A Story of Rubens.

In the beginning Of the seventeenth
century Peter Paul Rubens, whose name
had not the same sound then as now.
lived in Paris, al modest inn near the
palace of his patroness, Maria de Medici.
Sometimes he had his pockets full OF
money and lived ike prince, but often
er he was without a pfenning; at any
rate, he paid his host very irregularly OF
not at all. The host did not think il an
honor TO board this great painter, and as
he had a supreme contempt for art, he
often cast insults at Rubens. One day
when the inkeeper was in an especially
bad humor, he threatened to throw Ru-
bens ont Of the door like a tramp and
without further notice.
Rubens had Just had sn audience al
the Louvre, but did not possess a heller
Whist should he do? The tavern-keeper
would not reason, but wanted to see cash
Under any circumstances money musi
be procured.
The artist took S small picture OF hi;
own from the wall and asked in a note
written 70 one of his friends 200 lire fol-
1t. Half an hour later the messenger re.
turned, saying that the gentleman would
pay only 500 lire for it.
Rubens was furious, threw the picture
on the ground and stamped upon If
while the host was still more furious, as
his hopes, through this "daub," to get
money, were dispelled. He wanted to
put mis- guest out on the pavement i'm.
mediAtely, when Rubens gave his word
of honor that he would pay his debt
within eight days
With this promise Rubens hurried up
stains and locked his door. He LEFT the
room very seldom and never without
taking the key with him. A week later
he appeared before his host with little
hand-trunk, with these words:

what Hoard Knew about CLAIMS

Ex-Governor Hoard is one of the best
story telIers in the country. On the re-
cent trip to GaIena, when the Grant
monument was unveiled, his fund Of
stories seemed inexhaustible. One Of
them was this:

THE INDIAN TROUBLES.
A Fight Last Monday in Which About
80 Soldiers and Many Indians
are Killed.
Further Trouble at Pine Ridge Agency.

A band of 12O Indians, under Chief
Big Foot, on Wounded Knee Greek
in Nebraska, surrounded by 500
troops, while being disarmed last
Monday, suddenly rose up and fired
upon the troops. AS soon as the
troops recovered from their surprise,
they poured volley after volley into
the Indians, who fled precipitately,
but few escaped. Twenty-eight SOL
diers were killed and several others
badly wounded. A hundred or more
of the Indians were killed and
wounded.
A dispatch from Pine Ridge Agen-
cy, S. D., of the 3lst, reads:
"a scout came in about s o'clock
last night and said that the hOstiles
were treasured by the fact that the
soldiers had quit the field, and today
afternoon had planned to attack and
burn the agency with fire arrows and
then stampede the troops and massa>
ere the inhabitants. The report was
proven true to some extent, but the
very heavy lines of pickets frustrated
and stopped the hellish scheme.
OMAHA, NEB., Dec. 3l.-Gen. Miles
left ChadrOn at 1 a. m. for Pine Ridge
with a large force of cavalry. 1t is
reported that the ranches on White
River have been pillaged, horses
stolen and cattle killed. John Dyer,

OF those Senators are understood to
be enthusiastic friends of~free silver
coinage. These anti.silver republi-
cans are opposed to any financial Leg
islation Of any kind at this session,
and they only agreed to the financial
bill recently reported for the purpose
of quieting the silver men in their
party and fully intending to prevent
a vote ever being taken upon it. The
silver men have at last had their
eyes opened, and they are threaten
ing to make the fur fly as soon as the
holiday absentees get back.
Commissioner Raum has been
compelled by Secretary Noble to
write letter in favor of the bill now
pending to reduce the attorneys fee
for obtaining an increase in pension
to 81. The attorneys lobby still
boldly and confidently announce
their ability to defeat the bill.
Public opinion has proved too
strong for the House committee on
Rules, which has decided to report
in favor of Representative Dockery's
resolution authorizing an investiga-
ton of the charge against Congress-
men of specializing in silver bullion.

THE SONG OF The WIND.

lve great deal to do, great deal to do;
Don't speak to me children, l pray;
These little boys hats must be blown off
their heads,
And the little girls bonnets away.
There are bushels of apples to gather today,
And oh, there'sn no end to the nuts!
Oer many long roads must travel away,
And many by.lanes and short cuts.
There are thousands of leaves lying lazily
here
That needs must be whirled round and
round
A rickety house wants to see me, know,
In the most distant part of the town.
There are signs to be creaked and doors to
be slammed,
Loose window blinds, too, must be shaken,
When you know all the business I must do
today,
You will see how much trouble I've
taken.
| saw some ships leaving the haroor today,
So I'll cen go and help them along,
And flap the white sails, and howl through
the shrouds,
And join in the sailor boys song.
Then I'll mount to the clouds, and away
they will sail
On their gorgeous wings through the
bright sky;
| bow to no mandate save only to Him
Who reigneth in glory on high.

A Chat About Our Senators.

