of her secret, the bursting of the wrath
about her, and with it all the birth of
the nameless child Slowly, but surely,
Catherine faded away. The bright col
OF left her cheeks. Her eyes, long since
bereft of their sparkle, now were listless
and dead And ever heavier and heavier
bore the weight of her shame. The
kindly face of her father regarded her
but with a frown, and mothers eyes
filled with tears at sight of her while the
white hairs were sown thick in the heads
of both.
At last death gave her release. Mother
and child passed away into the silent
realm where no dream or sorrow disturbs
the sleeper. Brief and troublous was
this life-full of grief and sadness.
Right dearly had she bought the love
she priced so highly. Basely was she
betrayed
In the meadow of her fathers farm,
where she and Burr had wandered to-
gether beneath the myriad stars, tread
ing the sweet, cool grass beneath their
feet, SO swift to run in the inviting by
way OF illicit love, there they laid her.
And in the same grave, says the legend,
they laid her child also. The headstone
tells when she died and when she was
born, but tells nothing more.
1t is lonely spot in the rear of Presi-
dent Patton's house. But there is a
we'll worn path to the grave, made by
the students.
Over the hills aud down in the valley
in the center of the town is the regular
cemetery. In it's confines are the graves
of the prominent men and women OF
aristocratic old Princeton. There are
also the tonls If the illustrious presi-
dents of the college. There, too, is the
grave of Aaron Burr. II was dug in the
night, at the foot of the remains of his
father and grandfather. There the rest
less, stormy life found its rest.
To1tuous and long was the journey,
strange and varied the events which
crowned that life from the time he be
trayed the gentle Catherine until he
came again old, worn and lifeless. On
the headstone, clipped by the vandai
tourists, are these words:

An Exa,nt,Ie of English Hulnor.

There is a story told of some people in
the West Indies high III official circles.
They were English, of course, quite
English. Sir Blankety Blank and his
lady were both fond of fishing, On one
of their tours on II. NJ S. Royal Some
what Sir B. Blank conceived the bril-
liant idea of surreptitiously cutting OF
his wife's hook and allowing het III her
innocence TO fish with only the string.
He did this successfully, but a friend Of
the lady's who discovered the deception
decided to .retaliate on the governor. 50
he threw out his line from the other side
of the vessel and allowed the tide to
swing his grapple around until he
caught Sir B. Blanks hook. Then there
was a tremendous struggle. Finally the
governor got his line away.
F'There, he's gone!' he cried excited
". 'and he was one of the largest sharks
I ever had on my line. Naturally he
was the object of much chatting Final
" his wife inveigled him into betting
on the size of the fish, which he did the
more readily, believing that there was
no way of proving the bet. When the
stakes were finally deposited the pert
young officer stepped up. Il weigh just
1852 % pounds, - he remarked And Lady
B. Blank seized the money.
The whole affair was considered up
roariously funny, and the story is one OF
the stock yarns Of the sailor folk in the
West Indies station and those who live
on the island. The incident is interest
ing as showing the English idea Of hui

A Sad Case.

Judge Lyons, one of the st, Claircoun-
ty judges IN Missouri, now in jail for
contempt of court for refusing to levy a
tax ordered by the federal court, has lost
his reasoc. His wife and daughter have
also been driven insane by his imprison-

The ST. Clair judges have benin con
finement at intervals for several years.
Their people resist the assessment for
railroad bonds voted by the county, and
the judges stand by them. For this they
win have to remain in priston possibly
for life. Contempt of courtIs terrible
offense in this country, and#in defining
and Furnishing it our judges are armed

AARON BURR.
A Colonel in the Revolutionary
Army and Wee President
of the United States.

They say that many women listened to
his great voice; that many heart
caught fire from the light of his bright
eyes; that he was an almost convicted
traitor. That he ruined the home OF
Blenuerhassett; that he slew Hamilton
in a duel; that he led the life of miser-
able outcast, are well-known facts.
1t is doubtful, however, if in his long
life he committed any sin greater than
the wrong he did the woman who lies in
the lonely field at The foot of the hill,
from which a view can be obtained OF
the country for miles around.

A Home Shower Bath.

When the bathroom has no shower or q
home has no bathroom, simple shower
bath may be contrived by piercing the bot
tom of a tin pail or bucket with small holes
made quite close together. A false bottom,
made whole, and to the center of which is
attached a string, should fit into the pail,
which in its turn is conveniently hung over
a tub, or wherever the bather chooses. Fill
the bucket with water of the desired tenn
perature, and when ready pull the string.
The resulting shower will be of short dura-
tion, and the bather must make most of his
time, rubbing vigorously meanwhile. This
isn't very thorough shower bath, but it is
better than none-New York Journal.

Their Exports of Goods to America Have
Very Largely Decreased.
The New York importers of foreign
goods were not satisfied with their first
meeting at Cooper Union, when the name
of ex-President Harrison was applauded,
and when they agreed to swallow the
carcass out of which the fostering flies
of lies and perjury constantly rise"
They wanted another meal of it, so held
a second meeting but did not publish
this time the names of any importers,
lawyers, presidents, chairmen, free trade
editors and eating house proprietors who
signed call, but held it under the aus
pices of the Manhattan Single Tax club.
The urgency for the passage of the
Wilson tariff bill, so called, is becoming
very pronounced Trade and business
are in critical condition in England,
where the volume of exports is decreas-
ing, and particularly SO far as the United
States is concerned, the decrease in ship
ments to this country up to March 81
last exceeding the entire falling Off
shown in the total trade with all other
foreign countries for the quarter. In an
ticipation of our lower tariff on cotton
manufactures England continues to buy
very largely from us of cheap raw cot
ton, expecting TO ship it back here in the
shape of cotton goods later in the year.

Whereas, The traffic in laborers transported
from China and other eastern countries, known
as the cody trade, is odous to the people of the
United States as inhuman and immoral; and
Whereas, 1t is abhorrent to the spirit of mod
ern international law and policy, which have

Of mode of enslaving men differing from the
former In little else than the employment of

Be it resolved, That it is the duty of this gov
srnment to give effect to the moral sentiment
Of the nation through all its agencies for tho
