Richmond Planet

THE RICHMOND PLANET St. Lukes in Turmoil. They Split Up in Two Factions, Mone to Be Divided, J. Thomas Hewin Leads One Side, John W. Martin Leads, the Other. The Supreme Grand Council I. O. of St. Luke, of which Mr. Junius Archer of Chula, Va., was chief, met at the Third Street A. M. E. Church last Tuesday week and continued in session until Friday of that week. The sessions were characterized by scenes of great confusion. It seems that Mr. Harrison Smith was the leading figure on one side, supported as he was by other leading workers and that Lawyer J. Thomas Hewin backed up by Chief Archer was the leader of the other. MUCH FILIBUSTERING The latter comprising the rural districts was in the majority. The former which represented most of the city delegates filibustered to such an extent as to prevent the conduct of all business. The aid of the police authorities was invoked, but this did not tend to mend matters as the police only prevented outside interference. THE FINAL RESORT As a final resort, it being utterly impossible to either do business or elect officers, a committee or five from both sides was appointed to draw up articles of separation and the money of the Endowment Department will be divided up between the councils. Lawyer Hewn Claims to have secured 65 out of over ninety councils. He will incorporate under a new name and will have headquarters in the building where his office is now located. He was chosen temporary president. THE OFFICERS ELECTED The sid...e against Lawyer Hewin met and organized by electing John W. Martin of Baltimore, Chief, Rev. H. M. Henderson of Newport News, Va., Vice-Chief, Mrs. Belle Christian of Richmond, Financial Secretary, C. W. Simms of Baltimore, Recording Secretary, Mrs. Fanny Dammalls, treasurer. They are not making any specific claims, but announce that they are already down to business. They will retain the original name if possible. Both sides seem to be satisfied with the result. RACE NOTES AFAR Prominent Whites Attend. The opening of the new bank home of the Mechanics' Savings Bank of Richmond, Va., June 27, 1910, was most conspicuous affair in all of Richmond, Va., the place known at one time as the capital of the confederacy. The fact that this institution is the production of colored men of finance caused a large attendance of the valliant white gentlemen and the beautiful white ladies who fitted to and fro, gasing upon and admiring the magnificence of this remarkable production in the creation of Richmond's strength of money interests managed by colored people. The Hon. D. C. Richardson; mayor, and members of the board of aldermen and common council came up in their automobiles with their chauffeurs to witness the opening of the bank which is one of the most handsome buildings in Richmond, Va., situated on the Northwest corner of Third and Clay.

THE GRAND CHANCELLOR TRAVELS New Lodges Instituited—He Speaks in the Southwest—A Pythian Revival. Ivanhoe, Va., August 30, 1910.—Grand Chancellor John Mitchell, Jr., of the K, of P, N. A., S. A., E., A. A. and A., spoke here last night to an audience of white and colored people and his address is the subject of general comment here today by all who heard him. He discussed "Racial Progress and its Meaning," for over an hour to this assemblage that listened with rapt attention and frequently applauded his remarks. At its conclusion Sir J. F. Bentley of Rural Retreat, District Deputy Grand Chancellor, proceeded to arrange for the initiation of the members of the Knights of Pythias Club. After the ceremonies the following officers of Fair-view Lodge were in stalled: Chancellor Commander, Rev G. E. Harrington, Master of Work; F. H. Lewis, Vice Chancellor, James S. Crockett, Sr.; Keeper of Records and Seal, William Cloud; Master of Finance, William Washington; Prelate, Rev G. W. Payne; Master of Exchequer, Lee Scott; Interior Guard, Charles Washington; Outer Guard, James Smith; Master at Arms, Ed. Gilmore; Trustees, George Brown, Reuben Holiday, James White; Attendants, Charles Howard, Jesse Hardy, Ray Brown, James Braxton. This lodge was instituted by the efforts of Sir J. F. Bentley. A repast was served. It was dark when the people left for their homes, the skies being overcast, but it was not long before the yard and hall were deserted and the laughing candidates had dispersed for their homes. New Lodge Organized. Pulaski, Va., Aug. 31, 1910 Grand Chancellor John Mitchell, Jr. arrived here yesterday at 3:43 P. M. from Ivanhoe, Wythe County, Va. where he instituted a new lodge of Knights of Pythias, N. A., S. A., E. A. A. and A. While he received a telegram telling that a club was ready at Lynchburg and that he would be expected there to set up a new lodge. This was confirmed upon reaching here and he will leave here this morning for that point to do the work. Last night the large Knights of Pythias' Hall here was literally (Continued on Fifth Page.)

HENRY CRUTCHFIELD, Editor, Office: 1215 E. Broad St., Richmond, Va. Just as we were about to prepare our writing for this column, we were attracted by the sound from a drum corps; being a lover of music we hastened to ascertain the cause at this early part of the day. It was about 7:30 o'clock A. M. On reaching the northwest corner of Third and Clay Streets immediately in front of the newly erected Mechanics' Savings Bank, that magnificent structure of which the entire community of colored people feel proud; to our great surprise we behold a well drilled and regulated company of boys, known as Pythian Cadets with their guns and other equipments for encampment under the command of Col. Roscoe Mitchell. The scene was indeed inspiring. Colored soldiers in Virginia are a thing of the past i. E. While many of them are soldiers at heart and possess every quality and capacity as such individually: collectively as in the formation of soldier companies like in the days of old with their equipments they are not and we feel they will never again be so organized, be their desire ever so strong, unless some foreign nation will again threaten and insult the dignity of our country and the need of the Negro soldiers be felt and his services needed to save our country from defeat and disgrace as the Negro did at San Juan Hill, during the Spanish-American war. These little Pythian Cadets decided to march to and were on their march to Seven Pines to take a glimpse of the old battle-field, the thought of which seemed to encourage them; after which they will march about a league in a westerly direction therefrom, and encamp at Fulton Park. Too much praise cannot be given General John Mitchell, Jr. the head of the Pythian Order in Virginia, for the management and success of the same. Let every parent who can put his boy in the Pythian Cadets, where he can be inspired to noble deeds and daring. Train the boys the way you would have them go, and if it is proper, they will not depart there- from, when they become men. These cadets reminded us of our boyhood days when we cherished the thought of soldierly and practiced as such in little companies, herein, no doubt were moulded the seed of daring, which would now blossom were there an opportunity consistent with an honest justifiable reason. May God save these boys, increase their strength numerically and otherwise and pave the way whereby they may become honor flowers as it were, of the entire American Republic. Last Sunday morning services at Fifth Street Baptist Church were sad- dened by the funeral of Felix Nelson Miller. Our pastor preached an im- pressive funeral service. The choir sang the favorite hymn of the de- cease, viz: "My days are gliding swiftly by," etc. Mrs. Carrie V. Haw- kins sang a sweet solo suited to the occasion. The funeral of Bro. James Mayo took place Monday evening at 3:30 o'clock at The Fifth Street Baptist Church. At 3:30 o'clock communion services were held, Pastor W. F. Graham, presiding. Among the visiting ministers were Rev. Drs. T. J. King of New York, who offered prayer over wine and J. C. Brown who spoke thereover. Rev. Dr. Samuel prayed and Rev. R. J. Brown of New York, made an extra fine communion address. This entire service was well conducted and the communicants were highly pleased and happy. Rev. Dr. T. J. King preached a fine sermon Sunday night to the delight of all present. Don't forget prayer services Wednesday night. Dr. J. C. Brown, of New York, will preach. Come out and hear him. (Supt. Prof. B. H. Peyton opened Fifth Street Baptist Sunday-school at 9:30 o'clock Sunday morning. Although the weather was inclement the attendance was fair.

