JUST FOR ONCE. The Climate at Panama Br MARGARET BLOUNT. "May I go with you, CoiiRin Roland? Just for oncT Only think how persis tently you hava refused mf, for a month pant, and nay yes today!" Roland Glenn looked down from the addle on his pretty ward, and nhook his head. "r am going; to ride In the park. Ina. 1 could not take you there, you know." "Why not." "Well you are too young, let us amy, and too too good looking. And you couldn't ride In the park alone With any man except your husband." "And I have none," said Ina, laugh ing, without noticing his deepening color. "What Is more. 1 den t want one. Td rather ride with you, Roland, If you would only consent to take me far rather! I suppose you could net possibly give hp the park for one day, and escort ma over this lovely country road, where there are no Mrs. Grun ays' to Interfere?" She put up her graceful, dark head aside, looking up at him roguishly as 1m asked the question. Seeing that he hesitated, she went on. "Ah, do please! It Is so stupid, riding alone, day after day, with that stolid groom at my horse's heels." "Very well," said Mr. Glenn, bring ing his horse nearer the steps. "Fly and put on your habit, and I will order your horse brought round." Ten minutes later, they rode from the door, passing down the avenue at a walk, but breaking into a trot as soon as they were on the high road, outside the avenue gates. From the window of the breakfast room, Mrs. Hlllyard, the widowed only Ister of Mr. Glenn, watched them cut of sight, with a very serious face. "That girl gets fondor of him every day," she thought, as Bhe went about her morning's work, giving orders to the cook. "And hp is a fcol not to see where it will all end. Well, if he does not tell her about his engagement to Miss Stearns before long, I will!" The offending pair extended their ride for many miles, and did not re turn till the early autumn evening was verging Into dusk. Ina brought a Drightly-blcomlng pair of cheeks to the dinner table, and looked the very embodiment of happiness there. Mr. Glenn looked happy, but also restless and disturbed. Mrs. Hlllyard watched them both somewhat grimly and silent ly, and "bided her time." That evening they were bidden to a grand party not a ball, but a dance on a large scale at the house of Mrs. Stearns, one of Mrs. Hlllyard's early friends. And there It was that a knowledge Of Mr. Glenn's actual position came to Ina, sooner than even Mrs. Hlllyard had intended. They had greeted their hostess, and found a pleasant corner in the least crowded of the rooms, when Ina was claimed by one of her usual "dancing partners" for the waltz Just then in srocress. As they whirled swiftly round the room, Ina caught sight of her guardian at a little distance, waltzing with a atately-looklng lady, apparently flve-and-twenty years of age. She was handsome as .well as stately; she had large, well-opened eyes of -a reddish hazel color, heavy masses of red-brown hair, arranged in the latest fashion, well-cut features, and a remarkably fine complexion, which was owing to Nature or Art? Her friends said Nature; her enemies said Art. "Who is that lady?" asked Ina of ker partner, as they paused to rest. "Don't you know her?" He looked surprised. "Have you never been here kef ore?" "Never. Why do you ask, Mr. Wal era?" "Oh, I beg your pardon! But it teemed odd that Glenn bad never brought you here don't you see? or Mrs. Hlllyard. She stands in the place of a mother to. you, of course, and he must seem as much like father as a guardian, I should think, at his age, for he will never see flve-and thirty again, will he? And so, as you live in his home, and are his ward, and like an only daughter, I wondered why lie had never brought you here before, to Bee his future bride." "His bride! Is he to marry to marry her?" said Ina, lifting her bou quet to her face to hide the sudden pallor which she felt must be over spreading it. She looked at Roland Gionn with all her heart her wrung, aching, suffer ing hoart In her eyes. What was this shallow trtfler beside him thU "society man," who, rejoicing Jn his own verdant youth, dared to remark aneerlngly on Roland's age? "Thirty-five!" Even if that surmise was right, what then? At forty-five at fifty Roland would still be the grandest, the noblest man she knew In outward appearance, as well as in heart, and mind, and soul, Her guardian yes. But standing "In the place of a father to her" oh never could she look upon him in that light! She wished wildly that she could do so.when thus In an instant, by a chance remark made, the veil