DEFENDANTS BEFORE EsTEE.
Two Pleas of Guilty and Two Pleas in
Abatement.

The defendants accused by the fede-
raj grand jury of adultery and fornica-
ton were all before United States
Judge Estee again this morning, to
plead. Pleas of guilty We're entered in
two cases, represented by Attorney
Frank Thompson. Sentences will be
passed on Monday.
In behalf of other defendants two
pleas in bar were made, by Chilling
worth and Creighton. 1t was pleaded
that as the territorial courts took juris-
diction of the offense and had already
fined some of the defendants for the
act with which they now stand charg-
ed before Estee, the federal court
should dismiss the charges. Several OF
the defendants have paid fines in the
police court for the very offense with
which the federal jury charged them.
In the adultery cases Judge Estee
overruled the plea. He took the mat
ter under consideration in the other
cases.

| then one day his friend asked him to find
| him out among the machinery across the
| Seine; an experiment was being tried.
Louise had not received any details, she
! only knew that Joseph, at unawares, had
been caught by some part of the machin-
cry and had nearly been killed. He had
| been taken to the hospital and, as she
| told Chariot, had been ever since at his
friends lodgings in the Rue st. Antoine.
Il shall go there direct, She told her
self, land IL Joseph is not well enough to
come away i will get lodging where We
can be together. 1t will be joy unspeak-
able to have my boy once more all to my

Her eyes fell on the tall grey cross; she
saw someone move there: in minute she
recognized the girl who had yesterday
walked beside Chariot to la Clarte.
1t seemed to Louise that the girl had
been kneeling on the steps of the cross.

with slow footsteps. as though she were
weary. Louise saw that she had we'll

The girl started at the voice; her lips
parted widely as she stared at the thin
brown face and saw the likeness OF Jo-

Yes, madame, IL come from Paris.
Louise looked ghastIy. The sad, unwill-

with horrible fear; she felt sure some
thing had hanpened to IoseDh
She steadied herself against the gate,
the ground felt moving underfoot.

She spoke calmly, spite of the fear that
shook her from head to foot.
Yes. l bring news, madame. Your son

write and tell me?" The mothers tone
was indignant, and yet she was not an

messenger, But the girl fancied she had
brought undeserved blame on Joseph.

GREAT ORGAN coMp1ErED.
A Wonder of Mechanical Construs
tiOl and Musical Perfection.

The magnificent s15.50o organ for the
memorial chapel at Stanford University
| is being temporarily set up in Mechanics
Pavilion. 1t Is to be used for the Inter
national Epworth League Convention in
the latter part of July. then for series
of great public recitals and then for the
Episcopal convention in October. In No
vember 1t win be permanently placed in
the Stanford Chapel, which will be COM
pleted by that time.
The organ is a wonder in mechanical
construction and musical perfection 1t
took thirty experts five months to build
it. It is a product of California for a
California university 1t was manufac
tlred in Los Angeles. The organ is made
principally of white sugar pine. which
has been carefully selected. then time
dried for a long while. then kiln-dried for
several weeks in temperature of 200 de
grees, and then stacked in the open air
for several months. This wood is all dou-
BILE coated with shellac inside and out
The visible front of the enormous music
box is of quarter-sawed white oak, an
tique finish. The ninety-six front pipes
are af pure block tin polished until they
look like FURNISHED silver.
Altogether there are nearly 800 pipes
or reeuS- Iney range IN size from tiny
tin whistles Il half inch long and the
thickness of a lead pencil to great wooden
horse-tr1uSh affairs sixteen feet long and
large enough for man to crawl through.
Yet all these wonderfully. exact tone-pro-
ducers are nicely regulated by electrical
appliances raElifying from the key desk.
at which the player sits and has the
whole mighty INSTRUMENT respond to his
lightest touch There are thirty miles of
electric wires in this remarkable harmony
producer. There are two bellows, each
as big as a small bedroom. and they are
blown by a tnree-and-a-haf horsepower
electric motor. II took two Of the largest
freight cars to bring the organ here.
1t will take ten experts four weeks TO
srect the Intricate and delicate mechan-
ism. 1t was all set up In the factory two
weeks ago and tried with three organ re-
citals They proved its exquisite tone and
easy manipulation. In the Pavilion the
keyboard is to be on the main fioor fully
$50 feet from the organ, and connected by
electric cables containing S95 wires. Be
tween the player and the organ are to be
seated on an inclined platform chorus
of 1900 voices.--San Francisco Chronicle.

