CHAPTER Y.
Bitter Prospects.

The storm had continued throughou
the day and arose at night with renew
ed fury. 1t was q common thing (.
have weeks OF storms at this season o
the year and the sun rarely ever showet
itself. But every storm was the
worst" and the Oldest ind;v Qua
would verify the fact.
1t only goes to show how quickly
people forget even the unpleasant
things OF life. A month OF rain and
sleet and snow last year, which at the
time was declared unbearable, is for
gotten in the spring sunshine and when
another winter storm comes, although
mild compared with former ones, it is
a record-breaker while il lasts and the
complaint is long and loud
But such is the way Of weak, frivolous
humanity. 1t was sunshine yesterday I;
Is storming today and tomorrow will
be whatever the temperament suggests.
1t amounts to nothing anyway; forever
complaining forgiviDg, expecting, be-
ing disappoint. and disappointing 9TH
ers; yesterdays friend is today's enc
my; in the deepest poverty and dis
tress yesterday, rich and happy today.
After all the mind is the weather vsne
in life's short span of time and the
tongue the thermometer. Whatever the
mind conceives is so, and the tongue
indicates the state Of the mind. Life
IS etorm or sunshine just as the mind
makes it, and the wagging tongue re-
,ords the impression.
But whether in reality II was the
nildest or most severe storm in the
history of the fishing village on the
lorth banks Of the Columbia, in the
mind OF one it was the darkest hour OF
Ter life. The wind blew louder, the |
ainfall on the roof was more raspine
nd the night had closed in with great
r darkness. The fire fickered more |
loomily and the shadows fitted about |
nore ghostily.
The cupboard seemed scantier, the
urnit1re rougher, the bed clothing
ghter, the floor was more bare and
ven the good natured house cat seemed
loomier as the rain and wind ragged

The Care of the Eyes.

The eyes are the most wonderful
and delicate optical instruments in
the world, ard easily subjected to
strain. There are few eyes that are
not caused unnecessary and detri-
mental strain. This produces the in
flammation that is the trouble Of many
and which in turn is often the cause
Of the unsightly pufiness under the
eyes. Although it is not possible to
change their color or shape, the ap-
pearance of tAa eyes can often be
materially improved by proper care,
and the surrounding tissues and fea-
lures so modified as to add greatly to
the looks. Excellent information on
the care of the eyes is given by DR..
Grace Peckhan Murray in the De-
lineator. The use Of glasses is sub
topic that merits special attention.

Metals Get Sick.

Metals can be poisoned and have
diseases in much the same-~way as
animal and vegetable creatures. And
when they are diseased they are dan
gerous to mankind; for if they are
made into tools. they may break, ruin
a laborer's work, or perhaps put out
his eye; if they happen to be part OF
bridge, they may break and cause
accidents, perhaps destroy life. Pro-
fessor E. Heyn, of the Technical Ex-
pertinent Station of the Royal Poly
technic School, Berlin-Charlottenburg,
writes on this highly interesting sub
ject-''Life and Diseases Of Metals
in Harper's Magazine. The micro
scope has developed this branch Of
modern science, as it has developed
the study of human diseases in the
hands of Virchow and his followers.
Illustrations accompanying the article
show diseased copper and steel.

PORT ARTHUR SHELLED.
Japs Return to Attack Of Russian
Stronghold With Vigor and Fight
is Fast and Furious.

An Associated Press dispatch from
St. Petersburg says: A telegram from
Admiral Alexief, from Port Arthur, to
the emperor, says that from 9:15 Fri
daq morning to midday, the Japanese
fleet in two divisions, borbarded the
fortress and the town alternately
from the Liao-Tishan promontory, fir

The Russian squadron, including the
battle ship Pobieda, replied from the
anchorage by a plunging fire. The
batteries also participated.
The losses on land were seven Chi
nese killed and five soldiers and three
Chinese wounded.
The Russian warships sustained no
damage and there was no loss of life
OF them.
Japanese Lost Heavily.
The ST. Petersburg correspondent OF
The London Standard sends d rumor
to the effect that Vice Admiral Togo's
fleet escorted a Japanese landing Of
troops to the westward Of the Yalu
river. When $4,000 men had been
landed, the Russian troops, which were
lying concealed, suddenly attacked
them, driving them back to the shipi
with heavy losses in men and guns.

FOR REWARD OF HER0ISM
Carnegie Establishes Fund of Five Nil
Iions-9ersons Manned in the Sav. .
ing of$Life the Benefeiarics.

It was made known at Pittsburg, Pa,
Friday, that Andrew Carnegie has Gre
ated a fund Of s5,OOO,OOO for the bene-
fit of the dependents of those losing
their lives in heroic efforts to save
their fellowmen or for the heroes
themselves if injured only.
Provision Is also made for medals to
he given in commemoration Of heroic
acts.
The endowment is to be known as
"the hero fund.- and consists Of S5,-
100000 of first collateral 5 per cent
bonds of the United States Steel Cor
roration. The trust is placed in the
hands of a commission, Of which Chas.
L. Taylor is president and F. NJ. Will
mot, secretary. The scheme was cen
ceived by Mr.. Carnegie immed: :ately
after the HarWick mine disaster, when
he summoned to New York Charles L.
Taylor, chairman. and F. NJ. Wilmot,
manager of the Andrew Carnegie re-
lief fund. to discuss with them plans
fur the relief of the sufferers from this
catastrophe
In letter to the hero fund commit
tee, Mr.. Carnegie outlines the general
statement of the funds, which in his
own words is
''To place those following peaceful
vocations who have been injured in he.
ro:c effort to save human life, in some
what better positions pecuniarily than
before, until again able to work. In
case of death, the widow and children
or other dependents to be provided
for-the widow until she is remarked
and the children until they reach a
self-supporting age. For exceptional
children, exceptional grants may be
made for exceptional education.
Grants of sums of money may also be
made to heroes or hercines as the
commission thinks advisable-each
case to be judged on it's merits"
It is provided that no grant is to be
continued unless it be soberly and
properly used, and the recipients re-
main respectable, well-behaved mem.
bers of the community.
A medal shall be given to the hero
Or widow, or next of kin, which shall
recite the heroic deed it commemo-
rates. The medal shall be given for
the heroic act, even if the doer be un-
injured, and also a sum Of money
SHOULD the commission deem such
gift desirable.
"The sea is the scene Of many he
roic acts" says Mr.. Carnegie's letter,
"and no action more heroic than that
Of doctors and nurses volunteering
their services in the case Of epidem-
les. Railroad employees are remark
able for heroism. All these and SINH
lar cases are embraced Whenever he
rcism is displayed by man or woman
in saving human life, the fund ap-
plies"

Before Judge Sanborn

The application for a writ Of

Sheriff Art Scofield, who is serv-
ing a sentence of 80 days in the
Fargo jail on a charge Of con-
tempt OF the federal court. was
argued before the United States

tion for the writ was made by
Judge Corliss, on behalf OF Sher-
if Scofeld, to Judge Sanborn,
who lives at st. Paul, and the
hearing was set for Tuesday.
Assistant District Attorney
Edward Engrud appeared for the
sheriff of Cass county and resist
the issuance Of the writ. Judge
Corliss contended that Sheriff
Sco6e1 was not guilty of con-
tempt OF court on the grounds
tnat his alleged offense was not
committed in the presence Of
Judge Amidon, of the United
States district court, nor near
enough to the court to interfere
with the procedure Of the court.
