Let us turn now to the roasts of tropical East Africa, where tbe vast native, population are only beginning to emerge from a stab* of barter^ and are still burk'd in liarbarism and ignor­ ance; and yet tn spite of their low con­ dition and of the Arab slave trade and other disturbances which have long kept their country ,n a turmoil, we find that these natives an* the sjiont a neons producers of exports that for some years have amounted to about S3,000,01X1 per. annum. It has been proven that their country possesses large resources, and it certainly is not a Utopian Idea to suppose that Ils trade, under happier conditions and properly stimulated ami organized, • Is capable of large development. In seven months of last year about 15,000,000 worth oljvory was sold in Antwerp from a part of the Upper Congo which, five years ago, had never contributed a cent to the wealth of foreign markets: and it is found that in parts of this basin tobacco. coffee, and many other products thrive, and steps have already been taken to open in this region plantations for produc­ ing these commodities. It is an experi­ ment, to be sure, but its promoters have good reason to believe that II will succeed, and the plantations will pay. Tills, then, is ’he reason why the European nations’are scrambling for Africa: they see there potentialities capable of Incoming large sources of trade and wealth: and every year they are becoming more and more certain that interests acquired on that con­ tinent will in the iong run pay well for th«* investment. an that basis with the armorclad al­ ready authorized a nd not yet- c<intract•d for.

This was intended to produce some­ thing like the English Warspite and the Imis'rieusf*. which are of about 7,400 tons; but it was aimed to give the new vessel a little more sjx-cd and armor than theirs. As Congress how­ ever, has made a liberel allowance for this vessel, sufficient, in fact, to build an armorclnd of 9,(XXi or lO.ooo t ins 1 n GreatBritian. the Navy Department could easily increase the statute displacem<*nt in its plan*, as in the case ’ of the Maine.

LETTERS FROM THE FORMIM. Pt.A»« »pnu<i»«ohoo»«r. logothrou<b OUR PLAN DIDN’T WORK Mr. and Mrs. Jones wore humble people, in moderate circumstsncen, and lived upon a small farm. They had but one child, a daughter, who waa always called Siaay. Sissy was about my age, and I was about six years old, when “Father" Jones adopted mo into his family. When I was about eight years of ago a relative of Mr. Jones died. To attend the funeral was a big day’s journey for his slow horse. They did not like to leave uh with tlie sole care of the place on the day of tho funeral, yet Jhey seemed to think of no way to prevent it. Bo, for that entire day wo were left in charge of everything. They kept one horse, two cows, a pig or two, and a great deal of poul­ try. It waa my work from the start, mine and Siaay's, to do what we could for the cattle and poultry, and ’we quarreled not a little over the work. We ahared alike aport as well as work, and were much together. Some­ times Sissy exercised authority over tne, claiming her rights as lawful pos­ sessor. Thu her parents would not permit when they knew of it. . The work assigned for us to do was to water the cows at noon, at night (nit them in their stable, feed the poul­ try, and. if they returned late, provide wood and coal and kindling. • I can see yet how Mother Jones looked when she started. She was dressed in plain, old-fashioned garb, and her eyes had a peculiar, wistful expression. She cautioned us over and over not to turn things topey-turvy, not to lekve the house alone, or make fires, as none was needed. Mrs. Jones was a very careful house­ keeper. Our dinner was spread on the Id tchon table and neatly covered with a spotless linen cloth. * After she had closed the kitchen door she passionately embraced both Sissy and I, as if she never expected to see us alive again. Then she slowly walked to tho old square-top carriage and reluctantly climbed into it. Father Jones looked worried as he stepped in after her and drove slowly away. We hod previously planned our sport and wore very impatient, so we thought that they would never get started. Next to the yard was a small field; below this field was a largo apple orchard, in which we were raising a calf. This calf was very tame. Sissy and I ho<l made a pet of it, and hail quarreled not' a little in selecting n name. Finally, we decided on Daisy­ Dingle, that each might have an in­ dividual claim upon the name. I hud often told Sissy that I thought if we could get tho chance we might ride upon Daisy-Dingle’s back. When we discovered that we were to have this Sunday to ourselves we at once decided that this would be a golden opjiortunity. . We planned our ride with many fears, lest it might be rainy, or jierhaps we might be seen aud have our doings reported. The weather proved to be all that we could desire. As soon as Mr. Jones drove off Sissy ♦nd I skipped up stairs, for it had been -decided that Sissy must have a sidesad die. and ahe had things in readiness to make one. First, she produced two of her another’s dresses, which were slightly worn; 'then, with a big husk needle and twine, we fashioned a saddle; the ♦leaves served for stirrups. Our nearest neighbors- had gone to church and their house was closed, as was nearly every liou.se in the neigh­ borhood. The coast was clear. Daisy-Dingle boin^ a pet, did not object to the were hungry. So we rood tided that if wa atoppesl to eat, perhaps by the time we came back Daisy-Dingle might per­ mit us to toko a ride. Hastening to the house, we were hardly courageous enough to enter. We had neglected to fasten doors or windows. Our appetites got the beP ter of us. and we cautiously entered. Fortunately nothing had been disturberl. While eating we quarreled over a certain piece of pie. Pie and plate were broken and trampled upon the kitchen carpet. We were coming to a “fist fight," when Sissy remembered that there was another pie of the kind in the cellar. -She brought it, and we devoured the most of it in peace. While eating the pie wo resolved upon a new plan. In our eagerness to try it wo forgot our noon work, and again leaving the house went to the orchard. Poor Daisy-Dingle! It was a rather wacm day in July, and at'noon the heat was oppressive for a poor worried calf. Our plan did not work. Daisy­ Dingle would Dot stand, no we gave her more exercise until at last she waa con­ quered. Junt as Sissy had taken her place astride the calf's back our neighbor, who had returned from church, and who had l>een watching us unobserved, came along, interfered, and we were obliged to abandon our sport. We were mortified aud worried to think we had Iwen discovered, aud thus made liable toex]K>sure as well as jmniuhmcnt. We ran into the barn to hide, each blaming the.other for whpt had I wen done. Soon tiling of this, we looked alxmt to see what next we could do unobserved. Mr. Jones mfde cider for vinegar. He kepi Imrrcla of it in hi* barn. There were three liarrels that Sissy and I liail often thought might still bo fit to drink, but how to get eome had alwavs been a puzvlc. \Ve thought thi* an excellent oppor­ tunity for tasting it. The bnb'gs were tight in each barrel, and we >aw no possible way to get them out; but instead of spigots there were (dugs that we thought might be easily knocked out. I gave one hard hit and the cider, or rather vinegar, came suddenly spurting over both of us in a stream, and we were thoroughly, drenched. We had planned to drink with strewn, but aid not even taste it, for we made an effort to replace the plug. Am it finally ceased flowing we con­ cluded that we were successful in stop­ ping it. Wo tried the second and third bar­ rels with almost the same result. Next we hunted eggs. The*e we took to the kitchen, made a coal fire, filled the tea-kettle with eggs and water, put it over the fire, and closed the stove. While waiting for the eggs to boil we remembered our work. As it was getting late we «lrop(>ed everything, and. leaving the door wide open, pro­ ceeded to water cattle. In the midst of this Mr. and Mrs. Jones returned. They had been very anxious about us, and came back much earlier ^than was anticipated. When Mother Jones caught sight of us she screamed, but when she reach­ ed the 'kitchen door and saw at one glance tho hot stove and a hungry tramp feasting upon the remains of our dinner, she gave one piercing shriek and fainted away, which sc scared the tramp that he tied. The kettle had boiled dry and wa» emitting a strange odor. The stove was hot enough to burst, and the carpet was irreparably spoiled. Mrs. Jones was sick all night froir fright. The next morning Daisy-Dingle was found dead. Our neighbor came to tell of our doings in the orchard, just at the mo­ ment Mr. Jones discovered, by the smell of vinegar, what had happened to his barrels. Mrs. Jones alwnt this time discoV* ered the eggs aud tbe ruined condition of the tea kettle. She could not find the dress she hod wished to wear that day. nor could slie for a long time get over the loss of two. or the ruined con­ dition of our ciothes.besidea everything else. They wisely concluded to never leave us alone again. Both were too indulgent to punish us severely, so we got off with a mild reprimand. They Named themselves for not getting an older ponton to take charge of us. Years have passed. Both Mr. and Mrs. Jones arc dead. Sissy and I are married. From this we learned a good moral, and it serves us well in our own family of little ones. It is this: Never leave children alone with tho care of a house. ______________________ I insisted that Sissy should have the first ride. She had r.o trouble getting on, but her weight, together with fix­ ing her feet in the stirrups, scared Dausy-Ptngle, who started at a full gallop before we were ready. A Severe Test.

The following is a true story, and is well worth printing: Two young ladies of this city were desirous ol join­ ing one of the prominent Episcopalian churches, but as they had boon taught that immersion waa the true form of baptism, they wished, on joining them­ selves to the chnrch, to be baptized in that manner. They stated their wishes to the pastor, aud he expressed him­ self entirely willing to administer the ordinance in that form, bnt as there were no conveniences in the church edifice for the purpose, it would be necessary to go outside—to tlie frog pond on the common, or the pretty lakelet in the Public Garden. They looked upon thia proposal with horror. They could not think of it, cotHd-not think of making such a spectacle of themselves. "Then," said the genial pastor, “yon had better go to the Baptist Church f ir the purpose, ami after baptism, if you desire it, you will be received into the Episcopalian fold.” The ladies were delighted with the suggestion and as soon os convenient called upon a prominent Baptist pas­ tor and made known their wish to be baptized. “Certainly," replied the pastor, “but there are certain preliminaries to lie gone through before baptism, certain preparations to be made. It is a solemn ordinance, one not tq be lightly submitted to, and,' by the way^ft' ap­ pears to me strange that you have not previously consulted me, that the prep­ arations ho necessary------ ” “Oh! we are already prepared,” said the voung ladies. “Already prepared?" “Yea; we do not intend to become members of your church; we only want to be baptized, as we believe immersion to be the proper form of baptism. We are going to join the Episcopalian Church." “Oh! that’s it," said tho pastor, ris­ ing: “then permit me to inform you, my dear young ladies, that we do not wash Episcopalian sheep here."—Bos­ ton Courier.

A cook who had burned up a piece of veal weighing four pounds threw it away, and afterward explained to her mistress that tbe cat had eaten the meat. "Very well,” said the ladv, “we will see that directly." So saying, she took the dat, put it on the scales, and found that it weighed exactly four pounds. "There.

Early last summer a New-Englander moved out to a small town in Arizona and announced his intention of ojiening up a first-class grocery. He had a number of bills posted up, dwelling particularly on the fact that the busi­ ness was to be square and above board. Just ns he was getting ready to open shop a deputation of citizens waited on him and asked the new-comer if the statement on the placards were made in good faith. “You mought as well give m» the hull truth about this thing," said the leader. “Y’ou mean to say there hain’t goin’ to be do water in the vinegar ?" “That’s what I mean, sir!" replied the stranger, a little surprised. “Nor no sand in the sugar!” “Ain’t there goin’ to be beans in the coffee?” “Most decidedly not, air!" “Norchicory, nuther?" “Never, gentlemen; I give you my word for it." Tbe crowd seemed nonplused for a moment, and the leader held a short consultation, at the end of which he turned and said: “Say, stranger, we’ve concluded that Jou air a suspicious character.

Girls. It was excellent advice I saw lately given to voung ladies urging them to marry only gentlemen or not marry at all. A true gentleman is generous and unselfish. Ho regards another’s happiness and welfare ns well as his’ own. Yon will see the trait running through all his actions. A man who is a bear at home among his sisters end discourteous to his mother is just the man to avoid when you come to the great question which is to be answered yes or no. Y'ou need not die old maids. But wait until the prince passes by. No harm in delay. Yon will not bo apt to find him in the ball-room. Nor is he a champion billiard player. He hns not had time to become a “champion," for he has had too much honest, earnest work to do in the world. I have always ob­ served that these “champions’* were seldom good for much else. Be wary in choosing, girls, when sc. much is at stake. Do not mistake a passing fancy for undying love. Mar rying in haste larely ends well. Do not resent too qpich the interference of your parents. Y'ou will travel long and far hi this world before yon will find any one who has your true inter­ est at heart more than your father and mother.—Philadelphia Berard. A Curious Optical Illusion. A very striking optical illusion oc curred to an author while engaged in writing. He was seated at a table, with two candles before him. when uj on directing his eyes to them, he was surjirised to observe, apparently among his hair, and nearly straight above his head, but far without the range of vis­ ion, a distinct image of one of the can­ dles. Tha image was bh perfect as if it had been formed by reflection from a piece of mirror glass; but where the reflecting surface was he could not at first discover. He examined hi* eye­ brows anu eyelashes, but in vain. At length a lady tritxl her skill, and after a careful search ahe perceived, between two eyelashes, a very mixrate speck, which, on being removed, turned out to be a chip of red wax, highly jxi ished, which was thereat mirror on tl occasion, and which bad probably started into his eye when he was break­ ing tbe seal of a letter, only a short time before he observed the phenome­ non. ______________________ Sundays in England. The qnestiou of Sunday observance is one which disturbs the clergy of England more, perhaps, than any other, says an exchange. In some places the clergymen themselves have, in order to secure some sort of respect for the day. inaugurated Sunday cricket clubs, the only restriction be­ ing that as toon as tbe church bells ring, the players shall leave the game and attend to their religious duties. An effort is also being made to encourage the opening of museums and picture galleries on Sunday. The position is taken that it is better to provide some innocent amusement than to allow the men to idle about the streets and ptherwise pass the Sabbath in vicious idleness. Paganini and the Cabman. The celebrated violinist, Paganini, had onee to give a concert at the Carlo Felice in Genoa, and being late, he drove in a cab. On alighting he offered the usual fare to the cabman, who re­ fused it, saying that a great man, wh was able to plav as well on one string as on four, ought to give him at least double the fare. “Very well," answered Paganini, “I will pay you double when you will be able to drive me to the theater on one wheel.’—Pick-Me-Up, War not pour tlie drink into tho gut­ ter?

A London cable says: Tho repeated aaserllons of thu insanity of tbe Czar are duly dented, but It Is true that the officials nearest his person find It difficult to gain aecesa to him oven for tbe purpose of ob­ taining his signature to documenta er con­ ferring with him upjn the most important subjects. While certaln^.onalliatory proj­ ects were under his consideration there eame the discovery of tho latest plot, in­ volving officers personally dear to him un<f in whom he had themost undoubting trust, and the history of Russia under tbe remainder of his reign will be .that of an unceasing struggle between the cUnning of unscrupulous tyranny and the craftiness of dosperato anarchy. It is Impossibl, to affirm or deny’the reports as to the Gear's health, but the reticence held concerning it Is deemed suspicious, and tho effect Is felt upon every bourse in Europe. Colonel Voleikoff, of the Czar's body guard, and several other mllitery officers suspected of plotting against the life of the Emperor, have committed suicide. It is stated that a brother of tho Czar will shortly be ban­ ished from the capital for meddling in political affaira FOUR LITTLE C11ILUHEN SUFFOCATE. At Erie. Pa.. Mr. and Mr% Carl Ito/alinski left their four children at horns with Mrs. RogaUnsk.'s brother while they went to make a call. Tho Unit, ones' uncle wsi intoxicated, and he laid his lighted pipe down or the bed in which the children were sleeping. The £ed took fire, and tho bouse was nearly consumed before tho firemen arrived. Tho drunken man es­ caped. as did Mary Towllndti. lhe owner of the house, but the children were all suffocated. While a Baltimore public school wa* in session the steam heat ng boilers exploded with terrific force, partially wrecking the building. Nearly two hundred scholars, ranging in age from seven to eighteen years, were present, and a panic ensued. No one was hurt by tho explosion, but in the rush for the stairs Alice Delorme, aged nine, was trampled to death by older chil­ dren. A number of the smaller children were badly bruised, but none were serious­ ly hurt. A London cable says: Lord Robert Cor­ nel as Napier, ot Magdala, is dead. He was a victim of influenza. Lord Napier was born In 181U and served with distinc­ tion in a number of wars in whlph Great Britain was engaged, bin most brilliant campaigning being I-. connection with tbe capture of Pekin, the Abyssinian expedltA>n, and the catqura of Magdala.

Many a traveler has referred to the fact that the negroes of Sierra Leone imagine they are fully equal to thewhito man if they only adopt his clothing. The vanity thus engendered makes them very’ ridiculous and use­ less persons. Most efforts to induce people in a savage state or of inferior civilizations to adopt our dress have deservedly 'failed, the proposed reform not being adapted, as a rule, to the retjulrvinents of the climate. But white men find it very advantageous at times to accept the nativedre-.s. This is the case in the interior of China, where the people nut being accustomed to see the odd garments of Caucasion*. with which the natives of the treaty ports have become familiar, are apt to display an unfriendly spirit toward white men In foreign dress. They have found, how­ ever, that If they adopt the native cos­ tume they can usually pass without molestation, can travel far .more cheaply, and can pursue their labors with much less peril. Many mission­ aries In Inner Chinn now Wear the na­ tive dress. To tTFnt fact alone they owe their success in getting a foothold in the city of Huchow, which tor twen­ ty years defeated all their efforts to live within its limits. Some.bodles of missionaries, like the China Inland Mission of England, have one and all adopted the native costume. This month the Baptist Missionary Mag­ azine of Boston giv<*s an Interesting picture of t wo American missionaries in their Chinese attire. These teachers could not do a more sensible thing under the circumstan­ ces. for the dress they have assumed is decent, comely, and comfortable. But the sooner some missionaries get over the idea that they are sent abroad not only to preach Christianity, but a(so to advocate trousers cut after New York or London patterns, the better it will be for their work.

ALEXANDER SOWEX. RAVELING through the great pine regions of Eaat Texan one, summer Satur­ day afternoon found mo on one of those deepsand roads, several miles from the nearest town. I knew that all business was sus­ pended- in throe country towns on Sunday, and that the entire popu­ lation attend •n”church in ’ the ' morning, and the men sit out in front of their stores in the afternoon and whittle goods boxes and gossip. Talk about a church sewing society! No association - of women L ever knew of can compote with these gathering.-* of men in our small towns on Sunday afternoons, or on.clection, or holidays, for gossiping. Many family feuds have arisen from these Sunday male gossip gatherings in the towns and hamlets of the South which resulted in assassinations and bloody battles between the families in­ volved for several generations. I did not care to spend the Sabbath in one of those small towns, so I rttopjxxl at the first inviting house I came to on the road-side that looked like there was plenty of provender for my team, a shelter for my buggy aud room for a “stranger." as wayfarers are called in the provincialism of the country, to sleep la­ in response to my “Hello’." an old lady came to the door, vigorously knit­ ting on a woolen sock. Peering over her steel-rimmed spectacles, she asked what was w anted. “I would like to stay here over Sun­ day. if 1 cun. I do not wish to spend the Sabbath in a town, and I am will­ ing to pay for my accommodation and for mv horses." “Will, my son Hunk ain’t here now, but his wife is. I’ll fetchher. Hank’s gone ter town, an’-I ’low she kin tell you more about it. Oh, Jinny!" In answer a young woman of about twenty-two years dame to the door. She said 1 would be welcome to stay if I would “put up with what the family bad.” :w they had made no prepaia tions for company. “Mv husband will be home soon," she said. A boy was called, who took my team to the “lot," and I went into the house. It was one of those great double log house.-*, “chinkisd” with cement, and whitewashed outside and ceiled within aud pa|*errd. It was a warm day, about two hours Wore sunset, and the great open firej lace was used to set flower note iu with native flowers, which filled the rooms with a delicate perfume. In looking olor the album on the table. I came qprotM a girl’s face I had seen in Illinois years before on a trip to the country. As the hostess passed through the "front" room, I asked her if she knew the original of that little girl’s picture. She stam­ mered, and said it was hers when she was small. I then told her when and where I wav at her fapier’a house, and ascertained that she had met her.hnaband, Mr. Hank Adams, a Texas planter, uncultured but big-hearted, while he was up there having some fine horses; they fell in love at sight, and hod been happily married more than a year. Am she said this, her beaming face told of supreme happin«y*s and contentment, and in speak­ ing of her husband, her voice took on that soft, low accent and tone which told of deepest love and entire confi­ dence. I mention these things njf cause I had them forcibly and pain­ fully brought back to me within the eucceeding twenty-four hours. When her husband came in she in­ troduced me as sn old acquaintance, whom she had met in her girlhood at her father’s, in Illinois. He gave me a cordial greeting, and I heard him kiss­ ing his pretty little wife in the next room a moment afterwards, and telling her that nothing was too good for any one who luul known her "folks" and her. ' The next morning Ilnnk was.called away early to go to a »uwer plantation he had a few miles from home to attend to «>me breaks in the fences made by cat fie which had broken into his corn and cotton fie;d« during the night.

When Judge McConnell reached the others be asked Coughlin if he hod any­ thing to say why sentence should not be passed on him. The big cx-dotectlvo was on his feet In a moment He direct­ ed his glittering little eyes straight at tho court and said in a firm voice: “Yer honor, I'm innocent This crime was committed by persons I don’t know. I was convicted by perjury.” With a ner­ vous bow to the court to indicate that ho had finished he reached across the pris­ oners’ row, seized John Kunze’s hand, and wrung it heartily. Tears of grati­ tude and joy sprung Into tho little fel­ low’s eyes, and It was only after an effort that he was able to avoid crying out as he did the day tho jury rendered Its verdict. O’Sullivan, looking grim and deter­ mined, was on hia feet before Coughlin sank back h bls chair. “I, too, your honor, am innocent,” he said, “and I-“feel that some day the world will know it. I have been con­ victed by perjured . 1'ATiucKo’sui.t.xvAXtestimony. 1 am not hero to ask for mercy. All I ask for Is Justice, if I am innocent of this crime. I have not had justice; but if I urn guilty, the State has not had justice.” Martin Burke, with his long, heavy Taco glowing, his little eyes snapping, and his jaws working like an automatic machine, followed O’Sullivan. “I’m. In­ nocent, too," ho said. “In England I always knew they put perjured witnesses on the stand, but 1 never knew they did It in America." When be said this Mar­ tin sat down, looking triumphant and happy. He seemed to feel that he had unloaded a great mental burden. A minute later all three were on their feet, listening to tho solemn words of tho court that consigned them to a Bring death In the penitentiary. When they sat down again they were all pale and! trembling. The ordeal was too much even for their snperb nerve. Old man Coughlin, the sturdy father of tho chief conspirator, was sitting on one of tho front benches, aud In spite of himself tears came into his eyes us he saw his. son marched buck to tho jail for tho last time. Kunze was brought back into court and Lawyer Donahue made itn effort to have him released on bail. Forrest offered to sign a bond for 81,000, but Judge McConnell thought that 85,000 would not bo too much. This, Forrest said, was too much for him, so Kunze had to go bock to confinement, buoyed by Judge Ixingenecker’s vague promise thal lie may lie liberated in a week. About 8:80 the three men under sen­ tence were brought from their cells in tho county jail and heavily ironed. Car­ riages were in waiting and guarded by Sheriff Matson and an armed posse of deputies and police they wero taken to the 9 o’clock Alton train. Joliet (III.) dispatch: When the party arrived at tho penitentiary at 10:35 none but tho captain of the night watch greeted the delegation which reached tho prison headed by Sheriff Mataon. At the prison doors that officer, in a very formal and buainess-Uke way, turned the trio of Clan-no-Gael assassins over to Warden Berggren and the board of cotdmissiouers,.who are In session. There was no ceremony whatever. Warden Berggren at once turned tha culprit* over to Night Captain Nortor, who deprived them of thelf valuables in the usual way and hustled them out ot the big Iron door down to the court soli­ tary, where they were left for the night without change of clothes.

Don t aay t hat 'She is your wife, and your child's mother, and allers that is something to remember. -Tell me,” he said, laying down bls old fashioned carpet sack on a chair, and taking off his bat "toll mo— ‘how long so neo she left ye!” “Two weeks yesterdaygroaned Jacob. “She’s pretty, ye sayi” “Yes,” gritted Jacob through his tooth, “as a flower. But, ob! what was the use of my bringing you here, father. 1 was ■ selfish fool. Such a journey—you arc tired, toko off your ooat—let me—oh!

In extremity any straw seems a piuuk. Jacob, overwhelmed by bis agony, let him go. Uncle Aaron, with his straightforward directness, found the place he wa. la search of with a quicxness to one atraage to the city, and was soon in frout of the box-office. "The gallery's a gned pu*co for seeing,” said the ticket agent, glancing knowingly at his country clothes. “No,” said Undo Aaron,'simply; “I want a giKxl seat." "Oh,” smiled the man, “one dollar and fifty cents, then," passing out a check. Undo Aaron paid his money, took the ticket, and for tho first timo iu his life was in a theater. He took bls seat, took up the programme and waited. No one of that crowded house dreamed ef the tragic errand that brought that old man there With difficulty he spelled out the names of the cast. “Edith, daughter of the Squire—Rose Clark,” he read. "That’s her, I must walk" In tbe course of time sho camo upon the stage—Ruse Clark. Tho old man drew his breath hard and looked at her. Yes, she was charming, no doubt about that—and charming no', only on aceouut of her pretty face, but charming with a bird-like saudness that was piquant to all her bearers. The old mr.u looked and listened, studying her voice and theks of gesture; and then, with a cunning very foreign to his nature, mado up bis mind that he would win herover by a strategem. Al the cud of the fl rat oct he turned to a gentleman seated at his left and asked: “Con you tell me, sir, how a body could get to speak to one or them there, afore they leave tho tbeateri” Tbe young fellow stared, but answered: “Ob, yes; go to the green-rvom just before the last act.” •‘Wuich be the way there, please!" “What did you oak! How to get to the green-room! If you wish 1 will takoj-ou there. Acquainted f “No-o," hesitated Uncle Aaron; “but I want to speak u>—Rose Clark." “I see," nodded the youug scamp at his side “She is jolly. Merry as a bobolink always. Ever ace her before!” “No," said Uncle Aaron, “not before to­ night.’’ ‘TU introduce you," smiled tho young fellow; “waituotil tho next act is over." “Thankee,” said Uncle Aaron, simply. . Towards tbo close of the play tho young fellow leaned over to Uncle Aaron and said: “Come, I'm going now.” Undo Aaron picked Up bls hat and fol­ lowed Dim. Tho young fellow stepped Into ■ sort of • side corridor and said: “We'll have to wail a mlnuto—they haven't rung tbo curtain down yet-* “I kin wait," said Undo Aaron. “What a curious old follow you are,” thought the young man, eyeing him inquisi­ tively. Soon the actors came trooping off, the stage with the alacrity of school-boys just Let out of school“Ah!" said the young man, “here she is. Miss Clark, this wsy>fc moment, please,” ca-.ching her by the arm and stopping her. “Aliovr me to introduce to you my friend, Mr.—(ahem) Smith.

The California Fralt Union hat adopted New Y’ork dispatch: News comes from London to tho effect that tho Duchess of Marlborough has directed tho trustees of the Hammcrslcy eatafil to s 11 some large slices of real estate In this city, which are among the estate** most valuable belongings. There Is some property on Broadway, near Franklin street, and a block running from Sixtyfirst to Sixty-second streets and Fifth and Madison avenues. The proceeds of these sales will of coarse not go to the duchess, as she is only entitled to an income from the es­ tate during her life. She has the power, however, to order the salesand have the avails reinvested, so that the revenues may increase. It Is said that thed tic boss has drawn $450,000 from tho estate since her marriage one year ago last July. A pood deal of tho estate's Imtme, It will bo remembered, accumulated during the time that the litigation over the will was in progress. This money has been used for putting Blenheim castle Into repair, and it has been fixed up with all, modern Improvements. Besides thlstlie town house hes been 'purchased and t magnificently furnished.

The natives of FIJI came cheerfully under British rule, but uotsothe few white renegades most of whom stole away to less at­ tractive islands when a civilized Gov­ ernment was established in Fiji. Travelers in the Pacific testify that the most worthless vagabonds among the islanders are the descendants of renegade whites, who long ago set up very large establishments here and there. Mr Romilly mentions one of these old settlers in Bbtumah. He had lived there forty years, and had become so thoroughly a native that he spoke English with the greatest diffi­ culty.

Suddenly a hand 1blaid upon her shoulder, and a voice says “huskily: “Beaut this Rose!” “Yea-why. It's you!" she ezcloims, ’gut ing at Uncle Aaron iu surprise. He stands there in the sunlight, his beard -and hair very white, bls gray eyes flashing with ex­ citement, his breath coming fast. "Ahbow do-you do!" she Bays; "are you wellf “Yea, thankee," stammers Uncle Aaron.

