KNOWS AND HATES THEM And Goes Grimly Determined to Break: Their Spirit Forever Cham berlain's Ultimate Policy Stated (Copyright. 1S39, "by the Associated Press.) London, Oct. 14. War, so often pre dicted in these dispatches ts being the Inevitablo climax to hopeless things, has come at last and Is now In full swing for the subjection of the little republic whose whole military sun sets and rises at Mo jubaHiH. Great Britain has going- ma chinery more powerful than that which crushed Napoleon, and twice as strong as that which gave her Egypt and the Sou dan. General Sir Rodvers Buller has gone, and already the Boer bullets have sung a song- of desperate defiance. That the next few weeks will he marked by sharp fighting can almost be taken for granted. That the result will pnJbahly be for a time not too favorable to the British is also to he admitted. The main question is how long are hostilities to last. The ultimate English victory Is al most assured, by virtue of overwhelming strength. A forecast of the length and nature of the campaign should not be ventured without knowledge of an extraordinary circumstance communicated to the Asso ciated Press on most reliable authority, though hitherto not printed In England, 'nemely, that General Buller has gone to take entire control of the South African situation. He will be as absolute as was Wellington, and less hampered than was Kitchener. Therefore, not only the con duct of the war lies in his discretion, but also virtually the future of all South Af- rica and no prognostications arejof any 1 raiue without first taking into considora lion his porsonal character for obstinacy 1 and frankness, traits responsible for the supremacy he has attained. Two months ago the'socrotary ofstate for war, the Marquis of Lansdowne, of fered Buller command of the projected army corps. Sir Redvors gave a point blank refusal unless the warofflce would guarantee him between sixty and seventy thousand men. He is quoted as having said on that, occasion: "I shall not bo handed down in history as anotflier Sir Goorgo Collcy." The reference was, of course, to the defeat of Majuba Hill. He also said that if he were to go, it must be on the distinct understanding that he could select his own staff and would bo entirolv uninterfered with by the war of llce. His request regarding the staff, it is said, was prompted by his suspicion that Lord Wolseley would attempt to pay off old scores by foisting upon him staff officers .antagonistic to him. Lord Landowne demurred, but tho stronger man prevailed, and Buller, having- gained all the points he coveted, accepted the supreme command. Prior to Lord Lans downe's assent. General Buller freely ex pressed tho opinion that when he had driven tho Boers intoa corner his hand might be stayed by a peace-loving cabinet or a well-intentioned war offlcc a condi tion of things he could not tolerate, for, as he expressed it, his hand was "not one of those that, once put to the plow, releases its grip." It appears that both tho queen and the cabinet practically ac quiesced in his demand, although of oour.ee retaining a nominal command, scarcely worth the name. Buller is prot fy certain to cut the wires behind him! and to be out of touch with London at critical moments, for foar tho cabinet might change its mind. It'is this man, then, whom some of his own oflicers do not hesltato to call a brute, bowever much they admire his de termination, who holds the destiny of the Transvaal and tho Orange Free State in his hand. Ho knows the Boers, ,and he hates tthexn. Ho has campaigned over tho whole present battle ground and is, abov all, a soldier from head to foot. As soon as he reaches South Africa ho will inaugurate a campaign of aggressiveness such ns the world has seldom seen, but which he believes justifiable by reason-of h s own superior force. The sternest n essures will not be too stern for him, id until the last vestige of Dutch power, v nether in the Transvaal, the Orange Tree State or Gape Colony, Is swept out, h will not stay his hand. The" Idea Is well illustrated by Sir John Tnn!el's axUxm In this week's Punch, represent ing ohn Bull saying: "As you will fight, you shall have it this time. It is e fight Ao the finish." General Sutler's mission is nearly in keeping with the spirit of the colonial ofltce. Rightly or wrongly, believing war to be the only possible method of solving the Transvaal trouble, they have made no effort to conceal their satisfaction at; receiving an ultimatum from President Kruger. thus enabling them to place the onus of the war on the Boers. England may or may not have justification for her intentions, but the government organs, which must know, as the Associated Press knows, by personal knowledge, the real Ailing of the anti-Boer party in Eng land. hie made pitiful hypocrites of theme Mes in printing Jeremiads on Prasieit Krugerts perverseness In send ing an ultimatum. The only thing that FUrprises an imperlalo bserver is that the Transvaal pr dent did not adopt this course week of ore British reinforce ments arrived The only explanation of JitefVailure to do so lies la the report that he evensstimajed the strength of the Britfek peace party. Once General Butler gets to work, it is believed here, the Boers will offer lktle organized resistance. Something depends of cours. upon the success they may achleve In the interim, but the Ufe in surance companies are only asking an extra premium of five pence as a war risk; in other words, placing the odds at ka to I This does net apply to South African irregulars fighting side by side with the regulars, for It is said the .Boers will show them no quarter. This it Is hard to believe, when it is recalled with what unusual humanity the Boers treat ed the English prisoners during the prev ious war. Speaking of the war of 1SS1, It should be remembered that General Colley's en tire force amounted to less than 2,000 men, while the Boers had nearly 12,000. General Sir George Stewart White, the British commander In Natal, is not likely to fall Into General Colley's error of a premature advance. In fact, it is rather presumed that General White, knowing the tremendous extent of the reinforce ments on the way, will consistently re main strictly on the defensive rather than risk, a doubtful engagement. All, sorts of surmises are current regarding the de tailed strategy to be employed. One authority says the hostility of the Orange Free State confers an immense advantage upon the British, as it will enable Sir Redvers Buller to go direct through that country Into the Transvaal. The Naval and Military Record, in the course of a most Interesting article writ ten by an army officer, who compares the forces, says: "There Is little doubt that the first losses on our side will be heavy. Our troops will be compelled to accept the route of attack on unnrepared positions, while the Boers, at the very outset, by means of the mobility, may be able to make a dash into Natal, retiring with comparative ease if pressed. But it is hard to believe that they have stay ing power sufficient to.proiong operations for any length of time. General Buller will eventually be strong enough to invest any fortified towns or positions taken by the Boers and to sit down and wait until exhaustion sets in among them. Scarcely populated as Is the veldt, with a total area scarcely equal to France. It Is ques tionable if 10,000 typical yeoman, trained in the use of arms, can be raised through out the whole Transvaal. The rest are city men, with vices of greed and the lovo of ease engenedered in centres of urban life. It is far from true that the Boers ar a godly, clean-living and generous race. They have openly given it out that the British are to be uprooted, stock and branch, and the ofot-heard phrase, 'to every