A QUEER RECONCILIATION.

Pathos and Comedy Mingled by Strange
Couples at Pittsburg.

Herman Krieger and Mrs. Frank
.Whittaker eloped from New York,
each leaving a married partner be-
hind. Mrs. Whittaker took her little
daughter with her. The couple were
caught at Pittsburg, and a local pa-
per gives this humorous version of the
final episode: -

Mr. Whittaker arrived with Mrs.
Krieger. They 'went to the Central
Police Station, where a pathetic and
ludicrous reconciliation took place.

Whittaker first kised his child, and
then kissed the mother. The latter
did not like it atfirst, and “made a
face.” He said he would forgive her.
but she did not care if he didn’t.

The child kised and hugged her fa-
ther, and wanted, him to take be
home with her mamma. The latter
did not want to go back to New York.
and said she had enough of.Whitta-
ker. Then the child went from one
,to another with her caresses and told
her “mamma” to kiss “papa.” Be—
fore they knew it both parents had
tears in their eyes. Then Whittaker
again pleaded with his wife, and she
threw her arms around his neck. As
she passed out ofthe door of the po-
lice station she was wiping the tears
from her eyes and asked: “Is ,my hat
on straight, Ida?” "

The amicable adjustment of the dif-
ferences between Whittaker and wife
left no charges against Krieger. His
better half, however, announced that
she was tired of being ill treated by
her husband, and declared that she
would return to New York as soon as
she could prepare evidence for a di
.vorce. ' ~

Krieger thought his personal ap
pearance had something to do with
his wife’s condition of mind. He said:
“I may not'look nice now, but when
I get shaved and put on a clean shir‘.
I will look different.” '

The woman said she did not care
if he ever put on a clean shirt. The
police officers at length persuaded
her to leave with her erring husband.
She declared that she would never
live with him again.

”After Herman had taken her
through the park and showered atten-
tions on her, her heart softened. By
dinner time Whittaker, Krieger and
the two women and the little girl
were as merry as any crowd of sight
seers in Pittsburg.

Wl'LLlAM DEAN HOWELLS DISCOV-
ERS-A TRUE POET OF COLOR._

 

Paul Lawrence Dunbar, a Son of Eur-moi
Slaves, Now the Talk 0: the Literary
“fox-1d of New York. Some Sketches of
His Work.

I am no priest of crooks nor creeds,
For human wants and human needs
Arcjmore to me than prophets’ deeds;
And human tears and human cares
Affect me more than human prayers.

Go, cease your wail, lugubrious saint!
You fret high Heaven with your plaint.
Is this the "Christian’s joy" you paint?
Is this the Christian's boasted bliss?
Avails your faith no more than this?

Take up your arms. come out with‘me.
Let Heav’n alone: humanity

Needs more and Heaven less from thee.
With pity for mankind look ’round:
Help them to rise—and Heaven is found.

At last an intellectual bridge has
been‘cast across the chasm dividing
the black frOm the white race! At
last, for the first time in the history 01
this country—or, so far as we are
aviare, in the history of any other
country—a man of pure African blood
has arisen to speak-for his people in
the. person "of Mr. Paul Lawrence
Dunbar.

 

PAUL LAWRENCE DUNBAR.

For several years poems hearing this
name have been appearing in the lead-
ing magazines, but they bore on the
surface no racial mark, .and the fact
that some of them were in the negro
dialect counted for nothing, since
many white writers have attempted
that, although with less success. It
was not, therefore, until a slender,
quiet, shabby little volume of verse,
dateless, placeless and without a pub
lisher, drifted out of the ‘West and ac-
cidentally reached Mr. Howells—T—who
is always quick to see ,and never re-
luctant to praise what is really good—'—
that the young Afro-American poet
was introduced to the larger audience

which the importance of his work de-

served.
Only then did. it become generally
known that the author was black,

.that his parents were slaves who

learned to read after they were free,
and that 'he himself had stood shoulder
to shoulder with the heaviest laden of
his “grace. 'He ,was educated in the public
schools of his birthplace, Dayton,
Ollia‘and was until recently an eleva-
tor boy. _

‘As ,these facts came out the signifi-
cance of Mr. Dunbar’s poetry stood
revealed, and it was recognized not
only for its intrinsic worth, for its
lygicnl beauty and metrical quality,
which are quite enough to lift it into
pmminence, but as the first author-
itativeantterance‘of the inner life of a.
race which had hitherto been dumb.
The little book thus voicing what had
negver‘ibeén fibefore spoken was pri-
vat“ @rinte‘d and called “Majors and
llw_or§,”»_-_the‘Majors being in English
$133318 _-7lii;vu's in dialect, sometimes
(heit’cfifsg: of the Middle-South ne
groes an sometimes of the Middle.
South whites, and in the case of the
negro, dialect reproduced with a per-
fecfion" that no white writer has at-
taincd.

These poems, covering a wide range
of, thought and feeling, have been
gathered with a number of new poems
into a much larger volume soon to' be
published by Dodd, Me'ad & Co.

TWO VlEWS OF THE FIRST TOOTH.

