comes to a vote on February 6. The re-
publicans expect only two votes on their
side against it; those of Senators Hoar and
Hale, and it is now doubtful if Senator
Hale will hold out against his party. The
democrats will vote as party against It
though there are fully ten or twelve who
will vote for it. Gray, Lindsay, Morgan,
Pettus and Clay are five who are confidently
put down in favor of ratification. Senator
Clay, however, will vote for all amendments
offered before voting for the treaty.
The Flow of Eloquence
flow of eloquence In the senate still con-
tinues to be of high order. With the GER
tainty of vote being reached at this ses-
sion much of the spirit will be taken out of
the debate, but there will still be a number
of fine set speeches made. The friends of
the treaty will not debate 1t much more
though some of them will make speeches on
it. Senator Davis evidently feels confident
now that it will pass. If he did not he
would never have allowed 1t to come to a
vote. ~ 2
It Is customary in the senate for the ma
jority, as soon as 1t finds that its measure
can be carried, to sit back and let the other
side do the talking. Experience has shown
them that set speeches are lass effective
before the country than a heated debate
or controversy in the senate. The latter is
given much space In the papers and at
tracts the attention of the country, while
a set speech Is seldom re1d.
Senator Mallory, of Florida, delivered a
very remarkable speech In in the senate
last Thursday, but there were few Interrupt
tons and very little debate over his con-
illusions, whereas the controversy in
the house the day before between
Deliver and Johnon of Indiana, at
tracted the attention of the entire
country. Dolliver is supposed to be

Love Is Like the Ocean.

How like the sea, the myriad-minded
sea,
Is this large love of ours; so vast. so
deep.
So full of mysteries! It, too, can keep
Its secrets, like the ocean, and is free,
Free as the boundless main. Now it
may be
Calm like the brow of some sweet child
asleep.
Again it's seething pillows surge and
leap
And break in fullness of their ecstasy.
Each wave so like the wave which
came before,
Yet never two the same! imperative,
And then persuasive as the cooling
dove;
Encroaching ever on the yielding
shore
Ready to take, yet reader still to
give
How like the myriad-minded sea is
love!

"Druce," said he; that's my name"
His hand lay in mine like a parcel
of bones. I dropped it quickly, ana
spit into my palm and rubbed it on my
trousers. He looked at me angrily,
and I saw in his face, which had grown
white and livid at my action, the like
aess to that white and livid face which
formed part of my childish remem-
brance. The face of the other man,
too, the man who had been wronged,
with the blood trickling down it, came
before me again.
What is the meaning of this?" he
asked.

want no more of your words or your

I am aware that it was most IN
reasonable in me to speak to him in

make the son accountable for it? But
The name and all that belonged to it

shoulders. He walked away, and ]
was glad to be rid of him.

Would Be One Among Many.

Enterprising foreigners desiring tt
enter into matrimonial relations with
American women would do well tc
ponder on the case of Count Matte
Liewen Stierngranat, son of the cham
berlain of King Oscar of Sweden, who
is now in jail in New York city on a
charge of breach of promise preferred
by young lady of wealth and position.
The count is good example of the no
BILE foreigner who cometh to Columbia
to seek bride and a fortune. He was
arrested two weeks ago at the suit of
Miss Lesbia NJ Boswick, who alleged
in her petition that she had reason to
believe that the count was about to
sail for Sweden, and not marry her, as
he had promised. The count was i'm
mediately arrested and, being unable to
give $500 bail, was committed to Jail.
The count is tall, handsome-look
ing young man of 81 years, and has all
the appearance of a gentleman born
and bred 1t is evident that he does
not consider the offense a particularly
heinous one, and is more surprised at
the Incarceration than concerned as to
his fate. He explained to the justice
before whom he was arraigned:
4 was not aware that was Obliged
to marry her simply because I had be-
come engaged. 1t was my impression
that l could become engaged to as
many girls as 1 desired, and did not
necessarily have to marry any of them
until l had really found that one had
suited me best"
He was informed that although such
might be the custom in Sweden, it
could not go in America, and reserved
his decision. His father is one of the
richest and most Influential men on the
Scandinavian peninsula and, although
it is improbable that $4,000 will be
paid over to the unhappy lady whose
affections the stalwart Swede has
stolen, he will undoubtedly be made to |
pay dearly for his presumption.
