OTi'iVi r..r,.nt)a Gloomy Oatlok, Rotktjto foreisn and DomHlle (From the New York Herald.) r' nrpsent situation both at homp and abroad, if not absolutely criti cal, is at least very delicate. Some in terest ins comment upon this matter will be found in a letter from our Berlin . correspondent. At homo, the agrarian and conserva tive majority defied the Kaiser by block bz for' the second time the canal bill which, with a project for the creation of a powerful navy, his majesty j has made up .his mind to carry through in 'gpite of all opposition. r To judge from present indications, the price "f ultimate victory may be a big ger one than the Emperor will care o pir. It would seem that nothing short of a definitive break with the Agrari ans will secure 'the passage of the bill. It i this fact that again leads him to shelve the project for the time being rather than to emasculate it by con cessions that would rob it of all value. The Agrarians are. after all, the back-; bone of the monarchical principle, .not only in Prussia, but in Germany. A dec laration of war to the knife with them would be to steer the governmental ship along a hitherto unexplored channel. The Emperor will probably hesitate long before adopting any such revolutionary measure. . . Abroad the situation is not less dis quietine. The Chinese debacle, so far ss Germany 's high handed policy is concerned, has proved once more the foliy. of trying to force colonization at the bayonet's point. A colonial policy ;,s ' above all things a commercial policy. The only iise for armed troops in sch. connection is to protect commorce when established. German public opinion ap pears to have grasped this fact and is consid'erins: how best to cut short mat ters in China. Xor do Germany's difficulties end here. Italy shows a disposition to exact a tommerr-ial equivalent for a renewal ot the Triple Alliance. Russia has declared her determination to begin a war of tar . Iffs should the Agrarians' protectionist policy he adopted by the German gov ernmentas Count von Buelow hinted it would, though this was before the ca nal hill received its second setback and in the United States there exists a growing suspicion of Germany's objects which no amount of fair words can al lay. "'Deeds speak louder than words." marks our Berlin eorrespondejit.' The reported intention of Germany to secure 'a coaling station on Margarita Island regarded as a violation of the Mon roe doctrine which if persisted in would inevitably bring the two countries into collision. The United States Is as much com pelled to uphold the Monroe doctrine as Great Britain was compelled to main tain her claim to supremacy in South Africa, even at the risk of war, which, m spite of all assertions to the contrary, was distasteful to a vast majority of ;..Jne English people. The United States Is also prepared to vspare no efforts to preserve peace, but -will count no cost o ereat to secure the intangibility of a ooctr'na which safeguards it against Eu ropean interference. .".mutke to Force Noir Book on tbo People Fn-.ni the Stanley Enterprise.) At this writing, we cannot tell what wih !.s tha action of tha state Board Eaucetion in regard to the adoption text books for. our public -schools. Peaking for Stanley county, we are "con sent that a reduction in the price of "ooks would be welcomed, but, with ft PosSib!e exception or two. it would be a Mistake to force our people to throw I1 the books now' used and cause T,1Rm to buy others.

"Not a pleasant person to live with," said the frivolous girl; shuddering. "Oh, here's' a perfect illustration of the hen-walk," exclaimed the character reader, with professional enthusiasm. "Her ' little, short jerky steps and her important fussy manner haven't; you seen tiieni a hundred times in me chick en yard. I'm willing to stake my repu tation that she never had a lug . thought in her life. Existence is a round of pretty things, 'an J'she is never content ed. ! , "Lister," she whiipered. as the wom an under discussion paused -in front of them to speak to a friend. "Not well at all." was her answer to oing the e spring sewing on my hands! ' Then the woman moved away. "Now, what do you say?" asked the character reader, triumphantly. "It's really amazing: How did you leani to do it?" ".lust practice," returned the other. "Ah. here wo have the deprecating walk." She Indicated a toll girl with a pen sive fact under a brown velvet hat. "Notice the little hitch in her walk. She doesn't step evenly, not as far with her right foot a she does witn her left. You will always find her halting be- i tween two opinions. She is the type that gives milliners, brain fever. She spends an hour trying on every hat in stock, and finally by a process of elim ination narrows the desirable ones down to two. I'm sure you've marked her when you wanted to look at hats your- another, the additional expense is small on each succeeding year, and it is lu ue uuiJi-u mat our iifupie win utj sav ed the cost of a material change. $ Gebden JHcKInler (From the Louisville Courier-Journal." He is the observed of all observers, lie is a wonderful advance agent of his party. He is the incarnation of all that is glittering and specious, the very em bodiment of clever opportunism. A lie publican of Republicans; the easy boss-primogenius-among Protectionists: he is talking glibly about enlarging commerce and expanding trade, and "open doors." like a very Free Trader. iot a word about home markets sufficing for Amer ican producers. Not a word abo.ut "for eign competition." Not a word about high tariffs making high wages. With Calhoun and Mcl)uffie, lie is , every where exclaiming "to the sea." Often has the Courier-Journal predict ed that, this might be. Often have we declared that, with plants completed, with processes perfected, with patents, imprints and trademarks secure, the American manufacturer, seeking to cheapen production and to augment cus tom, would exclaim of the restrictive tariff: "Take the nasty thing