A Powerful Tonic.

Good music is a powerful tonic
to many people, especially those
suffering from melancholia. 1t lifts
them out of their solemn moods,
dispels gloom and dependency,
kills discouraged feelings and gives
new hope, new life and new vigor.
1t seems to put a great many peo-
pie into proper time. 1t gives
them the keynote of truth and
beauty, strikes the chords of har-
mony, dispels discord from life,
scatters clouds, and brings sun
shine. All good music is a char
acter builder, because its constant
suggestion of harmony, order and
beauty puts the mind into a nor
nal attitude. Music clears the
cobwebs out of many minds, so
that they can think better, act bet
ter and live better. Some writers
are dependent upon music for their
inspiration and their moods. Some
how it brings the muse to them.
1t adds brilliancy to the brain and
facility to the pen which they can
not seem to get in any other way.
Good music seems to give us
touch of the divine and to put us
in contact with divinity. 1t drives
out evil thoughts, making US
ashamed of them. 1t lifts us above
petty annoyauces and little worries
of life, and gives Us alinpse of
the ideal which the actual Is con-
stantly obscuring.

Cable dispatches bring a London re-
port that Mrs. Samuel Sloane Chauncey
of New York is engaged to marry Lord
Kitchener. Mrs. Chauncey has been
called the "most beautiful widow in the
world"
She was Alice Carr of Louisville, ky.,
before her marriage and formerly lived
in southern Indiana. After the death of
her father, the family was poor, but the
beauty of the two daughters attracted
attention, and the elder, Alice, soon be-
came the acknowledged belle of Louis
vile.
After her marriage to Mr.. Chauncey
she won conspicuous place for herself
in New York society. Mrs. Chauncey
took the mother and sister abroad and
while in London Lord Marlborough fell
in love with Grace Carr and married her.
Since the marriage Of her sister Mrs.
Chauncey has spent the greater part OF
her time abroad.
Lord Kitchener has been looked upon
us man who was too busy fighting to
think of romance or sentiment. He is a
gruff old warrior, and his appearance in
society at social functions has been rare
until recently, when it is said that wher-
ever Mrs. Chauncey was to be found
Lord Kitchener was sure to be.

SONS OPPOSED WEDDING.
Mrs. ]. I. Case Married Secretly, Ahead
of Date First Set, Lest They
Interfere

RACINE, Wis, Dec 22.-[Special]->
Opposition of her four sons, now attend
ing college in the east, to the third mar
riage of their mother has developed as
the cause for the secret wedding of Mrs.
Henrietta Roy Case of Racine, Wis, to
John w Dalman of New York in the
Trinity Episcopal church several days
ago.
Mrs Dalman was first married to Mr..
Whipple of Kalamazoo, Mich, and after
being divorced, married Jackson /. Case,
millionaire race horse owner and harvest
machine manufacturer of Racine.
When it was announced that Mrs.
Case would again wed, her four sons
are said to have voiced loud disapproval.
The wedding was set for December 70,
however, but it was feared the sons
would intervene, so the ceremony was
quietly solemnized in Chicago two days
before the date given.

BRYCE DECLINES TITLE.
Offer of Peerage Turned Down by Man
Who Will Be British Ambassa-
dor at Washington

LONDON, Dec. 24.-James Bryce has
declined a peerage, and will go to the
United States to be British ambassador
as the first plain citizen to represent his
country at Washington. And, says the
Chronicle, Americans who know and
honor him as James Bryce will esteem
him all the more because he declined a
title"
The finding of a successor for Mr.
Bryce as chief secretary for Ireland is
giving Sir Henry Campbell Zimmerman
considerable trouble. Lewis Harcourt,
first commissioner of works. has declined
the position.
Most of the newspapers this morning
print editorials on Mr.. Bryce's departure
from the cabinet and changes in the min
istry. The Standard urges that q much
larger salary should be attached to the
Washington embassy. The comments
of the Irish papers of all shades regard
ing Mr. Bryce's departure are rather
cool. They generally regard Mr.. Bryce
as lacking i'll necessary sympathy and
as having been rather a weak than a
strong Irish secretary.
The Tribune in an editorial says that
the close connection with President
Roosevelt will give the ambassador an
opportunity of pushing forward the work
of The Hague conference.

HAS NOT FILED BOND.
State Treasurer Elect Dahl Fails to
Qualify for Office Within Speci-
fed Time

MADISON, Wis, Dec. 21.-[Special.]
State Treasurer-elect A. H. Dahl OF
Westby has not yet taken his oath OF
office and filed his bond with the COVER
nor as required by law. The law states
that within twenty days after being Of
ficially notified of his election by the sec
rotary of state each officer elect shall
take his oath of office and file his bonds
as severally required. The notices of
election were sent out on December L,
and consequently, it is stared, the TWEEN
ty days time has expired, There is no
penalty in the law for failure to OBJ
serve the provision, however, and it is
not believed that if it is true that Mr.
Dahl has neglected this detail that, 1t
will result in any inconvenience to him
in qualifying later. 1t is known that the
state treasurer-elect has been making in
quiries in regard to a bond and that the
bonding companies have tried to ascer-
tain whom he was going to appoint as
sistant treasurer. 1t is generally be
ieved that Mr.. Dahl intends TO appoint
Henry Johnson of Oconto, but he has
made no announcement to that effect.
The other state officers of whom bonds
are required have filed them with the

WOMAN RESCUES CREW.
WIFE OF LIGHTKEEPER ON PACIFIC
COAST A HEROINE.
Tramps Five Miles Over Desolate Train
in Rough Weather and Brings
Aid

WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. "a
THE American consul at Victoria in re-
norting the loss of the American barken-
tine "Coloma'' of San Francisco. OF
Vancouver island, December Z, gives
graphic story of the rescue of the crew.
The report says:
"After the crew had been struggling IN
the water for twelve hours their signals
of distress were seen in the early morn
ing by the lighthouse keeper at Cape
Reale. Vancouver island, and the keep
ers' wife, Mrs Minnie Patterson, started
for Bamfeld, FIVE miles away, where the
British steamer "Quadra" fortunately
had steam up and put out at once to res
cue the men of the "Coloma." The sea
was very rough, but all ten of the ship
wrecked were finally rescued by volun-
teers of the "Quadra."
Special praise is due to Mrs. Pattercc
son whose trip to Bamheld was one OF
most heroic exertion. 1t took her four
hours of hard struggle to make the trip
which completely exhausted her. The
path over which she had to go was MOTH
ing more than a trail and the heavy
weather had made it very wet.
"a man who went over 1t day or
two later describes it as little better
than a bog and said he wore out a par
of shoes in making the trip and tore his
clothes badly"
