Ny Dear Madam: That human nature
Is generally kind has been proven time and
again. Touch but the heart of the rough
est man and human nature will assert Itself.
During my eventful and unhappy life TN
couth friends never seemed to tire making
comments on my daily custom of wearing
flower. which proved anything but agree
able to me, until at last, when l stated my
reasons in the Poughkeepsie newspapers for
my daily wearing a flower, then, OF a
sudden, all levity upon the subject ceased

WHY l WEAR A FLOWER.
| am often told you must have been
disappointed in love to wear fresh-cut
flower every day." Now | want to answer
all such Inquiries right here. l have in
deed been disappointed in love, and most
seriously SO. When a little boy, my mother
used to pin her first pink OF the season
on my shirt waist | once asked her, what
makes you do So mammal" and she re-
piled, because l love you, my dear, ana
besides it looks so pretty" l was scarcely
in my teens when l sailed across the Al
lantic and came to Poughkeepsie to live
with Mr.. P. S. Rowland, who was then tie
king baker OF the city. When l kissed my
mother goodbye l vowed that would
come after her when l was twenty years
of age. | baked bread for the United states
army during the great civil war and earned
a high salary. After that frightful war
was over | left Washington to go and see
my pretty flower girl resolved TO stay
at my aunt's in New York one day at
least before | took the steamer for Europe
That steamer sailed without me. for my
aunt handed me q letter containing the
news of my mothers death and burial.
From that day to this, in sunshine or rain,
summer or winter when | find 1t possible,
always make it a point to wear fresh
flower every day instead of Grape.

HEAVY CURRENT IN RIVER.
Melting SHOWS and Rains In Noun
tains RESPONSIBLE

The melting SHOWS and heavy rains in
the mountains about the headwaters of
the Potomac river have caused a heavy
current in the river, and today the muddy
water is coming down in large volume and
is bringing quantities of rubbish from along
the shores of the river. Going down with
the current are trunks of trees, fence rails,
new and old railway ties and other articles
calculate TO do considerable damage to the
wheels of steamers that should foul any of
the logs.
THE current started running early yester-
day morning and by MONDAY il was rolling
under the bridges in great eddies. 1t had
attained velocity this morning, ii is eSti-
mated. of about five or six miles an hour,
and while ii was help to vessels bound
down. the river. 1t was sufficiently strong
to materially retard the progress of steam
ers bound up stream. Sailing vessels could
make no Roadway against 1t, and were
forced to anchor or take tug to tow them
to this city. The current was felt about
forty miles down the river. and it is ex-
pected the muddy water will reach Mary
land point and perhaps lower While the
water is reported quite high at Harper S
Ferry, the tides here have not been un-
usually high as yet.

New Telephone System for Residences

The Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone
Company has introduced new arrange
ment of telephone service for private resi-
dences 1t combines an intercommunicatlng
system of telephones for household use with
the usual public exchange service, and is
designed to supplant the old-time speaking
tube system and call bells The instruments
used are of practically the same pattern
as the regular exchange telephone. At
tached to each set of instruments is
small box equipped with series of but
tons.
BY pressing button at one telephone
any other station in the house connected with
the system can be called, and similarly the
public exchange can be obtained and city
or out-of- town call made. The instruments
are extremely neat in design and the opera
ton of the system is very simple. The
company Is having remarkable success, it
is said, in the installation of this service,
and its officials think in q short while it
will have entirely supplanted the ordinary
exchange telephone in the larger residences,
