SAYS FATHER SOLD HER
St, townsville Girl Makes As
tonishing Charge Against
Parent

ST.. TOWNSVILLE, July 25.-The
case of Angeles Pedros and Rosie Ste
Vens, who were arrested in Albany
Monday by Chief of Police Failing, on
the charge of stealing horse and
wagon, the charge being preferred by
Dominic Stevens, the father of the
girl, came up here yesterday, the evil
dence showing that the property had
been returned. Justice MacMahon,
before whom the case was heard, dis
missed It. Miss Stevens then enter
ed complaint against her father,
which, if warranted by facts, certainly
reveals a deplorable condition of af-
fairs. The allegations as set forth are
that the girl, who is but II years old,
was sold two years ago by her father,
to an individual named Butcher, for
5000. Butcher is now prisoner in
Pennsylvania, on a conviction of big
amy arising out of this case. The
girl further alleged that in 1911 her
father sold her to one SPAWN Of Cana
joharie, the consideration being a
horse, said to be valued at $50, prices
having dropped SIS per cent. The girl
left SPAWN and has now, of her own
choice, taken up with Pedros. Owing
to the clannish disposition of those in
terested, and their friends, and the
natural desire inherent in humanity to
keep such denominations quiet, on the
theory that sin exists, not by commits
sion, but by detection, the court was
obliged to dismiss the case. 1t should
be taken up by the district attorney
and prosecuted to a finish.

MANAGER BELL
AT SAN CARLOS

Arrival of p. J. Bell, manager of
the San Carlos sugar central, is noted
in the Iloilo Enterprise of June 80. He
is described as not a talkatiVe man,
nor one of those sullen, close-lipped
men, at once the dread and terror of
the newspaper correspondent, but
striking the observer as nothing more
imposing than a captain Of industry
who has done things so often that 1t
has become a habit Mr.. Bell is re-
ferred to further as the man who
erected, at Adalene, La, the largest
sugar central in the world, and who
built four large centrals for the Jap
anese in Formosa. The report goes
on to say:
MIR. Bell will go over to San Carlos
Monday. accompanied by Mr.. Bord-
man, and steps will be taken imme-
diately to push the work Of cOnstruc-
ton. Contracts for the building, and
for installing the machinery, will be
let at once, and railroads leading to
the various plantations to be included
in the centrals coterie Of cane sup
pliers, will be laid. The new company
will not buy land, nor will it assist
any corporation in securing it. Con
trary to report, the new company is
not affiliated with, nor in any way con
nected with the Sugar Trust. 1t has
always run independently of that or
gahization, and always will. The OBJ
ject of the company will be to develop
the farms in the district where lo-
Gated, and to make a grade Of sugar
that will find a ready acceptance in
the markets of the world, irrespective
of supply and demand"

Fourteen million dollars was spent

It is not nearly SO large AZ It should

LORE ABOUT ROSE
Nightingale sings His Frsnzisd Love
for that Flower and Dies
Beneath Rosebush. t5

Persian legendary lore tells sumo
lanciful stories about the rose which
have great poetic charm. For example,
the poet Altar wrote THE Book Of the
Nightingale" telling how all the other
birds appeared in anger before the
throne of Solomon, asking him to de-
stroy the nightingale, which would not
allow them to rest by night, but pour
ed forth it's lays when peaceful ST.
lence should rein all over the earth.
After prolonged argument the bird was
acquitted, for it explained with such
pathos that it's untimely melody could
not be restrained because Of its fren-
zied love for the rose, a passion so
hopeless and undying that 1T could
never be made voiceless. Another
Persian belief is that nightfngales al
ways die beneath rose bushes, stupe-
fled by the scent. jamie, a Persian
poet, wrote of how "the first rose APP
peared in Gulistan at the time the
flowers demanded a new sovereign
from Allah, because the drowsy lotus
would slumber at night. At first the
maiden queen blossom was shown
white, and encircled with a protecting
guard of thorns, but the poor night
gale fell into such an ecstasy of love
over her charms, and SO ~recklessly
pressed his lovelorn heart against
those cruel thorns, that his blood. SO
far as it could trickle into the flowers
bosom, dyed it crimson"
Another fancy states that the Per.
fume of the rose was gained from a
cup Of nectar thrown " it by the
little god Cupid, while its thorns were
those stings of bees used by him
as arrows in his wrath at finding
some roses scentless after all his
trouble.
The beds of the Shahs of Persia in
ancient times were filled with rose
metals, which had to be often scattered
lest they become uncomfortable. This
must surely have been the origin of
the saying: HE would complain Of
a bed of roses" 1t was also claim
ed that q rose liquor would "by one
glassful make the sternest monarch
Der amid his palms."
The rose is emblematical Of Joy and
love, and was ~consecrated to Venus.
the goddess of beauty, from whose
path it was said to have first sprung.
Crimson roses, 'gemmed with dew.
drops" formed the GROWING garland
of the Romans youthful Comus. god
Of feasting, and the Turks believed II
absolutely wicked to step on a rose
petal or leave it lying on the ground

District Attorney Wise Given
Until Today to DiSprove Argu-
mentS of Defendants Counsel
in the Case.

IBy Morning journal Special Leased wire.
New York. March 25.--The pros
pect that Judge Hand of the United
states district court would instruct the
jury to acquit John IT,. Parsons. Wash
ington -. Thomas and other official Il
of the American Sugar Refining Com
pany, on trial for conspiracy. was In
view today when counsel for the de
PENDANTS finished arguments on mo-
ton To dismiss the indictments.
Judge Hand, who reserved decision
on the motion until tomorrow, several
times remarked during the argument
which was conducted for the defense
by Delaney Nicoll and James II.
Beck. that he agreed with points they
raised and announced that unless the
district attorney could convince him
otherwise he would instruct the jury
to bring in verdict of not guilty.
This announcement was made in
connection with a point raised by Mr..
Beck In discussing the sl.250. 900 loan
made to Adolph Segal promoter Of
the Pennsylvania Sugar Refining
COMPANY through which II is alleged

tn the American Sugar Refining

In order to safeguard their collat-
csal and protect themselves from haV-

Hand. ''and unless AIR. Wise can 9TH

District Attorney Wise characterizej
the contention Of the def ense as absurd
