Even down to the end of the fifteenth

A crowd had gathered at small ur-
chin's cry Of fight" and just as stur-
dy was preparing quietly to depart
policeman stepped up and marched
both victor and victim off to the sta
tion-house.
No one had heard woman's scream
from behind the closed blinds of the
little house opposite, but Mary had
seen both the "Personap' and her
avenger. A strange, new light burned
in her eyes as she paced the floor, long
ing for morning.
Early the next day, Mr.. Stevens, the
foreman Of the composing-room, was
wanted at the telephone.
A puzzled expression spread over his
face as he heard his absent typeset-
ter's embarrassed request that he come
down to the district police station. A
cab was soon speedily covering the
distance, and the newspaper man was
received with great Difference at head
quarters. Yes; the prisoner had vio-
lently assaulted man, without prov
ocation. OF course, If he was q friend
Of Mr.. Stevens it would be all right;
in fact, he could go right along with
him now.
The culprit was summoned and
blinked sheepishly out of two very
black eyes at his chief, who was laugh
ing heartily.
What has come over my steady
right-hand man, I wonder?' But
Sturdy was being piloted out to the
cab and had no time to explain.
At the entrance they almost COL
lided with a young girl, looking very
much embarrassed. Sturdy stopped,
looked helplessly first at Mary, then
at his rescuer, who felt there was
something very important happening.
"Mr. Stevens" said sweet even voice,
"Sturdy and are going to be married
| very soon, and seeing that he has been
with you for SO long, and so fond of
you, knew you would like to know"
So Mary and her sadly damaged pa
tient were driven home in the cab
and Mr.. Stevens chuckling audibly,
jumped on a car. He made straight
for the Office Of the proprietor, where
his counsel was much valued; emery
ing a few minutes later with a letter
In his hand which read:
Mr.. Sturdy McQuinn:
Dear Strive take pleasure in send
ing you the enclosed check for $500,
In acknowledgment of your Is years of
faithful service on our paper.
We trust you will soon recover from
your slight illness, and report for work
as usual, with an advance of IS a week
in salary. We remain, very truly
yours.

Ing been appointed to that post in 1880.
But 1t was in Spain, before the out,
break OF hostflities between that coun-
try and the United States, that Minis
ter Bowen gained the especial expert
ence which will stand him in good
stead In the Venezuela imbroglio. He
first went to that country in 1890, be-
Ing appointed consul at Barcelona by
President Harrison; In 1895 President
Cleveland made him consul general.
barcelona was the scene Of manifes-
tations of hostility toward the United
States In March, 1896. The feeling
was aroused by. the passage by the
Senate of the Morgan resolution, which
recognized the Cuban insurgents A
mob OF several thousand persons gath
cred In front of the United States con-
sulate In Barcelona, and with shouts
and excavations demanded the destruc-
ton of the building and the death Of
the occupants. Consul General Bow
en- appeared at the entrance and defied
the mob, which dispersed in a short
time without harming anyone, and do
ing little damage to the edifice. Mr..
Bowen was the last representative Of
the United States to leave Spain at the
time OF the actual outbreak of HOSTILE
ties. After the close Of the Spanish
American war he was preparing to re.
turn to his post at Barcelona when
made Minister to Persia.
Minister Bowen was born in Brook
lyr IN 1866 and is distinguished as q
literary man Of excellence and Il poet
OF considerable power. He is six feet
and three inches in height, of athletic
build and great personal prowess. He
speaks French Spanish, German and
italian fuently and is thus we'll
equipped for his present post.

Putting Up a Boys Lunch.

