A VIOLET. {
' ; Haitian Follows Closely. but Could Not

A violet dewy and dainty and blue,

With the delicate freshness of heaven’s own hue,
And my love, sweet love, with her ripe, red lips,
Sweeter than flowers where the wild bee sips,
Pressed a long kiss on the petals fair,

To gladdeu my soul as I left her there.

“Keep it. dear love, and though far away,

It will tell what my lips refuse to say."

So I kept it for many a long, long day,

I keep it now and I will alway,

For withered and dead, its dainty hue

Still tells me a story of love most true,

Tells me the story I love to hear

0f the life that has grown so heavenly dear,

And the old. old tale grows tiresome, never,

For the hand that gave it is mine forever.
——James Clarence Harvey in Home Journal.

 

CONCERNING THE BEAN QUESTION.

Recipes from a Region Where Beans Can
Never Be Cooked.

“What is your recipe for baking beans?”

The question was asked of several individ
uals of extended experience.

Landlord Allen, of the Hotel Hamilton,
who set over against the big and finely
painted screen that adorns his dining room,
and bears an excellent likeness of that lover
of good things, Louis Leib, in the makeup of
Falstaff, had no decided opinion as to baking
beans, but his former business partner, who
was with him, said: “I wouldn’t bake them.
I would fry them. Boil them three or forn-
hours, then drain them, put them in a spider
with salt pork, and fry them to a rich
brown.”

John Snelling, the warm personal friend of
Senator Mahone, said: “Down south they
have a habit of cooking the beans according
to the approved method and then mashing
them. I am fond of beans, but I did not
learn how to bake them until I came here.
I soak them until they become soft, put them
in an earthen jar with a little pork, season
with pepper and salt, turn a little molasses
on the top Of them, put the jar in the oven
and let the beans bake. I always cook them
myself, and I imagine I know how to do it
well.”

“I have not yet become thoroughly ac-
quainted with the baked bean,” said Bill Nye.
“Up in Laramie, where I held Ofiice, baked
beans were unobtainable at any price. The
altitude of Laramie, like the prices that rule
there, is very high, and it was found impos-
sible to boil beans there with any degree of
success, let alone baking them. The only
way they could be cooked was to put a little
saleratus in the water in which they were
boiling, but under the best conditions the
beans are liable to be about as hard and un-
palatable as marbles.”

They have a tradition in Germany that
beans can only be properly cooked when
soaked in clear spring water. The host of
Heim’s restaurant on Twenty-seventh street,
whose recipe did not materially differ from
that of the other epicures, was very particu-
lar as to the manner that they should be
soaked and prepared before baking. He soaks
them about four hours and then bakes them
in a dripping pan with a little piece of scored
pork. Mr. Hill, the theatrical manager, who
is a typical Yankee and an adept at baking
beans, believes that they should be soaked or

‘ parboiled, drained and then put in asheet

iron box. A hole in the ground should be
hollowedout and a fire built in it. When the
burning has gone on long enough to make
the desired degree of heat remove the brands,
put in the box Of beans with a piece of pork
on top of it, cover up the box and let the con-
tents gradually but surely reach the desired
degree of perfection—New York Evening
Sun.

There's Something In a Name.

When one Of the finest lake barges of the
build of a few years ago was about tobe
launched, one of her owners was told that the
boat would be christened the Megalosauras.
He protested against the name, basing his
Objections on the well known tendency of
sailors to shorten such long appellations.
His reasoning prevailed.

Senator Palmer being of the party that
discussed vessel nomenclature on this occa-
sion, was asked by Capt. Westcott to suggest
a short, expressive name for a new craft. “I
will,” said he, “call her the Bum.”

This short, expressive appellation induced
the reflection that the Norse or Finnish
legends contained names suitable for lake
craft, and there was instanecd the poem
Kulcvala, dealing with the mythology of the
Finns. In their earlier days on the shores of
the Baltic, that people believed that there
was a race Of demigods who ruled objects in
nature. There was Tapio, who ruled the
forest; Ahti, the lakes and rivers; Tuoni, the
realms of death. There were a sufficiency of
ulliterative names to suit the owners of fleets,
such as Kyllikki, the beautiful maiden who
scorned the addresses of Kauna; Kullervo,
the strong and courageous youth, Kalevu
and Kaatrakoski.

