CHAPTER XIV.

Mr.. Graeme had always been a favor
lite of Mrs. Dene, so it happened that,
coming often to the house, his former
friendly relations with Jane were insen-
sibly renewed. She forgot that once she
had been SO hurt at his having made her
the subject of a bet, and he that uneX-
planned meeting at the gates of Colonel
Prinsep's house. Mrs. Dene encouraged
his visits, not only for her own sake,
but because she thought that perhaps
something might come of this friendship
with Jane. The girl was looking so I'M
happy now, so unlike what she had al
ways been before; and, woman-like, Mrs.
Dene had a vague idea that matrimony
was a remedy for all ills Although she
had promised her support to Major Lar
ron, she would have been infinitely bet
ter pleased to see her protege engaged
to Valentine Gr;seme.
81 wonder you never fell in love with
Jenny Mrs. Dene said to Graeme, after
they had been sitting some time together
''How do you know | never did!' he
retorted quickly. 81 am not sure myself

"a foolish bet I made about her with
Iarron. Then-it has been whole chap
ter of cccidents-something occurred
which put me off again.

"Something which made her appear less
simple; not-not so perfect as L had al
ways thought her.

young widow, warmly

ApaSsiZ'S Test.

1t is said that however widely Pro-
fessor Agassiz, the famous Zoologist,
might differ in his opinions from an
other scientist, he never undervalued
any contribution which a scientific OPP
ponent made to zoology.
He extended the fame of Owen, the
eminent English zoologist, in this coun-
try, by enthusiastically pointing out to
all questioners his grounds for sim
cere admira ton of that scientist, and it
was only by chance that his auditors
learned how widely Agassiz's opinions
differed from Owens on certain much
disputed questions.
But for amateurs who took facts at
secondhand, and built up systems by
combining the discoveries Of various
specialists in science, he had a some
what contemptuous Indifference. One
of his friends asked him on one occa-
sion how he felt about the attack which
had been made on his scientific posi-
ton by certain accomplished scholar
advanced by eminent biologists, and
had decided that Agassiz must be rank
ed in the second class.
To the amazement Of his friend, who
regarded the attack as a matter of con-
siderable seriousness, Agassiz burst
forth into roar of laughter
'.Why, just think of it!' he cried.
s0The man undertakes to fix my place
among biologists, and he is not him
self zoologist!' And then seeing that
his friend did not apparently appreciate
the joke Of the affair, he added, with
evident enjoyment, "Why, don't you
know that he has never been an OBJ
seryer?'
With him observation" meant not
only the training of the eye itself, but
the cultivation and exertion Of all the
faculties behind the eye He once said
in reply to friend who asked him,
after he had been fifteen years in this
country, what he considered the best
result of his teaching.
81 have educated five observers. One
of them, to be sure, has turned out to
be my deadliest personal enemy; but
I still affirm that he is good observer,
and that is the best compliment | could
pay him were he my dearest friend"

EXPRESS CAR ROBBERY.
No Messengers Were Inside and the
Thieves Found Easy Pick
ing.

Troy, N. Y, Jan. 3O.-What was prob
ably an extensive express car robbery
on the West Shore has been discovered
in this city. There were two express
cars on the train, one for this city and
the other for Boston. Both had been
sealed at Weehawken, but between that
place and this city the Boston car had
been entered and robbed of everything
valuable. There was evidence that more
than one man had been engaged in the
job. The car was resealed here and sent
to Boston on the Fitchburg train due in
Boston this morning. 1t is impossible
to ascertain what was taken because
the waybills are sent direct from New
York to Boston and will have to be
checked off at the latter city. It is be-
lieved here that the robbers had confed-
crates at several small stations along the
West Shore road where the train
stopped.
Boston, Mass, Jan. 3O.-The express
car reported to have been robbed on the
West Shore road last night was one con-
tanning matter for the National Express
company The officials here admit that
the car was robbed, but refuse to give
particulars,

DIRE MISERY IN CUBA.
Widespread Famine Certain Unless tho
War is Soon IG ,ded.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 31-Repre-
sentative Money of Mississippi, senator
elect from that state. has recently re-
ceived adyices from CUBA according to
which the devastation of the island has
been carried to such an extent that pow
erty, famine and widespread suffering
will surely prevail in the near future
unless by some means the hostiIities are
brought to a close. The writer saws that
the crops of this season have practically
been destroyed throughout most of the
island, the cane mills stopped, bridges
burned, roads torn UP and business al
most entirely killed for the time In the
province Of Santa Clara. where 90. OGO
sacks of sugar were ground last year,
no wheels have been turning this season,
for to start q mill is to give signal to
the insurgents TO blow it up.
The inevitable result of the continu-
ance of the war, the writer says. will be
famine throughout the farming dis
tricts Of Cuba. The United States. be-
ing the nearest powerful neighbor of the
island. and having always responded to
calls from suffering countries, will nat
urally be looked to to furnish assistance

Spanish Forces Being Reinforced as
They March Through

Eayana, Jan. 31.-Gen Marin, the act
Ing captain-general of the Spanish forces
here, who left this city yesterday with
his staff and number of prominent
merchants and clerks familiar with the
province of Pinar del Rio, who will act
as scouts, reached San Antonio de Los
Banos and made his headquarters there
last night. He has with him a detach
ment Of cavalry and hopes to strengthen
it considerably before engaging Gomez,

effect a junction with the insurgent
forces under Maceo. Wire communica-
ton with the front is interrupted today
Spanish officers here say that an inn
portant engagement will be fought be-
fore Gen. Marin returns to Havana.

