Since the arrival of the oavalry on

Tuesday the rirlkere have bet n very qalet and did not npeat their drills with the aocompaaylng display of ebot gone, rule* aad revolver*. The mult of today'* raid would show that th* arm* hav* be so

oarafully hidden away. Early this morn-

Italy or too Lowary. The sheriff and a

rough eearoh of the home* tor weapon* and ammunition, and whenever they cam* asroe* a person for whom they bad a warrant, they placed him under arm*.

Then wu not the cllghteet resistance made, exoept by on* man, wbo was

Shortly after tha arraals ware made on the Bow- ery four strangers appeared and rlaltad the ealooat. They harangued the men

One of them, wh# was on erutoh- ea, stayed around tba Bowery during the afternoon and tha other three went to 1.1 ttla Italy where they repeated, their tarangne. Just what effect the arrests will hare on tha other strikers remains to be seen. Very little work was aooom-

pltahed at the dam today aad only fonr additional laborers wara working with (he SO wblob are quartered at the dam.

STRIKERS LOOKING FOR JOBS.

Croton Landing, N. Y., April 10.—One of the most notable effects of the pres- ence of the military at the Croton valley dam is the anxiety exhtbitod by many of the more poaceful of the striking Italians to pack up their little belongings and sock work elsewhere. F'ully 50 of them left the Croton Landing depot today bound for New York. None of them would say very much, but all of them acknowledged that they were going to look for work iu some other quarter as

they wished to avoid trouble.

the Hocr arair, instead of ooattnulng with the hosiltal oorps to whloh they had

pledged tfceusdves upon leaving the United States.

Apparently the Portuguese authori-

ties at Lourenoo Marquee 1 ad doubts as

to the actual neutrality of these men for

the party wss detained many day a at ths port tefore they were ell iwed to proceed over the railroad t) Pretoria. The dls-

patobea stated that a latter from Mist

Mies Barton was said to bate declared that certain members of the party were

known to her and believed to be going under true oolora.

The officials here say that nothing can

be done by the government to prevent each violations of faith as are reported from Sooth A trios. Xhs men did not gc oat with arms and so dll not fnlBU the legal description ct a filibustering party wbioh would have enabled the United States authorities to pievsnt their departure. It would appear that unless the

Mr. Moody of Massachusetts, advocated the amendment. Ha potohed out tbat tba

preposition la tbs MU waa designed to

orate a rival of tbs oanal and giodatts survey la tba navy department. The

navy bad eoagbt many times to sontrol It. Caiu miss lens bad tssn appointed. AH bad repettad agalnat It. To pleoe a

portion of toe work nailer the control of

step In tbe wrong direction and stocli te resisted to tbe end. To yield wool! be to luour tbs brat danger of militar- ism so much dreaded. Cess; survey work

A lively dstete followed. Mr. MoKne of Arknnese supported the amend mint.

Mr. Ldttlelleld of Maine oppcseu It In a

vigorous speeoh to wbloh he eulogized the navy and rebated Mr. Moody for

ridiculing the work.of naval otBceve and the naval observatory. Mr. Cummings of New York also opposed the amend-

ment, arguing that the proposed surveys

should be mede by the navy, not by a

Esml-polltloal bureau like the ooast and

geodetlo survey. He poked ton et the

snparlntendent of the survey who, be

b.rifled the work as “pie.” “Nobody knows anything but me,” It

Senator Hoar*! speech on the Philip- pines waa a masterly production, un-

doubtedly tho crowning effort of tho

long nnd 11 lustrous public llfo of Massa- chusetts* senior senator. It waa eloqu nt

CAMEO CARVING.

Tool* mud M»th*a* Kmplwyed la tlM tturkiunu*UI|».

All the tools used by the cameo carver would make but a huudful. The worker sits before a wheel turned by a pedal. Tool* occupy a small corner of the table surface oti which the worker's hands rest while he holds the shaped stone or

shell beneath the needlclike drill. The III tie pointed instruments which are used to drill resemble those employed by a

dentist, end indeed it was from the cameo

carver’s kit that the dentists got many of their ideas when the tools now in use by them came to be manufactured. 30 years ago. The drills vary in thickness according to the | tort ton of the kgure or design to he executed. Some are as fine as the point of a cambric needle. A small chine receptacle also stands near, tilled with oil aud diamoud dust, and into this the workman frequently dips the tool during tin* progress of his work.

