Marjorlo and I had wnmiured
To the lawn to look up nt n star.
At least Marjorlo gazed at the stnr ,
And wondurod Just what It might bo.

Thu brightest of all stars to mo.
Then speaks the radiant beauty ,
With dreamy eyes llxed afar
1 wonder , Jnek , nro there people
At all llko us on that start
Are there girls who have waited n season ,
With a dear , cluinsv follow near ,
Just dying to nave him "say something , "
And hu Just stupid with fcarl
And then , however it happened
1 never could clc.irly tell ,
ISut certain It is 1 " .said something , "
And Into my nrms there fell-
Not n star from the heaven above me ,
Hut Marjniie , gem without Haw ,
As she whispers. "Do you know , Jaclc ,
J really don't euro n straw
For the very Impossible people
Who would live away olt in a stnr. "
The season of summer traveling , so near
nt hand , will give n now impetus to tlio spoon
fad. So great has been the demand the past
season for souvenir spoons that all the larger
cities of the United States , as well as every
city and town in Ruropo , with but few ex
ecutions , manufacture n spoon characteristic
of the place or of some object of peculiar in
terest to the people of that place.
Whllo in many places the spoons are found
in tea sl/cs only , n number of the moro ox-
teiislvo shops furnish them in orange , sugar ,
coffee and ten sizes. The souvenir spoon of
thu District of Columbia comprises several
designs. The George Washington has ix
medallion of the father of the country
stamped in the bowl or on the top of the han
dle , the remainder of the spoon being per
fectly plain. The Martha Washington is
identical. The likenesses in both coses nro
said to bo exact , nnd It is the favorite spoon
with ncarlv all collectors.
The white house spoon 1ms n representa
tion of the white house at the top of the han
dle. The details of the building nro faith
fully reproduced , the shrubbery and foun
tain being accurately depleted. Helpw the
picture in small letters nro the words "Presi
dent's House , " nnd nrrangou perpendicularly
down the remainder of the handle nro tbo
letters of the city. The front of thu handle
is oxidized , whllo the remainder is bright
finished. Ml. Vernon spoon is simi
lar , except that the picture is the
'lomo ' in which Washington died.
Another Washington spoon has n hnndlo
formed In mininturo of thn national monument
ment to George Washington , twined from
top ' to bottom with n vine of laurel. Within
th'o bowl Is a view of the dome and front of
the cupitol.
The Philadelphia spoon has a handle
formed of the letters of the city , slanting
backward nnd resting on a narrow ribbon of
silver.
The Huffnlo spoon throws in relief Niagara
Valla , tlio rapids flowing down the stem ,
which bears in light relief the name "Niag
ara. "
The Lynn , Mass. , spoon has n figure of
Moll Pitcher , of whom the poet Whlttler
wrote , nt thu top of the handle .
The Salem , Mass. , spoon has a figure of a
witch on the handle nnd three broomsticks
crossed on the shaft , making n very prottv
trophy.
The Omaha spoon has only appeared in one
style ns jet , Imvlnc engraved on the handle
n picture of TIIK HEK building , but a number
of Jewelers nro planning surprises for the
fall trade.
The Chicago spoon is shown in n va
riety of pretty designs. Thov nre or
namented with the world's fair buildings
nnd now nml then you run across one with n
vjow of Lake Michigan on It.
ntional spoon" , which refer to America
not to any ono city in particular , are
especially doilgnod for foielgn visltois.
