IIi'.-somi, Minister. It wait the day after the panic. Tho turmoil nnd bluster of the "Btrcot," which had swept before It in havoc tho fortunes of many substan tial firms, had nlso taken down with it that of John Hnmblcton & Co. Hut the "street" itself, which tho day before hnd been one mnd pandemonium, had ngaln quieted down to its usual seren ity, except tho crowds nround the curbs who still tr.lked over the llnari rial exeltemcnl. Hut so It nlwnys Is In this district of New York. Men may ro down nt one fell stroke, specu lators may lose nil they have in tlu world but tlio ihnrkptx ko on tho Fame tho persistent ticker marks off more encouraging quotations, and tho financier forgetting the ruin of those around him, strives to recoup his own. John Humble ton sat In his private ofllce. On tlio morrow tho firm would go through the preliminaries of assign ment. He could pay off a part of the Indebtedness dollar for dollar, but after this hlB slate would be wiped clean of n cent. At 50 he was worse than when he hnd begun a pauper, though mi honest nnd discouraged man. Ho touched an electric button. A slight, dnrk-lialred, gray-eyed girl came in with pencil and pad. Shu was more than beautiful, for there was sympathy nnd Intelligence In the young face. Shu had been with the firm but three weeks, but sho had given satisfaction from the start. Her dignity nnd gentleness had given a soothing effect" to tlio strenuous brok erage ofllce without John Hnmblcton knowing wl.y. "No, Miss Jarrett, you need take no more notes," he told her, when Bhe had sat down. "I regret to say I am discharging you." He held up his hnnd when she started to speak. "Don't make it worse," he went on; "I am ruined and done." "Hut, Mr. Hambleton " Ho raised a silencing hand. "Here is two weeks' salary In advance till you can secure another place, and I wish It could be more. You will find a couple of firms on this slip to whom I have recommended you. I am going out on n business errand for an hour. You may leave now." She wondered at his words, but Bomo silent warning in his handsome face forbado her answer. She softly closed tho door and went out. As she gathered up a few belongings sho heard the senior partner go on his er rand. And when she loft sho passed through his privato ofllce again, with eyes filled with tears, and laid a little note upon his desk. An hour later John Hambleton camo In. Though he had sacrificed tho last cent of his private fortune of over a million dollars, there were still some who called him a thief and a man with out a friend left. "A man without a frlond." Worse than a man without a country! He opened a small drawer of his desk and took out something. The rjollshed steel eliBtened against the rich mahogany of his desk as his hand closed over it. 'Twao perhaps coward ly. Dut he was tired alone and des perate. Once he looked out the window. Below, rising from the itreet, ho could hear the ahouts of the curb brokers, and, further away, the Indistinct mum ble coming from the stock exchange. He smiled. Ho would norer hear that again, and ho gripped the steel thing closely. At that moment, almost brushed aside, his eyes fell on Alice Jarrett' note. Slowlv he onencd It. There were lust a few words, but out fell two vio lets, the kind that grew in his mother's days on tho farm, with tho delicate odor of spring. A flood of emotion overcame him. His eyes fell to the note. "I nm leaving, but here Is my ad dress. My heart Is with you in your trouble. If you need me only send for me Your friend. A. J." His friend! Of all tho friends he knew thlB gentle girl alone had left tho gentler mossago Just In time. With the two violets pressed to his lips, John Hambleton'B head went over on his desk, and ho wept for tho first timo in many years. Slowly tho little steel article was put back In Us drawer.

When Mr. Crab ireo's answer was submitted it made the l.uddeii charges look as small as the Ludden grub of public funds. The democrat if banquet at Heaver City on Monday of lust week was another big success in the series of Miccessful democratic gatherings. The Heaver City meeting, while only u neighborhood utVair, was as largely at louden us the "stiuid-pat" republican banquet at Omaha last week, and the Omaha aldiir was touted as being a state wido affair and a great deal of persistent drumming up was done to secute even the small crowd that at tended. Careful students of contem poraneous politics will not be slow to take note of tho difference between the condition of the republican party in town under the leadership of pro gressives, and the condition of Ne braska republicans under the lender ship of "standpatters" ami dodgers.

Brian is it "standpatter" of the deepest dye. He stands pat for tho tariff law, for Aldrich, for Cannon, and for the administration program iu lulu. He plays pudiius in everything he does, being willing to sacrifice everything on the alter of party. Mr. Brian 1b going to have a hard row to hoc in the Third district, for a major ity of the republican organs in that district tire distinctly progressive, if he gets the nomination it will be by a scratch, and his nomination will be held with delight by tho democrats of the district.

Frels has decided not to get into the race for tho republican gubernatorial nomination. Upon tlio bamo wiud mill is borne the rumor that ex-Governor Sheldon is deliberating with his usual slowness upon getting iuto the race agaiu. In the meantime Aldrich is iudustrioubly pushing his own candidacy. Pressure is being brought to bear upon W. E. Andrews to get into the race. The Andrews candidacy will be "nuts" for the newspaper paragraphers. He will be bailed as the "I'eruna candi date" in every quarter of the stato. 4 The I'eruna Company could well af ford to pay AudniWB campaign ex penses in rctvrm for the advertising it would get if It likes that kiud of ad vertising," remarked u well known politician tho other day.

The divorce evil has arisen to start ling proportions iu this country, and students of sociology are studying tho question. It is interesting to note the advanced ground taken on tho divorce question by tho democratic legislature of 1000. That session so amended the divorce law as to require a bona fide residence of one your immediately prior to tho filing of the petition, if the divorce is asked for on eause aris ing out of the statu, either tho petit ioner ur the defendant shall have been a bona lido lesidont for two years prim to the filing of the petition, A decree of divorce shall not become final until tlio expiration of six mouths. This latter provision put a slop to the habit of j?ott iug a divorce one day and t hen hiking over to Council HI nil's the next day and marrying again, thus avoid ing tlio inhibition of six mouths. The actual divorce is not in effect un til six months have elapsed siuco trial and decision.
