AGITATION HELD TO eE UNwlsE
Question Of Federal Supervision Of
surance Discussed.

Hartford, Conn, Oct. 26.-At a meet
Ing Of the state board of trade the re
port Of the committee of underwriters
on the proposed federal supervision oi
insurance was presented. The report
says the occasion for present action
on the matter Is due to letter upon
the subject from Senator Dryden ask.
ing for expressions Of opinion and an.
swers to his inquiries. The report
says that 1t Is conceded by all its ex.
ponents and by all the authorities that
federal supervision Of Insurance can
be accomplished In but one way, name
ly. by constitutional law declaring
insurance to be commerce and also
that II insurance Is not commerce con-
gress has no power to regulate it.
The whole theory of the proposed CEN
tralization of power rests on these
propositions.
The report of the committee was
unanimously accepted and resolutions
setting forth the views Of the state
board on the question of federal SUI
pervision were adopted. The board
believes that agitation of the matter
is unwise and that federal supervision
would not bring material benefit to
pOlicyholders.

1olande went back to her father, who,
though closely watching her, was stand
ing with the Grahams; and she told
them of the mission with which she had
been intrusted. At last the crowd began
to resolve itself into those who were 60
Ing and those who were remaining be-
hind. Mrs. Graham was in despair be-
cause of the non-appearance of her broth
er.
"Ill tell you what 1t Is" said Col.
Graham, II believe that he has never
heard that the ships don't stop at
Southampton now Never mind, Polly;
he can go overland if he wants to catch
US up at Cairo"
At Tillbury there was the usual scram-
BILE of getting the luggage transferred to
the noisy little tender. When, after long
delays, the tender was drawing near the
side of the huge steamer, of course all
eyes were turned to the decks above,
where the picturesque costumes of the
lascar crew were the most conspicuous
points of color.
There he isl can make him out"
observed Col. Graham, as he regarded
a group of young men who were up on

By this time everybody was scram
bling on the paddle boxes of the tender.
and from thence ascending to the deck OF
the steamer The Master of Lynn was
standing by the gangway, awaiting his
sister. He was a young man of four OF
five and twenty, slim, well built, with a
pale, olive complexion and a perfectly
-clean-shaven face; and he had the square
forehead, the well-marked eyebrows,
and the pleasant gray eyes with dark
lashes that his sister had.

~Chemulpo, who is AZ years old, gradu-
ated from the United States Naval
Academy at Annapolis in 1881. He
comes of a very old samurai family OF
Kaga, on the Japan Sea. His govern
ment picked him out as II of the
cleverest, most daring students Of the
Japanese Naval Academy and sent him
to this country to study. Before he
became rear admiral he commanded
the cruiser Matsushima and the first
class battle-ship Yashlma, sunk a year
before. During the war with China
he was a naval attache at the Japanese
embassy in Paris. Since his promotion
he has been chief of the bureau Of
naval intelligence of the navy depart
ment, a part of the general staff Of
the Japanese war office. 1t was he
who planned the great naval war game
of 1903 which was reviewed by the
Emperor at Kobe. Admiral Uriu's
wife Is a charming Japanese woman, a
graduate of Nassar, formerly Miss
Nagai, sister of one of the most prOml-
nent merchants of the empire.

ION Emilio de ojeda. before the gallant
marquis came on his errand Of chivalry
to America.
There Is another member of the
French embassy who bears a name re-
yered In ecclesiastical and secular his
tory-Count Antoine de Sala. He comes
from the same line of northern Italy
which produced that gentle saint,
Francis de Sales, Bishop Of Geneva,
beloved by all, whether orthodox Cath
ole or merely admirer of noble attrlb-
utes Of character and mind. st. Fran
els de Sales is the model of the perfect
Christian gentleman, and ec6ifslasti-
cally he is as much revered ast14hes-
terrified in the more worldly sense. Ellis
modern kinsman is a credit to the
name.
There are other diplomats who Dear
historical Count Oassinl, the
Russian ambassador and the dean Of
the corps, is the last of the Counts
Cassinl du Thury, ennobled In the early
years of the seventeenth century for
their astronomical achievements. The
family name will live In history as hav-
Ing produced the greatest number and
the most erudite Of modern readers Of
the stars. Another bearer Of a distin-
guished name Is Don Emilio de Ojeda,
who came to this country in 1902 as
minister from Spain and who will soon
return to Madrid to become under sec
rotary of foreign affairs. He is one Of
the strong links which unite the pres
ent with the distant past, for he is a
llneal descendant Of that gay cava-
lier, Hanuel Ojeda, the companion Of
Christopher Columbus. With his de-
parture Washington will lose one Of
Its most attractive figures. Itisinterest-
ing to note that his successor-Senor
Jacinthe de Caligny-is Of the same
stock as the noted Huguenot chief, Ad-
miral Coligny.

Chestnuts a Paying Crop.

The boys may be interested to know
that chestnuts prove n very profitable
crop. Experts claim that nm orchard
of chestnuts will bring greater returns
to the owner than m apple orchard
Of the same size, as the nuts are re-
tailed on the street corners at about
SO a bushel, while the Italian who
sells roasted chestnuts receives pay
for them at the rate of at least So
a bushel. The tree is one Of the most
rapid growers, and has been known
to bear fruit at five years of age.-St.

