Children and Their Prayers.
From the Lady's PICTORIAL

l heard an amusing story the other
day. 1t was told me by one of our best
known writer's. He said that little
niece of his had been very naughty
little girl, and her aunt had to punish
her very severely. When she came to
say her prayers at night her little mind
was still full of wrath against her aunt,
but yet the child did not quite like to
leave her name out of her evening de-
votions, so she compromised matters by
saying, "Pray God bless father and
mother" ETC.. then after long pause
she added, land bless Aunt Julia, too
but not much" / do think it is SO
natural that little children should ex-
pect their small supplications to be
answered literally. | can SO sympa-

who said to his governess in puzzled,
half indignant voice: II can't do my
sum. I can't; and l did ask God to

she writes:

BOOKS AND MAGAZINES.

Scribner's Magazine for August is a
Fiction number, as has been the custom
for seven years. 1t contains six COM
plete short stories, by H. c. Bunner, T.
R. Sullivan, William HI. Shelton, w.
Orally Hewitt, Octave Uzanne and
Harrison Robertson, the author of one
of the most famous stories ever pub
lished in Scribner's, elbow the Derby
was Won.n All these stories are dis
tinguished by an individuality and del
icate fancy that make them of unusual
quality, even for the high standard of
short fiction in American magazines.
Mr.. Bunner, in "French for Fort
night" describes the adventures which
befel strict clergymen while living
with French family on the Bronx,
near New York; Mr.. Robertson's "She
and Journalism" is love story that
ends right; Mr.. Shelton in '"The Miss
ing Evidence in the Case of the People
versus Dangerking," tells an old-fash-
toned detective story of the most excit-
ing kind; Octave Uzanne's '"The End
of Books" is peep into the future,
when books and newspapers will be
furnished by the monograph instead
of type; IAN Undiscovered Murder"
by T.. R. Sullivan, is tale of real imag-
ination; while the element of simple
pathos is furnished in the little sketch,
Awaiting Judgment" by w. Orally
Hewitt, an English writer new to
American readers. The fiction is beau
tifully illustrated by Castaigne, Steiner,
Hatherell and the distinguished French
artist, Robida. In addition to the short
fiction there is an amusing instalment
of George w. Cables serial story,
John March, Southerner."

Chicago, Oct. 30.-A daring robbery
was committed in the heart of the bust
ness centre of the city this afternoon
The amount of plumber secured is not
exactly known, but was given as $4,000
in watches and other jewelry.
Soon after 8 O'Clock G. W. Brethauer,
the senior member of the firm of Bre-
thauer & Co., wholesale jewelers., II
Washington street, left the office, 1eav-
ing his son in charge.
The office of the firm is in room on
the second floor of the building. 1t is
located in the southwest corner and in
plain view of the occupants Of the
Office building roundabout.
Young Brethauer says he was bend
ing over a showcase full of watches iEs
the rear of the room, when two mel
entered the door.
One of them carried a revolver in hi$
hand and the other was armed with e
piece of lead pipe about two feet on
The jeweler was commanded to throw
uO his hands, which he was not SLOW
in doing. The two men then ordered
him into the vault, the door Of which
stood open. Brethauer demurred and
one of the men, he says, caught him by
the throat, threw him into the vault
and pushed the door shut. The thieves
then proceeded to ransack the show
cases and scoop the watches into a
gunny sack. The door Of the safe
stood open and the bandits emptied the
cash box in it, obtaining considerable
sum of money. All this required only
few moments and the men soon made
their escape. The senior Brethauer re-
turned about $3.50 and soon heard
sound of pounding on the vault door
The door was hastily opened and the
imprisoned man taken out, nearly ex-
hausted. So far no trace of the thieves
has been obtained

bloodless.
In the second both were wounded and
unable to continue. Now they are to
meet again.

Hotel Gurlich and is being taught a
trick with swords by one of the best
fencing masters in France in order that

THE RING.
Out in Three Rounds.

