DIAMONDS AND THE POTATO. Precious Stones Add Nothing to the World's Real Wealth. The discovery in the Transvaal of a diamond valued at $2,500,000 inspires M. Harduin in Le Matin to ask whether the precious stone represents new capital—that is, a new source of wealth. | "The only real capital," he says, j "is that which gives birth to—new--j wealth directly to the profit of its : owner and indirectly to the profit of j the community. This is what will | happen*— When4h«=eompaAy^ owning, the diamond sells it it will receive j money. This money it will IhvWrand \ lay by the interest. But since the < purchaser, who has parted with $2.- i 300,000, will lay by nothing, = it will come to the same thing. The whole'! operation, therefore, is reduced to a; simple shitting of capital. | "This conclusion follows: Billions : of dollars' worth of diamonds may be dug out of the earth and the wealth ' oC the_who!e human.race willnot be \ increased by a single cent, foF~lhi"s [ capitaLjdces not really exist.

I have found that it is possible to \ learn much from the wet places in ; the fields in springtime as to the kind i of drainage that is necessary. We find on some of our farms that the ; water in the soil takes certain courses in the lower strata and only shows i the wettest places when the soil is , full of water, which usually occuis ; in springtime. We cannot always tell j 1 y levels just what part of the farm | needs drainage most. There are, we I will say, two spots equally low and \ each equally able to be drained. But ( in one the water goes off quickly in j a wet time and in the other remains ; tor weeks. One is tapped by a layer of .coarse gravel, j.vhile the other is | simply surrouhffeTl by sjil little perj vious. It is evident that the latter ! place should receive the first attenj tion. Watching the fields as the water disappears wJM make it possible to put the first drainage work W'VG.-C it will da the most good. Emanuel Shaw. Dade County, Missouri. Seed Testing on the Farr,:. To nnd out whether seeds are capable of producing plants requires neither eypert knowledge nor special «« aratus. Satisfactory material is to be found in every farm home, for making germination tests of pracU cally any kind of teed used on the farm. The simplest and most convenient way to test coed of corn and other cereal grains ai;d most of the root crop a/id larger vegetable seeds is to place a number of them—say one hundred—between pieces of moistened blotting-paper, Canton' flan^ ! nel or cloth; set them in an ordinary I dinner plate and invert another plate i to cover them. The seed should b? kept- moiC\ but not wet. The tem- | peraturc of lus average farmhouse ! living room would be quite suitable. , but some care should be taken to •( guard against excessive heat or cold. All gocd L*rong seed of corn, cereal grains, clovers or timothy thus treated will have germinated at the end of five days. Very small seeds of tno j finer grasses, of some of the garden vegetables and of bee'ts or mangels may be germinated to better advantage by scattering them in a saucer (belonging to a flower pnt) that has j been soaked in water, and set on a ' cloth that should be kept damp, or in Character in Laughter.

The Parcels Post y*L That the interests opposed to the ' parcels post are much alarmed is shown by the violent editorials against the system, which are appearing in the prominent papers. These edi torials are doubtless inspired and paid for by the expree's company trust, and other organized .nterests that the parcejs post would doubtless in a degree injure. Some suggest that the parcels post is "rank socialism". The word "socialism" is used with more or less effect to alarm timid people. A parcels post no more savors ot socialism than a letter post. A number of cities supply their own water works, their own gas, electric li#trts-< and street railway systems to the great vantage oi the exchequer ot the and with a great lessening of rates to . all the inhabitants.

When I went out there 1 bad never heard of a (ilia, but after I bad seen one and its effect I never wanted to see another. One afternoon while riding past a house, or, rather, hut, belonging to one of the herders of a ranch near by I heard a clatter and, turning, saw a man come galloping down the road. A child about two years old had just come out of the house and was toddling across the road. The horseman paid no attention to it. I thought he didn't see the little fellow, but he did, for Just before reaching him he gave a whoop, cutting at him at the same time with his quirt. The child, too young to heed, stooped to pick up something that pleased its baby fancy. The horseman rode straight over him. . The boy's mother came to her door just in time to see what had occurred. With a shriek she rushed to her child, picked him up and ran with him into the house. I would hav* followed to administer to her, but there were others with her, and, to tell the truth, I had no heart for the work. The man rode on to a saloon-fartherjip the road, where he dismounted and went inside.

It was a terrible but deserved retribution: One day he found relief, and the next the child he hud sought to kill toddled out, and all who saw him rejoiced that It was his would bo murderer and not he who had succumbed.

But what could I do? Any interference on my part must result either >h my death or that of the man who Intel committed the outrage. / I reported the matte/to the owner of the ranch, who told/me that the boy's father was in his employ and.was|_then_ away herding caitile. There was a feud between him and t and clespera^ vagabond who hail ridden down the child to avenge some fancied Injury. When the father returned one or the other would doubtless blje the dust. "And if the father falls there will be two7 victims Instead of one," I remarked. / "We can't help that out here," replied my Informant. "There's.too little law to cover such cases." The next morning while riding over the plain I came upon the child's mother. She carried a stick and a coarse bag and was evidently looking for something. I did not see her face, for her back was turned. Suddenly I saw her raise the stick and strike-at something on the ground. In" a few moments she picked up what resembled a young alligator, holding it by the tip of the tall, dropped it in the bag, tied up the bag's mouth and carried her 'burden away, holding It apart from her. 'Then she turned and came toward me. I would have liked to ask her what she had been about, but there was a look In her face that decided me not to question her, and she passed on without seeming to be aware of my presence. Curiosity got the better of me, and I turned and followed her. She went to the saloon up the road, and before reaching it I saw a man asleep on the porch, though I could not see who he was. The woman drew near him stealthily, pausing occasionally, with her eye fixed on him, till at last, coming upon him from a point where he -could not see her, she untied the mouth of her bag, held it above him, and the alligator thing it contained fell on his breast. The man started up and on seeing what had awakened him gave a cry as piercing, as full of despair, as had been given by the woman when her child was run down. I saw him struggling with something that had fastened upon one of his hands and finally throw it-from him. It crawled away, and I saw it no more. The woman turned and walked tow-ard her home. I had seen the dreaded Gila monster. The woman had learned that her" enemy, was asleep on the saloon porch and, going out on the plain, had found a Gila. When attacked the monster feigned to be dead.

Two of tlieni wished to be married. The paper* In the case were legal, so Mr. Williams performed the ceremony. The other couple acted as bridesmaid and best man. The groom was the son of a well known man in the town, and as the happy couple were leaving the parsonage the young man whispered to Mr. Williams: "Just charge it to father, parson.

T l \ ot Plr-ckney CONTINUED.FROM LAST WEEK Congressman Foss who is representative from tbe district in which Francis Willard lived, said the state of Illinois presents this statue as a tribute to the life of Francis E. Willard and in a large and truer sense as a tribute to a woman and the magnificent progress she has made under our free institutions. *It might be asked why should the state of Illinois, which has produced so many illustrious men offer the statue of a woman, the first to be placed in yonder hall among warriors and stategmeffrpmneers and discoverers who have wrought mightily for their country on the field of battle, in the halls of Congress on the frontier and in civil life? The Illinois legislature, without the slightest disrespect to her great sons, in its wisdom believed that the time had come when woman should be honored and when her statue should be placed in the Ameican Pantheon, and j who shall say that woman has no right there?

Her cloak had slipped from on* them. Small blame to h i m ; doe* "not a strong man always admire a beautiful woman? It required a s l u r p kick, which Gil meant to be secretly given, but was only too evident, 4 o - m a k e him ^wrtl himself together and drop his eyes abashed before Gil's stern oues. His consternation ' a n d ' loud "ouch!" caused tfcejjt>ett.to laugh; even the lady smiled.' Upon which he heartened hiiuself to another peek, but Gil would ^have none of that. He marshaled the men quickly and hastened their exit from the room. 1 Gil was following, but when he heard the next words of Lady Felton's he stopped. "One of your men betrayed you," she said. " Tis Jim Scrugs, the traitor!" Gil cried, and he put himself through the opening after Toiraine and his men. I felt pity ?,tir within me iox the fellow, traitor though he was. I knew what the reckoning would be when "You are wet. Lady Felton. come nearer the fire." I said, and took hpr the floor some day—but t h e night being fine and I wanted a r u l e to blow away the megrims." I was amused a t my sweetheart. She was piqued about something. At my look of incredulity—I glanced at the window where the rain beat against the pane with a clicking s o u n d ^ s h e instantly added: "Oh, it h a s . only been raining a short time. Moreover D r e a m , H o u s e was so dreary; Aunt Elaine had'gone to bed, that I was like to die of ennui, so I welcomed Nell's message." "You need make no more excuses, Lady Felton," I retorted. "Could you not have ser.t some o n e ? " "There was no one," she replied. - ''Nell wbuld--*e*er J i a v e f o r g i v e n me if word had not been gotten to you." " N e l l s a charming creature," said I stung by my lady's way of putting it. "Charming indeed," she admitted loyally. Then: "I see, sir, that you, too, * follow the fashion set by the King. Wouldst rival him? Have a care." "Rival the King?" I exclaimed. "Not I." "You would not be the only one. Really she has enough lovers," she said, with a shamed lilt in her voice. "Amen to that," I said fervently. "She and Lady Felton have between them, 'tis said, scoured all London till there is not a creature upon two legs .but—swears fidelity-to either one or the other. London is agog with their amours. In Nell's case it may be true. hnt jas for Rosemary Allvn^ Lady of Felton, I think she is too proud to give her lips to be kissed 0tl hand in u.ine. "Did y n i not understand m e ? " she queried with dilated eyes. "I said the gurrds would be here in twenty mfnutfvj_ or less." _ "T1 .?nty minutes is a long time," I ans-.« .red as I drew her before the rii>* *ud seated her. ' i'as your prison then %so enjoyby any one but the man she loves." I looked down deep into her heart through clear mirrors, and what. I saw made me tingle through all my being .responsive^ — "I believe you are right, sir," she said. Then—"But I have not told you how Nell found out that the inn was to be surrounded and you recaptured, ] *.re priitm'-r, and he himself hastened to t h e King to explain the outrage to him His Majesty, being for the time a t outs with Lord Jeffreys, never gave him the chance for explanations, but enjoyed the Johe witl* i!ie rest. Now my lord, you know, 1B rightfully hated by many; BO tneir contempt was too much for him, anu with aa face purple with rage he left the room in a huff. His Majesty, however, laughed another kind of laugh when, later dining with Nell, it waA brought to his notice what Lord Jeffreys had signed—the pardon of a young man, Quentin Waters by name, whom he himself had had confined in Ludlow. The way of this was, a young man (it was no doubt Jim Scrugs) importuned to see the King. Now every one knows that nothing puts the King in an ill-humor so quickly as to be disturbed in bis amours. .But t h e man insisted BO persistently upon an interview' t h a t they at last took him to the King, where he explained all, and that you were to be caught napping here." She stopped a m o m e n t I did not feel so much pity for the fellow as I had. He had been taught to know at Long Haut how summarily traitors were dealt with. "Nell tried to make the King still see it in the light of a joke," she continued. "She brought her most daring mimicry into play; but cajole she ever so much it was of no avail. The gross insult to his Majesty must be avenged. He gave the order for your rearrest. Nell, finding' she could not turn the King frdm his set purpose, sent me word by Mister Arnold, who wished to come with ine, but I insisted upon his going back, for after your escape some one might remember that he had left the ball room and that he was your friend." She had finished. A 480-AC RE FARM Y I E L D S 26 PER CE7NT PROFIT IN A YEAR.

"G>d forbid!" I muttered. "I am afraid you will take cold—you are wet." I t o u c h e d her dress lightly with my hand. "Poof, no, only my cloak," she said; "I'm as dry—as an empty glass." She glanced at the array of empty bottles and glasses still upon the table. "How stupid of me." I cried, and rapping on the table I ordered wine and supper for the lady. "No. no. only a glass of wine," she said, "I am thirsty with the ride." "I should think you well might be," said I. I poured her a glass of wine which the landlord immediately brought. As 1 hold her cloak before the flame to dry it I devoured her sweet face with eager eyes. 1 would have taken her hand again, but I saw that my proud lady would have no love making in a tavern. Indeed h e r eyes looked so coldly into mirie 1 wondered if perchance I had dreamed dreams and seen visions four nights agone in t h a t old mansion of Lord Felton's? "I take it as a great honor.

Poor me. is kept at home, 'In sooth,' sayeth ma tante, 'it is not seeming in an Allyn to take up with all the wild doings of a dissolute c o u r t . ' " She mimicked Lady Dwight to a nicety. '^So I am kept at home as close as a babe in swaddling clothes. Moreover she has heard rumors that the King has cast his eye upon a new face which suits his fancy. It was at t h e last ball that the King commanded that I dance with him, so she draws her inference from this, that mine m u s t be the face he admires. Her eyes are ever upon me and I am kept from court functions, lest I fall a victim to his Majesty's fascinations. She regards Mistress Nell with slight favor, and as for Lady Castlemaine she is quite beyond the pale. Well to continue, in the early hours of the ball the rodm was agog with a scandal. Lord Jeffreys had been halted in Epping forest by a gang of men—highwaymen, anrl made to sign a paper it was supposed for a large sum of money. They left him tied and gagged in the Forest Lodge, -not a very dignified manner for his lordship. A message revealing this state of.- affairs some- X riTose adorable ones set about With lace. "It was forced upon me. I could scarce help but oome when *so sweet an one as Nell Gwyn sent me word, and asked mo to see that you had warning. Indeed, I would not have come even for her—she may tak« care of her own lovers; I have oft'told her that sitting upon so many SUK;!S -she'll e'en find herself upon how came to the King's-ear,- a n d he sent to the lodge to find out if it were true. They found my Lord Jeffreys tied fast and madder than a baited bear. I assure you the tale lost none in the telling and 'retelling as It ran from mouth to mouth in the ball room, provocative of much laughter and merriment. It seems that it was hot for a sum of money btit t o e release of a prisoner that he had signed t h e paper. .His l o r d s h i p freed at once sent a constable to apprehend "and it must be nearly up." "Twenty minutes is all too short for me," I returned. "I would have it twenty times twenty, and times t h a t again—and—so as to stretch those minutes somewhat I sliall take you home." "Torraine can escort the lady back and meet us at t h e marsh west of the town," put i n Gil as if he had settled TRe"quesi lorn "The noises are at the south wall, by the old well. It lacks a T e w mlhutes of "the time:1' "You have planned very well, Gil," said I, "save in one particular, I, not Torraine, will take the lady back to town." "No, no," Rosemary cried; "Gil is right. You might be captured on the way." I smiled a t her, nor was I to be persuaded from .my purpose. Gil opened his mouth to argue the point, but I cried: "Quick,. they are here—to your men. They are evidently sure of their man, they come with so robust a tread." He rushed from the room.' I blew out the light. Taking .both tho lady's cloak and my own, I grasped her hand. Thus we followed mine host of the Tabard through a pantry door, down the kitchen garden path to the south w*all, where he immediately left us, hastening back. Rosemary and I, standing hand in V/hat a Mercer County (Ohio) Farmer Received from One Year's Crop. E x t r a c U from an interesting letter flora P. H ftynhard, of Starbuck, Manitoba, Canada, gives an excellent idea of the prosperity of those who have gone from the United States to Canada. He says: "I bought, August, 1963, 480 acres of land, paying $12,000- for it. We threshed 2,973 bushels of wheat and between 1.200 and 1,300 bushels of oats and barley from 20O acres. But part of the wheat went down before filling and was not harvested except for hay. The crop was worth at threshing time, $3,000. Besides 120 acres laying idle except a timothy meadow, which is not included in this estimate. Counting the value of the pioduct and the increase of value of land will pay me more than 25 per cent on the investment. Two brothers in the same neighborhood bought 160 acres each six years ago. They have not done a single thing to this land except to fence it and break and cultivate about one-half of it. Harvested last year 28 bushels wheat per acre. This year 27 bushels per acre. They can get any day $25 per acre. These are only a few of many hundreds of such chances. It looks like boasting, but truth is justifiable and the world ought to know it, especially the home-seeker. I know of quite a few farmers t h a t have made for* tunes in fiom 10 to 20- years, retired v-ith from $20,000 to $100,tH)0. Writing concerning another district in the Canadian West, S. L. Short says: "Dear Sir—I have to inform you that I have just returned from the Ci-rrot River Country in Saskatchewan, where I located land of the very QOOO ADVICE FOR A L L .

"Dogs have a variety of gaits," said the boss of the kennels, "therefore 1 can't understand why it is that people who describe a certain style of locomotion always call it a dog trot. Judging by the universality of that expression, a body would think that n dog never moves any other way than on a trot. But he does. All the gaits belonging to other four-footed animals are also his. He runs, he lopes, he even racks and paces, so when a. person in a hurry fails into a peculiar kind of canter, there would be just as much sense in speaking of his gait as a dog run or a dog gallop, once in a while, as always to call it a dog trot." , Weave Silk at Home.

