An accident on the English coast,
near Grayesend, between the coal
barge True Love and the schooner
Hrayesend, brought to light the fact
that the former vessel was built in Phil
"delphia in 1864, and is probably the
Oldest vessel afoat. She was formerly
tine bark True Love and was built in
hensington 133 years ago. Her|tim-
bers are of live oak and she is believed to
have been sound and stanch until she
was run down by the Gravesend. No
vessel has been afoqt so many years as
the True Love and probably none ever
will be.

1t is leze majesty in Germany TO out

Otto Schoen, young Berlin architect of
high family fled from his native land
lately in fear of the wrath of his en-
peror, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
The facts in this singular case are as
follows:
Schoen was employed to plan and build
a magnificent restaurant and concert
hall near the kaiser's palace at Potsdam.
Without intending disrespect, he drew
plans which provided for building one
story higher than the emperor's. When
the building authorities learned of this,
they stopped the work on Schoen's
building, telling him he was beside him
self with impudence to dream of putting
up structure that should overtop the
palace.
That day, while at dinner in res
taurant, Sehoen aired his injured feel
inGs, bluntly declaring the conduct of
the authorities was infamous. The next
day hcwGs sumnloncd before the lieuten-
ant of police of that district, who told
him that his remark in the restaurant
had been overheard and that he stood
guilty Of having insulted his emperor,
the penalty for which was imprison-
mcnt and possibly worse.
Schcru was frightened and asked the
lieutenant what he should do. The lat

School of Gardening for Girls in II
suburb OF Berlin.
A London paper tells of q school of
gardening for girls in suburb of Ber-
lin. 1t is n comparatively new venture,
having been founded two years ago by
a private lady. At present it seems to
be succeeding. The pupils-15 in num-
ber-do the work entirely without ex-
traneous aid, growing all sorts of vege-
tables, as well as apples, melons, grapes,
pears and cucumbers, for which a ready
sale is found. They wear a dark gray
uniform, consisting of bodice and 4
skirt of reasonable length, which, by
an ingenious arrangement, can be
made quite short for working in and let
down at will. The girls beat all the
men at a recent board of agriculture ex-
animation, and one of them has just
obtained post as gardener TO a gen.
tleman at salary of $120 year, with
board and lodging. They are all fine
specimens of healthy, vigorous young
womanhood. Commenting on this, the
lady says: perhaps we see the thin
edge of the wedge! In the near future
women may be eligible for head gar
deners' posts at good salaries. Andwhy
not? We have finer taste than men and
should be quite in our element design
ing exquisite pleasure grounds. AS for
the suitability of the employment, it
may be urged that digging is not harder
work than many of the athletic wom-
ans recreations, nor is it a dirtier proc
ess than tramping through wet turniI5
fields after guns"

FAIR FIELD EoR WOMEN.
A writer Tells What Her Feminine
Co-VVorkcrs Should Have.

CO-WOrkcrs ShCulu Have.
All women who are active in business
or professions want is II fair field and
nofavor, says Margaret Sangsterin Dem
orest's Magazine. We ask for moth
ing on the ground of sex. We are will
ing TO compete with and worl; with men
on their own ground and desire to be
measured by the same standards. We
demand no courtesy further than that
which prevails between gentlemen; we
expect no Difference. In business life
men and women are simply workers,
and the more the element of sex is in
truded the greater the interference
with the success of women.
/ know n young woman who went
into Il newspaper Office on purely busi-
ness errand--to sell an article, in fact
and was indignant because the re-
rorters, all of whom were busy writ
ing, did not jump to their feet and offer
her IL seat. They were absorbed in
their work, and most of them were
probably unconscious of her presence.
Perhaps 25 women enter the Office of a
great New York daily every day. You
can easily see how it would interfere
with business if the reporters should
Immediately stop writing and pay them
the little attentions they are accus-
toned to in the drawing-room. The
woman who expects these shows her
ignorance of business; if they are nee
essary to her peace of mind she is out of
place in the business world.

WILD HORSES.
Ccnainr Eoncatioatcd animals Away
From Home.

