THE LAST REFJUCE,
I.
iLet com* what may, they can not take
On* refuse that my heart has known
And made to be its secret own,
A web of dream that shall not break.
From the harsh turmoil of the world
No dogging step can follow me
Where every shout fades silently
And every flag is dumbly furled.
There only docs my unrest cease
Where struggling fear and hope recede
And leave me, in my sorest need,
The tender dusky tide of . peace.

Then let them halter loud about,
These winds of life, these waves oi men.

And left the strange -.confused rout;
As from a noisy clamorous feast
The master might unnoticed turn
A-.'l watch the rising dawn-lights burn
Their tender flushes u;> the east;
Feeling himself borne far awav
From shouts of mingling revel eYs.
For him alone the dawn-wind stirs,
For him alone is born the day.
Eis are the purple misty hills
And his me e:oud-spires oi the shy,
"Where the undiscovered cities lie.
And bis-the light that through them thrills.

% $ r.nd his partner swerved j
quickly to the right just in
time to avoid a collision.
. It was the last night at Prince's.
. and the skating rink was c.owd~d
with eager skaters, who licw along
the ice to the enlivening strains of the
Blue Hungarian Band. The beii had
just rung in order to clear the rink of
all except the waltzers, and the swish
of the skates intermingled pleasantly j
Witn tfi-e sou nurn or voices.
"Who's that gir!?" ashed a man who
was watching this particular couple
with keen interest. ""Nobody seems to
know much about her."
"Clietwynd Hartop brought her, I
think; he's not generally over particular.
but she must be somebody, or Preston
wouldn't be seen with her every
holiday like this!" replied his companion.
"He's not to be caught napping.
By .Tove! she is handsome,,
though. Look, they are coming round!"
The couple flew past like a Sash of
lightning, and were lost among the
crowd again.
"It's the last day!" she exclaimed.
"Yes. it has been rippin' meeting yon
like this. I never thought we should
become such pals, you know!" Percy
Preston answered, letting his eyeglass
drop from his eye. "I say, I'd like to
see more of you. How is it we never
meet at the same houses?"
"I don't know the same people as
you do," she replied, "and I'm always
so much engaged."
"I get so beastly bored with them
all," he continued; "you seem different,
somehow."
"I suppose yon don't associate with
many people outside your own set?"
she asked.
"No; one never knows wliat dreadful
people may claim one's acquaintance,
if one isn't particular. Shall we reTerse?"
"I think it's better to take people for
what they are and not who they are,"
she exclaimed, and he did not see the
sneer on her face. He was too busy
steering them safely along.
"That's all very well in theory, but
it doesn't work," he answered. "Society
won't stand that sort of thing. A
fellow must think of appearances."
The waltzing stopped, and the rink
was again crowded with the usual
skaters.
"Are you tired, or shall we go on?"
he asked.
"It's our last day," she murmured.
*Let us go on."
Ke took her hands in his and together
they started off once more.
"It shan't be the last time wc- meet,"
he thought to himself, "if I can help
it. I say," he exclaimed aloud, "you
know these days have been my one
relief from social boredom."
"You flatter me," she laughed. "But
I am afraid this one must be our last."
"You are going away?" he asked,
looking at her keenly.
"No."
"Then can't we arrange something
n-mnrrnw?*'
"You're very persistent," she ex-1
claimed.
He smiled in a sickly way.
"I am when I want to be, don't you
know. And I've made up my mind
about you. Are you going to the Wentworths'
dance to-morrow evening?"
"I don't know the Wentworths," she
answered.
'Some people object to them." he continued,
"sav she's peculiar, and all
that. I believe her father did make
his money in glue or something of the
kind, but since she has married Wentworth,
that has all been whitewashed
over. He's a rippin' good chap. Does
the thing splendidly with her money."
"Money seems to be your chief
thought," she said. "I suppose you
wouldn't be seen with any one if they
vrere badly dressed, even though they
wight be above you in rank?"
"Well, it would make a fellow look
?o small in the eyes of his friends.
Nowadays we judge so much by appearances.
don't we?"
_ "And the opinion of the world is a
matter of such high importance, isn't ]
it?" J
He did not detect the sarcasm in her |
tone. He was not endowed with too j
much wit.
"I am not really like that, though,"
he hastened to assure her. "Once I
like & person I'd stick to them through
thivk or thin."
"I'll remember that," she repeated,
significantly. "One doesn't meet that
sort of a friend every day. But this
must be our last round, for people are |

