\ MONG the pieces Of furniture
~ in the subteranean bed chamber
~ where DR.. Leete had found me
sleeping was one of my strong
boxes Of iron cunningly locked which in
my time we're used for the storage of
money and valuables. The location of
this chamber so far underground, it's
solid stone construction and heavy doors,
had not only made it impervious to noise
but equally proof against thieves, and
it's very existence, beingmoreover, a se-
cret, Ihad thought that no place could
be safer for keeping the evidences of my
wealth.
Edith had been very curious about
the safe, which was the name we gave
to those strong boxes, and several times
when we we're visiting the vault had ex-
pressed lively desire to see what was
inside. 1 had proposed to open it for
her, but she had suggested that, as her
father and mother would be as much in
terested in the process as herself, it
would be best to postpone the treat till
all should be present
As we sat at breakfast the dav after
the experiences narrated in the previous
chapters, she asked why that morning
would not be good time to show the
inside of the safe, and everybody agreed
that there could be no better,
"What is in the safe?" asked Edith'e
mother.
"When last locked it in the year
1887" l replied, "there were in it SO.
curities and evidences of value of various
sorts representing something like a mil
lion dollars. When we open it this morn
ing We shall find, thanks to the great
Revolution, fine collection of waste
paper. X X
1t had been one hundred years since
I had locked the safe the last time, and
under ordinary circumstances that would
have been long enough for me to forget
the combination several times over, but
it was as fresh in my mind as if 1 had
devised it fortnight before, that being.

vening period so far as my conscious
life was concerned.
"You observe" said, "that turn
the dial until letter X comes opposite
the letter r. Then I move this other
dial till the number 80 comes opposite
the same point. Now the safe is practi-
cally unlocked. All have to do to open
It to turn this knob, which moves the
bolts, and then swing the door open, as
you see."
But they did not see just then, for the
knob would not turn, the lock remaining
fast. knew that l had made no mistake
about the combination. Some of the
tumblers in the lock had failed to fall.
As We talked, / had continued to work
the dial in the hope that the obstinate
tumbler might be coaxed to act, and
presently faint click rewarded my ef-
forts and l swung the door open.
"Dear me! what a ridiculous little box
It turns out to be for such pretentious
outsidel" exclaimed Edith's mother.

become a total wreck. The news, which
came by wire through Cooktown, and
was dated Samarai, August 5th, was as
follows: "Olive Branch total wreck on
Kwato Reef: no lives lost" The loss
will be a serious one to the society.lnot

MRS. NATION IN JAIL.
She Refused to Give a $4,000 Bond to
Keep the Peace and Was

Topeka, Kan, Feb. 19.-Mrs. Nation
is now in the county Jail as a result
of her trial on a peace warrant be-
fore Judge Hazen yesterday. The
warrant was sworn to by the Moeser
Cold Storage company, into whose
plant Mrs. Nation entered Sunday
morning. Mrs. Nation acted as her
own attorney in the trial. Judge
Hazen placed her under So, 900 bond
to keep the peace and ordered her to
appear before him at the next term
of court. Mrs. Nation refused to give
the bond and said she would go to
Jail. She is now detained in the hos
pital room of the county Jail, where
she will probably remain for some
time
Mrs. Nations friends have been adj
Vised that Judge Hazen will order her
release only on promise to send her to
her home at Medicine Lodge.
Judge Hazen last night placed Cal
Mcdonald, Mrs. Rose Crist and Miss
Madeline Southerd under peace bonds,
on complaints made by the Moesers.
McDonald's bond is 81 900, the others
are $500 each. The judge delivered
scathing address to the Nation lieu
tenants. He expressed the opinion
that Mrs. Nation is insane and said
those persons who encourage her
methods of reform ought to be
ashamed of themselves.

Mrs. Nation and Her Joint Smash
ing Cannot Be Stopped.
She Started Out at Six O'Clock Sunday
Morning in Topeka, Accompanied by
500 Men and Women, and
Put in Busy Day.

