Spence Dabney.

During the early part of the eighties
there appeared at Albany, KY, an old
man who seemed to have passed his
three score and ten. Though bowed
with the weight of years, he was still
man of striking appearance, and would
have attracted attention in crowd OF
several hundred men. Large and well
proportional, with an enormous head
that claimed but little trimmings and
that around the border. With none of
that self-important, bigl and little U
manner. He was mild and modest as
maiden-not loud or vulgar-he possess
ed that old-fashioned, winning polite
ness devoid of effort or affectation,
like gray-haired drummer we wot of
who passes our way, whose manner
captivates on first sight After the
lapse of many years he had returned to
the old stamping ground to finish the
battle of life where he had begun it
nearly half century before. He had
been journeyman saddler the greater
part of his life-had drifted to Cincin
natl, where he was one of the first
drummers sent out from that city, also
filled some minor city Office which he
afterwards claimed he filled with much
dignity and very little ability. He had
rented small room on the South side
of the town, and was running sadlery
on a small scale. After hearing that
Spence Dabney was in town, l was
anxious to see the man of whom l had
heard so much-was introduced to HIM
as Tom Jones. the dentist, and of
courseh had cleared" of me as skill
full tooth carpenter, and knew that l
ought to have a spring seated gentle
mans saddle of the kind he was max
ing, and in a persuasive manner gave a
lecture on their superior qualities. l
had heard and read Dabney's yarns
written for the Cincinnati Enquirer by
Senator Bradley, and in the Courier
Journal by Savoyard, both of whom
claimed that Spence Dabney was the
finest story teller they had ever known.
He remarked that Tom seemed to be a
favorite name with the Jones families,
to which replied that my friend, Billy
Winfrey said they named all their boys
Tom He then said the first Tom Jones

Few Parks in Germany.

WASHINGTON. Sept. IA re-
port by Vice Consul General
William Dawson, Jr, at Frankfurt
Germany, on amusement devices in the
Fatherland, shows to what an amazing
ly small extent the German public pat
ranizes this sort of enterprise.
Frankfurt, with its 100000 inhabit-
ants, has no permanent amusement
park. A vacant lot is used by travelling
concerns who visit there from time to
time,s bringing merry go-rounds and
similar devices. During fair times, .
that is Easter time and the early fall.
these travelling amusements pitch tents
near the railway station and usually
stay two weeks at a time.
There are only two permanent parks
in Germany, the famous Lima park"
In Berlin, and another at Cologne The
fact that amusement parks do not
thrive in Germany may be attributed in
a slight degree to the large number of
fetes and fairs held every year. Tray
cling ry-go-rounds, roller coasters
and other attractions visit the different
cities and towns while the fetes and
fairs are in progress

WARD QUITS THE COLONEL.

Few of the really strong and influ-
Roosevelt into the new party. Some of
his strongest and most powerful sup
porters drew the line ut boiling the
republican party, says the Wallace
Press. One of the most notable of
these is William l.. Ward of New York.
formerly republican national commit
teeman from that state Mr.. Ward was
one of the original Roosevelt men, and
as member of the national committee
used every effort to create sentiment
in the national committee favorable to
the colonels candidacy at the meeting
of the committee in Washington last
December. He kept up his fight for
Roosevelt until the end of the Chicago
convention. Now he is for Taft.
Roosevelt and his friends worked hard
to induce Ward to join the third party,
and in order to effectually put an end
to these efforts Mr. Ward the other
day issued a statement, from which the
following extract is taken:
you cannot make me believe that
there is not strength enough and vi
tally enough in the republican party
to reform any abuse and to give all
the progress that the citizens are ra-
tionally entitled to. No greater rec
ord of progress has been made bv any
nation since the birth of the world
than the progress that has been made
under the republican party from 1861
to the present time. If we are suf-
fering from anything in this country
today we are suffering from pros
perity.
And yet we are told that we want
more progress: that we cannot get it
in either of the old parties. and that
we have to go out and start a rev
party. | want to know whether any
body really believes that YOU can
gather body of men together in a
new party with as little foundation as
this new party has and expect 20 get
a greater proportion of earnest, hon
est men than exists in the republican
party today. That is absolutely i'm
possible"

The western mind cannot conceive
the mental processes of the Japanese
who Stay themselves as tribute OF
love and respect to a dead emperor
1t is almost impossible to our minds
to understand the emotion which
causes relative to suicide after
the death of a loved one. In Japan
this feeling is not only manifest upon
an emperor's death, but so simple a
matter as the announcement that the
emperor regrets" some international
episode is sufficient to cause numbers
of the people to disembowel them
selves as a manifestation of their grief
over his regret" 1t is mystery to
the western mind, but it is a mystery
that makes the Japanese a formidable

RESCUED TELL OF
PIRATES ATTACK
CREW OF SHIP PUT ADRIFvT In
SMALL BOATS BY GATORS
OF VESSEL.

NEW YORK Special.-When the
steamer Allcmania arrived i'm port on
Monday thrilling story of shipwrecx
and attack 10y pirates was told by
thirteen sailors of the Italian bark
Genee, on board the Allemania. and
rescued by the latter boat when in
desperate plight at Inagua, the Ba-
hamas.
According to the story told by the
rescued sailors, the Genee set out
from Inagua on May 10th, bound for
MarseilleS. with a costly cargo of hard
wood, and when a short distance out
from port had encountered a severe
storm which carried them out of
their course and threatened to send
them to the bottom.
After working the pumps for several
days, the crew was on the point of
DESERVING the bark and taking to the
boats, when a number of small sail
boats came alongside, and the Occu-
pants Of these boats, numbering more
than 100, armed with guns and re-
Volvers, boarded the Genee ana or
dered the crew to surrender. An at
tempt was made by the crew to Scut-
tie the Genee. and a fight ensued in
which the defenders were badly
wOrSted. They were then ordered into
the small boats without water or pro-
visions.
After rowing aimlessly for two days.
the crew Of the Genee made land at
one Of the smaller Bahamas and hoist
ed a signal of distress. which was seen
| by the lookout on the steamer Allie
, mania. which rescued them. nearly
dead from exposure and hunger 4
British revenue cutter was dispatched
in pursuit of the pirates. No report
of capture had been received by the
Allemania up to the time of leaving
Inagua for New York city.
All of the members OF the crew of
the Genee were on board the Allema-
MIA when she arrived here Monday
except the captain, Joseph Capello,
and the first mate, who remained at
the Bahamas to prosecute the search
for the pirates. The United States
Government will be asked TO coop
crate with the British authorities in
putting a stop to the activity OF the
pirates in Bahama waters.
Some months ago the steamer
Prince Joachim, plying between the
West Indies and New York. went
aground al about the same point where
the crew of the Genee was ship
wrecked, and was boarded by pirates.
