"I did not need It till Sunday," continued Mrs. Knapp. "I have been worried much at the situation of the boy, bi;:- I did not dare go near him. Henry and I decided that his hiding place was not safe. We had talked of moving him a few days before you came. When I found that Henry had disappeared I was anxious to make the trifling*, but I could not, venture to at- L.rnpt. it until the others were out nf town, for I knew I was watched. Theu I was assured from Mother Borton that they did not know where the boy was hidden, and I let the matter rest. Rut a few days ago—on Saturday— ahr sent me word that she though**; they had found the place. Then it t i m e to m * to. send you to LJvermore w ith the other boy—oh, 1 hope no "uarm came to the little fellow," she ovclaimed anxiously. "He's safe in my rooms in charge of Wainwright," I said. "He got backon the morning train, and can be had for the asking." "Oh, I'm so glad," said Mrs. Knapp. "1 was afraid something would happen ,to him, but. I hud to take desperate chances. Well, you see my plan succeeded. They all followed you. Hut when I went to the billing place < the boy was gorie. Henry had moved I him weeks ago, and had died before i he could tell me. Then 1-thought yon' might know more than you hud told me—that. Henry Wilton might have get yon to help him when he 'marie tlm ' change*, a/jd I wrote to you." j "And the key," I said, remembering ) the Pttpresslot* of t h r note. "JJid you | mean,.pM* diagram?"; . .«,• ,' "No, "sAld. Mrs. Knapp, "1 meant'.the key iu our cipher code. I was looking over Henry's letters for some hint of a hiding >>**&'€ u n ? could not ttnd the Way lu ibff; cipher. \ I thought yuu nilgai aavtf been felfua one. 1 found mine this afternoon, though, and there WHS no uttttl o{ it, au ii didn't m a n o r ' after all." ,,- . . .,,, The pitching ami totting or the boat had ceased. Aud, a minute later, with clang of bells and groan of eugiue we were at the wharf and were helped ashore. "Tell the captain to wait here lor ua wjth fire* up," wild Mrs. Knapp. "The ; carrlage should be somewhere ar/juud here," she continued, peering anxiously about as we reached the foot of the wharf. "This way," said a familiar voice, and a man stepped from the shadow. "Dicky Nahl!" I exclaimed. "Mr. WHtuu!" mimicked Dicky, "But It's just as well not to speak so loud. Here you are. I put the hack's lights out just to escape unpleasaut remark. ' Mrs. Kuapp entered the carriage and called to w e to follow her. I remembered Mother Burton's warn lugs and my doubts of Dicky Nahl. "You're certain you k&ow where you are going?" 1 asked him in an uudertone. "No, I'm not," said Dicky frankly. "I've fouud a man who says he kuows. We ar« to meet him. We'll get there between 3 and 4 o'clock. He won't say another word to anybody but her or you. 1 guess he knows what he is about." "Well, keep your eyes open. Meeker's gang is ahead of us. Is the driver reliable;" "Right as a judge," said Dicky cheerfully. "Now, if you'll get in with ruadame we won't be wasting time here." I stepped into the carriage. Dicky Nahl closed the door softly and climbed on the seat by the driver, and in a moment we were rolling up Broadway in the gloomy stillness of the early morning hour. CHAPTER X X I X . The Heart of the Mystery. I was in tlie shadow of the mystery. A hundred questions rose to my lips; but behind them all frowned the grim wolf-visage of Doddridge Knapp, and I could not find'the courage that could make me speak to them. "Mrs. Knapp," 1 said, '[you have called me by my name. I had^almost forgotten that I had ever borne it. I have lived more in the last month than In the 25 years that I remember before it, and 1 have almost come to think that the old name belongs to some one else. May I ask how you got hold of it?" "It. was simple enough. Henry had told me about you. i remembered that you were coming from the same town he had come from. 1 telegraphed to an agent in Boston. He went up to your place, made his Inquiries and telegraphed me, 1 suppose you will be pleased to know," she. continued with a droll affection of malice in her voice, "that, he mailed mo your full history as gathered from the town pn#np. It is at the house now." "1 tried to get something out of concerning you," conpp, "I even went so far as to see her once." "I don't think you got any more out of her than she wanted to tell." "Indeed I did not. I was afraid Mr. Richmond had not gone about, it. the ri#fht. way. You know Mr. Richmond aeted as my agent with h e r ? " "No, I didn't know. She was as close-mouthed with me as with you, I think." "Well, I saw her. 1 wanted to get what Information she had of you and of Henry." "She had a good deal of it, If she wanted to give it tip." "So I suppose. But she was too clever for me. She spoke well of you, but not a word could I get from her about Henry. Yet she gave me the idea that she knew much." "I should think she might. I had told her the whole story." "She is used to keeping secrets, I suppose," replied Mrs. Knapp. "But I must reward her well for what she has done." "She is beyond fear or reward." "Dead?" cried Mrs. Knapp In a shocked voice. "And how?" "She died, I fear, because she befriended me." And then I told her the story of Mother Borton's end. "Poor creature!" said Mrs. Knapp sadly. "Yet perhaps it is better so. She has died in doing a good act." The carriage had been rolling along swiftly. Despite the rain the streets were smooth and hard, and we made rapid progress. We had crossed a bridge, and with many turns made a course toward the southeast. Now the ground became softer, and progress was i-low. An interminable array of trees lined tlie way on both sides, and to my impatient imagination .stretched for miles before us. Then the road became better, the horses trotted briskly forward again, their hoofs patlevin* dully on the soi\'e:iod ground. "All the "better." I thought. "It's as good as a muffler ii any one 1? listening for us." Mother Jterton c tinued Mrs. Knai "Here's the place," came the voice of Dicky, giving direction to the driver; and the carriage slackened pate and stopped, ljooklng out i saw that we were at a division uf the road wnere a. i w u - ^ 1 7 itoiLpo fuixxl both of the branching ways. "You'd better come out," said Dicky at the door, u.ddie«u»lus his remark to an*, "'lie niiK to meet mt here." "Be careful," cautioned Mrs. Knapp. 1 kept my hand on Hie revolver thai lay in my overcoat pocket, and walked wlta Dicky on to the porch It was a common roadside saloon, and at this hour it appeared wholly desorted, liven the dog, without which I knew uo roadside saloon could exist, was as silent as its owners. "Here's ?. go!" said Dicky. "He was to meet us, sure. What lime have you sot?" 1 struck a match in a corner and looked at my watch by its Hare. "Five minutes to three," "Whew!" he whispered, "we're regularly done. I thought he had a bad eye when I was bargaining with him." 1 wondered if Dicky had a hand in the trick, if trick it should prove to be. "Well," said Dicky dubiously, "I think I know where the fellow would have taken us. I trailed him this afternoon, and I'll lay two to one that I can pick out the right road." "is this the third road from Brooklyn?" I asked, pointing to the track that led to the left. "I reckon so," said Dicky. "I haven't kept count, but I recollect only two before it." "All right. Up with you t h e n ! " Dicky obediently mounted to the seat beside the driver. "I shall ride outside," I said to Mrs. Knapp. "I may be needed." Half a mile farther we passed a house, and within a quarter Li a mile another. "We are on the right road," was my thought as I compared these in my mind with the crosses on the diagram. ",v ~/CAV <:J^w './:^'-. • :VAX.' 1--'.'.''<;? '.'f.Tf About half a mile farther a small cluster of buildings loomed up, dark and obscure, by the roadside. "This is the place," I said confidently, motioning the driver to pull up. 1 remembered that Henry Wilton's map had stopped at the third cross from the parting of the roads. "No, it isn't," said Dicky eagerly. "It's two or three miles farther on. I trailed the fellow myself to the next house, and that's a good two miles at least." I had leaped to the ground, and opened the door of the carriage. "We are at the fourth place," I said. "And the cockeyed barn?" inquired Mrs. Knapp, peering out. I was struck silent, by this, and looked blankly at the dark forbidding structure that fronted on the road. "You're right," said Mrs. Knapp with a laugh. "Can't you make out that funny little window at the end there?" I looked more closely at the building. In the dim light of the stars the coat, of whitewash that covered it made it possible to trace the outlines of a window in the gable that fronted the road. Some freak of the builder had turned it a quarter of the way around, giving it a comical suggestion of a man with a droop to his eye. "And the iron cow?" I asked. "Stupid! a pump, of course," replied Mrs. Knapp, with another laugh. "Now see if there is a lane here by the barn." A narrow roadway lust, wide enough for a single wagon joined the main road at the corner of the building. "Then drive up it quietly," was Mrs. Knapp's direction. .lust beyond the barn I made out the figure of the pump in a conspicuous place by the roadside and felt more confident that we were on the right road. The driver swore in an undertone as the hack lurched and groaned it; a boggy series of ruts, arid a branch whipped him in the face. I was forced to give a grunt myself, as another slapped my sore arm and sent a sharp twinge of pain shooting from the wound till it. tingled In my toes. Diek\, protected between us, chuckled softly. 1 reflected savagely that nothing spoilt a man 50/ Tjampany ilk* *.'mistaken sen'se of bMmof.- Suddenly the ' horses stopped uo shpjt "tllWi we Wfrlte jflmoBt pitched out.

"Well, then, " she replied, "when we get through, take the r«>a«l ro the left. That will bring us to (lie house." ' You are certain ?" "ThaL u? what Henry wrote in the cipher beneath the map. The house must be only a few hundred yards away." The bars were there, and 1 lifted the wet and soggy boards with an anxious heart. Were- we, after all, so near the hiding- place? Aud what were we to find? On a sudden turn Hie house loomed up before us and a wild clamor of dogs broke the stillness of the night. »'I hope they are tieti," I said, with a 1 oor attempt to conceal my misgivings. "Wrell have a lively time iu a quarter of a minute if they aren't," laughed Dicky, as he followed me. But the baying and barking came no rearer, and I helped Mrs. Kuapp out of the carriage. She looked at the houso closely. "This la the place," she said, in an unmistakable tone of decision. "We must be quitrk. I wish something would quiet those dogs; they will bring the whole country out." It seemed an hour before we could raise any one, but it may not have been three minutes before a voice came from behind the door. "Who's there?" "It is L. M. K.," said Mrs. Knapp; then she added three words of gibberish that I took to be the passwords used to identify the friends of the boy. At the words there was the sound of belts shooting back and the heavy door opened enough to admit MS. As .we passed in, it was closed once more and the bolts shot home. Before us stood a short, heavy-set man, holding a caudle. His face, which was stamped with much of the bulldog look in it. was smooth shaven except for a bristling brown mustache. He looked inquiringly at us. "is he here—the boy?" cried Mrs, Knapp, her voice choked with anxiety." "Yes." said the man. "Do wo move again?" "At once," said Mrs. Knapp, in her tone of decision. "It will take ten minutes to get ready," said the man. "Come this way." I was left standing alone by the door in the darkness, with a burden lifted from my mind. We had come in time. The single slip of paper left by Henry Wilton had been the means, through a strange combination of events, to point the way to the unknown hiding place of the boy. In a tew minutes the wavering light of the candle reappeared. Mrs. Knapp was carrying'a bundle that I took to be the boy, and the man brought a valise and a blanket. "It's all right," said Mrs. Kanpp. "No—1 can carry him—1 want to carry him." The man opened the door, then closed and locked it as I helped Mrs,. Knapp into the carriage. "Have you got him safe"" asked Dicky incredulously. "Well, I'll have to say that you know more than 1 thought you did." And the relief and satisfaction in his tone were so evident that. 1 gladly repented of my suspicions of the light-hearted Dicky. "Have you heard anything?" I asked him anxiously. "I thought I heard a yell over here through the woods. We had better get. out of here." "Don't wait a second," said the man. "The south road come3 over this other way. If you've heard anybody there, they will be here in five minutes. I'll follow you on a horse." With an injunction to haste, 1 stepped after Mrs. Knapp into the carriage, the door was shut, Dicky mounted the seat, and we rolled down the road on the return journey. (TO BE CONTINUKD.)

"Having heard of Grape-Nuts and ' its great, merits, I purchased a package, but with little hope that it would 1 help me—I was so discouraged.

It came in t h e form of7A bwaueut in his will— $1,000 to the prettiest woman in the 'place, theojlidtfra AOL be ehoasu from t h e elderly manl»d flien or the com xn unity. ^ ' T h e hubbub was instantaneous, and of a nature to warm the heart of a cynic. Mothers sp*jke*ts»i$putjly of the charuiu of their daughter*. The mini s t e r s prepared sermqpj|, against the • i n of vanity thus taa~gra.ntly encoura g e d by the late Mr. Senna. The "beat people" signalized their Intention of •binding aloof from the contest. But a t last a reaction set in, started by someone's saving aenbe of humor, .and I t was almost unanimously decided t h a t the terms of the will must be complied with. An appointed committ e e fixed upon a day in June for the assembling of tho contestants. They w e r e to come in their best apparel, a n d t o abide by the vote of the judges "without murmurlnga or dlaputlnga." T h e content js/as^to b e .held out ot doors, in the sunny garden of one of" t h e xranflees of 'the town, that ths searching, light of day might add to1 t h e nrdpartislrty of the decision. The>* affair was thus turned into a lawri1 party, and, the first families agreeing t o be present, the rest of the town followed suit. A week before the day appointed, Richard Gordon; a young' lawyer-, went to call upon Mary Ltennett, whose father before his invalidism Had been a professor in tljje college town from Which Qorjiap's * famfly also came. Richard, waiting for Mary in tlje dim parlor/, with i1ts: steel1 engravings of famous pictures, felt that the girl's Iff** was somehow like them? beautiful In line and form, but lacking the color that selfishness, rather than selfdenial, seems to impart to human ex- \ Jslence. She had always sacrificed herself to the demands and needs of others, until she was like a white flower brought out of the sunshine to cheer a sick-room. -lie was absorbed ift his thoughts *of her when she entered, a welcome glowing in her eyes. Though she was tall and straight and wholesome <o look upon, no one had ever called her pretty. Her chief asset was her abundant dark hair. Richard had never thought of her being in the contest, so he did not even apologize when, after a few moments' conversation, he showed her a list he had made of I he women who, in his opinion, had t h e best chance of winning—a list from which her name was omitted. "1 see that you have headed it. with Itartha Klendenning. That is easy to understand." "Bur my grounds are different from most people's," he said, with the earnestness that he always brought to any subject which interested him. "\ifi blue eyes and yellow hair and story book complexion count very little. It's her lovely figure and her charm of manner—her more subtle advantages, so to speak—that make h e r what she is, .graceful and worn anly " "I quite agree with you. Who is next on the list?" "Kstherine More—it's the curve of h e r upper lip," he added, confidentially. 1 "And next?" "•Dora." "Because—?" ^He laughed. "It has something to do with the t i p of her nose." "f quite understand. Dora's nose •o-Hl keep her young when she's 50." "And then come the ladies who "have only to put on a pink ribbon to he called pretty. You see my scorn • f them places them last." "Poor things! Well, I think it will b e Bertha. You must tell me all about It afterwards!" "But, my dear, you're surely going!" h e said, earnestly, knttting his boyish brows. "I can't unless father Is better." "Oh, you must—it will amuse you so! I'll call for you to make sure!" "Well! T don't forbid your calling!" s h e answered, with a smile. She spent a troubled week, trying to come to terms with herself, in her dark moments she had perversely wished to make herself look as plain as possible, taking a kind of pride in beiijg utterly out of the running; but with the first, dawn of gentler feeling c a m e the desire to look her best, and to entfr into the spirit of the occasion. So when the time came she curled h e r , h a i r and arranged it with all the a r t t h a t she could command. She put o n A soft, white summer gown* and a picture hat With roses. She was her long gloves He seemed in ri-t when the drawing on Richard a highest spirits "1 was prepared to use f^orce, if I foupd y ° u backing out. I have some newd to tell you about myself- something that's made me very glad, atfd I want you io be glad with me." Her heart aaqk. Was he going to tell her of his engagement to Bertha? She turned a pale face to him. "Can't you guess, Mary?" But she was dumb. He leaned towards her and took both her hands in his. "I've got the position 1 wanted in the office with Jenkins & Bart—and it's a kind of partnership, Mary. It's easily worth five thousand a year." She drew a long breath of relief and looked at him with shining eyes. "I'm so glad—so glad!" "You can't be so glad as I, because, my dear—" he hesitated. Her sudden little flame of joy again sank. "You see I didn't want to speak until I was sure—" Even then she would not believe. She had turned her head away. Was it->JBfjrtfe»—oh, was It Bertha? "You see I've loved you always— why Mary—!" Then she turned a rapturous face toward him. How they reached the appointed place she never knew. She walked on air, surrounded by a ring of geld that inclosed one other .person. Her eyes "I and knew it when too late. Oaly those hopelessly out of the running seemed to be juully cujoying them- It was expected that the judges would D O t remain out long, but a halt hour went by, and they were still debatliyj In th>> little summer house to which they hud withdrawn. A feel lug of uneasiness oetiau to make ituell apparent, Be>t» were canceled, and re* arranged again. No one seemed as confident as ax the opening of the contest. At last.the judges were aeea to rise, and then, two by two, they came across the lawn, aud took their, places ou a flower decked platform. A sudden hush fell over the assembly. The chairman waited until everyone had cume within hearing distance o' the stand before making his announcement, then, after reading the clause in the will, he satd: ;;, "The'dlflBWs]U<rt4iUhe way of a fair decision caiHmiftlry. he, appreciated hy those not members of the conjmittee. In the making of it, in the Judging and weighings we crave your clemency. Having made it w,« are sure of your enthusiastic support. The prize has been awarded to Miss.Mary-Bennett." There was a confused murmur. Richard, more surprised than anyone, turned to look at Mary. It was true! It might be gone to-morrow, but today her radiant joy made her the most beautiful woman there. She seemed all light and color aud happiness, and they had felt it and recorded it. She would not believe it at flisi, and wanted to hurry away, but they detained her and showered congratulations ou her until she was glowing like a rose. Each moment enriched her, adding weight to the decision. "You were a dark horse," said a friend, at once puzzled and convinced. "Cupid was jockey," said Richard.

"Just slap down a sketch oC a drunken husband sitting in a wretched hovel of a home," requested the newspaper editor, hurrying into the apartment of the lazy cartoonist. The artist carelessly complied and sprawled back in his chair. "Don't you think it would till out better if you were, to sketch in a table and an empty whisky bottle?" inquired the editor, gazing intently at the hare figure. "Oh, the veaders'll imagine the booze part of it all right." Well, how about adding a brokenhearted wife and a couple of ragged ehiWwHi?."- •• -•• - -• " Unnecessary.

Richard, excited and umphant, looked at her adoringly, seeing in her at once the woman of his future and the playmate of his childhood. They would show themselves at the contest for a minute, just to be public-spirited. Then they would go for a heavenly ramble in the woods. The Judges had decided 1O make the award after mingling informally with their towns-people, so there was no set ceremony, no drawlng-np of the contestants. People strolled about or talked together in groups, as at a garden party. Here and there a girl was seen whose heightened color betrayed her consciousness of being under scrutiny, for it was generally known that the courteous Judges, chatting casually with their friends and acquaintances, were all the while gleaning impressions which would be of service in making the decision. The occasion, on the whole, did not seem favorable to the setting forth of feminine charm. Even Bertha, by becoming self-conscious, had lost something* of her usual grace. Katherine's pretty how of a mouth showed a dispositionto straighten, and Dora's infantile nose failed to save tiie day for her. As for the young women whose charm de pended on pink ribbons, they had all apparently chosen the wrong colors. Tw«*ty Letters in His Name. Savaspana#iotopuvoh)—the name of a Chicago business man—was enrolled ou the city comptroller's records recently. The ownwr of the surname with 20 letters has a billiard room, and the name was disclosed when he called to pay $11.75 tor in specting the electric light wires in his place. No given name was asked for, Savaspanaglotopuvois was considered sufficient to distinguish him from any of the other 2.000,000 citizens of Chicago. It took nearly the width of an entire page in the ledger when written in an accountant's flowing hand. "The cost of collecting the city's licenses would be considerably increased if there were many names like that," declared an official.

The swordsmen of the sea are the eawlisher, speartishes, sailfishes, sword Ashes and the narwhal, with ita spiral ly twisted straight tusks. The sawfishes inhabit the warmer seas, while the narwhal is a creature of the arctic. The tusk of the narwhal is hollow ueaiiy to the point and is spirally grooved. It uses its tusk as a weapon of defense and to plunge through the ice to breathe, the narwhal being a cetacean. Sometimes when a boat has b«eu caught iu the ice great damage has been inflicted by the luquisitiveness or blundering of this great creature, that sometimes reaches a length of fifteen feet, with a tusk of from six to ten feet in length, As a rule, however, the narwhal uses its tusk for the purpose of killing fish for rood. In the castle of Rosenberg the kings of Denmark have long possessed a magnificent throne made of tusks of this cetacean. These tusks are harder and whiter than irory. ADDITIONAL LOCAL.

Btavern Train Thair Young. Naturalists have placed the beaver a long way down in the list of vertebrates, but it undoubtedly stands next to man in the variety of occupations in which it engages. All cats a r e hunters, while foxes that are not thieves may be included also among t h e Mmrods. All canaries are prima donnas, and monkeys make clever comedians, but it is only the beaver parent that educates its children to take up several trades. In a single colony among them you will find civil and marine engineers, wood choppers, raftsmen, laborers, quarrymen, miners, plasterers, masons, carpenters, hodcarriers and fishermen. All beavers take contracts for building dams, but when the work Is undertaken the task is so divided that each member of the colony has its own particular work to look'after. In this way they make some wonderful excavations and construct their dams in an Incredibly short time. reported him. He knew all the train hands well and was sure there was not one ot them who would thus injure him. And so for six long miserable mouths he brooded while doomed to see his wife and children hungry, ragged and driven from one house to another till they landed in n rookery.

Drain Commission. Venice Too Wet For Her. A woman who recently returned from a trip to Europe says wet weather hasn't bothered 1 his country nt all In comparison with what she saw abroad. She says that they ran into a town named Venire where the water covered every street, and you couldn't gel any where except in boats. She added: '•You bet we only stayed one Much has been said the past few weeks about people holding office in this county lor several years having reference especially to the above office. In view of this fact the Tidings contained this in its Mondays edition: "In the light of a cry certain politicians are setting u p it might be well to remember that the oldest om\:e holder in point of service in this nounty, is the court house janitor, Frank Mealio, a Democrat.

" I haven't any ticket," the woman wailed. "My husband has just | died and left me without money. I'm going to the poorhouse." [ "Pay your fare or get off," said j Baker resolutely. The woman only responded by tears. Meanwhile passengers sitting near were listening, sympathizing with the poor widow and scowling a t the conductor. "Haven't you a human heart under your ribs?" sneered a man. "VVhat-n-brute!"^llawhed-a woman. These and other remarks derogatory to the flinty conductor were hissed here and there from. the passengers, but they evidently produced no effect upon him. He stood looking at the woman, waiting for her to pay hor fare. At last he made a final demand and, receiving only the usual response of moans, took her child from her and handed him to a trainman. Then he pulled the boll cord. While the train was slowing up Baker stood mute in the aisle, the woman redoubling her moans. Cries of "Coward!" "Dog!" " r i g !

"I had thought a little ah out that Thyself," I confessed. "But we are not yet. out of the woods, I am afraid." "Hark* what's that?" said Mrs. Knapp. apprehensively. • The carriage was now making Its way through the bad stretch in, the lane, and there was little noise in its progress. "I heard nothing," I said, putting down the window to listen, "What was it?" "I thought it was a shout." There was no noise but the steady splash of horses' hoofs in the mud and the sloppy, shearing sound of the wheels as they cut through tho wet soil. As we bumped and groaned again through the ruts, however, there arose in the distance behind us the flerc** barking of the dogs, their voice* in anger and alarm. There was a faint halloo, and a wilder harking followed. Then my car caught the splashing of galloping hoots behind, and in a moment, the man of the house rode beside us. "They've come," he said, "or, anyhow, somebody's come. 1 let the dog a loose and they will have a lively time for a while." A few yards more brought n< to the main road, and once on the firm ground the hortes trotted brtak!> "for- >ward. while the horseman dropped bo- - — • : — « * - r *"• • > •'"•"•" • •• •"•-.—• , • . < . J .

