LATE ROSES.
BY MARY KYLE DALLAS.
The flowers urew fair and fine
I under the tare ot the old florist,
j Donald 'McDonald. His hot-houre
wan a marvel, as, by the way, weie
" - o
ters hung between the two gate
posts of his garden.
No one knew much about him.
He had come to the town and takcu
the place from an old m iu who Lad
left it, to go back to hi native Scot
land a fellow-countryman, nuJ, uo
doubt, an old tiiend ; but he never
spoke ot this, or, indeed, of auytbing
doe. It was said of hiui that he
never spoke to anyone. This was
not quite troe. There were occa
sions on which a ''Yes1' or a "No,,;
i gruot or an "Ah !" became neces
sary ; more no ooe could get out cf
ii'm.
He lived alone iu his house,whicb
a woman came to tidy ODce a week
and it , was a pretty house, thoe
-aid, who had peeped into it, and
well lurnisbed ; and in its little par
!or stood a low sewiug.chair near a
work-basket on a small stand, as if
soine woman were expected to use
it; aud over the mautel hung a good
,.-ir t ri t nf n. &A ii M tii I vnii woman .
, jd lued Delief
legend g
ntnongst those who knew the florist,
hat he had lont a joung wife and
that her death had preyed upon
, d cbanged greatly. And
& '
ror mis reasou me worm at mrge
eiue mach more symsathetic and
- s
jiuuij mu c uuuauj vn;u
;t for beiog folk pardoned Dooald
.tfcDouald for bis oddities aud
;oraiaed him for his skill iu his call
ing. Certainly be was not without
rends somewhere, for he was al
ways writing letters and receiving
inteis from abroad, with important
Ijokiug seals upon them. Only why
Eboaldhebe so savage with the
t bildren if one of them bat thrust a
campled hand through the palings
lira blade of grass or a daisy, or
caaght at a fruit blossom that the
I jng branch pus within reach1? That,
t (Others said, was his worst trait-
But it had come to be that the
children passed the florist's garden
ca the other side ot the way, and
never dreamed ot peeping iu at the
door of the hot house. But Donald
v as not parsimonious, for every
Sunday he carried, with his own
hands, a great basket of flowers to
ttie church door and hauded it with
out a word to the sexton, who placed
them where all couid see and ad mire.
Aud also, it auy poor womau
in his neighborhood were ill, one
too poor to dream of buying flow
ers, rare roses were handed iu at
ber door, aud they ail knew they
came from Donald McDonald.
Therefore, even despite his surliness
to the little children, and bis silent
ways, they all believed the florist to
be a good man at heart.
What would they have thought
of him coald they have seen him
sometimes in his owu home, when
the shutters were closed aud the
curtains drawn, his uitu gooe home
for the night, and no eve upou him
save that, perhaps, of some of those
good augeis who watch and weep
uusteu with poor hamauity ? What
Would thy have thought, bad they
seen him kneel before that fragile
liille uewiug chair, bis bead upou
its cushion, kissing them, weepiug,
sobbing, crying upou a woman's
name at iutervais, or gathering from
the basket a little frock that a doll
might have worn, aud prcsiug it to
his heart and folding it ieveiently
as a Catholic might the telle cf a
saint, ere he replaced r, or islanding
before the lovely portrait of a wom
an that hong upon bis war, reach
ing hla arms--to aid it aad ciyiog :
"Come back to Uie, Jcuuie, in. Suve,
come back and forgive me !" Tbeu
they would have known, indeed,
that the story of his life was a trag
ic one.
Ten years before, he had had a
lovely wife that was her portrait
upon liift wall, fth hitd t-Mi nar
ly cuug enough to ltbis dauhtr,'
ut she loved him fondly, and tin y I
WrT very h tppy for a while. It
was in Scotland that, he married
her, and theie they lived amongst
his flowers, happy as thH day wa
long, until, one HUiiny afiemoon, a
handsome joung Highland laird
rode that way to liny roses. He had
an eye for a preity lace, and Jenuie
was tint a girl ; she blushed to be
admireii. Afc rwaid Donald coald
not leiuemWer which ot the ''ir.fles
iight as air." which are the food of
jealousy, awakeued his. A madness
seized him. He believed her talse ;
be called her a foul name ; he act
cused her coarsely. That night,
when he returned to his home, he
found her gone; a letter lay upon
the table ; it itad tuus :
"I am iuuoceut in word and deed;
1 have loved you only, nor has auy
man had cause to believe otherwise
but you have insulted me so that I
can never look you iu the face
agaiu. Good"bye for ever.
