mixed up in fierce fight with four other youths.
The nine were arrested. tried and sentenced.
The five guardsmen were fined $1G2 80, and the
other four rioters $500. But the fine proved
to be no punishment whatever. All the guards
men contributed equally TO free their uufortu-
nate fellows. and the whole town shared the
fine of the four other fighters.
Woman holds much higher position among
the Sanoans than among many other Polyne-
slams, and this is perhaps due 10 their communal
customs. In every village there is maiden
who Is reverenced as the virgin queen of the
community. She is called "taupou." or sacred,
and her every action Is watched Ey two old
men, to prevent her contamination with IKE vul-
gar world. Should any village youth stare too
hard at her as she passes by, he is severely
punished. Should she chance TO smile On some
naval officer, who returned the smile .ut be-

II Hetman or Ataman, once held by the far
famed Mazeppa, making him the sole authority
over the two million Cossacks of Russia.
Having their own uniform of dark green, still
carrying the famous lance, so long their deadliest

favor the opportunity to enjoy the life they love,

Caucasus and oyerran Asia, until the great

term for Russian in his famous prophecy that

laown it is likely that the Cossack VIII have his

swollen rivers viii doubtless be noteworthy.
though his actual service on the battlefield fails
far short Of what was expected. Untamed,
fearless, more in touch with the age OF Tanner

FEW FAMILY JARS THERE
Manuans S5cap UireS or Children to
Obtain Quiet in the Home.

American rule has at last melted the stubborn
hearts Of the South Sea Manuans. Although
their three islands, which form the most eastern
part OF the Samoan group, were ceded to the
United States in December 1899, by an agree
EIent Of the powers, the Manuan chiefs refused
until a short time ago to recognize the Wash
ington government. They stnl insisted that
America only coral reef, and that Presi-
dent Roosevelt was a mere pygmy compared
with King Tuimanua, who ruled over twenty
six square miles Of land and fifteen hundred
pcope. They ridicued the natives of the neigh
boring island Of Tutuila. and called them FISH
skinned" for having sworn allegiance to the
Americans soon their masters hoiit5d
the shirt and trousers" BY the shirt ard
trousers" they mean the American flag
Finally, the naughty Manuans decided that
they were In the wrong. They discovered by
ami by that the paicfaces made them work
not fer punishment, but to obtain things hich
added novelty to life. They learned ,hlt the
.opIa or kernel of the cocoanut, which they paid
in taxes was not TO buy more wives ior their
Iuiors. but TO make the roads easier 10 travel,
and the beaches less dangerous for their beats
knd after having drunk great many gall

coding their islands to the Americans. The ed

Underwood, and it reached the Navy Depart
ment few days ago.

United States, all OF which have an area OF
eighty square miles, and q combined population
of six thousand, the three ;Iiii,h constituted
the Manuan group have the least TO do with the
outside world. Ocean steamships do not touch
at their ports, and only and then boat
sails from Pago Pago, the American capital in
TutuiIa, the seventy miles of sea that lie
between. In the Manua Islands, therefore, the
ancient customs and traditions of the Samoans
have been best preserved.

4 GOOD EXAMPLE OF GASCON4DE.

II is rumOred that Cornelius Vanderbilt, on
account Of his friendship with the Kaiser. viii
soon be appointed to an important diplomatic
post in Germany.
rs there any truth in this story:' young
man said to Mr.. Vanderbilt the other day.
About as much truth" the other answered,
-as in the GascOn's story of his eyesight.''
What story is that?'' said the young man.
"Oh, that is a story that they tell in Paris as
a good example of GascOnade.''
Then Mr.. Vanderbilt went on:
"A GascOn sat before cafe in the environs OF
Paris. On the little white table that had been
spread for him in the open air there was a de-
licious omelet and a bottle OF red wine He was
breakfasting. his appetite was great, and while
he ate he boasted- bOasted of his courage, Of his
wealth. Of his good looks OF his fine clothes, and
so on indefinitely.
Finally he finished eating, and the maid
brought his coffee. He slipped it. smacked his
lips, and leaned back in his chair.

sight. Well. it is marvellous. 1t has been from
my childhood the envy of all. III give YOU an
instance Of its power. Let me see

visible in the distance.
"'Ah,' said the GascOn there are the towers
OF Notre Dame Well, now, on the top Of the
further tower l see distinctly mouse running

"He looked about him.
"'Can any one else see that mouse? he asked.
a fat man spoke up in dry voice.

shreds of the root being mixed with water and
then sifted out by means of little brOoms. When
all was ready, the taupou, who was waiting
some distance away in her hut, was sum
moned. Grasping the royal drinking cup, she
held it outstretched, and in this attitude she
walked straight to the King. Although she was
to hold her arm in this fatiSuing
posture for several minutes she did rot per-
nit one of it's muscles to quiver. Arriving Ee-
fore the King, she swung the bowl down and

from the chieftains' bowls to fill it, and then
presented it to his majesty. To the plaudits

 Frank G. Hc-;on died yesterday morn ! ing at the insane asylum of brain fe yer. having been taken there but a few days ago. MT. Horton was the farmer
 who lived west of the city and was l sent to the asylum in the belief that he ! had become insane through worry over a shortage of irrigation water. While there is no question but that his affiic ton had dethroned his reason, it seemS | that it was illness rather than worry i that had done the mischief. MT. Hor-
 ton was given careful attention but 1 grew worse till the end. He leaves d
 wife and three children and one other relative. Tom Horton. The funeral will be held under the auspices ot ! Phoenix lodge No. 3, A. O. U. w. of which he was a member. He came to l this valley about fifteen years ago from i England and some years ago he was married to Miss Ivy who lived west Of Phoenix. MT. Horton was an indus 1 trious and successful farmer. had an . eighty acre ranch and had 1t well stock | cd with cattle. He was 30 years old.

as matter Of fact the total stock of
gold in the world on the flrst of
January, I 19O3, was, as has been stated,
S5, $50, 6OO.O This leaves 81
$50, 285. $50 Of which there appears
to be no trace.
Has this vast wealth been lost In
the past four centuries, or Is any
large proportion Of 1t still in ex.
istence, a hidden reserve upon which
drains may be made In times Of
special demands Various answers,
1t is evident, might be made to such
an inquiry. Professor J. Laurence
Laughlin, Of Chicago, last year
hazarded guess as to the disappear
ance Of This large sum Of gold, which
he estimated in 1901 as amounting to
81, 800, 600, 900, hut which, on the
basis Of the estimate which we have
made for 1903, should be- more than
81, 800, 900, 900. Professor Laughlin
suggests that the immense sum is
largely held in reserve "hy great H..
nancial houses In Europe, and by
many other private bankers. the
character of whose business does not
require them to make public reports
of their specie holdings"
II Professor LauRhlin's guess Il
correct, this is a fact Of enormous
Importance. One thing is certain,
that the amount of gold in the
world must be very much larger thar
the estimates made by the director
of the mint show. In view Of thu
immense needs Of the various gov.
ernments of the earth during the
next few years, and Of the ell ort'
that are being put forth to put Chin,
and Mexico on the gold basis, th'
probability that there IL more gold II
reserve than appears In the record
should inspire increased confidence
