The Job He Preferred.

Just after the fall of Bloemfontein
soldiers were called upon, owing to the
scarcity of civilians, to work the rail
way. The weary men were lying in
camp one night after a hard days
work, when a sergeant called out:
ANY of you men want to put your
names down as railway porters. driv-
ers, stokers, or for any other appoint
ment connected with the railwayT

Washington Fruit at Pan-American.

Buffalo, n. Y, Nov. Advantageous
fruit at the Pan-American exposition was
undoubtedly its most notable exhibit, and
it won recognition as the best in the
building. Eastern fruit men were decid-
edly startled to find their choice exhibits
discounted by fruit from the Pacific
coast, which is hardly known here as a
fruit growing section.
The biggest apple in the building-a
monster Bielingheimer weighing 20 ounces
and 10 IL inches in observation-disclosures
from Wenatchee, and the king ounce,
which weighed nearly % ounces, was from
Thurston county.
Washington also takes the palm for eff
fective advertising of its fruit. The car
load of apples shipped by the Spokane
chamber of commerce for free distribution
was coup, the effects of which will be
lasting and valuable. Without the ship
ment the exhibit attracted quite as much
general notice as any other and the lions
share of the attention of eastern fruit
dealers and growers looking for new
fields and opportunities.
The distributions of course attracted
large and clamorous crowds, but the fruit
is not wasted, being placed with every
endeavor to do the greatest possible good
for the state

Paris, Nov. 4.-The dispatch of Ad-

received a telegram from M. Bapst,

Constantinople, announcing that the
sultan had sent him a message accept

the Lorendo claim. The porte also

Loaded down with bundles, 1t was all
she could do to hold her umbrella over
her large hat and keep her skirt out Of
the mud, which insisted upon wrapping
against her ankles in a most uncom-
Portable manner.
The wind was blowing more wildly
every moment, and Marjory rallied all
her strength to cross the Masonic Tenn
pie corner. Biff went the wind, and
rip! snapl and Marjory's umbrella was
turned wrong side out and torn into
ribbons.
What was she to do? She had on her
best dress and hat, and If they were
ruined there was no telling how others
were to be obtained. The family ex-
chequer, as Marjory called her small
income, was slim. She was about to
make for the entrance to the building
and there consider the pros and cons of
her situation, when a mans large UNI
brella was thrust into her hand, appar-
emily from the wind itself. She looked
up just in time to see tall, well-dress-
ed man vanish around the corner Mar
jory knew at once that it was he who
had put the umbrella into her hand
how she did not know. OF course she
couldn't let herself take a stranger
shelter in that way, so she FASTENED af-
ter the retreating figure only to find
that he was nowhere In sight.
If Marjory had any decided trait II
was that she was philosophical. Her
benefactor was gone; there was no way
of getting him back. She was running
her hat and making a spectacle of her
self for the benefit of the passers-by.
So she hoisted the umbrella and went
on her way to the car, reaching the fiat
IN which she and her mother lived
without further adventure.
Mrs. McKants was much shocked at
her daughters escapade and wondered
what they could do about 1t. 1t would
never do not to return the umbrella.
The question was to find the owner.
Marjory had not seen her benefactor's

and there was little chance OF her
ever meeting him again. On examin-

TEACHERS TROUBLES
A TRYING OCCUPATION FOR WOMEN
WITH DELICATE NERVES.
The Hard Work Entailed by the Charge
ofa school Room OF en- Causes
the IA ealth to Break Down.
From the Tribune Minneapolis, MINI.

From the Tribune Minneapolis, MINI.
Teaching school is an occupation
which has many attractions for Gull
tured women, but it also has many
drawbacks and often affects their
health seriously. Especially is this
so in the case of women with delicate
nervous systems and those with a ten
dency to pulm onary troubles. Miss
Mary K. Powers, of Ellsworth, Wis,
is a teacher whose health was broken
down by the hard work which the
charge of large school entails. She
says:
During the winter of 1898, while
teaching school, | became subject to
nervousness, which grew worse until
my whole system was run down. My
back ached and at times l was so
dizzy that l could hardly stand. My
limbs were swollen and always tired,
so that / felt no more rested in the
morning than when l went to bed. /
was also troubled with a cough and the
food / ate did not strengthen me.
This condition, accompanied by pal
patton of the heart, kept up for sew
eral months until in March, when
read about DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People in Juneau, Wiscon-
sin, newspaper.

about a week | noticed change for
the better l felt so encouraged by
this improvement that l kept on TAX
ing them until had used three boxes,
and was entirely cured. l always
keep Pink Pills by me and l take
them occasionally when l feel the
need of a tonic.
81 believe firmly in the good done
by Pink Pills for Pale People and
have advised many of my friends to
use them.

