TO A LADYE WITH A BOOKS.'
Dearest, the gentle audience
The poet thrilled by mighty themes, .
Sings in full tones the fate Immense
Of nations, passing in his dreams -
Greece, Troy and gorgeous Babylon
Till hia strong xnuaio Is undone;
The strain is of a dying swan
Helen's, the loved and-piteoua one.
Again his fancy sweeps the eve;
Down flaming vistas goes his sight;
fls prays some dryad shy may leave
For him these clouded shores of night.
Full of a new Joy in the spring, - -
He plucks a bloom, o'ershowered with
dew.
His wishes all have taken wing
And bear the floweret, dear, to yon.
' v
So could I sing; here are the lines!
Morn and its hopes, when first I thought
The summer swung its columbines,
Incense for gifts that I had brought;
Odes on the autumn ; holy days.
When all the wood was bright with gold;
An aureole of perfect praise
Over love's brow that I behold.
Pardon! no crown, but at thy feet
I cast the tribute of my lays;
Enough, thine eyes are ever sweet
Hope's radiance o'er my earthly ways.
-John Stuart Thomson in New York Home
Journal.
AN ODD WAGER.
Two men were sitting on a sea front
smoking cigars and Interchanging those
commonplaces and confidences which we
delight to bestow on strangers. They often
appear so muoh. and always mean so little.
The acquaintances were lazily studying
the manners and dress of the visitors and
persons who passed by and perhaps also
quietly and curiously taking stock of each
other. One had been already some weeks
In the town, and one bad only arrived re
cently. They were comparing notes and
Impressions of the place and people and
were enrprlsed to find that they had little
or nothing to quarrel about. Indeed they
discovered they possessed many points of
agreement, with just enough antagonism
to enjoy a talk together. And at this mo
ment they were discussing the agreeable
subject of pretty women.
"Her face is only a blur of red I" cried
Sir Marcus D'Urham as he adjusted his
eyeglass and gazed pensively after a dainty
disappearing figure.
"It's all that confounded veil," replied
his casual friend, Thomas G. Sharpies, of
American extraction, a short oldish man,
who had made a fortune by hard work
and desperate speculation, and in appear
ance resembling the half burned stamp of
a cigar, with a head of hair like the gray
ashes at the top.
"Veils," sighed the baronet, who was
young and handsome and an eligible bach
elor, "are the refuge of the destitute and
ugly, whose characters have survived their
complexions and must be guarded with
almost as much jealousy and care."
"But the sun, you know, plays the mis
chief with a pretty skin of pink and white, .
and parasols are more for ornament than
use."
Presently Miss O'Gilvie returned, and
this time for some reason her thick veil
was lifted off her face, displaying dark
hair and eyes of hazel and radiant rosy
cheeks, and the inimitable air of good
breeding. Her wandering gaze acciden
tally met that of the baronet, with its usual
languid melancholy expression, and she
inadvertently, half unconsciously and
wholly unintentionally smiled and then
lowered her veil again to hide her pretty
confusion.
"I bet yon a thousand, Mr. Sharpies,"
muttered Sir Marcus under his mustache,
"that I woo and win and marry that girl
before Sunday next. That is my future
wife."
"Done!" exclaimed the American eager
ly. "An even thousand you don't that's
so."
It was Sunday evening, and the two ac
quaintances were staying at beautiful
Eastbourne and living at the Grand hotel,
where also was Miss O'Gilvie with her
maid Burdekin. Nor did Sir Marcus find
it hard, considering bow often they were
thrown together, to make Mmarff socially
known and conversationally acceptable to
her. A slight assistance, which a happy
accident enabled him to render her, brought
hi at once into the Inner circle of her
friends. And by a judicious expenditure
of gold he ascertained from the venal
Burdekin something about Miss O'Gilvie's
tastes and habits and much useful infor
mation. She liked riding, she liked boat
ing, she liked golf, she liked billiards and
read a good many novels. And to be fore
warned was to be forearmed. Her pet nov
elist had just published a new book called
"The loves of Lucifer" In diary form and
full of the raciest reading. Naturally the
baronet procured this at the earliest oppor
tunity and was casually and ostentatiously
absorbed in it when Miss O'Gilvie hap
pened to pass.
"Wonderful writer," he Innocently ob
served as she approached him, "and this
is a most successful work."
