He MoURNs. SHE NEVER CAME BACK.
One Columbian Guard Who Might Have
Road the Papers and Known Better.


She was coy young woman and
looked decidedly pretty in her new
summer costume when Guard White
beheld her sitting on one of the diyans
in the art gallery yesterday afternoon.
He gave her several of his most killing
looks and she responded with the
sweetest of smiles, and the heart of
the young man in blue beat so hard
that the kettledrums in the Turkish
village were not to be compared for
sound. AS he gazed into the young
woman limpid eyes the order of Colo
mel Rice that all members of the Co.
lumbian guard must desist from firt-
ing was forgotten. AS he walked
proudly to and fro each turn brought
him nearer to the smiling beauty and
each time his manly bosom was
thrilled by the smile she gave him.
This sort of thing went on for sew
eral minutes, when she arose, and as she
swept into the yestibule she cast him
a sidelong glance which plainly said
"Follow me-" The guard did so. By
the side of one of the columns stood
his charmer and she extended dainty
hand, which sank out of view in, his
white glove. After a few minutes

time and Guard White gallantly pulled
from his vest pocket the handsome
gold watch he carried.
@Oh, it is half-past three, she crisd,
@and / must let mamma know the
time. She sits right in there. Poor,
dear thing, she is awfully deaf and one
has to scream to make her hear. Just
let me take your watch moment
while take it in and show it to her,
and will be right back"
1t took the guard less than second
to unsnap the chain which heldsthe
timepiece and, handing it to the
charmer, he watched her run into the
gallery.
And then he waited for her return.
He may be waiting yet, for she never
came back Chicago Herald.

publicans to explain how a sneaks

Hawley for the dignified Office of
Uuited States Senator, 1t argues
very low standard of political

as Buckley could be seriously cons
sidered for so honorable a POSI-
ton.
Senator Hawley has now
reached the position that must
make him one of the most useful Of
statesmen or merely the lingering
dregs of past party Issues. Ed
munds and Hoar were once great
leaders and placed statesmanship
above blind party obedience, but
both shriyeled up into snarliug

should avoid their fate.
The nation is much wiser and

surrounds his untimely death with
: sadness only relieved by a bright
a.si manly record.
Senator Kenna worked on a

God set thee on this Norman plain,

Lest the hot breath of man should stain
Thy Moons bright hour;
And yet-and yet, thou dreamest here.
DIeamest of what?
Though there's no sign that Love is
near

As the hid honey draws the bee,
So the rogue knows
What the sweet human heart of thee
Hath to disclose;

Or to thee creep
In cruel haste to hear thee sigh
And see thee weep.
