Thaw's Effort a Failure.

New York.-A speedy end was put
to Harry X. Thaws fifth effort at liber-
alton by the withdrawal of the writ of
habeas corpus, which again had been
invoked in his behalf. DIR. Charles
Kennedy, Thaw's new counsel, said
that this move was prompted by the
fear that the scandal attached to the
$4,000 bond for his clients release
which the governors committee on in
quiry developed, would prejudice an
attempt to have Thaw declared sane at
this time.

other countries does music play sucA
a large part In the daily life of tn
people. They learn all kinds OF III
struments readily and even among the
poorest classes there are few who
have not some form Of musical accom-
plishment. No village Is without 1T
orchestra, which Is called out OIL
every ocacsion and plays for hours ap
parently out Of the sheer JOY of the
music. Yet the Filipinos are the one
people without a national music, and
no Filipino composition Is known to
fame. They have never produced
either vocalist or an instrumentalist OF
more thon local note. All who attend
ed the St. Louis exposition will re
member the fine Filipino Constabulary
band which attracted SO much favor

still in existence and no one could de

the band is a negro from Boston, and

Out Of the emperor's apartments,
where, fighting desperately for their

against the wall, there tottered a
frail old man with pale. blue troubled
eyes. And, as he emerged, sudden
ly the din grew quiet, and. where
there had been murderous shouts and
clashing blades, there might have
been tableau in marble. The old
man came into the passage and his
eyes fell on the assailants, who stood
before him with lowered swords
Then instinctively Franz Joseph

"Offcers of the Guards!" he shout

,feebly welding it, calling on the
names of his great captains, dead fifty
years before. The last survivor of all
those stirring years, he seemed like
one re-arisen from the grave. A su.
perstitious fear fell on all present.
The assailants retreated toward the
head of the stairway, and, gathering
there in little knots, looked with trou.
bled eyes upon the pathetic figure OF
their once mighty emperor.
Suddenly without there came a
trumpet call. 1t echoed through tho
halls, electrifying all into life.
"The regiment from Freiburg!"
shouted the princess. and her face
took on the aspect of an amazon.

assailants fed down the stairs and
broke into the midst Of the newcom-
ers. They Glove their way into the
heart Of them, a struggling wave amid
the white-coated veterans of the en-
peror; in a moment the hall was fill

He saw her eyes harden like points

to hear her answer.

my heart for what you have done, she
said. Remember, Paul. your pledge
to me, the pledge you gave when first

MAY COMPLETE SCHOOLHOUSE

The Metropolis school house row

likely to finish the building and
remedy the defects which the
architect says exists. The Metro
polls school house was to cost
about s25, 900 and some time ago
the contractor notified the archi-
tect that the building was finished.
The architect inspected the build
ing and notified the contractors
Farnsworth & Bowman that there
were many serious defects in the
building and he would not approve
it or accept it as completed until
such defects are remcdicd. Then
the trouble started.
The contractors appear unwilling
or unable to remedy the defects
and finish the building. 1t is under
stood the bonding company will
make good and take ever the work
the contractors have left undone.
BY this arrangement the county
will not be n loser.

U S Postal Inspectors. A young
Indian girl about sixteen years Of
age and now a student at the Car
son Indian school raised and falsi-
fed postal money order which
she bought at Nixon, Nevada, for
five dollars so as to make it read
fifty dollars, cashed it aud got the
money. The case was brought to
the attention of United States At
torney Platt and on account of her
age, of her nativity and possible
lack of knowledge of the serious
ness of the offense has given him
considerable concern. He immed-
lately began further investigation
and found that within the last ysar
the girl has raised" and cashed
four other money orders and had
accumulated about one hundred
and seventy dollars in cash of
which but twelve dollars and a
half remain. All the rest went
for up.to-date American clothes.
The girl made a complete confes =
ion to the United States Attorney
and told him that she was FIRST
taught the art by a white man in
California who gave her half the
spoils for cashing the money order.
The officials are now hot on his
trail. The United States Attorney
instead Of arresting the girl and
having her committed TO jail has
placed her in the custody Of the
Superintendent of the Indian School
and will communicate with Wash

QUOTED AT
81 CENTS AN OUNCE

When the local silver settlement
price advanced to 81 cents yest.r-
day the White metal reached fg-
ure higher than at any other point
in a year. This advance in the
past two days of nearly two cents
an ounce means approximately
s26o.O0O for gtah mine owners.
The jump yesterday of hal; cent
is equal to half that amount. Sud-
den demands in China and India
with temporary shortage in other
large consuming centers is given as
the reason for the important ad-
vance of the past few days.
With silver high, copper soaring
toward l8 cents a pound, spelter at
S5.70 and lead at s4.75. all at very
satisfactory levels to local ,perat-
ors and indications favorable for
even still further advances, the
mining situations in the west has
reached an exceedingly interesting
stage.
"All that is needed now is for
weste . nen who have made their
all out q mines to step forth, dig
down in Shoir pockets and lend a
little cash encouragement TO the
prospector and mine owner with
legitimate properties, and mining
would be on its feet in one leap"
