"3Tes, and I've done nothing but make the muffins and gather a bouquet for the breakfast table. Women waste their lives over trifles," was my reply, uttered in tones of woe-begone dejection. "Your work was as important as mine," he said; home is what we men work for. what we all live for; and if these seemingly small and trifling duties are not faithfully and pleasantly performed, a truly sweet home is never obtained. No work well done is a trifle." Then how reassured I felt, and how thankful that the muffins were light and delicious, golden-brown and tempting; the coffee simply perfect, and the roses all aglow and fragrant.

I had "despised the day of small things," but would do it no more. Fidelity is as necessary for the perfect accomplishment of a small duty as a great one. It Is as good for the needlewoman with her tiny stitches as for the world's great artists: for the humble chimneysweep as for the law-givers of the nation. Nature develops the commonest seedling with as much care as if it were to become a noble palm. Nothing is trifling with her.

What wise, blessed little words are these so frequently quoted, yet always coming to our minds with cheering, evergreen freshness and force: "Who sweeps a room, as for thy law3, Makes that and the action fine." I am' beginning to believe that the greatness of my work is in Its faithful accomplishment; the smallness in its being carelessly performed. If 'we make: a calculation of but one item in. a housekeeper's work, the serving of three times three hundred and sixty-live meals during the year, emitting the necessary planning and cooking, see how it. mounts up: One thousand and ninety-five meals! Who dares call that a small task? I think the daily recurring question for a large family, even with a proportionately large pocketbook. "What's for dinner? is a huge problem bv itself.

Then, when to all this contriving is added the care of cooking, it is no light work. Laving aside your own tastes, and catering to the appetites of the out-door workers, when perhaps your has been lost in the kitchen atmosphere, or destroved bv want of a change, is no trivial' matter. To do it long and successfully requires more courage and self-sacrifice than the heroes of history ever knew. Then let us all take heart, and be not discouraged by the seeming littleness of our tasks. We are honored, uplifted, by the most menial employment if our hearts Points of Contention for Belirlnc Sea Arbitrators to Settle.

New York, March 20. The Herald's Paris cable says: At the meeting on Thursday of the Behring Sea arbitrators it was decided that the sitting of the tribunal should not be held behind closed doors. This permits making public the exact points of the contention between the United States and Great Britain. Briefly stated, the case of the United States is that the Alaskan fur seal is begotten, born and reared only upon the Pribylov or sea islands in the Behring Sea, to which islands they return each spring to spend several months consorting together, In accordance with their gregarious natures; that while at these Islands the seals are easily controlled; that discrimination can be and has been exercised: that while absent from the islands during migration, which reaches as far south as the coast of California, they land on no other shore and mingle with no other herd of fur seals; that because of these habits the Alaskan herd and each individual of It are the sole property of the United States. The methods employed by the open sea sealers is attacked by the American government as destructive, wasteful and exterminating.

It is claimed that a large percentage of the seals killed by open sea hunters are females, the majority of which are about to become or are mothers. The destruction of the pregnant female causes the death of the unborn young. The death of th mother seal, killed while in search of food in the waters of Behring Sea, destroyed the offspring on the Pribylov rook-It is further claimed that many of the seals shot In the open sea by hunters escape mortally wounded or sink before the hunter reaches them. Open seasons, it is argued, will result in destruction of the herd in the near future. On the islands only a limited number of male seals are killed.

As the seal is polvgamous. a large number of males can be 'killed without affecting the birth rate of the herd. On these facts the American government claims that from the nature of the industrv established on the Pribylov Islands, the United States has the right to protect and preserve these seals wherever mav be found, as the animals can only be 'killed on United States territory without danger of extermination. It is also laimed "that owing to the long period of gestation pelagic sealing cannot at any time be otherwise than destructive, dangerous and wasteful and should therefore be prohibited. The cae of Creat Britain, on the other hand, is that the Alaskan seals have not the characteristics of animals that can be made subject to property; that it is not certain they land only upon the Pribylov Islands, or that they do not intermingle with the Russian seal herd, or that they are pelagic in nature: and therefore, should be treatd as fish rather than land animals: that manv of the propositions essential to the position taken by the United States are unproven or contrary to the facts.

As lo the pelagic sealing it is claimed that the abstractiveness and wastefulness have been greatlv exaggerated; that it is a legitimate" and 'proper method of taking seals, and that it can be prosecuted without danger of exterminating the herd. Much importance is also given by the British government to jurisdictional claims over the Bf-liring Sea. but this appears to be treated by the United States as a secondary question. Both nations concede that the seals have decreased the United States charging such to the destruction of the produc-in-' bv open sea sealing. Great Britain claiming 'that the present condition has caused bv the excessive number of males killed on islands and the Injurious effect of methods there employed.

