BLAINE NOT IN 1T.
This Is the Opinion OF tho secretary's
Nearest Friends.

nearest trtenOss
Washington telegram: There are
three views Of the attitude taken by
Mr.. Blaine with regard to the use Of his
name as a candidate against President
Harrison.
One view is that the present agitation
Is entirely without the approval Of the
cause this to be understood In a way
which cannot be mistaken before the
convention shall assemble.
The second opinion is that Mr.. Blaine
does not expect to be nominated, and Is
not willing to accept the nomination,
but that he Is anxious to prevent the re-
nomination of the President, and for
that reason permit his name to be used,
in the hope that the result will be the
disorganization of the Harrison forces,
as a consequence Of which 1t will be
easier for the opponents Of the Presi-
dent to unite upon a third man.
The third view Is that Mr.. Blaine Is
willing to become a candidate, 10 accept
the nomination, and to make the can
vass.
Each of these views has its believers.
In the absence OF some definite state
ment from Mr.. Blaine the public will be
compelled to select for itself which one
of these views it will accept. There are
circumstances which tend to give color
to each one of these theories.
The fact that the nearest friends OF
the Secretary of State insist that he
stands by his letter of February Is q
matter of Importance in the opinion Of
those who insist that Mr.. Blaine is not
party to the present agitation and that
1t does not have his sanction, although
he does not consider 1t necessary now
to state that he was telling the truth in
his letter Of February. 1t has not been
the habit of Mr.. Blaine, his friends say,
to come to the rescue of his own YER
acity. The chief friends Of the Secre-
tary of State, among whom are Senator
Hale and Representative Dingley of his
own State, declare that the reports that
Mr.. Blaine consents to the use OF his
name are without foundation. Mr..
Blaine's associates in the Cabinet de-
clare also that he Is not q candidate.

When Napoleon was First Consul Of
France, Bourrienne. one day Just before
the Eastern campaign, came into the
Cabinet ut the Tuileries and found a
large map unrolled upon the carpet and
Napoleon stretched upon II, moving pins
about that were tipped with red and
black sealing wax.
Bourrienne very soon saw that the red
represented the French and the black
the Austrian forces; he watched the
progress OF the pin campaign In silence,
but with the deepest interest.
Having conducted the maneuvers TO a
successful termination, Napoleon looked
up at his Secretary and said: DO you
think / shall beat Melas?"
why, how can telli" replied Bour-
rienne.
Tell you simpleton, look herel
Melas Is at Alexandria, and will remain
there until Genoa surrenders. His
magazines, hospitals, artillery and re-
serves are In Alexandria. Passing the
Alps here, said he, sticking a pin into
the great st. Bernard, Il fall upon his
rear, cut of his communications with
Austria and meet him In the valley
here" So saying he stuck red pin
into the plain of "Marengo."
Bourrienne looked upon the moving
OF the pins as mere pastime, and was SO
incredulous that Napoleon rolled up the
map, exclaiming playfully. "Oh, you
ninny and goosel"
Ten weeks later Bourrienne found
himself writing up the battle of Maren-
go at Napoleon's dictation on the very
spot where he had placed the pin and
recalled the circumstance with wonder
at his foresight that bordered on rev.
ence.-Wide Awake.

A Story OF Grant.

once heard, with revei ence and with
misty eyes, the story Of General Grants
return from the last brief journey he
ever took from the cottage on Mt. Mac
GregoI. The General had favorite
walking stick without which he never
went abroad, even on his drives, and
his walking stick had It's own place In
the corner Of his room; no hand but his
own ever put 1t there or took 1t thence.
Day after day the journey from his
chair to that corner before he set forth,
from the corner to the chair after his re-
turn and the replacement of the stick In
it's own place, grew more difficult to the
Generals nerveless and weary feet.
And there came that day, at last, when,
on coming in, he glanced toward the
corner. stood for a moment, silently,
waveringly, little CULVER on the brave
and steadfast lips, and then with gest-
ure which was a wordless renunciation
of life and ell Its dear associations, he
opened his tremulous hand and let the
old stick drop from 1t to the floor at his
feet. 1t was but few days later that
he entered, with soldiers courage,
that shadOwy valley of the journey
through which David said: Thy rod,
Thy staff. they comfort me. Boston
