From the EvenlnB News Detroit Mich
Mrs. John Tancy of 130 (taker Street
Detroit Michigan is one of thoc women
who always know just what to lo in all
trouble and sickness. One that is a mother
lo those in. distress. To a reporter she aaid;
'l am the mother of ton children and have
raised eight of them. Scleral years ago
wethad a serious tune with my daughter
-which liegan when she was about sixteen
ears old. She did not have any serious ill-
ness but seemed to gradually waste away.
Having never had consumption in our fam-
ily as we come of good old Irish and Scotch
Ttock we did not think it was that. Our
doctor called the disease by an old name
winch I afterward learned meant Jack of
'blood.
"It is impossible to describe the feeling
John and I had as we noticed our daughter
slowly passing away from us. We finally
found however a medicine that seemed to
help her and from the first we noticed a
decided change for the bettor and after
three months' treatment her health was so
greatly improved you would not have recog-
nicd her. She gained in tles.li rapidly and
was soon in perfect .health. The medicine
used was Dr. Williams' l'ink Pills for Palo
Peoplc.1 have always kept these pills in the
house since and have recommended them to
many people. I have told mothers about
them and they have-effected some wonderful
cures.
"Every mother in this land should keep
these pills in the house as they are good for
many ailments particularly those arising
from impoverished or diseased blood and
weakened nerve force."

"I know what I am talking about" re-
marked n member of congress "when I say
that a congressman has tioublcs of his own.
It's a fine thing to be a statesman nnd show
up in the national parade 6f gieatncxsat the
capital but there's a good ileal more to it
tluui that. And one of the things that is
hardest to bear is what they say about us.
Why a lady can't come up hcrc'and ak to
see a member that there aren't half a dozen
people to wink and shake the head and a
lot .more of the same to make him wish all
the women were in hades. Of course there
is some ground among us for remarks just
as there is among preachers and doctors
and hod carriers and verj body else human
and I know a woman or two who find their
chief delight in trying to involve congress-
men and other officials in any kind of n flir-
tation that comes handy. Ihey are iirctty
and persuasive and before a man tenons
what he is about he is down in the senate
restaurant paying for a lunch and listening
to some kind of a tale of woe.
"But they miss it now and then nnd I
am glad to note an instance which occuircd
only a day or two ago. A member from a
northern state had been invited to call at the
lady's hotel the next day and she had asked
him to let her know if he could come. He
wrote saying among other thingi: 'To-
morrow madam. I nope to se the loeliest
woman in the whole world.' Naturally she
was pleased and told all the people around
the hotel alwut it. The next day he did not
appear and the next she saw him at the
capitol and asked him what he meant by
ti eating her so.
" 'What did I do?' he asked innocently.
"'You said ou were coming to see me
ihehaid Mushing at the remembrance of his
words.
" 'I think not.
'"Indeed ou did.' she insisted. 'You
iid you would see the loveliest woman in
the world' "and shelilushefl again.
" 'Ohj I beg your pardon' he said smiling
'I meant my wife. She just nrritcd jester
day.' "Washington Star.

A young woman whose home is in St
Paul spent a few days in Washington the
vuest of a congressional family from New
Kngland. She had just returned from a
ix months' tour of hurope and the travel-
ing bag she carried was plastered over with
steamer labels und stamps of half the
famous hotels on the continent. She is uoi
an ostentatious person by any means the
Ht. Paul girl but she certainly did set great
store by that decorated bag and g.i?ed with
pride on its collection of labels. Her charm
of manner and the liberality of her tips
too perhaps completely won the heart of
the '.rim New' Kngland housemaid of the
congressional family. On the morning of the
guest's departure for St. Paul the maid ap
peared at the door of her room wreathed
with smiles and holding the traveling bag
in her hand.
"Here's your valise mi is" she said glee-
fully. " had some trouble with it and it
took quite a little soaking; but I knew you
wouldn't want to start off with all those
tags pasted all over it. 1 got 'em all off for
you and the valise just looks brand new."
And if you want to see a striking example
of rage too deep for speech you have only
to speak of New Kngland neatness in the
presence of one young woman from St.
Paul. Washington Post.

The inllkmnn left a can of milk on the
front crnnda nnd drove on to the next
house In the street. The teciiinn came
r.lonp half nn hour later looked curious-
ly nt the closed door ns he unfastened
tho hooks from a block of lec nnd
rnpped loudly on the step but no one
came to answer liiscnll.
