STORIES OF KRUGER

Deep in a dell a rose was born; the sunbeam kissed it in the morn, And in its cup the dewdrop shone, But no one came to see it bloom, To breathe its sweetness, its perfume, And so it lived and died unknown. Deep in the woods a bird of song Sang in the midnight loud and long, A nightingale by grief pursued. A melody so softly clear As e'er fell on a human ear Was wasted in the solitude.

He Takes Part in the Opening Ceremony

at a Jewish Synagogue.

The followisng stories of Mr. Kruger says the London News, appear in Mr. Hobson’s book about the Transvaal war, published by Nisbet & Co.: "A few days ago he was induced to take part in the opening ceremony at a Jewish synagogue. On entering and taking his place he removed his hat, and paid no heed whatever to the suggestion of his secretary, who explained the Jewish custom of covering the head. When the time came for the President's address, he ejaculated a few brief sentences and amazed his congregation by concluding thus: "l declare this synagogue open in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ." On another occasion, shortly after he had presented, on behalf of the State, a piece of land (an erf) for the building of a Dutch Reform Church, he was approached by an influential Jew, who tendered a similar request on behalf of the Jewish congregation. The President promised to consider the request and soon afterward announced that he had granted it. Shortly after, however, he was waited on by his Jewish friend, who complained that the piece of land they had received was only half the size of that given for the Dutch Reform church. 'Well,’ retorted Kruger, ‘what fault have you got to find? They believe the whole Bible, so they get an erf; you only believe half the Bible, and you get half an erf.’ ”

As the boatman had predicted, there was not a breath of wind, and the signor, secure from the perils of seasickness, poured forth love song after love song, with much rolling of the eyes and teniler glances in the direction of Diana.

Soon Hilly had no heart to throw the obnoxious musician overboard. He eat silent and glum, thinking how in tbs course of a couple of hours he would have parted from Diana forever.

But weep not, 'tis the common lot To toil and die and be forgot; Perhaps in regions bright arid fair, Your hand shall wake the golden chord. And sing the songs that fell unheard On ears made deaf by dismal care. —N. Pearson.

Presently he began to count the minutes, because Diana herself had „ome to his side and bad begun to chat quite Kindly,

Presently she moved away again. Halt the trip was accomplished, for the yacht had drifted to the tail of Gunspit Sand. “It's slack water now, and the ebb’ll be startin’ in a few minutes,” remarked Tom Masterson casually. Then a brilliant idea came to Billy. He considered how, in a short hour and a half, the yacht would have drifted Pack (o her moorings, and he would never see his Diana again. He leaned over to the boatman.

“What are you getting for this trip?” he whispered.

“Pew gents I like better,” replied Tom readily. “Look here, Tom; I want to have a talk with one of the young ladies aboard here,” said Billy unblushingly. “If ft’s to be done, we mustn’t get back to our moorings this tide. it’s dead calm and slack water, and nobody can see. They’re ail singing choruses, and won’t notice if you lay her up on the soft end of the Gunspit, and let the tide leave us there. She’ll float again iu six hours. The night is warm, an’ the ladies have plenty of wraps.” There was a soft rustic of paper—a crisp rustle, such as might be made by the transferring of a banknote from one palm to another. “Worry sorry, ladies and gents,” said a voice, “but a sweep of the tide lias taken us ashore on the tail o’ the Gunspit, so you’ll ’ave to make yourselves as comfortable as ye can till she floats off on the next flood, about 6 o’clock to-morrow mornin’.” * **«««•

An American editor, says Public Opinion, is making a collection of “literary blunders,” which he hopes to publish between covers some day. Here is one, taken from Mr. Clodd’s memories of Grant Allen, which he may consider worthy of record. It consists of a letter written to Mr. Allen by an unknown admirer. "Pardon the liberty I am taking. In your clever story of ‘The Great Ruby Robbery.’ yon mention Browning being splendid for the nerves. It there such a thing? Would you give me the address to obtain it? I am a dreadful sufferer of nervousness; under such circumstances you will accept my apology for troubling.” A schoolmaster recently gave his pupils a lecture on patriotism, says the Scottish-American. He pointed out the high motives which moved the volunteers to leave their homes and fight for their country. The schoolmaster noticed that one boy did not pay attention to the instruction, and as a test question he asked him — “What motives took the volunteers to the war?” The boy was puzzled for a moment, then remembering the public “send off” to the local reserves and volunteers at the railway station, he replied," Locomotives, sir.”

The book that Miss Diana Strangeways was clasping in her small white-gloved hand fell with a crash to the ground. She did not stoop to pick it up nor did Billy.

"The fat’s in the fire now,” he murmured, under his breath. “Now you understand,” he added aloud, "why I said what I did last night. I hate you sitting down on the pier there, iu a row with those old maids who make such a fuss over that blessed tiddler! I hate to see him rolling his eyes at you all the time, playing as though he were playing to you alone and not to the people for whoso benefit the 'Pier company pays him his salary! I hate his beastly, sickly, German waltzes and the pretty medals he wears on that brass-bound red uniform! 1 hate the pier—and—oh. Diana, I hate myself and everything hut you!” . Billy’s eloquence would carry him no further. A lump rose in his throat and a mistiness gathered in his eyes. Diana was gazing steadily out at the blue horizon.

