be mentioned, and-yes, he would be

"Well, Miss Ansom, / need hardly
say that your story has astonished me
beyond measure. But L will not dis
guise from you the fact that during
the time you have been with us you
have won my highest esteem, and, in
fact, l regard you with feelings of pa
ternal affection. We must write to that
young scamp and have him home.
Meanwhile"
With a cry of joy Miss Ansom flung
her arms around his neck and Imprint
ed kiss on his nose.
At that moment the door opened,
and Mrs. Mansfield stood on the
threshold, with hands uplifted in hor-
ror. She could not have timed her en-
trance with greater precision had she
been waiting, with eye at the keyhol
John! Miss Ansom!" she gasped.
Mr.. Mansfield looked frightened.
my DEAR" he cried. nervously. ST
am going to write and tell Jack to
come home. This young lady has prom
ised to be his wife. She is in fact tn e
young lady about whom We had that
foolish quarrel
1t took Mr.. Mansfield quite a quar-
ter of an hour to make his wife UNDER
stand clearly the facts of the case.
But when she did understand she
burst into tears and rapturously en-
braced Miss Ansom, assuring her Of her
undying affection.
Mr.. Mansfield at length managed to
slip away, congratulating himself on
the success with which he had eXtricat-
ed himself from an unpleasant posi-
ton. After all, he was glad of an eX-
cuse to welcome his boy home again.
But perhaps if he had heard what
passed between his wife and future
daughter-in-law when they heard the
hall door close behind him he would
have realized that they had scored on
all points.
"Dear, darling Mrs. Mansfield" cried
afresh. How good of you to have me
here as your companion, and then to
devise this clever plot! Why, it was
quite drama!"
''In which you played your part very
well, my dear." replied the old lady,
patting the girls cheek affectionately.

Strange Prophecies.

Clement V. and Philip ". procured
the condemnation of MoIay, the grand
master of the templars, to the stake.
AS he was led to execution Molay
cited his prosecutors to appear before
Gofss throne, the king within 40
weeks and the pope within 40 DAYS.
Within those respective times both
died. Rienzi, the last of the tribunes,
condemned to death Fra Morale
When he had pronounced the SEN
tence the culprit summoned the judge
to meet death himself within the
month, and within the month Rienzi
was assassinated. In 1875 Manning
Koppezoon, a Roman Catholic, tor
tured to death during the religious
strife in the Netherlands, recanted his
eXtorted confession when on the way
to the scaffold. A clergyman, Jurian
Epeszoon, tried to drown his voice by
clamorous prayer. The victim sum-
moned him to meet him within three
days at the bar of God, and Epeszoon
went home and died within that time.
While at the stake Wishart openly de-
nounced Cardinal Beaton: 'He shall
be brought low, even to the ground,

their May foliage when the bleeding

murderers over the battlements of ST.

OUR TWO PRESIDENTS.
The Difference Between Mcktn ey1
Personal and Official Senti-
mcnts.

There is something revolving to the
human conscience, after all, in the ap-
! peals that are being made by certain
newspapers, urging the republican
senators to stand by the official presl-
dent in his recommendation of plain
duty in the matter of free trade with
Porto Rico, to the utter exclusion of
the personal factor of the president
pleading with members of the house
Of representatives to act in diametric
opposition to his own advice. While
loophole of escape is offered him,
Iii his official capacity, one which 1T is
to be hoped, for the honor of the coun-
try, will be taken advantage of, there is
suggestion of meannesS, OF base be-
trayal about it, of men who resigned
their own convictions, and violated the
wishes of their constituents, at his au-
gust intercesSion Not that they are
entitled to any special sympathy. Men
capable of betraying the public trust,
of violating their oath of Office, in def
erence to the wishes of any potentate
or power, are consigned to ignominy
by universal verdict, but there has al
ways been recognized such virtue to
exist as honor among thieves. Is the
president of the United States willing
to take shelter behind such a fimsy
differentiation between himself in his
official utterances and himself in per-
sonal, pleading colloquies? Is he capa-
BILE of such a lightning transforma-
tion from the clearsighted head Of
nation to the farsighted head of a
party providing against contingencies
of individual peril? The presidential
office has been sullied by acts of usur-
patton of power or dereliction of duty
before, beyond doubt, but has ever
such a spectacle of paltry meanness
been presented by the chief of great
government?

tains their vote on the Porto Rico bill
Philadelphia Ledger.
With the signing of the Porto

Kansas City Times.
The leaders of the republican
party in Washington believe that the
interest taken in the question of the
Porto Rican tariff will die out rapid

congress will not be vindicated on
that account. If they are wrong, the
work finished yesterday will be sore

course followed has been unwise and
bad, both in politics and public NOR
