BLAND DOLLAR PORTRAIT.
A Goddess in a Philadelphia Kin
dergarten School.

Philadelphia Record.
Each scholar in the Kindergarten
training school who owns Bland silver
dollar possesses first-rate picture of
his or her teacher. The confirmation
by the board of education OH Tuesday
of the selection of Miss Anua w. Will
Jams as instructor of philosophy and
methods of kindergarten training is the
latest laurel in the already fame-be-
strewn path of that lady. whose classic
features have been stamped on millions
of silver disks. Ten years ago Miss
Williams suddenly became famous
when the interesting announcement
was made that her face was the original
of the Goddess of Liberty on
that much-abused, much-admired,
and equally as much dis
liked Bland dollar. The discovery was
due to the efforts of Record reporter,
who worked eighteen months in tracing
out the original of the Goddess. The
conceivable obstruction in the way, but
unsuccessfully. .rhe story of Miss
Williams connection with the stamp
upon the coin is interesting. In the
early part of 1876 the treasury depart
ment secured, through communication
with the royal mint of England, the
services of clever young designer and
engraver, named George Morgan. Upon
his arrival in this country the young
engraver was located at the Philadel-
phia mint, and was assigned the task of
making design for new silver dollar.
After months of patient work he COM
pleted his design for the reverse side of
the coin, on which he represented the
American eagle. His attention was
then turned to the other side,
and his first inclination was
to place on it fanciful head
of Goddess of Liberty. But the young
designer was too much of a realiSt to be
pleased with mere work of fancy.
Finally he determined that the head
should be the representation of some
American girl. and he forthwith dill
gently searched for his beauteous ideal.
Through a friend who had spoken to
him of the classic profile of Miss Will
iams' face, he sought and obtained her
acquaintance. Miss Williams was with
difficulty induced by her friends to pose
before an artist, and after five sittingS
the design was completed. The young
designer declared that the profile was
the most perfect he had ever seen in
England or this country. Miss Will
Jams. around whom this web of romance
and fame clings, is very eStimable
and modest lady, She resides with her
mother and aunt at 1923 Spring Garden
street. She is still Il pretty blonde, with
pearl-like complexion, is slightly below
the average height, and possesses a
graceful aplOmb figure.

DEPEW,S SEANCE.

Good people who have been troubled
over the Democratic greed for office,
and have supposed that Mr.. CLEvE-
LAND made pretty near clean sweep
of Republican officeholders III his four
years. will do we'll to read with some
deliberation the report Mr.. DEPEw
gives of his recent protracted seance
with the spirits of the White house.
Note what he learned from the presi-
dent about the imperious hOrdes that
sWarmed down upon him from every
rank and file of the Republican army,
demanding Office, with hints of dlrks.
Let special niche be reserved for the
discovery of MIR. HARRISON that when
he came in he found that his predeces-
sor had put Democrats in only about
one-thIrd of the offices. Figure on these
data, and it will be found that the good
reform Republican administration has
made about as many changes in three
months as the bad, greedy Democrats
did in four years.

her majesty into forgetting her part!
So the queen began prompting herquite

Miss Terry did not take the cue, and her

almost too much for Miss Terry, but,
with violent effort to suppress her

herself and gracefully accepted her cue

CHICAGO, July 1.-The traffic officials
of the Western and Northwestern roads
met again to-day to discuss the rate sit
uation. The committee appointed Sat
urday to labor with the Chicago, Bur-
lington & Northern road officials, with
view to inducing them to cancel their
special commodity tariff, reported a
failure. The rates are to become
effective July 5. The old lines will
doubtless be compelled to follow suit.
but it was decided to postpone final &C
ton until tomorrow, when another
meeting will be held. The Chicago. st.

threat to put the same rates into effect
to Missouri river points if they are
adopted between Chicago and st. Paul.

CROSSING SEA AND CONTINENT
An English Girl Meets Her Lover
After Eleven Years of Separa-
zion.


After Eleven Years of Separa-
tiOn.
New York Tribune.
The skeptics who are asking whether
marriage is a failure will be interested
in one which came to light yesterday.
Two young people, after being separated
for eleven years, travelled 5000 miles to
meet each other in order to be married.
A gOOd-looking young man, thirty years
old and decidedly English in appear
ance, was seen on Thursday afternoon,
impatiently pacing the pier OF the Gun
ard line, awaiting the arrival of the Gal
liza. AS the steamer swung into the dock
he saw pretty, blushing young woman
on the deck, standing by an English
officer. The two young people had been
expecting each other, as everybody
knew from the way they tossed kisses
to each other, and every man on the
pier instantly became eDyious when the
young woman landed. The young
couple and the officer, John Stevens, of
the Gallia, hurried Off together, and at
o'clock called on Rev. &. ii. McAnney,
pastor of the Washington Square
Methodist Episcopal church, where the
wedding took place.
He gave the name of Martin George,
of San Francisco, and she gave the
name of Caroline Jenkyn, of st. Ives,
Cornwall, Eng. They seemed extremely
happy, and their story indicated that
they had reason to be. Mr.. George is
mining operator of San Francisco, and
came here from England eleven years
ago. He met his bride fifteen years ago.
when they were school children together
in, bn of
family. being the only daughter, and
her father and mother could not
give her up until the young people de-
cided that they wanted to be married,
even if they had to travel 1000 miles to
do it, Mrs. George decided to cross on
the Gallia because Officer Stevens is
brother-in-law of her husband. The
story of her romantic trip got out, and
the passengers and officers showed her
a great deal of attention. ''She was the
prettiest girl on board" said Fourth
Officer Morris, land everybody admired
her and her pluck" Mr.. and Mrs.
George will go west in day or two.

