BUCHANAN'S ROMANCE.
The Tragedy of II Started Him on the
Road tn the White House.

"A box OF old documents which had re-
maiDed long unclaimed in Washington
storage warehouse was sold for few cents
some time ago, and the purchaser, on
looking them over, was delighted co find
that they consisted of letters written TO
and by James Buchanan. Many of the
letters had some value as autographs, but
one was of especial interest, rs 1t threw
new light on an unhappy romance in the
early life of Lincoln's predecessor. 1t has
long been known that Buchanan died a
bachelor because his engagement with the
daughter of prominent resident Of Ian
caster, Pa, was broken by the girls par
ents. Her name was Annie Coleman, and
she died in 1870 n few months after the
trouble occurred, it Is said, from grief oven
the loss Of her lover. What excited he.
fathers hostility to young Buchanan is
not definitely known, but those most init
mate with tho two heard vaguely of anony
nous charges which Mr.. Coleman would
not allow his daughters suitor to answer
or even to hear. After Miss Coleman's
death Buchanan wrote to her father ask
Ing permission to attend the funeral. The
letter was returned unopened, and IL was
among those in the box bought from the
warehouse people. In it the future presi-
dent said:
"You have lost dear child. have lost
the only earthly object of my affections.
My prospects are all cut off, and 1 feel
that my happiness will be buried with her
in the grave. 1t Is now no time for ex-
planation, but the time will come when
you will discover that she as well as l,
has been much abused. God forgive tho
authors of II. My feelings of resentment
against them, whoever they may be, are
buried in the dust. have one request to
make, and for the love of God and of your
dear departed daughter. whom loved in
flnitcly more :han any other human being
could love, deny me not. Afford me the
melancholy pleasure of seeing the body be-
fore its intcrment.' ~
As stated the plea was not even read,
and Buchanan, finding the animosity Of
the wealthy Coleman family too much for
young lawyer in "a small town to contend
with, left tho place and soon afterward en-
tered upon the political career that ended
in the White House New York Times.

THEY HAD THEIR SMOKE.

Juliaa HswtA0rDe Tells some Yleaaaai
Memories q Richard Grant white.
Mr.. Julian Hawthorne has been printing
some pleasant memories OF Richard Grant
White. He says that some knew his
foibles, others his strength, but that few
were acquainted with the man "all
round.' Mr.. Hawthorne got to have an
affection for him similar to that which
one feels for woman, and he says:
His spirit was feminine. It had the fem
inine edge, refinement, wit, sensitiveness.
His love OF delicate details was feminine,
and so was his aesthetic voluptuousness,
which not only had its effect on his per-
sonal character, but, In conjunction with
his clear and discriminating intellect,
made him the great musical and literary
critic that he was. With these traits he
was masculine enough in his outward pre-
sentiment, and had instinctively built up
masculine fortification round himself by
dint of that very feminine tact and insight
dwelling within. He was bony, well pro.
portioned and athletic OF build; his phys.
ical strength was as much above that of the
ordinary man as were his inches more
never SPARED with him, but what a reach
he would have hadl There seemed to be
no end to him.
One night, L recollect, after n long bout
at smoking and talking with me and some
English cronies, White went to bed, bid.

courtesy There had been running short
of smoking tobacco shortly before his de.
parture, and after he had gone we fell To

nants, since no fresh supply could be laid
in till the next day. Then, an awesome
thing happened; for the door of the study,
which was on the crack slowly and gently
moved inward, yet no one appeared. But
10, upon our strained attention broke a
portent; for an arm, clothed i'm white
samite, mystic, wonderful, came over the
top of the door, bearing in its hand not
Excalibur, but package of tobacco, and
then the smiling yisage of Richard him

on; he was too modest to show himself in
this unconventional attire and had there

vanished silently, like the shark, and was
seen no more that night. We smoked a

The Inquirer admits that, up to this time.
there have been few instances of dishon-
esty among the vast number of women
who have occupied responsible positions,
but II accounts for the scarcity OF female
rascals in business by the statement that
woman has not yet had the same OPP
portunities nor the same temptations as
those which surround man." 1t says that
when we find women presidents of indus
trial corporations, of trust companies, end
OF banking institutions, or cashiers and
paymasters with the handling of enor-
nous sums of money, and find that they
do not give way to temptation, then 1t
will be time to argue in favor of their SUI
pcrior integrity, but at the present time
conditions do not exist upon which TO
base the conclusions that some arrive at
so cursorily."
1t may be that there is still left a peg
on which to hang a doubt of the superior
honesty of the female sex. 1t Is possible
that, II women and men had for ages
been exposed to equal temptations, they
would now be on a common level as to
morality. But we think there are some
strong grounds for the belief that nature
gave to woman a greater love of honesty
than she bestowed on man. For the last
thirty years there has been n continuous
and rapid increase in the number of wo-
men employed in stores and offices. as
clerks and cashiers, and contemporaries
ous.y with this there has been absolutely
no increase I'm the proportion of female
criminals. 1t strikes us that this is a
very significant fact. In the United
States, as in all other countries, the
criminal statistics are an eloquent tribute
TO woman's honesty. We cannot help be-
lieving that nature more than education
and environment is responsible for this.

A NV Departure.

Eugene V. Debs may yet merit more
praise than he has received if he con-
tinues to advocate the pacific pro-
gramme suggested in his Sunday night
speech in Chicago. 1t is a conclusion
which may we'll be forced upon the
attention of the walking delegate and
the fiery-tongued labor agtator that
the future of Social Democracy can
have no hope from the dagger or the
torch. Debs' advice to the anarchis-
tic element that it would be better for
it to withdraw from the organization
will gain him many enemies among
the apostles of fire and sword, but it
will give him a renewed hold on the
more conservative and intelligent men,
bers of the great labor population of
this country.
The fact that Fitzgerald Murphy
frankly acknowledges that he made a
mistake in uttering such firebrand SEN
timents regarding the killing of the
strikers at Hazleton, is also especially
significant at this time.
