Berlin, Aug. 29.-The Kaiserin
has abaQdoned all engagements for
the coming season, and according to
all accounts is in a very delicate state
Of health. So precarious is her con-
dition that the Crown Princess Ce-
celia has abruptly closed her seclu-
sion at Danzig in order that she may
be in Berlin and Potsdam to take
the empress's place al court func-
tons.

THE VANISHING SEA cow.
A Marine Curiosity That Is Rapidly
Nearing Extinction.


One OF the largest fish that has in
habited the waters of the gulf of Mex
leo and the south Atlantic coast of
this country and which is almost eX-
tinct is known as the manatee. II was
found in great numbers n century ago.
and even few years back this crea-
ture was quite plentiful! in certain To-
caities.
1t is very gentle for large fish and
easily captured in heavy nets, which
are usually stretched across the mouths
of rivers emptying into the south At
lantic or the gulf of Mexico. The flesh
is very delicious and brings n high
price, having a strong resemblance 10
the very finest veal. The skeleton is
valued at SlC0. and the skin if removed
properly and cared for by those who
understand its properties will bring a
like amount.
This fish is often from ten to twelve
fleet in length and weighs about 1000
pounds. 1t is so gentle il will not
strike the light craft that happens TO
be near il. and when captured it shows
no resistance whatever
1t is safe TO say that in the next
quarter of q century this creature will
become extinct unless specimens are
preserved simply to prevent the com
plete loss of one of our most wonder
full sea creatures.
1t lives wholly on salt water vegeta
ton and growths found in the mouths
of the rivers emptying into the sea-

seemed to bloom for the masters
praise and touch, each seemed to
rival the other in recalling a time
long gone.
Into that long-gone time Master
George had entered. all unwilling. It
was the roses-tEey had brought
lights CT tenderness back into his
eyes; helped him to forget the broken
vase; the mad ride to Beverly and
the bitter aftermath.
Now in their midst he was stroll
Ing with Barbara. These very paths
echoed her songs; Barbara in white
muslins, buoyant and happy; Bar
baTa, with rose in her hair.
One morning Master George tar
ried long beside the roses. His face
was drawn and ashen, for when he
had reached for a tempting bud near
the wall his eye caught the white OF
curtain that fiuEtered out of the
easement Of the red cottage.
Barbara's cottage? He looked in
tently, misbelieving the wondering
eyes. Yet there beside the open win
dow sat Nanny Chloe, red-coifed and
sad.
Master George opened his book,
but that could not hide the STOPPING
figure OF the old co!ored woman; he
started TO read aloud, tut that could
not drown the grooming Of her mourn
full song.
Then the eyes in the garden sud
denly d.mmed and Master George
leaned hard upon his cane as he went
toward home.
In his room he sought from the
folds OF his wallet a rose long with
cred. Sam found him in the twilight
with the flower crushed in his hand.

morning. but when he reached the

FORCED TO DELAY
SCHOOL OPENING
Audubon Building on Hill Will
Not Be Ready at the APP
pointed Time.

Considerable dissatisfaction pre-
walls among members OF the school
board on account of the slow progress
that has been made on the new Audu-
bon school building on the hill. They
had expected TO have the building
ready not later than a week after the
regular time for the opening, but the
work has gone on so slowly that IT
will be two or three weeks yet before
the building can be used. Superinten-
dent II. B. Hayden, when asked what
disposition he expected TO make Of
the pupils of the Audubon district,
stated that they would be taken care
Of in the Horace Mann and Eugene
Field buildings until the work on the
new structure is completed.
Preparatory 10 the opening OF the
schools, superintendent Hayden has
called a meeting OF the principals Of
all the schools for Saturday morning
al o'clock IN his Office. Plans Of
organization will be discussed and
each teacher will be provided with a
map Of her district showing the new
boundary lines since the redistricting
The course Of study has been re-
written, and at the general meeting Of
all the teachers TO be held in the
high school assembly room Monday
morning at 9 O'Clock, each teacher
will be provided with copy Of il.
The course in moral instruction will
be continued, but II is probable a new
manual will be recommended for the
teachers desk

So things were different, indeed.
Although Mistress Runnell came to
live at the big house and often walk

PAPER MONEY.

1t Was First Issued by Count de Ten
dIla at AIhambra.
The Count de Tendilla. while besieg-
ed by the Moors in the fortress of AL
hambra. was destitute of gold and sill
yer wherewith to pay his soldiers, who
began to murmur. as they had not the
means of purchasing the uecessaries
of life from the people of the town.
''In this dilemma" says the historian.
what does this most sagaciouS com
mander? He takes number OF little
morsels of paper on which he inscribes
various sums, large and small, and
signs them with his own hand and
name. These did he give to the sol
diery in earnest of their pay. How
you will say, are soldiers to be paid
with scraps of paperT Even so, and
we'll said. roo, as will presently make
manifest for the good count issued Il
proclamation ordering the inhabitants
to take these morsels OF paper for the
full amount inscribed. promising 10 re-
deem them at a future time with gold
and silver. Thus by subtle and most
miraculous alchemy did this cavalier
turn worthless paper into precious gold
aud silver aud make his late impOver-
ished army abound In money"
The historian adds. The Count de
TendilIa redeemed bis promises like a
loyal knight. and this miracle. as it APP
peared in the eyes Of the worthy Aga
pida. is the first instance ON record Of
