"NIan with the Branded Hand.r

The person who became famous in the
annals of America as 1.-The Man With
the Branded Hand was Captain JON
athan Walker. He was born at Ear-
wick, Mass, in 1899, and died at Lake
Harbor, Mich, on April 90, 1878. On
June 30, 1914, he attempted to steal
seven slaves from the coast of Florida,
the intention being to take them to Mas
sau, in the British island Of New Provi-
dence. When only short distance out,
he was overtaken and captured by the
sloop Catherine and taken back to Key
West. At that place he was kept in Jail
until he could be removed to Pensacola,
where a new trial was given. He was
sentenced to prison and chained by a
chain and ring bolt. He was kept for
some time imprisoned in that manner,
or until the time arrived to carry out a
further sentence, which read as follows:
Zone hour in the pillory, pelted with
understandable eggs; one year in prison
for each slave stolen; 5000 in money for
each slave, and all costs, and to be
branded upon the right hand with the
letters IS. S.. (slave stealer) by red
hot branding IRON" 50
That he lived through all this is at
tested by the fact that it has only been
10 years since his death. ST. Louis Re-

Japan Ahead of China.

Japan, in spite of her mistakes, stands
for light and civilization. Her institu-
tions are enlightened. Her laws, drawn
by European jurists, are equal to the
best we know. and they are justly ad-
ministered. Her punishments are hu-
name Her scientific and sociological
ideas are our own. China stands for
darkness and savagery. Her science is
ludicrous superstition; her law is bar
barous; her punishments are awful; her
politics are corruption; her ideals are
isolation and stagnation.
In thousands of Yamens throughout
China men are tortured every day, hung
up by the thumbs, forced to kneel upon
chains, beaten with heavy bamboos,
their ankles cracked, their limbs broken.
Every week men are publicly crucified
and hacked to death by the thousand
cuts" How is anybody to desire the ex-
tension of the sway of the latter rather
than that of the former without avow-
ing himself a partisan of savagery?-

Napoleon's Mother.

Napoleon's mother was Roman ma
iron both in appearance and by the
loftiness of her character. Prosperity
had no more dazzled her than bad for
tune had cast her down. Her parsimony
had been TESTED about, but her children
always found her ready to help them
with her private fortune When the en-
peror was at st. Helena, his mother sent
him full account of her fortune and
begged him to dispose of whatever be-
longed to her, an offer which Napoleon
did not accept.
When somebody pointed out to her,
at the time when she thus offered her
property to her son, that she was reduc-
ing herself to indulgence in this way,
"What does it matter?" she answered.
"When shall have nothing more, l will
take my stick, and l will go about beg
ging aims for Napoleon's mother. -

THOUSANDS DIE
From Exposure to Infectious
Disease and Impure Air.
Important Points About "Purifne," The
Great DiSinfGCtant,
is. r. Post. !

In these enlightened days of the nine
tenth century it is an acknowledged
fact that can ounce of prevention is
worth n pound of cure" and that ounce
of prevention was never better exempli-
fed than in the use of TIE great dis,n-
fectant known as ''Purifine." The public
has had many disinfectants brought to
their attention. Some were good, some
were bad, and some were simply Indif-
ferent, but none ever yet placed on the
market combined all the many good
qualities of 'Purifine.' In the first place
1t was left to the manufacturers of
'Purifine" to compound disinfectant
and antiseptic that would be odorless, a
most important matter as users CT disin-
fectants well know that the odor of the
disinfectant, especially when in constant
use, becomes sickcning and disagreeable,
oitentimes as much so as the odor or
NELL to be killed.
In word "lurfine" is odorless, and
is work, removal, not creating one odor
to cover another. Ii comes in highly
concentrated form, and when diluted
with two parts water there is rot the
slightest odor. rendering it suitable for
places where food is kept. In the bath
generally it is indispensable.
Then again il is non-poison"us, an all
important feature, for if used carelessly
by children or servants there are no
harmful results. and it is abso utely safe
to have around the house.
AS a sample of it's harmlessness it can
even be u 'ed in in refrigerators, and. if
accidently spilled no harm is done, and
it is particularly adapted for this use
The uses for which "Purifine' is used are
almost limitless, and to enumerate them
would fill pages of The Post. For flush
ing sewers. and for cleansing sinks,
drains, barns, urinals, water closets,
floor cloths and the bed clothes from
sickness or infection it is invaluable.
Then again the price is so low that it
can be used lavishly. and for hospitals,
asylums, public buildings. hotels, restau-
rants, school rooms, laundries, diaries.
markets, stables, packing houses and
canneries where disinfectant is used in
large quantities, this is a point to be
considered. One gallon is used to bar
rel of water. and for general use one
tablespoonful to pint of water.
"Puritine" is sure prevt ntive against
cholera, la grippe, small pox, diphtheria,
all fevers and contagious diseases.
! AS an antiseptic and healer "Purifine'
is invaluble, for it relieves and cures
sore throat, catarrh, stings and bites of
insects, burns and scalds. chilblains, sore
eyes, pimples, and for the bath it is a
delightful adjunct. 1t will instantly
stop any flow of blood, and physicians
will understand ITS full value from its
principal constituents, bromine and
chlorine. 1t is prepared only by the

DR.. HOLMES AND HIS PUBLISHER.
The Poet Was Very Careful and Exact ms
to His Copy.

