Timothy Dale, the blacksmith, sat be-
side the kitchen table in his tiny cot
tage laboriously penning his first love
letter.
II was strange, indeed he thought,
that he a man who could lift and carry
a hundred pounds without the slightest
effort, should find this such a difficult
task He destroyed sheet after sheet
OF writing paper in disgust at his mis-

only one remained.

he said moodily to himself. "or il can't
be done at all. The stores closed fer

With an effort he settled himself again
to his task. shaking his head obviously.
but when it was at last completed he
scanned it with unalIoyed pride. a faint
flush of triumph mantling his bronzed
cheek.

Sammy was summoned and dispatched
with the all-important missive, and Tim
othy Dale watched his small figure go
ing down the road until the gray even
ing shadows hid it from view. a strange
mingling Of fear and hope in his big
heart.

Major General John G. Bates, q. s,
A., who will be the ranking officer In
the coming series Of army maneuvers
at Fort Riley, Kansas, Oct. Is TO 81, In
which more than LOCO men viii par
hcipate, Is a veteran Of many cam
paigns, having fought In the civil war,
In Cuba and the Philippines.
Besides the large force Of regulars,
regiments from the national guard of
Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska,
Iowa and Colorado will take part In the
maneuvers, making the largest body Of
troops assembled for similar purpose
In recent years.
Fort Riley, which is to be the scene
Of the maneuvers. Is located on the
Kansas and Republican rivers, about
three and half miles from Junction
City, Geary county, Kan, on the line
Of the Union Pacific railroad, and con-
tainS about 10000 acres. AS q result Of
last years maneuvers 1t was found that
for the handling Of large bodies of
troops in the working out Of tactical
problems the present reservation, large
as it Is, was entirely inadequate.
In order to secure additional lands
the military authorities have for the
past year been negotiating with the
landowners In the vicinity of Fort Ri
ley with a view Of increasing the ma
neuver territory by the temporary use
of desirable tracts adjoining the reser-
walton.
The war department has succeeded
in obtaining the written consent of lao
owners, whose aggregate holdings
amount to about seventy square miles,
or 1920 acres. by which they have
agreed to permit the military authori-
ties to enter upon and occupy their
holdings whenever it may become nee
essary to do so in the prosecution Of
the maneuvers this year at nominal
rental Of cents per acre.
By this means the war department
has secured section Of country which
affords every kind and variety of for
nation that could be desired In practic-
ing field operations by troops, consist
ing of plain, high rolling country,
streams, railroads, woods, defiles, ra-
vines, etc. The section lines and farm
roads are exactly such as would have
to be utilized in actual warfare In a
like country, and the houses, separate
ly or clustered in small villages, form
an important part In playing the war
game.

maneuvers at Fort Rlley the greater

James Nj. Barrie, who Is very shy at
social functions or banquets and can
hardly be induced to either converse
freely or utter d speech, Is not above
poking fun at himself. On one occa.
sion there appeared in the Scots OBJ
server a brilliant lampoon in which
Mr.. Barrie was represented as attend
ing a public dinner, keeping every one
in roars of laughter with his unceasing
stream of wit and epigram and finally
ending up by making the speech of the
evening. When certain literary friend
of Mr.. Barrie's saw this wickedly clev-
er piece of satire his indignation knew
no bounds, and he rushed into print
and demanded that the author of this
Infamous article should straightway
disclose himself and be dealt with &C
cordingly. But, alas for the well mean
ing friend, the author was none other
than Mr.. Barrie himself.

II all the threads In the loom of the
weaver of tapestry were alive they
might complain that they are stretched
and twisted in a confused and pattern
less fashion. But the workman would
tell them to trust him and he would
blend them in the end into an exquisite
design. Many human life seems lived
to no purpose and to be only blemish
upon the fair coloring of those with
which 1t Is associated. But the Divine
Workman can turn 1t to good use, and
we may trust Him to do so. Not infre-
quently even here we perceive how
some life, supposed to be stupid and
fruitless, has proved rich In blessing
and even In beauty to some other. Can
we not believe that all lives have their
fitting places and uses in the great de
sign Of the Father? Flowers of rare
beauty often spring up in the midst of
seeming desolation where nobody thinks
of looking for them but God and His
holy angels. -Congregationalist.

ColIett In rine Form.

George H. Collett, the professional BIZ
cycle racer, returned from France re-
Gently and has been astonishing the
patrons of cycle racing by riding in bet
ter form than ever before. Forty-eight
hours after landing here he finished
third 10 Mcfarland and Fem In a
bruising ten mile contest where the
pace was so fast that only a small pro
portion of the riders finished.
Since then he has been In the money
a couple of times, and when he gets
into the game again he should prove a
thorn In the side Of the top notchers In
their search for prize money.
According to Collett, the racing game
abroad is In a very flourlshing condi.
ton. There are about twenty-five first
class men there to our four or five, and
a couple of hundred second class men
there as against our field of about
thirty.
