerked by a vigorous hand, and Virginia smiled—this without prejudice to a very acute appreciation of the grave possibilities which were preparing themselves. But having her share of the militant quality which made her uncle what he is, she stood her ground. "Aren't you afraid you will take cold, Uncle Somerville?" she asked, archly; and the Rajah came suddenly to a sense of, his incompleteness and went in to finish his ablutions against the opening of the battle actual. At first Virginia thought she would follow him. . When Mercury Jastrow should return with the officer of the law there would be trouble of some sort, and the woman in her shrank from the witnessing of it. But at the same instant the blood of the fighting Carterets asserted itself and she resolved to stay. "I wonder what uncle hopes to be able to do?" she mused. •'Will a little town constable with a bit of signed paper from some justice of the peace be mighty enough to stop all that furious activity over there? It's more than incredible." From that she fell to watching the activity and the orderly purpose of it. A length of steel, with men clustering like bees upon it. would slide from its place on the hand-car to fall with a frosty clang on the cross ties. Instantly the hammermen would pounce upon it. One would fall upon hands and knees to "sight" it into place; two others would slide the squeaking track gauge along its inner edge; a quartette, Working like the component parts of a faultless mechanism, would tap the fixing spikes into the wood; and then at a signal a dozen of the heavy pointed hammers swung aloft and a rhythmic volley of resounding blows clamped the rail into permanence on its wooden bed. (TO BE CONTINUED.) AN OLD PAINTER'S IDEA*. The autumn season is coming more and more to be recognized as a moat suitable time for housepainting. There is no frost deep in the wood to make trouble for even the best job of painting, and the general seasoning of the summer has put the wood Into good condition In every way. The weather, moreover, Is more likely to be settled for the necessary length of time to allow all the coats to thoroughly dry, a very important precaution. An old and successful painter said to the writer the other day: "House owner* would get more for their money if they would allow their painters to take more time, especially between coats. Instead of allowing barely time for the surface to get dry enough not to be tack,y,' several days (weeks would not be too much) should be allowed so that the coat might set through and through. It is Inconvenient, of course, but, if one would suffer this slight inconvenience, it would add two or three years to the life of the paint." All this is assuming, of course, that the paint used is the very best to be had. The purest of white lead and the purest of linseed oil unmixed with any cheaper of the cheap mixtures, often known as "White Lead," and oil which has been doctored with fish oil, benzine, corn oil or other of the adulterants known to the trade are used, all the precautions of the skilled painter are useless to prevent the cracking and peeling which make houses unsightly in a year or so and; therefore, make painting bills too frequent and costly. House owner should have his painter bring the ingredients to the premises separately, white lead of some well known reliable brand and linseed oil of equal quality and mix the paint just before applying it. Painting need not be' expensive and unsatisfactory if the old painter's suggestions are followed. FINEST TROUT IN THE WORLD Found in Small Stream In the High Sierras, Says Expert. The finest trout in the world, says Dr. Barton W. Evermann of the bureau of fisheries, is to be found in a little stream of the high Sierras in southern California called Volcano creek. The trout is named the "golden trout," ,and in beauty of coloring gameness and delicacy of flavor it has no equal. So far as is known, it exists only I in this stream, which is about 20 : miles in length. President Roosevelt i recently called attention of the bureau | of fisheries to this unique specimen. ! with the result that Dr. Evermann was sent to California to study its habits and environment and to see whether it might not be introduced elsewhere. j He reports tbat the trout is in danger of extermination and.that fishing : in the stream must be prohibited by the state of California for three years if the trout is to be saved. Dr. Evermann has also recommended that the bureau of fisheries undertake the ar- \ tiflcial propagation of the trout and i co-operate wi$h the state of California | in transplating it to a number of bar- ! ren streams that can be easily { reached.—National Geographic Magazine. The first melodrama was produced i at the C o v n t Garden theater on Nov, ! 14. .1802, and was called "The Tale ot : Mystery."

They were as eager for victory and as earnest of purpose as himself, but in every case some misfortune or some fault marred the result, until the country grew weary with waiting; discouragement overshadowed hope, and misgiving almost engulfed his own strong soul.—Helen NIcolay, In St. Nicholas.

She says: "At the time Postum was first put on the market I was suffering from nervous dyspepsia and my physician had repeatedly told me not to use tea or coffee. Finally 1 decided to take his advice and try Postum, and got a sample and had It carefully prepared, finding it delicious to the taste. So I continued its use and very soon its beneficial ef* fects convinced me of its value, for I got well of my nervousness and dyspepsia.

MILLIONS OF PEOPLE STUDYING THE TRUSTS THOUSANDS OF NEWSPAPERS DECIDING TO PRINT THE TRUTH REGARDING THE GIGANTIC "SYSTEMS" THAT CONTROL THE PEOPLES FOOD, PRODUCTS AND PROSPERITY ALSO THE INSURANCE COMPANIES AND RAILROADS IN ORDER THAT THE PEOPLE MAY CONTROL THE TRUSTS BY THE POWER OF KNOWLEDGE Thousands- of newspapers are deciding to print the truth about the trusts. They have concluded to give their readers the power of knowledge. Without knowledge people are helpless. It is the basis of our self-government. When we know what to do we can do it. It is a free country. The people control everything. All Power it In the Hands of the People. No political party has power except through the people. No political party can act without popular support. It may do so, but that is suicide —at the next election it loses its power. Political parties have but to hear the verdict of the people to realize the people's power. Combinations of capital are equally helpless —they must yield to the people or be crushed. Io these matters of meat, railroads and insurance the power of reform is in the hands of the public. The people have but to decide what they want done and it will be done. The Power of the Press Belongs to the People. "Publicity is the cure for the trusts," the President has said, —because when the press gives the facts to the public the public will exercise its mighty power. The press belongs to the public. The people who read the newspapers and magazines control them. Let the people cease to read any given publication and no matter how much money its publisher has and how much advertisers spend in it. its power is gone. The people are represented by the press. They delegate their power to itb columns when they undertake to 1 ave it solve public questions, for it just as much or more than when the public power is delegated to ;i member of the legislature or of Congress. To secure the representation of the public is the aim of every ambitious publisher. He is representative of the public just to the extent he has subscribers, just to the extent people read his publication. Getting Subscribers is Almost Like Getting Votes It's about the same as getting votes. A subscription is pracically a vote for the policy of the publication. It furnishes the cash with which to publish. It furnishes the moral support that lies in the fact that people read any given publication. So the struggle is for circulation. The great giants in publishing are the city j.ress. Millions in money backs t h e enterprises of the city publisher. He reaches out into the whole country for subscribers. He waxes wealthy and hires the best writers in the country and decides to make his publications so interesting that everybody will have to read them. He stirs up public questions— goes after the meat trust, the insurance trust, the railroads, all the vast enterprises which handle the people's money and products and distribute and augment the people's prosperity, or vice versa, whichever way you want to look at It. The City Versus The Country It's the same old story—creating central control, bringing the people's money into the cities to be handled by the men who publish the magazines and daily newspapers and who aim to abolish the country store and the country publisher by making it impossible for them to compete just as the other trusts have centralized other things, such as insurance and cattle-killing and management of railroads. It's the city versus the country— the non-producer versus the producer, the middle man versus the end man— the fellows who take control of commodities and cash between the producer and the consumer and adding nothing to either commodities or cash amass vast fortunes for themselves. T-ast year the country's products were over twelve billion dollars in value but the farmers And the other working people got only two billion dollars of this money. Who got the rest? It's the cor runt, immoral, sens*/ tionaj, lawless, dirty and diseased city versus the incorruptible, moral* sober-minded, law-abiding, clean and healthy country—and the city has the best of it to date. Altftd and Abetted By the Government "Millions for postal service to distribute the city publications to the country people but not one dollar for one cent postage," is the policy of the government—Democratic or Republican, it makes no difference, for the city publisher has been getting his little million dollar a week graft out of the postal department under both for years. "Help the city all you can," is the cry in Congress. "Crush the countryman. Build up Chicago, St. Louis, New York as Jobbing and manufacturing and railroad and packing and brewery and publishing centers. Don't let a single state have a wholesale center of its own unless it's located where It can help us politically. Regulate railroad rates to compel the whole country to buy everything from these great political centers and .to send everything there—wheat, cattle, cotton, cash. "Kill off the country merchant and the country store. They interfere with centralized control. Kill off the country banker. He keeps some of the people's money at home. Kill off the country publisher. He appeals to a free and intelligent people and has power we must curb. Drive all general advertisers to use only the big city publications and let the mail order advertiser get all the local trade away from the country advertiser who supports the country newspaper. Hurray for centralization. The country people supply us with evervthine we eat and wear and now let's make 'em supply all our cash and buy nothing except what's advertised in our publications." That's the Cry of the City That's the cry of the city—the hungry, jjensual, wicked, selfish, lazy, cruel, cursed city that takes our young people and converts them into disciples of mammon, into non-religious, non-virtuous, non-intelligent supporters of city systems of graft and greed and now wants to take all our other possessions, including our independence of thought. And the city publisher goes about it shrewdly. He publishes what looks at the first glance to be honest articles, setting forth the facts about "Frenzied Finance" and meat methods and railroading and private car system and insurance scandals, but which are really inspired by motives that will not bear analysis. The plausibility of these articles is their shrewdest point. They look exactly as if they were written "For the Common Good," but they should all be labeled "Centralize Everything in the Cities." From rate legislation to packing house exposures they all aim to create conditions that will compel all business to be done in great cities by great trusts. The local butqher can't kill cattle under government inspection, the country store can't sell goods in competition with the city mail order house and the ordinary jobber in any state center can't compete with the Jobbei in big cities that are favored by the Interstate Commerce Commission and rate legislation. But when the country newspapers band together and emloy men of talent to write regarding great subjects, men who will give the facts and let the people judge for themselves .hen the country publisher protects himself and his patrons. This Is exactij what thousands of them are doing. They are combining to have the truth brought out regarding the trusts and thus putting their readers in position to enact legislation that will safeguard the country against the attacks of the city and the city's publishers and politicians. Thus the country ptiuli^.n r is as serting himself and will be able to win in the struggle for his own existence and that of his patrons—the country storekeeper, farmer, cattleraise; and banker. A L L ARE FOND OF MOLA88E? Favorite Dish with Farm Hands After Hard Day's Work. The farm hands, a dozen brawny colored men, had washed at the pump, and now sat patiently and quietly at the table. Soon their dinner appeared. There was some kind of boiled pork—a long, low oblong of pure white fat, with Just one thread of lean running through it: and there was pone, delicious pone made by the Southern cook; and there wens pota toes, coffee and black molasses. The men pu^ the black molasses on their fat pork. The farmer said: BIG NEW 8 H 0 E BUILDING. it la Dedicated by the W. L. Douglas Cp, at Brockton. The dedication a short time ago of the new administration and jobbing house building erected by the W. L.

The dedicatory program Included open house from 11 a. m. to 8 p. m. with concert by t h e Mace Oay orchestra and the presence of a Boston caterer to attend to the wishes of all.

The long, hard work in the sunny fields gives you an appetite that nothing satisfies as molasses will. "I used to have an overseer who could no more have eaten his dinner without molasses than without a knife. He would take on his plate meat, potatoes, corn, beans and so •on, and he would chop Trad~Tntngle these things together, adding bits of bread besides, and lastly he would take the molasses jug and pour on about half a*pint. That seems like a heavy and sickening. dish for the hot noon of an August day, doesn't it? I tell you, though, it tastes good to a man who has been toiling in a blazing field since sunrise. I've tried it, *nd I know." Queer Ways of Becoming Dead. A circular issued by the Travellers' Insurance company tells of some queer ways In which its policyholders have met death. B. F. Elbert, of Des Moines. la., drove a pair of horses that took fright and plunged into a stream. His wagon overturned, pinned Mr. Elbert under water and he was drowned. John H. Hessler, of Wilkesbarre, Pa., while walking over a railroad crossing stubbed his toe and fell, fracturing his skull. He died five minutes later. Henry S. Potter, of New York, an office doorman, when cutting bread cut his thumb. Blood poisoning developed and he died in 1?. days. Charles A. Redmond, of Cincinnati, 0., struck his toe against a bedpost. Blood poisoning followed and he died in 16 days. / W. H. M. Barnes, manager of a de tective agency in Seattle, was waiting to take a %teamer when he fell into the water and was drowned. Patrick McGarry, proporietor of. a boiler works in Chicago, was held up by highwaymen, who fractured hi? skull. He died three days after. Surgery Cures Idiocy. Growing geniuses by the surgeon's knife is promised by Parisian experiments./- They have at least cured idiocy. Thr idea was conceived that idiocy was frequently caused by the premature union of the bones of the skull in infants where no congenital causes wore apparent. Acting on this assupmtion, the French surgeons removed a portion of the covering of the skull on several patients, the idea being that the brain had no room to expand commensurate with the growth of the child. The results in many'" cases proved the correctness of the theory. In some instances the results were marvelous. One girl began to show signs of recovering intelligence the day the operation was performed. which are marvels In many ways. Fifteen thousand invitations were sent out, lnolnding over 11,000 to the retail dealers In t h e United States who handle the W. L. Douglas Co. shoes, the others going t o shoe manufacturers and all allied industries In Brockton and vicinity. Mr. Douglas will be glad to have anybody who Is Interested call and Inspect the new plant, and says "the latch string Is always out." All departments of the plant were open for inspection, t h e three factories as well as t h e new building, and visitors were received and escorted through t h e industrial maze by ex- Gov. Douglas, assisted by the heads 0l the various departments. Under the present system all shoes are manufactured to order, and customers sometimes lose sales waiting for shoes to arrive. With the new jobbing house they will be enabled to have their Hurry orders shipped the same day they are received. The new building is 260 feet long and €0 feet wide and two stories in height. The jobbing department will occupy the entire lower floor, while the offices will occupy the second floor. The jobbing department will carry a complete stock of men's, boys', youths', misses' and children's shoes, slippers, rubbers and findings equal to any jobbing house in the country. Buyers are especially invited to come here to trade, and every effort possible will be made to suit their convenience. There will be a finely appointed sample room on the second floor, with an office in which both telephone and telegraph will be installed, with operators, both Western Union and Postal Telegraph wires to be used. There will also be arrangements for the receipt and despatch of mail. A N Y T H I N G FOR F I L T H Y LUCRE Writer's Cynical Justification of Mean Piece of Work. Found Cannon Ball of 1634. A cannon ball which had lain buried since 1634 was recently recovered from a field on a farm at Acton, Nantwich, England. The ancient town of Xantwich played a considerable part in the civil war, as the headquarters In Cheshire of the parliamentary Generals Fairfax and Brereton, and much fighting took place at Acton, where during a portion of the siege of Xantwich the royalist forces were located. On some of the masonry of both Acton and Xantwich churches there are still visible marks caused by cannon shot. Morgan Had Boiled Codfish. J. Plerpont Morgan was being discussed the other day, A man asked if the party had ever been in the financier's house and none had. "Well, I had to go to see him once," said the interrupter, "and do you know the thing that impressed me most was the thought that If I had as much money as Morgan I wouldn't let it be known to everyone who entered my hallway at that moment that I was going to have boiled codfish for dinner. The place simply reeked with the odor of that dish."

His friends and all those of the circle in which the author moved recognized the story as an exact and recent transcript from the life of the writer, involving a very beautiful young* woman, also well known in the same set. One man, coming across the author, took him to task for it. "What in the world did you write up that affair with Miss Blank for?" he demanded. The author looked at him unmoved and with the same exquisite calm and clearness that characterized his work, replied: "I needed the money.""

I go to Paris with no thought or time for it, busy about many other things; and then, on -my way over one of the bridges across the river, perhaps, I see it again on its island, the beautiful towers high above the high roofs of houses and palaces, and the view, now so familiar, strikes me afresh with all the wonder of my first impression. The wonder only seems greater If I turn, as I am always tempted to, and walk down the quays on the left bank, the towers before me and with every step coming more and more completely together, by the Pont Neuf, to the island, and at last to the great square where Xotre Dame fronts me in. its superb calm.—Elizabeth Robins Pennell, in The Century..

I GOT WILD WELCOME MAORIS GREET VISITORS WITH NATIVE CEREMONIES. Proceedings, One Would Imagine, Rather Trying to the Nerves of a Party of Weetern Tourists. - A A traveler In New Zealand telle of a native welcome. His party drew near to the central home of the tribe .of Maoris: "As we rested beneath the parapets, we were startled by a horrible yell and round the corner of the stockade appeared a ferocious figure, tattooed, red-painted, befeathered and naked, except for a very brief waist fringe of dangling palm fiber. His eyes rolled till the whites only were seen, then he thrust out a long and snaky tongue and grimaced tearfully. Shaking a wooden spear ftp his hand, he swiftly cast it at us, then turned and rushed toward the village. Just as the spearsman turned one of our young men, who had rapidly divested himself of all but < his waist shawl, darted out in pursuit and we followed at a .more dignified pace. The entrance to the city was barred by a body of armed men, crouching still as death, on one knee, each holding a gun, butt on the ground, barrel sloping toward us. We advanced until we were within twenty paces of the warriors Then all at once, at a wild cry from a chief on the right, they jumped to their feet, leaped high in the air, with their feet doubled' under them like deer, and with one voice liter ally barked out a thundering chorus This way and that our martial hosts bounded, -brandishing their loaded rifles in time to the chant. Halting abruptly, with an earth-shaking thud they fired a volley ef ball cartridge over our heads. "Another volley reverberated from hill to hill and the bullets whistled over us. Then the brown warriors fell back and a gayly dressed band of women, with green leaves wreath ed about their brows, and waving shawls and leafy boughs, advanced with a gliding semidance and chanted their ancient welcome song. When the women's song ceased, out to the front danced six girls—a group of vividly barbaric, yet not inharmoni ous, color—appareled in loose crim son roundabouts and short- gowns ol georgeously flowered print, their brows bound about with red handker chiefs, which held in place the black and white plumes of the rare huia bird and the iridescent feathers ol the long-tailed cuckoo, their cheeks dabbed with red ocher paint, green stone pendants and shark's teeth hanging from their ears. "These barefooted nymphs, hands on hips and heads thrown back, glided into the measure of a dance to the music of a shrill monody chanted by a white-haired, tattooed old lady. Then all at once the chant ended on an unexpected high note and "the performers stopped, breath less and glowing all over with their self-evolved emotions. Broad flax mats were spread out for us on the green and after speeches of greeting we were regaled, with pork, preserved birds, wild honey and potatoes, in quantity sufficient to have satisfied a starving Russian garrison." "Adding Insult to Injury." The phrase "adding Insult to injury" originated from a fable by Phaedus, a Roman author, who lived in the reign of .Augustus Caesar, and whose writings were first introduced in modern literature in 1596, at Rheims. France. The fable is called 'The Bald Man and the Fly," and is as follows: "A fly bit the bare pate of a bald man, who endeavoring to crush it, gave himself a heavy blow. Then said the fly, jeeringly: 'You wanted to avenge the sting of a tiny insect with death. What will you do to yourself, who have added insult to injury?' " Deaf Women' Form Club. One of the most curious clubs on record has recently been formed by society women in Berlin. The principal condition of membership Is that the applicant must be deaf.

NEAR DEATH THROUGH SNAKE 8leeper Awoke to Find Monster Coiled Around His Neck. F. B. Feve, an employe of the Northern Electric, hid a thrilling experience with a snake Tuesday morning. Feve with two companions occupies a tent made out of gunny sacks in the western portion of Oroville. He was awakened by a feeling of strangulation. He attempted to cry out, but so tightly was his throat bound that he could make no sound. As he became fully awake he realized that something must be done or he would choke. He grabbed frantically for his throat and his hand slipped over the scales- of a huge snake which had coiled itself around his neck. He frantically pulled the coils loose, the reptile resisting him and biting him In the cheek. C\, His two companions, awakened by the noise, came to Feve's rescue. The two pulled the snake away and threw it to the floor, where it glided away while the men attended to Mr. Feve's wound. . The reptile was a gopher snake.—Redding Correspondence Sar Francsco Call. PECULIAR MEANS OF DEFENSE Small Daggers of Light Sent Out by the Centipede. Among the peculiar powers of animals there are none harder to explain than the power of being self-luminous. It is sometimes termed phosphorescence, but it is not now supposed to depend upon phosphorus in the animal. A correspondent of Nature describes her experience with a luminous centipede which shows the evident purpose of the luminous substance as a means of defense. "Attention was first attracted by a light of brilliant bluish-green that moved forward over the gravel, leaving behind a trail of light, which, gradually separating, became a scattered mass of brilliant points. The scattered ponts proved to be red ants, which were pursuing the centipede. It had discharged this luminous liquid over them. The centipede was picked up and put in a tumbler where it flashed out a mass of light. When the hand was placed over the tumbler to prevent the escape of the captive, a strange prickly sensation was felt as from a slight charge of electricity. The centipede would wrTtTuTthe light out of its body in blue-green flashes until it had exhausted its luminosity and ceased to shine. Defense seems certainly to be one of the uses of this secretion. SORES ON HANDS. Suffered for a Long Time Without Relief—Doctor Was Afraid to Touch Them—Cur^d by Cuticura. "For a long time I suffered with sores on the hands which were itchins, painful and disagreeable. I had three doctors, and derived no benefit from any of them. One doctor said he was afraid to touch my hands, so you must know how bad they were; another said I never could be cured; and the third said the sores were caused by the dipping of my hands in the water in the dye-house where I work. I saw in the papers about the wonderful cures of the Cuticura Remedies and procured some of the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. In three days after the application of the Cuticura Ointment my hands began to peel and were better. The soreness disappeared, and they are now smooth and clean, and I am still working in the dye-house. Mrs. A. E. Maurer, 2340 State St., Chicago, 111., July 1, 1905." 8mokers Shown by Handwriting.

The University of Notre Dame, it appears, has some features that can not be duplicated in any other school. It is one °e*We* ? w . well-established colleges, with settled traditions reaching back sixty-four years, with a distinguished staff of professors and excellent library and laboratory equipment. Its discipline is of the paternal kind—strong without being oppressive; and as it embraces in its scope the grammar school, high school and college work, Its appea1 is as broad as it is potent. Perhaps the most remarkable feature of the famous Indiana University, however, is the fact that it has arrived at Its present marvelous development absolutely without endowment. An announcement of the courses provided at Notre Dame appears on another page.

The vital nicotine is garnered in these pearlike balls, but [ as it is impossible to shave off these hairs, and would be a scarcely com mendable achievement if it could be undertaken, it becomes necessary to preserve the whole foliage for commercial purposes."

'AmericarK poetry Is occasional, not professional; something aside from the day's work, instead of being the day's work. Browning wrote a poem a day for a stated period, applying his every working hour to the task undertaken. Browning is an example of a professional poet. We cannot boast of such an example. John Burroughs boasts of only one poem called "Waiting." Hawthorne and Webster Wrote two or three poems. Cooper wrote three. Bryant had a day's work to do In a atwapaper office, as did Eugene Ktifcile Emerson had lectures to ; Sidney Lanier was a flute ~ player In a Baltimore orchestra. Joaquin Miller Is writing poems . while he plows—like Burns. A Perfectly Digested Breakfast Makes Nerve Force for the Day. J- Played In Luck. Rowan—Did you have any trouble In learning to play the cornet? Bloit—tjpne worth mentioning. AH the neighbors were poor shots.~Chlcago Dally Newt. Everything goes wrong if the breakfast lies in your stomach like a mud pic. What you eat does harm if you can't digest it—it turns to poison. A bright lady teacher found this to be true, even of an ordinary light breakfast of eggs and toast. She says:" "Two years ago I contracted a very annoying form of indigestion. My stomach was in such a condition that a simple breakfast of fruit, toast and egg gave me great distress. "I was slow to believe that trouble could come from such • a simple diet but finally had to give it up, and found a great change upon a cup of hot Postum and Grape-Nuts with cream, for my morning meal. For more than a year I have held to this course and have not suffered except when injudiciously varying my diet. "I have been a teacher for several years and find that my easily digested breakfast means a saving of nervous force for the entire day. My gain of ten pounds In weight also causes me to want to testify to the vajue-of Grape-Nuts. "Grape-Nuts holds first rank at our table." » Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

My work of collecting lakes me out two da?s every week and I take a car ride all over tbe town at their expense, (what a cinch). I see by tbe last paper I got from home that A.

We have been having some very fine vveitber in the past and I hope it will continue for some time yet. It is quite dry just at present but not very warm, a person is comfortable all the time, while I guess by the sound of some of the letters I get from home that it is pretty hot there, so you had better all come to Washington where everything is just, perfect.

RAILROAD MEN IN CONFERENCE Discuss Rate Law at Suggestion of Interstate Board. Washington.—"I am not surprised to learn that the attorneys of the railroads of the country are in consultation in order to reach a common conclusion as to the interpretation of the new rate law," said Interstate Commissioner Clements in an interview regarding the meeting of railroad officials in Atlantic City. "The commission," he said, "has urged upon all of the railroads the necessity for prompt compliance with the provisions of the new law and to this end has invited them to appoint committees^ of conference with the commission in respect particularly to the preparation and publication of tariffs and the keeping of account books, etc." Buffalo Treasurer Set Free.

The Conspiracy of the Cities! DO THEY CONTROL THE COUNTRY? The Trusts Centralizing Everything in the Cities, Seek to Handle Every Dollar of the People's Money, Every Pound of Meat, Buihei of Wheat, Mile of Railroad, and Every Country Bank—Crushing the Country Publisher and the Country Merchant with City Newspapers, Magazines and Mail Order Houses Aided by the Washington Politicians. "It is a 'conspiracy of the cities*!" said a prominent man in Chicago the other day. "These gigantic combinations of capital and power aim to put every dollar of the people's money, every pound of meat, bushel of wheat, mile of railroad and every country bank under control of the cities. "The cities produce nothing, but control everything. They would starve and freeze if it were not for the country, yet while country people are busy growing grain and cattle to feed the cities, city people have plenty of time to scheme how to get this grain and cattle into their own hands soon as it is ready for market. "And they succeed. "The price of corn, wheat and cattle is fixed in the cities. Shipments of all products are under city control. "Country Money Fiowt Into the City Banks." "Country money is also under city control. The country banks carry their reserve deposits In city banks. "They have to do so by law, which says reserve money of country banks must bjgL carried in city banks designated 'depositories' in order to count as cash in vault. "Two-thirds of the money in city banks is country money. Thirty-five of the fifty billion or so In the Hanover Bank of New York is deposits of 'country customers.' This ratio holds good of all. "This money is used to control Wall street and the trusts. "Insurance money is another of the three great rivers of cash which flow into the cities and control the corporations which control the country. It's an endless chain by which the country produces all the wealth and turns it over to the cities. The Object of Rate Legislation. "legislation aids the cities. "Legislation as to meat, pure food and all that sort of thing means in the end ouly the trusts can do business. The country butcher can't afford the elaborate plant demanded bylegislation. • "The big concerns are the only ones in any line that have moneyenough to keep quality up and prices down. "Rate legislation will concentrate wholesaling by making it Impossible for wholesalers to ship goods. from any except great cities like New York, Chicago and St. Louis, where the political organizations are that control congress. "The railroads are the friends of the country. Not from friendly, motives. They are as selfish as the rest of the trust but their prosperity depends on the prosperity of the country people. So they build up the country, settle new fields, stimulate agriculture, cattle-raising, manufacturing and wholesaling, and thus create traffic. The more business and population are scattered the better for the railroads and the better for the country. "Railroads want legislation that will distribute prosperity through the country, and the cities want legislation that will concentrate prosperity in the cities." "The Private Car Helps the Country." "What do you think of the private car question?" was asked. "Legislation against the private car is legislation against both .the vegetables and meat," he replied. "It aims to give control of perishable products to city commission merchants. "They had this control before the private car took It away from them. The private car system carries fresh fruit, vegetables and meat from where they were produced direct to where they are consumed, guaranteeing prompt delivery in good condition, securing a universal market at fair prices and distributing hundreds of millions of dollars to the farmer, cattle and fruit raiser through applying business methods to the shipment and selling of his products and leav* Ing the control of those products In his own hands. "Abolish the private car! As well abolish the express and postal systems and compel each railroad to have Its own express company and its own postal service." "The Railroads Will Not Replace the System." "But will not the railroads put In a refrigerator car system of their own?" "No." "Why not?" "Weil, in the words of General Manager Mohler of the Union Pacific, no railroad could possibly afford to have refrigerator cars enough to send them out over ail the other railroads as it would have to do, to take the'prace of the present private car system, and no railroad would undertake to be responsible for products shipped in Its refrigerator cars over other lines and the consequence would be that the producer would find It Impossible to get cars when he wanted them and also Impossible to place any responsibility for the shipment of his products except over the one particular railroad that tapped his territory." "What do you think is the remedy for the conspiracy of the cities?" "The Remedy Is Agitation" "Agitation. Let the people understand the true situation and they will put the power back where it belongs." "Where is that?" "With the country people—those who produce the commodities and wealth of the country and who should have the supreme say as to the management of the enterprises which are conducted solely for the purpose of handling their products. That is all any of the railroads or trusts or private car systems exist for." "Then you think the people can control these things if they try?" "Of course they can. The country people are an overwhelming majority. They are two-thirds of the total population. When it comes to intelligence they are the people of this country who have the brains and the ability to solve great questions same as they have the industry that creates the wealth of the nation. They cap control all money, all legislation, every railroad, every trust, every insurance company, They have but to realize this fact in order to have the country people know their tremendous power." "How can they be made to realize it?" "Through the country press.

