BY EDGAR wELToN COOLEY.

Author 1.-THE Life in Her Veins"
downright, 1901. by Daily Story Pub. Co }
This is a story of a man who had
talent and a woman who had hope.
His nam was-but what matters 1t?
TO those who met him most frequent
v he was known as the Silent Man.
he lived in a rear DON on the third
hoor of a tenement house, and kept
The wolf and the landlady at arms
distance by writing for the press.
She was known as Old Simpsons
tomboy, for the reason that in her
younger days, when she wore short
skirts n was rather negligent in
matters of toilet, there wasn't a boy
On the block who could outrun her,
Or scale a six-foot fence in less time
than she could.
Old Simpson, her father, was the
cobbler, who pegged away on other
peoples shoes in the basement of the
tenement, and allowed his daughter
to wear shoes that were out at the
heel and toe.
The Silent Man was silent because
he was lonely. For years he had been
lonely. until, one day. out of he gloom
and the dreariness, with a smile on her
face and a song on her lips, h came
to him and laid her hand in his.
OF evenings, after that. they were
wont to walk, arm in arm, down to
the brink of the river and listen to
across the water, the silver line 1raced
by the moon, which she always spoke
Of as the path of glory leading out
into the afterwhiles.
She, alone of all the world, knew of
the goodness of the Silent Man; but
that was only because she underrtood
him better than did any one else. She
believed In his greatness and called
him her genius.
II the Silent Man had ever met Sue
cess, it must have been in the dark
ness. for Success had passed him by
unnoticed. So, whenever she rested
her hands On his shoulders and smiled
up into his eyes, where the shadows Of
disappointment and despair constantly
fingered, and said: Courage, dear,
courage. Some day you will be famous
n the world will know you and love
you as l do" he would stroke her hair
and smile sadly. calling her his angel
with the dreamy eyes Of hope.
For some day." she would CON
tinue, you will write a story through
which the warm blood of your heart
will go pulsing and its throbbing will
catch the ear of the great. busy world.
and it will pause to listen and will say,
this is the work of a genius"
So 1t was that the Silent Man, en-
couraged by the smiles of the dreamy
eyes of hope. which he saw In his
dreams, put all his energy into the
work of his pen, and after while the
critics really did say some kind things
about him.
She was delighted at this, but he,
who looked at matters from the prac-
teal view point of dollars and cents.
could but realize that their marriage
was yet afar off. AS for her, she lost
none of her cheerfulness in the
shadows that continually enveloped
the Silent Man, but lived on, burning
.he oil of hope to light her footsteps
down the pathway of the passing
years.

startled by a novel from the pen of
an unknown writer. Critics We'd with

in large pieces when he was picked
up. He will die. The others will

ton of a provisional programme. The

II, in Mechanics building.

New Ulm review., 1901-03-13

Russia's declaration regarding Man
churia, as delivered to Sir Charles
Stewart Scott, British ambassador at
st. Petersburg, by Count Lamsdorf,
and asking the United States if it
was prepared to take joint action of
such a decisive nature that Russia
would have no alternative but to re-
cede from her position. Almost 81
multaneously the United States gov
ernment instructed the various am
bassadors to take similar steps.
The answer of Secretary Hay has
apparently not yet been received in
London, although the fact that al
most concurrent instructions were
issued from Washington is taken
here to be a sufficient guarantee that
Russia's action in Manchuria will not
be tolerated by the United States.
Japan is relied upon to take line
in harmony with the United States
and Great Britain. Germany, in spite
of the Anglo-German compact, is re-
garded as rather doubtful, owing to
Emperor Williams friendship for the
czar. France, of course, will side
with her ally.
To Bring Powers Into Line.
The significance of the present
phase can only be appreciated by
those cognizant of the lethargic at
titude of the British government
hitherto regarding Russian action in
China. Within the last few days all
this has changed. What a week or
two ago was pronounced only in line
with Russia's usual policy is now
termed ''a grave and serious state
of affairs" Lord Lansdowne is using
every effort to bring the powers into
line, in order to present to Russia
such menacing front that, without
any ambiguity regarding temporary
or other occupation, she may give up
all designs upon Manchuria.
What prompts the British foreign
office to take such an alarmist view
of circumstances usually looked upon
as fatalistic sequences is the appre-
hension that Russia, having held her
own in spite of the protest of the
ministers of the powers to the Chi
nese government, and having put her
self on record in the reply to Sir
Charles Scott as determined on at
least a temporary occupation of Man
churia, will refuse to back down.
That she must do so Lord Lansdowne
considers vital, both for the future of
China and for the continued existence
of the concert of powers.

