The Talk of Peace.

The capture of Tie Pass. yesterday, apparently completes Oyama's- crush ing victory over Kuropatkin. This fresh reverse for the Russian armies must inevitably force the Russian gov ernment to consider the question Of peace.
 While official declarations from St. Petersburg and Tokio reiterate the declaration that the war will be con tfnued to the utmost limit of national strength. there is good reason to be- ueve that the defeat of Kuropatkin's army in Manchuria prepares the way to a settlement of the differences that brought on the war.
 Japan is fighting for definite pur- pose. which is to secure southern Man churia and Korea from Russian az eression. and if that purpose can be attained by agreement with the Rus sian government there is no reason why Japan should continue the terrible strain of war.
 If Russia sets the national prestige above everything else. there is no doubt that Russia can prolong the war beyond the Japanese powers of en- durance. but if that policy should be adopted it would mean the capture Of Vladivostok the seizure of the eastern end of the transsiberian railroad and the defeat of whatever armies Rus sin might put into the field. And at the same time Russia will have to struggle with internal disturbances that threaten the existence of the mon archy and possibly the continuance of the present imperial union
 Under all the circumstances, there fore. peace seems very probable, and the spectators in other countries are beginning to consider the possible terms of settlement.
 One matter that is worrying the neu- traI powers considerably is the possi- bility that Russia and Japan may agree to look after their own interests with out regard to any other nation. A req sonabIe treaty might be reached more readily by Russia and Japan acting by themselves, than by the same nations with the assistance of other powers But if Russia and Japan are not in- clined to be reasonable. they are un- doubtedly in a position where they could make a great deal of trouble for China. Great Britain, the United States Germany and France. Certainly these nations have interests in the far east that cannot be neglected, and the peace treaty between Russia and Japan might easily contain matters that these nations could not pass over in silence
 It is true that Russia and France are allied, and Japan and Great Brit ain are also allies. and neither one o the principals would desire to incur the i'll will of Germany or America Btu Russia may well feel that she can ge better terms direct from Japan than sh' could if the terms of the treaty haC 10 pass inspection by Great Britain and Japan has already had one expe rience in treaty revision that Is no likely to incline her to another of tn kind.
 The situation is an interesting one and in this connection it is well to re member that it has been predicte that the time of treaty making at tn close of the war would be the mos dangerous period for the peace of tn world

CHAPTER XII.

DEVOTED TO SECRET SERVICE,
SHOWING THAT WALLS AND
OTHER INANIAIATE OBJECTS
OFTEN HAVE EARS.
The scenes of anger and violence
were over. The eXiled councillors had
retired to their homes on parole that
they would leave Quebec the next
morning The inhabitants of the
Chateau were all asleep, and the en-
tire citadel was again at peace
A sentinel pacing his weary watch
upon the rampant was the only living
thing visible in the moonlight, while
the barking of a solitary dog in the
lower town and the distant howl of a
hungry wolf from the direction of
Beaupre were the only sounds appar-
emily that broke the silence of a con-
tinent.
1t was already after midnight, and
the guard had been changed, when a
keen eye might have seen a dark figure
pass silently along within the shade
of the barracks, the guard-room, and
the Chateau itself, until it finally
was merged in the deep shadow of the
magazine at the extreme end of the
fort. Soon after another form ap-
peared. gliding by the same route 20
a common rendezvous. Within the
shelter of the building they stood and
conversed in low tones, while awaiting
the arrival of some one else At
length a third muffled figure joined
them, and asked in an authoritative
voice:
Are we all here?"
"Yes, NJ. PIntendant, and waiting"
spoke up one of the group rather tes-
tily, as he shivered with the cold and
drew his cloak closer about his shoul-
ders.
Pardon my delay, Monsieur TEve-
que" replied Duchesr...u, but | was
merely taking the necessary precau-
tions. I gave orders to have an extra
amount of liquor served to the SOL
diers in the guard-room tonight. and
delayed my coming until | had made
sure that yonder sentinel received his
double allowance before his turn came.
He is too happy now to watch the
shadows very closely; listen, you can
hear him singing to himself"
But are you sure we are entirely Sc
cure here?" spoke up the third mem
Der of the group, who looked uneasily
about him.

