The Massachusetts, Election.

The Republican majority in MassR-
chusetts is reduced, in one year, from
1900 to 1900. A year ago we should
have regretted such a result, to-day we
hail IL as the precursor of Woman Suf-
frage victory. And the reason is simply
this: A year ago the Republican party
of Massachusetts, was the party Of prog
ress, with a platform endorsing Woman
Suffrage, Temperance and the rights of
labor; to-day it has gone back on Wom-
an Suffrage, it has trified with Temper
ance, it has repudiated Labor Reform,
and it has sre-nominated a Governor who
has shown no sympathy with suffrage
or labor, and who has failed to enforce 4
prohibitory liquor law which was en-
acted at his own urgent request. To-
day the Republican party of Massachu-
setts is party without recognized prin-
ciples or purpose.
Now party without principles is
like a man without a purpose; il is the
sport of its own passions and impulses
For the past year the Republican lead
ers of Massachusetts, the very men who
/ have worked together since 1860, have
resolved themselves into mutual def
emation" society, and have actively de-
voted themselves to throwing mud al
each other for the amusement of the by
ISLANDERS. Nothing has saved them bu
the unmitigated folly of the Democracy
who nominated Mr.. CASTOR for Cover
nor; an amiable man, Of respectable
private character, but opposed to all re
form, and who, as Mayor of Boston, 10y
his unparalleled administrative ineffi
cheney, had made himself incapable o
reelection. Had the Democrats of Mas
sachusetts nominated John L. FitZger

frage, he would have been elected by
handsome majority. We believe ther

with alacrity about the preparation of

coffee.
Jack Miles did not come home until

possession, and spoke kindly enough to
Judith, though declining to take any

LOvE.-Love is n thing that people
like to talk about; but people who love
a good deal don't talk much about it.
Love is like an apple pudding, however
good it may be, it cannot be Telished un-
til tasted, and then you want more of it.
Love is like 4 good many things: it is
like a brooklet seeking the river, if you
stop it in its course, it'll run over and
get there anyway; 1t is like beeswax, if
you warm it, it'll get soft and may be
moulded, if it gets cold it will get hard,
but its beeswaX all the same; il is like
the sun, which is just as bright behind
the clouds as when there are none; it is
even like hate, the more you cherish it,
the more you have of it. Love is a
funny thing. Everybody laughs at
everybody else for being in love; il
makes everybody do what no other body
would-that is, they say the wouldn't,
but let them try it. / know a man that
walks six miles every Sunday and Thurs
day night for love, and havn't yet seen
the weather that would keep him back
he loves. Love is q stubborn thing.
You can't make it when it won't. !
once knew man who killed his wife
trying TO make her love him-but she
wouldn't.
They err who say love is blind. 1t sees
faults where no faults are, and virtues
that were never seen by other eyes.
Who has no love should get it, and
having it, show it. 1t is jewel that
cannot be laid away, but must be worn
to be preserved.

ATTACHMENT TO NEwsPAPERs.-T
strong attachment of subscribers to well
conducted newspapers is fully confirmed
by publishers. "Stop my paper" words
of dread to beginners, lose their terrors
after paper has been established for a
term of years. So long as a paper pur-
sues a Just, honorable and judicious
course, meeting the wants of its Gus
toners i'm all respects, the ties Of friend
shin between the subscribers and the
paper are as hard to break by an out
side third party as the links which bind
old friends i'm business or social life.
Occasionally defects and errors in q
newspaper are overlooked by those who
have become attached to it through its
perusal for years. They sometimes be-
come dissatisfied with it on account OF
something that has slipped into its col
umns and may stop taking it;
/ but the absence Of the familiar sheet al
their homes or offices for a few weeks
becomes an insupportable privation,
and they hasten to take it again, and
maybe apologize for having stopped it.
/ This we Ielieve to be the common expe.
rience of all established newspapers
No friendship on earth is more constant
than that contracted by the readers Of 9
| journal which makes an honest anC
earnest effort to merit his continued
support. Hence the newspaper which
is conscientlously conducted becomes ,
] favorite In the family.

