Like children I'm garden fair,
Who wander thro' each Powerful maze,
And drink from sunny founts with glee,
And look with long and lingering gaze
Upon the wondrous scene:-yet fain
Would be at home for love and rest
So we. in this bright world of ours,
With strange homesickness are possest
Through garden fair and palace proud
we Vainly seek our hearts 10 please.
Life spreads her feast-we sit us down,
Yet never are we quite at ease.

o. Zen with tho chalicelat our lips
1pme rapturous strain from shores afar.
That doth all meaner mirth eclipse
Yet earth, kind mother. fain would charm
And is herself so fair TO see
And offers many a cup of JOY,
But none without safety:
And she hath many a garden fair.
That tempts our eager feet TO roam.
Yet never are we quite at ease,
And never feel we quite at home!
What meaneth II, that We should weep,
More for our Joys than for our fears
That we should sometimes smile at grief,
And look at pleasures show thro tears
Alas-but homesick children we,
Who would, but cannot play, the while
We dream of nobler heritage,
Our Fathers house, our Fathers smile!

clared, adding, after an instant, land the
other rascals who serve as witnesses"
"Was it one Of your witnesses in this
lawsuit that you went to see this aft
ernoon?" she shrewdly demanded,
struck by something in the tone of thn
last words.
The colonel looked family surprised.
"IIe is one of my witnesses now" he
returned, with grim emphasis on the
last word. But, for heavens sake,
Dorothy, what has come over you?
You remind me of your mother"
Dorothy laughed, too well accus-
toned to such overt attacks upon her
mothers methods to think Of resenting
the imputation in her behalf. The
truth Of the matter was that the late
Mrs. Meredith, seeking TO pry with i'll.
advised pertinacity into such matters
as the colonel regarded as his own pri-
vate concerns, would have been rcle-
gated TO her legitimate sphere of in
terests with scant ceremony. while at
the same time the deprecating meek
ness with which she had ever submitted
to his brusque methods of belittling
her had only served to increase bound
lessly the colonel's contempt for such
an unassuming type Of woman. He was
secretly proud that his daughter hal
inherited pluckier poise. complacently
persuaded that every quality he all
mired in her was a direct inheritance
from himself; but at the same time he
had n habit, which the girl, who had
greatly loved her mother. keenly re-

farm land in that vicinity, which he has
titled ever since, with the exception of
a term which he served in congress.
In 1892 he ran against Maj. John +.
Lacey for the office and won. He was
then, as now. most ardent advocate
of free silver. and those farmers in his
district who agreed with him in that
opinion gave him their most hearty
support. He made a stir in the Fifty
second congress by fiery speech on
his pet topic. and when he returned to
his home he was sure that his next cleo
tion would be easier than his first. But
in this he was sadly mistaken, for Maj.
Lacey opposed him again. and this time
defeated him. Congressman Lacey
again defeated him last fall, but these
defeats only served TO strengthen his
hold with the free silver minority in the
state. and he was soon talked of for gov

An appeal for aid to her wealthy con-
nections, the Huntingtons, by Olga, it is
claimed, resulted in request that she
be careful not to disclose her identity
and a second plea for assistance was re-
warded with ten-dollar bill.
According TO the story told by Olga S
mother, Annie Baker, Count Edmund
Won Hatzfeldt was forced to leave Ger
many for fighting duel and breaking
the laws. In New York he married an
American woman, who soon died. Later
he married beautiful half-Indan girl,
and, being freed from her by divorce,
married Anna Auer, a well-known ac-
tress. Their child was Olga, the young
countess. The count lost all his money
in theatrical ventures, and is now liv-
ing at Evansville, Ind.
Olga's mother obtained divorce
from her husband, securing the custody
of her child, and she MARI, Willis
Baker, an actor. The family has met
with many reverses. and now finds it
hard to secure enough TO eat.
This little girl was told by her mother
never to reveal her true name, and she
was brought up for the stage. She met
with poor success and of late has been
singing in concert halls. Her mother,
spurred on by her needs, finally made
an appeal TO Coils p. Huntington, and
was referred by him to his wife. who
gave her ten dollars on her second visit.
Mrs. Huntington, according TO Mrs.
Baker, requested that the connection
be kept secret.
Mr. Huntington. when asked for n
confirmation of the story, said he knew
nothing beyond the mothers state
ment. He declared the child could have
no claim on him or his family, and said
his wife had simply helped her because

ROMANTIC MARRIAGES.
Love Matches I'm the German Royal
Family.


There had been an extraordinary num-
Der of romantic marriages among the
Uohenlohes. The one which caused
the greatest sensation at the moment was
perhaps that of Prince Karl, the eldest
brother of the present statthalter of
Alsace-Lorraine. The young princes
sster-now duchess of Schleswig-Hol
stein and mother of the German kaiser
in-was in her girlhood very fond of
cooking, and she and n number of
other young ladies formed n class for
the purpose of taking regular instruc-
tons from the palace chef. One day
Princess Adelheid coaXed her brother,
who had been in the habit of soothing
at her efforts, to join them in the kitch-
en- and watch the manufacture of waf
feln. Prince Karl came with reluc-
lance, asserting that he would escape
again a once, but stayed on and on, and,
what is more, attended every future
lesson from commencement to close.
The attraction was soon discovered TO
be the presence Of very pretty and
lively young lady, Fraulein Marie Cath
their mutual affection encountered
strong opposition from the princes pa
rents, who deemed it out of the question
that their eldest son and heir should
marry simple burgher's daughter.
This fact, however, only rendered
Prince Karl more determined than ever
and when, by the death of his father, in

the prince removed to Salzburg and his
son entered the Austrian army, the
home circle being further broken up by
the early marriage of his eldest daugh-
