dean, quickly.

me then? My servants all go to bed at

Ruth and Rachel heard no more.
They fed noiselessly upstairs and re.

"Rachel-Rachel!"

"oh. Rachel, II have an ideal"
About a week later the dean and the
canon came in. AS they were taking
OF their coats In the hall curious
sound struck upon their ears through
the opening door of the drawing room.
"Pingpong! Ping.pong! Ping.pong!"
Good gracious!" exclaimed the dean
with an anxious expression. Those
girls can never be playing ping-pong
in the drawingroom, with all my Sew.

He FASTENED, in alarm. towards the
door, Canon Battersby following.
The sight that met his gaze aston.
ished and angered him. There, at the
other end of the room, sat Ruth and
Rachel. There, also sat Charles Bat.
tersby. They were not playing ping.
pong. They were merely seated round
a small table, their attention evidently
taken up with strengthening instru.
ment that stood thereon.
"Ping.pong! Ping.pong! Ping.pong!
Plng.pong! Forty.love."
The dean literally jumped. That
was his own stentorian voice to. life.

Pictures Taken by Mr.. G. w. smith
of Washington.
Mr.. G. w. Smith of Washington, D.
c., is in the city, a guest at the Pu-
laski. MIR. Smith is EN- route home
from a trip through Florida and the
Spanish and French West Indies. He
visited st. Pierre, Martinique, the ILL
fated city destroyed by the eruption of
Mt. Pelee last spring, and has a num-
Der of pictures of the ruins which he
will have enlarged and framed.
Mr. Smith says that very little is be-
ing done towards cleaning away the
debris of the overthrow city, and that
it will never be rebuilt. Hundreds of
tourists are visiting the ruins which.
he says, is one of the most gruesome
spectacles it is possible to imagine.
The lava and dust are still two to
three feet thick in all parts of the
ruins and in many places much deep
er. Visitors find many interesting
souvenirs by scraping away and dig
ging down through the ashes.
The one surviving negro who passed
through the terrible flood of hot ashes
and lava. a prisoner in a dungeon and
suffering torture from the heat before
being rescued. is included in the col
lection of pictures. The negro, Mr.
Smith says, has been secured by q
Snowman and will be taken to the
Northern resorts this summer and ex-
hibited. The picture Mr.. Smith has OF
him represents a tall, powerful black
with massive chest and limbs. He Is
stripped to the waist and around him
is shown large party of tourists
viewing and taking pictures. The pic
lures are all we'll developed and in
years to come will be valuable souve-

Routine Business of Little Importance
Occupies Time Of Dele

Central Labor union met last night, with
a full attendance of delegates and devoted
its time to routine business of no great
Importance. The legislative committee,
which has been in Lincoln, made it's re-
port in regard to the garnishee and female
labor bills. The committee was unable to
influence the legislature in regard to the
former, but believes that It had a favor
able influence on the latter, which had not
yet come to a vote.

as financial secretary in place of j. A.
Babst, who had rendered his resignation.

laundry workers had a delegation present
and asked for recognition from the central

HOVE TELLS HIS MISTAKE
Tells Second Warders He Thinks Differently
of ROsewater Franchise Ordinance.
WARD CLUB ENDORSES THE MEASURE
Councilman and Manager of street
Railway Fail to Attend the Meet
ing of the Omaha View
Improvement Club.

At the meeting OF the South Side Second
Ward Improvement club last evening Coun-
Gilman Hoye declared he would vote for
the placing of the Rosewater franchise or
dinance before the people, to be voted upon
by them, and the club passed resolutions
requesting that such be done by the council.
Both Councilman Hoye and City Engineer
Rosewater we're present at the meeting and
were called upon to speak. Mr.. Hoye
stated he had been at all times sincere
in the action he had taken in regard to
this ordinance and its substitute. The lat
ter he had believed the people were In
favor of until two weeks ago, when he
saw that he had been mistaken. The giving
OF the ordinance, he believed, would open
up to Omaha a vast quantity OF cheap
power, which means a saving to Omaha
people and the building of new and ex-
tensive manufactures in the city and its
suburbs. His intention never had been to
balk these purposes. he said, but he had
thought the amended franchise was the
more rapid way Of giving Omaha cheap
electricity. At no time, he said, had he
been accused OF being under obligations
