Lattis sat directly in front of the
wide window and looked with pensive
eyes out across the fair expanse of
meadow. Her pretty lips dropped
daintily at the corners and now and
then a culver swept over them.
Scarcely single sound broke the sum-
mer stiffness, and this served to in
tensify the girls thoughtful mood. Be-
fore her in swift panoramic review
passed the little commonplace events
of her life. There was not a thing
above the ordinary nor even below, in
fact, nothing worthy to remember or
forget. But now of late change had
come. A new sense of dissatisfaction.
a queer feeling of loneliness was steal
ing into her being and longing dan
gerously near a passion filled her
heart. She was too young and mex
perienced to analyze the cause of this
revolution. Impatiently she tossed the
bit of embroidery aside and arose.
"Mr. Duram,' she gasped as she
faced man who stood back of her
chair.
What ever were you thinking SO
deeply of, little one?" he asked, with
q smile.
81 don't know" she spoke gravely;
81 am feeling gloomy in spite of such
beautiful weather 1 believe l am
growing dissatisfied and just a little
lonely" Her voice sank to a whisper.
Then her sunny head dropped into her
hands on the arm of the deep chair.
The man made a movement as if to
draw nearer, but he controlled him
self and settled back to his former po-
Sition.
'Lattis," his voice was unsteady
with emotion, come into the garden:
you must be sad. 1t hurts met
hurts me- Then his hand went out
to her.
She raised her head suddenly and
met his look. Involuntary her hand
went to her heart, a burning blush
few to her cheek and mounted to her
very hair and receding left her white
to the lips. Like burst OF glorious.
binding light the truth came to her.
She snatched her hand from his,
sprang up and took a few steps back.
Then she heard his dear voice: 81
love you! l love you better than my
soul"
The girls. whole being responded to
his declaration; there was a delight
In his caress that swept all else from
her. Love took possession of her so
lay within this one man.
Sweetheart" he whispered, will
you come with me at once? Will you
trust me, dear, and come-now?"
''Now?" she asked TREMENDOUSLY.
eve can be married here tomorrow.
I love the place and 1 should like to
spend the happiest time of my life
here"
81 cannot marry you" the words
dropped harshly from his trembling
lips. The girl sprang from him and
drew herself to her full height proud
ly.
"And you dared to love me!< burst
In an angry passion from her. You
have won the one love of my life. you
have taken my heart and beat it cruel
ly, but you cannot trample it into the
dust. 1 will not let you, will mott"
''Lattis," he answered, stung to the
quick, ct have meant no wrong. God

MIR. SCOTT IS PLEASED
REFEREE HAS BEEN TO
 WHITE HOUSE.
Told by the President that Appointmcnt of Reese to Succeed Htmsef Has Not Ben Definitely
 Settled.
nv R. H. Watkins.

Washington, Nov. 23.-tSpecial. )-- Referee Charles H. Scott of Montgom- cry was at the White House today. He would say nothing about the result of his conference with the President. but was evidently pleased with the inter- view on the subject of the Marshalship and District Attorneyship for the Mid dle Alabama Division.
 It is understood that President Roose- welt stated that the selection of Dis trict Attorney was still open, and that in the matter of the United States Mar shal, the two referees, Joseph O.. Thompson and Charles H. Scott and Judge Thomas G. Jones should agree upon a man and he would be appointed.
 The referees favor Joseph Paxton Burton, Chief Train Dispatcher of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad at Montgomery. Burton handled the Pres ident over 360 miles of the road during his recent visit to Alabama. As he is a personal friend of Judge Jones it is believed here there will be no trouble in the three reaching, decision in his favor, notwithstanding Judge Jones had recommends previously names H. Jud- kins. t
 Jones had also recommended Warren S. Reese, incumbent, to succeed himself as United States District Attorney, but the Presidents announcement that the place was still open as far as a de- cision was concerned, taken with the manifest ratification this evening of Referee Scott, puts the position where 1t is still to be fought for.

TO DrsCREDIT WHITE.
Police Incite Popuiace to Massacre the
 Jews.

"
 Jews.
 Savannah. Ga, Nov. 2S-The nobility of Russia, writes Mrs. Brailowski who is in Odessa, to her brother, Dr. B. Cour- shon, of this city. are melting the police to stir up the peasant classes and make them prosecute and massacre the Jews. This. the writer says, is done to discrdit Count Witte and make it appear that Russia is in no condi- tion as yet for a Liberal government. The police are simply tools of the nobility, the writer states. and instead of trying to put down the riots, are really responsible for them.
 Mrs. Brailowski was in Odessa dur Ing the great massacre. She and three hundred other Jews escaped by taking refuge in a hotel run by a Christian and bribing the manager and the police to keep them from the mob's fury. The writer states that 12.000 people perished in Odessa in three days.
 Women and children were thrown from second and third story windows, men were murdered in the presence of their families and girls were outraged on the streets in broad daylight. The thoroughfares of city were stained with blood and some Jews who escaped to ships in the harbor were later cast into the sea to drown.
 Two other sisters of pr. Courshon re- side in Kieff, where they managed to escape up to November 10, the date of the latter by hiding in the home of a friendly Christian.

