More than ten years ago
When came toward the norti..ut

Came to Woo a dainty maiden,
With dark eyes and du-ky hair
For in all the land around him
None to linn was quite 80 fan,
And to him, like IliawatAa,
She was moonlight, starlight, too.
This bright eyed, laughing uIajJsa
Frank had braaely come to Woo.
And he followed whore lie led Atr,
Pleasant has their Journey been,
Care and sorrow have passed by them
Tho the years have numbered ten;
Lite Is chocAcrcd shade and sunshine,
Who the future can toreteD:
Love Is sunshine, hate i shadow,
Alway- love each other well.
That the sunshine still viii linger
L. tii- home Of peace and plenty,
And may children grace the hearth-toHe
When the years have numbered twenty.
But the days pass by so swiftly,
IIappiest people will grow old,
We leave With you our fondest wishes
That youcclclrate your wedding of gold"

FRANCE MAKES No REPLY
Eustis' second Demand in the Vel
Ter Case Also Ignored.

Washington special: The officials OF
the state department are %anXiously await
ing information from Ambassador Eustis
as to the manner in which the second de-
mand for the record of the Weller court
martial, which was held in Tamatava, has
been received in France. 1t is 10Y learn
ed definitely that the French government
refused to furnish the record upon the
this refusal was met on the part Of the
state department by 2 mere positive and
pressing demand for all the papers. Tn
department i; informed by Mr.. EustiS that
this demand has been presented TO the
French authorities. There has been quite
sufficient time for a reply, but non has
been received.
The course OF the French i'll their refusal
to supply the record is considered most
unusual, and as no explanation Of the de-
cision was vouc.isafcd, the department is
at a loss to know upon what grounds II
was based.
The suppo>ition is gaining ground that
France refusal 10 furnish the record is
due to a desire not 10 give publicity TO rev.
citations made in the letters to Weller,
which We're Intercepted by the French au-
tboritles. concerning the conduct OF some
Of the French soldiers toward the native
women Of Tamataya.

RIVERS ON THE RAMPAGE.
Water the Highest 1t Has Been in
Years,

Dunbar, Pa, special: The heaviest rain
storms and floods that have visited this
section for many years occurred Tuesday
night Rain fell in torrents for over three
hours. Trains from Pittsburg and the
southwest on the Pennsylvania Railroad
and on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
have not yet passed this point. The
bridges between Dunbar and Uniontown
are all washed away and the tracks are
washed out in many places also.
The local streams are swollen higher
than at anytime since the food of 1888.
People along the banks of the Dunbar
Creek were compelled to flee for their
lives, and buildings were carried away in
the torrent. The bridges crossing the
creek, which run through the town, are
all swept away, separating the town.
The Dunbar Furnace Company and the
Dunbar Fire Brick Company are all flood
I'd. The loss will amount TO many thou
sand dollars. Samuel W~ashabaugh, d
pumper at the Cambria Company's works,
was drowned. The pump house was un-
dernincd and carried away.

Dun 6 Co.'s Review.

New York special: X. K. Dun 81 Co.'S
Weekly Review of Trade will say:
Ii is not the time for the tide OF business
TO rise, but there is perceived scarcely any
shrinkage except that which comes natur-
ally with midsummer heat. The volume
of new business is small compared with
the recent months, but large enough TO en-
courage more openings OF long closed
works, and more advances in the returns
to labor.
Accounts of shrinkase in the yield of
wheat come both from the Pacific states
n the Dakotas. 1t would be "A stran-e
and unnatural July without such reports,
and yet they have weight enough this
year to lead even the most experienced
to reduce somewhat their eStima OF the
yield, while the price advanced 81. cents.
Light western receipts for the week, not a
third Of last years, and for the -four weehs
only 5,3d6, 06S bushels, against IL, 9s3,j ls
last year, strengthen adverse reports, be-
cause the price a year ago is about 20 cents
lower than it is now.
Price Of iron and steel products still
rise, the feature is week being the start
ling advance c, . 'nts per keg in cut and
wire nails, witt .,cw cards Tor various
sizes which, it is stated, make the advance
uneQually greater than it was feared.
Copper has advanced, lake 10 llia cents,
contracts having been made this month
for 20, 000, 001 pounds. and lead is strong.
Textiles have a better outlook, with a
large demand for cotton and wooden goods
and N advance in print cloths and N
most blanket goods and a more hopeful
market for light woolens. Enormous sales
of wool. H,'Ts,S4 pounds IN four weeks,
against 2e. 2220. 250 IN 1872, far exceed actual
consumption, but reflect the belief that the
price will not decline. and the few changes
this week hsye been upward.
Failures for the week were PIP in The
United States, against 2+y last year, and
- IN Canada. against 80 last year.

