An Indian Summer Day.

The late John J. Ingalls, drew
a beautiful word picture of an
Indian Summer day. as follows
1T is a most entrancing morn
ing. | have just come in from a
stroll in the sunshine to and fro
along the stone walk to the north
gate. The sky is cloudless, and
the wind just strong enough to
turn the mill slowly in the soft
air. The smoke from the chin
neys rises straight to the zenith
and dissolveS in the stainless
blue. In the deep. distant valley
the river glimmerS through d
dim silver mist woven with shift
ing purple like the hues which
CLEAN on the breast Of dove.
Undulating along the horizon,
the bluffs rise like translucent
crags of violet, and from the city
beneath columns Of vapor and
fumes from engine and factory
ascend, accompanied by a con
fused and inarticulate murlnur
like the whispers of pain and
protest. During the night it
raincd, and the grass Of the lawn
is green. 1t glitters and sclntll-
lates with the transitory gems
of the frost. Here and there are
disappearing ridges of the snow
from the storm of Monday, and
in the hollows of the grove
the brouze leaves Of the oaks are
piled high, to be dispersed by
the next gale, like the ruined
gold of spendthrift, or the van
ishing hopes of men.

Thousands of people in St,

Thursday. One square meal a
year is not very satisfying no
matter how filling. In country
like this. where 80 Guch work

upon our system Of political econ
omy that these people must be
fed by charity, instead of supply
ing them with the means to pro

The plea of guilty entered by
the Mcnamara brothers. who
had been on trial at Los Angeles
for the past two months for the
dynamite outrage that wrecked
the Los Angeles Times building
aed caused the death of twenty
one people, is certainly startling.
Organized labor will have to bear
the brunt of this terrible deed.
now that it has been confessed
to by men who stood high up in
the organization. OF course,
union labor as an organization,
cannot be condemned for this
crime. but it will take many
years for it to outlive the odium
cast upon it by the Mcnamara 5.

would come altogether from the

would simply take it out of the

tested this proposition again and
again, with always the same re

with imported goods. home labor
was reduced TO the lowest DOS

manufacturer did not shut down

of tariff reform. as experience

After we left Balboa we saw

said the interior was very pretty

and small boats brought various
cargoes to go abroad. At CalIao
we got into a row boat and were
transferred from one steamer to
the other, the "Oronsa. We
were there several hours but did
not go to the shore, as we had to

very rypretty city. The navy yards
are there and also a large round

ding be delayed until she was 16. His
lordship was impatient, and obtained
a marriage license, whereupon his
friends caused his arrest for lunacy.
The charge failed in court the next
day, and June 1, 1895, the couple were
married in San Jose.
Troubles followed thick and fast.
His lordship's income was cut to about
$1,000 a year, and he successfully tried
the occupations Of jewelry salesman,
ranching, and a once reported to
have driven a Tacoma brewery wagon
to help out his finances. besides engage
ing in other mental occupations.
He discovered after his marriage
that he had acquired a tartar of a
mother-in-law in the person. Of Mrs.
Mary Mooney, Of San Francisco.
Mother-in-law and his lordship did not
agree. the result being threatened
horsewhippings and many scandalous
scenes in various hotels on the coast,
with the determined. Mrs. Mooney as
the agsressor.
For a Year Or so the married life Of
young Douglas was a stormy one, but
in 1901, after a child had been born,
the actress-Wife visited England, and
was reconciled to the marquis and
family.
