IT
IN DARK HOUSE
Host, Hostess and 40 Guests, All
Sightless, Enjoyed Themselves to
tho Utmost.
ST. LOUIS, July 2 G. With so lit
tle light that It can bo said that tho
hcjUBe was In darknesB, a reception
was given to forty guests, not ono of
whom was In tho least disconcerted
by the absence of Illumination.
There was music, and there were
refreshments, and thero wore songs
and Instrumental music, and a lot of
laughter, talking, and story telling,
and all tho North American Gas and
Lighting Company gets out of It is
one night's bill for cooking gas for
a house in Cook avenue.
Nobody at the reception could see
n wink, but they can't see any time,
so tho absenco of light was not no
ticed except by tho neighbors, who
could hear but could not peep.
The occasion was the first anni
versary of tho wedding of Charles
Reavey and of tho birthday of his
wife. Mrs. Reavey was married to
her present husband last year after
she was divorced fron another blind
man. They have a nice little home
and both are good musiclsans, and
neither has the slightest feeling of
dependence on "seeing" folk. The
wife has a comfortable income.
Before the guests came Mrs. Rea
vey and her blind assistant went over
the house carefully and put It in
order.
They swept every inch of the floors
and hung sweet smelling flowers
where they could do tho most good.
"Swept?" ,, ,
How do blind women sweep?
It's as easy as falling off a log, to
hear one of them tell about it. They
just take off their shoes'and feel the
floor with their feet. If there Is any
dirt they will find It assurely as a
woll-tralned dog will find a bird.
They don't havo to'see things.

Poor Norwegian Halts Run
away and Will Marry Daugh
ter of Millionaire.
LOS ANGELES, July 24. Charles
Westrem, owner of tho "Poodle Dog"
restaurant here, will marry in Den
ver Miss Virginia McMillan, daughter
of R. S. McMillan, a Colorado min
ing millionaire. Westrem is a Nor
wegian, thirty years old, and was ten
years ago, dishwasher In tho restau
rant of which ho Is now the prop
rietor. It Is at tho "Poodle Dog"
that tho submerged tenth gets four
"sinkers" and a cup of coffee for a
nlcklo.
Tho love affair of tho young Nor
wegian and tho daughter of tho min
ing king is a real romance, in which
tho girl, waiting for her hero, saw
him for the first time as hor life was
In great peril. Of course, Westrem
saved her, and now they are to bo
married, in the beautiful mansion of
tho bride's father, and with tho
heartiest of parental blessings.
Westrem was on his way a year
ago to visit his native land, when he
stopped off for a day In Denver to see
the city. As ho was walking along
one of the principal business streets,
a runaway horse came wildly toward
him, dragging after It a vehicle in
which sat Miss McMillan. The young
woman held the reins, but was help
less and transfixed with terror as her
horso dashed around street cars,
wagons and pedestrians.
It seemed that the girl must in a
moment more meet death or terrible
Injury when Westrem sprang from
the sidewalk, clutched the bridle of
tho flying steed and clung to It until
he had been dragged a block. Then
the horse fell.
Miss McMillan was pitched head
foremost into the street, but escaped
with a broken ankle. The episode
changed the whole course of the
young man's life. Instead of going
to Norway he stayed a week in Den
ver, and in that time Miss McMillan
lost her heart to him.
Miss McMillan will be heiress to
at least $1,000,000.
American Capital's Great
Opportunity In IMexico.
Cj
By General HENRY IDE WILLEY.
HE greatest opportunity ever presented to a nation for invad
ing another fellow's country and reaping a harvest now con
fronts the United States in tho form of the untouched wealth
of Mexico.
"When President Diaz took office years ago he was surrounded by
Spanish influences which wore opposed to an American invasion of
the territory. It was years before ho was able to change this senti
ment, but tho time has now como when every native realizes that
AMERICAN ENTERPRISE AND CAPITAL CAN WORK
MTRAOLES in tho development of tho country.
THE PRESIDENT OF MEXICO 18 A STANCH SUPPORTER' OF
ALL THAT 18 AMERICAN AND HAS CONVINCED HIS PEOPLE THAT
THE FUTURE OF THEIR LAND RESTS LARGELY IN THE HAND8
OF UNCLE 8AM'8 COUNTRYMEN.
Baron von Humboldt described Mexico as tho "treasuro houso of
tho world.'' Cecil Rhodes called it a "veritable Now Jerusalem."
Ndthihg could bo more fitting than theso descriptions. In its natural
resources THE COUNTRY IS THE MOST RICHLY EN
DOWED IN THE WORLD, and it is fast reaching tho zenith of
its greatness. Every nation in the 'world except Mexico has had a
boom at one time or another. HER TIME IS NOW AT HAND.
Fear of revolutions and unfair methods, together with a lack of
modern transportation facilities, havo deterred outsiders from enter
ing Mexico for any years, but the more courageous long ago discov
ered that that wonderful statesman, patriot and soldier, Porfirio Diaz,
guaranteed a firm and stable government, and under his guidance wise
and generous laws were created and enforced until now all who know
Mexico agree that CAPITAL IS SAFE THERE.
An Idea! 'Sitter.
A Washington artist, while sketch
ing tn North Carolina, was one day in
search of a suitable background of
dark pines for a picture ho had plan
ned. At last he found tho precise sit
nation he was seeking, and, best of all,
thero1 chanced to bo a pretty detail in
the figure of an old colored woman in
the foreground.
The artist asked the old woman to
remain seated until he bad sketched
her. She assented with the greatest
good nature, but in a fow minutes
asked how long the artist -would be.
"Ob, only about a quarter of an hour,"
he answered.
Three minutes or so later the old
darky again inquired this time with
manifest anxiety how long the opera
tion of sketching would take.
"Not long.' was the reassuring re
ply. "But why do you ask so anxious
lyr" "Oh. nuthln', sab." the old wo
man hastened 'to respond, "only I'a
slttln' on an ant hill, sah." Judge's