Baltimore, Md, Oct. 3O.-Stanton Alb
bott, of England, and Charles Geh-
ring, ex-amateur champion of the
United States, fought at the Academy
of Music tonight. The fight was an
nounced to be a six round go.
From the start Gehring began to
force the fight, and the thousand spec
tators applauded every time he landed
blow.
Abbott protected his face with his
hands, and the body blows he got were
when he was retreating.
The first two rounds looked like hon
ors would be even at the end of the
sixth. Abbott was waiting for an open
ing to get in his right and coaxed Geh-
ring on.
At the beginning of the third he got
the opening he wanted, and landed d
staggerer on Behring's neck. Gehring
then became more cautious, and again
Abbott became apparently careless. He
led Gehring on and when he got the
chance he wanted he made a half
right arm swing and caught Gehring
under the ear Gehring fell, but was
up again in eight seconds.
Abbott measured his distance and
again let his right go. This time he
caught Gehring on the point of the
jaw and Gehring went down and out.

CHINESE FORCES DEFEATED.
Minister Denby's Advices to the
| State Department..

washington, Oct. 3O.-Minister Den
bv. in a cable to the state department
from Pelxin today, says the Chinese
forces have been defeated at CHEN
len Cheng and have retreaIted to
Moukden. He also reports that the
Japanese have taken one OF the chi
nese forts at Port Arthur.
The scene of the first engagement is
lust across the Yalu river in Manchu-
ria, and it marks the first real agrees
siye movement by the Japanese on
Chinese soil. The Japanese are sup
posed to have formally entered upon the
campaign with Moukden. the Manchu-
rian capital as the objective point.
Unless they are fully prepared to make
winter campaign, something hereto
fore unknown in eastern warfare, they
will be obliged to force the fighting, as
only fifteen days remain before cold
weather comes.
In the neighborhood of Port Arthur,
where the Japanese success is report
ed. the winter climate is not so severe,
and operations may be maintained un-
til much later. Experts in Washing
ton believe that Port Arthur cannot be
reduced by the Japanese without the
use of heavy siege artillery, and as far
as reported, the Japanese are not sup
piled with this. Inasmuch as the cap
ture of Port Arthur would give Japan
control of the gulf of Pechili and cut
off the Chinese capital from commune
cation with the sea, it is believed the
Japanese will make most determined
effort to capture the fortress. 1t is be-
lieved they are prepared to do this,
even if it involves a long siege and a
winter campaign, and the superstition
is borne out by the fact that the agents
of the Japanese government in this
country have quietly bought up vast

Edinburg, Oct. 30-A conference Of the
Scottish conservative associations was
held here today. A large number of
persons were present and Prime Minister
salisbury made a speech in which he
scathingly criticised Roseberry's speech
at Bradford. He described the agitation
against the House of Lords as herring
drawn across the path of home rule.
He did not believe Roseberry was in
earnest in his proposed vague resolutions
regarding the House of Lords. 1t would
be harmless and. if submitted to the
country, it would be in no wise like the
foreign referendum to which Roseberry
had likened it. He himself would not
speak against a referendum. In fact. he
thought 1t decidedly advantageous in the
form in which it existed in America for
good government and stability of the
government. Doubtless Archbishop
Walsh's well drilled battalions would
pass Rosebery's resolution against the
voice OF the country.
DO you" he asked, Imagine the res
olution would possess any moral author
being could imagine that England or
Scotland would abase themselves so far
as to put their necks under the heel
Of south and west Ireland? It is lu-
dlcrous. They may pass all the reSolu-
tons they like, but bill embodying such
proposals will never be accepted by the
House of Lords and, therefore, will never
be recognized by the courts of law. No
BILE without a considerable majority of
the people being in it's favor
Salisbury urged that on several oc-
casions in his experience the House of
Lords had supported Liberal measures
against Conservative opposition. If the
House of Lords had become virtually a
conservative body, 1t was because Glad
stones Irish policy had driven them in
that direction. If the Irish question was
once moved out of the way, the House of
Lords would gradually, though perhaps
slowly, settle back into the old position
in which the parties were evenly based. "

eminent. of the country over entirely t, a
