Dickens's Prose Poems.

The apology with which the editor
Of the Leader prefaced Dickens article
on Niagara in his American Notes was
unnecessary, 1t Is q beautiful speci-
men of word painting.
Many years ago, Mr.. Horne, the au-
thor of the Living Age" published
an article on the writings OF Charles
Dickens, in which he notes a peculiar
1ty in the construction Of many of his
sentences, II is that they are written
in blank verse, which explains the
smoothness with whiGh they fall upon
the ear.
have never seen this popularity
alluded to in print excepting by Mr..
Horne, The same thing is noticeable
to a close observer in many passages
in Blackmore's Lorna Doone."
The closing paragraph in the article
from Dickens in the Leader is an ex-
Quisite poem in blank verse in the
same measure that many poets have
sometimes adopted. I will give the
words the arrangement Of verse.

think in every quiet season now,
Still do these waters roll, and leap and
roar
And tumble all day long.
Still are the rainbows spanning them
A hundred feet below.
Still when the sun is on them, do they
shine
And glow Hike molten gold.
Still when the day is gloomy do they
fall
Like snow, or seem to crumble away,
Like the front of a great chalk cliff.
But always does the mighty stream ap-
pear
To die, as 1t comes down,
And always from the unfathomable
grave
Arises that tremendous ghost Of spray
And mist which ds never laid;
Which has haunted this place
With the same dread Solemnity
Since darkness brooded on the deep:
And that first food before the deluge,
Light
Came rushing on Creation at the word
OF God.
We might give many more Instances
OF this popularity in the writings of
Dickens, but will mention one para
graph from the "Childs History OF
england" in which the same thing is
manifest
"The sun rose high and sank,
And still the battle ragged,
Through all the wide October day
The clash and din resounded in the air
The Normans rallied, and the day was
lost"

Varied Life.

Sunshine and shadow filed the long
life OF Kate Chase Sprague. In girl
hood days and in the days of young
womanhood, the skies were blue; in
matronly days the skies were lowering
But thousands who have enjoyed
wealth and power have lived to see the
day when even bread seemed hard to
get and dear These cases. though, do
not parallel the case of Mrs. Sprague.
Hers was rare indeed.
She was not born to the purple, for
her great father experienced many
vIcissitudes in his early days. Yet she
early came to be darling of fortune
and baslted in her favor. The smiles
Lnen changed to frowns, and for long
years wo marked her for her own.
Her spirits, however, never failed her,
and whether reyeling in the luxuries
OF wealth or wondering in solitude
what day might bring forth, she was
the same dauntless, courageous wom-
an of culture, whose pride never for a
moment failed her.
Her marriage may be cited as a fit
illustration of the unsubstantial ma
ture of temporal affairs None was ev-
er so promising. Her union with Will
liam Sprague was looked upon by all
as the perfect consummablon of worth
ny bestowed affections. Upon one side
were great wealth, high family and gen
tlemanly culture, combined with great
natural and acquired ability, On her
ssJe was the fame of great name and
father, who would, in all probability
reach the greatest place in the gift Of
the greatest republic. Well might the
people have unanimously congratulate
ed the distinguished lovers, who were
soon to embark in the same boat, for
better or for worse.
Alas! it turned out for the worse.
When poverty came in at the window
love went out OF the door. The vast
fortune Of the spragues melted, as
melts the snow, in the panic of 1873.
The fall of the house was great, so
complete indeed that the Spragues had
scarcely a roof over their heads.
Scandal came. 1t came to Mrs.
Sprague, as it comes to others chaste
as snow. Then the divorce, and
thence forward the twain went by
roads that never met again. Both lives
closed in darkness. They furnish
pages from which great lessons may be
learned Tribune.

Sued City For Damages.

A damage suit against the city was
instituted at Circuit Court by Nc
Sweeney & Barrett for Mrs. Emma j.
Earle on Tuesday afternoon. The suit
is for $4,000, for personal injuries sus-
,ained by Mrs. Earle by a fall on
Thirteenth street on an icy sidewalk
last winter. She brought the matter
before the city council and an offer of
800 was rendered Mrs. Earle, out she
refused that amount.-Sentinel

A MIXED CASE
Which Ends in Landing All Parties
Concerned in Jail.