Of the American schooner Carrie Z. Lane,
upon his arrival here had a tale to tell
about a thrilling encounter in Cuban
waters with a Spanish gunboat. Two shots
were fired at the Lane by the man of war
and one of the schooner's crew narrowly
escaped being killed by one Of them. The
vessel was made to heave to and give an
account Of herself before being allowed to
proceed. The schooner was off Port An

FOR A THIRD TERM.
Washington Paper Thinks He Is
to Run a Fourth Time.

Washington special: Grover Cleveland
is a candidate for third term as president
OF the United states or he is fOoling his
friends. There have been hints of this
kind in the air for a month. What seems
TO be positive proof of the truth of the re-
ports come faster and faster. Yet men
who ought 10 know something of the pol
icy of the party managers pooh pooled the
stories and declared there could be moth
ing in them. The Star says:
The expression of opinion every now

the third term scheme will develop is often
attributed 10 the eccentricity of midsum-

EMMANUEL CHURCH CRIMES
A Demented Man Claims He Is the
Murderer.

Santa Cruz, Cal, SPECIAL: In the county
jail OF Santa Cruz Is confined William f.
Barrett, who says he murdered Blanche
Lamont and Minnie Williams in Einman-
uel Church last April. He gave himself
up to the chief of police and was dis
charged as a harmless %lunatic. Then he
went 10 the sheriff, to whom he confessed
ms guilt as perpcirator of the Emmanuel
Church murders. To the district attorney
he told a story that ar first seemed plaus-
ible, but when Barrett wentinto the details
of the crime the Inconsistency of his state
mentS convinced his auditors of his per-
feet innocence and complete insanity.
Barrett, who was formerly a waiter in a
san Francisco restaurant, says he saw
Durant and the girls on a street car and
disiring TO know Miss Lamont and Miss
Williams, he boarded the car in the
hope OF making their acquaintance.
The trio aliGhted al the Emmanuel
Church, Barrett following. Durant and
Miss Lamont entered the church followed
still by Barrett. while Miss Williams
waited outside. Barrett says he hid be-
hInd a pew. Detecting an Odor of escap-
ing gas Duranl went to the belfry TO stop
the leak. Barrett seized aud attempted to
assault Miss Lamont. To stifie her cries
he choked her and she dropped to the floor.
To silence Miss Williams Barrett says he
stabbed her with a knife from the restaur-
ant. Meanwhile Durant had been over
come by gas and was SO dazed that he did
,A-, go D.. ~ l.
fry. Barrett says he did not wish Durant
10 be hanged for his crime, and that he
was sure that he would eventually be
found out. Barrett resembles Durant in
personal appearance.

WARSHIP FOR PANAMA.
The United states Consul Tcle-
graphs that One Is Needed.

Washington special: 1t is probable that
orders will be sent to a United States war
ship to proceed fortl~ til to Panama for
the purpose OF protecting American inter
estS in that country. The United States
consul at Colon cabled tue state depart
ment that labor troubles had broken out
OH the Panama Railroad there. His cable
gram minated that it would be advisable
to have an American warship at Colon.
Assistant Secretary OF State Adee and
Secretary Herbert Of the navy department
had Il consultation and it was deemed adj
visable to get q vessel there as soon as pos
sible. but Just What vessel should be Sc
lec,ed for this duty was left undecided.
If the navy department sends a warship
to Colon IT does not signify that any at
tempt will he made to interfere with the
strikers, provided they do not go 10 the
length of destroying The railroad property,
which is protected 10y an American charter.

Pierre and talked very e~ncouragingly Of
crop prospects over the state. He has been
travelling all over South Dakota for several
weeks for the purpose of making an esti-
mate on the wheat crop and thinks the
prospects are far ahead OF what they have
been for several years. His estimate Of
the acreage devoted to wheat this year is
placed at 2,400, 600 acres, and is based on
the decrease in the acreage IN the past
years. His estimate on the average yield
is twelve bushels per acre. This will give
