A PALACE or SILENCE.
Tho Sad story of n Beautiful New York
House.

Tho sad story al u tteautifui new torN
House.
There is in New York, upon one of the
most fashionable thoroughfares, a mag
niiicent house, veritable palace, which
can never be looked ut by the sentiment
tai woman without tear coming 10 her
eye because of the story attached to il.
II was designed and built, says the
Ladies Home journal. by one OF the
richest men in New York-the head of
an old Dutch family--for the woman he
loved. Throughout the whole house,
which might have been called "The
House Beautiful, were the colors, fur
nishings, ornaments, and dainty touches
that were the young brides taste.
The ball room, in which she expected
TO trip SO many merry measures, was
walled and ceiled in many colored mar
bles, but the lover himself directed the
building of the porte cochcre, under
which her carriage was TO roll, so that,
stepping out. she would not be touched
by drop of rain or a flake of snow.
Everything was ready; the horses were
paving in the stable, waiting for the
day TO come when they would carry
their new mistress out; the coachman
and the footman had their big white ro-
settles at hand 10 wear on the wedding
day; the house was full of fragrance, for
beautiful flowers were massed 60 please
the coming mistress, and everything
seemed TO be in harmony with all this
thoughtful loving care, for the sun
shone bright, and it was somebody's
wedding day.
Yes; but IL wasn't an earthly wedding,
for when, with quick footsteps, her
mother went 10 wake the expectant
bride, she found her dead. The last kiss
she had given hai been TO her lover the
night before. The last kiss lac ever gave
10 any human being he gave TO her as
she rested in her coffin. But he lives in
the beautiful house and does with his
great fortune deal Of good, all in the
name of the woman he loved. The shut
tiers are never open in the wonderful
house, the carriage has never been used,
no feet have danced in the ball room,
but il and the solitary man are there as
evidences OF the fact that love can so
completely fill the heart that all life is
n thing without it.

Dear wife. the hours seem dull and long
When thou'rt away:

Each act ar thought Of mine Is wrong:

The sun hath lost its golden glow
Since thou art gone:
The sluggish waters seem 10 flow
Darkly and still. nor murmur low
As when together We id row
Or Goat thereon.
Dim clouds cen hide from me the moon.
When thou'rf not here:
No more its soft pale beams festoon
With eiiyery grace my silent room.
but reigns therein "A cherries gloom,
Lonesome and drear.
The rose hath lost It's magic spell;
Thou must return.
The struggling tears will upward swell.
Till eyes grow dim and heart doth swell
And every throb doth seem knell
or hopes that yearn.
No pleasures glad my waking hours;

In dreams alone come sunny bowers.

A Novel Days Racing in Which Religious
Training Showed

Novel Days Racing in Which Religious
Training Showed
SARANAC (Mich.), July 26.-Parson J.
W. Army of the Methodist Church of this vii
lage is the owner Of some trotting stock
In which he has always taken great
pride. Two weeks ago he electrified the
community by the announcement that
he had arranged for some races in
which he vas prepared to trot his
horses against all comers. This announce
ment was heraded far and wide, and the
races which were scheduled for to-day
attracted crowds from all over the State.
The parson, by the way, had announced
that no betting would be permitted on the
events. The weather was beautiful to-
day, and everything at the race-track
was as quiet and orderly as a church picnic.
All the events were balf mile, best two in
three.
The first was half mile race, each owner
driving his own horse. The contestants
started well together, but Parson Arny's
Amy quickly showed the religious training
she had enjoyed and forged forward fam
0usly, coming under the wire in l :20A.
ParsOn Army was greeted with hearty ap-
plause and his little nag was shOwered with
bouquets and good words,
Ir the second heat Amy again came off
more than conquerOr, making the half
mile ia :21. Shout after shout followed
this and the good parsOn raised aloft his
hdhus, as InouBu ueprecatlng the noise or
about to dismiss congregation. However,
he thought better Of it anu the second race
was called.
1t was contest between three-year- -olds
and was participated in by Arny's Boggee
and two other entries. Again the parsons
excellent work showed itself, Boggee taking
the heat in 40. The second heat and race
was won easily by Boggee in IA.
Parson Arny's colt won the third race, it
being walkaway. After the races were
concluded athletic and field sports were par
ticipated in and general good time was
had. In an interview the parsOn said he
had been active in getting the races up be-
cause no one else did, and he enjoyed rae
ing and was sorry it had been so much
abused.

HIS POSITION.
The Feeling Regarding Blaine's
Letter to Frye.
General Belief Regarding His Views on
Reciprocity With South America.
The Secretary of the Interior Orders a Re-
count of the Census of ST. Paul and
Minneapolis.