Then 1 thought 4 tyeard yells and,taint hoofbeats In the distance, but again there was silence except for the muffled noised we made in our progress. "Gn't we drive faster?" asked Mes. Knapp, when 1 made my report. "I wouldn't apoil these hor*es tor $500," growled the driver when I passed him the injunction to hasten. "It's $1,000 for yon if you get td the wharf ahead of the others," cried Mrs. Knapp. "And you'll have a bullet In your hide if you don't keep out of gunshot of them," I added. The double inducement to haste had Us effect, and we could feel the swifter motion of the vehicle under us, and see the more rapid passage of the trees and fences that lined the way. The wild ride appeared to last for ages. The fast trot of the horses was a funeral pace to the flight of my excited and anxious Imagination. What if we should be overtaken? At last the houses began to pass more frequently. Now the road was broken by cross streets. Gat lamps appeared, flicking faint and yellow in the mprning air. . We were once more within city limits. The panting horse* never slackened pace. We swept over a long bridge, and plunged down a shaded street, and the figure of the horseman was the only sign of life behind us. Of a sudden there sounded a long roll, as of a great drum beating the reveille for an army of giants. The horseman quickened his pace and galloped furiously beside us. "They're crossing the bridge," he shouted. "Whip up!" I cried to the driver. "They are only four blocks behind us.'" The hack swung around a few corners, and then baited. "Here we are!" cried Dicky Dahl at the door. "You get aboard the tug and push off, Jake and I will run up to the foot of the wharf. If they come, we can keep 'em off long enough for you to get aboard." The tug was where it lay when we left, and a,t m,y hall the captain and his crew of three were astir. It was a moment's work to get Mrs. Knapp and her charge aboard. "Come on!" I crlod to Dicky and his companion. And as the lines were cast off they made a running jump on to the deck of the tugboat and the vessel backed out into the stream. When the mist and darkness had blotted out shore, wharves and shipping, the tug moved at half-speed down the channel. I persuaded the captain that there was no need to sound the whistle, but he declined gruffly to increase his speed. "I might as well be shot as run my boat ashore," he growled, with a few seaman I ike adjectives. I did not know of any particular reason for arguing the question, so I joined Mrs. Knapp. "Thank God, we are safe!" she said, with a sigh of relief. "We shall be in tho city in half an hour, if thai is safely," I said. "It will he safety for a few days. Then we can devise a new plan. I havo a strong arm to loan on again." Returning to the deck I found that the light of the morning was growing. Vessels were moving. The whistles of the ferry boats, as they gave warning of their way through the mist. roRe shrill on the air. The waters were still, a faint ripple showing in strange contrast to the scene of last night. "There's a steamer behind us." said Dicky Dahl, with a worried look as I joined him. "I've been listening to it for five minutes." "It's a tug," said the captain. "She Was lying on the other side of the wharf last night." "Good heavens!" 1 cried. "Put on full steam, then, or we shall be run down In the bay. It's the gang we are trying to get away from." The captain looked at -me suspiciously for a moment, and was inclined to re*ant ,a>y interference. The* he shrugged his shoulders as though it was none of his business whether we were lunatics or not so long as we paid for the privilege, and rang the engine bell for full speed ahead We had just come out of the Oakland Creek channel and the mist suddenly thinned before us. It left the bay and the city fair and wholesome in the gray light, as though the storm had washed the grime and foulness from air and earth and renewed the freshness of life. We had come hut a few hundred yards into the clear air when out of the mist bmk behind ns shot another tug. At tho exclamation that broke from us cur captain for the first i imo showed interest in the speed of his bi~«a t and whistled angrily down to his en< ginger. "We can heat her," he said, with a contemptuous accent on the "her." "That's your business.'' I returned, and walked aft to where Mrs. Knapp was standing, halfway up the steps from the cabin. "Cau they catch xmT mqvirsd Mrs. Knapr Ihe lin?s tightening about her' moath. "I think n*t—-the capL-.io. says not. I should say that we were holding uur own now." Av this moment a t*U. maaaire fl*r\ ure stepped from, the pilot house of the pursuing tug and shook its gsts at as. The huge built, the woif-faee, ju*l distinguishable, distorted, dark with; rape and passion, stopped the blood and I felt a falntness as of dropping from a beigbt. "Doddridge Knapp!" 1 cried. Mm. Knapp looked at me in* alarm a a l grasped the rail. "No! no!" she exclaimed. "A thousand times no! That is EM jab Lane!" I gaged at her in wonder. Not Doddridge Knapp! Had my eyes played me Lilse? "Do you not understand?" she said in a low, intense tone. "He ia Klijab Lane, the father of the boy. An evil, wicked man—mad—^-truIy mad. He would kill the boy. He killed the mother of the boy. I know, hut it is not a case for proof—not a case that the law can touch.' Aud he bates the boy—and me!" "But wny does he want to kill him?" "You do not understand. The boy inherits a great fortune from his mother. Mr. Knapp and I are left trustee* by the mother's will. If he had control of the boy, the boy would die; but it would be from cruelty, disease, neglect. It would not be murder in the eye of the .law. But I know what would happen. Ob, see the wretch! How he hates me!" I was stunned with the words I had heard. They made much plain that had puzzled me, yet' they- left much more in darkness; and I looked blankly at the figure on the other tug. It was truly a strange sight. The man was beside himself with rage, shouting, gesticulating and leaping about the deck in transports of passion. He showed every mark of a maniac. Suddenly he drew a revolver and sent shot after shot in our direction. We were far beyond the reach of a pistol bullet, but Mrs. Knapp screamed aud dodged. "How he "hates me!" she cried again. When ihe last shot was gone from his revolver the man flung the weapon in frenzy, as though he could hope to strike us thus. Then a strange thing happened, whether due to the effort he had made in the throw, or to a lurch nf the tug in the waves we left, behind us, or to a stumble over some obstruction, I could not. say. Hut we saw the man suddenly pitch forward over the low bulwarks of the tug into the waters of the bay. Mrs. Knapp gave a scream and covered her eyes. "Stop the boat!" I shouted. "Back her!" The other t.ng had checked its headway at the same time, and there was a line of six or seven men along its side. 'There he is!" cried one. The captain laid our tug across the tidal stream that swept ns strongly toward Goat Island. Then he steamed slowly toward the other tug. "He's gone," said Dicky. The ether tug seemed anxious to keep away from us, as in distrust of our good intentions. I scanned the waters carefully, but the drowning man had gone down. Then, rising not 20 feet away, floating fo'. a moment on the surface of the water. I saw plainly for the first time, the very caricature of the face of Doddridge Knapp. The strong* wolfleatures which in the King of the Street were eloquent of power, intellect and sagacity, were here marked with the record of passion, hatred and evil Mfe. T marveled now that I had ever t-need a likeness between them. 'G've mo that hook"' I cried, leaning over the side or" the tug. "Go ah fid a little." On-"* of the m m threw a rope. It passed too far, and drifted swiftly behind. I :n"i.'e a wild reach with the hook, but it n.:s too short. Just as I thought I iTitmiV, succeed, the face gave a convulsive twitch, as iT in a parting outburst of bate and wrath, and the body sank out of sight. 1 stocd hatf-bcwildarci, with a bursting senfto.' of^ ^fwfief, *$7 «*!**.

The many-hilled city took on the hues of a fairy picture, and the windows gleamed with the magic fires that were Uayhcu back in greeting to the god of day. it seemed scarcely possible that this was the raging, tossing water we had crossed list uight. And the fiery scene oi passion and death we had just witnessed was so foreign to its calm beav.ties that i could believe it bad happened elsewhere in some dream of long ago. I was roused by the voice of Mrs. Knapp, who sat at the head of the cabin s'3'r* lodkiug absently over the water. "I have not dealt frankly with you," she said. "Perhaps it is better that you should know, as you know so much nli'ady. I feel that I may rely ] on your discretion." "1 think' I can Iceep a secret," I replied, concealing my curiosity. ..'/I should not tell you if I did not have full confidence." Then she was silent for a minute.

PRESCRIBED CUTICURA ICE HAD PRESERVED M A M M O T H . Remarkable Discovery Made in Froztn Siberian Bog. After Other Treatment Failed—Raw Eczema on Baby's Face Had Lasted Three Months—At Last Doctor Found Cure. Sixty-one years ago a young Russian engineer, Benkendorf, saw the River Lena in Siberia release a dead mammoth frozen ages ago in the bog. There had been exceptionally warm weather in the north of Siberia, and the river, swollen by melting snow and ice and torrential warm rains, swept out of its old channel and carved a new one, carrying to the sea vast quantities of its former banks and furrowing up the thawing bogs over which it raced. As he made his way in a steam cutter against the current Benkendorf saw the head of a mammoth appear above the flood. Rush upon rush of water more and more released the body. Its hind legs were still Imbedded when he saw it. but 24 hours liberated these. The mam moth had sunk, feet firs?, into a bof. The ooze had frozen over It; successive tides had heaped soil and vegetation upon it. Bone and flesh and hair were perfect. They secured it; they cut e l its tusks; they dissected it and found in its stomach the last meal it L had eaten, young shoots of the flr and pine and masticated flr cones. They were still at work when the ri^er. spreading farther, engulfed them. The men escaped, but the waters surged over the mammoth and carried It for ; carrion to the sea. "Our baby boy broke out with eczema on his face when one month old. One place on tho side of his face the size of a nickel was raw like beefsteak for three months, and he would cry out when 1 bathed the parts that were sore and broken out. I gave him three months' treatment from a good doctor, but at the end of that time the child was no better. Then my doctor recommended Cuticura. After using a cake of Cuticura Soap, a third of A box of (Cuticura Ointment, and half a bottle of Cuticura Resolvent he was well and his face was as smooth as any baby's. He is now two years and a half old and no eczema has reappeared. Mrs M. L. Harris. Alton, Kan., May 14 and June 12, 1907." Violin as a Hair Resteer. It is now a scientifically proved fact that music exercises a great influence on the growth of the hair. U is with good reason that great musicians, euch as Paganini, Listz and Paderewski. are represented with a growth of hair which Absalom might have envied. Science has proved that stringed instruments have a favorable influence on the growth of the hair, while brass instruments act in the opposite direction. Kvery one has probably observed Miar. a bald violinist is as rar^ as a baid horn player is common. Wood instruments, such as the flute, seem to have no pronounced influence cither way. The Appraiser.

A month later word wus cabled from abroad that she had died suddenly of heart disease while climbing a mountain in Switzerland. He remained for three duys in a stupor, then was about to go abroad, where her 'iiortal part was, when he remembereu .ier farewell words. As soon as t l u cool weather set in an oblong box was received from Switzerland and buried in Avondule cemetery. He was not notified of the burial by her spinster cousin, her only relative,- who gave as a reason that it would be better he should not be prese n t But us soon as he learned of the fact he went to the cemetery and stood uncovered by her grave, tears rolling down his cheeks. He had brought some plants to set out where their flowers the next sprlug would haug over her grave. Some one had been there before him on a similar errand. Flowers were strewn over the mound so fresh that they must have been cut but a few hours. He spoke of these flowers to her cousin and asked if she had placed them. She had not aud seemed surprised. He was troubled. It is singular t h a t we should be jealous In case of the dead. Every Sunday afternoon he went to the cemetery, and every time he found fresh flowers ou the grave. They must have been placed there In the morning. The next Sunday he went at dawn and waited and waited till 10 o'clock for this rival for the dead. At that hour a young girl came and strewed flowers on the grave. A great relief came to him. He advanced and addressed his fellow mourner. She had'bqsn a friend of his former fiancee. Every Sunday morning these two met at the grave of one for whom they had a common love. He grew to look forward to the meeting not so much as a melancholy event as a reunion with one who was filling the void in his heart, a void which, if filled at all, can be done only by a living person. But this girl of llosh and blood was from the first constrained, and her constraint | had grown on her. When they met her eyes would bright on; but, looking down on her friend's grave, she seemed moved by some inward emotion. When winter ctune their visits were omitted by mutual consent till the spring should come. Their meetings were not, as before, on Sunday mornings, but on Sunday afternoons, and were often prolonged until late in the evening. It was plensater to sit by a warm fireplace than stand out in the cold cemetery, where the winds shrieked through the leafless branches. n o besought her to marry him. Site refused. From the expression on her face his words seemed to have had the effect rather of clods falling on a coffin than of a great comfort. When the crocuses wore springing up she proposed that they go again to the cemetery. He sighed and consented, but at the appointed time he made excuses. She said, though with evident reluctance, that she would go alone, j So he went with her. On the way she ! was silent and melancholy. To see her | one would have thought she wnB going to her own funeral. He carried the flowers to the grave, while she stood at the gate of the inclosure. He had strewn them when, looking up, he saw a figure coming, down the roadway. Shading his oy«s with his hand to see more dlstinctlj", hr? staggered back against the iron rail. The woman over whose grave he had i strewn (lowers- his lost love- was j coming. | She advanced with a slow step, a se- ' rlous expression on her face. There I was nothing ghostly nl>out her. On the contrnrv, she was plainlv mortal. ' What astonished her betrothed m o s t , was that her friend appeared in no i way surprised at this return from the > dead to the quick. "This Is a wrong I have done you," ! said the returned one. "and I regret ' it, hut I laid the plan long ago and ps- ! solved that I would carry It out.

Detroit, Mich.—The remarkable spectacle of a presidential candidate i ( bilking the chief executive of the nation for making statements deemed to be unjustified, was witnessed here v.hen William J. Rryan in a letter to President Roosevelt defended Gov. Haskell of Oklahoma, treasurer of the Democratic national committee, against the charge that he had unlawful connections with the Standard Oil -Compsny. Mr. Bryan serves notice on the president that as the candidate of the Democratic party "1 shall not pecmit any responsible member of the Republican organization to misrepresent the Democratic party in the present campaign." Washington.—President Roosevelt, following upon a prolonged conference witft member* of, the cabinet at tjbe White House, prepared and gave out his reply to William J. Bryan, the Democratic candidate, relative to W. R. Hearst's charges'that Gov. Haskell, treasurer of the Democratic campaign committee, had- represented Standard Oil interests both in Ohio and Okia homa. Mr. Bryan had demanded proof of the charges, promising that in the event of their a*fcst*mMation Gov. Haskell wou^s.l%*^ia«^D»f«d, from the c a m p a l f $ < i ^ , , - ^ . Dismta^ng J he.

Haskell's "utter unlith'ess for association with any man anxious to appeal to the American people on a moral issue, has been abundantly shown by other acts of his as governor of Oklahoma." The president condemns Gov. Haskell's conduct in connection with various matters ae disgraceful and scandalous, and calls special attention to what he describes as "prostituting to base purposes the state university." Haskell Makes Reply. Guthrie, Okla.—Gov. C. N, Haskell issued a statement In reply to PresidentRoosevelt's leHer to Wi 1 Ham .1. Bryan, dealing with four specific charges against Mr. Haskell, namely, that h« is subservient to Standard Oil, that he vetoed a child labor bill; that he dealt extensively in Creek Indian lands, and that he had allowed politics lo dominate him in the removal of members of the faculty of the state university and the appointment of others to succeed him. Gov. Haskell took up the four charges as dwelt upon by President Roosevelt in turn, dealing with each in a characteristic manner. Foraker's Hot Reply. Cincinnati.—Senator Foraker prepared a statement which was made puttie Friday, replying to. the recent charges made by William R. Hearst ancT"President. RjjosswlC :In addition he bitterly ass-ails •-Heanft, Taft and the president, charging Tal't. with con- ;sortiag wi|h Slamitrd Oil magnates hirB8e3f Sfco1 declaring that President Roosevelt's actions, in^eate-ft 'guilty conscience. In the opening paragraph Mr. Foraker declared that the president showed bias in accepting as true'all the charges. He denied that he acted improperly in accepting employment from the Standard Oil Company, said that there was no secret about, it and produced letters to prove that after the government, began its attack upon the; Standard Oil, he declined to accept a retainer from them. He charged that Mr. Hearst had other letters in addition to those which he gave out, and that these other leticrs, if made public at the same time, would have shown how harmless was his connection with the Standard people. Hearst Hits Foraker. fe Columbus, O. -Senator J. B. Foraker of Ohio was openly charged here by W. R Hearst with being an agent of ihe Standard Oil Company. Mr. Hearst said that after the oil octopus had been driven from the Republican party by President Roosevelt the Democratic party had welcomed the Standard with open afrr.r> and adopted it. Mr. Hearst read a series of letters from John D. Arcabold, the Standard Oil man, to Setjatfo* 'gbraker. In these communications'.

Foraker was not an attorney of record in any of the Standard Oil cases'tried in the Ohio courts, according to the Associated Press, which conducted an investigation. The first cases were filed in the attorney general's office in 1882 and were carried along through various courts for more than 20 years. According to the records in the attorney general's office, the attorneys of record in 1899 and 1900, the dates of the cases against the Standard and its sub sidiary companies, the attorneys who took part in the legal battles, were M. R. Keith, S. C. T. Dodd and Joseph H. Choate of New York and Virgil P. Kline of Cleveland, O. In a number, of the earlier cases only Keith and Kline were the attorneys of record, but. later on, when t h e fight became the thickest Choate and Dodd entered the case and their services were given to the company untU after the casf was carried to the highest courts. .

AWFUL GRAVEL ATTACKS, , .. £ As a general thing, horsemen prefer to feed old oatd rather than new. This is not only true of oats, but of all kinds of grain as well. The reasdn for this is that new oats, as a rule, are not thoroughly dry, and consequently weigh more than the old grain, so that if they are purchased at the same price per bushel, the purchaser does not receive as much for his money. When fed to horses they are some what laxative in effect, and because of this have more or less ot a serious Influence on working horses. They also have a tendency to cause them to sweat freely. While this is true of oats every season, it is especially true this- year* aa the oata crop matured very rtowly, and even after the-crop was harvested, in many localities it was a very difficult matter to dry it properly. Where the crop has been threshed, the grain was frequently wet or damp, so that in many Instances It never was dry. Some farmers have been forced to use their new oats, on account of not having any old grain left over. But where both old and new oars are had, it is much better to mix and feed them together than to feed the old oats until they are all fed and then feed alto gethor from the new crop. WHAT IS PHOSPHATE? And Why It Is Needed Soils. in Many Phosphorus, or phosphate, r_8 it is commonly called, is one of the most essential elements of fertility. It is especially needed in formfng the seed of all grain. Rock phosphate is composed of the remains of ancient fish, collected in some unknown way ages ago. It is needed on our western soils, because our yield of grain, is constantly growing lighter. We must spend some thought and money to rebuild the elements of fertility ve have been taking' otiMor 60 year*~6r* *mdre, says Hoard's Dairyman. Aa" phosphate comes raw from the rock it is called ^floats" and should be used in manure, where if will be subject to heat and ferment in order t o ' m a k e it yield up its phosphorus to the soil. This difficulty is overcome by treating the rock with sulphuric acid, which free the phosphoric acid at once, the acid phosphate costs more. sets But FARM NOTES.

The stillness of the autumnal morning was gone. Hugles blew, the reveille gun was fired, soldiers turabjed out of barracks, officers dropped their t;a/ds or their. babies.

"Where isi< she? Which is her room?" And as the flames' raged with an ever-increasing ferocity, the waiting crowd of soldiers felt the premonition of death in their hearts.

"Yes," said Mrs. Fletcher. *"What made you think of thutV" "The tool actions of a wuiuun that 1 saw dowutov u today, She followed a man ten blocks just to get to read a placard that was fastened to his back.

He led her quite a chase across town and downtown and. back again, but she never weakened. She tagged faithfully along In his wake, and finally she got close enough to read that notice." Mrs. Fletcher reflected a moment. "What did It say?" she asked. "It advised her to get her teeth pulled somewhere on Sixth avenue." Mrs. Fletcher thought again. "Where were you all the time she was trying to And that out?" "Me?" said Fletcher. "Oh, I was following the woman. I wanted to see If she finally caught up with the man." •—Kew York Timea. The Porcelain 8eoret. The porcelain industry of Germany is comparatively young, says the Berlin Morgen Post, and its development was rapid. Although it is generally believed that the Chinese kept their processes of manufacture secret, Julian's translations of their voluminous encyclopedia show that this is not true. All who conld have read the work might have known also the porcelain secret. But evidently no German fathomed the mechanical mystery until the apothecary's apprentice Boettgar, 200 years ago, made the first German porcelain at Dresden, f^ome years before he had attracted attention by proclaiming the discovery of a method of changing base metal into gold. King Frederick I. gave him orders for the precious metal, which the sixteen -year-old In ventor could not execute, and in fear he fled to Dresden and became a subject of King August the Strong. While endeavoring to make gold he discovered the porcelain secret and Inscribed his door thus: "Into a potter was changed by Almighty God a man who thought he could make gold." A Puzzl* In Figures. Take any number of three different figures, as 471, under it place the same figures~in reverse order, subtract the lesser number and you will find that the middle figure of the result Is invariably 0. Why it Is so is-something that only the most learned mathematical scholars can explain. Here is our case worked out: Taking any number, say 471 Reversing figures 171 Subtracting, we have 297 Further still, we can now reverse this number 297 In the same way and add the two numbers and the result , w i l l always come 1080. Thus: Taking 297 Revcraing 792 Addlnc, we have 1089 Why should the answer always come ont the same? Here's something for 3»n to work over.

[Original.] The first prestidigitator to attract wide attention in America was Slgnor Blitz half a century ago. Blltx was giving exhibitions all over the United States, and since amusements were then by no means as common as today all heard of him If all did not see him. After having exhibited everywhere in the eastern states he decided to go overland to California. Loading bis contrivances in a couple of "prairie schooners," as the plains wagons were called, he set out from the Missouri river to cross the Rocky mountains. One day the little caravan came upon a man who was crazed with distress. He had been traveling with bis wife and two children In a single wagon. For some reason he had left them for a few hours and when he returned found his wagon plundered of its contents, his stock run off and bis wife Mr. Daniels is the popular auctioneer! and children missing.

For the present we wish to call es pecial attention to tbe office of Judge had been carried away by the redskins The next day Indtons were seen at a distance. Blitz told the man, whose name was Rodman, to ride out and tell them a great medicine man traveling across the country would like to give them a display of his powers. Of course to go to the Indians was the next thing to going ta certain death, but Rodman was in hopes* that Blitz might help him to regain his family and took the chances. He learned while among the savages that they held his wife and children captives, though the savages did not know they belonged to him. Tbe marvelous will always interest the superstitious, and the Indians sent Rodman back to invite Blitz to their camp. Blitz improvised a stage with the necessary appurtenances, and the redskins squatted before It. An Interpreter stood ready to repeat the sorcerer's words in their own language. Blitz took a small iron cube with a ring for a handle and lifted it with his little finger. Then he said that he possessed the power of depriving a man of his strength and Invited any savage to come up on to the stage and submit himself to this test. The chief himself, the biggest and strongest Indian present, stepped up, evidently confident that no man could take away what he was so proud of. Blitz asked him to lift the iron weight. He did so, giving a grunt, as much as to say: "Do you make sport of me? Give me something heavy to lift." He set the weight down. Blitz made a few passes along his arm and told him to lift again. This time the Indian failed to move it. He struggled desperately, ail tbe blood in his body getting into his face, but to no purpose. The weight was immovable. Then he turned away muttering and did not stop till he had got behind the awe stricken Indians. The weight was connected by wires wit& a—powerful magnet, the current being turned on or off by a key under Blitz's foot. Blitz next took up u pistol and invited the chief to come back and kill him with it. The chief, in hopes of redeeming himself before his warriors, returned. Blitz offered him a cup with leaden bullets in it and asked him to take out one and mark It so that he j would know it again. The redskin did as he was told. Blirv, took the bullet, put it in the pistol, cocked the weapon, handed it to the Indian, stood off at the other end of the stage and told him The Indian took a sure aim and fired. Blitz put up his hand, caught the bullet in his fingers and tossed it hnok to the man who had ror atrickeij woman aud her children were brought forward and surttmdsfftd to white peopte thsir astonlshtcjmt <mm as great as the savafsa'. at •tttrs/tttdiclae work.

This is a common trick, the bullet put in the pistol being of clay ground up powder by ramming it down. It is substituted for the leaden one by sleight of hand. Then Blitz told the chief he could shoot his blood on to a board without hurting blm and fired a wax bullet at him filled with his own blood. It broke against the board, spattering the blood. By this time Blitz was a wonderful medicine man to the savages and was ready for the business he had conic for. An assistant bandaged his eyes, and Blitz told tbe audience that he saw in one of the tepees a white woman and two children. He ordered them to bring forth their prisoners at once or he would call down fire from the clouds to consume them. The chief called a powwow of his principal warriors. The White men saw them arjjulng and gesticulating, but could not understand what they said. Some were doubtful of Blitz having this power, while others claimed that a medicine man who could do what he had dona conld do anything.

Next to the con t&ryBtiou of national resources, he Ye gttrdv the well-beiiujs of the farmer as fne"Chief problem before the iaUon. Oh the man who gives us the materi a^s for clothes and food the entire ua tion depends. Through him satiety is rooted in the land. Many of the great economic improvements iu late years have been directed to the betterment of farming. The department of agri culture has b*ujn working to. increase the productivity of .the. land,,to iu- •struct fanners In the best met hod a of cultivation. All the development or Irrlgalion, the establishment of rural postal delivery, the improvement of waterways and railroads over which the product of the land is sent to the cities, the good roads movement, the creation'of state agricultural colleges, the regeneration of the district school eastern, have tended to make farming mote prosperous and the farmer healthier and better instructed. But most of this work has dealt to land and tiops and tools and roads; it hatin large measure missed the human being. The president's most inspiring idea, hig;niofit statesman-like motive, is the belief that it is the man that counts. We must help and improve human beings. We must make farm life so attractive that the best strength of the nation will live it. At present the brilliant prises of life seem to lie in the city, and too many capable boys are tempted away from the soil. To bring to the farm the essential comforts and intellectual interests of the cities, to give farm boy and farm £irl every chance for self-improvement, to secure to the farmer his proper share of the profit of his labor, to make life in the country most worth living—this is the problem the solution of which will strengthen the foundations of national prosperity. Measures to be considered by the commission, says the Youth's Commpanlon, are the establisiuent of postal springs banks, the creation of rural parcel post, by which the farmer may more easily get the product's of manufacture, the increase of "co-operation between farmers for buying, selling and borrowing," and the "better adap t.ation of rural schools to the training of children for life on the farm," AUTO COLLIDES W I T H S T R E E T CAR A N D T W O PEOPLE ARE K I L L E D . The last trace of connection be Iween the famow> Kast India Company and the government of Jndia disappeared when Sir Philip Hutchins retired from membership in the council of India on July 31, this year—50 years, within two days, from the date of the passage of the act transferring; control of Fast Indian affairs to the British crown. Sir Philip entered the old company in *8fi7, and was employed in its civil service in Madras. where he continued after the transfer of control. He rose In responsible positions in India until he was called home as secretary of the judicial department of the India office. He was made one of the members of the council of India In 1898, the body which advises the secretary for India in the cabinet, in'his administration of the Indian Empire. All other men who had been employed by the old company had disappeared from the India office, and for the last nine months of his tenure Sir Philip was the sole surviving servant of the old regime. Although its political power ceased in 1858, the East. India Company itself did not go out of existence until 1874 SUPPER PARTY'S SAD END One Woman and One Man Escape Injury, Their Two Companion* Being Crushed Fatally.

The quartet had spent the evening in ah eastern suburb of the city. It was composed of I^vell H. Turnbull, Paul B. Feys, both of Detroit, Mrs. Albert Bemer, Kalamazoo, and Mrs. Emma Emeterio, of New York, who had been visiting Mrs. Bemer. Mrs. Emeterio formerly lived In 'Kalamazoo. Turnbull was driving. Mrs. Emeterio sat beside him. Keys and Mrs. Bemer occupied the rear seat. The big red auto, speeding at about 50 miles an hour, according to witnesses of the accident, was rushing down the south side of Jefferson avenue. Kxca vat ions for the big water main had forced the car to take the left side of the road. At Holeomb avenue the north side was clear again. Turnhull saw the brilliant white lights of an automobile approaching on the south tide, and to give it the right of way swung the machine across the tracks. Wirh a terrific crash the car, which Turnhull, dazzled by the automobile lights, had not seen, smashed into the rushing automobile, striking it just back of the center and hurling it. a shattered heap of debris, to the cur)). People jumped from the car and i ashed"m the fescue of the occupants. A man was pulled from the ruins. He refused Io give his name. "For Cod's sake, call me Fredericks," he pleaded. "Call me anything, only don't lit this reach the ears of my family i! will, break up my home." A few minutes later he had riisap peared. Mrs. Emeterio was also taken front the debris uninjured. The others were not so fortunate. The crushed body of Mrs. Bemer was next extricated. She, had received the full impact of the car, and had been instantly killed. Feys was still living when taken from the tangled mass of wreckage. The East End ambulance hurried him to St. Mary's hospital, where he died three hours later without recovering consciousness. The Glazier Caae. The three hours' examination given Mrs. Emily Glazier, mother of' Frank P, Glazier, in the bankruptcy hearing before Referee Davock in Detroit, was too great a strain on the aged lady. She exhibited sigus of weakness during the morning and at the afternoon session it was said that, she, Was unable to resume the stand for the present. The hearing was adjourned until Friday, when it is expected to resume it in Chelsea, the Glaz'ier home. Mrs. Frank P. Clazier. Miss Vera Clazier and Harold Clazier are also to be examined. The testimony of the mother was to the effect that she had turned over practically nil her share of her iat" husband's estate, to which she ami her son were the only heirs, to the son. and had only the homestead and the interest in a Frank P. Clazier life insurance policy for $,1,000. It is said that the attorneys for the creditors will ask that the axsi^mvieni of this policy to the mother be set aside, that the proceeds may go into the general creditors' fund.