man, damsel or two throws lurid light on Mr. Kruger's pious front. We enjoy the sublime advantage of eventu ally posing as the attacking party, and it remains to be seen how far the Boers are fitted for the wearisome role of passive defense, which sooner or later will be Im posed upon them. The service revolver they have in many cases discarded for one of ten chambers, but I do not believe there will be much hand-to-hand fight ing, for Sir Redvers is well aware that. In a melee, the advantages of Iron disci pline are to a great extent lost We do not intend to allow the Boers to close with our infantry, although cavalry pa trol skirmishes wll lbe unavoidable. The Transvaal forces prefer ambuscades, and our difficulty will be to get into contact with them. It is to be hoped that the British Indian troops wll lbe detailed as an advance guard, for they are well trained in ambush work." Although Sir Buller has gone, most of the corps is still here. The Associated Press learns that the admiralty has fin Ally fixed upon October 20 as tho first day of regular embarkation, this continuing each day thereafter from Southampton, which will be literally red and khakl brown with departing troops. On Octo ber 23 and 23 there will be embarkations of -a large contingent of men and equip ment at Tilbury. These two ports will be the only outlets of any importance. The Outlook quotes a member of the cabinet, whose name is not given, but who is evidently Mr. Chamberlain, as say ing In private conversation: "Absolute equality, nothing more and nothing less, is what we intend to secure in South Af rica, There can be but one fate for tho Boer oligarchy, and there can bo left no doubt regarding British sovereignty over all South Africa, When these ends have been attained, a policy of magnanimity and consideration, such as made the French Canadians loyal citizens, will, I have no doubt, be applied with equal success in South Africa. To destroy ruth lessly the best traditions and amour I propre of the Boers will bo an act (of the sunremest folly." The Shippers Gazette says that the calling Out of the reserves is seriously affecting the shipyards and engineering works, especially the latter, resulting In a slackening of the rate of ship produc tion. Tho plethora of money in England is evidenced by the fact that the Mansion House fund for fie Cape Town refugees already reaches more than 60,000, while 3,000 has just been paid for a private orchid collection, 147 going for one rlant. Interest in winter sports does not suffer by reason of the war. Oxford and am brldge are organizing big foot ball, row ing and athletic programs There Is con siderable talk of a possible meeting in athletics between Oxford-Cambridge and Yale-Harvnrd in the "United States next summer, but the leading opinion inclines to the belief that a biennial contest is suf ficient, and as the English universities will probably send teams to the Olympia games at the Paris exposition, it is hardly thought feasible also to take part in a contest with the Americans. SCHREINER STANDS LOYAL Cape Town, Oct. 13. (Delayed in transmission.) A proclamation has been issued, signed by the governor of Cape Colony. Sir Alfred Milner. and the pre mier, W. P. Schreiner, saying that, ow ing to the state of war existing between the Imperial government and the Trans vaal and the Orange Free State, it is ex pedient to warn Britishers and others of their duties and obligations to the queen. It exhorts all to observe loyalty to the queen and the government, and to abstain from treasonable and seditious acts and all words and acts tending to excite dlsafectlon. It warns her majes ty's subjects not to enlist or engage in the military service of either of the two republics, and not ta carry on trade with or supply goods to either reupbtic or to the citizens of either. Any one commit ting what is thus prohibited, the procla mation says, will be punished. MR. MACRUM HEARD FROM Washington. Oct. 14. Mr. Macrum, the United States consul at Pretoria, has cabled the state department ackuawl edging the receipt of Its instructions rel ative to ""the assumption of the care of British interests In tho Transvaal, and undertaking compliance. The department! was relieved to hear from tis agent. In view of the reported cutting off of tele graph communication with Pretoria. While the assent of the Boer government to this arrangement will be necessary, the state department had no doubt that this will not fce withheld, Europe's Chestnuts Out of the Transvaal Fire KAISER HAS TRIED ONCE And Won't Again-No New Transvaal Developments, (Copyright, 1S99, by the Associated Press.) Berlin, Oct. 14. A high German official, whose utterances may be taken as abso lutely conclusive, eaid to a representative of the Associated Press today: "We shall observe the strictest neutrality, no tmatter what may develop In the war be tween the Boer republic and Great Brit ain. That Is the only course left open, as conditions in South Africa are so com plicated andonr relations with both sides are so delicate that to abandon neutral ity by so much as a hair's breadth nec essarily would lead to new and unforseen complications. We mean to adhere to neutrality toward both parties. What else can we do? Other powers spoken of as likely to Interfere havo also concluded to keep quiet. Such rumors as now and again reach the pres for Instance the report about the alleged attempts on the part of the Russian minister. Count Mu ravleff, to bring 'about concerted inter ventionare unfortunately only rumors. I j. sa.y, unionunateiy, mo wora snowing how our sympathies lie, but politics In "these days must be strictly separated fiom interests on the one side and sym pathies on the other. It is true our en tire press calls upon the government to Interpose between the brave little re public and big, powerful England, and again a crusado against England is being preached to the nations of the continent. But wo would be fools to listen to this siren song. On that occasion when we blew the alarm horn I refer to Emperor William's telegram 'to President Kruger in 189C and tried to assemble the powers with a view of opposing Great Britain in her selfishness and rude aggressiveness, we had a bad experience. The lesson was not lost upon us. Of course all the other powers would like it only too well If Germany would oppose England serious ly In this matter, but we would doubtless be left to our unaided selves. Therefore, we are going to avoid intervention and re main strictly neutral in the coming stru gle. Our intention has been communicat ed fully to tho Transvaal and to Eng land. England would not have gone on as she has if she had not thoroughly un derstood this. ro not understand me (to moan that Germany would not participate in some concerted action looking toward intervention; but she has no idea of again taking the Initiative." This authoritative declaration tallies with one made by the inspired Berliner Post, In which the policy of neutrality is likewise advanced. However, aside from tho government press, every paper and every person, high or low, condemns Eng land. Many also seriously blame tho government for its inactivity. Tho Deutsche Tages Zeitung says: "It is unnecessary to say that our best wishes accompany the Boers, for they will fight not only in behalf of their own existence, but in behalf of Germany's po sition in South Africa, which will bo lost If tho' British win. If, on the other hand, the Boers win, Great Britain will lose not only South Africa, but. perhaps the whole of her powerful position in the world." The Kreuze Zeitung and the Hamburg er Nachrichten use similar arguments. The Deutsche Zeitung, referring to tho ultimatum, says: "The wrongs inflicted by Great Britain on tho Transvaal are mountain-high and the