The trials and tribulations of the TlaptUts of Council Hluffs are things of public knowl edge. Steps are now being taken by the First church looking toward a combination of interests which will put a stop to all the embarrassing notoriety which has attended the organization In the past. At a recent meeting a circular letter was drawn up and ordered sent to each member of the Temple Hapttst church , which with drew from the main body about a year ago In such a sensational man' nor , amid calls for the police and turning out of gas. The letter In olTccl conveyed to the members of the Temple church the desire of the others to forget old animosities , to let bv-gons bo by-gones , and to unite the two organl/atlons as they were before the great split took place. This was considered a reasonable proposition , In view of the hard feeling that had existed between the iwo organisations , and a copy was sent to each member of the Temple church with the expectation that the latter would meet them half way. A meeting of the Temple Itaptlst church was held a few da.ss 111:0 at which a reply to the proposition was drafted and sent to ' tin * niilcers'of the Kiist church. In it the members of the Temple church agreed to e'ome back , bat named i ertain conditions , ol .vhleli.the . iVlnclpal one u as that the present rgani/.tlion should be disbanded ami a now rganl/atIon effected , with new olllcers and 11 the old association * which had proved U DO s' > unpleasant dune awaj with as far as ; > ossille. member of the First rhmvh stated resterday that in all probability the offer ol ho Temple church would not bo accepted.

In a recent Isiuo of the San Franolsco Call was published an article from the Inter Ocean of Chicago entitled "Tho Decline of the Kiss , " and in this was the llrst verso of a poem , "You Kissed Me. " In a previous issue of the Inter Ocean appeared the following : "A number of inquiries have been sent to this oftlco asking the name of the author and where the poem , "You Kissed Me , " can be obtained. Keitherj qucHtlon can be satis factorily answered. It is not in "Thompson's Humbler Poets , ' nor any of the standard col lections so far as known. Unless the author comes to the front and owns up to the piece It will probably go on through the ages a literary waif as long as anybody retains a scrap book or a memory. The poem bobs up periodically , and as sarc as it does there Is a Hood of inquiry as to who wrote It. "You Kissed Me , " Is usually accompanied by the following foot note : "The above was written in 1M17 by a lady under 'JO years of age. James Hcdpath. the historian , thought so much of the poem that ho had an edition printed on white satin. John O. Whittler , the Quaker poet , wrote of it and its young author that she bad truly mastered the .ocrct . of ICnglish verso. " VOLT KISSKO ME. You klsipil me !

And tbe e are t bo questions 1 ask day andnlulil Must lips tuste no more Such exquisite delight } Would yeiucaie If your breast Were my shelter as then ? And If you were hero Would you kiss me again ? This poem , which John G. Whittler says shows that the young author had truly mas tered the secret of English verse , was written in the early 'Oils In Almond , N. Y. , iiy Miss Frona Coreywho was then under " ( . vearsof age. Misi Corey , previous to that time , hud contributed a number of excellent article's , both prose and verso , to the press , some of which appeared in the New Yorli Express. Ono day n gentleman who bad been a visitor at the homo of Miss Corey's parents took his departure and on bidding her good by inpriiiteel a kiss upon her lips. Some time after his departure Miss Corey recelvce a letter from this gentleman and in it he In closed an old poem entitled "I Kissci You. " While attending to some house hold duties the lady's mind ran upon the letter tor and the answer she would write when suddenly the words , "you kissed1 me , " wen 'iiiconsciously uttered. Without leaving hoi work she composed the succeeding lines o the poem , transferred them to paper and thn poem in the rough was completed. Subsequently quontly Miss Corey revised her lines am evnlvcel the exquisite verses given above These she sent as an answer to the letter re eelved , and the gentleman In 18'7 ' ! gave tin poem to a Woodstock. III. , paper for publica lion , but refused to dlscloso the name of tin author , saying only that it was written by i young lady under 'JO years of ago. It wai widely copied and commented upon , but hov It came to bo written or by whom has neve before been published. InilUn Mythology. A sirt of mythology has grown it ] about the American Indian in region whence ho vanished 100 years ago. Tin popular names of many plants inchul the adjective Indian. Few persons it America say Indian corn now , but In dian cakes is a term still strongly in trenched south of Mason and Dixon' line , and there is oven a plant known t children as Indian tobacco. The bril limit cumin , is called Indian shot bccaus its seeds are black , bullotliko pellet * Indian traditions are preserved with i sort of reverence in the south. Twenty live years ago local travelers on a certai : road in Worcester county , Maryland commonly stopped at a point in th remote country , reached under a bush a the roadside , drew forth a stone morta and pestle used by the Indians 100 year before , showed the relics to an , stranger in the company and carofull put them back. A whole noighborluioi know the wherouboutH of these instrt menus , but they seemed as bufo as in museum. Itelntcil Term * . Filibuster , freebooter and biiccanee are words curiously interrelated. Th French and the Knglish seu adventure ! once made a common cause again * Spanish settlements in the now work and all three of these words eamo i time to describe the rude son soldier who despoiled the Spanish main and th towns upon the coasts of the Spanis possessions. Filibuster is said to bo th result of an attempt to make a Frenc word of freebooter , and the English hoi rowed it back from the French beoaufc it sounded le.-s frankly brutal than th Knglish word. Buccaneer was orlg iially French in form , and it meant 11 first ono who hunted the boucan or wll cattle and hogs of the West Indies ; the ono who made jerked moat of the ! 'Josh , and , finally , bccuu&o this meat we used to provision the ships of the so rovers , a filibuster or freebooter.

