BACK ACTION PHILOSOPHY.

When l muse or Pierpont Morgan,
And his trust,
! reflect that, after all, he's
Made of dust
And we'll turn to dust again.
Which Is natural. but then
should like to lie PieTp. Morgan
With his dust.
When think of Albert Edward
With his throne,
To comment upon his worries
l am prone;
And l cite the restless bed
And uneasy royal head.
But I'D like TO lose some slumber
On throne.
1t Is easy. very easy,
To observe
How ones philo sophie notions
Strike q curve.
Gold and glory are not all,
But we listen for their call.
To decline such things we haven't
Got the nerve.

cd All her passengers had been transfer

continued their trip to New York
Tho Trcmonts injury is due to Il collision
in the Sound at midnight last night with
the steam yacht wild Duck. Captain VII
cox of the fremont says the night was
perfectly clear and the steamer was pro-
coeding on her usual course when about -
miles west of Cornheld Light, schooner
rugged steam yacht was made out on tho
DOW. The officers of the fremont suppos-
ed that the yacht would pass astern of
their vessel as her course seemed to be on
line diagonal to that of the fremont. No
danger was thought of until the yacht had
approached to within quarter of a mile
when she was hailed from the fremont
ana no answer was received. When too
late the fremont attempted to change her
course to avoid the impending collision.
The sharp prov of the yacht struck her
about 80 feet back of the Iort bow and
she sheered diasonally across coming out
on the starboard side
The force Of the impact was sufficient
To throw passengers from their hunks

SERIES OF VIOLENT
ASSAULTS IN PUEBLO

Pueblo, Colo. Oct. 6.-tDenver News
Special l.)-Conclusive evidence Is at
hand that at least two of the assaults
out of three assaults and holdup
committed on Pueblo women last
night were the work of the same man
and the officers are of the opinion that
the whole series of crimes on girls and
women is the work of single man.
A .44-caliber Colts revolver taken
from the home of Mrs. James p. Hen
derson, who was assaulted at her resi-
dence. 1102 Arroyo avenue. last even
ing, was found this morning at the
home of Mr.. Hamilton. No. Block j..
At 2:30 this morning the police We're
notified by the neighbors of the Hamil-
ton family that II white man with a
handkerchief tied round his face for
mask had forced his way into the
house. deliberately raising a window.
After ransacking bureau and secur-
ing n diamond ring and some other
property the ruffian jumped upon the
bed of one of the daughters of the
family and was choking her when her
feeble outcries aroused the household
frightening the man away. In max
ing his escape however, the villain left
n heavy club and the revolver taken
from the Henderson house.
WITHIN very rev minutes OF tnls
report came another to police head
quarters stating that a man answer
ing the description of the assailant of
Mrs. Henderson. the burglar at the
Hamilton house and the man who
held up Mrs. Margaret Blair on North
ern avenue early in the evening, had
committed criminal assault upon
Mrs. J. NJ. Lackey. the wife of n steel
worker living at 1926 Pine street.
In addition to the finding of the
Henderson revolver at the Hamilton
house is the further evidence leading
the police to believe that one man has
been committing all the crimes which
began four weeks ago. is that the de-
vice of n telegram to get clutches on Il
woman was used anly Thursday night
at the home of w. j. Mills. 5o5 Grand
avenue, where an attempt was made
to assault Mr.. Mills fourteen-year-old
daughter. This man carried under his
arm n sugar sack such rs was used by
the assailant of the little daughter of
Clay Holmes. In this case the child
was carried from her bed in the house
where her parents We're sleeping. to
the back porch, where the most brutal
assault of the series was committed

Chicago. Oct. G.-The RecOrd-Herald
this morning prints the following from
Walter Weilman, its Washington cor
respondent:
"The United States and Great Brit
ain have reached en agreement con-
cerning the Isthmian canal question.
and the new treaty will be presented to
the Senate for its ratification early i'll
the coming session.
Mr. Wellman says: II am now able
to give the substance of this treaty.
1t provides:
"First-For abrogation of the old
Clayton Bulwer treaty in toto.
''Second-For neutral 1sthmian ca
nal. in case one be constructed by the
United States. open in time of peace
to the ships of all nations upon equal
terms.
"Third-This neutrality is guaran-
teed by the United States alone and
other maritime powers are not invited
to participate in such guarantee. Great
Britain IL inferentially one of the
guarantors, because she is IL party to
this treaty.
"Fourth-In case of war, the United
States reserves the right to take such
steps for its own protection as 1t may
deem proper.
ut will be seen that the new treaty
meets the principal objections which
were offered to the old Hay-Pnunce-
fote convention and which led to its
rejection by the Senate. While the
principle of neutrality is asserted. the
United States alone guarantees that
neutrality, and no European powers
are invited to give their assent to 1t.
ut was this feature, more than any
other. which led to the defeat of the
former treaty. Many senators We're
willing to join with Great Britain in

A sensational elopement after the
fashion set by the Princess Chimay
has occurred at Balaton Fuered, a
summer resort in the Carpathians.
Among the visitors were Prince Ivan
Semonoffski. described as a descend
ant of the former kings of Lithuania,
with his two sons and a daughter, aged
10. Their Highnesses were in the hab-
1t of visiting n garden restaurant,
where Magyar gypsy orchestra
played. One evening Princess Olga
Semonoffski eloped with one of these
musicians. an ugly, repulsive man, 40
years of age. Prince Semonoffski and
his two sons gave chase, but did not
overtake the fugitives till next even
ing. They administered chastisement
to the man, which he is likely to re-
member for his life and gave the prin-
cess a loaded revolver, telling her she
had dishonored their name She COM
mitted suicide Immediately, and was
buried without much ceremony in the
remote village where she was overtak-
en- with her gypsy lover.
While number of workmeif were
executing repairs at the Palais du Lux
embourg they discovered a number of
valuable paintings concealed behind a
tapestry. The quaestor of the senate
had them examined. and it was found
that they are portraits of the three
first presidents OF the old Parliament
of Paris and of De Thou, the famous
Judge who lived century and half
ago. 1t is thought that these portraits
were placed behind the tapestry during
the Revolution in order to preserve
them, and that they have remained
there ever since.

SUGAR TRUST WILL WAGE WAR
ON BEET SUGAR ASSOCIATION

full sphere in making refined sugar in
stead of raw sugar to be refined by the
trust. Independent beet sugar pro-
ducers have always made and sold re-
fined beet sugar. 1t would be putting
ones head in the lions jaw with
vengeance for the beet factories to
equip themselves only for the making
of raw sugars at prices to be fixed by
the trust Besides it is an economical
blunder to perform in two operations
what can be done as well in one.
1.-THE movements on the part of the
sugar trust in selling its refined sugar
far below the cost to it of the raw
material. and in the special market
which is now reached to some extent
by the beet sugar producers, cannot
but call down on the head of the trust
the condemnation not only of the beet
sugar producers, but also of all fair
minded people in the country, and hay
ing done this they have placed them
selves in an exceedingly poor position
to go before Congress and ask for the
perpetuation of their power as rein
ers; although they have recently ar
ranged to increase their capital stock
to the extent of $15,OOO.OOO to rivet
their control of the raw cane product.
I'm view of this act on the part of
the sugar trust. the United States
Congress can i'll afford to inaugurate
the policy of reducing the present rate
of duty by reciprocity or in any other
way which would have the certain eff :
feet of enrichng the trust on one
hand and on the other the killing of
the most promising industry in the ag-
ricultural business of America"
