Ark.. Mr Dudley lones la the autumn of 18T<2. Mr. Jones left tbe American river, near the point where gold was first discovered, and. reaching San Francisco, was one at 77. persons to embark for the port of San Juan del Sur on a tramp sail ing ship After a 4a-dav sail down the roar', during which they experienced a terrific norm and ran short of food, the ship dropped anchor off San Juan del Sur just before daylight. "As soon as possible we all went ashore" said Mr Jones recently, "only to find that the passengers by the regular Vanderbilt steamer from San Francisco had landed the day be fore and taken with them eastward to the lake every animal in San Juan del i Sur and thereabouts. As we had sail . ed on a tramp ship, so we were ' tramps, we had no claim on the Van derbilt company, so. with our blankets | on our backs, and our little posses i sions in carpet bags, and with rpore or loss gold dust apiece, we started off to tramp over the mountains in a tropical rain that fell all day. "As we struggled over the trails along the creek beds we became very much scattered. Finally, two or three of us came to a little house near the top of the mountains where a native family was eating dinner under a thatched shed. We asked for and were served with food, and we ate heartily, and after paying our bill asked what kind of meat we had eat en. For reply our host pointed to some chattering monkeys in the trees. That was the only food we had for 24 hours. , "That first day we made sis miles, at night reaching what was known as Vanderbilt’s Half-Way House, a large adobe warehouse, where the graded road began. “How many of the west-bound pas sengers reached the 'Half-Way House" during the night in the downpour I McKinley’s Campaign Methods _ * Insisted on Knowing In Advance What Delegations Were Going to Say, and Always Carefully Pre pared His Speeches While the first presidential cam paign for the election of William Mc Kinley was in progress. Lieut. Gov. Charles H. Saxton of New York vis ited Canton. O.. for the purpose of ar ranging with McKinley for the visit of a delegation of New York Repub licans to the McKinley home. Mc Kinley staled that it would give him great pleasure to receive any of his ! friends from New York state, adding, a moment later, that he imposed only one condition. "If anything is to be said of a political nature, anything not purely social, then I shall expect the remarks to be written out and : Evarts Was Just a Plain Man Secretary of State Could Not Conceal Hie Dislike for Conkling When Sir Richard Webster Praised the Senator. Two famous mva of yesterday who were natural!} repellant. and for no ®ood reason that was apparent to their friends, were William M Evarts and ko*i Of Conkling. ana the intense an tipathy. often bordering on downright hatred, that they bore for each other was productive of at least one inci dent illus'rative of bow small some great men can be at limes. When in 1472. Mr Evarts acted as rLief counsel for the United Statts before the celebrated Geneva Court of Arbitration, he made the acquaint ance of Sir Richard E Webster, who. its ISwas raised to the peerage and the same year became Lord Chief Justice of England. The friendship then establi.-hed was continued by cor responded *- af'er Mr. Evarts had re turned home, and when the latter learned that Sir Richard was planning to make a trip to America he gave the British jurist a cordial invita tion to visit him at his home in Wash ington Mr Evarts was then secre tary of state In due course the Englishman ar rived at the Evarts mansion anti was taken by bis host to meet President Hays. aow. it so happened that the neit dsy Koscoe Conkling was to make an important speech in the sen ate chamber The president knew 'his; be also knew of his secretary of state's dislike of Conkling, and. half in the spirit of mischief and half be cause he wanted the visitor from wbrc-ed to hear American oratory at Its best, he volunteered the informa tion that Sir Richard ought surely to visit the senate chamber the next afternoon The Englishman replying bhat be would be pleased to do so, there remained nothing for his host to do but to exercise his prerogative as bead of the state department and secure bis guest a good seat in that section at the gallery reserved for the uae of foreign diplomats. The evening following the great aft ernoon of speechmaking in the senate, the secretary of state gave a formal dinner at his home. Nearly all of the leading members of the administration were present. Of course. Sir Richard Webster was also present, and when one of bis fellow diners asked him what his experience had been at the capitoi a few hours before he at once began to voice his intense admiration for one of the speeches he had heard. Then, turning to Mr. Evarts, he con tinued: "The speech I have in mind was made by Senator Conkling. I believe he represents your own state, Mr. Evarts." The secretary of state nodded his head slightly, while the other mem bers of the administration straggled to suppress smiles; for the antipathy