of years was thrown aside forever, and she was to understand that the feeling with which she had looked upon her guardian was not a reverent friend ahlp as she bad supposed, but a girl' first pure but passionately adoring love! Sho faded the thought courageously when she) was free from her partner. Sut her eyas still followed tha tall figure of Roland Glenn from the qutot corner in which she had esconsed herself. She saw him looking at her, too, now and then, with an anxious, harrasscd expression. And twice she caught the red-brown eyes of Miss Isadora Stearns turned upon her with a fiery gleam of anger In their depths What have I done to vex the proud beauty and heiress, secure in the poss ession of a lover llko Roland?" thought Ina, pitifully, as her head drooped upon her band. And her tired eyes closed for a mo ment, to shut out the lights, the crowd, and the shifting bustle of that gay cir cle, in which Roland, once married, would speedily be engulfed, and lost to her forever. Mrs. Hllllard and Ina returned alone in the carriage that evening. Roland remained, and would probably ont-itay the last of the guests, Mrs. Hllllard observed. They will be married at Christmas, I suppose," she went. on. "And then she will take my place In our home here, and I shall go back to my little cottage and farm in Orange County, where I shall expect to see you, Ina, for a long vIbII, next summer. If you don't marry some merchant prince and go off to Europe before then." Ina made no answer. Nor aid she speak after they reached home, but burled herself In the pages of a mag azine, while Mrs. Hllllard trotted off, uo and down stairs, on her usual tour of inspection of bolts and bars for the niKht. As the lady left the room, Ina dron ed the book, and leaned her head upon her clenched hands. She did not hear the hall door open softly and close, nor see that someone entered the back drawing room from the hall. Her whole soul was in passionate revolt against the pain, whlch(when one Is so young, and so unused to misery) seems so utterly Impossible to bear. Father father! Why did you die and leave me to his care?" aha sobbed, aloud, and when at last the relief of teara came, "O. if I naa died with you or with my mother! If I had never seen him Ina my little darling Ina! you will ha ill if vou a-o on like this!" said a voice beside her a voice all too dan gerously dear. Indeed I thought you looked very ill at the party, ana i came away directly after you, to see what was wrong. What is it, dear? Tell me!" Tho caressing tone, the caressing touch upon bar shoulder, seemed to drive her wild with anger, grier ana shame. Oh. how could you how can you?" she cried, dasfilng his hand away, and springing to her foet. "How little my noor father and mother couia nave known you! Never to tell me that it was cowardly! But now that I know It, to come to me like this! Ob, do you think it is right?" "It would not be II it mignt not, do but it is right!" said Mr. Glenn, Incoherently. "I was cowardly, dear! From the time when you came home from school-1 knew that I loved you, But I was bound, and I dared not speak. Miss Stearns soon saw a difference in me. She saw you, -and grew Jealous and for three months our meetings have been only quarrels and btckerlnga on your account, Ina. To night she was angrier than ever. I could not blame her. You were so lovely, dear, in your pretty ball-dress! She told me that I waa free, and that she would at once marry a wealthy stock-broker who has offered himself to her a dozen times over. Ina, I took my freedom, thanking God silently for my deliver ance from a loveless and unhappy marriage! I come to you, to ask you InBtantly to be my wife. My whole heart is yours, darling. What la your answer?" Ina could not speak. She looked at him, her large eyes shining bright and soft through tears. "Tour father and I were like broth' ers, Ina," Mr. Glenn continued, taking her unresisting hand. "He was ten years my senior, but we were abroad ten years together, and I waa the only one of his friends who knew all about If In marriage to your pretty English mother. I was with him when sho died. You were then only a year old Ina. My sister. Mrs. Hllllard, was then in England, and by my sugges tion brought you back to America, an at the little farm you remained till sent you to school. Your mother trusted you to my care, although I was then ' only a boy in years, and your father gave you to me, Ina, in his dy ing hour. 