CHAPTER XIV.
sankala Starts on Adventure.

OdAkd1d Clhi 70 OQ adventure.
Extreme old age is like childhood in
many ways. 1t is spoken Of as seconc
childhood almost universally and wbai
becomes common expression among
people is usually true. A maxim, an
adage, quotation, "a legend or supersti.
ton does not become such until it has
been demonstrated to be true in theory
or has good foundation for its origin.
Old age is like youth in many ways.
Both are pettish, fanciful jealous and
unreasonable and often long for the
impossible. But one of the n eatest
similarities in youth and age is the
quickness with which the spark Of life
is extinguished or rekindled in either
extreme.
The infant goes to sleep hale and
hearty. 1t awakens to expire from
some sudden attack of disease. The
aged falls to sleep in the most cheerful
moments to awaken no more. The in
FAINT rallies from the point Of death al
most instantly; its face soon wears a
smile and all trace OF suffering has
passed.
The aged are given up for lost. The
last spark Of life seems extinguisbed.
But suddenly the dull eye lids reopen
with a fash. The wrinkled face is
iekindled with life and the aged limbo
become active. as il youth had re-en-
tered the body. 1t may be spasmodic,
it is true, but age often battles with
death for hours, days, weeks. months,
and even years.
Sankala slept no more that night.
She stood in the partially opened door
and alternately gazed out upon the
bay and then upon the form OF the aged
sleeper, who lay upon the bed near the
lamp. The fight between the fisher
men was her fight. 1t lie true that she
was no longer one Of them, but she had
spent her life among them and their
interests appealed to her as If they
were her own. Besides. Dan Lapham |
was one Of them. He had promised to |
save her aged friend from the county
poor farm and this to her was almost |
as important as life itself. She felt an |
interest in Dan other than this. They 1
had tended their traps side by side.
Dan was kind to her. He was kind to
her dear old RiDgwold. She was frail
and friendless. Dan was strong and
companionable. 1t is natural for the
weak to lean upon the strong. 1t Is
natural for the strong to support the
weak. There is a fellow feeling be-
.ween the weak and ST. ong that draws
hem to each other. Especially is this
he case when the strong Is man and
he weak 10 . woman.
When the first shot was fred that
morning between the fishermen it, 10

Growth or European Population.

Few persons have any idea Of tho
extraordinary manner I'm which the
population OF Europe has increased
during the last century. According to
statisticians this population has more
than doubled itself from 1880 to 1900.
To this increase the Latin nations OF
the west and southwest contributed
the least and the greatest growth was
in the east, where the people have
not yet become thoroughly saturated
with the ideas Of modern civilization.

AN ENDORSEMENT IS MADE

Last night the Merchants Asso-
ciation of Richmond held one Of the
first meetings i'll the new permanent
quarters in the Masonic Temple.
The merchants to the number of
about seventy-fve We're IN attend
ance and the session was a systemat-
ic and harmoniously working one.
A chief feature was the application
of new factories for the city. Agents
for these factories were present last
night and endeavored TO secure opln-
ions fro mthe merchants favorable
TO the factories. Everything is yet
in a practically indefinite stage and
last night : meeting brought out but
a few minor points determining
either the location Of the new fac
tories or Of the time when they will
come to this city. 1t is practically
assured, however, and this assurance
was greatly strengthened by last
night 8 session, that Richmond will
secure through the Merchants Asso-
citation new manufacturing concerns.
At the next meeting something of a
more definite nature in regard to the
new concerns will be decided upon.
The Seidel-Swayne buggy company
was talked of little.
An important item of business was
the accepted proposition to aid the
Associated Charities and a state
ment was read setting forth that the
association desired to cooperate in
every possible way with the Associ-
ated Charities and appealing to
Richmond citizens to perform their
charitable works through the medi-
I'M of this organized charitable So
eiety. The merchants, as individu-
nls, were asked to contribute to the
Associated Charities and the work of
his organization was heartily in
lorsed. Several other matters of
business ont of the usual routine
we're transacted and several talks of
practical nature on business prin-
iples were given. III
The association will endeavor to
ecure permanent secretary, able

usion, however. was reached In this

JAPANESE TO
SUE FOR PEACE
THEIR WILLINGNESS TO DO SO
INDICATED SUGGESTIONS
PRESIDENT AND KING
If Port Arthur Falls the Japanese
Will Be Ready to Ask for
Terms.


London, November 11.-Japan has
indicated her willingness to entertain
peace suggestions from President
Roosevelt and King Edward. Baron
Hayashi, the japanese minister, said
today: "After the fall of Port Ar
thur, Japan would, l believe, be
ready to treat for peace on no higher
essentialities than that Russia
should evacuate Manchuria, Japan
also agreeing to a similar evacuation.
The two two great difficulties in the
way of any suggestion or peace are,
first, the apparent opposition of En-
peror Nicholas present advisers to
a settlement of any kind; second,
the preservation of Russian prestige
When nation s prestige, if not
gone, is seriously impaired, it is a
difficult matter even with the best
of intentions to preserve it,
Queen Alexandra has been in cot
slant communication with the dowag
er Empress of Russia and Emperor
Nicholas himself during the last few
days. This is interpreted here as &
hopeful sign ard as likely to lead,
though not in the immediate future,
to the establishment Of some modus
vivendi, whereby steps looking to ar
bitration might be instituted without
offense to Russia. The reiteration Of
the American State Department s
determination not to intervene. tai
lies with the official attitude of the
British government. but it is thought
that before long, some method may
privately be devised whereby this
diplomatic barrier to action will be
overcome. eF&

is not particularly bright for this

ginning of practice. Most of the

THE TEAM HAS DISBANDEO

I
Earlham, from present Indications,
will have no Thanksgiving football
game. Miami College, the team that
Earlham was to play on the 10Th of
this month announced last night that
the team had disbanded, and as q
Consequence all engagements were
cancelled with all teams
Thus another team has been plac-
ed on Earlham's s black list. The an
nouneement of the failure of the
Miami team to keep together caused
quite furry last night among the
athletic followers of the college.
Manager Albertson was unable to be
reached last evening, having accom-
panied the team to Terre Haute, and
the next move of Earlham was un-
able to be learned from him. Tie
lateness Of the season makes the an
nouneement still more disastrous. as
it will be exceedingly hard for Earl
ham to secure team for this date,
which is the most important of the
entire schedule.
1t is probable that Manager Al
bertson will Immediately open ne
gotiations for game on Thanks
giving and the. Earlham students are
earnestly hoping that contest can
be secured.

While Princeton's team can not be
called a team of veterans this year,
it is made up Of eleven powerful
men who know the game.
Captain Foulke has played fully
up to his standard this year at right
half. His end runs, ranging from
five to fifty yards, have been the
feature of almost every game this
season. Crawford has shown re-
markable improvement in the latter
part of the season in getting down
under punts and tackling hard. In
drop kicking the Tigers will depend
on Pete Tooker.
Jim Cooney is a remarkable play
er both on offense' and defense. The
mighty freshman, Ed Stannard, is
wonderful at walking through line
for big gains, besides having devel-
oped into a strong defensive man.
