THE BENCH AND BAR.
1t has not been so long ago when
the writer happened to be in coun-
try town in the Valley when law case
was called. A postponement was
asked on account of the chief counsel
for the defendant. The continuance
was promptly granted, though there
were fourteen witnesses, living miles
away, in waiting-eight on one side
and six on the other. The absent
counsel had gone on fishing excur-
sion! But he had left behind him
the mute but eloquent appeal of two
visits to Richmond to secure the re-
election of this Judge. Had this
Judge depended on the popular vote
for his election, this would never
have happened, and yet it was some
thing that excited no surprise in any
body in the courtroom MarlOttes-

A Widows Description orLove.

A Widows Description of Love.
"Love? Why, love is-love is"
The widow hesitated moment.
'Well, if one is falling in love for
the first time, a premonitory uneasi-
ness, in most cases, is experienced
such as one has never. felt before; at
the same time the mind begins to
dwell constantly upon one person,
and the haunting vision cannot be
banished.
Every soon the judgment becomes
perverted, the brain of the victim
loses ell sense of perspective and
proportion, and he views the beloved
being through defective intellectual
lenses, which not only magnify the
merit of the loved one, but surround
even her very faults with roseate
aureole that converts them from
faults to virtues. When one is in
love, defects of character act like
prisrhs on the rays of affection and
resolve them into rainbow of beau
tiful tints.
"At this stage jealousy makes it's
appearance, if it has not already
done so. Without the slightest cause
the lover often becomes jealous of
every man who receives a smile or
pleasant look. In his heart he
viciously terms the most innocent
and worthy people fools and Williams.
He treasures worthless trihes like
soiled gloves and faded flowers as if
they were of priceless value. Some
Virginia citizen. (Irvington, Va.) 1891-1921, 1900-07-13

times, if he is at all weak-minded, he
writes verses on these small keepsakes,
There is alast stage.
When this is reached the victim
wonders how he ever endured to exist
before he met the object of his devo-
tion. AS for the future, he feels
sure that all the pleasures that fame
and riches can bestow will have but
the taste of Dead sea fruit, of dust
and ashes, unless he marries his
hearts choice"
As she ended the widows voice
became very low aud soft, her eyes
fell, and | wondered if she were
thinking of me, or one of her three
dead husbands.-SamueI MiRturu

ded in her manner of dressing by an
even greater desire to please than

the most unobservant man, but he

tice of wearing soiled finery at home
cannot be too strongly deprecated.

FOREIGN TRADE GAINS.
March Figures Show Exports More Than
Doubled Since 1909

Total exports of American products
and manufactures in March, as shown
by the figures of the Treasury Bureau
OF Statistics, were 1874, 3,34S, against
$104, $50, 6S9 in March of last year,
$75,574,1S5 in March, 1896, and $685.
516,571 in March, 1893. Thus last
months exports were more than dou-
BILE those of March. 1893 and rs per
cent greater than those of March Of
last year, and larger than those of any
preceding March in our history.
The total exports in the nine months
ending with March. 1900, were s1,O5S,-
s32, 675, against s947 ,919, 4O5 in the cor
responding months of last year, $685.
9O5, 1926 in March, 1897. and s515, 49,
635 in the same month OF 1886 hav-
ing thus doubled in fifteen years and
increased over SO per cent since 1898.
Exports of agricultural products are
about the same as last year. the nota-
bic increase of more than 100 million
dollars in the nine months in question
being largely in manufactures. 1t is
apparent that the total exports Of the
fiscal year 1900 will exceed those OF
any preceding year in our history. I'm
ports also show a marked increase
over last year. the principal gain be-
iEE In Manufacturers materials. while
manufactured articles for use in the
mechanic arts also show an increase.

ateun,nberg for Governor.

The ludicrous feature of the Idaho
situation is to be found in the fact
that the Democrats out there want to
renominate Governor Steunenberg in
order to take advantage of his popu-
larity and secure the electoral vote
for Bryan. 1t is evident that the po-
litical capital sought in the Washing
ton investigation was not for Idaho
consumption.
