Leavitt are expected either to-day or

Leavitt
My daughter, l assure you upon my
honor, was engaged to Mr.. Leavitt. and
my wife and l approved of the match.
Ihey went together to entertainments.
ana during the recent summer nights
they sat upon our piazza and acted as
lovers. That trip to the West, when
Mr.. Leavitt painted the portrait of
Mr.. Bryan. l don't understand.
When he left Newport it was with
the understanding that the marriage
would take place early in the fall. 1

gagged counsel Please say that we are
not after money, but want only JUS
tice."
A. L. Leavitt, father of Mr.. Bryans
son-in-law, said that certainly Miss
Cook was nice girl, but that both he
and his wife agreed that she was not
the girl for their son.
we know that he was very attentive
to Miss Cook" said Mr.. Leavitt. "and
he brought her to our house She
dined and lunched with us often 1t
was merely a platonic affair. If he
had been engaged to her he would have
told his mother. from whom he has
never kept secret.
My son was not engaged to Miss
Cook. 1 cannot understand how the
report got about that he was to be
sued by the young lady. He has not a
dollar in the world. What a farce it
would be to sue him for breach of
promise! l do not expect my son and
his wife here for at least two weeks
When Miss Ruth Bryan told her
father that she intended to marry the
artist, Mr.. Bryan came on here at the
tail end of the fashionable season and
conducted himself much like a sleuth
as he inquired into the manner of man
young LeaVitt was. He refused to en-
ter his name on the register at the
New Cliffs Hotel, and made quiet visits
to several of Viewpoints leading citi-
zenS. He returned to Nebraska more
opposed than ever to the proposed
union. but he had to yield to his de-
termined daughter who asserted her
self and married the man of her choice

las his deer-hunting among the hills of
his native country is done with a Saw
age.
Mr.. Cohick is a modest young man,
and talks of his crack shot with as
little bravado as a chap might about
killing pullet by cutting off its head
on the block.
But the truth of the mater is young
Cohick's shooting was remarkable for
accuracy, for at the long range at
which he shot he struck the buck three
time, the last time piercing his heart.
Cohick was on watch in the mountains
north of Salladasburg, while several
members of his party were driving"
He knew the deer had been started,
for the signal was given.
Suddenly, on the slope of the opposite
ridge, he saw the deer, a fine buck
looping along above the low under
brush. The deer halted, with his body
partly hidden behind a stump, and
threw his head up in the attitude of
anxious listening. At that instant
young Cohick, away across the valley,
adjusted his sights at long range and
fired. That ball must have been the
one that grazed the deer's back. for he
convulsively sprang to one side, max
ing clear of the stump.
A second bullet went whizzing across
the valley, and the buck threw back his
head as though struck a powerful blow
with a club. That bullet struck his
head at the base of the antler, and
plowed its way downward across the
skull. But that wound would have
served only to send the now fright
ened deer scampering across the ridge
had not a third shot sent a bullet
squarely through his heart-the very
pink of position to the old hunter. The
buck leaped into the air, lunged for
ward and then fell dead.
He weighed 21S pounds dressed, and
had on his shoulders one of the proud
est heads that buck ever carried. 1t is
doubtful whether the outside world
would ever have heard of young CO.
hicks shooting had not the other mem
bers of his party told of it.
He is but a STRIPPING of a youth, the
son of an old hunter, himself as well
acquainted with a gun and the woods
as a sailor is with the masthead and
the sea. He is a boy of excellent habits,
clear-headed keen-eyed and steady
nerved. He's the kind of youth that
Uncle Sam likes for soldier, and his
long-range practice among the deer in
the hills of Pennsylvania may give him
excellent practice for actual sharp
shooting ir the service of his country
if he's needed again.

Newport, Dec. Thames H. Cook,
father of Miss Mamie Cook, declared
to-day that his daughter was the prom
Used bride of William Homer Leavitt
when Mr. Leavitt married the daugh-
ter of William Jennings Bryan.
Mr. Cook had tears in his eyes as
he told Of LeAvitt's love-making to
his daughter. He is generally utility
man at a big factory here and he came
down from high ladder, from which
he was painting a smoestack, to give
his version of the rumor that his
daughter will sue the young Newport
artist who won Miss Bryan for
breach of promise Of marriage.
Miss Cook is a very pretty girl, small,
dark-eyed and chic-far prettier, the
Newport villagers think, than Mr..
Leavitt's bride. Only to-day she was
out on the street in a suit of drab
corduroy, with hat to match, looking
stunning" and in no way abashed by
her present notoriety. She is TWEEN

Baptist Church, to the faith of which
she recently went from Methodism;

EXPERT OPINION ON
PROFITABLE PUBLICITY.
From the Baltimore American.