I would give 20 crowns to know where I have seen him. A fine beer," he said aloud, holding up the second tankard. The vintner raised his. There was an unconscious grace in the moment. A covert glance at his hand as Carmichael in regard to one thing. He might be a vintner, but the hand was as soft and well kept as a woman's. Could a man with hands like these mean well toward Gretchen? Gretchen was both innocent and unworldly. To the right man she might be easy prey never to a man like Colonel von Waltenstein, whose power and high office were alike slobster to any girl of the peasantry. But a man in the glove of her own class, of her own world and people, here was a snare Gretchen might not be able to foresee. A tankard rapping a table nearby called Gretchen to her duties. "Gretchen is beautiful enough to be a queen, and yet she is merely a Hebe in a tavern," remarked Carmichael "Hebe? auspiciously" "Hebe was a cup bearer to the mythological gods in olden times," Car michael explained. He had set a trap, but the thiefier had not fallen into it "A fairy story" The vintner nodded He understood now Carmichael would lay another trap "What happened to her" "Oh," said Carmichael, "so spilled wine on a god one day, and they banished her" "It must have been a rare vintage" "I suppose you are familiar with all the valleys. Mosself" "Toe. That is a fine country" The old man in tatters sat erect in his chair "You have served!" "A little. If I could be an officer I should like the army." The vintner reached for his pipe, which lay on the table "Try this," urged Carmichael, offering his pouch "This will be good tobacco, I know." The vintner filled his pipe Carmichael followed this gift with many questions about wines and vintages, and hidden in these questions were a dozen clever traps. But the other waited over them unheasant, with a certainty of step which chirred the trapper By and by the vintner rose and bade his table companion a good night. He had not offered to buy anything. This frugality was purely of the thrifty peasant. But the vintner expressed many thanks on his way to the door he stopped and whispered into Gretchen ear. The press to the room was thimming. A carter smuggled past and sat down unconcernedly at the table occupied by the old man whose face Carmichael had not yet seen. A little later a butcher approved the same table and seated himself. It was then a dusty baker came along and repeated this procedure, and Carmichael a curiosity was enlightened. Unintentionally they were Socialists, and this was a little conceive, and the peculiar manner of their meeting, the silence and mystery were purely notional. Had Carmichael not fallen a dreaming over his pipe he would have seen the old man pass three strips of paper across the table. He would have seen the carter the butcher and the baker pocket these strips stolidly. He would have seen the mountainer wave his hand sharply and the trio rise and this perse Carmichael left the Black Engle nursing the sunken ember in his pipe Intermediately the mountaineer guild his score and started for the stairs which led to the bedrooms above. But he stopped at the bar. A very old man was having a pail filled with hot cabbage soup. It was the ancient clock mender across the way. The mountaineer was startled out of his habitual reserve. The clock mender had the aspect of a weary broken man. He shuffled noiselessly out. The mountaineer followed him cautiously. Once in his shop the clock mender poured the steaming soup into a bowl, broke bread in it and began his evening meal. The other, his face pressed against the dim pane stared and stared "Gott in himmel! It is he! he gnasped chokingly" Krumerweg was indeed a stroked way. It formed a dozen elbows and ragged half circles as it slunk off from the Adlergasse. It was half after it when Grechen and the vintner picked their way over cobbles pitted here and there with mudholes. They were arm in arm. "Only a little farther" said Grechen for the vintner had never before passed over this way. "Long as it is and crooked, heaven knows it is short enough." He encircled her with his arms and kissed her "I love you. I love you." he said. Her bosom swelled, her heart throbbed, and she breathed in cestasy the sweet chill air that rushed through the broken street. "After the vintage," she said, giving his arm a pressure. For this hand, some fellow was to be her husband when the vices were pruned and fresh end against the coming winter. "Aye, after the vintage." he school but there was tragedy in his heart as deep and profound as his love. "My grandmother—I call her that, for I haven't any grandmother—is old and eldern leaves the house. I promised that after work tonight I'd bring my man home and let her see how hand some he is. She is always saying that The By HAROLD MacGRATH Copyright, 1909, by the Bobba-Merrill Company we need a man about, and yet I can do a man's work as well as the next one. I love you, too Lee." She pulled his hand to her lips and quickly kissed it, frightened but unashamed "Gretchen, Gretchen" She stopped "What is it?" keenly "There was join in your voice." "The thought of how I love you hurts me. There is nothing else nothing, neither riches nor crowns nothing but you, Gretchen." They proceeded until they came to the end of their journey at No 40 in the Krummerweg. It was a house of hanging gates almost as old as the town itself. Fran Schwarz Gretchen's grand mother owned the house. It was all that harried her from poverty's wolves, and what with sunny taxes and repairs and tennails who paid in frequently. It was little enough Gretchen opened the door which was unlocked. There was no light in the hall. She pressed her lever in her arms, kissed him lightly and pushed him into the living room. Gretchen ran forward lighted two candles then kissed the old woman wafted in the one comfortable chair! "There I am grandmother." "And who is with you." "My man!" cried Gretchen gaily. "Bring him near me." Gretchen gathered up two goods and placed them on either side of grandmother and motioned to the door, her to sit down. "Where are you from? You are in a Bretherger, the old woman asked." "From the north grandmother." "Your name." "Leopold Dietrich, a vintner by trade." "Give me your hand." The vintner looked surprised for a moment. Gretchen approved. No he gave the old woman his left hand. The grandmother smoothed it out upon her own and bent her shrewd eyes. A frown he gan to gather on the vintner's brow and a sweat in his palm A "I see man's strang things here," said the palmist in a brooding tone. "What do you see?" asked Gretchen. "I see very little of vineyards I see riches. I see vast armies meeting against each other powder and firecreatation. I do not see you your man among those who trump wag guns on their shoulders. Woe! There is gold on your arms, you become great. But I do not understand." "War!" he murmured Gretchen a heart sank. "Shall I like?" asked the vintner. "There is nothing here save death in old age vintner." Her grunted hand seized his in a visc "Do you mean well by my girl?" "Grandmother" Gretchen remonstrated The vintner withdrew his hand slowly "Is this the hand of a liar and a cheat?" Is it the hand of a dishonest man?" "There is no dishonesty there but there are liens I do not understand It is like seeing people in a matter Pass instantly and disappear but I repeat, do you mean well by my girl?" "I believe you." The old woman form relaxed its tenseness. There was a sound outside. A carriage had stopped. Some one opened the door and began to climb the staircase "There is something strange going on up there" and Gretchen in a whisper "Three times a velled lady has called at night on a sick lodger; three times a man muffed up so one could not see his face." "Let us not question our 20 crowns rent, Gretchen." Interrupted the grandmother "So long as no one is disturbed, no long as the police are not brought to our door, it is not our of fair." The vintner picked up his hat, and Gretchen led him to the street. He hurried away, giving no glance at the closed carriage, the sleepy drive, the weary horse. Neither did he hoped the man dressed as a carter who GIRL when he saw the vintner, turned and followed. Finally when the vintner veared into the Adlergasse he stopped, his hands clinched, his teeth hard upon each other. He even leaned against the wall of a house, his face for the moment hidden in his arm. "Wretch that I am! Damnable wretch! Krumerweg. Krumerweg! Crooked way, indeed!" He flung down his arm passionately. "There will be a God up yonder," looking at the M "I DO NOT WISH ANY QUARREL, MY CAP TAIN" stars "He will see into my heart and know that it is not bad only young Oh, Gretchen" "Gretchen" "The carter stepped into a shadow and waited" Carmichael did not enjoy the opera that night. He had missed the directs, and the last was grewsome and the royal box was vacant. Outside he sat down on one of the benches near the fountains in the Platz He left the bench and strolled around the fountain his cage behind his back his chin in his collar "Just a moment my studious friend" he was saluted "Wallegstein" I didn't see you. Carmichael halted "I'm absent-minded," Carmichael admitted "Not always, my friend. Now I do not believe that it was absentminded peas which made you step in between me and that pretty goose girl the other night." "Ah. Carnival! I was all naughtiness "It was not I believe" "It was coolly prematureted" said Carnival! feeding his arms over his cune which he still held behind his back. But that happens to be an innocent girl, counsel. You're no Herod You really annoyed her" "I pretense They always begin that way I do not wish any quarrel, my captain. But that girl's face has fascinated me. I propose to see her ap often as I like" "I have no objection to offer. But I told grechen that if any one, no matter who offers her disrespect to report the matter to me at the con勺ate "Well in case she is what you consider insulted what will you do?" a challenge to his tones "Report the matter to the police" Wallenstein laughed "And if the girl finds no redress there" tranquilly "to the chancellor" The colonel laughed harshly and strode abruptly away Carmichael saw a carriage coming along. He recognized the white horse as it passed the lamps. He stood still for a space, undecided. Then he sped rapidly toward the side gates of the royal gardens. The vehicle stopped there. But this time no woman came out. Carmichael would have recognized that link form anywhere it was the chancellor. Well, what of it? Couldn't the chancellor go out in a common back