CHAPTER yyI-(ContinuedD J


Maddy could not explain why it was
that she felt glad the doctor would tell
Guy. She did not analyze any of her feel
ings, or stop to ask why she should care
to have Guy Remington know the answer
she had given DR.. Holbrook. He was
going to him now, she was sure for he
arose to leave her, saying he might not
see her again before she returned to New
York. She did not mention his bill. That
was among the bygones. thing never
again to be talked about. and offering
him her hand, she looked for an instant
earnestly into his face, then without a
word, hurried from the room. while the
doctor. with sad, heavy heart, went in
quest of Guy.
Refused you. did you say?" and Guy s
face certainly looked brighter than it had
before since he left the doctor with
Maddy Clyde.
Yes, refused me, as l might have
known she would" was the doctors re-
ply, spoken so naturally that Guy looked
up quickly to see if he really did not care.
But the expression of the face belied
the calmness of the voice; and, touched
with genuine pity, Guy asked the cause of
the refusal-'preference for anyone else,
or what?"
No, there was no one whom she pre-
ferred. She merely did not like me well
enough to be my wife, that was ALL" the
doctor said, and then he tried to talk of
something else but it would not do. The
wound was yet too fresh and sore to be
covered up. and in spite of himself the
bearded chin quivered and the manly
voice shook as he bade good-by to Guy
and then went galloping down the avenue
Great was the CONSERVATION among the
doctors patients when it was known that
their pet physician--the one in whose
skill they had so much confdence-was
going to Europe, where in Paris he could
perfect himself in his profession. Some
cried, and among them Agnes some said
he knew enough already; some tried to
dissuade him from his purpose some won
dered at the sudden start, while only
two knew exactly why he was going
Guy and Maddy the former approving
his decision and lending mis- influence to
make his tour abroad as pleasant as pos
sible; and the latter weeping bitterly as
she thought how she had sent him away,
and that If aught befell him on the sea or
in that distant land. she would be held
amenable. Once there came over her the
wild impulse to bid him stay, to say that
she would be his wife; but, ere the rash
act was done, Guy came down to the cot
tage, and Maddys resolution gave way at
once.
Two weeks afterward, Aikenside pre-
sented again a desoate, shut-up appear
ance, for Agnes, Maddy and Jessie had
returned to New York Agnes to continue
the siege which, in despair of winning the
doctor. she had commenced against rich
old bachelor, who had house on Madison
Square; and Maddy to her books, which
ere long oblterated, in a measure, the
bitter memory of all that had transpired
during her winter vacation.

UNCLE SAM A CAPITALIST.
As Shipbuilder Outranks All
Others in the United States.

AS onlppulluer OuCranKS AL
Others in the United States.
The United States government main
tains nine navy yards, representing a
capitalization Of more than SG0,0OO,O ,O0O
and employing nearly $4,000 men, In
Guiding officers. The total wages paid
in the navy yards Of the government Is
approximately $l0,0OO,00O annually,
the cost of materials used oelng about
100000 annually and the value Of
the products, depending upon the num-
Der of vessels built, runs we'll up into
the millions every year. In 1905 the
output Of the government yards was
over $17,OOO,OOO.
As shipbuilder the government out.
ranks all other ship owners In the
United States. In 1904 the government
launched 10000 tons of battle ships
Of more than 1000 tons burden each.
While only 81 per cent Of all vessels
launched that year were the property
Of the nation, these vessels constituted
27.7 per cent Of the total tonnage
launched that year. These same yes
sells represented also more than half
the value Of all vessels over five tons
launched, the contract value of the
government ships being $39,513,6OO
Despite its own facilities for building
and repairing warships, only one gov
ernment yard has been used in recent
years for turning out a modern up-to
date battle ship.
All told, the government owns flf'
teen dry docks where vessels Of the
navy undergo most Of their repairs
All but two Of these are located on the
Atlantic coast. Another dock Is being
completed on Puget sound, giving three
on the Pacific coast. In addition h
the naval dry docks there are thirty
eight in the United States owned by
private corporations or individuals. In
time Of war the navy should find no
trouble in taking care Of its smaller
vessels, but the big battle ships would