Kafue river is 266 miles north of Victoria (alls, and the distance from Cape Town Is 1,908 miles. The railroad, however, is now at Broken hill, 347 miles beyond the falls, the line having been pushed on while the bridge was building over the Kafue river. P U T T I N G IT RATHER ROUGHLY.

"I am as methodical in my work," said the Boston writer, "as any business man. My daily task3 are so diversified and so arranged that I am able to afford myself considerable variety during the 12 hours per diefn that I employ in authorship. For instance, from eight in the morning to ten I do my verse; from ten to 12 my criticisms; from three to five I am enraged upon a history of the world intended for perusal by children."

Grape-Nuts was recommended as a food that could be easily digested. "Leaving the old diet that had given me so much trouble, I began to eat Grape-Nuts with a little cream N and sugar. The change effected in 24 hou/a was truly remarkable, and in a few weeks I was back to health again.

A platform was erected in a fence corner on the premises of the fictim"B father, from which platform 3ov. Hey ward addressed the mob in in effort to prevent the lynching. The governor beseeched the mob not to Jynch Davis, but in vain. At the conclusion of his speech the governor was vociferously cheered. The mob then removed the prisoner from the view of the governor and within a short distance of the home of his victim the negro was riddled with bullets, It is impossible to estimate the crowd, as citizens from several counties had. gathered at the scene and for two days had been in pursuit of the negro, &ut it is certain that hundreds of bullets were sent through his body. 'V : The militia in that section. of the state is now encamped at Chickamauga and there were no nearby troops to be called upon. The governor's guards and the Richland volunteers of this city had been ordered to hold themselves in readiness in the event that their services were needed, but the mob. was determined. The assault by Davis on Miss Brooks was made last Tuesday in her father's store, where she was temporarily in charge. After making some purchases the negro grasped a meat knife, shouting, "You are what I want," and sprang toward the girl. Miss Brooks attempted to defend herself with an iron bar, but the negro slashed her across the throat, making a gash four inches long, and almost severed two of her fingers. Afterward he went three miles to another farm and outraged a 14-yearold negress. A posse of a thousand men started in pursuit of the negro soon after the outrage at the Brooks store and finally captured him Thursday afternoon, near Ninety-Six, a town nine miles from Greenwood.

Transmission of Facial Characteristics It would appear that the transmission of facial traits subordinate to a definite law, that is to say, that ancestral facial expression and appearance are more often than not transmitted through the female members of the family, who generally do not exhibit the same characteristics to the male offspring, and that the younger generations show, as a rule, all the facial conditions and signs which were present in a remote an* cestor.—North American Review. GOOD COLORS FOR HOUSES. It is not generally known—not even among painters—why certain tints and colors wear much better than others on houses, and the knowledge of just what tints are best to use is, therefore, rather hazy. One writer on paint, in a recent book, says that experiments seem to show that those colors which resist or turn back the heat rays of the sun, will protect a house better than those which allow these rays to pass through the film. Thus red is a good color because it turns back, or reflects, the red rays, and the red rays are the hot rays. In general, therefore, the warm tones are good and the cold tones are poor, so far as wear is concerned.. In choosing the color of paint for your house, select reds, browns, grays and olives which, considering the various tones these tints will produce, will give a wide range from which to choose. Avoid the harsh tints, such as cold yellows (like lemon), cold greens (like grass green, etc.), and the blues. It must be understood that no virtue is claimed for tints in themselves, irrespective of the materials used in the paint. Any color will fade, and the paint will scale off, if adulterated white lead or canned paint is used, but if one is careful to use the beBt white lead—some well-known brand of a reliable manufacturer—and genuine linseed oil, the warm tints mentioned above will outwear the same materials tinted with the cold colors.

That at least some people believe it has no excuse is proved by the following tale: An ancient rabbi came to a city where all the people were truthful, married one of the inhabitants, had two children and prospered. One day a neighbor called when the rabbi's wife was washing her head, and the rabbi, going to the door, was seized by false modesty and said that she had gone out. Thereupon both of his children died, and, aB no one died in that city before reaching old age, the neighbors made Inquiries, the rabbi confessed what he had done, and was ordered to leave the city immediately.

Forttver hirty Years CASTORU THE LAXATIVE OF KNOWN QUALIT* There are two classes of remedies: those of known quality and which are permanently beneficial in effect, acting: gently, in harmony with nature, when nature needs assistance; and" another class, composed of preparations of unknown, uncertain and inferior character, acting temporarily, but injuriously, as a result of forcing: the natural functions unnecessarily. One of the most exceptional of the remedies of known quality and excellence is the ever pleasant Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig: Syrup Co., which represents the active principles of plants, known to act most beneficially, in a pleasant syrup, in which the wholesome Californian blue figs are used to contribute their rich, yet delicate, fruity flavor. It is the remedy of all remedies to sweeten and refresh and cleanse the system gently and naturally, and to assist one in overcoming constipation and the many ills resulting therefrom. Its active principles and quality are known to physicians generally, and the remedy has therefore met with their approval, as well as with the favor of many millions of well informed persons who know of their own personal knowledge and from actual experience that it is a most excellent laxative remedy. We do not claim that it will cure all manner of ills, but recommend it for what it really represents, a laxative remedy of known quality and excellence, containing nothing of an objectionable or injurious character. There are two classes of purchasers; those who are informed as to the quality of what they buy aud the reasons for the excellence of articles of exceptional merit, and who do not lack courage to go elsewhere when a dealer offers an imitation of any well known article; but, unfortunately, there are some people who do not know, and who allow themselves to be imposed upon. They cannot expect its beneficial effects if they do not get the genuine remedy. To the credit of the druggists of the United States be it said that nearly all of them value their reputation for professional integrity and the good will of their customers too highly to offer Imitations of the Genuine—Syrup of Figs manufactured by the California Fie Syrup Co., and in order to buy the genuine article and to get its beneficial effects, one has only to note, 'when purchasing, the fuU name of the Company- California Fig Syrup Co.—plainly printed on the front of every package, Prke, 60c per bottle.

Tho old watchmaker of u 'small town In the west of England recently retired, and the contract for keeping the church and town hull clocks in order wasvgiven to bis successor. Unfortunately from the start the new man experienced a difficulty in getting the clocks to strike at the same time. At last the district council requested an Interview with the watchmaker. "You are not so successful with the clocks as your predecessor," he w a s told. "It Is very misleading to have one clock strike three or four minutes after the other. Why, before you took them In hand we could hardly tell the two were striking. Surely you are as competent as Mr. H." "Every workman has his own methods, gentlemen," replied the watchmaker, "and mine ain't tho siune as H.'s were." "I'm decldedty of^fte-ojmiioathat it would be for the general good if they were," remarked one of the councilors. "Very well, sir; in the future they shall be," came the reply. "1 happened to write to Mr. H. lastvweek about the trouble I had with the clocks, and— b u t perhaps." he added as he produced a letter and handed it to the chairman, "you'd like to see wtfat he said." ,f- "Dear Sir (ran the letter)—About them clocks.

IRISH omens loturer, Mich, AT ClSPATCH OFFICE EVENTS NOTED BUSINESS MAN OF MIO FLEES THE COUNTRY UNDER A CLOUD. MAN OF POWERIN COUNTY. The Lake Linden Mystery Is Not Cleared and a New Theory of the Missing Boy's Fate Is Advanced. Noble's Flight. A shortage in accounts with the government, involuntary bankruptcy proceedings, $20,000 worth of debts and an action for divorce-i-tbese in brief are the causes which led to the recent disappearance of Frank T. Noble, former postmaster at Mio and the best known man in Oscoda county. A few months age no man was more respected than' Frank Noble. He had a big business, a fine home; he was the political power of the county; his credit was unquestioned; his friends legion. Now in Oscoda county Frank Noble has hardly a friend left, his business is in the hands of a receiver and he escaped criminal prosecution only by his timely flight for parts unknown. '.' The general store which Noble ran for years has been closed. A new postmaster will goon be appointed. Noble resigned by letter a few weeks ago. The Noble home is in the name of his wife so that can't be touched. Everything else that belonged to the missing man has been gathered la by the creditors. But Noble is a long way from penniless, according to his former friends. His business was largely done with sheep raisers. During the year he would advance groceries and other necessities on the promise of wool when shearing time came around. Just before he left Mio Noble is said to have shipped about- 15,000 pounds of wool to Jackson, subject to his own order. It is presumed he sold this wool. And beside that he had some $1,300 intrusted to him by friends. Was Baby Killed by Hunters? The disappearance of the 3-year-old Karvela boy of Lake Linden is the most mysterious in the history of the copper district. Proceeding with other children to meet his father, who lives at the Allouez location, the little boy sat down in the woods beside the road, while his small companions continued on their way. The youngster was tired ajad could go no further. He was cautioned to remain- where he was, yet from that day to this no clue to his whereabouts has been discovered. There are all sorts of rumors and theories afloat. One belief is that he has been stolen, despite that his parents are poor people, because if he had merely wandered away it would have been impossible for one of his years to have strayed out of the area which has been covered so paintakingly by the searchers. If he were dead from exposure or hunger his body would have been yielded up to the search. If an animal—and there have been wolves reported in the vicinity— had devoured him traces of his clothing would have been found. So, it is argued, it must have been that he was carried away by some one. A still more horrible theory is that the child was killed by hunters in mistake for game, and was buried so that they might escape the legal penalty of 10 years in prison. Though hundreds of men have engaged in the search, and the territory in the vicinity of the spot where the child was last seen, ltf days ago, has been thoroughly beaten for miles around, no trace of the lad has been found. Only Four Survive. * Four survivors constitute the full remaining strength of Saginaw's two companies, loo strong, in the famous "Fighting Fifth"' that Michigan font to the civil war, and' these veterans will attend a reunion of the regiment at Owosso August 29. They are D. KHalsey, sergeant of police; John Monroe, Francis Otto and Andrew Heinlein. The two local companies were named the East Saginaw Volunteers and the Saginaw City Light artillery. Henry YV. Trobridge was captain of the former, Co. C, and Henry Miller, of Co. K. They were mustered into service August-2^. 1S61, and fought continuously throughout the war. Out of the regiment of 900 men less than half returned. Girl Wife Seeks Divorce. Vera Hamilton Henniker, married at 13 years, a mother at 14, separated from her husband at 15, now at the age of 16 has applied for a divorce on the ground of desertion. She lives with her parents in Delta township, Eaton county. George Henniker, of Ingham county is her husband and he was aged 20.when they were married October 22, 1903, in Charlotte, after being refused a license in Ingham county. A girl was born to them December 23, 1904, and was later adopted by Rev. and Mrs. Win. Hollis, of the M. E. church at Munith. Isaac Cicero, machinist, of Cheboygan, was nursed through several weeks' illr.esss at Mercy hospital, Bay City, and given employment; then, it Is charged, be stole two watches from a patient and a nurse who attended *»*n. He was arrested. BOILER LET GO. Father and Son Killed, Grandchildren Injured. Father and son were killed outright and two children were seriously hurt in a boiler explosion at a mint still xxi the farm of William Mohney, three miles east of Three Rivers at 10 o'clock Wednesday morning. All were employes at the still, Mr. Mohney and his son were working with the engine, the boiler failing to operate properly. Without warning it let go with a terrible report. Other members of the family rushed from the house and found the mangled remains of the two men lying on the ground nearly 30 feet from the wrecked engine. The two children were unconscious from their injuries and Dr. Knowles was summoned from Three Rivers. They will probably recover. William Mohney had lived in Three Rivers all his life and leaves a widow and several children. Roy Mohney leaves a widow and five children, the two oldest of whom were hurt. IN THE PUBLIC A WIDELY CELEBRATED TARIFF REFORMER MICHIGAN IN BRIEF. Genesee county Socialists have nominated a full county ticket. Nashville will hold a two-day harvest festival, August 31 and September 1. Farmers report the watermelon and canteloupe crops will be short, due to dry weather. Qulncy mine workers resume work, after being on strike for three weeks, at wages offered by the company. Ernest Wetterau, a New Buffalo shoe cobbler, while in a drunken frenzy, stabbed and fatal)-/ wounded his son. Chris Washousan. reputed 102 years old, is more or less actively engaged in farming near Morrice. Age has bent him nearly double. The man killed by a Grand Rapids street car Sunday night was Philip Cummings, an employe of the United States gypsum mine. Some one, to vent spite on Harry King, a Flint teamster, tried to strangle his horse with a chain by tying it up Bhort to a manger. Coming home week will be celebrated August 27 to September 1. in Eaton Rapids. Gov. Warner and Gov. Cummins, of Iowa, will attend. John Colemmorgan, mourned dead at his home in La Port, Ind., is in Jail in Cassopolis charged with horse stealing. H.is parents believe him insane. Niles is threatened with an ice famine. Wurz Bros., the only dealers, say their supply is nearly exhausted and that they are unable to buy a pound elsewhere. Tillie Kramer, aged 16, of Menominee, swallowed laudanum with suicidal intent while walking on the beach with her lover, with whom she had quarreled. She may recover. The amphibious habits of a Lansing auto with a bursted tire caused it to plunge into an artificial lake, pinning its driver, Ray C. Backus, in its works, and nearly drowing him. Port Huron druggists have posted notices that they will sell postage stamps to none but regular customers. They attribute the extra demand for stamps to the comic postcard fad. The president of the village of South Range and the council are at war over the retention of the village police chief. The chief_executj.ve wante him ousted; the board thinks he is all right. Ex-Gov. Bliss' condition is improving, after a relapse early in toe week. I His physician predicts that if he withstands the summer's'heat he will re-1 gain his health when cool weather I comes. j John Eckman, of Calumet, well j known as mining expert, may die at j Georgetown. Col., from a paralytic | stroke induced by knockout drops ad- : ministered to him in a saloon, where j he was robbed. No 'trace of the bodies of Guy ^Var-j ner and Ella Squires, who were sup- | posed to have been drowned at Reid's | lake Thursday night, has yet been 1 found. The belief that perhaps they j have eloped is gaining ground. The ' lake was dragged all day, but without result. Mrs. J. W. Lewis, of Battle Creek, is 'dead as the result of the prick of a needle. Blood poisoning followed the puncture and for three weeks great agony was endured, death following at Nichols" hospital. She was- 70 years old and a pioneer school teacher of Battle Creek. In attempting to stop a runaway team of horses belonging to her son, Mrs. Bertha Hennegar, of Kewadin, aged 59 years, was knocked down and run over, receiving injuries that resulted in death. The tongue of the wagon was driven through the woman's breast. Formaldehyde has been discovered in colored matter used by ice cream venders in the northern part .of the state. One arrest has been made by the state dairy and food department. It is claimed that formaldehyde in quantities sufficient to \^ dangerous was found in crushc."' strawberries used by the dealer. Representatives of the Armour Fruit Co. are in western Michigan, arranging- for the handling of the Michigan peach crop. They report that the peaches will not yield over 40 per cent of a luli crop, but that apples and grapes will be heavy. There is sharp competition between the rail and boat J lines for the hi»»ln«sa. 1 We speak of the Englishman, Joseph Chamberlain, who recently, on the occasion of the celebration at Birmingham of his seventieth birthday, sent out this characteristic message to the nation: "Treat foreigners as they treat us and treat your kinsmen better than you treat foreigners." Joseph Chamberlain is immensely popular and Immensely unpopular, but appears equal to coping with both friend and foe. When assailed as he was so strongly during the Boer war and its preceding and subsequent problems, his cool, cynical meeting of attacks opposed formidable front to those that attempted to down him. Early In his career he was three times elected mayor of Birmingham, and during his terms of office carried through many public Improvements in the face of obstinate opposition. In 1885 he became member of parliament, soon won distinction, became widely known by reason of the advocacy of popular reforms. For a time he was the recognized elader of ttie Radical party; but later organised the Liberal Union party which supported the Conservatives, and was called "renegade" by the Home Rulers. In 1888 he came to this country as chief commissioner; effected an agreement in the Canadian fisheries dispute. This same year he married an American woman, daughter of W. E. Endicott, secretary of war. In 1891 we find Mr. Chamberlain leader of the Liberal Union party in the Commons. In the "coalition ministry" of the Marquis of Salisbury he became colonial secretary and proved himself most zealous in developing the interests of the British colonies An ardent disciple of the new diplomacy, Joseph Chamberlain has labored assiduously for an Anglo-American alliance. Plague of Belgian Hare* The prediction that the Belgian bar* fad would lead to the creation of a public pest has ben realized in complaints that come from Benningtoa county, Vermont, where farmers are suffering from the depredations af rabbits and have no redress. 'Tha» man who loses 1,000 head of cab bag*,, as in Dorset, has his opinion of people who freed their Belgian hares after It had been found unprofitable to rear them. ••% * THE ADVENTURES OF GENERAL DIAZ The long, peaceful, highly successful career of President Diaz is not so picturesque as his life the years preceding the occupancy of the presidential chair. And it may be of interest to go back to the days prior to modern, progressive Mexico— modern and progressive largely by reason of the man at' the helm—and note the adventures experienced by Porflrlo Diaz. It would seem the count of Monte Cristo had no*more call for daring and resourcefulness than Diaz a*d in that period when Mexico was struggling t o reach a national existence. During his soldier days Diaz, was thrice made a prisoner and thrice made romantic escape. The first time he broke away from Hip captors and on horseback dashed over a high stone wall. The second time he Outwitted his jailers In'the closely guarded prison at Puebla, stole out by night on to the roof of the building where he was confined, then along other roofs and then down a rope in safety to the ground. The last trial and victory was experienced on board a vessel as he was returning from his first visit to the United States. Among the fellow passengers were numbers of his enemies, bitter enemies only longing for a chance to do him harm. Knowing he must forfeit liberty, and perhaps life, as soon as the boat landed, he drew to his aid the purser, with this officer arranged a plot that Included a pretense of jumping overboard. The enemies thought he had thus sought escape from them, while really he was safe hid in a box-couch in the purser's room and listening to the surmises of his foes. President Diaz' mother was a full-blooded Indian, his father of good Spanish- American blood; and thus the different elements of the country are represented in "Don Porflrlo," as the Mexican people affectionately call their ruler. Revolutionary Relic. James R. Putnam, while at work 1» f. his garden at Rutland, Vt., picked u p ^ ~ ' a bra8s button about an inch in diarneter. When it was cleaned it wa* found to be a military button in a good, state of preservation. It is flat, with the word "Massachusetts artillery" around the edge of the face. In ^ the center In relief is a cannon mounted on wheels and beside a flag on a. staff. The button is a revolutionary relic. +^ / Most Marvelous of Birds. The swift flying swallow is ever oa the wing. It has attained the perfection of speed, without friction and noiseless. Every motion is directed to its swooping flight for insects—now darting upward, to right, to left so rapidly that the eye cannot follow It —and its nervous organism must be wonderfully constructed to act upon a delicate and certain mechanism devised for swift flight. . \ Just Wanted to Have It Around. Old Donald Mackintosh was ill. The. minister was with him. He listened with patience to-the latter's exhortations, but at length put a question: "Will there be whisky in heaven?" "Certainly not," the minister replied. "I am surprised that you should ask such a question." "Weel, sir, it's no that I care for "t mysel', but it looka weel on the table!" University Five Hundred Years Old. On December 4, 1909, it will be 5W years since the University of Leipsic was organized by the secession of several thousand German students from the University of Prague. Arrangements are already being made to celebrate this semimillennium by the licatiori of a massive work on the history of the city and the University of Leipsic. Easy to Rebuild.

It was this bit of brutality which enabled her to single out Wlnton in the throng of workers. He heard the blow, and the oath that went with it, and she saw him run forward to wrench the bludgeon from the bully's hands and fling it afar. What words emphasized the act she could not hear, but the little deed of swift justice thrilled her curiously, and her heart warmed to him as it had when he had thrown off his coat to fall to work on the derailed engine of toe "Limited." "That was fine!" she said to herself. "Most men in his place wouldn't care, ao long as the work was done, and done quickly. I wonder If—oh, you startled me!" It was Mr. Somerville Darrah again, clothed upon and In his right mind; otherwise the mind of a master of men who will brook neither defeat at the hands of an antagonist nor disobedience on the part of his following. He was scowling-fiercely across at the Utah activities when she spoke, but at her exclamation the frown softened into a smile for his favorite niece. "Startled you, eh? Pahdon me, my deah Virginia. But as I am about to startle someone else, perhaps you would better go in to your aunt." She put her hand on his arm. ^'Please let me stay out here, Uncle J Somerville," she said. "I'll be good and not get in* the way." He shook his head, rather in deprecation than refusal. "An officer will be here right soon now to mane an arrest. There may be a fight, or at least trouble of a sort you wouldn't care to see, my deah." "Is it—is it Mr. Winton?" she asked. He nodded. "What has he been doing—besides being 'The Enemy?' " The Rajah's smile was ferocious. "Just now he Is trespassing, and directing others <ko trespass, upon private property. Do you see that dump up there on tne mountain?—the hole that looks like a mouth with a long gray beard hanging below it? That is a mine, and its claim runs down across the track where Misteh Winton is just now spiking his rails." "But the right of way; I -don't- understand," she began; then she stopped short and clung to the strong arm. A man in a wide-flapped hat and cowboy chapparajoes, with a revolver on either hip, was crossing the stream oij the ice bridge to scramble up the embankment of the new line. "The officer?" she asked, in an awed whisper. The Rajah made a sign of assent. Then, Identifying Winton in the throng of workers, he forgot Virginia's presence. "Confound him!" he fumed. "I'd give a thousand dollars if he'd faveh me by showing fight, so we could lock him up on a criminal count!" "Why, Uncle Somerville!" she cried. But there was no time for reproaches. The leather-breeched person masquerading as the Argentine town marshal had climbed the embankment, and singling out his man was reading his warrant. Contrary to Mr. Darrah's expressed hope, Winton submitted quietly. With a word to his men—a word that stopped the strenuous labor-battle as suddenly as it had begun—he turned to pick his way down the rough hilltide at the heels of the marshal. For some reason that she could never have set out in words Virginia was distinctly disappointed. It was no part of her desire to see the conflict blaze up in violence, but it nettled her to see Winton give up so easily. Some .^ »uch thought as this had possession of ^ fear while the marshal and his prisoner A*J*» picking their way across the ice, "* v atfnbhe was hoping that Winton would gtr% fctr a chance to requite him, if only with a look. But it was Town Marshal Peter Biggin, affectionately known to his constituents aa "Bigginjin Pete," who gave her the coveted opportunity. Instead of dllsappearing decently with his captive, the marshal made the mistake of his life by marching Winton up the track to the private car, tfcrMtinc bin forward and saying: other side of the canyon began again How Emperor William Is Battling with renewed vigor. The Rajah threw j Against a Dangerous Heredity, up his head like a war horse scent- Emperor William's father died of cancer ing the battle from afar and faid his, of the throat. commands upon the long-suffering "Here's yer meat, Guv'nor. What-all 'ud ye like fer me to do with hit?" Now it is safe to assume that the Rajah had no intention of appearing thus openly as the instigator of Winton's arrest. Hence, if a fierce scowl and a wordless oath could maim, it is to be feared that the overzealous Mr. Biggin would have been physically disqualified on the spot. As it was, Mr. Darrah's ebullient wrath could find no adequate speech forms, and in the eloquent little pause Winton had time to smile up at Miss Carteret and to wish her the pleasantest of good mornings. But the Rajah's handicap was not permanent. "Confound you, seh!" he exploded. "I'm not a justice of the peace. If you've made an arrest, you must have had a warrant for it, and you ought to know what to do with your prtsoneh." "I*m dashed if I do," objected the simple-hearted Mr. Biggin. "I allowed you wanted him." Winton laughed openly. "Simplify it for him, Mr. Darrah. We all know that it was your move to stop the work, ah i you have stopped it—for the moment. What is the charge and where is it answerable?" The Rajah dropped the mask and spoke to the point. "The cha'ae. seh, is trespass, and it uncle's reply to this cool defiance. Contrary to all precedent, it was mildly expostulatory. "It grieves me, seh, to find you so determined to cou't failure," he began; and when the whistle of the upcoming Carbonate train gave him leave to go on; "Constable, you will find transpo'tation for yourself and one in the hands of the station agent. Misteh Winton, that is your train. I wish you good morning and a pleasant journey. Come, Virginia, we shall be late to ouh breakfast." Winton walked back to the station at the heels of his captor, cudgelling .his brain to devise some means of getting word to Adams. Happily the technologian, who had been unloading steel at the construction camp, had been told of -the arrest, and when Winton reached the station he found his assistant waiting for him. But now the train was at hand and time had grown suddenly precious. Winton turned short upon the marshal. "This is not a criminal matter, Mr. Biggin; will you give me a moment with my friend?" The ex-cowboy grinned. "Bet your life I will. I ain't lovin' that old b'ller-buster In the private car none too hard." And he went in to get the passes. "What's up?" queried Adams, forgetting his drawl for once In a way. "An arrest—trumped-up charge of trespass on that mining claim up yonder. But I've got to go to Carbonate to answer the charge and give bonds, just the same." "Any instructions?" "Yes. When the train is out of sight and hearing, you get bac- over there and drive that track laying for every foot there is in it." Adams nodded. "I'll do it, and get myself locked up, I suppose." "Faveh me, Jastrow. Get out there and see what they are doing, seh." The secretary was back in the shortest possible interval, and his report was concise and business-like. "Work under full headway again, in charge of a fellow who wears a billycock hat and-smokes cigarettes." "Mr. Mort i P. Adams," said Virginia, recognizing the description. "Will you have him arrested top, Uncle Somerville?" But the Rajah rose hastily without replying and went to hjs office stateroom, followed, shadow-like, by the obsequious Jastrow. It was some little time after breakfast, and Virginia and the Reverend Billy were doing a constitutional on the plank platform at the station, when the secretary came down from the car on his way to the telegraph office. It was Virginia who stopped him. "What do we do next, Mr. Jastrow?" she said—"call in the United States army?" For reply he handed her a telegram, damp from the copying press. It was addressed to the superintendent of the C. k G. R. at Carbonate, and she read it without scruple. "Have the sheriff of Ute county swear in a dozen deputies and come with them by special train to Argentine. Revive all possible titles to abandoned mining- claims on line of the Utah Extension, and have Sheriff Deckert bring blank warrants to cover any emergency. "DARRAH, V. P." "That's one of them," said the secretary. "I daren't show you the other." "Oh, please!" she said, holding out her hand, while the Reverend Billy considerately turned his back. Jastrow weighed the chances of detection. It was little enough he could do to lay her under obligations to him, and he was willing to do that little as he could. "I guess I can trust you." he said, and gave her the second square of press-damp paper. Like the first, it.was.addressed to the superintendent at Carbonate. But this time the brown eyes flashed and her breath came quickly as she read the vice president's cold-blooded afterthought: * "Town Marshal Biggin will arrive in Carbonate on No. ail this a. m. with a prisoner. Have our attorneys see to it that the man is promptly jailed in default of bond. If he is set at liberty, as he is likely to be, I shall trust you to arrange for his rearrest and detention ;at al' hazards. r "D."

