She has got a doll of cliina with red roses in Its cheeks, And a fairhaired waxen dolly that can close its eyes and sleep And another one imported she can wind up and it speaks, And a little darky baby that can say "Mamma" and creep. •But the doll against her breast When she snuggles down to rest Is no fairhaired waxen image that can close its eyes or speak Just a bundle in a string, That can't creep or talk or sing. But its Rags, when sleep comes to her, that is snuggled 'gainst her cheek. Not af fairhaired waxen image that was made beyond the Rhine, Nor a wee machine-made Sambo that can creep across the floor, Wakes the baby heart to loving, makes the baby eyes to shine, Wakes the inborn mother instinct, makes her heart's best love outpour. But just Rags, the humble Ragi, Wakes a love that halts nor flags. Only Rags can soothe her slumbers only Rags in Dreamland walks Only Rags can understand Ev'ry pressure of her hand It's just Rags who bends to listen and looks knowing when she talks. It's just Rags she snuggles to her when she "do's a-payin' talis." "It's dess Wags 'at loves her mummy an' Wags do's where mummy do's."

Kellogg Newspaper Co* CHAPTER XVIII.—Continued. .Teuton's testimony was tlie sensa tion of the trial, and it furnished for many days to come the material for instructive editorials in the press of the eit.y. The cotton magnates looked a little foolish when they found that they had been spending their money on a detective instead of a great capitalist, but they soon put aside their crestfallen air in the •admiration they felt for a man who could do such clever work as Fenton had accomplished. Some of the offi cers who had been unwittingly lend ing themselves to the concealment of a great crime lcept very quiet for a while. In the general excitement people forgot to watch the countenance of Franklin, upon which a deathly pal lor had settled. But the keen eyes were full of fire. It was the supreme moment of his life when, the gaze of the court room being attracted to ward him, he faced it with diabolical fury. At this stage of the proceedings those dispassionate individuals who liked to analyze testimony expressed the opinion that while it had been well established that Franklin was a very handy, all-round scoundrel, it had not been proved that Herbert Wright was innocent of his father's murder or rather, there were a num ber of apparently damning circum stances connecting Wright with the •crime which had not been explained. It was true it had been shown very conclusively that Franklin had con ceived a gigantic scheme of robbery with incidental murder and other crimes for the purpose of getting his hands on a great fortune. His vari ous denials had been amply dis proved, so no attempt had been made to account for the fact that Herbert Wright had pawned tli evidences of his guilt the very day of his father's murder. How came he by those articles? Unless he could give a reasonable explanation of that the •case against him was hardly impairefl by the fact that Franklin was a vil lain. Before concluding his evidence with the statement of Herbert Wright, Mr. Everett introduced a gunsmith who testified that he sold Col. Franklin such a pistol as that which was in evidence. He was then asked to com pare the ball taken from Wright's brain and say whether it was the proper size, and he replied in the affirmative. The prisoner at the bar now took the stand amid a dead silence. He was pale, but self-possessed. He spoke clearly and to the point: On the day before my father was killed I called upon him for help. My wife and child were in an almost starving condition, and I could not get employment. It was a hard wrench to ray pride to beg from him, but I did so, and—was roughly re pulsed. The following day I had been to, town to make another attempt to get work and had failed. Uncle Dick Norria had always been very friendly to nae, so in my extremity I con cluded to go to him and see if he could not let me have, a bit of bread and some game, of which he usually Jiad a supply in the house. On the 'Way back I was cold, hungry, cynical desperate. It seemed to mc that «thr, whole world was against mo, that tsunh a thing as a kindly heart did i.no) xist, and that the bao and the unjust, only managed to ti:.