O'Earley had been in Peck Saturday night and during the day had sold sorrrf^ produce, having quite a sum of money with him when he left for his home about 9 o'clock.

His wife,, waa much youuger than h e r - a lovejy girl, and I»er parents were rich. How he got her 14lo not see., It wa* his gift of tbe tongie, I suppose, fpr h e could talk well. She was not happy with him, but vas> better contented when, two years later, her boy came. Last year Mrs. Lane's father died,.and she came in under the will for more than $1,006,- 000 worth of property. Then Mr. Lane changed his habits. He became uojit attentive to^ his wife. He looked to her wants, and appeared to the world as a model husband.1 But more was going on than we Knew. From, the little, she told me, from the h i n t i spJe dropped, she must have looked upon him with dread. She failed rapidly'in health, ,and .six mpnths agp she died." "Murdered?" i asked. ". believe it with all my soul," aaid .Mrs. Knapp. "But there was no evidence?— not a particle. I tried to And It, but it was beyond the power of the tlocl&rs to discover." "Ar.d his motive?" "He bhought lie. was heir to her fo> tune. When he found that she had left it with Mn. Knapp and me, in trust for the boy, his rage was frightful to Hee. Before he had time to put any of his wicked thoughts into action 1 took Hie/boy to my nome, thlfiktng that there I could keep htm in safety. Mr. Knapp pooh-poqhed'my fears, and, when Mr, Lane niade. a .demand for the qhild, w%s in favor of giving him ui. 'The father is' the one to «are lor the boy,' he said, and washed his httntlp of the whole matter." "Then Mr. Knhpp had notliing to do v.ith the affair, one way1 oV the other?" "Oh, no—nothing at all. 1 believe, thQugh, that Henry did use, his name with the police, to. deter them frem interfering with (Mir plaas." u I rettiembered Decvectire -Ooogan'fi words, and kenw that she was correct I:; this supposition. "Mr. Lane," she coptinned, "' threat euei\ legal proceedings. But, knowing hits own past and knowing that I knew something of it, too, he dared not begin them. Mr. Knapp's feelings in the matter had made" me unwilling to keep the boy in my house, but at first 1 thought it the best way of protecting him, and had him with me. I'heh one night the house was hroken into and two men were discovered tn the room where the hoy usually slept. I had taken him to my own bed that night, for he was ailing, and so he escaped. The alarm waa raised before they found him, and the men fled. Mr. Knapp was confident that they were ordinary house-breakers, but I knew better. 1 dared keep the boy there no longer, and called Henry Wilton to assist me in making him safe. He found a suitable house for the boy and hired men to guard it. But after one experience in which the place was attacked and almost carried by storm, Henry thought it, better to hide the boy and watch the enemy. The rest you know." Heaving a sigh «s of veMef.^rtte went on: "Mi. Lane was insane, } am certain. I tried to have Mr. Knapp take steps to lock him up. But Mr. Knapp could not believe that his brother was so wicked as to wish to take the life ot his own child. I think he was fearful of a scandal in which the relationship should become known. But there was a time, a few weeks ago, when I was near spurring Mr. Knapp to action. It was at the time of his trip to Virginia City. Mr. Lane came to the house while I was away and scared the servants into fits with his threats and curses. Luella had the courage and tact to face him and get him out of the house and I telegraphed for Mr. K n a p p " "T remember the occasion, thrugh 1 didn*t know what was going on." "Well. Mr. Knapp was very angry, and had a long talk with Lane. He told me that the creature cried and pleaded for forgiveness and promised amendment for the. future. And Mr. Knapp believed him. Yet. that rcry night yon were assailed with Luella. in Chinatown." TT» truth flashed on ms. The groana and cries behind the k c k e d CHAPTER XXXI. The R»w*rd. "I've.-hoard About you," said Xiuella, when on the next evening 1 made my bow t o her. "But I w a n t to hear all about it from yourself. Tell toe, please." Then I told her the story of my coming, of the murder ot Henry Wilton, of the struggles with death and difficulty that had given t h e spice of variety to my life since I hjatT come across the continent. It was an inspiration to have such a listener. Under the encouragement of her sympathy I found an unwonted flow of words and ideas. Laughtex and tears shone in h e r eyes as the ludicrous and sorrowful parts of my. experience touched her by t u r n s . And at the end I found that 1 was clasping her hand. F o r a minute we were silent. "Oh," she qvied softly, withdrawing her hand and Jopking dreamily,away, And i h j y e faith-;-;' said Luella. "I knew ft was right—that it must be right. You have justified my faith, and m o r e ! " "I am repaid for all by those words," I said. "You deserve a much greater reward than that," said Luella. ' 1 wRnt a much greater reward than that," said I boldly. I did not. think the courage was in me. But under the magnetic influence of the woman before me I forgot what a poor devil I was. Luella looked at me, and I saw in her eyes that she understood what I would say. T do not know what I did say. 1 have no doubt it was very badly put, but she listened seriously. Then she tmld: "That's very nice of you to want me, but I am going to marry the president of the Omega Company." I turned sick with despair at these words so gently said, and a pang of jealously, tinged with wonder, shot through me. "Surely she can't be in love with that red-faced brute we fought with in the Omega office," I thought. Luella saw my distress as I tried to rise and fly from the place. "Don't, go," ghe said gently. "What are you going to do with your men?" "The free companions are to be disbanded," I said, recovering myself with a gulp. "And you, Mr. Dudley0 " This question struck me a little. blank. I had really not. thought of what I was going to do. "It's another case of an occupation gone," I said rather ruefully. "With the hreak-up of the plots and the close of the Omega -deal T am at the end of my employments." With this view of the question hefore me, I fell into a panic of regrets and began to blush furiously at my folly in imagining for an instant that Lucila could think of me for a hus band. "No," said Luella thoughtfully. "You are Just at the beginning."' The tone, even more than the words, braced my nerves, and once more there glowed within me a generous courage of the future. "You are right. 1 thank you." I said feelingly. "I have faith in the opportunities." Then she atop "Iit,tjie«maa, I Jiope,"Tventured.

I fell back ou the chair, speechless. "There'll be a good salary," he continued.- "Well, of course, you needn't be in a hurry to accept. Take a day to think over it If you like.*' The Wolf actually smiled. , "Oh, I don't heed any thne," 1 gasped. "I'll take it now." . "Well, you'll have to wait till the directors meet," he said. I gave him my hearty thanks for the unlooked*for favor. "To tell you the truth," he said, "it was the doing of the women folks."

The King of the Street waved me good night, and I went back to the patlor. Luella was sitting where I had left her, and no one else was about. She was looking demurely down and did not glance up ttft I was beside her. "I have won a double prize," [ said. "I am the president of Omega."' And I stooped and kissed her. THK END. Many New.

Byron's proposal to his wife, Miss Milbanke, was made after sordid discussion and study and lacked all impulse. Lady Melbourne, who stood in his confidence, observing how cheerless and unsettled his mind and prospects were, strenuously advised hitn to marry. She suggested a certain iady, but Lord Byron fancied tho Idea of marrying Miss Milbanke. "No," said Lady Melbourne; "Miss Milbanke will not suit you. In the first place, she has no fortune now, and you want money immediately. In the next place, you want a person who will have great admiration for your genius; •he has too great an admiration for herself." "Well," said Byron, "as you please." And, sitting down, he wrote a letter to the lady recommended by Lady Melbourne. He received a refusal. "Now, you see," said he, "Miss Milbanke Is to bo the person, after all. I will write to her." As soon as lie had finished his friend, •till remonstrating, read tbe note and Observed; "Well, really, this is a Very pretty letter. It is a pity It should not go." "Then It shrill go," exclaimed Byron. And, so saying, he sealed and sent the flat of his unhappy fate. you good. 25c at Siglers drug store. that way.

Middlebrook remained in Merriam's employ two years before the ambition of his employer was attained. Merrlain was nominated, and he was so good a man that the opposition hesitated about putting up a candidate of its own. Indeed, Merriam was congratulating himself on the prospect of having no opposition whatever when he saw a notice one morning in his newspaper that astonished him. It was no less than a n announcement of his stenographer, Truby Middlebrook, that he would be a candidate for mayor at the coming election. Now, there had been the best of feeling between the two men. Merriam had raised Middlebrook's salary several times and had supposed that the stenographer was devoted to him. "Mr. Middlebrook," said Merriam, " I have seen your notice. You have a perfect right to run for office against j me, but—but—well, your action Is Just like a thousand things your predecessors have done who were—women. That's all." Mr. Middlebrook withdrew without a word, and what filled the measure of his employer's astonishment was that he thought he s a w a tear in bis stenographer's eye.

He was still puzzled a t his employee interposing himself between him and the office he coveted, but he was above lifting a finger to defeat that employee's intention. The evening before the election Middlebrook took his chief's dictation, a s usual, and was about to retire when he turn- j ed, evidently shaken by considerable ' emotion, and said: "Mr. Merriam, I've been a mean, i wicked thing. You've been just tod I lovely to mc for anything, and in re- j turn I've attempted to deprive you of what yon so em mostly desire and are so much better fitted for than I." The young man took out his handkerchief and wiped tears which were \ flowing from his eyes. i "What in thunder does this mean?" exclaimed Merriam. "You talk and act for all the world like one of those con- . founded women." ' "I am a woman. My name is Katherlne Gile. 1 wanted an office and disguised myself as a man to get one. I w l s h - 1 wish I was a t the bottom of the sea." She turned away in a n emotional storm. Merriam sat gaping at her for a time; then, with a twinkle in his eye, he replied to her last remark "Yon would there find Mr McGinty, and yon would have to continue in man's clothes to beat him nt hla legitimate work rhe work of a fisherman." "I didn't intend." said the g t t , her back still turned toward her employer and political opponent, "to run agajoat fou.

Aa It happened this year Old Joe Cuwaill had varied his usual program *> remaining all winter and .well into t h e ansnmer in Sauger's, and it was m t cuatil one morning In July that he a a d his mule were seen In marching order, alowly. making their way down t h e country road toward the south. Three men sittiug on the veranda of the 8hasta house, were discussing a M W mining boom. Suddenly one of them slapped his knee, and brought his chair down with a taad on the floor. "Say, hoys, I've got an idea that'll fdve »s «>me fun and set up the an cleat prospector in the highest heaven of joy. Let's grubstake him!" Load bursts of laughter greeted the proposition, but after a lit|le, the nige ness pf the joke began to appeal strongly to these prominent citizens of fttk •****• later, the bfjvrikler^ri old maajptedded, in a daze, beside his pack mqJo, with the pleasant recollec "She Jest Cried, She Was So Glad to See Me." tirA of a hearty meal, and the amazing; reality of threa brilliant, twenty dollar gjokl pieces clanking their shin ing aides against each other in hi? pocket, » The grubstake was kept a secret be tweea the three partners of Old Joe, • ' ' 1 hdur after the letter was read, every* body knew the story oX the trne«xdou ble eagles and their sequel. The three men who had grubstaked the successful ruirxjr were the most surprised or all. A reception committee was appointed to welcome the lucky miner. On Thursday morning Sauger's rose early and decorated the building* ou Main street with garlands of spruce and rir, and cotton flags left over from the last- Fourth of July celebration. Half au hour before train time, the platform of the little railway utation was crowded with expectant Saugerites. All the jokes of the past six months were revived to" while away the long moments before the train was due, but no joke iwas as potent to bring a laugh as the idea of the entire town 6T Sauger's Pass turning out to hbnor the arrival of Old Joe Cunnili, whom, three months before, the very dogs had not considered worth a bark. An echoing whistle from far down the canyon at last brought silence, and the crowd made way for the reception committee to step close to the track. With a warning screech from the engine and a clanging of the bell, the train swept around a curve, rumbled over the bridge, and stopped, puffing impatiently. Sauger's held its oreath. At last a familiar figure was seen to descend from the high steps. "AM aboard!" shouted the conductor, signaling the engineer. As the engine began to gather momentum slowly, in puffy jerks, for the upgrade run. there was spilled from the second day coach an accumulation of females of assorted sizes, which piled up in a heap ou the cindery path beside the track, then rose, one by one. and meekly tagged the steps of Joseph Cunnili, capitalist. The train crept out of sight around the curve, but Sauger's did not know it. The bras* band was silent, and the reception committee stood stock still, and stared Rtnpidly. The committee, at last, regained its presence of mind, and stepped up to Old Joe, but Sauger's guest of honor was timidly making for the trail behind the station, which was the short cut to the town. Isaac Pendleton stopped him. "Here, Joe, old fellow, you ain't goln' to give ns the cold shoulder, are you? What you in such a hurry for?" Old Joe glanced nervously at the storekeeper, then at the unusual crowd. His face turned ashen, he clutched at his wrinkled throat. "You ain't goin' to make me swing for it, air ye?" he pleaded plteously. The reception committee laughed. "It's turned his head, sure." "No, Joe," Mr. Pendleton replied, this isn't Judge Lynch's party, though all the other prominent officials are out to honor you. Come on to the 'bus and tell us all about it." Rut Joe fell to trembling so that he could scarcely stand. "Ask—ask her; she'll tell ye," he stammered, pofcutog behind him. The gaze of the crowd was transferred to the aggregation of females, wfiich presntrtfd a shrinking front to the public %»e. The' oldest, of afcont. 46 summen, unkempt and forlorn-eyed, gath ered the youngest, aged two, to her breast, grouped around her the remaining seven, ranging from 18 down, and cast her eyes on the ground in frightened confusion.

One of the acts last legislature was to pass a law brin«ing all Juvenile offenders within the .Jurisdiction of the Probate Court. Comparatively few offenses by juveniles need punishment it being more essential to reason with the child and give him a chance rather than blight his life by sending him to different institutions. " People having their children brought before the present Judge A. A. Montague, can feel assured that they will receive ju9t and fair treatment, as those best acquainted with him know he has a warm place in his heart for the yonng ones and realizes that many of their offenses are due to the thoughtlessness of childhood rather than criminal intent, and is anxious to give the children an opportunity to develop into a useful man or woman. In fact we feel that the Judge is the right man in the right place. of all parties through out. the county His ability as a public official as well as an attorney at law places him in the front rank and at the head of the legal profession in his county. The r e c o g n i t i o n o! his ability by the members of the democratic party in in Livingston gave him a nnamiou.s nomination for Jndge of Probate at their county convention. An abler and better qualified man tor this important office wuuld be hard to find in this county, his largo and diversified law praotice coupled with his judicial turn of mind has certainly fitted him to fully understand the needs of the people in the transaction of this important court. Mr. Van Winkle will be a strong candidate and the precedent so long established that but one term has ever been given the Jndge ot Probate, it will be a great change if Mr, VanWinkla is aot elected the next Judge of Frobatt of Livingston connty.—fttrakl.

It deals with knotty problems which are hard to adjust. Mr. Mow^r'.s courteous but fearless methods however have been so satisfactory that only one of the many who have been interested in his dicissions has appealed. In that case the commissioners a-sessed more to the man who appealed, instead of less, thus endorsing M. Mowers action in the matter. W 1th all the work that has been done in the past twe years the Honey Greek dram in Putnam is the only one his opponents have found to yell about. The joke is that the work complained of for this drain was done before .»lr. Mowers went into office, and is not Mr. Mowers work at all. Frank £ .

Peary's Peril, Henry Johnson, able seaman of Peary's vessel, the Roosevelt, has arrived In New York from Greeland, bringing the first, oral news of the arctic expedition. While gefting ice water from a glacier in Etah, Johnson was stricken with a' chfll in his knee and sank on the ice unable to walk. He grew worse rapidly and to his bitter disappointment, he says, was obliged to start south to save his leg from amputation,.. A condensed diary of the expedition was kept by Johnson. The diary states that a hurricane encountered July 29, just off the coast of Greenland, opened the seams of the Rooserelt at the bow tq-stsch an extent that several of the crew felt her to he practically unseaworthy for a rough voyage among crunching Icebergs. While the vessel wasrfpaired partly l$:4^*b JNta?e-*hp steamed jjorth, Johnson says her leaky bow causes apprehension among some that she may not survive the perilous t r i p .

Henry Bradford left his Old Colon) h<nne on a brignt sommei day to seek b | f fortune 1« New Y0&. He bad the best wishes of everybody, for he was a decent boy, and all who knew him liked his manly ways. »But he found the metropolis a tough proposition. T h e fierce, pushing, fight* fdMlfe workseekers Jostled and crowded tatt beifona!aU; his forevioue' ^ c e c t J k ^ , . > # ; • j r f f o * , hftvlog M faculty of retailstlflg ip kind, found himself pushed to tha *»lW . He got employment, it Is true, but he could not bold it for any length of Hue, owing largely to his lack of knowledge of urttan conditions, and also to much bad luck. So, after four years' struggle. He gave !t u0 and acknowledged himself beaten. The struggle had W a ' tfeontfnuooa and altogether oue-sjded. an<| as h* tat upon the stringplece of an Kast river pier, it was barne in upon him that he bad made a* good a fight afr he knew how. And l o s t ! -t And now. when Failure had completely . enveloped him In her somber c l p a k / b e fatt jhere was aotfilbg 'elsvfc to do but to return to the old town. There, at least, he could live, and he among those who knew him and would sympathise with him. Of the two dollars which he possessed; one dollar would pay his fare to Providence, and It would be a small matter for him to walk the intervening miles to his old home. . . . This plan he carried into effect, and the evening of an early October day found him in Plymouth, which adjoined Ti'is home town. He was. tired, footsore and discouraged. Plymouth always held a fascination for him. aiid lie belook hlm3elf to the Hurial hill and there, on a lonely bench, he looked down upon the lights of. Market square, to the riding-lights of a few craft lying at anchor In the harbor, and,( further, ..tQ that great light onthe1 Gurnet whose effuteen't' ray* guided and warned l o W anil coastwise mariners. Long. h e ' i s a t and' luooued. One by ope the lights were extinguished, and »8 the town went to bleep he felt the necessity of doing likewise;' He stumbled down the nar row i>ath to Market square, across the main Rtreet. and, as though drawn by *ome magnet, to the water's edgf\ There the gray canopy with it.s Iron natc, which shields Plymouth Rock from the vandal and the relic hunter, reared its head. Everything was familiar to Henry, yet his eye dwelt longingly on each object. Here was a short strip of pebbly beach, and drawn hiKh up on it was a fisherman's dory. The boat contained a pair of oars, a sprit-sail and mast, a coiled seine, and, in the stern, a small breaker of fresh water. Without hesitation he stepped aboard, and, adjusting the thwarts.and oars and arranging the sail so that it would act: a s a cover for him, he lay down and in two minutes was sound asleep, Henry Bradford was a sound sleep er, a very sound sleeper, else this siroy might never have been written. He knew naught of the stealthy rise of the tide nor of the lift of the dory as she became water borne, nor did he know that in his earlier arrangements he had loosened the noosed painter from the bowlder over 'which it had been slipped!, He did not feel. the impact of the. gentle southwest wind which nafted £he dory slowly but surer ly^tp *he. potnjt o f / $ e beaeh. * The "outgoing .tide in Plymouth harbor'!* much like a mill-race as it burri. «ftt>itet t h * greater waters of Barnarable bay.

He katw himself tr> be I n j i ' s bend, with a mcurh 1 the dory, and he aiso realised that thr< i shot hull lot:, is rrowr.rd A Hurried Examination of the Papers. got hiBiheurings. biis dory had s!iiuj»od but little water during the awful tumult. He was in the a< i of stepping 1he mant, when a now sound broke i!jjt)u his eai1. It was ih^ slatting of a vessel's sails, and in his immediate proximity. His strained eyes discerned a blotch upon the blackness of the night, slightly an his port bow and liacoming momentarily plainer to his visicu. A moment later he was able to make out a .schooner, with all sail set, riding deeply in the water and nearly hove-to. Henry dropped the ma3t and shipped the oars, a few strokes of which brought him on her weather quarter, whence he lustily hailed: 'Schooner, ahoy!" which, being repeated and varied with "Aboard the schooner," bringing him no reply, he again seized his oars and brought the dory alongside. He leaped lightly on board, painter in hand. He trailed his boat astern and secured the painter firmly. The schooner was on the starboard tack with all sail set, including fore and main gaff topsails, foretopmast staysail, jib and flying jib. About 20 feet of her midship bulwark was torn away and hsr decks were wet and -ailppe^J* from' recent mtrodatToiitt; A' hasty tnspeeitott of the cabin berths and Its single stateroom disclosed no sign of life. An Inspection of the deck forecastle produced similar results, and Henry Hradfprd realixed tkat he was the only living being aboard that ill fated schooner. '. His mind was now intensely alert and he was on famHl.ir ground. As fast as halyards ecmld be.-aandled, he clewed up both ^aff 'topsail^,' and hauled down and fnrled the flying jib, Jift amf. foretoprriast staysail. \ Then, ftftf'r^ stoppering both, gaff topsails, he returned to the deck and in a few minutes had t i e schooner upon toe proper course for .Boston light. Daylight bad come aad t t t wind had freshened slightly. A hurried exanimation of the papers In t o * 'captain's staterdoW disclosed the Vessel'^ manifest, which gave the information that the schooner Clara iigtes, 460 tons register, owned by Bates ft Joyce of Postua. commanded by jUapt. 3*r« Perry, of 8ajem, and a crew,- of five men,, was. carrying 630 tons .of coal consigned to the owners of the vease.1 in Boston. A nwal.l »mn pf monej in the captain's desk and the usual instruments . of navigation, > were the things of most value which caught Bradford's eye during his hurried examination. The demands of the inner man were satisfied with a substantial breakfast, consisting of hmn, fried potatoes and h o t coffee. The'wind held true, and Bradford's mind Had already worked out a plan of operations. He led his Jib downhaul and jib halyards—secured by a slip noose—aft, and,, once la smooth water, he made rowdy hi* shot!t anefcor* secu/ed by a cat stopper only, and overhauled a few fathoms of chain. At four o'clock that afternoon, he brought the Clara listen into- the- wind on £ou(h. Boston Hats, hauled down his jib and, as the vessel lost way, slipped his eal-stopper and anchored i ; ' The re^-t is mere detail: It was in the fall of the great coal strike; and coal was eoel. Henry sent word to Bates A Joyce by the harbor piaster's tag, and an hour later , the corpulent and genial Mr. Joyee was on board and had heard Henry's wonderful story, ,jA£., p,- o'qipek.ihe-inaxi day Henry Bradford signed a release attA accepted a lump sum of $D,09t in lieu of all seiarlees rendered • and salvage expected. There is one more happy detail. The 20 feet of bulwark that was torn away from the side'of the Clara Bates acted a r a life raft for the members of her company, who were swept overboard at the same time,. They'were"picked up a few hourg later by an ocean-going tug with a tow of coal barges and bound for Salem. /A,t the earnest request of Henry Bradford, his name was suppressed from the newspaper accounts of the waiving of the Clara Bates, arid his appearance amoug his townspeople'a few days later was received 'as'"the home-coming of a man 'Who had gone outy-done battle with the great world and returned successful. , He Got Something Good.

Its functions being entirely different from those ot tbe justice, circuit or supreme courts. Tbe bulk of tbe work iu in overseeing the administration ot tbe estates ot deceased persons, minors and incompetents, and in making the proper public record thereof. It is undoubtedly surprising for many lo realize that the value of property being bandied under tbe supervision ot this court exceeds that involved in tbe circuit. For tb.it* rev son it is evident that the records must be complete, that tbe Judge of Probate must give the details of each estate the closest scrutiny which in turn requires a complete and thorough knowledge ot the probate laws. The present Judge, Mr. A. A.

Recognizing the, importance of this office to all the people of the county and the fact that it needs a competent official with a judicial mini and a knowledge of tbe law, the very best selection was made. Wm. P. Van Winkle is a lawyer by profession. He has been in active practice in all tbe courts ot this state for more than twenty years. His education and long experience lias fitted him to administer the duties ot this important office. It can well be said that no man in the eounty is better fitted for tbis position, The duties ot this office are very important and becoming more important. All the property in the county passes through tbe hands ot this ccurt every thirty years. The last session ot the legislature euacted a law providing for juvenile courts and vested in tbe several probate courts of tbe state for that purpose the jurisdiction of dependant negleeled and, delinquent cbildren, - The probate court is, under the laws of this state, a court of ,record., The questions constantly arising and to be passed upon.in that court are of the the utmost importance to ail the people. With due respect for tbe men who have hald tbis county, we believe that Mr. Van Winkle will make tbe best probate judge tLe county has ever bad and should be elected. A Good Ndminatiofi> fc The republican party juade no mistake in giving the nomination for drain commissioner to the present incumbent, Frank E. Mowers, who has conducted the office in a business like manner with fairness to all. While the county drain ta^ amount* to considerable each year the commissioner is not to blame for the number of drains as that is done by petition of the tax payers and he cannot commence a drain ot himself without such petition and then IT IS HIS DUTY TO DO SO. Mr. Mowers has done his full duty and where there has been anyone inconsidered as evidence that t h e terested enough to examine closbly into b a n k e r s want to discourage any the matter they find that in nearly N.

There are two ways of doing things officially. One is to ride rou^b-shod over the rights ot people, because an officer has power, The other way is to carefully study the ueed for action and justice to individuals, and while doing one's full official duty, at the same time be courteous and fair to everyone. Frank E. Mowers of Putnam has shown himself a courteous, but at the same time a painstaking and obliging official. His official acts have been so carefully and thoroughly done that every one has stood. So reasonable has he made every project he has undertaken that there have been very t3w contests and in tbis way alone a good many dollars have been saved to tbe county by saving expensive litigation. The people who havn met Mr. Mowers officially during his first term as drain commissioner are the warmest support he has for re-election.— Tidings ATTENTION!

