tiers mention is made Of the livery neat
and decent inn" at Rye, at which he
stopped Oct. Is, 1889. The Rye people
gave Gen. Lafayette a great reception
in 1924, when he was touring from
Boston to New York, and the French
hero slept in the same room occupied
by Washington. For generations the
stage coaches from Boston and New
York stopped at the Rye inn and de-
posted travellers over night, many IA
nous Americans being among the
guests.
The action of the Parsons family in
saving the old landmark Is greatly ap,
preciated by residents in the district
and It is said the place is to be filled
with relics and souvenirs connected
with Rye, since it was q parish OF
Great Britain in 1860.

WAYNE MACVEAGH
 DID WRITE LETTER
CONSUL FOR U. S. BEFORE THE HAGUE TRIBUNAL REFUSES, HOWEVER, TO EXPLAIN IT. THERE WAS NO FRICTION.

New York, October 11-wayne Mac yeagh, senior counsel for the United States in the Venezuelan arbitration, ar rived today from Europe.
 Mir. MacVeagh replied in part to a pub lished dispatch from Washington alleging that while at The Hague hc wrote let ter to the executive council of the tri- bunal in which he said that if the mem bers of the court had been lawyers in- stead of diplomats they would have been better qualified to decide the question on it's merits.
 Mr. MacYeagh said: There Is no truth in the story that there was friction. While will not go into the question now, I will say the sitting of the tribunal was agreeable throughout and the arbitrators were most courteous. That dispatch from Washington is most misleading and in- correct. The members of the administra- tive council of The Hague tribunal are diplomats accredited there We differed before the meeting of the tribunal as to some matter of procedure but there was no unpleasantness
 MT. MacVeagh admits that a letter had been written on the subject, but of that he said: Send a copy of that Washing ton dispatch to my home at Bryn Mawr, Pa, and l will go into the matter later.'
 Speaking of the tribunal later he said; The counsel for the other nations will make their arguments for the blockading nations-Great Britain, Germany and Italy and after that six more arguments will be for our side. l hope Judge Pen field, the solicitor for the state depart ment will have a chance to argue After all have been heard the tribunal will consider the case"

CHRISTMAS IN ETHIOPIA

Paris, October 17.-United States Consul General Skinner of Marseilles, who ar rived at Havre on La Touraine last night, is now in Paris making final preparations for the United States governments expe- dition to Abyssinia He expects to start for Marseilles in about a week. One of the ships of the United States eastern squad ron will take NTr Sknner's party to Jibutil The French government has granted authority for a guard of twenty United States marines to land on and cross the French Somali coast. Thence MT. Skinner and his party with the ma rines will proceed with a caravan to the Abyssinian capital, Adis Abeba.
 Mr. Skinner said today to the correspon- dent of the Associated Press:
 We expect to spend Christmas at the capital of the Ethiopian empire, and I hope to return to my post at Marseilles by the first of February next. Our mission is three-fold. including opening diplomatic relations, the presentation to Emperor Menelik of an invitation to visit the St. Louis exposition, and to make scientific investigation in behalf of the agricultural department. Naturally, I am most hope ful of obtaining information which will stimulate American exports and extend our commerce in a field where already there is a considerable American trades Although government agents don't make trade, they can prepare the way, and by of fo faI treaties can lay down the foundation for maintaining and extending trade through a long period. Without a governmental understanding, private commercial enter prises in new country like Abyssinia are necessarily limited
 Already we are selling Abyssinia large quantities of cotton goods, and are buying goat skins hides, carpet wool, ciyet and ivory
 'Abyssinia heretofore has been cut off from the outside world, but French en- terprise recently constructed a railroad and opened commerce to the coast
 T have been informed by the Abyssinian prime minister, Ilg. that the Emperor fully appreciates the aims and purposes of the United States, and the reciprocal advantages of an exchange of views He lS duAiOuS tO hdSASl iiiJ iAlON NiAApiAtS oiiN hO secure an Abyssianian exhibit for St. Louis. The African sovereign has not be- fore exhibited the wonderful resources of his empire.
 "The scientific plans of the expedition are important, as Abyssnia Is the home of many plants and animals which may possibly be introduced into the United States. I expect that Abyssinian coffee will be a particularly suitable plant for Porto Rico'