if he wanted to? But who was the lady in the rell? As soon as the chancellor disappeared Carmichael halted the coachman and engaged him for a drive for 8 crowns. Carmichael sid, over to the forward seat and touched the jebu on the back "Where did you take the chancellor tonight?" he asked "Du liber Gott! Was that his excellency? He said he was the chief steward." "So he is, my friend. I was only feasting. Where did you take him?" "I took him to Krummerweg. He was there half an hour. No 40." "Where did you take the veller lady?" "That is better. They both told that they were giving charity went into No. 40. You won't for an extra crown, herr!" "No, I'll make it five. Turn it and leave me at the Grand hotel. On the return to the hotel the statistic omnibus had arrived with a solitary guest. "Your excellency," said the concerto rubbing his hands, "a compatriot of yours arrived this evening." "What name?" indifferently "He is Hans Grumbach of New York." "An adopted compatriot, it would seem. He'll probably be over to the consulate tomorrow to have his prizes looked into. Good night." So Hans Grumbach passed out of his mind; but, for all that, fortune and opportunity were about to knock on Nikita Neumann, once for example, was a German chemist, and already Zoe Hinz Gerhardt, was his colleague. HANS GRUMBACH was standing in the caribbean front of the Grand hotel, his back to the sun it was no clock. Hans was short, but strongly built—a mild, blue oval German, smooth faced, ruddy cheeked, white haired, with a brown button or a nose. Presently two police officers came along and went into the hotel. Grumbach turned with a sigh and followed them. Doubtless they had come to look over his passports. And this happened to be the case. The senior officer unfolded the prexus document. "It is not just used by your consul," said the officer. "I arrived late last night. I shall see him this morning," replied Grumbach. "You were not born in America." "Oh, no; I came from Bavaria when twenty." "Did you go to America with your parents?" "No: I was alone." "What is your business in America?" "I am a plumber, now retired." "You are forty?" said the officer, referring to the passports. "Yes." "As soon as these are approved by his excellency the American consul kindly have a porter bring them over to the bureau of police. It will be only a matter of form. I shall return them at once." Grumbach produced a Louis Napoleon, which was then, as now, acceptable that side of the Rhine. "Drink a drink, you and your comrade," he said. This the officer promised to do forth with and, followed by his assistant walked off briskly. Grumbach took off his derby and wiped the perspiration from his fore head. Coming up the thoroughfare with a dash of spirit and color was a small troop of horses. Grumbach watched them till they disappeared into the palace courtyard. He called to the waiter. "Who are they?" "The grand duke and some of his staff, berr." "The grand duke! Who was the gentleman in civilian clothes?" "That was his excellency Herr Car michael, the American consul." "Very good! And the young lady!" "Her serene highness the Princess Hildegarde." "Bring me a glass of beer; said Grumbach, sinking down at a table When the waiter returned he said. "Who does Herr Carmichael live?" S "The consulate in the Adriatic gassse. He him self lives here on the Grand hotel. So Herr (or michael) it here. That would be convenient Grumbach decided to wait for him. The American consul later come along with energetic stride Grumbach rose "NER SERENE HIGH-come along with NESS THE PRINCESS energetic stride HILLOBOARDE." Grumbach rose and caught Carmichael by the arm. "Your pardon, sir, but you are Mr Carmichael, the American consul?" "I am." "Will you kindly look over my papers?" Grumbach asked. "You are from the United States?" Then Carmichael remembered that this must be the compatriot who arrived the night before. "I shall be very glad to see you in the Adlergasse at half after 10. Any one will show you the way. I cannot transact my business in these dusty clothes. Good morning." Grumbach liked the consul's smile. More than that, he recognized instantly that this handsome young man was a gentleman. He had more than an hour to idle away, so he wandered through the park, admiring the freshness of the green, the well kept flower beds, the crap hedges and the clean graveled paths. Nothing had changed in Dreelberg save the Königstrasse, whose cobbles had been replaced by smooth blocks of wood. At times he sent swift but uncertain glances toward the palaces. He longed to peer through the great iron fence, but he smothered this desire. He would find out what he wanted to know when he met Carmichael at the consulate. Here the bell in the cathedral struck the tenth hour. Not a semitppe had this voice of bronze changed in all these years. It was good to be here in Dreelberg again. He had put out his first protest against the world in the Adlergasse forty years since. He came to a stand before the old tavern. Not even the sign had been painted anew. He noted the dingy consulate sign, then started up the dark and narrow stairway. The consulate door stood open. A clerk, native to Khrepateln, was writing at a table. At a desk by the window sat Carmichael deep in a volume of Dumas. "Mr Carmichael F" said Grumbach in English. The clerk indicated with his pen toward the individual by the window. Carmichael read on. Grumbach went boldly over and seated himself in the chair at the side of the desk. "I am Mr Grumbach. I spoke to you this morning about my passports. Will you kindly look them over? Carmichael took the paurs, frowning slightly. The consul went over the papers. "There is only one thing," answered Grumbach. "It will be a great favor." "What do you wish?" "An invitation to the military ball as the palace, after the maneuvers," quietly. "I am afraid, you are asking something impossible for me to obtain," cozily "Al Mr. Carmichael, it is very important that I should be there. I can give you no explanations. I wish to attend this ball. I do not care to meet the grand duke or any one one close. But me in the gallery where I shall not be noticed." "That might be done. But you have roped my curiosity. You have some purpose?" "A perfectly harmless one," said Grumbach, mapping his forehead. This movement brought Carmichael's eye to a scar on the back of his visitor's head. Grumbach acknowledged the stars by running his finger along the subject. "I came near passing in my checks the day I got that," he volunteered. "Everybody looks at it when I take off my hat. I've tried tonics, but the hair won't grow there." "Where did you get it?" "At Gettysburg." Carmichael was no longer indifferent. He gave his hand. "I've got a few scars myself. What regiment?" "The -th cavalry. New York." "What troop?" with growing excitement "C troop." "I was captain of B troop in the same regiment. Hurrah! Work's over for the day. Come along with me. Grumbach, and we'll talk it over down stairs in the Black Eagle. You're a godsend. C troop! Hanged if the world doesn't move things about oddly. I was in the hospital myself after Gettyburg—a ball in the leg. And I've rheumatism even now when a damp spell comes." So down to the tavern they went, and there they talked the battles over, undry tankards interpolating. It was "Do you remember this?" and "Do you recall that?" with diagrams drawn in beor on the oaken table. "But there's one thing, my boy" said Carmichael, "the odds were on our side or we'd be fighting yet." "That we would." "But you're from this side of the water?" "Yes; wont over when I was twenty-two. I'm from Bavarin." Grumbach circled the room. All the near tables wore vacant. The Black Eagle was generally a lonely place till late in the afternoon. Grumbach touched the scar tenderly. Could he trust this man? Could he trust any one in the world? The impulse came to trust Carmichael, and he did not disregard it. "I was born in this very street," he whispered. "Hers?" "Sb! Not so loud. Yes, in this very street. But if the police know I wouldn't be worth that" with a snap of the fingers. "But what does this all mean? Can I help you in any way?" "No; no one can help me." "But why come back?" "Who can say what a man will do?" Don't question me. Let be. I have said too much already." "But your name?" Grumbach laughed unmusically "Grumbach is as good as another Listen. When I left Dreiberg there was a reward of a thousand crowns for me dead or alive." Carmichael was plainly bewildered. "You were mad to return." "I know it. I couldn't help it. Oh, don't look like that! I never hurt anybody unless it was in battle"—nacely "Now, what has happened since I went away? I have dared to ask questions of no one?" Carmichael, strangely attracted and trustful of his questioner, gave him brief summery of events, principal among which was the amazing restoration of the Princess Hildegarde. To describe the Princess Hildegarde was not only an easy task but a pleasant one to Carmichael "So she is gentle and beautiful? Why not? Ach! You should have seen her mother. She was the most beautiful woman in all Germany, and she sang like one of those Italian nightingales. The king of Jugendheit wanted her, but she loved the grand duke. So the Princess Hildegarde has come back to her own? It is good!" "Well," said Carmichael, backoning to the waitress and paying the score, "If any trouble arises for me. You don't look like a man who has done anything very bad." He offered his hand again. Grumbach pressed it firmly, and there was a moisture in his eyes. Grumbach declined Carmichael's invitation to lunch and immediately sought his own room. Once there he closed the shuters and opened his battered trunk. From the false bottom he took out a small bundle. Mad fool that he had been! How many times had he gazed at these trinkets in these sixteen or more years! How many times had the talong of remorse geshed his heart! MAD FOOL THAT JE BAD BEK! HAD BEEN: Two little yellow shoes, like two butterflies; a little cloak trimmed withermine, a golden pocket shaped like a heart! Grumbach was very fond of music. There was nothing at the opera, so he decided to spend the earlier part of the evening in the public gardens. Subsequently he found himself standing beside a young vintner and his peasant sweetheart. Their hands secretly met and locked behind their books. Grumbach sighed. He would always go his way alone. The girl turned her head. She loomed the vintner's hand. "Do not mind me, girl!" said Grumbach, his face broadening. The girl langued easily and without confusion. Her