From Washington correspondent.
Twenty-eight Senatorial seats be-
come vacant from and after the Sd of
March, next, and so far, Senators
Pugh, Of Alabama, Allison, of Iowa,
Wilson, of Maryland, and Morrill,, of
Vermont, have been reelected as
their own successors, while Gen. Cor
don, of Georgia, has been chosen to
succeed Senator Brown, Edward
Douglas White, Of Louisiana, to sue
coed Senator Eustis, Calvin S. Brice,
Of Ohio, to succeed Senator Payne,
and Col. Irby, of South Carolina, to
succeed Senator Hampton. Elections
by the Legislatures are to follow in
the states of Arkansas, California,
Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Hi
nois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky,
Missouri, Nevada, New Hampshire,
New York, North Carolina, North
Dakota, Oregon, Pennsylvania,
South Dakota, Washington and Wis.,
consin.
So far, indications point to the re-
election of Senators Stanford, of Cali
lorna, Teller, Of Colorado, Plat, of
Connecticut, VOORHEES,, of Indiana,
Blackburn, of Kentucky, Vest, of
Missouri, Jones of Nevada, Vance, of
North Carolina, Mitchell, of Oregon,
and Cameron, of Pennsylvania.
Should this Representation prove
correct, there will have been fourteen
Senators reelected out of the twenty
eight, or just one-half. 1t is quite
possible that Senator Jones, of Arkan-
sas, Call, of Florida, and Pierce, OF
North Dakota, may secure reelection,
but in all the other States not above
mentioned, changes will surely fol-
low, unless by miracle, Senator In
gals, the most prominent of all the
retiring Senators, manages to pull
through over the Farmers Alliance
opposition.
Political changes follow in the
States of Illinois, New York, South
Dakota and Wisconsin, with Kansas
and New Hampshire in doubt. Ger,
tain, it is, that the Republicans will
lose four Senators, while the Demo.
Gratis have lost none. A curious fea
ture of the situation is the fact that al
this juncture of affairs-political, it 81

States, New York and Pennsylvania

new Senators, A classification of
these twenty-eight States shows that
five are Eastern, ten are Southern
and thirteen Western.
The notable figures who have been
or are likely to be retired are Senators
Evarts, ingalls,, Blair and Hampton,
three Republicans and one Democrat.
Nevertheless, it is conceded that
Messrs. Payne, of Ohio, Eustis, Of
Louisiana, and Brown, of Georgia, all
retiring Democrats, were prominent
in the councils of the Senate, while
Messrs. Farwell, of Illinois, and
Spooner, of Wisconsin, were equally
influential on the Republican side.
The withdrawal from the Senate of
Mr.. Evants is source of regret to
his colleagues of both political parties
since he is universally recognized as
puolicist, statesman and lawyer of
marked prominence of the present
epoch. He is, however, seventy
three years of age, and possibly may
desire to rest from the wearying la
bors which have so long beset his ac>
tive professional and political life.
Senator Morrill,, of Vermont, is eight
years the senior of Mr.. Evarts, as is
also Senator Payne, of Ohio, both of
whom were born in 1910. Senator
Morrill,, however, though quite fee
BILE, takes great interest and part in
public affairs, while Senator Payne,
who is quite active for one of his
years, prefers to remain more the
spectator than the actor.
Senator Blair, during his twelve
years of Senatorial and four years of
Representative service, has cut a
pretty wide swath in public affairs,
and is yet comparatively a young
man, being only fifty-six years ofage.
However much people may differ in
respect to the ACCESSIBILITY Of afford
ing federal aid to advance education
in the States and Territories. Mr..
Blair is the only man wholly logged
persistence, forced the Senate to adopt
a measure looking to that end. In
fact, he has been thorn in the side
of his colleagues on the questions of
REFRESHING the alcoholic liquor traffic,
woman's rights and labor issues. 1t
is therefore within the range of possiN
bilities that Mr.. Blair's enforced re-
tirement from the Senate may evoke
a sigh of relief from his associates OF
that body.
Senator Hampton will be greatly
missed by his colleagues of both par
ties, more by reason of his genial dis
position and high social qualities
than for any prominence in public
affairs, although he is a forcible
speaker when aroused. His principal
Committee service has been on Mill
tary Affairs, and his action in this be
half has been noted for extreme liber
ality and broad ideas on all matter;
connected with the army, in which
he has always manifested more thar
ordinary interest. Gen. Hampton
was one of the few Senators, such a
Mr.. Morrill, and Mr.. Morgan, of Ala
: bama, who were popularity supposed
to enjoy life tenure in the Senate
but the revolutions in politics ar,
such that no one knows what a ola!
may bring forth, and the halo sur
rounging Gen. Hampton has beef
rudely dissipated, so that, with tn
exception of the venerable Senate
> from Vermont, life tenure is no long
er recognized as the imminent G
any Senator, at least of the presen
body.
