Am inheritance .

TITS STEAMER CHAIR was drawn
IN up close and facing hers and he
was reading aloud. She watched
the play of lines about his mouth and
studied his brow and nose Suddenly
she sat up, pushing back the red hood
of her cape. do you KNOW" she
broke in, mo one is really interesting
unless he has suffered?"
The reader lost his place and said,
with some amusement: Where were
your thoughts? Don't you realize that
the heroine is just enjoying a pscycho-
logical moment?"
I'm not at all interested in the
heroine; besides, she's morbid. / am
much interested in you" she pulled
her cape about her and leaned back
but can't interpret the lines in your
face at ALL"
That's strange" he laughed. Three
days out from Cherbourg and still
mysterious. Do you always probe for
secrets so quickly?" There was a
suspicion OF sarcasm in his voice.
II beg your pardon" she said, let
ting her eyes follow the steward with
the afternoon coffee. I'm not probing
for secrets. If were I should be more
skillful.
He leaned over in half apology. IT
am not vain enough to think that you
have more than a literary interest in
the lines of my face. You are II
psychological vivisectionist, purely sci
entific, with only trace of sympathy
for the case in hand. But do not al
ways look for suffering. There is lit
tie of 1t in the world. Men are fools
when they say they suffer-"
The tone of hardness in his voice
reused her to contradiction, but the
look in his eyes kept her words back.
Instead of speaking she threw off her
rug and walked to the side of the deck,
looking down on the steerage. He
Joined her in apparent forgetfulness of
their conversation.
THE dead black of that woman's
hair against orange" he pointed to a
woman below them dipping her black
bread into a mug of tea-"wouldn't I
that be effective in pastel?"
But you couldn't get those eyes. I
should do the whole figure in clay, let
ting the Tragedy come out in the pose
Of the head and in the lines OF the
hands" She spoke meditatively, with
out assertion.
That's good" he answered, "but you
would need a bit Of horizon, or at least
a deck rail. And why is it"-he turned
with the impatience OF a man who
leaves tragedy to novelists-"that you
invariably see the pathetic side of
everything?"
She was puzzled again by the line In
his lower lip-was 1t hardness or re-
preston? Can you see anything but
tragedy down there? Look at that old
woman reading her Talmud and wiping
her tears on that dingy apron: and
that woman with the sick baby-she
must have been pretty once; and all OF

MAYOR SIGNS.

Mayor Fitzpatrick has signed the or

the municipal water question, and the
campaign of education will open at
once. Between now and November the
problem will be amply aired in all Its

when the people cast their ballots they
will do so intelligently. They have
nearly four months in which to learn
all there is to know about 1t.

is not. has not been. nor ever win be,
the slightest chance OF our country de-
parting from its traditional policy by
Intervening in this foreign quarrel. W.
are convinced that II this truth were
fully realized In South Africa, as 1t
ultimately must be. the war would soon
er terminate and thousands of lives be
saved. Hence we earnestly appeal to
men of all parties to eliminate this mat
ter from the coming campaign"
The fifty names appended to the let
ter are those of Democrats and Repub-
licans, men who pympathlze with the
Beers. and men who sympathlze with
England. but who above all things arr
true Americans who would not like to
see their country make an lrremediable
mistake. and who periodically COM
mend the present unassailable position
OF the government. The letter was con-
sIdered as an unqualified approval Of
the administration by the Philadelphia
convention. The main interest now
centers in how 1t will be received at the
Kansas City convention, whose prospec-
tive nominee has proclaimed that the
Boer war would be one of the issues Of
the campaign.
The Wheeling daily intelligencer. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1865-1903, 1900-06-27

The Democrats will make a bold blum
at Kansas City to manufacture few
extraneous issues, but they will not fool
the people. We do not see what they
expect to accomplish by revlvifylng the
thoroughly discredited Chicago plat
form, except to show the country that
the party is the same old stubborn ass
that is made the symbol Of the organi-
cation OF contrarIness. The one thing
the people know in this day and hour Is
that the land has never been so fruit
full and the people SO prosperous and
labor so well employed. The calamity
shouters will not be listened to with the
patience they were accorded in 1896, and
the octopus trailers can expect to make
no capital in railing at trusts when
the Democratic party is hunsycombed
with members of such organizations.
The main questions OF this campaign
have been succInctly set forth by the
New York Sun, and which constitute an
epitome of the Philadelphia platform.
They are as follows:
(Which do you prefer, to make money
or to lose money-to keep your Job or to
lose it?
Which do you prefer, prosperous ac-
tfvity or stagnatlon and depression?
Which do you prefer, steady and
healthy markets, business confidence