impression made by the ultimatum upon every impartial person Is Irresistible." Tho Lokal Anzeiger calls England's procedure' "colossally brutal?' and charges Mr. Chamberlain and the war party in England with "dishonest finan cial operations that render war neces sary." The Frankfurton Zeitung says: "The fact that Great Britain will not be hin dered by other powers Is due to Ger many's friendly neutrality, but England will hardly be grateful for this after tfa war is -over." Tho Cologne Gazette pays: "We hope thc Boers will not meet with the fate of Spain and lose their own." Tho Hamburger correspondent says: "The other powers must wish to seo England engaged as long as possible In a fight with the Boors, as that will leave thow ay free Isewhere for them Tho fact that President Kruger did noto receive birthday congratulations this year from Emperor William is comment ed upon regrotfully by a number of pa pers. There are, moreo .r, other evi dences of sympathy with the Boers. Subscription lists nre being -circulated on the oursc to raise money for the equipment of ambulance wagons, and a Transvaal central committee is forming to collect funds for the same purpose. Berlin, Oct. ll'. The Dresdener Nenste Nachrichten publishes a letter from Colonel Schiel. commander of the Ger man corns In the Transvaal, who says: "Pretoria was on the point of offering Germany a protectorate over the Trans vaal when Great Britain immediately moved heaven ami earth to frustrate the plan. War between the Transvaal and England then became unavoidable." The first Boer success is commented upon sympathetically by the German pres. The leading military organ, the Mititaire Wocherblatt. says: "Great Britain underestimates the strength of the Boer forces, which are 9&.i men. well equipped. Sbe will need lS.fi thoroughly subdue them." GENERAL J0UBERT!S PLATFORM New York, Oct II General P. J. Jon ben. the commander of the Boer force. has sent the following letter to George Van Sielen under date of September 11. 1S99: 'Tour letter of August 5. JStt. came to hand. I thank yon for !t and for the opportunity given me to remove and to contradict a groat misunderstanding or wrong impression that I m ia mvor ia England and therein differ from Presi dent Kruger. This is absolutely untrue. If President Krutger and I differ, then it may be In some of ear oniHioas, bat the maintenance of our slf-geeraraat and the defense of our indepoadence lie eqaai ly close to the heart of each of vis. Prob ably this letter will not reach you before England has begun to fire cannon upon us, and then we shall have the com mencement of the fight, but our God in heaven only knows what the end will be.

His, departure was the oc casion for another patriotic demonstra tion. General Buller arrived 'at the sta tion at 1:45 p. m. With great difficulty his carriage forced its way through the crowds that blocked every approach. The people swarmedi everywhere and gave the station the appearance of a veritable beehive. Constant and 'deafening cheers marched the approach of the royal car riages, containing the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Cambridge; and when Sir Redvers Buller alighted and approached the doorway of the station to receive the pilnce and his former commander-in-chief, enthusiasm knew no bounds. The immense waiting1 room was temporarily converted into a reception room, where the secretary of state for war. Lord Lansdowne, Lord Wolsey, feorge Wynd ham, parliamentary under-secretary of state for war: General Sir Evelyn Wood, Colonel Lord Paul Methuf, and a host of other celebrities were gathered to bid farewell to General Buller. The Prince of Wales ana the Duke of Cambridge ac comDanied him to the train. Meanwhile the people filled every available spot within the station, hanging even from the rafters. Thousands of throats took up the cries "Good Luck," and Remember Ma juba." Everybody, the royal personages Included, uncovered as the train finally pulled out of (he station. Southampton, Oct. 14. The arrival and embarkation of Sir General Redoers Bul ler was the occasion of a scene of en thusiasm. Thousands of townspeople and visitors swarmed near the quay, where the mayor of Southampton welcomed General Buller, amid deafening cheers and the waving of handkerchiefs, hats and walking sticks. Sir Rodvers smil ingly acknowledged tho demonstration, and went immediately on board tho stea mer, entering the captain's cabin where he bado farewell to Lady Buller and his daughter. When the Dunotar Castle sailed, with General Buller and the oth ers standing on board, the crowd cheer ed themselves hoarse and sang "God Save the Queen," a3 the ship glided out of thedock. BOER STRENGTH AND PLANS London, Oct. 14 The caplure of tho armored train on the western border of tho Transvaal is the beginning of a few anticipated reverses -at the outset of the campaign. The 3oer plan ."is now un folding itself. It -seems to be to strike simultaneously at different points with a view of obtaining a strong strategctic position in Natal before the arrival of the British army corps. At all points the British are faced by Boer forces super ior at least in number. The most dan gerous positions, especially sine tho loss of "the armored train, are Mafekingand Vryburg. Colonel Baden-Powell, who 1s in command at Mafeklng, is a man of the greatest courage and energy; but he has only 2,000 men, many of them irre gular", whoso fighting capacity Is not known, although it Is bclie-cd to be good. The fact that he has moved out of Ma feking indicates some apprehension, and in all likelihood he will have to stand a fierce assault or a rolonged siege. Geno eral Sir George Stewart White, command ing In Natal, Is estimated to have about 15.000 men, stretched in strongly en trenched positions from Ladysmith to Dundee. He Is a man of great resource and has the valuable assistance of Gen eral Sir Wlliam Penn Symons, experi enced in hill fighting in Indian, and of General Sir Archibald Hunter, experi enced in Soudan campaigns. FIRST DETAILS OF BATTLE London. Oct 14. Those who had been anxious for more stirring news from the seat of war got It to the full this morn ing, as, according to dispatches, shoot ing must have been nearly continuous along the entire borders of the Boer re publics, while pitched battles had occur red or were occurring at various points in Natal and British Bechuanaland. Most of these reports, however, remained un confirmed. As Mafeking was cut off telegraphic ally, the stories from that point were gen erally of Kaffir origin, and to be regard ed with suspicion. While there seemed everw probability that General Cronje's big commando had begun the assault on Mafeking, reliable details were still awaited. Further details were at hand regard ing the destruction of the armored train at Kraalpan. They showed that Captain Nesbltt. who was in command of the train, was warned that the Boers held he line. He replied that be was bound to proceed. Nearlng Kraaipaa the train dashed Into a culvert that had been blown up by the Boers, who were lying in wait for the train. The Boer artillery immedi ately opened fire and a desperate fight ensued, lasting four hours, with the odds greatly against the British. The precise details were still uncertain. It seemed, however, that a ponce .patrol, attracted by the firing, approached within about S.0M yards of Kraalpan. saw the train ditched, with the Beer artillery still pounding at It, but noticed no response. "Bbe Boers semeed afraid to approach un til the wreck wag completed: and the po lice patrol feared, as tnere were (us signs of Hfe near the train, that the entire force had perished ia a desperate attempt to get the train hack to Mafeking. where they knew k was anxiously awaited wfch it toad of guns and ammunition.