at the station? Why did you not tell
us? OF course, we thought you had miss
ed the train! l wish you would take
the trouble to let people know what
you are about. Let me introduce you
to Miss Winterbourne-Yolande, dear,
this is my brother Archie-Mr. Winter
bourne, my brother, Mr.. Leslie. Well,
now, what have you to say for yourself 2"
Not much" he said, smiling good
naturally, aud taking some wraps and
things from her which her husband had
selishly allowed her to carry. Il went
down to see some fellows at Chatham
last night; and of course | stayed there
and came over in the morning. Sorry |
vexed you. You see, Miss Winterbourne,
my sister likes platform parade; she likes
to have people round her for half an
hour before the train starts; and she likes
to walk up and down, for it shows off
her figure and her dress; isn't that so,
PollyT"
There was n great hustle and confusion
on board; friends giving farewell mes
sages, passengers seeking out their cab
ms; the bare-armed and bare-footed las
cars, with their blue blouses and red
turbans, hosting luggage on to their
shoulders and carrying it along the pas
sages.
Yolande stole away to her own cabin,
and carefully and r~eligiously opened the
little basket that held the flowers, to
see whether they might not be the bet
ter for n %sprinkling of water. They
were rather expensive flowers for a poor
woman to have bought. Yolande poured
some water into the wash-hand basin,
and dipped her fingers into it; and very
carefully and tenderly sprinkled the flow
ers over. And then she considered what
was likely to be the coolest and safest
place in the cabin for them; and hung
the basket there; and then came out
again-shutting the door, involuntarily,
with quietness.
She passed through the saloon and
went up on deck. Her father was still
there. He went down with her to the
saloon, and took his place In silence.
Yolande sat next to Mrs. Graham, who
was very laxative and merry. Young
Archie Leslie was opposite; SO was Col.
Graham. They were mostly idling; but

Yolande was hungry, and they were all
anxious to help her at once, though the
silent dusky stewards knew their duties
well enough.
By and by, when they were talking
about anything or nothing, it occurred
to the Master of Lynn to say:
II suppose you don't know that we
are off,
Mr.. Winterbourne quickly got up and
went to one Of the ports; there, undoubt-
eddy, were the river banks slowly, slow
ly going astern. He went back to his
seat, putting his hand on Yolande's
shoulder as he sat down.
"Yolande," said he, do you know that
we are off-really and truly going away
from Observation-Disclosures quit from its
shores?'
His manner had almost instantly
changed. His spirits quickly frightened
up. He made himself most agreeable to
Mrs. Graham; and was humorous in his
quiet, half-sardonic way, and was alto
gether pleased with the appearance and
the appointments of the ship. To fancy
this great mass of metal moving away
like that and the throbbing Of the screw
scarcely to be detected!
And at dinner, too, in the evening 1t
was a delight to Ioiande TO sit next him
and listen to his chuckles and his little
jokes. Care seemed to have left him al
together. The night, when they went on
deck again, was dark; but a dark night
pleased him as much as anything. Yo-
'ande was walking with him.
And then they sat down with their
friends: and Mrs. Graham had much to
talk about. Yolande sat silent. Far
away in the darkness a long, thin, dull
line of gold was visible; she had been
told that these were. the lights of Hast
lngs. 1t is a strange thing to sail past
a country in the night time and to think
OF all the beating human hearts it con-
tains-of the griefs, and despairs, and
hushed joys, all hidden away there In
the silence. And perhaps Yolande was
thinking most of all of the poor mother
who's name she did not know, whom
she should never see again-but whose
heart she knew right well was heavy
that night with its aching sorrow. 1t

Styles Put Into Vogue by Royalty to
Cover Physical Defects.

Cove Physical Defects.
Many of the fashions lnaugurated by
sovereigns have had most unromantlc
origins. Thus when Louis TX of France
promptly provided him with a wig,
saying: "Our bald kings have neve
been lucky, and it i'll BELTS a sovereign
that he should not be better provided
with flowing locks than a mendicant
at the gates of Notre Dame" And
forthwith every subject throughout
France, whether he required 1t or not,
donned a similar wig in loyal emula-
ton Of his king.
Henry Plantagenet, Duke OF Anjou,
had an eXcreScence on II Of his feet
which made the wearing of an Ordi-
nary shoe painful If not impossible, and
to hide his defect he wore shoes with
points two feet long, which speedily
became the rage. 1t was a different
motive which prompted Catherine Of
Braganza to start the fashion of wear
ing short skirts instead of the long
dresses then in popular favor. She had
small and dainty feet and was anxious
that others should have an opportun-
ity Of admirlng them. 1t was vanity,
too, which suggested to Isabella of Ba-
varia the wearing of low-necked dress
es, so that the fairness of her neck and
shoulders might be admired by all.
Edward VI was the first to wear silk
stockings in England, his first pair
being a present from Sir Thomas Ores
ham, who had imported them from
Spain, but it was Queen Elizabeth who
put on them the final seal Of fashion.
When Mistress Montague, one of her
tirewomen, presented her majesty with
a pair as a New Years gift in 1850 she
went into raptures over them, declar-
ing: 81 like silk stockings so well, be-
cause they are pleasant, fine and deli
cate, that henceforth l win wear no
more cloth stockings"

of a king to model fashion, when

Upon the oath Of April, 1864, Cover
nor Morton recOnvened the legislature
Of the State in order to obtain the au-
thority to borrow 100000 for the
provisioning and care Of the troops.
He displayed the greatest energy in
placing the troops in the field and in
providing for their %sustenance.
He gave permission to citizens of
Indiana to raise troops in Kentucky
and he allowed Kentucky regiments TO
be recruited from the population of
two of the southern counties Of his
own State.
When, in 1869, the Legislature Of the
State became Democratic, the Repub-
lican members withdrew, leaving both
houses without a quorum. In order to
carry on the State government Morton
took the extreme measure, and one
that brought him into the greatest
odium, the appointment Of a bureau
Of finance for the disbursement Of the
funds. They appropriated more than
a million dollars. The Supreme Court
condemned the proceedings Of the
Governor, but the State subsequently
hOnOred them as a war measure.
