HANS AND LENA.

Frau Gherken was young and mex
her temper was fruitful soil for sus-
picion and jealousy. She was not
pleased with the new arrangement of
the store. She could not peal to- think
Of Hans in the company of a strange
woman day after day, and her pride
was hurt that she had not been con-
suited in advance about the plan.
When the merchant went home that
night he found his wife in tears and no
dinner prepared.
After much talk and more tears Frau
Gherken recovered her good humor,
and permitted Hans to kiss her fore
head, after which it was agreed that
Prof. Van Brieden should come two
days a week to give her music lessons.
The professor was young and hand
some and a great artist, and the days
when he came to teach her music
would not seem so lonely, and she
might forget the horrid woman MAX
ing change at the store.
One day Frau Gherken went to the
oNOAO AL Oul pa l0Cu AC1 AdoOdlu OtdDO-
ing in the little cage with the cashier.
Their heads were close together, be-
cause the young woman was helping
him add a column of figures so he
could check her daily cash account,
but to the jealous wife the scene was
proof that her husband no longer loved
her. That night she charged him with
planning to run away with his cashier,
and they came near to a serious quar-
rel, for the patience of Hans was ex-
hausted.
Then you can elope with your pro-
fessor," he replied, with some spirit
and anger.
Hans remained a long time alone in
the cozy little sitting room of his
home, thinking as hard as he could.
At last he slapped his hands on his
knees and laughed aloud.
II will elope," he said to himself in
a whisper. II must cure Lena, she
makes me so miserable. She shall have
a lesson.
The young merchant closed and
locked the door, and then he spent an
hour composing a brief note. When
it was finished he read it over several
times and laughed softly. Then he
went to the door and listened. There
was no sound. His wife had gone out.
He then placed the note or the center
table, where it would be seen by any
one who entered the room. The note
read
Lena: You have guessed my secret.
I have eloped. Now you will be happy
with your professor. HANS"

Washington, May ia discussion
OF the administration of affairs in Cuba
by agents of the United States occupied
the attention of the senate during the
greater part of the session. Senator
Bacon (Ga.) spoke at length on his
resolution directing the committee on
relations with Cuba to make iuvestiga-
ton of the conduct of financial affairs
in the island. He said 1t was due the
people of this country to know just
how affairs there were being conduct
ed; since the disclosures of the past
few days had been made with respect
to alleged transportation OF funds ia
the postal service, the obligation upon
congress to make investigation was
doubly heavy. He urged that the
honor of the country depended upon its
being able to clear away the fraud and
corruption which it was charged had
been discovered. He insisted that the
government of the United States had
no authority in Cuba, and demanded
to know how soon it proposed to re-
deem its pledge and leave the govern
ment of the island to its inhabitants.
The following measures passed: The
house bill repeating the provision of
the law allowing merchandise passing
through the United States from auy
foreign country to be transported free
OF duty so far as the Mexican free zone
was concerned; the resolution calling
upon the secretary of the treasury for