Among them nro the Washington , Lincoln ,
Grant , Sherman , etc. A likeness of the
character is stamped toward the top of the
handle. Under the 10a
bust of Washington Is a
sword nml licit , denoting his willingness to
light ; under that of Lincoln are two broken
shackles , denoting the emancipation of the
slaves , nnd under that of Grant , a sword aim
spray of waves crossed , denoting greatness
in war und pence. In the center of tbo han
dle , depleted on a double-furled ribbon , nro ,
respectively Father of Ills Country , Savior
of His Country nnd Defender of Ills Coun
try. Under that ot Sherman the American
Hag is twined around the remainder of the
tianulo. Among the romantic subjects prefer )
ence is shown for the Kvnngelino bearing
n nlcturo of Longfellow's heroine in relief nt
the tbp of the hnndlo , nnd lor the Priscllln ,
which pictures on the hnndlo the Puritan
maid entering the house of prayer , upon hove
door of which is the legend : "Lord , have
mercy on us , " The remainder of thn handle
is fanned of twigs nnd reeds , twined about
with n furling ribbon , bearing tbo name " ,
, > v I'riscilln.
1 ho spoon pf Kncland hears on its handle
n full-blown rose ; that of Scotland the this
tle ; that of Holland n windmill. Of the Indi
vidual cities the Munich spoon .shows the pic
ture of a Munich child ; that uf Amsterdam n
weo. .sailboat. Nuremberg the goose man !
fountain. This fountain is in the form of ' a
llttlo man on his way to market with a goose
tinder each arm. From the beaks of the
fowls issue the streams of water. The Flor
ence spoon shows n Illy oil tlm handle and in-
other on the bowl , nnd the Milan spoon the
noted cathedral. Thu
most luterostlng spoon
to visitors abroad Is Iho Obonumnorgnu. It
roprcduci's the statue that King Luuwig of
Ilnvurla gave to the village for the pleasure
ho had experienced In
seeing the Passion
pluv Ion years ago. This stature shows the
Christ from the cross fondlv giving his moth
er In charge of his best beloved disciple . ,
* 3uhn. On another part of the spoon appears
n picture of the Amuiorgau theater.
Already the hnutb"inondo is preparing to
mlgtato lor the sunynur outing. Mnny nouses
show signs of closing nnd society is seeming
ly on thu move.
Them wilt bo moro Omaha people on the
continent this year than over before , a num
ber of departures already being chronicled ,
while others nro waiting for Juno skies be
fore " venturing into the realms of mal do mar.
"So they sailed away for a night and n day
In KoRont street nnd the lion Mnrcho. " That
is seemingly about nil the tlmo it takes these
clays for a run across the pond ami London
nnd Paris shops nro the only guide books
used. H Is really wonderful'what
chniiRes ;
liavo boon made in the last
ten years in ocenn
travel. Ten nnd lift eon da -
> s was considered
n romarlcably quick voyage , and nervous
women were heard declaring that it was too
fast , very much too
fast ami honed laws
would bo passed prohibiting Monmshlps from
miiKing such time. oma
' Hut Instead of tbolnus
the nii'ors" nro now landing their
passon-
Rers in seven days and occasionally cut that
tlmo down. So It is roallv nothing to go to
' ' -"gland these days , it you desire to go. And
nhoit of men and women , resident in Omaha
will mnkn tbo trip this year -Just to see what
it's ll.ko. "

Hpi'clmeii of I IIIHH AVork.
The parlors of the Sacred Heart academy
were last Alonday night the scene of the
most Interesting nnd most brilliant exercise
that has marked the progress of the scholas
tic year. The programme , though tastefully
indicative of the choice and range ot the
topics selected , is wholly Inadequate to sup
ply nn idea of the mode of intellectual treat
ment nnd of verbal delivery. No papers or
notes were used cultivated momorlesstored ,
It would seem , with nn endless supply of to
llable facts , original reflections and vivid
pictures , poured forth those treasures with
cosy elocution nnd in language nt once nat
ural and pollsheJ.
Twenty-two young ladles , members of the
largo class of "in , traced this picturesque
"Swallows' Flight over Knglnnd , Franco and
Itnly. " The musical numbers , nil furnished
by the same class , were rendered with grace
and spirit.
Rt. Rev. Bishop Scnnnull of Omaha pre
sided , accompanied by his guest , Rt. Ruv.
nishopBonacutnof Lincolnespecially invited
for thu occasion , and his secretary , Rev. A.
