Why He Pretsnds to Love the Old Sol.
dBsrs Just at Present.
After ridiculing wounded veterans
in his pension vetoes and going fish
ing ON Decoration Day, President
Cleveland made a discovery. What
he discovered was the fact that there
are not only a great many veterans
left in this country. but also large
number of other citizens who ardently
sympatize with them. and whose mex.
tinguishable debt Of gratitude to them
for their sufIerings for the country's
preservation makes them keenly feel
and promptly resent any slight or in
suit inflicted on them.
Mr. Cleveland has gotten these facts
through his epidermis. and as this is
Presidential year and he wants to be
reelected. he is going to cultivate the
veterans. He has consented to review
the Decoration Day parade in Brook
lyn. He will look down from grand
stand with patronizing air as the vet
Grams march BY him and leave him be-
hind. as they left him behind when
they marched to the front twenty
seven years ago. Perhaps he will utter
a few sententious generslities on the
duties of patriotism. The veterans
will please not forget that Mr.. Candi-
date Cleveland stands ready to assure
them of his most distinguished consid-
eration-this year.
Why pretend. Mr.. Cleveland? No.
body will be deceived by it Nobody
expects it Of you. 1t is unreasonable
to expect q man who stayed at home
writing herd books to feel his heart
beat faster and his blood Jingle with
the fire that burned the shrines Of
treason to ashes. Not only does the
coin of hypocrisy not pass at par in
this country. but j: will not pass foR
any thing of value. 1t will come back
to you for the bad penny that it it,

TRAPS FOR THE UNWARX.

Efou0S FefpetfatOd Upon CnSuspoctin1
Women In Search Of Employment.
Working gentlewomcn are finding
ont the many frauds by which they
have been swindled. and charitable as
socistions are taking pains to publish
their cruelty deceitful character. One
trap is that which advertises to give
out fancy work for women TO do nj
home Mt = good return for their labor.
From ten to fifteen dollars week are
guaranteed, and on the circulars sent

ulent advertiser. For these dollar is
required, and If the woman sends the
money she receives small package
containing q bit OF cotton velvet. six
inches square. with n spray of flowers
stamped upon it a similarly stamped
piece of felt. little silk thread of two
or three colors and one needle. The
whole package cost perhaps five
cents. From the instructions" it il
usually impossible to tell what tho
work is to be. and most women give up
in dispair. But those who persevere
in working out some result are lured
on to deposit FIVE dollars. and in a
short time learn that they have been
swindled.
Another scheme is for a woman to
advertise for girls to help her in max
ing scarfs. paying them nothing while
they are learning the business When
. girl learns whatlit:le there is to learn
and wants wages, she is discharged and
another ''lesrner' is put on in her
place. It is said that the pay for max
ing scarls has been reduced one-half
within two or three years by this COM
petition Of unpaid apprentices. An
other audacious swindle is that of a
woman who advertises to teach lace
making for i've dollars. and her victims
number hundreds every year. An ex-
tensive swindle is the telegraph in
struction bureau. which leads the dupe
to understand that she will be taught
to be an expert telegraph operator in a
very short timo. and will be given a
salaried situation afterward. Many
girls have been swindled out of forty
dollars to fifty dollars apiece in this
way.

I-SPRING.

4-SfhlNG
New life Is stirring in every bough,
And fiutter of wings Is in the air,
And my eyes with happy tears are dim.
As I watch, in the tall old trees cleft limb
A busy mother bird that there
Fashions her nest OF moss and hair.
The days go by. and the leaves grow green
On the tall old tree where the nest Is mace;
The mother bird folds her tireless wings.
And my heart as watch her, sings and
sings
It's happy song: and Is not afraid
For the sweetest Joy is a Joy delayed
H-SUxMER
The patient brooding days are DER,
There's stir Of life in the soft brown nest
And share It too. the mothers Joy,
When my weak arms hold my tiny boy
And gather him closely to my breast
When he softly murmurs, and sinks to rest
o, the round green world and the clear blue
sky,
How fair they are in these sunny days!
New cares may come and fresh demands
On the weary heart, and the feeble hands,
But strength comes, too and a song Of praise
Goes up with the birds sweet morning lays.
m-AUTuMN
The leaves are dying and turning brown.
Inc red sun peers through the morning mist
And u mist clouds over my boys blue eyes.
That once were clear as the summer skies.
o. the throbbing pulse in the tiny wrist!
And the fever flush on the cheek kissedl
Outside in the tree. mid the falling leaves,
The mother has taught her brood to fly;
They must fee away to q warmer cline.
From the coming chill of the winter time,
The thought holds back my heart-sick cry:
How can live II my boy must die!'
IV-wINTER
An empty nest on tossing bough,
When the eddying snow fakes round 1t
sweep.
And they fall. I know. on tiny mound
In q corner nook of the church yard ground,
Where my baby lies in his last long sleep.
And away to my quiet room creep
For the heart will ache and be numb and cold,
Frozen by grief. like earth's hard clay),
Though Our Father careth, and knoweth
best
When each bird must fly from its mothers
nest,
And we know they are singing far away,
In the golden light Of fairer day!

On examining the premises, he found
that an entrance had been apparently

which 10 never looked. There was n
pile OF fresh yellow clay on the floor of
the cellar beside hole about three feet
square and two feet deep. Irving WAS

ingE, and very likely the money was
the accumulated savings of years, He
says that the money was stolen April
80, previous to which he had had some
difficulty with his wife, who left him,
but who has since returned.
She had three SONS by her 6rst hua'
band, one of whom Irving q short time
ago took into his confidence and to-
gether they buried the money. On the
night of tho robbery Irving went out of
the honse for short time, and on his
return found the money gone. Officer
Murphy says that there Is no reason to
suspect Mrs.Irving's son of the robbery.
The police ara still investigating.