Fully 15,000 people crowded around the speaker's stand and cheered wildly when tho president. In the course of his speech President McKinley said: "I received the other day a letter from a most distinguished officer now engaged In active duty in the Philippines. It is a letter dated Manila, August 29, 1899, and I want to read one or two extracts from It. 'I am confident that if we would with draw our army now, that Agulnaldo could not hold himself in power without carrying on warfare against other tribes, and this would causo a constant warfare and turmoil for years. Of course there would be looting of cities and seizing and destruction of property, and the bus iness people and property holders would apply to eome strong government to re store order.

Yesterday, for Saturday, was a very heavy day at the Dold plant. There were four large cars sent out from the straight car contract division, besides a heavy consignment from the local, jobbing and Express departments. The wholesale market forces were busy until a late hour getting out the shipments. Provisions ruled dull and lower all around. Packers sold moderately. Janu ary pork, lard and ribs ruled a shade lower. Cash lard closed steady at $5.27, and cash ribs 5 cents off, at $4.S71. Ail the several traveling salesmen for the Dold company were in at headquar ters yesterday to report for the week, and all give the best statements as to the business in their respective territories. The Dold meats are now so well estab lished that the entire trade of this south west knows their worth and have seen the prflts of handling them. Not alone the staple cuts and the standard grades, but the several specialties for which this house is noted, all have reached a de gree of popular demand which is very flattering to the Wichita house, and which suggests at once the real merit of the products turned ou,t from here.

The day's stock market reflected nothing more than a contest of professional operators, and these not of very large calibre. There were small buying orders at the opening pf the London account on rumors of a reverse for the Boers at the hands of the British in Natal, which seemed to help prices to move upwards. The bear campaign against Brooklyn Transit was successfully prosecuted and the stock was at one time forced 2i under last night. Metropolitan and Manhattan seemed to sympathize, but recovered their decline at the final rallv of In Brooklyn Transit. Pullman has added three more points to its price and Great Nortaern preferred 3.

Now, as a matter of fact, there will be a, parade Friday night, tho great est parado that ever trod the asphalt or came down the pike under electric lights. There will be a carnival, a carnival of innocent fun under restrictions against the rough and uncouth, for nothing which will soil dresses, offend any one or Injure any parson will be permitted. But with the carnival will bo a parade. Geo. Bergman has worked like a Turk to get it up, and although he refuses to di vulge tho details, sufficient is known to allow one to assert that it will be the funniest aggregation that mortal ever layed eyes on. There will be many floats, floats that would have made the king who never smiled again. He down in the dust and split his several sides. There will be characteristic Ooluthumpian rep resentations that will make Friday night as the night of nights, barring nothing in the whole week of festivities.

Street car gossip took a new turn yes terday on the report that Burdette had secured an extension of his option and was dealing now with J. J. Burns of Chicago, who used to live at Belle Plaine, Sumner county, and who built the D. M. A railroad from Winfield to Lamed. The story started from the following clipping which, is taken from a Goshen, Ind., paper: "The news reached here today that J. J. Burns had formed a large and wealthy corporation and had secured a franchise In a prosperous city of $0,000 people for an electric line, and the construction work will begin at once. An investigation re veals the fact that the town is Wichita, Kansas, which is sustaining a new and vigorous growth, and Is one of the most promising cities in a vast and fertile country. "Mr. Burns is a man who is progres sive and up-to-date and he will meet the people of "Wichita more than half way In railway service. Goshen and Elkhart owe him much for his progressiveness which resulted In our present lnterurban line." An attempt to run down the story led to ascertaining that the Burdette peo ple have been in correspondence with Mr. Burns, but that it is very improbable that he has secured any extension of his option. Mr. J. O. Davidson had a tele gram Friday from the Batchelder people asking him to go to Keene, N. H., at once. The Batchelder people suggest that a deal can now bo perfected with the Davidson people, so that It would not appear that Burdette has any further In terest In the lines at all. Mr. Davidson has made the best proposition that his company can afford to offer, and it re mains only for the Batchelder people to say whether they can accept the offer. There is where tho matter rests now. The Davidson people have done all that any business Arm could be asked to do, and they refuse to howl and dicker any longer. Immediate developments have been in sight every day for a week, but nothing has materialized. Mr. Burns Is now a rich man, owning two or three street car systems in the east, besides his immense interests in Chicago. NEW STREETCARSCHEDULE How Cars Will ho Hun During tho Street Fair. The streets are going to be so crowded this week that Superintendent Church of the Street Railway company has wise ly concluded to keep most of the cars off the congested corner of Main and Doug las. For this purpose he announces the following schedule, beginning Tuesday Tuesday and ending Saturday. The Fairview car will run southward to Oak and stop there. The Topeka ave nue cars will Tun only above Douglas avenue, stopping on the southward trip at the Manhattan hotel. The Falrmount line will run to the corner of Main and Douglas. The West Side cars will run; only west of "Water street, starting and returning there. The College Hill car will run only east of the Santa Fe tracks, starting and returning there. MODEL WOODMEN'S CAMP .Local .Lodge "Woodmen of tho World Have an Exhibition. One of the unique things of the booth attraction is a little cottage of the fron tier type representing the "Woodmen of World. It looks like a model woodman's camp, being about GxlO and built of green cottonwood logs, cornered with the old reliable frontier notch architecture. It is thatched with willow and cotton wood brush and above the door willow twigs are arranged to spell "Woodmen of the World." The Big Store, with its three floors'jack up" of high quality goods, never sleeps, but is always wide awaks with style and low prices.

Mrs. George Parham was slightly In jured in a runaway yesterday after a Don, and had it not been for the prompt action of her sister, Miss Green, she would prob ably have been hurt very badly. Her horse became unmanageable on North Main street, and while it was -unning Mrs. Parham was thrown out of tho buggy and between the bed and the wheel and became fastened there so that she could not extricate herself. Miss Green, by a heroic effort, jerked Mrs. Parham out of the wheel and back Into the buggy, and she escaped wih only some very pain ful bruises made by the wheels.

