INVESTED Great and Small, They Camber Thou sands and Their Enthusiasm Is I n llmlted Bareral Nehraskana Art Prominent. Westward the rmy of American phtl atpliHts Is making Its way. Stump col lectors from the four ends of this grand old republic are Journeying today toward Denver, the tlnibrologlual Mecca of 1W7. With bag and baggago they are bound for the convention city to discuss these mnt tsrs that are now of most moment i to thera and to the solace of which they are devotees. Vuesday morning this gathering of staniplore lademl hobbyists will be oonveyed to Plke'a Peak, where one of the business sessions of the American Philatelic association will be held. Tliia year's convention is the twenty-second annual meeting In the history of the organization and it will be significant for several reasons. One of these Is that the American association has but recently passed the 1,000 mark In membership. Dur ing Its two decades of existence It has had Keveral times over this affiliation, but death and other causes which affect the membership of organisations generally have Interfered to prerent the maintenance of a total of 1,000 until now. The number of stamp collectors In the V'nlted Ftatea may well be said to be with out number. Their name Is legion. They are found In every walk and condition of life. They are not confined to either sex. or to any age. They have Invested In th-lr pot and Instructive hobby millions of dollars. TJie Amerlean Philatelic associa tion comprises the cream of them. Thou sands are affiliated with local stamp so cieties and thousands. In the language of the euchre player, nava chosen to "go It alone," and to these classes have been lost the advantage of association and ex change of Ideas fvllu the real princes of philately. Another fact that adds Interest to this year's gathering of the stamp men and women la that It la the first convention that has been held since stamp collecting was officially decreed a science and stamp col lectors scleiitlots. This was through the Influents of King Kdward of Great Britain, etc., whose edict concerning this matter was generally accepted throughout Christ endom as a most wise and Just recognition of the nul worth and position of phllaiuly among the affairs of mankind.

There Is a vigorous tight on In the asso ciation this year In the ele tlon of officers. The battle, while a spirited one. Is wholly harmonious, and although the friends of the two tickets are working energetically for their respective favorites, both sides gallantly concede the ability of the op ponents, and the winners will sing the praises of the victorious ticket with no greater Best or sincerity than the loners. Albeit It has been an Interesting campaign, for the advocates of both tickets have been Working for weeks. Mr. E. Deet'lin of Pittsburg Is the presi dential candidate of one side, while Mr. John N. I.ufT of New York City Is the standard bearer of the other faction. Back, of each Is an array of earnest followers. If the Deehlin ticket wins the headquar ters of the b'ard of vice presidents, which Is a power In the affairs of the associa tion, will remain In Chicago. If the I.uff ticket Is successful the board will be com posed of Hostonlans. The IK'cblln-Chicago candidates for this board are Messrs. H. W. Wolseley, F. Michael and C. F. Mann. The Luff-Boston candidates tor the. board of vice presidents are Messrs. C. A. Howes, 1. I,. Oreen and Kdward de Z. Kelley. But one candidate's name appears on both tickets, ami that is that of Mr. F. R. Cornwall of St. Louis. Mo., who will there fore secure an unanimous vote. The posi tion for which his friends have put him forward Is that of membership tn the di rectorate of the association. DVVIGHT BL RROCGHS. Instances of Longevity. NKW YORK.

