A Rtrert Ringer That Pnimlnd the French Capital For Three Month. Once, nnd once only, was It given to Taris to bo pugr.lrd by a street singer. The npparitlon only lasted three months, but whlln it lasted it Wns most perplex ing In n. Ono evening nil tho loungers on tho honlovnrds, who were sipping their beer, or "strangling n parrot," as tho French phraso hatli it to describo tho process of imbibing n doso of that mibtln poipon, nbsluth, wero mildly bored by observing the approach of three street musicians. Ono man lininllcd a piano, a second curried a violin mid n third, n tall, slight woman in deep mourning, her crape veil sweeping over her face, took np her station In (ween them. They paused nnd prepared for action, whereupon many people, know ing the vilcness and discord of street music, made ready to leave, when, tu tho utter nmnzotucnt of all, to thn ac companiment of two fairly gisid Instru ments, nroso in tho night air an exqui sitely modulated and very powerful fe male voice, singing, with n heartbreak In every note, (he wild wail of Trnvlatu over her approaching de-iTth, "Urim Din, luorir si glovane.

Thun ders of npplnuso und n rain of coin, both gold nnd silver, rewarded tho trio's ef forts, but they never gave but two songs per evening and then disappeared. Thn nilventurous men who followed the sup ple grace of tho woman's tall figure re turned discomfited, scared away by tho truculent nspect of her two companions. During that whole summer thn strange band would reappear every night, nnd every night would reap a harvest, but when tho summer departed they, too, vanished nnd never again re appeared.

GREENLAND'S SUMMER. rrnfoMor llntlprln Cermets Rome Popular M iMfonrcpt iolia Ahout It, As with many of tho foreign countries, there is n wrong impression existing in tho minds oven of well bred persons with reference to tho mil tiro of the pen insula of Greenland. It is supposed to bo n cheerless waste of ice mid snow, and indeed a land of desolation. On first ac quaintance tho country doca not seem calculated to inspire enthusiasm, but this finding soon wears nway mid tho returned traveler from (ireeuland is smitten with "tho nrctio fever," tho principnl symptom of which is n long, ing to return to theso nor I hern shores, l'rofessor Angclo Ileilpriu, in his inter esting account of tho 1'onry relief expe dition conducted by him, thus speaks of Greenland : "Onco tho foot has boon set upon tho mirrored rooks tho charms of this garden spot ono by ono unfold themselves. Tho littlo patches of green nro aglow with bright flowers, rich in tho colors which a bounteous nature has provided. The botanical oyo readily distinguished among theso mountain pink, tho dwarf rhododendron, several pieces of heath, the crowfoot, chickweod nud poppy, with their varying tints of red, white and yellow. Oay butterflies flit through the warm sunshine, casting their shad ows over 'forests of diminutive birch and willow. "Here and there a stray bee hums in search of sweets among tho pollen grains, while, from afar, wovon through the musio of gurgling rills and brooks, come the melodious strains of thousands of mosquitoes, who ever cheerfully loud tliolr aid to give voice to the landscape. Above this peaceful scene tower the dark red cliffs of basalt, which from a height of 9,000 feet look down on a sea of Mediterranean lovolluess, blue as the waters of Villafranoa and calm as the surfaoe of an interior lake. Over its bosom float hundreds of icebergs, the output of tho great Jaoobshavn glacier, 60 miles to the eastward, scattered like flocks of white sheep in pasture. "Such was the summer picture of the region about Disoo as it was found by tne writer in two suooessive seasons. There was little of that Greenland look about it which we habitually associate with the region, nothing of those terrors which to the average mind reflect the qualities of the arotio world."

In tho light of facts, Is astonish- In;;, unless indeed he takes the very small horn of his closing dilemma nnd fuses to vote nt. nil. Kvon Mr. Kelley will not deny that. tho slock In trade of tho nvorago old pnrly stumper Is hill lugs-gale mid thai tho successful campaigner is tho one that can most roundly nhttso tho oppos ing parties. Tho consciences of some men must rlnlnly play peculiar pranks with their posse-Horn w hen they will not per mit them to vote tho Prohibition ticket b-'cause their speakers use the naughty word, hypocrite, but will permit them to overlook all of thn scurrility of old parly orators, wink at.