A recent writer-and she writes as
one whom any boy would love-tells
how she saw a mother put up lunch
for her boy to take to school, and then
she tells very prettily how daintily she
would have put up that lunch, and I
know she would do just as she said
But she didn't go far enough. Now, If
I were going to put up lunch for a
boy ID years old, I wouldn't take lit
tie tin pail nor yet neat little covered
basket; would just take the market
basket, If the family wasn't going to
use 1t that day. and would cut up a
loaf Of bread, and trim of every bit of
crust to keep the boy from lying about
it, and telling me that he ate it and
didn't IRE it over the fence when he
came home. would cut that loaf into
slices and spread on the butter until
it began to fall off, then I would stack
on the sugar as long as it would hold.
Then I would load in a couple of links
of sausage and some slabs Of ham, a
dainty cluster Of 'hard-boiled eggs-say
half a dozen-all the cake there was in
the house, and fill up the rest of the
space with pie, and then stuff two of
his pockets full of apples to eat during
school hours, and fill the rest of his
pockets with nuts, and give him 5
cents to buy ''taffy." Then If that boy
came. home at 4 o'clock and said he
didn't have enough luncheon and
couldn't he have a piece, l would give
him the keys to the cellar, cupboard,
pantry, cake chest, and fruit closet,
and, yielding to dark despair, go out
to the barn and hang myself. We
were boy myself, ce-Burdette.

URGED TO GROW NATIVE SILK.

State Biologist OF North Carolina Dis
tributing Mulberry Trees.
There Is q new chapter In the awak-
ening movement for growing native
American silk In the South, begun by
Gerald Mccarthy. biologist Of the
North Carolina Department OF Agri-
culture, at Raleigh, N. G. The State
Is arranging to furnish free mulberry
trees to farmers who will experiment
in raising silk. ALL over the State of
North Carolina Mr.. Mccarthy is scat
tering this circular:
The first seasons experience in silk
growing In North Carolina has proved
a most gratifying success. 1t has DEM
onstrated that the women and chill
dren Of the State may, by light and
interesting work during six weeks Of
early summer, earn, without interfer-
ing seriously with their ordinary du-
ties, at least $50. Those who can de-
vote more time to the work may earn
much more.
ITO place silk growing upon perma-
nent basis we must increase the out
put Of silk cocOons to a volume which
will attract to the silk reelefs and
weavers, thus creating home market
first and most necessary step is to in
crease the available supply Of silk
worm food. We must plant mulberry
trees until each farm suited for this
kind of work has at least 100 trees.
Every farm having dry soil, lying be-
tween Goldsborough and Statesyille or
Asheville, can successfully grow silk.
I'm order to encourage the planting
of the mulberry the State Department
of Agriculture will distribute among
the farmers Of North Carolina in lots
Of fifty and one hundred rooted seed
ling trees Of the varieties best suited
for feeding the silkworm. Not more
than 100 will be sent to one person.
'Silk growing will prove valuable as
nature study and a remunerative art
in schools and is well worth the at
tention of all who have supervision
over educational institutions. 1t is also
well adapted for charitable institu-
lions. Public institutions which wish
to experiment with silk growing will
be supplied with trees"
North Carolina Is only one Of the
possible States for the growing of silk,
this scientist says, according to the
New York Times. He expects wide
range for it's production before many
years, far beyond the confines Of the
Southern belt.

GAY OLD DECEIVER.
Washington Girl Claims Senator PIatt Prom
ised to Marry Her.

( 4 p \ 3 i ~ y r D. ( K
Washington, Oct. I4.-Miss Mae C..
Wood left Washington yesterday ac-
companied by legal adviser, and a
hundred or more tender letters, to dis
cuss matters with Senator Thomas C.
Plat, whose engagement to marry Mrs.
Lillian T. Janeway on Thursday was re-
Gently announced
Miss Wood is clerk in the postoffice
department, whittier she was transferred
from New York about eighteen months
ago under the patronage Of the New
York senator. incidentally she took a
trip to Europe for the benefit OF her
health and many OF the senator's letters
were indited to her while away. She
also has other amatory nlissives, which
if they do not absolutely express a
promise to marry, would be strong cor
roborative evidence OF verbal agree
|ment.
Last summer Miss Wood was busy
preparing modest trousseau and gave
her intimate friends to understand that
her iance was the venerable senatorial
EWidoWcr.
When the engagement to Mrs jane
way was announced, Miss Wood at first
treated the matter as a canard, but
when convinced OF its truth she immed-
lately took legal advice.
