young folks decided that the only feas-
Bile way for them was to come to Am
erica. But Killian had no money and
the girls parents saw to it that she did
not get hold of enough cash to carry
out any such plans.
The way, however. was made clear
by a brave young brother of the SOL
dier, John Killian, who lives at S7S
South Third street. and has position
at the steel plant on South High street.
The soldier wrote his brother, John,
who is only twenty years DID, and John
volunteered to help the two to happi-
ness. He did not have money enough
to pay the passage of both his brother
and his brothers sweetheart. but he
borrowed enough to make up the deficit
and sent it to Bavaria. Joseph bought
tickets which included railroad passage
to Columbus and fled with Lena. They
could not marry in Bavaria, but they
intended to attend to that pleasant duty
as soon as they reached Columbus.
They took steerage passage to Balti-
more and reached that city Saturday.
There they met new difficulties. The
immigration officers would not stand
for Lena. She was not Joseph's wife
and she was held as pauper immi-
grant, having no money at all. Joseph
had enough money left to telegraph tc
his brother and John went out among
his friends, raised fifteen dollars. and
sent it to Baltimore. Joseph and Lena
Were married in Baltimore and ther
came on to Columbus. The bride is {
very pretty and refined young woman
and the husband is a splendid specimen
of physical manhood. He has OBJ
tanned employment at the steel plan
and will go to work Immediately.

of War News
Causing Sever Criticisms.

The extraordinary spectacle is pre-
sented of the advanced radical news
papers patting the War Office and
Kitchener on the back for suppressing
story of alleged Boer outrages to Brit
ish wounded, while the Times and 9TH
er Government organs say the feeling
aroused in the general public who have
up to this time blindly and enthusias-
tically supported the Governments war
policy can scarcely be estimated.
Officials of the War Office are more
worried now than at any previous time
during the war. They are working
strenuously to explain the mistake, The
incident awakened in the public nina
an eagerness, most unfavorable to the
Government, to know the details of the
operations and an ever increasing dis
satisfaction at the progress of the Brit
ish arms in South Africa.
tive party believe that if their party
had to go to the country now it would
be defeated providing semblance of
opposition could be mustered.
There is some talk in this connection
of the possibility of new Liberal or
ganization consisting of combination
of old Liberal Unionists and Liberal

WOMEN TO RIDE ASTRIDE
boston Society Women Unite to Intr

olspatch from Boston yesterday says:
Believing that In numbers there is strength.
the Boston women who will ride astride at
the horse show next week are not at all
apprehensfve Of adverse criticism but for
all that they are doing a lot Of practice
at the riding academies
The directors Of the horse show, three
years ago, put their stamp of disapproval
on women riding astride, but at the last
show Miss Stackpole appeared SO gracefully
riding In divided skirts that no objection
was made. This and the fact that some of
the women have been reading up history
has given an impetus to the crusade
against the side saddle
The society girls Of the Newbury street
colony seem to have been able to must er
the greatest strength, for among them are
the Misses Sheaf, Hoffman and Harrington,
but the reinforcements from Wellesley Col
lege and Laselle cannot be sneered at.
The Boston girls are not unmindful of the
fact that in Chicago the women who want
eo TO ride astride were barred out of the
morse show, but no such trouble Is expected
mere. They will, however, be in a minority
as most of the persons who will appear in
the saddle at the horse show will stick to
the conventional style. These include Miss
Hester Bancroft. Miss Florence Blair Miss
May Neurlng, Mrs. w. E. HOFFMAN. Miss
Marion Lawson. Miss Belle Hunt. Miss
Stearns and other well-known horse show
women. The advanced element has made
tne discovery that previous to the reign

ing deformed, was unable to do SO. and the
side saddle was introduced

OF bonds the holders belnS known as the
bondholders of 1874. In 1878 the company
issued $500, 600 of bonds, which became a
first mortgage on the coupons of the canal,
taking precedence on the state mortgage
of 1897. Judge Alvey in 1890 passed de-
cree placing the canal in the hands of the
trustees-John K. Cowen, Hugh l.. Bond.
jr., Joseph Byron, H. H. Keedy and Brad
ley T. Johnson-to be operated, and gave
them four years in which to make the ex-
pertinent. In 1894 the survivors of these
trustees, H. H. Keedy having died, and
Bradley T. Johnson having resigned, ap-
piled to Judge Stake for authority to eX-
tend the time in which to operate the canal,
Judge Stake passed an order extending the
time for six years. until May 1, 1901. This
order was sustained by the court of ap-
peals, and under it the canal is now being
operated.
The flood of 1889 did such great damage
to the waterway that it's operation had to
be stopped for time. Finally the money
for repairs was furnished by the 1878 bond
holders and this debt has been added to
the prior liens on the property. The bonds
of 1878 have been held mainly by Miss

