to heaven. when ne looks down on all
tbs world and hears the talk Of the stars
and the songs Of the night
Field has scattered some of his most
delightful child verse through this slum-
Der story, and around his infant hero he

full of the charm that made Field so be
loved of children.
Two of the best poems from 1.-THE

REPORT OF MISS STONES
DEATH is c0NTRADlCTED

Washington Dec Secretary Hay this
afternoon received cablegram from
Spencer Eddy, United States charge
q affaires at COnstantinODle, saying that
he had received information on what he
regarded as good authority, to the effect
that Miss Stone and Nine. Tsilka are
still alive.
The difficulty in bringing about a set
tlement appears to be one of terms. as
il has been impossible to convince the
brigands that the $4,000 in the hands of
MI Dickinson represents every cent of
money that has been subscribed toward
ransoming the captive, and they are
holding out for a minimum of 100000
which is only SO coo less than their orig
inal demand. II is stated that not
single dollar has been subscribed to the
ransom fund since the outpouring Of the
iirst two or three days following the ap-
peal for contributions.
