Paid In Her Own Coin.

ABrooklyn lady, living on the heights
found out to her cost recently that it i:
not always wise to criticise the seeming
neglect Of others.
Calling not long ago upon somewhat
eccentric neighbor, who is known to pos
sess q very keen wit and n sharp tongue
she found her neighbor out.
She waited in the parlor a few mo
ments, however, while the servant went
up stairs to get book. An old fashioned
rosewood piano stood in one corner o.
the room, which had not received mucE
needed touch Of dust brush that morn
ing.
Upon the top of this the visitor trace
for the servants benefit the not particu
larly polite word, "slattern." Shortl,
afterward she left without meeting tn,
eccentric person.
A few days later she Glanced to NEE
the neighbor in the street, to whom sh
remarked, II called to see you the othe
day but you were out. hope the gir
told you, for left no card"
"Oh, but you are mistaken" repliet
she Of the sharp tongue. 81 knew yol
called, for found your card on tn
piano. New York Herald.

Mrs. Twickenham - That is hardly

made against him while his nomination
was pending in the senate. Only ono
of them he dec ares is worthy of notice.
Then he says:
~ have never denied, and do not deny,
that 1 contributed to the campaign
fund-not $50, 900, but yet a consider
able sum of money; sincerely believing
as / did that a continuation of Repub-
lican supremacy would be, not only a
hindrance to national progress, but in
time positive menace to the success of
popular government, and having large
interests at stake, was impelled by
both patriotic and selfish reasons to aid
the Democratic cause. l have not only
admitted but have positively insisted at
times that it created no obligation to
me whatever, and feel confident that
the president, who in fact was kind
enough to say to the Democrats of
Rhode Island that his personal acquaint-
ance with me enabled him to consider
my candidacy solely upon its merits,
will bear me out in this assertion.
On the other hand, frankly admit
that, until after the appointment had
been made, 1t never once occurred to
my mind that my contribution could be
used to my injury. 1t therefore seems
to me sufficient to add that self respect
compels me to adopt the only alternative
and to decline the high Office to which l
have been appointed"
Then on Nov. 30, President Cleve-
land wrote letter to Mr.. Van Allen,
asking him to reconsider the matter
and accept the Italian mission. Mr..
Cleveland then says:
Il did not select you for nomination
to the Italian mission without satisfy
ing myself of your entire fitness for the
place. / am now better convinced Of
your fitness than ever. You know, and
/ know, that all the malignant criticism
that has been indulged in regarding
this appointment has no justification,
and that the decent people who have
doubted its propriety have been misled,
or have missed the actual considera-
tions upon which it rests. We should
not yield to the noise and clamor which
have arisen from those conditions"
In spite of the personal letter from
the president, Mr.. Van Allen has sent a
letter to Mr.. Cleveland declining to ac-
cept the place, as TO do so would. he
says, invite further misrepresentation.
