Kaiser Williams Son.

Here il a recent Berlin story concern
ing small Eilet Fritz the FIVE year-Old-
son Of the Emperor. The laws Of Meum
and Teum have evidently not yet become
apparen. to this young man. It Is relat-
ed that he and the crown prince had
been visiting a lady at Potsdam, and
playing with her children When they
returned the Emperor asked the latter if
he had had a good time.
aOh, yes" he replied, q and they had
such a beautiful little toy mouse that
saueaked and run around on the table.
Oh. papa 1 wish 1 had such a little
mouse ~
And you" said the Kaiser, turning
to Ellet Fritz. do you wish you had
such a mouse ??
"Oh, no. answered the small chap
s. because 1 have that one here in my
pocket"
Great was the horror and CONSERVATION
Of the royal parent. The tutor was at
once reque7tcu 70 taA0 tuS v.ii'@ VA
rectly back to the lady, and the boy or
dered to make an apology for having sto-
len the toy.
OF be went, the beloved mouse still
grasped tightly in his little hand, which
was thrust deep in his pocket. Conduit
ed into the presence Of his hostess, he
said
al have been sent for by my father to
make you an humble apology for having
stolen your mouse" but never a bit did
he take it out Of his pocket or offer to re-
turn it, and not until his tutor insisted
would he surrender the much coveted toy
To his small mind good words we're quite
enough, and there was no seed 70 follow
them with deeds.

The Ideal and the Real.

Twas in the aftergIow. The spring day
had closed ever 50 gently, with the sun
sinking in the west the same old place.,
and nature was waiting patiently for
night to overtake it. Algerncn and An
gelina were looking up house in which
to erect their Lares and Penates and be-
gin the ever-peaceful, eserioyous life Of
housekeeping, etc.
Shall we take fiat with six rooms
and place to slide the ashes into the
cellar?" asked he.
"Ob, dear, no. Let US have a cottage
with three bay windows and beautiful
veranda, where We can sit and watch the
sun go down.
1t would be nice. But what's the
matter with taking the first ten dollar
rent we striker"
lis ever thus. Poetry descends to
prose the moment the pocket book is
touched--Harfcrd Poa.

The Farmers Party.


Fro1 the Indianapolis Journal
It islnot surprising, as politics 20, that
there should be an anxiety in some
quarters to form an alliance with the
farmers movement, even to the extent
Of surrendering party principles and or
gznization. In some Of the Southern
States tie Democratic party has offered
itself a willing sacuhee and has been
swallowed bodily By the Farmers ALI
ance- II has sacrificed its organization
and so-czIled principles to save few Of
ices. In this State the same party BID
for the farmer vote by nominating Tor
Secretary Of safe an alleged farmer who
has swung around the circle in politics
and is not much more Of Democrat
than be IS farmer He bears about the
same relation to the Democracy that the
zebra does 20 horse, and is about a.
much Of farmer as chess Is wheat. He
Is the Democratic bid for the support Ct
the Farmers Alliance. His other name
is Claude Matthews.
The Republican response to the farm
ers' movement IS very different With
out any sacrifice Of principle or dignity,
without going out Of their way to hunt
mp spotted fawn or long-lost brother
with strawberry mark on his arm, they
have nominated for the head Of their
ticket one Of the most pronounced Re-
pubiicans in the State. and one Of the
best known farmers, = man who has
never wavered in bis devotion to Repub-
lican principles and who has never been
anything but a practical farmer. The
price of his farm would not induce him
to stand on anything but Republican
platform or vote anything but Repub-
ican ticket He mas never run amer
strange gods in politics. and does not
now. He is a Republican from way back
and a farmer from way back. That il
the kind Of man the Hon. Milton Trus-
Ter is. His nomination illustrates the
Republican way Of doing things, and
shows how readily and completely it can
respond to all popular demands and pop
ular movements without going outside Of
its own organization. Il is 50 with all
good movements and all practical re-
forms. They can be best accomplished
through the Republican party, and as a
general rule, are never accomplished in
any other way 1t is the best farmers
party, as it is the best party for all other
Glasses

Success in life may depend somewhat
on circumstances, but it depends more

She danced with me-not once, but
many times-quite ignofng her fathers
black looks, and the vry evident dis
satisfaction Of more than one eligible

