TWO AND THREE AND ONE.

O~

first they began to drift away from
each other and to cultivate a diamet-
rically opposed set of interests.
With constant and unfailing success
in all his business operations, Stuart
did not relax his devotion to their pro-
motion, but rather became every day
more and more absorbed in them.
His wealth increased by leaps and
bounds, and a statement made by him
on the witness stand, viz, that he
could not. tell from day to day with
in $5000,000 of what he was actually
worth, was perfectly true.
Mrs. Stuart devoted herself more
and more to purely social life, and
found in this some qualification of the
same love of excitement which actu-
ated her husband in his stupendous OPP
erations on Wall street.
Both were envied by the world in
general, yet neither felt that they had
achieved such happiness as to be fit
objects for the direction of envy.
With the birth of their child, they
seemed drawn closer together for a
time, but this did not last The child
SlcN anu lnIlNcN, Dul tilc hOAhCi, az
sorbed in her social duties, and the
father in his business, saw little of it.
The child was a boy, and for him
Stuart cherished great ambitions. AS
he had himself taken up the work laid
down by his father, and increased the
family fortunes to tremendous size,
so this son of his would in time take
up the work and make the name of
Stuart rival that of Rothschild in the
markets of the world.
Yet in tire midst of all his successes
Stuart would often stop and ask him
self if the game was worth the candle
He read SchOpenhauer occasionally
and was much impressed with what
this philosopher had to say upon the
inevitable loneliness and isolation OF
the human soul.
WAS this isolation inevitable?'
Stuart asked himself. And he an
swered himself that but one thing
might prevent it, and that one thing
was-love.
Then he laughed at himself for his
folly. Was not his wife the most truly
admirable woman he had ever known
And did he not love her?
yet we are not one, as we should
be, to escape that isolation. We are
two-or, rather, three, since we boil
love our child so dearly" he rea

ENDS TROUBLE !
WITH SUICIDE
Publisher of the New Yorker
Throws Himself Under a
Subway Train
HAD BEEN ARRESTED
As Result of an Article Which Involved
Miss Alice Roosevelt, Congress-
man Rhinock and Others.

Cincinnati Ohio, Aug. 4,-The tragic
death of Robert w. Criswell in New
York City by throwing himself under
a subway train last night, following
the complaint made against his paper,
the New Yorker for publication of an
article involving Congressman Rhi-
mock, of Covington, Kentucky, Miss
Alice Roosevelt and others, has led
to the supposition that it was case
OF suicide by the results of that pub
lication. Congressman Rhinock reach
ed Cincinnati today from a brief alb
sence. He said he was shocked by the
news. 1T was probably suicide" he
said, but | do not believe that the
charge which | filed against him
prompted the act, for Criswell knew
there was nothing against him to fear
in my case. Affairs that the public
have not been informed of, | think,
prompted the deed. AS a matter of
fact, | do not believe it is revealing
a secret now to say that since the
and his arrest on the COM
plant / made, Criswell has been sum-
moned to the district attorneys Office
half dozen times ON cases entirely
ulstinct from mine. | believe Criswell
saw himself hopelessly enmeshed and
died to end it all"

New Quarantine Orders May
Bring Federal Government
Into Action
STOP THROUGH TRAFFIC
Southern Pacific Trains Ordered Not
to Run in the Parish gf CaIcasieu
in Louisiana.

New Orleans, Aug 1.-THE extreme
measure which some of the country
districts are taking to guard them
selves from yellow fever threatens to
put stop to traffic and may bring
the federal government into the fever
situation. The most radical action
thus far taken is that of the police
board of Calcasieu, the second largest
parish in the state 1t has passed res.
olutions ordering that all traffic travel
and intercourse between Calcasieu
and points east, north and west, shall
allowed to enter the limits Of the par
ish until further orders. In conse-
quence, the Southern Pacific Railway
has been ordered to run no more
trains through Calcasieu, which means
the abandonment of the through SER
vice of the line to the west. Although
the report of 54 new cases in the pre-
ceding "a hours would ordinarily have
a tendency to cause alarm here, the
people here find assurance in the anal
ysis of the detailed report by the
board of health. 1t is shown that of
the 54 cases, 29 were rooted out of
concealment by the health board.
Missouri Quarantine is Extended.
st. Louis, Mo-, Aug. 4.-The quaran-
tine order issued by the Missouri
health board against the districts af
fected by yellow fever, will be en-
forced along the eastern borders of
the state as far north as st. Louis,
along the entire southern border and
along the western border as far north
as Kansas City
Forcing Passengers to Ride in
Screened Coaches.
New Orleans, Aug. 4.-The new cas-
es at noon today are II: deaths to
noon, A; total cases, 449; total deaths
to date, Sc. No reports of new cases
or of deaths from outside of New Or
leans have been received by the Asso-
ciated Press today and this seems TO
indicate that the authorities outside
of New Orleans have the situation well
in hand The train service on the
Southern Pacific and the Louisville &
Nashville has been disturbed by the
quarantine regulations. The Southern
Pacific has its entire service discon-
tinued on the main line and the
Louisville & Nashville trains going
south will be stopped at Mobile and
the occupants transferred to screened
coaches for the rest of the journey.
The Illinois Central is stopping all its
south bound trains at Harahan, La,
where a transfer is made to screened
coaches. Though the armed forces of
Mississippi and Louisiana have been in
touch for twelve hours, there has been
no reports of collision and the situa-
tion is regarded as acute.

