    MEMORIES.
Ghosts of depArted bettor dnys,
Vngnr; spectres of forgotten Hoonos,
Peace-MettsenRers whom prtgeucc brings
Tranquility, when twilight flings
Its purple gloom, nnd niglit convenes
Her spirits in the amber haze.
Dark-robed magicians by whose art
Forgotten forms are conjured up,
Shrewd alchemists whose cunning hold
Turns recollection's rusts to gold,
And pours in fancy's silver cup
The dews of peace to still my heart,
I welcome you this lonely night,
Crowd round my clinir and revel free,
Nor mind the storm-king's fractious shout
Who holds wild carnival without,
Throw charmed mantles over me,
Sly restless heart with dreams delight.
j
Haste, while the deep'ning shadows steal
A-down the dusky path of night,
Dim harbingers of spirit hjinds
Who lure the sold to unknown'lands,
Haste, while the embers' (lying light
Its mystic picture-lore reveals.
What glories in your largess seem!
What grotesque forms your magic
makes,
And in the lights that come and go
Dream-plmntnm of the long ago
Its visions of dead days awakes,
And sets thought's smouldering fires a
gleam. What strange emotions thrill the heart
As each Elysian shade appears!
Sweet apparitions gliding by
As clouds float o'er a summer sky
Those spirit-forms of bygone years,
These phantasmas of mem'ry's art.

ARIK," I began
awkwardly, for
I had never pro
posed before,
"you must know
you must have
seen for a long
time that that
I lovu you."
Marie said
nothing, but sat
looking down at
her hands, which
were twisting a
bit of lace that
she called a
h a n d k e rchlef.
She was smiling
before I began. She now looked dis
tressed. I do not like for Marie to look dis
tressed, for she then looks as If she
were going to cry. And a crying wo
man Is not pretty. So for the minute I
laid aside my own affair to comfort
Mnrlc.
"Marie," I began, venturing with
much trepidation to lay my hand softly
upon botti of hers, "what's the mat
ter?" She looked up. Her lips were quiv
ering, and a tear, balanced for the
start, stood in each eye.
"I don't know what to do," she whis
pered brokenly.
"Well?" I said, Inquiringly, inviting
her to continue.
She hesitated nervously for several
seconds. Then she went on almost iu
audlbly: "You see, Mr. Transonic told mo last
night what you told me just now."
"Damn Transome!" I wild to myself;
find to Marie, "Well, Philip Transonic
Is a fine fellow, you know."
"Of course," said Marie, acquiescing
a little too readily, I thought.
"And he's good-looking."
"Yes."
"And rich."
"Yes."
This llemlnlng a rival's good points
to comfort the woman you love Is rath
er straining on one's generosity. It
Isn't so bad If the woman rewards your
generosity, as of course she should,
ltut Marie didn't. So I stopped.
"Well, where's the trouble thou?" I
asked nt length.
"I don't know what to do," she re
plied, repenting her former wall.
"I began to see. It Is hard to decide
between two lovers. I could sym
pathize with Marie, for I had once been
In a similar predicament myself.
Marie did not notice the sympathy.
Bhe merely looked uncomfortable at
tills buhl statement of the dllllculty.
Put she did not deny It.
"You like me, don't you?" I ventured,
with some fear In my heart,
Marie nodded. I felt very com
placent. "And you like Philip Transome?" I
continued.
She nodded a second time. I believe
I swore at Transome again.
"Hut you cau't decide between us.
Is that it?"
"That's It," acknowledged Marie,
weakly.
"You have tried every way?"
"I have, and I can't" here Mario
blushed, but It was a blush 1 did not
like, because It was for Transome as
much as It was for me -"and 1 can't tell
which of you I like the better."
The person who sits In the stmt of the
undecided sits not easily. This I knew.
And any decision is letter than no de
cision. This also 1 know. So out of
the sympathy which I had for Marie
I made up my mind to help her arrive
at some decision, even though I lost by
It. Put 1 did not lutend losing If I
could help It,
1 thought for a long time, but noth
ing came. Then 1 looked up at Marie.
Her eyes were lixed expectantly on
Hie, as though she had Instinctively
Ion rued of my Intention to help her and
was awaiting my plan.
"Well," said I, seizing on an Idea that
Just then popped Into my head, "since
you have tried all oilier ways, sup
pose you toss up for us."
"What!" exclaimed Marie, half start
ing from lier chair.
"Toss up for us," I repeated, calmly.
Marie sank back in her nualr nnd
gazed at uie In amazement.
Marie's, surprise at my suggestion
angered me somewhat. Of course I
can understand that choosing a hus
band in such a way may seem a little
queer to some girls. Put they needn't
act as though it wore so unusual. lie
sides, there are worse ways.
"Toss up for you:" Marie managed to
grasp out at length.
"Certainly," I replied with some as
perity. "Have you anything better o
Suggest?"
A reluctant "No" came from Marie.
"You'd better toss up, then," I said,
decisively, drawing a quarter from one
of my pockets and offering it to her.
She took it and gazed at it for a long
time. I began to grow Impatient, for
the coin was like any other of its kind,
and I could see no reason why she
should study It. Then I saw that her
look was the look of one who is think
ing. Suddenly she raised her head and
gazed steadily at me. And then a smile
that I liked strangely well slowly came
Into her eyes.
"No, you do it," she said, returning
the coin. "I don't know how."
We both stood up. "Ileads, it is
Transome; tails, it is IV" I suggested,
briefly.
Marie nodded.
I balanced the coin on my first finger.
I felt sure of the result, for the man
never lived who Is as lucky as I am.
I even began to pity poor Transome.
Put before this feeling had much op
portunity to grow I Hipped the quarter
whirling into the air, and, as it struck
the floor, placed my foot upon it.
I looked at Mario. "Which shall it
be?" I asked, softly.
"You," she whispered.
I slipped my foot aside and we both
stopped. The laurel-wreathed head of
Liberty was up.
It was Transome!
We both straightened up. I looked
at Marie and Marie looked nt me. She
was pale, and I could not have been
otherwise. I had risked all on the turn
of a coin and it had turned the wrong
way. Without a word, for I was not
Wise in the ways of women, I walked
out of the room, secured my hi t In the
hall, and started to open the door and
go out into the street.
As my hand was turning the knob
something touched my arm. I turned
and looked nround. There stood Marie,
with a little smile a little beseeching
smllL on her face.
"Dick," she whispered, and then was
silent. I still held on to the door knob.
"Dick" this time the smile was still
more beseeching "cau't you see? It's
It's you, anyhow."
I saw, and my hand left the door
knob. And In the little excitement that
followed I also may have kissed Marie.

