On 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.

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. C Black Diphtheria.

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. Plenty of Time.
