If IWid say so l was only joking. Everybody o knows me says’ I'm a great kidder. ut more likely Hammerstein's story is hot air. Who's going to roll the next pill?” The foregoing was the reply made half in jest by Delegate Edward M. Block of the Wighth ward to the charge of Dr. Ed- ward Hammerstein, representative of the Twelfth ward, as told exclusively in Fri- day’s Post-Dispatch, that his colleague had divulged a deal whereby those voting for the passage of the Terminal facilities legis- lation were to receive $975 apiece. The House of Delegates met in regular aéasion at 7:30 o'clock Friday night. Dele- gate Block was on hand early, but he had hardly taken off his coat when Speaker Gazzolo called: “Bddie, that’s a rich giggle they have about you in tonight's Post-Dispatch.” “A what?" asked Block, as if stupefied at the remark. “A giggie—a story,” explained Andy. “Don't you know that Doc Hammerstein gaye you were the fellow that wanted to pay him $9757"’ “©, well,” replied Block, “I used to hit tie pipe, myself. They ain't nothing to that giggle, Andy. My conscience is easy.” "I am glad indeed to hear that, Mr. Block,” said the speaker, making a pre- _tentious bow, as he walked away. A few minutes later the House was down ‘business, struggling with weighty prob- | of légisiation. Delegate Block seemed | most perturbed of the 22 members t.

Bill Didn't Pass, and Money Advanced, $700. is Lost by Two Organizations to Adams Street Land Owners. 4 It developed at the City Hall today that the Business Men’s League | and the World’s Fair corporation bought option on property which the Terminal Co. would have required if its bill had passed, and that they were left holding the bag when the House combine killed the bill. Several property owners, most of them members of St. Malachy’s children on the third floor of 301 Convent parsh, are $700 ahead, in the aggregate, for the same reason. Among these are John J. Keely, assistant chief of detectives; Arthur | ther, was arrested Saturday morning. J. Ryan, William Lonergan, Michae! Downes and another man who is al sage of the Terminal bill. They appeared before the committees of the intndbhy with their attorneys and argued that the destruction of the street and the extension of the railroad tracks so close to the homes of themselves or their tenants would work great damage to the value of their premises. The Terminal facilities committees of the Business Men’s League, headed by Elias Michael, and the same committee of the World’s Fair. headed by George W. Parker, heard the objections and concluded they were well founded. Business Men's League both institutions, through their executive committees, au- block. to work to secure the options. Mr. Michael deputized two of the employes of his firm— Mice, Stix & Co.—to gid in the work. They are Messrs. Walsh and Block. The Mr. Block in question is Leon Block, brother of Edward M. Block of the House eof Delegates, and of H. 5. Block, assistant clerk of the House. Hesitated, but Gave Options. Dec. 2 Walsh and Block secured an op- tion on the 40 feet owned by Mr. Lonergan. The option ran for two months. They took Mr. Lonergan to the headquarters of the Business Men's League, where Mr. Michael pald $100 to Lonergan for the option. Then Mr. Lonergan aided in getting the others to give options. Mr. Ryan hesi- tated, but finally did so. So did Mr. Keely, according to Mr. Lonergan, getting $50 for his option. Mr. Downes also gave an option, and so did the clients of Bradley & Quinette. When all the options were secured, the representatives of the terminal facilities committees of the business organizations were In a position to argue for the passage of the bills, the Adams street property owners’ objection being removed. Some of the Adams street property owners joined in urging the passage of the bill. However, the bill did not pass. It was of- ficially buried by the assembly Friday night. Secretary Saunders still has the options, but he says they are worthless now to the organizations he represents. “We have no use for the property, cértainly will not exercise the privilege we have of Duying the Adams street lots. We have just credited up the $700 as terminal facilities expenses and let it go at that.’ “The property owners are $700 ahead on the deal, but we are not complaining. Wwe did what we could to secure the passage of the bill.” The entire transaction is not quite clear to the beneficiuries of the deal. “I did not know Mr. Block, and was surprised when he came to me to get the option,”” Mr. Lonergan told the Post- Dis- patch. “But we all wanted to sell if the terminal was going to came right to our doors, and when he =, to give me the and client of the real estate firm of Bradley & Quinette. The change of ownership in the $700 came about in this way: Lonergan, Ryan, Downes, Keely and yhe others are owners of property on Adams street, from Montrose west one-half block to an alley. | The Terminal bill provided for the turning over of Atlantic street, one block south of Adams, to the railroad company.

