A Successful Clew H n l h 't i n N o . 1 A Mistake in the Policy of the Bethlehem Steel Company To the People; The Senate o f the United States has passed a lull to spend J i t . 000,000 of the People's money to build a government anuor plant. The measure is now before the House of Representatives.

Don’ t you know that without them we would hate no town to speak of and we would just be dots on the map or not on it at all? Don't you think it is to our interest -to your interest - to know the* farmer better, to make friends with him, to give him a genu inely hearty welcome every time he comes to our town? Shouldn’t we make him feel that this town that he patronizes is his town as well as ours?

The life savers suc ceeded. after a number of futile at tempts. In launching a boat and mak ing a trip toward the wreck nud at Inst brought hark several is*r»ona, among whom wna a little boy ntKiut live years old, who had U*en secured in an Improvised raft. The ehlhVs Identity was never ills- covered, tie was adopted by a family of country people living on the coast, ami when eighteen years old shlpissl on a steamer as dcckhnnd. But he had some islucatlon. and It was not long before lie was made a subordinate ottl- eer. The steamer on which ho was wrecked was called the Alexander Hamilton, and the boy took this for Ills name, lie knew nothing of the great statesman of thnt name, there fore his act was not Immodest. It was evident from young Hamil ton's personality that he was a child of aristocratic lineage. Those who knew how he had been picked up from tho wreck wondered why those connected with 1dm by blood had not found him. Before going to sea ho had beeu ad vised to hunt up his origin, but more than a dozen years bad elapsed since he had I ecu brought ashore, and ho knew not w here to la-gln. The young man's Idea of going to sea was that he hoped for an oppor tunity to visit points of Interest In different countries. When ho drew his l>sy he would Inrertably use K for this purpose. During s voyage Ids ship re mained some time at Tangier, opposite (¡llirallar, unloading and taking In Arab goods. Hamilton obtained leave to visit Seville In Spain. Having ar tistic tustes, he visited a gallery con taining some pictures, works of tho i 1.1 masters. Stopping before n Ma donna and child by Murillo, lie stood looking at It. a feeling growing up within him that he Imd seen it before. Presently lie felt assured that ho had not * nly se.-i, it, but thnt It had been very near t*> him The face of the Madonna was associated la his mind with some loved memory. “ It mny be.” he snlil to hltnsclf, “ thnt the picture is a key to my childhood." If this were so It might lie possible for him to find the lock. An object had como to the young man. Tho circumstances attending hie having been taken by shipwreck from his natural surroundings Imd cast a gloom over film. Now he brightened up find resolved that lie would follow the clew on detective principles and never give up the sonrcli so long ne there was a ray o f hope. Sitting on a bench before the picture, lie gavo liltn- solf up to n mental Investigation. This was the result: Either his parent« hnd brought him to Seville, where he hnd seen the picture, or he had somewhere seen a eopy of It. He went to every hofc-I In tho city, got permission to look at tho records previous to the time of the shipwreck anil asked every landlord whether lie remembered hearing of any ono who had been at his house being lost on the steamer from whleh ho hnd been saved. Rut this Investigation led to no result Ho next turned Ids attention to tho ma'ler of nny copy that might havo been made of the picture. A fter much questioning he found that but ono copy Imd ever been made and that was for a bishop of the Roman Catholic church. Hamilton discovered who tho bishop wns anil went to the episcopal palace. The bishop was dead, but a priest told (he searcher that the copy was Intend ed fop n rich Englishman, who ns n price for It gave n large sum to tho church. Hamilton’s next movo was to learn the nnme of the Englishman. Tho priest examined papers back for more limn twenty years and found letters written eighteen years before from tho man for whom the copy hnd lieen made, one letter giving directions ns to where It was to be sent. The name was John N. Roylngton, --- Harley Hamilton Imd money enough to take him lo London, hut no more. He de cided to make the Journey, and If ho discovered no relative he would ship on some vessel bound for Amerlen. On reaching London lie found that John Roylngton Imd been an eminent sur geon, but was now mi old man nud re tired The sailor went to Ills residence, was ushered Into the drawing room, i ud there on the wall hung the copy I f the Murillo “ Madonna and c h ild ’ When Dr. Hoylngtiin came down to see lilin and Hamilton told his story the old man snt silent for n time, then said: “ I believe that you are my grandson.
