TWO mORNaNGs.

In armor strong the fearless knight
at day break rode away
And from her window In the tower
The lady watched all day.
There stood that morning by the gate
A little page, to see,
Ard wished to be, IN years 10 come,
AS grand knight as he.
All day the idle echoes brought,
Like noIsea in s dream,
The roar of fighting from afar,
The dsshing Of a stream;
And when the stars came, ole by one,
TIL lady could not sleep;
She feared The shad WIS in the room,
She heard the waters leap.
The daylight fingered ere it came,
And hardly with surprise
She beard the tale the servants brought,
With terror in their eyes:
How at the close-barred castle gate
At daybreak they had found
The knights horse, which came dropping
IN,
Weak with mortal wound.
Oh, all tnrlorn and riderless,
Stained with his masters blood,
With human sorrow IN his look,
lie, hurt and trembling, stood.
The lady did not speak. She came
Beside the horse 20 stand;
| She kissed the bride where the knight
Hsd held it in his haDdi
And all that day she longed and feared
To hear the soldiers tread.
When they came marching up the glen
To bring the knight home dead.
She wished the women would not wall;
She hoped that she might die;
She longed to be the little page,
Who hid himself to cry.

The Scienc- Of kissing.

Science, in the last few years, says the
70 thold in this world. 1t has ratified the
dry bones Of old fogyism, made pi out of
WornoUt theories, upset ideas which have
been established for centuries. The latest
and most astonishing fact that has b en- de-
Veloped Is that there is scientific mode Of
kissing. The day when young man

circle ber waist with one arm, get his shirt
bosom full of hair OIL and piroaette his lips

Is no more. Science has proclaimed against
it. and man shudiers but remains silent.
The old style of kissing, which unds like

consequently is rapidly going out fashion
although the N jorIty of girls admit that

tifc method of kissing is to throw the rignt

or the Silent Man. He will undoubtedly
meet with an enthusiast tic reception. The
Columbia Register has this to say:
Paulding received an ovation last might
at the hands of our theatre-goiDg people
Salviati is play from the French, and to
our taste. There are scenes of great
interest and power scattered through the
play. The poisoning scene is one in which
Paul ling exhibited marked artistic ability.
The sufferings of a-gallant young soldier as
he struggles for life underline spell of the
fell potion, and literally tears at his breast
ablaze with the seething poison, was ter
rife.
The scenes throug hout the play in which
the character of the Dumb Man" is en-
acted were more wonderfully life<like in
the masterly rendering of the young actor.
Again, when Raphael Salviati throws of
the part of the DUMB man for the nonce
and rushes to the vestibule, aud shous the
warning to the archers of the palace,
Psulding's acting was superbly effective.

Sewall, as attorney for William S.
Williams in a suit brought by him
against the Western Union Tele-
graph Company and the Union
Trust Company to restrain the pur-
chase and consolidation Of that tele-
graph company by the first named,
the defendant applied to~day to
Judge Sedgwick in the superior
court of chambers for an order for
the examination of the directors of
the Western Union Company before
the trial. He stated in his argument
that the order was necessary IN
order to perfectly amend the com
plaint and make it more definite and
certain. Ex-Judge Porter appeared
for the Western Union and opposed
the motion. He argued that the
plaintiff based his complaint entirely
on the information and belief and
alleged conspiracy concerning law
ful act, and that if the conspiracy,
as charged, was true the effect of the
order, if granted, would be, accord
ing the plaintiff S papers,, to make
the directors testify against them~
selves. The judge reserved his
decision. .
