Other Prospective Customers

Central and South America used
$3,OOO,OOO of our goods last year. They
being our nearby neighbors, our trade
with them should be largely increased.
From correspondence based on con-
sular reports it will be seen that the
Mediterranean. Red sea and Persian
gulf regions are clamoring for our
goods and, for several reasons, cannot
obtain them.
1t is therefore urged that the presi-
dent obtain authority from congress to
appoint special commission to take
steps for the extension of the export
markets for cotton producers in China,
Central and South America, the Per-
sian gulf, the Mediterranean and Red
sea regions.
In conclusion the address called at
tention to the fact that in half a CEN
tury the value of cotton products has
grown from $12S, 1000 in 1850 to $721,-
9490 900 in 1900.

States Argument Begun

Attorney General Webb began his
argument at $3.50 o'clock. He said he
never had and never would ask a jury
to find man guilty whose guilt was
not proved. He scored Mr.. Johnson
for his criticism of county officials and
witnesses and said this abuse was be-
murdered Weber. He said that direct
evidence has convicted more innocent
men than circumstantial evidence ever
has. Perjury and subornation of per-
jury have done it. The law declares
circumstantial evidence good and legal
in every state in the union.

By Associated Press.

AUBURN, Cal, Feb. 20.-The court
room was again thronged with women
when Attorney johnson resumed his
argument in the Weber case. He
said the duty of the jury was to bring
in verdict of acquittal. He reviewed
and compared the evidence with re-
gard to the incidents of the fire and
said that the defendant was corro-
borated even by the witnesses for the
prosecution in his claim that he was
walking the streets Of Auburn that
evening as early as $40. He was also
corroborated in his statement that his
pants were old and worn and he did
need another pair.
Continuing the attorney said: 1.-THE
defendant is shown by testimony to
have been sickly. The work of drag
ging dead bodies around Is not work
for a sick person or one with a weak
heart or a weak back. 1t Is work for
strong man. No wonder that he gave

fendant the pistol, the mere possession
of the weapon was not evidence that

Antagonism Engendered Between
Prussians and Poles.
Hardly a day passes but the news
papers contain striking evidence OF
the antagonistic spirit which is being
engendered between the Poles and
the Prussians. Last week 1t came to
the ears of the publishers of a Polish
paper circulating in Westphalia that
one Of their compositors was about
to marry a German girl. They con-
sidered that this stamped him as a
traitor to Poland, and although he
had served them faithfully for many
years they dismissed him on the spot.
A large number OF Poles work in the
Westphalia coal mines, and In order
to further the amalgamation of the
races the authorities have issued
regulations to the effect that no per-
son shall be employed underground
who is not proficient In the German
language. The Poles obstinately re-
fuse to know a word OF German when
they happen to be called up to make
statements in public.
few days ago Polish miner had
to give evidence in a Westphalia
police court. He was. OF course. as
innocent as a newly-born babe of any
knowledge Of German until the magis-
trate threatened to report the case
to his employers. who would have
been compelled to dismiss him.
Thereupon his German came back.
and he replied fuently to all tho
questions put to him. His wife had
been present during the hearing of
the case, and was waiting for him in
the passage just outside the court
room door, AS soon as he appeared
she bitterly reproached him for hav-
ing given way, and to render her
arguments more forcible, soundly
boxed his ears. She then kicked MIN

escape the attentions OF his patri.

Paul Learns That Laura Is In Alaska
He, he, he!" chuckled Ned Padgett
rubbing his hands gleefully at seeing
the tables turned. You hove in
sight, mates, in good time. Must "a
had fair winds"
Paul had no difficulty in making
out the two men, companions of the
third, whom he had met on other oc-
casions. AS these were the men who
had robbed him and whom he and
old Glum had chased in the forest.
there was little mercy to expect from
them. With thongs of seal-skin Paul
and the hermit were quickly tied hard
and fast, and told they must move on
before the Indians returned.
AS 1T was dark and the snow falling
rapidly, there was little danger Of
even the Indians following on their
trail, shrewd as they were In such
experiences.
The night was dark and the snow
falling, so it was difficult travelling. A
strip Of walrus hide was tied about
the arms of each above their elbows
and fastened about their backs. They
were heavily loaded, and threatened
with the knotted stick which Ned car
ried in his hand when they staggered
under their heavy loads.
On, on and on they staggered
through the darkness and over the
uneven ground. At last Paul. utterly
exhausted, sank down at the root of
a tree.

captors.

his club.

suade himself that after all this was
some horrible dream. The man whom
he had assaulted in company with
Padgett and Morris approached him.
Morris handed Paul a letter In the
well-known handwriting Of Laura
Kean. it was dated at Juneau and
addressed to Paul's mother in Fresno.
The letter was brief saying she had
just arrived, and would rest day or
two before proceeding farther

"Yes; but she did not come with

",Oh no; he came on another ship"
Then he lied when he said they

Morris laughed a cold. sardonic

have all the evil of demon in it,
answered:

ships from America, there is but one

FREAK DINNERS A FAD.