with a slight touch of scorn in his
tones, unless the obscurity about us

turning to the first speaker again, he
went on. Your letter to NJ. le Min
istre, Monsieur IEveque, did not seem
to have much weight, for the Sieur de
la Sale has come in spite of your eff
forts"
True, NJ. rIntendant," was the re-
ply, but it seems that he managed to
gain the ear of the king first Listen

there, giving a bright touch of color
to the otherwise gloomy interior. The
swinging cressets that furnished from
overhead light much feebler than
that emanating from the blazing logs
showed in one corner an old tarnished
corselet and some steel pixies, while in
another a massive carved desk and
chair betrayed the official character of
the room. In the center of the floor
carpeted with many skins stood a
heavy table, set with snow-white
napery and polished silver. Three
high-baclled chairs denoted the num-
ber of the expected diners.
While warming themselves before

civilization and barbarism about them,
Frontenac entered the room, and soon
all were engaged with hearty appe-

talked freely of the plans for the fur

to build up. Frontenac, as a sort Of
partner in the enterprise, offered ad-
vice and gave his views frankly on all
subjects discussed.
A knock at the door and a servant
entered to announce that the members
of the superior council were awaiting

had called for the reading of the dis

Thousands of Women
ARE RRDE WELL AND STRONG
Success OF Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound Rests Upon the Fact that II
Really Does Make Sick Women Well

Thousands upon thousands of Ameri-
can women have been restored to
health by Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegeta-
pie compound. Their letters are on file
In Mrs. Pinkham's office, and prove this
statement to be a fact and not mere
| boast.
Overshadowing indeed is the success
of this great medicine, and compared
with it all other medicines and treat
ment for women are experiments.
Why has Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound accomplished its wide
spread results for good?
Why has it lived and thrived and
done its glorious work for a quarter of
century?
simply and surely because of its ster-
ling worth. The reason no other med
icine has even approached its success
is plainly and positively because there
is no otner medicine in the world SO
good for women's ills
The wonderful power of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound over
the diseases of womankind is not be-
cause it is astimulant-not because it is
palliative, but simply because it is
the most wonderful tonic and recon-
structor ever discovered to act directly
upon the uterine system, positively
CURING disease and displacements and
restoring health and vigor.
Marvellous cures are reported from
all parts of the country by women who
have been cured, trained nurses who
have witnessed cures, and physicians
who have recognized the virtue in
Lydia e. Pinkhams Vegetable Com
pound, and are fair enough to give
credit where it is due. If physicians
dared to be frank and open, hundreds
of them would acknowledge that they
constantly prescribe Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound in severe
cases of female ills, as they know by
experience that it will effect cure.
Women who are troubled with painful
or irregular menstruation, backache,
bloating Tor flatulence( leucorrhna,
falling, inflammation or liberation of
the uterus, ovarian troubles, that
bearing down" feeling, dizziness,
faintness. indigestion, nervous pros
tration, or the blues, should take i'm
mediate action to ward off the serious
consequences and be restored to health
and strength by taking Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound. Anyway,
write to Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass,
for advice. It's free and always helpful.

A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY.
The President Signs Proclamation
Giving Over Million Acres of
Utah Land to Home Makers.

Another golden opportunity is offered
the home makers of America. 1t comes
in the form of the opening for settle
m0nt of the lands OF the U'ntah Indian
Reservation III Utah. This great reserva-
ton comprises 2,i44, 900 acres, OF which
1869, ,l60 have been thrown open TO settle
ment by the proclamation which President
Roosevelt signed on July 10 OF this year,
and which takes effect on August %.
The mode of procedure in making the
allotment OF these lands is similar to that
adopted at the time OF the opening of
the Rosebud Indian reservation, in 1904,
when the Chicago q northwestern Rail
way carried thousands of settlers into the
trans Missouri country to look for new
homes: Settlers may make entry at the
United States land Offices at Grand juno
ton, Col, at Vernal. Utah, Price, Utah,
or Provo, Utah
Any citizen of the United States above
the age OF q years, or the head of a
family, though younger, widows and
deserted wives may register for a home
stead. All applications must positively
be made IN person by registering at one
or the U. >. land offices named, except in
the case of honorably discharged soldiers
and sailors, who may register through
an agent.
The Uintah Reservation lies in the
north-central portion of the state of
Utah, in Uintah and Wasatch counties
III extends from the Green River on the
east to Heber, county seat of Wasatch
county, on the west, and to the crest of
the great Uintah Mountain Range on
the north, comprising land rich in agri-
cultural and mineral possibilities. A
large portion of this tract of land is
remarkably fertile. The climate is tenn
perate, with almost perpetual sunshine
The altitude is from 1000 to 5000 feet
above the sea. In addition to the agri-
cultural lands, there are also large
quantities of grazing land on which
cattle, sheep and horses may be raised
with great success. The lands are watered
by the Duchesne and lTintah rivers.
The passenger from the east can best
reach the Reservation via he Chicago
Union Pacific & Northwestern Line to
Denver, which is a 26 hour ride from
Chicago. and the D. & r. G. or Colorado

