Commercial Growth Not Wanted.
To the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor OF The Star:
Noting with some alarm the expressed
intention of some of our business men to
make extraordinary efforts for the pur-
pose of raising our population to half a
million during the next ten years, even
by presenting sites for and encouraging
the building of manufactures here in
large numbers, | hereby make my pro-
test against the making of this beautiful
Capital city smoky commercial center
and believe this voices the sentiment of
the majority of the jewellers here.
While we believe in a healthy, clean
normal growth of Washington as all
right and satisfactorily continue the rep
utation of our city beautiful, many man
ufactories would damage such reputa-
ton. A. l.. SWARTWOUT.

he couiu not utter a word, and he thought to
himself: The queen will be angry at my
silence"
But the queen still smiling and did
not look angry.
She spoke first and said in voice sweeter
than music:
BE welcome and sit down."
And with finger which looked like ray
of light she beckoned him to some purple
cushions on the floor.
Bathasar sat down, sighed big sigh, and
seizng hold of cushion with each hand, he
exclaimed hurriedly:
Madame | wish these two cushions were
giants and your enemies SO that l might
wiring their necks.'
And, speaking thus, he squeezed the cush
ions hard in his cenched fists that they
burst, letting out cloud of white down. One
of the little feathers whirled round in the air
for some time and then alighted on the
queens neck.
my lord Balthasar," said Balkis, blushing,
why do you want to kill giants?'
Because love you," said Balthasar.
Tell me- said Balkis, lis the water of

Then all of sudden:
my lord, they say that you in love

"Oh! Madam, how could that be?"-and

place. reeking brutes fighting with fists or
knives for cup of fermented drink, while
others slept with closed fists, under the tables.
Balkis percevng some salt fish hanging
from the rafters of the roof said to her COM
panion:
q should like to eat of that salt fish with
pounded onions"
Balthasar ordered the DISH but when she
had finished eating, he discovered that he had
taken money with him. He took little con-
and thought they could go out without
paying But the innkeeper barred their way,
calling him slave and calling her a donkey,
at which Balthasar knocked him down with
his fist Some of the men, with uplifted
knives, rushed upon the two strangers. But
the black king, Selling hold of an enormous
pestle used for pounding Egyptian onions,
crushed two of his aggressors and compelled
the others to retreat. He felt Balkis by his
side, which made him invincible. The friends
Of the innkeeper, not daring to approach,
hurled at him, from the back of the shop, oil
jars and cups, lighted lamps, and even the
enormous brass pot wherein whole sheep
was stewing. The pot fell with a crash on
Balthasar's head and split It, He was
stunned for an instant, but, gathering up his
strength, he hurled the pot back with such
vigor that the weight of it was increased ten
fold. The crash of the falling metal was
mingled with horrible groans and with the
shrieks of the dying. Taking advantage of
the terror of the survivors and fearing lest
Ballkis should be hurt, Balthasar took her in
his arms and ran with her through the dark
and deserted streets
Il love thee" whispered the queen.
And now the moon, peeping from behind a
cloud, revealed, in Balkiss half-cosed eyes, a
ray of light damp with tears. They were 60
ing down the dry bed of torrent All of a
sudden Balthasars foot slipped on some moss
and they fell down holding another in a
tight embrace 1t seemed to them as if the
world of the living had ceased to exist And
when at dawn gazelles came to drink from the
hollows of the stones, the lovers were still
wrapped in oblivion.

But she got up and away laughing a
clear-rngng laugh.
That evening Balthasar had supper with
the queen of Sheba and drank palm wine.
$50, really, said Balkis during the supper,
Queen Candace is not fair of face as l
ann"
Queen Candace is black" answered Bal
thasar.
Balkis glanced at Balthasar and said:
''One can be black and comely
"Balkis!" exclaimed the king.
He could say no more Selling her in his
embrace he held the queens forehead beneath
his lips. But he saw that she was weeping.
Then he spoke to her in a low, caressing,
lightly singing voice, nurse would to her
babe and he called her his little flower and
his little star.
Why dost thou weep" said he, "and
what must do that thou mayest weep no
more? If thou hast any wish, tell it me, and
l shall do even thou wishest"
She had ceased weeping and now she was
in dreamy mood. For long time he pressed
her to tell him her wish.
At last she said:
Il wish to feel fear"
AS Balthasar did not seem to understand,
she explained to him that for long time she
had been wishing to be exposed to un-
known danger but that she could not, because
both the men and the gods of Sheba we're
watching over her.
And yet she added with a sigh, Il should
so like to feel during the night the cold and
delightful thrill of fear go through my flesh!
I should like to feel my hair stand on end!
Oh! how delightful it would be to be afraid, "
She threw her arms round the neck of the
black king and said. in the voice of a beseech-
ing child:
Here is night coming down upon U.S. Let
us both go through the town in disguise. Will
you not Gomez"
He assented and she, running to the win
dow, looked through the lattice into the public
square.
