Admiral Enquist, With the Aurora, Oleg and Jemtchug, Escorted Into Bay by American Fleet Under Admiral Train.
A special from Manila says: Rea Admiral Enquist, who was commander of the heavy cruiser squadron of the Russian fleet, arrived in the bay at 9 o'clock Saturday evening on board his flagship, the protected cruiser Aurora, accompanied by the protected cruisers Oleg and Jemtchug.
All the vessels were more or less damaged, and there were many wounded men on board. Rear Admiral Train, on board His flagship, the battleship Ohio, with the Wisconsin, Oregon, Raleigh and Cincinnati, was outside Corregidor island, maneuvering when the Aurora saluted with thirteen guns and the Ohio answered. Admiral Train and his squadron accompanied the Russian vessels to Manila.
In an interview Rear Admiral Enquist's executive officer said:
"When the battle began the admiral was aboard the cruiser Oleg, which was hit a number of times by the large shot. There was an incessant rain of shot from quick firing guns, and the ship was soon badly damaged. The admiral transferred his flag to the Aurora, which then drew the combined fire of many torpedo boat destroyers at close range and the attack of submarines. We were overwhelmed by the latter. A mist arising, we made a dash for the open sea, and were followed by the Oleg and Jemchug."
Rear Almiral Enquist is uninjured. Captain Egorieff, of the Aurora, was killed by a shell which struck the conning tower, and he was buried at sea the day before reaching Manila. On the Aurora three officers were wounded, twenty of the crew were killed and eighty-three were wounded. The losses on the Oleg were thirteen of the crew killed and eighteen wounded. On the Jemtchug, the casualties were twenty-one junior officers killed and one wounded, twelve of the crew killed and thirty wounded. From their appearance the Russian vessels are not damaged below the water line. Their funnels, however, are riddled by large and small shot. Several large shells pierced them amidships and a number of guns were dismounted.
Sunday, Rear Admiral Train appointed the following board to investigate the condition of the Russian warships; Commander Calkins, Lieutenant Commander McElroy and the Ohio's carpenter, Harding.
The naval board, after an examination into the condition of the three ships, reported that the Oleg will require sixty days, the Aurora thirty days and the Jemtchug seven days to effect repairs.
The Japanese consul at Manila called on Governor General Wright twice Sunday to make inquiries regarding the disposition of the Russian vessels.
Rear Admiral Enquist, accompanied by Rear Admiral Train and the French consul, called on Governor General Wright Sunday morning. After the usual greetings had been exchanged, Governor Wright said:
"Admiral Enquist, do you wish to stay at Manila permanently?"
Rear Admiral Enquist replied:
"My ships are unseaworthy. I have not heard from my government, and I request time to make my repairs."
Governor Wright then said that according to his construction of the neutrality laws, the Russian vessels could remain long enough to make necessary repairs, and after these were finished they must leave within twenty-four hours or dismantle and interne.
SUSPECTED OF ARSON. Atlanta Merchant Is Held Pending an Investigation. Carey Wood, one of the leading manufacturers of Atlanta, was arrested Saturday afternoon by City Detectives Lockhart and Fogg, and held at police headquarters on the state charge of suspicion. It is said that suspicious circumstances surrounding a fire on West Mitchell street, in which his shirt factory was destroyed, caused his arrest. The fire damaged property valued at $15,000.

Strike Leader Again Arrested at Chicago and Loses His Temper. Conspiracy Charged.
Cornellus H. Shea, president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, and-leader in the strike which has existed in Chicago for the last two months, was once more arrested and taken to jail Monday night. With him on the journey from the saloon in which he was arrested to the office of the sheriff and then taken to the jail was Hugh McGee, president of the truck drivers' union. Both men were taken into custody en caplas issued on indictments charging them with conspiracy, which were voted by the grand jury that adjourned Saturday night.
When arrested Shea lost his temper completely and denounced the sheriff and all his works in emphatic language. He was told by the sheriff that he would be given all necessary time to procure bondsmen, but that he would be taken to jail at once unless he moderated his manner of talking.
Shea again broke into violent language, and the sheriff, turning to Deputies Honan and Wilson, commanded them to take Shea to jail immediately.
Shea saw that he had gone too far and attempted to say something to the sheriff, but the deputies took him too quickly into the hall, and from there to the street, where they halled a cab and conveyed him to jail. President McGee followed in another cab, and in a few minutes the men were inside the jail. Both were searched, according to the usual custom, by Jailer Whitman, and were then taken to cells and locked up.
After being in prison for a little more than two hours, both Shea and McGee were released, their attorneys having procured bonds, which were approved by Judge Tuthill.
Albert Young, former president on the Teamsters' Union, for whom a warrant was issued, charging him with criminal libel in connection with assertions that Robert J. Thorpe, secretary of Ward & Co., had offered $10,000 to have a strike declared against a rival house of Sears, Roebuck & Co., was arrested late Monday afternoon. He was taken before Sheriff Barrett, where he gave a bond for $5,000.
TORNADO SWEEPS MICHIGAN.
Flerce Storm Leaves Death and Destruction In Its Wake.
An electrical storm which seems to have gone through lower-Michigan on Monday night, took the form of a tornado in the "Thumb" district. Through the counties of Tuscola and Sanlla it swept a path of death and devastation half a mile wide. So far as known two children were killed, seven people fatally injured and three seriously hurt.
In addition to the above casualties Elsie Appleman, aged 12, was killed by lightning at Hemcolm, in Saginaw county, and Geo. Morrow was fatally injured by lighting at Central Lake, in Charlevoix county. Three men who had taken refuge with Morrow in a vacant building also sustained severe shocks.
The tornado started northeast of Caro and took a northeastly direction, sweeping a path half a mile wide in which residences and farm buildings were razed to the ground and stock and crops suffered heavy damages. Before crossing the line from Tuscola into Sanliac county, the storm split in two. The weaker division passed through Novesta and Snover, while the more destructive branch passed farther to the north, reaching Cass City, Urban and Laing.
Near Colwood the house and barn of James H. Mulholland were destroyed and the same fate overtook the home of Thomas Seeley. Near Cass City thirteen residences and nineteen barns were blown down.
Nan Patterson Barred from Theater. Messrs. Bowen and Talbott, who own the grand opera house at Columbus, Ohio, have refused to allow Nan Patterson to use their playbouse.

