steep as the roof of house No one
else would dream of driving down it.
But Elliot Brown drove down this road
singing an old English song at the top
of his voice. Seeing him start at the
top, no one expected to see him alive
at the foot Of the hill.
A curious example of the fulfillment
of presentiment is found in the death
of Mr.. Browns mother. One afternoon
he told his foreman and wife. that he
knew something was wrong in England
with his mother. The foreman's wife
said:
You are not well. Mr.. Brown, you are
sick, or you would not worry so over
your mother"
The presentment was so strong how
ever i'm Browns mind that he decided
to arrange his affairs and start in few
days on a visit to his mother. Before he
could make the necessary arrangements
for the trip. a telegram came informing
him that on the very afternoon of his
anxiety. his mother had died in far-off
England.
His mother was the only relative that
Elliot Brown had in the world. Her
death made him melancholy and incon-
solable. For hours he sat under the
great cedar trees with his face buried
in his hands. The help on the ranch
all loved him Each, i'm his rough way,
tried to comfort him, but with no avail
For weeks it was feared that he might
put an end to his own life. At last
when every one on the ranch had failed
to cheer him. the foreman's wife decided
to try her little child of five years
Mr.. Brown" she said, in afterward
repeating the story, was lying on the
ground by the creek, his feet We're i'm
the water. but he did not notice it. A
soft rain was falling, but still Mr.. Brown
lay under the trees I made up my
mind I would send little John to him
as everyone else had failed to cheer him.
I washed Johns little face and curled
his pretty yellow hair, and said:
Go talk to Mr.. Brown. Johnny. tell
him to get up and come in out of the
rain
'I watched from behind the door to
see how John would succeed. The little
boy went right up to him. took hold Of
his hand. and with all his might. tried
The courier., 1902-12-06

to pull him up from the wet ground.
Get up, get up, Mr.. Brown he cried,
Why, you are lying here right in the
water, don't you see you are? You
know. Mr.. Brown, that your mother in
England died, and you will die If you
keep on lying in the water
''All the time John was pulling with
all his might to try and drag Mr.. Brown
from the ground. Mr.. Brown looked
right at John, and said, slow-like:
Johnny, are you all that have left
in this world to love me? Is there no
one left in the world to care If 1 am
alive or dead but you, johnny
Then jumping quickly from the
ground, he gathered John in his arms
and, with great strides, marched into his
own parlor in the other house.
When John came home 1 asked him
what Mr.. Brown said to him.
'''Oh,' said John, he asked me to stay
with him all night. He said the nights
were SO long, but told him could not
because my mama was 'fiaid nights ex-
cep' when 1 slept with her. Then he
took me hard in his arms and kissed me

of the story:
&" Mr.. Brown never came home but he
had something for me. One time he
bought me a red kite, and we went out
together to fly it. He don't bring me
any more things now. He always took
me with him in the buggy, or just some
times. We went together over Old
Woman creek, and he had me with him,
and he was all right, but the next time
he went, he did not take me, and you
know how it was. The little creek, was,
oh, so wide, and making a great noise.
When Mr.. Brown rode in, the horse
sunk out of sight, then the horse turned
in the water and kicked Mr.. Brown in
the chest, and he drowned. Now I al