Wlnton's smile showed his teeth. "That remains to be seen," he countered, coolly. The Rajah waved a shapely hand towards the opposite embankment, where the track, layers were idling in silent groups waiting for some one in authority to tell them what to do. "We can do that every day, Misteh Winton. And each separate individual arrest will cost your company 12 hours, or such a matteh—the time required for you to r_o to Carbonate to give bond for your appearance." During this colloquy Virginia had held her ground stubbornly, this though she felt intuitively that it would be the greatest possible relief to the three men if she would go away But now a curious struggle as of a divided allegiance was holding her. Of course, she wanted Mr. Somerville Darrah to win. Since he was Its advocate, his cause must be righteous and just. But as against this dutiful convlncement there was a rebellious hope that Winton would not allow himself to be beaten; or, rather, it was a feeling that she would never forgive him If she should. So It was that she stood with face averted lest he should see her eyes and read the rebellious hope in them. And9 notwithstanding the preeaution he both saw and read, and made answer to the Rajah's ultimatum accordingly. THE STATION AT THE HEELS OF HIS CAPTOR. "No, you won't; that's the beauty of it. The majesty of the law—all there is of It In Argentine—goes with me to Carbonate in the person of the town marshal." "Oh, $ood—succulently good! Well, so long. I'll look for you back on the evening train?" "Sure; if the Rajah doesn't order it to be abandoned on my poor account."

Virginia took th? first step in the perilous path of the strategist when she handed the incendiary telegram back to Jastrow. "Poor Mr. Winton!" she said, with the real sympathy in the words made most obviously perfunctory by the tone. "What a world of possibilities there Is masquerading behind, that little word 'arrange.' Tell me more about it, Mr. Jastrow, How will they 'arrange' it?" "Winton's rearrest? Nothing easier in a tougn mining camp like Carbonate, I should say!" 'Yes, but how?" —'-^r-eanH prophesy how Grafton will go about it, but I know what I should do." Virginia's smile was irresistible, but there was a look in the deepest depth of the brown eyes that was sifting Mr. Arthur Jastrow to the innermost sand heap of hi3 desert nature. "How would you do it, Mj. Napoleon Jastrow?' she asked, giving him the exact fillip on the side of gratified vanity. "Oh, I'd fix him. He is In a frame of mind right now; and by the time the lawyers are through drilling him in the trespass affair, he'll be just spoiling for a row with somebody." "Do you think so? Oh, how delicious! And then what?" "Then I'd hire some plug-ugly to stumble up against him and pick a quarrel with him. He'd do the rest— and land in the lockup." (TO BE CONTINUED) WAS A L T O G E T H E R TOO T A M E .

A fine room has been fitted up in the basement for a chemical and physical labaratory with tables for work and cases tor chemicals, tool6 and instruments. This room has been badly needed for year; and we are glad Mr. Gaul took it in hand to push it through and the board bad the "gall" to spend a little money assisting him. Mr. Gaul not only superintended the work of arranging the new room, but put on his "workin" clothes and put in several days hard work. In fact he has put in most of his vacation doing something for the good of the sc-bool the coming year, tie and the board have worked hard to build up a good school here and the citizens of Pinckney and vicinity have some-' thing to be proud of.

The State Agricultural Society has kept pace with the progress of the state, each succeeding exhibition showing a marked advancement, each better than the one previous. Earlier Days. In the earlier years It was the custom of the society to locate the yearly fair In a city, somewhat remote from where the fair was held the year previous, believing that in this way alone would these expositions of Improved stock and agricultural products be brought nearer the greatest number of "people. Lack of transportation and great expense made it difficult for farmers to travel long distances. As the state grew and the means of travel were Increased, the fair was held In some of the larger cities and trade centers. A number of exhibitions were held on the grounds In' the suburbs of Lansing, that being thought the proper . center for all the people, it being the capital city. But in 1905, after a somewhat extended but friendly contest the society decided upon Detroit, the metropolis of the state, as the place ifor a permanent location of the great fair. A plat of nearly 150 acres lying at the north of the city adjoining "Woodward avenue, the leading thoroughfare of the city, was purchased, and the work of preparing the rough fields for an exposition park was begun. Fair of 1905. "When the dates for the 1905 fair 'Came about, the buildings were few and incomplete, little had been accomplished in the way of grading and beautifying the grounds, though three fine buildings had been erected and the grand stand and mile track fitted for the'races. A goodly part of the showing was in improvised structures and in tents. Nevertheless the exhibition excelled those of other years; and the attendance greatly outnumbered the guesses of the wildest and most optimistic of prophets. It proved the wisdom of the men who had given rise to the movement and had consummated their plans in locating the society to give its annual fair upon permanent grounds adjacent to the first city of Michigan scrreadily reached by steamrailways, electric cars and by boat from several sections of the state. This patronage showed an appreciation by the people of the city and state and ;gave assurance that future efforts ^rould merit even a greater interest by •exhibitors and a far larger attendance. Transformation. But the State Fair grounds of today are far different from those which *he visitors at previous exhibitions of the Michigan State Agricultural. Society have known. A magnificent park, with its acres of velvety green lawn, with the many sweeping driveways tad walks, beds of flowering plants •Ed innumerable groups of foliage plants and ornamental shrubbery has seemingly (owing to the few months given to preparation) sprung into being as if from the hand of enchantment. To get a fair conception of this exposition ground one would need to 4iee it, and to walk the ways of its avenues under many beautiful elms, and to devote' hours in observation of the fine buildings that grace the expansive "beauty spot." Instead of this the writer would in fancy take you with him from the heart of Michigan's metropolis out Woodward avenue on one of the modern rapid observation trolley cars, passing through Grand Circus Park, on past the hundreds of attractive homes of leading citizens, -crossing the picturesque Grand Boulevard, with its miles of resplendent loveliness, on in view, of the fashionable Boston Boulevard, out through Highland Park village, touching delightful Palmer Park, within' sight of the famous Log Cabin for so many years the pride of Senator Thomas W. Palmer, and in a minute or two you alight at the gates of the society's exhibition grounds that stretch away to , the eastward presenting an unparalleled scene of beauty. Arrangement of Groups. Entering at the west, one approaches the stately Michigan ^Building that occupies a conspicuous place In the fore- *cound. In tale apaclfestructure one <caa meet his friends, perhaps sit down 'for a little chat, visit the ore and mineral display on the ground fioon^nd the art exhibit on the second. You can splendid brick 70x160 feet; the horse stables, to accommodate 300 animals, both on the right, with the grove of oak nearly opposite, in which is the magnificent band pavilion facing to the east. On north and to the left are nine long white barns, each 80x24 feet, five being devoted to cattle, two to sheep, and two to swine. The last two have concrete floors. At the end of this street are four more stables for speed horses, back of which is a fine stretch of forest. Passing back south over the same course is the Poultry Building, 40x150 feet, that contains S00 coops. The Administration Building, 70x160, then take the main walk that leads is of brick, situated to the south of the Main Hall, which is 100x220 feet in area. To the east of this largest structure is the Dairy Building, 40x150 feet, an airy, well lighted frame show hall with concrete floors, and containing a large glass refrigerator for the display of fine .dairy products. Leaving thfs you find yourself on the "Glade," that live avenue of mirth and gaiety, where a number of lively yet refined shows and exhibitions will be given. Joining this is the booth and. lunch mom section—-every feature has Its own neighborhood here—and to the east of which is the mammoth grand stand that comfortably seats nearly 10.,000 people, and the new bleachers that provides for about 2,000 more. A fine ornamental iron fence separates these from the course, which is a feature of the grounds, being 90 feet wide and a mile in' extent with thrown-up turns, built after the most modern fashion. Within the course la a well sodded plot upon which various special free entertainments provided by the society will be given. Other features will be presented here afternoons during the racing program.

Orders Adoption of System In All Official Documents of„the Government. Oyster Bay, N. Y. — President Roosevelt has indorsed the Carnegie spelling reform movement. He Issued orders Friday to Public Printer Stillings that hereafter all messages from the president and all other documents emanating from the white house shall be printed in accordance with the recommendation of the spelling reform committee, headed by Brander Matthews, professor of English at Columbia university. This committee has published a Hat of 300 words in which the spelling is reformed. This list contains such words as "thru" and "tho" a the spelling for "through" and "though." The president's official sanction of this reform movement Is regarded as the most effective and speediest method of inaugurating the new system of spelling throughout the country. Not only will the printed documents emanating from the president utilize the reform spelling, but his correspondence also will be spelled In the new style. Secretary Loeb has sent for the list of 300 words which have been* reformed and upon its arrival will immediately order all correspondence of the president and of the executive force of the white house spelled in ac-. cordance therewith. As the spelling reform committee shall adopt new reforms they will be added to the president's list and also to that of the public printer. While the order to "the printer does not contemplate an immediate reform in the spelling of official documents from the executive departments in Washington, it Is regarded-that more than likely the respective heads of the department will fall in line with the president's ideas and have their official documents printed in the _new spelling. TAFT WANTS TO BE PRESIDENT Secretary of War to Decline Place on Supreme Bench. Washington.—William H. Taft, retary of war, will formally communicate to the president in a short time that he does not desire the honor of an appointment to the supreme court bench. He will send notice in time for the president to make a selection before the fall term of the supreme court opens in October. Mr. Taft's indorsement for the presidency by the Ohio Republican state convention is practically assured. He has been considered one of the most prominent possibilities by Ohio Republicans, and in view of Speaker Cannon's reiterated declaretions that he would not be known as a candidate, the secretary's plan of action is considered most significant at this time. The Ohio Republicans have been quietly booming Mr. Taft for the presidency for months. By every possible method they have been advancing his cause, even going so-far, it is understood, as to solicit a public expression from him on the subject of his candidacy. Mr. Taft has fought shy of the subject, but the latest development places him more conspicuously before the public. SAYS REBATES WERE PAID. Standard Oil and Railroad Company Indicted in New York. Jamestown, N. Y.—The federal grand jury investigating alleged violations of the Elkms rebate law by the Standard Oil company, the Pennsylvania Railroad company, and the New York Central Railroad company in the state met here Friday and returned two Indictments, one against the Standard Oil company, the other against the New York Central. The charges against the Central are covered in a single count, although, according to the theory of the prosecution, the company equally is guilty with the Pennsylvania company in granting rebates. The charge of failure to file with the interstate commerce commission, as required by law, a schedule of rates, which evidence taken by the grand jury indicates, was maintained. The Standard J}i} company was again Indicted on a charge of accepting unlawful and discriminating freight rates on shipments of oil over the Pennsylvania, the New York Central and the Vermont Central railroad companies. The indictments are closely related to those found by the same jury two weeks ago against the Standard Oil company and the Pennsylvania in the matter of discriminating rates for oil shipped by the Standard from Olean to Burlington, Vt. All of such shipments were over the Pennsylvania from Olean to Rochester; over the New York Central from Rochester to Norwood, N. Y., and over the Vermont Central from Norwood, to its destination.

Schools Spreading tn China. A few years ago the foreign mlaeionary schools were practically, the only institutions in Foochow offering facilities for the acquisition of western learning. There are now at least 30 native schools fashioned after the foreign model. Foochow is a city of 600,000 Inhabitants, and these schools embrace about 2,000 students. Posters placarded all over the city advertise the opening of various modern schools, which are springing up in every nook and corner of the place. Scarcely a week passes without the announcement of the opening of a new school. HE MADE T H E OPPORTUNITY STORM DAMAGES GRAVEYARD Cemetery Grounds Flooded and 200 Bodies Exposed to View. Kansas. City^Mo.—A terrific rainstorm prevailed in" Kansas- City- and vicinity early Thursday. In. Kansas City 5.93 Inches of water fell, a record for the time, three hours and a half. -Low lyteg4ands~were flooded and the police and fire departments were called upon to rescue persons from basements in Little Italy, in the north end of town, and in the east and west bottoms, where the water entered many small houses. Several downtown basements were flooded and goods damaged. At Elmwood cemetery, five miles east of the business district the entire cemetery grounds were flooded, and in the lower ground a strong current was formed. This resulted in the washing out of dosens of graves. At least 200 bodies were exposed. Monuments were wrecked and other damage done. LYNCHING JURY FAILS TO AGREE Little Likelihood of State Continuing Case at Springfield, Mo. Death of Henna's Brother-in-Law. Cleveland, O.—Jay C. Morse, at one time president of the Illinois Steel company and brother-in-law of the late Senator M. A. Hanna, died here Wednesday of a complication of diseases.* Mr. Morse was associated with the late Col. C. M. Pfckands in an Immense Iron ore and coal business, and he amassed a large fortune. Springfield, Mo.—The jury in the case of Doss Galbraith, the alleged leader of the mob which lynched and burned three negroes here in April last, and who was on trial charged with second degree murder, was discharged by the court Friday when it reported that its members were unable to agre. After the jury was discharged its members freely admitted that the vote stood ten for acquittal and two for conviction. Twenty ballots were taken and there was no change after the first ballot. It is not believed the state will try the case again. Death Ends Suffering. Tomahawk, Wis.--C. 0.. Ramsey, district superintendent for the United States Leather company, died.

A distinguished educator of Boston, who once visited a western college during examination week, was, for some reason or other, not asked to address the students, as he had expected he would be. In chapel he was merely requested to lead in prayer, which he did in this wise: "Be pleased, father in Heaven, to guide the steps of the president of this college. Thou knowest that he was a clasmate of Thy servant, a graduate of the class of *'84, taking high honors. Thine eye hath looked with favor upon the happy choice that resulted in his appointment, with the consent of the trustees, as the head of this institution. Thou knowest that the students of this college ought to look- upon him as a friend as well as their president. Thou knowest that thy servant Is well pleased with the high standards of scholarship here prevailing and with the righteousness and loyalty of the sto> dents." Finally, to the intense delight of the students, the visitor concluded his prayeras -follows: And I thank Thee for this opportnnlty to address the students of thia college." GOOD-NtGHT'S SLEEP. No JHesUckie so Beneficial to Brain and Nerves. Lying awake nights makes it hard to keep awake and do things in day time. To take "tonics and stimulants" under such circumstances is like setting the house on fire to *ee if you can put it out. The right kind of food promotes re* freshing sleep at night and a wide awake individual during the day. A lady changed from her old way of eating, to Grape-Nuts, and says: "For about three years I had been a great sufferer from indigestion. After trying several kinds of medicine, the doctor would ask me to drop off potatoes, then meat, and "sooon, but in a few days that craving, gnawing feeling would start up, and I would vomit everything I ate and drank. "When I started on Grape-Nuts, vomiting stopped, and the bloating feeling which was so distressing disappeared entirely. • * "My mother was very much bothered with diarrhea before commencing the Grape-Nuts, because her stomach was so weak she could not digest her food. Since using Grape-Nuts she is well, and says she don't think she could live without it. "It is a great brain restorer nerve builder, for I can Bleep aq and undisturbed after a sui Grape-Nuts as in the old daj I could not realize what, they meant by a "bad stomach."

To the Editor: *s I noticed somewhere recently—I would not say positively that it was In your columns—an article on the White House which contained several misstatements. In the first place? It was stated the White House was first occupied in 1809 and that its first occupant waa President Madison. The fact is, its first ooeupant was President Adams, who teek up bis residence there in lgfo.-*:. .;.... The original mansion was begun in 1792. In 1814 ft was burned by the British and rebuilt in 1818. ..Another of the errors in the article referred to was the statement that ready-prepared paint i» used on the Whit.e' House ,tp make it beautifully wfcite. .V- ^ noticed .thfs especially because T have used considerable pafcat -myself and wondered that "canne4'\ paint should be sjsed-.on such an important, building when all painters know that - pu»e whitehead and linseed oil make tk&JMst paint - - It so happened also that I knew white lead and linseed oil—not readymixed paint—were used on the "White House, because I had just read a booklet published by a firm of ready-mixed paint manufacturers who also manufacture pure white lead. In that book the manufacturers admitted that for the White House nothing but "the best and purest of paint could be used," and said that their pure white lead had been selected. Above all people, those who attempt to write on historical subjects should give us facts, even if it is only a date or a statement about wood, or brick, or paint, or other building material. Yours for truth, L GIANT RADISHES OF THE EAST There the Vegetable Grows to an Enormous 8ize. Radishes in North' China and in Japan are as important and ubiquitous a part of every meal as is bread in America. In both countries many millions of .bushels of this vegetable are grown every year, and they are to be had at all seasons. It is thus easy to understand why these parts of the world grow the strangest and biggest radishes known. The giants beside the little French Breakfast, our favorite American variety, are but babies beside the monsters they grow under the warm, moist influences of the oriental climate. These radishes are grown on American soil from seeds imported by the United States department of agriculture from China. They take well to the American climate, and probably would have weighed five pounds when full grown. When these fellows are grown in China they rapidly form a great brilliant red globe eight to ten inches in diameter and weighing sometimes 20 pounds. Another kind is snow white and grows a foot long, and still another is a brilliant green on the outside and a beautiful wine red when the skTrTTs-cut: Some—of—4hesectrange vegetables are exceedingly delicate in flavor and texture when grown under favorable conditions.

A Mien, woman tried Postum Food Coffee because ordinary coffee disagred wtih her and her husband. She writes: "Hy husband was sick for three years with catarrh of the bladder, and palpitation- of the heart, caused by coffee. Was unable to work at all and in bed part of the time. "I had stomach trouble, was weak and fretful so I could not attend to my housework—both of us using coffee all the time, and realizing XL was harmful. "One morning the grocer's wife said she believed coffee was the cause of our trouble and advised Postum. I took It home rather dubious about what my husband would say—he was fond of coffee. "But I took coffee right off the table, and we haven't used a cup of it since. You should have seen the change in us, and now my husband never complains of heart palpitation any more. My stomach trouble went away in two weeks after I began Postum. My children love it and it does them good, which can't be said of coffee. "A lady visited us who was always half sick. I told her I'd make her a cup of Postum. She said It was tasteless stuff, hut she watched me make it, boittng it thoroughly for 15 minutes, mad when done she said it waa splendid. Long boiling brings oat the flavor and food quality." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read.the little book "The Road.to WeUrille/'inpkgs, "There's a reason." THE WHITE RIVER COUNTRY. In the opinion of o«a who has traveled much and observed closely, the most truly and rightfully contented people In the United States to-day are the small landowners In what is known as the Upper White River Country, any what* from Newport, Ark.; to Carthage,'Me, They are contented because their surroundings are ideal and, until recently, the great, uneasy, disquieting world, with its artificial needs and inadequate compensations, has been to them but little more tangible than a, dream, .Here, still existent, and by reason of ^heir very rarity at this day and time more delectable than in the past, are the conditions which have ever appealed with irresistible force to the Independent-spirited"' Anglo-Saxon. Every man is the supreme ruler of his own little prin- (cipajity; acknowledging no master jsave the law-—and, possibly Bis feminine helpmeet; cringrag to no emipioyer; asking no favors from the world, save those that his neighbors freely extend and expect as freely in return. He lives In a latitude where toe extremes of heat or cold are never known, and at an altitude that insures perfect health. The richest bounty of Nature has been showered upon him with unsparing hand, but It is a question whether he more than dimly realizes the fact. He accepts as a matter of course the fertile soil which produces in abundance every cultivable growth common to the north temperate zone, the surrounding forests of valuable woods and the underlying stratas of precious minerals, the springs and streams of translucent purity on every hand, the wealth of fish and game at his very door, such as less favored mortals annually travel hundreds of miles to find. He is contented, but small credit is his for that, for how could he well be otherwise than content? It is sad that such idealistic conditions may not continue, but it is written that the present possessors of this favored land must soon give place to others more appreciative of its incomparable features. A railroad has recently cut its way through the best of this region, and the unaccustomed rustle of bank notes and chink of coin will eventually tempt the hill-dweller to part with his birthright. So it has always been in the world's history—the good things that are ours without price invariably pass from our hands before we come to understand their value. The White River country will shortly be discovered anew by a class of immigrants better capable of judging its possibilities— the men who seek modest homes where the "lay of the land" will effectually prevent crowding by too close neighbors, where their cat* tie can fatten on free range, where the wealth of forest and mine awaits development by intelligent workers, and where the game and fish offer enjoyable recreation to all who have leisure and inclination for soort- His Only Concern. A well known member of the New York bar, a man of most patronizing manner, one day met John G. Carlisle, to whom he observed loftily. "I see, Carlisle, that the supreme court has overruled you in the case of Mulllns versus_Jenkinson. But,'' he added, in his~grand way, "you; Carlisle, need feel no eoncern about your reputation." Carlisle chuckled. "Quite so," he agreed. "I'm only concerned for the reputation of the supreme court."— Harper's Weekly. Alum Baking Powder Is Wholesome. Dr. Herman Reinbold, the expert German chemist, in a recent official report concerning Baiting Powders, declares that a pure alum baking powder is better, and less injurious than the so-called cream of tartar powders. He says that if the quantity of alum contained in a sufficient quantity of baking powder for a batch of bread or cakes for an ordinary family, be concentrated to one mouthful of food, and taken into the stomach of any one person, no matter how delicate, it could do no harm. On the contrary, alum is wholesome In proper quantities. This is undoubtedly the reason the State of Missouri quickly repealed a law that prohibited the manufacture of the most wholesome of all baking powders. So much for Alum Baking Powders.

BABY COVERED WITH SORE8. Would Scratch and Tear the Flesh Unless Hands Were Tied—"Would Have Died But for Cuticura." "My little son^when about a year and a half oldTbegaa^to have sores come out on hisMace. I had a physician treat him, but the sores grew worse. Then they began to come on his arms, then on,other parts of his body, and then one came on his chest, worse than the others. Then I called another physician. Still he grew worse. At the end of about a year and a half of suffering he grew so bad I had to tie his hands in cloths at night to keep him from scratching the sores and tearing the flesh. He got to be a mere skeleton, and was hardly able to walk. My aunt advised me to try Cuticura Soap and Ointment. I sent to the drug store and got a cake of the Soap and a box of the Ointment, and at the end of about two months the sores were all well. He has never had any sores of any kind since.

The growth of a tumor is ao sly that frequently its presence is not suspected until it is far advanced, So-called "wandering' pains" maycome from its early stages, or the* presence of danger may be made manifest by profuse monthly periods, accompanied by unusual pain, from the abdomen through the groin and thighs. If yon have mysterious pains, if there are indications of inflammation or displacement, secure a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound right away and begin its use. Mrs. Pinkham, of Lynn, Mass., will give you her advice if yon will write her about yourself. She is the daughter- in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham and for twenty-five years has been advising sick women free of charge. Deaf Mr*. Pinkham:— " I take the liberty to congratulate you on tiie success I have had with yoar wonderful medicine. Eighteen months ago my periodsatopped. Shortly after I felt so badly that I submitted to a thorough examination by a physician and was told that I had a tumor and would have to undergo an operation. •' Soon after I read one of your advertisementa and decided to give Lydia E.

He demanded $H0 a ton gold, and as the rate of exchange was then $2.85 this made the price $S0 a ton of Uncle Sam's money. "The officers protested and refused to take the coal: They put to sea, hoping to reach another port before their stock gave out, but after a run of a few hours the weather began to get nasty, and there was nothing for it but to put back and buy 1.000 tons of the Scotchman's coal. "He said that he liked the United States and sympathized with the north In the war. but he had been sitting on that coal pile for a long time waiting for an American ship to come along. and sympathy didu't buy things."— New York Times.

In telling of the various means of self advertisement adopted by certain authors a critic says that Alexandre Dumas, tlie elder, delighted to appear la the uniform of the national guard of France, with medals pinned to his breast, though It is doubtful whether his motive was anything deeper than a vain childish delight In gauds. 'Tie was tfie sort of man," one of his enemies once remarked, "who was capable of riding behind his own carriage in order to prove .that he kept a negro in his service." A certain literary person once appeared In the stalls of a London thea ter wearing a Jeweled brooch In his long hair, but be was anticipated in thi« respect by Theophile Gautler, whose many colored waistcoat was always* the most conspicuous object hi any theater which he entered, and even by Disraeli, with his rings outside his gloves and his green trousers.

A custom has prevailed in t! is. district, fcr many years, under which the Candidate for state senator is chosen from each legislative district in this senatorial r district in t u r n . The candidate was chosen fram the first district of Genessee county last term, and under the rule should be chosen Irom the second district of Oene>- see county this term. The above is copied from the Flint Journal. In addition we wish to say in behalf of Livingston "ounty that under the above custom lias regularly every third term nominated a state senator for this district. We believe it to be lor the best interest of this senatorial district and particularly in the interest of hannony that Mr. Allen should be nominated. We fail to see the for^e of the ai gum ?nt, that Dr. R u m e r should be given a second Term in as much as he knew when nominated and elected two years ago th .t it was a one term office, and probably know*, that no senator from tin- senatorial district has had two terms in twenty-five yeors. Dr. Rumer should be satisfied with his term and then step aside and wait until tlie nomination comes to his district We think the sentiment o\ the Republicans of this county will be d»videdlv along these line's, for the reason that under the argument this nominaticn goes to the second Legislative District el Genessee county, and Mr. Alien is the only candidate from that district.

I n that Interesting volume the following original bit of natural history is t o be found: "In t h e Connecticut river, 200 miles from Long Island sound, is a narrow of five yards only, formed b y t w o shelving moun tains of solid rocc, whose tof s intercept the clouds. Through this chasm are compelled to pass all the waters which In the time of floods bury the northern country.

Your Nerves It is your nerves that cause the heart to pulsate, the lungs to inhale the oxygen, the brain to direct the motion of every organ of the body, the stomach to digest food, the liver to secrete the bile; the kidneys to filter the blood, and the bowels to carry off the waste. When the nerves of the stomach become weakened it results in stomach trouble, indigestion, constipation. ^ This Is true of all the organs of the body, and proves that to cure til n e w you must strengthen the nerves. Dr. Miles' Nervine will do it. It seldom fails to cure aH" nervous affections, Sleeplessness, Neuralgia, Headache, Backache, Epilepsy, Stomach, Liver and Kidney troubles. "I was all broken down, nervous, worn out, and in constant, pain. I doctored for months, and firfally the doctor said he could do nothing for me. I took Dr. Miles' Nervine, and it made me strong and healthy; now weigh 170 pounds." H. C. CUNNINGHAM, Allegheny, Pa. The first bottle will benefit, if n o t tlM druggist will return your money.

Rabbi Levlnthal Is one of the best-known men in Philadelphia, and is respected for his good works by the Christian ministers of that city quite as much as he is by his own people. For the past 15 yearB he has been the rabbi of the United Orthodox Hebrew congregations of Philadelphia, and the founder of many of the Hebrew institutions of that city. He is founder and vice president of the Orthodox Rabbinical Association of AmericaT~~Drr-Levinthaf-waa born In A^ilna, Russia, in 1866.

