Observation-Disclosures d

IF the voice had been ordinary, the
idiot would probably have obeyed with
out fear: but, as 1t CHANGED, he was
frightened by this raucous cry, like a
beasts. and he turned to run away.
Instantly two shots were fired, and
Darrell heard the soldiers advancing.
The idiot had sprung out Of the road
and was running across the open
ground. Darrell, being too nearly In
the line of the soldiers, dared not re-
main. He got upon his feet and fed In
the same way that the idiot had taken.
Ii appeared that In the darkness they
both escaped the view OF the soldiers
at first. Darrell had run almost a hum
drcd yards before another shot was
fired. and 1t went wild. He reached
unframed the shelter of the bushes on
tue other side of the field and looking
back, could see no sign of his pnrsuers.
Turning TO continue his flight, he came
to n stream that looked too deep to be
crossed without swimming. He fol
lowed II toward the left through some
thick brush, from which he emerged
upon a smooth. sloping bank. 1t was a
spot upon which the starlight seemed
to fab with an especial radiance, per-
haps because Of the darkness from
which he he'd come. At any rate, Oar
rell saw the sluggish stream the droop-
ing trees beside II and the smooth
slope quite plainly and upon the grass
the figure Of man lying with his face
toward the sky. Ii was the idiot, Afu-
sef the Traveller, and he had come to
the end of his journey.

Darrell knelt beside him, hut guess

Darrell raised the mans head and
saw that his eyes were quite calm, not
restless, as they had been.

He looked up with smile, tried 10

without the appearance Of much pain.
Then. in a moment, the poor fellow
was but clay, the crippled soul set free
upon the wind Of the night.
Darrell laid him down and was about
TO cover him with the red cloak, but
upon n second thought he threw the gar
ment over bis arm and took up the pipe
with which Musef had amused the car
AVIAN. Some seconds later he had found
n place TO ford the stream, and as he
crossed he heard the Russian soldiers
calling to one another In the field.

HOW TO GAIN FLESH

The life of food is the fat

more real benefit from the
food; that is why cod liver
oil is a powerful builder of
flesh.
SCOTS Emulsion of pure
cod liver oil solves the prob
fem of how to take cod liver
oil. That is one reason why
doctors have been prescrib-
ing SCOTS Emulsion for all
wasting diseases, coughs, colds
and bronchitis for almost
thirty years.
One of the inducements
offered in order to substitute

Emulsion is the matter of

PERU WILL FIGHT.
Lima Government Never Has
Admitted Brazil's Claims.
ALTO PURUS AND YURA In DISPUTE
Country Is Sore Over Massacre of Pc
ruyians In Territory Claimed
by Both Peru and
Brazil.

LIMA, Peru, May 9.-The general
staff has ordered two line battalions
and one battery of machine guns to
proceed to Alto Purus by way of the
river Amueya to repulse any Brazilian
troops there may be in that territory.
One battalion, with two machine
guns, has been ordered to Chandless,
on the river Purus, to sustain Peruvian
sovereignty there.
The general staff has also ordered
that Iquitos be placed in a state of de.
Tense, that the harbor be mined and
that a division be formed there of
5000 men, which shall in certain cir
cumstances occupy Tabatinga and Ma.
naos, Brazilian towns on the Amazon.
The Peruvian legation has made a
statement to the following effect:
Peru has never admitted that Brazil
had any right whatsoever to the Alto
Purus and Alto Yura territory actually
ia dispute.
''The treaty of 1851 contains no rec
ognition of Brazil's rights, as alleged
by the Brazilian legation. The treaty
is one of amity and IN and
made no reference as to the territory
now in dispute.
"The Peruvian legation does not
know of any instance that can be cited
in which Peru admitted any Of Rrazirs
Perth Amboy evening news., 1904-05-09

pretended rights. On the cther hand,
office admit that the government at
Lima always has asserted its claims
and maintained its title over the region
in dispute.
According to late reports, it would
seem that the government of Brazil in
stead of framing its policy in accord
ance with the provision of its constitu-
ton, which provides for the settlement
Of international disputes by arbitra-
ton, has assumed Il hostile attitude
and taken steps by no means conducive
to the pacific solution it has pledged
itself to seek.
The Brazilian legations statement
that Peru took advantage of Brazil's
trouble with Bolivia to send military
forces to the headwaters of the rivers
Yurau and Purus is unwarranted as
Peruvian population always has ex-
listed there as well as small garrisons
to preserve order. According to press
reports, n of these Garrisons not long
ago was assaulted by 200 Brazilian
troops, with the result that some of
the Peruvians were massacred and
some made prisoners and taken to
Manaos, where the Brazilian officials
set them free, stating that neither the
central nor local governments were re-
sponsible for such assault. Such would
not have been the attitude of Brazilian
officials toward the Peruvian soldiers
had they thought for a moment they
had invaded Brazilian territory. Peru
today is DESTROYS of resorting to arbl-
tration without demanding previous
conditions, unnecessary to governments
really wishing to reach Il prompt, just
and pacific settlement of their differ
ences. This she can offer as the best
proof of her good faith and fraternal
sentiment toward her sister repub-
lies"

MOST WORSHIPfUL GRAND
MASTER AND BRETHREN
By D. A. Teller,

Through the Infinite wisdom and
goodness of our Supreme Grand
Master, we meet~at the annual COM
munication of this Grand Lodge,
where we greet with friendly hand
clasp old friends and make new ones.
At this time, when all is adorned
with beautiful garment of foliage
and flowers, we rejoice that the long
season Of winters cold has gone and
that the glorious warmth of summer
has come.
The Diamond Jubilee of this Grand
Lodge is an occasion when we should
be thankful for the progress our
beloved order has made lin this state
during the past, that our banners are
still waving in triumph, that the
blessed influences of morality,
brotherly love and truth, are elevat--
ing the men Of our land, building our
life into nobler humanity. While
our beloved Republic is at peace with
other nations, the bloody demon OF
war is raging lin the far east, where
the benign influences of masonic
teachings are practically unknown.
God speed the day when war shall
have become a thing of the past,
when the white dove of peace shall
visit every land and make her abiding
home there.
At this time, when our hearts are
filled with joy and thanksgiving for
the many blessings and comforts
lavished upon US during the year, and
for the glorious growth of our order,
these rejoicingS are mixed with sad
ness, for we miss many familiar faces,
into which it was pleasure to look,
a year ago.
Some, perhaps have removed to
other states, others have answered
the summons of the tyler death and
gone to everlasting refreshments in the
paradise of God.
When this Grand Lodge met in the
pleasant month of June last year, we
had the pleasure Of seeing and
meeting our only living past Grand
Secretary, Brother Geo. E. Hoskinson,
who was in attendance at all it's
sessions. Those of us who were here

CHOSE fellows down in Chicago in

settle the Wisconsin contest" re-
marked Col. George w. Bird, of
Madison, at the Plankinton shouse
yesterday. 81 am informed, however
that they only took fifty-nine seconds
to weigh the evidence and reach a
conclusion, and that there was a
great deal of disappointment on all
sides at the indecent haste with
which they settled the matter. They
ought to have at least waited, until
the council for the different sides had
an opportunity to withdraw before
they made up their verdict