Buch wus Uncle Aaron's great uoui now. He saw tbe future joy both of bis boy and of this fair woman before him hanging in the balance, aud he felt that ho must save her. II is eyes burned, his face was flushed, ho walked erect like a king, aud luce u king he commanded: “Come, I want to talk with ye." Looking up at him in wonder, tor across his face shone a quivering light of strange sweetness. Rose stopped, hesitated a mo­ ment nnd then turned aud walked by his side.

"it’s a queer world, child, and I don't pretend to understand it; but there is one thing that 1 do know, aud 1 want ye to know it. The only happiness for ourselves is wbst we give U others.

Thea glanc­ ing up and seeing Uncl* Aaron’s great, but very human form, a trembling realization of what she had agreed to do came over her. “I’m afraid," she whispered. Uncle Aaron grasped tier haud still tighter and answered: “Ye need not be, cuiid. Jacob has loved ye all this time." Very humbly the beautiful bead dropped again and a penitence that wus complete filled her soul. They finally camo Into the town, and Rose aaui. gently; "Will you come to the Mansion House and wait for me!” ‘ No," said Uncle Aarou; T bave to do something for Matthew, ye know.

The clerk iu the small office looked in wonder at tbe old'pan who naked him to pen the message for him, saying, simply: “I can not write, will ye send it to him!" They had about two hours to wait before the boat would start, and this same clerk in about an hour's time came out of his office briskly hunting around with cousidcrable excitement for Uncle Aaron. "Ab! here you are. Here's an answer,” ho said. Landing it to him. "Read it, Rose/’ said Uncle Aaron. “I can make out print, but not letter writing.” Rose took it, looking very white, but one glance, after she had unfolded it, wa* enough. She gave a low cry and burst into tears. This astonished the brisk clerk very much, who, knowing what was in tho telegram, didn't see any thing in it to cry about. He stood wondering at her, until Uncle Aaron, taking the crumpled paper from her lingers, said to him: "Read it to me." “It says,” said tbe clerk, in a business­ like way: Thunk God; will meet you without fall.* Shall I get the lady a glass ot waler, sir!” "No, thank ye," answered Uncle Aaron, putting bls arm into that of Hose, uud te “1 have found out that all hearu nrc hun­ gry, ail lives lacks somewhat, and no one's days are quite as they would like them.

Uncle Aaron, a few feet up tbe board, atopfied still, gazing at them, hla great heart beating with joy. '•Come, come, get along you, can’t you!” said some one behind him. and then—per­ haps it was because he was blinded by his happy tears or because the careless crowd -jostled too roughly—but Unde Aaron's foot slipped from the gang-plank, be struggled, lost his balance, and fell into the water. In­ stantly a shout went up r,man overboard," with a ring of fear in it-that filled every heart. Rose, unclasped a second. before by Jacob, bad seen him fall. “Save him!

Whether it was his great afro and weight, or whether It wus Undo Aaron's unselfish impulse to help himself was not known -but he slipped and ugainsank. Jaoob immediately dived. By thm time a small boat had treen lot down. Jacob camo up again, his father in his hold.

But was ho saved! Tho cheering ceased, tty: crowd grew still; first with doubt and then with uwo struck certainty made dumb. Tbe boat was hauled up to lhe dock and the form of Uncle Aaron wus slowly lifted out. “Oh—hl not dead I” cried out a woman's voice with a lonely wall in it like tho cold, shivering sigh of tho wind on tho winter's night-“not dead!" The crowd trembled a moment in sympa­ thy und then stared as a beautiful woman knelt down by the dripping form and wept and cried in agony: "Oh-b! Noblest und best! Noblest and best! if it were not for me you might yet have been alive! Oh! it Is not right!

Daniel Coughlin, Arick O’SnHlvaiv and Martin Burka were hurried from tho jail to the-9 o'clock train on the Chicago & Alton road Tuesday evening, aud by 11 o’clock they had entered upon a life term of penal service to the State. The great trial was brought to an end Tuesday when Judge McConnell formally refused Coughlin, O'Sullivan and Burke a new trial, and sentenced them. In ac­ cordance with the finding of the jury tbat tried them, to life impris­ onment at hard labor. John Kunze, whom tho jury let off with a santenee of three years, was granted a new trial, but State's Attorney Longcnockcr fntl- DAXIEX* COUGHLIX. mated before leaving tbe 'court room that tbe ‘little Dutchman,” as ho has come to bo known, would shortly be re­ stored to his liberty. When Judgo McConnell reached the others he asked Coughlin if he had any­ thing to say why sentence snould not bo passed on him. Tho big ex-detoctive was on his feet in a moment. He direct­ ed his glittering little eyes straight at the court and skid in a firm voice; “Yer honor. I'm innocent. This crime was committed by persons I don’t know. I was convicted by perjury.” With a ner­ vous bow to the court to indicate that he had finished he reached across the pris­ oners’ row, seized John Kunze’s hand, nnd wrung it heartily. Tears of grati­ tude and joy sprang into tho little fel­ low’s eyes, and it was only after an effort that ho was able to avoid crying uut as he did the day the jury rendered its verdict. . O'Sullivan, looking grim and deter­ mined, was on his feet before Coughlin sank back ii hH chair. “I, too, yonr honor, am inribceet,” he said, “and I feel* that some day the world will know it. I have been con­ victed , by perjured PATRICE o'sryAVANtesUnrony. 1 am not here to ask for mercy. All I ask for Is Juztice. If I am Innocent of this* crime, I have not had justice; but if I am guilty, the State has not had Justice.” ' Martin Burke, with his long, heavf face glowing, his little eyes snapping, and his jaws working like an automatic machine, followed O’Sullivan. “I'm in­ nocent, too,” ho said. "In Englund I always knew they put perjured witnesses on the stand, but I never knew they dWL it in America.” When he said this Mar­ tin sat down, looking triumphant and happy. He seemed to fee! th2t he had unloaded a great mental buiden. A' minute later all throe were on their feet, listening to the solemn words of thecourt that consigned • them to a living­ death In the penitentiary. When they sat down again they were all pale and trembling. The ordeal was too much even for their superb nerve. Old man Coughlin, lhe sturdy father'of the chief conspirator, was sitting on one of the front benches, and in spite of hl in self tears came into his eyes as ho saw hls^ sot. inarched back to the jail for the last time. Kunze was brought back into court* and Lawyer Donahue made an effort to have' him released on ball. Forrest offered to sign a bond for Si,000, but Judge McConnell thought that $5,000 would not be too much. This, Forrest said, was too much for him, so Kunze had to go back to confinement, buoyed by Judge Longeneckcr's vague promise that iic may be liberated in a week.

A Washington dispatch of the 4th inst. •ays: The residence of Secretary of the Navy Tracy was destroyed by tire Mon­ day morning, and during the excitement that followed the breaking out of the blaxe Mrs. Tracy, her daughter Mary, and a French maid, Josephine Morrell, lost their lives, the Secretary himrftlf was almost overcome by smoke, and sev­ eral others h*d narrow escapes from death. The residence of the Secretary was a fine thrM-story structure of brick and atone and stood on I street, near Seven­ teenth. A letter carrier on his custom­ ary rounds passed the house In the morn? lug a few m nutca before 7 o clock. He left a package, and observing nothing .unusual routinued np the street. Hap: penlng to glance back ton mlnuU*S later he noticed that the house was enveloped in flames. Within five minute* tho fire­ men wen! there.

The ladies pnivcw! tn bn Mrs. Wilmerding, the married daughter of the Secretary, and her daughter. Miss Wilmerding. Mrs. Wil­ merding broke one of her wrists and was bruised.* Hit daughter wa* burned quite wverely. but not otherwise Injured. At tne rear of tho house a woman, .presumably one of the servants, had climbed out upon the mansard roof from a. third story window. She waved a blanket U> keep the smoke and flames away from her. and behaved with great coolness. She was brought down a lotlder In Lio meantime Fire Chief Parris 'ar­ rived. and learning that, there were people still in the house h’e left the fire extinguishing apjiaratus to his subor­ dinates and ditshed into the honse. fol­ lowed by Howard WHght. who drives the chief's wagon. The chief told the story to vour correspondent as follows: "1 paid no attention to the fire when 1 hoard there were people in the house. I felt my way through the smoke to the second floor and found a man in twd In a room. I'tried to pick him up, but he was almost to heavy, I managed tx> drag him Inta a bock rtxim where there was.inorc air. aijd jly>u L.bruke the win-' ddw'out and called to a tireman In the alloy to run up a ladder. •'Then we took the man out and it proved to.be the Secretary.

Thon I went back Into tho smoke again and found a young lady— Mis* Mary Tracy they tell me It was— and as I caught hold of her wrists to lift her up the flesh came off her burned hands. I got her out, but >iie was dead. That exhausted me. 1 could do no more ” E. S. Rheem. whose house on Seven* tconlh street runs back to the rear of the Nee rotary’* house, gives n graphic ac­ count of the terrible death of Mrs. Tra<v. ••I heard terrible screams." said Mr. Rheem. “about 7:15 o'clock this morn­ ing, and jum|H*d from bed and ran to the window. Mrs. Tracy was hanging by her hands from the Mil of a window on tho second floor. She was screaming, and almost I mined lately ' dropped to the ground." . Mrs. Tracy, still alive, was brought In by two firemen, and was placed on a sofa in a neighbor's house. Here she lingered for about an hour, fully conscious, and apparently suffering but little. It was a little after 8 o'clock when she spit up a little blood, hardly enough to be termed a hemorrhage, closed her eyes, and, without a moan erased to breathe. The unconscious Secretary, while these sud scenes wore, occurrtng, was borne to tlte-r^sidbuco'O* Judge Bancroft Davis, In an adjacent block. .^ifx-Surgron-Gcnoral Wales and Drs.

The doctors think that he Is not fatally Injured. Mrs. Wilmerding, who leaped from the second-story window, sustained slight Injuries: one of her wrists was broken, while her young daughter es­ caped with a slight contusion of the knee. . . The cause ot the fire Is unknown, but It probably originated In the furnace­ room. and it Is thought It smoldort-d a long time und thorouglily, filled every mon 1n the honse with smoke and gas. Secretary Tracy’s house, which was newly and magnificently furnished, was totally destroyed. The loss is estimated at 935.000. Soon after noon the President broke the news to Secretary Tracy of tho death of bis wife and daughter. Al­ though the greatest caution was ob­ served the effect of the blew was terrible and xhe Secretary almost suc­ cumbed. He rallied, however, and soon composed himself. He expressed the wish that be might also die. Secretary Tracy Is now reported to Im improving and his physicians believe him to be out of all danger. He continues drowsy, -with frequent waking mo­ ments. When he converse* with those around him he controls himself excel­ lently, but tears of anguish oyer the loss of hi* wife and daughter cannot be restrained. There has been nothing here since Garfield's assassination that has caused so much sorrow as this calamity.

The most dangerous sports of all re­ main to be considered—the boxing and the pancratium. Greek boxers were not content to use tho naked fists, but bonac their hand* and wrists with leatbei thongs.

The Greeks hud no means of taking tbe time of races at all accurately, and ran merely to see which competitor came in first, and not to bent records. Many instances of ven- long runs are recorded in Greek history, but these are. of coarse, tests of wind and endurance and not of speed. As the runner* won* no clothes it was impossible to distin­ guish them in any other way than by means of a herald, who proclaimed the name and city of each competitor as he advanced to the starting post.

The severe training for prize-Vinuiug became more and more exacting, and (ended to usurp an athlete's wools attention, to the exclusion of more libar-l culture.

Washington dispatch: Tho formal recognition of the United States of Brazil was completed at the executive mansion, when. Dr. Valente, the new minister accredited by the provisional government, and Mr. Mendonca, envoy ■*xtraordinary and minister plenipoten­ tiary, on s special mission to'thls coun­ try, called and presented lheir creden­ tials to President Harrison. The cere­ monies'took place in the blue*room and were marked by great cordiality. Dr. Valente, upon presenting his credentials, mode a short address, to whldh Presi­ dent Harrison replied as follows:' "Mr. Mixisrmt: I receive you as tho representative of a new republic— always a grateful duty, to the govern­ ment of the United States. The peace­ ful course of events that has trans­ formed the empire of Brazil into the United State* of Brazil has been observed with deep Interest by the gov­ ernment of this country. It Is a source of profound satisfaction to the Ameri­ can people that the provisional govern­ ment of the Brazilian republicans came Into power without bloodshed and with­ out violence. I trust this dircnmstance may prove a happy augury of peace, progress, and prosperity In the career which now opens to the United Slates of Brazil. Speaking for the people of this country, it will be my constant alm to cultivate the most friendly relations with your government; to Increase tho personal Intercourse and to enlarge the commercial exchanges between the two republics. I trust, Mr. Minister, -that you will find In this capital a pleasant residence, as I am sure you will receive a warm welcome." Mr. Mendonca th*en addressed the President anil to this the President re­ plied: ' “Mr. Minutkr: This government is happy to receive you on the special . mission with which you are Intrusted by the provisional government of the United States of Brazil, with the full rank of envoy extraordinary. The Secretory of State of the United States is appointed with full authority, to confer with you on special matters with which you are charged by your government. Yon will •be cordially received in the capital with all the courtesy due to your high rank." The recent decision of the United States Supreme Court, which makes necessary the refunding of several millions of dollars to the Importers who paid a duty of 50 per cent on silk rib­ bons Instead of 20 per cent, as they claim they should have paid, was based on the peculiar _ wording of the tariff act. The bill, which was passed for the purpose of changing this wording, has left the matter practically as It stood before. This morning Senators Aldrich and Morrill, members of the finance com­ mittee,that now has the bill under con­ sideration. called at the Treasury and talked over the matter with Secretary Windom. The result will be that the Senate committee will amend the bill so that all materials for hats not specially •‘numerated as assessable at 20 per cent will be required to pay duty of 50 per cent under the law. , Secretary Noble has denied the re­ port that he .was to be appointed United States circuit judge in the circuit made vacant by the promotion of Judge Brpwcr to tbo bench of the Supreme court. Secretary Noble Is undoubtedly sincere In hls denial. Nevertheless. It Is true that some time ago he was think­ ing seriously of accepting this place if It were offered him. While President Harrison determined last July to appoint ex-Senator Bruce, of Mississippi, to be recorder of deeds for the District of Columbia. Bruce has hist n-< elved' hls commission.

Their Country Annexed to th* I'nlted State*—Defying th* Colombian*. New York dispatch: The Indians of the Sun Blas coast have annexed them­ selves and their country to the United States. For many years these Indians have been supplied with merchandise tn exchange for cocoanuts by American traders. They have had Hjitle communi­ cation with the rest of Colombia and have lived under tribal rule, never ac­ knowledging the authority of the gov­ ernment at Bogota. The recent seizure of American ves­ sels laden with goods for them and the stoppage of trade with this country by the action of the Colombian gunboat La Popa exasperated them to tho highest degree. Several sons of chiefs of the larger tribes have been brought to this country and educated in American schools. When the Indians learned of the action of the Colombian government and the La I’opa they decided to become at once American citizens. Soon after­ ward the La i’opa appeared off the coast and a landing party was sent ashore. At once the Indians ran up the Amer­ ican flag aud the firing of a signal gun soon brought a large body of armed In­ dians to the spot. They were armed with machot knives and pistols, and completely surrounded the force sent ashore from the gunboat. The chief, stepping out before his men, delivered an address to the Columbian commander, in which he asserted that the San Bias Indians were Americans and would fight under the American flag. The forces from the gunboat were directed to return Immediately aboard the vessel or suffer the consequences. The Colombian commander had no al­ ternative. so he and hls men boarded tne vessel and steamed down the coast. A second landing was made and the In­ dians once more assembled in force and declared themselves Americans. They demanded the retnrn of the Colombian forces to the La Popa. The Colombians retired on board aud the La Popa sailed away.

No [UrkdMx connection of the WUsV day with any of the fer/'JT legends of saints of that name is found Bactorum,” but so it is, and long-estab­ lished usage has confirmed it* right to the title, though its observance is fast becoming a thing of the past. We have in our day no feast of St. Valentine, as did the merry people of ancient times in the old country. Jubi­ lant occasions for the youth of those days they must have been! 'llow the interest must have culminated in the drawing of tbe valentines, when to each partici­ pant in the game waa awarded by lot the name of some person of the op­ posite sex, who was then regarded as his or her valentine for the ensuing Suitable gifts, such as sweetmeats, bonbon-., trinkets and the like were in­ terchanged. and to each brave lad l>elongvd tho privilege of escorting hls fair valentine to the various gatherings, fes­ tivities and merry-makings which should intervene for a twelve-month. Certainly in those times 8t_ Valentine's Day held, favors not to be disregarded, and since human nature remains pretty much tho same the world over, it may be surmised that tho valentine drawing mast have been attended with consider­ able anxiety, and, perhaps, even a little harmless stratagem may have been re­ ported to in mating the valentines. Gone an? the old-time bachelors and maidens, the valentines of other days, but in memory of them still lingers tho pretty sentiment ot valentine gifts or favors, as witness tho thousand and one charming devices, valentines so-called, which begin to throng our shop win­ dows and counters soon after tho holi­ day season, replacing tho beautiful Christmas and New Year’s cards and leaflets. In these days when, a* -some one has satirically observed, referring to the almost universal erase for deco­ ration, "even our almanacs and calen­ dars arc works of art,” it is no wonder we -have valentines of tho very daintiest Sort and design. Tbe sending of the valentine is, of course, shrouded in< mystery, and this fact is often <llud<xl to in the Inscription, plcasant-f a c o d _ • young man, with a rather shrewd expression. Wo talked about tho weather, tho crops, politics, and finally we conversed about SL Valentino’s Day, which was not far off. "Do they celebrate it much here?" I asked. "As a general thing it is not observed very much, but last St. Valentine's Day wa* an exception." "What was the occasion of the ex­ ception? "I caused it myself. There was one man killed and a drug store wrecked.” My curiosity was aroused, and I asked my new acquaintance to dispel the mys­ tery that seemed to enshroud the cele­ bration of the previous SL Valentine's Daj. ‘‘I’ll tell you how it was. I had just moved here and started my paper. I was getting along very well. Sub­ scriptions were pouring in at the rate of ten or twelve a week.” "The people liked your paper, then?” "Yes, with the exception of two men. One was a druggist, who took a dislike to me, and tried to hound mo to death." "He not only refused to advertise in the Bugle, but he told every body that the paper .would not last three months." "Who Was your other adversary?” "He was a regular tough. Ho came here with a circus, and was a bad man. He looked like an ex-prtae-fighter. Some people said he was a New York aider­ man, and hence a fugitive from justice.” "What did you do to incur hls en­ mity?” "Nothing at all, except I published a little paragraph to tbe effect that there was a auspicious character in town. He said at once that it couldn't mean any­ body else but himself, end that he was going to break me In two fordt tbe first chance he got.” “Do you think ho really meant it?" "I know he did, so I resorted to strate­ gy. Every thing )* fair in love or war." "Where does St. Valentine's Day come in?” ■ "That’s just what I was going to tell you. I was becoming prematurely swaybacked toting a pistol, so .1 put up a job on tho pair. It was ri*ky, but out on the frontier you have to learn to take risks.” "What did you do?" •­ "1 bought a cheap valentine of a tough with • wart as big os an egg plant on his nose, and blue hair, and mailed it H« could have put a full-pn of the , Bugle for a year for ths j j window, with a compliment* ' notice thrown In?” 1 "Wbat did the tough do?" , tough grabbed up a box of heal­ ! ing ointmoat and shivered It on the ' lachrymal gland of the druggist. Tbe ’ druggist retaliated by doubling- up the tough with a .bottle of queer-colored tonic. According to the directions on tbe bottle the tonic was to be taken one teaspoonful' every half hour, but tho tough bad taken enough at on© doe© to tone up the stomach of an ordinary man for a month.” “What next?” “Th© tough followed up hls victory by vaccinating hl* adversary on tho ear with a box of carbolic salve, while the druggist raised a wen on th© tough’s arblcular nduclo with a bottle of fe­ male bitten.” “How did it end?” “It ended very tragically. While tho whole neighborhood was smelling like a drug store with a barrel of. aaafetida leaking in the cellar and a chunk of Limburger cheese on- tho stove, the druggist sneaked up behind tho tough and fractured his skull with a compound cathartic poultice tied up in a towel, and a fearful whack at tho bos© of tho street, lucmenotime.

SY BARJIAHA THOBXE. T i* often asserted by the opiranents .ot spiritualism that ?the occult science Jumi never Iweu of ^^HFTVJgS^in the detection of crime. One ease that came under any own observation, however, contro­ verts this statement. I have a morbid habit of imagining the crimes fhat cer­ tain persons of my acquaintance might commit, if given the temptation and •ppqrtunity. No doubt thia mental peculiarity of mind is due to my occu­ pation. that of a detective. . I had been sent to Paris upon busicesa connected with a bank robbery, aod^ having no charge upon my return voyage was at liberty to employ my leisure time in studying my fellow-pas•engere. . I was especially fascinated by a young husband and wife, of whom I could not learn much except that they were New-Yorkers and bore the name of Tracy. Though I never exchanged a dozen words with the lady, yet she won my deepest sympathy, from a certain wist­ ful expression of her beautiful ages—a look which I imagine often character­ izes a neglected wife. The gentleman was alwavs affable, and a general favorite’, still, I could not rid mvself of the conviction that be would help his gentle, delicate wife oat of the world if he had any power­ ful incentive to the crime. European vovages were rather longer — those days than they are now. Ours was at first a prosperous one. The jgood ship sped on, through bright days •and atarry nights, until we were near­ ing New York; then a fierce storm drove us out of our course, and for a week most of our passengers were too aick to care whether we ever reached our destination or not. Then the gale abated, and we resumed our occupa­ tions. Mr. and Mrs. Tracy did not appear, “however, and I was shocked and star­ . tied to learn that the lady had died during the storm, supposedly from heart disease, aggravated by sea sickohms, and her body had been consigned •to the watery deep. The funeral had been hurried, in compliance with the demands of superstitious sailors, who in wme way learned of Mm. 1 racy’s death, and insisted that a corpse bn board would sink the ship. Of course the explanation of the lady’s sudden death seemed reasonable enough to everybody except myself. Grave suspicions, haunted uie that the poor, sad-faced little wife had been ioully murdered, without a hand hav­ ing been raised either to help or •avenge her. 1 But I kept my own counsel, for if a -crime had been committed all evi•denee* of it had been swallowed up 4>y the sea, and bringing the guilt -home would be a ho^x?less undertaking. -8o I tried to dismiss the affair from tawr mind: but at night, in my state­ room, a pair of soft, dark eyes' seemed haunt me, pleading for help. I had • no opportunity to see the widower, for i'ho remained constantly alone in his wtate-room, evidently in too deep aftlic«tioB to come among us. We arrived in New York two weeks '■behind time, and I found a great deal of business waiting for me at the Bu­ reau. My attention waa occupied bv a hundred new cases, still I was often lhaunted by Mrs. Tracy’s sad eyes, and •the dm suspicions would arise as to the •causes that led to her mysterious death This was a case in which I had mentrfly volunteered my services, vet so tar could see “no" thoroughfare" to the end desired. And now, trtTangelv «nough, I frequently encountered Mr. Tracy, the widower, in my wander­ ings, and I occasionally devoted some of my leisure time to shadowing him, •o that I became pretty well acquaint­ ed with hie mode of life, which was not wt all that of & sorrow-stricken man: it wa*. in fact, a decidedly gay career an which he was indulging. Time rolled on, until it was nearly a .-year since my rcturnfrom Europe, and with all mv experience not a ghost of •a plan for bringing the gay widower to justice had one presented itself to my onind. In thia emergency I one even­ ing confided the story to my sister Rose, whose quick intuition had often thrown light upon some obscure point Jin cases 1 was studving. She was interested at once, and after •a little reflection said : “If yon will contrive some way to bring tliat man here a few times in a —rial way.

We were not alone. The phantom­ like figure of -a woman stood by a win­ dow. apparently gazing out into the radiant uight. She slowly turned at our approach, and we stood face to face with the gtidat of the ’ murdered wife. For a time I could never tell ho v long dead silence reigned. Then these words were pronounced in a chilling tone that seemed like an echo from the tomb: . uThe sea give* up it» dead!" My companion sank ujxjd his knees in pitiful, abject terror. “Oh, Gene­ vieve. forgive, forgive me!" he cried. “My God, I have suffered—how I have suffered!

When the villain had somewhat recovered, and become aware of all that he had betrzyed, he tried in a confused wst to account for his exclamation, but I was no» disposed to lose the advantage so gained, ami so affected to jtoasess absolute proof of his crime.

It was a fairly good joke, but it happened that a member of the family, who wasn’t very good at orthography, took thia entry for the name of a book. and. hav­ ing a partiality for the young man, started off on a’tour through the book­ stores in .search of it.

Presently the Eastern train was about due aud Joe, :a his bland, urbane wanner, advanced to the center of the room and in a silver-toned tenor voice, sang out “All aboard for Plattsmouth, Pacific Junction, Red Oak, Burlington, Peoria, Chicago and aU pointe east. Passengers will now pass out to the cars and secure their seats, as the train leaves in fifteen minutes.” Joe started to retreat when Miss Smith, in an enraptured tone, ap­ proached him and exclaimed: “Oh, yon dear, lovely man!

The Speaker—The rule* that govern parliamentary assemblies, and those rules distinctly declare that a motion to adjourn Is not debatable, of which tbe gentleman is perfectly aware. The motion to adjourn was low—Yeas, 125; nays. 162, and the question recur­ ring on the demand for the previous ques­ tion, tho yeas and nay* were ordered. The Democrats again pursued their policy of not voting, and the Speaker .once mon- pursued his mdhod'of Jotting down the names of member* present add not voting. * The vote having been taken, tho Speaker directed the clerk to enter on the journal the names of several mem­ bers present but not voting.

The Speaker then declared the de­ mand for tho previous question carried —yeas. 160; nays, 0: amid the loud pro­ tests of the Democrats. The Speaker—The previous question Is ordered and the question Is on tbe ap­ proval of the Journal. Mr. Bynum of Indiana moved to ad­ journ, but the Speaker declined to rec­ ognize him and again put the motion on the approval of the Journal. Mr. Bland demanded the yeas and nays (which wore •rdered). and pending this moved to adjourn. But the Speaker was deaf to this mofion. which called forth the declaration frofa Mr. Springer that this was tyranny simple and unadulterated, and the further declaration from Mr. Bland that It was an outrage, and that the House could not to In a more demor­ alized condition than tho Speaker. An­ other storm swfept over the House as Mr. Bynum attacked the Speaker, his words calling forth cheer after cheer from the Democrat*. Mr. Bynum walked down the aisle and. taking a position close to the front of the Speaker’s Jesko demanded re­ cognition. The Speaker using his gavel vigorously, pronounced hlmoutof order. Mr. Bynum replied that he was In order and said. ••I propose to stand here and say what I have to say in regard to this action.

During this speech the greatest excite­ ment prevailed, and it was some lime be­ fore quiet was restored. The Speaker refuted to entertain Mr, Springer’s motion to adjourn, and stated that he would not recognize even parlia­ mentary motions if used with a view to obstruct House business. Mr. Springer appealed from the decision and demand­ ed to be hoard, but Mr. McKinley was recognized to move to table the appeal. Mr. Springer protested wildly and was seconded by the entire Democratic side. A tremendous uproar ensued. Mr. Perkins, of Kansas, taunted tbe Democrats with disgraceful conduct, and a number of Democrats responded In kind. The Speaker directed the roil to be called and the clerk proceeded to do so. Mr. Springer meanwhile denounc­ ing the Speaker's action and continuing to shout his remonstrance and defiance as the roll-call proceeded.

Tho Democrats again refrained from voting, but the Speaker, glancing over the Democratic side, now and then checked off a member whose name was ! called and who refused to respond. The vote resulted—yeas. 163; nays, 0, and tbe Speaker's decision was sustained. Again the Speaker t efused to allow Mr. Springer to put a motion to adjourn and Mr. Dalzell wa* .recognized to call up the election case.

