They also object to the lowering OF tho

or to restore tho monarchy which 1t had
displaced.
THE DEMOCRATIC. MINORITY.
The minority report, signed by all the
Democratic members OF tho committee
except Mr.. Morgan, dissents from the
majority mainly in regard to the man
ner in which the conduct Of Minister
Stevens is treated in declaring protec-
torate. They says there is no valid roa-
son and no course OF dealing in our past
relations with those islands which ius-
titics interference by the United States
with tho political informal affairs OF IIa-
waii, any moro than with those OF any
other independent state or nation in
this hemisphere. Therefore they can
not concur in that part Of tho report
which cxoneratcs Mr.. Stevens from

ipation in the events which led 10 the
revolution.
DEMOCRATS FOR ANNEXATION.

To Get Out, He Had to Wriggle Gu. of

Rpeman John Yeo, of No. 4, had a
remarkable escape. He was on the
roof with his company and when he fell
be was so tightly pinned down that he
had to wrigg!e out of his clothes in order
to escape At the Emergency Hospital
he said: "When [ struck the bottom ]

There were flames all around me and
plenty of smoke. My clothing was

that's the way got loose-undressing
myself there in the flames, with the
ruins piled over me and still falling.

WOMAN AGAINSY WOMAN.
BY MRS. M. E. HOLMES.

searching the wing. Crouch down, for
heavens sake.
She stepped back and drew the win
dow quickly, but swift as she was, she
was not quick enough, for Davis, with
two policemen and several of the SER
wants, stood in the doorway
As Davis was going down the stairs
she met the others, full of the pris-
oner's ESCAPE, and jumping with
woman's intuition to the conclusion that
Valerie was hiding something, she led
them burriedly to Lady Alice's apart
ment, and flung open the door just as
Valerie closed the window.
"What do you WANT" asked Valerie,
with all the hauteur she could sum-
mon.
Zone of the men has escaped, mad
anne, and we are searching for him.
He must be in the Castle, for the po-
lice down stairs have nevermoved;and
if he had gone out they must have
seen him." explained the butler, re-
spectfully.
In the Castle-nonsense." Valerie
said, scornfully.
mot nonsense at ali, Miss Ross, an
swered Davis, sharply: ''he is not only
in the Castle, but in this room.'
w w udU you LlOeli.
Valerie's eyes flashed with the fire
that was burning in her veins.
"What I say search outside the
find I'm right
Valerie made a move towards the
window.
Give me your lantern she said TO
the policeman, who was gazing with
admiration at her beauty. Il will
show you how false this woman's
words are'
She grasped the lantern, and held it
up high, then beckoned the men out.
Paul Ross drew back farther and
farther; he could see the policemen's
faces, but he drew himself behind
slight curve in the masonry, and es-
capped their eyes. Not so Davis, who
was peering out.
"Look'she cried, suddenly; "behind
there-he is there, tell you!"
She was roughly pushed aside-the
light was suddenly extinguished by
Valerie, and mingled with Davis ex-
CARNATIONS and the murmurs of the
servants, came the sound of groan,
kind of shrek, then the noise as of
something clutching and falling-then
all was STILL
''What is it?" muttered the police
man.
They hastily lit the lantern and
stepped out-nothing was to be seen.
The veranda came to a sudden break
beyond the curve, and the tall, beauti
full woman, who stood pale as death
and transfxed with sudden horror,
knew that her wretched brother had
gone from her side forever-from the
hands of Justice; gone with all the
crimes unpardoned On his soul-gone
| to his death.
In one second she realized this, and
| with sort of broken shrek she stag
gered back, and before they could as
sist her, fell sensless to the floor.

Sources Of Ivory.

The chief source of ivory is that
obtained from the elephants of Africa
and Asia. Ivory so obtained may be
distinguished, owing to the African,l
when first cut. exhibiting hardly any
grain, being first of a transparent
tint, afterward becoming lighter in
color. Asiatic, when first cut, is like
African which has been cut for some|
time, but becomes yellow by exposure
to light The African has closer
texture, and is capable of being more
highly polished than the Asiatic val
riety.
Besides elephant ivory, other SUBJ
stances have been largely used in the
carving of the middle ages, notably
walrus, narwhal, and hippopotamuS
ivory. 1t is interesting to note that
King Ohtere Of Norway visited KING
Alfred the Great in $50 A. D., atteI
a walrus hunt in the North Sea, onal
of the objects of which was the obi
tanning of walrus ivory. Another
very important source of ivory is that
obtained from the mammoth, the exIl
tinct Elephas primigenius.
Large quantities Of this ivory have
been found in the frozen soils of Sill
IBERIA, it being said that nearly all tho
turned ivory work Of Russia has beeII
made from this so-called fossil ivOryIH

