She considered for moment, and

A TRAGIC ROMANCE

In Oakland cemetery, at Raleigh,
N. c., stands a monument around
which fingers a romance that links
together Pennsylvania and North
Carolina, Philadelphia and Raleigh,
Angle-Saxon and Cherokee Indian
Some years ago William Sloan, an
architect from Philadelphia, went to
Raleigh to design various public
buildings, and with him went as
young man Albert G. Bauer, one of
his draughtsmen. At the same time
there was at the Oxford Orphanage
a Cherokee Indian girl, Little Ra-
chael, whose Cherokee name was
"Unaka," which means the White
Bear. She had lost her mother at
very early age, and her father, who
was prominent in his section as
Mason, died while she was quite
young. She was taken under the
protecting wing of the MasOns and
sent to their orphanage, where she
was carefully trained and later went
one of the leading Masons in the
state. When she and Bauer met
they fell in love, and neither being
aware that the state law forbids the
intermarriage of CherOkees and
whites they were married.
Immediately they went to Phila
delphia on their honeymoon and re-
manned there for some time. They
were on the point of returning to the
state when they discovered that they
had unwittingly violated the law, and
they decided to remain in Philadel-
phia until some sort of an arrange
ment was effected Their numerous
friends took immediate steps to Sc
cure the passage of a special act
legalizing their marriage. This was
done unanimously, and soon after
they returned to Raleigh and made
their home.
They prospered and surely no peo-
pie were ever happier, but in few
years maternity came, with fatal re-
suits, and then the sorrowing hus-
band laid mother and babe in their
last sleep on one of the slopes of the
cemetery, in most picturesque spot,
with stately oaks and graceful mag
nolias standing near. Over the grave
of the woman he had idolized he
raised a monument of his own de-
sign. 1t is of brownstOne, inlaid with
marble, and hearts, crosses and in
verted torches are emblems on the
various sides. 1t is surmounted by
an exquisite marble duplicate of the
world-famous temple of Diana at
Ephesus. This was at once the work
and the gift of Philadelphia friend
of Bauer, himself an artist of much
ability Within the pillared portico
of this stately structure, in the door

BIG Tim SHOES 5000 FOLKS
4 MEMORABLE DISTRIBUTION
AMONG BOWERY POOR BY A
NEW YORK POLITICIAN.

NEW YORK.-The winter holds
two big days for the Bowery-that
part of the Bowery which is waiting
for something to turn up. 1t is nat
ural enough that Big Tim SulIivan's
name should be attached to both of
these really big days-and it is. The
first of the days is Christmas, when
the big Fellows" dinner is pulled
off-free feed for the asking, and
big feed at that. At these Christ
mas dinners, the last course which
is handed out-and this one the men
get on their way from the feeding
hall to the streets a ticket which
is good for a pair of shoes and socks.
The second big day, then, comes early
in February when these tickets are
redeemed Today was the day.
Both of these functions take place
at the Sullivan headquarters, 207
Bowery. Between $500 and 5000
shoe tickets were given out last
Christmas and most of them were
presented today.
There is not such lot of form
atty about the distribution. The
same 5000 pair of shoes, with cor
responding number OF good warm
socks are piled up in two or three
rooms and are brought into the meet
ing hall of the headquarters as fast
as needed. Half a dozen or so of
the local leaders take charge Of the
giving out of the boxes. The men
are kept in line by the police; as
each man steps up to the counter,
which is placed at the platform of
the hall, he tells the size of shoe he
likes to wear, when he can have his
choice, and a box with shoes and
socks is given him and he walks out,
still in line.
Little Tim" ran today's distribu-
ton, as he has run them for the past
four years; the Big Fellow came in
for awhile, but there were too many
calls for speech and all that sort
of thing to suit him, and, after see
| ing that everything was going all
right, he went away again.

CHILD MOONsHINERs.
Three Ten-Year-OIds Found by ''Rev.

enOOrs" Making Brandy.
An Asheville, N. c., dispatch says:
A party of revenue officers, who re-
turned yesterday from the notorious
York settlement in Dark Corner"
South Carolina, where six distilleries
and 1000 gallons of beer were de-
stroyed by the same officers three
weeks ago, reported that they had
found three children, none over 10
years old, making brandy with still
they had constructed themselves.
This is one of the most out-ofthe-
way sections in the country, and
when the officers made the raid they
found little apparent effort to hide
the stills. The children, evidently,
had seen the work going on all their
lives, and had been brought up to
look on it as an honorable means of
making a livelihood.
The still used by the children con-
sisted of a wooden bucket for a
cap" a pair of kegs for "dOublers"
and a bored-out poplar limb for a
worm" through which brandy was
trickling into a beer bottle.
Think of it," said a member of
the party in speaking of the incident,
these little children, not one of them
older than 10, engaging in such
work. Some children play at keep
ing house, but these we're not only
playing 'moonshiners, but they were
actual 'moonshiners, because they
were making brandy"

Three Outcasts.
In places there are stream beds
where perhaps once in several years
heavy rains in distant mountains will
cause water to flow for short time.
In these dry watercourses several
varieties of stunted tree forms are
often found. The desert willow,
which resembles the willow with
which we are familiar though much
smaller in size; the valverde or green
tree, a tree which is a bright green
from trunk to tip of limb in every
twig; and the ironwood, so dense in
hbre that it turns an axes edge, are
the principal varieties. They are
rarely above 20 feet high, and, like
all desert vegetation, have not a leaf
They are apparently outcasts from
the two great tree divisions, decidu-
GUS and citrus, for they have leaves
neither to lose nor to keep. These
may be called the living dogs of the
tree family; we will find here also
the dead lions.
Not far from the mountain range
we will come upon the remains of
what were once extensive forests of
gigantic trees, now turned to stone
and lying as they fell centuries ago.
The great trunks, perfect in grain,
knot and bark fiber, cumber the
ground in tangled confusion in those
places which have been protected
from the drifting sand, giving evil
dence that what is now a desert was
once upon time a tropical wilder
ness.

