I give you now ,the benefit of my personal acquaintance with this generation of the Calloims.

"Have axot devoted leaders from the start of Jthe world till now sometimes rid the Jßcene of the responsible figures in lost fights, the men on whom blame irested for failures?" I "Cowards!" rejoined Dr. Ward. ""Cowards, every one of them! Were jthere not other swords upon which (they might have fallen those of their enemies?" It is not my own hand my own sword, Sam," said Calhoun. "Not that. fou know as well as I that I am Ireody marked and doomed, even as sit at my table to-night.

The old doctor shrugged pis shoulders and smiled at the arch apro-slavery exponent. j "Then, since you mention it, yet!" trtorted Calhoun fretfully. "I Jut I shall not go Into the old argument of khose who say that black is white, lat south Is north. It Is only for my wn race that I plan a wider America. Jut then " Calhoun raised a long. ila hand. "Why," he went on slow ly, I have Just told, you that I have failed. And yet you. my old friend, .horn I ought to trust, condemn me Ito live on' j Yes," he said, at length, "I condemn tou to fight on, John;" and he smiled rmly. 'Why, look at you, man!" he broke tut fiercely, after a moment. "The ype and picture of combat! Good fcone,' fine bone and hard; a hard head )and bony; little eye, set deep; strong, fwiry muscles, not too big fighting kuuscles, not dough; clean limbs; trong fingers; good arms, legs, neck; vide chest " 'Then you give me hope?" CUboun lashed a smile at him. "No, sir! If you do your duty, ttere s no hope for you to live. If yon do kiot do yjur duty, there is no hopn for tyou to die, John Calhoun, for more Ithan tTo years to come perhaps five rears Mix. Keep up this worlc as rou mut, my friend and you die as surely as though I shot you through yon sit there. Now, is this any comfort to you?" . .. , A grr pallor overspread my xaaajer's' Iwe. That truth is welccrfne to too man, morbid or sane, sound of 111; put brave men meet it as this got did. j "Time ft) do much!" he murmured reo himsIf. "Time to mend many broken vessel, In those two years. )ne r&ore fight yes, let us hart it!" But Calhoun the man. was lo?t once pore in Calhoun the visionary, the jfanatic statesman. He summed vp, as though to himself, something of the situation which then existed at Washington. f "Yes, the coast is clearer, now that KVebster is out of the cabinet, Yxxt Mr. tUpshur's death last month brtags in pew complications. Had he remained Mir secretary of state, much might fciave been done. It was only ,ast October he proposed to Texi.s treaty Lf annexation." "Yes, and found Texas vpnt so rager," frowned Dr. Ward. "No; and why not? You and! 1 know well enough. Sir Richard Paenham, the English plenipotentiary her, could Jtell if h'e liked. England is busy in fTexas. Texas owes large "unds to England.

