One of the most notable weddings
of the year took place June 10 in ST.
Paul's Episcopal church. Cleveland,
Ohio, when Miss Ruth Hanna, daugh-
ter of Senator and Mrs NJ, A. Hanna,
was united in marriage with Joseph
Medill Mccormick of Chicago, son
of the United States ambassador to
Russia and grandson of the late Jo-
seph Medill.

brilliant assemblage. President

scheme.

THE ABUSE OF FUEL.

Wastefulness.
The high prices of coal caused by
the strike now ending have carried
with them salutary lesson. 1t has
reminded our people that they have
been using fuel wastefully. The nat
ural resources of the United States are
so great that something out of the
usual order is necessary to convey the
lesson that there is limit to them.
For 1t is not merely in the matter
of wastefulness that fuel has been
abused. The sanitary argument is
even stronger than that based on econ
omy. In America we indulge in hot
rooms to a degree unknown in other
parts of the world. Some of those
who lecture us on the subject probably
err on the other side. The cold rooms
of Germany and France have their
drawbacks. and there is reason to be-
lieve that they are often insufiiciently
heated. But that does not in any de-
gree excuse the hot rooms to which
Americans are very commonly sub
jected. 1t Is not the degree of cold
which is SO fatal to health as the sud
den transition from heat to cold. To
quit a room at the temperature OF
day in July and go into zero tenn

the continued political integrity OF the

English friends OF the monarchical
principle of government hold that 1t

last few months of Austro Hungarian
history and that upon 1t depends the
future of that country as federal
power. But for Francis Joseph, they

with some $4,000 900 people on each
side of the dividing line.
1t was stated above that there Is a
flaw in the Austro-Hungarian consti-
tutional structure. That is certainly
the opinion of students OF the AFFAIRS
of the dual monarchy in this country.
The defect lies in an assumption that
does not correspond to fact. 1t Is as
sumed in the constitution that the
Germans are strong enough numerical
ly and cohesively to govern in Aus
tria as the Magyars govern In Hun
gary. But the thing does not work
out that way in practice. The result
is that whereas Hungary approaches
any question affecting the joint inter-
ests of the empire solldly devoted to
the Hungarian point of view. AUSTRIA
often approaches the same question
torn asunder by racial or factionaf
dissentions. The result Is that Hun
gary usually gets the better of joint
negotiations and Austria comes ON
with loss of material advantages and
a gain of antifederal irritation.

CHAPTER XII.

A fortnight had slipped away before
Eleanor had realized that time was
passing. The days were so very much
alike. What delightful afternoons they
passed together, When the picture
stores and bookstores were no longer
new, they visited the markets and
the hospitals and the school houses
and the public institutions-places
where Eleanor had never been and
which she had longed to see. And
while they peregrinated thus, she
never wearied of her uncle's discourse.
He had sojourned in many strange
places and seen many strange things
in the course of the quarter of CEN
tury he had devoted to studying the
earth's formation, and he had facts
and anecdotes at his fingers ends.
So matters went until dinner time
then Mr.. Struthers descended from his
attic. and they all set out to dine to-
gether at some restaurant. and twice
the electrician was lured frop his
work In the early afternoon and car
ried off to one of the popular resorts
beside the sea. But Roof Park was
not neglected. Almost every evening
the moon found them there drinking
the coffee prepared by Mr.. Struthers in
his laboratory, and Notwithstanding
this beverage it invariably happened
that Uncle Phineas fell asleep before
the singing was at an end.
Over and over again Eleanor was on
the point of broaching to her uncle
the question of her future but some

Aunt Emma, he would suggest that
she paint on china or give lessons in
whist in order to satisfy her yearnings

she pondered the matter the greater
was her doubt as to what view he
would take. and yet her desire for a
definite occupation was growing daily.
On several occasions, while she and
the professor were sitting together. his
face had assumed the peculiar con-
strained expression observable when
he was i'll at ease, and he, too, had
seemed on the point of speaking of
something on his mind. Ever since his
shrinking from her proffered conf
dence, he had, unknown to Eleanor,

As in all other wrecks TINT have

to the cause, etc. Some say that the

the approaching locomotive on the

there was no watchman out.
The blame will undoubtedly be
fixed where it belongs, as thore is al