Governor Vardaman Turns Down Offer to Mississippi University.
Governor James K. Vardaman of Mississippi says the board of trustees of the state university has turned down the offer of Andrew Carnegie to give the trustees twenty-five thousand dollars provided a like amount was put up by the state for the purpose of building and equipping a library.
Governor Vardaman stated to the Associated Press that he thought the state of Mississippi was in position to supply the university with any equipment that was needed.
SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. JUNE 10. 1905.
MOVE OR BE HELD
REQUEST TURNED DOWN
Permission Granted by Admiral Train
His Rescinded by Secretary Taft
on Order of President
A Washington special says: Admiral Enquist will not be allowed to repair his ships at Manila. This government has decided that as the injuries to the vessels were not caused either by sea or storm, they will be obliged to refuse permission for the vessels to be repaired there. Monday Secretary Taft cabled the following instructions to Governor Wright at Manila regarding the ships:
"Time cannot be given for the repair of the injuries received in battle. Therefore, the vessels cannot be repaired unless interned until the end of hostilities."
Admiral Train has been instructed accordingly. It was stated by Secretary Taft that if the Russian vessels agreed to leave Manila in their present condition they were welcome to do so, but as it did not appear that they suffered from any damage caused by sea or storm, this government was obliged to take the position above outlined.
The president's decision regarding the disposition of the Russian vessels at Manila, that they shall interne or put to sea is, it is said, in Washington, in accordance with the best naval opinion, and is in pursuit of the policy of strict neutrality followed by the Washington government from the beginning of the war. It is specifically declared that there is no intention to show the slightest favoritism in the matter and everything possible will be done for the comfort of the wounded Russians. The ships when interned will, of course, be allowed to be put in a habitable condition, and such repairs as are necessary to keep them afloat will be allowed.
The decision of the president was announced after conference with Secretaries Morton and Taft. Rear Admiral Converse, chief of the bureau of navigation, personally took charge of the preparation of Instructions to Rear Admiral Train, who is to be in supreme charge of the details of the internment, this being the practice followed when the Lena put into port at San Francisco, and was interned under the direction of the commandant of the Mare Island navy yard.
Instructions to Train.
The instructions to Admiral Train when completed will be approved by the secretary and cabled to Manila in the expectation that Admiral Emquist will forthwith decide to interne in view of the bad condition of his vessels.
The Japanese minister at Washington having formally inquired of the department of state what action the United States government intends to take respecting the Russian war vessels in Manila bay, Acting Secretary Loomis responded that these vessels would be interned provided they did not leave the harbor at once. This exchange has taken place in order to formally establish the responsibility of the United States for the detention of the vessels in Manila harbor until the end of hostilities.
Russia Leaves it to Enquist.
A St. Petersburg, dispatch says:
Both the foreign office and the admiralty say the decision whether to disarm the three Russian cruisers at Manila or effect repairs there and endeavor to reach a Russian port was left to Admiral Enquist, to determine according to his best judgment. Little doubt was felt that the cruisers will be taken until the end of the war, as before the repairs which Enquist cables are imperative could be effected, a Japanese squadron would be off Corregidor Island, waiting to capture or sink the Russian boats.
TWO "JIMMIES" BURY HATCHET
Alexander and Hyde Get Together and Settle Differences.
James W. Alexander and James H. Hyde, president and first vice president of the Equitable, met in New York Saturday and, it is understood, decided to forget their differences and to act together hereafter in Equitable affairs.
The Basis of their agreement is said to have been that they would now attend to life insurance, alone and keep Wall street out of the affairs of the society.
Cooledge, Schiff and Ingalls Tire of
Ferguson, Browne, Colette
of Incesant Row in Society. Plans to establish harmony in the affairs of the Equifable Life Assurance Society were further complicated at New York Monday by the resignation of two more directors, making five in all who have recently retired from from the board. A dispatch from Boston announced that T. Jefferson Coolidge had tendered his resignation, to take, effect immediately, and this would be followed by the resignation of Jacob Schiff, head of the banking house of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., who had been a member of the board of directors for twelve years. In addition, announcement came from Cincinnati that Melville E. Ingalls would also resign.
- FERTILIZER TAGS WASTED.
Such Fact is Developed by Report of
George Agricultural Commission.
Georgia Agricultural Commissioner.
The annual report of the Georgia department of agriculture, recently sued by Commissioner O. B. Stevens, shows that during the year ending December 31, 1904, the department sold to fertilizer manufacturers tags for 177,995.5 tons of guano and cotton seed meal than was really used by the farmers of Georgia. In other words, the report indicates that the fertilizer companies, for reasons probably known to themselves, purchased from the agricultural department over $17,000 worth of tags which were never used, indicating they were recklessly wasted.
FARMING IN THE PHILIPPINES.
Uncle Sam is Showing the Natives Modern Methods of Agriculture.
Modern Methods of Agriculture.
George E. Newsm, a former Mississippiian, who is now, assistant director of agriculture in the Philippines, states that the United States government has under cultivation in these islands seven farms, each from 1,000 to 2,000 acres in extent, and twenty-five Americans and 500 natives are being used in the effort to show the Filipinos the modern methods of agriculture.
Mr. Newsm states that the natives are taking kindly to the improved machinery used in farming, but the steam roller, self-binder and thresher were such a big jump from the holo, flail and mortar that for quite a while the natives were very much frightened with the new devices.
Czar's Action In Making Trepoff a Dictator Causes Mighty Sensaion.
ATOR Causes Mighty Sensation.
A St. Petersburg dispatch says: Emperor Nicholas' ukase virtually creating Governor General Trepoff dictator, has caused a mighty sensation.
It is the imperial recognition of the crisis in the internal affairs of Russia.
The ukase came like a bolt from a clear sky. M. Boulgin, minister of the interior, immediately resigned. It is probable that other ministers will follow suit.
Eccentric Citizen of Villa Rica, Ga. Under Serious Charge:

