north of the KnnsasXcbmska tine and arc dominated by the railway mergers that make for Pacific M ports Because the Constitution realizes the tremendous necessity of the canal to the Southern States

Republicans at the last ses sion of Congress when they had the opportunity It is safe to r say that it would not have boon fulfilled at all at any regular session because the people responsible could have excused themselves by saying that it was inipossible to put it through i in the face of tho other regular business Roosevelt did not in E tend that any such loophole should be loft and he therefore ti called the extra session for tho consideration of that ono sub iject Tho result is seen It is said that tho Senate will kill or seriously cripple tho t k bill but it will not dare to do

NO SUBSTITUTE MR JOHN ELDER ON TilE OLD FIDDLERS CONTEST Hardinsbnrg Ky Nov 10 1003 Mr John D bbage Dear SirsIsee in this weeke of the News a letter from Mr ra L concerning the Old Fiddlers contest My opinion and Mr Ashleys are quite different I think everything was done fair and I think the judges gave the first prize to the man that deserved it for I think Mr Stewart played what would be termed old time music Im sure every piece ne played was played fifty years ago And I think if Mr Ashley could hear some of the real upto date music ho would see quite a con trast between that Mr Stewart played and what is called late music Mr Ashley was like myself play ing for the f25 but I knew when I saw Mr Stewart in Cloverport that we had all as well lay down our fiddle and bow for I had heard hint play enough to know what he could do Im perfectly satisfied myself over the contest and if they ever have another one Im going to enter for I enjoy such sport a+ well as a man coull I have hoard that they are aiming to have an old fiddlers contest at Hnrdinsbnrg and I hope they will and I hope Uncle Fuller will become reconciled over the one they gave at Cloverport and be ready for the one at Hardlnsburg if they give it and maybe he will be the successful man provided he is allowed to select some of the judges As ever yours Jonn H Elder Hnrdinsbnrg Ky Work Finished at Cannery The worn of

Site For a City lu the World Constantinople looks much better from the water than It does when viewed ashore The tourist who touches at the port remains on board and sees the city only from the sell retains an entirely dlffviunt Impression from that of him who goes ashore Seen from the water Constantinople Is very beauti ful Seen from the shore It Is the apotheosis of everything that Is filthy and foul I do not suy that It Is un worthy of a visit but I do say that he who stays on board will take away a much moro picturesque Impression The site of Constantinople Is Ideal There Is probably no finer site for a city In the world It Is situate on the Bosporus between the Mediterranean and the Black seas It lies between Eu rope mid Asia for Scutari Is part of Constantinople and Scutari Is on the Asiatic shore It is cut off by natural boundaries Into municipal divisions for the Golden Horn divides Stamboul the Mohammedan from Oalata the Christian city So the Bosporus divides Scutari the Asiatic from Con stantinople the European city yet nil of these places make one great city under the general name of Constanti nople And this great city Is guarded also by nature It has the sea of Mar morn close at hand with fortifications at either end of this great water high way rendering the city unassailable by sea It has a peninsular conforma tion which also renders it properly for titled impregnable by land as well as by sea It is as If San Francisco were to have batteries of heavy artillery all around her water front from India basin to the presidio from the presidio to Lake Merced and then across the neck of the peninsula from Lake Mer ced to India basin With all these fac tors In Its favor no wonder that Con stantinople hits always been looked upon us an Ideal site for a city

from 1800 to 1000 in hest illustrated by figures published by the Bureau of Statistics of the Depart ment of Commerce and Labor They tell at n glance the romantic story of the development of the nation of its increase in area in population In wealth in resources agriculture in manufacturing in minerals in com merce and in education To the casual observer this remarkable century of growth told in plain matter of fact figures illustrates the unchecked ad vancement of the nation from a few millions of people skirting the Atlan tic coast to one of the great powers ot the world unequaled in wealth and resources It shows what has been accomplished by an alert progressive energetic industrious inventive con structive and Indomitable people in a period covering only a small part of the worlds history It is a record unequaled and which needs no adorn ment to add to its interest Our greatest development has been of course in the last three decades of the century In many instances figures for the first half of the century are not obtained because prior to 1850 the statistical records of the government are comparatively meager Yet they are sufficient to furnish a most Interesting basis of comparison- In 1800 onr area was only1 827844 square miles and our population 5UOS 483 In 1000 our area not including Alaska andpur insular possessions was 3025000 and onr population 70 303m In the beginning of the nineteenth century there were only 041 people to each square inilt but while our area had been more than quadrupled when the