A store of unpracticed piety In the
keart, warns the Chicago Tribune,
Boon paralyzes it.
The man who never tries to do
things seldom lecls the hammer ot the
"knocker," observes the Commoner.
No matter how Intellectual she may
be, sneers the Philadelphia Record, af

One of the first ways In which an
opportunity to earn money was open
to women came In the days before the
tewing machine, relates the Christian
Register, when hundreds of thousands
ot linen bosoms were sent throughout
the country to be stitched by hand for
the shlrtmakers of New York City.
In a speech In the senate on Ha
waiian affairs, Senator Depew of Now
York told this story: When Queen
Liliuokalani was In England during
the queen's Jubilee, she was received
at Buckingham palace. In the course
of the remarks thnt passed between
the two queens, the one from the
Sandwich islands said that she had
EngliBh blood in her veins. "How so?"
Inquired Victoria. "My ancestors ate
Cook."
Notes the New York Evening Globe:

An ambitious barber, having Im

Coffee was to Balzac an "indispen
sable prerequisite to literary creation."
Three or four years before Tie came
to Passy he thus described the effects
of the stimulating brown berry: Ev
erything is thrown Into a state of ag
itation; Ideas move like the battalions
of a great army on the battlefield, and
a battle occurs. Memories arrive on
the double quick with banners flying;
the light cavalry of comparisons
breaks Into a magnificnt gallop; the
artillery of logic arrives with Its am
munition train; witticisms rush for
ward as skirmishers; figures of speech
Stand ready to charge; the paper Is
quickly covered with ink, for the
night vigil begins and ends with tor
rents ot black water, as the battle
with black powder. Yet it is only fair
to state than 10 years later Balzac
solemnly confessed that he was "slow
ly succumbing to the weight of some
14,000 enps of black coffee."
A. "school of matrimony," having
for its object the inculcation of "the
prime essentials of wedded happi
ness" has been instituted in Boston,
reports the New York World. To teach
a Boston girl how to be a happy wife
seems HkeT attempting ' to paint the
lily, and there is reason to suspect
that the academy in question is a form
of the educational philanthropy for
which the Hub is noted. A school for
'wives is no doubt a perfectly logical
extension ot the widened scope ot
modern education. In what school the
Roman Cornelias, the resolute matrons
wfto embarked on the Mayflower and
the millions ot happy American wives
ot today learned the art it might be
invidious lo ask. But it is assumed
that the school is established in re
sponse to a demand, and that being
the case it is eminently proper that it
should be opened at the country's
leading educational centre. It is true
that the proportion of wives, happy or
Unhappy, is smaller in Massachusetts
than in any other American state and
the proportion of. unmarried women
larger. But this may be due merely to
an insistence on higher matrimonial
ideals. If theory and practice do not
' ' agree In Boston, that is not necessar-
' ily the fault ot the theory.

