ROMANCE OF TEE WAR The battlo at last as finished. Tlio victory was lost and won. And while tho defeated army had fallen back to take shelter In the woods and mountain passes the victorious host had en camped npon tho field of action. A thick misty haze linng over tho landscape, through which tho setting snn shone like Q great copper shield burnished and ready for combat. Since early morn the battle had been in progress, and the carnage was fright ful. Even the sturdiest of the Burgeons had more than once turned pale as they worked over their improvised operating tables, and all had felt a sc.ns.Ulon of faintness that they did not care to own. In one corner of the Cold when tho fight hail been the hottest, In a little grove of half a dozen trees at the angle of a stone wall, knelt tho colonel of a Now York regiment beside tho prostrate form of his own lieutenant, a young man of English birth and a great fU' vorite among his comrades. Ills breath came slowly and painfully, and when he strove to spoautne ltreoioou weiieu up in bis throat so as to nlmoetchokonll utter ance. "Creston. my boy," said the colonel in the low voice which he til ways used when in the proeeueoof suffering for the col- t n '1 w a3 us kind aud ua gontio as a woman to tho sink "is tht.ru anything more that I ran do for yon any word or mes sage that you want to send? For you know" Creston'a lips parted with a faint ami almost lmperceptiblo motion, and the colonel bending low caught tho words. "Lift mo up." Raising the dying man to a half sit ting position, tho colonel held him in bis own strong arms and gently wiped tho red from irotn his lips. "Colonel" the words were woak and low "my vest open the tho pocket instue The exertion was so great that he could say no more. The colonel, opening tho vest, drew from an inner pocket a min iature, the portrait of a young and beautiful girl, so beautiful that even then the colonel could not help gazing upon the likeness with interest and ad miration. "And this? he questioned as ho held it np to tho eyes of his dying comrade. Tho polo foco of the sufferer grow strangely bright when he looked upon tne bit or painted ivory Lefore him. "In England," ho whispered, "she lives Densmond In Devonshire you'll remember take her this, yourself no one else. Find here in Densmond, Ame lia Burton. Tell her I didn't forget" A torrent of crimson lifeblood gushed from his lips, ond all was over. The colonel aroso, folded a blanket and placet! It beneath the head of the corpse. Then tuo nignt wmue gathered ana whispered among the trees and brushed with their dark pinions thejnight, cold drops that stood on the palp forehead of Herbert Creston. Already the snn was casting long shad ows over the landscape around the pretty l.ugiisii village or Densmond In Devon- sliire, for Densmond was pretty and everybody said so that is, everybody who bad ever been there said so. And as for those unfortunato beings who had not been there, they were so very much In the minority that no ono ever cared a straw what they said or thought The day had been hot nnd sultry, and with thq advent of the cooling breezes or evening every one who could pos sibly get cat of doors did so, for the nir was delicious now after tho overpower ing heat of the day. Along the dusty highway a man. well dressed and evidently a strangor in the rountry through which he was passing, was walking slowly, evidently absorbed In thought. He was about 40, of a bronzed complexion and dark hair, now slightly tinged with gray. On the whole ho was far from handsome, nor did tho scar or a saber wound across his foro- hcad add to his attractions. Just now he paused before a cottage that stood somewhat back from the pnb lio road, almost buried In flowers, like a modest and retiring cottage that it was. Bounds of happy laughter came from on arbor, concialed by the surrounding hedge. Colonel Nathaniel Pemberpansed butamoment, however, before he opened tho gate. "Can you tell me," he asked one of the party of young girls that met his view as ho entered, "if you know of any ono residing In this neighborhood by the name of of Amelia Burton?" "Yes, indeed," answered one of the young ladies, with a meaning smile, "bnt you'll have to hurry, though, for there will be no snoh person here after to Eight." "She she Is not sick not dying, is sher questioned the colonel hastily. "Oh, not at all," answered the young lady, with a pleasant laugh, "only she's going to be married to Lord Littel to- nigbt.- "Marriedr said the colonel, half to himself) then aloudi "Can you tell me where she lives? I most see her npon (justness something very Important. "It's not very far from bore. The house In the park that you see ou the left be longs to her father. But you must hur ry. If s after 6:90, and you've sea roe an hour." Colonel Pember turned and walked hastily along the road. "Married mar ried then I am too late. Perhaps not. I don't understand It. I can't." And with every step he took came the re train," Married, married, iuarritd." The next day Densmond was all ex- citement. The daughter of the Hoc Crof ton Burton had refused at the last moment to marry Lord Lorloose Littel. And then, too, the appearance of this suspicious looking America!. That must not be overlooked, Surely there was sometning in una, "It those as knew would tell." But the lion. Burton, M P., would tell nothing, and as Lord Lit tel had left for town that nii'iulii lie could tell nothing, and Miss Buri.m. she bad deolared that aha would t 11 i.nh tug. So there the matter rte l, am! like every other senaatiou w.ia airmail forgotten 10 days after.

Nor was it long In becoming common talk that the colonel had returned U &fiss Burton on the eve of her intruded wedding a bluod stained miniature, tin. token of a schoolgirl Invo fiat Bhe lui'l gtreo to Herbert Credit. u, the Mlltt naW do well, and that as slu- haw the jdotors, stained with uia lifl ,y, ,1, the old love had return'! .ud &Lu l.ud r. fused to marry an; . .

