that Margaret und Alice should be mar

wedding, both from the circumstances
connected with it und tho social prom
inence of the principals, created no lit

The interest coinniiiiiioato.l itself to
all classes, and the fortunate few who
were present on the o 'fusion wero se
cretly envied by the less privileged out

to his mvii mind. He felt it in a row
in ilisatisfaeti.nl. The restlessness

of his make-up be.'aii to a-seit itself

In spite of this resolution, lirian did
not display any fresh industry, unless it
was in o,,jMlr i,, the eiiy, where he was
fond of spending his time.
At lirst he returned home every even

"Y'nlkin for the purpose of dropping,

Margaret cleale.l lmr eyebrows
rather I'xpressludy. "What an unself

'walks do you think I . old. I take under
those circiinistaiici s. I'..r the last
month, yo i've been hon nly at liiKht,
and not every ni)!it liy any means. I
have a prejudice in favor of sleeping at
nifiht. 1 tliin.$l shall still continue to
take my walks alone Your mind is
above such simple delights."
With these words, Margaret bent her
head and watched the pink lines between
her Angers, lirian walked to the otner
side of Hie room, ami played a tattoo
on the window.
"It is so dull here," he remarked, alter
a moment of this performance; "and as
you lon t care whether 1 s ay or not. I
don't see the use uf spoiling my pleas

If taking some interest in your home is
likely to do so, you i I only forget you
have a home."
"My home!'' lie n eat. d. with a bit

sarcasm. "When I consider my posi

you sadly wanting. If you think lam
going to humor your b t I temper you
are mistaken. "
lirian was not mollilied al these
woi.ls.
"It is no use in turning it off that
way, Margaret,'' he said. " Your actions
tell me plainly that you n.an i. .1 me be
cause you fell under obligation to do -o.
You blame the .me who marries lor
money, but I think marrying for pride
is just as bad."
"How .tare you!" broke in Margan t.
when anger permitted her to speak. "
wonder you have the efirmitery to say
such things to me, ami I wonder how I
can sit here and let you say iln in. Now,
don't excuse yourself. Y ou ale forever
insulting me and then begging my par

i'.riau acted upon this hint to make
himself more presentable, and during
uiiiiief lie tried to make hi- peace with
Margaret. In thi- ho was successful,
as ii-ual. for her ill-temper was short
lived. At the same 1. , he noticed

Wasiiis. .ton, D. C, .7 ll no 8 (Spe
cial. ) 'I'he end of this session of Con
gress iu the House was inaiked by two
notable incidents. Ono was Bonsa
tioually partisan, well nigh resultinu
iu pursouul conllicts upon tho tloor of
the Mouse; the other was notably
patriotic und swept aviuy all signs of
the former .
Mr. Handy, I leinocrat. by moving to
strike from tho record a part of the
speech which appeared us that of Mr.
liav, Kepubiicun, ol Now York, pre
cipitated a dispute w hich brought on a
closing incident uf a seiisatioual uat lire,
during which u .pieslioii of veracity
arose between Messrs. Kay anil llau.iy,
iiud liuaily Mr. Camion. Ilepnblican, of
llhuois, liy denouncing Iho liotnoeruts
for delaying iui -iness by calling for
tellers ou tne mutiou to strike out,
came near precipitating a riot.
At ' o'clock, when Speaker UeeJ an
nouueed ' this second session of tho
CougresE adjourned without day," a
great cheer arose and theu began a
i-cone which, while similar to the usual
closing scenes of sessions, fur surpassed
iu err! husiasui and manliest uoud fuel
ing any simili " episode in tho memory
of tho oldest member of the House.
The occui tints of the packed galiei ioa
w ho had risen to go, paused us they
heard a half doeu members begin
siugiug "America." Other members
hurriedly crowded around the Speaker's
stand and joined the singars until with
in a short time it seemed all members
present were aiding iu swelling tho
volume of song. 1'reseutly a voice here
and there in the galleriei joined iu,
and it was not long ui.til moiubuis and
si ectators were singing tho patriotic
hymn.
"Tho scene was a marked transition
from the party deinonsti ut ion which
had beeu w itnessed siu h u short time
before. Ileinocrats ami i'.epnbiicims
were now singing in accord a national
anthem. Whuu tiie si ng ceased, some
member proposed three cheers lor the
"nation's lie-i'leiit. ' and the roar of
sound that followed came in. in a united
house, liieii "'sioth. Smith, l a-t and
West, a liiitel Country"" was pro

is now clinging, though iii. to his com
mand iu front of Santiago, was naiiiod,
and tho hull resoiiiidcil with cheers of
thrilling streiigt.i. Then the sinning
proceeded. Mount nun Sergi a'.it at
Arms llr.ssell huii brought in vi in small
American i'.ags and every u, embers was
now waving one. "i lie s i sir Sf angled

ed "Yankee Poodle' and "! ixie," the
hitter perhaps for the lirst lime iu tho
llou-i', joined iu by members from
every suction of tho country, (liters
for tho Speaker were mveii. Tho patri
otic tlcn.otistral ion continued a half
hour, and then the members began
leaving', suying farewell lo colleagues.
