 Government

London, March 30.--Aftcr all the crisis. which had been proposed nnd dis cu~scd. Premier tsauith announced solution to the House of Commons to- da, which none of the prophets had suspected or even expected. The prime minister himself will assume the bur- den of the war office In addition to his other md almost crushing duties. He win resign from the House nt this critical stage. when the second reading of the home rule biii is nbout to bc taken up and will appeal for reelection to his constituents In East Fife. scot land. within u few days.
 Field Marshal Sir John French. chief ct the imperial general staff. and Get. Sir John Ewart adjutant general. de- clined to withdraw their resgnations Tn spite of the army order issued fri- day. which Niseount Haldane clgyerlg framed as a platform on which the generals might stand with consistency and honor.
 Secly Forced Out
 It thus became impossible for Col. |. F. R Seely. who was cosigner with item of the assurances to Brigadie- General Cough that the army would not be used to suppress the Ulster op. position to homo rule, to retain tho sccretaryship of war. His resignation therefore. was accepted. after he had been for some days under fire from the newspapers of hls own party which in- sisted that he must go.
 Niscount Morley of Blackburn, lord president of the council, who was part ner with Colonel Seely in drafting tho offending paragraphs of the document. stands in the same position and hls withdrawal from office Is expected to- morruNs
 These were the events in today B chapter Of the continued story which is keeping the country at the highest | pitch of excitement and suspense. Tha , pi esent situation Is remarkable in thas | the government nominally will be with cut prime minister and without a l leader in the House of Commons until | the by-eiection Is held In East Fife. The writ for the election must give eight days notice and probably will be issued tomorrow
 The only practical loss to the party meantime will be the withdrawal Of A1r. Asquiths voice from the debates. Ho will preside over the cabinet meetings and direct maneuvers in the House of Commons from an unofficial seat while Reginald McKenna, the home secretary. and Winston Spencer Churchill. first lord of the admiralty, will understudy him as House leader.

dare not kill yourself, then will I be
your executioner in the name Of the
fatherland."
She placed the muzzle of the pistol
against his breast, when the wretch
fell upon his knees, begging and en-
treating her to spare his life.
The tragic figure stood superbly
above him, gazed at him for a mo-
ment with unutterable contempt, and
then uncocked the pistol.
Ono, truly, you are not worth pow
der and shot"
She turned from him and went into
her own room, when he feverishly
sprang to the door and fastened it
behind her.
Egla listened, and when she felt
certain her husband had gone to bed,
she wrapped herself in fur cloak
and stepped out through the long
window into the night.
As day broke the tread of horses
sounded in front Of Sonnenfeld's 3
house, and few blows from the butt
end Of a musket soon broke open the
door. Hussars, with his wife at their
head, burst into the room where he
was sleeping.
"There is the spy" cried she, cold
ly; che isSmy husband, but would
see him hanged. "
Sonnenfeld, whining vainly, pleaded
for pardon, as the hussars bound his
hands behind him and dragged him
forth. His wife looked on in silence.
When the rope was placed round his
neck, and the end slung over the lime
tree, she swung herself into the sad
die Of a horse that the hussars had
prepared for her and galloped away,
followed shortly by the soldiers.
AT the taking Of Waitzen beauti-
full woman rode in front Of the
Honved battalion-it was the Jeweu

was seen in tho forefront Of the fight
when the Poles of Mazuchell's 8 regi-
ment stormed the green hill Of Ko.

there she fell riddled with bullets,
but wrapped in the standard Of her
country and staining its colors with
her blood.

