A Schley Surprise.

There is said to he big surprise IN
store for the navy department when
the court of inquiry meets to investi-
gate the charges against Schley. Jere
Wilson. the noted lawyer of Washing
ton, will he one OF Schley's counsel
and ii is said that former Secretary Of
the Navy Benjamin f.. Tracy. of New
York. Will also appear on that side Of
the case. That is the surprise which
may worry Secretary Long. Gen.
Tracy is one of the greatest lawyers In
the United States. ana was Harrisons
secretary of the navy. and ii is wills
pered that his part in the cases will
be so 10 handle the witnesses as 10
reveal political favoritism and petty
department scandals which will not
only assist to create the impression
that Schley is the victim of bureau
jealousies. but will also embarrass the
administration.
1t is intimated by Schley'S
friends that Tracy will so develop
the bureaucratic methods OF the
navy department before the court as
TO create Il sensation if not Il naval
scandal and compel Il complete over
hauling of the department. Wealthy
men in New York and Boston have
taken up the cause of Schley and stand
ready TO contribute all the money
needed for the employment of counsel
and ii is intimated that there will bc
other great lawyers in the case when
1t comes to a hearing.

A Million DoIInr SxytndIe

The details OF an alleged attempt to
swindle banks on Il large scale by
means Of fraudulent corporations and
fictitious notes is told in petition
filed in the Baltimore county circuit
court at Towson. Nd. for a receiver
for the Manor Lumber Co. of that
town. The amount involved. according
TO the petition. is over Sl.000.000 and
it Is asserted that the scheme has been
az least partially successful. Benia-
min W. Cross. OF Cincinnati is the
plaintiff. and according TO the story
told by him. he was induced TO accept
certificates OF stock i'm the Manor Co.
by Charles l.. Corkran. originator and
promoter OF the scheme. which stock
he subsequently transferred back to
COrkran. Cross has learned since. he
says. that the company was not incor-
porated for the purpose Of doing q le-
climate business. but formed by Mr..
Cochran as n part of scheme for al
leced swindlns. covering territory
from Boston on the north to Chicago
on the west and Asheyille on the
south.

The art of properly buttoning a coat
any COATS, do 1t the other way.
That is to say that nine out of every
ten of us button our coats the wrong
way; we commence with the topmost
button when we should commence
with the bottommost. The frailest por-
ton OF coat, in respect TO shape-re-
tanning qualities--no matter how well
made-is the region Of collar and
lapels. The swagger merchant tailor
always cautions his customer to wear
it buttoned few days so that the col
lar may set properly" Then, this adj
mitted, it follows that tugs and strains
affecting this part of the garment tend
to destroy its symmetry. Drawing he
coat together by the topbutton and
buttonhole for the purpose of fasten-
ing, exerts a pull all around the shout
ders and neck region, which, by repe-
tition, in time will give the smartest
coat n hang-dog ppearance.-Chat.

Starvation I'm Russin

AdviceS from Moscow say Russia is
on the eve of famine Nearly third
of the provinces of European Russia
are officially declared TO have produc-
ed insufficient" others sufficient"
and others still under the average"
crop Of cereals. Only two provinces
oct OF seventy have really good har-
vests. Among the Insufficient are
the best wheat growing districts. The
official insufficient means utter starva-
ton. The famine stricken area exceeds
half n million square miles. and about
the same area as that Of the great
famine of 1SDl. The population num-
bers 53.000000. The hopes founded
on the report of two months ago have
vanished.

The Heart Of a Woman.
nv GARRARD HARRIS.


