A MEMORY OF RACHEL.
The Great Actress After Night o.
Triumph on the Stage.


Triumph on the Stage.
Lord Glenesk gave me nm account OF
his first meeting with Rachel. He had
gone to Paris for the first time az q
youth, and for the first time his father
had taken him to the Francois to see
Rachel act. The entire audience had
been stirred to the widest pitch OF en-
thusiasm and excitement. The next
morning early he had ridden to the
Bots with his father. and on the way
his father had said. I'VE will turn out
OF the avenue moment, down this
street: want to show you the house OF

they found Rachel. clad In loose gar

and wan face. utterly void Of nil the

earlier. had filed her frame.

A TOUCH OF TIE VANISHED HAND.
We sigh for touch of the vanished hand
The hand of a friend most dear
Who has passed from our side TO the shadowy
land
But what OF the hand that is near'
To the living touch is the soul inert
That weeps DER the silent urn!
For the love that lives Is our hand alert -
To make some sweet return?
Do We answer back in q fretfui tore
When life's duties press us sore.
Is our praise as full as II they were gone,
And could hear our praise NO mores
As the days 60 by are four hands more swift
For trifie beyond their share,
Than to grasp, for kindly. helpful lift,
The burdeps someone must bear.
We sigh for touch Of the vanished hand,
And we think ourselves sincere;
But what OF the friends that about as stand.
And the touch OF the hand that 10 near.

Hungary viii Prohibit
Emigration TO America
After War, Says Gratz

Budapest, Hungary. Aug. 19.-Hun-
gary, probably more than any European
nation. is going to have TO erect re-
strictive barriers against the emigra-
ton of its inhabitants to America after
the war. in the opinion of DR.. Gustav
Gratz. member of Parliament and direc-
tor OF the Hungarian Manufacturers
Association. At the same time II the
United States hopes entirely to escape
from an inunadtiOn OF so-called cheap
labor, it must Cooperate and 1tseI
put up barriers which shall help 10
keep out the thousands who. DR.. GratZ
believes. will want and try to forsake
their native country and its heavy
problems
DR.. Gratz declares that he knows
from personal Investigation that the
tendency TO emigrate from agricultural
Hungary viii be in strong contrast to
the tendency in Industrial Austria and
Germany TO stay at home.
The cause for this tendency Of course.
he explains. is to be found in the fact
that the agricultural worker is not
going to be so fortunately situated
after the war as the industrial man.
especially as the worker in Germany
and a great part of Austria who is
probably going to find plenty OF work
at wages high enough to offset the
present and perspective high prices.
Yet. he believes, there viii be some
tendency on the part OF the skilled
laborer to 20 across the new home.
His hope that this is going to be pre-
vented during a critical period in
Europe lies not only in possible legts-
lation here. but in the repeated fndica-
lions from America that she would like
to check the number of emigrants COM
ing to her.