"I've got just the thing you want," said Dobson, taking out a beautifully d r a w n map. "There's 800 acres of It, which we can soil you at $100 an acre. This will leave you a couple of thousand for improvements besides your farm. There's only one trouble about my selliug It to you. My partner Is dead set upon our taking It ourselves. I would be in favor of it, too, but we've got so much now we can't pay the taxes." The young farmer studied t h e map deliberately and after he had finished said he would go and look at the property. Dobson touched a bell. An office boy entered and was directed to call Mr. Cram. The junior partner came In and was informed by Mr. Dobson that he had offered the fanner t h e Gardner tract a t $100 an acre, whereupon a violent quarrel ensued, at the end of which Mr. Cram left t h e room In a huff, threatening to enjoin his partner from making the sale. Dobson was so angry that he vowed the trade should be made before Cram had a chance to interfere. The young man took the hook and paid two ten-dollar bills to bind the bargain. Before he left the office he had drawn a check on his bank for $8,000 and had a deed for 800 acres of swamp and hill land, the latter covered with a second growth of worthless timber. "Goodly, Mr. Dobson," he said at parting. "I shan't forget your effort in my behalf, and I hope it won't get you into trouble with Mr. Cram." H e had no sooner gone than the two partners were congratulating each other on the sale. "Shake, old man," said Dobson. "You played your part beautifully." "But you landed him. He's as innocent as a kitten." T w o years passed during which neither Dobson nor Cram heard anything of the Gardner tract or its purchaser, when one day Cram said to Dobson: "The young man we scooped with that swnmp and timber land in Boonton county is in the other room and wants to see you. Look out for him. Some one may have put him up to getting even. The law can't touch us, but he may have some game to play." "Trust me for games." Dobson went in where the young man was waiting, with outstretched hand and eyes beaming with kindli- ' ness. i "Mr. Dobson." said the youngster, j "that property has turned out better than was expected. There's coal on i t " "Good!'' exclaimed Dobsou, slappfhg the boy on the nack. Inwardly he said, "Why didn't you say gold or diamonds?" "Yes; they say It's the finest anthracite In the state." "Splendid:" Another slap on t h e back. "I'm indebted for my good luck to you. Do you remember how you sold me the property before your partner could interfere?" "Yes; I remember t h a t " "Well, one good turn deserves another. T've got an offer of $230,000 for the property from a coal company. I feel that I shouldn't keep all this good lurk to myself, seeing that you were so kind to me. I'll divide. I'll sell to you for half. $12\000, and turn you over the coal company's written offer, good for thirty days." "My dear fellow." said Dobson. striving to maintain a countenance that would not betray his seeing through the stupendous game, "you arc the very soul of honor. I'll speak to Cram about i t " Going to Cram's office, he shut the door and as soon as he could control his lanehter told him how the yoang farmer was trying to pay them In their own coin. After a pretended consultation he returned to the boy and said: "That partner of mine will be my ruin.

Prevent lyory toilet articles are quite as fashionable a» silver ones now, and the fact that they are more difficult to.clean in no way detracts from their popularity. It 1B not easy to remove stalna from the mellow, creamy material iwMhont spoiling its tone. So** useful hints on cleaning ivory, are given herewith: When the stains are very sligHt and id*? lfot' seem"-io be permanent, though they cannot be rubbed off with a dry cloth, wash the ivory ^thoroughly in warm water and Koa'p ^udV fend then, without dfying it on a cloth, place it in the bright Mjnlig1»t for a few minutGB. This ex->|and then exhale forcibly. This excels i t posure* will usually remove the stains. After ttley have disa^i^eared wash the ivory again' In soap and water, rinse it thoroughly'hnrt dry carefully with a soft: cloth. Where the stains do not disappear entirely after contact with the sun's rays the ivory should be washed again in aoap ajul water, then rinsed in clear water to which a little lemon juice has been added. Care niuftt be taken to have the {temperature of the water right, aw too great heat will injure the ivory. Very dark discoloration^ require the services" of an expert to remove, though one may be fairly successful by rubbing oxalic acid solution, not too strong, and applying this to the dark spots or streaks with a' brush.

FOR CLEAR, VELVETY SKIN. Plenty of Fresh Air and a Good Massage Cream Are Essential. (jood teeth, sparkling eyes and beautiful hair are all essential to personal attractiveness, but probably the greatest charin of woman is a clear, fresh, velvety skin. Queens have paid fortunes to attain Ihls one charm alone! But cosmetics and artificial beautiflera won't accomplish what aiding nature will. A muddy or otherwise unfortunate complexion is best overcome by the following plan. Give up greasy foods and heavy pastries. Take daily exercise out of doors, or when driving fill the luugs with good blood-purifying air. Breathe deep, bold the breath An out on my tbe stagnant air In recesses of the lungs. It is this stagnant air that literally poisons the system, making' bad blood which in time shows on the face. House dust in the connfry is'almost as bad lor the complexion as Is the dust of a big city. Notice a sunbeam coming through the window into a room. You will see thousands of small dust particles floating in the air. These get into the pores and work havoc unless one's eliminating system is unusual. A cleansing or massage cream works down into the pores and brings out these dust particles which soap and water cannot reach. Moreover, the massaging of the face is In itself beneficial, as it starts the red blood doursing to the cheeks. Care must be used to select a reliable massage cream. A good massage cream plus plenty of. fresh air and proper diet will work wonders in preserving and beautifying one's complexionwoman's dearest charm. eruptions broke • j} daughter's elfcsjP'/14 took het, to a, doctor, and he pronounced it to be eczema of a* vew.bad form.

WEIL Oo|jjrl<tt, 1WT, b/ Tha AWHUWI Suuda/ SYNOPSIS. •'Va-niaMiiK Fleets," u stury of "what luiirht Hare happened,' opens In Washington with the Ihiit*d States and Japan on the verge Of war. Guy KtlUer. KCCretary of the British embassy, and Miss Norma vfteberts. chief aide of Inventor Roberta? are Introduced as lovers. The Kovemment is much crlticincd because uf its lack of preparation for strife. C H A P T E R I—-Continued. "Listen," he commanded, again leaning toward her. "There is something which makes me think you lov;e me. I shall ask noihing more of \'our father, or of your plans, because I want to make you see the position.'' He frowned at the waiter, who came toward them and then retreated. "Xorni," he went on, "there is to be war. Your country is unprepared. It "will be overrun by an enemy that iar ruthless a n d ' t h a t will come to con'-, •quer. The end may not be defeat, but as certain aw death this country will, writhe and suffer before it can, regain the* ground it will lose in the outset. Can't you see that? Can't you understand what it. will bo tor you and your father here under such conditions? Don't you know that iov your very safety you must leave? AH my wife, or even my betrothed, I can make the way so much easier for you! t^ive me the right, dear, .give Hie the right!" "It Is impossible," site replied, turning'toward him again; and he looked hurt. "It is the very danger of war that makes it so, You don't know how much I wish I could say yea to' you; but It's impossible. I must lie with my father. 1 owe it to him. He can't go away, nor can I leave him, So until the way is clear we can be friends only, and no more.'' lie sat stunned for a moment, vainly striving to understand a eircum stance or combination of conditions which could have dictated such an answer. Then the thoughl came that perhaps the girl before him waa.making a sacrifice to some awful menace, and it. could be only one thing— the threatened insanity of her father. Hut what had the war to do with that? Perhaps she would never be more to him if her father went insane, because then she would say no because of her very love fdr him, and the fear for posterity. Their happiness, then, was to depend upon the condition of an old man's mind. "Norm,'' he asked, softly, "is it insanity?" She turned toward him in amazement, not fathoming his line of reasoning. "I can tell you nothing more." She spoke as one under stress and suppression. "You must ask nothing more. You must take my love on faith or not a t all until you know it is time for you to tell me again that 1 am necessary to you." .. He felt that it was a crisis with them, and slowly thought of what he might say to break away this barrier or induce her to remove the embargo. They sat looking into the distance; but, hefore he could formulate an argument the sound of a horse's hoofs madly clattering over the pavements naught, their attention. It came nearer and nearer, and then past them on the street, below a man in soldier's uniform flashed by. They looked at each other wonderingly, half starting to their feet, and as they looked a sudden pandemonium broke forth. From an alleyway nearby burst an army of newsboys, the streets Htufdenly brcame alive with pedestrians belched forth from cafes and hotels, and above all other sounds came ihe cries of ""Extry! Kxtry! War broken out! War! War! W a r ' " She turned away from him as if in thrive cries were an irrevocable sentence of misery, parte.I the vines and stood silently looking out into the night; and he knew without soring that in her eyes wore tear-.;. CHAPTER II. The Sword of the Samursi. The nation Was in a turmoil. Throughout the night and the following, day the newspapers of the country • e a t forth a more: or less trustworthy recouutal of the opening of hosbii- .ti*a»*- It- hail Imen known for wve^t that the transports or Japan guarded by her eiitlre navy bjtfliassembled oft Nagasaki! it hacUevfck IbwOR rep«#rtu*A tijti Ih'eylhad fiuJlA a ' i j y trf 4>uchjru waters,' But ftnfV TitrtS Thet \vith laTtrf denia!.

Strangely enough the first reports uf .war came frpru foreign sources; but tfiif Vexiiuuctjbq|ifedfy official, having been imparted by Japan to her ally, (Jmat Hritain. The bulletins issued by-} thu I^yndpn. paujars byre ,.1 lie undoubted l'ing ot semi-official utterancop. That, of r^he JDaij^Mail, cabled in furl to the American press, read: "Japan, reluctantly abandoning hope of peace by ordinary method*, has been driven ,to the extreniu recourse and had officially declared war against the United States of America.-" Within halt a a hour after the Issuance of this bulletin a second announcement was raadei which look no cognizance of the fact that the official declaration must have been preceded by decisive action: "The Japanese war office has been advised that on the 27th instant at noon the Philippine island* were compelled to surrender to the Japanese fleet, which appeared oft Manila. Not only did the city itself capitulate, but possession of the entire Islands has been given over. The Japanese government announces with due modesty that it has gained a complete and unqualified victory without the loss of a man. "Later.—rt is announced by the Japanese government that the parole of ail officers and men of the United States army in the Philippines has been accepted, and the men of the vanquished army have been allowed lo sail for San Francisco on bojtrd foreign ships, which were lying iu the harbor at the time of surrender." From every quarter of the land came insistent demands for official news from the government, coupled with requests for detailed accounts of the defeat. The administration replied with Ihe brief statement that no verified report ol the action in the Philippines could be given out at that time, it did slate, however, that, the . official declaration of war had been duly received, that the Japanese ambassador had been withdrawn, the legation closed and that the officials would lea\e New York for their own country that evening, sailing by way of Liverpool. Public clamor gave way to popular indignation. The country was aflame with wai spirit. Guardsmen gathered in their armories, awaiting official bulletins and the expected call to arms; ami yet no orders came. Tiie governors of several states telegraphed to the war department for advice; but their only satisfaction was in the following message sent broadcast by the secretary of state: "The government, recognizing the patriotism and readiness of the National Guard of the United States, does not at this immediate moment desire its services. It is well to bear iu mind, however, that a sudden call may be issued at a later date and to be prepared for emergencies. It wishes to announce further that in its judgment there will be no necessity for fighting on land, and that the situation is completely under control. So far there have been no casualties reported from the Philippines." Whatever may have been the slate of the public mind before the issuance of this declaration, the country now gasped with amazement. Some of the more violent and outspoken journals demanded of the men at Washington a statement of what they purposed to do in this emergency,'and the most radical intimated in no uncertain terms that incompetent, administrations were subject to impeachment. Put. to all of this outburst the government officials most directly interested presented only the same calm, placid and indifferent front. There was nothing to be detected in their demeanor to indicate that any action whatever had been taken. The various members of the diplomatic corps, even to the highest of the foreign ambassadors, gathered no new information. They were invariably told, first, that the United States knew there had been a declaration of war; second, that, the United States knew that the Philippines had be€n surrendered; third, that no orders had been issued up to that hour for the sailing of any fleet, but. that it waa expected orders would be given before the day was over. The men of the foreign representation one and all felt a gentle rebuff tantamount to being told that the United States was attending strict 1 \ to its own lut^ine^ aa-.l desired neither to be advised nor to he compelled in answer questions. None felt this more keenly than the members of the 1'ritish legation, and Cay Hillier In particular. His meeting of the night b -fore with Miss Roberts had not terminated satisfactorily, but had come to an abrupt close when he hade her good night at the door of her home, and with all his questions unnnswerel. Since t r n moment there had been little time for fail,. ^ I . h x , . , , . K - , v , , x l „ w r . ^ " " • • " " , . , , or to conjecture over her strange attitude. L' . . + / > . ' Throughout the early morning, he hurried tills way and that, receiving visitors and answering leftuysty'Jtyi information from Cr^at Britain, ills superior, heated and exasperated, broke in upon him almost us be wus ^tailing to call up Mius ltob:Tl~' i •al deuce. "tiny," the ambassador said, ".we are iu a country of lunatics. There* is something in this government's atti' tude that is inexplicable. It can't be tiial they are all cowards, and yet I have something to show you." The ambassador drew a handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped the perspiration 'from his forehead, after which he reaejied a large pudgy ringer over to t t e secretary's desk, pi-easing there oh a pearl topped, electric butiou. "Walters," h e . said to, Uay uflbar WIMJ cauie Into the I-MO)U in answer to the snmiuons, "neither Mr. Hillier nor myself is here, and we won't be back for an hour; that is what you ar« to say without exception/' Then as the attendant bowed himself out he beckoned the secretary to follow him into the secluelon of" his private office. "Hillier," he began, throwing; a paper on the desk before the secre tary, who had seated hiiuseir on the opposite side, "read that." The secretary saw before hiui a code telegram neatly interpreted between the lines. It was evidently an official order addressed to a fleet commander a t Callao, Peru. "What do you make of that," lie asked in a tone of great disgust, and then, as Hillier started to question hiui, put up his hand for silence. No, it doesn't matter where I got it, or how I had it decoded; it is genuine, aH right." The secretary siared at him with a look of blank interrogation on his face, while the ambassador rose from the seat into which he had thrown The Ambassador Rose from His Seat. himself only a moment before, leaned over his desk, resting himself on the knuckles of his clenched bauds, ant] said: "That is an order from the secrelary of the navy positively commanding all the vessels owned by the United States in Pacific waters to return without delay to Haltimore. It's a shame, that's what it is! The other nations of the world should intervene and prevent this country from committing suicide. Conditions are so extraordinary that I don't dare intrust anyone but you to make a. report of the situation, and you have got to do that in person," He walked up and down the room excitedly for a few moments, freely expressing his perplexity over the turn of events, and ended by abruptly ringing for a timetable and a sailing list, which he consulted before again addressing himself to his secretary. "Get out of here as quickly as you can!" he ordered. "Go to your rooms, throw what stuff you need into a, bag. and take the first train you can get for New York! I shall meet you at the station here and give you strch reports of conditions as I can write in the meantime. When you get to New York, go as quickly as you can to the Canard dock, from which the Lucania is due to sail early in the morning. I shall hold her up until you arrive. Deliver my letters in person to the foreign secretary's office in London, and answer such questions as you can regarding this remarkable situation and this incomprehensible government. These matters are too important to admit of delay and ordinary official reports. Go quickly!" he concluded, almost shoving Tlillier through the door. "I'll attend to everything hero. Don't let there lie any delay on your part!" The secretary hurried away to make preparations for his departure. leaving the perturbed ambassador to prepare his reports. lie called a rah and drove to his apartment, intent on first telephoning to Miss Roberts. His man met him at the door and handed him a letter addressed in a familiar hand, which he hastily tore open and rexd as he sto^d In the open doorway: "Dear Guy: I h a r e been called • i m a y very wMklttaly*. mid aoi goiag to my father.

Cood-by. NORMA." Stunned by this unexpected misaive, he hurried to ihe itilephoue, and in a l'ev«r of hasie and anxiety called up her .pjomc, only to be, to4d that sh« had departed in the earlier hours of the morning after receiving' a message presumably. , from her father. He could.learn nothing further of her. He way stopped as IT by an insurmountable wall. He carded the fate which separated them and the order which stmt him away without giving time to see her, and almost in OJM'B rebellion thought tor a moment of refusing to act as king's courier, resolving rathar to resign frgui his positiou and abandon his post; but he was bound by the training or years and the demands of duty, aud at the last moment boarded the train which was to take him from the country and the woman he loved. And even as he went the object of his solicitude was speeding away into the south on a special train. The train consisted of only two Pullmans and a diniug car. Hefore it in its southern flight the way seem«4 always open, and hour after hour it rushed onwai.d, drawn by the most powerful locomotives that could be obtained. Norma was the only womr»n passenger aboard; all the others were grim-facpd, sun-tanned men of the sea, who had been summoned to Washington from various navy yards and shjps wi.tiiia the month. Of all on board, she was .the only civilian, and yet. ihe one • whjum vjip- government seemed most anxious to transport. The officers themselves gathered into little group*, discussing the war which had opened so abruptly, and speculating as to why in such an important crisis they had been ordered from their posts of duty to report for further advices and sealed instructions at so unimportant and isolated a seaport as the small one on the coast of Florida lo which they were headiug. Another singular feature of 'hie journey was that all aboard, from the distinguished admiral to the ju«.ior lieutenant commander, were, by or der, in the plainest of civilian dress. That It had been the intention of the war department to maintain their identity secret was proved by the mmments of a railway official who stood near one of the coaches while waiting for a chauge of locomotives. "You understand, don't you," he said to a man apparently a train (lis patcher, standing beside him, "that this train has the right of way over everything? Sidetrack the flyer if necessary to get. this through^ There can't he anything in front of her, and the only limit to her time is the speed of the engine that pulls her. 1 understand it's a party of secret service people ihe government is sending tc Cuba. That's all I know ahout it, and it's in line with everything else you naturally can e\]>ect from such a lot of insane men as th°y seem to have in Washington." They whirled away from the sta* tion, looking at each other blankly, and wondering what the outcome of all this mystery could he. Every action so far was without precedent. There was a disposition on the part of some of them to bemoan the fate which had detached them from th«jir ships at a time when the country was lo be defended and glory won: but this was brought to a sudden end by grim old "Fighting Pol)" Revins, the admiral, " who reprimanded them for daring to criticise their superiors oi their orders.

I t is in srssioD constantly and important questions are continually arising relative to both property and pergonal ritfbtu. Ky recent legislation it has a h o been made a juvenile court, thus eYleuding it» jurisdiction, which ruake» it imperatiye that tbe J u d g e must be versed in the laws appertaining to tbe duties of tb« court, and be ot a judicial t u r n of mind, thus being ::ompetant to deal justly with such cases in every particular. William P. VanWinkle, the Uemo (jiatic nominee tor this office, has all these needed qualiftcations. His past public servicer for Livingston county h\s established these facts, he is honest and trustworthy and has proven that he is an able lawyer by experience tully qualified to p-eside with dignity and ability over any court and render just decisions, too. Mr. VanWinkle is a man of good moral character and sterling qualities. During bis professional career he has performed many public duties, with credit and honor to himself and to the pe;»ple he has serysd. He ia well known in this county and where he is known the best his integrity and ability is admitted beyond question. No better qualified man tor this important office could be fiound in Livingston county. It is being circulated by some that being a lawyer of a lucrative practice, he would leave the work of the office to a deputy or clerk. This is a wrong story evidently told for political effect on the eve of election. It electsd, Mr. VanWinkle will give the duties of his office his first and best attention.

Electus Hadden the Republican candidate for the important office ot Sheriff of Livingston county is an ideal candidate tor that office. The county has no better citizen, he is a quiet unasuuiing man, whose word is as good as a bond. He was appointed under- j sheriff by Sheriff Rdwin Pratt and has i filled the position with honors to him- j self and has rendered faithful and efficient service to the people of Liv- i ingston county. His services ot the past tour years has shown him to be a ; man so ably fitted to till this po-ition j that the adherents of Ins party have honored him with the nomination by a j a r g e vote. Mr. Electus Hadden has been an almost lifelong resident NOTICE Having rented my farm will dispose of my personal property at public sale on October 29th, commencing at 9 a. m.

I t is securely locked and only the attendant can open it to release the animal. This is easily done by simply lifting the steel loop that connects the pivoted bar. The illustration on the right shows the Stanchion in place, locked. The one on the left shows the Stanchion open, standing and held firmly in position by steel guide straps, and it is impossible for the animal t o turn it, and no trouble is experienced by animal putting its head in the-stanchion. The stanchion is made of the best quality of hard wood, nicely finished; is made 4 ft. high, with 6l/2 inch space between the upright bars and can be adjusted very easily by taking out a bolt and make the space Sl/2 inches, so that it can be used for young stock or you can adjust the space wider for lx/2 inches or 8 inches which would be suitable for almost any size cattle. The stanchions are shipped set for 6 ^ inches between bars. Both top and bottom are made of malleble iron and is the strongest and lightest stanchion on the market.

S. T w o Morraaa preachers were preaching on our streets recently. Their do^trinn is never made clear until yon have been a convert for sorre time.

It is being urged by soma who are interested in electing some one else that Mr. Hadden being under sheriff; should, in some way count against his j election. The duties of under sheriff j are so few thit it. would not pay Mr. Hadden to bother with it only that he ] is conveniently located. It simply j gives him an acquaintance with the duties of the office and makes him a better candidate, I His record as Under Sheriff has revealed the fact though a quiet man ot few words he is a stand patter in j the performance of the duties intrnat- j ed to him. His own nearly four years service has fitted him well to properly perform the duties of the office, as he understands those duties well. If elected, as we believe he will be. Livingston county will have the service of a man who well know the duties of his office, and a will force to perform them without fear or favor. Where duty calls he will be found doing duty. There is no bulldosing in hia makeup, but whenever it, falls upou him to perforrae the duties of his office, if elected, he will perform them to the letter ot the law. This is certainly the metal the people need in the official position of sheriff. flia daily record daring the period of years he has lived in this county, marks him to be one of its best citiaens, law abiding, honest in hia dealings with his fellow men has established for him a reputation for integrity and a right purpose in all the walks of life. Where it has called npon him to perform its demands he has never yet been found wanting. prone*.

In the numerous articles appearing from time to time, on the progress of the home cure of tuberculosis nearly all the emphasis la made upon the purely scientific side—upon the wonders of modern medicine, of modern experiments and modern achievements. And that the scientific strides in the treatment of tuberculosis are little, short of marvelous, says the Louisville Courier-Journal, ia not to be denied. It is greatly to the credit of the medical profession that it has demonstrated in the abstract the curability of the disease, and then in the concrete has wrought the cure at the patient's own home. But there is the sentimental, the mental, the "heart" side of the revolution which, while spoken of little, is not its least important aspect. Under the home treatment it Is no longer necessary to make exiles of loved ones—to banish the tuberculosis patients to th(T distant lands of the west, there to whllo away their hours in isolation, homesickness, introspection and dread.

The nffatr is the result of a Quarrel between the men, who were employes as laborers in the beet fields of John Landon.

He is badly mistaken. They realize their position keenly and are filled with ; gratitude for the aid that has been sent them. They realize that they must I be dependent, on the charity of the | people of Michigan for some time to i come and do not want the impression ' to go abroad that they are receiving ; luxuries which they have never known before." [ Unreliable Reports. j Some most unreliable reports of ihe forest fires in central and northern Michigan have been printed. However, the Metz district on the Detroit &. Mackinac line, is excepted. The horrors of the forest fires t.h"re hardly e, ubl b<> exaggerated. The losses in t r e Soo-Mackinaw district on timber me pretty heavy. The.\ are morn tl . - heavy.

The English govetnQient's scheme for immediate dealing with t h e question of the unemployed, which la daily growing more urgent, while apparently pleasing to a great portion of the Liberal party, is condemned by the laborites as Inadequate. Premier Asqulth frankly acknowledges that it is only a temporary anodyne, promising that the government will later go into the root of the causes of unemployment. The pith of t h e government's proposal amounts to doubling the grant to the central unemployed fund, making it $1,500.00» for this year. THE MARKETS.

