Regarding the vice presidential situa-
ton Newell Sanders, chairman of the
Tennessee state central committee and
Evans manager, said this morning; Mr..
Evans has a sufficient following to nomi-
nate him If 1t is left as an open fight. The
only thing In the way is the custom of
giving that place to the east when a presi-
dent is taken from the west. Notwith-
standing this Mr.. Evans will get a good
vote In the east, especially in the states of
Massachusetts,, Vermont and Ponnsyl-
vania. We expect the vote of the Della
ware members that have just been seated.
The opposition TO Morton in the New
York delegation develops the fnct that Mr.
Evans has many friends there, and we
confidently expect to get tho whole Nc
Hinley contingent in that state. We have
gained many votes in the western states. ~

WHAT MELBA SAYS.
ONE REASON FOR THE GREAT SINGER s
SUCCESS.
Never Nervous on the Stage.

The Chicago Record of oct 21,, under
personal mention column, has this to say of
the greatest vocalist in the world; Mad
anne Melba is never nervous on the stage, and
she attributes her immunity from the
misfortune which afllicts most opera singers
to her simple diet. She holds that indiges-
tion brought on by irregular and self-indul-
gent habits of eating, is the great cause OF
nervousness and worry among actors and
singers"
This is true not only of actors and singers,
but Of business men and women as well as
school children; in fact, the American nation
is fast becoming nation Of nervous, high
strung dyspeptics.
The idea is, not to diet and starve one Is
self, but to eat plenty of wholesome food and
after each meal take a harmless, but effective
digestive preparation like stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets Take one or two of these Tablets
after each meal and no matter how weak the
stomach, they viii thoroughly digest the
food; it does not remain in the stomach for
hours to ferment, decay, and poison the
blood and nerves.
While Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
pleasant to take and simple in their action,
yet they are probably the safest and most
reliable cure for all stomach troubles, loss
Of flesh and appetite, palpitation, sour or
acid stomach, gas and distress after meals.
Not only relief but permanent cure for all
stomach diseases except cancer the stomach.

RIDING FoR MILLIONS.
A Fisty-Miis Race for . Very Valuable
Nine.


A fifty-mile race over mountain trails
for a s2,000,000 mine was an exciting
adventure participated In by two
miners recently in connection with the
opening OF the Colville reservation in
eastern Washington, says the San
Francisco Chronicle. The necessary
notices were posted, first by John Nc
Ccol representing the Coleman syndi-
cate. composed largely OF federal office
holders. II includes Hugh Wallace. a
national democratic committeeman;
Judge Brinker, federal district at
torney here: +. c. Robertson. his as
sistant; federal ofllce-holders at Port
Townsend and Spokane. besides John
]. Malone and other prominent Tacoma
democrats. Judge Coleman lives at
Port Townsend. Some time ago Cole

reserve, fifty miles from Marcus. on the

ed the claim years ago. and he has
been watching 1t ever since. Coleman
filed eight claims on the property, but
the Russell syndicate, headed by Col.
j. N. Russell of Spokane, promptly
filed claims over his. A contest en-
susued, which is now in the courts
The Coleman syndicate prepared bill
for the opening of the reservation and
sent influential democrats to Washing
ton to push its passage through con-
gress 1t passed Feb. Is. Coleman
Immediately went to the mine. The
rights of the 'sooners" being question
ed, 1t was decided that man must be
stationed at Marcus to receive the news
of the presidents signing the bill and
then ride as fast as he could for the
claim. The other morning McCool
was at Marcus awaiting such a tele-
gram from Washington. The Russell
syndicate, equally clever. had Mark
Gilman at Marcus to perform a SINH
lar service. Early in the afternoon the
expected telegram came. McCool and
Gilman started at a break-neck pace
on their lonely fifty-mile race.
Each covered the distance in less than
five hours. Gilman got there first, but
he did not post any notices. Judge
Coleman was in possession. He had
with him an Indian and an Irishman
and they were prepared to use artillery
IL needed to keep unwelcome visitors
away. Gilman is quoted as stating
that he did not post any notices, be-
cause he did not wish to get shot.
McCool soon came up and Immediately
put up notices. The lie Fleur claim is
situated on Fourth of July creek and Is
said to be the richest claim in the re-
gion. 1t is estimated to be worth ST..
100000 as it stands.

said she was not there. The family felt
little uneasiness until night fell, and
then as she did not return they became
seriously alarmed. Search began, and
was continued through the next day,
and far into the night; but no clue to
the missing woman could be found.
Ralph came home towards daybreak
TO fling himself upon the couch for an
hours sleep and when he awake his
wife slept by his side. He started I'D
and looked at her, almost doubling his
own senses. How very beautiful she
was, her mouth with the just parted
scarlet lips, showing the pearls within,
one exquisite arm under her head, and
the long eyelashes curving upward
from the glowing cheek. Ralph touched
her hand and she awoke.
"Imogene" he said sternly, will Won
explain this problem to me? Here have
/ been searching for you these four
and-twenty hours and more, and now /
find you calmly asleep, without a single
word to me to relieve my anxiety.