Intend­ ing to protest against the placing of hls name on record Wednesday Wednewlav by tho Mr. Butterworth, taking the floor, said that the prujrosition of the Ilemocrais was untenable. Their position was that a member was Responsible only to himwlf and hls constituents as to wheth­ er-he should vote or not vote. Such a doctrine was well enough In the days when members were regarded as am­ bassadors from the States, “but it won’t do iu January, 1890.” It was absurd to hold that members who sat on the floor of the House drawing$10 or $12 per day were not participating, or that mem­ bers could be bodily present and legis­ latively absent He cited a similar case in Kentucky, where a Democratic otScer had rtilid In the same manner that Speaker Reed Is now ruling. Here a member on th? Democratic side asked Mr. Butterworth If It were cer­ tain that the presiding officer of the Senate of Kentucky counted the Sena­ tors who were present but did not vote In order to make up a quorum. Mr, Butterworth referred to Mr. Wilson, of Kentucky, who, answering the Inquiry, said that in 1886, while be had the honor of being a member of the Kentucky Senate, “and It Is always an honor to be a member of the Kentucky Senate,” the precise question arose there and had been decided by & Democratic, presiding officer exactly as Speaker Reed Is now holding and the bill so passed had been signed by Gov. Knott, a dis­ tinguished constitutional lawyer, who was perfectly famllar with the manner tn which the bill was passed.

Oh, do; why, I bought this horae two years ago.” “You did?" answered the other “well, I lost my horae—it was stolen— just two years ago." The conversation took place undei the far-«preading oaks of au old-time plantation home. A planter was sur­ prised to see bis horse return horn* after two years, and ridden by a gentle­ man wlio' evidently had' bought the horse in good faith. After some con­ versation the old owner of the horse, with much earnestness, raid: “Well, air, if you will dismount, unsaddle the horse, aud he don’t go to the fence, take the liars down, walk to tho well, and if he don't find water in the bucket let it down tha well, and then walk off to hi* old stable, I will give up, and that horse isn’t mine I” “At your word: the horse is vours if he does all that," cried the viiutor, and, leaping from the horse, unsaddled it. What was his astonishment when the horse went straight to the fence, letdown the bars, . crossed over, went to the well, and. finding no water, let the bucket down, and then, aa though he had left home but yesterday, walked to the old sta­ ble. The animal rememliered the trick, and the owner recovered his horse. There are those living now who can attest to the truth of this story, though it happened years ago. —St. Louts Globe-Democrat. Asleep in a Churchyard. An old man who sleeps by the road­ side yonder, and upon whose tomb are the familiar lines beginning, “Remem­ ber mo as yon paks by," spent the greater portion of the last ten years of hi* life by his wife’s grave. He came in the early morning, and after remov­ ing any microscopic weed that might have showed itself since the previous evening, would light hia pipe and sol­ emnly contemplate the stones in his vicinity. He went sway regularly to his meal*, and as regularly took his afternoon nap on the grass by the graveside. Shortly before his last visit to the cherished spot be requested mo to de­ cipher for him tho dates upon several of the gravestones, and we conversed about many whom we had known in marked that the churchyard was a very pretty place, and his face lighted up an he’rejoined: “Ah, mister, 1 always thought I should like to bp buried here, for," looking around, “you see there’s such a splendid v iow from here." This was uttered in good faith, and the old man seemed convinced that neither coffin lid nor churchyard clods would obstruct his view. Perhaps they don’t. Ln a few brief weeks he came to his favorite haunts to stay. “Poor old William," the flowers upon your grave have run wild long ago, and no one seems to remember you as they pasft by. —-Chambers' Journal. Stamps He Didn’t Have. He was a stamp fiend, ^oung and irecociouM. The plain American stamp greatest Tbe awa. features in one should iug a collection of foreign ones, and so when they sent him down to the post­ office for a package he did not pay mneh attention, but brought it home and handed it over and skipped out to play tag. Next day they showed him s new sister who had arrived. He looked at her with some curiosity. “Bay, where did she come from ?" "Oh, from heaven." “From heaven ' Was that the pack­ age I brought fiom tbe poetoffioe ye«terday. and I never knowed anything aix>nt it?"

The Duke arrived In Parisian: week hearing a letter signed by the Count of Paris announcing to the faithful abd all others the CountU renunciat ion, of all claim to the throne of France. . Ik also had with him a' manifesto addressed to the people of France. Nominally, and according to the theory of pretenders, a pretender Is alway/a King, and therefore the Count of Paris sbdientes the throne he never poMgSsed. Ho consequently abdicates his claim* as a pretender, and In virtue of this abdication all -hl.s claims, rights, nod title* ditarend to his eldest sun. the gentleman qpw in the hands^of the authorliie*. Philippe Ixmls Robert, Duke of Orleans. The gentleman, therefore, is not merely one of mftny vagrant princes, but the actual pretender to the throne In virtue ot- his claims as the heir of l^ouis Philippe and also as the heir of the old Bourbon line. His coming Into the country In violation of the law ban­ ishing all the heads and direct heirs of reigning families. Is a rash escapade, even If it stands alone. The fact that he was equipped with an appeal to the nation shows his intentions and may make the escapade serious for him. If it should be developed that this movement Is made in virtue of an under­ standing with the partisans of the mon­ archy in France II may be more than a more, violation of the law of expulsion. There Is some reason to btdleye t hat the movement Is made In concert with the more determined opponents of the re­ public, as the Duke repaired immediate­ ly to house of thu Duke of Luyres. the present head of a family that fans al­ ways adhered uncompromisingly to the old monarchy. In that house the yonng gentleman was King of France* In theory—the descendant of Henry IV., and not merely the descendant of Louis Philllppe. On the day before Feb. »»the Duke of Orleans attained the ago of 21. for be was born on Feb. n. 186l». The abdica­ tion of his father, the manifesto, and the movement were all apparently planned with regard to that date and In order to electrify Franco with the de­ monstration that the fortune.* of the monarchy wore now In new hands: that the crown now bchuuroil on the head of a chevalier who would dare someching for it and not fold his hands In a quiet corner like anotheri'hambord The government was not caught nap­ ping. however. It was promptly in­ formed of the presence of the Duke in The Paris, and of his whereabout*. Duke wx* In France in violation of the law made purposely for excluding bl* father and himself x* enemies of the republic. Therefore the Duke Orleans was at once arrested at the house of the Duke of Luvres. He taken to t.iv pre ecttire ot police, where, his Identity was fixed beyond all doubt, and where process verbal of hi« violation of the law of banishment was drawn up. Ho was then detained at the conclergerio. On the same day he was arraigned be­ fore the military authorities at t.v’ cen­ tral bureau. In response to the inquiry as to the objects and purposes of his visit to France, be said that, having at­ tained his majority, he had come to France to place himself at the disposal of the military authorities. This dash of audacity Is regarded as a very happy strokc, and L* sure to make friend* for him. for a gallant French boy who wants to take his chance for conscription !n a somewhat unusual and captivating figure to appear In the dally news. But this did not touch th<* sensi­ bilities of the hard-hearu d authorities, and M. eonsCdnce, the minister of the Interior, ordered that the Duke be held In custody. Further disposition of the base of courso depends whether it Is dis­ covered that there wx* any plot for a general royalist movement behind this incident. Tffe monarchist member* ot the cham­ ber of deputies have derided to Inter­ pellate the government as to Its reason for Imprisoning the Duke. Tbe RepubllquryFrancalM!, in commenting on the arrest of the Duke, points cut taut tbe expulsion law imooses a penalty of from two to five years' imprisonment upon the head or direct heir of any family •hat has reigned in France who violates Its provisions. Al a meeting of the cabinet it was de­ cided .to strictly enforce the provisions of the expulsion law In the ease of the ' young Duke. Committed Suicide Too Haattly. Helena (Moot.) dispatch: F. C.

The mind must perceive its rights before it will draws sword. And then.drawing the sword is a perilous resort, l>ecause the venerable institution of Kings is often too great for young justice to overthrow. Washington was destined to bring to his task of fighting for what tho orators had found a temperament which made his defeat almoat impossible. He was the embodiment of wisdom, of patience and of endurance—•qualities which fitted him to lead ragged troops against tho sol­ diers of a King and to lead thorn for seven long years.

Soon after tho battle of Bunker Hill. John Adams, Franklin, Rush and Washington were holding an Informal council to confer over a situation which seemed each day to bo growing more terrible. At this meeting Franklin is said to have asked the question which reappeared intsai on tho lips of Horace’ Greeley: “What is to be the end of this war?" “Is it to obtain Justice from England or ia it to effect a change of Ministry? of is it to soften a tax?" Be­ fore tho inquiry had gone far Thomas Paine entered the room, and, before bo bad been long in the council, ho said: “These States of America must be in­ dependent of England." The little group was amazed and alarmed, but rumor has it that Wash-' ington begged Paine to publish those views to the country. This event took place in the November or |)ecember be­ fore the {Declaration of independence. Thus Washington, the soldier, was carried along by a group of deep think­ ers, and if the “pen was mightier than the sword” it was so because it told the sword when and where to strike. Ono. thing is most certain, that all thoao.' pens, from thotof John Milton to that of Burke and Jefferson, combined to give, the sword of Washington its long-last-. Ing-power.

To protect themselves the settlers hod built Fort Henry, which was erected on tbe right bank of the Ohio, a short distance above Wheeling Creek. The entire fighting force of tbe village, in­ cluding the garr&un of the fort, con­ sisted al but forty-two men. Among that number, however, were many whose deeds of powess and skill with the rifle had made them terrors to the Indians. In the latter part pt Sep­ tember tbe settlement was attacked by four hundred warriors and the rillng’ers were compelled to flee to the fort for protection. Dri ven to desperation by tho right of tho.r homes being de­ stroyed bv the ravages, they ma^e an ill-advised sortie, iu which they were all but overcome, snd only sixteen men lived to return to the fort and defend it and the helploss women and chil­ dren within its walls against more than four hundred savage redskins. The history of those days within the fort is a record of deeds of daring and personal heroism, one of which is un­ paralleled in ancient or modern times; a feat beside which General Putnam’s performance at “Horse’s Neck" sinks into insignificance, and which, had it occurred at a later day and been performed by a man of more prom­ inent position in life, would have fur­ nished a theme for many a pen and pencil­ In their distress the garrison sent messengers to the nearest settlements.

A story which has a significance foi every intelligent reader comes to us from Switzerland. A yonng mechanic named Favre, who lived at Neuchutel, gradually became dissipated in bis hab­ it* and deserted his wife and child. After he had been gone for two years his wife.wholoved hitu tenderly, dream­ ed oue night that she heard him call her. She rose and went to the window, from whence she saw him. a« she lielieved, standing in the moonlight on the street. The figure vanished as she looked at iL The good people of Neucha'el as sured her that this appearance had been made at the instance of his death. When, therefore, a mouth later, *he hoard that n man, answering in deacriptioa to M. Favre, had been killed on tne night of her dream by a poising train at Basle, she was convinced that it was her husband, and that he had come in the s{ irit to bid her a last farewell. • She made herwav on foot to Basle, reached the town in the evening, and induced the authorities to open the grave. When the coffin was reached the sujierstitions laborers left her alone. By the light of a lamp the poor woman thought she identified her husband. She wax carried back ill and ex­ hausted to her home. The whole fam­ ily went into mourning, while tlie vil­ lage shuddered with sympathy and su­ perstitious horrors. A few days later M. Favre, sober, healthy, and smiling, walked into tbe town, announcing that he had found woAt, and was.ready aud able to .take care of his family.

About thirty years ago, says the Youth’s Companion, a yonng girl in a Weatern city was given charge of a • SnndAy-school claax of" rough boy*, uxually known as “river rata," who had never been in any school before. When she entered the room she found them lounging on the desk and benches, wearing their hats, puffing vile cigars, a defiant leer on every face. They greeted her with a loud laugh, and one of them exclaimed: “WdU, sis, you goin’ to teach us?" 8Ke stood silent until the laugh was over and then xaid quietly: “Do I look like a lady?" An BHtoni&hed stare was the only reply they gave. ^Because," ahe continued, gently, “gnllemeu, when a lady enters the room, take ofF their hats and throw away their cigars." The lowest American secretly be- ' lievex himself to be a gentleman, and in a moment every hat wax off and'the lads were ranged in orderly attention. h’o remarkable was the xuccesx of the girl in managing and influencing nften of the roughest fort that she made it the work of her life. She es­ tablished clean and respectable board­ ing house i for xailorx and boatmen, and reading aud coffee rooms for labor­ ers. and founded an order of honor, the member*of which strove to lead sober, Christian lives themselves and to help their fellows to do the name. “Hi! Hi! Hi!" shouted Luke Moore, as his yoke of, calves. Scott and Mac, aped on over the hard wood-road with their load of beech limbs on the little sled. How they kicked up their heels nnd pranced and shook their heads in the brisk winter air! Luke could Dot keep up with their, nimble feet, and grasped the yoke as they galloped on down the hill, waving- his goad before their noses to stop their mad career, for not far ahead, at the foot of the next hill, was another little team with its load. But there was something the matter with that. It stood stock-still. I’erhaps it was stopping to take breathBut Mac’s head was up for a race, aud Scott's tail stood in the air. Puff—puff! “Outof the road there!" again shouted Luke, leaning on be>ide his naughty runaways. “Don’t be—a— pi-i-i-g!" ' “But Jo-a:m won't go! She’s laid down again!" shouted Lena back to the on-coming teamster. Just then there wax a'crash. Tho two teams had come together. Tho sled lay down, the wood flew into tho air, auil in half a wink awav wont Scotfr and Mac across the snowy fields towaid .­ the barn. Fc.tred half to'death at tho ‘ racket they had made, and bawling with all their might. “Huh! ’ForeI’d have such a steer » as that!" sneered Luke. “Ain’t worth ‘ a row o’ pins—to lie down at the foot of * every hill." “Hut she aint a steer at all. Luka, s Moore!" protested Lena, in defense of her naughty Jo-ann. who lay content-ealy chewing her cud, and seemed to­ be thinking instead of helping her mate pull the load to the top of the lull. Luke jerked her by the guiding-rppetied to her stubby horn, and Lenacuffed her ears—not very hard, though: —but Jo-ann shut up her big eye* and kept right on chewing. She had had cracked corn and clover hay for break­ fast, and it made tine cuds. She liked it better than pulling a heavy sled up hill. Besides, it wasn't her business to drag loads. She would grow to be & cow Rome day and give white, sweet" milk for the babies to drink and tho grandmas to sip in their tea. I don’t know ax that wax what Jo-ann thought, but she looked verywise and would not budge an inch, with all their pulling and cuffing. What was to be done? Scott and Mac had fled out of sight. It was al­ most dinner time, and Luke and Leu* were hungry. But they could ‘ not leave Bet and Jo-ann to come on when Jo-ann got ready, for they might get into trouble. Luke was all out of patience, and propoxed snapping a stout slick’onto her tail, but Lena would not hear of it. Just then something bumjied against Lena’s knee. It wax a big French sweeting in her pocket, which she had taken to the woods for loach. 7 Luke dabbed it against Jo-ann’s nose. That brought her to her feet, and out whipped her long tongue to seize it. But not a taste would they let her have. Luke went ahead and held the sweeting about two inches from her nose all the way up the hill, and she hod helped Bet poll the load up to the to*before she knew it. How Luke and Lena laughed at naughty little Jo-ann! They had * mind to give the big sweeting to Bet, but Jo-ann looked m> penitent that they forgave her and gave her half?

There were fully three thousand persons In the throng, comprising a portion of the overflow frtAn Oklahoma, a largo num­ tier of New Englanders and about 500 South Dakotans, principally residents of this city.

Tessin drawn up In line. They were Informed that, ns the military authorities hud not received orders to allow settlers to enter the reservation none would be allowed there. This wa’ a sore disappointment, but It was useless to parley. Col. Tossln would not recede from his position. Two miles down the river from Fort Pierre several hundred boomers crossed the river.

Hot* Henry Matthew*, secretary of stole for hom» affairs. ' Tho report of the commission occupies 102 pages." Each member of the House against whom charges were made I* treated separately. The judges -find that the speeches made by many'of the I’arnelllic members were intruded to bring about the separation of Ireland from England, and that the speeches of others, in view of the state of the coun­ try, were calculated to foment crime, as the speakers must have known. It I* proved, the report says, that Messrs. Davitt. Harris, Dillon. W. E. O'Brien, W. Redmond, O'Connor. Con­ don and O'Kelly conspired lo bring about -.he absolute separation of Ireland from Great Britain. The fac simile Parnell letter was a forgery. The defendants worn sincere, in de­ nouncing the PharnU park murders. The defendants did Incite Intimida­ tion and invited tho assistance of Eprrf. Mr. Parnell Is exonerated from tho charge of assisting Byrne to escape. It Is not true that Mr. Parnell wa* In­ timate with leading invincible*. Mr. Davitt was closely associated with the party of violence In America. The report further says: It Is not proved that the defendants subscribed toward tho assistance of or were Intimately associated with notori­ ous criminals of paid money to procure their escape from justice. It is not proved that tho defendant! w^rc aware that the Clan-na-Gael con­ trolled the American league or collected money for the Parliamentary fund. Il I* not proved that at the time of the Kllmainham negotatlon Mr. Parnell was aware that Sheridan and Boyton were organizing their outrages. The Invlncibles were not a branch of the Land league. The league neither organized nor paid the Invincible#. None of th* defendants directly or Indi­ rectly had knowledge of tho Phcenlx park conspiracy. Piggott was utterly unworlhv of credit All the letters be produced as criminating were forgeries. On the other hand the judges say:. The league never gave the authorities any assistance in the detection ot crime. No details are given of the expendi­ ture of £100,000 of the league funds. There Is no valid excuse for the uonprodaction of its book*.. - The commission has not received from Mr. Parnell or the league the assistance It expected. The report is signed by all the judge*. The report Is more moderate and im­ partial than was expected, and conse­ quently gives satisfaction to nobody except the judges, who are relieved to get It off their hands. A HALF-MILLION BLAZE A Big ManuTncttirinjf Block in Chicago , Darned. Chicago dispatch: Thick concrete fire walls prevented a *10.000,003 fire in the ImmniM' building known as the Farwell ,b ock, occupying the entlr* space be­ tween Adams and Manrce streets and tho river and Market street. Five minutes before 7 o’clock a mercur­ ial alarm located in the sixth story of the building, on the Adams street slue, gave the first intelligence of the blaze. A second alarm brought to the spot thirtytwo steamers, seven trucks, and as many chemical engines, beside* two fireboats. Work Bro*., manufacturers of cloth­ ing and uniforms, occupied nearly all of the gutted portion of tho block, extend­ ing sixty-six feet on Market street and 175 on Adams, and being six stories in height. Taylor Bros., hat and cap fac­ tory, run in connection with tho Work Bros.' plant, occupied the third floor. Ttendal A Co., dry goods and notions. In the basement, lost heavily on their stock, which is almost to telly destroyed by water Smoke thick enough to cut filled all streets in the vicinity of the fire, and a i crushing, strnggling, and anxious crowd of people, who stopped on their way to work, gave Capt. Lewis and his squad* of police (denty of work. Thousand* of gallons of water literally drowned the fire out. Mr. J, Work says his concern had about $335,000 worth of stock and Taylor Bros. 850,000. This is fully cov­ ered br Insurance. The block was built In separate risks, each divided -by thick concrete walls, making it almost impos­ sible for a fire to spread. The burped portion Is one risk, and is valued at oneninth of tho whole cost of the building, or $100,000. M. GimtM- & Sons, occupying the next portion north of the burned section, suffered no loss. A rumor was set afloat while the fire was raging, to the effect that an old man who opens up the building bad per­ ished In the flames. This was denied by tho Pinkerton watchman, who made his last “pull” just as the tire wa* discov­ ered. By 8:30 o'clock the fire was under control. As-near as can be learned the blaze originated In the pressing department, when1 perhaps an overheated steam coil ignlte-l some old rags. C. Mi Hender­ son’s l)oot and shoe building, on tho northeast corner of Adams and Market streets, reetdved frequent drenching*, and a great many window* were cracked. A careful estimate of th**loss made after the fire was under control places the total damage at $48A,OOO. Thk distillery plant of J. B.

A noon-mark, it may be mentioned, is a species of dial enabling the woman at the faim to know when the noon hour comes around that the horn may be blown for dinner. The young sur­ veyor responded that he could make a noon-mark, and proceeded forthwith to • do so. When the work was comple’ed the old lady asked him how much he would charge for it, aud he told her stfventy-five cents.

Christmas day I was taken the same as I was seven­ teen years ago—perfectly helpless. I was visiting at Battle Creek at the t ime and my friends induced me to try Dr. A. S. Johnson s Therapeutic Cab­ inet Bath treatment. My frlendk car­ ried me to and from the office three times. After three baths 1 walked without a cane or crutches. I took nine baths and am now as well as I ever was. I not only believe, but I know that the above treatment will cure all diseases that it is advertised to cure. R. G. Quick. The following is from James M. Pow­ ers, a prominent attorney of Eaton county, residing at Bellevue: * “During the month of April last I was taken with paralysis, which was pronounced by the best physicians in the vicinity to be acuft ascending par­ alysis and incurable. I had the best <>Y medicine, attendance and care and while the physicians succeeded in ar­ resting tile proirresk Of the disease, they woidd bold out no hopes of re­ covery. I commenced treatment with Dr. Johnson about the 20th of Sep­ tember ind at that time was almost entirely helpleis and had to be lifted out of and into bed. After two weeks treatment 1 was able to walkabout on .crutches, and- in five weeks could walk without crutches or cane and am now so far recovered as to be able to resume the practice of law.

Rlligrass, ribwort. English plaintain, narrow-leaved plaintaln, or buckhorn plaintain has a perninal root, a rosette of narrow leaves six ten inches long, acute at each end, and angled flower stalk one to two feet high, bear­ ing a cylindrical spike of flowers. The shining seeds are brown, oblong, con­ cave on one side, convex on the other. It is a native of Europe, but has l.«een extensively naturalized, especially in lawnsand thin old pastures. Nearly all kinds of stock eat the plaintain freely, especially while it is young, and it is not unfrequently recommend­ ed as one of the ingredients for per­ manent pasture in Great Britain, but as it becomes older, stock leave the plaintain to go to need. .The leaves usually spread close to the ground like those of a dandelion and thus ex­ clude other plants. 'The stalks are slender, without leaves, and afford lit­ tle fodder. Careful farmers who get this notice will do a favor by caliipg the attention of their neighbors to the subject and help keep ribgrass out of their fields. SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION.

Washington dispatch: The Senate special committee on Pacific railroads, after .many hearings, thorough invest^ gallon, and careful consideration, ha* finally accepted the report of Senator Frye on the Union Pacific and that of Senator Davis on the Central Paclfic.and has agreed on a bill providing for a re­ funding of their debt*. The report on the Union Pacific reaches the conclusions that there la no evidence of any purpose on the part of tho company to surrender that portion of Its road over which the government has a statutory Hen; on the contrary there Is every reason tending to satisfy •any candid person that no such purpose exists, that this Is a.capable, well man­ aged road, abundantly able to pay Its debts, requiring only, like any other railroad, time In which to pay; that the Interests of. the government and of the railway company will be promoted by a settlement, and that one can be made now under which every dollar of the government debt with Interest will be paid. The report on the Central Pacific finds that the United State* has for security a statutory Hen on a road commencing at a point five miles west of Ogdon and ex­ tending to San Jose, without terminal 'adlitlcs.at either end, made subject to a mortgage to secure bonds equal In amount to the original Indebtedness of the United States Thnt the present Security of the United States upon this property Is entirely inadequate: that a foreclosure of the first mortgage would substantially exhaust. In satltfactlon thereof, the entire property; that it would be Inexpedient for the United Slates to nxlcom it fiotn said first mort­ gage or to become the owner of the property through redemption and fore­ closure. The report fiyids that U |s expedient, necessary, and practicable to adjust and further secure the Indebtuoss to tho United States upon the extended time at * reduced rate of interest within the ability of the company to pay, upon such terms as to lulvance the develop­ ment of the country through which the roads pass nnd afford the Inhabitants thereof reasonable rates of transportation for passengers and freight. From the rejk-rt it appears that I lie Central Pacific has not an ability to pay at all equal to that of the Union Pacific, but under the terms of the bill to be re­ ported can make final and full payment reasonably certain.

LITTLE ROBBIE’S NERVE ’ N tho fall of 1873 mv business call.ed me--into the Spine regions of the State of Michigan. I had recently secured a patent of great value in tho fell­ ing of heavy tim- troducing it among the log­ ging camps and _ saw mills. .In this I was meeting with decided •success, and was making money at a rate I had not, in my wildest drcams, ■anticipated. I wbh a widower, aud. ns will readily be believed, was devotedly attached to my only child, nn active und unusually bright boy of eight years. A father— •particularly a doting one, as I admit myself to have been—is apt to exag­ gerate the abilities and attainments of ■his children, aud I well know that tlio first branch of my statement will be ■given greater credence than the list. I will not atop to argue the matter with the incredulous reader, but nro•eed to relate the story upon which I I have already mode a beginning, confi•dent that if will convince tlie most ■skeptical of the quick wit and nerve of any little Robbie. I had brought him with me to Mich­ igan, and left him at school in East Saginaw while I conducted my profiteblo canvass among the pineries. Late an November tho friend with whom I had left him wrote me that he hod be-oomo exceediuglv lonesome, and could «ot apply himself to his studies. It required no great evidence to conwinco me of the truth of the report, for a month's separation from my boy Lad brought me to a similar state of mind. The letter decided me upon a course that for tome days I had been considering—a foolish course any man in full possession of his faculties would have said. I directed that Robbie be •ent forward to me in the vast pine woods. Three days later he joined me, hav­ ing been placed in charge of a kind -bearted Inmlterman, who delivered him safe enough, though with but little ap­ petite for tho sweetmeats I had pro­ waded in honor of his advent. But I he ripened harvest of dollar* •waited my sickle, and not even the pleasure of playing with my boy could detain me from business. 1 had worked all the camps iu that -section, and decided to start the next morning for a j>oint on the river, some ’twenty miles away, where I was confi­ dent of disposing of a number of ma­ chines. I was to make the journey on horse­ back, Robbie riding behind me. We 'had mounted, said good-bv to our new but none the less warm friends, when •a old skidder came running towa rd “Don’t start to-day!” cried he, when ■within speaking distance. “Why not?" I a-ked. • ’Cause we’re goin’ to have a storm, ■am’it’s a long an’ lonely stretch you've gpt before yon." ’ “I see no indications of it.” “You would, if you’d been waitin’, •s I have, u fortnight for enow to start th«- sleds, ho that you coaid earn the grab you was a-eatin*.

Wert. fiustie along, an’ don't waste file a-talkiu* to me.” The old man had judged me rightly; T did design to go, seeing nothing por­ tentous of evil. Accordingly, I acted ■upon b*s suggestion, and rode away path through a wildernee* of stumps} and underbrush, and we made good progress. At length we reached a j point where wa were obliged to make a turn, and strike into the heavy tim­ ber, through which the remainder of our journey lay, A railroad line had been projected here eome year* before, nnd alpindontKi. after the timber on the course had been felled, a telegraph line <-onatmeted and some little grading done. I well knew that it was but a poor ajiology for a road, arid had only adopted it because it shortened the distance by more than one half, from that cf the regular wagon road. Werwere, os nearly as I could esti­ mate, within five or' six miles of our destination when, fo my consternation, I saw that the prognostication of the old skidder was about to be verified.

The cable brought the assertion that Sarah Burn-, hardt was enacting Joan of Aro with naked feet, and many a style has been fixed by that actress' example. Tbe dis­ patches said thst, in the prison scene of the play, Ihe unfortunate maid appears in a gray tunic that barely hides her nude limbs. I am now able to say, on .the au­ thority of a private letter from Paris, that Sarah's pedal extremities are en­ cased in flesh-tinted tights, having toed feet, thus giving the appearance of naked­ ness. It may be that toed hosiery will come into vogue, but the cable man mis­ led us as to Bernhardt's realism.