The Stone primary bill was before the house for three hours W e d n e s d a y and after a lively—scrap w a s referred back t o the c o m m i t t e e on elections by a vote of 52 to 41, not a happy augury for the amendment of the bill, or that anything further will be done with it. T h e Dill w a s reported about three w e e k s ago and c a m e up a t a special order. It was claimed that s o many imperfections w e r e lodged i n t h e bill that the measure would bo of doubtful value, even if the doubt a s to £ e constitutionality of t h e clause providing that t h e bill Should b e submitted t o the people before becoming a law, were dispelled. It w a s urged that t h e Republican platform adopted under strenuous conditions a t Grand Rapids did n o t propose t o g o s o far a s t h e bill proposed, and that a bill for local option shoo Id take its place. The situation Is this: T h e house a s constituted i s against direct nominations for all s t a t e candidates and U n i t e d S t a t e s senators and such a hill properly framed would n o t pass. The time i s Blipping away and t h e preparation of a bill that will satisfy the administration and pass will be a work of several w e e k s , in fact the April elections will pass into history before definite action i s taken. During t h e debate KepresentaTTve uaioraith, w h o h a a made the motion t o refer the bill back, said: "We are breaking n o party pledges.

"I s e e the rjentleman from Calumet doesn't want to a n s w e r the question," said Holmes. "Let me Interrupt," shouted Galbraith.

In a clump of brushwood near the village of Waucedih. where it is supposed to have lain since th» morning of November 27 last, the mutilated corpse of Donald J. Tellier, the alleged murderer of Albert NowsbipT was found within 100 yards of the cabin in which the crime of four mouths ago was committed. The body was suspended about three feet from Ihe ground and flrnily wedged in ihe crotch of a dead tree. There was a double-barreled breech-loading shotgun pointing directly at the corpse. The barrels of the gun were heavily encrusted with rust, while in the breach were two exploded shells. PYom the rather peculiar aspect of the surroundings and in view of certain testimony elicited at the inquest held shortly after the murder of Nowship last November, a jury was convened and a verdict -of suicide rendered. The theory is that Tellier killed Xowship with one barrel of buckshot and immediately afterwards walked to a nearby spot and there, by a most bizarre method, emptied the contents of the remaining cartridge into his own breast. While the face anil neck of the corpse were horribly mutilated through the depreciations of prowling wild animals, the clothed portions of the body were well preserved, and Dr. Hernard W. .Tones, of Vulcan, who perfbrmed ihe autopsy, readily located the wound and the course taken by the charge of shot.

When they had satisfied their thirst, bound up their scratches, and laughed a little over little incidents in the affray, they began to parley with the prisoner, Quentin Waters by name.

"I sincerely hope the fates will keep hor from your room to-night until you are safe at home and snuggled in your bed," I said quite devoutly. "Oh! you must know that Aunt Elaine loves me dearly," she explained. "I can twist her about ray fingers as I can one of my rings." "As you do all who come near you," I affirmed. "Not so," she quickly retorted; "you yourself are not so amenable." "I?" I questioned in astonishment. "Is there anything I would not do for you, consistent with my honor?" "Then in earnest of what you say I have a request to make of you," she whispered: "Dear Rosemary, I beg of you not to hesitate," I pleaded. "I would borrow the locket you wear upon your breast," she said co- ' ! shall have it reset when I return— with the other jewels to deek my bride." "You are going?" she questioned. "To Long Haut on a sorrowful errand— to bury my father," I said. . "Your father is dead!" she exclaimed in an awe-stricken voice. "Yes," I TKplied, "I only learned the sad new* to-night from Oil.

After J have laid him to. rest among his ancestors in the old church of Long Haut, I will return, yes in five days I shall be here to finish a task, over which God forgive me!

Then after a slight pause: "It is late (Gil will be waiting, poor fellow; I have taxed his strength to the utmost)—although I long' to stay with you, I must be on my way—Good bye, good bye, sweet!" I took her in my arms and this time she did not deny me; I kissed her lips. I watched her into the house and waited until I heard the door close and heard her say, "Oh, Moffetf how you frightened m e ! " Then I turned and remounting my horse rode slowly out of the grounds.

The fog thickened. We rode close. My knees touched her horse's belly. I bethought me in such a fog there was no need to go in a roundabout way. "No one will be able to recognize us in this fog." I said, "we will ride for the bridge; we shall have time 1O <ross it before the guards will have reached it and can station men there —trust Gil for that." "Yet an I were you," she returned, "I would cover my face when, we do cross it, for who knows who may be flashing lights about."

"To show another scalp at your girdle, as they say the red men in America number their victims," I suggested. 'Tush, sir!" she cried. "Your comparison is odious." "But what matter it?" I continued; "I would all the world might know 1 am your lover." Certainly she should wear the locket; I hesitated not a moment upon •that point. It was a small thing to do for Rosemary—and I would take the paper out. Upon second thought I decided to let it remain where it was. She had guarded the other bit of paper so successfully, she should have the guarding of this one also.

"Master Arnold," I muttered, " 'tis a fine way to treat your guests—drink 'em under the table—first time in life —your wine's too newly drawn—too new I say. -Oh, my head's a s -heavy as a laggard's feet—No, no, my lord, the game is mine, mine, I say." So murmuring I awakened. I was dreaming=,J=-w€ts= atr- the l o d g e r a n d with Lord Felton was again playing Top-Working Apple Trees. Some time past there was an article in the Review, in regard to grafting old apple trees to make them productive, which I think is misleading. I have been engaged in the nkrsery business for the past fifty years\ and in that time have grafted a g^eat many old trees of nearly all varieties that grow in this" climate. If you have trees of good varieties that have become feeble and that have ceased to be productive, the best thing to do is to prune heavily and spread a good wagon load of manure around the tree. A great many make a mistake by throwing the manure in a pile near the tree. The fertilizing material that supports the tree and makes the fruit is taken up by the smali fibers at the extreme out end of the roots. The roots will extend outward from twelve to sixteen inches from the tree every year. So' a tree twenty years old should have the fertilizer scattered at a distance of not less than twelve feet. The large roots merely act as a conveyor of the fertilizer to the tree. But If your tree is thrifty and in healthy condition, but bears little fruit or of inferior quality, the best thing is to top-graft with some good variety j that bears in your locality, and, if I given good attention, it will bear i finely in three years. In top-grafting, cut all the limbs that have an upright j growth where they are from one-half EFFECTS OP PROSPERITY. In the six years at the country^ greatest prosperity, from 1897 to 1903» average prices of breadstulfs advanced 65 per cent., meats 23.1 per cent, dairy and garden products 50.1 per cent, and clothing 24.1. All these were products of the farmer and stockman who profited more than any other class of the community by these advance*. The miner benefited 4S2.1 per cent by that advance in the average price of metals. The only decrease in th+ average prices of commodities in that period, was in railway freight rates which decreased from .798 per tonmile in 1897 to .763 in 1903, a loss of 4.4 per cent. The report of the In* terstate Commerce Commission shows that the average increase in the pay of railroad employes In the period was a trifle above 8.5 per cent. >$•'. Two Wise Reflections.

"You idiot," I stormed, "will you keep still?" The figure came tip-toeing to my side. I yawned, and then rubbed my eyes. It was "pretty Alice Lynson," as you please. "You—you," I said wonderment in my voice. "Pretty Alice Lynson, on my life 'tis—pretty Alice Lynson," I repeated dryly, "what do you here?" "Oh. sir, sir." she blubbered, and with the tail of her gown she wiped away the tear from her eyes. "God in heaven but I am glad—I never thought to hear you speak rationally again." I looked at her inquiringly. "Kind sir," she said, "you have been most grievously hurt." "Hurl," I "repeated. "Yes," she nodded. "Struck up'on the head.

I questioned. "Here?" she repeated. " 'Tis hut a poor room that I rent from day to day." / "I see." I said whimsically, "I should have said how came I here?" "It is a long tale." she began, "and I am afraid the chirurgeon will not want me to talk to you for fear of your fever coming back." "Never mind the chirurgeon." said I "I am more like to die of impatience if you keep me long waiting. But first ask Gil to stop his jabbering there in the corner—tell him to come here—why doesn't he come here— perhaps I can induce him to satisfy my curiosity, since you are so reluctant." She did not move from my side. "Gil, Gil," I cried. I marveled that my voice gave out so small a sound. "Oh. sir," she said. "I'm afraid you will do yourself harm. Drink this, please, and then I will tell you what I know." She took a cup from among the bottles on a chair near the bed, and put it to my lips. I meekly drank.

Of all housewives in 10urope probably the German is the hardest worked, • m l of all European mothers the German practices most completely the art of swathing and padding her baby and of putting it on the shelf. The German baby is swaddled In a long, narrow pillow, which is made to meet completely round him, being tucked up over his feet and turned under his solemn chin. Three bands of gay blue ribbons are then passed round the whole bundle and tied in large. Horid bows about where his chest, his waist and his ankles may be supposed to be.

That mutilation should ever" have %'toeen adopted as a penalty by the Christian church one finds it difficult to be lieve, yet the ecclesiastical authorities Inflicted it for comparatively trivial of fenses. and several councils emphatically attempted to suppress It. Thus the thirteenth canon of the council of Mori da, in (Kid, deprived bishops and priests of the right of mutilating the servants of the church. The sixth canon of the council of Toledo, in dVo, while forbidding bishops to exercise exclusive Ju rlsdictiou in offenses Involving the capital penalty, also Interdicted them from ordering mutilation of the limbs, even in the case of their own serfs, and ordained that bishops violating this law should be deposed, excommunicated and denied the last rites of the church when In articulo mortis. The eighteenth canon of the council of Frankfort, in 704, forbade abbots to 'blind or mutilate their monks whatever might be the offense. - Pearson's Weekly. if'.'. % LookM A f t e r t h e C e u t s . A simple illustration will show the care that is taken of cents by one of the big banks of Chicago. Stamped postal cards are not used, and not one of the thousands of routine letters that are written every day is stamped or sealed until the whole routine mall of the day is assembled in the afternoon. Then all the cards and letters to one correspondent are put in a single en- -- v«4ope, and, except for letters from the officers and the like, the bank comes as near as possible to get its entire mail ip^ittTfTp7rTvf"2'TfFttts a i r mm*^ or a ce^t^ —for every postal card instead of often. paying 2 cents for a quarter of an ounce, as it would have to do if every .communication wore sealed and stamp • ed separately.

The fishing frog buries himself in the mud and lies partly -concealed in -weeds, where, with Ms huge mouth open, bo fishes for his dinner. On the back of his head then* are three spines, the longest of which he bends forward in front of his mouth, gently swaying it in the water. At last it attracts a young iisb, which makes a spring for the supposed worm, when—snap—the mouth is closed and Mr. Fishing Frog has had his dinner. The archer flsh catches his. dinner in quite a different way. Just out of his reach on the leaf of a plant growing on the river's brink rests a fly, basking in the sunlight.

Hur Two Smites [ O r i g i n a l ] Owen Harding possessed a genial dis position, whieJUwus concealed under a forbidding countenance. The comers of his moulh were drawn down, and when he smiled they refused, to be druwn up. The consequence was a mingling of a smile in the eye and a crusty look about the mouth that was by no means pleasing. Harding possessed a very g >od mind. l i e wais original and entertaining, but tins, especially among young people, counted for nothing. .When he perpetrated a witticism accompanied by what in another would have been a droll expression the result was a combination of smile, and acerbity that was very unpleasant. One girl only seemed to be able to chat with Harding without laughing at him, Rebecca Payne, b u t Miss Payne was the daughter of a poor clergyman and merely tolerated in society —well, because stfe had neither wealth nor that faculty of assumed graciousness to the members of her set which in society people is often .accompanied by liugraciousness to those v;ithout theiiv set. She was, however, intellectual, and some o f the more appreciative members took her up. But none of the socially prominent young men paid her any attention, and this was a backset for her. When it was noticed that the only attendant she could rely upon was Harding her fate, socially considered, was sealed. Harding's occupancy of the social position to which he was entitled was confined to one winter. The next society saw him no more. H e disappeared for live years. At the end of that period one of the aristocratic churches of the place where ho had been born ami reared needed a mblister. The "pillars" had heard of a young man, a Mr. Cuiumiugs, who was electrifying the elect in another city and sent him an invitation toimHtehr Ther**vwe>a+H$e«t lenma^ap^ pcared one Sunday morning in the pul- B e l l e f r A t j c n r t — W i r v e * . — -file P e r s i a n s believe that the wave* of the Persian gulf are caused by air entering caves which have subterranean outlets under the ocean. One •-/>' the most curious beliefs of all—one closely akin to a certain ancient oriental he'll belief—is that of the south sea Islanders According to their notion, the rolling of the sea Is-caused by a "thunder god." In old times this "thunder god" killed the chief deity of the islands and w a s confined under the ocean as a punishment. His rolling with rage causes the waves. , • - , , . , , •• ' Fhrigtrul Suffering Relieved ! L e n g t h o f t h e L n « .

A. Siyler's d r u g store, tfuar ant' ed. pit, and the moment certain members of the congregation looked at him they whispered to one another, "How like Owen Harding and yet how unlike him:" Mr. Cumtnings after announcing his text closed the Bible and without a scrap of memoranda delivered the finest sermon that had ever been heard in that church. Once when using a humorous illustration he smiled. That smile captivated every woman present, and there was not a girl unbespoken who did not resolve t h a t , if Mr. Cummings were called and accepted the call she would set her cap for hint, for it was known that he was both unmarried and rich. When the congregation left the church there was n- hum of praises intermingled with query auid counter query from those who had known Harding as to whether he and Cummings could possibly be one person. Then it was learned that the clergyman's name was Harding-Cummings, the latter name having been taken to fulfill the provisions of a fortune. This settled it that Cummings was none other than Owen Harding, who had been the laughingstock of his acquaintances for a diabolic smile that had since become seraphic. A thousand tongues were set babbling not at the young minister's eloquence, but at the transformation of his facial expression. As people once a&ked concerning a newly risen literary star, "Where did she get that style?" asked •>;:,• ,,.' ., ,, Y,; ';euMomon smoking after a dinner parly, "did Harding get rid of that diabolic expression he once wore?" "I can enlighten you." said a prominent siu'geci. "I carve.1 It otit of him." At the moment the reverend gentlen a n referred to entered the room and overheard the reply. "The doctor made a very good Job )f my case," he said. "I'm thinking 3f employing him to make a similar transformation In a psychological way imong the more hardened sinners erf Day congregation." F.

Mr. Cummings became the pastor of the church, and fifty-young ladies in j and out of the congregation, all socially prominent, made a dead set for him. It must not be supposed that Mr. Cummings' eloquence or his heavenly smile would have alone led these young ladies to covet bim for a husband. It was the eloquence and the smile supported by his great wealth. The minister showed no preference for any of them, which made the race all the more exciting. Young women who five years before had made no attempt to conceal their laughter at his unfortunate expression when he made a droll remark did not now scruple to remind him of their enjoyment of what they called his sparkling wTit. The clergyman smiled pleasantly on them, although one of his best friends remarked that it was to be hoped he had his old smile at home, where he might put it on after some of these flattering reminders. Mr. Harding-Cummings had been pastor of the church a year, and the battle of the beauties for his possession was at its hottest when the brigade was panic stricken by the announcement that he had ijoue away to be married.

Particularly Adapted for Crossing Rivers, Gorges and the Like. A novel railway system has been invented by Abraham Abelson of New York city. <Thls system is particularly'adapted for crossing rivers, gorges, ravines and the like, says the Scientific American, and it is designed to effect an economy over existing systems of transportation. It consists of a tower at each anchorage built of skeleton framework, in the center of which an elevator operates. Cables are suspended from a cradle at tho tower top and anchored near the base of tho opposite tower. Pivoted counterweights are provided, which serve to keep the cable taut and to compensate for any variations in cable lengths. These weights also remove the lateral pressure of the towers, producing instead a downward pressure thereon. The system does not require any elevated approaches to the bridge entrances. The transporter cars are suspended from swivel trucks, which travel on the cables." In practice a car is raised by means of the elevator to the top of a tower, t h e trucks being turned so as to c l e a r l h e , cables. When the top of the t o w e r i b r e a c h e d the trucks are turned back to normal position, so that on descent of the elevator they will rest on the cables supporting the car. The car thereupon descends by gravity to the opposite tower. The cars are entirely independent of each other and the speed of the descending car can be regulated at will, thus affording a saving of time over such systems as em- j ploy two counter-balancing cars.

Four hundred persons were killed or injured Saturday by the, collapse of a new water reservoir in> course of construction in Madrid, Spain. The catastrophe caused a profound sensation throughout the city. All work was suspended and the people flocked to the scene. A workman who was injured says the collapse was so sudden and complete that it was impossible to tell what happened. The. men at work on the reservoir, however, anticipated trouble, as a fortnight ago three arches collapsed and cracks developed in four others. King Alfonso was shooting at Carabanchel when he heard pf the disaster and immediately repaired to the scene. His arrival was the signal for ovations from the crowds. The king was deeply moved and insisted upon personally supervising the relief measures. The structure which collapsed was a huge quadrilateral one, 350 by 150 metres, built on arches.

A resolution was passed advising the legislatures of the different statfs to invest the national government with their jurisdiction over the public waters of the states as far as regards fishing. The resolution, was introduced by Samuel 1'ullerton, of Minnesota, and has the indorsement of the national fisheries commission. The following recommendations will be submitted to the legislatures of the United States and Canada represented today: *The closed season on I^ake.Erie, Detroit river, Lake St. Clair and St. Clair river be from November 15 to April 15, a closed sea-.ori for all fish.

