1t is not with a desire to wreak venge-

that prompted the aggrieved husband
to institute the search that has car

break off an alliance that will only end
in disaster. AS for the wrecker of a

his lands cover many acres adjoining

cember, 1902, John Grant, employed as
a section hand on the railroad, made
his appearance in the town and took
up quarters at the hotel. He was a
pleasant, sociable fellow and readily
made friends. After remaining in Os-

friends, the Smalls. On August Is of

upon investigating Small ascertained
that she had eloped with their former

WHILE He DENIED
THE COCKS CROWED
THE BOOSTERS ANTOINE PERRY Is
THEIR VOICES AGAINST HIM.

"Antone Perry, you are charged with
stealing chickens; are you guilty or not
guilty." said Judge Lindsay to a man
who stood before him in a dshevelled
khaki suit and canvas shoes worn with
out hose.
Not guilty" replied Perry, and i'm
mediately four or five roosters which
Perry was accused of stealing began to
crow
Arraigned with Perry, who is ma
tive with apparently a strain of some
other blood in his veins, was Kaeha.
Kaeha pleaded guilty and turned states
evidence. According to the testimony,
Kaeha and Perry nave been carrying
on chicken stealing in a systematic
way for nearly year. They stole the
chickens and gave them to a benevo-
lent looking old native who in turn de-
livered them to a Chinese, who deliver
ed them to another Chinese who took
them to market.
The thread of circumstance which
led Deputy High Sheriff Chillingworth
and Detective McDuffie to the prison
ers was something like the house that
Jack built A good house wife who had
suffered from the depredations of the
chickens thieves, recognized some of
her fowls at a Chinese poultry shop
near King street. She reported the
matter to the police. The Deputy High
Sheriff and -1cDuffie started with the
Chinaman who had the fowls, and
learned from HIM the Chlnaman he got
them of, and from him the next Chi
naman in the deal, and from him the
benevolent looking old native, and
from him, Antoine Perry and Kaeha.
The evidence was very clear against
Perry, but he resolutely cross-examin-
ed every witness, as though he had
any show of breaking down the case
against him,
| Finally he took the stand and denied
emphatically that he had ever stolen
chickens. With great volubility he tolu
how he had caught certain particular
chickens at the request of white man
who was the owner. He admitted he
/ had been where the other witnesses
/ had testified that the money from the
sale of the chickens had been divided,
/ but he had always been there not be-
cause he got any of the money, but be-
cause there was also a generous dis
tribution of swipes.
Finally, at the end of avery search
ing cross-examination by the Deputy
High Sheriff he denied for the third
| time that he had ever stolen chickens;

FRANCE PLANS A
WAR OF CONQUEST
WILL SEEK TO SURROGATE MO-
ROCCO AND ENGLAND WILL
KEEP HER HANDS OFF.

PARIS, September 16.-Preparations
are already well advanced for the next
war of conquest in which a great
power will engage. The French Gov
eminent has determined to conquer and
annex Morocco, and preparations on
an extensive scale will probably be be-
gun within a few weeks.
This ambition of France is, of course
well known and well understood. What
it not well known and will not be easily
understood is that Great Britain has
consented to stand aside and to
abandon her almost traditional atti-
tude of protection of the royal preroga-
tives of the Sultan of this African
kingdom.
Less than ten years ago Great
Britain would not have hesitated to
have made war with France, if neces-
sary, in defense of the integrity of
Morocco. The Sultan ,as late as the
spring of the present year, relied with
absolute confidence upon British sup
port. Whether he has yet become
| The explanation of this radical
change of policy on the part of the
British Government is only partially
clear. 1t has, at first glance, the ap-
! pearance of another Gave" and a
weak one at that. Its motive, how
ever, is undoubtedly the new effort
Britain is making to divorce Fance
from her alliance with Russia. The
concession was made by the British
authorities at the time of the visit of
| President Loubet to the King in July
last, and Delcasse brought back with
him to Paris the consent of Lord
| Lansdowne.
| How much will be accomplished
toward the object aimed at by this
very substantial favor to the French
republic it is difficult to say. The
reaction against Russia in French
public opinion is considerable and is
increasing. 1t is especially strong in
financial circles, where it is realized
that Russia has systematically turned
French sympathy into coin from the
moment the alliance was announced.
The compact is however, still a factor
of prime Importance in international
politics and England cannot hope to
render it imperative today or to-
morrow by her friendty action with
regard to Morocco. I'D
The approaching campaign will be
subject of the keenest military in
terest, not alone to France but to
ali Europe. Nothing fs tknown and
much is suspected regarding the eff
fectiveness of the machinery and FER
sonnet of the French army 1t has
had no real last. The conquest of
Morocco will not he child's play at
all, though it involves nothing APP
preaching in magnitude the task
which Great Britain assumed with a
light heart when she sent Butler with
$4,000 men to subdue the 6oers.
MADRID, september 16.-Private
dispatches from Morocco3 say that Ben
Jussi commander of a detachment of
the imperial troops, and six hundred
of his men were killed recently in an
engagement with the Insurgents. The
Sultan is reported to have narrowly
escaped falling into the hands of the
enemy.

LAST NIGHTS RAIN.

1t rained 2.92 inches last night in
three hours. This Is a tremendously
heavy rain. The acting meteorologist
says it was more like a cloudburst than
ar ordinary rain. 1t was not preceded
by any indications of rain. The ba-
rometer continued to rise throughout
the storm, and it ceased almost as
suddenly as it began. 1t was prob
ably due to a sudden current of cold
air being precipitated down on a high
ly saturated atmosphere.