Senator Palmer said that Persian legends
and poems abounded with pleasing names.
Nourmahal, “the light Of the harem,” and
Namouna, the cnchantress, had been appro-
priated by the yachtsmen of the Atlantic.
There ‘was Bendemeer, Chilminar, Kauze-
roon, Cadessia and Arab. He was asked if
he would adopt Feramorz, Fadiadeen and
Mokanna, from Moore’s “Lalla Iiookh,” and
answered that he would not hesitate because
they were distinctive and unhacknoyed.
There were plenty of others, chica, Mirzala,
Zamara, Peri, Zaraph, Mahadi, Camadeve,
Zcmzcm and Sclama; and Israfil, who, the
legend said, had the most melodious voice
of all God’s creatures—Cor. Detroit Free
Press.

'l‘hat Horse Taming Secret.

Apropos of “Horse Whispering,” a corre-
spondent points out that the mystery is very
simply explained by Borrow. Here are his
words in the "Romany Ryez” “I knew a cob
in Ireland that could be driven to a state of
kicking madness by a particular word used by
a particular person in a particular tone; but
that word was connected with a very painful
operation which had been performed upon
him by that individual, who had frequently
employed it at a certain period while the ani-
mal had been under his treatment. The same
cob could be soothed in a moment by another
word used by the same incflvidual in a very
different kind of tone—the word ‘deagh-
blasda,’ or sweet tasted. Some time after the
operation, While the cob was yet under his
hands, the fellow—who was what the Irish
call a fairy smith—had done all he could to
soothe the creature, and had at last succeeded
by giving it gingerbread buttons, of which
the cob became passionately fond. Invari-
nbly, however, before giving it a button he
said ‘Deaghblasda,’ with which word the cob
by degrees associated an idea. of unmixed en-
joymeut. So, if he could rouse the cob to
madness by the word which recalled the tor-
ture to its remembrance, he could easily
soothe it by the other word, which the cob'
knew would be instantly followed by the
button, which the smith never failed to give
him after using the word ‘deagbblasda.’ ”—St.
James’ Gazette.

Black Sheep Among Peers.

The London Telegraph finds 118 out of 550
peers worthy to sit in Westminster. The
rest are black sheep and they who are hope-
lessly eccentric or congenitally stupid. The
Telegraph suggests that the peers pick out a
small minority and let them do the legislating
for the crowd—Chicago News.

A Folk Lore story.

Signor De Nino has made another collec-
tion of the folk lore stories current in the
province of Abruzzi. Among the fables are
quaint versions of some of the legends that
are the common property of the whole world.
The one about the creation of animals in the
Garden of Eden and the age of man bears re-
peating. After the animals were created, so
the story runs, they thanked God, and asked
him what their fate was to be. “'hen they
learned that they were to labor and sufi'er for
twenty years they each prayed to live a
shorter time, and ten years were deducted in
the case of the ass, the dog and the ape.
When man was created and learned that he
was to live but twenty years, he begged hard
for a hundred years, and finally the Creator
gave him the thirty years that the animals
just named had refused. So it comes about
that man’s first twenty years are‘ his happy
ones; then comes the ass‘ ten years of labor;
domestic cares and children fill the next
period, the dog’s ten years; during the di-
vision that follows the children marry and
abandon their father, and in this way the
ape’s ten years elapse. “After fifty,” solilo-
quizes the story teller, “what more is life to
thee? He who has had, has had.“—~Home
Journal.

was for $2,500 a side and the championship

of the world. The .course over which the
men raced is three miles straight away, the
start being close to Glenbrook. near where
the Great Western railway, after leaving
Emu Plains station, commences the zigzag
ascent over the Blue mountains. The course
has a uniform width throughout of about a
quarter of a mile.‘ The finishing point was
a little above Victoria bridge. The race was
rowed according to the new rules of boat
racing, such as are used by the Oxford and
Cambridge universities of England. C. H.
Ashley, one of the proprietors of The Lon-
don Sportsman, holds the stakes. Hanlan
received £100 for expenses. It was a pretty
certain thing before the race that Beach
would win. The betting was 5 and 3 to l.

The Match Made in a Moment of Passion.

Mitchell checked
Sullivan, and the
latter becoming ex.

night. Harry Phillips, Sullivan’s backer,
readily backed the champion for the affray,
but he persuaded him not to fight at once.

It was definitely arranged yesterday by
the parties to the Smith-Kilrain match that
The Police Gazette belt, for which the men
are to fight, should be deposited in the office
of Sporting Life pending the battle. It was
also decided to send Messrs. Fleming and
Harding, representing respectively Smith
and Kilrain, to Spain to select a suitable
place for the fight, and further agreed that
twelve men selected by each side should th-

JOHANN MOST AGAIN CONVICTED.

