ONLY WAIT.

Can you tell how the pansy petals grow?
Do you know where the clouds OF the evening
Where the east winds rise and the west winds
blowf
Do you know the words of the robins songf
Can YOU tell, when the music floats along,
Whether the notes are right or wrong?
Can YOU follow the snowflake as it fics7
Can SOU tell how the mists of the morning rise
Or the green leaf crmsens before II dies!
II you cannot fathon these simple things,
II your thought drops down when it tries its
wings
So near the earth, and no answer brings;
Is It strange that you do not understand
The wonderful things that God has planned
For the life in the undiscovered land:
The robins song you may not translate.
Nor the lines in the open book OF fate,
But the truth Is there. IL you only wait
II you only wait, faint heart, you'll find
The missing thread. and can unwind
All that divinity designed.
For US to know. Sometime, you'll say,
1 see Gods plan; can trace his way.
You will understand, some day, some day.

This gathering is held under the mag
nificent verdant foliage of four rows of
chestnuts, which were recently in all
the glory of full bloom. 1t is supposed
to be frequented by persons who cam
not afford carriage to drive to the
wood and yet who want to see and
above all, to be seen. The accommo-
dations consist Of arm and other chairs,
which are paid for at the rate of two

riageable young ladies, fanled by a
superb chaperon--generally the mamma

the keen lookout for lord and master
Men also frequent the spot. They are
of all ages, from the pert, downy-lipped
adolescent, fresh from college, to the
made-up roue. Every one there is
we'll dressed and impecunious, and the

the other. Men are looking out for
ladies, maids or widows with a dot,

a WONDERFUL ALCHEMY.
The True philosophers Stone" Discovers
hY .Ioacph RiberA.

The True PHILOSOPHERS Stone" Discovered
by Joseph Ribera-
Joseph Ribera, celebrated painter
of the seventeenth century, was an ex-
ample ofgenius which succeeds through
infinite perseverance and tireless indus
try. When he was at the height of his
success and popularity he never gave up
his habits of close application.
Ribera gave brilliant social enter
tairsncnts, which were attended by the
aristocracy of Naples. He was present
at these parties, but he seldom did the
honors. He would walk about by him
self, or sit looking on for hours, and no
one ventured to disturb his medita-
tions.
It often happened that, struck by
the face of some guest, he would sketch
it then and there, and no one thought
of resenting this somewhat eccentric
proceeding for host.
The story of his experience with two
amateur alchemists is more or less IA
miliar, but will bear repetition. Two
Spanish officers called upon him, and
as his compatriots he welcomed them
cordially. The men tried to engage
him in a speculation.
They told hin that for years they
had been studying alchemy, that costly
experiments had exhausted their funds,
and that 20 utilize their wonderful
discoveries they were now in need of a
large loan of money to buy apparatus.
.Then, gentlemen, you have discov-
cred the famous philosophers stone?
You possess the secret of making gold?"
asked Ribera.
.sWe will prove it to you," they re-
piled. ''ff- you will assist us we shall
, all Be rich

l, too. have the secret of making gold.
will show you. But first allow me to
finish the picture ? was at work on
when you came"
The men waited, mach mystified, and
Ribera finished his picture and sent it
away to a dealer. Presently the mes
senger returned and handed him the
price of the picture, four hundred du-
cats. ''What did / tell you gentlemen?
Here is the kind of gold that l can
make. Isn't it the best kind?"
There was nothing more to say to a
man who was willing to work for his
money, and could show such tangible
proof of the excellence of his methods.

Wait for 1899.
1t Is remarkable coincident that tho
figure is intimately connected with
every great mining excitement of the
present century. The great Algerian
gold excitement came in 1909. In 1889
came the Mantazan mountain mining
craze, where it was reported that gold
nuggets as big as flour barrels had been
found. The California fever came in
1S49, and the Pixies Peak boom in 1859.
In 1s69t the lead was struck that made
Virginia City a place of Importance,
and in 1879 the Leadville carbonates
were discovered to be valuable. OF
course, the connection of the figure 9 is
only a coincidence, but it is none the

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, July 12.-The
Kansas City Safe Deposit and Savings
bank at Eighth and Delaware streets
made an assignment yesterday to Walter
j. Bales, one of it's stockholders, and
w. d. Mcleod, it's legal counsel The
liabilities are 81, zoe, 900 and the assets
are placed at about g., 900, 600 The as
signment was due to the stringency in
the money market
The institution was the largest saw
ings bank in the state. Just prior to
the uneasiness about month ago,
when the bank suspended payment on
demand checks, it had 1888 deposit
ors. The average of deposits was 5000.
The bank successfully withstood a run
about three years ago and was con-
sidered to be invincible. AS n conse-
quence, its deposits increased from a
little less than 81 600, 900 in 1892 to the
present figure. In the same time it
gained nearly 1000 depositors.

taon OF the operators, to return to work
at 81 cents per ton for rough-and-
tumble coal And they furthermore
unanimously agreed to hold out for
their demand of 81 cents in summer
and 20 cents in winter.
The Kansas & Texas Coal Co began
serving notices on the miners Monday
that they must either vacate their
shantles or return to work. The mat
ter has been turned over to the sheriff
OF this county and five deputies have
been sworn to enforce the orders The
operators said the sheriff must have
backbone, but these Kansas miners
found another way out of the difficulty.
They agreed in meeting to quietly
walk out of their shanties when the
limit of the notice had been reached
and begin living in tents.
Will the miners supply these tents?
Not much!
The state of Kansas has enough
tents to house all the miners evicted
from their homes" said President Wal.
tiers at the conclusion of the meeting
After the adjournment of the execu-
tive committee, President Walters, in
explaining more fully his plans for
raising funds to support the miners,
said: I'VE have received notice from
the headquarters of our national or
ganiZatiOn at Columbus o. that
enough notes would be issued by it to
meet any expenses we might incur in
this strike. These notes will run from
SO to s25, and we have already received
assurances from the farmers that they
will give us produce of all kinds and
cattle in exchange for them. We will
not call the Missouri miners out until
August, at which time they will walk
out to a man just as the Kansas miners
have. l received to-day a dispatch
from our organizer in Arkansas stating
that meeting would be held in Fort
Smith tomorrow, at which action
would be taken in regard to the Kansas
strike. expect this move of the coal
miners to result in operators importing
negro miners at once. If they do our men
will not modest them. We will let the
companies whip themselves with these
men. Heretofore our strikes have
failed because the imported men were
protected by the militia and the miners
could not get at them to talk with
them. If negroes are sent here we will
employ negroes to work in the mines
along with them and organize them"