twentieth centu ry began the number of inhabitants to each square mil had increased to 2522 or a little more than four t ti mes that in 1800 There is no record of the arrival of immigrants prior to 1820 when but 8385 were admitted Compare that witn the total of 448572 in 1000 or that of almost a million in tne fiscal year which ended with June 30 last The total wealth of tho nation in 1850 when it was lint recorded was 7133780000 or 307119 for each in habitant In 1100 it had increased to the enormous sum of 04300000000 or 123580 per capita n fourfold in crease in the average wealth of each individualThe national debt in 1880 in eluding both interest bearing and non interest bearing obligations was fS2 070204 a total per head of 1503 The debt had almost been wiped out with the end of the fiscal year of 1840 when it aggregated only 3573344 or less than that of many a corporation Vt the pre ent time The debt of 1810 epresented an obligation of 21 cents saytheresI statement then there are uncommon colds

IIEARD IN WASHINGTON CHURCH Washington Nov 10At the ser vices tonight at the New York Ave nue Presbyterian Church In commem oration of the 100th anniversary of its founding President Roosevelt de livered an address from the pew occu pled by Abraham Lincoln during hid residence in Washington as President of the United States In the Lincoln pew with the President were Secretary of State Hay who was private secretary to President Lincoln Mrs Hay and Secretary to the President Loeb Secretary Shaw Secretary Moody Secretary Hitchcock and Maj orGen John M Breckenridge U S A retired accompanied tile Presi dent and coupled pews near him Jus tice Harlan of the United States Su preme Court presided over the ser vicesTne ceremonies opened with an organ prelude followed by the sing ing of the nymn Onward Christian Soldiers After prayer by the Rev B F BIttinger D D John Bach MoMnstew LLD of the University of Pennsylvania delivered a scholarly address on The American of 1808 Justice Harlan then introduced the President whose address might well be entitled The American of 1H08 The Predld nt said Mr Justice Lot me first express the appreciation that all of us feel to Prof MoMusters for his exceedingly interesting address and the address showed what he oan justly claim to bethe historian of the people of the United States For what he has told us was what the people didnot mere 1r what the outward forms and ob servance were but what the life of the people was a century ago And Mr Justloe I think that the recital has left in the winds of all of us the feeling teat wliIe we revere our an cestors we tire not wholly disconten ted tbnt we live in the present day To each generation comes its allot ted task and no generation is to be excused for failure to perform that task No generation can ulaiiu as nil rxeBBtt for failure the fact that it is not guilty of the sins of the proceed ing generation It wasp surprise to- weI suppose it was a surprise to many of WIto realize that a hundred years ago in the days ol the fatheiz the lot of the poor deutor wan so hard It fceetaa incredible to us now that there could have been such callousness to the undworved human suffering then I hope sincerelyI that a century hence it will seem equally incredible to the Americans of that time that there should ue corruption and venality iu public life tJVpplausa We can divide and must divide on party lines as regards certain yat5F tiong As regards the deepest as regards the vital question we uannot afford to divide and 1 havo the right to challenge the best effort of every American worthy of the name in putting down by every means in hit power corruption in private life and above allcorruptiou in pubic life Applause And remember you the people of this government by the peo ple that while the public servant the legislator the executive officer the Judge lire not to be excused If they fall short of their duty yet their doing their duty cannot avail unless y6mlo yours In the

country if he could sit in Abraham Lincolns pew und not feel the solemn sense of the associa tions borne In upon him and I wish to thank the people of this church for that reverence for the historic past for the sense of historic continuity which has made them keep thin pow unchanged and I hope it will remain unchanged in this church us long as our country endures We navn not too many monuments of the past and let us keep every little bit of associa tion with that which was highest and best of the part as a reminder to us equally of what we owe to those who have gone before and of hOW we should show our appreciation This evening I sit in this pew of Abraham Lincolns together with Abraham Lincolns private secretary who for my great good fortune now serves as Secretary of State in my Cabinet Applause If ever thera lived a President whodurlng his time uf service needed all of consolation and of strengh that he could draw from the unseen powers above him it was Abraham Lincoln and patient mighty LIncolnwho worked and suffered for the people when he hud lived for them to give his life at end If ever there was a man who practically applied what he taught in our churches it was Abraham Lincoln The other day I was reading on the suggestion Mr Hay a little speech not often quoted of his yet which seems to me one ol the most remark able that ne over made delivered right after Ins selection I think to a body of serenades ho had come if mv memory is correct from Balti moro Md and called for an address from him from