Don't Fear the Grim Specter.

have all known men who have waited
tor death so long that they have been
able to joke about it. But a story
from Santa Cruz rather goes beyond
anything w have yet heard in that
line. There vas a fellow down there
who had been sick of a fatal disease.
He and all his friends knew he must
die, and it was only a question of
time. 1t mighthappen any moment.
They decided that they should not be
taken unawares, and so they had, |
think, at the suggestion of the inva-
lid himself, a dirge composed and
words written to be sung over his
grave. This they rehearsed carefully,
and the invalid attended and gave
some suggestions as to howit should
be sung. Determined that he should
have the benefit of his friends and the
pleasure of their society, they got up
a picnic for him and they had agreat
time. They sang all the merriest
songs, all the usual choruses, "Raz.
eel Dazzel' and all the rest, till they
ran out of music. Then when it came
time to go home, they got into their
wagon and sang the dirge all the way
back to town. He is alive, l believe,
yet, and it is limited that the pleasur-
able excitement attendant on the
composition and rehearsal of that
drige has done him more good than

IN POOR HEALTH.

Queen Victoria and the Prince Of
Wales Not as Robusta as Formerly.
LONDON, Special.-Upon the authority
of a court official it is stated that neither
the queen nor the prince of Wales is in ro-
bust health. The queen, whose health has
hitherto been generally good, has suffered
of late years from more or less acute rheum-
atism, and this ailment is accompanied by
an indisposition, common among less ex-
allied persons so afflicted, to enter into en-
gagements involving public appearances for
any remote date. The prince of Wales, like
other members of his family, finds that fire.
quent change of life and scene benefits him
greatly, and, though not a man of very en-
during physical strength, he has been gen.
rally able to fulfill his public engagements,
not always. however, without suffering the
consequences in the recurrence of some of
the ailments to which he is subject. Oflate
he has found himself unable to maintain
all the activity of his earlier days, especially
in regard to the sports incident to this sea-
son Of the year. In some respects the prince
is less robust than the queen. and though
in fairly good health, is advised by his
physicians that his constitution is one need
ing considerable care and only moderate
exercise.

Exploding a Ghost Story.

In these days, when the mysteries
of so-cailed haunted houses are not
thought beneath the attention ofsci-
entific Investigators, it is interesting
to trace the operation of natural
causes in producing seemingly super
natural results. While q shock is
given to the imagination by these
disclosures there is room for the exer-
else OF a pleasant fancy in conjuring
up the Impressions which resulted
from the original faith in the myster-
les thus cleared.
These reflections occurred to me on
hearing an explanation of the ghost
ly apparitions connected with the old
Swan house in Dorchester and the
strange sounds which were a~ssociat-
ed with them. 1t turns out that the
footballs heard in the front room on
the lower story at night were due to
an echo of the sounds of passing feet
on the gravel sidewalk, produced by
the peculiar shape oftheroom, which
projected outward in the curve of a
circle. The ghostly figures which
were seen in the cellar by persons
Peering through the windows from
the street We're nothing morenor less
than lead statues that were removed
here from the grounds.
The "ghost" fleeing from the old
house early in the morning in the d.
rection of the family tomb, which so
alarmed a servant girl, turned out to
be a young man passionately fond OF
sport, who, hearing the sound of a
game bird near the house, had hastily
seized his gun and gone in search of
it, %neglectlng in his excitement to
change his night clothes tor his Or
binary dress.-Boston Post.

Successful Second Attempt OF "a
Milwaulkeean at Ashland.
ASHLAND, Wis, Special Telegram,
Charles A. Schwamb, a well known
real estate dealer of Milwaukee, who at
tempted suicide here Sunday night by cut
ting the arteries of his wrist, made a second
and successful attempt at elf-destruction at
an early hour this morning. He has been
at st. Joseph's hospital since he was found
on the street Sunday night in a half-dead
condition. At the coroner's inquest to-day
the hospital wa %exonerated from allblame,
and the fact was established that the.sde-
ceased came to his death through poison ad-
ministerd by his own hands while tenn
porarily insane. Schwamb wasrecently ar
rested in Milwaukee on a civil suit for tho
alleged transportation Of money given
to him by an old couple to pay up .
mortgage on some property. He gave
bonds and was released, and it is thought
the matter 50 preyed upon his mind that
he became insane. Schwamb's relatives in
Milwaukee have been notified and the 70.
mains will probably be taken there.