The camro cutter's mcupetkei Is very exacting. He ran pot in only a few hours* work at a time a* a usual thing, because of the tension on his nerves. A quavering baud um.v be responsible for the single stroke which wi|J spoil a week’a work, lie must have un eye almost like a microscope ami a very delicate touch, he must Ik* an artist iu soul and as

skilled a craftsman as is a watchmaker, he must know how to model and draw and he must have a knowledge of chem- istry, so ns to remove offending spots. The w ork is executed in relief un mauy kinds of hard or precious stones, but es-

sentially the cbaleedoiiic variety of quarts aud on shells. The cameo cutter himself prefers onyx because of its dark and light layers, which throw out in bold re-

iici a wnntr u”iu, nnj, nuainsi it uibib

background. He evolves his picture by removing all that portion of the whits stratum rrmuiuiug after the bend has been completed. Sapphire blocks are

used, cnrneliau. turquoise, amethyst and numerous otl.er stones.

It takes about one month to execute a

portrait on onyx, while much less time ia consumed if the work is done on sheik There is ulways great danger of the latter breaking, and its durability, too. Is not great, so that shell, os a rule, is not as desirable as the harder materials. A portrait on onyx will cost $200. while one in shell may be bad for $30. The inquiries for these are rare, and building up a patronage is slow and is accomplish- ed mainly by satisfied customers influenc- ing others.—New York Post.

Cnlrwoww BIHhdsrs* Cardinal Manning did not even know

the precise year of his birth, let alone the exact day. Francois Sarcey, the celebrated French critie. never did know either the year, mouth or day of his birth.

Lord UcaconaheLd has somewhat added to the uncertainty regarding his birthday by telling Lord Barrington of his having been born iu a library. Many people contend that he meant his father's plaen in John street, Bloomsbury, and others point to a private house in Adeiphi terrace. The exact day, however, haa not been settled. One account says Dec. 21, another Dec. 31.

Mystery and uncertainty surrounded the true birthday of Arthur Wellesley, ufterward Duke of Wellington. Most people will imagine, and rightly so. that it is difficult for a countess—his mother was the Countess of Momingtrm—to give birth to a son in her own castle without kuowiug it, nnd yet neither she, her bus- band uor others know exactly on what day it was that the boy was born! Yet this is what occurred on the birthday of the famous duke, and to this day the only really reliable statement about it ia that he was horn in 17GB in Ireland.— hew York World.

BECAUSE SHE LOVED HIM SO.

It Is a muoh disputed point whether

good parts make good aotors, or whether the brilliant and popular playwrights of this and any other day owe mors to their Interpreters than to their own brains for

reputation. "Heoauee She Loved Him Ho'* had a new York run with a oast of velebrltles and has had three representa- tions In this city with and without this e4j met, and without dealing In dispar- agement on.the one hand or tnlsonse

The play rank Is superlative sa a

comedy ot nicest ooneeptlon, rl-.vsrtst construction and artlstlo portrayal.

The aotual quarrel of a yonng married oouple and the make believe quarrel cl their eldere, with Inoldental Incidents formed the story of the pity and led to situations of sneb humorous man net as

to excite the heartiest merriment. Clare Dlokey presents tbs extremely anspleloos and ultra jialoue wife with One skill and appreciation of the demands cf the part, she nas the advantage of a vary attraotlvs fane and figure, as well as a graosful stage preeenoe, and Is thoroughly con-

versant with her part In all Its details. Though the wife she presented was the kind that one would rather sea some other fellow possess, yot It was a faithful con-

ception o' the part, In wbloh she demon- strated rare talent and capability. Her unfortunate husband was ospltslly pnt oa by Thomas David, and be bore hlm- aelf manfully and well, winning the sympathies of the andlenoe hr hie easy and natural ocncepilou of bis rnls. John Wither by and his wife, by John Daly Murphy and Eflie Germcn, are a lovaable old oouple, and a prettier some, or oar

more falttfolly presented then that In whioh they first appear In their peaoi ful and happy home Is seldom presented. Their stlmnlstsd branch of domestto

For Oversight.

One Says It Marks Ebb Tide of

Religions Observance.

