.TWO KINDS OF PEOPLE.

No: the two kinds of people on earth
I mean -
Are the people who lift and the people
who lean.

 

Wherever you go you will find the
world’s masses
always divided
Itwo closses.

’Are in just these

And, oddly enough, you will find, too.
I ween, _

There is only one lifter to twentv who
lean.

In which class are you? Are you easing
the load

Of overtaxed lifters who toil down the
road? '

Or are you a leaner, who lets others

bear
Your portion of labor and worry and

care? .
——Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

A WHILE AGO.

Some apostle of things occult has
said that the lines that are past re-
sume their thread with fate in the
living of the present. Vows made in
centuries gone by, and since neglect-
ed, can be expiated by lips that whis-
per them :to-day.

It is an ingenious so-phistry, for in
romance all lips have whispered the
same words of 'love today, yesterday
and to-morrow.

Now I am not a romantic follow. I
have plenty of money and have never
been permitted to see or feel these
stirring emotions that make tragedies
in life. My past in the human drama
has been a lazy, dozing, peaceful one.
I have stood in the midst of dramatic
scenes; I have looked into the faces of
men, scarred and wounded in contact
with the world, and passed on. I
may have felt sorry for-the seamy
side of life. realizing that suffering
was distinctly opposite .to pleasure.
but that is all. When I could help the
pain with money I have done so; but
then I had plenty—it was no effort to
give it away. .

I am doing something to-night I do
not exactly remember to have done
lrfore consistently—J am thinking.

" the novelty of the thing. I am
writ- ‘ down on paper what I think,
becaus. occurs to me I may forget
all abom if I don’t, and it will help
me to renn. aber what I have neglect—
ed to do all these years—to get mar-
ried.

I don’t believe in doing this sort of
thing for money. Those story-writing
“fellers” never mean a word of what
they write. but I do: therefore my
story shall be priceless.

I strolled into the “Black Cat" to—
night for dinner. I was tired of the
club, tired of Delmonico’s. tired of din-
ing out, so. instead of turning off
Fifth avenue at Thirty-fifth street to
my chambers, I walked on and on. till
I’ could smell the garlic and lodging
houses of Bleecker street, and. having
crossed the once aristocratic W'ashing-
ton Square. I came "to a little house
with‘two lamp-s on the steps, and be-
tween them. swinging in the air

It was a French restaurant. where all

 

 

the delicacies of the season. in seven I

courses, were adventiscd for the mod-
est sum of fifty cents. I :had survived
many cheap table d’hotes abroad wiih-
out permanent injury, and. besides. I
was not really hungry. I was only
bored.

The waiter looked at me searching-
ly, hung up my coat, then with
marked deliberation counted out one.
spoon, one knife, one fork and one
butter plate before me. Then he. said:

“\Vill monsieur take the ordinary or
the superior?"

It was because of the superior gifts
of life that I was bored. so I said or-
dinary.

The room was full. I do not remem-
ber rthe faces of any of the people I
saw. They were ordinary men and
women, looking a little more tired and
less interested in. their dinners than
the men and women whom I had seen
at Delmonico’s. I was disappointed.’
There was really nothing unusual or
odd in the whole transaction except-
ing the dinner and its service. and I
was about to move away. when. by
chance, I looked a second time at :l

pair of dark eyes that I found“he-unzinga:~

at me with quiet interest.

I looked at the hat above them.

It was a hood affair, with plenty of
rich black velvet about it. and a light
steel butterfly holding the huge bow
together. There was a broad. pliable
brim that cast a shadow over the face
when she bowed her head.

I was particularly interested in the
hat. because it was elegant yet sim-
ple, and up above, in the fashionable
quarter where I came from, that was
what the womer were most proud of.

When I looked under the hat. I
found thick, black hair, parted in two
rippling waves, slanting over a low.
broad forehead, white and smooth.
Then came .1 1e eyebrows, as though
darkly-pencilcd, with arching grace
over the eyes. She was simply dressed
in gray. To my mind the dress was
cheap, and I did not look at it again.
because I don't like cheap things.