The Russian navy has figured more prominently in the internal disturbances of that, country than the army. This is especially true of the sailors of the Black sea fleet who have within the past few, months taken extreme measures to aid the. revolutionists ashore, and the red flag of anarchy has been hoisted at more than one Russian masthead. Now the czar proposes if possible to squelch this spirit of rebellion among his sailors'and has assigned Admiral Nicholas Skrydloff to the command of the Black sea fleet, giving to him special powers to restore order and maintain discipline. Admiral Skrydloff has been a conspicuous figure in the Russian navy for a number of years. During the war with Japan he was sent East to that naval command at Port Arthur after the death of Makaroff, but was unable to reach that place, and during the Japanese war spent most of his time at Vladivostok. He is known as the "bulldog admiral," and distinguished himself during the TurklBh war by daring torpedo-boat attacks that paralyzed the sultans monitors. He also took part In the pacification of Crete, commanded the Russian Pacific squadron In the operations against the Boxers, and represented the Russian navy at the diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria. SkrydloC was born in 1844. He wears the cross of St. George for his heroism on the Danube. Baseball as a Tonic.

'Those who knew her best said it f%na a warning to be heeded, in Miss VirginiaCarteret when her eyes were downcast and her voice sank to its softest cadence. "Why, certainly; how simple!" she Mid, taking her cousin's arm again; Md the secretary went in to set the wires at work in Wlnton's affair. Now Miss Carteret was a woman in •very fiber of her, but among her gifts She might have counted some that were, to say the least, super-feminine. One of these was a measure of discretion which would have been fairly creditable in a past master of diplomacy. So, while the sympathetic part of her was crying out for a chance to talk Wlnton's threatened danger over with some one, she lent herself outwardly to the Reverend billy's mood—which was one of scenic enthusiasm; this without prejudice to a growing determination to intervene in behalf of fair play for Winton If she could find a way. But the way obstinately refused to discover itself. The simple thing to do would be to appeal to her uncle a sense of justice. It was not like him to fight with ignoble weapons, she thought, and a tactful word in season might make him recall the order to the superintendent. But she could not make the appeal without betraying Jastrow. She knew well enough that the secretary had no right to show her the telegrams; knew also that Mr. Somervllle Darrah's first word would be a demand to know how she had learned the company's business secrets. Regarding Jastrow as little as a highbred young woman to whom sentiment is as the breath of life can regard a man who is quite devoid of it, she was still far enough from the thought of effacing him. To this expedient there was an unhopeful alternative: namely, the sending, by the Reverend Billy, or, In the last resort, by herself, of a warning message to Winton. But there were obstacles seemingly insuperable She had not the-faintest notion of. howsuch a warning should be addressed; and again, the operator at Argentine was a Colorado & Grand River employe, doubtless loyal to his salt, in which case the warning message would never get beyond his waste basket. "Qettlng too chilly for you out here? —want to go in?" asked the Reverend Billy, when the scenic enthusiasm began to outwear itself. "No; but I am tired of the sentry-go part of it—ten steps and a turn," she confessed. "Can't we walk on .the track a little way?* Calvert saw no reason why they might not, and accordingly helped her over to the snow-encrusted path between the rails. "We can trot down and have a look at their construction camp, if you like," he suggested, and thitherward they went. There was not much to see, after all, as the Reverend Billy remarked when they had reached a coign of vantage helow the curve. A string of use-worn bunk cars; a "dinkey" caboose serving as the home on wheels of the chief of construction and his assistant; a crooked siding with a gang of darkskinned laborers at work unloading a car of steel. These in the immediate foreground; and a little way apart, perched high enough on the steep slope of the mountain side to be out of the camp turmoil, a small structure, half plank and half canvas—to-wlt, the end-of-track telegraph office. It was Virginia who first marked the boxed-up tent standing on the slope. "What-do you suppose that little house-tent is for?" she asked. "I don't know," said Calvert. Then he saw the wires and ventured a guess which hit the mark. "I didn't suppose they would have a telegraph office," she commented, with hope rising again. **Ok, yes; they'd have to have a wire; one of their own. Under the circumstances they could hardly use He was gone before she could reply —across the ice bridge spanning one of the pools, and up the rough, frozen embankment of the new line. There were armed guards here, too, as well as at the front, and one of them halted him at the picket line. But Adams saw and recognized him, and presently the two were crossing to where Virginia stood waiting. • Eheu! what a little world we live in, Miss Virginia! Who would have thought of meeting you here?" said the technologian, taking her hand at the precise elevation prescribed by good form—Boston good form. "The shock is mutual," she laughed. "I must say that you and Mr. Winton have chosen a highly unconventional environment for your sketching field." "I'm down," he admitted, cheerfully; "please don't trample on me. , But really, it wasn't all fib, .Jack does do things with* pencil—ether things he-[artistic way, sides maps and working profiles, I mean. Won't you come over and let here a minute and I'll call him for you." -Jof the rails from the car to the bench'' es; took her up into the cab of the big "octopod" locomotive; gave her a chance to peep into the camp kitchen car; and concluded by handing her up the steps of the "dinkey." "Oh, how 'Comfortable!" she exclaimed, when he had shown her all the space-saving contrivances of the field offlee. "And this is where.you and Mr. Winton work?" "It Is where we eat and sleep," corrected Adams. "And speaking of eating: it is hopelessly the wrong end of the day—or it would be in Boston— but our Chinaman won't know the difference. Let me have him make you a dish of tea," and the order was given "before she could protest. "While we are waiting on Ah Poo I'll show you some t>l'Jack's sketches," he went on, finding a portfolio- and opening it upon the drawing board. "Are you quite sure Mr. Winton won't mind?" she: asked. "Mind? He'd give a month's pay to be here to show them himself. He is peacock vain of his one small accomplishment, Winton is—bores me to death with it sometimes." J'Really?" was the mocking rejoinder, ancT~they~begair-to iook at the sketches. They were heads, most of them, impressionistic studies in pencil or pastel, with, jiow and then a pen-and-ink bearing evidence of more painstaking after-work. They were made on bits of map paper, the backs of old letters, and not a few on leaves torn from an engineer's note book. '"ftey don't count for much in an said Adams, with the brutal frankness of a friendly critic, "but they will serve to show you that rirs. *No," she rejoined, absently. She acannlqg tho group of steel hani t the hope that a young man ifc .aMtty-cock nat and with a cigar- M N f M his lips would shortly reiij^lflmself. She found him after a time and turned quickly to her cousin. "There is Mr. Adams down there by Che engine. Do you think he would come over and speak to us if he knew we were here?" The Reverend, Billy's smile was of honest admiration. "How could you doubt It? Wait me do the honors of the stud*?" with a grandiloquent arm-sweep meant to include the construction camp in general and the "dinkey" caboose in particular. It was the Invitation she would have angled for, but she was too wise to assent too readily. "Oh, no; I think we mustn't. I'm afraid Mr. Winton might not like It." "Not like it? If you'll come he'll never forgive himself for not being here to 'shoot up' the camp for you In person. He is away, you know; gone to Carbonate for the day." "Ought we to go, Cousin Billy?" she asked, shifting, not the decision, but the responsibility for it, to broader shoulders. "Why not, if you care to?" said the athlete, to whom right-of-way fights were mere matters of business in no wise conflicting with the social ameliorations. Virginia hesitated. There was a thing to be said to Mr. Adams, and that without delay; but how could she say It with her cousin standing by to make an impossible trio out of any attempted duet confidential? A willingness to see that Winton had fair play need not carry with it an open desertion to the enemy. She must not forget to be loyal to her salt; and, besides, Mr. Somervllle Darrah's righteous indignation was not lightly to be ignored. But the upshot of the hesitant pause was a decision to brave the conse- Suences—all of them; so she took alvert's arm for the slippery crossing of the ice bridge. Once on his own domain, Adams did the honors of the camp as thoroughly and conscientiously as if the hour held no care heavier than the entertainment of Miss Virginia Carteret Hi explained the system under which the material was kept moving forward to the ever-advancing front; let. her watch the rhythmic swing and slide CAN YOU SEND ALL T H A T ? " I wasn't aH kinds of an embroiderer when I was telling you about Winton's proclivities the other day." "I shouldn't apologize for that, if I were you," she retorted. "It is well past apology, don't you think?" And then: "What is this one?" They had come to the last of the sketches, which was a rude map. It was penciled on the leaf of a memorandum, and Adams recognized it as the outline Winton had made and used in explaining the right-of-way entanglement. "It is a map," he said, "one that Jack drew day before yesterday when he was trying to make me understand the situation up here. I wonder why he kept it? Is there anything on the other side?" She turned the leaf, and they both went speechless for the moment The reverse of the scrap of cross-ruled paper held a very fair likeness of a face which Virginia's mirror had oftenest portrayed; a sketch setting forth *J| a few vigorous strokes, of the pencil the impressionist's ideal of the g o d - dess fresh from We bath." "By Jove." exclaimed Adams, when he could find the word for his surprise. Then he tried to turn it off lightly. "There is a good bit more of the artist in Jack than I have been giving him credit for. Don't you know, he must have got the notion for that between two hah-seconds—when you recognized me on the platform at Kansas City. It's wonderful!" "So very wonderful that I think I shall keep it," she rejoined, not without a touch of austerity. Then she added: "Mr. Winton will probably never miss it. If he does, you will have to explain the best way you can." And Adams could only say "By Jove,!" again, and busy himself with pouring the tea which Ah Foo had brought in. In the nature of things the teadrinking in the stuffy "dinkey" drawing- room was not prolonged. Time was flying. Virginia's errand of mercy was not yet accomplished, and Aunt Martha in her capacity of anxious chaperon was not to be forgotten. Also, Miss Carteret had a feeling that under his well-bred exterior Mr. Morton P. Adams was chafing like any barbarian industry captain at this unwarrantable intrusion and interruption. So presently they all forthfared into the sun-bright, snow-blinding out-ofdoor world, and Virginia gathered up her courage and took her dilemma by the horns. "I believe I have seen everything now except that tent-place up there," she asserted, groping purposefully for her opening. Adams called up another smile of acquiescence. "That is our telegraph office. Would you care to see it?" The technologian was of those who shirk all or shirk nothing. "I don't know why I should care to, but I do," she replied, with charming and childlike willfulness; so the three of them trudged up the slippery path to the operator's den on the slope. Not to evade his hospitable duty in any part, Adams explained the use and need of a "front" wire, and Miss Carteret was properly interested. "How convenient! ' she commented. "And you can come up here and talk to anybody you like—Just as if it were a telephone?" "To anyone in the company s service," amended Adams. "It is not a commercial wire." "Then let us send a message to Mr. Winton," she suggested, playing the part of the capricious ingenue to the very upcast of a pair of mischievous eyes. 'Til write it and you may sign it." Adams stretched his complaisence the necessary additional inch and gave her a pencil and a pad of blanks. She wrote rapidly: "Miss Carteret has been here admiring your drawings. She took one of them away with her, and I couldn't stop her without being rude. You shouldn't have done it without asking her permission. She says—" "Oh, dear! I am making it awfully long. Does it cost so much a word?" "No," said Adams, not without an effort. He was beginning to be distinctly disappointed in Miss Virginia, CHAOS RULES IITCITf REFUQEK8 IN CHILI, FIQHT VALPARAISO, FOtf POOD. sypPUE$ INSUFFICIENT. Cemeteries Destroyed and Authorities Unable to Bury Victims—Town of Quillota 8tnke Out of Sight. Valparaiso.—Chaos rules in Valparaiso and martial law is unable to keep order. The scores of thousands of homeles, famine stricken refugees fight in the streets for food. The army and navy officers are working heroically to bring order out of chaos, but they are fearfully handicaped. The injured are still without adequate medical care, in spite of the tireless energy of army, naval and private surgeons and nurses. Food supplies axe insufficient, but are increasing. The minister of the interior has ordered all ships in Chilian ports to proceed to Valparaiso with food and bring away refugees. A regular relief service has been established. Cattle shipments are on the way. Frontier train service has been established from Talca. Supplies of meat and milk are arriving regularly but not in quantities sufficient to prevent hunger. Estimates of the number of dead 11 remain between 3,000 and 5,000. Twenty-eight bodies were found Wednesda^ under the stairway of the telegraph offlrt Meat and Bread Scarce. Meat and bread are scarce. Meat Is now being distributed by the authorities. Tbe grocers' shops that were not destroyed by the earthquake are now nearly out of stock. Canned' meats, sardines, condensed milk and biscuits are much needed. As a first Installment the government has appropriated $4,000,000 for the relief of the destitute. One of the greatest difficulties encountered by the authorities Is the Interment of the bodies recovered from the ruin3, as all the cemeteries were destroyed. At the various temporary morgues heaps of coffins have accumulated, awaiting- the designation of their place of burial. The work of recovering the bodies is being pushed to the utmost in order to avoid an epidemic. The total number of corpses buried jp to Tuesday, August 21, was 648. The main post office has been reopened. Every Wall Ruined. At Llai Llai there is not a single wall in good condition. There, were 30 persons, kiiled there. At Cabildo the'railroad station was damaged. At Quillota many buildings were prostrated. The earthquake was severe at Con- ' con and Coimo. The dead in those places number 25.. ' ' The work of bringing order out of chaos is progressing rapidly and the telephone and telegraph lines have his chief. Meanwhile she went on writing: "—I am to tell you not to get into any fresh trouble—not to let anyone else get you Into trouble; by which I infer she means that some attempt will be made to keep you from returning on the evening train." "There, can you send all that?" she asked, sweetly, giving the pad to the technologian. ^ Adams read the first part of the letter- length' telegram with inward groanings, but the generous purpose of it struck him like a whip blow when he came to the thinly veiled warning. Also it shamed him for his unworthy, judgment of Virginia. "I thank you very ueartlly, Miss Carteret," he said, humbly, "it shall be sent word for word." Then, for tae Reverend William's benefit: "Winton deserves all sorts of a snubbing for taking liberties with your portrait. I'll see that he gets mere of it when he comes back."

Electric cars already are running between Baron station and Recro, and probably the opration of cars will be extended to Vina del Mar. A movement is on foot to organize a company to facilitate the raising of the money necessary to reconstruct the city. It is proposed to advance the sums needed without interest for the first six months. The plan is to construct the new buildings of light materials and to lay out the streets so that they will have a uniform width of 20 meters. The department of public works at Santiago has appropriated 1100,000 for the construction of sheds to shelter the refugees from Valparaiso and elsewhere who continue to arrive there.

We publish the following by request, as the deceased was well known by many of our readers: Died August 4,1906, at Marthaville, La., W. Alfred Sprout, aged 24 years and 10 mouths, only son of Mr. and Mrs. William A. Sprout. W. Alfred Sprout was born in Putnam township, Livingston county, Michigan^December 17, 1881, where bis father, grandparents and many relatives have lived for many years and are well known. His education was pursued at home until 1896 when he entered tbe eleventh grade of the p inckney high school, ot which his father was for many years the principal. In DQC, 1897, he joined the graduating class of the Howell bigh school, graduating in June 1898, The next three years he spent in study and assisting bis father in then s*ore and on the farm. In Sept., 1902 he entered the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, intending to graduate in the medical department. In the spring of 1904 an epidemic ot measles broke oat among the students and he fell a victim to the disease, be ing very ill tor tour weeks, and his eyes were left so weak that he was unable to resume his studies, which was a great disappointment to him. He had made usual good progress in all Of his college work. Intending to specialize in brain and nerve disease..he went to the asylum at Pontiac, to sfudy such cases, v He entered the hospital a& an attendant. The physicians were very kind and helpful to,him, instructing bim with their experience. He remained there until an epidemic of smallpox broke out in February, when he returned home, soon securing a position as collector for the International Correspondence School, with headquarters at Adrian. A more lucrative position was later taken in the advertising department ot the Page Fence company, and afterwards with the Feohheim r Advertising company, of Detroit, which he left in Dec. 1905. to go with his sister to join their parent* in Marthaville, La., hoping to.regain his usual good health in a warmer climate. There occurred a vacancy of prinei pal in the Pleasant Hill college, the next town on the T. P. road; be was offered the position, and accepted, with his sister as assistant, giving the utmost satisfaction. He had his plans ail made to spend the summer in Michigan, then resume bis medical studies at the Tulare Uni versity, New Orleans, this fall, then next year return to Ann Arbor to finish. He was writing a book, which he extected to publish in the early autumn. All his earthly plans were ended with his departure from this world into a higher life with Christ, his Redeemer, on August 4, after beinjr lovingly cared for through 28 days of a rilild form of typhoid fever, which Gnly hastened the always fatal consumption of the spinal cord. He- leaves a father, mother and sis ter, to mourn the loss ot a devoted son, a tender comdanion and brother, a host of relative* and friends in Michigan and Louisiana. He was unusually gifted in every way^and with his sterling Christian character, cordial geniality, helpful n o s and sunny temperment, he gained tbe warm esteem and lasting regard of all with whom he became associated. In early childhood he took Christ his Great Example, Quid* and Saviour, and in March, 1903, he was confirmed io tbe Episcopal church, at Ann AroofT by tbe late Bisbjp Davies.

Dynes at Gallon, Monday. All of the officers at work on the case have come to that conclusion from the new evidence just obtained. We~k"noW who the nren are, but until we can join a few more links in the chain of evidence against them there will be no arrests. For this reason 1 cannot give out the nature of the evidence. However, I can give assurance that the men will be caught." Three Strange Men. Three strange looking men who acted suspiciously were seen at the Michigan Central depot in Galien by Presiding Elder D. F. Barnes, of Miles, shortly before Lloyd Dynes, the operator, was murdered. Mr. Barnes says he saw them between midnight and 12:40 a. m. "What do you want?" Dynes asked one of the fellows who entered the office, the elder says. "We're waiting for the train,*' he replied. "Want a ticket? I'll have to flag the train." "We don't need tickets. We have passes." Dr. Barnes says the men didn't board the train. What may prove a valuable clue was the finding of a blood-stained handkerchief bearing the laundry mark of Smith. It was found tucked under a platform leading from a, handcar house, about 200 yards west of the depot where Dynes was killed. There is no laundry in the place. Glen Smith, who keeps a general store, and is local manager of the Michigan State Telephone Co.. sleeps at the store nights to answer tele phone calls. From present indications the sheriff Is very reluctant to offer a reward, and inquiries as to whether any money will be offered for the arrest of the murderer met with evasive answers. Considerable excitement was occasioned among the large crowd that attended the funeral in Windsor when it was known that the mysterious widow that viewed Dynes' body was present, accompanied by her mother. The woman was heavily veiled, and after | again viewing the body took a seat in the rear parlor. When the services | were concluded she quietly disap- 8care Lest Michigan Growers Are to Magnus & Lauer, importers and manufacturers of essentia,! oils, of New York, have addressed letters to the attorney- general of the United States and to William L/oeb, secretary to the president, directing attention to a call for a meeting of the peppermint growers of Michigan, to be held lifKalamazoo, Mich., September 4, for the purpose of "fixing a minimum price for oil of peppermint," an article of interstate and export commerce. The letter says: "Being extensive buyers and exporters of this product, we take the initiative in respectfully asking you to take such measures as are in your power to prevent or suppress this combination, projected in defiance of the federal laws; and we furthermore respectfully suggest that the attorney of the United States for the district in which Kalamazoo is situated, be notified of the date of this meeting, September 5 next, and the place, the Kalamazoo house, Kalamazoo, Mich., so that he may take measures to insure the observation of the federal laws." The firm also says that the value of American peppermint oil consumed aunually varies from 4500,000 lo $1,000,- 000. The letter of Secretary Loeb calls attention to the communication to the attorney-general and asks tnat it be brought to the attention of the president. The firm has also written to Attoruey- General Bird, of Michigan, directing his attention to the matter. The American Society of Equity, familiarly known as the "Farmers' Trust/' and an outgrowth of the Farmers' Alliance, with head offices in Indianapolis, is behind the effort to fix | a minimum price for peppermint oil. The meeting was called by the president of the society. It will be distinctly a growers' gathering. Tnq A. M. Todd Co., the leading peppermint concern there, denies it is interested in the meeting or its results.

She is related to well-known families of both north and south, the Adamses and Everetts of New England, the Pottswoods and Lees of Virginia. She was born at Tuscumbia, Ala.; at the age of 19 months an illness left her blind and deaf.

The so-called Gibson drain controversy among Tuscola, Bay ana Saginaw counties, which has been in the courts for nearly a generation and has been appealed to the supreme court seven times in various forms of litigation, has been settled at a conference resulting in an amicable agreement among three counties. The drain will bo built jointly by Blumfteld township, Saginaw ctmnty: Merrick township, Bay county, and Denmark township, Tuscola county, at an expenditure of $25,000. The lawsuits, it Is estimated, have cost more than the expense of building the drain. The drain will be one.''of the largest and most valuable in this part of Michigan, opening up large tracts to cultivation and will, it is said, now be pushed to completion.

When first arrested Robinson gave his name as James Smith, but after admitting the name was fictitious, he was held for further investigation. In his possession were found a revolver, a gold watch, a draft for |75 on a Plain City bank, blank bank ?hecks and a grip full.of drugs. The police thought they had captured a notorious cropk and a careful investigation was made. A letter from J. W. Latham, marshal of Plain «ity, s a j s that Robinson is a resident of that city worth 120,000, and that the draft he carries is good. The marshal said that Robinson has been making a practice of "going on a bum" at certain interval* for years,, and that while on one of his trips he met with a railroad accident and lost one of his feet. Despite the acclderit, however, Robinson persists in traveling in box cars without paying any railroad fare and seemingly enjoys this style of travel. When arrested here he was fined for steeling a ride on a train, and after paying his fine was rearrested on a charge of trespass. He refused to pay the second fine and was sent to jail. * . K Taught.

Iter* the matter rested; and, baring what she conceived to toe her charitable duty, Virginia was aa anxious to get away aa heart—the heart of a slightly bored Reverend Billy, for instance—could wish. 80 they bade Adams good-by and picked their way down the frozen emnkment and across the ice bridge; wn and across and back to the Rosery, where they found a perturbed oiaperon in a flutter of solicitude arising upon their mysterious disappearance and long absence. "It may be, Just as well not to tell any of them where we have been," said Virginia in an aside to her cousin. And so the Incident of tea-drinking in the enemy s camp was safely pot away like a little personal note in its envelope with the nap gummed down. CHAPTER VI, While the technologian was dispensing commissary tea in iron-stone china cups to his two guests in the "dinkey" field office, his chief, taking the Rosemary's night run in reverse In the oompany of Town Marshal Biggin, was turning the Rajah's coup into a small Utah profit. Having come upon the ground late the night before, and from the opposite direction, he had seen nothing of the extension grade west of Argentine. Hence the enforced journey to Carbon^ ate only anticipated an inspection trip which he had Intended to make as soon as he had seated Adams firmly in the track-laying saddle. Not to miss his opportunity, at the first curve beyond Argentine he passed his cigar case to Biggin and asked permission to ride on the rear platform of the day cpach mr inspection purposes. "Say. pardnerL what do you take me fer, anyhow?" was the reproachful re- Joinder. "For a gentleman in disguise," said Winton. promptly. ••Sim'larly, I do you; savvy? You tell me you ain't goin* to stampede, and you ride anywhere you blame please. See? This here C. & O. R outfit ain't got no surcingle on me." Winton smiled.' '"I, haven't any notion of stampeding. As it happens, I'm only a day ahead of time. I should have mafle this run to-morrow of my own accord to have a look at the extension grade. You will find me on the rear platform when you want me.' "Good enough," was the reply; and Winton went to his post of observar tion. Greatly to his satisfaction, he found that the trip over the C. & G. R. answered every purpose of a preliminary inspection of the Utah grade beyond Argentine. For 17 of the 20 miles the two lines were scarcely more than a stone's throw apart, and when Biggin joined him at the junction above Carbonate he had his note-book well filled' with the necessary data. "Make It, all right?" inquired the friendly bailiff, "Yes, thanks. Have another cigar?" "Don't care If I do. S*y, that old Are-eater back yonder jp the private car has got a mighty pretty gal, ain't he?" "The young lady Is his niece," said Winton, wishing that Mr. Biggin would find other food for comment. "I don't care; she's pretty as a Jersey two-year-old." "It's a ftMW" observed Winton; * and then, to background Miss Carteret effectually as a topic, "How do the people of Argentine feel about the opposition to our rine?" "They're red-hot; you can put your money on that. The C. A O. R.'s a sure-enough tail-twister where there ain't no competition. Your road'll get every pounfl of ore in. the camp if it ever gets through." Winton made a mental note of this upcast of public opinion, and set it over against the friendly attitude of the official Mr. Biggin. It was very evident that the town marshal was serving the Rajah's purpose only because he had to. • ^p> _^^- ul suppose you stand with yonr ' r f ^ ^ M M K e n on that, don't you?" he venftttiN shouting; that's me." M tkat**Athe case, we won't take i i t o itttle Tollday of ours any harder %%'we can help, When the ottort business la settled—It won't take firy long—you are to consider youry guest. We stop at the Buok- 'a' told him to go to blazes with his warrant. Next time I will." Winton shook his head. "There isn't going to be any 'next time,' Peter, my son," he prophesied. "When Mr. Darrah gets fairly down to business he'll throw bigger chunks than the Argentine town marshall at us." By this time the train was slowing into Carbonate, and a few minutes after the stop at the crowded platform they were making their way up the single bustling stret of the town to the courthouse. "Ever see so many tin-horns and bunco people bunched in all your round-ups?" said Biggin as they elbowed through the uneasy, shifting groups in front of the hotel. "Not often," Winton admitted. "But it's the luck of the big camps; they are the dumping grounds of tb* world while the high pressure is on." The ex-range rider turned on the courthouse steps to look the 8idewa*K loung%rs over with narrowing eyes. "There's Sheeny Mike and Big Otto and half a dozen others right, there - Winton turned in his chair and saw the boy coming towards'him; also he saw the ruffian pointed out by Biggin from the courthouse steps and labeled "Sheeny Mike" lounging up to the clerk's desk* for a whispered word with the bedlamonded gentleman behind it. What followed was cataclysmal in its way. The .lounger took three staggering lurches towards Winton, brushed the messenger boy aside, and burst out in a storm of maudlin invective. "Sign yerself 'Winton* now, do ye, ye low-down,, turkey-trodden—" "One minute," said Winton, curtly, taking the telegram from the boy and signing for it. "I'll give ye more'n ye can carry away in less'n half that time—see?" was the minatory retort; and the threat was made good by an awkward buffet which would have knocked the engineer out of his chair if he had remained in it. Now Winton's eyes were gray and steadfast, but his hair was of that shade of brown which takes the tint of dull copper in certain lights, and he had a_temper which went with the red in his hair rather than with the gray in his eyes. Wherefore his attempt to placate his assailant was something less than diplomatic. "You drunken scoundrel!" he snapped, "if you don't go about your business and let me alone, I'll turn you over to the police with a broken bone or two! ' The bully's answer was a blow delivered straight from the shoulder— too straight to harmonize with the fiction of drunkenness. Winton saw the sober purpose In it and went battlemad, as a hasty man" will. Being a thaVt white—ml been ah inch or so more'n halt awake this morning when* that old b'llerr's hired man routed mt out, I'd kUT O' THIS, PRONTO!" in front o' the Buckingham that couldn't stay to breathe twice in Argentine. And this town's got a police!" the comment with lip-curling scorn. "It also has a county co\irt which 1B probably waiting for us," said Winton; whereupon they went in to appease the offended majesty of the law. As Winton had predicted, his answer to the court summons was a mere formality. On parting with his chief at the Argentine station platform, Adams' first care had been to wire newa of the arrest to the Utah headquaVteYs. Hence Winton found the company's attorney waiting for him In Judge Whltcomb's courtroom, and his release on an appearance bond was only a matter of moments. The legal affair dismissed, there ensued a weary interval of time-killing. There was no train back to Argentine until nearly five o'clock in the afternoon, and the hours dragged heavily for the two, who had nothing to do but wait. Biggin endured his part of It manfully till the midday dinner had been discussed; then he drifted off with one of Winton's'cigars between his teeth, saying that he should "take polsdn" and shoot up the town if ha could not find some more peaceful means of keeping his blood In circulation. It was a little after three o'clock, and Winton was sitting at the writing table In the lobby of the hotel elaborating •: hit hasty aote-book data of the morning's inspection, when a boy came 1¾^ with a telegram. The young engineer was not so deeply engrossed in his work as to be deaf to the colloquy. *" jftatcwHr^s^^ 1&a to the hoy's question; an* after an at the writing table." Rnt. Wintnn trna next .io..ha.. brought to his senses so easily. "Run away from that swine? Not if I know it. Let him take it into court if he wants to. I'll be there, too." The beaten one was up now and apparently looking for an officer. "I'm takin' ye all to witness," he rasped. "I was on'y askin' him to cash up what he lose to me las' night, and he jumps me. But I'll stick him if there's any law in thfs camp." Now all this time Winton had been holding the unopened telegram crumpled in his fist, but when Biggin pushed aim out of the circle and thrust him up to the clerk's desk, be bethought him to read the message. It was Virginia's warning, signed by Adams, and a single glance at the closing sentence was enough to cool him suddenly. "Pay the bill, Biggin, and join me in the billiard room, quick!" he whispered, pressing money into the town marshal's hand and losing himself in the crowd. And when Biggin had obeyed his instructions: "Now for a back way out of this if there is one. W*!W have to -take to the hlUa till. train time." They found a way through the bar and out into a side street leading abruptly up to. the fir-clad hills behind the town. Biggin held his peace until they were safe from immediate danger of pursuit. Then his curiosity got the better of him. "Didn't take you more'n a week to change your mind about pullin' it off with that tin-horn scrapper in the courts, did it?" "No," said Winton. " 'Taint none o' my business, but I'd like to know what stampeded you." "A telegram"—shortly. "It was a put-up job to have me locked up on a criminal charge, and so hold me out another day." Biggin grinned. "The old b'llerbuster again. Say, he's a holy terror, ain't he?" "He doesn't mean to let me build my railroad if he can help it." The ex-cowboy found his sack of chip tobacco and dexterously rolled a cigarette in a bit of brown wrapping paper. "If that's the game,' Mr. Sheeny Mike, or his backers, will be most likely to play it to a finish, don't you guess?" "How?" "By havin' a po-liceman layin' for you at the train." "I hadn't thought of that." "Well, I can think you out of it, I reckon. The branch train is a 'commodation, and it'll stop most anywhere if you throw up your hand at it. We can take out through the woods and across the hills, and mog up the track a piece. How'll that do?" "It will do for me, but there is no need of you tramping when you can just as veil ride." But now that side oi Mr. Peter Biggin which endears him and his kind to every man who has. ever shared his lonely roundups, or broken bread with him in his comfortles; shack, came uppermost. "What do you take me fer?" was the way it vocali;:ed itself; but there was more than a formal oath of loyal allegiance in the curt question. "For a man and a brother," said Winton.—hettr-tHy-;—a-ttd—they—se* a l - together to waylay the outgoing train at some point beyond the danger limit. It was accomplished without further mishap, and the short winter day was darkening to twilight when the train came in sight and the engineer slowed to their signal. They climbed aboard.

