THE FIRST KISS.

Sweetheart, twas but a while ago-i'
scarce seems yesterday,
Though now my locks are white al:
snow. and all your curls are gray
When walking in the twilight haze
ere stars had smiled above
l whispered soft: Il love you" and
you kissed me for that love!
The first kiss dear. and then your
hand--your little hand SO sweet,
And whittier than the white, white sane
that twinkled at your feet,
Laid tenderly within my own! Have
queens such lovely hands?
No wonder that the whippoor Wills
make sweet the autumn lands!
1t seemed to me that my poor heart
would beat to death and break,
While all the world-Sweetheart
Sweetheart! seemed singing fol
your sakel
And every rose that barred the way
in glad and dying grace,
Forgot its faded summer day and
leaning, kissed your faeei
] envied all the roses then and all the
rosy ways
That bossomed for your sake are still
my lfe's bright yesterdays.
But thinking of that first. sweet kiss
and that first clasp OF hands,
I.ife's whippoorwiIls sing sweeter now
through all the autumn lands!

OH thank you for the thought"
When it was settled, | began to see
to what a pretty complication | was
working, and, indeed, it seemed doubt
full whether my own reception would
be even courteous. The circumstances
! in which | met the lady would. OF

no reason to suppose my uncle either

from the first, to let him see where

she could not love me, SO there would
be no hearts broken. The probability
was that she disliked the prospect of
my visit as much as l did.
II was beautiful, clear evening,

in the long silence that fell between us

which we sped.
My companion, during all the time

any account OF the country-an omis-.

Presently we passed over the base OF a
noble hill, with white shining through
the green, and all astir, as it seemed
with little winds.

Dear lady" said, "it your home Is

Loneliness is the greatest foe wo-
man has TO fight.
Every field of labor seems more fer
tile than our own.
The hardest thing in the world is to
endeavor to be brilliant to order.
The fragrance of fresh flowers is the
nearest thing in nature TO caress.
The very thing that we wish to see
most in the newspapers is the item we
are apt to overlook.
The person most suspicious regarding
another's actions is generally the one
most in need of watching.
The longest day is generally the one
when you get ready in the morning for
something that doesn't occur until
night
1t isn't always the girl who wears the
biggest bunch of roses and yiolets to
the game who knows the most about
football.
There may be some people so inn
bued with anglomanla that they can
see something beautiful In a fog, but
their name is not legion.
The fragrance of flower or a long
forgotten strain of music has the power
to paint a mental picture for us that
we thought had faded into oblivion.

And mine" cried l, "is Nigel Gray,
your Cousin Nigel, very much at your
service and very much in love with
Cousin Audrey"
For a moment we gazed into each
others eyes in kind of transport, and
then, without more ado, | took the lit
tie lady in my arms and kissed her.
At first she tried to be a little prim
and coy, but, later, she sat upon my
knee, although the chaise was narrow,
and clasped her arms about my neck.
you dear, brave cousin!" she cried.
Am | so dreadful, and will you run
away again?"
Don't tease me, Nigel" she pleaded,
and laid her cheek against mine. She
was little more than a child, after all,
and my heart beat high and quick to
think from what, under Providence, l
had saved her that day.
What can I tell father?" she asked.
you only left home this morning."
Eyes, cousin"
Tell him that you ventured on to the
road to see this strange cousin OF
yours, and that he recognized you and
picked you up"
But that would be storyl"
We'll, l will tell it for you, If you
will forgive me afterward Do you
think you will ever love me, Audrey?"
Il love you already, Cousin Nigel"
Nigel without the cousin"
Nigel" she said.
And so, you see, the adventure ended
happily for both OF us, but l told my
Uncle Mortimer, privately. exactly
what had really occurred, in order that
we might be on guard against the man
Mortified. He, however, had had his
| lesson; and his wound, l suppose, not
proving serious, he hid the scar and
thought 1t best to keep a closed mouth.
Indeed, not long after he disappeared
from the country. and was heard OF
later on in America, where l trust he
was better appreciated than he ever
was here.
As for Audrey no sweeter woman
ever breathed than my wife, and she
has made up to me thousandfold for
| thinking SO lightly of me before she
| had ever seen my face. And for my
self though l have had many encoun-
ters since then and against heavier
| odds, none ever had so fair a reward.

