and had his father begun now to scat
ter what he had never any right to
touch? Whoever brought him that
big roll Of money had robbed him of
his peace. Even his ribs against

gan to feel sore. Home at last, he put
up the mare and went to tell his moth
er that he must be off for Hills

"You look troubled" was her an
swer. "Poor boy! pray God to keep
you unspotted of the world" She was
ever fearing unhappy news of the mys-
tery-that something evil would come
out of it.
AS Trove rode away he took account
of all he owed those good people who
had been mother and father to him.
What pleasure it would give him to
lay that goodly sum in the lap Of his
mother and bid her spend 1t with no
thought of economy.
The mare knew him as one may
know q brother. There was in her
manner some subtle understanding Of
his mood. Her master saw it in the
poise of her head, in the shift Of her
ears and in her tender way Of feeling
for his hand. She, too, was looking
right and left in the fields. There were
the scenes of q boyhood newly but for
ever gone. ''That's where you overlook
me on the way to school," said he to

"Oh, do wish could CO." said she
presently, with a deep sigh.
He thought Of the $50 In his pocket
and longed to tell her all that he was
planning for her sake.
Mrs. Vaughn went above stairs with
the children.
Then Trove took Polly's hand. They
looked deeply into each others eyes a
moment, both smiling.

as her glance fell.
He moved all the checkers.
There came breath Of silence and a
great surge Of happiness that washed
every checker off the board and left
the two with flushed faces. Then, as
Mrs. Vaughn was coming downstairs,
the checkers began to rattle into posi-

Ex-President Grover Cleveland holds
the only warrant for one cent ever
drawn by the Secretary Of the Treas
ury upon the United States Treasurer.
1t was in payment Of the balance OF
the salary due the Democratic chief
tain at the close OF his term In 1897,
and its issuance was made necessary
by one of those mistakes that are rare
on the part Of the expert bookkeepers
engaged in running the accounts Of
the government
Every quarter the President Of the
United States is entitled to three
checks-one for 81, 1866 and two for.
81, 1861. The table of methods of
paying government salaries shows
that if the $4,000 year for the Pres
ident is divided into twelve equal in
stallments, one for each month, the
amount will be S4.166.66 %. but the
two-thirds of a cent cannot be paid
at the end of a month, and SO the
practice is to send the President
check for $4,166.66 one month and the
other two months of the quarter the
amount is 81, 1867.
In some manner President Cleve-
land failed to get check one month
for the extra cent that was due him,
and when the books were balanced at
the close of his term it was detected.
With all due solemnity the officers or
the treasury drew the famous warrant
for one cent, and Mr.. Cleveland re-
ceived it with the same amount of Sc.
robustness. He has never cashed the
warrant.

SLAIN BY BON 3.
Former Governor of Idaho Killed
While Entering Home.

Frank Steunenberg, former Govern
or of the State of Idaho, was killed by
the explosion of dynamite bomb Sat.
urday evening, and thus, after the in
Prevention of number, of years, the
inner circle of the Occur D'Alene dy-
namiters whom he so reientlessly
prosecuted while Governor is believed
yenge.
The asssination of Steunenberg was
one Of the most cold-blooded and re-
voting crimes of its nature in the his
tory of the United States. Never be-
fore has the dreaded weapon of the
Russian anarchists, with when the
/ Cars of the empire are kept in con-
slant fear, been turned on any man,
no matter how hated, in American
public life.
The bomb was placed at the gate
Of the former Governors home in such
a manner that the opening of the gate
would set it off. The Steunenberg
residence Is situated in the Boise sub
urb of Caldwell, and Steunenberg was
later than usual in getting to his home
Saturday evening. He reached the
gate at about q 40 o'clock and swung
it open with Il shove. Instantly there
was mighty explosion. The noise
was heard miles away. Windows were
shaken in houses blocks distant.
Members of the Steunenberg family
Immediately rushed to the scene OF
the explosion. The gate had been shat
tered into a thousand bits and lying
in the midst Of the debris was the for
mer Governor. Both legs had been
carried away and what was left OF
the body was horribly cut and bruised.
"Who shot me-" muttered Steunen-
berg family, He then lapsed off into
Inconsistencies. He was carried into
. the. house and died twenty minutes
later. He never recovered conscious
ness.
The authorities are firmly convinced
that the assassination was the result
of the prominent part Steunenberg
played i'm the prosecution Of the Occur
D'Alene dynamiters while Governor in
1899. His life has frequently been
threatened by men identified with the
inner circle of the dynamiters.

PROCLAIM WAR.
Russians Rebels Formally Proclaim
for Armed Uprising.


1t is no longer a strike but an open,
armed rebellion, in Russia. The council
of wOrkmen met secretly in st. Peters
burg Saturday night and after an eight
hour session adopted a resolution to call
off the strike Monday because the fight
of the people against the government can
no longer be limited TO the disorganiza-
tion Of the economic life of the nation
through a universal strike and is al
ready in many parts of the country TAX
ing on the character of an armed upris-
ing" THE council of workmen's depu-
ties the resolution concludes, decides
to proceed Immediately with warlike OPP
Grating and the organization Of an armed
uprising"
The council recognized that the at
tempt of an immediate uprising could
not succeed in the capital, but while
making preparations it would be neces-
sary to undertake sort of guerrilla war
fare, consisting of the disarh.ing of police
and soldiers wherever they are found
alone in the streets, the use of bombs
from ambush and other acts of terror.
The council drew up a proclamation
to the Cossacks warning them that il
they continued to fight against the peo-
pie they would be treated like mad dogs
and if they desired to be treated like
brothers they should remain in their bar
racks. An appeal was also drawn UP re-
questing the proletariat of all countries
to support the fight begun at Moscow.