The Chelsea Public justly condemns
the inaction of men who are "too nice
for politics." and says:
"The man who remains away from the
polls and the primary meetings forfeits
his right to complain of malfeasance in
office, corruption, or high tax-rate. He
neglects his duty to his country and his
fellow-citiZens, and is in no wise enti-
tied to the benefits aecruing from a free
government Of the people. He it is who
is responsible for the corruption Of the
present day, for he refuses to use his in
huenee against it, and allowsi it to go on.
In what better way can he lend his aid
to the various wire-pulling rings than
by quietly remaining at home, and CIV

vance sheets of new volume Of Poems enti-
tied apple Blossoms" by Hattie Tying Girls
wold.l
Mid the purple isles ofthe Indian sea,
A wonderful mountain rears its head,
And so magnetic 'tis said 10 be,
That the sailors look ON its base with dread.
And many the tale 10 you they will tell,
OF how il will draw the bolts and bars
From the staunchest ship with It's sorcerer'S
spell
And cast it ahoat-rent sails and spars.
And they say that a maiden dwelt near by,
On another isle OF this Indian sea,
Who had seen the ships like sea-gulls fy
Up against this mountain OF treschery,
To be severed and sundered wide apart,
Till deep within her a horror grew
That struck 70 the cure or her very heart
Lest some sad day the ship and crew
To her heart most dear should fall a prey
To this terrible mountain, grand and grim,
And that she should see her lover lay
stark at her feet aS she watched for him.
And so the deep feeling OF horror grew
That she sat by day and she sat by night
Gazing up 10 the mountain blue,
And down TO the sea al its base, so white.
And one bright day the good ship came
Sailing up 10 these Indian isles,
Right toward the mount with its crest OF fame
Which beckoned il on with It's sorcerer'.
wiles.
And the maiden's heart grew ialnt with woe,
As with anguished eyes she watched the
ship
Sailing on in the evening glow
Into the fatal mountains grip.
But the maiden's eyes, 50 dark and deep,
Such counter sorcery did work,
That the ship swayed back with majestic SWEEP
And lay at her feet in the evenings murk.
And the lover clasped the maid In his arms,
While the angry mountain leaped In flame
But was powerless evernore for harms,
And lost in time its evil fame.
'Tis a very fable, some may say,
But I, dear love, can well believe
When look in your face this happy day,
And feel 10 my own your soft lips cleaye,
That woman's eyes could do all this
Yea, do, dear love- much more by far
For the sorcery OF your look and kiss
Might draw a soul from the farthest star.

CHApTER II.
THE MILES FASlILY.


Judith was looking at the title-pages
OF her new books when the sound Of her
fathers footsteps in the passage-way
startled her, and she dextrously moved
them from sight with that instructive
desire to avoid contention upon a
subject where agreement is impos-
sible, which has been often imputed
to women for duplieity. II duplic-
ity it be, then it is the logical re-
suit of enslaved action in connection
with judgment or a will that cannot
be enslaved. Though it is in the power
OF men to choose wives whose wills are
feeble as their physical powers of re-
sistance, is not given them to secure
daughters always equally plant; since
to the daughter, as well as to the son,
may descend something of the domi-
mating qualities of the sire.
Besides, be it said in vindication OF
Judith, that she was superior to the class
in which she had been reared. Women
of that class are too often vindictivei
treacherous, cruel and lying. do not
impute it to them for blame. They are
what their circumstances and education
make of them. The men in the same
class are vindictive, JrGUe, cruel ano

physically they know not fear, hence nc
necessity for intrigue. II it were tc

The mother of this girl had been {
broad-browed, large-eyed, pretty anC
gentle woman, with natural perceptions
Of "the good, the beautiful and the true

She never openly opposed her naughty
passionate and jealous husband; neithe
did she ever deceive him; but shame
him often by the digniied patience {
her submission into something like ju;

loved her well and faithfully; mourn

HOW Princes Tell Their Love.

