MONUMENT TO JOHN W. DANIEL

MONUMENT TO JOHN w. DANIEL
It will crafty thousands OF people
throughput Virginia to know that tl'e
movement to erect monument 10 Tue
late Senator John w. Daniel has
reached point where the success o.
the scheme may be set down IS a
certainty.
The Lynchburg News announced
Yesterday that more than S6'ooo al
ready had been pledged Tor the me-
mortal, although no effort at puol'c
solicitation up to that time had been put
forth.
Beginning today, however, the sub
scription list will be thrown open -
the public.
Randolph Harrison, prominent
member Of the Lynchburg bar, VIII
roce;ve such contributions as come IN;
bnt the maximum subscription mas
been fixed at 800. Any lesser sum-
M matter how small, will be gratefully
received.
It is planned to spend slO'ooo 'or
the monument, which will be set UP IN
the Hill City, where Senator Danlel 50
long resided. Iii addition to TINS sum
Lynchburg will furnish site ana pay
for the base of the memorial.
The eminent Virginia sculptor or
Moses Ezekiel, himself an ex-Cohleo-
crate soldier, has consented to make
the figure, so no fears as to the eSce',
,ence OF the bronze presentuent neeu
be entertained.
1t is probable that the Lyncho"rs
committee will have but few weeks 70
wa;t before it finds itself equipped with
all necessary funds, for John W.
Daniel still remains one OF the idols OF
the Virginia people and the plan 10
honor his memory everywhere meets
popular approval.

NEED OF PATROL WAGON.

The need OF patrol wagon in Alex
ondria il often made apparent, especi-
allv on Saturday nights, when so many
neonle are on the streets. Last Satur-
day night the police arrested q negro
charged with larceny at the extreme
end OF King street, and, as IS always
the case. large crowd gathered I'M
mediately. Nest OF the gathering was
composed OF boys, and the crowd IN
creased every second. The officers who
made the arrest when they reached the
alley between Royal and Fairfax streets
entered it with their prisoner IN otaer
20 get away from the multitude. A
large section OF the city was left un-
puarded for at least hall an hour. HAD
\ patrol wagon been in commission the
officer who made the arrest could nave
summoned any bystander to call the
station house over the telephone and
thew wonld have had no occasion 10
leave their beat.

SHOT RY A WOMAN.

In answer to 4 telephone call last
night, DR.. Kempf, OF Bellevue Hos
pitaI, New York, hurried to East
Fou .teenth street and Avenue A with
the ambulance and found two men
lying on the pavement. No policemen
we're in sight. He rushed them back
to the hospital. One said he was James
Dibbia, 81 years old, printer by day
and musician by night. He was
shot in the neck and seriously hurt.
The other man was hit in the abdomen
and was unconscious. Dibbia said he
knew the other man as Favernoe. The
doctor could see no hope for his re
coycry. 10 few minutes Carlelo Gao
ciati, IS years old, walked in with a
bullet wound in his neck.
Dibbia said that he aud his friend
we're going home, wheu woman
stepped out Of the darkness and began
shooting. Patrolman Doultn and
Bolmer beard the shots and saw a
woman dart into door. They follow
ed her to the roof, where they found
her behind water tank, with hstpin
in each hand. Overpowered, she said
she had been living with Antonio Fa-
vernoe for eight months, and few
days ago heard that he had three other
wives and several children.
The woman was taken to the hos
pital for identification. She said that
she intended to kill Fayernoe. The
other men interfered and got some OF
the shots, She was then LOCKED up.

THE CzAstsA,s CnNnITius.

Th, Imperial yacht Standard has
taken the car Of Russia and his
family to Bjorkeford. The start was
made earlier than usual because of the
condition or the czarina's health, Which
is again prime factor 10 the move
ments .of the court. The conditions at
Pcterbof We're unfavorable Tor her.
During the visit Of the American
fleet 10 Cronstadt the czarina had
several attacks Of nervous affection
which left her standing siockstill and
powerless to move. These attacks
came on while she was in the con-
sarvatorics or gardens at Peterhof aud
she would have to call for chair and
be carried back to the palace.
The present lime is additionally an
anxious one for the czar because his
friend and kinsman, King Nicholas Of
Montenegro, is sending former
Preuier Myuschkovitch on personal
and urgent mission to the Russian
capital. The former minister has been
lcputizcd to ask Russia to guarantee
Montenegro's rear against the military
threats of Austria while the Monte
negrins continue TO help the A!banians
against the Turkish government.
1t is barely month since the car is
sued minatory warning to Turkey to
1T Montenegro alone. His note so
far from doing good only provoked
Austria to challenge him publicly by
declaring that she would be responsible
for the maintenance OF order in Mace
donia.
Prime Minister Stolypin and Foreign
Minister Sazont if are absen: from st.
Petersburg at present aud NJ. Myusch
kovitch will find 4 friendly atmosphere.

They are apparently suffering from
Hobsonism, and although they did not

to believe conflict between the United

eyitable. and that the war cloud would
soon spread over the Pacific ocean.
Most people have ceased to look upon
such predictions seriously.

CHAPTER XIII.
An Old Man of the Sea.


"Oh, Mr.. Orme, you are the man
most wished to see." The minister's
voice carried a note of unrestrained
eagerness. He extended his hand.
Orme accepted the salutation, mus
tering the appearance of casual meet
ing; he must keep Alcatrante out of
the building.
Il was sorry that could not be at
your apartment this morning contin-
ued Alcatrante, and l hope you did
not wait too long"
"Oh, no" replied Orme. Il waited
for little while, but concluded that
something had called you away. Has
Senior Poritol recovered from his anxi.
ety."
why, no." said Alcatrante. But the
course of events has changed" He
linked his arm in Orme's and walked
along with him toward the center of
the city. "You see," he went on, my
young friend Poritol overestimated the
Importance of that marked bill. 1t did
give the clue to the hiding place of
certain papers which were of great
valuesto him. What he failed to realize
was that the papers could be of little
importance to others. And yet, so per-
turbed is he that he has asked me to
offer a considerable reward for the re-
covery of these papers"
'Indeed?"
Yes" Alcatrante sent a slanting
glance at Orme. 1.-THE sum is ridicu-
lousy large, but he insists on offering
one thousand dollars"
quite a sum-" said Orme calmly.
He was interested in the minister's in
directions.
CAS- for the events of last night
continued Alcatrante, stopping short,
with a significant glance.
''Well?" said Orme indifferently.

were already gone when they went to
look for them. Poritol is really very
anxious"
Doubtless" added Orme.
Perhaps" added Alcatrante, after a
short wait, he might even go as high
as two thousand"
Indeed? Then there will surely be
many answers to his advertisement"
''Oh, he will not advertise" Alca
trante laughed. Already he knows
where the papers are. While waiting
for the clue of the bill, he discovered
what others had already availed them
selves of it."
"'That is curious" Orme smiled
How did he discover that?"
In roundabout way. 1 won't take
time for the story"
They walked along in silence for a
little distance. Orme was figuring on
an escape, for the minister's clutch on
his arm was like that of a drowning
mans. Finally he sought the simplest
means of getting away. 81 have an en-
gagement," he said. 'I shall have to
leave you, here. Thank you for walk
ing with me thus far" He disengaged
his arm.
my dear Mr. Orme," said Alca-
trante, why should we beat around
the bush?"
WHY, indeed?" said Orme
"Poritol knows that his papers are
in your possession. Speaking for him
offer you five thousand"
''Why do you drag Poritol into this ??
said Orme. You know that he has