An hour later ft young man sleeping
in the front room downstairs nwokc
suddenly nnd sat up In bed. He vtas
astonished to note that the sunlight on
the carpet extended from the window
far into the room indicating that the
sun had risen abovo tho tall buildings
across the street lie felt a strange
heaviness in his. bead and n desire to lie
down again but he shook off the feel-
ing mill rose nnd began to dress.
What could be the matter? The lit-
tle clock on his dressing rase pointed
to ten. What bad caused him to oxer-
sleep? Why had Mr. Strong not waked
him as usual? The old ninii was always
up with the sun. and had uecr allowed
-him to sleep later than eight.
The young man buriledly put on his
trousers thrust his feet Into his slip-
pers ant drew aside- tlie porticiro that
hung between bis room und his uncle's.
Strong's bed was in the righthand
corner of the room and Whldby could
see the back pait of his head and one
side of his gtny whiskers.
Whldby called to him softly but
Strong did not stir. Whldby called
again and stamped bis foot but still
the old man remained motionless.
"That's queer." murmured Whldby
as he approached the bed. Stirong's face
waa towards the window: hie eyes were
open: a ghastly smile was on his face.
He was dead. Whldby saw that by the
awful pallor of his face which made
each hair of the beard stand out as if
under a magnifying glass. For a mo-
ment Whldby stood ns If turned to
stone; then he drew down the sheet
which had been drawn up cIocly under
the old man's chin and snw the long
deep gash in the throat and the dark
clots of the blood which hndsoakexl info
the mattress.
Whldby was strangely calm. In an
instant he had decided on a course of
action. He stepped to the telephone
across the room and looked over the
directory; then ho rang and held the
rcceher to his car.
"Hello." he said "that's the central
office isn't it? Well all right; one
f.penty-sN on four eighty-two please."
"Well what is it?" presently came
from the telephone.
"Is that K)llce headquarters?"
"Yes."
"I am Alfred Whldby. 278 Leightou
avenue. A horrible thing has occurred
here during the night. I lme just dis-
co ercd that my uncle Mr. Strong
Iiichnrd N. Strong the banker has
been murdered. Come and attend to
It."
There was a silence broken by n low
indistinct murmuring ns if people were
talking at the other end of the wiire;
then the reply came;
"All right; as soon as we can get
there."
Then Whidby hung up the rcceher
nnd rang the bell. He went back into
his room put on his shirt collar and
necktie and brushed his hair. His
head still felt heavy nnd ached a little.
The electric cars were whirring past the
house nnd a blind man was playing an
accordion n few doors away. Tlicr?
was a crunching step on the grneled
walk near his window. Whldby raised
tho sash and looked out. It was Mat-
thews the gai doner.
Seeing Whldby ho touched his hat
sioped. and asked after Mr. Strong.
Whldby mndc no reply but sntdown ou
the window-sill and stared at the old
mnn. Ho was wondering If the police
would prefer for him to keep the news
from the gardener. It was the look of
slow astonishment coming into Mat-
thews' eyes that made him decide what
to say.
"Matthews" ho said 'something has
happened; I can tell you that much
but that Is all. I lirie telephoned the
police; you'd better not come in till
they get here. If I were you I'd go 011
with my work; the rose bushes near the
fountain need trimming."
Matthews stared and started to speak
but Whldby withdrew sat down on the
side of his bed and tried to collect his
thoughts. Suddenly he was roused by
a sharp ring nt the door bell. Wliid-
by's heart sank and he was'all In n.
quiver but he rose calmly and wont to
the door. It was n boy with the morn-
ing paper. He held nlso a bill in his
hand nnd wanted to collect the money
due to him for delhcrlng the paper for
the mouth past but Whldby sent him
nway and stood for several minutes in
tho doorway watching the crowd pass
ing in the street. Then lie closed the
door and went into his uncle's room
nnd walked restlessly to and fro at the
foot of the bed. Suddenly he stopped
at the telephone and rang the bell.
"Onr seventy-five on four eighty-two
please" he said
"Hello there" was tho reply.
"Well?" said Whidby.
"You are one seventy-six instead of
one seveuty-llve. nren'fcyou?"
"Yes. Did I say one seventy-five? I
meant one seventy-six."
"All right; there you are Mr. Whld-
by." "Wlfldby!" thought tho joungman.
"I wondei how he knew my name Ah
ho must have overheard me speaking to
0 police."
U'he bell rang
"Hello." said Whldby. "Is that police
headquarters?"
"Yes. What Is it?"

"I telephoned you about the murder
up here. Aren't you going to send some
one to sec about it?"