'I Don't Pretend to Know make It, the one way or the other," said his friend. "Yes!" The long hand smote on the table. : "President Tyler has offered you Mr. Upshur's portfolio as secretary of state?" "I have not yet accepted," said Calhoun. "If I do, it will be to bring Texas and Oregon into this Union, one slave, the other free, but both vast, and of a mighty future for us. That done. I resign at once." "Will you accept?" Calhoun's answer was first to nick up a paper from his desk. "See, here is the dispatch Mr. Pakenham bronght from Lord Aberdeen of the Br'tlsh mlniitry to Mr. Upshur Just two fays before his death. Judge whether Aberdeen wants libertyor territory! In effect he re-asserts England's right to Interfere in our affairs. We fought one war to disprove that. England has said enough on this continent. And England has meddled enough." Calhoun and Ward looked at nach other, sober in their realization of the grave problems which, then beset American statesmanship and American thought The old doctor was first to break the silence. "Then do you accept? Will you serve again, John?" ! "Listen to me. If I do accept, I shall take Mr. Upshur's and Mr. Nelson's place only on one condition yes, if I do, here is what I shall say to England regarding Texas. I shall show her what a Monroe doctrine Is; shall show her that while Texas is small and weak. Texas and this republic are not This is what I have drafted as a possible reply. I shall tell Mr. Pakenham that his chiefs avowal of intentions has made lt our Imperious duty, in self-defense, to hasten' the annexation of Texas, cost what it may, mean what it may! John Calhoun does not shilly-shally. "That will be my answer," repeated my chief at last. "Yes, I shall have Texas, as I shall have Oregon, settled before I lay down my arms, Sam Ward. No, I am not yet ready to die!" Calhoun's1 old fire now flamed In all his mien. "The situation is extremely difficult" said his friendly slowly. . "It must be done; but how? We are as a nation not ready for war. You as a statesman are not adequate to the politics of al' this. Where Is your political party, John? Yon hav none. You have outrun all parties. ?t will be your ruin, that you hava been honest!" Calhoun turned on him swiftly. "You know as well as I that mere politics will not serve. It w5ll take some extraordinary measure you know men and, perhaps, wonen.' "Yes." said Pr. Ward, "and a precious silly lot they are." Calhoun nodded, with a thin smile. "As it chances, I need a man. Ergo, and very plainly, I must use a woman! "There are two women In or world to-day," said Calhoun. "As to Jackson, the old fool was a monogamist and still is. Not so much so Jim Polk of Tennessee. Never does he appear in public with eyes other than for the Dona Lucrezla of the Mexican legation! Now, on against the other Mexico against Austria " Dr. Ward raised his eyebrows in pernlety. That Is to say, England, and not Austria," went on Calhoun coldly. "The ambassadress of England to America was born in Budapest! So I say, Austria; or perhaps Hungary, or some other country, which raised this strange representative who has-made some stir in Washington here these last few weeks." "An, you mean the baroness! exclaimel Dr. Ward. '.'Tut! Tut!" Car o jn nodded, with the same cold, thin smile. "Yes" he said. "I mean tunately we are capable of dreams which are best dreamed when the spine is vertical and every fiber of mind, soul and heart vibrant and vital. On these occasions we ar in the clasp of our best mood the mood of concept and creation. The wine of this mood is red like blood and the resultant intoxication Is the holiest experience of which we are capable. In its hizh hours the soul is never maud

Now All You Mean." Mr. Pakenham's reputed mistress, his assured secret agent and spy, the beautiful Baroness von Ritz!" He mentioned a name then well known In diplomatic and social life. when intrigue in Washington, if not open, was none too well hidden. "Gay Sir Richard!" he resumed. "You know, his ancestor was a brother-in-law of the duke of Wellington. He himself seems to have absorbed some of the great duke's fondness for the fair. Before he cams to us he was with England's lec?.thra in Mexico. Twas there he firf t met the Dona Lucrezla. 'Tis said he would have remained In Mexico had it not been arranged that she and her husband, Senor Yturrio, should accompany Gen. Almonte in the Mexican ministry here. On these conditions, Sir Richard agreed to accept promotion as minister plenipotentiary to Washington!" "That was nine years ago," commented Dr. Ward. "Yes; and it was only last fall that he was made envoy extraordinary. He is at least an extraordinary envuy! Near 50 years of age, he seems to forget public decency; he forgets even the Dona Lucrezla, leaving her to the admiration of Mr. Polk and Mr. Van Zandt, and follows off after the sprightly Baroness von Ritz. Meantime, Senor Yturrio also forgets the Dona Lucrezla, and proceeds also to follow after the baronet although with less hope than Sir Richard has taste! The Baroness von Ritz has brains and beauty both. It is she who is England's real envoy. Now, I believe she knows England's real intentions as to Texas." Dr. Ward screwed hia Hps for a long whistle, as he contemplated John Calhoun's thin, determined face. "1 do not care at present to say more" went on my chief; "but do you not see. granted certain motives. Polk might come into power pledged to the extension of our southwest borders " "Calhoun, are you mad?" cried Lis friend. "Would you plunge this country into war? Would you pit twt peoples, like cocks on a floor? And weald you tse women in our diplomacy T' Calaoun now was no longer the friend, the humanitarian. He was the relentless machine; the Idea; the single purpose, which to the world at large he had been all his life in congress. In cabinets on this or the otfaer side of the throne of American power. He spoke coldly as he went on: "In these matters it Is not a ques mvinvi um The possession of a great memory does not necessarily mean a strong intellect Mozart, when only 13 yars old, played a new opera from on hearing, which had been composed especially to test his skllL But In addition to reproducing the opera from memory without missing a note, he introduced in the second playing the variations, which struck bis cultured hearers dumb with amazement Blind Tom could probably hava reproduced the same opera.

