At the meeting Mr.. Bruce missed the
face of Sister Page, and wondered at
her absence. Her children never knew
why she remained at home, but the
strength she gained alone in prayer
/ that evening showed itself in her after

/ had learned to set a watch over heI
tongue. and rarely, if ever, was she
heard again to make disparaging re-
marks concerning her fellow disciples.
Bertha and Willie were not converted

Bruce left Spalding, his heart was glad

agitated here over the development

OF the French legation and young lady

These two young foreigners, according
to the story, attended brilliant recep-
ton or evening party at fashionable
residence in the west end oil Washing.
ton during the latter part OF the social
season. They paid special attention
to the young lady spoken OF and man
aged to engage her at the supper table
after all the other guests had lett the
supper room. They piled the young
lady with wine till she was well und,r
its influence. They then induced her
to accompany them up stairs to pri-
yate dressing room, where the three re-.
NAMED some time. The young men
spoke OF the matter subsequently at tb-
club and from this the facts got out.
They were members OF the Metro.
politan Club, but have been cut entire
iy by the club because of their conduct.
The young lady's family found out the
secret and have taken her from the city.
There is great indignation here. and
both attaches Of these legations will un.
doubtedly have to leave. 1t is
probable they will be promptly dismis-
sed from their positions. The young
lady's name is suppressed because OF the
standing OF the family and a desire to
protect her as far as possible.

THE STAR ROUTE.

Violations Of the Postal Service Called to
the Attention OF the Grand Jury.
WAsHINGroN, June 2l.-Judge Cox in
the Criminal Court, in delivering his
charge to the grand jury to day, made
the following references to the Star
routes: He said their attention would
probably be called TO the violation OF
the postal laws. The matter had not
been brought before him in such form
as to speak definitely in relation to 1t or
of the names of the persons involved.
These matters were very important for
the purity of the Government service,
and would be maintained as far as pos.
sible by the law, but in considering
them they must cast ASIDE all bias or
anything that would raise the presump'
ton OF malice on their part. He then
directed them to retire for consultation.
