The old adage that “absence makes
the heart grow lo leer” is truly proved
in a case where- discontent and fault
finding, friction from one cause or an-
other, has crept in and found lodgment
in well-regulated affectionate anl lov-
ing families.

A short separation, a little vacation,
where father, mother, children -0ne
or all—leave the centre of mutual in-

terests and with other scenes, other

amusements, other occupations or du-
ties, smooth ol’f the rough edges that
for the momment threaten to mar the
home’s serenity.

In such a separation differences ad-
just themselves anl a reunion is a
pleasure.

Thero- arc, of course, exceptions to
this rule, as to all others; sad, miser-

_ Astonishing Blue to Riches andP'owcr o!

_ 8 Former Alabama Slave.

The richest and most powerful man
socially and pelitically in the Republic
of Guatemala is John Knight, a negro,
who was born a. slave in Alabama and
Who was sold from the public slave
block as late as March, 1860.

Knight was an exceptionally bright
boy., He never saw his father, who
was sold into a, distant State before
he was born. The family to whom
Knight belonged gave him an educa-
tion, and at the age of sixteen the boy
was sold for $1,600, a. high price, con-
sidering that the sale occurred in No-
vember, 1860, the very :time of Lincoln's
election.

Knight remained with the family of
his new master until the close of .the
war. In common with thousands of
other slaves, he then declared his free-
dom. He walked to New Orleans, and
for the first time in his life went away
from his master's properties. In New

'Orleans he worked as a wharf laborer

for a firm which handled fruits from
Central America. He saved his money.
Everyone 'about the wharves knew
John Knight, the most capable and in-
dustrious colored man there. One day
in June, 1866, he was sent by his em-
ployer down to Yucatan, in Central
America, to live there as boss of the
packing and shipping of fruits to New
Orleans. He had $20 a week salary.
That was practically the beginning
of John Knight’s millions. He lived in
Yucatan a. year, worked hard, saved
his every cent, and dreamed of the day
when he could have an orange, banana
and pineapple shipper on his own ac-
count. ‘Having heard of the great
tracts of free and fertile fruit lands
south of San Christvoval in Gautemala.
he went and located there. A live,
wide-awake person‘ was something
unique in those days in that region of
siestas and tropical sunshine. A revo-
lution, in which Ramon Sanchez had
been deposed, was just as its close.
John'Knight saw what hard work
and an opportunity to gain the favor
of the new administration would do
for himself. He proposed that for a
concession of some 50,000 acres of land
suitable for pineapple and banana.
growing he would go to New Orleans
and get the wholesale fruit dealers,
who ruled the American market thirty
years ago, to agree to buy $2,000,000 3.
year of Guatemala fruits. The Guate-
mala Government gladly accepted the
proposition. In less than three months
the deal was consummated at New
Orleans. It was the beginning of the
trade of millions of dollars annually.
To make a. long story short, John
Knight get other concessions, as he
demonstrated the profit there was in
growing fruits for the United States
markets. .The shipping business to
New York and San Francisco was
started and enormously enlarged.
He married a. native young woman

in Stapa. in 1872, and rthe union has»

been a. great help to his fortunes.
About twenty years ago he induced
New England capital to embark ex-
tensively in coffee growing in Guate-
mala, and he invested over, $150,000
of his own capital in the industry. The
Government gave him a very advan-
tageous shipping concession for his ef-
forts in bringing capital to the coun-
try. Coffee growing proved wonder-
fully renumerative for a dozen years.
At one time the annual Shipments of
coffee from the Knight fincas were the
largest from any private estate in all
Central America.

The" negro planter branched out in
other directions. He went to Phila-
delplhia. and contracted to furnish
many thousands of feet of mahogany
yearly for ten years. Then he bought
up tracts of mahogany trees in Nicar-
agua and Guatemala. At one time he
was the second largest dealer in ma-
hogany in the world. Everything he
touched he made a success.

He lives in royal style in the suburbs
of Guatemala City. No one’in that re-
gion except the Barrios ever enter-
tained So lavishly as Don Knight and
his wife. Their home is a. large mod-
ern house of plate glass windows, pol-

' ished woods, costly‘hangings-all fur-
nished from New York and New Or--

leans. A small army of servants at-
tends the wants of the family—New

Pirate of Salt Water Fish.

