Little is heard |bf the Lusitania case and it is stated ?hat the German answer to America's bote can not be expected before next Tuesday or Wednesday. I It would be no surprise if the Ger- j man reply, in addition to a defense of te German position regarding submarine warfare and particularly of its Iiase for the sinking of tne L.usitama,; pith the alleged shipment of ammunition, should contain proposals which might serve as a basis for further negotiations with the United States. 1 The compromise proposed in a preP. .

It will be, Ilpointed out tnat Germany s accepiance in principle of tlie suggestion still is in force. It is not improbable that Germany also will advance an alternative suggestion that the United States permit Its nationals to travel on ships belonging to belligerents only if the vessels ire certified by the United States as having no munitions of war aboard and that such certified ships would not be subject to torpedoing without nnH/>o RoorardiTiP- t.hfv Gulflisht case the admiralty has reason to believe, it His stated, that the ship was not dam aged. by a submarine, but from some ^Vothercause.

THE HOM Pleasing Evening Reveries Tired Mothers as T Circle at Ev I The Home Martyrs. I It is a pernicious notion to think that the woman who wears herself out, body and soul, and never asks or hopes for one hour's relief from weary care, is the best mother. She may be good-hearted, but she nas poor judg ment; ou:erwise sue wouiu manage differently and try and keep sane and do the work which God probably created her to do. Every mother needs occasional relief from her cares. The other day I met a mother in her home moving feebly about, pale and worn to a shadow, who certainly bids fair to become another domestic martyr and evidently will soon succumb to fate. 9:e told me that she had faint-1 ing spells and that the doctor had or- j tiered rest and qui<*.t, but she could not leave "baby." But ;t seems tbat i it would be better to leave baby a while than it would to die or go insane, and he would probably be a good deal better off in the hands of an older j woman Experience is of as mudb ac- J count in child management as it is j in any other kind of business, and a visiting grandmother wfco can tell the; difference between temper and cholera infantum would be a blessing to any town. Every ology under the sun is taught except physiology, in a practical way. j We do not need self-sacrificing martyrs for mothers half so much as we, need women with good sense?women who will take the trouble to learn something about motherhood and tf:e i care of children before they bring children into the world. Love is the great magician that can turn sordid surroundings into a home of hanninpss that nan tr-ancfnrm and wrinkles into youth;and beauty.! , j To those w!:o will resolutely look at! the good and ignore t'*e faults in those ! whom they have chosen for partners' for life, the ennobling influence on j themselves and that partner is un-1 speakable. -Many a light-minded, care- j less woman *:as become a good wife' and mother because her husband!

It is from eight to sixteen t!':at boys begin to break away from parental control and the restraints of the fireside. It is then that they seem to feel that they know more than they who bore them; itvis then that tl':ey begin to assert the liberty of the streets, and taste its delusions, its vices, and its crimes. Said an English jurist of i great distinction: "A large majority of all the criminals who are brought before me have been made what they are by being allowed to be away from home evenings between the ages of : eight and sixteen." * * * There is nothing in the world that i grows upon one so fast as a desire to loaf. The growth is gentle and pleasant at first. We "put off" a little thing,: dodge some little responsibility, or do some little shirking just because we don't wish to exert ourselves. It is a little thing, but it can't be rubbed out. It is the beginning of a disease of the will?a drop from the bucket of mora: force, a scratch on t!:e face of self respect.

The otr:er is the kind that appears best at home?the girls that are useful and cheerful in the dining room, sick room, and all the precincts of home. They differ widely in character. One is often a torment at home, the other a blessing; one is a moth, consuming every imng aoout irer; me omer is a sunbeam, inspiring light and gladness all around her pathway.

