PALMA IN DANGER
Plotters are Seeking Life of Cuban President.
EVIDENCE IS UNEARTHED
Lot of Firearms and Ammunition to Be Used in Overthrow of Government Found Secreted—Prominent Cubans Involved.
Advices from Havana state that evidence obtained by the committee which is investigating the discovery by secret police Saturday last of a considerable quantity of arms, ammunition and accoutrements in a house In the Cerro suburb is tending to implicate a few men of some prominence. The government has no doubt that the materials came from the United States, and it is seeking to learn who were the purchasers.
The police found forty one rifles, twenty-one carbines, thirty-five packages, each containing a thousand cartridges, and some barrels filled with ammunition and accoutrements.
Government officials admit now that they have received various secret advice regarding contemplated uprisings before election day in various parts of the island, particularly in the provinces of Santiago, Santa Clara and Pinar del Río, with a probable attack on the palace in Havana. The object of the latter, according to the officials, appears to be the removal, possibly by assassination, of President Palma. The plotters, it is pointed out, are well aware, since there is now no vice president, that the election of President Palma's successor would, according to the constitution, be in the hands of congress, and that the liberals, with the help of a few independents, could control both houses.
The government has not revealed its information as to the extent of these plots, but special measures have been taken for guarding the palace. The facts that the president and his family are remaining at home, and that troops are being sent to the points where, according to reports, the plotting originated, are considered significant. So far as known, however, these plots are not generally backed by any large party, and, whether they are widespread or otherwise, the active watchfulness against any form of uprising is believed to have quelched any ambitions of the plotters.
ALLEGATION OF NEPOTISM.
Atlanta Mayor Accuses City Officials of Working a Graft.
The mayor's veto of the resolution raising the salaries of the general manager and secretary of the water works was unanimously overridden by the Atlanta city council Monday afternoon.
The veto message was of considerable length, and most sensational in its terms, intimating that members of council had been induced by the distribution of official patronage to vote for high salaries.
The message also dealt with public officials who fail to meet financial obligations, a feature which Mayor Woodward promised to deal with fully and frankly in his annual message.
In this he was understood to refer to General Manager Park Woodward of the waterworks and Comptroller J. H. Goldsmith, bottl of whom have recently been through bankruptcy.
Just before the adjournment of council Alderman Holland and Councilmen Patterson and Ellis rose to questions of personal privilege, and said some rather salty things in regard to the former phase of the message. These three members of council had been named as having relatives who had recently been given jobs at the city hall.
CHAUNCEY'S BAD MEMORY.
Senator Could Not Recall Name of "Friend Up the River."
Testimony by Senator Chauncey Depew, during which he could not recall who was the "friend up the river" mentioned in letters written to Mr. Depew by John A. Nichols, was the feature of the hearing before the legislative insurance investigating committee at New York Friday.
The senator's knowledge was rather limited, and many of the expenditures and signers of vouchers he had never heard of.

COMMEND DR. BRADLEY.
Views and Teachings of Beloved Divine Fully Approved and Loving Cup Presented.
Trinity church at Atlanta and the men and women of other churches, and of no church, who have known and loved Rev. H. S. Bradley, said goodbye to him Tuesday night.
Resolutions indorsing every utterance he ever made from the pulpit of Trinity were adopted by acclamation, and previous to their adoption were commended in the strongest terms by a dozen or more members of his own and other Methodist churches.
B. V. Carter, a member of the Park Street Methodist church, asked permission to discuss the resolutions, and on taking the floor delivered a strong phillipic against the ministers who have sought to have Dr. Bradley tried for heresy. He was frequently interrupted by applause.
Two members of Grace Methodist church, of which Dr. Jenkins is pastor, who has been reported as hostile to Dr. Bradley's teachings, also indorsed the resolutions. They were Colonel W. S. Thompson, the well known attorney, and W. J. Campbell, city clerk.
A beautiful silver loving cup was presented Dr. Bradley after the adoption of the resolutions, and then for over an hour he shook hands and said boudybe to the throng of frienus who crowded about him.
Preceded by laudatory preambles setting forth Dr. Bradley's signal ability and successful pastorate of Trinity church, the resolutions adopted were as follows:
"First, That we most earnestly protest against any interpretation of our standards of Methodism as would bar from our pupit a scholar so profound, a preacher so helpful and forceful, a Christian so blameless in character, a man so sincere and true as H. S. Bradley.
"Second, That we fully indorse Dr. Bradley's ministry and teaching for the past four years, and commend him to the church at St. Louis as a preacher splendidly equipped in heart and mind, fearless in his advocacy of the truth, and one who will bring to them, as he has brought to us, a vital, living message, full of 'peace on earth and good will to men.'"
"Third, That a copy of these resolutions be given to Dr. Bradley, a copy to Bishop Duncan, and that a copy be sent to the chairman of the board of stewards-of St. John church, St. Louis."
MANY PROMINENT MEN PRESENT
At 137th Annual Banquet of New York Chamber of Commerce. The New York chamber of commerce held its one hundred and thirty-seventh banquet Tuesday night in Delmonico's. Morris K. Jesup, president of the chamber, presided. The first toast of the evening was to the president of the United States, and this was followed by a toast to the king of England. Then followed the toast, "England and America," to which Mr. Choate responded. Governor Montague of Virginia spoke to the toast of "Our United Country," and President Alderman to the toast of "The Making of a National Spirit."
FOUR MEN BLOW TO ATOMS.
Death Dealt by Explosion at Smoke- less Powder Mill. Four men were blown to pieces at South River, N. J., Tuesday afternoon by an explosion at the laboratory of the International Powder and Chemical company. What caused the explosion will never be known, as only the four men were in the building at the time of the accident.
Treaty Exchange Delayed.
The date for the exchange of ratified treaties between Russia and Japan, which was set for Wednesday, has been postponed, as it was found that arrangements could not be completed. The time has not been set.
ALMOST EXTERMINATED FAMILY