tho House It is extraordinary to rend that speech and to realize that the man who had just uome successfully through a great political contest in which he felt that so mnuii was at stake for tin nation that he had no time to think whether or not anything was at stake for himself The speech is devoid of the least shade of bitterness There is not a word of unseemly triumph over those who had been defeated There is not a word of glorification of himself or in any improper sense of bin party There is an earnest appeal now that the election is over now that the civ ic strife has been completed for all decent wen who love the country to join together in service to the country and in the speech he uses a thoroughly Lincolnlike phrase when- h says I hi v Cnot willingly j hinted a thorn in the breast of any man thus trying to make clear that ho had nothing to say against any opponent no bitterness toward any opponent that all he wished was that those who opposes him should join with those who favored him in working toward a common end It would be trite to say anything about Lincoln and yet I am going to point to one thing In reading his works and speeches his addresses one Is struck by the fact that a he went higher and higher all personal bitter ness seemed to die out of him In the LincolnDouglas debates one can still catch now and then a note of personal antagonism The tuna was In the arena antI as the blows were given and taken you could see now and then that he had a feeling against his anta gonist When he became President und fatal the crisis that he had to face from that time on I do not think that you can find an expression a LlncolnsI notion to thIS cause was to treat that ho neither could nor would have feel Ing against any individual- In closing Mr Justice let me say In thanking you of this church the church so closely kindred to my own Dutch Reformed Church In thank ing you for asking me here let me say how peculiarly glad I am that In the chair sits one man a Justice of the Supreme Court and that I could be escorted hero by another man who has lust served his connection from one of the highest places in the nited States Army both of whom you Justice Hnrlan you Gen Breckenrldge both of whom had en jjed the wonderful privilege of J i1 hllt proving by their deeds the faith that was in them in the days that tried mens souls both of whom did theIr part in holding up the hands of mighty Lincoln and both of whom were born in the Stato of Lincolns birth Applause Justice Harlan then requested Sec retary Hay to speak Mr Hay spoke of his association with Mr Lincoln of the memories called up by a return to tho pew in which he so often sat beside the great President and paid n notablel tribute to the memory of the martyr After Mr Hays address the congregation arose an sang My Country Tis of Thee and remained standing as the President passed out JUST WHAT YOU NEED Chamberlains Stomach and Lher Pills When you feel dull after eating When you have no appetite When you have a bad taste iu the month

was aI recognized peer among the favorite ac tresses on the English stage anti n wo man whose attractions of face nut manner were of a high order The bill for the evening under consid eration was Adrlenne lAJCouvreiir and In no part hind the actress hecu more natural and effective Her tri umph was secure The player had every stimulus to mil pear at her best on this particular even Ing for the audience frivolous vole tile taking Its character from the loose weak king was unusually complaisant through the presence of the 11rst gen tleman of Europe As the last of th Georges declared himself In good hu mor so every toady grinned and every courtly Ilunky swore In the billings gate of that profanely eloquent period that the actress was a monstrous flue womanWith rare discretion and spirit had the latter played a queenly figure In that ribald gross gathering She had reached the scene where the actress turns upon her tormentors those noble ladles of rank and position and launch es the curse of a soul lashed beyond endurance Sweeping forward to con front her adversaries about to face them her troubled glance chanced to fall Into one of the side boxes where wore seated a certain foreign marquis somewhat notorious and a lady of Insolent patrician bearing The anticipated action was arrested for at sight of the nobleman and his companion Adrienne swayed slightly as though moved by a new overpowering emotion Only for a moment she hesitated then fixing liar blazing eyes upon the two and lifting her arm threateningly the bitter words flowed from her lips with an earnestness that thrilled the audience A pallor overspread the face of tho marquis while the lady drew back behind the draperies almost as IIf In fear At the conclusion of that effort tho walls echoed with plaudits The nctrosa stood as In a trance IIer face was pale her figure seemed changed to stone and the light went out of her eyes She fainted and fell and the curtain descended quickly The woman by the marquis side who had trembled at first now forced a laugh as she said The trollop ran curse Let us go Together they left the box the marquis regretting the temerity which had led him to bring his companion to the theater lie too was secretly un nerved and when they entered the carriage they seated themselves as far impart us possible the marquis detesting the lady and she tor her part disliking him just as cordially Next day the critics referred to the seems with glowing words while In the coltee