Tho trees, resplendent in their "garments of green," cast grateful shadows for Um noonday wanderer. And then the gardener Hoses everywhere. The air was one mass of perfume, delightful and overpowering, the first sweet gift of summer. Daring this time Miss Burton had not beefi seen by the village folk, save on one or two rare occasions, and those who had viewed her reported that sho was looking polo and sickly, and that she scarcely ever spoke. Now, however, at tho approach of summer sue nau turown ou ner gloomy aspect, laid aside the "Inky cloak" that sho had Insisted upon wear ing and had even gone so far as to ride ont into the country, nnd always with the colonel as a companion. One nurht they walked together in tho gardens that almost entirely surrounded The Oaks. There was no other light than that of the scars. As Amelia pansed the colonel plated his arm about her and hold her hand. "You have my answer?" ho questioned softly. Bhe raised her face slowly, 'incirnps met "It Is 'yeaf he asked. And sho answered "Yes." .

It is a most perfect representation of a camel and is formed of one piece of granite. This curiosity Is of colossal eizo, but perfectly proportioned. It is about CO feet high and is very whito and Bmooth. There are very few fissures on the sir- face, and they strangely are In tho proper places to form features.

In llnasnc'lids. ttx between 177H nnd 1701. tlio prnporliuii of Tot ws cnat to thii population vnrioil from 3 to S per cent. In severnl counties of the stnto of New York lliero wevo rjst nt tho election of 1888 almost one thlnl tu many votes ns tluro wiro inliabUanto. It Is tho linWt of many y oplo lo take It for Rtnnted tliat the onillt r h.slitii Hons of the (Jnllod HUtes wir.t tn.ire democriitle than tho prei-ont miw, ni tl that the tendency of themi times I t to put tho iKiIitlcnl power in tho hiiniui of n few men ami to tuko it away from tho multitude No such theory Is twrno ont by tho election returns, At ono ot the most hotly contented cloellnns In Virgin la, when Chief Justice Marshall's father was a candidate for metnbornhip In the houso of burgesses, or what would cor respond to assemblyman hero, thero was only ono voto cost to every 10 Inhabit ants, a ratio smaller than that cast in any county In this Btato for n grout many years. Thero was a property qualifica tion for electors In this contest, and It was frequently tho caw that tho voting, Instead of being by secret ballot, was viva voce. Thero wcro so few electors that they would nil como together on election day, and their names would 1m called, erery man naming his choice With all tho talk about tho lurgo voto of tho city of New York and the power of Its majorities toscttlo tho result In the state, It Is somewhat contradictory that tho election llgures should show ilnit New York lias the smallest ratio of voters do Inhabitants loci than half as large n tho ratio in many of tho rural comities, Brooklj-n comes nest nnd Duffalo thlnl. Throughout tho stato it is g. ueral that tho Democratic counties cast fewtr votes to the numlu r of their inhabitants than tho Republican counties. In Now York tlio liunilier of inhabit ints to each voter la fl.Rfl. in K'Iiil-S A O.! and In Erin r, (Hi iVhilo lu Corllandt ami Ottego the ratio is 8.11 to l! B lft in Yates, 11.05 In Gene see, D.ffil in Uelawan'.S Xi in AlUga:iy, .'J.SO in Madison, 3.37 in O-.itario. 8.20 in Bit Liv,T T.ffl, This hows n rnt'.o tv Ice as largo In Now XinU and iiliuost twice as largo In Brooklyn and Uti.l'alo as in tho rural counties. Thero aro two main reasons to nccount for this. Ono Is tho diOerenco in the election laws' In tho cities ami In the counties, and thu other Is the duTcreuco in tho character of iho population. It cannot 1 it .dUTcrcnco in politics, for Bohohario, ono of the few rural Demo cratic counties, shows n ratio of 3.18, and roeuo, another Democratic county, has it ratio of 8.88. Tho percentage of voters Is lower In tho cities than in tho rural iMatricts, Tho two counties of Schenec tady aud Bcholiario aru Democratic and contiguous, bcholiario Is n purely ngri cultural county, wlillo a great part of tho population of Schenectady county Is in Bchenectady, which is a nourishing little city. Schenectady lias 0,000 inoro population than Schoharie, but it casts several hundred fower votes, and thero Is a difference of a third In their ratios. Ono reason for the high ratios in Now York, Brooklyn and Buffalo Is the largo number of aliens in those cities. Tho nitons couut in tho population, but they do not count in the number of voters. According to tho state census New York's population la one-fourth alien, and the ratio In Buffalo is almost as high. Another thing is the dlJTerouco in elcC' rion laws. In the cities a man has to go to tho polling place twlco to voto once to register and unco to cast his ballot. In tho country ho has to go only once and that time to voto. Ills nams may bo put ou the registration list by his friends. A comparison of these returns with the election returns nt the time of the Revo lutionary war and tho adoption of tho constitution shows that political inter est is Increasing every year, and that tho percentage of those who participate In elections is also increasing. In Massa chusetts toward the close ot the List cen tury, when discussions respecting tho teueral constitution wcro going on and when thero had been an actual rebellion in one part of the stato, not over G per cent of tho population voted, although the census of those days shows that about three times that pcrccntago of men were entitled to voto. In New York stato nt the last election the censns nnd registra tions lists wero almost Identical in many districts, ami thero were sonio districts where there wero more votes cast'tliau the census fchoivetl of residents in tho dis trict in the spring when the census was token. It may be that to tho rich men and uen engrossed in tho management of largo business affairs politics and politi cal mutters are not relatively so Impor tant as they weru when tho United States began, but u ouiuitarison of the electlou returns shows that aside from tho widen ing of the franchiso the proportion of those who voto Is greater in this state than ever before.

Ono of the most astute business men In New York city, who has through his own efforts built up an enormous estab lishment, and who gives employment to hundreds of men, some of them at very Urge salaries, told me ho had very little difficulty In finding the right kind ot men for any department of his work.
