THE TRUE MOTHER SPEAKS.

A curious question was asked by the
Paris Figaro of its readers, its woman
readers especially. A novel entitled
'sCour de Mere appeared in the feuil-
Teton of the paper. In this story a
mother of strong religious convictions
refuses to consent to the marriage Of
her daughter to the man she loves, be-
cause he is bound BY vow made to his
dying father never to be married IN
church or take part in any religious
ceremony, The girl dies broken-heart
ed, and to the last the mother refuses
the permission that would save her
child from the grave. The Figaro ask
ed its readers, was the mother justified
IN withholding her consent, and there
by bringing her daughter to an early
graveP The editor received 1435 an
swers: Of these Cpl considered the
mother justified in preferring her
daughters death to her dishonor N
conflicting a marriage unblessed by
the Church; $40 took the opposite view
and blamed the mother; 200 answered
hesitatingly, and suggested various so
buttons to the problem. The editor ex-
pressed his admiration Of the type IN
which the letters, as rule, were writ
ten. Some distinguished woman took
part IN the correspondence. Answers
reached the Office Of nhe Figaro from
distant parts of the globe. u would

SECRETARIES.

special 8 Tus wonLp.

LONDON, September 9.-The CORES
pondent Of the Times, discussing the
situation in Russia, says: After the
Rothchilds' refusal of a loan to Russia
it was found that itwould require fl2,-
900. 900 to relieve the distress in Russia,
whilst the poverty Of the people would
cause large reduction in the customs
receipts from the sale Of alcohol, and
the expenses Of increasing her arma-
ment would bring the aggregate deficit
up to e35,0O0,OOO Or to f4O,000,000,
Russia eagerly seized the Cronstadt
entente to make fresh, but futile, APP
plication to the Rothschilds, who rep
resented the difficulty France herself
would be in, having to pay f30, 000, 600
to f40, 100000 in gold for American
wheat. Then other bankers were APP
preached, and they agreed to advance
loan to Russia at the same price as
was offered BY the Rothschilds, manner
|ly, about 50. This loan cannot be
issued at 81 or S4i, and will be absorb
ed by petty investors, as lagge houses,
especially Jews, dislike Russian issues.
The Standards Moscow correspon-
dent, commenting on the demands that
come from all quarters for measures to
relieve distress, says it il plain that the
distress is greater andmore widespread
than was at first supposed, and that
the worst is still to come.

SOUTH SEA ISLANDERS.


Especial to TIM WonLDl
san FRANscisco, Sept. 0.--The brig
Tahiti, which put into brakes Bay
Saturday in distress, loft to-day for
San Benito. Mexico, with her human
cargo Of 200 South Sea Islanders. The
custom house officials were IN doubt as
to the course they should pursue in
the matter The Revised Statutes Of
the United States provide for the seiz-
ure and forfeiture bf any vessel found
within the jnrisdictional limits Of the
| United States having on board any per-
son Of color with intent to land the
same within the United States or else
where as a slave, or to be held for SER
vice or labor. CollectorP states,
however, that the vessel had been
driven upon the coast by stress Of
weather, and that her officers had not
intended to enter American waters. He
had no revenue cutter within reach to
send up to examine the briggs cargo,
nor had he authority TO engage other
crafts for service.
Capt. Ferguson, who is part own
er Of the craft, states that he ii acting
AZ an authorized agent Of the Mexican
government TO assist immigration to
that country, and that the terms Of the
contract, which were explained to all
natives before signing, provide they

coon NEWS FROM THE WEST
Jay Cooke Looks Forward 70 Term 81
Immense Prosperity.
fe....,sst.. a,.s. xy,xw.rt


Ispcciaito TIN wonnpl
ST. PAUL. september0. Jay Cooke,
the Philadelphia capitalist, who is now
travelling in the West, said to-day;
II look toward 70 long term Of inn
mense prosperity for the United States.
'Ibelieve thatwe are nowat the begin
ming Of All era, which win mark the
advance 81 our country 70 the rink of
the foremost commercial and financial
nation II tho world.
For years Tho United States has
been drained annually Of millions 81
gold, which was sent abroad TO re-
deem orrepurchase the securities, both
public and private, which were sold to
foreign capitalists in the times Of our
financial depressions. Ever since the
beginning Of the war this has been GO
ing on. It is now about ended. The
United States Indebtedness 70 Europe
has nearly ali been paid, and the cur
rent of money income has set the other
way. Hereafter the gold will come 70
us.
.sThe stability during the recent ii-H
nancial crisis is one Of the highest proofs
that foreigners have every confidence
in us. When the embarrassment Of
| THO Earrings sent securities of every
kind 81 the Foreign Bourne tumbling,
| American securities wereleast affected.
This shows that the credit abroad Of
American enterprise is good, and this
credit Of American securities Is well
established. Hereafter every Ameri-
canwill beratedas gild-edged III foreign
financial circles, and | think American
securities win be sought after BY Eu-
ropean investors at much higher prices
than now prevail.
Another potent element in the
prosperity Of the country Is the album
dant harvests. All over the world,
except IN the United States, the crops
this year are short. The result viii be 4
demand for our grain, and better prices
are inevitable. This will rebound to
to the good Of all. The farmer will
receive prices that win yield him good
| interest on his investments and fair
remuneration for his labor. The rail-
roads viii make money by carrying
crops to market. The businessman,
the artisan, and the capitalist will all
experience the benefits of the splendid
haryests.'
Referring to an article by G. P.
Huntingdon, published recently in a
leading magazine, advocating the con-
solicitation Of railways Of thecountry,
Mr.. Cooke said: ssThe tendency Of all
lines Of business and enterprise now is
toward Capitalization. Combinations
are formed by corporationsand individ-
nails in the same line Of buiness where
by the cost Of operating reduced and
all are benefited by the unity and har-
mony Of management. The railways
are drifting in that direction, too, but
| il will be some time, think, before
the diverse and mighty interests Of the
many railway systems Of this country
can be united under Que head
What do you Think Mr.. Cook,
1tof Governmental control ofrailways9''
"That is possibility of the future.
If the private consolidation Of the rail
way lines were effected, the question
of Governmental control will be the
next to be considered. 1T viii probably
be reached in time.'