Reporter's Visit to ose of Nashvllls’s LesAl&a MenufscturlE< Establishmsnta. Wednesday morning we put to good use a spare hour in making a tour of inspection of the furniture factory of J. Lentz & Sous. Their establishment Is the oldest in the lineof manufactur­ ing, in Nashville, {unless we except the saw mill now run by’H. R. Dickinson & Co.,) and has always been in the hands of Ils present owuetrs. Jacob Lentz, the senior memberof the firm, came to Nashville in 1887, and opened a furniture store and a small s hop, known then as a ’’cabinet shop’’. He was a skilled mechanic, and his little industry prospered with the growth of the village and the improvement of the adjacent country. His sons, Charles, Albert, and Louis, grew to manhood here and were one by one, as they arrived of age, taken into part­ nership with their father. They are all skilled cabinet makers, having : served years of apprenticeship under their father’s capable tutelage and have all followed their trade ever since, so that at the present time all are ca­ llable of taking, as they do, an active part in the business of the institution. Until about a year ago, the work done In their shop was confined almost exclusively to the manufacture of fur­ niture for their large retail store here, but at that time they came to the con­ clusion that as they had ample facili­ ties for doing more work It would be a good plan to build some work for the trade. They accordingly commenced building a line of extension tables, which they put upon the market, moetingwithsuch marked success that they have kept adding to their help .from time to time as occasion demanded until at the present time the working force is sixteen men, and the weekly output of tables.is about thirty. They manufacture five patterns at present, and those arc all of the finest grades. Their work is so well done that a short time ago one of the freight conductors on this division made the remark that ' their work was the finest shipped over this line. The main building or factory proper is 32x20, and three stories in height, built of brick, with brick boiler and engine room adjoining on the west. A large steam dry kiln, off the boiler room, prepares the lumber for work! ngEast of the main building is another building, |px50, two stories high, in the rear of which Is a storage room. Thb finishing room is on the second floor of this building, and the packing and shipping room is on the first floor. We made the wholecircultof the insti­ tution, and though we had occasion to . use a whisk-broom vigorously after getting uut, we felt well repaid for our hour’s visit. PROCEEDINGS OF THE THIRD AN­ NUAL BARRY COUNTY SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION. The Convention opened Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 o’clock, with de­ votional exercises, led by Rev. W. M Puffer, followed by singing, and prayer by M. H.-Reynolds'; this was succeeded by the reports of township delegates, Hastings, Nashville, Baltimore, Maple Grove, Assyria and Woodland being duly represented An able paper was read by Mrs. E. B. Pennock and dis­ cussed by Rev A. K. Stewart and others; some very important and in­ teresting facts were presented in this paper, while others were brought out in Its discussion. The afternoon ses­ sion closed at 5 o’clock. The evening session began at 7, with devotional exercises, its! by Rev. I. N. Aldrich. Singing was next in order, followed with prayer by the president. A duet was then given by Miss Kate Dickinson and Miss Lulu Kuhlman, with Miss Mabie Selleck as organist, after which came the address by the president, which was very ably delivered and enjoyed by all. His subject was a well chosen one; being, “Sabbath Observance ” The session of Thu rsday began at a late hour, 9:30, a. m., but was very in­ teresting i|nd highly beneficial. Prayer and conference meeting, led by M.* H. Reynolds, was the first on the pro­ gram; succeeded by paper. “Personal Influence of Teachers”, by Mrs. Jocelln, j discussed by Rev. A. D. Grigsby and ' others: this was followed by a very in­ structive talk, given by Rev. I. N. Aldrich, his subject being “How to listened .to. the secretary’s report. Next came the election of officers, which resulted as follows: President—M. L. Cook, of Hast ings, Vice President—MIm Ada Michael, of Hastings. Secretary—Mrs. Whitney, of Middle­ rille. Treasurer—Mrs. G. A. Truman, of Nashville. Following the election, M. L. Cook read his paper, “Tbe Neglecting Clas­ ses; How to Reach Them,” which was considered one of the "best of the ses­ sion, and was discussed by Bev. W. M. Puffer. Tbe children's service was conducted by State Organizer Reynolds, and was very interesting. Theevenlngsession opened with an anthem by the choir, followed by de­ votional exercises, conducted by Rev. Puffer. Misses Mac Tomlinson and Retta Oviatt sang a very pretty duet. Mrs. S. Goody ear’s pajier, “Defects in our Sunday Schools,” followed, and was ably discussed, Rev. A. D. Grigs­ hy leading. The convention then closed with the doxology and benediction. . ANOTHER FURNITDRB FACTORY. prospects good for success. J.

This is the right spirit, and we feel confi­ dent It will spur the work sufficiently to make it a success. A large assemblage of the voters of the tillage gathered at the town hall Thursday evening, pursuant to the call for citizens’ caucus, published in last week’s News. The meet! ng was cal led to order by W. S. Powers and C. L. Glasgow elected chairman, but as he declined to serve, Wm. Boston was chosen In his st#ad, andG. W. Francis and Frank McDerby were appointed tellers. H. R. .Dickinson's name was proposed for president, and he was nominated with no opposition. Wm. Boston was also unanimously nomina­ ted for assessor. On the nomination for clerk, however, the caucus dividwl, C.:B. Lusk being nominated overH. C. Zuschnlttby asmall majority. The race for treasurer was very close, the vote standing. W. I. Marble .M. E. M. EverpU44, Mr. MarbleiWlng declared the nominee. On the other nomina­ tions there was little contention and the ticket as nominated is as follows: For President—H. R. Dickinson. For Assessor—Win. Boston. For Clerk—C. B. Lusk. □ For Treasurer—W. I. Marble. □ For Marshal and street commis­ sioner—S. Overholt. For Constable—Chas. McMore. For Trustees—L. F. Weaver, C. M. Putnam and John Bell. MICHIGAN SAVINGS AND LOAN ASSOCIATION OF DETROIT. An Advisory Board for Nashville Or­ ganised last Friday. A local l»oard of the above named association was successfully organized in our village on Friday last, with the following named officers and directors: President—C. L. Glasgow. Secretary and Treasurer—C. A. Hough. Attorney—W. S. Powers. Directors—A. L. Bemis, J. B. Mar­ shall, Dr. L. F. Weaver, H. C. Zuschnitt, and O. W. McColl. This is one of the strongest savings and loan associations in the country, and is meeting with remarkable suc­ cess. It gives a safe and profitable in­ vestment to the non-borrowing mem­ ber, and enables the borrowing mem­ bers to buy their ownJwme and cancel the mortgage, paying the same in monthly installments, about the same as paying rent. Applications for shares, and information regarding loans, can be had by inquiring of C. A. Hough, the secretary. The plau is an excellent one, and worthy of investi­ gation. For a yuung man working on salary, we believe it to be one of the very best possible means of saving up a nest-egg for a future fortune. Ths Detroit officers consist of the following days Nashville people will be well sup­ plied. H. G.

The story is that when the Grand Duchess Nicholas, who, as Ik well known, lived many years In seclu­ sion In the famous cavu convent at Kiow. was visited by tho. Grund Duke Peter, the Grand Duches* presented his brldft with her magnificent collection of Jewels. These she had left In her hus­ band's care In St. Petersburg.

It Is fearcU that disaster has visited Wickenburg, thirty miles below the dam, and that many live* have boon lost. • Not the slightest doubt had boon en­ tertained of the safety of tbe dam. which formed a lake three miles'lonir by three fourths of a mile wide and II!) feet deep. Miners had erected houses along »tn-«m. .nd time were IKtedup b, the waters aud dashed to pieces. Th« first Intimation of the disaster was a sound resembling thunder - and at the same moment a perpendicular wall of water fifty feet high came roaring down tho narrow valley. Heavy rains have Mllen for several days and Friday night It was upparent that the water In the lake was approaching tho danger line. Arthur Allen, formerly ot Enterprise, nnd John McDonald, part owner of th« Blue Deck mine, have Just returned from tho Dozorl.* divide, fourteen mile* ‘south of the town, from which a view of lhe dam could Ixi had.

Th®' damage will reach into the million*, , while the number of those who perished will, without doubt, be great, as many families were living in narrow canyons near lhe stream. Confirmation of the .news of the occurrence ha* heightened the excitement, and more definffif in­ formation Is now a'tixi'iusly awaited.

LABOR'S CENTURY. If, as Victor Hugo’said, the Nine­ teenth century was woman's century, it is no leas true that lhe Twentieth will be labor’s century. It needs not a prophet to foretell that the coming man is the working man, and that lie is gaining power to make himself re­ spected. The time is not very faraway when those who make the wealth of the world*will get their share of it. With the Improvements in machinery', the growing humanitarian sentiment <4 society, as well as lhe growing intel­ ligence of the working men and their power to hang together and enforce their demands, will come leisure for all to Improve themselves. The labor­ er will have a happy, comfortable home and his family j the best educa­ tion. The workingman will be the aristocrat of the Twentieth century. The Swiss international later con­ ference at Berne meets May Mh. It will discuss theadoptlon of a standard working day for all the world. May 1 there will be a great demonstration tn Paris for theeight hour work tag day. May 1 in the United States is fixed by trades for the adoption of the eight hour day. On the same date there will tie monster meetings in Great Britian and variouscountries of tbecoulinental Europe to encourage the movement.

FOUR BOYS TOO MANY. Ono Runaway Come and Ono Run­ away Gone. A wild rush nnd jar of scamper!ng foot In the morning, a hubbub of suppressed shout*, a tumble on the stairwaj- at of muffled thunder, and four rollicking boys land in the lower hall with a suc­ cession of resonant thuds, and rush off to tho closet that receives their nightly deposit of shoes. In tbe same spacious closet Is the lava­ tory for their morning albutions, and. after a wordy scramble for the right shoes—which they never can remember to stand in pairs in a row—they wash and brush, and are ready to tackle papa for somo favor or other ar soon us ho shall have come down to breakfast. This time it is for him to furnish what Santa Claus has failed to do—a turning lathe for their workshop, one with a treadle, to be worked by "foot power.” ! “If wo are to bo cooped up here in I town.” they say io each other, "never । allowed to play on the streets, we must have tools and things as fast as we grow to them.” So, this morning, Arthur, the ehtest, is going to tell papa that he’s grown to a turning lathe. “I can run a turning lathe as well as you can.” says Burt to Arthur. "You know 1 can whip you any time when I try my level test, 'cause I’ve got the* muscle, you see,” and he clenches his fist against hia shoulder and strikes out like a young gymnast "You know you can't do any such thing when I try my level best," says Arthur, tripping up his brother white ■peaking. Then Burt leapa to his foet. and grappling Arthur, a short struggle follows, ending in a tussle on the floor, while Carlos nnd Bennie stand by, laughing and cheering. Their sister Julia, coming down staire. yawning and sleepy, hears the tumult, and rushtn? in. exclaims: "1 declare, if you awful boys are not' fighting, this early in'the morning. I'm going to call papa down, this minute.” Knowing she will doit, they untangle themanlves, and turn their attention tot her. "We can never have any tun where you are without your interfering," says Arthur, with a very red face. "You’re always putting on fine lady airs and getting shocked at every thing we do." "How did you come to be awake so early, anyway. Miss Sleepyhead?” oaks Burt, eneeringly. “Awake, indeed!*' she impatiently rt* torts. "I wonder who could sleep a wink In this house after you are awake. Tbe noiao you make in getting down stairs is enough to make the neighbors think there is an earthquake cm band. I’m positively ashamed of you.” "O, you're so touchy," retorts Arthur. “I'm glad I'm not a girl. We do try to keep still and smother every thing till —till we just explode; you know we can't help that.” "Besides.” adds Burt, "mamma makes us leave off our shoes to save the car­ pet, and how can we make much noise in our atocking feet ?" "How can you, indeed. You couldn't if you weren't as ruda as a pack of In­ dians. The fact is. four boys are too many for one house.” "That's what I think when they've got a sister like you,” snaps out Arthur, "and I'm going to run away—that's what I'm going to do.” "I wouldn't start till after breakfast if I wore you,” says Julia, sneeringly. "You shut up." "And I wouldn't go till the weather | changes; it* rather cold just now for j sleeping in barns." "I tell you to shut up, yon hateful [ thing you." Mr. Medford, entering with slippered feet just in time to hear Arthur's last | words, is shocked at their rudenes* and | unkindnesa, and, reproving him. orders i him to his room, to remain until he is j called. At the same time Mr*. Medford ■ appears and the bell summons them to ■ the breakfast room. While serving tbe | buckwheat cakes the waiting maid an- 1 nouflc'-s that the cook is trying to thaw 1 001 a half-fruaen boy by tbe range aud ' feeding him hut cakes.” Breakfast bring over, Mr. Medford haatily buttons himself into his over- dcnly get* very ooter, nnd whtapera: “He **id he wa* goisg to run away." 1 bne ia now thoroughly alarmed, tearing the boy hoa had time to gut tar out ot the city. So Bart i« hastily dispatched to his father's office with the sorry tidings, and there learns that hi* father hod only looked In th&t morning for tome papers, saying "that be ahould return about noon. This news at home is too much and the tension of anxiety give* way to bitter tears. Mother and boys, with arm* 'about each other, weep toSother. Suddenly Burt darts off to nd hi* sister. She had fled to her room aa soon a* she felt *ure that Arthur bad left the house. Burt found her crying and wringing her hand*. "Julia," ho says, "you are to blame for this. You might have known better than to tell such a boy as Arthur that four boys are too much for one house." "I know it, I know it,” sobs Julia, and ffhen papa sent him to his room I knew I WM the one that should be pun­ ished." “Well, I'm glad you feel it; I **8 afraid you didn't. Yqu always oct a* if you thought us boys a great nuisance, cause wo can’t be refined and spooney as girl*.” "But I don't think so,” sobs Julia, “and l*d give the whole world, if I had it, just to sec Arthur now, and tell him I love him.“ . "Good for you. Papa'll find him some­ how. of course, and then we'll b>e a jolly lot once more.” Then he left her, say­ ing to himself: "What a queer morning —one runaway oomc and another one gone.” In the meantime, Mr. Medford, having nn early engagement with the railway superintendent, arrived at the station just in time to see Arthur—yes, it was, surely Arthur—enter a car on tho train just moving off. Quick as thought, bo springs upon tho same train, and when it is. well under way, leisurely saunters back into the car where his son is seated. "Bello. Arthur, where are gou going this morning?" says hl* father, seating himself beside him. Bht Arthur was too dumb-founded to, ■peak. His father kindly repeat* tho. question, and finally Arthur says: "Juat’ anywhere to got away from home." '■Don't know where you are going to!! It strikes me that's bad management— very unbusinesslike* Now, if I were a boy. planning to leave my home. I'd[ want to make sure of a better place to, go to before starting—a place where the, people would be sure to want me, es­’ pecially the women folks: a place where' I'd be clothed, bearded and educated fr^e of charge when in health, and where1 I'd get loving care and attention when. sick.

Burt, thinking 1 only of the boy in the hasmuent runs to the foot of the stairs and calling to his brother to come down, hutenH to join tbe others l>e!ow. There, with Irouted fingers and frozen feot, sit* a boy of Burt's rise, thinly clad, bls pinched features telling of past hun­ ger, present suffering and. ahyncM. “Hello!” say* Burt, "how did you get in this fix?" No answer. "O, say,* you needn't mind me; I want you to talk. Y’ou didn't start out to make* regular tramp of yourself, now, did you?" Still no answer; only s sup­ pressed moan as he draw* one foot up in his hSDd* from the snow-water with which the cook ha* been trying ta draw out the frost. “Let him alone, dear.” says his moth­ er: “when hi* feet hurt him les* he'll tell me all about himself. I’m sure. Dry his feet with this towet, and then help me wrap them up with cotton and tur­ pentine to relievo the soreness and swelling. 1 really fear he’s going to lose them both’, see bow fast they are turning dark.” , With this tho boy’s tears licganto flow, and as he wipes them on his sleeve* ho says: “I’m no tramp; I’m only a runa­ way." •*A runaway is bad enough." replies Mrs. Medford. “From whom or what did you run away?” Again no answer. “Is your mother living?” “No, ma'am." Then, after a pause, “It's because I wouldn't break my prom­ ise to her, when she died, that I had to run away.” Instantly Mrs. Medford was interested. A boy's promise to a dying mother drive* him from home. She -must know more about it. Drawing a chair near to him, she says: "Now tell me all about it I am a mother; see, I have boys, too. I want to know yoilr troubles. What was your promise?” ‘ "I promised tier for certain, sure, that I’d never drink beer nor liquor ot any kind, nor sell it, nor help anybody to sell it and I had to run away or break my promise.” “How was it? tell me.” ’ "I'd rather not, madam," and his eyes glanced toward his young listeners, in­ cluding Julia, who stood, silent, near her mother. “Y’ou needn't mind telling all of us about it” continued Mr*, bfedford. "My children arc sorry for a boy who got into trouble because of so excellent a promise a* that to a dying mother. Now, let's hoar just how it was.” "Well, then, it was this way.

Southwestern Judge Who Oould Not Be Trifled With. HE most sensa­ tional legal com­ plication that ever aroused the inter­ ’ eat of a law-abid­ . ing neighlrorhood , was the outgrowth •*' of a trial held be­ fore Judge B. W. Quirk, of the Hick­ ory Flat circuit in Arkansas, writes Cpie P. Road, in the Chicago Timet. The circumstances, told with tho necesnary drvness of detail, are as follows: One John Peters, a sober and indus­ trious man, failed to come hocut* one aight. This occurrence was so unusual that Lis wife, becoming alarmed, aroused the neighborhood, and men. women, and children turned out in ‘a general search. The next day John t’etera’ coat was found near the river bank. Marks of a struggle were also discove ed. Immediately there arose a cry tl at the man had been murdered; and. al out this time, there came along a reputable citizen who declared that SEARCH FOR THE DEAD. he had. several darn before, heard Sim White and Al Miller swear that they would kill Peters. The two men were arrested and taken before a Justice of the Peace. Thev avowod their inno- could not be held for murder un­ til it was proved that a murder had been cojumittcd. This proof wm uot long wanting, for a fisherman soon ar­ rived with the information that he had fouud the body of Peters. The body wm identified, and the preliminary -trial proceeded,! resulting uot only in •establishing the fact that White and Miller swore that they would kill Pe­ ters but that they were overheard to • declare that they would drown him. They were held over and were indicted ‘hy the Grand Jury. When the case came up before Judge Quirk of the Circuit Court some of the - ablest lawyers in the State were in at­ tendance, for White and Miller were • not friendless, aud moreover they were not without means. After more than a week of “akirtaishing" a jury was. impaneled, and then the great trial was begun. The major­ ity of the people, induding the press, •a four-<x)lamn folio set in small pica .sod printed in the back room of P. B. Whitson's cross-roads store, believed 4hat 1 verdict of guilty would be ren­ dered. aud bets were made with persons UKV-H.KMEN OF THE JVKT. «riwht be “ Culvered." The trial had not proeoeded far when •it could be cImkIv Keen that the Jndge ■w cuuvHH’cd that White and Miller ■ware guilty. This jurist was something snore thau a peculiar old fellow. He wm » decidiHi character, and so net ware hia opinions when once formed that no argument and no proof oould dtangc them. “Geratlrmen of the jnry," aaid the ^Tudga. when ail the te«timouy had rrimiaal ft to f>y in prolonging oiiers. the IhwI thing yon ran do rente.** your guilt and throw yonraelvtM upon the mercy of thjs court. Have you any confession to make, Mr. White?” ‘ “No. your Honor, except that I am innocent.” , “Have you any confession, Mr. Mil­ lar?” ‘ “None, except to aav that I had nothing to do with the killing of our friend Peters.” “All right,” said the Judge. “I see that you -do not desire any mercy, but if you expect to escape punishment bv making a prolonged fight, let me tell you yon will meet with nothing but cluappointnient. I nm here as the fearless agent of justice. I have made up my mind. I have determined that you arc guilty, and nothing on earth can change me. Gentlemen of the jury, von may retire and agree upon a ver­ dict.” ' The jury, without leaving the box, rendered a verdict of guilty. “Gentlemen," said tho Judge, "to expedite matters, and thereby save ex­ pense to the county, I will sentence these men now. The law may be in favor of delay, but justice is not. The law might permit the Sheriff to take these men to jail and feed them at the county’s expense until some distant day -of execution should arrive, bnt justice, the one bright flower in our judiciary garden of weeds, looks up and says: ‘No, Mr. Sheriff, these men must be hanged forthwith.’ So take them out when the death sentence has been passed and hang them to the most convenient tree. Prisoners at the bur. stand up and receive youn sen­ tence.” ■ The prisoners stood up, and just as the Judge had pronounced the last words of the sentence the wife of Mr. Peters uttered a shout and bounding toward the door threw her arms around a man who had just entered the court­ room. A wild commotion followed. “What’s the matter?" the Judge de­ manded. “Who it the man that the bereaved window is hugging:” “I an’t no believed widow, jedge.” the woman answered, “far this is my husband, safe and well.” “Silence, woman.” the Judge de­ manded. “You orght to have IAter sense than to interrupt this court.” “Your honor.” said a lawyer, “I sup­ pose my clients can now go free?” “Ana why «o, air?” . “Can your honor ask such a question when Mr. Peters stands here licfore yon?” “Who is Mr. Peters?” ’ “Your honor, I cannot understand you.” ’ “But you will pretty soon. The Mr. Peters that this court has taken into consideration is dead.” “No, I’m not!” exclaimed Peters, stepping forward. “lou may think you are not, Mr. Peters, but you are. Never in all my professional caseer,” theJ udge con­ tinued, “Lave I ever seen facts that so clearly and strongly establish the guilt of two men.” “But, Judge,” Peters pleaded, “that can not be, for no murder has been committed.” “Mr. Peters, you have not examined the evidence as closely a* 1 liave.” “.But here I stand in refutation of all evidence." “Mr. Peters, you have not read as many text-books on evidence aal have. I THE JVDOE KNEW THE I.AW. The case against these prisoners is perfectly clear. They swore that they would drown you, and your coat was found near the river. Is not that strong evidence?” “Yes. but------ ” “Hold on. The body of x man was taken from the river nnd identified as your remains.” ' “But I am here to refute the identi­ fication.” “Ah. you are here to throw an ob­ struction in the way of justice, are you ? I liave heard on several occaMons that yon are a man who haa verylittle respect for the decision of a court. And you have come around here to bully me, and that, too. in the face of the strongest evidence that was ever brought before a court of justice. Mr. Sheriff, issue a bench warrant of arrest for this man on the ground of contempt of court, and then‘proceed with the hanging.

The white man gazed admiringly at the tree. “ You think it is a fine tree," aaid the native, “bnt I will show you what H is good for." He pierced the root of one of- the leaf stems, at the point where it joined the tree with his spear, whereupon a stream of dear water apurU-d out, which the European caught in hia water can. and found cool, freah, aud excellent to drink.

Before long Rover sees something com­ ing on the sidewalk in the distance. He pricks up hi* ears and trots off to­ ward it. He is more and more excited.

Seven men were wounded by bullets during tho skirmish at Ingalls, and further bloodshed Is expected.

He did so. and was forced CO go to the postoffire. whore tho clerk of the court wm given fhc letter, nnd reaching It to the crowd, it was torn uji. ' Gregory wa# then turned loose, and next day Iu-went over to Ingalls with fifty armed men. The desperadoes who led the mob lhe previousdny. finding that they wore wanted by the Ingalls crowd, tried to get out of town, when Allinsworth was shot twice in tho legs and out’o in lhe neck and Is supposed to be fatally In­ jured. The othqr two got away on fast horses, but it is thought Hold was wounded. There was some shooting around town, and ft was feared a gen­ eral battle would ensue. Three other Ingalls men were- marked with bullets, while four horse# and two mon of' tho Cimarron crowd were wounded before they left town. The postmaster will be called upon to answer for holding the letter containing tbe bond for costs of suit, and th*’ coun­ ty authorities. who are Ingalls men. will be asked to look after the matter of forcing Cimarron parties to withdraw the suit. Great excitement prevails and there will doubtless be more conflicts be­ fore lhe matter is ended.

A Washington dispatch savs: The world’* fair has b»u-n won for Chicago by a majority in the Honsc, over all comjmtItors, of 4 votes, a plurality over New York of 5*), s plurality over St. Louis of 127. and a plurality over Washington'of 139. This substantially aettles the world’s fair question, for although the main bill must yet Le voted upon In the House and the location voted upon in t re Senate, there Is no manner of doubt among the Chicago managers that lhe House bill will be adopted by an over­ whelming majority and that of the Sen­ ators two-third» are for Chicago. After lhe reading of the journal on the dav in which the location came up for settlement by the National House of Representative# the Speaker directed lhe clerk to read the resolution under which the world's fair vote waa to be taken. ••The clerk will now call the roll." #aid the Sneaker, "and imch member as his name is called will indicate the city >>e<reslres for the location of the world's fair.” . The clerk then began In- a clear voice to call the roll amid the utmost silence. The first name called was that of Mr. Adams, of Illinois, who voted foi'.’Thl.cago." He was #0 warmly applauded that lhe Speakw directed the spectators to refrain from applause. Thrf calling und verification of the vote occupied about forty minute*. The 'first ballot for the world'* fair resulted a# follows: Chicago, 115; Now York. St- Louis, 01; Washington, 50. Cumberland Gap. 1. Th© second ballot resulted a* follow*: Chicago. 1 !1; New York, 82; St, Louis, 59; Washington, 50. Tot*.’. 300; neces­ sary to a choice 155. Chicago, there­ fore. wa* within 34 votes of succe*. Now York lucked 72, St. Louis 99, aud Wash­ lugton 10X , No city having had a majority a third ballot was ordered, which resulted as follows: Chicago. 127; New York. 92; Washington, 34: St. Ixmls. 5X Total, 300; necessary-to a choice. 154. The fourth ballot was then proceeded with, with the following result: Chicago, 134; New York. 95; Washington. 29; St. Louis, 38. Tola). 312, necessary to a choice. 157. The fifth ballot wa# Immediately or­ dered. with the following result: Chi­ cago. 140; New York. 110; Wa»hlugtou. 24; Stt Loul*, 38. Total, 312; necessary to a choice, 157. The sixth ballot showed the following result: Chicago. 148; New York. 117; Washington. 19: St. Lonis, 28. Total. 312: necessary to a choice. 157. The result of the seventh ballot was 311 votes, as follows: Chicago. 154; New York, 112; St. Louis, 27; Washington. 17. A majority would be 156 and Chicago had 154, Just two votes short. Thera was an agony of expectation when Billy Mason dragged Rayburn, the new memlier. forward. He said lie wished to change his vote from New York to Chicago and did so. Be was greeted with applause, and evidently ex­ pected to lead a stampede for Chi­ cago, but ho wa* disappointed. Nobody followed his example and Chicago's total stood at 155—one le#* than a majority. The New York forces were retiring In good order and contested every Inch ot the ground. So another roll call was necessary. It was the1 eighth and the last, for Chicago achieved her victory, and out of the total of J07 votes received 157—three more than a majority. New York had 107; St. Louis, 25, aryl Wash­ ington 18. Before halloaing began Mr.^llourft, ot Georgia, wishes! to know If there would be an opportunity afforded to pas* upon the question os to whether there should be a fair before selecting a site. Tho Speaker replied that under the special oilier this opportunity could not bo had. and immediately directed the clerk to call the roll. - The clerk had no chance to rest. > for. Ignoring the appeal of certain members who bad been at luncheon to be allowed to be allowed to record their ballots, a practice forbidden by the new rules, the Speaker each time directed tbe roll to be called. Alt was excitement as the roll-call be­ gan on the sixth ballot. It was appar­ ent that the southern members, who had steadfastly supported 8L Louis up to this point, were beginning to break away ar.d were going over to New York. Consequently the expectations of lhe New Yorker* were at the highest point, and Indeed on till* vote they polled their fall strength, but gaifiod only ti votes, while Chicago gained 9. ■ and St. Louis and Washlugton kept up their steady retrogression, the former losing 10 and the latter 5 vote*. The New York people were discom­ fited at their small gain on the sixth ballot and began to realize that they could do no more. Wilson of West Vir­ ginia. the leader for Washington, moved a recess until to-day at ILo'clock. There was much excitement on the floor al this point. Flower of New York, was hurrying about, from one man to an­ other, pointing at the clock (which In­ dicated the hour of 4:30) and urging a recess. A rumor ran over the western side of the hall, where Chicago was In force, that it wa* the purpose of the New Yorker# to arrange over night for a transfer of their strength and that of St. Louie to Washington, and tho fact that Wilson was leading the movement tended to add enrrenuy to the. rumor. If such wasthc purpose, however, it failed signally, for on the yea and uay veto the wc*t rallied together, and the Hu im refused to take a recess by a vote ol— yea*, 138; hays, 174. The Chicagoan* were In <’tverl*h Im­ patience, fearing some dilatory tactic* that would lose them lhe advantage lhey held. Masou rushed forward to th^ clerk, exclaiming: "Call the roil! Call the roll!” New York's backbone was broken, however, and there wa* little further opposition. To SucwJ Jaaper D. Pyne.

