The Leader hung out its fine new
transparent sign, illuminated from
within by an electric light, for the
first time on Saturday night. The
swinging doors and panels at their
sides have been ornamented with cost

name of the resort in sunken, enam-

to the appearance of the front.

There are two opinions as to the
future of the isthmian canal. One is
that the President will promptly re-
open negotiations with Nicaragua and
Costa Rica; the other that he will
permit the whole matter to drift for
some time at least, and probably wiz
wait until Colombia approaches the
subject upon reasonable lines. While
Il is impos ible TO predict Mr.. Rocse-
velt's future course. it is the opinion
q many persons well posted on the
subject that no move will be made
locking to the construction Of a canal
by the Niearaguan route, which is re-
garded as entirely impraeticable by
many of the most efficient engineers.

AN IMPORTANT VISIT.
Russian Foreign Minister and
Suite Arrive in Paris.

Paris, Oct 2S-Count Lamsdorff, the
Russian foreign minister, arrived here
today accompanied by a numerous suite
N Delcasse, the French minister for
foreign affairs was at the railway sta
tion to extend a personal greeting to
the Russian minister The official char
acter OF the visit was shown by the
presence at the station of NJ Mollard
chief of the protocol Prince Ouroussofi,
the Russian ambassador; Prince Orlom
and other members of the Russian en-
bassy were also present After greet
3ngs had been exchanged, Count Lams-
dorff was escorted to the Continental
hotel. During the day many calls of
courtesy were exchanged, the important
conferences between NJ. Delcasse and
Count Lamsdorff, being deferred until
later The programme of the visit has
been changed so as to include a grand
dinner at the Elysee palace tomorrow
night in honor of Count Lamsdorff. M
Delcasse will give dinner to the count
on the following Friday.
The visit of Count Lamsdorff absOrbs
the attention of the public and the press
who attribute to 1t even more important
political significance than to the visits
of King Edward and King Victor En-
manuel to Paris. The newspapers gen
orally agree that the foreign minister
will discuss the eastern and far eastern
questions but it is said in authoritative
~@@O -
far east is not likely to occupy so much
attention as expected since Admiral Al
exieff, the Russian viceroy of the far
east, has been given practically supreme
authority over the Russian-J japanese sit
uation.
The Macedonian situation certainly
will be gone over and some important
details of the ussian-AuStrian note to
Turkey will be considered. M. DeIcasse
is DESTROYS of having France represented
on the commission of control which is
TO carry out the reforms in Macedonia,
but the note presented to the porte does
not contemplate representatives of any
powers except Russia and Austria.
Among the leading officials a strong
feeling prevails that the main result Of
the visit of the Russian minister will be
q Strengthening of the bonds of the
Franco Russian alliance. This is con-
uidered to be most desirable, because
small groups here and in Russia are
opposed to the alliance. Governmental
influences here and in Russia are
strongly favorable to the continuance
and to the extension of the alliance and
ct is expected that public and private
expressions during the present visit win
emphasize the permanency of the alli-
Rnce.

time.
The next day Callahan and Kelley
were seen twelve miles north of Green's
burg where they hired a man to drive
them to Lewis, in Edwards county,
where they boarded train for Wichita.

This led to the arrest of Callahan. 1t

he was bound over to the district court,

with the object of inhicting as much

holding it stationary until hypothetical
reinforcements should arrive and enable
him to bag the entire outfit.
An attack on the head of the CONVOY

the infantry went forward to open UP
the road the troops pressed in as close

the wagons. Lieut.. Colonel Lough-

lots but are country property.
The legislature vacated Boston

the lots, and when the back taxes
amount to good deal. The state does

REWARD FOR KINDNESS.
Mrs. George to Get 100000 of Ped
dler's Fortune.

New York, Oct. 2S.-Through a settle
ment about to be made. Mrs. William
George of this city is to receive $780, 900
of the estate of 81, 900, 900 left to her by
Macmillan Herschel. once a tobacco
peddler. HerSchel came here from Ger
many about 40 years ago with only a
small sum to tide him over until he got
foothold here. On the steamer he met
Mr.. and Mrs. William SimOns, the par
ents of Mrs. George, and they struck up
an acquaintance HerscheI became a
peddler of cigars. Then he opened a
little tobacco store on the East side.
He slept in the store and lived on a few
cents a day Fifteen years ago he had
enough thousands saved up to give up
the store. After that he sought brokers'
offices, and made shrewd investments.
From that day he landed until his death
he kept on accommodating money.
He lived in a hall bedroom, ate in the
cheapest restaurants and often walked
down to the financial district to save
car fare. But he kept up his acquaint-
ance with the Simonses. When their
daughter, now Mrs. George, was married
q years ago he gave her away. Last
summer his visits suddenly ceased and
Mrs. George, going to look for him,
found him i'll in his ROOM She had him
removed to ST. Luke's hospital and Wis
tied him there every day.
When he died she was at his bedside
Just before the old man died he gave
her the key to a safe deposit box IN the
Mercantile Trust company and told her
that he had securities there which he
wanted her to have, as she had been his
only friend. Mrs George took the key
and told her story after the old mans
death to Lawyer Lorenzo Semple. The
box was not opened, but in old Her
chefs room was a list of the securities
in it, They were nearly all railroad
bonds, classed everywhere as giltedged
and valued, according to the market
then, at $780, OO There was also $500 in
the bank of America. On Mr., Semple )
advice Mrs. George began a search for
possible relatives before opening the box.
An uncle, two nephews and two nieces
were discovered in Europe. All of them
are wealthy. They had never corre-
sponded with Herschel and some OF
them had forgotten him.
Adolph Herschel, one Of the nephews,
is now here and by arrangement he ana
Lawyer Semple have been appointed
temporary administrators OF the estate.
The surrogate has ordered that notices
to creditors of the estate shall be pub
lished and on December 1 the deposit
box shall be opened.
1t was learned that Mrs. Georges
share will be about one-fifth of the
estate.