"I do not know/' she said, and shook her head. "I am sorry if Martin annoys you, sir; he is restless today— 1 cannot quiet him," she added. "Poor devil," I ejaculated, as holding my heavy bead tightly between ray hands I was able to follow what he was reciting. '•'Oh, God! Oh, God!'—'How waary, stale and unprofitable'—'Get thee to a "nunnery'—'Alas, poor YoricU'—'He^ poisons him in the garden.'n "Poor devil!" I repeated; "a mad Hauilet truly" Turning to Alice I said courteously: "1 see in some way unaccountable to me I have intruded upon your llOSpiialily~I _ajn watting in knnw | why?" ' I will tell you if you promise to talk no more, only listen," she added. I assured hereof my willingness to listen, and she began: "It is now going on the fifth day since Martin and I found you all uncons< ions—dead, I thought—but I will ibegin at the beginning. You see, Martin and I were coming into London— I know, sir, it is risky—but I dirt ?o long to see the town, before I left it never to return, for you must know we are on our way to Bristol to sail for America. I thought I could easily stay hidden here tor a few days." "Yen mean to say that you will •burden yourself with a daft person in a now land?" I found myself asking. "What else can 1 do. sir?" she quer- 1ed: "I could not leave him here alone —lie has no one-else in the wurtit save me—it would-be cruel to. leave him alone." "Nothing else." I replied, not willing to spoil her fine charity. "Wo had not come Into London yet, i when a fog "closed in upon us—such a fo? as London had not seen in many a day.' she said. "We were and I would leave Martin and you—a madman and a corpse—and go to inquire the way of the first passerby I could meet, my heart thumping in my breast for fear I should ask some evil inclined person and be directed wrong. Thus, after hours of wander* ing hither and thither within a radius of a few miles, we came to Mag's. She is a charwoman," she explained, "who used to clean at the old Drury when I acted there. I was once able to do her a slight service, and for the sake of those old days she took us in." My brain was not idle—the night of the fog after I had left Rosemary I had been struck upon the head and •rendered unconscious. Before the jniscreantsjbad attempted_the^dastardly deed, however, they had made sure of the identity of their victim, for I remembered a light being swung before my face, and an.unknown, voice crying, "It is he." Who had struck the blow? What was the object? I had been searched—1 saw from the wall where my clothes hung some of the pockets still lay turned out. For what? Not money, Alice was positive, for there was plenty in the pockets which had been left in their original position. For the paper given me by my father? I had told no one but the King of that. I bade Alice bring me my coat when I recollected that I had given the locket with the note still intact within it to Rosemary. For the other paper, perhaps? WTell, I chuckled with satisfaction, if it was njpaperthey W j r f i ^ t e r ^ h e x i ^ i L P Q i what they wished. I thank you, Alice." I said: *bvtt for you and Martin I might be by now food for the worms. Again I thank you. for I honestly believe that I owe my life to you." "Oh, sir," she cried, tears starting to Tier eyes—they seemed ever ready to flow upon the instant—"I am not worthv to take it. Did I not steal "It is enough, from your looks," be said dryljr. "Tell me how you succeeded in finding this hiding place?." I asked anxiously. "For what you have done others may do—and so Alice's safety be imperiled.' Ah! 'pretty Alice Lynson'—more petticoats," Gil said, laying his hand upon his breast and bowing low before her. "PooX! You!" Alice cried scornfully, and swung round on her foot, presenting her back to blm. He gave a perplexed look at her back and then turned to me. "When you did not meet us at the marsh as agreed," he said, "I sent all the men on to Long Haut, except Torraine and your linkman, Pat. We came back to London by separate ways and ever since have been searching high and low for you. It did not take us long to find that you had beeji hurt or killed, we knew not which, near the Bow Street mansion. Then what had become of you was a mystery—I could learn nothing. In despair I hung about the Duke's theater—" "A risky thing to do," I interrupted him. "Perhaps," he acknowledged; "but X kept my hat slouched over my face, and I put me on a wig, and long coat; you see it alters me somewhat?" I smiled—a babe could have seen through the trick. But no doubt my A GBEAT SEA FIGHT JAP AND RUSSIAN FLEETS ARE NEAR AT HAND AND READY. ROJESTVENSKY'8 FLEET IS THE CHINA 8EA, WHERE TOGO WATCHE8.

( Advices from Singapore on ,the 8th were that the Japanese and Russian fleets were coming together and were only a short distance apart, the Russian position being clearly evident by the dense black smoke from the ships all of which use soft coal. It was thought that Saigon was the objective point, and that Togo's fleet would not try to intercept Rojestvensky's, but would engage them at some peint further north. Great consternation prevailed in Singapore lest an engagement should jeopardize the safety of vessels thereabouts.

Hardly a light anywhere save the few lanthorns carried by provident wayfarers. You shrink from everyone and everyone shrinks from you. Gentlemen carry their naked swords ;n their hands. Men and women prey upon one another. All is fear! We had reached the end of Bow Street when Martin stumbled "over something, huddled in the road and ft!! I lighted a taper—I recognized yrni!" I thought (my head was clearer now) of Rosemary and our wild ride through the fog^ that night as contrast- d with this poor woman's wanderings with her daft mate; of Rosemary as she stood at the door of the inn. r;cr cloak half slipped from off her; of the petals which lay on her shoulder, shaken from the roses' low in her hair, nestling against her neck. Ah, there w^s no one more beautiful than she! And so thinking, I lost the thread of her discourse.

When from you—and you so good to poor Martin and me?" "That Is past and done, my girl," I. said. "And- as it happened you did no harm." I grasped her hand. "From now on I am your friend," I added. While speaking, for Alice, seeing that it made me more excited not to talk, had let me have ray way, we had paid slight heed to Martin, who still spouted Shakespeare, now Hamlet, now another. Suddenly he came toward us; he strode with the stage glide of the villain. As he neared us he pointed to the window and said: "Euter the ghost—he comes, he comes—make way, ye slaves." A shadow spread itself upon the shade of the window and faded away. Alice put her finger upon her lips to silence Martin, while she went to £he d o c without a'sound and stood listening. CHAPTER XX.

Further consideration has been postponed till April 18. Senator Fyfe has introduced hie joint resolution proposing a constitutional amendment to provide a specific tax on all credits, . The memorial services in honor of the late ex-Go v. Luce, will be held in representative hall April 25. Senator Burrows, Congressman Washington Gardner and MIlo D. Campbell will deliver addresses. Benton, of Xorthvnie, introduced the petition of the state association ot supervisors asking for the abolition of the present tax commission and the curtailing of its powers over local assessing officers should another commission be created. To instruct Senators Alger and Burrows to vote for the removal of Reen Smoot from the United States senate is the purport of a resolution introduced in the house by Eichhorn. of St. Clair. The resolution also asks congress to enact such remedial legislation as will wipe out "polygamy and polygamous living and political control by the Mormon hierarchy" in Utah and other states. The bill to exempt mortgages r.nd -eredtts does not stand mueh chance of passing the hoiiso. It is feared the political cdh^quehces would be-Hre~ defeat of the party in 190G in the lower peninsula. Second, the bill is regarded as almost certain of veto by Gov. Warner. As it is at present, the farmer voter in the southern counties will never be able to see that the legislature did right, if it passes a bill exempting $90,000,000 of invested money from taxation of any kind. The taxes thus lost through exemption will be assessed on other property holders, and that will not make them amiableZ'TEe^ remo^lof i2;500,00<r7romr the tax rolls in Oakland county, where 4he governor liv.es> wilJL raise taxes from $10 per $1,000 to $11. And they who would be forced to pay this would rvote accordingly. The declaration is made on all sides that the passage of the bill would mean a slaughtered Republican party, and this with the governor's attitude ^eem-s to 3eai the fate of the bill. Gov. Warner, who is interested in the Farmiugton bank, a private concern, is urging tho legislature to pass a bill to bring all such concerns under the state bank examining law. ' The governor believes in equal prolection of all depositors of money, whether the money is in a state or a private ban!;. Ho thinks every reliable private bank • in Michigan wll! i welcome tlitT bill, which will be drafted by Banking Commissioner Moor?. There are 300 private banks in Michigan. The Eichhorn joint resolution (6 submit to the people an amendment to the constitution fixing the sabXriea of members of the legislature, "which failed to pass Tuesday •night, was taken from the table Wednesday afternoon and passed with but one dissenting vote, that of Rep. Canfleld, of Alpena. Rep. Waters's amendment to make the salary $500 a year instead of $C0t) was adopted. Correspondence comncceerrnniinn?g the nro- (>osal to exempt mortgages au'd other credits from taxation is poiirihg in and a lively scrap is likely over the matter. Under the present law, as it is applied, the man who mortgages his farm pays tax on both the value of the farm and the mortgage also, as well as the interest on the money. Now what the law aimed at flr3t was the taxation of the money invested in mortgages. It was never proposed to tax one man twice, but the supreme court has held that these two taxes can be paid by one man. At present the tax on the mortgage can be dodged by any one who lives out of the state. Residents of Michigan, who loan their money directly, must pay tax ou it, or require the borrower to do so. while outsiders escape this burden. So some Michigan people have their money loaned as from out-ofstate relatives. Also, much of the mortgage loaaa of Michigan are collecting into great pools outside the state. They can lend at 5 per cent, a*id a Michigan man who tries to invest in mortgages .must compete with that. The tax commission and the auditor general's office oppose the bill. These departments' work would be lessened by_it._Clerks would be cut off. "Open," I too cried—"It is Gil."

The first fact in this connection which thoroughly arrested my attention was chat SO per cent of the population iged above S years can read and write. My mind thus aroused, I pro» ?fe<3ed to study the details of ..th* school system. As' I proceeded I found other facts which most deeply impressed me. There are in the kingdom fifty-four Qormal schools for the preparation of teachers and in these last year were 4,713 pupils. The graduates are about 550 a year. The cost of the primary schools Is over 1800,000 a year. The teachers r.umber 17,500. In the common schools, properly so called, there are few teachers who belong to the religious orders.. In the "allied", public schools the members of the religious orders exceed the other teachers more than two fo one. The number of pupils in 1902 in the common schools, properly so called, wa3 S06J74 boys, 183,590 girls. In the "allied" schools, religious institutions under the supervision of the state were 62.871 boys and 127,000 girls. Private schools under state supervision had 53,388 boys and 94,116 girls. Nowhere is the segregation of the "classes" from the "masses" more distinct than in the schools. Only the poor, as a rule, attend the common schools. It is considered utterly beneath the dignity of the higher classes generally, even in the mds^straitened circumstances, to send thefr""children to the public schools. There is be- "gtniiing to tie Tonstiferalrleclratife In this respect. —Some of the pupils in the private schools and nearly all in the religious schools are instructed more or less free of expense. Of the total attendance in the primary schools of al! kinds, 827.165. only 52,767 pay" anything for their schooling. It appears that the number of primary schools eral utility horses Is the finest I ever saw in any country. The foundation is the great Percheron, or Norman horse, and the general run of horses bred here is a fine, clean-limbed stocky animal. He is well cared for always looks in fine condition, and veil-groomed. A "scrub" horse is seldom been here. One day I -stood for several hours on the steps of the Roy* al museums, the picture galleries, and. saw 259 teams pass in review, and t must say I had never seen their equal. The graduates of the veterinary college find plenty to do in caring for the many fine horses in Belgium. Education la Practical. In all Belgian schools the practical nature of the Instruction is very commendable. Object-lesson teaching if- in common use. It is urged that the boys be taught in the school rooms how to measure a piece of land 01 given size and shape. It is suggested to the teacher that he should select a piece of land near the school for an example, and when the problem has been worked? out in school, he is urged tc take his classes out in the fields for practical observation and study. Here they are to .make actual measurement?-', go over the figuring again, and compare the results with those obtained in school. Who will bring forward a better suggestion than this in the hr.e of practical education? There are In the kingdom thirty schools where the art of weaving is taught, the schools being subsidized b> the state. The number of apprent i c e who attend those schools averages about 900. Out of those last year only sixty-two were unable to read. -They earn an average^ wage-ttf-nearly %\ a month. Since their foundation "Twelfth Night"/Shipwreck Changed Into a Railway Wreck.

Viola and Sebastian are introduced, not by means of a shipwreck, as per Shakespeare, but through the medium of a railroad smashup. The great central Bombay station is first shown, the trains made up with first, second, intermediate and third-class carriages. Viola and Sebastian are seen to hurry down the platform carrying their dress suit cases and to settle themselves in one of the second-class cars. A later scene shows their train crossing a lofty railroad bridge. The bridge breaks in two, letting them down into the ravine below, and from the wreck the two are saved by different wrecking parties, who carry them, in opposite directions unknown to each other.

The sexes are pretty generally seperated in all the public schools after they reach the age of about 8 years. There are in the kingdom about ISO schools of medium grade, where about V..000 pupils attend. These are of the grade of high schools, academies and colleges with us. The state pays about $120,000 toward the support of these higher schools. Has Four Universities.

Object Lessons Taught. The schools in Brussels open for the winter term about the middle of September. Almost every day after 3 p. m. strollers in the streets and parks may meet a teacher, followed by a long string of boys or girls, going out to a park or some public building or tLOttument to take an interesting object lesson in some study. The youngsters are thoroughly orderly, but full of keen enjoyment. They enter into the spirit of the subject in hand and evidently think they are having a fine time. The best school buildings here canhoi compare with the beautiful high school at Portland, Ore., nor with the magnificent structures in other American cities. But the newest schools tiflt in Brussels as compared with those in the older part of the city show perhaps not as much improve- HAD OVERLOOKED A FORTUNE. Gold Close at Hand Not Suspected by Treasure Seekers, "T'He"man with whom the writer bunked—a sober, industrious young fellow—engaged in working a lease vith several partners. They sank a shaft 150 feet in depth and "drifted" frotn the bottom in their search for gold, until not a penny was left in their treasury. They had discovered absolutely cothing. The lease was abandoned and all were obliged to go to work for wages. Day after day they had fluug^ their coats across a monster dorsal fin of dark,, volcanic rock, ouljutting from the hill near by, and given it rover a thought. The ledge of rock, was fabulously rich. The leasers who followed them went at the ledge of hopeless looking porphyry on top of the ground and found it fairly shot full of gold. They channeled it out, as men might channel for a ditch, and removed ovor fifty sacks of ore worth $400 a sack.—Harper' 8 Magazine. ^ _ _ _ Cbjectsd to Buying Teeth.

DVSPEPSiA_YIELDS A NINE TEAKS' TOTIif FjfrDS A RlBMEDY THAT ODBEcf Trick of "Wreckers." "Jibber the kibbc-r," is in sailor parlance, to decoy a vessel ashore by exhibiting a ship's sidelight on the beach. The light is carried along close to the water's edge, the man holding it giving it a sinking and rising motion as he walks along, in imitation of a vessel at anchor in a swell. When a lame horse can be obtained the light is hung on him, and he is walked up and down .the beach, for the imitation is then more deceptive. A navigator is thus made to believe there is plenty ot sea' room, and is decoyed to strand his vessel for the benefit of the beachcombers on the alert. ment as anything seen in America.

"One morning I happened to be strolling through the town near which the school was located, when I was 'touched' by an old fellow, whose tale of hard luck would have melted a stone.

Obituary Jajie Carr Bullis, daughter of Eli and Rebecca Carr was born in Wyoming Co., X. Y., August 1.7, 1S33. . Her parents with their pine children, moved to Michigan in 1843, settling on the Carr farm nvar Pinckney. In 1848 she was baptized and united with the Methodist church and has always re> niained an active worker, being one of the founders of the Methodist class in her own district. Her marriage to Chas. E . Bullis of Unadilla, occurred Jan. 23, 1650, and she at once took up her home where the succeeding 55 years have,.been speut. Of the three brothers and live, sisters, she is survived by but one brother, Maholm D. Carr of Belleville. The deceased was the mother of seven children, six of whom are now Jiving. Mrs. Bullis was a splendid type of the pioneer woman of the past century. Her courage, wa* unconquerable. She endured the hardships of the early Settler in a new country without a murmer and and with an almost sublime confidence that the future would bring success and contentment. The great Civil war heaped a crushing load of debt on her husband and family, and naught save industry and thrift, coupled with a sanguine belief in ultimate success, could have paid it. The help of such women lias been the salvation of many families in straightened circumstances. It is but reasonable to say that her calm and untroubled belief in the future was based upon deep religious convictions. She believed, and that unipn-stioning confidence overcame all obstacles. — H e r l i f o , tUi'tftohing pant the span of AETNA PORTLAND CEMENT & Teeple H a r d w a r e Go.

J The private bank of M. L. Stewart f& To., of Owosso, on Saturday startled .'the-business community as it was to- ' tallv unexpected. The bauk did business as usual all t h e morning, but 'at 11/30 o'clock the doors were closed •and a notice posted that the affairs of the institution had been placed in iche hands of the Detroit Trust Co., as trustee for the creditors. It WHS regarded as one of the strongest and largest banks in the state. Us deposits amount to $480,000, the various : accounts running from a few dollars up to $15,c?b0. Most of the creditors are residents of Owosso or the vicinity, land include nearly every business, man 'and firm in the city. i T h e closed bank was an old instit u t i o n , having been started some ' Torty years ago. For the six months Ipast it has been steadily losing b u s - iness on account of the fact that it 'paid but :: per cent interest on deposits, while the other local banks paid 4 per cent. Charles D.