Jennie.7'
There were not wantiug those
who believed that the elderly flo
rist's wife bad gone away with the
tiandsome ycung Highlander; but
Donald himself knew better. Since
that day, despite the fact that the
lat she had worn bad been found
floating iu a loch near by, he had
aever ceased to search for her. He
:iad written to the American consuls
)t foreign countries the large cor.
:espondence which sarpriad his
neighbors was all concerning his
est wife. A report that she had
oeen seen iu America had brought
jim here. Here, where the old sto
y was not kuown, he made a home
. or her, believing then that she
night come to dwell in it. There
iood her chair, her unfinished nee
lie-work, there hung her portrait;
jut so many years had passed with
uit any tidings of her- so many
jears despair had seized Donald's
uool and made him bitter to all man
kind. This year he was more mis
erable than ever. He saw the marks
of age growing greater iu his face ;
he thought that somewhere on earth
his son or daughter might be beg"
;iug bread, for Jennie was not one
of your clever women, but as cling
ing as any tender vine in all his
garden. Ho was well-to-do ; he had
boarded for ber sake. How be bad
prayed for forgiveness, yet Cod
would not hear him. He thought
himself accursed, and told himself
tbit he was lost, soul and body, uni
less he might atone for his great
siu. Iu this mood, he made no an
swer to the "Good days" of his men
when they were about to trudge
homeward, and was more ready
than ever to believe that, in spite
of all his care, the neighbor's chil
dreu robbed his flower borders.
In the darkness he walked along
down the long, broad paths of his
iose-garden. The late roses only
lingered, but they were beauties
Their fragrance came to him ten
derl.y. He sat down upon a block
of stone, and the soft grass at his
feet and the sweet stars above help
ed to soothe him.
"If she is dead she will know my
remorse' he sighed, his monominia
taking a more gentle turn, for be
never could forget for a moment.
''Now if she could but come to me, a
spirit, could stand amongst the roses
and smile on me, then I would wait
for death in peace-
Donald McDonald had in his veins
the blood of ancestors who were en
dowed with second-sight. Nothing
seemed impossible to him. He
stared t efore him, waiting for a
sigu, and saw a slender band hold
ing a rose a hand like hers over
the top of a certain old bush. It
arose between him and the stare
light. His blood curdled, his heart
beat so that it shook his frame. An
other rose was in the slender hand,
dow another. He heard a high
"Was she about to speek to him?''
be Hked himself. But then came a
cough of the earth earthly and,
spring ng to his feet, Donald sav
that what h bad taken for the
haud of a spirit, materialized iu an
swei to prayer, was that of a boy
who was s'ea'iug his roses, his left
- - propped upon the fence, his
lr.rt Laud receiving the flowers which
he br ke from the stems with the
lnr j
Tho revnlinn of foiling wai too
reat. For an instant ho grew fe
melons and st-izod the little brewn
vi ist in a grip thai must have given
ain.
"You young thief !'. he roared.
The boy stiuggl d but held the
doweiafast-
"I II see whoyou are; I knew some
mo was robbing me," said Douald,
iraggicg him toward the house.
Once where the lamplight lell on
the face oi the boy, he haw that the
iad was a stranger. He stw, roo,
that lo was clad m rags and looked
tar tiom well nourished, but he was
beautiful, with theuaik, soft beauty
the saudy-baired Scotchman loved
best, and Donald's fury faded before
the look in the brown eyes.
"Tild e, y u may go,'' he raid.
The i oy telt his wrist releastd,and
i Kik a tirmer grasp upou bis roses.
"Thank you," he said "May 1 keep
tie flowers ?"
"lt stole u goods give jou jov,"
-lid Donald.
'T waut them for a tick woman,''
. aid the boy. "They will give her
pleasure. She will not know how I
i;ot them.r
"A sick perton ?" said Donald.
'Why did jou not say they were for
i sick woman i Hie !"
He went out into the garden
i gain, and clipped and bound until
t great, glowing, fragrant bunch
was iu his hand.
''There," said he, "come back to
norrow night. Sick well that is
ilfferent."
''Mother will be so glad,' said the
I oy. "God bless you."
That uight Dona'd slept happily,
f 3r the first time in years.
"It's the blessing," he said, to
1 imself- The next night he waited
1 mg for the boy. At last he saw
1 im running toward him.
"I had an errand to do for a gen
t !'man," he exclaimed. "And we
1 ( e far across the bridge. The
t -wers kept motber company all
d-y. You don't ku:'W what you did
bf her."