AUGMENT PACIFIC FLEETS,
England and Japan May Join Forces
Against Russia.

New York, Jan. 3O-A dispatch to the
Herald from st. Petersburg says that
the Noyoe Nremya publishes the follow
ing special dispatch from Vladivostoc1:
''News comes from Yokohama that the
English squadron in the Pacific is being
augmented by six warships. At the
same time considerable increase is be
ing made in the Japanese navy.
England and Japan are evidently pre-
pairing energetically to meet possible
complications arising out of the Corean
and Russo-C Chinese understanding.
"Noyosti says on the subject of
alleged RussoTurkish treaty: Russ
can guarantee the existence of Turkey
only if reform such as the opening of the
Dardanelles to Russian warships be
offered. 1t is impossible to adduce any
valid reason why Russia shall be forced
to lock I'm her fleet in the Black sea.
1t is simply a policy of outrageous vio-
lence to which Russia submits because
she loves peace, but the prohibition is
bound to disappear

BURNED IN THEIR HOME.
Harvey Page and Family Perish in
Flames at Marshall, Mich.

Detroit, Mich. Jan. 3O.-A special to
the News from Marshall. Mich, says
that Harvey Page, wife and two young
sons. aged respectively 3 years and 3
months. were entrapped and burned to
death in their home in Marengo town
ship. six miles east of this city. at 2
o'clock this morning. Harvey Page and
family occupied one-half of the .iouble
log house where they lived, his brother
Wilbur and family the other half. The
latter family, however. slept on the first
floor. Harvey's family slept upstairs.
When Wilbur discovered the fire he and
his hired man tried vainly to reach the
helpless people upstairs, who were ever
come by smoke and burned to leath.
There was but one window in the up
stairs room. The house burned 70 tie
ground and the bodies horribly charred,
fell into the cellar.

Prof. Wright of Yale Makes Successful
Photographic Experiments.

New York, Jan. 31-Prof A. w.
Wright, who occupies the chair of ex-
perimental physics at Yale university,
and is in charge of the Sloan physical
laboratory, has, according to the Even
ing Posts New Haven correspondent,
made successful experiments recently in
photographing objects behind Opaque
bodies by the agency Of cathode rays, in
which Prof w. C.. Roentgen of Vienna
has been reported to have achieved re-
uarkable results. Prof Wright's ex-
periments were made with great va
riety of substances, and it was found
that strong impressions were obtained
upon Photographic plate even when it
was enclosed in an Opaque wrapping of
black paper and covered with pine
board half an inch thick

MAX O'RELL LECTURE,

The noted lecturer Max OReIl,
lectured at the Vendome last night
to an audience that must have nun
bered near / 900 people The girls
schools of the city were out in large
numbers and tue audience, was, as
a rule, composed of the most IN
teIhgent people. o. course those
who had read his books and had not
read his letters in the Figaro was in
the great majority. The lecturer
was at his best, and the subject
Her Royal Highnes, Woman, WAS
treated in a very attractive way.
He had the best of people in his
audience, and he gave them the
best at his command The lecture
was too far above the average
platform effort to be at all COM
pared with them aud sparGIed Wi h
true humor alOthe way thruu h.
Even a gesture conveyed a hum
orous impression and tura of the
head would convulse the audience.
His description Of the national
characteristics of the woman of
France, England and america was,
so far as the hearers could Judge,
true to life in those countries and
was accompanied throughout with
so many little witty touches that
they were kept in almost continual
laughter, He tribute to woman, in
whatever country she might be
found, was one Of the really pretty
parts of the lecture and the only
place where he indulgedin generaIi-
ties. Taken altogether it was one
OF the most enjoyable efforts on the

promises to form quite an amount
of interest in the coming guberna-
torial contest. Hon. j. II, Harrod,
the only avowed candidate in favor
of a law Of this kind is gathering a
strength around him that is going
to give all other candidates much
trouble to keep hiw from walking
in ahead of them all when the state
convention meets This commits
sion question is one Of the most i'm
portant state questions before the
people and if we have a governor
friendlySto it, it will be an cas- er
matter to pass a law to keep our
people from being robbed by high
railroad freight rates
The governor should not only be
elected and Instructed by the peo-
pie on this need, but those running
for the legislature should be made
to declare their position voted for
The people elect Officers to serve
them and not their own iuclinations

Purchasing Power of Cbean Morax

Maj. Sanders, of Louisville. who served
in the confederate army, recalls that in
January, 1865, he tried 70 buy hand
kerchief in Meridian, Miss, but found
he could not afford it, the price lin con-
federate money! having been $500, and
as compromise he bought a paper coll
lar for $125. With gentlemen to whom
collars and handlerchiefs are "a super
fluffy such object lessons from the past
will have very little weight. The marvel
is that the imitation craze should have
got such hold upon the people of the
south, where the bitter experience with
confederate money should have lasted
for the present generation at least