A Verdict of Guilty After Four Hours'
Deliberation.

New YORK, Noy. 30.-It was ll o’clock
yesterday forenoon when Judge Cowing
came into the court of general sessions and
took his seat on the bench. His expression
(lid not show a shade of anxiety, even if he
did receive a few threatening and ebony
mous letters from cranks or the enemies of
Most.

Assistant District

As soon as he was gi/
seated Mr. Howegz
arose and addressed
the court. He said
that he had heard of the threatening letters
sent to Judge Cowiug, and deprecated the |
circumstance. He denied that the letters
came from any of Most‘s followers.

Then Most was called to the witness stand.
Mr. Howe team by asking Most if he knew
anything of the threatening letters which
had been sent to the judge. Most indig—
nautly denied all knowledge of them. He
had been six times imprisoned in European
jails for seditious utterances. His examina-
tion was a very extended one. At 5:30 the
case was given to the jury, and at 10 o’clock -
they returned with a verdict of guilty; The
result was a general surprise. Mr. Howe at
once moved'fora new trial. and the argu-
ment will be heard next Monday, sentence
being deferred. The prisoner was locked up
in the Tombs.

DEATH OF GEN. LEAVENWORTH.

Brief Sketch of an Active and Distin-
gulslled Career.

SYRACUSE, .N. Y., Nov. zit—Gen. Elias
Warner Leavenworth, who died yesterday
in this city, was a representative American
and quite an historical figure in this state.
He was born in Canaan, Columbia county,
in l 3, was a graduate of Yale college, and
studied law at Great Barrington, Mass, in
the office of the late William Cullen Bryant.

He began legal practice in Syracuse in
1527. He was the second mayor of that city,
in 1849, and again in 1850. He was a mem—
ber of the assembly in 1850, and again in
1857. In 1853 he was elected secretary of
state. He was chosen a regent of the State
university in 1861, and in the same year was
appointed a commissioner on the part of the
United States under the convention with
New Grenada. He was a member of the
state constitutional cmnmission of 1872, and
in 1875 he whs elected a member of congress,
where he served with acknowledged ability
and usefulness. “"hen he retired from that
field it was to make a place for Mr. Frank
Hiscock, now United States'senator. Dur-
ing his long career he held many private and
judicial trusts, was prominent in all public
enterprises, and stood deservedly high in the
estimation of a large circle of_ friends.

was elected chairman of the committee, A.
A. Hopkins, of New York, and T. C. Rich-

Mr. Dickey accepted the honor conferred
on him in a brief speech. He is only 30
years old, a regularly ordained Methodist
clergyman, but at present is professor of
mathematics at Albion college, Michigan,
one of the high schools maintained by the
Methodist church. He was chairman of the
Prohibitory convention held in Pittsburg in
1884, where Governor John P. St. John was
nominated as candidate for the presidency,
and, it is stated, he has no peer in the Pro-
hibition party for executive ability and
political shrewdness. The committee de-
cided to hold the national convention on the
first Wednesday in June, 1888, at Indianap-
olis.

Alleged Parriclde.

GnuaNI-‘mnn, Mass, Dec. l.—Liucoln
Randall, a 17-year-old boy, was arrested and
locked up here last night charged with the
murder of his father, David M. Randall, a
respectable farmer, of Montague. The mur-
der was a most cold-blooded and brutal
afiair. Randall was sitting in his dining
room Tuesday evening when some one ap-
proached from the outside, came to one of
the windows, placed the muzzle of his gun
almost against the glass and fired. The back
of Randall‘s head was literally blown off,
and he died a few minutes after the fatal
shot was fired. Shortly after noon yesterday
young Randall was arrested. He took his
arrest very cooly, simply saying that he did
not commit the deed. There was $40,000 in-
surance on the victim’s life, and it is hinted
.that the murder was committed to prevent
this being'willed to a daughter. There is
damaging evidence against the boy.

THE EXPERIENCES OF A HUNGRY
AND INQUISITIVE REPORTER.

No Oriental Luxuries In Sight—A Mys-
terious Compound Brought to the Table.

Two Slices of “Pe-sick-rc-aut-I."-—A

Pot of Delicious Tea.