In Squire Palmer's court yesterday
afternoon, Thornton Lucas was tried
on tie charge of living in adultery
with Susie B. Moore. The warrant for
his arrest had been issued on an af-
ffdavit sworn to by the woman's
husband, Francis Moore, of Adams
county.
The particulars leading to this case
are as follows; 1t is said that on March
Ia. 1890, Thornton Lucas and Susie B.
Moore left heir homes in Adams coun-
ty, coming to Marietta, near which
place they have since lived as man
and wife under the assumed name OF
anderson. About a month ago, Moore
came here and Instituted proceedings
against them in Mayors court, but the
case was dropped, the plaintiff failing
to appear. Moore stated that he had
dropped the case owing to representa-
tions made to him by his wife that she
would lead better life. Recently
Moore had Lucas arrested on the
charge mentioned and the trial came
off as stated.
The defendant, by his attorney made
motion to dismiss the case on the
ground of insufficient evidence. The
motion being overruled, the defense al
lowed the case to go by default and de-
fendant was bound over to Common
Pleas Court under 5000 bond, which he
failed to give and was committed to
Jail. Attorney Coen represented the
prosecution.
During the trial, Constable from
Adams county appeared on the scene
and later arrested Mrs. Moore on the
charge of bigamy, it being alleged that
she was married to Philip Kelly, in
Belmont county, in 1883, before marry
ing Moore. She was taken to Jail for
safekeeping and left late in the even
ing in charge of the Constable for
Adams county for trial
Francis Moore was arrested on the
charge of perjury, the affidavit being
filed by Lucas. He was arraigned, and
by his attorney, H. B. Coen, pleaded
not guilty, waived preliminary exam
ination and was bound over under $500
bond. Failing to furnish bond, he
was committed to jail

Chicago's Originality.

On Monday, Oct. 9, known as Chic
ago day, the Metropolis of the Lakes
will lay the corner stone of the new
Government Building. This of itself
/ is not worth special notice, but, as
usual, Chicago is to make the event
something more than local. and even
more than National, for, il her plans
go not astray, the laying of the corner
stone will be international in effect
That the event win be fittingly cele-
brated, invitations have been sent to
all Senators, members of Congress, to
the Governors of the States, to the
Mayors of leading cities and to many
leading citizens, whose presence will
lend a distinguished air to the oceas-
ion. This would seem enough, but
Chicago is not satisfied at this point.
Their is a probability that two Pres
idents may grace the occasion with
their presence. The President of the
United States has accepted the Invi-
tation to be present, and will be ac-
companied by several members of his
official family. The other President is
Diaz, OF MEXICO. To impress upon him
the importance OF the OCCASION a rep
resenlative of the City of Chicago was
sent to Mexico to ascertain il an invi-
tation would be considered He gave
an audience to the representative, and
said that he would be much gratified
to receive an invitation and would ac-
cept the same. So a committee will
leave Chicago this week with an in
vitabion, elaborate in design and finish
signed by the Governor of the State
the Mayor, Chairmen, Secretaries, cit
izens, etc.
No doubt the occasion will be fitting
ly celebrated. Chicago does tnlngs
we'll when she is thorough yawakened
Even the meeting of the two Presi-
dents of Western republics will be a
novelty, and more than that, conducive
to amicable feelings between the two
nations, and possibly factor in maxi
ing new trade relations. We congrat-
ulate Chicago upon her enterprise and
upon her ambition to do something
out of the ordinary. Compared with
the program laid out by New York to
entertain Dewey, the program for the
laying of the corner stone at Chicago
shines as an arc light beside tallow
dip of past generation.-Cincinnati

In chapter Of "reminiscences Of Won

anecdote of Humboldt: .."- -..s.

thing for him, was very silent. His
host, remarking 1t, observed to Hum
boldt that he was sure he must be ill.

great trouble. Only ten minutes before
leaving my apartment to come here
received from my landlord a note in
forming me that he had sold the house
in which / reside and that must
move. The very thought drives me to
despair. I really cannot bear to move
again."
Mendelssohn gradually led Humboldt
into conversation, during which he
found time to write note and receive
an answer to it. He then took Hum
boldt aside, and said: "By this note
learn that am now the owner Of the
house in which you reside. The condi-
ton, however, upon which / have be-

Gave Her n Ra"rinsr RawI

Nine. Antoinette Sterling, the con-
traltO singer and evangelist, had an ex-
perience in the Bombay presidency,
India, which is as quaint as any of
Kipling's tales of the hills. She was
campaigning with Pundita Ramabai,
and through her magnificent voice was
drawing thou. 1nds Of natives to her
meetings. They had never seen that
kind Of a missionary before and had
never heard a voice like hers. They
were SO pleased with her work that
they said to themselves:
''This is a foreign woman guru, and
for fear Of giving ofense to US she has
omitted to put her begging bowl out
side Of her door for us to put in the
customary contributions"
In India every guru, or holy person,
carries a brass, wood or clay begging
bowl, into which the devout put some
small sum Of money. Nine. Sterling
walked out upon the veranda Of her
bungalow one morning, and there, to
her amazement, found two begging
bowls one, little one, with few an
mas in it, intended for the pundita and
one, an enormous affair, containing a
handsome sum of annas and rupees for
herself.
The only explanation she could ever
extract from the servant was this:
Little bowl, little money for the little
pundita with little voice; big bowl, big
money for big missahib with big
voice. Saturday Evening Post.

AMERICAS FIRST GEORGE,

Washington was not churlish but he
had that preference for being unob-

on the morning of Aug. 80, 1870. The
servants were instructed to steal away
at dawn, to have the carriages and lug
gage over the ferry at Paulus Hook by
sunrise. By candlelight, Mrs. Wash

assembled in the morning room.
The president entered, pleased with
his stratageE. He was enjoying in
prospect his concealed departure. In

struck up on the still morning air the
blaring, vigorous notes Of an artillery
