second Ward improyema nts,

The Second Ward Taxpayers I'm
proyement association held meeting
last evening at the corner of Earl street
and Hastings avenue. There were about
forty persons present. Ben Dtvis pre-
sided, and p. S. Mcneil acted as secre-
tary. The feature of the meeting was
the probability of widening Earl street
and making it link In the Indian
Mound park boulevard. In this line of
thought FL. L.: Gray, P. Schiffman and
James Mcdonald spoke. The subject
of better street car facilities and i'm
provements in water supply, sewers,
etc, was also discussed.

AS SEEN BY THE EYE"

WnaG mas become Vi Ctie gOOu Oiu he-
publican party of st. Paul? 1t was GER
tainly not represented in the conven-
ton held on Tuesday of this week.
None of the old reliaples of the party
were present, with the exception of
Walter Ii. SanbOrn, vino was obliged to
furnish ''tOne" for the entire cOnyen-
ton. Lit is sad commentary upon mu-
nicipal politics when the party falls
into the hands of such NEIL as Sam
LOWenstein, Sam Nichols and Joe Bur-
ger, while all the experienced men like
Stanford Newell and Albert Schetfer are
relegated to the rear to make room for
Harry Johns, E. E. Mcdonald and other
kids"
The ticket-speaking of the NOM
inees for city officers aside from the al
dermen-is weak one, and is diSap-
pointing to the solid Republicans of the
city. Col. Klefer is an old and re-
spected citizen and gentleman. So is
Robert A. Smith, and between the two,
it each had his record to make, there
might be- no preference, But Mayor
Smith has been tried and under his adj
ministratiOn the city has prOspered, and
voters who have the interest of St.
Paul at heart are not likely to relegate
him to private life for the mere purpose
of trying an unknown man who at the
best would be no better than Mr.. Smith.
Sam NicholS-off1cehold by right OF
birth, and chronic politicians the
nominee for comptroller. just why the
Republican party is obliged to provide
office for the Nichols family at
their beck and call is not clear.
sam Nichols holds state Office at pres
ent, and that ought to be sufficient for
any man. 1t is rum0red, however. that
he is now running so that, ii elected,
he could turn over one OF the offices to
his son. AS there isn't any possibility
IF his being elected. however, there is
no occasion to worry about it.
/ Conrad Miller is the nominee for
treasurer. Mr.. Miller is the man who
was knocked out for the. Republican
nomination for sheriff by Ed Bean, two
years ago. He is most estimable
gentleman, but is not well known. and
considering the fact that Mr.. Refs is al
ways on duty in his office, never bothers
himself about politics, and serves the
city faithfully, there is no likelihood of a
change being made.
i The Republicans are dead sure of one
thing, ana that is all. They will elect
Nv. Fl. Sanborn alderman from the
Seventh ward. He has no opposition.
Aside from this one Office, the Demo-
trats are likely TO make pretty nearly

CRIMINALS HAVE VANITY.
Their Conscience Rarely. Developed Befor,
They Are Caught.

Their Conscience Rarely. Developed Before
They Are Caught.
London Saturday Review.l
Criminals are vain almost to a man, and
to use the revolver is to mount almost with
bound to the top of their ladder of fame.
AS to conscience, they develop it sometimes
when caught, but very rarely before, the
very possession of such a monitor warning
the hesitating from trade which nowadays
involves so often murder as an incidental
instrument OF escape. Besides, the age in
huences criminals as it influences all other
men, and ''the age" for reasons we do not
pretend fully to comprehend, is losing some
of its ancient and natural horror at murder,
and has transferred its dangerous wrath to
those cruelties which leave their victim
alive. This phase of feeling will pass, the
instructive sense OF right and wrong COIN
Gliding in this case with the permanent de-
Termination of humanity to keep itself safe:
but for the moment it is powerful, and with
criminals as with the rest.
How can burglars think murder worse
crime than burglary, when educated men,
incapable of hurting any created thing, talk
of parricides as victims of heredity and
pity their "blighted Iives?" Or how can
the fear of the gallows coerce them, when
they see that capital sentence rouses the
whole nation to discussion, and great par
ties, as in the atrocious Lipski case, to pro-
test, while the much more terrible, though
less dreaded, sentence of penal servitude for
life scarcely evokes a comment? In Texas,
ii is said, men of the desperate class will
commit any crime but one with light hearts.
1t takes exceptional daring even there to
steal horse, for the penalty for horse steal
ing is instant death at the hands of the
democracy, which has no pardon for that
supreme offence against its own safety and
profits.