At Dayton, O., Saturday, Coronel Walter L. Kline, rendered a verdict of guilty in the case of Dr. Oliver Crook Haugh, charged with the murder of his father, his mother and his brother, Jesse. The coroner said, in reference to the verdict;
"I believe the officials of Montgomery county have to deal with a criminal whose cunning and gendish desires have seldom been equaled in this country."
COTTON SKYWARD
Prices Soar on Publication of Census Bureau Report.
CROP FIGURES SHORTER
Amount Ginned to November 14 is
Placed at 7,498,167 Bales—Excitement on the New York
and New Orleans Boards.
At Washington Tuesday the census
bureau issued a bulletin placing the
amount of cotton ginned to November
14 at 7,498,167 bales.
In 1904 the product of the ginnerles
up to November 14 was 9,786,656 and
in 1903 6,815,162 bales.
The total crop of 1904 was 13,451,
337 bales and of 1903 9,819,969 bales.
In 1904 about 73 per cent of the
cotton had been ginned to November
14 and in 1903 about 69 1-2 per cent.
The production by bales for the
present year by states is as follows:
Price Soars Skyward
On the exchange in New York, there was a wild bull movement in cotton following the giving out of the ginners' report. The May option advanced 97 points, or almost a cent a pound, in a few minutes. There was a jump of 40 points between two sales.
There was an excited scene on the floor of the exchange, as the brokers fought one another to buy. Estimates as to the showing of the report had averaged close to eight million bales, and when the actual figures were published showing 7,498,167 bales ginned to November 14, the rush to buy followed.
New high records for the season were soon made. The confusion was so great that the different prices were being quoted at the same time, at different points around the rings in some instances there were gains of 10 to 20 points between sales.
Before the advance was checked March sold at 11.76 and May at 11.06 or 10 to 20 points above the low level of Tuesday, and about 10 to 20 points above the previous high level of season of November.
Joseph H. Healey was a leader of the movement which caused the staple to leap $5 a bale within five minutes, adding $50,000,00 to the value of total years' crop. Healey is said to have made about $8,000,000. He controls personally 200,000 bales of "spot" cotton now in New York.
Daniel J. Sully, who was at first reported to have regained his position as king of the cotton market, lost sensationally two years ago, was suddenly found on the bear side of Wednesday's market. It was discovered that he made a shift from the bull to the bear side two weeks ago.
Excitement at New Orleans.
With the ginners' report coming like a bolt from a clear sky, marked the most exciting day of the year in the New Orleans cotton market. From the lowest to the highest the range in prices throughout the active future positions ran as high as 105 points and the net gain over Tuesday's closing after the satisfied longs had taken profits was from '87 to 89 points, or from $4.35 to $4.45 a bale. Scenes of indescribable excitement pervaded the ring as the wild bull movement sent prices skyward.
Nearly every bull looked for a report of 8,000,000 and few of them were supporting the market, except with cotton they had bought below 10 cents. With the reading of the report, the ring became immediately a frenzled mass of howling brokers.
The greatest amount of money made in the present rise is credited to the country buyers from the outside. The professionals made little on the day. In the opinion of well-informed cotton men it will be difficult to purchase spots from this time on at less than 12 cents per pound in the interior, and a tremendously exciting day ended with the beloft pretty general that the prospect of a crop equaling the consumption was no longer to be looked for,
OVER HUNDRED PERISH
In Sinking, Steamer Hilda Which
*Struck on Rocks Off the French
Coast and Was Wrecked.
A London special says: The cross-
channel steamer, Hilda, from South-
ampton for St. Malo, struck a rock
and sank off the French coast Sunday
morning. One hundred and twenty-
three lives were lost. Six persons
were saved.
The Hilda left Southampton Friday
night for St. Malo with considerably
more than one hundred souls on
board. Her passage was greatly delayed
by*a* fog in the channel, and
when nearing St. Malo, she ran into
a severe snow storm, apparently missed
her course and foundered on the
rocks off Jardin light house, three
miles from St. Malo.
The company's steamer Ada, outbound from St. Malo, rescued five of the passengers and one of the crew. The Hilda was built at Glasgow in 1862 and registered 848 tons. She was a screw steamer of iron construction, 225 feet in length. The Southwestern Railway company is as yet unable to give a list of the Hilda's passengers, nearly all of whom were Frenchmen, but they say that a score booked passage at stations between London and Southampton, and that, to the best of their knowledge and belief, nine of these were drowned and only six saved. The company is still without reliable details as to how the disaster happened.
GINNERS' COTTON REPORT.
Summary Indicates Crop for the Year is 9,459.79 Bales.
The cotton report of the National Ginners' Association was made public at Dallas, Texas, Sunday, one day sooner than intended. The reason, Secretary Blackwell said, was because a portion of the report had "leaked." He did not know how this had happened, he said. The summary of reports show that there has been ginned to November 15, 1905, total 7,411,359.
The crop is 84.7 per cent picked and 73 per cent ginned, indicating crop for this year of 9,459,793. Following is the estimate of the total crop by states:
Alabama 1,141,854 bales; Arkansas 446,880; Florida 78,140; Georgia I. 577,379; Indian Territory 262,911; Kentucky 1,560; Louisiana 530,868; Mississippi 1,097,000; Missouri 37,190; North Carolina 563,307; Oklahoma 266,480; South Carolina 999,367; Tennessee 243,070; Texas 2,205,424; Virginia 15,320. Total, 9,459,793 bales.
AN UNPARALLELED FUNERAL
Mass of Steel, Containing Remains of Two Men, Buried with Church Rites.
A funeral without a parallel in Philadelphia took place Sunday at the Milvale steel works, where a 40-ton ingot of steel permeated with the flesh, blood and bones of two workmen, was buried with solemn church rites.
The workmen, who were so strangely laid away, were John Forkin and Joseph Gazda, two foreign speaking laborers, who met a horrible death a month ago.
They were in a pit near a cupola containing many tons of molten metal. A plug gave way and 80,000 pounds of the fiery fluid poured from the cupola and overwhelmed them. The men were completely incinerated, and not a trace of themselves or their clothing was left.

Crew of a Torpedo Boat Meet Death in Collision at Kiel.
A special from Kiel says: Torpedo boat "S126" collided Sunday night near Buelk with the small cruiser Undine. The torpedo boat sank and one officer and thirty-two seamen are missing.
The disaster occurred during the maneuvers in Kiel Bay. A torpedo boat division was making a regulation attack upon the Undine which had blinded her lights.

Albert Farrar, accused of illegal voting in New York's contested mayoralty election, confessed in court Friday, that he came to vote from Utica, N. Y.
He said that he was brought to New York city to vote the republican ticket and that a republican-district leader introduced him in political circles as his son. Farrar said he was paid $10 for his vote.