companion, however, flushed under his tan, and a scowl ran over his forehead. The band was playing Los Hugue- pota." and the girl hummed the alm. "A hand was put upon Grumbach's shoulder authoritatively. The police officer who had examined his passports that morning stood at Grumbach's elbow. "Herr Grumbach," he said quietly, "his excellency the chancellor has directed me to bring you at once to the palace." "To the palace?" Grumbach's face was expressive of great astonishment. "My passports were wrong in some respect?" "Oh, no, herr. They were correct." Grumbach roused his mind energetically. "But whatever can the chancellor want of me?" "That is not my business. I was simply sent to find you. His excellency is always interested in German America." "Shall we go at once?" asked Grumbach. "I never expected to enter the palace of the Grand Duke of lhrenstein." Grumbach added. "It will be something to tell of when I go back to America." The palace is lighted up. "was Grumbach's comment as the two passed the sentry outside the gates." "A one thing to be a diplomat." "I myself prefer lighting in the open. Diplomats? Their very precious hidees are never anywhere near the wars they bring about. No, no—this way. We go in at the alba." "Forlorn! have to guide me. Yes, these diplomats. Mon like you and me do all the work. I was in the civil war in America." "That was a great fight," remarked the officer. "I should like to have been there." "Four years—pretty long. Do you know Herr Carmichael?" "The American consul? Oh, yes." "He and I fought in the same regiment." "Then you saw some pretty battles." Grumbach took off his hat. "See that?" "Gott! That must have been an ugly one." The somber black of Carmichael's evening dress stood out conspicuously among the blue and green and red uniforms at the grand duke's dinner Ettiquette compelled him to wear silk stockings, but that was the single concession on his part. He wore no orders. The duke sat at the head of the table and her serene highness at the foot. And it was by the force of his brilliant wit that the princess did not hold in perpetuity the court at her end of the table. For a German princess of that time she was highly accomplished. She was ardent, whistful, with a flashing mentality which rounded out and perfected her physical loveliness. Above and beyond all this she I "YOU WILL BE A GREAT QUEEN," had suffered she had felt the palligis of poverty, the smart of unrecognized merit She had been one of the people, and her sympathies would always be with them, for she knew what those about her only vaguely knew, the patience, the unmurmuring bravery, of the poor. "Gentlemen" said the duke, rising and holding up his glass, "this night I give you a toast which I believe will be agreeable to all of you, especially to his excellency Baron von Steinbock of Jugendheit What is past is past A new regime begins this night." He paused All eyes were focused upon him in wonder Only Baron von Steinbock displayed no more than ordinary interest "I give you," resumed the duke, "her serene highness and his majesty Frederick of Jugendheit" The princess grew delicately pale on the men and women sprang to their feet. Every hand swept toward her holding a glass. She had surrendered that morning—not because she wished to be a queen, not because she cared to bring about an alliance between the two countries. No; it was because she was afraid and had burned the bridge behind her. The tan thinned on Carmichael's face, but his hand was steady. She sat still in her chair, her lids drooped but a proud lift to her chin. Beautiful to him beyond all dreams of beauty. God send another war and lot him die in the heart of it, fighting! In the ballroom the princess was surrounded. Everybody flattered her, congratulated her and complimented her. Carmichael was among the last to approach her. By this time he had his voice and nerves under control. "I thought you had forgotten me," she said. They walked to the conservatory. "Forget your highness!" He bowed over her hand and brushed it with his lips, for she was almost royal now. "Your highness will be happy. It is written. You will be a great queen." "Who knows?" dreamily. "When I recall what I have gone through all this seems like an enchantment out of a fairy book and that I grant soon wake up in my garden, in Dreeden." "If only it might be an enchantment, he thought—if only he might and her, as the grim old chancellor had found boy, in a garret: "What? Dreaming again. He吠sigged. "Why did you do that?" she asked quickly. "It was a momentary dream I had, and the thought of it utter impossibility caused me to shrue." "This dream—was there not a woman in it?" "Oh, no; there was only an angel." "You interest me; you always interest me. You have seen no many wonderful things. And now it is angela." "Only one, your lightness." This was daring. "But perhaps I am putting my foot—where angels fear to tread," which was still more daring. "Angels ought not to be afraid of anything." She laughed. There was a pain and a joy in the sound of it. She read his heart as one might read a written line. "Dreams are always unfinished things," he said, getting back on safer ground. "What is she like, this angel?" forcing him upon dangerous ground again willfully. "I dare not tell you." His eyes sought hofs uninchingly. The chancellor and Baron von Stilnbock came up. "Your highness," began the benign voice of the chancellor, "the baron desires, in the name of his august master, to open the ball with you. Behold my fairy wand," gaily. "This night I have made you a quoon." "Can you make me happy also?" said she so low that only the chancellor heard her. "I shall try Ah. Herr Captain," with a friendly jork of his head toward Carmichael. "will you do me the honor to join me in my cabinet a quarter of an hour hence?" "I shall be there, your excellency" Carmichael" was uneasy. He was not certain how much the chancellor had heard. CHAPTER V THE KING'S LETTER CARMICHAEL at once sought the chancellor's cabinet. To his surprise the room was al- ready tenanted. Grumbach and a police officer. "Your excellency knows as much as I do," said the officer. Occasionally Grumbach wiped his forehead. Then the chancellor came in. He bowed cordially and drew chairs about his desk. He placed Grumbach in the full glare of the inp. Herr Grumbach said the chancellor in a mild tone. "I should like to see your papers." "Send Brouner, the head gardener at once." The chancellor shot a piercing glan at Grumbach Brouner entered. He was thin and partly bald. "Brouner, her highness will need many flowers tomorrow. See to it that they are cut in the morning." "It shall be done, excellency." The chancellor turned to the passports "There is only one question. Herr Grumbach. It says here that you were a native of Bavaria before going to America. How long ago did you leave Bavaria?" "A good many years your excellentcy" "You have of course retained your Bavarian passport." Grumbach brought forth a bulky wallet "Here it is, your excellency" The chancellor went over it carefully "Herr Captain, do you know this companion?" "We fought side by side in the American war. I saw no irregularity in his papers." "Then he is no stranger to you?" "I do not say that. We were, how ever, in the same cavalry, only in different troops. Grumbach, you have your honorable discharge with you?" Grumbach went into his wallet still again. This document the chancellor read with an interest foreign to the affair under his hand. Presently he laughed softly. "I am sorry Herr Grumbach. All this unnecessary trouble simply be cause of the word Bavaria. How long will you be making your visit?" "Only a few days. Then I shall proceed to Bavaria." "Your excellency has no further order?" said the head gardener patiently. "Good heaven. Breunner I had for gotten all about you." There is nothing more. Herr Captain, you will return with me to the ballroom?" Carmichael and Grumbach crossed the Platz leisurely. "How did you come by that Bavarian passport?" asked Carmichael abruptly. "It is a forgery - my friend, but his excellency will never find that out." "You have me all at sea. Why did he bring in the head gardener and leave him standing there all that while?" "He had a sound purpose, but it fell The head gardener did not recognize me." "Do you know him?" "Yes. He is my elder brother." The ambassador from Jugendbelt Baron von Steinbock, was not popular in Dreiberg, at least not among the people who still held to the grand duke's idea that the kingdom had been behind the abduction of the Princess Hildegarde. Never a hot headed Dreiberg passed his house without a desire to loot it, to scale the piled fence and batter in the doors and windows. The king of Jugendstil was to marry her serene highness. The menials in and about the embassy felt the new importance of their positions. So then imagine the indignation of the major-domo when, summoned at dusk one evening to the carriage gates three, four days after the portentious news had issued from the palace, he found DA only a ragged and grimy carter who demanded peremptorily to be admitted and taken to his excellency at once. "Go away!" The majordomo spun on his heels contemptuously. "I will skin you alive," vowed the carter, striking the iron with the butt of his whip. "If you do not open these gates immediately Open" "If you do not stop hammering on those bars I shall send for the police." "Imbecile, set your eye on that and admit me without more ado" The majordomo was thunderstruck. He threw back the bolts, and the carter pushed his way in. That ring on the carter's finger. "Take me to the baron" Vastly subdued, the majordomo proceeded the curter into the office of the embassy and went in search of the baron, who was in his study. "Your excellency, there is a man in the office who desires to see you quickly A carter" The ambassador jumped to his feet "One moment, your excellency. He wore a ring on his finger, and I could not refuse him." The majordomo whispered two words. The am basssador rushed from the study. It was dark in the embassy of face. Quickly the ambassador light ed some candies. Gas would be too bright for such a meeting. I "Well, your excellency?" said a voice from the leather lounge "Who are you?" "For this was not the voice the baron expected to hear "My name at present does not matter. The news I bring is far more important. His majesty emphatically declines any alliance with the house of Ehrenstein." "Damnation!" swore the ambassador "The exact word used by the prince. Now then, what's to be done?" "This means war." "War! It looks as if you and I