YANKEE TRANSLATION

Some years ago remarkable name
appeared on the programme of con-
cert given by the band of the academy
at West Point. The band-master had
sent to the adiutant list of the pieces
to be performed, that copies might be
made from it.
The first selection on the programme
was the overture, "Felsenmuhle, the
English of which is Mill on the Rock. "
The adjutant, who was a downright
Yankee and had firmly rooted OBJ
lection to all foreign tongues, made a
free translation into English, so
that as he said, folks could have
some idea what they were hearing"
The band-master's disgust can easily
be imagined when he read, as the
first number on the printed program
me:
1. Overture, 1.-The Fenced In Mule, :"
Reissiger.
Undoubtedly the adjutant thought
every one present could understand
the general design of such an over
ture, even if unfamiliar with the work
ings of German composers mind

P4RIS TO LOSE HER WALLS.

The walls of Paris are about to dis
appear, the Government having intro
duced a bill for the demolition of the
mural defences of the capital. No
other large city in Europe is now sur
rounded by a wall, and as the wall
around Paris occupies a space of no
less than 100000 square yards, or
one-eighth of the total area of the cap
ital, the State will derive an immense
profit from its removal and the sale of
the ground which it occupied.

EVEN TOMMY KNEW HIS GRAM

from church when, after a moments

briskly with disappearing tone:

Il GLOVE.
All, yesterday found glove
Grown shabby, full of tiny rips,
But dear to me because my love
Once through it thrust her finger-tipS.
A glove one would not care to see
Upon his arm in public street;
Yet here own there is for me
No relic in the world more sweet.
A faint, far scent of lavender
Steals from it, as the clover smelt,
hen through the fields l walked with her
And plucked the blossoms for her belt.
Faith but loved the little hand
That used to wear this time-stained thing
Its slightest gesture of command
Would set my glad heart tiuttering.
Or if it touched my finger, so,
Or SmoOthed my hair-why should / speak
or those old days? 1t makes, you know,
The tears brim over on my cheek.
Poor stained, WORKOUT, long-wristed glove,
think it almost understands
That reverently and with love
hold it in my trembling hands.
And that it is so dear to me,
With its old fragrance, fair and faint,
Because my mother wore it, She
On earth my love, in heaven my saint.

WEALTH HERE AND ABROAD.
Points of Contrast Between the Rich In
America and In Europe.

America and In Europe.
The English and the Americans are
both rich, but which are the richer?
Perhaps the statisticians know or can
find out, but it is not certain that the
statistical answer would give the infor-'
nation that one really wants and which
involves the distribution of wealth as
we'll as its mere existence. Most Amer
icans have TO work; but, as is well
known, considerable proportion of
English people toll not nor spin, and
make no pretense of doing anything tor
q living. Is that because the English
are richer than we, or is il a matter of
taste or a result of primogeniture? So
also it appears-from close study of
documents submitted by Anthony Troll
lope and other contemporaneous histo-
rians-that British gentlemen in re-
spectacle circumstances employ from
five to fifty serv ants and have several
houses apiece, al of which they live in,
and travel muc besides. An Ameri-
can who lives in that way is looked
upon as a MAJ of very exceptional re-
sources, but il would seem that an Eng
hsh gentlemal who does not live in that
way is thong I to be somewhat strait
ened. In E. gland there are 800 or 400
hunt clubs, and something like 90, 900
Britishers ride pretty regularly to
hounds. But hunting is an expensive
sport that takes both time and money.
These English seem to have both to
spare.
A returned traveller was speaking of
the shoals Of agreeable English people
he met in the Riviera and in all the
play places of southern Europe. When
asked if they were rich people, he said
not, but that they were able to live as
they did because they knew how and
got their moneys worth. He thought,
too. that the well to do English had a
more complete domestic apparatus ready
10 hand than most Americans and
could spend larger proportion of their
incomes on travel and amusement.
Houses and furniture and such expen-
sive vanities they had already by in
heritance and We're not compelled TO
spend useful money in providing them.
Regarding the English habit of pub
fishing novels in three bound volumes
would the American buy novels in such
costly form: Are not all the habits of
living that we borrow from the British,
from dock tailed horses to indoor men
servants. more costly than the customs
they supersede? They must have great
deal of money to spend. those enterpris-
ing islanders. No one would hesitate
to say that the Americans are richer
than the Russians. or the Italians. or
the Germans. or even the thrifty French,
but the Briton gives Us pause. Is he
really richer than we are, or is he mere
ly an older son, and dweller in land
where servants work tor small pay,
and clothes are cheap, and novels are
rented ont by Nude, and the tax on
stimulants is laid for revenue, and not
for prevention. and where to loaf and
invite ones soul is esteemed prefer

