The silhouette appears promptly at q

England's grand old woman grows in dis
tinctness and watches them. Outlined az

queens brow, nose, lips and chin appear

At about the time the senate and house

lost in the shadow, and the whole pillar
becomes dark.

a very unusual favor when he offered to
permit me to print some narratives Of
his pen. He told me that Houghton, Milf
fin & Co. had accepted the manuscript Of
his travels In Spain and showed me let
ter purporting to be to that effect. 1t was
written on the regular Houghton- Miff1in
letter head, and Of course supposed that
it was all right. He told me that the rea-
son he came to see about publishing the
manuscript in a series of articles was
that his publishers, Houghton, Miff1in &
Co.. thought 1t would make an excellent
advertisement for the prospective vol
ume.
I'm the same calm, slightly patronizing
manner, Mr.. Reid proceeded to inform me
that he had made long foreign tours as
regular special correspondent for the New
York Herald. He exhibited scrap book
containing articles from the paper and
from other papers. He also showed let
ter from Henry M. Stanley. There were
also letters from other noted European
individuals.
Gin short there was such an apparently
overwhelming array of distinguished
proof that Mr.. Reid was an experienced
traveller that it did not occur to me to
consume a long time in faithfully follow
ing up queries to the people referred to-
The material he offered seemed to be
written in a pleasing fashion, and we be-
gan printing it in sections. There was,
remember, considerable fault found
among our printers about this copy. Words
were complained of as being misspelt and
proper names were many times queried
about over our telephone.
QUEER TRAVELS IN SPAIN.
This struck me as rather peculiar
phase of affairs for material written out
by so thoroughly trained a continental
tourist as Mr. Reid claimed to be. Still,

AS TO WILLIAM REID.

Now. as to William jameson Reid, who,
according to an article in the Bicycling
World, Boston, some time since, pub
lished, "has received the honor of fell
lowship in the Royal Geographical So
ciety for the valuable information he has
obtained for that body"
In June, 1858, William Jameson Reid, a
dignifed, brown-eyed rather scholarly
and handsome boy, graduated from the
Dorchester high school. 1t will be re-
membered that 1t was in the summer Of
1898, that he claims, in his recent book,
ia have been at Pekin, after making q.
tourney of 5000 miles through the heart
of Central Asia" About the time of his
graduation Reid was doing some random
work in reporting bits Of Dorchester
news and local. items for the weekly
paper of the suburb, the Dorchester Bea-
con. He was soon floating around News
paper Row, Boston, and dtsposing of a
news story to this or that paper or news
bureau. In 1894 he went over to London
to meet his parents. He returned In
short time, and on various occasions
during 1854, at the time he claims to
have been in the wilds of Western China,
was seen about Boston and the news
paper offices after the fashion Of any of
the daily newspaper men.
AS to Reid metnods Oh making an dp-
proach when he was about to place liter
airy material, the following will serve as
an example:

Of the Boston Home Journal, that we
began to run a series of articles by Will
liam Jameson Reid. There came into our
office one afternoon a stately appearing
fellow, elegantly, but not loudly dressed,
who gave me to understand that he de-
sired to arrange for the publication of a
series Of articles on his travels in Spain.
He was quiet and dignifed and had an
air Of condescension, an air Of bestowina

complaints from old subscribers and read
ers. This mistake and that and the other
mistake We're pointed out and some read
ers insisted that the author of these
sketches certainly had never been in
SPAIN The articles were summarily dis
continued.
Some time afterward Reid came in
and wanted an item published concerning
a dinner which he said had been given
him few evenings previous at the Hotel
Brunswick. 1 took the; notice and on go
ing over it found foreign notables having
strings of titles attached to their names,
indicating membership In scientific bodies.
The dinner was supposed to be given to
Mr.. Reid as a farewell, he being about
to embark on a long and perilous explor-
ing expedition. sent an attache Of the
office over to the Brunswick, and was
amazed to learn that no such dinner had
been given and no such dignitaries had

toned book The only Samuel R. Phillips

Those familiar with publishing and lit
erary interests say that the exploits OF
this youth as a literary adventurer are of
the most remarkable known, Since his
manipulations have been accomplished
while he is a very young man. Bogus
magazine articles and bogus books have
been published, but this is believed to
be the first time an American under
thirty years of age has achieved the sue

EXPERT BUTCHER.
One Essential the Ability to Cut Off
the Right Weight.