SUSPECTED CASE or rIAaun.
Third Engineer of the Taylor Under
Close Ohservatfou.


New York. Dee 2-Heaith officer Doty
removed to swinburne Island to-day. for
observation Third Engineer Story of the
steamer ]. w. Taylor, from Santos.
Story has been under observation for the
past three or four days. This morning an
examination showed a small plmple on tho
little toe of his left foot, which was quite
painful There were no other general
symptoms, the mans temperature being
normal As q precautionary measure,
however, DR. Dolly decided to remove him
TO Swinburue Island for closer observa-
ton and bactorio.ogical examination.
This Is the only suspicious case since
the steamer arrived here on Nov. Is last.
The other members OF the crew are Welt.
The room occupied by this engineer on
board the steamer was thoroughly Glsin-
fected and cleaned to-day
President Murphy Of the Board Of Health
declared to-day that the Taylors coffee,
now on lighters, would not be allowed 60
come to the city under any consideration.
When asked how long the sanitary police
patrol might be obliged to remain on the
scene he said he could not tell. 1t would
be necessary to find the cousignees OF the
cargo before the watch was relinquished.
The orders directed to the owners OF the
infected ship did not appear to have eff
feet, and in consequence 1t was determin-
ed TO set a guard over the lighters TO pre-
vent the possibility OF plague dlssemlna-
ton in New York.
At quarantine to-day IL was said that
the first lighter load Of coffee from the
Taylor YVES free. so far as quarantine was
concerned, 10 pass on up to the city at
noon IL was the intention OF the police
not to permit any lighter from the Tay-
lor to pass up North River. although deh-
mite orders to that effect had not been re-
CQiVpd and thp pppOta for tho On roo "a a
not been informed whether they would be
allowed to send the coffee up to Pough-
keepsle and there discharge It.
Two steamers from Santos, Brazil, with
coffee, arrived to-day. They viii prob
ably have trouble IN landing their cargoes.

OPERATIONS IN PHILIPPINES.
Gen. Otis Thinks Natives VIII Ac-
cept American Government.

Gen. Otis Thinks Natives VIII Ac-
cept American Government.
Washington, Dec. 2.-The report Of Gen.
Otis on the operations in the fields up to
Aug. 81, last, has been made public by the
war department It is a volume of 27s
pages, with an appendix Of minor reports
almost as large.
The report Is a chronological recapitula-
ton of events In the islands since Gen.
Otis took command. One Of the most in
teresting features Is the immense amount
of detail involved in Gen. Otis admins
tration of the affairs of the Islands.
Gen. Otis throws some light on his Chi
nese exclusion act, declaring it a matter
of public policy. He goes at some length
into the racial differences Between the
Filpinos and the Chinese, explaining that
strong prejudice against the Chinese pre-
vailed among the natiyess because OF the
success and unscrupulous coiiduct OF the
Cinnamon in all trade matters.
Gen. Otis says that, in view OF the race
hatred between the Cinnamon and the ma
tives, as well as the factional differences
among the Cinnamon themselves, which
sometimes broke into open riot and blood
shed, he deemed it expedient to apply the
American immigration laws to the island.
This was done, and arrangements have
been made for identifying such Cinnamon
as have rights of prior residence in the
island so that no unnecessary hardship
may be worked
In concluding his report, Gen. Otis says
that it may prove fortunate that the Ag-
uinaldo insurrection was not stamped out
instanter upon it's inception. He
says that the natives through
out the island have peacefully and
even gladly accepted American oc-
cupation Of their towns whenever the
American troops appeared, and that they
have learned by experience that the in
surgents have made a speciality of murder,
outrage and robbery under the guse of
tablishlng a free and Independent gov
eminent. They have had a chance, upon
the withdrawal of American troops to see
the difference between American and ma
tive methods of government, and his opiu-
ion is that they will gladly submit to the
former as soon as they can be protected
frsm the latter.
Gen. Otis dwells upon the necessity of
establishing a good school system, and
says that the native population is very in
sistent upon the divorce Of the schools
from clerical control. This was promised
by the Spanish government during the
last insurrection, but the archbishop of
Manila has protested against its being car
ried out.

