why She Was Avoided.

In the course of an afternoon stroll
the other day the writer CHANGED to be
passing a village schoolhouse as the
youngsters trooped out.
A few yards in front, three little
girls possibly about 6 or years of age,
trotted along.
Presently they were joined by a
fourth, who approached them in timid,
hesitating sort of way.
"No, Lily, said one of the young
sters, tits no use. Mother says we are
not to speak to you. .
The one addressed as Lily shrank
back, and with tears in her eyes watch
ed her playmates pass on.
They had not gone many yards before
one of them, apparently the youngest of
the trio, rap back to the disconsolate
Lily.
Placing her tiny hand on the sorrow
ing ones shoulder, she whispered with
kiss:
Don't cry, Lily; don't cry. It's not
because we're not friends or because you
call us nasty names or because you re
not as good as us or because you don t
learn your lessons as we'll as we do; it's
because you We got the whoopin cough r
With which the little comforter be-
slowed another kiss and ran after her
companions. Pearson s Weekly.

steamer They knew just what to do,
and they did it instantly. Each held an
oar, and with strong pull together they
sent the boat out of the central current,
where there was immediate danger
from the heavy drift that followed close
on the first. SWELL The tide was swift
here. too, but they could look about
them.
They saw people clinging to logs and
boards and one pair of small hands that
were flung upward and grasped nothing.
The little hands disappeared, but a mo-
ment later came up again, and the boy
and girl were sweeping along above
them. Clarence bent over the side,
while Bess steadied the boat. 1t was a
little girl, and when she was dragged
into the boat she seemed lifeless. The
man in the other boat was busy too.
On they went with the flood, that
widened more and more with the valley
and became less swift. They picked up
woman, who was clinging to board,
gave a cry as he saw the little girl,
who was breathing now and returning
to consciousness. Other foaters drifted
in to shore and reached high ground.
They were more than a mile below
the village when they finally pulled to
the bank and tied the boat. The man
they had saved carried the little girl in
his arms and showered blessings on
them. Her mother and one other, a
child, were the only ones missing when
the flood had passed and the other vii
layers had returned to their ruined
homes. They were found that night, far
below As for Clarence and Bess, they
were heroes. There was a whole page
about the disaster in the papers next
day, with their pictures at the head.
They found their wheels where they
had left them and uninjured, though
they had been covered by the outer
edges of the food. They did not con-
tinue their journey that day, and as
they rode homeward through the spring
afternoon the girl said thoughtfully:
"Oh, Clarence, how fortunate that
your tire was punctured just there! We
might have been too far beyond to help
otherwise. -
She did not say, "How glad ! am
that we came the old Mills road, -
though she might have done so. But she
knew that Clarence was glad now too.

see. A quarter OF milo up the hollow
"a mass of logs, timbers and water was
bearing down on the little village, a
roaring. grinding wall of destruction.
A dozen people were running about
frantically, some making straight for
the high ground, others turning back
into their houses to save family or treas
ure. The girl looked only at the village.
The boys eye swept the little valley
from end to end. A hundred yards be-
low the village, where the narrow
stream widened, there were small land
ing and two rude skiffs.
"The boats The boatsp' he shouted.
They were descending the first slope
now and turned their wheels into the
little meadow that lay between them
and the landing. As they drew nearer
they could see that the oars were in one
of the boats and that man from the
village was running swiftly with an
other pair.
1.-THE water will spread some before
it gets here, . shouted Clarence, as they
sped along. "We must get to that other
boat and try to save somebody.
The distance was very short, but it
seemed long. The boy leaped from his
wheel while they were still on oompar-
atiyely high ground, and the girl fol-
lowed suit. Then they ran down the
slope and leaped into the big, clumsy
boat that contained the oars. 1t was
tied to a ring, and Clarence cut the
rope with his knife just as the advance
rush of water reached the village, and,
checked little by the houses, spread
and divided and poured on, carrying a
strange drift of life and property. A
moment later the boat was lifted and
borne upward by the flood.
The boy and girl were both skilled
oarsmen They lived near the sound and
had followed in the wake of many a

RIOTOUS STRIKERS.

Oshkosh, Wis, Aug. 5-Rioting has been resumed by the striking wood workers here on account of the sash and door men trying to run their plants with non-uniOn labor At the Morgan plant last night mob of LOGO strikers and sympathizers gathered to abuse and maltreat the non-union men as they left the mill The police succeeded in preserving order until darkness set in, when serious on- slaught on the police was made, in which several officers received bruises and cuts, and Chief Weisbrod was brought to- his knees by stone strik- ing him above the heart. Several shots were fired in the air and the po- lice finally withdrew. At 6 o'clock this morning the strikers again con- gregated and clubbed and stoned workmen trying to reach the Morgan plant. The police used their clubs freely and the street was finally cleared at the expense of many broken heads and a score of arrests was made, including nine women ring leaders. The non-union crew finally reached the mill under police protec- ton and the factory started up with a strong force of police to keep the streets clear around the plant. The strikers are far from subdued, how ever. and more trouble is promised.

