Oxfordshire yesterday to look at place

was so delighted with it, that | am eager
to see you installed there as mistress"
'But how about business, then?
''The fact is, i have worked hard
enough in my day, and now / mean to
give myself comparative rest, and become
a silent partner only in the firm of Be
loe & Roper"
Euphemia felt sudden fash mount
burning to her very brows, whilst the
other went on:
81 can run up to town now and then,
and see how affairs go on; butyour father
will manage very well without Inc, no
doubt"
"Then you mean to trust him with
everything%
"Unless you think the work will too
much for him."
ooh no" answered Euphemia, with an
odd sense of guilt; my father likes plen-
ty to do. Twas only wondering whether
he would always act up to your views of
matters"
"Why not? His interest will be my
interest"
"True; but even partners do not al
ways agree"
II shall not interfere unless | am quite
Obliged and your father has been longer
in business than l have"
"You know best" said Euphemia,
quietly, "but should be sorry for you to
do anything as my lover, which, as my
husband, you would regret"
"You seemto forget that ] am Scotch
man." said Mr.. Roper, with a smile.
81 like the Scotch"
"Thank you" replied Mr.. Roper, look

admission of this kind from you, because

She bent forward toward the fire
thoughtfully; and he took advantage of
her abstraction to draw his chair close to
hers.
'Euphemia, you have not answered my
question vet"
"What question:"
"When we are to be married"
"I can not see that it need be very
soon."
because you do not love me as ] love
you" he answered, sadly; "and, there

hourly presence as long for yours"
81 told you yesterday that you must

Perhaps Euphemia had hoped that see
ing in her certain reluctance to tn,
marriage, he might have offered he
release, and yet have been willing to ac
cept the partnership with Mr.. Beloe al
the same. But if she had any hope 0
this, it soon forsook her; for Mr.. Roper
drew her close to him once more, and hel(
both her tremulous hands captive.

long pause. "Only be good to me, Mr.

"My dearest" was the murmured re

Mr.. Rutherford Il. Hayes, the
man who for several years past mas
been dctinq President OF the United
States has Just vetoed the army APP
preparation bill, the passage OF
which made the extra session ne
cessary. The difference between a
fraudulent President and his parti-
sans on the one side, and the masses
of the people, as represented by a
Democratic majority in both Houses
of Congress ON the other, is that
Radicals want the Federal bayonets
present at elections for Congress-
men, while the Democrats are op-
posed to all such improper and un-
constitutional measures. Anything
that is calculated 10 influence or
overawe the American voter i'll his
free choice for the officers to whom
he wishes to entruSt the manage
ment of our public affairs, is not on
" very distastetul to every free
American citizen, but extremely
iistasteful to all except the few stall
warts who would seek To perpetuate
their political power at all and eve
~ hazard. The Democratic House
and Senate attach Il clause to the
army appropriation bill repeating
the law so obnoxious to the people,
and for that reason His Fraudulen-
cy, Mr.. Hayes vetoes the bill.
The issue is very clearly drawn.
Bayonet elections or free elections.
Let the Democrats in Crongress
stand firm, the country will sus-
tain them-all the vetOes of fraudu-
lent Presidents to the contrary not
withstanding.

OUR SCHOOLS.

Our common school system, as
originally designed by the trainers
thereof, is a good one. 1t has its
friends it has It's enemies. The
latter can be accounted for only up.
on the suppositlon that the dissatis-
fed parties know no more concern
ing the schools than has been told
them. The success;of the schools
will depend upon: First-The apt
ness of pupila. Second-The assist
ance of parents. Thlrd-The abili-
ty of teachers. Concerning the pn-
pills we are aware that q marked diff
ference exists in the capacity to ac-
QUire and retain matter to be learn
ed. This one may he bright and
impetuouS and need restraint rather
than any urging that one will like
ly perform q task or commit q lesson
only upon the most persistent effort
although once thoroughly learned
it is never effaced. Parents should
cooperate with teachers willingly
and not under protest. They should
defend the rights and interests of
their children, but at the same time
uphold and assist to maintain school
discipline much lasting good can be
accomplished in this way. But up
on the teachers depends the bulk Of
the work. We judge OF his ability
not by his scholarly attainments
alone, not merely by his power TO
handle and dispose of difficult sub
jectS out rather by that natural
Unborn, not to be acquired power to
assist his pupils in their, TO them,
seemingly unSeleSs meanderingS
through the labyrinth OF school
work. Allow the teachers whom
you engage to assume control in
your embryo institution OF learning
to consider himself only a helper
and guide, and you insure its sue
cess.
Children, young as they are, do
not fail to appreciate the thousand
and one little acts of kindness that
it is the province of any one to be-
stow and, that cost nothing but Uhe
time. 1t is too frequently the case
that teachers, especially young men,
bers of the profession, consider
themselves entirely elevated, er-06i-
GERS.
Human nature is always at a pre-
MUM, and nowhere is it more so
than in the school room. What
we want all over this broad land are
more helpers and less masters. The
reign of the rod necessary as il may
appear to some. is rapidly losing its
prestige and should be discarded en-
tireiy.
AS we now have board of di-
rectors in the Borough we shall cer-
tainly expect n better adminiStra-
tion of school affairs than heretofore
and earnestly request that the gen
tlemen referred to will do just what
is right and do it in time.