NKW YORK, July 27. Book plates for children debigned by some clever artlbt is one of the n"W nursery ideas. In many playrooms a visitor will tlnd In volumes of "Jungle Stories," or "Little Women," or "Mother Goose," beautifully engraved vel lum slips showing some pictures dear to children and proclaiming "William Stuy vesai't, 3d, Ills Book," or Gladys Van der Steuben Her Book." In artistic quality and in signature lhi.su plates are as worthy of merit as those which mark the ownership of the rare books in the family library. But, while the book plates of the elders show In compli cated allegory or heraldry the tastes or lineage of the adult collectors, the child ren's book plates are cxteremly simple. For the little ones scenes from "Mother Goose" the "Three Blind Mice," or the "Clock With ine Mouse Running l'p" or chickens, birds, rabbits, dogs or what not s.ivc as motifs. For little girls, dolls or flowers or garden scenes serve, while the boys may have pictures of hunting, Ashing, lowing or other sports. The book plate for children, however. Is not Intended as a book plate for permanent use. It Is prepared merely for use during childhood, until the owner developes Indi vidual tastes which will lead him to have his own book plate designed. The bock plate, however, Is by no means confined to the children of the rich, for the teachers of drawing in the public schools uutckly recognized the value of the book plates as lessons In design and drawing. As a reault, many children have been taught to fashion their own designs Is suf ficient number to mark all of their story bsoks and text books. In fail, in public school 59. In Fast Fifty seventh street, a prlxe was offered to the children for the best design for an artistic book plate to mark all the books In the school. The prize design, the work of a girl only 14 pears old, was then blocked and Is to be printed and carefully pasted In all the books used In the school. Since New York schools have taken this work up art teachers In other cities have introduced it. In fact, In the courses on ! m l ami design for teachers given In the I New York university summer school on l'nl ersity Heights, where teacher from all the large cities are atudylng. and in the pedagogical courses for art teachers In the Monday only rri-: tin Mil i irvu r vn'!& .x winter the teaching of book plate design for children has become a special feature. In discussing the work Dr. P. J. Haney, director of manual arts in the Manhattan schools, who is giving the university courses, said: "The designing of book plates, we have found, is a valuable exercise in that it gives the chliu a chance to desnn and draw something Immediately useful u.:u pleasure giving. This la a great stimulus with the very young to artlHtlc effort. But It has also been found that if the child has a book plate bearing his name to put In his book he is far more apt to keep his books clean and not be scribbling his name all over the flyleaves. Particularly does the book plute counteract the tendency ef the child to write on the flyleaf: "If my uame you wish to see l4ok on page HXJ." "And on page ha the searcher will tlnd: "To find my nume you must look once mote. It's written on page 2lM." "This practice naturally ruins books and quickly makes them dirty and unpleasant, especially if the searcher for the answer gets angry and rubs out with a wet linger all the poetry.' "Moreover, 1 think that if a child can.be led to take the trouble to make a book plate for a book he will unconsciously be come mure friendly to books and leain to love them. In the old collector the book plalu la a mark of pride of ownership in some rare volume, and he trusts to his book plate. to keep his name alive among lcllow collectors und book lovers after he is gone. The child's book plate has no such slgnllicance, but it dues mean that the child thinks enough of his book to ee that bis rutins and mark add to its appearance, instead ol defacing 11."

CAPTAIN, JOHN FOSTER DID TASK Made n Systematic KtTort and Cleaned Ip the Terrltoy of llaajr Vicious Char acters. MITCHELL, 8. D., July 27. (Special.) Cattle rustling of the Rosebud and Sioux reservation has became pretty nearly an obsolete industry, and It has been dropped for the more profitable Industry of rustling horses, which are worth more money than a cow. There is an element out on thoa, reservatlons which have reached the idea that they are entitled to a living and that the more fortunate settlers have gut to furnish it them. The, officers have gone alter the crowd of rustlers with a de termination to put them out of business quicker than the cattle rustlers were ex tinguished. Captain John Foster, the government stock Inspector for the Rosebud reserva tion, has taken an active part in going after the horse thieves in the past two or three months and with notable success. The thieves were able to carry on their op. erations for some time before the Inspector got a scent of their work, but once on their trail he has been successful in sending quite a few of them to the penitentiary. Tom Ferron. the acknowledged leader of the gang, was the first who was caught tn the Inspector's net, and after a trial Is was landed in the penitentiary to serve his term. A few weeks later a fellow named ltuymond was captured and taken to Dead wood and placed In Jail to await his sentence. Following up the capture of Ray mand, Captain Foster landed three more of tlie gang In one haul and they are now safely behind the bars. Ferreting; Out the liana;. Captain Foster went back over his trail tn see if there were others of the -ang still In hiding to attempt their business. Mak ing Inquiry among some of the settlers the Inspector fourfd to his surprise that several members of the gang wire at work in the ; section of the country farther west over In the vicinity of White river, and that they were making their headipiai ters at I Dave Coomb's old ranch on the river. where tin y seemed to be immune from disturbance. It was at this place that he landed the three rubbers at one haul, and In such an easy manner as to disconcert the robbers and make them feel that there were taken without having a show to -cse. Captain Foster went out to Muni ne of the new Towns on the lil.uk Hills line of the Chicago, Milwaukee .V St. Paul rail road, and with the assistance of an officer, he started In pursuit uf the horse thieves. The officers were prepared for a deter BIG WASH GOODS SALE We are cleaning up all odd lines in our big Wash Goods Section, and will sell Monday, our Swisses, batistes, lawns, silk mulls, that sell tor 12,ac and 15c AU go In this big sale, for, per yard IMS AND You are thus able, positively, to buy linen and white goods at lens than manufacturer' prices.