occur again. If 1t does, shall be severe
ly displeased. Mark you that! My wife
must not subject herself to vulgar re-
mark"
we will pass the subject II you
please" she said. in such a manner that
he did not resume 1t.
AS the time passed Ralph Trenholme
grew cold and reticent. All his old gen.
iality seemed to have died out OF him.
He was never cross, but he was not af-
fectionate. He did not kiss his mother
and Agnes as he was wont, and though
he treated his wife with the most pune
tilious respect, she was to him no dear
er than any other woman.
Strange stories were afioat among the
servants and at last they reached the
ears OF the master. At first they excited
only his Indignation. He regarded them
merely as silly inventions of the elder
ly butler, who was of Celtic origin, and
most ridiculously superstitious. They
said that at nights the doors of the
chamber where Marina had died we're
heard to open and shut; that ghostly
feet paced back and forth across the
floor. and that sometimes late at night
pale, spectral lights cleaned from the
dusky windows, far out through the
gloom.
Mrs. Trenholme was greatly dis

tressed by these tales. and ralph posi-
lively forbade the discussion OF the sub
ject at any time in the house. He would
not encourage such foolish supersti-
ton. he said. Indignantly. But soon he
was forced to acknowledge that there
was something at work beside imagin-
alton. He was detained until late one
night in his study. which was in the
east wing of the house. and only a little
distance from the chamber OF blood.
Through the dead silence came dis
tinctly 10 his ear the sound OF a door
being opened. door which creaked
upon its hinges, like one long disused.
He remembered. with ha,f-suppress-
ed shudder, that the door Of that cham
Der creaked.
He sprang up. seized the lamp and
hurried TO the place. The door, which
had always been kept locked since the
tragedy, was ajar He entered the
chamber and stood appalled, by what he
saw. In the center OF the room, stand
ing just where the dark spot on the
carpet showed that there the crime had
been done. was tall. white figure, its
head enveloped in something misty and
white, its right arm extended toward
the empty chair where she last sat!
For a moment Ralph stood still with
but only for moment. He
was a man of nerve, and he reached
forward TO seize upon the apparition-

swept over him, extinguishing his
light.
The place was dark as Erebus. He
heard faint, shivering sigh at his very
elbow, then the soft closing OF a dis
tant door. and all was still. He CROPPED
his way out of the dreadful place, got
another light, and went up to his wife's
chamber. She was sleeping soundly,
and he did not disturb her, but sat
down to think over the strange thing
he had witnessed. But the more he
thought the more clouded his mind be-
came He could find no reasonable solu-
ton OF the mystery, and by-and-by he
fell asleep. Whec 10 awoke Imogene
was gone He knew IT once that she
had left the house, for a note directed
i her hand to himself lay on the table.
He tore II open and read:
"Mr. Trenholme-AgainI am called
away. Business may keep me absent a
couple of days. You need make no
search"
The copper country evening news. [volume] (Calumet, Mich.) 18??-1907, 1896-05-23

He kissed the lips that were so near
his own.
Mother. l will try TO crafty you.
will ask Miss Ireton to be my wife"
Mrs. Trenholme's face flushed rap
turously. Her lifelong wish would be
gratified. Her only son. the pride OF her
heart. would be the husband OF the mos,
beautiful and nobly-born woman in
that part OF the state.
That night, Ralph sat by the side OF
Miss lreton. He was pale and calm
nothing of the nervous expectancy that
characterizes the doubtful lover. He
took her hand In his and spoke very
quietly.
Miss Ireton. you know my sad his
tory. You know OF the blight that fell
upon my life little more than a year
ago, and knowing what you do. will
you be my wife,"
She looked into his cool eyes. and
saw that he did not love her. And she
had given him so much! All the hon.
age OF her imprisoned soul. She flush
ed crimson and set her white teeth
hard. IL was cruel TO be won in that
cold way; but anything to be near him.
She would have been happy as his dog.
II she could have been no more 10 this
man she loved so fervently. She put her
hot hand into his.
Il will be your wife," she said, as
coolly as he had spoken.
He touched the jeweled fingers with
his lips and placed upon one OF them a
diamond-the betrothal ring.
All that night Imogene Ireton tossed
restlessly on her bead. Her ambition, at
last. was to be satisfed-she was TO be
Ralph Trenholme's wife; but his love,
for which she would have given he-
soul. was not to be hers.
He shall love mer she .riea, pas
sionately. II will win him! Good heav-
ems! why is he so much unlike other
men that my beauty has no attraction
for him? Can it be that l am hideous
in his eyes?"
They were married in the first week
OF January. There was no parade-notI
even bridesmaid. save Agnes Tren-(
holme. The old house at the Rock shook
opposed all display. She would have no
wedding party, no bridal tour.
A terrible storm swept over Portlea
the night after Ralph took home a wife.
Its like had not been known on the
coast since that fearful storm when the
foreign ship had been wrecked outside
the harbor, and the waves had cast
Marina up at the feet of Ralph Tren-
holme. The old house at the Rock shook
with the force of the tempest, the very
trembled, the roar of the
waves on the rocks below was perfectly
deafening. Imogene paced her chamber
all the night through; she could not
sleep, she saba storm like this al
ways made her restless.