Of Bethany People of Jerusalem and the
neighborhood 1 appeal to ye! was L not
correct in the value put upon this coward
ly and deceitful fellow? ?"
At this moment there passed by the group
q man and q woman, whose faces were
turned in the direction of fSimon the Leper's
house. These were Ariella and Baruch,
happy man and wife, on their way to sorrow
with the sufferers in the bereayed house.
Their faces wore the subdued and gentle
sadness of sympathy, but the rich personal
joy of health, freedom, and youth and we'd
lock burned through their veil of neigh
borIy feeling like the sun blazing through
a mist. 1t was like looking upon souls In
Paradise to look upon those two.
"There," retorted Amos of Gethsemane,
turning upon Malachi with curling lips,
there you have your answer. Look to itP'
"But how say you," cried another con-
temptuous voice, that the Nazarene mas al
lowed his friend to die like any common
neglected man?"
'His will know not" answered Amos
solemnly. But know that it is the will
of wise and holy man. More 1 need not
know"
"Verily, thou art easily satisfied, laughed
someone scornfully. At this moment Enoch,
the lad who was sent to guide blind Baruch,
ran up to the gossiping group with exciting
news.
1t was reported that the Nazarene had
been seen that morning approaching Beth
any.
Now this was the fourth day since the
death, the third since the burial o. Lazarus.
Within the house of Simon the Leper the
first spasm Of grief had subsided into the
first alternative of quiet exhaustion.
Martha's pale and saddened face, sub
dued by new gentleness, bent over the d.
rection of the midday meal with a conscious
effort to estrangc her thoughts from ner sor-
row. 1t seemed to Martha that if she could
once stir up a stupid maid to provide for the
mourners decently she should feel better.
But Mary sat in the darkened room where
her darling had died. Her face buried in
her hands, lay upon the sacred bed whence
thew had carried him to his tomb. She
lay upon the hard floor. Her long fair hair
fell about the crouching figure. The case
ment was closed. Light came in through
the cracks in thin, radiant lines, on which
the notes of dust danced like little spirits.
Mary watched them now and then DULY.
She had ceased to weep. She felt physi-
cal coldness at her heart which made her
understand what men meant when they
said, my heart is turning to stone" She
repeated to herself, Lazarus is dead"
Suddenly there was a stir in the silent
house. Voices started and hushed. Foot
steps fell and ceased. Something had hap
pened below. But what then? Nothing
could happen now that mattered any more.
Mary did not raise her head to listen. Then
Martha entered the room. She hurried, but
she trod softly. She came up and put her

WAITING FOR THE MASTER.


What then? Was Jesus of Nazareth
AFRAID? Did he stay away from Bethany,
forsooth, lest he should be stoned? Did he
allow his chosen friend to die, without even
the most ordinary services of friendship, be-
cause he himself was not ready to run sacred
risks? Or, wary, as pretenders are, did he
remove himself lest the weakness of his
claim should be exposed by this conclusive
test? For whatever reason. did he not dare
to show himself among the friends, now the
mourners of Lazarus?
HE is shrewd fellow" cried Malachi
the Pharisee. making the most of his op-
portunity again to command the ears of his
neighbors, and these, alas, the tickle people
easily gave him. "This upstart is no fool.
He estimates the intelligence Of the citizens
of Bethany correctly. He knows that we
are not to be duped for our pains. How
now! If this Jesus is what We have be-
lieved him, could he not save his intimate
friend from an untimely death? Would he
not, if so be he could do the deed? People

