An Unappreciated Story.

A story told by an English paper, and
claiming the merit of absolute truth,
evidences once more the inexorable
purity and womanliness Of Queen Vic
toria's character. At Windsor a party
of young princes and princesses were
chattering with members Of the royal
household on various matters The
Queen was present, but was not motto
ing them especially, when a heartier
laugh than the rest aroused her interest,
and she asked to be told the fun. Now
the laugh had arisen from an anecdote,
which was not really risky, but just a
little bit So There was a demur at re-
peating it to the Queen. Everybody
felt slightly uncomfortable. The Queen
said again that she and Princess Beat
rice would like to hear the story. It
was told. The Queen listened, and then
said with her inimitable dignity and
simplicity: 1--WE are not amused"
1t is not the example set by it's royal
head that has given to the English
smart set it's uneviable reputation ID
the matter of morals big and little.

INTER TRADES UNIONS.
Talk of English and American
Labor Forces Joining
Hands.

Cardiff Sept. 5.-At the session of the
Trades congress today the parliamentary
committee was instructed to urge upon
Parliament the passage of a bill declaring
fer the principle of payment of salaries
to members of the House of Commons.
Mr.. Sexton, delegate from Liverpool
in seconding motion for the adoption of
a resolution in favor of prohibition of
landing of pauper aliens, said that he
wished to include within the scope of
the resolution royal paupers, who ar
rived without visible means of subsist-
eence, but who soon found them. These,
Mr.. Sexton said, were the men who con-
tr0lled the empire, while the poor British
taxpayers had no rights at all.
Messrs. Samuel Gompers and 2. J.
Mcguire, who represent the United States
IN the Congress, were given a hearty re-
-ceptiOn at this afternoons session. Presi-
dent jenkins, in welcoming the American
delegates, said that although geogra phical-
" divided. the workers Of America, Great
Britain and Ireland were united on all
the important questions pertaining to the
elevation of their class.
Mr. Gompers said further that Amer
lea had many difficulties to contend with,
but that it would be cowardice on the
part Of wage workers to defer the strug-
gle, for the longer the contest was post
poned the fercer and more intense would
it become. By the coming congress,
Mr.. Gompers said, he hoped to see the
bond of labor's inter-solidarity strength
ened. with labor united. swords shall
be beaten into Dlowshares and spears
into pruning hooks" and nation shall
not lift up sword against nation, nor
shall they learn war any more"
Mr.. Gompers added that he hoped to
be instrumental in bringing up closer re-
lations between the British and Ameri-
can organizations.
Mr. Mcguire, in responding to the adj
dress of welcome, said that he had
crossed the ocean in the name of Ameri-
can labor to convey to those present
an expression of feryent good Wishes
fro1n their fellow-strugglers in America.
He regarded Great Britain as the alma
mater of trades unionism.
The congress voted its thanks to the
American delegates for their addresses.
The Americans were also presented wixl
medals commemorative of their visit.
The congress then sang 'For They Are
Jolly Good Fellows" with great enthusi-

CAN EJECT SETTLERS.
Important Ruling in the Famous
Portage Lake Canal Case at

Marquette, Mich, Sept, 6.ISpecial. i

Marquette, Mich, Sept 6.-[Special. /
Arguments in the case of the Keewenaw
association Qimited) VS.. George Cole and
John Connors were concluded in the fed
aeral court her at noon and promptly on
reassembling this afternoon Judge Swan
rendered his decision in favor of the
plaintiffs.
This is one of the cases brought by the
plaintiff TO eject settlers from land lr-
chased by them from the Portage Lake
Canal company, who had selected them
pursuant to grant from Congress to aid
in the construction of the canal Defend
ants set ND a claim that the lands were
designated in the proclamation of Presi-
dent Fillmore as mineral lands and there
fore were not subject to selections under
the grant of Congress and a certified copy
of the proclamation was submitted in evil
~dence.
The title to about 10000 acres, some of
which is the choicest mineral lands Of
Michigan, was involved. Judge Swan
ruled that the lands were not properly
designated as mineral lands and were
therefore open to selection by the Canal
company under terms of their grant.