baron, shall not accompany the king of Prussia into Alsace-Lorraine." --- "But what possessed the prince to blunder like this?" "The prince really is not to blame Our king, baron, is a young colt A few months ago he gave his royal uncle carte blanche to seek a wife for him Politics demanded an alliance between Jugendheit and Ehrenstein There have been too many years of useless antagonism On the head of this holt from heaven comes the declaration of his majesty that he will marry any other princess on the continent." --- "They will pull this place down." "Let them. We have 10,000 more troops than Ehrenstein." "You young men are a pack of fools." "Softly, baron." "Whore is the king?" The carter familiar. "He is hunting, they say, with the crown prince of Bavaria." "But you, why have you come dressed like this?" "That is a little secret." "But what's to be done?" "Tell lies. They will suspend the catastrophe till we are ready to meet it. The marriage is not to take place till spring. That will give us plenty of time. After the coronation his majesty may be brought to reason. This marriage must not fall through now. The grand duke will not care to become the laughingstock of Europe. The prince's advice is for you to go about your affairs as usual. Only one man must be taken into your confidence, and that man is Herbeck. If any one can straighten out his end of the tangle it is be." "Where is the prince?" "Wherever he is he is working for the best interests of the state." "There is the Bavarian princess," remarked the ambassador mutually. "He's A good thought!" But the king is romantic. She is older than be and tigly." "You are not telling me everything intuitively. "I know it. I am telling you all that it is present necessary." "My Illustrious and Industrial Uncle-I regret exceedingly that at this late day I should cause you political embarrassment, but when I gave my consent to the expulsion of any of the various princesses at liberty surely it was understood that them would refuse to marry the daughter of the man who privately strove to cover my father will contumely, who dared impute to him a crime that was any man's but my father's. I realize that certain policies called for this stroke on your part, but it cannot be. My dear uncle, you have dug a fine and hope you will find a way out of it. Prince Wilhildaidge. This is final. It can be arranged without any, discredit to the duke or to yourself. Let it be said that her serene bighness has thrown me over I can't go to war about it. "FREDERICK. "Observe My Illustrious and industrial uncle!" laughed the carter without mirth. "Our king, you will sea, has a graceful style." He gained his foot. He was young, pleasant of face, but a thorough soldier. "You are 'Leuttenant von Radenstein' cried the ambassador. 'I recognize you now.'" "Thanks, your excellency." "You are in the royal household, the regent's invisible arm. I have heard a good deal about you. I know your father well." "Again, thanks. Now, the regent has heard certain rumors regarding an American named Carmichael, a consul He is often seen with her highness. Rather an extraordinary privilege." "Rest your mind there Leuttenant. This Carmichael is harmless. He can be eliminated at any time." "This is reassuring. You will see the chancellor tonight and show him this letter." "One word more, and then I'm off. If a butcher or a baker or even a mountainer pulls the bell cord and shows this ring admit him without fail. He will have vital news." For half an hour the ambassador remained staring at the candlesticks. He wanted no dinner. He rang for his hat and coat, and twenty minutes later he was in the chancellor's cabinet. "You seem out of health, baron," was the chancellor's greeting. "I am indeed that, count. I received a letter today from the prince regent. It was sent to him by his majesty, who is hunting in Bavaria. Read it, count, but I pray to you to do nothing hastily." The chancellor did not open the letter, he merely balanced it. His acustomed palor assumed a grayish tinge. "No his majesty declines?" he said evenly. "You have already heard?" cried the amazed ambassador "Nothing. I surmise. The hour your appearance, the letter—to what else could they point? I was afraid all along. Ah, if his majesty could but see her' Is she not worthy of a crown? "Herbeck, nothing would please me better than to see this marriage consummated." "I believe you. We two peoples should be friendly. It has taken me months to bring this matter round. The duke rebelled, her highness accorned the hand of Frederick. Still, if you saw all the evidence in the case you would not blame the duke for his attitude." "But those documents are rank for geries." "So they may be, but that has not been proved. What remedy do you suggest?" asked the chancellor "I suggest that the duke must not know" "Agreed Go on" "You will put the matter before her highness" "That will be difficult" "Let her repudiate the negotiations. Let her say that she has changed her mind. His majority is quite willing that the humiliation be his" "That is generous. But suppose she has set her heart on the crown of Judgendheit What then" "In that event the affair is no longer in our hands, but to God's." "Is there no way of changing the king's mind" "Read the letter count" said the ambassador Herbek read the letter. It was the work of a rather irresponsible boy. "May I take this to her highness" asked the chancellor "I promise its contents will not go beyond her eye" "I will take the risk" Herbek consulted his watch. It was half after 6. Her highness did not dine till 8. "I shall go to her highness immediately, baron. I shall return the letter by messenger, and he will tell you the result of the interview" "God be with you," said the ambassador, preparing to take his leave, "for all women are contrary." After the baron was gone the chancellor paced the room with hailing step. Then toward the wrath of his ambition the waved a hand as if to explain how futile are the schemes of men. He proceeded to the apartments of her highness. Would she toss aside this crown or would she fight for it? He found her alone He saluted her hand respectfully "I have here a letter. I have given my "SO HIS MAJESTY DECLARED!" HER SAID EVENLY. word that its contents shall not be repeated to the duke, your father. If I let you read it will you agree to that? "And who has written this letter? noncommittially "Ils majesty the king of Jugend-helt," allowy "A letter from the king!" she cried, curious. "Should it not be brought to me on a golden salver?" "It is probable that I am bringing it to you at the end—of a bayonet," solemnly. "If the duke learns it contents the inevitable result will be war." A silence fell upon them. "He declines the honor of my hand—is that not it?" she finally said. The chancellor annoted. "Ah!" with a note of pride in her voice and a flash in her eyes. "And if?" "You will tell the duke that you have changed your mind," gravely. "And if I refuse to change my The Silver Horde By REX BEACH Author of "The Spoilers" and "The Barrier" P A Stirring Story of the Great Northwest Mr. Beach has written his most powerful novel in "The Silver Horde."

SEARCH FOR DEAD IN FOREST FIRES Scores of Bodies Have Been Found in Ashes. 1000 FIGHTERS ARE MISSING Flames Rage Unchecked In Five States—Women Save a Town—Many Villages Still Threatened Nearly the whole panhandle of Idaho timbered mountain country is on fire and it is possible that 400 per soons may have perished United States Forest Supervisor W. F Welgic has not heard from 300 of his men who were in the burning woods, and he fears they may have perished. He sent Ranger A B Holcomb to open up the old Mullan road leading to the Bullion mine, where eight bodies are buried. The known dead now number 80. Three towns are in ashes. They are Taft, Deborgia and Henderson. The old part of St. Regis has been destroyed, and half of Wallace Idaho, where forty-five lost their lives, lies in ruins. A crowd was sent out to the big fork of the Cour d'Alene, where twelve bodies are buried under the ruins. This will necessitate the clearing of thirty miles of road to Wallace. Besides the twelve dead at Big Fork, three men suffered broken legs and three others were totally blinded. Heavy clouds are hanging over the district and rain is expected Six hundred fire fighters who left Thompson Falls, in Montana, four days ago, are reported lost, and Forest Survvisor Bushnell, of the Cabinet reserve, who is at Thompson, fears all may have perished. The fires have swept past Wallace. The towns of Coeur d'Alene district have passed the first stage of wild, unreasoning panic and have settled down with more or less composure to wait for the last of dead. Fort) men are dead north of Murray idaho along independence creek where the fires were the fiercest. The list is constantly growing as the forest rangers with red eyes and blackened faces penetrate the rails low choked with fallen logs and bring word of fire fighting crews out of camps wiped out rachets and home steaders caught in the path of the flames and mountain towns left in gashes. Hardly a bridge in the whole country around Wallace is left and the Oregon Railroad & Navigation Northern Pacific and Chicago Milwaukee & Puget Sound lines are crippled to some extent. The burned district in Montana generally speaking extends east to Missoula north to the headwaters of the St Joseph and in other directions nobody knows how far. From the top of the hills everything as far as the eye can see is swpt bare. It is said that insurance on the buildings destroyed in Wallace will total $100,000. Losses are still estimated about $100,000. That the city Wash is still on the map is due solely to the heroism of the women of the town who while the male population was fighting the advance of the conflagration guard their homes and business houses extinguishing flames wherever they appeared. The town is out of danger but the conditions in the surrounding regions are growing worse. The wind has again to rise in wake and the adjacent mountains are a something mass of flames.

The American river district is a gigantic furnace for miles. A number of outlying settlements, from which the inhabitants have fled, are certain of destruction. Forest Ranger Porter writes Assistant Ranger Brown, at Grapeville, as follows. "Situation desperate. Whole country ablaze. Must have help to save property. The fire in the Clearwater reserve, according to advises, is absolutely beyond control and all hopes of subduing the flames until it rains have been abandoned. Strangled to Death Playing on Swing.

