morning when il was understood taat
Hazel would not accompany them on
their little outing She had coaxed her
mother not to give her reasons, as she
shrank from making a display Of her
small sacrifice.
What has come over YOU, Hazelt II
were in mammals place I'D compel
you to 20. No one else can make such
coffee as you can, demonstrated Jack.
And all the others united in persua-
sions and protestations; but Hazel re-
NAMED firm, even though her heart
aehed a little as she saw them drive
away, throwing kisses and waving
their handkerchiefs to her Then she
ran into the house, aired rooms, made
beds, and put everything in good order
before going into the kitchen.
Mamie looked up in surprise as she
saw her.
Il thought you done gone to dc pic
mic with the res of de folks, Miss Ha-
eel Use dest hurryin' up de dishes
so could go in an clean up de house, :"
she said.
no; I'm going to stay home, Nanrie,
to help you get ready to go TO a picnic
yourself, this afternoon" said Hazel,
cheerily.
''You sholy doesn't mean il, Miss
HAZEL You's dest a-makin' fun OBJ me,

"No, indeed I'm not, Nannie;" and
then Hazel unfolded her plan, and told
Of the lovely afternoon to be spent in
the park with the old mother and sis
ter and little baby, and of the nice
lunch and the free street car ride, and
no supper to get, and no dishes tc
wash, till the girls face shone as il il
were polished
"You's mo- like an angel than gal
Miss Hazel, " she said, at last her voice
choked with feeling, 1T will make ,
new woman Of nanny TO have sech a
trip; and as for me, why-why it'll bC
mos like Heaven TO have sech nice
long res and fine lunch lilIe-lillC

After the noontime meal had been
served, and dainty. yet substantial
lunch packed in neat basket, Mamie
hurried home with her joyful tidings
The afternoon seemed rather long
and lonely to Hazel, but she comforteC
herself thinking of the happy grouI
around faithful Mamie in the park
Then she prepared a dainty supper fol
her papa and two elder brothers, whC
could not leave their business to attend
the picnic.
just as she sat down to the table
rosy and smiling, Mr. Alvord came il
and Joined them. Hazel was greatly
surprised to see him in advance of tn,
rest of the party, but as he volunteered
no explanation, she contcnted hersel
asking questions about the Days pleas
ures.
After the dishes were washed thel
went out to the hammock together
and there, watching the young mool
and the bright stars that came out on
by one, Mr.. Alvord told her how he ha,
never stoI ped teasing and coaxing til
Mrs. Duncan had told him her reasol
for staying at home; that he felt sur
he loved her before, but when he hear,
of the sweet spirit of self-sacrifc
which made her give up day of pleas
ure that she might give happiness to
poor, tired colored servant, he kney
beyond all doubt that he had found tn
one woman above all others who coult
make his life one of happiness and sun
shine, II she could only care for HIM.
And so it came about that the great

The State Department will give ont nothing yet. and there is no one at the German legation who IS informed on the subject. There is no doubt, however, that the Presidents procla- nation will be issued very soon. It can be looked for any day.

 Germany and she American noe.
 CAPE MAY, N. J., Sept 7.-The Presi. dent has appointed John s. Durham of Kentucky minister resident and consul general to Hayti. Mir. Durham is now consul at San Domingo and is colored man of education and ability. This trancfer was made also on account of the necessity of dispatch owing to the presence of yellow fever and the revo- lutionary troubles.
 Private Secretary Halford gives out the following; "The negotiations which with the withdrawal of the pro- hibition against the importation of American pork into Germany were concluded at Saratoga and not at Cape May Point. The conclusion was reached while the President was at Saratoga by Gen. John w. Foster, rep resenting the United States govern ment, and Count von Mum, charge daffaires representing the German government, and was approv cd by tho President. The removal of the pork restriction has nothing to do with tn l, question of reciprocity, but is based upon the acceptance by the German government of the inspection of ex- ported meats by this government under the law of the last Congress"

CORN CROPS ALL RIGHT.
Dun's Review Says It Will Be the
 Largest Wheat Crop Ever Grown.

