king Edwnrd,s DonhIe.

An amusing incident occurred dur
ing the Easter holidays at Boulogne.
The editor of London weekly-a gen
tleman who bears striking resem-
blance to King Edward-was enjoying
his cigar in one of the principal cafes
in the town, when he suddenly became
aware that his presence was causing
unwonted interest and no little com
motion. Presently an old gentleman
rose up and shouted: "Vive lie Roi de
TAngleterre!" sentinAent which was
heartily joined in by most of the peo-
pie in the cafe. The conductor of the
orchestra, not to be behind hand, i'm
mediately struck up, God Save the
King" but this was too much for the
journalist, who made bolt for the
door, and made good his escape.

NO PLACE YET FOR EVANS
Will Not Resign Until He Has Been
Otherwise Provided For.

Washington, June l8.-Pension
Commissioner Evans has determined
not to resign unless requested to do so
by the president, which is not consid-
cred likely. The commissioner is
man Of means and is independent of
political office, so far as the emolu.
ments thereof are concerned. AS the
president is not likely to ask him to
tender his resignation, it follows that
he will hold his Office until the presi-
dent is in position to offer him a
place that shall appear in a nature of
a promotion and be otherwise accept
able to Mr.. Evans. The latter de-
clines to retreat in response to the at
tacks that have been made upon him,
yet at the same time he realizes that it
will be agreeable to the president to
have his place to dispose of to some-
one more acceptable to the old soldier
element and is ready toretire any time
that it suits the president to transfer
him to position which he can accept
with dignity. 1t is we'll understood
that Judge Peters is in the president s
mind as Mr.. Evans successor, and it
is expected that he will be appointed
as soon as it appears that Mr.. Evans
is suitably provided for.

TRAMP'S ESCAPE.
Most Remarkable Thing That Has
Occurred In an Engineers Twen-
~ Years Experience.

John Smith, a well-known Illinois
Central passenger engineer, relates
remarkable story about man whom
he found asleep on the ties of rail
road track a few nights ago.
Mr.. Smith was bringing into Chi
cago the Fish special, occupied by Pres
ident Stuyvesant Fish and other Off
cials of the road, returning from gem
eral inspection of the line, when, about
a mile north of Ashkum, he saw dim
ly outlined some unknown object, ap-
parently sitting on the rails. The
engineer supposed it was a man, and
at once applied the emergency brake,
says the Chicago Tribune.
The engine had nearly passed the
object when it stopped. Descending
from the cab, Mr.. Smith found man
soundly sleeping. He was sitting
with his back to the rails, and so close
TO them that his head would have
struck the oil caps of the engine had he
arisen.
The noise made by the approaching
locomotive had not awakened the man,
and he was not aware of his danger
until the engineer grasped his shoul-
der and roughly shook him.
Let me alone. Tain't time TO get
up" he protested, drowsily.
Had the man raised his head an inch
when the engine approached he would
have been killed.
1t was the most remarkable thing
that has occurred during the en-.
gineer's 25 years experience.
Engineer Smith the next night ran
over and killed an unknown colored
man at Chebanse, the second station
from Ashkum. The colored man ac.
cidentally stepped in front Of the 10.

DEAF MUTES AT THE PLAY.
More of the Unfortunntes Than Usual
at the Thcnter During the
Past ScusOn.

zone curious phase of the theatric-
al business of the past season has
been the number of deaf mutes in the
audiences said the head usher of
New York thcater. For several
years a good many deaf mutes have
been attending performances of pam
dramas, spectacular plays and high
ly spiced melodramas, but this year
they seem to have declared them
selves in favor of high art, and have
patronized dramas that are short on
action, but long on talk. Deaf mutes
generally attend the theater in a
party. We have had them come to
our house in winter in squads of 20
or 80. Mute auditors OF a play al
ways buy good seats. Being deprived
of enjoyment through one of their
senses, they have to make up for the
loss by catering TO the sense Of sight
and they choose seats that give q
clear view of the stage. Another
thing noticeable about them is the
enthusiasm with which they applaud.
"At first blush il might seem strange
to see so many of the deaf and dumb
flocking to the theater, but they are
really but little worse of than the av-
erage American who goes to see play
in foreign tongue. The American
hears, but as he is unable to under.
stand two words of the dialogue he
has to depend upon his eyes for his
knowledge of the action, so in that re.
Spect he and the mutes are quits"

HER DYING STATEMENTS
Clara Castles Last Words Will Re
Used In the Trial.