Topeka, Kan, Feb. 1S.-Yesterday
morning at six o'clock Mrs. Nation
sailed forth from the statehouse
grounds at the head of 500 men and
women, all armed with hatchets and
axes, and moved on the joints of the
city. The company marched silently
out of the statehouse grounds, down
Kansas avenue, to the fashionable bar
on East Seventh street, kept by Ed
Murphy. Four policemen stood at
the door to guard the entrance. They
commanded the people in very digni-
fed tones to stand back. Smash!
Smash! Smash!" called out Mrs.
Nation. Don't pay any attention to
them" Six Washburn college bows
with battering ram came forward,
and in less time than it takes to tell
it the big plate glass windows were
shattered into thousands of frag-
ments. Dozens of men then rushed on
the building with their axes and soon
had the doors and window frames cut
entirely away. Then with an exult-
ant cheer the crowd burst into the
building. praise God, women. Smash
the bottles and the windows" called
out Mrs. Nation again, and raising
her famous Ratchet she sent it
through a window glass that had yet
been left.
The policemen managed to recover
from their scare by this time and
grabbed Mrs. Nation. They started
off with her to the police station as
rapidly as possible. She waved her
arms and frantically called out to her
co-workers: ''Oh, keep it up. You
can do it without me. Praise God,
keep it up; keep on smashing. You
don't need me-
For a moment the crusaders were
thrown into confusion by the removal
of their leader, but the crowd surged
forward into the building, and soon
all the front part of the room had
given way, and all could enter at will.
case of beer was found in the room
and it was soon smashed. Slot ma
chimes, cigar cases, billiard tables,
chairs, counters and even the stoves
were smashed to smithereens. After
being satisfied that there was nothing
else to destroy the crusaders left the
building.
While this was going on the
doughty Mrs. Nation had been re-
1edSeu from Cne city prison as soon
as she was gotten there and she
again started out on her work and
led the way to a livery stable, where
some bars were stored. She was met
at the door by the proprietor, who
assured her that there was nothing
of the kind in the building, but she
found in a room back of the office the
fine bars that had been ordered for
the use of the jointists of the city and
never used. Picking up a leg of a
chair that was lying near by, she
Immediately smashed the mirrors and
otherwise injured the bars.
Mrs. Nation then led the way to the
cold storage plant, where the joint
lists of the city have been in the habit
of storing their extra stock Mrs. Ma
ton managed to enter the cold stor-
age plant, but Sheriff Cook and Chief
of Police Stah1 came upon the scene
and placed her under arrest. This
time she made quite scene and was
taken to tie county Jail in the patrol
wagon.

Washington Officials DepIore the Intended
Military Operations Against the Chi
nese by Count Won Waldersee.

Washington, Feb. 19.-The United
States government is facing a serious
crisis in China, owing to the announce
ment of the purpose of Field Marshal
Won Waldersee to begin another of
fensive campaign. This German move
ment is viewed with absolute dismay
here, for it is feared that it requires
an immediate decision by the United
States government upon it's whole line
of policy toward the Chinese question.
Gen. Chaffee will be told that he is
not to participate in this campaign
He has been keeping the American
forces in Pel1in ever since the city
was pacifed simply as a legation
guard, and the German governments
is fully aware that the United States
government purposely deprived the
American contingent in China of its
offensive military character, and with
drew it from the control of Count Won
Waldersee in order to hasten peace
negotiations and prevent, so far as it
could, the continuance of military
movements against the Chinese, which
were at once unnecessary and baneful
in their effect upon the peace move
ment.

Berlin, Feb. 19.-The Cologne Ga
zette publishes a dispatch from Pekin
which explains that Field Marshal
Count Won Waldersee's new expedi-
ton is intended to finally clear the

among the Chinese. The German com

A most astonishing state of affairs
exists among the present republican
officeholders of New Jersey. A ma
Jority of them, it appears, are in
politics for the glory of it, and many
of them ere said to turn over the
entire amount of their salaries as
officeholders to the treasury of the
party which electes them. Thus, for
instance, Col. Samuel d. Dickinson,
the republican leader of Hudson, and
assistant collector of the port of Jer-

airy of $4,000 year to the cause of
republicanism.