CCnAinG ECnCatiCGtcd Animals Away
From Home.
Wild horses are getting to be quite
numerous again on the flats in the
Texas Panhandle and in Beaver county.
They are very troublesome, says the
Cincinnati Enquirer, as they lead away
the horses belonging to the cow men
and graugcrs, and when Il domesti-
Gated horse once gets with u wild bunch
it is an all days job and sometimes it
takes several days TO catch him. The
LATEST old crowbait alive, or the gen
tlost family horse, after associating for
a few days with these mustangs, seems
to forget his raising; all the old-time
wildness Of his forefathcrs seems to
crop out in him, and, although formerly
he may have allowed himself to be
caught anywhere, he will not then per-
nit a man to get within a half mile of
him. About the only way to receiver a
horse of this kind is to run the entire
bunch down and corral them, or to rope
the ones wanted. Nearly all our stock
men have lost horses in this manner,
and the mustang, instead of being
looked upon with respect and with COW
ctous eyes, as in the past, is now con-
sldered an intruder and a pest, and is
shot down whenever opportunity of
fers. Since horses became so cheap
there is no object in catching nus
tangs, and this once valuable repre-
sentative Of the best friend of man is
now classed in the same category as the
coyote and other "varmiuts."

that is, the combination Of classes in
accord with business principles YOU
state the distressed condition Of the
treasury" of the College This is
scarcely the exact statement The
truth is Marietta College meets every
obligation practically ION sight
But the Womans College was under
taken as an experiment, in the hope Of
an endowment; after four years it
has been charge of about $50, 600 upon
other funds of the College. The late
action of the Trustees was taken to
avoid a distressed condition of the
treasury,
Marietta College for Women" will
be continued, in form perhaps a little
different, but in effect, it is believed,
with better results. The home and
the attractive influences for the girls,
altogether admirable, will not be in
the slightest degree diminished. The
college, meyer had as sure foundation
as IN tne present, but some expenses
Will have to be cut off.

TWO MEN KILLED BY A MOB,
Many Shots Fired Into n Room Where's
Woman and Two Children Were.

At the little shanty occupied by John
Mitchell and his family, q few miles north
OF Mountain Grove, Mo-, occurred n re-
voting crime, committed by IN Infatuated
mob. Besides Mitchell and his wife and
two babies, there were in the room Dave
Mitchell, his brother, and a step-brother
named Jack Cofman. ,
About $50 u. m. they were aroused by q
loud rapping, and a fusillade of shots from
revolvers and shotguns then came tearing
through the frail wooden door. John
Mitchell jumped out Of bed, calling to his
brother that he was shot, Staggering
across the room to where his brother was,
he sat down upon the edge of the bed.
By this time the mob had gone around
the shanty and began pouring q volley of
bullets through the little window, striking
the already injured man in the face and
chest. As he fell lifeless into the arms of
his brother, Cofman rose up In bed only to
meet a similar fate.
About five days ago this same mob visited
the Mitchell home, but found only Dave.
Taking him into a clump Of bushes. he was
whipped with hickory switches until he be-
came partly unconscious, and was told that
should he be found in the neighborhood
later he would be dealt with much worse.
The Mitehells, 1t Is alleged, nave been
guilty of petty thieving for some time. The
immediate neighborhood, however, is high
ly indignant over the affair, and threaten
to lynch any Of the mob captured. There
we're about twenty men in the mob.

Turkey Yields to Russia, Backed by Bull.
garia's Troops.


There was a sudden and unexpected
change in the Greco-Turkish military and
political situation when Russia quietly
showed her hand and thereby forced Ger
many and Turkey out of the game, to all
intents and purposes. Turkey, supported
by Germany, was practically defying Rus
STA. France, Austria, Great Britain and
Italy, insisting upon the annexation Of
T~hessaly, in addition to a huge war indem-
nifty, and was determined to march upon
Athens.
Then came a rumor that Bulgaria was
preparing to mobilize her forces. This
caused alarm at the Sultan's palace, and
the feeling Of CONSERVATION was increased
when the Porte received official adviees
announcing that orders had been issued
for the partial mobilization of the
Bulgarian Army. There was a
hurried consultation of the Minis
tiers. The war party was for further def
ance, but In the end pacific ~counsels pre-
vailed, for orders were telegraphed to
Edhem Pasha, the Turkish COMMANDMENT.
