they can foretell the coming of a thunder

there are with nerves so sensitive that
they are sure of having neuralgia

That Is What Mckinley Says of the Finan-
cial Plan at st. Louis.
Washington. June 2.-Quite a stir
was occasioned in political circles today
by the announcement of a visit of ex-
Senator Platt OF New York to Washing
ton. The senator seems 10 have been
especially anxious 10 avoid observation,
having visited the Arlington hotel for a
few moments only on his arrival, hur-
ried to the residence of Senator Quay,
where he had a conference with him He
returned TO the hotel late and left at z
o'clock this morning. Senator Quay has
been mysteriously ''out" to all callers at
his residence today. The visit of Mr..
Piatt to Senator Quay was not especial
ly unexpected, as those gentlemen have
been together since Mr.. Quayis visit to
Canton.
There Is reason to believe that there
is a movement on foot looking to har-
mony and an acceptance of the situation
by the eastern Republicans. One sig
nificant development of the past twenty
four hours is a dispatch in the New
York Advertiser, which has been ex-
treme in its opposition to Mckinley. The
dispatch is from its correspondent at
Cleveland, Ohio, who quotes Major Nc
marks touching his failure TO express
himself on the financial question:
That viii right itself at st. Louis"
This remark IS made a text for an
Ella aborate discussion OF the situation,
and declaration that it is an extreme
ly hopeful indication; that, in fact, it
may be practically accepted that the
platform is 10 be made such as 10 be
acceptable to the east, as we'll as to the
west, and that Mckinley and his friends
are working hard for harmony in New
York. This fact, taken with the under
standing which has been had here that
Senator Quay's visit was made in the
interest OF harmony all around. adds
greatly to the interest in the visit of
Mr.. Platt 10 Mr.. Quay.
The rapid development of the silver
strength among the Democrats west of
the Alleghanies shows the extreme gold
Republicans of the east that they can
not successfully demand all that they
had hoped of the Republican conven-
ton. They feel that their power TO de
mand a gold platform and a gold can
didate has been greatly weakened by
the events in the Democratic ranks in
the past two weeks. The possibility OF
the success of the Democrats in the
east no longer exists, and the gold men
in the Republican party are thus de-
prived OF the club which they were try
ing to hold over the western Repubii-
cans by threatening the loss Of the east
unless gold platform and a gold candi-
date were adopted at St. Louis.
All of these considerations are being
actively discussed IN connection with
the visit Of Mr.. Platt TO Senator Quay,
and predictions are made that the re
suit win be apparent in a cessation OF
hostifities in New York.

Our opera was to be Of high class,
and this impression so gained upon US
that we had great contempt for ordi-
nary music There was a colored man
in the neigh borhood named Henderson,
who owned an organ, and we finally be-
came so enthusiastic over the hign
grade music that was 10 distinguish
Saints on Earth" that we frequently
went out to stone Henderson's house,
when his children were playing common
hymns and the like. Church White
used 10 tell an exaggerated story based
upon this circumstance, but the facts
are as have stated
Finally Mr.. Stapper wanted the words
for love song he had in his mind, and
as I kept putting him off, he wrote the
words himself / give them herewith,
and 1 want 10 say they are about the
hottest words ever employed in love
song in any country:
Kiss me, darling, let your lips,
Be q rose that breaks apart,
And I'll be the bee that sips,
Honey from the roses heart.
An, the scarlet leaves unclose,
OF this blossom blown for me,
Happy fate 10 be rose,
Happier fate 10 be a bee!
The words Of the love song convinced
Mrs. Stapper that she would make a
great deal Of money out OF Saints on
Earth" when 1t was finally presented;
anyway, she fed Us better than ever,
and we sang the love song by the hour.
forgetting TO go ahead with the other
songs and the dialogue. Once. when
Mrs. Stapper was very enthusiastic as
10 the success OF the opera, the authors
sang the sextette from Lucia" and
made her confess that they were such
sperior singers that they rendered the
sextette as well as six ordinary singers
could.
Mr.. Stapper had the care Of the opera,
and kept 1t locked in his trunk. One Of
the ceremonies of the Schwab club was
getting the valuable manuscript out OF
the trunk, and for this important cere-
mony the children were sent out of the
room, but when I last saw the opera, IL
was lying on the table, near the herring
and nobody seemed TO care much about
ii. The Stappers moved out of that
neigh borhood soon after, and so far as
1 know, Saints on Earth is still in the
same condition: one song for General
Terror" and one song for the tenor.