In Mulberry street, near Canal, amid the
noise, hustle and confusion of the busy mer-
chants of the “Bendfl’lthero is a quiet and un-
pretentious dining' room. 'It is presided over
at all hours of the 'day and night by Wah

pasted on the windows and their virtues, as

most attractive sign, however, reads as fol-

engaged in leveling the sole of his shoe with
a hatchet when the reporter entered, and,
after glancing up quickly,‘}'_vént onwith his

It struck Mr. Foo amidship. The hatchet
fell on his foot and the shoe dropped into
something which looked like a. keg of mo-
lasses. There was blood, in his eye and there
might have been a tragedy, had not the
innocent cause of all the commotion put on

Mr. Foo smiled so that no one could tell
whether he was weeping, wailing or gnashiag

“Wing Foo ah alle go to kitiug see bah.”

“All right, Mr. Foo. I’ll forgive you. Now
just set up the best in the house, up to the
eight cent limit, and all will be well.”

Mr. Foo jumped away with the air of a
man who did not understand a word that had
been spoil en. ' He kept out of sight for twenty
minutes and then appearedwith a large bowl
of something steaming hot, which he set on
the table and then took a sent close by. He
began to whistle a peculiar call and the yel-
lowish soup moved restlessly in the bowl. A
spoon came with the stufi’. It required some
courage to take a mouthful, and it would
take a team Of horsm and a derrick to get one

tle surprising 120‘ the stomach of a man not
thoroughly used to the customs Of the Flow-
ery Kingdom. Mr. Foo took the mysterious
compound. away and came back in a little
while with a large platter and a couple of
small dishes. There were two slices of some
brown material on the platter. Mr. Foo ad-
mitted that it was “pe-sick—re—aut—i.” There
is no doubt that it was the genuine goods. _ It
tasted so. .One of the slices was filledmith
small fish bones, and the other was a dainty
morsel which might have been taken, with a
little imagination, to be a bit of fried mum-
my. There were also some beans, cabbage
and rice. Mr. Foo evidently runs his place

It made it easy to understand why a young
Chinaman wears wrinkles and appears like
an old man while yet in his teens.

A SMALL POT or TEA.

Mr. Foo removed the dishes, He wanted to
bring some more of the menu, but the re-
porter indicated that he would prefer a. drink
of some kind. After a long delay Mr. Foo
appeared with a tray bearing a small pot of
tea and a cup that resembled a toy. The tea
was a revelation. It was aromatic and the
flavor delicious, and if there had not been a
small family of Croton bugs found in the tea-
pot, after the tea had been swallowed, it
would have been thoroughly enjoyable. This
ended the dinner.

“Well, Mr. Foo, how Inuch do I owe you?”

’ the reporter asked, simply as a. matter of
lorm.‘ '

The remark brought back Mr. Foo’s cheer-
fulness, and he came near uncovering his
spine with longitudinal extension of his smile.
He showed for the first time that his English
had not been entirely neglected. After a few
marks with a brush, through the wreath of
smiles came the words soft and low:

"Sixta—nine—a cen,”

"Sixty-nine cents! Go to, Mr. Foo. You are
crazy! Why your sign out there says that

. you give a good dinner for eight cents. What

do you mean by this extortion?”

“Ah! Excus—a—me. Eight cen for poor China-

The bill was paid, and the visitor came
away with the experience and conviction that
Mr. Foo bad mistaken his calling. He ought

LOUISIANA SALT MINES.

.4. Hell of Saliferous Deposit—Pure Rock
Salt—Pepper Fields.

One of the visitors to the mines explained
to Mr. Ely that there was a belt of saliferous
deposit in Louisiana extending from Bossier
and Bienville parishes, above Red river, to
the Gulf. The largest of these deposits ap-
pears to be the beds Of ancient exhausted
lakes. Salt springs were known to exist on
Petite Anse island from the earliest date, but
tho works were abandoned until the blockade
during the war raised the price of salt so
high in the southern states that Major Avery
reopened themfor the use of the Confeder-
acy. 'It was at this time that he came unex-
pectedly upon the enormous stratum of pure
rock salt, which underlies the soil. Like _the
island of Ormuz, in the Persian gulf, Petite
Anse'is apparently only a huge rock of salt.

The mines have now been in operation
about twenty years. The salt is excavatcdin
large masses by blasting with dynamite. It
is so pure that it is prepared for the market,
not by melting and refining, as in the Eng-
lish mines, but simply by grinding into the
requisite grades of fineness. The native crys-
tals detached by blasting are as clear and
translucent as glass. Mr. Ely went down into
the mine, and wandered through its far re~
treating corridors, whose pillars and lofty
arches shone with a soft silvery radiance.
When the lights of the torches struck into the
darknem overhead, the domes flashed back
such splendors of color that it seemed to
Mr. Ely as if he had entered one of the caves
underground where the Trolls have stored
all the jewels'of the world.

