QUE ON KA SER WILHELM TODAY
After Brief Reception at Erie Sta

Country place For Further Rest
Alexander Miller, Secretary Of Har-
riman Lines, Discusses His Chief
(By Associated Press).

NEW YORK. Aug. 23.-As tho
Kaiser Wilhelm ii hourly draws near
to her pier in New York, interest in
Z. II. Harrimans return grows acute.
The anxiety as to his health has
found expression in "a series of pub
lished appropriations Of his personality
and achievements such 'as probably
never before has been accorded
private citizen There is manifest dis
appointment in Wall street that Mr..
Harrimans sojourn abroad has not
set him up sufficiently Immediately to
resume active direction of the great
interests with which his name is as
sociated.
Tomorrow-the day he lands-bOth
the Southern and the Union Pacific di-
rectors are TO meet. but it has not
even been suggested from any au-
thcritative source tnat MIR. Hartman
will make any attempt TO attend these
meetings which are expected to de-
clare dividends and deal with other
matters of importance.
Needs Further Rest.
Or the contrary, after brief re-
ception at the Erie Railroad station
after leaving the steamship, he goes
direct to his New York home for
further rest
Alexander Miller, secretary OF the
Hartman lines. one of Mr.. Harri-
mans most trusted lieutenant, spoke
OF his chief today with a serious
ness and warmth that brought <the
tears to his eyes.
MIR. Hartman" said he. has been
pictured as an ogre, an octopus-you
don't know what a big hearted. big
souled man he really is. ! call him
today the biggest, the brainiest, the
most patriotic American we have.
In Sympathy With West.
Educated in Wall street. he has
none of that provinciaity sometimes
attributed to the born -and-bred New
Yorker. He was always in symps-
thy with the west and instinctively
OWNED its needs. Other men have
helped. but Hartman blazed the trial.
IF I should be asked to name the
chief characteristics that have con-
tributed to his success | should say:
His wizardry with figures, his faculty
for getting instantly to the knerel OF
facts, his judgment of men and his
insight into and faith in the future

and become bandit.
Attention, ALL" commands Antonio.
Listen to my words. If not, my fol-
lowers shall give sharper notice to
you!" And the crowd wisely becomes
still.
In pursuit of your suffrages, Sail
ceti has put base outrage on our hos
pitality," continues the bandit chief in
solemn tones. HE has abducted a
young English lady and brought her to
Bocognano to lure to death her hus-
band, an American Signore who shoots
well enough to be bandit and who
this night, with his own weapons, has
slain Rochini and Romano, whose mlC
ders have made you all tremble as you
went along mountain paths and whose
outrages have caused our maids to
have nightmares
"Rochini and Romano dead? Impos-
sible." cries a shepherd, as a sigh of
relief and then yell of gratitude rises
from the concourSe.
Il saw him shoot the ruffians to
death upon Del Orc, |, Antonio Bonelli.
Don't dare say no." This last is ad-
dressed to Saliceti who, having recov-
cred from his establishment is about
to open his mouth,
All you admit it. Maadetta, where
is the English LADY,"
And Saliceti, being admonished to
answer by a quick prick of the stiletto
from Bellacoscia youth who has
stepped behind him, the young politi-
clan falters forth: mo harm has come
to her. She is with nay mother"
On this Barnes has looked from a
distance, wisely rejecting that his bat
tie is being fought for him. but with
difficulty restraining his hands from
| putting pistol ball through Saliceti.
He now cries:
Then, for Gods sake, take me to
her quick"
This brings upon him the attention
of the crowd. Learning that 1t is he
who has relieved them of the terror of
Rochini, the men cry "Viva!" and en-
brace him, and little girl steals up to
him and timidly kisses his hand
Your lady shall receive you soon,
Signore Barnes" remarks Bonelli. 81

and at some words from him two or
three OF the young men having left
the hall on his errand, the hawk-eyed
bandit continues: Besides. l fear

CHAPTER XIV.
Before a Corsican Election.

Escorted by the mountaineers, two
stalwart young men carrying Made
moisele Paoli down the dizzy path,
they skirt the dread precipices of Del
Orc and passing the vinelands and the
clearings, come into the main road
leading from Corte, then descending
the hill are in the chestnut groves of
Bocognano.
Then their leader turns to Marina
and says: Have no fear, Signora;
your English sister shall be returned
to this gentleman, but" he lays his
hand on Barnes shoulder-"use not
the weapons | see at your belt. Thy
quarrel shall be my quarrel. No for
eigner shall ever be compelled to pro-
tect woman while |, Antonio Bonelli,
dominate Bocognano."
Were it not meeting night. every
thing would be silent save the dogs
and pigs" chuckles Tomasso Now
they'll have light enough to see am
alive
'Cospetto, they are making fete
for you, Monaldi," laughs one of the
young men, for lanterns are dangling
from the overhanging houghs of the
main street of the little village; some
of the houses are illuminated, and
round the communal building and the
wine shops are gathered many men.
The little party tramp through the
lantern-lighted streets, and coming to
the door OF the municipal building, the
loungers who are smoking their pipes
make way for them, dofilng their hats
and saying with great reverence: THE
Bellacoscia'"

PENALTIES OF GREAT PLACE.
Thrice Servants Those Who Have
Risen to High Estate.

Men in great place are thrice SER
vants-servants of the sovereign or
state, servants of fame, and servants
of business; so as they have no free
dom neither in their persons, nor in
their actions, nor in their times. 1t is
strange desire to seek power, and
to lose liberty, or to seek power over
others and to lose power over a mans
self. The rising unto place is labori-
ous and by pains men come to greater
pains. and 1t is sometimes base and
by indignities men come to dignities.
The standing is slippery and the re-
greet is either a downfall or at least
an eclipse, which is melancholy
thing. Cum non sis qui fueris. non

are not what you were, there is no
reason why you should wish to live.)

Bernardo himself.
Catching sight of the commanding

politician bursts out rapturously: "Ah.