A SEA LEVEL CANAL
Decided Upon By Commission After Long Study.
Plan Selected Will, Call for More Money and Longer Time for Construction, But Benefits Will Be Greater.
A Washington special says: The board of consulting engineers of the Isthmian canal commission at Saturday's meeting, by a vote of eight to five, declared itself in favor of a sea level canal.
The conclusion was reached after a long and careful study of the project. Since the beginning of September the board had held meetings and in special sub-committees had studied the plans for a sea level and a lock canal with the greatest care. A trip to the isthmus was made to enable the members to form a better idea of the mechanical difficulties which had to be considered. The members of the board are men of the greatest reputation in their line of work. France, Germany and Holland sent their most eminent specialists at the request of the American government.
From the beginning it was evident that a majority of the members were in favor of the sea level canal. Their point of view was that, even if it cost more than a lock canal and would take longer in the building, it would ultimately be of greater use, as it will enable ships to make a much shorter trip than if they were obliged to go through three or four locks. On the other hand, there was a minority which wanted to see the canal built in as short a time as possible, and with the least cost, declaring that a few hours longer for the trip through the isthmus made little or no difference.
One of the members gave this explanation for his way of voting: "It may be that several of us will not see the sea level canal finished in our life time, as it will take considerably longer than ten years. But if we have the satisfaction to know that for all the generations to follow we have made the shortest and most practical way of communication between the Pacific and the Atlantic and as long as we had to decide one question for all eternity, we do not think that a few years more or less would make a very important difference. That is the way our party thought about it and whatever we may have said in favor or against it, we have, after the most careful consideration, given an opinion as we saw our way to do it."
No official statement will be given out before the report of the commission reaches President Rosevelt, which will be about January.
The decision was reached at noon Saturday and thereby the board practically concluded its labors. There will be a few more meetings simply to deal with small details and to put into permanent forms the results of the board's protracted meetings. The foreign delegates desire to leave for their homes by the 27th instant.
However, there are two more important steps, at either of which there may be great changes proposed, for the commission must pass the plans and its own recommendations to the president, who, in turn, must stamp them at his own approval or disapproval, and forward them to congress, which, after all, will be the court of last resort as between the sea level and lock canal projects; simply through the fact that additional legislation will be necessary if a sea level canal is to be built, will cost from $75,000,000 to $100,000,000 more than the cheapest practical lock canal, and will consume from five to seven years more in the construction.

Lady Suffered Tortures Until Custicura
Cuticura—Scratched Day and Night
"My scalp was covered with little piles and I suffered tortures from the ing. I was scratching all day, and naked and I could get no rest. I washed head with hot water and Cuticura Soap and then applied the Cuticura Qintique and a dressing. One box of the ointment and one cake of Cuticura Soap cured me. Now my head is entirely clear and my hair is growing splendidly. I have used Cuticura Soap ever and shall never be without it. (Signed) Ada C. Smith, 369 Grand St. Jersey City, N.J."

Profitable Session.
The Gonvention of the Congrega-
tional Churches that was held in
‘this city last week at the First Con-
gregational Church was well attend-
ed, interesting and profitable.
The program waa fall of gootl
things from beginning to end. The
various subjects, upon which
addresses were made, papers read
and discussed, were practicable ones
the effected every day church and
public life. All of them were
ably presented,
One of the main features of the
session was the council called to
pass upon the calling of Rev. W. L.
Oasb, to the pastorate of the First
Congregational Church, city. The
council held-.its session Satarday
afternoon with Rev. Geo. W. Moore,
as moderator. »Rev. Cash, was plied
with theological and other questions
bearing upon church gevernment,
many of them being of the most
intricate and technical kind. He
was rasped with questions for about
an hoor and abalf. All of these
questions were answered in a straight
forward and easy manner; whioh
immediately impressed not only the
members of the council, but those
who were fortunate to be present.
The examination of Rev. Cash,
slong with the excellent aervice that
he has already rendered this church
nas proven him to be an excep-
‘tionally able christian? gentleman,
versed in thepracticableness of life
and the intricacies‘of his calling,
He bas prepared himself well for
his life's work. As a student at
Fisk University he had the full
confidence off the teachers and
students and proven himself in a
commendable manner.¢ He gradu-
ated with honors, From there he
attended the seminary at Oberlin,
Ohio, where he had as instructors,
some of the greatest minds in this
country. Rev. Cash graduated there
in May last and accepted the call to
supply this church for sx months,
He created such a pleasant impres-
sion that at the expiration of the
time he was given an indefiuate call
which resulted in the session of the
council that gavé him such a rigid
examination. Sunday afternoon he
was ordainéd and installed as pastor
ofthe church. ‘fhe service was
largely attended. Rev. Geo. W.!
Moore, conducted the service, The:
sermon was preached by Rev. H.
Proctor, and was an able ous. Rey.
W H. Holloway, J. R. McLean, C.:
H. Olairborne, G. S. Haynes, D. J.
Flynn and G.AV. Moore, participated
in the principal’parts of this service,
which was yery impressive, During
the sermon Rey. Proctor took
occasion to highly commend Rev.
Cash for the ability displayed and
thechurch for the excellent selection
of a pastor and expressed 2 hope
of good things for him. Nearly all
of the delegates spoke in a commend-
able manner of the new pastor,
Sunday morning the service of
the church was well attended and the
sermon by Rev. J. P. Sims of
Charleston was well reoelved After
the sermon, communion Was admin-
istered by Reys. Flynn and Proctor.
The closing service waa held at
night when Rev. D. J Flynn read
an excellent paperjon “The World
as seen by Chufchmen.” He spoke
in a feeling‘manner and at times
grew eloquent. Parting words were
then expressed by the delegates who
joined in praising the church for the
pleasant session held. One of the
most remarkable assertions at this
session was made by Rev. Proctor,
who said that among the Uolored
Congregational preachers there can
not be found one who uses intoxi-
cants or toblaccoin anyform. Au’
added and pleasant feature of the ses-
sion was the presence of the futher
of Rey. Cash who isaleoa minister.
He 1s naturally proud of the eleva
tion of his son to the ministry,
‘From the able opening sermon by
Rev. U. H. Olairborne, to the bene-
diction by the moderator, Rey. W. H.
Holloway, the sessions were brim-
ful, of good thonghts and left a
lasting impression of the same.
_Next session will be in: Thomas-
ville and Rey. Oath will preach the
annual sermon.

Church Reorganized.
Reorganized after ten years trying to
exist a5 a church, the. Mc. Tabor Baptist
church located on Anderson and Reynolds
streets, was re-organized Friday night
Nov. r7th, 1905. Some ten years ago the
the church which Rev, N. H. Whitmire
pastored known as Mt. Tabor located on
‘what was known then as St Jaracs St., but
now is 3tst street. There come some mis-
understanding bétween the officers, pastor
and the land lord through one of the
brothers namely Admiral Edwards, Sr.,
who succeeded in securimg the lease of
the building without the knowledge or the
authority of the church, Bro. Edwards
of course was condemned but still pressed
his claim that he was boss, He was ex-
pelled from the church and those who took
2 part with hint. The church then voted
unanimously t6 move from that location
to the place ‘which had beenjsecured_across
the rail road'on Andersoa ‘and Reynolds
streets, and remaiied in that place for
seven years until decided to buy and build
on Henry and East’Broad streets. Bro
Edwards took the building which we left
‘with a few expelled members: like himself
and called itthe church. They did every
thing ia their power to succeed, efter
calling a number of pastors. Their at-
tempts seemed to fail, until recently. God
saw fit to Send a man, namely, Bro Bfoses
Battles who-was a licentlate preacher of
the First African Baptist church of which
Dr. Carr is now pastor, This brother
received the callto the pastorate of said
church and standing a creditable examina-
ton was ordained jas a minister of the
gospel. He seemed to have understood the
situation of the church and begun at once
to change the order of things and got them
to decide to be reorganized. A council
was held todo the work. At the time ap-
pointed for this council Revs: J. W. Carr,
D. D., Whitmire and Moses Battles were
present After devotional exercises "Dr,
Carr was chosen chairman of the council
and Bro, N. H. Whitmire, Secretary and
after some explanations from the chairman
a motion was passed then that they would
disband'for the purpose of being reorgan-
ized. They adopted the name to be knowa
as the Macedonia Baptist church.JAfter the
adoption of the name ina usual way the
covenant and articles of faith were read.
Bro. Moses Battles, thelr former pastor,
with their deacons were re-elected and the
hand of fellowship was given them by the
members of the council. The writer assur-
ed them in’ shor speech they had his
heartiest cooperation and influence for
their success. Dr, Carr ia his usual wav
gave them an admirable lecture and many
good advices which they seemed to enjoy
with the greatest of pleasure. Bro. Jno.
Bird was called upon to a word, he grew
quite eloquent in his remarks. Dr. Carr
prayed a soul stirridg prayerfor the success
Of the pastor and members. ‘The {pastor,
Rev, Moses Battles made the closing re-
marks and returned many thanks to the
council for what they had done also a vote
of thanks was given the council on the
part of thé church, A collection was called
for and benediction was pronounced by
Rev. Dr. Carr and thus ended the organi-
zation, = *

