At Brink of Grave Aged
Couple Complete Romance
Begun Sixty Years Ago
OCT0GENARIANS
WE'D
Death Guest at Marriage,
but White-Haired Groom
and Bride Appear Happy
Special Dispatch to The Call.

BENNINGTON. Idaho, July 3.-Mrs.
Robert McCallum, IS years old, lies
slow( dying in her little home here.
BY her side sits her husband, IS years
old. Bride and groom, they are living
over a romance that began more than
half a century ago.
Robert McCallum and Annie Graham
were lovers in New Jersey sixty years
ago. The day for their wedding had
been set when the Graham family met
a Mormon elder, became converted to
the Mormon faith and decided to follow
the fortunes of Joseph Smith, the
prophet. Annie Graham elected to go
with her family. McCallum refused to
become a convert TO the strange faith
and they parted.
The Graham family left for the West
with the Mormons, passed through the
troublous times at Kirkland, Ohio, and
Nauvoc, Illinois, and in 1S4l completed
the weary pilgrimage across mountain
and plain TO Salt Lake.
In Salt Lake Annie Graham married
a man named Weaver and became the
mother Of a large family.
The Weaver family moved to Idaho,
where Weaver died about ten years
ago. About the same time McCallum's
wife died in New Jersey. McCallum
and the sweetheart Of his youth had
exchanged occasional letters during
the many years that had passed, but
had never seen each other since they
parted. Their children had grown to
manhood and womanhood and both
were left alone.
The letters grew more frequent and
a week ago a silver-haired man ar
rived at Montpelier. Idaho. In the par
lOr Of the little hotel there he was
married TO a silver haired woman. full
filling the troth plighted on the Jersey
shore when both were young.
They moved into the little cottage at
Bennington. Almost Immediately the
old wife began to fail. She now lies
dying, tenderly watched by the lover
of her younger days.

WILL SHIP PHILIPPINE
HARDWOOD TO AMERICA
New Competition i'm Lumber Industry
Is Promised by a Chicago
Promoter,

TACOMA. July S.-The steamship
Shawmut last night brought to Tacoma
a sample shipment of 10000 feet of Phil
ippine hardwood, which is to be shipped
extensively to this country in competi-
tion with Eastern hardwoods. Speci-
mems will be made by the Philippine
Lumber and Commercial Company of
Chicago, which has been preparing for
operations for three years.
D. P Sullivan of Manila came on the
Shawmut to introduce the various
woods and show cabinetmakers how
they can be used to the best advantage.
He claims that they will take as high
a polish and work UP as well as any
timber secured in America The speci-
mems comprise red and yellow anna
and acle, all acinet woods, together
with guyjo and yacal, heavy construc-
tiOn timbers.
For cutting timber in LuZon Sullivan
pays Il cents Mexican per Spanish Gu
bic foot, which is equivalent to 81 per
thousand. This is a high stumpage
rate, since on top of it lumbermen must
meet a number of other special tax as
sessments. He believes that the next
Congress will change the laws applying
to Philippine industrial operations, with
the object Of simplifying them.

FINDS ORGANS
ON WRONG SIDE
Examination by Physician
Shows That Chicago Man
Is an Anatomical Freak
CURIOUS FACT REVEALED
X-Ray DisclOSes That the
Heart, Liver and Stomach
of Patient Are Misplaced
Special Dispatch to The Call.

CHICAGO, July 3.-Michael Kappel,
residing at 514 Clybourne avenue, when
examined for life insurance to-day was
found to be an anatomical freak.
Through an X-ray examination DIR.
Adolph Decker discovered that all Of
KappePs internal organs occupy exact
ly opposite positions to those of the
ordinary man. His heart is on the right
side, his liver is on his left side and his
stomach is on his right side.
Kappel lives with his wife and three
children and is in perfect health. Before
he came to this country he served two
terms in the German army without the
surgeons ever discovering the displace-
ment of his organs, and had he not
wished to insure his life he probably
never would have known of the de-
formity.
DR.. Decker, who has made a special
study of Kappel and other cases of this
kind, says that sitres inverses, as the
deformity is called, is very rarely
found. The first case was discovered
by noted English physician, DIR. Aber-
nethy, about 1890, in the body of a dead
child. DR.. Decker says that usually in
such cases the person is left-handed
also, but Kappel is not, AS far as ap-
pearances go he is the same as any
other man.