The band was playing one of Strauss' I
valses. Percy Prestou felt almost romantic.
"Where are you going to-morrow
evening?" he asked eagerly. She hesi
tated a moment, then gave a little
laugh.
"Shopping," she said.
"So am I." She looked startled.
"With my sister." he added, hurriedly.
"I often do." They both laughed.
"Where shall it be, then?" he inquired
again, as tliey stopped skating.
"I really must go now." she cried.
"Well, if you insist, Gayford's at 12.
Good-by."
"Good-by," he replied. "Don't forget."
And they parted.
It was some minutes past 12 the next
morning when Perojr Preston and his
sister entered Gayford's, Bond street;
he looked eagerly around. Ilats of
every description greeted him on all
sides, but he saw no signs of the partirM-'ur
norcnn frtr xclmm lio W9fi SW?k
ing. She had distinctly said 12 o'clock,
and it was now only a few minutes
past. Surely, she could not have come
and gone again so soon. That would
be too annoying. He had looked forward
to seeing her so much, too, that it
would be a morning sadly wasted if j
she did not come.
He watched the door eagerly each J
time it was opened to admit some new
customer, but still she did not appear.
Would she break her promise? At
last, in despair, he turned impatiently
to his sister, who was busy trying on
a large black hat.
"It suits madam beautifully, does it
not?" exclaimed a voice at his side.
He started violently. He would know
that voice anywhere. But surely?no,
it was impossible. He turned in
amazement, and took one look at the
tall, black-robed figure, who was now
trying on the hat herself in order to
show it off to its best advantage. For
one instant they gazed at each other,
he with horror, she with calm amusement.
Then, without a moment's hesitation
he looked quickly away again
and made a bolt for the door.
"Good heavens!" he muttered. "What
an escape; Thank goodness no one
saw. I could never have looked society
in the face again. To think that
she was a By Jove! I've never |
been so taken in before."
"Thank goodness," she was thinking,
though she felt a strange choking in
her tnroat, one uoesn t meet irienas
like that every day." But aloud she
said:
"To what address shall I send it, 1
madam? The gentleman seems to have
gone."
This, by the way, was the first mistake
of the kind he had ever made in
his life.?Evelyn Vanderzee,in Madame.
Fifth Chesp in Florida and Cuba.
Commissioner George W. Bowers, of
the Bureau of Fisheries, returned yesterday
from Florida and Cuba, where
he went to study the culture of sponges
and the marketing of fish in that community.
"I have always held," said Mr. Bowers,
"that the old woman who raised
chickens and the Bureau of Fisheries
were the greatest benefactors of mankind.
As long as chickens ancf fish are
to be had all the beef trusts in the
world cannot run the meat market up
unreasonably, because the masses of
people will then eat chickens and fish."
Mr. Bowers stated that the fish markets
of Havana were a model of efficiency
and thoroughness. This condition
is probably due to the large number
of Catholics, who are heavy consumers
of fish.
In Florida Mr. Bowers found that
fish were generally eaten, and were remarkaby
cheap. The negro fishermen,
bringing in shad and other fish from
the St. John River and other streams,
where they are plentiful, sell them to
the dealers at three cents each, and the
consumers can procure fish weighing
from two to five pounds each, for a
nickel. This assures the poor people
an abundance of cheap food.?Wash- j

Shake in Horse'* Eye.
Dr. Murray, a veterinarian, of Perry,

a horse belonging to a reservation
farmer named George Blair, cut into
the eyeball and after fishing a short
time brought out a wriggling, twisting
snake of a white color and perfectly
developed head, says the Cincinnati
Commercial.
The doctor says he got there through
the blood when young and would have
continued growing until the horse was
blind or dead. Such cases are mentioned
in the horse doctor books, but
are exceedingly rare. The horse's eyesight
is apparently as good as eversince
the operation.

