Do Good--It Pays.

A Chicago man has observed that,
Good deeds are better than real estate
deeds-some of the latter are worthless.
Act kindly and gently, show sympathy
and lend helping hand. You cannot
possibly lose by it" Most men APP
preciate a kind word and encourage
ment more than substantial help.
There are persons in this community
who might truthfully say: "My good
friend, cheer up. A few doses Of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy will rid
you of your cold, and there is no danger
whatever from pneumonia when you use
that medicine It always cures. /
know it for it has helped me out many
a time" Sold by Richard Gibson.

Boston, Oct. 3 The Chinese section
of the city had its first murder last night.
One Chinaman is dead, two are in hos
pitaIs wounded and two others are lock-
ed up charged with the murder. From
what can be learned feud has existed
for some time between the Hep Sing
Tong and an older organization. The
highbinders in this case have done the
work for a gambling organization OPP
posed to the Hep Sing Tong, which, ii
is claimed, has been giving information
to the police that has caused the arrest
of members of the gambling society.
Wong Chong, who did the shooting, and
Charley Chinn, his accomplice, were ar
rested. The latter had in his possession
a short axe not over foot long, with a
carved handle and a nickled blade
sharpened to a razor edge and controlled
bv spring.

INTELLIGENCE received during the
week indicate that the backbone OF the
revolution in Macedonia is broken.
Turkish troops are gaining the upper
hand everywhere, several insurgent
chiefs have been killed or wounded and
Others are abandoning the struggle and
fleeing to the frontier The insurgents,
however, are striving to enlist the
sympathies of other nations, and with
this end in view are sending out dis
patches alleging that villages have been
burned by the Turks, the male inhabi-
tants massacred and the women i'll
treated 1t is generally believed that
both the Turks and Macedonians have

where they have had their own way,
and before there is any Intervention on
the part of other nations searching in
vestigations will doubtless be made.

KING GEORGE DEMOCRATS. Thurs
day was a lively day in King George.
Prominent representatives of both the
democratic and republican parties were
present. Among the former was Con-
gresham John F. Rixey, who used his
influence to Undue the democrats to settle
upon one candidate for each Office. The
democratic county committee held a
meeting and recommended a conference
of candidates, so far as to have only one
candidate for each Office. The result
was that the candidates all conferred and
agreed to primary. The committee
was notified, and Saturday, October 10,
was fixed upon as the time for the pri-
mary.

IT Is now said that William Rookie
Teller, the Standard Oil millionaire, is
threatened as the next victim of the
assassin who slew Orlando p Dexter
in the Adirondacks two weeks ago. The
threat came in the form of newspaper
clipping containing an account Of the
Dexter murder, on the margin Of which
was written the menace Of the sender.
1t is an old saying that people "sworn
for" always live longest. This may be
fulfilled in Mr.. Rockefeller's case. But
at the same time it is exasperating to
realize that man is threatened with
assassination for no'other cause than the
fact that he is a rich man.

THE Panama canal company is main-
tanning force of l, 500 men on the
canal construction. This force is re-
quired to hold the concession, by the
provisions of the agreement with the
Colombian government. Agents of the
canal company say that they will now
put larger force at work and hurry the
waterway to completion if the United
States will indicate that it does not de-
sire to continue negotiations for the pur
chase of the canal The United States
should let the canal alone, in which event
it would be constructed by the Panama
company. Should this be done the peo-
pie of this country would be saved sew
eral hundred million of dollars for
building the canal and untold amounts
for maintaining it. Then, too, it would
avoid entanglements that would be sure
to follow the ownership of canal
through foreign territory.

A ROYAL RECoNciLIATIoN.-As a re-
suit Of a reconciliation recently brought
about between Emperor Francis Joseph
and the King Of Belgium concerning the
latter's attitude towards his daughter,
Princess Stephanie, whose first marriage
was with the Austrian Emperor's second
son, the late Archduke Rudolph, King
Leopold will arrive in Vienna in the
middle of this month on a visit to the
Emperor The announcement causes
general surprise.
After the TRAGIC death Of her first hus-
band, the Archduke Rudolph, in 1899,
Princess Stephanie was married for the
second time to Elemer Count Lonyay, in
1900. This marriage was against the
wishes of King Leopold, who refused to
permit it to be legalized. He has been
bitter against his daughter since, and at
the time of the death of the Queen OF
Belgium the King ordered her to leave
spa, where she had gone tomourn at the
bier Of her mother.

The SEABOARD AIR LINE.-The big
decline in Seaboard Air Line issues, fol-
lowed by the announcement of the em-
barrassment of the banking houses OF
Williams and of Middlendorf, the head
of the former president of the railroad
and of the latter its vice president, has
centered attention upon those issues.
The break in the securities of Thursday
was followed yesterday by an additional
break of several points in common and
preferred stocks, and Of a somewhat less
decline in the bonds, both on the local
exchange and on the New York curb,
and variety of reasons was advanced.
In many quarters it was believed that
J. p. Morgan had been a heavy seller
and that concerted drive had been el
fected by certain New York influences
against the Williams and Middendorf
houses. 1t was also rumored that the
Morgan interests were engaged in the
effort to secure control of the Seaboard
system, while in otherquarters Standard
Oil interests we're given the credit for a
similar effort.
A dispatch from New York states:
"Tn some quarters it was reported that
the attack upon Seaboard was instigated
by the house of J. p. Morgan ~ Co.,
who are known to be in close alliance
with the Southern Railroad but it was
said, on the other hand, that Morgan
never yet was known lead a movement
for the depression of stock in an estab-
lished railroad property. 1t is said that
his interests have rather been in the
direction of bulling stocks.
''At the Seaboard Air Line offices, 10
Wall street, it was said that the road was
not affected in any way by the temper
airy troubles of Mr.. Williams and Mr..
Middendorf. Ladenburg, Thalman &
Co. said that there was no statement to
be made in regard to their syndicate's
plan for an Independent control of the
Seaboard.

SHORT IL HER ACCoUNTs.-Marie
Layton johnson, 20 years old, the wife
OLA. NJ. Johnson, dentist of Larch-
mont. n. Y, with an office in New
York, WIS arrested last night on a war
rant charging herwi the grand larceny
of 80, 600. The total amount OF her al
legged deIalcatons, however, may, 1t Is
said, amount to $50, 0C0. The complain
ants are officers of tie United States
Playing Card Company. Mrs. Johnson,
whose maiden name was Merle Layton,
was bookkeeper in the Office, and in adj
dition acted as private secretary to Mr..
R. II. McCutcheon, the manager She
was married to Dir. johnson in 1901,
but did not leave her position after her
marriage. In April last discrepancies
are said to have been found in her ac-
counts, according to the story given out
by Inspector McClusky, and an examina-
ton is said to have revealed a shortage
of so. 600 between January ! and April
/ , in the accounts of the New York office.
Mrs. johnson was discharged from the
employ of the company in April, when,
Inspector McClusky says. she admitted
delalcations Of 80, 500. 1t was thought
at that time that her husband, DIR. John
son, who has a large practice. would
make up the loss, but this was not done.
Later Investigations into both the New
York and Cincinnati accounts, it is said,
show the defalcations now amount to
$33, 600. Detectives went to Larchmoni
Thursday night to arrest the woman,
but found her home locked up, and from
neighbors it was learned that all tie
furniture had been packed, apparently
ready for removal. The detectives then
watched DR.. Johnson's Office, on Fifth
avenue, and arrested Mrs. Johnson as
she was leaving in her husbands COM
pany. 1t is said that Mrs. johnson
speculated in Wall street and lost con-
siderable money.