Professional Artists a Terror

Professional Artists a Terror.
Art stores and the dealers in ar.
lists supplies are not supported to
any degree by professional talent, as
in fact no dealer cares to cater to
that class o! trade. Professional ar.
lists are a terror to business men, for
they seem to have no ideas of ways
and means of t%ransacting business,
and think it is all the same whether
they pay in a day Or ayear. Then the
successful men want you to toady to
them and submit to insolent ref1ec.
tions on the contrasted ideas of all
engaged in trade. They will force
their pictures whether they are good,
bad or Indifferent, and when the deal
er demonstrates they turn a scornful
nose and caustical]y comment on the
terrible lack of art culture among the
uneducated.
There are men in the art supply
business who have informed me that
their most sincere wish was that q
real professional would never cross
the threshold of their stores. The ar
lists who have had sense enough to
forego the ambition to become famous
and turned their pencil and brushes
into commercial work have found q
reward commensurate with the cost
OF early training. There are a dozen
commercial artists in St. Louis who
to-day claim incomes ranging from
$4,000 to $4,000, that lift them from
the perjury and uncertainty of a Bo.
hemian whose life is devoted to catch.
ing the public fancy. The public is
too whimsical, and although you may
captivate it for g. while, fashion will
lead the crowds away from yester.
terday's favorite. Charles E. Ault in
Globe Democrat.

Children From His Divorced Wife.
ST.. LOUIS, Special.-Interest in the
sensational divorce suit of Coates VS.. Coates
was renewed to-day when Mrs. E. H.
Coates received a letter from DR.. Coates,
her former husband, announcing that he
had left for parts unknown, taking with
him their two children, Emma, aged seven,
and Mamie aged five years. When Mrs.
Coates was granted a divorce it was stipu-
lated that the father should have the chill
dren with him at certain intervals. DR..
Coates came to st. Louis from Montgomery,
Mo-, shortly before Christmas, and sent for
children. This morning. the mother re-
ceived a letter from Coates stating that he
and the children were hundreds of miles
away and that she would not see them
again for for four and one-half years. Mrs.
Coates is Frustrated with grief. DR..
E. H. Coates shot and killed DR..
Keith in st. Louis a couple OF
years ago. He claimed that the shooting
was provoked by Keith's attention to his
wife. Keith was a man of nearly seventy
years of age, and Coates assertions were not
credited by the friends and acquaintance
of the old doctor and Mrs. Coates. Coates
was captured after the shooting and put in
Jail on a charge of murder in the first de-
gree. When his trial came up his defense
was insanity. The plea was sustained by
the jury and Coates acquitted, but sent to
the insane asylum. After remaining in
the asylum for about three months he was
set free on the grounds that he wasthor-
oughly restored. The police were notified
Of the abduction to-day and furnished with
accurate descriptions of the children and
father so as to telegraph all over the country
to have them intercepted. Emma, the
eldest child, is a blonde with sharp feat
ures, blue eyes and of spare build. She is
slightly under size and has a peculiar walk,
dragging her feet. The younger, Mamie, is
also a blonde, with blue eyes. Her features
are full and she is considered pretty.

1T IS SENATOR ANDER

He Receives all the Republican Votes
Of Both Houses in Joint Session.
HELENA, Mont, Special Telegram,
The first United States senator from
Montana was elected to-day, and, as fore
Swallowed in the caucus, Col. Wilbur F.
Sanders is the one SO honored. At noon
the Republican members Of both branches
Of the legislature went into joint session.
There were thirty-eight members present.
two more than a quorum. On the first for
NAL ballot Col. Sanders was elected by the
unanimous vote Of the body. The lobby
was crowded, and when the result was an
nounced cheering and hurrahing nearly
raised the roof. 1t was several minutes be-
fore order was restored. Col. Sanders was
brought to the floor and made a short
speech, accepting the office. His appear
ance created great enthusiasm. A bal
lot for second senator wa then
taken, with the following result: Lee
Mantle of Butte, IL; Lieut.. Gov. Rick
ards, II; E.. D. Leavitt Of Butte, 8; J. G.
Powers of Helena, 4: L. H. Hershield of
Helena, 8; B. Platt Carpenter of Helena, /.
The joint session then dissolved until to-
morrow without balloting again. The fight
for the second s%enatorship is still waging.
Judge Knowles of Butte could be elected if
he wanted it, but to-day he absolutely re-
fused to stand for senator. The most
prominent West 81 De candidate now is Lee
Mantle and of the East side T. G. Powers.
The vote given Richards and Leavitt is re-
garded only as complimentary. It is inn
possible to predict a result. The Demo-
Gratis of the legislature attempted to hold a
joint session to-day, but could not get a
quorum. It is rumored that Hauser, who
was defeated by Maginnis yesterday for the
~senatorship, is purposely preventing a
quorum SO as to keep Maginnis from being
formally elected by the Democrats.
William Fisk Sanders was born in Cat
taraugus county, New York, in 1884. In
1854 he began the study of law at Akron,
Ohio. He was admitted to the bar in 1855
and associated with his uncle, ex-Gov.
Edgerton. He married Miss Harriet p. Fem
of Talmadge, Ohio, in 1853. He entered the
Union army on the breaking out of the Re-
bellion and served with bravery and dis
t~inction until 1858. when he resigned, owing
to i'll health, and returned to Ohio. His
former law. partner having been appointed

persuaded to start for that territory, which
he reached after many hardships.. The

where they stopped and the colonel engaged
