Little Besgar Is Recognized as Lost
Child Of Wealthy Parents.

MOSCOW, Russia, Nov 1.-The
crowd of promenaders on the liver
skayi witnessed Wednesday, the end
ing of tragedy which had its begin
ming at the battle of Laio YaLg. A
smart landau drawn by fine team of
horses drew up to a restaurant The
occupants a handsome officer and his
wife. stepped out and at the mo-
ment little beggar girl, tattered and
torn, drew near extending her hand
with a piteous appeal for aims. The
lady fumbled around in her pocket
book and drew out the desired coin
and was about to hand it to the beg
gar girl, but upon catching sight of
the girls face she uttered a scream
and rushing forward, threw her arms
around her neck and began hugging
and kissing her. After this The officer,
his wife and the little girl drove away.
The following explanation of the scene
was obtained later.
During the battle of LaiO Yang. the
officer was in command of a regiment
and lived with his wife and daugh
ter in a,Chinese hut near the scene of
opera lions. When the flight of the Rus
sian soldiers began they We're followed
by bands of rowing bandits, who burned
and looted everything they could lay
their hands on. In the panic which
followed the disordered retreat the Of
ficer's daughter, very young girl,
was lost A few days later a detach-
ment of Russian soldiers put the ban
dts to fight and regained much of
the plundered goods. They found also
the little girl. whom they took along
with them. One of the soldiers took a
great fancy to her and when he was
wounded and sent to recuperate at
Moscow, she went with him.
In Moscow the man died ard the
little girl was left alone to wander the
streets and live on the pittances she
could beg. Good fortune led her to the
street where her parents We're driving.

State Borrows $4,000.

Just before the issuance of the
governors proclamation yesterday the
state of Washington borrowed $15O,OOO
from the permanent school fund for
the general fund. The necessity of the
issue has been apparent for some time.
This amount with the tax and license
revenues coming in during December
will probably run the state until jan
uary 1, when another issue win be ne
cessary to provide cash until the spring
tax payments come in, says an Olym-
pia report.
Under the new law that created the
state board of finance the state must
now pay "a per cent interest on
loans from the permanent school fund.
Heretofore it has had the benefit of a
31-2 per cent rate, but the new law
places the minimum a quarter cent
higher.

FINDS NO TRACE OF HORSES
ALLEGED THEFT STILL BATTLES
EFFORTS OF COUNTY
OFFICIAL.

The county sheriff's office has not up
to the present time received further in
formation regarding the alleged theft
of 80 head of horses belonging to Dan
Hayes, a well known rancher living
near Black Snake Hill
From the very incomplete description
given Sheriff Haviland it is highly
probable that the search will prove
fruitless. Mr.. Hayes seemed at COM
plete loss when asked as 70 the num-
Der of the horses owned by him, but
seemed to know exactly the number
stolen Mr. Hayes admitted that he had
not seen the horses for some time.
Sheriff Havilahd Immediately invest1-
gated the case but up to the present
time has been unable to account for
their disappearance.

CHARGE OF DESERTION
FROM U. S. ARMY.

A man Subscription tailed al
most exactly with that of OHM Russell,
a deserter from the Fourteenth caval-
ry. was arrested about noon today by
Officers Rolf and McCauley. The man
most emphatically denied knowing
anything whatever about the charge
upon which he was arrested, but was
nevertheless taken to the police station.
Upon advice from the commanding
officer of the fort, the supposed 90,
serter was taken to the garrison this
afternoon. The man evidently spoke
the truth from the first. as it was
established without a doubt he was
not Russell. His release followed
shortly after his interview with the
commanding officer.

Knives Are TINY Saws.

Knives, no matter how carefully
sharpened, are little saws. The grind
Ing away of the steel, done by the
stone, is not an even work, but when
the edge gets thin is a process Of tear,
Ing away tiny bits Of steel by the grit
Of the stone. This tearing makes the
teeth. A fine stone makes fine teeth. a
coarse stone coarse teeth. A carving
knife used on meat is sharpened on a
coarse stone or a steel and has coarse
teeth, although its edge is thick. Its
action in parting the meat is more that
of a saw than a fine wedge. No matter
how soft it may be it will not cut
easily unless it is drawn over the meat
and not simply pressed down. A razor,
however, with its paperlike edge, will
cut into flesh with a. simple pressure
It Is a wedge dividing the fibers Of
flesh just as wedge Of iron divides
the fibers of the log it splits. But a
razor is a saw, too, only as it is ground
on the finest stones and later finished
with leather strap, its teeth are very
fine indeed hundreds and hundreds to
the inch Of blade. &C. II. Claudy In st.

. w. p. Stafford, assistant botanfst In
the bureau of plant industry In the
United States department Of agricul-
ture, has arrived ia Washington after
an extended trip throughout Mexico
studying plant life since last Decem-
Der. The government ordered him to
ascertain what plants and plant prod
ucts might adyantag eously be trans
planted to those sections Of the United
States which, like Arizona, New Mex-.
leo and Texas, are similar In climate
and soil to some sections Of Mexico
At Monterey Mr.. Stafford found
drouth resisting fruits and grains,
which can be transplanted to the arid
regions Of those states and help ma
terially to make those sections pro-
ductiye. He also found valuable types
OF beans and red pepper, which need
little moisture to grow Iuxuriantly.
Near Saltiilo he found very fine corn
that was grown without irrigation and
with very little rain In the vicinity
he noted excellent specimens Of april
cots, peaches lettuce. carrots, beets,
squashes, pumpkins and other veg
etables produced without irrigation.
He considers bis discoveries exceed
ingly valuable and important and says
that II these vegetables viii grow IN
Texas with as little annual rainfall as
they do Id Mexico every portion Of the
southwest can be turned into mag

Origin Of Curtain Calls.

The first curtain call took place on
the evening OF Feb. &c, 174S. On that
memorable evening Voltaire's Me
rope" was performed for the first time
In Paris. The author was known to the
Paris public, but nothing that they had
seen Of his had pleased them so much
MS "Merope," and the enthusiasm found
expression in noisy demands to see the
author. In. a letter voltaire says this
Of the incident: 'They dragged ME out
and led me by force to the box occu-
pied by the Duchesse de Villars and
her daughter-in-law. The whole thea.
ter seemed to have gone mad-7all
shouted to the duchesse to kiss me.
The noise became so great that the
lady finally obeyed. So 1 was, like
Alain Charter, publicly kissed, but he
was asleep, while I was wide awake"
Now authors answer similar calls by
appearing before the curtain. They
gain In SO far that they can be seen
better by their audience, but they must
dispense with the duchesse's kiss-at
least in public. Berliner TageblaH. =
