FOR FOLKS AT HOME.
A WOMAN's CONCLUSIONS.
by PHoEBR CARY.

1 said, II | might go back again
To the very hour and place of my birth;
Might have my life whatever choose,
And live 1t in any part Of the earth;
Put perfect sunshine into my sky,
Danish che shadow of sorrow and doubt;
Have all my happiness multiplied,
And all my suffering stricken out;
II | could have known in the years now gone,
The hest that a woman comes to know;
Could have had whatever will make her blest
Or whatever she thinks will make her so;
Have found the highest and purest Of bliss
That the bridal wreath and ring enclose;
And gained the one out of all the world,
That my heart as well as my reason chose;
And II this had been, and | stood tonight
By my children lying asleep in their beds
And could count my prayers for a rosary,
The shining row OF their golden heads;
Veal l said, II a miracle such as this
Could I've wrought for me at my bidding,
still
I would chouse to have my past as 1t is,
And let my future come as it will!
l would not make the path | have trod
muTH pleuNuuls OF even more straight OF
wide;
Nor change my course the breadth of a hair
This way or that way to either side.
My past Is mine, and | take it all;
Its weakness-its folly II you please;
Nay even my sins, IL you come to that,
May have been my helps, not hindrancesl
II I saved my body from the flames
Because that once | had burned my hand;
Or kept myself from a greater sin
BY doing a l%ess-you will understand;
1t was better | suffered a little pain,
= Better 1 sinned for a little time,
II the smarting warned me back from death
And the sting Of the sin Withheld the crime,
who knows its strength, by trial will know
what strength must be set against a sin;
And how temptation is overcome
lie has learned, who has felt its power
within!
And who knows how a life at the last may
show
Why, look at the moon from where VT
stand!
Opaque, uneven, you may say yet it shines,
luminous sphere, complete and grand.
so let my past stand, just as it stands,
And let me now as 1 may, grow old;
/ am what | am and my life for me
IL the bcst-or had it not been, I hold.

feature of various goods-as cancels

mixtures of two or three colors and
clouded effects are among the new
goods. Small figures are preferred
to large. Narrow stripes lengthwise

or blocks, and some plaids are shown
in dull and bright colors, though not
in Scotch tartans. The peculiar
blue called bluet appears in all
materials, aud there are many
bronze shades, with green prevailing
in some and brown in others.
The newest materials are double
stuffs, two fabrics woven together,

pom, puckered or in cross stripes,
attached to an entirely different

place. The back is usually black
and is in loose anvas weaving.
tThese stuffs come in all the new
blue and green shades, in violet,
purple, and in ruby purplish reds.

to be revived for winter dresses,
especially for skirts to be worn with
various waists in the way MORE has
been this season. English papers
say that these stately fabrics are
particularly admired by wealthy
Americans, among others by Mrs.
George Gould, who has visited the
poplin factories and made various
purchases, choosing among many a
magnificent piece for a court train,
the ground of ivory white, the flowers
of woven gold.
For tailor gowns are neat mixtures

stitches of silk of bright color show
ing on a smooth wool surface.
Brown goods have silvery- blue dots,
bronze green is speckled with
robin's-egg blue silk, blue with red,
and black with gold. Some small
checks are owe in the new bronze
colors in tweeds, and in other fab
RIGS that have knotted silk threads.
New b%ourettes have their rough
threads forming slender bayadere
stripes. Serges and cheviots reap
pear in lighter weights than any
ever before shown for winter gowns.
The plaids have rough surfaces, yet

ho%mespuns; they are large, irregular
and of rich dark colors. Basket

ally come in soft woods, and Others

Irving, who suggested the name for
the new sisterhood Of service, ''The
Kings Daughters" has passed into
the beautiful beyond.
I was made president of that first
ten, not because I was better fitted
to be president than some of the
others present, but simply because
the forming of such a ten was my
suggestion, and later, rs you know,
the word "tens" was dropped and
the word ''circles" substituted. In
all the circles there is a president, a
secretary and treasurer.

She's immersed in home COM

LOVE AND LOVERS.