Scarcity of Labor in the HarvsM Fields of the Northwest. Idlers in southern Washington must either enter the harvest field or go to jail. The old blue law of New England that "he who will not work shall not eat" has been revived throughout the wheat belt of this state and northern Oregon at the instance of farmers whose chagrin upon having an offer of $3 a day and board rejected by loafers must be appeased. Accordingly the town councils of Pullman. Colfax, Garfield, Pomeroy, Palouse and a half dozen other towns have rendered it possible to inflict double penalty for vagrancy, a fine and jail sentence of thirty days being imposed, and the prisoner being required to work on a specially provided rock pile in the broiling sun. 1 The definition of the term "vrgrancy" has been enlarged in its application in I the wheat belt until it practically tle- | volves upon the accused to show that i he has some means of support involving some physical effort on his part. for if it is not "visible" to the police ! magistrate, the prisoner will surely be held for vagrancy. 1 The demand for help is almost a tragedy in some localities.

The merchant marine is needed, not only for our commerce, but for the navy, because in time of war when we put the whole fleet into active service, we will" have more than double the number of men that we have in times of peace, and the great question with the navy men. is whe/e we will get those other men.

CAINED 3 4 POUNDS Persistent Anaemia Cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills After Other Remedies Had Failed.

My stomach was filled with gas which caused me awful agony. The backache I suffered was at times almost im bearable aud the least exertion made my heart beat so fast that I could hardly breathe. But the worst of all was the splitting neuralgia headache which never leftiue for seven weeks. About this time I had had several uumb spells. My limbs would be cold and without any feeling aud the most deathly sensations would come over me. "Nothing had helped me until I began taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, in fact, I had grown worse every day. After I had taken the pills a short time I conld see that they were benefiting me and one morning I awoke entirely free from pain. The distress after eating disappeared aud in three weeks I could eat anything I wanted and suffer no incouveuienoe. I also slept soundly.

At llie ti-'i* of H'i-'litivii. when Chin Fin sailed for Singapore to broaden his mind, he was as well posted on the subject iif piracy as llie average American consul. His I'aiher patted him on the back and told liiin to be :i good boy and do all the grafting he could, ami his mother foil on his neck nnd wept and cautioned him that she was badly in need of a pair of diamond earrinus and a chatelaine walcli. The young man arrived at his desTTTnr-" tior. right side up and began to look around for tough people to consort with, lie found about IP.iMXi of thetn. lie iigured that to become a pirate he must first become a tough man. l i e got in with the gang without any trouble, lie became a swindler, thief, robber ami worse. lie passed the first six months in learning his A 15- C's and the next six in jail. When his Singapore record w a s finally looked up it was found that he had had a hand" in about but different "jobs" in throe years and that these "jolts" ranged from gold brick swindles to slitting throats. How many of Ids little curves the police failed to get on to can only be guessed at. When Chin Fin reached his majority he was ready for piracy -on the high seas. He had passed through all other grades of crime, and even ttic police had paid him the compliment of being a crackajack. In spite of his youth he could lead men, and, as for planning, no one tspuld equal him. He had saved his cash instead of "blowing it in, and he had induced certain other tough chaps- to do the same, and so when the time came he was well heeled. That time came when he learned that certain merchants of Singapore were to ship a large sum of money by a sailing vessel to Manila. It was not only in the way of trade, but the merchants were going to make a corner in the hemp market. Chin Fin got his news straight. l i e bribed a confidential clerk to get it. and then murdered the clerk to get his money back and'prevent any ease of conscience. An agent \yas instructed to purchase a ship and lit her out with guns, while ( bin Fin attended to getting a crew. The day came when his <ig:t was all ready and only waited the sailing of the other. It had so happened that on an occasion Chin Fin had desiveif to burglarize the house of the parents of one of his gang. The son iiled objections. lie thought it was carrying a good thing too far. Chin Fin got mad and stabbed the young man and then went on with his burglarizing, The victim proceeded to get well, saw wood and say nothing, but when the time came he gave away the piracy—s-rnrp.—r^tng'T'oT^waTheiir the merchants and authorities put up a job of their own. Just as secretly as Chin Fiu himself had worked, they had a brig fitted out at another port, armed with six guns and manned by eighty men, and when the treasure ship finally sailed for Manila she was followed by the brig. The latter looked as peaceful as an old hen. Chin Fin was in waiting at the Anamba islands. That was a piratical stronghold before his day. and the young man had $jn eye to the eternal fitness of things. The treasure ship made her course up the China sea, followed by the slouchy looking old brig at n respectful distance, and one morning about in o'clock was within live miles of the islands. The pirates were waiting for her. They not only' came Sailing out from the lee of the group, but they raised the black flag to show their hand. Chin Fin wasn't going to play any baby business by sailing under a false Hag. The brig was sighted In the distance, but treated with contempt. The treasure ship naturally tried to get away. She turned on her heel and put back to meet the brig, but the pirates pursued with yells and a great wasro of ammunition. They saw that they could capture two ships where they bad counted on but one. V,y and by things got to work, and Chin Fiu felt his back hair curl. The brig began hammering away witJi six "guns io his two, and at tlje end of eighteen minutes tlsjn.v of his fifty rascals wore dead or Wounded and his craft in a sinking condition, and he had to cry for quarter. It was granted him, and his men were taken abonrd. While the treasure ship pursued her voyage, the brig started hack for Singapore. She had had seven niMl killed or disabled, The pirates were shackled and confined -between decks, and for two days they were as humble as cats. There was no need for Chin Fin, who w a s a upturn] ora for, to tell them how tu>" cas. stood. They were goluff back to Hi" strails for trial, conviction Kodol Dyspepsia Cure Digests what you oat. and execution. Had those pirates been able to get a professional Jury nud a weeping lawyer from tlte United States they could not have been acquitted.' One day, fifteen months after the raising of the black flag'to the music of the band, the Jive pirates stood on the gallows with ropes around their necks. Chin F!u had done no talking since his capture except to claim that It was all a mistake and that he was, a good young man. When he saw that there was no longer any hope, however, he made a speech. Me admitted that he had been a boss had man from head to heel and that th« world ought to rejoice that he was to die. Me spoke for half an hour, then with a dignified wave of his hand he signaled the hangman io let 'er go and was launched Into eternity. M. QUAD.

The time has come when we can specially do hou^r to Nelson's memory without wounding the feelings of other nations. Tbe first tbing to be noted concerning him Is that he Is the only mun who has ever lived who by universal consent Is without a peer. In every walk of life except that which Nelson chose as his own you will find several competitors for the first place, each one of whom will have many supporters. Alexander of Macedon, Hannibal, Caenar, Marlborough, Frederick the Great and Napoleon have been severally put forward for tbe palm of generalship. To those who would acclaim Richelieu as the first of statesmen others would oppose Chatham or William Pitt or Cavour or Bismarck or Marquis Ito. Who was tbe first of sculptors 7 Who the first of painterH? Who the first of poets? In every case there is a great difference of opinion. Ask, however, who was the first of admirals, and the unanimous reply will still be, "Nelson," tried as he was by many years of high command In war. It is not only among his fellow countrymen that his pre-eminence is acknowledged.

George Washington died of a disease that was then called a quinsy, but which is now known as acute laryngitis. His physicians treated him according to their best light and knowledge, but such treatment now would be little short of criminal. An eminent authority says that if medical men had known as much then as they do now the distinguished patient would probably have been cured in a week. As it was, he slowly strangled to death by the closing of his throat. At the present time physicians treat a case of this kind by tracheotomy—that Is, by making nn opening into the windpipe, through which the patient may breathe. They al^o diagnose u case by using the laryngoscope,' which enables them to look into the throat and see exactly what the trouble is. IQ these days of rush and liurtty courtesy is otten forgotten.

MUST PROTECT AMERICANS STATE" DEPARTMENT MAKES DEMAND ON CUBA* It's unsafe to bury the dead past —better cremate It. No Newt of Government Force Received by Official* of the Itland Republic. New York.—The 20,000 and more people who filled Madison Square garden to the utmost Thursday night saw «. new William Jennings Bryan. His smile was gone. Instead, when the two noisiest demonstrations of the night occurred—the «one at his entrance and the of.'ier when he stood up to speak—his lace "became grave, the lines about his mouth tightened, his eyes closed at 1lme* to hide ft suggestion of moisture in them, he bowed his head, and iplainly was uuder a stress of emotion which he found it difficult to conceal. Having become master of himself wjvlle the cheering was going on, he gradually waved the people Into their .seats and then began to speak. Probably recalling the scene in the .garden ten years ago—ten years and IS days, to be exact—when a great 'irost on a sweltering night descended upon the garden and cooled off the j est of New York, Mr. Bryan did not read his spee&i. He had learned most mi what he had written out, and fallowed his text closely. Speaker In Good Voice. His voice was clear, and fresh, and carried well into the farthest corner of the garden. All through his speech and those of the speakers who preceded him there was a subdued roar in i he place, like that of a traffic in a <iiy, and after Mr. Bryan had been speaking for half an hour there was a constant stream of people coming out nominated for the presidency, and who was making an address of accept* ance. He outlfned a policy as if he was outlining the policy of a nation over which he had been chosen to rule, In brief, Mr. Bryan urged arbitration between nations in order to avert the horrors of war. He opposed the use of the navy as a collector of private debts. He opposed the continuance of American rule in the Philippines. He urged government ownership of railroads—the trunk lines by the nation and the local lines by the states. He demanded equal rights for capital and labor, anti-trust laws, and an income tax. He said socialism was a mistaken theory, but censured the arrogance of wealth. • His peroration was a scathing denunciation of plutocracy. He urged an amendment to the constitution requiring congress to meet soon after election instead of waiting j election of United'States senators by direct vote of the people. la Loudly Cheered. • Mr. Bryan was cheered frequently and vociferously. When delayed by the applause he waited, with only the painted shadow of a grim smile on his tightly compressed lips. "How can I thank you for this welcome home? My heart would be flint, indeed, if it were not touched by Washington. — According to a dispatch received at the state department Thursday from one of the American" owners of the Constancia estate, near Cienfuegos, Cuban insurgents raided this property four days ago, taking a number of horses. The state department did not make public the name of the American who sent the dispatch. This is the first protest received from Americans against molestation of their interests. Mr. Sleeper, the American charge at Havana, was cabled to demand of the Cuban government adequate protection for the Constancia estate, and all American property similarly situated, Havana.—No news of the operations of Col.

New bands are reported to have been organized in various places in Pinar del Rio and elsewhere, which gives the situation a gravity which there is no attempt to disguise. Up to noon Thursday no reports of engagements of importance had been received, although desultory skirmishes with minor bands or ' in3urgcnta, especially westward, had taken place. No suggestions have been received at the palace from anybody of a settlement of the insurrection on political lints. It Is stated that the government would not encourage such a course under the present circumstances. Vice President Mendez Capote visited President Palma Thursday and reiterated his denial that,he had consulted with Senator 3ayas, president oi' the liberal party, on the question whether peace could" not be restored by Palma's withdrawal from the presidency, permitting Mendez Capote to succeed him and giving certain posts to the liberals. • The Americans here criticize the ! citizens of the United States who ' had enlisted in the government's machine gun. corps, believing that they should have remained non-combatants.

North Dakota seems to have found the key to the question, "How .shall we protect the people from frauds in manufactured products?'* A new law has recently gone Into effeet designed to make it impossible to deceive* people Into haying inferior ,<u||(]^fgjterated paint under <^vImpression that they are getting .Jre^nafttt, viz.: pure white lead'anVJlrrrawS oh. The North Dakota IsJffmakens did not attempt to absolutely prohibit the inferior pigments,'tor Mixtures of pigments. They adopted the slogan, *&et the label toik/Vand. then left to tjfce people to buy whichever thfjr Wished, l Under this plan, if any one wishes to buy a mixture, of rock-dust, ground quartz and other . cfcesp elements which are found In many pfgfcnts and so-called "white ' leads," no-fcno *an object; for they do it with their eyes open. But if they prefer genuine white lead and linseed oil, they can be sure of getting it, for none but the genuine article can bear a label which says "pure white lead." In all other States mixtures are often sold as pure white lead which contain little — sometimes no — real white lead. It would seem that were this same principle applied to food, beverages and all other prepared articles, where deception is practiced upon the buyer, the question would be solved. It would leave us free to buy what we pleased, but would protect us from unwittingly baying what we did not want. Vanishing Rural Industries. The gradual cessation, one after another, of the countryside industries Is one of the principal reasons why the peasant owner has vanished from the land . Thatching and woodcraft have been killed by rural councils, with their craze for slated roofs, and by the substitution of other materials for timber. The cottager can no longer even burn wood, but must buy coal, since his fireplaces are not fashioned for the consumption of fagots.—London Estates Gazette. Mexico City Gets Away With 800,000 Litres Every Day. The consumption of pulque in Mexico city is rapidly increasing, and the hauling of the drink is becoming one of the principal sources of revenue on a number of lines entering the City. OnA nearly every railroad entering the city a special pulque train is run into the city daily and many of the regular freight trains carry large numbers of cars containing the popular drink. During the month of June three railroads, the Hildago. the Mexican and the Interoceanic, carried into the city 59,861 barrels and 3SI skins full of the pulque gathered within a radius of sixty mile's of the city. The National, the Central and the smaller lines brought in an amount probably half as great. Allowing that the population of Mexico city is 400,000 men, women | der is Aluni and another CFeam- of and children, the quantity of pulque Tartar.

During the month or June 14,- 985,290 liters of pvilque were brought into the city, as in one barrel ther,e are 250 liters and in one skin 60 liters. During each day of thfi^raonth an average of 748,263 liters was brought to the city. The amount thus reckoned is exclusive of the pulque brought to the city in wagons and on muleback from the nearby haciendas. ~ > . ANChemlcally Pure. The mistaken idea of a few years ago, about Alum in Baking Powders being injurious, no longer jprevails, or scarcely exists, It is -a well established facte by icheraica| analysis that Cream of Tartar belnf less volatile than Alum, when, exposed to heat, Is nop "entirely vajp^lzed as is ;the case with'Aluti, but fca^es a (^sidfie in'the bread, which is injurious.

Results of Excessive Coffee Drinkii It is remarkable what suffering some persons put up with just to satisfy an appetite for something. A Mich, woman says: "I had been using coffee since I was old enough to have a cup of my own at the table, and from it I have suffered agony hundreds of times ln the years past. "My trouble first began in the form of bilious colic, coming on every few weeks and almost ending my life. At every attack for 8 years I suffered in this way. I used to pray for death to relieve me from my suffering. I had also attacks of sick headache, and began to suffer from catarrh of the stom-j ach, and of course awful dyspepsia. "For about a year I lived on crackers and water. Believing that coffee was the cause of all this suffering, I finally quit it and began to use Postum Food Coffee. It agreed with my Btomach, my troubles have left me and I am fast gaining my health under its use. "No wonder I condemn coffee and tea. No one could be in a much more critical condition than I was from the use of coffee. Some doctors pronounced it cancer, others ulceration, since I stopped coffee and began Pos turn I am getting well so fast I can heartily recommend it for all who suffer as I did."

How He Got Hit Start in the Early Days of California. In 1853, or more than a half century ago, a little party of gold seekers with a meager outfit of horses and. wagons, started for California from the village of Racine, Wis., says Outing. In command of thia adventurous expedition was a young man who took with him his wife and infant daughter. His name was E. J. Baldwin and he made a wine choice in shaking from his restless feet the dust of a tamer civilization. He needed a larger theater of action for his pent-up and surging activities. While trailing through the mountains of Utah the pioneers were attacked by Indians, who were beaten off during a six-hour fight in which young Baldwin killed their chief. After six months of hardship, the party reached Hangtown (later called Placerville) in California. Here Baldwin tarried and began placer mining. He appears to have been no more than an ordinary redshirted argonaut, meeting the ups and dowus of mining luck, until the discovery of the Comstock lode at Virginia City. Thither he drifted and discovered that his natural bent was gambling with the mtnes that other men had opened. Amid a whirlwind of speculation, he fought his way with such success that he' loomed from the smoke in a few months as "Lucky" Baldwin, the man who had cleaned up $7,500,000 in the gigantic deals in the stock of the Ophir mines. San Francisco was the Mecca of those lucky sons of fortune who were rearing a great city by the Golden Gate. As a stock and mining specula, tor, "Lucky" Baldwin shone resplendent, but he was also a loyal son of San Francisco. He built hotels and theaters and business blocks, even while he was amazing that far from conservative community by madly freakish extravagances. In the very lucid interval he bought all the Spanish grants he could find near Los Angeles and there spent a million in making this ranch of his not only a splendidly productive prop erry, but also one of the most beauti ful estates ever laid out in this 01 any other country. It was his hobby: his pet, and he planted miles of avenues with noble, shade trees and made wonderful tropical gardens, so that today his home is surrounded by a paradise of vernal beauty.

I got medicine of a doctor, but it did not cure me, and when I saw in a paper your ad, I sent to you for the Cutlcura book and I studied my case in it. I then went to the drug store and bought one cake of Cutlcura Soap, one box of Cuttcura Ointment and one vial of Cutlcura Pills. From the first application I received relief.

Deadly New Rifle. Bullets from the new 30-caliber i rifles of the United States army whirl ' with great rapidity. The rifling gives one revolution, of the bullet about its axiB in ten inches. At the muzzle the velocity of the bullet is 2,300 feet a second, which means 2,760 turns a second, assuming that the bullet does not strip in the rifling. The circumference of the bullet is .942 of an inch, which gives a peripheral velocity of 2,600 inches each second, or 13,000 feet a minute. Troubles of an Author. Robert Louis Stevenson's mother 'wrote in one of her letters from Samoa: "The people here are now discovering that Louis writes, as 'The 'Bottle-Imp' is coming out in the native paper, having been translated by Mr. C . It is much appreciated, but leads to some curious results. For instance, the house in it somewhat resembles ours, and a good many of the natives suspect that Mr. Stevenson has the 'bottle' himself." His Choice for Dessert. A story of a certain newspaper man and one of his pugilistic friends is going the rounds and making qui** a hit with all who hear it. The two u ^ been together all day and along about nine o'clock that evening the man who writes the news said: "Come and have lunch with me, Tommy." They ate and ate until the newspaper man could hold no more. He toyed with his table tools for a moment, and then he said to his friend: "Well, what are you going to have for dessert?" "Wat's dat?" asked the other. "Why, something to end the dinner with," explained the newspaper man. Then the pugilist did something unexpected. He picked up the bill of fare, scanned it as he picked his teeth, and finally exclaimed: "Gimme a beef stew!"—Columbus Dispaich. American School Children.

Some years ago an Irishman, not long from the old country, secured a job cutting Ice. The foreman gave Pat an ice saw (ice in those days was cut by hand) and told him to go on the pond and go to work cutting ice. Now, Pat had seen a crosscut saw that is used in cutting logs, that requires a man on either end, and, as the saw that the foreman gave him resembled the crosscut he had seen, he supposed it required two men to work it; so, seeing another man standing near, when he was to commence cutting, he said: "Say, friend, I'll toss up a cent to see who goes below."

The protests against the automobile omnibuses of London have received a powerful, reenforcement by a declaration of Sir Jame.3 Dewar on the chemical basis. He is undoubtedly among the high chemical authorities of the world, and his condemnation of the motor buses and freight vans seems conclusive unless invention provides Innocuous motive power. Sir James Dewar states that the combustion of petrol or gasoline in these motors throws off vast quantities of noxious gases. Some of these are absolutely poisonous and all injurious. He holds that the air of London is bad enough already without the addition of carbonic acid gas, the sulphurous gases, and, worst of all, the asphyxiating carbonic oxide. Moreover, while he admits that science can improve motors, he declares that it is impossible for it to burn petrol and render tUe resulting gases innocuous.

As the plants which are combined with the figs in the manufacture of Syrup of Figs are known to physicians to act most beneficially upon the system, the remedy has met with their general approval as a family laxative, a fact well worth considering in making purchases. It is because of the fact that S Y R U P O F F I G S is a remedy of known quality and excellence, and approved by physicians that has led to its use by so many millions of well informed people, who would.not use any remedy of uncertain quality or inferior reputation. Every family should have a bottle of the genuine on hand at all times, to use when.a laxative remedy is required. Please to remember that the genuine Syrup of Figs is for sale in bottles of one size only, by all reputable druggists, and that full name of the company—California Fig Syrup Co., is plainly printed on the front of every package.

