The SHORES oF SILENCE.

Through the dark, grim gateway of silence
There comes not an echo OF sound
And the land of the hidden hereafter
To men is an untredden ground.
But why do l strain sight and hearing
To catch but a fragment so small?
Oh why should wait for the swing of the gate
Or hope for the future at all?
All, sweet in the moments Of slumber
The glimpse of happier land
And bright is the light and the glory
That falls on the wide golden strand,
For sometimes see the light simmer
In fitful but glorifed CLEANS
On the sea and the shore of glad evermore,
The fanciful island OF dreamsl
Sometimes in the hours Of my waking
/ seem to hear music and mirth
That floats out OF chaos and silence
And reaches the sin burdened earth,
But know that the glow and gladness
Is empty as odor and air,
And the music hear is in some other sphere,
The land of my longing and prayer.
Some time there will be ripe fruition,
And shall be dreaming no more;
IN give up the shadow for substance
And sail to that glorihed shore.
All, then will lift the dim curtain
And know cen as l have been known;
My bondage shall break when my soul shall
awake,
And my spirit shall come to its own!

PATERSON, Y. J., Oct 1S.-AIl the
preparations were made for the marriage
Of Miss Mae Gladys Harrington, of 151
Preakness Avenue, and Peter Kempl1es a
silk commission merchant Of this city.
Thursday night. but the bridegroom was
absent. It is said that he left this city
On Tuesday, and Nc explanation is given
for his absence. His mother and brother
say that he has sailed for Germany and
that he will not return. but they will not
diyulge the reason. It is said that there
was a quarrel between the lovers on Mon
day evening, but Miss Harrington denies
this and says that they parted on the best
Of terms on Monday night.
When Mr.. Kempkes did not call on her
on Tuesday evening she wondered what
was the matter, and she and a friend went
to 1S6 Wayne Avenue, where Mr. Kempkes
mad fitted uD a house for his bride. They
found The keyholes in all the locks plugged
with pieces of wood and all the doors and
windows barFicaded. Miss Harrington
went to the home of Mr. Kempkes and
there learned, il is said that he had sailed
for Germany. His brother, Herman, told
Miss Harrington that Peter might have
committed suicide 1t has been learned,
however that his departure had been
matter of some deliberation. as there were
on Thursday three deeds by Peter Kemp
kes disposiDg OF all his property in this
country The 1rst transferred two pieces
Of property TO his mother. the second gave
TO his brother all the household effects re-
Gently purchased for the house on Wayne
Avenue which the couple were TO occupy
after the marriage, and the third trans

10 his brother, Herman. This was evi-
IDENTIFY all done on Tuesday, for on that
day Mrs Kempkes visited her sons office
and remained there for two hours. Then
Mr.. Kempkes went to the Erie station,
and he has rot been seen since in this city
On Thursday cable despatch came from
friends OF Mr.. Kempkes at Neusz. Ger

MILLIONS FOR STEEL RAILS.
Orders for 24o, 900 Tons at S26 "a

PHILADELPHIA, Oct 13.-Contracts
for 240.O0O tons of steel rails at s26 a
ten, total of s6.24O. 900, were awarded
here yesterday.
The 40.000-ton contract of the Baltf-
more and Ohio Railroad is included in
the amount. The Pennsylvania takes
15e,Ge0 tons and the Chesapeake and
Ohio and the Norfolk and Western take
p, 600 tons each.
The companies among which the con
tracts are divided are the Lackawanna
Steel Company, of Scranton; the Ed raj
Steel Company, of Chicago; the Carnegia
Company, the Pennsylvania Steel Com
pany. the National Steel Company. AMI
the Cambria Steel Company. CT Johns
town
The Pennsylvania Railroad has been
seeking 20 secure It's rails at s22 per ten
The railroad decided finally to accept the
$26 rate and to make up the difference on
the freight rates. The delay in pacing
the contracts by the Pennsylvania has,
i'll measure, been due to the failure of
the managers of the c0mpanys Western
lines to report the quantity of rails need
ed by them.
The Pennsylvania RAILROAD has placed
its contracts at the pool price CT S26 per
ton as the maximum price, subject to any
decline from that price that may take
place by the time of actual delivery CT
the rails. The officials of the company.
like those of other railroads, deem h
price Of SIG per ten too high when COM
pared with the price Of steel bilIats.
There is and has been, however, 70
disposition upon their part to ''hear'' the
price Of steel rails taking the broad .w
that if the price fixed can be maintained
and that of steel bil1ets, which the steel
men contend are too low, brought nearer
in proportion, the better they will be
able to maintain rates

TRINITY COLLEGE FOR WOMEN
Rapid Progress on the Building to BE
Deaicafed NoHenaber q.

