Young white warrior at the fort. The
old man consented finally to refuse the
offer made By the young warrior, and
promised to send him homei in the morn

The young fellow seemed greatly dis
tressed when old Arrowhead dismissed
him, and went away reluctantly. Two
days later he came back again and. seiz-
ing the girl while her father was absent
looking after his focks, carried her away
iato the mountains. Pursuit was made
as soon as possible and the trail of the
young warrior followed as long as it
could be found.
Several days elapsed and then, late
one stormy night, kitty" made her ap-
Dearance at her fathers hogan, having
escaped from the lodge that had been
built for her in the mountains. Her father
was overjoyed al her return and assured
her of future protection, but Kitty" was

throw herself at the feet of the officer as
his wife, or mental, as he might choose.
The old man consented at last and rode

The girl turned deathly pale as she lis

and would have fallen to the floor but
for the assistance Of her father. A mo-

great clatter of horses feet was heard at
the door. and presently the young war

WHENCE FURS come
VALUABLE LITTLE ANIMALS
SCATTERED FAR AND WIDE.
Skins of Great Worth Obtained by
Trappers at Risk of Their Lives
Creatures with Expen-
sive Coats.

C,ntcs tell us that we never can know
n fur by the name it sells under, there
now being such perfection in the art Of
dveing and treating skins that are to
masquerade as something very differ
ent from their humble real selves. But
though. doubtless, in the fur business
there are shams galore, yet the valuable
~fir-bearing animals are by no e ex-
tiDct.
History and romance give added
worth to the ermine, the fur that for so
long has been in favor with royalty; but
to our way of thinking it is by no means
chief among beautiful furs, and it is a
rather trying to wear, its dead white
ness. unrelieved by the black tips, would
be almost impossible for the average
complexion. Many people think the err
mine is naturally dappled with black,
but this is not the case, for the little ami

tured, is pure white, save the tip Of It's
tail, which is very black, 1t takes num-

hence, if as the result OF the macadam
or country road pavement" placed
on State street eleven years ago, both
ground values and business interests
increased fully 100 per cent, is it not
fair to assume that by putting an up
to-date pavement on State street the
tendency would be toward a still
greater Improvement and that as a re-
suit both ground value and business
interest would increase. L think this
is a fair conclusion to arrive at and
those who are against the improve
men should show their hand and not
seek to knockout" the improvement
from purely nonseusical motives.
Those opposed to having an asphalt
pavement laid claim that it is not a
suitable or durable pavement, and
they naturally favor brick. Now, if
those people really prefer a brick
pavement, why don't they petition to
that effect. The writer is in doubt as
to whether asphalt or brick would
best suit the purpose. but l do not
raise the cry that brick is the best for
the purpose Of killing the proposed
asphalt pavement or vice versa. Let
us then look to our own interest, let
us put State street in an up-to-date
condition. and is the natural result IN
up-to-date city directory will follow.
In conclusion will say that while [
have no desire to drag personalities
into this affair, yet it has been re-
ported to me that Mr.. p. n. Kennedy.
the author of an up-to-date city dir.
ectory, is opposed to the coutNm-
plated improvement of state street and
is seeking signature, to a remon-
STRANGE against said improvement. ]
cannot believe this Of our friend as [
think Brother Kennedy is the possess
or of far too much mental sa@aeity as
to place himself before the public as
the a~dvocator Of an up-to-datc city
directory, a mere minor matter and
he entirely out of date as regards the
Improvement ofssthe thoroughfare on
which he resides which is a highly
important matter. ! cannot think This

have the the brother kindly uncover

In summer the ermine is a sort Of ma

PLEA FOR THE
NEW PAVEMENT.
Correspondent Writes About
State Street and Other City
Matters Of importance.
EVENING NEWS:

