Washington, Sept. 4.-When Presi-
dent Mckinley returns to Washington
tomorrow he will find all the members
Of the cabinet, except Secretary Long,
in town. A cabinet meeting will be
held the first Of this week-the first for
a month-not because there is anything
Of special Importance requiring atten.
ton, but merely a resumption Of the
regular routine Of the government.
As a precautionary measure several
war ships have been ordered to SantO
Domingo to protect American interests,
IT 1t becomes necessary, during ths rev.
olutiOn on the island. There is no
foundation for the rumors alleging an
intention on the part OF this govern.
ment to interfere. So long as the par
ties to the revolution respect the rights
of Americans. there is no likelihood of
interference.

SENATOR THURsTON's POEM.
He Is To Wed The Young Lady Who
Gave The Rose

The marriage of Senator John Nj.
Thurston, of Nebraska, to Miss Pur-
man, of Florida, announced to take place
yesterday, recalls a recently published
poem by Senator Thurston which mas
been widely published, and upon which
many parOdies have been written. When
Media was in Washington last winter,
Senator Thurston gave a box party and
there met Miss Purman, who is Il beau
tiful young lady of twenty-five and siEgs
a charming soprano. She gave the o.
year old widower, whose WINE nuC ue1n
dead only year, a rose that even!n;,
and becoming young again, he wrote inns
poem:
| said to the rose: "Oh, rose, sweet rose,
VIII you lie ON my heart tonight,
Will You nestle there, with your perfume
rare,
And your petals pure and white?"
said to the rose: "oh rose, sweet
rose,
Will you thrill to my every sigh,
Tho your life exhale in the morning pale.
And You wither and fade and die:'
III.
l said to the rose: ''Oh rose. sweet rose,
viii you throb with my every breath;
Will YOU give me the bliss of a passion
ate kiss,
Albeit the end is death?"
IN.
The white rose lifted her stately head,
And answered me fair and true;
Il am happy and blest to lie on your
breast,
For the woman who gave me to you.
The following are the two best paro-
dies written on Senator ThurstOn poem
+" THE SCENT OF THE ROSE"
/ ].
| said to J. NJ: ''Oh, John dear John,
Whatever impelled you to do it?
Had you known in time the fate of Your
rhyme,
= You wouldn't have lived to rue It."
H.
said to J. NJ: ''Oh, John dear John,
How sad is the life of a poet;
Did YOU think of the woes when you
a sang TO the rose,
ha Perhaps not, but now you know II.

When you sing to the rose, pray do It III

Then j. NJ lifted his manly brow,
And said to me fair and true:

DOING SOCIETY DUTY.
The door-bell rings,
The portal swings,
My lady comes a-calndng,
In velvet dressed.
Her veil close pressed;
The formal talks appalling.
The style, the day,
The church, the play
Whatever line she fancies.
Then minutes pass;
She says, ''Alas,
Time flies" and off she dances.
No real word said
From heart or head,
No Thought, to live in beauty;
Her list she checks

IT'S NOW THE FRECKLED GIRL
Let antiquated poets sing
OF skins all lily white,
And brows of alabaster hue
Their fancy to delight!
The modern bard perceives a change
In fashions shifting plan,
And strikes his tuneful Tyre in praise
OF freczles and of tan!
OF healthful iron in the blood
These dainty freckles tell,
And in those unburned cheeks the fires
OF outdoor vigor dwell;
No more in worshiping rapture now
The milk white maid we scan,
But kneel instead to her who blooms
In freckles and in tan!

device for enabling the lookout to de-

way up, but little could be told about
Its utility owing to its being placed In
poor position. 1t consists of brass
box. which fits over the mast and
which has projecting from each end a
broad-mouthed funnel. From this box.
close to the tunnels, two tubes like or

the deck below. Inside Of the box
there is complex arrangeDout ot dia-

placed. vt sound will enter only one

ne funnel on the opposite side Of the
box. On the lower deck Is an arrange
ment like an engine-ro0m indicator. by
which tho box above may be turned
around the mast, and directly under
the indicator Is a tell-tale compass.
The man below places the tubes to his
ears, where they are held in place
by cap. Unless the tunnels above are
pointing directly toward the sound
which he wishes to locate he will hear
1t only family and in one ear, because
one OF the tunnels being turned from
the sound the tube opposite does not
operate. He then turns the Indicator
n the direction from which the sound
appears to come, and when the funnel
Is pointing directly at the sound It