Colonerl. These gentlemen expressed their
satHfacllon in two brief but very apprecia
tive addresses , which closed nn evening
where geography , history , literature nnd
statistics had found appropriate places and
lent varied charms.
Where every participant acquitted herself
so admirably it is diflicult to select any for
distinction.

The Collt'K1' ' ' Fl" ArtH.
With the opening of the College of Fine
Arts , to talto place tomorrow in the rooms of
the soclQtv in TUB HUB building , art In
' Omnhn will undoubtedly receive now life.
Looked nt from the most roseate standpoint
possible , art in the metropolis of Nebraska
has not kept pace with tbo growth of the
city or state. 'Jfho comparatively few lovers
of the artistic have found that art is really raa
"plant of \ cry slow growth , " and thov have
despaired innuy times at the little attention
paid to those things which truthfully repre
sent the higher ideals of life. ors
While there nio n number of connoisseurs
of good pictures In the city , it has been their
misfortune to allow the good canvns.es tote
leave the city because of tholr inability to
purchase them , and thn work
ot sustaining the reputation of
Omaha as n coming centra cf
nrt has devolved upon n few wealthy men ,
notably among the number bcinR Hon. Georco
W. LlnluRcr , to whom thu nrt life of Omaha
owes a ver > great deal. Hon. James AI. ,
Woolworth , Air. J. N. H. Patrick. Air. W. ,1.V. .
Aiorse , Mr. A. J. Poppleton , Air.V. . London ,
have nlso ln'un purctuscrs of good works by
representative painters ; but , taken as yn ya
whole , the citizens of Omaha who have been
in a position to add to the local world of art ,
have hail "other lUh to fry , " to use a homely
yet very expressive pnrnso. They va
felt , | iresumabythut ! their business ts
would not permit thU extravagance , this evl- ,
donco may Ixjof illllltantoUm , nnd per consequence
quence they have kept aloof from the "art ,
craze , " us ono woll-ltnowu gentleman ex
pressed it.
With the opening of tlio school , however , ft
gradual cbzuRO may bu expculcd , for an
academy , such n this will utm to be , cannot
help but hnvo nn Influence for great good in
the community.
The gentleman who will have charge of the
academy is Air. J. Laurie Wallace , president
of the Chicago Society of Artist * , nnd one of
the best known painters of the Garden City.
Tno now director Is a young man , yet
his work is of such a character
as to warrant forgiveness from the public
that ho is young. By voung Is meant that ho
is still on this side of thirty-live , nnd has Iho
best years , the most bencllciul years , still be
fore him , Devoid of nil mannerism , simplic
ity Itself , yet he has about him the nlr of the
artist , the distinguishing badge of the follow
er of pallotto nnd brush. There is something ,
too , Intensely romantic about him which
would command attention anywhere. His
hair Is dark and lustrous , and curls in that
dreamy manner peculiar to the Sicilian. His
beard Is worn very much na Boulnngor wears
his , and his eyes are lighted up now and then ,
ution nrt matters nro on the tapis , with the
divine spark , or something very much akin to
it.
With Millet nnd Couture , ho thinks art
schools nro only for the fundamen
tal principles ; that their edicts nro
conlllctlnc , often misleading to the
young artist who must often work out his
own salvation. Ho looks upon Alolssonler ns
the greatest technician of thnngo and echoes
the truisms of a popular critic who says ! "If
our artist stammer over his alphabet how
shall ho toll us of the great truths and beau-
tics or reveal to us the powerof imagination. "
In his mind the technical side of art is its
alnha.
llut this Is not to bo wondered nt for Air.
Wallace comes from the greatest technical
school in the country , the Philadelphia Acad
emy of Fine arts , which for vears , has en
joyed the honor of having tor its head Liber
ty Tadd , ono of tlio best known instructors In
the country. All that Air. Wallnco sho.vs
in his talk rcllocts the thoroughness , the
careful recognition of underlying principles.
which , as a rule , distinguish those edu <
cated In that school. When the new director
of the Omaha academy loft his alma inatcrho
was n member of the llfo class , n dis
tinguished honor , indeed , for they are but
few who attain to this exalted place In the
nrt life of the ( Junker city.
