0y Warmnn Tells now no Wrote It, and
Something of the Music.

Everybody has heard “Sweet Marie.”
and admired it. Many have heard it too
often, but the sweetness of the song never
quite vanishes, even when its melody be-
gins to have a chestnut flavor. In an ar-
ticle in the New York Press, Cy Warman

The sun had just gone dowu behind the
hoary hills, flooding the June twilight
with its gold and glory. Having finished
my dinner, I had strolled out to take a
turn beneath the maple trees that line the
Walk about the courthouse. Honey laden.
homeward bound, belated bees droned
in the trees, and all the world seemed
filled with the sound and scent of sum-
mer.

. Here would I walk and watch out the
flying day, and breathe the pure air fresh
from the snow fields of the North. Here,
too, I hoped to win a good night smile,
for dowu this way, she was to pass to the
theatre—~with another man. I was turn.
ing the corner when she came. Face to
face we met, and such a. smile! There
was a world of tenderness in it, and, with
a man’s conceit, I fancied there was some
thing back of it.

I wondered, too, if she had guessed my
secret, and while the sound of her car-
riage wheels were still in my ears I said,
half aloud:

I’ve a secret in my head-t,
Sweet Marie;

A tale I would impart,
Love, to thee.

And‘then, as a. man having been drunk
with wine imagines that everybody knows
it, I felt that my secret was out, and I had
gone less than a dozen yards when I fin-
ished the half stanza:

Every daisyin the dell
Knows my secret—knows it well,
And yet I dare not tell Sweet Marie.

Then the whole song came rushing up—
on me like a mountain stream after a
cloud-burst. Like a gleam of glory in a
gob of gloom it came fast, and flooded my

I walked, sang my new song and gloried
in it as a happy mother glories in the first
faint smile of a new born babe.

The following summer I gave the poem ,
to General David S. Stanley. He submit-
ted it to Mr. Dana; it was accepted, and
on the following Sunday received some
editorial mention, and I rejoiced anew.

I think it was ex—Congressman Belford,
the “Red Headed Rooster of the Rockies.”
as he was known in :the House, who
first advised me to have the verse set to
music.

Raymond Moore was in Denver at the
time and I persuaded him to call at my
office. When I read the song to him he
snapped his fingers—tears of enthusiasm
stood in his eyes as he declared that
it would make “the sweetest song ever
sung.”

Out of the third stanza, which began
originally:

Not. the sun-glints in your hair,
Sweet Marie,
Nor because your face is fair,
Love, to see;
I made a chorus, had my stenographer
copy it, then holding the revised copy in
his hand he began to hum. “Something
sweet and slow,” he said, “like this;” .
then he sang exactly as a million months
have sung since:
”Come to me, Sweet Marie,
Sweet Marie, come to me.”

Irepeated and remembered the notes he
sang, and when a year later Will T. Carl-
ton came to the foot-lights in the Broad-
way Theatre and sang the song. I was
glad to note that Mr. Moore had not varied
a shadow from his first inspiration.

The Barefoot Fad.

Barefoot women are supposed to be
oftener seen among the peasants of Eu-
rope and the lower classes in our own
country than anywhere else; but this may
all change before long, since Dame Fash-
ion has set the seal of her approval upon
the custom, though as yet she would con-
fine it to the privacy of my lady’s boudoir,
or to very informal and semi- private
mornings in the drawing-room. The fad
originated in the treatment of the cele-
brated German physician, Kniep, who,
among other things, required his patients
to take a run in their barefeet every morn-
ing, no matter what the weather. He was
successful in his practice, and it became
fashionable to go to him, and hence to
adopt his methods. Mme. Sara Bern-
hardt, it is said, spends her mornings,
either when alone or when receiving visi-
tors informally, in her bare feet. In two
of her plays she appears barefooted,
though part of. the time her feet are tied
to sandals. It is unnecessary to say that
this fashion is not likely to be adopted by
any but women who have pretty feet. It
has already resulted in greater attention
being given to the feet, and many persons
have their toe nails trimmed and polished
as carefully as they do their finger nails.
There is something to be said in favor of
the practice, since it hardens the feet
and renders them less sensitive—From
“Chat,” Demorest’s Magazine.