WKIL SYNOPSIS "Vanishing Fleets," a. story of "what iul»ht have happened." opens iti Washington .with the .united States and Japan on the verge bf war. Guy Hlllier. secretary of the British embassy, and Miss Norma Roberta, chief aide of Inventor Roberta, are Introduced as loverw. The government in much criticitied because <«f ita lack of preparation for strife. At the moat Inopportune moment Japan «1 eel a res- war. Japan taken the PhlltppiiieH without IOBM of a man. The entire country in tn a atate of turmoil be~ cause' of the 'government's indifference. Guy Hlllier starts for England with secret meea^Re and is compelled, to leave Norma Roberts, who with military officers, al»o leaveb Washington on mysterious expedition for an isolatedjiojnt ^an the Florida coast. " CHAPTER II.—continued. "I don't know what it's all about, boys," he said, relenting. "I wish I did; but I have no more knowledge of it than you have. I don't even know why Miss Roberts Is aboard; but this much I am certain of: That the men in Washington know what they are doing, aud all the rest of the world can just keep on criticising and guessing. As far as we are concerned, we are officers who have sworn to and will obey orders, even if they tell us to go to the outer edge of the flat earth." Darkness came on them before their next,stop was made, and they slowed down as they passed through the yards of a large city, felt their puffing locomotive being uncoupled, and heard the slow resonant snorts of a fresh one being driven into place. They were tired of the day's traveling, and sat In listless silence, looking through the open windows at the half deserted platforms. Newsboys were tunning here and there offering the latest editions, and they called them to the side of the coach and bought newspapers from them. The silence in the car was broken by the admiral, who had been the first purchaser. 'Well, 1*11 be blanked!" he said, angiily crumpling his paper into a ball which ho threw oh 'the floor at his teet. before he began striding up aud down the aisle. What he had road beneath flaring headlines was this: "Washington, May 28.-— The Japanese have taken the Hawaiian islands, together with the gunboats Marietta and Corbett, and are now landing troops from a large transport. The incredible and disgraceful feature of the affair is that not a gun was fired by either side, our officers contenting themselves by running up the white flag when the enemy approached. The cable operator sending the message said that he did so under the surveillance of two Japanese officers, who at the conclusion cf the message would disconnect the cable, thus putting the Islands out of communication." shown beat by a cessation of masameetings and criticisms tending only to embarrass the government in the discharge^LJtM duty, anji Jht; bringing ro a bu,cc,9»aful termination the conflict which* is onw on." > x (JoritrarT tOThe"U8iiar*fortu bt proclamation, lifts pne JWW8 ^signed not only by the prfcaident/Tbutiby all members of htt» ciiblnet, who, therefore, Jointly assumed the responsibility. At first there was an inclination tu deride the message, aud then when more sober thought prevailed a spirit of fairness dictated that the administration should have Its chance. Foreign advices" Indicated that no attack might be expected against the Shores vf the^thiited Slates proper lor even a greater length of time than ten days; hence-, the respite of seven days seemed a reasonable limit within which the government might demonstrate its, theories.. It was possible that the public temper would have remained passive for the full period, but for a somewhat unfortunate and graphic description" ol what had taken place in the Philippines, cabled by the correspondent tof a London paner, who had been on the scene, and which* read as follows: "The surrender of the Philippine islands by the United States to Japan constitutes whai is probably the most remarkable chapter 1n the history of wars. Not only W*B th«re no battle fought nor any attempt made at defense, but what is worse, or would seem so to any man with red blood in. his veins, is the humiliation imposed upon the Americans by their Intimate friendship not only with the civil officials of the islands, but with the .wen of the army and navy Us well, and is therefore In a position- to give trustworthy and detailed information or what at this time seems little less than an infamy. "It had been known for some days that orders of a most remarkable nature had been received by the govern or of the Islands ajid the commanding general. What these were, however, remained a secret until that memorable day of May. "At ten o'clock on the morning of May 27 a cloud of smoke became visibl «* on the horizon, and when within range of the glasses it was discovered that in the offing floated two cruisers of the brat class and one battle ship, Hying; the Japanese flag and cleared for action. The officer iu command of the fort at ouce communicated tbu» fact to the governor, and a cuasultftr tlon was called, to which all trtflclals of both branches of government were summoned. Inasmuch as the gravity of the situation required the absolute, concurrence of all concerned, the consultation was not confined to men of high rank, but included every commissioned officer from the army and every official of standing in the civil government. The men, wondering at this strange call, and aware that something unexpected had happened, responded to the summons and repaired to the governor's office, where they seated themselves silently, and waited for that executive to address them. He, a man grown gray in the diplomatic service of his nation, paced C H A P T E R Ml. When the Flag Came Down. The government was compelled to take action toward pacifying its own subjects immediately after the news of the Hawaiian surrender, public indignation having risen to the point where the people threatened to take matters Into their own hands. Without, a dissenting voice the journals of the country came forth with scathing editorials, occasionally asking the president whether it was the intention of the administration, to run up a white flag as soon as a fast approaching enemy neared the shores, and thus surrender the whole United States. Therefore an appeal for patience was Issued in the following terms: j "The president and his cabinet, acting for and empowered by congress | hi special .session, most urgently ask j the people i)f the United States 'o | withhold judgment on the conduct, of I the war for ;it least a week longer; ' when it will be fully demonstrated ! that the government is following a well-defined policy, which will not only - avert bloodshed, but will impose no \ disgrace upon our country. The ex- I igencien of the situation are such that ' to make public our plans would be to defeat our own ends. We therefore ask the earnest support and co-opera- j tlon cf the people of the United States by such mean3 as lie within their I nowtr. which at this time can b e ' The Flag Under Which He Had Fought So Valiantly. home government. To an impartial observer it would appear that nothing but madness could dictate such a policy. The facts of the case are as follows: 'Although trouble had been expected with Japan by every reasoning inhabitant nf the islands for many months, the government at Washington apparently made no attempt whatever to strengthen Its position, and, on the contrary, seemed rather endeavoring to weaken it. As the whole world knows, there have heen immense and costly fortifications under progress of construction in the islands for the last ten years. More than 30 days ago, by official order, work on these defenses was summarily stopped, the workmen discharged and the engineers ordered home. This was the first act. of treachery toward the Philippines. "Immediately following this incomprehensible action all war vessels in waters surrounding the islands and on the Pacific station were ordered to ports in Kiinpo, whore they render- \ou.--.*\l in what e.-i:i never 1*' anything hut neutral territory. And there they are at this moment, thousands of miles from the scene _of conflict, incapable of either offense or defense. Had the government deliberately chosen to put Itself out of touch with the whole war. It could have selected no more effective method. Your correspondent has bad the honor of an up and down the room as if loath to speak. " Gentlemen,' he began, 'it is not within my province to criticise the acts of the department which 1 represent nor to find fault with its desires, and yet I have before me at this moment the most humiliating instructions which in more than forty years of life in a responsible capacity I have ever received.' "He stood for a few moments, as if dreading to tell his auditors of his country's shame, and then with trem bllng hand opened a drawer of hi - desk and took out a file of official documents, which he held before him as he continued: " 'At the time when work was stopped on the fortifications of this harbor 1 received additional orders to the effect that in ease of :;ny overt art or warlike demonstration upon the part of Japan we were not to make any defense unless if involved »'>,-• saving of our lives, aud To surrender t^e islands in fof.o to our enemy.'

' "The officers, looking at one »U"*her. settled Into their sieata, aud in al most an instant ihe silence iu the room had grown painful. The gov ernor, still holding bis papers btfuiv him, slowly continued: " 'Fearing trickery on the part or a Xjrospective enemy. 1 doubted The an thuntigity of my instructions. 1 used a secret code which haa never gone beyond the hands of the most conH dentlal men in my department, aud to my surprise received absolute confirmation. To you of the army 1 will say that before ttds verification was received, your general,' and here he turned to bis white-haired confrere, "had been the recipient of a command from the secretary of war of the United States couched iu almost the same terms.' "At the conclusion of his speech, this fine old man sank back Into his chair with bowed head as if the dis grace of his country was his own. There was a more or less dignified discussion participated in by the older officers present; but interrupted now and then by some of the younger men, who faYored totally Ignoring the orders and defending the islands to the death. The cooler heads among them prevailed, and at last it was recognized that ther.6 was no alternative aave absolute' and ttnquaMfled autren der. "Before the meeting couW be officially dispersedr the sullen boom of a gun came heavily from the sea, reverberating through the room. The men sprang . to their feet and rushed toward the exit, knowing that war was upon them, but that their hands were tied as hopelessly as though bound with manacles of steel. "There, within range of their own heavier guns, floated a formidable fleet from Japan. Kven while their conference was in progress, cruiser after cruiser and floating forts of steel bad crept up over the horizon. The Japanese gunners were testing their range; but no damage had been done. I saw a procession of crestfallen men, going as if to a funeral, enter their fortress gates and silently gather round the great flagstaff, from'which floated a hitherto unsullied banner. A grim old man g^own gray in war anil scarred with the marks of many battles, walked to the halyards, gave them a pull aud brought fluttering to the ground the flag under which he bad fought so valiantly. A colonel of his staff took from the hands of an orderly a cloth of white, the emblem the world over of defeat with or with out honor, fastened ft into the Idle loops and pulled\if alolt. "The general, a warrior no longer, but a heart-broken old man, turned away from his colleagues, walked across the parade, and the door of his quarters closed ui>on him. Several other members of his staff did like wise, and still others stood silent on the ramparts, watching the outcome of this event. The ships ceased firing, mid, as if perplexed by this unwarranted outcome, seemed to be com mimical ing with each other, dexter ously wigwagging signal after signal. A torpedo boat destroyer slowly sepa rated itself from the flotilla and came suspiciously nosing its way toward the land, winding is and on? as if fearing floating mines or sunken engines of destruction. "As it neared the shore, it was seen that on its black deck stood the admiral of the fleet, together with his staff. They were met at the landing by a deputation of officers, both civil and military, who escorted them to the fort No one can depict the «xpreasions. half surprise and half inquiry, which overspread the countenances of this insignificant invading force. A party of less than ten men without arms was actually accomplishing the most remarkable con quest in all history. • At the entrance to this city of masonry and steel, equipped with silent monsters of warfare, embodyirg all the latest and most formidable instruments of offense and defense, built to withstand the onslaught of the combined navies and armies of the world, stood the sullen, shamefaced officers of the vanquished garrison, the vriif of their full dress uniforms untarnished by powder or smoke, and shining garishly in a midday KU:I There, drawn up in line, were m m win) would have fought to death aiv; .-:o:ie exultantly out into another worlo rather than lure the disgrace which luvl been heaped upon rheni by an nu wo'-rhy eiirpie of superiors in ofllce.

A great scientist has said we can put off "old age" if we can only nourish the body properly. To do this the right kind of food, of course, is necessary. The body manufactures poisons in the stomach and Intestines from certain kinds of food stuffs and unless sufficient of the right kind is used, the injurious elements overcome the good. "My grandmother, 71 years old," writes a N. Y. lady, "had been an invalid for 18 years from what was called consumption of the stomach and bowels. The doctor had given her up to die. "I saw so much about Grape-Nuts that I persuaded Grandmother to try It. She could not. keep anything on her stomach for more than a few minute^. "She began Grape-Nuts with only a teaspoonful. As that did not distress her and as she could retain it, she took a little more until she could take all of 4 teispoonfuls at a meal. "Then she began to gain ami grow sfron;: ;;nd her trouble in the stomach was gone entirety. She got to enjoy ireo:l healih for one so old and w>» know Grape-Nuts saved her life. " The doctor was astonished that instead i f dying she got well, and without a drop of medicine after she began the Grape-Nuts." "There's a Reason." Name given by Postum Co., Hattle Creek, Mich.

I have fo and it a good plan to save h>y own vegetable seed. One not only saves many pennies, .but. knows just w h a t he is planting. The finest choice tomatoes, cucumbers, etc., aro saved for seed. Seed cucumbers growing n e a r fhe roots produce better and shed JCSR of their blossoms. I never pick a bean to use off of hills kept, for xeeci «md those beans growing farthest fro<\i tho main vines are rejected. The result is beans from ihe roots to the tip e n d s dff the vines. Cabbage,, beets, radishes, turnips, etc., are planted out early in spring to produce seed and t h e lops are staked to prevent falling to tlK» ground. O I U N u P U B L I C R O A D S . Proving One of the Bent Moans oi Producing a Diistkss Highway. The application of crude oil to dirt roads has been experimented with in several slates and it is uuw agreed that it affords one o1 the pest uicttus of producing a solids dusjtles* highway that will uot break- through iu wet weather. Where the roads are very aandy, au application Ht heavy loam or clay i.s necessary, .,';'. <• The road is graded and welj ftrined, belug first pluwed and pdlve/Iiea to * deytj pf four ur five inufoufr.^f^I is applied with a sprinkler and a WRStow follows the sprinkler to mix the soil and oil., lu tests in Kansas, says the Farm and Home, heavy oiling was given about October 1 to the amount of about orle gallon for each square yard. The road was harrowed after the sprinkler and a week later a 12-tou steam roller w .s run over the road several times, making it thoroughly firm. After being closed one week, the road was opened to all kinds of heavy traffic and proved to be firm but not dusty. Fast horses did not tear up the soil with their shoes. This road was not affected by winter freezing, the coating of oil keeping the road dry and preventing heaving by frost. The following June the surface, on becoming dry, carried a light coat of dust which required one-half gallon of oil per square yard to thoroughly settle. The road stood heavy traffic during the entire season and was practically free from dust. Light applica tipns of oil after merely grading up a road with the scraper and later rolling It down,heavily have given excellent results, the most satisfactory features being that these roads were almost entirely'dustless. The oil used on the tests in Kansas cost one and one-half cents per gallon at the refinery or three cents when applied. The cost of grading and oiling the road varied from |500 to $1,300 per mile, according to distance from shipping point, cost of labor, etc. SEEKT E; MEET DISASTER F I V E H A R V A R D 8 T U D E N T 8 N E A R D E A T H I N W E S T I N D I A N H U R R I C A N E .

The Harvard men rescued are O. H Scull. Boston; R. A. Derby, New York; S. H. Noyes, Newport, H. I.; Hayder Richardson. New York, aud S. S. Boyl ston, Baltimore. The students had organized the Southern Exploration Company wltfc the belief that they had located a sunken Spanish ship containing cheat* of gold and treasure. They had a pilot with them who was to And the place In the West Indies where th€ ship went down or he was not to get any pay. They chartered the Mayfiow er and converted her into a schooner with auxiliary power. Into her hold they stored dynamite, diving suits and stores for a long cruise. Until Thursday night they encountered fair weather and then they ran Into the hurricane. The Mayflower's mast and rigging were carried away, and she was a hopeless derelict. The steamer Advance of the Panama railroad line approached Saturday morning, but was unable to effect a rescue. The steamship Kan next appeared and signaled"she would stand by to the end.

Capt. Harding, after lifelong experience at sea, declares that the storm and the experiences it. brought, those in the party were the most, harrowing he has ever known. Capt. Harding's statement gives only a faint idea of what he and those with him went through. It merely suggests the agonies of suspense as the Advance approached, tried to help, failed signally, and finally faded from the view of those on the little yacht. •Again, when the Ran came upon the scene it approached as near the Mayflower as it dared, but try as her crew would they could neither launch a boat nor get. a line to the yacht. Time after time attempts were made only to fail. But the Ran stood by and at least encouraged those on the Mayflower by the presence of other human beings.

St, Louis.—Lost in the Sierra Madre mountains near El Paso, Tex., for nearly two days, J. M. Brown of St. Louis and his sister finally found shelter and aid when they were famished and in a state of collapse, News of their predicament was received hero by telegraph. Mr. and Mlas Brown stopped at El Paso on the way from Los Angeles to their home here, intending to spend Sunday in the mountains. They engaged a Mexican guide and started out early Sunday for a day of mountain climbing. The guide proved to be a stranger in the mountains. Mr. and Miss Brown wandered about and soon found themselves in a deep canyon, the sides so rugged that they could not climb out. Their quest for an exit continued Sunday night, and all day Monday, and after dark they attained a high point and could discern the lights of Juarez, Mexico, and El Paso. They walked toward the lights of Juarez and near daylight reached a herder's hut, along the trail. "Several months ago, ray little boy began to break out. with itching sores.

A Wp»y cowboy who'had betm sampling Pik«y'B hardware vaulted' to the back of a wolflah-looking eayuae, yelled a few times in hearty Montana faiihibn, and then swung his riata at the chimney. AB the nooue fell fair about the «tach of bricttB he dug slurs' into th* bides of his mount and made a run UJWJ the tape, The chimney came down with a crash; the fire was out; the fate of yBrfck^ville was written. That is wtiy the town does not appear upo^n any map. But if evev you have ridden over the Northern Pacific* »y<ru can probably recall a long arid "narrow valley to the north as you piUied out of the Bad Lands of Dakota^. into the Bad Lands of Montana. That is where Brickville stood. The soil al> about is hard and dry and red, and there is no verdure. Not anywhere In Bight is there a tree. The Bide hillB are Beamed with black strata, and the rains have carried stains from theso and streaked the valley with them on both sides of the muddy little stream which winds away to the Honth. The black strata are seama of bituminous coal, and it was in mining this coal that the KrickvlllianB made their living. There is still pay in these streaks, but the people who worked them have drifted away, and on the nite of the town prairie dogs and coyotes and rattlesnakes hold annual conventions which never adjourn. If any plage ever fully Justified its name, that place was Brickville. At the height of its prosperity it had, ex elusive of sheds and stables, 87 onestory buildings, including tJie,, railroad station,-'the saloon and the topsorial parlor, and every one of them was of brick—even t he sheds. There were optimists who looked forward to a brick- • court-house and a brick jail, and but for the fire in Pikey McGinn's chimney these aspirations might have been realised. Pierre Succotash played perhaps the most prominent part in Hriekville's destruction. Pierre was u French-Canadian, whose rear name had come in to collision with Hriekville's sense of propriety, and some of its letters wore dislocated by the shock. He had been gold mining in British Columbia, and no one had inquired very closely into the reason of his coming from a gold to a coal camp; it would hare established an uncomforlable precedent. But he went nosing about the wreck of that chimney, as he went nosing into everything that, happened in town; and Fred Ritchie, who conducted "the tonsorial parlor," which was across the street from McGinn's, «aw him suddenly dart in and pick up a broken brick. Now Fred and Succotash had said some unpleasant things to each other once upon a time, and Fred, believing that Pierre was courting trouble, promptly ran in tor his gun; but when he came out Succotash was no where tP be seen. Next morning Pikey femnd that somo one had' carried off nearly half of his chimney;bricks, and he promptly declared it-to be the work of Slant eye«rjM(;<?afferty( hiB hated; rival in the harqware buainesg. Mac denied ihis In vigorous language, and a gunplay was imminent when the whisky agent n ^ p e i t ^ a t & t i g and announced a reddfcilon *in'*atet-by the barrel; and thWj^£h>y h a i a drink, and ordered h«fi* #x btrre* teach, and the hatchet was burled. But war was on hotter than ever next day, for the remainder of Pikey's loose brinks had disappeared in the night. Pikey ewore that Slant eye was planning a cheap extension to his gin mill, and Mac retorted that he would be a fool indeed tn go around picking up hoodoos that had fallen from his rival's leaky roof,. Then each g«t a shotgun and stood out in front of his saloon waiting for th«» other t<» come along. And the ShurUtory lJub. Co.) ond lime to declanj a truce, and ihou the town breathed easier and drank ofteuer. A week later Succotash was a passwnger on a westbound, express with a ticket io Gleudive in his hat baud. And the next east-bound fiwi^ht brought in a very scarce article— some lumber—and a heavy iron roll er marked with his name. On his return . ho installed the roller \ m the brick shack where he slept and put a big padlock 4>D the door. What be did in that place was the towu mystery. But he was flush of money, anu oi\tf day he caused a sensation. He became the owtier of a saloon,'TuYYJngbu ught out Pikey McGinn***!akiug bar, stock, goodwill, and building. Then, tft^.tbe .jpftater. surprise of Brickvjilejne promptly sold to Pikey's hated 7iwrto3veryihiug but the buildi n g IHkey'awojre^it was alt a put-up job, and left town in disgust. Succo tasli said it1 "Vfsis^'hecauae he intended to tear down ihe old house and put up a better tme^, ^And tear down the old place he did, and he carted the bricks away to his mystery shed-—to store them there until he was ready to build, he said. But the only thing that. Pierre built at that time was a wooden water trough, leading from his well to the brick shed. Most of the day and all of the night he locked himself in that shed with his secret. Those who passed in the rear of the place declared that they could hear him grinding something, and because of a pool of red water which had accumulated near the shed they thought, it must be the bricks. Now, Fred Ritchie was one of those who regarded Pinrre's conduct as most suspicious. He gave a good deal of thought to the mystery of the shed and the tearing down of McGinn's sa loon, and finally he .recalled having seen Succotash grab thai piece of brick and make off with it. Then it occurred to him also that it was Pierre who had caused all the trouble between Pikey and Slanteye by steal ing the chimney. And one day when Succotash was down in town buyi g provisions Fred sneaked out the back way of his shop with a bit aud stock and bored a hole in the mortar between the bricks of Pierre's shed to discover what his secret might be. As Pierre worked that night Fred had his eye glued to this hole and noted what he was doing. Next morning his neighbors were surprised at finding that Ritchie's chimney had fallen during the night, and they were astonished to see Fred carrying the bricks into his barber One of his customers was let into the secret, and another chimney fell.

The secret was \\ secret JIO longer. Succotash had touud gold in the piece of brick that Ritchie had seen him dart forward to pick up, and he hud ! found more in the bricks he had stolj eui franf fi,k£y. ..With the'ptoceedfc he | had set up au arasira in the shed, and in tills he was grinding gold out of ihe bricks of Pikey'a dismantled saloojh Ritchie aud, the others found scales and grains arid sack's of gold. When the chimney 'bl'tcltB had been ground up the wall bricks followed, and in a short space of time BriekviHe was a town <>f tents again. Then it was announced suddenly that Succotash and Ritchie had patched up their trouble and that Pierre had sold hjs arastra to Fred. Tnls was followed by Pierre's departure from town. "He has made his pile," the Brickvillians said to one another. The coal pits had been abandoned for this new method of gold mining, and there wasn't a whole brick building in the place when a freight brakeman one day brought a startling piece of news into the town. Succotash had bought a clay bank in Basin, and a brickyard as well; and he had astonished the good people of that nook in the mountains by converting this clayhank into a gold mine and this brickyard , into a mill in which to treat his rich clay, for the gold could not be freed by ordinary process of placer washing. Then Brickville collectively kicked itself for not having thought to trace out this brickyard before the man from Canada; and the Brickvillians folded their tents and went scurrying away to the mountains to search there for other claybanks that were studded with nuggets of gold. And so it was that the fire in Pikey McGinn's chimney happened to destroy the town.

It is securely locked and only the attendant can open-it to release the animal. This is easily done bysimplylifting the steel loop that connects the pivoted ba;r. ; The illustration on the right shows the Stanchion in place, locked. T h e one on the left shows the Stanchion open, standing and held firmly in position by steel guide straps, and it is impossible for the animal to t u r n it, and no trouble is experienced by animal putting its head in the stanchion. The stanchion is made of the best quality of hard wood, nicely finished; is made 4 ft. high, with 6]/2 inch space between the upright bars, and can be adjusted very easily by taking out a bolt and make the space Sy£ inches, so t h a t it can be used for young stock or you ran' rfdjust the space wider for 1% inches or 8 inches which would be suitable for almost any size cattle.

He should be Re-elected by a large majority. Forjudge of Probate, A. A. Montague It has been our pleasure, both before and after the primaries, to endorse the candidacy of Mr. A. A. Montague for J u d g e of Probate and we feel that our course has been a proper one in view of the excellent service he has rendered the County in that capacity during his first term. He has been fearless in making bis dicisious, being guided only by a desire to render exact justice; he has been faithful in attending to the various details connected with each case and in giving his undivided time and energy to the business of hie Court. We urge upon each elector the advisability of giving Mr. Montague a second term aud thus show their appreciation of his services. See what the papers say about him on page 4. Wm. P. VanWinkle. For Judge of Probate. A Judge of Probate is elected for a term of four years, other county officers are elected for a term of two years only. With the two year term offices, it has usually been the rule to give them the nomination for a second term and in a great many instances the nomination has resulted in an election to a second term. T h e one term of four years for a J u d g e of Probate in this county has always been considered the same as two terms in the other county offices. The one term rule for J u d g e of Probate iu this county lias been strictly adhered to and no man has ever been elected to that office a second time. There have been two notable instances in which an attempt has been made to change ti-at rule, but the result in both initances show that the people of the county did not think it wise to or not they desire to perserve this n¥ established precideut. In order that there may be no misunderstanding as to the position of the candidate on the Democratic ticket for this office, he now here desires to say that if elected he will not be a candidate nor accept a second term under any circumstances. It has been suggested that Mr. VanWinkle is too busy a man for the performance of the duties of this very important office, and for the purpose of meeting and refuting any such argument or suggestion, Mr. Van Winkle desires to say once for all, that when he accepted this nomination he did so with the expectation of giving to it his best personal attention and supervision if elected, aud he now pledges his word to all the people, that if elected he will give to the faithful performance of the duties of this office his constant and personal attention. Mr. VanWinkle submits to the people of Livingston County for their consideration that he if worthy and well qualified to perform iu an acceptable manner the dut- Lnst Sunday Rev.

The attendance both morning and evening was very large. We are glad the people feel that they cannot afford to miss teese sermons. You are most cordially invited to all the services of this church. On account of the other entertainments on Friday evening the Hallowe'en social at Rev. Gates' has been postponed. M. E. Church Notes. Sunday was a tim day and people improved it by coming to chnrch, there being good audiences morning and evening. There ia no need of saying there was a good Rermon as the pastor does not give any thing else. At the close of the sermon the Lords sapper was admistered. There were 91 who remained to Sunday school and the collection amounted to $1.61. Next Sunday will be ob.^rved a* Sunday school day. The paster will preach on that line in the morning and there will be a little chancre from the regular work during Sunday school hour which will take the form of promotional exercises. Let everyone come out and enjoy the day with the Sunday School. If you are not a member of some school you are invited to come with us. 1 In that contest in 1904 between J u d g e Stowe and Mr. Montague for election much was said concerning thin time honored custom of one term only for this office. The Livingston Republican, the party organ of the county, argued against a second term and in favor of perserving the long established rule. In the issue of that paper under date of October 12, 1904, appeared the following: " O N E T E R M o r FOUR YKARS HAS BECOME-THK ESTABLISHED RULE IN THIS COUNTY FOR PROBATE J I ; D < ; K . " In the issue of the Livingston Republican under date of October 19, 1904, appeared the following: " P \ l R THK LAST FIFTY YEARS IT HAS BEEN THK KSTABMSHKI) PRACTICE IN LIVINGSTON COUNTY TO HIVE A J U D G E OF PROBATK A TERM OF FOUR YEARS AOTJ THEN I'ASS IT ON. T H A T CUSTOM THAT HAS RKKN IN VON UK SO MANY YEARS AND HAS HKCOMKSOWRU ESTABLISHED MIGHT i BE WELL TO CONTINUE." I The same paper in its iasue of October 2fi, 1904, said: " T H E N TOO P U R I N O T H E LAST F I F T Y YEARS OR MORE IT HAH BKCOME THE SETTLED PRACTICE IN THIS COUNTY TO <»IVE A PRORATE J U D O K FOUR Y E A R S SERTHE SAME AS TWO TREKS IN ANY OFFICE, AND THEN 4 Business Pointers. t roa IAUI. 2 year old durharn heifer due to calve in February, 1909. 44tt J. j , Teeple. t'or Sale.

Politicians are making their last grand stand this week as before another issue of the Dispatch the battle will be fought. We do not believe as some claim to, that if tbis.or that one is elected the whole country will go to the dogs, bat we do believe that after the smoke of the campaign is over the wheels will tarn as heretofore.

" 'Am I right, sir,' he said, 'In con _*troing that white flag you raised a* a ^ sign of truce? Aad if that is BO, I should like to be informed as to why a t the same time you lowered the United States flag from the peak?' "The general, choked with mortification, hesitated for a moment, an<t then found himself unable to express his relinquishment in words. He slowly withdrew his sword from its belt hooks, and. fcehi it, hilt -formost, tc* ward the admiral, "who seemed unable to realize that it was tendered in s i r render. There was a moment's silence. In which he looked down a t that trusty old blade of steel, never before dishonored by a conqueror's hand. He glanced inquiringly at his fellow countrymen, and then at the others, as If questioning $4<rtr sanity,. "T regret to say, sir,* the general answered, 'that the flag was Wised in Surrender not only of this fortfltcatfoa, but of all military forces on the islands.' ' T h e admiral gave a quick start of surprise and Jubilation as the significance of -. this unexpected action •>dawned upon him. "•" 'The total surrender of the Phil ipbtnes?' he questioned, as if It was beyond comprehension that without further effort this island kingdom of the sea was tranquilly to be turned over to the first enemy who battered 11 challenge on its gates. "The general, beyond words, nodded in confirmation. In a few quickly spoken sentences the admiral translated the details of the conversation TO his compatriots. "Goaded by the sneers and satirical exclamations with which this was Kreeted, the general broke into a sudden blaze of wrath, shook a clenched list under the admiral's very nose, and in white heat exclaimed: 'Yes, it conies easy; but it's no fault of mine? I'm obeying orders. If I had my way I'd have seen you in hell before this happened. I would, so help me God!' "As a signal to the waiting fleet, they ran aloft the rising sun emblem of Japan, while the discomfited officers of the United States retired to the barracks for the almost hopeless attempt of explaining the situation to the puzzled garrison. These were soldier like, quick moving, wiry men from the west, proud of their country and their crops, and were of the kind that could not understand dishonor through mere obedience to higher orders. They stormed and swore, and for a time It seemed that mutiny would spread throughout the fortress, man tne great guns, tear down the flag of Japan and send hurtling masses of defiant steel out tnto the ranks of that force which had come upon them in a night and won an unearned victory. But they, too, were creatures of discipline, and in the end reluctantly accepted fate. "The great armada slowly gathered way and crept forward almost beneath the towering walls of the silent forts. Hoat after boat brought its load of marines ashore and discharged them on ground which in other wars? had boon stained with the blood of valorous men. Here on these beaches had stepped the armies of old Spain, coming as pioneers to battle with sav age foemen. In former years the wafers of this bay on another day in Way had floated the vessels of brave Dewey's fleet, had rocked and quivered beneath, thje impact of hja Msuna<f aud witnessed thq,jalbiug of bis victorious flag over the, smoldering ramparts.

