"For My Mother"

'Roth arms must come off,"
There had been sad and unfortu-
nate accident. and the boy to whom
these words were addressed had been
one of the victims. Both arms gone,
and he his mothers only support.
Doctor" he said after a moment,
his white face eagerly upturned, sis
there no way to save them?"
II fear not. They are badly crushed
and mangled."
''No way?' he asked again.
''rhere might be chance" was the
hesitating reply, but it would be
torture for you, and most probably
you would have to lose them in the
end
Give them the chance, DOCTOR" said
the boy eagerly, "and l will stand the
suffering. l must have them for my
mother"
You could not stand it, my boy"
said q second surgeon, looking down
OH him. at is useless to try"
''Save them for my mother if you
cam was the reply. II will stand the
pain"
Eravely he stood it, too, day after
day and week after week, to the adj
IMITATION of all who came into con-
tact with him. 1t was not in vain,
either, though they told him he would
never have the full use OF his arms.
But he said brightly, they'll still
be able to work for my MOTHER

COFFEE STILL LOWER
ANOTHER CUT IN PRICE MADE ny
THE SUGAR TRUSTS CONCERN.
Areuckles Determined Not to Reduce
Rates, but to Go ON Building
Their Sugar Refinery.

NEW YORK. Dec. PAS an evidence
that the American Sugar Refining Com
pany intends forcing operations i'm the cof-
Zee trade, the announcement was made to
the coffee trade by the sugar people to-
day OF further reduction of y cent a
pound in the price of the coffee OF the
Wooison Spice Company. This makes a
total reduction OF l cent since the pur-
chase of controlling interest in the spice
company by the sugar people. Thus far
Arbuckle Brothers have not met the re-
duction and interest is manifested by the
trade regarding the course the latter firm
will decide on. The feeling in the coffee
trade is that the reduction of l cent a
pound is merely preliminary to a much Sc
verer one. Speculation was rife i'm the trade
to-day as to what measures the Arbuckles
will adopt in order to counteract the re-
duction in coffee, made by the sugar peo-
pie.
The reports circulated that the sugar peo-
pie do not intend to continue permanently
In the coffee business and that the pros
pect seemed TO be that If the Arbuckles
would give up their plan to erect sugar
refinery and agree to buy sugar for their
coffee made from the sugar people the
latter would sell the Woolson spice plant
u tuciii TtllTe from the business, was
discredited to-day by those possessing in
side information. The opinion thus ex-
pressed was that both concerns would con-
tinue as rivals in the trade and that event
ually an amicable adjustment world be ar
rived at, both concerns conducting their
separate coffee business.
A connection OF the firm of Arbuckle
Brothers stated TO a reporter to-day that
the Arbuckles have decided not to reduce
the price OF their coffees, despite the re-
ducuon of l cent just made in the price
by the Woolson Company. Our coffee -
said he. lis all right, and as our customers
would not, anyway, buy any other brand
OF co1ee. see no reason why we should
lower our price. AS matter of fact we
intend 10 conduct our business without any
regard whatever to the fact that the Wool
son Company has passed into the hands of
the sugar people. We never have bowed
our head to any previous opposition and
IL is not likely that We shall do so i'm the
present case. We are firm. not a corpora
ton, and we shall conduct business
along the lines previously followed Work
on our new sugar establishment i'm Brook
lyn Will be rapidly pushed and in a few
months we expect to have Ii in full work
ing order. Our business is here to-day
1t was reported to-day that efforts are
being made to sell the remaining seven
eighteenths of the Woolson Company stock
TO the sugar people, IL being alleged that
under the new agreement, the value of the
stock will depreciate.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 22.-There will be
a two weeks relief at least from acute
discussion of the Cuban question. and in
that time the conservatives in Congress
expect to be greatly strengthened. The
cavalry charge organized by the lingo
element came very nearly causing stam-
pede. but all danger OF precpitate and
ill-conSideTed action may now be said to
be over. The Olney view may not be right
in all respects, but his stand enables the
conservatives TO form for battle. and that
is what they doing. Advices from the
great business centers are being received
daily by Congressman and public men
generally. and the drift of expression is
that fears have been allayed and that no
apprehension of further real disturbance
is felt in any quarter. 1t was expected
that Senators Vest and Hill would be
heard in the Senate to-day. but neither
spoke on the Cuban question.
Il don't know" said Senator Vest, how
the impression got out that L would speak
to-day. | never said that l would.
u certainly can't reply TO Senator Vest
If he does not speak" said Senator Hill.
The Senate became aware of this condi-
ton of affairs early in the day but the
galleries remained in ignorance during a
great part of the session, many retaining
their seats in the belief that they would
be regaed with such debate as the pres
ent session has not witnessed. The mis-
apprehension as TO Senator Vests inten-
tions grew out of the fact that he had
said that he would call up the resolution
to-day He said nothing of any intention
to make a speech. but every one rushed
to the conclusion that he could have no
other purpose in getting it up. The OPP
ponents of the Cuban resolutions assert
that the Missouri senator's failure TO talk
is due TO the fact that he has been IN
duced to look into authorities which do not
sustain his views of the question, and that
he has concluded 10 investigate further
before speaking. The question is one re-
ouiring close attention TO precedents and
to constitutional points. and all recognize
that IL is necessary to proceed with care
We've got them beat, said Senator
Hale. sententiously. He spoke for the

LOST In A DISMAL SWAMP.
Colcred Boy Lives for Two Weeks ON
Berries and Barks of shrubs.

COLUMBIA. S. c., Dec. 22.-Details of one
OF the most remarkable cases of hardship
and endurance on record have been received
here from Plantersvile Georgetown coun-
ty. A few days before the unprecedented
sleet. which blocked roads and streets i'm
this vicinity. Daniel Jacobs went deer hunt
ing. and took with him John Edwards. a
little colored boy, ten years of age, TO help
put the dogs on deer's trail. The boy had
"a horn which he could blow. and was
warned to keep within hearing distance of
Jacobs. and not 10 venture beyond the edge
of "Carver's bay" This bay is a swamp.
part of which has never been explored. it
being impenetrable, except to wild beasts.
In some manner Jacobs and the boy be-
came separated The hunter devoted sew
eral hours to search, and then reported
the case to the boys parents and to local
officers. The colored people did not take
the loss or their son to heart and none of
their neighbors would venture into the
swamp IN search Then came the freeze
and Tor three days earth and trees were
covered with snow and ice After that all
hope OF the little hunters recovery faded
and reports of his death were sent ont.
Fourteen days after the loss of John
were scared half out of their wits bv seein o
strange looking little animal Crawling
out OF the swamp towards them. 1t was the
lost boy, who, clad only I'm cotton shirt AMI
ragged breeches. barefooted, had endured
hunger and exposure for two weeks With
wild berries and bark OF shrubs he had
kept himself from starving to death. and
with Spanish moss wrapped about his bod y
had held out some OF the bitter cold The
sound of the woodsmen's AK bad reached
him in his wanderings, and guided him 10

taken in any quantity. Physicians express
