The result has been the frequent break ing of forks and frames, as well as of lesser parts of the wheel, with a num ber of fatal casualties following. The proposition Is made In a Buffalo paper that a Government Inspection of bicy cle factories should be established to remedy the evil. But If a plate bear ing the name, address and guarantee of the actual manufacturer were re quired on each wheel It would proba bly answer the purpose and save the community the cost of maintaining an other set of officials. Probably most of the breakages occur In wheels sold In Job lots to retailers and labeled with fictitious names the manufacturers thus "dodging the responsibility.' The colonial growth of the leading powers of Europe within the last half century has been something marvelous, when It Is considered upon the bssie of square miles. It Is a good deal of a question with many whether we ought to add to our possessions Hawaii, the Philippines, Cuba and Puerto Rico, which embrace an aggregate of about 247,750 square miles, sn area consid erably less than that of the State of Texas. As compared with the absorp tion of colonies by the great powers of Europe such an acquisition by the Uni ted States seems Insignificant. The United Kingdom has an area of about 121,000 square miles, while It has col onies covering 16,662,073 square miles. France has an area of 204.092 square miles, but colonies covering 2,505,000 square miles. The German empire em braces 208,830 square miles In Europe, but abroad she has 1.615,577. Spain has on the peninsula 107.670 square miles, but on other continents she bad, before the war, 405,458 square miles, and If ahe loses what the United States has seized she will still have 244,302 (iquare miles of colonial possessions. In pop ulation these seizures would add about 12,000,000 to our present 75.000,000 In habitant, which would make our total about 87,000,000. But Great Britain and her colonies new have 361,825,000 people, France 82,810,000, and Ger many 60,500,000. There is, of course, no argument In an this that we ought to embark In the business of acquiring colonial possessions, but It shows how very little we should add to our borders or population In comparison with what other nations have done, and yet they are, even now, so far from .being satis fled that some of them are hanging about our tracks like vultures In the hope that out of the contest between the United Statea and Spain they may gobble up some Insignificant Island. The unprecedented commercial pros perity of the United States for the fiscal year 1808 and the tremendoua balance of trade in our favor have been the subjects of extended comment That our trade balance, which this year amounts te $615,259,025, would break all previous records was Indicated by advance sheets sent out by the bureau of statistics a Washington some time ago. It was necessary, however, to get complete returns for instituting com parisons In order to fullv measure th wonderful commercial advauce of the United States in one year. To say that for the first time 1d the history of the country our exports are twice as great as our Imports does not tell all the story. A comparison of the total ex ports of 1898. which were 9l,Zn,?Al, 868, with the exports of 1888 shows an Increase of 100 per cent In one de cade. It Is also Interesting to note the directions In which this export trade has been extended. It will be found that our Increase of sales has been most marked In those countries which purchased but little of our products a few years ago. A comparison of our sales to foreljrn nations for the years 1888 and 1808 makes the following re markable showing: 1888. 1808. Africa $3,000,000 $17.0U0.000 Japan 4,000.000 21,000.000 China 4.500.000 10.000,000 Ans-Hangary 500.000 6.000,000 Belgium 10,000,000 47,000,000 Denmark .... 8.000,000 12,000.000 Netherlands.. 16,000.000 65,000,000 France 40,000.000 100.000,000 Germany 66,500,000 150,000,000 British North America ... 88,000.000 85.0rXj.0UU Un't'd K'gdom 862,000,000 640,000,000 It w4U be seen from this table that our greatest percentage or Increase la trade during the decade waa with Japan and Africa, countries which ten years ago traded almost entire! t with Great Britain.

