guided by any decision they might
reach. The counselors to man re-
fused to sacrifice their girlish ruler, and
the people yociferously ratified the res
olution. But the princess would not al
low them to send an answer &c Ak
phain until she could see q way clear
to save her people in some other man
ner. An embassy was sent to tie Prince
Of Dawsbergen. His domain touched
Graustark on the south, and he ruled
a wild, turbulent class Of mountaineers
and herdsmen. This embassy sought
to secure an Endorsement Of the loan
from Prince Gabriel sufficient to meet
the coming crisis. Gabriel, himself
smitten by the charms Of the princess,
at once offered himself in marriage,
agreeing to advance, in case she ac-
cepted him, 2O000,000 gavvos at rath-
er high rate Of interest fer fifteen years.
His love for her was so great that he
would pawn the entire principally for
an answer that would make him the
happiest man on earth. Now. the trou-
bled princess aDborred Gabriel. OF the
two, Lorenz was much to be preferred.
Gabriel flew into rage upon the re-
ceipt Of this rebuff and openly avowed
his intention to make her suffer. His
infatuation became q mania, and up to
the very day on which the countess
told the story he persisted in his ap
peals TO the princess. In person lie had
gone TO her to plead his guilt on his
knees, Sroveling at her feet. lie went
so far as to eXclaim raGly IN the pres

She allowed her hand to lie Imply in

Slowly he raised his eyes to study her
face, finding that hers were closed, the
semblance Of a smile touching her lips
as if they were in happy dream.
The lips! The lips! The lips! The
madness Of love rushed into his heart;
the expectant hand was forgotten; his
every hope and every desire measured
itself against his discretion as he look

Seeds and Skins of Small Fruits.


There are many people who cannot:
eat small fruits on account Of the
seeds and skins, because they prove so
irritating to the stomach. In all sucn
cases the fruit should be thoroughly
ripe; then press it through a small
wire sieve or strain through q thin
cloth; then you get all there is Of use
the liquid. Blue and other berries with
tough skins may be cooked little to
start the juice, then strain and get rid
Of seeds and skins. Never put waste
into q delicate stomach when possible
to avoid it. Cherry stones and grape
seeds are a menace to health, and chill
dren should be taught how to neatly
reject them.-Physical Culture.

THF WIRES
SD cial Committee Report to
 Council

A select committed of the council re- ported by J. R. VanCleve. at the meet ing last night, on an investigation made into the condition of the wires of the light and telephone companies. His committee had gone over the ground with MT. James, of the electric light company, and an understanding as to what was proper had been arrived at. The parts of the system that were most at fault would be attended to im- mediately and tho balance would be put in shape as soon as longer days and better weather made it feasible,
 The exterior system O. the railroad company was in good shape, but much of the indoor wiring was defective. It would receive immediate attention.
 Mir. VanCleve had only been able to see Mir. Meyers for few minutes be- fore he left on the boat. He had claimed that his franchise was perpetual, that there was no provision in it stipulating that the plant must be kept in opera ton and tha. his wires were in as good condition as those of the other compa- nies. If that is the case the only re- course the council can have in case of further trouble is to demand the re- placement of wires, when necessary; to sue them if DO attention was paid to the demand and to recover the expense by suit.

GRADES
Councilman Van CleVe's
 Report

All the oouncilmen were present at the meeting last night, excepting Kalem. It was a long session and much l business was transacted. The monthly ] bi Is were referred to the finance com mittee and those reported by the eom- mittee were passed for payment.
 Mir. Van Cleve reported for the street committee, recommending that the Hislop grade be established officially with the exception of certain places on Broadway. especially on Third avenue, where the higher present grade should be maintained on account of the high tides that occasionally flood the street The intersections of State street and Third and Tenth avenues should be lowered a foot and the intersection of State and Thirteenth avenue nine tenths of a foot. The width of all side walks in the business portion of the city should be 10 feet and in the resi- dence districts 6 feet. Crosswalks should be on the grade line and F feet wide.
 Telephone, telegraph and light poles should be put in the alleys wherever possible, and when they carry a big load should be strung on crossbeams reaching from poles on each side of the alley. This will mean the removal of an the poles from the streets, but those on the avenues must necessarily be maintained.
 NIr. Van Cleve's report was illustrat- ed by number of carefully prepared charts and drafts that must have in- volyed many hours of painstakiug work to make.

BIG TRIP
COnstantine's Long Journey
 to Arctic Ocean

The Canadian government has re- ceiyed from Supt. Constantine of the Northwest mounted police, report of the journey he made to Mackenzie river, where he established a post.
 The journey from Athabasca to Fort Macpherson, a distance of 1854 miles, was accomplished pa tly by canoe and and partly by steamer. The party left Athabasca on June lst and ar rived at Macpherson on July l4th. Supt. Constantine does not consider Macpherson a suitable place for post, as the whalers have left Herschell isl- and and gone to Baillie island, 300 miles east. He says the only way that the revenue can be protected in these waters is by ao armed revenue cutter with a strong crew.