C H A P T E R IV. The Harness of War. A breath of summer swept over the laud, giving.promise of wealth or bloom aud prodigality of harvest; but the plow stood idle and mated in the waiting fleldb, the meadowa went unshorn, aud the cropa, la which lay the riches of peace, uuplanted. Everywhere wat> the growiug din of anarchy aud the stern claugor of war. A people who had never tamely bowed a head beneath a yoke, nor rebelled at Juat ruling, found themselves diatraught in the whirling current of unreasonable tides which carried them out to they knew not what. A tamo yielding of territory over which, their flag had ooce flown, an equally paaaive surrender of islands which had come to them of their own volition, seeking In the spread of the eagle's wings the shadows of security, and„ last of all, as a crowning climax of folly, the sending of warships to neutral portal From east to weat, aa the oceans run, from the border line of the north to that of the south, there awept over the greaj Waiting nation a call to arms. Na/9am built by mortal man could have stemmed t h a t rising ttdfig^f Indignation save the one that was erected by the administration In the hours ot its stress. News of it came unheralded as had all the ominous stories preceding it. Even a t the moment when an overthrow of the governing pojwfr* at Washington seemed imminent, there flashed across the wires from governor to governor the quick and insistent demand for fighting men. In every armory was heard the resounding clash of rifles. A hundred thou sand men, drilled for the emergencies of a country's need, sprang to their weapons like tensely strung warriors of old awaiting the pretor's command to charge. A country, which through days of defeat had seemingly slept, sprang into the harness of strife, r.s if electrified by the God of Battles. Simultaneously with the ordering out of all National Guardsmen and i further; call for volunteers, which re ceived instant response, every railway traversing^the"- country was requisi tioned by the war department. Yet, in all this turmoil the destination of this suddenly mobilized and splendidly powerful array remained a. secret. In vain the press of the country and its most influential citizens de manded knowledge; but not till the day when from all directions swarms of armed men sallied forth, was this information given. And as if blackened by a scourge of locusts, the Canadas awakened one morning to find that along 11,000 miles of border land were spread a line ot soldiers, the most singular line of repulse ever Btretched between nations. It. was one of excommunication. Not even the commanding officers as they took their stations knew th* whys or wherefores of this most remarkable move, although their instructions were of the simplest, and were that under no circumstance* were there to be acts of unfriendliness nor, even under provocation, move ments of aggression. They were to stand as an insurmountable barrier hetween the United States and the dominion, prohibiting traffic, passage, and communication, and nothing more. No man might cross the border, and wives, which in days of peace carried from one country to another the news of the day, were cut and torn from their poles as if no further word might ever be transmitted through them. Nor was this all. Wherever a cable touched on all the outer edges of this great land might be found soldiers in charge. Wireless telegraph stations were abruptly closed, prohibiting the use even of the air itself. Procla mations were issued that instructions had been given for the perforation of any airships attempting outside communication, and the penalty of instant death was threatened any aeronaut who disobeyed this command. From every seaport vessels of all nations, friendly or unfriendly, were summarily excluded. Protests from captains and from companies were ignored. The United States was suddenly blockading not only its own means of communication, but sealing its ports as well. No message might be carried In or out, and, as if fearing also for its southern border line, the soldiers ot the regular army were placed there. The vessels of the navy which were in the home waters of the Atlantic were put. on patrol duty, j steaming up and down the eastern < coast with the regularity of policemen on their beats. To the world at large the United States of America might never have been. The fabled Atlantis of old could have disappeared no more completely nor been cut off more effectually from intercourse with outside mankind than was the great ( American nation. j Whatever criticism aud surprise had been caused among other powers by the abandonment of the Philippines aud the Hawaiian islands was outdoue by this latest move. Never be fore in thv world's history had 4 nation enforced complete hwjUtiou upon iUJelt, withdrawing within its shell a* dues a turtle w ^ e q a a a a i j e d . ^ .Hither v> it bad been t h e CU#£OEU .0! a pey*. pie attacked to maintain an outward seeming of uninterrupted commerce aud unimpeded communication, No modern government had y*n had the temerity to ahut its ports to friendly nations, acorn Intercourse with tkarni, and trust 10 il# pwi* reaourcoa for support and maintenance^ Protects from friendly powers were unheeded or unavailing, because after a Sew days there was.no possibility of con veying such remonatruuee to the of fk-iala at Washington. In the capital itself representatives of foreign nations, hearing of this embargo on the porta, stood upon their rights and demanded either their dianjjtaal or the free aud uninterrupted g&aaage of their communications. Some of the more importunate ones were politely told that they might take their departure at any time they deemed fit; but were given warning that it must be within 48 houra or they would not be permitted to pass the border line. These discomfited diplomats either hastened to the aeareat harbor, embarking upon t h e last steamer leaving, or ehotfe to remain within t h e country. The maritime nation* of Europe, aghaat at what they termed the insolence of the United States, discusses! means of bringing her to book and compelling her to open her roadsteads; but found a lack of unanimity a s W method. Great Britain, jealous of Germany, but fearing"*Tt-%wJJt on slaught from the kaiser's realmvlfeeltated to take the initiative and thus leave her own coasts exposed to attack. France, with the memory of an earlier war, remained passive. Russia, smarting under the recollection of her own defeat, refused to take any steps which directly or Indirectly might aid Japan. And the smaller nations awaited a leader. England was placed in the most peculiar and trying position of all. The They Ran Aloft the Rising Sun Emblem of Japan. last official utterance of the United States to a foreign power had been to her, in the positive assertion that, come what might, she of all nations need have no fear of being embroiled, and that, under no circumstances need she apprehend war with America. The English ambassador, who was one of the last to take timely advantage of his opportunity and seek a temporary residence in Montreal, cabled his country n f ran It admissior that the policy of the United States was completely beyond his comprehension, and that whatever of the situation might be known from persona) observation would be explained by his secretary, Guy Hllller, due at any moment, in London. The ears of Europe were therefore open for such commit nications as might be imparted by this young man, who for the moment became of paramount importance. Thus it was that Hilller, arriving at the Liverpool docks, found himRelf the center of all interest. A swarm or newspaper correspondents, more or less distinguished in their profession, sought, interviews; but, warned in ad* vance by wireleea telegraph, he de clined all conversation. The wharf was black with people, who anxiously craned their necks to catch sight of the man who was expected to elucidate the greatest mystery of the age. A guard of constables formed a hollow square round him and forced their war up the long, tunnel-like shed leading to the train which was to convey him to London. When he had gained his seat in .r compartment reserved for his use, an-' the train whirled away past neatlywalled farms, prosperous villages and great, cities, he wondered at the strange trend of events which had thrown him so prominently into the foreground. He smiled in irony as he reviewed his own actual knowledge of the situation, and realized how little he had in the way of information in comparison with what he was expected to divulge. » " ' At Euaton stiHion'be was0 e a c o n e ^ to a carriage, <iud whlb^ed-a suit nqiw oJLaurijriae aa he recognized uu the pdfimi t the prime minister's coat or artn|. Plfciaiy Me was to be subjected trT What 'in AlAerica he- had heard called the Third Degree.' Surreptitious node were interchanged by a crowd of loungers, and such comments as "That's hiuU" and " E'a the bloke w'ata goiu to tell us abaout It!" floated to him aw the footman slammed the door behind, mounted the box aud whipped the team into a gallop. H e was ushered into the sacred pre cincta ot the prime minister's private chamber, and found awaiting not only that Important person but the foreign secretary, and a lord of the admiralty as wail. The ponderously #ealed packet from hia ambassador waa torn open aud read aloud. It contained the following startling statement from his perturbed and irate superior: "1 have the honor to inform your lordship that I am In a country evidently inhabited by maniacs. 1 have painstakingly sought a logical explanation tor the acts of this government, aud frankly admit that I am unable to understand either its attitude toward hia majeaty'a government, ita proposed plan of campaign, or what the effect of this war will be upon other nations i have been persiatently refused any intimation as to what has taken place or is Intended. In a^ personal inter view wKh . Mr*ekHAllency, the president of the United States, I have been positively informed t h a t his country will under no circumstances permit any demonstration against Great Britain, but that it may become necessary to suspend intercourse for a time. I cannot tell what is meant by this, nor would he give me further information. The attitude of the administration, backed 5 ¾ b y congress, ia that of supreme e ^ t i s n i and self-sufficiency, despite the Jp^qg^ion taken by the people and the preijs, as shown In newspapers which are sent herewith. In view of the uncertainty of the stiuation, the enigma presented by the United States government's attitude, and the threat that within 48 hours all exchange of communication wiji be suspended, 1 deem it wise to suggest that his majesty hold himself in readiness to make an .overpowering naval demonstration in these or Canadian waters, if need should arise. I am sending this by my secretary, who can answer any questions of a more pertinent nature as well as I could." The letter, written in the crabbed hand of the ambassador, was slowly read aloud, those present straining their hearing that no word might be lost, and at its conclusion they sat dumbfounded. ,'You were there, 1 believe," said the prime minister, slowly swinging back and torch in his swivel chair, and addressing the secretary, "when the news of the surrender of the Philippines was received?" "Yes, your lordship." 'What excuse had the government to make, for such unwarranted action?" "None whatever." "Do you mean to say thai they suffered without protest or defense the surrender of a fortification which coat millions of pounds, was adequately equipped and able to repel successfully the attack of such a fleet as Japan sent against it?" "Yes, they even accepted it C9m plicently." From round the room came murmurs of amazement, while the rustle of newspapers showed the anxiety of those present tn glean what information they could be perusal. Losing their phlegmatic air of self possession and casting official dignity to the winds they bombarded Hillier with questions, which in the main he was unable to answer. The voice of the stately lord of the admiralty rose above the others in a sudden, insistent petulant question. "Do you know anything else worth while?" he asked.

(TO BE CONTINUED.) A Tragedy in Arabia. Once a a old Arab out of atone carved a scarab, aa a sort of good luck charm to wear. It was so artistic, such a bug realistic, that the sight of it gave him a scare—he thought he had got a case of "mania au potu" from the effects of a night before's tear.

"After an attack of rheumatism, running sores broke out on my husband's legs, from below the knees to the ankles. There a r e no words t o tell all the discomforts and great suffering he had to endure night and day. He used every kind of remedy and three physici&nj treated him, one after the other, without any good results whatever. One day I ordered some Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment, and Cuticura Resolvent. He began to use them and in three weeks all the sores were died up. The burning fire shopped, and the pains became bearable. After three months he was quite well.

"Why, because—how stupid of you— the coin might decide the wrottg way." It was his turn to pause He waa of a scientific turn of mind and had a fancy for paradoxes, but here was one that baffled him. "I nave it," he said finally. "Well toes tbe coin, and rf it falls the wrong way you are to have the privilege of deciding the right way." She neither assented ner dissented, and, taking a quarter from his pocket, he said: "I choose this eminently respectable head with a serious face, a wreath and the motto, 'In God We Trust' I'm perfectly willing to trust in God." "You said that just aa if you had no confidence whatever In me." "You, not being able to choose between two lovers, are not to be relied on by either.

"He has won," he said coolly, putting the piece In his pocket "Permit me to congratulate you." "On what?" "On getting a spread eagle husband who will love you when you are good and stick arrows into you when you are bad and clothe you with silks or satins."

He turned his back deliberately upon Collins, who edged his way toward • him, watching.hjni with sharp but furtive eyes. .,, A swift hand shot toward the roll of bills, but Lyman was.ready for it. His revolver flashed out as he whirled around and faced the dodging Collins; the hand with the bills was crammed safely in his pocket. "Look out in front!" he yelled, leveling the weapon at Collins' head, and a score of men la the line of his aim til he flighted his friend and co^part- «er, Mr. #C6HJna.1an& retired wltn him, from the range of inquisitive ears.

Theae were versatile gentlemen, and if one vocation proved irkBome or unhealthful from the legal point of view, they itmid always pass on to another. They found it convenient to change their occupation frequently, as well as their ipost office address; it diverted the official mind, and kept it guessing. Mr. Collins found his partner in a marvclously short time; ho was used in it. lie shook his head a trifle, which meant, that their immediate future was not of an encouraging nature. Mr. Lyman thrust out. his under lip in token of his displeasure, as they edged away from their nearest neighbors. "If we run for it. when the crowd #oes out to the track, there'll be a -million smart. Alecks ready to help «m catch us," he mused discontentedly. '"I think they mean to catch us Tiere if they can, or track us down to a good place and nab us. But they don't know that we're onto 'em. We'll fool cm. We might raise a big row, Mickey, and light out in the racket, We'll stampede the crowd, that's it!" Mr. Lyman radiated good nature jigaln, as he thought, of the mischief at his command.

He wriggled swiftly away, lost himself in the thickest of the crowd »nd managed to get his brown derby knocked off. When he came up from searching for It.

He was now ready for business, . an-1 if there were any investigating jammed against those In front. . Only 20, certainly no more, but the mischief iras done. It was marvelous b»w slight a thing may set a great crowd In motion. Up at the front Brownley turned In surprise as he heard a roar behind him. Four thousand men, not more thaa 20 of whom knew the cause for their flight were bearing down on him In a howling, fear-atrfdran wot>» sweeping toward tho rear exits. The pool room was not as lavishly provided with exits as the more modern structure*, and a mob there was a.thin* to flee from.

A pain shot through Brownley's foot, but he rolled swiftly to one side, just as the pushing, struggling mass poured out on the ground. It was over in three minutes, and men rushed from all sides to disentangle the heaped-up mass of humanity. Many picked themselves up and limped off, disheveled and cursing, but. some had to he lifted carefully, with broken ribs and legs, and bleeding faceH, and above and around there was a babel of excited questions. Rolls of money had disappeared in the rush, watches were lost and hats gone, but no one knew what, had happened. Later, some of the few who had seen it. told how align* a mattar had started a great stampede, and .1. Brownley swore to himself as he went through the streets in an ambulance, with a leg and ankle»ihat would lay him up for weeks to tonne,, qojf y.QOO bruises distributed ffcparuaify over his person, but Messrs. WUlJam Lyman and M. Collins were far" away, speeding through the land in a Pullman car and drinking cool drinks. Even J. Brownley and his exasperated aids did not guess that they had done this thing. "It was a great game," t.lghed Mr. Collins, contentedly, tapping his glass with his finger and noting with dreamy satisfaction that their nearest fellow-traveler waa three chairs away. "It was the slickest thing I've seen this season, and there was lots of money dropped or pinched in the shuffle I went in with the crowd, Billy, and T made some fair pickings myself."

Australian aborigines fear crocodiles but have no fear of sharks. The author of 'Confessions of a Beachcomber" says: "They take every care to avoid crocodiles, exercising great caution and circumspection when crossing Inlets and creeks. . . Their indifference to sharks is founded on the belief that those which inhabit shallow water among the islands never attack a living man. And so they continue to think, notwithstanding a tragic incident like the following, which. Indeed, they attributed to a debil-debir and not a shark at all: The, captain of a beche-de-mer cutter was paddling in a dingey along the edge of a detached reef not many miles from Dunk island, where several of his boya were swimming and diving. Suddenly one of them waa seized and so terribly mutilated that he died in a few minutes. Although the captain was within eight or ten feet of the boy and three of-his mates were not more than a few yards oft . . no one saw a shark or any other rl»h capable of inflicting such injuries as have caused the death of Jimmy' nor was there any disturbance on the surface of the wa,ter." Peril of a New Dance. if the young people allow this barn dance, crasq to grow," remarked a. well-known local architect, "buildings here will have to be erected much move substantial than heretofore—that Is, all building* such an private homes or clubs where dancing is carried on. There is a Jump and a awing about barn dances that will cause swaying of the beams in even the moBt substantial frame houses. "With a whole crowd on the floor at once and skipping up and down on the floor right together, with the music, you can imagine what might happen. You know how necessary it is sometimes for a company of soldiers to break step when crossing a bridge. If this dance continues popular, It may be necessary for some of the dancers to keep out of step with the music. I know of one dance out at the Colonial club last season at which the barn dance numbers had to be stopped, the buildings swayed so noticeably."—Cleveland Plain Dealer. It U Not Solved as Easily as Some Farmer* Suppoee. - The nitrogen problem is solvable, but not solved so «uslly a s aotne people suppose. One speaker at a farmers" institute said: "A rotation including sufficient clover or other legumes will solve the nitrogen part of the fertility problem for us." This statement does not cover the whole situation, by any means, declares Farmers" Review. How can a rotation with legumes settle the nitrogen question when the legumes canhot be made to grow in the first place? And often, even when they do grow well, it is several years before nodules develop oil the roots, without which nodules no increase in nitrogen uan be made. It very often happens that the cheap^ est way to supply nitrogen is to buy it, even at 15 cents a pound. It takes several years to get nitrogen from the air by the help of legumln oua plants, even under the best condi tlons; that is, to get enough of it tt count for much. The process of gathering nitrogen from the air Is one of growth and de cay. A soil deficient in nitrogen can not produce the plants desired, and U they are produced they will be so pmall and weak that they will amount to nothing when they decay. Therefore before plants can be grown at all luxuriantly It Is necessary to add tc the soil nitrogen as well as other ele ments of plant food. It is better to add to the soil a lib eral amount of some form of nitrogen ous fertilizer than to take chances on gradually developing the nitrogen producing bacteria in the soli. There fore In the very first stages of solving the nitrogen problem, it may be neces sary to make considerable purchases of chemical nitrogen. But after the first good start has betn made, it should not he necessary to again have resort to commercial nitrogen. There are many plants that are hardy and produce pods, and all pod-prodUcing plants arjs nitrogen gatherers. Either clover or peas will stand severe conditions ofcxlrought, if they are well rooted. Clover and alfalfa will both stand winter conditions. Where red cldver will not do well, ulsyke clover rtr white clover will. In some sections, cqw peas and soy beans will do well and can be, grown for plowing under. Southern localities are, however, likely to reap the most benefit from these two plants. This must be said about cow peas and soy beans, that they have^a lVmr*ed root system and so If only the roots are plowed under they do not give the beneficial results secured ' from the plowing under of a clover sod. In any rotation carried on for the purpose*of keeping up the supply of nitrogen, the leguminous crop must be brought in often enough to give the results desired. How often this leguminous crop should be grown will depend on the natural richness of the particular field in nitrogen and also on the kinds of crops being generally grown as well as the quantities of crops taken off.

How t h e Tcmato May Be Grafted Up on the Potato. Yqu recently published an a'rticle'on grafting the tomato on the potato. Will, you "jkindly describe the process? 1 desire to try the experiment, writes a correspondent of the Country Gen tleman, and that journal replies: "In grafting the tomato on the potato, or the potato on tomato or in ma king any other graft of similar herbaceous plants, the simpler methods are preferred. The Saddle graft and the splice graft are the ones most commonly used. The splice graft is made by simply cutting the scions a smooth slanting cut. The stock is cut in the same way and the two members ore tied together with their faces joined. Splice. -SaddJr. Two Kinds of Graft. In order to get the best results, it is desirable to have the grafts made of rather tender shoots, such as have only partially hardened. In order to get a proper union with this sort of tissue, it is necessary that the cut be made with a very sharp knife, preferably with a razor. The two parts j are then rather tenderly joined togeth- ' er using very soft cloth bandages or moistened raffia. It is desirable fur- j thermore to cover the grafted plant with a bell jar or hand glass of some sort for a few days in order to prevent ! too rapid evaporation. If it is left ox- . posed to the open air, especially if the atmosphere is rather dry, the scion 1 dries out and wilts so badly that it : cannot recover. The saddle graft is ! made by cutting the stock wedgeshaped, while the scion is cut with a V-shaped slit so that it will fit down over the wedge of the stock. The rest of the process is carried out exactly as i already described for the splice praft. ; "Another member sneered. •• Tie probably meant a two-year old j egg,' he murmured." To the Kdltor — »U: —Doubtleas many-or your readers will be pleased to have some word from the grata fields or Western Canada, where such a largo number of Americana have made their home during the paat few year*. It Is pleaatng to be able to report that generally the wheat yield | has been good; It win average about 29 buehels to the acre. There will be many cases where the yield will'go 35 bushels to the acre, and others where 60 bushels to the acre has been recorded. The oat and bariefJ crop hfta been splendid. The prices of all grains will bring to the farmers a magnificent return for their labors. AH instance has been brought to toy notice of a farmer m the Pincher Greek (Southern Alberta) district— wh«re winter wheat Is grown—who ] made a net profit of $19.65 per acre, or little less than the selling price of his land. 30, 40, and 50 bushel yields are recorded there. The beauty about the lands in Western Canada is that they ; are so well adapted to grain-raising, while the luxuriant grasses that grow everywhere In abundance make the best possible feed for fattening cattle or for those used for dairying purposes. The new homestead regulations which went into force September, 1908, attracted thousands of new settlers. It is now possible-to secure 160 acres in addition to the 160 acres as a free grant, by paying f3.00 an acre for it. Particulars as.^ to how to do this and as to the railway rates can be ,se: cured ^rom the Canadian Government Agents. "The development throughout Western Canada during the next ten years will probably exceed that of any other country in the world's history," is not the statement of an optimistic Canadian from the banks of the Saskatchewan, but of Mr. Leslie M. Shaw of New York, ex-Secretary of the United States Treasury under the late President McKinley and President Roosevelt, and considered one of the ablest financiers of the United State*. "Our railway companies sold a good deal of their land at from three to five dollars an acre, and now the owners are selling the same laud at from fifty to seventy-five dollars, and buying m w e up In Canada at from ten to fifteen." The editor of the Monticello (Iowa) Express made a trip through Western Canada last August, and was greatly impressed. He says: "One cannot cross Western Canada to the moun tains without being impressed with its immensity Of territory and its- future prospects. Where I expected to find frontier Villages there were substantially built cities and towns wirh every modern convenience. It was formerly supposed that the climate was too Bevere for It to be thought of as an agricultural country, but its wheatraising possibilities have been amply tested. We drew from Ontario many of our beat farmers and most progressive citizens. Now the Americans are emigrating In greater numbers to Western Canada. Seventy-five per cent, of the settlers in that good country located southeast of Moose Jaw and Regina are Americans. Canada is well pleased with them and is ready to welcome thousands more." Pennsylvania Statesmen. The Pennsylvanians in George Washington's first cabinet were Timothy Pickering, secretary of state, and for a time secretary of war and postmaster- geueral, and William Bradford, attorney-general.

Easily and Cheaply Built—Some Datails of the Work. The greatest trouble heretofore In making concrete culverts, drains, etc., has been to remove the core, which 1s very easily remedied by building the core, us illustrated, in four sections, two sections being joined together, so that when removing from the completed culvert it folds together and is removed iu a moment's time. Again, by having the core circular in form you gain greatly in the strength of the completed work, as the arch will withstand a greater pressure than the usual square form used for this purpose. This simple machine can be built by anyone, declares A. A. Houghton, in Orange Judd Farmer, and is made as follows: At 'both ends of a board ten inches long, 2% inches wide and one Fig. tv-^Constru^tiftn of Core. inch thick, make a mark three-quarters of an inch from the bottom. Place this beside a wide board of same thickness on your workbench, and after setting your compass at seven inches, draw a quarter circle from one of the 3-quarter-inch marks to the other; this will describe just one-fourth of a circle 14 Inches in diameter. The board is cut along the circular mark just drawn. Now on the bottom edge make a mark at each end of this board just three-quarters of ae/inch from the end along the button)'«8ge; draw a line from this mark to the end of the circular CUt jost made and saw off this little three-cornered piece, which mitenr>tln| board at an angle of 32 degrees, and so allows the four segments of cfrcll4L-U». fuVUQBjethej1 to form the completed circle. Use the,board you have just C*t aj^a aattern and cut 15 mo¥*.exactly"like i f Now take •ne-iircb strips which are seven, eight or ten feet long, whatever length you-desire to culvert, and nail to these circular pieces, as shown In Fig. 1. Place one of each of the quarter segments of circle at each end and two at equal distance apart in center, and when you have nailed the strips as illustrated one-fourth of it it finished. Two of these sections are joined together with strap hinges, as shown in Fig. i, a hinge being placed' The average healthy man or woman i s usually eager to be busy at some | useful task or employment.

No orchard should he allowed to go into winter with the gnourjd covered with weeds, cornstalks, straw or anything else under which mice can hide. This has heen the undoing of many an orchard. Sod often produces a growth of grass late in the fall that nii?s together and makes a good hiding place for the floid mice. From their hiding places they sally out and attack the trees, making paths under the snow to the trees. The burning of the dry grans and the harrowing of the soil; if it be plowed, will do away with the, refuses of the mice. The danger does not come from mice far from the orchard, hut from mice in the orchard. Especially is it undesirable for the grass and weeds to be allowed to grow up immediately around the trees, as this increases the danger. right or allow them to fold down as required. The core is now complete and will mold an opening in culvert 15 Inches in diameter. When a larger or smaller opening Is desired you can simply change measurements in cutting the material to make the size desired. In operation, boards are set at each end of the culvert, also at sides; the bottom is filled with concrete nau<JUre to the depth of two Indies; then1 the semi-circular forms are set -rn plaop, with edges together, aJKKthe KkifltWte mixture filled in around them and on top to the depth of threel~tQUi> or six inches, according to the pressure that is to be placed on the calveK. For ordinary usage a fuur-inch depth on top is sufficient. When finished the concrete is allowed to set or harden for several days, when the side boards are removed and the braces on center forms or cure pushed back, folding the forms together, so that they can be easily removed, as illustrated in Fig. 2.