tion of means, but of results. If war comes, let it come; although I hope it will not come. As to the use of women tell me, why not women? Why anything else but women? It is only playing life against life; one variant against another. That is politics, my friend. I want Pakenham. So, I must learn what Pakenham want3. Doa he want Texas for England, or the Baroness von Ritz for himself?" Ward still sat and 'looked at him. "My God!" said he at last, softly; but Calhoun went on: "Why, who has made the maps ol the world, and who has written pages in its history? Who makes and unmakes cities and empires and republics to-day? Woman, and not man! Are you so Ignorant and you a physician, who know them both? Gad, man, you do not understand your own profession und yet you seek to counsel me In nine!" "Strange words from you, John," commented his friend, shaking his head; "not seemly for a man who stands where you stand to-day." "Strange weapons yes. If. I could always use my old weapons of tongue and brain I would not need these perhaps. Now you tell me my time Is short I must fight now to win. 1 have never fought to lose. I cannot be too nice in agents and instruments." The old doctor rose and took a turn up and down the little room, one ol Calhoun's modest menage at the nation's capital, which then was not the city it is to-day. Calhoun followed him with even steps. "Changes of maps, my friend? Listen to me. The geography of America for the next 50 years rests under a little roof over in M street to-night a roof which Sir Richard secretly maintains. The map of the United States, I tell you, 13 covered with a down counterpane a deux, to-night You ask me to go on with my fight I answer, first I must find the woman. Now, I say I have found her, at you know. Also, I have told you where I have found her. Under a counterpane! Texas, Oregon, thes United States under a counterpane 1" Dr. Ward sighed as he shook hia head. "I don't pretend to know now all you mean." Calhoun whirled on him fiercely, with a vigor which his wasted 'frame did not indicate as possible. "Listen, then, and I will tell you what John Calhoun means John Calhoun, who has loved his own state, who has hated these who hated him, who has never prayed for those, who despltefully used him, who has fought and will fight, since all insist on that It is true Tyler has offered me again to-day the portfolio of secretary ol state. Shall I take it? If I do, It means that I am employed by this administration to secure the admission of Texas. Can you believe me when I tell you that my ambition is for it all all, every foot of new land, west to the Pacific, that we can get, slave or free? Can you believe John Calhoun, pro-slavery advocate and orator all his life, when he says that he believes he is an humble Instrument destined, with God's aid, and through the use of such instruments as out human society affords, to build, not m wider slave country, but a widei America?" 'It would be worth the fight of a few years more, Calhoun," gravely answered his old friend.) "I admit I had not dreamed this of you." "History will not write it of me, perhaps," went on my chief. "But you tell mo to fight, and now I shall fight, and in my own way. I tell you, that answer shall go to Pakenham. And 1 tell you Pakenham shall not dare to take offense at me. War with Mexico we possibly, Indeed certainly, shall have. War on the northwest, too, wa yet may have unless " He paused; and Dr. Ward prompted him some moments later, as he still remained in thought. "Unless what, John? What do you mean still hearing the rustle of skirts?" "Yes! unless the celebrated Baroness Helena von Rltz says otherwise!" replied he grimly. "How dignified a diplomacy have we here! You plan war between two embassies on the distaff side!" smiled Dr. Ward. Calhoun continued his walk. "I do not say so," he made answer; "but, If there must be war, wo may reflect that war is at its best when woman 13 in tie field!" (TO BE CONTINUED.) Oliver Plunkett "Blessed Oliver Plunkett," whose beatification has been approved of by the Vatican council, is the famous primate of Ireland who was executed at TyburnJuly 1, 1631, on a charge of hth treason. There is an excellent contemporary portrait of him in the National Portrait gallery, Trafalgar square. In 1679 he was arrested on the charge of conspiracy to bring 20,000 Frenchmen into Ireland, and of having levied money from his clergy for the purpose of maintaining 70,000 men for an armed rebellion. The principal witnesses against him were some disreputable priests and friars whom he bad suspended for bad conduct HU head is still preserved in a convent at Drogheda. Lesson Well Taught.