The Monogram U. 8.

The Monogram y. Sc
There is q little monogram
We see Where'er we go;
1t offers us protection
Against a foreign foe.
1t stands for light and progress
In every foreign cline,
And its glory and it's greatness
Are the themes Of many rhyme.
But few have ever really known,
And few would ever guess
What our country means by marking
All her chattels with u. S.;
1t may stand for United States,
Or yet for Uncle Sam;
But there's still another meaning
To this simple monogram.
We see it on our bonds and bills,
And on our postal cards;
1t decOrates our Capitol,
Swallowed by Stripes and Stars.
In all our barracks, posts and forts
1t plays leading part,
And the jolly sailor loves it
And enshrines it in his heart.
Now, have you guessed the message
Which these mystic letters bear!
Or recognized the untold good
They're spreading everywhere!
Echo the joyful tidings,
And let the people know
That the L. S. of our nation means
We-Use Sapolio.

DEATH IN THE CAMP.
Private Hines of Calumet Crushed
by Tree During a Wind
storm.

Tshpeming, Mich, Sept. 6.-[Special1-
"A heavy electrical wind and rain storm
occurred here last night between and
10 o'clock. The effects of the storm were
mot felt to any extent about the city, but
the soldiers a Camp Ishpeming had a
very disagreeable experience. Twenty
sor more large trees were blown down on
the tents. Soldiers were compelled to
leave their quarters and run for their
lives TO a clearing south of the camp.
Private Joseph HeimeS of Co. ID, Calu,
met, occupied tent on the extreme north
side of the grounds. The trees began fall
ing about him, so he and his bunkmate,
Richard Cr0Ze, started down the hill to
escape. Heimes was struck on the head
by one of the falling trees and instantly
killed. CroZe was some distance from
his unfortunate companion and escaped
with slight injury.
When the storm abated the soldiers
about the camp procured lanterns and
began looking around to ascertain if
everything was all right. At about II
O'Clock they found young Heimes' body
under the tree. The deceased was 10
Calumet. Prior to two years ago he
lived at Bessemer. The remains left
here for Calumet, accompanied by sew
aeral members of the company, this morn
ing.
The strikers are very determined that
no outside laborers shall be allowed to
take their places. They assemble at
the depot upon the arrival of every train.
No outside men, however, have arrived
since Wednesday morning The major
ity of these have since quit work and
joined the union. The strikers report
that they received $50 from Milwaukee
daboring men yesterday.
The employees and manager of the Star
West mine paid $500 into the union treas
ury yesterday. This was in accordance
with an agreement entered into before
the mine was permitted to resume opera
tons. These funds will assist very ma
terially in furnishing the necessities of
life which are now so badly needed by
some of the strikers and their families.
The few old hands who have been en-
ployed about the mines since the strike
began have received threatening letters.
Some of the men have quit work fearing
the consequences. while others have paid
no attention to the threats.
The pumpmen. engineers and fremen
at all the mines in Negaunee were called
out by the Miners union this morning
The Office clerks. time keepers and mine
bosses are in charge of the machinery
and the water is being kept out of the
workings as usual.

Lament of the ErniGrant.
I'm sitting on the stile, Mary,
Where we sat long ago,
I've walked a many mile, Mary,
To find Sapolio.
l mind me how you told, Mary,
When we were side by side,
Its match could not be bought for gold
In all the world so wide.
Our home was bright and fair, Mary,
You kept IL so for aye,
And yet had time to spare, Mary;
Would you were there to-day.
You made the work but play, Mary;
All women might do SO,
And all should know the charm you say
Lies in Sapolio.
But now I sit and weep, Mary,
Nor fear to break your rest,
For | laid you, darling, down to sleep,
With your baby on your breast.
The graves are not few, Mary,
Hard work brings many low;
1t was not so with you, Mary,
You used Sapolio.

