The Tennter Won.

When the late Baron Nordenskjo1d was at CeyIon on the way home from his journey along the northern coast of Siberia he received q telegram from the Russian government asking him
 whether he would accept from ths czar certain decoration as an appre. ciation of his services to Russia. Foe many days the famous explorer WAY cred. as he was a member of Bi3:. eterne Bjornson's Anti-decoration club, whose members were solemnly pledged never to accept any decoration from anybody. NordenskjoId, however, could not resist he'temptation, so he replied to the telegram in tho affirmative. It is not hard to ina zine his disappoint- ment when, upon reaching home, a friend of his. high official, told him the following: ''The Russian govern ment was we'll aware of your antago- nistic views in regard to decorations and had. therefore, placed in readiness 30O,000 rubles to be paid you in the event of your refusing to accept the insignia. but before paying that sum they wanted to try your firmness. Rus sia is certainly grateful to you for your failure to live up to your pledge.''

 Elkins, w. Va, Sept. 22.-So far from seriously i'll as has been report ed, Senator S, B. Elkins is recovering from a slight attack of malaria, which, while preventing him from giving any attention to public affairs, has not prevented him from moving around the house.

Coma For Gnnd-

Some folks fn foreign lands have their own way of determining whether their relatives who have migrated to this land of ours have become hope lessly Americap pized. One old lady in Gerpnany reached her conclusion in a way that can be appreciated only by those who know the type of the Ger man butter dish. deep as bowl, and the German reverence therefor. Last week her. rauddaughter ip New York received this sad lament:
 You will never come back You are lost to us. Hans Ca cousin) arrived here from New York on Monday and reports that you have even given up our deep German butter dishes and are using those shallow little plates that Americans ike."-New York Times

ey cry iota Of protection due New
England. Mr.. Meyer to the contrary
notwithstanding!
If the site at present owned by the
government here Is ever abandoned
and disposed of to individuals or a
corporation, the United States will
suffer an essential sacrifice of two
million dollars estimated values in i'm
provements alone, to say nothing Of
the lands involved. The eighteen
hundred acres of reservations are
now occupied by squatters to about
the same number, who own their own
personal property on the reservations,
and this exigency would present
troublesome though not lnsurmounta-
Bile situation Also, if the property
were disposed Of in this way it is
doubtful whether the government
would ever be able to secure it again,
If such a course should later be
deemed advisable. If the yard should
be turned over to some othey federal
it would in no wise be a
saving or retrenchment, but merely
transfer Of expenses, and would
unavoidably mean additional ex-
penses In making the necessary
changes.
This is about the status Of the case
as it appears to me, though ], acknowl-
edge myself as deficient III that splen-
did and imposing perspicacity which
convinces the secretary Of the navy
that all of the yards of the south
should be closed and all Of those in
New England kept open.
Pensacola hopes that you will be
able, as its direct representative in
congress, to. do vigorous and effec-
tive work in the premises. It would
be presumptuous in me to suggest to
you how the flght for retention should
best be waged; but do believe that
you and the other southern members
will be able to discover some method
for circumventing what appears to be
one of the rankest examples Of Sec
tionalism on record in our political
history. You will find no lack of aid
from this city at any moment it may
be desired.
Believe me,
Yours very truly,
RUFUS JONES.
