WANT TO GO TO AFRICA.
Eager to Help Hrs. French-SheldOn
Civilize the Dark Continent.

Mrs. French-S Sheldon, the intre-
pid African traveller, says the New
York World, will start for Europe
on the Etruria. She is going to
London to look after some interests
she has in a publishing house
there. She will return in a few
weeks, having been engaged to de-
liver an address at the Chautauqua
Assembly. From there she will go
West, and then perfect her plans
to establish industrial colonies in
Eastern Africa.
She spoke enthusiastically of her
scheme. She is satisfied that in
the luxuriant country where she
proposes to establish communities
the results will be most satisfac-
tory. While the scheme has only
been causually spoken OF, she has
received over 1000 applications
from men anxious to go out and
start the work of civilization on the
Dark Continent. They are men in
all trades and professions, the ma
jority residing in California, Ne
yada and Utah-men who have
been pioneers in one part of the
world and are willing to be in
another.
One amusing incident was told
by Mrs. French-Sheldon. She mas
received more than twenty letters
suggesting that when it comes to
a matter of establishing a Govern
ment with a code of laws, the
single-tax plan be adopted. But
/ have no concern with matters of
that kind" she added. "My pur-
pose is only industrial and moral. .

To Cross the Atlantic in a skif:

Captain Freitsch, an adventure
some Finn, who has been until re-
Gently living in Milwaukee, thinks
that there is a pile of money wait
ing for the navigator who first
crosses the Atlantic in a skiff. Cap
tain Freitsch has earned his title
ONLY since he became the COM
mander of the 46-foot tiat-bottoned
schooner-rigged skiff Nina. He is
only 30 years old, and has spent
half of his life in deep salt water
and on the inland fresh water
American seas. Captain Freitsch
is not loath to tell that he built the
Nina all by himself. He expects
the adventure-loving world to pay
tribute to his daring spirit. He
arrived in his little craft last even
ing and moored her to barge at
the foot of West Ninety-seventh
street, North River.
He started from Milwaukee on
April 22d. After crossing lakes
Michigan, Huron and Erie, he
towed through the Erie canal
to Troy. He had only 53 cents
when he left Milwaukee, but con-
tributions poured in at all places
on the route where he stopped
overnight.and he had accumulated
enough when he got to the mouth
of the Erie canal to buy mule OF
pure Arabian blood, but it had
strength enough to haul the Nina
and her commander through the
canal. He also hired a tramp to
navigate the mule. The tramp was
content to work his passage for his
food and lodging. The lodging
was on the bank of the canal, and
consequently did not inconvenience
the skipper.
When the Nina got to Troy Cap
tain Freitsch sold the mule and
dispensed with the services of the
tramp. The little craft arrived at
Albany on July 2. Her skipper
had never been down the Hudson,
and, having no chart, he was un-
familiar with the channel and
shoals. He ran aground about
fifty times, but as the Nina draws
only two feet aft and nothing for
ward, he didn't have much trouble
getting off. The captain will bring
his boat down to the Battery today
and permit the public to come
aboard and drop money into his
contribution box to pay for his bar
ometers and other things, mostly
'ometers, that he will need on the
voyage across the Atlantic. He II
going first to southampton, unless
battling winds drive him to some
nearer port, and he will proceed
thence to London, then to ports IL
Sweden and Norway, and theI
return to the United States.
OF course, a boat built like tn
captains two masted battea1
wouldn't make much progress
against strong wind if she didn'
have a centerboard. She has on
which drops about six feet, am
the skipper declares that it is a
good as any keel that has eve
been constructed on the other sid
of the water. He will be his ow,
cook, mate, boatswain bold, an
crew, like the sailorman who com
manded the celebrated Nancy brig
N. Y. Tribune.

A Drummer ON tho Road Gets Rather

One Of the tales which is just now

rated of man who last fall started
South. He stopped at city after city
without making sale until at last he
became so discouraged that, instead
of entering his customers sto es with
his usual self-confident air. he walked
listlessly, as though never expecting
to sell another bill in his life.
Leaving New Orleans he proceeded
to Memphis and sod nothing; to St
Louis and met with the sa ne result
Kansas City and ~ Joseph ',naha
and Sioux City told the same tale

"ANN,E LAURIE" >S PLAYED

Incident Of tho iay "M wnch Mayor
Harrison Was Hurried.
The following is one "f the most
striking incidents of the day on which
all that was mortal OF the late mayor
OF Chicago was laid at rest:
One of the bands that had m1rched
in the funeral procession hen pass
ing the Auditorium building south on
Michigan avenue on its homeward
march in the evening struck up the
tune of annie Laurie" The music
was cheerful and stirring. A large
crowd naturally gathered in front OF
the hotel to view the regiment OF SOL
diers that followed in its wake. Those
who at first failed to recognize the fa'
millar air ana many of those who did
wondered at the lively strains from a
band which had but few hours pre-
viously been playing solemn funeral
dirges in the procession from which
they were returning.
Gradually the meaning of it all
dawned upon the minds OF the people
and the words, "For my bonnie Annie
Laurie would lay ME down and dee,
doubtless were silently spoken bv
those who recalled the last word that
fell from the dying lips of Carter H..
Harrison-"Aunie."

BILE after ten years, the bonds to bear
interest at five per cent per annum.
Allotments of these bonds will be
made to the highest bidders there
for. but no proposals will be con-
sidered at lower price than $l17,-
223, which is the equivalent of a
three per cent bond at par. The
bonds will be in denominations OF
$50 and upwards. The bonds will
be issued to replenish the gold re-
serve which it is expected will be
reduced to $6O,OOO,OO by February 1.
An offer has been received from one

In "A dispatch to the Kansas City

find the following: 1T seems to be

that F. b. Dawes of Clay Center will

by reclamation and that Alexander
Warner of Baxter Springs will be
the nominee for lieutenant Cover
nor. Dawes. who is making an en-
ergetic canvass. finds no opposition
for the place he covets. A while
back there was talk of re-nominat-
ing T. N. Carver, who was the party's
candidate in 1892. but he positively
declines to make the race. Dawes
is a young man, an interesting
speaker and great campaigner.
He took the stump at his own ex-
pense early in the fight last fall and
rendered material service in reviv-
ing the courage of the republicans.
Warner will have some opposition
in the convention, but it is said that
the interests of other candidates for
places on the ticket give him a
clear lead. and that he will win on
the first ballot"

There is n simple treatmeNtof boiled
meat which keeps it pnlatablc. If YOU
wish to cut tho meat when hot after
dinner plunge it again in boiling
water or in tho water in which il was
cooked brought again TO boiling
point and there let it remain until
cold. You will find that it will thus
absorb enough moisture To keep it
tender and juicy. Do not place it in

secured his neighbors' signatures to it.
He recited in the document his num-

and stated, among other things, TINT

carried tho papers to old Judge Smith
and asked him to sign it.
The Judge put on his specs and
carefully read the paper over. Then
he coughed and said:

Zones glowed with satisfaction, for
the Judges signature was power in

"'Well, replied the Judge, Il just

The grave Justices laughed and the
case went on.-Louisville Courier