Proctor. (The writer of the following verses is a British American Negro who does janitor work for the Commander and glassworker. Mr Proctor speaks several languages fluently and has acquired an education far above the average of his race. He has written a number of poems, one of which was published in these columns some time ago. His lines have merit and his persistent wooing of the muse may yet land him in the place held by the late Paul Lawrence Dunbar, the sweet singer of the African race.—Editor ) I have wandered late and early to the spot I love so dearly. the spot I love so dearly. Whero the scent of honeysuckle mingles with the tender rose. There the incense sweet and holy sheathing me. I dreaming only. While a subtle spell fast held me as the mist above me posed sapphire fragrance as of clover all over the second to hover. A secret power charmed me and my senses idly roamed. Then a magic something showered and a halo 'round the flowered. While I courteed fancy notions of my little love Salome ```markdown ``` I have seen the bluebird swingsing, heard the lark in meadow singing. And I've drank the flute-like music of the sacred, peaceful dove. I have stalked 'mid violets blooming, weaving garlands, flowers throw *ing. And I've plucked the primrose golden tossed to the breeze above. But I need pleasure the captures, pleases, captivates and captures. Penetrating souls remotest secret sanctum all alone. And emits a haze of azure, so se- ductive in a measure. Haunts the heart that's so deserving then I'm thinking of Salome I have faced from climates warmer, white and dunky wily charmers. And I've watched their flirting eye lash and their actions blite or shy But withal their fetching manner, did not charm me nor enamor I saw nothing in their graces that was pleasing to my eye. But the rose to me so sweetly cooling, loving so discreetly. and the bound of love is lasting between me and sweet Salome.

DYING IN ASYLUM End Near For Major Rathbone, Once Lincoln's Alco Major Henry Reed Rathbone who was an officer to President Lincoln and received a stab wound in attempting to save the life of his chief on the night of the assassination is near death in the criminal ward of the inane assult at Hildesheim, near Hanover Germany of which he has long been an inmate. Many years ago while occupying the post of American consul here Major Rathbone murdered his wife. He was convicted but declared to be in insane, and was committed to the institution where he has since remained and lived in luxury. For a long time he made periodical attempts to secure his release but finally gave up hope of securing his freedom, and is awaiting the end with some tranquility. The physicians of the asylum state that the major is falling rapidly and cannot survive long. LET IT BE A FIGHT, SAYS ROOSEVELT Will Give the Old Guard "All They 'Want' at the State Convention. Herkimer, N. Y., August 24.—If William Barnes, Jr. issued his Tuesday day night statement on the Tattf Sherman political situation, defying Col. Roosevelt, with a view to arousing Roosevelt he succeeded. The Colonel read the statement today and laughed and scowled while he was doing it. He gave out a statement himself in which he said: "They will have all the fight they want I am only going to that convention because I feel that the public interest—the interest Of the people of the State of New York—demands that the Republican party be given a chance to stand squarely and uncompromisingly for clean, decent honest politics. "I shall go to that convention to make my speech exactly as I had originally planned it, and while I hope there will be enough good sense to prevent any one opposing the principles for which I stand, yet if they do oppose them, it is their own affair. As far as I am concerned the issue shall be absolutely clean cut." The Colonel will go to the Saratoga convention next month beyond a shadow of a doubt. He cannot sidestep that now. He has announced his position so clearly that there can be no question of the attitude he will assume and his attack on Mr. Sherman through Senator Davenport yearly makes it imperative for him to fight the Vice-President. From what the Colonel said at the house of Douglas Robinson this evening the chances are strong that he will at tempt to unseat Mr Sherman from the position he held with Mr Roosevelt remarked, however, that he is not certain just what course of action he will pursue further than to slam the machine and work like a Trojan for a progressive platform and a progressive candidate. The Colonel realizes that Barnes and the others might knife the ticket at the polls in case he storms the convention at Saratoga. He knows as well as anybody that the Republics have a slim chance to win unless they pull together, and that they are not going to do that without a miracle coming to pass. Col Roosevelt has done everything he could in the last two days to repudiate Sherman. Senator Davenport and ex Assemblyman Merwin T Hart who made a speech on last Saturday declaring that the Vice-President had suppressed a telegram from President Taft, motored out of the Robinson estate (onight and talked with the president) this afternoon Mr Roosevelt met the newspaper men. They handed him copies of all the New York morning papers so that he might read what they had to say about Barnes's attack on him. He did not step a word. He murmured in audible bits as he went along, but he did not explode. "Barnes says there'll be a fight in the convention," the Colonel was informed "Well, then they will have all the fight they want." the Colonel shot back Then he gave the reporters his statement on the matter Mr. Roosevelt had no qualifying remarks to add He has told his friends fight along that he did not want to start a fight, but now that Shorman Barnes and Woodruff have struck the first blow there is only one thing left for Theodore Roosevelt to do and that is fight back The colonel has turned his visit to Mr. Barnes home town in something more important than a more family call and plenic party with the grand gars He was yesterday how the farmers feel toward the machine That is the farmers who came to hear him talk His conferences with Davenport and Hart served to stir him up and to cause him to send them out to do a bit of shouting They were only too willing Mr Roosevelt is not going to Saratoga confident by a long shot that he will win, but he it be satisfied if he has the opportunity to wallop the Old Guard it is doubled by those who understand Mr Roosevelt is present attitude if President Taft is repudiation of Sherman will do a great deal toward healing the breach between Col Roosevelt and the Administration That letter did not alter the Colonel's line of conduct. He had planned everything beforehand It may force Mr Roosevelt, however, to a declaration of his position at though he has said it should be unverified by September 11, the day he returns from the West. Shortly after breakfast this morning Col Rosenfeld put on his riding logs mounted a horse and galloped down into the Mohawk Valley Doug Robinson Theodore Douglas Robinson Munroe Robinson Mrs Robinson and Mrs Rosenfeld went with him The Colonel began to pay visits as soon as he reached the town of Warren and of course he got a glad hand all along the line Farmer Foy made a tenstrike with the Colonel. I’ve voted for you I don’t know how many times I said Farmer Fox, and gutt! I’ll vote for you again. Naturally the Colonel didn’t know what the old man referred to by again but he was so teased that he did not argue. Allogether the Colonel rode about fifteen miles. Several visitors came to pay their requests this afternoon. Salmurat and Mrs W S Cowles, motorized over from Richfield Springs and motorized back again Senator Davenport and ex Asemblyman Hart brought Mr Howland and Ernest Abbott with them Late in the afternoon Mr Roosevelt received an invitation to address the Syracuse county fair on September 11. He met the farmers and accepted. He just dotes on talking to the farmers. He may interject politics then because the situation will be coming to a head. Late tonight the Colonel went to Utica and boarded his private car. The train pulled out after midnight for Buffalo, where the party is to take breakfast in the morning. Tomorrow will he spent on the car, with possible stops or short duration. The reporters who have been after Vice President Sherman in the hope of getting him to talk have thrown up the job Mr. Sherman stuck around the house all day When he was seen he said he had nothing to say. The Colonel enjoyed Bearing of the attempt to break Mr. Sherman's silence. Watertown, N. Y., August 24. THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA. Unless Vice-President James S. Sherman changes his mind he will never be a candidate again for a political office. This construction was put upon this construction which he made here yesterday. Vice-President Sherman repeatedly refused to say anything on politics to the reporters questioning him. But it was learned today that he did say to some of the incorporators of the Northern New York Trust Company in which he is a heavy stock holder that when he retired from the office which he now holds he would quit politics for good. He said emphatically that his statement was no joke and that he meant exactly what he said to act and speak as they pleased. This is a list of the members of the State committee and the office they hold. Dist. Member. Toition. 1- John J. Bartlett, none 2- John H. Campbell, none 3- Lewis M.

