1t Declares for n Gold Standard and n
Return to Protection.
The platform, which was prepared by a
subcommittee headed by ex-Goyernor
Foraker, of Ohio, was the great bone of
contention in the convention. The prin-
cipal points are as follows:
We renew and emphasize our allegiance
TO the policy of protection as the bulwark

low-act0rS.

Neither had ever taken the hand of tn
other, and both had openly professed the
same antagonism in real lie that they ex-
hibited on the stage.
At the Actors Club, if Vernier was al
luded to in the presence of Reville, the lat
ter simply hurled out the one word
"cabotin" (strolling player), struggling his
shoulders contemptuously.
With Vernier, the epithet "pitren was
sufficient. He pronounced this word with
an enjoyment quite iHdescribable, and after
the manner of the fHpils of the Conservatory,
opening his mouth in The form of the cir
cumflex accent and rolling out the with a
tremendous vibration.i
Reville was wdower. Vernier was un-
married The wife of Reville had died
young-of consumption-leaving little
girl. beautiful with the beauty of Greuze
When Vernier, who WAS good deal of a
bear. caught sight of his rival on the street,
leading his little girl by the hand, he was
half conscious of softened feeling toward
his hated enemy, and he would growl out in
his deep voice:
"What lucky fellow he is u u and his en-.
vious eyes would follow the happy father on
his way to "patisserie," to buy crisp
little cake for Cecile.
The Porte ST. Martin had announced the
reproduction of "The Mysteries of Paris I"
for certain date, the principal role of The
Schoolmaster /" and Prince Rodolph to be
filled by Vernier and Reville
The disgust of Vernier knew no bounds.
He TO have this vile role. He TO serve as a
mere foil TO his rival, who, in his rich robe
de-chamber, with gold girdle and tassels,
would have ample opportunity of displaying
his manly beauty and "air noble" in full
view of the pretty women, while he, Vernier,
in rags and an old fur cap, would be pelted
with cabbages and execrations from the up
per gallery, the wretch from the "quartier
Muffetard being held in utter detestation
by the class frequenting that part of the
house.
As the rehearsal proceeded, vernier's in
dignation became more and more pronounced.
Suddenly, there came q rumor of Reyille's
illness. He had contracted violent cold,
attacking the lungs, which were seriously
affected, and the poor fellow was fat on his
back in the City Hospital.
His place was filled by an understudy, and
as all were somewhat eagerly awaiting the
expression of Vernier's satisfaction in the
new arrangement, he astonished everyone
by showing himself more dissatisfied than
before.
Early in the evening the audience became
conscious of something quite unusual
"bizarre" Vernier was not himself; he for
got his lines, passed his cues, stumbled,
hesitated.
1t was soon manifest to all that he missed
his old associate; that he was, in short, lost
without Reville, who, by his disdain, and
overbearing manner, his airs of grand
seignieur," had irritatsd him, aroused his

Indians rose up and poured in a shower
of arrows. The mule turned and ran
back to the valley, where Warner fell
off, dead, punctured by FIVE arrows. The
mule also died. The guide, who was
next to Warner, was mortally wounded ;
and one or two men had arrows in their
bodies, but recovered. The party gath

the Indians, who whooped and yelled,
but did not venture away from their
cover of rocks. This party of men re-
mained there all day without burying
the bodies, and at night, by wide cir

Williamson's camp. The news of War

Californians, who knew him well. He
was careful, prudent, and honest officer,
well qualified for bis business, and ex-
tremely accurate in all his work. He

until the advance Of the charging col
umn had almost reached the guns, then
pulled the lanyards and ran. The guns
were double-shotted with canister. As
they were discharged two gaps opened in
the Confederate column. Every man
in front of those guns went down.
Ii was a fearful revenge those two
gunners took. Capt. Cook says: Port
Republic was one of the most sangui-
nary battles of the war. 1t was fought
by Northwestern troops, the best in
their army. And, riding over the field
after the battle, jackson said: / never
saw so many dead in such small place
before"
He referred no doubt to the small
valley in front Of our guns. The Con-

Vernier, the fierce, treacherous, impsnitent

seated himself, in the chair at the head OF
the bed, saying in his deep bass voice, My

Beautiful "Accolade!" Thirty years OF

They remained closely clasped, each in the
others arms, looking into each OF hers friendly

tears.
Reville, raising himself on his elbow,

Paul ReviIle aud jean Vernier, two well
known and farorife actors, hated each other
| cordially. 8 ~
BY sort of fatality, as soon as either of
these irreconclable enemies undertook or
created a role, he was sure to see the name
Of his adversary, in bold type, side by side
with his own on the poster of the same
theater.
Both were always warmly received and
applauded. Reville was irresistible in role
requiring personal beauty and noble bearing
Vernier seemed the very incarnation of
meanness and treachery, the ideal scoundrel,
hardened and impenitent. Regularly, every
evening, toward IL o'clock, he was unmarked
and crushed under the heels of the righteous
and fascinating Reville.
In their mutual desire to annihilate one
another, they occasionally reached SUD-
Unity.
At the Odeon they have been seen--Re-
vile, under the scarlet livery of Ruy-Blas,
Vernier, under the Spanish cloak of Don
Salluste-pouring forth their romantic IT,
rades with such splendid sorority and ex-
preston as to create breathless enthusiasm
in the crowded audience.
Again at the Ambigu they were together
in "Ls Tour de Nesle," in lie Bossu," and
"Patrie." Always associated, always re-
ceiving together the ovations of an ehthusi-
astic public, always great artists of the old
school ESQ much loved by our fathers) and
always leaving on any role they assumed
the mark of their masterly conception.
They never exchanged a word, save before
the footlights, and during the long, laborious
rehearsals. Then, entirely ignoring their
own individuality, and projecting them
selves each into bis respective role. each
eyeing and measuring the other with the
air of Spanish grandee, and each stimula at
ing the other to his best, they would rise to
the full hight of their splendid powers, as
tonishing aud delighting their admiring fell

HENRY II. WAUGH BRoCKToN, MASS
While we deck their graves with flowers,
Think of them as gone before,
Aud as camped ON fields immortal,
There TO rest forevermore.
They have finished all their service.
And life's warfare now is Ger;
They hnve passed lifes outer pickets,
Over TO the other shore,
Where the days of strife are over,
Where the weary rest for aye;
Where earth's shadows never enter
Those bright realms Of endless day,
Every year our numbers lessen,
Death is thinning out our ranks.
And we're marching TO the river,
Even now we'er on its banks.
Soon we'll cross the swelling current,
Land upon the other shore.
Greet our comrades gone before US,
And be parted-nevermore.