The man in the general delivery win

letter for a certain man, had made a
mysterious sign to a muscular Individ

a near-by bench and who had told the
owner of the letter that he was under
arrest. The latter had protested and
made threats for the "outrage," but
had accompanied the man with a de
tective's star under his coat. The spec

It was the regular way of catching
criminals, and was evidently much

CAPTAIN OF A STEAMBOAT.
MPS. IDA MOORE LACII
mund, captain of the steam
er Robert Dodds, is the only
woman In the log-rafting business.
Her home is in Clinton, Iowa. She
is a Colonial Dame, a Daughter of the
Revolution and a relative of the Pat
terson family of Philadelphia. She is
justly proud of her success in timber
towing on the Mississippi. Six years
since .Mrs. Lachnmnd purchased the
Robert Dodds and fitted It up for tow

waters of the Mississippi to the big

mills at points as faE as 500 miles
southward. She handles more than
$500,000 worth of logs ench season, and
In transit they are entirely at her own
risk. This is no small responsibility,
as the rafts are kept lying in hundreds
.of bays and sheltered places along the
river, in order to keep the mills in ma
terial. In an emergency the steamer
makes a run to one of these bays and
drops a raft at the mill's dock. Mrs.
Laehinund brings rafts of a million
feet down the river, and she plans her
trips so that the mills she supplies are
never idle. The value of the rafts
ranges from $10,000 to $12,000 each.
An ordinary raft covers a surface area
of five acres. All the details of the
business and the management of the
boat and crew are under Mrs. Lacu
mund's supervision. She buys her
stores and fuel and hires her' own
hands, and she is as familiar with the
steamer and the rafting as any man
on the boat. The crew of the Robert
Dodds consists of twenty-one picked
men. The river men, from master to
roustabout, treat Mrs. Lachmund with
the utmost deference, and her crew Is
one of the best on the Mississippi.
Mrs. Lachmund's home Is in Clinton,
Iowa, where her husband Is in busi
ness. They have three sons, the eld
est of whom is a sophomore In the Uni
versity of Chicago. The two younger
ones are in a preparatory school In
Clinton. Their home is one of comfort
nnd refinement. Mrs. Lachmund is a
handsome- woman, sensitive and re
fined. She is an accomplished musi
cian and fond of literature and society.