SAYS HIS DOG WASN'T MAD.
A JURY To TELL II THE CANINE
WHICH BIT DADIN WAS RABID.

Franklin Jones Answer TO Dadin's
suit for $4,000 Damages on Ae-
count of His Injuries by Jones'
DOe-Experts 10 Tell what They
Know About Mad Dogs in savan-
nah.
J. H. Kinckle, attorney for Franklin F.
Jones. filed the latters answer to the suit
brought against him by julius V. Dad;n,
in the city court, yesterday.
Dadin was the young man who was bit
ten by a dog belonging TO Jones. and The
impression having gone abroad that the
dog was mad, Dadin was sent to the Pas
teur Institute in New York for treatment.
On his return he filed suit against Jones
for 5000 damages. claiming that Jones
was In the habit OF keeping fierce and vi
cious dogs in connection with his bust
ness as a butcher, and that he had been
bitten by a rabid dog, which was the
property Of the defendant.
The fact that he is a butcher is about
the only allegation made by Dadin which
Jones admits in his answer. He denies
that he keeps any large. fierce or vicious
dogs in connection with his business, and
while ne admits that Dadin might have
been bitten. as is alleged in the latters
petition, he denies that any dog of which
he is or was the owner at the time of the
alleged injury was afflicted with any dis
ease.
The case will no doubt be an interesting
one when il comes up for trial. 1t may in
volve some expert testimony, going to
show whether dogs do or do not become
rabid in this part of the country.
Those who investigated the matter did
not believe that the dog which bit Dadin
was suffering from rabies, but thought
he might have had a fit or that he
might have been suffering from some
stomach trouble Old and experienced dog
fanciers say they have never known Of a
case of rabies in Savannah.

YELLOW FEVER DOCTORS SCARCE
None I'm Savannah That Want $3.50

Health Officer Drummer was requested
some time ago by Surgeon General W.

da coast to head off hlibusterers and TO
prevent the Introduction of yellow fever.
He has notified the surgeon general that
he could not get the physicians here.
Physicians immuned to yellow fever were
scarce in Savannah now, il having been
nearly twenty years since the clty's last
experience with the plague. There are
probably dozen or more physicians here
who have had experience with yellow few
er. but their regular practice would not al
low them to accept of the surgeon gen.
erals offer of $3.50 n month for three
months. DIR. Drummer has received a num-
Der of communications on the subject,

other places, but has referred all the APP
plications to the department at Washing

THE TRAVELLERS INSURANCE CO.,
OF HARTFORD, CONN.
The Largest Dividend Payer I'm the
United States.


The prime object of nearly every one
who seeks the protection of life insurance
is TO secure the largest possible amount
which the premium paid will justify. A
dividend which comes at the end Of the
policy year, in the shape Of a reduction
of the next years premium. does not
answer the necessity Of the case; the
policy-holder wants insurance, and all that
he can get with the premium paid; and II,
at the end of the year. a portion OF the
premium is returned which was not need
ed to maintain the policy, he marvels why
he was required to pay this portion in the
first instance; or why they did not give
him, at the start, all the insurance which
his money would buy, in place of return
ing intact a portion of the last years
premium not needed for insurance.
The premium. for example, on a 81. 100
policy. at age of 30, in a dividend com
pany is S2S3; the same premium paid to
the Travellers Insurance Company would
have secured a policy for s12.767 at the
start. The policy holder may get divi-
dend at the end of the year: but if he
dies during the year, his beneciaries will
receive s2,767 less than they would have
received from the Travellers. The Trav-
elers Insurance Company. in other words.
on this policy and for the same premium,
pays in advance an equivalent for future
dividends, by $276T additional insurance
payable at death.
He who seeks insurance for its own sake
and because he needs il, will buy insur-
ance rather than dividends; and let the
company do the insuring. Moral: Insure