Dining with. her was an eccentric,
sallow-looking man. who wore specta-
cles. I observed that his hair seemed
a massive, uncombed quantity, doom-
ed to go about the world upon a head
shaped like an egg. He was young.
apparently, but sickly. and this
strange escort made me wonder still
more about the lovely face.

Presently she returned my gaze
will) nnaffecicd interest, and it flash-
ed across my mind that we had met.
before. butcasually. It had not been
a mere transient acquaintance, but we
had known each other intimately well.
We, seemed to know each‘ other then.
but some link from the past was miss:
inn. and we could only look at can).

I
other—there was no excuse to speak.

Heri face inspired the most reverent
regard I had ever held for a woman,
and I felt sorry for the cheap dress
and shoddy escort. Even the 'hat was
familiar to me, and the bright butter-
fly glistening like silver in the nest of
rich black velvet seemed to assure me
that. we were old fit-ends.

At length they finished dinner: he
put a slight little cape about her
shoulders; they passed out and were
gone, and the place seemed suddenly
empty to me. I did not follow them
—t11at would have been rude—so, sat-
isfied that my memory had clearly
photographed her face, I paid my bill
and passed out into the street.

As I crossed \Vashington Square
the poor people about were more no-
ticeable to me than usual. I found in
their faces a pardon for poverty. Was
it because I had seen that cheap, gray

, dress? Could a pair of dark eyes real-

 

‘ grace OVOI‘

 

ly change the scene of life to more
tender aspect? It seemed so, for I
did what I usually reserved for an
office of duty, I walked into my fath-
er’s house with an assurance in my
mind that I should enjoy the visit.

I found my father in the dining-room
alone, lingering over his favorite ci-
gar after dinner.

“W'ell, Dick, this is kind of you to
drop in on us in this way. Your moth-
er will be glad to see you. You’re such
a wayward boy, since you’ve grown
to manhood,” he said, kindly, as. he
motioned me to a chair, and pushed
the cigars and decanter toward me.
It was very still in the room, the Cl-
gars were -of the best, the liquor
daintily served, and somehow or oth-

er I found the old gentleman more

chum-my than he had ever seemed to
me before.

“Dick, marriage. is a good thing for
a. young fellow like you with plenty
of money. A wife gives you something
to think about—something to do,” said
my father, seriously.

“W’ell, some day—some day!” I an-
swered. .vagucly. '

“What happened between you and
Dolly, Dick? We all thought you
were fairly caught then.”

“Nothing, only she was too good,
too bright, too- clever for an ordinary
chap like myself. I felt as though
she would never be happy wifih‘a tire-
some fellow like me. You know she
was a fine pianist. I couldn’t appre-
ciate that. I never cared for music.
She could spend all day in a picture
gallery. I couldn’t unless it were full
of photographs of pretty women and
there you are. Dolly ought to marry
a genius. It’s the kind of man she
could worship.

 

My father puffed vigorously at his ,
' majority and no one else wanted what

cigar awhile, then .his eyes became
fixed 011 an oil painting that hung on
the wall behind me. I turned and
looked, too. . .

It was the portrait of a woman.

the same face—identically the same I

face. I had seen in the little cafe near

Bleecker street—the girl in the cheap '

gray dress.

“That’s your style of beauty—~—eh.
Dick?” said my father. seeing I was
absorbed in the picture.

“Yes.“ I answered, simply.

“Well. I admire your taste, but you
don’t see such faces to-day. The
fashions have changed; the. morals
have changed since your grandmother
sat for that portrait.”

“W’ho painted it?”

“Her husband. She was the sort of
woman you spoke of just now, like
Dolly. She sang beautifully, she loved
pictures. she wrote p0etry—”

"Go on.” I said. my eyes eagerly
‘watching tho'vivid portrait of the
past

“Well. these things are all good in
a way. but they are not practical. She
married an artist. Just such a fellow
as you would choose for Dolly—full of
romance and poetry and fire. He
painted that portrait of her and they
fell in love, and were married secret—

My fathers voice was less deliberate
now.