A Number of Lives Reported Lost and Geat Property Damage Wrought by Ragling Elements.
Reports sent out Tuesday from Detroit say that the rain and windstorm, which was general all over the lower part of Michigan Monday and Monday night, was most severe in many localities. In addition to the loss of life reported, heavy property loss occurred in all directions.
At Grand Rapids the rainfall was almost a coudburst. On the west side districts were flooded that were not affected by the great flood of 1904. About 500 homes were surrounded by water. A number of manufacturing plants were compelled to close for the day, their first floors being two and three feet under water. No trains arrived or departed from the city during the early part of the day.
Three grand trunk bridges are washed out in Ottawa county. At Lowell the bridge across Grand River was washed out, with two buildings that stood on the bank. At Ionia the Grand river is many feet over its banks and thousands of dollars on damage has been done by the high water. The Spring Brook mill, two miles above Lowell, on the Grand Trunk, were washed out. At Lansing the precipitation was 2.94 inches Monday afternoon and Monday night, the heaviest rainfall in thirteen years.
The storm damages in western Michigan is estimated at $50,000. The loss in Grand Rapids and immediate vicinity alone will reach $100,000. The list of those injured in the "Thumb" district by the cyclone was increased on Tuesday when word was received from the village of Kingston that eleven people were injured there. One of them may die. Thirteen houses and eighteen barns were blown down in the vicinity of the village.
PLUMBERS IN CONVENTION.
National Association Holds Twenty-
Third Annual Meeting in Atlanta. The first sessions of the twenty-third annual convention of the National Association of Master Plumbers were held in Atlanta, Ga., Tuesday, the first at 10 o'clock in the morning and the second at 2:30 o'clock in the afternoon. The morning session consisted for the most part of addresses of welcome and response to the same. Governor Terrell, who was slated to deliver the address of welcome on the part of the state of Georgia, was unavoidably absent, and Albert Howell, Jr., made an able substitute.
David Craig of Boston called the convention to order, and turned the meeting over to A. F. Bellingrath on the local association. Mr. Bellingrath then introduced General Clement A. Evans, who delivered the opening prayer. Albert Howell, Jr., then made the address on behalf of the state. Following him Mayor Woodward was called upon by the presiding officer to voice the sentiments of the city of Atlanta.
Miss Margaret Lilly Ford then read the poem entitled "The Song of the South," which had been written by Frank L. Stanton, especially for the occasion. The poem and the reading were well received. President David Craig made a short but brilliant response on behalf of the national association to the welcome addresses. The routine business of the convention was then begun.
NEW MEXICAN AMBASSADOR.
President Diaz appointed Joaquin D. Cassaus to be ambassador of Mexico in the United States to succeed the late Manuel Aspiroz. Mr. D.

The Southern Cotton Association Makes an Investigation, as a Result of Which a Very Grave Charge Is Made.
A New York dispatch says: Richard Chegatham of Atlanta, secretary of the Southern Cotton Growers' Association, who is in this city, has declared his intention of calling President Roosevelt's attention to what he considers gross irregularities in both the preparation and the publication of the government cotton report issued last Friday.
Mr. Cheatham will make no charge of bribery or any other crime, his intention is to ask for a rigile, verification and that the resignation one of the important employee souls statistical bureau of the department of agriculture be demanded. It is understood that he charges some one in the department with having manipulated figures and given them in advance of publication to certain brokers for use in depressing the cotton market.
The Southern Cotton Growers Association is an organization of planters and southern brokers, whose object it is to regulate, so far as possible, the acreage of cotton and to protect the planters and other southern interests from manipulation of the market tending to depress the price of the staple. Officers of the association declare they have as many experts as the department of agriculture and make every effort to secure the most trustworthy information regarding the crop condition.
For several months the statistics gathered by the association have been at variance with those emanating from Washington, and the officers of the association, together with brokers and cotton merchants in this city have conducted a secret investigation in the hope of ascertaining the reasons for the discrepancy.
A prominent broker, it is now asserted, has gathered the most important of documentary evidence in the case. From employees of the department of agriculture, he says, some of whom are in the habit of making frequent visits to this city, he has learned that advance information in regard to the reports could be secured. He followed up this inquiry inquiring whether or not the report has been changed, and alleges he was successful in this endeavor, also receiving letters from at least one of the prominent firms of cotton brokers in this city, which had such an understanding with at least one officer.
Mr. Cheatham was notified of the alleged discoveries by telegraph, and made a hurried trip to New York. After many hours spent in consultation, he journeyed to Washington, remained a few hours and returned to New York, saying he desired signatures to a document in his possession.
It is said that Cheatham will charge that the figures of the bureau of statistics have been manipulated in the interests of a certain bearish element in the market here and this charge will include not only the furnishing of advance information pertaining to the government figures, but also falsification of these figures. In the case of the report issued, last Friday he will charge that plans were laid a month in advance.
Secretary Wilson talks.
A Washington dispatch says: Secretary Wilson, at the conclusion of the cabinet meeting, said his attention had been called to the charges of the Southern Cotton association that there had been a "leak". In the information gathered by the agricultural department in regard to the cotton crop: He characterized the charges as ridiculous. It was possible, he said, that somebody connected with the department had been pretending to have knowledge of figures of the department, but, as a matter of fact, it was practically impossible for anybody to, obtain advance information of any value.
"The reports from the various states in the cotton belt," said he, "and those from the field agents of the department are received by the statistician under seal and placed in a safe. On the day, when the totals are to be footed and the estimates made these reports are, taken from the safe in the presence of myself, the statistician and such assistants as we may need to do the work. Behind locked doors we examine the report and make up the report, which as soon as we complete the task is given to the public.

