A BRIDAL SONG.
To Miss Lottie Jones.

Out of the bosom of blossom The blossom love, that is called the rose There while the joy of thousand sum-
 mers
 All through lifetime lives and grows I will gather a song of fragrance For a lovely bride that memory shows Lit with the lights of the evening blessing She onward moved with a spirits grace Her dark eyes smiling into the future That backward smiled ons her lovely face, Ns And while her srpses leaned together Holding the misty veil in place; There, like an angel crowned and cap
 tured,
 Memory holds her in sweet embrace.

Under the Social Crust,

At the Santa Fee depot In Topeka
last Thursday couple were waiting
for No. l. She was a middle-aged
woman, who wore a rusty coat and hat
that had seen service for number of
winters, and he was workingman
whose clothes and face gave evidence
that. he had left his work to see her off.
They waited for some time, but the
train was late. and he had to go to his
work. The poor can't take much time
to their goOd-bys. So he rose to go and
she rose and threw her arms about his
neck. He bent over, kissed her and
then pressed his cheek to hers in a long
embrace while her frame shook with
sobs. Then he hurried out, hiding his
face as much as possible And she sat
there crying quietly.
Beside her was a woman dressed in
rich furs who could not keep back her
tears, and all about were people who
looked at the poor woman sympathet-
ically. At last one nicely dressed wom-
an left her seat, sat down beside the
Borrowing traveller, put her arm about
her and sought to comfort her, None
>of these people knew the poor woman.
but they all knew what parting meant
they all knew what sorrow meant

isn't so much difference In people aft

RIVALRY OF WESTERN TOWNS.

Seattle, Tacoma, Spokane, Portland,
throb with enterprise and rivalry. Nor
can they be called boom towns-not
now. Ten years ago they were In
the very heyday Of municipal intoxi-
cation, expanding in most extraordi-
nary manner; and they were shortly
sorry for their excuses. The crisis
Of 1893 left them all PROSTATE, their
rich men poor, pretentious buildings
half completed, and boom additions to
towns behind for taxes. Unlike the
mushroom towns Of early Kansas,
however, they had genuine reasons for
being, and superb natural strength
that brought speedy convalescence, so
that to-day the visitor finds them rev
cling in the full joy Of life. There is
something immensely attractive in the
pugnaclty with which Seattle ad-
Vances her fine new shipyard, while
Tacoma counters with a low death rate
and enormous wheat shipments, and
Portland opens her batteries with an
unequaled fresh water harbor. One
soon enters into the spirit Of the ami
mated population combats and climate
battles and prevalence-of-crime skir-
mishes. With what enthusiasm Spo-
kane acquiring a new -four mill, hurIs
1t, f1guratively, in the teeth of her ri
walls! FairhaVen offers battle with it's
salmon industry, and no one who visits
Washington can escape the belligerent
banner Of Everett-the smoke from
her manufacturing chimneys. Every
city on the coast has made up Its
mind firmly, If not quietly. to become
the metropolis of the West.
Oftentimes the rivalry has It's hu-
morous side. While in Seattle heard
much Of Mount Rainier, the splendid
volcanic peak which rises cloud-White
southeast by south Of the city. It Is
one of the most magnificent of Ameri-
can mountains, now set apart, with
wise forethought, as national re-
serve. The people of Seattle are proud
Of Mount Rainier; they regard it as
special Seattle attraction. When I
reached Tacoma one Of the first things
to which my attention was called was
Mount Tacoma, rising gloriously in the
southeast. 1t struck me that it bore
a singular resemblance to Mount
Rainier. and said as much.
at Is sometimes called Mount
Rainier" said my informant; "but if
you call it anything but Mount Ia
coma over here you can't get anything
to eat"
And SO the mountain is the dear
scenic possession, under separate
names, Of two cities.-Century.

LIVING IN SkYSCRAPERS.

Lofty and Cozy Quarters of Young Art
Students ia the East.
Two young artists have taken to liv-
ing in the top floor Of one Of the high
office buildings of New York near the
Battery. They predict that these top
floors, overlooking a magnificent piano.
rama, will become bachelor apart
ments, and that even families will
seek to live there rather than In Har-
lem.
1T will be great In summer" said
one Of the artists to a Detroit Tribune
reporter. Throw up the window and
in comes a never-failing breeze right
off the bay, straight from the ocean,
salty, fresh, invigorating. We can
take our morning plunge in the pure
salt water Off the Battery. We are
close to all the piers leading to the
seaside resorts, and when we alight
from Coney Island or Long Branch
steamer, we have only q few steps to
go to reach our home. Groceries are
cheap In this part of the city and the
best markets are close at hand. Our
fresh fish, you might almost say,
comes right out Of the river at our
doors. We can see our oysters being
taken out Of the sloops, and within a
few minutes walk we can reach Full
ton market and Washington market
and get the pick of what they have
before the people from uptown arrive,
We are only fifteen minutes from 23d
street, nearer In time than If we lived
in Harlem, and we have the cars and
trains all to ourselves. One elevator
runs to accommodate us at night in
this big building. The other tenants
never bother us by day. The building
is really quieter than would be q large
apartment house. The rent Is NO more
than we would have to pay for similar
accommodation uptown in some locau-
ty without individuality, and where
there would be no view, and few of
the advantages we now enjoy. The
only place in this neighborhood that
afords view in any way comparable
with that we enjoy Is the Heights Of
Brooklyn. But then to live there Won
would have to become a Brooklvn,te
ana the houses there have none Of tho
accommodations Of those In Manbot
tan and the convenience to elevated
ana street cars Is not comparable,
