tend the meetings of the district con-
ference of that denomination that are
to be held here at the Auditorium from
April Is to Is. Mrs Bright has the use
of all her faculties and is a remark
ably well preserved woman for her age.
She was born near Richmond. Va, Au-
gust Is, 1889. the same year the Aneri-
can constitution was adopted.
Mrs. Bright is probably one Of a very
few people living in the United States
who recall and who witnessed the dark
ening OF the sun in 1898, when for more
than half a day the sun was darkened
and the day was turned into darkness
as black as any night. lin accordance
with one of the prophecies of the
Bible" she says. Mrs. Bright was A
years old when the falling stars were
seen in 1888 The falling stars were
seen by many of the people of that
time a few of whom are still living,
Mrs. Bright's husband was a, soldier
in the war of 1872. Following the end
ing of the war they lived in Virginia
until the year 1880, when they moved
to Rushville, Ind, on horseback, where
they were living at the time of the
falling of the stars. About the year
1888 the Bright family moved to Brown
county, Indiana.
1t was in Brown county where Mrs.
Bright's husband died in the year 1861,
at the age of 70 years He was born
the same year as Mrs. Bright, and
served in the war of 1872 living long
enough to see the opening of the civil
war
From Indiana Mrs. Bright moved with
her children to Iowa, in the fall of Pres
ident Abraham Lincoln's reelection.
Later they moved to Norton county,
KAN. by means of the prairie schooner,
the journey requiring Is days. After
ward the family moved to Hitchcock
county, Neb., and in 1896 the aged wo-
man. then 106 years old, Travelled alone
by train to Topeka where she has lived
ever since.
1t isn't often that one hears Of a per-
son joining church after the age of 100
years but this is the case with Mrs.
Bright She Joined the United Brethren
church when she was a young girl, AZ
years of age. and two years after her
coming to Topeka, and at the age of los
years she united with the Seventh Day
Adventist church, of which she is still
member
She is the mother of six children, only
one Of whom is still living. Her young
est child died about a year ago at the
age of IS years.
Mrs. Bright has been a very temper
ate woman throughout life, which pro-
baby accounts for her longevity
She has never borrowed trouble. She
has never used intoxicants of any kind
whatever. nor tobacco. and very little
tea and coffee.
And today at the age of nearly 113
years she still remains to a re-
markable degree, the full and entire
use of all her faculties. She is able to
move about with agility for one of ma
ture age and converses intelligently.

Taylor company, which does an extern
sive wholesale liquor business, missed
money and last Tuesday auditors We're
put at work on Shaw's books Some
time before, Chief Inspector Watts of
the bureau of criminal investigation
had been informed, and it was at his
suggestion that Shaw's books We're ex-
am ined.
In the meantime Shaw became fright
ened and last night called on Chief
Watts at police headquarters. After
some beating about the bush he broke
down, made full confession and eX-
pressed willingness to make restitution.
He placed the amount he had taken
from the firm at about $4,000. but the
auditors have reported it as $4,000.
After Shaw left him Chief Watts COM
municated with members of the firm.
and they decided to swear out a war
rant for Shaw's arrest. This was done
this morning,the specific charge against
him being the larceny of $4,000 at diff
ferent times
Members of the firm refused to dis
cuss the affair and referred all inquiries
to Chief Watts. The only thing they
would admit was that they had con-
scented to the swearing out of the war
rant. Watts admitted that Shaw had
been arrested on the warrant by In
spector Dugan. but beyond that would
say little about the case. At police head
quarters the understanding is that
Shaw's wealthy relatives viii restore
the money he took, and that there viii
be no prosecution.

Shaw was not brought into court I'M

years, during the last three of which he

A LONG WALK.
Young Philippine Veteran and Girl
Bride TRAMP" Home From Texas.

r
Philadelphia, April 5.-A tale of true
love, devotion and adventure was told
to sympathetic ears in Broad street
station today. The hero. a short wiry
smooth-faced man of % years, sat in
the waiting room with his pale-faced
bride of 10, unnoticed by the thousands
of pleasure seekers.
For nearly twenty-hours the couple
had made the station their temporary
home on the long journey from San
Antonio, Tex, to New York, having
walked much of the whole distance.
With not a penny for a satisfying meal
they arrived from Pittsburg. When
their story became known the trainmen
started subscription to secure money
enough for the transportation to New
York.
The hero of the story is Samuel Shat
kin. When he was scarce past Is ne
enlisted in the Seventeenth United
States artillery, which went to the
Philippines. Last summer the Seven
teenth artillery was ordered home. and
went into barracks at Fort Sam Hous-
ton, near San Antonio
In Texas he met the sweetheart of
his youth Cecilia Linn, who had moved
to the Lone Star state, and they We're
married. When discharged he was Iur-
nished with transportation for one to
New York, and he did not have enough
money to pay his wife's fare.
They determined to make the journey
the best way they could, so on March 10
they started north. They reached St.
Louis by train and walked from there
to Chicago. Their story got them food
and shelter from point to point. Late
this afternoon the plucky man and wife
were put on a train for New York,
enough money having been raised to
buy them tickets

PARTNERSHIP WITH GOD.
the ThOuEht of Gods For
bearance with Mem

The example of Gods forbearance
and the incentive Of His trust help to
prepare us for that self-control and
patient waiting which are perhaps the
most difficult arts of living. Preach
ers of the strenuous life often forget
that for one who dares to act there
must be many who are compelled TO
wait and to endure. tits not the charge
which commanders dread for their
commands, it is the waiting before the
word TO charge is given. Action re-
heveS the tension Of the nerves q nd oc-
cupies the thought. The example Of
Gods patience is not in itself a suff-
cient incentive in our time of need.
God waits because He knows. He sees
the end from the beginning and is
never tempted to gather unripe fruit
as we so often are He asks us to be
sharers OF His patience and by the
exercise of faith. We can wait be-
cause we believe. He tursts us In the
partnership of work and waiting am.
we renounce and have patience be-
cause we trust Him for the end He
promises.
So our patience becomes more than
trial-it becomes an opportunity of
faith. IF God is patient In what seems
the hating progress of His kingdom.
If He endures the Sights and insults
of His children; we whom He has made
His fellow workers cannot be impa-
tent without refusing Him the trust He
gives. 1t is trial, the hardest trial for
all active souls, but TO be called to
hard and special trial is a proof of spe-
ciaf confidence, God honors every
man to whom He gives this oppor-
tunity of patient faith
This incentive of our partnership
with God hghtens the burden of our
waiting and arms us TO endure. It is
easier to be patient for another's
sake than for our own Where we
might yield, the thought of one who
loves and trusts us and will suffer for
our yielding makes us strong. It is
we'll to keep before our minds the
thought that God is with us and de-
tends us, but never to the exclusion of
the other thought that God depends
upon us for His work and patience in
the earth.
10 the world God is the invisible and
we are the visible partners of the holy
and interesting life. God is patientb be-
cause He desires repentance and re-
turn. 1t is for us to lok on men as He
looks, with recognition of their infinite
worth, their infinite possibilities. If
and so far as we can gain His point of
view, it will be possible for us to love
our enemies because He loves them,
and TO pray for those who despit efully
use us because we see in them an ele-
'nent of possible and Christlike broth
erhood in the enduring life.-Boston