that existed between Evarts and Cock ling was well known to one and all. "I have never heard an abler speech : in our house of commons.” pursued Sir Richard, innocently. "Nor have I ever witnessed a more impressive de livery. The man is magnificent. As an orator he is without a superior.” Again Mr. Evarts nodded his head. ■ this time ever so slightly. "And, I should say,” persisted the Englishman, "be should be your fore- ‘ most orator I presume'he is a very able advocate. He must have many clients in your courts. Is it not so, Mr. Secretary?” This time there was not even an al most imperceptible nodding of the secretary of state's head. Instead, in words precisely spoken, and with a 1 manner that was not lost upon Sir Richard, his host replied: “I do not know whether it Is or not. ; I never saw him in court, and I never j heard of his being there.” For a moment there was silfice, ! then Sir Richard, with commendable tact, changed the subject, and a few minutes later Mr. Evarts was once again the charming and entertaining host. But the other members of the administration still slyly smiling. I 'Copyright. 1910. by E. J. Edwards. All Rights Reserved.) do not know; there were several hun dred, at least. Yet next morning, as. with tightened belts, we trudged on our way to the lake over the graded portion of the road, we met many west-bound passengers struggling through the mud and water. We saw many pitiful sights on that six-mile stretch, enough to make us think lightly of our own troubles. There were delicate women on horses, with children tied on to other horses, all wading through mud and water that sometimes reached to the bellies of the animals. As we were crossing a slough we saw a lady on a horse, w ith her three small children tied onto another. The children were crying; the mother was trying to keep her courage up and urge the poor beast, bearing her children, along Present ly a vaquero came along and helped them through the slough. “This was Vanderbilt's road. oTer which that lady had paid her fare. With such terrible exposure practical ly all the way across Nicaragua it was no wonder that so many of the trav elers were prostrated with fever by the time they reached the Pacific steamer. And of the thousands who paid to go to California over the Van derbilt road many never got nearer their destination than the open field hack of the Mexican town of Aca pulco, which came in time to be known as the American graveyard.” (Copyright. 1910. bv E J Edwards. AU Rights Reserved.) submitted to me before delivery,” he said. This is a vital point. When I am going to address any delegation. I always make it a point carefully to write out what 1 am to say." Furthermore, McKinley was prob ably as careful in the preparation of campaign speeches as was Roscoe Conkling. William H. Seward or Ho ratio Seymour. Like those great cam paigners, McKinley took the utmost pains in the preparation of a political address. Indeed, he went even far ther than any of those men did. per haps because be did far more general campaigning than any of them, fre quently speaking two and three times a day during an entire political cam paign. Having thoroughly thought out the argument In support of the issues which he represented. McKinley la bored assiduously over reducing his arguments to writing. That task final ly accomplished to his satisfaction, he then carefully divided what he had written into sections. Sometimes a section would consist of two or three brief paragraphs. Sometimes it would be long enough to consume fifteen or twenty minutes in delivery. Again it would come perilously near to em bracing everything that had been re duced to writing. Never was a section arbitrarily given a certain length Whenever Mc Kinley made a campaign tour of any Importance he carried with him a time-table of his own making. This showed the places where he was to speak and the length of stay in each town. If the train schedule called for a one-minute stop at the next town McKinley glanced over that portion of his speech which could be deliv ered, and was prepared, in fact, for a one-minute address, if a five-minute stop was scheduled, then he would re fresh his memory of the five-minute section of his speech. A fifteen-minute stop caused the fifteen-minute section to be brought forth: and where time permitted the entire speech would, of course, be delivered. So skilful, how ever. was McKinley in varying his phraseology that he never seemed to repeat himself. Practically every time he delivered the five-minute section of his speech, for example, it would be clothed in a new verbal dress. Yet the meaning of the section was al ways the same, and as clearly pre sented in one dress as another. This, perhaps, was the most strik- ; ing of the various tricks of campaign ing that McKinley employed which led those who accompanied him on his campaigns to state with practical unanimity that McKinley was the most skilful and economical user of his time, his voice, and his mental and physical strength of any campaigner they had ever accompanied.