Masons to Meet’
On Luesday morning next at 9
o’clock the mest Worshipfal Union
Grand Lodge of Ancient, Free and
Acoepted Masons will cenvene in its
thirty-fifth anogal communication
in the city of Americus.
For the past several years the
Grand Lodge has been convening in
Amerioug where it has erected a
large building for the accommods-
tion of ita widows and orpbans with
a spacious auditorium where hun-
dreds of persona can be easily seated.
‘This communiostion of the Grand
Lodge ix expected to be the best in
eyery reapact, There will be an in-
creased attendance, and from earlier
reports each Lodge will report many
mere members, thereby increasing
the finance.
Daring the year the Lodges got
along harmoniously. There haa been
‘but alight complaint along this line,
and an air of progressiveness seems
to have pervaded the entire jurisdic-
tion. om
Grand Master H. R. Butler, M.
D., of Atlanta, makes a model Grand
Master and by hie faithfulness te
duty and desire to promote the
[progressive spirit, is dolug for the
Grand Lodge that which will make
the jurisdiction the leading one in
‘the country.
Seme of the leading colored men
ip the state are members of this
order and in a quiet way are doing
that which goes to make our race
solid in every way.
This Grand Lodge is doing a work
that no other orgu:ization of its
kind is doing. It is caring in a
practical way for the poor orphans
and widows of the order. In the
home a number of little ones are
being cared for and the true spirit
of manhood and womanhood being’
inptilled in them.
The continuance of the present
quire of harmony in the Grand
dge will cause increased growth
along every line.
Pythian Pointers.
| The coming session of the
Knights of Pythias Grand
Lodge will be the largest in
point of attendance. Intelli-
gence has been received that
rigadier General Taylor of
Jacksonville, with his sfaff and
ja company’ will be present to
unite inthe parade Many of
the sir knights of Beaufort will
also be present. Capt. W. D.
‘Armstrong, the indefatigable
chairman of the itt. committee
will :see that all of'them are
cared for.
Assurances have been receiv-
edfrom every part of the state
that cause us at this juncture to
truthfally assert that Sir Chas.
A. Clark 'will be elected on the
first ballot with a handsome
majority. If the sentiment con.
tinues to grow he will be elected
‘ungnimously.
Grand Chancellor Cresswill
would be honored more if he
would gractally, decline the
use‘ofhis name as a candidate
for re-election. Defeat for him
will not give him the Rrestige
that he otherwise, would have.
His frieids should advise him
along this line, for if he goes up
he will be overwhelmingly de-
feated. :
We need more Supreme
Lodge representatives, e can
get them by making 2 change
in the Grand Chance} orehip. :