The Inspector and the officer reached the lonely appearing cabin out on the prairie Just about dark. The cabin is surrounded by hills and makes an Ideal place for the rendevous for the hunted men. The officers found the cubln vacant and went lnK took possession of the place, muklng themselves as comfortable as possible, to await the arrival of their victims. Kxerclseil NtrnteirT. On the way to the cabin Captain Foster laid a scheme to work a little strategy In the blinding of the robbers when they should appear at their home. He stopped at one of the neighbors, where they found a small boy, who Is regarded as a sort of a white slave in that section, and he had a mortal fear of Morgan, who was at the head of the gang the Inspector was trying to capture. The captain buok the lad along with' him over to the cabin. Along about 10 o'clock Morgan and his men showed up. Instead of dismounting and entering the cabin he pulled his .44-gun (ever) tiling Is .44 on the reserve) and fired two shots Into the cabin with the Intention of frightening off any Intruder who might be there. It was here that the captain used the lad to good advantage. He sent the boy nut to answer to the shots and when he appeared alone it was sufficient to Morgan that there was nobody else present. Throwing the reins to the lad, Morgan commanded him to take the horse off to the barn. On entering the cabin, one room, was in dark ness. When the door opened the inspector stepped behind It and quietly opened an other door, letting In sufficient light. The Inspector then stepped Into full view and ordernd the horse thelf to throw up hi hands. Looking Into the barrels of a couple of .44s and knowing the character and determination of the officer, Morgan submitted with the quietude of a lamb. He was disarmed and bound and given Into charge of the officer. Captain Foster then went out to hunt the rest of the Kr;. He found Whiting at the corral taking care of the horses they had been able to secure In their roundup, and It was the work of a moment to get the drop on him. and It was done so quietly that the third man was not aware of what was going on until the inspector had taken the mun to the house and turned hlin over to the of ficer. Third One F.naily Taken. The Inspector found his third man lust coming out of another corral and at the point of his gun the captain invited the fellow to Join the party in the house. A close guard was kept over tne nu n during the night and the hoy was kept there for a while and later allowed to go home During the long hours of the night an effort was made to rescue Morgan and his pals. Home of their friends got wind of what had happened in the early part uf the evtning. and the officers hit on a phut to frustrate any attempt to secure the release of the nun. Captain Foster drew ills revolver When the rcBi'lleis approached the house and, plating the cold steel of of the barrel against the bead of Morgan, WHITE GOODS SH''lland Kmhroidered Swiss, choice,, J-"" ID flV Hand Kmhroidered Cambric, choice, yard 10 Til-inch Cream Table llumii.sk, renu. lar price Oc, yanl 20u 21-inch lileachi'd Unmask Napkins, all linen, regular $I.."U quality doeu OS tiew Dolls Hew Teddy Bears Hew Auto mobiles (lew Hand Cars.

The rest of the night passed by In an uneventful manner, and the day following the men were taken down to the Rosebud Agency and pluccd In sale keeping. They are now each doing their turn In the peni tent inry. Out west of Murdo there Is still a gang of horse thieves who have so far avoided detection, but at the present term of court a portion of it was sent over the road. For some time past a saloon keeper at Murdo Ahas been under suspicion as acting as s fence for the horse rustlers, and after a vigilant watch he was caught with the goods on htm and a trial in the circuit court was sufficient to send him to tho penitentiary for a term of three years for his part played In the game. The gang Is mighty suspicious of any body riding up to their cabins and oft times one gets a rather unwelcome recep tion. A couple of strangers In that sec tion rode up to the cabin of one pf the leaders and knocking on the door asked lor supper and to stay all night. Th answer they received was a couple of shots from a .44. The strangers did not realize that they had gone against any-', thing wrong, but they took the hint that , they were not wanted and went to an ad- i Joining cabin and told of their experience. They were accommodated with something to eat and the next day when they went In to Murdo they relxtcd what happened to them out on the prairie. This gava the officer a thread to follow and ha started nut to the place. There he found several horses tethered In an obscure place and the thief In hiding in the cabin, wait ing for the nightfall to make his escape farther Into the wilds of the country. He was arrested and Is now serving his term tn the penitentiary. The horse thief had Just remind the cabin a few moments be fore und he thought that the strangers were officers close in pursuit. Had he used a little more common sense be would have been able to have made bis escape Just as he had planned to do. There Is not now, however so much of the robbing going on as before, for the c ount i Is fast settling up with a dais of people, and the less honest are being driven from their haunts into other places. What was once a pe rfect hotbed for cattle rustling and all kinds of robberies Is now being turnid Into an honest civilization, and all because c f the coming of the rail road and Its civilizing influences, and where courts of justice are now regarded with tho dignity of the law. An offender now has a mighty small chance of packing the ury with his friends or the people held In subjugation of fear tnut their property will be destroyed If the do not bring in a verdict that will liberate the offenders.