The presence of such a man cannot help
but bo beneficial and his work nt the head of
the academy of line arts ought to greatly ad
vance the cause of art In Omaha.

Tlio ICvnlutloiiH of the "White
rim" lllitl '
Wnkoliiy'H Description
of n Klnrhlii Sunset A Imml
of I'crnultinl Summer.
In making n visit to Florida , n trip to Port
Tampa should not bo missed. This place ,
the principal point of arrival nnd
departure for steamers plying be
tween , this country and Cuba , lies
far down the west coast of Florida upon the
Gulf of Mexico , and Its .situation Is nt once
most picturesque and peculiar. The port , so
called , is a small city lying out In Tampa
bay , about n mile from .shore , end is
reactied by n railroad built entirely
upon trestle work this owing to the fact
that the water In ttie bay is comparatively
shallow , and to afford vessels an opportunity
to load and unload their cargoes. Hotels ,
stores , freight houses , wharves , etc. , all
stand upon piling , connected by board wallts ,
anil the place needs only HOIIIO gondolas nnd a
few bannnn stands to make It a second edi
tion of Venice. A largo hotel hero called
"Tho Inn" is of the llrst class In accommoda
tions nnd survlco ns well as prices. You
have salt air In unlimited quantities \\hlle
hero , and are salted when you leave. At
night you are lulled to sleep by the soft sob
bing of the sea and the music of the wnvos ,
while the murmurlngs of the waters sound
for you a pleasant reveille nt morn.
In these waters is found nnd caught the
celebrated tarponcalled thosllvorklng.owing
to the silvery like coating of its scales , and to
catch and land ono Is llko shooting n tiger
in India or killing n grizzly bear In the Rocky
mountains the event of a llfo timo. The
lish is from llvo to six feet in length , weighs
from ono hundred to ono hundred and fifty
pounds , and is ns full of activity as u dyna
mite cartridge. The proper method of pro
cedure in catching him Is to hire n boatman
to row you down the shore n few miles ,
throw out your line baited with a mullet ,
take your novel which you have brought with
you , sit down , read and wait. There need bo
no hurry or undue hosto In thu matter ; n
"dignified silence , " ns Air. Quay not long
since remarked , is the proper thing under the
circumstances. The first day you may got no
introduction to the tarpon , or the second.
Tlio third day , possibly , whllo In the midst of
tin exciting passage In your novel vou become -
come conscious ot n sudden tightening of
your line , a hundred feet from your boat you
see n stir in the water , and you know that
your tarpon Is hooked. Your book is dropped ,
the line grasped , and the play is on. The
curtain goes up with n rush , and thcio
immediately follows u ono act drama
without n parallel for realism ; the
sea tlio stage , tlio sky the background , the
gulf breezes the orchestra , nnd the tarpon
the star actor. Hack and forth , up and
down , at times towing the boat behind him ,
and again throwing himself high in air , his
scales gloaming In the sunlight like burnished
silvertho struggles of the tarpon to free him
self from the hook , which ho has
not only taken but swallowed , uro
equalled only uy tlio eflorts of a
of n bucking broncho on the Colorado plains
to rid himself of nu.obnoxious rider nnd
saddle , liv judicious handling of the fish
you tire him out and guide him Into shallow
water , where your boatman gaffs him nnd
lands him panting in the bottom of the boat.
The silver king Is yours. You nro victor in
the grandest light ever made between man
nnd fish nnd are now ready to return homo
and narrate your nxpcricnco to admiring
listeners.
