Tired Mothers.
MARY LOise Riley Smith,

MARY LOise Riley Smith.)
A little elbow leans upon your knee,
Your tired knee that has SO much TO
bear;
A child's dear eyes are looking lovingly
From underneath a thatch of tangled
hair.
Perhaps you do not heed the velvet touch
OF warm, moist fingers, folding yours
SO tight;
You do not prize this blessing overmuch-
You almost are too tired to pray to-
night.
But it is blessedness. A year ago
| did not see it as l do today;
We are so dull and ~thankleSs, and too
slow
To catch the sunshine till it slips away.
And now it seems surpassing. strange to
That, while l wore the badge of moth
erhood,
l did not kiss more oft and tendelly
The little child that brought me only
good.
And if some night, when you sit Gown
to rest,
You miss this elbow from your tired
This restless curling head from off your
your breast,
This lisping tongue that chatters con-
stantly;
II from your own the dimplcd hands had
slipped,
And ne'er would nestle in your palm
again;
If the white feet into their grave had
tripped,
l could not blame you for your heart
ache then.
wonder so that mothers ever fret
At little children clinging to their
gown,
Or that the footprints, when the days are
wet.
Are ever black enough to make them
frown.
II [ could find a little muddy boot.
Or cap. or jacket, on my chamber floor.
IT | could kiss a rosy, restless foot,
And hear it patter in nv house once
more
If I could mend a broken cart TODAY.
Tomorrow make a kite to reach tho
sky.
There is no woman in Gods world could
say
She was more blissfullv content than
But, an the dainty pillow next nv own
Is never rumpled by a shining head:
My singing birding from its nest Is
The little boy l used to kiss is dead,

Prince mt WRshingtOn.

Washington, Feb. 25.-Prince Henry of
Prussia and suite, accompanied by the
welcoming delegations from Baltimore and
the German embassy, arrived here at 1920
Monday morning, promptly on schedule
time. Secretary of State John Hay, Sec
rotary of the Navy Long, Assistant Secre.
tary of State Pearce, who had immediate
charge of the arrangements at the depot,
and Count Quadt and two other attaches
from the German embassy awaited the ar
rival of the train at the depot. They re-
manned in an improvised reception room,
the walls of which were heavily draped
with INTERVIEWING American and German
flags. The atmosphere was redolent with
the fragrance of flowers. The embassy
officials were in full uniform. A bugle
call by a navy artilleryman announced the
arrival of the train. 1t was halted Just
outside the depot, the engine detached and
the cars backed to position opposite the
receiving room, midway down the train
shed. The welcoming party passed quick
ly into the princes car and informally ex-
tended to him the welcome of the city.
A few moments later the party emerged
and passed to the reception room. Com
mander Cowles, President Roosevelt's
brother in law, and Adjutant General Cor
bin were the first to alight, and the prince
was not far behind them. Walking rapid
ly and with the erect bearing of trained
naval officer past the group of officials,
detectives and newspaper men, through a
double line of whom he passed, saluting
with a touch of his hand to the glittering
chapeau he wore, he crossed the carpeted
depot isle and entered the reception room.
There he remained 10 minutes. Assistant
Secretary Pearce and Chief Wilkie stood
at the door while the prince was waiting
Finally Prince Henry, accompanied by
Secretary Hay and Rear Admiral Evans,
entered the last of the open carriages
The carriages of the others were drawn
up in line, and the princes carriage
dashed at rapid speed to the head of the
column. Instantly the police and mill
tary escorts wheeled into position and
the party started up Pennsylvania avenue
for the White house.
Rarely in its history has the White
house been the scene OF a more brilliant
spectacle than Monday, when President
Roosevelt welcomed to the United States
Prince Henry of Prussia.

MISS Stone IS At Liberty
PRISONERS SINCE SEPTEMBER
American missionary and Mime. TsiI
ka Have Arrived at Strumitza-AIi
selves known Owing to Actions
of acknowledgements Eddy Talks.

Constantinople, Feb. 24.-Miss FL
airy, who with Nine. Tsilka, was cap.
tured by brigands in the district of Sa-
lonika, September 80, last, has been
released, and arrived at Strumitza,
Macedonia, at o'clock Sunday morn
ing.
Nobody was at Strumitza to meet
Miss Stone, as the brigands had given
no indication where they proposed to
release the prisoners.
Nine. Tsilka and her baby were also
released at the same time. They are
all well. Miss Stone Immediately
made herself known to the authori-
ties.
The first news of Miss Stones re-
lease was contained in a telegram re-
ceived by Mr.. Dickinson, the Ameri-
can consul general at Constantinople,
from the American vice consul at Sa-
lonika. The telegram gives no details
of the release.
AS Strumitza is near the Salonika-
Uskub railroad, Miss Stone will pro-
coed to Salonika without delay.
Secretary Barton of the American
board has received the following ca.
blegram confirmatory of the Associ-
ated Press dispatch announcing the re-
lease of Miss Stone. 1t was dated Sa-
lonika, and is unsigned. It is as fol-
lows:
Both Miss Stone and Nine. Tsilka
and child released from confinement.
In good physical condition and good
spirits"
SECRETARY Barton regards this news
as absolutely authentic. as the mis-
sionaries of the board had been given
instructions to send no cablegrams
based on mere reports, but to wait I'M
til positive information could be given.
-. A Political Matter.
New York, Feb. 24.-Spencer Eddy,
first secretary of the United States lie.
cation, who had charge Of the negotia-
tions for the release of Miss Ellen M.
Stone and Nine. Tsilka, arrived here
Sunday on the Kronprinz Wilhelm. In
an interview he said the brigands cap.
tured an American rather than any
other missionary, because they be,
lieved the Americans had the most
money, and would be likely to pay the
ransom.
did the brigands want the money
for themselves" Mr.. Eddy was asked
mo, they did not, and that is where
the American people do not under
stand the case. 1t is entirely politi
cal matter. and all the people in
Macedonia are in sympathy with the
kidnapping, for they believe it is q
step toward freeing Macedonia from
Turkish rule, the same as Bulgaria
has been, and the money they demand
ed ($100,000), was intended for the
Macedonian cause.
"If we had been dealing with the
professional brigands who wanted
money, pure and simple, instead>'of the
present ones, Miss Stone would have
been released long ago. 1t is very
likely that this capture was deliber-
ated upon for long time and the
victims selected were considered best
to serve the cause, when compared
with those of other nationalties."
