We'll, II-guess you may" replied
Mary, continuing to blush.
That settled it. Miss Frank took off her

kerchiefs. She went upstairs and told her
employers she would have to leave, for she

Children's Goats haven't
been what they should be
in make and fit and fashion.
This season we made up our
minds to take matters in our
own hands-and raise a
standard that would be more
nearly perfect.
Our orders were given very
plainly. The penalty was the
same we ask you to impose
on us when satisfaction, full
and complete, doesn't at
tend a purchase here.
We told the makers back
would go the goods.
They caught our enthu-
siasm-worked Conscientious
ly and consistently.
Now there isn't a lady's
coat that is better made
better ftting-or more at
tractive in lyle than is our
entire stock of Children's
Wraps.
We have an immense va
riety to show. The extra
care didn't cost us an extra
cent-will not you. You will
have the choice of the best
garments that have ever been
turned out-at the same
prices-if, indeed. not a little
less than the old-time half
done work.

the "black counties of the state and goes
democratic only when the republicans are
divided, and the democrats use large sums
of money and not always then. This year
the republicans are united, while the dem
ocrats are divided and Somerset will prob
ably go republican by 4 good majority.

Worcester county is normally democratic

Queen Anne county is safely democratic

however it has been distracted by a fac

Gold and Diamond Thieves in Africa.

Prom the ST. Jsmes's Gazette
The gold and diamonds Of South Africa
have already attracted very fair pro-
portion Of the thieves OF the world to
that favored region. Some very fine
hauls have been made and others all
but made; but one hears little Of such
things over here. there Is 50 much OF
soldily interesting South African news
that the cables seldom give US the pictur-
esque Decidedly the most sensational at
tempt was one a few years ago on the
damBnd train. To reach Cape Town
from Kimberley used 20 take three days
or al least two days and three nights.
The diamonds used 20 be carried IN
safe in the pOstOffice sorting van. Some
expert thieves found out where the safe
always stood In the van. and under that
spot, beneath the bottom Of the van,
rugged up a platform Of rope and plank
whereon a man could lie and work with
"a drII az the train sped on It's way. III IS

moving train long enough 10 bore a cir
clet Of holes IN the bottom OF the iron
safe, having first cut a piece out Of the
bottom Of the van. His plan was to com
plete the circle in this tedious way 50 as
70 remove a pieces OF the safe-bottom. and
leave a hole large enough for the inser-
ton OF an arm, the removal OF a bag and
the capture Of a fortune in diamonds
Unfortunately for him, he was either
disturbed. or he got tired, or he dropped
OF the planks. At any rate he did not
cut out the piece Of metal, consequently
did not reap his glittering reward He
escaped. The postoffice people In the van
heard nothing OF the drill-which prob
ably was silent save when there was the
clatter-racket OF the wheels 10 drown its
noise. When the platform and the
pierced safe were discovered the thief
handfwork, which never proved Euffi-
Client for tracing him.
