Bland All TilI.,a,.

The Hon. Richard Parks Bland and
the Honorable Benjamin pitchfork
Tillman are both before the country
with statements as to wheat and pros
perity. Neither sees any signs of &C.
tual prosperity anywhere in the land.
They admit that the farmers may get a
few hundred million out of the rise in
wheat, with which prospect they really
express themselves as pleased, but the
whole business, they say, will not
amount to anything, and the prosperity
Of which they hear murmurings will
soon collapse into nothing. MI. TIL
man characterizes the prosperity wave
as "hot-balloon affair."" and Mr.. Bland
carefully analyses the situation in the
country and sees nothing hopeful in it.
Probably not, nothing hopeful in it-for

Love and Genius.

Many men Of genius have undoubt-
eddy believed, with Thackeray, that it
Is better to love foolishly than not at
all; that they practiced this philosophy
is proved by their memoirs and biogra-
phies. Leigh Hunt loved a good girl
whose spelling was unconventional,
and whose chirography could not be
called her chief accomplishment. Keats
was wildly, madly in love with a COM
monplace girl named Fanny Browne.
He married her, but she was incapable
of approaching him. Hazlitt, the bril-
liant essayist, loved the pert, coarse
daughter of his landlady. He wrote
her letter which she never answered,
and he said that ''the rolling years Of
eternity would not fill up the blank
that her failure to answer that letter
caused" A practical Scotch girl, Char
lotte Carpenter, won Walter Scott's
love. She not only hated literature,
but objected to writing to him. He
wrote her saying: ''You must write me
once a week" She replied: ''You are
quite out Of your senses, and you need
llOL put LII 81 ululiy LII yOuA ICt-
ters. It is beginning too early" Walter
was foolishly in love with Lady Doro-
thea Sydney, who was his "Saccharis-
sa." She liked his love making in poe
try, but when he proposed marriage in
prose, the idea did not appeal to her.
Alfred de Mussets love for the IRE
sponsive George Sand gave his
thoughts such an extraordinary eleva-
tion that he wrote many brilliant
poems in consequence. Thomson had
his Amanda and Littleton his Mamie.
Chaucer sang the praises Of many
queens, but his one great love was
Phillippa Picard de Rouet, the lady in
waiting to Queen Anne of Bohemia. He
waited nine years to marry her, but
made it a matter of complaint In sew
eral poems. Moore lived up to his the
DRY that loves young dream is the
sweetest thing in life. He never let one
love get old before he supplanted it
with a new. Carey had his Sally Of
'Sally in Our Alley" fame. Surrey
loved Geraldine from the time she was
a child in short dresses. Corneille, the
astute lawyer, fell in love and became
the brilliant dramatic poet. Thus it
seems that love, whether; successful Or
otherwise, for time inspires it's vo-
taries.

rho section as read, and as passed,
was submitted to every member OF
the WAYS and Means and Finance
Committees by the friends of Ameri-
can shipping. The clause was revised
by United States Senator Elkins OF
West Virginia, and general informa-
ton on this subject was furnished to
the members of the committees to-
gether with draft Of the section by
the American Protective Tariff
League. There was nothing of mys-
ferrous nature about the proposition;
nothing accidental. 1t was purely IN
territorial, for the sole purpose OF eX-
tending the policy of protection to
American transportation interests both
by land and sea.

CHAPTER XXX.

The sound of carriage wheels reused
Bcatrix and Beltran from their trance of
delight Beatrix looked at her lover.
"They are come, she said, and the
proud face grew pale as from some great
emotion.
Beltran kissed the sweet lips that had
already hidden such defiance to love.
There will be a battle to fight, my
darling" he said. Oh, Beatrix, my heart
misgives me! have been selfish. ought
never to have told you Of my love-"
"Would it have been better, then, to
! have left me to be unhappy forever?' she
| asked.
"Your uncle must be told at once" said
Beltran. when would you advise me to
see him?'
Tomorrow morning." she replied, ''be-
! fore luncheon"
"He will be angry with us, / know"
said Beltran, ''and / am sorry for it. l

"And l love my uncle very dearly. He is
sterling. noble man.

her heart full of her new-found happi-
ness.

to herself, "this love that despised."
One of the first things she did was to

The letter concluded with expressions
of good will and continued interest. Bea-
trix felt light of heart when she had writ
ten it. If he could but have believed her
when she had spoken before!
Then she dressed for dinner, feeling as
though she moved on air, so unutterably
happy was she.
Lady Lennox looked up in wonder at
the beautiful, radiant vision that seemed
to float into her room-Beatrix, in her
sweeping dress Of white silk, with roses
in her hair, her bright face flushed with a
glow of happiness that was new to it, her
eyes bright with the sweet story Of her
| love.
''Trixie, my darling" said the gentle
mother, 'how we'll you look!'
The girl went up to her; she knelt by
her side, and clasped her warm arms
round her neck.

Tuning Up.

It has often puzzled the uninitiated
why musicians tune their instruments
in public, and not before they enter the
orchestra. If they manipulated them
before entering the theater or concert
room they might find the temperature
different In the place Of performance,
and the instruments would not be In
tune.