Carpenter Solves the Mystery _ * Hens Mistake China Door Knob for Egg and He Gets a Fresh One Every Morning. The high cost of living was being discussed by the Curbstone club when the Ancient Carpenter happened to stroll in. “It's almost Impossible to get eggs at any price," the Plumber was saving Just as the Ancient Carpenter entered. "Yes. and the oddest thing you ever heard," the Carpenter exclaimed, “is 1 that I have been getting a fresh egg | every morning for nothing." The Carpenter’s reputation for weird yarns was enough to cause the whole membership to gather about him to hear his latest. "It's like this," the Carpenter con : tinued. "When I got up the other morning and found a nice fresh egg on my doorstep I thought someone might have put it there by mistake, but after the thing happened time after time ] the mystery began to get on my j nerves. 1 had to stay up half of one night to find out where the eggs came from.*" “Well." came the chorus, "where did they come from?" "A couple of weeks ago I happened to break the brass knob off the kitchen door and. wishing to fix it at once. I substituted a white china knob that happened to be at hand. "I found that one of my neighbor's hens, mistaking the knob for a nest egg. had been perching on it every night and laying a nice big egg for my breakfast." "How does it happen that the eggs were not broken by the fall?" “Does seem odd. doesn't It?" the An cient Carpenter grinned. "Here's the answer: Under the knob is a nice soft doormat which receives the eggs right In the middle where they coddle up against the very ap propriate motto, 'Welcome.' r—Youngs town Telegraph. Hats, Soft and Small also they weigh almost nothing and are comfortable. The black hat Is made of a very soft silk fiber braid, with a large or nament made of a similar braid in king's blue. Two quill ribs are mounted in this ornament at the left 6ide. They are smart, but not jaunty like quills, and are therefore suited to older women. The hat Is bound with velvet about the face. The second hat is made of silk braid in two colors. The crown is in champagne color and the brim in black. It is finished with a piping of satin about the face and satin buttons. The very clever draping By JULIA BOTTOMLEY. TWO beautiful braid hats are shown here which will please the gentle lady who is looking for elegance and beauty and comfort all in one chapeau. One of them is a wireless turban, that is. made without a frame, and the other has a very light wire frame so fine that it is almost flexible. Natur ally such hats shape themselves to the wearer’s head and are becoming; * of the braid crown and brim cover ing makes a sufficient trimming. A word to the wearer of the tur i ban as to the coiffuire. A little fringe j of hair must show about the face, and a few puffs and curls are as essential ! to the little hat as to the big one; in fact, more so, because a big hat ob scures the hair while a little one rests on it. Provide the correct coiffuire before selecting your turban. COMFORT IN COOL WEATHER Coat in Material of Olive Green Cloth That Little Maid Will Appreciate.

Seven bridesmaids at a recent fash ionable wedding walked in single file up the aisle of the church. All wore gowns of cream messaline over rain bow silk. Their short lace veils were caught with half wreaths of flowers. One wore moss rosebuds In her hair and carried a muff of the same blos soms. Next came a girl decked with sweet peas. Violets, yellow and brawn nasturtuma. clematis. Meteor roses and orchids also bloomed in the piqnant decoration of the bride's at tendants. New Shades in Pink. From rose petal down to glowing cerise and coral and peach tones the manufacturers have brought out ir resistible pink shades which no wom an could possibly resist. With the advent of the new "Helen pink" also there will be a great de mand for this color, since It ts pre dicted that it will be as popular as “Alice blue." LOOKS WELL ON DESK Cretonne Writing Set a Gift Which Will Be Pleasing to Any Girl. For the maid who loves white enameled furniture and dimity cur tains and dresden china toilet articles nothing could be more charming than a cretonne-covered writing set for the boudoir desk. It is especially approp riate in a simple rosebud design for a young girl. First there is the big blotter, the foundation cut out of heavy cardboard after a leather model and the cre tonne carefully pasted on, with tiny stitches to round the corners proper ly. A narrow gimp edging may be used if desired, but if you can do the work neatly enough it is reallj pret tier without. Next in order is the set ci note books. ranging from the big hairy to the little address book, and each neat ly bound. Here the gilt or green gimp is more in order, but you may suit >our own tastes about that. Calendar (the cards for the perpet ual variety may be bought, with a light, cheap frame, at any stationer's) and picture frames belong together; and after them come the little boxes for pen points, elastics, etc. These may be merely little jewelry boxes lined with silk or velvet or, better, gray chamois. There are three articles which must not be included in this set. These are the ink well and the pen tray, because of the danger of stain ing them, and the candlesticks, be cause of that of fire. But !f you wish your set to be complete, you can get these in dresden china, with a iittle clock to match, in a design closely approximating that of ths cretonne. Perhaps it would be bette- to buy the china first and match the cretonne from it. All sorts of smaller articles, such as little blotters, penwiper, paper cutter, etc., may be covered with the pretty fabric. Of course, brocaded silk may be used instead, if you de sire to make the set a more expen sive one. And. by the way, give a piece of the plain fabric with your present, or get it extra if you are making the set for yourself. For accidents will hap pen. and first aid is a useful thing to hare at hand. A Timely Tip. This is an excellent season for bring- ! ing out the family lace box and going through it carefully to see what treas- : ure it really contains. There are an [ infinite number of ways in which bits ' of lace may be employed. Not the least oi these is a garniture on one’s new spring millinery. Some of the | very smartest hats are to be trimmed , with lace or made entirely of it White lace is especially favored and will be seen on picturesque bonnets as well as on smart walking toques. One of the new designs is a bonnet made of white lace and trimmed with ruchings of narrow black velvet. The only other' garniture is a posy of tiny pink roses A toque of black straw has a jabot of white lace going up the front and over the crown something alter the man ner of an ostrich plume.
