KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Aug. 1.-THE long
fight between the insurance companies who
carried policies on the life of DR.. w. G.
Fraker and the benefciaries of the Fraker
policies was terminated at o'clock this
afternoon, when the last of Fraker's in
surance was paid. The amounts were
$32,474 "a. The history of the Frakers is
too well known to require repetition. 1t is
as much mystery now as it was two years
ago, and though the officers of the insur-
ance companies and very many other
people do not believe Fraker is dead, the
United States courts have decided that he
is, and as they cannot find him alive the
companies can but obey the order of the
court.

FIENDIsH WORK OF WREcKERs
The Steamer Meeico Set on Fire and Cattle
Ronsfed.

ST. JOHNS, n. F., Aug. 12.-Lloyd's
surveyor at this port, who went by way of
mail steamer to Belle Isle to survey the
steamer Mexico, recently wrecked there,
reports her practically total loss. She is
submerged from her bridge aft. She has
also several great holes in her bottom. 1t
is expected that she will break up with
the next heavy sea. The ship had been
set on fire by wreckers and hundreds OF
cattle roasted to death. The spectacle of
their charred bodies. which are now rot
ting, is sickening one. The Newfound-
land press is clamoring for an investiga-
tion and the prosecution of the wreckers.

at the time the grain was taken, but it is
thought he has left the State.

Chase.
SAN JOSE, CAL, Aug. 12.-The police
to-day succeeded in capturing Mecchi Mar
tineili, young Mexican who has been
wanted since May % for robbing General
Gordon's residence on Julian street. After
the robbery the young man went to San
Francisco, but returned here about a week
ago, since which time he has succeeded in
eluding the police. Officers Bache and
Dunning went to his home to-day, and
after a chase of about 100 yards Bache sue
ceeded in capturing him.
Martinelli has frequently been before the
police courts. AS the evidence is not very
strong he will probably be allowed to plead
guilty to charge of petty larceny.

From the Mexico Ledger: Mrs. L. A.
Shootman died last February. She had
made a will in June, giving the bulk of
her property, the real estate, to her
daughters, Mrs. Geo. j. Tyrrell,, OF st.
Louis, and Mrs. c. c. Sherwood, OF COL
umbia, giving to her daughter, Mrs. j. NJ.
Riley, $500 and her son, Lucien, a house
and lot and $500, and disinheriting her
daughter, Mrs. Mollie Showers, Of St.
Louis, giving as a reason that there had
been advanced to her $4,000. Mrs. Riley
and Mrs. Showers, soon after the will Was
probated, began a suit to contest the will
upon the ground of u~nsoundness OF mind
and undue influence. The plaintiffs claim
that these two daughters had always
been on the best Of terms with Their
mother and could account for the alleged
Advancement Of 5000 to Mrs. Showers
upon no other ground than that she WIS
unsound in mind and unduly influenced.
There were a great many witnesses eX-
amined on the points at issue. Many of
them, as well as several doctors, gave it
rs their opinion that at the time she
made the will Mrs, Shootman was incapa-

This Greek word means the "ten words,'
and In the Old Testament is always termed
the covenant or testimony and not the law.
God enters into a covenant with his people,
and does not issue arbitrary commands.
This covenant was entered into under cir
cumstances OF the greatest solemnity and
awe, and ''thunders and lightnings, and q
thick cloud upon the mount and the voice OF
trump exceeding loud; 30 that the people
In the camp trembled."
Tho people did not dare draw near the
smoking and quaking mount, and only Moses
and Aaron were permitted to go up into the
mount.
God's part OF the covenant is contained in
verse Q; 81 am the Lord thy God, which
brought thee up out of the land of Egypt,
out OF the house Of bondage" The implied
stipulation is, that as Jehovah, the ever
lasting, self-existent one, who created
them and had chosen and preserved them to
the present time, he would continue to
guide. protect and bless them In all time
to come on the conditions following;
1. ''Thou shalt have no other Gods before
me-" Polytheism was universally prevalent
in Egypt, and 1t was the sin, above all
others, that the Jews needed TO be guarded
against, and one from which they never
were fully delivered TIL after the Babylonish