Startling Adventure of Schoo! Teacher in Wilderness. Two Animals Get Into Bulld.nj; Through Dugout and Spring Lock After Themselves Attracted by Honey. Cross Fork, Pa. When Miss Lydia vlusser, teacher of a country school In Eulalia township, opened the door of ler schoolroom the other morning she vas confronted by two pupils who were not enrolled In her book. Two riack bears got Into the building iirough a trap door in the floor, which ed Into a dugout underneath used for e storage of wood. Of course Miss Musser, who was ilone, didn't tarry to ask the new scholars their names, nor whether it was the first time they had been to ichooL She slammed the door shut against the spring lock and the bears were again made prisoners, for it was subsequently discovered that they had cut off their ovn egress by the route through which they had come by acciientally slipping the catch on the trapdoor after they were In the room and being unable to open it When Miss Musser opened the door the' bears made a lunge toward her, ioubtless In an effort to reach the door and escape, but the ycung woman believed that they were about to attack Her, so that in her haste to get the door shut she tripped on her skirt and fell !rom the porch, landing In such a manner as to turn her foot and sprain her ankle so that she was unable to rise, and sustaining an Injury from which ihe is not apt to recover for several weeks. She screamed at the top of her voice. The schoolhouse Is fully a mile from the nearest farmhouse, though, fortuaately, a teamster who was within earihot in passing heard her and went to aer rescue. Several pupils on the way :o school also heard her alarm. Miss Musser Informed the man of what she lad seen, but prevented him from unfocklng the schoolhouse until she had been helped out of the reach of danger. The arriving pupils peeked through ixe windows and saw tho' bears. The ihimals were pawing back and forth Ike caged lions and showed every evllence of their fright at being prlsonirs in the schoolhouse under the gaze )f the fast gathering throng and aroused by the noise made by the afMghted boys and girls.

Mew President of Portugal Governed by His Wife. Loves Old Country Place Where They Lived for Many Years, and Will Not Change Her Mode of Living. Usbon. When Senhor Theophllo Braga, the new president was called upon at his country residence, a long, one-story building on a cliff overlooking the Tagus at Cruz Quebrada, seven miles west of Lisbon, it was found he had left for the capital, but his wife, a frail, sweet-faced old lady, with white hair, advanced and insisted that the interviewer should enter. She led him by the hand in motherly fashion to a long, low room, more th?Ji modestly furnished, the windows of which overlooked the wide expanse of blut serene waters but lately seething and smoking under shot and shell. She expressed her regret at her husband's absence, and said that he was delighted to speak to the English people. She was congratulated on her husband's new dignity, it being added she ought to feel proud. "Proud," she exclaimed, smiling doubtfully, "perhaps; but above all I regret the Interruption of 43 years of peaceful domestic hapoiness." In the conversation ...at ensued she said many things of an adorable simplicity, of which the following are a few: "We married for love. TTe have always been poor, and always happy with, one another, except for our great sorrow that we are now childless, for we are ever mourning the loss of our son and daughter 20 years ago. My girl would have been forty now and I should have had grown-up grandchildren around me," she added, with eyes full of tears. "Out we found comfort my husband in his books and I in my household work near him. It was suggested that the change would Involve a change of habits and probably of residence. "No,, no!" exlalmed the old lady, almost terrified. "I have told Theophllo that I will never leave my little home, and pretty garden, where I have lived for 20 years. If we are forced to have a larger house for meetings and receptions, we will keep our little nome to live in always. "We have had Just enough to live on. My husband has always been persecuted because of his opinions, but although he cannot forget, he is

