lcross the vision OF the clerk the giddy seaside

As in his alpaca coat the livelong day he sits,
And on the dust worn drumrcr's face tho

AS in the crowded train he speeds upon his

Her flowing trcsses ningling with the play Of

She promeuedes the hotel porch, and on the

And advcY;isrs silkcn hose 10 all ndmiring cyea.
With ,cckleyr Cupid at her back size skirts the
muutaiu top,
And by the latest rings she wears betrays the
men who pop
Upon the ecean's azure breast the yachts have
spread thuir sails,
And by the broos the fisherman HIS scanty luck
bewails.
The tennis court is gay with life. the croquet

And with Immense ambition the mosquito now
IS stirred.
The carly morning ily is here, the ieeman with
his smilp,
And while lie tolls the plumber at the seaside
spends his pile.
The dust IS flying overhead, the SUMS beating
down
Upon the Geld and meadow and the ever busy

The counlloss thronps are moving, with their

ness Behind-Trade Balance Against
Us-Washington News.

WASHINGTON, June 17.-Mr. Frank
Aldrich. until recently sealer of
weights and measures for the District
of Columbia, has gone from Washing
ton leaving debts behind ting
to nearly 100000 A cons; dera BILE por-
ton of his Indebtedness is covered by
property which he left behind, but q
pretty heavy loss will be sustained by
some of those who have Endorsed his
paper. His present whereabouts are
unknown, but June 6 he was in Chi
cago, and from there wrote to Gen.
Albert Ordway and to Judge c. c.
Cole. TO the former he rendered,
among other things, his resignation
as quartermaster-ge general of the dis
trict national guard. Frank Aldrich
is one OF the best-known citizens of
Washington During the last four
years he has held the office of sealer
of weights and measures for the dis
trict. His downfall is due to the fact
that he thought he saw millions IN a
power company which he established,
and borrowed money recklessly to
keep it atloat.

Republican Clubs select a League Head
quarters.
CHICAGO, June 16.-Chicago has been
chosen by the Executive Committee
of the National League of Republ ican
Clubs as the location of the national
headquarters of the league This
question was the main point at
issue and almost every delegate
present had something TO say
on the subject Washington
was the only real competitor of Chica-
go and its claim was ably supported
by Delegate Tiepke of Rhode Island.
St Louis was nominated by Mr.. Elan
nigan Of Missouri, and yet before the
discussion was over, Mr.. Flanagan
was ready to throw his influence in
favor of the Worlds Fair City. Mr..
Judd of Illinois spoke strongly in favor
Of Chicago, but his motion had
90 many seconds that it was difficult
to see where any opposition could be
effective. When representatives from
North Carolina. Kansas an Washing
ton were united on the adviSa bility of
locating headquarters in Chicago, the
delegates favorins other locations saw
at once that the fight was lost and be-
fore the vote was reached the opposl-
ton had been thoroughly routed.

NEW YORK, June 16.-Bishop William
Taylor Of Africa has addressed letter
to $ Secretary of State Gresham, IN
which he say:
Our government bears no legal re-
sponsibility for the protection OF n
IBERIA but if we can by moral suaslon
extend over them protecting shield
against oppression it would be seemly.
England's hands are tied by the fact
that She appropriated about one
hundred miles of the northeast
coast of Liberia few years
ago Now that France is laying
claim to seventy-three miles Of their
southeast coast England cannot inter
fere, if so disposed, other European
nations are in the grab game for Afrl-
can territory, SO that our government
seems to be the only one in pos .tlon
to help liber a. The Liberian govern
ment is weak and cannot prote t her
self against foreign governments, but
the Liber an republic is not failure,
and if not crushed by foreign invasion
will vet make an honorable score fol
the possibilities of the negro national