White Lilacs.
By GENEVIEVE M. BOICE.
lSSHHSHJrHSH5a5H5E5H5H5H5
The Inst stroke of midnight sol
emnly boomed over the Bleeping city
as Edward Brewster laid aside his
pen with infinite weariness. AH the
world was at rest but him, he
thought, bitterly; and yet, he, too,
might have been at peace in his old
home to-night In Llmlcnlea had the
wanderlust never seized him.
He stirred uneasily; around his
desk seemed to cling tho faint haunt
ing fragrance of the lilac bush, al
though no spray of the blossom could
he find in the room. It was a forbid
den flower in the Brewster mansion.
Twenty years It was since he had
touched a Bpray of white lilac, and
that was the night he had bidden Ev
elyn Leicester and Llndenlea a long,
last farewell.
It was sprins time now In Llnden
lea, he mused dreamily, and the lilac
bush by the fountain had donned ber
bridal robe of misty, shimmering
white, and the dew was lying on the
gently waving branches like fairy
Jewels.
Evelyii had come lo him that night
down the shadow haunted path that
led to the fountain, her regret at his
going plainly visible in the sweet,
dark eyes. Of all his friends, she
alone, believed in him; the others;
called him a dreamer. The wide, '
wide world was not for such as him,
they said, he who had never known
labor. But Evelyn Leicester was not
one of these. "I will believe in you
always, Ned, come what may," she
had. told him, her beautiful head
tilted back, and a light in her eyes
that rivalled the starshlue in the
heavens above.
"Because I love you, Evelyn," he
had answered, "and desire your hap
piness above everything else In the
world,' always during yonr life re
member that somewhere I am near,
waiting to do something to prove my
love for you, and that a spray of this
flower, however small, sent to me at
any time or any place, will grant
whatever wish you may make, that
it m.-y bo In my power to grant, even
at the cost ot unhapplness to myself.
Years and oceans may divide us, but
the white lilac will always be to us
the emblem of our unity."
Bird-wing and bird-song were si
lent as they parted; the wind Blghed
softly through the weeping willows,
and the great, white moon shone full
upon the lilac bush.
He would return, he told her, when
he had become rich and famous; they
would be married In the little stone
church on the hill half burled in ivy,
and together they .would roam
through the broad, beautiful world
like children on a holiday.
He had fought his way in the city
step by step until he had secured a
foothold; the way was hard and
paved with many difficulties, and left
him. little time for the sweeter things
ot life. His letters to Evelyn were
short, and as he now remembered,
must have been unsatisfactory, and
yet she was ever in his thoughts,
queen of his castles in Spain, the
bright particular star of his lonely
life.
The blow that had shattered his
every dream came with terrific sud
denness. In a paper from his home
town he read-the notice of her mar
riage to John Brinslee, the rich man
of the village. He had uttered no
Bound as he read it, the wound was
too deep. For Evelyn he had no
blame, but in his heart he registered
a vow of vengeance against the man
who had taken her from him. Fate
had early taken a hand in the game,
for Edward Brewster had risen to the
office ot president ot an immense
corporation in which John Brinslee
held a high and trusted position.
' The two men never made any pre
tense ot friendship; ; each one was
wary of the other.
Wearily the great financier rose
from his desk, at the same time open
ing an important looking envelope
that had escaped his attention.
As be read its contents the shadows
dropped from his face as by magic,
and a light of almost Insane triumph
dawned In his eyes. The moment for
which he had 'longed, prayed and
hoped for twenty years had come at
last.
During his absence abroad John
BrinBlee's enemies had been buBy
weaving a web around him from
which he had found it impossible to
extricate himself, and tbey had com
pelled him to resign his position. His
friends, claiming him innocent of the
charges brought against him. had for-
warded his reinstatement to the
president with the request that he
sign it and place John Brinslee back
In his old position.
Would he sign it? Yes, when John
Brinslee could give htm ba the
vanished years of his life with the
fulfilment of his youthful dreams;
when he could repay him even in
part for the loneliness and misery of
twenty years. Then and not till then
would he sign It.
He threw the pnper on his desk,
and a little white box hitherto un
noticed brushed his hand. Mechanl
raly he opened It and shook from its
satin bed a spray of white lilac. He
fell heavily Into a chair and his head
sank forward on his outstretched
hands. He remembered his promise
and she had remembered it, too, but
surely no huinnn beating heart that
had suffered as he had for twenty
years could be expected to relinquish
this cherished dream of revenge for
a burled romance. And still the lit
tle spray ot fragrance pleaded silent
ly for Its own and finally won. With
trembling hands and eyes that Baw
not, Edward Brewster signed his
name to John Brinslee's reinstate
ment.
The shadows of twilight quietly
fell in John Brinslee's office; the
room was deserted save for the bowed
figure sitting silently at his desk. It
was not the attitude of a triumphant
man, rather of one who had failed.
And yet. In his hand he held his rein
statement, besides the knowledge
that he had bested Edward Brewster
In a battle of wits.
When Brinslee had felt the web ot
his enemies drawing' closer around
him a wild plan had flashed into his
whirling brain. He knew the ro
mance of the white lilac, and one day
a message had gone from his office to
his old home In Llndenlea: "Send me
a spray of lilac from the white bush
by the fountain."
Tli flower had arrived and been
sent on its silent "mission to Edward
Brewster, and the reinstatement
signed by the great financier had
come back almost immediately, and
yet John Brlnsleefelthimself crushed
and humiliated by the deception he
had practiced.
As If acting on a Bttdden Impulse
he arose from his desk and tearing
the paper before him Into pieces
threw it on the glowing flames. Then
he squared his shoulders as one who
accepts a heavy burden, and passed
out Into the night and its shadows.

