that gallant officer rendered the man
who conducted his case signed blank
check
Mr.. Rayner said: II feel that 1
should not be asked to say anything on
this question, but the newspapers have
treated me so splendidly that cannot
lind the heart to deny fact that you
have established 20 we'll. The admiral
is such generous, noble soul that he
would have sacrificed his last cent for
these who repre- sented him in the
case"
The present sent Mr.. Rayner by Adj
mira! Schley is heavy open-faced
tlmepiece Of solid gold. The chain is
very heavy one of finest gold. At it's
end is a solid gold pencil. The present
to Mrs Rayner is a magnificent heart,

QUEEN DRAGA'S PASSION.
King Treats Her Brutality and She
Attempt Suicide.


Attempt Suicide.
Paris, Nov. 26.-The Matin publishes
a sensational story explaining the ru-
mors that an attempt had been made to
assassirate Queen Draga of Servia.
The newspaper states that a diplomat
at the Servian court is it's authority.
Since he was disappointed in his hope
for an heir, the story goes, the king
has treated his wife brutally. After
swe airing at her and reproaching her
in the presence of several persons, the
queen retorted and the king slapped
her twice. Her majesty rushed to her
chamber and instantly took poison.
When the drug began to work she ran
out of the room, shrieking 'Save mel"
Her cries were perfectly audible to
every servant in the palace and their
gossip started the rumor of an at
tempted assassination. The court ply.
stefan, with stomach pump and pow
erful antidotes, succeeded in saving the
queens life.
