When you note the many smart
men there are in the country-the
men who are inventing new things,
and the others who are doing great
things-does your own insignificance
ever occur to you?

Dakota that will afford you more OPP
portunities than Denbigh.

The Denbigh Brick company has its
large building we'll under way. and it's
completion is but question of a very
short time. We understand there is a
movement on foot to locate several
other sand-lime brick plants in this
immediate vicinity and that eastern
capital is being Interested to this eff
feet. If this is the case, all we can
say at this time is that the sand that
is found here is OF the very best quail
ity for the manufacture of this kind
OF brick. and We believe that Dem
bigh is destined to be the leading
point for the manufacture of brick in
the state.
The seeding in this part of the state
is going forward at a rapid rate, and,
while the season is somewhat later
than usual. yet the average farmer
has his work we'll under way, and we
predict that the acreage will not fall
far short of the usual amount
We understand from very good au-
thority that it is the intention of the
Denbigh Brick company to establish
an electric light plant at the factory,
and that possibly they may extend the
service and accommodate the bust
ness houses and residences. Should
they do this there is no town in the
state the size OF ours that will be so
we'll lighted.
The residence of ]. A. Peterson is
being rapidly pushed to completion by
X. A. Pritchert, the contractor. This
residence when finished will be one OF
the finest in town. Mr.. Peterson is
manager of the Imperial Lumber COM
pany at this place and one of our sub
stantial business men.
Mr.. Frank P. Casey has again as
sumed active management of the liv-
cry barn, and this popular stable is
receiving the patronage it we'll de-
serves. Cor. D.

his senses, a more terrible apparition
than any visitor from beyond the

meant penal servitude for life for Vic

palatial chambers, bread and skilly in
place Of Carlton luncheons.
No wonder the scoundrel was dumb,
that his tongue was dry. He went
cold all over, and his eyes swan.
Philip advanced toward him. Grenier
could not move. He was glued to his
chair

Can you not speak? Who are you

striving to murder me?"
No answer. The shifty eyes-the
eyes of a detected pickpocket-wander-
ed stupidity from Philips set face to
that of the perplexed hotel manager
and the gravely amused doctor
Philip never used strong language
but he was greatly tempted at that
moment

manager.

The question was unusual in its form,
disturbing in its innuendo. The man
who asked it was pale, with unnatural
~ brilliant brown eyes, a gentleman in
manner. but attired IN i'll fitting gar
ments, and beneath his tweed cap he
wore 4 surgical bandage.
And Philip Arson. the millionaire, of
whom he spoke thus contemptuously

for its best rooms.
But the manager was perfectly civil

HYDE WOULD GIVE
BACK A MILLION
OFFERS TO RESTORE FUNDS IF
SUITS AGAINST HIM ARE DROP
PED-NOW LIVING IN PARIS.

NEW YORK, December flames
Hazen Hyde, who was compelled to sell
control of the Equitable Life Assur-
ance Society to. Thomas F. Ryan in
1905 following disclosures of his mis-
management of the company, has Of
fered to make restitution to the COM
pany of various sums, aggregating APP
proximately $1OOO,OOO, provided all
suits against him, including those
brought by the Attorney General on
behalf of the State of New York, be
withdrawn.
Up to the present time Mr.. Hyde's
offer has not been accepted.
The offers were made on behalf of
Mr.. Hyde through his attorney, Samuel
Untermeyer.
Mr.. Hyde left this country in the
fall Of 1905. after he had appeared as
witness before the legislative insur-
ance investigation conducted by Chas.
E. Hughes. Before leaving he sold his
magnificent country place at Bay
Shore, l.. L., his horses and carriages
his private car and nearly everything
he could convert into cash. He went
to Paris, where he has since lived in
princely style.
For the SOP shares which represented
the stock control of the Equitable and
carried it with not only the domination
of that immense company, but the
Mercantile Trust Company, the Equit-
able Trust Company and several other
important financial institutions. Mr..
Ryan paid lLr. Hyde $2,5OO,OO0. The
fees of his lawyers and the other ex-
penses of his long campaign to retain
control of the Equitable amounted "a
approximately 100000,
If his offer of S1,OOOOOO is accepted
he will have but $1,OOOOOO left of the
money he got from Mr.. Ryan for part
ing with one of the most valuable cor
porate properties in the country. This
of course does not represent all OF
Mr. Hyde's wealth, as he is believed to
have several millions invested in other
properties.
Some few of the other fifty di-
rectOrs of the Equitable under the old
regime have made offers of settlement
but for trivial amounts compared with
the sum offered by Mr.. Hyde.