From "Review OF Fashions - In Democrats

Brilliantine, or alpaca, is one of
the favorite fabrics Of the summer
for simple tailor gowns, and it can
be had in fine checks as well as
in plain colors. An attractively
youthful gown for a young girl is OF
tan and brown checked brilliantine,
made with a simple plain skirt, and a
short cut away coat worn over a
batiste blouse. A blue serge with an
Elton jacket has revers and cuffs OF
embroidered batiste finished on the
edge with a frill of yellow lace.
These can be easily removed for
laundering, but would last a season

THE LOST KISS.

put by the half written poem,
while the pen, idly trailed in my hand,
Writes on-"Had / words to complete 1t,
who'd read 1t, or who'd underestimate
But the little bare feet on the stairway,
And the faint, smothered laugh in the hall
And the eerie-low lisp on the silence,
Cry up to me over IL all.
So I gather 1t up-where was broken
The tear-faded thread OF my theme,
Telling how. as one night I sat writing,
A fairy broke In on my dream;
A little inquisitive fairy
My own little girl, with the gold
or the sun In her hair, and the dewy
Blue eyes of the fairies Of old.
Twas the dear little girl that I scolded-
"For was II o moment like this,'
I said, when she knew I was busy,
To come romping in for a kiss'-
Come rowdying up from her mother,
And clamoring there at my knee
For 'One little kiss for my dolly,
And one little uzzer for mel"
God pity the heart that repealed her,
And the cold hand that turned her away!
And take, from the lips that denied her,
This answerless prayer of to-day
Take, Lord, from my mem'ry forever
That pitiful sob of despair,
And the patter and trip OF the little bare feet
And the one piercing cry on the stair!
I put by the half-written poem,
While the pen, idly trailed in my hand,
Writes on-"Had | words to complete 1t,

But the little bare feet on the stairway,
And the faint, smothered laugh in the hall
And the eerie-low lisp on the silence.

THE TEN COMMANDMENTS.

EXODUS Ix;l-l7.
1t is with some reluctance that I turn from
the study of the forty days and from follow
ing the apostles In their early experiences
after the ascension, and go back to the Old
Testament history. And yet for a proper
understanding OF the dealings OF God with
man, and the provisions made after the fall
for mans redemption this preliminary study
is Indispensable. Besides when we get
fairly started again in the wonderful history
Of this peculiar people Of God, we shall
likely become very much interested in their
study. No race of men has ever figured
more prominently and done more to deter
mine the course of history than the Jewish
race.
The section of history we study this quar-
ter extends from the giving Of the law at
Sinai TO the time OF the Judges. The journey
from the Red sea to Sinai was about one
hundred and nifty miles, and occupied about
ffty days. The principal events that trans
PRED during this Journey were: l.. The
encampment by the wells and palm trees OF
Elm. 2. Giving of the mama, first in the
wilderness Of sin. 8. The gift OF water
from the rock at Merida. 4. The battle with
the Amalekites. s. The organization OF the
nation by rulers under different grades
under Moses. Now the time has come for
the giving of the law.

WILL VIRTUE BE REWARDED?
A West Point Cadet Who Compelled Hi,
Colonel to Obey the Regulations.

A West Point Cadet who Compelled His
Colonel to Obey the Regulations.
The establishment of the color line
in the West Point summer encampment
recently gave rise to good story on
the commandart of cadets, Colonel
Samuel Mills. The regulations pre-
scribe that everyone crossing the color
line or passing the colors should salute
by lifting his cap with the right hand
and placing it upon his left shoulder.
Colonel Mills neglected this important
ceremony not long ago and the sentry
on duty promptly stopped him and
compelled him to obey the regulation.
The commandant next day sent for
this cadet, a third class man, who, by
the way, comes from Indiana, and
talked to him long and earnestly. The
young man refused to divulge the sub
stance of the interview, but the general
opinion is that the cadet will be given
corporals chevrons in the fall, when
changes are made in the officers of the
battalion.
