AN ABBREVIATED SNOWSTORM.
Mechanical devices are now made
wonderfully real on the stage said the
old stock actor. 'It hasn't been so
many years ago since even the simple
device of depicting snowstorm was
regarded an achievement. I remember
on one occasion I was out with a ten,
twent and thirt'' company, playing
repertory, and. in one melodrama-I
don't now even recall the name, for it
was piratical play took the part of
an old man whose daughter, the hero
inc, had been abducted I was sup
posed to be blind, and my strong scene
was the third act, when I went out into
a snowstorm in search of my daughter.
She was lying in a drift, and as T. hob
bled across the stage I kept crying:
Me che-ild! where is me che-ild?'
Well, it was early in the season, and
the play was the first attraction at that
theater. The scene painters had been
at work, and had dropped several paint
brushes, hammers and other articles
into the sheet that held the snowstorm
AS the stage hands in the flies shook
the sheets to make the snow come out,
a couple of hammers came down and
just missed me by an inch. I was
blind and didn't dare look up, but when
monkey wrench just grazed my tenn
pie I had presence of mind enough to
yell See yonder moon! The storm is
over!' The stage hands took their cue
and let W on me, and the audience
never stopped to question how a blind
man could see yonder moon. "-Phila-

patch from Constantinople which an
nounces that Miss Ellen N. Stone has

while travelling with Madame Tsilka
and party Of about Is friends was
captured by brigands in the district
of Salonika, Sept. 3. Since that time
vigorous efforts have been made by
the United States government and

sometime You Shall Know.
Eugene Field.l

Last night, my darling, as you slept.
l thought heard you sigh,
And to your little crib I crept,
And watched space thereby;
And then stopped and kissed your
brow
For, oh. l love you So
You are too young to know it now,
But some time you shall know.
Some time when, in darkened place
Where others come to weep.
Your eyes shall look upon a face
Calm in eternal sleep;
The yoiceless lips, the wrinkled brow,
The patient smile shall show
You are too young to know it now,
But some time you may know.
Look backward. then, into the years,
And see ME here tonight;
See, 0 my darling, how my tears
Are falling as write;
And feel once more upon your brow
The kiss of long ago
You are too young to know it now,
But some time you shall know.

Creasurers 60 get the same. ME>
Lyies declared that his amendment
could be further amended 50 as to suit
every county.
Mr.. Mauldin supported the amend
ment for the same reasons advanced
by Mr.. Lyles.
Mr.. kibler opposed the amendment
on the ground that it would destroy
the uniformity of the bill. He con-
tended that auditors do more work
than the treasurer in some counties.
Mr. NJ. L. Smith advocated the
amendment. He protested against
passing an arbitrary rule giving these
officers the same salary. The treas
urer in the greater number OF coun-
ties gets more than the auditor now
and he should, for his bond costs more
and he has considerably more work
to do as rule.
BY a vote of 81 to 80 the house tabl-
ed Mr.. Lyies' amendment and declar-
ed itself in favor Of giving the auditor
and treasurer the same.
The section relating to county
treasurers provides: THAT the county
treasurers in each of the counties OF
the State shall receive the same
salary as that paid to the county
auditor of such county, the salary OF
such treasurer to be paid by the State
and the county, in the same proper
tion as that Of the county auditor.
That in addition to the salary so pro-
rided for. each OF the county treas
urers Of the State shall be entitled to
charge of delinquent taxpayers 80 cents
for each tax execution issued against
delinquent, such fee not u De clarg-
able against the county.
Mr.. Prince wanted to strike out OF
the section relating to pay of treas
urers the paragraph allowing the
treasurer so cents for each delinqeunt
tax execution issued by him.
Mr.. Croft opposed the amendment.
On motion of Mr. Beamguard the
amendment was rejected.
Mr.. Austin wanted to make this de-
| linquent fee S1.O0. This was voted
down on motion of Nh. Mclaughlin.
This fee is to be paid by the delin-
quent himself, not out of the public
funds.
Mr.. Prince moved to strike out the
paragraph giving the auditor 25 cents
for each conveyance Of real estate
made on his books.
Mr.. Prince said that the law requir-
ing conyeyanceS to be recorded is not
carried out.
Mr.. Jno. P. Thomas, Jr., opposed
the amendment. The amendment was
lost.
Mr.. Williams wanted to make this
fee 10 cents instead of 25 cents. This
too was voted down.
The sections relating to the salaries
of treasurers and auditors were adopt
ed as amended.
Mr.. Dorroh then offered an amend
ment to strike out the section fixing
the salaries of sheriffs and to substi-
tute the old act giving the sherifs Ger
tain fees. This was tabled by an over
whelming vote and the house then
took up the section county by county.
When the bill after about three hours
had been amended and patched up to
the queens taste, MIR. Butler offered
an amendment that the act gointo ef-
feet on the 1st Of April.
Mr. Mayson wanted to know if this
would affect the salaries of those now
holding Office and if so would this be
constitutional. The question was not
answered, but the amendment was
agreed to and the bill then passed Sec
ond reading.

been the property Of some of the Ark S

exceedingly gratifying to the state