HISTORIC TEXAS rOST.
Where tho Experiment Was Made
With Camels For Crossing Desert.
The destruction by Ore of Camp
Verde on the morning of March 26 re
moved from Southwestern Texas a
landmark of more than passing Inter
est to many people, not only In this
section, but in various parts of the
United States.
The old house, located on Verde
Creek, eight miles from Centre Point
and thirteen from Kerrville, was the
last remaining building of Camp
Verde military post. It was built In
1857 and was originally the officers'
quarters ot the garrison. Construct
ed of concrete, with walls two feet
thick, and all the finishing lumber
freighted by ox wagon from Indlan
ola, the nearest shipping port at that
time, the building cost the Govern
ment $14,000. '
Camp Verde post was established
as a station from which experiments
could be made in using camels to
cross the desert to California. ' In
1857 a consignment of forty camels
was brought from Asia Minor and
Egypt on the United States Bteamer
Supply to the Texas coast and event
ually to Camp Verde. Twelve Amer
ican camel drivers accompanied them
and a caravan master. To the latter
the Government had guaranteed a
salary of $100 a month for the re
mainder ot his life, and he was still
drawing It up to a few years ago and
may be even now.
A large caravansary was built for
the accommodation ot the camels and
a well dug and fitted up with a sweet
for drawing water after the ancient
Egyptian fashion. Traces of both the
corral and well are still In evidence.
The experiment, however, proved im
practical, and while the camels were
kept there eleven years, no use was
made of them, and In 1868 they were
sold and sent to Mexico and Califor
nia. Many United States prisoners of
war wre kept at Camp Verde by the
Confederates until their exchange
could be effected i During Its occu
pation by Federal troops many dlstin
gulshed visitors had been entertained
there, General Robert E. Lee and Jos.
E. Johnston as a Lieutenant-Colonel,
being among these. Following the
war the post was again occupied by
United States troops until 1870, when
It was formally evacuated. Later a
company of State Rangers were sta
tioned there, but eventually , it. was
abandoned (together and became a
stopping place for any wayfarer who
cared to seek shelter in passing by.
The hospital, barracks, stables and
other buildings, by pillages and fire,
were gradually destroyed and obliter
ated. In 1875 Camp Verde became the
property of Judge John A. Bonnell, ot
Ohio, tn the possess lo a ef whose fam
ily it has since remained..
The walls withstood the fierce on
slaught.of flame and rise above the
ruins, but old Camp Verde Is no more.

Baseball Graduates
Attain High Places
Pitcher John Tener Named For Governor of Pennsylvania
Many Other Ex-Players Have Risen to Prominence
in Professional and Business Life.
John K. Tener, of Charlerol, Pa.,
who was graduated 'from the pitch
er's box to a banker's desk and after
ward was elected to Congress to rep
resent his home district, was nomin
ated for Governor of Pennsylvania
by the Republican State Convention.
The State of Pennsylvania has, how
ever, other men who attained promi
nence through baseball. Harold M.
McClure, who caught John Montgom
ery Ward back in the seventies, was
elevated to the bench and is now the
presiding judge of a district court.
Addison Gumbert, who was a mem
ber of the Chicago team at the same
time with John Tener, was elected
Sheriff of Alleghany County, and is
slated for a higher position. Tener
was a pitcher on the Chicago Club In
1883-89. In 1890 he joined the
Brotherhood and played with the
Pittsburg Club, retiring that year to
follow the banking business.
Many ex-hasehall players and men
who were Identified with the game
have been, and are now, prominent In
professional and business life. The
late Senator Pue Gorman was a mem
ber of the Olympics, of Washington,
in 1867. Senator Morgan G. Bulk
ley, of Connecticut, was the first
president of the National League In
1876. Justice Moody, of the Supreme
Court, wns formerly president of the
New England League. '
Albert G. Spalding and Al Reach,
both professional baseball players of
note In the seventies, have become
Immensely wealthy as dealers in
sporting goods. Spalding pitched for
the Boston Club In 1872, 1873, 1874
and 1S75. In 1875 he pitched sixty
three games with a winning average
of .899 per cent. This record never
has been beaten. Reach played sec
ond base for the Eck fords, of Brook
lyn, and afterward for the Athletics,
of Philadelphia.
Now A. G. Spalding Is a prominent
candidate for the United States Sen
ate from California, where he has re
sided of late years. The candidate
against him is Governor Glllett, whose
popularity In California was not In
creased through his action in forbid
ding the John3on-Jeffries fight in San
Francisco.
Ward-a Tromlnent Lawyer.
Many baseball players, who were
favored with large salaries during re
cent years, spent the better part of
their money In fitting themselves for
professional careers after their use
fulness as players had ended. Of
these John Montgomery. Ward Is "an
example. Ward was for many years
one ot the Btars of the New York
Giants. He retired from baseball In
1895 with years of profitable service
ahead of him. He took up the prac
tice of law and has been very success
ful. Of late years Ward has been
prominent as a golfer.
. Tho late Michael J. Sullivan, at
one time a pitcher for the Giants and
other National League teams, retired
to become a member ot the Boston
bar. He was elected to the Massa
chusetts Legislature, and later to a
judgeship shortly before his death.
Judge Harry M. Taylor played first
base for the Louisville and Baltimore
clubs while studying law at Cornell
University. ' When he was graduated
from college he also was graduated
from baseball and took up the prac
tice of law In Buffalo. Two years ago
he was appointed District Judge on
the WeBtern Circuit of this State. He
is also a trustee of Cornell University.
Orator James O'Rourke, while he
has only recently retired from active
baseball, has been a practicing attor
ney In Bridgeport for many years.
Captain Adrian C. Anson, of the
Chicago Club, was elected City Clerk
of the Windy City through his con
nection with baseball. Dick Cogan,
who pitched for Chicago and other
clubs, was an Alderman in Paterson
and afterward was elected City Clerk
of the Jersey town.
Fultz, Too, a Lawyer.
David Fultz, who played good ball
for the Baltimore, Philadelphia Ath
letics and New York Americans, is
doing well at the practice of law In
this city. Fultz also shines as a
leader of prayer meetings and Is a
very popular speaker. ' He never falls