The Garrison Pledge of the
Niagara Movement.
Sowing 2 memory Of tat great anc
good mau, William Lloyd Garrison, I, a
member of the race for whom he worked
and in whow he believed, do tonsecrate
myself to the realization of that great ideal
of human liberty which ever guided and
inspired bim.
Vhereby pledge myself to fight tor free-
dom—freédom of speech; freedom of
thought, freedom td enjoy public conven-
fences, and freedom to associate with those
who wish to associate with me.
| propose to enter this great battle with
head up like a man, saying as he said :
“Twill be as harsh as truth and uncom-
promising as justice.”” :
“My reliance for the deliverance of the
oppressed universally is updn the nature
of man, the inherent wrungfulness of op-
pression, the power of trath, and the om
nipotence of God.” My cause is a holy
cause : 3
“Opposition cannot weary it out, force
cannot put it down, fire cannot consume it.
It is the spirit of Uesus who sent us to
bind up the broken hearted, to proclaim
liberty to the captives and the ‘opening of
the prison to them that are bound ; to pro-
claim the acceptible year of the Lord and
the day of vengence of our God. Its prin-
ciples are self evident, its measures ration
al, its purposes merciful and just. It can-
not be diverted from’ the path of duty,
though all earth and hell oppose.”
Iwill remember that “The success of
any great moral enterprise does not de-
pend upon numbers,” and that “It is pos-
sible that a people may bear the title of
freemen and execute the, word of slaves,”
Therefore: *
“T solicit no man's praise.”
“I fear no man's censure.””
“Our trust for victory is solely in God.
We may be personally defeated, but our
Principles never !””
“Tam in earnest.” _

ONG, long ago, there was The Rock. It lay in the scallow Mud Flats of the Bay, looking out across the ocean and Waited for What was Coming. When it last it came The Rock remained Cold and Unsmiting. It knew its Own Worth. This was in December, 1620. Then the Pilgrims landed and Took the Rock and called it Theirs. They did not build a fence Around it the First Season, for they had Something Else to Do beside Knocking off Pieces of it to keep in their Writing desks for paper weights and Curios. There were One Hundred One Pilgrims and the baby, Perigination White, who came on board so late that he didn't have to Pay any Passage Money.

sides, Governor Carver said he was a man of Peace, and there was No Proof that the Dutch had agreed to Put up Boodle for Jones if he landed the Pilgrims outside Manhattan Colony Limits. Somehow, The Rock wasn't Up to Date as a place for Houseskeeping, and the Log houses the Pilgrims built didn't have Furnaces and Modern Conveniences enough to suit Jones, though he got into Hot and Cold Water whenever he met Standish, so he sailed away with the Shipsowners for England.
Then the Young Wives and the little children, Even some Strong Men, and the gentle Governor Carver Ate less and less each day. Often not at all. But the Less They Ate the More they Prayed, Singing weakly, "I'm a Pilgrim, I'm a Stranger, I can Tarry, I can Tarry but A Night." And One by One they set off on a Longer Journey Alone.
In the spring there were so many widowers and bachelors that the women were not Tempted to waste Time and money in Matrimonial Agencies, but only had to Decide Whom they would Condescend to Marry.
This Deciding Things troubled Priscilla Molines. Priscilla was the French
Mald. She Laughed a Great Deal, for her Teeth were Small and even as a Squirrel's. She was the Best Cook in Plymouth Colony, and she could Shrug her Shoulders and look out of the Tail of her Eye at a Man. Other girls said she had Red Hair.
One day Governor Bradford took the Little Captain by the Buttionhole. Said he: "Myles, I'm going to talk to you like a Dutch Uncle. You Ought to Marry. It is your duty to the Commonwealth to Become a Family Man." Standish wagged his, Red Beard. "Oh, Come Off, Will Bradford," says he, "I'm in shape to Blow the Heads off of the Indians for you, but don't say Marry to me." But Bradford Kent on saving it.
Next day Standish walked out to the green Wheat Field on the hillside. Rose Standish slept beneath it with Fifty others on the Colony. Then he thought at Prisella Molines and the way she Laughed at the Men. Myles Standish Groaned. Then he Thought Out a Pretty Plan. There was John Alden. John was a big, soft-hearted Strawberry Blonde. Prisilla Looked at him Frequently, but he Never said Anything. John and the Captain lived together. Myles wasn't much for Size, but he Didn't have his red beard for Nothing, and he Bossed John. John would do anything for him. Myles went home and he said: "John go and tell Prisella Molines that I am Ready to Marry her."
John nearly Fell to Pieces. He had been trying for a Month to get his Grit up and ask her for Himself. He Gulped twice and said: "Yes, sir." He Jammed his hands into his Hip pockets and Started to the Elder's house. He Forgot his Hat.
Priscilla was Spinning. She asked Were the Savages Courting? He said he did not Know, he Hoped so, and that Myles Standish was Ready to Marry Her.
Priscilla's eyes looked Dangerous, and she said Something in French. John could not Understand it, so he Began to Explain. The Captain was Too Busy to go Courting, so he went

