Sayings of the Author of "DaVid
Harum."


OF a mother Edward Noyes Westcott
said: "she has a baby, a most persua-
sive one. which permeates and eolors her
conversation so that she sees all things
through a baby darkly"
At one time he wrote: Il have come to
think that the thing most desire 1 shall
never have, so now, with superstitious
dread, 1 try to create fate by refrainins
from setting my heart on anything, lest
it escape me-"
Again he writes: IT I were ten years
younger" that phrase was almost haDit-

secondhand Marriages.


Marrying at second hand IS a curious
custom which has lately come to light In
that part Of South London called Lam
beth. 1t appears that the youth Of that
district believe that by "assisting" at a
legitimate wedding ceremony, with the
intent that they shall themselves be mar
ried-by silently following the responses
and exchanging vows-they become united
as legally and economically as the parties
ioinlng hands before the clergyman. This
idea came TO light on account or some
little difficulty in connection with a bap-
tismal ceremony, where objection was

ARE MAKING A HARD FIGHT
SHEEP MEN OF UTAH WANT Or
DER REPEALED.
Utah Men In Denver Trying to Get
Permission to Craze FIocks On
Reservations.
Especial to The Herald.)

Denver. June 29.-The sheepmen of
Utah are making hard fight to have
the order repealed restraining them from
grazing their fiocks on government reser-
vations. Senator Arthur Brown of Salt
Lake and Jesse NJ. Smith of Layton
Utah. are at the Brown on a. mission of
PROSECUTING. They are endeaVoring to
make friends for the shepherds Of that
state, so that when the time comes to
make decisive move toward changing
the obnoxious order they will have plenty
of friends behind them. Today they
called on President Springer of the Ma
tional Live Stock association and got
from him a letter to the secretary OF the
interior advising a modification of the
order. Ia a day or two the delegates viii

ter directly before the department.

The cattiemen and finally we withdrew our

opened and then il viii be strife and war

gun, and. following the rule laid down
by Aguinaldo, fired their town before

No shots of resistance were sent from
Guagua, and here the cruise of the
boats ended. MacArthur's infantry and
artillery division was known to be at
San Fernando, four miles further up
the river, but it was deemed unwise
TO attempt navigation beyond this
point. The marines landed and ex
plored the burning town. Natives be-
gan to return in groups of twos and
threes, bearing the white flag. Pres
emily the governor of the Pampanga
province discovered himself and asked
aid in putting out the fire in his resi-
dence. In return for the aid the SOL
diers gave him, he gave the information
that he had always been a stauach
supporter of the American side of the
war problem, and had loudly demanded
in congress that there be no fight. Two
Spanish prisoners, a captain and his
orderly, who had been left behind when
the insurgents departed, asked for
transportation TO Manila, which was
granted. They said that they had been
held at Guagua for eleven months. The
same request was made by the inmates
of mestizo convent. These were con-
WINGED by Major Grant that they would
not be harmed by staring.
AS dusk drew on the two gunboats
dropped down the river to its mouth
and anchored for the night, returning
to Manila the next morning. San Fer
nando is but short distance from Qua
qua, and it will be quite possible to
transport supplies to the troops by
means of the Pasig until the railroad
bridges between Calumpit and San Fer
nando have been repaired.
