Lewis Peabody's
ReverseS.

With q heavy heart Lewis Peabody
left his counting room at half-past
three. 1t was a period Of commercial
disaster, and for three months he had
succeeded only by desperate effort IN
keeping his head above water.
But to-day the crisis has come. Two
heavy notes have come In which he
had been unable to lift, and his busi-
ness friends had been unable to hefp
him. The result was, he had gone BY
the board.
There were other considerations
which made the blow fall more heavily
upon him. He was no longer young
man. He had passed the age OF forty
five and had a wife and four children
dependent upon him. He could scarcely
expect any help from them, since they
had been educated to extravaganza
tastes, and scarcely day passed that
be was not importuned for money to
crafty some new whim. In fact, aside
from this, he knew very little OF them.
Like most business men, his mind had
been SO engrossed by his business that
he only met his family at meals, and
not always then.
The tendency in substance Is 10
change the position of the husband and
father to the treasurer OF the famlly,
to whom all look for the means OF
gratifying their tastes.

there was no tie of affection between
Mr.. Peabody and his family. On the
contrary, being a very good-natured
msn. affections through circumstances
had stood in the way Of that full and
entire sympathy that should have
existed.
~ tremble to think how Mable and
the children will take It," he said to
himself, despondently. They have
never learned to economize. l don't
know what will become of us l an

Mr.. Peabody had himself to blame
IN mart for this state Of things He
had never made a confldant Of his wife
In business matters, and the most she
knew Of it was that her husband most
| oil of the time gave her plenty Of
money. She believed he was rich. anf
never thought of time that it woult
be necessary to economic.

house and glanced at the costly furni

he riven up, and henceforth they mus
live in a style much more humble.
This he did not so much regret 70

Walt Whitman's poetry, in spite of
the long, joggled, numbering places in
it, comes nearer to reaching out to
what the modern age is trying to be
than any other that we have. Whit
man may or may not be considered a
poet, but he has outswept the bounds
OF beauty for human life. He has seen
the whole universe in every ciod Of i.
He has Gods definition of beauty
Naturally he does not express il as
well as God does. His symbolism is
crowded with hapless places, and Gods
symbolism never misses the point but
as the ground plan for great modern
poet-an original or working poet in a
new built, new building, working world
Walt Whitman is the first and only
figure large enough that the world has
had. He had larger rcpertory of joys
joys with everyday things that any
man might have than any other poet.

! So In time of peace, the same priu.
ciples for which they fought should
be perpetuated, the same truths OF
American justice and equality should
obtain. From every part of the
land with public voice should be
declared that neither nationality or re.
| ligiou should be n bar to any civil
political or educational position. Ir
our universities, colleges and schools
besides book learning, the young mer

their country S advancement, that each
one is IL unit of the great nation. They
should not receive an education that
would make them too lazy or proud to
work il they could not find congenisl
employment and become charges on
the public or Grim rails, but an educa-
tion that viii enable them to take ad-
vantage of their environment and OBJ

From home were sent kind tokens of
remembrance and affection, words OF
remembrance, encouragement and
hope. On the battle field and in the
hospital self.sacrliiciug and devoted
women were found, binding up the
wounds OF the suffering soldier, only

and honor to those good and true wo-

loyal and patriotic charity.
The old veterans now left are getting
aged with the weight OF years, their

gratitude OF their country, and when

SEASIDE HUNT FOR GOLD

LONDON. Oct. 12.-Visitors to Mum desley- on Sea, Norfolk, have discover cd a new source of amusement,
 At this part of the coast the sea has gained rapidly on the land. and fre- quently coins are washed out of the sand. Within the last few months coins to the value of $250 have been picked uu cn the fore shore The coins comprise guncas lalf-guineas, George shillings and sixpences, and thousands of coppers.
 One coast guard says that scarcely a day has passed without his find" well repaying him for the time spent in searching. During the last winter those of the residents who were out of em- ployment spent their time in looking for this treasure trove. one man dis covered a sovereign and a half-guinea well within an hour.
 Doubtless the older coins, some of which date back to the reigns of Charles H. William and Mary, and George III. came from the numerous wrccks which took place on the coast.

FIGHT FOR DELEGATE.

There is another titanic battle com ing up, It is due to arrive at the time of the next republican convention at Juneau. It will be caused by the glori- ous desire to capture one of the two seats in the republican national con vention for each of the three judicial divisions of Alaska.
 Today the wires are kent hot with the laundering statements of leaders of Alaskan opnion Cf whose names the people of Nome w,ra hopelossly ignor- ant up 10 st ort tim, ago
 If those men are desrous merely of having their own particular divisions partake of the honor of sending dele gate to the convention they can be ac- cused of no crime. II is pleasant feature of human nature to be attached to ones own plot of earth. but when a man comes tu the conclusion that he is the best bit of the plots produce and its logical representative. and when he disturbs the political peace of a whole neighborhood to prove his su- periority he should he run in for dis orderly conduct.
 Of course, a man cannot be blamed for taking a part in the political af- fairs of his place of residence. The greater interest he takes the more worthy is he of the title of good citizen But the interest should be unselfisf enough to permit him to let the i'm yortancc of the country's welfare over shadow his own.
 Much as he might wish to see his own division represented by himself,it is possible that nine out of every ten of the people of his division are ob- livlous to the wonders to be worked thereby
