The Old Story.

From liarper's Magazines for August
You may call it Irritation or what not,
But don't see that | WAS To blame.
How could know that you loved me,
When You never once mentioned the same
I've walked III the starlight with many,
And have risked my life on the bay,
Yet among them I've never found any
But had something decided to say.
lnu thought that your silence had told mes
The silence that's golden we've heard;
but the glrl Of to-day prefers silver,
Coined into words sweet and absurd;
Fltre are lovers whom there's no mistaking,
Whose language leaves no one in doubt;
There are others who leave ones heart
aching
For II word there's no living without.
Hut since the sweet year has grown older,
Aud you've failed as u special pleader,
Shall be left Oul IN The cold. sir.
Because l WAS not mind-rcader:
ou blame me. think. without reason:
Ii YOU really had something TO say.
What matters the time or the season?
Why can't we be happy-to-day,

FOREIGN EVENTS

The intense anxiety over the condition
of Emperor Frederick already overpoWers
the impression of Emperor Williams fun
eral. In the highest official circles tha
question asked is not what the emperor -
policy may he. but how long he will live
to disclose any policy. Wanton gossip at
tributes to him intentions to change the
personnel of the government in opposition
to Prince Bismarck. In reality so far as
the emperor has yet done anything he has
simply confirmed the official status every
where. Nothing indicates any material
change in the government or external OF
internal policy of Prince Bismarck.
THE government has decided to take no
further proceedings against Gen. Bou-
LANCER for visiting Paris without orders
Gen. Boulanger announces that he will re-
turn to Clermont- Ferrand. He expects
that the minister of war will authorize him
to reside in Paris.
WEDDING party of sixteen persons.
returning from church at Neuatz, Hun
gary, started to cross the ice on the DAN
ube in carriages. When half way across
the ice gave way and the entire party was
drowned.
DESPERATE attempt was made recent
ly by Mexican troops to capture brother
of the bandit Bernal, who was recently
killed at the head of his band. A number
Of the desperadoes were shot down. but
Bernal escaped.
The emperor was at Charlottenberg re-
Gently. The physicians are satisfied with
his condition. The emperor will take the
oath according to the Prussian constitu-
ton.
The Empress Augusta gave audience
recently to the physicians who attended the
late emperor. Her majesty was much
affected during the interview. Sorrow and
anxiety have told heavily upon her.
LAST spring it was reported that. owing
to hunger during the previous winter, sew
eral cases Of cannibalism had occurred at
Little Red River OF Peace River. below
Vermillion. n. ". T. Ii now turns out
that the cannibalism was not caused by
hunger, but WAS the work of q woman who
had turned "Wehtigo" several years ago,
aud who has since killed and eaten twelve
persons. members of her family and others.
She was alive ut last accounts. Indians
and halfbreeds of the northwest are asking
why the government does not take meas
ures against this woman.
THE Prince of Wales. his son. Prince
Albert Victor, the Duke Of Cambridge, and
Prince Christian, Of Denmark. have gone
to Berlin, accompanied by brilliant staff.