'If you can love her, Roland when she is a woman, let her be your wife. I shall die happy thinking may be so,' were almost his last words, Shall it be so, darling?" Mrs. Hiiuara, coming lor ina a mo ment later, started back with a little shriek at the tableau she saw on open' lng the door. But Roland, holding bluBhtng, smtl lng, half-weeping Ina firmly beside him, drew bis sinter nearer, whispered the story of the evening in her ear, and sent her, quietly rejoicing (for she had never really liked Miss Stearns), to kiss and bless his bride, Saturday Night 8 The United States senate will have among its members at the next sea slon live former cabinet officers Senators Knox, Teller, Alger, Proctoj and Klalna, It Does Not Deserve the Bad Reputation It Has Long Had. By John Barrett, American Minister to Panama MX) I3AGREEABI.E and unhealthy features of the 1'anama cll X mate have been ridiculously overrated by those who have V studied the situation superficially while passing across the I x Isthmus, or who have desired to create a sensation. Mem " bers of the commission who are familiar with other tropical 042 countries find It much cooler and healthier here than in cor responding latitudes of other Isnds, and my experience con M4)X firms theirs. The Insanitary conditions existing in the days of th old Tanama Canal Company might have characterized (he construction of a similar work in any other portion of the world, and are responsible for many of the torrlble tales that are now told In the American press. As a matter of fact, there has not been during the months of July and Au gust a single uncomfortable night for sleeping, while the average days have not been hotter than those of New York and Washington. There has been hardly a single instance of serious illness among the considerable number of oung men employed here. In work connected with the canal, while the per centage of sickness among the larger group of laborers employed at Culcbra not greater than among those engaged In similar excavating work In the United States. Among the 400 marines located half-way across the isthmus, at Empire, there has not been a single death from local diseases, while the percentage of those in the hospital is not larger than would bo found at the average post In the United States. There has not been a single case of yellow fever for over a month, and there Is less malaria than is often found In sec tions of the United States. The worst portions of the cities of Panama and Colon are much cleaner and more wholesome than the slums of our North American cities, and are far ahead of the average Asiatic city located in the tropics. My corrections of overdrawn criticisms of the Panama climate must not, however, be Interpreted as meaning that there are not unfavorable features here. They exist, as Ihey do in all tropical lands, and of course the conditions of maintaining health and enjoying life are not by any means so favorable as those In the average temperate regions. When the present ablo sanitary corps which has charge of bettering the health conditions In the iHtbraus has car rled out its plans for the Improvement of tho canal strip and the cities of Pan am a and Colon, there Is no reason why the Isthmus should not be one of the healthiest places In the world. 7 Cossacks of Russian Origin c Perhaps Best Described as a War Caste Living in Semi'Tribal Organization. . . r? By David B. MacGowan. T L SOME TRAMPS DO DIE. RAILROAD FREIGHT TRAIN TH CHIEF EXECUTOR. ' HE Cossacks may perhaps be best described as a war caste living in semi-tribal organization. They are, however. In no sense a tribe or tribes, but are mainly of Russian origin with an Intermixture of Mongolian, Tartar and Circassian blood by marriage or adoption. The once famous Little Run- H I slan or Zaporogian Cossacks of the Ukraine, are now rcpre II sented largely In the Kuban army, with which their rem- 'I nant was lncornorated late in the eighteenth century. In all other armies Great Russian blood predominates. Among t'ie non-Russian elements nro Buddhistic Kalmucks and Burlats, Tunguses, Tartars, Bashkirs and Kirghiz. The pagan clement is 12 percent of the Ural army, 15 of tho Trans-Baikal, eight of the Orenburg and seven of the Semi- ryelchensk. The Cossack was a fisherman before he was a Cossack, and he remains a fisherman to this day. Besides fishing, hunting, cattle rais ing and cattle lifting, robbery, piracy and war were formerly considered the only occupations worthy of him. Celibate life prevailed extensively among all the Cossacks. Tho Dons regarded agriculture as tho mortal enemy of their freedom, prohibiting the use of tho plow on pain of death. Conditions have since