Arlington
With these few facts before them,
the verdict of the jury was conclusive
that Ambrose Arlington had died of
poisoning, but by whose hand the drug
had been administered there was no
evidence to show.
The newspapers the next morning
disposed of the case in half a dozen
lines, and in twenty-four hours their
<eaders had forgotten that such q per-
SON as Ambrose Arlington had ever cx-
listed.
"And now,' SAL Isaac Evesham, as
they were seated round the widows
tea table, weary with the excitement Of
the trial, yet relieved from the dull
sense of oppression which had hung
over them for the last few days, now,
Esther, we must finish our work. That
woman Wilkins must be sent at once
to Wisconsin, and think think
that the little wait and stray you
have SO foolishly harbored had better

circle. Every eye ives fixed on the rich

uncle and myself to discuss when you

Mr. Evesham glowered at the offend
ing children. For moment he was too
indignant for utterance. Then, turning
the full glare of his piercing black eyes,
which fairly snapped beneath their
shaggy brows, he said in slow, pompous
tones:
esther Evesham, have you taken
leave Of your senses? Do you mean to
tell me that you think for moment
that such proposal will bear discus

The widow was spared an explana-
ton, for at that instant the door opened
and Mrs. Wilkins entered bearing In
her arms the child, whom it seemed as
though fortune had sent at this critical
moment to plead her own claim to SYM
pathy and protection. She was dressed
for bed, and looked like some sweet
vision of innocence in her muslin
mother-hubbard with embroidered yoke.
Even Isaac Evesham's eyes softened
as he looked on the pretty creature as
she kissed them each good night; and
who knows what might have happened
if Mrs. Wilkins, encouraged by his

There are twenty-three widows and
daughters of revolutionary soldiers
who still draw pensions. though the

fact leads to some curious speculatiors

ans of the civil war who may be ON fha
pension rolls one hundred years hence.
But under proper legislation there
need be no fear on that score. There /.

AN UNWRITTEN LAW.

Beaten Leaders

Republican Balm for fhe Wounds Of
Beaten Leaders
The benevolent work of providing
for the unsuccessful and impoverished
republican candidates for Office in the
recent election is now being taken up
with noble zeal by the politicians Of
that party. Time-honored precedent
has made the rule that he who leads
republican column to defeat shall have
his hurts plastered with an appoint
ment to federal Office. Occasional
violations of this unwritten law have
only the effect Of making it more in
flexible in the end, for the unrewarded
ones, as in the case of Warner Miller,
are prone to seek revenge upon tho
later candidates of their p-rty. and to
secure it in a fashion well fitted to in
spire the party rulers with a firm de-
termination to err in that respect no
more Therefore 1t is that no evasivs
massage full of soft words but destitute
of promise of place has come to the late
Mr.. Fassett, but rather the knowing
ones speculate upon the identity of the
fat place that shall be his Much
proba bility attaches to the rumor that
a senatorship win be opened for him
by the appointment of Frank Hiscock
to the vacant post of secretary OF war
"a situation peculiarly fitted TO the
talents of that senatorial Adonis, since
for twenty-five years its duties, with
inconsiderable exceptions, have been
discharged by the chief clerk. If it be
urged that Fassett can but poorly rep
resent the Empire state in the senate
the response is obvious 1t is not New
York that he viii be chosen to uphold.

BY this time Mrs Evesham was fast
recovering full consciousness.
Il am sorry was so weak" she said,
''but was much frightened. You had
hardly left the house when a man rushed
down the stairs and passed out at the
front door,"

nantly.

came to photograph the body of a gen

''Oh, bah!' Isaac Evesham interrupt

story of him glazing at her through a

Another Lesson from Iowa

One lesson of the Iowa election
which was as well impressed upon the
republicans as any of the others which
it taught is that the old appeals to pref
udice, fear and ignorance with which.
not many years ago. it was possible ia
carry the state by overwhelming ma.
jorities, are no longer potent They
are found. on the contrary, to react
upon the party which employs them.
1t will not be long until the Iowa re-
publican leaders begin to understand
that one of the causes of which their
defeat was the effect was the cam
paign of abuse. falsehood and appeal
to superstition, part of which they in
augurated. part of which they toler-
ated- and for all of which they were
held responsible When they realizs
that fact, it is safe to assume that they
will change their tactics, accept the in
evitable and conduct their future cam
paigns upon rational lines.-St Louia
