and small wonder when they must run
to the third floor to ASK the mistress IL
she desires earnestly to buy a paper
of pins from the blind man at the
door They must fly back to the base
ment to see if the ashman is at the
coal window. They must sweep and
dust, and go slowly because of those
poor red clumsy fingers. They must
wash windows and run the risk of
breaking their neoks by hanging like
a bat from the easement outside.
And these things and others, the
multitude of which no man can num-
ber they do day after day We tempt
them by the display of luxuries they
never knew. We leave money and
jewels and treasures about under their
gaze unbarred by bolt or key, We en-
trust them with the little children.
We leave in their care our lives nightly
from the peril of fire or the deadly
fumes of gas, Seldom, oh, SO seldom
do they ever betray the trust; seldom
do they ever take the value of a shill-
ing that is not their own, earned by
their rough hands. Thus 1t is they

big FEE FOR APHYSICIAN
DR.. Mccormack to Get $40. 600 for
Prolonging Goebeis Life.
His Scientific Efforts Made II Possi-
Realize His Ambition to become
Goyernor-CInim Filed by One of
the Brothers Out of Gratitude.

LOUISVILLE, Ky, Sept. Arthur Goe-
bel, brother of the dead Governor, and his
devisee under the will. has placed a claim
against the estate of William Goebel for
$4,000 for DR.. McCormacks services. and
behind this action lies an interesting story.
Mr.. Goebels great ambition was 10 be Gov
ernor of Kentucky. He had that Office con-
stantly in his mind, and when he finally
| obtained the nomination he entered upon
the memorable canvass of last fall which
resulted in his assassination.
He and DIR. Mccormack had loag been
close friends, and when Goebei was shot
DR.. Mccormack, who happened to be in
Frankfort at the time, was one of the
first physicians to come to his assistance.
The wound was mortal one, but realizing
Goebel's ambition and knowing that If life
could be prolonged few days the Legs
lature would decide the contest and Gcabel
would probably be declared elected Gov
ernor, DR.. Mccormack took every step
known to science to preserve life.
Salt solution to replenish the blood lost
by hemorrhage was injected promptly and
DR.. Mccormack and the other physicians
present worked like Trojans TO prolong the
patients life, although they realized that
the wounded man must die as the result
of the shot. When Arthur Goebel arrived
he requested DR.. Mccormack to remain in
Frankfort with his brother and not return
to his practice in Bowling Green. The
doctor willingly consented to do so, and
until Goebel died he worked with him
day and night.
The surgeons who were summoned to
Frankfort from louisville and Cincinnatl
were surprised THAI the wounded man had
survived an hour after he was shot, and
expressed the opinion that but for the
prompt injection of the salt solution and
the other measures taken in the fight with
death, Goebel would have expired in
short time after the ball entered his body.
After the death of Goebel, Arthur Goebel
and Justus Goebel, the surviving brothers,
expressed their appreciation to DR.. Nc
Cormack for his services, and requested
him to send in bill against the estate for
his services.
This the doctor declined to do, on the
ground that Governor Goebel. during his
life, had done him many kindnesses, end
he felt it was privilege to devote hia
services TO him. As a mark of apprecia-
ton Arthur Goebel has placed the $4,000
claim against the Goebel estate in favor
Of DR.. Mccormack. and it is understood
that the check for that amount will soon
be sent him, as the settlement of the es-
tate has been entered upon within the last
few days.

A HOSPITAL FOR PLANTS.
Novel Institution to De Started in
baltimore.

BALTIMORE, Sept. IA plant hospital
for the treatment of dropping weak or
sickly house plants is the newest thing
for Baltimore. John Dom has originated
the idea, which he will begin today to put
into effect. The sanatorium will be sit
uated on the lot bounded by Preston Street,
Central Avenue, Hartford Avenue. and Bid
die Street, which Mr.. Dom has secured
He Will erect thereon hothouses and con-
servatories and provide his open-air earth
beds for the treatment and care of plants
sent to him. He hopes to have his sana-
torium ready for occupancy at an early
date.
Mr.. Dom is an old student OF plant and
floral life. Years ago he was florist
leaving that business to take charge OF the
plants and flowers in the spacious con-
servatories and yard at Bolton, the beau
tiful home of W. W. Spence. which was re-
Gently purchased as a site for the new
Fifth Regiment Armory. While attending
to his duties at Bolton Mr.. Dom made a
careful study of plant and floral life, and
mis- success with plants and flowers under
his charge led TO his consultation by visit
ors of Mr.. Spence as to the treatment of
dropping or dying plants at their hores.
When Bolton was sold Mr. Dom con-
ceived the idea that a plant sanatorium
where valuable house plants could be treat
ed or stored and cared for during the clos
ing OF city homes in the summer months
was needed. He therefore, two months
ago. bought the material in the conserva-
tories at Bolton to erect his own sanato-
rum, for which he has since made arrange
ments.
In speaking of his plans last night he
said: Il have never seen a plant sana-
torium and know of the existence of none.
but / believe that it is as much needed as
a sanatorium for human beings or for ami
mails. The study of plant life, when prop
erly undertaken. is OF great interest. Each
plant has an individuality 1t becomes TO
the student living, breathing thing At
mospheric and climatic conditions affect il
as they do human beings, and 1t demands
as constant and watchful care as child TO
insure its growth to full and vigorous ma
turity. Few persons stop to think of these
things, even though they admire and pos
sess rare and delicate plants
"A stufy room in which air space Is
lacking, a sick chamber. insufficient hy-
drogen, an oversupply of oxygen or nitro
injurious effect on house plants the same
as they will have on children.
''In summer many residents of the city
leave their homes for Europe or for water
ing places. They cannot take their val
liable plants with them and they are afraid
10 leave them in charge of servants They
could be properly cared for in a sanatorium.
A love OF plants and a knowledge of their
care and treatment has induced me 10 en-
bark upon venture which / know Is novel
but which ] believe will be successful"

