There is no use in analyzing the plot
or discussing the faults of a story of
this kind. A romance Of the Dumas
type is either good or no good. It
either carries you through to the last
page with a galIop and a hurrah or
it roes not carry you at all. 1.-The TWO
Captains" is one of the former kind.
Both its love scenes and its meIodrama
are full Of magnetism. Mr. Brady need
not have written the rather tart pre-
face, in which he takes a half-serious
fling at the reviewers. The story is
good enough to speak for itself.

TO IDAHO, MY SWEETHEART.

A sweetheart one could live for, one
could die for if one must,
And feel it satisfaction even when ones
bones were dust;
She is altogether lovely, like that
virtuous one of old,
For all her speech is silver and her
silences are gold,
Her strength, because her heart is
pnre, is as the strength of ten:
She can nourish on her bosom mighty
race of men.
She's beauty, too, your sweetheart,
when after her repose,
She comes to give you greeting clad in
trailing gowns of rose.
But when the shadows lengthen and
the hours of day grow late.
She takes her crown of glory, dons her
purple robes of state;
All! Then she is radiant, glorious; yes,
divinely so;
She is all your soul could wish for
your sweetheart, Idaho,
Mrs. Adelaide Becker, Soldier, Idaho.

FOLKISM.

Epigrams taken from the address of
Gov. Folk made in the recent Ohio
campaign.
You are bondmen now but you will
be free.
Does Cincinnati belong to the gang
or to the people?
It is easier for an official to serve
the gang than to serve the people.
Good men are divided-bad men are
united.
When good citizens attend their civic
duties their civic energy is represented
in good officials. When they are care
less their slothfulness is represented
by corrupt officials.
No party has right to ask support
because it is that party.
Partisanship is good thing, some
times: but patriotism is better thing
all the time.
1t is more honorable to correct evils
than to bear them in ignoble silence.
Public evils can not be cured by hiding
them.
Any man who has not the courage to
show his colors is not good citizen.
Americans, our fathers broke off the
bossism of George III. Today you of
Cincinnati are facing the bossism of
another George.
There is more aggressive patriotism
in our large cities than anywhere else.
Make the patriotism aggressive as the
rottenness.
There is more patriotism in giving
ones time to betterment of civic con-
ditions than in barring the breast to the
bullets of the public enemy. The
greatest obstacle in the way of good
government is the inactivity of good
citizens.
