Welded.

Well, you welded, and around your Ire
Irvine two great joys; for some one calls
you wife,
And chid-lips mur1nur: "Mother!' and
you smile
After long years of sorrow ard heart strife
Smile up into the eyes that meet your own
Feel the strong, sheltering arm around you
thrown
And with the lovehest words of love you
while
The hours away no longer dark and lone.
You feel the clinging of your child; you feel
His arms about your neck; his kisses steal
Away the sigh that trembles to your lips
When faithful Memory doth some face re-
veal
From out the fading past; but etars sigfs
Are not for your sweet lips-for your bright
eyes,
What earthly joy can now your JOY
eclipse?
For, choosing well, your love could be but
And yet l fancy that upon your brow
There is faint, sad shadow resting now;
The Bonded head DROPS lower, till at last
Your weeping face in your pale hands you
bow
And give yourself to grief. Is it not SO?
4 voice calls to you from the long ago
4 hand is stretched toward you from the
past
And 10y is lost in bitterness and woe!
You wonder why the tears your eyes should
fl;
You whisper to your breaking heart: BE
StiN!'
But the heart means with yearning I'M
sufficed-
Vasue yearning, which the world can never
I'LL!
For women love but once; and If denied
That first sweet love, they live unsatisfed,
C'linging to 4 to the cross of Christ
\ cross wherein their hearts crucified!
AND this is life-the life which must
lead:
A life of dire distress and sorest need;
A l:fe which longs, but veinly longs, for
rest
Rest for"the hands that toil--the hearts that
blead.
Aye! this is life. Heavens mercy on us,
sweet!
Be 1t that you and | no more shall meet
Until the grass is green above the breast,
And Gods white daisies grow at head and

GLYNN'S WHITE CAPS.
Night Riders Are Said to He COmmitt-
Ing Outr02es.

Brunswick, Ga July 7.-CSpecial )-Spe-
Gals to The Times Advertiser from near
Sterling station recently tell of several in
stances where the law has been thrown
aside and force prevailed. The latest news
from that section tells of continued depre-
dations of masked men, regular organiza-
ton of which is said to exist. The organ
ization visited the home Of J. o. Timmons
a few nights ago with the intention OF
whipping him. but 1ilnmons was warned
and drove them off. After their flight Tim
mons took his wife and two children to
his fathcr-in-laws house. While Timmons
was escaping with his family without bod
lily harm, the torch WAS applied to his
dwelling, ami that. with the contents, was
entirely consumed.
Tuesday night about 10 o'clock the. home
of Malachi Green, in the same section OF
Giynn. was visited and an orphan protege
named Schriver was called for. Green sent
the boy to the door and returned to bed
Shortly afterwards startling cry was heard
followed by sounds of a departing vehicle.
Green and his son feared trouble. They ran
after the buggy. following it for two miles
They found SchiNer near Camp Walker
Schliyer told Green that he was forcibiy
taken away from home by two men, one or
whom laimeG to be a detective, ana Wnen
Camp Walker was reached two other men
Joined them. They tried to force SchriVer
to tell them what became of $126 they ac-
cueed him with stealing from Charley
Quinn and s25 from one Ransom Schriver
protested his innocence, VIXEN a sack was
thrown over his head and an effort was
made to hang him. Shriver believed his
door; had come, drew his knife and cut
blindiy right and left, cutting two badly.
The men released their hold and Schriver
ran for his life, meeting Green and his son,
as stated.
Only a short time ago in the same section
whitecaps severely whipped four men for
disorderIy actions but it IS generally be-
leVed the last mentioned deserved their
beating The boy Schriver is spoken OF as
an honest, straightforward person.

THE GOSPEL MESSAGE.
Reports Made to the WOman's Foreign
Missionary Society.