the nelgnporh0od. Some OF the sol
diers were .billeted in the village, and
the general himself took up his quar-
ters in Sonnenfeld's house. The hus-
band surpassed himself in hospitality
loyalty, and attention to the wants
of his guest. Egla, who held herself
aloof, timid but inimical, one day saw
the general kick her husband out of
the door. She felt as if her heart
was crushed, then the blood rushed
to her face, but she endured in
silence.
A few days later hussars appeared
in the neighborhood and the Imperial
ist outposts exchanged shots with
them. During the night the brigade
became alarmed, for the Hungarians
approached on all sides and threatened
to overwhelm them.. Every one was
afoot, the inhabitants stood in the
street doors whispering. while cannon
and heavily armed cavalry ratified by.
Egla, who had dressed herself rapidly,
found that her husband had left the
house. She glided out after him, only
to find him by the garden hedge deep
in conversation with the general. Son
nenfeld bowed obseouiouslv as he
spoke, and the general laughed amic-
ably. That laugh seemed to Egla even
more insulting than the kick he had
given her husband few days back
She only caught detached words and
isolated phrases of the conversation;
but she gathered that while her hus-
band was assuring him of his devotion
the general was complaining that he
could gain no information even from
the poorest peasant. At sunrise an
adjutant arrived bearing sealed let
ter for the general, on reading which
he gave the order for the Imperialist
troops to withdraw to the south.
The changeful scenes of the Hun
garian winter campaign followed in
quick rotation, each day bringing con-
Trajectory reports. Egla was con-
sumed with anxiety and excitement.
and she passed sleepless nights Of
watching. only to sink wearied and
exhausted on her couch as daylight
approached, and when the bright sun
light streamed in upon her she would
awake with start as if aroused by
some horrid dream.
Business was at standstill, Son
nenfeld alone showing restless &C.
tivity. He contracted for provisions
Of all kinds for the supply Of the
Tmperialist troops, and after visits
from suspicious looking characters
would absent himself from home for
days together. Egla watched him with
anxious heart and increasing un-
easiness.

"A T the eastern extremity of the

"A long, struggling street of Macy
Nemethy, are the crumbling ruins
of deserted house. Many, many
years ago, when the Hungarian peo-
pie awoke and began to rattle their
chains, there lived in this house a
young Jewish couple, Adolf Sonnen-
field and his wife Byzantine. AL
though scarcely fifteen years of age
when her husband first took her from
her parents watchful care, she was no
half f-opened bud, but a glorious WON.
an, blooming rose of Sharon. Son
nenfeld, like many young German
townsman, was slender, fair-haired
young fellow. His wife, Egla, was a
lovely Jewess of the purest type.
Suppressed fervor lurked behind the
cold gaze of her dark, scornful eyes,
and the mobile mouth could soften
sweetly to the warming kiss or harden
with deiberation for command. Her
husband was merely practical man
OF business, of sly and cunning
disposition, called good -humored by his
friends because he was too cautious
to risk doing an injury.
One morning at breakfast having
scanned the newspaper, she COM
menced; "Adolf, every one is taking
up arms for the fatherland, old men,
boys and women. Why do you hold
backi'
care you madf" cried Sonnenfeld,
half-irritated, hslf-frightened; "what
is Hungarian liberty to mei Even if
I wanted to 60 to the war they would
only laugh at me. l don't know how

"You can learn"

nenfeld, cutting her short; eve have
soldiers enough am no hero!"
The truth came home to Ega that
her husband was no hero very short
ly. Hussars came into the village, and
then all who had hitherto held back
came forward and joined the colors.
Sonnenfeld alone was not to be seen;
he seemed to have disappeared, and
only came in sight again after the last
horseman had quilted Macy -Nemethy.
Egla found out afterwards that he
had been hidden in a recess of the.
cellar and supplied with food and
drink by the cook
When the Hungarian capital fell
and the national troops fell back on
Debriezin, Sonnenfeld felt sure that
all was over. He went about radiant
and joyful, as if he had won the vic
tory or inherited a million.
1t was not long before the First
Imperialist Light Cavalry showed
themselves in NagyNsmethy. A whole
brigade followed and pitched camp in