Woodruff, chairman of the Republican State committee, at headquarters today, said yesterday and be admitted that he was speaking for the leaders of the regular organization, that any attempt to force a direct primary plank into the platform at the Saratoga convention and that any effort to name some one other than Vice President Sherman as the temporary chairman of the concession would be fought to the last ditch by himself and his associates at the head of the State machine. "I am ready to quit as a county leader," said Mr. Barnes. "If we are beaten and if my retention of the job of Surveyor of the Port of Albany rests upon my supporting the direct primary scheme then I will be willing to give up the job without my resignation being asked for." Mr Barnes thinks the primaries will show that the majority of the voters of the State are not in favor of direct primaries Mr Barnes said further that as it seemed apparent from the statement made by Colonel Roosevelt at Horkerlim that the progressivees under the lead of Mr Roosevelt were determined to insist upon a direct nomination plank the regulars were willing to accept the issue and to fight it out. "Since neither the opponents of direct nominations nor those who are supporting the" principle agent in clined to give way it looks as if we will have to have a fight in the convention" Mr Barnes remarked. Mr Barnes would add nothing yesterday to the statement he gave out at headquarters on Tuesday night, although it was pointed out to him that that statement did not answer in any way the charges made by President Taft that he had never approved of the proposal to name Vice President Sherman as the temporary chairman of the convention and that the Woodruff-Barnes-Sherman group had placed him in a false light by circulating the impression that the plan to seize the Sherman and Mr. Roosevelt governially agreeable to him Mr. Barnes explained that if there was any official comment to be made on the Taft letter it would have to come from Chairman Woodruff when he arrives in town today. But while that was all that Mr Barnes would say for publication it is known that he and the others of the old guard think the outlook for them is extremely dark. Mr. Barnes has already suggested to some of his friends the advisability of bringing about some compromise. The suggestion is the election of Mr Sherman as temporary chairman and Mr Roosevelt as the permanent chairman. This proposition has not yet been submitted to Chairman Griscom of the Republican county committee but if it should be suggested to him it he should be rejected. The temporary chairman should have all the committees and it is only natural to expect that in making up the committee on regulations Mr Sherman would manage a majority which could be depended upon to report in favorably on the question of direct nominations. Reports were heard yesterday that some of the members of the State committee who voted for the selection of Mr. Roosevelt and who were now confident that the progressives could command a majority of the votes in the committee intended to urge that a special meeting of the committee be called to notify the selection of Mr. Sherman Mr. Griscom will take no step toward bringing about a reconsideration of the vote he has decided to leave the matter to the convention so far as he is concerned. The Roosevelt forces in the organization have already begun work to elect delegates at the coming primaries who can be relied upon to oppose the machine and to think that with the possible exception of Albany county they can divide the delegations of all the upState counties whose leaders took part to the Sherman intrigue. It was reported yesterday that Mr Barnes who so far has been the only spokesman of his faction was against the naming of Mr Sherman at the conference held at Sherry's on the night before the meeting of the State committee. He told those with whom he was conferring that it would be had politics to name Mr Sherman for the reason that such a step would have the appearance of dragging President Taft into the situation and he suggested Speaker Wadsworth for temporary chairman. The suggestion was turned down even Mr Wadsworth himself counselling that it should not be heeded and that the scheme to put Mr Sherman's name in the motion should be carried through. The only reply Chairman Grisfee Would make yesterday to the statement issued by Mr Barnes was I have read Mr Barnes a statement and see nothing in it but clear creation of the issue before the State and country. There is nothing in it for me to answer. In the gossip heard yesterday on the situation no secret was made of the fact that several of the members of the State committee who hold Federal offices are fearful that the outcome of it all will be that some of them may lose their jobs. According to a statement made yesterday by the State Committee, Teft in the last two weeks the President has said that he would hold no club, over the holders of Federal offices, and that they would be free to act and speak as they pleased. This is a list of the members of the State committee and the offices they hold. Member. Position. 1—John J. Bartlett, none! 2—John H. Campbell, gone 3—Lewis C.

New York, August 25 — The conference at Sherry's on the night before the Republican State committee meeting in which Woodore Roosevelt was voted down and Vice-President Sherman chosen temporary chairman of the coming Republican convention, assumed still another complexion to night Timothy L. Woodruff. State chairman in a statement given out from Republican State headquarters, put the responsibility for the action of the committee squarrel up to Lloyd C. Griscom, president of the Republican county committee, and furnished that he had even planned of any plan to remove the name of the committee to the committee until Mr. Griscom made the actual nomination. Mr Woodruff arrived here today from Kampklikhare his summer place in the Adirondacks. He has received a copy of President Taft's recent letter to Mr. Griscom. The President sent me a copy explained Mr. Woodruff. Did the President add any per- sonal comment to you?" was asked. Now boys "married the State chairman you're going too far WOODRUFF EXPLAINS M. Wendling's state on tonight is to join as follows: Nothing that has transpired since the meeting of the Republican State committee nor anything that has been said since then should mislead anyone as to the condition of the situation which then existed. In accordance with the president established two years ago in the selection of Senator Root as temporary cogenerator of the State convention I and some of those who have been associated with me in the management of the Republican Party through the two last political campaigns met the night before the meeting of the State committee and after the consideration of all matters, decided by the committee the name of the President Sherman as temporary chairman a selection which we had every reason to believe would be highly satisfactory to the Republican of the State. Much to my surprise and entirely without warning Mr. Griscom, who sat in the committee as a proxy and who had been in the State committee rooms for nearly an hour before the meeting without asking a word to me about it moved to sub-situate the name of Mr. Roosevelt for that of Mr. Sherman with full knowledge which every one had had all the morning that a majority of the committee were committed to Vice-President Sherman's selection. What Mr. Griscom's motive was in placing Mr. Roosevelt in the position of being defeated I could not then comprehend, nor in it important to discuss it now. President Taft was in no way involved in this matter, as the members of the State committee acted outright within their authority in selecting a temporary chairman without, as far as I know a single one of them consulting with him about it, but, now of the apprehension of Mr Roosevelt, by the action of Mr Griscom, I felt called upon, as chairman of the committee to send the following letter to the ox-President August 17, 1910 "My Dear Colonel Roosevelt,—I cannot be possible that it is necessary for me to tell you that the action of the State Committee yesterday, in which I participated, was in do men intended as an act of hostility toward ```markdown ``` you or one of reflection upon you CAME AS A SURPRISE "I saw Ward and Barnes after their talk with you and they told me what you and they had said about this whole matter and I hope you knew despite some things to the contrary which the newspapers contained this morning that they told you the exact facts. Not one of us supposed that your name would be presented without your notifying Ward the national committeeman or me the chairman of the State Committee that you wished it done and I never was so much surprised in my life as when Grisom made the motion which he did. Not a word had been made that infuriated the meeting by anybody that infuriated the meeting was to be taken and I understand that neither Grisom nor any one else told Ward or Barnes or any of the other men of the committee that this was their purpose. Believing that you must appreciate the position in which under these circumstances we suddenly found ourselves after having agreed upon the selection of Sherman in conformity with the precedent established by the selection of Senator Root two years ago as temporary chairman I beg to remain with best wishes. Yours respectfully "TIMOTHY L. WOODRIFE" Chairman Woodriff urged the co- operation of all Republicans for party success and he referred to the dire- t primary plan as the only party principle of division in the State of which he said. "The spirit that is behind this agita- tion for direct primary nominations is far more dangerous than anything else that the proposition itself em- body. "I am glad to know that Mr Roose- volt intends to go to the Saratoga convention he continued," and present his ideas on this and other subjects. The importance of this convention will thereby be greatly enhanced and the superiority of the convention system to the direct nomi- nation method demonstrated. PLANS TO "BURY" HIM Old Guard Will Force Nomination for Governor on Roosevelt New York, August 25. Plans for the undoing of Colonel Roosevelt who wants to be temporary chairman of the Republican State convention at Saratoga on September 27. In place of Vice President James S. Sherman who was selected for that office by the State committee on August 16 were formulated by Timothy L. Woodruff chairman of the committee William Barnes Jr. of Albany and other leaders of the Old Guard at a conference at Republican State headquarters today. There was every indication when the conference was over that Colonel Roosevelt will not be disappointed in his hope that there will be plenty of fighting Mr Woodruff returned to the city as the result of the publication of the letter which President Taft sent last Monday to Lloyd C. Grissom chairman of the County Committee in which the President charged Ace President Sherman with duplies in obtaining the place of temporary chairman. The letter Mr Woodruff indicated yesterday came as the big surprise of his life and he issued a statement explaining the part he had taken in the transaction of August 16. According to the State chairman the substituting of Colonel Rosewolf a name in place of Mr Sherman's by Mr Grissom at that meeting came as a distinct surprise to him and controlled without warning. The name of Mr Sherman he said had been agreed upon at the conference the night before the meeting and he did not insist it proper that president not be substituted for another candidate substituted Mr Woodruff puts the responsibility for the action of the committee squarely up to Mr Grissom. The state chairman makes public a copy of a letter he sent to Colonel Rosewolf the day after the meeting of the committee in which he explained the situation to Colonel Rosewolf and he indicated that the colonel might properly have given the letter out himself. Mr Woodruff make a the point that Colonel Roosevelt should have not either himself or National com- mitteeman William L. Ward and Mr Griscom that he wanted the of- her. HOPE FOR HARMONY Mr. Woodruff expresses the hope that harmon will prevail at the convention and states that the only difficulty of opion should be centring along the lines of whether or not the platform shall declare for direct nominations. The fact that Colonel Rossetti it tends to make a fight in the convention he says will go a long way to carry out his theory that the convention shall be superior to the direct nomination. Colonel Rossetti or Mr. Barnes Mr. Woodruff does not express any desire to have a fight. Concipitation is much more to his liking. Despite the peaceful tenor of the statement however only the moderates operand of how the Insurgents headed by Colonel Roosevelt are to be beaten was considered at the conference at which Mr. Barnes was the controlling guerrit. The plan agreed upon by the Old Guard it can be stated positively in the nomination of Colonel Roosevelt for Governor. By making him the candidate of the party this fall the Old Guard hopes to side track him completely. It is the sentiment of most of the groups that the Republican party is lagging down the road and particularly if Mayor Gavin in the Democratic nominee for Governor and with Colonel Roosevelt hurried he will be effectively disposed of both in the State this fall and in the nation if he decides to run again for President in 1912 Indications are plentiful tonight that the Baratoga convention will be a memorable one. Mr Barnes's plan of forcing the gubernatorial nomination upon the colonel was halled as a master stroke by the machine members, who had been let into the secret. Mr Barnes's friends contend that the colonel is not any too convergent with the meaning of direct primaries and Mr. Wadsworth, who has fought LINCOLN HAIR POMADE MAKES KINNY HAIR SOFT REMOVES DANDRUFF KEEPS HAIR FROM GREASER OFF LINCOLN HAIR POMADE WHERE NOT WOULD YOU RATHER HAVE YOUR HAIR-SOFT AND LOOK SO TEXT YOU CAN PUT IT UP IN THE LATEST STYLE OR SHORT AND KINNY KEEPS SCALP FRESH CLEANED WHILE- SOME MAKES HAIR GROW LOOKS AND LUSTERED There is no other preparation on earth to equal Lincoln Hair Pomade in producing soft, beautiful hair Lincoln Hair Pomade is a natural hair cleaner - a natural promoter of growth and naturally reduces the hair to a straight and combable condition, but also supplies the hair with a silky sheen and gloss.

