I camped one night near another crew of people who were (bound for some place in ti e far west. . They had everything right along with them cows, dogs, chick ens, lean" horses and eJbout a four story house uU of unwashed youngsters. It was not (far IhadK of here that 1 met uniy first return voyager. He and his tired-looking family had been out: in Arkansas, got their systems .Cull of malaria, and (homesickness, and were on the back trail for the old nork in the mountains of Tennessee. He "in formed me that there were two f errie across the Father of Waters,, engaging in a war, and if I twould watch my.p's and q's I could probalbly get free fer riage. I told him it would (be Just like those fellows to patch irp their fight (before I get there. During the last six mliles of travel east of the river I rode through the heaviest fog I ever saw. It was so dense that I very nearly had several colliidons with teams. Looking ahead I could see nothing (but a (blank white wall, apparently about twenty feet distant. Suddenly a team or horse man would burst into view, their heads so near me that there was ibarely time to turn out. This was considerably emlbarraslng when we met in a narrow bit of roadway. (But when I arrived at the river (bank, the fog was very light, and I made inquiry BJbout the ferries. (Sure enough, there was peace, and I had the satisfaction of paying my way over, like any other proud American citizen. I landed on Missouri soil, in the old river town called Cape Girar deau (pronounced Oirardo). Where they got an excuse for the Cape Idea, is more than I could make out J It Is a mice town, (but I told them) I was sor ry I couldn't tarry long. The whoje of the broad state of the Pukes lay before me, and I was anxious to begin its measurement. I started' very glibly out on a stretch of . turnpike, which lasted aibout ten miles. Then passing through Jackson, I struck a southeast erly course toward a town called Mar ble Hi LI. I encountered some hiHs and hollows that imade one think the own was rightly named. Here I teamed the pleasing news that 1 had missed the 'best route. My informant said I should have gone about twenty miles north, on a straighter road, the most frequented line across the state. But it (was too late now, even to '"cry over spilled milk," so I "proceeded to plod on. I was told to look out for toad roads, which information was not nec essary. I found that out. I do think I passed over aibout the most flinty road I ever saw, not even excepting my travel in the mountains. These roads were so rocky that 4t seemed to me the Kvheela did not touch soil for hours at a time. The hills were steep, too, and the stones we're sharp the kind that cut shoes and wagon tires into tatters. At Greenville; I was told I must go further southwest, as that was the best road. I pity the poor misguided mor tal (who has to go :by the other one. I wanted some one to pity me for the route i was on. There weTe times when I was sure the road had run out. fit actually seemed to disappear. It was so dim that it iwould not be visible to a court of inquiry. But T blundered along, all the while assuring myself that I was williing to go on oath that I was on the rwronig track; if that dim (way over hill and dale could ibe called a track. .Arriving in a small valley, wide enough" for a iarmi, I camped' one night after dark,- near the house of a farmer who was lord of all he survey ed. " After retiring I heard the rattle of other wagons coming over the atomy road. After they stopped I looked out to inquire. I hadns't seen a traveler-for days. Judge of my surprise when they told one they had heard! of me nearly at week before, and had (been al the intervening time trying to catch me. r A tape worm efgbteen feet loner at least came on tli scene after my taking two CASCARETS.

STEJPHENS THE NEW BRITISH LOAN Enbscf ! for or Nptmi Timon Ovr Th TSnils 'l'Nlncrme ol tlai . Income Tnx Sharply Crttief!. London, April 23. Applications fo;? the new war loan continue to pour into the Bank of England. The subscribers to-day, though numerous were mostly small investors. It is estimated that the loan was subscribed for six or seven times over and it is expected the list will be closed to-morrow, as it is not desired to lock up too much money. In the House of Commons to-day va rious members sharply criticised the budget's increase of the income tax and the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Sir Michael Hicks-Beach, replied thai more money must be raised somehow and none of the objectors suggested a better way. He hoped that the addition-, al taxation might bring home to the country the virtues of economy. The Income tax resolution was adopted by 363 to 88 votes.

Short and Morris Meyer wera taken before the grand jury again to-day, that body considering the charge against Patrick for causing the death of William M. Rice.

After the jury had adjourned for the day, it was said an order had been given for the presentation of an indictment against Patrick on the charga that he caused Rice's death, and fwr in dictments against Short and Meyer on charges of forgery in having, as alleged by the prosecution, signed their names as witnesses to a will bearing the signature of William M.

DREYFUS' OWN STOftY. A powerful chapter from one. of the most remarkable of reCordfed human experiences, appears ini Mcdure's Mag azine for MayCaptain Alfred Drey fus' s Own Story of his arrest, degrada tion and transportation to Devil's Isle. To this story is added a portion of the Diary kept (by Dreyfus on the island; for his wiife, and referred to so often and so mysteriously in the Rennes trial, hut never made public. A more intense and convincing ex pression of human agony than that found in these fragments is inconceiv able. From first to last it. is evident that the sufferer Is (bewildered and (maddened by what has befallen him and that all which keeps him from in sanity or death is his determination to iradYiro that iRTa impn.aAr'iii-n.er nrp mwpr.
