1t was Christmas day at Jessica's
home and the family We're just gather
ing around the table, spread with gem
erous Christmas cheer.
Jessica, who was coming through the
hall from the parlor, stopped suddenly,
at the sound OF a quick ring at the door
bell.
As she went to the door and opened
it the sight of Jack standing there, for
an instant stopped the beating of her
heart.
But it needed only a glance into his
frank eyes to bring, back faith and love,
even before the strange tale was told
that accounted for Jacks desertion

TWO Important Decisions.

Two important decisions have recent.
ly been rendered by state supreme
courts, as follows:
The supreme court at Knoxville,
Tenn, has rendered decision uphold
ing the anti cigarette law passed by
the last legislature, forbidding the i'm
portation and sale of cigarettes in Ten
nessee. The court says that cigarettes
are not legitimate articles OF COM
merce, and therefore are not within
the provisions of the federal constitu-
tion regarding trade.
The supreme court of Georgia rem
dered decision last zweek which left
no doubt about the status of social
clubs in respect to liquor selling on
Sunday. These social clubs are put on
the same footing with public barrooms
and the court holds that q club has no
more legal rights to keep open on Sun
day than hosel bar has.

CAPT. SI6SBEE DANCED.
Farewell Ball of the Crew of the
BattIeShip Texas.

Officers, marines and sailors of the
battle-ship Texas attended q ball in
Lenox Lyceum last night, says q spe-
cial to the Globe Democrat. It
was complimentary, and was paid for
by sailors as q farewell to their wives
and sweethearts ashore. The big
Texas is now being cosled at Tompkins
Vile. She will have her bunkers filled
when she puts to sea under sealed Or
ders on Monday. her sailors believe
she will start on long trip to Manila,
so they gave their farewell dance to-
night. Her officers would not say what
they thought.
Capt. Sigsbee, who was there all
evening, said the ship would 60 away on
secret orders as soon as she was coaled.
That was to be done as
soon as possible, and he
did not think the big battle-ship would
sail before Monday. When he was
told that 300 sailors and marines of the
Texas were bidding farewell TO 800
pretty girls and prettier women on the
dancing floor he only laughed. After
the grand march Capt. SiRsbee danced
q graceful qusdrille with his sister
Then he and his party withdrew to the
upper boxes, while the jolly sailors and
their partners had the floor.

The complete reorganization of the
national guard is a matter to be kept
steadily to the front until it is salts
factorily settled. The late war showed
oonclusively that the present system
is utterly worthless so far as national
interests are concerned. 1t Is very
clear that the volunteer reserve force,
as the national guard may be called,
should be organized in each state &C.
cording to we'll defined plan. elastic,
so as to suit varied conditions, but uni
fed. so as to avoid confusion when the
forces from several different states are
msssed. 1t would be good plan to
have q conference of regular and re-
serve officers who would be empower
ed to agree upon q set Of common re-
gulations which could afterwards be
adopted by the several states. 1t
should at least be provided that the
form of organization and the arms and
ammunition should be alike through
out the country. 1t would also be q
good plan to have interstate camps
every few years, and to raise the
volunteer reserve to as high stand
ard as the regular army so far as this
could be done by hard work and ap-
plication to business.

THE KELLY MOTOR.
Keely's Secret Did Not Die When
He Did.


A special dispatch to the Globe-De-
mocrat from Philadelphia says: The
secret of Keely did not die with the
noted inventor. Such was the posi-
tive statement made this morning by
B. l.. Alderman, of New York, pres
ident of the Keely Motor Company,
when asked to set at rest the rumors
that Keely's life work died with him,
and that the secret of how to get force
and power out of nothing was lost.
Mr.. Ackerman made the following
statement:
when 1 arrived at Mrs. Kelly g
residence yesterday found her utterly
Frustrated as a result of her husband g
death, and as she was unable to talk to
me l came away without accomplish
ing the object of my visit 1 will await
her pleasure and convenience. During
the past few days 1 have learned that
Mr.. Keely prepared manuscript
of more than 1000 pages, which re-
veals all the secrets discovered by him.
That manuscript, understand, was in
the possession of Mrs. Keely, and there
fore, while it Is almost too early to dis
cuss the future of the work, it seems to
me that with the information in the
manuscript and the knowledge in the
possession of Lancaster Thomas, the
chemist, and Chss. B. Collier, there
need be little doubt but that the work
of Mr.. Kelly will be carried toward. !"

THE WEEKLY HERALD

WHEN Atlanta proposed some time
ago to hold "peace jubilee" the pre-
sident quietly suggested that the title
"peace jubilee" be avoided, and that
the celebration be confined 10 dem
onstration over the success Of Ameri-
can arms in the war. The war could
not then have been considered over,
and the president acted wisely and the
promoters of the celebration acted
wisely also in changing its style. Now
that peace is fully assured, however,
and all that remains Is the formal sign
ing OF the treaty, the strongest reason
for the presidents request has lost It's
force. 1t will be we'll nevertheless to
postpone further ''peace jubilees" un-
til the treaty has actually been ex-
changed. Nothing could be more
timely or more appropriate In our own

BALLAD OF MANILA BAY.

Your threats how vain, Corresidor;
Your rampired batteries. feared no more;
Your frowning guard at Manila gate
When our capita in went before!
Lights out. Into the unknown gloom
From the windy. glimmering. wide sea-room.
Challenging fate In that dark strait
We dared the hidden doom.
But the death in the deep awoke not then:
Mine and torpedo they spoke not then;
From the heights that lcomed on our passing
line
The thunders broke not then.
Safe through the perilous dark we sped,
Quiet each ship as the quiet dead,
TIL the guns of Ell F raile roared-too late.
And the steel prows forged ahead.
Mute each ship as the mute-mouth grave,
ghost leviathan cleaving the wave;
But deep in its heart the great fires throb,
The Travelling engines rave,
The rondcrous Listons urge like fate,
The red throat furnaces roar elate,
And the sweating stokers stagger and swoor
In "a heat more fierce than hate.
So through The dark we stole our way
Past the z rim warders and into the bay,
Past Kalibuyo. and past Salinas
And came at the break Of day
Where strong Cavite stood to oppose
Where from a sheen OF silver and rose
thronging of masts. a soaring of towers,
The beautiful city arose.
How fine and fair! But the shining air
With q thousand shatteriEg thunders there
Flapped and reeled. For the fighting foe
We had caught him in his lair.
Surprised, unready his proud ships lay
Idly at anchor in Bakor Bay
Unready, surprised. but proudly bold,
Which was ever the Spaniard's way.
Then soon on his pride the dread doom fell,
Red doom,-for the ruin of shot and she'll
Lit every vomiting. bursting hulk
With q crimson reek of hell
But to the brave though beaten, hail!
All hail to them that dare and fail!
To the dauutless boat that charged our fee,
And sank In the iron hail!
Manila Bay! Manila Bay!
How proud the song on our lips today!
A brave old song Of the true and strong
And the will that has its way;
OF the blood that told in the days of brake
When the fight was good for the fghting'i
sake!
For the blood that fathered Farragut
II the blood that fathered Blake;
And the pride of the blood will not be undont
While wars in the world and fight to bt
won.
For the master now, as the master Of old,
Is "the man behind the gum"
The dominant blood that daunts the foe.
That laughs at odds. and leaps to the blow
1t Is Dewey's glory today. as Nelson's
A hundred years ago!