"That was only n few minutes ago
Mr. Whldby nnd it is over two miles
dipt. Welsh has just left with Mr.
Minard Hendricks tho famous New-
York detective vviho hnppciu to be in
town."
"Ah I see." said Whidby; "the time
drags with me you know. I am all
alone."
"J understand. Hood-by."
"fiood-bj."
The young man turned nnd walked
t mind the bed for another look at
Strong's face. Surely he thought that
weird smile nnd the twinkle in the (lend
man's eyes were the most remarkable
things ever connected with a murder
ease. He could not bear to look at the
face so he went into his own room. Ha
wondered what had caused him to over-
sleep. He went to his bed and smelt
the pillows' to n'c If he could detect
traces of chloroform. He had decided
that he could not have been drugged
when the bell of a passing car caught
his car. He knew that llie car had
stopped In front of the house by the
whirring chromatic sound ns it start-
ed on again. Then he heard steps mi
the veranda nnd went to the door.
CHAPTER II.
It was Capt Welsh the chief of po-
lice and Mr. Minard Hendricks the de-
tective from New York. Tho latter
scarcely nodded when he was intro-
duced to Whldby. Him-harp gray eyes
under massive shaggy brows rested on
thekey w hleh he had justhcard Whldby
turn In the lock.
"Has no one been out .tit this door
this morning?" he asked abruptly.
"No" stammered Whldby "yes; that
is I came to answer the ring of a nevvs-
boy a moment ago."
"And joti locked the door after he
left?"
"Yes."
'Why did jou do it?" The detective's
cytu were roving about the veranda hall
nnd yard but Ills tone sounded sharp
and to the point. Whldby felt that he
was waiting for a reply.
"I don't know" replied the young
man helplessly. "I suppose I was ex-

cited and it seemed to me that it would
be best to keep curious people out till
jou came."
"Certainly" replied dipt. Welsh; but
tnc detective went on with a frown:
"Was the door unlocked when you
opened it for the newsboy?"
"I I'm nfinid I can't lemeniber" an-
swered Whidby.
"That is unfortunate" said Hendricks.
"Where is the body?"
"Ibis way" replied Whidby. "The
second door on the Wght."
The detective opened the door and
the others followed him to the bed.
He looked long and silently at the face
of the dead man; then he said: "Has
anyone touched this shcetsincc you dis-
covered the murder?"
"I drew it down to see where he was
wounded. If I had thoughts "
"No matter" replied the detective
and he lifted the sheet and examined the
ga.sh. Then he replaced it carefully
and atked: "How was the sheet ar-
ranged when you found him?"
"Just as itis now I think" said Whld-
by. "Just a3 if the murderer hUd re-
placed It with both hands one on each
side ns you did."
"Stand where you are" Heudrick3
suddenly ordered. He raised the window-shade
went down ou his hands and
knees and mode a minute examination
of the carpet. Then he rose and sur-
eyed the 1 nam. "Where did you leep?"
he asked
Whldby pointed to the portiere. "In
that room."
The detective drew the heavy cur-
iaius aside.
"You rqmc througli here this room-
ing?" ho asked.
"Yes."
Hendricks looked at Whidby's bed.
"Slept later than usual this morning
eh?" he asked.
"Yes; I don't know what was the
matter with me. I felt hcuvy-headed
ard dizzy when I nwoke."
Capt Welsh nodd?d knowingly but
said nothing.
"You telepboned ns toon as you dis-
covered the body?" Hendricks went on.
i 'juiy i
"Yes."
"Whcro do you get your meals?"
"Here usually; but to-day the cook
is away on Jcavo of absence. Uncle nnd
1 were going over to tho IJandolph the
restaurant on the corner for our mcah
till she returned."
"Hove you cutcn nuy thing this uiorn
ing?"
"No."
"Well you'd better go; we'll look
nfter everything nnd telephone the cor-
oner." "AH right" replied Whldby. Ilu
turned to the wash-stand and tilled a
basin from a pitcher of watct. "In
my e5Tcltcment 1 forgot to wash my
face and hands."
"Stop!" cried Hendilcks and he
caught Whldbj 'sarin as his hands were
almost in the water. "Pardon me. but
you've stained your fingers somehow."
Tho young mnn stared nt his right
hand In surpiise. There was a faint red
smudge on the thumb and lingers.
"Why" he said "I don't seo how it
could have got there unless I won-
der if" Whldby turned quickly into
tho other room and bent over Strong's
IhuI. "Ah!" he cried to the others.
"See! 1 must have got It from the cor-
ner of the sheet when 1 put it back;
you sec there is blood on the under
side."
