city. Suddenly a song, clear and
soft, came out to them; then it sank
as the dying breath of the zephyr,
gently mingled with the musical
chirp OF some waking bird in a far
away thicket; then all OF the wood
land warblers gathered to take up
the song and pour it ont in won
derful melody, and with it came the
cry of the whippoorwill Leslie had
heard years before Ii Glen Elder.
With rapidly beating heart and
misty eyes he forced his way Ill
with the crowd, 10 see standing be-
fore the footlights tall, sylph-like
form cladin shimnering white. while
upon the soft pink arms and about
the lovely throat sparkled diamonds.
The beautiful, dark, half-spanish
face, the olive cheeks with tint Of the
pomegranate he could not be mis-
taken in, and Leslie knew that be-
fore him stood Lola, the song bird
of Glen Elder.
Hastily pennlng n note and plac-
ing therein the withered spray ofar-
hu5us, he found q messenger and
dispatched it TO the green room.
Presently the airi appeared again.
and 10. his little remembrance of
other days rested above her beating
heart. and as she glanced up, their
eyes met and he noticed the glitter
OF tear drops upon the long lashes.
At ;hat moment his messenger re-
turned and handed him a card. He
arose bewildered, was too happy to
remain quiet. and SO he walked of
beneath the stars. When the opera
was finished he found his way 10 the
hotel where Lola was staying, and
when admitted to her presence she
stood before him with eager eyes and
rosy face while he bent over breath
ing into her willing ears torrent Of
words that told of his mighty love.
For reply she took from her bo-
som and kissed the faded flowers.
Then lifted a smiling and deeply
blushing face, ard said:
Lovely Glen Elderi IN all my
wanderings 1 have never found any
thing dearer than the graves | left
there, or a truer. dearer friend than
be who gave me meFited chastise-
ment, and who, with other lessons,
faue,hr mo tEat of lcva "
IN an instant she was weeping
upon his heart, and he was whisper
ing in her ears words we have no
business 20 know, save chat among
the pet names that came so readily
TO the lips of Il lover he called her
his sweet song bird Of Glen Elder"

AwoMAN's ARGUMENT.
Outside it was dreary and cold and wet,
Inside or the hearth was the bright woo


Outside it was dreary and cold and wet,
Inside on the hearth was the bright wood
fire,
And Larry Iounged happily in its glow
And talked of his farm and the men to
hire;
OF the seed and soil and the planting days,
OF his boys and girls, and their pleasant
ways
While now in her rocking chair by his side
Their mother sat sewing with bnsy skill;
There were stockings and coats and frocks
tomend.
But her needle worked with right good
will
TIL some one knocked al the door, and then
Her parlor was crowded with eager men
They wanted Larry-he must not refuse
The party on every good man had 2 claim,
And the club had got most important news,
Which they must discuss or be much to
blame
And indeed a stranger might well have
thought
That the country had been both sold and
bot,
Then larry stood with an anxious look,
But Lizzie said: What is / all about?
For You see, good friends, tbs a bitter night
And husbands are far better IL than out"
"Well, Mistress. You can't understand the
case,
But we want the right man in the right
place
Then Lizzie looked up with a gracious smile
Il agree with you, friends, and I'll tell
you Why;
'Tis a principal full OF rare good sense,
And exactly suits both Larry and J.
Only this is why state the case:
The right man, Aiisters, in the right place
Is the husband al home in the evening
They bowed TO the wife with candid smile,
And one Of them answered, Men never
would roam
If all of us had such pleasan, wife,
If all OF IA, had such a cheerful home;
And Larry would neither be happy nor right
Ii he left his wife and his home tonight -
And then the house was quiet again
Larry stopped low to his wifes pretty
face:
Dear little woman, 50 wise and so true,
You have made out a most excellent case;
There's daytime for duty Of every kind;
And you may be sure youwill always find
Your husband a. home in the evening.

Judge Advocate SvVafm's Opinion.