changed radically, and the Dons differ little In their modo of life from other Russian peasants. The Cossacks, however, do not enjoy a reputa tion for industry, and many of them, notably the Dons, have shared In tho general impoverishment of the rural population. This has diminished their military efficiency, as they are required to supply themselves with horses, uni forms and entire equipment and armament excepting firearms. The most se rious' feature is In the neglect of horse raising. The Uralos form an excep tion. Their fisheries are the source of substantial prosperity, and they not only raise enough horses for themselves, but supply the regular cavalry and artillery with some of their best animals. The government's ability to mobil ize 190,000 Cossacks in war time, or from 250,000 to 300,000 In case of extreme necessity, is dependent upon their possession of an adequate number of ser viceable horses. The military authorities of Russia, however, admit that none of the armies except the Uralese meets this requirement. In fact, none has much more than enough horses to mount their quota of the 60,000 Cos sacks serving in time of peace. The Century, rV-V Married Life iMfW'VA By Florence H. Btrney. 1 ARRIED life la not all made up of sunshine and peace. Shad- Ma ows win sometimes darken tne domestic horizon; the sun I will often hide behind a cloud, which apparently has no all I ver lining. But don't fret over it. 'Make up your mind to be gin anew. Take a clean, new leaf in your book of experience TKTXJ I and try to forget the blots and erasures on the last one. TVVl I Above all things, preserve sacredly the privacies of your 'in married life. No good is gained by Imparting to relative or friend the sor rows and disappointments you endure, because, sooner or later, you are sure to regret making such a confidence. There are few who can be trusted with the secrets of your' dally life; thero are few who will not whisper the story of our marital difficulties to some "dear, confidential friend," and soon your private affairs will be freely dis cussed by all your acquaintances, and commnted upon without stint, furnishing food for gossip over many a tea table. Build your own quiet world, not allow ing your dearest earthly friend to be the confidant of aught that concerns your domestic peace. Let moments of alienation, if they occur--and they often do be heeded at once. Never let the sun go down seeing you at variance with each other. Women cling to men, lean upon them for protection, care and love. If a man wt d have a woman do him homage, be niunt be manly In every sense; a true gentleman, ready at all times to treat his wife's wishes with deference and respect, because she is a woman. Such deportment, with noble principles, a good mind, energy and Industry, will win any woman in the laud who is worth winning. Women all have their faults, and sometimes they are very provoking ones. But with certain virtues are always coupled certain disagreeable characteris tics, and we must make up our minds to accept the bitter with the sweet. For instance, every husband in the land desires a cleanly, comfortable, well-arranged abode, but he seldom thinks to pralso his wife for her excellent regula tion of tho household machinery; and if she requests him, on entering, to use the doormat, or footscraper, be is apt to give vent to an Impatient expression. But what a mortification it would be to blm if bis bouse were in such a atate of dust and disorder as to cause unkind remarks from the neighbors. It is a poor return when a wife has made everything bright and fresh, to aeo hor husband unwilling to take a little pains to keep it so, or hear him ob ject with forcible language to being reminded of those small points which all men are apt to forget occasionally. Don't worry about feminine extravagance and feminine untruth, young man. Be true to your wife, love ber sincerely, and frequently declare your at faction, and gratification will auraly tend to keep her a loyal, devoted wife. N. T. Weekly. Many Hobos Killed Accidentally Fifty Percent of Thesa Wanderere With Their Boots On The Barrel House Victims Most Pitiful. Where Is tho tramp of yester yenr? It Is nearlng the time when an in teresting possibility of tho cennus bureau might be tried out. What has happened to the tramp crop which was gathered In tho great cities with the approach of warm weather and scattered to the four winds, only to return with the migration of the birds? How many of the population "hit ting the pike" are dead since the season opened? How many were found by the