The officers of the other two local banks,, the Citizens' Savings Hank and the Owosso Savings Dank, were surprised*, ut . the assignment, and stated that if Mr. Stewart had come to them they would gladly have advanced the money necessary (o fide the bank.over its difficulty. ~Gfcen 'is now therTashTdnalSTc^cTdoT for men's garments, but we see no ieason to modify the standing warning against the purchase ut' green goods.

The fact t h a t he ie keeping to the main trade route, although knowing his squadron would constantly bo sighted and reported by passing vessels, they consider clearly shows that the Russian admiral is keenly anxious to meet Admiral Togo and fight it out to a finish. A Small Scrap. A report from Manila says that fighting has begun between the Russian and Japanese fleets near the Palayvan islands, part of the Philippines group. The dispatch does not go .into details, and while it is believed bynaval men that there is a possibility of truth in it, it Is, not supposed that any of the heavy battleships of either fleet have been , engaged. The fighting.. if any has occurred, will probably prove to have been between scouting cruisers of the two fleets. Japanese scouts have been sighted in tha,t locality within the last lVw days, and this fact lends some color to the report, as it is generally believed that the Russian fleet has anchored temporarily in some harbor in that vicinity in "order THE LEGISLATURE.

The new bill makes the submission of the primary question to the voters of all parties mandatory so far as governor and iieutant govet\ior a r e concerned, while for 'districts,' from congressional districts down, the local option plan is to be followed. This bill does not affect in any way the laws already i n ' o p e r a t i o n i n W a y t t ^ Kent, Muskagon and Alpena counties.

There is a growing impression among British naval experts that, unless t h e Russian and Japanese fleets come together now, the long-lookedfor sea fight may be postponed for two or three weeks, and m a y then resolve itself into a blockade of Vladivostok •by Admiral Togo.

I asked him. rhe handsome one that came to the Tai.ard,' he explained. 4 I lurried on my clothes to be decent and went down to the door, someone proposed a country dance. I like them not—they are rough. ' We were in the- midst of one, where the gentlemen hold their swords up and the ladies pass beneath them. In a moment, I understand not yet how it happened, we all got bunched together. In the mi>:-up my dress was torn and the locket—Mister Waters' locket —fell to the floor. Raoul Dwight's foot in an instant covered the bauble before the gentleman with whom I was dancing had time to stoop for it. Cousin Raoul was handing it to me (he had b&en the quicker to pick it up) with a low bow of mock humility, bewailing his awkwardness and making other profuse apologies, when he discovered that the mirror was broke n . s h a t t e r e d into a thousand tiny bits. 'A bad omen, ma cousine,' he said, 'a death!' His face glowed with the liveliest Interest, and malignity was not far off." I twitted him with being, spiteful because of losing the wager—I was not gentle with him.' "I may say I believed her, for upon the telling of the circumstance, her eyes sparkled like glow worms on a summer's night," was Gil's comment. . "He dallied with the locket,' the lady continued her narrative, 'in a disdainful manner, turning it now this way, now that, while 1 waited his pleasure. Finally he gave it an extra fillip and the thin gold partition, which backed the mirror, fell out. and with it a bit of paper folded into a tiny square to fit the locket. Again there was a scramble, and again 4JEij&L^waj_the> successful one. In spite of my expostulations; "nTT T5penM and—read—what- was written on the paper aloud—the dishonorable hound! 'A love letter,' he cried mockingly; 'a rendezvous, too!' He then held it up so that all the dandies present might see. I was in distress, for now I thought I understood why Mister Waters had been so solicitous about the locket—he should have whore 1).1- fool had left her standing. ' trusted me if it'is of any value to him. •"if he is dead,' I violently cried, 'you have killed him!' I he.^'M her to come in. She was timid -j.ale—big black rings were under her * yes." " Yoiu' master,' she faltered. 'Have yon found him yet?' " No.' I replied, 'and I have searched everywhere.' • ' I am afraid,' she said, 'that he is dead.' Ht.r voice broke and died away in a sob. , '• 'Whr.t makes you think so?* I 'asked, stubborn enough still to contest the thought with anyone that you could br dead. -" Yes. dead,' she repeated, and a woman's vanity has been the cause!' •'I thought, if so, she would not be the first woman to do a man to his death by the same. I restrained myself, however, and gave her no hint of my thoughts." I could have smiled any other time, he took so much virtue to himself at lb J l i t . (raiut, but anxiety consumed, me and I motioned him to continue. "•You must know,' she said, 'that my cousin. Sir Raoul Dwight, laid me « waeer—it was to be a pair of jew- Hed gloves against my carol ring— Hint 1 could not get Mister Waters to loan me that locket he wore upon Iiis breast. 1 could not let the wager pass; and that was the reason why 1 came to the Tabard instead of sending someone—to see mm and t6 OoaT it from him.' "I will tell you that her voice lagged In tin1 (riling of thlfl"—. • No side remarks, if you please, Gil." I interrupted sharply. " T h e night of the ball,' the lady continued. 'I wore the locket; it hung among the lace ruffles which encircled my neck, Ajt once Cousin Raoul saw It—I knew, he saw It, although he said nothing, and I flirted my triumph Jn ''his face, ' Tired of he minuet, 'It is not mine,' I cried, scarcely knowing what% I said. '1 see it is not. cousin,' he replied, 'for the date on the billet doux, although almost indistinguishable, antedates your birth by some years—and 1 beg your -pardon, coz,* he added. The men's muttered cries of 'Shame,' helped him to fasten his slipping temper. '"Then he hastened to hand it to me, for be had seen what I too saw; my father watching us. You must know,' she explained to me, 'that I have a father here in London, although 'tis little indeed I see of him, living, as I mostly do, at Ladv Dwight's. My father now came toward us, pushing back the crowd debonairly. I forestalled the words on his lips by crying gayly to Raoul Dwight: 'I have won the wager; the gloves are mine.' But my father was not so easily to be put to rout. 'Allow me to see the paper. Mary.' he requested. But I courteseyed low before him, and replied. 'You must excuse me, sir; it would not interest you. Moreover, it does not belong to me.* I placed the paper back in the locket and fastened on the gold back. " 'The men began making apologies for the fracas, and Raoul Dwight. as if to make amends for his rudeness, born of pique, and as I afterward learned, uesire to see it Che locket which Mister Waters habitually wore contained the pledge of my hand, lingcred to ftppotme Lopd Tel ton.—J uaderstood that Raoul Dwight was explaining about the paper. I heard him say (my ears are keen) words to the effect that it was naught but an old love letter written to Elaine, of which Mister Waters must be choice indeed, since he If it w^re ever his notice he would destrov it. And his information was punctuated with malicious chuckles. Which proved to me that it was of value to its owner, and that Raoul Dwight had either seen or heard of it before. I promised myself that, as far as I had the saying, he should never see it again. " 'I did not look at my father, but 1 could feel iiis eyes follow me as I walked down the ball room with my partner, and I knew that he was furious at being thwarted in his Jnquisitiveness. That was not to be the end of the affair. There is much more to tell, much more! " 'I thought to escape an interview with him that night by spending it at Lady Dwight's. I had hardly entered the hall of her house when Lord Felton stood before me. After many pleasant words and compliments, for my father knows how to be niost gracious when he chooses, and he can be the fiend incarnate when he pleases, also, he asked to see the billet doux. Again I refused graciously but firmly. He was at a white heat with anger, and I was afraid that he would use force to wrench it from me. I should have known him better than that. He recovered himself and in his most suave manner said slowly ft«4-4m p r e s s i v f: 1 XI^IYQ &^£^$L&Slin£ your strength, my dear; better build a new fire upon the ashes of this old one—you will never see Quentln Watei- s—your lover—again. I think that you will not care to go unloved, no, not unloved, you could never be that, but unloving to the grave. Moreover, have your maid prepare your clothes; to-morrow I am going to take you away with me. I have left you too long to your own devices; and your lovers.' " 'You have called Quentin Waters my lover,' I replied. 'I am more than happy to introduce him to you as such. When a father gambles away his daughter's hand in a room crowded with gamesters, holding her name as light as a thistle down—oh, I hate the thought of it!—he should thank _hgr_j_f__she n i e p f __h_rrn_ in a n y Spirit whatsoever. But if she acquiesces in w h a n i e " has done, "somethTng more than thanks, are, I think, her due.' 'Of course he told you that?' he said. His aplomb was admirable. 'And you believed him?' <; 'Of course—he did not tell me that," I retorted. 'He only lately became aware of the fact that Lady Mary Felton and Rosemary Allyn. whom he had seen at Castle Drout.. were the same person. I saw—:and possessed the paper the day he won it—I .recognised my father's writing!' He winced now~ and the blooiLcame to_the surface of his face. 'Then to make assurance doubly sure, I asked one who had witnessed the proceedings that night at the Lodge, and from him I learned the facts of the case. You and Cousin Raoul need not have been so anxious about the paper, since it has been in my possession all the time. Quentin Waters is not the man to force an unwelcome bride.' " 'I'm afraid he'll have to take a bride in heaven.' he said harshly; he'll get no earthly one.' '"Then will I be that bride.' I. returned. Seeing there would be no end to the argument, he left me. after requesting my presence at home on the morrow. "'He liad hardly gotten out of the door before Raoul Dwight put in an appearance.

After holding it for a week, the state department today gave .out the correspondence between Minister Bowen and President Castro, out of which grew the incident which Secretary Taft, acting for the president, i* permitting to close itself because there] is nothing of credit in it to the United t States. This government asked Cas-; tro if he was (Hlpssred, yes or no, in! a friendly way to submit all the ques- i tiona at issue between the two governments to .arbtoraUpjn- At the same | time, notice was served on Venezuela \ that if she would not submit them, the ; United States reserved the right to take such action as it might deem proper. The reservation is what caused the note to be regarded as in the nature of an ultimatum, although j the essential feature of an ultimatum, ] the fixing of a time for a reply, was not contained in it. But it is the same sort of notice that Japan gave Russia ; as a warning to prepare for war. Castro's answer, which Minister Bowen characterized as contemptuous and insulting, was of the same nature, crisp and to the point. He called attention to the fact that diplomatically speaking there were no questions at issue between the governments because ajl matters in wnich Ajmericans were interested were tlO'n pending in tEe" courts, according to the terms of" the" concessions that were the subject matter of the cases pending. The same course would have been taken by the United States had a similar proposal been made by any nation concerning matters before the courts of the United States or of any state. A request to withdraw a case from the courts would have been considered an insult. No Skep—No Appetite—Just a Continual Backache.

Vant and Howes left Chicago shortly before the grand jury convened. That the husbands are in Canada at the instigation of the legal advisers of « certain packing company, is a charge which, it is said, the government seeks to prove from the testimony of the wives, both of whom returned from Canada within the last few days. Since returning Mrs. Hooves is'said to have met an attorney connected with a prominent packing firm and discussed plans for a trip to Europe with her husband. A similar trip for the Vants is said to have been discussed at the time. The grand jury made special efforts to secure, enough evidence to indict a high official of the leading packing, firm in Chicago.

Did Visiting Minister Little .Good tr Find It Out. Having accumulated a considerable property, the late Nathaniel Whltmor€ of Gardiner, Mass., more familiarly known by people of the Kennebec val ley as "Uncle Nat" Wbitmore, received naturally enough, numerous request? from various organizations to conjtrlb ute toward the work in which these organizations were Interested. Sel dom, however, did he respond to the appeals. On one occasion the minister of a certain church in Gardiner approached him, only to be politely turned away, as many others before him had been on the plea of poverty. "But, Mr. Whltmore," said the dl vine, "you are reputed to be very rich What, pray, since you have no chil dren, do you intend to do with youi money when you die?" 'Uncle Nat" rubbed his long, bony hands together, and with a slnlstei smile on his face, replied: "My good sir, that is a secret I have never confided to anyone, but as you are a minister of the gospel, and will presumably, bold inviolable anything 1 may say, I'm going to tell you." The clergyman assured Mr. Whit more that the secret would be well kept, whereupon the latter drew close and, in a tone of the greatest confi denes, said: "When I die I'm either going to take my money with me or leave it behind." FISHES FROM OCEAN'S BED. HEROISM IN EVERYDAY LIFE. Named for "Grand Monarqus."

T h e_jnhabit a n t s o f this coantry originally were French and Spanish settlers, and their descendants cvea to-day are called "Creoles." EVERY ONElSKS HIM HOW HE GOt RID OF. HI&0BSTI2JATE MUSCULAR RHEUMATISM, There Displayed in Higher Form Than on the Battlefield. Prof. William James of Harvard university relates that upon a certain journey he was questioning with him-' self whether or not the higher heroism of life was passing out of human society; and that at the very moment, ho looked from the car window and -suddeR4^ got sight of a workmen performing some task>on the dizzy ledge of ah IrblTconstriictioTT at a great height, says Success. This at t once brought to his mind a sense of I the everyday bravery of men in everyday occupations. It flashed upon him Jon the instant that the true heroism *of lite is found not only on the day of battle and in desperate adventures, but also in building every bridge, or in the ordinary day-by-day service of the world, whether of the sailor upon his deck, the brakeman upon his train, the-lumberman upon his raft, or wherever else men are af work; "As 1 awoke to this unidealized heroic life | around me," he says, "the 'scales j seemed to fall from my eyes, and a j wave of sympathy greater than I had ("ever before felt with the common life ! of common men began to fill my soul.'' Sir. J on*n Telia of the W a y liy W h i c h H e TreoUnl H i m s e l f S u w e M f u l l y W h e n Doetora I ^ L U ^ W - Six physicians, all of them Rood, one of them a specialist, had done their best for Mr. Jones at different times during three yeurs, and sfcHl ho suffered fearfnlly from the tortures of rheumatism. The 'rhenmntism that had been dormant in His system was suddenly brought to art acute stage by exposure while hc^was drawing ice in February, 3901. Erom that time on for a period f\f nmrVi thnn thi-pn v o n r s i h p \v»g w. / w i . sta^if sufferer. lie tried many kinds of treatment, but the rheumatism wouldn't /bud^e. When regular doctors failed, and one remedy after another proved nseloss, many said: " I should think he would tfiveit up and save his money." Of las condition at this time, Mr. Jones says: " My rheumatism started in my right thigh, but in timn it appeared iu every muscle of my body. I lost the use of my left a n a entirely and nearly lost tho uso of my right one. My feet were badly affected, especially the bottoms of the heels. When my right side was affected there v?ns swelling, but the left side didn't swell when the disease settled there. The internal organs didn't seem to bo invoked at all. The trouble was all ia the muscles and the nerves." Among tho few who still encouraged Mr. Jones to think that a cure might yet be. found was a friend who had reason for great confidence in Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and acting on her advice ho bought a box of them in September, 1904. The story of what followed is brief, but nothing could be more satisfactory. " When 1 was on tho third box,!' says Mr. Jones, " I could rcalizo n change for the better. I felt sure thou that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills were the right medicine for my ease. I kept on with them for several weeks longer and now T i m m i r i m l y vcnll, mid gvovylnvly io asking what I took." Mr. William Jones lives at Oxford, M i r h .

A Case cf Mistaken Identity On (he occasion of the great street parade, during the recent revival services' inaugurated by Evangelist Dawson of London, Eng., in which ministers anrfmen of all denominations and walks in life took part, one enthusiastic divine, on seeing a man rush from a brilliantly lighted saloon to join the ranks, exclaimed to his equally enthusiastic, but better informed friend: "See, even the bums from the saloons come to join us."

Unusual Characteristics of Inhabitants of the Dssp Sea. When & deep-sea flsh is brought to the surface, how gradually and carefully soever, its bones are often like so much touchwood and its muscles like rotten pulp, while its eyes are burst from their sockets and its viscera are often blown out of the body cavity by the expansion of the air bladder. It frequently happens that deep-sea fishes are found floating helplessly on the surface of the ocean, with large prey in their stomachs. Their appearance under these circumstances is accounted for by the efforts of their struggling victims to escape from their jaws, causicg them to ascend beyond the horizontal zone which they usually Inhabit. Deep-sea fishes are commonly black or dark brown. Eut although it is claimed that light is essential to the formation of colors, some deep-sea fishes are scarlet In parts, or uniform red or rosy. Others are silvery white, while, according to Alcock, the neocopelus is "one daz ziing sheen of purple and silver and burnished gold, amid which is a sparkling constellation of luminous organs." A Personal Illustration. Some years ago in a town meeting in Needbam, Mass., a hot debate took place on the question of abating some alleged nuisances in the form of large piggeries. The claim was strongly made that they were a menace to health. One of the owners, a strapping, rosy-cheeked young farmer, who was much more at ease while feeding his swine than on the floor of a town meeting, rose to defend the sanitary side of his occupation by using himself as a striking illustration. Angrily sweeping his hind toward the objectors, he said: "These folks say hogs ain't healthy. Look at me!" Weather Indications. If it clears off in the night look for xaln the next day.

Never expect much storm in the old of the moon. The absence of dew and an unusually heavy dew are alike forerunners of rain. Not much frost need be expected in the light of the moon. An owl hooting in the hollow is a sign of a cold storm; on the hill it foretells a thaw. Nervousness is very common among women. This condition is dvte to anemic nerve centers. The nerve centers are the reservoirs of nervous vitality. These centers become bloodless for want of proper nutrition. This is especially true in the spring season. Every spring a host of invalids are" produced as the direct result of weak nerves. This can be easily obviated by u.->ing Peruna. Peruna strikes at the root of the difficulty by correcting the digestion. Digestion furnishes nutrition fii" the nerve centers. Properly digested f<x>d furnishes these reservoirs of life with h*ads= to=f*troBg^&tcii.d^, nerves and thus nourishes life.