LOOTED SEVE.Y SAFES. Arrest of a Burglar Who Owns Up to llelii a Bad Man. New York. March 2C For nearly two years the police have been on the lookout for the burglar who robbed the house of Edward W. Kemble, the artist, in New Rochelle.

The crime was perpetrated on the night of July 25, 18)1. and was one of unusual boldness and daring. After having ransacked the house, the burglar made his wav to the sleeping apartments of Mr. and Mrs. Kemble, pointed a revolver at the occupants of the room, who had been awakened bv his entrance, and appropriated nearlv all the valuables he could lay his hands 'on, while their owners were powerless to prevent It.

A single instance connected with the robbery made it a peculiar one. Having taken Ho from Mr. Kemble's trousers pockets, a gold watch and chain from the waistcoat, and three diamond studs from his shirt front the man was about to carry away Mrs. Kemble's gold watch, which lay on the dressing CPlease don't take that watch," said Mrs Kemble, "for it was a gift from my dead mother." The robber hesitated a moment, and then put the watch down again, with the remark: "I'll be honest for once thief also took all the family silver. Th" case was immediately reported to the central office of the police.

The burglar was easilv described. He was six feet tall, about 30 'vears of age and smooth shaven. On Saturday Detectives Nugent and Mc-Ginnis arrested two men as suspicious characters, and took them to police headquarters. One of them was six feet and he was at once recognized by the inspector as the probable perpetrator of the New Rochelle robbery His Identity was indicated by jewelry and silver found in his possession, and he was subsequently recognized by both Mr. and Mrs Kemble.

The man gave his name as William Dunn, his age as 33 years, and his residence as 190 Bowerv. He denied the New affair saving that he had bought tne watch and chain in Allegheny City. Pa. He had no hesitation, however in owning up to a. lot of crimes committed in Chicago with which he was not charged.

He said that he up seven safes in the Vindy City and looted the Meriden Clock Company office in that place of a quantity of valuable goods some time ago. It is believed that he is the man who the cashier of the New Jersey Oil Company in his office in Newark in 1S92 at the point of a pistol and appropriated the contents of the cash box. A newspaper clipping in his pocket described a highwav robbery at Woodlawn Park for which one Wm. Dunn was arrested for robbing William Beavans on March 4, whether during this year or at some previous time is not known. The prisoner was remanded at the Tombs Police Court yesterday.

Swht SPECino CoiiP-Axr, JUUnta, r- E. A. BCRLIXGAME, OP THE GRAND RAPIDS SUPERIOR COURT. ABLE AD FEARLESS, HIS RECORD IS OXE TO BE PROUD OF. Resarded as a Sure "Winner In tie Comlni Municipal Election.

Grand Rapids, March of the surest winners in the coming municipal election, as far as winners can be picked in advance, is Edwin A. Burlingame, judge of the Superior Court, whose name has become famous not only in this city, but all over the state, as a terror to evildoers. He has been such a feature in the city government In the last six years that the people have begun to loak upon him as a fixture, and such a valuable one that the citv cannot afford to lose him. During the time that he has presided over the court he has made a record of which the whole EDWIN A. BUBUS'GAME.

city is proud, and upon which his friends look with no little satisfaction. Able, just and fearless, he is one of the most popular magistrates in Michigan, and his popularity at home has been strikingly illustrated during the last few weeks by the hundreds of petitions sent to Lansing to remonstrate against the abolishment of the court. Periodically, in the last few years, efforts have been made to abolish the court. Judge Burlingame has incurred the enmity of a clas of men who wish the court abolished. A few years ago.

the saloon men became dissatislic-d Willi the manner in which the late John T. Holmes, judge of the Police Court, assessed-them SS and $3-J line for violations of the liquor law. and in the hope of bettering their chances, they succeeded in getting a bill passed taking the trials of these cases out of the Police Court and giving Judge- Holmes only tne power of holding the preliminary examinations. The trials were thereupon sent to the superior court, and it look the liquor men hut a few weeks to realize that they had jumped out of the frylngpan into the fire. First, Judge Burlingame began by imposing $25 fines, but Increased the assessments with each offense until a SloO fine and costs became a matter of common occurrence.