Boldly Asserts Bailey of Texas
on Senate Floor.
HE HITS AT ROOSEVELT
f j i k i
i-iwmjr nai.is.ei ri tcipiidica ay newspaper
Correspondents ? Tiliman
Corroborates Assertion cf the
Texas Senator.
The controversy over the rate bill
negotiations came to a sensational
climax Wednesday when Senator Bailey
of Texas rose to a question of
personal privilege to make reply to ft
charge made in The Chicago Tribun#
of Tuesday by a Washington correspondent
to the effect that Mr. Bailey
had been responsible for the failure
of the agreement between the president
and Senator Tillman. Former
Senator Chandler was given as authority
for the statement that Tillman
had been suspicious of Bailey,
who, it was also stated, was really
opposed to rate legislation and was
also in constant conference with Senator
Aldrich, with the pu:^se of defeating
the rate bill.
After this statement had been read
Mr. Bailey took the floor and said
deliberately:
"I have taken no part in the question
of veracity between the president
and Mr. Chandler, and I had not even
given any public expression on the
question of good faith because I
knew nothing about either question.
I hawe never conferred with the president
directly, nor with Mr. Chandler.
It was, therefore, a matter of gr^at
surprise to me when a senator called
my attention to the extract which I
have had read.
' The correspondence, I understand,
was sent by a correspondent who is
very close to the white house and
is presumed to speak with some degree
of authority concerning transactions
there.
"I do not knew as to the truth of
that, and I do not charge that his
statement was made with authority,
but I do denounce the publication as
an unqualified, deliberate and malicious
lie. I denounce that correspondent
as an unqualified, deliberate and
malicious liar. I denounce the man
who inrw'red the statement as an unqualified,
deliberate and malicious liar,
whoever he may be, and however high
the office he holds."
The statement was made in a deliberate
monotone, but it was none
the less impressive.
It was received with absolute silence,
and the silence continued for
a few moments, until indeed Senator
Tillman had taken the floor, also on
a question of personal privilege, because
the article quoted had stated
that he had been suspicious of Mr.
Baileja
He had read the parts of the correspondent's
letter which Mr. Bailey had
emitted and then proceeded with his
statement, saying:
"This correspondent is undoubtedly
a muck-rake. Into whose house the
handle goes, or what hand holds it,
I will not attempt to say."
He said 'he counted eight distinct
falsehoods in the article, but he desired
to address himself first to a denial
that he had ever been suspicious
of Senator Bailey. He declared his?
great esteem and admiration for the
Texas senator, and that their cordial
relations had always existed. Articles
of this character were being sent
broadcast over the country, said Mr.
Tillman, at the instance of the republican
machine to "befuddle" the situaJ
ticn.
[ When Senator Tillman concluded
l
Senator Bailey again took the floor
j and said that his attention had been
j called to another article printed in
j the New York Tribune. He said it
was of the same character as that
printed by the Chicago Tribune, and
that evidently they bid been timed to
1 A <-.Vi in rH-on of t'na
I Onn?? UUtii u; .loiiiugtvu ax, UIAV^
same time. Pointing to the - ess gallery,
he said:
"I intend to put in the record upon
the statement of more than one reputable
newspaper correspondent in that
gallery, and as a rule they are as
honorable as senators on this floor.
On their authority, I state that the
two chief cuckoos of this administration
are the correspondents of the
New York Tribune and the Chicago
Tribune.
"And, therefore, it seems to be conclusive
that this slander proceeds
from the white house. I hope, for
the honor of my country, that it does
not proceed from the president hintself."