When the fourth days session Of the
twenty-fifth annual meeting of the execu-
tive committee Of the Woman's Foreign
Missionary Society began at Foundry M.
e. Church this morning Miss Huston re-
ported from the Bombay conference.
One of the missionaries from Bombay
told OF how the Christian Sunday school
met in a Hindoo temple, which the Hindoos
took pleasure in preparing and cleaning up
for the Christian service. This interesting
statement of heather tolerance was re-
ceived with considerable quiet astonish-
ment.
The report also contained a contradiction
of the statement published on Brahmin au-
thority, that no Brahmin had ever been con-
verted to Christianity. A list of eighteen
names of converted Brahmins whom the
writer knew personally, was given.
Mrs. e. B. Stevens reported on "Our For
eign Fields,' having especial reference to
the Bengal conference. India.
DR.. Ernsberger of India supplemented the
report. She spoke of the medical work In
south India.
Miss Lena Stewart rendered solo, after
the close Of DIR. Ernsberger's remarks, which
gave general pleasure.
At 1890 the convention adjourned for
lunch.
Tomorrow many Of the delegates will be
heard In the various Methodist churches of
the city.

NAVAL BATTLE EXPECTED.
Fleets of China and Japan Reported
on ChefoO.

LONDON, October 27.--The correspondent
Of the Pail Mall Gazette at Chefoo cables
that the fleets of China AMI Japan are now
off that port, and that a battle is expected
shortly.
YOKOHAMA, October 27.-The Japanese
have gained, decisive victory at Kiuren
Castle over 10000 Chinese. The enemy fled
toward Ant,lng. The japanese captured a
quantity of booty, thirty guns and 800 tents,
as well az a quartity of provisions. The
Chinese lost 300 killed, a number were
wounded, and many were taken prisoners
Dispatches received here confirm the re-
ports of the battle betN cen the Chinese and
Japanese forces after the latter had crossed
the Ydlu river.
1t is added, that the whole of the Japan
ese army afterwards advanced nortliward,
and that Kiuren Castle, which was held by
a large force of Chipese. was attacked upon
all sides. The Chinese made a desperate
defence, and the fighting was very severe.
The Chinese are reported to have number
ed 10000 men.
Another dispatch repeats the assertion
frequently made that the second japanese
army landed en- the east coast of the penin-
sula of Kin-Chow. upon which Port Arthur
Is situated. The Japanese army, accord
ing to these dispatches, now occupies the
neck of the peninsula, thus cutting off
communication between Port Arthur and
the main land.

PRESIDENTS CALLERS.
No One Questions Him On the New
York situation.

The President had more callers today
than yesterday, but there was the same
rcarcity of politicians. Great as Is the
general desire to know his sentiments re-
garding the political situation in his own
state, so far as known no one of the Larty
leaders has ventured to approach him open
ly on the subject, and the brave newspaper
men who have questioned him pointcdly
have failed signally to obtain any light on
the great central question as to whether the
President will inlorse the candidacy of
Senator Hill.
Among the earliest visitors at the White
House were Gov. Werts and staff of New
Jersey, Mr.. George w. Boyd of Pennsylva-
mia and a party of ladies, and Chief JUS
tice Fuller of the Supreme Court. These
visits were purely social. The President
received the visitors in his office, and had
a pleasant word for them His official call
ers during the forenoon were Attorney Cen
eral Olney and Secretary Herbert, each of
whom presented several business matters
requiring action OH the part of the Presi-

Mr.. MORTON'S COACHMAN
The Report of the Spseial Board Received
ct the Department +
The Only ucstion nj Issue-Secretary
CARLISLE to Make the Deci-
sioa shortly.

