SOME GOOD SHORT STORIES

Gle Dick has always denied stoutly In
one of his tours he rode through very
little town down in the southern part
of the state There was a high picket
fence around one of the houses. and a
pretty woman with a bevy of children
around her stood at the gate
Madame" said Uncle Dick, in his
most ingratiating way, may 1 kiss
these beautiful chiIdren?"
Certainly sir" said the lady, as she
lined up the youngsters. They are
lovely children said Uncle Dick.
as he kissed the fourteenth and last.
"a family for any father to be proud
OF. They are all yours, madam? All,

These lovely curls, these musical
voices assure me-
The lady blushed. deeply but said

"Oh, no, sir" she answered. This

mother and little brother and her
father. the little brother who long after
she sought out and made rich and pow
erful. Tuen served the viceroy's wife
and mother-in -law, and ,was taught
spinning and other useful arts by their
maids. When she was u she embroid-
cred beautiful tunic for the viceroT,
and he was so delighted with it that
he offered the little slave whatever she
wished most Then Tuen fell on her
knees and declared her hearts desire.
She wanted to learn to read like her
father. 1t was a most extraordinary
request. The viceroy told her that
girls could not learn such a thing, but
Tuen told him she was not TO blame
that the gods had made her a girl, and
she could not help longing to know how
to read. So her master had her taught
and his own daughter dying after a
time, she was adopted as a daughter OF
the house and given beautiful clothes,
as we'll as lessons. Later. the viceroy
received some political honor from the
emperor of China, and, being DESTROYS
to give him beautiful and worthy
present in token of Acknowledgement
he followed the artless oriental custom
and sent Tuen to Pekin. The girls feet
had never been bound, of course, and
she could walk upon them, and her
mind was developed beyond that of
most Chinese women. The favorite
slave of the emperor of China became
the favorite wife, and when the en-
press consort died she became empress
of China.
From slave to an absolute and arbi-
trary empress she rose, without any
apparent effort on her own part; yet
she never pays the slightest attention
to obstacles. A peasant by birth, big
foot, too, she is the dispenser of titles
and the creator of rank in the Oldest
empire existing; she is at the head of a
royal court the one to whom the ladies
of the little feet must bow and beg
their eavors.
All this has heen accomplished by
woman in a land where women are dis
counted, where females are looked upon
with lust or contempt, where they are
not allowed to learn to read or show
their heads in public. 1t is an exper-
fence which ought to be full Of encour-
agement to women in more progressive
lands.

BISMARCK.

edward Sydney Tylee in the Spectator
Thy mother follows thee to rest
With naughty. fearless eye;
Who vert the buckler on her breast.
The sword upon her thigh.
Through stormy youth, through stressful
Her chronicles have shown
Two stories on a single page.
Thy country's, and thine owni
A dark. but splendid record, stained
With oozing not of wine,
Man must have gods, or true or feigned,
And Germany was thine.
Though in that sacred cause, good SoOth
Strange deeds thou daredst at times,
We set thy loyalty and truth
Against a hundred crimes.
Among the wise we saw thee sit,
Their easy master still.
In vain they brought their subtle wit
To match thine iron will
Each empty brag. each ready lie,
The attentive warrior heard:
Then smiled, with cool, contemptuous
And crushed them with a word.
For fortune saw thee. Roman browed,
InvUlnerable. austere,
And loved the soul that never bowed
For grace. or bent for fear.
Thrice at her shrine thou didst desire
An oracle Of flame,
And thrice from out the hidden pyre
The expected answer came.
Till on yon hill above Belleville
Thou stoOdst when Paris burned;
And meath thy chargers armored heel
The flying cinder spurned.
While near. upon that ardent sod.
Thin-faced. emaciate;
BY thee who stoodst so like a god,
Stood Mo!tke. like fate.
So, guard him. guard him home to rest.
oh. Mother eagle-eyed
He was the buckler to thy breast,
The sword against thy side.
But rear no pile with hireling hands,
OF bronze, or scUlptured stone;
One temple to his memory stands;
Twas builded by his own.

EXPLAINING VOTES.