The humorist who declared himself grateful for three ways of disseminating information —the telegram, telephone and tell a woman —was probably ignorant of the case of Mrs. Gladstone, says the Youth’s Companion. Just after her marriage Mr. Gladstone put to her the question, “Shall I tell you nothing and you can say anything, or shall I tell you everything and you say nothing?” She chose to know and to be silent, and during almost sixty years of beautiful married life kept her part of the contract. Dr. Temple tells a good story against, himself, says an exchange. He entered during a popular service in an East End church one night, and, standing in a back pew, joined in the singing of a Moody and San.key hymn. Ncxts to him stood a workingman, who was singing lustily in tune. The. workingman stood the dissonance as long os he could, and then, nudging the bishop, said, in a whisper—“Here, dry up, mister; you’re spoiling the show.”

The signor, after loud complaints and many expressions of fear concerning his personal safety and the harm that might result to his tenor voice from the unwonted exposure, had wrapped himself in his fur-lined coat and had appropriated the only comfortable corner in the boat. Billy watched him as he lay snoring and thought that he had secfl better looking sleepers in his time than the unfortunate scion of the noble House of Chigi. Diana somehow felt that the illusion, created mainly by a large pair of dark, poetic eyes and a smartly braided military jacket, was rapidly vanishing from her mind

"I promised to meet Mrs. Jones on the pier at 3 o’clock,” she said, calmly. “Good afternoon!" Billy recovered i jg speech. "Diana,” said he, appealingly, "won’t you come for a walk with me tonight?”

Billy sat by her side. Early in the night, notwithstanding her protestations, he had taken off his coat and wrapped it around her, and somehow her small, cold hand had found its way into his big, warm palm. Her eyes kept closing; the proud head drooped.-

"I can’.t,” she replied. "Why not ?” “I have promised to accompany Mrs. Jones and her friends for a moonlight sail in the Sandville Belie to-night.”

Billy sat still and waited, while Tom Masterson diplomatically gazed over the stern to watch the rising tide. Lower and lower she drooped. Billy's heart stood still as the tired head nestled down to his shoulder.

Billy turned away without a word. That very morning Mrs, Jones herself had iuvited him to the moonlight excursion. holding out as an inducement that Signor Bernaletto Chigi was going to bring his violin and had promised to sing them a selection of ins Dalian serenades and love songs. Diana watened him from the corner of her eye as he disappeared indoors. Then she turned suddenly and walked down to the beach, where she selected a secluded and sheltered spot under the shadow of a fishing boat that was drawn up on the shore.

“Excuse Ve, sir,” she said, as she took her place at the head of the procession—a place which strong and brave men could hove reached only by wading through gore—“I would like to ask you a question.” “Certainly.” I .p.;

How the French Woman Knew the Washington Girl’s Nationality.

A compliment and a slur in the same breath are in a letter I have just received from a Washington girl who is in Paris. “We were dining at Joseph’s the other night," she writes, "when a delghtfully dressed woman sitting at a table near with a party of three sent one of the men with her to ask father if we were not Americans. She seemed to be saying, 'I told you so,’ to her friends, and as we came out she stopped me in the corridor to explain her odd proceeding. She was politeness itself.

“No. it wasn’t anything especial I just wanted to satisfy myself that times are hard. I don’t really wish to annoy my husband with ray expenses, ana I thought the best thing to do was to come and find out foi certain whether times are hard or whether it is merely the same story that lie lias been telling me every year when the styles come in.”—Washington Star.

“My dear Mr. Martin! So charmed that you have changed your mind and have decided to accompany us!" gurgled Mrs. Jones as Hilly climbed from the shore boat over the gunwale of that famous sailing yacht, the Sandville Belie; "We are expecting Signor Chigi every, moment. His evening performance on the pier finished half an hour ago. I expect he has gone home to get his cloak. He feels the cold so, poor fellow!’’ “We shall sail for three hours. It is half-past 9 now, and we except to he back by half-past 13. Quite romantic, is It not?” gushed Mrs. Jones in his ear. Then he took his refreshment (o the stern sheet, and seated himself by old Tom Masterman ,the owner of the boat.

“Among the things that I have now on the stocks, and in fact well advanced toward completion,” said an inventor of domestic novelties, "is a wov.n wire sheet for hoys’ beds.

I don’t doubt that my wire sheet will prove equally useful, in Ra way. “Jt is a fact familiar to those acquainted with such things, that the growing small boy can kick a ho e through a sheet just as easily as a young mule can kick a hole through an ordinary board fence, and the amount of time that mothers lose in mending such sheets is something dreadful to think of. “My woven wire sheeting will do away with all that.
