MRS. CARLYLE'S TRAITS.
How She Was Suspected of Shop Lifting on
 One Occasion.
From the New York Independent.

From the New York Independent.
 The brightest time for Mrs. Carlyle's talk was during dinner. Day after day she poured forth witty stories, most of which I have almost forgitten; but in any case, it would be dissertation to attempt to repeat almost any of them. The char acteristics of living men and women were often dashed off fin a few pithy words. not without satirical touches. George Henry Lewes was not one of her favorites; but I noted with pleasure the way in which she spoke of the wonderful transformation eff fected by the influence on him of George Eliot.
 One of her experiences was when visiting shoemaker's shop to make purchase. at the time when sandaled shoes were worn, like those represented in the orig inai illustrations of Dickens. The san-. dais were of black ribbon, uncut until the shoes were worn by the purchaser at home. Mrs Carlyle tried on many shoes. and each time that a. shoe proved unsuitable. she unconsoiously slung it on to her left arm. Being at last suited, and, having paid her bill. she left the shop, and had walked q little way when she heard q
The age-herald., 1898-02-20

shout behind her. Looking back, she saw the shopman running after her, much ex- cited, and insisting on her returning the stolen shoes. Looking down she saw. td her surprise, a number of shoes dangling from her arm. The man indignantly asked her name and address. Her astonishment was such that her name was obliterated for the time from her memory, and all she could recollect was her maiden name Miss Welsh" The humor in this tale was enhanced to those who knew her. from It's being so much out of keeping with her usual shrewdness and self-possession, that no one could have predicted it of her.
 Her death scene, a year later, when "Mr. Sylvester" as she named her coach- man, during drive, turned and looked into the carriage-surprised at receiving no orders as to route-and saw her sitting, lifeless, with a pet dog on her knee, has often risen to my thoughts since that pleasant week in her society.
 My strongest impression was of the deep mutual love evidently subsisting between Mrs. Carlyle and her husband. Every subject we discussed seemed to recall thought of him. If the piano were opened his song of the "blue day. was referred to, or asked for; if any literary man were mentioned, his opinion of him was given or story was told showing his relation to other men of note. felt as If listening to the love talk of youthful engaged couple, and, when, in later days, Froud6 opened up foodgate of misunderstand- ing, felt assured there was radical misconception of the true state of affairs.

road,s and should, if possible, be kept on the highway, as a shower will convert it into binding material. Trees and hedges cost little, and money expended in this way will be offset by decreased repairs. This is 5Sply ia utilitarian side of the question. The attractiveness of the country is en- hanced by trees and shrubs. A farming country without shade is not inviting, and whatever improves the roads and adds to the beauty of rural scenery is worthy of encouhAgement. The suggestion is deserv- ing of consideration by town councils, be- cause it is suggestive of decreased cost In road maintenance and higher values of property. The city man looking for a summer home in the country is certain to note the difference between a farm bor- dered by trees and one that is barren of shade. It is not difficult to predict which will be his choice.

 To the inner ssanctum. of the temple only Masons will be admitted, and here some grand ceremonies will take place, sur rounded by all the pomp of the ritual in the presence of the highest dignitaries of the order. The parade itself will take place in Buffalo, which is peculiarly suited for such great shows, because of its as- zphalt pavements, a condition ch made the G. A. R. parade of. last summer a fine spectacle without distressing the men. President Mckinley, who will soon be in- itiated into the Shriners at Washington, will probably attend the celebration here, as he Is to open the exposition, for which he broke ground last August.
 It is estimated by the Pan-American di- rectors that 300000 Masons will come to the Niagara frontier to witness these inn posing ceremonies and to be part of the great gathering From Canada, Mexico Argentine Republic, Chilli, Brazil, Peru, Uruguay, Venezuela, Guatemala, Ecuador and the United States of Columbia come assurances that the Masons everywhere will lend their support to the project to show the strength and representativeness of the order throughout the whole West ern Hemisphere.
 Such conclave was planned in connec- tion with the worlds fair at Chicago, and again at the Atlanta exposition, but at neither time was it taken up soon enough to be worked out successfully
 The directors of the Pan-American ex- position gave the contract last week for the main building. which is to cost $70O,- GOO, but splendid site has been reserved for the Masonic Temple, on the bank of the Niagara, facing Cayuga Island. This Is within the fair grounds, which will be as large as the Chicago site. The temple may be built overlooking the river or on the island, as the Masons prefer. The ex- position management wants his conclave, and is prepared to deal literally with the temple project.

What quality do you think the greatest In George Washington?
 He was first in peace, first in war, first in the hearts of his countrymen! But why?
 Was he greatest as a patriot? Or did he excel in war? Was his wisdom super-hu- man, or has it been the record of his kind qualities that has come down to us and made him so dear?
 This is what few of the present-day statesmen have to say of him:
