q shall remember said Angela.
And, my dear" continued the
faithful old servant, 'Eit will be better
that we should not be seen talking
together after this; then no one will
think that there has been any com
municatiOn between us, and there
will be no possible trace as to where
you have gone. II the captain saw
me talking to you, he might, when he
finds out what has happened, suspect
me, and then it would be easy enough
to connect my cousin with your alb
sence. We will keep apart, miss"
But how shall | know. nurse.
whether your plan can be carried
out? 1t will be wiser not to be seen
together, [ admit; but how will you
let me know as to the final arrange
ments?"
Jane Felspar thought for few
minutes, and then she said:
Il must give you a silent message,
miss. This is Tuesday morning. Ny
cousin will receive my letter ON
Wednesday, and her answer will
reach me on Thursday morning.
Miss Angela, have everything in
readiness; for if on Thursday night
you find on your toilet-ta a vase
filled with viOlets. that will be my
message, and it will mean that early
on Friday morning, before the house
hold her are awake or astir, you are
to go to BrantOme Hall. Leave a
letter for my lady, telling her that
you have an imperative reason which
you cannot disclose for leaving home
for some weeks. Write lat letter.
SO that my lady can show it to the
captain. Then write another letter
and place it inside; mark it private,
so that my lady may know it is for
her eyes alone; and in that letter
tell her that you will return home
when the viii she made is Cancelled,
but that you will not return until
then"
"a very wise suggestion" declared
Angela. How clever you are TO
think of such things! They would
never have occurred to me-
THAT is the difference between
youth and age, Miss Angela. Be
sides, have seen much of life, and
you have been taken care of like
cherished flower; the rougher ways
Of the world are quite unknown to
you"
The world will never be the same
place, and life will never be the same
thing to me again, Jane" the girl
remarked, after pause. L feel so
many years older luan did; I
shall never be a girl again.

LOSS BY LIGHTNING.

From 700 to 800 persons are killed
annually in the United States from
lightning strokes, is the estimate
given by Prof. A ]. Henry in a bulle-
tin on the subject recently published
by the United States weather bureau
For some years the weather bureau
has been seeking to ascertain the loss
OF life from this cause, and in 1900 re-
ceived actual records of 713 fatal
cases of lightning stroke This num-
Der was obtained from the reports of
the many officials of the bureau
throughout the country and from
lightning cases cited in the newspa
pers, especially in the journals of the

BIDDING FOR soNS-lN-LAW.
Clever and Agreeable Scheme of
Rich Filipino.


Rich Filipino.
Evidence continues to accumulate
that the Filipinos are apt pupils OF
learned, they may be applied with
American ways and ideas. Their
lessons may be somewhat crud@jE
genuOuSneSS, but nevertheless the
native of our far eastern domain
gives us ample proof that ..e is learn
ing to do things much as we do them
here.
Take for example, the generous
and frank offer Oh General Zano OF
Cavite. The general is a millionaire
many times over. and he has a family
OF manageable daughters. Presum-
ably these damsels have been given
all the advantage OF education ana
culture as these things are under
stood III the Philippines. From the
Filipino point OF view they are
doubtless matrimonial bargains. But
their fatner looks beyond and above
the native swain. He wishes his
daughters to marry Americans and
army officers at that. So to catch
the American eye for business and at
! the same time to give as much EN-
phasis as possible to the natural
charms of his girls, he makes a bid
in the open market of 100000 to
each American officer that will help
reduce his surplus of spinsters
| Unfortunately we are not told
| how many disposable daughters e
! general has, but even were there out
! two, they would represent a cool
million And as the only proviso ap-
| pears to be that the candidates for
matrimonial alliance with the ZanO
| family shall be American army Of
| ficers-sailors are evidently barred
! it. does not seem likely that the
| ANXIOUS and thrifty father will have
| TO do much begging.
! AS We do not know the degree of
| attractiVeness possessed by these
| Filipino uamSels we cannot in Justice
| to them speculate upon the financial
! argument necessary to persuade
Would-be suitors to turn an indulgent
| eye upon their possible physical
! shortcomings Granted however
| that they are as personable as the
average Filipino belle, We should say
| that the general has made a very
| liberal offer, and we venture to pre-.
| dict that even by this time more than
! one officers heart has gone out to-
the aliuring dot.
| True, ,eneral Zano's manner OF
| adopting one Of our customs is much
| toe tactlesS TO meet with our approval
| He should have allowed his daughters
| to- do little negotiating on their own
account, and when they had found
officers to their liking they could
have limited in a delicate and tactful
way that their father didn't know
What to do with all his money and
would welcome a limited number OF
| American sons-in-Iaw to help relieve
him OF his burden.
This would have been more in
keeping with the way our match
| fathers arrange for the annexation of
a foreign title. The object is the
same in bOth cases-to get the
daughters married; the difference
lies in the methods employed. And
taking everything into consideration
perhaps General Zano's way is better
1T is at least not open to miscOn-
structiOn. He wishes a certain sort
OF husband for each of his daughters,
and he is frankly willing to pay d
stiff price for him-or it.

An Enticinu CARGO.

Did you ever seen anything like
the way those Hobohen people flock
around the HohenzOllern?" remarked
the North River mermaid.

AT the same time it was noticed
that the mermaids, with sideIong
glances, scuttled a little closer them

Gabe Beck In Ardmore.

Gabe Beck has gone TO Ardmore, l.
T., to assist Mood Bellew, who is
charged with killing his landlord, in
preparing his defense.
Mr.. Beck was once United States
Marshal in the Territory and his ac
quaintance and standing with the Off
GERS there will doubtless enable him
TO render greater assistance to Mr.
Bellew than any other citizen in our
country, He seems quite ready to make
the necessary sacrifice of time and
money.-McKinney Daily Gazette.

lister. One day the police became ac.
tive. and had 200 loads Of coal weigh.
90 only two Of the 200 had as much
coal as the tickets accompanying the
bills called for. Being charged with
this fraud. the dealers set up an
unique defense.
Their plan is that they get short
weight when they buy and the only way
10 keep even rs 10 sell short weight
They are dcfrauded and they must de

arranged 10 get their supply of fuel

but loot passing trains. AZ the yards
men women and boys pick coal on
the cars, and no arrests are made OF
steps taken to stop f. The result ~ a
loss Of a 1000 10 5000 pounds IN each
