and protect; was intolerant towards
any who sought to touch or question

ton.
Still the Simple Gentleman.
But it was his home that chiefly
held his thought now. He had not
changed towards his friends through
all the long years of public care and
engrossing business. An old comrade,
who had come in his rough frontier
dress all the way from far Kentucky
to Philadelphia to see the president,
had been told that Washington had
become pulled up with the Importance
of his station, and was too much of
an aristocrat to welcome him In that,
G:x.5."
IT, the old soldier was not daunt-
ed, pressed on to make his call, and
came back to tell his friends how the
president and his lady had both seen
him and recognized him from the WIN
dow, and had hurried to the door to
draw him cordially in. 81 never was
better treated" he said. II had not
believed a word against him; and l
found that he was old Hoss' still"
Twas the same with his neighbors,
and with strangers too. He was the
simple gentleman of the old days. A
strolling actor, riding Mount Vernon
way on day in July, stopped to help
| a man and woman who had been
thrown from their chaise, and did not
recognize the stalward horseman who
galloped up to his assistance till the
overturned vehicle had been set up
again, they had busted each the other $
coat, and the stately stranger, saying
he had had the pleasure of seeing him
play in Philadelphia, had hidden him

dressing General Washington" ex-
claimed the astonished player. IAN
odd sort of introduction, Mr.. Bernard, .
smiled the heated soldier; "but am
pleased to find you can play so active
part in private, and without a
prompter."
Those who saw him now at Mount
Vernon thought him gentler with lit
tie children than Mrs. Washington
even, and remembered how he had al
ways shown like love and tender
ness for them, going oftentimes out of
his way to warn them of danger, with
a kindly pat on the head, when he
saw them watching the soldiers in the
war days. Now all at Mount Vernon
looked forward to the evening. That
was the children's hour"
He had written sweet Nelly Custis

He had kept his overseers under his
hand all the time he was president;
had not forgotten to write to DR..
Young upon methods of cultivation;
had shown the same passion as ever
for speeding and regulating at its best
every detail of his private business;
but matters had gone i'll for lack of
his personal supervision. He was
obliged to sell no less than fifty thou
sand dollars worth of his lands in
the course of four or five years TO de-
fray the great expenses he was put to
in the presidency and the cost of
bringing his estate into solvent shape
again. He did not try to begin anew;
he only set things in order, and kept
his days serene.
Another Spark of War.
A spark of war was kindled by the
new ADMINISTRATORS dealings with
France, and Washington was called
once more to prepare for command,
should the fighting leave the sea and
come ashore. But formal war did not
come. The furry only kept him a lit
tie nearer the movements of politics
than he cared to be. He was the,
more uneasy to see how the Demo-
Gratis bore themselves in the presence

approved the laws passed against
aliens and against those who should

Abuse Is Regretted.
~. az R1Ch1J RcJA~EES

At last the storm cleared; the bitter
months were over; men at the ports
saw at length how much more freely
trade ran under the terms of the
treaty, and remembered that, while
they had been abusing Jay and
maligning the president, Thomas
Pinckney had obtained a treaty from
Spain which settled the Florida bound
airy, opened the Mississippi without re-
striction, secured a place of deposit at
New Orleans, and made commerce
with the Spaniards as free as COM
merce with the French.
The whole country felt a new i'm
pulse of prosperity. The "paroxysm
of the fever was over, and shame
came upon the men who had so vilely
abused the great president and had
made him wish, in his bitterness, that
he were in his grave rather than in
the presidency; who had even said
that he had played false in the Revo-
luton, and had squandered public
moneys; who had gone beyond threats
Of impeachment and dared to hint at
assassination! They saw the end of
his term approach, and would have
recalled their insults. But they had
alienated his great spirit forever.
Becomes Flat Federalist.
When he had seen parties forming
in his cabinet in the quiet days of his
first term as president, he had sought
to placate differences; had tried to
bring Hamilton and Jefferson to a
cordial understanding which should be
purged of partisan bias, as he meant
his own judgments to be; had deemed
parties unnecessary and loyalty to the
new constitution the only standard of
preferment to Office But he had come

intimacy very few could know. Now
she was to be married, to his own
sisters son, and upon his birthday,

to wear the grand embroidered uni

at her wedding, but he shook his head
and donned instead the worn buff and
blue that had seen real campaigns.
Then the delighted girl told him, with
her arm about his neck, that she loved
him better In that
Death Of Washington.
The quiet days went by without in
cident He served upon a petty jury
of the county when summoned; and
was more than content to be the SIM
pie citizen again, great duties put by,
small ones diligently resumed.
Once and again his anger famed at
perverse neglects and tasks Ill done.
Even while he was president, he had
stormed to find his horses put to the
chariot with unpublished hoofs upon q
day Of ceremony.
But old age, and the consciousness
of lifework done, had added serenity
now to his self-control; and at last the
end came, when he was ready.
On the 18th Of December, 1899, he
was chilled through by the keen winds
and cold rain and sleet that beat upon
him as he went his round about the
farms. He spent the evening cheerful
ly, listening to his secretary read; but
went to bed with gathering hoarse-
ness and cold, and woke in the night
sharply stricken in his throat.