The greatest enemy to the best spe-
cies of fish is found in the vicious,
voracious, and dangerous bluefish. In
size, ordinarily as long as your arm,
with teeth like barbs, he can snap in
halves a. fish Of his own size, and near-
ly all fish stand in mortal dread of
him. Generally traveling in schools—-
sometimes as much as five miles in
length—they will in short order deci-
mate a school of shad, ‘spot, menhaden
or such like. In his stomach can be
found numbers of smaller fish, accord-
ing to size. One was opened which
contained a trout of almost his own
size, while another contained a. shad
nearly as'large. Still others are found
having within themselves one or more
of their own species of smaller size.
But their destructiveness does not end
here. They will follow a. school of
shad, spot, mackerel and cod, snapping
and slashing their prey until the wa-
ter is all afoam. They eat until they
can hold no more, but their vicious—
ness is not abated._ With a. snap a
shad is sundered and spit out, and the
next shares the . same fate. They
never tire, and the fish destroyed, but
uneaten, cover the surface of the
water.

Without question the blueflsh is by
far the greatest factor» to be reckoned
with, considering the preservation of
our food ‘fishes. But man’s effort
seems to be futile in his extinctionvor
banishment. Nets will not hold him,
and only the stoutestpline (for the in
“game" in everv sense of the word),
protected with metal about the book,
will withstand . his. vicious snapping.—

——Everybody Talks of the' Klondike.
With the‘bpprbach of Springand the
opening days of navigation and trans»
portation in Alaska, the lute-lest in the
wonderful gold mines of the Klondike
is increasing. ThOse of our leaders
who contemplate the long journe',
should put themselves into com :llunica:
tiou promptly with The“ Joseph Ladue
Gold Mining and Development Com-
pany Of Yukon. This Company, which
has been organized by some of the
most prominent financiers Of New York.
runs its line of steamers to Dawson
Cit-y via St. Michaels. It actually owns
some of the most valuable placer and
quartz mines in the Klondike. The
attention of our readers is called to a

his issue. "

Graceful slime! Gowns.

The large, very much frllled berthu
or flchus of muslin and lace are al.
ready, and will continue to be, conspic-
uous features of summer fashions. The
model so familiarly known as the
Marie Antoinette is the chief favorite,
and on many dressy toilets, when gen-
uine hot weather comes, the pretty
frilly Elbow sleeves—also associated
With the French queen—will again bear
this Pretty fichu company. And fur-
ther, the long silk gloves of white or
tinted silk will be substituted for those
013 kid. and the wide-brimmed chip or
leghorn hat, heaped with clusters of
roses and foliage, a la" Watteau, will
be en suite. Properly carried out, this
combination will prove very poetic and
picturesque. The Marie Antoinette
sleeve is tlght-flttlnglo the elbow; It
is then furnished with falling frills of
handsome lace in a. double row. When
the sultry days of summer come upon
us, we shall be glad to discard the
very long sleeves we have been wear-
ing on gowns, and the 'cool silk gloves
will likewise be an agreeable change
for kid gants, either‘of the glace or
undressed variety.

Glossy Materials Now Fashionable.

The silky Henriettas and French and
India cashmeres in white and colors
are regaining the place in fashionable
favor which they lost when dull-sur-
faced, rough materials first became‘so
popular. Cashmere, one of the best
wearing fabrics we have, was banished
because of its glossiness, which was
then a' fault, but now, by a turn of
fashion’s wheel, has developed into a
virtue. There is even an extra. lustre
upon the face of some of the new wools,
for the weaves are finer and silkier
than ever. The embroidered patterns
in dress lengths are very elegant and
tempting. These decorated fabrics are
not in the strict sense new. It is only
the lapse of timethat allows them the
distinction of novelty. The robe pat-
terns, as they are called, are a. combi-
nation of plain and embroidered ma-
terial, and this allows for variety and
an exercise of artistic taste in making

up the fabric.
