Playing the World’s Fair Against
tlierFedcral Elections Bill.

CONGRESSIONAL COMMENT. '

Representative Butterworth Says That;
the Question Is :1 Grave One, and
Dirty Jeopardizo the Success of

the Great Undertaking.

\VASHINGTON, Jan. 25.———Congressmen are
commenting upon the action of several
southernlegislatures in declining to take
steps to participate in the \Vorld’s Fair
pending the consideration of the elections
bill. _

Senator Cullum, of Ill'ruois, said he did
not believe such proceedings would have

any effect upon senators favorably dis—-

posed toward the bill. He does not think
the southern states are sincere in their
action. but are blufling to influence con—
grt ssmcn who are working in the interest
of the fair.

Representative Butter-worth, of Ohio,
said the question was a grave one, and if
ten or a dozen states should decline to par—
ticipate in the fair its success might. be.
jeopardized. He hoped that the fair would
be kept out of politics.

Representative Candler, of Massachu-
setts, chairman of the \Vorld’s fair com-
mittee, said he did not think the senti-
ment of the people was fairly represented
in the proposed action.

Representative Abner Taylor, of Illinois,
believes the fair will be a success even if
all the southern states decline to partici-
pate. He does not think the action of the
southern legislatures will influence any
votes on the elections bill.

Senator Berry, of Arkansas, said he had
not attempted to influence the Arkansas
legislature in the matter, but fully in-
'lorsed its proceedings. Arkansas pro-
posed to make liberal appropriations for
an exhibit, but if the elections bill be-
came a law business in that state will be
impaired and the flow of immigration and
:apital stopped.

Confirmed by.the Senate.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 25,—The senate in se-
cret session Saturday morning confirmed
the nominations of Nathaniel P. Hill, of
Colorado; Lambert Tree, of Illinois, and
\Villiam A. Russell. of Massachusetts, to
be international monetary commissioners.

condition Saturday morning was reported
by his family as about the same as the
previous morning.

Appointed by the President.
IVASHINGTON, Jan. 25,—The president
appointed Saturday Davld M. Benjamin a.

The Coast Strewn with ‘Vrecks.
CHARLESTON, S. 0., Jan. 25,—Coastwise
steamship captains say that never in their
experience has the sailing road along the

coast been in such a dangerous condition .
_ urday just after delivering a. sermon.

as it is at present. Unless some effort is

made to clear away the wrecks which line '
the coast from Geduey’s channel, on the .
Jersey coast, to the South Carolina coast, ‘

serious damage and probable loss of life
will result. There are twelve wrecked
vessels strewn along the coast from
Charleston to Gedney’s channel, and cap-
tains say that it requires the.closest ob-
servation and most careful attention to
steer clearof them.

THE CHILIAN REVOLUTION.

A State of Siege Reigns and Business In
at a. Standstill.
BUENos AYRES, Jan. 25.-—A conference

'1
gins taken place between President Bal-I
' maceda and the Chilian deputies, but the,

president did not. take advantage of the
occasion to submit his resignation. The,
meeting therefore proved profitless. The
revolutionists constantly gain in strength
and confidence.

In Valparaiso and its neighborhood the
workmen in the factories are joining the
revolutionary forces in considerable num-
bers, and the sympathy of the public seems
very generally to turn to the rebels.

Railroad traffic is interrupted througlr
out Chili, the insurgents having stopped
the running of trains by the tearing up of
tracks and the destruction of railroad em-
bankments. The government has p'ro-
claimed a state of siege for the larger
towns, and business is at a. standstill.

 

Troops Ordered Home.

PINE RIDGE AGENCY, S. D., Jan. 25.—
Gen. Brooke yesterday afternoon ordered
the Second infantry, of Omaha, to return
home. The Seventeenth infantry, of Fort
D. A. Russell, is also under orders, and
will probably leave today. Troops A and
G of the Ninth cavalry have been ordered
to Fort Robinson.- Companies A and C of
the Eighth infantry have been ordered
to Fort McKinney. Gen. Brooke and stud

lwill leave for home to-morrow. Col.
Hey], inspector general of the Division
of the Missouri, has arrived. About

14.0 of the hostile Brule Indians of 1,570
who came here from the Bad Lands have
returned to Rosebud agency. A large
number of those still here refuse to re-
turn to the old reservation. Today there
will be a conference to determine what
will be done in the premises.

 

A lilystcrious Death.

POPLAR BLUFFS, Mo, Jan. Eli—Last
Tuesday two men registered at the River-
side hotel as F. W. Farnham and A. K.
Smith, of Bangor, Me. Soon after their
arrival Farnham was attacked by some
disease of the brain which tendered him
insane. A doctor was called, and partial-

.ly relieved the sufferer, but \Vednesday

evening he became unconscious, and con-
tinued in that condition until his death
yesterday morning. He is said to ,have
been a prominent man in Bangor. The
mystery surrounding his death created
some suspicion here. The Knights of
Pythias have taken charge of the remains.

