You must have courage, my boy. No
matter what band of circumstances ar.

purpose is right you will succeed. Life
is a beautiful thing. The chance to
fight is a great blessing. No matter
how hard the situation may seem, keep
on doing right. brayely face the future
set your standard high, work and wait
be patient and thankful, and you will
win. You may never be rich as the
world goes-not rich in money or rich
in power-but you may be rich in the
knowledge of the truth that you have
made the best of your chance to be a
man. Don't set your standard by the
men who have achieved great wealth

injured part He sent TO the old datto
who is lord of island, asking him to de-
tail one of his Moros for the operation
of being fayed to furnish the skin.
But the old chief sent back word that
the injured one was not worth it.
Learning of the necessity for the op-
Grafton, the Yankee marines came for
ward and volunteered to contribute
patches of their own skins to save the
mans life. The skin grating was sue
cessful, and the Moro is now most
devoted upholder of the stars and
stripes. His gratitude is tempered,
however, by the fact that he has a
white thigh, while the rest of his body
is a dark brown in color. AS the Moros
here go about mostly naked, his varie-
gated skin makes him trifle conspic-
uous.
Seriously this act of the marines in
voluntarily contributing portions Of
their own skins for the benefit of
poor, miserable Moro fisherman was

A ROCHAMBEAU ANECDOTE.


Wnshfngton's Extravaganza While
on n Trip to Meet French Count.
Apropos of the Rochambeau celebra-
ton, Mrs. Gertrude Atherton tells the
following anecdote, says the New York
Times:
Washington desired a personal con-
ference with Count Rochambenu, and
it was suggested that the meeting
should be at Wethersfleld, near Hart
ford, Conn. The principal difficulty
lay in the heavy expense Of such a
trip, but by collection among the off,
GERS fund of $4,000 was raised.
The Continental officers set on their
journey a week later, having commu-
nicated with Rochambeau, who agreed
to meet them at Wethersfield. All
went we'll until they reached Hartford
late in the afternoon, weary and raven
Gus. After bath and a glimpse of
luxurious beds they marched to the
dining room and sat down to sumptu-
Gus repast, whose like had greeted
neither nostril nor palate for many a
day. The wines were mellow, the to-
bacco good, the conversation gay until
midnight. The young men arose at
their accustomed hour the next morn
ing with appetites renewed, but waited
in vain for their chief. Hamilton final

MASKED MAN
HOLDS UP TRAIN
Express and Mail Car Rifled
and Engineer Killed by
Robber
BLOOD HOUNDS PURSUING BANDIT

Missoula, Mont, Oct 25.-An east
bound passenger train on the North
ern Pacific was held up Thursday
night near Drummond, Mont, As miles
from this city, and Engineer Dan
O'Neill was killed. The train, which
included mail. baggage and express
cars and nine coaches, arrived at Mis-
soula at 1920 p. M, and proceeded
eastward after q short delay at this
station. It arrived after midnight at a
place two miles west of Drummond.
Here the train was signalled to stop,
and the engineer slowed up. While
doing so he saw masked man creep
ing toward him over the tender. The
man, who was armed, called 70 O'Neill
to stop the train instantly.
The engineer took IN tho situation at
once. and. pulling open the throttle,
tried to start the train at full speed.
The robber OWNED his purpose and
fired at him. The shot took instant Of
feet. and the engineer fell dead at his
post. The robber then proceeded TO
rifle the express and mail cars. He
plundered the regular mail and blew
open the safe in the express car, which
was wrecked by the explosion.
The amount of plumber which he Sc
cured is not known at present, but it
is supposed to be large. The excite
ment on the train was intense. The
sudden stoppage of the train, followed
by the explosion, spread alarm among
the train hands and the passengers.
The darkness of the night and the
loneliness of the place added to the
general scenes of terror.
Word of the attack was sent to
Drummond, when 1t was telegraphed
to Deer Lodge, about so miles away.
Bloodhounds were sent out at once
and steps were taken to keep vigilant
watch for the robber. Latest advices
are that one man alone perpetrated the
murder and robbery.
The robber boasted that he was the
man who took part in the hold-up Of
the Southern Pacific train near Port
land, Ore, about one year ago. He
made this boast to the train hands to
terrorize them while he employed them
to run the train four miles to a point
two miles east of Drummond. He de-
clared that he would be hard to catch.
as he had a horse in the timber.
The Northern Pacific has offered a
reward Of $4,000 for delivery, dead or
alive, of the train robber who killed
Engineer O'Neill.
The mask worn by the bandit was
found on q mountain trail two miles
from the scene of the hold-up, and af-
ter giving the hounds the scent of the
mask the animals Immediately took
up the trail which was then about
eight hours old.

would be called to the Supreme bench
upon the retirement of Justice Shiras
and now there is talk among influential
politicians Of making him the Demo
cratic presidential nominee for 1904.
The career Of Judge Gray has been
remarkable in that he has received his
chief honors at the hands of Ropubli-
can Presidents, and should he be ap-
pointed to the Supreme Court it would
be a recognition Of his eminent abil-
tiles, ignoring narrow partisanship. 1t
would be like President Roosevelt to
make the appointment.
The last honor, that of having his
name mentioned as the candidate OF
Democracy for the presidency in 1904
is doubtful. Certain it is that Democ-
racy would have to come back &c
some semblaace Of sanity before h,
would be likely to crave the nomina.

had a right to denomination under
panty precedent and by reason Of his
services to the state, that man is Con-

pride ON the part of Delawareans, that
the Regular Republicans were willing
thus to sustain tnis representative citi-
zen. The Republican party may go tC
defeat as TO congressman on Novem'
Der A, but the Regular faction Of tha
body will have stood manfully t0gethel
in behalf of principle.
But the party has not yet gone L,