MONK GIBSON CAPTURED.
Vas Taken Monday and is Now in Edna
Jail Guarded by Soldiers to Prevent
Lynching.,

Edna Texas, Oct. e.-The negro
Monk Gibson has been reoaptured
and is now in Jail at Edna, guarded
by soldiers to prevent lynching.
He was caught this morning.
The recapture of the negro
brings u a close one of the most
exciting and persistent man hunts
that has taken place in Texas for
some time. While there is yet no
direct evidence that Gibson was
the perpetrator of the murder of
the Condit family near Edna sew
eral days ago, it is generally believ-
ed he is either the sole murderer,
is implicated or has guilty knowl-
edge Of the affair. 1t was announc-
ed that no power on earth could
save him from lynchiug if cap
tured, but it is probable cooler
heads prevailed, or that respite
was granted for the purpose of ex-
tracing from the negro all possible
information concerning the crime.

A TOUCHING SCENE
Prisoner Insisted Upon Pleading Guilty
Judge Burns Protested and Offered
Counsel.

| OnS OF lie pSCuIldI dLdiudo
was enacted IN the United district
court room yesterday afternoon,
the characters being an aged and
in6rm man tottering down the
shady side Of life and the other
being Judge Waller T. Burns. The
old man was William McDermott,
arrested some time ago on charge
of counterfeiting at Halletsville.
He had been indicted by the grand
jury and was brought before Judge
Burns to stand trial. He insisted
that he was guilty and desired to
enter a plea to that effect.
His crime had been the making
of twenty counterfeit Scent pieces
and attempting to pass some of
them. Judge Burns heart was
touched when lie looked upon the
| old man in front of him and he re-
fused to accept the plea of guilty,
informing the prisoner that he had
better take day or two to study
the matter over before entering such
a plea.
I am guilty. judge, " he replied.
and l desire to enter that kind
of plea"
You are an old man. Do you
realize what the smallest penalty is
for a crime OF this character At
your time of life a year in prison
is long time. I insist that you
withdraw your plea of guilty and
ponder over the matter. Why did
you commit this crime?
I don't know why l committed
it, judge. l was just playing at the
time and made twenty nickels. +
had no thought of ever attempting
to pass them"
In the face of such a statement
l can not accept your plea of gull
ty. Why do you desire to enter
such a plea?"
I am guilty, judge, and I have
no money to fight the case, and
the best way out of it will be for
NE to take my punishment"
Judge Burns then informed him
that if he would withdraw his plea
that the court would appoint as
good COUNSEL to defend him as could
be procured and that it would not
cost him cent. But the man re-
fused to accept the proffer, Insisted
that he was guilty, that he desired
to enter a plea to that effect and
have sentence passed upon him.
There was nothing else for the
court to do but pass sentence, so
Judge Burns gave him thirteen
months at hard labor in the FEEDER !
al prison at Leavenworth, Kan. !,
and fine of 500, In passing the
sentence the court informed the
prisoner that if his conduct were
good the prison officials, as is the
custom, would allow him six days |
off of every month for good be-
havior.
The attorneys and officers of the
court were greatly affected by the
scene, and it was remark
ed that it was the first time, per
haps, in the history of courts that |
a judge had protested for the in
of a prisoner against the
own arguments that he
was guilty.
The other two counts in the in
iictment of passing counterfeit
were dismissed on motion |
IF the district attorney.