New York. -Here is the story of how a child's life and a fortune in jewels were saved from a burglar-murderer by a warning given by a spirit, which, after sounding the alarm, took the emergency into its own hands and drove the intruder away. This strange tale is vouched for by one of the most prominent and wealthy St. Louis families, who upend part of each year in this cty, and who, obeying the orders of their spirit burglar alarm, have come boldly forward with full particulars, to which are attached their correct names. Jordan W. Lambert, millionaire chemist, with offices iu New York and St. Louis; Mrs. Helen Lambert, his wife; his six-year-old son, Jordan W. Jr., and Will and Lillle Hannegan, clerks in Mr. Lambert's employ, are the. persons involved. According to the statement made by MrSi Lambert, her son was asleep in the nursery adjacent to the parlor in which experiments' in psychic phenomena were going on. "We sat a little while with all the lights turned up, and Will Hannegan raised his hands above his head, and we saw one of his arms grow right out of hiB sleeve until it was nearly a foot longer than its normal length. It was cold and clammy and pretty soon it shrunk back to its regular length. "Then suddenly all of us were jerked from our seat* and led by some invisible force into my son's playroom, where he was sleeping in his cot. After being led back to the table we put out the lights and Miss Howard and Lillle Hannegan wrote rapidly the words: " 'Must watch Mrs. Lambert and junior' (her son).

To cover their tracks the conspirators are naid to have carried his clothes, containing his valuables, to (»alveston, and left them in a bathhouse, where they were found. Affidavits were secured from the boy, who was supposed to have sold the bath ticket, and from a young woman who believed she had seen Webb in the surf, to support the contention of death by drowning. An attempt was made to collect his life innurance held in the New York Life Insurance Company, but payment was refused and Mrs. Webb offered a reward of $5,000 for information leading to the discovery of her husband or his body. Webb declared that he does not remember a thing that happened after he drove to Houston on the night of June 19 last until he found himself on the public road near Joplin, Mo. ACTS L I K E A MAD MAN.

Mieh.-—Ofucials at the Menominee county poor house are up against a strange proposition. With one man who is really half man and half animal on their hands another character of the same kind has been thrust upon them. The first character was brought to . the poor house years ago. His name is James Eagen and he was born in Marinette county. The man has no mind at all. He refuses to wear clotheR and hi* hody is almost covered with long hair. He eats from the floor of his dwelling like an animal, can nor say a word and the only sound he makes is a whimper like an animal. The authorities long ago gave up the idea of trying to clothe him as be would tear the clothes off of himself A moment after they had been put. on. He does not know his own mother and recognizes only the keeper who brings him his food. The second character whom the authorities now have on their hand? is Edward Simeneau, who was at one time a bright-minded little boy- in ihe public schools of the city, but who now refuses to say a word, refuses to keep clothes on himself and, like Eagen, eats and acts in all ways like an animal. At an early age his brain be sran to soften and at lti years of ace ho had no intelligence at all. His condition has grown worse and separate quarters will havt» to be given him. Greatly Exaggerated.

Wedgwood says a cockney, or cockerney, Is one pampered by city indulgence, iu contradistinction to rustics hardened by outdoor work. There Is, however, a legend, almost too good to be t r u e - namely, that a Loudouer who had j never before slept out of sound of Bow Bells had occusion to go into the country and was detained all night. H e was much disturbed by the lowing of the cattle, the grunting of the pigs and other sounds of country life, which he could not understand, and in particular he was frightened by the crowing of the cock. In the morning, hi response to the farmer's inquiries, he said the sound of the wild beasts had kept him awake. J u s t at that moment the cock crowed again, and the Londoner snid: "That's the one! He's been neighing like that for hours!" Since then Londoners have been called cockneighB or cockneys. KILLTHCCOUCHI AND C U R E THE LUNGS WITH Dr. King's New Discovery FOR CfflSSft1* aflSfe.

Droaut Woman the Tougher 8ex. Although men, as they run, are perhaps nms( ularly stronger than women, their inability to withstand the elements and tlieir reliance upon clothes place them considerably below the so called weaker sex in the matter of unclothed loneliness.

POPGINQ THE SPEAKER, One of the* First Caaes of Filibustering In Congress. One of the txrst inslaucea of fllibusteriug occurred in 18(^5 just after tha Impeachment trial of the Hon. Samuel Chase, one of the associate justices of the supreme court. A Quarrel arose over the puyihent of witnesses. The house of representatives would paaa so bill which provided for the payment of those summoned by Chase. The senate would pass no bill which did not. aud a conference followed. Each refused to yield, aud the bill "was lost. John Itaudolph then attempted In the dosing hours of the session to have the witnesses for the managers of the trial paid out. of the contingent fuitd of the house. Hut the Federalists were ready. They hurried from the room, and When the v o t e / w a s taken the speaker announced no quorum. Memt>ers were thereupon summoned from the lobby and committee rooms. Hardly were they In their seats when a message from the .president was announced, and while the clerk was reading it the Federalists again left the room, so that when the resolution was B second time called up there was again no quorum. Once more the sergeant at arms went Into the lobby, and once more the members came in. But an enrolled bill was reported, and while the speaker was signing it the Federalists a third time slipped out, The announcement of no quorum which followed was greeted with shouts of laughter. Randolph in a great passion desisted, aud late on the evening of Sunday, March :5. ISun. the Eighth congress ended. P.altlmore American. 1* SriiUDiST EPISCOPAL CUUKOH, 111 Kev. i>.

The prime minister, as if recognising their informant's plight, in a friendly tone of voice said: "Mr. Hiilier, I presume you are tired after your journey and would like to rest before any further discussion of this subject. I would suggest that you go to your chambers and return here tomorrow." "What sense is there in his returning ?" came the angry question of the lord of the admiralty, as the secretary bowed himself out of the room. "He doesn't even know, I presume, that Japan is already sending every available ship she has against the western coast of America as fast as steam will carry it." Sending an invading fleet against an apparently passive country in some pari, of which was the woman he loved! This thought reiterated itself through Guy's mind as he passed down the corridor and out into the din and movement of the street. Where could she be now. he wandered, and what, of her father'.' Insane, perhaps, and incapable of offering her protection of which she would stnnd so sadly in need in case of Japanese success. The words of a letter which he carried in his pocket, and which to him was of more Importance than the dispatcher he delivered, constantly recurred to him : "It is always wiihin the realms of possibility, when war is on a land, that friends may never meet again. If such should be our case, I pray that you will remember this, even up to the last-—I loved you." In the dusk of early evening an army of countless men and women hurrying to the trams, the tubes and ihe buses, swept past him ignorant of his misery. What was war to them in a country thousands of miles across a sea and In which perhaps there was none bound to them by ties of affection? The United States might isolate itself by sea and intrench itself behind cordons of soldiers; but he would go back! Yes, he would find a way to pass all their barriers and gain the side of the woman who merited his protection through her avowed love, and in this, her hour of need, seemed" crying out to him across the uttermost spaces of the world, beseeching him to return—only to return! CHAPTER V. In Secret Paths. Nippon, the home of the Samurai, in her adoption of newer methods, had not permitted her secret service department to remain fn ancient, form. Modeled on those lines which had made the intelligence bureau of Russia one of the most effective in the entire world, and profiting by the publicity given to nearly every movement of importance in the United States, she was minutely informed of all that had been and was taking place in the country she hoi>ed to overcome. She had depended upon this knowledge as a valued factor for the suhjugation of the American colossus, not. foreseeing that a country capable of closing its doors to the world would also find means to circumvent foreign agents. To *he last minute she relied upon her emissaries in nearly all the larger cities of America under the direct.'on of Count Seigo. Away back in the time of the Tukugawa Shogunate, when the almost in vlnclble leader Seigo was an Idol to the youth of Satauma to be toppled over only in the civil war of 18J7, Jits son wks bqing educated.in * leading American iiniTerilty. The downfall of the father practicably qptiled t h e lad HB the L'uited Stares until family and political Influence had time to ftar sell itself, when by progressive steps he gained the good graces of his government and was given responsible positions In affairs of state. His knowledge of the American political situation wan complete and accurate, and no man was better informed on ihe strength and weakness of ihe re public. It hud been largely through his ad vice that the dispute between the two nations, trivial iu itself but portentous in possibilities, had been used as a pretext for war- Thoroughly conversant with congressional methods In the United States, he had watched year by year the qulbblings of legislators over naval bills which usually ended in inadequate appropriations. Of broader mind that they, he had long foreseen that a country which bad come Into distant colonial possessions must of necessity enlarge its navy and augment its efficiency, expend money In unremitting streams Tor maintenance, and stimulate its men to seek Individual excellence iu the border Hues north and south or embarking on the high seas for foreign ports. Singularly- enough, NU*» prejudice in the eastern states had never reached the point or acute discrimination which made the denizens or that section classify the Japanese and Chinese In one broad category as orientals; it was therefore easy for Seigo to don the garb of a laundryman in the city of Washington, improvise a pigtail, and without interruption assume to pursue this vocation. Fertile of resource, he readily discovered that in a situation where anarchy might thrive the followers of the red flag would be his most valuable spies. Without difficulty he allied himself with this element, and gained a friendly footing with them by ostensibly favoring the advancement of their cause in Hussian domains. Their confidence iu him was strength ened by the fact that he was accomplished iu their language, which he spoke fluently, and was a liberal contributor to their treasury. Having thus ingratiated himself, the next step was made easy. He se lee ted such tools from the ranks of these malcontents as seemed best fitted to his hands, and thereby established a means of securing news that would have been impossible in any other way. From his little hovel he directed these men as seemed best, Seiao'B Most Valuable Ally W w One Meredith. gunnery and drill. He had observed the growth of conceit, which, like rust beneath a coat of paint, led men to believe so devoutly In American superiority that they neglected to analyze the actual power which could positively be developed. By a process of elimination he estimated the fighting value of the American navy, discarding vessels still in service but obsolete, and others still on paper but looked upon by the unsophisticated as a part of the nation's strength. National prowess he regarded as a small factor when granting equality. Seigo's observations had been so careful and his conclusions so logical, that reports sent to and passed upon by the elder statesmen of Japan had led them to feel certain of victory long before war was declared. Nor had his predictions in the opening events been unfulfilled. True he had not expected the abandonment of the Philippines; hut he had confidently foretold the period of torpidity, of confusion and lack of cohesion, which had followed. It. was with satisfaction, therefore, that he observed the trend of events when hostilities were finally declared, and from the quietude of his study saw the whole country waiting for the government to act. while apparently it remained somnolent. The surrender of the islands came as the first perplexing problem for which he could neither account nor understand, and his activities prior to that event were nothing when compared with those subsequent. He was too adroit ever to have appeared as a laborer in the limelight, and was therefore eminently fitted to drop from sight, at the outbreak, when his fellow countrymen were leaving by hundreds seeking places of refuge across assigning them to tasks of more or less magnitude, and paying lavishly for anything of value; and to his obscure place there came divers men when night time offered the cloak of darkness to the furtive. Seigo's most valuable ally was one Meredith, of English parentage, and a man who for years resided on Cross street, Paterson, N. .1., that unfortunate city whose very industry and peacefulness had made it the gathering place of the Reds. Meredith was a machinist by trade, and an employe of a supply house; so It was not surprising that he brought news of strange and unusual purchases made through many sources by the United States government. In this there was nothing alarming, and it was rather with curiosity that the astute descendant of a Samurai looked over these reports and vaguely wondered whether they might have bearing on war. He was sufficiently painstaking to ask for others and check them up; but in this he gained nothing beyond the certainty that the navy department, while existing In a state of seeming stagnation, was inwardly very active. He made many trips to the points where these purchases were made, hut found them innocuous in so far as he could reason. As time went on, however, he found that the greater portion cf these ship ruents were being sent to Miami, Fla. And WRF driven to the final conclusion that if the government was active in any way at all, the key must be at the small city on the southeastern coast. News had leaked through to him to the effect that the ships of the United Statns were scattering out over many seas instead of mobilising In western waters. More than thin, Seigo learned that in all navy yards there had been a cessation of work, whereas an Increase would have seemed more reasonable, considering the unfinished stKtt of several -cruisers and battle shlpV" ! [:' • , On "first •itriougi& he a t t r i b u t e this latter ;lap*f to #)ue pf t£e frequent chghMs of policy or a dearth or funds, but ,now, in view of these later shipments and purchases, he began to aueatiou. iu Washington no uew« was obtainable. TUe administration was preserving a wooden front toward not only the world but its own people as well. Congressmen and senators knew nothing beyond the declaration of war and the empowering of the president and his cabinet in special session to act for the country, and the administration was apparently doing nothing whatever out of the regular routine of business. It was this pauclty which drove the sham laundry man from his irons and away upon a journey. His trip southward was accomplished with ridiculous ease. He bought his ticket to Miami withoui being subjected to interrogation, boarded the second clash or smoking coach at the head of the train \\ Ithout hindrance, and rode away in undisturbed solitude. No one seemed aware or in any event to care for his presence. There were no attempts at conversation, except In one Instance where a good-natured southerner hailed him with: "Hello, John! Going to start a wash shop somewhere?" nor was he in the least perturbed save on an occasion when a rough threatened to tweak his pigtail; but even this went no further than words. Everywhere were criticisms of the conduct of the war and imprecations against the administration. The Amercans themselves were no more cognizant than he of why soldiers had been stretched along the border line, ports closed, and communication cut off. The citizens of the country itself were as mystified as the Japanese, and frankly thought the situation a foolish one. In all that long journey down the eastern coast he learned nothing whatever of importance. His delayed train dropped him off late at night in the Florida town, and he was compelled to seek lodging with strangers or to sleep in the open. He chose the latter course, and went out below the city, across the bridge and toward the Punch Bowl, where he found rest beside the road till early morning. When the first rays of the sun were filtering through the great trees and drenching the creepers with light, he returned to the city, assisted on his way by a kindly farmer who was driving in for supplies. From him he learned where the Chinese laundries were situated; but could gather nothing whatever confirming his suspicions that the government was either in possession of a plant, at this point or even conducting any expeiiments in the vicinity. Still disguised and acting upon what had been told him, he sought the abode of the Chinaman, who was already sweating over his tubs, and found him amenable to persuasion and desirous of giving as>,istar>ee when paid considerable sums of prote.-tion money. His horn of phnty was a golden one, but pro\eil useless in a day of fruitless effort, his most careful inquiries bringing nothing in the way of return. Tired and discouraged, lie passed the early part of the night in sleep from which he was aroused by nightmares of horror and forebodings of failure, his mental state robbing him of rest. In the hope that fatigue would cure insomnia, he donned his clothing and sauntered away through the deserted streets, his heavy leather soles clumping upon board walks and across sandy patches. It was past one o'clock in the morning, and all was still. He wandered idly along the main thoroughfare, and reached the far end of the town, before his attention was attracted by a sound from the water front, where hollowly through the stillness a steam winch was chugging and sputtering as it toiled away with its load. It brought him to a quick halt and aroused in his mind a multitude of questions, because along the entire shore line of this great country no craft was now loading and none arriving, according to his knowledge. He hastily directed his steps toward the wharves, stealthily seeking the shadows of the palm trees. Lying against the pier was a small gunboat of the United States navy, which was receiving supplies, and the men at work wore evidently hurrying at their utmost. The vessel had not. been there during the daylight hours —of this he was certain—hence her loading at night could indicate but one thing, a desire for secrecy. His nerves keyed up in the hope of a discovery, alert, and inquisitive, he crept close to the freight shed where the arc lights threw huge spots of white. So this accounted for the disposal of those mysterious orders which had been reported to him by Meredith and others! But where could they be bound" What, was the destination of this ship which, even as he watched, was casting off her lines preparatory 10 sailing away into the night? (TO BE CONTINUED J EXCELLENT WEATHER UNO- WGNFICEKT CROPS * •«-*£ ., , ; : '(. REPORTS FROM W E S T E R N CANADA A R E VfcKY fcNCOURAGING. A correspondent write* the Winnipeg (Man.) Free Press: "The Piueher Cre«fc district,.- XSo*th*r» Alberta), the original fcocup of fall wheat, where it ha* been grown with out failure, dry seasons and wet, for about 25 years, is excelling itself thJ* year. T h e yield and quality are both phenomenal, as has been t h e weather for its harvesting. Forty bushels Is a common yi»*!d, and many fields go up to 50, tjQ and over, and most of it No. 1 Northern. Even last year, which w#s less favorable, similar yields were in some cases obtained, but owing to the season the quality was not so good. It is probably safe to say that the average yield from the Old Man's River to the boundary will be 47 or 48 bushels per acre, and mostly No. 1 Northern. One man has just made a net profit from his crop of $19.55 per acre, or little less than the selling price of land. Land here is too cheap at pres ent, when a crop or two will pay for It, and a failure almost uuknown. Nor Is the district dependent on wheat, all other crops do well, also stock and dairying, and there Is a large market at the doors in the mining towns up the Crows Nest Pass, and in British Columbia, for the abundant hay of the district, and poultry, pork, and garden truck. Coal is near and cheap. Jim Hill has an eye on its advan tages, and has invested her.e, a u d i i bringing the Great Northern Railroad soon, when other lines will follow." The wheat, oat and barley crop In other parts of Western Canada Bhow splendid yields and will make the farmers of that country (and many of them are Americans) rich. The Canadian Government Agent for this district advises us that he will be pleased to give information to all who desire it about the new land regulations by which a settler may now secure 160 acres in addition to his 160 homestead acres, at $3.00 an acre, and also how to reach these lands into which, railways are being extended. It might be interesting to read what is said of that country by the Editor of the Marshall (Minn.) Xews-Mjessenger, who made a trip through portions of it in July. 1908. "Passing through more than three thousand miles of Western Canada's agricultural lands, touring the northern and southern farming belts of the Provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta, with numerous drives through the great grain fields, we were made to realize not only the magnificence of the crops, but the magnitude, in measures, of the vast territory opening, and to be opened to farming Immigration. There are hundreds of thousands of farmers there, and millions of acres under cultivation,— lint, there is room for millions more, and other millions of acreage avaVjabh?. We could see in Western Canada ifT'soil, product, topography or climate, little that is different from Minnesota, and with meeting at every point many business men and farmers who went there from this state, It was difficult to realize one was beyond the boundary of the country."

T h e habit of reveling in c h e a p fiction is d e s t r u c t i v e of a wholesome p l e a s u r e In sound reading*, T h e love of books, Hke the love of virtue, feeds in high, clean, sv/eet p a s t u r e s , n o t in refuse, and not even on h u s k s . Again, the d e m a n d for certain, books does not require t h e public library to supply t h e m . It is a specious a r g u m e n t t h a t the taxpayers* money should a n s w e r the t a x p a y e r s ' desire. More t h a n (iO per cent, of the books" d r a w n from public libraries are works of fiction. The thin, tasteless s t r e a m of m o d e r n fiction is ton often t h e lib r a r y ' s chief offering to the community. Certain libraries adopt the rigorous m e a s u r e of buying no fiction until it is a year old. The librarians agreed that the rule, is an excellent one, if it is slightly elastic in its actual application. At all events, the helpful advisory r e a d e r for the public library is ihe man or woman who believes that in proportion as a jjjytMl book is a blebsijifcva poor book is a curse. It s e e m s incredible that niK|Q.civilized a country as Italy a man 'can have remained in prison untried for :J,S years, Yet the. goyeimraent is about to dispose of a case which has been p e n d i n g since 1870. On S e p t e m b e r 18 of that year two boys, aged 11 and fight years, started for a g u n s m i t h ' s with their father's pistol to be repaired. On the way they quarreled, and the elder shot the younger, probably by accident. T h e elder was arrested by the pupal authorities, then the rulers of Home; but, before he could bo brought to trial the temporal power of the pope was taken away. Hy 18S2 the new power in R o m e had reached the case and was ready to try it; but the d e a t h penalty was abolished about this time, and this caused fresh delay. Now, if he is so fortunate, the boy, now a middle-aged man, will e i t h e r be. discharged from cv.sloday or he formally punished.

CHAPTER V.—Continued. In hie anxiety he was on the verge of rushing out and trusting to any convenient pretext, when a boy came hurrying past him, whistling as he went and homeward bound. Here was the spy's opportunity, and he accepted it, He hailed the lad, and In pigeon English told him he wanted to get aboard the vessel if he could. "Well, you c a n t do it," came the response. "If you wanted to git on, why didn't you run after the ship instead of stopping me?" "Where she go?" queried Selgo. "Oh, you want to know Where's she's going now, do you, Mr. Chink. Well, a leNow on the dock said she was going to (luantanamo, and that means you couldn't go on her if you wanted to." Then with a derisive laugh he took up tho strain of his melody at exactly the sj;me place he had left off when accosted, thrust his hands into his pockets and continued his way. Seigo was elated. That accounted for it, then! The I'nlted States was playing some crafty game, using its <''viWaii naval station as a base; was conducting some experiment or outlining some strange expedition with necessities that could not be obtained in the big island to the south. The only perturbing thought was that the navy, instead of being inactive, had sfinw secret task on hand which had been taken away from home stations. He decided he must return to Washington with this single strand of information and there endeavor to secure others. He watched the lights of the ship grow dim, and then as fnrtively as he had come returned to the home of the laundryman. .The latter counted his pay and wondered why his guest, departed for the north nn the early train of that, morning. Selgo offered no explanations for his erratic action, and as he traveled to Washington he was In a gleeful mood. In duo time he arrived, and once more ensconced himself in his headquarters, hoping within a few days to gain more complete knowledge. He was handicapped In his quest, however, because he had no actual moans of access to government circles where such data as hr* wished might. l>est be obtained. Hut again accident, favored him. and again it. was in the night when he sallied forth. Tho hour was late when Meredith hroiTght. hJm word that several visitors had called upon the president, and, not, trusting to others a mission so important, he took upon himself the task of spying upon the great white building where the ruler of the country lived. From the darkness of his alleyway be emerged into a broader street, when an automobile went chugging past him, and then, just as it. crime beneath the rays of an arc light, a face leaned to the window, an i'vvni was extended evidently for the {•rri;o:e cf shaking the ash from a Hgar, a»d Selgo shrank back. In the shivering whit* rays ho recognized as one of the passengers in the machine no lean a personage than the president, and with him was another man whom he believed to be the secretary of war. From down t h e road eam« the sound «f another motor, which in turn whizzed rapidly along, taking the same direction as the previous car Selxo waB iiot certain, but conjectured [bat within it were other officials, und, bolng a man of action, unluxsltatlngly dashed aft«r it, noared the closed touneau, und after a breathless run succeeded in swlugiug himself to ihe springs behind, maintaining his place by clutching the overhang of the feu ders. Awaj through the outskirts he rode, hearing nothing from within und lu constant danger of falling off his pre carious perch. The car galued speed until his peril was great, for to be thrown would be to receive certain lujury. His fingers were btralued con vulslvely In their effort to hold ou, and once he was almost cast off by a sharp declivity lu the road. Now he could only trust to chance that the automobile on which he rode was following that of the president; but as mile alter mile was reeled off without a sight of the other machine ou wither hand, he felt assured that tho party was all one. He leaned out across one of the great rubber tires and peered ahead to where now and then he could catch the glow of a red back lamp, and was content. His journey was uot without discomfort, as the dust of the road whirled upward and into his nostrils In stiffing volume, until he was begrimed and almost strangled; but he clung on grimly, waiting for the mysterious trip to end. The big car stopped so suddenly that he had scant time to loosen his hold, fall off into the dirt aad roll hastily into a ditch by the roadside where he might be hidden from sight. To his surprise the vehicle turned through a gateway into a field, where he heard the slow crunching of the great wheels over the stubble. He raised himself to his knees, and theoi In a crouching posture essayed to follow J t lu Its wanderings, when he was arrested by a jsharp challenge, betraying the fact tha*? although the vis itors had been expected no chance was being takeu of entertaining others. Again he threw himself on his lace, waiting patiently for other sounds. The great flat before him showed dimly in its yellow bareness, stretching down to where the broad expanse ol river gleamed dully, and he could discern other lights than those of the motor on which he had been an undiscovered passenger. These suddenly vanished, and he surmised that the chauffeurs had extinguished them pre paratory to leaving the cars. He could trace out no other shapes in the gloom. Not even a building raised its dark bulk in the night. He felt the necessity of advancing farther. Foot by foot he wriggled forward, the splinters of the field imbedding themselves in his flesh unheeded, straining every nerve to avoid making a noise, and listening at intervals in the hope of catching some word of conversation which might give him v. clew to the cause of this nocturnal mission. From a short distance ahead came the mutterlngs of low-pitched voices, and then a period of silence. He was past the machines now, still crawling carefully. Once more he paused, when he heard a sullen muffled crash from the direction of the water, and in an agony of surprise and terror rose to his knees, forgetting that he might be observed. His hands Interlocked themselves in stress as he watched in breathless suspense for a moment, and then, almost moaning in despair, he crept rapidly back to the road, went cautiously down it for a hundred yards, and took madly to his heels with fright. All caution was thrown aside, and as he ran like an insane man through the night, with his overworked lungs bellowing in and out until they felt aflame, he burst into sobs, muttering to himself again and again: "Only the gods can save; Nippon! The gods help Nippon!" resentment chanced to act against him. Yesterday he had beeu smiling, supercilious and confident. To-night as he ran, he was terrineu, ashamed and despairing. Information had come to him that the blockade was complete, and lu no instance was ue certain iual «uy of his reports had passed through the lines. He rapidly reviewed the chances, and decided that he must get word to every uiau at his command to strive to pass a warning through to Canadian territory where it might be cabled to Japan. He counted, with Japanese reasoning, on his ability to bribe some oae along the border, fur gettlug that when American patriotism Is at full tide money has little weight. He had large funds at com mand, and In a crisis like this was ready to pom them out lavishly. His return to the capital was rupid, as he strained his physical powers to their utmost, and he was almost exhausted wht?n he reached the section where his Chinese ally dwelt. With dragging steps he was turning down a street, when a sharp whispered call lug or his name from the depths of a hallway arrested him. Stepping inside, he recognized his friend. The iustaut he was under the cover of darkness he was grasped by the arm and hurried through a doorway and up a flight of stairs. He would have remonstrated at this strange proceeding had not his conductor mumbled: "Come fast and ask nothing! It's your only chance to save your life!" Through a long corridor where there were no lights, out to a back porch which overhung skeleton-like from the building in which the residents were evidently all asleep, d^jwrf aaother flight of rickety stairs, and Into a vacant space, presumably a back yard, he*4ollowed. Not until they reached this secluded place did he have a chance to ask an explanation, und then, before he could formulate a question, it was volunteered. "The American secret service men have been after you. They are watching the house inside and out. C H A P T E R V I . The Flight of Seigo. Seigo understood at last that the sleeping eagle was preparing to descend from its aerie with mercilessly bared talons. In his flight to the city he counted every moment of value, and through his mind went, but one thought: How to get. news to Japan in time to avert disaster. What he bad witnessed was so convincing that he was .imaged at the devilish ingenuity of the Americans, who had led the whole world to believe them defenseless when they were in realityonly luring other nations on to their doom. He was filled with resentment. The shoe was on the other foot now, and If made a noticeable difference. When he believed the United States powerless to defend itself, it had been only fit and proper that. Japan should harry her, conquer if possible, and gain concessions of territory arid money indemnity; but. with the knowledge that the country was not only in a position to care for itself, hut also to conquer an enemy, ho viewed things in ar. entirely different light. Worst of all, he realized that he was more largely responsible for the outburst of war than any ofhor man, and aside from the ignominy which must be imposed upon his people was the appreciation of what might hap- I on to his own precious head when Clambered Through the Side Door of an Empty. They've seized your papers and every thing else in the place, T escaped und brought you money with which to go." "Hut my men?" "Arrested as fast as they came; taken quietly away, and now in prison." "Meredith, too?" "Yes, he was taken in the street above." Selgo gasped in astonishment. "Out there must be some who got away?" "No, not even one. You're the only man left The Americans are a terrible people. They have hoodwinked you until the time was ripe, then reached out and caught you all as n fisherman with his net. takes in a school of minnows. Even now they are waiting for you, and you'll have to act quick or they will get you too.' The spy felt suddenly that he had underestimated the enemy completely, An involuntary shudder contracted h ^ muscles when he comprehended that not only had he been watched until the propitious time for his taking, but that he had been deliberately played with, an unconscious mouse beneath the eyes of a vigilant, cat. Worst of all, thhs in itself was confirmation that none of the later reports he bad sent out to Japan had reached then destination. Probably every message he had dispatched was now in tho hands of the Americans. His only hot>e of conveying warning to his countrymen and for his own life depended on his escape from the clutches i.. these men, who could appear igrtorar: and torpid when in reality they we:v advised and alert. In a burst of impotent, rage he shook his fist* at the stars. His companion caught his arm. "Listen!" he said. "Yon have but one chance. You must get away from Washington to-night. I have a friend. a Canton man, who is a gardener in the outskirts. If we can reach him he will take you in his wagon to a rail way crossing before the light comes. There you can get aboard a freight train." "'Jo as a t r a m p ? " "YM, because all other trains will be searched .*' oel^o nhiUfeSeti ht=> sUquJtim's >b dis gu»t. He Would have uttered a pro test in words had not bis companion checked him and continued: "Ii JMU itio careful you can set to Chicago, where other friends of mine Will help you. Then you must try to reach Canada as best you can." Seigo hesitated a minute before de elding; but it was obvious that no bet ter means was available SOME REMARKS FROM SOTA EDITOKS.