Lott Carey Convention VIII Come t
nm End Tonight.


ALEXANDRIA, Va, Sept. 1.-The Lott
Carey Baptist Missionary Convention
which has been in session during the week
will finish its work tonight. The next ses-
sion will be held in Philadelphia, Pa.
DR.. c. S. Brown presided at the session
the journal the Rev. DR.. >. n. Vass, D. D.,
OF Raleigh, N. c., representative of the
American Baptist Publication Society, was
introduced and delivered an address telling
of the work of the society among the ne
groes for the past twenty-five or thirty
years. showing that it had done much to
develop the negro and place him where he
is today in this country. He said that the
American white man was friend to the
negro, and he should appreciate his
friendship.
Rev Dr. II. G. Robinson was the next
speaker, and he discussed the race problem
at length, showing that the negro was a
Jonah in America and that he was not
wanted in many parts of the country. He
thought that too much time and money
were spent by the United States in ned
ding with foreign affairs, when it could
not protect its citizens at home. The ne
gro is being burned at the stake, hanged.
and shot TO death, and nothing is being
done by our National Government to pro-
tect them. Let us clean up at home and
then go abroad" he said.
The Rev. DR.. Spiller of Hampton, Va,
said that he could see all over this coun-
try an effort to crowd the negro out of
politics by both parties. He thought that
it was the duty of the negro to divide his
vote and be felt in both parties and that
would make him a power in the body poll
itic. Il am not politician" he said, but
/ want to say that / believe in this
grea: campaign and we must get on both
sides in order to be on the right side l
cannot say that | am in love with the
present Administration, yet it is the best
We have, and if it was not for the money
part of it, | don't know what l would do
l am willing to vote for the party that
will furnish protection to my people, tina
party that will stop lynching of negroes in
this country and let them be tried and eX-
ecuted by law. l think that our President
needs a little more backbone. and then
we would be in a better condition. Let
US try to build up ourselves, and IL we arc
to be crowded out of politics, which il
looks as If We are going to be, then let
US be prepared for it,
In the afternoon the women met and or
ganized convention to do missionary
work and lift up the women. by making
better homes and training the children
Mrs. A. E. James OF Pittsburg. was elect
ed president. and Miss NJ. C. Webb, was

Of James Murray, wealthy st. Louis
building contractor, were arrested by Ev-
anston police yesterday on the statutory
charge The second charge was preferred
against Dennis for abandoning his wife and
four children, who live in st. Louis. Both

The arrest is the outcome of the infatua-
ton of Dennis for Mrs. Murray, which had

The families were neighbors, and Mrs
Murray, who was 4 member of the First
Baptist Church, of which her brother was
pastor, taught the Dennis children at Sun
day school. Through Dennis children the
acquaintance of Dennis and Mrs. Murray
was formed. which soon became infatua-

An Increase of Twenty-Five Per Cent
Expected This Year.
TONS RIVER, n. J., Sept. Former
Sheriff Charles L. Holman, Of this village,
who. with his sons, is among the largest
growers of cranberries in this State, and
probably the largest individual buyer ard
shipper, has made up his forecast of the
crop of 1900 with correspondents in the
Cape Cod region and in Wisconsin. He es-
Inmates a drop of 25 per cent from last
years yield in Cape Cod falling off of
10000 bushels. In Wisconsin the loss es-
timated on last years crop will be an even
larger greater percentage, probably 80 or
So. In New Jersey, on the other hand, it
is expected that there will be at least %
per cent more than last year.
The total crop last year was 1.120. 900
bushels. or this Cape Cod furnished
75GOO0; New Jersey, 250.0O0, and Wis
eonsin, 10000 bushels. This years yield
is divided as follows: Cape Cod, 100000:
New jersey, 100000, and Wisconsin, 90,-
600.
While South Jersey was the p.onesr
in the cranberry industry, and for many
years was the leader in the production Of
the berry, it Is nov surpassed by Cape

markets, while the Jersey berries are
largely shipped west Of the Mississippi,
TO Denver aRd Ssu Francisco. This
leaves the middle West for the Wiscon-

Western market because they are frmer
and will last longer and bear transporta-
tion better than the quicker ripening and
