Gould Wanted More Snee,
CAN'T FIND A WIFE
WHO SUITS HIM WELL
Ohio Man in a Precipitation Because
He VIII Lose Fortune If He
Doesn't Marry Soon.

BOWLING GREEN, Ohio, July 26-
Frederick Schmidt, a day Iaborer who
has been employed on street improve
ments here for some weeks, yester-
day received word that his grandmoth-
err, Augusta Schmidt, in Sake Weimar.
Germany, had died. Her death leaves
him the heir to a vast estate In Ger
many. Schmidt, however, Is bound by
the will of his grandfather, who still
lives, to marry before he can claim the
estate.
The history of the entire affair is ro-
mantle and interesting, and one would
not dream that the dusty tanned and
hardest laborer was the scion of
one of one Of the aristocratfc German
families. Twelve years ago Schmidt
lived with his grandparents on their es-
tate. The old man was anxious that
Frederick marry a certain very wealthy
woman, to whom the young man had
taken strange dislike.
He was unreasonable, and, after a
stormy scene, young Frederick left for
America.
Being ignorant of American customs
and the English language he found
it impossible to obtain other than un-
skilled employment. He travelled all
over this country, working in various
places and occasionally writing home.
The old man at last relented and wrote
for him to return and again live with
them, but, knowing that the old man
would try to force an Objectionable
connection upon him, the youth stayed
here. The old man made his will, and
therein a clause that provides that if
at his (the grandfather's) death Fred
erick Is not married the estate goes
to the church and charitable inStitu-
tons. The old man Is now In feeble
health and Frederick realizes that I'M
less he soon acquires a partner the
fortune may slip through his fingers.
He Is determined, however, not to
marry any woman who shall not be
willing to face with him the battle
of life. He dramatically declares that
If he is not man enough in his overalls
to marry any woman he does not want
her. Connected with this side of his
strange affair Is a story concerning

him repeatedly not to attempt to take
any musk OK out of those regions alive.
They believed that if any were taken
out they would be damned in the eyes
of the Creator. They are a superstt-
tious as well as religious people. But
Jones needed not their warning. One
morning when he awoke he was horri-
fed to find his five musk OK dead with
their throats cut. The natives had
followed him and put into execution
their threats.
Genuine Musk Ok.
Recently musk OK was brought by
a whaler and sold to a Chicago man.
The new owner didn't know whether it
was a musk OK or not. He was afraid
he had been gold bricked. He wired

possessed of good guns; but before the
animals came within 800 yards Of

partner in whisper: Let us COM

let us alone, We'll let them go by Mr..
Shultz smiled as I trembled; I could
not have hit whole flock of barns 200
feet away. The buffalo grazed along,
coming so close that at every mouth
full of grass they gathered I could dis

NEW KIND OF METAL is
FOUND IN IDAHO MINES.

Is Unknown to Science-ResembIes
Nickel and is Called Josephineite.
An unknown metal, occurring in mug
gets of both large and small sizes, is
found in quantities in the placer mines
occupying what is known as the "an-
cient Illinois river channel" in the
Waldo district, Idaho. B. E. Meredith,
manager and owner Of the Meredith
Hydraulic mines, on the Illinois river,
brought in a quantity of the strange
nuggets from his property. Mr., Mere

STREET CAR STRIKE ENDED.
Settlement Effected and Old Employees
Resume Former Positions.

The great New Orleans street rail-
way strike is at an end, after fifteen
days of incessant wrangling between
the railway company and the striking
employees, during which time not a
single car, save those which carry the
mall made trip.
The terms of settlement were reached
Sunday after long conference be-
tween Governor Heard, the mayor and
members of the executive committee of
the railways company and street car
union and other prominent individuals
who were anxious that the differences
should be adjusted amicably and who
were averse to running the cars with
non-union men under protection of the
state militia. This method, however,
would have been resored to had not an
agreement been reached as several
com panies of soldiers had reported at
New Orleans for duty.
Concessions were made on both sides
and it was finally agreed that the
company should not discriminate
against any man who went out on the
strike and that all men receive twenty
cents an hour, ten hours, as nearly as
practicable to constitute days work,
and that seven and one half hours pay
should be the minimum received by
any regular man.
All imported men were sent to their
respective homes and the operators
instructed to report to their old fore
men Monday morning. The work of
repairing damaged cars, tracks and
wires began at once and Monday noon
many of the cars were running on
schedule time.
The footsore citizens of the city were
jubilant over the agreement and bust
ness is beginning to assume normal
conditions. The strike was the sever
est shock to the business interests of
New Orleans experienced in many
years and the peacable settlement was
gratifying to all parties concerned.

MORE BUSINESS.
Short Talks ON Advertising by Charlie
Austin Bates.

Don't expect the newspaper to do all.
Look out for the show window and the
cases and counters. When you adver-
tise something of special interest in
the papers, fill the window with it and
have it prominently displayed in the
store. Have some neat tickets painted
and hang up above or near the goods.
Be sure all the clerks know what is
going on. If 1 were running a store
L would make it the first rule that ev-
cry clerk should read every adver-
tisement every day. 1 would have
them understand just what 1 was try
ing to do with each advertisement
lust what the goods were and where
thew came from and how they hap
pened to be so cheap, Or so good, or
both.
The newspaper is sometimes blamed
for the i'll success of an advertisement
when the real fault is right in the store.
Don't ever expect spasmod1c advertls-
ing to pay. Don't ever let an issue of
paper you are using appear without
your advertisement.

somebody will look for it, and, not
finding it, go to competitor. The

A sale is secured by the last word

miums or the policy will lapse.

Robert Trousdale, of Westlake, ap-
reared in court this morning in COM
pany with his five children, to hear the

of the little ones as To the complaint
that leprosy existed in the family. Do

no decision was reached. This child,

said the boy could be produced in ten
days. He asked further that an ex-
pert in leprosy cases be secured, as he
did not believe the local physicians
called in the case had had sufficient
knowledge of the disease to pass with
authority upon it. Mr.. Trousdale,
while almost broken down with grief
over the awful calamity which has be-
fallen his family, was respectful in his
language as to the physicians, and
said he particularly desired not to be
considered disrespectful. DR.. G. L.
Richardson said very mildly in reply
to Mr.. Trousdale that he had right
to his opinion.
Judge Miller told Mr.. Trousdale to
take his children home and get the
missing boy, that he may be examined.

Grimm Sold Bogus Plans.

Vienna, June 1S.-The Neues Tage- blatt says 1t is a fact that Colonel Grimm of the Russian army, while ac- cepting enormous bribes from Ger many and Austria for the betrayal of Russia's military plans, sold to these powers bogus plans which he had him. self concocted. The paper says also that this fact was accepted by the court which tried Colonel Grimm as an extenuating circumstance and that otherwise he would have been sem fenced for life. The paper adds that Colonel Grimm's sentence of twelve years Imprisonment at hard labor which was imposed at Warsaw, Rus sian Poland, July 13 includes lifelong police supervision and military degra- datiOn,
