Nearly three weeks had passed, and
not again in the Majors household had
Pennington's name been mentioned.
But once, alone with his wife, the
Major was leading up to it when she
held up her hands and besought him

There was a dry rasp in the Majors
throat. Don't you think that to say
she is a crank would be hitting nearer
the mark?"
"No, I don't" his wife answered.
"She is not a crank. She is a remarka-
bly, bright woman"
Eyes, she shows it. When q man
does a fool thing he IS weak, off, as
they say; but when a woman jumps
out of the enclosure of common sense

"Yes, that's all right, and there's no

sense says that when you can't help

And so they ceased to discuss the
subject, but like a heavy weight it lay
upon them, and under it they may
have sighed their worry, but they

CHINA'S CONSUMPTION
OF AMERICAN FLOUR
Celestial Empire and Adjacent Coun-
tries Taking 1t in IncIeas-
ing Quantities.

The popularity Of American -four in
China Is attracting attention on both
sides Of the globe The British consul
general at Canton. In a report sent from
China TO London and published in that
city, states that the demand for flour
among the emigrants returned from the
United States is so great that the guam
tity of -four imported in 1902 exceeded
that of 1901 by 1881 1928 pounds. and was
also some 10. 400. 900 pounds in excess Of
the average for the past five years.
From the standpoint OF dollars it may
be added that the value OF American -four
shipped 10 China grew from s57. AL In
1892 to 1921. 252 in 1902; to Hongkong,
from $2,14O. O71 in 1892 10 s4.164.6 93 in
1902. while the shipments 70 Russian
China in 1902 were $149. 669. and to Brit

of -four shipped from the United States
to China and contiguous ports s2,2o7, 5l2
in 1892 and $4,000, 739 in 1902. while the
total value OF all -four exported from the

Louis Bonaparte's Popularity.

A couple of years ago one Of the most
eminent OF the republican statesmen at
Paris, a man who had held high Of
fee, and who, in the natural order OF
things, is likely TO hold 1t again, re-
marked in the course OF converse
ton:
IF Prince Louis Bonaparte landed at
Marseilles today, walked into the near
est barrack and exclaimed L am Gen
eral Bonaparte, of the Russian army;
hold a commission from the Car; now
shoot me II you like there are few
soldiers or officers OF the French army
who would not cry 'vive Iempereur,
and place their services at his disposal
for better or for worse. Our govern
ment-in fact, all responsible people in
France-knows this perfectly"
The statesman was then asked wha,
the Socialists would say to any such
move en- the part Of the prince.
They would accept him--that Is. TIE
bulk of them would. When the prince
was in Paris last spring some twenty
OF thirty Radical and Socialist dele
gates, representative men, every one OF
them, called upon the prince. What he
said 10 them Is unknown. But they
came away deeply impressed. and ever
since they have invariably referred &c

Attacks Cleveland.

While the central Western Democrats
are attacking the tenets of William Jen-
nings Bryan. IL begins to seem that the
Eastern men are developing more or
less opposition to those Of former
President Cleveland. About all who have
been discussing the matter are OF the
opinion that the former President would
make a very weak candidate, even If he
could get the nomination, which many
doubt The latest man to be quoted in
the matter Is former Governor Pattison
of Pennsylvania. Mr.. Pattison made no
attempt to use diplomatic language in
saying that he thought that il would be
a mistake to take I'D Mr. Cleveland for
another term. He is of the belief that
the people Of the United States have no
intention of giving any man a third
term. He also thought Mr.. Cleveland
had weakened his position OF late by his
evasions and reservations. Mr.. Pattison
had no candidate for the nomination,
but. like nearly all OF the important
leaders who have expressed an opinion
so far. he said he would favor anyone
who could unite the party. He thought
Judge Parker. OF New York. could do
this. Mr.. Pattison has been mentioned
as candidate. but in speaking OF his
position the former governor said he
was not after the nomination. He said
he was from the wrong State. and could
not expect II.
Concerning President Roosevelt and
the latter's recent trip throughout the
country. the former governor said the
President had made no impression.
Machine politics, he said. were never SO
powerful as they are at present, and
that the President would have to bow
to them, no matter how popular he
might be with the people.

Important Events.

Two more important moves In poll
tics are announced. one being the cleo
ton of State Chairman J. Taylor Ely
sen. of Virginia. TO succeed the late
Peter J. Otey, as the representative of
the Old Dominion in the Democratic
National Committee. This election was a
victory of the regular Democrats over
the fusionists, and the action recognizes
Chairman George N. Jones and his com
mittee of thirty.
The other matter OF Importance is the
announcement that Representative J. w
Babcock has made a pledge that he is
not going to become a candidate for the
senatorship in Wisconsin before the next
Legislature, thus leaving the field clear
for Senator Joseph Quarles. The pledge
IS said to have been made last week IN
tho Office of Senator SpoOner, who has
been working hard during the last ten
days to straighten matters out. 1t is
said that Mr.. Babcock was loath to give
up his Senatorial ambitions, but Mr.
Spooner showed him that If he desired 10
retain his prestige as a party leader he
would have TO make the sacrifice.

A Hint From St. Petersburg.

Prince Louis Bonaparte, commanding
cavalry division in the Russian army
of the Caucasus, with headquarters at
Tiflis. has Just been invested by the
Gar with the order Of st. Andrew,
which is the Muscovite equivalent of the
English Order of the Garter and Aus
trian Order of the Golden Fleece.
This is regarded on the banks of the
Seine as a hint from st. Petersburg
that the authorities there disapprove
Of the growing intimacy between Eng
land and France, and view with dis
favor the interchange of visits and COM
pllments between King Edward and tho
Chief Magistrate of the French repub-
lie For it cannot be denied that the
rapprochement between England and
France has been accompanied in the
latter country by very distinct wane
of the popularity of the alliance with
Russia
The gift Of the Order of St. Andrew to
Prince Louis Bonaparte. under the cir
cumstances, is looked upon as pointed
reminder that to a great extent the
Car holds the destinies of the republic
in the hollow of his hand, and that he
has but to give a nod in order to sub
jet its existence to a graver peril
than any to which it has been exposed
since it's establishment three and thirty
years ago.

LOndon's Fire Chiefs Advancement.

London has just lost the chief OF its
fire department, Captain Wells. a re-
tired captain Of the royal navy, in
rather peculiar manner. For although
the public at large never dreamed that
he was a politician. he has Just been
appointed by the whips Of the Conserva-
tive Unionist party as the chief agent
of the party, a position which CORE
spends to that OF chairman of the Re-
publican national committee in the
United States As such he will receive
a salary OF $4,000 from the party fund,
which is just double what he was re-
ceiving as chief of Londons great fire
department. Moreover, the post Is other
wise valuable. for Captain Middleton,
whom he succeeds as chief agent, re-
ceived a short time ago gift Of $4,000
from the party, In addition to his sal
airy, in recognition OF his services in
managing two general elections in sucn
manner as to win an overwhelming
victory for his party.
Captain Middleton, like Captain Wells,
is a former naval officer, and has now
accepted the managing dictatorship 81
the company owning the Sir John Maple
furniture business in the Tottenbam
Court Road in London, with a salary OF
s25. 900 a year. Both men have achieved
their distinction by their marvellous tai
ents OF organization, and by their clever
ness in dealing with men of every kind,
and II is TO Captain Wells success in
bringing the London fire department TO
a pitch OF perfection and by the tact
manifested in his relations with his
many masters. the county councillors and
the municipalities of London, that he
has won his present preferment. That
Middleton and Wells should both be
sailors speaks we'll for the proverbial
hardness OF the naval profession.