FRAUDS CAUSE MURDER.
Elections Swindle In New York Results
 In Deaths,

In Deaths.
 New York, Nov. 23-Elections frauds are believed by the police to have caused the murder last night of w F. Harrington in the little Naples Dance Hall and also the probably fa- tai injuries of Abraham Juckerman who was found with a fractured skull some distance away from the little Naples. The dance hall Is at 57 Great Jones street and is conducted by Paul Kelly, leader of an east side gang.
 From papers found on the dead man and from information obtained from nine prisoners, two of them women. who were arrested after the murder, the police learned that the quarrel started over election matters. One of the prisoners had a marked ballot of the last election in his pocket. Har- rington was killed in the bar room of the little Naples during a revolver bat tie which left the floors spotted with blood and riddled the pictures on the wall.
 Bartender Bernard Escotte. one of those under arrest, said the fight started when four members of the liberty association which is hostile to Kelley entered the room after mid night.

While no woman is entirely free from periodical suffering, it does not seem to be the plan of nature that women should suffer so severely. Menstrua- ton is 8 severe strain on Q woman s vitality. If it is painful or irregular something is wrong which should be set right or 1t will lead to a serious de- engagement of the whole female organ. ism.
 More than fifty thousand women have testified in grateful letters to Mrs. Pinkham that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound overcomes pain full and irregular menstruation.
 It provides a safe and sure way of es- cape from distressing and dangerous weaknesses and diseases.
 The two following letters tell SO con- viucingly what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound will dc for women, they cannot fail to bring hope to thousands of sufferers
 Miss Nellie Holmes of $40 N, Davi- sion Street, Buffalo, N. Y., writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
 "Your medicine is indeed an ideal medicine for women suffered misery for years with painful periods, headaches, and bearing down pains. I consulted two different physicians but failed to get any relief. A friend from tho East advised me to try Lydia E. Pink haru's Vegetable Compound. 1 did Ro and no longer suffer as did before My periods are natural; every ache and pain is zone and my general health is much improved I advise all women who suffer to take Lydia D.

 President James D. Porter and the women of the faculty, assisted by the Women's Association of the University of Nashville, received the guests in the Peabody Chapel, the function continu- ing from to p. m.
 Following the reception the evening session of the joint meeting occurred, the feature of which was an address by James E. Ament, President of the State Normal Schol at Warrensburg, Mo, his subject being The Fourth Profession.
 It was announced today that tomor- row the Executive Committees of the two organizations would hold special meeting for the purpose of considering a permanent alliance of the two asso- citations and formulating plans by which the associations could work conjunct- lively to advantageous results.
 In making the announcement Presi- dent Brown Ayers of the Association of Colleges and Preparatory Schools of the Southern States stated that the benefit both to the associations and to their purposes by holding joint conventions had been so obvious at that convention that 1t was considered by many as the wisest system of advancing education in the South.
 A notable feature of this mornings s session was the address of President D. H. Purinton of West Virginia. In the subject, The Functions and Rela- tions of State Universities he had a theme that afforded him scope for an instructive address on educational top ics, embracing many sides and phases of college worx.
 Reports of educational progress of Alabama, Georgia. Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi, South Carolina, Tennessee and West Virginia were read by the State Superintendents of Public In- structio1. Three committees on resolu- tions, nominations and necrology were appointed by President Charles D. Mo- Iver of the Southern Educational As sociation, who presided over the meet ing.

 coyy ZemntvO.


 Moscow, Nov 23.-By scant major ity of twenty the Zemstvo Congress to- day accepted the first section of the res oIution drafted by the Executive Com mittee declaring the solidarity of the Congress with the principles of the inn perial manifesto of October 30 and as- suring the Government of the support of the great majority of Zemstvos and municipalities in carrying into effect the liberties promised by the manifesto but laying down as the sole means of guaranteeing the authority of the Dou- ma and restoring order in the country the election of representatives by gen. eral, direct, equal and secret ballot, and the formal grant to the first Douma of power to elaborate a constitution for the Empire.
 The friends of Count Witte on the floor made a stout fight against the pro- vision for a direct ballot, the one con- cession which the Premier considers it impossible to grant, but this provision was carried over their heads by two- thirds majority.
 The resolution in it's final form is substantially the same as cabled yes- terday.

Washington, Nov. 23.--It was stated at the War Department today that while Congress would be asked to ap- propriate a total of $16.000,000 to meet the needs of the Panama Canal work to June 30 next, it Is not expected that Congress will appropriate 1t in a lump sum.
 What is expected by the canal off, cials is that Congress will pass bill making available a portion of this amount to meet the immediate wants of the Commission, because, it was ex" plained. Congress would probably in- vestigate to learn how the money thus far expended has been used before ap- propriating the full $16,000,O0O.