YOUNG, M. D., Physician and BurOffice hour* east aide Main St. W•in.geon, _ <• _ Monday afternoon, at 4.20 o’clock, occurred the death of one of the oldest residents of Nashville, Robert Brady, at the age of 97 years and six months. The cause of death was heart trouble, by which he had been confined to the house nearly all the past winter, and his demise was not, therefore, unex­ pected. The funeral occurred Thurs­ day morning at eight o’clock, Elder P. Holler conducting the short serv­ ices, after which the remains were taken to Bedford for interment. Mr. Brady has been identified with the interests of Nashville for many years, having come here in 1868, when the village was in its infancy, and has amassed considerable property, his es­ tate being variously estimated at from 830,000 to 850,000. He was a Canadian by birth, Toronto being his birth­ place. He leaves a wife and three children, LannlsR. and J^hn IL Brady, and Mrs. Frank Treat, who with many warm friends mourn his death. F.

This Is tin Increase on the present rate, which provides for 'a duty of 2>» cents on carpet wools worth 12 cents or less at tho place of export nod 5 cents on carpet wools worth more than 12 cents. ’ T!’opresent rate on clothing wools Is 10 celts a pound when worth 30 cents or less and 12 cents when worth more than 30 cents. On woolen and worsted yarns tho new bill Imposes a duty per pound of three and a half times the duty on a pound of unwashed wool of tho first cluss and In ad di tlou thereto 40 per cent ad valorem.

That • Is to say, tho duty will be X <^nt per pound on the raw sugar up to mid Including No. 1(5, polariscope test, then M cent per pound added on refined sugar.

Russia in these later days is coming before the world in a painfully offen­ sive light. Her persistent and merci­ less policy toward th<) Bulgarians and their Prince, the brutal floggings and official murders at Kara, in Siberia, arehardly more scaudelous than the course which she is now pursing to­ ward the German*, the Finns, the Polesand the Jews. The domestic reforms projected by the late Count Tolstoi—reforms which •contemplate among other things the introduction of uniformity in the ad­ ministration of the law—have just come into operation. Generally speak­ ing, these reforms command approval. It is not difficult to perceive, however, that the ultimate object Is the consol­ idation of the empire. It is noteworthy tiiat the same time has been chosen to initiate proceed­ ings against all resident foreign ele­ ments. The Russian provinces on the Baltic coast arc peopled by German Lutherans. The word has gone forth that this Protestant people must con­ form.! a the Greek church, submit to the prescribed penalties or retire from theeovntry. The Germans are numer­ ous, also, in southern Russia, where they have bean Invited to settle by must ^f the previous Czars; and; it is well known that they constitute the most industrious pari of the popula­ tion. But like their kinsmen of the Baltic provinces they are Lutherans in faith and practice, and they use the German language. Against them, too, the sentence has gone forth. A similar policy is being pursued in regard to the Finns. Finland is not Teutonic, but in Russian eyes ft has the same demerits as those which are complained of in the German sections. Tne Finns are Lu thurab: and they have hit-hmo been allowed to have an ad­ ministration of their own—an admtaDtration in harmony with their ahfifent traditions and suited to their general habits ami modes of living. Finland has iong been threatened with absorption: and the only answer which the people have been able to ohtain to vigorous and earnest protests against the propped policy is the ap­ pointment of a commission to inquireinto the beet way of amalgamating the pOAU the customs aud the mint of Fin- projects are music in the air. The con­ gress ought to be at least a good school for the delegates. We shall soon know what it has done for the two Americas. ! I * DIRE PROPHECIES.

There were seven commercial men from eleven wholesale Eastern houses, the other evening, each displacing a certain amount ot ntmcMphcre in a St. Paul hotel. As they had not yet regis­ tered, it occurred to one that 'the time might be cheerfully occupied in having some fun with the clerk. Tho diaboli­ cal scheme was apesdily- formulated. One of them approached'their intended victim and raid: “How do you do, »-ir?’aaid the clerk, and out flew the hand ever ready to welcome the coming and si>eed the parting guest. “You are from-r—" "Maugatuck." “Yes; well, how aro times?" “Booming."

Of course y6u know either B------- or G-------.” "Not that I am aware of," and K------bowed stiffly. Numbers 4, 5, 6 and 7 came rapidly forward in consequence aud proceeded to make the clerk weary, each professing utter ignorance of the other’s identity. “Let me see, you are representing wholesale houses, gentlemen, are yen not;” “Y'ea;” “lam;” “I forone," etc.,etc., chorused the drummers “Well, well, bless me," raid the clerk; “by the way, how large a place fe Sau­ gatuck ?” “There must be fullvfifteen hundred population there," M»d K------- , gravelv. “Indeed!” exclaimed the clerk, “I knew it must be A mighty big city that could go right on and do inuunreui with seven such pillar* of society out of it at tuA time."

Prayer meeting every Thursday evening. ■ It Is a humorous tale, and yet with a gtxxl plot and Interesting. Fielding is one of the most brilliant of Amer­ ican humorists, and his work is now a star feature of the New York World's Sunday edition and of other leading newspapers. He is one of the very few writers to-day Who have wit enough to make their humor clean and accept­ able to all tastes. That the' plot of this story is both origi nal and interest­ ing will be seen by the following let­ ter from Mr. Fielding describing it: ‘•You want a serial story of alxjut 30,000 words. I have picked out the very best in the dictionary, and I will steal the pictures out of the back part if you think they would helpthe effect. In this work I have been assisted by Mr. Frederic R. Burton. He knows how to make plots and keep the pub­ lic in suspense. I am so simple hearted and direct that I should begin to kill the villain and marry the good as soon as I took up my pen. Between us we have concocted a cheerful tale, in which I have every sort or confidence. It is full of incident, and in it I have done some of the best humorous writ­ ing I have ever give# you. “In a story of this kind one doesn't have to be sudden and explosive as in short sketches. Its humor, as they say in a soap ad., ‘will not harm the most delicate of fabrics,' I may add that there is a high moral purpose in the story, which is carefully concealed H. YOUNG, M.

Nothing whatever is introduced that could possibly lie objected to, even by the <nost prudish of critics. “The story involves a sketch of Drane In the ‘Tramp’s Paradise:’ his incarceration in a luqatic asylum (cer­ tainly the funniest sketch-work I ever had a liand In): his escape, and en­ deavor to secure the reward offered for his capture by passing off the orig­ inal thief as himself; his adventures with the maid who stole the hefolne’s clothes; his love-making with the her­ oine herself, and her jealousy of her ow n maid. At the close every body Is rewarded, including the two 'villains.’ “When we had finished the story 1 asked Burton what he thought It was worth. He figured afew minutes, and then said about $700,000. His calcula­ tions are right mathematically, but out of personal friendship to you I have knocked off a few ciphers. Yours Sincerely, Howard Fielding.” Read the opening chapter next week. Much interest had been awakened among thtpeople of this vicinity in regard to the outcome of the case of the people vs. Isaac Sponable, charged with a violation of the fish law by catching fish with a net . in Thornap­ ple river, consequently quite a num­ ber of people were in the village Tues­ day last to attend the suit. Mr. Spouable and his attorneys, W. S. Powers, of this place, and I. A. Holbrook, of Hastings, were on hand early, ready for the fray, and Deputy Warden E. O. Hyde, of Morgan, was also on hand with his witnesses, but Game Warden William Alden Smith, of Grand Rap­ ids, who was expected here to prose­ cute the case, failed to put in an -ap pearance for the people and Justice Mills was obliged to dismiss the case. LOOKING FOB COAL. Thos. Pattinson, of Masslion, Ohio, was In this vicinity last week, the guest of W. A. {smith. Mr. Pat­ tinson is an oil and coal man, having followed that business for over twenty years, and his business here was to look over the country about Nash­ ville for evidences of oil or coal. In company with Mr. Smith he spent sev­ eral days in prospecting in every di­ rection from town, and was so favora­ bly Impressed with the outlook in cer­ tain localities that he expressed a probability of his return in the near future io tile interests of the company for which he is working, to more thor­ oughly investigate. Dnring their ram­ bles they picked up several pieces of copper, fihiiing'one piece weighing 35 pounds. It was not copper ore, in its natural state, but had been melted, probably by the Indians, at some early day. However, the finding of so large a piece might indicate the»presence of ore In this vicinity, although that is not thought probable. LOCAL SPLINTERS. Watch for the new story.

A Syndicate Nubmlta a Proposition to tb< Washington dispatch: A new prop­ osition in connection with tne proposed establishment ot a government postal telegraph system was made to the House committee un postoffices by J. M. Sey­ mour, a member of the New York Stock Exchange. Mr. Seymour stated that he represented a number of well-known capitalists who were willing to build lines and maintain a postal telegraph system under government supervision In accordance with the provisions of tho Postmaster-General’s bill or to operate on a uniform 25-cent rati'. .„ They hoped to make the undertaking a success by the Patten multiplex sys­ tem, which has been In operation In New York and Philadelphia for six months. Tho syndicate proposed t<» build and maintain the lines, furnish operators, power and stationery and to have the right to . build and be protected in constructing Hurs over all postal roads. It asked to be exempted from Federal and State taxation. In cities where the postoffices were cramped for want of room the syn­ dicate proposed to furnish its own offices. It was desired to make a contract with the government for fifteen years with the privilege of renewal, unless the gov­ ernment would take the lines at the end of that time at a value to bo appraised by experts. Mr. Seymour said he would rather not give the names of his asso­ ciates, but aastired the committee that they were all well known throughout the. commercial world and were willing to give a bond of gwu.000 as a guarantee that they wpuid carry out auy contract with the government. Tbe syndicate expected, he stak’d, to ■be allowed to do prlvak: business outside of the government work. Mr. Seymour claimed that had the Western Union used the Patten systetn last year Its ex­ penses would have been only 86,000,000 instead os $16,000,000.

The Big-Sandisns proper, the men who compose the corps of the Hatfields and McCoys, owe their peculiar char­ acteristic^ their vengeful disposition, ’and their undaunted bravery to nn an­ cestry dating back to the time when the foothills of the Cumberland moun­ tains, iht- streams and valleys tributary to the' Sandy were first settled by a race di intrepid Indian hunters and trappers, followers of Boone, Kenton, Arbuckle, and other leading spirits. Many of these men married Indian squaws captured in raids, or purchased from the different warlike tribes that then inhabited this region, and the blo^dof these feminine branches of the ’ kingliest Indians (for tradition and documents still in existence show that the white hunter of that day was still something of an aristocrat, aud seldom condescended to mate with the com­ moner members of the tribes) is at this late day plainly apparent in the tall, straight forms, the keen eves, and long, black hair of many of the older families. To this fact is 'also attribnted many of the peculiarities of tempera­ ment and disposition so anomalous in thia age of intelligence. Around these people, as a nucleus, back in the ’30’s and '40’s of the present generation, all the wild spirits of this part of the country, who were either driven from the large centers of population by vio­ lation of some statute or by cfioiee, seem to have been attracted by some occult magnetism, until the Big’ Sandy country became known throughout the country as tbe home hud hiding-place of hundreds of the wildest c haracter* The Big Sandy raftsmen became known throughout the country as the wildest, most dangeroas class’ of men on the Ohio River. Their carouses, their lore of fighting or anything which partook of desperation and dev­ iltry is still a familiar theme from Pittsburg to Cincinnati. Hundreds of Kories of their dare-devil scrapes arc # still told along the river,\and it was ' not an uncommon thing when several hundred of them had sold their tim­ ber, which they had floated down to Cincinnati in immense rafts and fleets, for them to get on board one of the largest boats which at that day plied the river, on their up trip, and take the captain, pilota, engineers, and oth­ er officers prisoners, and then run the boaf to suit ’themselves. On such oc­ casions a steamboat would become a pandemonium, with several hundred ‘ gigantic devils whooping, yelling. bpittiug tobacco juice against the bulk­ heads, mirrora, or furniture, while other disported themselves with «urdfl and played “old sledge" or “stud­ poker’’ until one or other participant got up dead broke or the affair ended tn a general fight. Upon the hurri­ cane deck some leading spirit would stand in command of the vessel, while another covered the pilot with a pistol or rifle and compelled him to steer the craft subject to the whim of the biggest deVil, who was in command. Below one or two sat around the engine­ room and “jx’rsuadcd" the engineer and-stokers into submission. On these occasions the amount of steam was most Irequently controlled by the ca­ pacity of the toilers, as the boat fairly flew through the water. Every other craft in the legitimate trade gave the •pirate” as wide a berth as possible, running into the bank if necessary to get out of the way. When a town or htmtiug was approached the bell was fast as stalwart arms could pull -tbe rope, while the whistle was blown loud and long enough to awaken the seven sleepers. The citi­ zens «X the town seemed to know by iutuition that the raftsmen had taken pdiSCBaion of the boat long before she cam*’ in sight, and crowds of them would congregate along the hank to the only way to aavo the • '<■ ■ if tho click is brisk sad of sight as though lie had never ex­ isted. Land speculators at one time some years ago were as badly hated as were the officers of, the law, and they fared roughly when caught, although that fact has changed considerably of late. Some years ago a land specula­ tor, whom I will callBrowu, as the story is still a reminiscence to that gentle­ man, and a Baptist preacher started through the mountains toward Cum­ berland Gap. They were riding splen­ did torses. and, of course, carried the old-time saddle-bags with them. They had not gotten into Cracker’s Neck fifty yards before they were halted by sev­ eral armed men, whom they did not see at all until the guns were stuck almost in their face-. They were di-mountedin a jiffy. and while one of the men went through their clothing and saddle­ bags the others stood guardbverthem. The speculator’s papers soon betrayed his business, but the documents car­ ried by the preacher were a puzzle. They were sermons. The speculator was tied to a tree and whipped with wythes most unmercifully, after which his hands wore tied and he was seated on a log while the gang tried to disen­ tangle the preachers documents. They were written in a miserable hand at best, as the preacher afterward admit­ ted. The only thing either of the gang could make out was the title to one of the sermons, “Saved from the Wreck." After ]x>ring over it for some time the leader said to the preacher: “Say, mister, was it a steamboat or train you was blowed up on?" The preacher then told the men that he wan a man of God and that he was merely going through the mountains to North Carolina, where he was gaibg to take charge of a church. After talking the matter over for some time they gave the preacher his horse and other prop­ erty and told him he might go on, but advised him to go back, as he would be more apt to find the devil than God in these mountains. The speculator was cleaned out and started back afoot and advised never to attempt to come into that country again, and I don’t be­ lieve he ever did. Thia is tho character of the country —wild, mountainous and almost im­ penetrable. and thinly populated by a people who are a hundred years be­ hind the times and who to-day aro liv­ ing over again in a somewhat modified form the lives of their ancestors of a century ago. Is it any wonder, then, that tbe Hatfields and McCoys, the Tollivers, Underwoods, and others of like ilk can and do defy the laws and laugh at the efforts of courts, backed as they often are by companies of sol­ diers and even batteries of artillery? Nothing but a greater civilization can or will remedy these troubles, but that seems now in a fair way of accomplish­ ment, us several railroads are projected and more than one commenced through tho hills and valleys of this rich but at present almost valueless country.

Chicago is the wonder of the world in its marvel­ - ou» growth and development, and those who visit ft for the first time will find it difficult to realize that, leas than half a century since, the yells of bloodthirsty savages echoed across a swampy waste where now the cheery whistles of a thousand arriving and de* parting trains daily send their music ringing among the grandest business blocks and most palatial residences in the world. One thing will astonish the stranger—the city has no antiquities to show; everything is new, modern, progressive. Chicago has few old land­ marks—perhaps no city in the country so few—and its enormous ]»opnlation, nnd the vast throngs that yearly visit it. see-changes that resemble the mag­ ical transformations from an enchanted wand. What the fire of 1871 did not destroy time in its ravages has caused to decay or crumble, and only a few tablets or monuments mark spots that, in the annals of local history, are cher­ ished and revered. The old landmarks of London, Paris, New York, Boston, and other large cities aro celebrated and preserved; but they were built to stand—of iron, of stone, of brick«or of heavy woods — while in Chicago the early remoteness of the prairie site, the paucity of stanch building material, the fear of Indian onslaughts forced frail and in­ secure construction. Hence, he who visited the lake city a quarter of a cen­ tury since looks in vain for once famil­ iar structures that are. now only a memory of the past. The old is ever disappearing in the rush of modern progress, ami sharp contrasts, rapid changes, marvelous improvements are the result. The water-works, the old Baptist University, the Illinois Cen­ tral Railroad de|>ot, the Ogden man­ sion and a few such places are still in existence, but even these will soon be swallowed up in the march of time, which is replacing the old with a new­ line of buildings that will probably atand for centuries. There is an essen­ tially new Chicago, and it dates from the great fire, and onlv in old prints or from memory can the most ancient resident recall landmarks that were then the chief points of interest in the history of tho city. The earliest view of Chicago, after it had really become a growing town, is extent. The street depicted was re­ ferred to as being positively impres- I rive with its rush and traffic, and its ' planked roadway wax alluded alluded to to as as , ______ ____ , ay was something wonderful. Its buildings were considered marvels of fine archi­ tecture, and tho fact that a bridge was about to be built comprised an event in local progress. Wheie a few omni­ buses then ran. now some twenty diverging lines of horse car* und cable ears center, and the entire structures located cn the street in 1856 cost less than many single blocks now represent in value. ’ At that date Chicago had throe great markets—one in each division of the city. The one illustrated is that which was located on the site of the Hay­ market massacre, where tbe anarchists threw the bomb which cost the Chicago police force *o dearly. It was the great meat and vegetable distributing jxrint of the Wejt Division, and near by was the haymarket for farmers. It was the tnwn hall, forum and police station of that section of the city, and was torn down some rears before the tire of 1871. There are few natives of Chicago who will be able to recall the nld mar­ ket. even when assisted by the picture. It has been almost forgotten, yet here in the early fifties the rich aud poor were wont to come from all parts of the prairies, that then constituted the West Division, and gossip and buy supplies for the day at the various stalls, much as is the prevailing custom in Philadelphia, Baltimore and other Eastern cities now. Then there were only thirty thousand people here, and one mile west of the river civilization practically ended. The center of the division had an old tavern called the Bull’s Head, but that was considered almost out in the country. An oldtimer claims that be had the delirium tremens at tho Bull’s Head tavern in 1856, and twenty years later under­ went the same experience on the same rite, only the tavern had been super­ seded by the Woahingtoniau Home. It was just west of this point that mur- IB 18 0! OS BARDOLPH 8TRZET IS 1866. reprodueed herewith. It shows old. Fort Dearborn block house, the arena of many an attack and massacre^ the lighthouse, plain and primitive; and the Marine Hospital. All these atruafinres disappeared many years since, but in the early forties they formed the most interesting portion of a city that owned most of Chicogp at one time, and wljo sold the magnijfieent lake front for &- song, aud gave away valuable acres as pav for a cord of wood. Mark, it is stated, had very few articles of bed or table linen in those primitive days, and about breakfast time he would creep into the room of eonre strange guest, utter terrific veils, make him shrink under the bedclothes with the belief tliat Indians were attacking the place, snake oft the sheet, and take it down stairs for use ns a table­ cloth. The Lake Street House now occupies u corner ont> square west of its original location, and thousands pass tho neatly renovated structure daily and little dream that it is one of the ancient structures of the city. • The early water system embraced a pumping works near the lake, in the north division of the city, and reser­ voirs in the south nnd west divisions. Tbe one located in the latter,section is delineated by the artist, aud was a pleasing contrast in its style to the massive square structures usually erected in that line. The general level of the city did not require any great ejevntion iu the reservoir, and the water was pumped from the lake into it, and thence distributed. Now the west division has two independent pumping works, with tunnel instead of water main supply avenues of its own. It will lie difficult for the stranger to believe that twenty yexr* since most of the land now occupied by the fashionable residences south of the city was a mucky swamp. Ev.eu to the west, where the laud rises, there were spots that were under water many times io the year. A perfect system of dra'nage nnd grading has done away with theie malarial places, aud in its drives, as in its salubrity, Chicago 1ms come to equal any city in the world. In 1856 tho Tattle Woods, located about two miles from the river, was considered the primeval forest by English literature, says the New York Sun. He has a peculiarly slow, drawl ing manner of speaking. It happened not so very long ago that Ithaca woe visited by a very high wind that came up suddenly during the night, blowing down trees, tearing off the roofs ot houses, and cutting up such other capers as are the usually accorded privileges of a high wind. ’ Tho Professor was living in Cascadilla. the big dormitory. Tbe first intimation ho and his wife had of the hurricane was when one of the big stone chimneys wax blown over anxl went crashing down through the .sky­ lights. The Professor's wife was in an agony of terror, and. getting up from bed. began fomake hasty preparations fdy leaving the buildiug. all the while beseeching her husband, who had not yet stirred, to come ont and assist. All at once, with a frightful noise, the great tin roof of the building was torn off by the wind. With a scream Mrs Corson said to her complacent spouse *. “Oh. Hiram, come, do come. The last day haa surely come." Aud the only retqiouse she got was the drawling inquiry: "Wbat, in tho night?” Curious and Ghastly. A unique piece of handiwork___ has_ just been completed by Mrs. Sophia Laramore. of Waterbury, Conn., who is now approaching* her seventieth year. It is a mortuary wreath in mem­ ory nf her husband, who was dead nearly five years before the curious sym­ bol was begun.

The marble rapidly rises till it stands iu perpendicular cliffs, 700 to 800 feet high, colored with all the tint* of the rainbow, but mostly red. In many places toward the top it is honeycombed with caves, caverns, arches, and grottoes, with hero and there a natural bridge left from one crag to another, making a ruoxt gro­ tesque and wonderful picture ns our little boats glide along that quiet portion of tbe river so many hundred feet below.

Often I had pasted it therein its quiet corner; no other graves were nigh it, and tangled weeds grew rank above tho for­ gotten dust.

Imagine the luxury of snch a from th# G ove* Not Suffered In a Chnrrh. The rule of tbe early Roman Church was to receive the cuchajistie bread- on tbe bate hand. The faithful were en-. joined to approach tho alter with cleanly washed hands, because in their Lands they received the body of Christ. The communicant was directed to present his hands fo tbe form of a cross. The priest, deposited ths sacred bread on the crossed palm, and the worshiper conveyid it to his mouth with hi* own hand. Tbo cus­ tom of placing ft in tho mouth by the priast gradmlly crept into tha church. There is a decree of tbo Council enjoin­ ing it,' about the close of thr ninth cent­ ury, though nt that dale it had become nearly general. Still, we find tha rale* insisted cn as late as 1549. What seems very singular was tho stringent mandate forbidding a woman to receive the holy communion on tbe bars hand, requiring her to present a white linen cloth (called a dotninieale) for Us reception. If. she happened to come to church without her dominieale she was obliged to retire without communicating. This rule was rigidly enforced as oarly as tho limo of St. Augustine. Martigny explains that it waa not so ordained because women were more unclean than men, bat that tho modesty of tfio bishops, priests aud deacons should not bo offended, while engaged in this great mystery, by touch­ ing the hands of a woman. I have an itidistiuct recollection of a petty controversy in tbe Scotch Church as to tbe matter. Some accounted it dis­ respectful to touch the communion bread with ihe gloved baud.—American NaU» and IfuericH. ________________ Ocumstaiicex Alter Caieiu How great a difference tfie stole of our own affairs makes in tbe way we regard the tbiog* that happen in the world!

Proapecte Flattering for a Good Busi­ ness Season, .and a few of the Reasons Why. The News believes that Nashville will, during the balance of the year 1890 see better times, and do a better business, (which amounts to exactly the same thing) than for many a year past. And if this premise te correct, then there isat present no apparent reason why the improved state of af­ fairs should nbt continue indefinitely. We all know, and there is no dis­ guising the fact, that foi several years past Nashville has teen practically at a stand-still in matters of business, if not actually retrograding. The rea­ sons for this are various, and may not all te seen at n . cursory view, but a few of them are easily seen and may te briefly outlined: Too much of our capital has l»een out at eight or ten per cent., where it benefited but one individual. We have teen careless ateut the approaches to our village, allowing them to become so bad that at times they have liecome almost im­ passable. In fact, a well-to-do farmer living ateut half way between Nash­ ville and Bellevue recently told The News that he could take a load from his place to Bellevue easier than he could bring it the last mile into Nash­ ville either way by. the Rapson hill, or the road south past Jas.

One more dead body has been taken from the debris and this increases tho number of killed to eleven. Others are thought to be bnried under the pile masonry that fell Into tbe alley. Many people were standing in the opening be­ hind the Brunswick billiard hall when the crash camo and it In said that some jf them were buried under the falling mas*. Search is now being made for them. Shortly after midnight the searching party discovered a man In the ruins, and as a large beam had fallen across his body he waa fomewbat protected from-the piles of brick and stone that camo down with the wall. Ho was pin­ ioned to the ground, but tho weight upon him was not sufficient to crush out his life. He could not be reached, how­ ever, on account of the pile of stuff that was above him. and life would surely-be extinct before he could be rescued If he did not reccivo some bodily strength. A peculiar device was resorted to. A rub­ ber tube was lowered to the unfortunate man's mouth, and m this manner be was fed with whiskv. For over fourteen hours he lay fn his dangerous position. Every minute it was expected that tho huge piece of timber would sink and crush out wh'.t life remained In tho man, and tho res­ cuers worked heroically to release him. At Intervals of a half hour tbe mar. was given a little whisky through the tube, and be was able to bear up until he was released. It was 9:45 o'clock Tuesday morning when he wss taken from the ruins, and a cheer went, up from the crowd when they saw that ho was alive and would probably live. The excitement was Intense during the many boars the rescuing party was working hard to get at the man. All this time he was conscious, and he look­ ed up pleadingly at tho men who finally succeeded In saving him. Tho building occupied by the book company was a four-story and basement marble front, facing Washington street Just west of Meridian. Tho fire started shortly before S o'clock, near the fur­ nace of tho sub-basement, and the de­ partment. when it arrived, seemed at a loss to locate the flames and began pour­ ing water Into the front of the building. For two hours the fight hod continued in this way until a majority of the spec­ tators had left, under the impression that the fire was out. About 5:30 o’clock, however, there waa a terrific crash and the entire build­ ing,with the exception of the front wall, fell Inward. At the time a number ol firemen were on tho roof and were bur­ led In the debris, which was piled forty feet high within tbe walls of the burned building. The work of rescuing the living and extricating tbe dead was Immediately begun by at least five hundred volun tears. At a late hour tho following ten men bail been taken out dead; GECRGE FAULKNER.

Mr. Scaipmon wa* of a too progressive nature to confine his energies strictly to the law and ho assumed a prominent part in developing the citv. With W. B. Ogden he was successful In completing the Chicago ’ & Galena Union railroad, and these gentlemen inau'e themselves pioneer* of the present railway system of the Northwest. During this period Mr. Scammon also took ai> active part in the jtollllcal arena, and wa* one of the founders of the Republi­ can party. He then, engaged In tho banking business, forming tho Marino bank, which was the first in Chicago under the general bunking law, was a director of tho State Bank of Illinois, and a promoter of tho Mechanics' National bank.

Washington dispatch; Inquiries have reached the War department from various quarters asking whether there Is any appropriation available to pay tho expenses of veterans' visiting the battle field of Chickamauga for the purpose of aiding In Identifying tho lines upon which they fought. There Is no fund available for that purpo.se. Upon the passage of the Chickamauga park bill, which Is expected early In the summer, ofll ers wll be sent to tho field to confer with all veterans who will gather there to assist In establishing the lines. Until then the time and expense of those visiting the field would be entirely wasted, slur a no one can be there to make an official record of the Informa­ tion gathered or to officially mark points which might be designated by tho visit­ lug veterans. It is announced that all RnMln Import duties will be raised three mouths hence. Thf.