GOOD DOCTORS Are Quick to See and Appreciate Seal Merit in Any Preparation. 3Iany of Them are A'ow Purchasing Stuart's 3yspepsia Tablets in All Stomach Troubles. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are a discov ery of fereat value to the medical profes sion and the public They are an unfail ing specific in all cases of dyspepsia and disordered digestion. Almost everybody's digestion is disor dered more or less, and the commonest thing they do for it is to take some one of the many so-called blood purifiers, which In many cases are merely stxong cathartics. Such things are not needed. If the organs are in a clogged condition, they need only a little help and they will right themselves. Cathartics Irritate the sensitive linings of the stomach and bow els and often do more harm than good. Purging is not what 13 needed. The thing to do is to put the food in condi tion to be readily digested and assimi lated. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do this perfectly. They partly digest what Is eaten and give the stomach just the help it needs. They stimulate the secretion and excretion of the digestive fluids and relieve tho congested condition of the glands and membranes. They put the whole digestive system in condition to do its -work. When that Is done, you need take no more tablets, unless you eat what does not agree with you. Then take one, or two tablets give them needed help, and you -will have no trouble. It's a common sense medicine and a common sense treatment and it will cure every time. Not only cure the disease, but cure the cause. Goes about it in a per fectly sensible and scientific way. We have testimonials enough to fill a book, but we don't publish many of them. However Mrs. E. M. Faith of Byrds Creek, Wis., says: I have taken all the Tablets I got of you and they have done their work well in my case, for I feel like a different person altogether. I don't doubt if I had not got them I should have been at rest by this time. H. E. Wlllard, Onslow, la., says: Mr. White of Canton, was telling me of your Dyspepsia Tablets curing him of dyspep sia, from which he had suffered for eight years. As I am a sufferer myself, I wish you to send me a package by return mall. Phil. ;Brooks, Detroit, Mich., says: Tour dyspepsia cure has worked wonders in my case. I suffered for years from dyspepsia but am now entirely cured and enjoy life as I never have before. I gladly recommend them. It will cost 50c to find out Just how much Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will help you. Try them that's the best way to de cide. All druggists sell them.

I FIRIHEST I There Is Jolo, With Its Cats and Moslem Fanatics. QUEERESTAMERICANTOWN Native Sports and Customs The Charleston's "Dato.v (Foreign Correspondence of the Chicago Tribune by Richard Henry. Little.) Manila, P. I., Sept. S. Jolo is an Ameri can town -where therels no newspaper, no trolly car, no railroad, no bank, no wo man, no church, no candidate fort office, no ice, no preacher- There Is nothing really American at Jolo except 500 sol diers, who sit on a little pier and watch for some boat to come in with the mail. As there is a boat only once In ev ery two or three "weeksthis sives steady employment to the soldiers and keeps them from worrying about other things. There are Chinamen about 2.0CO of them in Jolo, and outside the city wall the Mohammedan natives of the Island of Jolo stand about In picturesque attitudes, and barter -their barongs, and krisses, and spears, and headdresses, and scarfs, and anything else they may happen to have on, to the soldiers. The soldiers who are not sitting on the pier watching for the mailboat walk idly about the town. Thej cannot walk far in ajiy direction without either butting up against the city wall or walkin into the ocean, so they either sit in the parks, which are not quite as big as a hotel cining-room in the States, or go to the mall shops kept by Chinamen, and drink warm pop and hot-beer and debate on whether or not the mall will come in on Thursday of this week or on Monday af ternoon of next. People who have not time to look into i geography "whenever they read the pa 7'ers nowadays may be bothered to know whether Jolo is that town in the western 7 art Of Jorto Rico, or on the Island of 'ahu-.or Hawaii, or the one to which Ag i 'naldo's men retreated after the fall of Malolos, But Jolo is more remote than rny of these, In fact, it is the farthest dway from the United States of all Amer ican towns. 'It is on the is'and of Jolo, hlch has another name, Sulu, that it tmsvcers to just as willingiy. Sultt on tha map is at the bottom of the 2'hljlipino group, and fnlf 'way between Hrneoanu Mindanao. -It is only ten tniles wide and thlrty-four miles long. The town of Jolo is only six degree from flie cauator, and tho families and 'friends c? the Twonty-third Regiment probably ire-worrying themselves -a good deal tnoXfi 111 in the States over the frightful 3iat In which their heroes supposedly are pwoltering than are the heroes them-' Fflves. Most of the- men And it neces isiry to slfep under an army blanket at jilght, and were exchanging anxious in c ulries the August morning I left there as to whether it was going to snow. Tho temperature was hardly ever, even at noonday, above S6 degrees, and went as iw at night as 56 degrees. Of all the strnge towns that America 3ias adopted during the last vear, Jolo Is the strangest. Perhaps the Vapsar girl's 8'hrase for anything unusual should be ap plied to it, for Jolo "is positively weird." Tt is not a town of Sulu naives, for the" j stives ara carefully corralled at sun down every night by the provost guard nd put out of town, and the big wooden trate is shut in their faces and not opened igaln "until 7 o'clock In the morning. Then the native may come into town, if they ilrat take off their barongs and Jvnlves and other impedimenta Of war and sung them in a shed called the lanceria cutsldc. Then If tho subsidized Moro, whom the Americans omploy as special policeman, and who stands guard at the city gate, says the applicant for admis sion is a good Moro and not liable to turn Juramentado and try to gain heaven by a single bound by removing the head of anybody whom ho chooses to consider a Christian, tho soldiers admit the Moro nd permit him the freedom of the city until sundown. At fifteen minutes after 5 a bugler at regimental headauartcrs sounds a call 3nown as tho "Moro call It is set down an army regulations as the signal for "skirmish drill," but.it means to the Mo ros that they are to skirmish out of town ns fast as they can if they do not wish to be escorted by young men with bayonets. So Jolo is a native town only in day 1'ght At night the natives seek other i iiwni-Bush-Bush and other places along ihe sea-shore a half mile or more from j even at all hours of fhe day. From 11 o'clock until 2 tho gate is closed and they can neither leavo nor enter the city. These custome originated with the Span iirde, who held the town from 1S51 down to a few months ago. when they pulled down their flag and the Americans took forma! possession 6f the place. Jolo formerlv was the residence of the Sultan, 3ut after the Spaniards took the 'ty he retired to Maybua on the opposite bide of the Island, and that place has re mained the seat of the Sultanate ever s-lnce. The Spaniards never were able to, pot far outetde of Jolo cveept with a fulLL,ten," and then hslans his' hands to regiment that had to light as it went It was as much as the Spaniards could do to keep Jolo, and they did that only by building a high wall around the town and rilntainlng practically a state of siege all the time. Many of the customs that the American t roups still observe In Jolo were Inetitut "1 by General Arolas, the best Governor Spain ever sent to any of Its colonies. Tvn Arolas went to Jolo the Juranvn h4 i, who bad taken their wrs to die kfll. vT Ghrtetrtaw. wouM sHp Into town tit' r rat And begin avmassAcra, or oon-paL-sreaf-m3 In tttetr ctotWnbjttl ad -wait vtl tVjvwer HJl' lnsi$e tibe dty. fwrifh 'thfey w ould suddenly run' v amuck EndfiHUciphtQand, aWtll k'gHhalbr se the9 cattf My sO&hu Aratas 'es 1at""hed ;he lanceria, wL.ch theAmeri cans the "spear market," just out side 'He ffity gate, where all Xoro'e are f torrid by a guard and searched for weaaont?. T'p Americans have ao fears of the Ju-ram-'d.