State, especially in the Northern
section, that Sir Clark. will ats

“Oa Noy. rst, O. D. Creswill; of your
representatives, was requested to mect a

Jantls, “Things of this sort can't be

“A moment!” cehocd Mrs. Gardl-
‘ner. “Why, it's full three months since
Grey Velham commenced visiting
You!”
“Set your heart at rest, aunt,” said
‘Marion, with a glance of triumph
shooting from beneath her drooping,
Dlue-reined cyelids. “If ever a man
avas desperately in love, he is—the
time of his bachelor freedom grows
sbort.”
oMBut how short?”
“Will you be satisfied if he proposes
ma week?”
“Yes—but he will not.”
“Leave him to me!’ said the tall
beauty, imperiously, “I dm as impa-
‘tient as you are—but I know very well
it will not do to show it”
“It i3 shockingly expentive,” sald
‘Mrs. Gardiner, piaintively. “When [
took the furnished house for six
months, I supposed you would be off
my hands long before this—and the
servants’ bills, and the account for the
coupe, with the driver in white gloves,
and—”
“Spare me the reiteration of honse-
hold annoyances, aunt,” said Marion,
impatiently. “You are supposed to be
a wealthy dowager. I, your heiress
‘niece, What sort of society do you,
suppose we could have commanded if
People had known our real status?”
“Well, I suppose you are right,” said
‘Mrs. Gardiner, disconsolately; “but.
dear me, Marion, if this last chance
should fail”
“It will not fail, aunt. Haven't I
told you to set your heart at rest?”
- thus ended the colloquy between
aunt and niece, and Mrs. Gardiner
left the room to attend the summons
of her cook, 7
Marion rose slowJy, walked, with the
step of a princess, to the full length
mirror, framed in a net-work of gilt
passion vine leaves, and looked into
its surface, .
- What a lovely picture smiled back
-upon her, flushed with the soft wine
Tight of sunset. 4 tall, flexible Dgure,
full of-unstudfed grace; a small head,
royally set upon the slender, snowy
throat, and crowned with braids of
silken Diack hair, coiled round ard
round in glossy profusion. Her com-
plexion was rather dark, but fine
grained as satin, with a delicate crim-
son glow on cither cheek, and lips full
and seariet as newly ripened cherries,
awhile her lovely black eyes. large and
soft as velvet, gave a tender expres-
sion to the whole countenance.
“Xes," murmured Marion Delaney,
‘half aloud. “I have beauty — Grey
Pelham has rank and wealth. Are
We not evenly matched? What right
“las he to ask for more?”
The thoughts were yet meting
‘through her brain, when a servant en-
tered, with 4 sealed missive in her
hand, :
“A telegram, miss, Just arrived!”
Marion caught it from the servant's
hand and tore it open.
“Miss Delancy,” it read, “your father
4s much worse and more troublesome
toulay, and I cannot continue to take
charge of him, unless arrears are paid
up at once. If I do not see you soon,
I shall bring him up to New York,
and return him to your care,
“SARAH DARBY.”
Marion flushed scarlet, and bit her
Up until her small, white teeth sleamed
Findictively, :
“What a bother!’ she muttered to
herself; “but it is Just like that spite-
ful old Darby to, carry her senseless
threats into execution. I must get ten
ollars fram Aunt Gardiner to stop her
mouth with; and the sooner the bet-
ter. Perhaps I had best take the even-
ing express down to Berkedale at
onee,.”
She glanced at her tiny Geneva
dwateli,
“Yes, I have time; but I ought not
to waste it now, of all times! One
night's delay may cast some chill
across the glow of Grey Pelham's
love; but there Is no (alternative left
ame.” ‘
And the evening express carritd Miss
Delancy down to,the obscure littleVil-
Jage where her poor, crazed, old tather
was farmed out, at the least possible
rates of-compensation, to a hard faced
svidow with a heart like adamant and
‘sympathies dried down to the merest
shreds.
Meanwhile, Grey Pelham, Esquire, in
his elegant bachelor sanctum, was pre-
paring himself elaborately for an even-
ing call on his fair goddess. It was a
room whose adornment and decoration
bespoke not only wealth without stint
ag eeounds Of ruby velvet;
Paintings that an amateur would have
valued at their weight in gold opened
the glow of Neapolitan skies and misty
Swiss valleys to the eye, and cabinets
of rare cameos and antique coins filled
the recesses.
But the student and philosopher were
now merged in the enthusiastic lover.
Grey Pelham had lost his heart to the
mystic sparkles of Marion Delancy’s
marvelous, velvet black eyes, and
“Love was now the, lord’ of all,” ac-
cording to the orthodox burden of
song and story.
He was a handsome, well built man
of about thirty, with brown hair, deep
hazel eses, and features, which if not
strictly regular, were sufficiently well
moulded, and possessed the rare merit
of expression, -
‘The last sunset rays were just touch-
ing the stone cornices of the elegant
mansion that Mrs. Gardiner called
“her ancestral inheritance”—not deem-
ing it worth while to mention the
trifling fact that It was rented from a
Jewish stock broker at 2 thousand dol-
lars a month—when Mr. Pelliam rang
the doorbell.
“Out of town?" he repeated, after
the servant. “How , unfortunate!
Where has she gone, and when did she
gor” :
Now, Margery being a new servant,
had not yet learned the crooked ways
and wiles of the Gardiner household,
and unwittingly answered the truth.
“She's gone to Berksdale, sir, and
maybe she'll be obliged to stay two
or thiee days, I heard her tell the
‘missus. It’s at Mrs, Darby's, sir,
where—” |
“Berksdale, ch?”
‘Mr. Peluam knew that another train
left within the next hour or so—the
last train that night, and he resolved
to follow his bright beacon star forth-
with, Poor fellow, he had reached that
desperate stage in love in which all
shots where the beloved one is not are
howling wildernesses.
We slipped a bank bill into Margers’s
aof unwilling fingers, and hurried down
the street.
“E will seek her out, and let her
sweet lips decide my fate at once,” be
thought. “Marion! How appropriate
is the sweet Scottish name to her pure
sind gentle womanliness! All the Mar-
Jons in poetry and romance are models
of grace and gentleness, and she 13 no
exception.”
(You see that Mr. Pelham was very
much in fore.)
Berksdale was soon reached by the
iron feet of steam, but, rapid a8 the
Progress was, it failed to keep pace
with the youbg man’s feverish impa-
tience.
It was eight o'clock, with a full moon
shining upon the fresh spring folage,
when, after having been duly directed
to Mrs. Darby's, he set forth on his
walk to the secluded village nook.
“Darby—Mrs. Darby? She do be the
one who keeps the old, crazy gentle-
man, and a rare un she 4s to thump
him round! Ob, yes, sir. Ain't more’n
a aille beyant the big, church—a red
house, with a big poplar tree in front.”
‘Thus instructed with regard, to the
locality, Grey Pelham felt ilat he
could not well go wrong.
‘The red house, with a big poplar tree
fa front, presented no very inviting
aspect as he strode upcto the wide
open door, ‘The blinds hung on one
hinge, creeking dolefully im the breeze;
the gate was tied up with loops of
Tusty rope, where nails should have
been; and broken crockery, invalided
tinware and heaps of oyster shells
adorned the doorsard in lieu of vel-
vety grass and borders of flowers.
Grey Pelham, wondering a little as
fo what business could possibly bring
Marion Delancy to such a spot as this,
Knocked at the open door, but no one,
responded to the summons.
He knocked again, and yet a third
time, with no better success, and fin-
ally walked boldly into # little sitting
room, Where yawning portals seemed
to invite entrance. A single oll lamp
burned on the table, by whose light he
could just find his way to a chair.
“{ suppose I may as well sit down
here and wait until some one comes,”
he said, resignedly to himself,
As he did so, he became aware of
oiees in the adjoining apartment,
raised high in altercation, and of a
name spoken in shrill tones~a nam
ear and precious in his ears.
“L tell you, Miss Delancy, ‘tain't
erough! Two dollars in a week won't
pay his board, let alone'the clothes and
the lodging!”
And Marion's accents, silvery sweet,
answered in low, measured tones:
“Two dollars a week is a great deal
‘SUPPLEMENT TO SAVANNAH TRIBUNE, SATURDAY, JUNBD 10, 1905. —

and it ain’t hardly decent to let him
starve.”
| t¥ou are too extravagant in your
ideas, Mrs, Darby. What can an old
‘man ifke that want of new clothes and
‘dainty fare? I téll you, I can't afford
to pay you more than two dollars a
week; my expenses in New York are
ruinous, and—" \
“Then you may as well send him to
the poorhouse at once, Miss Delancy.
I won't undertake to keep him short
of three dollars, at the very least.” -
“I don't like to do that,” Marlon an-
swered, hesitatingly, as if the idea
commended itself to her as not imprac-
tleable in some respects. “People wilt
talk?
“They'll talk just the same if you
Jet him starve to death here, and a
good deal worse.”
“It's a great nulsance,” sald Marlon,
Ampatiently. “Well, I suppose I will
have to pay you two dollars and a
halt”.
‘The other woman grumblingly as-
sented, but added:
“Don't you want to see him? He's’
talked a great deal bout his pretty
girl's comin’.”
“See him? Oh, no, not for the world!
It always racks my nerves. You
needn't tell him I’ve been here!”
“Well!” ejaculated the other; “If you
ain't the coolest one, Miss Delancy! I
don't set up to be the most devoted
daughter in existence, but if my father
was like your’n, I'd ‘want at least ‘to
see him once in 2 while.”
“What would be the use? Here’s
the quarter's money in advance; and
if he gets violent or troublesome again,
just lock hign upon bread and water!
Now, show me to my room, please, for
I've got to get back in the early train
to-morrow morning, before my de!
voted cavalier misses me!”
“Then it's true that you are going
to marry a rich man down in New
York, Miss Delaney! Squire Frothing-
bam sald you was, but, la! there's
heaps o' reports that haven't no more
foundation than 2 whiff of smoke.”
‘Miss Delancy Jaughed triumphantly.
“You will see, three months from
now, Mrs, Darby. That's right; get’