While subject to revision up to the last moment, the schedules have, been fought out so thor­ oughly in committee that the material' changes arc likely to be few. Tbe estimated reduction of revenues from the bill Is In ronnd numbers 960,000,Oue. Some of this is to come from decreased*-Importations because of in­ creased duties. Roughly estimated tbe proposed reductions may bo split up as follows: Sugar. 927.500,’MX): internal revenue. $19,000,000; free list. 11.500,000; tariff schedules, 913,000,000; total, 860.000,009. The Internal revenue features of th. bill are as follows: The entire abolition of all special taxes upon dealers of all ■kinds, commonly known as licenses: the taxes upon snuff will be repealed; farm­ ers and planters growing tobacco will have the liberty to sell to whomsoever they please without restraint, in tbe same manner as any farmer can dispose of any other of the products of hh» land. The tax npon manufactured tobacco will be reduced from eight cent* to four cents a pound; cigars, cheroots, and cig­ arettes will carry the same tax as Is Imposed under the present law. Alco­ hol used In the arts Is free under sub­ stantially the same restrictions as are prescribed In the Senate bill. The re­ ductions In the revenue from these sources will be In round numbers be­ tween 817.030.000 and 819.000.000. The following are the principal provi­ sions In the tariff, schedule—tho chemi­ cal schedule contains but few changes from existing law. There, are some re­ ductions and no advances In duty, and It Is believed that the duties In this schedule will be found below the Senate schedule: The earth, earthenware, and class­ ware schedule remains substantially as In the existing law. There are a num­ ber of Important cliange* In the metal schedule. Existing rates are maintain­ ed upon Iron ore and pig-iron. Barbed wire for fencing is made dutiable at 6-1C cent a pound, which* Is a reduction bolow that of the Senate bill. Railway Iron is reduced to 6-10c a pound, the present rate being 817 a ton, a reduction of about 8» a ton and a re­ duction in the rate fixed by the Senate bill. The duty on steel rails is reduced Si a ton. The duty on tin-plate has been increased to two and two-tenths cents a pound. Pig-tln remains free. Il Is believed that with the encourage­ ment our tin-plate will bo manufactured fn this country. Already wo make the sheet-iron and shdet-stoel, which Is 05 per cent of tho tin-plate, und, with tho assurance that there Is tin in the Black Hills It is thought that a groat Industry will spring up. There Is an Increase on the duty on pocket cutlery, which the committee justify on the ground of tho depressed condition of that industry'ln the United States and tho sharp and ruinous com­ petition that has already been felt from Germany. Hand sowing needles are also placed upon the free list. The new metal alum­ inum Is given a designation for the first time under "metals and manufacturers” thereof, and-Is made dutiable at 37 per cent ad valorem. In tho lumber schedule the duty on sawed boards, sawed planks, and fin­ ished lumber Is reduced 50 percent from tho present rate. There Is a special provision Inserted that in case Canada lays an export duty upon lumber then duties shall bo collected according to tho rates under existing law. The dutv on Sumatra tobacco is In-, creased to 83.75 per pound. There Is san increase generally along the Entire list In the duties upon agri­ cultural products. The duty upon barely Is raised to 30 cents a bushel, hops to 45 cents a pound, buckwheat to 15 conts a bushel, macaroni and vermi­ celli 3 cents a pound, oats 10 cent* a bushel. The duty on agricultural seed* Is Increased. Sugar under and including 16 Dutch standard is made dutiable at 35 per cent and above 10 Dutch standard at 40 per cent. This gives 5 per cent additional duty to the refiners, and as tile standard Is raised from 13 to 16 the people of th® United States will be enabled In oaao the refiners combine to put up the prices to Import sugar which will bo in every way lit for family use. This is a cut in the duties upon sugar of from 50 to 60 per cent. Molasses is made dutiable a* 25 per cent ad valorem, the present rate being specific. This is a considerable reduc­ tion. In the wool schedule, wools of the first class, known as clothing wools, 11 cent* n pound: wools of tho second class, known as combing wools, 13 cents* carpet wools valued at 12 cents or -lesa, 3X cents a pound; valued at over 12 cents, 8 cents a pound. This is a re­ duction of 1J< cents a pound from the Senate bill and an increase of. IX cent* from tho present law. DIDN’T TOE THE MARK.

Of course the*watch grew outpf the precedent use of the clock, and it was alxiut GOO years between the first clock and tbe first watch. That is hs closely as one can estimate dates when tbe precise year of either invention is unknown. Tbe invention of the clock ia generally ascribed to the monk Gerbsrt, who was afterward raised to tho tiara, under the name of Pope Sylvester IL The first clocks were cumbrous things, calculated only to be bung to tho wall, and worked with cords and weightv. For a long time they were only need in convents and monasteries, where they helped to make miserable tbe lives of tho inmate*. Oth­ ers say that lhe invention of tho clock was due to the Saracens. However, it wax invented aud for a long time was made in such a large and cumbrous form that no one thought of reducing it to pocket size, home time in the fourteenth century the escHpement w^a introduced in what is known ns Do Wyck's cluck* This allowed of reduction in size, but it the idea to have gotten into men's minds that tho clock might be made sms!*, enough to carry tn tbe i ocket, nr to hang as nn ornament upon the person. The city of Nuremberg claims to have made the first watch in 1477, snd Peter Hell, of that city, made watches of steel • a early as 1490. Il is certain that the first watches wore called Nuremburg eggs —a fact that identifies both tbe place of making and tbe shape of the watch. The works were inclosed in circular metal cases, and .were hung from the girdle. They generally suggested the idea of tho egg. The first English watches were made upon a different principle. They had weights and were used ns a pocket-clock. The earliest mention made of one nnder its present name is of a watch belonging to Edward VI. *> being “one latum or watch of iron, tbe ca»e being likewise of iron guilt, with two plcimtm'ts of load." Such early watches bsd qplr one hand, and required to bo wound up twice a day. The dials were of silver end braes, the cases bad no crystals, but opened at the back and front, and were four or five inches in diameter—about tbe size of a common, dessert plate.

By many it is believed that the term “all” is a corruption of “auld" or “old," time making it “Old Fools’ Day,” iu support of which a very ancient Ro­ man calendar speaks respecting tho first of April, “tne feast of old fobls v remained to this day.” but the oldest almanacs extant all have it “All Fools’ Day.” Again, with the Roman Saturn­ alia and tne Druidical rites, supersti­ Ganymede, lhe woiks are contained in early Christians the body of tbe eagle, which opens across tious which the in existence when they the center and displays the dial plate found began their labors in England, was the richly engraved with scrolls and flowers.

These wore worn as ornaments, and are a fair sample of the extremes to which fsKhion will sometimes go. Early in the seventeenth century all these strange forms passed out The watch-makers succeeded in making tbe watches more compact «nd they assumed substantially tbeir present form, except that in order to protect tho koy.holo they were)surrounded by n large silver case. This gave them the shape of the flat turnip und the popular voice irreverently called them "turnipwatches." Tbe outer case was usually the repository of sundry versea and devices—tokens of love or Jriendship—which, although generally printed on satin, or more frequently worked with the needle, were always designated watch papers. Sometimes they were poetical conceits like the fol> lowing: iplov; ■ rnJoy; ot these pocket-clocks, as did his con­ temporary, Charles V. Watches seem to have come into a wider use about that time In France than in England, for they were named with clocks in a statute en­ acted in Paris in 1544. All the earlier watches were extremely rude measurers of time, and the necessity of frequent winding is alluded to by Shakspoaro iu "Twelfth Night,"where he makes Malvollo say: "I fro wit the while. with some rich jewel. The first great improvement of the watch— the substitution of springs for weights—was in 1560. These springs were not coiled, but were only straight The French were the first to introduce judicious improvements in weight and size. A watch that once belonged to Charles I., having been presented to him by Louis XIII., was of an oval shape, two inches by one and a half on the face, and an inch thick. Tbe back is chased in high relief with a figure of St. George conquering tbe dragon. Tbe motto of the Garter, "Honi soil oui mnl y pense," surrounds tbe cave, which ia enriched with, enameled colors. There was one exception to tbe grotesque forms which went out of fashion in the seventeenth watches mndc in tho form of a cross and intended to be hung by a ring to the girdle. They are sometimes called abbess watches, but for no good reason.

We look at a distant star, we see it night after night, aud would continue to do so if it should be de­ stroyed; it takes so long for ite light to reach the earth that a jicrson look­ ing a hundred years would fail to miss it. If the sun were a ball of fire, as the ancients supposed it to l>e. and a person had an arm sufficiently long to reach it, be might hold it there and burn it on the sun for centuries and would never feel it, it would take so long for the sensitive nerves to convey the pain to the brain that distance, nearly a hundred million of miles. Think of it! The diameter of tho sun, sniall aa it appears to us, is seven hundred nnd seventy thousand geo­ graphical miles, the earth bnt eight thousand, or one hundred and twelve times smaller than the sun. The volume of the sun is one million four hundred and seven thousand one hundred and twenty-four times greater than tbe earth, and six hun­ dred times greater than that of all the *planete known to astronomers taken together; its aggregate mass is three hundred and fifty-nine thousand five hundred and fifty-one times greater than the earth, and seven hundred and thirty-eight times greater than all the rest of the planets put together. A single spot seen upon ite surface has been estimated by astronomers and the leading mathematicians to extend over an area seventy-seven thousand miles in diameter, and a cluster of spots have been estimated by the same authorities to include an area of three million seven hundred nnd eighty thousand miles. When we bring or­ dinary mathematics to bear in measur­ ing these spaces, weighing these weights, it is almost equivalent to au attempt to measure tbe water of a lake with a chemist's graduate, or the depths and weight ot an ocean writn a draughtsman's compass aud protractor. Comets. The ocean, as well as the land, has its different botanical regions; and changes of vegetation are observable with the depth analogous to the varia­ tions of terrestrial planets with the height. Marine vegetation seems to have its vertical extent determined by the range of light iu the water, which varies with the power of tbe sun and the transparency of the water. This marvelous age, thia century of gigantic intellectual achievement, has been especially rich in brilliant cox^ete visible to the naked eye. . The large comet of 1811 was exceedingly fine; the head measured one hundred and twelve millions of miles in diameter, and the tail was no leas than one bundred and twelve millions of miles jn length. The comet of 1843 was visi­ ble in full day, and of all cometa known it approached nearest to the sun. Doneti’s comet, in 1858; is the most famous of modern times. Motas ot Ua’ly Interest.

AlUa'a Cold »*th. A daintv little figure in a brown cloak, with scarlet hood, mittens and scarf. A new shicing sled on which “Dexter” was painted in glowing colors. A smooth, glistening crust over the snow, and a brown, curly dog to race and bark as they flew down the long hill. Jake stopped his work at the wood­ pile to watch them; he almost wished that he was a little girl with red mit­ tens and a now sled. The sled flew down lhe hill, across tho little flat, and plump into the brook!. Allie gave a great cry. Jake dropped his axe and ran into the house. “Mrs. Hood! Your little girl's gone slid herself clear into the brook !” “Then do you go and get her out!* cried mamma. Jake started, but the crust that held Allie so nicely proved too thin for his heavy fco!, and he sunk in deep at ♦■very step, making such slow progressthat mamma, who was watching him, called ont: “Lio down and roll, Jake—roll fast;* So down he went and began to roll, slowly at first, bat gaining speed as he advanced, until, when be reached the foot of the hiU, he too came near going into the brook. Mamma watched him until he disap­ peared from sight. The brook wa» very shallow, but the banka were high, and the deep snow made them still higher. Soon Jake drew Allie up, followed by her sled, and proceeded to climb out himself. Going up the hill proved slow work, as he now went down at every sfep, and rolling up hill waen’i very easily done. So he sent Allie on , ahead, and he followed, drawing the sled. Poor little girl! her clothes were wet, and her shoes filled with the icy water. **Hnn, Allie! Run just as fast as you cau!” cried mamma. And she did run, and scon reached tho warm sitting-room, where there was n bright fire. Then she was lolled in hot blapkete, and tucked up cosily on the lounge, and being tired with her run up the hill in her heavy, watersoaked clothing, soon fell asleep. And, do yon believe it! She didn't take the least bit of cold! But now, when grandma gives one of her favorite lectures on the value of cold baths, Allie fails to be convinced, and savs: “Well, if grandma had tried it as I have,' she wouldn’t think it so very nice!"—Waverly Magazine.

Washington dispatch: Tho House has passed lhe world's fair bill bv a vote of 203 yeas to 49 nay* after an amendment was adopted changing th* date of opening to May 1, 18BL Th® contest was admirably conducted. lie fticce^sful Issue has not unduly elated the Chicago contingent, because It wah a foregone conclusion. The New York and St Louis Representatlves camo down handsomely, and the laU fragment of opposition to Chicago has disappeared. Tho country is now united to make lhe exposition an achievement of supreme splendor. The . scenes in lhe House were Interesting to crowded galleries, and at times exciting In themselves. When the final vote In approval of tho bill was announced the spectators broke Into cheers. Mr. Candler, chairman of the special fair committee, called attention to the stipulation that the debate was'to end at 4 o’clock and the vote taken at once. He said said that the time of those In favor of thn bill would be controlled by himself and the time of those against the bill by Mr. Flower of New York. The world's fair bill was then read bv the clerk. The rending of the bill ended Mr. Candler said ho desired to offer some amend monte. The first, unaalmonsly reported by the committee, added tosection 6 a provision for-tho appoint­ ment by '-he national commission of a board of lady managers to be associated with them and to perform such duties a* might be assigned to thorn. The amend­ ment was adopted without objection. A second amendment, also agreed to with­ out dissent, provided for a separate building for the fish commission exhibit. Mr. Candler then addressed tho House on the merits of the bill. It was a matter of gratification rather than of regret, said Mr. Candler, that these three great cities had contested for tho location of tho fair. It was becom­ ing the patriotism of the republic that great municipalities should thus vie with each other for tho privilege of celebrat­ ing tho discovery of the new world. The Issue of an exciting contest in the House has been to locate the exposition in Chicago. It had been thought expe­ dient. therefore, to change in some par­ ticulars tho original bill so It might bet­ ter subserve the interests of the fair. Tho substitute offered by the com­ mittee for the original bill had been accepted by tho World’s fair committee ’ xnd was. the speaker ventured to say, generally satisfactory to all Interested. In regard to an appropriation for the fair ho said that tho gentlemen ought not to object to that. Such an appro­ priation hod been mode for the Phila­ delphia exposition, tho New Orleans exposition, and tho Atlantic fair. Mr, Kilgore of Texas, a*Ked If the money was not loaned to Philadelphia and re­ paid. Mr. Chandler said tt was not; that $160,000 had been given for the pur­ pose of lhe fair outright by tho Na­ tional government. . 4 Chicago has done more than we ex­ pected her to do In preparing for the* fair, said Mr. Candler. Five millions »f dollars have been raised by tho citizens of Chicago—95,000.000 that are as solidly secureJ as though by promissory notes; but they have not stopped there; In ad­ dition to these 35,000,000 they guaran­ tee thal another $3,000,000 shall ba raised, making in all SI0,000,000. They have secured this by guarantees by business men who have a national reputation for probity and financial judgment. But tho committee has not stopped there. They have pul in the bill an additional check, and that Is that tho President of tho United States shall not Invite forlogn governments to participate In tho exposition until 910,­ 000,000 are raised, as provided for. Mr. Belden of New York said: “Mr. Flower, Mr. Hatch, and myself have signed a minority report objecting to this bill. Wo object to It because In our opinion Chicago has not given proper guarantee to raise 310,000,000. and with­ out this amount we do not think tne fair will bo a success. The Chicago rep­ resentatives on this commltteo have shown us no subscription Hsu They have given us no statement, no signed guarantee, nothing that we can put onr fingers on. I asked for the subscrip­ tion list and I was told that I might look at tho list In confidence, but that .. „ o.. — ~«..I must not make It public. The first name on that list was that of Mr. St. John and opposite It a subscription of $395,000. I asked tho chairman white that meant, and ho gave me an ex­ planation I could not understand. I gathered that a meeting had been held by citizens of Chicago aud $393,000 promised, and that is the kind of a guarantee they want us to accept. This supplementary provision make* the guaranty 810.000.000 absolute or tnero'will bo no fair. Speaking upon the amount of the contemplated appro­ priation, he said that $15,000,000 waa not an extraordinary amount, and it should be remembered that only $320,000 was to bo appropriated for the present fiscal year Mr. Candler then offered an amend­ ment in his original motion, to be con­ sidered as pending, providing for th® dedication of the buildings of th® world's fair with appropriate ceremo­ nies, October 12. 1892: and further pro­ viding that tho exposition shall be opened to visitors not later than May 1, 1393 and close not later than October 30. 189 HeTtald that this postponement was not asked by Chicago, but he thought thalli would Inure to the benefit of the exhibitors who were to take part tn the - exposition. The House agreed to Mr. Candler's amendment postponing the fair uut'.l 1893.

Let us ait down, for I am fatigued with anxiety m A bird was twittering ia the above him when Mr. Drane awoke. His the opening of .his eyes, and as he looked up at the gray sky ho murmured: For a full minute be sat there, his lungs filled with tbo freshness of morning, his mind with the shallow cxhiloration consequent upon the-last fumes of intoxication; his legs stretched out at a preposterous angle, bis hands plunged into his trousers’ pockets, his hat defiantly poised upon his left ear. He looked at bls shabby boots and shab­ bier trousers and. smiled in infinite amusement. “A man in my circumstances," he thought, "would never Imagine that a bundle of rags may ill conceal so much real joy. Glorious morning. Lucky to see it, by Jove.” .. This was a fatal reflection. "My circumstances?*' he continued. “What are they? These are not mine as all. They belong to someone else." His eyes were fixed at the moment upon a rent in his trousers which ad­ mitted a small detachment of cool, morning breeze fresh from the sea. The smile on his face gave way to an ex­ pression of disgust, and ho sat up in sudden irritation. This movement caused a sharp pain to shoot across bis back, which reminded him that tbo way of the transgressor is hard. And then tho full, delightful, cussodness of the situation dawned upon him. What should ho do? What could ho do? He sat up again and looked hopeless­ ly about. Upon a bench not fifteen paces away . was a young woman, evidently a servintof some kind, for her dress was of plain material, set off with big white cuffs at the sleeves, and such a frill of lace at tho neck os only ladies’ maids wear. Her face was con­ cealed by a kerchief which she held to her eyes, and which Mr. Drano doubted not was in a process of lachrymose drenching. Ho watched her with languid interest, wondering stupidly what brought her there at such an hour, whether she had been locked out and feared a reprimand or discharge when sbo should go home, whether, perhaps, she, too, hod indulged too free­ ly in—bah.! Mr. Drane recoiled in pro­ found horror at the suggestion. Was it possible that a mere accidental change in circumstances, tho mere ac­ coutrement* of the slums, should make him capable of entertaining for an in­ stant such a thought xbot< a woman? Was a man to be the victim of his gar­ ments? In silent reparation for his unuttered offense Mr. Drano began vigorously to think all manner of pretty things about the unhappy'young woman, insisting to himself that she must be beautjful, in­ nocent, injured, lovely and so on, until presently, his adjectives having been three times exhausted, ho had worked . your finger to dq her an injury, sad break every bone in your body!" , “Well, take th* chippie and—" Mr. Drone lost patience and knocked the fellow down. It was. a straight, quick blow and it closed tho disturb­ ance as well as tho right eye of the man who received it He staggered to I his feet, growled something about th* _ police and walked rapidly away. I Mr> j)riine turned to the lady’s maid, | very wm leaning heavily > a tree, i - I did not frighten you," “I trust that he said. “Perhaps I should have been less violent." The maid did not^eply at once. She looked nt Mr. Drane in a daso of sur­ prise until a faint color crept into her cheek acid a suspicion of a smile crossed her lips. Then Mr. Drane remembered. Ho glanced at bls remnant of a.hat which ho hold in ills hand, and his eyes immediately fell, but he found no com­ fort in^his boots, where they rested. All his gentility departed on the instant, and ho shifted awkwardly, trying to speak and merely mumbling. With the same irresistible gaueherio he passed his hand over his chin, and tbo rough stubble there gave further evidence of' his absurdly miserable situation. The young wpman seemed to realize some­ what of his emotions, for her face ipstantly became serious and she said, Still this same irritating condescen­ sion from a lady's maid! Mr. Drane thought ruefully of hia bedraggled ap­ pearance and admitted that appearance* justified it What becomes of tho fine when‘every body eStimatos him by bls apparel? How can the ragamuffin main­ tain his own pride when he knows that tho rest of the world iu against him? It ia folly to kick against appearances, and what is folly is useless, and what is use­ less should not be held; ergo, a man who appears to be a Vngaliond and disreputa­ ble is a vagabond and disreputable, and so much tho worse if he stubbornly en­ deavor to maintain tho contrary. Such was tho bitter train of reasoning in­ dulged by Mr. Drane as ho and tbo fair young widow wont to tho bench from which sbo had been driven, for she was fair, notwithstanding sundry evidences of a sleepless night, and interesting Ln spite of her big cuffs and lace frill. "To begin, ns a woman must, at neither end of the story," aho began when they wore seated, "you must knew that I poHsoss immense wealth." Mr. Drano rose quickly “I beg your panion far the Interrup­ tion,” ho said, "but do you happen to havo any of that with you?" . / “Alas! no," she replied, dismally, “awl that is not tho worst of it." ■ “It's as bad as it can bo for the mo­ ment," Mr. Drano insisted, as ho re­ sumed bis scat “You see, J would have been very glad to give you my note for five hundred if you had it convenient" Tho young woman looked at him search I ngly. “I should lib wicked if I did not de­ sire to help you, poor man,” she said, gravely, “and I trust the time may come speedily when I shall be able.to do so.” Mr. Drano was stung, but not crushed. “You must understand." ho exclaimed, “that I should repay it I've got plenty of money, that is, there's plenty be­ longing to me, and 1 can get it if I can only prove my identity.” Tho young woman's eyes were dilated with wonder and doubt "Strange!" she said, slowly, “for that is exactly my own case. You shall tell mo your story presently. Listen to mine. I became an orphan at an early age, and until a little more than a year ago I lived with my guardian, a warm friend of my father’s, Ln Buffalo. At tho time of which I am about to speak with some particularity I had just at­ tained my majority, so that 1 controlled what little property bad been be­ queathed to me, I still lived with my guardian, however, and had not thought seriously of the fact that I was at last absolutely a responsible being in the world. There had been some suitors for my hand, but to none had I shown tho least favor. That they were all sin­ cere I havo no doubt, for my fortune was too slight to be a temptation. Among them was a singular young man of reftly immense riches. He was gen­ erally credited with being the possessor of thirteen millions." "Deuced unlucky figure," interposed Mr. • Drane. . "You shall see." said the fair nar­ rator. “I could not bring myself to feel towards this young man as I believe a woman should towards a husband, al­ though I hnd no reason to entertain any thing but respect for his character. My guardian pleaded with mo to make a match so palpably desirable, but 1 could not consent. It was while this matter was pending that some of my associates arranged to give an amateur theatrical performance for tho benefit of a charita­ ble institution. As fortune, or perhaps shrewd design, would havo it, this wealthy young man and 1 were/cast for opposite parts. I had plainly rejected his proposals to me. but he would not take no for an answer, and he persisted in atjuict, good-natured devotion that I could not resent, but which began to grow irksome, until st last I-feared that I should have to marry him in order to be free from him. I was in this half tormented spirit when wo mot ono night at a private house for rehearsal. “Ho was always insisting that we should go over our love scenes again and again, und tho others who under­ stood the situation sided with him. A: the end of that evening, having teased mo as much as possible, he suggested that wo carry tho story of our play to ite logical conclusion by rehearsing a marriage ceremony ‘It's something we must all come to,’ he said, 'and I imagine that a fellow would feel much better before the altar if he had learner^ how to go through the motions.’ The others, silly young things! were fired with tho idea and without further thought arranged the furniture so ns to represent an altar, tho chancel rail and all that." "A very reprehensible proceeding.’' commented Mr Drane. The young woman was about to proceed when a gray-posted officer, one of those guardi­ ans of publie parks Ironically known as "sparrow chasers." stepped up and addressed Mr. Drane: "Bay, youa, do you think nobody else don't want to sit down? I let you sleep off your jag here, see? an' it's ’bout time “I am sure I owe very much to your kindness, your courage, your muscle. Truly I am very grateful." Mr. Drane know that ho was blushing, and bo wondered whether his face were clean enough to show it. He looked up and saw tho young woman's blue eyes regarding him compassionately. “I feel as if I must apologize for ad­ dressing you at all, miss," be half stam­ mered. "I forgot my—well, my loath­ some appearance. It Isn't mine, it isn't my fault; in fact, I am not exactly tho thing you see." "Oh, forgive mo if I have appeared to notice any thing but your goodness, sir," exclaimed tho young woman, ap­ proaching him impulsively assho spoke; "you have doubtless been unfortunate, perhaps soon hotter days. I am sure you are a gentleman at heart, and I am grateful. Indeed I am, believe me," and without further ado she took his hand and pressed it warmly in both of hers. Mr. Drano winced. There was tho most delicate condescension in her manner and tone; her action said what words would havo rendered offensive: "See, I recognize your nobility of character, no matter bow ugly is your disguise, and I am not ashamed to acknowledge it" To be thus treated by a servant! Yesterday this interesting young per­ son would havo 'stammered in his pres­ ence, bung her head, and would havo been overwhelmed at receiving a serv­ ice at his hands. Now, forsooth, she speaks grandly, airs her superiority, condescends to grasp Mr. Lawrence' Drone's hand! Tho unhappy man began to experience profound resentment at this conceited lady's maid when a sur­ prising change in her manner aroused his curious interest She let fall his hand as impulsively as she had seize I it, blushed painfully and looked at her white little hands which she folded be­ fore her/t "Alas! I forgot,” she said, and her lips trembled. "You can not under­ stand, of course. Oh, dear! oh, dear! You see, I. too, am not at all what you see me, or what you think I am.” Mr. Drane hastened to give the He to his recent emotions. "I am sure, miss," ho declared, gal­ lantly, •„*! havo seen you and thought of you only as a lady in distress to whom' it has been my unalloyed pleasure to snx did.x’t ha.it: her wealth with her. render some small assistance.” The young woman looked up again. himself into a fair frenzy of interest Her eyes were brimming with tears, about her.

It was-carrled to too courts and so decided. Behold me, then, a widow with great wealth. Tbo situation was not wholly pleasant, for people talked and suitors camo in troops. So I went abroad. Yesterday I arrived in America again. I know nothing of this city, and yielding to my maid's advice I went to the Adams Hotel. That was in the early aftornoon. My trunks were to follow mo this morning. Fatigued with the worry of landing and the waiting for customs officers and feeling the approach of a sick headache, I retired.. About six o'clock I awoko re­ freshed to find that my maid had disap­ peared with my olothing, my band-baggago andjsll my money. She had left mo what I now wear, which I was forced to put on. The clerk of the hotel very impudently discredited my story; said that my mistress hod paid the bill und gone, and that I was to follow her to the St. Cloud. Ho added, moreover, that two games of the kind in ono day were more than he could stand. 1 was not clear as to his meaning, but I under­ stood him to refer to some man who hod attempted to impose upon the house earlier in the day with a similar story." "Yes, that was me," groaned Mr. Drane, ungrammatically. “I n sheer desperation." continued toe hapless widow, "I went to tho SL Cloud, but, of course, found no traco of my maid. Since then I have wandered about most of the time in this park, supperless, sleepless and, until you in­ terposed, friendless." ?‘Madam," said Mr. Drane, when sho <m lb. wklk "Take the young woman in, Charley," said toe first, laconically. “This is an outrage!" exclaimed Mr. Drone, and then that quick, dismal philosophy recurred to him ahd ho saw that it was all perfectly natural.

Dazed, mortified, crushed, Mr. Drane could neither speak nor move, and the policeman drew back his club to per­ suade him into motion, but the blow did not reach him.

I thought it would bo swind­ ling you not to buy it. You'd have to tpay so much more, if I should happen to need some in the future. Don’t you see, love?” Mr. Kesterson put his hands in his pockets and leaned back in his chair. He had not been married long enough to make him either callous or irritable regarding requests for money. “Well, no. my dear; I can’t exactly way I do. What is it you need ?" “A new hat to wear Easter Sunday." Mr. Kesterson laughed. “Now. why in the world do women always want a new bonnet for Easter ? I don’t buy a new hat because Lent is over. Well, well, how much will the lionnet cost?" “I don’t want a bonnet.” corrected Mrs. Kesterson. “I want a hat.

How much?” “I don't know, but I did see just tho very one J want. It was in Palmer's window—tho loveliest hat. all sage,-green velvet and surah, and the cunningest little curly tips." Mr. Kesterson smiled more broadly. ■He rose. He kissed his wifo. “Money is very scarce, my dear, but _ 111 see—I’ll see!" And he shrugged * ’ himself into his light spring overcoat and betook himself down-town. If not exactly an old man’s darling, Mrs. Kesterson was the adored wife of a man considerably older than herself. But than she was barely 20.

The conociousneas of a kind deed contemplated seemed to keep his feet as well as his heart warm. “Wonder if she thought me indi(fer-ant to her request. She’ll know betteT'this evening.

That very evening, as mute and miserable they sat in the parlor, who should be usher­ ed in but Mr. and Mrs. Charles Kent. And Mrs. Kent wore her new hat. She to come! And wear it! The insolence of it made Mrs. Kestersor grow white as death. But what was that Charley Kent was saying in that rollicking voice of his? “Look here.

