FO RAKER MAKING TROD BLE j
A row his developed in the re
publican campaign of Ohio. Senator
Foraker, whom it was believed would
succeed Senator Lodge as the mouth
piece of the administration in the upper
branch of the United States congress,
is now talking "stand p?t" doctrine
from the stump. He is strongly oppos
ing the tariff reform and railroad regu
lation plans of the president. To com
plicate matters and embarrass tha ad- 1
ministration in Ohio he, after attack
ing with all his forensic eloquence the
things President Roosevelt is urging,
asks the Toters to support the repub
lican ticket as an endorsement of the
republican administration.
The motive for this attitude of Sena- j
tor Foraker's Ohio republicans has not
been disclosed, but, of course, vhere is a !
motive. There always is a motive for j
acy position taken by the shifty For
aker. His position on all matters is j
always fixed by his judgment of what
most will assist Foraker to win the i
game of politics
While there is little liklihood of Ohio
doing else than to give the republicans
an enormous majority in the coming j
?tace elections, Senator Foraker is play- 1
ing with fire- His attitude cannot help:
but promote party division, and should ;
he and those associated with him pre
vent the consummation of the adminis
tration plan to revise the tariff and reg
ulate railroad rates it might result in
dissatisfaction that would prove very
costly to the republican party in the j
nation.
The developments in the investijia- j
lions of the three great New York life
insurance companies make? it plain ;
that there are some gloomy days ahead j
of the get-rich-quick men.

P. A. Johnson, carpenter, 4$i0 South
I street, Tacoma, Wash., says:
"For a year or so I took defferent
medicines trying to strengthen my
Kidneys, but my efforts were unsuccess
ful and I grew worse instead of better
and trouble with the kidney secretions
isma to be a positive annoyance. I
need not give minuter particulars and
what cured me is of more importance.
I got; Doan's Kidney Pills and took a
course of the treatment. I can honestly
say I have not felt a pain in my back
nor had any annoyance from too fre
quenl action of the kidneys since
I stopped the use of this medicine."

THE MIDSHIPMAN
AND THE GEISHA
[Original.]
She was a geisha In Tokyo. In Japan
girls are named Star, Sunshine, Cherry
or some such word, while boys are
called Stone, Tiger or Bear. This re
minds us of the children's saying that
"girls are made of sugar aiul spice
end all that's nice," while "boys are
made of snakes and snails and puppy
dogs' talis." The geisha's name was
Cherry, and it suited her exactly,
though she was an ox heart Through
her dusky skiu the red blood showed
Itself, her eyes were liquid, while the
lashes fringed them like the rushes on
the verge of minute twin lakes.
Bob Hyatt, a youug American mid
dy, went with a party of naval officers
to the tea house where Cherry danced
and sang, accompanying herself on her
samlson. The next day Hyatt went
again to the same tea house, gazing at
the geisha out of a pair of blue eyes
which spoke admiration far more
plainly than he could have expressed
It In words. He had barely passed
twenty, and Cherry was several years
behind that milestone of life. She had
been trained for a geisha just as girls
in America are trained to work iu fac
tories. The love songs she sang were
meaningless to her. When the little
god flew between her and the midship
man she did not recognize him for the
same Cupid with whose antics she had
entertained strangers. He whs some
thing new and beautiful to her. She
caught him In her hands and hugged
him to her bosom with all the delight
of a child clutching a fluttering bird.
None of the officers on the cruiser
knew bow Bob Hyatt made the ac
quaintance of the geisha. They noticed
that when he was grauted shore leave
he Invariably made some excuse to go
off by himself. Little attention was
paid to this till one day a number of
his shipmates met him face to face
walking with his little sweetheart on
one of the side streets of Tokyo where
he had hopeil to avoid them. When at
breakfast the next morning they all
sat at the Junior officers' mess they at
tempted to rally him on his conquest,
but he frowned them down, and they
had the delicacy to let him alone.
The cruiser remained In Japanese
waters some time, going from point to
point then sailed for Manila. The
night before she weighed anchor the
last time Bob came aboard with an
air that showed a change In the fair
weather of love iu which he had beeu
sailing. There was a faraway look in
his eyes that now and again gave place
to one of pain. He was so eugrossed
that he forgot a lotus tlower in his but
tonhole, and when he did see it with
a hand that trembled a little he took
out a pocketbook and put it away as a
souvenir. Durlug the voyage to Ma
nila he was not himself. His brother
officers smiled and remarket! that Ily
v-j , K...1I- Kit n
u 11 una uvtru i j in vc utiuij "?<- ?v. "
sailor and that he would not likely get
over It during the voyage to the Amer
ican Islands. This, however, would
not Indicate a very serious damage,
since the trip lasted but a few days.
With time the young officer regained
an Interest In what was going on about
him, though he would permit no refer
ence to his Intimacy with the geisha.
Indeed whenever any one ventured on
forbidden grounds a strange terror
was noticed to pass over his young
face, and for this reason his comrades
unanimously resolved that there must
be something painful connected with
the affair, and they would not irritate
the wound.
One morning an American gunboat
came Into the bay, and when she sig
naled that she was from Tokyo one of
the young officers standing beside Hy
att noticed a dread pass over his face,
aa If he might receive some bad news.
When an ensign from the gunboat
came aboard and went straight up to
him he caught at a rail to steady him
self, but when the officer gave him an
ordinary message he recovered at once.
All these Indications were remembered
afterward by Hyatt's companions.
Finally the cruiser steamed out of
Manila harbor, and it was announced
that she was to go back to Tokyo with
government dispatches for the emper
or, after which she was to return to
America. Midshipman Hyatt caught
his breath as though he was to face
some trial, but bore up bravely under
the scrutiny of others. Before the ves
sel reached Tokyo several of his friends
among the Juniors made up their
minds that he should not go ashore un
less watched. Upon reaching port he
was one of the first to ask for leave,
and when he was rowed to the dock
>ro of his best friends went In the '
same boat. Hyatt seemed to be too
much absorbed to suspect that they
would dog his footsteps, and they had
Uttle trouble In doing so unseen. I
When the two officers returned to the
ship they carried with them in a rick
shaw Midshipman Hyatt to the dock
and thence by boat to the cruiser.
There they reported that they had
been attacked in the streets by some
low grade Japanese and Hyatt had
been wounded. Hyatt recovered, but
he was a chaflged man. He was never
again the careless sailor boy he had
been before his first visit to Tokyo.
The officers who followed him in To
kyo kept the secret of what happened
for years, but after Hyatt's death one
of them told the story as I have told it
using an assumed name. The sequel Is
this:
When the middy left the geisha for.
as he told her, a final parting she
threatened to kill herself as soon as he
had gone. It wns this that troubled
him. On his return he went at once to
her house, met her brother and learned
that she had kept her word. Hyatt
would have been killed by the brother
had his comrades not interfered In
time to save his life.