Then the judge began to notify the respondents that further repetition of the offenses would result In imprisonment, and this so frightened them that the number of liquor cases upon the recent calendars have been greatly reuueed. In the meantime, while "the court was becoming decidedly unpopular with the saloon element. Judge Burlingame was making hundreds of friends in other directions. Criminals were dealt with in the most severe manner. Many convictions and sentences served to convince the outcasts of societv that they were not wanted here, any many of the sentences imposed went out about the country as good examples for other magistrates.

The reputation of the court is now so clearly established in this regard that the average thief would rather face a live buzzsaw than stand before Judge Burlingame for sentence. During the last campaign. It is said that an understanding was had with the disgruntled element, and soon after the Legislature met a bill was introduced in Lansing to abolish the court. It was then that the popularity of the court was attested. Remonstrances sprung up on all sides and politics cut no figure whatever with the almost unanimous and spontaneous rebuke administered the movement.

Even attorney in the city, includinir Hon. T. J. -Q'Brien. late Republican candidate for the 'United States judgeship appointment, every merchant in the city, wholesale and retail, even" barker, and In fact even citizen of any prominence, signed the remonstrances.

The papers sprung up in the factories and long lists were sent to Lansing. There was no politics in the sentiment, but a genuine outburst of unanimous endorsement of the court. Attempts to prove, by ingeniously padded figures, that the court Is a burden -upon the taxpayers, have failed of their mission, and the bill has not since been heard from. Last Wednesday night the Democratic convention, yielding to the demand of the people could not do other than re-nominate Judge Burlingame by acclamation, and the action was hailed with delight. There are three tickets in the field, but there is little doubt of the election of the judge in a non-partisan spirit by an overwhelming vote.

KXIGHTS OF THE GRIP. Grand Rapids and Snsrlnavr After tne Sext Annual Meeting. Jackson, March 20. (Special.) The board of directors of the Michigan Knights of the Grip held their regular quarterly meeting in the parlors of the Hibbard House yesterday. There were present President N.

Deforest, of Detroit. The regular routine business was transacted, which was of no particular interest to the public. The question of location of lhe next annual meeting was taken up and discussed at considerable length. A delegation from Sairinaw was present and urged the claims of their city in a forcible manner. a ballot being taken the vote was a tie between Grand Rapids and Saginaw, and it was decided to lay the matter over until the next meeting, which will be held in Grand Rapids in June.

CRIME IX LAXSIXG. Citizens Held Up in Broad Dayllgnt by Tramps. Lansing. March Crime seems to be rampant in this city. Yesterday a gang of tramps swooped down upon the town, held up several citizens in broad davlight and stole nearly even-thing they could lav their hands on.

Three of the crowd were arrested at North Lansing and four others followed to a schoolhouse north of this citv. which they had broken into, and were taken into custody. They are a tough lot of fellows, and it is thought that one' or two old crooks are among them. The cigar store of Henry Moore, next door to the city jail, was broken into and about 120 in cash stolen. The oSce of the Lansing iron and engine works was also rifled.

There have been within the past ten days narlv a score of such burglaries and although the police force has been strengthened the toughs continue to have the freedom of the city. Buy City's Electric Road. Bay City, March 2G. (Special.) It is announced to-day that A. E.

Here is a pretty touch of life abroad from a correspondent, a lady of Leipsic: "At the opera I wear a gown of white grenadine embossed with flowers in scarlet and gold. It is a simple little French demi-toilette, and would pass unnoticed in New York or London, but I find to my dismay that It makes me the most conspicuous figure in the house, particularly as we occupy the proscenium box of a baron. Looking around for an explanation, I see that every one is dressed in black or some very dark color. How willingly I would take a seat in the back of the box! But this cannot be. As the guest of the evening, 1 must occupy the most prominent one beside the hostess.

Behind us are a group of officers in their beautiful Prussian uniforms. Thev only make a more effusive background. The music is so beautiful that 1 soon forget everything else. The orchestra is a remarkable one, and listening to it spoils me of all others that I hear for a long time. It seems very strange on returning home after the opera, to find that it is onlv 9 o'clock.

We scarcely know what to do with ourselves. My father has made an arrangement with the proprietor of the hotel to serve our dinner at 4 o'clock instead of 2. Whether our host has been profundi- impressed with our distinguished visitors, or whether inspired bv the hour, certainly we are served in state. The large dining hall is thrown open for our single little table, and the curtain drawn from before some scenery at the upper end, as on the occasion of a ball. Our three attendants are devoutly assiduous and the head waiter escorts us to the door, backing all the way before us, and standing motionless in the entrance until we have reached our own door."