For tb« Ont tlm» Id min; ;mti Fail M mm mtmm — 1 h* ghat nhnrnhaa of thta

olty without toy Fail day observanea. It haa been the anatom for yean to bold Fast day aar\ 1 aa la the raornlag at least la two oburvbee of tbla olty. Yesterday ao onion serrlasa were beld. It raaioa

that It baa alwaya been enitomary for tbe Governor's proclamation to be mailed lo all olargymao la tba state, but tbla year tbla waa not dona. In none of the caurobas waa tbs proelamatlon of me

governor read last tsncday aa far aa ouuld ha luarned yesterday. The proelamatl. a

wblob baa appeared In tba columns rf tba dally |span for tba past two waeka waa aa followa:

“Conforming to a t'me-honored onstuir. Inaugurated by tba pioneers and early eeltli ra of Now hlngland. venerated by our

Fatbere, and very generally obaarved tbrougbout that seotlon of our couotey down to tbe praaenl time, I do now, by the authority vested In me aa Governor, and with tbe advlos and consent of the hlieoutlve Connell appoint Thursday, the nineteenth day af April, In the year if our Lord, one thousand nine hundred, aa a day of Fasting and l’rayer, to be ob- airvtd ty the people ofJMalne In a manner

whloh. In tl 11 enas«t year of the nlne- t enth century. shall appropriately and reterently reoall and recognise the associ- ations and memories which still olurter around this annually reoarring day."

Instead of the day being observed Ii Portland by fasting and prayer It waa

niaikeu ny (easting ana reoseotion.

Thera was a general saipenalea of bad- ness and the people took advantage of all the attractions whleb were afforded for amusing themselves. Ibe new bicycles were ti I <d for tbe llret time by many people. There was a big orowd at the ball game between tbe P. A. V. and Hates c.'llege taim. The Portland Wheel olub went on Its llret ran to Poland'• Hand- ing, Falmouth Fotsslde where they tn-

j >yed a good dinner and athletic sports. The matinee performances In tbe theatres were well attended while toorei cf peopls took tbe oars for Yarmouh and the Cape, end for Klverton, and whiled away the hours of sonshloe In thess resorts. Hun- drsds of oottsgvrs went to Peaks, Great l.lamond and Lg>ng Islands to gst their oottages in readiness for the summer

Dtiinirg. Many Deads of families passed tbe day In oleaalng up tbs refuse of winter from the lawns or la preparing the

gsrasns for the plaollogs. Gov. Hollins of Mew Hampshire, who a year ago made some observations In regard to the noo-

obaervanoe of Foot day In his state wool! I eve been grtatly edified had be been In Portland yesterday where no sound ol oburoh bells disturbed the consciences of Ihose who were bidden by His hxosllenoy the Governor, to fast and pray la oooord- aooe with the time nonored onstohl of oar fathers.

Hev. A. H. Wright of the tit. Law- r noe Congregational ehurch who has heretofore partlolpsted In the observaooe of Fast day by holding religious services ssld jetterday:

"There seemed to be no demand for

Btrvloes and to 1 presume that will ac-

count for the reason none were hell. Here on tbe hill we have usually held a

Union ssrvloe with the Methodist ehuroh, but Fast day Ibis year oomlng upon oon-

f-rence week, Hev. Mr Hovard Is absent Irom tbe olty and so no servtoes were ar-

langed for. 1 believe that we are now on

tbe abb tide of prograaa aa far aa religious ubterTance la oonoernad. 1 am foroad to

acknowledge wltb regret that the tendeaoy of the time# sterna to be to tb-

leree tbe Babbath aa It la observed on the Continent, with a morning In ohuroh and the afternoon In staking recreation.

From year to year oar Fast day congre- gations hare besa growing smaller and smaller aad It Is Tsry discouraging to ar-

range for elaborate services wbtsb the

people do not aasm anxious to attend. Io tbe minds of many Christians hast day baa erased to ba wbat It la Intended to be

and Its true elgalllennoe bas been loti sight of. Tba failure to bold aerrtoea this year la more of aa accident than anything alas aad la partly due to tbs day oouilug ao aeon after tbe 1’aaslon Week, wblob la

being observed mare and morj by tbe oburohaa of some denominations." "I vary much regret that no union sar-

Tleea ware bold In this olty today," said Hot. Lewis hi alTern, tbs pastor of Ply- mouth Free Baptist ohuroh, Inal eve-

nlng, In speaking of tbe snbjeal. “It baa seemed Tory stroage and 1 bare foil guilty all day although 1 kayo conducted a

funeral. 1 had supposed that there wes

to hare been a meeting aad waited yesterday to reoelTO word from the offlaara of tbe Clarions olub, who hays had charge of them matters. Although nothing oame along 1 thought but Uttlo of It and

ooaoludod that It would not look well tor mo to go ahead aa 1 nan eomperatlTsly a

Portland, A f»M •. IW*.