but the disease was already beyond
their control. Nothing that they tried
could stay it; and by evening the end
had come He was calm the day
through, as in time of battle; know
ing what betided, but not fearing it;
steady, noble, warrior figure to the
last; and he died as those who loved
him might have wished to see him die.
The country knew him when he was
dead: knew the majesty, the nobility.
the unsullied greatness of the man
who was gone, and knew not whether
to mourn or give praise. He could
not serve them any more; but they
saw his light shine already upon the
future as upon the past, and were

to another mind in the hard years
that followed.
Il shall not, whilst / have the hon
or to administer the government,
bring man into any Office of conse-
quence knowingly" he declared in the
closing days of 1895, whose political
tenets are adverse to the tenets which
the general government are pursuing;
for this, in my opinion, would be a
sort of political suicide; and he left
the presidency ready to call himself
very fatty "Federalist"-of the par
ty that stood for the constitution and
abated nothing of it's powers.
You could as soon scrub blacka-
more white" he cried, "as to change
the principle of protest Democrat
The will leave nothing uninterrupted to
overturn the government of this coun-
try"
Affairs fell very quiet again as the
last year of his presidency drew to-
wards it's close. Brisk trade under
the new treaties heartened the coun-
try more and more; the turbulent
Democratic clubs that had so noisily
affected French principles and French
modes of agitation were sobered and
discredited, now the Reign of Terror
had come and wrought it's bloody work
in France; the country turned once
more to Washington with its old con
fidence and affection, and would have
had him take the presidency a third
time, to keep the government steady
in it's new ways.
His Farewell Address.
But he would not have the hard Of
flee again. On the 18th of September,
1896, he published to the people a
farewell address, quick with the SOL
emn eloquence men had come to ex-
pect from him. He wrote to Hamilton

HOW TO EAT SPAGHETTI.
Decide in Favor Of
Serpentine Style.

Chicago, June 25.-How best to eat
spaghetti, whether by the "loop the
loop" technique or otherwise, was
considered by the manufacturers of
spaghetti, macaroni and noodles of
the United 5eates during convention in
Chicago. The manufacturers decided
in favor Of the serpentine style as
against cutting the American made
Italian delicacy with knife and fork.
Nearly every member of the national
association seemed to have his own
pet device for twirling spaghetti and
conveying it without loss in transit
from the steaming dish to the open
countenance. Punishment for certain
kinds of spaghetti eaters in public
restaurants was urged. The Offend
ers We're to include, "the man who
cuts his spaghetti wit ha knife and
fork, the diner who reels it in an end
less string, the fellow who uses all
the powdered cheese" 1t was esti-
mated by an expert at the meeting,
which was presided over by President
c. F. Mueller, that 1O0,000,000 pounds
of "raw" spaghetti is imported into
the United States each year, and that
15O,000,000 pounds is made by home
talent. In the United States 12,500,-
100000 feet of spaghetti are put on
the market each year. This would
reach from here to most any place.

THEATRICAL MEN
LEARN GREAT TRUTH
Shuberts and Chicago Manager Dis.
over That Newspaper Is Best
Advertising.

{ Chicago, June 25.--Printers' ink
has won over billboard paste in the
atrical advertising, if the manager of
the Garrick is right, for he decided
that newspaper space only would be
good enough to insure packed houses
for play in which educated people
would be most interested.
"Billboards usually are most num-
erous where the persons who read
are the fewest," said this manager in
explaining 5 stand. MANY mana
gers believe that the billboard as a
getter of patronage is thing of the
past, but few of them have the cour
age to stand by their convictions. The
Shuberts tried out exclusive newspa-
per advertising in New York year
ago with gratifying results, and this
caused the experiment in Chicago.
You know that persons who ride past
billboards are usually going too fast
to read them and 80 per cent of the
folks who ride read the newspapers
while on the cars. During the last
year, with Romance and the Road
to Happiness two of our biggest Sue
cesses, the Garrick and the Princess
advertised exclusively in the neWspa-
pers. A special matinee, advertised
for three days in the newspapers,
were sold out by 10 CLOCK on the
morning of the performance and 900
persons were turned away. The cost
of lithographing-6 cents sheet -
not ounting the cost of hanging the
paper, mounts into big figures when
three or four thousand sheets are Tut
out. We intend to advertise more
and more in the newspapers and less
on the boards"

Seryians Celebrate. Emancipation from
Turkish Yoke.


San Francisco, Cal, June 27.-The
Servians of California tomorrow will
celebrate the emancipation of their
native country from the Turkish yoke
with mammoth opca-air banquet.
Similar celebrations will be held sim
ultaneously by Servians in all parts
Of the world. A universal jubilee has
been arranged by the Servian people
to express their rejoicing over the
outcome of the Turko-Servian war OF
1928. which, they believe. has
brought about the dawn of a new
national independence in their moth
er country, after five centuries of
servitude. The jubilee is held on
"Vidov-Dan," an aancient Servian hol-
iday which this year falls tomorrow
1t was on Vidov-Dan in 1889 that the
flower of the Servian nobility fell in
a desperate battle with the Turkish
army. That crushing defeat sealed
the doom of the Servian empire, and
for more than five centuries there
after the Turks ruled with a niron
hand This date has always. been OBJ
served with sorrow and prayer: but
loyal Servians believe this year be-
speaks the coming of a new era, and
Joy and merriment will reign at the
annual remembrance tomorrow, for
Servia has restored the government
to its people as the result of the war
last year.
