The revenue cut ter McCulloeh has arrived here from Kodiak with the news that conditions there are much improved and that there is no confirmation of the re ports of heavy loss of life on the mainland. All the inhabitants of Katmai, a mainland village near the volcano, are safe and have been tak en to Afgonak. The only fatalities so far as known were those of a wom an and a baby who were ill before the eruption and probably would have succumbed in a short time anyway. Heavy rains followed by drought have caked the layer of ashes which covers the land. The natives are kill ing and salting their stock, as there Is no grass left for them. The water is undrinkable.

Here are a few important ones. First, it has an even temperature at all times. Second, it saves time and labor by not having to run to the stove every few minutes.. Lastly, it does away with that roaring hot fire that is necessary with the old way. Consult us now about the cost of using electricity. Good & Danford 29 East Main 0$0400t0t0$00$0$0$04000 y Reduced to an Absurdity o A Lady's Part In an Affair of Honor By ISABEL MORTON f 000"$0000000J)0'J)OtO0 One afternoon toward the close of the seventeenth century a young lady was sitting in the garden In tbe rear of ber borne In New Orleans when a negro came from tbe bouse bearing a silver sulver on which lay a sealed note. "Mile. Tberese. can you tell me where I can dud Marse George?" asked the boy. Instead of replying, the girl took the missive from tbe salver and looked tt over, especially examining the band writing In which the address was writ ten. "Who brought It?" ebe asked. "A eulld boy." "Whose boy?" "1 spec' be belongs to Mars' Win ston." Mars' Winston was the intimate friend of Clarence Warfleld. and Clar ence Wartieid had been attentive to the young lady who was inspecting the note, d'eorge Carnotix. ber twin broth er, was so wra pied up In bjs sister that tbe idea ot her marrying any one wns abhorrent to blm. lie said that he would be perfectly willing she should marry provided the mini of her choice was good enough for her. but that man had not yet appeared. Mile. Carnou from the opposition ber brother had shown to tbe attentions Wartieid bad paid ner. suspected that ber brother had Insulted the latter, and this was a challenge. But she could not under stand. It such it were, why l.ouls Win. ston should not bave brought so im portant a communication himself in stead ot sending it by a slave. "1 will go and fiee If 1 can find him." she said to tbe servant "Let tbe boy wait." She went into the house and up to her room, taking the noie with uer. Her brother was not at home, and she bud little fear ot interruption in what she was about to do. Slitting the paper about the seal envelopes were nut then used she read the note. It was, as slie susHM-ted. a challenge Warlield had sent through Winston, who ex plained bis sending it by a slave be cause if be called himself Mile. Car noux might suspect the object of bis visit. Winston said Wartieid hoped that Carnoux would withdrew the lan guage he bad used that morning, for he considered the affair very unfortu nate, and it should be amicably settled. Mile. Carnoux knew tier brother too well to believe that be would withdraw anything be had said In tbe face of a challenge. She sat with tbe letter in ber band for a long while revolving plans in her beHd for preventing the meeting. She loved Wartieid. and ber affection for ber brother wns of that strength that Is natural between twins At last she came to a conclusion Tak ing trout a cabinet a bundle ot her brother's letters, she replied to the note in bis name. Imitating bis bund writ ing. appointing for tbe meeting the next morning at 5 o'clock in the wood near the city, where most duels were fought Then, sealing ner note witb wax. she called a servant and told mm to give it to i be boy. When Oeorge Carnoux came in an hour later he found bis sister waiting for bim expectantly. She told bim that word bad come trom a plantation own ed by tbe Carnoux family that the levee on Its border showed signs of breaking and bis presence was needed there at once. Mow, Carnoux was not well pleased at this news since be expected a visit from some friend ot Warlield's. whom be bad insulted that morning. But on asking It any geutlemau bad called to see him and being assured that tbere had not be reluctantly mounted a horse and rode away, leaving orders that any one calling was to receive an explana tion of his absence and be told that lie would return Just as soon as be could secure tbe safety or the plantation. Mile. Tberese. who bad sent her brother away on a tool's errand, kuew that be could not go to the plantation and return before the next day was half speut As soon as be had gone, having eliminated him temporarily from the problem, she gave herself up to thought us to what she should do further. While George was ot an ex citable dispositlou und a bery temper. Tberese bad the advantage of blm in coolness, and she possessed more phys ical strength. Indeed, though George was by no means effemluate. every one said that Tberese should have been the boy Instead ot ber brother. She was a tiitie heavier In build and was half an inch taller. Evening came and she bad formed no plan, but at tbe hour when the cares were crowded an Idea got Into ber head that accorded rather with the nature ot a man than that of a wo man. Going to her brother's room, she Belected a suit of his clothes and pot It on. concealing her feminine figure by donning a large oven-oat witb a long cape that covered ber blps. It was not needed for warmth, but was very efficient as a disguise. Having thus arrayed berselt. she watched for an opportunity to escape from the bouse unobserved, but stumbled on Uncle .lake, an old darky, who start ed when he saw her, "Ko1 de Lo'd. Mars' George. I thought yo'd gone to de piantatlonl Yo' ualut o' owu ghost nohow, are yo'?" Mars' George pushed by tbe old man. saying that be was In a burry. learlng him gaping, and. entering upon tbe street, strolled toward tbe gayest part of the city. Wben morning dawned Clarence Wartieid, accompanied by bis second, Winston, drove into the wood where tbe meeting was to take place. No one was there. Winston pulled bis watcb from bis fob and remarked that It was till live minutes of tbe bour appoint ed. The two men paced back and forth together, for