ROCKVILLE, Nd, April 8. 1901
About thirty well-known followers of the
hounds from different sections Of this coun-
ty. Washington city and other points yes
terday participated in an unusually ex-
citing fox chase, which in the number of
dogs engaged surpassed anything OF the
kind ever held In this county. More than
100 as fine hounds as probably ever par
ticipated In a chase in Maryland were
brought together. Those who participated
in the sport Included eight members Of
the Chevy Chase club, several members
from each of the Sandy Spring, ColesviIle
and Howard County Hunt Clubs and the
following members of the Rockville Hunt
Club: Charles A. Clagett Edward c.

miles from this place, and after skirmisn-
ing around for half hour or more, sue
cerded In starting a big red fox. An ex-
citing chase followed, all of the dogs being
in fun cry. After the chase had been in
progress for about fifteen minutes a num-
Der of the dogs left the main pack and
started in hot pursuit in another direction.
1t was soon discovered that a second fox
had been started and the unusual pleasure
OF two chases at one time was enjoyed.
Both foxes were kept going at a lively
gait and after about two hours of hard
running were forced to take refuge in their
dens near Horner's MIL about four miles
from where they We're started. Owing to
the rough country it was impossible to
keep up with the hounds and not one of
the party was present the run in.''

DEPARTMENT STORES COMBINE

by j. Il. Morgan d Co.


Official notice of the rumored combina-
tion OF department stores was given I'm New
York yesterday by J. Pierpont Morgan q
Co., who solicited subscriptions to the stock
OF the Associated Merchants Company.
The company is capitalized at s20,0o0,ooo
and proposes to acquire dry goods busi-
nesses or interests in this and other cities.
The prospectus states that a one-half in
terest has been secured in both the n. b.
Clafiin Company and the Adams Dry Goods
Company, and that the James McCreery a.
Company's 23d street store has been bought
outright.
According to a source closely connected
with the dry goods trade. the syndicate be-
ing formed by John Clafiin intends to pur-
chase controlling interest in each of the
stores to be included. A new controlling
company will then be formed, the common
stock OF which will be exchanged for the
stocks of the constituent companies. while
some of the preferred will be put on the
market. The probable stock and bond issue
is estimated as high as S20,000.O00.
One consideration which makes the trans
action somewhat complicated is the diff

ACT A WORD TO LEARN 1T.
Freak System of Language Lessons
Introduced I'm Chicago.


Introduced I'm Chicago.
A special to the New York World from
Chicago yesterday says: Freak methods of
education were Illustrated this morning
when forty sets Of language lessons were
sent out to the public schools. These les
sons are In the form OF big posters on
which are printed in heavy type the word
to be learned by first and second grade
pupils. The method, as explained is a
combination OF Installation, auralization
and action, especially action.
The pupil is shown words such as HOP"
skip or jump" teacher then pro-
ceeds to put the word into action The
pupil initiates her, and after the whole
class spends sufficient time In hopping,
perfect so far as the word in question is
concerned.
The sight of a pretty teacher going
through this pantomine Is said to be
great stimulus to education. There is no
question about the enjoyment of the pupils
during the lesson.
The educators engaged in teaching the
system say that before two years have
gone by pupils will be able to go through
appropriate actions when they have such
expressions as Lean over your desk Put
the doll to sleep. Shake your left hand
slowly. Walk slowly and beat the drum
softly. Throw a bean-bag at the target.
Put your hands in your pockets. Bow to
the blue-eyed girl" This last is a favorite
with the boys, and it is claimed they an
play favorites.
Beating the drum softly" does not come
so easy, and shaking the left hand" In
always attended with the difficulty of dfa-
tinguishing 1t from the right.