"When the Twenty-third Regiment, went into Jolo the Catholic cathedral was tak en as a barracks under stress of military necessity. This was a most startling pro ceeding to the Moros, and a terrible blow to intending Juramentados. The Moros asked themselves whether a people "who slept "with their boots on, and who marched with" guns into the house that had been the sacred place of the Span iards, -who "were Christians could them selves be Christians. It could not (be. Moreover, on the first day of the week, when the other Christians had marched in long procession to the holy place and their priests had chanted and waved lit tle lamps of; brass, these Americanswere wont to come out to the meadow out side the city wall and throw a ball at each other (and hit It with a heavy stick and knock it a great distance, and then shout so that the echo thereof could be heard half way to Maybun. "What would it profit a man if ,-he shaved even his head and his eyebrows and slew thses people. If these strange Americans were not Christians then would Mohammed drive the Juramentados away in wrath when they should come before him and" claim entrance to his heaven. The Moros pract ically have ended their investigations by deciding that the Americans are not Christians. Another sad blow (to the Juramentodo Industry is the declaration of General Bates that his men will capture the Ju ramentados alive and hang them on the same gallows with the. priest who heard their vows, the barber who shaved their heads, as weii as any person who knew of their intentions and did not warn the Americans. ThS JMoros say this is sau but true. It is a part of a Juramenta do's vow to die while inrthe act of slay ing Christians. To be knocked in the back of the head with a gun butt and dragged like a sick buffalo to the jail, and then to be taken out and hanged like a common thief was disquieting to think of. Then there was the risk of finding out, all too late, that the Americans are not Christians, anyhow, and that the Ju ramentado had gained neither the proph et's bosom, nor the sixteen heavenly hours, nor everlasting bliss. Another reason for the non-appearance of Juramentados bo tfar, Is the Sultan's remark: "The Spaniards tried continual ly to convert us from our faith to theirs. Leavo my people's religion alone and therewill be no Juramentados." There is one at Jolo now who cares a snap wheth er the Moro be meets is a Mohammedan, a "hard-shell" Baptist, or a Mormon eld er. But the officers of the regiment shud der at the mention of missionaries. They'; say they will repaint thesigns in the pack and make them read, "Keep off the 3Io ro's religion." t The houses In Jolo are packed -in as nicely as sardines In "a 20-cent tin. Th Spaniards did not "want to waist to much money on a wall so they tlrew the; town,. close in to the sea, canned it up with. the- ewelve-foot wall, and sealed it he'rhiajt Ically by decreeing that thereshould be no, houses outside. The" planting of sbBurbs Is. not a flourishing Industry at' Jolo. The town: is only about a-wide as, an ordinary Chicago block, and not over four blocks long. The wall runs entirely around the town except on the water side and there is only one gate. Outside the wall, at some distance from the town, are three block-houses occupied by de tachments from the garrison of the town. Jolo would delight the eye of the comic opera librettist. It looks like nothing so much as the setting of a good stage pic ture. The old walls are weather beaten and moss grown. The streets are bor dered by rubber and palm trees that form a shady roof over head, and along the boacb, the clear blue water ,of the Suiu Sea rolls lazy on the shining'' sand. In the trees monkeys skip back and -for.th or fight vigorously with, the crow s that I squawk and flutter and pick at tha mon keys until the latter give up tho yilght and beat a hasty retreat. Moros, in thdlr tight-fitting trousers and Jittle Jackets -wander aimlessly about selling emoroui- cries, buying In the market, or-watching a cock fight. Cockfights differ in Jolo from other e vents of the kind anywhere else in the world. Down in Cuba and over in Porto Rico a cockfight was always a formal af fair and took place after due notice in a regular pit built for tho purpose. A good round admission was charged at the door and a band played to drown the ex piring gurgles' of the defeated rooster. In Jolo a native puts a rooster under his ar,m and walks down the street until he meets another native, "who also has a rooster under his arm. The two stop and poke their birds ut each other. A crowd gath erssoldiers. Chinamen, Spaniards, and Moros. Money is tossed on the ground in the impromptu ring and in a moment mora the roosters are "fighting a desper ate battle. When the fight is over the owner of the crowing victor picks p his money and his bird and starts on down the street In search of another fight. In the lanceria. or "spear market" out side the city gate the soldiers and chance visitors to Jolo bargain with the Moros for their barongs and knives An Ameri can sees an ivory handledbarong that he fancies, motions towards it, and asks "quanta valu?" w'hlch is supposed to be puro Castillan for "What Is the value of that?" The owner will slap his hands together and holds up his fingers to show the price. 3TE he' slaps his hands three times and. holds Vp'"tfivto fingers, that jnpans So. The" American says'No, no; sether once. The Moro pokes out the ba rogftsydht Ameryan -tft.kys.i sadly and aoes away,iajinir-skdlhtft he"iisruot snv $5. Sometimes passengers come down on 1 the trips made by the government trans ports to the islands. They are ignorant of the wily Moro's habits and have no time to waste, so they buy the weapons without much parleying. The result is that the arrival of a transport causes the Moro spear market to assume bullish tendencies. Barongs that were quoted at $7 a half hour before, suddenly climb up 300 per-ent as soon as it known that a strange'iship is in" the harbor. Kriss knives feat were a drag" in the market and.' wore quoted at IS'.wUh few sales. ar3fyw worth $10, and the spears tJ BOKiters wwy iq inrw isi cacs reworwv 58 apiece. The marl-et 1 in an uproSr land' the excitement Is Intense. The newly arrived customers seldom disappoint the fond expectations of the Moro venders. A Major of infantry, free from the States, who come Into Jolo on our transport on Ms rtay to Xegros, made for Upmarket as soon as he landed. One of the soldiers of the garrison at Jolo had been bargaining for three days trying to fcuy a borons for $4 thai the J Moro owner asked $5 for. The Major saw this borong. "How much"" he asked. The Moro slapped bis hands togethor twiee. "Twenty doP.)r the soldier told the Maj r "A I 'Ijth: "I 11 iak Mi T Me the Ma-J r-ouue ae nut not aKt. a look at the Major and asked JtO for bis ba- rong. The soldier went home in disgust. As for the spear market, everything went