I The Redskins Had Decorated Him [ With a War Bonnet of Feathers, but He Took It For the Real Thing In Crowns and Accepted the Title. Hidden in the diary of Francis Fletcher, a sailor parson who acted as chaplain for the freebooters of Sir Francis Drake, is the story of the first hoax ever engineered by Californians. j The joke was on Sir Francis. Un- j til bis last day he believed tbe Indians of California bad crowned bim tbeir i kins?king of California. As a matter ! of fact all they did was to give him a feather war bonnet *nd perform some native rites before bim, hoping j thereby to get their hands in his gift! box again. It happened in June. 1559. Drake; was looking for the mythical north- J west passage after a successful yearj looting and plundering in the Spanish colonies. His ship, the Golden Hind, sprang a leak, and Drake put into a little bay. just north of the present i San Francisco, for repairs. An Indian paddled out to the ship in a canoe. He scattered feathers on the on/) ivnnt thmntrh n 1 nf nf nnn. nauci auu u vut iui M ?vi. tomime. Drake feared to land until he found out the intent of the natives. The one Indian went back to shore. Then, to quote from Chaplain Fletcher: "He shortly came againe the second time in like manner and so the third time, when he brought with him, as a present from the rest, a bunch of feathers, much like the feathers of a blacke crowe, very neatly and artificially gathered upon a string and drawne together in a round bundle, being verie j cleane and finely cut With this also! he brought a little basket made of j rushes and filled with an herbe which ! Llie> culled tobah, both being tyde to a short rodde he caste into our boate." Drake tried to give presents in return, but the Indian paddled away | quickly. He took only an old cocked j hat which some sailor had thrown j overboard. The hat made quite an | impression on the tribe apparently, for ! they all gathered around the possessor on the beach. In three days' time Drake concluded j the Indians were friendly, so landed his men and began to unload the ship. A fort was constructed as a matter of precaution. While the crew prepared the Golden Elind for sea Drake visited with the Indians. A tale, apocryphal perhaps, I says he took an Indian chieftain's j daughter to wife. At any rate, he* got on famously with the savages, aided, no doubt, by generous gifts. As the time neared for his departure and gifts grew fewer, the Indians an-1 nounced that they intended to give a, festival for Drake and his party, i Drake came in full armor, and the in-! dians danced and played games for his benefit. * At thp rinsp of the ceremonies the Indians signaled that Drake was to be j honored in some way. First an In- j dian approached bearing what Fletcher calls "a scepter." Drake accepted this! kingly accouterment Then a chain was placed around his neck, and amid' great shouting a "crown of feathers" was placed on his head. Drake saw no other meaning of the, ceremony than that he had been chosen king. What they really did was give him a pipe, a belt of wampum and a war bonnet. Drake drew his men up in line and, with a great flourish of trumpets and drums, accepted the king- j " " jr _ a ~ SDip 01 uaiuoriiia. as a pu3lsv;hjjl uc added that he made no claims to being an independent monarch. He was still, a vassal of Qufeen Elizabeth. He set up a monument to that effect: "Our general caused to be set up a monument jof our being there, as also of her majesties and successors right and title to that kingdom?namely, a plate of brasse, fast nailed to a greate and firme poste; whereon is engraven her grace's name, the day and year of our arrival there, and of the free giving up of the province and kingdom, both by the king and people, unto her majesties' hands; together with her highness picture and arms, in a piece of sixpence current English monie, shewing itselfe by a bole made of purpose through the plate; underneath was likewise engraven the name of our general." The hoax was successful. After accepting the kingship Drake sent for a large assortment of gifts for his subjects.?Kansas City Times.

A Spartanburg dispatch says it is not unlikely that there may be several mere candidates for congress from the Fourth district before the lists close finally on July 5. It was learned last week tf:at H. H. Arnold, of Woodurff. now serving his fifth term as a member of the house of representatives from Spartanburg county, may be a candidate for the seat in congess made vacant by the resignation of Joseph T. Johnson. When ' communicated with Mr. Arnold stated that he was considering making ti e race, but had not yet definitely decided whether or not he would run. Horace L. Bomar, a well known law- 1 yer, of Spartanburg, has also had under consideration the matter of entering the race for congress. Asked about his possible candidacy, Mr. Bomar j stated that while he had been urged by 1 a number of his friends to run, !':e did not think it likely that he would enter.