To the Editor of the Evening Star.
1t is to be devOutly hoped that the Hon. Sec
rotary Of War will give the subject of Judge
Advocate General Swaims opinion touching
the Indebtedness of officers the benefit of his
deliberate consideration before passing upon it,
Judge Swaim's method would be an innovation
upon the whole practice of the government
from it's inception, besides being fraught with
Objec tiOnable consequences, both to the army
and the public.
In the first place. If delinquent officers land.
unhappy. there are more of them than there
should be- are to be held responsible only to
the civil law. then itwould be but just and right
that their pay should be subject to civil attach
ment as otherwise Judge Swaim's decision
would be simple gift of perhaps hundreds of
honest bills to delinquent officers who are sta
toned in far OFT states and territories and who
are not cOmeatible by any civil authority here.
In the second place the consequences would
often be most discreditable and humiating to
officers in debt who might arrive here Cor
wherever else they are indebted) for they would
be watched for and bounced upon by collectors
and cOnstables at their hotels or boarding places
and dragged by civil process before the magis-
trate, there to be adjudged Gin the presence
perhaps, OF gaping crowd delinquents on
account of some debt about which they NAV
well be ashamed. In some such cases the debts
might be recovered under q Judgment on the
spot but in many others, unless the officers
salary is made attachable. all the creditor could
get would be judgment in his favor which
could not be executed. This of course would
with dishonest officer be a convenient and
even triumphant method of escaping his RESPONSE
bility altogether. But would not such an officer
be spotted thencefOrward to the end of his DAYS.
and would not even the whole army suffer?
Another point arises. Even IL 1t were to be
finally decided that simple neglect or refusal to
pay an honest debt does not derogate from an
officers standing as an honorable man and a
gentleman, what would be the provision in case
the delinquent had verbally or in writing made
sundry promises to pay and failed to keep his
wOrd-perhaps q dozen times running-wOuld
he still retain his Oficial standing as an officer
and a gentleman? Shall falsehood prevarication
and deceptive promises, II they happen to be
exercised about the subject-matter Of a debt,
leave no stain upon an officers reputation? II
&c. then Jdchs descens,.s Auerni might be labelled
over the whole service aye, and the navy, too,
If 1t should unhappily be dragged into the same
system, as might be deemed likely enough.
All trouble and difficulty would be eternally
avoided If officers who know what are their In
comes would contract no debts they cannot pay;
and any attempt to evade the operation of this
plain and simple principle by such continuance
as Judge Swaim's must Inevitably lead to results
| undesirable In almost numberless ways.

The Future of Gas.

Gas is an institution of the utmost value to
the artisan; 1t requires hardly any attention. is
supplied upon regulated terms, and gives with
what should be cheerful light genial warmth,
which often saves the lighting of fire. The
time is, moreover, not far distant. l venture to
think, when both rich and poor will largely re-
and the cheapest of heating agents. and when
raw coal will be seen only at the cOiliery or the
gas-works. In all cases where the town to be
supplied is within say thirty miles of the COL
liery, the gas works may with advantage be
planted at the mouth, or still better at the bot
tom Of the pit, whereby oil haulage of fuel
would be avoided and the gas, in it's ascent from
the bottom of the colliery. would acquire an
onward pressure sufficient probably to impel it
to it's destination. The possibility of transport
ing combustible gas through pipes for such a
distance has been proved at Pittsburg, where
natural gas from the oil district is used in large
quantities.
The quasi monopoly 80 long enoyed by gas
companies has had the inevitable effect of
checking progress The gas being supplied by
meter, it has been seemingly to the advantage
OF the companies to give merely the prescribed
Illuminating power, and to discourage the in
vention OF economical burners in order that the
consumption might reach a maximum. The
application of gas for heating purposes has not
been encouraged, and is still made difficult. in
consequence of the Objectionable practice of re-
ducing the pressure in the mains during day
time to the lowest possible point consistent
with prevention of atmospheric indraught The
Introduction of the electric light has convinced
gas managers and directors that such a policy is
no longer tenable, but must give way to one Of
technical progress; new processes for cheapen-
ing the production and increasing the purity
and Illuminating power of gas are being fully
discussed before the Gas Institute; and i'm
proved burners, rivaing the electric light in
brilliancy, greet our eyes as we pass along our
principal thOroughfares.-C William, Sienae,ss,

From the Atlanta CONSTITUTE
'Have you noticed" said Gen. Hoke, of
North Carolina, the other day, ''the rapid dis
appearance'of one-armed and one-legged men,?
At the close of the war in the south-as almost
every southerner was in the army-men with
out an arm or leg were to be seen everywhere
and on all occasions. In few more years it
will be rare thing to see one. You will appre-
ciate this still more if you notice the next as
sembage of soldiers at reunion or in process
sion on some occasion. 1t is pitiful to see how
old and grizzed they look. The youngest of
them are middle-aged men. Why, the day
surrendered l could place my hand ON my sad

From the New York Sun.
Miss Lucie Laurent, who was recently released
by legal process from her detention in the
Blackwelrs Island insane asylum said last night:
II was sorry to see it published that had said
there is a woman yet imprisoned in the Black
wells Island asylum who is worth 81, 10000. 1
did not say she was worth as much sthat But
1t was reported in the asylum that she was a
wealthy lady. She was certainly very digni-
fed and lady-like person, and although was in
the violent ward with her for two weeks never
saw her violent or unladyiike. heard that she
was brought to the asylum dressed as if for
party in silks and diamonds. These things were
taken from her, and she was dressed in the asy-
lum clothes. She was very dignfed and would
not converse with the inmates. l was told she
was kept there by relatives, who used her money
and that they did not visit her. 1t was the talk
of the asylum that she was an heiress think
her case should be investigated"
