Her borrowed PIumare

A Syracuse woman was in Boston some
time ago, and she had occasion to get n
check cashed, being without ready money
says the Syracuse Post. She had no
friend who was easily available. but she
went to bank and presented her check
OF course, she was told she would have
to be identified. The cashier of the hank
suggested that she might have one of her
cards. She took out her card case but
the card she produced proved to be that
of one of her friends. This caused her
a good deal of confusion but the accom-.
modating cashier suggested that she might
prove her identity by the initials on her
card case. But these, alas, proved to be
those Of her mother. Her confusion con-
tinued to increase until she thought of
the initials on her handkerchief The
marked article was produced TO be mt
in evidence, but when it was examined n
was found to bear the initials of another
friend. She was thwarted in ever direc-
ton, but the cashier was easy" Roston
cashiers are apparently not as strict az
those in this part of the country. For this
particular one said he guessed that n
was all right, and he cashed the check

The OLD Spring.

A dream of woodland beauty,
A dream of sylvan shade;
The tall trees hoy'ring over
And messy reaches laid;
The scent of bud and blossom,
The blue sky glittering
Through glossy leaves the forest caves,
Above the dear old spring.
Around the laughing edges
The watercresses grow; Is
And here and there the violets,
Blue-eyed and brave, do show
Their lovely dew-kissed faces
To breezes wandering
Once more 1 hear, so sweet and clear,
The music of that spring.
Once more upon the pathway
By boyish footsteps trod,
And kneel in swift endeavor
Upon the pulsing sod;
Sunburned and free and happy
The torn straw hat I fling
Aside with laugh and bend to quaff
The nectar of that spring.
1t gives me merry welcome
And cools my hot, tired face,
And all the while is singing
With rapt and wondrous grace.
Sweet songs of light and loving,
Sucn as the angels sing
Loves charity and mystery
Lie in the dear old spring.
There's naught about it narrow,
Its bliss is free to all;
And bird and bee are pilgrims
To where its waters fall.
1t hears the rabbits patter
The gray squirrels chattering
And holds its cup of loving up
To all-this grand old spring.
And here's the perfect lesson
1t holds to you and me:
That in our deeds of mercy
No question e'er should be;
But wide and all-embracing
The helpful notes should ring
A boon to all who hear the call,
AS was that dear old spring.

He Reckoncd without His Host.

Wethersby had dropped in to the matinee
to see the comedy, says the Detroit Free
Press. He was seated alongside of a
pretty little 5-year-old who, like many be-
quilting innocents of that age, take ad-
vantage of paucity of birthdays to make
the acquaintance of a good-looking young
man, or anyone else who happens to suit
their fancy, without the formahty of an
introduction. Wethersby usually found
himself fearfully tangled after an attempt
to mix up with an infantile conversation,
but the violet blue that peeped out from
under the beautiful dashed canopies and
the innocent smiles that were Iavished on
him inveigled him again.
I'm going to see my gran'pa after
while" said the little miss, with the char
acteristc bluntness that children usually
employ to open up conversation.
"Oh. you are, are you?" said Wethers-
by with startling originality, and trying
to make his remarks commensurate with
infant understanding he added:
You like your grandpa, don't your"
Eyes, IKE him awful we'll; he tells me

well, you must always like your grand
pa said he, with a mock paternal air
Some day you'll be old yourself, you
know, and then you'll want little girls
to like you"
The little maid smiled a sweet. beguiling
SMILE and Wethersby felt that he was get
ting on famously
Docs your grandpa walk with a nice
gold-headed cane, and does he have long
white hair and whiskers

It is not surprising that Gen. Casslus
NJ. Clays attempt to wipe out the dispar-
ity between age and youth education and
ignorance, refinement and coarsenegs, in
his marriage with the little peasant girl"
should prove a lamentable failure. The
indications are that not only will the eff
fort end in a failure, but in tragedy.
The child whom the old man married was
not his equal in anything. After living
with him a while, she got tired of the
life for which she was not fitted by ances-
try or education, and left Gen. Clay's So
eiety to return TO her own level The in
eident goes to show that refinement by the
hot-house process Is not a good plan. and

Evidently the promoters of the Hawaiian
annexation scheme are afraid their plot
ting and working will not be productive
of a satisfactory result. Mr.. Dole, the
President of Hawaii, is coming to this
country to see if he cannot persuade the
recalcitrant senators that they are sacri-
ficing the interests of the United States
in refusing to vote to rahfy the treaty. Ii
Is not an easy matter to see what influ-
ence MIR. Dole can possibly have in WASH
ington. The telling of the story of the
overthrow of the Hawaiian government,
and the setting up of the oligarchical gov
eminent of which Mr.. Dole is the head,
can hardly help the cause of annexa-
ton.
1t may be that Mr.. Dole thinks that two
Presidents can do more in behalf of the
treaty than one. President Mckinley, 1t
is said, is showing extraordinary zeal in
favor of annexation. In all other matters
he is careful not to go beyond his party
The Republican party has taken no posi-
ton in respect to the annexation of Ha,
wall. The President, however. is very
pronounced in his views and he importunes
senators of his party to vote for the an
neXation treaty.
This anxiety of the President to have
the treaty ratified is causing a great deal
of talk. He has a right, of course, to
favor annexation and to ask senators to
vote for it, but his going beyond his party
in the matter is not understood Has he
decided TO be the leader OF his party in
stead of follower of it, and has he seized
upon the Hawaiian treaty to make known
his new departure? 1t may be that even
the coming of President Dole is due to an
urgent invitation from him.

is said, that society, and not Merry is
responsible for the crime, the lawyers
holding that the murderer is the creature
of circumstances and environments
which induced the killing, and that those
circumstances and environments were
occasioned by the social and industrial
status. 1t is to be hoped that no jury
would listen to any such far-fetched de-
Tense of a brutal murderer.
