Of real pullin' ability" he said. 1--WE
got a team that can really pull. I had
um in the stun quarry haulin' stun
two weeks ago, and some of the quarry
hands fixed a big stun so thet moth
in could move 1t. I reckoned I'd try
1t, and so hitched a chain onto 1t and
jest teched the horses up a little, and
they started to pull. was watchin'
the rock that wouldn't bulge, and did
not notice until the team he'd pulled fer
a couple of minits, but when I looked
round there they was pullin' stiddy as
clockwork, sunk up to their ankles In
solid stun, and sinkin' deeper and deep
er every mint. Thet was real pullin'."
Silas picked up the lines and slapped
the horses on the back. II think It's

On Paper Money Can Be Told Without
Seeing the Figures.
"If any one comes up to you and
wants to bet you that they can tell
whether the number on any Of Uncle
Sans paper money Is odd or even by
looking at that part of the bill on which
the number does not appear, shun him
as you would the plague" said a guest
at the Hotel Mckay last night.
Why? What Is the joke?" asked
another guest.
"Only this" replied the first, Il was
out this afternoon with a number of
men with whom have business deal
ings. We ate lunch and then one man
wanted to bet me that he could tell the
even or odd on the number Of any bill
l had. the loser to pay for the lunch.
took a bill from my pocket, folded 1t
so that the number did not show and
after he had looked at it he said Even.
1T was even. Soon afterward l got
stuck for the cigars the same way. At
ter l had been done for four or five
times they explained to me that all OF
the bills marked "A and C. were odd,
while those marked b d were even.
1t cost about s6 to find it out, but
guess it was a good investment at that.
It Is the same on all bills. Be careful
when attempting to do the work not
to take the series letter in front Of the
number but hunt for small letter on
the left hand side Of the bill"

sia has twenty-five flrst-class battle
ships, nine second-class battle ships
and seven third-class battleships. ia
pan has four coast-defense ships and
two armored cruisers. Russia has sew
en- coast-defense ships and fifteen ar
mored cruisers. Japan has seven first
class cruisers. eighteen cruisers Of 9TH
er classes and sixteen gunboats, Rus
sia has twelve first-class cruisers
twenty-five second-class cruisers, nine
third class cruisers and eleven sea-go-
ing gunboats.
Japan Is In every way inferior to
Russia rom a military standpoint. AS
to the relative fighting qualities Of the
soldiers it must be remembered the
Russian troops have held their own
against the Turks, In many ways the
finest and most stubborn soldiery In
Europe, while the only test Of modern
Japanese soldiers on a large scale was
in 1894. when they faced the half-arm-
ed. cowardly and unframed rabbles of
the Chinese army.
BY remaining in a defensive posi-
tion-the attitude she has assumed
thus far-Russia could compel Japan
to transport her army over the sea to
fight. Japan could not attack Russia
in Manckuria with any hope Of sue
cess. There is a great Russian army
there, with great fortresses as depots
OF supplies. Nor could she attack Rus
sia on her Siberian seacoast, for there
is another great army there.
Korea would be the halfway
ground. Both countries would have to
use their armies and navies II the war
should be mainly in Korea.
Then, again, If Japan should be as
sisted by Great Britain, and China
also be her ally. she might use Korea
as a base, enter Manchuria at the Yalu
river and march toward Port Arthur
and Talienwan from the rear, as she
did before, while Great Britain and
China could strike Russia by land and
sea at all points, especially breaking
the line of the Trans-Siberian railway
and cutting the Russian army off,

sister writing to Brandonr Gods
death! My Lord Of Buckingham. the
suspicious you whispered in my ear
may have some truth. We will let this
fellow remain In Newgate and allow
our good people Of London to take
their own course with him."
Buckingham went to Windsor next
day and told Mary that arrangements
had been made the night before for
Brandon's escape and that he had
heard that Brandon had left for New
Spain.
Mary thanked the duke, but had no
smiles for any one. Her supply was
exhausted.
She remained at Windsor nursing
her love for the sake Of the very pain
it brought her and dreading the battle
for more ,nan life itself which she
knew she should soon be called upon to
fight.
At times she would fall into one of
her old fits Of anger because Brandon
had not come to see her before be left,
but soon the anger melted into tears,
and the tears brought a sort Of JOY
when she thought that he had run
away from her because he loved her.
After Brandon's defense Of her in Bill
lingsgate Mary had begun to see the
whole situation differently. and every.
thing was changed. She still saw the
same great distance between them as
before, but with this difference, she
was looking up now. Before that
event he had been plain Charles Bran
don and she the Princess Mary. She
was the princess still. but he was q
demigod.
So Mary remained ct Windsor and
grieved and wept and dreamed and
longed that she might zee across the
miles Of blllowy ocean to her love. her
love, her love! Meanwhile Brandon
had his trial In secret down In London
and had been condemned to be hanged,
drawn and Quartered for having saved
to her more than life itself.
Put not your trust in princesses!

