ON FOREIGN TERRITORY
Presidents Visit to German Embassy
and Royal Yacht.

The recent visit Of Prince Henry of
Prussia" remarked naval officer to
Star reporter the other day, established
two records In the history Of the Presi-
dents of the United States The first was
when President Roosevelt was the Princes
guest on board the German warship Ho-
henzollern at New York and the second
was when the President attended the din
ner given in honor of the royal visitor at
the German embassy in this city. So far
as can learn there were no precedents for
either action. foreign warshfp and a
foreign embassy are foreign territory under
all circumstances, and from that stand
point President Roosevelt went out of
United States territory and jurisdiction on
both occasions. You know it has been an
almost unbroken rule with all the Presi-
dents never to accept invitations to dine
in the national capital except at the houses
of the members of their cabinets and
never heard that any President ever before
dined at the official home of a foreign am
bassador I we'll remember the action of
President Cleveland and the Columbian
naval review in New York harbor in 1S93
Warships of all the important countries in
the world took part in that event. but the
President made 1t point not to go aboard
any OF them He confined his visits af}oat
to United States warShips and reviewed the
foreign naval fleets from the quarter decI,
or the naval yacht Dolphin To nv mind
It would not have made any difference If
he had gone on the foreign men-of-war
and the only reason he did not was nroh
ably purely sentimental"

the faith Of doing for himself and felt
himself happier as he lay down that night
In his bare apartment with the stars look

he had been since the strange disappear
ance Of little Fairlie and her sister Kate.
John Glendonwyn did not begin his min
istry with any remarkable manifestation of
power, but he gradually gave proof of a
conscientious readiness to do the best that
in him lay for his people. His pulpit work
was excellent and profitable from the first.
Frankly acknowledging his ineXperience
to his congregation, he began to restudy
with them the plain gospel teachings in a
series of discourses which was long memor-
able in Cover. These might be called di-
rect searchings for the word of truth, and
to congregation sated with half held plat
ltudeS and spacious commonpaces their
new minister's earnest, strenuous reaching
out after higher things came almost with
the force of a revelation.
In this fashion John Glendonwyn won a

CHAPTER XIII.
The Cloud Breaking,

Being John Glendonwyn's first nara
tive)
I am asked in the interest Of those who
shall come after me to put on record all
that l know Of the grievous and terrible
events of that evening ever memorable to
me, and trust not to be forgotten by my
descendants, the day Of November IS of the
year 1S42.
1t was well nigh six months since that
other day, when. in the city of Edinburgh,
/ had been informed Of the complete disap-
pearance of my dear Fairlie Glendinning,
together with that of her sister Kate, whose
fate seemed to be mixed wita hers in a
common mystery.
During those months I judge that no
young man had grown older more quickly
than l.
God was busy indeed With me In these
days, and l went abou. my business with
an unseen hand heavy on my spirit.
put on the Sabbath day. being the 17th
or November, my spirit seemed a. last to
have broken it's way out into a peacs to
which 1t had long been a stranger Walk
ing as my custom was in the kirkyard in
the early morning, / watched the sun rise
out of a black bank of clouds, which, how
ever. presently dispersed and vanished,
leaving the blonde stubblefields white with
early rime, the turnips paled little from
their deep sea-green, and such an inGe-
StilDdDiS crisp luxury OF DTS6Cning In the
air that I gave thanks to God, and took
courage.
1 had chosen for my text that day the
words of the psalmist my meditation of
him shall be sweet" And for the first
time in the parish Of Cover I spoke with
out note
1t was strange to me, ignorant as yet
that In the smallest degree 1 possessed that
gift OF speech which moves folks hearts,
to note the hush which fell on the congre-
gation to mark how. slowly and unknown
TO themselves, they bent forward in their
seats, and how as often as the speaker
paused they leaned back with a universal
sigh which was to me as unexpected as 1t
was memorable and impressive.
l had gone down into the vestry and was
there setting my papers in order before GO
ing up TO the manse (where, as I knew, old
Babby Lockhart would be laying out q fru-
gal meaD, when / heard a knock come to the
door-no fnfrequent thing In Scots parish
in which Is generally some passing Samari-
tan urgent to pour oil into the wounds made
by a mans own conscious failures
But when i called, Come in" 1t was to
my great astonishment that Duncan Grier-
son. our old butler at Castle Cover, entered
with his well-accustomed gesture of saluta-
tion. a movement full at once of dignity
and respect.

it cordially, then for a moment he did not

The Man Who Wins.
Henry Edward warner in the Baltimore News

The man Who wins Is the man who works.
The man who tolls while the next man shirks.
Ihe man who stands in his deep distress
with his head held high in the deadly press
Yes, he is the man who wins
The man who wins is the man who knows
Inc value or pain and the worth Of woes
Who a lesson learns from the man vho fsi,z :
And moral finds in his mournful walls:
Yes, he is the man who wins
The man who wins Is the man who stays
In the unsought paths and the rocky ways:
And perhaps who fingers now and then
To help some failure to rise again.
All! he Is the man who wins!
And the man who wins is the man who hears
The curse OF the envious In his ears
But who goes his way with his head held high
And passes the wrecks of the failures by-
For he 10 the man who wins.

keen appreciation of form as well as dex-

but this year the class has taken ND the
study of color, and some excellent examples
of this interesting phase of their work were
shown. The purpose of the instruction is
not to make of the students artists. but to
merely make perfect their equipment as
teachers; to teach them, in other words to
see correctly, to appreciate and to express
with tolerable accuracy as their need may
demand: finally, to unfold and place within
their grasp the truly universal language of
art. This course was originated and deyel-
oped by Mrs. Andrews. but il is in, all sa-
lfents points similar to the one adopted by
Mr.. Dow last fall for the kindergartners'
class at the Pratt Institute. II has been
most enthusiastically received by the stu
dents and. has accomplished most satisfac-
tory results.
