ON THE STREET GAR.

The street car bounced and rumbled
over the crooked rails, and swung noisi-
ly around the corner. l was sitting with
my back to the front platform and was
facing everyone. had stared at them
all-at the pretty shop girl opposite me
with the big wondering blue eyes, shad-
ed by long silky lashes.; at the clerk be-
side in new brown checked suit; at a
tall, pale brunette in one corner who
looked proud and dignified enough to
be the daughter of hundred earis but
that she was chatting necessarily to her
companion and then remembered that
she sold hairpins and notions in large
dry goods store. On the rear sat tall,
round shOuldered man with a stubby
gray beard and wearing shiny black
coat and no necktie. slapped his knee
and waved his right hand aloft, in tell
ing little man with tin dinner pail
about the war and how it should be
conducted. On the rear platform there
were several boys, some putting labori-
ously at big cigars and others whistling
loud some popular air. In their midst
was the conductor, tall and good-na-
tured. with large spray Of spirea On
his coat lapel.
The car tore madly down little hill
and went on smoothly at the bottom.
Then it slowed for somebody to get on
and finally stopped altogether. Hooked
out. Beside the car was little woman
carrying huge bundle Of soiled clothes
in a dusty sheet. She was very slight
and her face, shaded by torn sun hat,
was thin and pointed. She wore faded
blue wrapper which tapped about her
as she moved. The sleeves came but a
little below her elbow, leaving her thin,
red arms bare. She walked hastily to
the front Of the car, staggering little
under her burden, and heard her say to
the motorman:
"Weren't-you were to take these
down to Mem, w'act you, Ned? Won't
you take 'em now? I've waited so long,"
leaned forward to hear the answer.
There was an indistinct growl and the
car started abruptly. As it flew on up
the street, saw the women walk back
to the stairway in the building she had
left and throw the big bundle with all
her force on the ground. Then she sat
down beside it, and l could see her
whole eight little body shake with her
sobs. turned around and looked at
the mctorman. His face was flushed
dark and his blue eyes were bright with
anger. He had red hair and his
shoulders we're very rounded. Away in
the distance. with the big brick building
for background could see the white
bundle and beside it the forlorn blue
little figure with the head in the lap.
And the clerks and the shop girls chat
ted on and in the corner the old man
was still telling "how to lick Spain"
HARRIET M. Cooke.
The courier. (Lincoln, Neb.) 1894-1903, 1898-06-25

Ramsey-While walking down the
street the other evening a Spaniard
asked me il could tell him the quick
est way to the nearest hospital.
Arthur-What did you tell him?
Ramsey told him to go on the
other side Of the street and yell three
cheers for Spain.

Island thrown upon her own resources,
how much better off would they be by
adding us to their opposing forces. To-
gether the two powers would have half
the wealth of the civilized world, one
third of the exportable food supply, a
navy vastly overwhelming that of united
Europe, and a practical monopoly OF the
carrying capacity. We could sweep the
seas of their merchant ships, we could
smash their war vessels in foreign waters
in detail as we found them. We could
capture their colonies and finally we
could harry their maritime cities and
provinces until they cursed the day when
Russia should assail India, simultaneous
descents upon the Baltic and Pacific
coasts of her empire would soon divert
her attention.; IL Italy tried the invasion
of Egypt. her army would be speedily
Isolated and it's position made untenable,
as was that of the great Napoleon.
france would first lose her west inuian
possessions and then would be subjected
to blockade, as she was in the early years
of this century. Germany would lose her
growing commerce. Her coasts could be
~blockaded by a small fleet cutting off
access to the Categat and watching her
North Sea harbors. Her African and
Oceanic possessions would then be easy
prey.
All these things are so absolutely self
evident that it is childishness to think
that European governments are blind to
them. They are not. Every proven fact
OF current history proves they are not.
There may be hatred of us. There may
be Jealousy. But there is also common
sense and knowledge of war. And we
have nothing to fear from any Continental
effort which would have the effect of
driving ourselves and England into an
offensive and defensive alliance. The idea
is preposterous.