him.
Priscilla said she did not Like little Men, and there could be too much Red Hair In One Family.
John felt Better and told her how Kind and Honorable and Brave and Gentle and generally Elegant the Captain was, until Priscilla's Thread got Tangled up. She took a Step Toward John. She Tipped up One Shoulder and looked Down at him from the Corner of her Eye. Her lips were Red, "Why don't you Speak for Yourself, John?" she said. Then John Took a few Steps and her Thread Broke and She Ran away.
But Myles Standish was Mad Clear Through.
Well, the Pilgrims Worried through the Summer, though there was Plenty of Nothing but Prayer and Privation.
"All Fasting and no Feasting makes me Weary," said Governor Bradford, so after the Harvest, in November, he Ordered a Week of Feasting and Thanksgiving. Massasoit and Ninety Braves were. Invited, just to show them that the White Men Forgave the Indians for Living.
The Indians came early and Brought their Appetites. Most of the Pilgrims were in Bed. Massasoit did not Ring the Doorbells. He merely gave a few
Playful Warwhcops and his braves did the Rest. The Pilgrims Got Up. "A Dog does not Bite the Hand that Feeds him," said the governor. "Fly around gills, and got Breakfast." This was the Pilgrim of Born.
When the Guests Left the table there wasn't Anything else left except the Dishes, and not having Pockets, MassaSoil and his Braves did not Carry Away the Spoons as Souvenirs. Next Captain Shindish had his Innings. The Captain Played in Great Form. He marched his Army of Nineteen Men down the fort by Twos

and Threes and Fours. They made Hollow squares and Every Old. Thing he could think of. They Blazed away with the Cannon on Top of the Fort, and the cannon on the Hill. Then they All fired together into the air. At this Time Massasoit decided that it would be a Good Plan to go deer Hunting. So he and his Braves Went. Priscilla sang," I Don't Care If They Never Come Back," but they did, and brought Deer and Turkeys and Oysters by the Bushel. Priscilla Bossed the other women and John Alden and they Cooked and Cooked, and the Men Ate and ate, just as they do Now, for Three Days.
When Captain Standish saw John Alden bringing Wood and Water for Priscilla, and Opening oyster shells and Standing Close by Her, and heard her Singing, he turned and looked at the Wheat Standing Untouched on the Hillside. Then he went up into the little for' and Cleaned up the Guns, saying to Himself, "Well, what's the Difference? My Sword is a Good

