Whe Romantic Story Which Will End in a Wedding at an Harly Date. There is a bit of romance in the love story of George D. Merriam, whose parents formerly lived in Laporte, Ind., and who is a relative of Gen. Henry C. Merriam, and Mary L.. Crawford, one of Laporte’s most popular young s0- ciety women. When they first met, over two years ago, it was a case “love at first sight.” [ach was under 20 and family interests forbade an en- gagement. The young people were put upon a term of probation. Young Merriam went west and was at Spo- kane when the Spanish war broke out. He wrote from there that he intended joining one of the regiments for the Philippine service. As this was the last letter Miss Crawford received from him, she naturally supposed he had gone to the Philippines. A few months ago: Miss Crawford saw an account of the death of an American soldier at Manila whose name was G. D. Merriam. The shock prostrated her, and she became dan- gerously ill, but after a number of weeks she recovered, and when strong enough wrote to Merriam’s parents at Spokane, Wash., condoling with them and assuring them that her love for their-son would live forever. The return post brought the astounding intelligence that George D. Merriam had never been a member of tho United States army or volunteers, had not been in the Philippines and was then hard at work at college, where he would be graduated at the end of, the present year. Miss Crawford’s embarrassment was great, for she had opened her-heart unreservedly to the parents of the man she loved, but joy overcame her embarrassment, and she faced the situation bravely. Investiga- tion revealed the fact that a false friend of Merriam had caused him to cease writing to Miss Crawford, but he speedily effected a reconciliation. It is understood by the friends of both parties that their engagement will be announced immediately after young Merriam is graduated, BUY SPANISH SHOES. Many American Soldiers in the Phile ippines Are Weering the For eign Made Article. Many American soldiers in the Phil- ippines are wearing Spanish made shoes. This strange fact was brought alarly to the very surface o' to light by a letter written by the French consul at Manila to his govern- ment, a copy of which has reached the war department. It says: “Shoes form one of the chief articles of commerce at Manila since the en- trance of the American troops. The large number of regulars or volunteers are forced to constantly renew their footwear. So far Spanish manufac- turers have mainly profited by this trade. The few tailors now established in this city have been overwhelmed with orders which, for want of capable workmen, they have been unable to ful- fill, The American army to-day forms their chief clientele. Uniforms of white, and especially khaki, are made everywhere in proportion as troops ar- rive from the United States or return to Manila from the front. Suits of cloth or light wool @#e ordered from the few European tailors. It is diffi- eult to find out just what the amount of importation of these cloths is, but the kind made in France is too hea for this climate, A light woolen clo’ ought to be especially manufactured for tropical countries, where the warm and moist temperature requires the use of materials extremely thin, but at the same time calculated to ward off chills.” MODERN MEXICO DEVELOPS. Vast Schemes of Internal Improve- ment Are Now Reported Well Under Way. About all the machinery and equip- ment material for the electrical trac- tion system adopted for an extensive system of street railroads at the City of Mexico and in the federal district is being bought in the United States. Electricity will be first applied to the suburban lines and then to the principal city lines. Electric cars are now running to Tacubaya and also to Guadaloupe, just outside of which is the shrine for all Mexican Catholics. Pilgrims now go out there propelled by a modern motor. Sir Weetman Pearson, M. P., of Lon- don, who has now cortracts amount- ing to $100,000,000 pending in Mexico, is in the City of Mexico, He says of the Vera Cruz port works, which his firm is building, that they are prac- tically finished. All the breakwaters have been completed for every effec- tive purpose and a new deep water quay giving over 800 yards of shipping space will be completed in six months, allowing ships drawing over 80 feet of water a chance to discharge their cargoes alongside the pier, their freight going directly into railroad cars or warehouses. Sir Weetman says the port works will make Vera Cruz as fine an arti- ficial harbor as any on the continent of Amertea. Too Soon to Judge, The New Yorker who has talked his last will into a phonograph may sup- pose that he has got ahead of the law- yers, but there are experienced liti- gants, says the St. Louis Dispatch, who will not jump at any such conclusion. ‘Warm Weather Then, When the ice trust raises its prices, | says the Philadelphia Ledger, nobody will care to be the iceman who will have to face the indignant housewives.

If the late Mr. Seebohm had wit | Messed the scene which I did on tel evening of Sept. 13, he might have, added a chapter to that on the migra-! tion night on Heligoland, which is the’ locus classicus of that branch of ornl+ thology. It was a dark, dripping evening, and the thick osier bed on Cheswick Eyot was covered with wet leaf. Between $ and @ o’clock immense flights of swallows and martins suddenly ap- peared above the eyot, arriving, not in aundreds, but in thousands and tens of thousands. The air was thick with them, and thelr numbers increased from minute to minute. Part drifted anove: in clouds, twisting round like SSS = soot in a smoke wreath. Thousands kept sweeping just over the tops of “The e Dudle ” the willows, skimming so thickly that ig iy the sky-line was almost blotted out for Dray and the height of from three to four feet.
