THAT OLD VIRGINIA DEBT.

The state OF Virginia Grated big

West Virginia. then part OF Virginia,

loyal to mis- household. Unclr Sam
finally brought Virginia back, but not

relationship tFen was that Of one sister
to another. They were on tae sams
planq hthc household. One sister was
not accountable to apotner as daugn-
ter would b, to a mother Virginia
had lost her maternal control over West
Virginia and the latter by the very
nature OF tae situation was not even
IN hereditary line. An affection surfer
ed by one sister could not b, forced on
another That Is to say Virginia had

skirts and departed With all her b.

Vita Virginia went neg debts, and hal

West Virginia. They would have been

Virginia would taen Aaye had no more

America was part OF the Mother
Country. And the TACT tnat Virginia
was brought back 10 the parental arc-

a sigh, how was Stephen 10 know all
that had come and gone?
ESTES light step, on She passage
way, sounded at this instant; and she
came in, dressed in picturesque
brown linen blouse; her hair still
shading her forehead, like fringe of
floss silk, after the old, graceful fash
| ion.
YES" she said, brightly, when her
brother-in-law's errand was stated to
her; "of course you shall have it. l
owe you as much as that, think,
Thomas, were it only to erase from
your memory that last scene of our
parting. How defiant and insolent it
was to be sure!" and she laughed the
| sweetest OF mellow laughter. but l
insist upon it, still, that my theory was
correct; woman can work, without
becoming a drudge"
Perhaps she can," slowly and un-
| willingly admitted Thomas Martin
perhaps she can! But it didn't use to
be so, in my mothers days"
And he sighed to think Of poor Ruth,
broken down in the meridian of her
days, by the cruel necessities that drive
the wife of an American farmer to her
doom. Was it his own fault? Per.
haps it was.
Essie's thousand dollar loan was the
straw which saved him from figura-
tive drowning. He paid the interest,
bought new flock of merino sheep,
and weathered the storm.
And the next year when Essie came
to the farm to assist her sister, for
the first time she found Ruth sitting
on the piazza, and watching the little
lambs play in the sunshine with list
less, heavy eyes.
Yes" said Ruth, 81 can't work any
more. But Thomas is very kind. He
don't grudge the hired girls wages,
and he is always saying he wished he
had taken more care of me in the old
times. But it's too late now. You
were right, Essie, when you said you
wouldn't stay 'on here, and help with
the housework"
Yes said Essie, fondling the thin
hand which lay on the arm of the
rocking-chair, Il think l was right"

Of this relentless prosecution she does
not wish to bear the name of Tanner,
but desires the court to allowed her
to resume her fathers name.
The case is an unusual one. Fre.
Quently divorced w,yes are given their
maiden names back after final legal
separation. Very rarely persons have
their names changed by the court or

that the Hopkins delegates be allow.
ed to retain their seats The report
wa concurred in, and the Hopkins
people will hold their seats, unless
ousted by the action of the commit

The decision of the subcommittee
was based on the ground that the
state convention was supreme; that
the fights in the district caucuses are
not proper matters for adjustment by
the national committee, ana that It
is not the business of the national
committee to go behind the record
Of the convention as submitted TO
them

WATSON is NAMED
As Candidate for President
at Convention of PopuIists.
WAS UNANIMOUS CHOICE
All Candidates Withdrew in Favor OF
Georgian, Who Was Nominated
by Acolamatlon = Meeting
Held in Springfield, III.

Thomas E. Watson, of Georgia, for
president, and Thomas II. Tibbles, of
Nebraska, for vice president, was the
ticket nominated by acclamation Tues
day by the populist national convon-
ton in session at Springfield, Ill.
( The names Of William V. Allen, of Ne
braska, and Of Samuel w. Williams, OF
Indiana, were placed before the con-
vention for president, but before the
! list of states had been completed in
the roll call their names were with
drawn and Watson was nominated by
acclamation.
Whether Watson will accept the
nomination no one in the convention
seemed to know, and all efforts to Sc
cure some definite information from
Watson's friends failed. Watson was
quoted as saying that if the democrats
at st. Louis nominated William r.
Hearst he would support Hearst for
president
Did Platform Reaftrmed.
The platform rs adopted reaffirms
former platforms and demands the is
sue OF money by the government IN
such quantities as shall maintain sta
bility in prices, tho establishment Of
postal savings banks, abolition of child
labor the eight-hour day, and the ini-
tiative and referendum. Government
by injunction is denounced. The mon
opoy plank reads:
TO prevent unjust discrimination
and monopoly the government should
own and control the railroads and
those public utilities which in their
nature are monopolistic. To perfect
the postal service the government
should be Immediately withdrawn
| Corporations being the creatures Of
government should be subjected to
