OVER THE WRONG WIRE
A Telephone Message in Switz
erland and its Consequences to
an American
“When I wns ibjSwi'z rland.’
said ike re'urnn g I'aveil r 'o a
writer for the Detroit Free Pr<»«.
“I had an accident happen to me
that almost caused my oeath.
1 was topping at a hotel at the
foot of a mountain atid one of the
hottest nights lever felt any
where. I went to my room and
openmg up everything I went to
bed and to sleep, fori was dead
tired after a long,hard day's climb
on the mountain.
I don't know how long I slept,
I ut for a long time before I awoke
I whs dreaming that I had died
and gone below and bad struck the
hottest place that locality had to
offer.
I rolled iover in torment, and
squirmed, and had (really a devil
of a time but at last I came to mv
senses enough to get up and see
what was the matter.
Then 1 discovered that all my
windows bad been closed a fire
made iujthe big stove in the room
and a foot thick of cover laid over
me.
“I was so weak I could Imrdly
stand when I first got out of that
actual hot-bed of Satan, but a few
minutest at the window, which I
opened, refreshed me very much,
and as soon as 1 could I got down
to the office.
“There IJfound a mild-mannered
chap, and I am ready to bet he
never had such a tongue-lashing as
I gave him before he had a chance
to either apologize or fight. ~
“I knew' he would’t fight, and af
ter awhile he began to explain.
The first thing he said was to the
effect that I ordered the fire and
extra cover and I went at him
worse than ever.
“No doubt I would have sailed in
and kicked him through a sky
light, but my racket raised the
proprietor, a very nice fellow, and
he came out to see what the mat
ter was.
“Well, it took him a long time
to get it straight, but it seems that
the wire from the telephone in my
room—the hotel was new and had
all the latest wrinkles—had some,
how got mixed up with a wire that
led up to the other hotel up on
the mountain above the snow line,
and that a guest up there in try
ing to telephone to his hotel chap
that he was freezing to death and
wanted fire and cover, and the
whole business got onto my wire
and my hotel chap had got the
message as he thought, from me,
and thinking Americans were semi
savage, anyhow, forthwith sent a
servant up to my room, hot as it
was, with instructions to heat
things up and give me plenty of
cover, and by no means to disturb
me, or I'd kill somebody.
“Just what took place I don't
know; all 1 know is that 1 didn’t
get over the effects of it for a
month, e and now I muzzle any tel
ephone I catch in my room, I don’t
care where it leads to.”
BROKE THEIR RECORD
How Congressman Allen Secured
One Appointment.
Like other men of wealth and
influence, Congressman Allen of
Mississippi lias poor relations. But
unlike most men of wealth and in
fluence, he does not turn them
down.
One of them wanted to get an
appointment and appeal to Mr. Al
len to secure it for him. Inasmuch
as he had been uniformly success
ful in having his indorsements
gnored, he concluded it would do
no harm to say a good word so
iiis worthy and eminently respect
able relative.
Going to the \\ hite House one
day last week, he shook hands with
Mr. Cleveland.
“Mr. President,” he said 4 “you
have never appointed anybody I’ve
asked you to appoint and I have
never asked yau to appoint a re
lative of mine. Now, let’s both
break the record.” “All right
John, said the president, laugh
ing. ‘l’ll make the appointment. ’

And. too, hive times of sorrow—

The trees that bow before the gale—

And they are strong who understand
The happy art of yielding,
Oh river, that laughs all night, all day,
With voice of sweet seduction,
Teach us the art of laughing more
At every new obstruction.
For every life has eddies deep
And rapids fiercely dashing
Many times through gloomy caverns forced
Many times in sunligh flashing,
Yet there is wisdom in your ways,
Your laughing waves and rippies—
Teach us the gospel of your smiles,

That makes our landscape glad and fair
To glorify the giver.
Teach us to learn each lesson hid

True mystery which so perfects

For God is good and life is sweet,
While the sun is brightly shining
To g ad the glooms aud thus rebuke,
Our follies of repining
Each night is followed by its day,
Each storm by fairer wea’ber,
While all the works of nature sing
Their song of joy together.
Then learn, sad heart theirsongs of hope,
Cease, soul, thy > ainful sorrow;
For though the clouds be dark today,
The sun will shine tomorrow.

The sin o. dark resentment

A BASKET OF CHIPS
There seems to be a kind of van
ity inherent in human nature that
is morbid ou the question of pos
session,
It is not a question of neces«ity
nor merit, but it is a kind of big
‘I” and little “u’’ business that
measures its self importance by
what other people have not.
The next most great thing to b»-
ing the proud possessor of some
thing that smacks of prestige our
selves is for some of our connec
tions to be,
Many a person has felt his or
her importance because his or her
kin laid claim to a piece of land,
a horse or cow, or any other thing
on down to a penny whistle.
Some men even feel like that
( hey are justly entitled to unusu
al consideration in a religious wav
because their wives sing in the
choir or teach in the Sunday
school.
Whatever may be their moral
status thev would have you believe
that they ar» just a little better
than those whose gcod wives sit in
the pew.
And many a woman has felt
her pathway was paved to glory
because that her husband was sal
aried by the church.
It is not that this vainglorious
feeling is altogether wrong ; indeed
the desire for praise is the great
drill master of society—it is a
kind of unconscious admission of
still higher things,
The honor of the man and the
virtue of the woman hang often in
the scale of what of the world will
say.
Neither is it most by weight;
vainglorious laudation is to honest
worth what the froth is to be wine
or the shadow' is to be the sub
stance.
This reaching out forever for
wbat lies beyond us rather than
looking upward and husband,
ing the resources that we have is
the great shoal whereon are wreck
ed so many human lives.
Seeing people so often practice
an almost heroic denial for the
sake of a momey >• display, or to
gratify some ped i whim—how
grand might ai»cov have been