He told me! Mr. Michael sent him to me. I don’t know but he took me to him and YOUNG MAN NAMED. BLOCK. Elias Michael, membe#or the executive committee of the Business Men's League, | gave this explanation of the transaction: “In order to prevent the terminal people from being ‘held up,’ I got control of cer- tain property in Atlantic street, which sub- sequently was to be turned over to the terminal association. “We paid less than $100) for the options, which were bought by a young man named Block employed at the Rice-Stix Dry Goods (Co. “The terminal proposed to run along At- lantic street and it was necessary to cut the street through to avoid inconvenience in traffic. We felt that if the property we desired in order to effect this improvement was left in the hands of the owners until after the terminal ordinances passed an exorbitant price would be demanded for it. Accordingly I had Mr. Block secure the options in question and turn them over to the Business Men's League.” Mr. Michaels refused to state Mr. first name. Block's AMOUNT OF OPTIONS. Leon Block, a brother of Edward M. Block of the House of Delegates, told the Post-Dispatch Saturday afternoon that un- der instructions from Mr. Michael and the Business Men's League he did purchase op- tions Dn property which it was known the Terminal Railroad Association would need in the event of the passage of the Terminal improvement bills. Mr. Block's memory fails him as to the amount vf money he spent for these op- tions, but he says William F. Saunders. secretary of the Business Men's League, is familiar with the figures. Mr. Block further declares brother, Delegate Block, knew that his noth*ng He says he did not purposely conceal this information from the delegate, but that the occasion did not arise to tell him of it. Edward M. Block is the member of the FHiouse of Delegates whom Delegate Ham- merstein, in h's interview in the Post-Dis- patch yesterday. accused of leadership in the plan to demand boodle for the passage of the Terminal _rerminal bill.

I got on a Tower Grove car and as I sat down a man who was on the back platform came into the car and told me I was going the wrong way to reach the Planters’. He induced me to leave the car. I walked about half a block with him when he suddenly grabbed me by the arm and tried to get my pockst- heok. In the struggle that followed the man beat me over the head several times with his fists. I finally broke away and ran to the nearest drug store. I do not know just what street it was I got on the car nor where I left it.

Mrs. Burgess gave a little scream and looked at the chain, still wrapped around her finger. Another negro came up to her. “Did that man steal your purse?” asked. “Yes,”’ sald Mrs. Burgess. “T’'ll catch him,” said the negro, and started toward the alley on a run. Mrs. Burgess saw she still had the chain and screamed again. A white man approached from the nortn. “Were you robbed?’’ he asked. “Yes,"’ said Mrs. Burgess. “T saw two negroes at the alley and they seemed to be dividing something," said the man. And he passed on. Another man approached from the west. “Were you robbed?” he asked. ‘Yes,’ said Mrs. Burgess. “I'll telephone for a policeman,” said the man and he went into a drugstore. Mrs. Burgess started back to her home to get mer pr to complete her journey. At Pine street she;met a policeman. “Yes, I've been robbed,”’ she said before the policeman could ask.

His reception was the most brilliant and enthusiastic ever tendered a prelate or civ- flian since long before the American occu- pancy of the islands. The bay and harbor were animated: pictures of bright colors carried ‘by hundreds of boats, large and small, and worn by thousands of the in- habitants of the city and provinces. A magnificent water pageant was the first feature of the landing, the archbishop be- ing met by an imposing flotilla of yachts and excursion boats, lavishly decorated with bunting and nationa! and papal col- ors. By these he was escorted to the land- ing place, amid cheers, the dipping of flags | and the blowing of whistles. An immense shore parade, in which 10,000 grcwn persons and 5000 children, gathered from all the Catholic pafishes and societies within the archiepiscopal jurisdiction, was the most impesing civil parade ever seen here. The shops, churches and dwellings gienat it the line of march were gaily decorated, and cheers for the new archbishop, the first American to rule the Catholic Church In the Philippines, were frequent and vociferous.