About fourteen or fifteen men play at the

dinarily a wrecker. He knows when he
begins the scheme that he will never
live to enjoy the income OF the struc-
ture, or be victim Of its collapse. He
just wants to have it said that he built
the t2n-stOry affair that was built on the
following pattern;
"The man hal 5000 cash, He leased
q corner in block and put in his fOun-
datiOn. Then he mOrfgnged it for So, 600.
That was to cover the foundation and
three stories. Then he put on a second
mortgage Of $4,000, and with that the
structure was run up three stories
higher. Then he placed a third mort
gage on thu building. which put 1t under
roof. He finished it off and rented every
office, and every tenant found hims (
confronted with a garnishee by the
mechanics who had liens. These me-
chanics collected the rents Of that build
ing until IA rich woman came along and
bought the whole ediflce, including the
lease. But the ambitious fellow who

Unless you can think, when the song Is dones
No other is sweet in the rhythm;
Unless you can feel, when left by one,
That all men else go with him;
Unless you can know, when upraised by hii

That your beauty itself wants proving;
Unless you can swear-"For life, for death"--
Oh. fear to call 1t lOvingl
Unless you can muse in a crowd all day,
On the absent face that fixed you;
Unless you can love as the angels may
With the breadth OF heaven betwixt you;
Unless you can dream that his faith is fast,
Through behO1vlng and unbehOOving;
Unless you can die when tho dream is past
Oh, never call IL loving!

PETTlCOA1S IN CAMP.
Senator Stewards "reminiscences sf the
& Id Diggings In the Early Days.

Senator Stewart of Nevada, occasion
ally relapsss into "reminiscences. One OF
the best stories he tells is of the arrival
of the first woman in the mining camp.
The boys had tOied with pan and rocker
at WashOe for three years without 50
much as n glimpse OF a sunbonnet. Late
of an afternoon a shout was heard. The
cry was taken up and repeated until it
rang from end to end of the gulches:
Petticoats !" "Petticoats !"
Down went the picks and shOvels. The
red-shirted miners swarmed up the hill
sides. An emigrant wagon, all the way
from Pike" was slowly moving along to
a camping place. A lone "Puke sat on
the seat in front. The lucky miner who
had raised the shout told how he had
seen live woman sitting beside man
when the wagon first hove In sight. But
as soon as he gave notice by the warn
Ing cry she had lodged back out of sight
beneath the canvas cover. Piled with
questions by the less fortunate, the
miner described in glowing detail how
the woman was dressed and what she
looked like.
That evening, while the slices Of pork
were sizzling and the coffee pot was bub-
bling, the miners discussed the great
event. The more they talked the more
they felt that they must see woman.
Somebody proposed a purse and visit
to the emigrants camp. One after
another Clipped in. There was 50, 600 in
gold dust when the last contribution was
turned in. Then, forming in line, and
looking very solemn, just as they did
when they marched in to see THE Luck
o. Roaring Camp, these miners started
for the wagon of the MissOurian. BY Il
unanimous vote "Bilr' Stewart had been
selected for spokesman. He walked at
the head OF the procession and carried
the lag of gold dust. AS the column ap-
preached within sight OF he little camp
the leaders saw the hutter of drapery at
the front of an imprOvised tent Then
the flap WAS hastily drawn. and us the
miners approached they saw only the
man OF the outfit, and he gazed rather
apprehensively at the array.
A big ring was formed: Stewart ad-
vanced to the centre. He explained to
the traveller that the boys meant no
harm to him or his. But it had been
three years since some OF them lad seen
Il woman. In Fact, until the arrival that
afternoon, the gulChes of WashOe had
never been bOnOrei with the presence
of petticoats. The Logs had deemed the
occasion worthy ofrecOgnitiOn. of They had
made ~, not exactly jack pot. but a
purse. which he was commissioned to
present to the lady.
The Missourian listened. As the little
speech neared the climax he grinned.
When Stewart held up the buckskin bag
the emierdnt's eyes grew big. He turned
and started with alacrity for the tent.
Sally, he said come out and show
yourself. Tie boys cont mean to hart
ye. They've got somethin' .ur ye.'
Leading he fright Re woman Y the

over the buck kin bag with lis most