st. Paul, Aug. 4.-Perishable freight

st. Paul, Mimi, Aug. 4.-Rumors of

there has been no particular damage

threatens to become serious shortly.
All nOn-union operators sent here by
the Great Northern Railway were to-
day forced to leave their keys and the

are running, but no extra freights.

DENVER & RIO GRANDE
BRIDGE MEN ON STRIKE

The bridge men on the New Mexico
division of the Denver & Rio Grande
Railroad went out on strike last night
as per instructions from the head
quarters of the union. The number OF
men affected by this order is unob-
tainable at present. The men of the
New Mexico division deserve the ap-
probation of the railroad officials and
the travelling public because of their
action of yesterday. The strike was
ordered for yesterday morning but ow-
ing to the section men being already
out, and a washout on the road near
Embudo, the bridge men volunteered
to give their services to the company
until the damage could be repaired.

SANTA re COUNTY BONDS.
New York Holders May Take LEGAL
Steps to Collect Delinquent
Interest Coupons.

The following dispatch from New
York TO the Denver Republican is OF
interest to the people of this county:
New York, Aug. 2.-Santa Fe Coun
ty, New Mexico, whose Indebtedness
amounts to $1,000,0O0 may be forced
into the hands of a receiver if it fails
to satisfy the holders of its bonds, who
are taking steps to enforce the pay
ment of principal and interest due on
which the county has defaulted.
wv. N. Coler & Co., and Moore &
Schley of this city are the principal
holders of the securities, which are
known as railway aid bonds, having
been issued to encourage the construc-
tion of railroads through the county.
1t is said that Congress may be
from going into bankruptcy, as while
its Indebtedness amounts to 81 900, 900,
its assessed valuation is less than $2,-
100000. Congress has validated the
bonds, which were at one time pro-
nounced illegal.
'The New York bonding interests
have been making vigorous efforts to
collect the Indebtedness. Charles A.
Spiess, of Las Vegas, who represents
w. N Coler & Co, recently obtained
a judgment against the county. Levi
Spiegelberg of this city, who repre-
sents another group of bondholders,
has obtained temporary mandamus
to the Santa Fe County Board of Com.
missioners, directing them to levy a
tax to pay the principal and interest
on county bonds issued in 1882. 1t is
said that efforts are being made to eff,
feet a compromise at 60 cents on the
dollar.
"The situation in regard to the coun.
ty of Santa Fe bonds is said to be sim.
liar to the case of the Wilkes County,
North Carolina, bonds, on which the
county defaulted payment. w. N.
Coler e Co. adopted the method of
putting the county into the hands of
a receiver. They were successful in
their suit, which was decided by the
United States Supreme Court in 1904"
The above is not exactly correct
Coler & Co. and Moore & Schley, who
hold over half of the bonded indebted
ness of this county, including delin.
quent coupons, and also large judg-
ment for delinquent coupons, have not |
yet brought suit, and therefore they |
have not yet obtained judgment. 1t is
understood that Charles A. Spiess of
Las Vegas, has been retained as their
attorney That they may do so in the
near future. is very likely. The prin
cipal of the bonds in question is not
yet due, and hence the bondholders
can do nothing in that line. The Board
of Commissioners of this county for
two and a half years has endeavored
to bring about a settlement which is
deemed just and fair to all concerned;
the bondholders, that is, the leading
ones, so far have not cared to accept
the plan proposed by the County Com
This is the situation as II
now stands.