From the Baltimore American.
Sidelights on advertising have been
present at the annual banquet of the
Agate Club. at Chicago, where experts
from various cities had been assem-
bled by the advertising representatives
of Chicago newspapers and magazines,
who compose the organization. Aver
age mankind is guided-is the victim
of suggestions" said George E. Vincent,
professor of sociology at the UNIVERSE
ty of Chicago You men have a pro-
found responsibility, for you make the
suggestions. / am glad to say that
you do not wrongfully exercise that
power"
Albert A. Pope, president of the Pope
Manufacturing Company of New York,
gave the following suggestions:
Believe in something, tell the peo-
pie the truth and stick to it.
Don't tell a man more than he will
believe. Make him want what you az
vertise.
BE careful in the selection of names.
A good article often is spoiled by an
injudicious name"
Mr.. Pope said the failure of the
American Bicycle Company, the com
bine, was because it ceased advertising
at critical time.
D. NJ. Lord of Chicago observed that
man might as well expect to main
tain steam in boiler without coal as
to attempt to continue a business ere
ated by advertising after dropping the
advertising.
Charles H. Taylor, editor of the Bos-
ton Globe. defended the Sunday news
paper and the publication of stories
of crime.
THE Sunday newspaper has a place
in literature, he said. I'VE could not
do without it, A paper is printed for
all classes of people, and each class
has eight to the news that especially
interests him. 1t is a mistaken idea
to believe that murder stories either
are wanted or sell newspaper. Only
those with an element of mystery or
those of prominent persons, are used"

Charleston, Aug. 25.-Policeman r.
E. Hutchinson, colored, last night
shot and probably fatally wounded
James Anderson, a desperate negro
criminal. The shooting occurred at
Grant~park, in the suburbs of the
city: a resort frequented by negroes.
Hutchinson was on duty at the park
to preserve order. About IL o'clock
Anderson who was drinking, under
took to clean out the dance hall. He
attacked negro woman, knocking
her down with beer bottle. Hutch
inson was called inside to put Ander-
son out of the pavilion. Anderson
drew Colts revolver, saying this is a
good time for me to kill you, and
covered the policeman with his
weapon. Hutchinson turned as if to
walk away, and, drawing his own
weapon he aimed it at Anderson, Or
dering him to drop his gun, but An
derson advanced upon the ocfier.
Zone of us must die,'' said Ander-
son, as he cooked his pistol Knowing
Anderson to be dangerous negro,
having killed three men in his life,
Hutchinson fired, the ball entering
Anderson's head. He fred a second
time with like effect. The wounded
negro was brought to the city and
sent to the city hospital. His chances
for recovery are slim.

Henaces 10 the Peace of Europe

aThe Suez Canal has been disturb
ing influence on trade, social relations,
and politics. says Emily Crawford,
in Everybody's Magazine. It
stimulated the land hunger Of France
by drawing her nearer to Madagascar
and Indo-Cbina. The Hovas and the
Indo Chinese have as little reason to
bless the name of de Lesseps as the
Egyptian fellaheen who dug the Canal
under lash of taskmasters. Indo-
China, where the working classes are
on far higher plane of thought and
sentiment than those Of Europe, has
been virtually enslaved by the French
conouerors. What remains Of Siam is
threatened with foreign domination.
We may look forward to the Trans
Siberian giving rise to another uni
versal trade-disturbance.
s.This will be the case, too, with
the Euphrates Valley railway. The
German Emperor intended to be the
sole boss of this line, which was to
transport German colonists. a
densely peopled empire that has been
increasing its population at the rate
of 100000 a year can spare enough
subjects to bring the whole of the
Euphrates Valley into cultivation.
But, just row, it would be imprudent
for Germany, single handed, to at
tempt to stem the power of Russia in
that part of the world, much less to
bar her way to the Persian Gulf. Great
Britain, acting alone, could not safely
work railway concession to that sea
from the Mediterranean. Nor could
France. The three powers will have
to pool the scheme; closely united,
tl,ev can succeed. -
