Tell me everything she said," ia
META answered, with a sickening dread
at her heart that Mrs. Mortimer had
guessed at or listened to what had
passed between her and Captain Meri-
vale.
"She says that you are deceiving
me all the way round-that you are
the most awful flirt. and she can prove
It,"
Her first charge may be dismissed
on that score, at any rate" Janetta
said, q little bitterly. "The man I
sent away just now-who, it Is true,
had had mor than enough to drink
was my only brother"
Janetta's head dropped with shame
- she made the confession.
"Oh. you poor darling!" cried Clar-
Ice, trying to possess herself of one OF
Janetta's hands; but the girl held them
folded in front Of her.

you know everything. Go On"
"She said that you are deliberately
setting your cap at Doctor Drake; that
you made an appointment to meet him
the day Harry left"
Its q lie!" said Janetta desperately.
Il me Doctor Drake that day by pure
chance and I stopped to ask him II he
could advise any method Of treatment
that would hasten your recovery. Any
thing else?"
You carry conviction. az You always

pillows. II don't think I will even hint
ct her last charge; It II altogether toe

Il must hear It," said Janetta hoarse-
".
''She said you tried to make Harry
fabe to me. Oh. dear, it's too shame
full and wicked even to mention such

There was q long pause: then Janet
u lifted her head and looked full into
Clarice's eyes.
I'm all my intercourse with Captain
Mer1vale l never said q word to him

you to hear"
Clarice gave . little sigh Of relief.
Il knew II, dear: but. just to satisfy
me, tell me straight out that you did
not care for him except as q friend.
Only to please me. not because I doubt

"A shiver shook Janetta from head to
loot. She tried to speak, but though
her lips moved no sound passed them;
then she threw herself sobbing at Clar-
tce's feet.

AN EXPLOSION or DIST

Fire Followed the Explosion and the
Bodies OF the Victims We're
hoekingly Burned.

Oskaloosa Ia, Jan. 25-Twenty-one
dead and eight terribly injured is the
shocking record of a disaster at Lost
Greek colliery yesterday afternoon.
The explosion occurred at noon and
was what is known as a dust exolo-
sion. The miners had just fired the.r
usual noon shots. one of which proved
to be a fizzle. The burning powder
ignited the gas and the explosion fol
lowed. Smoke and debris were blown
out OF the shaft 200 feet high. Part of
the top works We're torn away and the
fans and cages were partially wrecked.
This made the work of rescue very
slow and il was 3 o'clock before vol
unteer parties dared TO venture into
the east entry where the explosion oc-

in horrible sight greeted them. The
dead and injured were terribly burned
and mutilated. some of them almost
beyond recognition. Fire. which 1t
was at first feared would destroy the
entire mine had broken out and this
added terror to the spectacle. The
flames were finally controlled and
after several Of the rescue party had
succumbed to the fumes all the dead
were found and carried to the top of
the shaft. Al the time of the explosion
more than 100 men were in the mine,
but all those except the men in the
east entry escaped with only slight
injury. The total property damage
will be about $4,000. 1t was nearly
o'clock last evening when the last
of the dead was taken out and scenes
of anguish among the families of the
men were most pitifu1. Nearly all Of
the men were married and leave fam
lilies in poor circumstances. The mine
is owned by the Lost Creek Fuel com
pany of this city and has been in OPP
Grafton about one year.

Manila, Jan. 25.-Both the civil and
military authorities here deprecate the
publication in the Philippines of Prof.
Schurman's Boston speech and the mi
nority report in the senate on the
Philippine tariff bill which, they say
are liable to have bad effect on the
Filipinos.
General Wheaton, commander of the
department of the North Philippines.
says men have been sent to prison
here for remarks such as those of
Prof Schurman. and that If what he
advocates was accomplished 1T would
mean the expenditure of much treas
ure and the shedding of blood like
water Now, as before, he adds. So
900 soldiers are needed here and will
be required in these islands for at
least five years. 1t will then be pos
sible to form a government based on
that of the colonies of Holland and
Great Britain, they having proved the
most successful managers of Oriental
races

How to Initiate Singing Bird.

According to La Nature, with any
glass tube whatever il is possible to
easily reproduce the song of bird 1t
suffices to rub the tube lengthwise with
piece of wet cork. In order to imi-
tate the song of bird the cork must
be moved with a varying rapidity. now
slowly. now rapidly. and abrupt stop
pages must intervene. The experiment
can be made more simple by rubbing
an ordinary bottle with a piece of cork.

Normal Notes.

President Brier has been reading
to the school the past week for gen
eral exercises his lecture on "Haunts
and Homes of British Authors. !"
A visit paid by him to these differ
ent homes makes the descriptions
of, the scenes very interesting.
The final rhetoricals for the year
were delivered on Tuesday of last
week as follows: Soap" Miss Mae
Purves; A Song of Hiawatha,"
Miss Belle Thompson; Municipal
Ownership, Carl Hanson. For
music, violin solo by Byrne That
cher, with piano accompaniment by
Helen Truesdell, was much enjoyed
by the school. These children are
pupils of the grammar grade.
Professor Sims delivered the COM
mencement address at MERRIAM on
Thursday evening and at Alma on
Friday evening. Professor Fletcher
delivered the address at Spring
Valley on Friday evening.
Last week several ladies of the
faculty enjoyed two days over
land trip to Lost Greek, Maiden
Rock and vicinity. These places
are rich in natural scenery and
abound in beautiful songsters.
Thirty-eight varieties of song birds
were seen and identified by the
ladies.
The garden plots Of the agricul-
tural class show how faithfully the
school farmers labor. Much credit
should be given to Professors Ewing
and Fletcher for the success of their
experiment.
A Fete Gymnastique was given at
Opera Hall June 9 by the physical
training department under the
supervision of Mrs. Lorraine Trues-
dell, the director.

business man in Wisconsin who
wishes to secure an Institute for
his locality during the winter season

small or far from the railroad, is
entitled to an Institute, provided it
is located in a farming district and
has good hall in which a meeting
can be held.
Farmers should talk this matter
up with their neighbors and if the
sentiment seems favorable for an
Institute for their town they should
write us at once for application