To Ride for King Edward.

New York, Nov. 4.-According to the
Newmarket correspondent of the World,
little Danny Maher is now the premier
jockey of the world. He has been en-
gagged to ride the horses in charge of
Trainers T. Blackwell and Richard
Marsh at the combined salary of $35, 900
for the next season, the highest amount
ever paid any jockey in the world for a
years work in the saddle
Marsh trains for King Edward VII.
The engagement of Maher is regarded as
taetful way of expressing the kings
opinion that he is not prejudiced against
American riders.

but Marjory argued that the owner
would never consider his umbrella lost
in that sense. Mrs McKants persuad-
ed her to write a personal. but nothing
came Of it. and Marjory had to put the
umbrella away.
About month later Marjory receiv-
ed note from her Aunt Minerva. She
and Cousin Alice were returning from
the East, and would Marjory please
lunch with them at their hotel? They
could only be in the city one day, etc.
Marjory knew that stereotyped phrase
by heart. One sentence lent novelty
to the situation, but as she scorned
the strong sex she had half mind not
to accept the invitation.
1--WE shall not be alone, as your
Cousin Frank writes that his college
chum, John Wakem, is here, and he
wishes to call on us. AZ our train
leaves early in the afternoon, we must
manage to visit him at the same time.
l hope you will not stay away ON this
account"
SO they were afraid one of their line
friends would nonplus her. She would
go at all hazards.
1t was really a delightful little par
ty, and Marjory was conscious of en-
joying herself hugely. Why had she
never before had such good time with
her aunt and cousin? The friend was
not at all in the way. He told capital
stories.
John Wakem was the first to leave.
AS he was going out of the door Mar
jory looked at him with a start. She
had not forgotten the circumstances
under which she had seen that back
the same overcoat and hat. No. she
could not be mistaken. At last she was
sure of the owner of the umbrella. She
wanted to hasten after him; but she
could not make a scene before her
aunt. She wondered If he had recog
nized her. Yes, she was certain he
had. She remembered one or two queer
looks he had given her, as if compar
ing her with some one. How mortified
she felt! What predlcament!
If her aunt thought her somewhat
distract after her other guest left II
was not surprising. AS soon as posi-

A little over half a century ago 1t
was considered beneath the dignity of
many substantial concerns to adver-
tise beyond the insertion in the news
papers of an occasional business card
Some of the experiences of that time
show how recently advertising. as we
know it, has developed.
A retail hardware house In an East
arn city once found itself possessed Of
ten times the number of articles of a
certain kind that it had intended to
buy. AS they had been ordered espe
cially for a new hotel and were of Pc
culiar design, there seemed to be no
way of disposing of them except at a
merely nominal sum.
One of the younger men connected
with the concern offered to move
them" at a fair price provided he be
permitted to advertise. The sugges-
ton encountered much opposition, but
carry it out. The advertisement was
drafted in an attractive way. and the
people soon began to buy the new arti-
Gle. Finally the house was obliged to
send to the manufacturers for more.
When the next seasons trade opened,
the member of the firm who had most
opposed the experiment whispered to
the young man that he had better
write out few notices land put them
in the papers,"
From such beginnings the advertis-
ing practice has come. Thousands OF
dollars are now spent not only in adj
vertising itself, but in devising clever
catch words, ingenious phrases and H.
Illustrations which will stick in the
memory of the reader as well az new
general methods.-Youth's Companion

eve come to the conclusion that
in the holding of these views Czolgosz
was sane, because these opinions were
formed gradually under the influence of
anarchistic leaders and propagandists. In
Czolgosz they found a willing and intel
ligent tool, one who had the courage of
his convictions, regardless of personal
consequences. The more careful ques-
tioning failed to discover any hallucina-
tons of sight or hearing. He had receiv-
ed no special command; he did not be-
lieve he had been especially chosen to
do the deed. He always spoke of his mo-
tive for the crime as duty; he always re-
ferred to the anarchists belief that the
killing of rulers was a duty. He never
claimed the idea of killing the presi-
dent was original with him, but the meth
cd of accomplishing his purpose was his
and that he did it alone. His is not
case of paranoia, because he has not sys-
tematized decisions reverting to self, and
because he is in exceptionally good condi-
ton and has an unbroken record of good
health. His capacity for labor has al
ways been good and equal to his fellows
These facts all tend to prove that the
man had an unimpaired mind. He had
false beliefs, the result of false teaching
and not the result of disease. He is not
to be classed as a degenerate because we
do not find the stigmata to degeneration.
Physically he has not a history of cruelty
or of perverted tastes and habits. He
is the product of anarchy, sane and re-
sponsible"
