The balm of spring is in the air
And vernal signs are everywhere,
The russet sparrow stands and trills
A madrigal upon the street,
The brave policeman s bosom thrills
As he parades upon his beat,
Inhaling, with joy intense,
An atmosphere Of Incidence.
The doorbell bangles in the hall.
1t is the tax collector s call,
And IN the papers there are signs
That voting days are drswing nigh
And party artists DRAWN lines.
The spring seems here, i'd yet we sigh,
With tearful eye and chol lg throat.
We have no new spring cYsrcoati

The Little Boy King.

The little 10y king is a handsome fellow,
With his curling hair and his sash of yellow,
And he knows that America won't do a thing

The little boy king is warlike chap,
With his clanlxing sword and his shoulder strap
And he shakes his rattle and makes it ring,
For nobody II trouble little boy king
But, little boy king, you had better watch outi

That suits her bonny face.
She has a fine cyclometer,
A lantern that's an fait,

A woman who suffers from weakness and
disease of the distinctly feminine organs,
who is racked with pain, and tortured with
headaches and nervousness, cannot be &C

are the natural results of suffering of this
description. The poor invalid woman is
not at fault save in her ignorance of her

Thousands of women are neglectful in
this way because they shrink from the en-

A GLOWING TRIBUTE.

Gladstone the Subject of Rev. Heber
Newton's Sermon.
New York. May 23.-The Rev. DR.. Heber
Newton preached an interesting sermon
on the life of Mr.. Gladstone at All Souls
Protestant Episcopal church. He said in
part:
st is as a statesman that Mr.. Glad
stone is known throughout the world
and honored wherever he IL known. For
60 years he has been In public life and OBJ
served of all observers. This long career
in public life earned a growing recogni-
ton. not merely of his ability, but of his
character. Mr.. Gladstone was a states
man. not a politician. He had very little
aptitude in managing men. His influence
over his followers was the influence OF his
personality. Many men inferior to him
surpassed him In their ability to manage
their party. He surpassed all his contem-
poraries and was without a predecessor
in English history in his ability to i'm
press upon a party his own great ideas
and convictions. His power lay in his
thoughts and in his beliefs.
TO begin at the beginning. he was alb
so,utely disinterested, pecuniarily, in his
public life. He was not in politics for
money. He was never rich. When he was
at one time prime minister he declined TO
consent to an increase of salary. On leav-
ing Office finally he made no attempt to
secure a pension. He was nobly above the
sordid conditions of public life, which
mesh and enslave so many OF our public
men.
ITO him Office was a public trust. and
not a private perquisite. Its power to
him was something far greater than a de-
sire to create patronage. 1t was an OPP
%portunity of serving man. in the promo
ton of better conditions of life, of nobler
laws and loftier institutions. He desired
popularity and had 1t in a measure AL
most ~unequalled in English history.
I'm him we had a statesman who lit
orally tried to administer the governments
according to the ethics of Jesus Christ.
He was in truth the nearest counterpart
which our modern world has known of
the old Hebrew people. When such a man
comes to us from God the people should
proclaim him king, not by right of pri-
mogeniture. but by the calling and ordi-
nation of the Most High"

that the court could not take this error

ment and some criticism has been
caused by the delay in forwarding

and criticism had their origin
In the desire OF the people. that the
fruits of Dewey's victory at Manila
should not be endangered by n lack
of assistance from the navy or the war
department. -.
IL is known now thai troops would
have been sent TO Manila before this
had 1t beer possible for the war depart
ment TO secure transports on the Pa
cifc coast. The utmost difficulty Is be-
ing experienced by the department in
obtaining such transports. The coast
wise trade on the Pacific is not large.
as compared with that on the Atlantic,
and a majority of the vessels engaged
in M trade are OF foreign register. OF
course ships flying d foreign flag can
not be used as transports by the gov

Count Almenas protested against the
alleged action Of some American war
ships in displaying the Spanish flag in
order to deceive the garrison OF
Guantanamo, as announced on Satur-
day last in a dispatch from Captain
General Bianco, who added that the
American ships were recognized n
repulsed." The count asked IL the gov
eminent has not notified the powers OF
this Incident.
The minister Of the interior, Senior
Capdepon, replied that he had notified
the powers and described this report
cd action as 'cowardly and iniqui-
tous."
Count Almenas said that in view of
Americas of making war,
Spain must Immediately decree pri-
watering in order to utterly destroy
American shipping" To this the min
lister Of the Interior replied that the
government had deliberated upon the
matter and had "even taken certain
decisions which would soon be known"
Count Guandolon said the American
acts OF piracy were admitted by the
crists on international law. Senor
Pacheco remarked that 1t was doubtful
whether such an act was legal.
But" he added. 'in the face OF
Americas conduct in the war with
Spain. we must not show considera-
ton for them" Continuing. the speak