Tho defective had followed Whldby
no further than the portiere where ho
stood indifferently vvutchlng the jouug
man's movements.
"Yes fioni the sheet or this curtain"
he replied pointing to an almost in-
v Isiblc spot of blood on the portiere.
"Then tho fellow must have been In
my room too" said Whidby wonder-
ingly. "And just nfter the deed was dune"
lleiiidrlcks remarked.
The young mnn stared nt the detect-
ive curiously as he returned to the
wnshstand nnd took oil his coat.
"Look" he eiicd to him "here Is some
6f It on my cuff."
"I noticed that" replied the detect-
ive. "It is a drop of blood. Pel haps
you had better detach the cufT and give
it to mc. You did not sleep in that
shirt?"
"No." Whidby irnvo him the cufT.
"Where Jid you lay the shirt last
night w hen j ou took it oil?"
"On thnt. chair near my lied" an-
swered Whidby.
"That is all jou can do for us" said
Hendricks. "You'd better go to break-
fast." Whldby ciossed the street and en-
tered the. restaurunt on the corner lie
took n seat at the table farthest from
the door and ordered some eggs coffee
rolls nnd butter; but be found Hint he
had no appetite and he drank hlscor-"
fee when it was so hot that it burnt
his lips. Then he. bought:! newspaper
and sat for ten minutes gazing at It ab-
sently. On his return home he found the yard
filled with a erovvd of curious people.
Some of them stood on the veranda
near the windows. The door was closed.
Whldby tried the knob but it was
looked. Turning he saw Matthews com-
ing rquud the corner of the house.
"dipt. Welsh asked me to send you In
nt the rear door" the man said.
"They're goln' to hold n. Inquest on 'lm.'
Whidby followed the gardener Into
this house. How he disliked to see the
body again and tho strange smile on
tho dead man's face! Hut there was no
help for It. He must do what he could
towards bringing tho criminal to jus-
tice. The atmosphere of Strong's room w ns
so close that Whldby could hardly
breathe and tho peifumu from thecou-
servatory sickened him. The coroner
and his jury had arrived. Indeed they
sdeined to be waiting for him. He sat
down near a window. He wondered
what they would ask him and If he
could make intelligent replies.
The coroner opened the proceedings
with a few words (o the jury and Whid-
by thought they staled at him furtively
whcnelcr his name was mentioned.
Then his testimony was called for und
Whldby felt that he was repeating word
for word the account he had given Hen-
dricks a short while lefore.
The detective rose next and told in
careful detail how the police had been
called to the telephone by Whidby and
first informed of the murder; how the
young man bad met him and Velsh at
the door and what was said about
whether tho doorwas locked. He spoke
of the blood slain on Whidby's hand
and produced the cull' with the drop of
blood ou it. It was his opinion lie said
that the cufT could not have been worn
ut the time It received the drop nor for
at least half an hour afterwards foi
ns the jury could see the blood had
dried in such a shape as to prove (iini
it had remained motionless foi some
time. Mr. Whidby hud said that the
shirt with tho cult attached bad Iain of
acliaii near his bed all night
Then the coroner called forWhiuty's
nightshirt and the jury passed it. from
one to the other nnd examined it care-
fully. At that moment Whidby rose to
call attention to the- blood on the por-
tiere and on the corner of tho sheet
which he thought Hendricks and Capt.
Welch hod forgotten to mention but
the coroner orderid him rather coldly
to sit down.
Matthe.ws was next called but lie
could testify to nothing except that he
slept in the cottnge behind the house
and had not' waked during the night.
Then the coroner requested Whldby
and Matthews to leave tho room nnd
Whidby went into the library across tho
hall nnd ciosul tho door behind him.

The sugar crop of the world amounts
In n normal year to about S0t)000 tons
nt which the larger part about 450000(1
tons comes from beets and the balance
.1500000 toiiR from sugarcane. Of the
latter the largest proportion conies
from the West Indies nnd n large
amount from the Island of Jnrn.
Among the countries producing beet
sugar Oernian comes first with about
one-third of the world's crop; then Aus-
tria with about ns much and then
Prance Ilussla and llclglum and Hol-
land together with substantially the
same quantity.
In respect of (he production of beet
sugar in tho United States there Inn
been a vast Increase since the establish-
ment of the MeKlnley tnrlff In 180(1.
