Williams hesitated. He had not been in
formed Of buttons condition in such terms
any hope Of the mans recovery. He had
more than half expected to find Dutton
dead. For an instant he suspected that
Mrs. Warren was trying to deceive him
that matter it was part Of the loyal wife's
purpose to keep the officer there as long
as possible: for 1t was dreadful to think of
her husband going away without word Of
Elsie. This suspicion, however, the chief
dismissed, for he was not only keen OBJ
server. but he reasoned that Mrs. Warren
would not dare to make this statement as
a mere bluff "
IF she was afraid Dutton would incrim-
mate her husband" he thought. "she
would not take the risk
Aloud he said:
'In any event. am bound to bring your
husband before the court now that the war
rant has issued. 1 have no right to wait
for the experiment you suggest"
''Then we'll try it now!'
Mrs. Warren laid her hand on Dutton's 8
shoulder.
Freeman" she said, in a clear tone. "do
you hear me?'
The sick man opened his eyes drowsily.
''Win you ask him?" whispered Mrs.
Warren, eagerly.
Considerably excited for a police officer.
Williams leaned over the foot Of the bed
and said:
Mr.. Dutton. I am an officer Did this
any way cause your injuries?'
A faint smile fitted across buttons face,
he shook his head very slightly and again
closed his eyes.
Williams was seriously disturbed. 1t look
ed as though he were not arresting mur-
derer after all. But there was the warrant,
and there would be the temporary glory of
bringing in his prisoner, even If he had to
let him go again.
Il must execute this warrant" he said,
sharply; come Mr.. Warren"
Neither husband nor wife made any fur
ther attempt to create delay. Each felt
that the sooner now he was taken to court
the sooner would he be released, and but
for Elsie they would have parted cheer
fully.
you must ask Will to stay here tonight" "
said Mr.. Warren when he bade her good
bye.
Williams directed his assistant, Jackson,
to remain until the searching party came
home. and then to. proceed to DENLY with
King.
1T wouldn't surprise me-" the chief whis-
pered. ''if l got back here myself tonight.
There may be a good deal of business for
us in that girl affair."
And so Mr.. Warren was taken to the
county seat to answer to the charge of at
tempting to murder Freeman Dutton.
When the score of villagers who set out
to rescue Elsie had crossed the road and
stood on the top of one of the low hills that

Mr.. Ethelbert Woodford, who was in
Madagascar at the time the proceedings
against ex-Consul Waller were in progress,
presented his version of the case to Act
ing Secretary Uhl of the State Department
Tuesday. Besides contending, as he did,
strenuously that the proceedings of the
French authorities were entirely unwar-
ranted, and that the French court was
without jurisdiction, Mr.. Woodford pre-
sented affidavits secured by himself from
numerous persons in Tananarivo to show
that Waller had not been supplying the
Hovas with arms, as was charged. He
also called the attention of the Secretary
to the mistreatment to which Mrs. Waller
had been subjected by French soldiers on
board ship coming from Mauritius to Mar

bell of Mauritius is largely responsible be-
cause of his failure to secure better ac-

An English teacher in Japanese

: MANUFACTURING PEARLS.

Cultivating Oysters In Chinese Waters for
the Purpose.
The cultivation of the pearl oyster
has for years been carried on with
great success in the Bay Of Ago, in ia
pan, under direction and restriction of
governmental supervision. The process
of nature is, however, too slow for mod
ern requirements. A Frenchman has
been boring holes in the shells Of pearl
oysters and introducing therein small
glass beads and stopping up the holes
with cork In six months he has pure
surface pearls with glass foundation.
The nacre of the pearl mollusk varies
according to it's location, and almost
any color of pearl, as white, black,
pink or gray, can readily be produced
by lodging the nucleus on the appro-
pirate part of the nollusk's body.
The Chinese are wonderfully expert
in the manufacture Of pearls. They in
troduce small balls of earth inside the
pearl mussel by very delicately opening
the shell and placing the nuclei under
the mouth of the animal, and allowing
the shell to close. This initial process
occurs in May or June; the musse1s are
then deposited in canals Or pools, and
in November the molluslzs are opened,
the pearls removed, holes bored therein,
the neclei extracted, the hollow pearl
filled with melted resin and the orifice
skillfully filed with mother-of-pearl.
These Chinese pearls are fiat on the
bottom. and are nearly henaispherlcai IN
shape. ...
Pearls can be made of almost any
shade or color by chemical means. The
black pearl, for instance, is indelibly
colored in a bath of nitrate of silver.
Pearls. being partly of animal sub
stance are subject to deterioration and
decay, and none of the famous pearls OF
to-day can be traced back many genera
tiOns.

ENGLIshMEN 20 NOT READ.

