She withdrew from her connection with the school and made all peparatlons for her wedding This, hoxvever, never took place. Three times was tlie day tlxed and as often for some unintelligible reason postponed by Mr Turner.

The big oriental fruit bats, or flying foxes, so familiar In India, Ceylon and the M ilayun region, feed on ail sorts of soft fruits exeept acid ones, such as oranges; are especially fond o'~ ligs and guavas and are a destructive pest to orchards and gardens In some parts of Java, foi example, no delicate fnilt can be raised except by protect ing the trees xvlth nets and lighting off the nightly forays of bands of kalontrs. They live and travel in vast compa nies, roosting by day on chosen trees, where they hang by one hind leg. each protected from the sun's glare and from rain In the closely wrapped man tle of its wings, and large branches fre quently break under the weight. At sunset they fly away to their feeding grounds, scattering over a xvlde area. Where a tig tree or banana thicket attracts a croxvd the roughest lighting begins over coveted plunder, each one screaming, clawing, biting and strug gling to seize something and get away to a secure retreat to enjoy it. There he hangs bv one foot, and. grasping the fruit he has secured in the claws and opposable thumb of the other, he hasti ly reduces it to lumps, with which he stuffs his cheek pouches until they be come distended like those of a monkey. Later he chews and swallows tills food at leisure At daxvn all return to their roosts and. says Tickcll, "hook themselves along tlie branch's, scrambling about hand over hand with some speed, bit ing each other severely, striking out with th'> long claws of the thumb, shrieking and cackling without inter mission."

Colors, sights and sounds of nature pent in words shrivel and lose their vi tality. Odors of the forest, breezes from flic sea, delicate aromas of tho dawn, exhalations from dew laden Ileitis, entrancing pure breath of Infan cy how can we find among dumb, In expressive human words any fair equivalent, any Just translation of •jucli rare effects and sensations In tho world of nature as these? llow shall we Interpret myriad shades of ona color in the few words at our com mand? llow shall we put the feeling and the ecstasy of nature Into the for mula of mental apprehension and Into the terms of literary expression? It Is as hopeless a task as If one stood as interpreter beside some charming poet of alien tongue and could catch only here and there a word and could render that word only by some uncouth paraphrase or by some term of remote or unaccepted meaning. What charm# what coherence even, could wo tlnd In such inadequate transference to anoth cr sphere of what was so beautiful in Its own? So to say that the sea Is blue does indeed give a certain Impres sion of one color rather than another and In a crude way suggests a general tint to our mental vision. But how opaque aud dead is the one word "blue" when held up as the reflecting mirror to our minds of that world of trauslu cent sapphire glory let down from heaven upon earth, air and ocean-—that suffusion of azure from cerulean reser voirs which drenches nature on rare midsummer days! We have seen such flooding molten turquoise light like gems liquefied and poured over sea coast, mountain and plain when It has seemed as if the chalices of tho angels of the ether and the sun kept pouring down new tides of graded sky tones on tho glorified landscape. We have seen rock and flower, cloud and tree, hill and valley, swim aud seem to float In every gradation of tho great monotone of color around us, while bar after bar of Indigo, violet, blue, lay far upon the son. reiterating In a thousand changing shades that end of the rnlnbow gamut of color In the endless enchantments of Its tremulously sliding, blending, ever overlapping, Infinitely shaded scale. Oh, again, take the word silence as the Image of that great, full breathing, resonant stillness of the forest far from the dwelling of men. How tint and un responsive and eeholess Is the word symbol when hung up as tho silvery sounding board of what nature calls her stillness. The term silence Is but a dumb Interpreter of the serene, sound less, ongoing life In the deep woods In that silence there Is speech of thou sand tougues, inaudible nnd voiceless, complex and Intricate, as the flexured Interweaving of leafy branches over head or the gray nnd gold green tints that sift down upon the ragged roots and llchened rocks that roughen het forest aisles.

[Special Correspondence.] Philadelphia, August 21. While the Republican campaign ir this state will not be formally opener for at least a couple of weeks, then has been a vast amount of work al- j ready done in preparation for a vig orous and spirited canvass of every j county in the commonwealth in the in terest of the entire Republican ticket The Republican party has nevei started out under more favorable aus pices, with its exceptionally strong anr popular candidates running upon a plat form which has been taken as a mode |by Republican state organizations [throughout the country, eager to get ,into line with the advanced thought 'of Roosevelt leadership and to have tlu party placed squarely upon record at officially endorsing and loyally sup porting the national administration. Stuart a Popular Candidate. The nomination of Edwin S. Stuari for the governorship lias spiked tin j guns of the opposition to the Repuhli- | can party in Pennsylvania. I Not a word of criticism of him liar been heard since he was mad tlu ; standard bearer of his party. His ptii> j •lie record and his private life comment' j him to the voters, and his sincerity ol , ipurpose and his fealty to the cause ol ' Republicanism have never been ques- I ;tioned. ' With his colleagues on the state picket, all of whom have been received ( with universal commendation, Mr. Stu art is prepared to meet his fellow-citi- j ■zens face to face in every county in tlu i (state and to assure them of his inten- ; jtion to faithfully and conscientiouslj j |t;arry out every pledge made in his ac ' jceptanceof the nomination for governor ; Mr. Stuart stands squarely upon tlu 'platform of the Republican state con vention, which is conceded to be a most comprehensive, progressive and thor oughly up-to-date document. In his letter of acceptance, Mr. Stuari declared that this platform clearly de fines the new political duties that have arisen from new conditions, and thai the party stands pledged to enact legis lation to hold in check and control corporations and to secure equal rights to all. Must Have Two-Cent Rate. | Since Mr. Stuart put himself on rec ord as heartily in accord with the de- Iniand for a Hat rate of two cents a mile for railroad fare, some of the railroads have made a slight reduction in theii rate. When the Republican nominee was interrogated upon this issue ht promptly announced that he proposed jto adhere strictly to the promises made in the Republican platform, and to in jsist upon legislation which will meet the full demands of the people. Mr. Stuart's manly attitude on the question of freight and passenger rate 'discrimination was clearly set forth when he said: "Our transportation companies are common carriers, to which have been given special and valu able privileges primarily for the public good, and they are required by the law, by sound public policy and by the common honesty that should govern the management of public trusts to grant equal and exact privileges to all. They must be made to understand that the people of this commonwealth will not tolerate an unjust discrimina tion which gives to one and with holds from another under like con ditions, which builds up the busi ness of a favorite few by crush ing competition. This iniquity must stop, and stop at once, and a policy of absolute fairness to all must be established and main tained." To Follow Roosevelt's Lead. One of the leading issues of the campaign will be the curtailment <>l corporate power wherever abuses of any character have be*:n revealed, and Mr. Stuart and his fellow candidates will in that respect be found to b<- ardent and enthusiastic supporters ol President Roosevelt as the logical and acknowledged leader in the enforce ment of this popular policy. One of the most gratifying features of the Republican canvass this year is the interest which Is being mani fested in the details of the prelimi nary work of the campaign by Repuh licans all over the state. Colonel Wesley It Andrews, chair man of the Republican state commit tee. has noted a large increase in ths correspondence and finds that the county committeemen are enthusiastic over the prospects of splendid majori ties for the entire Republican ii< k< t There have already been main re quests for mass meetings, and it is* 'eared that the -late eommitte wit/ he unable to supply enough ueakt i
