TRUE FRIENDSHIP.
A Little Story About the New Governor
of New York and His Wife.

A Little Story About the New Governor
of New York and His Wife.
When Governor Black Of New York
was inaugurated on New Years day,
one of the ladies on the platform beside
Mrs. Black was Mrs. Michael Russell,
who also helped the governors wife re-
ceive the friends who crowded to the re-
ception at the executive mansion. The
story of how Mrs. Russell comes thus
into state prominence is touching tale
and ought to reflect much credit upon
Mr.. Black and his charming wife.
Shortly after Mr.. Black went to Troy
be got humble clerical place in the
local postof1ce. He was very poor. and
the mere act Of living was a struggle.
Among his superiors was Michael Rus
sell, who took fancy to him and helped
him along by giving him advice and en-
couragement. Russell made his liking
for Black public and created opportuni-
ties to be with him outside Of mis- Office
hours. Those who know how valuable
the attention of big man to little
man Is will appreciate what real serv-
ice this was. Mrs. Russell and Mrs.
Black became warm friends.
AS Black grew in prosperity the for
tunes of the Russells began to decline.
Everything seemed to go against Russell
until he was compelled to open little
grocery store in order to earn living
He is still a grocer, and Mrs. Black is
still the warmest friend Mrs. Russell
has,
"When we wers in trouble, " said
Mrs. Black, "Mrs. Russell wept with
us, and now in the days of our prosper
ity want her to laugh with us. -
So Mrs. Russell stood by Mrs Black
side and shared whatever duties anc
honors grow out Of being a governors
wife.

Foreign Nations Complain That Their SfEi-

Secretary OIney is now engaged with

Americans who have returned to the
land of their birth and are suspected of
not having the animus revertendi, which
is the diplomatic phrase for an intention
OF returning to the United States This
has always been a very serious matter,
particularly in Germany, Turkey and
Russia and Of late with Spain, in regard
to her Cuban subjects
The United States is one of the easiest
countries on earth in which foreigner
may acquire citizenship, and a great
many disconnected persons come here
from the monarchies of Europe simply
for the purpose of taking out NATURAL
zatlon papers in order to claim the pro-
lection of our consuls abroad in case
they get into trouble and to seek an
asylum in this country if they are ban
ished from their own. The Germans
come IN order to escape military service
that is required Of every citizen of that
empire; the Russians, Poles Hungari.
ans, Turks, Syrians, Armenians and
other subjects of Russia, Austria and
Turkey have similar reasons, and it has
been common custom for Cubans tC
spend their summers in the United
States and their winters at home until
they have been able to take out papers.
Nearly all the persons engaged prom.
inently in the Cuban revolution are cit
liens of the United States. Nearly al.
the citizens of the United States who
have been arrested in Cuba for com.

The Yuletide LOG.

Christmas eve is the time to put the
Yule log on the fire. In old times it was
the custom to bring it into the house
with great ceremony and merriment
The YuIe log was always lighted with
the brand of the last years log, which
was carefully preserved for this pur-
pose. The burning of the log had the
effect Of purifying the house Of evil
spirits. It must be lighted, therefore
with clean hands.
With the Yule log went the Christmas
candles, which were lighted at the same
time and placed. wreathed with ever
green, In the most conspicuous portion
of the room. In Catholic times the can-
dies were often of three branches, sig
nifying the Trinity. Exchange.

GOING TO SEED.
A Correspondent Thinks Congressman Are
Not What They Were.


1t is fact that the habits of congress
men have been revolutionized within
the last dozen years. One need not &C
back to the days of Clay and Webster
for time when most of the great states
men of the day were to be seen con-
stantly mingling with the mob around
the hotels and at the bars. Not that
they drank to excess. nor that they
drank more than they do at this time,
but assuredly they were oftener to be
seen touching elbows or glasses with
men who could give them a shrewd
idea of what the world outside was say
ing of them. They delighted to come to
the capitol long before the hour of meet
ing and sit about and smoke and gossip
and tell witty stories. Many shrewd
policy was initiated and mellowed and
pluoked in such circumstances.
During the last half dozen yeaks there
has been plainly noticeable a growing
exclusiveness among congressman as a
class They are less with and Of the
people. They keep out of the public eye,
except when in their seats They come
late to the capitol, and the moment the
gavel of the speaker or the vice presi-
dent falls to announce adjournment they
are off so quickly that one would think
they had disappeared through the floor.
1t is selfshness which is in no way
beneficial to them, though it may be
very comfortable. 1t makes them cold
and listless. Congress has not half the
snap and go and wit and vital, robust,
wholesome heartiness that it had few
years ago. Of course there are few
choice ones who have not changed, but
the mass, who typify the craftsmanship
of the time, are not SO human as those
older ones and give to the public life of
Washington neither color nor vitality.

Mailing Candy Abroad.

A young man who apparently knows
girl in London came into the office the
other day and asked whether candy
could be sent abroad through the mails.
So he was taken over to the postofice
and the state of affairs was laid before
an official, who instigated an investiga-
ton. After long time he returned and
reported as follows:
II am very glad" said he, "that you
asked that question. Its answer shows
curious state of affairs. In this coun
try you can send candy up to 1 pounds
as merchandise for / cent for each
ounce. If you want to send candy
abroad you only have to pay cent for
every 2 ounces, but you can only send
10 ounces in each package. If it weighs
more than 10 ounces you have to pay
letter rates, or 10 cents an ounce for che
whole thing.
"That is to say, you can send 10
ounces to London for cents, but it
would cost you 10 cents 20 send il to
Brooklyn. So il you are thinking Of
sending pound it will cost you Oh. so.
The stamp department is right over
there.
'"Thank you very much, !" said the
young man. 81 just happen to remem-
Der that the doctor has forbidden the
girl to eat candy. New York Mail

and in few minutes he produced the

mentioned.
The poor clerks eyes popped fire al
most, AZ he looked at the young lady in
utter establishment, for he was not aware
that song by that name had been pub

"Wh-what did you say, Miss?'
"'Kiss Me-" said she.
81 can't do it; never kissed a young
lady in my life" said the clerk.
And about that time veil dropped, a
young lady left in hurry, clerk felt