Mfiny a talented person is kept hack because of the interference of coffee with the nourishment of the body. This is especially so with those - whose nerves are very sensitive, as is \ often the case with talented persona. There is a simple, easy way to got rid of coffee evils and a Tenn. lady's experience along these lines is worth \ considering. She says: . i "Almost from the beginning of the nse of coffee it hurt my stomach. By the time I was fifteen I was almost a nervous wreck, nerves all unstrung, no strength to endure tho most trivial thing, either work or fun. "There was scarcely anything I could eat that would agree with me, The little 1 did eat seemed to givo me •more trouble than it was worth. I finally quit coffee and drank hot water, hut there was so little food I ; could digest, I was literally starving; was so weak I could not sit up long at a time. "ft. was then a friend brought, me a hot cup of Postum. I drank part of it ; find aft or an hour I felt as though I had had something to oat — felt. : strengthened. That, was ahout five years ago, and after continuing Postum in place of coffee and gradually getting stronger, to-day 1 can eat. anddigest anything I want,<fWaJk as much a s T witni. My nerve's Cre steady, ' ,;• "I belirv/e the fir'si. fh'fng that did mc any good ^nrt,,fcgave ui" an upwardstart, wa* Postum. and 1 use it altogether now Instead of roiTee." "There's a Reason."

T h * r HANKSGIVING is one of our highest and holieat duties. There are in the jf*>MkJl Scriptures more conit&} V^*2r mands and calls to praise * " * ^ than to prayer. Yet few duties ase more frequently neglected than this. There arc many people who are always coming to God with requests but who do not come to him with thanksgiving after their requests have been granted. Ten lepers once cried t o ' J e s u s *ror cleansing, as he'«Mfe passtarg* t h e n r n t a distance. He graciously heard them and granted their plea. When they had been healed, one of the ten returned to thank the healer, but the other nine came njoL .again with any word of recognition of the s p a t favor they had received, So it is continually—many are blessed and helped, but few show gratitude. Our Lord felt keenly the Ingratitude o f the lepers who returned not. "Where are the nine?" was his pained question. God pours out his gifts and blessings every day upon his children; and whenever no voice of thanksgiving is heard in return he misses it. If one bird of the forest is silent, in ihe glad spring day, he misses Its song. If one human heart fails to utter its praise amid life's countless blessings, he "Is disappointed. Many there are who think that, if certain definite days are set apart for praise it is enough. For example, they will he grateful for a whole day once in a year, touching then every chord of praise in their heing. thinking that, this is the way God wants them to show their gratitude. But the annual Thanksgiving day is not intended to gather into itself the thanksgiving for a whole year; rather It Is Intended to give the keynote for all the year's life. Life's true concert pitch is praise. If we find that we are below the right pitch, we should take advantage of the particular thanksgiving seasons to g e t . kqyed up. When the strings of life begin to grow discordant thanksgiving will put us in tune. The Ideal life is one of gladness. Cnthankf nines* and fretfulaeas.* are discords in the song. We have no right to live gloomily or sadly. Go where we may, we hear the music of joy, unless our ears have become tonedeaf. The world is full of beauty and full of music. Yet it is strange how many people seem neither to see the loveliness nor hear Ihe musir. It were well if many of us would train ourselves to see the glory and goodness of God, as revealed in nature. It will be sad r o i e a v e this world, afterstaying in it three-score or foyj-fltfore' yearn4 without having seen any of t h * ten thousand beauties with which God had adorned it. "Consider the lilies,'' said Jesus. Every sweet flower has a message of joy to him who can read the writing. One who loves riod's flowers and birds, and trees and mountains and rivers and •seas,1 and has leant**) *W**b«Ntt!&fe w i s e s *hfette*erywhere whisper their secrets to him who I'r'l.'vs^-.i fg, c~n n^vr-r h? ^ 1 a: lonely. The power to hear what nature's voices have to say is in our hearts, not merely In the ear. We must have the beauty in our souls before we can see beauty anywhere. Hence there are many who are really blind to the loveliness which God has strewn everywhere, with most lavish hand, in his works. So we must have the music in our,heart before we'pan hour the music which sings everywhere for him who has ears to hear. If we have thanksgiving within ys\ we will have no trouble in finding gladness wherever we go. It is a sad and cheerless heart that makes the world seem dreary to certain people;"If only they will let joy enter to dwell within, a new world would be created for them If we allow our heart to cherish unlovingness, bitterness, evil thoughts or feelings, we cannot hear the music of love which breathes everywhere, pouring out from the heart of God. But. if we keep our heart gentle, patient, lowly, and kind, on our ears will fall, wherever we go, sweet strains of divine music. Then a glad life makes a life of gladness wherever it goes. It leaves an unbroken lane of sunbeams behind it. Everybody is better as well as happier for meeting one whose Christian life radiates gladness and cheer. We can do nothing better either for ourselves or for the world In which we live than to learn the lesson of praise and of thanksgiving. "Let us learn to sing unto the Lord with thanksgiv ing," There are troubles in every life, but. there are a thousand tvood things for one trial. Sometimes we have disappointments but even these are reaHy God's appointments, as some d*y we shall find out. If people are unkind to us, we must go on loving just as before, our hearts full of unconquerable kindness, and it will finally win. The most deep-seated tendency to sadness can be overcome and replaced hy happy cheerfulness. The gospel of Christ comes to us and tells us that we must be horn again, born from above, born of God, and our very nature will be recreated. Then divine grace assures us that it is not impossible oven for the most, unholy life to be transformed into holiness. The being that is saturated with sin may be whiter than snow.

Alice Boles, 23 years old aud. inclined to be stout, and her friend, Ml»« Ewnia Gardner, S3 years old and of willowy build, started from Cleveland, 0., to Milwaukee In male attire without observing the formality of paying railroad fare, and the result Is that they were locked up at the Attrill street police station. A hard hearted railroad detective ar rested them because his suspicions were aroused by the alae of their shapely feet. "The minute I saw the little fe'ect of what I first supposed were a couple of tramps I made up my mind the hoboes were women, and I arrested them." This is the explanation offered by Special Policeman Thomas Wetts oi the Chicago St Northwestern railroad, who was attracted by the actioma oi the women while in Mayfair, a short distance from Chicago. "I think it an outrage that two earnest women cannot wear troupers aud 'beat' their way like men without being arrested," protested Mrs. Boles as she gazed at her make-up and argued with Capt. Harding to be set free. "Miss Gardner aud myself live In Cleveland," explained the head of the masquerading expedition. "My husband being out of work, we decided to reach Milwaukee by easy stages. There is a chance of Mr. Boles getting ;t job there and, of course, I was willing to help him in every way possible." The task of 'beating" the railroads would be next to impossible for a hobo in skirts, so Mrs. Boles and Miss Gardi ner appropriated a portion of Mr. Boles' wardrobe and headed for the great northwest. For a part of the distance the plucky young women were accora panied by Boles and Charles Ford, Tho Visitor—WJi*t on **rth d o w that chap carry that phonograph round foi.

The Hard-Hearted Railroad Detective Arrested Them. who is said to be the intended husband of Miss Gardner, but the quartette became separated for a time and the women were obliged to pilot their own course. "We were getting along famously," explained Mrs. Boles, 'and would have made a success of the adventure hau not our feet begun to swell. You see we had ordinary summer shoes and the wear and tear of the road proved too much for them. "When we started we figured that, it would be pretty easy to beat our way on trains, providing we could get. rid of our skirts, Then it was that. I hit upon the plan of taking enough trousers aud things from my husband to make the journey. "If we had only included brngans in our list, of wardrobe iiftceaalf.ies that watchful iK>Hoenian would have lx>en frwiled and we could have proceeded on our way without interruption." Mrs. Boles and her traveling componlon were not in the leaat disturbed over their arrest, Axoept for the delay in resuming their Journey. She said! "From this Ume forth I am going to advocate women's rights and one of th* first of these will be the wearing of trousers. Why not?" "I am now 80 years old, and t h r e e year* ago I waa taken with a n attack of pMee (hemorrhoids), toieaftlng and protruding. The doctor said the only help for me was to go to a hospital and be operated on. I tried several remedies for months but did not get much help. During this time sores appeared which changed to a terrible itching eczema. Then I began to. use Cnticura Soap, Ointment, and Pills, injecting a quantity of Cutteura Ointment with a Cutlcura Suppository Syringe. It took a month of this treatment to get me in a fairly healthy state and then I treated myself once a day for three months and, after that, once or twice a week. The treatments I tried took a lot of money, and ft is fortunate that I used Cutlcura. J. H. Henderson, Hopkinton, N. Y., Apr. 26, 1907." As He Understood It. Despite the imaginative nature of the child, it has a decided tendency to see things in a literal sense. This is noticeable in the acquiring of language. For instance, little Herbert was pleading to go out of doors to play. "When I see fit, you shall go," said his mother, decidedly. This settled the matter, and the little fellow went off to his blocks. In about half an hour he returned, and •aid: "Mamma, have you seen him?"

He follows auto carrying presidential cabinet. He unearthB source of great mystery and" flees, murmuring: "the gods save Nippon." CHAPTER VI.—Continued. In constant terror until his nerves became shreds to torment him, alert by night and day, he traversed the c o n t i n e n t and at last entered the gateway.of the northwest, where so many of his countrymen had resided prior to the outbreak of hostilities, but where now he might claim neither friends rior sympathizers. Here indeed was a No plan's Land where none ex tended & welcome. From then on he must depend entirely on his own resources, and he understood perfectly weil that he was nearing a hard finish of a long race. He lost no time in making a start. Under the pretext of going to a camp where he was to cook he in duced a launch that was starting out toward the mouth of Puget sound to take him aboard as a passenger and land him at its journey's end a short distance from Port Townsend. He was dropped off late in the evening at a tiny landing, and later saw the little beat speed back toward Seattle He was without food nave such as had tee* given him, and tightened the h&t beneath his Chinese garb in an tlfcfpatkm of a hard trip. Usu«ed to t*ie rougher life, he made painful progress, and nothing save his des peratkm enabled him to traverse the primitive strip between him and the «Aty. Footsore and dependent, he forged doggedly ahead, until at last by sheer will power alone he gained t h e outskirts of the port. Its wooden wtoarf was deserted, and many of the houses were closed and vAcant, the fetfr of Japanese shells and government weakness having driven the rnoTe prosperous inhabitant* away. Thoroughly worn out, he waited un.-. til night fell, then crawled into a coal shed and slept as only t h e worn and weary can sjeep. He ro^e refreshed and jubilant because he had' gained thus far without accident, hunger being his only immediate discomfort. From his depleted store cloth he extracted the smallest, coin, bent on seeking food before the city was awake. He made his way down the hillside to the business section without attracting attention, and entered the doorway of a grocery store, where a sleepy-looking youth was sweeping a*way the previous day's waste. In broken English he made known hi3 wants, and then, finding the salesman apparently friendly and stupid, lost some of hia native caution and began to ask questions regarding the watch kept, along the frontier. At his first query the boy looked at him slyly; but. t i t e r a moment's hesitation fell in attd answered everything readily, assuring him, however, that it would be tMfflcult for any living thing to get past the soldiers who kept watch and ward over the boundary line. Elated by the apparent ease with which he had secured provisions, he again retreated toward the edge of the city, mentally formulating plans for stealing a boat when night came, and by this means to make his way to Vancouver, where he would he on British soil.

He regretted the loss of hit) handkerchief, which he feared must have been dropped In' the grocery- store, but smiled at the thought of being within so, few. miles of a refuge where others might be bought and where he could find ease and comfort. jproxn back of him a deep belluwjng sound came faintly through the trees, and he wondered what the unusual noise could be, He rose to his feet, still holding a reiunant of food in hU hand, and waited for a repetition of the noise, which, borne on the breeze, was heard .more sharply. Only once before had he ever known that same sullen bay, and then it was when as a visitor in a southern village he had seen a pack of hounds followed by excited men pass him in quest of a negro criminal. His memory harked back to that time, and his hair raised itself in terror. He threw away, his food and dashed madly into the woods, seeking to escape that menacing uu face, ripped the false queue from his shorjt cropped bristling hair and rent his clothing.' Once, blinded with perspiration,, h e plunge^ 4nto whaj j p ^ a t » h e JU pathway; btrt fell through a iam^le at she end, to fln^ h i ^ s ^ l f fcsfde* » Wayside spring;. *He gulped thre* or tour swallows of water and retraced U s ste_ps,. cursing fate, for (he km* ol time, and ran with renewed energy down the roadway. A flash of re< fleeted light smote him in t h e eyes, and he anwiihat he had reached t h e water's edge. At bis feet stretched only tossing" waves, and like ft stag at bay he was driven to the^open. The, end seemed very near; now; for back of him the harsh clamoiings broke out into a triumphal walling note telling those behind that the quarry had been sighted. The hounds were coming un the run, and round t h e bend of the road emerged a n excited but grimly determined lot of men of that stamp which makes a frontier, set jawed, lean vlsaged, and running with the long, loping stride of those accustomed to sustained violent exertion. Seigo, distracted and desperate, took a few steps in either direction, uncertain which way to turn, and then discovered but a short distance below a boat in which lay a pair of oars. It was the only way t o gain a moment's respite from those great Two of the Men on the Beach Knelt Down and Aimed Their Rifles, dertone which his consciousness told him could have but, one quarry. He knew in an instant that the boy had betrayed him, and that he, Count Seigo, a nobleman of Japan and descendant of the Samurai, was being hunted by dogs like a Wild beast of the woods. For a few minutes he ran in a panic, taking no heed of direction, and bent only on gaining time to think, and putting space between him and his pursuers. A tangle of undergrowth compelled him to stop and seek for avenues through the wilderness. He ran down what seemed an old deserted road; but on neither aide could he And a place favoring a change of course. He was doubling back along the side of a triangle, and was so close at one time to the hounds that, he momentarily expected them to break cover, drop the scent afforded by the handkerchief and cut. across to where he was. He could even distinguish the shouts of the men behind, continually encouraging the animals in the chase, and heard one exclaim: "It's the Jap, all right, ov he wouldn't have lit out so quick!" His teeth came together with a click at. this confirmation of his suspicions, and now he realized that wherever an officer of the law was posted warning had been given of his coming. He swore that he would yet escape, and urged himself in the name of his country to rush ahead; and thus for many minutes the fate of Japan rested on a race between bloodhounds and a fugitive who tore headlong through tha undergrowth, careless of thorns nrhich reached out and scarred hia brutes which, with bellies low to the ground, with lolling jaws and flaming eyes, whose red he could discern, were closing in on him. H e made three or four frantic leaps and threw himself into the craft, shoving it off almost as the animals were upon him, and then with maniacal energy threw the oars Into the locks and bent himself double pulling against thorn Even then at the last he experienced one brief moment of exultation as he heard the swish of parted waters against the bow and saw the space widening between him and the beach on which stood his baffled pursuers. He saw the men halt on the shingle and heard them shouting to him; but never ceased pulling, hoping and half believing that he could put himself beyond range. It was Seigo against them all now, and he began to glow with triumph, not knowing the character of those men of the west who still gave him a chance for his life. Drunk with excitement, he shouted back a taunt. In his own tongue. Two of the men on the beach knelt down and aimed their rifles calmly and steadily at that moving target ' which was drawing away. They were as cool as they would have been if coveriag a grazing deer in the hills. The rising sun made of the Japanese a fair mark, lighting np even at that distance his sneering face. There were two quick puffs of smoke, which rose simultaneously into the air and floated away in little wisps, two short sharp reports, and Seigo sprang to hia feet, dropped his hold on the oars, and clutched his breast in agony, whirled round in his wildly bobbing craft, and then » l ° w l r * f c l $ d *<«*•?* *rtrr«ff* into the Wa^ergiff the'scmtid,-hfe days of effort ^erWnMed' lri fle!<kt t n o T t t l ittiastfh* Jt>nJijAd.

No word had come Irom Seigo fto bid h e j pause. The niott formidable armada that ever sailed the seas, attended by lighters that were to provide coal, and accompanied by transports conveying an army of men, steamed away to the laud of easy conquest. In the hope of striking terror Into the hearts of those they would subdue, the Japanese announced their purpose, and gave a somewhat exaggerated account of the forces being sent. The newspapers of t h e Wotld teemed with stories of the sailing of this monster fleet, told how all Japan had shouted "Banzai!" described the flower garlanded maids who aang gay songs, and pictured the remarkable modesty and valor of the admirals in command. In uome quarters of tne globe great sympathy was expressed for the United States, which apparently had no chance whatever fn such un unequal contest, aad was foredoomed to calamity and dissolution. The wiseacres of, European jpuwera, rose as. a unit and told how for more than 50 years it had been repeatedly pointed out that the over-sea colossus was facing destruction through neglect of her navy. Monarchical adherents saw deeper into,Jfite cause of a nation's obliteration, asserting that the proof had again been given to the world that a republican form of government was one which, by its very lack of cohesion and unwieldiness, could not exist. Other advanced thinkers, who looked far into the future, began a discussion as to the final outcome, what partition would be made of the conquered territory, and whether Japan would hold it as a colony for her own surplus population under a regulation colonial gubernation. English writers expressed gravp doubts as to Japan's ability to conduct colonies successfully, and were rather of the opinion that the country should be given to Great Britain, whose remarkable success in India and elsewhere had made her the fountainhead in this branch of government. Xew maps of the world were published in the most progressive periodicals, and souvenir buttons were sold in the streets of Tokyo depicting a very valiant little Japanese soldier kicking Uncle Sum into the sea and taking possession of his land. All the world bowed down to do honor to the "brave little biown men," and many aggressive powers regretted that they had r.ot been tiie first to think of taking possession of the United Stares, which their statesmen sometimes sj>oke of us being a nice little country iuid capabl" under reasonable rule of becoming quite a place. The nation under discussion remained in tha s a » ^ astounding condition of silence ami inaction. At llrs: it bad seemed that a clash along the Canadian border was inevitable. The massing of such great bodies of troops in such a position appeared almost a threat, and Great Britain in the first instance began hurriedly concentrating forces at points where they would be available In case of attack; but as day after day passed with no forward move and no action save that of preventing the passage of any person or the transmission of any communication alarm gave way to bewilderment. Canadian secret service men who succeeded In entering the camps of the soldiers soon returned to report that apparently the troops knew no more of the reason for their being stationed there than did the world at large. ^ In the meantime there gathered into the sounds, bays and harbors of foreign ports American vessels of war, which came to anchor and remained. On board these ships were the most disconsolate body of officers and men that, were ever collected in hulls. The last orders any of them had received had been made so positive, so plain j and unequivocal, that, they had no choice other than to obey. They had been commanded to gain these neutral berths and under no circumstances to leave them. They were not even per mitted to assume the slate color which betokens war on the waters, and therefore retained their dress of im- ; maculate white. They, too, seemed under the ban, and. like war doga in ! leash, strained irnpotently for action, j Nor was there nn officer in all these | idle and scattered ships who did not j wish himself on the waves of the Pa- | elfle, across which the enemy's fleet • was now forging. The time advanced until the Japan- [ ese warships were due to arrive at Honolulu, where they were to report, coal and prepare for the final struggle. The cable between Hawaii and Japan, now in possession of the mikado's operators, continued its daily reports of most favorable weather; hut still no squadron hove In sight.

Did you ever hear of such a foolish thing? When my train came Iin this morning I went right over to the jail and saw the gentleman In charge and explained it all to him and he said that he would like to let Harry out, if he could, but that I would have to see you and explain to you. I know ho'd have dene it if he could, because he seemed a real kindhearted man. He said that he had a son about Harry's age an,d knew just how I must feel and he was sure there was some mistake, and—" "Bnt, madam, what is your son's name?" asked Billy, his tone somewhat mollified. "Why, Harry Ainsworth. And now that I've made it clear to you gentle men you'll have bim let out right away, won't you?—because I want to start back home to-night and take him with me.

"TeB, sir." ""Well—a—he does not seem to be charged with stealing a raaor." "Oh! I'm so glad, and then you'll—" "Bowers was arrested for stealing the razor and," continued Billy, not. feeling just, right about the throat, "and—a—Harry Ainsworth, I see, is charged with stealing a purse containing $50 from one of the guests of the hotel." "Not at all! Not at all, sir. I saw the newspaper myself—or the clipping rather—-anrl.^t said that Harry wae accused bf soiling a razor—and when 4? h.ad a razpr, too.

"But," commenced Billy, then he ^paused; the going was getting pretty heavy for him by thin time; he looked ai the other men. The foreman was looking out of the window, the manufacturer had picked up hls ''cigar, which had gone out, and, after putting the wrong end of it in Ms mouth, laid it down again; there was no hope for Billy in the others, so he lunged ahead.

The manufacturer coughed a little and said: "There's no use talking, if a fellow wants to.be sure he's rid of the hay fever he must stay away until after thV fifteenth of Ootober." In another minute the room was vacant. Billy reached home just in time to help "tuck the boy in." While he was reading the paper after supper he looked up at the sweet-faced woman on the other aide of the table and said: "Don't think I'll run for another term as prosecutor, Mary." A moment or two later he added: "And, dear, we muBt be very' careful to know with whom the boy plays." Where Forests Die Hard. That is the one astounding thing in this whole region of northern Maine, the regenerative power of the forest. Men with axes have been hacking at the giants of the wood up here for two centuries and more. The goliaths have been laid low, indeed, yet for one tree that stood on a given space along the hillsides and in the valleys of Number One a century ago five stand to-day. They are giants no more, it is true, but they are splendid trees, and just as the Lilliputians might prevail where Gulliver was bound, so these trees hold their owl against man and even press in on his clearings and wipe them out. There must be many more lumbermen with axes along the Macwahoc, the Moluncus and the Mattawamkeag before thV* besuitMjsd region will fail of its forest. Paraguayan "Sugar Plant," An herb, called by the nativae caa ehe, but bbtanlcally Eupatorium rebaudianum, grows wild in Paraguay. It is remarkable for its sweetness. Indeed, the native name means the "sugar plant." It grows along the borders of the river Amambahl, and Attains a height of only about five inches. The smallest bit of this plant when placed upon the tongue produces a surprisingly sweet savor, which, it; is said, lasts for hours. The saccharine power la much greater than that, of sugar. Recent investigation indicates that the nectareous element in this plant, closely resembles that of the licorice root. Walking Backward. Not long ago a man of 02 walked backward from Macclesfield marketplace to the Crescent at Buxton. He covered the whole distance of 12 miles in three hours 14 minutes 45 seconds, or 15 minutes 15 seconds under the wagered time. In 1S75 Alcock (that was the man's name), performed the same feat in two hours 44 minutes.— Pall Mall Gazette. rr« to* opentfott * » LenaV. natoJd-sslBsry from Is* Myd< t^oa was the only chance I hhd,sswtX GjMdedHsJmoatMmuchasOesvth, ' ?*$*> ds»y I read how other woman b M W a cured byI*di*K.

Now Soroers Point is sep a rated from Ocean City by the Great Egg Harbor bay, four mites wide, and furrowed at one stretch by the' sweet of the current as it rounds Beasley's Point, bound Inland. The folk along the seashore looked at Ocean City across the bay and then at the two swimmers sporting in the water! < Gould they do it? The challenge was passed, and, accompanied by a launch to help in case of trouble, the two started on their long swim. At first the waves parted easily before them and their lithe limbs struck out in unison. Then they met the strong current sweeping on it's way from Beasley's Point. Miss Swanson found the waves rougher. Swimming became an effort, then an impossibility. Hager, by her side, no (iced her exhaustion and called to the launch. But—and perhaps it was only a whim of the little blind of love—the engine of the launch would not work Hager realized the danger for Miss Swanson, and, telling her to rest her hands on his shoulders, began swim ing for a place where the quietness of the water told him there was a sandbar. All but exhausted he reached if with his burden. The water was only nhoulder high and the two rested there until the launch was able to reach them.

Sunday there was a large turnout of people at all services and the pastor preached two sermons on thanksgiving the one in tbe morning being one of the best ever heard in this church. It was on the missionary line as well. The missionary envelopes were circulated to be handed in at the Thanksgiving prayer meeting thie evening or the Sunday following. This will indicate to a greater or Iqn degree just how thankful we are for the blessings God is bestowing on us. The best way to give thanks and enjoy it is to make someone else happy. There will he a special prayer meeting this evening to take the form of the revival spirit also one Friday evening. Let all who possibly can attend both these services. Sunday morning next special meetings wilt commence and continue all through the week. Spread the ne^s, some yourself and invite all your friends and neighbors. Rev. Hawks of Albion will spend a week with Rev, Littlejohn and assist him in the revivals beginning Sunday evening.