Dak., April 17.—Quite -a-sensatlonJias been created here by the publication of the story of G. W. Gray, who after a special treatment for three months was prostrate and helpless and given up to die with Bright's Disease. Bright's Disease has always been considered Incurable, but evidently from the story told by Mr. Gray, there is a remedy which will cure it even in the most advanced stages. This is what he says: "I was helpless as a little babe. My wife and I searched everything and read everything we could find about Bright's Disease, hoping that I would be able to find a remedy. After many failures my wife insisted that I'should try Dodd's Kidney Pills. I praise God for the day when 1 decided to do so ior this remedy met every phase of my case and in a short time I was able to get out of bed and after a fewweeks' treatment I was a strong, well man. Dodd's Kidney Pills saved my life." A remedy that will cure Bright's Disease will cure any lesser Kidney- Disease. Doddvs Kidney Pills are certainly the most wonderful discovery which modern medical research has given to the world. People would rather talk about the czar just now than about the neighbors. The Japs are not the only ones who, have taken a lie pass. c o o c ^ y o o o o o o o o o o o o b o o o o o o o o Say Plainly toTYaur^rocer T h a t you want L I O N C O F F E E always, and ho, b e i n g a square man, will n o t try t o sell you anyt h i n g else.

Judge Howard W l e s t r o f the Ingham circuit court, overruled the demurrer filed by the Michigan Central railroad In the suit brought against it by the state to recover certain taxes from 1855 to 189:-!, The judge gave the defendant 30 days in which to answer the information. The judge cited grounds of demurrer based on a claim of laches on the parr of the state on a claim of exemption by the statute of limitations and on a el aim that t h e information did not contain allegations sufficient to overcome the statute of limitations. The judge held that the allegations of fraud, and the claim of want of knowledge by complainant were sufficient. Judge Wiest reviewed the charter law of the state, declaring charters to be contracts between the state and corporation, binding •atrttH-timea^ under the charter.

When his son was tried in the circuit court of this county six years ago for forgery, Mr. Mains employed the best legal talent in the county to defend him, there being five lawyers engaged in defending Mains. This cost his father no less- than five mortgages on his small farm in Eckford.

'Do not drive a man to extremes. Quentin Waters has bewitched you with his dark foreign face—and he had grace, I will acknowledge; but am I altogether without charm?' 'Leave, Oh, leave me,1 I begged. 'I am wearied with you all.' 'I will molest you no more, if you will but promise to think of me.' he pleaded. 'Oh, Rosemary, listen to my love.' He Btretched out his arms to draw me to his breast. *I will intercede with Lord Felton; you bhall not leave town if you care to stay—only love me a little.' '"You listened,' I cried; 'I am finding out some of the characteristics of my cousin to-night—I hate, you—and it' Quentin Waters is dead, I shall be his bride in heaven.' 'So you said before to-night;' he retorted. I saw that he was holding his temper in check. 'You liked me well enough before this upstart came to town—you shall like —nay, more than like me again when time shall have healed the wound. Adieu, my coz; I hope you will find your sojourn in France to your taste.' "Fairly well, if I do not see the face of my Cousin Raoul Dwight.' I returned.

"She. had ended and there were when she delivered the locket into his hands, hoping thereby to find a clue to the missing paper. And each day after talking, for very weakness, I would fall asleep. In the long hours of my delirium, so Gil told me, I talked and rayed of nothing but Rosemary and the lost locket. Oft I started up after lying with wide open sightless eyes crying out: "She is innocent, I swear to Ood, she is innocent; look at her face; could deceit dwell there?" Again I was before the King crying out: "She is innocent, your Majesty, I swear it. Imprison me, but let one so sweet go." So time dragged on until at last I regained consciousness, only to repeat when asleep from sheer weakness, "She is innoent—innocent." How wearying It was to him, poor Gil! those long hours in which I raved, for he blamed himself greatly that, he had not waited until I was stronger before he had told me about the locket or given it to me, and also restrained himself when speaking of Lady Felton. I forgave him that, indeed I never referred to it, his humility was so sincere. I knew him well enough to know that he meant nothing, his bark was ever worse than his bite, witness what he did for "pretty Alice Lynson" and her daft mate. He s<?nt them on to Bristol escorted by Torraine and Pat, when he had need of them both.

The argument advanced by some of these insurance men is that life insurance companies are not run for profK, and that all the money made is used for the benefit of policy holders, bat the developments in the Equitable cas<* are making some of the senators figure that it might be well to get more in taxes, even if salaries cf insurance men have to come down. Senator Baird and his co-legislators are mighty glad that the Judicial recount has afforded them an opportunity of looking into Wayne county's* election methods. They are having the time of their lives and, when not trying to look solemn when questioning some inspector, they poke each other Th the ribs and laugh over the conditions of affairs that has been brought to light. He says regarding the passage of a direct voting bill: 'The first thing, I believe, ought to be to get an opinion from the attorney general as to. the constitutionality of the plan of submitting the direct voting question to the voters of the various parties, and I shall offer a resolution In the senate Monday night calling up the state's legal department for a written opinion on this point. The legislature ought certainly not to go on and pass a bill with a provision about whose legality there is so much doubt, without getting the best possible opinion on it." Representative Manzelmann, who is a member of the house committee on the state prison at Jackson, says: '"I have determined to offer a resolution in the house calling for an investigation of the manner in which the annual eofttraetH^-^were sward etT by^Xh e Jackson prison board of control.

Gil had finished, and I saw that he was well satisfied with himself that "he had done his task so well. He handed me the locket. I took it mefhanically. My proud lady had done penance, indeed, in confessing all this to Gil. so that it should be repeated to me. I looked at the bare back, where the mirror had been—that could soon be, fixed and then Rosemary should wear it among the frills of her gown whenever she chose. While idly fingering it, .1 pressed the spring, which was uninjured. The thin gold flew out. and instinctively my hand opened to eat eh the paper as it fell. It, < hitched eiridkess.

"There is no need to hasten now, Gil," I replied. "Lord Waters has been laid been laid to rest a week agone at least. I did not see his face, calm, I hope, in death; after his life's restless wave of turbulency may he sleep well. Ah! me! my errand into London as far as my father's message is concerned was of Tittle avail. Lady Dwight has left town; God knows when I shall see her again!" "Since she has waited 'so many years, a longer wait will not. matter," said he with the patience oi an older man. "It matters much for my peace of mind," I returned. "If she should die—and she is not a young woman— without my father's message—let me not think of it." I cried petulantly. "To the dead all things are known, they say," he said. / "I lingered too long over my own affairs," I continued. "My punishment is this: My lady mourns me dead, and I know not where she bides." "You should thank God fasting that she is out of this pest-rldden place," Gil jerked out, seeing me so down In the mouth. _ "What do you mean?T I quickly like this air fresh from the sea to put new life into one. At once I was strengthened. My blood ran quicker through my veins. All lassitude fell from me, and I longed to do outrageous things, even as a boy escaped from restraint might. I left Gil snoring in his bed, sleeping the sleep a man feels he is entitled to after having spent days and nights of vigil with an exacting patient, now that he has brought him safe home. I did justice to the bowl of porridge and home-brewed ale Nance set before me. and in spite of her protests Chat I was not strong enough went to the chapel. I looked about me. How •ptill it was in that house of prayer and how familiar, save my father's seat' draped in black and that newlycarved stone resting upon all that remained of him whose name I bore. Candles burned upon the altar, while through the stained memorial win dow the light softly fell. I thought of the dead resting beneath those flag stones—life has so much to give t o some, so little to others—how would it be with mo? 1 account every man responsible for what his life is— whether he make or mar it. But mostly I thought of the newly buried, and while I said a prayer for the peace of his soul, I vowed that accomplished by Kashovsky, the Russian Sherlock Holmes, who was dismissed from the secret police several years ago on account, of his connection with Philippe, the .spiritualist, who created such a stir at court, and who then went to Paris'to live. Perhaps the most romantic feature is the fact that Mile. Leontieff converted two nieces of Governor-General Trepoff. Mile. Trepoff an 1 Princess Deinsheff. to the doctrine of assassination and that after the arrest of her mentor Mile. Trepoff actually attempted the life of her uncle, firing two shots at him, both of which missed. Thereupon the two girls became panic-stricken and attempted suicide. Mile. Trepoff throwing herself under a train and Princess Deinsheff shooting herself. Neither of them succeeded in killing herself. The family has since tried to make ic appear that tlu girls' acts were the result of a mutual p'ac.i for self-destruction, both being in love with the same man, an officer of the guards. Gil replied, as he had many times be for "Yes. and I never took off the Jerkin "* cither night or day. until I saw you." i His deep voice trembled In his desire to render its tones soft, and he spoke as a person would humoring one who had passed through tho shadow of death. v We had been going over the same. •Wing again and again, for I made him repeat, not once, but many times, what I ady Felton had said to him ' T h e plague!" he replied.

Hospitality may be considered as one of the characteristics of not only the Vets, *ut of the whole African race, says a writer in the Century. It is considered the duty of every citizen to entertain strangers without the smallest compensation. Places of rest stand always open, and when these are found occupied by strangers, a man goes and tells his wife, who will send her servants with water for the strangers to wash their feet; for, as they wear no shoes, they naturally need such accomodation. Afterward rooms and cloth wrappers are given them; food is brought from all quarters, or they are invited to eat with the people.

John Jacob Astor and bis son rigidly attended to business in the same Office—-a little one-story building «ft Prince street, just east of Broadway. Their constant companion there was Fitz-Greene Halleck— Marco Bozzaris Halleck. Halleck became a clerk for Astor in 1832 and worked seventeen years. The employment, he himself said, was not "profitable but permanent." Astor warned him when he began not to talk to anyone of his wealth. The two men became great friends. Halleck spent months with his patron at his country seat and became one of the trustees of the Astor library. The poet frequently rallied the old man on his wealth. "Why, Mr. Astor," he would say, "if I had $200 a year and was sure of it I would be content." The great landowner took him at his word, and in his will, much to the amusement of Bohemian New York, left Halleck an annuity of $200.—Burton J. Hendrick in Mc- Clure'8. CUAA YOUR KHMftXYS.

In a month she would have the spells again. At these times she would eat very little and was very yellow; even the whites of ter eyes would be yellow. "The doctors gave us no encourage ment, they all said they could not help her. After taking one box of Dodd's Kidney Pills, she has not had one bad spell. Of course, *we continued the treatment uutil she had used in all about a dozen boxes, and we still give them to her occasionally, when she is not feeling well.

Many of the diplomats who are now serving in Washington are bearers of names which moan much to the student of history. The Viscount dc Chambrun, whom rumor credits with a hopeless affection for Miss Alice Roosevelt, is the great-grandson of Lafayette, and he belongs to a family which figured in stirring episodes of French history long before the gallant marquis came on his errand of chivalry to America. There is another member of the French embassy who bears a name revered in ecclesiastical and secular history—Count Antoine de Sala. He comes from the same line of Northern Italy which produced that gentle saint Francis de Sales, Bishop of Geneva, beloved by all, whether orthodox Catholic or merelj; admirer of noble attributes of character and mind.

The utility of war balloons was early made manifest to the British, and accordingly the factory at Aldershot, which we are about to describe, was established under the supervision of Lieut-Col. Templer. an officer of engineers, who is recognized in all the armies of the world as one of the foremost authorities on military aerostatics. Col.

The workshops are all wonderfully interesting. There is one for the weaving and testing of the vast network of cordage that confines the envelope- of the balloon; another for the sizes; a third brass turning, and so on. , When all the departments of the balloon factories have done their part , toward forming one of these monsters these parts are rapidly put together in a shed or barn of great height and spaciousness. The enormous cover is ! laid on the door, the bewildering area \ of cordage laid over it, and then the center of the envelope is hoisted to the roof and work begun on the lower part of the huge machine. Usually at this stage a wagonload of tubes of gas arrives from the chemical department .mill ft prptimjnarv filling is begun to see whether the skins leak at all at the joinings. li.

Easter day, Russia's greatest festival of joy and peace, was ushered in with none of the disorder and rioting that was predicted. As for centuries, ihrongii__of the Russian faithful throughout the empire gathered at midnight in and around the cathedrals, churches and shrines to greet the risen Lord and to mark the end of tho Lenten gloom and sadness of Passion week with illuminations, the pealing of bells and shouts" of "Hallelujah, Christ is risen; He is risen indeed." Nothing could better illustrate the deep piety and devotion of the Russian folk than the universal participation in the midnight festival. Though for days the people have been fed with rumors that terrorists and revolutionists intended to signalize the festival wi'h#a series of bomb outrages throughout the empire, no instance of such an attempt, which would be sure to bring down upon the party responsible the execration of the united Russian nation, has been reported, and it is believed the rumors Were founded only on fears.

How long ago It scorned—though In reality not so many weeks—since I had s a t in t h a t s a m e place, and unconsciously I assumed t h e same attitude of t h a t o t h e r time when I had watched and waited oven as a Silvius lor his Phoebe. Here Nell Gwyn, in all a serving maid's masqueradery, had purposely surprised me. Had I then seen her as I did later u p the stage doing h e r inimitable mimicry I had not been so taken in, for once seen she was n e v e r to be mistaken for anyone else. I called to mind another and a prettier picture—sweet Rosemary in her farthingales! Rosemary (had ever n a m e so pleasant a sound?) a s s h e appeared when I killed h e r falcon. Some day she should have another like unto it, X t h o u g h t fondly, and my lips curved as I recalled how she had flouted me. The rose in her h a i r had paled in beauty beside her, Its cream tint not so delicate as the skin which it caressed. I heard a little quivering sigh or sob. It was so like t h a t other day of which I was thinking that I -started up. T h e r e in the pathway she stood; out of the mist she grew, until from a wraith in pale cerements she c a m e to be Rosemary of flesh and blood. Rosemary with eager eyes dilated and hands fluttering toward me. . "You!" she whispered. "They told TOO you were dead." 'Quick enough, love," I cried, a s I drew her to my breast. F o r a mom r a t fche lay there. "I felt you were alive," she cried joyfully. "Would earth bo so sweet if ybu were dead? Oh. no! I told myself so again and again, while I yet chided myself for being gay when t h e y assured m e t h a t you were no •more!" f would have tak'en her again to my_ heart, but she held me off. "YonTlTrlMPaTe and fhln—}W~hliv~e been ill?" she asked. "You did not recognize anyone?" she queried. "No," I replied. "The men were masked; I saw so much from t h e light of a torch which w a s swung before my eyes, and it blinded me so I could not grasp my sword e r e the blow fell." "Oh. n o ! " she cried. H e r tone was pleading. "It could not be?" " W h a t distresses you, d e a r ? " . I asked. "No, I will not think of it," she said proudly. "One could not be so cowardly." "You suspect someone?" I inquired. "Do not ask me, sir," she answered. " W e Feltons a r e not loath to sta^d up before one w e deem our enemy—but we could not strike a blow in the dark." "No doubt of that, love," I said to still h e r suspicions, which, while she yet silenced, cut her to the h e a r t ; "witness how a slender youth stood before my long arm and rapier, and made m e do penance for the killing of a falcon." "Yes," she cried, throwing off her depression; "and to think you did not recognize m e . I trembled in my boots for fear you might. T h e next time when Nell and 1 were at the White Swan and passed you, we were on our guard, for from the window we had seen you enter the court yard. Immediately I gave the order for our coach to be gotten ready, although we had intended to rest there most 01 the day. How we chuckled when you let us go, for in my pocket snug and safe J a y t h e little paper you had won in so disgraceful " a ^ m a l i h e T - - f l e ^ s i r ; "Tipw could you?" She shook her finger at me, and before I could reply in a manner that permitted of no .words, she added: "I thought, we shall see whether Mister Quentin W a t e r s gets so much enjoyment out of t h a t piece of paper as he expects to in London town. I will acknowledge, sir, t h a t I did not love you then." "And I loved you from the first moment my eyes lighted" upon yonf-^t said, reproac"hfully. the vow I ' bad m a d e a t ' m y father*! grave.