Murderous Robbers.

SAVANNAH, Ga, J an. 25.—-Two men, one
white, the other colored. entered a grocery
store three miles from Savannah, and call-
ing for drinks, gave the proprietor, Henry
li‘ehrenkompf, a $20 bill. The latter turned.
to open the safe for change, and one of the
men covered him with a. revolver and or-
dered him to throw up his hands. The
negro covered the clerk. Fehrenkompf
sprang for his rifle near by, and as he did
so was shot in the back, the ball striking
the spine. The clerk was shot twice by
the negro. Ii‘ehrcnkompf fired twice. The
robbers escaped, and the wounded men
were brought into the city.

Now He’s in Jail.

SAN DIEGO, Cal., Jan. 25.—Ex-County
Clerk M. D. Hamilton, whose accounts
were nearly $5,000 short when he turned
over the office to his successor on the lst of
January, has been arrested and is now in

. bondsmen are responsible.

7 . MISS SOMEBODYEISET

If you have ever been engaged to two
girls at once you know cxactlyhow Harry
'Pdllard' felt after the second Lenox club
assembly.

following morning as the full realization
of his embarrassing position dawned on
his mind. “It’s a. devil of, a mess.”

He pondered the situation for a time,
and finally decided to accept an invitation

he hr" - :n on old college chum to visit
him . : c Cod. Harry Pollard forth-
.ri - - '~‘.-< friend Bob Hewitt and told.
ni ‘ --- :ning.

i ' i. I was a tall, stately girl of
w“ 3-be- had known Harry Pollard
e is were children. He had al-
vs. . .. rolyn Cannon, and that even-
ing .~-~ z‘ tiny had waltzed together he

thou ghl‘ he loved her, and told her so. She
thought. she loved him, and said so. It
would have been very well, no doubt, if
matte-ts had paused here; but they didn’t.

Fiancee N o. 2 was Miss Aspinwall-J ones,
and she wouldn’t have captured Harry
Pollard if it hadn’t been for a. very schem—
ing mamma. \thn Pollard accepted a
seat in Mrs. Aspinwall-Jones’ carriage to
drive to the assembly he did not dream the
consequences of the rash act. For before
the cotillon was half over the scheming
mamma had a very bad headache—and
would Mr. Pollard mind if she drovehome
at once? They might finish the dance, and
verylikely-could get some one to chaperone
them on their homeward drive.

“Very likely!”—nothing of the sort.

When Harry Pollard and Miss Aspin-
wall-Jones got into the brougham before
everybody, and brazenly started off for a
two mile drive after midnight, significant
glances were exchanged among the on-
lookers. '

“Too bad, you know,” said one.
too good a fellow for her.”

It was tacitly understood that she was
hunting his money. She was an awfully
pretty girl and all that, but frightfully
poor.

Miss Aspinwall-J ones had passed through
four seasons more or less, and was too old
a. hand to let such an opportunity pass. It
was not every day that she could manage
things to have Harry Pollard alone with
her in a brougham.

It was an alleged fainting fit that did the
business then; and when a girl sinks down
on your shoulder, and when her lips look
very red and tempting, what are you to do?
Harry Pollard was but human, and forgot
all about. Carolyn Cannon. When he left
Miss Aspinwall-Joncs that night there was
an understanding between them.

“But don’t tell any one yet,” he said.

Everything seemed to go wrong after he
left Lenox. He missed his connections at
Boston, and- at last when he reached his
Cape Cod retreat he found no one waiting
for him at the station.

Rain was falling, and a hazy fog obscured
everything. It was after six and growing
dark rapidly. Harry Pollard stood on the
platform in his gray mackintosh and looked
about helplessly.

He questioned the station agent, and was
directed to a cottage a. half mile up the
road. Then he resolutely tram ped off, car
rying a single hand bag.

“I’ll find the place, never fear,” he said.

Presently he came to a cottage answer-
ing to the' description given him. He
walked up the steps, but before he had
time to pull the bell the door was opened
suddenly, a pair of arms were. around his
neck and he was kissed heartily on thelips
by an extremely pretty girl. lie didn’t
seem to mind it, and stood stock still in
abject confusion. Then the girl drew back,
saying:

. “Bob, dear, I’m so glad to see you.”

“Er—why, really,” he began.

The instant he spoke the girl looked
frightened. A wave of color flooded hcr

“He’s

on him and she saw his face, her eyes——
Harry Pollard retained his self possession
enough to note they were blue and awful-
ly pretty—looked very much troubled. In
(Iced she had something to be troubled
about. '

away.

Harry Pollard watched her, and stood
blinking in the light. .

