The Little Black Man.

There's little crooked black man who
has a Stealthy way
OF following the sinner wherever he may
stray;
When the sinner eats he crouches behind
the sinners chair
And when the sinner SAUNDERS the black
man fingers there.
The sinner may not know it, but other
people do
Quick. brother. look behind you! Does a
black man follow you?
The sinner often fancies that darkness
spreads about
When not cloud has risen TO shut the
bright sun out:
'Tis but the black mans shadow that
makes the sinner sad.
That fills him with fOrebOdingS when all
the world is glad
The sinner frowns, forgetting that still
the sky is blue
Quick. grumber. look behind you! Does
n black man follow you:
Perhaps the sinner never held back a
widows mite.
Perhaps he never cheated or stabbed a
man for Srite;
Perhaps his sin is merely that, in his
haste to win,
The sinner has forgotten that lack Of love
is sin;
He may not know his visage is dark, but
others do
Quick, brother look behind you! Does a
black man follow you?

with affection for Representative
Longworth and his White House
bride-elect. The situation Of this pair,
who must make love with curious eyes
ever upon them, would be trying TO
persons not we'll trained to the pub
licity that has been their portion.
Their engagement seems to have lost
none of its pleasures to them by rea-
son thereof. and few lovers have car
ried themselves more successfully, IN
i time when it is possible for man to
give a fairly good imitation Of an ass.
than MI. LongwOrth. His little smile
across the walnuts and the wine at
Philadelphia, wherein he likened his
fiancee to the sun in whose reflected
rays he stood was an adrOit stroke. 1t
was an exhibition of honest modesty,
of consummate gallantry, aplOmb and
good taste in trying circumstances
that would be hard to match. More
over, it was free and frank confess
sion that the public has many rights in
this matter which he delights TO re-
spect.
All the world. too. is giving substan-
tial evidence of its love. From foreign
governments are coming such rich con-
uncrOwned heads to receive on their
wedding days. Cuba has voted $4,000
for one gift. and no American girl ever
has spread out such dazzling show
of wedding presents as will testify the
worlds interest in the happiness Of the
lovely daughter of Theodore Roosevelt.

Why jefferson Davis?
(BOSton AdvertiSer.)

Kentucky, that dark and bloody
ground wherein Col. Watterson every
year buries the Ratchet of the Courier
Journal and grows delicious crops of
wild thyme and fragrant mint. is a
paradox among the states. Just now
Kentucky is considering suggestion
to erect statues in honor of Abraham
Lincoln and Jefferson Davis as two of
kentucky's greatest sons. This is said
TO be the purpose of a movement that
has been inaugurated by H. +. Fanny,
the artist, and a number of prominent
kentuckianS. who have interested
themselves in the project. 1t is their
desire to place the memorials in stat
uary hall at Washington. The prelim-
mary steps have been taken toward
ject in view. 1t is easy enough to See
why Kentucky should want to honor
Abraham Lincoln. But what partlc-
ular claim has Jefferson Davis to fame
except as 4 fiat and fragrant failure?
He botched everything he took up. He
was a trouble maker. good at nothing
but with his fingers in everything.
Kentucky produced many greater men.
He was in life and in history the worst
failure that the state ever produced.
The kindest way for Kentucky to treat
Jefferson Davis is to leave him at rest
in the nebulOus nigritude of nothing
ness, below the valley of oblivion.

Victor Hueo's Love Story,

l have been reading this week of one
great poet who was unable to carry out
the great ideal OF his life. The man was
Victor Hugo, and his ideal was marriage
with royal princess-Princess Helena of
Mccklenburg- Schwcrin-who, in the year
OF Queen Nictoria's coronation, was mar
ried TO the Duke of Orleans. The story is
POLITICALLY pathetic. Hugo first met the
princess at a fete given by Louis Philippe
in honor of her coming marriage. As
soon as she heard who he was She went
up to him with hand outstretched and
said: II have been waiting for this mo
I ment M Hugo: You and NJ. Victor
Cousin the great philosopher and Platon-
Isl who introduced Germany to Frances
notice. notice1 are the two Frenchmen l have
longed to see. l know your verses by
heart. and the first thing I did when I ar
rived in Paris was to visit your Notre
Dame" Such confession from SO graci-
Gus young princess was perhaps more
than enough to turn a poets head. 1
nave often heard the late Paul Meurice
tel the story. and when he told it Paul
Meurice. Hugo's great friend and faithful
Roswell always added: They met in
1S'', the princess and poet. and in 1898
Hugo produced "Ruy Bias. London Ex-

we have Uttered this word 81 richsq =
TIL there's nothing left to do;
But the love OF gold is hooking
When We turn a tender gaze
On the past when we were striving
In the poor old, rich old days.
You recall. Dick how we struggled.
ANA the price we paid was TOLL
IN that little attic bedroom
Where We burned the midnight oil.
An. those dreams of fame and fortIIne'
~ remember them always;
With crust of bread for sumner.
In the poor old. rich old days
! shant forget your tenderness
When l was very ILL.,
ANA now YOU kept the beat within
A heart that would be still:
for Wneh NE : spark was Smouldcring
You Tanned the dying blaze
10 me you Were Gods messenger
In the poor old. rich old DAYS.
Yes, DICK. we have our millions.
But they don't bring half the lows
We kne" way back in poverty
When we were ragged BOYS
Those bysOae times are calling
From the misty, far-off maze,
And q give up every dollar
For the poor old, rich old DAYS.