And when he had paid for it and given the address ho aud Kesterson walked out and over to Kinsley's, where on the strength of their good deeds they treated them­ selves to a very choice luncheon. Meanwhile the intelligent and dis­ criminating saleslady boxed and for­ warded Mrs. Philemon Kesterson's terra-cotta bonnet to that lady, but inclosed Mrs. Philemon Kesterson's caid with Mrs. Charley Kent's green velvet hat. “Not at home?' “No, ma’am, but she will be soon.

The Bad Egg’s Revenge. Tbe Slaael Cake. A very curious old Easter custom in Shropshire and Herefordshire, Eng­ land, is to make a rich and expensive cake called a itimnel cake. The cakes are raised and the crust is made of fine flour and water with enough saf­ fron to give it a deep yellow color. The interior is filled with materials of a very rich plum cake, with plenty of caudied lemon peel and other good things. They are made up very stiff, tied up in a cloth and boiled for several hours, after which they artT brushed over with an egg and . then baked. When ready for sole the crust is as hard as if made of wood, a circum­ stance which has given rise to various stories of the manner in which they have at times been treated by persons to whom they were sent as ;>rescnte, and who had never seen one before, one ordering his simnal to bo boiled to soften it, and a lady taking hers for a footstool. They are made of different IT EXPLAINED EVERTliriXG. She went up to Dore and began talk­ ing to her rapidly, cordially, affection­ ately. She could haar the gentlemen jesting over the mistake, their pur­ chases, and her husband saying bow he had bought the wrong hat after all. The evening passed delightfully. Philemon looked at his wife iu sur- universities, at tho latter of which in­ stitutions he received the degree of Ph. D. His parents bad intended that he should study for the ministry, but having had a tadtc of what literary life and activity ready was, and shrinking from tlie dull vnonotony of a New Eng­ land parson’s life, he at last decided to devote his whole time to making for himself a prominent place in tho world of letters. He held for a bhort time the position of Greek professor at his alma mater. His first literary venture was the publication of a volume of poems, some of which were very beautiful, on the politics of ancient Greece, which were very well received by American scholars. Soon after this timo he opened a very large school for tho in­ struction of youth.

A newsps|>er man came out of an up­ town theater the other night, between the acts, arm in arm with the manager. “Splendid, my boy, splendid." said the newspaper man. “Sure to draw immensely." “Think so. old man?" replied tho manager. “Glad to hear it. Como in hero and let’s drink success to the star.” And they turned into a cafe adjoining the playhouse and speedily brought up before the bar. There they spied-'u well-known man­ about-town, whose acquaintance the newspaper man was rather proud of, and glsid of the opportunity to show his familiarity with tbe millionaire, he seized the opportunity to introduco his friend the manager by name, but omit­ ted to mention his business. “Have something to drink with us," said the pleased manager; “we were just going to wet our whistles when we saw yon. What will you have?” “Well,” replied the millionaire woarfly, “give me a brandy. I declare I have caught a chill listening to that iufepial play next door.” Tableau—Disgusted manager, over­ whelmed newspaper man and a million­ aire becoming gradually conscious that he had put his fool iu it somehow. “Th—th—is is tho manager of that play------- ” began the newspaper man. “My dear air, let me explain,” raid the millionaire. “What I meant to say was that I never can endure pathos, and really the star is so pathetic that “Don’t mention it,” said the manager, “Ta-ta. I must go to the box-office." “That was certainly a devil of a time to tell me of my mistake,** said theduconccrted man-about-town, who rather prided himself at Dever being taken aback.

The little fel­ low thought it over for a long time. Suddenly his face brightened, and he itoppod the “showing off" by shout­ ing: “Why, until they are all gone!"— New York Timet. “Ah, there, baby!” screamed the parrot hid behind a paper which Willie had placed over the cage. The old maid looked startled, says a Philadelphia paper, and a grin ap­ peared on the faces of the other pas­ sengers. “Oh, mamma!" croaked the bird. The old maid glared at each passen­ ger, highly indignant. ' “Where did you get that hat, I'd like to know ?” went on the irrepressible bird. The clerical passenger looked np in alarm and then felt his list in hasty confusion. Every one noted tho ac­ tion, and a ripple of suppressed laughter went over the car. “Ah, there, whiskers!" The clerical man leaped to his feet and frowned at a smooth-faced youuj man near the front. “I won’t be insulted!" he cried. “Ding, ding; two more faros out of the company's pockets.” The conductor Hushed and hastened into the car from tho back platform. “Who said that?” he demanded. Willie looked as demure as an angel. “Johnnie, got your hair ent." An old man with long hair made a precipitate departure from tho car. At Bond street Willie lifted the pa­ per, grabbed the cage, and got off the' car. * Then the passengers tumbled. A Lewiston little boy declared a philosophic independence, and accept­ ed the consequence in so matter of a story, oven if it is not so very funny, says tho Lewiston (Me.) Journal. His mother dressed him up in a new flannel shirt and sent him to school. The shirt irritated his cuticle; or, in other words, he itched. When he camo homo that night be was cio<a, and very cross for a small boy, and he declared ho and the shirt had parted company forever. The next morning, as the mother prepared to dress him for school, the boy drew the lino st the shirt. “No." said he; “I don’t wanter wear that shirt.” A brief debate ensued, in which the boy appeared to have formed his opin­ ion and to have decided to stick to it. The question, when put to the house, was carried by the boy, who would Dot don the shirt “If you will not wear it," said his mo'her, “I shall send you bask to bed." Bkek to bod he went. He got no dinner. Afternoon came. A neigh­ bor went in to see him, his mother telling her that she had a bad boy up stairs. The l>oy lay there in bed wide awake, his little cheeks flushed with the situation, but showing no signs ol change of heart. “Don't you want to go to schdol ? ” asked the neighbor. 'I shall never go to school again “Don’t you want to?” here." “All your life? " “Yes'm,” was the reply; “all my life. I shan't never get up again, pioj/ly." What could a mother’s heart do against so philosophic an acceptance of the termination of a career as this ?

The accompanying cartoon, displaying the spring fashions, has been reduced from the largo drawing published by John J. Mitchell & Co., of New York. Jt shows the various fashions in which the best-dressed men of the country will attire themselves during the coming season. Soft finish will be the ruling mode of making up overcoats and coats, and tbo fabrics shown are all of them particularly attractive. They include tweeds and fine diagonal doth and all the range between. The Covert coat will be ono of the features of the coming season, but the real attraction will be tbe three-button cutaway, which will be the most popular and most numerous ooat worn in 1890. The equestrian -xistumes display the modes which gentleman and lady ndera will employ if they wish to be thoroughly tailor-made. ” fronts are of patent leather, ent in scallops, nnd the silken laces of some bright color, os scarlet or yellow. A notable example is seen in a laced walking loot (Fig. 1) that bos vamp and quarter cut in one piece from dark­ gray mbrocco and patent-leather trim­ mings that extend from the toes up the lace front and around the top. This trimming is made the subject of mu«h ornamentation, taing pinked and perfo­ rated iu fanciful designs, and the stitch­ ing is with colored silk, which shows off to good advantage on the black ground of patent leather. Another peculiarity is that the patent-leather laps over the quarter deep enough to allow a row of buttons to be set in mock button-holes—worked with gray silk—and thus give the foot the ap­ pearance at a side view of the button boot while it has all the advantages of the lace. Another novelty is the “blucher" 2). They are made on the Pic­ cadilly last, which gives that slim effect to the foot now so much sought after in the best grades of fine wear. They are made in different combina­ tions of leathers, patent calf and French enamel Iicing most used. They are ornamented with toe-caps of various designs in outline, with fancy perfora­ tions. On the ladiea’ “bonchers" the front lace-piece is of a different leather from the quarters. The quarters are stitched on the fronA. lace- piece instead of ite being stitched on the outside of quarters as of old. The effect is much handsomer. The front edges of tho quarters are pinked and perforated is a most desirable part of a lady’s toilet. To be right it must be light, comfortable, and of a material that will harmonize with the variety of morning wrappers worn and of neutral colors. Of these there are many styles shown to tickle the vanity of the fair pur­ chaser. Perhaps the most fanciful de­ sign is somewhat of a combination -of slipper and low shoe The material for the quarter , as will be seen, extends around the toe, form­ ing a bonier to the vamp, is pearl­ colored buekskin bound with narrow silk ribbon to match the color of the buckskin as nearly as possible. Pearl­ colored silk is also used for stitching. The vamp is pearl-colored dull kid crossed by narrow, flat silk braid, pink in color, and stitched on each edpe. 'Tbe contrast in colors is enough to give a rieh, dressy appearance without be­ ing so decided as to offend taste or mar the harmony by strong contrast. The same design can be had in almost any color, shade, or combination, which is usually decided upon by the color of the wrapper with which they are to be worn. One of the attractive novelties for evening wear is a slipper (Fig 5), cut very low at the sides, and open across tbe front just above the ball of tho foot. The vamp is cut of glazed white kid, low at the foe and Jong oh the sides, extending back to the thin por­ tion of the shank. The quarter is of kid to match the wearer's dress iu with fancy “Grecian" patterns, or color. It is made up plain so as not to show glitches anywhere on the outside. I pointed, and scalloped wheels. In button boots the latest novelty is The inside ia lined with pearl-colored of French importation (Fig. 3), and kid. The buckle, which is very long first made its appearance on tbe return and bent to fit over the instep, is of of the gushing belles that "did" the oxydized silver, or gold, fire gilt. The frame is open fretwork, and the hands are held by an initial letter or mono­ gram, suited to thenarneof the wearer, the monogram being studded with his wife's father is described as a sub­ stantial yeoman and property-holder. And were it otherwise, were he really in reduced circumstances, he would scarcely have gone to London to better his fortune as writer or actor—re­ sources equally precarious at that time. His course was simply the nat­ ural consequences of his nature, the necessary result of the unerring promptings of his genins. and the spurring of the ambition which always accompanies its possession. Genius cannot be circumscribed—it will lib­ erate and vindicate itself. We have no patience with the sickly sebtimentality of the idea of genius’being hid­ den and lost for lack of opportunities. It creates opportunities; or rather, ii discovers them everywhere, and turns them t.j its advantage. In ShaksjAcare’s case, genius was allied to business sagacity and shrewdness, and to the latter qualities he owed much of his prosperity.__________________ Candid Hospitality. “It ain’t everybody I’d put to sleep in this room,” said old Mrs. Jinks to the fastidious and extremely nervous young minister who was spending a night in B—-. at her house. “This here room is full of sacred as­ sociations to me," she went on; “my first husband died in that bed with his head on these very pillars, and poor Mr. Jinks died sitting right in that corner.

There are manv ways of coloring the eggs; logwood chips,’if used in small quantities, will cause the egg to assume a port wine color, while if more chips are added the eggs will be black. It is impossible to say the exact quantity of chips required, depending on the quantity of water used, but it can easily bo ascertained when the liquid is suffi­ ciently dark by taking up a little in a spoon before putting in the egg. For brown eggs, tail them in coffee; for ye Jow eggs, in onion peelings. Cochi­ neal will make eggs any shade, from a deep crimson to a lovely pink, accord­ ing to the quantity used.'

Do not send very high priced stones, as I do not want to pay more than $125.for the ring and $65 for the pin. I fell down and sprained my ankle last night, and so am unable to visit your store. I am in.a hurry, as I will leave for Louisville to-night if I am able to ride in a cab. Very respect­ fully. Ralph Aujsx.” The firm telephoned to tho Palmer house to find out what waa known thero of Mr. Allen. Tho reply came bock that nothing was known of him except that such a person was "occupying tho room mentioned to which he had been assigned throe days before, without giv­ ing his residence. . William A. Bigler, a salesman for the firm, was sent to Allen's room with a package of diamonds worth nearly. $1,500 In his pocket. He also took with him to tho room Louis Perret, one of the hotel porters, and stationed him just outside tho door. Allen was In his room bathing in warm water the foot ho said he had Injured.- Negotiations for tho diamonds were short. Allen picked out a ring worth $65 and a pin worth $123. “Bundle the rest of them up while I get the money.” said Allen, as he drew the bare foot out of the water and hob­ bled around back of Bigler and bent down to take something from under the mattress on the bed. The salesman was about to look behind him, for ho bad been suspicious all the while, when he was half stunned by a terrific blow on the head.- He got upon his feet arid faced his assailant In time to partly ward off tho next blow. But the heavy cane In Allen's hand, aftor.breaking on Bigler's arm, descended with force enough to cut a wound two Inches long 1n the scalp. The wounded man screamed, and Al­ len. without stppplng to grab the pack­ age of diamonds, rushed out of the room and down the hall-way. Perret, tho porter, followed, but lost the fleet-footed robber in a blind passage way. Cecil Gregg, the time-keeper, saw the thief go into a room on the fifth floor that hap­ pened to be unlocked, and. following him in, found him under tho bed. He was quickly pulled out and taken to the armory. Allen Is about 5 feet 3 inchesJn height, thick-set, dark-complexioned, with a short, stubby black mustache and black hair, worn pompadour.

Y.) dispatch: The old Greeley homestead, which was formerly the. home ot Horace Greeley, being built by him In 1851, has been destroyed by fire. Since MrMJreeicy’s death the house had been owned by Miss Gabrielle Gree’ef, his only surviving child. She was in Pleasantville attending church at tho time of the. fire, and left tho house in charge of Miss Cleveland, her cousin. At about 10 o'clock the lat­ ter detected the smell of smoke. Upon Investigation tiro cellar was found to be In flames. The fin* made rapid proggress, and Miss Cleveland and the ser­ vants were compelled to leave, without being able to save much property. Some of the neighbors, however, managed to Louisville (Ky.) dispatch: The yel­ low .floods of the Ohio, lapping the tops of 'he highest levees and threatening death and destruction to the towns along the river bank*, met a greater horror than any to which It had ever given birth as it rolled on its way the Mis­ sissippi. In the rushing of a mighty wind a giant of the air, leaving wreck and ruin on the prairies oi southern Illinois, swept up tho swollen stream; and in loss than three hours wrought damage which months of work can not repair, and slew scores, perhaps hun­ dred's of human beings. In Loulayllle alone at least ono hun­ dred lives were lost and meager reports or still more ominous alienee indicate* an awful loos of life In other towns. Whole village* are said to have been leveled to the ground, aud there Is reason to believe thot when news from these stricken hamlets comes to the pub­ lic the death-list will reach appalling proportions. First reports led to the conclusion that tho cyclone which laid so much of Louisville In ruins and the wind storm which tore its way across Illinois were not the same, and it is difficult now to explain the wide area of country visited. A general storm raged over most of that part of t.io United State* between the Missouri river and tho Alleghanies and north of the Ohio Thursday evening, and it ii probable that thero were sev­ eral cyclones, tornadoes, and hurricanes. The wejl-known eccentric movements of cyclones would account for tbo wide distance between the .points affected In ■outhern' Illinois and along the Ohio river, and it seems likely that tho cy­ clone which struck Louisville and the one which a few hours earlier had whirled oyer tho southern part of Illi­ nois were'Identical. • Falling upon the country a few miles east of the Mississippi between Cairo and St. Louis; It rose again into the air whence It came somewhere east of Louisville. Between these two points Its course Is only two plainly marked and Its continuous progress established. Special dispatches show that tho cyclone was first felt at Nashville, Car­ bondale, and Murphysboro, three towns lying In a line almost north aud south. The extreme distance between these towns Is about forty-five miles. Tearing its way across tho State to Olney, not far from the Indlafia line. It seems to have turned southward, for It was felt at Evansville, Ind. In the meantime. Metropolis, 111., ou tho Ohio river, had been half wrecked, one person xllled and several Injured, and $250,0)0 worth of property destroyed. Up the Ohio the cyfelone raced and, crossing Into Kentucky, laid tbo country In ruin*. The board of trade of Louisville has made a canvass of the ruined district and tne estimate of one hundred persons killed Is obtained from tho returns. Other estimates place the loss ot life much higher, and it Is not improbable that the story told by the ruins will bear them out. The-board has gone to work with a splendid courage that will command the admiration of the whole country to re­ lieve tho needy and repair the terrible ruin the city has suffered. It sends out a statement that-the loss will not Exceed $2,000,000, and says that tlyiugh the calamity is a great one the resident*? of the city feel able tb cope with it unaided. That aid will 'bo furnished if needed or desired is evident from the ready proffers from neighboring States and cities. It is likely that this generous assistance will be .required by the smaller towns and villages, in. which the people will be less able to face the disaster which has over­ taken them. cited over a poisoning which promises to develop Into one of the most perplex­ ing sensations that quiet suburb has over known. The present Indications are that the easels one of murder. George P.. Newland and his family, consisting of a wife, a son, and daugh­ ter—both grown up—havo lived for years at 6238 Wabash avenue. In a pala­ tial residence Mr., Newland was a well-known resident of Englewood and a retired real-estate roan, living on the interest of his accumulations. Tho other night all four members ot the family . were taken vlolontlv ill. Thov had eaten some canned corn for supper and the •uppoalllun waa tha: they had been pohoned In that manner. Medical «id was called In. but in spite of all that could be done. Mr. Newland, who seemed to have boon the most violently attacked, expired about 3 o’clock next morning. Tho rest of the story can best be told In the words of Dr. Crutcher, who waa sum­ moned by a friend of the NeWlands. “When I arrived, at the hohso." said the doctor. "I found Mr. Newland already dead. Mrs. Newland wasdylna, and the indications wero that she had been poisoned by arsenic. She had suf­ fered alj the symptoms of arsenical poi­ soning. such as Intense burning at the stomach, vomiting, thirst, drinking often and little at a time, and there was no doubt In my mind that she had in some manner taken a dose of ar­ sonic. She was in a state of complete collapse when I saw her. and It was evident that she could not live very much longer. I presume she is dead bv this time, though I have not bear’d. The daughter Grace, who was jxjlsoncd. Is still quite sick but will undoubtedly re­ cover.* Neither she nor her brother Is aware that their father Is dead or that their mothe/Is not likely to recover.' All tho patients are kept In separate rooms. Young Newland, I have no doubt, will also recover. “As soon os I saw that Mrs. Newland was beyond all earthly help I hunted up the can of corn from which the family had partaken and examined U. I could roe, on a casual examination, no reason to believe that the family had been poi­ soned by partaking of tho corn.” The doctor tnen went on to tell of his suspicions in the case. He found out. It seems, that ono of the servants who had been employed about the house borrowed money from Mbs Grace Newland yesterday with which to buy some medicine, as she claimed. The girl returned that night, but ate no supper, and. It Is alleged, has disappeared. Dr Crutcher says no visited the drug store to which tho-girl went and was told that she had pur­ chased there “Rough on . Rats," which contains a very large per cent of arsenic. As the evidence against the gh'. is by no means complete her name is withheld. The surviving members of the family say they ran imagine no reason why any one should attempt to murder them in such a cold-blooded fashion. A later dispatch reports tho death of Mrs. Newland. The servant girl who gives her name as Emma Stark has been arrested and has confessed to buying rat poison but says she intended to kill herself but changed her mind and threw the poison away. She says when she saw that tho family wero taken sick she became frightened lest she should be accused and fled.______________________ WASHTILLS. Pacific Express,............

He amused himself on the way by trying to estimate How long his vital forces would endure miles of walking every day without any renewal of the tissues, and by speculating as to what stage of starvation would be the most painful. Now and again ho became dizzy and almost lost consciousness, which led him to think that perhaps ho had oompas.ied the worst l>art of starvation al­ ready. Mrs. Bowers was at home and she re­ ceived Drano in a liny room, which sho evidently used as an office for her char­ itable work. “Madamo,” began Drane, “I am in circumstances so unusual for me, I am so faint from lack of food that I find it difficult to say whatl wish to. I was in court this morning when you secured tho release of a young lady—” “Ob, yes,” interrupted Mrs. Bowers. “You are tho man who wont to her aid in tho park. H’m. That was a very worthy thing to do,” and she eyed him critically through her glasses. Law­ rence felt so oppressed-by this fresh hu­ miliation that ho hung his head. Mrs. Ikrweni continued: "I should not hare expected it of you. I have made a . long study of human nature, my man, and I warn you that you can not impose on me. So they discharged you. H’m. If you're willing to work I will sendyou s card to a wood yard—" “Madam.” cried Lawrence, "I never have had to work in my life! I don't ask for work; I did not come here to ask any assistance of you. I want to tee the young lady and tell her my story.” “Quite impossible,” interrupted Mrs. Bowers, placidly. “Sho is young and Inexperienced, and I certainly shall guard her against any vulgar imposi­ tion. You make a mistake In refusing work. I can read you closely enough to see that you will recognize your error as soon as you are convinced that I am not to bo imposed on.

Therefore, hero is tho card, and here is a dime to pay your way on tho horse cars." “Madame,” said Drano, huskily, “you have done me injustice and given mo pain that is worse than all tho ills that havo come on me since I arrived in New Y’ork. I decline your charity, and you may rest assured that no extremity of r^lscry will ever make mo regret my course." With that he bowed, haughtily and stalked from tho house, while Mrs. Bowers looked shocked and made an entry in her book of charitable work as to tho evil pride that keeps somo men from acknowledging tho superiority and goodness of others. * (TO ns CONT1SI ED) BEWARE OF OINTMENTS FOR CATARRH THAT CONTAIN MERCURY, aa mercury will aurcly destroy the seukc of smell and completely derauxe the whole ayalemrrfaen entering it through the mucous stirfx-a*.

Words are about the cheapest commodity in the market, and they may be made to sound very effective. We have heard a man talk about the sufferings of the poor In a way to make one shed tears, whose pocket-book was never'known to shed a cent for charity. Talleyrand said that happiness depended on a hard heart aud a sound- stomach. Let the rich and comfortable men and women who fare sumptuously every day, .be confronted with a scene of poverty .and they Are disgusti*d with the squal­ or. It doesn't touch them In the right spot, though—the pocket. A rich man ordered a loqd of coal sent to a poor family in the neighborhood, in the forenoon: but after his dinner he countermanded the order—said the weather had “moderated.” ITactical charity reminds the wo­ man in comfortable circumstance* of the little half worn garments stowed away in chests, and she seeks out nctsdy children whom they will tit. It makes a man think of dependants un­ der him and how he may render them ’more comfortable. It h a glorious thing in Its genulness, and well may it cover a multitude of sins. Rivers have their eccentricities and you cannot always rely upon them. In limes of the greatest commercial prosperity they will sometimes get up a run upon their banka. In the dry season they are very slothful, hardly leaving their beds for days at a time. You consider them poor housekeepers, until some day-you see them get up and sweep every thing tiefore them. Knowing little of fruit genet ally, they are well up in currents. The career of a river is short at thelongi’st, and even then It . H liable to be considerably a-bridgtMl. If arrested in Its course, however, it is judged by a jury of its piers. When a young man runs wild his friends are always glad to see him change bis course. Not sy with a riv­ er: when it changes its course the re­ sult Is often disastrous. Such was the case at Los Angeles, California, re­ cently, when the river of that name after being on a “high” for some time, suddenly changed Its course almost at right augles, Just south of the cityilimits, ruining orchards aud destroying the growing crops.

This, 4u duheartened, almost de­ spairing tones, pro­ ceeded from a palefaced, rather intel­ -lee tual-looking | young man who had FiJjy just entered a lowiWZ ceilinged, grimywalled basement room in the heart of HJR metropolitan ChiCH caS0He paused and turned his back to the open fi—‘-place, where wero burn­ ing, in lieu of coal, the last fragments of a board partition which had once divided the apartment in twain, and looked searchingly around. Except for a rough table, three wood­ en chairs and a lounge, all venerable with age and rickety from usage, the room waa unfurnished. It was not untenanted, though; far from it. Each chair had an occupant; three more were seated on the lounge, while a seventh was reclining upon the table among a mas* of papers, cigar stubs, ink-bottles and pipes. • Not wishing to invade tho domain of the inquiry column and projKrund conundrums, we will explain the situa­ tion. The dismal place was a verita­ ble literary den. Two of those present —the one on the table and tho occu­ pant of one of tho chairs—edited a publication, and did all manner of nack-writing thero, while, with the ex­ ception of a gray-l>earded man, an ex­ banker, tho remainder were genuine literary Bohemians. “Yes, Mr. Jacob." the pale-faced young man proceeded, seeing that no attention hnd been paid c-iiher to his announcement or himself, “my vitality is exhausted!” “Ko?" responded the senior member ot the finu, that paid the rent of the den, or “stood the agent off," which amounted to the same thing, so far as concerned the happy-go-lucky assem­ blage that rendezvoused*1 there' “Yes. Mr. Jacob. Adverse circum­ stances have formed an offensive coali­ tion with the natural weakness of my physical constitution, and collapse, total, ‘verwhelming collapse, threat­ ens all tho functions of ray overtaxed body. Last night, in tho deathlike solitude of my chamber — garret. I should say—moved by a breath of that divjne afflatus which, whatever scorners may say, still pervades the earth, I flung mv inspiration into verse, ragged you will no doubt say, but a true soul-fruit: F ■ fl fl J “Four days from now wo will listen to it,” interrupted the man on the ta­ ble, rising to a sitting posture; “that is if your vitality holds out so long." “Have you tried moxie?" asked Ja■cob, with a serious face. “And asafictida?" spoke up the ex­ banker; “that’s the stuff for you. Gall. Not very toothsome, but a wonderful bracer for the nerves” “Bah!” cried the ]>oet. a look of in­ tense disgust sweeping his mobile feat­ ures. “Bow little you know how far yon are from understanding my needs •nd yearnings. ”' “Bow about Browning and How­ ells ?" queried one of the occupants of the lounge. “Bah, again! My ' vital forces have retreated to their last citadel." He paused and laid his hand upon his heart. “They will never again emerge to engage in conflict with an unappre­ ciative world. unless------" “Unless what?" asked Jacob, as the I must have beefsteak ow!" cried Jacob, with th. -Haven't I given — I mean—a dol.’ar every of getting you into wnu disposition have you made of the silver case-dollars I have loaned you from day to day ?" “A porter-house with mushrooms, 60 cents; coffee, 10 cents; glass of wine. 15 cents; cigar, ditto." “Whew!” cried the seven auditors in a breath. “To your sordid souls, 4121 mirerable little grains of dross seem a vast sum to pay for a meal in which may lutk the nucleus of a second ‘Paradise Ix»st’ or the still unwritten ‘Great American Novel.’ I am, happily, cast in a diffeient mold. My soul rebels at the thought of free lunch, inv stomach revolts at the sight of redhots, while what little gorge there is witliia me rises up at the bare men­ tion of Imlogna sausage.” “And have you subsisted upon one meal a day?" asked Jacob. “Except for a few trifles specially frepared for me by the woman where room, and which I sometimes eat with real relidi." “She has been trying to build you up, that you might pay the bill you owe her, 1 suppose?” “I trust poor human nature is not so debased. No. sir. She has provided me with n few inexpensive dainties be­ cause she repecte genius, admires true poetic fancy!” "Then she shall not remain unre­ warded. You have often expressed a desire to earn your bread—beefsteak, I mean, by writing." ‘ “I yearn to do it.” “At some little trouble I have se­ cured you work. Mr. Samuels wants an article of two thousand words on the drainage question, for which he will pay six dollars, while the Broad.d-re will give eight dollars for three columns on the dock saloons." "They are low and vulgar subjects, Jacob, and will lead me----- ” “To your room. At an expense oi half a day's time I have collected nil the necessary points. " You can write them up by to morrow evening and got your fourteen dollars tho next morn­ ing. They will keep you until then.” “They" proved t<» lie a pair of silver dollars, which Gall hastened to pocket, while he looked in a hesitating way st the memoranda wliich had accompanied them. . “Well?" queried Jacob. “The fact is that my vitality------ ” “Oli, bother your vitality! Go along and get to work, and when you’re through with that, 111 find you some more." “Time may restore my shattered vi­ tality, but at present------ I have a proposition to make you, Jacob.” “Well?* “You take the memoranda and write up the articles and 1’11 divide the four­ teen dollars with you.” There was a roar of laughter, during which the vitality-exhausted poet van­ ished from the Bohemian den. At) anecdote which shows to what lengths jealousy may lie carried is re­ lated by T. A. Trollope: We took, one morning, a little excursion to Tuscu­ lum, on which my wife rode a donkey belonging to a very competent guide. Thia man knew every point where it was desirable to draw rein in order to enjoy the lovely and varied views. The donkey, who, no doubt, knew all these halting places ns well an his master, onee turned aside from tho path, in a very buainewa-like fashion, and planted himself before a gate from which a special!v pleasing outlook was to be seen. Mr wife, thinking to please the man, said : “How well your donkey knows his business. He came of himself to this lovely view, just as if he enjoyed it.” But the effect of her words’ was very startling. The man In.came suddenly and funoualy angry. 'No, not he! I—I know how to make ladies and gentlemen see the views, aud &B that is to l^e seen. He!—he is an ass. and knows nothing. I—I am the *uide!" he cried, again and again. “The beast ii an bm, I tell you! Ho knows nothing!" In short, ho was furiously jcaloas of his donkey, and bitterly resented the compliments paid to the beaut’s saga­ city as so much taken from hia own praises. Thia is an extreme case, but jealousy in ka wildcat form is a mad, unrcai-ODing impulse which should bo strangled at its birth.