She seemed to note fheir disappoint-

grew cold, for / thought that so in time
she might deal with me :but determin-
ed to be happy for one night ; after tnat
heaven only knew what might tear us
asunder.
But the hours flew by as only happy
hours can fiy, until at last the reception
was thing of the past
After that, Lillian and myself were
very frequently thrown into each others
society, and g passion strong and deep
at least on my part-sprang up between
us.
We were inseparable, and We had sworn
only to live to be united. We read class
ic poems to each other, and when the
Sorrows of Werther were traced line
by line she would shed tears of grief
Ours seemed an ecstacy Of love and pas
sion that could never die.
One day was detailed on a case that
compelled me to cross the Atlantic, and
after an absence of six months, in which
/ was successful in working up" the
case, | returned and left for LiIlian's
home, full of love and hopeful anticipa-
tions.
On reaching there saw Lillian look
ing from a window. Her face, with long
fair hair hanging negligently before her
breast, seemed the fairest on earth TO me-
l tried to climb up the vines as l saluted
her with kiss from my hand.
When she saw me, her face grew paler
and she looked at me with cold stare,
saying:
You come too late. am married to
another Do not let your sorrows be as
deadly as those Of poor Werther."
She laughed low, mocking laugh, as
her face disappeared from the window,
and thought heard fall.
That was my death wound.
went to my room and sat with my
face to great bay window that opened
upon beautiful park. and brooded over
my terrible loss.
The next day I again crossed the park
and as | neared the house of Lillian, /
met her father who said, as if he menac-
ed me
Lillian is dead She spoke to you
last Why did you come here?"
turned on my heel and walked rapid
ly away. They said that Lillian fell dead
after she told me not to let my sorrows
be as deadly as were those Of Werther.

DIVIDED.

fthou vert by my side, dear love,
And could walk with thee.
The path unto the mountain crest
No tod would seem 70 me.
But now my feet walk wearily,
And heavy are mine eyes.
And dread and darK the winding way,
That leadeth to the skies.
Yet if thou vert beside me, love,
My hand within thine own,
Perchance my weight would hold thee back
Tho thou eanst win alone.
Thou mightest stumble, following me:
or loltering by the way.
Seeking the sweets and flowers, my feet
Might tempt thine own to stray.
But now by different paths, my love,
We seek the self game goal,
So far apart no charm am !,
No hindrance TO thy soul
And tho my heart doth ache for thee
Ny lips f3r thy lips long.
1 see thee toiling upward still,
And hush my pain with song.
And when upon the mountain crest
We stand where souls are free,
The bliss that doth elude Us now
Must come to thee and me.
Not one brief thrill OF JOY, Of pain
One smile, in tears to end,
Bat an eternal crown Of love,
When soul with soul shall blend.

A young priest, shortly after beginning
his labors in his first parish, received a
visit from one of the older fathers. Anx-
ioas to show the progress he had made
he called up class in catechism for
questioning.
@Biddy. Maloney," he began, stand
up.p
A slip of a girl, with blue eyes and
brown f,eckles, arose inSher place.
"What, Biddy,v said the young father,
ais meant by the howly state of matri-
mony ?"
"Shure," began Biddy, glibly, sits a
sayson of tormint upon which the soul
inters to fit it for the blissid state to
come.

mortified ato the foot Of the class wild

a quizzical smile.

Shifting the Load.

Even my wife sometimes tells me that
l must be different from other men,"
Abraham Lincoln once, more pathetical-
" than jocosely, remarked, "and the
compliment is not intended for me,
either. But tell you right here" and
the long, dark hand came down on the
table with sharp emphasis, "that / have
schooled myself to think occasionally of
something else besides the trouble im-
mediately at hand"
'Oh, but that with you must be a nat
ural faculty, Mr. Lincoln" the Presidents
companion replied. Most people are so
constituted that they cannot do it. Tie
thing that hurts them is the only thing
that they can consider 1t is the insist
ence pf pain. Only here and there can
be found one able to rise above it."
"There never was more outrageous
fallacy than that-outrageous because of
the mischief it can do" said Mr.. Lincoln.
"Oh, yes" interrupted the friend, with
superior smile, @but can you tell the
world how to throw off troubIe-how not
to feel pain?"
81 would like such receipt myself"
was the laughing answer, "but was only
speaking of the ability to shift the load
of pain or trouble, so that it might not
incapacitate a man from bsing of some
help and comfort to his neighbors. Now,
we've no business to go round ik black
