Would sion to seeing the 'localltlea of a row? you (Copyright. Mayme Winslow had strange city, and always declined emphatically to "go through any Institution by way of sight seeing. Therefore, It was with rather an 111 grace that she was accompanying her father, who was bound on a tour of Inspection to the Soldiers' Home, having been recently appointed on the board of trustees. The winsome young girl looked very pretty, If petulant, as she came into the office of the commandant of the Home. There were some books and papers her father wanted to examine first of all. "This will be very uninteresting for you, suggested the commandant to Would you not like to go Mayme. through the grounds and see the gardens 7 Mayme acquiesced quite readily. I will get you an escort, be said, leaving the room. When he returned he was accompanied by a young man. "Miss Winslow let me Introduce Lieut. Loranger. He will be pleased to show you about. Mayme glanced up, expecting to see some grizzled veteran. A flush of surprise suffused her face as she beheld a tall, stalwart youth of fine command and appearance. As she walked beside him down the winding driveway leading to the gardens, she sustained her part of a light conversation, but she wondered the while what he was doing In this institution. "I supposed," she ruminated, "that all the Inmates were soldiers of the civil war, too old or too incapacitated to work. I never thought of the war soldiers, but of course they could come, but I didnt think they were In service long enough to get disabled. I should think be would be ashamed to loaf around a Home when he Is young and active. Maybe he was wounded. In pursuance ot this train of thought, she said, aloud: "I suppose you were In Cuba, Lieut. Loranger?" "Yea, and later In the Philippines. I have recently come from there." Were you wounded?" No, he said, smiling. "I was In numerous engagements, but couldn't get hit. "Were you 111? she persisted. "Yes. I had a fever In Manila." "That accounts for It," she thought. "I'll hot he gets a pension, too. "Do you know," she continued aloud. "I had forgotten about any of the young soldiers being here. I thought it was just a home for old men civil war soldiers, you know." A Blight flush came Into bis face. There are a few of the Spanish-Americawar soldiers here. he said. "Of course none of us would be here from choice. Quickly Maymes slight contempt turned to warm pity. "No, I am sure of that, she said sympathetically, and then she tactfully turned the subject. When she reached the rose garden be bade her pick any flowers she chose. 'Oh. are you allowed to pick them?" she asked In surprise. 'The colonel would expect me to Indeed, I quickly. In the hour versation was She found the ly conversant not like to go for would, she a replied that followed their conbright and sparkling. young officer thoroughwith the ways of her world. Why, I had no Idea It waa so late! he exclaimed, suddenly, fes she lodked at her tiny watch and named the hour. "Its the luncheon hour at the Home, or dinner, I believe they call It We must return at once! "Well, I feared we had lost you both! was the colonels laughing remark, as the lieutenant and Mayme entered. "Dinner Is Just about to be served. Mayme walked Into the family dining room, where she saw that covers were laid for the commandant, bis wife, a major connected with the Institution, her father and herself. "I suppose poor Lieut. Loranger has to eat with the other Inmates In the I big dining room," she thought think they might have asked him to This makes us even. dine with ub under the circumstances." As she was about to take her seat the lieutenant entered. "I have to go to the city now," he said, "but of course you win be here on my return. Miss Winslow, and 1 should like to take you for a drive while your father and the colonel are transacting business. ' Mayme accepted this Invitation, and the young Peutenant departed. Immediately after dinner Mr. Winslow received a telegram which necessitated his leaving for home at once. Mayme found herself very loath to leave without aguln seeing Lieut Loranger, and he was quite uppermost in her thoughts on the way home. The next day her recollections of him were still vivid enough to Induce her to send him a package of tew books accompanied by a little note expressing her regret at missing the ride. She received a prompt and responsive reply from him Informing her that he contemplated paying a visit to Mrs. Mordaunt. who lived In Maymes vicinity. In a few days, and he hoped to be allowed to renew their acquaintance. Hy chauce she met Mrs. Mordaunt on the street that very afternoon, and that lady Invited her to a lawn fete she was to give for the young lieutenant the following week. The night of his arrival In the city Mayme came Into the library In response. to his card which the maid lad brought to her.. "I owe you an apology." she said with a smile, as she took his outstretched hand. "Mrs. Mordaunt tells me you are a United States army officer home on a furlough, anil a brother-in-la,of the commandant of tho Home." It Is I who should apologize and explain. When it dawned upon me that you thought I was an Inmate a most natural Inference I was so taken by surprise I did rot explain. 1 felt that yon were secretly feeling contempt for my feigning Inability to work, and then suddenly when I told you I had been 111, your marnor changSustained her part of a light convered so completely and you were so symsation. pathetic that I feared a disclosure pick you some, certainly." he replied, might change your demeanor again wlih the quick flush recurring again.

' Calhouns Slaves Cared for by Grandsons. The future of the mgro Is not a problem with the old aristocrats of the south, even where the families have taken up their residences, as many of them have, in New York, says the New York Press. Two of the grandsons of John C. Calhoun live in this city. The old col ored mammy who served them in their Infancy Is cared for by them as tenderly as if she was born of their bone. Mammy Jane, as she Is known In the family and .to the Immediate friends of the family. Is far better cared for than If she had accepted her freedom. Mammy Janes son Is the coachman in the family, and his son is the butler, and the butlers son Is the boy at the door, or, as he would be called In the south, "Buttons. In connection with this remnant of the days of slavery the following story when Is related of "Mammy Jane she was living In "Chawlstun. It was a part of her duties to attend the gate and receive the cards of callers. The bell was on the gate of the southern homes and visitors did cot leave their carriages until the servant of the house waited upon them at the gate. Mammy Jane, like all good house servants in the south, understood her business. On the occasion referred to one of the callers asked if Miss M. C. was at home. said No, mum, she aint In Mammy Jane In her best manner. Is Miss Sallfe C. In? lnqnlred the caller. Mammy Jane happened to know that Miss Sallie was not to be seen that day by any one except the fara il.v, and curtsying very low, she re piled: "No, mum. Miss Sallie am particumum. and she re larly out tired In her loftiest manner. ," to-da- Didnt Miss the Train. Some time since two merry sons from the land of the shamrock were walking down a railroad track of one of the suburban lines, and so interested were they in an animated conversation that they didnt hear the rumble of a train that was rapidly bearing down upon them. The warning whistle came too late for one of them, and before he could sidestep he was ungently lifted to a bank some feet away. Instead of dying on the spot he 'sat up, rubbed his eyes a few times, and then his face broke into a broad smile. "Shure, Molke," said the one who had nimbly jumped from the track and esetped a rude Jar, "do yez think It is a joke to be kilt? "Begorra, an who said It was? returned Mike. "Thin phat alre yez grinnln about, yez hay then? asked Pat. "Nothin, was the reply, "except that was ther flrrust tolrae In me loife that I didnt miss a train."

Herrick of Lawrence for many years high sheriff of Essex county, always took a keen in terest In the Lawrence schools, and was for a long time chairman of the school committee. Visiting the Saun dors school soon after the of Garfield, Sheriff Herrick spoke to the pupils of the life of the late distinguished statesman, and thus asked, genially: "Now, can any of you tell me what a statesman Is? A little hand went up, and a little girl replied: A statesman Is a man who ntaWs speeches. answered Mr. Hr? Hardly that rick, who loved to tell this story. "For, Instunce, I sometimes make speeches, and yet I am not a statesman. The little hand again went up, and the answer came, triumphantly "I know; a statesman is a man makes good speeches!