NEW YORK, Jan. 16.—Charies Mur- phy, leader of Tammany Hall, is heart and soul in favor of Grover Cleveland’s nomination for the presidency by the Democrats. He believes Mr. Cleveland can win ecasily. Ase goes Murphy, so goes Tammany Hall. However, Mr. Murphy is not nursing any wild delusions as to the chances of .Mr. Cleveland being nominated... He knowg_Mr. Cleveland has many bitter enemies. How strong these.are, he can’t decide to his own satisfaction. In spite of the strong faith usually placed in Leader Murphy's words, the impression ig stronger than ever today that Murphy's real purpose in bringing forward Mr. Cleve- land at this time is to prepare the way to epring George B. McClellan at the‘last mo- ment when it becomes apparent that Mr. Cleveland will not permit his name to be used. There was more McClellan talk to- Gay than ever before. Mayor McClellan will visit St. Louis at the opening of the Exposition. There he will meet a large gathering of Democrats, of national prominence in the party. Next to Murphy's declaration, the most Significant fact in politics here, developed by the gathering of national Democratic committeemen from all parts of the coun- try, is the declaration made with practical unanimity that the old Bryan issues are to be ignored in the new Democratic plat- form. National Committeeman Thomas Taggart and others declared today at the Hoffman House that Mr. Bryan, who is to be a dele- gate to the convention, will not fight for the incorporation in the platform of the 16 to 1 issue. , “Why should we go back and reaffirm the iasues of 1800 or 18967"' said Committee- man ‘Tageart. “There would ‘be just as much sense in going back twonty years and feaffirming the platforms of that period. The. issues uppermost in 1900 are net atthe front this time. Mr. Bryan will not insist that the party make a fight on this issue again. "There will be live issues this time. Tariff reform and anti-trust declarations will dominate the Democratic platform. Those are sufficient with which to win. With a! strong platform on those lines and pointing to the record of the Republican adminis- tration we can win. The platform will be one which no conservative man can refuse to support.”’ “Anti-Trust Man Plank,” Says Mack. Norman E.

BERLIN, Jan. 16.—The fact that England is concentrating a fleet of over 50 warships in the Mediterranean near Port Said cre- ates anxiety throughout Europe. The reason for this massing of sea strength in the Mediterranean is found in the report that Russia is negotiating with Turkey for the passage of the Czar’s pow- erful Black sea fleet through the Bosphorus and the Dardaneiles, with the vitw of send- ing it to the Yellow sea. The passage of the Dardanelles by the Russian fleet would be in violation of the Berlin treaty. on | Cruisers recently bought by Japan Prince Takinguki, telegraphing from on board the Japanese warship Niasin, says that when the Niasin and Kasaga, the two from Argentine, were being escorted through the Mediterranean by nine British warships they were approached by two Russian tor- pedo boats and that when the latter saw the powerful escort they left in haste for the harbor of Syracuse. ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 44.—The situa- tion may, in fact, be summed up as fol- lows: Japan is dissatisfied with the Russian note and returns it for amendment. Ac- cording to the declaration of a high of- ficial of the foreign office, when the last Russian reply was sent to Japan, Russia had conceded all she possibly can, and while willing to grant small concessions to Japan in Corea, she refuses to discuss the question of Manchuria. Japan insists in pushing the Manchurian open door question as a sine qua non, and also with equal insistence urging that she should have assurances of the integrity of Corea and China, to which Russia's con- sent is impossible. Russia wif] reply in a similar tone and will lay her reagons before the powers justifying her attitude. LONDON,, Jan. 16--The Daily Mail's Seoul correspohdent idables an interview with M. Pavloff, the Russian minister to Corea, who said: “Russia will refuse £0 agree to the open- ing of Wijw.@nd will protect Corean sov- ereignty at all costs. Russia would regard the landing of Japanese troops in Corea ag an unfriendly act, and would defend the in- dependence of Corea against pagan in- vadcrs.”’ In the same interview Minister Pavloff declared: “The Russian fleet will not fight. Fabian tactics will be employed and Japan will de- feat hersélf within a short period of being on a war footing.” 2a SIXTY MORE MARINES GUARD THE AMERICAN LEGATION AT SEOUL. SEOUL, Corea, Jan. 16.—The jAmerican guard at the United States embassy has been increased. Sixty additional marines arrived here last night and are quartered in the city at the electric power company’s building. The native press is slightly of- fengive to foreign residents, and it is quite possible there will yet be trouble with Corea. Troops now guard all the foreign residences, probably in sufficient numbers to keep the natives in check should they begin to make trouble. Foreigners cannot be considered in danger. A German man- of-war has just arrived at Chemulpo. A change in the personnel of the govern- ment has begun in favor of the Japanesé, and as the people have been more angry ‘with the government than with the for- elgners, it is likely that this change will completely pacify them. The American authorities have taken the precaution to provide male escorts for women and children of that nationality while on the street. as EIGHT REASONS why Scott’s Emulsion is an ideal food-medicine. 1.