A Church Choir Joke.

Washington Critic.
There is more fun in church choir
than good many people imagine.
Some time ago one of the young ladies
in the choir of fashionable church
felt disposed for lark. During the
services she whispered over to the
organist: ''Why don't you play The
Turkish PATROL for them to go out?"
81 don't know The Turkish Patrol, !"
replied he. "Well, I'll get it for you"
Sure enough on the next Sunday he
turned over his music to play the exit
march and found 'The Turkish Patrol"
humping out from under his fingers
almost before he knew it. He couldn't
stop where he was, and it wasn't
for HIM to spoil lark anyhow.
His attention was very soon called
to the fact that the pastor of the
church was waving his hand violently
He looked back and his heart went down
among the organ pedals. There was
the reverend shepherd of the flock geSt-
iculating in the most emphatic manner,
evidently for the purpose of stopping
the music. The playing ceased in the
middle of measure.
81 wish to call the attention of the
congregation" said the pastor, ''to
fact which forgot to mention. There
will be social meeting of the ladies'
society of this church at 1880 O'Clock
next Wednesday evening""
The organist's heart bounded in joy
full reaction, and 1.-The Turkish PdtroP'
was played to finish with vim and
vigor that it had seldom known before.

CHIVALRY OF THE PRESS.

While the eye has been rowing the
past few weeks, like the busy bee in
the garden of honey-distilling flowers,
over the seraphic fiuttering out of the
academic shell of the sweet girl gradu-
ates at the commandments, the stated
optic may have rested little at VaSSar,
where NINA VAN ZANDT and other fit
full lights have cleaned in varied hues.
The papers have said more of Vassar
than of any half-dozen similar institu-
tons, and yet at the recent commence
ment one of the longest pieces, deliv-
cred by one who winds very old and
sweet name into the modern levity OF
MAMIE, poured the cauStic Walls of her
oratory over the press. She annihilated
the newspaper, as it were; and yet the
unconscious or meekly forglving jour-
nal had no unamiable response, and
pictured its lasher as the fairest of the
fair, with white robes and radiant
charms that might excite angelic envy.
The press cannot be goaded by the
speech OF rosy lips into ungallant retort.
1t does not mind the thorns when
famed by roses.

A SUMNER GIRL.

She wears a saucy hat,
And her feet go pit-a-pat
AS she walks.
And the sweetest music slips
From her merry, madding lips
When she talks.
She fascinates the street
With her CATERS, trim and neat,
Made of kid.
For they twinkle as they pass,
Like the riilets in the grass.
Half way hid.
Her skin is soft and white,
Like magnolia buds at night
On the Dough.
But, for fear she'd be too fair,
There's freekle here and there
On her brow.
Dimples play at hide and seek
On her apple blossom cheek
And her chin.
Slyly reckoning to you,
''Don't you think it time to WOO?
Pray begin"
Then her winsome, witching eyes
Flash like bits of summer skies
Ger her fan,
As if to say, We've met;
You may go now and forget
If you can"

UGLY APPOINTMENTS,

1t is not surprising that president
should occasionally be imposed upon,
and make some appointments to office
of men of bad records and palpabie I'M
fitness. When Mr.. CLEVELAND was in
the White house, some of the papers
and people who were prejudiced against
his style of politics used to take ap-
parent delight in parading, turning
over, counting up and multiplying the
few cases in which he had made bad
selections. 1t would not be surprising
if HARRISON also had now and then a
bad man, who had, perhaps, left the
Democrats for Office, imposed on him,
if it had not been expressly stated that
he personally, and so exhaustively in
vestigates every case that he needs a
couple of days boating Saturday, to re-
cuperate. Then. too, he appoints
always to please himself. The civil
service commission, the other day, was
forced to report a good deal of looseneSs
in the management of the Indian
apolis postoffice in the hands of
a special favorite of the president.
LII w Cob VI oul
statements are made of number of
the Harrisonian selections. BURDETTE,
the assistant district attorney who has
charge of prosecutions in the United
States courts, is himself defendant in a
suit to recover $4,000 he is charged with
embezzling as school commissioner;
DAWSON, the principal deputy marshal,
is under indictment for bribery at the
last senatorial election, as is also the
superintendent of the new public build
ing at Charlestown; and equally I'M
savory odors hang about others. The
trouble is not perhaps so much with the
intentions of the president. as with the
fact that the periods between the ex-
cursions are too brief to get all the
hungry people under the focus of the
presidential microscope,