Beautiful Letter Written to La

Dear Madami: —My was

the little flower nf purity, t.> wnge

I feel myself honored joining
your valiant rank-. an i feel fur
thermore that 1 am thus enabled
worthily to cen bra'" 'he fourteen
hundredth hihhv rsaty ot rhe co i
version of our hou.-e to th 4 Cuiiti
fian church oy the bap ism of our
. uceslor, the Emperor Cloderig.
by the hands of Saint Rehiger at
Rheims.
You have taken oie great step
that of overcoming the old, nar
row-minded idea that different
creeds should form an obstacle for
true hearts to make common cause.
Do «e not all strive fur a common
goal? Should we think little ol
each other because our efforts lake
a different form?
A few years ago I had occasion
to be present when His Majesty,
the young G j rmau Emperor held
prayer with his troops, and when
the thundering choir of a thousand
voices broke out in the old Lyra
Germanica, ‘‘Utieer Gott der ist ein
feste Burg,” I was ju«t as inti
raafely touched, felt just as able
to follow the Divine injunction of
our mass. “Sursiim corda,’’ as when
the artistic music s unds under
the vaults of our great cathedrals,
the enceuse aeC-uds, the gold gems
of the sacred vessels sparkle at the
altar, when He Himself, the Holy
One. decemls to be incarnated in
the blessed sacrament, to be among
those “who are gathered in His
name.” Why should not all reel iu
the same way?
I have not heard of Mrs. Butler's
work at Roma. We have been
greatly retired of late,my husband,
calvary officer, had a fall with his
horse, needed great care and quiet
ness to recover, and the public or
gans here are not ready to appre
ciate or speak, at least, f volubly,
of the questions o, the day that
womanhood initiated, and I fear
the laidy will have infinite difficul
ties to ovircotn*, not the least to
be found m the subtleness of the
language and its varied dialects
Roma is not like other grea
capitals, the heart causing the pul
sation of,the life- artery that runs
through the nation; our union is
only nominal to a certain extent,
not in all cases felt by the nation.
Milan is considered “the moral
capital,” and is perhaps a point of
more vital interest than Roma it
self.
Torina forms its own exclusive,
proud and egoistic Pieda nyjntete
centre; Firenza cannot forget hav
ing been dothronized and kee|>e up
its pretense and j<‘al<>nsios.
We Venetols look with contempt
upon the haughty Roman princes
whose ancestors were ragged shep
herds in the Roman campagna,
waiting for some poor frate of the
family to be made Pope, then to
enrich the tribe by unjust spoil
from Holy Church, when our an
cestors were ruling doges and our
names written already for centuries
in the golden book.
Napoli, with its old, poor, de
cayed aristocracy ever in strife with
the young, rich and vulgar, created
by “Don Frnnceschello,” repre
sents the most incredible contra
diction between the luxury and
superficial elegance in public and
the filthiness and semi-barbaric
ignorance behind the scenes.
Italy is full of contending ele*
mento which must all be studied and
treated separately,—full of different
types of diveise races according to
the descendence from the varied na
tions thut populated Italy.
The continued and sud contest
’twixt state and church, forms
other obstacle for hearts to I)Dite
themaelv, 8 iu one great important
huim.ii cause. All this ha« to be ovei
come. 1 am hopeful of the result •
sH>l. the difficulties are there; C er
tainly. the influence must come from
the outside; we in our own self are
i<k> weak to rise out of our deplora
ble state,— and it is deplorable, God
help us!
Cuul4 you send me some of y our
papers that I may get perfectly in
to y our “spirit of action” and alsc
write in it. I should try a.pti-j t 0
write articles, though doubtful o f t} le
result.
I write under a non da p u ne, anl
have not aa yet courage to dare my
self outi-ide this shelter. I have
gathered home more feeling that I
helung to your great sisterhood, but
scarcely enough as yet to associate
my personality with my pen i u p u i),
lie.
ll' I present myself for work f or
next years success how should I
style myself in relation to the pu
rity work of the World’s Woman’s
Christian Temperance Union?—
“act ing member” or have you any
other form?
And then woula it not be
to prepare the way for what is to
come, i. e., to introduce the matter
before Her Majesty, our most gra
cious queen, seeing her this sum
mer while at Stiesa? I am perfectly
sure she wiii be favorably dispos-,
ed, aud once gained, the motto of
Casa Savoya is “Semper Avanti!
Savoya! while His Majesty,King
Humbert, is very inclined to take
advice from our b-loved aud gift
ed queen,
I could also go to Milan during
the summer months in order to
prepare the new a rchbishop,Cardi
nal to bring his influence
to bear upon our case at the Vati
ca i* where he is very well ,een
both by His H diness, himself.as
well us by the Sacred College,not

kuowhim;he will be apt to be a
great and active supporter of our
cause.
