Wyckoff, to meet Mrs. De Malinowski.
but since the name of the young moth
er did not appear on the passenger
list Mr., Wyckoff had great difficulty
in finding her. He sought the aid OF
Collector William Loeb, Jr., and met
no less than ten steamers due on the
same day as the Adriatic. or the next.
Mr.. Loeb. however, had seen to 1t that
no obstacles should stand In Mrs. De
Malinowski's way, and although Mr..

II have no doubt" Mrs. De Malin-

will continue. My husbands family
does not care about me. but they do
want him, and they are as rich as l
am poor. The upkeep of Mlynyszce
alone costs them between 100000
and $150,0o0 a year, and have no
reason to think that they will agree
either to let Caesar come back to me
or to let Leonard stay with me in
peace"
Mr.. Wyckoff received a letter not
long ago from De Malinowski in which
he begged his American friends not
to form an opinion OF the case until
his side had been heard. He did not
say. however. what that side was.

Chicago: The fight that has been
going on here for the last two months
for control of the telegraph business
between this city and the principal
cities OF Missouri, Nebraska, Indiana
and Kentucky has reached an acute
stage. The Telepost automatic tele-

has considerably the best Of 1t to-
date. as is shown by its acquisition
of the patronage of more than 800 of
the largest corporations, business
houses and individual users Of the
wire, who have heretofore used the
Morse system exclusively to the
points reached by the competing lines.
The latter estimate that the change
will save them thousands of dollars a
year. Computing It's profit on every Is
cent message at II cents, the Telepost
is in the unique position of being able
to provide service to telegraph users
from 40 to 100 per cent. cheaper than
its competitors, with their slower and
more expensive hand operating sys-

place. who now resides in Baltimore,
Md. He is 5Ssyears old. and has mar
ried Miss Josephine Conroy. seven
years his senior. She is the fourth
bride. and sister to his three other
wives, now deceased. Philkill declar-
ed after the ceremony. which was
performed by the Rev, s. C. Cutter,
that he felt like q boy of 10.
He was first married 40 years ago,
when he eloped with Miss Marie Con-
roy. He was greatly attached to all
four sisters. and it has been often
said that they were all in love with
him. His first wife was killed in an
accident about six years later. He
afterward married Miss Anna Conroy.
with whom he lived for q dozen years.
She died of heart disease while they
were enjoying trip to the Pacific
coast.
Mr.. Philkill remained single for
two years. declaring to his friends
that he would never marry. He did
not keep this resolution, however. as
he again fell in love when he came
here to visit the Conroy family, and
the graves of his wives. who are all
buried in the family plot.
Miss Lillian Conroy was the next
bride. He wooed and won her during
this visit and she accompanied him to
Baltimore as a bride. This proved
Philkill's longest venture in matri-
mony. as the couple lived together for
IS years. At the expiration of that
time Mrs. Philkill died of typhoid
fever. Mr.. Philkill remained single
two years, but Cupid possible believ,

Feed for Dairy Cows.

Milk producers who know 1t best
concede that alfalfa is an invalua-
BILE feed in the dairy, closely akin to
wheat bran in results, and usually
much less expensive. In the average
small town or city there is about one
COW for every ten or fifteen people.
Therefore, in town of one thousand

enty-five to one hundred COWS. If al
falfa will increase the quantity of
their milk and butter fat. giving a
