How Litner Won . Beautiful japanese
Bride by Bravery.
Charles Litner Is one of the luckiest sail
ors that ever sailed out of this port on Q
sealing schooner. He is going to be mar
ried to one of the prettiest girls In Japan.
Not only is she very pretty, but her par
ents are very wealthy, according to the
story told by G. Burdell Burtlell came up
on the steamer Coptio last week. Speak.
ing Of young Litner he said:
Charley is tho son of Sebastian Litner,
laborer, who lives out on Nineteenth av-
enue. He is an athletic young fellow and
has always had an ambition to see the
world. That's why he shipped on the
schooner Jane Grey and went rowing over
the seas in search of seals and adventures.
"While at Hakodate, Japan, few
months ago, Litner happened to be on one
of the chief thoroughfares one afternoon
when a spirited Japanese pony ran away
with a japanese girl, Miss Siena KatO.
Litner saved the girls life by springing in
front Of the runaway and striking the po
ny stunning blow on the head with q
club.
1.-The act was regarded as one of rare
bravery, and before we left Japan it was
announced that Litner was engaged to
marry Miss Kato. He was hurt in the ac-
cident and was first taken to a hospital,
but was afterward removed to the young
lady's residence at the request of her par.
ents. The marriage ceremony was to have
taken place two weeks after we sailed.
They are probably married by this time "

The Messrs. Appleton did we'll whom they
choss Mr.. Howells TO write tho introduc-
tion to Count Leo Tolstoi's new book,
"Mastor and Man" The famous Russian
has no greater admircr, not even In his
own country, than Mr.. Howclls.
"It is," says Mr.. Howells, "like tho
clasp of great warm hand with tho boat
of friendly heart In II, the heart of man
who neither looks down upon his fellow
man nor up to him, but meets him on the
common level of their humanity and be-
gins at once to live with him In tho real
things of his soul"
You and In reading this story might
take IL merely rs story OF q certain phase
of Russian life, the hard unpicturcsque
phase, showing the peculiar relations be-
tween master and man.
Mr.. Howells, on tho other hand, finds IL
not only masterpiece as a story, but tho
drama Of the race playing itself In mo-
ment, In q corner, as 1t has played itself
through all history on the stage OF the
world The man who has helplessly, max
ing his prey OF the man who has not, serv'
ing himself of him, using his life as IL 1t

the cold, and exploiting his helpless per-
sonality as II 1t were so much inanimate

ing ito the man who has, with dumb,
dreamy sense Of the injustice, such as per
haps the perishable brutes feel,
That nourish blind life within the brain.
but thinking of no way to right himself
submitting, suffering to the end, and ac-
cepting fate with sarcastic patience and
an articulate intelligence-this Is the story,
and 1t would not be more than this, or per-
haps worth telling, II 1t were not for the
drama which goes on tacitly In the heart
of the man who has, while the other play
proceeds explicitly between him and the
man who has not. The art of the work Is
shown in the fact that nothing Is forced In
the action without or within, but all hap
pens naturally and because it must"
The lesson of this fable" as Mr.. How
ellis finds 1t, is ''human brotherhood, the
thing which when once we know 1t, how
ever little, seems the divinest thing within
the reach of our human experience but
which only some rare chance can accord as
long as the relation Of 'hireling and him
that hires is the order of the world."-

that during tho last week they have been

In the village for articles ranging from

At tho recent fair Of the Mercury Wheel

inquiry was set on foot by tho club.
j. w. Crawford, village trustee and dea-

to be the holder of the winning ticket.
The club offered him the bicycle, but no
refused 1t, saying he could not conscien-

C0MMeNDABLE WORK.

The action Of the City Council last
evening relative to the Interstate road
is in every way commendable. While
granting the railroad people what they
desired, the rights and interests of the
city are fully protected. That the bus
iness men of the city were alive to the
neccessty of prompt action was seen by
the petition of 100 or more of the lead
ing merchants, urging that the right
for the resumption of traffic be granted
at once. The railroad committee has
acted quite commercially. Now lie,