-Ivn. My .'father's strict orders prevented mv -mother and sister frmn doinj nny r-ihing for me und mine. Au idea formed itself dimly in my mind that was an Ismael, and that henceforth my hand should be lifted against every other man. I was half delirious with hunger and cold. The snow whipped me cruelly in the face as I plowed alo*». I was friendless and miserable, and haunted by visions of a pale wife and a starving child at my cheerless home. "So absorbed was I in these miser able reflections that I did not see a figure approaching through the thick ening snowflakes and the darkened woods. Evidently the person did not see me, either, until we suddenly con fronted each other. He was a large man in a heavy overcoat, and he was muffled up about the face so that it was impossible to tell who he was. I had the sensation of a man who un expectedly meets a wild animal in a jungle. Two eyes of deep and mur derous malignity were fixed upon me. Tn his hand was a heavy stick which he held as if he intended to make an attack. I have no doubt that Frank lin—for it was he—was even more startled at my appearanc.e than I was at his. In the light of subsequent dis coveries I am satisfied that having committed the crime of murder, he was terribly excited to run thus un expectedly against the son of the man whom he hatl just killed. What ever his thoughts were, it was my impression at the time that the per son before me wanted to kill me, and I fancied that he was about to maka the assault—for the light of murder still lingered in his face. He must have had a somewhat similar feel ing about me for we silently faced each other like two men who had agreed on a duel to the death. I was not much troubled by the prospect of danger, for I had long since lost the feeling of physical fear. I had a. stout cudgel in my hand and I was desperate anyhow. This condition of mind gave me strength and agility. I did not wait for an attack, but rushed at once upon him. My deci sion had been prompter than his, for he was unquestionably unnerved. My first blow landed fairly on his head, and, to my astonishment, the tall and vigorous looking stranger lay senseless at my feet. Further blows were unnecessary. As he fell some thing dropped from one of his over coat pockets. I picked it up and found it to be a watch. This put an idea into my head—put it there strongly, burningly, and when I dis covered who it was that I had knocked down, I did not stop to de- "WE SILENTLY FACED EACH OTHER LIKE TWO MEN WHO HAD AGREED ON A DUEL TO THE DEATH." bate against the thought. I had al ways regarded Col. Franklin as an enemy of the family rather than a friend. I had been satisfied for some time that he grew rich off my father's unfortunate crime, and that it was he who icept alive my father's re sentment against me. I cannot say that I reasoned all this out at that time, but I felt that I had felled an enemy and somehow I was entitled to the spoils. In plain English, I de termined to rob the man whom I had thus vanquished. In one of his over coat pockets I found a knife and the cuff buttons which have since beeH identified as my father's in his vest pocket was the watch which has here been identified as Franklin's and in his shirt bosom was the diamond pin which lias figured in this case. These articles I quickly appropriated. A pair of handsome sleeve buttons which he wore attracted my atten tion, but they were fastened so firm ly in as to resist my hurried ef forts, so tore the cuffs promptly from the shirt. I noticed that they had dark spots on them, which after ward proved to be blood. In one of the overcoat pockets I found a pistol, but I decided not to take it. It was just about such a weapon as that dis played here, but I would not like to swear it was the same. He also had. a heavy stick, which being useless to me I did not take. Having secured all the valuables on his person, and satisfying myself he would soon come to consciousness, I hurried back to town to pawn the articles I had ob tained. This I did, never stopping to think of the danger to myself after ward, and then hastened homewartf over the short path. That evening we had something of a feast at home, I having made up a yarn to my wife to account, for the food I bought. I have here the blood-stained cuffs with the buttons in them, which I did not pawn. You will see that Col. Franklin's initials are written on the linen in india ink." Wright took from his pocket a small paper, which he opened, and dis played the cuffs, which were given to the juiy to examine. The prosecuting1 attorney examined l:im at considerable length, but oovld n.'t uhalcc his testimony. It was not possible to doubt the young man's evidence, for it was cor roborated by a number of minor cir cumstances, and besides, it was a complete explanation of the mys tery. Franklin had shot Wright from behind, had perhaps in a sort of murderous fury beaten him about the head with his stick and had then robbed him in order to create the impression that robbery was the mo tive for the crime then while hur rying away from the scene of the murder he himself had been knocked in the head and robbed. The testi mony showed that he had been in the Bayou Woods with