Kingston, ia, Nov. 21.-It has been
ascertained that a fortnight ago the
Colombia government was negotiating
with the Pacific Navigation Co. for the
purchase of one of its coast steamers
fer war purposes. In consequence OF

pared TO start in pursuit of Aguinaldo
with 100 picked natives supported by
American troops. Other eX-rebel Fill.

Aguinaldo, it is supposed, is in

sources.
Aglipay, a renegade native long an
insurgent leader in northern LuZon,
has written to friends in Manila, ask

to be informed whether a decision has
been reached concerning the relations
between church and state and the dis

Miss Lucinda's
| Loot Brooch

Every Thanksgiving day brought the
Pettibones together under the old home
roof. 1t was the great day of the year
for them, and nothing could bring keen
er disappointment to young or old than
to be prevented from celebrating it un-
der the old time honored custom, which
they had been brought up to regard
quite as much in the light of duty as a
pleasure.
.aunt Cindy, busy over the concoction
OF the ''punkin' pies for which she
was famous throughout all Lilbury
land the region roundabout" was
thinking Of dead and gone Thanksgiv-
ings. AS sac beat a bowl of eggs into
golden froth her thoughts went back to
that Thanksgiving day ten years ago
when a shadow fell upon her life-a
shadow that had never lifted. True, but
few eyes saw it nowadays, but it was
in her heart yet, and all the sunshine
of her quiet, peaceful life could not dis
pei it.
Il wonder what has become of him?"
she said to herself as she sifted sugar
crystals into the foaming mass. Per
haps he's dead. Who knows? Ten
years is long time, and great many
things may happen in them"
If tear or two fell into the bowl l
do not think the pies were any the
worse for them. Perhaps they gave
them better flavor

Grant had been her lover long ago.
Everybody had said cit was going to
be match between them, and in this
case everybody" had good reasons for
thinking so, for, though no formal en-
gagement had ever existed between
them, there had been tacit under
standing of the heart which ii is never
necessary to put into words TO make
ones meaning and intention plain. But
on that Thanksgiving day ten years
ago there had arisen some misunder-
standing which had parted them. Just
what it was about Lucinda could not
tell now as she thought about it. 1--WE
were both so foolish. so unreasonable"
she had often told herself. ITO think
of letting two lives be parted by some
thing so insignificant that neither fully
understood what il wasp'
Dear mew exclaimed Martha Petit

dropped into a comfortable rocking
chair in one corner of the kitchen.
Pm glad we've got about done with
our work, amt you. Lucinda? I'm al
lus real glad to have 'em come here,
but one gets SO nigh beat out with
cookin an fussin that I'm allus glad
that it don't happen more'n once q
year.
"Why. Cindy," suddenly, where is
your breastpin? | thought you had it
on! You don't look nat'ral without it,"
Lucinda put her hand to her collar.
The brooch she always wore was gone.

A veterinary Surgeon Of Battle Creek

timely words of advice, he says:
Il was standing in Amberg g. MUIR

After he had made his purchase said
quietly to him: You have made a
mistake in buying those His reply
was: How is that?' / said Doan's
Kidney Pills are worth all the others

sons for thinking so / told him that
my kidneys had bothered me for years,

til L could scarcely stand it, that L
had nearly every symptom to be found
where the kidneys are affected, that L
had used remedy after remedy, includ-
ing box after box of the one he Just
purchased, and that until / used Doan's
Kidney Pills / might have taken as
many spoonfuls of water; in fact, I
think some of them hurt me. A cou-
pie of weeks after this met him on
the street, when he said: Doc, Doan's
Kidney Pills are just as you represents

tional Bank of Newport, KY, was in
stituted Tuesday by Receiver Tucker
IL was in the nature of a blanket at
tachment on all the property of Frank
III. Brown and Is to cover $4,000 of

attached at once The attachment gar.
nishees whatever of Browns funds

a patent bicycle lamp. Other suits are
expected to follow. No action will be
taken against Paris G. Brown as bond

ton of their tangible property.
