The speaker then declared the result OF the

parently for form sake, cried down with

Very little enthusiasm or warm feeling

From the New York Tribune. -.
There are In this city a man ana a wo-
man who have been sweethearts for SEVEN
teen years. two years before they were
married and fifteen since that time. When
they were young and perhaps no more
lovesick than most sweethesrts usually
are. they lived In New Hampshire. H was
a country boy, who was ambitious and
worked hard, SO that he could rot see the
parsons pretty DAUGHTER down at the foot
of the valley so often as he could wish.
But IL was just as hard for him 10 90 for a

and strung a wire from tree 10 tree dow N

Then he got some telegraphers' tstru-

down where the parson wrote his sermons
and the maid her love letters. and The two
set to work TO learn telegrapny. After

over an electric wire when he could not
come down from the farm.

NEW YORK DAMAGED.
The Liner Shows the Marks of Her
Collision with the DelanO.

The American line steamer New York ar
rived at Southampton. England. yesterday
from New York. The steamer plainly shows
the effect of her collision with the steamer
Delano on the morning Of June y. Several
plates and one gallery on the port side are
very much damaged and life boat Is badly
smashed. :. ....-.. .--4l.-. =
At the time Of the collision the New York
was running at the rate OF nineteen knots
per hour. The Delano struck the New York
almost aInidship, and had not the blow been
glancing one, the damage to the New
York would no doubt have been much
greater.
Capt. Jamison says that the collision oc-
CURED half an hour after midnight, adding
The weather was clear and a ship was
seen a mile and half distant. 1 left the
b,idge fifteen minutes before the collision
and was going to bed when felt a shock
and heard tearing. grating noise. When
reached the deck l found that the noise
had been caused by the steamer sropes rap
ping the side of the New York. The Delano
was falling astern and upon the necessary
examination being made I found that the
New York was not dangerously injured, and
that there was nothing to prevent her from
remaining water-tight. The other steamer.
however. must have been damaged to a con-
siderable extent. as l found twelve feet Of
her head on our promenade deck.
She declined our offer Of assistance,
which We made to her, and offered. in her
turn, TO help US IL we needed assistance
She also asked whether We would proceed
or return. Our boats were cleared away in
order to be able to render to the steamer
assistance II she required aid. However, as
she did not want help and as a haze had
commenced to surround US, I did not think
1t prudent to remain at close quarters and
so proceeded slowly, stopping at intervals
IN order to clear away the wreckage
Inc Omcer VINO was on the bridge at the
time of the collision reports that while
watching a steamer apparently a mile and
q half distant he saw a green light appear
lmmeoiately the New York's engines were
reversed and, as collision was unavoida-
bie the vessel was steered so as to take ~ a
impact in q slanting direction"

ceased to futter.

stated the meeting, and then declared the
congress open. Three crank3, a radical. o
royalist and a socialist, claimed leave to
speak, and another crank cried: Long live

deputy, Chauvain, shouted: Down with the
presidency which was echoed by his COL
leagues. NJ Groussicr cried: Down with
dictators" but this cap fitted no head
The speaker took no notice of the cries
and named those who were to scrutinize
the votes. He decided by lot in what al
phabetical category the members should
begin to vote. The letter l. was drawn and
NJ Labarte began the voting. The mem
bers filed past the urns, dropping in white
or blue balls they went. Then they
went to walk in the gardens. There were
twelve urns, each of which was on a sepa-
rate table. The letters L, NJ, y, and +

The Future President Present.
At 3 o'clock NJ. Casimir-Perier arrived
from Paris. He walked slowly about the
passages of the committee rooms. At $3.50
o'clock s53 votes had been cast. One other
vote had been refused. Breathess anxiety
reigned while the votes we're being counted.

A Chnrnde party

Miss Minnie Johnston was the
charming hostess for a large number
of prominent young society people
on Wednesday evening. A NUM- Der
of charades were acted most clever
ly, creating unlimited merrlment'
One of the most entertaining tea
lures of the evening was the puzzle
devised by the young hostess and
given to each one Of her guests to
solve. Copper cents were passed to
all, and it was required to find eight
things upon the shining coin, viz /,
a flo ser, fruit, part Of mountain,
a descent, youth, age, sch olar, and
little animal. Thinking caps were
donned, but to Miss Birdie Higgin-
son fell the honor of correctly
guessing each of the requisite items.
A dainty supper, served with the
sauce piquante of wit and laughter,
added to the pleasure of the happy
party.
The novelty of Miss Johnston's
entertainment was particularly en-.
joyed, and zest was given it by
being in such direct contrast to the
endless round of card and dancing
parties.