WASHINGTON, July 26-The feeling in
congressional circles is that Mr.. Blaine. in
his letter to Senator Frye, has strengthened
his reciprocity position, and that it is max
ing substantial headway here, and if it does
not carry, when the time comes in the Sen
ate for vote upon it, the friends of the
Maine statesman will be greatly astonished.
The friends of Blaine declare that he is not
hiSgling as to the precise terms in which re-
ciprocity shall he recognized, insisting only
that whatever terms are employed, they
shall be definite and comprehensive. 1t is
evident that the Pierce amendment to the
Mckinley bill is entirely acceptable to him,
and that, should it be adopted, he will be
satisfied with the result.
The Pierce amendment, it will be remem-
of the year to reimpose the sugar duties
against those countries which may refuse
in return for the opening of the American
market to that staple to open their markets
free to the products Of this country. While
the amendment me cts the issue in an indi-
rect way, so confident is Mr.. Blaine that for
free sugar here Cuba and Porto Rico can be
made open markets for American pork and
breadstutfS that he will consent that
years trial be given the proposition.
Mr.. Mckinley, though he had read
Blaine's letter. would have nothing to say
about it this morning when he was seen
by California Associated Press reporter.
He remembered Mr.. Blaine being before
the majority of the Ways and Means Com
niittee at the Ebbitt House, and that Mr..
Blaine had made very clear and able ar
gument in favor of reserying the sugar duty
to trade on. He called attention to the re-
peal Of the duty on hides and coffee, saying
that mistake had been made in trading on
these. aGd urging the committee not to
make 4 similar mistake rs to sugar, which
was the only thing left to trade on.
Mr.. McKenna said he did not know that
he was ready as yet to go into reciprocity,
as Mr.. Blal ASprOp0sed, but that he agreed
with the argument Mr.. Blaine then made
and that he supported him. He said he
uld not recollect just what countries Mr..
.jlaine spoke of in connection with his re-
ciprocity proposition, but that he under
stood him to be speaking generally of the
South American republics. His talking,
however, was directed to general PROPOSE
zion of reserying the sugar duty to trade
upon in the interest Of extending our mar
The Republican members of the Ways
aid Means Committee who are in the city
had meeting to-day, nominally to confer
about the order of business. They took no
action on that subject, but the question of
reciprocity, as proposed by Secretary
Blaine, was discussed at length. 1t is said
that all the members present expressed
themselves as opposed to the adoption of
either OF the schemes as outlined in the
Hale aud Pierce amendments to the Tariff
Bill.

BLAINE'S POSITION.
His Course in the Behrirg Sea Controversy
Generally Upheld

HIS course IN the Hehr1rg Sea controversy
Generally Upheld
WASHINGTON, July 26,-The Star has the
following double-leaded comment on the
Behring Sea controversy: " Mr.. Blaine's
old-time admirers are well pleased with the
manner and matter of his Behriug Sea cor
respondence. While there has been no
progress toward a settlement of the contro-
versy, the grasp Mr.. Blaine has of the sit
uaion and the vigor of his expressions and
the power of his argument are commented
on with considerable enthusiasm. The YER
bal ag reement which he has tried to hold
Lord Salisbury to was that made with the
Democratic Minister. From Lord Sails
bury's correspondence it appears that the
British Minister of Foreign Affairs had an
idea that Mr. Blaine would be ready to
agree that his predecessor OF another party
lad blundered and that the position of her
Majesty'S representatives had been msrep-
resented. If Lord Salisbury had such an
idea, it was very promptly dispelled by
Mr.. Blaine's vigorous defense of Mr..
Phelps, and the declaration that in him the
United States put its trust.
This has received great deal of favor
able comment by men In both parties. who
admire the broad views and manly course
of the Secretary of State. Lord Sails
bury's attempt TO play upon party feeling
is severely criticized. The contrast be-
tween this subtle attempt on Lord Sails
bury's part and the generous and manly
position of Mr.. Blaine is regarded as most
honorable to the latter.
"a prominent Democrat said to the Star
reporter on this point: "A less able man
than Mr.. Blaine might have seen in this
situation an opportunity to put his prede-
cessor in an unfavorable light before the
country, and to claim all the credit in the
controversy for himself. But he gives Mr..
Phelps full credit and sustains him in
way that must be pleasing to every patri-
otto American. Mr. Blaine does himself
and the country credit in this, and carries
away the honors of the contest. A settle
ment was almost concluded when he took
hold Of the question, and it has now been
thrown back to where it was when the ne
gotlatl0ns were first opened. but Mr..
Blaine has done this He has stated the
contention and the claim of this Govern
ment clearly and strongly-more clearly
than it has ever before been put. He has
worsted Lord Salisbury in the argument at
every point, has put her Majesty's Govern
ment ON the defensive, and has made our
claim the only fair basis for seItleInrnt -,
