MORNING. APRIL Is. 1885,
TWO LOVES.

The woman he loved while he dreamed Of her
Danced on till the stars grew dim,
But alone with her heart, from the world apart,
Sat the woman who loved him.
The woman he worshiped only smiled
When he poured out his passionate love.
While the other somewhere kissed her treasure
most rare,
book he had touched with his glove.
The woman he loved betrayed his trust.
And he wore the scars through life,
And he cared not nor knew that the other was
true.
But no man called her wife.
Tho woman he loved trod tested halls
While they sang his funeral hymn,
But the sad bells tolled ere the year was old
Der the woman who loved him.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

Washington, d. c.. June 9.-(Spccial.l
Senator Pritchard and CongresSmen
Pearson. Kitchen. and Skinner are not
satisfied with the tax on tobacco. They
worked industriously to eliminate the
retroactive clause contained in the War
Revenue bill as it passed the House and
as amended III the Senate. They were
successful but Chairman Dingley would
not consent and the confereeS compro-
missed by relieving those whose stock on
hand was less than one thousand pounds.
This will let out the small dealers who
would have been driven out Of business
had the original House provision pre-
vailed. Where the stock on hand OK
cecdS one thousand pounds or twenty
thousand cigars one-half the increased
tax Will be collected. Under the cir
cumstances this is a victory for the
North Carolina delegation who have
worked day and night to protect the
tobacco interests of the Tar Heel State.
