TRUE TO HIS FIRST LOVE.
The Story of a Man Who Kept Hang
ing In His Room the Picture
of an Old Sweetheart.
From the New York Times.

From the New York Times.
The heroine of the tale. who was young
some twenty years or more ago, was the
daughter of a wealthy man who desired
her, true story-book fashion to make a
brilliant marriage. The daughter. equally
in story-book fashion. had given her heart
to a poor but worthy young man. and the
father refused to give his consent to their
union. The daughter would not marry the
man against her fathers will. but promised
her lover that she would at least marry no
one else. Time passed. and at intervals
the young man renewed his suit, but al
ways received the same answer; the girl
loved him. but she would not marry with
out her fathers consent and leave him
alone.
In the meantime the man had gone to
Canada and made some money. He was
still faithful to his old love, and after ac-
quiring 4 considerable fortune he returned
Yet again to urge his lady love to go back
with him, but without avail. Finally there
growing old: he felt that he needed a
home. He declared his love again. but
said that if Ills old sweetheart would not
marry him now he must marry another
woman. Again he was refused and this
time he married.
BY correspondence the wife and the old
love were made acquainted. and became
on paper very good friends. Then the wom-
an in America felt desire to visit her
one-time lover and made the trip TO Can
ada and was warmly welcomed. The house
was attractive. and everything about it
pleasant, but what was the surprise of the
visitor to see hanging in conspicuous
place on the walls of one of the principal
rooms, her own portrait.

QUEBEC, Aug. 21.-The first session of
the United States and Great Britain joint
high commission will be held in the par

noon. A aiority of the commissioners are
now here, but they do not expect to do
more than take a general survey of the
work and appoint subcommittee at the
first two sessions. The meeting of the COM
mission will not be open to the public.
1t Is ponderous and perpiexing task

And so far as We are concerted" said
Senator Fairbanks, we shall meet them
half way"
What disposition will finally be made of
the Results of the commissions work." was
asked.
Our findings" he said, will be submit
ted IN the form of a treaty for the approval
or the senate of the United States and of
Great Britain"
1t is impossible to state how long the
commission probably will sit. The United
STATES and Canadian members have
brought with them an extensive equipment
OF books, documents and maps. Many OF
the maps will be brought into use In con-
sidering the Alaskan boundaries, which,
excepting probably the sealing and COM
mercial matters, will be the most difficult
questions before the commission.
That the work is.to be very important and
very difficult is indicated in the fact that
the commission is to take up those very
questions which the United States and
Canada have not been able to settle in the
past decade. But now, in the opinion of
Senator Fairbanks. on the part of En-
gland and Canada, there seems to be a dis
position to have all these questions salts
factorily adjusted.

Conductivity of Lightning Rod,

Some interesting experiments bearing on
the conductivity of lightning conductors
have been made by Professor Koch, as
reported in Industries and Iron. He
formed a chain several yards long with
links of iron oxide, and placed it in circuit
with two accumulation cells and a galvan-
ometer the chain being in room thirty
yards from the galvanometer. When a
spark was discharged in the vicinity of
the chain. the deviation of the galvanome-
ter showed that the resistance of the cir
cult was reduced TO one-thousandth of its
normal value, and in a second experiment
the resistance fell to one-ten-thousandth
Of the normal. From these experiments
Professor Koch finds an explanation why
lightning conductors with poor conductiv-
ity are nevertheless effective in thunder
storms The oscillations produced provoke
an enormous reduction OF resistance at
the proper instant to facilitate the flow
of current through the conductor.
