Adams viii Not Resign.

A, q. Wetherby, of Boston, a heavy own
er in the silver mines of Colorado, is in Oma-
ha en- route to the mineral fields. Mr.. Weth-
erby is said to be an intimate friend OF
Charles Francis Adams. When asked con.
corning the report that Adams intended to
resign and that Holcomb was to be his sue
cessor he said: 81 do not know Holcomb
personally, but you can state that Mr.. Adams
IS not going TO resign the presidency of the
Union Pacific, 1 have this from his own lips
and no longer than several days ago, when
was leaving Boston. Mr.. Adams was
greatly disappointed over the failure
Of the passage of the Outh-
waite bill, but feels confident that
such legislation will sooner or later be en-
acted. All this talk about his intention to
resign, think is but the resulto gossip, Just
like any other rumor that is put afioat To
be candid, 1t would be hard TO find n man TO
fill his position and, in case anything should
turn up that would incapacitate him, his sue
cessor would undoubtedly be an eastern
man. But, as affairs stand at present the
presidency Of the road will be filled by Mr.
Adams He is the representative OF tho
Boston faction and is regarded by Mr. Ames
as reliable man for the position he occu-

JAY GOULDrs ROAD.
The New line Between X ansas City
and Chicago His Scheme.

The report that another road, known as
the Chicago, Kansas City 4 Omaha, Is to
be built between Kansas City and Chicago
has been o source of much conjecture in
railway circles. Connected with the report
is tho statement that branch lines win DO
constructed to st. Joseph and Omaha Con
servatlve railroad men are of the opinion
that the project is not an Independent one,
but that IL is q scheme devised by some OF
the Kansas City limos in order to centraligo
ports of delivery. There are seven roads
plying between Kansas City and Chicago at
present but the bulk Of the tra1ic is mauip-
ulated by the Alton, 1t having the most
direct route, Those who have given the sub
joct a thought are of the odinion that the new
road is project of Jay Gould and he has de-
vised this scheme in order to have direct
communication between points on his great
southwestern system and Chicago. As yet,
the inside features of the project have not
been made public, Walter Brown, of Kan
sas CITY, is president OF the company that is
reported TO be ut the back of the enterprise
and the fact that he has in the past been asso-
ciated with jaw Gould projects has led to tho
theory that the new system is backed by tho
railroad king

heard her try to speak If you will show me
your house will carry her home for you"
The lady was too much affected to speak.
Silently they walked a short distance until
they reached pleasant home not far from
the theater.
When they entered the parlor the mother
took her child and motioned Cheriton to a
seat.
In few moments the lady returned.
'My baby is not hurt at all, and is now
sleeping as if nothing had happened. Mr..
Cheriton, how can thank youa"
II am thanked sufficiently already" he
replied.
Then there was silence. It was a strange
meeting; the actor in his stage costume, his
sleeves rolled UP, his hair and mustache
singed and h1s face blackened by the smoke,
while near him sat beautiful woman scarce
able to restrain her tears.
He waited until she regained some COM
posture, and then he rose as If to go.
Goodbye" he said. Il am glad to have
been able to give you your little girl. Isup-
pose you have nothing more to say to me,
so goodbye He held out his hand as he
spoke and she took it in both Of hers.
Yes, l hare something more to say, and
l will say it whatever you may think Of me
for doing so.
"Listen. Six years ago you thought me
heartless and cruel because l told you
that it was impossible to marry you,
though you thought l had given you
to understand that I loved you. Well,
l did love you. Perhaps it is I'M
womanly to say it, but L did love you.
The man | married-the father of my little
girl-ded before the baby was born. He
was a good man, good husband, but / did
not love him. l loved you all the time and
sacrificed love and happiness for what l
thought to be duty. Charlie, l love you
still; you have saved my little girl-will
you save me? Save me from lonely, I'm
happy future and from all the misery of
bitter memories. VIII you, Charlea"
Well, every thing had seemed very
strange to Charlie Cheriton that New
Years Eve-the place, the baby, the fire,
this meeting-but somehow it did not seem
at all strange when he passed his largo bare
and blackened arm around the slender waist,
while the Well-rounded head with its fair
hair rested upon the smoke-begrimed shirt
which covered his broad shoulder And he
thought of the title of his play-sA little
child shall lead them"

"Ah," thought Cheriton, as he fastened
away, "the child was left at home and,
doubtless, knowing where her mother had
gone, followed her to the theater."
By this time the fire was all over the
house and the auditorium was filed with a
dense mass Of smoke. But needless of the
scorching heat, the binding and suffocating
smoke, and deaf to the warning cries of

Weatherford, Tex, Constitution, June 5.
A reporter of the Constitution having
learned that Mr.. l.. NJ. Frey had received
the cash $4,000 on ticket No. -, s47, which
he held in the Louisiana State Lottery, and
OF which he made mention at the time of the
drawing, called on Mr.. Frey for confirma-
ton of the report. Mr.. Frey cheerfully did
so, and added that the ticket was collected
by the First National Bank OF this city for
him without exchange. We have often
wondered II the reports Of the character OF
men who have hitherto drawn prizes in the
Louisiana State Lottery were as claimed,
these prizes always appearing by the news
paper reports to TALL into the hands OF hon
est, hard working aud deserving men. III
they are to be judged by Mr.. Frey they have
all certainly deserved the prizes, for there
is no more Industrious, cnterprsng and
deserving "a man in WeatherfOrd than L. Nj.
Frey, the 1eweler. MIR. Frey has only been
in Weatheriord "A short time, but by strict
attention TO business, honest work and lu-
diclous advertising in The Constitution and
other home papers, he has built up the

A Message From the Sea.

There has just been received at the
National Museum, TO be placed in the fish
cries section, an interesting souvenir OF an
Arctic whale fisher which Capt. j. w. Col
Inns, the superintendent of that depart
ment, greatly prizes. IT is an old fashion
ed, hand moider, swivel harpoon, which
has quite "a story, as CLEANED from the pa
pers accompanying it, While in the Oh
kotsk Sea last summer the ship Cape Horn
Pigeon, commanded by Capt. l.. Nathan
Rogers, captured "a whale, in the blubber of
which was imbedded foreign substance.
On investigation this proved TO be har
poon, broken OF at the Junction with the
lance, which had been in the whale over
thirty years. On the hinge of the harpoon
was stamped in plain letters, IS. Il. d., 4"
ship Thomas Dickerson,' and the name
OF the maker, not so plain, could also be
made out. This was the first and only
messenger from the good ship Dickerson,
which sailed from New Bedford in 1856 and
was lost the next Year in the very waters
where the crew of the Cape Horn Pigeon
secured the harpoon over thirty-two years
later.
