WOOL GROWERS
TO MEET TODAY
WOOL TARIFF WILL BE FREELY
DISCUSSED.
Industry Greatly Hampcred by Demo
cratic Legislation. Says President
Samuel c. Gist.

The annual meeting OF the Tri-State
Wool Growers association will be
opened in the assembly room OF the
Wheeling Board of Trade this morn
ing and adjourn tomorrow afternoon.
The sessions will be presided over by
Samuel c. Gist, OF Brooke county. who
is president of the association. and II
is expected that the tri-state region
will be well represented.
Perhaps the most absorbing topic
10 be discussed by the wool growers
will be the wool tariff. and II is ex-
pected hat strong resolutions will be
passed. When President Gist was in
~terrogated by an -ntelligencer re-
porter last evening as TO his views on
the tariff. he carefully smoothed down
his venerable merino beard and said:
The attitude Of the Democrats in
reducing the tariff on wool has had
the certain tendency TO almost Iuin
the industry. Sheep are OF less value
TO the breeder than in years. which /
believe accounts for the lone sheep
leaving the farm the other day and
wandering into Wheeling. an account
OF which ] read I'm the Intelligencer."
Mr.. Gist declares that IL is high
time that sheep breeders all over the
country take active srand against the
reduction In the tariff. and he is OF
he opinion that this will be done.

CHAPTER II.

Captain MurreII Asks Questions.
in the deep peace that rested like
a benediction on the pine-clad slopes
of Scratch Hill the boy Hannibal fol
lowed at Yancy's heels as that gen
tleman pursued the not arduous
rounds of temperate industry which
made up his daily life,
The Barony had been offered for
sale and bought in by Crenshaw for
eleven thousand dollars, this being
the amount of his claim. Some six
months later he sold the plantation
for fifteen thousand dollars to Ma
thaniel Ferris, of Currituck county.
There's money in the Cid place,
Bob, at that figure" CTenshaw told
Yancy.
"Bladen's got an answer from them
South Carolina Quintards. and they
don't know nothing about the boy,
added Crenshaw. $50 you can rest
easy, Bob, they amt going to want
him"
We'll, sir, that surely is a passel OF
comfort to me-" said Yancy.
Just beyond the Barony, which was
midway between Balaam's and the
Hill, down the long stretch of sandy
road he saw two mounted figures.
then, as they drew nearer he caught
the flutter Of skirts and recognized
one of the horsewomen. 1t was Mrs.
Ferris. wife of the Barony's new own
er. She reined in her horse abreast
of his cart.
Aren't you Mr.. Yancy?" she asked.
81 am Mrs. Ferris, and l am very
pleased to make your acquaintance" !"
The same here" murmured Yancy
with winning civiltty
Mrs. Ferris companion leaned for
ward, her face averted, and stroked
her horses neck with gloved hand.
This is my friend, Miss Betty Nal
roy
Glad to know you, ma'am." said
Yancy.
Miss Malroy faced hin, smi!ing.
She was quite radiant with youth and
beauty.
I'VE are just returning from Scratch

CHAPTER M.
Trouble at Scratch Hin,


Captain Murrell had established
himself at Balaam's Cross Roads. He
was supposed to be Interested in the
purchase Of plantation, and in com.
pany with Crenshaw visited the nu.
merous tracts of land which the mer.
chant owned.
The Barony would have suited
had just returned from an excursion
into the country and were seated in
the lawyers office.
You say your father was a friend
of the old generars?" said Bladen.
Years ago, in the north-yes," an.
swered MurreIl.
Murrel regarded the lawyer in 81.
lence for a moment out of his deeply
sunk eyes.
Too bad about the boy" he said
at length slowly.
How do you mean, Captain ?"
asked Bladen.
Il mean it's a pity he has no one
except Yancy to look after him." said
Murrell; but Bladen showed no in
terest and Murrell went on: HAS
Yancy any legal claim on the boyy'
mo, certainly not; the boy was
merely left with Yancy because Cren-
shaw didn't know what else to do
with him"
Get possession of him, and If I
don't buy land here I'll take him west
with me-" said Murrell quietly. Il
am willing to spend five hundred dol.
lars on this if necessary"
! ''Pll have to think your PROPOSE.
tion over" said Bladen.
The immediate result of this con-
yersation was that within twenty-four
hours a man driving two horses
hitched to a light buggy arrived at
Scratch Hill in quest OF Bob Yancy,
whom he found at dinner and to
whom he delivered a letter. Mr..
Yancy was profoundly impressed by
the attention, for holding the letter
at arms length, he said:
We'll, sir, I've lived nigh on to
forty years, but l never got a piece
of writing befo'-never, sir. People
if they was close by. spoke to me, ii
at a distance they holiered, but none
OF 'em ever wrote"
Whats your answer?" demanded
the stranger.
You tell him I'll be monstrous
glad to talk it over with him any time
he fancies to come out here"

PARIS TAKES UP NEW COLORs
Jade and MaIachite Green Are the
Latest to Find Favor in the Gay
French Capital.
JULIA BoTToMLEY.

While Paris has almost exhausted
its favoritism for red, which has been
going on since last summer, 1t has
just begun it's enthusiasm for jade

Both of these are lovely, bold tones

Simple Reason Why the Western
Mind Is Slow to Grasp Nomen-
cIature of Persian Officials.

Chinese and Arab names have late
ly been under discussion. Now Per
sian names are as much in our news
papers. The trouble with Persians.
however, at any rate with all who
get into the papers, is that they do not
call themselves either by their names
or surnames, but ouly by titles. What.
for instance, is Sardar Assad, by
which the valiant chief of the Bakh-
tiaris Is known to all newspaper read
ers? 1t is not a name at all. but a
title. The real name of the gentle
man is Ali Ghui, and SO, indeed. while
Minister of the Interior. he used to
sign all official papers. But to the
world at large he is only known as
Sardar Assad, which means a lion.
The same applies to other Persians
who are well known to the European
public The present Regent is Nasr-ul-

His tone was one of surprise.

No, madam; he was my fathers

His manner was adroit and plausible.

"Murrell-Captain MurreIl. Thank
you; should like to see the old
place. l should highly value the priv
Iege," then his eyes rested on Miss
Malroy.
Betty, let me present Captain Muir
rell."
The captain bowed, giving her q
glance of bold admiration.
By this time the children had strag-
gled off into the pine woods as 81
lently as they had assembled; only
Yancy and Hannibal remained. Mrs
Ferris turned to the former.
IF you will close the cabin door.
Mr. Yancy, everything will be ready
for next Sunday" she said, and moved
toward the horses, followed by Muir
rell. Betty Malroy fingered for a mo-
ment at HannibaPs side.
"Good-by, little boy; you must ask
your Uncle Bob to bring you up to
the big house to see me-" and stoop-
ing she kissed him. "Good-by, Mr.

Mr. Crenshaw took up the narrative.
When morning come she was

They passed from room to room Sc
curing doors and windows, and at
last stepped out upon the back porch.
"Hullo!" said Yancy, pointing.