Post Notices Continuing Present

SEEK TO FoREs1ALL A CONFERENCE.
President Mitchell, of the United Mine
Workers Union, Says the Offer OF
the Operators Is Not Sufficient
Goes to Hazleton to Direct Miners
Interests.

Indianapolis, Ind, March 11.-John
Mitchell. president of the United Mine
Workers, was told of the Lehigh Coal
companys notice at Hazleton Satur-
day morning. He said:
THAT'S a new move on the part of
the operators. The Lehigh company
is one of the largest in the district,
and the action means that all the
operators will post like notices. It
means, too, that they do not intend to
meet the United Mine Workers in con-
ference next Tuesday,"
'sWould a continuation of the ten
per cent. advance by all the operators
be satisfactory to the miners?"
''It would not.''
President Mitchell left for the an
thracite field Saturday night. After
Tuesday morning his headquarters
will be at Hazleton.
The Notice In Question
Hazletony Pa. March 1.-THE fol-
lowing notice was posted Saturday at
all the Lehigh Valley Coal company's
colliers in the Hazleton region:
"The ten per cent. advance in wages and
other concessions made by this company
on November l, 1900, as per notice posted.
will be continued to April l, 1902. Local
differences will be adjusted with our en-
ployes at the respective collieries''
The notice is signed by w. A. La
throp, general superintendent of the
Lehigh Valley Coal company.
In view of this notice it is not be-
lieved that the Lehigh Valley Coal
company will be represented at the
joint conference which is to be held
here next week, as the adjustment of
local differences would be practically
the only contention between the min
ers and operators, and these have
been provided for in the posted no
tice.
The Lehigh & Wilkesbarre Coal
company, the Delaware & Hudson
Coal company, in the Lackawanna
and Wyoming valleys, the Philadelphia
& Reading Coal & Iron company, at
Pottsville, and other companies have
all posted similar notices.
A Concession.
Altoona, Pa, March 1.-THE btu
minous coal operators Saturday noti-
fed the miners, who are in conveD-
ton here, that they would withdraw
their demand for reduction of five
cents in the price of pick mining The
miners held a secret session to ar
range a compromise proposition with
a view of bringing about a speedy set
tlement.

Declaes Crisis Has Arisen.

London, March IA crisis has
arisen in far eastern affairs which
in the opinion of the British govern
ment is graver almost than the trou-
bles which originally turned the eyes
of the world toward the orient. In
this crisis secret negotiations are
going on between the United States
and Great Britain with view to
thwarting what both governments
consider determined attempt on
the part of Russia to plant herself
permanently in one of the richest
tracts of the Chinese empire.
The conference held Wednesday be-
tween United States Ambassador
Choate and Lord Lansdowne, the for
eign secretary, had nothing to do
with the Nicaraguan canal affair. To
quote from British official, ssthe
Nicaragua controversy is minor
matter compared with the present
situation What Eiir. Choate did was
to receive from Lord Lansdowne az,

Receipts, 9O0-CattIe Steady
but Only Light Supply.

The Wichita hog market yesterday was
generally strong. It was at all times
strong on desirable weights and grades,
and steady on lights and mixed stuff.
The supply was light for a long time after
the opening, but though it was at the
close too small for the demand yet for
double that Of Monday Of last week, but
was nevertheless q disappointment to
the several buyers, who were early in
the field for hogs, even willing to take
the lights and undesirable hogs. The
wagon trade was very good. the best in
several days. There were ten cars
which went over the scales and htuogh
there were hopes OF more arriving later
that was all that materialized. The re-
Ceipts ran into light hogs too much and
there we're more Of this grade received
than are wanted. Good Fat butcher hogs
are the strong call now and shippers in
tie country buying should remember this
There has been Tor some time a steady
line of light hogs, under-fed and imma-
ture, and though these have been taken
by the buyers, the price is shaded and
they cannot sell as wei as hogs from
- to 80 pounds. There were only one
or two loads yesterday which showed up
q fair TO good quality, the balance being
thin light stock. Everything was closed
early, and twice the number received
would have sold as easily. Tt is hoped
that the rest Of this week win End renew
