When Mark Twain Felt Embarrassed.
When Mark Twain WAS first intrnd uceG

Wnen Mark Twain was 11fSt introduced
to Gen. Grant the latter shook hands in
perfunctory manner and Immediately
relapsed into his customary attitude of
reticence. There was an awkward pause;
it grew longer and longer as the humor-
list tried to think of something bright to
say. Finally, as if in sheer desperation,
Twain looked up with an assumed air of
great timidity, and said 'Mr. Presi-
dent, II feel little bit embarrassed.
Do you?" The president could not ho'p
smiling, and Mark took advantage Of the
chance the incident presented 10 give
place to others.
Ten years later, when the statesman
and humorist met again, Cen Grant
with a twinkle in his eye, said, before
Twain had the chance to utter word:

Weldome of the Soldiers.

Now is the time to be glad!
Now is the time to be gay!
With welcome the city is mad,
And the flags and the winds are at play
There, down the street full of faces
Oike furrow that joy has plougheD,
The heart and the eye run races
Which first shall greet the proud.
Nearer and nearer they come!
You can tell by the cheer and the shout
That keep just ahead of the drum
Where the little flags break out.
l can tell by the bloods quick leaping
My sluggish veins along,
can tell by my footsteps keeping
The rhythm of battle-song.
Against them the sword of the Cid
In the hand of a naughty foe;
Against them the jungle that hid
n-fanged serpents arrow;
Against them the storm and the baking
OF sun on the rain-drenched skin;
Against them the feyer's aching,
Against them their countrys sin.
Here they are! father and lad
Now let us cheer them-but stay!
Too haggard that face to be glad,
Too weary those feet to be gay.
God! are these phantoms the handsome
Young knights that went eager to
save?
| O freedom, is this then the ransom
We give to the starved and the slave?
They whom we welcome today
| Why do they shout and cheer
| Lining each step of their way,
Seems like a dirge> and tear?
| Is it that some may be wearing
I4aurels of others? Ay, see!
| Count the thin ranks of the daring;
Each wears his laurels for three!

soliloquy of Cuba After the Peace Pro


The Yankees fingers
Were on the pie;
. One hundred millions
'Twould cost to try.
With shells and carnage
The game of bluff;
"That's but a trifie,
Why, there's the stuff"
Wars trumpet sounded,
The lannon's roar
Belched forth destruction
Around our shore.
Large troops of soldiers,
Mid battles din,
Our soil invading,
Came crowding in.
Suffice; the onslaught
Has passed away;
Twas quickly ended
That Cuban fray.
And now the spirit
OF Washington,
From camps elysian,
Looks calmly on.
His sons degenerate,
Our lands invade;
Usurp our functions,
Destroy our trade.
Impose big taxes
On tea and pipes;
Dispatching presents
OF stars and stripes.
Send spooks in dozens
To Christ'nize
And dancing masters
To civilize.
And strange devices,
Roth new and old.
Glass beads and trinkets
To sell for gold.
A tongue outlandish,
To speak and use,
That says things backwards,
And tells old news.
Sit up on two chairs,
In fashion new,
And scatter spittle
OF black plug, too.
Bring us clairvoyants,
Who toss the cup,
To tell our fortunes
And lift lis up.
A race aggressive,
OF motley mien,
Who push and jostle,
And go between.
Two-ninths are Germans,
One-tenth is Dutch,
One-fifth part Irish,
Franks not so much.
Some million Chinese -
The eye detects,
The Anglo-SaxOn
Is seen with specks.
And men of color,
A good supply,
Whose sins atrocious

GREAT DECLINE
In Importation of British Manufac-
lures Shown This Year.

Washington, Dec. Interpretations Of
United States seem likely to show an
unusual small total in the year 1898
The November statement of exports
from Great Britain to the United States
which has just reached the treasury
bureau Of statistics shows in nearly
every case that the expectation of man
ufactures in the eleven months ended
Novem Der 80, were less than in the cor
responding months of earlier years
Imports of manufactures in the early
part Of the year 1897 were abnOrmally
great and a comparison of the eleven
months Of 1898 with the corresponding
months of 1897 would in many cases be
misleading. A comparison, however
with the corresponding month of 1896
and 1898 shows in nearly all cases small
imports in 1898 than in either of the
earlier years. The imports of the eleven
months Of 1896 were the smallest with
a single exception since 1890 and those
OF 1893 were less than in the three years
which preceded it. In nearly all cases
of manufactured articles the figures Of
the eleven months Of 1898 show a reduc-
ton as compared with 1896 and 1893
and a very large reduction as compared
with 1897.
In 1ute manufactures, the imports of
the eleven months of 1893 were 95, 287, 300
yards against 143. 984, 300 in the CORE
spending months of 1897; in wooden
yarns the drop was from So, 600 pounds
TO $500 pounds in 1898 In wooden tissues
from SO46.1O0 yards in eleven months
OF 1897 to LAYS, 800 in eleven months of
1898, and in WOrsted tissues from 40
SCI, 200 yards in eleven months Of 1897
to 12.7O6. 400 in the corresponding
months Of 1898.