l'uper Published by Women.
There has just been launched in
Taris a dally paper devoted Bolely to
the Interests of the fair sex. It Is pro
duced entirely by women, and not only
are the editors, the managers and the
staff of reporters women, but the type
is set by female compositors, , and It Is
reported that even the printers' devils
are feminine members of the genus
"gamin." The name of the paper Is
I.a Fronde. Vsed as a noun, this means
the Implement of ancient warfare with
which David slew Goliath, while to the
verb "fronder" the translation to sling,
to censure, to blame, to criticise and to
oppose all equally apply, and. judging
from the first number, are singularly
appropriate, since It is full of abuse of
everything that can be possibly eou
strtied as the handiwork of man.

Cummlugs, Oil., in six years. Miss

Women Not as Neat us Men.
Women, in the opinion of a writer In
Godey's Magazine, are very neglectful
of the minor details of their dress. In
comparing the fair sex with men in
matters of neatness the writer says:
' "Women are endowed with strange
vagaries, and while extremely fastid
ious in many ways are very neglectful
In others. Even the swellest society
girl is not as particular as to the fresh
ness of her collar and cuffs as the
plain, everyday man of business; to
change his linen a.t least once a day is
a sort of religion with most men. With
women it is different. They will in
spect their collars and cuffs after a
hard day's wear, and decide that they
will do, not recognizing the fact that if
any doubt exists on the matter they
Bhould be consigned to the laundry
without a demur. Again, a man is
much more concerned as to the state
of his shoes than a womau; even the
poor clerk on his meager salary spends
his nickel a day for a shine without
grudging, and if it be Imperative that
the nickel be saved he gets up earlier
In the morning and wields the black
ing brush himself. The woman will
gown herself in Worth's or Paguin's
latest creation and forget to look at
her shoes; she Is willing to condone
the loss of one or two buttons and the
consequent baggy appearance of her
extremities; like the peacock, she
trusts to the gorgoousness of her plu
mage, nnd hopes that her skirts will
cover all defects."
Girl Buns an Engine.
California has a young girl who has
solved the mysteries of the locomotive
throttle. The curves and grades of
the roads are not obscure to her. She
is Miss Lola M. Coulter, a fair-haired
girl of 14, and when she met her first
railroad train a few weeks ago it was
only a few days before she was in the
cab. She lives in Tuolumne County,
where railroad trains have been uu
kuown until recently.
She Immediately made the acquaint
ance of Engineer Brown, and after
three or four lessons she could manage
the throttle, set the brakes, round up
toward the turns and put on more
speed for the steep grades. Engineer
Brown says she learned how to handle
the engine much quicker than any fire
man he ever had in a cab with him,
and that he never had to repeat any In
structions. It appeared to be second
nature with her to operate machinery,
for she mastered the most difficult de
tails almost Instantly. The more in
tricate the mechanism the ensler she
learned its use nnd just how It was
affected by adjacent pieces. Her cool
head nnd steady nerves never fall her
and she always has her hands on the
throttle and air brake lever to bring
the train to a standstill at a moment's
notice.
Conducts a Grocery Store.
Another Denver girl has come to the
fore by striking out in business for her
self. She Is Miss Elizabeth Collins,

she hardly knew what business to

Novelty in Bridesmaid.
It was something of an innovation at
a wedding lately to have the brides
maids enter four by the right and four
by the bft door of the church. It was

at first notice tnai two processions
were simultaneously making their way
to the altar. The bride, on her father's
arm, entered by the middle aisle, when
her attendants had accomplished about
half the distance up the right and left
aisles. She was preceded by two ush
ers and her maid of honor walking
alone, another pair of ushers closing
the procession. As the bridesmaids
reached the chancel they formed a lane
through which the bride slowly passed,
to be met at the altar steps by the
groom.