IN the manufacture of '‘Munsing" Underwear quality is the first consideration. Made, as it is, of a plated fabric from the finest yarns with

flat elastic seams that will not rip, thoroughly stitched button-holes, each garment finished with silk crocheted edges and silk tapes, it possesses all the merits of the more expensive underwear and the

prices are very much less. The garments are all

closely woven, yet are very elastic and cling to the form better than any ether underwear made.

We have the exclusive selling agency of this famous Underwear for Portland and vicinity—our new lines for Spring and Summer for Men, Women and Children, are ready now and invite your in-

spection. At 50c. we show a light weight cotton suit (for

women) in either high neck, short sleeves and knee

length or low neck, sleeveless and knee length. At $1.00 one of finer cotton Oneita style (opens

across the chest) long or short sleeves in both knee and ankle length.

Another is of fine light weight lisle thread, white and ecru, low neck and knee length with short sieeves at $i.75—mis one opens up ana aown in

front instead of across the chest. At $2.00 'a beautiful soft finish Mercerized

Suit, Oneita sfyle, white and ecru, high neck, long sleeves and ankle length.

In Vests we have a fine light weight cotton, white and ecru, long and short sleeves, silk trimmed, at 50c.

A Mercerized cotton (looks like silk,) in high neck and long sleeves, white and ecru, at $i.oa.

For Men we show a splendid line of Munsing Union Suits.

Fine light weight cotton in both long and short sleeves, ankle length, at $1.00— the best suit ever

produced at this low price. A fine ecru Lisle thread at $1.75, and a Mer-

cerized Cotton in high neck and long sleeves, in flesh color and a delicate shade of blue, at $2.50.

For boys and girls we have a light weight cot-

ton Suit, high neck and long sleeves, ankle or knee-

length, open straight up and down in front, at 50c— a practical, common sense garment for children.

Kl'RSERY dbKERY. GENERAL CARE OF CHILDREN IN

ILLNESS. ✓

(Continued from last week.)

By Christine Terhune Herrick. When a child Is III w ith scarlet fever or

measles, the thief danger to others Is from infection from the germs sc attered

during desquamation. The principal risk to the patient Is from a chill that would mean a check In the eruption, or

a development of some of the dangerous scquulae of these diseases. To prevent chances of infection, which is especially serious in measles or in scarlet fever, too much c are cannot lie tak* n. Curtains should come down and carpets come up as toon as the disease positively de- clares itsetf. The furniture should ba reduced to it's smallest dimensions.—a bed for the child, a cot for the mother or

nurse, a table upon which to keep medi-

cines. another at the head of the bed for

the child's food or toys. Tbe nurse should wear a waah dress, and Is safe In pro-

tecting her hair with a cap. The cloth-

ing the child wears and the bed linen

should be thrown into a disinfecting so-

lution and allowed to steep in this cov-

ered for long enough to destroy all germs before It is sent to the laundry. A disin-

fectant should also be mixed with the water with which the floor is wiped up. When possible the attendant should ea*. her meals hi an adjoining room, but she should not go into any other part of the

house without hanging at least the out-

er clothing she wears while in the sick room.

Happily the time has gone by when ev-

erything that bad been used in an in-

fectious disease had to be burned. The carbolic spray can disinfect clothing, etc., as well as can sulphur fumigation, and is infinitely less unpleasant. ,

Against the risk of the child's catching cold, every precaution must be taken. I

lowing scarlet fever for which the only cause that could be guessed was a chill that must have come from-the floor of the room in which the sick child lay having been wiped up with a wet cloth one day when he was supposed to be fairly con-

valescent. I have also known long-continued deafness coming after measles because the patient sat five minutes in a

draft between the door and the window on one of the hottest days of the year, both children were In the last stage's of the disease and were thought to be

past all danger. As a matter of course, even more attention should be showed when the disease is at its height. Espe- cial care must be exercised when the child Is submitted to tt home-made Turkish bath. This Is given by putting him in a cane-seated chair placed over

n pail of boiling water, and enveloping child, chair and pail in blankets. No less precaution Is necessary If the patient is given a sweat in bed by means

of hot water bags placed upon him and

heavy covernlngs heaped upon him. When such expedients are resorted to in order to bring out the eruption or sup- plement the action of the kidneys, the

danger of a subsequent chill is most serious.