MraCr IN Noordland, Which Arrives Badly Bat- tered Up, Was Completely Beyond Control During That Time. PASSENGERS WERE IN TERROR Those in the Steerage Prayed While the Big Liner Drifted in the Great Seas. PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 16.—The Noord- land arrived at her dock at 9 o'clock last might. A large crowd of persons. most of whom were relatives and friends of those on board, was there to greet the disabled steamer. From statements made by passengers and Officers of the Noordland there were some very anxious moments while the vessel lay helpless in the turbulent sea, although at no time was she in real danger of fo: ndering. Capt. Roberts said that from the time the Noordiand left Liverpool on Thursday, Dec. 30, the steamer had continuous heavy west gales. On Friday night, Jan. 1, he said, an exceptionally severe gale was encountered. The vesse! In consequence pitched heavily, causing her propeller to race every time her Stern rose out of the water. The strain on the engines was so great that on Saturday, gan. 2, at m., 500 miles out from Queenstown, the eccentric strap on the main shaft snapped and the big vessel was at the mercy of the waves. The terrific gale did not begin to subside until Sunday, when the weathér gradually moderated According to cabin passengers, con- eternation reigned when it became known that the Noordland was unman- Aageable, although the officers did the best thay could to allay all fear, while the ship laid helpless from Saturday afternoon until Monday evening. When she again got under way she pitched so violently that everything movable was thrown about. The steer- Age passengers were locked below and rayers were offered by them for their eliverance. The greatest fear existed among those in the steerage, while the abin passengers, although greatly u htened, were calmer. e pet ain stated that while eo sare being made heavy seas we Shipped, one of which carried awel about 30 feet of the aft rail.

Fearless Japan with her 10 first- Class battleships as the nucleus of @ navy, is not fearing the war with Russia, who boasts of 18 first-class battleships. Russia boasts of her 5200 guns on ships of war of all kinds, while Japan points to the in- telligent fighters behind her 1700 guns and offers to commence tHe combat. China, who may be drawn into the conflict, has but 368 guns on the boats of her navy. The complete story of the navies of the countries, as well as the Bterngth of the armies, is told in the figures in the POST-DISPATCH edi- tion of the WORLD ALMANAC. When the countries begin to wage actual war, the figures will be of ifn- bt t day.

HANNA TO BAR FORAKER AND HIS FRIENDS FROM THE OHIO DELEGATION. Special to-the Post-Dispatch. COLUMBUS, Jan. 16.—Senator Hanna's bold intention to prevent the election of any Foraker Republicans as delegates to the Chicago convention seems certain to cause a renewal of the factional fight. The anti-Hanna Republicans of former years joined hands in piling up the big Republican plurality last fall, but they are being @riven out of line again by Hanna's policy. The editor of the Clev eland Leader, Han- na’s personal organ, gent editorial corre- spondence frem here this week in which he dug up the old anti-Hanna fight of six ago a@nd subjected the leaders to contempt. ven former Gov. Bushnell, who lay dying pave at the time, did not escape his wrat The fact oy nearly every Republican congressman in Ohio will have to fight for renomination gives Senator Foraker an op- portunity to break in on the Hanna ma- chine. and he will no -doubt be able to carry some of the districts and compel compromises in others. Senator Hanna proposes to place George B. Cox on the ‘Big Four’ instead of Senator Foraker. This he will be able to do, no doubt, as he has the state convention machinery in his hands, but the fact will spur Senator Foraker to } harder r fighting in_the t e districts. years ELEVATOR OPERATOR REMOVED Employe Beneath Whose Platform Nine Fell to Their Death De- prived of Position. James Johnson. elevator conductor at the Brown Shoe Co.'s factory, Eleventh street and Washington avenue, where nine boys and one man were killed by falling down the elevator shaft from the sixth floor, was ordered removed by City Boller and E-e- vator Inspector Joseph G.

THONG MN Dr. Lloyd Tells Episcopal Bishops Preachers Who Could Run Rail- roads Are Wanted. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Jan. 16—Addressing the convocation of Episcopal bishops of the Sixth missionary district here, today, the Rev. Dr. Lloyd of New York, general sec- retary of the board of managers of the Foreign Missionary Society, aroused much enthusiasm by his description of the sort of men needed in the church. The reason, he said, that the best men, with the most manhood, do not offer therm- selves for the prieethood nowadays is be- cause the calling has been belittie 7 =. representation. If, in ten boys, one el- icute, that ene will be the future priest. Why” Beeause he has had time to think and reflect. The church needs men fit to be presidents of railroads; it needs western men if the nation is to be truly American: “and,”’ said Dr. Lloyd, “it cannot be American as Henry Clay said, only by Be prayer book and the Constitution. It's no use to bring eastern men to the west—no, l’'m not betraying my own country—thes Some few have been driven West because the East would not feed them and, in consequence, the very best stuff in America isc this side of the Mis. | sissippi river.

Borngesser case, in which a young wife recovered $5000 from her husband’s parents for alienating his affections, brought to light an extraordinary example of police despotism. Aj- though the chief of police told the father of the young man that there was no ground for his arrest, vet the day after the wedding the bridegroom was arrested, without warrant, and was kept in the police station al] night. The next morning he was turned over to the father., This is in harmony with the practices of the Russian police and of the aythorities in France before the revolution. There was not a shadow of warrant for such conduct. It was despotic. Today is the anniversary of the birth of Capt. Sigsbee of the Maine. The veteran seaman is now 58 years old.

