HE GETS LETTER WIFE
WROTE II YEARS AGO

DUNKIRK, N. Y, March 3d.
Levi G. Persons, 80. of Dunkirk,
has received a letter written to
him Nov. 2, 1862. by his wife, AR
mena Persons, who with their four
little children was living on a farm
at Arkwright Centre, N. Y, while
he, soldier of Company F, 145th
regiment, New York volunteers in
the civil war, lay ill in regimental
hospital near Washington.
The apparent reason for the de-
lay in his receiving the letter is
that is was delivered to his broth
err, Lester G. Persons, who was i'll
in another regimental hospital and
whose initials were the same. They
did not meet for three months and
Lester c. must have forgotten the
letter. Lester G. Persons died re-
Gently and relatives found the let
ter among his papers.
Mrs. Armenia Persons, who wrote
the letter, died Is years ago and
like a voices from the dead comes
the loving, homelike letter which
has priceless value to Persons. She
wrote of her little Albert, Eva,
Mary and Alice, that they were
well and had been put to bed while
she wrote and she told of their
child talk of their soldier father
and of Baby Alice learning to
walk; of the compelled alterations
and repairs on the house, planned

PIANO SALE
BRINGS CROWDS

A constant crowd Of piano buy
ers have been taxing our sales
force to the limit since last Friday
morning, and the continued sue
cess of our consolidation clearance
sale has made it necessary to pro-
vide extra teams to deliver the
pianos sold.
Such a demonstration OF piano
selling is a thing unknown at any
other piano store in Spokane. They
take place at our store whenever
we advertise special values, be-
cause the people simply can't resist
the bargains that they know from
the experience of their friends and
neighbors will be there.
We can't take the time to go into
detail again regarding this sale,
but will only say that it is of much
importance to us that We reduce
our stock greatly before final con-
solidation, and it is necessary that
all odd styles and discontinued
lines be disposed of.
That's the whole story Of why
we are selling new pianos at reduc-
tons of $50 to $40; dozens or
styles and world-famous makes.
Secondhand and slightly used
pianos as low as SITS, including
some as good as new and all stand
ard makes.
Terms as low as SIS down and
Sc a month.

world-a yellow husband. A few
months ago in this city Mitchell
saw her again. He was introduced,
found that the husband had died
and promptly married the Nippon

When the affair was made public
an effort was made to interview
Mitchell but he refused to be inter
viewed. He didn't see where his
marriage to brown woman was
anybody's business but his own.
Up on the second floor Mrs. Sam
was busy welding broom and she
also refused to talk for the very
simple reason that she couldn't
make herself understood. She Just
grunted and kept on sweeping out
the hall.
Mitchell was logger, working
along the waterfront here until he
met the Japanese widow. Now he
has forsaken his calling and appar-

new home.

to take action. /
The possibility of the council
buying and building a municipality
owned and controlled market-the
only logical solution of the prob
lem in the end-was not consid-
cred, as the councilmen seems to
be of the impression that there are
too many other demands pressing
on the city at this time to invest
the required capital. A city owned
market such as Horton proposes
could be had, ground included, for
$4,000. =

This plan was also endorsed by
the 100000 club, the president of
which, c. Herbert Moore, ex-mayor,
has been a consistent advocate of
a city market for years.
Attorney w. s. Dawson present
ed the novel idea of building
market by placing a deck under the
Monroe street bridge.
City Commissioner Mudgett filed
a report, which said that the city
will need some of the ground plan
ned to be covered by the Schwartz
Bros plan, but Mr.. Schwartz said
that there still remained enough
ground for the market and the city,
too.
There was not much discussion
of the question by the councilmen,
who seemed more intent on listen
ing than expressing their views.
Gray said that the North Side prop
osition looked fair to him. the only
question being the one of location.
Gardeners and producers he had
talked with all favored the Second
avenue site.
Councilman Lambert said that
while he favored the Horton loca-
ton he was opposed to monopoly
for a market at either place. At his
suggestion the consideration of the
market was delayed one week until
Horton could appear before the
council and say in writing what
concessions he would grant as to
the regulation of the market.
Schaefer suggested that in the
meantime the cost of erecting an
awning along Second and ON Ste
vens be inquired into.

HE RAN AWAY WITH HIS SWEETHEART;

CLING YOUNG ARTIST WHO

ING,

SAN FRANCISCO, March 30.-He
ran away with his sweetheart. They
called him a thief and clapped him
into a cell.
That was because his sweetheart
was a $4,000 painting. He fell in
love with the masterpiece and be-
cause he couldn't have it close to
him any other way, he ran away
with it.
Samuel Kunze is his name. He
was just poor artist, eking out a
miserable existence with his brush.
One day while wandering about
museum he came upon a painting
by Jean Francois Millet. To see,
for him, was to love. Day after day
he sat enraptured before the can
vas. oblivious to all around him.
When the Museum opened in the
morning he was waiting at the door
and when it closed at night he was
the last to leave. At last came a
stormy day when the museum was
deserted. The artist, sitting before
the Millet. was hungry and discour-
aged. He had been able to work
only between trips to the huseum.
If only he could work with his in
spiration close to him!
He could! He loved the Millet.
Why not take it?
Three days later detective
opened the door of Kunze's little
attic room and found the young art

study of the missing painting. It
was not until the hand of the law
was upon his shoulder that the art
list was aroused from his reverie.
He started to his feet, despair writ
ten on every sensitive line of his
young face.
"You have come for my Millet!"
he cried. Take It. I don't care
now what you do with meH
So they took him to prison.

The future can hold for him little
more of hardship than has already
been his portion. He was IS when
he came to America from Dresden
eight years ago. without money
or friends. those eight years have
formed one long story of a bitter
struggle for an education in art.

he had nothing to cat at all, and

Theatrical
"A MANS A MAN."

"a Mans a Man." the new stellar
vehicle in which Henry B. Harris
will present Robert Edeson on Sun
day night at the Auditorium, will
inaroduce that popular young ora
tor as a brand new type of stage
hero. Instead of representing a
sturdy and fearless youth sur
mounting numerous difficulties in
order to win a conventional stage
heroine, as he has done in the
past, Mr.. Edeson, in "a. Mans
Man" is seen in the far more
thrilling dramatic situation of a
man fighting desperately to regain
the love of his own wife and at the
same time shield from injustice the
wife of a man he bitterly opposes.
