Responsibility of Writers.

The responsibility of writer's is ably
discussed by Charles Dudley Warner in
the Editors Drawer" in Harper's
Magazine. He says: 1T is difficult
enough to keep the world straight
without the interposition of fiction.
But the conduct of the novelists and
the painters makes the task of the con-
servators of society doubly perplex-
ing. Perhaps the most harmful sim
ners are not those who send into the
world of fiction the positively wicked
and immoral, but those who make cur
rent the dull, the commonplace, and
the socially vulgar. For most readers
the wicked character is repellent; but
the commonplace raises less protest,
and is soon deemed harmless, while it
is most demoralizing. Unfortun-
ately the world is so ordered that the
person of the feeblest constitution can
communicate contagious disease.
And these people, bred on this pabu-
lum, in turn make books. If one, it is
now admitted. can do nothing else ip
this world, he can write, and so the
evil widens and widens. No art is re-
quired, nor any selection, nor any
ideality. only capacity for increasing
the vacuous commonplace in life. A
princess born may have this. or the
leader of cotillions. Yet in the Judg-
ment the responsibility will rest upon
the writers who set the COPY"

The sprite of the Goo-Goo-Gee.

A fairy came from her opal cave
In the depths of the onyx sea,
And brought babe with golden hair
And sparkling eyes, like dewdrops rare,
And lips like rose, and skin so fair,
And little fat hands, with dimples deep,
To rub his eyes when he wanted sleep,
And short plump legs. when he tried to creep.
The fairy stopped at farmers gate,
And said, "Pn enter here
For a little mother wants babe,
With bright blue eyes that sparkle clear,
And cheeks as pink as the conch shells ear,
And curls on its tiny pate"
Now behind this fairy, kind and true,
Came another sprite called Bug-a-boo,
From the land of the Goo-goo-gee.
0, he was a nasty pop-eyed elf
That thought too much of his ugly self
And between both you and me-
He was after the babe that the fairy brought
From the depths Of the onyx sea.
When the babe was laid on its mothers lap
1t clapped its hands with glee,
And the fairy said, Tll leave you here
II you will promise me
Never to cry or pOut or fret,
But be a sweet and darling pet
And as good as good can be.
IF ever you are naughty child
And cause your mamma pain,
The sprite from the land of the Goo-goo-gee
Will come some night down the chim-nee
Ana take you away from your mammals knee
To his cave in the black molasses sea.
And you won't come back again.
But this lovely child was very good,
And Bug-a-boo, you see,
Grew very mad because he could
Not get this fat ba-bee;
But he's running around the country vet.
As wild as he can be-
watching every little pet,
10 see If they cry or pout or fret,
For he says, "a child I'm bound to get.
For my home on the Goo-gOo-gee

A Smart Widow.

Widow Sarah Flint did smart thing
when she married Col. Alborn Saxton
in Missouri twenty years ago. She ex-
acted an antenuptial contract by which
her children by former husband
should become heirs to Mr.. Saxton's
estate in case no children were born to
them. She died two years later, with
out any children by her second hus-
band, who died recently, leaving an
estate valued at 81, 600, 600. The COM
pact was contested, but the parties ac-
cepted $1,000 as a compromise and
the widows children got the remainder.

In conclusion: With the pleasant memo
ries of the past year pertaining to our business
relations, and the auspicious opening of the
new, we take occasion to express our thanks to
friends, patrons, and the public in general, for
the liberal patronage they have bestowed upon
us. In return, we feel that in no better way
can we demonstrate our appreciation, than by
continued adherence to uniform courtesy and
fair dealing mutually pleasant and advanta-
geous to ourselves and patrons.

RECIPROCITY WITH VENEZUELA.
III" Convention Approved by the Fed
Congress and signed by the President.

Th~ Convention Approved by the Fed
cSagrese and signed by the President.
The work Of bringing about reciprocal bust
meas arrangements between the United Sta Q
and the nations who occupy territory
from the Rio Grande 10 Cape Horn goes
merrily and speedily on. Venezuela and
te republic Of the north have
clasood hands. urged to do so by the conven-
tion-creating provisions of the Mckinley bill
and the strong desire OF Secretary Blaine TO ex-
tend the principles and practices of American
reciprocity.
THE WORK QUICKLY ZONE.
1t is but little more than three months since
the Secretary Of State handed to the veneZue-
Ian minister. Senior Bolet-Peraza. a copy OF the
commercial agreement or convention to which
he desired the assent of the Venezuelan govern
ment, but so speedy has been the action of the
Venezuelan government that the mat
ter has been satisfac: orily concluded. When
the document was received by the president OF
Venezuela II was discovered that many OF it's
provisions and suggestions directly conficted
with the revenue laws OF the country, and for
awhile 1t seemed though the pathway
of commercial diplomacy SO far as
the United States and Venezuela were con-
cerned. was pretty thoroughly blookaded.
These hindrances to progress were not, how
great national desire to please the United
States and to advance business interests. The
obstacles have all been removed aud the agree
ment is a reality.
BENEFITS TO BOTH PARTIES.
Mr.. A. NJ. Soteldo has just received . letter
from an authoritative Venezuelan source. in
which 1t is stated that the convention had been
submitted to the federal council and had been
approved by that body and by the executive.
Il am not intimate with the terms Of the
convention. said Mr.. Soteldo to a STAR re-
porter this afternoon, but know that one Of
the results of this agreement will
be marked increase in the shipments of
Hour from this country to VENEZUELA and de-
cided cheapening OF the product at the Nenezu-
elan end of the line. Nearly all the -four used
there heretofore was made in this country.
but the duty on it amounted to
from "a to IS per barrel. Trade
in kerosene oil will also increase rapidly.
Venezuela has oil wells of its own and SO far as
tested the product is superior to the article
with which they are supplied from this country
but the wells are in the interior of the
republic and not easily accessible. The con-
vention is a good thing and am glad TO know
it. As our commercial relations become closer
we will become more ndly-will understand
each other-and 1t is universal friendliness
among all the nations on this great continen,
that so many of Us have worked for are work
ing for and will continue TO work for until the
end is achieved"