Copyright 1901 by Daily Story Pub Coz
They sat before smouldering fire in
the little cabin, the two old people,
upon whom the burden of years rest
ed with no caressing weight. On every
line OF their features, unceasing toll,
barren hardship and the lot OF sordid
poverty were written indelibly.
Not a word was spoken. Once In
a while a tear welled from the old
womSn's eyes, and rolled silently
down the withered cheek, wrinkich
and furrowed with time and sorrow.
The old man said nothing, but stared
at the embers with a dazed. hopeless
expression.
1t was n sad affair the killing of
Joe Wilson by his brother Jim. Joe
was by far the best one OF the two
young men-a quiet fellow, who had
stood by the old folks manfukly, ard
done his full share towards making
the evening OF their lives little more
comfortable than 1t otherwise would
have been. He was sober, steady, and
well liked by every one. Especially
was he fond of his mother-he was
always showing it by little thoughtful
acts. To her, he was all there was In
life. she had few dreams of happiness
beyond him.
On the contrary, Jim was about the
most tr1fling limb OF Satan in the en-
tire settlement He was drunk half
the time, and manifested deep and
steady aversion to the strenuous life.
His associates and intimates were of
the lowest, and altogether. he was a
pretty tough customer. He cared
nothing for his parents, or God, or
man, and upon several occasions had
struck his mother, while his tottering
old father was thoroughly cowed by
him. Strange TO say, of the two boys.
Jim was the fathers favorite.
He'll get over all this after a
while, mother; it's jest the young
blood in him. He don't mean no harm
by it-why, / used ter be mighty nigh
as wild as jim"
Eyes, but | know you never struck
your pore old mother, nor yer pa
now did your"
mo, must say | never done that.
But Jim were drinkin' some, or he'd
a never done it, neither"
The woman sighed. Jim was al
ways defended, while the least short
coming on the part of Joe had the

body on this yeTth nohow."
Don't, don't talk that way, Nance"
the old man begged. Jim didn't
mean hit he were crazy with liquor.
We've lost enc of our sons and what's
the use OF havin' the other one go too?
He'll go to hell sure If he's hanged
in his sin, If he's allowed to live.

some sence he's gone so lonesome"
She began to cry softly.
The days wore one. At last the
court session began. and every one
expected that the murderer would be
hanged. The only eye witness to the
killing was the mother of the two
boys, and 1t was generally understood
that she was very bitter indeed
against Jim, and desired his punish
ment should be the extreme penalty,
which was death.
The grand jury was empaneled, and
the district attorney had her sum
moned before that tribunal.
Now, madam" he said, II want
you to tell the grand jury all about
this unfortunate affair. l understand
you are the only eye witness. Hold
up your right hand Do you solemn
ly swear that the testimony you are
about to give in this case shall be the
truth, the whole truth, and nothing
but the truth, so help you, Almighty
God?"
Il DO" she whispered.
We'll, go on now. and tell what
you know about it,"
There amt much to tell" she said,
In a low voice. Joe and jim was

reached back for his pistol, and Jim
got his'n out first, and fed, and Joe
fell: Jim had ter shoot ter save him

Amusement was depicted on the
faces OF the grand jurors. The dis
trict attorney looked at the witness
ksenly. That Is sufficient. you may
go. The case is nolle pressed"
The jurors saw the old woman rejoin
her husband, and the two go dodder-
i1g over TO the Jail TO receive their
son, the murderer, who walked out
a free man.

senator Chandler. Spartan Mother.

1t was always noticed OF William E.
Chandler, while in the senate, says
the Washington Post, that he never
allowed the present moment to pass
when he had anything to do. The
word "procrastination" was not in his
lexicon. This lesson he had had drilled
into him early by his mother, New
England woman Of sturdy conscience
and character. Once, when he came
home for a holiday from an academy
six miles distant, she discovered that
he had left his umbrella at school.
William" said she, you need not
take of your hat Go right back and
fetch that umbrella" "But mother"
pleaded the lad, that's six miles, and
the teams are all moving this way
now, so l shan't get lift" Then
walk" was all the cc.lfort he got. He
trudged off, recovered his umbrella,
and made a philosophical application
OF this and other experiences in the
same line to the business which filled
his life at a later stage.
