 Dickens Masks His Fears
 If Dickens was aware - as he must have been--of this oversha- dowing menace. his fears were care fully masked in ali his letters. We know he set Q very high value on his reputation, and while his inc herent nd-hoartedness would no doubt have prompted him to be charitable toward the one great love of his life, tt ia reasonable to suppose that In taking the tolerant attitude he did toward her persist. ent and annoying importunltieg he was not unftiindful of the fact that she held his destiny In her hands.
 Whom ho finally separated from his wife therA was so much hostile gossip that he decided to make public statement in his own de- fense, which--contrary to the ad- vicO of his frlends--he printed in Household Words June 12, 1858. It reads much like some of the boy. ish effuslonB he sent to Maria Beadnoli, and shows how sensitive he was to the breath of scandal. Ho might better have needed By. ron'a answer to a friend who asked why he didn't defend himself; "Do you think accusors like one the

 Inc Romance Ends
 And thus the romance ended. Maria Winter, having no real ma lioe or vindictiveneea in her na- turo perhaps never realised that eho hold In her possession the most nagolAtory weapon that any wo. man ever held over Dickens head. Not that thore was anything dis. creditablo in his intentions, or in- deed in the letters themselves; but the fact that the world famed "Dora", in human form, had em. ergod from obscurity and had in. ally found her vDoady", and that Doady, being very unhappy with his wife, responded with his whole heart" to Dora's caii-wrote her fond love letters and had clan- destino meetings with her, would have caused great excitement in that quiet Victorian ago. While tho term 'Doady" may have sounded yory cunning and caressing when 1t issued from tho lips of pavld's ehild-wifo Dora, t is likely that much of It's tondor endearment would hav0 been perverted by the tongues and pens of waRglsh ana unromantlo critics in their efforts to adapt it to Dora's forty.four- yonr-old sweetheart.
 Dickens hated hts fathor-in-law, George Hogarth, and his quorulous nature--aggravate by family dis. cord-had ostranged him from many of his dearest friends. A dis- torted construction, could, and would, havo been placed on nearly everything he had said in the see-

Patronage Wrangle Delays Appointments
More Confabs' to Be Eied-Longergan Holds Ace on
 Senatorial Courtesy Plea-Rank, File Disguised

With adjournment of the pres- ent session. of congress fast ap- preaching h vigorous effort on tho part of "New Guard" and "Old Guard" democratic leaders to bring tho Connecticut patronage squabble to . definite close during the coming week ia to be made accord. ing to reliable information from Washington, D. c. United States Senator Augustine Lonergan of Hartford, militant "oid Guard" representative at the nations eap- itol, is expected to call for q show down" before week from
 rho positions of Revenue coiiec. tor pr b. c. Dolan of Manchester. Acting District Attorney Frank Bergln of Now Haven and Customs Collector Mrs Fannie Dixon Wolch of Columbia, as well as numerous postmaster appointments, are at stake and . demand is to be made, it is understood, that the entire slate of federal patronage in the state be decided upon and cleaned up.
 Lonergan Has Edge
 AuEVuHu tOattSoJ ~ is an assured fact that Senator Lonergan can prevent the perma- nont appointment of pr Dolan, Attorney Bergin and Mrs Weich. However. efforts tending towards a compromise have been going on from both sides, Senator Lonergan demanding that at least one of the three positions bo given to an "old Guard" follower Instead of going 100 DOT cent to the New Guard faction.
 "Now Guard" leaders of Connec- ticut, In other words the packers of the Roosevelt nomination forces In the last national convention, are reported as planning to go to Washington either today or tomor- row. It is known fact that Na- tional Committeeman Archibald McNoii of Bridgeport, one of tho "New Guard" faction. will be in Washington 6 Q m eti m 6 today. Whether or not he will be accom- panied by others of the same

group is not known.
 Washington reports of q reliable nature are to the effect that Sen- ator Lonergan has warned Attor. ney General Homer S. Cummings of Stamford that unless . plan of settlement ho has offered Is defins itely accepted within the next few days he will seek senate rejection nominated by President Roosevelt.
 It is understood that Senator Lonergan has made . proposition dividing Connecticut patronage to the "higher ups" The details of the eompromise plan are not known but reports received here now arc to tho offoct that ho wants to sec Dr polan dropped as rev. enue ooilecor. Just where State Chairman David A. Wilson, tho man the senator is cham pioning for . federal post in Connecticut, comes in is not definitely known. It is said though that Senator Lonergan would ngree to any post for Chairman Wilson providing somebody other than Dr Dolan Is in the revenue post. Personal poe iiticai enmity between the two men Is understood to be tho reason for his stand on the part of Senator Lonergan.

 The failure to understand that sometimes has led to Blaeknoss, to tho promulgRtion of religions that have not required much from thos0 who believed in them and followed them.
 Bometim0s tho oxactlong of TO. 1iRi0n have b0en 10 formal and hayo had 70 little to do with moral or spiritual reality that thoro has boon a strong roaotoin, and from being apparently too strict people have como to mako . sort of religion Of lack Of strict- ness.
 Tho late pr George A. Gordon of Old South Church In Boston, once preached a great sermon on { Judgment, in which ho repre-. scented Judgment as the supreme honest man, the ono great goal toward which he was moving.
 uuroIy this is true In every sphere Of honest life and labor. The artist does not wish Co produce something cheap or worthless. Ho values judgm0nt upon his work and ho ig anxious to satisfy tho critics who know.
 The honest workman wants his work to stand tho test. Iio does not resent tho discovery of some flaw, because he wants to make his work perfect.
