to like ii, for about every second hug
she would look up in his face with a
very touching expression of mingled
love, trust and edo it-again-please"
on her face. And he, whenever this
opportunity offered itself would
IMPRINT A LARGE KISS
Upon her upturned face, and gaze
down into her eyes with a look of
love that was truly touching. Be-
tween the fervldity of their love and
that of the theatre air, the perspira-
ton was rolling down their faces
in miniature cataracts. But that
made no difference they would lay
their cheeks together just as affec-
tionately as if they had been on the
ivy-clad porch of an East Oakland
cottage, with the balmy air of sum-
mer evening playing about them. 1t
seemed to me that kisses under such
circumstances must have been rather
salty. No doubt they were; but he
seemed to enjoy them for all their
saltiness, while che fairly rev.
elled in them. On the table in
front of them was large quart ves-
sci of beer. Between hugs and kiss
es he would hand her tie beer she
and pass it TO him, and he carefully
selecting the place where her rosy
lips had touched the glass, would
also drink. And though this sort of
thing was kept up during the whole
evening and was seen by a large
number of people, no one but Chi
cago and paid any particular at
tention to it. Once in a while some
old, steady German would glance
that way, and his face would light
up with a meaning smile as he
thought of his own exploits in the
same line " so many years ago ;"but
but that was all. The lovers
KEPT UP THEIR CARESsEs
Just as if there wasn't another per-
son within a thousand miles of
them.
This custom of several persons
drinking beer out of the same vessel
is not confined to lovers. One sees
families solemnly sitting around
table, with the beer circulating from
hand to hand, and each taking his or
her share in strict CONSCIENTIOUS ro-
tation. In such cases there is no
promiscuous grabbing at the vessel
and ''first come first served" APP
preparation of its contents. Like
everything else here in Germany,
there must be strict routine about
the thing. The father OF the family
always takes the initiative. He
slowly and calmly takes his drink.
Then the vessel goes to the mother.
She drinks, and passes it to
the eldest son. From the eldest son
the vessel passed down the line of
sons in the order of their ages. Then
It circulates among the daughters,
beginning with the eldest and wind
ing up with the youngest, whence it
goes back TO its station before the
father. Of course, if the first drink
ers are thirsty, the others do not get
their full share. But there is gen.
orally a sort of drinking honor dis
played which assures equal justice
10 everybody concerned. And it
does the younger portion of the fam
ilv no good to look with longing
Eyes upon the beer, for it begins to
circulate only when the father feels
thirsty.

Who strove and who failed, acting bravely a silent

Whose youth bore no flower ON its branches whose
hopes burned In ashes away,
From whose hands slipped the prize they had grasped

With death swOoping down DER their failure and all

While the trumpet Ia sounding triumphant, and high

The World furnishes some strong evidence TO
show that the Erning Foh is owned by railroad
corporation, and that Carl Schulz, the great re-
former sold himselfto the same corporation when
Secretary Of the Interior, and hence his place at
the head of the Evening Post The evidence, ac-
cording TO the World, is that the lands of which
the Government and the people were the owners
were disposed Of by stroke OF the pen of Secre-
tary Schurz and turned over to Henry Willard the
president of the Northern Pacific Railroad, and
the party who furnished the money to purchase
the EtCliRg Post The World adds that the land
given to this great corporation would almost
make two States, each equal in to the State of
New York. This attempt TO turn over the public
domain of the people to n corporation is only
equaled by the colossal and historic SaZOo fraud.

THERE is no room for a doubt that the
country is more prosperous to-day and
far better off in all rospects-eXccpt as
relates to the public debt-than it would
have beeRif the arrearages act had not
been passed. No man has paid dime
more of taxes than he would have paid
had no such law been enacted The only
difference is that some millions have
gone toward canceling an obligation to
soldiers and the widows and orphans of
soldiers-have gone into all the channels
of trade, blessing not only the immediate
beneticiaries, but the entire people and
country-that would else have been paid
out to the holders of our bonds. Not the
least among the causes of our general
prosperity must this outflow of currency
be accounted, And let it not be for
gotten that the debt on which it has been
applied was as sacred as any that ma
ton ever owed.