"Ah t h e r e ! it c a m e near to being your undoing—a w o m a n ' s vanity," she sighed, yet looked archly a t m e as though demanding t h a t I contradict her. " W a s t h e paper in it when you gave it to Gil?" I asked. "Did I tell Gil so when I gave it to h i m ? " she replied. "It is lost, I said, "and Gil asserts that t h e locket never left his person until he placed it in my hands—and there was none in it then." "What m a t t e r s i t ? " she asked lightly. " 'Twas naught but a n old bit of paper." "It was valuable to me," I said. "You would keep i t ? " she asked jealously. "Indeed I would, if I could but find it," I answered. "Do you know who wrote i t ? " she questioned. "No," T-replied. "My f a t h e r gave it to me to find out, if possible, the writer—It is strange where it could have disappeared t o . " "I am sure I could not have lost it," she affirmed. "I slept with it attached to a slender chain about my neck." "You a r e sure you never laid it down?" I still persistently inquired. "Yes. sure," she began, and then stopped. "Once, now I remember, while at my bath it lay for a few moments on my dressing table/' she added. 'Could anyone have entered you: room t h e n ? " T a s k e d . "No one but my maid or Aunt Elaine." she admitted. ••Then rest assured that one or the other of them have it," I returned. W h a t -would e r t f e e r ^ ^ h ^ a a < - * a a t with t h a t old love l e t t e r ? " she said; 'besides I heard no one at the time." "You say t h a t Lady Dwight is with you?" I said. "I must see her at once —I have a message from the dead which admits of no delay—I have also to claim Raoul Dwight as a brother. , " B r o t h e r ! " she exclaimed. "Yes," I nodded. "Let us hasten to the Gastle—too long has this news -been on the way-^there you—shall learn all." "It is dangerous," she returned; "for if the men see you they would set upon you and—" she shuddered. "I shall try to hold my own,' I grimly said; "but against Raoul Dwight X will never lift hand nor sword—I would be no second Cain." "Ah. you would not, but would not he?" she asked. "He hates you!" "Yes," I sighed, "we were ever biting and snarling. I would I had known sooner t h a t he was my brother. I long to t a k e his hand in good fellowship." "With him love and h a t e war e q u a t ly, as good and evil do. but then, you must remember he thinks he loves rue." she whispered. "J would he did not—I would he did not," I said. "Then it would be comparatively easy sailing. He would umlerstand when he knew all. But haw can he help it?" I looked at her with all a lover's fondness. I deemed the world might envy me and with cause. — • NEWSflF THE NATION RIOTING AND BLOODSHED MARKS THE CHICAGO TEAMSTERS' GREAT STRIKE. 8EVERAL LABOR LEADERS ARE INDICTED ON CHARGES OF CONSPIRACY.

Pope Brown, Chairman of the Georgia Railroad commission, to reduce the passenger rate in Georg'a from three to two cents per mile was protested against by the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, the Order rf Railway Conductors, and unions of the blacksmiths, machinists and telegraphers, boilermakers, railway trainmen, carpenters and joiners, clerks and car men. These organizations employed an attorney especially to represent them, who urged that such a reduction would work against the prosperity of the state and lead to a i eduction in the number of railroad employes, as well as of their wages.

ECZEMA FOR TWO YEARS. Little Girl's Awful Suffering With Ter* rible Skin Humor—Sleepless Nights for Mother—Speedy s. Cure by Cuticura. Two Towns Ruined. Twenty-one persons were killed and scores injured in Laredo and in New Laredo, Texas, by a. tornado w h i c h tore through the cities late Friday night, crossing the Rio Grande. Rumors of others killed in place* outside Laredo, lack confirmation. The property damage is large. A trip through Laredo fails to show a block which has not suffered from the storm. Trees,' fences, telegraph and telephone poles, corrugated roofs, chimneys and walls and debris of all kinds strew the streets. Conditions in Xew Laredo, across the Rio Grande, are similar to those- existing on this side. It is hot definitely known how many dead or injured'fhere are in New Laredo. \\ hen the storm struck Laredo the huts occupied by the poorer classes were raxed, and as the wind increased in force, the more substantially constructed buildings were unroofed and in many cases were demolished. "My little girl had been suffering for two years from eczema, and during that time I could not get a night's sleep, as her ailment was very severe.

"Now it is proverbially known t h a t we Feltons a r e good haters, still this is the time when t h e exception proves the rule. I began by being angry with you about t h e falcon, and when I found the paper on the floor—oh, I assure you I was wild! I decided to punish you by not letting you know who I really was. The fops of London thought it a good joke and entered into the sport with a zest, even Nell lent a hand. "It might have had a sad end in?, had I killed Raoul Dwight in t h a t duel which we were to fight.'' I said. "Ah! I believe in the luck of the Feltons,'' she laughed. "Nevertheless, I thank God, provi: dence, or t h e King, that it never came to pass," I said heartily. ."'I think you have to thank my father for that," she returned dryly; "he ;"TTwltffwho induced, the King to forget his promise and have you imprisoned." Then she added tenderly: "I shall h a v e to mak-e amends to you, Quentin"—my n a m e fell softly from "1 think not." I said,, "for I was vobbod of nothing.

Then I bethought me of Gil and his chagrin over the missing paper; also She laughed d'eliciously at my look, whereat I took her into my arms and lifted her high (I was not such a weakling but I could do that) and kissed h e r lingeringly on her mouth "Come let us to Lady Dwight." 1 said soberly, when J had put her down. She led the way through a disused kitchen and I followed. We met no one. The few servants were busy in the rear. We could hear them talk ing as we mounted the staircase. We had hardly reached thp landing when Rosemary cried: "Quick, in here." She opened the door of a large room and we passed hurriedly in. Then I heard the sound of a man's heavy tread. She pushed me behind a hanging a r r a s and stepped beside me, pulling the curtains together. I could almost h e a r her heart beat. "I say you do wrong," said a high voice. It was Lady Dwight who' was speaking. "I care not if he is my son—you shall "not force her into a distasteful marriage—1 shall not consent to it." "Wrong! not at all, Madame," the strenuous voice of Lord Felton replied. "You should be pleased—she will bring to your empty coffers much gold." His tone was ironical in the extreme- "Gold—gold is not all In this world, let me tell you, my Lord Felton," she auld. -^Mtireever; it is outrageous to keep us here in this ruinous old place.

Frank C. Bigelow, the defaulting Milwaukee bank president, has confessed an indebtedness to banks, commercial institutions and estates, of which he had charge, which will aggregate between $2,000,000 and'$3,000,000. Based on his confession, a voluntary petition in bankruptcy has been filed in the •United States district court which contains the names of as many of Mr. Bigelow's creditors as he can remember, together with a list of assets on which Mr. Bigelow's valuation is $1.- 4151.000. By his own'admission, his creditors extend all over the United States. One estate has been looted, his indebtedness to the Broadhead estate being $100,000. The debt is unsecured. It is also believed other trusts held by the former banker have suffered. Those familiar with the situation and with what information they can glean from the former banker, fear that his liabilities will run) up to considerably more than his present estimate, as they be- Ireve subsequent revelations will reveal transactions of even a more startling nature. So far as could be ascertained, Bigelow had no system of keeping a record of his financial transactions and the schedule of liabilities and assets had to be made up from a list made in pencil on half a sheet of note paper in Bigelow's handwriting. Mr. Bigelow was not positive of the names of some of his creditors, nor of the nature of some of the companies and p'nrhjflfl; m JmniL-tu. refresh his Health is Your Heritage.

Not in the whole history of Michigan has a courthouse been dedicated uader such, auspicious circumstances at those which will mark the formal opening to the public of the handsome new structure at'Fltnt, Mich., of which residents of Genesee county are so Justly proud. On Wednesday,. June 7 next, the courthouse will be officially turned over to the county by the contractors and happily indeed this occasion com^s at a time when the city of Flint will be celebrating its fiftieth anniversary. The dedicatory cetomonies will be conducted by. the bar of Geneseo county, at which tin e an address by Mr. Justice Brown of the United States supreme court on "The Supreme Court of the United States" will be made. At this time Bishop John S. Foley, ex-Mayor Maybury and Mayor Codd of Detroit, together with Governor Warner and the military staff, and Senators. Alger and Burrows will be present. The courthouse aad jail have been erected at a cost of $100,000. The courthouse is one of the finest In the state and is an imposing and substantial looking structure. Red Findlay brick have been used in the building. Pilasters of white brick and a foundation of the same, together with carved capitals and turned bases, both of atone, complete the list of materials as viewed from t h j exterior, except for the magnificent huge stone columns which •form a part of the facade extending from the second floor over any old resident of the city who would enjoy seeing the fri^ads of his youth who were residents of Flint at some time, but who have moved away, will be given this opportunity, since letters from friends already :eceived indicate ! the large number of former citizens 1 who will participate in the home-coming celebration. There will be something doing every minute from early morning till late at night on the two days, and It la simply inconceivable that so many plans could have been proposed and put Into execution, but under a committee of about fifty of Flint's leading citizens the celebration has been planned and arranged in a systematic, orderly manner, with the comfort and pleasure of the visitors always a factor.

Kodol Dytpepsla OoN Dtgwte what yoti Mta Flint's New Courthouse. the main entrance at the front of the building. Upon catering the corridor of the courthouso the strarirer- feels a thrill of pleasure at the modern architectural design. The walls. are covered with several nicely-Mending shades of Tennessee and New England marble, the whole making up the Soldiers aiul Sailors* memorial. The comity clerk, register of deeds, judge of pi-abate and county treasurer all have offices on ihe main floor of the building. A feature of the interior arrangements is seen in the fact that every officer in the building will have at hi* disposal a private office and a vault of modern design. On the first floor i obtained the finest view of the courthouse roivnda. The height of it, from the first floor to the top of fhe dome's interior, is eighty-three feet. The llnish is ii. a light blue,,resembling gyratly the blue of the sky on a clear -lay. Ascendini; to the second floor/Of the building, access bein£ gained by either of two flights of marble stairs, are s&en the circuit courtroom, now equipped with 128 <.pera/chairs and furniture of a special/pattern; the supervisors' r-oom, ne^t" In size to the courtroom, at the opposite end of the building and cmitajviiiug 108 chairs for the accommodation of the county's legislators and others who may desire to attend their/deliberations. In addition to thest^'rooms on this floor are the office or the circuit judge, also his own private office; office of the circuit court's stenographer; two spacious jury rooms and the same number devoted to the use'of witnesses during the time when court is in session, and an attorney's room. / T h e general finish ot the woodwork throughout the entire building is that of old English, white oak being the material used in the construction. The furniture of/course corresponds with, the woodwork, and the walls are of a color that harmonizes well. The Flint city council appropriated $2,060 and the generous merchant'? and others of the city have subscribed $5,000, which sums will • be used at the celebration of the birth of the city, which occurred fifty years ago, and which is to be held on June 7 and 8 and at which time, in addition to the dedication of the comthouse, a beautiful Carnegie Library :s also to be dedicated and the cornerstone of a new $65,000 postofP.ee is 10 be laid.- For these events great preparations have been made and nothing even approaching it has ever befoiv been attempted In the state. President Angell of the University ot Michigan will deliver an address at the dedication of the library, and Vice-Prerident Fairbanks will make an address at the time the postoffiee cfjrnerstom. is laid.

The fCJajr of Bawdaer* About a mile distant from the rock) promontory of Braich-y-Pwil, the ex treme westerly point of north Wales lies the island of Ifardsey, the home ol a' singularly isolated commuuity. Th< island is the property of Lord Newbor ougb and was a favorite resort of the third baroa, grandfather and predeces sor in the title of tbe present peer. At that period tbe island was even more remote and out of tbe way than at present. Communication with Pwllheli was infrequent and uncertain. Consequently the Bardsey folk formed an entirely independent community, forced by circumstances to conduct their own affairs without special reference to the laws of the country. Lord Newborough instituted tbe office of "king." Selecting from the islanders one of superior parts and character, be Invested him with tbe general authority wblci* he himself possessed as landlord, bid ding the rest to obey his ruling, abide by bis decisions in case of dispute and in general respect bis authority. Partly In Jest, partly to strengthen his vice gerent's position, he conferred upon that worthy the title of "king of Bard Bey" and bestowed upon him a crown, a treasure dnd an army. The "crown" was a gorgeous diadem of brass, won drously embossed and wrought; the "treasure" a silver casket brought froir Italy, and the "army" a wooden figure painted to represent a soldier.

'Special Correspondence.) American /pleasure seekers have at ast discovered Bermuda. The first conilderable winter emigration was made reoently on the Bermudian, whose arrival at Hamilton marked an epoch, it :s asserted, in the history of the island. Half the population of the coljny from St. George's to Somerset was assembled on Ffout street to see the new boat warp up in the dock. The passengers, who had left New York in a snowstorm, walked off into the bright, sunny, flower scented air and saw all the flags ashore flying to welcome the new boat that brought ihem. While the Bermudian lay two days at dock a dinner and a reception were given, on board. It is now the height of the winter season in Bermuda. The bi-weekly dances at the hotels are beginning, and the gayety of social and outdoor life is increasing. Golf, sailing and bwiaaming, excursions to the reefs and to the deap sea coral gardens in the clear waters, yachting in the great sound and exploration of the island, riding driving and walking occupy the visitor from the frozen north. There are fewer invalids iu Bermuda this year and more active outdoor people than ever before. There are many students of nature on sea and shore, taking their pleasure in leisurely observation of the wonders of the coral NI.es or .botanizing or studying birds ar fishes. Pleasure for Biologists. The Bermuda Marine Biological Station, incorporated by the Colonial legislature under the auspices of the women go about in white dresses whenever the sun shines again after a shower. The moonlight lends a peculiar charm to this winter resort. The sanitary regulation requires the roofs of all buildings to be white and to be washed frequently. The rain caught from these roofs in great tanks and cisterns constitutes the domestic water supply, and the insuring of its purity by the whitewash regulation furnishes the condensed essence of poetry on a moonlight night. It is not the light on the sea or in the heavens alone; it is not the clarity of the air nor the scent of flowers, nor the breadth of ocean shining before you alone that fascinates one in Bermuda. There is besides the charm of the light on the white roofs of the little homes, or the large ones that cuddle among the cedars and palmettos and thickets of oleander trees or behind high hedges of scarlet hibiscus in bloom. Peace and plenty abound in Bermuda. There is no bitter poverty in the islands; there are no slums. Cleanliness and good nourishment have pre- \ented contagion. The Bermudians are much of one family in mutual interest and good will. As all the world knows, they are descendants of the English, who settled these islands in Shakespeare's time, and the colored population about them are descendants of those blacks brought here by their ancestors from the West Indies before the days of Wilberforce.

Some of them are «f Nottingham make and probably date from the seventeenth century. They are all drinking vessels. The bears are shown muzzled and in various attitudes. Shakespeare has references to the sport of bear-baiting. Bear gardens, each kept by a bearaward, were common in hia day. Bullfighting and cockfighting are also illustrated. The figure of the cock is formed of the ware which is characteristic of the Asbury- Wood period and previous to the cream were development of Joaiah Wedgwood. The yellowish white la shaded by patches of brown. The black eye is characteristic of the period.

Hia caae shows how profoundly grip poisons the system aud how obstinately it resists all ordinary efforts to eradicate it. Few cases can be worse than Mr. Newman's for he had head, heart and stomach troubles combined with great weakness. He recently said : " The attack of grip which I had. eight years ago left mo iu a very bad fix. I became nearly deaf and my head ached continually and was filled with hissing and roaring sounds. My heart fluttered aud had regular rnuuiug-away spells. My stomach was so sore that I could hardly bear a touch on that part of my body. I had a>great deal of pain iu the region of my liver and the doctor said that organ was enlarged. My kidneys ached so at times that I could hardly stand." " Didn't you give up and go to bed?" he was asked. 4 'No, I simply wouldn't. My head and my.back ached dreadfully, but I obstinately dragged myself about, kept growing worse and fiually ran down to almost nothing." •' What did yon do to get relief?" " First I tried a doctor, but he did me no good. Then I took all kinds of advertised preparations but nothing proved helpful uutil I began to u§e Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. As soon as I got them I knew that I had a t last bit the right remedy for my case. The very first box did more for me than anything else I had ever taken. They gave me relief right away and in three months they positively cured me. I think I was scarcely ever in better health iu my life than Inni at present." "Mr." "William A. Newman isTa well^" known Camden county fanner, living at Sngrada, Missouri. His case was a severe test for any remedy, but Dr. Williams' Pink Pills met every requirement.

I became weak and pale, with severe bearing-down pains, fearful backaches ami frequent dizzy spells The doctors prescribed for me, yet I did not improve. I would bloat after eating and frequently become nauseated. I had an acrid discharge and pains down through my limbs so f could hardly walk. It was as bad a case of female trouble as I have ever known. Lvdia E. Pinkhaui's Vegetable Compound, however, cured me within four months. Since that time I have had occasion to recommend it to a number of patients suffering from all forms of female difficulties, and I find that while it is considered unprofessional to recommend a patent medicine.

On the day of a Chinese marriage uninvited friends and neighbors, or even perfect strangers, are allowed to come in and see the bride and they may make any remark about her, or to her, they please, says the Boudoir. Sometimes things horribly rude and disgusting are said: To try her temper a man will say: "Fetch your husband a cup of tea!" If she does so, all will say jeeringly: "What an obedient wife you are I" If she sulks and does not do as she is told they remark: "That is a pretty vixen with which to begin married life..

"A few weeks ago, while sojourning in Carson City, the capital of Nevada, I witnessed a scene t h a t struck me as exceedingly curious, and which probably was never duplicated anywhere in this country," said T. B. Gardiner of Chicago at the Shoreham. "A friend of mine who was on good t e r m s with the warden ot the state penitentiary took me to that institution on a Sunday afternoon, and there I saw all the convicts, numbering several hundred, assembled in t h e long dining room of the structure, playing poker, seven-up, monte, faro and nearly all the gambling games known to western sports. Don't think for a moment that these men were merely j playing for fun; they were bettingj chips which stood for sure-enough j money and the play was just as serious and as much on the level as j though it were taking place in a reg-! ular gambling establishment. "This gambling, my friend told me, j was never allowed on any other day j but Sunday, the idea being t h a t as the state laws licensed it there was no | valid objection to the inmates of t h e ! prison—engaging therein. -Every convict was issued checks showing how much cash there was to his credit, and if he chose to lose these checks representing his money at cards it was his own affair. While the men played, which they did with all the fervor of free gamesters, a couple of guards sat watching them with loa<t£(l Winchesters in their la,ps, ready to put down the slightest outbreak, or least indication of disorder with a form of argument that scarcely ever fails to persuade."—Washington Post.