W SOpys
When asked as to his business ac-
quaintance with Oliver Wendell Holmes,
Henry o. Houghton said that it began
with the first publication of the first
volume of The Atlantic Monthly, in the
initial number of which the "Autocrat
of the Breakfast Table" was published
in November, 1857.
''His copy was always written ON
common white letter paper in clear
hand and most carefully prepared, with
very few interlineations, and these were
only put in after the greatest delibera-
ton. He used to bring his copy to tho
Office himself and would afterward
come and get the proofs, which he most
carefully and painstakingly corrected,
frequently making additional changes
and correction therein when line in
cold type did not exactly suit him.
''Our firm did not print The Atlantic
in those days. We only stereotyped the
plates, but nevertheless we were brought
in contact with the young poet frequent
". In fact, he was in the Office every
few days.
le was NeIy pau uiouloi apouo hio
copy, and so careful was he as to detail
and the exactness of his facts before let
ting matter go to press that he caused
us very little trouble, and when any
thing was to blame he was far reader
to assume the responsibility than to CEN
sure others.
"He was in every way one of the
Il n l-,,,l
of a very sanguine temperament, al
though occasionally sad and reminis-
cent.
HE said to me not long ago that he
felt that he was living in another age
and generation, and that all the people
of his time, with whom he had lived,
had gone and left him. boston Her

WILLIAM AND silver
THE EMPEROR TO MAKE A CLOSE
STUDY ON MONEY.
Wants an International Understand
ing-Will Read an Extensive Library
Has Corps at Work.

BERLIN, July EMPEROR William
will make a study of the currency
question. During his long summer
cruise along the coast of Norway he
will devote so much of his time as is
not taken up by current affairs of the
empire, to delving into the subject of
the gold and silver and paper money
of the world.
He is taking with him an extensive
library bearing upon the subject, in
Guiding 1870 English books and PAM
phlets, in addition to large number
of German, French and Italian works.
Directions have also been left with the
Chief of the Royal Library of Berlin
to forward to his majesty any new
books, magazines or papers bearing
upon the subject, and they will be
sent so as to reach the emperor at var
ious points as he will touch them.
Baron Won Kiderlen-Watchter, the
German minister to Copenhagen, and
a corp of foreign Office employees has
been detailed to make eXtractions
from the writings on the currency
question and submit them to the En-
peror with remarks and compare
tive glossary.
In official circles it is expected that
a fresh attempt will be made by Ger
many in the autumn to arrive at an
international understanding on the
currency question. The preparatory
work in anticipation of this course
will be done during the summer by a
high official of the Foreign Office.
The currency question in the United
States as political factor is engaging
the attention of the Emperor. He has
been much interested in articles on
this subject that have appeared in
American magazines.

A TUSCAN PICTURE.

cool, mysterious chamber, where the glow
OF wintry sunshine from the small barred
square
Pierces white radiance through the dusty air,
And in the midst, with patient step and slow,
The white OK treads his round, with head bent
low
Beneath the yoke, taking his ample share
OF labor. The revolving wheel lays bare
The trough wherein 1t turns and where they
throw
Black olives to be crushed to this rich mass
Which fills the hempen baskets meath the
press,
Where, as the screw turns and the pile grows
less,
We see the oozy shining trickle pass,
The rich reward OF SO much care and toll,
Symbol of grace and sladness-prccious oil.

REOPENING AT INGLEsIDE.
The New Track VIII Begin It's Final
Meeting With an Excellent
Programme

Ingleside track will reopen to-day with
the gate-ss is customary on the opening
day-belng free to the ladies. With the
termination of the present two weeks
spell OF racing San Francisco's long siege
OF racing will be brought to close. The
programme OF events was arranged with
view of giving the many poor owners an
opportunity OF winning q purse. There
has been no reduction in the amount of
the purses. There is no incentive to pull
horses. When an owner wins a race he
receives the amount due in full, without
big reduction being made for back en-
trance money in past races. This no
doubt Is one reason why the new course
OF the Pacific Coast Jockey Club has so
quickly risen to be the representative
California racetrack and earned such an
enylable reputation for clean and honest
sport.
The programme for to-day, while not
above medlocrity, insures some excellent
racing. The two-year-olds will be given
ample opportunity to display their Prov
ess, two of the events being for members
OF the kindergarten division.
On Decoration day the Ullman handi-
cap for the jumpers over eight hurdles
will be the chief attraction. The entries

Saratoga. From this it was inferred that
Banther was making for the Santa Cruz
Mountains.
In that nelghborhood three men from
the Sheriff's office came upon the man.
Surely it was he who caused the hue and
cry. A hasty glance at him, one SEN
tence from his lips, and his description
other than Blanther. He spoke Spanish
to Mexican, Italian perfectly to a native
of the sunny kingdom; ne carried himself
like soldier, had handsome intellect
ual face, and admitted that he was an
Austrian. Even his left hand had an un-
slightly scar that was covered with muslin,
By actual measurement he was 5 feet 111z
inches in height. And he had just left
San Francisco.
Now Blanther's description told that he
spoke many languages huently, had
military bearing, handsome. cIear-cut
features, his left hand was wounded and
he measured feet IL = inches.
But this particular gentleman was not

A week ago Monday he went with some

County and Santa Clara, along the west
side to a short distance below Los Gatos.
They carried fowling pieces and were
equipped for camping out. Said he;
'In my hurry of packing and getting

it, in fact it never crossed my mind. So
when men began to hang around our

not notice them. Last Friday night a
