How Harry Wack, a Newspaper Man, Won , Miss Yaw, the Singer, The story of how Harry Wack, the1 newspaper man, won Miss Yaw, the ; singer, "is delightfully new. Mr. Wack] tells it himself. Mr. Wack did not fol- j low the conventional paths in hi3 love- j making. He struck out after an origi-! nal method of his own. Mr. Wack met Miss Yaw He liked her voice, her per­ sonality, her splendid mind. She asked him to write some articles on psychol­ ogy and similar subjects. He wrote them. She liked them so well that she proposed that they exchange 100 essays on interesting topics. They did it j About the time the essays were finished --or before--they were engaged: T •should like to read those essays seria-1 tim. They would tell the story. I opine that the first ones dealt with the sub-* jects in hand in a strictly scientific fashion. Later on they commenced to take on the brighrtinge of love. I fan­ cy I can see Wack writing essay No. 53 with a tender light in his eye. There was a message in every line. Wack didn't care about the prosy subject he was treating He was thinking of the bright eyes for which the essay was in­ tended. Essays 9S, 99 and 100 must have been complete love stories in them-j selves. Here's to Wack and his essays. He is one of the brightest young men in litera­ ture, and it can be said of him that he has written the most powerful essays of the age.--Atlanta Constitution. a business oakds FRANK L.

If by any lucky stroke of fortune Tom Reed should happen to become presi­ dent of the United States, he will prob­ ably be the first accomplished linguist to occupy that office. Mr, Reed is pas­ sionately fond of the study of languages. Some years ago he took up French, and during the Fifty-first congress, while acting as czar over the house of representatives and passing through parliamentary storms of cyclonic sever­ ity, found time three days a week to go to a school of languages for his lesson in French. Later he took up Italian and is now able to converse fluently in thafc language. At the present time he iS; studying Spanish, and if the movement to annex Cuba to the United State3 should succeed during Mr. Reed's hoped for regime he will have in his command of this tongue a convenient accomplish­ ment. --Chicago Times-Herald.

A New Mining Fever Coming. There are indications that an era of speculation in gold mining stocks is rap­ idly approaching. The great cheapening of silver has directed renewed attention to the most precious of metals, and there has been a remarkable increase in its production during the past year. Cheap­ er and better machinery has been in­ vented, aud new and more effective processes of treating ores are being con­ stantly discovered. In consequence mines that were long ago abandoned as worthless have been reopened, aild new ones aro being located everywhere in the gold bearing regions. Under the new order of things a great deal more capi­ tal is required, and since comparatively few individuals can be found able or willing to take the risk of mining in­ vestments stock companies must be formed. The result may soon be that tha market will be flooded with mining securities. --Louisville Courier-Journal.