“Deuced cordial reception,” he said to
himself. “\Vondcr who she is? Not Bob’s
wife, of course; I know her. His sister?
He had none. And she called him ‘Dcar
~ pr’. I have it—his cousin, by Jove. Odd
I didn’t think of it before. Just returned
from abroad. Wish I had known she was
here and I wouldn’t have come. I’ve had
quite enough of women; and she begins
like the rest—kissin g and all that sort Of
thing. My luck follows me everywhere.”

The door was open and Harry Pollard
felt that he couldn’t walk in. so he pulled
the bell and waited.

Presently a woman came into the hall,
and the moment she caught sight of Pol-
lard she gave him her hand and greeted
him cordially. '

“Where did you drop from?” she asked.
“I am awfully glad to see you. So sorry
Robert is not here.” .

It was Mrs. Hewitt, of course, and Pol-
lard found, that they had not received his
telegram, as the wires were down; and as
for Bob Hewitt he was in Boston, but ex-
pected home every moment.

“You’ll find it awfully dull here,” said

and I want you to like her very much.”

And he did like her very much. When
she came .down. to tea her face was still
burning, and she looked shyly at him. -.

“Mr. Pollard, this is Cousin Lou,” said
Mrs. Hewitt. _

“We have already met,” said Pollard,
whereupon shc blushed and looked angry,
and he regretted his want of tact.

Pollard had been there but a short time

worse places in the world; and, as for
Cousin Lou, there were worse girls—Miss
Aspinwall-Jones, for instance. There were
walks on the beach, drives and chats after

Lou better in a week than if he had met
her in society for a year. . .

There was a peculiar charm in her pres-
ence, a witchery in her manner that aided
her physical charms. Her mind was a
treasure house that day by day yielded its
store, and Pollard began to feel ashamed
of his ignOrancc of many things this girl
knew better than he.

The inevitable happened Oneday. They
were returning from a walk on the beach.
A sOu’wester was blowing and a mist lay
at sea: rain had begun to drizzle when they
I reached the house and a. light streamed
from the front windows.

.“This is much like the first night I met

“Yes,” she said, with a. rising inflection
that was peculiar to her voice.

“And it seems so very long ago,” he
’.added. ' '

“Yes f”

“And since then _I have discovered some-
thing—shall‘l‘tell you what it is?”

Silence. , _

"I love you very much—may I hope?

“I’ll cut and run,” he said to himself the.

“Oh!” she exclaimed, and ran swiftly .

May I hope that'some time you‘willtelI'me '
. that you love me?”

“Yes”—this time without the rising in-
flection. . ‘

That was all there was to it, or nearly i
all, and the next day Harry Pollard went l
away. I

“N ow for the governor,” he said to him-
self as the train neared Boston. He found
him at the office and was met with a. frown.

“What’s this—hear from Lenox?” his
father said. '

“From Lcnox ?” and the youngerPOllard
looked as innocent as a lamb.-

“A person by the name of Mrs. ’Aspin-
wallJones writes me that you have pro—
posed to her daughter. Is it true?”

“Well, yes; I suppose. it is,” replied the
younger man desperately.

“You won’t marry her,
hear?” .° ,

“Eh?” replied Pollard the younger sadly
bewildered. l

“‘I have broken off the engagement, sir;
wrote to her and told her you do not get a.
cent of my money unless you marry as I
direct. She wrote bar-l»: that. it was very
cruel. very wicked in me to wreck two
young lives, but Iwrcckcd them. There,
si‘r, is a package the young womml sent
me, containing a few jimcracks you sent
her,” and the elder man handed the as-
tounded youngster a package. “Now,
don’t let me hear of any more such non-
sense.”

“It seems too good to be. true.” almost
shouted the cxultant youth. “Thank you,
governor, awfully,” and be grasped his
father‘s hand enthusiastically: .

“God bless my soul, what do you mean,
I say? \Vhat do you mean?” »

“I’ll tell you some day,” and out of the
office rushed Harry Pollard.

He had scarcely gainezl -thc street gvhen
he remembered Carolyn Cannon, and he
hadn’t said a word to his father about
Bob’s cousin Lou. Perhaps he had better

'ait. . .

But 'what did his father mean by saying
that he must marry as he should direct.
If he went against his wishes he would not
get a cent of money from his father, and
money, you know, is an extremely neces—
sary article, even if it is “love in a cottage.” 5
But Lou—his father must see her to agree i
with his son that. she was the most glorious I
woman in the. world. . .

And that Carolyn Cannon affair—how I
could he get out Of that? He would go to f
Lenox, at all events, and face the music. i
Perhaps something would turn up. But :
how could he explain his sudden depart- l
ure?- Business?—ycs, very important busi- ‘
ness took him away. '

When he got to Lenox it was about 11
o’clock the morning, and he felt very .
seedy, having had but little sleep the night i
before.