HIS AIRSHIP'S FLIGHT. WENT UP AT A WISCONSIN FAIR AND WAS CARRIED ACROSS THE LAKE—HIS GRAPHIC DESCRIPTION. A Night of Anxiety. The first ship to navigate Lake Michigan aerially and cross from the Wisconsin to the Michigan side, hung a tattered, torn and twisted wreck in a large tree in a dense swamp six miles southeast of Wolverine. Its eteering geaf de molished',it Tiacl sa fled at the mercy of the winds. The ship is the Columbia and its intrepid navigator is Capt. Wm. Mattray. The captain "dropped anchor" in J his "port" in the dead of night and had almost as terrible an experience getting out of the swamp as be had in crossing/the lake. The good ship Columbia was performing, or rather promising to perform for the visitors at the county fair at Oconto, Wis. When it failed to go up the great crowd of ruralites that had gathered to witness the strange sight declared it a fake. Thursday evening, however, they changed their minds. The balloon apparatus •was inflated and its "wings" began to Jap, and the ajrship arose an$ flew like a bird to the unspeakable wonderment of the fair visitors. Out over the town it went, seemingly at a hight of 2,000 feet, and then with a sudden twist it darted with the speed of a homing pigeon toward Green Bay. Capt. Mattray, in describing his experience said: "The big ship shivered and cracked and moaned in its flight, and to every counter wind current that hit it it gave 'vocal' response. Several times I think I "must have ~rfsen"above 5,000 _feet altitude and at other times I was almost skimming the water like u eeagull. -"I got wet early in the voyage from dipping into Green Bay and when the night air struck me I was chilled to the bone. My teeth chattered and J became numb all over. 1 fell asleep once from exhaustiorji and when I awoke with a start I almost tumbled out of my seat. Then I lashed »jrself •to the ship and slept, I guess, about four hours. "I awoke when the ship struck in the tree, about 1 o'clock in the morning. I managed to clamber to the ground and, finding a half dry spot, 1 slept till daylight and then finally worked my way out of the swamp." SCHOOL MONEY. A Million Per Year Lost end Reform Is Needed. Commenting upon the effort being put forth by the department of public instruction to secure a better compliance with the school laws of the state, Deputy Superintendent W. H. French "says that out of the $10,000,000 expended for the support of the p\ibllc school system of the state $1,000,000 is frittered away annually. Asked In what manner the losses to the districts are sustained, Mr. French replied: "In many ways. I will specify a few. We have discovered that many district treasurers give no bonds, and sometimes there are defalcations. "Recently a district treasurer up north who had given no bond disappeared with $750 in school funds. There are probably other instances not known to this department. "Again, district treasurers treat public moneys as their own. They loan it or deposit it in banks and pocket the interest. This money belongs to the schools. __ '"""Sometimes sch"6ot~aTstrict officers allow themselves salaries. In most cases this is unlawful. The school laws do not provide for the payment of salaries. If any are paid they must be voted at the annual school meeting, and may not be paid by order of the board out of funds on hand at the end of the year, as 1¾ frequently done." f he purpose of tne department in re quiring school officers to give sworn answers to certain questions asked as a condition preliminary to the allotment of the primary school money is to detect violations of the school laws and compel their observance, so that the primary school moneys will be faithfully devoted to the purpose for which they were appropriated. Capt. Mattray will return to Chlca-. go with his battered ship as soon as money reaches him. After Twenty-five Years. Fred \V. Smith, after an absence of £5 years, during which time his parents and friends had thought him dead, returned to Otisville Wednesday and caused a sensation by his appearance. Smith is now 47 years old and •his father, "Cap" Smith, and mother are both living. After he was graduated from the Otisville school the young man taught several telfms and then mysteriously disappeared. Ho says he has been all over the west, but the greater part of the time was in St. Louis, Mo. He as- 'signs no reason for so long absenting himself and refuses to state why he had kept his whereabouts a secret. The story of "Cap" Smith's lost son Is a familiar one in and about Otisville and the return of the wanderer is a live topic of conversation in the village. A Soo Mystery. The skeleton of an unknown man was found far back in the woods from Sault Ste. Marie under the partly burned and abandoned hut of James Janes, a homesteader who committed suicide a year ago. Settlers believe the man was murdered anu buried there, and are inclined to connect ines' suicide with the suspected The remains of a watch found beside the skeleton indicated the body" was placed there many years ago. Janes was an odd character, who lived alone in the woods. He is supposed to have seen better days, as he was of more than average intelligence and seemed to be well read. It was eaid at the time of his death that he killed himself because he could not leave drink alone. Another P. M. Wreck. One man was fatally injured and four persons were seriously hurt in a headon collision at Wallin, between the Pere Marquette "flyer," south bound, and passenger train No. 10, north bound, as the latter was backing into a switch Wednesday night. The "flyer" was running at high speed and, it is charged, was ahead of time, which charge, if* true, explains the cause of the wreck. Only one passenger was injured, the flyer being made up of heavily constructed Pullman coaches. The engine*crews saved themselves by jumping. Engineer McRoberts struck a pole and was badly hurt. He was taken to his home in Grand Rapids. The locomotives were demolished. The bursting of a pulley on the main power machine of the Vlcksburg paper mill practically wrecked the plant. The Price Fixed. A minimum price of $2.75 to $3 a pound for peppermint oil was decided upon by the mint growers of Michigan and Indiana, who formed an association at Kalamazoo Wednesday. The prices now prevailing for peppermint oil are $l.S5 to $2 a puuud. Thomas J. T. Bolt was elected president; L. E. Dufer, vice-president, and M. E. Os« born, secretary and treasurer. MICHIGAN IN BRIEF. Startled Saginaw. Fire, which completely destroyed the three-story brick *uildlng on Germania avenue, near Washington, containing the Aubrey French Dye and Cleaning works, and the terminal headquarters of the Bay City-Saginaw Jnterurban, gave the business portion of Saginaw a bad scare Thursday morning. Spontaneous explosion of gasoline from rubbing garments together in a tub in the dye works was the cause of the fife. All the employes, including the girl at the tub, escaped. Because President Underwood, of the Erie railroad system, recently made a tour of inspection of the Pere •Marquette, the rumor is current that there is a deal on for the .absorption ci the MicfriganJto*d by Oe Erie. The profits of the state fair will reach $75,000 this year it is estimated. Potatoes and corn have been somewhat injured in Oakland county by the drought. Forty voting machines have been"oTr dered by Saginaw council for use at the coming election. R. H. Elliott, a farmer living near •Riggsville, owns an eight-wee'ks-o'ld pig which runs about on six legs. The animal is thriving. William Marks, an artist, once connected with Leslie's Weekly and coworker with the late Thomas Xast, was found dead in bed at his home in Calumet. Heart failure caused his death. The board of health has warned citizens to refrain from using ice in their summer drinks. Several cases of contagion have been traced to the unhealthy condition of the Flint water supply. Because the sparrow bounty law hasn't been effective in ridding Kalamazoo county of sparrows and the appropriation has been exhausted, the board of supervisors will likely rescind the law. Sylvester Daniels, who was sentenced to life imprisonment in the Jackson prison about 20 years ago for the murder of Jerry White in Genesee county, has taken the preliminary steps looking toward his pardon. For the third time in eight years W. B. Cady, of Pittsfleld, has had his barns burned. The third barn was completed in June at a cost of $2,200. The crops were just in and were valued at $1,000. Insurance, $1,900. Beet growers, patrons of the West Wchigan Sugar Co., and other farmers to the number of 5,000 gathered at the first annual picnic in Charlevoix last week. Addresses were made by Congressman Darragh, President McLean and others. Mrs. W. Carey Hull ran down a street sweeper in Traverse City with her touring car Friday afternoon, the wheels passing the whcl3 length of his body. She took him to her home, where it was found that he wasn't seriously injured. By January 1 next, it Is. expected the people of gault Ste. Marie will have the privilege of using gas for illuminating Hnd cooking. A contract has Just been tot for the construction of a plant capable of producing 150,000 I feet of gas dally. MANY DIVORCES FOUND ILLEGAL. Speaking of- divorces, amazing Irregularities in many of the divorces granted In this city,within the past 20 years have been discovered' So far there is a flaw in one divorce out of every five examined. These defects were found by William H. K. Jarvis, of the census bureau, and his eprps of 15 "divorce girls," sent from Washington |for statistics of divorces. If made known they, would make bigamists of many couples married in good faith and illegltimatise many children. -1' How much and how many of these • discoveries will be made public depends largely on action to be taken by Mr. Jarvis. If he applies to the court for necessary data in thousands of cases an order may be granted to "unseal the papers." From 18S6 to 1896 divorces were granted in the superior court and in the court of common pleas here and in Brooklyn. The average was about 490 a year for the ten years. Since they were replaced by the supreme court in 1896 the divorce records of these two courts in New York county haye been filed away in the county courthouse. Records of divorces since 1896 ore kept by the county clerk. The 15 examiners from the census bureau have reached the year 1887 in their examination and compilation. Already they have discovered that nearly 20 per cent, of the papers filed away are incomplete. They do not contain any final award or decree signed by a judge. Without this they are invalid. It used to be the custom tor many judges to announce their decisions from the bench, "Decree granted to the plaintiff" or "defendant." as the case might be. Then it was the duty of the attorney to prepare a formal decree, have this signed by the judge, and file it for record. Many lawyers neglected to do this. Their unsuspecting clients since then have married again and raised other families. As a matter of law, all such marriages are bigamous, and all such children of the second marriage—even though it was contracted in good f a i t h - have no property rights. The complications of this sort that will arise if the incomplete records are ever made public are matters of distressful conjecture. "TOZErV' PET OF THE BATTERY, MISSING. "Tozer"—nobody knows where he got his name—has disappeared from Battery park. Tozer is a little half-breed fox terrier, and for years he has lived along the docks on South street by night, and in front of the barge office by day. Every policeman, every tramp, every longshoreman, every newsboy, and for that matter everybody who had business that took him to South ferry and South street more than once a week knew Tozer, for Tozer was the smartest, sleekest little tramp of a dog that ever begged a meal from a free lunch counter. Tozer -came to the Battery five years ago. "Dick" Galley, .one of the veterans of the police force; fouqd hira. Tozer was so hungry that he could!-hardly stand up, and Ganley hurried to a nearby delicatessen shop and got a banquet for the dog. Tozer ate until he almost exploded; then Ganley took him inside the barge office and showed him a horse blanket that wasn't in use. Five minutes lkter Tozer was sleeping the sleep of the just. When he awoke somebody called him "Tozer," and ever after that was his name. Ganley says the dog practically named himself. One of Tozer's Battery park friends thinks Tozer went to the West Indies on a Nova Scotlan schooner and that he will'eventually show up again. Nobody believes he has been killed, except possibly by accident. Where Nutriment It Lott. If meat is put into cold water first, for boiling, there will be a constant oozing of albumen from it.

A FOOL FOR LOVE By FRANCIS LYNDE AUTHOR OF "THB GRAFTERS,'* ETC. i (Copyright, 1806,by J. f ^ipp^oyt* 0*> 1 CHAPTER VI.—Continued. "Not such a bad day, considering •the newness of us and the bridge at the head of the guich," he said, half i o himself. And then more pointedly to the foreman: "Bridgebuilders to the front at the first crack of dawn, Mike. Why wasn't this break filled i i the grading?" ^ "Sure, sorr, 'tis a dhrain it is," said the Irishman; "from the placer up fceyant," he added, pointing to a washed-out excoriation on the steep upper slope of the mountain. 'Major Bvarts did be tellin' us we'd have the lawyers afther us hot-fut again if we didn't be lavln' ut open the full width." "Mmph," said Adams, looking the ground over with a critical eye. "n s A bad bit It wouldn't take much to bring that whole slide down on us if it wasn't frozen solid. Who owns the placer?" "Two fellies over in Carbonate. The company did be thryin' to buy the claim, but the sharps wouldn't sell— bein' put up to hold ut by thlm C. & O. R. divils. It's more throuble we'll be havin' here, I'm thinking." While they lingered a shrill whistle echoing among the cliffs of the upper gorge like an eldritch laugh announced the coming of a train from the direction of Carbonate. Adams looked at his watch. "I'd like to know what that is," he mused. "It's two hours too soon for the accommodation. By Jove!" The exclamation directed itself at a one-car train which came thundering down the canyon to pull in on the siding beyond the Rosemary. The car was a passenger coach, well lighted, and from his post on the embankment Adams could see armed men filling the windows. Michael Branagan saw them, too, and the fighting Celt in him rose to the occasion. " 'Tis Donnybrook Fair we've conie to this time, Misther Adams. Shall I call up the b'ys wid their guns?" "Not yet. Let's wait and see what happens." What happened was a peaceful sortie. Two men, each with a kit of some kind borne in a sack, dropped from the car, crossed the creek and struggled up the hill through the un* -- bridged gap. Adams waited until they were fairly on the right of way, then he called down to them. "Halt, there! you two. This is corporation property." "Not much it aln t! retorted one of the trespassers, gruffly. "It's the drain-way from our placer up yonder." 'What are you going to do up there at this time of night?" "None o' your blame business!" was the explosive eouuter-shot.- "Perhaps it isn't," said Adams, mildly. "Just the same, I'm thirsting to know. Call it vulgar curiosity if you like." "AH right, you can know, and be cussed to you. We're gain' to ..work our claim. Got anything to say against it?" "Oh, no," rejoined Adams; and when the twain had disappeared in the upper darkness he went down the grade with Branagan and took his place on the man-loaded fiats for the run to the construction camp, thinking more of the lately arrived car with its complement of armed men than of the two miners who had calmly announced their intention of working a placer claim oh a high mountain, without water, and in, the dead of winter! By which it will be seen that Mr. Morton P. Adams, C. E. Inst Tech. Boston, had something yet to learn in the matter of practical field work. By the time Ah Poo had served him his solitary supper in the dinkey he had quite lorgotten the incident of the mysterious placer miners. Worse than that, it had never occurred to him to;connect their movements with the Rajah's plan of campaign. On the other hand, he was thinking altogether of the carload o. armed men, and trying to devise some means of finding out how tney were to be employed in furthering the Rajah's designs. The means suggested themselves niter supper, and he went alone over **'Argentine to spend a half-hour in DM %ar of the dance hall listening to t k t r t i s i p of the place. When he had lejmUf. what he wanted to know, he forthfartd to meet Winton at the Incoming^ train. "We are in for it now," he said, when they had crossed the creek to the dinkey and the Chinaman was • bringing Wlnton's belated supper. "The ipajah has Imported a carload of armajd mercenaries, and he is going to clea% us all out to-morrow; arrest everybjftr, from the gang foreman up." Wlntg£| eyebrows lifted. "So? that k>r* .r-'A-xn •»•. — is a pretty large contract. Has he men enough to do it?" "Not so many men. But they are sworn-in deputies with the sheriff of Ute county In command—a posse, in fact. So he has the law on his side." "Which is more than he had when he set a thug on me this afternoon at Carbonate," said Winton, sourly; and he told Adams about the misunderstanding in the lobby of the Buckingham. The technologian whistled under his breath. "By Jove! that's pretty rough. Do you suppose the Rajah dictated any such Lucretia Borgia thing as that?" Winton took time to think about it and admitted a doubt, as, he had not before. Believing Mr. Somerville Darrah fit for treasons, stratagems, and spoils in his official capacity of vice president of a fighting corporation, he I wouldn't have shown you up that way." Adams chuckled reminiscently. "Had to do it to make my day-before-yesterday lie hold water. And she was immensely taken with the scrawls, especially with one of them." Winton flushed under the bronze. "I suppose I don't need to ask which one." Adams' grin was a measure of his complaeence. He was coming off easier than he had anticipated. "Well, hardly." "She took it away with her?" "Took it, or tore it u^ I forget which.' Wlnton's look was that of a man distressed. '*Tell me, Morty, was she very angry?" The technologian took the last hint of laughter out of his eyes before he said solemnly: "You'll never know how thankful I was that you were 20 miles away." Wlnton's cup was full, and he turned the talk abruptly to the industrial doings and accomplishments of the day. Adams made a verbal report which led him by successive steps up to the twilight hour when he had stood with Branagan on the brink of the placer drain, but, strangely enough, there was no stirring of memory to recall the incident of the upward climbing miners. When Winton rose' he said something about mounting a night guard on the engine, which was kept under steam at all hours; and shortly afterward^ he left the dinkey ostensibly "IT'S JUST ABOUT AS I EXPECTED." was none the less disposed to find excuses for Miss Virginia Carteret's uncle. "I did think so at first, but I guess it was only the misguided zeal of some understrapper. Of course, word has gone out all along the C. & G. R. line that we are to be delayed by every possible expedient." But now Adams had also taken time to think, and he shook his head. "For common humanity's sake I wish I could agree with you, Jack. But I can't. Mr. Darrah dictated that move in his own proper person." "How do you know that?" Adams' answer took the form of a leading question, "You had a message from me this afternoon?" "I did." "What did you think of it?" "I thought you might have left out the first part of it; also that you might have made the latter half a good bit more, explicit if you had put your mind to if." A slow smile spread itself over the technologian's Impassive face, and he lighted another cigarette. "Every man has nis limitations," he said. "I did the best I could under the existing circumstances. But you will understand: the Rajah knew very well what he was about—otherwise there would have been no telegram." Winton sent the Chinaman out for another cup of tea before he said: "Did Miss Carteret come here alone?' "Oh, no; Calvert came with her." "What brought them here?" Adams spread his hands. "What makes any woman do precisely the most unexpected thing? You'll have to go back of me—say to Confucius or beyond—to find that out." Winton was silent for a moment, balancing his spoon on the tip of his finger. Finally he said: "I hope you did what you could to make it pleasant ffc her—not that there was much to be dom in such a God-forsaken chaos as a construction camp;" "I did. And I didn't hear her complain of the chaos. She. seemed as interested as a school girl—particularly in your sketches." . ,,•>.. . "That was low-down in you, Morty. to do it, declining Adams' offer of company. But once out-of-doors he climbed straight to the operator's tent qn_the snow-covered slope. Carter had turned in, but he sat up in his bunk at the noise of the intrusion, blinking sleepily at the flare of Wlnton's match. "That you, Mr. Winton? Want to send something?" he asked. "No; go to sleep. I'll write a wire and leave It for you to send in the morning." He sat down at the packing-case instrument table and wrote out a brief report of the day's progress in track laying for the general manager's-record. But when Carter's regular breathing told him he was alone he pushed the pad aside, took down the sending book and searched until he had found the original cor.y of the message which had reached him at the moment of cataclysms in the lobby of the Buckingham. "Urn,' he said, and his heart grew warm within him. "It's just about as I expected; Morty didn't have anything whatever to do with it—except totslgn and send it as she commanded him to." And the penciled sheet was folded carefully and filed in permanence in the inner breast pocket of his brown duck shooting coat. The moon was rising - behind tie eastern mountain when he extinguished the candle and went out. xtelow lay the chaotic construction camp buried in silence and in darkness save for the lighted windows of the dinkey. He was not quite ready to go back to Adams, and after making a round of the camp and bidding the engine watchman keep a sharp lookout against a possible night surprise, he set out to walk over the newly laid track of the day. Another half-hour had elapsed, and a waning moon was clearing the topmost crags of Pacific Peak when he came out on. the high embankment opposite the Rosemary, having traversed the entire length of the lateral loop and inspected the trestle at the gulch head by the light of a blazing firbranch. The station with its two one-car trains, and the shacks of the little mining camp beyond, lay shimmering ghost-like in the new-born light of the moon. The engine of the sheriff's car was humming softly with a note like the distant swarming of bees, and from the dance hall In Argentine the snort of trombone and the tinkling clang of a cracked piano floated out upon the frosty night air. - Winton turned to go back. The windows of the Rosemary were all dark, and there was nothing to stay for. So he thought, at all events; but It he had not been musing abstractedly upon things widely separated from his present surroundings, he might have remarked two tiny stars of lantern light high on the placer ground above the embankment; or, failing the sight, he might have heard the dull, measured slumph of a churn-drill burrowing deep in the frozen earth of the slope. As it was, a pair of brown eyes blinded him, and the tones of a voice sweeter than the songs of Oberon's sea maid filled his ears. Whereiore he neither saw nor heard; and taking the short cut across the mouth of the lateral gulch back to camp, he boarded the dinkey and went to bed without disturbing Adams. The morning of the day to come broke clear and still, with the stars paling one by one at the pointing finger of the dawn, and the frost-rime lying thick and white like a snowfall of erect and glittering needles on iron and steel and wood. Obedient to orders, the bridge builders were getting out their hand car at the construction camp, the wheels shrilling merrily on the frosted rails, and the men stamping and swinging their arms to start the sluggish nightblood. Suddenly, like the opening gun of a battle, the dull rumble of a, mighty explosion trembled upon the still air, followed instantly by a sound of a passing avalanche. Winton was out and running up the tr^ck before the camp was fairly aroused. What he saw when he gained the hither side of the lateral gulch was a sight to make a strong man weep. A huge landslide, starting from the frozen placer ground high up on the western promontory, had swept every vestige of track and eraban indent—into—the deep •bed of thai As a tuppjanter. The Maid—Do yon think the auto* mobile will ever supplant the hone. The Man—Kor but it may supplant the mule Jin. the course, of time.

Katherine.•' Who is that sandpapering the wall this hour of the night?" A long stillness and then: "No one down here, father, dear. I guess it must be next door." The candle vanished and then from the gloom of the parlorr "George, you big goose, I told you never to call on me unless you had been shaved." WHEN THE BED GOES 'ROUND But Smith Was Too Wise to Wait on the Procession. "That was an amusing story about the congressman who caught his bed the fourth time It came around. It reminded me," continued the narrator "of the first time I heard the bed phrase. It happened in Harrisburg, where I was then stationed, and it happened to a legislator whom I shall call Smith. "At the first session Smith became famous for his ability to comfortably carry more liquor than any other man In the legislature. At the opening of the second session some Philadelphians got together and put up a job on Smith. They arranged relays, so that when one party had enough another should take hold, and thus keep going until they had Smith down and out Well, they began with Smith one evening, and after two relays had succumbed their successors noted with much satisfaction that Smith was mixing his beverages—they didn't know that was his custom, and he fooled them all. The bout continued all night and all of the next day, and when the second evening came Smith was the only man able to get away unaided. "Several days later I asked Smith how-he got along after he reached his hotel. "When I got into my room," he replied, *.I saw a procession of beds coming in my direction. I grabbed the first one, fell into it, and woke up the next afternoon.' "—Pittaburg Chronicle-Telegraph.

"Rather unlucky for our friends the enemy," said a colorless voice behind her;.and she had an uncomfortable feeling that Jastrow had been lying in wait for her, seconded instantly by the conviction that he had done the same thing the previous morning. (TO BE CONTINUED.) WILLIAM T H E CONQUERER. Falaise, the birthplace of William the Conqueror, is an interesting old town, but looks as if it had been, asleep ever since that great event, writes Mme. Waddington id* Scribner's. The old castle Is very fine, stands high, close to the edge of the cliff, so that the rock seems to form part of the great walls. There is one fine round tower, and always the grass walk around the ramparts. ^The views are beautiful. Looking down from one of the narrow, pointed windows still fairly preserved, we had the classic Norman landscape at our feet—beautiful green fields, enormous trees making spots of black shade in the bright grass, the river, in the sparkling; sunshine, winding through the meadows, a group of washerwomen, busy .and chattering, beating clothe* on the flat: stones, where the river ***row* a Ht We walked through the Grande palace— picturesque enough. On one side the church of La Trinite, and in the middle of the place the bronze equestrian statue of William the Conqueror. It is very spirited.

They say the figure was copied from Queen Mathilde's famous tapestries at Bay- "l^eux, but it looked more modern to me. r\ remember all the men and beasts and ships of these tapestries looked most extraordinary as to shape.

The following passage Is from the Adventurer, No. 35, March 0, 1753: "On Sunday last a terrible Are broke out at Lady Brag's, occasioned by the followlng%accideiit: Mrs. Overall, tbe housekeeper, having lost three rubbers at whist running without holding a swabber (notwithstanding she had changed chairs, furzed the cards and ordered Jemmy, the footboy, to sit cross legged for good luck), grew out of all patience and, taking up the devil's books, as she called them, flung them Into the fire, and the flames spread to the steward's room." Swabbers are the ace of hearts, the knave of clubs and the ace and the deuce of trumps at whist. To furz or fuzz is to shuffle the cards very carefully or to change the pack.—London Notes and Queries. W h y R a i n C l o u d r A r e B l a c k . The color of a cloud depends on the manner iu which the sunlight falls upon It and the position of the observer. It will be noticed that high clouds aro always white or light in color, and this Is because tbe light by which they are seen is reflected from the under surface by the numberless drops of moisture which go to form the cloud. Heavy rain clouds, on the other hand, are found much nearer the earth, and so the light falls on them more directly from above, giving d%lver lining to the cloud, though the undersurface np*' pears black owing to the complete reflection and absorption of the light by the upper layers. Seen from above by an observer in n balloon, the blackest rain clouds appear of the most dazzlingly brilliant white.

The Etruscans of old believed that there were three kinds of lightningone incapable Of doing auy injury, an-' other more mischievous in its character and consequently only to be issued with the consent of a quorum of twelve gods, and a third carrying, mischief in its train and for which a regular decree was required from the highest divinities iu the Etruscan skies. Curiously enough, modern scientific men agree with the view that there are three kinds of lightning, but their varieties differ from tbe Etruscans. The first is known as forked lightning and runs in zigzag lines, the second as sheet lightning, because it is seen in a body, and the third as globe lightning, as it sometimes runs in the shape of a ball.

This characteristic propensity to ascendat once may be observed by any person who "treads up" a lark in a field and satlHfactorily illustrated by releasing, at the same moment, a newly captured lark ami a sparrow from a cage or hat within the precincts of a room. While the sparrow will fly off horizontally, dash himself against the window and j lie almost stunned from the shock, the 1 lark will almost always mount' up- \ ward to the ceiling and flutter there I- for a time in vain efforts to reach j the sky before he attempts any other J mode of exit; but this habit is fatal to i him in the netting season.

The street beggar ^ i t h pockets lined with money is a fairly familiar figure of city life, but one of the free dispensaries reports an instance of an attempt to get free medicine on the plea of poverty that deserves a place in the catalogue of good stories of graft. A middle aged woman appeared the other day and got a prescription, after which she took ^her place in the line of persons waiting to have their medicine made up by'the1 apothecary. This particular woman, it should be said, had given satisfactory answers to air the questions put to her designed to show whether she was a proper subject for charity. Suddenly there was a cry: "I'm robbed! I'm robbed:" The victim ' was this woman, who so fur forgot her previous professions as to assert that her pocket had been picked and that the thief ^had got away with $90. Then she lost the opportunity to get free medicine, thus adding, in her view, insult to injury .—New York Post. In these days of russh and hurry courtesy is otten. forgotten.

Mound Street, Columbus, Ohio. > — w ^ T 4 A Y FEVER is endemic catarrh. •^ / ^ ^ ^ ^ i i is caused by some irritating sub stance in the atmosphere during the late summer months. It is generally thought that th e pollen of certain weeds and flowers is the cause of it. Change of locality seems to be the only rational cure. The use of Peruna, iowerer, stimulates the nervous system ^to resist the effect of the poisonous -emanations and sometimes carries'the victim through the hay fever season without an attack of the disease. A large number of people rely upon Peruna for this purpose. Those who . """•-tio not find it convenient to change their location to avoid Hay Fever, ould do well to give Peruna a trial. It has proven of priceless value to many people. Three Great Conversationalists. The three greatest conversationalists with whom it has been my good fortune to come into touch were Maz zlni, Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes and Bisn&rk. Of these, Pr. Holmes was the most spirited in the ' bel esprit sense; Bismarck the most imposing and at the same time the most entertaining in point of wit, sarcasm, anecdote, and, narrative of historical Interest, brought out with rushing vivacity and with lightning-like illumination of conditions, facts and men. * In Mazzinl words there breathed such a warmth and depth of coavlc-. tion, such enthusiasm of faith in the sacredness of the principles pro* fesaed and of the aims pursued by !him, that it was difficult to resist such a power of fascination.—Carl Schur* in McClure's Magazine. President Takes Hand in Bringing Fugitive to Justice—May Return on Refrigerating Ship. Chicago.—Paul O. Stensland is absolutely tn the custody of Assistant State's Attorney Harry Olson at Tangier, Morocco. This information was obtained in a cablegram from Mr. Olson, received Friday by Acting State's Attorney Barbour, as follows: "Stensland turned over to me." The brevity of the dispatch leaves much to conjecture, but Mr. Barbour oelievos that Mr. Olson has brushed iside all difficulties aud is in a position to start for home with his prisoner as soon as a ship is available. The action of the United States •epresentatives at Tangier In turning Stensland over to Mr. Olson is beiieved- to 4>©-due to the cable gram sent 'rom the state department at Washngton, in accordance with the inductions of President Roosevelt. The president wired from Oyster 3ay that he desired the department )f state to go to any necessary ex* 'ent in the effort to bring Stensland to yjstlce, adding: 'He is one of the most obnoxious :ypes of criminals. He robbed hunlreds of very poor people, and is laid to have caused several sulfides." The present indications are that Stensland will return to America on he United States refrigerating ship' ilacier, unless some better method of xansportation is1 found by Mr. 01- *on. * It is undesirable to take the pris- )ner through any foreign country, for tear of possible extradition entanglements. The ship Glacier, if it is available, will solve the problem, for this ressel is expected to sail direct for the United States without stopping on :he way. Nothing 8uecstds Liks "EGG-0-8EE."

AND CONSIDER THE AU.-IMPORTANT FACT \ That in addressing Mrs. Pinkham you are confiding your private ills to a woman —a woman whose experience with women s diseases covers twenty-five years. The present Mrs. Pinkham is the daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham, and for many years under her direction, and since her decease,her advice has been freely given to sick women. Many women suffer in alienee and drift along from bad to worse, knowing full well that they ought to have immediate assistance, but a natural modesty impels them to shrink from exposing themselves to the questions and probable examinations of even their family physician. It is unnecessary. Without money or price you can consult a woman whose knowledge from actual experience is great. Mrs. PInkham'i Standing Invitation: Women suffering from any form of female weakness are invited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass. All letters are received, opened, read and answered by women only. A interesting facts about woman can freely talk of her private illness to a have been published in woman; thus has been established the eternal confidence between Mrs. Pinkham and the women of America which has never been broken. Out of the vast volume of experience which she has to draw from, it is more than possible that she has gained the very knowledge that will help your case. She asks nothing in return except your good-will, and her advice has relieved thousands. Surely any woman, rich or poor, is very foolish if she does not take advantage of this generous offer of assistance.—Lydia E. Pink* ham Medicine Co., Lynn, Mass* ,'»~ .

Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, a remedy "Which has beeu before the American people for a generation, is still accomplish* iug wonderful results as is evidenced by the following interview with Mrs. Ra- > chael Gardner, of Wiisey, Kaus, "It was very strange," she says, "I never conld tell what caused it aud • neither could auybody else. For a long • time I had tad spells with my stomach. " The pain would commence about my heart aud was so deadly agonizing that I "would have to scream aloud. Sometimes it would last several hours and I would have to take laudanum to stop it. Besides this I had a headache almost constantly, day and night, that nearly crazed me, so yon see I suffered a great deal. Aud when I think of the agony I ensured it still makes me shudder. " 'Doctors,'did you say? Their medicine made me sicker. I couldn't take it aud I kept growing worse until a frieud advised me to take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and I did.