The effort to live within one's in- ' come is a small matter when compared with the task of living without an income. It seems to be the general feeling that there is no room for the hoops k i r t - i n this crowded, pushing, jostling generation. According to the prediction of Astronomer Flammarion, the summer of 19('o is to be a hot one. If you see it in the stars it's so. Dr. Laquer of Wiesbaden announces that as a rule Americans die young. But they live a lot. while they have the opportunity. Whatever the records may show, no college professor need think he can keep Young America from celebrating the Fourth of July. An Oxford professor-—Oxford, mind you—says 50 per cent of the people of England are merely bleached negroes. Wow! And likewise gee! The physician who declares that there is no more water in cucumbers than in milk must have got hold of a sample of real country milk. s From all we can see at present, a •whirl of lace and embroidery will be "the thing this" year below, and pericaboos as daring as ever on high.

The man who killed that white deer down in Maine needn't think that he .has stopped the appearance of whitedeer stories in our Imaginative-' exchanges. Chas. Smith, the Eaton Rapids boy who shot and killed Mort Kimes, j January 17, was found guilty of mur- ; der in the first degree, in one of the I shortest murder trial* ever known in j Charlotte, or Michigan. Only six hours was required to dispose of t h e case. Judge Smith had to order the jury taken to their rooms to give him time to prepare his charge. Charles Smith, aged 21, and his wife, who was May Wagner, aged 16, lived in a wood cutter's hut near Eaton Rapids. ! Morton Kimes. aged 16, boarded with } them. Mrs. Smith was the only woman occupant of the house where : half a dozen men besides her husband ! and Kimes lived. On January 11, so j Smith claims, he discovered Kimes I hugging and kissing his wife. In ! spite of his angry protests, this cortj duct, is said to have been continued. ) The night before the murder Smith's I wife refused to occupy the same room i with him. Smith brought a shotgun { h.to camp the next day and, entering j the room where Kimes and a com- I panion were sitting, aimed the gun at I Kimes and shot him through the i breast, killing him instantly. Storm Was Fierce. One of the fiercest hail and wind J storms ever witnessed in Grand Rapids came up Thursday afternoon. Hail ! in the shape of huge, hard icicles fell ! with terrific force, breaking windows ' in hundreds of residences and doing untold damage to fruit in the surrounding country. The storm lasted an i hour. The hail entirely destroyed tho windows of every greenhouse in tru* city, entailing a total loss of $5,000. ; Skylights on .Monroe and Canal s t r e s s . . : were broken and 80 square feet of ' glass in the Gilbert block was smashed.

Now that Mont Pelec is showing signs of activity again, perhaps the people of Martinique will consider again whether it wouldn't be wise for them to move. Smallpox Epidemic. The smallpox epidemic is becoming a serious menace in Kalamazoo and the abrogation of all public meetings is being advocated by cool headed citizens. Two high school pupils were taken ill with the dread disease within the past 24 hours and this in connection with the illness of two leading high school teachers is causing considerable alarm. Charles A. Carr was taken ill with smallpox Monday and removed to the detention hospital and the school board ordered the high school building to be closed. Tuesday Earle Gbodenow, a hLgh school senior, was also stricken and taken to the hospital. The situation is certainly more serious now than at any time "Will you please tell me how to recover an umbrella?" writes somebody to a newspaper. The usual rule is not to try to recover it. It is easier to grab somebody else's. and th? most vigorous measures win have to be taken. Young Carr had the d i s e a s e since Friday night and broke out with pustules on Monday morning, but did not go to a physician until Monday night.

Although there is a lit- j tie more than 100.000 tons of coal at I Vladivostok, with the reinforcement of the fleet by the Gromoboi, Kossia and Bogatyr and the torpedo boats and submarines now in the harbor there, they claim that Rojestvensky could drive Togo off the sea and leave Fiel 1 Marshal Oyama's army stranded in Manchuria. Simultaneously with the increasing tension over the approach of a sea battle, comes news that Field Marshal Oyama is pressing the Rus sian right along Liao river, north e>f Faikoman, as if he is beginning, a general engagement. Conspiracy Uncovered. Sarrion de Herrera, former king-at a r m s of the Spanish court, has been arrested at the instance of the Brazilian minister in Madrid-on the charge of conspiring witrr^otfrere a g a i n s t - t h e government of Brazil. A search of the residence of Senor de Herrera re suited in the discovery of a number of commissions for officers who were to organize an army in the state of Kunani. The commissions bore the stamp of that state. Documents taken from Do Herrera's residence show that organization was proceeding on a vast-scale and that nearly 1,000 men had already been recruited in England. 4.0(10 in France and 4,000 in Spain, among t h e j a s t n a m e d .being included many Spanish reserve officers, some of whom are actually serving.as active, officers. An - ex-revointionar-y Spanish captain/ who headed the rising in Badajos In 188:,. holds a commission of, colonel tn the future army of Kunani, and it is stated that he is already receiving- pay through an English banking house at which funds are deposited. De H e r r e r a styled himself minister plenipotentiary of Spain for the state of Kunani. The Brazilian government got wind of the affair and communicated with its minister at Madrid. The Spanish authorities were notified and acted promptly and the arrest of De H e r r e r a followed. THE STATE LE6ISIATUBE. The bill to add to the Michigan national g u a n M t troop of oavalry, a battery of light artillery and an engineer corps is now before the governor and will aoon become a law. Since the days of the civil war the slate h a s never had any militia except infantry, and some of the Spanish war veterans havo be«>n enthusiastic in their desire to see a Michigan troop of cavalry. Rep. Lord's bill, making it compulsory for the banking department to examine every bank in tb>e state at least twice a year, will necessitate taking ^on one or two n6w examiners in the department. The bill does not make express provision for additional help, but the commissioner has power to employ such help as he may need, with certain limitations. The latest figures show that the appropriations for this session will exceed those of two years by about $250,- 000. The senate passed Senator Ashley's bill providing that all fees collected by the coroners of Wayne county shall be turned over to the county.

"It drove him mad'. He fled the town without verifying the note— without seeing the King—without one word to his young wife. The man who planned the dastardly deed was only too well aware of his sensitive nature. Lord Waters joined Cromwell's army, and -thus obtained a divorce from his wife, who had in the meantime gone to France. He loved his first wife so dearly that, believing in her infidelity, she was dead to him henceforth. Later he married again. His second wife soon died; and the lonely man, oppressed by the thought of his first wife and the wrong he might have done her, dragged out a miserable existence in solitude at I.ou;g Haut. The outcome of this brooding of many years was to feel that he had been too hasty; t h a t the page had purposely deceived him. These thoughts so rankled in his brain that they were his death.

Investigation of the Packers- Very general interest has been manifested in the government investigation now in progress into the mode of conducting business by the large pack- I ers located in Chicago and elsewhere. Much has been written upon the alleged illegal and improper modes of business procedure connected with the packing industry; but it seems that so far no definite charge of any kind has been sustained and no proof of illegal or inequitable methods has been dis- T ?le&e4^ta .the public. Whilp .a wave oJL severe criticism of this great industrial interest is now passing over th&„ ; country it might be well to remember that the packers have had as yet no opportunity to make specific denial. : the many indefinite charges of wrongdoing having never been formulated so that a categorical answer could be made. The recent report of Commissioner 1 Garfield, which embodied the results of an official investigation undertaken by the Department of Commerce and —iJabor of the United States, was a vindication of the Western packers, but this result having been unexpected• at- !~tempTs~Tn many quarters to discredit it were made. In view of the situation as it now stands, however, attention may proper- . ly be called to a few facts that owing ; to popular clamor are now being apparently overlooked. Fair treatment in this country has heretofore been accorded to all citizens whose-affairs_assume prominence in the public eye and some of the facts that bear upon tho relation of the packers to the commerce of the country may at this time be briefly alluded to. It would be difficult to estimate the benefits gained by the farmers of the country resulting from the energetic enterprise of the packers, for whatever is of benefit to the farmer is a gain to the, entire commerce of the country. And connected with their continuous aggressive work no feature perhaps hns been more important than their efforts In seel ng outlets all over the world for tho surplus products of the farmer. , Our total exports of agricultural products have gained but little in the pas'. twenty years, and ieaving out corn, . the total of all ether farm products was far less in 190J than in lsyi, u u r in packing house products there was considerable gain during this period, because an organized and powerful force has been behind ihom peeking new and broader markets. Besides the benefits reaped by farmers on account of the onttiprise *?nd energy exercised by the packer* in attaining commercial results by foreign trade, the great development in the manufacture of packing house by-prod-- nets has added enormously to the value of all Ii\o slock raised in the United Starts. The waste material of twenty years ago, then nn expense to the packer, is now eouverted into articles of great value, and. as an economic fact, this must correspondingly increase the value to the farmer of every head of cattle marketed at the numerous stockyards of tho country. Let these facts lie remembered while now' it is so popular to regard the great packin;; industry a i deserving of condemnation.' At least it must be admitted that, so far. there is no adequate reason for the almost unanimous howl that may he h e a r ! everywhere in the face of tlif Garuold report, above alluded to which practically exonerates the packers from the obscure and indefinite charges that have been for some time past made the subject of popular comment. — Jmcricai Homestead.

At last the only two contestants remaining were a real estate operator and the man who had purchased the toys. The two ran the price up to $10,000, when the unknown astonished all present by bidding $20,- 000. That ended the sale, and the premises were knocked down. "Why, mother," said the old man, "that gives us $10,000 above all our debts!" "What name is the deed to be made in?" asked the auctioneer. "Thomas Ooggeshall." "No, no," said the auetloner impatiently; "not the last owner, the pres ent one." "Thomas Coggeshall." The auctioneer looked up surprised. "Make the deed to Thomas Coggeshall," said the purchaser. "What docs it mean?" asked the old woman of her husband. He did not reply. He was as much befogged as she. "Come, ^ a n d in 10 per cent of the purchase money," shouted the auctioneer, "and give me your name, or if you're going to back out say so right off, and I'll m a k e the sale over." The stranger took out a check book, drew a check for $2,000, signed it Thomas Coggeshall, Jr.. and handed It to the auctioneer, who looked at It as much puzzled as ever. . "Will you please explain this riddle?" asked the auct loneer. "Yes, but to my father and mother." Approaching the old couple, he took them both in his arms with: "Don't you know me, father?

Br-MWfCWffl'GZ/mtf (Copyright, lit0.5. by Daily Story Pub. Co.) Colin, Sherwick and myself were meeting again after six years. Our first acquaintance dated back to Yale days. The three of us took our respective degrees the same year, and shortly afterward, when the war broke out—the Spanish-American war —we enlisted, by common consent, with Roosevelt. At the end of hostilities, Colin went home to California, Sherwick struck a government .job in Porto Rico, and I made an ecstatic _ da*^=f#v» iay- old ^ttarte^s^ia-^Eiew York. As luck would have it, we all -cama-outwithout-a-scr&teluconvent.' I did not see her again," he finished sadly. Slierwick and I exchanged glances of compassion for our unhappy friend, seeing that he was deeply and terribly in earnest. "So that i s ^ h y you are a bachelor," I observed gravely. '"Sherwick?" \ turned to him interrogatively. "It's up to you." V . Sherwick cleared his throat, flushed and tried to change the subject. Colin gave him a reproachful stare. "You'lj^ have to do it," ho said. "It's not fair for you to back out, you know/ Re- Colin was East on some legal business, and Sherwick, having thrown up his position in the West Indies, had come to New York on a prospecting tour. I ran across them at the postofflce, and nothing would do but they must come home to lunchqon with me. Colin was one of those distinctly amiable men you meet with occasionally— "TleTlow perfectly"willing'to mafcehimself agreeable whatever the circumstances, situation or company. HeTwent into instant raptures over my house, my servants, my pictures— everything. I told him just to wait •until he saw my wife. Sherwick was lefts demonstrative, but I could see that he was impressed. By the time the salad was served our conversation had somehow veered round from college days and Santiago nights, to the all-potent subject of matrimony. For some reason, the topic seemed to affect Colin unpleasantly. Once or twice, he opened his lips as though to speak, then closed them again—apparently reconsidering. . "Out with it!" I insisted, seeing that he had something to relate, and needed just a little encouragement. Sherwick, too, bent his forces upon him, and together we listened to his story. "She was the only one in the world to me," he went on to say, waiving preliminaries, "and like a dem fool, I didn't have the common sense and decencv to keep her love when I had It. I offended her, stupid jackass that I was, and would not apologize—not even when she threw the chance at my head. One thing led to another, till finally there wasn't anything left for her to do but let me go. And she did, notwithstanding the fact that She appeared. memuer the compact." He made a secret sign and we all laughed. Then Sherwick pulled his face straight and began: "After all,\J.here's<> not much to be said ihat!s new. It's the same old story of a poor man's love and a rich man's money; a weak daughter and Went into raptures over my pictures, she never loved anyone but me— and never would caro for anyone again. Such was the substance of her last words to me. How well I •remember them, and her, as she spoke them: 'You have been the One Man,' she said, her sweet lips quivering, her pearless eyes drowned in tears, 'but you have broken my heart, and I shall never he the same again. Good-bye. I have made my AifauijeuicnU. Next week I enter the a stern father.—we were—practically— engaged to be married,. although there had not been any actual betrothal. You know how those things are. When he found it out, he rushed her off here, to New York, and despite the fact that I wrote her at least a dozen letters, there was never the shadow of a response. Six months later I learned of her marriage to a wealthy stock broker's son. It was her father's doing—every bit of it. He never had any use for me, and knowing that his daughter had irrevocably given her heart to me, was determined to end things between us with as little delay as possible." Colin stretched an involuntary hand across the tabic and grasped .that cf our friend in a sympathetic pressure. "The wonder is that you've stood it," he said. The waiter was clearing away the dishes, and "1 fancied I heard a suppressed groan from Sherwick. "It was hard.enough on me," he said bitterly, "but think of the girl's position. Good Lord, think of the girl!" We we're a long time silent after that, sipping our benedictine and puffing purple towers of smoke ceilingward. Presently Colin pulled out his watch. "Oh, you mustn't think of leaving." I interposed briskly, "till you've met my wife. She'll be in any minute now. I want both of you to know her. I want her to know you!" I thought proudly of my peerless Dolores, wondering inwardly what my two friends would say then! Unutterably thankful that there had been no other for her-r-nor me; that we were, imieed, the Only Ones! "We simply worship the air each ether breathes,"- I went on fervently, "the things each other looks at——" The musical swish of trailing silk cut in on my rhapsody, and the next 1:^^1 :^:.f r.t.paired, muffled up in furs to the aristocratic tips of- her ears—priceless furs my doting old father, the Wall street veteran, had gjiven her. She came toward us with that perfect rhythmic grace that was a part of her, a hand outstretched to each of them as they rose to receive my introduction. On her lips was the adorable smile born of their match* lessness. And then something very funny happened. My wife commenced to laugh in a very much amused fashion, while Colin and Sherwick outdid one another blushing. Dolores was the first to collect herself. "To think that we are old friends after all," she rippled. "1 thought there was something familiar about your names when Dick told me you were here, although I couldn't exactly place you! But I'm delighted you're in New York, and I hope you are going to stay a long time—long enough for us to show you the best sort of a time and get better acquainted. All Dick's friends are mine," she added, with a quick glance in ray direction. "Aren't they?" I nodded without speaking. When she looks at me that way, I shall always feel my heart go faster. After a little desultory conversation, Colin and Sherwick took their departure, promising vto call again on the following day. When the door had closed behind them, I caught Dolores and pulled her down on my knee. "You made a great impression, old girl," I said, pinching the pink lobe of her ear. "I never saw Colin at such a loss for words in my life, and as for Sherwick " I shook my head. Dolores sealed my lips with one of her tiny, fleeting kisses. "They are both just lovely," she said, "and we must do everything—fix up all sorts of jolly larks and things; box parties —then there's the horse show too." She took me by the cheeks and looked down into my eyes with one of her glances; - My anus wentsuddenly about her, and in the instant of transport "thatfollowed, how—Intense, how infinite was my joy that there had been no other for me—tor her! Dolores went to the matinee and I to my club. The next morning we sent notes to Colin and Sherwick, only to learn that both of them had been called away quite unexpectedly. This was a singular coincidence, and neither of lis could understand It. Bul_ what seemed.a .sti 11 raore singular coincidence—at leasflo me—was that we received invitations to the weddings of both within the year. Some People Know.

It is recognized by the man disposed to night work that after the conventional 6:30 o'clock dinner his brain bfgins to get into working order about 8:80 o'clock, and at 11:30 o'clock he may be wider awake and more active in his mentality than at any other period In the twenty-four hours. Yet if he be in normal health, he will find that in going to bed under such conditions, sleep will follow easily and soundly. It is only when insomnia is the sequence of such work that he should call a halt. CAPT. GRAHAM'S CURE. d e e s on Face and Back—Tried Many Doctors Without Success— Gives Thanks to Cuticura.

