that time young American went from
Manila to the port of Jolo. which was
not so hard to do. The sultan of Sulu
was far inland. The American re-
solved to visit him. The sultan had
heard Of the United States and had an
indefinite idea that there were a few
American soldiers In Luzon. He made
up his exalted mind that he would
whip out the United States and settle
things. He had his army all ready II
any white soldiers came his way.
This was his state of mind when
young Mr.. Albert Lawles, the Amer
lean, appeared with an interpreter be-
fore the gates Of his grass palace to
make friendly call But the sultan OF
Sulu swelled himself up like the frog
and assumed a high and naughty mlen.

to be put into prison for that night and
to be put to death next morning. The

solemn manner that II he himself
should be put to death white soldiers
would come and wreak such vengeance
that not a grass hut would be left to
the Sulus.
"But l have my army all ready to
meet them and kill every man if they
come" said the dusky despot.
Lawles made a grimace Of contempt.
"How many soldiers have you? he
asked.
1--WE got 1900" replied the frog,
putting himself up.
"Well." said the American, looking
him In the eye, "do you know that In
Luzon, in Panay and In Mindanao the
United States has already 40 times as
many men as you have In your whole
army. and it can send here as many
more men as there are stars In the Sky.

Lawles was talking for his life, argu-

he wasted no moments. He talked to

HER FIRST HUSBAND.
Martha Washington's Bcyish Lover il
Old Virginia.

Martha Washington's Bcyish Lover in
Old Virginia.
"Westover is perhaps the most beau
tiful of all the celebrated colonial
homes Of Virginia. writes Mrs. Thad-
deus Horton, in the October Ladies'
Home Journal. "It was built by Will
lam Byrd, a Virginian of Virginians.
The greatest Of his many claims to dis
tinction was his beautiful and beloved
daughter Evelyn, perhaps the most
celebrated belle of that day. She was
educated in England, whittier she &C
companied her father on almost all Of
his trips as colonial agent, and was
presented at the court Of George I. She
had many lovers, and naturally many
offers of marriage from men of distinc-
ton in the Old Dominion, for she was
not only a beauty but an heiress. Her
heart, however. was given, so it is
said, to her cousin, Colonel John GUSTS,
with whom she had had childish love
AFFAIR, but whom she had not seen for
some years, and she refused positively
to marry any other man. Finally,
quite in despair, her devoted father
sought to arrange a marriage between
her and the gallant Colonel Custis. For
some reason that gentleman was quite
indifferent to the match, and refused
1t altogether. 1t came to light later,
that during the years Of their separa-
ton his fancy had become estrangeu
from his erstwhile favorite Cousin
Evelyn, and he was at the time of
the overture from her father deeply in
love with one Martha cambridge, who
soon afterWard became his wife, and
subsequently the wife Of the illustrious
George Washington. The beautiful
Evelyn, on learning of Colonel Custis'
Indifference, pinned and faded, and in
spite of all the love lavished upon her
by friends and family, died of broken
heart, and her body now rests in the
old burying ground at Westover.''
