That white rose dying in the cup
Was gazing at me with her smile.
1t bushed her blush as looked up.
1t paled then with an agony
OF effort to tell me aught
That would. think, bring peace to me
Could but guess, and ! cannot.
And when the wind rose at my door.
1t clamored with a paintive din,
Like some poor creature begging sore
To be let in; | let it in
1t blew my light out; round my head
1t whirled. and swiftly in my ear
Had whispered something ere it fled;
1t had her voice, so low, so dear.
The looking glass this livelong day
Has worn that curious. meaning air:
feel it when look away
Rejecting things that are not there.
For hours no breath of wind has stirred.
Yet bends the lamps flame as If famed
The clock says DER and DER a word.
But /. cannot understand.

THE United States supreme court has
settled the constitutionality of the law
denying the use of the mails to news
papers containing lottery advertise
ments. The court says that this law
does not abridge the freedom of the
press, which is expressly forbidden by
the bill of rights, because it does not
prohibit the circulation of such papers
by We hicles Of communication
other than the government mails. The
real difficulty does not seem to be
reached by this decision. The postal
departm ent assumes the discretionary
power of determining what kind of pub
hcations shall be deemed an infraction
OF the law. For instance, two young
newspaper men were recently hailed into
court because they published para
graph about some charitable fair in
which lottery was drawn. The local
postm aster not only determined that
this was an infraction of the postal
rules, but bad the publishers arrested on
the charge of having criminally violated
the law. This discretionary power
en- abIes every Dogberry postmaster in
fhe country to interdict the mails to
papers that contain harmless announce
ments, as in the case we have cited. 1t
is not long since that an editor at Ell
Paso was thrown into prison at the be-
hest of the postal authorities because he
pnbliehed supreme court decision in
which certain issues relating to lotteries
were Sustained. If the decision of a
supreme court is not a privileged publ
cntion, and paper which publishes ii
can be excluded from the mails and its
editor imprisoned, it would be difficult
10 say how far the line might not
be stretched by postmasters hav-
ing 'scrow to pick" with the newspa-
per fraternity. 1t may not be an in
fraction Of the constitution to exclude
newspapers with lottery advertisements
In them from the mails; but it is GER
4ainly placing newspapers under dan.

THE supreme court OF the United

THE supreme court OF the United
States has reversed the partisan decision
of the supreme court of Nebraska, CIV
ing the Office of governor OF the state to
John M. Thayer, the minority candi-
date, against James E. Boyd, who ran
on the Democratic ticket and was elect
ed. Boyd was ousted from the Office on
the ground of ineligibility. He had
voted and held Office on various occa-
sions from the time of his majority in
1856. His father removed to the
United States from Canada when
Boyd was a minor, and had ex-
ercised all the privileges of
citizenship. The record of his citi-
zenship, however, had been lost, and
nothing but that of his declaration OF
intention could be found. Boyd moved
into Nebraska when it was territory,
and claimed that even if he failed to
show that his father was citizen, his
own citizenship became fixed by opera
ton of his being resident OF Nebraska
when that territory wac admitted into
the union as a state. The supreme
court of the United States holds that
collective naturalization is possible and
valid under such conditions as charac
terized the admission of Nebraska. 1t
is needless to say that Boyd was ex-
cluded from the Office solely on partisan
grounds. His citizenship was we'll
enough established to satisfy any i'm
partial tribunal.

TUE City Water company has answered

THE City Water company has answered
the communication from committee of
the council, asking it to fix price upon
lis plants and all the works and rights
belonging to it. The company says it
will sell its entire outfit, lands, water
privileges, etc., for $2,500,OO0. 1t seems
that under its articles of incorporation,
the company will have to get the con-
sent of all its stockholders in order to
make valid sale of its property. As
there has not been time to secure a
stockholders' meeting, the officers of
the company are securing the written
consent of every shareholder to the
terms offered. The price fixed is not
as much as we thought would have
been named. The company is in debt
to an amount that would make very
large hole in two and half millions.

THE San Francisco Chronicle is
afflicted with bad access OF rabies
against Democratic journals and the
Democratic party generally. Its chief
delight seems to be in charging them
with drawing their inspiration from
British sources. Their advocacy OF a
reform of the unspeakable Mckinley
tariff is denounced as an objectionable
effort to play into the hands of the
ssblasted Britishers;" and criticism of
the course of the man under his grand
father's hat in the Chilean affair is
treated as reasonable encouragement
of the war party in Chile. Whilst the
Chronicle foams at the mouth the OBJ
jects of its wrath laugh at the ridicu-
lous figure this chronic scolder cuts.

Women Drummers In Europe.

Women drummers have appeared in
Europe, and while not very numerous
those that are known are conspicuous
Tor their ability and success. A young
Swedish woman travels for a Scandi-
navian firm Of machinists. She travels
all over Europe, and expects to extend
ner territory. She recently arrived in
London direct from Moscow, and was
then expecting to start for Melbourne,
all in the line of her business. One Lon
don manufacturing firm employs sew
eral woman commercial travellers, and
several makers of dress goods have at
least one each. They find woman's
taste of great value in this especial line,
and 1t is said would engage more women
to travel if they could find them with the
necessary business capacity, good APP
pearance, good manners and good ply

Matching the Prayer Book.

If man has any doubts as to the friv-
oily of fashion among a certain class of
women in this country all he has to dc
10 dissipate that doubt is to go into some
of the shops where he has woman ac-
quaintance who will tell him the truth
about her sex. Such a man was found,
and this is what he had to say:
shelby she he meant the dress
maker who told him-"said that the
latest thing was to have the gown, no.
siery, corsets, gloves, parasol, etc, match
the binding ON the prayer book. Factl
She told me the names of swell set on
the South Side wasn't it the West SideE
who brought their prayer books to the
shop and wanted their outfits made of
material that would match the binding
of the books"
This is not hard to believe when one
remembers that there have been women
who called for books of binding to
match some particular article in their
home. Chicago Tribune.

A Clever Boston Woman.

The governor has appointed Miss
Katharine E. Conway, of the Boston
Pilot, to the prison commission, to sue
coed Miss Emma f. Cary, VINO resigns
on account of i'll health. Miss Conway
is somewhat over thirty years old, and
began in newspaper work when she was
fifteen. In 1888 the late John Boyle
O'Reilly engaged her services on The
Pilot, and he always valued them high
ly, on one occasion averring that she
had "the heart of woman and the
brain of a man" AS matter of fact
we should say Miss Conway's brains are
as womanly as her heart; they are GER
tainly very good brains in the lines in
which she has heretofore employed
them-in editorial writing and verses.
She is great favorite with her fellow
workers, both men and women. What
may be her qualifications for work on
the prison commission we do not know,
probably she has not had much expert
ence among the criminal classes, but in
capacity she should be well fitted

pleasing acquisition will become gen.
sral or be confined to one or two large
and exclusive hotels? The experiment
was tried last winter by big hotel on

hounced success. The object was to
nave ON hand at all hours pleasant
obhglng woman to give information TO
women guests and to act as guide when
desired, This was doubtless a relief to
the desk clerk, for it must be confessed
some women are very fond of asking
quesnons-almost as much so as the
small boy. 1t must also be welcome

equally ignorant of the city, to meet at

person of their own sex ready to assist
them to be comfortable in every way
possible. The homesick feeling, which.
was threateningly near, might be thus
entirely dispelled.
