ma yesterday.
The first to arrive over the North

the heaviest Of the colonist travel

JONES KNOCKED OF.
Falls From Balcony In His Store and
Long Afterward Was Still
Unconscious.

f. B. Jones, manager Of the East
ern Furniture company, met with an
accident Friday evening which may
result seriously. Mr.. Jones, while
showing a patron through the bal
cony at the Eastern furniture house
on West Yakima avenue, suddenly
pitched forward and fell to the floor,
about 10 feet below, striking on his
head.
Mr.. Jones is one of the best-known
young business men in the city and
is very progressive in his ideas. He
was in business in Sunnyside for sew
eral years, coming here some six
months ago. as he believed the op-
portunities for a hustler were great
er. He is member of the Masons
and of the Eagles.

ly 800. Arriving in Tacoma, he
wrote the proprietor that the repre-

would be here on certain date and
settle the account, later writing that
the date had been changed, and that
he would not arrive until a later
date.

stated that he was not without funds
and that he had never been arrested
before and in pleading his cause
cried like baby. Judge Preble In
allowing him to go said:
81 can conceive of no law that en-
dangers that most loved and hon
ored by the American people than
one which provides for the imprison-
ment of man for debt. You might
as well throw a man in Jail for a
grocery bill or whisky bill, or, in
fact, any account he. might owe, and
by SO doing work great injustice
on him.
eve might say here are two men
living side by side, neither more
beautifully supplied with the worlds
goods than is necessary. A owes a
bill of $40, while B owes nothing,
and is allowed to go to some other
part of the country, where he is en-
abled to earn money, but A casnot
leave his present location, and If he
does SO is returned and thrown in
Jail.
such laws were in effect hun
dreds of years ago, but a more en-
lightened people should not allow
them to be enforced at this day and
age"

 Ever since he was little bit of shaver" Charles Meredith has been with a circus, and the sight of the canvas tent, the blares of the brass band, the pun gent odor of the sawdust ring and the ever-ready ringmaster calling for the jokes he. sprang-for Meredith was the clown-have been his whole life. But 1t is all over, for Meredith is now a mill lionaire and Scotch gentleman. With in "A hours he was transformed from a clown into a Croesus, and at the same time discovered that his little brother, who he supposed had been dead for years. is still alive, and shares with him his good fortune.
 Meredith, for several seasons the prin- cipal clown in Cole Brothers circus. came here last evening from his home in Tole- do, Ohio, at the request of D. B. Keat- ing, an attorney from New York, who has been looking for him all over the country for the last six months. Heating brought with him William Meredith, also clown, and the younger brother, who was sup posed to be dead. The attorney had found the younger brother travelling with ci.- GUS in Australia The two Meredith boys are the sole heirs to fortune Of $2,50O,0OO left by their uncle, Richard Blaine, who died in Scotland eight months ago.
 The father was a circus performer and took the boys with him to Australia. Charles eventually came to this country and has been appearing here ever since, while his younger brother remained in the Antipodes, where he was supposed> to have died several years ago. While thay knew of the existence of their uncle, thesl never knew of his great wealth.

Despite his name Fouque was a thor ough German and fought with distinction against the French, attaining the rank of major His grandfather was a general under Frederick the Great His family was French originally. but his ancestors had emigrated to Prussia, and there was nothing left of French in them except the name when he made it famous.
 In the beginning of the 18th century Fouque was ono of the most celebrated authors of his time. Today practically all of his works have become forgotten, with the brilliant exception of one beau tiful story-"Dndine." It is quite just to characterize this exquisitely tender pure and brave tale as one of the very fine creations of the literary art of the world.