Hilly Sunday an Kvangelist.
Rev. William A. Sunday, known
for many years as Billy Sunday, one
of the stars of the Chicago team, has
made a remarkable record as an
evangelist. That revival work pays
much better than baseball Is demon
strated by the fact that the Rev. Mr.
Sunday recently received In the way
of contributions $3622.84 for One

Edward M. Lewis, for years well
known as a pitcher of the Boston Na
tional League team, Is a graduate of
a divinity School in Massachusetts
and Is a regularly ordained clergy
man. He gave up the diamond to ac

Notre Dame University, and for eight
years a pitcher for the Kansas City,
Washington and Boston clubs, Is an
Instructor In general and analytical
chemistry In Wabash College.
Danny Richardson, of the Giants,
the late Mike Griffin, of the Brooklyn
Club, are two ball players who re
tired in their prime to become suc
cessful business men. Richardson is
In the dry goods business In Elmlra
and Griffin was the proprietor ot a
brewery In Utica when he died.
Some of the players who used their
baseball salaries to pursue the stildy
of medicine or dentistry are the late
Doe Bushong, of the St. Louis and
Brooklyn teams; Jimmy Casey, of
Chicago and Brooklyn; G. Harris
White, of the Chicago White Sox;
Harry Gessler, of Washington; Mark
Baldwin, of Chicago and New York;
Eustace Newton, of Toronto; the late
Maurice Powers, of the Philadelphia
Athletics, and Billy Scanlon, of the
Brooklyn Club.
Children of professional ball play
ers have also become prominent
helped by the money their fathers
made in the game. Sid Farrar, first
baseman of the Philadelphia Club in
the eighties, spent all of his salary
he possibly could spare on the early
musical educatlonof his gifted daugh

The King's Right Hand Man.
Lord Knollys, who, after serving
the late King for forty years, has been
appointed private secretary to King
George, comes of a singularly long
lived race. His father served as con
troller of the Prince of Wales' house
hold until his eightieth year, and
lived for six years after his retire
ment, and his grandfather likewise
attained a great age. His ancestor,
William Knollys, who also served in
the household of two monarchs, Eliz
abeth and James I., died at the age of
eighty-five, and, according to Dug
lale, "rode a hawking and hunting
within half a year ot his death." Sir
Francis KnollyB, who founded the
family fortune, was eighty-two at the
time ot his death. London Chroni

the same height, weight and color.
They are a higher class horse than
the ones used in' the ci airy service,
and yet such horses may be found in
all the horse breeding States. Intel
ligence and good looks are more es
sential for the mounted police horse
than speed or high education as sad
dle horses.
When it is considered that the fa
mous mounted police squadron of
New York has been in existence less
than ten years and that its efficiency
is recognized as being one of the
greatest ot modern municipal devel
opments it is not difficult to see that
in the near fnture the demand for
the proper type of horse for this ser
vice will be such as to claim the at
tention of the breeders of every State
In the Union.
