OF my music scholars who would not

The Mr.. Page she had alluded TO
had come into Lucia's life quite prom
inently Of late. He had charge OF a
school supported by the manufactur-
ing plants at the edge OF the town
The work was purely philanthroplc'
II was profound admiration for the
way in which he had won the interest
and love of his poor pupils, that had
caused Lucia herself to long to be OF
assistance in cooperating to raise the
social and educational status of the
forlorn little ones.
Lucia would never forget to her
dying day one golden afternoon when
she was strolling by the riverside
with Harold Page, discussing new
plans for the benefit of their mutual
work. Suddenly Harold had sprung
from her side. Then she saw that
little girl playing in a boat tied 10
the shore near the mill dam had fall'
en- into the water Just in time MI.
Page made a plunge that rescued the
imperiled child from sure death.
The little one was more frightened
than hurt. When Page carried her
to a grassy plot, Lucia sat down 70
care for the weeping child, and her
rescuer lowered near by to soothe her
with gentle words. "Oh, dear MT
Page! You was so good, so grand to
Jump In and get all wet and mussed
up, just for a bad, naughty little girl!
She was so grateful, so happy, that
she seized his hand. She drew II
close to that of Lucia, and kissed them
both, and held them there so close
together that Lucia blushed and Page
looked embarrassed. It awoke Lucia
to a quick comprehension OF the fact
that she had found her ideal at last
It nerved Mr.. Page to speak out what
had been in his heart for some time
Miss Forsythe," he said, as they
walked slowly homeward, anybody
would be pardoned for the common
belief that you are princess In dis
guise, and really l was led to believe
that you we're the great heiress they
said. But l have learned that your
work here is real soul labor. l have
something more in worldly wealth
than my humble but glad position here
would seem to indicate. Let me share
it with you"
And on such a dreamy, mellow eve
ming and with such earnest words
from such a man, Lucia Forsytne
could not say him nay.

FOUND HER IDEAL
Loss of Fortune and Social
Standing Brought Love and
Happiness.
Rx GEORGE ELMER coss.

Daniel Forsythe considered himself
one of the most fortunate men in the
world when he became partner with
Roger Bell. He was getting old, his
new business cares would be light,
and Bell was a money maker. Besides
that, young Denzil Bell and Lucia
Forsythe we're engaged.
1t was true that young Bell was by
no means the man the old business
veteran would generally have select
ed for a son-in-law. The scion OF the
Bells was idle, without ambition,
tickle and a spendthrift. AS to Lucia,
she had failed to find one ideal among
the fashionable young men with whom
she was brought in contact in the So
cial swim. She had arrived at mar
riageable age, however, and the princi-
pal anxiety of her father was to see
her settle down." as he expressed It,
She sighed a trifle, and then in her
great love for her father she decided
to make a sacrifice of herself.
Then, rudely, Unexpectedly, came
the darkest day in the life OF old Dan
lei Forsythe. With a crash the great
house of Bell, Forsythe & Co. went
down In ruin. All of the Forsythe for
tune was involved. The Bells, how
ever, were notorious for having ever
IAN anchor to windward." When the
creditors were settled with the Bells
few as high as ever. Mrs. Bell had
fortune of her own, and on that the
family could drift along very pleas
antly. The first thing shallow, mean
spirited Denzil Bell did was to break
the engagement with Lucia. She had
expected it, and was devoutly glad
that 1t had come about.
I'VE are paupers!" mourned her
father. And now the engagement is
broken. 1t crushes me to think OF
you, Lucia. had so counted on your
trip abroad to finish up your art and
music. Now"
Now, dear papa" cried Lucia, al
most joyously, Il am free to have my
own way, to really live, to be of some

LOOK TO RUSSIAN OIL FIELDS
Are Certain to Play an Important Fart
In Furnishing Power for
BattIeships.

In discussing the fact that the use
of oil instead of coal as fuel In the
English navy is under consideration
It is time Russia should pay serious
attention to this question. II England
is replacing its own cheap coal by the
more expensive foreign product, there
must be important advantages on the
side of naphtha, and in the future
Russian feet the part to be played by
this fuel will be most important one'
the Novoe Vremya says. Many mills
and factories have gone over 10
naphtha as fuel and the consumption
is increasing every year.
Russia owns immense oil fields ana
1t could be the chief supplier or the
world. The need of organization In
the business Is recognized by the
government and a number OF special
meetings have been held for discuss
ing the subject. New conditions have
been laid down for the exploitation OF
government territories, and the regu'
lations for Investigations have been
changed. Some territories known as
being rich in oil have been closed to
private enterprise, such as the APP
sheron peninsula near Baku, and Vari-
GUS islands OF the Caspian sea, as well
as some territories In the Transcas-
plan Ural and Gerghana districts, and
others in the north of Russia and ST.
IBERIA, amounting to millions OF acres.
The reason for this action Is the wish
to preserve these districts from ex-
haustion.
Another question concerns the mat
ter of investigation. 1t Is quite neces-
sary that the right of investigation be
granted on large scale, and not only
for comparatively small lots OF ground
where the investigation might not pay.
The government is aware Of this fact,
and, according to the new regulations
the plots of ground allotted for inves-
tigation are to be increased tenfold.
The most advisable system Is to
grant concessions that would induce
capitalists to place their money In
such undertakings. Under the new
regulations regarding the investigation
OF naphtha districts. the government
proposes to publish geological de-
scriptions OF the various districts.