George W. Ferrel.
Alas, for the passion of Lowell 1t
is more unconquerable than hate.
1t Is wider than the east from
the west. 1t is deeper than the
unsounded sea. 1t is not only a
passion, but it is a gift-holy or
hideous-in a thousand instances.
If it be pure, and ~consecrated to
higher aims, the smiles of heaven
illumine its way and the blossoms
bend to kiss its passing feet. But, if
it be misdirected, ruin is wrought
and disgrace blasts its fair flower.
Since the episode of Adam and
Eve in the Garden hard by the
Euphrates men and I'M have
died for love. 1t has been the
theme of Shakespeare and the
dream of workers in paint and in
marble. 1t has invaded and held
sway in the far frozen north, in
the dangerous lands of the south,
in dreamy eastern realms and where
the sun wraps his red robe about
him by tie Pacific at eventide. 1t
car make the heart happier than
the leafy home of birds, or it
can blight and wither and destroy
beyond the redemption of God or
a Juliets and Ophelias and
Romeos and Hamlets have sought
the mystery of death to escape
the tyranny of the tender, but
tragic passion, and this will be
the fashion of the world to the
end of time.

SONG.

1t was with doubt and trembling
whispered in her ear.
Go, take her answer, bird-on-buugh,
That all the world may hear
Sweetheart, sigh no more.
Sing it, sing it, tawny throat,
Upon the wayside tree,
How fair she Is, how true she is,
How dear she Is to me
Sweetheart, sigh no more
Sing II, sing 1t, tawny throat,
And through the summe long
The wind among the ciuver-tops,
And brooks, for all their silvery stops,
Shall envy you the song

IN >zUNOT'S FAVOR.
Decision in the Case of the Ac-
oused Detective.
Commissioner Don't Believe He
Tried to SwindIe Patterson.
Says the Sergeant Is Liable for
Breaking a Police Rule.

Police Commissioner Welles, of Brook
lyn, this morning, rendered decision
In the case of Detective-Sergt. George
V. Zundt, who was practically accused
by Charles NJ. Patterson, before the
Lexow Committee early in September,
of being implicated in a scheme to
swindle him out of $50.
Commissioner Welles says that he Is
convinced that Patterson was mistaken
In his impression that the police were
banded together to swindle him, but. he
says, that Zundt is subject to discipline
for not paying into the pension fund 10
per cent. of the reward he received
from Paterson.
Mr.. Patterson. who is connected with
the firm of Austin. Nichols & Co., testi-
fled before the Lexow Committee that
he had been robbed of diamond stud
while riding on an Elevated train in
Brooklyn. Supt. Byrnes placed De-
tectives Long and McManus on the
case, and Detectives Zundt and Ma
loney were detailed from the Brooklyn
Central Office.
Patterson said he was visited by
Zundt, who told him his stud had been
found in a Sixth avenue pawnshop. He
went with the detective to the place,
where, he said, he met the other detc-
tvss: The stone was produced, and he
VAS Informed that he would have to pay
S6l, so, the amount advanced upon It.
He did not have the money and Zundt
loaned 1t to him. He gave Lundt a
check for the amount, md anotherr or
der for S5U, as a reward. The following
day he concluded he had been swindled,
and stopped payment on the check for
$3.50 From the testimony which he
gave before the Committee, 1t was In
ferred that Patterson believed that the
stone had never been pawned and that
the detective had put up job to divide
the money.
Zundt has steadily declared that he
gave part of the reward to the other
detectives, and he has brought suit
agai Patterson to recover the money
he loaned him.
Zundt. in his settlement declared that
II there had been any crooked work in
the trasaction, 1t had been done by Lang
and McManus. He said that he had ex-
planned the conduct OF the New York
men to Supt. Byrnes, and as a result
they had been reduced to the ranks
McManus and Lang denied receiving
a penny from Zundt.
A high police official said to-day that
formal charges would probably be made
against Zundt to-day.

How Druggist Won Dessauer Dis
persed a Brooklyn Mob.
Two Policemen with Night Sticks
Were Unable to Do SO.

A Brooklyn druggist has demonstrate
ed that siphon bottle of soda water
has far more persuasive qualities on a
mob than policeman's club.
The druggist is Angelo Won Dessauer,
of 379 Atlantic avenue. A few nights
ago he heard his child crying for help.
She was playing in the street, and
some of the other children were stuff
ing South Brooklyn mud into her ears
He spanked the other children, which
was signal for couple Of dozen men
and women to pile upon him.
His cries attracted two policemen, who
handled their clubs freely. but without
the desired effect The mob increased in
size. Rushing into the drug store, Herr
Won Dessauer. grasped two siphons of
soda water and pointing them towards
the crowd, pressed the button. The soda
water got into the eyes. noses and ears
Of the mob, which scattered at once.
Michael Levlson, one Of the neighbors
procured a summons from Justice Tighe,
who yesterday fined Won Dessauer $40.
The two policemen, though notified,
failed to appear, and now Herr Won Des-
saur purposes to go cunning for them.