OF INTEREST TO WOMEN
DRESSING FOR THE FAMILY.
It is a fine tribute to a woman when a man can say of his wife what one man was heard to say: "I always think of my wife as a morning glory; she looks so bright and pretty at the breakfast table." It pays wives and mothers and sons and daughters to be careful of the morning toilet. The first impression is likely to be lasting; so greet every one in the morning looking fresh, sweet and attractive.
In this day and age there is no excuse for women appearing before their families in soiled and unattractive morning costume. Dainty materials may be had so reasonably. "A little lace and ribbon lends the dainty and sheer appearance which gives the inviting touch, and apron and sleeve protectors insure cleanliness, if preparing breakfast must be taken into consideration. These may be slipped off during the meal hour, and self-respect is sustained and also the admiration of the home's dearest and best.—Indianapolis News.
COATS AND WRAPS.
A long loose coat on the ulster order has lately come into favor, and it is made up in cloth or chevot; while loose fitting, the lines of the figure are more indicated than in the absolutely shapeless styles that have been fashionable, and consequently the garment looks decidedly smarter. It has much more fulness around the skirts than had the old time ulster, a most necessary style when the present width of skirt is taken into consideration.
There are many light gray, tan, bule, and red coats built on these lines, and there are also several smart shapes in black, while in the medium length garment that is a combination of coat and wrap are several most attractive models. While wraps and coats are worn in the evening, and are made, as a rule, of white cloth, either on rather severe lines or elaborately trimmed with heavy lace, the long coat is smarter-than the sort for the moment, but there is a rather long medium length shape that is exceedingly smart and has good lines.—Harper's Bazar.
GOLDEN ANKLETS FOR SOCIETY.
Anklets! Is there any limit to the conceits of society girls? Apparently not, for—whisper it in the shades of the sheltering palm—the newest in hidden ornaments is a band of gold, beaten to the thinness of writing paper, about the ankle, and it is said hundreds of young women already have adopted the fad. Gladys Vanderbilt is a pioneer of the cult—for cult it is, of a kind. It appears the anklet is supposed to ward off the state of spinsterhood and many other things. Women of fashion in London say the yellow hoops is a sovereign charm against no less prosasic an aliment than gont—as if any bright Yankee lass, lash to the purple though she be, need worry her fair head on that score! Undoubtedly, if an enterprising jeweler got out a tallman against jungle fever, New York girls, would wear it. Miss Vanderbilt's, it is reported, bears a mysterious hieroglyph copied from a tomb of the Pharaohs. The anklet, of course, is concealed by the stocking, and it is so thin that only an experienced boulevardier could be expected to detect it at monocle range. Will the golden collar of the Saxon thrall be society's next plaything?
WELL GROOMED WOMEN.
Care of your clothes will stamp your innate neatness. Half the garments that look shabby are not worn out, but are merely never properly cared for. If you hang it up when not in use or fold it you probably do it badly. To learn how to suspend garments to the best advantage observe the way shop-keepers handle them. A supply of coat hangers may be had cheap, but remember that hanging does only for heavy fabrics. Light garments should be folded in order to avoid stringiness. Skirt bags are a luxury, but may be made easily of great square sacks of white cotton, longer than the skirts and slipped over without crushing. If one would supply fragrance and freshness to the skirt suspend a sachet in the centre, says an exchange.
When taken off the skirt should be brushed and the silk lining well wiped with a dry cloth. Clothes should not be hung around on chairs, but should be disposed of immediately. Shoes are preserved in shape and crash and break far less if they have boot trees for their protection. It is a matter of economy to keep several pairs of shoes in use at once. When worn intermittently they do not have a chance to dry out, and consequently become rotten, and it is at the same time better for the feet to experience a change of shoe. Oil should be employed to remove soil and water should never be used. Slippers should be stuffed with paper.—Rochester Post-Express.
BE A HELPFUL DAUGHTER
The daughter at home may make sunshine in the house if she is willing to work for the pleasure of others. Most girls, if they are not entirely selfish, are anxious to lift some of the burden from their mother's shoulders, and if they are the right kind of girls they will be over watchful for life.
things they are capable of doing, instead of being asked each time. To be of use anywhere in the world, one must be quick to notice what is wanted. This is so in the home. Without that "Lamb-led-to-the-slaughter" manner the daughter should see, be willing to see, and anxious to improve, the room that needs dusting, the flowers that need rearranging, the curtain that has lost a ring and is, therefore, dropping, the pillow that is ripped on one side, and the many other little things about the house that need attention. If the daughter is the kind that needs constant supervision; if she does a thing one day and neglects it the next and is not willing to do things pleasantly, the mother is probably better off without her attempted assistance. There is a definite day and a definite time and a definite place for all things.
Immediately after breakfast is the time to begin the day's work and an excellent time to stop is when the day's tasks are completed.
But when you sit down for "just a minute" to do this and "two seconds" to do the other thing, the morning slides away and the descending sun sinks to rest and leaves your work undone.—New York Press.
FOR THE HOME DRESSMAKER.
The home dressmaker will find that a few little tricks of the trade are a marvelous aid in making up and altering clothes. There is always a right way and a wrong way of doing even the simplest bit of dressmaking. Here are a few right ways:
Make the under part of a sleeve double, so that it can be darned, as this part wears out sooner than the upper.
Don't forget to do plenty of tackling and pressing. To neglect these two points stamps the garment "home made" at once.
Always shrink a braid before sewing to a skirt; otherwise the bottom of the skirt will become puckered the first time of wearing in a shower of rain.
In shortening a skirt pattern always fold a pleat across the middle of the pattern; never shorten from the top or bottom of the skirt, or the shape will be spoiled.
Home dressmakers who have difficulty in pressing curved scans will find a rolling pin a very good pressing board, if a clean cloth be wrapped around it.
When putting steel or whalebone into a bodice, bend them slightly at the waist before putting into casing. You will find the bodice fit to the figure much better.
When using a sewing machine, the best way to finish off neatly and firmly is to turn the work around and back again a short way, so that the stitches will be double.
When new evening gowns are few and far between, nothing is so useful as either black or white, which by change of flowers or trimming may be altered out of all knowledge.
When putting on a collar, make neck of bodice or blouse slightly smaller than base of collar band, and notch bodice here and there while putting collar on. By so doing you avoid wrinkles.
When cutting out sleeves, to avoid the disaster of cutting both for the same arm, fold the material either face to face or back to back. Place pattern on it and cut both together. A proper pair is bound to be the result.
If you wish to make a walking skirt just to clear the ground without looking too short, adopt the following plan: Measure the person from the waist to the ground, then deduct one and a half inches.—Rochester Post-Express.
Evening coats promise no end of changes. Everything about them, it is said, will be different.
Covert cloth makes hosts of separate jackets and coats, and whole suits as well.
In broadcloths, white most of all will be used, but gray—that exquisite shade known as "silver"—will be popular, and a soft, pale blue.
The new herringbone suitings are stunning, especially those of gray.
Gray covert cloth is gaining ground steadily.
All velvets are strong—even to velvet ribbon.
Mohair have taken a vigorous new lease of life for shirt waist suits.
Velveteen is struggling back, mostly in blue, black and green.
But broadcloth promises to be first and foremost for the dressier sort of clothes.
Elbow sleeves are coming in for everything but the more workaday styles of dress.
As a consequence of this interest in broadcloth, new beautiful shades of colors have come out, made still more beautiful by the satin sheen of the finish.
Corded handkerchiefs have developed from the quaint styles with "dimity borders" to styles with cords crossing and recrossing at intervals over the whole handkerchief.
In the presence of the life in accidents on our duty with relief that we contend ever-increasing safety of traction. Year after year passes by, with of the important passenger steer that cross the Atlantic, or other ocean on which passengers travel is, he meeting with an accident that causes risk of life or limb to the passengers. The mail steamers come and go with a regularity approaching that, of the best railroad schedule, and it takes the very fiercest of Atlantic midwinter gales to interfere seriously with this punctuality. The secret of this security is to be found both in the structure of the ship itself, and in the marvelously ingenious devices which science and invention have placed at the service of the navigator to guide him in the more perilous phases of his duty.
The submarine signalling is a close rival of the wireless telegraph in the great increase that it has made in the safety of travel on the sea. One receiver is placed on each side of the ship, with separate wires from earl, and by the use of telephones the officer is able to hear a bell that is being struck at a point many miles distant from the ship, and determine its direction. The officer of the Kalser Wilhelm der Grosse states that on the last trip over, when the ship was four miles distant from the mouth of the Ryer Weser he plainly made out the signals conveyed from the lightship there. Furthermore, as the vessel neared Nantucket, and when she was about four miles distant from the lightship, he heard through the telephone the signal "65". This consists of six strokes of the bell, which is the Nantucket Lightship code signal. At about the same distance from Fire Island light and from Sandy Hook Lightship, the respective signals were distinctly audible. The value of this device in preventing collision between, approaching ships is evident, for it has this advantage over the foghorn, that the direction of the approaching vessel, whether from port or starboard, is determined at once by the fact that the sounds are audible to the port or starboard telephone.—Scientific American.
A Mighty Voice.
A new method of sending a mighty voice across the sea involves the use of a diaphragm which is made to vibrate by electricity. To this are attached two huge megaphones which emit a deafening roar that can be heard for many miles. The machine goes by clockwork, and when wound up attends to business for weeks without requiring further attention. A dynamic furnishes the requisite current. The terrible blast that bursts from the gaping mouths of the twin horns, each of which is fifteen feet long, can be heard above the noise of the flierest gale. It literally shatters the air. Once started, this voiciferous guardian does night and day, and never goes to sleep. It is designed specially for use on points of rocks where bell buoys and whistling buoys are inadequate by reason of the fact that the noises made are drowned by the roar of the surf.
Electric traction Wins.
Since the World's Fair test in Chicago, when a steam engine in a ring of war contest succeeded in dragging an electric locomotive back, the development of the latter has steadily progressed until it has reached a stage where the electric locomotive assures superlority. It has been so greatly increased in size, weight and power that recent tests prove it to be more than able to hold its own. Between a specially selected Pacific type steam passenger engine and the latest model of electric locomotive the latter came out well ahead in all of the trial runs. In addition to the weight of the trains behind the locomotives was fifty tons greater for the electric factor than for its competitor, although the greater weight of the steam locomotive made the total weight of the trains approximately equal.
Cotton From Fine Wood.
Recent experiments have been made in Bavaria in regard to preparing artificial cotton from pine wood, and it is said that the new process allows it to be made cheaply enough, so that the artificial cotton may compete with the natural product. The wood, which is first cut into small splinters, is reduced to fibers by steam and acids, then it is washed, bleached and passed through a crusher. The cellulose is formed into fine threads by a spinning machine. These threads are said to make a very good fabric when woven, and can easily be dyed. It is expected that they will be manufactured on a large scale and come into competition with imported cotton.
Life in an English Village.
This indulgence of the English village as it exists to-day appeared in a prominent London newspaper. The English village is remarkable for its imperfect drainage, contaminated walls and bad lighting, the impractical learning of its children, the vice condoned with its public houses and the more or less entire absence of cottage, hospital, reading rooms, clubs, bath, or wash-house, flower show, telephone, often times its telegraph, and all that makes life enjoyable and healthy.