houses they discussed the propo sition Should an actress feel the emo tion sho portrays With a cynical smile tho marquis read the different accounts of the performance when he nail his companion found themselves in tho old stagecoach en route for Hrlghton He felt no regret for his ac lionhad not the Prince of Wales taught the gentlemen of his kingdom that It was fashionable to desert ac tresses lint he not left the divine Ierdltn to languish after snubbing her right royally In Hyde park Disdainfully the lady In the coach regarded her husband and It was evident 77ic Itlttor words flowed from her UplIII that tho ties of affection which bound these two travelers together on lifes I road were neither strong nor enduring I Yet they were traveling together thick wny was the same their destination but that belongs to the future The marquis hud bees relieved In his mind after a consultation with a distin guished barrister and moreover was pleased at the prospect of leaving tllllI Island of fogs for the sunny shores of France The tines were exciting the country on the verge of proposed elec tort reforms Rut In France the new social system hail sprung into existence and lamentable fnetlduty toward ones country had assumcdan empire su perior ju ancient devotion toward kings To stem this tide and attach himself closely to King Charles X was the marquis ambitious purpose For thl he hind espoused a party In marrying a relative of the royal princes thus enhancing the tics that bound him t the throne awl throwing to the wind his Pcrdlta whose charms lad otuc held him in follys chains Did ho re gret the step Has ravening asplra tlon any compunction any contrite visI

superior air that manner which said as plainly as spoken words Now I have playethe tyrant Now I see a way to liber ty equality fraternity And beneath the baneful gleam of that look of en lightenment my lord cursed under his breath roundly The only Imperturba ble person of the party was Francois the marquis valet whoso impassive countenance was that of a stoic apathetic to tho foibles of his betters a philosopher of the wardrobe to whom a wig awry or a loosened bucklo seem ed of more moment than a derangement of time marriage tie or the dls order of conjugal affection Not long thereafter the player left for America where she procured an en gagement In New York city and so tar as London was concerned she might have found rest and rctlredness In the waters of Lethe- CIIAPTEIL I- IT was a drizzly day in the Shad en go valley A mist had settled down upon the old inn lost to view was the landscape with Its varied foliage Only the immediate foreground was visible to a teamster who cane down the road the trees with dripping branches and the inn from the eaves of which water fell to time ground with depressing monotony the well with its pall for watering the horses and the log trough In whose limpid waters a number of speckled trout were swimming The driver drew up his horses before the Travel ers Friend as the place was roamed and called out imperatively Hello there No one appearing he leaned over and Impatiently rapped on the door with the heavy oak butt end of his whip Still there was no response Again he knodiisd this time louder than before and was preparing for un even more vigorous assault upon the unhospltablo entrance when the door swung buck and the landlord a tall gaunt indi vidual confronted the driver Well I heard ye he said testily Are ye coming in or shall I bring It out during It out was the gruff re sponse of the disgruntled teamster Shortly afterward mine host reap pea red with a tankard of generous di mensions Tie teamster raised It slowly I drained it to the bottom dropped a coin Into time landlords hand nuked his whip In a lively manner and moved on The steam from his horses min gled with till mist and he was soon swallowed up although time cheerful snap of hits whip could yet be heard Then that became inaudible and the bOil I fll l11 who had stood for a brief space in the doorway empty tankard In hand reentered the house satisfied tint no more transient patronage would be forthcoming at present Going through nn outer room called by courtesy a parlor the landlord pass ed Into nn apartment which served as dining room sitting room and bar Hero the glow of a wood fire from the well swept hearth and the aspect of the varied assortment of bottles IlasscsI and tankards gave more proof of tho fitness of the appellation on the creak lug sign of the roadhouse than ap I poured rom a superficial survey of ItsI exterior and far from neat stable yard or from that chilly forbidding room so I common especially In American reed dences In those days the parlor Tho ceiling of this dining room was blackened somewhat and the huge beams overhead gave an Idea of the substan tlal character of the construction of the place That fuel was plentiful ap geared In evidence In the open fireplace where were burning two great logs while piled up against the wall were many other good sized sections of hick orySeated at a respectful distance from this cheerful conflagration was a young man of perhaps five and twenty whose travel stained attire Indicated he lad but recently been on the road Upon a chair near by were a riding whip and lint time latter spotted with mud and testifying to the rough character of the road over which he hind come He held a short pipe to his lips and blew clouds of smoke toward the fire while upon a table within arms length rest ed a glass of some hot mixture But In