The case Of James Henry Howard, Mr..
Morton's English uudsr-coachman, Is once
more before Secretary Carlisle for action
The special board which was convened at
the Ellis Island Immigrant station to make
a thorough Investigation Of the case, in or
der to determine whether Howard had vio-
lated the alien contract labor. law in COM
ing to this country, submitted its report 10
Secretary Carlisle today. 1t was first re-
viewed, however, by Mr.. Stump superin-
tendent Of immigration. He turned all the
papers over to the Secretary without COM
ment or suggestion. 1t Is understood that
the evidence adduced by the board Is SUBJ
stantially the same as was submitted to
Judge Lacombe in hearing the application
for a writ of habeas corpus to prevent the
execution of Secretary Carlisle's order Tor
the deportation of Howard. Judge La
combe said 1t was shown conclusively that
Howard was a personal and domestic ser
want" within the meaning of the statute,
and as such had perfect right to come TO
this country, but he was compelled to deny
the application for his release, because the
Secretary Of the Treasury had supreme ju-
risdiction in the premises, and he having
decided that the man had violated the law,
the courts could not interfere.
The Only Question mt Issue.
The only question. at issue is whether
~
all right but II not SO. a foreign coach
man cannot be imported into this country
under contract without violating the con-
tract labor law. At the first consideration
of Howard's case Secretary Carlisle held
that he was improperly here and ordered
his deportation. Judge Lacombe took an
entirely contrary view, but said he was
without Jurisdiction. Secretary CarleFe
thereupon ordered a reconsideration OF the
case by a special board of experts. His
action will be governed by their conclu-
sions. If they hold that Mr.. Morton vio-
lated the law in the importa tion of Howard
the latter will be sent back to England
and Mr. Morton will be prosecuted, and
upon conviction would be liable to a fine OF
81 900 and a years Imprisonment. II the
board agrees with Judge Lacombe that
there has been no violation of law In this
case Howard will be set at liberty at once
and the case will be dropped altogether
At least, that is the status of the case
as set forth at the Treasury Department.
Mr. Stump refuses to disclose the findings
of the board. AS to his own opinion on the
subject he said 1t will be the same as the
Secretarys, whatever that may be- The
papers I'm the case are very voluminous
and it will take Secretary Carlisle some
time to read them. He will therefore hardly
be prepared to act for several days.

REPUBLICAN PROSPECTS.
Reports That Have Been Made to
HeadTunrters Today.


Col Tracy of Illinois, president of the
League OF Republican Clubs, is In the city,
and called at republican headquarters to-
day. Col. Tracy has just returned from a
tour of New York state, and he thinks Mr.
Morton will receive a magnificent majority
He thinks Illinois will figure very promi-
nently in the column of states to be made
republican by the coming elections, and
that a number of democratic Congressman
will be defeated. Col Tracy reports the
organization of republican clubs through
out the country as being excellent and in
a position to make themselves felt on elec-
ton day.
Mr.. E. III. Nebeker, ex-United States
treasurer, also called at republican head
quarters during the morning and gave Mr..
Apsley a rose-colored report of the republi-
confident the republicans will make signal
gains In several Indiana congressional dis
tricts, and he would not be surprised to
see Congressman Holman defeated.
Capt Mckee of the republican committee
returned today from Winchester, where he
made a speech yesterday with the repub-
iican candidate for Congress in the seventh
district. Mr. r. j. Walker. The court house
uos crowded and tie audience was an en-
thusiastic one, although there were many
Democrats in Il. The meeting was said to
have been larger and more enthusiastic
than the one held by the democratic can
didate Mr.. Turner, few days previously.

CAPT. sCHslrrrBEHGER BAILED.
The Police OHicial Indicted for Ac-
cepting Bribes.

NEW YORK, October 2I.-Police Captain
Max Schmittberger of the Tenderloin pre-
cinct, who was yesterday indicted by the
grand jury for accepting ibribes, gave him
self up at police headquarters today, and
later was taken to the criminal court house
to give bail in the case Of bribery for which
he was indicted yesterday.
Ex-Wardman Cannon, now on the rolls Of
the twenty-fourth precinct, was also indict-
ed yesterday, but has been in Ireland for
five months. He went there just after the
exposures which implicated him were made
by the Lexow committee. He was charged
with receiving bribes In the same cases as
those against his captain, Schmittberger.
Capt. Schmittberger's attorney, w. f.
Howe, claims that the indictment OF his
client is defective and predicts that it will
be thrown out of court Judge Cowing fixed
the amount of the captains ball at $500,
and this was furnished by Thomas Smith,
a contractor and builder.

MAY TAKE PART.
Secretary BisselPs Idea of Offensive
Partisanshfp.

Postmaster General Bissell announces
that he will not dismiss clerks who take
an active interest in political organization
and work. Civil Service Commissioner
Roosevelt, in a recent report on the in
vestigation into thu Pittsburg post office.
stated that four clerks had been guilty of
offensive partisanship in the same degree
as a republican clerk whom Mr.. Blssell had
dismissed for the offense. The Postmaster
Geaeral says this statement was made un-
der a misapprehension. He did not dismiss
the republican clerk, as alleged, but had
him ordered into the field. Not having dis
missed that republican clerk, the Postmas-
ter General states that il would be incon-
sistent in him to dismiss democratic clerks
who take active part in political matters.
1t is probable, however, that their stations
of duty will be changed, as In the former
case.
