ELAINE TO ALGER.

At the Michigan club banquet Gen.
Alger presiding, the following letter
was read:
GEN. r. A. ALGER, Detroit.-My Dear
Sir: regret that cannot be present at
your club meeting on the 22nd; official
engagements forbid. But | cannot re-
frain from sending a word of good cheer
on the prospect of the Republican party.
On all leading measures relating to the
industrial and financial interests of the
people, we are strong and growing
stronger
On the contrary, our opponents are
weak and growing weaker They are
divided; we are united. If we do not
win it is our own fault. We will be
justly cemsurable if, with such great
measures involved every Republican
does not feel that he is appealed to per-
sonally and that victory in the election
depends on him.
Very sincerely yours,
JAMES G. BLAINE.

HIS FIRST DISAPPOINTMENT.

How a Great Change in Personal
Appearance Was Unnoticed.
Chicago Tribune.
You seem preoccupied, Mr.. Hankin-
son.
III was not aware of it, Miss
Irene"
The young man answered her in an
embarrassed way. He had shifted his
position again and again as if uneasy
about something and he had looked fur
lively at her from time to time
with surprised, wstfu, labor
lOusly unconscious expression, such
as may be seen on the face of ten
dollar-a-wePk man lingering in the
business office on pay day morning, and
try ing in vain to attract the attention
Of the cashier without speaking to him.
You are not ill, Mr.. Hankinson, are
you?"
No. / never was in better health In
my life. Do lido l look ill?'
Miss Irene scrutiniZed him calmly.
NO." she replied. II can't say you
do"
"Then why-pardon me-did you ask
the question:"
II thought you seemed somehow Ill at
ease and-and out of sorts"
"Any unusual-er- paleness about
me. Miss Irene?"
Again the young woman subjected
his face, now grown eager and ques-
tioning, to the ordeal of prolonged
scrutiny, with apparently the same re-
suit as before.
II cannot see any, Mr.. Hankinson."
she replied.
He seemed disappointed, not to say
hurt.
II am we'll, Miss Irene," he said, "but
II am-that is to say, have passed
through aE-an experience that has

Have you lost some dear friend?"

There was a wild, despairing yearn-
ing in his voice.
She looked again.

He covered his face with his hands
and sunk into chair.
"What is it, Mr.. Hankinson? In

Nothing" he said. bitterly, reaching
for his hat and cane. Nothing! |
