The gala suit of Captain Lawton was
easily adjusted to his huge frame, and
his companion being ready, they once
more took their route toward the cottage.
Miss Peyton accosted them with smil-
ing welcome. Frances glided about tear
full and agitated, while Mr.. Wharton

Singleton sat in the parlor, while her

to reprove his patient for imprudence.
Into this scene Captain Lawton moved
with all the composure and gravity of a

Girls as Smart as Boys.

President Seelye of Smith college
says that not every girl should go to
college, and does not recommend the
college education for those who are
stupid or slow and have little or no
ambition to be wiser than they are
The wonder is that such girls could
ever get ready for college in the way
OF passing the examination. He says
that in the secondary schools one often
finds girls as intelligent as boys, a
statement of fact so obvious that one
wonders that President Seelye should
make it. One of the advantages he
names as resulting from college edu-
cation is the power it gives a girl to de-
yelop desirable social traits.

SLEEVE IN PLACE. woman has Invent
ed a simple contrivance which does
away with all these trying perplexi-
ties, and she thinks so highly of the
device that she has had it patented in
the United States. AS shown in illus
tration, it comprises narrow elastic
band, having on each end a ring, one
being larger than the other. Attached
to the band is double cord. In using
this device the band is formed into a
lasso (by slipping the smaller ring
through the larger one), which is slip
ped over the end of the sleeve of the
waist. The fine end of the band is then
scored to the thumb by the ring The
cord is attached to the little finger.
After slipping the arm into the sleeve
of the coat the ring on the thumb is
released and the band pulled out of the
armhole by means of the cord.

HIT BY THREE FLYING FISH.
They Were Pursued by Hungry BIZ

They Were Pursued by Hungry BIZ
nito, the Quarry of a shark.
Over at the foot of 9th street,
South Brooklyn, not far from acres OF
laid-up yachts, is cabled to the shore
the st. Lucia barkentine Savoia, her
steel hull and spars almost hidden by
a pile of cedar logs that have been ex-
tracted by q winch and derrick from
her interior, says the New York World.
The cedar is from Santa Cruz, Cuba,
but the incident of her smooth, sue
cessful voyage is the luck Of her plucky
steward in being hit by three flying
fishes, knocked to the deck and landing
on the winged behring's without injury
to his own feelings.
1T was at the close of day off the
Bahamas, with the wind from the no.
east and the barkentine on 1t, making
a fair picture, with square sails and
fore and aft cloths all set, as they had
been all the passage, and the vessel
dippingand recovering to roll the other
way.
While Captain Fernandez and the
mate were at sea the steward, who
has had a heap Of experience with
leaping herring, went forward to cool
his brow in the fresh, smart breeze.
The air was clear and the northeast
breeze pushed up the uneasy surface Of
semitropical sea in regular pyramids
of green edged and capped with white.
While the steward gazed and the
breeze caught his hair, tragic pro-
cession, one of natures dog-eat-dog ex-
hibitions, headed like the fight of fox
and hounds, for the bouncing barken-
tine, distinctly marked in the red glare
of the sinking sun, at which time pur-
suing fish are the most voracious.
IN the van We're three flying fish,
which had sprung from rising wave
about eighty fathoms to windward, the
impetus of the sea, their own jump,
the wind and their poised fins bearing
them in a graceful curve for the ship.
Indeed, they had seemed, previous to
their final jump to steer their fight
for the Savoias foredeck, there to seek
safety.
Chasing the flying fish was a huge
bonito, some ten fathoms astern and
gliding down the descending roof of q
wave, while only six fathoms astern
of the hungry bonito was a still hum
grier shark keen for It's preying prey.
AS the flying herring came on, the
ship fell as If to receive them over the
bulwark and the three of them struck
the steward with mighty force OH the
breast and face, bowling him over
upon his back, while the bonito smote
shark, disturbed by the onward rush
of the barkentine, dived and the bonl4
to fell to the windward of his enemy.
The steward picked himself up I'M
hurt and gathered up his flying fishes.
which he vanished and mounted upon
a PLAGUE, where they are to be seen

ROBBERY OF
STATION AGENT
Office Of Northern Pacific
at Kamiah Held Up By
Masked Men
Special to Evening Teller.

Special to Evening Teller.
KAMIAH, Idaho, July 22-The
Northern Pacific depot was held up
by three masked men at 10 o'clock
last night, who at the point of revolt
vers compelled Agent H. w. McGar-
rah to open the company's safe and
deliver it's contents. consisting of $49O.
The agent describes the men as being
very large and states they left on
horses toward the Clearwater river
which is but short distance from the
depot grounds.
The robbery was not reported to the
towns people until after o'clock this
morning and no effort has been made
to follow the robbers from this point.
The agent made the first report to
the railroad officials at o'clock this
morning and it is understood officials
of the company and peace officers have
been detailed to make an investigation
of the circumstances.
The report of the robbery came as
great surprise to the citizens of Kam-
iah on account of the absence of the
criminal element in this community.
The country is free from thievery of all
kinds and the citizens are strongly fa-
vorable to law and order.
Agent McGarrah has been at the
Kamiah station since July 1. having
been sent here to relieve Agent john
son, who is away on his summer vaca-
tion. He came here from Rosalia,
where he has been acting as telegraph
operator.
IT didn't want to take any chances"
he said. when relating the circumstan-
ces Of the robbery this morning. "They
pointed their guns at me and told me
to open the safe and 1 thought 1t was
the best for me to do as bid"