and want of fuel to stop at one of these for
the night. The occupants of the few houses
speedily stepped from off their little Veran-
das into their dugout canoes fastened to
one of the supporting pillars of the structure
and came out to us where we had attached
the bow of the steamer to the juttlng branch
of fallen tree which rose from the surface
of the river.
Other canoes from the villages We had
passed gathered around us too, and fresh
detachments from up river came down to us,
bringing frewood to sell for beads and cow
ries, and big Jumps of gum copal, which
make capital blaze. We were surrounded
for hours by these poor creatures, anxious to
obtain few of the much-coveted possessions
of the white men; and, thanks to the sup
plies of wood they brought us, were enabled
next morning to resume our journey. Day
alter day our journey led US between swampy,
overfowed banks, every now and then
bringing us to villages erected on piles
standing in the water similar to those we
had passed.
MISERY AND wRETCHEDNESS.
The inhabitants of these wretched river
dwellings were poor In the extreme, and led
a terrible, hunted existence, exposed on the
forest side to the ferocious attacks of the
Ou AA'SA
ing from the raiding canoes of the more
powerful villages lower down. AS we
journeyed higher up the misery and wretch
edness seemed to increase, while the num-
Der OF villages we encountered grew less
and less. Sometimes from few tumbling,
broken-down structures standing in the
silent, still waters of some little inlet lead
ing to the deep forest would come voice
hailing us to stop. and q single man would
put off to try and intercept us,
AT last, after many days of this, we
reached point beyond which the natives of
Mompono, the last village we had seen,
told uswe should find no villages and no hu-
man beings. For three days we steamed up
the ever-narrowing reaches of the river, its
current increasing in force as it grew
smaller; round sharp corners, where our
bows were driven into the opposite bank
and the funnel got entangled in the branches

hausted nature. How delicate hand it
was, how reserved how tender

began Ariella in steady tone, as il nothing
had happened. Ariella did not talk of
Lazarus. She proceeded at once, for she did
not sit down, nor have about her the air of
person who meant to remain for a call of
coincidence. II must consult either Martha
or thvself upon certain matter"
martha has gone FORTH" said Mary,
eyasively, still without looking up.
''She goeth to the grave to weep there"
replied Ariella. '"The neighbors told me
thus as 1 passed in at the door, Mary
made no reply. She did not care to discuss
the true nature OF Martha's errand. ArielIa,
perceiving this reserve, fastened to say:
"a fugitive hath sought refuge with us,
at the house of my mother and Baruch, my
husband. Last night she came unto US like
hunted animal painting from the hunter,
and we received her, and did shelter her,
for we knew not what else to do unto the
miserable creature. She feeth from the
palace
''From the palace! OF Annas?'' Mary
lifted her hand suddenly.
''She is a slave of Annas, the High
Priest" replied Ariella, observing Mary
with gentle keenDess.
'Oh A sIaYeP' Mary's face fell wearily
again.
''She telleth strange story" continued
Ariella in a low tone, ''and she hath suffered
unto death. Knowest thou, Mary, aught
to advise me concerning the poor soul? Shall
we shelter her?''
"Shelter her?" said Mary with sudden in
terest and earnestness. "Yea, shelter her.
Arlellai Shelter any woman who feeth to
thee from the palace in the name of misery,
and OF mercy"
Ariella breathlessly. Trust me, Mary. 1t
the night when the calamity began. Baruch
said unto me: Shelter her in the name of
the dead"
whispered Mary. The two women clasped
hands, and without further words ArieIIa
glided away. Mary's heavy head fell down
again upon the bedside. She cared not Tor
this fugitive. What did it matter? What
was the life of slave? Lazarus was dead.
But Lazarus might care. Whoever she was
this Zahara-she and her plotting sery-
ants, who had cost the life too precious to be
set in the same balance with the inmates OF
hundred palaces-Lazarus had asked il,
Lazarus had said: Love and shelter"
Hours passed. Mary sat on in the dark
and dreary room. She had the tempera-
ment which does not, because it cannot, con-
quer grief by action. All her strength
must come through reflection and religious
faith. She must think herself and pray
herself, not work herself into peace. The
worker and the dreamer are always at odds,

with his knees to spring it to its full COM
pass, then blows into it again until it has
the rigid tension of drum. He at last
closes the opening with string and pitches
it upon the water. To enter his boat, or
rather to mount it, he places himself across
the buoyant skin on his stomach, using
short paddle on one side and his feet as
paddles on the other. One large skin will
buoy five or six men, but it will not balance
