AMERICAN FISHERS STOPPED.

French Prevent Their Buying Bait on
the newfoundland Coast.
NEW YORK, May pa Washington
special to The Herald says: The state
department has been informed of the
action Of the French government in sta
tioning war ship at st. Georges bay
to prevent Americans from obtaining
bait, but will await further advices be-
fore taking action. 1t has not yet been
made clear to the department whether
the war ship has prevented our fisher
men from buying bait, or whether 1t
has prevented the French inhabitants
from selling it. These are two very dis
tinct and different propositions. In the
irst case it may be taken as an asser-
Jon of authority over American citi-
zens, while in the second case the French
might be exerting an undeniable au-
thority over French subjects.

REFUSE TO ENDORSE.

The Third Party Movement Receives .
Severe Blow at Columbus.
COLUMBUS. Ohio, May go. 9.---After having
discussed a resolution calling for third
party convention from 4 o'clock in the
afternoon until almost IL o'clock at
night, the Ohio Farmers union finally
defeated the project. The vote by
which the convention refused to en-
dorse the third party movement was SO
yeas to GA nays. The third party move
ment was led by President Ellis, of the
State Grange, President Likins, of the
Open Alliance, ex-Alliance Lecturer
Miller Purvis and others. Col. ]. I'll.
Brigham, Gen. Hurst and many of the
best known figures in Ohio farmers or
gsnixations vehementiy opposed the
plan of independent action. During the
evening session many politicians were
upon the floor of the convention, and,
mingling freely with the delegates, en-.
deavored to influence them for OF
against the resolution. This action OF
the union in refusing to endorse the
third party movement in Ohio was
somewhat unexpected. The indications
during the entire day had been to the
effect that the third party men would
meet with very slight, though deter.
mined opposition. Immediately after
defeating the resolution the convention
adjourned to meet at the call of the ex.
ecutive officers. No effort was made tc
secure reconsideration of the vote by
which the resolution had been lost, and
1t was thus effectually killed.

NEW ORLEANS, May 29.--There are
many mutterings of discomfort at the
Developments IN the bribery case. The
apparent spiriting away of one of the
principal witnesses and the assertion
that the law cannot punish bribers of
talesmen have made a bad impression
on the public mind and may lead to Sc
rious trouble. The newspapers are loud
in their warnings that the temper of the
people viii not longer permit the delay
in the publication of the fountains of
justice. The New Delta says: New
Orleans is not in mood to be trifed
with. We would greatly deplore the

ing not individuals, but system, and
they are determined that system, in its
off spots and ranifcations shall be
destroyed by legal and judicial methods

Ignite for Locomotive Fuel.

ROME, May 29.-Wednesday an ex-
pertinent was made on railway train
running from this city to Frascati,
twelve miles southeast from here. A
new combustible prepared from Ignite
was used in generating steam. Signor
Sapori, of Sienni, is the inventor of the
new combustible, and the Ignite from
which it is made has been found in large
quantities in Italy. OF the new fuel 367
kilogrammes were used in doing the
work of 800 kilogrammes of coal. 1t is
expected the discovery will prove val

Childish treasures dear to her heart.
Dropped and forgotten, uRfound, and so
Making, perhaps, the big tears start
She looks at me from her wistful eyes
With faith as deep as they are blue;
"They must be gone to Lost Land" she siQhs:
''Sometime III Ind 'em, dess; don't yoI?"
Where do our happinesses go?"
Love and pity and faith God willed,
The tender words that have moved us so,
Joys departed and fond hopes chilled;
Tears that were shed for us, smiles that shone
All the sweetest things that we knew,
They have gone from us somehow, surely gone
wonder are they in Lost. Land too?
Dear little maid, If the faith l see
In your sweet blue eyes, In your sweet blue
eyes,
Might only dwell In my heart with me-,
think that these clouds Of care would rise.
If old joys wait, and old love ehdures
In the Lost Land shadows whithers they ia re
Will trust my hand, little maid, to yours;
We will go together and seek them there.

THIS MORNING.

With vows and pledges and many sigh,
Where the sunlight slept and the swallows
darted,
met her, my sweetheart of days gone by.
Twas the ghost of courtesy, silken, stately,
That she dropped as she passed, and turned
from me
To the grand Milford she has welded lately
The equity, tyrannical, rich marquis.
But smiled to myself in cynic fashion
AS watched the bloom on her proud cheek
fade,
And the stir of a long forgotten passion
That nuttered her bodice of gold Drocade.
Oh, the tickle world! All the boughs are budded'
There ere focks Of sails on the gancing sea,
And my heart with an April joy is flooded,
Though Dolly 10 married and not to me!