demands of the western harvesters and thrashers? How many are seeking out their old metropolitan haunts, to lie In a state of seml-hlber-nation till spring? In the observation of the police and of the coroners' offices throughout the country, the tramp family as a risk runs chances thnt few occupations of Industry threaten to the toller. It Is more dangerous to seek the byways of the Idler than to harness up to the machinery of toll. Fifty percent of these roadsters die accidental deaths of one kind or another; 20 percent die of exposuro and privation; 10 percent are found dead In barrel houses, an other 10 percent die In almshouses, while another 10 percent are unac counted for. In accidental deaths the railroad freight train Is of first magnitude. More tramps die under tho wheels or In tho shock of collision, or from a trnin jumping the rails at a switch than from any other one cause. There Is seldom a collision Involving a through freight in a general smashup that does not number a tramp victim. Ho la universal as a corpse. It is rare that he Is reported among the Injured. "The reason for this Is that he near ly always has to take the dangerous position on a train," explained an old railroad mnn. "Nearly every tramp that goes out of Chicago or comes Into It rides on ia bumperB of a freight train or on the trucks of tho pas senger. In cither position a wreck of any magnitude means death to htm, "It Is not necessary always to have the wreck, either. Sometimes there in ice on the bumpers, and there are times when tho tramp on the truck goes to sleep, as we have had reason to suspect. A fall In either case means death a'.most without a ques tion. In times past trainmen who had been worried by theso Insistent dead heads would throw them off a train with little compunction. It is a dan gerous business, however, for cases have been taken to the higher courts and decisions rendered that a train must be stopped and the tramp put off with all the consideration that would be due a passenger." Roads Expect His Death. As Indicating just how common Is the tramp funeral In connection with railroading the railroads all over the country in their rules and regulations deal with blm as a possible corpso on their hands. One of the great roads out of Chicago has this, to say of the genus as it infests rolling stock and the company's right of way: "If any tramps are killed or injured In stealing rides on trains or In walk lng on the tracks turn them over to the town authorities. We pay nearly 12.000,000 a year as taxes, and a.re just aa much entitled to have protec tion as are individuals, and to have persons who are trespassers and who are injured through their own neg ligence taken care' of by the town or county. But if the authorities will not take care of them don't let them lie in the streets take care of them un til some proper arrangement for their care can be made." Even where a tramp is killed on the road between stations this company instructs Its men to pick up the body, regardless of the superstitions about the coroner, and take the body to the nearest station, only if possible not to take It out of the county. Second to the accidental deaths on the rail are the accidents due to the burning of barns and outhouses in which tramps who smoke take shelter, In the courso of a year scores of these peripatetic ones go to sleep In tho hay of a barn loft and their ashes are sort' ed out in the morning. Nothing will alarm a farmer more than to discover that tramps have been; sleeping in distant barn or crib. He is not afraid of possible thefts; his fear is of the tramp s matches and the tramp s pipe, In many sections of the country, too, In the dry seasons, the cam p fir o by the roadway menaces the whole drought-stricken territory. Exposure kills more tramps than ordinarily Is suspected. Many of these men are addicted to excessive use of whisky or of alcohol In some othe form, and for years the medical frat ernity nas recognized that the man who drinks to excess has few chances against pneumonia when it has at tacked blm. The late Dr. N. S. Davis nestor of physicians In Chicago, used to say that when a drunkard got pneu monia bis kinsmen might as well order the coffin. The same observation bold doubly true of the tramp who has It for the reason that he has small op portunity to protect himself from the weather while be is ill. Thieving Tramps 8hot Not a few of these wayfarers are killed In their prowllngs through the country. They are tempted to make levies upon hen roosts and even pi pens, and the farmer In many sections