Grey Pelbam had sat 2s motionless
luring this conversation as if he had
been turned to stone! Honorable gen-
tleman that he was, he would have
scorned the idea of eavesdropping; but

THE CROCODILE.

composition on “Tlic Crocodile:” “The
crocodile is a large animal that inhab-
its the Nile and loves to go on the
sandy beach to bask in the sunshine
and lay eggs. It looks some’ Ike a
daschund, only there {s more of it at
the ends and it is bigger. There was
‘@ crocodile once that escaped from a
elreus. It roamed over the cowitry,
seeking in vain for pigs and small chil-
dren to devour, and died of starvation
in great anguish. You can ride on the
back of 2 crocodile, but it is more com-
fortable to use a saddle, It is usually

THE FAGLE’S EYE °°
All birds of prey have a peculiarity
of eye structure that enables them to
see near or distant objects equally
well. An eagle will ascend more than
a mile in helght, and from that great
elevation can perceive fts prey, small
though it may be, and pounce on it
with certainty. Yet It can examine an
object close at hand just as well, thus
possessing a power of accommodating
Ite sight to distance that is impossible
to the human eye.
In looking at this page you find that
there is some particular distance, prob-
ably about ten inches, at which you
can see each letter distinctly and-rend
the words; but i¢ you move the page
off to a distance of forty inches, or
bring it up to within fixe inches of
your eyes, you canuot read ft at all.
But the eagle has the power of alter-
tig what fs called the focus of its eye
as It pleases. It has only to look at an
object from a distance of two miles or
x few Inches to see it equally well.
The ball of the eye Js surrounded by
Often, little plates, called sclerotic
bones, They form a complete ring, and
their edges slightly overlap each-other.
When it looks at a distant object this
circle of bones expands, and the ball
of the eye, belng relleyed from the pres-
sure, becomes fiatter; when it looks at
2 near object the circle contracts and
the ball of the eye is squeezed into a
rounder form.
All this is done involuntarily; it Is
simply a provision of nature. In hota
beings a very round eye is nearsighted,
and a fiat eye is far-sighted; and the
eagle Las rst one and then the other,

AUNT MARY STORIES.
WOlves were numero ee
days in Indiana. My father always
brought the slicep into a lot close to
the house at night. We had two large
dogs and a small house dog that had
come with usfrom Kentucky. One cold
winter night we heard the big dogs
barking furiously, and we knew theré
were wolves in the neighborhood. My
father sprang from the bed, put on
his shoes and trousers, and ran out-
doors. The little house dog followed at
his heels and yelped pltcously. Out-
side the sheep were huddled in the cor-
ner of the lot nearest the house, while
a gaunt, big wolf was circling about
trying to get past the dogs‘and at the
sheep. On secing my father the wolf
started for the woods, the two ble
dogs In pursult, but afraid to selze him,
Now one of the dogs was a swift-
running hound that could outrun any
wolf. But once a wolf had gashed him
with bis teeth and the hound would
nevér thereafter take hold of a wolf,
although he would run after wolves,
circle around them and try to bring
them at bay. But the little Louse dog
was afraid of wolves, not only for him-
self, but for my father. He was afraid
my father would get too close to the
wolves on this occasion and so he rat
in front of him and tried to stop him.

WHEN A REINDEER’S ANGRY.
We were forced to walt three days
after it had stopped snowing for a
crust to form, so that we could travel
again. It was with many misgivings
that we began the Jast half of the jour-
ney, since the snow was now very deep
and the danger of our sinking into
drifts was great. To add to our gen-
eral feeling of fear the reindeer be-
haved very badly and were excecd-
ingly unruly. The wind had moder
ated somewhat, but it was still intense-
Is cold.
We had traveled half the day with-
out any serious mishap, and were be-
ginning to forget our fears at starting
out, when we sped merrily down a
mountain side, singing and helloing at
the top of our voices, and ran into a
guich- and stuck there. The song
stopped in our throats, and we sprang
to our feet to sink waist deep in the
drifts that had entrapped us.
Every movement of our bodies sank
us deeper in the snowdrifts, and the in-
furlated reindeer, finding themselves
caught in the banked-up snow almost
to thelr haunches, turned upon us and
Would have pawed us to death but for
the forethought of Oosilik, who, seeing
our danger, sprang forward and, hoist-
ing the overturned pulks in his strong
arms, brought them down over our
heads and shoulders and pinned us out
of sight in the snow.
We heard the hoofs of Uncle Ben
beating of the pulk’s side as he pawell
up the snow In his efforts to get at us,
and if we had not held to the straps
and had not kept the pulk over us ho
avould have tossed it into the air with
‘one sweep of his horns, and would still
have had his bout vith us, in which
case we should have been helpless and
completely at his mercy.
For the first time we had occasion to
see how flerce an angry reindeer can
be. Whenhe was convinced that he
could not reach us, Uncle Ben turned
upon Oosilik, and we heard the Eskimo
shouting and clubbing the deer as he
tan in and ont of the pulks in a swift
clreuit, pursued by the bellowing rein-
deer.
‘We spent an exciting half hour under
the pulks, with the hoofs of the deer
rattling like hail on the frozen boards,
and then the unusual commotion
ceased all at once, for the reindeer had
found a lichen bed. In a jiffy they
were pawing up the snow in their
hurry to get at the succulent moss,
and we were forgotten. |
Amalik and Oosilik lifted the pulks.
from our heads and dug us out of the
snow and set us on our feet. By the
time the reindeer had eaten themselves
into a passable humor Amallkj and
Oosilik led them back to the pulks.
We had four hours of travelitig be-
fore we came in sight of the corral
that had sent us the refndeer from
Eaton Station. As soon as the deer
scented the well-known corral they
quickened their strides, so that we
reached dhe'station beforagt was quite
dark, and crawled from tife sleds with
a deep feeling of rellef, glad beyond
measure to be at home after the perils