spite of his comfortable surroundings IIofIII Is n throno of felicity Ills counte nance well bronzed as a weather tried troopers Was harsh gloomy almost morose pot un unhandsome face IUII set in such a severe cast tho observe- Involuntarily wondered what expert ence had Indited that scroll Tall large of limb muscular as was apparent oven in a restful pose he looked an athlete of the most approved type ac tive and powerful Mine host having found his gues taciturn bad himself become genial and stow remarked as he entered I hear things are kind of onscttled in France I see in a Syracuse paper that Louis Philippe Is no longer king tint he and hits queen have fled to Eng land Perhaps now inwardly con gratulating himself on his shrewdness you left Paris tor political reasons The stranger deliberately emptied his pipe and thrust it Into his pocket while the landlord impatiently awaited the Whensit came however it was not calculated to allay the curiosity of his questioner youngoman coldly In slow but excellent Eng lish to hart continuously at the heels of your guests Oh no offense meant No offense Hope none Ml be taken stammered tho landlordThen he recovered himself and his dignity by drawing forth a huge wine colored silk handkerchief sot with white polkadots anti ostentatiously and vigorously using it This ear splitting operation having onco more set him up In his own esteem he resumed his at tentions to the stranger I didnt know he added with an outburst of honesty but what you might bo some nobleman in disguise A nobleman said the other with ill concealed contempt My name is SaintProsper plain Ernest Snint Prosper I was n soldier Now Im an adventurer There you Kara it all in a nutshellThe surveyed his guests figure with undisguised admiration I Well you look like a soldier he remarked You are like one of those soldiers who came over from France to help us in the Revolution This tribute being silently accepted the landlord grew voluble as his guest continued reserved Wo have our own troubles with lords too right here In Now York state he said confidentially We have our land barons descendants of the patroons and holders of thousands of acres and we have our bolters too who are making n big stand against feudalismThereupon he proceeded to present the subject In all its details to the 10- 1dlerhow the tenants were protesting against the enforcement of wheat tier now deemed unjust claims and woe demanding the abolition of permanent leaseholds how they openly resisted the collection of rents and had Inau gusted an aggressive antlrent war against tyrannical landlordism His lengthy and rambling dissertation was finally broken In upon by a rumbling on the road as of carriage wheels drawing near and the sound of voices The noise sent time bonifaco to the window and looking out ho discovered n umbering coach drawn by two heavy horses which came dashing up with a great semblance of animation for a vehicle of Its weight followed by a wagon loaded with diversified and gaudy paraphernalia Some troopers I guess commented the landlord In a tone which indicated the coning of these guests was not en tirely welcome to him Yes he add ed discontentedly theyre stage folk sure enough The wagon which contained several persons was driven into the stable yard where It was unloaded of drops and wings representing a street a forest a prison and so on while tho stagecoach with a rattle and a Jerk amid a flourish of the drivers whip stopped at the front door Springing to the ground the driver opened the door of the vehicle and at the same time two other men with their heads mufiled against the wind nnd rain leisurely descended from the top The landlord now stood at the entrance of the Inn a sour expression on ids face Certainly if the travelers had expected In him the traditional glowing coun tenance with the apostolic Injunction to use hospitality without grudging writ upon It they were doomed to dis appointmentA skirts and there emerged from the interior of the coach first a little dried up old lady whose feet were Inclosed in prunella boots with Indian embroidered moccasins for outside protection second a young woman who hastily made her way into tho hostelry displaying a trim pair of ankles third a lady resembling the second and who the landlord afterward learned was her sister fourth n graceful girl above me dlum height wearing one of those pro yoking quilted silk moods of the day with cherry colored lining known as kiss me If you dare hoods Then followed n lark melancholy dividual the utility teat whoso waist rest of figured worsted wee much frayed and whose toothpick collar was the worse for the Journey He preced ed a more natty person In a bottle green shad belly coat who strove to curry himself as though ho were fash ionably dressed Instead of wearing clothes which no longer could conceal their slmbblnnss The driver called In theatrical parlance the old mnn was a portly personage In a blue coat with velvet collar nnd gilt buttons a few of which were missing while the ruffles of Ma shirt were In sad plight for in stead of protruding elegantly n good three or even four Inches their glory had gone and they lay ignominiously flattened upon the bosom of the wearer A white choker rivaled In hue the toothpick collar of the melancholy individual The taverns stable boy immediately began to remove the trunks into the main hallway This overgrown husky lad evidently did not share his employ ers disapproval of tho guests for he gazed In open eyed wonder