Poor, misguided Margaret. It was
not in her to take her boy to her heart
to nestle his fair, curly head in her arms
and to kiss away the anger out OF his
honest gray eyes.
Il must not give way" she said W
herself; IF l let him think me weak he
will never respect me, or look up to me
again; l should lose my influence with
him." So all she said was: Young
people are always unjust, Roy, but II
you are sorry for your wild words, l
will say no more. All | meant was
that it will be better for you to think
less of Miss Laybourne, who is N no
way suitable to be your wife"
II cannot think less of her-because
she is all the world to me-"
Neither your father nor I will ever
hear of it. 1t is your cousin Felicia
whom you must marry, she is an heir
ess and a woman of talent and educa-
ton. Your uncle is ready to give her
to you, SO that the money and the bar
onetcy may be united. Your father de-
sires it earnestly; as to me, it is the wish
of my heart. Felicia is young and hand
some and clever; she unites all that can
be wished for in herself-it is to her that
you must look for a wife,

NEW REFRIGERATOR CAR SER.
VICE.
Rock Island Operates Cold Storage Carr
ON Established Schedules.

Rock leland Operates Cold Storage Carr
on Established Schedules.
Topeka.-The Rock Island has added
1900 new refrigerator cars to those
already in service, and has established
a regular schedule of runs, giving ez
cellent service from the most remote
portions of it's lines to all markets.
The most essential point which Is OF
interest to the small shippers Of perish
able freight at way stations along tho
road, is contained in the two rules pro
mulgated by this company which fol
low:
Freight charges on perishaBs
freight shipped in scheduled refrigera
tor cars will be the same as in ordi
nary cars"
"All refrigerator cars are well Iced
before starting and are re-iced in tran
sit when necessary"
The latter rule indicates that the
small shipper may send his perishabe
produce to market in refrigerator cal
at the regular rates which apply in an
ordinary car and no charges are made
to him for icing the car. The rail
road provides this service free of cost
to the shipper.
The company also undertakes to fur
nish special refrigerator car without
extra charge for consignments of 1000
pounds or over where no scheduled car
Is run.
Shippers may secure refrigeratG
cars from the company for carload
shipments free; the shipment will Do
consigned at regular carload rates the
same as if the consignment was sent
in an ordinary car. When shippers use
car for carload shipments the rate
is lower than that charged for less
than carload lots. Consequently icing
charges are assessed the shipper when
he uses a whole car. However, ong
the actual cost of ice and the work !
placing it in the car is charged. lNs
shipper has the privilege of icing lEI
car himself, in which case the rallrOA'
makes no icing charge.

new national life. Mr.. Takahira Is 4
fine example Of the diplomat and gen.
tleman of the Far East. His cul-
ture and training are many sided-he
is learned. in Chinese philosophy and
literature, he is a thorough scholar
in the intricate literature Of his own
country, and he speaks and writes
fluently in several European Ian
guages.
Mr.. Takahira is not of the titled
class-he has risen from the ranks.
Entering the imperial diplomatic serv-
ice in 1876, after a thorough educa-
ton at the Japanese capital, he was
appointed attache to the Japanese le-
cation in Washington, becoming Sec
Fetary of that legation in 1881. Two
years later he was appointed secre-
tary Of the Foreign office. Later, he
held number of important posts, in
Guiding those Of charge d'affaires in
Corea 1885, consul general at New
York 189D, minister resident to Hol-
land 1892 minister to Italy 1884,
minister to Austria 1885, vice minis
ter for foreign affairs 1890 and vice
minister to the United States 5000.
The Japanese minister Is a man Of
middle age, Of strong, well-built
frame, but broken somewhat from his
experience of last winter, when he was
operated on for appendicitis Tact
full and diplomatic. dignified diplo-
mat through and through, Mr.. Taxa
hira has creditably represented Jap
anese interests throughout the preseEE
difficult period of the war; He has
only courageous expressions Of appre-
citation for the admirable qualities Of
the Russian people, whom he under
stands thoroughly. He does not look
for peace in the near future, but says
that Japan is quite ready and pre-
pared to continue the conflict az long
as may be necessary. AS to the pos
sibility which has been suggested of a
Russo-Japanese alliance after peace
has been concluded, Mr.. Takahira de-
clares this can never be. The Japan
csc people, he points out, have been
educated, politically, along Anglo Sax
on lines, and it would be very difficult
to change this national bent. A Fran
co-Russian alliance might be possible,
but Russo-Japanese alliance never.