Many stories of shooting from ambush
have been brought out by the trial of
the Wyoming murderer, Tom Horn.
Similar TO these, is the story of Elliot
Brown OF Lusk, Wyoming.
Elliot Brown was young Englishman,
representing an eastern syndicate, which
was running a bunch of 10000 sheep on
Black Thunder creek, Wyoming. The
home ranch is twenty miles below the
sheep range. The house stands in a
wooded valley, whose natural beauty Mr..
Brown has improved, until il is more
like an English park than a rough val
ley of Wyoming. About mile from the
ranch house there are a few acres of
wild wood tangle that Mr.. Brown was
too busy to subdue. The road to the
ranch led through this dense under
growth of bushes, overrun with wild
grapevines. In all Wyoming there is not
a lonelier spot. Even at midday there is
something creepy about il. No place
was ever better adapted for a midnight
ambush. One night Elliot Brown was
riding through the wooded tangle. Sud-
denly from the choke-cherry bushes
there was a sharp report, and a bullet
plowed a red furrow across the bridge
of Elliot Browns nose. The horse
lunged forward around the curve, an
other report of the pistol, but the very
density of the underbrush saved the
mans life.
Brown drove quickly home, took down
n brace of revolvers. and on foot re-
turned to the dark wood. He could not
find his enemy. Everyone in the coun-
try knew Brown and preferred to shoot
at him from ambush rather than in the
open field The would-be murderer
knew that Brown would return with fire.
arms. He judged that in his own case
discretion was the better part of valor,
and made friends of his feet.
Brown was a peculiar and lovable
character He always said that he
hoped at death to be killed by a horse.

FIGHTING THE PLAGUE.
Entire Population of the Punjab Will
Be lnocuIated.

Calcutta, Oct. 2S.-The government
of the Punjab recently took what it
considered was an extreme step to pre-
vent the spread of bubonic plague in
that province. 1t issued an order d.
recting that the entire population
should submit to incubation against
the disease at the hands of the sani-
tary officers. but at the same time it
was feared that the natives, with their
usual antipathy to anything partaking
of the nature of sanitary precautions,
would bitterly oppose compliance with
the order. Much to the surprise of the
authorities. however, no opposition is
being offered and the work of inocula-
ton, which is tremendous task, is
progressing satisfactorily.

COLONIAL SECRETARY CHAMBER
LAIN TO PAY A VISIT TO
SOUTH AFRICA.
CONDITIONS CONSIDERED BAD

Feeling Between the British and Dutch
People Said to Be More Bitter Than
It Was in the Days Before the War.
LoyaIists in Cape Colony Reported
Greatly Alarmed at the Existing
State of Affairs.
New York, Oct. 2S.-Gloomy &C.
counts OIL the state of affairs IN Cape
Colony, the Orange River Colony and
the Transvaal have been received here
from time to time through private
channels, but there has been a tenden-
cy to discredit them, cables the Lon
don correspondent of the Tribune. The
announcement of Colonial Secretary
Chamberlain's decision to proceed to
South Africa in order to examine on
the spot the problems presented by
the termination of the war and the
settlement of affairs in the new Brit
ish colonies consequently caused the
utmost surprise in political circles. 1t
is tolerably certain, declares the cor
respondent, that if the situation had
not been one of peril the colonial Sec
rotary would have left the whole mat
ter absolutely in the hands Of Lord
Miner. The feeling between the
British and Dutch people in Cape Col
ony just now is said to be more bitter
than it was in the days before the war.
The Transvaal and Free State colors
are worn freely in the Dutch towns Of
the Cape. The loyalists are naturally
alarmed at this state of things.
Ever since Mr.. Chamberlain anne
colonial secretary he has disre. erded
precedent. One notable instance,
which has a slight resemblance to a
master stroke of policy now initiated
by him, was his visit last autumn to
Malta to inquire into the petition of
the Maltese against compulsory adop-
ton of the English language.
When he returned to London he con-
suited with his colleagues and soon
afterward came an intimation that the
Objectionable edict had been with
drawn. 1t is possible that it is this ex-
perience which has prompted him to
study for himself the present position
of affairs. not only at the Cape but in
England's two new colonies, so as to
be able to initiate and carry out an i'm
perial policy which will be best suited
to the requirements of the whole of
British South Africa.

Philadelphians may be slow about some
things, but the matter of dress is not
one of them. This coat is of olive green
covert cloth, rainproof of course. 1t is
cut with a triple cape strapped on the
edges and a high, outstanding collar OF
velvet, deep crimson in shade. Over
the edge of this collar there is a strap
of the cloth held down by large gun
metal button. The front edge of the
lowest cape is held down in a similar
manner with two buttons. This is both
ornamental and useful because other
wise the capes would fly back in the