The United States Government Har
‘Agents Abroad Who Watch tht
Purchasers. of Preclous Stoness,__..
| The first difficulty in smuggling may,
be encountered at the-diamond mas
kets of-Europe. In Paris, for instance?
the United States Government has four
agents whose duty is to keep the
United States customs officials in touch
‘with the parchases of stones by rest
dents of the United States. If Joho
Jones of New York is visiting Paris
and bas bought a fine diamond -or
more from a Paris dealer and retutot
to the New York port of entry. without
declaring such stones, a question 18
certain to be asked of him. *
The Paris degler, in accordance witli
the cuStom of’ the trade, bag taken
the’name and address of the purchaser;
a description of the stone, its color, its
weight, and, perhaps, a memorandum
of a possible peculiarity. Yet there
are European diamond dealers who da
not recognize the justice of protective
tariffs, or even tariffs for revenue, and
some of thesé refuse to recognize
American agents.
But considering that the svould-be

chases in the European markets and
starts home with them. In the first

ithe lives in New York or Boston, will
have been at least $200, while they
might as easily have been $500 for the
round trip. The time of the trip will
be scarcely less thai a month, which,
for a man of average ability in a clerf-
cal position, will mean $100 at least,
The interest on the money primarily in
vested in the stones will need to be
considered, to say nothing of the elo

TWO OPEN LETTERS
TWO OPEN LETTERS
IMPORTANT TO MARRIED WOMEN
Mrs. Mary Dimmick of Washington tells How Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Made Her Well.
It is with great pleasure we publish the following letters, as they convincingly prove the claim we have so many times made in our columns that Mrs.
Mrs. Mary Dimmick
Pinkham, of Lynn, Mass., is fully qualified to give helpful advice to sick women. Read Mrs. Dimmick's letters. Her first letter:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
"I have been a sufferer for the past eight years with a trouble which first originated from painful menstruation—the pains were excruciating, with inflammation and ulceration of the womb. The doctor says I must not want to submit to an operation if I can possibly avoid it. Please help me."—Mary Mary Dimmick, Washington, D.C. Her second letter;
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
"You will remember my condition when I last wrote you, and that the doctor said I must have an operation or I could not live. I received your kind letter and followed your advice and I will always stay well. As my case was so serious my miracle that I am curled. I know that I owe not only my health but my life to Lyda E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and to your advice. I can walk miles without an ache or pain and I will always stay well. I would read this letter and realize what you can do for them."—Mary Mary Dimmick, 59th and East Capitol Streets, Washington, D.C. How easy it was for Mrs. Dimmick to write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass., and how little it cost her—a two-cent stamp. Yet how valuable the reply! As Mrs. Dimmick says—it saved her life. Mrs. Pinkham has on file thousands of just such letters as the above, and offers niling women helpful advice.

"During one of my trips through Europe," says Charles Hawtrey, "I found myself in a small village with no razors. They had been packed in my handbag, which I had left at the hotel where I had stayed the day before. There was no barber shop in the place and I was in a quandary as to how I might get shaved. The imkeeper told me that there was a man in the village who occasionally shaved people, and I determined to risk a cut or two and send for him. The amateur barber arrived and after a little healtitation he said to me:
"Will you please, sir, lie down flat on your back while I shave you, sir?"
"Thinking that it was probably the custom of the country, I stretched out comfortably on my back and nearly went to sleep while the fellow shaved me, so light was his touch. When he had finished I said:
"I am curious to know why you asked me to lie down to be shaved?"
"Because, sir, was his ingenious reply, 'I never before shaved a live man.'
"I may add that I sent for no more amateur barbers to shave me during my trip.'"—Cleveland Plain Dealer.

FEED YOU MONEY.
Feed Your Brain, and It Will Feed You Money and Fame.
"Ever since boyhood I have been especially fond of meats, and I am convinced I ate too rapidly, and failed to mastache my food properly.
"The result was that I found myself, a few years ago, afflicted with alliments of the stomach and kidneys, which interfered seriously with my business.
"At last I took the advice of friends and began to eat Grape-Nuts instead of the heavy meats, etc., that had constituted my former diet.
"I found that I was at once benefited by the change, that I was soon relieved from the heart-burned the indigestion that used to follow my meals, that the pain in my back from my kidney affliction had ceased, showing that those organs had been healed, and that my nerves, which used to be unsteady, and my brain, which was slow and lethargic from a heavy diet of meats and greasy foods, had, not in a moment, but gradually, and none the less surely, been restored to normal efficiency. Now every nerve is steady and my brain and thinking faculties are quicker and more acute than for years past.
"After my old style breakfasts I used to suffer during the forenoon from a feeling of weakness which hindered me seriously in my work, but since I have begun to use Grape-Nuts food I can work till dinner time with all ease and comfort." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