The other incident in Roekefeller's trip was the cab ride. When he arrived at the Union Depot in Denver, he bargain ed with a cabby to take him to his hotel for twenty-five cents by putting his bag gage on the top of the cab. The papers wrote columns about the stinginess Of the rich man, and they were full of pie lures of him getting in the cab. Through this one little incident his standing in the estimation of the western people dropped to zero. They had not heard about the song incident It was several days after he had left before it became known through the papers, and then public opinion was turned They at once con- cluded that the Sunday school teacher had been misjudged and that he was not so stingy after all. They began to figure out how there might have been any other kind of vehicle present for him to ride in; how he may have had his proxies for the stockholders meeting in his grip and did not want to trust them to un- known people and many other reasonable excuses. The result was that the Rocke- feller stock went up, and, If he should again come to Colorado, he will be given a different kind of reception.
 The song written by the letter carriers tells the story of a gray-haired old miner in his mountain cabin for the bride of his youth It was written on an incident from life. She had died soon after they had married, and he never left the noun tain home again. Many years afterward a body of prospectors found his body in a cabin near Leadvile, where he had just died The composers picture the man after exposure lad crept upon him still clinging to the memory of her whom he loved best The song is being sung all over the west, and the people of the East will soon be joining in the chorus:- "There comes a sob on every breeze, and
 a sigh comes from the trees.
 And the meadow lark now croons sad-
 der lay.
 For the sunlight plays no more round
 my cheerless cabin door,
 Where the silv'ry Colorado wends 1t
 way"

 VITAL FORCE
Is Crushed by Chronic Troubles.

One of the most weakening, undermin- ing troubles. which mankind is heir to is hemorrhoids or piles. The victim is care- less and neglectful of the disease at first because the pain is slight and the bleeding may only occur occasionally, or he may be reassured by the occasional disappearance of the symptoms. And vet if at the very start he had found a rational remedy to soothe the inhama- tfon. he would probably never have had return of this irritating malady.
 Piles may develop at any season of the year. and at almost any age of the vic- time: the abuse of cathartics often causes this dread trouble, and period arrives when the dread of pain at stool becomes so great that the sufferer begins to ne- glect the calls of nature, and the bowels are either forced to retain the feces or are only partially cleared, on account of the suffering attendant upon thorough movement.
 edy which removes the cause. thereby eradieating the disease, and that is the Pyramid Pile Cure, which is sold by all druggists at fifty cents a package; 1t is in the form of a suppository, is applied directly to the parts affected and brings about a complete cure, quickly and pain lessly valuable little book on the cause and cure of piles is published by the Pyramid Drug Co.,, Marshall. Mich. and we advise every sufferer to send for a copy of it.
 People who have suffered from piles for years are often astonished at the instant relief experienced from the first applica- ton. Another important advantage is the fact that any one can use the remedy without detention from business or in- terference with daily occupation
 T feel 1t my duty to recommend the Pyramid Pile Cure. for after suffering ten years with most distressing form of Piles, I am entirely cured, thanks to this remedy. Anyone doubting this can write to Margaret Brady. 156 Whitman St., Cleveland, Ohio"

JOHN R. ROCKEFELLER. JR.,
 MAKES TWO HEARTS GLAD

John D. Rockefeller, IT., mas returned from Colorado convinced that it does not pay for the son of a billionaire to ride in an ordinary 25-cents per passenger cab. What he lost by his ecenonomy, however in the esteem of the people through the cab incident he more than made up when he gave $500 to letter car- riers. The people of the west have been discussing that cab ride, and how the rich young mans heart was touched to the extent of $500 by a song ever since MT. Rockefeller attended the meeting of the Colorado Fuel and Iron company stockholders.
 MT. Rockefeller left New York about the middle of August and started west in special train. He went over the rail- roads controlled by his father and George Gould as far Pueblo. There he began a systematic inspection of the company s property all over the state. Every town camp and mine that he visited was filled with a pretty little ballad .. which the people were singing and whistling. It was a song called Where the Silvery Colorado Wends Its Way" which was written by two letter carriers. After few brass bands had helped to pound the song into the young magistrates ears, he gave in and began to whistle the song himself.
 ;, President Kebler began to joke him about it, and he showed his metal by pulling out five one hundred dollar bills and giving them to MT. kebler with the injunction that they should be used by the composers in making the song popu- lar. Anybody that can make people sing like that" said he, deserves sue cess and I hope they will get it. "The letter carriers named were c. H. Scog- gins and Charles Avril, and they work in the Denver Port office. Where the Silvery Colorado Wends Its Way through the Rockefeller gift has brought them fame and fortune. As soon as the newspapers announced that John D. Rockefeller, Jr., was whistling the song every body in the country be- gan to chime in. Theatrical singers joined the chorus, managers have begun to advertise their star singers as feature ing "the billionaires song" and the $500 is a mere drop in the bucket to what the advertising will be from the incident.

RECORD OF COURTS.

In the circuit court R. F. Hulgan filed suit against the Birmingham Water Works company to recover $20.OOO dam ages for alleged personal injuries.
 The taking of testimony and the argu- ments in the matter of the contempt pro- ceedings against Alexander Dunlap and others in the chancery court were finished yesterday and Chancellor Carmichael now has the matter under advisement.
 An injunction was declared against number of union miners directing them not to trespass on the property of the Alabama Steel and Wire company at Vir- ginia during August, and it is claimed by the company that the injunction has been violated.
 The present matter arises from the or- der of the chancellor directing them to ap- pear before him and show cause why they should not be punished for contempt of court.