This and the fight that will be made in the comm. as to resolutions, of which both Colonel Roosevelt and Mr. Barnes will undoubtedly be members, I. hey! to proftract the sessions for three or four days.

NATURDAY SEPT. 3, 1911 BOTT CALL AFTER OFFICER KILLED VICIOUS NEGRO Perkinson Forced to Shoot to Resist Attack by Pollard While trying to capture two brothers who were in a desperate fight over a woman Policeman W J Perkinson, attacked to the Second Police Station, shot and killed Refford Pollard colored thirty four years old last night about 7 30 o'clock at 1018 St Peter Street after the negro had resisted arrest. With a bullet wound through his lungs Pollard leaped a tense and fell dead When Policemen Perkinson and Walker who had been dispatched from the Second Police Station to quell a row in a house at 1018 St Peter Street reached the door they heard a shot fired. Breaking open the door the two officers found two grooves fighting for possession of a pistol Seeing the policemen both men fired Officer Walker ran after Tom Pollard and Officer Perkinson followed Pollard Pollard STUNNED BEFORE HE SHOT Dashing into the yard with with or Perkinson down to his bench. Bed- ford Pollard twisted a polling from a force and struck the policeman on the head and again on the thumb. Per- kinson was stunned for an instant but whipping out his pistol fired at the negro who run leaped a force and staggered a short distance where he sank to the ground mortally wounded. Patrolman Walker chased Tom Pollard for some distance as he scaled fences and darted through dark alleys finally making his escape. Tom Pollard made no offer to resist arrest but took to his back as if he were making a dash for his In two or three minutes after the shooting more than 1,000 negroes filled the streets and altos around the yard where the trouble had occurred. Other officers, attracted by the shots, came running through the streets in an effort to loathe the disturbance. RIOT GINS RUSHED TO SCREEN Someone is telephoned to the Second Police station that a reporter had been killed and unless a squad of police were hurried to the scene it were heard there would be a clash between the officers and the suspect. Sergeant Otto sent Sergeant Neuz Officer Kringle Tilley, Alicia Thurma Samuels, Lori New and weighed Alison with the suspect. Major Warner was hurt that day when he tried as was custom in his charge of the Second Lifesaving Station. Major Warner and his team, like many officers including Detective Sgt. Wren and Wren who picked up several officers and armed them with shot guns and ridden them with shot guns, were on the Street. Major Warner with another soldier riddled the scene of the trouble where they found humble droops of nooses at a crime and making a lot of noise. When they the police men coming with the hot guns they quickly dispersed. FORGHT TO GET PISTOL Mazie Robinson the woman shot whom the Pollard brothers engaged in a desperate combat does not know which one fired the pistol she told the police that Tom and Rolford Pollard were in her house to see that they quarried and then leaped on each other. In a hand to hand struggle a shot was fired and the woman said she could not tell by whom. She believed that the two men were fighting to gain possession of the pistol. An instant after the weapon was discharged the two policemen rushed into the house which was filled with smoke. The brothers separated and one ran one way and one the other with the policemen chasing them. It was in the yard that Rolford Pollard assaulted James Perkinson with the railing after which he was killed. PERKINSON ARRESTED Sergeant Neelz after making an investigation of the shooting promptly swore out a warrant for Police man Porkinson, and he was arrested on a formal charge of murder. He was taken to the Second Police Station where Judge Witt pleaded him under a bond of $1,000 pending the coroner's inquest. Coroner Taylor was summoned and after examining the body of Porkard ordered it sent to Understake Johnson's on Poussier Street. Dr Taylor said that the builder entered the negro's right side near the back and passed through the lungs. The post mortem examination will be held this morning at 10 o'clock. The inquest will be held tomorrow at 10 o'clock when the police hope to have captured Tom Porkard. TOM POLLARD AN EX CONVICT Several detectives were detailed last night by Major Werner and Captain Eppa to search the city for Tom Pollard. Both Pollard, negroes hear a bad reputation According to their father who lives at 807 North South Street Tom has only recently served a term in the penitentiary The old man said that Relford went to West Virginia about the time his brother was sent to prison and he remained there until Tom got out of the penitentiary, when he returned to Richmond, and the brothers have been "bumming around" together ever since—Richmond, Va.

XIV 4) Adam in the garden of Paradise and Adam (Christ) in the wilderness. Matt 4 1 Note how wily and subtle is Satan in arrogant bling these two men. He knows that both of them are perfect for both are the express image of God. Son 1 26 and Ind 4 4 He notes that understanding this knowledge has the darling assurance and tin ut nunc to ease to tempt them. In either case he directs his assault against what he considers their most vulnerable parts. One he results through the one of his wife and the other through his stomach his cup cannibalism and ambition. SoGEN (11 Cor. XIV 2 10 What Eve had yielded to the temptation of Satan and out of the forbidden fruit she preffered it to Adam. Now this was the hour of his temptation. And a sore temptation it was. From a casual reading of the history one does not apprehend the severity of the ordeal which our common father was here called upon to pass through. He might have refused to accept the fruit and parake of his wife as soon He could have done so. Perhaps you reader think that you would have done so. You could but would you have done so. High Adam refused to accept Eve offer. God was able and no doubt would have formed for him another wife ten times more beautiful and exalted than the first. But Adam had seen and known Eve and has very well was wedded to her. This first woman was perfect in every respect. Beautiful beyond comparison. We see times see women even in the desperate day so beautiful that we still amazed What then must it have been for Adam to contemplate the irretrievable loss of such a wife as Eve must have been Here. Adam's own description of love which he best applauded to him is profound. Matthew Bardley In no case should there form of the most beautiful wonderful be made up with the devil to join with her and thus the first and blessed with her and sorrow with her and sorrow with her Little need be said about the sex and great situation of the second Vilam as it fully described in Matt Wilam. old lolls day M M E F T O R I O N M E F T O R I O N I N O R D E R I N O R D E R H I N T O R I O N A Y O N E Y H I N T O R I O N A Y O N E Y H I N T O R I O N A Y O N E Y O I L E F L I K S.

As they are worth $15 a carat out this means that the pocket contained from $40 000 to $75 000 worth of the gems. Two weeks ago two other pocketr were struck in the same mine which yelled not less than 2000 carats of rough crystals, so that in the last two weeks gems which will run up over the $100 000 mark have been taken out of this mine. Tourmaline Crystals Worth $100,000 Found. The owner of the mine is Forest L. Haverey, of Ash street, Lowlawn By a curious coincidence. Mr. Farrington, collector for the Field museum in Chilcago, was present when the pocket was opened, and the figures given are made up on his estimates. A notable discovery of gems was made at the old brown farm on the road from Marston's Corner to Mine about six miles out of Auburn. Me In one pocket in a turmition mine on that farm, uncovered by a small blast, were 6000 ams of gold. Alpheus Scott Church Hill FUNERAL DIRECTOR AND EM. BALMER Open Day and Night.