Wright, that he had a wound in his head, that his watch and pin had been pawned, that Wright had secured the cuff buttons and the cuffs, that the pistol with which the murder had been commit ted was probably his and the ball fitted it. There was clearly no case against Herbert Wright, and the prosecut ing attorney himself moved that he be discharged from custody and,that the court order the arrest of James Franklin on the charge of murder until his case could be investigated by the grand jury. And so when Herbert Wright left the court room with the congratula tions of his friends he passed by Franklin, closely guarded by the sheriff. The trial of James Franklin took place a few weeks later and he was found guilty of murder in the first degree and sentenced to be hanged. Persistent efforts were made to over turn the judgment of the court and the governor was appealed to, but both the supreme court and the chief executive declined to interfere and Franklin expiated his crime on the gallows. CHAPTER XIX. The people of Nilus were naturally much interested in knowing the ac tual value of the Colorado mine which had been the exciting germ of such an elaborate conspiracy, but it was sold to Frederick Merivale for a sum which was entirely acceptable to the Wright family, but was never ac curately made public. Of course the memory of the tragic events herein set forth left its trace upon all those connected with them, and Mrs.* Wright, Miriam and Her bert decided upon an extensive trip to Europe, where they hoped to blot out the incidents of the ghastly past. For many months a terrible strain had been upon them, and only when all their trouble was over did they realize how great it had been. Amid peaceful scenes of the Old World, and in quiet nooks unadver tised by the indefatigable tourist, they passed an eventful year, and the record of an unhappy past became dim and unobtrusive. Irving Warde in the meantime re mained in this country, and waited confidently, but with some impa tience, for Miriam's return. The in terval of absence was brightened by regular letters, in which the won ders of the Old World were not the sole topic of consideration, but were indeed rather overshadowed by the wonders of love, which kept two dis tant hearts as warm as summer days. It was, from one point of view, an unfruitful year for Warde, though he made steady progress upward in his profession but he stifled as well as he could his selfish feelings, and whenever he grew despondent he took out Miriam's letters and dreamed of the happy days to come. And Miriam came back radiant with what she had seen and experienced, witli bright eyes and browned, clear cheeks, but unchanged in heart so far as Warde was concerned, and it was not long before she consented to nam* the day for the marriage, and that happy event followed in due course of time. Fenton drifted away to one of the large cities. His work in,the Wright case had won him fame far beyond his own state, and he was recognized as a bright man in police circles else where and so it was not long before he was snapped up by a superintend ent on the alert for good material and he became a famous detective. If anyone has some curibsity pn the subject, and will pass along Madison street inspecting the signs of the Nilus lawyers that swing out over the sidewalk, he will find one that is. old and dingy, but still bearing th'1 faint lettering: JOHN W. EVERETT, Attorney-at-Law. THE END. Ills Remarkable Life Line. A Chicago doctor who does not be lieve in a future state is telling the following story against himself With great glee: One of his daughter'! friends is an amateur palmist, and she recently told the doctor's fortunt by the lines on his hand. It so happened that in the doctor'* palm there is a very long line thai! starts from the base of the forefinger,, travels in an unbroken line to tin wrist, passes round the base of thi thumb and extends half way acrosi the back of his hand. While the palmist was discoursing very wisely about all the variour lines and other marks on his hand, fee noticed that she never said om word about this long1 line, but aftei she had otherwise exhausted the sub jeet, she said: "Doctor, yov. have a remarkablj long life line, the most wonderful have ever seet. or heard tell of, and 1 have been puzzling myself as to th» reason for it, and at last I think 1 know. You have got to live a long time in this world, doctor, becaus) you haven't any place to go U."' Chicago Record-Herald. Son of Ex-Mayor Edson of New York Kills Mrs. Fannie Pullen and Commits Suicide. HAN ENRAGED BECAUSE OF HER REFUSAL TO ELOPE WITH HIIH A«k» Her to Leave City with Him in the Presence of His Wife and Crime Follows Reprimand of Brother, Dr. Cyrus Edson—The Murderer Then Tarns Revolver on Himself. New York, Sept. 3.