like a strain Of forgotten music.
"Do you really mean buslness?" she
asked, as she shrank back into the
shadow.
For winner and no mistake.

No Miracle Needed.

san Franciseo AFgoBGut.
When Brigham Young was directing
the theocratic government OF Utah, the
Mormon missionaries In England con-
verted a one legged man. This man
conceived the idea that the prophet in
Salt Lake City might effect miracu-
lous restoration OF his leg, which he
had lost in an accident So a month
later he presented himself, weary and
travel stained, but full of cheerful hope,
before the head OF the Mormon Church,
and told his desires. The prophet said
he would willingly get him new leg,
but begged him first to consider the
matter fully. This life, he told him, Is
but vale OF tears, aud as nothing COM
pared with eternity. He was making
the choice OF going through lie with
one leg and having two after the resur-
rection. or Of having two legs through
life and three after. The man found
the prospect of being a human tripod
through all eternity so uncongenial
that he accepted with resignation his
present lot and excused the prophet
from performing the miracle.

LORD RANDOLPH CHURCHILL'S DOWNFALL
AND BREAKUP.
A Night In a Palace-A Windsor Mystery.
His Quarrel With the Primes Of Wales and
Slight TO the Qlssn-His FOrgiving Wife a
Tender Nurse.

Avatism is the word that will come
to the lips of many people on reading OF
the mental and physical collapse OF
Lord Randolph Churchill, whose case
has been pronounced as hopeless by the
leading London physicians, and whose
death is merely matter Of days. For,
inasmuch as the Churchill family owed
its first rise in the world and its eleva-
tion to the ranks OF the aristocracy to
the royal libertinism of King James H.,
there seems something natural In the
fact that Lord Randolph, who is un-
doubtedly one Of the most brilliant
scions that this house has ever pro-
dnced, should have fallen a victim to
the very same causes to which his an
cestors and ancestresses owed their
origin and preferment.

THE WRECK OF A MIND.

Last summer Lord Randolph's mind
commenced to show signs OF giving
way, and after most de plorable scene
in the House of Commons, where he
spoke in such a manner as to lead to
the impression that he was veay drunk,
he was sent off by his family on trip
round the world, under the care OF his
wife. His passage through New YORK,
Bar Harbor. Ottawa and vancouver
was marked by eccentric ntterance and
still more eccentric actions.
At Yokohama the public dinner organ
lied by the English Tories resident
there had to be abandoned In conse-
ouence of the state of his health, and
when he finally reached Bomban his
condition became such thatit was neces-
sary to place him under restraint and to
confide him to the care OF physician
to be conveyed home to England to die.
The malady from which he is suffer-
ing is locomotor ataxla, an atili ction
that deprives the victim of the control
of his muscles, a sort OF aggravated st.
Vitus's dance, most painful to behold.
He presents sad and striking contrast
10 the brilliant debater Of the House OF
Commons of ten years ago, and to that
resourcefn statesman who, possessing
the ms and outs of the intricate British
governmental system at his fingers ends,
was never at fault, always ready for
the fray and ever ready to find the
weak spot in the armor of his opponent.
What tndeared Lord Randolph most
to his countrymen was grit and his
readiness for fight. He was always
on the warpath, and as game as any
bantam rooster. No one represented
to a greater degree the spirit Of lingo
ism, whish is to be found in more or
less latent degree in the breast OF every
and which may be said TO
consist of firm conviction that En-
glishmen are thousand degrees super
Tor to every foreigner, and that the
whole universe belongs by right to
John Bull.

the direction that the wreck OF Lord

resolutions which embodied the prin-
ciples of the political organization that
has ruled the country during so many
administrations. Since then he has held
many important positions at the re-
quest of the party and is now spending
the evening of his life in comparative
quiet, although his unfailing energy
leads. him to continue in the practice Of
his profession. Mr.. Williams was born
in Windham county, Vermont, In 1917.
His father was a veteran of the war OK
1912 and moved to New York when tho
son was IL years old. In 1914 Albert Will
liams removed to Michigan and contin-
ued his law studies at Monroe. Admit
ted to the bar the following year, he
went to Ionia, where he has since re-.
sided. From 1S47 to 1851 he was prose-
cutting attorney of the county and short
1y after became one of the leading men
Of the state. He was strong abolition-
ist, but, until 1854, had trained with the
democrats. In July, when the Michigan
republicans organized the party under
the name it has since borne, Mr.. Will
liams was selected to represent his con-
gressional district at the meeting and
ever since has been a stanch supporter
of that party. That year he was elected
tICdSuIeI VI GUILTY anu III looV w do
again elected prosecuting attorney. In
1862 he was elected encouragement Of
the state and reelected in 1864. He
served through the administration OF
Austin Blair, the war governor Of Michi-
gan, and successfully combatted sew
eral determined attempts made during
those troublous times to mulct the state
out of large sums by the wildcat"
railroad and Improvement concerns.
The prohibitionists nominated him for
a supreme court judgeship and several
other offices during the seventies, but
since his retirement from public service
after the close of the war Mr.. Williams
has been well content to rest on the lau-
rels he gained in political life. Still, he
takes an active and keen interest in the
affairs of the day and is always ready
to participate in all public movements.
The activity he displays despite his
years has ceased to be a marvel to his
townsmen, but always causes surprise
among those who meet him only occa-
sionally. During the campaign Of 1894,
when Gov. Mckinley was in Ionia, Mr..
Williams endured march and the en-
suing exercises in terrific rainstorm
which compelled the younger men to
seek shelter. He declared the men Of
earlier days were Of hardy stock and
withstood the actual hardship Of the
ordeal without flinching. His death will
remove one of the characters Of the
west.
