 Never mind what was in that letter. Emeline refused to send her photograph until he had sent his own. He has sent it, and is now waiting for the end Of the romance.
 Mrs Lucy E. Perkins, a young Iowa widow, waited four years at the door of the Fort Madison penitentiary for Emil Jeannett. Then she married him, in spite of the fact that he had been a con- vict. Now they are on their way to Switzerland, leaving behind them un- happy memories, to find peace and hap piness in little home in the old coun- try
 Jeannett was at one time resident and merchant of Bonaparte, and while there met Mrs Lucy E. Perkins. He be- friended her when she was in trouble, Her first married life had not been hap py and she learned to love the young Swiss.
 Trouble came to Jeannett about this time. It was financial trouble. He forged g check, was apprehended, con- victed, and sentenced to serve four years in the states prison at Fort Madison.
 But Mrs. Perkins did not forget him. and her love for him remained true. She waited for his release from prison.
 He was liberated the other evening and she was the first to greet him as he came out into the world again a fres man.
 A marriage license was procured, with the assistance of the county attorney, < T. H. Johnson, and the prison chaplain l performed the ceremony making them man and wife,
 Partly because he feared the banter of his fellow salesmen and partly be- cause he feared parental opposition and perhaps intervention, William M. John ston, St. Joseph drummer, eloped with Miss Alice Anderson, also of St. Joseph. . and went to Maryville, Mo, where they were married by Rev. w. A Fitc in the parlors of the Hotel Linville MT and Mrs, Johnston left immediately after the ceremony for tour through Mr. John stons territory. The groom will thus kill two birds with one stone, solicit business for his firm, and between breaths enjoy the blessings of matri- monial bliss.
 1 Miss Anderson's parents objected to the attentions of the young travelling nan. and to avoid trouble they eloped. A wholesome fear of being "guyed'' by other drummers was also an element ! that led toward the young couples selecting Maryville as Gretna Green.

Luther Burbank's work is always in
teresting, but it would appear that his
latest accomplishment is the most re-
markable of all. By his methods of Sc
lection, he has succeeded in growing
rhubarb plants of strawberry and rasp-
berry favors. The stalks taste like
fresh berries with a delicate flavor Of
the original rhubarb. and are said to be
rare epicurean dainties. Few men OF
his century have added more to the
worlds wealth than has this great Cali
fornia experimenter. He has shown
the world how it can increase nor
mously the output of the soil; he has
pointed the way for the increase of food
and luxuries for man, making it posi-
BILE for a greater population to live in
comfort and even luxury. A His is the
greatest of accomplishments.

WAR NEWS In BRIEF.

In less than q week the Japanese of
Portland. Oregon, raised $40, 200 to send
to the assistance of their country in her
trouble in the Far East.
1t develops that the three japanese
hanged by the Russians in Manchuria
after partially succeeding in an attempt
to blow up the railroad bridge over the
Sangari river were japanese officers of
the general staff disguised as Chinese
coolies. They were arrested just as
they were about to make the attempt
and were at once hanged from the
girders of the bridge.
The Russian commander of the gun
boat Mandjur persists in refusing to
leave Shanghai to fall into the hands of
the Japanese, though under the law of
neutrality China has ordered him to do
so. China has now ordered two cruisers
to that port to eject the Russian. japan
threatened to take decisive steps if China
did not. The United States squadron
is assembling at Shanghai.
Russia has sent q formal protest to
the powers against what she regards
as Japan's violation of the neutrality OF
Korea. She alleges that the attack on
the Russian warships in Chemulpo
harbor before the formal declaration Of
wal was in disregard of all treaties and
obligations and in violation of the
fundamental rules of international law.
Japan now having assumed the admin
istration of Korea, Russia, will ignore
all actions of the Korean Governments.
Japan places no credence in the st.
Petersburg advices to the effect that
Russia will be in no hurry to strike the
first decisive blow on land. Toxic 8
tacticians believe that these statements
are given out to deceive the enemy"
while Russian forces are pushing into
Korea and strengthening their positions
in Southern Manchuria. Whether Rus
STA wills it or not, according to Ja-
panese advices, there will be land fight
ing very soon.

BONA FIps SILVER CANDIDATE

The SENTINEL this week gives its
readers the interview the Elko indie
paadcnt had last week with Supreme
Judge A. L. Fitzgerald relative to the
latter's candidacy for the seat of William
NJ. Stewart in the United States Senate.
A perusal of the Judges principles
will convince any one-be he Republi-
can, Democrat, or Fusionist-that a
candidate has entered the Senatorial
lxat in Nevada who does not say that
"silver is dead" or, even sleeping.
That the Judges silver political ten
denotes stamp him the man of the hour
with the Silverites of Nevada can not
be disputed, and in the many written
and spoken comments already made on
his candidacy his declarations and propo-
sitions have not been openly opposed.
During his brief visit. in Eureka last
week Judge Fitzgerald impressed upon
the Silver men here the necessity of
making silver a leading issue this COM
ing Fail. The outcome will be waited
with interest.
Judge Fitzgerald certainly gives the
Silver Party a chance to make the fight
of its life.

Called His Bluff.

At Elko last Tuesday night Tom
Harvey invited Constable Mccoy to go
with him into the billiard room of the
Commercial Hotel. The lights in the
room we're out at the time, but Mccoy
accented the invitation. AS soon as
they were in the room Harvey began
abusing Mccoy for arresting him the
day before on the charge of assault and
battery and then talked fight. He told
Mccoy to lay off his gun and he would
fight him, or he would go to his room
and get his gun and they would then
fight. After parleying a few minutes
Mccoy noticed a suspicious movement
of Harney's right hand and closed in
on him. The Constable drew his pistol
and told Harvey to throw up his hands.
The command was obeyed. Harvey
was then searched and a big pistol was
taken from his person. He was taken
to Jail and on Wednesday plead guilty
to carrying a concealed weapon and
paid a $50 fine.

The Scheme Failed.

Paris, Feb. Is. Additional
details of the Japanese attempt
to close the entrance of the har-
Dor of Port Arthur have been re-
ceived from most authoritative
quarters, These say the Japan
csc sent five or six old transport
hulks, conveyed by torpedo
boats to Port Arthur, with the
evident purpose of sinking the
hulks at the entrance to the har-
Dor.
The battleship Retvizan dis
covered their approach and her
fire on them was strongly second
ed by that of the shore batteries
north of Port Arthur.
The report adds that two ia
panese ships were wrecked and
lie in Tiger bay.
It is believed that these wrecks
were not war ships, but hulks,
designed to be sunk at the en-
trance of the harbor. The wrecks
are said to be at considerable
distance from the harbor en-
trance, which remains open.
This report gives no informa-
ton concerning the Japanese
fleet which is said to have sup
ported the operations against
Port Arthur.