to pieces. It was the wildest day on the Moro 'changethat the spear marke had xvitnessed in the memory of the 'oldest inhabitant. Prices simply went to the roof and the garrison of Jolo shoVlls heid ant1 said: "Everything's gone to pieces. lon't go near the market for a week Sometimes the Moros! are Invited to the receptions that are given by the officers to visitors or to tjie officers of the war ships in the harbor. The Moros bring their native instruments, which are chief ly collections of old iron kettles and tom toms played by women, and to the ac companiment of the monotonous waiiings of the native band the Moro warriors give sword and spear dances. In the fcpear dance, two warriors give an Imitation of their prowess on the field of battle. They carry big woden shields on their arms and each endeavors to touch with his spear the shield of the other. The war riors caper about, wave their spears over their heads, and give yells that would make a Sioux Indian jealous. Their cpears dart back and forth, and sudden ly one of them will strike the other's shield. The audience shrieks with delight and the kittlds and tomtoms are banged and hammered until the warriors are in a frenzy of excitement. They not. in frequently forget entirely that they are only gii'ing an exhibition and are ex tremely likely to drive their "spears through one anothr's -arms or legs if the referee does not step in and declare a truce. Even then it Is usually necessery for the friends of each warrior to rush In and seize him from behind and carry him away, probably telling him, In the Moro tongue how he could have killed the other man with just two more jabs. The natives are not irresponsive to the social attentions shown them by the Americans. The datos residing near Jolo frequently give lawn parties on their es tates, where they have bull fights, horse races, and other pleasing divertisements. The bull fights are different from the Spanish variety. The Moro fight is not between a bull and matadors, but be tween two bulls. Dato Calbi, whom Gen eral Bates had taken down to Maybun on the crusier Charleston, repaid the com pliment while I was on the island, by 'in viting all the Americans out to a party at his house, at which there would be Tiull fights, rooster fights, and horse rac ing. Calbi lives two miles from Jolo, 'near the water, and his guests went out :In the Charleston's launch and in the army tug from Jolo. The boats could not get close to tho shore on account of the coral reefs, and the visitors went as near as they could in small boats and then Jumped overboard and waded. There was a walk of half a mile through jungles and across muddy creeks and then the open glade was reached where Calbi had ar ranged to entertain his-friends. J Calbi Is one of- th& most imnorlanf nf ;bVhe d'atb3 Jirfiltti.

Two carlbu bulls were broti'ghl out by their owners, who held them by means of long ropes fastened around the horns. The animals were brought close together and then their angry passions were aroused by the master of ceremonies and his as sistant, who endeavored to start tho fight by twisting the tails of the bulls. Of course, each bull got the idea that it was the other bull, not a Moro, that was twisting his caudel appendage, and began to lower his head, paw the ground and bellow his rage, while the Moros whooped and yelled. Finally the bulls made a lungo at each othxr,' and as they parte'd one had a long crimson, strtekown his side. The bulls, rtiet again and Jockefl.r horns and stood a moment. Then ,a 'particularly hard yank, at their tails Ttjade thern leap to,one side, and. pno rushed straigrh into the yelling mob and made 'for the grand stand where the American'risltors were seated- The Moros yelled and-ran inevery direction, andf the Americans "hastilly climed ud to the top seat Ip the amphitheater or crawled under it. The bull charged past, pursued by his enemy, and both disap peared, crashing through the jungle and followed by their owners. Two more bulls were brought out, but absolutely declined to get mad or even feel bad, no matter how much their tails were twisted. They were led off in dis gust and two more were brought on. One of these gouged an eye out of the other bull and gored him in. tho side, besides trying to toss Dato Caibi's horse and charging the Moro women, who were gathered in an amphitheater reserved for their ufee. There were half a dozen more "events" as they would be called In sporting cir cles, and then the datos and their chiefs had what they termed a horse race, but which was merely an exhibition of riding and the various gaits of their horses. The Moros ride like Arabs with the big toe in the stirrup and their knees almost at the height of the horse's neck, sitting well back and riding with arms akimbo and yelling like Indians, Their saddles would arouse the scorn of any self-respecting Indian or cowboy in the States. They are wooden affairs, as wode and high in front as behind, and not only have thick cushions for the riders to sit on, but also slanting boards at tho rear, to which soft pillows coovered with red or green silk and embroidered witn flow ers are fastened. The Moro lolls back on his cushins as if he were in a rocking chair at the club. The proceedings were interupted for "a while by an impromptu bull fight not on the program. The bull that had been gor ed In the eye broke away from the tree where he had been tied and to secure re venge, started a free for all fisht with three bulls hitched close by. The spec tacle threw the Moros into convulsions of joy. The owners of the bulls finally se cured their pets and then the horseracing bian again. The wives of the datos showed their klli riding atride the'-hore and with their bjfggy trousers fluttering in the wind. The Utile son of Dafo Joakanain, brother of Calbi. on a diminutive pony, and followed by several slaves, rode proudly u and down a few times, and thence iriHereremonles announc ed the" a??fnJ&:?Jx nebuUs all re-nowsAd-frgluor--Bitf the-Americans had wearied of 'tne party and some of them went back to tbeir boats, while General Bates and his staff took two bags of Mex ican doiloar that the government cave Calbi and Joakanain as presents, over to CalbTs house, where the dato treated them to cakes and light wine. Life runs evenly in Jolo. Mr. Chuck, the interpreter, conducts a club for the, cers. where one raay sit in bambo chlr3 and read papers not over two months old and hear Shuck talk about he billiard table and the rocking chairs he Is gateg to get some day. Various ttqtnds are jseryjai. t jvjthput the aecompaaii&ent i." anivn wtsrao-sind rpreatiful voices arc ever heard in the club s best room: "Say. Shuck, what made you boil the beer." and hot "water in the absinthe frappe?" There-Is one sound that makes the place seem almost like home. When I heard It I wondered if if was the same cat that uced to sit on the billboard just east of Madison