him for her cape, and then they walked the

several times to point out to her some of
the improvements which were to be made
in the grounds the following spring. This
also was a part of the game; 1t served to
interrupt the walk; and he spoke of the
guests at the Hill, and said that it was too

III through the year have forgotten Thee
While slept my traitor conscience all at ease
IL neither word thought could ever please
Thy holy ear, bent earthward-if no plea
For pardon from my lips, Bonded knee
No deed done in Thy name-nought to app.ase
Thy righteous anger, where so mach aggreyes,
Is found, still do l feel beloved by Thee;
Stu 90 feel that if, on Christmas day,
keep Thy holy birth with kindly deed,
Receive al love with love, and simply lay
My heart upon Thy altar steps, to plead
Enough feel Thou wilt, upon this day
To every prayer that reaches Thee, acceds.

Venezuelan Adjustment
 Proceeds.
BOWEN GIVES VIEW
Misunderstanding in the German Foreign Office the Cause Of
 Delay...CustOm Revenues.

Washington, D. C.. Feb. D. Having government for the settlement of the | Venezuelan claims, Mr. Bowen was | today endeav0ring to close up negOtj- ations with Germany and Italy. A misunderstanding which has arisen in the German foreign office is at the bot tom of lhe delay now.
 It is evidently supposed hat the preliminary artic!e, of the proto' ol as prepared before the advent of Baron Won oternberg provided fer promp. payment uf the full slm clain ed in tie original ultimatlm of S340, COO, the only difference between the first and last propositions being that in llace of the clear cash payment, a> required by the uitimatum. the protocol required the immediate payment of S27 1000 for per sonal claims, and then provided for the application of 30 per cent. of the customs revenues at Port of Cabello and Laguaira till the remainder of the S34O, ,000 is paid.
 Mir. Bowen was unable to see the difference between this demand and demand for preferential treatment. It is therefore charged that after pay l ing the allies on this basis there would be nothing left for the other pow, IS. 1 It is believed he succeeiied in mp sing his view upon the allied repre- entat- ives here and it is understood this stage of the negotiations has been closed.
 At the urgent suggestion of Baron Von Sternberg his government has agreed to waive the demand for cash payment of S34O. GOO, and has accepted the proposition of its minister, that 1t receive this money from Venezuela in five monthly installments, the first in- stallent to be paid two weeks after the signing of the protocol.
 This was communicated to Mir. Bow. en this morning, and the German min- ister hopes to have his protocol ready for signing in twenty-fOur hours. Italy is somewhat annoyed at Ger many's demand for increased cash. The Italian ambassador cannot pre>ent his protocol for signature until the receipt of further instructions from his govern. ment.
 Wilemstad, Curacoa. Feb. Tt is said here that the revolutionary armies of the east and center of Venezuela which are operating against Caracas are waiting co-operation of a revolution ary army of the west to join in the at tack on the capital.
