OYSTER BAY, n. Y, Sept. i5.-Supersti-
tious people here were all in a fiutter to-day
over something that happened to the towns
Roosevelt and Fairbanks campaign banner
in the storm last night. The Republican
eagle sewed to the network banner between
the picture of the candidates was blown
completely out of existence. Not even a
rag of it was left in the banner. The Demo-
Gratis waeged their heads and said, That's
the way we'll do business, and superstitious
persons were afraid it was bad sign for
the election. These folks recalled the de-
struction Of the Oyster Bay Mckinley and
Roosevelt banner by fire four years ago and
then pointed to the calamity which over
took the nation later in the assassination OF
President Mckinley. These are the same
persons who argued that because 1t was
a windy season here four years ago Bryan
would be elected.
President Roosevelt received the news
OF the nomination Of Frank w. Higgins
for Governor a few minutes after he was
named by the convention, Bulletins OF
the convention procesdings were sent over
special wire to the executive Offices and
transmitted to Sycamore Hill by telephone.
The President followed the proceedings Of
the convention with the greatest interest.
but he declined to be drawn into the con-
test in any way prior to the convention.
He also refrained from taking any part in
the proceedings at Saratoga, even by sug-
gestion.
While he refused to take any part in any
way, for or against any candidate, he ex-
pressed himself this evening as pleased
that Mr.. Higgins had been named for
Governor. Mr.. Higgins was chairman OF
the Finance Committee of the State Senate
while Mr.. Roosevelt was Governor. Their
relations naturally were very close, Mr..
Roosevelt relying upon him in many ways.
This message was sent to President Roose-
Welt yesterday:

with the curt remark that Colonel Jur.

She left Dellnikoff in the library and
took the bundle from him. She hurried
to her room. When she got there, she
knelt and prayed. Marie found her on
her knees and lifted her.

long cloak she had bought, as that
worn by Dellnikoff, covered her COM

her beautiful tresses short. In her ex-
element she left them where they fell
upon the floor. She went to the library
and threw aside the cloak.
"Alma," cried the prince, rushing to
her, you are superb! The uniform be-
comes you better than it does me,
though it is trifle large. Where did
you get the boots?"
"They were left by a-by soldier

She left the room and returned with

Fraulein Krupp, Richest Girl In Esssu,
Germany, Guarded by
Detectives.

1t is one of the grim ironies Of fate that
a young girl, barely Of age, should be
in sense responsible for the bloodshed
in tie struggle between Russia and ia
pan, owing to the fact that she supplied
both powers with practically all their
guns. The young woman in question IL
Miss Krupp, who, on the death Of her
father, became chief proprietor Of the
world-famous Krupp works at Essen.
and likewise became the wealthiest
woman in the world.
The heiress seems to have inherited
some of the family capacity for in
dustrial organization, for she takes the
greatest pride and delight in supervising
the work of the different departments,
and declares that at some future time
she will have gained sufficient experience
to take an active part in the direction OF
affairs.
Meanwhile, her interference in BUSH
ness matters is limited to passive super
vision, but she takes more active part
in controlling the management of the
numerous auxiliary departments Of the
establishment. The schools for the chill
dren of her employees and the hospitals
for the care of the sick receive regular
visits from her, and she has sharp eye
for defects Of all kinds.
Knowing human nature, 1t Is hardly
surprising to find that Miss Kupp's
employees do not appreciate her good
qualities and charitable ways. Living in
Miss Kupp's houses, sending their chill
dren to her schools. applying to her hos
pitfalls when they or their families are
sick, attending her churches, drinking
beer in her restaurants, buying meat
from her slaughter houses, -four from her
mills, bread from her bakeries and hats
and clothes from her stores makes them
feel that they are her serfs, and not free
born laborers.
Miss Krupp's charitable disposition
has become known to the general public
in Germany, with the result that she
receives, on an average, over 200 purely
begging letters day. and over $50 let
tiers daily entreating her to grant some
position in the works to some worthy
young man.
She also has to undergo some OF the in
conveniences which are generally con-
fnded to emperors and kings. Her vast
wealth and the ownership of an entire
city make her a likely target for an
archists' bullets, and her friends are in
constant terror Of assassination. For
this reason her guardians have insisted
on her being continually guarded by q
special corps Of detectives, who are Al
ways in her vicinity.

THE MYSTERY OF MEMORY.
A Postal Clerks Wonderful Feat-- No Adequate Scientific ExpIana-
 tton of the Wonder.

The newspapers are telling of the re- markable feat of postal clerk who, in civil service examination, did not 42,000 test postal cards, each represent ing post office in certain territory as- signed This was done at the rate of B 1-3 cards a minute Far more note- worthy is the memory of an expert pi- ano player, who will play an entire sea- sons concerts without note of printed music before him. His memory is so perfect that hundreds of thousands of notes must be at the orderly and instant disposal of the will. And this is con- bined with multiplicity of synchronous recollections of timbre, tempo, expres- sion, etc.
 The mystery is at present past the limiting of any explanation, and this fact is as beautiful as it is appalling. It shows us. declares American Medicine, how far we are from any real science of psychology Physicians note the strange thrusting of disease among the mechanisms of memory, the morbid ef- fleets of some neoplasm or injury to parts of the convolutions of the brain where by some memories are lost temporarily or permanently, in part or completely, while others are unaffected Even this leaves us in amazement at the inscruta- ble complexity and methods of the cellu- lar machine.
 But through these morbid injuries we catch tantalizinp p1irnpsas which some day, properly studied and followed up, may bring some psychologist physi- clan to an unraveling of the mystery.