avenue.hear Sixty-first street. The Lieutenant In whose quarters I sat, assumed a listening attitude. His eyes gleamed with the light of battle, nolslessly took a spear out of the rack, and stealing "to the window, poised his weapon and let fly. There was a despair ing shriek in the darkness, as with a thud the spear stuck into the fence. The Lieu tenant went out and then came back into the light of the window. He held up a spear on which a dead cat was impaled. "That's tha fifth cat I've killed fn two weeks," said the Lieutenant. "Jolo ain't such a bad sort of a place." The cats are the best of Jolo. Tou fall over them when walking along the street at night, and they give concerts Immedi ately in the rear of every house. It has always been considered legitimate to horl anything at cat that was close at hand. This is what makes life hazardous atnight in Jolo. The things nearest at hand are spears and barongs, and one who doesn't wish to go to the hospital through poor markmanship on the part of the man who "thought it was the cat," must walk wide of feline concerts. It is distressing to walk along a Jolo street at night and have a spear whizz past one's head and quiver In a nearby .tree, while a voice from a window says: "I wonder If that was a cat after all." Whenever the 2,000 Chlnease, who form the bulk of the resident population of Jo lo, have the least possible excuse they set .off fireworks that would make ont think the Moros were not only attacking the town but blowing it up piecemeal with dynamite. The provost guard had to go down and hold the Chinease citizens at the point of the bayonet the day the Sul tan came into town, to prevent an' ex plosion that might lead' his Excellency to believe the mericans suddenly had opened on him with eight-inch guns gj 200 yards' range. The next day, when General Bates was to lea?ve, however, the Chinamen sent a committee to say to Ma jor Goodale that they wished to join in tho ceremony attending the General's departure. Permission was given, and when the battalion escorting General Bates and his aides marched down the Street of the Queen to the wharf, the Chinamen turned loose an explosion of fireworks that was like the letting go of a powder mill. Bunches of Chinese fire crackers, with 2,000 crackers In each bunch and with a giant cracker at the end of the string, hung thick from the branches of every tree along the way. When the parade started, the bunches were touched off, and the hilarious pop ping and booming that followed drowned even the triumphant strains of the band, and made a Fourth of July Celebration In as a family picnic on the Wooded Island. The beautiful $1,500 pearl that the Sul tan of Sulu tendered to General Bates as a present during their conference In the Sultan's palace at Maj'bun, and which General Bates had to declme, was not the only- gift that the General was offered during his recent diplomatic tour. The Sultan also offered the General a horse, saddled and bridled, and Dato Joakanain sent him two beautiful caribu bulls as a slight testimonial of his high regard. The General was gratified with his pres ent, but had about as much use for the two bulls as Dato Joakanain would have for a fur-lined ulster. He could not sell the animals, and it would have given of fense to Joakanain if he had given them to any of the native residents at Jolo. Just then the Charleston came Into Jo lo harbor, and the General had a bril liant thought. He sent his compliments to Captain Pignam of the Charleston and asked him to accept a slight present. Captain Pignam gratefully accepted and sent some of his sailors In a launch af ter. th,e present When the sailors saw the'two buffalo-bulls, the prospect of car rying the anlmals'out in the lalunfch over whelmed, themand, they fled in dismay. Captain. PJgnam heard their report, but was equal to the -emergency. He sent the ship's butcher ashore and the bulls came to the ship In the shape of fresh meaf, which the sailor men of the Char leston (July appreciated. But it was at Tawl Tawl that General Bates received his most unique uresent. The datos had been on board the Charles ton and mte the General late in the af ternoon, and, the conference being finish ed, the cruiser was to leave the next morning at daybreak. Just as the gray light of the tropical morning began to mae things visible, the watch on the Charleston descried a native boat making for the ship filled with armed Moros, and with something tied in a sail cloth lying in tho bottom of the boat giving terrible moans. The boat drew ud to the gang way and the Moros lifted the myster ious object and carried it up the side of the ship and left it a3 a present for Gen eral Bates. The sailors undid the package and found that it contained a big, wild-looking, long-whiskered goat of terrifying as pect an haughty mein. Captain Pignam insisted that the General should keep the goat in his state room. General Bates declined, and then had recourse to his previous strategy. He wrote a letter formerally presenting the goat to the crew of the Charleston. The crew re ceived the goat to Its bosom with the widest hilarity, and at once named it "Dato." Then with hose and soap and water they scrubbed the goat for two hours. This "Dato" did not aoDreciate It took three sailors to hold him while the ceremony was taking place, but when it was all over he was a goat that foh whiteness and true beauty would have made Mary's hlstdrical lamb blush with shame. His long hair was white and nicely combed. His whiskers had been trimmed to a fine Vandyke point and tied with blue ribbons. His horns shone back the morning sun. "Data" celebrated his reclamation from barbarism by walking into all the fresh paint he could find about the shlD and tracking It across the white decks. Boats wain Glynn swore terrible oaths and vowed to have "Dato's" life, but he had to restrain his passions and feed the goat loaf sugar instead, for the goat was the present of a Brigadier General of the army of the United States and must be shown respect accordingly. "Dato" won the love of the- ship's crew by his conduct towards the pfflcersl aris tocratic dog that slept on the brfdge'and never went forward or permitted himself to be fondled by common sailor men. "Dato" considered it his nrst duty to as sert his superiority over the Aoz. so h went aft with a chip on his shoulder look ing far trouble. The dog assailed aim. aad "Dalo" went after the dos, horns and hoofs. Itwas soon over, and the dog retreated to the bridge. The aaly reason the goat did not follow was because be could not cttsnb the st?o. bis education in combing steps being .limited.

Of course, "Dato" -was only a benight ed Moro goat when he came aboard the Charleston, but his education Is going on rapidly. Ho has developed a fine taste for rope ends, and for hats or Jackets that are left carelessly about, and has been detected chewing reminlscently on bolt nuts and jackknives.