Cane Given In Grateful Memory to an
Aqed CoIored Man.

Aged Colored Man.
ITO James Jones, in grateful memo
nv, from Mrs. Jefferson Davis" Is the
inscription on heavy band Of silver
which encircles a handsome buckhorn
handle walking cane which Is owned
and highly priced by an aged colored
man employed in the United States
senate.
II prize the cane highly" said Jones
as he exhibited it to several gentlemen,
land 1 have received offers Of large
sums of money for it, but it Is not for
sale at any price. While the cane Is a
very costly one, prize 1t all the more
because Mr.. Davis used 1t and because
Mrs. Davis thought enough OF me to
send 1t to me after her husbands
death. I have been offered $500 for It
several times, but ten times that
amount would not buy 1t. During the
war used to wipe this cane off nearly
every morning for Mr.. Davis, and he
thought a great deal Of it, as he killed
the buck from which the horn was
taken. He killed the buck while he
was secretary Of war and while he was
on deer hunt in Mississippi Senator
Blackburn tells me that the wood Is
very valuable, and as far as he knows.
Mr.. Davis and myself were the only
ones who had canes made OF 1t In this
country, 1 was with Mr.. Davis con-
stantly during the war, and when not
with him, I was with Mrs. Davis at
Raleigh, N. c.. who was visiting at
Gen. Johnston's." 's."-Washington Post.

Buckingham felt that his revenge
had slipped through his fingers this
time, but he was patient where evil
was to be accomplished and could wait
Then it was that the council was called
during the progress Of which Mary
and had tried to obtain an audience
Of the king.
Buckingham had gone to pay bis re-
spects to the queen and on his way
back had espied Mary waiting for the
king IN the anteroom and went to her.
At first she was irritated at the sight
Of this man. whom she so despised'
but a thought came to her that she
might make use Of him. She knew his
power with the citizens and city au-
thorities Of London and also knew, or
thought she knew, that smile from
her could accomplish everything with
him. She had ample evidence Of bis
infatuation. and she hoped that she
could procure Brandon's liberty through
Buckingham without revealing her
dangerous secret
Much to the dukes surprise, she
smiled upon him and gave cordial
welcome. saying: MY lord, you have
been unkind to US Of late and have not
shown US the light Of your counte-
nance. am glad to see you once
more. Tell me the news"
Il cannot say there is much Of inter
est. l have learned the new dance
from Caskoden, If that Is news, and
hope for favor at our next ball from
the fairest lady In the world"
"And quite welcome" returned Mary,
complacently appropriating the tito
"and welcome to more than one. !
hope, my lord"
This graciousness. would have looked
suspicious to one with less vanity man
Buckingham, but he saw no craft In It
he did see, however, that Mary did
not know who had attacked her In
Billingsgate. and he felt greatly ne
lieved.
The duke smiled and smirked and
was enchanted at her kindness. They
walked down the corridor. talking and
laughing. Mary awaiting an opportu-
nifty to put the important question with
out exciting suspicion. AT last itecame,
when Buckingham. half inquiringly,
expressed his surprise that Mary
should be found sitting at the kings
door.
II am waiting to see the king" said
she. Little Caskoden's friend, Bran.
don, has been arrested for brawl Of
some sort over In London, and Sir Ed
win and Lady Jane have importuned
me to obtain his release, which I have
promised to do. Perhaps your grace
will allow me to petition you In place
Of carrying my request to the king.
You are quite as powerful as his maj
esty in London, and l should like to
ask you to obtain for Master Brandon
his liberty at once. I shall hold my
self infinitely obliged If your lordship
will do this for me-" She smiled upon
him her sweetest smile and assumed
an Indifference that would have de-
ceived any one but Buckingham. Upon
him under the circumstances 1t was
worse than wasted. Buckingham at
once consented and said that notwith-
standing the fact that he did not like
Brandon. to oblige her highness lie
would undertake to befriend much
more disagreeable person.
