Hazard and Miss Bertel returned to known For upwards of an hour the detective tried to assist the young man to penetrate the veil that hung over his past, but all to no purpose. Enlargng upon the story he had told Miss Bertel, he repeated numerous times all the names that must have been familiar to anyone having con nection with the firms under consid eration, or any association with the huge enterprise that was of such mo ment to his supposed confreres. The unknown sat shaking his head and re- beating: "It is all strange to me" or q never heard that name before"
 Hazard gave up in despair Where upon Miss Bertel. who had remained a silent but interested spectator. was at once inspired. She rose and laid a sheet of paper on a desk and hantied a pencil to the young man. Outside, there was almost constant roar from passing elevated trains. She pointed to the structure and motioned to the desk
 "Draw that" she eommanded-"the T. span right in front of you"
 Without demur the young man seat cd himself at the desk and bent over the paper; but at once he reached out a hand and groped for something he could not find
 Next instant he started to his feet. The pencil dropped from his fingers, and like a man suddenly reused from sleep he stood blinking at Hazard and the girl.

MEN SLEPT ON THE MARCH

When removed to the hospitals, some of the soldiers slept for two or three days and nights continuously. It may be remembered that it has been said that on hospital train thrown into the Oureq by broken bridge during that retreat the sufferings of many of the men caught in the half wrecked coaches were lessened by the same anesthesia of fatigue.

New News Of Yesterday
How the San Francisco
Banks Kept Open
BY Holland.

The first report of the San Fran
cisco earthquake reached New York
city at about the time the business
day. at least in the financial district,
begins. At frequent intervals further
reports were received. followed by
statements that the city was in dan
ger of being destroyed by fire. In the
afternoon a dispatch was received
from Omaha stating that E. II. Harri-
man, president of the Union Pacific
Railroad-who happened to be in or
near Omaha at the time-had caused
his car to be attached to a locomo
tive and had given instructions 20
the engineer to make record time TO
the Pacific Coast. II was also said that
Mr.. Hartman had gone prepared to
aid the San Francisco banks so that
they could Immediately resume partial
operations at least and had also put
the entire facilities of the Union Pa
cifc Railroad system into relief
service.
Immediately the question arose.

bankers of New York city do? Will

CARE OF COSMOS

By taking a little trouble in the summer Cosmos can be kept bloom ing until Thanksgiving.
 In planting the late blooming sorts Lady Lenox is fine variety--put few more plants than are needed into as small pots as they will go, or if you prefer, buy seeds and SOW them in April or early May.
 AS the plants grow, pinch out the ends of the growth when they be- come two or three inches long, and repot as they need it.
 The Cosmos is a gross feeder and a rapid grower, requiring a rich, well-drained soil composed of garden loam, horse manure and one part sand.
 Grow the plants out of doors in summer, keep the pots in soil or fine coal ashes. Lift the pots around oc- casionally, so the plants cannot root into the ground. Water abundantly.
 Upon the approach of frosty weath- CT. the plants must be taken indoors or in the cellar, where they cannot freeze. By picking off the fading flowers the plants will continue to bloom until Thanksgiving