JAPANESE FIGHT
FOR THEIR DEAD
LABORERS REFUSE TO YIELD
BODIES OF COUNTRYMEN TO
THE CORONER.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 27.-An I'M
usual and exciting experience was had
by Coroner H. G. Plymire, of San Ma
teo County when he proceeded over
to the coast to what is known as san
Pedro Point. Coroner Plymire had
been notified that several men had
lost their lives in a landslide on the
Ocean Shore road, and Immediately re-
paired to the designated locality,
when to his surprise, he was informed
by a stocky little Japanese that two
of his COuntrymen had been killed, but
that he could not come near or see
them.
Plymire persuaded and threatened in
vain, but the little brown man was ue-
termined. The doctor then told
him that he would have to desist or he
would bring armed men to accomplish
what he intended whereupon about Is
more Japanese lined up, and crowding
around DR.. Plymire, told him in an in
solent and threatening manner that
they would be ready for him or any
one whom he might bring. They stout

TOXIC, Dec 4-There is little doubt
that the business men Of Japan are
distinctly opposed to an increase of

prises Barons Shibusawa and Sonoda
and other leaders frankly say that the
strain of the special efforts made on

it would condemn the country to a

The last game of baseball this year
with any big team as one of the con-
testants, will be played this afternoon
between the Saints and Fishers All
Star team. The Saint Louis team will
certainly try hard to take the game
away from the coast players and the
game ought to be well worth going
to see. Barney JOY will be in the box
for the local team. with Soares on the
receiving end.
Fisher has agreed to put Henley in
the box for his team, and it is very
probable that DevereauX and Williams
will also have a chance to pitch for
one or two innings. DOnahue will be
back with his team at second for one
or two innings. Donahue will be
back with his team at second, while
Hildebrand will try his luck at short.
Burns. Heitmuller and Eastwood will
be in the outfield while Nealon, De-
vereaux and Bliss will remain in their
usual positions.
The Saints are confident that if they
are beaten it will be by very small
score. If Leslie is able to play he will
pitch for a few innings with JOY behind
the bat Jimmy Williams will be I'M
able to play on account of business, but
his brother Johnny will do his best to
fill his place
The game will start at three o'clock
sharp and it is hoped that a large
crowd will be on hand to say goodbye
to the coast players. Quite a number
of stores will close at two, so as to
allow their employees a chance to see
the came.

SPOR T
SPORT NOTES

The prospects for a series of foot
ball games i'm the near future between
the Diamond Heads, Punahous and Ka-
mehameha teams are very good, ana
the first league game will probably be
played shortly after New Years.
The presence of the baseball team
has taken the players away from prac-
tisc, but they are talking very serious
ly about getting into condition at once
It is very doubtful if the Saint Louis
Alumni will have a team on the gridi-
ron this year, as none of the old foot
ball players are anxious about getting
in the game again.
The original plan was to have had
the first game on December p, but
none of the teams are in condition
and will be unable to play until after
the first of the year

ly refused to have him even view the
remains of the two unfortunates. who.
of course, were Japanese iaborers.
DR. Plymire finally realized that he
was powerless against the odds. and
after celebrating a short while called
to his assistance a number of white
workmen numbering about 80 in all.
and with these repaired again to the
scene. prepared this time to give bat
tie. The Japanese, now seeing the ad-
vancing army of whites, Immediately
submitted without further show Of re-
sistance, but first requested that they
be allowed to retain their dead, which
they said they wished to turn over to

promptly granted by the doctor and

The dead Japanese were working as
laborers on the Ocean Shore Railroad

large landslide, taking place suddenly,

rocks. Their companions, who were
all Japanese, eXhumed them and has
tily slowed them away in their beds

KING LEOPOLD GIVES UP
THE CONGO DOMAIN

BRUSSELS, Dec. 5.-King Leopold's
private domain in the Congo will pass
to Belgium and be subject to Belgian
laws. This is contrary to the general
supposition and is the most important
feature to the treaty anneXing the Con-
go State to Belgium.
King Leopold's agreement to this ac-
ton means that the stock company, IN
which the King is the largest holder,
will not exploit the crown domain and
receive all its revenues. 1t now ap-
pears from the treaty which Premier