He went to the. hotel and freshcncd up a
bit, and then started to walk to Miss Can-
non’s cottage, which was but ashort dis- .
tance. away.

On the way a. buckboztrl drove by, and ,
he saw Miss Aspinwnll-Joues and her '
scheming mamma. The latter bowed :
coldly, the former cffusively, as if to show 3
shedidn’t care much, after all. Pollard l
rctumed her how :ilittlc awkwardly. lie I
felt sheepish, remembering what had .
passed in the. brougham that night. As he
neared Miss Cnnnon’s cottage he nerved
himself up as to what. he should say.
Should he deny the existence of their cn- I
gagcuicnt, say she misunderstood him, or '
should he throw himself on her mercy and .
say they had both made a mistake. - l

About a hundred yards ahead of him he I
saw her turn a corner—how well he re—l
membercd that tall. graceful figure and ‘
that languid, deliberate gait. He liMstened i
his steps to overtake her, but she turned
into her gateway before he could catch up .
He would have called out to
her, but some people were passing and he
(lid not care to attract their attention. She .
turned her head carelessly, but evidently
did not see. him, for she did not how. She
passed on and cntcrcl the house. '

An instant later he stood on the steps
and touched the bell. A serving maid :in- I
swe‘red.

“Will you please ask Miss Cannon if she
will sec me?” he said.

The maid went away and a moment af— ,
forward returned.

The. answer dnml‘ounded him:

“Miss Cannon is not at home.”

He said not. a word and then went away. i
It was a little unpleasant to be thrown .
over that. way, but perhaps it saved a good
deal.

He wrote her a note the next day offering I
to explain if she would see him. He said ':
she. was unjust and cruel; he could tell her I
everything. Viould she not consent to see i
him? i

The note he received in reply was very .
formal; she declined to see him. '

That was all; but Harry Pollard felt re- l
licvorl. She was a. woman he had known
for a long time. and without giving him an 1
opportunity to reply to charges which were 5
trivial in themselves she deliberately threw
him over. But it was what he wanted— I
what he came to Lenox for, but withal
very humiliating.

He went back to Boston and wrote to
Carolyn Cannon a full confession, at the
same time telling her of his engagement.
with Bob‘s cousin Lou. A. short. time after ;
ward he received a note from her congrat- 5
ulating him. \thu they meet on Com- .
monwealth avenue they bow civilly, of I
course, but that is all. ' I

Something very important took Harry .
Pollard away from Lcnoxia note from his i
father. \Vhen he read it he frowned, for
he felt that his troubles were not yet over. .
The letter read:

Mr SON—Come away from Lcnox immediately.

Miss Madison. You know quite as well as I that

Should he go to the house, he thought, l
as he walked aimlessly through the public
gardens. Throw over Lou for this money
inevitable girl?
Never, by Jove! “Be.:n1t.-ifu’1,intelligent—~
bah!” he muttered, as he walked up the
steps of his father’s house.

He met his father in the hall.

“I’m here, governor,” he said, forcing 'a !
laugh. “I suppose I shall learn. iny fate, l
but I suppose—suppose this. Miss Madison I
doesn’t. like me?” " I

“No danger of that,” replied the Old man, i

rubbing his hands and laughing heartily. 1

“She is in the drawing room.” He pulled
open the particle and Pollard at once
stepped in. 3

And the best lamp . .
ever made, like Alad-
din’s of old, 3 “won-
derfullamp !" Alamp
absolutely non-
explosive and un-
breakable, which
gives a clear, soft,
brilliant white light
of 85 candle flower!
Purer and brighter
than gas light, softer
than electric light,
more cheerful than
either! That lamp is

“The Rochester.”

And with it there isIno smoke, no smell,
7m [Ira/Mr: chimneys, no flickering, no sweating,
no climbing up of the flame, no “tantrums"
nor annoyance of any kind, and it necer
needs trimming. Its founts (oil reservoirs)
being tough rolled seamless brass, with cen-
tral draft, it is absolutely unbreakable,
and as safe a: a fallow candle.

Only five years old, and over a million and a
half in use. It must be a GOOD lamp to
make such a telling success. Indeed it is,
for lamps may come and lamps may go, but
the “Rochester” shines on forever! We
make over 2,000 artistic varieties,—Hanging
and Table Lamps, Banquet, Study, Vase and
Piano Lamps,—every kind, in Bronze, Por-
celain, Brass, Nickel and Black Wroughtlron.

Ask thelamp dealer fox-it. Look forthe trade-
mark stampz. “THE ROCHESTER.” If he hasn't
thefmmine Rochester and the style you want,
ori no lamp-store is near, send to us for
free illustrated catalogue (and reduced
price-list), and we will box and send you any
lamp safely by express, right to your door.
