wider acquaintance throughout the State

who not only finds his way about the

travels annually all about the State. He
makes friends wherever he goes, and it is
the event OF the year in some interior
towns when he makes his appearance, and
wonder at the ease with which he travels
never ceases. He is to start in a few days
to sell the Maine Scenic Magazine. Mr..
Morris has given him the agency through
out he State, and it will add to the well
come that is always given him that he
brings so excellent a work with him.
Mr.. Ryan is a thoroughly reliable man, and
is entirely worthy OF the patronage and

brigham Young, DR., Says His People
VIII Come Back.


KANSAS CITY, Mo-, July 1o.-Brig-
ham Young, Jr., while in Independ-
ence Thursday, made the rather start
ling statement that the time was near
at hand when all the believers in the
Mormon religion will gather there to
live. lie referred to Independence as
the 'central stake in Rion." He made
this statement in the presence of
many Latter Day Saints with whom
he visited. He also said that a great
temple is to be erected in Indcpcnd-
cnce Oh the temple lot.
The Mormons We're driven out OF
jackson county in 1888. In his pre-.
diction that the Mormons will return
to independence, Young claims to
have been led to the belief by a rev.
citation. He says the Morlnons will
return in peace to Independence ard
that they will be welcome. During
the recent great conference in Salt
lake of Mormons, Young said, the
sentiment expressed hat the Nor
mons would return to Independence
met with great favor and enthusiasm.
He says he prays daily for the trans
fer to come to pass.
Mr.. Young told friends in indie
%pendence that his church had 2, 900
missionaries over the world seeking
for converts to the faith.

"A fine rebuke of f1unkeyism was adj
ministered the other day at a German
railway station. A servant in livery
a~pplied4for the reservation OF a COM
partment on the next train for two la
dies OF rank and title. When the train
arrived, 1t was found that all the COM
partments were filled save one, in
which just quiet, plalnly-dressed
lady was seated. The station-master,
obsequious to the liveried servant and
his evidently distinguished mistresses.
attempted to make her give up her
seat, SO that the two ladies could have
the compartment to themselves. The
lady naturally objected. especially as
there was no other seat for her on that
train. .Isee no reason why the ladies
should not sit here with me-" she said.
Il cannot give up my place" The sta
tion-master, excited and angry, insist
ed. The two ladies, hearing the angry
tones. came to the door of the COM
partment, and after inquiring as to the
cause Of the excitement. exclaimed,
"Why, there Is room In there for half
q dozen people!" and without more
ado. to the station-master's confusion,
got into the compartment with the
other passenger. They were the two
sisters Of the German emperor!

DREYFUS MAY NOT @ FREE.
A Light Sentence Would Propitiate
the Army.
FORECAST OF THE VERDICT
One Of the Trial Judgos, 1t Is Rs-
ported. Says ii Evidence Might
"Indiscretlons."

PARIS, July lO.-A member OF the
court martial that will try Drevfus is
reported to have said he doubts the
returning of a verdict of not guilty.
He said he had studied the evidence
carefully and hardly knew what to
think; that there was much evidence
against the prisoner and a great deal
tending to prove his innocence.
Personally he said he was of the
opinion that the court would find
Dreyfus guilty of indiscretions and
suspicious actions while on the general
staff, and that the sentence would be
a short term in prison. The sentence,
he said, woule be a sort of propitition
for the feelings of the army.
Colonel Juannot, president of the
court martial, will not preside, rs he
will be named a general on the 18th
of July, and a general cannot be pres
ident of a court martial. The price
Nine. Dreyfus paid Nine. GODDARD for
the use of her villa is said to be 81, 600,

cations being $40 a day. People con-

\ Wal Street Broker Held the PresI.
dents Brothers Stock. Too Long.
New York, July lO.-Abner Mckin-
ley, the Presidents brother, has
threatened to bring suit against a
Wall street broker for 81, 600, which
the Presidents brother says it cost
him to speculate in Cleveland, Lorain
& Wheeling stocks. Half the amount,
according to his claim, represents the
check Mr.: Mckinley gave to the broker.
The other half represents the profits
he expected to make. The stock rose
after the purchase and was not sold.
1t fell afterward and was sold.
De Rynter Hollins, the broker. said:
MIR. Mckinley gave me positive in
structions to sell when he had two
points profit, and not otherwise unless
he personally ordered. The stock ad-
vanced slightly and a telephone mes
sage came to sell Mr.. McKinlev's
stock, but the message did not come
direct from him and we learned that
he was out of the city, SO nothing was
done.
Upon ais return the stock had
gone down several points. causing a
loss amounting to $3.50. Now he de-
mands his money back, with an addi-
sum az profit"

LONDON. July 10.-A number of the
American. co'onial and continental
guests of the International Congress
Of Women having expressed a desire
to pay their respects to the queen,
Lady Aberdeen arranged a trip to
Windsor yesterday afternoon, when
her majesty assentcd to the suggestion
that she should drive slowly through
the quadrangle of the castle and re-
crive a few Of the more prominent
Delegates.
1t was about So, when the dele
gates took up a position in front of
the private entr ance a quarter of
an hour later her majesty appeared,
and Lady Aberdeen made the presen-
tationS. Miss Susan b. Anthony, who,
with Mrs.. May Wright Sewall, the
newly elected president of the con-
gress, enjoyed the privilege OF presen-
tation, said:
Il had never seen the queen before
and could not but feel a thrill when
looking into her wonderful face. l
saw her, as her life is going ont, well
coming this womcn's movement which
is the precursor of the twentieth CEN
fury. What pleased me most was
when her majesty said:
"'Now l cannot have these ladies
who are visiting me return without
giving them a cup of tea
Sir Arthur Bigg. the queens pri-
vate secretary, replied: But, your
majesty, they are here in hund1 eds
81 do not care said the queen, If
they are there in thousands, they must
all have 4 cup of tea when they come
to see me-
And we had it in the queens pal
ace as a recognition of the great wo-
manhood of our country"
Mrs. Sewnll said: The queen looked
ten years younger than when l saw
her three years ago. The whole bear
ing OF her majesty was a symbol that
She. who has governed the mightiest
OF empires for sixty-three years, has
finally recognized intuitively, that
she crowns her work in recognizing
the claims OF her sex to equal rights
with men,"

In a recent address on vaccination
an English lady physician related
some curious stories illustrating the
prevalence of smallpox in England Just
before Jenner's time. In advertise
ments for servants 1t was commonly
stipulated that they must be of the
Church of England and have had the
smallpox" The police, in advertising
for the apprehension of a counterfeit
'er, gave as one of the marks of iden-
tifcation that the fugitive had "no
pock-holes." In a letter from a lady to
her, son urging him to find a husband
for his young daughter, the solicitous
grandmother wrote that she was not
in favor of early marriages as a rule,
but this was an exceptional case, for
Angelina has not had the smallpox,
and at any moment the chance OF her
getting settled in life might be en-
tirely lost. Therefore, it is better to
get her married at once"