Dedicated November u.
The last of the final examinations for
admission to the Trinity College
for Women has been held. and, it is said
a large number of students have been
secured for the scholastic year. accom-
modations having been arranged for 100.
The school term begins November l, and
the dedicatorial exercises will be held
November g.
The programme for the dedication has
been almost completed and invitations
are now being sent TO many prominent
persons. asking them to participate. The
orator for the occasion has not yet been
chosen, but the selection will, 1t is said
be made from among the higher dignita-
ries of the church. The college viii be
under the auspices of the Sisters of No
tire Dame.
The building, while plain, is nassi e
and elegant, and is situated but a shol
distance from the Catholic University
on the Brookland electric car line The
plans were made by Sister Mary of Notre
Dame, who communicated her ideas to
the architect when he was making the
contracts and specifications. Sister Mary
visits the college daily and directs the
workmen and contractors, watching all
the time to see that nothing is neglected.
Notwithstanding the fact that Sister
Mary is nearly sixty years of age, when
1t is necessary TO climb ladders to the
fourth story of the building she has no
hesitancy about it. She is much pleased
with the progress which has been made
on the building. for when the corner
stone was laid last December there was
some doubt as to whether the structure
could be completed by the beginning of
the next school year.
Subscriptions are now being received
for the purpose of obtaining $50 600 the
income from which is to be used for sup
porting a chair of philosophy. Many en-
dowments have already been assured.
The auxiliary buildings to be erected and
equipped, as soon as enough money is
forthcoming, are q science building, art
school, music hall. gymnasium, and resi-
dence building for use in case the pres
ent structure becomes overcrowded.
These departments will possess many
improved and advantageous features.
The endowments will be sufficient TO in
sure an effective corps OF teachers, and
the faculty will be enlisted from the
most experienced and capable officers of
the Sisters of Notre Dame. The authori-
ties claim the college will be equal to the
highest institutions OF the kind in the
country, including Vassar Smith, Welles-
ley, Bryn Mawr. and Radcliffe.

This rose, the odor of which is very
sweet, was never grown in Baltimore be-
fore this summer. 1t was originated bv a
New York florist, who sent out thousands
of slips of it to the rosegrowers through
out the country, with the request that each
would suggest an appropriate name. DR..

THE RIGHT THING.
a New Catarrh Cure, WhIeh Is Rap

Idly Coming to the Front
For several years. Eucalyptol, GuaiaeoI
and Hydrastin have been recognized as
standard remedies for catarrhal troubles
Dut they have always been given sepa-
fately and only very recently an ingeni-
Gus chemist succeeded in combining them,
together with other antiseptics into

mas met with remarkable success in the

Mr.. Geo. ]. Casanova, of Hotel Griffon,
West Ninth Street New York City,
writes: I have commenced using Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets and already they have

A leading physician OF Pittsburg advises
the use Of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets in pre-

The catfish are shipped to the Northern

ARGENTINA's FOREIGN TRADE
The United States n Relatively I'm
p0rtant Factor

poEeSsHt actor.
Minister Lord, at Buenos Ayres. has
sent to the State Department report on
the foreign commerce OF the Argentine
Republic for the first six months of the
year 1900 as compared with the same pc
riod in 1899 he states that imports for
the period were $56, ,527, ,673, a decrease of
1925, ,249- The exports were $94 ,099. ISL. an
increase of S5,04S.3 1899. The total foreign
trade was $151 ,626,S44, an increase Of
S4.123 140.
The greatest import trade of the Ar
gentine Republic is with Great Britain.
Italy. Germany, France, and the United
States come next IN Importance, in the or
der given. though their combined ship
ments to the country are little more than
equal to those Of Great Britain alone.
These five countries supply more than
three-fourths of the foreign goods used
by the republic.
The report comparing the imports for
the two periods mentioned shows that the
imports from the United States have de-
creased from $5,000.000 to So 500 ,000 or
81, coo. GOO. Great Britain's shipments to
the republic have also dcrased from S21,-
coo ,0G0 to $4,000, coo. On the other hand
France has shipped slightly more goods
to the Republic than the United States
this year, while last year her shipments
were slightly less Her figures are $5,-
SOC. .U00 an increase from 50, ,400, GEO.
The exports of the Argentine Republic
euriously enough seem to bear little re-
lation to the imports as lar as their des-
tination is concerned. Germany Bel
gium, France. and Great Britain receive
approximately an equal amount of her
exports between $12, 00G, 900 and S13 ,000, 900
each. No other country is an important
purchaser from her. The United States re-
ceived during the latter period only $3,-
500 GOO. The exports to the United States
have increased about $500. eco. The only
important change in the export figures is
that France has bought nearly 81, GOO eco
less than in the 1899 period.