LEG GRATED ON A MAN.
A Rare Operation Was Performed a
Few Days Ago.


A Washington dispatch says the
grating of a leg and knee from
man but few moments dead to the
stump of living man is the rare
operation which is said to have been
performed some days ago at George
town University Hospital by DR..
George Tully Voughn. The hospital
authorities will not discuss the mat
ter save to say that there are indi-
cations of success.
George A. Kelly, of 1857 Twenty
third street northwest, was taken to
the hospital suffering from a dis
eased kneecap which seemed to ne
cessitate the amputation of his leg.
The hospital physicians, it is said,
obtained the permission of relatives
of another white man, whose name
is kept secret, and who was dying, to
amputate his leg as soon after death
as possible and endeavor to graft the
limb. This was done, it is declared,
and now Mr.. Kelley has a left leg
grated just above his knee. The
bone was wired together with sill
yer, and the surgeons hope the re-
markable operation will be a sue
cess.

Advent

The thoughts expressed in the service
of last Sunday morning clustered around
one word, "Light.'' The text was from
Gen. 1:3, "And God said, let there be
light and there was light" God himself
is light, and the author of it. Its separa-
ton from darkness is typical of practical
Christianity apart from error. AS God
gave light to the Israelites when the
Egyptians were in darkness, so He can
enlighten us. His word is light and will
lead us into truth, and ultimately to the
New Jerusalem. 1t is.God's searchlight,
and if our deeds are not evil we need not
fear its inspection. ! John 1867, Christ
is light, to the gentiles and to the world.
The Son of Righteousness, whose light
extends through the centuries Also the
Holy Spirit is light, typified by the pillar
of fire to guide through the wilderness.
The Saints are the light of the world.
Are we hiding our light " under a bush
el?" We are commanded to let our
light shine. A beacon light is most need
ed in time of storm.
In the evening Pastor Wales spoke
from Rev. 22:3, 21:4-5, "No more curse"
Wheres Upon the earth where it was
pronounced IN the beginning When
shall there be no more curse? When
Christ returns to claim his own, in earth'S
glad morning.

AT THE CHURCHES
Methodist

The subject taken by Mr.. Best last
Sunday was 1.-The Kindness of the King"
and the text was found in 2 Sam. OIL,
"As for Mephibosheth, said the king, he
shall eat at my table, as one of the king S
sons"
If King Edward would go down into
the slums and adopt child the papers
would be full of it, but we don't think of
the King of Kings STOPPING down into
this poor world. and taking poor sinsick
soul and adopting him into the Royal
family. Mephibosheth was of the house
hold of Saul and Saul is typical of the
first man, Adam-of the earth, earthly.
When the news reached the palace that
saul was overthrown, Mephibosheth was
picked up by his nurse and in her flight
She dropped him, so that he was lame in
both feet We, too, are lame on both
feet, but we try to hide among the things
of the world and we don't want Goo to
find us.
David, the second king of Isreal, is
typical of Christ's life. When David
came to his kingdom, he remembered
one thing and that was his oath to Jona-
than: " will show the kindness of God
to the house of Saul. So when man
had fallen into sin, God made promise
to our first parents that he would bruise
the head of the serpent and lie invites
them to come to Him as David invited
the son of Jonathan to come TO the
palace.
We are the same as Mephibosheth to-
day-lanir on both our feet. Many, in
stead OF treating the matter seriously,
mock and trampie it under their feet. 1t
is a serious matter to be summoned be-
fore the King. Suppose Mephibosheth
had found fault with David's sons or
made excuses. That is what many do
to-day. They begin to find fault with the
church members and they say they are
just as good as so and so.
Mephibosheth was saved not for his
own sake, but for his fathers sake, be-
cause David loved Jonathan-so God
saves us For Christ's sake"

On Sunday morning at the Universal
list church the pastor, Rev. Otto S.
Raspe, preached helpful sermon from
the text, "And Jesus said unto him, I
am the Way, the Truth and the Life"
He said in part:
These words, as spoken by Jesus, the
Christ, represent the three mighty pill
lars upon which the superstructure of
Christianity rests. Embedded in the
solid rock of a life consistent with the
precepts promulgated, the foundation of
! the Christian religion cannot be shaken,
even though the tempests of atheistical
reasoning and the wild waves of capri
cious doctrine beat upon it with relent-
less fury. Its strength is in Christ, the
Rock of the Ages Every precept
uttered by the sacred lips of the Master
is fortified by the practical example of
his life, You cahnot separate Christ,
the founder and promulgator of Christ
ian ethics, from Christ, the living testi-
monial of the power and efficacy of his
gospel. Jesus as an Individual soul, and
Jesus as an apostle of righteousness,
are inseparably united. His life, in all
its fulness, majesty and splendor, is the
completed spiritual edifice of character,
designed in the likeness of the Divine
| and constructed with the material of the
Christian faith. Christ is thus the en-
bodiment of Christianity. He not only
taught his fellowmen the principles of
morality as related to human faith, duty
and destiny; but by the expression of
| his daily life he vitalized his religion.
| In the mirror of his perfect life are re-
| Elected the grandeur and potency of his
| teachings; in turn, in the mirror of His
| Holy Word reflects the nobleness of his
character To know Christ is to under
stand the principals of Christianity.