occasionally reacbea for hla double barreled gun and injure the fellow to the extent of bringing about gangrene aad death by that means. The tramp's bad blood and lack ot cleanliness gen erally predispose blm to this poison of the gunshot Not Infrequently, of course, the heavy shot In the gun leaves the corpse where It fell. Again, here the man Is injured and trailed down, he may become a candidate for death in priBon, as many courts throughout the country have an Idea that state's prison for a criminally disposed tramp Is much the cheapest disposition of the man for life. The barrel houses victim from the (ramp family Is ono o fthe most pitiful of pcctarles connected with the tramp death roll. The lowest rung In the ladder of life Is reached by this miser, able specimen of manhood, who finds his death in the low, dark, reeking back rooms of the barrel house "Jolnt. There, when death has come In unex pectedly to the keeper of the place, the victim most frequently has fallen out of his chair, to be found In the morning, crumpled, stiff and stark on the floor the death that one would spare a dog If he could. Within a few years a new menaoe has come to the tramp In the roadway It is the automobile built for speed ing. In the last year a number ot tramps have died under tho wheels ol these fliers over the country rbnds robably they will never approach the menace that the railroad train Is, but they are worth the consideration of the "profession." As nobody has ever been credited with seeing the proverbial "dead mule," so nobody s suspected of ever having seen a reformed tramp. But there are stories from the wheat coun try and from the cow country of these fellows "shanghaied" from through freight trains at water stations and harnessed to the reaper or to the "chaps" and the saddle, finally to come to the spirit of labor, to adopt its philosophy, and at last to die respected citizens ot a community. But these examples are few. "Once tramp, always a tramp." Chisago Tribune. usrnnsrAftoa. Q tt. MsDOaALM. ATTOnSFT AT LAW.

RSEflBBI I YOUNG Projected, Financed, Built and Oper ated by North Dakota Wheat Growers. The movement of crops was former ly a problem, but railways and trolley lines almost to the fiirmeia' doors now provide transportation, writes Isauc V. Marcosson in tho World's Work. But difllcu'.tlc.i arose, such as con fronted tho wheat growers of Kamscy county, North Dakota. These farmers hauled their grain often a distance of 26 miles to Devil's Lake, the county Beat, through which the Great Northern Railway passed. It kept the farmers hauling grain all winter. They asked Mr. James J. Hill, president of the Great Northern railroad, to build a branch line from Devil's Lake up through their section. Mr. Hill Bald he couWl not build. Six of the largest farmers met at a schoolhouse. Ono of them was Mr. Joseph Kelley, who owned 900 acres of land, an.d who hauled his wheat 15 miles to Devil s Lake. Mr. Kcllcy sold, "If tho GYeat Northern won't build, we will build." And the farm ers built a railroad 25 miles long. They asked every farmer who haul ed grain to Devil's lake to subscribe. Some subscribed $25; others, $500. They raised 00,u00. They sent a farmer to Duluth to buy ties, and an other to St. Paul to buy old rails. A land-promoter was building a small branch line out ot Devil's lake to tho south, nnd they got him to survey the road. They hired section-bands to lay the track. But they needed more money. They bought land along the line and laid out three towns, sold the lots, and used the money to buy an old engine, a day-coach, and four box cars from the Great Northern railway. ' Then the road was started. It will stop for any farmer ' at any place. Last year, the road made Its expenses; it hauled 60,000 bushels of wheat. This year, with the railroad at band, the farmers planted more wheat, and tbo road will haul 2,000,000 bushels. I went to Starkweather, the largest town laid out by the farmers on tholr road. Two years ago, the site was a flax-field. I found it a bustling place, with 30 stores and houses, 400 peo ple, a school-house that cost $10,000, three elevators with a capacity of 250,0110 bushels, three banks, a news paper, and a church. At the other two towns, which a year ago were farm lots, I found grain elevators, schools aud stores. Hero la what these farmers had dono when thoy built their railroad; established three towns, Increased the price of land along the way 75 percent, Increased the yield of wheat, built schools, established telephones. Thoy made a wholo community richer aid Independent.
