This Coin Guarantees Its Owner Several
Privileges, and He Is Glad to Have IL.
Several days ago A. N. Meyer, receiving
teller of the Wyandotte National bank of
Kansas City, Kan, found among his days
receipts quarter Of dollar bearing the
name Of M. w. La Rue, Louisville, KY"
together with some hieroglyphics, the In
dividual mark of Royal Arch Mason.
He thought that the coin was undoubted-
ly highly priced pocket piece, and he d.
rected postal card to NJ. w. La Rue,
Louisville, in hope Of finding the owner.
He had almost forgotten the matter
when he received a letter from Mr.. La Rue,
who had removed from Louisville to Gin
cinnati and afterward to Winton Place,
O., of which village he is now mayor. He
said that he had lost the piece ~ years ago
and expressed himself as very anxious to
get it back, saying that he would gladly
pay for the coin and for Mr.. Meyers
trouble.
Mf. Meyer sent 1t by registered letter to
Mayor La Rue and received letter from
him acknowledging the receipt and inclos-
ing 36 cents, which, he said, was to pay
the expenses, 25 cents for the quarter,
cent for the postal card and 10 cents for
the registry stamp. He added; "The
wanderings Of my little mark may never
be known, but 1 hope all its errands were
those of benehcence.
II grudge nothing of its performances
though, like many other wandering loved
ones it's absence has been source Of
many surmises, regrets, apprehensions and
now and then bitter pang of genuine
grief, as its place could never be filed, ex-
cept upon order Of authorities not easy Of
access or always placable. Its possession
entities me to Masonic burial, to relief from
pressing temporary want, and guarantees
other privileges, immunities, etc. that

hundreds of coins of like weight to pro

LAW STUDENT AT SEVENTY.
Interesting Life OF q Doctor Studying at
the Kansas State University.


There are many quaint people in attend
ance at the Kansas State university at
Lawrence, but probably the most interest
ing of these is law student 20 years old.
His name Is DR.. Martin Van Buren, Ste
vens. This is his second year at the univer-
sity and he expects to graduate this spring
and become full hedged lawyer.
The Doctors life has been one Of inter
esting experiences. Wilkesbarre, Pa, was
the place of his birth. At the age Of 90 he
married Pennsylvania girl and enlisted
In the Fifth New Hampshire regiment,
Company ID. He received the degree Of
bachelor of arts In Oberlin college In Ohio
and doctor of medicine at the Adelbert
college, Cleveland, in 1871. His first wife
having died, he married again, this time
selecting Michigan girl, a niece Of Fight
ing Jim Richardson. At one time he
studied theology and preached, but he soon
gave it up and studied chronology under
Fowler Of New York.
In q cozy little house on the hill this
queer old man lives alone. He keeps every
thing about the place scrupulously clean.
One warm meal day he considers suff-
cient. The other two he carries to school
with him in a small shoebox.
Last year he was somewhat conspicuous
on account Of the number of badges and
emblems he wore on the front of his coat.
These were badges Of the G. A. r., Chris
tian Endcavor, inch chronological
badge, Y. M. G. A, medical society and
G. l.. S. C. Another Of his peculiarities is
that he carries watch which is fully 4
inches in diameter. He winds 1t with 8
pair of inch nippcrs.
DR.. Stevens has been in every state and
territory of the United States. Every sum-
mer he goes out lecturing and tells the
people all about phrenology, physiology
and physiognomy.
All the students like him, for he is a
jolly old fellow and acts as young as the
most of them. When asked If he thought
of getting married again, he smiled and
said: II shouldn't wonder. A man is
never too old to marry. kansas City

enthusiastic terms. The typical Hancock
hat surmounts tho head, and the shoulders
are free from epaulets.
The Hancock shoulder straps were char
actcristic features Of the generals dress.
1t Is said that he never wore the regulation
chapeau but twice, after which he threw
1t away and forever stuck to tho hat which
he made n part of history. He said it was
the only purely American hat, because 1t
came from tho early Puritans. Chicago

LONDON, May S.--A meeting TO protest
against tho Armenian outrages was held
here last evening. The Duke Of Argyll
presided, and tho hall was crowded to Its
utmost capacity. On one OF the walls OF
the hall was large placard on which was
inscribed the text OF article 81 os the treaty
OF Berlin, reading:
1.-The sublime porto undertakes TO carry
out, without further delay, the improve
ments and reforms demanded by local re-
quiremcnts I'm the provinces inhabited by
the Armcnians and to guarantee their Sc
curity against the Circassians and Kurds.
1t will periodically make known the steps
taken to this effect To the powers, who will
supcrintend their application"
In his speech opening the meeting, the
Duke Of Argyll said it was IA hopeless task
to overcome the causes Of corruption I'm
Turkey. It was now the absolute duty Of
the British government TO assume an nc
tive executive part on the Armenian qncs-
ton IL was its duty to open the windows
and let I'm the light.
A letter from Mr.. Gladstone to the Duke
of Argyll was read. In IL Mr.. Gladstone
said: II hope that the meeting you have
bravely undertaken 40 preside over will
prouucc ui ciccb pTopoToioHcu w 'ho
gravity Of the causes which occasioned It,.
1t Is with the most sincere grief that now,
when IL appears that the extremes OF
shameful outragcs in Armenia cannot any
longer bic treated as u matter Of doubt, l
contemplate the infatuation Of the Turk
ish government, determined, it would
seem, to do everything possible to pro-
duce its own ruin"
After remarking that 1t might be ex-
pected that the seclusion of the Bulgarian
horrors might have had the effect Of pre-
venting repetition, Mr.. Gladstone de-
clared that 'Europe's duty Is to place
no reliance upon mere words, but to adopt
effective steps to prevent a recurrence.
am confident that England will not shrink
from her duty and l trust she will have
the finn cooperation Of France and Rus
sia. II the other powers refrain, 1t is to
be regretted on their own account"
The letter concludes with expressing the
hope that moral pressure will suffice to in
duce the sultan and his advisers to sup
press these deeds of shame"
