ALGER IN LOVE.
The Course of it Did Not Run smooth at
First

Chicago Mail Washington Correspondence.
Gen. Alger, ofMlchigan, was here the
other day. His pocket-book is now
heavy, his check is good for millions,
his face looks happy, and his heart
seems whole. 1t wears, however, the
scars of a youthful romance, and he
will never forget the troubles of his
bOyhood love. He was law student
at Akron, o., and he fell in love before
he had finished Blackstone. He had
only money enough TO live on, and his
lady love was the daughter of rich
but hard-hearted father. This man
had but a slight opinion OF Russell
Alger and he had no better opinion OF
the Law. lie was won't to say that Russ
Algcr would never amount TO anything
and every morning ne said to his
daughter that she had better drop
Alger for he would never earn his salt.
1t was when things were III this con
ditiOn that tine girl gave party. She
invited AlEer. HIS clothes were poor,
however, and there We're no suits for
rent IN Akron. Aiger did not dare TO
20 to the party with poor clothes, and
ne finally borrowed a suit from broth
er lawyer. lie wore it 70 the house and
danced until morning ia it. 1t hap
: ened that his friend had left the town
Tor a VISIT and Alger strutted around
for a full week n his borrowed clothes.
The old man, however, learned the
story and ue went home and gave hls
daughter ID understand that he must
give up Alger at once. lie made such
"a fuss about the matter that she drop
ped MIN at once and year later mar
RED one of his friends. Alger, how
ever, was soon comforted. He married
a friend of his old sweetheart and
moved with her 20 @ little town in Mich
gan, where he nQlt q log house for
$50 and set ont bls shingle. lie lived
i'm this log house for fourteen years,
but soon turned from law TO lumber
and, though during the first year of
his career as a lumberman he was
obliged 10 borrow 50 cents To help get
ms raft of lumber into the river, ne Is
now worth millions and It Is said he
made SO 900 900 atone turn last year.

No DUTY Is now levied on coffee, but

Representative ODonnell believes IN
retaliation. He has introduced a bill in
the House providing for the collection
OF duty on coffee equivalent to the
export duty levied by certain countries.
Coffee coming from those countries not
exacting export duties, his bill provides,
IS to be admitted free of duty, and
when the nations now collecting duties
on coffee exported to the United States
shall abolish the same, no duty shall be

tried to be cordial, but felt that it was .
hollow mockery. 1t was impossible to
keep the reproach out of my voice when
I spoke of having expected them to din

"Yes. we were so disappointed" said
Mrs. Dominic; "but every time we

AMERICAN MECHANICS.

Their Condition L. Much Better Than That
of Their European Brethren.
Mr.. George Watson, first vice-presi.
dent of the Master Builders Exchange,
Philadelphia, returned home in the
early part of the year from a nine
months sojourn in foreign countries.
During his absence he visited the prin.
cipal cities of interest upon the other
side of the water, and made 'investiga.
tions which are of value not only to
builders, but to all interested in the in.
dustrial education of the American
youth. The following is the picture
which Mr.. Watson draws of the Eu.
ropean mechanic:
The mechanic of Europe is laborer;
he looks like a laborer, and certainly
felt proud Of being an American me.

artists. The stonemasons and plaster.
ers, in particular, are artists, but in
Salzburg l saw them trudging along,
wheeling their tools in hand-carts. In
San Reno saw them handle stone in
a curious way. Four men would lift
. stone of great weight and set it on
the head of a fifth man, who would
carry it to the point on level or to the
floor of building where it was to be
laid, and then tour other men would re-
move it from the head of the carrier
and set it in its place. All through
Germany and Austria saw women mix
ing and carrying the mortar for the ma
sons and bricklayers. They do not use
hods, but kind of tray which they
carry on their heads. In Zurich saw

weight was hauled up by rope drawn
hand over hand by gang of men. who
would let go the rope when they wanted
the weight to drop. This method did
not work as we'll as ours. In Munich !

quented by workmen and talked with

workmen rarely had meat to eat more
than once a week. Their dinner con-
sisted of beer, little brown bread and

t5T5e FL ~, -terNAl AnCostOr.s3 ~ =

Emperor williams Madcap Russian Ma.
Il =, III +, ternal Ancestor.
There are Rougon. Macquart charao.
teristics In tho genealogical tree Of the
German Emperor which give . key to
the vagaries Of his conduct. Paul l.
was grandfather Of the late Empress
Augusta, and therefore direct an.
cestor Of William H., Of whom George
~. was the great-grandunole, and
George III. the great-great-grandfather.
His Imperial Majesty is twice descend
ed from Frederick, Prince Of Wales, and
four times from Josiah the Pious, Of
Saxe-G otha, who was certainly "pecul-
lar" and transmitted some of his pecul-
iarities to the late Grand Duchess Of
Sake -Coburg.Gotha, tho great-grand-
mother of William I. She was fighty
and self-willed person. There was
flightiness in the Brunswick Wolfen-
buttels, and whole hive Of bees oper-
!ated in the Emperor Paurs bonnet.
Yet Paul had cleverness and was
carefully educated by French savants
He had feverish activity. Though
travelling in his time was difficult and
fatiguing, he rushed, as Compile du
Nord, all over Europe with his wife in
o post-chaise. Austria, Italy, Switzer.
land, France, Belgium, Holland, the
minor courts of Germany and Poland
were visited in less than no time by
him. The Compte du Nord went so
fast that those who were with him said
they saw nothing until they came to
Paris but the clouds Of dust which his
post-chaise and train of carriages raised
on the roads. He had q dozen ideas Q
day. Caprice alone governed his
actions. On mounting the throne he
exiled his mothers last favorite, Zuboff,
to Siberia. Soon afterward he recalled
him and loaded him with favors. The
slightest neglect of his orders was
heavily punished. Every one was, in
passing before the imperial palace,
bound to salute it, even when Paul was
not there. He hated the pot
hat, which he thought sign OF
Jacobinism, and his police were instruct
ed whenever they saw one to knock it
of the wearer's head. He could be 20.
lite, amiable and. even witty; but no.
body could enjoy these good qualities,
because ho was so changeable. One OF
the signs of respect that he exacted OF
his subjects was that they should, when.
ever they met him in the street, get out
Of their carriages to salute him. The
rule applied to mon, women and chill.
dren. He went about incognito at night,
like Haroun Alraschid, to see that his
police were doing their duty, and was
fond Of having his troops called up at
night in the midst of winter to review
them. He could be humane and gener-
Gus, or, according to his freak, the re.
verse. The incoherence of his orders
and actions was such that nobody could
guess from what he had done what he
was likely to do the next moment-Lon-