Not far from hero are the well known everglades -
glades of Florida , that mysterious , unsur-
voycd , unexplored region , into tbo farthest
recesses of which man never has penetrated
nnd never can. Occupying the louest part
of the peninsula of Florida , It is n terra in
cognita , n "darkest Africa , " n mighty
morass , a siculy swamp inhabited by nllltni-
tors , Indians and snake-and U said to be
also the refuge of criminals who in itsloatti-
some dooths nro ns safe and secure from pur
suit as If on another planet. In company
with u small party of adventurous tourists
not long since , wo chartered u little steam
launcli , ono of those toy affairs that floats
upon n heavy dew , and went some miles up n
narrow nameless stream that comes out ol the
ovorglndos and goes down to the
sea. Upon the very entrance to this
region Wcro seen many gigantic live oaks ,
festooned with moss nnd air plants , which
soon gave way-to n tangled mass of vegeta
tion characteristic of the tropical climate in
which wo were. Treed , vines , moss , shruu-
hery , flowers , all struggled for the mastery
and were bound together In ono inseparable
whole. Startled by the approach of our
launch , birds of brilliant plumage with wild
cries of fright ilownwa/ ; occasionally the
ugly bead of an alligator was seen above the
surface of the water , which grow blacker as
wo ascendednnd snakes innumerable crawled
up and down the banks of the stream. It
such a place , of hopeless wanderings through
the sunless recesses und impenetra
ble gloom of the forest , of the horrors
rors to bo met with in the dark , dismal ,
Stygian depths , of the nameless monsters
und slimy reptiles that inhabit the stagnant
pools ; and from the ngouy and misery of
existence in such a region madness were a re-
llof. At intervals n break in the leafy laby
rinth along tno banks of the stream enabled
us to look back some distance from the shore ,
nnd the fantastic forms which trtes , vines
nnd shrubbery assumed needed but llttlo
imagination to bo transformed into verdur
ous rooms and vestibules , .sylvan galleries
nnd boudoirs ; or , again , the vaulted trees
" mtmloki'd thu wrought oaken beams ,
I'lllats and frlu/.n , und hfcb fantastic root.
Of those dark places In limes aloof
I'ntbcUrals called. "
Our further progress up the stream was
finally barred by a fallen tree , and wo L'ladly
returned to civilization and the society ot

Lying upon the Gulf of Alexlco , wltn a
wide wnsto of waters stretching to the west ,
there Is scarcely an u\onlng that from tliU
place cannot bo soon n sunset the beauty of

"Amid those nun-Rronn meadows of the sky ,
On which the scarli't bars of sunset lie. "
I saw n sunset recently the memory of
which will remain with mo ns long iu life lin
gers. A broad , black bnso of clouds with a
border yellow and bright as ot molten gold ,
nnd us regular us if laid uy the hand of man ,
rested upon the wntor , from behind which
the sun throw long nrrows of light straight
up the heavens to where llttlo white , fleecy
clouds with edge of pink floated In a sky of
blue. Gradually , ns the sun went lower , tno
whole changed to red uml the sky became
suffused with a glow as though tno flames of
eternity weio raging there. Still lower
sank the sun ; the rod Urns of the dying
day wont out , and "loft the world to darkness

Clinton N. Powell has addressed a commu
nication to Chief Scavey commending the
action of O dicer C. W. King In arresting an
intoxicated Individual on Farnam .street tlio
other day. Says Air. Powell : "So often un
just charges nro made through the newspa
pers nnd otherwise , of brutality , unnecessary
violence , etc. , of members of our police force
in making nrrosts , whtlo the many Instances
of duty faithfully und wlsclv performed , even
in the face of considerable danger.are passed
unnoticed that I feel like saying n word in
commendation. "
Air. Powell continues to say that the case
was that of n largo , powerful fellow , who
fought savagely , and In hU opinion deserved
clubbing , but the ofllccr quietly dragged him
to tlio box nnd called tlie patrol wagon. "The
above is only ono Instance of many In which
the men under your chnrgo deserve credit.
1 believe the citizens of this city nro nlmost
universally proud ol the character nnd elll-
ciency of its police ofllcers. If you hoar and
read llttlo praise and much censure it only
proves that the many who would pralso are
silent , while those who wUh to censure take
the trouble to innko themselves heard. "