Prof. Helmholtz’s Remarkable Brain.

In order to satisfy scientific men as to
the real cause of Prof. Helmholtz’s death,
says the London Telegraph’s Berlin cor-
reSpondent, a. post-mortem examination
was made at the desire of his relatives on
Sunday, the chief result of which is as
follows: , As a. consequence of the para.-
lytic strokes, the left portion of the brain
was considerably softened, while the
right portion was perfectly normal and
sound. The brain displayed unusually
numerous cerebral sinuations, such as
are known to be generally observed in the
brains of persons of very great intellect.
The physicians and pathologists who con-
ducted the examination were extremely
interested with what they saw, and a
cast of the brain was immediately taken.
Other organs of the body showed some
signs of disorder, but in his lifetime the
deceased had not experienced any incon-
venience therefrom.

 

I had a very interesting time of. it Sun-
day. Sandson the strong man, spent the
day with me.”

“Really? He must be a wonder, that
fellow.” -

“He is; but he met his match Sunday
afternoon. My small son’s nurse went
out, and Sandson undertook to play with
the boy. He went to bed at seven o’clock
absolutely broken dowu.”

All Italian Stonemason; l * B
The Boston EXDPBSS.

Came to work on the Rallroad Im-
provements at Whistlevllle.

 

An Italian stonemason known by- the
name of “Louis” was killed, last
Tuesday, by the Boston express that
arrives at South N orwalk at 9.09. He
was walking on the track at the time of
the accident and was struck in the left
shoulder by the engine and rolled over
several times. His leg was broken and
his forehead split open, and he lived
but a moment after being picked up.
His body was carried to the baggage
room at the depot Where Medical Ex.
amiuer Burke viewed it.

Louis and a fellow workman named
Joe Morrell left New York Monday to
come to South Norwalk in hopes of
obtaining work on the Consolidated
improvements at Whistleville, They
arrived at West Farms on the Harlem
division in the evening and found that
no more trains to South N orwalk would
stop there. They spent the night in
that place and took the 7 o’clock train
for South Norwalk this morning.
When they arrived at the depot they
got off the train and walked down the
truck towards Whistleville where they
made application for work.

' The contractor offered to give them
work, but both refused to accept it on
account of the low wages offered.- As
they could not come to any agreement
With the boss in charge Louis suggest-
ed that they walk back to the depot and
purchase tickets back to New York.
To this Morrell assented and they were
both on the way to the station when
Louis was killed. Morrell stated to a
GAZETTE representative that Louis was
walking on the tracks while he was on
the path beside the tracks. Louis was
carrying his tools on his right shoulder
and evidently did not hear the train
approaching although Morrell says he
called to him. Morrell further said
that the dead man had a wife and 4
year-old boy living in New York.

Interesting Note. of Those Who Wield
Pen tar-Brush. ‘

Dr. Conan Doyle says that the first
words he ever uttered were, “Please
tell me a story?” There’s precocity for
you. v '

Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett is la-
conically described in an article on women
writers, as “the mot-her of two sons and
twenty-two novels.” ' ' -

Considering the vast amount of fiction
she has produced, it is not surprising to
learn that Miss Braddon began to write
at the1 tender age of eight years. At
twelve she had ready for the publisher 8.
historical novel, a. tale of domestic life,
an Eastern story and a. romance of the
Hartz Mountains. . '

Many obituary sketches of the late
Mrs. Celia Thaxter asserted that she
married her guardian. The fact is that

~Mr. Thaxter was a. college student when,

happening to visit the Isle of Shoals,
he fell in love with the lightkeeper’s
daughter, who became the distinguished
poetess. -'

Munkacsy, the Hungarian artist, has
passed the summer at his home in the
Grand Duchy of Luxemburg working on
a large canvas representing a strike in
Paris. He has had great difficulty in pro-
curing models, and for that purpose
found it necessary to go into the indus-
trial towns of Belgium and Lorraine to
make sketches, and even into the reputed
haunts of the Anarchists.