N< ver should the mother allow her- self to lose heart or become discouraged about the little patient. ThU is much gasier to preach than to practice, but hard though it may We. the mother should always strive for cheerfulness. In these days, when we are learning more and more the power of psychical conditions, who can say how much effect the attendant's attitude of mind

may have upon the sick person? To help the mother keep up courage, there is the knowledge that a child * recuperative forces are so great that he may appar-

clan's dictum is backed by wide ami wise observation when lie says, “Never de- spair of a child's life until the breath is actually out of his body."

There was ao response. “Deacon White”—this time in a tender

voice—“Deacon White, will you lead?” Still ao response. It was evident that

the deacon was slumbering. The preacher made a third appeal and raised his voice to a pitch that succeeded in wuking the drowsy man.

“Deacon White, will you please lead?” The deacon rubbed his eyes and opened

them wanderingly. “Is it my lead? Ne—I just dealt.

At the last moment she came aboard and asked to see the captain, who joined her shortly In the saloon. “What can 1 do for you?” he Inquired reassuringly, seeing her embarrassmeut.

“I want your advice, captain. I am in a most unconventional position. The fact

is I—well—my fiance ia very ill on your boat. How he happened to be here I did not know, and there was no time to find out, bo I came to take care of him until

be is well. Then—well, of course, then we shall be married.” And she rose, blushing, incoherent, evidently excited and nervous.

There was a pause while the captain tilted his cap over one ear the better to acratch his head.

“I guess Barwood is the man you moan. He took passage for Cook’s inlet. Coin to change at Sitka for the Dora. Yes; he’s real sick with fever, but”— The captain paused, evidently at a lots, and she continued apologetically:

“It is all an odd proceeding, 1 know, but— Oh, 1 could uot let him go so far alone when he was ill. We have been engaged for some time, and 1 was to join him at Seattle, but was taken suddenly ill. 1 have no near relatives to know or care what becomes of me,”—and her mouth curled in a weary smile—“so 1 came us soon ns 1 was able to travel. He failed to meet me, as I expected, and at the last moment before the Princess sailed 1 learned that he was here and ill. 1 have come to take care of him. He needs me.” And the sudden dignity was pa- thetic.

The captain looked uncomfortable and blurted out:

“But he don’t need you. lie is well taken care of.”

She saw no hidden meaning in his words, but hastened to say:

“Pardon me. 1 am certain you ara

careful of the comfort of your passen- gers, but 1 mean a woman’s constant care and nursing,” and a fond look shone in her eyes under which fatigue had drawn dark circles. Then the captain hud done with temporizing:

“There is a woman with him now.” With both hands gripping her breast

as though his words carried a hurt she said vaguely:

”1—1 thought he was alone. Do you kuow who she is?”

“I ain’t much acquainted with either of 'em. Only 1 know she Is a hospital nurse

and seems to have taken care of him dur- in a spell of the fever he had a few weeks ago”—

“Ah,” she interrupted, "he has been 111; that was why he never wrote.”

“Mebbe so,” the captain admitted dry- ly. "Anyhow he was taken down with a

relapse the day before yesterday, when ho came aboard. He sent for her at once, aayln as how she’d nursed him all through the first bout of the fever mul he wanted her ag'in. She come right away and—well, she's hen here with him ever sence.”

A relieved expression crossed the girl's face.

"She is a professional nurse, no doubt. ,We shall not interfere with each other. Perhaps he will waut me too,” and she smiled with rosy assurance. The captain's dubious shako of the head was effected while she gathered her parcels aud handbag.