This time some dainty truit went
sith the flowers, and Donald laid
h s hand on the boy's head, ere they
pirced, with a "Come to-morrow."
He did.
"I'll walk with you a bit." Donald
a .id, this time, as the boy turned
a "ay ; and, keeping by his side,
they crossed the bridge and came
lv the poor part of the town, where
a: serable little shops and houses
crowded together. No gardeos
tl. ere ; no path of sward; nothing
bt tthe sorded surroundiugs oi those
who labor for mere bread, and have
no time for pretty fancies.
"Is this where you live T" asked
Donald.
"Yes, though my mother is fit for
a oalace," said the boy.
He had paused at a low door. A
wpmau stood beside it, her arms
fo ded in her apron.
"I'm glad you've come.'' she said.
"My children want me. Your moths
er is worse. She is talking wild."
She left them, hurrying up the
street and vanished iu a dingy al
leysway. The boy, with a cry of grief,rush
ed into the little bouse. Donald
followed. A candle flared upon
the chimney-piece. On a miserable
bed lay a woman, mnttering to her
self. "Mother, 1 have come," said the
bo,y- "Here are more flowers."
The thin hands, so like bis own,
clutched them,
"Flowers I More flowers." she
said. "Late roses ! Where is Don
ald ? Donald's garden used to be
full of them. It was Eden the
garden of Eden ! But he turned me
out, and I I was true true to
him"
"Jennie ! Oh my God ! It is my I

and sprand forward, and, kneeling
by tbe bed-side, lifted the wasted
form in his arms.

Election.
New York, Nov, 4. Exl'resi
t' ;nt Grover Clevelaud was seen at
l residence iu Madison avenue to
(. iy and gave his opinion of tho res
ult of Tuesday's election asfollowt-:
Of course every one has a right
t: pat his own construction open
tto result, and I am not anxious to
obtrude my ideas, but it seems tc
in 9 some things ought to be no
longer doubtful; Auy man who
t till thinks that tariff reform is a
n tied and obsolete issue, or that
tl ii importauce of sound and safi'
di :aey is a question npon which the
p ple can be blind d, is either
v fully wrong or dangerously dull.
It reems to me, too, that the Demo-
o: :tS ought bo satisfied that a
; janch adherence to tbe principles
f heir party does not require the
tl. ise of those who show any in
j i lation to help us. I very much
:v ret the defeat of Gov. Campbell.
3? has been a brave and honest of
3 .'ial, This and tho splendid cau
v i! she has mad j entitled him to
w.ccess. Wbile tbe election o!
F :wer, .Russell and Boies ought to
tx :sethe utmost rejoicing among
M.: Democrats, they should not tor
got that with these things comes
tl obligation to be tiue to the peo
p'o, honest in the advocacy of our
p -mciples, and decent iu all tbinyiH.''
The Result in ew York.
The Democrat have carried the
S ate of New York, electiug Mr.
R:swell P. Flower, their caudidate,
fci the governorship. This result
iscf great importance from tbe
po jt of view ot uaiioual politics. It
means that the democracy will
wot k with untiring zeal and the best
prospects of success to carry tbe
Si le iu 1892. It mean-, raoreoer,
tht nomination of Mr. Cleveland in
tit.: year. The victory was won
dis ioctly upon the national issues
wit i which Mr. Cleveland has Men
tili.d himself. T.rill reform and
sou id money were, at the instance
of Mr. Cleveland's Iriends, made
prominent planks ot th:? Saratofjo
pi torm, ami t-uccess on nucd a basis
in the pivotal E u pire State must
give an immense impetus lo sound
discriue on these sabj-c;a. Tbe en
thusiasm with wbicu the ex-President
was received at every pulitica'
meeting at which he appeared dur
ing the campaigu tea tilled to his
hold upou tbe popular heart, The
logic of the situation should now
make MoKinley, of Obio, the Ren
publicau candidate for tlm Presi
dency. Mr. Cleveland, the advo
cate of low taxes, and Mr, McKiuley,
the admirer of high taxes, wouio
tbuscontiont each other iu the
Presidential eampiin ot urxt year.
It would be a fair and t-rjuare light,
on issues perfectly defined and web
understood by every oudy. Until
Cleveland entered the areua the
politicians, Democratic aswtll a?
Kepublican, foogb: shy of the tanfl
issue. They have tried all sorts of
dodges. Tbey have endeavored to
sabsutute this and that issue for the
pebhe question to which the masses
of tl e people are chiefly interested.