How Loves Young Dream Was Broken -
Letting the Wrong Man Into . Secret.
At supper party in Bohemia the 9TH
er night o funny thing happened. A
beautiful maid came, attended by her
latest and most devoted cavalier Now,
this beautiful maid is much addicted to
that habit which is said to make M
think like philosophers-the use Of to-
bacco in its daintiest form, the cigarette.
The cavalier is one of those illiberal
and uncomfortable young men who hold
that all the vices and most of the enjoy
ments Of life are the monopoly of his
own sex, and he is particularly bitter in
his criticism of women who smoke
The maid had carefully concealed
from him the fact that her ruby lips had
ever held q cigarette, but ON the occa-
sion Of this supper party her desire over
came her discretion, and she arranged
with her hostess and various confidants
that when the cigarettes were passed
they should all urge her to lust try
one" to please them. The secret had
been contided to the mamma of the girl
hostess, but unfortunately the name of
the man who as to be thus hoodwinked
had not been mentioned. The cavalier
in question was seated at the right of
the mamma, and that dear lady, finding
him q bit difficult in conversation,
thought to make it pleasant for him by
telling him the whole story, which she
did, with little ripples Of laughter, add
ing, "Of course you know the maid is
an inveterate smoker -
Meanwhile at the other end of the ia
BILE the cigarettes were being lighted,
and the beautiful maid was protesting
that really she didn't dare sit
would make her sick, etc, and finally,
with conciliatory glance toward the
swain, yielding and lighting q Weston,
while light Of ineffable satisfaction
came into her lovely eyes. The youth
became even more difficult to entertain
after this, and what happened ON the
way home no man knoweth, but now
they meet rs strangers, and SO, alas and
alack, another of loves young dreams
has ended in smoke New York Re-

ROMANCE OF TWO STATES.

Reunion Of . Couple After Thirty Years
Separation.
A story which began over 30 years
ago, and which dates back to the late
war, has just had strange sequel in
two states-Kentucky and Texas
When the war opened, Dr.. w. a.
Richardson of Kentucky left Blandville,
in that state, and went to Texas, where
no married.
Soon after the wedding he left his
bride to join the Confederate army. In
attempting some speculation he was re-
duced to the ranks, and becoming dis
satisfied left and went to Mexico.
There, in the year 1867, he heard
that his wife was dead. But he remain
ed in Mexico until the present year.
Then he resolved to return to Kentucky
He arrived in his native country, and
while tracing up land claim found it
necessary to write to his wife g relatives
in the Lone Star State.
This correspondence had surprise in
store for him. His wife was found to
be living. She had waited 12 years and
then had taken another husband.
The doctor was single, and, rejoiced
to hear that his wife still lived, he wrote
to ask if she had lost her love for him.
She replied that she still loved him,
and that if he said the word she would
give the second husband his walking
papers
The doctor was willing, and true to
her word the woman told husband No.
2 that he must go.
He acted ON her advice, and last week
Richardson went to Texas and Twas re-
united to the wife Of his youth" after o
separation covering q period of 80
years.
Queer things happen sometimes in this
very queer world. Constitu-
ton.
