What time she loves me and doth lay
Her little hand in mine,
The winter blossoms like the May
And stars through storm-clouds shinet
What time she loves me not-ah, me!
In spring the winter seems to be
When do feel that she is kind,
Life hath no more to give,
For sweetly doth the sun and wind
Make all Life's violets live
But when. perchance, her frown l see,
Life's last, sweet violet dies for me
How, on her lightest touch,
My hope, my heaven depends!
If it be i'll to love so much,
Love maketh all amends
Cruel or kind though she may be,
Her love is heaven and earth to me

A Carp Aged 800 Years.

Washington News.
When the fish commission, some
years ago, began to introduce carp
into the streams of this country it
is doubtful if they knew what a
lasting monument they were build
ing. 1t is pretty generally known
that the sluggish, and, to fisher
men, despicable denizen of the
water is gifted with a tenure of
life, barring chance encounter with
hook, big black bass with his
back up or other vicissitudes of
piscatorial existence, which eX-
ceeds that of most creatures, but
the actual age that they do attain
under favorable circumstances is
appalling. There are very few fish
ermen who haven't yarn about
some trout or bass that has been
known to frequent the SAME pool for
many years, but Assistant Secre-
tary of State Rockhill tells of a
carp that can give any of these
fish points on how to attain long
life. He says that in pond at
Fontainebleau there is or was
when he was last there, a barna-
cled old carp that had been placed
in the pond in the reign of Francis
l. AS that monarch flOurished dur
ing the sixteenth century, Mr..
ROckhill's carp is considerably
more than 800 years old. To pre-
vent any mistake by future gen.
erations the gentleman who occu-
pied the office of commissioner of
fish and fisheries for the royal
highness placed a metal tax in the
carp's fin, and it is by this mark
that the fish is known from the
others in the lake.

WASHINGTON, June 90 With

the Senate entered upon the 18th
week Of the tariff debate and re-
sumed consideration of the income
provisions.
Hill called attention to the fact
that six hundred and thirty-five
millions in government bonds were
necessarily exempt from the opera
ton of the tax, although the osten-
sible purpose Of the act was to
reach wealth and equalize taxa
ton. He then moved to exempt
state, county and municipal bonds
and argued that the taxation OF
state bonds would be direct at
tack on the administration states
The amendment was defeated p

MacVeagh Forging Forward.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, June 26.-The
boom for Franklin MacVeagh for
United States senator took a solid
form today, and there is almost no
question but that both Mayor
Hopkins and Governor Altgeld are
preparing to see the Chicago man
through, If the Democratic state
convention makes a nomination.
In addition to this, MacVeagh
himself will be actively on the
ground this afternoon to look after
his interests. Black is not appar-
emily gaining, and predictions are
that if the vote is taken, he cam
not pull over two hundred Of the
votes already pledged him and
these will not hold together for
any length of time.
Probably thirty of the delega-
lions are already on the ground.
"Upon the sentiments of delegates
to arrive tonight and tomorrow
morning will rest the question OF
the nomination of senator for
Cook county," said Ben 7. Cable
"Chicago can dictate the nomina-
ton, if it desires. 1t cannot dictate
the nominee" The opinion is hour.
Iy growing there will be a nomina'
ton made by the convention.

FUNERAL JOURNEY.
Remains of Carnot at Home-Feeling
Against Foreigners Becoming
More Bitter.

ASdluSL
More Bitter.
PARIS, June 26.-The funeral
train with the remains Of the MUIR
dered president of the Republic
arrived here at3:l0 this morning.
The ceremonies at the station
only consisted of a formal
transfer of the remains to the
project of the Seine. They were
then escorted to the Elysee by a
guard of honor and followed by
five carriages, including the Lam
dau which was occupied by Mime.
Carnot and her three sons. AT the
palace the body was received by
the officers of the late presidents
civil household and conveyed to
ore of the reception rooms
which had previously been
converted into a mortuary chapel,
hung with black cloth and having
the catafalque in its centre, upon
which, in silver letters, was the
initial "C' over the letters ar +"
(Republique t'rancoise). The widow
was so overcome with emotion
when the casket was placed in the
mortuary chapel that she was COM
PEELED to retire to a private room,
where her sons did their utmost to
console her. 1t is now said to be
an established fact that Santo
lived for some time in the Rue
Traversiere, this city, occupy
ing room in the house
of an Italian wine dealer.
The assassin's name was register
ed at the Labor Exchange. The
feeling against Italians in partic-
ular and foreigners in general,
aroused by the assassination Of the
president has caused several fac
tories in the suburbs of this city
to discharge all foreigners in their
employ and it is expected
that the same course will be
adopted by other factories. 1t is
hoped, however, when the sympa.
thetic action of the king of Italy,
the Italian chambers and Premier
Crispi have become more generally
known throughout France, a great
deal of this feeling against Italy
will be softened.
LYONS, June 26.-Disorder here
and at other places inFrance result
ting from Indignation Of the
people at the assassination of
President Carnot, continued
throughout the night. Crow DIS
thronged the streets and in spite
of efforts OF police and military
they sacked Italian stores and
taverns, and after throwing their
contents into the streets made
bonfires of everything combusti-
BILE. Police frequently charged
the rioters, who, however,
always retreated before the Of
ficers of the law, seeming
determined to demonstrate the
fact that they were vindictive
against the Italians only and not
seeking a conflict with the authori-
ties. Many Italians barely escaped
with their lives. Wholesale pillage
reigned supreme in Lyons and
numbers of Italians have been
hopelessly ruined. The troops
supported the police in every case
in their effort sto restore order.