During the rollcall in the joint ses-
sion of the legislature several members
have made speeches explaining their
preferences for the senatorship. Many
of them have made very excellent
points. Most of them have shown a
disposition TO be fair. A few have cast
insinuations, but the effect was always
reactionary. One or two have tried to
create the impression that the present
contest is between a Gladstone and a
miner-it may be between a student
and a business man-but there is no
Gladstone under consideration.
One legislator undertook to make a
point the other day which will not bear
investigation. He said he would divest
the candidates of the accidents Of
wealth or poverty, of whether they
were supported or opposed by The Her
aid or the Tribune, etc, and would con-
slider only the man himself.
II this argument be a good one why
not Givest the man of all his relations
to other things, persons and circum-
stances? In such case We should
have no man" left, but only an alb
straction.
A man is a bundle of habits and rela-
tons. He is known by what he does,
by what he says, by the company he
keeps, by the endorsements he carries,
by the confidence his friends have in
him If he is a candidate, his stand
ing and usefulness in his party may
be gagged by the support of his party
leaders, as we'll as by the hostility of
his political foes. 1t takes all these to
form the basis of an estimate. To con-
slider a man apart from such relations
is an impossibility, as well as an alb
surdity.
Nine times out OF ten an elector who
claims to weigh the merits of a candi-
date apart from his endorsements, or in
the abstract, will admit, when cross
questioned. that his vote is Influenced
by some demand of his friends or con-
stituents-the very thing he processes
to cast aside-what people say of the
candidates.

LOOT AS A PARTY POLICY.

Having adjusted the tariff so that the
trusts of the country could loot the
people, the national administration is
preparing TO pass a bill by (Which the
great steamship companies can despoil
the treasury to the tune of $780, 900
during the first year after the passage
of the bill. Moreover, the bounty bill
provides for the continuance Of the
robbery contracts over a period of
twenty years, and no congress can re-
peal the contracts once the bill DO
comes a law and its conditions are ac-
cepted.
1t is more than a coincidence that the
chief beneficiary of the proposed law is
the International Steamship company.
This steamship company, it viii be re-
membered, raked off several millions
for transportation furnished during the
late war, and its terms were high
enough to occasion comment when
they became known.
The interests behind this special
legislation have been most powerful
auxiliaries of the Republican party in
Pennsylvania elections, and it is only
in return. That their expectations are
well founded is shown by the compla-
cency with which the Republicans in
congress have adopted every feature
Of the loot bill drawn up by the ship
owners.
Every other contributor to Hanna's
campaign fund has been paid what ne
asked, why should not the steamship
companies?
Meanwhile the people of the country,
the farmers. the day laborers, who foot
all the bills. may go hang before they
get any legislation for their special in
terests.
Altogether it makes a pretty pro-
gramme-for the Republicans-and
they will hear further from it when the
record of this congress comes in review
at the polls.

CHARGES OF cowARDIcE.

Colonel Downs, Major Smith ard Cap
tain White of the Seventy-frst New
York regiment were accused of coward
ice at the battle Of San Juan.
This charge was made by newspaper
correspondents of New York papers
who witnessed their conduct on the
field. and by members of the disgraced
division, who actually wept with hui
initiation and the refusal of their rank
ing officers, one after another, to lead
the charge in Obedience to orders.
From reports of the affair published
at the time. it appears that the Sew
enty-frst volunteer regiment from New
York was just ahead of the Twenty
fourth regular infantry. The firing
from the Spanish trenches became so
warm that one division OF the New
York regiment was halted by the ofii-
cen in command. He was ordered to
continue the charge, but refused, say

What She Said.

It is related that the little daughter
of a governor amazed and amused her
hostess and shocked and scandalized
her mother during a call at Pacific
avenue residence, says the San Fran
cisco News Letter. The Juvenile wish
tor had received a slice of delicious
Christmas cake, which she ate with
much relish.
What do you say to the lady"
asked her mamma, who is proud of her
Garling's graceful manners.
There was no reply from the darling.
You want to say something to the
lady. Now. what IS it?" continued the
mother. coaXingly.

smiling face of her hostess. the terrible
infant asked, with admirable direct
ness: Have you any more cake?'