The Herald correspondent In that city telegraphs that the engagement was fought near San Luis. General Terrcs led the government forces nnd General Tavarcz commanded the revolutionary army. Details of the battle have not yet been obtalned.owing to Imperfect telegraph service from the sec tion whore the engagement took place , bat It is 'reported that MM ) men were killed. These were divided nearly equal between the two armies. Victory Is claimed for each side , and the actual result of the light may not be known for several days. The Herald's correspondent in Huenos Ayrcs also telegraphs thnt the dis satisfaction with the government of Brazil Is extending to other sections than Hlo Grande do Sul. Brazilians who have 10- cently arrived in Buenos Ayrcs say there is great uneasiness in Permiinbiico and other states , and that revolutionary outbreaks may occur at any moment. .Miiy < ilvi < I'p HID Sli'se. It is believed ill Buenos Ayres that the revolutionists of Uio Grande do Sul will soon abandon the selgo of Uruguayana. The town is so well protected by gunboats that Us capture seems now to bo impossible. Troops sent down by the general govern ment and Castilhista forces have been sent to the frontier to reinforce the three regi ments stationed there by the Uuruguay gov ernment to guard the hitter's territory from raids by the Brazilian revolutionists. Small bodies of revolutionists have been disarmed near the frontier by Uruguay troops. The Herald's correspondent in Artigas telegraphs that troops belonging to the na tional guard of Brazil invaded Uruguay ter ritory at Carpenteris. They killed the chief of police and stole money , e-attlo and horses. The ofllcial In charge of the towii has asked the government at Montevideo for assist ance' . Pnlnt In I'liviip of the Ucliels. It is reported from a trustworthy source that Admiral Vandelkok , who commands foiu of the gunboats sent down from Hio do Janeiro , is in constant communication with Silvira Martins , the active leader of the revolution. It is cxpocteci that the cntito squadron will go over to' ' the revolutionists. Should this report be well founde.l , it won el materially ehaniro the situation so far as it concerns the prospects lor the success of the revolutionists. , lU-ciillH Itiilmlf : < Mlii'H Tluif.

In going Into a new house , a * so many people nro contemplating at this time o'f the year , there are many llttlo things ono could wish wore dlll'erenf. even If the house suits In all essentials , such as good plumbing , n large light kllchon , cheerful dining room , and dry cellar. For instance , the architect of Iho house may have added over the parlor windows a piece of stained glass , not very ii'sthotic to our eyes ; and yet it may be made a very pretty part of the window-furnishing oy simply taking a IHtlo tremble and thought. A brass rod may bo run across , and from tills a pain yellow silk curtain may bo suspended-- yellow for the ron-oii that the light shining through this color is much prettier than through many others. Let this curtain be divided in the midelle , and yellow silk balls sowed on along the edges. ThoM ? may be bought separately or by iho yard , the latter often fastened to a very pretty heading. Then the shade-i can IK ? put bol i\v this just where the white glasn bogiiH. Now , for very llttlo oxpoi e. a carpen ter will make lattice-work , and stain it the color of the wood-work in the s-o.-m. Have this peouroly fastened to the ca e- , incut or inside linisliing of the window at the top , below where one gciim-ully puts the curtain pole. Ho sure that ft dues not In any way interfere ) with the closing of the inside blinds. This will he found to ! .o very elVcetivc. with the yellow silk showing through. Helow that fasten another brass red , with pretty muslin , lace , or Madras curtains falling down to the lloor , and diaped back with rlbb.ms. or white cord ami tasbols if the curtains are white.
