Maine legislature in 1887, and the next
year was made speaker Of the house
This was followed by four years In
the lower house Of congress and nine
years in the senate, from which he re-
signed In 1857 to become the first Re-
publican governor of Maine. The next
year he returned to the senate and
four years later again resigned to be
inaugurated vice-president Of the Uni
ted States when Lincoln was made
president.
When Lincoln was nominated at
Baltimore in 1864 Hamlin was super
seeded by Andrew Johnson, but the
change proved unfortunate for the Re-
publican party, and the extent to
which Lincoln was responsible for 1t
Is discussed even to this late day.
The retirement Of Hamlin was a
grievous disappointment to the people
Of Maine, and they realized its conse-
quences more fully after the assassi-
nation of Lincoln, which deprived their
favorite son from becoming president
OF the United States. Shortly after his
retirement as vice-president Ham(in
was appointed minister to Spain, and
on his way to that country madc a
tour of England. He was especially
interested In the great cathedrais,
but dryly remarked that he found
more "relics than religion"
In 1869 he again entered the United
States senate, where he remained IL
years, when he voluntarily retired,
after having been almost constantly In
public life for so years. He was the
most fortunate OF all Maine politicians,
having never been defeated In his own
state but once In his many contests,
and that was the first time he was a
candidate for the United States sem
ate. He lost by single vote thrown
by a member of the legislature at
whom he had previously joked on the
score Of a bald head.
After the close of his political career
he retired to his farm in the suburbs
Of Bangor, where his remaining years
were passed as farmer. Hamlin al
ways advised young men to stick to
the farm, claiming that too many good
farmers were spoiled in many cases to
make poor politicians. It was Hannibal
Hamlin's custom on pleasant days to
work in the forenoons with his hired
men on the farm. and 10 60 to the city

"Wndhre.r

Nessrs. Broadhurst & Hobart, who

are both Dast-masters in the art OF
expressing their thoughts and ideas
with felicity and facility. In making
"Wildffre" these two men had evident
ly n pleasant task before them, as the
story OF the play is easily and pleas
antIy told, and there is no evidence IN
any of the three acts of striving or
straining for effect, either In slttla-
tons or dialogue. Naturally a play
that has to do with a racing theme
anu that introduces characters that
|are indigenous to the race track Will
of necessity employ the language q

as there fs nothing offensive in the
slang of the track and 1t is highly di-

tin" However. the dialogue is not
all slang, and the authors have shown
that when the requirements Of the
play call for the niceties OF English
speech that they are fully equal to the
task. The dialogue between the Wild
ow and her two %suitors, and the lines
given to the college professor prove
conclusively that Messrs. Broadhurst
and Hobart have n very comprehen'
sfye idea Of polite language. The
story of "Wfldfire" is clearly and con-
sisteutly worked ont. The various
characters are clean cut, ami many
distinct types are introduced to make

DELEGATES APPoINTED-Gov-
Women of Korean Court.

The visit of three Korean court la dies to Japan Is an indication of the striking changes that have resulted from the Japanse occupation of the Hermit Kingdom. Two years ago there were no fewer than 1900 la dies in waiting, now there are only 100.
 This wholesale reduction naturally created cOnSternation, and there was much lamentation among those whose services were dispensed with. Their lot. however. does not seem to have been altogether enviable. It appears that it has been the custom to take girls into the court from the age of ten and thenceforth throughout the whole period of their natural lives they were never allowed to leave the precincts of the palace. so that they lived in absolute ignorance of the outside world.

WRITING LETTERS AT NIGHT.
She Has 70 Write Them, but Never
 Deres Mail Them.

From to 10 D. m. the top-floOr girl wrote letters The next morning, i'm mediately after breakfast, she an nOunced that her time up to F o'clock would be devoted to correspondence.
 Surely, you are not going to write more letters?" said the blue-e eyed girl. You wrote a dozen last night"
 q know did," was the reply, but I am not going to send them. l never mail letter that I write at night It isn't safe I say too many idotic things then. I only write them as a kind of safety valve. There are cer- tain things that l must say to relieve my mind. After I get those surging thoughts put down on paper feel bet ter, but you couldn't hire me to mail the letters.
 'I used to mail them, but that was before they got me into so much trouble. We let our emotions run away with us when writing at night Under the witchery of a shaded gas jet We tell things that wild horses couldn't drag from us by light of day. Hopes aspirations and the history of deeds ac- complished are described in tropical language. Next morning we realize
 
 what geese we have made of ourselves, but if the letters have been mailed it is too late to do anything, and we just have to sit down and wait for the ava lanche to strike us. It has struck me so many times that it has endowed me with a little caution.
 "I still write letters at night, but only as a relief to my surcharged heart This morning I shall write to the same persons I wrote to last night, but the letters will not be even first cousins to those emotional lucubrations. These will be safe and sane and warranted innicuOus enough to be read aloud in the best regulated family without pro- ducing a ripple. I can't cay the same for the ones I tore up before going to bed"
 The blue-eyed girl looked uneasy.

 Better read it." the top-floor girl advised. You'll be pretty sure not to send it if you do"