THE BURNED THEATER.
Considered One of the Finest P1av-
houses in the West

Sons10ered One of the Finest PIay-
houses in the West.
The Davidson was considered one Of
the finest theaters in the West and was
supposed to be fireproof. 1t was erected
by John and Alexander Davidson, of
Chicago, formerly of this city, in 1890
81 at cost of 100000. The Emm
Juch Opera Company opened it in Sep
TENDER, 1891. The building was de-
signed tor hotel ana tneater combined
and an immense fire wall was built be-
tween the theater proper and the hotel
to guard against loss of life in the event
of fire. The fact that the hotel was
scarcely damaged at all shows the util-
ity of the wall. The interior of
the theater was very rich and beautiful
in finish. Artists were brought here
from New York to do the decorating.
The ceiling was greatly admired The
stage was very complete in it's appoint
ments and was separated from the audi
forum by a heavy proscenium wall and
a fre-proof curtain. The roof which
fell in had span of 80 feet. It was
built on heavy trusses, which were
doubtless so weakened by the fire
that they were carried down by their
OWN weight.

HnnSa

CHICAGO, ILL.,, April ga panic oc-
cured in the Humboldt public school
this afternoon, and in the mad rush of
the children to escape from the build
ing one boy was killed and over score
were crushed and trampled. Fourteen
children lie in the St. Elizabeth Hos
pital under the care of physicians
while many others were carried to
their homes by the police.
The children were preparing to leave
for recess when loud explosion
startled every teacher and pupil In the
school. A steam pipe had burst IN one
of the rooms, and moment later the
children were rushing pell-mell through
the halls and down stairs, shrleklng
with fear. The stairways became
choked with the terror-stricken chill
dren, and as they continued to pour out
of the rooms to swell the surging mass
in the Railways those in advance We're

CHAPTER XIX.

AS the Earl. with Godfrey Armistead,
Frank Meredith, and the detective
rode into Moretown, they soon dis
covered that some great excitement
prevailed, and after little question
ing learned that a woman had been
shot in the railway station early that
morning and that the man had es-
capped.
Mr. Newton went at once to the
small police station, and, to the aston
ishment of his employers, asked full
particulars about the case, and finished
by demanding to see the wounded wo-
man at once.
Roy felt inclined to be annoyed.
What had this affair to do with the
search he had on hand?
The detective soon explained. He
saw Myra, who was unable to speak,
but had sufficient strength to nod her
head to his questions, and by this
means he discovered that the man who
had sent her to her death was the man
they sought.
The Earl was frantic The thought
of Alice in the grasp of this unscrupu-
lous villain maddened him, while the
detective sought the traces necessary
to following him, was almost more
Indu he cOulu Ucdf.
The guard of the train had returned
from London, and gave his evidence:
and now all was known, except the ex-
act destination of Count Jura and his
victim.
Once again the detective used his
brains. A special train was ordered.
The three gentlemen with the guard
Travelled to the very spot where Jura
had alighted that morning, and, when
there, they went to the handful of
cottages to make inquiries.
No one could tell them anything: but
eliciting the name of the nearest town,
they borrowed the only vehicle to
be found-a large market-cart-and
started along the same route that poor
Alice had been carried, the Earl's
heart growing more wretched every
minute.
They could only travel slowly, and
the night was falling as they reached
the town. AS luck would have it they
met the same policeman who had d.
rected Jura. and at once from him
learned the name of the hotel to which
they had gone.
The Earl, white and breathless,
rushed into the hail.
"Where is the lady who was brought
here this morning by dark gentle
MANI" he demanded, eagerly.
The landlord shook his head and
called his wife.
The men looked at one another.
ga slender, fair-haired, pretty girl"
cried Frank Meredith, quickly
Eyes sir-thats her. couldn't be-
lieve as how she were mad like. But
her husband said she was"
'sHer husband gasped Roy, sinking
into chair.
The detective put hand on the
Earl's shoulder.
Pardon me, my lord" he said,
quietly; ''leave it in my hands. Now,
my good woman, answer my questions.
Where is this young LADY,"
II don't know, sir, the landlady re-
piled, looking little frightened; ''she
was took away by the gentleman about
half an hour ago: he said they was
a-going to Dorchester by the express.

not inclined that way. Her temper

that ugliness ten-fold; the freeing Of

the most desperate efforts to climb the
