THEY ARE NOT LOST

mn RiNfs NOl lJpS
The look Of sympathy. the gentle word
Spoken so low that only angels heard;
The secret act OF pure selfsacrihce.
Unseen by men. but marked by angels eyes
These are not lost.
When dreams hal less Of self and more OF truth;
The Ghildhood's faith so tranquil and so sweet.
Which sat Ike Mary at the Masters feet
These are not lost.
The kindly plan devised for others good.
So seldom guessed. so little understood:
The quiet. .steadfast love that strove TO win
Some wanderer from the ways OF sin
These are not lost.
Not lost. o Lord! for in Thy city bright
our eyes shall see the past by clearer light:
And things long hidden from our gaze below
Thou wilt reveal. and we shall surely know
These are not lost.

a Substitute for n hell.

When Bismarck was Prussian am
bassador at Frankfort an interesting
incident occurred to him. At that mo-
ment he lodged in the house of a mer-
chant who detested the Prussians.
Bismarck asked the landlord to put a
bell in his room. The latter replied
that it was not in the lease, and that
if Bismarck wanted one he would have
to put it up himself A few days after
the whole house was suddenly aroused
by pistol shot fired in the room. The
landlord rushed to the apartment out
of breath and found the ambassador
quietly smoking large pipe seated in
front of pile of documents. On the
table was the pistol which he had just
fired. "In the name of goodness"
cried the landlord, what has hap
pened?" "Oh, nothing" replied Bis
marck; don't be alarmed. l have
simply called my servant to come and
speak to me. 1t is quite an inoffensive
signal, to which you would do well to
get accustomed for | shall no doubt
make use of it more than once" The
landlord took the hint, and Bismarck
got his bell.-London Globe.

FLED WITH "CAUTIONS-G GELD. -
can Girl, the Fiancee of "a Ger
man Army Official.

Various stories of the marriages of
German officers and American girls
that reach this country have placed
such unions in an unfortunate light,
but the recent experiences of a New
York girl have caused her friends here
to congratulate her on an escape
which, embarrassing as it was at
first, has doubtless proved the most
fortunate event of the situation. She
was living in a German city that con-
tains the largest American colony in
Germany. and she became engaged to
lieutenant in one of the Prussian
regiments stationed there.
He was of an old German family and
the prospect of his marriage to the
girl was regarded with great favor by
his family as well as her own. The en-
gagement was announced after a long
courtship, and no similar alliance ever
promised to result more satisfactorily.
Every preliminary to the marriage,
which was to take place in Europe,
had been arranged. All that remained
was the payment to the administra-
ton of the army of "cautions-geld,"
the sum demanded by the army in or
der that the officers family may not
becomea charge upon the government.
When German officers marry Ameri-
cans this sum is paid by the brides
family, and the present case formedno
exception to that well-established
rule. The check for the sum, which
had been deposited in Berlin bank,
was handed to the expectant BRIDE
groom few weeks before the date
fixed for the marriage. His mother-in-
law elect gave It to him. A few hours
later he left his betrothed, and from
that time neither she nor any of her
family has ever laid eyes on him. In
vestigation showed that he had got the
money before he went out of Germany,
leaving his family. his regiment, and
everything but the money, which in
this case amounted to $4,000. Moth
ing was ever heard from him, and the
friends of the young woman continued
their congratulations to her, although
not just in the same spirit they were
begun.
The young woman in the case
promptly put an end to all efforts to
find the lieutenant. She was quite as
charming and attractive as the ma
jority of girls who marry German of
ficers, but the man was an exception
to the rule even of those officers who
talk of the possibility of "reiche
Amerikaenerin' as wife in a way
that makes it difficult for the average
American to control himself.-N. Y.

HOW DEVIL ANSE WIS FOOLED
Two Detectives Who Knew How to
Win Old Man HatfieId's
Hospitality

when went with surveying party
into the Tug river country, in West Vir7
ginia, several years ago, there were
doubts as to whether the natives
would let us stay" said F. c. Albright,
a civil engineer. ''In general il was
taken for granted by the mountain
GERS that any stranger who crossed
the dead line, where the mountain
district begins, was an enemy, i rev
enue officer or sheriff, whom ii was
their duty to pot for the pubic safety.
But shortly before our coming the
United States marshals had made some
impression on the district, and in
spired a respect for government. The
mountaineers regarded our surveys
and railroad building as part of the
government, and accordingly did not
modest us.
"All are hospitable, and, like the
Arab, the mountaineer regards the
stranger who las eaten his salt as be-
ing under his protection. This brings
me to a story of Devil Anse Hatfield
and two of our railroad detectives.
Devil Anse, as you pY0Dt * have
heard, is the patriarch and leatler of
the Hatfield clan He lives in his for
titled house on Island creek, with six
or seven armed men always there as
guard. Somehow the two detectives
had got the i'll will of the Hatfields,
and an ambush was laid for them. The
detectives got wind of it. They knew
the country and the people, and de-
cided on the only thing they could do
Leaving the road they made detour
behind the men in ambush, and rode
straight to the house of Devil Anse
Hatfield. As luck would have it the
old man was away, perhaps superin-
tending the ambush, and they got to
the house and within the door without
being fired at. They set their rifles in
a corner, hung their belts and pistols
against the wall, sat down, and asked
for something to eat. When Devil Anse
came back the women had fed the de-
tectives, and as they had eaten bread
beneath his roof there was nothing for
the old man to do but play host with
the best grace he could show. He
made the best of the matter, gave the
men the best supper and breakfast
that the house afforded and fed their
horses. The next morning he sent
them with a guide by an out-of-the-
way path out of the country,
" He'll see you safe said Devil Anse
at parting. If you took the main trail
you'd likely meet some of my folks,
and l reckon they'd turn their guns
loose without stopping to ask where
you've BEEN Chicago Inter Ocean.

according to John Fox, Jr., in his let

the men who were seriously injured,

1t was only after weeks of delirium
that 1 came to myself and found Dora
sitting beside me in my own attic in
Wandsworth, and it was from her that
learned the manner of my escape.
My absence, it appears, was not no.
ticed for the first threedays, and was
supposed to be in the country.
Then Peel got alarmed, and he and
the others held a consultation. Two
more days passed, and at last Dora's
suspicious were aroused by strange
ness in Kovno's manner-somethin
furtive, but at the same time triumph
ant. A chance overseeing of port
folio confirmed their suspicious, as
among the sketches were those of me
as lay bound in the darkness.
A search was organized, and at last
I was found behind a whole pile of
lumber and studio refuse in an old eel
lar under the building in which the
sculptor, the original tenant, used to
keep his store of modelling clay.
Poor Kovno became dangerously vio-
lent on his return. for he had been abb
sent when the search was made. He
was taken to an infirmary, and thence
to an asylum. The doctors say that It
is only temporary insanity; but then
they never have seen his eyes gleam-
ing through the darkness as I saw
them in that loathsome hole, and as
sometimes fancy I see them STILL