"I am glad your tastes agree with mine,
Sir Marcus," she replied, falling readily
into the baited trap.
"Ton have anticipated me, then?"
"No; indeed I have not seen it yet"
"Permit me, then, to lend it to you. I
know It all by heart," which was a bold
statement, as he had not read a sing la
page and had no idea of doing so, having
a lively horror of novels generally.
"A thousand thanks. I was just look
ing for a really good book, and now you
have supplied my need." And her whole
face softened as she graciously Inclined
toward him her small, proud head with
its dusky crown of abundant hair.
"May I," asked the baronet, cleverly
seizing the psychological moment, "have
the honor of riding with you tomorrow?"
It was Monday evening now.
"I shall be only too happy, Sir Marcus,"
she answered sweetly. "A groom Is a dull
companion." '
"Let me provide the mount, Miss O'Gil
vie, as I know all about every decent horse
for hire in Eastbourne, and I will get you
the best possible."
"I shall be grateful," she replied. "I
like a live n-nim! and not one that has
just stepped out of a Noah's ark."
"Ah, I know exactly what will suit you
fire and form both, and yet as steady as
a church; no vice whatever and nice, easy
action. Lady Causton rode her a fortnight
ago," which was true enough, but Sir
Marcus did not add that the fair rider
never tried Black Bess a second time.
So it was arranged pleasantly between
them, and at 11 o'clock they started from
the Grand In the direction of Pevensey. It
was a perfect morning in September, and
a cool, fresh breeze was blowing.
"She is a darling," said Miss O'Gilvie
as they trotted merrily along through the
eastern end of the town, "and goes like
little angel."
In fact. Black Bess was suspiciously
quiet and good and appeared quite to have
forgotten her bad character and anteoe-
ter.ta. But In truth she felt there was a
fine horsewoman on her back and was
only seeking for a fitting occasion to try
which of the two should be mistress. And
tho baronet had of course previously as
sured himself that Clare O'Gilvie had a
good seat and was accustomed to ride to
hounds. So he felt certain that, whatever
happened, and even if it came to the worst,
he and she between them could perfectly
well manage Black Bess.
When they had proceeded two-thirds of
tho way on to Pevensey, sometimes trot
ting, sometimes cantering, the wicked
mare took unreasonable offense at a rather
rough section of the road and then pre
tended to be frightened at some cyclists
who came whirling by In a cloud of glory
and dust. And suddenly, without the
least warning, she was up tho Bank on the
left sido like a cat and then over the hedge
before Clare O'Gilvie, who was daydream
ing, had fairly realized her position. How
ever, she retained her seat and her self
possession, with a firm grip of the reins.
It must be admitted that Sir Marcus
was delighted at this second opportunity
f doing good service for his ladylove. His
chestnut thoroughbred followed the fugi
tive and cleared the bank and hedge like a
bird and went In hot pursuit after the two
truants. But the runaways had got a cap
ital start, and Black Bess seemed resolved
to keep It at all costs. The style In which
she cleared her fences without a check
gladdened the heart of the young baronet,
who, seeing that Miss O'Gilvie was In no
real danger, devoutly hoped that the hunt
might be indefinitely prolonged. He was
riding for a wife, and he meant to win
and be in at the finish in the church.
Away they flew, the pursuer and the
pursued, mile after mile, across hedges
and ditches and palings and brooks and
snK "ver one railway line, through one
ofTwo" garoens and harvest fields', yellow
with sheaves of corn, down dim hollow
lanes and up hillsides, through an outly
ing and unused portion of the cemetery,
In spite of two stone walls which had to
be leaped, the mare, game as. ever, still
leading by several lengths. But fate in
the form of a nasty, stiff piece of plowed
land now confronted Black Bess.. She
stumbled, made a desperate effort to re
cover herself, but failed, and fell. . .
Sir Marcus was at the spot immediately.
He found Clare O'Gilvie shaken a good
deal, bruised a little, but frightened not In
the least. And the mare fortunately was
not hurt and seemed too exhausted to bolt.
The lady Insisted pluckily on. mounting
again and riding quietly home, but she
proved to have miscalculated her powers,
and, in making the effort, fainted away.