Pardon me; you look tired, my girl
Come in and rest. You can tell me abou,
my boy"
She led the way toward the cottage
but Toni drew back. As she had gone
SO far she felt she must tell ALL She
could not try to deceive Joseph's mother.
II must tell you something. madame.
They-my brother and Joseph--did not bid
me seek you; was to stay at la Clarte;
then l heard that you were going to seek
your son, 1 came, madame. lest you
shoIiHi miss him.
The words were terked out. the sudden
anger in Nine. Lenet's face frightened
the girl.
1t was indeed a wave Of violent anger
that was passing over Louise: she hated
the ofiicious hussy." as she mentally
termed Toni.
You mean that-that there Is. some-
thing between y6u and my son: am sure
OF It; tell me quickly"
Toni had growS white: she thought Jo-
sephss mother would. never forgive. Why
had she listened to that lame. stranger.
instead OF obeying Joseph? She glanced
up in deep despair; she saw terrible an
guish IN those dark eyes, and they were
so like Joseph's.
All at once the. girl stepped forward.
sank ON her knees and flung her arms
round Nine. Lenet-
Dear. good madame" she cried. 'have
mercy on me, and pardon my indiscre-
ton: the lame man said you were about
to take the Journey. and Il seemed my du-
ty to prevent this. Put madame. Joseph
has said, I wilf5tell my mother myself.
and then she wifi receive you as my
promised wife
There was silence. Louise pulled her
self away. and went Indoors; she did not
even bid her rise from her knees: not un-
der Teinette's eyes could she fight out
that fierce battle with herself; rage and
anguish tore at her heart, and kept her
dumb. She had lost all that now made
her life. she rad lost Joseph. With closed
eyes. her face deadly pale, she leaned
against the huge wardrobe.
At last sound disturbed her. She lis
tened. A deep sob, then another. came
from the. girl outside; then she heard
footsteps; after that the click of the gate.
Louise reused herself from her despair.
What had her jealousy done? What right
had she to prevent Joseph from choosing
wife for himself. This girl had trusted
to her generosity. while Joseph, she felt,
feared her Jealousy. But she had no time
to think: she opened the lattice and saw
the girl hurrying along the road.
Toni, child.'' she cried out.
The girl heard. She stopped; then came
back to the gate.
did you call, madame sob broke
her voice.
"why do you cry child?' the mothers
voice had softened- . 5-sl -
"Eh, mon fDieu! How then can l help
crying I have brought strife between you
and Joseph. your Joseph, who loves you
better than ell the world.s
No answer came. Presently the gate
latch again clicked. Louise ran out and
clasped her arms around the sobbing girl.
God bless you, child You will be my
daughter. / viii love you. Toni. as love
my boy. How can help it? You and he
will be truly one.'-Katharine 8. Mac

bravery Of a Mnman

One day during the war eleven seces-
sionists made their way into private
house and killed the chickens, turned the
carpets INTO blankets, and made them
seive- perfectly at home. The lady of the
house, whose husband had Joined the
Federal army and left her In charge Of the
nome which was situated between the
two armies, was not at all pleased at these
proeeedlngs, and resolved to pot an end
90 them.
First OF al, she took their muskets to
the back Of the house, reserving two for
herself. Then she went to the room
where the men were earousing, and
called out; "Yoa are my prisoners?"
One, who attempted to attack her, she
shot down without further parley. Then,
taking the remaining musket, she
ordered the ether ten heroes to walk
before Der 10 the camp OF the Federals,
threatening TO kin the first one who tried

Many women spoil their health by
cramping and crushing their poor, unfor-
tunate feet into shoes too small for
them. This Is really a most idiotic thing
to do. as it not only causes the most In
tense pain. often ruins the gait entirely,
but frequently brings about, if not really
serious injury to the foot, at any rate
such painful, unpleasant and uncomfort-
able results as corns, bunions and other
pedal disfgurements. says the Jackson
vile Times Union and Citizen.
A woman who persists in wearing
shoes too small for her cannot long re-
main in good health. for she learns to
dread exercise because Of the pain and
difficulty involved shoe that Is either
too short or too narrow Is such an instru-
ment of torture that one would think no
really sensible woman would ever have
recourse to- it, but every shoemaker
knows that not few fashionable women
habitually undergo this self imposed pen
ance, and. though they are invariably
wrinkled and aged before their time and
panied. anxious and even disagreeable
expression becomes permanently fixed on
their once pleasant features, they still
persist in thinking the game worth the
candle and that the possession of "a
pretty little foot" atones for all the pain,
discomfort and misery which are their
constant portion.
squeezed In foot. however. can gen.
orally be detected and, as a rule, is any
thing but a thing of beauty. The whole
shape is often altered until the foot is
almost deformed at length into the Chi
nese variety.

Self consciousness is often barrier to
popularity in social life. and it is a
malady from which some girls suffer-
Not every one can be gra ceful aud easy
but one can be self confident without be-
ing self assertiye, serene and dignified
without being dull. Morbid fears as to
what others are thinking and overanx-
iety as to ones appearance may be over
come. Little nervous mann ersms lack
Of repose, consciousness of ones clothes
are all bad form and to be avoided, says
The Delineator. One of the most care
fully dSsssed as well as attractive women
ever met had been required in her gi4I-
hood by her mother to attend scrupulous-
ly to every detail of her toilet and then to
think no more about it after leaving her
room. No touches to hair and drawing
on of gloves We're permitted after she had
left her bedroom If these apparently
trifing matters had been neglected, she
was obliged to return to her room to at
tend to them For this early training,
which seemed irksome at the time, she
never ceased to be thankful when she
grew older. She acquired extreme neat
ness in her personal appearance ard an
entire freedom from any fussy conscious
ness about it.
No one can make a good impression
or talk agreeably il half absorbed in
putting on gloves, claspinS bangle or
a pin or arranging stray locks of hair.
1t is mark of good breeding to be
neatly dressed in every detail and never
to appear conscious of ones clothes.
Sometimes one sees girl in street car
drawing on gloves or adj usting veil.
Even at the opera one freq u entity sees an
occupant of a box buttoning gloves, rear
ranging jewel on a bodice or touching
the ornaments in the hair These self
conscious manners in public are bad form
and detract from a woman'S charm.