"Before I go to my stateroom may I

gee him?” '•^je captain led the way and knocked

at a closed door. It was Quickly opened, and a fair, slight woman In checked gingham, with blond hair tucked into a

nurse’s cap, came out. "Mr. Barwood is asleep,” she said in a

whisper, “and must not be disturbed.” She looked inquiringly at the captain, who pulled at his whiskers with one baud and jerked the other toward his compan- ion.

“This young lady wants to see Mr. Bar- wood.”

“But I have his physician’s orders to admit Dobody,” the nurse laid coldly, still blocking the door. The visitor shrank back timidly, but the captain, with pity for both softening hi* Tolce, insisted, “Well, I guess he’ll have to suspend rules In favor of this young lady—Mr. Bar- wood’a wife that Is to be."

It was the nurse’s turu to blanche aud shrink.

“Mr. Barwood ii asleep now,” she said weakly, after a heavy pause. ”1 am going on deck for some fresh air. Will you come too?”

There was so much more Id the mannet

t than words that the girl followed obedi- ently. The captain excused himself, aud the two proceeded above in silence. By this time the stesmer was well out Id the sound. On the right towered the moun-

tains—gloomy mountains of chaos, the grsyuess relieved only by the emerald of glaciers or the foamy veil of n cascade. To the south the verge loomed distant, half bid by mists from the under world. For a space the women stood motionless, cowed by the sense of nothingness. Then the nurse spoke.

"Excuse a seeming impertinence, but * may 1 ask what claim you have upon

Mr. Barwood7” The reply was cold with suppressed

Mger. ”1 may excuse it better wbeu 1

know your right to ask." But she tails

unon a coll eljaae near, and the proud

head waa bent when the answer carnet /“The right ol his afUnced wife, who has | left all-honor, YHends, every thtag—to take ears of him to lore him to—to mar-

ry him.” The nnrse spoke with a low and pas-

sionate tremor. The other toyed with the end of the rope, nor raised bar eyes while she spoke In wooden tones.

“It is all odd, unreal, but it does not occur to me to doubt you. Strange though you are, I am sure you are hon- est. He lores you. He will msrry you. As for me, whst shall I do?" abe ended In a whispered sob to the aea, but the waters were busy with their endless striving, and a screaming eagle mocked them both.

The nurse came softly and rat beside her. “You have left all for him, and so

haro I, and now wo have both lost him. We have only each other."

“Thank you,” said the newcomer simply. “But it la only 1 who need suffer, only I who am to blame. I should not have come. But I thought he would want me—would need me,” and there waa a pitiful note of extenuation in her voice as abe rose aud paced the deck, “but 1 ace now that 1 waa wrong, for this is the end.”

"But you love him?” "Spare met He loTes you.” The nurse went to her and took her

band. “How do I know that he lores me? 1 know that he sent for me; that he asked me to be bis wife; to go to the lands of gold with him. 1 promised, believing him free, believing that I was

dear to him as is the half of life to me.

But now, ah, ha may—nay, be ought still love you, and”—

"Let us see,” the other interrupted, and, the nurse following, she led the way nor paused until they stood again at the door of the sick man's room. "We will go in together, and then”— She said no

more, for at that moment a man's voice was heard, high, querulous; "Margaret! Margaret!"

Both women entered. The nurse advanced.

"Yea; I am here. Do you want anything?”

"Only you atay with me, dearest.” His voice quavered, but with tender cadence. tiis eyes were giazea wuu unmum. one

brought him a glass of water and slipped her arm under his head that he might drink. His eyes roved restlessly about the room. They alighted on the still, gray clad figure by the door. HU teeth clatter- ed against the goblet. The water dripped from his nerveless lips. Pointing with one

bony band, be said hoarsely: “Who Is It, Margaret? Look there! Who U it?" The figure sank into a chair out of hia sight, and the sufferer fell back on his pillow with a moan of relief—“Thank Godl" •

That night he raved with fever, and neither woman left his bedside. “Marga- ret," he would gasp, “send her away if she comes again." Then to the other: "I don’t know you, but you look like a ghost. When you meet that other one, her ghost, tell her—when 1 heard she—was dead 1 waa sad. Then 1 was sick and Margaret came, and—was 1 sad still, Margaret?"