10000 VICTIMS OF
THE BALKAN WAR
FORMER ALLIES ARE FIGHTING
EACH OTHER FIERcER THAN
THEW DID THE TURKS.
BuLGARs REPORT VICTORY
servians Have Lost Heavily and News
Of a Disaster Is Expected
From Belgrade.

London, England.-After ten days
of fighting more severe than anything
in the last Balkan war, little light
begins to break upon the obscure op-
erations. The Servians have lost
more men than in the whole previous
campaign, and semi-official statements
from Belgrade have the appearance
of preparing the public for news OF
a disaster.
Desperate lighting, with fuctuating
fortunes, is proceeding along the
Vardar and Bregalinitz river, appar-
emily to Bulgaria's advantage. News
has been received of the Bulgarian in
vasion of Servia through Belograd-
chky. The Bulgarians claim to have
defeated the Servians and captured
five guns and a quantity of other ma
terial, and by the occupation OF the
passes, to have opened the road to
Nish. Servia's most important fortified
town.
There is heavy fighting between the
Servians and Bulgarians south OF Is
tip and in the neighborhood OF heIch-
ana. About two hundred thousand
men are engaged and the losses on
both sides appear heavy.
Bulgaria's strategy appears to be 10
hold the Greeks in check, probably
with comparatively small forces, while
she deals with Servia.
Unconirmed reports credit the Bull
garians with victories near koprlll,
giving them the key to Usup' ana
with an outhanking movement from
the south of Lahynos Lake, which
would cut off the Greek retreat. sal
oniki dispatches report that the
Greeks have captured sixteen guns
at Peiran. Evidence of desperate
fighting is found in the arrival OF
5000 wounded at Saloniki.
A conservative estimate OF the XIII
ed or disabled in the fighting Is from
thirty to forty thousand. Thousands
of destitute refugees from the scene
of fighting are pouring into Salon
Xxi.

NOBLE INDIANS STILL LIVE
Homeless Tribe In the Floridas Re-
fuses to Accept Favcrs From the
Government.

It is difficult to realize that this
homeless fragment Of a people still
retains, after nearly two centuries OF
disaster, the traditional pride which
distinguished the caciques OF the
early Floridas, says the Christian Her
AID They ask nothing from the
United States government, would &C.
cept nothing, indeed unless tactfuuy
offered as their righteous due, and
through the men who have won their
confidence, or through others alignlng
with these. The gauntest straggler
who drops in at the mission store IN
times of bad hunting and deluged
crops will hardly admit that the In
dams are needy. "Injun no hungry
now" he will answer to your hosp1ta-
BILE question throwing back his proud,
melancholy head as If gazing into that
remote past with which-who knows?
he may be mentally contrasting the
present moment.
They ask for nothing except by way
of purchase and it would be unpre-
cedented for Seminole to Jump mis-
account" It is not difficult to see why
the mission needed the store. Besides
the advantage of location and the clos
err contact with the Indians in general,
the mission can also, through this
agency, help the Indians in general
without seeming to dispense charity
DR.. Golden has steadily kept the prices
of skins and furs up and of provisions
down. The store is thus run at some
loss in dollars and cents, but of great
gain in the efficiency and scope Of the
missions relief work.
The doctor and his assistants OF the
landing, moreover, kept open house
for the Seminoles at all times, dis
pensing a simple, cordial hospitality
frankly accepted by the glade people,
whose appreciation, as well as sense
of reciprocity, is shown by their Gus
tom of bringing gift offerings OF
their best to these good neighbors who
with kindness and truth, are gradual
" wiping the stains from the white
mans name.

ELECTRIC LINES
BRING WEALTH
RAPID TRANSPORTATION FACILI-
TIES HELP COUNTRY AND CITY.
Land Values Increase-Influenee on
Farms Much More Beneficial Than
That Obtained From Steam
Roads.

Nashville.-At a not far distant day
Nashville is destined to be the center OF
many radiating electric interurban rail-
way lines. The city can hope for moth
ing better, for she is always going to be
largely dependent on the magnificent
agricultural country surrounding her, and
when that country becomes thiekly set
tied with the best farming element,
which is certain to be attracted south
ward within the next few years, they
will be practically part OF the city's pop
ulation with such rapid and convenient
transportation facilities.
The contention that interurban trans
portation is great wealth and prosper
ity builder for both country and city ID
no longer a matter of theory, for 1T has
been practically demonstrated in the past
ten years in various parts of the United
States where these lines are in opera
ton, and proven by census reports OF
the population and land value OF these
sections as compared with others.
For instance, in some Of the Central
States where a network of these lines
has been built, the increase in popula-
ton of cities has been considerably above
the average of the whole, but what is
more to the point is that the increase in
population and land values of the coun-
try districts of these states is greater
than that of any other section of the
country.
Permanent prosperity means the build
ing up of the country along with the
city and easy INSTRUMENTATION be-
tween the two classes of residents has
proven the most important factor in the
remarkably healthy growth of the coun-
try districts in the states referred to-
