shower nickels and dimes into the oustretched

Send down on us all Thy choicest blessings the
drummer was praying, when there was crash, as

The NIdl Trenspre.

Captain William Kidd. the notorious
pirate, who was tried in London aud
executed for piracy in the year 1901,
had ship called the Ouida, or Quedagh,
an East India merchantman which he
had captured near the mouth of the Red
sea. He then sailed for the West Indies
and, finding that the English had pro-
claimed him pirate and ordered his ar
rest, left the Quedagh with 30 of the
pirates and sailed to the north. There
is a tradition that these pirates trans
ferred their property to another less
unwieldy ship and burned the East In
diaman Another tradition is that she
was brought into the Hudson and, being
chased by an English man-of-war, was
sunk near the Highlands with most Of
her treasure. 1t is certain that there
was visible for time the wreck of some
large ship sunk in the sands at that
place. -Haly2r' Round Table.

PRETTY SUMMER HOME.
President Mckinley Discovers a
Cozy Hot Weather Retreat
Ii Is Called CHERRY Farm" and Is
Located Seven Miles Southwest
of washingtOn-Desc of.
the Place.

President Mckinley has chosen the
place for his summer residence. 1t is
known as Cherry Farm" seven miles
southwest of Washington, just back of
Fort Myer, and is reached by several
beautiful drives from the city proper,
one leading through Fort Myer, and an
other through Arlington. Cherry
Farm" is the property of ex-senator
John B. Henderson, of Missouri, who
purchased the beautiful place four
years ago from Thomas IL. Sypherd,
who, for nearly 25 years, was one of
the chiefs in the sixth auditor Office of
the treasury department.
In this beautiful and secluded place,
according to the Chicago Tribune, Presi-
dent and Mrs. Mckinley, with Secretary
and Mrs. Porter, will pass the heated
summer months.
The house is far back from the pub
lie road. Situated along a veritable for
est of fruit and shade trees, the small
summer cottage is as completely iso-
lated as though it were thousand miles
from the national capital. One must
have most intimate acquaintance with
the geography of the adjacent country
in order to find the house at all.
1t is reached by a narrow lane which
turns in from the main road about half
a mile below the small village of Ball
ston. This lane is an eXecrable one.
1t is full of rocks and ruts, and the de-
vious way in which it twists and turns
through the short pine brush is apt to
cause city bred person to lose his
bearings entirely.
Approaching the house one is i'm
pressed by the great number of fruit
trees which line the lane. Apple, pear,
peach and cherry trees are everywhere,
and the eye is unable to discover the
bounds of the magnificent orchard
which stretches away toward the north.
The first sight of the house is disap-
pointing, for it seems small. But it's full
size is not apparent from the front view,
for when making the turn in the drive
way it is seen that the building extends
quite good distance to the rear.
1t would be difficult to classify the
style of its architecture, for the reason

A REMARKABLE CAT.
1t Picks the Strings of "a Banjo and
Plays the Piano.

Randolph Blanel, of Mount Vernon,
was seated in his library one evening
several weeks ago when he heard Gu
rious sound in the Parlor below. The
rest of the family had gone to bed.
The sound was rather musical, being d
humming in various notes, broken by
little twangs. Mr. Blanel went down.
stairs softly and peered into the parlor.
There in the moonlight which shone
on the piano top he saw the house cat,
big black tom, called Steal.
Steal was sitting on his launches be-
eide the banjo which Mr.. Blanel's boy
Rob usually plays. Steal had learned
that by touching the strings with his
paws he could make them sound. 1t
was remembered afterward that the
cat always came into tS1e room when
Rob played, but that was supposed to
have been because tho hoy made great
pet of him.
Blanel watched the cat, apd says ne
saw Steal pick the strings, first touch
ing the fourth, then the third, the Sec
end and the first. Blanel tip-toed his
way back upstairs and listened to the
cats playing for over an hour, when
it ceased. Soon afterward Steal came
running upstairs, lay down before the
CRATE fire, and went to sleep.
Since that night the cat has gone reg
ularly to the banjo every night at about
II or 1880 o'clock and picked away
at the strings, manifesting his delight
by purring loudly. The cat has been
seen also picking at guitars strings,
the instrument having been left in the
banjo's place purposely. The cat does
what many other cats do, running
up and down the keys of the piano.
Rob Blanel says, however, that Steal
has a more delicate piano touch than
other cats.-N. Y. Sun.

the coy little dining-room, with two
china closets filled with handsome
tableware. This room has southern
exposure, and a generous bay window
adds to its attractiveness. Back of the
dining-room is the summer kitchen,
which is quite model in it's way.
In it are all the appliances necessary
TO culinary operations. A well of ex-
cellent water, which has a wide reputa-
ton in the country round about, is
also situated in this kitchen.
The upper floor is reached by hand
some winding stairway finished in oak.
Two large bedrooms, which face the
east, are the principal rooms on this
floor. They are of about the same
size, and are finished in terra Gotta,
and the walls are covered with paper
of delicate blue tint.
A third bedroom of somewhat smaller
size. back of the two principal ones,
completes the sleeping apartments,
though there are still two others of
small size over the kitchen. In every
room are open tile fireplaces.
When Senator Henderson bought the
house, in addition to other improve
ments, he had coy little four-room
cottage built. This cottage, it is said,
will be occupied by Secretary and Mrs.
Porter.
The stable is commodious one, and
will amply accommodate all the horses
likely to be needed by the presidential
family.

1dSS the summer
that it is combination of the old-fash-
Toned farmhouse and the modern sum-
mer cottage, Senator Henderson hav-
ing had it remodeled when he purchased
the property four years ago from Mr..
Sypherd.
1t is two stories in height, after the
style of many southern houses, and
there are porches and verandas on all
sides. The broad veranda on the north
side is a particularly inviting one, and
it is reached through doors leading
from both the drawing-room and the
dining-room.
The house is furnished handsomely
throughout, although the Henderson
family has spent very little time there.
The drawing-room and library are
practically one room, being separated
by portieres Of blue silk. The prevail
ing tone of the walls and ceilings of
both these rooms is blue, and the
furniture is of the kind usually seen in
summer cottages-rattan and cane be.
ing the principal materials of which
it is made.

DR.. Mcdonald
The Specialist.
Tuesdays March ! 9th.
POSITIVELY THE LAST DAY.

DR.. Mcdonald locates and describes
the most obscure diseases just as soon
as he sees the patient without asking
any questions, looking at the tongue,
or feeling the pulse. He tells at once
Just what the trouble is and what the
cause. He puts his finger directly up
on any ache, pain or disagreeable feel
ing, giving full history of the case
from beginning to eud, much better
than the patients can themselves.
The reason why SO many people doc
tor SO much and so long and are not
cured, is because their case is not prop
erly understood. A consultation. with
him is worth everything as the pa
tients are shown precisely what the
trouble is, and are told what they
must do in order to get well. No per-
son should think of doctoring any
further or of taking any more medi-
cine until they have consulted DIR.
Mcdonald His knowledge and the
advice he gives is certain to save end
less mistakes, trouble, expense and
suffering, no matter what your condi-
tion, how long you have been sick, nor
how many doctors you have tried, no
matter what your doubts may be,
there is hope. a perfect knowledge
of disease is power and one half its
cure. 1t is your life that is at stake,
you must either get well or suffer.
No matter if the best physicians have
given you up, or hospitals have turned
you away as incurable, no matter what
anybody says. look your own needs
squarely in the face, go now-to-day-
to this most eminent specialist. Sc
cure a correct history of your case and
q full statement as to what can be
done for you. This he gives free of
expense to all honest seekers after
