SAMPLE OF RUSSIAN DIPLOMACY

RUSSIAN DIPLOMACY.
 The reported concession made by Russia to Japan, by which it is said war will be averted. is accompanied by such meager detail as affords but little upon which to base an opinion as to it's tenor or probable effect. In no other country is diplomacy used Or applied, in its older sense. for the purpose of concealing ul:erior motive and to secure temporary vantage ground than in Russia. The reasons impelling her not to go to war at this season, when all her principal naval ports. are blocked wigA ice. except Port Arthur, are too self evident 10 warrant belief that she would not hes itate to lay herself open to such dis advantage, without taking into con. sideration the danger of complications likel yto arise between herself and other world powers. With her pur- poses so fixed as to securing safe and impregnable footing on the Pacific and in Chinese waters, it is not probable that she would make concessions which would imply reIinquishment of any of her material advantages al ready acquired It is, therefgore, to be inferred that in whatever she may have yielded to Japan she has been guided by the cautious purpose 10 avoid unreasonable complications, with the mental resolution to renew activity in the completion of her de- signs at a more propitious season.

Douglas Has a
 New Mystery
(Continued From Page One.)

(Continued From Page One.) she has been taken by her father, Jack Gray.
 Nellie's father and mother have re- gently separated, and Mrs. Gray, for the time being at least, had posses sion of little Nellie, and the two other children. Mir. Gray wanted the chil- dren, but said that he would wait for the decision of the court as to who should have them. He is not in Doug las himself, but it is believed that he is the cause of the child's disappear ance last night. She is probably be- ing taken care of by some in the inter- ests of the father.
 Gray is a man of good reputation, and for some time has worked in the Copper Queen Store.

lariat.
"Arriba, Juan" he said quietly.
Get up, and the giant obeyed as
meekly as a child. Curly tied his
hands behind his back, took away his
knife, and bound him fast to a tree.
Juan offered no resistance whatever,
but looked at Curly with wondering
dumb protest in his eyes, as of an
animal unjustly punished. Curly
turned again to the fire.
Its him, all right" said he; that's

Curly picked up bit of stick and
began to stir among the ashes, but as
he did so both he and Franklin ut
tered an exclamation of surprise. By
accident he had touched one of the
limbs. The stick passed through it.,
leaving behind but a crumpled, form
less heap of ashes. Curly essayed in
vestigation upon the other side of the
fire. A touch, and the whole CHASTITY
figure was gone! There remained
no trace of what had lain there. The
shallow, incrusting shell of the tickle
ash broke in and fell, all the thin ex-
terror covering dropping into the cav
ern which it had inclosed. Before
them lay not charred and dismem
bered remains, but simply fat table

of the first day brought the travellers
well within view of a timber line, but
the rough country along the stream
was not yet reached when they were
forced to quit the trail and make their
rough bivouac for the night,
There was a curious feeling of GER
tainty in Franklin's mind, as they
again took saddle for the journey, that
the end of the quest was not far dis
tant, and that its nature was prede-
termined. Neither he nor Curly ex-
pected to find the ranchman alive.
though neither could have given letter
and line for this belief. AS for Juan,
his face was expressionless as ever.

asked Curly in cowboy patois. Which
way?"
The Mexican pointed up the stream
with carelessness and they turned
thither. AS they resumed the march,
now along the level floor of the wind
ing little valley, Franklin was revolv-
ing a certain impression in his mind.
In the mud at the bank where they
had stopped he had seen the imprint
of a naked foot-a foot very large and
with an upturned toe, widely spread
ing apart from its fellows, and it
seemed to him that this track was not
so fresh as the ones he had just seen
made before his eyes. Troubled, he
said nothing, but gave a start as Cur
ly, without introduction, remarked. as

Neither man said more, but both
grew grave, and both looked uncon-

Black CaYuaa pucks.

The black Cayuga duck is of Amer
lean origin, and has been bred so
long in this country that all record Of
its origin is lost. 1t first drew the
attention of people in the vicinity OF
Cayuga Lake in New York, and from
this lake it takes its name. 1t used
to be called the Big Black Duck and
the Lake Duck" BY some it is
claimed that this breed comes from
the wild black duck which was do
mesticated in the vicinity of the lake
named. The mature drake weighs .
pounds and the mature duck z pounds.
These birds are said to do well and
are especially adapted to restricted
range. They breed well in confine'
ment. They are quiet and docile and
form a strong attachment for their
home. They show no desire to stray
far away from the place where they
are bred. They fatten easily and are
therefore readily kept in good condi-
ton, the trouble being that they fire.
uuently become too fat. The duck
lings are hardy and are easy to raise
and attain good weight in a short
time. Their color is lustrous black
throughout.

CHAPTER Xxx.
The Body of the Crime.