“Yes, very much grieved, <tetr." “Of course 1 did not want her to die,

for 1 loved her once, but now—ah, now 1 love you, don’t I, Margaret?" And he held both her hands and cried over them like a tired child. And Margaret wept, too, but the ghost only grew whiter and slipped out and up to the deck. Low hung and wan the moon gleamed sickly through a window sheet up at her with dry, wide open eyes. “You brave old thing!" the woman said. “Your heart is dead and yet you smile and shine. Well, so shall I”—

In a day or two his fever was broken. ‘You do not need my help now," she said o Margaret. “Ho is out of dAnger. He will soon be well, and you will be hsppy." Then she made her eyes shine and her lips smile. “And when—some time—let him know he was mistaken. I did not die. But do not tell him yet. The ‘ghost* must trouble him no more."

At Sitka, on the site of old Barnnoff castle, there is a high knoll overlooking the sea. Oue evening at sunset a woman stood there and watched a small boat put out from shore. It whs the Dora, bound for Cook’s inlet. On the forward de^k stood two figures. The man seemed loan- ing. as if for support, upon the shoulder of the woman in nurse’s garb. Both faced tbo sun, a copper globe on the hori- zon. Before them, all the western sea

and sky a glowing caldron; behind, the dim mountains, the darkening east, and

LOSTON COLBY ALUMNAU.

Boiton, April 1.—The Boston Colby alumnae aaeooletlon was organlaed at the Parker honse last evealns, with a banquet and speeches. Colly oollege Is now

la Its eightieth year, but aot until 1871 wars woman admitted. The women

graduates bow number one hundred and thirty-two. The alumni association* of Beaton and New York alty are flourishing, and the alumnae of the oollege have new effected an organisation.

Twenty person* eat about the tablet last algbt, Mies Minerva Lcland '84, presided, and Miss Helen MacGregor Han- toom, ’87, Introduced the speaker*, among'whom were President Nathaniel Butler, Profs. Hall and Hobsrta ot ths college, Mias Graoe Matthews, daan of the women's division, and Mrs. Neill* Baksssan Donovan, daughter of Rev. Dr. Freno-s W. Bakaman of Gbaleaa. Tba officers fur the ensuing year are Mis* Mi- nerve Laland, ’88, eroaldantt Martha Tracy, 1897, via* prssldset; Myie Nelson, '97, secretary; Mies Ulevla Herrlman, '98, treasurer.

of the most disagreeable people In the neighborhood."

"1 said so.'' ‘‘But be got up and ahoveled all tbe

snow off his sidewalk.” ”1 know it. But he didn’t limit hlm-

True to Hta Word. “The price* on these suite,” announced

the placard in tbe window, “will be cut In half.”

They were $18 soits. The enterprising dealer, as you probably conjecture, subsequently cut the 18 horixontally in two In tbe middle, added the upper and lower halves together and sold the suits for $20 each.—Chicago Tribune.

Portland Me ) New York, April 10.—While today’s

market continued to show appearances ol irregularity almost e«|ual to that ol

yesterday its undertone on the whole was much better. It opened with a very unceitain tone and during the morning move 1 very irregularly. Between noon

and 2 o'clock there developed a general rise which made noteworthy headway In Federal Steel, American Steel ft Wire and Baltimore ft Ohio. In the last hour, liowever, there wan a general setback which still left the markot as a whols well above the closing figures of yesterday. Pronounced weakness in sugar was not particularly explained, woa an

intluenco in tho reaction at tho close. The American Steel ft Wirestocks which hail shown tho greatest strength reacted something over 1 point.

Tiic features of tho railroad list were

the B. ft O. stocks, which advanced on

heavy buying by the same brokers who acted for the Pennsylvania railroad m

their purchases of Baltimore ft Ohio slitalr Hitman miwsFlia ittff) TllP Kt.Of V THIW

is that tho Pensylvania will guarantee 4

per cent ou both classes of stocks which

theoretically should give them a value of par at least. The »tul>born strength

| of Missouri Pacific in a rather weak market was chiefly on rumors that the

general consolidation of the Gould Southwestern lines was making decided

progress and the talk of a dividend ou

Missouri Pacific was not generally credited, still there may bo one as the

earnings justify it. The local tractions wcie weak without anything new attending their course. London bought about lo.OOO on balance. A large number of al-

together gratifying statements of railroad traffic were submitted and tho most

important feature of the day was the ease of the money market which was

more pronounced than at any time since the relaxation of money set iu over a

month ago.
