ROMANCE OF A CENTURY.
Lady Miilais, Once RusEin's Wife,
Meets Death From Kisses.


What the world has discovered of the
life of Lady Mil,ajs, whose death fol-
lowed soon after the recent demise of
her husband, proves again the time
honored truism that the truthful ro-
mances of every day life are stranger
by far than the fancies of fiction.
Death has taken the once beau
tiful woman through the kisses she
pressed on the lips of the great painter
who lay dying of an -incurable, conta-
gicus throat disease. She knew, but he
did not, that every caress meant step
to her death.
1t was fitting climax and termina-
ton to tale of wondrous love, to the
story of the life of John Millais; the
story of the splendid self abnegation
of an heroic soul; the love-life Of John
Millais and Fuphemia Chalmers Rus
kin, as the painter first knew the wom-
an who was to be the guiding star of
his destiny.
At this time John Millais, a young
painter Of promise, and at that time
a disciple of Ruskins school, sought
Ruskins acquaintance The art critic
recognized Millais' talent, at once be-
came his friend and often was his host.
Millais was about four and twenty
when he first saw Mrs. RHskin, and he
was one Of the handsomest men that
ever lived
The young wife, as she, first appeared
to MillaiS, was also a vision of beauty,
grace and purity. To his dying day
Millais repeated times without number
that in no other woman had he ever
found so perfect an incarnation OF
loneliness. The young painter, with
the keen, unerring eyes of love- divin-
ed her unhappiness. Ruskin's tempera-
ment and that of hisewife were radical
iy opposed q, .
The picture of THE Huguenot Lovers"
was at this time first contemplated and
afterWard executed with Mrs. Ruskin
at her husbands suggestion, posing for
the figure Of the woman. John Ruskin,
silent and taciturn, studied the paint
Ing, 1.-THE Huguenot Lovers" What he
had not seen in the eyes of the living
man and woman he recognized in the
eyes of the painted figures. In the ex-
preston of the heart-broken faces of
the Hueguenot lovers Ruskin saw the
whole truth. Then he performed an act
of supremest wisdom, of magnificent
courage. He sacrificed his life for the
woman.
He gave up his most precious treas
ure-the woman whose happiness was
dearer to him than his own. Quietly
and without heroics Ruskin told his
wife that he had devined her secret
Mrs. Ruskin, without the slightest
scandal, without the shadow of i'm
putation upon her character, was d.
vorced with the courts consent to her
resuming her maiden name. Three
months later she was married to John
Millais, and the bride was given to her
husband at the altar by John Ruskin.
Stories of love usually end with the
marriage ceremony. John Milla;s' love
story really began with his bridal day
1t continued uninterruptedly until the
gates of eternity opened to receive his
beautiful spirit.

CIVIL SERVICE CANVASS.
Majority of Republicans in Favor of
Change,

WASHINGTON, Jan. 15-The can
vass of Republican members of the
house of representatives on the aues-
ton of changing the civil service law,
which has been conducted by the Re
publican steering committee is about
completed. OF the POP Republican
members of the house the canvass is
said to show that a majority varying
from eighteen to forty is favorable TO
a change in the law, according to the
degree of change proposed. This last
factor leads to some d ference Of opin-
Ion as to the result of the canvass.
Representative Pearson of North Cs7o-
lima, member of the committee. PAGES
thu number of Republicans who can be
depended on at 112. Mr.. Evans, of Ken
lucky, another member of the commit
tee, places the number at 1856 Those
who have made the canvass claim that
IN number of cases the entire state
delegations are shown by the canvass
to favor a change in the laws, notable.
North Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky
West Virginia and New Hampshire.
The Minnesota count shows all but
one for a change; Michigan all but two;
in Pennsylvania twenty-five out of
twenty-seven Republican members are
counted in the canvass for a change in
the law. Beyond completing the can
vass, the opposition to the civil service
law is taking no active steps for the
pre- sent, the purpose being to wait until
the regular civil service committee of
the house takes action on the bill before
it proposes modification of the law.
