she reaches the city. The girl is ingen-

As intmated at the outset, the term
evolution is used in connection with
these problems in asmanner that con
fuses and obscures the issue. Those
who aim to curb the abuses of the
trusts are not seeking to set aside
natures laws. but merely TO deprive
these great combinations of artificial
advantages to which they are not en-
titled. and whereby they are enabled
to oppress the people as a body.

According to dispatches from Sofia
yesterday, there would seem TO be little
room for doubt that the abduction of
Miss Stone, the American missionary,
was in pursuance OF general plan of
kidnapping and blackmail adopted by the
Macedonian revolutiOnists to secure
funds with which to buy arms and am
munition. II appears to be possible that
the Bulgarian Government has winked at
the crime, and is anxious, equally with
the "brigands,' TO have the fun ransom
paid, as the money viii be devoted to

1t is pleasant to note the gradual
change Of tone of the London press on
the subject of the Clayton-Bulwer
Treaty. The Spectator" has favored a
surrender of the British contention on

would be best to let the United States
build, pay for, and guarantee the neu-
trality of the. Nicaragua Canal, without
Interference from England. All such lit
tie breezes bring encouragement. but, re-
membering the Hay-Pauncefote business

REGARDING CoLoRED Man
CONGREGATIONAL MISSIONARIES
PASS RESOLUTIONS.

Chicago, Oct. 22.-President Roose-
velts action in entertaining Booker
T. Washington, the noted colored ed
ucator, at the white house, was up
held and publicly approved by the
American Missionary association
which opened it's 55th annual meeting
today at the First Congregational
church at Oak Park. The matter had
been a common topic Of conversation
among the delegates to the conven-
ton throughout the day, societies
prominence in the education Of the
negro making it a matter of unusual
interest.
Additional Importance was lent to
the affair from the fact that Booker
T. Washington is the protege of the
association. He received his first
assistance in securing an education
from the association and the impetus
and encouragement thus given him IN
his youth has often been acknoW-
lodged by him as the basis of the en-
inence he now enjoyes.
The afternoon session had slipped
away before the sentiment of the del
egates c~rystalized into action and the
matter was taken up by the business
committee.
Before they had formulated suita
BILE resolutions the session had ad
iourned and action vas postponed un
til the evening meeting which, it ha6
been planned. was to have been en-
tirely taken up with a ermon ant
communion service. The matter Wa'
deemed. however, Of sufficient import
, ance for a change in the program.
When the meeting convened in tn
!, evening, Thomas G. Macmillan Q
Chicago, one of the lay delegate
arose and on behalf of the bushes
committee presented the followin
( resolution:
y "The American Missionary associ'
ton of Congregational churches,

MANY COME TO SHAKE HANDS
WITH CHIEF EXECUTIVE.
NO ARRANGED PROGRAMME
The Intention Being to Make Visit to
His Sister An Entirely Priv
ate Affair.

Pennington, Conn.,, Oct. 22.-Presi'
dent Roosevelt's day in Pennington
provided quite a notable addition to
the historic annals of this ordinarily
quiet old town.
The intention of the presidents
sister, Mrs. Cowles, to make the oc-
casion a private affair was consider
ably overcome by the anxiety OF the
people to see the president and grasp
his hand.
Throughout the morning there was
no particular demonstration but by
the middle of the afternoon the turn
out of towns-people added to the IN
fux of several hundred from Hartford
and adjoining townships, enlarged
the throng to proportions much be-
yond that to which Pennington is ac-
customed.
The absence of a publicly announc'
ed program gave an element OF uncer
tainty to the day. Everybody on the
street was inquiring when and where
the president could be seen, but the
mass of people went away satisfied
for the president made three dasheS
through portions of the town. In the
last of these he rode out in an ope1
carriage through the big crowd as
sembled on the principal street cor
ners lust at the conclusion OF tn
ceremony of planting the Mcklnle'

Helena. Oct. pa patient in the
insane asylum, Mrs. Eliza Sobey, VINO
is under her third commitment Q
Jefferson county, used a large Mount
of greenbacks in rolling her hair into
proper shape. Some women use pap
err to make what is known as a rat
around which their surplus hair is
rolled. Mrs. Sobey used several hum
dred dollars in greenbacks for this
purpose. The unique discovery was
made at the asylum a few days ago,
and today the money was turned over
to the state treasurer to be kept until
the patient is released from the asy-
lum.
DR.. o. Y. Warren brought the mon
ey to Helena and told the board OF
commissioners for the insane OF his
strange discovery. 1t appears tina
Mrs. Sobey had been acting unusually
strange of late, frequently putting he1
hand up to her head. DR.. Warren tolt
Mrs. Brown, one of the attendant:
at the asylum, to examine the Wo
mans hair. Pulling down the hair
Mrs. Brown was amazed at the wealth
of money discovered. A roll of bill

found to consist of eight $1O0 bill
and $1S5 in smaller bills, or $685. i