We can readily forgive John Milton for ringing in on us such a bad, bad abbre- viation as “shew’th’’ for the purpose of making a rhyme, which is not much of 4 rhyme at that, because of the great wis- dom he displayed in his sonnet, “On Be- ing Arrived at the Age of Twenty-three,” wherein he says: How soon hath Time, the subtle thief of youth, Stolen on his wing my three-and-twentieth year! My basting days fiy on with full career, But my late spring no bud or blossom shew’th. Perhaps my semblance might deceive the truth That | to manhood have arrived so near. Get onto that last line, will you? For several years—that is, ever since we have arrived at the age of discretion—we have been hoiding to and boldly preaching the belief that no human being of the male persuasion is a real man till ne-weaches the age of thirty years, and that no kid, under any circumstances, should be allowed to vote under twenty-five. Backing up this theory (although we never really noticed it before yesterday), we have so eminent an authority as Mr. Milton, who got wise to the fact almost 300 years ago—that is, in December, 1631— that a man is only a raw beginner at the age of twenty-three, and that, in case he should make any undue pretensions to wis- dom, the best thing to do for him is to spank him in a soft spot, send him to bed and make him think it over. ‘ These observations, be it understood, do not apply to women. Having arrived at the age of discretion, as aforesaid, we recognize the fact, and are free to admit that a girl at the age of 16 has more sense than 4 man at 40, and that no man yet has lived to an age where he had accumulated as much wisdom and sagacity as the wom- an of 2% years. Think it over! Think it over! “Tet us cling to the constitution as & mariner clings to the last plank when night and the tempest close around him.”’ pleaded Lewis Cass, the father of Michigan and secretary of state under President Buch- anan.

I am the Post-Dispatch is going to look into the matter, and I hope they will push it to a finish Hke only the Post- Dispaten can do. A reason given for in- troducing this vertical system is, that it is easily taught. This is very true. It is also true that it requires very little time to learn it. Th‘s is naturally a good rea- son why the Board of Education is in fa- vor of it. It requires less of the instruct- ors’ time, and thus more of the pupils’ time can be devoted to other studies such us painting, sketching, domestic sc'ence, manual training, etc. It is reason to be- lieve that some of the other branches must be slighted in order to make time for these studies; as from my own per- sonal knowledge I can say that there never was any spare time in the school room. either before these branches were intro- duced or since that time.

His eyes were glued to the paper, and he conven'ently couldn’t see her.

¥ . Se WF ihe ae es hee wee eo y ar si Je it os EQ OO De y Do en Marry Osly Women ?): By Nixola Greeley-Smith. HY do men marry ugly women? We they do, e reason, of no al is that, notwithstanding the disguise of pretty clothes and the bene- fits of exereise and diet te the complexion, the ugly Women are in an immense ma- jority. Another reason is that very few men are agreed as to what constitutes beauty in women. And while Jones, whose tastes run to pudgy bionds, may wonder what Brown ever saw in ‘that skinny little dark wife of his, Brown is lost in similar amaze- ment at his neighbor's selection. As a rule men are impressionists of beauty. Given a woman of rather generqus pro- portions, displayed rather generously in a tight-fitting blue and white or a black and white goulard gown, with good teeth, a _g00d complexion and an undulating walk, and you have a man’s beauty. His mother or sister may notice that her @yes are small and shallow, her nose Shapéless and that her month looks as if it had been made with a canopener, for women have a Meissonier taste in beauty and advocate perfection of detail. But he is blissfully unaware of these facts, so long as she is well dressed and well put to- gether. Regularity of feature, or, indeed sym- metrical proportions, counts for very little with the average man. If he were to express what kind of a woman he likes best, nine times out of ten he would describe a good, hearty, whole- some gir§in a white shirtwaist. That is, of course, unless his affiliations are of the chorus. And even then an occasional long- ing for the white shirtwaist kind assails him. French and American men know “style’’ in a woman and admire it. In \Anthony Hope's . latest novel of “Double Harness’ a society woman says to an ugly girl who was bemoaning her lack of matrimonial chances; “You must go in for smartness, not pret- tiness. I really believe it pays better now- [ss cad \ a -_ ‘ " AB LS OE AN AL AA AA A adays.” But wc Mr, Hope's discriminating eye and pen, the ordinary Ebglishman knows nothing of style, @ providéntial deprivation surely designed to reconcilé him to the Bhglishwomas. But in St. Louls what the English call “smartness” undoubtedly does go further than prettiness. And there are 4 great many ugly women who have the innate quality of style and an equal number of pretty women who lack it utterly. Of course, Many men marry ugly women without this redeeming trait—hopelessly plain persons who make no attempt to atone for physical shortcomings by ¢x- cellent of grooming and attire. But why they do it is a preblem which they deserve to have to solve for them- selves. Se the Boston Post. POV GNESE Spee TI j Happiest Moment to sia The late William L. Elkins, the street railway magnet of Philadelphia, was gifted with a grim humor. This humor 4 certain Philadelphia reporter has cause to remetir ber. He visited Mr. Elkins some years ago to procure one of those bizarre interviews which sometimes appear in Sunday news papers. The getting of such interviews re- quires the asking of a number of peculiar questions, and the reporter opened fire in this way: “Mr. Bikins, how @id you earn your first thousand dollars?”’ The millionaire frowned, then smiled. “By hard work,” he answered. Daunted a little, the reporter, in silence, tried to think up the next question. Pres- ently he found it. It was: “Mr. Elkins, you have lived a good many years; now tell me—what has been the hap- piest moment of your life?’ “It hasn't come yet,"’ said Mr. Elkins. “Not yet? When, then,.will it come?" The reporter's eyes shone. Now he expected something good. ‘Tt will come,” said Mr. Elkins, “when people cease asking foolish questions.” SHE PROBABLY FORGOT.

