NO VALUABLE BOOTY.
A Boston Millionaire Who Doesn't
Propose TO Enrich Robbers by
Keeping Solid siIverware.

A millionaire living in the suburbs
of Boston has not piece of solid sill
YER on his premises. He buys the new
est and prettiest things in plated ware
and replaces them before the shabbi-
ness sets in. His house is rather un-
protected, as ii sets well back from
the street and is some distance from
| neighbors and surrounded by trees
whose thick shade is very friendly
toward night prowlers. About four
times year he discovers that his house
has been entered at night and every
piece of silver tested. But not one
will be missing for il Is not worth car
| rying away. He quietly chuckles as he
remarks that all the silver in the world
would not be a compensation for dis
turbed slumbers and the anxiety of
caring for such valuable property. An
easy mind assures deep sleep and so
he retires each night with the cor
sciousness of having nothing about to
excite the cupidity of INSCRIPTIONS
persons. Reports of poverty like those
of wealth soon spread in the profess
sion and the house which several bur-
glars nave NOteu WOft0leSS Is never OlS-
turDed NOW except by newcomers who
do not credit the stories. The whole
place is fastened in the most super
fetal way, just secured enough TO keep
out sneak thieves and make easy work
for professional house breakers.
SO all the beautiful ia BILE ware which
has adorned the tables of millionaires
on great occasions is quietly reposing
in vaults, and its duplicate in plated
ware is adorning the country home.
Even at Newport, where entertaining
is as lavish as in New York, solid silver
is conspicuous by its absence, and the
entertainers are at no pains to con-
ceal the fact. These complete sets cost
as high as $4,000, but that is principal
ly for workmanship-the intrinsic
value Of the lot is very little. They in

WIRELESS TELEGRApHY.
Successful Experiment. at Cowes~
Messages Between Queen vic-
toria and Prince of wales.

A remarkable series of experiments
has been performed during the past
few weeks by Mr.. Marconi at Cowes.
This distinguished inventor has sue
cessfully transmitted messages with
out the use OF wire from Queen Vie
toria at Osborne house to the prince
of Wales on board the royal yacht 0s-
borne, four miles away.
This is the most successful series
of experiments that has thus far been
performed with the new wireless
telegraphy.
Day after day the queen at Osborne
house has been enabled to send COM
munications to the prince OF Wales on
board the yacht at her anchorage, and
the prince has sent replies, which were
received as perfectly as II they had
gone over the ordinary wires instead
of through the air.
An even more astonishing feat than
this was successfully performed by
Mr.. Marconi few days ago. The royal
yacht left her moorings in the harbor
and went for short cruise along the
coast. When the yacht was near Ryde
able TO pick her up on his instrument.
While she was going at full speed sew
eral messages were transmitted from
the yacht to Osborne house and re-
| plies were received by the prince of
Wales.
The usual anchorage of the Osborne
is distant about four miles from the
operating station on land which Mr.,
Marconi has been using. Across this
strip of water the messages have been
flashed at the rate of $4,000 miles a
second. Mr. Marconi has now devel-
opcd his system of wireless telegraphy
so that his messages can be received
either on a tape or by means of a bell.
| The royal family at Osborne house
have taken n deep interest in the per-
formance of these remarkable expert
ments, which have been a great con-
venience to her majesty, inquiring
daily as to the health of the prince of
Wales and receiving replies within a
| few moments.
The instrument on land is placed In a
little teahouse in front of Osborne
house, called Ladywell cottage, where
the members of the royal family have
been daily visitors.
II has been found by Mr.. Marconi
that stormy weather, instead of inter
rupting his wireless telegraphy, has
been an assistance, and some of the
best results have been achieved in o
dense fog.-N. Y. Herald.

UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER.

GN1oNDl lOANA1 pO hh
On the morning of July 10 Darcie,
still prisoner to his wound and guest
of the Big Horn, was strolling restless
ly about the managers handsome din
ing-room, his right arm in sling, and
a cigar he was not smoking in his left
hand. Wan had just entered with a
tray of glass and silver, which he was
putting away in the sideboard at the
end of the room.
"John-Sam-where is your mis-
tress?'' Darcie inquired, with a vague
ness in the second person which put
the heather upon his dignity at once,
1t did not please Wan to be addressed
by divers and sundry names that were
not his own.
NO sabe; maybe gone out" he an
swered shortly.
Darcie was quite sure that she had
not gone out, having been listening the
last hour for her steps about the house.
He crossed the room as Wan was leav-
ing il, and absently slipped a dollar
into his discreetly receptive hand.
Think you can't find her. ehP"

Wan. mollifed and relenting.

every appearance of polite concern.
His humor was wasted on Darcie.

REVISION ASSURED.
Cabinet Is Unanimous Since
Cavaignac's Resignation.
NINE. DREYFUS PLEA FOR JUSTICE.
Cabinet Meeting Today to Act ON Her
Demand For Eetrial Of Her
Husband-Her Letter to
- NJ. sarrlen.

PARIS, Sept. 5.-Owing to the reslg-
nation of NJ. Godefroy Cavaignac Of
the ministry Of war, President Faure
returned to Paris yesterday morning
and conferred with M. Delcasse, minis
ter for foreign affairs; NJ. Bourgeois,
minister of public education, and Cen
eral Zurlinden.
The cabinet win meet today express
~ to deal with a request from Nine.
Dreyfus for revision of the proceed
fngs Of the court martial that condemn
ed her husband.
As the cabinet Is now practically
unanimous in favor of revision-partly
because ministers are aware that there
Is no other method of satisfying public
feeing-the outcome of the meeting is
almost a foregone conclusion.
1t is not thought that NJ. Cavaignac's s
retirement viii involve the resignation
of other ministers. The fact that Gen
eral Zurlinden has been in conference
with NJ Faure is taken to mean that
he viii succeed M. Cavaignac at the
war Office
The ministerial conferences, which
have been continued throughout the
day, have had to do with the details of
revision. There is no foundation for the
report that the chambers will be i'm
mediately convoked.
According to lie Soir, M. Faure, who
received NJ. Cavaignac yesterday,
strongly urged him to withdraw his res
ignatlon. The paper also asserts that at
the council today the president viii en-
deavor to prevent a decision in favor of
revision. On the same authority it Is
anndunced that General Roger, chief of
IT, Cavaisnac's military staff, will re-
tire at his own request.
The name of General Saussier, former
military governor of Paris, is mention
ed in connection with the war office
portfolio.
In her letter to NJ. sarrien, the min
lister Of justice. Nine. Dreyfus says she
addresses him again, since he alone has
the right to demand revision on the
ground Of a new fact" She argues that
Lieutenant Colonel Henry's admission
of forgery deprives his dispositions and
acts OF all weight and concludes her ap-
peal by calling upon NJ. Sarrien to lis
ten to the voice Of public opinion and
put an end to the punishment of a loyal
and innocent man"
The Temps, Liberte and Journal des
Debats express regret at M. Cavaig-
nac's ''obduracy," asserting that it adds
to the difficulties of the situation.

remains of Lieutenant Colonel Henry al
