LOVES POSY.

BY MARY DUCLAUX-
I made a posy for my love
AS fair as she is soft and fine:
The lilac thrift l made it OF
And lemon-yelloW columbine.
But woe is me for my despair.
For my pale flowers woe is me!
A holder man has given her
4 branch of crimson peony!

ILLUSTRATED SUPPLEMENT.
SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1904.

After Il summer during which they have been
f'more than usual calm," the publishers are
busily putting the finishing touches to the enter
priSeS with which they will, in a week or two,
open the season. 1t is stated in England that no
new book thus far announced there promises to
possess anything like the Importance of Mr..
Morleys Life of Gladstone" and it is not
known that American lists will differ from those
across the water in this respect Nevertheless
there will soon be quantities of new books to
the fore, and to judge from the titles anu the
names of the authors many of them will be of
serious interest Three points in the prospect
are especially to be noted. There will be an in
crease in the number of books illustrated I'm
colors There will be 4 gOodly number of works
art There will be more publications than
ever Of a purely literary nature, critical and
biographical studies of famous authors, and
analyses of abstract literary questions. OF
course the writers of fiction will take their
accustomed place in the centre Of the stage but
this has come to be the most familiar phenome-
non of the season, and excites no special inter
est. AS regards the color books it is to be hoped
that they will illustrate the policy at which one
magazine editor declared he was driving not
long since, the policy of using color not for its
own sake, but in order to reproduce paintings in
themselves worth reproduction. Color printing
in books and periodicals, being the newest
craze" Is too often exploited for catchpenny
purposes. with the result that many gaudy and
worthless plates are issued

1t IS pleasant to observe that the Juvenile

certain fond parents to which we had occasion

relied upon to say trenchant word where liter

book moves Mr. II. B. Marriott Watson, the
novelist, not simply to object to its publication
that 'precocty signifies little or nothing" Sup

YORK HAVEN
PLANT STARTED
Great Electrical Power Concern Is
Set In Motion Before Capitalists.

AuspiciouSy and in the presence of
capitalists from New York, Philadel-
l'lia and elsewhere the machinery of the
great electrical power plant of the York
Haven Water and Power Company, To-
Gated ON the banks of the Susquehanna
river at York Haven. was set in motion
on Monday for practical commercial pur-
poses. Several preliminary tests had
been made. The capitalists who saw
the iniation of the plant arrived in York
Haven by Il special train at noon. and
the machinery Of the plant was set in
moticn shortly after their arrival.
About 20 years ago, when Henry L.
Carter, president of the COnowingo pa
per mill, at Conowingo, Md, and other
capitalists bought an old mill at York
Haven. Mr.. Carter had for his original
plan the harntSsing of the SuSluehunna
to supply power for the towns and
cities in this valley. His was one of the
earliest electrical power plans and was
on Monday realized even beyond his
most Sanguine expectations. The old
paper mill which was bought by Mr.
Carter and his associates was rebuilt
and developed into Il houriShng and
prosperous plant. York Haven was
transformed from Il lifeleSs village to a
large town. These Things achieved, the
energetic Marylander turned his atten-
tion to the development OF larger
scheme.
The work of building the plant was
begun in 1901. Last March. when the
buildings were completed and most of
the machinery installed, there came n
setback. The mighty ice freehet which
swept down the SuSquehannn river car
rying all before it. wrecked the power
house and damaged the machinery, 80
that the plant could not be placed in
operation last spring. as it had been
planned by the engineers. The power
house was rebuilt and better fortified
against future onSlaughtS of ice. The
machinery was quickly repaired anl
everything WAS gotten ready for Mon
days test.
Most of the large industries in York
will be connected with the current and
operated by the power generated at York
Haven. All the electric street car lines
in that city and county will receive their
supply of current from the same source
If the project is carried ont to the limit
of Mr. Carriers plan. habitations, fac
tories business houses, churches, halls
and theaters within Il radius of % miles
will receive their light from the plant.
The officers of the York Haven Water
and Power Company are Henry L. Car
ter. president and manager: Judge w.
+. Bay Stewart. vice-president; Henry
w. Stokes. treasurer; Il. A. W. Shock
chief electrical engineer. and Thomas
Green. superintendent of construction.

CHAPTER XIV.

The Ranger, new and swift sailing
ship and going free also. rapidly edged
down upon the slow moving convoy on
was several miles ahead in the van.
The other ships were carelessly strung
out In long line, probably not sus-
pecting the existence of any possible
enemy in those waters. The sloop of
war appeared TO be among the rear
ships, while the nearest vessel to the
Ranger, was a large schooner whose
superior sailing qualities had permit
ted her to reach several miles to wind
ward Of the square rugged ships. She
appeared to be light In ballast also.
All of the convoy showed lights. The
Ranger on the contrary. was as dark
as the night, not even the battle Ian
terms being lighted. She rapidly over
hauled the schooner, and almost be-
fore her careless people were aware Of
II she was alongside.
Schooner ahoy!" called out the cap
tain OF the ship, standing on the rail,
trumpet in hand.
Alloy there" came back from the
schooner. What ship Is that"
Ellis Britannia majesty's sloop of
war Southampton, Captain Sir James
Yeo. have message from the ad-
miral for this convoy, which we have
been expecting. Send a boat aboard"
AYE, aye, sir! VIII you heave TO for
u.s."
Eyes, Swing the main yard there,
Mr., Seymour, and heave to-"
In a few moments the splash OF oars
was heard, and, small boat drew out
of the darkness to the starboard gang
way OF the Ranger. A man stood up in
the stern sheets and, selling the man
ropes thrown to him, climber up on
the deck.
"Ah, Sir james," he commenced, TAX
ing off his hat. How do you do?
How dark you are! Why, what's all
this?" he exclaimed in surprise and
terror as he made out the strange uni
forms In the dim light. He hesltated
moment and then stepped back hast
lily to the gangway, lifting his hand.
Seize hlm!" cried a stern voice
Shoot him II he makes sound!"
The captain of the unlucky schooner
was soon dragged, struggling and as
tonished, to the break of the poop.
"oh, Sir James, what is the meaning
of this outrage, sir, on British ship
master? | shall report
silence, sir! This is the American
Continental ship Ranger, and you are
q prisoner" replied the same voice

Lihue, Kauai, July 25.-Mokuhali
comes to his death at the hands Of Ka-
mealahaole 1t Is alleged. Committed
to the Grand Jury. Upon the evening
Of July End few natives In and around
Makaweli got together for little jam
boree in the course OF which swlpes and
other intoxicants were INDUCED In free
ly, with the result of few quarrels and
some pickering among the merry-mak-
ers.
Kamealahaola got into a fight with
Mokuhali. and 1t is claimed kicked him
in the side number of times. Moku-
hall was laid up for some time as the
result of these injuries, and upon the
evening Of July Sth. he died.
Deputy Sheriff Crowell heard of his
death and OF the circumstances pre-
ceeding 1t, and telephoned to his SUI
perior in Lihue that the case looked
suspicious to him, and related the cir
tumstances Sheriff Coney ordered an
investigation. Mr.. Crowell impanelled

Endorsed by Queen Alexandra, rouge

Thus tabooed it remained in disrepute

She contends there is nothing wrong
about identifying the complexion by
any means, and she emphasizes her
opinion by coating her own checks

and eyebrow pencils in the women's