The steamer stopped two days among the pearling fleet on the great pearling grounds of the world, out beyond sight of land, where 1.300 men are working. Here Miss Aekerman put on the diving-dress and went down, sixty feet, to the ocean's bed, and saw for herself "the wonders of th deep." She is the first woman to make the experiment, and much relief was felt when she returned to the boat in safety. On Jlotu Sides.

Lake City, March 23. As fast as Northern Michigan pine lands are stripped ot their vahtnLu timber thov hnve heen regarded as utterly valueless, and "Michigan sand" has become a synonym tor -n-ortniessneoa. If la nnnr coltlorl hrtWeVer. that at ldlSt one block of Northern Michigan sand has a commercial value and tnat, too, ewuoj because it is sand. Some months ago news -went out from here that Simon Langley, of this place, be-UpvmI that the sand on the shore of Musk- rat Lake had a commercial value for glass making purposes, and proposed to nave it thoroughly tested.

Some state papers (particularly some in this section) Indulged in many witticisms regarding Lake City's Mocci Mctipi fin the airl. which were built on a foundation of sand. The tests are now practically completed, ana Mr. Langley proudly shows a massive glass chain, fifteen feet in length, made from Lake City sand at a factory In Ontario, and the doubters are becoming believers with astonishing rapidity. After the first report some quiet preliminary examinations and slight tests by experts were undergone, and the reports being favorable, Mr.

Langley shipped a ton of sand to the factory for a final test. The first news from this has reached here In the shape of a congratulatory letter from the man who conducted the test, accompanied by the chain above mentioned, which is composed of the best quality ot clear white flint glass. He reports the sand capable of making any quality of glass, and believes it is better than that now used in his factory, which is procured in Nova Scotia. The supplv here is sufficient to furnish several large factories for fifty years to come. Lime (the principal ingredient in glass, next to sand) is found in abundance comparatively close at hand.

Hardwood to make charcoal for fuel grows in endless abundance in sight of this sand pit. This sand pit (or sand bank rather) which contains this particular kind of sand forms a portion of the east shore of Musk-rat Lake; on which Lake City is built. The available sand comprises about twenty acres in the north end of the village, and a strip about sixty rods long and fifteen to twentv wide, in the south end. This once probably formed part ot the bed of the lake, but is now eight or ten feet above the water level. Steps will be taken at once to have two factories built, at least one of which will be controlled by home capital, and Lake Citv will aspire to be called the glass town" of the state.

That this sand is not plentiful and In fact exists nowhere else in this end of the state, at least, is proven by the fact that a sand expert tested the sand along the shores of the great lakes and most of tha inland lakes, some years ago, but missed Muskrat, and found no glass sand except at Manistee. A glass sand was found at the latter point, but it contained something which made the glass too brittle, and was for that reason unavailable SICK HEADACHE these Little PilU.

A young couple just starting life, with only "enough for simple and economical living, received at their wedding several hundred handsome, expensive, and many of them ornate presents; presents from relatives whom they had never seen, from mere acquaintances, and from people for whom they cared nothing. It took them vears, as they said, to live down these presents. Many of them they simply put in a safe deposit vault; but they felt under oblieation to each giver of gifts, and when, in turn, these friends and acquaintances were married, the young couple felt in duty bound not only to send them a present, but one that as nearly as possible approached in financial value that given them, it behooves us to call a halt in the giving of engagement presents, and to curb as much as possible promiscuous giving in wedding presents. A wedding is a family rite, and an intimate sharing in it belongs to those alone who are nearest the bride and groom fn blood and in Chautau-quan. Always YonnB.

Dear me. Maud! How could you ever bring yourself to marry such an old man "Money is always young, my dear. Life. Business Habit for Girl. Whether a woman is poor or rich, it behooves her to acquire methodical business habits, keeping her little accounts accurately and knowing to a cent just what she does with her money, whether she has ten cents or $10 to expend on her own little personal Wants.

An allowance is the first stet toward this end. if at the same time It is impressed upon her that every sum should be set down with unfailing ri-ularitv. In black and white one notes how much more quickly it goes and just what foolish little nothings have lured it from our pockets. Without setting down each item, it Is ten chances to one that you will conclude you must have lost some money when you can not see how that S10 bill went when you onlv bought such a very few things, lhe neat little figures are a genuine restraint, besides instilling a habit and system that will be of great value if ever fortune smiles and a great estate comes to your hands, and still greater if economy is a necessity and the dollar has to be forced into doing duty for two. Unless the accounts are kept accurately, and th cash made to balance every evening you had better not attempt any bookkeeping at all.