The year previous the American prod-
uct was 2.S00 tons. Two years Inter it
was 12000 tons. Pouryears later It was
20000 tons bast year It was 43000 fons
and the product is on the Increase. The
MeKlnley tarllf established between
Julj 1 1891 and July 1 100.'. c bounty
to be paid by the United States govern-
ment to sugar producers with n view of
stimulating the industry nnd compen-
'iitlng those engaged In it for the
ehnnges made In the dutj upon import-
ed sugnr.
Among scientists the opinion has
been general that 11 moderate amount (it
sugar like a moderate amount of salt
should enter Into the dletnry of the
people of each nation; but it Is only
when the figures of the consumption of
sugar are examined that It Is seen that
the quantity consumed varies radically
and it Is a curious fact that In those
countries In which the maritime Rplril
the spirit of navigation commerce
travel and colonization Is strong
there is a very considerable consump-
tion of ugnr per capita whereas ill
those countries in which these quali-
ties are not predominant among the
habttants the consumption is fiimlli
In Kngland first among the uiarltliiii'
nations of the world the eonsuniptlidf
of sugar is SO pounds a jenr for cacn
iiihnbitnut. in Denmark it is 15ilu
Holland .11 in Vianec 30 and in Norway
and Sweden 25 whereas In Itusstn It U
only 10 In Italy" In Turkey 7 in Oieece
0 and in Servl.i 4. The consumption
of sugar seems to have very little con
uectioii with or relation to the produc-
tion of sugar for in Austria the hiigar
product of which is large the average
consumption is only 11) poundH while
111 Switzerland hi which there Is no pro-
duction to speak of. It is 41. And an-
other curious phase of the matter Is
that there is n great disparity In the
nitisumption of sugar in th'e two tea
drinking countries Kngland nnd Ilus-
sla. The large amount of sugnr con-
sumed in Prance is attributed 111 part
to the fact that the French confection-
ers and (nndymakers and nunc espe-
cially those doing business In the cit
of Paris use in their trade enormous
quantities of sugnr In a 3 cur adding

A SAILOR PRINCE.
Henry nf I'riissln nnd III Mlniplli'lly
nf Cliiirneler.
It would be vviong to judge the char-
acter of Prince 'Henry of Prussia frofi
the astounding speeches which he mi-
ll essed to his brother the kaiser on
taking his departure from (Jermnnj for
China. In the first place there Is al-
ways a tendency to sentimentality in
the Clerman character which Is entlioly
absent in that of the Kuglish-speakiup
races and secondlj the utterances of
Prince Henry and of the kaiser have
been willfully distorted mid exagger-
ated in translation.
One Instance will sufllcc. The kniser
In speaking of his count rj men made use
of the expression "the German Mi-
chael" "Michael" being the gen
eric slang name for the " North
German just in the same way as
"Pat" Is the kindly nickname of every
Irishman or "Tommy Atkins" that of
every Knglish soldier. In Knglish and
American nevvspapets however this
has been rendered Just ns if theempeior
had apostrophized his sailor brother as
the Archangel Michael.
Prince Henry is the most simple-
niliidid and upaffected of princes in or-
dinary life and no better illustration
of this could be afforded than by a
glance at the cabins devoted to his use
on board the iinuelad Dciitschland
which arc to be Ills home for the next
few months. The are distinguished
by an entire absence of splendor. The
sleeping cabin in particular Is very sim
ply furnished. The bed and chairs are
ship furniture well worn b.v service.
The dressing table is of ordinary vjhite
wood as Is the furniture of the dining-
room and saloon. In fact in tlie bed-
room there Is nothing to suggest the
rank of the oflleer unless It be the mon-
ograms on the backs of the hnlrbrushes.
On the walls hang portraits of the
prince's relatives while a particularly
conspicuous position is accorded to a
series of caricatures of the prince
which while mirth-provoking nre cer-
tainly not flattering. The prince on
board is surrounded by none of thnt red
tape and formality which one is accus-

A man in Philadelphia named Lull-
man occupied n house that was owned
by a gas company. The affairs of the
company passed into the hands of the
city and with it the house; but no rec-
ord seems to have been made of the lat-
ter fact. The company of course ceased
to collect the rent and the city did r.ot
call for It; and so Luliman who had ft
cigur store and barber shop on the first
floor waited ten years for somebody to
come and collect the cosh made his own
repairs und let business slip awny
from him on account of staying there
while the locullty grew more and more
out of the way. He lias now been com-
pelled to move out and his wife whose
methods of solace seem to be the same
as were those of Job's less patient half
bitterly upbraids him. She claims that
he disregnided her advice and becain'
poor just for tlie sake of getting his
rent free. Every Where.
