How tho King Used natr Dye.

There is an amusing little story told
of the king and queen of Italy, which
shows that there is a keen sense Of
humor in King Humbert His hair
turned very rapidly quite white, and
this state of affairs greatly troubled
his beautiful consort, and, without men
tioning the subject to the king, as a
gentle hint she caused bottle of dive
to be placed upon his dressing table.
The next morning the king appeared:
at the breakfast table carrying in his
arms u favorite poodle which, although
formerly white, was black as ebony;
whereas the kings hair still retained
its accustomed hue. 1t is said that the
experiment was never tried again, and
Queen Margherita has become accus-
toned to look upon her royal spouse's
locks, if not with pleasure, at least
with eouanimity.-F Fashions Of the Day.

Free Coinage

Senator Jones has been inferviewd by
the Financial News Of London, saya the
! San Francisco Chronicle, on the sniiiect
Of silver. In the course nf his talk the
! Senator took the trouble to correct a
wrong assumption of the London Times,
which asserted that majority Of the
! new House of Representative Was op-
posed tn free coinage. The Thunierpr
was led INTO this error by the fact that
4 Cleveland has always been an nncom-
promising eJeny of silver. 1t has as

I never been in harmony with his party
on the money subject aud that The most
lnf its M. abers differ rs widely with
him regarding silver as they do in the
matter of reforming the civil service.
Senator Jonps says hat the new Con-
gress will have at least iwo-thirds ma
jarity in favor of free silver. AS the
Senator is in position to ascertain the
sentiments of members of Congress on
the subject of remonetizing silver We
may accept his statement AS being SUBJ
stantially correct. There is nothing sim
gular n the fact, however. 1t indicates
no revolution in sentiment, for We now
positively that if there fiad not been q
strong desire to kerp silver ont of the
campaign just closed. the FIfty-second
Congress would have passed free sill

II is not impossible that the aban-
doned attempt will be repeated at The
second session of he Fifty-second Com
eress which begins Tie first Monday in
December, although The Democrats may
refrain from action TO prevent The Re-
puhlicans from sharing the popularity
that may resnli from, the legislation. LII
they do the Question will inevitably
come up in he Fifly-thri Congress, and
silver law will pass which Mr.. Cipve-
land, although he is largely influenced
by Wall street interests, will scarcely
dare to veto. for to do so wonid be hy-
ing in the face of his party and oppos
ing he sentiment of he Nation to curry
favor With the noneyed powers of the
conntry.-Ed.

THE SHORT STORY.
Ono of the Kind That Modern Romancfsts
Delight In.

I Ono of the Kind That Modern Romancists
Delight In.
They had been SO happy.
He thought of those rosy days by the
seaside. those dreamy walks in the
WOOD. and of that first ecstatic kiss.
All! That kiss! He remem bered
how, in that delirious moment of
psychic intoxication, when their very
souls rushed to their lips and com
mingled, how the crescens moon had
whirlcd and danced before his tears-of-
| joy -bedimmed eyes, until it took the
semblance of pin wheel in the throes
of epilepsy.
And now the end had come The end
of all.
She loved another.
Hc wandered to the wcodshed. An
object struck his gaze.
It was the meat ak.
An awful thought took possession of
him and scared itself into his plastic
soul.
AS one in dream, he took the awful
weapon from the wall and strobe to the
grindstone. He placed the ak upon the
stone His foot fell on the treadle,
and the insensate disk of grit began to
rcvolve as of its own voiition.
Its sibillant, savage, serpent-like hiss
was music to his ear.
Pluclsing hair from the magnificent
brown mustache that she had once
loved, he tested the edge Of the horri-
BILE instrument Of fate.
The test was satisfactory.
He strobe to the trysting place.
Twas to be their last meeting.
She came. Her lips wore the same
false, sweet smile they had worn n
other days.
He allowed his eyes one last look at
her transcendent lovcliness and smote
her in twain And again in quarters.
And in eighths. And in sixteenths
Then he calmly walked to the police
station, told his story, and waited for
the end.
THE END.

possession OF the Erie by methods not
sanctioned by God or man. His path
way may have been strewn with the
wrecks of prncely fortunes; he may
have been guilty OF thousands OF repre-
hensible acts, but il so, he did not
stand alone. He simply lowered above

be no doubt.