The immediate causes of headaches vary, but most of them come from poor \>v jK>isoned blood. Iu anaemia the blood is scanty or thiu; the nerves are imperfectly nourished and paia is the way iu which they express their weakness. Iu | colds the blood absorbs poison from the : mucous surfaces, and the poison irritates | tho nerves and produces pain. In rheumatism, malaria and the grip, the poison i iu the blood produces like discomfort. In [ indigestion the gases from the impuro i matter kept iu the system, affect the i blood iu the same way. I The ordinary headache-cures at best I give only temporary relief. They deaden 1 the pain but do not drive the poison out I of the blood.

My monthly periods had ceased and I suffered much -pain, with fainting spells, headache, backache ana bearing-down pains, and I was so weak I could hardly keep around. As a last resort I decided to write you and try Lydia E.

A searching investigation, it is said, is promised t o be made of reports of such wholesale bribery as has never been dreamed of, even in Albany, in connection with the bill of the Stevens committee, fixing the price of gas in New York city a t eighty cents a thousanti= feer:—tfr-te-«ald that it coat t h e Rockefeller barrel no less than $600,- 000 to defeat the Stevens bill and, according to current talk among politicians and lobbyists, the price for a single vote on any measure has been raised during the struggle to $60,000. According to tradition, the highest price Hitherto has been in the neighborhood of $10,000. One well known lobbyist remarked cynically: "There is some difference after all between a congregational minister and a New York politician.

Billy went to the man who had waited on her, asked who she wae aud received the information that she was the Count ess. M. and belonged to one of the oldest families in France.

" 'I am quite sure It is worth more than that.' snld Billy. 'At any rate, I will give you more than that. I will buy your hair on condition that you leave the price to me, it being understood that it is to be more than a napoleon.' "The sad eyes looked into Billy's inquiringly.

B r w d s o n Gacdn«r, aged 65 y e a r * closed his life in Traverse City with a terrible tragedy Monday, shooting a n d instantly killing his wife and i h e a turning t h e 38-caliber rerolver on himself, shooting himself through thetemple, dying instant!/. The tragedy; occurred in the home of ex-Mayor Fuighum, Mrs. Gardner being th» mother of Mrs. Fuighum, with whom she was living. The couple were dl« vorced ten years ago, the facts leading to the divorce not being known, and Gardner went to Lafayette, Ind., itnd up to two weeks ago had not been seen in Traverse City, since. Mrs. Gardner and her daughter were alone in t h e hour.e, when someone knocked at the trout door. Mrs. Fuighum went to the door and opened it, when a man wearing a mask pushed his way in and asked for the man of the house. Mrs. Fuighum ran to the street screaming for help and immediately heard two reports from a revolver, and fell fainting to the walk. When the neighbors arrived they found that "Gardner had dragged his wife to t h e kitchen and shot her. He then tore off the mask and, placing a revolver at each temple, shot himself. The double of man was demenied. Mrs. Gardner was a gentle, refined woman of 58 years, who moved in t h e best social circles, and her tragic death was a shock to her many friends. S^e had neve.- heard from her husband since he went away, 10 years ago. It is said Gardner had a grudge against his son-in-law, dating from before tho marriage of the latter to his daughter,, and it is believed he went to the Fuighum home with the intention of killing the whole family. Gardner's insane disposition is shown from the fact that some years ago he attempted to kili his father. THE MARKETS.

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

It is wrapped in a white shroud stained with red blotches. Then they lift the head slightly out of the water and remove the shroud from the face, splashing water five times upon the mouth. Others, in the meantime, are building a wooden oyre, made of fagots sold near by, and when finished standing three feet or more above ground. The corpse, its dark color showing through the dripping shroud, is: thenjnlaced on the wooden. altar and covered with fagots. This dohef all but two mount the ramparts and" watch the final ceremony. Of the two remaining, one pours oil upon the wood from a small clay dish, while the other gees to the rirekouse above. He soon returns with 'a long straw wisp, blazing at one end. Ho advances to the corpse's head, touches it with the wisp, and then circles the pyre five times, touching the head each time uru.ih..the fifth, when he places. the blv/iing wisp beneath the feet and the whole_p_i_l_e bursts_into flame. When all- is consumed the ashes aro raked' into the river and float away to bliss eternal.—F. J. 0. Alson in Outing. There's a spot on the hillside far away, Whmv in summer the grass grows given; Where, beneath the rustling elm tree's shade A moss-covered stone is seen. 'Tis a quiet and unfrequented spot, A solitude lone and wild; Yet—somebody's hopes are buried there— 'Tis the grave of a little child. In winter, alas! that mossy stone Is hid 'neath a shroud of snow; But around it in springtime fresh and sweet, The daisies and violets grow; And o'er it the summer breezes blow, ' With a fragrance soft and mild, And the autmn's dead leases thickly strew That grave of ft little child. Ami— every year- there's a xedbr_e_ast comes.

Yes.'somebody's hopes lie buried there, . Some mother is weeping in vain. For, though years may come and years may go. 'Twill never come hack again.

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

Car mileage paying has been decided to be as .legal as tho payment of rental for property. In a Pinch, Use ALLEN'S FOOT-EASE. A powder. It cures painful, smarting, nervous feet and ingrowing nails.

A New York retail dealer in men's attire engaged for his ill wife a German nurse. The latter asked her employer to send her new address to Berlin, so that her old mother in the German capital could send her letters to the proper place. Thinking the best way to fix matters would be to put the nurse's name on top of his business card, the merchant did this. The first letter to come from Germany made the letter-carrier giggle as he handed it out. It had the following scribbled ovsr the envelope names and places here being changed: "Madame Julia Hampt, care of Jame3 Broome, dealer in men's clothes, underwear and hats, 2886 Bowery, New York city, N.

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

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

Surely yqu have forgotten that he is away." "But hasn't he got home?" "Certainly not. I don't expect him for a- week." "He was at the bank last night, Mrs. Hamilton. Of that, I am certain." "Then where can he be now?" 'I don't know. I supposed he was here, and I called over to see him as be didn't come to the bank. Perhaps he is at the mill." "Without coming home, Tony?" Young Osborn bit his lips and thought deeply, but each moment grew more bewildered. "Did you speak to h i m ? " asked Mrs. Hamilton. "Yes, and he spoke to me. Banking he'urs are over at four, you know, and it was just after dark that I saw him going into the bank as I was passing. 'Hullo!' I said. It was the first thing I thought to say, for I was surprised to see him so soon. 'Hullo,' he said, and laughed a little. 'Didn't expect me back so soon, did you?' 'No,' I said, *I didn't.' Then he went in and shut the door after him, and I —"Tony, that, coAildnJi have been Mr, Hamilton." "It certainly was. It was his voice I heard, and his form, features, gait, everything. 1 couldn't have been mistaken."' " T o n y , " s a i d Mrs. Hamilton, in a low, terrified voice, "I am afraid you have been deceived. It must have been a burglar." "Oh, no. there isn't the least doubt in the world that it was Mr. Hamilton; none at all." "Was everything right this morn- Tug?"1 — "Yes." "Nothing missing?" "No; nothing at all. All that surprises me is that he isn't here." "He would certainly have been if he had ecme home. That makes me think you have been deceived." For answer Tony took from his vest pocket a small shirt-stud of unique design and handed it to Mrs. Hamilton. "I found it on the desk just as it would have fallen if it had become loosened from his shirt front." "Oh. Tony! What does i t ' m e a n ? " Hamilton 9 T H I MODERN FARMER. How He Uvea, at Compared With . . - .Fifty Year* Ago. he farming life of to-day, as contrasted with that of fifty years ago, is a paradise of comfort and convenience. . T h e lonely loghouse, remote from market and devoid of advantages C a t a half cycle of time has made possible, would scarcely appeal to the present day farmer. The twentiethcentury soil tiller has practically ah the modern comforts. His mall is delivered daily. He has telephonic con* nectlon with the buying and seMing world, affording the best opportunities for marketing to advantage. His home is of recent architecture, constructed of wood, brick or stone, and well furnished. Ho has. modern plumbing and modern heating, and with the advent of acetylene gas, he has modern lighting. At night his home is as attractively illuminated as that of his city brother, for it is a suggestive fact that "acetylene for country homos" has so appealed to the farmer, that of the 80,000 users of acetylene gas in the United States, the farmer is one of the largest of all classes. Ever seeking the best, he has not hesitated in availing himself of this new light. The continued growth and progress of t h i | great country,- ever a cause of wonderment, has no greater exemplification than evolution on the farm. Already the farmer is becoming tbe most envied of men—ths freest, the healthiest, the happiest! RICH REWARD FOR SAILORS. - ImmenseTreasure*^aptw^ed^by-Eng.. iish From SpanJ[ard«u Sea battles at the present time do not result in such great rewards of prize money as formerly. English sailors in times p a s t • h a v e brought great fortunes home after their successful cruises. In the*war with Holland, 1651-1654, English ships are said to have taken 1,700 prizes, worth $30,- 000.000. In 1657 the Spaniards loaded British sailors with treasure. ^They seized two of the Spanish, gatteons so richly laden with gold and jewels that it took thirty-eight jwagons to carry the treasure from Portsmonth to London. In 1761 came the historic capture of the Hermione, the Spanish treasure ship from Lima. The admiral and captains received as their share $325,000 apiece, the lieutenants $65,- 000, warrant officers about $20,000, petty officers nearly $10,000 and even the common seamen $2,500 each. On arriving at Portsmouth the seamen bought, up all the watches in the place and fried them over the galley lire. In hi cQttffi! W Meyer e x * * * happee&tyf we hac tea*! of t n e farmer* of New York Ohio and Pennsylvania (in the 70' when grain from the west began pouring to the Atlantic seaboard), and acted upon the doctrine which the interstate commerce commission h a t enunciated time and again, that no man may be deprived of the advantages accruing to him by virtue of his geographical position. We could not have west of the Mississippi, a population of millions of people who are prosperous and are great consumers* We never should have seen the years when we bttitt 10,000 and 12,000 miles of railway, for there would have been no farmers west of the Mississippi river who could have used the land t h a t would have been opened up by the building of those xailwi"y8*„And if we had Jioi_seen__the years when we could build 10,000 ant 12,000 miles of railway a year, we should not have to-day east of the Mississippi a Bteel and iron producing center, which is at once the marvel and the despair of Europe, because we could not have built up a steel and iron industry if there had been no market for its product. We could not have in New England a great boot and shoe industry; we could not have in New England a great cotton milling industry; we could not have spread throughout New York and Pennsylvania and Ohio manufacturing Industries of the most diversified kinds, because those industries would have no market among the farmers west of the Mississippi river.

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

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

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

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

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

Within three days my] appetite returned and my stomach, troubled me no more. I could digest my food without difficulty and the nervousness gradually diminished. Nature performed her functions without difficulty and I am once more a happy and well woman. OLIVE JOSEPH, IraMLJLtUnttrrldftyyightcinn.

On the Market for Thirty Ymmrm, No more profitable investment can be made for family use, for neighborhood work, or for manufacturing for the wholesale or retail trade on a small or large scale, t h a n t h e Knitting Machine; and that there is nothing which requires so small an investment of money with which a man, woman or family can make a living so easily and surely on one or more of these machines. It must b e remembered t h a t the "manufacture of seamless hosiery or otherwise t h a n by hand, as is now made on the Branson Machine, is only a recent thing, and t h a t the business is only in its infancy.

OVER FOUR MILLIONS OF DOLLARS MUST BE PAID INTO STATE TREASURY. DECISION IS SURPRISING AND EXCEPTS ONLY A GRAND T R U N K DIVISION. By an opinion handed down by Judge George P. Wanty, in the United States court this afternoon, the slate of Michigan wins a sweeping victory over the twenty-eight railway cc^paTrtFs"-wtoch opposed in the courts the collection of taxes under the ad valorem act of 1901. Only one road, tho Grand Trunk is excepted in the decision, and the excep lion is made under an old territorial acL of 1834. In mere money value up to date the cases involved $4,100,000 and the precedent that is involved affects the railways of the whole country and every state ana municipal government. It was the claim of the railways thai the ad valorem act was in violation of the fourteenth amendment of the federal constitution, and that they were being discriminated against because the general property- of the state, under the general tax law, was undervalued. In his opinion Judge Wanty places a negative answer to each and all )f these principal claims of ihe railways. He gives negative answers to these of The' unk—or • - ' • • •,."••#&!}»**•••, , ; • ' .

No longer ago than 1898 wheat was the principal crop in Michigan, but since that time there are three crops that outrank It in value in this state. The value of t h e principal crops raised in the state in 1903 shows that hay is the leading product of the farms, the value of that product- in the year named being $2ir.500,000. Corn comes second in the list with a value of $20,000,000, the oats yield for the year was worth $13,000,000, nnd the wheat yield was worth $11,- 000,000. The pgtato crop of the year was worth $10,000,000. The Michigan clip of wool in 1903 was worth $2,500,- 000 and was exactly equaled by the sugar beet crop of that year. The bean crop was worth $5,000,000 in 1903. while in 1S99 it was scarcely Jiioxe than, .one-halt the .-value. The value of the principal farm since 189G. In that year the total value of the crops was $4G,000,00O, while in 1903 the crops were worth $9:1,()00,000. The banner year of production and prices was 1901. when the principal crops of the state sold for $104,000,000. NEWS OF THE WORLD CABINET CHANGES ARE COMING — MORTON TO RETIRE—ALSO SAID HAY WILL. BLUEBEARD HOCH, CONVICTED, NOW WEEPS A N D H O W L S IN HIS CELL. HOW C R I M I N A L S A N D DISEA8E ARE SCATTERED IN T H E U N I T E D STATES. "Gone Board Crezy." "The state has gone board crazy," said Representative Petitt on the floor of the house in opposition to the bill providing for an examining and registration board for trained nurses. "We have a barber's board and a horseshoer's board and a host of other boards that are just as useless. This board would be only an added expense to the state. I am a member of tho public health committee, but I never knew when this bill \vn^ reported out." Hay's Retirement. From a high source it is learned that there will be but two changes in the cabinet within the next few months. Jolm Hay, according ~Uj-44iis information, is to retire aa secretary of state and Paul Morton as secretary of the navy. In spite of the repeated reports that Mr. Hay would- relinquish the state department portfolio, considerable surprise is felt at this latest apparently authentic news, for the reason that the denials from his friends have been most positive. It is believed, however, that on the advice of his physicians he has determined to step out of public life in order to avert the serious consequences which continued activity might result in. That Mr. Hay, while improved in health, is by no means a well man, is, admitted by .his • intimates. There is absolutely no intimation as to who is likely te succeed him. p questions even fri The case Grand Trunk, but the Grand T t THOTCRKETST - Whisky may not be "property." according to the Kansas supreme court. but it has made many a man feel as though he owned-the earth.

It may be so in Boston, but not all laces are so cultured. as it is given in the TndTvTdual case, the Detroit, Grand Haven & Milwaukee— defence is also made on the basis of an act passed in 1834. It appears, according to the judge's finding, that the I-resent Detroit. Grand Haven & Milwaukee company is a successor of the old Detroit & Pontiac Railway company, and that it succeeds therefore to the old. act, by which the tax assessment is limited to an amount not in excess of_ 1^ per cent of its capital stock. The" court, finds in this regard that the ad valorem act of 1901 does not .impair the old act and tho injunctionagaitist- Uie-aiui+ttH'-genei-al^pra.y-ed for in the Grand Trunk bill is granted.

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

Hoch Convicted. • Johann Hoch, whose marriages and nurders make Bluebeard's record trivial by comparison, was on Saturday afternoon found guilty of wife murder in ihe first degree, and commended to the hangman. The convicted wife poisoner, who all through his trial seemed to regard the charge against him as a joke, and its possible outcome- a matter of no consequence, Koemed to realize for the first time the situation in which he is placed. He spent the greater pari of the day in his cell weeping, and at times his sobs were audible throughout the greater part of the jail. His lamentations brought scanty sympathy from his fellow prisoners, who jeered at him and constantly urged him to "brace up and die like a'man." Several persons called during the day, but. Hoch would not talk lo them for more than a minute ' at a -time. He' walked constantly up and down his cell, heaping malediclions up courts, juries and the police. When he ceased this he would sit down, bury his face in his hands ami weep. Oniy Half a Baby. A man who has recently traveled in Ireland says that in _a .poor Httle cottage of Two rooms he saw a married couple and seven children. Hearing a baby cry, he asked to see it, and explained t h a t , h e took an interest in babies, having one at home. The infant was produced for inspection, and the mother asked, proudly: "Is yours as big as that, sir?" To which he replied. "I think it is a little bigger." Instantly the instincts of the mother were roused, and, tossing her head, she said. "So well it might be; that's only half of ours; the other half is with God. We had twins."

Wood are seven killed and nineteen wounded. Pala nnd his remaining followers, in accordance with Moro tradition, prefer deaih to capture. Pala was *i noteil slave trader and warrior when the Americans occupied tho Islands. Lalor he escaped with his followers to the island of Pula Sekar. near Borneo. One of Pala's leaders deserted and took refuge in the British settlement at Lahad. Pala. discovering his whereabouts, landed with a following and demanded of the British magistrate that he turn the deserter over to him. The demand was not complied with, and Pala ordered a massacre. Twenty- five persons, including several Britons were killed. Pala escaped to the island of Jolo nnd organized the present uprising. A Fable.

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

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

The attack of Thomas W.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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