1ANAAbNA - '
In your issue of recent date, my
esteemed friend and fellow-citizen,
Mr.. p. N. Kennedy, took occasion to
dwell on the need of an ~up-to-date city
directory. Mr.. Kennedy handled his
subject very able and no doubt is
sincere in his desire to give Perth
Amboy this much-needed improve
ment.
To my mind, however, there r
certain other matters that should take
precedence over a mere trivial matter,
such as the proper compilation OF the
city directory. My friend Kennedy
must be conversant with the fact that
b efore we can expect to have an up
to-date city directory, it is essential
that we should have an up-to-date
city. To accomplish this great need,
our people must in themselves try and
be up to date in all matter pertaining
to their own interests. They must see
to it that none but up TO date men be
placed at the head of u city govern
ment, they must insist that none but
capable men should be appointed to
the various positions of public trust.
and for every dollar expended they
receive it's equivalent in return.
Now, being DESTROYS OF advancing
my own interests, 1 Will state that /
am in favor OF any Improvement that
would tend to advance the interests Of
the people of Perth AmboF, Perth
Amboy's best interests are my best in
t%erests, and anything that would be of
benefit to the city as n whole would
be Of benefit to me as an individual.
Hence when any Of our good citizens-
through the peoples medium-the
press-point out our shortcomings it
must be taken as a distinct sign Of
improvement, even though the matter
at hand only relates to q mere minor
matter such as the proper compilation
of the city's directory.
I have often wondered and / confess
that am somewhat surprised at the
action of some of our men of brains,
who will take up and write an elabor-
ate article on matters of small move
ment while matter of vital interest,
matters of the greatest importance to
Perth .imboy and its people are left
in the back ground. 1T really does
seem that Il men of brains like to

 Secretary Hay has profted greatly by the treatment he underwent at Bad Nauheim, but by order of his phy- sician he is observing a very strict regimen. which will compel him to re- frain from accepting any invitations or the making of social and official en- agreements. He will observe the sar1e quiet as health precaution during his brief stay in London preparatory to sailing for the United States.

They were on their way from Middlebury to South bury, when they met an automobile and 1 the pair of horses broke into a run. On the hill rein broke and the horses, freed from control, took the side of the road and the carriage struck a tree, throwing both the occupants out.
 Mrs. Baldwin was cut on the head
 and both her arms were broken. Mir. Baldwin had bad scalp wounds and was
 unconscious for several hours after the accident. Both were taken to the Wa I tterbury hospital.

CzAR DISTRESSED.
News from Naval Fight Upsets Him
 Summons High Officials.

St. Petersburg. May 29-2:15 a. m.-In this momentous hour the emperor, the
 admiralty, and the Russian public are waiting breathlessly for the Japanese
 to furnish authentic news of the fate of Vice-Admiral Rojestvensky and his l fleet in which the hopes of the Russians are centered. The official disposition is
 to construe Tokio's silence favorably,
 but at the same time the strategic req son for such silence is recognized.
 The public, after the premature ju- bilation of Saturday night, is inclined to
 reverse it's attitude and to become pes simistic. The report sent to Washington by the
 American consul at Nagasaki of the sinking of five Russian Warships, in- lcluding battleship and repair ship, was accepted as the most definite and the most authentic piecs of news re-
 ceived up to midnight, and undoubtedly
 made bad impression. The fear was l depressed that the battleship sunk
 might have been Rojestvensky's flag | ship, the Kniaz Souyaroff, on which
 the Japanese would undoubtedly con lcentrate their fire. The sinking of the irepair ship Kamchatka, which was filled with the most modern machinery, | might, 1t was thougfS, prove later to be
 a more severe loss than a Warship but at the admiralty, where crowds congre- gated Sunday afternoon and evening | the opinion was expressed that if Ro-
 jestvensky had cleared the gateway to
 the sea of Japan with no greater loss I%xy AI..N Av11e rif.aT n
 consul, the passage had not been dearly
 purchased, especially if later reports should prove that the Japanese losses
 were anything like equal proportions. Probably no one in Russia displayed lsuch intense anxiety as the emperor.
 Early Sunday morning he summoned
 Grand Duke Alexis, high admiral; Ad- miral Avellan, head of the Russian ad-
 miralty department, and Admiral Wire
 nius, chief of the general staff of the navy, to Tsarskoe-Sela and remained
 closeted with them up to a late hour night night, impatiently awaiting infor-
 nation and boring over charts.
 I The only news received by his nla- | jesty from Russian sources was dip- patches from Russian agents and con- suls at Chinese ports which could give nothing but current rumors. The only time the empefor left the members of his cabinet was to attend services in the chapel of the Alexandra palace. when the chaplain prayed for Rojest- vensky's success.
 l The emperor was greatly distressed when the washington dispatch contain- | ing the information sent by the consul lat Nagasaki arrived.