This gave the baronet his third opportuni
ty, and he proved himself a man of many
resources. And when, some hours later,
they drove home slowly together In a turn-'
bledown country fly, they appeared to be
on the best possible terms and were even
(though somewhat diffidently) calling each
other by their Christian names. Sir Mar
cus wisely refrained from proposing yet
he had another and better and more flaring
card to play, and the sum of 1,000, as
well as a wife, was at stake.
"Clare, dear," he murmured softly, in
her shyly averted shell-like ear, after break
fast next day, "let me row you out this
afternoon, as the sea Is like glass, and it
is too hot fox anything else."
"If you wish, dear," she replied, blush
ing sweetly, "but remember I cannot
swim in case of accident"
"A mishap is Impossible In one of these
tubs and on such smooth water. " And so
it was arranged, and another trick devised,
a little caddishly, at the expense of poor
Miss O'Gilvie.
Lunch was over and Burdekin, the la
dy's maid (proposed faintly, for propriety's
sake, by her mistress), had been rejected,
and the offer of Thomas Q. Sharpies to
accompany them politely declined," and
they were fairly off. Sir Marcus had cun
ningly loosened the plug in the hole by
which any sea splashings were drained off
on the return of the boat, and as it was
close to his hand he felt master of the situ
ation and supremely happy.
"You must not go very far from the
shore, Marcus," sighed Clare, "as an as
trologer told me to beware of water, as I
should meet my fate there. "
"We will keep as near as you choose,
dearest," ho replied, stealthily withdraw
ing the plug.
Clare had shut her eyes conveniently and
drowsily whispered, "I should love to float
like this forever to the musio of the
waves. "
"Not alone, I hope."
"That depends on the company."
"But if something went wrong you
would want a helper. "
''Nothing could go amiss In such calm
weather and with so valiant an oarsman
as you." And she laughed merrily and
then jumped up with a horrified start and
cry as the water rose in the boat.
"Just like these abominable old tubs, "
replied Marcus coolly as he dropped the
sculls and rose and put his arm round poor
Clare, who was now white with alarm,
"but there is no danger, darling. Don't
cling to mel Be brave! I will support you
with one hand and swim ashore with the
other." And so ho did, cheerily.
"Clare, my angel," pleaded Sir Marcus
the same evening, "we seem meant for
each other will you marry mef" Ex
change. Wnat Is a Military Genius T
A military genius is the most precious
possession of a nation and the most diffi
cult to recognize. He cannot be created
by human means. No nation can put a
spirit of discernment into the souls of its
commanders, not even recognize it where
it already exists. But it can train them
in the technicalities of their trade and at
least make kriegsspielers of them. There
may be a genius among them, and such
training is necessary to his full profes
sional equipment. The remainder can be
utilized for what they are worth.
. An army needs but one genius of the
first class. Subordinate geniuses, how
ever, are needed in every grade of the mil
itary hierarchy. Captains who can hold
their men steadily to their work under a
galling and even a deadly fire are geniuses.
The spirits within them are master spirits
whom th.3 men instinctively recognize and
obey. The leader of a forlorn hope should
be such a man. If he is not, no matter
how courageous he may be, bis men will
not follow him. In such emergencies
nothing but commanding spirits can com
mand. Men recognize such leaders in
stinctively. Something akin to hypnotism
compels them to feel as their leaders feels,
and they cannot help but follow him.
There is a heap of difference between such
a leader and a brave man who merely re
peats the language of the drill book. The
one is a genius. The other is a kriegs
spleler. Journal of the Military Service
Institution.

The Hotel Porter's -Neat Joke.
In the barber shop connected with a
big down town hotel works a colored
porter who chatters incessantly- The
hostelry has bad the misfortune to be
the scene of an unusually large number
of violent deaths recently, and the por
ter has plenty material for conversation.
He loves to dwell upon a suicide or a
murder and is looked upon as an au
thority on the death record of the hotel.
The other day he was brushing a cus
tomer's coat and commenced the follow
ing conversation :
"Say, boss, hear 'bout de horrible
murder on floor Y dis moraint"
"Nol" exclaimed the man. "Is it
possible there has been another t"
"Sure 'nough," said the negro, de
voting renewed energy to the brushing
operation.
"Who was killed?" asked the man.
"Oh, a wall paper man done went up
dere and hung up a border."
The customer paid his bill and left.
The colored porter went into the check
room, where he could laugh as hard as
he wanted. Chicago Journal.