One oftho Views Was Odd, but Painfully
True. '

“Orlando,” she exclaimed, “the baby
has a tooth.”

“Has he?” was the response, in a
tone which .betrayed no emotion.

“You don’t seem a bit surprised.”

“I’m not surprised. All babies have
first teeth. If this Ione‘didn’t have
any, I’d manage to get up some ex-
citement, maybe.” '

“I thought you’d be pleased and
happy about it.”

“No. I don’t see that it’s any occa-
sion for special» congratulation. The
baby has my sympathy.”

“Sympathy! What for?” .

“For having his first tooth. He
has just struck the 'opening chapter
of a long story of trouble. Pretty
soon he will have other teeth.”

“Or course he will.”

“Every one he cuts will hurt him.
Then his second teeth will come along
and push these out. That will hurt
him again. Some of the new ones
will come in crooked, like as not, and
he will have to go to the dentist and
have a block and tackle adjusted to
them and haul them into line. Then
he’ll cut his wisdom teeth. That’ll
hurt him some more. After that he’ll
have to' go to the dentist‘and let him
drill holes and hammer until his face
feels like a great palpitating stone
quarry. I wouldn’t want him to go
through life without teeth. But i
must say that I don‘t see any occa-
sion for the customary hilarity ove‘
ai event that means so much in .th-

way of sorrow and humiliation-ix-

TAILOR-MADE WOMEN

Fashions for the Season as They Are In
‘ , Far Developed.

(B3r Special Arrangement with the N. Y. Sun.) .

Women are anxious to‘know what
to purchase for, the future and'how
they shall have their wardrobe made.
Although the new styles are very ele-
gant, there seems to be 'a tendency to
ward simplicity of material. As'for
color, no one need despair of her favor:
ite color not being used, for every hue
will show itself this season. In Paris
women are wearing red, a deep pink-
ish crimson, in which lingers a sus
picion of geranium and cerise. Many
of the cigar tints have acquired new
beauty this fall, and will be very mucr

 

in evidence, and allbrowns, gray-s and
fawns will be more used than any
other shade. for street wear for the
early gowns, outside of the beautiful
mixtures that are shown in the
tweeds. The new wo-ollens have the
boucle effect introduced into almost all
the new fashions. Plain colors are
covered with geometrical designs
formed by the black curling threads,

d the principal mixtures are black
b ended either with red, lavender,
brown, green, royal blue, and petunia.
Often two of these are combined

with no intermixture of black. Some

times the boucle effort is thrown on in
misty checks or shaded stripes, and in
most of these there is a suggestion of
tartan, and all of them are well cov-
ered with the black curl. This boucle

effect is also thrown over the tweeds
and on the mixed coatings. There are
also in the fall cloths many with large
checks, but most of them are softened
by the boucle effect. Some have a
brocadedeflfect in two colors as well as
the curled thread-s. The old knicker-
bocker style, in which: the threads in
the stripes become every now and

then rough and coarse, is once more

seen in the speckled tweed.

Besides the pure woollen goods,
there are a great many mixtures of
silk and wool. Another novelty is the
thick basket Work cloth in black and
colors. Bright colored metallic effects,
like beads or pin points, are seen on
many of the black checks and the

chine zlbelines with flower effects; but-

notwithstanding all this, a great many
of the best dresses will be made in uné

 

figured material. The Scotch tweeds
show great variety in design, and
there are many diagonal tweeds with
a broad border of a distinct color, and
a shawl fringe. These the Parisians
are making up into dresses of many
kinds. They suggest the use of shawls,
so exactly do they resemble them.
l‘ailor-made gowns will be ,most pop-
ular among the very fashionable peo-
ple for day wear, and they are <more
severely tailor made than ever. The
coat or jacket fits closely to the hips
and many of the bodices button up to
the throat with a straight collar. Some
have a loose front with closely fitting
back and sides. Pretty vests are worn
avith these made of white kid, suede or
:Iace. and they give unwonted style
:0 many light-tinted gowns.

award of $2,500 by the committee was
not as much as she expected but she
does not feel inclined to contest the
case any further.

Marvelous Results.

From a letter written by Rev. J. Gun-
derman of ‘Dimondale, Mich., we are
permitted to make this extract. “I have
no hesitation in recommending Dr. King’s
New Discovery as the results were almost
marvelous in the case of my wife. While
I was pastor of the Baptist Church at
Rives Junction she was brought down
with pheumonia, succeding La Grippe.
Terrible paroxysms of coughing would
last hours with little interruption and it
seemed asif she could not survive them.
A friend recommended Dr. King’s New
Discovery ; it was quick in its work and
highly satisfactory in its results.”

Electric Bitters.

Electric Bitters is a medicine suited for
any season, but perhaps more generally
needed, when the languid exhausted
feeling prevails, when the liver is torpid
and sluggish and the need of a tonic and
alterative is felt. A prompt use of this
medicine has often averted long and per-
haps fatal bilious fevers. No menicine
will act more surely in counteractingand
freeing the System from the malarial
poison. Headache, Indigestion, Con-
stipation, Dizziness yeild to Electric Bit