MONROE DOCTRINE NOT DEAD. English Writers on American Affairs
 Misconception of It.

New York, Aug 5.-The London of the Tribune says:
 English writers on American affairs assume that the Monroe doctrine, on behalf of which President Cleveland issued challenge to England two years ago, has been abandoned or. compromised by the United States. An expression which is constantly heard in conversation and read in print is, "Monroeism is dead"
 The misconception arises from con- founding the Washington farewell ad- dress doctrine with the compliment of it in the Monroe doctrine. The Wash
 ington principle was that Americans
 must remain out of European alli- ances and entanglements. The Mon roe principle was that Europeans must keep their hands of the American |continent, retaining their possessions according to the status quo, but not enlarging their colonial holdings and Iconquests. The status quo is not re- jspected in a war waged in the deliv- erance of Cuba and Porto Rico from Spain, but the prime principle of the Monroe doctrine, that European powers are not to extend their domain
 and political sovereignty in the west ern hemisphere, will not be renounced
 nor compromised. The Monroe doe Urine will be strengthened rather than impaired by the expulsion of the Span lards from Cuba. Monroeism instead of being killed is vitalized and invigor- ated by the enlargement of American influence in the West Indies.
 What English writers in American affairs fail to perceive is the irrele-
 vancy of their own interpretation of
 the Monroe doctrine. The principle
 of hands off the American continent l is emphasized rather than minimized
 when Hawaii and the Spanish West
 Indies are brought directly under the influence of the United States If the European governments respected the
 Monroe doctrine from 1923 to 1898 and made no attempt-except on one occasion, in Mexico-to increase their holdings on that continent, while they were enlarging their possessions in I Asia, Africa and the South seas, they will be unlikely to reverse their pol icy when the American flag is raised | in Hawaii and the West Indies. If they were to do this they would speed l fly be convinced of the vitality of Mon-
 roeism.

THE CHINESE SITUATION.
An Open Conflict Between England
 and Russia Threatened.

London, Aug. 5-There is great un- easiness on all sides here in view of the Chinese situation, which is re- garded as bringing an open conflict between Great Britain and Russia within measurable distance, and it is universally felt that Marquis Sails bury's yielding to Russian aggressive ness is responsible for the dangerous complication. Russia's open opposi- tion to British commercial concessions must cease. A story is current that the Princess of Wales hurried depart ure from England in response to dis patch from her sister, the dowager empress of Russia, has bearing upon Anglo-Russian relations and great i'm portance is attached to the meeting oi the sisters at Copenhagen.

HARBOR OPEN.
vessels May Now Traverse All Chan-
 nelS at All AOurS.

New York, Aug. 5.-Although off cial declaration of the fact has not been made, all the channels in New York harbor are now open and ships may come in or go out at any hour Of the day or night without let or hin firance. The last of the mines in the harbor were taken up yesterday, the patrol boats were withdrawn, and the channel Iuoys and harbor lights will probably be lighted again this even- ing. The lighthouse board of this lighthouse district has reported to Washington that the submarine de- lenses have been removed, and it has recommended that the harbor lights be relighted If Washington ap- proves in time the harbor will be il- 1uminated this evening.
 It has taken a little more than two weeks to remove the mines. It has been found that only a few have been injured and these only slightly. Every one of the mines can be used again. The mines, junction boxes and all con- nections have been carefully stored away at Fort Hancock, Fort Hamilton. Fort Wadsworth and Willets Point ready to be planted again at two hours notice
 Captain John Bartlett, U. S. N., who succeeded Admiral Erbon as com mander of the mosquito fleet, and Lieutenant Jacob w. Miller, U. s. N., who succeeded Commander Field as commander of this lighthouse dis trict, went down the bay in a launch yesterday afternoon to make a last inspection of the patrol boats. These included the converted yachts Aileer, Fiifng, Free Lance and Restless. The co1nmSnder of each was ordered, after inspection, to proceed to tle foot of East Twenty y-eig6tnn~street anchor or tie up, and report to Lieutenant Mil Ter at his headquarters aboard the re- ceiving ship New Hampshire.
 All the bo1ts got to their new sta lions by o'clock last night It is ex- pected that these boats will be or dered soon to Cuban waters to make tighter the blockade around Havana It was stated yesterday by an officer of the navy, who has recently come from Washington, that the president has decided to carry on a little cam paign against Havana on his own hook. The secretary of the navy is fairly busy: the secretary of war has all te can do to look out for General Slafter and Santiago, and General Miles is quite taken up with receiving Porte Rico deputations bearing as surances of their delight at his com ing. So the president, this officer re- ports. has decided to undertake the operations against the Cuban capital. Whenever he can find an armed ves- sel, big or little, with nothing par ticular to do, he will just send it to Cuba to fill up gap in the cordon of ships around Havana His idea is to extend the blockade as far east and west of the city as possible In this way, and with the eastern end c: Cuba in our possession. the president has a notion that he may be able to starve out General Blanco and his army without interfering with anybody's plans except Blanco's