The French Government has made experiments in its village, in the cultivation of coffee.
Beards Make Only Fair-Disguises—Mouth by the Worst Feature of Offenders—Remarkable Instances From Scotland Yard Records.
ATURE has gifted the ordinary male criminal with in very effectual disguise as regards his mouth and the lower part of his face in the mustache and beard, and he takes full advantage of it. The transformations of the professional wrongdoer's lower countenance are often marvelous, says London Answers. The mouths of "wanted" people, unless they are women, are seldom given a line in police descriptions, and instead we find: "Generally wears a heavy brown mustache," "affects drooping mustache," "full dark beard," or "mustache and whiskers."
By shaving or allowing the hair on his face to grow the sought for individual used once to be able to secure a considerable safety from recognition, but it affords him little now. The detective's scientifically trained eyes have learned to study just those parts of the face which are most permanent, and which no ingenuity can alter. "The mouth and the parts around it are commonly supposed by inexperienced criminals to afford them the most excellent facilities for cheating us," said Williamson, the head of Scotland Yard. "That is what often makes the foolish fellows actually throw away their money in purchasing false mustaches and beards and things. If you doubt the effect of wearing a false mustache buy one, and go out in it and see the result. You will discover it very quickly. It will attract attention to you very disagreeably."
Lefroy, when he fled and the police were hunting for him for the murder of Mr. Gold, was found when captured to have a false mustache in his possession.
The latest attempted disguise by means of a false mustache was the idea of a woman who transformed herself into a man while traveling in an empty railway carriage, she having previously supplied herself with the necessary male clothes. In order that the disguise should be complete she put on a little black mustache. She decided, to throw off possible pursuers, to alight at a station considerably in advance of that to which she had taken a ticket, and while explaining to the ticket collector how it was she had determined to break her journey there the mustache fell off. It was a fearful shock to the railway official's nerves, who did not, naturally, forget to mention the extraordinary passenger to all he met. The lady was in custody almost immediately.
Where the criminal's mouth is observable it is frequently a remarkable feature. Deeming's mouth saved the life of one of the women he had marked down as a victim. His manners were peculiarly suave and calculated to impress a woman favorably, but his mouth was "too terrible," she told the court, and even when he was saying the most honeyed things to her she could not help looking at it. At last her suspicious obstinacy aroused Deeming's fire, and she had a glimpse of the fearful, straight mouth, set and grim with a sternness that made her avoid him ever after. Lefroy would have been wise to grow a mustache and beard to conceal his mouth. It was a terrible one. But he was too conceited to believe that it was anything but beautiful, and he used to express his wonder at men who "hid their faces behind hair."
"His mouth looked like a hideous steel trap," declared a reporter who attended the trial of Dumollard, the French peasant who, with the aid of his wife, killed some twenty poor girls seeking situations for the sake of their petty belongings. It was a remarkable mouth, and when Dumollard spoke it seemed more terrible than when it was closed, though the voice was smooth, and even agreeable. "It was a mouth whose fitting place seemed to be biting the sawdust of M. Deblier's head basket," said the correspondent.
"What is the matter with the man's mouth," inquired a perplexed London magistrate one day of a prisoner brought before him.
"It's nerves, your worship," declared the accused. "It will keep twitching. I can't keep it still."
The magistrate remanded him, expressing the hope that the medical attendant in the prison might be able to do something for his relief. A suspicious detective in court had considerable doubt respecting the affliction, and he was cruel enough to bring an expert in the silent lip language on the occasion of the prisoner's next appearance. His suspicious were fully justified. The prison doctor had apparently done the poor fellow no good, for his lips worked as energetically as ever. He was sending messages to his pals in court, quite oblivious of the fact that all his words were being taken down in short hand. The dodge played on him led to the recovery of some hundreds of pounds' worth of jewelry that the 'invalid' had misappropriated.
Lap language has been well studied
since then, and no criminal not hope-
edly behind the times would rely
on secrecy to day. It is strange
that reading appears to have been
used in the professional criminal
beef before scientific people
IPS AND TEETH
thought of making use of it as a medium of communication with the dent, and dumb. The wonderful manner in which criminals can communicate with one another by means of the lip movements is well known.
Criminals' teeth are generally good. The amount of dentistry which has to be done in our convict establishments is remarkably small. When the teeth are white their possessors are apt to be inordinately vain of them. In the case of persons convicted of more serious crimes the "dogs'S teeth" are frequently of formidable growth
It remained for an illicit diamond merchant to devise a new use for a set of artificial teeth, which enabled him for a long time to baffle the most expert searchers in South Africa. The man had a very fine set of false bottom teeth, the biggest molars in which were hollow, and which formed excellent receptacles for diamonds. They had been made in New York and were a triumph of nefarious dental mechanism. The abstracted diamond having been placed in the tooth, the bottom was plugged up so as to look like, a part of the ordinary gold mounting, and the proud wearer of the ingenuous set simply laughed in the faces of the searchers. The teeth were examined time after time before the trick was at last discovered. He could carry diamonds worth some thousands of pounds in them.
"A particular lack of height and 'stiffness' in the upper lip is a characteristic of the vast majority of the inmates of our prisons," remarked a chaplain at Wormwood Scrubbs. "The ordinary offender is altogether weak in this direction. The professional and daring offender has just the reverse—long upper lip, lips tightly compressed. Very often they reduce the mouth to a mere straight line.
Another peculiarity that has been noted in criminals is the early appearance of the wrinkles that pass from the base of the nostrils to the extremities of the lips. They appear in ordinary honest people in about one person out of five before they reach twenty-five years of age. In our convict population it has been found that more than fifty per cent, of the convicts under the age of twenty-five have already acquired them.
The mouth is the worst feature of women offenders. It is misshapen, coarse, sensual, or, in the case of female prisoners, is grim and harsh. It was noted in the otherwise beautiful Marchioness de Brinvilliers that while the rest of her face fascinated by its pleasant expression, the mouth never appeared to relax—the lips seemed set, as if hiding some terrible secret behind them.
Ann Cotton, one of the cruelest monsters of modern times, a woman who poisoned twenty-seven persons for trifling insurance sums, bad, on the contrary, a mouth of which the lips were parted, but they revealed teeth set like those of a snarling dog. No woman prisoner of recent years has had a pretty mouth—sweet, and with mobile lips. Even in the case of women swindlers, very frequently in other respects liberally endowed with natural beauty, the mouth is defective—the feature is nothing like so good as it is in the men.
A Silent Woman.
The opposition to the payment of the church tax in Scotland is occasionally relieved by a ray of humor.
Quite recently the Rev. J. Stephenson, president of the Free Church Council, resolved to face a week's incarceration rather than submit to taxation. He had no property which could be distrained upon, and on the form which he received on which to state what he was willing to hand over to be sold he wrote:
"Self."
In the next column, in which, says the London Standard, he was required to state the value of the goods, he inserted:
"Wife won't say."
At the recent annual meeting of the British Medical Association Dr. Theodore B. Hyslop, superintendent of Bethlem Royal Hospital, a specialist in neurology and in the treatment of mental disease, said: "As an alienist and one whose whole life has been concerned with the sufferings of the mind, I would state that of all hygienic measures to counteract disturbed sleep, depressed spirits and all the miserable sequels of a distressed mind, I would undoubtedly give the first place to the simple habit of prayer." The Outlook.
Gas the Cheapest Illuminant
Since the introduction of the incandescent gas burner a new lease of life has been given to gas undertakings, according to the chief engineer of the Manchester (England) gas works. These gas works are owned by the municipality. He says that gas has now been placed in the front row as the cheapest illuminant. The Manchester engineer shows that electricity, light for light, is eight times dearer in Manchester than is gas light. He demonstrated that to produce a light of 1000 candle power it would cost 3.72 cents if gas were used and 301.2 cents if electricity were the illuminant.

