TOLD BY SENATORS,
Two Stories illustrating Prairie Morals
Where Lumber Is Concerned.

Nhcro Lumber Is Concerned.
Old Philetus Sawyer, the genial Senator
from Wisconsin, who can tell good story
as well as any OF them, amused his COL
leagues and the New York Tribune CORE

the other day by referring to the smartness
Of local preacher near his home, who, he
says, is as sharp and shrewd at bargain as
he is prompt to attend to the spiritual re-
Quirements Of those in affection. This
preacher was called upon once to attend
funeral and on returning home remarked,
with no small satisfaction, that be had "a i'm
proved the time by making fifteen dollars in
a wood trade while the mourners were view
ing the corpse"
This little lumber story reminded one Of
the Nebraska Senators of one of the most
powerful and effective revivals that ever oc-
CURED in the West at little town in his
State not q thousand miles from Omaha,
where every male inhabitant, with single
exception, was converted. The Inhabitants
OF the town were, as rule, wretchedly
poor. The president Of the railroad COM
pany on the line of which the town was
situated, touched with sympathy for their
condition, approached one of the principal
men and inquired if they ever had any
preaching out in that section.
Preachingtn said the person addressed.
"Oh, yes; we had great revival here last
winter, and all got converted but one man,
who said be could not JON the church until
he had stolen limb enough from the rail
road company to fence his farm"

A MONTE-CARLO ROMANCE.
Love and Life with Gold, and, Failing
Gold, LoYo and Death.

Love and Life with Gold, and, Failing
Gold, Love and Death.
A young married man Of Lyons fell in
love with young married woman, says
George r. Sims in the London Referee
They met secretly, adored each other, and
agreed to fly together-to put the seas be-
tween themselves and their families. But
there was slight difficulty in the way.
They had very little money for long jour-
ney. and they wanted to be far, far away
IN America for choice. Then the idea came
TO the man that they would take their small
capital Of a few hundred francs and so to
Monte Carlo and make it into fortune-a
fortune which would enable them to Live In
peace and plenty on far-of shore. So 1t
came that one day, with a small box and
portmanteau, the fugitives arrived at Monte
Carlo and put up in a little hotel, where for
eight francs day you could have bed and
board. They had only a few francs with
them. In the letter which they had left be-
hind they explained that from the first their
arrangements were complete. They fore
saw the possibilities of the situation. They
would play until they had won enough to go
TO America or they would lose all. And If
they lost all they would die together and
give their friends no further trouble about
them.
They were few days only in Monte Car
10. They risked their louis only few at
time, and they spent the remainder OF the
days and evenings in strolling about the ro-
mantle glsdes and quiet pathways OF the
beautiful gardens, whispering together OF
love and looking into each others eyes.
The end came quickly. One evening they
went up in the soft moonlight to the fury
land of Monte Carlo. They entered the
Casino. They had come to their last few
golden coins. One by one the croupier's
remorseless rake swept them away and
then the lovers went out of the hot, crowded
rooms, out from the glare of the chan
deliers and swinging lamps into the tender
moonlight again. Down 1.-The Staircase Of
Fortune arm in arm they went along the
glorious marble terraces that look upon the
sea, on TO where at the foot of the great
rock on which Monaco stands there he's the
Condamine. 1t was their last walk together.
The lovers were going home to die.
That night, in some way which was I'M
able to ascertain, tue guilty and ruined man
and woman obtained some charcoal and got
il into their bedroom. They then closed the
windows and doors and prepared for death
They wrote Ietter--a letter which an
official assured me was so touching that, as
he read it in the room where they lay dead,
the tears ran down his cheeks. Then the
girl-she was but girl-dressed herself in
snowy white and placed in her breast sweet
bouquet Of violets. Then the charcoal was
lighted and the lovers laid themselves out
for death, side by sido, and passed dreanily
into sleep, from sleep to death, and from
death to Judgment.
1t is not a moral story; it is not new
story l have told it simply as it hap
pened.

fingered his watch-chain nervously and
shuf1ied his feet uneasily from awkwardness
to awkwardness. 1t was plainly a difficult
matter for the young master TO censure a
bright-faced beauty of seventeen, much as
she might deserve rebuke-
At length the stiffness became unendura-
BILE to Ida, so she turned toward him and
said:
"Welll''
He tapped the desk before him nervously
with his pencil.
You look very sad" she said, in a low
tone.
"Do you know whyl"
Dyspepsia, may be, or possibly remorse
that you didn't divide up that strawberry
pie you had for dinner"
"1ds, Ida, can you not speak seriouslyw

Young head, and SO you have your way and
sometimes it is way not improving 10 the
discipline Of the school"
The merry brown eyes softened and the
full, red lips of the pretty maiden trembled,
but she was 10th to betray any feeling and
determined to divert the conversation into
some other channel until she recovered her,

When he assigned the lesson In COMPOST

noon, the task set out for Ida Graveson
was 70 write new Psalm Of Life. Ida
scrutinized her teachers face carefully,
but 1t was marked by its usual placid gray
lty and she was uncertain whether this was
q punishment or merely en- experiment to
verify his suspicion that she was the Of

After the assignments had all been read
Ida held up her hand.
"What is it?" inquired the master.
! Ida rose, twisted her handkerchief and
hung her head in pretty affectation OF child

delightful anticipation of "a time" for
scarcely day passed In which Ida did not
play some prank that was more amusing to
her fellow-pupils than TO her teacher.

asserted Ida, land can't be expected to
come down with one fell flop from the eagle
heights where l soar to the commonplace
details of life like Benjamin franklin"
"There are even greater depths; take
care that you do not fall into Them" said
Mr. Whiting, partly-vailed twinkle in his
eyes.
During the progress of the history lesson,
Ida, being called upon to give a sketch of
the life of Benjamin Franklin, said:
HE was q man in a broad hat and ben
evolent countenance, who achieved fame
by ornamenting kite-strings with keys and
lightning"
Next may try the same" said Mr..
Whiting, "while Miss Ida writes on the
board a classification of the topics in the
lesson"
AS Mr.. Writings back was toward the
black board, Ida seized the opportunity to
caricature Mr.. Franklin and the kite in a
manner that convulsed the class with
laughter. AS the master turned his head
the drawing vanished in a twinkling.
Miss Ida will please remain after the
close Of school to night; l wish to speak
with her." said the much-tried teacher.
Young men usually speak to father
first,'' wrote Ida on the board. OF course
the class laughed again uproariously this
time, but the words were quickly erased,
leaving the ster as greatly mystified as
before.
The school-h house was in quiet country
place, and, after all the pupils but the
refractory one had passed Out, an Cypress
i've stiffness reigned.
Ida sat In calm silence awaiting what the
master might have to say. She made
beautiful picture with the summer sunshine
falling across her crinkly red-brown hair.

And the master moaned her folly,
With grief he could not hide;
So at last OF melancholy
And strawberry pie-he died"
Mr.. Whiting laughed softly and SAID:
'sThat is not a bad performance for little
girl like you, but the poor master had even
more reason to feel melancholy than the red
haired maiden ever guessed. VIII she try

"Perhaps he bad bunions."
"Try again"
