ANCHORED FIRMLY TO THE SOIL

In Nassau, the capital city Of the Ba-

public square"-not the trees. Now,
the public square at Nassau is quite as
large as that Of most cities of the size,
but there is only one tree in il. and
that tree literally fills the square and
spreads its shade over all the public
buildings in the neighbOrhOod. For il

MAY Be COMPLETE FAILURE
UNPLEASANT RUMoRS REGARD
ING THE HAGUE CONFERENCE.
Powers Seem to Be Lukewarm Re
garding the Unusual Peace Pro-
position.

Washington, March 14-In diplomatic
circles here an unpleasant suggestion
has been thrown out to the effect that
The Hague conference has resulted in
complete failure and that even the linn
tied programme agreed upon is never
to be perfected. The basis for this
belief is the fact that up TO this mo-
ment it is not known officially that
single one of the powers represented in
the conference has ratified the three
conventions prepared there.
The treaties themselves require that
each of the participants in the con-
ference shall be notified whenever the
other parties ratify the convention. So
far as the United States government is
concerned, only one of the treaties has
been ratified by the senate ana even
in thai case the foTTnalities have not
been carried to completion.
1t is probable. however, that the ap-
pearance in Washington OF the newly
appointed Dutch minister. bringing
with him the official copies of the con-
ventions. may result in further action
by the United States upon them.

MUSIC AND COURTSHIP.
How a Hand Instrument Overcomes
Difficulties of a Love Affair.
Mexican Hereby

CMexican HersId.)
The manner in which a love affair be-
gins is quite interesting, and in this,
as in every other matter in Mexico,
there is a right and a wrong way of
setting about it. In the first INSTANCE.
the meeting between the man and the
girl is quite accidental Possibly he
is passing in the street and sees her at
the window. Mutual interest is
aroused. and then you have the begin
ming Of as pretty a courtship as you
could wish for, and one that is thor
oushly Mexican.
Now. the usual way for the young
man, one would think, would be t. = 81
an introduction we English al7I0s
look upon an introduction as Sc ---
This, however, is not at all nese-
and in most cases it is possible the ala q
knows something about the girl BE-
fOrehand. Having decided that he
would like to carry on an affair with
her. his first move is in some manner
or other to send her his card accompa-
MED by a declaration Of his admiration.
If he has been very much fascinated,
a poem is perhaps addressed to the fair
one. I must not forget to mention that
1t is a very usual thing for the gentle
man to ask the lady for some token by
which he may know that she desires to
countenance his suit. Perhaps he re-
quests her to wear a red rose in her
hair or perhaps it may be that he
earnestly begs the senOrita to throw
him some particular flower from her
WINDOW when he comes to learn his
fate.
There are many and numerous other
WAYS Of starting a love affair, and the
ingenuity sometimes disp' syad IS ve-v
amusing. There is one factor in partic-
ular which is favorable 10 lovers in this
country, and that is the cleverness Of
the servants. There is no man who
understands the fine points Of an in
