restaurant, received call from the waiter
recently. The waiter wanted the lawyer
to act for him in Il suit for separation

right to prefix he title of Count to 1t. he

MISSING STEAMERS.

NEW YORK, March lit is suggested
now that the reason why the missing
White Star freighter Naronic never has
been sighted is Because she foundered a
few days after she left Liverpool. A
theorist who has studied the weekly hy-
geographic bulletin issued today thinks
that there might be- some connection be-
tween the Naronic and a raft passed on
Feb. %, in latitude 55:26, longitude 22:5.

at Baltimore from Rotterdam aud Sunder-
land on March T. Tine Delano is now on
her way to Rotterdam. All she reported
at Baltimore was that when she passed
the raft (which was large one, dimensions
not speclfied) she was about 400 miles west
of the northwest coast of Ireland. The
raft had on it about six feet of broken
spar, and, the report says. had probably
been adrift some time. Very likely this
raft is drifting in the northwestern current

LIQUOR AND LAWMAklNG.

JEFFERSON CITY, No., March 1.-THE
general assembly is hopelessly involved In
the confusion of its own ideas and is utter
ly unable to intelligently direct its work
toward an adjournment sine die. The
senate has been two DAYS considering one
appropriation bill, all because few MEM
hers wanted TO make an attack upon the
normal schools and waited until the last
to show their bands. The mouse Is AT odds
with the members divided INTO factions
fighting all bills that may come up,
whether good or bad, because OF the
chance il affords TO play even.
The house today under suspension OF
the rules, passed the senate bill 10 prevent
bribery aud corruption in elections The
bill is similar in many respects TO the New
York law, limiting the campaign expenses
of candidates aud requiring them to fur
nish an itemiZed state ment under oath OF
the amount expended or promised during

by a candidate to any voter is made bribery.

A GHOST ON SENTRY.
The Corporate Thrilling Tale Of tho Zul
War.

The Corporars Thrilling Tale Of the Zulu
War.
Some of the old timers in the British
army are excellent story-tellers, and
the guard-room, where they are wont
to hold forth, is the place above all 9TH
ers to hear good yarn. Here is one
told by lance corporal of the -th
regiment, which had lately returned
from the campaign in Zululand, in the
Main Guard, I'D" lines, Curragh camp,
Ireland.
''Of course you've heard" he said, ad-
dressing himself more particularly to
recruit who had shared in the glories
of disasters of that untoward war,
show two companies of our regiment
were left at L to guard part OF the
commissariat train while the main body
went in chase of horde of Zulus
which we had that day encountered.
''Of course, too, you've heard how
they failed to return as soon as was ex-
pected, and how night came on and
found our little band isolated and at
the mercy of thousands of the fierce
enemy, who were lurking all around in
the dense bush.
perhaps you know how our dear
captain-Gob bless him-had the bags
of -four, the biscuit tins and wagons
formed into small breastworll
around us, and how at dawn the next
morning, by their aid, we iwere ena-
bled to beat off the attack of the
enemy, who outnumbered us ten to
one; how tho captain. next evening,
when help was still delayed, assembled
the men, telling them that the only
chance he saw of rescue was to sum-
mon assistance; that he could see 10
