Long engagements.

There was q tragedy in the suburbs
Of New York the other day. After an
enga cement lasting twenty years be
tween a rich farmer and a lady. the
lady suddenly changed her mind and
married a man in the navy This is
one Of those rOmances in real life which
make one inclined to believe in the
veracity OF Mary Z. wilkins. Possibly
readers with a considerable amount Of
sentiment in their constitutions will be
inclined TO blame the tickle maiden but
the chances are the world in general
viii say that she was quite justified. If.
after twenty years OF betrothaI. it IS
not yet time for matrimOny. there is
some reason for the belief that it never
viii be, and though nothing is more
common than for people in the ardent
preoccupation Of youthful love to de
clare that they VIII never marry any
one If they cannot have their beloved.
such determination is rarely continued
for many years. The usual thing IS for
the two most concerned TO carry on the
enga cement until there is a quarrel OF
one or the other forgets about II. and
this usually happens inside the limits
Of a lifetime.
If 1t does happen, the outcome is IN
questionably for the best in the great
majority OF cases. It is much better for
people to be honest than dishonest in
anything, even in love; in fact, the i'm
p0rtance Of being honest in matters Of
the affections is perhaps greater than
IN anything else, because the conse-
quences Of deceit are more momentous.
Il Is not always the fault Of a person
particularly a very young person, if d
change Of mind does take place HUI
man nature is prone 20 ideaIize the be
loved object, and in a world where
things are as complex as they are in
this enc, idcaIizatioE is dangerous.
Most Of US have = Dr. JekyH and Mr..
Hyde makeup which leads Us to be
very admirable on some occasions, and
very despicable on others; and It is
more than likely that the Dr. JekyII

person happens some day 10 go around
on the other side Of the adored or ador-
ing one, there is disiIIusion and woe and
tribulation. These things have to hap
pen. They are like the measles and the
chicken-pox and the mumps, and they
are very unpleasant, but not usually
very serious. Like measles, they come
harder when taken late in life.

Circulation Statement.
The Anti-Canteen Accumulation.

It is no longer doubtful that the PEG
pie officially responsible for order and
discipline in the army win make an
effort at the next session of Congress
to secure a repeal Of the idiotic anti
canteen law. and they VIII have the
sympathy and support Of every real
friend of the soldiers and of the cause
of temperance.
From all directions we hear that our
military posts, from being models of
order and sobriety, with the disappear
ance of the post exchanges have be
come centres of debauchery. around
which whisky dives and worse places
have been drawn like deep bitches, into
which most enlisted men inevitably fall
whenever they get outside of the mill
tary lines with money IN their peck
cts. Hence the monthly pay day has
grown to be a horror to officers. and to
the men under them who are able to
control themselves. The Canteen IS

the mess, with its pleasant reading
room. and its pint OF honest, wholesome
American beer. Its place has been Ia

TIE public is well informed concern

The whole country this morning is
panied to learn that the lady Of the
White House has temporarily sUccumb-
ed to the excitement and fatigue OF
what must be a very trying journey,
as far as nerves are concerned, and has
been taken to San Francisco to rest and
recuperate. Unless she RECEIVERS her

infer that there Is nothing unduIy
