SONG OF the CHRYsANTHE-
MUM.
BY NORA PERRY.

At last have come to my throne.
No more, despised ana unkho"n'
In gardens torlorn
My blossoms are born.
No more In some corner obscure,
Do / dreaIiIy, sadly endure
The whitening blight
OF neglect and OF slight.
Oh, long have waited and late
For this fafr and slow-cOming fate
Which the years have ioretold
AS they sighingly rolled.
on long have waited and lone;
But at last on my blossoming throne
The world doth declare
am fairest of fair.
And Queen of the Autumn l reign
Win a sway that none may disdain,
i, once who did stand
Despised in the land.

The Hanchette Matter.

EDITORS HERALD: When it comes to
a question of veracity between Mr.. Fred
Smith on one side and of Mrs. Patrick,
Mrs. Hanchette and myself on the other,
there cannot be any doubt as to where
the truth rests.
We do not believe and have not be-
lieved that Mr.. Hanchette has done any
wrong. Regarding the woman question,
Mr.. Smith ostentatiously pulled out his
notebook and gave her name, and where
she boarded while in Los Angeles.
When he called the last time he asked
what we would be willing to pay to know
all about Mr.. Hanchette. He was en-
phatically assured that we had nothing
to pay for keeping away facts from the
public, but if Mrs. Hanchette was put in
undoubted communication with her hus-
band he should be well paid. Mr.. Smith
declared there would soon be a cloud
burst, as he was only waiting to get a
few more facts about the case l warned
him to be careful to publish nothing but
what he could prove.
letter written by Mr.. Hanchette to
his wife is said to have been shown by
Mr.. Smith. If he holds such letter,
how did he get it? She gave a letter
written by Mr.. Hanchette before his dis
appearance to q reporter who claimed to
be friend and anxious to secure the
letter in order to trace Mr.. Hanchette.
She has asked for this letter repeat
edly, but without success.
Query; Is this the letter said to be
exhibited by Mr.. Smith?
Now | distinctly affirm, and tomorrow
Mrs. Hanchette will go before notary
public and swear that she has not had a
word, either by letter or telegram, from
her husband since the one written
May 9TH.
If Mr.. Smith knows where Mr.. Han-
chette was up to June oath, let him
prove his assertion and he will be hon.
orably paid; but after declaring to us
that he could arrest Mr.. Hanchette on
suspicion, and Dragging OF the great
number he had lodged in Jail, whose
friends talked of them as we talked OF
Mr.. Hanchette, he will get nothing from
us until we are placed in undoubted
communication with the missing man.
However, tomorrow we will deposit
$500 in the California bank to show we
have the money when it is earned.
Knowing Mr.. Hanchette thoroughly we
do not believe be would willingly leave
us in this dreadful suspense, and know
ing Mr.. Smith but slightly we have no
confidence in his assertions against Mr..
Hanchette. Respectfully,
AMELIA GRIFFITH.