The Body OF the Crime.
Hour after hour. in the heat of the
day or the cool of the evening, the
giant Mexican strobe on by the side
of the two horsemen, sometimes trot-
ting like a dog, more often walking
with a stumbling, wide-reaching step,
tireless as any wild animal. Express
sionless, mute, the colossal figure
strobe along, like some primordial
creature in whom human soul had
not yet found home.
The Mexican was running the back
trai' of the horse of Cal Greathouse,
she missing ranchman, and it was
very early seen that the horse had
not returned over the route taken by
Greenhouse when he started out. He
had gone along the valley of the
Smoky River, whereas the course Of
the loose animal had been along the
chord of wide arc made by the val
ley of that stream, course much
shorter and easier to traverse, as it
evaded part of that rough country
known as the breaks of the Smoky,
series of gullies and draws" run
ming from the tableland down to the
deep little river bed. The afternoon

moaned, wringing his hands and shiv-
ering as though stricken with an ague
He writhed among the leaves, his eyes
fixed upon that CHASTITY shape which
lay before him.
There, in the ashes of the dead fire,
as though embalmed, as though alive,
as though lingering to accuse and to
convict, lay the body of Greenhouse,
the missing man. Not merely
charred, incinerated mass, the figure
lay in the full appearance of life,
cast of the actual man, nodded with
fineness from the white ashes of the
fire, Not feature, not limb, not
fragment of clothing was left unde-
stroyed, yet none the less here, stretch
ed across the bed of the burned-out
fire, with face upturned, with one arm
doubled beneath the head and the
other with clinched hand outfung,

the identity of the man they sought!
1t was a death mask, wrought by the
pity of the destroying flames. These
winds, this sky, the air, the rain, all
had spared and left it here in accusa-
ton most terrible. in evidence unpar-
alleled, incredibly yet irresistibly
true.
Franklin felt his heart stop as he
looked upon this sight and Curly's
face grew pale beneath its tan. They
gazed for a moment quickly, then
Curly sighed and stepped back. Keep

HISTORY OF COTTON THREAD.
NapoIeon's Seizure of Hamburg III
rectly Forced Its Use.

NapoIeon's Seizure of Hamburg Di-
rectly Forced Its Use.
Ex-Provost Clark of Paisley, Eng
land, has been relating the origin Of
cotton sewing thread, which was first
used in that town in the weaving Of
"heddles" as a substitute for silk,
which was stopped by Napoleon in
1903, when he seized Hamburg. Mr..
Clark's grandfather and his brother
then bethought them of cotton. which
worked so smoothly that Mr.. Clark's
father, then n youth, took to recon-
mending it to women instead Of linen,
then mostly used.
Originally it was sold in hanks or
skeins These the women had to
wind into little balls, as they do a
cut of wool at the present day. Wish
ing to convenience them. young Clark
on selling a skein of thread would sit
down at a pirn wheel and wind the
thread on a bobbin, for which he
charged halfnenny. This halfpenny
was refunded when the enpty bobbin
was returned. Such was the begin
ming Of cotton thread.

The First Matches,


1t is desirable to have some oil the
early broods come in the end OF win
ter or the beginning of spring. More
than the usual care will need to be
taken in the setting OF hens for this,
and in the care of the broods after
ward Many chances have to be taken
with the birds that are used at this
time of the year, as some of them will
not have the broody fever very badly.
Such ones will sit for few days and
then abandon their eggs much to the
discomfort of the owner of both. IL
is therefore best not to attempt to use
such birds as Leghorns, which have
the sitting instinct partly eliminated.
1t is always advisable to select birds
in which the brooding instinct is
still very strong, such as the Plymouth
Rocks and the Brahmas. 1t is fur
thermore advisable to leave them on
the nest for some days before giving
them the eggs. to make sure that they
have a wellsettled intention to raise
a brood.
The sitting place will have to be
most carefully selected, away from the
other fowls and away from drafts
from doors and windows. The winds
and rains of late winter and early
spring are not conducive to the health
of fowls at the best. The number of
eggs given should not be so large as
it may be after the weather becomes
warm. When too many eggs are CIV
en- those on the outside stand good
chance of being chilled. Then after
some days the hen will have worked
them about and got them in the mid
die and other eggs will have taken
their place on the outside to become
chilled in turn. During the three
weeks of incubation a good many eggs
are thus rendered worthless. The eX-
act number of eggs must depend both
on the size of the eggs and the size OF
the hen, as is evident. Ten eggs are
enough when the season is likely to
be cold.
The sitter must have considerable
liberty to go and come as she pleases,
and this will not generally prove detri-
mental to the eggs, provided the fowl
does not get out of the idea OF sit
ting altogether. 1t is surprising how
long bird can remain off the nest in
very cool weather and the eggs yet
hatch. The writer had an illustration
of this some years ago. A hen left
her nest and remained off for two or
three hours. The eggs were stone
cold" when the hen went back to
them, and it was believed that they
were lost so far as chicks were con-
cerned. The hen was allowed, how
ever to sit on them, and, to the sur
prise of all, in due time biddy brought
off a nearly full brood of healthy
chicks. We leave the explanation to
others. Someone will say that the
hen knew her business best after all.
Perhaps she did.
The greatest trouble with Matching
at this time of year is in taking care
of the broods that come. The hen
and they must have as warm a place
as it is convenient to give them, and
not too much room to wander about in.
The chicks will run back to their
mother after being out for only a few
minutes each time and will thus keep
from becoming chilled, provided the
mother has hen sense, which she does
not always have.-Farmers' Review.