“For five years they struggled. Her

After that they were sorry.
found her body in poor lodgings, with
one dress on her back.”

“Yes, yes, I know. It was a nasty,
cheap. gray dress,” I said, interrupt-

ing ihirm.‘ and, turning around, I saw »

my father’s astonished face.

“How did you know that?”

“A chance. I guessed at .it, that was
all,” I answered, 'apoliogetically.

But the facts were irrevocable.

I had met the exact counterpart of
my partrician grandmother, in shoddy
ci-rcumstances,_ in a cheap restaurant.

Was there some truthl-in the occult
saying, that vows neglected in cen-
turies past could be expiated by lips
that should whisper pardon to-day?
This is why I am thinking tonight,
and this is why I have written down.
as consistently as an amateur scribbler
can. the record of my adventure.

lVlrat I really think is, that if I ever
meet those dark eyes again, I will
find a way to expiate the. vows neg-
lected in that past century.

I will relieve her of frowny escorts
with uncombed hair, because they
may be poor geniuses, and she shall
never wear a cheap gray dress again.

MICHIGAN’S “BOSS.”

HE PLAYS A HAND WHICH NEITHER
GUAY NOB PLATT CAN “CALL.”

 

Pingrec Has a Wonderful Knowledge of
Human Nature and Uses It for the Ac-
complishment of the End He Desires
To Gain. -

Hazen S. Pingree, Governor of Mich-
igan, is the greatest political boss that
the country has seen, says the Chica-
go T‘imes-Herald. '

To-day he is the absolute" master of
Michigan. His will is law, and the
people not only follow him wherever
he leads, but they are proud of it.
There is, to be sure, a difference in the
methods he employs. Pingree is hon-
est. One of the chief faults his ene-
mies find with him is that he is in-
corruptible. This is an unusual charge

to make against a boss. But Pingree ’

is an unusual boss.

The last election held in Michigan il~
lustrates the control which Pingree
has over Michigan politics. The boss
himself was a candidate for Governor.
He won the nomination after the hard-
est kind of fight. Then he ran 30,000
or more ahead of his ticket. He
named mos-t of the Republican legisla-
tive candidates. Never has there been
such a case of bossism as there was
in the Detroit legislative districts.
P-ingree sent down to the convention
a printed list of the men who were to
be nominated. He admitted it and
gloried in it. The. opposition called
the nominees the “O. K.’d ten,” and
the “branded slaves.” They were 1held
up to ridicule as being owned by Pin-
gree. The nominees did not resent it.
They went on the stump and publicly
announced that if they were elected
they would have no higher ambition
than to do exactly what Pingree ad-
vised them -to do. The result was
that they ran away ahead of their
ticket.

Cain Croker, Quay or Platt show any
parallel. to that?

Pingree has his own methods. He is
original. In the first place, he came
into politics by accident. Before his
nomination as Mayor of Detroit in
1889 he did not know the first thing
about politics. He “was a Republican
because he was born in Maine. Be-
ginning life as a journeyman shoe-
maker, he had become proprietor of a
shoe factory, and his political duties
consisted in sending a check each year
to the campaign committee.

Pingree was nominated for Mayor
in 1889 because Cleveland had carried
the city a year befor by nine thousand

came angry

all the veteran politicians, like Sena- ‘

tor McMillan, Alger, Bliss, Burrows
and O’Donnell. But he beat tham all
and got the nomination. Election as
Governor followed as a matter of
course. McKinley carried Michigan
by 56,000 plurality. Pingree’s plural-
ity was 83,000.

Pingree set to work to reform the
State. He found, that Indiana secured
about $2,500,000 3. year in taxes from
railroads. while Michigan, with :1
larger railway mileage, had been get-
ting about $70,000 from the same
source.

counties in the State the power of lo-
cal taxation over the railroads and al-
lowing them to assess railroad prop-
erty the s'amc as other property and
collect taxes from‘the corporations in-
dependently. The railroads opposed
this. but the people approved, and the
result was the passage of a compro
misc bill increasing the taxation on
gross earnings and doubling the
amouniwof taxes received. But this
was not satisfactory to ll’ingree. and
in the last campaign he made his fight
chiefly in fill‘Ol' of a further increase.