The Sleeping Porch Fad

IT 10 quite true that the American
people have been and are at times
subject to the craziest fads ever heard
of. but among the many useless fads
adopted in our country there occur
occasionally one or two which prove
OF general benefit to mankind. One
which has become very popular in the
past five years and is Of especial value
is the sleeping porch.
Until recently no one ever heard OF
sleeping in the open except in the case
Of consumptives or campers. Then a
short while ago some one had a fash
of genius and asked II sleeping in the
open were good for consumptives why
was 1t not good for persons In normal
health.
Gradually as the craze was accept
ed and slowly spread men and women
all over the country began to utilize
the tops of their verandas and all odd
little porches for sleeping purposes.
After awhile the Weather followers
Of the fad started to build sleeping
porches to their homes. These were
constructed more or less like ordinary
rooms. with heavy roofs and walls, but
the upper half of these walls was left
open. The fittings in some of these
outdoor rooms are as beautiful as those
in any of the indoor rooms.
The benefit Of this fad Is so patent
that it seems almost unnecessary to
explain wherein it lies. To breathe the
| free, unadulterated air all night long
| Is the most strengthening way to sleep,
and II is safe to assert that no child
brought up in a sleeping porch will
ever have a tendency to weak lungs.
Young children who are unaccustom-
ed to sleeping in the open should be
started on their sleeping porch careers
in the hottest weather and gradually
worked up to the winter weather. In
this way they become accustomed to
the gradually Increasing cold. and, far
from being dangerous for them 70
sleep In the open. it Is highly healthful,
but only under the above mentioned
conditions. To put young baby out
on sleeping porch for a cold night
without any previous experience Ia
quite enough to kill 1t.
Every suburbanite and country
mother should form the sleeping porch
habit for herself and her children dur
Ing tho summer months. No matter
how small a cottage the home may be.
II is sure to have some kind OF porch
which can be utilized for this purpose.
For the city dweller, unhappily the
sleeping porch Is an una chieva BILE
goal unless one happens to have the
means to own a house. A great many
of the brownstone houses have porches
in the rear. usually on the third or
fourth story. These can be utilized in

importance Of Cotton Grape

THE woman who takes full advan-
tage Of Grape for summer clothes
diminishes the work of the laundress
on ironing day almost by half And
this summer. when Grape Of all sorts
is in full fashion. the housewives task
of making use OF 1t is easy.
Ironing destroys the characteristic
charm Of Grape. A really beautiful
Grape frock was sent by its owner last
summer to a laundress who was un-
used to the fabric. She ironed It. 1t
came home ruined-far too large
smooth and characterless. And. Of
course. the little crinkled wrinkles that
the iron had smoothed could never be
regained.
1t is better to use heavy lace in Grape
frocks and underwear-lace that holds
it's shape and requires little ironing.
When fine lace, like valenciennes. Is
used it must be carefully ironed and
pulled into shape without ironing the
Grape.
Grape nightwear can be very attrac-
lively made Nightgowns cut by some
simple pattern, with kimono sleeves,
can be finished with a half inch hem
al the top. through which quarter inch
ribbon can be run. There can be a
bit of coarse white embroidery on the
front and sleeves. and the sleeves can
be finished with plain hens In spite
of their simplicity such nightgowns are
dainty if they are nicely made.
A new summer night garment that
can be made of Grape is an interesting
sort of pajamas for women and chill
dren-a garment all in one piece, SO
that the bothersome coat feature Ia
eliminated. These pajamas have col
lars and cuffs of colored lawn-pals
pink or bue-or of white lawn. and
these collars and cuffs must, of course.
be ironed to look well For children
these paiamas are made with full
boomers drawn into an elastic band
about the ankles.
Grape clothes of any sort should be
hung carefully so that they will re-
tain their shape. A good way to hang
Grape waists Is on hangers, covered
with strips of white cotton wound
about them.
Petticoats can be made with Grape
foundations, with fiounces of embroid-
cry and lawn or of all over embroidery.
The fiounces can be ironed after the
Grape Is dry. If the Grape is dampen-
ed when the flounces are sprinkled. It
can dry later.
Children's summer clothes can be al
most entirely Of Grape. Small boys
suits can be trimmed with cuffs and
collars Of piQue-which must be ironed
or Of colored lawn. Belts and collars
and cuffs OF colored lawn can be used