FROM WASHINGTON.
The Army Bill Passes The
Senate.
special dispatch to THE TINES.

Special dispatch TO THE TIMES.
WASHINGTON, ApriF25.
The army appropriation bill, so
far as the action of Congress is con-
cerned, is at last out of the way,
and the first agony is over. At 1
O'Clock this afternoon the bill passed
the Senate by vote of IL to so.
Eyery amendment offered by the
Republicans, even for the purpose
of making the bill grammatical, was
voted down in accordance with the
determination stated by Senator
Beck at the beginning of the debate.
that 10 amendment would be &C.
cepted with would necessitate the
return of the bill to the House of
Representatives. Within an hour
of the passage of the bill, the same
being reported to the House, the
fully enrolled bill previously prepar-
ed, was signed by the Speaker: and
sent to the Senate for the signiture
Of the Vice President, the Senate
remaining in session for that pur-
pose, as all bills must Designed in the
presence OF the House and Senate
respectively. In the absence Of Vice
President Whe, ler Senator Thurman
signed the bill as President pro. tenn.
of the Senate. Thus the curious
circumstance occurs of leader OF
the Democrats signing bill in the
Senate, while the President or the
Senate, elected by the people, IS a
Republican. This is also the hrSt
instance in d great many years, II
not the only instance in the history
Of the government, where an appro-
priation bill has passed the Senate
without a single amendment.
WASHINGTON, April 27.-Specu-
ldtiofeontinueS tonight, with re
gard TO the probabilities OF the ac-
tion of the executive upon the army
bill, winch was laid before Mr..
Hayes ON Friday evening. The I'M
preston is wide spread that the bill
will be returned to Mr. Hayes from
the war department Tomorrow with
whatever suggestion tie secretary Of
war may consider consistent with
the public interest 10 make thereon
and that it will be fun 1ther referred
to a special cabinet meeting to be
held either tomorrow after noon or
regularly on Tuesday next. Inquiry
tonight from various sources fails
to open any official utterance as to
the result of Mr.. Hayes consldera-
tion of the bill.

INTERESTING 10 THE WIVES OF.
BANKRGPTS.

A startling principle of the law
has Just been enunciated by the Su-
preme Court Of Pennsylvania, in
the case of LaZear against Porter.
It was stated case to test the ques-
tion of the right of the wife of a
bankrupt to her dover interest in
the real estate of her husband when
the same has been suld by the as
signee. It was held by the Court
below that sale of real estate by
an assignee dIyeSted the dover in
terest of the wife, and this judge
ment is reversed by the higher
Court. This decision of the Su-
preme Court is the most startling
and far-reaching in its effects that
that body has rendered for many a
years. Since the bankrupt law has
been in operation there have been
millions of dollars worth of real es.
tate disposed of lnder it. 1t has
all been sold under the supposition
that the wives of the bankrupts had
TO claims on it. But according to
this decision every living wife of a
bankrupt whose estate was thus
sold can claim and recover her third
OF the property from its present
owner. In other words, the title OF
the property thus innocently bought
by creditors or outside parties, is
vitiated in their hands to the eX'
tent of one third. And the case
may often be worse than that, for
the property in many cases, has de-
preciated greatly in the hands of the
present owners, who nevertheless
may be required to pay back the val
lie of the third as it was at the time
of the purchase. The amount of
suffering that this will cause will
make most people regret that if this
is the law it was not discovered ear
lier SO that while doing justice tc
bankrupt's wives. it should moi
operate t. do equal if not greater in
justice to the people who never wen
into bankruptcy. Reading Times.