“This is‘all a surprise to me,” said one of
the visitors—a stout professor from. some col-
lege in Indiana—as he stepped from the ele-
vator into the upper air. “I actually did not
know there was a. mine of salt in the United
States.”

“And yet,” said their guide, quickly, “you
have no doubt used our salt on your table for
years. We ship it to every large town in the
north and west.”

This little island Of Petite Anse furnishes
pepper as well as salt to our tables. Tabasco,
or the distilled cayenne, dear to the hearts of
gourmands and. chefs, is manufactured here
out of a wild pepper peculiar to Louisiana.
Two or three fields produce enough of the
cultivated pods to send their essence to all
parts of this country . and to Europe. It is
one of the numberlcss minor industries which
have sprung into life throughout the south
since the war, and which hint at the strength
and vitality' of that long sterile soil—Re-
becca Harding Davis in Harper’s Magazine

tenses of Premature Death.

llm‘. of those who die between 25 and 00,
uni-m they die. by accident, die by some in-
dirx ction. , It is the over indulgence of appe—
tits, or the neglect of food when needed, or
the (wers‘cmlu‘of business, or exposure to

‘ igc of clothing. Most people of
s are conscious of the error after it
l: u made, or others are conscious of it
for then. Without undue captioumess we
can not: changed conditions, and adapt our-
selves thereto. Multitudes die prematurely
by reason of an indiscretion which might

"ve been wily avoided. It is intelligent
caution that saves sickness, and this caution
ought to be in possession and exercise before
middle life. It is so much easier to prevent
serious sickness’than it is to secure recovery
from it. Hence itisthat so many that are

Lord Dalhousle's D‘éath.

Dalhousie at Havre within a few hours of

Infantile
Skin Diseases...

Our oldest child, now slx years of age.when an
Infant six months old was attacked with a viru-
lent, malignant skln disease. All ordinary reme-
dles falling, we called our famlly physician. who
atlem ted to care It; but It spread with almost
more Ihle rapidity, until the lower portion of the
little fellow’s person, from the middle of his back
down to his knees. was one solld rash, ugly, mm-
in], blotched and maliclous. We had no rest at
nIgIIt,uO peace by day. Finally, we were adwsetl
to try the CUTICURA REMEDIES. The effect was
slmply marvellous. In three or four weeks a com-
plete cure was wrought, leaving the lltlle fellow’s
person as whlte and as healthy as though he hall
never been attacked. In my opinion your valu-
able rclnedles saved his life. and to-day he Is a
strong, healthy child, perfectly well, no repetltlon
of the dlsease having ever occurred.

BABY’S
Constitutional Catarrll.

No slngle disease has entailed more suffering or
hastened the breallln up‘of the constitution
more than Catarrh. 'I‘ e sense smell, of taste, of
sIglIl, of hearing, the human vonce, the mind—-
one or more, and sometimes all, yield to Its ,de-
structlve Influence. The poison It distributes
throughout the system attacks every vital force,
and breaks-up the most robust of constitutions.
l nored,hecauso but little understood. hy.most
physicians, lmpoteutly assailed by quacks; and
Charlatans, those suffering from It have little hope
to be relieved of lttnls side of the grave. It .18
time then that the popular. treatment .of this
terrible disease by remedles wlthin the reach 01
all passed Into hands at once competent and
trustworthy. The new and hltherto untried
method adopted by Dr. Sanford in the prepara-
tion of his RADICAL Conn has won the hearty
approval of thousands. It is instantaneous in
affording relief in all head colds, sneezln , sunl-
fing and obstructed breathing. and rap dly rc-
mosves the most oppressive symptoms, clearing
the head, sweeten ng the breath, restoring the
senses of smell taste and hearing, and neutraliz-
lng the constitullonal tendency of the disease
towards the lungs, liver and kidneys. .

SANFonD's RADICAL CURE consists of one bottle
of the RADICAL Cons, one box of CATARRIIAL
Sonvssr, and an Inrnovsn INHALER; price, SI.

INCREASE YOUR PENSION.

