"Any man would, for she hed the sweetest; face. It's haunted me an night--it ho* really. I dare say she was about 18, or perhaps 20--not more. She had brown eyes, very brown eyes--you know, the kind that seem to speak almost--and they were shaded by long lashes. She had brown hair, too--the kind of hair that twists itself into a lot of little carls--natural curls, you know. I wonder why all girls don't weartheir hair that way. Then her mouth--her mouth--" •. "Never mind the mouth," I Inter­ posed, hastily, seeing that he was about to indulge <n an extravagant flood of rhapsody. "It was an ideal mouth, \ haven't a doubt." "She sat down next to me," he went on. "There wasn't much room, and she thanked me when I moved. She had the sweetest voice." "Well, there's nothing curious about that.

"But I haven't got a sister, and If I tad she'd never let me choose her gowns for her; besides, she'd have to lie fitted on Mid all that you know." I was obliged to admit the force of these arguments, and a fresh period of eilence intervened. Debenham had risen, and was pacing the floor In « •ftate of perplexity. 'How would it be If I Inclosed the money in an envelope and sent it anon­ ymously?'he said at length. "You might do that certainly," I re. ffted, after a little consideration.

"I shall never forget your kindness. And as she gave him her hand she blushed in a ridiculous fashion. Then Debenham made an ass of him­ self. Instead of simply shaking hands and saying good-morning, he held her fingers and said nothing, but Just stared at her in a moonstruck kind of way that was quite idiotic, and she drooped her head like a little silly and went the color of a-- peony; then . But at this point I could stand it no longer, and I^utetly withdrew. » Of course I was not in the least as­ tonished when Debenham rushed Into my chambers the Same afternoon and, with a good deal of stammering, con­ fessed that he was engaged. He seemed amazed When I betrayed no surprise; but I didn'tj tell him that I had been a witness of! his folly ' I was presented to the future Mrs. Debenham and her sister a few days later'.

He had complained of nothing save his weakness, and there was nothing to indicate anything dangerous in his cqindition. In the death of Richard J. Ogleshy the State of IWaois loses one of the last of th ̂ group of great men who took so prominent a part in the political affairs of the State during and immediately after the civil war. Like Yates, the great war Gov­ ernor of the State, end like Beveridge and Palmer, he had himself boene arms in the service of the Union and had done in the field under Grant the work that Lincoln was designing at Washington. His wee record was conspicuously brilliant and he left the field, wounded and unfit tor far­ ther service, with the rank of major gen­ eral. His eligibility for the post of Gov-, ernor was instantly recognized. It was his deserved distinction to be. eiected Gov­ ernor three time®. Is 1864, agate in 18T2 and again in 1884, although he resigned at the beginning of his second term in or­ der to accept a seat in the United States Senate. Gov.

He was » nan of sterling integrity, aoiid judgment " considerable neocenes* «f - - ̂" was ap earnest fo4<^«ef or y but kept his own h>depefe& pending issues. The regret be felt at his deetlivwill be so; by the recognition of the fact that hisTOng life was well rounded with useful activi­ ties, on behalf of State and nation.