at the sis I hularglance strayed to tho young girl To his juvenile imagination an actress appeared la the glamour of a verltnbli goddess But she had obviously that tender consideration for others which belongs to humanity for she turned to smiletremoving from his shoulders the wet Petersham overcoat and placing it on a chair regarded him with a look of filial anxiety Yet their appearance be lied the assumption of such relation ship lie was hearty florid and sturdy of English type while she seemed a daughter of tile south a figure more fitting for groves of orange and cypress than for this rugged northern wilder nessThe emotion of the stable boy as ho gazed at her and the forbidding mood of tho landlord were broken In upon by the tiny old lady who in a largo voice remarked- A haven at last Arc you the land lordYes maam testily replied that per sonI am pleased to meet you sir exclaimed the melancholy individual as he extended a hand so cold and clammy that shivers ran up and down the back of the host when he took it gingerly We are having fine tragedy weather sir A fire at once landlord command ed the would be beau- Refreshments will be in order ex claimed she of the trim ankles And show me the best room in the house remarked her sister Mine host bewildered by this shower of requests stared from ono to the other in helpless confusion but finally collected his wits sufficiently to usher the company Into the taproom with Here youll find a fire but as for InlllI cating the reticent guest already occupies it The young man at the fire thus forced prominently into notice arose slowlyYou are mistaken landlord he said curtly hardly glancing at the players I no longer occupy It since these ladles have conic Your complaisance does credit to your good nature sir exclaimed the old man But we cannot take advan tnge of It It Is too good of you remarked the elder sister with a glance replete with more gratitude than the occasion de manded Really though we could not think of it Thank you thank you Joined In the wiry old 1 lady bobbing up mind down like a miniature figure moved by the unseen haul of the showman Allow me sir and she gravely tendered him a huge snuffbox of tortoise shell which he declined whereupon she continued You do not use It New fashions new habits Though whether for the better Is not for me to say She helped herself to a liberal por tlon and passel time box to the portly old gentleman Here the landlord In a surly tone told time stable boy to re move the gentlemans things and show the ladles to their rooms Before go ing the girl In the provoking mood now unfastened and freeing sundry rebel lious brown curls where the moisture yet sparkled like dew turned to the oldmanYou are coming up

disagreeable time of yenr sir he observed to the soldier who had returned to his seat before tho table Twice on the road we nearly broke down and onco the wagon dumped our properties In the ditch Meanwhile to make matters worse the ladles heaped reproaches upon these gray hairs This sir to the man who was considered one of the best whips in old Devonshire countyThe other did not answer immedi ately but regarded the speaker with the look of one not readily disposed to make acquaintances His conclusions were apparently satisfactory however for he presently vouchsafed the re markYou are the manager I presume I enjoy that honor returned the loquacious stranger But my duties are manifold As driver of time char lot I endure the constant apprehension of wrecking my company by the way side As assistant carpenter when we cannot find n stage it Is my task to erect one As billposter and license procurer treasurer and stage manager my time is not so taken up sir as to preclude my going on and assuming c characterA of variety observed the young man politely if indifferently Yes full of ups and downs as the driver of the property wagon said when we entered this hilly district replied the manager with the contentment ot- a man who has found n snug haven after a hard ride in a comparatively unbroken country Affluence we may know but poverty is apt to be our roam panionTo the other deemed no response necessary and n silence tell between them broken only by the simmering water in the Iron kettle time sputtering of the sap in the burning logs and the creaking without of the long balancing pole that suspended the moss covered bucket The wind sighed In the chim ney and the wooing flames sprung to meet It while the heart of the fire glowed In a mass of coals between the andirons Tho old gentleman before the blaze began to outrival the kettle In steaming From his coat tails a thin veil of mist ascended his face beaming through the vapor with benign felicity Then he turned and toasted the other side and the kettle reigned supreme until he thawed once more and time clouds ascended surrounding him like Jupiter on the celestial mount At that the kettle hummed more nngrlly and the old gentlemans face beamed with satisfaction A snug company sir he said final ly glowing upon tho impassive face before him like a tight ship can weather a little bad weather Perhaps you noticed our troupe The old lady Is Mrs Adams She Is nearly sev enty but can dance a hornpipe or n reel with the best of them The two sisters arc Kate and Susan Duran both coquettes of the first water Our Juve

worthy of the bearer of the dish I remarked Adonis so pointedly that tho landlords daughter over whelmed with confusion nearly drop ped the platter miniature porker and all Whereupon Kate cast an