New York, Sept. 8.—When congress cneets at the beginning of next December Senator Chauncey M. Depew will 3e found in his seat. This assurance was made by a member of his family. "Senator Depew's recovery has been slow, but the gains he has made have been held," he said. "At no" time within the last year has he been in such good health and spirits, and the doctors assert that if the improvement continues he will be equal to the strain, of another session of congress." For several month* Senator Depew has been in retirement at his home in Dubbs Ferry. The nature of his,- nmlady ha» Assrer seen made known, but was generally understood to have been in the nature of a nervous break down. ALLEGES CARRIERS ARE UNFAIR Wichita (Kan.)

Washington.—Three petitions, were flled Thursday with the interstate commerce commission by the Johnson- Larimer Dry Goods company, of Wichita, Kan., against the Mallory line of steamers sailing out of New York, the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe railway, the Wabash, and about 40 other lines, alleging unjust, unreasonable and discriminatory rates on cotton fabrics and knit goods shipped to Wichita, as against the rates accorded various shipping centers in the west. The interstate commerce commission made public an order calling upon the railroads of the country for information in regard to block signaling practice: and electric signaling appliances. The Information is asked in order that the commission may comply with a Joint resolution passed at the last session of congress. Death in Vat of Hot Water. Detroit, Mich.—John Mielke, laborer at the plant of the Railway Steel company, is dead after having beep parboiled in a pit of hot water. Mielke's shoes had become greasy from walking about the engine room and as he was passing the pit, which received the boiling water from the cylinders of the engine, he slipped and fell headlong into the scalding liquid. He was entirely immersed, being practically parboiled from foot and for five hours suffered most intense agony until death brought relief. Mexico is the possessor of such vast and valuable soda lakes that the government refuses to dispose of them to anyone or at any price. President Diaz believing that they are yet to become sources of enormous income to the country, just as the nitrate of soda beds are to Chini. At only one other place in the world is natural soda found under conditions which admit of industrial development, and even there it must be shipped hundreds of miles by rail and many tons of water must be evaporated, by. coal to obtain a ton of the product. But at the Bay of Adair, only a mile from the coast of Lower California, under the blazing sun of the desert, lie vast lakes of crystals of carbonate of soda,, with the appea range of masses of snow and ice, but from which will be made millions of tons of soap and other millions of tons of glass. The world's consumption amounts to hundreds of thousands of tons annually, and nearly all of it is manufactured from common salt with the use of expensive machinery, while at Adair bay nature does all the work in producing an article worth $75 per ton. It is estimated that there is enough soda on top of the ground to produce 100 tons a day for 75 years. Following we publish two letters from a woman who accepted this invitation. Note the result: First letter. Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— " For eight years I have suffered something terrible every month. The pains are excruciating and 1 can hardly stand them.

A Ky. lady, speaking about food, says: "I was accustomed to eating all kinds of ordinary food until, for some reason, indigestion and nervous prostration set in. "After I had run down seriously my attention was called to the necessity of some change in my diet, and I discontinued my ordinary breakfast and began using Grape-Nuts with a good quantity of rich cream. "In a few days my condition changed in a remarkable way, and I began to have a strength that I had never been possessed of before, a vigor of body and a poise of mind that amazed me. It was entirely new in my experience. "My former attacks of indigestion had been accompanied by heat flashes, and many times my condition was distressing, with blind spells of dtaainess, head to 1 r u s n °f blood to the head and neuralgic pains in the cheat. "Since using Grape-Nuts, alone for breakfast I have been free from these troubles, except at times when I have indulged in' rich, greasy foods In quantity,.then 4 ^onld^h^ warned by a pain under the left ihoujder blade, and unless I heeded the; warning the old trouble would come back, hut when J finally got- tor know where these troubles originated.I returned to«my'^rape-Nuts and cream and the pain andolHBturbtnce'.le^ very quickly.

Name "Cut out hot cream of tartar biscuit" used to be a common, every-day remark among physicians when die* cussing items of diet for their patients. But alum baking powder biscuits are never mentioned in this respect. Why? Because it's the cream of tartar that is objectionable and injurious, and yet there are some people who to-day continue to use the old cream of tartar baking powder, and wonder why they are always, ailing. His 8cheme Worked It is related that a certain man was recently very sad because his wife had gone out of town on a visit, which she would not shorten tn spite of hla appeals to her to come home. He finally hit upon a plan to induce her to return. He sent her a copy of each of the local papers with one Item clipped out, and when she wrote to find out what it was he had clipped out he refused to tell her. The scheme worked admirably!

Dr. William Belmont, cf Cleveland, Ohio, says: "Tour Castorla stands • first in Its class. In my thirty years of practice I can say I never have found anything that so filled the place." Dr. J. H. Taft, of Brooklyn, N. Y., says: "1 nave need your Castorla and ' fotmd it an excellent remedy m my household and private practice for masgr^ears. The formula Is excellent D t S . J . Hamlen, of Detroit, Jdich., says: "I prescribe your Castorla extensively, as I nave never found anything to equal It for children's troubles. I am aware that there are imitations in the field, but I always see that my patients get Fletcher's.'' Dr.Win. J McCrann, of Omaha, Neb., says: "As the father of thirteen children I certainly know something about your great medicine, and aside from any own family experience I have in my years of practice found Castorla a popular and efficient remedy in almost every home." Dr. £ . B . Clausen, of Philadelphia, Pa., says: "The name that your Castorla has made for itself in the tens of thousands of homes blessed by the presence cf children, scarcely needs to be supplemented by the endorsement of the medical profession, but I, for one, most heartily endorse It and believe it an excellent remedy." Dr. R. 1L 'Ward, of Kansas City, Mo., 6ays: "Physicians generally do not prescribe proprietary preparations, but in the case of Castorla my experience, like Chat of many other" physicians, has taught me to make an ex* ception. t prescribe your Castorla in my practice because I have found i t to be a thoroughly reliable remedy for children's complalnjts. Any physician who has raised a family, as I have, will join me in heartiest reconv mendatlon of Castorla."

Tbe production of gold in the mines of South Africa for the month of June was the greatest ever recorded.

The report is that a local religious institution which is for "young women" has drawn the deadline of youth at 35. Every woman over that age will be marked 23 and requested to sktdTloo; This la painful.—It is unkind. What is worse, it is impracticable. We are glad the task is to be performed by women. Xo man nor set of men would ever have dared tackle such a problem—not they. This is simply another example of woman's inhumanity to woman. We have been told for many ages that a woman is as old as she looks and a man is as old as he feels. Just now, we say it with regret, most women look like 60 and most men feel like Methuselah. But the general rule seems a good one. It is a plain, unpalatable fact that women will deceive as to their age as long as possible and then openly lie about it. There are many women who we're born during the ravages of the qivil war who still claim sweetly to be in the thirties. Lord Milner, the former high commissioner for South Africa, has received through the duke of Somerset an address expressing appreciation of his services in South Africa signed by 370,000 persons.

SHOWS HOW LAW WORKS Ninety of Those Released Violated the Parole and Ninety-two Have Received Absolute Discharge. Board of Pardons' Report. There have been 419 convicts released from the penal Institutions of the state during the past 15 months under the indeterminate sentence act passed by the legislature at its last session. Of that number, 14.32 percent have violated their parole. This information is furnished by the state board of pardons. Of the 419 convicts released, 237 were released from Ionia, 73 from Jackson, 42 from Marquette, and 47 from the house of correction in Detroit. There have been 92 of the paroled convicts who have kept their obligation and have received an absolute discharge. The number who have violated their parole is 90, and 34 of them have been returned to the prisons in which they were serving sentences, while 26 are at liberty, with warrants issued for their arrest. Nineteen of the convicts committed a felony while out on parole, and 41 failed to comply with the parole obligations. Secretary Murray, in making up the report, states that under the old definite sentence act the average length of time served by criminals convicted of larceny was 1 year 3 months and 5 days, while under the indeterminate act that class of criminals have served 1 year 4 months and 27 days. Storm Did Great Damage. Escanaba ore docks and factories were damaged to the extent of several thousand dolUrs by a wind storm which passed over this city Tuesday afternoon. Two tramways, each 300 feet in length, connecting the .Northwestern ore docks, were completely demol- JshejL_ , Two giant coal-hoisting towers, each weighing 400 tons, on the dock of the Reiss Coal Co., broke from their fastenings and forced down the track for 300 feet before they crashed into two stationary towers, badly damaging both runway hoists. Two sides of the brick boiler house of the Escanaba Wooden Ware Co.'s plant were blown in, damaging the machinery and making it necessary to close down the plant until repairs can be made. The entire end of the warehouse of the Stephenson dock was carried out. A crew of 20 men was at work on the hoisting towers at the Reles Coal Co.'s dock when the giant frameworks of steel began to move and gained momentum with each foot. The crew rushed out on the bridges extending over the docks and dropped to the coal piles, 20 feet below. Albert Smith, fireman of one of the towers, was burned about the face and arms in an attempt to draw the fire from his boiler before the crash came. Miss Hill's Story. Miss Myrtle Hill, the young woman rumored to have been engaged to marry Lloyd Dynes, the telegraph operator mysteriously murdered some weeks ago, appeared at the office of the Kalamazoo Telegraph Wednesday morning and denied ihat sne had ever met Dynes. Miss Hill said: "I have a woman enemy here in Kalamazoo, and she has starred all this talk. My brother-in-law, S. W. Taylor, was once the operator at Galien, and when I read of the murder of Dynes, I remarked about Mr. Taylor having once worked there. She heard me say this and hence the gossip. "That postal card dated September 10, from New Buffalo, in my mind came from the same source as this other talk, and could be traced to this woman. I don't" believe that any woman had anything to ,do with the murder of Lloyd Dynes." KiUedi by a Vicious Bull. Green Olttey, aged about 43 years, one of the well known and highly respected farmers of this locality, died at Harper hospital, Detroit, Wednesday evening, from injuries received while caring for an ugly bull at the state fair grounds at Detroit, at the commencement of the fair. A widow, one daughter, his mother, and a large circle of relatives survive him. He was brought to Vernon for burial, this being his home town for many years past, having formerly come from New York state. Mr. Olney was owner of a large and valuable farm, and was known in this part of the state as owner and breeder of valuabla cattle and horses. FOUR SISTERS. Calvin Carr,'of Flint, who attempted to kill his mother because she refused to give him his pension papers, was adjudged insane in the probate court and committed to the Pontiac asylum. Madison Stoddard, aged 73 years, of Penfleld, died Saturday from injuries inflicted by an over-spirited heif. er which took fright at a street car Jn Battle Creek and ran away, dragging Stoddard behind. He recovered In time to undergo a similar experience 09 his farm, which resulted in death. He had lived nearly forty years on the farm where he died. Three Celebrate Their Birthday and a Fiftieth Anniversary. Four sisters celebrated the fiftieth anniversary at their arrival In Muskegon and -also the birthday anniversaries of three of their number. A feature was the supper, fifty candies on an Immense birthday cake, lighting the table. The celebration was in the form of a reunion and fifty relatives, Including children and grand-children, gathered between 5 and 11 o'clock. The sisters are Mrs. Alexander Marcoux, 142 Sanford street; Mrs. Adeline Tarte, 44 Jefferson street; Mrs. Larry Leveque, 70 Jefferson street, and Mrs. Elizabeth Davids, 349 Lake street. The first three mentioned observed their birthday anniversaries. Mrs. Marcoux and Mrs/Tarte are twins and were born September IS, 1841. They strongly resemble each other. By a strange coincidence, Mrs. Leveque was born two years later on the same date as her sisters, Mrs. Davids is younger than her sisters, having been born sixty years ago. Port Huron's Forest Fire. A forest fire which raged in the southern section of Port Huron Thursday afternoon and night, threatened a portion of the populated district with destruction. Many families residing in the path of the fire packed their furniture and goods and were ready to move out if the blase spread. Several people, who were in the radius of the flames, were compelled to leave their homes and seek shelter elsewhere. An aged and sick woman named Gill had to be carried to a neighbor's home. The devastated fields cover 3d acres. No serious damage was done, but it was necessary to plow the ground to save the surrounding homes. Another fire occurred at the home of Charles Haviland at the same time. The damage was |700, Seventeen Injured. Car No. 517 of the Detroit, Monroe & Toledo Short line ran into an open switch and crashed into a gravel car Tuesday evening a short distance south of the viaduct crossing of the Michigan Central and Wabash roads in Ecorse and half a mile south of thu River Rouge. Motorman Augustus Menzel, after putting on the air, jumped, and was so seriously injured that he is not expected to survive. Of the 16 others who were hurt, it is believed all will recover. The injured were cared for at Detroit, Mon roe and Toledo. The Michigan Bean Crop. "Do you know," said Secretary Kelsey, of the Bean Jobbers' association in session in Saginaw, "that Michigan Is the most important bean state in the union? Our estimated crop this year of 5,000,000 bushels leads them all. It will surprise most people to know, too, that the handlers of beans pay out to farmers and growers about $1,000,000 more annually than the much talked of:sugar beet factories/The Michigan Linn, also, has the finest quality of any produced, being conceded in the markets to be superior to that of the celebrated New England grown varle^ ty." MICHIGAN IN BRIEF. The ll-month-old babe of F. Slusher, Garfield township, ate poison fly paper Tuesday, but will live. The broom factory, which was installed some time after the institute for the blind was opened in Saginaw, has been particularly (Successful, and at present, although Operating both day and night, is fully a month behind in its orders. Because two women became so Intoxicated in the wine room under the grand stand at the West Michigan fair grounds that they were arrested for disorderly conduct, the sheriff closed up the place. The directors of the fair canceled the privilege held by the proprietor of the bar. The recent statements at the four Pontiac banks show an increase of $35,000 in the total amount of savings deposits. This means an increase of $3 per capita for every man, woman and child in Pontiac during a period of three months. If the prosperity continues Pontiac people bid fair to have more money than they know what to do with. Dewitt C. Leach, a member of congress from the Lansing district previous to the civil war, and now a man 84 years of age, is visiting In that city. He was state librarian in 1857 and was Iwice elected to congress. In congress he was a prominent abolitionist and when the state of South Carolina offered a reward for the heads of prominent anti-slavery agitators his ajme was on the list.

NEW YOftK.-^The controversy hetween Mrs. Leslie Carter Payne, the actress, and Miss Norma Leslie Munro, the reputedly wealthy daughter of the late millionaire publisher, Norman Leslie Munro, continues to excite interest among the dilettante friends of these two women who hav% furnished more space, continuously, for the newspapers than probably any two other women in New York. Unquestionably there is a sentiment favorable to the actress' side of the question, for, while the emotional Mrs. Carter Payne is not Intensely popular, the people who have been ac- ^ ^ I B B JB^MIIIHIII 4u&tated with the career of the two women in ^ i f H l J B B H I t h e P™6611* controversy are also conversant with * I i V J A ^ 2 ^ 3 B ^ H I t h e recent allegations made against Miss Munro u KlavajgCB^L^LHlllllI o v Mrs. Robert Osborn of playhouse and shirtwaist fame. Mrs. Osborn's experience with Miss Munro was so identical with that which Mrs. Carter Payne is experiencing that their mutual friends and that section of the public which has hung agape upon the published accounts of the qulxotleal lives these people lead- are beginning to wonder if, after all, the strenuous Miss Munro is not a "hoodoo." No room for doubt remains that Mrs. Carter Payne and her recent "dearest friend" aro at daggers' points. Further sensational developments are promised when Miss Munro returns from Bar Harbor and Mrs. Carter Payno from Shelter Island to their apartments adjoining each other in the building owned by the Munroe estate. Fatally Burned. Charles Marshall, aged 68 years, a farmer living in Spaulding township, died in Saginaw hospital Tuesday night from burns received Sunday at his home on the farm. Marshall was unmarried and lived alone. Sunday when he retired he left a lighted lamp near the bed. The lamp was overturned and set fire to the bedding. The kerosene saturated his clothing and burned the flesh on his legs from his knees down, in a frightful manner. He was unconscious when discov,- ered by neighbors Monday morning. The house was filled with smoke, and Marshall had been overcome. He was taken to Saginaw, but did not rally. «U33tUt_ AS RIVAL TO LANQTRY. Speaking of an actress brings to mind the fact that Lillian Russell has decided to seek honors on the turf this fall. The favorite commedtenne will not desert the footlights but she has been .Imbued with the racing fever and has decided to try her hand at the game. Lillians colors wiii be carried by horses bred by herself in England. ' When Mi88 Russell went abroad more than a year ago she expected to stay in Europe for twe or three years at least, and it was then that she concluded to become a rival of Mrs. Langtry for racing honors in England. She wanted to race horses' of her own breeding and John S. McDonald waa commissioned to buy a number of high bred mares. The •p'tirchases were made early last year and a majority of the mares now have foals, there being three colts by Carbine in the lot. The entire list of marcs and foals will be shipped to this country this autumn, probably In October. The mares will be sent to a farm, probably to Kentucky, while the foals will be reserved for racing year after next unleos there is another change of plans in the meantime. Commutes Death Sentences. Helsingfors.—Gen. Baron Salza has commuted the death sentences of the Sveaborg mutineers to penal servitude for life in one case and in the others to terms of . impprlsonment ranging from 12 to 20 years.

Mexico City,—The terrible storm which swept over the Pacific coast of the republic for nearly three weeks has ended, after having occasioned immense damage throughout an extensive region. Girl Impaled on Pfcktt Fence, South Bend, Ind.—Helen Keer, aged six* fejl from a second-story window Friday morning and was impaled on a picket fence.

For a time the works, valued at over $2,000,- 000, were threatened with destruction. The pattern workB were badly damaged. QUIPS FROM THE PROFESSOR. TW© Points Seorad In Humorous hut effective^ Manner, "You don't seem to understand," blustered the maafwho was trying to make art potot with a univepity professor. "I ttU you, sir, I V>ught to . * know, I'm an alumni of this institution myself." "Are you? That's nothing singular," was the witty rejoinder, uttered so quietly that the flustering man, never knew what had happened, says the Youth's Companion. On another occasion the same professor, having ordered from, a music publishing house a copy of a "Valasr ^ Impromptu" by a certain French con* ** poser, received an "Impromptu Walts" by another man. The publishers, when called to account for their mistake, replied rather insolently that they had been in the music publishing business a long time, and had yet to discover the difference between a ' Valse Impromptu" and an "Impromptu Walts." # ' Would Dr. Smith kindly state to them ^ that difference? "Gentlemen," wrote the genial professor, in answer. "I have not, like yourselves, been in the music publishing business, and am therefore not fully qualified to inform you; but since, in your extremity, you have appealed to me, I would venture to suggest that the difference between a •Valce Impromptu' and an 'Impromptu Waltz' may be similar t-> the difference between a blind Venetian and a Venetian blind." Diderot and Scott. Diderot Is reported to have said that he would cut off an arm not to have written a certain one of his novels. Some attribute to Scott the saying that he had written no line which dying he would wish to blot. The New Standard. So few women are not\ smartly dressed nowadays that tlje new standard of praise Is "She' wears her clothes well." Better this than beauty that fades.—Boston Herald. Not All on the Surface.

"I don't know. But there was an explosion; I heard it. Surely Uncle •Somerville wouldn't—" The secretary shook his head. "No; I think you may exonerate Mr. Darrah, personally; in fact I am quite •sure you may." "But someone planned it You knew it was going ^ o happen—you were out here watching for it." "Was I?" The secretary's smile was a mere baring of the teeth. His blood was the sycophantic ' lymph which flows in the veins of those who do murder at a great man's nod. "It Is horribly unfair," she went on. •"I understand the sheriff is here. •Couldn't he have prevented this?" Jastrow's reply was an evasion. "Oh, it's all legal enough. That bare place up there is a placer claim. Supposing the owners found it necessary to put in a few sticks of dynamite to loosen the frozen ground. It is Mr. Winton's misfortune if his railroad happens to be in the way, don't you think?" "But it was planned beforehand, and you knew of it," she insisted. Her eyes were flashing, and the secretary's desire for possession warmed into something like admiration. "Did I?" "Yes, you did." "It would be impolite to contradict you." "It is more impolite not to answer my question. Couldn't the sheriff, have prevented it?" "Supposing he didn't want to prevent it? Supposing he brought the men who did it over on his train last night?" "Then I say again it is horribly unfair." The secretary's rejoinder was a platitude: "Everything is fair in love or war." "But this is neither." she retorted. "Think not?" he said, coolly. "Wait and you'll See. And a word in your ear, Miss Carteret: you are one of us, you know, and you mustn't be disloyal. I know what you did yesterday after you read those telegrams." Virginia's face became suddenly wooden. Until that moment it had not occurred to her that Jastrow's motive in showing her the two telegrams might have been carefully calculated. Though she would have disavowed it emphatically, Miss Carteret was an aristocrat of the aristocrats; and the conviction that the secretary had deliberately gone about to establish a confidential relation filled her with cold anger. "I have never given you the right to speak to me that way, Mr. Jasstrbw," she said, with the faintest pos* sible emphasis on the courtesy prefix; and with that she turned from him to focus her field glass on the construction camp below. At the Utah stronghold all was activity of the fiercest Winton had' raced back with his news of the catastrophe, and the camp was alive with men clustering like bees and swarming upon the flat cars of the material train to be taken to the front While she looked, studiously ignoring the man behind her, Virginia saw the big octopod engine come clamoring Mp the grade, shoring the flats before it, losing itself quickly in the doubling of the gulch loop to reappear presently on the scene of the disaster. In a twinkling the men were off and at work, and the frosty morning air rang, with the battle shout of labor triumphant—or meaning to be. Virginia's color rose and the brown eyes filled swiftly. One part of her ideal—her masculine ideal—was courage- of the sort that rises the higher for ^reverses. So the prompt counterstroke filled her with joy, and at the moment Winton was as near gaining a partisan as the Rajah was to losing one. But at the heart-thrilling instant •he remembered the eoW-eyed secretary, and, lest he should spy upon her emotion as he had upon her sympathy, ahe turned quickly and took refuge in fltegar. ' . 1 4 the open compartment of the Jmjpiary the waiter was laying the ie»ll« for the early breakfast, and Battle and the Reverenu V> illiam ware at the window, watching the stirring Industry battle now in full swing on the Opposite slope. Virginia joined Seas, "Isn't it a shame!" she said. "Of •omsa, I want our side to win; hut it latsiurapfc a pity that we can't fight haired cousin looked bar, of understanding, and Cal vert said: "Isn't what a shame?7 thereby eliciting a crisp explanation from Virgin! in which she set wellfounded suspicion in the light of fact touching the cause of the landslide. The Reverend Billy shook his head. It was his metier to deprecate violence, and he did It. "Such things may be within the law —of business; but they will surely breed bad blood and lead to reprisals, I hope—" The interruption was the Rajah in his proper person, bustling out fiercely to a conference with his myrmidons. By tacit consent the three at the window fell silent. There was - Winton was-in- the* tfctek of the pickand- shovel melee, urging it on, when Biggin ran up. "HI!" he shouted. "Flxin* to take another play-day in Carbonate? Lookee down yonder!" Winten looked and came alive to the possibilities in the turning of a leaf." "Guns!" he yelled; and at the word of command the tools were flung aside, and the track foree,. over 200 strong, became an army, not with banners, bat weR-weaponed withal. Winton snapped out his order* lfke a martinet major of drill squads. "Mulcahy, take half the men and go up the grade till you can rake those fellows without hitting the car. Branagan, you take the other half and go down along till you can cross-fire with Mulcahy. Aim low, ^oth of you; and the man who fires before he gets the word from me will break his neck at a rope's end. Fall in!" "By Jove!- said Adams. "Are you going to resist? That spells felony, doesn't it?" Winton pointed to the waiting octopod. "I'm going to order the 215 down out of the way; you may go with her if you like." "I guess not!" quoth the technolo- "COME DOWN!" HiS BELLOWED. battle and murder and sudden death in the Rajah's eye. The event for which they waited did not linger. There was a hasty mustering of armed men under the windows of thej Rosemary, and they heard Sheriff Deckert's low voiced instructions to his posse. "Take it slow and easy, boys, and don't get rattled. It's the majesty of the law against a mob, and the Micks *f*>Hr. « * gian, calmly lighting a fresh cigarette. And then to the water boy, who was acting quartermaster, "Give me a rifle and a cartridge belt, Chunky, and I'll stay here with the boss." "And where do I come in?" said Biggin, reproachfully. "You'll stay out, if your head's level. You've done enough now to send you to Canyon City, if anybody cares to take it up. Heavens and earth, man! won't fight when it comes to a show-/*^0 y o u forget that you are a sworn down. Keep in line with the car ai officer of the law?" long as you can. There ain't goings to be a shot flred from up yonder so long as there's a chance of hitting tue car instead of you. Now, then; guns to the front! itfeady!" The Reverend Billy rose, and the yelns in his forehead stood out like whip cords. "What are you going to do?" said Virginia. She was standing, too, and her hand, trembling a little, was en his arm. The clerical meekness in the athlete's reply was conspicuous by its absence. "I'm going to give Winton a tip if it's the laBt thing I ever do. They'll rush him like a rat in a corner!" She shook her head and pointed eastward to the mouth of the lateral gulch. Under cover of a clump of flrscrub a man in a wice-flapped hat and leather breeches was climbing swiftly to the level of the new line, cautiously waving a handkerchief as a peace token, "That is the man who arrested M*. Winton yesterday. This time he is going to fight on the other side. He'll carry the warning." "Think so?" said Calvert "I am sure of it. Open the window, please. I want to see better." As yet there was no sign of preparation on the embankment. For the moment the arms of the track force were laid aside, and every man was plying plek or shovel as tt his Mfe depended on the amount of earth he I ain't a-forgettin' nothing," said Peter, cheerfully, casting himself flat behind a heap of earth on the dumpedge and sighting one section of his hip battery over the breastwork. Winton pounced upon him, gasping. "Here, you fire-eater! you mustn't shoot!" he protested. "It's only a long bluff, and I'm going to raise the limit so those fellows can't come in. There are ladies in that car!" "You play your bluftln' hand and lemme alone," "said the ex-cowboy. "I'm jest goin' to have a little fun with old Bart Deckert wnile the sun's a-«hln« in'." It was at this moment, while the sheriff's posse was picking its way gingerly over the loose rock and earth dam formed uy the landslide, that the window went up in the Rosemary and Winton saw Virginia. Without meaning to, she gave him his battle-word. While she looked on he would fight to win, andHhat without violence. "We are a dozen Winchesters to your one, Mr. Deckert, and we shall resist force with force. Order your men back or there will be trouble." Winton stood put on the edge of the cutting, a solitary figure where a few minutes before the earth had been flying from a hundred shovels. The sheriff's reply was an order, but not for retreat. "He's one of the men we want; cover him!" he commanded; and Virginia caught her breath. Was she to see him shot down before her eyes? Happily the tragedy was only potential. Unless the public occasion appeals strongly to the sympathies or the passions, a picked-up sheriff's posse Is not likely to have very good metal in It. Winton was covered by three or four of the guns, pointed awkwardly, ana Peter Biggin laughed. "Don't be no ways nervous," he said in an aside to Winton. "Them professional venlry chumps couldn't hit the side o* Pacific Peak." Winton held his ground, waiting the turn of events and looking on, not without interest, while the sheriff tried to drive h»s men up a bare s l o e commanded by 200 rifles to right and left. The attempt, was a humiliating failure. Being something less than soldiers trained to do or die, the deputies hung back to a man, hugging tne backgrounding shelter of the Rosemary as if they were shackled to the private car by invisible chains. Virginia, standing ai the open window and trembling with excitement, could not forbear a smile. It was too much for the sheriff, the added straw, and his exhortation to his foot-posse burst into caustic profanity. Whereupon Mr. Peter Biggin rose up in his place, took careless aim, and sent a bullet to plow a little furrow in the ice and frozen snow within an inch of ijeckert's heels. "Ex-cuse me, Bart," he drawled, "but no cuss words don't go in this here highly moril show. They pains us extreme." Under ordinary circumstances—the. sheriff would have replied to Mr. Biggin's salutation in kind. As* it was, he ignored Peter Biggin as a person who could ^¾ ^rgued with at leisure and turned his attention to Winton. "Come down!" he bellowed. Winton laughed. The tide had turned, and he knew it. "Let me return the invitation. Come up, and you may read your warrants to us all day." The crisis was past. Deckert withdrew his men, and at. Winton's signal the track layers came in and the earth began to fly again. Virginia sighed her relief, and Bessie plucked up courage to go to the window" which she had deserted in the moment of impending battle. "Oh-h-h! I wish Uncle Somerville would take us away!" she gasped. "Can't, you persuade him, Virginia, dear?" - — "I'll The Age of Machinery. We live in the age of machinery. The thinking, directing mind becomes daily of more account, while mere brawn. fails correspondingly in value from day to day. That eccentric philosopher, Elbert Hubbard, says in one of his essays, "where a machine will do better work than the human hand, we prefer to let the machine do the work." It has been but a few years since the cotton gin, the "spinning Jenny" f and the power loom displaced the hand picker, the spinning wheel and the hand loom; since the reaper and binder, the lake and tedder, the mowing machine took the place of the old cradle, scythe, pitchfork and hand rake; since the friction match superseded the flint and tinder; since the modern pajnt factory replaced the slab and muller, the paint pot and paddle. In every case where machinery has been introduced to replace hand labor, the laborers have resisted the change; and as the weavers, the sempstresses and the farm laborers protested against newfangled looms, sewing machines and agricultural implement*,- so in recent times compositors have protested against type-setting machines, glass blowers against bottle blowing machines, and painters against ready mixed paints. And as in the case of these short-sighted classes of an earlier day, so with their imitators of to-day, the protest will be in vain. It is a protest against civilization, against the common weal, against their own welfare. The history of all mechanical Improvements shows that workmen are the first to be benefited by them. The invention of the sewing machine, instead of throwing thousands of women out of employment, increased the demand to such an extent that thousands of women have been employed, at better wages, for shorter hours and easier work where hundreds before* worked in laborious misery to eke out a pitiable existence. It was so with spinning and weaving machinery, with agricultural implements—in fafct, it is so with every notable improvement. The multiplication of \books in the last decade is a direct result of ,the invention of linotype machinery and, fast presses. The mixed paint industry, in which carefully designed paints for house painting are prepared on a large scale by special machinery, is another impriiv^ mejaJLjoJLthe same type. The try," said Virginia, gTavely, foreseeing future tragic situations too terrifying to be witnessed. "Breakfast is served," announced the waiter as calmly as if the morning meal were the only matter of consequence in a world of happenings. They gathered about the table, a silent trio made presently a quartette by the advent of Mrs. Carteret, who, *M<rom having her stateroom on the 7 peaceful side of the Rosemary, had neither seen nor heard anything of the Warlike episode with which the day had begun. Having weighty mr.tters to discuss with Sheriff Deckert, Mr. Darrah was late, so late that when he came in Virginia was the only one of the quartette who remained at tabic She. stayed to pour his coffee and to bespeak peace, knowing full well that' the time was unpropitious, but believing that the crisis was its own best excuse. (TO BE CONTINUED.) cheapness and generaPexcellence^ efthese products has so stimulated the consumption of- paint that the demand for the services of-painter8 has correspondingly multiplied. Before the advent of these goods a well-painted house was noticeable from its rarity, whereas to-day an ill-painted house is conspicuous. Nevertheless, the painters, as a rule, following the example set by the weavers, the sempstresses and the farm laborers of old, almost to a man. oppose tb«» Improvement. It is a real improvement, however, and simply because of that fact the sale of such products has increased until during the present year it will fall not far short of 90,000,000 or 100,000,000 gallons. Hindsight is always better than foresight, and most of us who deplore the sliurt-sightedness-of our ancestors— would do well to see that we do not in turn furnish "terrible examples" to our posterity. Cure for Whooping Cough. Irwin, Pa.—The "mine cure" for whooping cough among small children is attracting attention in this section, where the disease is almost epidemic. In one case a Jeannette father daily takes his ten-months-old baby girl down into the Pehn mine. He remains half an hour, comes to the surface for the same space of time, and again goes down and remains another half hour. This will be repeated daily for two weeks. The child has a severe case, and from a fit of coughing goes into spasms. A Pittsburg physician recommended the "mina cure", as the only profitable relief, DICTIONARY A T FAULT.