the morning was chilly. While thus engaged tbey beard tbe aouod of carriage wbeela, and Winston remarked. "Here tbey come; they're on tbe minute." What was their surprise to see three I gentlemen alight from tbe carriage whom they did not know, one witb a I pair of rapiers In the bollow of bis ! arm, another having a wooden case. I Tbe three ou seeing Wartieid and his ! second looked equally astonished. "Gentlemen." suld tbe man witb the j foils, "I presume we bave both come j for a similar puriwse. but fortunately I there is plenty of room for alL" J "We presumed that your carriage ! contained the other half of our party." aid Wartieid. looking at bis timepiece "it is a few minutes past our appoint ed time. We were to meet at 5 o clock." "That was our hour." "Indeed. Strange that two affairs should have been arranged for tbe same liour at the Rame place." Tbe last words were scarcely spol;en when another carriage drove up and out stepped a third party, unknown to the other two. All three of tbe dif ferent sets looked at one another In amazement. "There is something singular about all tliN." said Winston. Then, turning to one of the party who were second on Hie ground, he asked: "Would yon mind iutorming me. sir, of the name ot the man you are to meetV" The other handed the inquirer a card bearing the uame ot George Carnoux. Winston and his principal looked at it in added astonishment. "And you?" said Winston, turning to the third party, who produced a card bearing the same name as the other. As soon as Warlield could regain his tongue be asked both parties If they bad long known Mr. Carnoux and re ceived a reply that they bad met bim only the evening before, where both principals admitted that they bad been grossly insulted by bim. Warlield and his second looked at each other puzzled. What could It mean? Carnoux was a tiery fellow, but a gentleman who would not be likely to Insult any one. Could it be that bis I courage bad failed him and In order to prevent one duel be had taken upon himself two more? "What kind of a looking person was the man who insulted you?" asked Winston of the others. They described Carnoux "It must be so." said War field to his second. Then to tbe others: I "Gentlemen, you may as well return to the city. The man who insulted you did so. doubtless, to escape a meeting i witb me. I sent him a' challenge yes i terday afternoon and received a reply ; directly from blm appointing the uieet : ing with me here this morning." ! At that Juncture more wheels were I heard, and another carriage rolled Into j the wood. All eyes were turned toward j It, eager to see who would alight, all j suspecting that a new person who had j been Insulted the night before was I coming to receive satisfaction. To the j astonishment of all three parties, out stepped a lady a lady whom Wartieid and his second recognized at ouce as Therese Carnoux. I "What does this mean, you coward?" ; thundered one ot the principals. "Do I you come here to shield yourself under j a woman's skirts?" j "Please explain, sir," said Therese i haughtily. 1 The man referred to the Insult of the evening before. ', "George Carnoux Is my brother." re ! plied Therese. "and he could not have .' insulted you. because he went yester I day afternoon to our plantation, hfty 1 miles away." "There is some trick heref cried the 'other furiously. Wartieid interrupted him. "You came here to meet this lady's brother. One disrespectful word to her and you will have an opportunity to settle the matter with me." ' The three parties glared at one an other for a tew moments; then both the second and third parties to arrive bolt ! ed for their carriages and drove away, j They had scarcely gone wben a fourth I carriage came hurrying on. then stop j ped. and out Jumped George Carnoux. j Seeing his sister, he exclaimed re- proucbfuily: I "Therese. what have vou done? You have sought to disgrace me." "Brother, you must make the best of all this. I am engaged to Clarence j Wartieid and command you to make it ! all up with bim." ! "I beg ot you to do so," said War- field, advancing, with outstretched band. Carnoux hesitated, then took tbe proffered hand. "But what does it all mean?" he asked of bis sister. "I received tbe challenge intended for you. replied to it In your name, sent you off to get you out ot the way, went out dressed In your apparel, com plicated matters by Insulting persons In your name and came here to exonerate you." "What a mad freak!" "You returned sooner than I expect ed." "I met a man from the plantation wlm told u: that there was no danger Trom the levee." "And now. gentlemen." said Therese. "since this affair has been brought to the reductlo ad absurdiini come nome with me and we will have some break-fust" , H t4.,H A. McC ALLEN, President L. L ML'LIT, Cashier. C. H.

Immigrants Suffering With Hook worm in Seattle (Jiiai-antine. Seattle, Wash. Thirty immigrants from the Orient, including 20 Japan ese "picture brides," are held in quarantine at the United States immi gration station here because they are afflicted with hookworm. "About 50 per cent of the Japanese women entering America are victims of hookworm," said Dr. Jolivar J. Lloyd of the United States Public Health and Marine Hospital Service. "Only 12 per cent of the male Immi grants from Japan have the disease. The greater prevalence of the disease among the Japanese women than the men is because the women go bare footed while working in the rice fields, while the men have been ac customed to wearing shoes. The dis ease is contracted by the larvae of the hookworm entering the system through some abrasion of the skin, frequently on the feet. It has been estimated that !0 per tent ot the Chinese boys who enter this country have the disease. Application Denied. Washington, D. C. The interstate Commerce Commission denied Mon day the application of the Southern Pacific Railway Company for relief from the operation of the long and short haul law governing traffic be tween Portland, Ore., and San Fran cisco common points. It was held, however, that the Southern Pacific has Justified the exaction of higher rates southbound from Portland to points inland than to San Francisco. The existing rates, subject at inter mediate points to the operation of the long and short haul provision, will stand, the necessary adjustment of rates to be made by August 1..