—Henry Townsend Edson, 39 years of age, of 292 West Ninety-second street, shot and killed Mrs. Fannie Pullen, 33 years old, ol 673 West End avenue, Wednesday, and then shot and killed himself. Th( double tragedy occurred at Edson's res idence. The murderer and suicide, a son ol Former Mayor Franklin Edson, and 8 brother of Dr. Cyrus Edson, is said t'c have been insanely jealous of the wom an, and wanted her to go away with him. The shooting occurred in the presenc« of Dr. David O. Edson, the suicide's brother, his wife, Mrs. Henry T. Edson, and a baggage mover, Thomas Wood. The families of Henry Townsend Ed son and Dr. Edson have lived togethei in the Ninety-second street house for a number of months. Wednesday Henry T. Edson was to vacate and leave the city for a short time. Wanted Her to Elope. According to the polipe and Woods, the furniture man, Edson had begged Mrs. Pullen to elope with him. Dr. Edson told his brother that he should be ashamed to make such a proposal in the presence of his wife. Townsend Edson became wildly excited and could not be calmed. He kept entreating Mrs. Pullen to leave the house with him, and go to another state, but she refused. When Woods entered the house, he says he saw Townsend point his revol ver toward Mrs. Pullen, and heard him say to her: "You must go with me. If you don't slope with me, I'll see that you go with me, anyway." Then Townsend fired two shots in quick succession. The first struck Mrs. Pullen in the right side of the forehead, and the second bullet plowed through the left cheek, tearing the flesh. Mrs. Pullen ran a few steps when she fell. Edson then turned the revolver on him self, firing two shots. The first shot went through his head, the second en tered the left breast near the heart. He dropped to the floor, his head falling across the woman's feet. Both died al most instantly. Had Quarreled tvlth His Wife. Recently Henry Townsend Edson had quarreled with his wife, and finally de cided that he would leave her. He had sent for Mrs. Pullen, yho was a friend of the family, and she came to the h.ouse, not knowing what was wanted. Mrs. Pullen and Dr. Edson were seated about the dining-room table. Edson is said to have told his wife he could not live with her any longer, and said that it would be better if they separated. This request was refused by Mrs. Edson, and the approaching trouble was quieted for the time. Suddenly, it is said, Edson turned to Mrs. Pullen, in the presence of his wife and his brother, and asked her to go away with him to some other state, where they could be happy. Mrs. Pullen indignantly refused the proposal, and turned away from Edson. Dr. Edson severely reprimanded his brother for making any such remarks, and then left the room with Mrs. Edson. Almost immediately afterwards the shooting occurred. Mrs. Pullen was the wife of John F. Pullen, an auditor at the Grand Cen tral station. She had two children. Mrs. Pullen and Mrs. Edson had been hitimate friends for 11 years. Kn^ngement to Dake Announced. London, Sept. 3.—The engagement Is announced of Miss May Goelet to the duke of Roxburghe.

For the World's Fair. Lieutenant Governor Bartlctt was in Fargo arranging for the sorting and packing of the agricultural ex hibits of North Dakota at the St. Louis exposition. The samples select ed in each of the counties of the state will be sent to this city and sorted and arranged so as to make up a comparative exhibit of the resources of the state, both agricultural and in dustrial. Mr. Bartlett is anxious that all per sons having good samples of corn and other grains to send them to him at Fargo so that a good exhibit of this character may be assured. It is also the desire of the exposi tion commission that a nice exhibit be made of the apples and small fruits raised in North Dakota, and all persons having1 samples to spare are requested to notify Mr. Bartlett and he will arring-e for their collection, he will arrange for their collection, prices for good samples. The commission is doing a large amount of good work this season arid North Dakota will make a creditable showing at the exposition without a doubt. Equalization of Taxes. The state board of equalization has made its final report. A number of slight changes were made on the personal property valu ation. Horses one year old were in creased 27 per cent, to an average of $14 two-year-old horses were increas ed 5 per cent to $22.05 three-year-old horses were increased 3 per cent to $32.96 stallions were increased 50 per cent to $150 cattle, one year old, were reduced 8 per cent to $8, and. 2 year-old and 3-year-old cattle were valued at $12 and $13 each. All other cattel were increased 