higher up" and asked the manager
of the store, whom he knew, to in
troduce him. Bigelow was then a
junior at Harvard, and the reputation
of Harvard juniors is not SO terribly
good that the managers of big Boston
stores are throwing their best and
prettiest salesgirls into their COM
pany without knowing something
about them. However, the manager
had faith in this junior, and Bigelcw
and Miss REESE met.

others of the past that any names
might do. This time, however, the
young man happens to be an Adams,
which is very, very important among
Boston names, as everyone knows.
He is only an Adams by the second
marriage of his mother, however, and
retains his fathers name Of Clapp-
William F. Clapp in full, age %, son

Miss Ellen Gertrude REESE; her father
is simply a machinist at the govern
ment arsenal in Watertown.
1t is the most complete of romances,
for it grew out of another of the same
kind, in which Miss Reise's twin sis
ter was one of the principals. So,
to tell it correctly, the first romance
must be referred to first.
The father of the twin girls, Mary
j. and Ellen Gertrude Reise, was a
sergeant in the army, stationed in San
Francisco, when the girls were born,
u years ago. He was a good soldier,

From there the courtship was con
tinued, and n day. not long ago, Miss
Ellen Gertrude REESE resigned from
Jordan & Marsh's and took the train to
Providence. There she was met by
young Clapp, and they were married.

he agreed to the trip around the
world. but he had a trick up his sleeve
all the time.
To Mary Reise alone he confided it.
They would be married on the sly
and go on the round-the-world trip
together. 1t would be a fine honey
moon!
At first the young woman objected, but
love finally conquered, and, on the 80
of August, 1899. in a little Episcopal
mission church out in RuXbury, they
were wed by Rev. Edward l.. Atkinson.
You see, even to the name of the clergy
man this was a true Boston romance, for

The bride was on her vacation from
the store. and went to Newport to spend
it. So did young Bigelow. On Septem-
Der l it was time for him TO start n his
trip around the world, and Otto San
Francisco he went. From there he and
his bride telegraphed the Bigelows in
! Boston that the wedding had taken
| place and also informed the brides
parents. Then they went aboard the
vessel to Japan and let the families do
all the worrying.
Of course there was something ter
rible in the way of worrying around the
Back Bay. Also out in Watertown. But
bv the time Mr.. and Mrs. Bigelow, Jr.,
got home the tempest had died down,
the Bigelows and the ReiseS were SO
glad to get the youngsters home that
they forgot all about being angry, and
the matter was settled.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bigelow went to Nor
wich; Conn, to live, happy and content
ed. and the brides twin sister, Ellen
Gertrude, was invited to pay them a
visit.
This was the beginning of the second
romance, the one that at present has
Boston upside down.
Around the corner from the Bigelow
dovecot at Norwich lived Samuel G..
Adams. a rich Bostonian, member of the
big wool firm and very blue-blooded. He
had married, as a second wife, Mrs.
Clapp, a wealthy Boston widow, who had
one son, a fine, handsome young fellow,
William F. Clapp, freshman at Harvard.
Young Clapp knew young Bigelow,
and went around to see him. He also
saw Mrs. Bigelow's twin sister-and-
well. here was a scion of a Boston fam
lily and a Jordan G Marsh shopgirl.
The result could have been only what it
was. They fell in love.
Leaves College to Earn Living.
All during the summer the courtship
went on, and by the time young Clapp
was about to return to Boston with his
parents everything was ripe for another
romance. The young people said moth
ing about their affection to anyone,
and nobody but the Bigelows knew of
it. Ellen Reise went back to her place
in the big store, and young Clapp went
back to Harvard, for, of course, he
was a Harvard student.
But he could not wait to graduate, so
he left college at the close of his fresh
man year, little more than a boy. He en-
tered a brokers' Office in State street, but
soon left there and obtained an impor-
tant position with the New England

liner, some weeks since produced some
interesting statistics in re~futation of
the writer's contention that Mississippi
was not paying the attention to mule
breeding that she should, and that of
the ten thousand mules needed in build
ing the Panama canal, Mississippi
would not be able to furnish any of them.
Here are extracts from the article that
are well worth reading:
"Our friend Blakeslee widely misses
the mark in his diagnosis. Mississippi
as a mule breeder as demonstrated oy
the census of 1900, ranked seventh
and led every State in the West
except Missouri, Illinois and Kansas,
and every State in the South except
Tennessee and Texas. This condition
has vastly advanced in the last five
years, and we have no doubt she now
leads both Kansas and Illinois in this
industry, and is close upon the heels of
Tennessee, being entitled to at least
fifth place as a mule breeding State.

low reported mule colts under W

The Sleep Of Plants.