The ew Deeply Learned, the Many Asosd
Books Entirely.
The great bulk OF the English read
nothing, literally nothing, and he who
knows something Of rural England will
agree to this, says the Forum.
The entrance examination for any
college at Oxford, Cambridge, Edin-
burgh or Dublin is trifling as COM
pared with the entrance examina-
ton for Harvard university; but, on the
other hand, both the classical and
mathenlati teal men who take the high
est rank here go through an amoant OF
England has nothing like the number
of average well-read men that one finds
in America, but America has nothing
like the number of thoroughly well
read. widely travelled, highly trained
men in politics and in all the .profes-
sions that one finds here.
In America there is a widespread ed
ucation of the hare; in England there is,
confined to narrow limits, the educa-
ton of the tortoise, and there is a fable
that the world is poised upon the back
of a tortoise!
Who forgets how small were the
libraries and the opportunities Of Wash
ington, Lincoln and Gront?
The English people are s]ow-in the
main. dull, and they care little for alb
stractions in print; but if Mr.. Benjamin
Kidd's view of social evolution be cor
rect, and the consensus of the co1npe-
tent apparently favors it, then the
prosperity of nation is not dependent
primarily upon it's intellectual alert
ness. and John Bull has little to fear
from his lack of book learning and his
love of the open air.

RueHER AND GuTTA PERchA..

Though Of Recent Introduction Are Used'
Tor ANY Number of Purposes.
At present it seems as if we couldn't
possibly get on without india rubber
and gutta percha. Though both are OF;
comparatively recent introduction, the,
number Of purposes to which they are
applied is SO immense that the world
without them would at least be very
different in some respects. Without.
those two substances submarine cables,
would be almost impossible, telegraphy
would assume many unlike modifica-.
tions, goloshes would not exist, water
proofs and mackintoshes would be a
beautiful dream, and a rubberless
world hideous reality. Elastic, in the
sense in which woman uses the word,
would never have been evolved, to-
bacco pouches would still be of silk or
leather, combs would be Of horn, and
buttons, paper knives, penholders and
pipes much dearer than at present. AS
for machinery, where would it be with
out india rubber cinctures and. tubes
and cups and valves and buffers?
Where would engineering be without
the endless minute applications Of the
elastic gum? Where would surgery be
without the innumerable devices, the
syringes and squirts, the belts and
bandages of which india rubber forms
the sole and, as it seems to us now, in
dispensable basis? Fancy putting out
fires without the invaluable hose;
fancy whirring manufactures without
the inevitable gearing. The bicyclist
would miss his pneumatic tires; the art
list would miss his ever handy eraser.

NOBODY KNOWS BUT MOTHER.

Nobody knows the work it makes,
To keep the home together;
Nobody knows of the steps it takes
Nobody knows but mother.
Nobody listens to childish woes
Which kisses only smother;
Nobody's panied by the naughty blows,
Nobody-only mother.
Nobody knows of the sleepless care
Bestowed on baby brother;
Nobody knows of the tender prayer,
Nobody-only mother.
Nobody knows of the lessons taught
OF loving che another:
Nobody knows of the patience long
Nobody knows but mother.
Nobody knows of the anxious fears
Lest darlings may not weather
The storms of life in after years,
Nobody knows-but mother.
Nobody kneels at the throne above
To thank the Heavenly Father
For that sweetest gift. mothers love:
Nobody can-but mother.

Remarkable RUNNING.

An Account Of the Fast Travelling Done
by an Indian.
A. W. Anthony, a mining engineer
and naturalist, now living in San Diego,
tells of an instance OF fast travelling SO
extraordinary as to put all six-day go
as-you-please records in the deep shade,
says the Los Angeles Times.
We were in San Fernando. Mexico,
several hundred miles below San Diego,
says MIR. Anthony. A band OF renegade
Indians held up the camp, stealing all
portable property. 1t was desirable to
get message to the nearest governor
two hundred and sixty miles away for
assistance to- chase the outlaws. One
runner, Jose, mission Indian, six feet
two inches tall, weighing about one
hundred and eighty pounds, all muscle
and bone, was given the dispatch and
urged to make haste over the rugged
and sometimes mountainous road to-
the governor. Flo made haste. Ac-
cQrding to the official records now in
the Mexican archives, our message ask
ing for help was delivered in just
twenty-four hours after Jose left us.
Such a record of two hundred and sixty
miles afoot in twenty-four hours is, I
believe, unprecedented. This, courier
or runner travelled ninety-f1ve- to- one
hundred and twenty-five miles daily on
foot as a regular business,s carrying
mail. He could easily carry two sacks
of orc, weighing one hundred and fifty
pounds each, to the ore dumps. When
running he was clad simply in oueralls
and shirt. His feet were protected
either by sandals or thick-soled: mocca~
sins. He carried leather water bot
tie, and depended upon ranches along,
the trail for food.
