night mathis; there In later times.
Queen Elizabeth walked, attended by

mus" is prayer in which every lover
Of old London will join with every old
Carthusian. For the tide OF London's
trade and business Is washing higher
and higher against these ancient
walls, and more than once the old
monastery has been seriously endan
gered. Yet a building with historical
associations dating back to more than
five centuries ago might surely be
deemed sacred. For Charterhouse, the
original Charterhouse of which some
portions still remain, was founded In
1871.
In that year the gallant Sir Walter
Nanny established on the site q Car
thusian monastery. Among their Other
duties, the monks were to Offer

From the turmoil and hustle OF
smithfield and the noisy thoroughfares
around, It is strange contrast to pass
through the gates into the Charter
house. Twentieth-century London Is
left behind, and we are back in medic.
val times. Over its quaint courts and
quadrangles, its wainscoted walls, Its
antique balustrade staircases, Its his
toric chapel, monastic stiffness
ieigns. Our passing footsteps rouse
weird echoes In the old gray cloisters.
What varied scenes they have wit.

In the Troubled Times.

The monks made gallant fight for
their faith in the troubled times un-
der Henry VIII; indeed, the prior and
not few of the brotherhood lost their
lives owing to their resistance.
Eventually, the remnant OF the order
had to seek refuge at Bruges, and the
monastery and It's lands then passed
through several hands within COM
paratlvely brief period. It was there
that Lord North entertained Queen
Elizabeth on her journey from Hat.
field to London on her accession to
the throne. and again, three years
later, with such magnihcence that he
was nearly ruined and was obliged to
live In retirement for the remainder
OF his life. Afterward, It passed to the
Howard family, and from them 1t was
bought by Thomas Sutton. the founder
of the Charterhouse, az 1t Is now
known. Not that, even before the re-
moval of the school TO Godalmlng, 1t
had been for many year quite what
the great philanthropist intended T. to
be. So far. indeed, as the foundation
for the pensioners Is concerned, the
intention OF the donor may be said to
have been fairly well fulfilled. It is

Vienna, Dec. 29.-The reports from

Servia and Bulgaria are about to

possessing far greater political sig

they few years ago that 1t is not unlikely
a number of stocks which not in the dividend
column which only small returns are being
made, will be added to the list of interest paving
investments in the course of the current calendar
year.
Call money rates doubtless will rule at a
hrmer level between and the end of the
month, owing to the preparations which must be
made for large July interest and dividend dis
oursements, While time funds already show an
advancing tendency, doubtless on account of the
renewal of maturing loans. It is expected that
a large amount of finance bills will be put out
in the local market in the near future and that
the chief source of supply for borrowers in the
summer months will be found through the me
dunn of foreign exchange With an easier ten
dency in money rates abroad and firmer figures
here, it is natural that foreign bankers should
invest their capital temporarily in the United
States by the means of finance bills, which in

expectation of firm rates for funds with in

that borrowers with good collateral will expert

LEWISTON MANS SUCCESS.
Seven Years Ago He Arrived There
With $0-Sclls Property for $4,000.

Lewiston, Oct. 26.-E. G. Ellsworth
of this city yesterday closed the deal
for the purchase Of 500 acres of land
from Judge Norman Buck of Spokane
for $4,000. The land is located in
the Waha section of the Lewiston val
ley and lies about one mile from the
well known Twenty-One ranch. Mr..
Ellsworth will personally handle the
ranch and will stock 1t at the outset
with so cows and aobut 90 teams Of
horses.
Mr.. Ellsworth now owns $40 acres
of land in the valley while seven years
ago he reached Lewiston with total as
sets of 80. He engaged In general
teamlng and contract work and later
purchased for $1,000 a tract of 100
acres lying directly south of the city
and overlooking Lewiston. A few
days ago he sold to NJ. A. Means of
this city 10 acres of the tract for ST.
900 and q similar acreage to Rev. w
Euster. pastor of the Methodist church
for $1050. These sales place the min
imum values of the 140 acres that Mr.
Ellsworth still retains at 500 an acre
or $4,000. Mr.. Ellsworth from his
start of 80 has also built $4,000 res
idence in Lewiston and n second resi-
dence Of less pretensions. In addition
to teaming and contract work, he has
followed farming and dairying.