(Copyright, 1903, by Daily Story Pub. Co.) HE “big meeting’ at the sthoolhouse T “up the créek” was getting in full swing—the preacher, or preachers, for there were volunteer gospel expounders in plenty, every night exhorted long and loud—the wildest and most reckless among the young negroes wept and trembled in their seats, excitement ran high, and the conversions were many and real. Jordon Dangerfield, the ring-leader of the reckless, was a conspicuous example of the unconverted among the men. No word of argument, no appeal of song, had yet brought him to the “mourner’s bench.”’ “Big Six,’’ whose real name was Rachel Curd, was the one woman against whom stones of persuasion and pleading were thrown in vain. Rachel weighed 300 pounds, and as she boasted she could do the work of a half dozen women, she was more often called by the appellation of “Big Six’’ than by her rightful name. Jordon was the beau of the county; he was not only the most fascinating among the negro youth, but his ability to make money was greatest. In the hemp-breaking season his nightly bale out- weighed any other hand’s—in corn cutting time he could cut more corn by day and dance longer by night than any other. Many a wistful eye was turned toward Jordon, but his heart inclined toward Judy Gates—good little Judy, whose eyes spoke perpetual worship and appeal. She did not care for Jordon’s moncy-making ability— it was Jordon himself, big, black and strapping, that Judy loved as a creature heaven sent. Latterly, however, Rachel Curd had con- cluded that a combination of Jordon's financial ability and her own would be a fine thing, and she proceeded to ‘‘cut out’ poor Judy. She joined herself to the crowd of young people who nightly passed by Judy’s hum- ble home on their way to the ‘“meetin’,” NEW PUBLICATIONS, > A NEW PUBLICATIONS, NEW PUBLICATIONS. woman.