Clyde Fitch, at a dinner that he gave in honor of a noted dramatic critic, read from his library of scrap books a western criticism on Hamlet. The criticism, which was dated 1873, ran: "There is too much chinning in this piece. The author is behind the times, and seems to forget that wb^at we want nowadays is hair raising situations and detectives. "In the hands of a skillful playwright a detective would have been put upon the track of Hamlet's- uncle, and the old man would have been hunted down in a manner that would have lifted the audience out of their cowhides. "The moral of the piece is not good. The scene where Hamlet sasses his mother is a bad example to the rising generation. "Our advice to the author is more action, more love-making, and plenty of specialties. The crasy girl scene should he cut.out altogether and a rattling good song and dance substitute 1 ed." 1,. * .

More New Trains OB the Ann Arbor Railroad Now, that the summer tourist season is over, it naturally follows that the night trains on the Ann Arbor R. R. must be discontinued until the summer of 1907. The travel which they were put on to accommodate has ceased. Beautiful Chrystal Lake is slowly but surely losing its summer population and the big Royal Frontenac hotel at Frankfort is sulking behind closed doors after a must successful season. The management of the Ann Arbor R. R. hopes the time is not far distant when the through travel over it's lines will justify the operation of night trains the yenr around and the public may rest assured that when the demand for them manifests itself, the company will not be slow in responding. Believing that there are many people along it's lines who are gieatly inconvenienced through j lack of Sunday passenger service,: and desiring always to cater to the wishes of'the public, the company has decided to try the experiment of operating Sundays, as well as week days, it's through trains Nos. 1 and 4, between Toledo and Frankfort. It will change time Sunday, Sept. 23rd, after which date the above trains will run daily, and will continue on Sunday unless the company is satisfied after a reasonable trial that there is no demand for them.

WOMEN'S_NEGLECT SUFFERINGTHESUREPENALTY Health Thus Lost Is Restored by Lydls SL Plnkh&m's Vegetable Compound. r How many women do you know who are perfectly well and strong? "We hear everyday the same story over and over again. " I do not feel well; I ana so tired all the time ! " More than likely you speak the same "words yourself, and no doubt you feel far from well. The cause may be easily traced to some derangement of the female organs which manifests itself in depression of spirits, reluctance to go anywhere or do anything, backache, bearing-down pains, flatulency, nervousness, sleeplessness, or other female weakness. - These symptoms are but warnings that there is danger ahead, and unless heeded a life of suffering or a serious operation is the inevitable result. The never- f ailitfg remedy for all these symptoms is Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Miss Kate McDonald of Woodbridge, N..J., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham: " Restored health has meant BO much to me that I cannot help- from telling about it for the sake of other suffering women. " For a long time I suffered untold agony with a female trouble and irregularities, which made me a physical wreck, and no one thought I would recover, but Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has entirely cured me, and made me wetland strong, and I feel it my duty to tell other suffering women what a splendid medicine it is,'1 For twenty-five years Mrs. Pinkham, daughter-in-law of Lydia E Pinkham, has under her direction, and since her decease, been advising sick women free of charge. Her advice is free and always helpful. Address, Lynn, Mass. F r o m St. L o u i s a n d K a n s a s City v i a M . , K . & T . R ' y T o D a l l a s , Ft.

EX-GOVERNOR AARON T. BLISS Died from Stroke of Apoplexy in Milwaukee Sunday. Ex-Governor Aaron T. Bliss died at Sacred Heart Sanitarium at Milwaukee at 4 o'clock Sunday morning, of a stroke of apoplexy. The death was sudden, but not entirely unexpected, because his condition was such that a stroke was momentarily looked for. A few moments before he died he awoke and aroused his nurse, who took him his bathrobe. Mr. Bliss was returning to his bed with the aid of his nurse and was only a few feet from the bed when he was stricken and plunged to the floor. " Dr. E. S. Davis, hi3 private physician, who has been in constant attendance, was asleep in the next room. He was aroused by the nurse and hurried to his patient's assistance, but found him dead. Another Operator Assaulted. _ The assault upon H. L. Armstrong, Michigan Central night operator at Wlards, who' WAS knocked unconscious by a blow on the head by an unknown man while working at his key, is connected, it Is suspected, with the finding of a cold chisel, placed in the track just west of Wiards in such a manner that it would wreck a train. The discovery was made by a section boss. Armstrong was found by a freight train J2rew_at_.y-. 40 Tuesday nighT. He was unconsicioiis and leaning over his desk. Xo weapon could be found in the office, but it is believed the blow was dealt with a slung shot. Seventy-flve cents which was in his pocket was missing. The operator was brought to Ypsilanti on a passenger train and in the hospital at midnight recovered consciousness. —UAH 1 know is__thatI was sitting at , i . v*Wk*" SOUTHWEST" my key working when some one whom I did not even hear approach me dealt me a "terrible blow on the head. The next thing I knew I was in bed in the hospital. I saw no one around the station in the evening." David Gordon, aged about 16, who says he recently worked in the Hotel Cadillac, Detroit, was arrested on suspicion. He declares he was beating his way from Detroit to Three Rivera and was put off the train at Wlards at 5 p. m. The motive of the assault is declared by the officers to be robbery. The first report was that the operator was not robbed and that nothing was disturbed in the little depot. Armstrong is certain that he had some money in his trousers pocket when he was assaulted. When he regained consciousness he had none. No tickets are sold in the station and no money Is kept there. It Is simply a point where trains stop for water and receive orders. Armstrong lived on the Harris farm near the station. He came from Grand Rapids with his wife a few months ago. The point where the chisel was found in the track was a lonely spot between here and Wlards, near the upper bridge. The crime bears some resemblance to the murder of Operator Dynes at Galien. The suspect now under arrest is not believed to be guilty. Barbarous Treatment. The family of Michael Lukowski, ol Bay City, for several months persecuted by some unknown persona, is in a state of terror over the continu' ance of acts of violence. Their home has been fired twice by an incendiary, the house was entered while the family slept and $100 worth of clothiqp was slashed to pieces with a knife, and now a child is ill from drinking medicine left on the door step. Around the bottle was a paper with "Take this and get off the earth" written upon it. At the same time the stream oi anonymous threatening letters continues. One daughter^ Louise, is the special subject of attack, and death by mysterious means is threatened. Matters growing out of the trouble have been in court, but apparently tho family do not know who their persecutor is. The police and United States AWFUL PSORIASIS 35 YEARS, authorities have been working on the case for over three month3 without finding a single clue. Every efforl has been made to trace the letters back. The handwriting is always the same, although the signatures art sometimes different, in one instance the name of a prominent attorney be ing used. Members of the household take turns at staying awake all night ta watch for attacks. There are ten children in the family. Live Wire Victim. Howard McKenzie, a lineman in the employ pt the Lansing lighting commission, narrowly escaped death Wednesday when he accidentally touched a live wire while climbing a pole. He was unable to free himself, but fellow workmen finally pulled him away and let him easily to the ground. He was bleeding at the mouth and his shirt was smoldering. In a doctor's office he soon regained consciousness. The Democratic territorial convention of New Mexico indorsed William J. Bryan for the presidency in 1908, Mrs. Johanna •Scheffler-Strong, now in Battle Creek, former domestic in Banker Stensland's home in Chicago, believes, hi* dowitfaiLdua to misplaced confldeh6eTlB frWMgflne denies'file alleged intimacy with women. Saginaw's Great Drouth. Rains partially broke one of the worst drouths Saginaw county has suf fered in years. Pasture fields hav« been discarded long ago and farmert have been feeding their stock from silos. The excessive heat has ripened everything prematurely. "October" po tatoes are already on the market and late fruits are all a month early. Dairy butter is not to be had, while eggs are at December prices. The ground hat been so hard that farmers could not plow for fall wheat sowing. These same conditions prevail for 150 mllet north, the drouth covering probably 15,000 square miles. Produce men say that the damage to farm products has exceeded 11,000,000 in the "dry" belt, Terrible Scaly Humor in Patches All Over the Body—Skin Cracked and Bleeding—Cured by Cuticura. "I was afflicted with psoriasis for thirty-five years. It was in patches all over my body. I used three cakes of Cuticura Soap, six boxes of Ointment and two bottles of Resolvent. In thirty days I was Completely cured, and I think permanently, as it was about five years ago. The psoriasis first made its appearance in red spots, generally forming a circle, leaving in the center a spxJt about the site of a silver dollar of sound flesh. In a short time the affected circle would form a heavy dry scale of a white silvery appearance and would gradually drop off. To remove the -entire scales by bathing or using oil to soften them the flesh would be perfectly raw, and a light discharge of bloody substance would ooze out. That scaly crust would form again in twenty-four hours. It was worse on my arms and limbs, although it was in spots all over my body, also on my scalp. If I let the scales remain too long without removing by bath or otherwise, the skin would crack and bleed. I suffered intense itching, worse at nights after getting warm in bed,'or blood warm by exercise, when it would be almost unbearable. W. M. Chidester, Hutchinson, Kan., April 20, 1905." Five Million Miners. The number of persons employed in the mines of the world is about 5,000,000, ol whom one-fifth are in Great Britain. Bismarck Hated Monuments. Reinhold Begas, probably the greatest German sculptor* has passed his seventy-fifth birthday. Ten weeks before Bismarck 8 death Begas appeared at Friedrichsruh to get a final impression of Germany's most striking figure before beginning work on the great Bismarck monument voted by the reichstag. When Begas^stated his mission Bismarck replied: "Gott; why do you wish to set me a great monument? Represent me as being on crutcheriii^ FINDS VIRTUE IN OLD CLOTHES. Men's Garments Shaped to the Figure by Age Catch Artist's Eye. To the eye of the artist the garments of the modern man are only tolerable when age has adapted them somewhat to the lines of the figure; to the average artist a new suit of clothes is an abomination. "It Is not only that new clothes are more ugly than old," said a knight of the palette who discussed the question; "to my mind no one can He properly easy or graceful in them. "I never feel that I properly know a man until I have met him wearing an old suit Certainly no man can possibly be his natural self in evening dress. "I have noticed again and again how different the same people are when wearing different clothes. I went, for instance, to a large family gathering some time ago, and for some reason everybody had donned full evening dress. What a difference it made! We were all on terms of intimate friendship, but somehow the clothes brought in ah element of coldness and formality. We all felt It—even , the women, although, of course, the fair sex are not easily per. suaded of the merits of well-worn garments. But no man who has discovered the ease and comfort of them will readily give them up. As for the artistic side of modern.clothes, it only comes when they have mellowed by use!" WELL PEOPLE TOO Living, But Legally Dead. Wilson R. Mawrer, mourned for dead in Marcellus for 20 years, after he had suddenly disappeared, and legally declared so in the probate court, when his mother's estate was settled the past, summer, has come back to life through his arrest at Mishawaka, Ind. His mother died last spring, and when the estate, consisting of a few hundred dollars, was brought Into court to be settled, every effort was made to find Mawrer, the only missing heir. His arrest in Indiana was caused, it is alleged, by making love to women, winning their confidence and then leaving with their money. He was a young man when he left there and little is known of his career. George Studebaker, aged 16, of Muskegon, has been missing for a month. His mother h w asSe<l the Detroit pa lice to try to locate him. / Wit* Doctor Gives Postum to Convalescents. A wise doctor tries to give nature its best chance by saving the little strength of the already exhausted patient, and building up wasted energy with simple but powerful nourishment. "Five years ago," writes a doctor, "I commenced to use Postum in my own family Instead of coffee. I was so well pleased with the results that I had two grocers place it in stock, guaranteeing its sale. "I then commenced to recommend it to my patients in place of coffee, as a nutritious beverage. The consequence is, every store in town is now selling it, as it has become a household necessity in many homes. "I'm sure I prescribe Postum as often as any one remedy in the Materia Medlca—in almost every case of indigestion and nervousness I treat, and with the best results. "When I once introduce it Into a family, it is quite sure to remara. I shall continue to use it and prescribe it in families where I practice. "In convalescence from pneumonia, typhoid fever and other cases, I give it as a liquid, easily absorbed diet. Ton may use my letter as a reference any way you tee fit."

Worker* In China Sand Out an Appeal to Mission Societies. The following letter has recently been swat to the members of the foreign mission boards and societies in all Christian lands, aad Is signed by 22 missionaries of various boards with missionaries In Shanghai: "Students are the awat influential class la China, and heretofore they have been also the most ^conservative. There Is no better index of the change which has come over the empire than the recent remarkable exodus of the 8,620 Chinese students to Japan. Probably there has not been la the history of the wcartd any such migration of students from one country to another in an equally brief period. These students are from all parts of tfceampire, and belong to the educated and official classes. They are bound in the fa.ture to influence mightily every missionary Interest throughout China. "The Btudenta are living in Toldo amidst dangerous conditions, tending both toward extreme radicalism and great immorality. . The good influences which might come from Japan are practically shut off from them, because the Chinese students have but little Japanese or English, while the Japanese do not speak Chinese. "There are in Japan a number of revolutionary Chinese politicians who are filling the minds of the students with fanatical anti-Christian and antiforeign ideas. The students are, therefore, in danger of becoming a real menace to China, and are a serious hindrance to the missionary enter prise; "The general committee of the Young Men's Christian Associations of China, Korea, and Hong-Kong, has determined upon making an effort in their behalf. The Shanghai Missionary Association appointed a committee to call the attention of the boards of missions throughout the world to this great need, and to ask their hearty cooperation with the Young Men's Christian Associations in this enterprise. The recent cooperation of the missionaries with the Japanese troops in Manchuria affords a valuable example as to the results of such cooperation." . Contributions may be sent to the honorary treasurer, Rev. A. J. Walker, Shanghai; or to the national committee of the Young Men's Christian Associations of England and America. 90,000,000 BUSHELS THAT'S THE WHEA1 CROP IN WESTERN CANADA THIS YEAR ThU with nearly 80,- — — 000,000 bushels of oats I'M* MT M•€ K9tt0 0b4n sthimelae so ffo r btaher lefya rmmeera*n to fa W cotant-- _ „ crop*, low ta*ea, healthy churches and schools, splendid taeid,~ f„ret _to -a yeGnro; wsenttmlerea wt 0ilU?«sf« 1s«o0 ds earbelse otfo •taAnsW pii;c ew •aitdh* t Ihnef oHrommitelostieia md aRye f"buet aotbiotanisn. ed fre* W.O Dtt.<aw tae,s tCs aAnaodpatr;tonrt enfrdoemnt aouft hIomrimsedt- ,T Gheoavterren mBeknrtt .Abgeetraotsl-tM, M. yk. hMii«cl«sm .; aoar, ir. tacit Stt, Mark, aifcMgnn. flam w.

The big business of bringing the kingdom closer to the world is evoking various forms of present-day Christian activity. The latest of these Is a first-hand study of foreign mission work, all around the world, in behalf of a syndicate of daily newspapers in the United States and Canada, by Mr. William T. Ellis, one of the editors of the Philadelphia Press. Mr.. Ellis goes as a trained investigator, with the avowed purpose of telling, in popular form, exactly what he finds. Just what foreign missions are doing or failing to do, how they work and in what conditions, and the sort of men and women who represent the American churches abroad, will be reported with the utmost frankness by Mr. Ellis. His tour, which began at San Francisco, June 13, will include Hawaii, Japan, Korea, China, Philippines, Ceylon, Burma, India, Egypt, Persia, Syria, and the Holy Land, Turkey and Europe. Nine months will be consumed in the journey. Mr. Ellis is not sent by any missionary body, but goes independently on a strictly journalistic mission. Whatever of a religious nature is likely to interest the American public comes properly within the field of his survey. The various missionary boards and International religious organizations have expressed a cordial Interest in this project, and a desire to cooperate with it.

How\end#ly their health should be preserved, , riot by constant medication, but by careful avoidance of every medicine of an injuri-' ous or objectionable nature, and if at anytime a remedial agent is required, to assist nature, only these of known excellence should be used; remedies which are pure • and wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, like the pleasant laxative remedy, Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. Syrup of Figs has come into general favor in many millions of well informed families, whose estimate of its quality and excellence is base*} upon personal knowledge and use. Syrup of Figs has also met with the approval of physicians generally, because they know it is wholesome, simple and gentle in its action. We inform all reputable physicians as to the medicinal principles of Syrup of Figs, obtained, by.an original method, from certain plants known to them to act most beneficially and presented in an agreeable syrup in which the wholesome Californian blue figs are used to promote the pleasant taste; therefore it is not a secret remedy and hence. we are free to refer to all well informed physicians, who do not approve of patent medicines and never favor indiscriminate self-medication. Please to remember and teach your children also that the genuine Syrup of Figs always has the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.—plainly printed on the front of every package and that it is for sale in bottles of one size only. If any dealer offers any other than the regular Fifty cent size, or having printed thereon the name of any other company, do not accept it. If you fail to get the genuine you will not get its beneficial effects. Every family should always have a bottle on hand, as It is equally beneficial for the parents and the* children, whenever a laxative remedy is required. • e e 1 riA V r \ i Business Pointers.

As I did so I was knocked senseless by more lead striking my skull. When I regained consciousness I was In the center of a battlefield. I have been exposed to shot and shell coming from one direction, but this was the only time in my life I was obliged to endure a hot fire coming from two opposite points of the compass. I could not risq to run away If I would, and had I risen I would not have bettered my condition. In the one ease I would have been shot down at once; in the other I must take the risk of some missile either striking the ground where I lay or bursting near me. Round shot coming from one direction passed near above me, shells burst beside me, while the air was alive with the songs of bullets, sweetly terrible. Something fell on my chest and rolled off on to the ground. I grasped It. It was a lump of half melted lead. Two bullet's had met above me and been fused by the Impact. The din of Incessant thunder, shrieking Iron missies, yells, groans, can only be described by one w o r d - hell. The fire instead of lessening grew fiercer. I must do something to get out of It or be killed sooner or later, since no one could live long in such a tempest. I raised myself on my elbow to look about me. On my right was a • line of bushes. They indicated a water course. If I could drag myself there and find it what I supposed, I might get down into the water, where I would be comparatively safe. The ieslred line was several hundred yards away. Nevertheless I determined to make the effort. I was obliged to pulU-w'ithsKiy arms and push with one leg. The w&unded hip seemed u Ioa$ of stone \ h a t 1 was oblige.iXodrag with me, to\say nothing of/the excru lng with the slightest movem While I was working through c" and wounded—always it seemed in my way—I was .stunned by an'explosion not ten feet above me, and for a moment half conscious I supposed the end had oome. It was a bursting shell. Had it exploded Just before it reached me I should have undoubtedly been hit by its fragments. Bursting directly over me, its motion carried them beyond me. I heard the thunder of horses' hoofs and knew that it denoted a cavalry charge. The sound was far to my right and to my left. I looked and saw them coming. They would pass over me. I would be crushed. They were not in column fortunately, but in line. On they came like a troop of fiends, here and there a man falling from the saddle, a horse rearing and plunging forward or dropping dead in his tracks. I saw the Confederate gray, but It made no difference to me whether they were friends or foes. Their mad ride had nothing to do with mercy; it was to destroy. A lieutenant was riding directly for me. With an effort almost superhuman I raised myself. He saw me, but only In time to Jump his horse over me. Of the first file behind him two men saw hjs horse Jump and, suspecting some pitfall, passed on either side of me. In the second file, a loose line, one horse Jumped me; no other came within a dozen feet of me. Like a storm rack they had suddenly loomed; like a hurricane they had passed, and as u receding tempest will draw the wind in Us tralj they drew the fire. For a time, relieved of the danger of 'lead and i o n , I lay exhausted. Hero uod there t a m e a groan from those who had fallen while the cavalry was\passlug; then the tire grew hot again, and J dragged myself on. It was that last hundred feet which, came near p r e v a i l lug my reaching the goal. .1 was half au hour doing it. But a t last I got to the bushes and, pulling myself through them, looked o » c stream. The current i• ; . bank I was on, and I saw \AM \'AU water w a s beyond my dep:h. -Seizing a bush, I let myself'down and. buoyed by the water, floated immersed to uiy waist. Oh, the blessed relief from pain caused by that cool current about my wound! In an hour the tiring suddenly ceased. Then 1 bethought myself of getting ou dvy land. I pulied myself part way up by the bush I held when I found 1 It was loosening at the root. If I ; bore my whole -weight\m it, it would give way. 1 was in no condition to | swim and I should drown. I w a s no ' longer between two fires. I was suspended by n frail support over a watery grave.' « I heard a movement above me and looked up. A face—it seemed to beloug to a corpse—appeared over the edge of the bank. It was the face of a wounded Confederate who had dragged himself to. the bank either for the same purpose I had or to quench his burning thirst, or both. Stretching out his ham!, he bent a stronger bush a short distance below me till it was within my grasp. I caught it and after several efforts pulled myself up an to dry land. How long I lay on my back looking up at the heavens.—a few light clouds sailing peacefully as a bird soaring—t don't know. It might have been ten minutes; it might have been an hour. Then, partly recovered from my exertion, I thought of the enemy who had saved me. Turning on my stomach, I : crawled to him. I found him lying on his side—dead. His last act was to save the life of an enemy. F. A. M I T C H E L . ATDITIOHAi, L0OAX. Do not forget that wood you were to bring us laat.winter.

T h e Caaerta Camellia T r e e . i In the days of its glory the palace at Oaserta of the king of Naples had among Its features a so called English garden, made in 1782 by order of Marie Caroline of Austria. It was bright with j flowers and wonderful rape oriental plants and trees, so that it was renowned throughout the world, but the . crown and glory of all consisted in a camellia tree, a plaut then unknown j In Europe. The seeds were collected i as though flakes of gold, and the queen used to give them and cuttings of this j camellia as presents to her friends, I These cuttings were most highly prized. ! and thus it has become a European iflower, so^much so that the exportation of camellias is an extensive iral;: try in central Italy, and in G e r m a n / there are vast tie Ids of them, in its palmy days ihe Caserta plant had oi^l*, branches, the largest of which wa> twelve inches in diameter, the whole being thirty feet high.

The Itird'a Bill W«* Locked. A curious bird tragedy is told about In the London Field/ A man found a yellow ham liter dead in his yard at the foot of a wall. The bird had flown against it with such force as to be stunned. Not only that, but the upper mandible had been bent back, and iu the straightening out the sharp point was driven down through the lower bill and locked, thus dooming the bird to death by starvation. The man sent the head to the Field. A good many similar accidents have been recorded, but it was always a heavier bird, whose weight made the springing of the bill easier. A good many of the birds were found In a starved condition, showing that they died lingering deaths from want of food. Birds that fly against the lighthouses have the skull bones crushed and die Instantly, but others are stunned only. T h e Real T r o u b l e .

The test has been made by placing a piece of ice from the north and a piece of ice formed in the vicinity of New York near a stove together. The former took much longer to melt than the latter.—New York Tribune. A Glimpse of Carlyle. One day Carlyle suddenly stopped at a street crossing and, stooping, picked up something out of the mud, even at the risk of being knocked down and run over by passing vehicles.