Eldorado, Kansas, June lS.-The
states case against Jessie Morrison
has been made stronger at this trial
by the introduction as evidence of
faded and wrinkled pieces of paper
upon which Clara Wiley Castle wrote
in trembling lines and by the dying
statement she statement she signed.
AS her windpipe was severed she could
communicate only by writing, by mods
aud by motions of her bandaged arms.
The writing of the dying woman was
introduced for two purposes, some of
them showing that she did not expect
to live, others corroboratingth the dying
statement, which is to be introduced
and was written out by Austin Brum-
back, brother of the former county
attorney. This morning Judge Aik-
man admitted as evidence sheets of
paper upon which were the uncertain
lead pencil lines of the mortally
wounded bride, showing that she did
not expect to live. One of these was
the following note: 81 cannot be with
you much longer by the Lords will. "
She wrote another fragmentary note
designating those whom she wished to
have sing at her funeral. At that time
she wrote many notes OF farewell to
her young friends in Eldorado. They
we're messages OF affection and many
of them religious exhoration. Clara
| Wiley Castle was tn leader in the
choir of the Methodist church and was
devout Christian. just before mid
night on the night Of July 5, the dying
girl wrote note for Chester Sheldon,
one OF the young men OF Eldorado.
The note was introduced in court.
1t was this: "Of course l am going to
my reward. will be to my home by
morning. Tell him to make a man OF
himself. Chester, l ask you to meet
me in Heaven. Clara Castle"
1t was not thought necessary to
present the writings of Mrs. Oliu
Castle at the first trial. They have
been collected since.

mother of the girl who was killed
Mrs. 7. o. Castle, mother of Olir
Castle, and Chester Sheldon we're put

circumstances of the writing Of these
notes. There was a great deal o
cross examination, so the testimony
dragged along slowly.

Earnings and the Strike.

In order to earn ' per cent on the preferred stock of the steel trust, that corporation must earn in a year S35,- vJ0, 0,000, and in order to earn per cent upon it's commoh stock it must earn 320 0,25O, 900 more a year. The total needed for dividend purposes is $55,- 800 0,00O. Dividends have already been declared at these rates. A great proportion of the capitalization is "wa. ter" That is however another ques- ton. The trust now proposes to earn and pay dividends regardless of that feature of the case.
 The preferred stock is selling at about 92, which was the ruling price before the strike occurred, and the common stock remains firm at about 42.. In other words, "the street thinks the strike will be readily stamped out and earnings will not be seriously impaired. Either this con cIusion is to be drawn from current quotations. or else it is true that a great fund has been raised for the purpose of holding the quotations oi steel stocks up. Such a fund can dc a great deal while hope remains, but when hope no longer exists no fund,

Special Rates for II ohengrin.

Grand opera is not a necessity. This town has never had surfeit of it. and the coming of 'Lohengrin" with Sembaclx and Schumann-He in the cast is not an ordinary everyday event. But still it is not necessity thai people must have independent of circumstances.
 It is therefore to the interest of the railroads to grant special rates on the day in question, for thereby they will induce many people to travel who would not otherwise make journey to Birmingham.
 Birmingham only of Alabama towns is to enjoy Lohengrin, and the rail roads can by reasonable concessions extend this opportunity to all parts of the State. It is. not only to be a night of grand opera, but it is to be a night of Wagner music. Nashville is not to have Lohengrin, nor is Atlanta or Memphis, so far as statements have been printed. Those who desire to hear Lohengrin with cast never excelled in this country must come to this town, and in order to enable the greater number of music-loving people to come the railroads should for their own good grant special rates.
The age-herald., 1901-08-26

not even one of s2OO. 100000, can hold the capitalization up 10 present quota tions. Large investors would begin to unload, and the street would hear of such efforts. Thus far such inves- tors have not lost confidence In the efforts of the management to put down the strike.
 When, however, the prices of the trust stocks begin to go down, then the world will know that it is fighting stubborn and doubtful, if not los ing, battle. There Is no better ba- rometer. because dividends cannot be maintained unless earnings are heavy, and earnings cannot be heavy if mills remain closeo.