20 per cent to $18 per head. Mules and asses, one year-old were increased 69 per cent to $16 2-year-olds, increased 16 per cent to $22.04 3-year-olds increased' 10 per cent to $33. Sheep were decreased 6 per cent to an average of $1.40 and pianos were left at $70 each. House hold goods were increased 5 per cent and agricultural tools and implements were increased 25 per cent, while en gines aud boilers were increased per cent. An Old Still. Out at Minot they are trying to fig ure out who has been making- moon shine whiskey there. While making excavations in the cellar of a house which was to be enlarged, workmen came across a complete outfit for dis tilling. The outfit gives evidence of having been out of use for a long time. The structure has been used as a hotel since its erection in 1888. The original owner was Carl Torben son, who occupied it fo^ over five years. He was succeeded by Chas. Robbins, who was in turn succeeded by C. C. Montgomery. After the death of Mr. Montgomery Mayor Roach came into possession of the hotel and and it has since been leased, but for some time past has been idle. Who ever put in the distillery evidently found it inconvenient to move it when he shut down operations, and it will be ingloriously consigned to the junk pile without ceremony and without epitaph. Prices Not High. The highest priced grass fed cattle from the western range so far this season, was a car-load of (tiree-year old steers from Dickinson, which sold on the Chicago market, at $4.65 per hundred live weight. A year ago the same quality of beeves would have sold for $5.50 to $6. Cattle ship ments are being held back with the expectation tha-t prices will be better a little later. A good many mutton sheep shipments are also being held back owing to the prevailing low prices in Chicago the past two weeks. News Notes.

He drew a ti letter from his pocket, glahced at it and. hastily put it back and there was wmiething in' the way he did it that attracted his wife's attention. He meant that it should, says the Chicago Post. "I wonder," she said to herself, "what's in that letter? He certainly was mightily disconcerted when he took it from his pocket." Later he changed his coat for his smok ing jacket and left the coat conveniently near her. The temptation was too great to be re sisted, and when he was out of the room she slyly abstracted the letter from hia pocket, as he had meant that she should'do. Her curiosity was satisfied. It was the bill for her latest £own, with comments on. ex travagance written across it. She wanted to answer them, but ehe could not without betraying what she haddone. She wa^angry, but she dared not show it. When he re turned she had to sit there and smile as pleasantly as she had before he left the room. Such a mean man! The J. P.'s Agree. Staunton, Ark., Aug. 31st.—News comet from Duff, Searcy Co., this state, that Mr. T. E. Reeves, a Justice of the Peace at that place, has written a letter recommending DodcL's Kidney Pilta in which he says: "I think Dodd's Kidney Pills can't be beat for Kidney Trouble, and 1 wish them every success." The local J. P. Mr. E. B. Cox agrees with his brother Justice on this point for he says: "I had a bad case of Kidney Trouble and was not able to do a day's work without great distress. I bought six boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills and after I had used three boxes I was all right. I am as well as ever, and 1 cannot praise Dodd's Kidney. Pills too highly. "I have given the other three boxes to some friends of mine who had found out what it was that had cured me so satisfac torily and quiokly and they all speak highly of Dodd's Kidney Pills." No one disputes this unanimous verdict. Unavoidable Delay. The irate heirs called at the general office of the life insurance company.

Mrs. P. Brunzel, wife of P. Brunzel, stock dealer, residence 3111 Grand Ave., Everett, Wash., says: "For fifteen years I suffered with terrible pain in my back. I experimented with doctors and medi cines but got little if any relief. I actually believe the aching in my back and through the groin became worse. I did not know what it was to enjoy a night's rest and arose in the morning feel ing tired and unre freslied. My suffer ing- sometimes was simply indescribable. Finally, I saw Doan's Kidney Pills ad vertised and got a box. After a few doses I told my husband that I was feeling much better and that the pills were doing me good. When I finished that box I felt like a difEerent woman. I didn't stop at that, though. I con tinued the treatment until I had taken five boxes. There was no recurrence until a week ago, when I began to feel miserable again. I bought another box and three days' treatment restored me to health.