This Is a Story of What Happened Because of Their Rivalry. in Jordon’s favur by agreeing with him in “Or Satan thought he had me fas’, and she contrived to get Jordon’s arm within her own before they reached the cabin, and to rush him along so rapidly, and so flatter his mind with her wily com- pliments that he forgot even to glance to- vard the window where Judy was waiting, and there was nothing,for poor Judy do but to creep humbly to “meetin, ” the wake of the gay crowd, with no ie escort than “pap” or “mammy.” The meeting went on—while Judy wept and prayed for the salvation of her recre- ant lover, Rachel further installed herself his rejection of the Good Tidings. If he médcked the converted, she mocked harder; if he laughed at their entreaties, she laughed louder. Gentle, shrinking Judy, soft-voiced and patient, was no match for Rachel’s bluster, and Jordon, seemingly entirely wom away, was no longer to be sought by Six. He did the seeking now, and accompanied her to the meeting every evening. The Dotys, Judy’s “white folks,” had company at the “house.” Thus it hap- pened that one Saturday morning when the meeting was well on toward its twen- tieth night, a big “wash" was set down ait Judy’s mother’s door. When Jordon Dangerfield, en route to the Doty hay fields, passed the cabin, a sound of mighty rubbing fell on his ears. Some memory of the happy thmes he had passed under the little “‘leanto,”’ before Rachel Curd had lured him. away, came to him, and he paused to look through the hollyhocks at the small woman bent over the tubs. As he surreptitiously watched the tears that now and then fell on the Doty baby’s lace-trimmed white dress, and noted how thin poor Judy’s small face had become since the meeting had begun, his heart burned with shame, and presently he was standing by the wash bench with the words: “Judy, kin I hab de honnuh o’ ‘scortin’ you tuh de meetin’ tonight?’’ on his lips. Judy iooked up with a start. “Why—why—Jordon,”" she stammered, “I —I— Does you ralely want me g0 wid your” The chains with which Rachel Curd had bound Jordon fell away under the power of Judy's look of reproachful love, and when he found himself treading the dusty road again, his thoughts were as far from Rachel as they were from the hay fork on his shoulder. A reased titter went round that even- ing, as, accompanied by a female friend only. Big Six, in second-hand finery of wine-colored silk and white-plumed leghorn, came in the schoolhouse and took a seat just behind Jordon and Judy. Judy, in her best dress, a hard-earned and many times washed white swiss, was serenely happy, and all unconscious of the glance that boded no good that fell on “her from the weighty Rachel. “Look at Big Six!’’ whispered one young wench to another. ‘‘Lawd, .I. wouldn't let losin’ uh beau put m if de ry ak “I ‘clah, she tool) | ist on mournin'— mebbe she gwine come ie tonight!"’ said the other, derisively. It proved to be an unusually tumultuous meeting. The ‘‘mournée?’s bench,’ recently lengthened by the addition of three new benches, filled up. The air became fervid. High above the songs of the younger ones could be heard the happy shouts of the elders; the invitation hymn was sung again and again, and while it rolled upward m meiody—unctuous, strong—a lon-drawi. murmur of surprise checked the voices. Big Six had risen and was making her way to the mourner’s bench! A greater wave of excitement swept over the throng; a keen-voiced negress changed the song, But I has broke his chains—I'’m free at las’ !"’ As the congregation took up the heals! the saints all over the house shouted anew in their joy. Some reeled in their excite- ment and fell over the benches—not a few rolled on the floor in joyful frenzy, and near the door four men were compelled to hold a slim matron to prevent her from overturning the fireless stove and injur- ing herself in her excitement. Suddenly Rachel flung up her hands, and her call could be heard above the loudest shouts of the multitude. “Glory! Glory! Gimme de glory! I'se convince’ o’ my ongodly deeds. Gimme de glory now!”’ “Come on, friends an’ gib de hand to de penitent ones!’’ cried the preacher, and the crowd surged toward the mourner’ bench. Rachel stood quiet, her eyes glazed and rolling, evidently unconscious of those who clasped her hands, but when Judy stood in front of her, she was apparently seized with another paroxysm of joy. “Glory!”’ she shouted, plunging forward, “I got de glory now!”" With one hand she struck off Judy's cherished straw sailor and trampled it under her feet. With the other, she gave one mighty jerk, white swiss waist was hanging Judy’s trembling shoulders. “Glory: : Glory! I'se boun’ fuh Glory now!’ she ejaculated, and with lightning rapidity her fat hand dealt a blinding blow in the face of her unfortunate rival. Then lowering her head, like a charging bull. Six literally butted screaming Judy out of the open side door and stamped her di- sheveled body before the confused negroes realized what she was doing. Jordon leaped to the rescue, and while w'lling hands pulled off Six, he lifted the lamp and helpless Judy, whose torn dress was dyed with the crimson tide that crept from her maltreated nose. The meeting | broke up In confusion. Those who rejoiced most over the apparent conversion of Big Six were loudest in condemnation of her method of announcing. “Don’ D'ieve dat nig ubbah thought o’ bein’ converted—she jes’ hypocritea to git ehanct to hurt Judy!” This was the universal verdict loudly pro- claimed. Next day Jordon sat by Judy's bedside, his face a map of contrition and anxiety. “Et you'll jes’ say you kin fuhgive me fuh cotein’ dat wicked creetuh, Judy,” he whispered, “I'll nubbah ask nothin’ cise 0° you whilst I livel”’ Judy looked at him with a little gasp of aps rehension. “I sho’ thought you'd ask me marry now, Jordon!”’ she anid, with a sob i hor voice. “Oh, Judy, darlin’, I nubbuh thought I'd Gast!" cried Jordon, bending over her with a dace full of surprise and , Louisville , Ky Mee ABSOLUTE Genuine CARTER’S LITTLE BILIOUSNESS.

