Patriotic

These words come from Gen.
Wheeler, a confederate general, q
democrat, but no copperhead:
patriotic devotion can be exercised
by volunteering to serve in the field,
but it may also be most profitably ex-
erted in encouraging confidence
among our peoples at home. Certainly
no good and only evil can come from
words which tell rival nations that
even a portion OF our people, how
ever few, are not in full sympathy
with our government, or what is
worse, that eny Americans actually
do sympathize with our country's
enemies. Such a course cannot fail
to weaken confidence and embarass
the executive power. Those who in
slst that the power OF the United
States is so great that it must al
ways triumph will admit that diff
culties or obstacles created by some
OF own people will have the effect OF
retarding at leastin some degree. the
prompt and happy restoration to
perfect and lasting peace"

The Argus-Leader furnishes this
graphic and interesting description
ofCol. Henderson. "David Bremmer
Henderson was born in Scotland 50
years ago, and if elected speaker will
be the first man OF alien birth to hold
that place, as also he will be the
first man West of the Mississippi
river to become the Speaker. Hen
derson came to the United States
with his parents when he was six
years old, and he has lived in Iowa
since he was 10. Hegraduated from
an Iowa school, married an Iowa
girl, fought in an Iowa regiment

ceiyed q wound which resulted in the
loss of his right leg, which has been
replaced with wooden one. This is
used so skillfully by the Colonel that
few would notice his defect But his
experience as a soldier has ma1e him

to criticise President Harrison for
ignoring colored citizens in appoint
ing the Worlds Fair Commission,
nor to praise President Cleveland for
sending Federal troops to Chicago
at the time OF the railway riots. On
good terms with Speaker Reed, he
did not hesitate to take issue with
the man from Maine on his rulings,
and to take it in such way as to
prove his sincerity and ability. A
lawyer by education, statesman
by training, true Westerner by life

WASHED BY ROYALTY.
On Mnundy Thursday Emperor Fran
els Joseph Washes the Feet
of Twelve Men.

On the evening before His death
Christ washed the feet of His disciples
in order that through this symbolic
example they might learn humility,
and a similar ceremony was for long
time practiced by the members OF the
Roman Catholic, Greek and other
churches. The popes have always APP
proved of the custom, and among the
rulers who have observed it most
faithfully have been the kings of Ba-
varia and the emperors of Austria.
Now in all Europe there is no more
faithful son of the church than En-
peror Francis Joseph, and it is no Won
der, therefore, that he should adhere
to this world-old custom.
In olden times the wives of the rulers
took part in the ceremony. Emperors
and kings washed the feet of men
and expresses and queens washed the
feet of old women. For several years,
however, Francis Joseph has acted
alone. And striking, indeed, is this
ceremony in which he takes the leading
part. Twelve poor old men are select
ed for the honor, and early on Maundy
Thursday they are brought from their
homes in court carriages by court ofll-
Gals, and are taken to the palace,
where they are appropriately clothed in
pilgrims robes.
Meanwhile in the great reception
room of the palace are assembled the
members of the court, the diplomatic
corps and many distinguished state,
military and naval officers, as well as
representatives of the Niennese burgh-
ers and working classes. The apostles
as the - old men are styled, are seated
in a row on a raised platform, and
court attendants then remove their
shoes and stockings A fitting religious
service is being performed meanwhile,
and as it is drawing to a close the en-
peror approaches the apostles" and
does for them what Jesus did for HIS
disciples nineteen hundred years ago
in Galilee.
The word washing" however, must
not be taken in it's literal sense. The
emperor takes from n golden basin,
presented to him by chamberlain, a
! few drops of water, which he sprinkles
on the feet of each apostle and then
wipes off. The performance, which is
all done within a quarter of an hour,
produces a deep impression on the be-
holders owing to its simplicity and SYM
bolic significance.
So far as the apostles" however,
are concerned, the most satisfactory
part of the performance does not be-
| gin until after the emperor has re-
tired. They are then taken in court
carriages to their poor abodes, where,
with their relatives and friends, they
entertain themselves with a supply of
excellent food, which has been fur
nished by the emperor. A well-filled
purse is also given to each of them
as sort of compensation for the eN-
element and labor attendant on the
foot washing, which is in the case OF
the majority of these poor old men the
! last notable event in their anxious lives.

THE PLAYHOUSE.
III a house al all. YOU see.

II wasn't house at all. you see,
But only a big, fiat stone;
Yet they called it a house, did the sisters
three,
And each was as glad as queen might be
A queen on a golden throne.
And one was like lily fair
And one was like a rose;
And one had stolen happy share
OF blended grace from the other pair;
And all were lovely beyond compare
My queens of the long agoes.
The house was close by the garden gate,
And under the apple trees,
In whose broad branches, early and late.
The robin sang TO his happy mate
AS a 1.-THE limb feeling his happy weight,
Swung low in the summer breeze.
And many a golden afternoon
The sisters chatted there,
With hearts as glad as the skies of June.
With hearts as soft as mothers Groom.
With hearts that withered and all too soon
With a grief they could not bear.
l wandered far in the paths of men,
| fingered long and late
To win the golden prize, and then
] set my heart for the "home" again,
But the world seemed changed and cheer
less when
l stood by the garden gate.
In woe sat me down to weep.
For my heart was sad and lone,
And my gold seemed all so poor and cheap
There was little left cared to keep,
And | wished l were wrapped in dream
less sleep
And under the big, fiat stone.
