WASHINGTON. Nov. 1.-THE ar

presence IN Washington OF members

meut in Congress on reciprocity. II

prority treaties negotiated by the
state Department through Commits
Fianar Kasson viii not be ratified.
Reciprocity in some form may be a
part n the legislation enacted by the
next Congress. but the best thought
among members Of Congress on the
Republican side is that II will not be
through treaties.
A majority OF Republican Senators
have expressed themselves either
publicly or privately against the reel
pr0city treaties. Such prominent Sen
ators as Allison. Aldrich, Spooner and
Lodge win be found opposing them.
In the House. Payne. Dalzell. Tawney,

WILLIAM D. WASHBURN.

of UniVersaIistS

William Drew Washburn, of Mime
sofa, who has just been elected presi-
dent of the Universalist general con-
vention by the delegates at Buffalo,
is one of the wealthiest manufacture
ers in America and a well-known citi-
zen of Minneapolis. where his large
flour mills are located. Mr.. Washburn
has participated in political life since
1861, when he was appointed United
States surveyor general of Minnesota.
He was subsequently elected 10 con-
gress for three terms, and in 1859 was

to the lady principal of the college.
At first thought it would seem that
cemeteries would be anything but suit
able resorts for sweethearts. but in
Germantown, Pa, the NorthwoOd Gem
etery became so popular as a rendez-
vOus that the directors found ii neces-
sary to interfere. Hence the notice

COurtship in Russia sometimes in
wolves couples in very serious co lse-
quences quite in accord with the tyran-
meal rule which there unfortunately
prevails. In thai benighted country,
as well as in some parts of the United
States, it is a crime for lovers to kiss
in public.
A few years ago, says the New
York World, two young men and
two young women were arrested
in Odessa for this terrible offense.
1t was committed in a restaurant,
where the culprits had been din
ing together. Several other persons
were present at the fatal moment and
witnessed the deed.
Having heard the evidence, the judge
declared that the prisoners had been
guilty of shameless conduct in a pub
lie place" He therefore condemned
them TO Imprisonment for several
days, whereon they promptly appealed
to a superior court against his deci-
sion.
Their counsel argued that kissing
ould not be considered shameless con-
duct inasmuch as it was generally re-
garded as the most legitimate and nat
ural method of showing affection. The
appeal was, however, dismissed.

SUSIE IN THE POORHOUsE.

Woodbury. town, and installed her as
its mistress.
When Susie Cole was stricken with
serious illness a year ago, she had
neither relatives nor friends TO whom
to go. She was accordingly taken to
Orange county poorhouse. There was
little in the wan face and emaciated
figure to suggest the rosy bride of to-
day. Superintendent HasbrOuck and
his wife and DR. Condit, the house ply.
sician, were moved by the girls friend
less condition. and exerted themselves
to care for her, and soon her new
found friends were rewarded by see
ing a new light in her eyes and new
color in her cheeks. And then there
we're few prettier girls in the country
side than Susie Cole.
Simmonds came TO the poorhouse
last summer to transact some business
and saw and admired Susie. When he
limited that he would like to become
acquainted with her Mrs. HasbrOuck
brought them together.
The wedding was the first to be cele-
brated at the poorhouse, and the Has
5roucks determined to make it joy
Gus one.
Promptly at noon the officials Of the
Institution and 200 inmates gathered
IN the parlors. Few of the women
there but had had some hand in pre-
pairing the brides trousseau, which
was beautiful ard complete from the
bridal dress to a going-away gown.
Susie was radiant when she entered
on the arm of Superintendent Has
brouck. She stood with her handsome
Young lover under the arch of flowers
and the marriage service was per-
formed.

in the form of a brooch, is of a deep
sapphire blue, and of the greatest
briliancy and purity; no other dia-
mond of this rich color has ever been
discovered.
1t is believed that this gem is part
of the same stone which weighed in
the rough 112 carats, and was bought
in India, in 1912, by NJ. Tavernier, the
well-known French traveller and mer-
chant. 1t was sold by him to Louis
XIV. and continued to be one of the
jewels of the French crown until 1892,
when it was seized by the revolution
lists and deposited in the Garde Meu-
bic. 1t was, however, stolen from
there in very short time and diSap-
peared from all knowledge until 1880,
when the stone shown in the photo
graph came into the hands of a Mr..
Eliason and was eventually bought by
Henry Thomas Hope ConnOisseurs
at once pronounced il TO be the stolen
stone brought from India by NJ. Tav-
ernier, but recut so as to render iden-
titicatiOn difficult. Contrary to some
rumors in the states, the jewel is
now, and has for many years past
been, deposited at PARIS bank, in
Cavendish square, London.
Now that Lord Francis Hope is at
length at liberty to sell the jewel, it
will be curious to see how much it
will fetch, as it is reported to be
worth untold sums. 1t seems most
probable that it will either be pur-
chased by wealthy American or gS
back to the land of its birth as the
property of an Indian prince.

of the United States.
Course OF True Love Is Made Rough
in Many Localities, Whose Laws
Have Evidently Been Made
by MisanthrOpes.

The course of true love is made
rough for sWeethearts in many towns
in the United States by the interfer,
ence of the law.
At Scranton, Pa, lovers are appar-
emily regarded with especial distavor.
The shaded streets of the aristOcratic
section of the town known as Green
Ridge are favorite resorts Of cOurting
couples. The residents, however, do
not take kindly TO the presence Of low
ers there, and the other day five
couples were caught and hailed before
the court. What is more, they were
actually fined 50 each.
Atlantic City has also adopted re-
pressive measures. The policeman
who patrols the beat each evening was
last summer furnished with a baton
which by touching a button could be
converted into a brilliant incandes-
cent lamp. With the rays of this light
beating into every nook and every cor
ner the officer carefully searched all
the pavilions along the shore for coup
les who might be spooning there.
Trenton, n. j., is another rough
place for the cooling lovers. Not long
ago the residents of West State street
called on the police to take action
against strollers, and now any man or
woman found billing and cooling in that
section is taken into custody.

Suffolk, Va, another town which pre-

1t Charming Bride,

When Susie Cole went "oyer the hills
to the poorhouse" of Orange county,
at Goshen, n. Y, the most vivid
imaginations could never have pic
tured her taking leave of the place as
bride to go to a coy home of her
own. Yet such was the manner of her
departure the other day; and never,
says the New York World, was hap
pier bride or a gayer wedding.
Theodore SimmOnds, a well-to-do
young farmer, was the happy man, and
he took his bride to his fine farm in

New England, and spent his early

He settled in Minnesota in 1887, and
