1T CURED THE COOK.

The Result Of Her Masters Wres-
thing Match With the Telephone.
"About a week after the telephone
was installed-any electrical device is
always installed when it is brought
into the house-the cook was suddenly
taken i'll in the middle Of the night,
and was requested to telephone for the
doctor. 1t took me fully ten minutes OF
prolonged ringing and yelling before
could induce the central Office to put
me- into communication with the doc
tor. Then I~sent an agoniZod howl
through the telephone, begging the doc
tor to come at once.
''In the course of the following hour
six different persons carried on brief
them was the doctor. In the case OF
each person it took about ten minutes of
hard labor to induce him to say any
thing ineligible, and when the intel
ligible remark arrived it was to the
effect that the speaker was Brown or
Jones or Robinson; that he was not a
doctor, and that he would inflict per-
sonal chastisement on the man who had
called him out of bed if he could find
the criminal in the morning.
g At last, however. my efforts were
apparently crowned with success. A
wretch who said he was the person OF
whom was in search promised to call
at my house at once. Accordingly one
hour and quarter after I had first rung
the telephone 1 received hurried call
from the local undertaken, who insisted
that had telephoned to him to. bring a
coffin without moments delay. I got
rid d him at the expense of shillings
and glass of wine, and am happy to
say that the shock of the visit cured the
cook without the aid of any other med
icine Wv. A. Alden in Pearson s

DIDNOT BREAK
Washington Knows of No Serious

tiatiOns.
Adyices at Hand Said to Be
Rather Encouraging Than
Otherwise.
Postponement of Proceedings Due
to a Request of American
Commissioners.
Foreign Governments Take For.
NAL Steps in the Matter of
Spanish Obligations.

4. WASHINGTON, Nov. $50 far the as
state department knows there has been
no break in the peace negotiations in
Paris and if any difficulty had arisen
officials says it would certainly have
been reported promptly to the depart
ment. 1t is assumed, therefore, that
there must be some purely internal rea-
son for the pOstponement, perhaps the
convenience of the commissioners The
advices that have come to hand so far
are said to be rather encouraging than
the reverse and there is a disposition
here to agree to the statement rather
curiously made by the Spanish cabinet,
that there would in all probability
be three or four more meetings
of the joint commission. This is
taken as an indication that the Span
iards themselves are not looking for a
break in the negotiations, but that they
rather expect a peaceful conclusion
in short time. The foreign bondhold-
ers have at last moved formally to pro-
tect their interests in Cuba and Porto
Rico. The initial steps have been taken
through the agency of the French en-
bassy, which in this case acts no longer
as the representative OF the Spanish gov
eminent, but for French subjects.
Through the embassy most formidable
statement has been presented to the
state department. being an account Of
the various Spanish bonds owned by
French citizens chargeable against the
territories either seized or set free by the
act of the United States government.
The sum total of these bonds runs up
far into the millions. Just what it is
expected shall be done with them
is not MADE clear. The United States
government of course will not pay
them, but it may be that the French
government looks to it to cause the in
dependent government of Cuba to as
sumo the liability for redemption of
the bonds charged against that island
when that government shall have been
duly installed by the act of the United
States government. 1t is probable that
other holders Of like bonds, German and
British, will take similar steps to have
their claims brought through their
diplomatic representatives to the atten-
ton OF the United States government.
1t may even be that the holders of such
bonds in Spain, though Spanish citizens,
will take like course, which would
present novel claim upon the genaros-
ity of the United States government.

THE OLD HYMN.

I sat within a vacant room,
A low ceiled room, quaint shaped, oak beam
ed,
With windows looking off to sea,
Ger which the sunsets glory streamed:
watched the farof fitting sails,
And "Halfway rock" that looming rose
tower from the heaving sea
Whereon the scattered isles repose.
And some one near me gently played
A dear old hymn that stirred my heart.
Twas 'Children of the Heavenly King"
And what it woke made quick tears start.
The long years seemed to backward turn,
And I, a little child again,
Held fast within his strong arms clasp,
While soft he crooned the old refrain.
Oh, just once more to be that child
And know again the blissful rest
The old hymn brought me, rocked to sleep
With pillowed head upon his breastl
But only yet little while,
Though earth may call it years that creep,
know he'll come to me again
And rock me to eternal sleep.
