Fen in heart that's broken.
In teaching little folks the sweet
courtesies of life. we must repeat
over and over the same lesson day
after day, for the first few years.
Some little girls can wait on visit
or in their mothers absence, with
as much propriety as young ladies,
can answer questions put to them
clearly and directly, and always po-
litely, and it is pleasure to be a
guest where children thus behave.
Little Alfred's mother had taken
pains to instruct her baby boy in
some of the simple forms of polite
ness and hospitality, and though
not three years old, he used to put
his lesson in practice. One day a
dear friend of his mothers called,
and he ran at once to bring chair
for her, inviting her to sit by the fire.
Then he brought a footstool for her
feet, and asked her to let him take
her bonnet Il wish you would
stay to dinner" he lisped, land stay
all day and forever" Then he look
ed up into her face with a bright
smile and said, Il try to be polite"
L
Brow, as her little son handed her
a paper he was requested to bring.
THANK you, Bridget" said the little
fellow a few hours later, as he re-
ceived a glass Of water from his
nurse.
We'll, Mrs. Brown, you have the
best-mannered children l ever saw"
said a neighbor; Il should be thank
ful if mine were as polite to me as
yours are to the servants. You
never spend half as much time on
your children S clothes as | do, and
vet every one notices them, they are
so weIl-behaved.
I'VE always try to treat our child
rem politely" was the quiet reply.
This was the whole secret. When
l hear parents grumbling about the
ill-manners of their children, l al
ways wish to ask, Have you al
ways treated them With politeness ?''
What sight is more lovely than
this pleasant, modest, Christian
courtesy in little folks, a t home and
abroad 1t is like "apples of gold
in pictures of silver'
Hearts, like doors, can ope With ease
TO very, very little keys;
And don't forget that they these,
II thank you, sir,' and IF you please
When the Duke of Wellington was
sick, the last thing he took was a
little tea. On his servants handing
it to him in a saucer, and asking
if he would have it, the Duke replied
Yes, if you please" These were his
last words. How much kindness
and courtesy is expressed by them
He who had commanded the great
est armies of Europe, and was long
accustomed to a tone of authority,
did not despise or overlook the small
est cOurtesies of life
All, how many boys do! What a
rude tone they often use to their lit
tie brothers and sisters, and some
times to the mothers
look will sometimes send pang
OF anguish to the heart;
A tone will often a tear
In sorrows eye to start.
Children, do not forget three little
words, IF you please"
Then, let us watch tho little things
And respect each other,
That not word or look tone,
May wound a friend or brother.

Paganini was silent for a minute,
and then, with a complacent glance
at the rather too witty Automedon,
he said, at the same time handing
him a liberal fare, Il will pay you
ten francs when you drive me upon

missed that the warm weather of the last few
days has told on his strength
At the White House there are no new
Developments. A large number of dispatches
nave been received from Minneapolis, but
they contain merely the estimates of friends
on the strength of Mr.. Harrison, and don't
materially differ from those which have
been published in the newspapers.
"Presidenfiiarrison will fight this battle
to the end, and will remain a candidate as
long as there is single man in the conyen-
tior who wishes to vote for him." These
were the words of Mr.. Halford, at the
White House, this afternoon, and they
illustrate the spirit which actuates the
President and his adjutants. But though
their courage is dauntless, it was manifest
that their hopefulness diminished consider
ably after the details of the first days ses-
sion at Minneapolis were received here. The
detection of the Southerners and of some
Northern Harrison delegates did not ap-
pear to give them much concern, nor were
they visibly disturbed BY the unanimous
choice of Mr.. Fassett as temporary chair
man.
Half of the Battle Won.
But the composition of the various COM
mittees, especially the Committee on Gre
dentials and the Committee on Rules, mani
festly troubles the people at the White
House, and they acknowledge it. They
confess that the Blaine men have secured
control of the organization of the conven-
tion, which is halt the battle. They expect
now that all the Blaine contestants will be
seated and the Harrison forces correspond
ingly depleted, and while they still claim
everything this evening, they are not in re-
alitv as confident as they were "a hours ago.
In the Washington community generally
there has been strong accession of anti
Harrison sentiment to-day. 1t has been
emphatically Blaine day. Quite evenly
balanced in the morning, the general opin-
ion has set strongly in favor of the e1-
Secretary ever since the days proceedings
were made known, and nearly everyone is
predicting this evening that Blaine will be
nominated