CRAWLS THROUGH DENSE SMOKE ON HANDS AND KNEES Dr. F. C. Rieloff, German consul in St. Louis, now visiting in-St. saul, has’ notl- fied his friends here of his escape from death in the\fire which destroyed the Min- netonka Club house at Deep Haven, Lake Minnetonka, Minn. Crawling’ on his hands and knees, Con- gul Hieloff made his way through a long -eorridor filled with dense and raplaiy in- creasing smoke, to the doorway at the end, where he stunibled out into the night. Consul Rieloff went to the Minnetonka Club Thursday afternoon as the guest of Prof. C. F. McClompha of the University of Minnesota and Hugh V. Mercer of St. Paul. They expected to remain at the club over night and Friday and left their coats and baggage in their apartments on the In the evening while at dinner on the first floor, they heard the roar of fire in the basement, but presumed the servants were nearby and gave little attntion to it until a cloud of black smoke shot up through the register in the dining room. Find All Lights Out. Thinking that the approach of the flames would be slow or be stopped altogether they went to their rooms to secure their baggxce. ; Dr. Rieloff tells a_thrilling story of his experience. “Witen we got upstairs we found that the lights were out,” he says. “I thought I could walk right to my overcoat, and hat and baggage, but encountered much difficuity. At last I found my coat, and then feared to lose more time in searching further. “Tl started for the stair landing and stum- led over Prof. McClumpha’s grip. “At the landing it was pitch dark and the semoke was coming up the stairs in a blinding, choking cloud. By the light in the parlor I could see that the hal! and all the lower rooms were filled with smoxe. “] started downstairs, and it seemed that I would suffocate. When I got into the hal]- way I could stand no longer. “Dropping to my hands and knees I found that the smoke was much less dense near the floor, but I was still choking and breathing with difficulty. Crawling alon tpe length of that hall I finally reached e ARTISTS ARE DRIVEN FROM PILLAR TO POST Incoming Exhibits Keep World’s Fair Sculptors and Modelers Moving Themselves and Figures. Sculptors, modelers and their assistants at the World’s Fair have troubles of their own. The chief trouble is the daily in- flux of exhibits is driving them:from one improvised studio into another. Until a few weeks ago all these clever artisans were working in the Palace of Education, the whole interior of which had been transformed into one colossal artists’ den, where they were handling glue and plaster of paris. The’arrival of an exhibit from Massa- chusetts necessitated the removal of the painting department and the modelers to what is known as the Dairy Farm, a shed- like building™at the extreme northwest cor- uer of the grounds. Quite recently the Mexican Pavilion was erected in another section of the Palace of Education, and the men had to take their heroic statuary, parts of enormous horses, limbs of plaster giants and ali their casting apparatus to the east end of the building. Many an en- ergetic “‘maledetto” or ‘‘corpe Bacco” pease, but the work went on un- he United States government ex- being put in another corner of the and: Director Biel is hunting for uarters.

The men all wear white overalls, some working on the muscular chest and arms of a figure that will represent “‘Power"” on the Palace of Electricity, others handling the graceful fi es 0 esses and mermaids or the plastic contours of some huge bas-relief. A handful of plaster thrown here or there with apparent unconcern immediately takes shape and form, and soon these white titans are ready to be hoisted to the tow- ering cupolas of white titans or grou into monuments of untold magnificence. “VICTOR/A ” AIVAL ROBBED HIM OF WEDDING, LICENSE Young Lover Then Organized a Posse to Lynch Man That Thus De- layed His Marriage.

BERLIN, Jan.” 16.—The newly-elected Prussian diet was opened today by Em- peror William, 4s King of Prussia, who read the speech from the throne in a full, resonant voice, which was heard clearly throughout. the spacious white hall of the castle. The Emperor introduced a ceremonial not previously used by him or by his predeces- sors at the opening of the diet. He entered the hall preceded by two tall heralds wear- ing tabards checkered with the royal arms and quarterings in white, black- and biue and red and gold, one of the heralds bear- ing a banner on” which were emblazoned the Hohenzollern arms, and the Emperor carrying a banner showing the arms of Prussia. A long train of princes followed, including the Crown Prince Frederick Will- iam, Prince Henry of Prussia and Prince Albrecht of Prussia, and Chancellor Von > Buelow. The speech,.which entirely concerned do- m«P.ic affairs, said the King thanked Providence for his speedy restoration to health and éxpressed gratitude for the warm sympathy shown him by the peop e Continuing, he referred to the improve- ment in the economic situation in Prussia to the augmentation of the revenues, where- by the financial year of 1993 would show a surplus. and, added that the estimates of the revenues and expenditures for 1904 would balance. The proposed legislation includes thefcom- pletion of the Berlin-Stettin waterway, the conversion of a portion of the Oder into a canal and the improvement of the Oder and Vistula waterways. The Emperor. at the conclusion of the reading of the speech, placed his helmet on his head and waited a moment for the cus tomary three cheers for the King, which it is the privilege of Herr Schaffner, the od: est member of the diet, to propose. Herr Schaffner, however. forgot to do so, and after an awkward pause, the Emperor walked to the door followed by the princes and ministers. Someone thereupon promot- ed Herr Schaffner and he proposed the cheers, which were then heartily given. -_ Fs To Prevent the Grip.