(To be continued.)

Entertainments Where Guests Cook
for Themselves.
Freak dinners are a fad. An or
dinary dinner has lost its charm for
some people who go out much during
the season, and now that Paris has set
its seal Of approval on the Corinthian
dinner at which everyone is obliged
to cook something, New Workers and
Chicagoans will select this form of
entertainment as a diversion.
In studio few weeks ago the wife
of an artist gave one of these cook
ing parties to a dozen guests who
knew nothing of the fun in store for
them when they arrived at the house.
The studio was arranged with a long
table holding chafng dish for each
person, with some particular Wand be-
fore it ready to be cooked. Each
guest received a chefs cap and apron.
and in short time the dishes we're
bubbling and simmering in promis-
ing fashion.
When the meal was cooked it was
served by the men, who acted as the
walters. Strangely enough, the din
ner in every particular was a success.
But cooking has become such a fad
of late that it is considered quite
smart to know how to cook some par
ticular dish in chafer. The bach
elor apartment feasts, at which the
host acts as cook, have increased the
desire for culinary knowledge, as
these occasions prove very enjoyable
to those used to more formal enter.

CHAPTER lx.-(Contlnued.)
"Why have you lived so long in
Alaskan"
Il could not get away" was the
answer. Yours is the only face l
have seen since / lei my friends, the
Indians, save those who held me
captive"
"And you have escaped?"
yes"
Then come with us to the camp
on the Klondyke"
'Klondyke-I've heard of it; they
often talk about it when they think
me asleep, but do not always sleep
when seem to-"
Paul was filled with delight, for
here was a chance to unravel the
mystery in which he was involved.
Another silence fell on the group,
broken by Paul asking:
DO you know miner named
Glum?"
"Glum-Glum--no."
"Glum Ralston."
The old man again shook his head,
declaring he had never known such
person. Paul was disappointed. From
what Glum Ralston had told him he
was confident that this mysterious
hermit of the woods was the long
lost captain who had followed the
Indians to the place where they said
gold in great quantities was found.
But when the mysterious hermit
disclaimed any knowledge Of him at
all he was quite as far away from
the solution of the problem as he
had been before.
Next morning the party resumed
their march guided by the sun, which
shone a portion of the day. Paul
and the hermit were constantly to-
gether and hourly grew more and
more friendly, until, as the noble
nature of the hermit unfolded itself,
Paul came to love him. He was
known to the hermit by his sobriquet
OF Crack-lash, for he had been called
by no other name since his arrival
in Alaska
Paul was hourly entwining him
self about the rugged heart of the old
man. One night when they had
halted and the Indians were building
a fire for the night the hermit said
"Crack-lash, you impress me
strangely l don't know why, but /
have grown to love you as if you
were my nearest relative. When NV
own dear boy grows up to manhood
could only wish that he would make |
as noble a man.
Paul, deeply impressed with the
old mans sad story, expressed a hope
that he would soon be able to leave
Alaska and reach his home, and that
his wife and child might yet be alive
to welcome him.
Their stock of provisions were run
ming short. One day the Indians
came on the trail OF a moose and

Paul gave them permission to go.
while he and the hermit kindled the
Ire and prepared to make themselves
comfortable for the night.
Inc prisoner as usual sat in sullen
silence, with his back against a tree

md the hermit sat engaged in earn
st conversation. The former was
alking in a low tone, telling how he

hree others, and followed them into

Berlin, March 27.-The arguments
in the final appeal of Prince Leon
Kotschoukey, from a fine of $3.50 or
81 days Imprisonment for kicking a
waiter at a hotel at Dresden some
months ago will be argued this week.
II will be remembered that when the
newspapers arrived from Berlin the
prince ordered the waiter to bring
tmen into the reading room to him.
Among the papers was the comic
sheet Simplicissimus, which publishes
singing caricatures of Russia and the
Russian government. The waiter put
this paper on the top of the pile and
when the prince saw the cartoon he
kicked the waiter all about the room
and finally left him unconscious. In
ternal hemorrhages set in and the
man nearly lost his life. The attor
aeys for the waiter will oppose the
appeal and will set up that the pun,
ishineht inflicted upon conviction was
grossly inadequate.
