She was dark-cheeked, diamond
eyed girl of is, with braids of blue
black hair coiled around the back OF
her small Greek-shaped head, and a
color as rich and yelvety as the side
of a July peach
"Humpa!" said Aunt Sara, 1--WE

For shame, Aunt Sara" cried
Ethel, coloring up to her eyelashes

Now, this Aunt Sara of our little
Ethel was no specialized spinster of an
uncertain age nor portly, pillow-shap-
ed widow with the photograph of her
dear, departed husband worn, locket-
shaped, upon her bosom-but a pretty
young woman of four or fiye-and-
twenty with bright blue eyes and
hair all streaked with golden CLEANS,
who was engaged in the congenial oc-
cupation of making up her wedding
clothes.
AN agreeable companion, of course, "
said Aunt Sara. Look, Ethel, do you
think white Maltese lace or French
blonde, with a heading OF Roman
pearls, would be prettiest for this
berthe?"
Aunt Sara knew when to drop a sub
ject and when to hold on to it. But
while Ethel was stitching the quilt
ing Of French blonde on to the white
silk dress her young aunt's mind was
busy upon the topic she had appar-

THE WEAVER.

Beside the loom of life l stand
And watch the busy shuttle go.
The threads | hold within my hand
Make up the filling, strand on strand,
They slip my fingers through, and so
This web Of mine fills out apace,
While stand ever in my place.
One time the wool is smooth and fine
And colored with a sunny dye:
Again the threads so roughly Irvine
And weave so darkly line On line
My heart misgives me- Then would |
Fain lose this web-begin anew
But that, alas! can not do.
Some day the web will all be done,
The SHUTTLE quiet in its place,
From out my hold the threads be run
And friends at setting of the sun

Yet wove perchance as best she

P|NGRE DEFENDS ALCER.
Michigan's Governor Accuses Pres,
ident Mckinley Of Cowardice In
Dealing With the Secretary.
BOLD STATEMENTS BY the GOVERNOR.
Gen. Aiger's Sacrifice Caused by the de-
nands Of New York Politicians and the
secrstary's Prank Declaration of Oppo-
sition to Trusts Michigan People Called
Upon 60 Protest Against the Injustice.

Detroit, Mich, July 22.-Gov. PIN
gree gave To the Associated press pre-
pared, signed interview to-day contain.
ing what the governor asserts to he
facts which are absolutely reliable,
bearing upon the relations between
Gen. hlgcr and President Mckinley,
with which the public Is not familiar. -"
At the outset the governor says: II have
no hesitation In saying that the course
pursued by the presidents in this matter
Is little less than cowardly. IL Is, To
say the least, very unmanly." Gov. PIN
gree said his information did not come
from Gen. Algcr, but from zone whose
knowledge Of the facts cannot he dis
putcd." Proceeding, he says that re-
pcatcdly since the eastern newspapers
began their attack upon Secretary Al
ger the secretary informed the prcsi-
dent that II these press comments en-
bnrrasscd the administration In the
slightest degree he would resign at
once, but the president as often protest
ed cmphatically that he had the ut
most confidence In Secretary Algcr
and his conduct of the war department,
and that the country could not afford
to lose his services. The governor
says that at the time his "allegcd alli-
ance" with Gen. Algcr was announced
and before his disavowal of interviews
criticising the president had reached
Washington, Gcn. Algcr had told the
president that upon the presidents
intimation he would resign,
but the president refused to entertain
the idea for a moment.
Gov. Pingrcc states that Mr.. Hobart
was finally prevailed upon by Attorney
General Griggs to convey TO the sccrc.
tary that his resignation was desired.
'nnd gave my alleged alliance with the
secretary as n prctext." Commenting
upon the whole matter the governor
says that Gen. Alger's sacrifice" was
compelled by the demands Of New
York politicians, backed by the "un-
scrupulous and heartlcss press.
He predicts that IL will be
learned that the president himself
has been responsible for whatever mis-
takes have been made in conducting
the war" lie adds: II am told upon
the very best authority that Gen. Alger
made very few appointments OF officers
during the war and that the commits
sions were ISSUED almost entirely upon
the orders of the president"
The governor alleges that the more
recent attacks upon Algcr in the east
were caused by his frank declaration of
opposition To trusts, and he adds.
there is n decided odor Of trusts
around the present administration,
with Mark Hanna as the acknowledged
king MAKER" In conclusion the gov
crnor calls upon Michigan people and
newspapers To protest against the in.
justice done the states foremost rep.
rcsentativc in public life.
