HIS DAY OF TRIUMPH
"NEWSIE" CAME BACK TO NATIVE
TOWN A HERO.
Case Who're the Mills Of the Gods
Ground Slowly, but Did Their A.
pointed Work WeII-Story That
Carries a Moral Easily Perceived.

In his early days Alexander F.
Irvine, the preaoher-socialist of New
Haven, was a newsboy in Ireland.
One night when the slush and snow
was ankle deep the lad, with a bundle
of papers under his arm, stopping In
front Of rich mans house, looked
wistfully through the window at the
scene of comfort within. A lovely
fire was burning in the CRATE, and
in its ruddy glow sat the members Of
the family in little circle.
The newsboy's feet were bare, fol
he was the son Of poor man and had
eleven brothers and sisters. Within
the room he saw bright and happy
children no older than himself, and
he sighed as he thought how nice It
would be to warm his cold toes at
that fire. But that was out Of the
question.
After enjoying the warmth mentally
for several minutes he plucked up
courage to knock at the door, for ha
surely thought he could sell q paper.
The man of the house answered the
knock, and when he saw on the door.
step only ragged newsboy he was
so irritated at being disturbed from
his comfortable chair that he seized
the lad by the collar and threw him
in the gutter.
The poor little chaps thin cloth.
ing was saturated with the muck, and
his precious bundle of papers was
ruined Gathering himself up and
with a rueful look at the papers, the
shivering boy took a last peep at the
circle by the flreside, and, muttering
to himself, perhaps you'll be sorry
for this some day." trudged off for
lornly to his home.
Years rolled away and the former
newsboy, now a strapping, broad
shouldered young man, returned to his
native town from campaigning in the
Sudan. He had won distinction and
been mentioned in dispatches for con-
spicuous bravery. His fellow towns
men were proud Of him, and because
the young soldier was highly intelli-
gent and well informed he was in
vited to lecture on the Sudan ques.
ton. On the night Of the lecture tho
town hall was crowded to the doors
and in the front row of all sat q
group Of newsboys that the soldier
had particularly asked to be present.
At the close of the lecture as is the
British custom, several men made
speeches highly laudatory of the lee.
turer, and a vote Of thanks was pro-
posed. The first man to second 1t was
the man who years ago had hurled the
newsboy from his door. In replying
to the vote of thanks, tho soldier
pointed to the newsboys and said: II
am going away soon, but If you have
any kindness in your hearts for me,
be good to these newsboys." And
then he told the story Of his expert
ence years before. Cries of what a
shame!" came from different parts Of
the room.
The man who had wronged the
former newsboy approached the lee
turer to shake him by the hand.
"Alexander," he said, who could have
done such thing?"
Irvine looked him calmly In the eye
an; answered, "You did it."-New

WIDEST RUMORS ARE HEARD
Report In St. Petersburg Says That Every Fifth One of the Mutinous Sailors Will Be
 Hanged.

Odessa. July 1, 10:5O p. m.-Matters ap- pear to be becoming increasingly serious. Although there Is a flood of wild rumors in circulation. it is difficult to ascertain the truth of any of them.
 According to one of these rumors, which is from an apparently reliable source, a deputation of one man from each of the mutinous battleships, the Kniaz Potemlxine and the Georgi PoDiedonosotz, today vis- tied the governor general and notified him that unless the city capitulated to the mutineers within forty-eight hours the warships would begin bombardment
 Strong forces of military guard every street leading to the harbor, and the public is not permitted to approach any point overlooking the harbor or the sea, even in the suburbs where the garrison have been strengthened by the addition of four battalions of infantry and a battery of artillery, the latter of which has mounted heavy guns on the ground in Alexander park commanding the har- bor and roadstead.
 Many fears are expressed that the re- mainder of the Black sea squadron, now lying high and consisting of two battle ships, two cruisers and six torpedo boats. will join in the mutiny.

He chose the former alternative and left at once.

MAY CALL ON TROOPS.
Japanese Strikers in Hawaii Are Caus-
 ing Much Trouble.

Washington, July 1.-The labor sit uation in the Hawaiian islands, where several thousand Japanese laborers on sugar plantatlD are on strike, has led to representations to the War De- partment that a call for the use of United States troops might be expect ed at any time, as the Japanese have shown an entire disregard of the po- lice.
