told him he could be arrested for thinking murder, and that he was Q dangerous man, and that they would give him twelve hours to get out of France, and so we bought tickets for Switzerland, though what we came here for I don't know, only dad said 1t was a republic like America and he wanted to breathe the free air of mountains in the home of the Switzer- kase.
 Well. anybody can have Switzerland if they want 1t. I will sell my inter- est cheap. The first three days we out on the lake. said to be the most beautiful lake in the world. and we sailed on 1t, and rowed on it, and looked down into the clear water where it Is said you can see a corpse on the bottom of the lake 100 feet down. We hadn't lost any corpse, ex- cept the corpse of that old woman we run over at Nice, but we wanted to get the worth of our money, so we kept looking for days, but the search for a corpse becomes tame after awhile, and we gave 1t up. All we saw in the bot tom of the lake was a COW, but no man can weep properly over the remains of a cow. and dad saidSthey could go to the deuce with their corpses, and we just camped at the hotel till our money came. Say. that lake they talk so much about is no better than lakes all over Wisconsin. and there are no black bass or muskellunges in it.
 The tourists here are just daffy about climbing mountains and glasiers. and they talk about 1t all the time. and could see dads finish. They told him that no American that ever vis- ited Switzerland would be recognized when he got home if he had not climb ed the glaziers, so dad arranged for a trip up into the sky. We went 100 miles or so on the cars, passing along valleys where all the cows wear tea bells. and 1t sounds like chimes in the distance. It is beautiful in Switzer- land, but the cheese is something aw- full A piece of native Swiss cheese would break up a family.
 At night we arrived at a station where we hired guides and clothes. and things, and the next morning we started. Dad wanted me to stay at the station a couple of days, while he was gone. and play with the goats, but I told him If there were any places in the mountains or glazieEs any more dangerous than Paris or Monte Carlo.

washIngtcn Special to New York
 Miss Frances D. Willard. for many years head of the women's Christian Temperance Union. will be the first woman to have her life and deeds com memorated in Statuary Hall.
 Elliot Woods. architect of the Cap.- tol, today received information that within few days the model of Miss Willards statue will be sent to him for inspection. It will be presented to the government by the State of IIli- nois. It is necessary for Congress to accept the statue, but 1t is not believed there will be any opposition on the ground of sex.
 Each State Is allowed the privilege of presenting two statues to be placed in Statuary Hall. These are supposed to represent persons prominently iden- tihed with the State. Statues of Grant and Lincoln have been erected in the Capitol by the government and the State of Illinois did not care to dupii- cate them. Then Miss Willard was selected.

wanted to visit them. so he let me go. We'll. we were rigged Up for dis covering the north pole. and had al. penstocks to push ourselves up with. and the guides had ropes to pull us up when we got to places where we couldn't climb. I could get along all right. but they had dad on a rope most tongue Eun out and his face turned blue. But dad was game and don't you forget 1t.
 Before noon we got on top of a gla.
 xier, which is the fec of a frozen river. that moves all the time, sliding
 towards the sea. There was nothing
 but a hard winter. in summer, to the
 experience, and we would have gone
 back the same night. only dad slipped
 down a crevice about 100 feet with the
 rope On him, and the two guides
 couldn't pull him up, and we had to
 send a. lunch down to him on the rope
 and one of the guides had to so back
 to the village for help to get dad up.
 We'll, sir, think dad was nearer dead than he ever was before but they sent
 down bottle of brandy. and when he
 drank some of 1t the snow began to melt and he was warm enough to use
 bad language.
 He yelled to me that this was the | they were going to keep him there. ! yelled to him that one of the guides
 had gone for help to pull him out, and he said for them to order a yoke Of oxen. I told him that probably he would have to remain there until sp.Yng opened and that was going
 back to America and leave him there.
 and he better pray. done know whether dad prayed, down there in the bowels of the mountains. but he didn't pray when help came. and they finally
 hauled him up. His breath was gone. but he gave those guides some lan- guage that would set them to think | ing if they could have understood him. I and finally we started down the noun tain. They kept the rope on dad and every little while he would slip and
 slide 100 feet or so down the noun tain on his pants. and the snow would go up his trousers leg clear up to his
 collar, and the exercise made him so hot that the steam came out Of his | clothes, and he looked like a locomo- l tive wrecked in a snow bank blowing
 off steam.
 | It became dark, and I expected we would be killed. but before midnight we got to the station and changed our
 clothes and paid off the guides and 4 took a train back. Dad said to me, as I we got on the cars: Now, Hennery. l I have done this giazier stunt, just to show you that a, brave man, whatever | his age. is equal to anything they can | propose in Europe. but by ginger. this settles it, and now want to go where | things come easier. I am now going | to Turkey and see how the Turks wor- ry along. Are you with mel" Xou bet your life" says I. Yours truly. | HENNERY.

