Nebraska city.

Undaunted by the difficulty which
Bishop Potter of New York is having
in getting money to carry on con-
struction of the great caInedral there,
Bishop Olmsted of the Colorado Epis-
copa1 diocese is planning a similarly
notable structure in Denver. 1t will
be begun in November next and his
plan is that only a small portion that
can be used be now erected and ad-
ditions made in subsequent years. His
idea is similar to that of Bishop Pot
ter and Bishop Doans of Albany to
erect building which it may take $50
years to complete, not to be parish
church, but center of congregation
for the whole diocese.

There has been much argument and
a long contest to decide which town
should be the capital of Alaska, but
there has never been any dispute
about Seattle being it's metropolis.
This hillside city is as much a part OF
the north as if it were in the heart of
it, yet it takes longer to go to the
boundary line than it does to go from
St Paul to New Orleans. When they
wish to hold convention the people
rof Nome meet the residents of Juneau
in Seattle, which, as matter of COM
parative distances, is about the same
as if the people of Boston were to go
to Atlanta, Ga, to confer with folks
from Los Angeles, Cal

space to Alaskan matters as they do

parison, is about as odd as if the

EuIoqy of Queen Alexandra.

President Loubet of France says
that in the presence of Queen Alexan-
dra one forgets to look at other wom-
en- "who may be twice as beautiful and
not half her age. AS for her grace, it
is astonishing. She makes me think
of a queen of old France. Where did
she learn that superb graciousness of
bearing which clothes her as with a
garment? Surely not in. that. sleepy
little Danish court she came from! We
have women in France who are proba-
bly, better dressed, but we have none
who possess her supreme elegance.
She is royal from top to toe"

upon her back, she still lacked $40
OF having enough money to pay her
way to Seattle. She obtained the bal
ance by cutting off and selling her
hair.
Arriving here, she could go no fur
tner. She was too weak to seek en-
ployment and too proud to beg. She
went to bed in a cheap lodging house
and was soon SO alarmingly ill that
physician was called. When he
came she was standing upright in bed,
holding an imaginary wolf at bay.
See his white fangs and his long.
lolling tongue" she cried. His red
eyes have followed me over the snow
until they burn into me-hear the
sound of his stealthy feet treading
after me-always after me-" The
doctor quieted her, but his trained
eye soon discovered that he had a
fatal case. The unfortunate woman
mad no money, but she was treated
kindly.
She fought death bravely enough,
but the vital spark sank lower and
lower. 'Oh, God, be good to me and
let me go back to Indiana" she would
sob, and then she would be out in the
snow again, alone with the wolf,
stumbling, falling, ever as she ran 1t
was heart-breaking to see her thin
hands choking the pillow in the delu-
sion that she had the wolf by the
throat
At last she turned her pretty head,
cropped of it's luxuriant hair, and
said: Its no use, doctor, 1 give up.
There isn't any more fight left in me
the north has conquered me- But
when you send word to the folks in
Indiana, doctor, be sure to tell them
| was a good woman to the end; tell
them 1 was true to poor dead Harry
and to them and to myself. A woman
can lose everything, you know. doctor
even her loved ones and her life.
and still be rich in her purity. I've
been terribly cheated in the game of
living, but I've played fair and clean

When the physician told the news

losing fight, the eyes of both were
wet, and the paper next morning con-
tanned fiaring head line which read

Pronunciation of MaeterIinek.

The correct way to pronounce the
name of Maeterlinck, the author and
dramatist, is as though it were spelled
'Mahterlink," not Mayterfink, or Met
erlink, as it is variously called. The
French pronounce it Mayterlink be-
cause the sound of ae in French is "a, -
but in Belgian French the ae is pro-
nounced .ah." Maeterlinck is Bel
gian, having been born at Client in
1864. He has been styled THE Bel
gian Shakespeare" 1t was in 1890
that he first became famous upon the
production in Paris of his play, La
Princesse Maleine-"

His pride is boundless. His faith

and his confidence in the institutions
of his locality make MIN eloquent as

l. is fitting that the spirit of the

Seattle fell 100000 short of securing
the contract the build battleship for
the government, the citizens raised
that sum within a week, presented it
to the shipbuilder and landed the con-
tract.
When the people of Alaska need
financial aid for some deserving

About fifty strong, they have bought

Efee, of Bishop daIloway's Address,

Jackson, Miss, Fen. 3th--Although
the campaign is now only in the early
stage Of its development, it is general
ly-believed that Bishop Galloway's
strong decoration in opposition to statu-
tory prohibition movement in Mississip-
pi means the death lnell of the issue,
and in many quarters is is taken as as
surance that the effort to make all can
didates for office, and particularly the
aspirants for seats in the Legislature,
to declare themselves on the question
will fall fiat.
Bishop Galloway has always been re-
cognized as Mississippi's leading influ-
enee, and since the early SOS he has
been a potential factor in the anti-saloon
crusade in the State, being the leader in
every local option fight, and tits stated
that many Of the dram shoplaws now on
the statute books we're drafted with his
pen before 1t was introduced. His oppo-
sition, ,therefore,in the present campaign
will have telling effect particularly
among members OF the Methodist church
who. are even now greatly divided on
the subject, as was shown by the close
yoteiby which the statutory prohibition
movement was adopted at the Natche7
conference session. The most influen-
tial members of the Methodist clergy
hold views coinciding with Bishop Gal
loway on the subject, and the prohibition
case will gain but little support from
this source.
Atpresent the fight is headed largely
by the Baptist, but the other church de-
nominations are not taking an active
hand in the campaign, believing with
Bishop Galloway that it will have ten
dency to bring prohibition into politics
and cause undesirable friction and brck-
ering throughout the summer.
The opponents of statutory prohibition
coukted strong on declaration frt m
Bishop Galloway, and they have MOI
been disappointed, for his utterance il
straight forward, and already its wide
spred effect is 30 apparent that the indi.
cations for large attendance at the
mass convention in jackson on the 17th
are not SO rosy as they have been in the
past.
About twenty counties have this fol
selected delegates to the jackson con.
vention, and quite number have pos
poned action for several days, the friend

TON or THE ECHO.

1t affords the management Of The Echo
much pleasure to announce to the peo-
pie of Bay st. Louis and Hancock coun-
ty that it has decided and made arrange
ments whereby mammoth edition of
this paper, profusely illustrated aud
bound in magazine form, viii be issued
some time within the next two or three
months, to emanate from our new news
paper office building on the corner Front
and State streets. It was our intention
some months ago to get out this special
edition, which will be entirely separate
from our regular one, around the holiday
season, but it was found not only i'm
practicable but utterly impossible TO un-
dertake so large work in our present
all too small quarters. For this work
The Echo has been particularly fortu-
nate in securing the services OF Messrs.
II. L. and e. ii. Lyons, of Laurel, Miss,
two young gentlemen who are specialists
in the work, and who come TO Bay ST.
Louis at our special solicitation. They
will collect and compile the data neces-
sary which will make this edition worthy
OF life preservation and will attend to tn
advertising department. 1t is safe 10
say nothing of the like has ever been at
tempted in this section. Much history
abounds in Bay ST. Louis, its undevelop-
ed resources are wonderful and as a
summer and winter resort it has no
equal. These will be given special at
tention and the city will never have re-
ceived d better and more representative
advertisement than this proposed edition
with circulation up in the thousands.
We propose to give Logtown and Pearl

nifty to be represented in this edition.