SEEKS EXEMPTION FROM TAXEs.
Trustees of Whitman College Ask
Court to EnjOin Assessment.

walla Walla, Oct. 26.-The board Of
trustees of Whitman college has filed
complaint in the United States circuit
court at Seattle asking that the col
lection. of taxes from that institution
be enjoined, declaring It to be an insti-
tuition which has given TO the public
emple consideration for the grant of
exemption that was extended to II
nearly a half century ago by the WASH
ington territorial legislative assembly.
The county of Walla Walla, not
withstanding this act of the legisla-
tive assembly, still reserves the right
to tax the institution and alleges that
the exemption from taxation was an
act of the territorial assembly in vlo-
lation of various acts of congress in
force at the time. Partisans of the
college assert that the taxes are very
large, and II the institution is COM
PEELED to pay them It will be seriously
crippled.
The complaint filed asks that the
board of trustees of Whitman college
be granted temporary order restrain
ing the board of equalization of
Walla Walla county from listing or
carrying assessable on It's rolls any
of the property of the college, and
asks further that II be restrained
from attempting to collect any taxes
from the school.

Miss Hate MUOnoId

More than likely you speak the same
words yourself, and no doubt you feel
far from we'll. The cause may be easily
traced to some arrangement Of the fe-
male organs which manifests itself in
depression of spirits. reluctance to go
anywhere or do anything, backache,
bearing-down pains, flatulency, nerv.
business. sleeplessness, or other fe.
male weakness.
These symptoms are but warnings
that there is danger ahead, and unless
needed life Of suffering or a serious
operation is the inevitable result.
The never. falling remedy for all these
symptoms is Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound.
Miss Kate Mcdonald OF Woodbridge,
N. j., writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
"Restored health has meant so much to me
that cannot help from telling about 1t for
the sake Of other suffering women.
"For long time suffered untold agony
with female trouble and irregularities,
which made me physical wreck, and no one
thought would recover, but Lydia 4. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound has entirely
cured me, and made me well and strcng, and
/ feel II my duty to tell other suffering women
what splendid medicine 1t is."
For twenty-five years Mrs. Pinkham,
daughter-ip- law OF Lydia E. Pinkham,
has under her direction, and since her
decease, been advising sick women free
of charge. Her advice is free and
always helpful. Address, Lynn, Mass.

YAKIMA PEOPLE
EAT HORSE MEAT
HORSES ARE EVIDENTLY
BUTCHERED FOR MARKET.
Carcasscs of Butchcred Animals Found
Near the City-Parts of the Car
casses Left Hanging In Trces-Peo-
pie Are Alarmed and the Sheriff Is
Investigating.

North Yakima people are alarmed
over the report that horses are being
butchered in that vicinity and the
flesh sold as beef to the residents of
the city. The Yakima Republic says
of the affair:
A story came to light this afternoon
which the authorities have vainly en-
deavored to cover up pending an in
vestigation.
In several instances horses that
have been butchered and seemingly
prepared for sale, have been discov-
cred in the woods, near this city.
Sheriff Grant Investigated one case
that had been reported to him, and
after going to the scene east of town
in the woods on the bank of the river
he found where two horses had been
butchered like steers. Still hanging
on the limbs of tree were a fore
and hind quarter of one of the horses,
while the other quarters of the horses
had been taken away.
In both instances the horses were
large fat animals. The sheriff left
the meat hanging in the tree. The
hides had been taken off the horses
and the animals had been carefully
skinned. In killing the horses the
butchers had done a good job.
This discovery led the authorities
to believe that possibly men were
killing horses and selling the meat
| about town or through the country
as beef.
"Wednesday afternoon Uncle Joe
Stephenson, one of the Oldest pioneers
in this valley, walked into the sheriffs
office and told SheriffAGrant of find
ing portions of the carcass of a large
horse in the woods on his place out in
| the school section, and that looking
up into tree not far from the scene
of the butchering he had discovered
the hind quarters of the horse hang
ing. The fore quarters had been
taken away. The hide was missing,
and the shoes had been pulled from
| the hoofs.
Mr.. Stephenson made this discovery
yesterday morning, and he has been
watching the patch of woods where
| the horse was killed and where the
| lllu quarters sllll ndHB, Ill lHe nope
of catching the man when he came
after the. balance of the meat. Uncle
Joe went to the spot early this after
noon. and as the horse meat was
hanging in the same place he decided
to wait no longer, but to come In and
report the matter to the proper au-
| thorities.
| Whether or not there are men in
the field butchering horses for the
market, or whether 1t Is a case of
wanton slaughter of the animals, the
authorities are at a loss to under
stand. The fact that bothers Mr.. Ste
phenson more than anything else, is
that recently two horses either wan
dered out of his pasture or were
stolen and driven away. The carcass
which he discovered, however, is not
one OF the horses, but he fears that
these may be butchered in some other
secluded spot, especially when he
learned of the sheriff's find.
Sheriff Grant said this afternoon
that this matter would receive the at
tention of the office, and an investi-
CATION made at once.
