The London of To-day.

We speak of the rapid changes in
our American cities, but nothing like
the changes OF London can exist with
us. Growth is not a change of this
kind. Paris alone, in certain respects,
can show such metamorphoses as
London. But on the whole, Paris, as
l saw it at this first visit to the Old
World. was more like the Paris one
sees now than was London of 1920
like the London of to-day, The mere
question of growth is a minor matter.
London was not the metropolis of the
world in 1850, and now it is. Then
It was only huger provincial town.
The Londoner in general measured
nothing but himself, and nobody
came to London for anything but
hardware, good walking boots, sad
dies, etc; now it is the entrepot of the
civilized world. The worlds fair of
1851 and succeeding similar displays
OF what cosmopolite industry can do,
the common arrival of ocean steam.
ers, rare at the time I am writing of,
have changed the entire character OF
London life and business and the tone
OF its society. It is not merely in the
fact that 48, 200 houses were built in
the capital IN the last year, or that
you find colonies of French, Italians
Russians, Greeks in it, but that the
houses are no longer what they were
inside or out, and thus the foreigners
an assimilated Ingredient in its phil
osophy. All this has come since 1850
Atlantic Monthly.

FATHER RYAN's POEM CREST"

My feet are wearied, and my hands are tiSd,
My soul oppressed
And l desire, what have long DESIRED
Rest-only rest.
IT'S hard to toll, when toll is ALMOST vain,
In barren ways;
IT'S hard to SOW, and never garner grain,
In harvest days.
The burden OF my days is hard to bear,
But God knows best;
And I have prayed, but vain has hsen my
prayer,
For rest-sweet rest.
IT'S hard to plant in spring and never reap
The autumn yield;
IT'S hard to TILL and when tbs titled to weep
Ger fruitless field
And so cry weak and human cry,
So heart oppressed;
And SO [ sigh weak and human sigh,
For rest-for rest.
My way has wound across the desert years,
And cares infest
My path, and through the flowing of hot
tears
pine for rest.
And I am restless still; twill soon be Ger;
For, down the west
Lies sun is set ting, and see the shore
Where shall rest.

Jaehne Sentenced to Prison,

The court OF oyer and terminer New York
City was filled with spectat tors anxious to
hear Judge Barrett pronounce sentence up
on AID Henry w. Jaehne, convicted OF
bribery in connection with the Broadway
railroad franchise. The district attorney
moved for sentence to be passed on the
prisoner. Judge Barrett then sentenced
the prisoner to nine years and ten months
in state prison. He said:
There was not a doubt in your guilt. It
was universally conceded that the case
against you was clear, convincing and over
whelming. There was no doubt OF your
guilt, but there was q doubt concerning the
chances OF convicting you. The first doubt
seems to have arisen from Il lack OF faith
in the efficiency OF our jury system, the
zeal OF our public prosecutor and the eff
cheney OF our police. These doubts will be
dispel!ed by your conviction. It teaches
an important lesson. The majority OF our
people in public life have not their price.
Your offense was not technical bribery, but
stupendous bribery for the furtherance
OF a stupendous transaction.
In your case the maximum penal
ty OF the law will not be i'm
posed. Under recent statute, wherever
the maximum penalty is abridged, the
prisoner has the advantage that, in addi;
ton to his commutationforgoo cd behavior,
he can leave the state prison between
March and May. Appeals have been made
to me to be mercful in your case. I am
not unmindful OF the sufferings OF your fam
lily. No unduesseverity will beexercised to-
ward You. I have therefore instructed the
sheriff not to remove you Immediately to
the state prison. You will be conveyed to
the city prison, where you will have an
opportunity to consult with your counsel
in regard to the pending appeal in your

We are in London again, for the

an old lady, who had in her girlhood
well-knoWn the town in which spend
the summer. She told me that many
years bfore, my house had had the
reputation of being haunted, but that
the rumor had been hushed up by the
landlord, and forgotten. And she
told me this story:
The house was occupied by a young
husband and wife. They loved each
other devotedly, but the husband was
unreasonably Jealous OF his brother.
One evening he accused his wife of de.
ceiving him as to her love; she was too
wounded to answer his bitter words,
and he went out. Two hours later he
had drowned himself, and his dead
body was brought into the house. into
the very room where his young wife
was playing while waiting for his re-
turn. She lost her senses from that
day, and during the rest of her merci-
fully short life her music was her only
apparent consolation.
"And," added thelandlady, "she is

music can sometimes hear her.

Miss Folsom's Grand father Dead,

Buffalo Special John B. Folsom of
Folsomdale died at his home in that place
on the 2Othinst. COL Folsom was seventy
three years OF age, and very active, en-
terprising man. He had accumula ted
a comfortable fortune. His grand
daughter, frankie Folsom, is President
Cleveland's bride, elect Col. Folsom was
one OF the m ost Observation-Disclosures OF Wyom-
ing county and one Of the oldest residents
,of'the town of Sheldon, lin which Folsom

tour. She is one of the heirs OF the estate
Omaha Specialized. Folsom owned an
undivided half in the estate OF his late
brother, Benjamin R. Folsom, valued at
over half a million dollars, and consisting
OF Omaha real estate. This estate goes to
the heirs, and as Miss frankie Fol
som, the intended bride OF President
Cleveland, was the favorite child of Col.
Folsom, she will very likely receive the

Why Sherman Left Washington

Gen. Sherman's departure to st.
Louis while general of the army was
due, as he explains in his memoirs, to
his dispute with Secretary Belknap as
to their respective functions. He dis
closes that after the death ofGen. Raw
Inns, President Grant applied to him
to suggest some names Of Western Vol
unteer Generals from whom good
successor as secretary Of war could be
taken. He named in writing Gems.
Belknap, Dodge, Fairchild and
sprague, and Bell6nap was chosen. At
that date Gen. Belknap had cas- fair
a fame as any officer Of my personal
acquaintance" but he took the same
position that Rawlins had held as to
the rights of the war department over
the staff corps, departments, and
bureaus, and on one occasion treat
ed Colonel Audenreid, who had car
ried him a message from General Sher-
man, with what the aide considered
extraordinary "rudeness and discour-
tesy," causing him to request never to
be sent to Gen. Belknap again. Gen.
Sherman was glad, under such circum-
SCauCeS, 70 make d "TRIP TO Europe;
and on his return, still finding the sec
rotary with power undiminished, he
removed to St. Louis, whence he re-
turned to Washington after Belknap's
resignation. AS to his retirement for
age, under the compulsory statute, in
1884, Gen. Sherman implies that this
did not at all trouble him. II had al
ways intended" he says, "to divide
time with my natural successor, Gen.
P. II. Sheridan, and early notified him
that [ should, about the year 1884,
retire from the command OF the army,
leaving him about an equal period of
time for the highest Office in the army"
Hence, when congress gave him full
pay, by exceptional legislation, as a
retired officer he was more than salts.