Southern Cotton spindIes.

A little more than ten years ago, 1890
1891 says a writer in Gunton's Maga-
zine, there were in Southern cotton
mills some 1,950000 spindles, operated
by approximately 10000 hands In 1903
there were in Southern cotton mills
100000 spindles, with about 10000
hands to run them. At the earlier date
the cotton mills in the South employed
about one-seventh of all the cotton mill
operatives in the country. Now that
section finds labor for nearly one-half
the whole number Of hands engaged in
cotton mills in the United States. In
the ten years from 1892 to 1902 the
number of spindles in Northern mills
increased 1,750000, while the increase in
the South was 4,450,O0O spindles. These
figures set forth with an eloquence that
must be convincing the ambition and
determination of the South to enjoy. as
far as possible, the profit and inciden-
tai advantages to be secured by the
conversion of the raw material they
produce into cloth right where the cot
ton is raised.-New York Commercial.

FREIGHT TRAINS WRECKED.
Tramp Killed and Several OF the Crew
Hurt in Collision.

SACRAMENTO. July g. - Two
freight trains going in opposite direc-
tions came together with a terrific
crash near Blue Canyon at an early
hour this morning. An unknown tramp
Was killed and another injured, while
an engineer and brakeman received
severe injuries. The head-on collision
was evidently due TO the failure of
some emplOye Of the company to keep
track OF the movements of the two
trains. The scene OF the wreck was a
winding pass in the high Sierras. The
engineers OF the two trains did not
know of their danger until a turn
through the-Aills brought them face to
face. Il was then too late TO control
the locomotives and the collision which
followed was one Of the worst ever
witnessed on the mountain division.
The engines were demolished and the
cars Of both trains derailed. It re-
Quired the services Of two wrecking
crews for twelve hours to clear the
track for the overland passenger trains
delayed by the accident.
Engineer &. NJ. FOCUS of Rocklin,
who had charge of one Of the locomo-
uEes, was thrown from his seat in
the cab by the force Of the collision
and his back severely injured. He
wss brought 10 his home and medical
aid given him. ". I. BOhannon, a
brakeman Of tire esstbound train. was
severely bruised about the head and
remained unconscious for six hours
He was brought 10 the railroad hos
pitsl at Sacramento, where it was said
this evening his injuries were not seri-
Gus. An unknown tramp, who was
riding on a freight car, was thrown
from his hiding place and killed. while
another tramp, name also unknown
suffered a bad fracture of the jaw
The light attachments Of both locomo-
tiVes were completely torn off and the
engines piled up in a mass at the side
of the track The escape of the en-
gineers and train crews from instant
death is regarded as miraculous.

SEES GERMAN REPUBLIC
LOOMING UP IN FUTURE
"A Seer Consulted by the Kaiser, as
Was Done by His Grand
father


King William, grandfather of the
present German Emperor, was told a
few months before his accession to the
throne of Prussia by a Berlin prophet
ess the year when he would become
Emperor and also the year of his
death. The King, she said, would be-
come Emperor in 1871, because this was
the date obtained by adding to 1S49
the year in which he had come to the
throne, the numerals (22) of which 1S49
was composed. She then said that he
would certainly die in 1888, since this
was the date obtained by adding to
1871, the year in which he would become
Emperor, the numerals QO of which
1871 was composed.
The present Emperor has pondered at
times over this prophecy, and recently
he consulted a seer, who arrived at re-
sured him that If he desired to know
the year in which Germany would be-
come a republic all that he need do
was to add to 1888, the year of his
grandfather's death. the numerals Of
which 1888 was composed.
The numerals of 1888 added together
Il plus plus plus 81 are equal to %,
and the Emperor, by adding this 25 to
1883, learned that 1913 was the year in
which. according to the seer, the en-
pire would be Overthrown in Germany
and a republic established in its stead

MUrnATIoN OF THE DEAD.
Japan Files Counter Charges Against
the Russian Troops.

