SETTING TYPE.
Hark to the click

Hark to the click
OF the type in the stick
They fall and they meet with monotonous
sound
As swiftly the fingers that seize them 60 round
To hurry them into the stick.
With a click, click,
There they are in the stick
What do the types tell the world as they standl
Here it is satire; there eloquence grand.
Weak as nothing when single, combined they
command
A wonder-power in their click,
AS in order they march into the stick
Look again in the stick.
10 the workers OF evil they sorrow peeia a1;aa
Away from the click, but the earth cannot hlde
Them away from the click click,
OF the types falling into the stick.
AS they click, click, in the stick,
Monarchs and tyrants their marshalling dread;
They know that to freedom the types have
been We'd
And the visions they see are in color blood red,
And they shake at the sound OF the click.
Hank, the noise from the stick!
Guilt flies from the sound in q tremor OF fear;
But guilt cannot hide in the day or the night,
Though it try every method of hiding or flight,
From the sound of that terrible click
Forever that click, click.
In the gas that makes the day-shine or in the
suns light,
That stick is forever increasing it's might,
And seeming to say: Here we stand for the
right!
Oppressors beware of the stick
Those gray-colored types in the stickl
States, monarchies. potentates, pashas and kings,
The painter, the player, the poet who sings,
Stand in awe of these poor, little, dull, leaden
things,
And the ominous noise of the click.
But these types in the stick,
To the just and the true all nations around,
To the whole of mankind where the virtues
abound
Most welcome to such is the musical sound
OF the types with their click.

a dozen dripping people. and behind the
glass windows lay four corpses. A sheet
was drawn over each up to the neck. The
clothes that they had worn in life were in
heaps at the side OF the couches Three of
the bodies were men, and their clothes
were those of the Paris workman-blue
blouse, vizored cap. rough trousers and
shoes. The fourth body was that of u girl.
looked at this one, and again I was i'm
pressed by the continual romance which
seems to shroud this city. / presume 1t is
because we have grown to associate the life
OF Paris with mystery and crime. from the
literature of the country that we get at
home. At any rate, O story as terrible as
any by Dumas arose before me as l con-
templated the face of that dead French girl.
Her features were of that saucy. delicate
type OF beauty that you get in one of Van
Beers pictures of modern Parisiennes-the
nose slightly tilted. tho mouth curved into
an almost perfect Cupids bow. The long
laehes were outlined in jet black against the
round. white cheek. The hair was bronze
in color and dropped in great cloud over
the temples and ears. On the slender throat
there was broad. deep cut.
studied that face for ten minutes or
more. The crowd kept passing through the

pity for the poor girl behind the glass. Her
clothes down at her side were Of excellent
quality, the shoes. stockings. and under

SAYS Washington correspondent of
the New York San: 1t is beginning to
dawn upon official circles that there are
two very pretty young women estab-
ished in the White House, the Presi-
dents daughter and his sons wife.
Mrs. Mckee is attractive, and clever
talker. She possesses to marked
degree the charm of naturalness, a
charm that, above all other charms,
Mrs. Cleveland also possessed. Mrs.
Russell Harrison is already remarked
as the one upon whom Mrs. Cleveland's
mantle of youthful grace and beauty
has fallen. Mrs. Fred Grant was re-
garded as the most beautiful daughter
in-law of President when she went to
the White House bride in General
Grants second term. Mrs. Grant and
young Mrs. Harrison are totally oppo-
site types of beauty in coloring. Mrs.
Grant is the purest type of brunette,
and young Mrs. Harrison is the purest
type of blonde. But they are alike in
slender, well-rounded figure, and the
beautiful poise of the head.

WIS. He said she had been found dead in
her room the night before by her landlady
in the Rue Montmartre. 1t WAS undoubtedly
suicide, as the knife with which her life was
taken lay close by her side. Her lover had
deserted her. probably, and the landlady
had said she would have to go out to-mor-
row. Then. pointing at the heap OF nice
clothes. the Frenchman said:
The little things always dress well. DO
they not, monsieur? There is enough to
pay her rent for week. But she never
thought OF that. All! they kill themselves
altogether too soon. the simpletons."
When went out of the morgue into the
rainy street group of young women of The

Material in a Steamer.

The amount of material necessary in
the construction of 1,200-ton steamer
is simply astonishing. 1t takes 10000
ineal feet of lumber, twenty-five tons
for hog chains, and in all fifty tons of
iron, 100 bales of oakum to calk the
seams, and fully IS, 900 worth Of paint.
The cost of such boat at the yards
ms about $50, 900, to which an addi-
,iona1 $4,000 may be added for fur
nishing. 1t takes generally about
