ity. Through the influence and assstance
of friends, she was persuaded to allow him
to go to London for study, where his voice
and talent soon won for him a position
among the choir boys in one of the leading
cathedrals.
In course of time, however, came a long
interval during which the mother heard
nothing from her beloved son, and in con-
sequence became prey to the most dead.
ly fear and anxiety. Knowing no one in
London to whom she could appeal, her
mind instinctively turned in this soul
stress to the one great heart in England
that for years had stood to her for all that
was most noble, strong, fine, womanly
and sweet. So in a perfectly simple way
she wrote letter to George Eliot stating
the details of the case and giving the last
known address of her sons lodgings al
dressing the letter simply, London, Eng
land. This artless appeal did not fail 10
reach it's destination, and George Eliot lost
no time in hunting up the homeless youth,
though she failed to find him at the ad-
dress given. She traced him, however,
from place to place until she came upon
him i'll and forlorn among entire stran-
gers; and TO him her coming seemed IN
deed like the shadow of great rock in
weary land.
The humane and sympathetic woman
had the friendess boy taken Immediately
to her own home at Chelsea, where he was
nursed and cared for until restored to
health. She of course wrote at once 10

provided ways and means for her to come
to England to visit her boy. But by the
time that the grateful mother had made
the long voyage, her sons noble benefdc-
tor had gone to join the "Choir Invisible.
The Lewes sons, however, had become SO
interested in the youth, and were so pleas
ed with the character of the mothers
letters and her naive sweet faith in the
power and love of their mother, that they
continued to look after the boy, and ex-
tended to the unknown American upon her

from Puyallup to hold a consultation with
Mud Bay Louie, and incidentally to visit

Leschi, who speaks perfectly intelli-

reporter something about the Shaker re-

all other religions, to make people better

said. "Of course there are some that fall

THE SENATORIAL POKER PLAYERS
Will Not Reject IA Nominee for Las

One of the alleged objections to Mr.
William II. Fowle, whom the president
has nominated for internal revenue col
lector at Lynchburg, Va, the Baltimore
Sun says, Is that he once lost $500 at a
game of poker in Richmond. This should
not arouse any prejudice against him IN
the senate, however, although 1t is re.
ported that the nomination will be on
posed by the Virginia senators. If poker
playing were bar to public office there
are those who say that many of the shin

be Statesmen out of job" In fact po<-
er is understood to be one of the favorite
senatorial diversions, and there are states
men in that branch of congress who arr.
said to have far deeper knowledge of
the intricacies of the game and the diff
culties which pave the way to a successful
dash upon Jackpot than they have of
finance and political economy. True, they
talk most in public about that of which
they know least, and say little of a sub
ject about which many of them are al
legged to have an astonishing fund of in
formation If poker playing is Mr.. Fowle's
only offense, his nomination should be
confirmed without difficulty, and perhaps
the senate might also be induced to pass
a resolution Of sympathy for a man VINO
was so unfortunate as to drop $500 at one
sitting. Mr.. Fowle might, moreover. get
enough points from the senatorial poker
players to avoid such a calamity in tho
future. Assuming that, like the senators
in question, he is not yet a member of an
anti-gambling association.