: 1t seems that, at one time, some strip
ling Of prince with ample means, and
who knew that the thing had got to be
done up handsomely to produce an i'm
preston, decided to send an Easter egg
to the damsel of his love, who, in this
case, happened to be princess of the
royal house of Saxony. SO he called a
skilfull jeweller to hisaid, and the order
was given. The result was an Easter
egg such as had never been seen before,
and has certainly never since been
equalled, which to-day is preserved in
the Green vault. Prince and princess
have passed away, but the ingenious
trinket remains to tell how the scions of
royalty told their love in the days of
old. To the ordinary observer it is an
egg, and nothing more. But close ex-
animation reveals line of separation
which encircles it, and further search
discloses spring. Touching this, the
egg shell, which proves to be of gold
enamelled to represent shell, open,
and reveals chick, fedged, with every
part counterfeited, but all of gold,
enamelled. Turning the little fellow
over, and touching concealed spring,
the body opens, revealing another egg
of smaller dimensions. This, also o.
gold, and also enamelled, opens like the
first and now we come to the kernel O.
the whole affair, an elegant solitaire
diamond ring, the stone of wonderful
beauty and clearness of water, ant
worth a small fortune in itself. Tht
writer's memory of genealogical fact
is not SO strong, and as the earlier edi
tions Of the Almanach de Gotha are no
at hand, he cannot say whether the lad,
accepted her princely sutton, but it il
very certain that she accepted the egg
for it is still in the strong rooms of tn
house of Saxony, curious and cost,

TIE Arabian Horse.

The Arabian is still one of the most
distinct varieties of this noble animal,
and also one of the most priced, being
eagerly sought for by the Turks and
Christians in Asia, Southern Russia,
India, and even Australia. In his ma
tive deserts he is still sometimes to be
seen in a half-wild state, though most
probably owned by some of the " dwell
lers in tents peculiar to that region.
But it is the most domestic breed with
which we have chiefly to do, and which
is carefully preserved in pure state by
the chief of the various tribes, though
it is supposed not so free from stain
now as was formerly the case. The
head of the Arab horse is the most
beautiful model of nature, giving the
idea of courage tempered with docility
and submission to man better than any
other animal, and even more so than the
dog. .r ...f..... -t...4
1t is seldom, perhaps, that so 5eauti-
full frame exists but examples are
not wanting of such union of elegance
with perfect good and useful points.
The length and muscularity of the fore
arm are also remarkable, and the set
ting on of the tail is peculiarly high
points which have been generally trans
mitted to our thoroughbred horses, des-
cended from Arabian blood. Many
modern horses of this breed are exceed
ingly wicked and full of tricks, espe-
cially in India, where an Arab horse is
synonymous with kicker and bitter,
and plunger; but at the same time he is
valued because he is always good
hack, and bears out the heat of the
Indian Summer without injury. To
the modern sportsman he is valuable
because he faces the elephant and tiger
better than any other breed. In height,
he is generally a little under fifteen
hands high I; and in color, either bay,
black or gray. ...r
The Barb is an African horse, Of
smaller size, but of coarser make than
the Arabian, and evidently fed OH more
nutritious food. AS his name implies,
his native land in Barbary but there is
always great doubt as to what particular
breed the imported horses belong, be,
cause they are carried considerable dis
tances from their native plains, and are
also then mixed in blood. 1t is gener
ally supposed that the Barb is the pro
genitor of one root of our best Englisl
stock, and the Godolphin Arabian, al
he was called, belonged to this blood
but the disputed point cannot possibl!
be settled, as there is only one argu
ment in favor of the superstition, found
ed upon his enormously high crest
while his superior size, being fifteel
hands high, argues just as strongly il
favor OF his Arab descent. But tn
Spanish horse is, no doubt, descended
from the Barb, thus having been carrie,
into Spain by the Moors when the
overran the country and, as the,ap
pearance of the Spanish horse is total
opposed to that of the descendants Q
Godolphir, it is still stronger proof G
the Arabian ancestry or, at all events
an argument against his claim to Bal
barry as a native climate. .a' '..' a