POLICEMAN ON THE RACK.
Atlanta Officer Answers Charge or" Police
Matron of Being Too Free
With Female Prisoners.
r r
The opening act of one of the most
important police trials in the history
of Atlanta was presented in the recorder's
court room Thursday, when
the sensational charges of the police
matron, Mrs. Mary Bohnefeld, against
Police CaDtain Z. B. Moon, were read
and witnesses on both sides heard
by the board of police commissioners.
Mrs. Bohnefeld stated to the board
that she had stood the conduct of
Captain Moon just as long as she
could, but that finally she had decided
that rather than endure it longer
she would brave jthe publicity ensuing
from her action, and make formal
charges against the captain in order
to protect the women and children
under her charge from his attentions.
She claims that she was ignorant
of her own rights and did not know
that she was able to exclude a obtain
from her department, and had
not learned of her power to do so
until some six weeks ago.
The full text of the formal charges
preferred against Moon by Mrs. Bohnefeld
are as follows:
"First?'That he has been guilty of
conduct unbecoming an officer and a
gentleman, and of a violation of the
ordinances of the city of Atlanta, and
of the rules of the police department
of said city, in that:
"(1.) The said Captain Moon has,
without respect to or regard for your
relator's rights and duty as police
matron, and without your relator's
consent or permission, for a period
of time extending through his present
term of office, and longer, made
almost daily visits to the ward of the
station house where female prisoners
are confined, and which is under the
control of your relator as police matron,
said visits being unnecessary
and made by him, not for the . irpose
of performing any official duty; that
it is his habit and custom to make
frequent visits to said female, ward,
sometimes several on the same day,
particularly when 'sporting women'
are confined there; that it is his custom
on such occasions to talk with
lewd characters in a familiar way,
laughing and talking with them in
the presence of all the female prisoners,
and taking undue liberties with
said prisoners and allowing them to
take undue liberties with him, that
lie frequently calls them aside or
down the stairway and holds long
and familiar conversations with them;
that he enters said ward at all times
without warning or permission and
has on frequent occasions gone into
the rooms where undressed females
were confined, sometimes alone, and
shut the doors and remained therein
with said prisoners for periods of
time lasting from fifteen minutes to
half an hour or more; that he has
treated your relator without the respect
due her as a woman and as a
member of the police department;
that on account of his said conduct,
it had become impossible at the time
of the filing of your relator's former
communication, and if such conduct
continues it will be iir^-ssiblc for
your relator to protect the privacy
due the sex of the prisoners under
her care, and to conduct her department
with decent regard to the sensl
bilities and rights of virtuous unfortunate
and innocent children detained
in said ward, and to insure the proper
conduct of perscns confined in said
ward.:f
Following the charges is a long list
of specifications.

BURTON DISGRACED

High Court Goes Against
Kansas Senator.
I
JAIL TERM AND A FINE !
I
Also Deprived of Right to Hereafter
Hold Office Under Government.
Must Resign Seat in the Senate
or Ee Forced Out.
The suyieme court of the United
States Monday rendered a decision in
the case of United States Senator 1
Joseph R. Burton of Kansas. The
decision was against Burton, afiirining
the decision of the United States
circuit court for the eastern district '
of Missouri, by which Burton was
sentenced to six months' imprisonment
in the jail of Iron county, Mis- '
souri, required to pay a line of ?^,500
and deprived of the right to hereafter
hold office under the government.
The opinion was by Justice Ha?lan.
All of the point- made in Burton's
interest were overruled.
Senator Burton was prosecuted cn
the charge of violating section 17S2
cf the revised statutes, which prohibits
senators and representatives from
receiving compensation for services
rendered before any of the government
departments in any matter in
which the government may be interested.
He was specifically charged
with accepting a fee of $500' per
month for five months from the Riaito
Grain and Securities company of St.
Louis for services rendered that company
in an effort to prevent the issuance
of an order by the postoffice department
prohibiting the use of the
mails by the company.
Justices Brewer, White and Peck
ham united in dissenting opinion delivered
by Justice Brewer.
The court granted a motion to
give sixty days to Senator Burton -n
which to prepare a petition for a rehearing.
The action will have the
effect of taking the case over until
the October term of court.
That the senate will be compelled to
take cognizance of the case is indicated
by the decision. Justice Harlan
held that the sentence could not
cover an election to the United States
senate as they do not hold their
places under the government of the
United States.
To the newspaper men who called
to see him, Senator Burton said:
"I shall adhere to my original policy
of saying nothing until my case
is finally determined." He would net
say, in reply to a question, that he
intended to take further legal steps,
but from the fact that he does not
regard his case as finally decided, in
view of the sixty days granted for a
, rehearing, it is inferred that he will
do so.
If Senator Burton does not resign
"at once," as a prominent senator
puts it, a resolution will be introduced
to declare Iris seat vacant.
VICE CONSUL ASSASSINATED.
W. H. Stuart, Our Representative at
Batoum, the Victim.
i . W. H. Stuart, the American viceconsul,
was shot and killed at his
country plrce near Batoum Sunday
night. The assassins escaped.
Mr. Stuart was a British subject,
and one of the largest ship brokers

last fall bis life was many times
threatened by longshoremen whom he
had offended.
Batoum is situated upon the east
coast of the Black sea, and has a population
of 20,000, chiefly Turks and
Armenians.
The European population, including
Russians, is of about 5,000. It is in the
heart of ihe Russian oil district, and
tiie shipping of petroleum is the chief
industry.
The state department has received
confirmation of the murder in a message