New York Sun.
1t is his business, of course, and
he becomes expert at 1T, as man
might in any work, but the GUS
toner who pays any attention to it at
all is sure to be interested nevertheless
in the accuracy with which the butcher
cuts off just the required amount Of
meat. Whether it is two pounds Of steak,
or four pounds of chops, or six pounds of
corned beef it's all the same to him. He
cuts without long dwelling upon where to
set the knives. He slices away short Of
casual like and plies the saw, and lays
the meat on the scales and 1t does not
vary more than quarter or half pound
from the weight required, on even the
heaviest pieces, and on the lighter pieces
he comes within an ounce or two, or hits
it right on the nail.
A man, for instance, goes into a butcher
shop and asks for three and half or
four pounds of, say, corned beef. The
butcher gets piece out of the pickle, lays
it on block, and picks up knife and,
without the slightest hesitation, with one
strong, smooth sweep, cuts off piece,
which he lays on the scales. 1t weighs
three pounds and three-quarters; 1t is In
weight exactly midway between the limits
set.
The expert butcher gets his ability to
do this naturally enough, from good
Judgment to start with backed up by long
experience; but when he cuts things as
close as this, even the customer familiar
with his skill looks upon him as wizard

.ESTEE FOR FEDERAL JUDGE
EMINENT CALIFORNIAN COMINO
HERE.
President Names Him for 5udgc Of the
United states Courts I'm Hawaii
Something Of His Career.

WASHINGTON. June 1.-The Presi-
dent has nominated Morris NJ. Estee TO
be United States District Judge for the
Territory of Hawaii.
Morris NJ. Estee was born in Free
hold, Warren county, Pa, on November
10, 1874 His father, Ansel Estee. ma
tive OF Buffalo, n. Y, was well TO do
farmer of the time-honored eastern
type. There were nine children of his
family, and Morris was the eldest. His
ambitions were beyond the limits of his
fathers farm, and after spending two
years at the Waterford Academy OF
Erie county he resolved to strike out
alone i'm quest Of fortune. At the age
of twenty he came to California and
at once went to the El Dorado county
gold mines, where he spent two years.
While a miner he was still a student,
and he soon learned that the way to
success lay through the channel of his
intellect, rather than that of his mus
cles. He then took up the study Of
law, and after some experience in diff
ferent law schools. he was admitted to
practice in 1859. He open an office at
Sacramento In 1863 he was elected to
the lower house of the State Legisla
ture, and his work during that session
was recognized by the people of Sacra-
mento by his election to the office of
district attorney, which he held until
1866.
In 1868 Estee came to San Francisco.
In 1871 he made himself felt politically
by his fight for Booth for governor.
After the latter's nomination he was
made secretary of the State Republican
Central Committee. in which position
his ability as an organizer was appar-
ent in a remarkable degree. He was
sent to the assembly again in 1875, and
was made speaker of the House. At
the conclusion of the session he resum-
the practice of his profession. In 1880
he was selected as one of the fifteen
freeholders to frame a new city charter
for San Francisco. He was chosen by
the Republican convention as a candi-
date for governor in 1882, but was de-
feated by Stoneman. Again in 1894 he
received the same honor. but was de-
feated by Budd. In 1888 he was chair
man of the California delegation to the
Republican National Convention at
Chicago.

Greedy this morning received package
of Filipino documents recently captured
by the signal service in Luzon, and
among other printed matter were sew
eral copies of a recent proclamation
by Aguinaldo, which was printed in

1--WE still have hopes in the justice OF
the good Americans, and the signs now
point to the probability of their giving
us justice and that they will carry out
the lessons taught them by the foun-
ders of the republic of the United
States Although these people who are
fighting us are our enemies, they are
men of principle, and we have valiant
ally in that illustrious North American,
Mr.. Atkinson, who is our chief cham
pion against criminal aggression. We
should be grateful for having man
like him to champion us. We will close
by informing the imperialists that they