NEW YORK, Sept 7.--R. G. Dun & Co., s Weekly Review of Trade says: Business improves in all sections, at the South partly because of injury to the cotton crop and the consequent ad- vance in the price. The wheat crop is out of danger and is enormous, undoubtedly the largest ever grown, and moving with un- usual rapidity. The corn crop has been saved and is very large in most of the surplus producing States, and even within the range of recent forts ap- pears to have been in part beyond in- jury. The monetary situation is also decidedly clearer and more favorable. Foreign needs appear less urgent and the danger of successful resistence to American demands for gold is dimin- iShing.
 The removal of the German prohibit tion of pork imports promises Q large ly increased demand fer import pro ducts and a considerab ble addition to merchandise exports for the year Ex- ports from New York in five weeks exceed last years nearly 3l per cent and while imports also increased large ly the balance of trade turns decidedly in favor of the United States. The in- jury to cotton may also hasten the ex- ports of that product, which foreign operators, knowing the large stocks In Europe, might not have bough. early had the American crop been full.
 Chicago wheat receipts are four times last years, rye nine times, corn and dressed beef double and oats show increase, while some decrease is noted in flour, about one-half in barley and cured meats and a quarter in lard Sales of dry goods exceed last years, which were phenomepally large, and in clothing and shoes the trade Is i'm mense.

LONDON, Sept 5.--ln France, in Alsace- Lorraine and in Austria immense bodies of troops were set in motion today, this be- ing the date fixed for the long g-contemplated, much h-discussed grand army maneuvers of France, Germany and Austria. in view of the heated war talk caused by the echoes of Sedan day, the Dardanel- les incident and the Cronstadt un- dcrstanding, to say nothing of the renewal of the drcibund, these m litary movements arc being watched with tho most fevcrish atten- 'tion by the military men and diplomats of Europe. Changes in military or ganizations, improved military equip ments, smokeless powder, and new rifles are having their first real cam paign test. and much may depend upon the result.
 In England this showing of war material attracts deep attention and detailed reports from the various head quarter. arc being received by the war office and by the public press.

 WAsMoroN. Sept 7.-"Web" F1ans- gan has mad the question, What arc we here for?" answered to his satisfao- tion. He is now collector of customs at Fl Paso, Texas. Flanagan has tho reputation of being very active poli- ician of the Sort who believe that there would be no use of spells if they wero not for the victors. He is . power in Texas Republican politics, and his appointment is looked upon as snrewd move by Mr. Harrison.
 Cunie, the colored leader, who is col lector at Galveston, was nota personal appointee of the president He has always been an admirer of Mir. Blame, and Flanagan is said to be tho only man in the State who can disput, his control of the Republican political machine. While it is believed that Cunie would be loyal to Harrison under ordinary circumstances it is not thought that anything would prevent his supporting Blaine if he IS in the field. flanagan, on the other hand, is not Blame man, but has been for sherman and is now for Harrison. It Is believed by friends of Mir Harrison that backed by the ad- ministration he could take the statc convention away from Cunie if the lat ter turned against the administration, and it is said that this consideration entered into his election to succeed Collector Clark at Fl Paso.

Exciting Experience of . Muncie,

MUNoIE, Ind, Sept. 7.-Timothy E.. Chalfant of this city had a narrow escal from death yesterday. He was taking the wall out of an old well on his property, and when down some dis tance struck a stratum of sand. When the wall was removed the well caved in on him, covering him com pletely. A man who was assisting him hastened down into the well and re- moved the dirt so he could breathe. He then knocked the head out of an empty barrel and placed it above the unfortunate mans head. He had just time to provide this safeguard when another cave-in occurred, completely covering up tho barrel.
 second barrel was procured aud placed on top of the first, and the dirt continued to cave in until 1t was half covered up. It W about three hours before the man was rescued from his perilous position.
