ONE NEW YEARS EVE.
BY Manda l.. Crocl5er.

The swish of a blue dress. a
faint breath If violets, as in
passing, and he felt rather than
saw Marie Symmetrical go by.
Standing a little apart from
the knots of merry young peo-
pie thronging the pleasant
rooms, he was conscious Of Il
thread of pain running through
the last night of the old year,
touching only Miss Summerfeld
and himself.
BY he, 1 mean Leigh Reyburn,
the owner Of the old-fashiOned,
low-roomed grange beneath
whose roof the young people of
GladbroOk had gathered to keep
a merry watch-night. With
music and laughter and gay re-
lpartee they meant to dance a
welcome to the joyous New
year without much thought for
the staid old twelve month
which had served them so faith
fully.
But Leigh moved uneasIly
sending imploring glauces af
ter the blue gown, all to NJ
purpose. Marie was absorbe
with the fascinating Compan.
of Maurice Davenport, and wa
smiling her sweetest-and Ma
rie could smile divinely-an,
entertaining him admira bly,.
Reyburn was thinking hard
and, it must be confessed, ur
Charitably. Had he worshipe
and petted and lived for Mis-
Summertield these two blesse
Sunllt years, tC nave nope an
happiness go into the grave c
the frail old year leaving nott
ing but memories?
What vas that Marie wa
singing to the sWeet-toned GU
tar she held so daintily, stral
ped in place with a blue ril
and?
"Ring out the old, ring IN the new;
The year is dying, let it go;
Ring in the new; ring in the new" "
Her voice seer: ID to falter
little on the repeat as it fell
soft cadence. Was it pOsS
BILE she was thinking of the o
SO tenderly-the old love, f
instance? All! we'll, lie did n
know.

forces. Lined up on either side OF the
German war vessel are the American
cruiser Philadelphia and the British
man-of-war Porpoise. Both vessels
are cleared for action, and bold all on
board the German vessel prisoners.
Such is the brief statement OF affairs
at the Samoan capital two weeks ago,
according to news brought by the
British liner Aorangi, which arrived
at Victoria, B. O., this morning. She
touched at the Island of Savaii, the
most northerly of the Samoan group,
and learned the startling news from
the passengers of the iuter-isiand
steamer Upolu, plying there fromApia.
The German commander was sur
prised on shore by q squad OF marines
and sailors from the Porpoise. With
a handful of German sailors he was
distributing ammunition to a crowd
Of sub-chlefs and fighting men Of the
Mataafs party. The British effected
the capture without firing a shot, and
took the German commander directly
to Capt. Sturdee.
A consultation between Admiral
Kautz, Captain White, Of the Pbila-
delphis, and Capt. Sturdee, Of the

and true Democratic paper, editorially
says: The Journal suggests that in
Missouri the Democrats go New York
fourteen better by giving fifteen 81
banquets, one in each of the con-
g~ressional districts OF the State. Such
a programme would stir up the party
as 1t has not been stirred for years. A
banquet in st. Louis only would de-
prive many worthy party workers
from enjoying it. The district idea
would put the feast within reach Of all
and a circuit could be arranged that
would take the distinguished men Of
the nation into every corner of the
State, arousmg party enthusiasm to q
degree that the majority for W. j.