Many pensioners borne on the rolls are entitled
to a much higher rate of pension than they now
receive. In a great majority Of cases In which
pension was granted for disease, the pensioner is
entitled to an increase of rate, and In most cases
where it was granted for wounds or injuries the
disability increases each year. As time passes the
disability of all classes naturally increases. Many
were at. first rated too low. and It often occurs
that pensioners are unjustly or erroneously re-
duced by examining surgeons. A pensioner is
entitled to increase on a disability not set forth In
his original declaration. The penslon laws are
more liberal than formerly, and better rating or...
be had for many disabilities. I make a specialty

present me with a brief statement of your case,
stating by whom it was presented, I wlll obtain a
rehearing of your case, and, If It has merit. will
procure a. favorable settlement Many claims
stand rejected before the department, when it
only requlres a competent attorney to make them
good cases. Soldiers suffering with disabilities
contracted in service, who have not appliedfor a
pension, should do so as it is their lunar. '

Meriden coplc woke 11p Thursday
morning to 'ud there was no city water.
The trouble was due to the clogging.r of
the main at the reservoir with ice and
leaves. The reservoir is very low, hav-
Ing only about five feet of water. and there
is much fear of a. ’wnter famlne. The
effects of the failure of water were ex-
tended. Many buildings heated by steam
remained cold because water could not be
had for the boilers, and there was much
interference with business for which steam
power is used. It was several hours be-
fore a normal water pressure could be ob-
laiucd.

PHILADELPH IA’S LEPROSY PATIENTS.

They Have Been In Daily Contact with
Others During Their Slay.

PHILADELPHIA. Nov. .22.-—Tbe two unfor-
tunate lepers, Mrs. P. Miranda and her 9-
year-Old daughter Anita, are now quaran-
tined at the munic'p ll hospital. It is alleged
that Mrs. eraude was advised to keep the
secret of her disease by Dr. 'an Harlingen,
and it is also said that several prominent
physicians were consulted and the treatment
of the two Jepers was begun. During all of
this time the ’ were stopping with Mrs.
Mirande’s sister, Mrs. Nierson, at Twenty-
fourth and \Vright streets. Mrs. Nierson
occupied the same sleeping apartments as
the unfortunate leper. “'hen she lsarned
that her sister was being treated by a physi-
cian, she inquired what her ailment was, but
Mrs. Miranda merely replied, “Only a skin
disease.” Mrs. Nierson learned that Dr. Van
Harlingen was her sister’s physician, and she
visited him, but he refused to tell her what
ailed his patient. “’it her secret buried in
her bosom MIG. Miranda continued to live at
Mrs. Niel-son’s home, while Anita attended
School and played with the school children.

Yesterday Mrs. Nierson and a friend
visited the health Office. They were closely
questioned .by Dr. J. Howard Taylor, the
medical inspector, as to the relationship ex-
isting between herself and Mrs. Mirande and
the nature at the latter’s disease.- Mrs.
Nierson was very much exercised for fear
the disease might be contagious, and asked
if Dr. V an Hadlingen was responsible for his
conduct. “I think it was a high handed
outrage," said Health Officer Patterson.

Mrs. Nierson wanted permission to see her
sister once more, but was informed that it
would be impossible to grant her request.

It seems to ,be the Opinion that the board
of health will send the lepers either to a
settlement for layers in Louisiana. or Canada.

EMPEROR WILLIAM’S GRATITUDE.

Response of Germany's Ruler to Expres-
sions of American Sympathy.

WAsnIxorqiv, Nov. 2‘3.—Secretary Bayard
a few days since wired United States Min-
ister Pendleton, at Berlin, to communicate
to the emperor of Germany the cordial sym—
pathy of the president and citizens of this
country in theserious illness of the crown
prince. Yesterday the secretary received,
through the German legation here, the follow-

 

 

- lug reply to his dispatch:

liis majesty is deeply moved by the fervent
and touching words in which the friendly senti-
ments and good wishes for the imperial house of
Germany are expressed. In pursuance of in.
structions trancnitted to me by the chancellor
of the einpire. in obedience to the command of
his imperial majesty. I have the honor. Mr. Secre-

tary, to convey to you the expression of his '

maiesty's healdlelt gratitude for the sympathy
felt by the president and people of the United
States of America. with our royal house and the
whole country in the deep grief which rests upon
bath. His majesty was much gratified to he in
Iormel of the. n-miments entertained by the
great nation with which We are so closely allied.
Not a. Good Memory.

For some reason, I don’t know why, people
expect to hear sensational testimony when.
over I’m put on the stand in a political case.
But they don’t hear it for a very good rea-
son: I am so peculiarly constituted that in a
political campaign I never remember a trans

action in which I am concerned for twenty-
four hours afterward. I never write letters.
[always burn those I receive, and I don’t
make notes in a memorandum book or diary.