The leaves of the COMMON clover give
. good example of what Linnaeus call
ed the sleep Of plants. At sunset the
two side leaflets of each set of three
bend forward until their edges nearly
meet, when the middle leafet droops
downward to touch them and completes
the picture of repOse.
Some of the bean family assume as
perfect pOstures of rest. The wistaria
hangs the end and central leaflet of
each cluster directly downward, point
ing to the earth, while the side leaflets
drop In double rows. back to ba1l. The
leaves of the scarlet rune have II
similar habit. The willow foliage
twists into IA position that Is almost
vertical, and the leaves of the vine are
raised slightly at their edges and de-
pressed toward the center.
All such sleeping foliage Is singularly
rigid and retains the position which it
has assumed. This persistence is due
to the presence of water in the tissues
of the leaves. At dawn Of day the
plants awaken, and their leaves re-
sumo their ordinary attitude.

Omaha, April &C. f. Tullis was
arrested at Oconto. Custer county. by
Deputy United States Marshal james
Allan IN the charge of using the
United States mails 10 order certain
counterfeit money for the purpose to
defraud. 1t Is alleged that connected
with him in the enterprise Is one Ed.
ward Penn Of Broken Bow. who IL
also named In the warrant Of arrest
issued by Urited States Commissioner
Anderson. IT was ascertained that a
package o: supposedly counterfeit
money had been forwarded to the par.
ties by express and that Tullis and
Penn had demanded that they be per.
mitted TO examine the package be.
fore paving the c. o. d. charges.
amounting to $3.50 or more. 1t was
then found that the package, instead
OF containing counterfeit money. was
simply a neatly wrapped package. the
sole contents OF which was a block OF
wood about the size of a bank note,
Tullis and Penn refused to take the
package from the express office. and
thus was the crooked part OF the worl,
discovered.

The Tower of Pisa.

The famous leaning tower OF Pisa IL
q campanile or bell tower. The build
ing, which is cylindrical In form, Is
1917 feet high and fifty feet In diameter,
made entirely Of white marble. 1t is
called the leaning tower from the fact
that 1t inclines some thirty feet from
the perpendicular, and it Is not general
ly known that this inclination, which
gives the tower such Il remarkable ap-
pearance was not Intentional. AT the
time it was about half done the error
in measurement was perceived. 1t was
guarded against by the use or extra
braces in the further construction OF
the building and nh adaptation of the
stone in the highest portion. There
are seven bells on the top Of the tower.
the largest of which weighs 1000
pounds, and these are so placed as to
counteract as far as possible the lean

starts Fight at st. Louis.
Chicago, April 1.-THE Chicago and
Eastern Illinois Railroad company has
given notice Of Its intention to absorb
the switching charge on all carload
freight destined to the switching dis.
tricts In st. Louis. This charge va.
ries from SO to s. per car and the com
pany's action will have the effect Of
reducing carload rates to that extent.
1t Is expected that the action OF the
Chicago and Eastern Illinois will be
quickly followed by all the other lines
leading from Chicago to st. Louis. It
may be. however, that there will be
reprisals in other directions and. in.
stead of following the action of the
Chicago and Eastern Illinois. the 9th.
er lines may reduce rates to other
competing points in an effort to drive
the Chicago and Eastern Illinois line
out Of Its aggressive position on st.
Louis business.
Ever since the great war on grain
rates last winter from Omaha to New
Orleans and to the Atlantic seaboard,
there has been much friction between
western trunk lines. It is feared that
the movement may lead to a general
break up in western railroad rates on
competing traffic.

One of the things which comes be-

prohibiting the sale of cigarettes and

cigarettes or cigarette papers to any

in this than there would be in prohib-

and coffee have ruined more stomachs
and driven more people to despair in
one year than cigarettes have in ten