At a sale of animals from a hippodrome a tiger was being offered. The highest bid was made by a man who was a stranger, and to him it was knocked down. The owner of the animal, who had been eyeing the stranger uneasily during the bidding, then went up to him and said:
"Pardon me for asking the question, but will you tell me where you are from?"
"From the country," responded the man.
"Are you connected with any show?"
"No."
"And are you buying this animal for yourself?"

few moments, looking alternately at the man and the tiger, evidently trying his best to reconcile the two.
"Now, young man," he finally said,
"you need not take this animal unless you want to, for there are those here who will take it off your hands."
"I don't want to sell," was the quiet reply.
"What on earth are you going to do with such an ugly beast if you have no show of your own and are not huying for someone who is a showman?"
"Well, I'll tell you," said the purchaser.
"My wife died about three weeks ago. We had lived together for ten years, and—and I miss her."
He paused to wipe his eyes and steady his voice, and then added:
"So I've bought the tiger."
"I understand you," said the great showman in a husky voice, as he turned to hide his emotion:—London mite.

Sunday Club.
The club had an address somewhat out of the ordinary last Sunday, by the Rev. Mr. Solomon a native of Egypt, Africa. Rev. Solomon gave several minutes of his talk to tell about the people of Africa and their conditions. He was evidently of the opinion that the native Africans are superior to the American Negro—especially along the lines of honesty and morality. He said that the Negroes in this country will never be treated in every respect as men, but Africa is open to them and should they go to Africa, they would certainly be in a land where they could feel themselves men.
To-morrow, the club will be addressed by one of the strong delegates of the M. E. Conference which has been going on in our city this week. In addition to this address, every true woman of Savannah is invited to be present, at which time a "Ladies Auxiliary" will be organized. We ask your presence ladies! will you favor us with it?

It is a sad but
true fact that
every year
brings an increase in
the number of opera-
nations performed
by our hospitals.
More than three-
fourths of the
patients lying
on those snow
white, beds are women and girls who are awaiting or recovering from operations made necessary by neglect.
Every one of these patients had plenty of warning in that bearing down feeling, pain at the left or right of the womb, nervous exhaustion, pain in the small of the back, leucorrhoea, dizziness, flatulency, displacements of the womb or irregularities. All of these symptoms are indications of an unhealthy condition of the ovaries or womb, and if not heeded the trouble must make heedway until the pelvic mass is removed by damage, inflammation, and a lifetime of impaired usefulness at best, while in many cases the results are fatal.
The following letter should bring hope to suffering women. Miss Luella Adams, of the Colonnade Hotel, Seattle, Wash., writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
"About two years ago I was a great sufferer from a severe female trouble, pains and headaches. The doctor prescribed for meand finally told me that I had a tumor on the comy, and must undergo an operation if I were to wish warrants, but I spent hundreds of dollars for medical help, but the tumor kept growing. Fortunately I corresponded with an aunt in the New England States, and she advised me to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and it was said to cure tumors. Comy, and I was told to improve in health, and I was entirely cured, the tumor disappearing entirely, without an operation. I wish every suffering woman would try this great preparation."
Just as surely as Miss Adams was cured of the troubles enumerated in her letter, just so surely will Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound cure every woman in the land who suffers from womb troubles, inflammation of the ovaries, kidney troubles, nervous excitability and nervous prostration.
Mrs. Pinkham invites all young women who are ill to write her for free advice. Address, Lynn, Miss.

Broadwid Cats
Chief Clock, Samuel Roop, of the Bureau of Police, who is a close student of animal life, relates an incident coming under his personal observation which goes far to prove the reasoning power of the feline tribe. "For several years," said Mr. Roop recently, "a black cat grew sleek and fat in a snug berth at a grocery store, near Twenty-first and Parrish streets. This cat undoubtedly was envied by all the cats in the neighborhood. I make this assertion confidently, because when poor puss was killed by an automobile the other night, a dozen cats suddenly appeared in the vicinity of the grocery store berth. You can be believe it or not, as you like, but every one of those cats was black, and I can only assume that each expected to impersonate the dead feline and step into his shoes, metaphorically speaking, unchallenged. One fellow, a dead ringer for the unfortunate tabby, thrashed all the others, and actually palmed himself off on the storekeeper, who knew nothing about the accident, as the real pet. The grocery man didn't have the heart to fire him out when he learned the truth, and the new cat is waxing as sleek as his predecessor." -Philadelphia Record.
Kitten In a Mall Sack.
One of the queerest packages that a mail clerk ever took in off a mail crane, says the Wheeling Intelligence, was that received by the clerk on the train on the Ohio River Division of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, which leaves Wheeling about 1 o'clock in the morning.
At a little station called Vienna, where a mail sack is taken from a crane, as the train does not stop, the mail clerks the other morning made the regular grab for the mail pouch, and after opening it found that a live kitten had either been put in it by someone or had gotten in accidentally and had been delivered with the mail in that rough way to the car.
An examination of the kitten showed that one of its legs was slightly bruised, otherwise it did not appear to be injured. Since, then it has been making the regular trips in the mail car and the clerks are very much attached to it.

More Than Royal Pomp. Attended the Passing of an Unimportant Young Man. Vance Thompson, in Everybody's Magazine, describes, in "The Rothschild's of France," the pageentry of Bar Arthur Rothschild's funeral.
"The Baron Arthur," says Mr. Thompson, "was a weaker; he was unregarded in his lifetime; the newspapers said he died by his own hand; but his funeral served to illustrate the family magnificence and social power. All traffic was stopped in the main thoroughfares of the city through which the procession passed. For hours the heart of Paris ceased to beat. Business ceased. Trams and buses were arrested. Hour after hour the long funeral crept through the boulevards while Paris looked on in wonder. The same Paris had seen the old poet, Victor Hugo, borne to his grave in a painter's cart. The dead Baron went with medieval pomp, though he was but a nephew of the house. Came first three coaches with the rabbins. Then the hearse, with great plumes, drawn by eight horses in sable cloths. Then the house servants, butlers in white silk stockings; ushers in gilt chains and livery; valets, coachmen, footmen, stable lads; buglers, masters of hounds and horses in pikir; guards, and beaters of the preserves, and, conspicuous, the huntsmen, leading in leash the Baron's favorite hounds—and the hounds leaped in leash and bared; followed, too, his farmers; and the peasants of his fields; and with all went the family, and, in a mile of carriages, the aristocracy of France paid homage; with such pomp, the Baron was taken to his grave; and the earth was laid upon him and he slept.
"Such anecdotes are really documents of the social life of the epoch."
