NEVER MET HER HERO.
New Story Of Blanche Wills Howard.
Writer II Q Kindly Novelist.


The original of Blanche Willis Howard
"MarigoId Michael" the leading story In
her book OF short tales, is the Englishman,
Edward Carpenter, one Of the best known
writer's on socialism Of the day. Miss
Howard admires him extremely, as one
may see from the story, and has GORE
sponded with him for several years. Re-
markedly enough, they have never met
for Miss Howard, or, as she is known to
her friends, the Baroness Won Teuffel,
spends the greater part Of her time In
France and Germany, and Mr.. Carpenter
rarely leaves his home in an English shire,
even to go to London. Recently, however,
while the baroness was stopping with her
dear friend, Alice Meynell, the charming
English poet, meeting was arranged be-
tween the two old correspondents, which
Mr.. Carpenter was coming. to London to
bring about. 1t would DO interesting to
know how he really impresses Miss How
ard, for Michael is wholly ideal concep-
ton.
kindly acts which the world never hears Of,
and, more than ever since she became
widow, more than two years ago, she has
devoted herself to trying to tighten other
folks lives. For many months after the
death of her husband she was entirely
crushed-so much SO that she took no in
terest In anything and for more than a
year did not put pen to paper-but her in
terooufse with those whom she had be-
frended gradually brought back her in
terest in life and tho desire to write again.
Last winter, while staying with Mrs.
Meynell, one Of the children, Miss How
ards godson, was sent to the hospital to
undergo an operation for his eyes, which
broken at the thought Of leaving home,
and his godmOther's promise that she
would come at II every morning to read
to him for an hour did much toward paci-
flying him. The promise was faithfully |
kept, and after few days Miss Howard
noticed that the patients In other cots were
oraning their necks to hear, too, and 1t
ended by her moving her chair into the
middle Of the room and reading to them
all. So interested did she become in her
hour that when the boy was sent home she
continued to go daily to the hospital and
read to the other patients and made it a
duty that was one of her great pleasures
all during the winter.
1t Is several years since Miss Howard
has been to America, and she and her hus-
band were coming together the spring that
he SO Unexpectedly died. Lately, for tho
first time since then, she has spoken again
Of coming, and Ii Is probable that she will
come over again next fall.-New York

Captain Tom Maher is ono of the most
original as well as ono of the best doteot-
ives tho city ever had. A few years ago
he was detailed to watch store that it
was said was going to be robbed. He So
cretod himself inside, and when the thief
broke in and helped himself to a lot of
clothing tho detective quietly reached out
from his hiding place and put chalk
mark OH the mans back. Then be per-
united him to depart and followed him
homo. Afterward ho made tho arrest with
out any trouble and presented his man in
court. The plea of the defense was that
the officer had no means of Identifying his
man, as tho night was very dark.
"Oh, yes, have" said Captain Maher.
Look on that man S coat now, and you
will find tho chalk mark I made there
when he was In tho store"
An examination was made and there
was the mark 1t was sufficient to send
tho man to the penitentiary. Louisville

Bull Campaign In Wall Street.

New York, April 30.--The bull cam.
paign inaugurated Thursday was con-
tinued with aggressive vigor yester-
day in the stock market, and prices
were lifted from one to nearly four points
throughout the active list. The sharp
advance did not bring out any large
amount of offers to realize, but there
was some profit taking, apparently by
small traders, in the late dealings,
which clipped off the extreme gains for
the day. 1t was notable, however,
throughout the day that any marked
reaction in prices Immediately led to
a cessation of offerings, and the mar
ket fell into intense dullness.

FINANCE AND TRADE,
War Has Little or No Effect Upon
Trade Distribution,

Trade Distribution.
New York, April 30.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade says:
Hostilities have not as yet changed
last weeks conditions. There Is much
postponement of orders by men who
do not know what they are waiting for
and much restriction of loans by banks
which are abundantly strong. All this
checks new business, and yet the vol
ume Of transactions through clearing
houses is larger than in the same week
in 1892, with no foreign trouble. But
this increase would be much larger but
for speculative stagnation here.
Confusing accounts about the great
industries cannot cause surprise in
view of the contradictory influence of
monetary stringency curtailing many
orders, heavy orders by the govern
ment in many branches and all per-
vading confidence that after temporary
conditions have passed business is 60
ing to be better. Banking caution, at
the same time, is stopping work in
some iron and wooden mills. Yet con-
fdence as to the future causes the re-
fusal Of very many contracts for long
time. the holding of wool above its
current manufacturing value, and a
marked rise In hides.
Bradstreet's review says: The lack
Of excitement. nervousness or inter-
ruption to the orderly conduct Of pub
lie affairs, and particularly business
operations, with which this country
passed from peace to war seems likely
to become historical. The temper with
which the country has recognized the
outbreak OF hostilities is not only proof
that the dullness and depression Of the
past six weeks have largely discounted
the effects usually witnessed. but fur
nishes valuable index to the general
point Of view taken by the business
community as to the outcome OF the
pending war. Little or no effect upon
general trade distribution of an un-
favorable character is perceptible in
the reports of the past week.