them. But they sat there too long. Fog
horn Miller had expected some such move
as that, and had quietly besmeared the
bench with pitch.
Where Miller's Work Came In.
After the bean-eaters had become firmly
'trooted" to the bench, Miller tipped the
wink to his captain. Then the Smoky City
lads gave a war whoop and in jiffy had
overtaken the chagrined Beaneaters, who
were making frantic efforts to escape from
the trap into which they had fallen. 1t was
disgusting enough to the 1900 spectators,
but there was no help for it The above
explanation makes the situation palmer
than the bare statement that the Pittsburgs
won the game by the score of 8 to Z, not
withstanding the Bostons did take long
lead in the very outset of the game. They
felt so confident of winning that they lost
interest in the game till it was too late.
They certainly acted as if they were
anchored in the last part of the game when
the Pittsburgs snatched victory from their
grasp.
They Made q Gallant Fight.
All the interest was centered in the squirt
made by the visitors. The score was to 2
against them when they went to the bat in
the last half of the sixth inning. Smith
started the squirt by driving the ball to
right field for two bases. Farrell followed
with singo which ratified Clarkson to
such an extent that he gave the next two
batsmen their bases. forcing in Smiths
run. Burns struck out, but Miller sent
long fly to left field and Farrell scored on
the sacrifice. Mack was caught mapping on
second and the boys took brief rest. In
the seventh inning they tied the score in
mas. .erly manner. Bierbauer was given his
base on balls and Shugart flied out, accom-
plishing nothing for his team. Beckley
was safe on fuckers error. Bierbauer going
to third. Smith hit to Tucker and that
player made another bad error which filled
the bases. The veteran Clarkson got rat
pitching.
Old Reliable Mack Was There
With the bases yet filled, Mack lined the
ball into left center for single and Beckley
and Smith scored two tieing runs. Coikhill
forced Farrell at third and Burns flied out
to Mccarthy. The bean eaters were in great
distress when the rumpus quieted down, for
they saw handwriting on the wall. They
made desperate brace in the ninth inning
and had three men on bases, but good field
ing shut them out. Then Captain Beckley
led his men to victory in the last of the
ninth inning. He opened the sport with a
single, took second on Smiths sacrifice,
went to third on fuckers muff and scored on
a fourth error by Boston s first baseman. 1t
was OF by any means an earned victory,
but it counted just the same. The score:

tee as witness in the suit of ex-senator
Rutan against e1-State Treasurer Boyer, if
he returns to Pennsylvania before the date
of the hearing before Alderman Maurer,
which has been fixed for June 16. Counsel
for the plaintiffs are anxious to have the
junior Senator brought here for the hearing.
A number of other persons of prominence
and political influence have been subpenaed
at the instance of Rutan.
The officials of the Enterprise Bank, Of
Allegheny, the Allegheny National Bank,
of Pittsburg, and the Economy Bank, at
Beaver Falls. were subpenaed on Monday
Detective Anderson said that the gentle
men were greatly surprised when the sum-
mons were read to them. A prominent Re-
publican politician, speaking of the suit,
said to-day:
''When the Delamater-Jamison failures
occurred the bondsmen of Mr.. Boyer, IL in
number, were compelled to make good the
shortage, amounting TO S125,0OO, which
would require each bondsman to pay about
S11, 900. This is the sum Rutan SAYS was
paid Boyer by the Allegheny National
Bank, and is probably the basis for his
prosecution"

the Opera House, tonight. In the riot that
ensued revolvers were drawn, and Pat Har-
rington and Tom Glenn were shot. Neither
is believed to be mortally wounded.
An ex-priest, Father Slattery, was billed
TO deliver the lecture. The house was filled
early by large and curious crowd. The
word had gone forth that the Catholic lead
ers would shut off the ex-priest. Father
Slattery said he would deliver his lecture
at any cost. When he appeared on the
platform he was roundly Missed. Others in
the house applauded him. Slattery started
to speak. Then arose babel of voices, and
a rush was made for the stage.
At this juncture a posse of men who
favored the ex-priest ran into the belligerent
crowd of church men. A rough and tum-
BILE fight followed. Many spectators were
hurt and several were knocked dDwn and
trampled upon and severely injured. Some
one drew gun and fired.
Pat Harrington fell in heap on the
floor. Another stray bullet wounded Tom