In this county Ivtwei-n Weaver nud llonil, nnd the more recent Unlit In tho stale IMwccn ljuay und tho Hog Combine, nnd go on voting the ticket. Verily this Is strain ing at tho gnat and swallowing the camel with a vengeance. If the Piiiixsntawney .Spirif has cor rectly quoted Iho l'J.rinul)iii; a leading Itaptlst organ, Mr. Kelley stands In n 1 of quitting tho ministry of his church, that Is if ho wUIicb to bo con sistent. It reports certain ministers us calling prohibition candlilales "leinper- iinco cranks." Calls prohibition "riiir- bahyism, petticoat ism, socialism and populism, as being nn nggivgutn of political heresy nnd humbug." Certain ly the pure mind of our critic can not endoro this. This Is an near hillings- gate as we would expect, u nilnlHler to approach. I very much fear, however, that in political inaltors consistency, on Its journey from Jerusalem to Jeri cho, lias been set, upon bv roleVrs and beaten and left half dead, nnd priestly and Levitlcal passers by draw their rols's about, them and pass by on tho other sldo, leaving It to its fate. 2nd. "The misrepresentation of facts." Hut. ho falls to stato what fuels aro misrepresented. Ho complains that our speakers say tho government is of, by and for the saloon. Wo should bo happy to know that this Is untrue. Hut 1h It? Can a political party iioml nnto und elect a ticket without tho consent of tho saloon? Which Is Iho most potent factor In determining elec tions In Tleynolilsvlllo, tho tenehlngs of Mr. Kelloy nnd his colleagues of the different pulpits, or tho doctrines taught in nnd around tho saloons? When campaigner strikes tho town, does ho call together tho ministers nnd leading mombors of tho different churches for tho purpose of placing his Interests bo- foro tho pooplo or does ho call to his uld tho suloon olomont? His conclusion from this statement, viz: "that tho saloon has given us tho best govorninont, tho happiest pooplo and tho most prosperous country on the globe," ia no evidonoo of his intelli gence. Our form oi government was established before tho saloon became a factor In American politics and honoe had nothing to do with it. That we are the happiost poople Is strangely out of harmony with the social and indus trial unrest that prevadoa the atmos phere, and with the poverty and desti tution everywhei'0 prevalent. Our country is the most prosperous country on the globe, not because of the saloon but In Bplto of It. That the statement Is largoly true Is evidenced by the defer ence paid to the saloon by old partyists, guite recently, in talking with a re publican and a democrat on the subject, I oukod, "Why do you not, In your party platforms, antagonize tho saloon?" and both repllod, "That would mean political suloido." Ho says: "The ease with which they settlo all tho groat social and economlo questions that puzzle our brainiest mon Is appalling." But I submit to an un prejudiced publlo that it Is not noarly so appalling as the spcotoolo of old party legislators fruitlessly wrangling over them, with a cost to tho poople of mil lions of dollars. The manner in which our speakers have thus far settled them Is at loast inexpensive. The manifest Incompetency of thimo whom the old parties havo elected to stato and nation al olllce should furnish material for tho brother's criticism. The third reason is a very thin and badly arranged apron of fig leaves with which ho seekB to cover Iho nakedness of his nntl-prohlblllon principles. Mr. Kelley has followed In tho foot- Mops of tho lowly Man of Nazareth to no purpose, if ho has discovered no misery, overty, wrecked lioineB its the fruit of thn snloon, nnd It Illy liooomoa io or any other lover of sobriety mid purity mid tho homo to put weapons In the hands of the saloon with which to bent down them that at least nro mak ing an honest effort to overthrow It. Now I hnvo two or three propositions, then 1 clow.): The snhsin Is nn evil. It Is entrenched In politics. It can only Iki overthrown by political net ion. Will Mr. Kelley or his "just ns good temperance men as you" colloitiriies sug gest a plan by which our long cherished object mnv 1st obtained. That our iilan Is perfect wo havo never claimed, that there Is ground for rillcisiii, wo do not deny. Hut. our ccleslnsl leal critics olTer us nothing In Its stead except the sloroot vped meth ods that havo long since been proven failures and upon which tho saloonatic grows fat.