GOVERNMENT LIGHT.
HISTORIC CHICKAMAUGA PARK
ABLAZE WITH ILLUMINATION.
United States System of Lighting Military Post Pronounced Gratifyingly Successful-Six and One-Half Miles of Malas—Sixty-Five Street Lights.
Chickamauga Park, Ga., May 31. The United States Government has here in operation one of the largest acetylene gas plants in the world. The military post at the entrance of the historical Chickamauga outtield, where thirty thousand Union and Confederate soldiers were lost in the memorable battle of September 19 and 20, 1863, contains about one hundred buildings, the seventy-five principal ones of which are lighted with acetylene. To accomplish this six and one-half miles of mains and two miles of service pipes are in use, while sixty-five street lamps brilliantly illuminate the avenues of the post.
In 1903 the War Department installed a test acetylene plant at Fort Meyer, Virginia. The results were so gratifying and the superiority of the illuminant so evident that the Government, March 20, 1901, placed the contract for the Chickamauga plant, in which every citizen of the United States should have his pro rata of pride. But the Government has not confined its acceptance of acetylene to this military post. Since becoming satisfied of the efficiency, superiority and economical advantages of this particular illuminant, the United States has installed a number of plants in Indian schools and other Government institutions.
Acetylene gas is one of the simplest as well as the most perfect of artificial lights. It is made by the contact of water and carbide (a manufactured product for sale at a nominal price), is absolutely safe and gives a beautiful white light soothing to the eyes and nerves. It can be produced anywhere—in the farm home, the village store, the town hall, the church—and is so easily maintained as to be practical for all classes.
It is a matter for national congratulation that in beautifying so historic a spot as Chlekamanga, nothing but the best, including the lighting system, has been deemed good enough for the American people.

ULCERS FORTHIRTY YEARS
Painful Eruptions From Knees to Feet
Somed Incurable—Cuticura
Ends Misery.
Another of those remarkable cures by
Cuticura, after doctors and all else had
failed, is testified to by Mr. M. C. Moss,
Gainesville, Texas, in the following letter:
"For over thirty years I suffered from
painful ulcers and an eruption from my
knees to feet, and could find neither
doctors nor medicine to help me, until I used
Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills, which
cured me in six months. They helped me
the very first time I used them, and I am
glad to write this so that others suffering
as I did may be saved from misery."
Early Rising No Longer Wise?
Prof. J. A. March, of Northwestern University expresses the view that such proverbs as "early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise," are out of date in the 20th century. Formerly, he points out, when the problem of satisfactory artificial lighting had not been solved, the night did not lend itself readily to either work or recreation. "The scholars of former centuries must study by sunlight or not study at all. Whatever hours were wasted in sleep in the morning could not be made good in the evening, except at the greatest disadvantage. The words of Jesus, 'The night cometh when no man can work,' had for His hearers literal meaning, but for us they are only figurative," says Prof. March.
People have turned their whole day around now. Many eat their heaviest meal at the end of the work-day. This interferes with the rule of "early to bed." On the other hand the man who rises very early is apt to wasto time waiting for the rest of the world to warm up. The eyes are weak and relaxed on rising, the stomach is empty, and especially study is at this time injurious to the health, he adds.

FORESTS DUE TO THE FOGS.
Peculiar Conditions Found to Exist in the Congo Valley. A peculiar climatic feature exists in the southern part of the Congo valley for 10 degrees south of the equator. The rivers and lakes are found to be bordered with a dense vegetation, which extends out from the water a distance proportioned to the extent of the water surface. Adjacent hills and mountains are often covered with dense vegetation on one side and are bare on the other. Beyond this bordering vegetation there are plains, almost treeless or with small scrub growth and thin grass.
The explanation is given as follows: From May to October there is a dry season, with hot days and fairly cool nights (often 50 degrees Fahrenheit). The evaporation of the daytime is followed by condensation into fog at night. This fog moistens the country adjacent to the water surfaces and causes a luxuriant growth of vegetation. The morning winds blow the fog against the exposed sides of hills and mountains and up the valleys of tributary streams. Wherever the fog is not carried the country is dry. The natives reflect this characteristic of their hills by shaving off their hair from one side of their heads. Dense forests are found where the fogs prevail, while out of range of this moisture there is only a sparse vegetation.
Wealthy Men In Colorado.
David Moffatt, of Denver, is the wealthiest man in Colorado, which outranks all other States in per-capita wealth. Colorado has the further distinction that most of its vast fortunes were made within its boundaries, not alone in mining, but in the cattle industry, in reality speculation, in fruit, sugar-beet culture, potato farming and in manufacturing and other mercantile pursuits. There are 108 resident millionaires in Colorado, their total wealth being $200,000,000. Mr. Moffatt is worth from $25,000,000 to $300,000,000. About 100 men worth seven or more figures made their money in the State and reside elsewhere.—Kansas City Journal.

COMPLETELY RESTORED.
Mrs. P. Brunzel, wife of P. Brunzel, stock dealer, residence 3111 Grand Ave, Everett, Wash., says: "For fifteen years I suffered with terrible pain in my back. I did not know what it was to enjoy a night's rest and arose in the morning feeling tired and unrefreshed. My suffering sometimes was simply indescribable. When I finished the first box of Doan's Kidney Pills I felt like a different woman. I continued until I had taken a few horses.

Just Discrimination in Bolivia
Just Discrimination in Railway Rates.
All railroad men qualified to speak on the subject in a responsible way are likely to agree with President Samuel Spencer, of the Southern Railway, when he says: "There is no division of opinion as to the desirability of stopping all secret or unjustly discriminatory devices and practices of whatsoever character."
Mr. Spencer, in speaking of "unjustly discriminatory" rates and devices, makes a distinction which is at once apparent to common sense. There may be discrimination in freight rates which is just, reasonable and imperatively required by the complex commercial and geographical conditions with which expertate makers have to deal. To abolish such open and honest discrimination might paralyze the industries of cities, States, and whole sections of our national territory.
This distinction between just and unjust discrimination is clearly recognized in the conclusions of the International Railway Congress, published yesterday:
"Tariffs should be based on commercial principles, taking into account the special condition upon the commercial value of the enterprise, the commercial reservation that rates shall be charged without arbitrary discrimination to all shippers alike under like conditions, the making of mates should as far as possible have all the clastically necessary to permit the development of traffic and to produce the greatest results to the public and to the railroads themselves."
The present proposal is, as Mr. Walker D. Hines, of Louisville, showed in his remarkable testimony the other day before the Senate Committee at Washington, to crystallize flexible and justly discriminatory rates into fixed Government rates which cannot be changed except by the intervention of some Government tribunal, and by this very process to increase "the temptation to depart from the published rate and the lawful rate in order to meet some overpowering and urgent commercial condition."—New York Surf.
