 to Suit Present Needs.

From the London Mall.
 The fine old sherries which the British court used to drink with delight in the days of our grandfathers, but which have lain dormant in their crusted bottles in the cellars of the royal residences for many years owing to the change of taste in drink are rapidly being distributed over half the civilized globe. The story of how the King came to sell his sherry does not seem ever yet to be generally known. On stock being taken of the wine in the royal cellars after his majes- tvs ascension to the throne 1t was found that, owing to the unpopularity of sherry, enough of it had been laid down to last -at the present rate of consumption

 ''Why?" asked the lieutenant.
 Well he's had the job long enough to become reasonably familiar with the work and so we ought to put in a new man. There's always the danger that a man may become so proficient that the public will be led to expect too much of others, and we must guard against it.

THE CASE OF THE SEIZED MISSION
AIRY.

The case Of Miss Helen NJ. Stone that
has attracted SO much of public inter-
est, is at once strange N startling.
She is held by brigands in Bulgaria, in
Europe. and her ransom is fixed at
$40, 900. Thus far Kidder, Peabody &
Co., of Boston, have S56,574.61 in cash
and pledges. The bandits have ex-
tended h time for one month She
sailed on next Saturday for her mis-
sionary field il Bulgaria twenty-three
years ago. Her brother, Mr.. Charles
A. stone, desires the fund to obtain her
liberation shall be pressed without de-
lay. The United states will supply the
means to insure her return to liberty
and safety. 1t is said that three ma
tons are interesting themselves in her
behalf, to save her life. 1t is suspected
that the sultan of Turkey is at the
bottom of the villainy. \ prominent
American residing in Missouri, Dr..
Mesropean, says that he is sure that
it was the sultan who ordered her to
be taken across the Bulgarian border,
| so as to divert suspicion from himself.
1t is a move in retaliation for the en-
forced payment of the 100000 indemnity
which the United States exacted of
| Abdul Hamid for the burning of Amer
lean missionary buildings. / believe it
would be better for the government to
send a warship over than to a for
her liberation" Let both be done is
better. President Roosevelt is helping,
and says the first thing to do is to Sc
cure Miss Stones release. Other steps
may follow later. American citizens
peacefully engaged must be safe even
in Europe or in the domains of the
Turks.