THE KEELY MOTOR "BUBBLE.

 

 

It “’as One of the blost Successful Gold
Brick Schemes of lilodern Times.

With the death of John E. XV. Keely
probably ends the career of one of the
most remarkable impostures that have
ever obtained credence with men re-
puted, in other respects, to possess or-
dinary intelligence. Keely’s claims
rested entirely upon his own audacious
assertions as to what he could do if
the money to do it with were only giv-
en him, and to exhibitions of an appa‘
ratus which he would neither permit
to be examined by experts nor explain
himself. His was a confidence game.
pure and simple, and out of it he made
a comfortable living to the very last,
in spite of his repeated failures to ful‘
til his promises to his dupes.

Keely’s pretended discovery was
that of a method of disintegrating wa-
ter, by means of musical vibrations,
into its component molecules, and of
thus developing a vapor of an elastic-
ity and expansiveness which far ex
ceeded those of steam. In fact, his
excuse for not demonstrating practi-
cally the availability of his new mo-
tive power, was its excessive intensity
which defied the control of ordinary
machinery, and needed engines of un-

usual strength to confine it within

bounds. The same reason was given

for not permitting any one but himself

to manipulate his apparatus, and en-
rious investigators were warned that
they risked their lives if they med-
dled with it except -under his su-
pervis'ion.

That Keely had a motive power .of
some kind. which be employed for
exhibition purposes, is undeniable; and
whether it was compressed air, or a
gas liberated by chemical decomposi-

’ tion, or something else of that kind, it.

is, at present, impossible to say posi-

l-ess certain.
tific discovery is from one step to an

vance of the preceding one. Nothing
approaching the disintegration of wa.
ter by mechanical means, much less
by musical vibrations, has yet been
even indicated by science, and all

CLEAN T'OWEL SUPPLY COMPANIES.

They Originated in Chicago and Are Now
Located in all Large Cities.

The clean towel supply business,
which,originated in Chicago. was in-
troduced in New York in 1884. It has
thrived here. and there are 'now
about twenty-five concerns engaged
in the business in this city, with
thousands of customers. whose num-
ber are constantly increasing. There
are a great many towel users who
never
towel supply concerns when the busi-
ness was first started who now
wouldn’t think of getting them in any
other way.

Cabinets are supplied with a place
to keep the towels in. and they are
also provided with a comb and brush,
a whisk broom, a soapdish and soap.
The cabinets are made in a variety
of styles and sizes. each having a
mirror in the front. Either hand or
or both.
The minimum supply furnished is
four clean hand towels a week, and
once a week the used towels are
taken up and replaced . with clean
ones, the soap renewed if it is out,
and the other articles of the equip-
ment looked after.

Towels are supplied to banks.
stores, offices and pretty much all
sorts of business places, in many of
which a large number are used, the
supply being renewed as often as may
be required. There is one concern
that supplies towels with the custom-
er’s initials on them, using a double
set for each customer and supplying
each with the same towels always.
There are now supplied bootblacking
outfits, with polishing brush, dauber
and blacking, the blacking supply be-
ing constantly renewed, all for so
much a month. The towel supply
business has now spread all over the
countrv and it is established in all
the large cities—New York Sun.

Au Uncomplimentary Compliment.

A young Dane who is trying to mas-

one laughed when he made what he
thought was a complimentary remark.

instruments into- church choirs was

ment occurs to me. and I add, turning
toward the minister—‘though we have

the pulpit!’

“Everybody in the house joined in
a positive roar of laughter,_ and the
minister laughed more than any one
else. I lafighed, too; I like to be.
agreeable; though there was a humor
I certain-1y missed. Will you kindly
tell me What is amusing in comparing
a minister to that beautiful stringed
instrument, a lyre?”—Chicago Times