NEW CHEEK BUILT FOR MAN

Operation Apparently Successful, hut Faint Scar Will Bs Left, Declare Physicians. London. The final stage in the operation of making a new cheek for a batient at Guy's hospital, from the I skin cf his arm has been completed. S Th natlent had a large part of his right cheek and upper Jaw cut away in' the removal of a growth six years ago. On September 24 a flap of skin was partly detached from over the biceps of the right arm, and made to cover the sunken part of the cheek by stitching It to the side of the nose and ( mouth. To keep the 6Rin nap, which drew Its blood supply from Its remaining attachment to the arm, in place, the arm had to be bent over the nead and fixed In a plaster cast In that position. Since the skin flap was sewn to the side of the face, enough new blood vessels have sprung up between it and the underlying tissues to render the

THE prince of Monaco having given to his people a constitution after many years of effort on their part to obtain that degree of liberty, the little principality seems to have settled down to comparative calmness. This leaves the prince entirely free to pursue his favorite "study of ocean ography, In which he in an acknowledged authority.

had collected, and with one great push of his paws sent the glass flying in a hundred pieces, following the crash with a plunge that brought his shaggy form all a tumble on to the ground. He had no sooner landed than the second bear followed suit, and in another second the animals were streaking it into the woods, while the boys and girls, of course, were making pell-mell in the other direction. The bear that did the glass breaking evidently cut its paw, for blood In pretty good quantities was to be found along the route .taken by the animals. When the schoolroom was opened and an examination made it was discovered that the bears had played havoc incapable now of seeking to avenge himself on his enemies. "I, too, am a Republican, but I adored King Edward of England, so Just so good, so courteous to all I" She referred to his visit to Portugal and contrasted the enthusiasm of the people in the streets with their indifference towards their own King Carlos. Speaking of a visit of the commander of the English warships, Senhora Braga added, proudly: "And he knew my husband quite well by bis books! Theophllo is so pleased with the good words In the English newspapers," she continued. ."The . monarchists always held up the bogey of English intervention but only ignorant people believed that England would act thus towards another country." With simplicity she added: "One does not give orders In another person's house." Again reverting to ' her favorite theme, home life, she exclaimed, laughing: "Oh, but I scold Theophllo sometimes. Our men folk at home have to be kept under a little." Czar Fless Through Kitchen. Berlin. Accompanied by the grand duke of HeBse, the czar motored to Frankfort-on-Main the other day, alighting at a hotel, the Englischer Hof. When he was ready to depart the czar left the hotel by the way of the kitchen In order to escape the crowds in. front of the entrance. CHILDREN CAN Columbia Professor Would Use Same Scheme As Colleges Now Do With Their Students. Boston. "The present practise of sending exchange students to the European centers ought to be extended to children and young people of both sexes In all walks of life," declared Dr. Ernest Richard, professor at Columbia university, at a meeting of the Twentieth Century club the other day. Professor Richard's plan would enable families with small means to place their children with families in other countries, thus enabling them to study the language of the country and become acquainted with Its business, social and educational enterprises. "The distinguishing feature of children's exchange," he declared, "Is the reception free of expense of foreigners in the home life of the family. There are. of course, many families blood supply from the arm vessels no longer necessaary. The last operation, therefore, consisted of removing the plaster cast cutting the flap away from its remaining attachment to the arm, and fitting it into position over the rest of the denuded area on the face.. No stitches were needed, the antiseptic dressings applied and the new firm attachments to the nose holding the flap in position. The arm wound was also treated antlseptlcally, the arm somewhat stiff, but apparently none the worse for being fixed so long in such a cramped position, being laid comfortably at the patient's side. In another eight days it is expected that the flap will have taken firm root, new cells springing up from the two opposed raw surfaces and knitting them into one. Little scar will be left to show that practically the whole of the right cheek Is composed of skin tissues removed bodily from the right ana.

This is the schoolhouse in which during the summer a colony of bees took up their abode between the wall and the weather boards, where they stored a quite generous supply of honey before being discovered and their sweetmeats confiscated. It is presumed that the bears were drawn to the place by the smell of this honey, or the bees may have made, some of their comb in the little basement of the building, and that this is what first attracted the attention of the bears.