Of course have smelled sauer- kraut over here, but 1t all seems new and tame compared to yours. It may be the kraut here Is not aged enough to be good. but yours is aEed enough to vote and sticks to your clothes. Gee. but I just ache to get into your grocery and eat things, and smell smells, and then lay down on the coun- ter with the cat with my head on a pile of wrapping paper and go to sleep and wake up in America, an Amert- can citizen, that no king or queen can tell to hush up" and take off my hat when I want my hat on.
 You may wonder how we got out of Monte Carlo, when we had lost every cent we had gambling. We'll. we won- dered about 1t all night, and had our breakfast sent up to our room, and had it charged, expecting that when the bill came in we would have to jump into the ocean. as we had no gun to kill ourselves with. Just after breakfast, a duke or something. came to our room, and dad said 1t was all off. and he called upon the Dakota man to make a speech on politics. while dad and I skipped out We thought the duke, who was the mana ger of the hotel, would not under stand the speech, and would think we were great people. who had got stranded.
 The Dakota man started in on Democratic speech that he used to de- liver in the campaign of '96. and in half an hour the duke held up his hands. and the Dakota man let up on the speech. Then the duke took out a roll of bills and said: "Ze shentle- men Is what you call bust. Is 1t not so?" Dad said he could bet his life it was so. Then the duke handed the roll of bills to dad and, said it was tribute from the prince of Monaco, and that we were his guests, and when our stay was at an end, automobiles would be furnished for us to go to Nice. where we could cable home for funds. and be happy.
 We'll, when the duke left us, dad said: wouldn't that skin you?" and he gave the Dakota man one of the bills to try on the bartender. and when he found the money was good we or dered an automobile and skipped out for Nice. The chauffeur could not un- derstand English, so we talked over the situation and decided that the only

way to be looked upon as genuine au- tomobilists would be to wear goggles and look prosperous and mad at ev- erybody. We took turns looking mad at everybody we passed on the road. and got 1t down so fine that people picked up rocks after we had passed and threw them at us, and then we knew that we were succeeding In be- ing considered genuine, rich automo- bile tourists.
 After we had succeeded for an hour or two in convincing the people that we were properly heartless and purse proud, dad said the only thing we needed to make the trip a success was to run over somebody. He said nearly all the American automobile tourists in Europe had killed somebody and had been obliged to settle and sup port a family or two in Frnace or

 Governor Vardaman, in discussing the question Of holding the States cot ton. this afternoon made the following statement:
 Believing that the price for which cotton is selling today is below the cost of production, and that the low price was brought about by the persistent hammering of the bears, perfectly organized. the Board of Control has determined to cooperate with the cot ton planters of the South by withhold Ing from the market 200 0bales of the States cotton. The Board of Control has determined also to plant more corn. peas and other feed-stuffs. and to cut down the acerage in cotton for the pre- sent year. It is our purpose to raise everything on the penitentiary farms that the convicts eat, except a little sugar, coffee and -four. We win pur- chase lot of mares. and 1t is our pur- pose to raise all the mules and horses used on the States property. We have a fine lot of hogs, and 1t Is our pur- pose to use all the meat.

we were, the woman In a faint, the peasants gathering around us with scythes and ralxes and clubs, demand ing our lives. The bloody-faced wo-. man was taken into a home, the crowd held us, until finally a doctor came. and after examining the woman said she might live, but 1t would be tight squeeze. We wanted to go on, but we didn't want to be cut open with a scythe. so finally man, who said he was the husband of the woman, came out with gun, dad got down on hie knees and tried to say a prayer. the Dakota man held up both lands like it was stage being held up. and I cried Finally the chauffeur said, in broken English. that the husband would set- tie for $40o. because he could pay the funeral expenses, get another wife for halt the money and have something left to lay up for Christmas. As the mans gun was pointed at dad, he quit praying and gave up the money and agreed to send $50 a month for eleven years. until the oldest child was of age.

A story that has a sequel is always the best, and I hope to die If the po- lice of Nice didn't tell us that we were buncoed by that old woman and that the chauffeur was in the scheme and got part of dads money. The way they do 1t is to wait till dark, and then roll the woman in the dust and put some red ink on her face. and she pre- tends to be run over. and the doctor is hired by the month. and they aver- age $500 night, playing that game on automobile tourists from America. After the woman is run over every night, and the money Is collected, and the victims have been allowed to go on their way, the whole community gathers at the house of the injured woman and they have a celebration and a dance, and probably our chauf- feur got back to the house that night in time to enjoy the celebration. suppose thousands of Americans arc paving money for killing people tha, never got a scratch.

from the lack of facilities for trans porting foodstuffs to the front is part ly shown by the request which came from General Kuropatkin q few days ago. asking that eighteen or twenty trains daily be added to those already crossing Siberia and entering Man. chufia over the Siberian Railway.
 Japan also has the advantage of having her troops better equipped than her opponent. The reserves of Russia are not all supplied with mod ern rifles. Some of the regiments were fitted out years ago and new arms have not entirely replaced those of the old styles.
 On the other hand, Japan's forces go to the front with guns and arms of the latest type. The preparedness of Japan for the war is shown em- phatically in the better equipment of her forces.

Little Frances Marie Knowlton Is the dsugh- fer of pr. E. W. Knowiton, the discoveref of this great hair-growing remedy. and her beauti- full hair was grown wholly by the use of this great tonic.