A great longing for the rest and comfort of his lodgings came over him, and braced his tired muscles Into ac tivity again, as he turned down the dingy street in which he lived. There was only one redeeming feature In Worship lane, and that was No. 27, and before its gate Guruey stood with admiring eyes. Bright green paint shone on door and railing a row of sickly flowers struggled to show their bloom In a box on the front window, and neat window curtains bid the room within. "It do look wonderful smart but not half smart enough for her," he mut tered as he pushed open the gate and opened the door. Carefully wiping bis boots on the tiny mat be went straight to the kitchen. "Where's Dick?" said a voice from the scullery beyond. "He's got some errands he'll be back In a bit" be answered, as be sat In an arm chair before the fire and gaz-d approvingly around. Bright oleographs were neatly fastened to the paper; the wooden chairs and table were spotless ly clenn and the grate was as bright as labor could make It "Well, Peter, how do you like my pictures?" said a pleasant voice; and Mrs. Dart drying her bands, came Into the kitchen. Her trim, neat figure, her refined accent and her sweet pale face, all proclaimed her foreign descent, and, together with ber tidy bouse and smart dress, brought down upon ber the scorn and hatred of her nelghltors. The big man looked at her with a wistful look, which she seemed to find embarrassing, for she began getting ready the supper. "Lass," be said, turning his back to her and leaning over the fire, "I'll not be saying as how I haven't been well cared for here, or that my lodge ain't comfortable, but I'm going to find an other, lass. If I can." The girl's face grew paler yet and her eyes contracted and dilated In her agitation. "Going to leave us. Peter? When we've leen such good friends. Why, what have Dick or I done that you should go away?" A little catch In her voice and the tremble of ber chin warned him that tears were near at hand, and he sprang up and turned toward her. "Ah, lass, you don't understand. Can't you see I musn't stop here no longer?" "I've offended yon, Peter," she said, wilfully, not seeing his meaning. "No, lass, you ain't offended me, nor couldn't If you tried; but It's well I must tell It. The first day I come here I loved you, lass, and as It was, so It Is, snd I can't stay here; don't you see I can't?" Hia voice rose and trembled with passion. "Ah, lass, you can't tell how I've longed for you, how I've hun gered for you, night and day. Tour "OOtSO TO LRAVB US, PKTBB 1" face comes In front of my work your face Is with me always for I love you." Maddened by bis grief, be threw his scruples to the winds, and strained her to his breast with a force that fright ened her; abe tore herself away and stood panting in front of blm. A heavy footstep sounded on the flagstones out side, and a loud, cheery voice called out "Is Peter In, Missis?" The pair stood looking at each other, and, with a heartbroken sigh, Gurnsy turned away and went silently to hla room. At half-past 8 the two men left the bouse for tbelr day's work In gloomy silence. A fierce hatred for bis chum, nursed by the evil thought of a sleep less nlgbt filled Peter's mind, leaving no time for Idle .talk. Come what might he bad resolved In some way to thrust his chum out of the way. "Sup pose be tripped when carrying a bucket of molten Iron V whispered tba tempter; "It wouldn't be your fault Supposing yon pushed blm Into the pit of molten steel, wbo would suspect you, bis cbumT With tbeae thoughts racing through bis mind. Peter began the afternoon' work of shell casting. Groups of men, each carrying a long Iron pole sbestbed at the end with wood, approached ft large furnact; a nolo was knocked In tba rod, and a smsll stream of moltra blaming steel flowed oat, sending show an U tpartu la tba air. Wlta a loaf U(fi ttltf S f 6- 'M mtltKtUtmHffWf(M book the foreman pushed Iron buckets under the flowing rivulet of metal; each one, when filled, was slung by Its carriers on the pole, and was borne shoulder-high to the shell molds and i there emptied. Peter and Dick started at length with their load, with the lat- ter In front and once more murderous thoughts filled the former's mind. A I trip on his part would send the molten j metal streaming over his chum's back, ! and anothet accident would be added to the long list and the girl be wor shiped would be free. Little did Dick Dart suspect how many times that afternoon Azrael with bis Ranijng .sword stood over against him, or how many times the wretched man behind him drew back from his ghastly task. At length the shells were all cast, and Peter, with what strength of mind be had, thanked God that bis trial was over, but as the men were leaving the foreman said to the two friends: "I wish you two would stop for a bit be side the casting pit In the other shop. We were late running the metal In, and IH TO THB TAWTifO DSATH BELOW HIM. It must be raked for at least an bour before It settles." "All right sir," said Dick, cheerily. "Peter and I will stay, never fear."

" With Tong iron rakes they cleared the molten sea of scum that dimmed its glowing surface, and watched the blue flames that flick ered from time to time on It Although the sweat was running down him, Peter felt sn Icy coldness creep over j him as he drew nearer to Dart who stood looking keenly at the liquid mass before him. He rained bis rake to thrust him headlong to an awful death. but he was unable to move, for there I stood plainly, between bim and bis vlc ! tini. the shadowy form of Dick's wife, J with hands uplifted. Jle flung down his rake with a curse and came and stood close to his friend, who was stretched out over the pit gathering the fresh rising scum. Wh"thtr the fumes overcame him, Dick Dart will never know, for he felt himself falling for ward and uttered a sharp cry. In stantly Peter flung out bis left arm and with a mighty effort hurled the fall ing man back, but lost bis own balance as he did so and fell with an awful cry Into the yawning death below blm. nis scream of mortal agony rang through the building as be lay for an Instant on the liquid Are. Then the flames burst out around him and In a few seconds not a trace of Peter Gur ney remained. Gone to an awful death, It Is true, but with the fresh glory of a bero'a crown upon blm and who shall Judge him? Heine to Goethe. On occasion of the recent gathering In the Goethe society at Weimar, tbe Frankfort Zeltung published what Is said was a letter of Heine's to Goethe never before printed.

My rbymeleta, I know, have but small worth as yet Only here and there will you And a passage to make you see what I shall be capable of one day. For a long time I have not been able to aattefy myself as to tba true nature of poetry. People told me: 'Ask SchlegeL' Scblegel told me: 'Read Goethe.' I have read blm, and.
