His Treasured Sentiment.


She was beautiful girl, and. he was a
handsome youth with military bearing.
They sat together in a secluded corner
under the palms that had been hired for the
occasion from the florist. The music was
not loud enough to distract their thoughts
or disturb their conversation. He was talk
ing in earnest tones, and evidently trying
to suppress his emotions. But they were
too strong for restraint and he burst out:
IF you would only say some little word
or give me some sign that can recall when
!! get to the Philippines 1t would be SO COM
forting. 1 shall be sure then that you are
not etirely Indifferent, and that thought
will brighten my lonely hours"
do you understand Italian?" she inquir-
ed innocently.
Not a word" he answered
IF tell you something in italian will
you be satished?' she whispered in a soft,
sweet voice. :
Very well, then. listen" Placing her
hand upon his shoulder. she whispered.
'Quarente cinco via Palestraf' and she
sighed deeply and turned away.
That's dago. all right" he answered, just
as SOME one came UP to claim her for the
next dance.
The words burned themselves into his
brain. They grew to have rhythm like the
fragment of an old song, and he used to
repeat them over and over to himself as he
sat on the deck of the transport crossing
the wide Pacific When he lay in his tent
in the mountains of Mfndanao the rustling
leaves fitted into the melody; he heard 1t
In the murmur of the brook and in the
pounding of the surf upon the sands. They
were dago words to be sure and he hadn't
the slightest idea Of their meaning to the
rest Of mankind, but to him they meant
everything-lOve. confidence and hope, and
the sweetest tones that human lips can ex-
press
One day on hike through the forest of
Mindanao he got confidential with her
brother, who was one of his comrades. AS
they sat In the shade of far-spreading
sycamore eating their bacon and hard tack
he casually asked IL they taught Italian
at the military academy.
Sure! We got dose of it In the third
year. but we soon forgot all we learned

1T is positively asserted tAat the
persons who fred upon the troops
were disguised policemen and pur-
posely provoked the troops. The city
is a dismal sight. Streets are filed
with Cossack patrols and flying de-
tachments of the red cross which fol-

The firing has been uninterrupted the
whole day and still continues as this
dispatch is filed. Many hundreds
have been killed or wounded.
Cossacks Attack Militia.
"The Cossacks attacked the student
militia, which is courageously trying
to stop the bands who are massacring
and pillaging, principally in the Jew
ish quarter. The looters openly d.
vide the goods, the Cossacks in many
cases participating in the proceeds of
the robberies.. The rector of the uni
versity has sent telegram to Count
Witte imploring him Immediately to
dismiss Governor Reinhardt, who Is
held responsible for the outbreak, as
otherwise catastrophe is unavoidable.
Count Witte's answer has not yet
been received.
"The city Is in dreadful state of
panic. Even the telegraph Offices
were closed most of the day, for the
first time since they opened.

This outbreak is believed to inaug.
urate series of earnest demonstra.

lice having incensed the labor party
and determined them to press their
demands at any price.

1t is stated on good authority that
Emperor Francis Joseph has decided
to grant universal suffrage to Austria
and has instructed the premier, Bar
on Gautch Won Frankenthurn, to draft
a measure on a comprehensive basis.
The decision Is attributed to the en-
peror's desire to satisfy the socialists
and to at the same time impress the
coalition.

plea Attorney Miller hopes 20 estab-

packers that they should testify and
produce evidence without being sub

they had been subpoenaed and taken
the oath.
The allegation of an agreement be-

General Pagin, and it was said tonight
that Secretary Garfield had been ask

Howard denies that he knows any
thing about the cutting up of the

a word. Chief Inspector Watts of
Boston is on his way here with wit

tow of 10 empty coal barges in the
narrow confines of He'll Gate tonight,

band, said tonight that Captain John
son did not stop after the collision,
but continued on his way.

taken to Portland.