WASHINGTON. July 3.-The Jap
anese legation to-day received the fol-
lowing dispatch from Toxic:
The chief of staff of the second
army telegraphed as follows:
On June 10 a petty officer and
other soldiers, six in all, belonging to
the Eighteenth Infantry Regiment, en-
countered while scouting about fifteen
Russian soldiers at Chengtsushan and
were killed after hand-to-hand fight
ing. On the death of these men the
Russians thrust their bayonets into
their mouths and cut open their lungs
and took away the contents of their
pockets.
Ion June 27 Kobayashi waichi, a
first-class cavalryman belonging to the
Third Cavalry Regiment, who was
scouting at a point about four kilo-
meters northeast of Heunicheng, was
attacked by the Russians and fell dead
on the ground. Thereupon about
twenty-four cavalrymen surrounded
the dead man and barbarously stabbed
him several times. At this moment a
company Of our cavalry appeared upon
the scene and the Russians fed, leav-
ing the body of the man in our
hands,"

Rain Puts Check
on Contending
Armies.

ST. PETERSBURG, July 4, 4:30 a. m.
Official news up to July indicates that
the Japanese advance from the south
has been suspended. along with all 9TH
er important movements at the seat of
war. The authorities do not expect
much more than desultory skirmishing
until the weather improves. The situa-
ton is considered satisfactory from the
Russian standpoint.
There is evidences of considerable
sickness in the Japanese camps. 1t is
expected here that the Japanese will
suffer more from the rainy weather
than will General Kuropatkin's force.
One of the most striking features of
the situation is the lack of naval news
from the Russian side, but it is pointed
out that if the fleets had gone out such
news would be naturally slow in COM
ing through Russian sources.
Lieutenant General Sakharoff, under
date of July 2, reports minor outpost
affairs and reconnaissance in the
neighborhood of Siakhotau. General
Sakharoff believes that dysentery is
very prevalent among the Japanese
troops.
On June q the Russian fire destroyed
two Japanese guns and caisson. There
are fresh indications of a Japanese ad-
vance near Siakhotau. According to the
report Russian scouts have aseertained
that a number of Korean soldiers are
assisting the Japanese.
LIAOYANG, July 3.-The whole of
Manchuria seems to have turned into a
marsh, and the weather almost pre-
cludes a movement by either side.
It is reported that the Japanese are
near Liaoyang and a battle is expected
when the weather permits. The coun-
try is such that few days of sunshine
will dry the roads.
1t is reported that 0,000 Japanese are
working toward Mukden, but this is
scarcely credited.
LONDON, July 4-The Central News
has received the following from Tatche-
kiao under date of July 8:
THE weather is dry, but the Japa-
nese are taking no action. The Chinese
state that the Japanese lack victuals,
medicines and forage. East of Kaichou
the principal japanese force have
fallen back, abandoning their positions.
There have been no notable changes
on the road to Liaoyang."
According to a dispatch to the Cen
trail News from Mukden, dated July 3,
it is reported that the Japanese are
moving two divisions upon biaoyang
from Fenshui Pass.

DENIES SHIPPING POWDER.

SAN RAFAEL, July 3.-B. D. Pike
was interviewed by a Call reporter late
this afternoon at the Hotel Rafael
where he is staying with his family.
When asked if he was the financial
backer of the movement to ship powder
to Port Arthur he said: II have pat
ents for powder, but have shipped none
to Port Arthur and have no intention
of doing so. If I were to ship any ]
should prefer to send it to the Japan
ese."
When informed that the Oakland po-
lice had confiscated the powder, he
smiled and said: The Barrels do not
contain powder. If the police have ta-
ken possession of the barrels thinking
they contain powder, let them think
so."
He emphatically refused to state
what the barrels contain.