away! It is a hindrance, not a help. Let us out to the world, to come and go as we please. "We can meet and beat England and we can meet and beat Germany in all the neutral markets, and recover those markets that geographically belong to "us. Down, down with High Tariff" . $ : WHEN APRIL COMES TO TOWN When April comes to town, Faith, what a rhange is there! Green veils of mist upon the brown Nude branches in-the ' Square; Showers of sunlight, too. Where shadows used to be. And planted .things that spread wee wings On sills of jeopardy. The sound of birds aloft; The scent of buds below; The air grown strangely sweet and soft That late was chilled with snow. And over all the lure . Of spring, in brain and breast, To make one dream of the things that , seem More radiant than the rest. Our sordid hearts grow gay, And lo! to meet their inind The very curb-stones by the way Bloom out with blossom-kiud. Tulips and jonquils flah A vivid color where. No littlest root could fix its foot To grace the thoroughfare. Brought town ward by the tide Of spring, in baskets bound. They win a welcome at the side Of princesses uncrowned. Arid Pharoah's daughter ue'er Looked more her royal part. When Moses smiled a flower-like child And nestled next her heart. Julie M. Lippmann. i -4 , Gratitude oftta Katlcr "I've heard a good mapy snake r-tpries since I've been up in these parts," said Col. S. Houston Tutt, of Corsk-ana, Tex., who is in New York representing oil in terests, "and I've seen a lot printed, but-never a one have I struck that equal ed in simple and touching beauty the thing that happened to my brother J.im down on our farm, in Texas. This is the way it happened: Yon gee; Jim was about the kindest hearted' chap that ever lived. One day he was going along out on the farm when he seen a six-foot rattlesnake pin ned down on the ground by u big bould er: thai Jiad fallen, on its tail. --Now, of course, ninety-nine men out of a hun dred would have got a club or a hand ful of , rocks and killed the poor critter right there. But that wasn't Jim. No. sir! Jim gets out his handkerchief and wipes his eyes and then rolls- that bould er eff'n. that snake's tail just as gently as he knew how. "Well, sir. that-V settled it. Talk of gratitude? You ought to seen the grati tude of that rattler. He couldn't njake enough of Jim. Followed him from one end of the farm to the other jest like a Anv Used to-coil. on. under Jim's chair 4- "U 1 1 iki 1 . " 1 1 V t meals and eat out vuf his hand. Ev ery lllgnt vvneu '.Mill em 10 mru uie snake crawled up oil the-, foot of the bed and .slept there till morning. You bet ' they wasn't anybody going to dis turb Jim." , - '. - "One -night Jim woke up feeling kind of queer. He reached down at the foot of the bed. No snake. Up he hopped and struck a match. No snake. Not on the bed, ' nowhere in the room. AVell, sir, tliat minute Jim knew something was wrong. He slipped into his trousers, took his gun and went downstairs. What do -you suppose he saw when he got down in tlw dining .room 't Window wnie open. Snake copied ai-ound. a burglaj- on the iloor, and hi tail out of the window rattling for the police. ' :- THE MINT Jt'LIP 'Tis said that the 'gods, cn Olympus of ' dd ' (And who the bright, legend profanes with a doubt), , One night, 'mid Atheir revels, by Bac chus wore told That his last butt of nectar had some how run out: But, determined to send round the gob let once more, They sued to the. fairer immortals for aid , In composing a draft, which till-drinking were o'er, ... ' ' , Should cast every wine ever .drank in shade. Grave Ceres herself blithely yielded her corn, And the spirit that lives in each amber- hued grain, And which first had its birth from 'the dew of tite morn, Was taught to steal out in bright dew drops again. 1 Pomona, whose choicest of fruits on the board Were scattered profusely in everyone's reach. ' When called on a tribute to cull from the hoard, , Expressed the mild juice of the deli cate peach. The liquids were mingled when Venus looked on ' - With glances so fraught with sweet magical power, . That the honey of Hybia, e'-en whei they were gone. Has never been missed in the draft from that Jlour. . . Flora, then, from her bosom of fragrau cy. shook 1 And with roseate fingers pressed down in the ImiwI, All dripping and fresh, as it came from the brook, The -herb whose aroma should flavor the whole. ' The draft was delicious, and loud the acclaim. Though something seemed wanting for all to bewail; But Juleps the drink of immortals be came, .When Jove himself added a handful of hail. Charles Fenno Hoffman. ' , S-- Southern ladnetrlat Convention (From the Indianapolis Courier-Journal.) The selection of Philadelphia as the place for holding the semi-annual meet ing "of the Southern Industrial .Associa tion, June 11 to 14 next, must have been an inspiration. At the last Convention it was thought proper to select a North ern city, as the South was in a condition that had .already strongly attracted the attention of oNrtherh capitalists and business men generally, hut since then the .Southern position has" been enor mously strengthened. Cotton has had a great part -of its tremendous rise, and though the decline has been sUarp the price is still a remunerative one to his crop at figures that seemed, unreasona ble a year ago. The great' development in the pil ahd coper industries have ! lower agricultural prosperity, while those old standbys, iron an - coal, are in a stronger position than ever' before in their history. Truly, the horn of the South is pour ing out wealth at a rate that was never known before, even in the highly-prosperous ante-bellum days, and her re sources have been brought so prominent ly before the world this year as to in sure a large Northern attendance at the Philadelphia oCnveution. There should be the biggest attendance from the South that the Industrial Association has ever known. ... Let them call it mischief: When it is past snd prospered ,'twill be virtue.