retary OF State Capote, in the course of
which he announced that he had officially
instructed all the Mayors in the Havana
province to refrain from joining In the

lowest candidate be dropped, thus bring
ing the fight to an end, so that the Re
puDlieans might have the hall for their
caucus, to be held later in the evening.
This suggestion must have had some ef-
fect upon the members, who were already
weary of the struggle, for at the end of
the fifth ballot De Almond was slowly
forging ahead
This did not please the Bailey faction.
who were sOlidly supporting Bankhead.
A few minutes later it was announced that
Mr.. Bankhead had Withdrawn, and his
forces would swing into the Richardson
line. Before the sixth ballot commenced
Mr.. Sulzer apparently realized that his
chances were hopeless, as he had dropped
down to a paltry fifteen votes, so he Wis
tied Mr.. Richardson's headquarters and
after short conference with Mr.. Rich
ardson, returned. The New York eandi-
date then withdrew leaving Richardson
and De Almond to be voted for.
Reinforced by the Bankhead and Sulzer
contingent, the end was soon reached, and
Mr.. Richardson was declared the unani-
nous choice of the caucus.
Minor officers were then named and the
caucus adjourned.
How the GeOrgians Voted.
At the outset the GeorgiarA were dlvid-
ed. Col. Lester voted for Dearmond; ;
Messrs. Lewis, Livingston, Maddox, Tate
and Fleming were for Richardson and
Messrs. Griggs, Adamson and Brantley
were for Bankhead. There were two alb
sentee, Judge Bartlett, who is i'll, and Mr..
Howard, who was called home by tele-
gram which reached him at Richmond and
told the news of the death of his baby.
After the fifth ballot Judge Griggs and
Judge Adamson told fhe Bankhead men
that they saw there was no chance for the
Alabama man, and that they would cast
their votes on the next ballot for Richard
son. This had the result of the with
drawal of Col. Bankhead's name, and on
the last ballot ell the Georgians voted for
Richardson except Col. Lester and Mr.
Brantley.
The Georgia delegation was successful
in its effort to elect FELTON, Knight There
were half a dozen or more candidates and
in the balloting the Georgia boy led all
the rest. He and Jimmy Engliss of Cali
fornia, who is one of the Democratic wheel
horses, and young Bland, the son of the
great Missourian, were the successful can
didates.

Senate to Take Hold of the Question
Upon Converting.
Chicago, Dec. 2-The Tribune tomorrow
will say:
The first legislation inaugurated in the
Senate at the coming session of Congress
win be that concerning Hawaii. Senator
Cullom, chairman of the Hawaiian Com
mittee, is authority for this statement. It
may also be stated positively that he
speaks with the approval of President Nc
Kinley.
Senator Cullom says in an interview that
the Senate, or at least a majority of the
senator's will aid him in pushing the Ha-
waiian question to a settlement so far as
the Senate is concerned. Congressman
Henderson, the next Speaker of the House,
is in thorough accord with Senator Cul-
lom in this matter and will lend all the and
his position as Republican leader of the
House makes 1t possible for him 10 do.
In other words, what Senator Cullom
states, is the administration programme
and it is assured that the launching of
Hawaii as a territory of the United States
will be accomplished as soon as the proper
legislation can be enacted.