An Unexpected Confession.
Clarence Templeton and Clara Katch-

um were seated together on the moon-lit '

beach.

Their acquaintance was one of but three
weeks’ standing, and yet in that short
period of time they had been almost con-
stantly together. Clara thought she saw
the opportunity that she had longed for
in her dreams, and had been shrewdly
developing her hand.

The time had arrived for prompt and
decisive action.

“So you leave for the city to-morrow,
Mr. Templeton?” she said, with assumed
indifference.

“Yes,” he replied thoughtfully, “and
although it may seem paradoxical, I am
both sorry and glad.” ~

“We shall all miss you so much,” she
continued. “You have contributed so in-
estimably to the success of our hops and
other entertainments that it will be in-
deed hard to exist without you. But I
don’t think I exactly comprehend your
meaning when you say you are both sorry
and glad to leave. Haven’t you enjoyed
yourself here?”

“Indeed I have,” responded Clarence,
heartily, “for you girls have certainly
made it most enjoyable for me. I shall
miss the round of gayety and these de-
lightful informal tete-a-tetes very much.
It is on this account that I am sorry to
leave.”

“Then why are you glad you are going?”
interrogated Clara, with feminine inqui—
sitiveness, not particularly pleased with
the turn things were taking.

“Well,” replied Clarence, as he gazed
abstractedly at the moon- besparkled
water, “we have been good friends, Miss
Katchum, “and there can be no harm in
my intrusting you with the reason for
my desire to leave, inasmuch as I depart
to-morrow. On the' day after I meet at
the pier the steamer upon which are those
I hold most clear in life—my wife and chil-
dren, who have been visiting at her old
home in England, and”—

But he was alone.

Little Things.

An interesting feature of the increased
demand for flags since the war is the fact
that everybody now wants to be sure that
the flag he is buying contains exactly the
right number of stars. A flag manufac-
turer says that while before the war peo-
ple were not particular about this, they
look to it now every time.

In Italy there is a Government fund for
providing marriage portions for poor
young girls. Every year $2,000,000 is thus
distributed. The applicant must prove
that she is of good character, has no
means, and that the young man who
wishes to marry her has a trade.

In Illinois a law was enacted last year
prohibiting the employment of any alien
as a peace officer, or as a deputy sheriff,
special constable, or special policeman in
any part of that State, or by any of its
local authorities. All persons thus em-
ployed must be American citizens, and
must have been actual residents for one
year of the county in which they may be
employed.

Aphorlsms of Napoleon.

We walk faster when we walk alone.

Libery and equality are magic words.

Misfortunes have their heroism and
their glory.

Death may expiate faults, but it does
not repair them.

Uncertainty is painful for all nations

. and for all men.

We are strong when we make up our
minds to die.

Judgment in extreme cases should be
guided by precedent.

Independence, like honor. is a. rocky is-
land without a beach.

To really understand a man we must
judge him in misfortune.

Indecision and anarchy in leaders lead
to weakness and anarchy in results.

When we have drunk the cup of pleas—
ure to the dregs, allwe want is rest. _

We are all destined to die. Can a few
days of life equal the happiness of dying
for one’s country?
. We can only escape the arbitrariness of
the judge by placing ourselves under the
depotism of the law.-

The War Record of Ancient Days.

In primitive times, when man went into
the fight, it is hardly supposable that
anything like a roster was kept, no army
bulletin printed, “dead, missing, wound—

ed.” According to tradition, the method .

employed to record the losses in battle
was simple. Before going into the fight
every man took a, stone and deposited it
in a. heap. After the battle the survivors
took away each _, one a stone. Nothing
was easier than :to count these stones
which were uncalled for. The remainder
showed the loss of life.