Can Copper BE Madef

That the recent experiments of Sir
William Ramsay, the English chemist, are
not likely to result in the artificial man.
ufacture of copper is the conclusion Of
President Ira Remsen, who recently made
an address on the subject before the Sci
entifc Association of the Johns Hopkins
university at Baltimore. DIR. Remsen
said that the experiments in question
indicated that the substance we call cop
per, and which we have hitherto regarded
as a stable elementary form of matter is
capable Of undergoing very slight de-
composition, but while 1t is possible that
minute quantity Of the element lithium
can be obtained from copper by the ac-
ton Of radium emanation, the change Is
very slight, and it does not seem proba-
BILE that any method can be devised by
which 1t can be markedly increased.

According to the report of the New
York State Commission on Lunacy, the
total number Of persons confined in in
stitutions for the insane in that State is
26,357. This is a proportion Of about
one to every 300 of the population. The
indications are that insanity has been
steadily on the increase since 1897. While
the percentage Of foreign born to the
population is %, the percentage of for
eign-born insane Is 40. Insane patients
Of Irish and German nativity are on the
decrease, while those Of Russia, Austria
Hungary and Italy are increasing.

development
REMOVAL OF DUTY FROM CANA
DIAN LUMBER WOULD INJURE
THE TIMBER INTERESTS IN
THIS STATE,

1.-The action Of congress relative
to removing the tariff on Canadian
lumber will largely determine the
immediate future of the lumber in
dustry in the lewiston country"
said e. S. Struble, western buyer for
the Chicago firm of True & True.
AT the present time there is a
duty OF 81 per 1000 on Canadian
lumber, and still large quantities are
shipped into the United States. The
removal Of this tariff would greatly
increase the importation OF this
produce. and the competition result
ing would doubtless decrease the cut
In the United States, and especially
In the Northwest. Under these con-
ditions we could not expect a mate
rial development Of the vast timber
resources Of he Clearwater country.
and the action Of congress will. be
awaited with much interest by lum-
bermen interested in this section.
Under the present rate Of lum-
Der manufacture in the United
States the years Of the industry are
numbered and while but a few years
ago lumber marufnc 'urers Of the
Middle West states believed the sup
ply unlimited. It Ia now evident that
the next few years will witness the
completion Of the cut in many dis
tricts."
Mr.. Struble has received instruc-
tions from his Arm to make the
usual purchases in the Lewiston ter.
ritory next season. but present quo
tations do not indicate any advances
In prices. The purchases this year
aggregated about 100000 feet.

sPEED-WRECKERs BUILDING.
Some Water-Spurners Getting Ready
for the Spring.

The races between the speed launches
Mae, belonging to Mr.. Bruce Emerson
and the Kindo owned by Mr.. Will Moore
OF Alexandria. last summer attracted
much attention to this class of boat as
a sport producer. In consequence two
new speed launches will make their APP
pearance on the river next summer. and
it is said that others are being planned
and may be built.
Mr. Joseph Moore of Alexandria is
building at his home a 29-foot launch
which at it's widest part will be but four
and a half feet. and which is expected to
eclipse the performance of the Kindo.
which made over twenty-seven miles an
hour. The new boat of Mr.. Moore will be
a wedge-shaped craft. almost fiat on the
bottom and will draw but few inches
of water Ii will depend solely on it's
light draft. wedge shape and the power of
its engine to drive 1t at railroad speed
through the wate-. The type of engine
that will be installed in the boat has not
been determined, but Ii Is stated that one
manufacturer wants TO place fifty
horse power in her and Mr.. Moore is
considering his proposition.
Mr. Mothera1f the inventor of the air
cushion type of boat. which has been used
somewhat on the river, is building one of
his style of boats in a shed on the wharf
foot of 9th street southwest. This boat
will he ready for service in the spring.
and she will also try for the speed record
for power boats on the Potomac.