Tbe train of same material opens on each side over a velvet underskirt, a shade . or two darker than the silk. The upper sleeve ispleated in ono large and ono small puff from the shoulders, the test being embroidered to match the skirt. . The waist springs fjom a pointed corslet of embroidery thnt enframes tho corsage back and front. With thia exquisite costume—Betting, aa it were, the dotlet on tbe i—goes a dainty little Ihoodora capote with standing loops of mauve velvet on the front and a fillet of Parma violets clasping the hair be­ hind.

We have recently had a period of particularly cold weather, when ono might have supposed the female form divine would have been wrapped in the warmest and.cosiest of garments procurable. But not so.

Tbe fact Is that many of them dare not wear 'anything over tho ridiculous sleeves flow iu vogue for fear of spoiling them, while others can not Dear to sacri­ fice a smart gowu to comfort.

Then make another loop two- and a half inches from the first, and proceed as in the first csM», continuing in like man­ ner until you have a sufficient quan­ tity. The next thing is to trim the strips, grading them like those in the illustration. My own plan is to use one yard of blue and one yard of red flannel, and one yard of common muslin. Three yards will be more than ehough ma­ terial for tho tail of a kite six feet long. Tearing each into strips half an inch wide, I arrange them as already explained. The result is a verv handsome ki^otail.

Here he brings the hundreds upon hundreds of manuscripts which are constantly pouring in from all parts of the globe.

Many rear* ago, said a well-known •writer lately, I visited two families in the city of New York. Tbe find was ; Mr. Ledger, * professional man oi moderate means. He had a wife, twe daughtere and a son, who visited in a circle madenp of people who all posAOSHed large incomes. The Ledgers, however, from time to time gave Imlln and dinners as Dearly rivaling their wealthier ncighl>ors aa their income would permit. The girl* wore costly jewelry and laces and gowns made by fashionable dressmakers. “It is foolish, perhaps,” said their mother, apologetically, “but we mast keep step; wo must keep up with the procession." . , The second house to which I went was also tbat of a poor professional man. His family had gathered about them friends who had culture and re­ finement, but who sot * just estimate on money and fashion. They were not ashamed’ of being poor, and mode no pretense of wealth. The morning after I arrived I found the mother and daughters busy packing a Christinas box which was to go to u school for colored children in Alabama. Each member of the family brought something; the father h*d bought books, the girls had dressed dolls, even the children had mended their old toys and eagerly packed them. “Sarah has not yet brought hei share," said Mr*. Blanfc. At that mo­ ment the old colored cook came in with a bag of cookies which she packed in ■ box with many smiles and triumphant nod«. “Sarah would be grievously hurt ii she could not keep step too in the good work," said Mrs. B------ , when she had gone out. 5 These very different ideas'of “keep ing step" interested me. I followed the fortunes of the two families. As the.vears went on the father ir tho first <1he died, and tho girls, with expensive tastes ami sordid ambitions, were thrown upon tho world, almost penniless. They had learned no art, science or craft thoroughly. The* opened a lx>ariling-houi:e,.and are still hanging on the outskirts of a fashion­ able circle, Ixiasting of intimacy with people who care nothing for them and fancying vainly that they are “keeping up with the procession." The children in tho second family also have scattered. Some are married, others are earning their own living none are wealthy. But wherever you meet one of them, you find an earnest, cheerful, friendly man or woman, whe is intent on making the world bettci aud happier and who expect* you and everybody else to keep step in that work. Not a boy or girl or young man 01 woman who reads these lines is walk­ ing alone. Each is striving to keej step with some leader, to u|arch tc some goal. What is the goal? Who ir your leader?—Youth’s Companion. / Devil’s Lake. Devil’s Lake is the name of a IkxIj qf water in North Dakota which bat from time immemorial lx-eu held in aw< by the copper-colored aborigines whe live in the vicinity. Tho Indians be. lieve that the lake is inhabited by the evil spirits and the name Minnewakar (Devil’s lake) was given it hundreds ol years ago. Weird tales of the duingt of supernatural beings supposed tc people it are numerous and the truth ol many fictitious stories told about it have until late years never once beer doubted. Civilization is, however, get ting in its work in tho neighborhood and is rapidly dispelling the feeling oi awe in which the lake has been held by the Indians. There is a modern story of Devil’* Lake, however, which view in super­ stitious fancy with those of abnormal times. Not alone the Indians, but the soldiers at Fort Totten, which is situ­ ated on the northern border of the lake have a firm belief in the existence of a phantom steamboat which is said to ply the waters of Minnewakan. Some weird tales are told of how this airy creation goes puffing up and down the silent lake in the darkness of summer nights, its spectral fires gleaming on the black water and the beat of its screw keeping up a rhythmic motion that be­ comes suddenly silent on the approach of a mortal. The first appearance of the phantom Steamboat was early in the ’80’s when it was witnessed one night by a party oi soldiers who were crossing the lake. Many people have since claimed to have seen it go puffing up and down the lake in the darkness of mooniece nights, its fires making trails of light on the water, while the throbs of the ghostly engine were distinctly heard.

The insect cannot be suspected of having taken a hint from Pullman, but it seems as though some ingenious person might contrive to apply the spider'* plan to the lessening of human fatigue while making long journey*. A doctor desired to send a fine speci­ men of the spider trilie to a medical friend who was exceedingly curious in the study of such matters. As the readiest means of transit, he inclosed it in a common wooden box, and dis­ patched the tiny traveler by exprees. The box. however, was too roomy for the spider’s *ant«, and as he seem* to have disliked the jolting incident to traveling, he hid recourse to a very in­ genious remedy.

Banders, one of tbe Repub­ lics n Senator* from ths State of Montana, has been in Washington some weeks, and has already created for himself quite a reputation as a wide-awake Westerner aud a moat interesting* story-teller. His seat in the highest legiaUlive -body in the world, as well ** that of his oollemps, Tom Powers, has been contested ineb by inch by ex-Deiegste McGinnis and Hon. W. A. Clark, who sdso claim the right to represent the great State. AH four of the claimants are men of wealth, and every evening intimate frionds of the quartette gather about their headquarters, and en­ joy the bounteous hospitalities dispensed in the true Montana stylo. Twenty yeais ago Tom Powers had tho reputation of being one of the moat suecessful and energetic captains on tbe XiBsourl Biver, aud commanded one of the handsomest steamboats that trav< rsod that great stream. It is related of him tbat on one occasidn ho ox ecu ted a moat daring feat, saving the live* of manj- passengers and a largo cargo of government freight from the Indians. It was somewhere brok in 1838 that tbe Indians broke out all aloogthe river from old Fort P erre all the war up to Fort Benton. The murderous savages butch­ ered every white person they could lay hands on. They were particularly troublesome along the banks of tbe Mis- ; souri, and woe be onto any steamboat ; thu Kttempted to navigate the stream. With full knowledge of «b<it might be in store for him. Captain Tom loidod hh boat at Yankton with Government provisions'for Fort Benton, aud with a num­ ber of passenger*, to whom he. ha I ex­ plained the situation, coolly pulled up 1 the river. Everything went smoothly i enough until tho fifth day, when a perfect fuaillade of ballets poured into the boat from the willows and bush on the bank of tha r.ver. Tbo terror-stricken pilot imagined they were all aimed at him, and it is sate to say some of them wore, as evorr glass in the pilot bouse was shivered at tbo first fire. With a shriek tho eow- 1 srdly fellow fell flat on his faco | aud in another moment tbe boat 1 might havo swung about and grounded : on a sand-bar, but Captain Powers, realiz­ ing tbe dangers of the channel a: this point, had instinctively rushed for the pilot-houso nt tho first sign of danger, and just as the pilot dropped to tho floor he sprang to tho wheel, and with a steady bona kept tho boat in its regular course. Bullets whistled through the atr. splin­ ter* from the window sash flew all around him. The blood-curdling yells of tho redskins could be board only a hundred yards away, causing fearful agony to the terrified passengers below. The undaunt­ ed Captain, however, hung to the wheel with ono hand and waved hi3 hat at tbo maddened savages with tbe other. With­ out n scratch he ran tbe gantlet, and in due time arrived at his destination with cargo and passengers safe sni sound. Nor was tho Captain any tbe loser from damages by bullets either. Ho invited bis passengers into a game of poker the night of the attack and won enough to repair bis pilot-house. They had not yet recovered their nerve, so that, although with fall knowle Ige of the steamboat man’s penchant for bluffing, his bob-tail flushes almost invariably pot away with tbo pot. His winnings repaired the dam­ ages to his boat. . A most remarkable man for a Benstor is will-bo-wbcn-they-let-him-in Sandor*, the partner in trouble of Powers. His adventures, particularly while leader of tbe vigilantes in Montane, are of tbe most sensational dime-novel chiractar.

In another minute ths officer was tumbled unceremoniously out of the vehicle and the prisoner wa* being dragged to the bridge upon which they proposed to hang him. bsndew struggled to his feet, although still in the grasp of a couple of stalwart vigilante*, and veiled: 'Hold on. boy; you know me; I'm Ban­ ders,'of -Helena; I've been with ye many a time.

So they “yanked" him back into the bnck-bosrd, and with a "so-long. Colonel," rode awayr and Sanden took him. into Helena. Somo of the very men who put Sanders up to going after the thief were tho ones who gate in­ formation to tho vigilante*,, but none of them happened to be in tbo gang to dispute tbe bluff made by Sandors, and thoir astonishment was intense when he rode in about noon with this prisoner. Gen. Bpinola, representing oue of th* mo<t populotte of the Npw York City <_ ongresfionsl districts, is a hard man to tackie in a debate. Habitues of tho House galleries take keen delight in Ihteuing to his shaq>, sarcastic and witty, fivs-minute speeches. Congressman Kerr, of Iowa, run against him the other day >n tho debate over the “canteen system in the army," and he i« now trying to dis­ cover which tha General most resembles, a buzz-saw or a cyclone—aud Kerr i* no infant in an off-haud debate himself. While Kerr has a faculty of propounding troublesome questions. Bpinola has a faculty of answering them in the most caustic and aggravating way. There is * growing suspicion that tho iar.oHt number of members of the pres­ ent Congress look upon tho civil-servico law in anything but a favorable light. Be this as it may, a test of its popularity among tho members will be made when the estimates for additional forces to carry the law into effect come up for con­ sideration. Tho commission wants an extra appropriation of $37,000. and th* enemies of civil-scrvice reform intend to make a fight on it. There will unques­ tionably be u fight also on the regular appropriation. A belief prevails in legislative circle* that tbe iecommendation of Secretary Proctor in favor of transferring the pen­ sion office from tho Interior to tho War Department should prevail. Tbe propo­ sition has been discusaed in *omewnat different form several timen during the past few years. It is well known that tho proofs relating to tbe records of soldiers and pension claimants are furnished by the Wnr Department. It i< pro­ posed by combining the Pension Bureau and War Department to curtail tbe expense of adouule force, and draw upon the la ge force of army officers now iu tho employ of the War'Department, and snbjtct to the eall ot the Secretary War, for ai 1 in carr. log on the pension buxines*. The young lie tenants who heretofore have bad nothing to do but cultivate their social qualities of course will object to being put to work. If thia project is carried ont the pension force will be doubled at no extra cost to tbe government and operate to tbe advantage of tbo younger branch of tho army, which at present occupies much the »»wo poe.t on to tbe government as a piece of statuary in our lady’s parlor. The discussion over tho bill for the ad­ mission of Wyoming, which passed tho House last week, revealed an astonish­ ingly large number of Congressmen who have a leaning toward woman suffrage. An amendment to the bill striking out tbe suffrage clause in the ConsiitJtion adopted by Wyoming last summer was defeated by a handsome majority, and number forty-thne wfll come into tho Union with a provision in her organio act giving equal rights to male and feTbe resolution ot Senator Voorhees, of Indiana, relating to the financial depres­ sion among the farmers, is destined to become the bugbear of tho Senate before the close of the session. The Senator has taken up the cause of the granger, as wall as a number of other Senators, and they propose to follow up tbe question to tbe bitter end. Indeed, the farming ele­ ment is receiving much attention at the hands of Congress this year, but whether beneficial legislation is to take plaae re­ mains to be seen. All tactions unite in the opinion that something must bo done, but the split occurs on the ways and means. And now a howl may be expected from the "Dudes’ Union," if there is such an orgsnizatioD. The passage of tbe Mc­ Kinley tariff bill will result in raising the price of cigarette* and imported cigar*.

Race lines, police lines, and» car lines: »cre all obliterated, aud joy and laughter rei nod supreme. At 2 o'clock tho famous Marine Band ■ took ita position in the center of the park, ana for two hour* tbe youngsters nearly went wild dancing and prancing about to anch spirited it not classical mn«ic as "McGinty," "Razzle-dazzle." "Where Did You Get That Hut?" "Suwa­ nee River,“ and "Liajen to My Tale of Woe." It was at this period that tho Rreaident and his family appeared upon the rortico aud smiled upon the attend­ ant thousands. Baby McKee and all the other White House babies were bold up for the admiring gaze, and a bowl of welcome—for it truly waa a howl—went up from ton thousand throats. Outside of tbe grounds, on overy aide, fakirs and peddlors of every description plied a most encouraging Easter Monday 1 rude in egg*, p os. cakes, bananas, bal­ loons, lemouado. p ckles. peais. and pea­ nuts. The hokey-pokey mu was out in all his glory. It is ono of tbe sights of a life-time, to see this grand display of youth ond beauty out ou a frolic, but what a sight when all hid gone. Tbe magnificent loans were literally strewn with egg-shells, paper b»gs. withered bouquets, nnd half-eaten sandwiches. Thia year wi'l witness oue of tbe most important elections, from a strictly Sena­ torial atandpo nt, that have taken place in a great many years, and it muy not bo surprising if some of the most noted fig­ ures ot tho present Sena 0 would disap­ pear from public life forever. Prob .bty the most prominent man who goes back for re-e action is Senator Ingalls, of Kansas. It is claimed, and with conriderablo em­ phasis. tuat since the recent action of tbo r*nnen* ? llmnce of hi* State declaring war upon him, tbo opposition to hi« re­ turn bus so crystallized that it is doubtful whether he can overcome hls entmiu*. The most important personage on the other side o: the chamber i< Sona or Vest, who will ask tho people of Mis­ souri for another six years' lea-e of Sen­ atorial life next falL Vest will have a eiwo.ful antagonist in the person of on. Jeff Chandler. It Is asserted that the 1-1ter has tbe warm regard of the Repub­ licans of his Stale, and that rather th-n fee tbe present Senfttorretu.-nedtbey will join with tnougb Chandler Democrats to defeat him and ek-ct Chandler. Wade Hampton, of South Carolina, has a bard row to hoe this fall. Tbo Farmers' Alli­ ance and Labor Unions scant his seat b id; but Hampton's fences »re in much better condition than Vest's. Brown, ot Georgia, and Vance, of North Carolina, will have strong opposition in their own party, aad it may lx> they will go under. New York wilk. in all probability, elect a succewor to • William M. Evarte othpr than himself. Indeed, it is no secret that tho veteran statesman has no desire to succeed himself. Senator Morrill, of Vermont, is eighty y nr* old and has been in Congress for thirty-six years—twelve ye-r* a member of tbo House and twenty-four in tho Senate. It .rests almost entirely with himself ' whether he comes back again next year, as tho people ot bis State express no de­ sire to throw him asido after so long aud honorable a career as has been his. But it is not at all unlikely that the venerable gentleman will step aside for a younger man and retire to his home to rest in pe .co and qmet daring the few year* that remain to him and hisostimab e wife who has remaned by his aide during hi* entire official life. Leland Stanford, tbo many time* millionnra of California, and ’1 oiler, of Colorado, would both like to come b- ck, and if money is 'any qualifieation, as is sometimes charged,tnelr chances are both good. The impression prevails through­ out Waahington circles that Farwell, of Illinois, bee a hard fight to face in his State this fail. Mutterings of discon­ tent in the ranks of his own party hove reached the Capitol and are being made the most of by tbe opposition, and it is claimed that the administration is rather lukewarm in his behalf. The Senator is confident, however, that he will pull through all right. Spooner, of Wiscon­ sin, has opposition in his State, but it iieem to be without strength or organiza­ tion, and he may be considered pretiy safe. Platt, pf Connecticut; Call, of Florida; Voorhees, of Indn na; Black­ bore. of Kentucky; Eustis, of Louisiana; Wilaon, of Maryland; Jones, of Nevada: Blair, of New Hampshire: Mitchell, of Oregon; and Cameron, of Pennsylvania, will all go back to their respective con­ stituents and are almo«t certain of’re­ election. Besides those, the Senators from the new States who drew short terms will have to* endure another cam­ paign. These are Pierce, of North Dakota; Allen, of Washington; and Moody, of South Dakota. Taken all in all, with the gigantic effort the Democrats will m >ke to again aecure control of tho lower branch of Congress, this year will be a mo it exciting one, politically speak­ ing. —At tbe Port Huron Catholic Church the o'hsr evening, when the congregation was made up largely of women aud chil­ dren, the trimmings around tbe altar caught fire.

Senator Vance, of North Carolina, is the most amuring tilker in the United States Senate. In bis argument on the Montana election case he kept the galler­ ies in a ripple of laughter from beginning to end, and the usually grave countenance* of tho dignified Senators partook of a broad griu as ho 1 elated some amus­ ing story and applied it to the case at hand. He knew, said Vance in conclusion, that tbe flat had gone forth. He knew that the Republican claimants wore lo bo seated. But in the wi«e regu­ lation of the moral world there waa com­ pensation lor all things. Republican Senators would be sicker over the thing before it was over than ho was now. He had heard of an old fellow who went out to Ohio to speculate in hog*. He bought a big drove of them nnd snipped them to New York. When ho got to New York he found that bog* were cheaper there than thov were in Ohio. So be shipped them back and sold them. He met 3 friend next day, who said.: "Jim. you made a bad speculation." "Yes, said he, "I lost a good deal of money, but I had the company of the hogs both ways." So ho thanked God that in all future denunciations of the South for tho suppre*s:on of colored voters. Southern Sen­ ators would have tbe company of the hogs.

Memory of the Great Chicago Fire. HE early settlers of Chicago, and espe­ cially those familiar with the south di­ vision of the city before the fire, wiU doubtless remember an old red brick to stand on Congresa street, not far from the lake. It matters little who owned the property; it ia sufficient to way that Mrs. Sapphire Dodge, tho ■widow of a down-Eaat sea ctip-tain, occupied it, and there con­ -ducted a home-like but aristocratic boarding-house. Tho array ot lioard•ers around Mrs. Sapphira Dodge’s tables differed little from that in scores of other resorts of a similar •kind. The gossip was as. prolific among the ladies; tho rivalry in dress and the petty jealohsies flourished there ■as they always have and always will ■in boarding-houses of wealth and case. .But on the fatal night of October 9. 1871, the house was destroyed, and Mre. Sapphire Dodge never again •opened her establishment. Many of her boarders never showed up again •after that night, and quite a number of board bills are still unpaid. A romance grew from the burning of Mra. Dodge's boardings house, and a -confirmed bachelor becatae a benedict. Prominent among the boarders was •Colonel T. G. Frost, a middle-aged at­ torney, who did little but collect rent Ironi half a score of buildings at the beginning of each month. And then there was Mrs. Amos T. Matthews, a •widow with an income and two charm­ ring daughters. May, the elder, was tall and willowy, while her sister, Anna, ■ was plamp and round of figure. It ’had long been tho talk of the boarders in general that if the Colonel had a very little encouragement he would have placed his future happi-ness at the ' disposal of Mim «*j. But the encouragement did I •not come, and though the Colonel •was bold in war he was bashful in matters of Iom. and had it not been for the awful fire he had in all probability lived and died a bachelor. The boarders were all excited on the •night of the fire. Long before they went to bed that night they watched •the lurid skv and in hushsfi whispers wondered what was burning. No one -over dreamed that they need fear. A few of tho young, unmarried men left for the scene of the fire late in the evening, but they did not return. Whatever became of them Mra. Dodge never knew. Their board bills are among the unpaid. Every-one who knows anything of lhe fire of October, 1871, knows how ■fke flames roared and how the burning ■brands rained over the roofs far in ad•vaaca of the main body of the “fiery tsarricanc.’’ As it was in scores and hundreds of other cases, so it was with Mra.Sapphira Dodge's household. They went to bed that night little feeling j the dangor they were ia, and slept yoefnliy. Long before the flood of In reached the old red brick. Dutehgabled boarding house on Congress street, one of the treacherous brands act fire to the roof. It went like typical tinder. The boarders had bare­ ly time to escape with their lives. Tbrn tbe street* were crowded with tho&xaads of homeles* and excited ___ little one*. from their familial, bwu luirned to death. He oooupied a room on tbe thin! floor front. The first he' knew of the fire wa» a strong smell uf smoke iu hU rixnu. Jumping out of bed, he drew «su a pair of trousers and ran out into the hall. He quickly realized that prompt acthru wa* necessary, and he atoxice began to arouse the house. The pandemonium which raged in tho street did not tend to pacify the boarders. Half-dadihey tore through t‘he halls to the street. and were soon lost in the vast tumult tKat swept on to the lake. By some fortunate chance Colonel Frost ran back to his room for more clothing after rousing the sleeping boarders. As he came luck to the ball he was amazed to find that Mrs. Matthews and her daughters had not yet escaped. The smoke and heat were ponring up the .stairway, makjng an exit by that route next to impossible. There was a fire escape from the rear; hall window, and he urged the ladies to waste no ti-ne in using it. The daugh­ ters were to overcome with smoke and fright that he had to almost carry them down the ladder. He made a third trip for the mother to find her insane with hysteria. She was afraid of the ladder. In the most piteous terms she begged him to try the stairs. ComKlying with-her wish came near provig fatal to loth. There was a pitcher of water in his room. This he dashed over a blanket and throwing it over their heads they started down the stairs .through tho blindifig smoke. . Before they reached the second flight the mother fainted. Hastily rolling the blanket about.her the Colonel made a fierce rush for* the street. He got out, but was tewibly burned. His face and breast were fairly cooked. A short­ time in tbe open air and the mother revived. In the excitement the Col­ onel heeded uot his burns. Through his tireless energy they reached a place of safety. Tjicn came a time of terri­ ble suffering from heat, cold, and ex­ posure. Il was late the follow­ ing afternoon when they reached the home of a friend who had es­ caped the fire. The Colonel was in a frightful condition. His eyes were almost swollen shut and he had a high fever. As soon as they reached shelter he sank into unconsciousness. For days he raved in delirium. When tho fever left hi■> face and breast w ere still raw. The skin refused to grow over the burneel flesh. In vain the doctor applied healing lotions. One day hc chanced to remark in the presence of the elder^aughter that he wished some one would invent a good' substitute for the natural skin, bhe asked what ho meant. He explained that if hc had what he wanted in that line he could soon cure the Colonel, aud save him from disfigurement as well. In other words they wanted some human skin to engraft a new growth on the Colo­ nel’s face and breast. Miss Matthews at once offered her services. Without flinching she permitted the surgeon to peel off portions of skin from her shoul­ ders and plant it on the Colonel’s face and breast. It was all done without Colonel Frost’s drnow ledge, but it worked like a charm. It was ftillvayear before the Colonel got his buMness affairs straightened out, but he did not lose sight of Mrs. Matthews and her two daughters. He was not discouraged in his attentions, and on the second anniversay of the Are Miss May and he were married. He is a handsome man of fifty years now, and whenever any one passes a compliment upon his looks, he invari­ ably says it is due to the fact that he stole his complexion from his wife. th" date nnd place of the origin*! entry.

S Washington dispatch: An extended and forcible argument In favor of a government appropriation for Ute build­ ing of tbe Hennepin canal was made be­ fore the river and harbor committee of of the House by Jerry H. Murphy, the long-time advocate of the project. Nearly all of the Illinois congrewntn and many other western congressmen were present. Mr. Murph ▼ reviewed the steps here­ tofore taken tn the efforts to establish this great project, and set forth the overwhelming Indorsement of " the enterprise by statesmen, legislative bodies, conventions, and others since 1845. when John C. Calhoun, ’•that strict constructionist," presided over a conven­ tion at Memphis which adopted a resolution declaring that the prolect of connecting th» Mississippi river with the-lakes of tho north by a canal, and thus with the Atlantic ocean, was a measure worthy of the consideration of Congress. . He submitted many figures to show that the United States had done less to Improve her waterways lu the Interest ot commerce than England. France, Russia, Germany, Holland. Sweden, or Austria. The Importance of the Henne­ pin canal for defensive purposes In llinoof war was also elaborately set forth. Speaking of whet the canal would do for agriculture and commerce, Mr. Murphy said: “I make the statement, and challenge Investigation, that If the government, through Its representatives, will do Its duty and construct this canal there will be a saving of nt least 4 cents pef bushel over present railroad rates now charged from the Mississippi river to the lakes. And the saving of 4 cents per bushd on tho surplus gralp of Illinois, Iowa. Kansas, Nebraska. Minnesota, and Wisconsin will amount annually to 330,884.070, enough to build this canal three times, and not Including In this estimate other products of tho Western toilers that would amount to millions more." It Is announced that Mr. Clarkson, first assistant Postmaster General, will rellreon Juno 1. Mr. Clarkson's resigna­ tion, to lake effect on that date, has been prepared and will bo handed iu shortly. Mr. Clarkson is tired of tho place and its drudgery. Tho pay Is 34,000 a year, and this Is not commensurate with tho duties. .Besides, as he says, ho only .took the place temporarily, aud he has ’boon ready to leave It for a number of months. He has boon Importuned to hang on until now, when hc can turn over tne office to other hands. HE IS VXPOPVUB. Alarm Throughout Hls Empire. Edmund Yates’ special London cable to the New York Tribune says: ‘’Tho federal Princes of tho German Empire have no sort of belief in the brilliant capacity of Emperor William. They are disgusted and terrified at his recent vagaries. Tho Duke of Saxe-CoburgGotha and a dozen German royalties took advantage of hit relationship to remon­ strate In strong terms with the Emperor, and he was justified In so doing as the trusted friend and often confidential ad­ viser of hls majesty's father and grand­ father. But his protests were of no avail. The Duke was so Indignant that he refused to stay In Berlin for the chapter of tho Black Eagle, but went off to Coburg In high dudgeon. The Duke’s sentiments are most fully shared by the King of Saxony, the Prince regent ot Bavaria, and above all the Grand Duke ot Baden. “One certain result of the retirement of Prince Bismarck will bp, I hear, tho early resignation of Count Kalnoky. It Is expected in diplomatic circles tn Vienna that hd will bo succeeded by Count von Wolkenstein, the Austrian ambassador to, Russia, who has jilst arrived in Vienna from St. Petersburg on leave of absence.’’ ABE STAYING AT HOME London Cable: The statistics ’sub­ mitted by the authorities In charge of British emigration show that since Jan. I emigration to America has decreased 8,000 below that for the corresponding period of 1889. This falling off. It la represented. Is due to the fact that wages have In­ creased at homo until they arc quite as high, and iu some cases higher, than the rates paid for similar employment in America, while tho opportunities for obtaining work hero are equally good: • These evidences of Improvement are attested by the fact that tbe number of Immigrants arriving in England from foreign countries has increased since Jan. 1 by more than eight thousand in comparison with tho months of January, February and March. 1889.

Rnt to enforce the provisions against trades made for future dt-Uvery of the goeds would be to force out ot business small dealers aud concentrate the trade in the hands of large capitalists who could afford and were able to purchase crojH and hold them for a rise. These small dealers act largely as agents for the farmer and buyer both. To stop sales for future delivery. Mr. Nelson said, would be to interrupt and disarrange the entire financial system of the country. The bankers of the country move its crops and depend noon the transactions of small dealers in country,towns for the basis of their transactions. Ho proceeded to explain In detail the operation by which tho grain reached the market from the pro­ ducer. tn which operation the farmer, tho local agent the broker In the money center, and tho banker were all engaged. Mr. Nelson repeated that the result of the bill would be t* crush out the small dealers and place tho farmer at tho mercy of the large capitalists, who can bur cash grain, but they will buy at such a price; that they can hold it until Gabriel blows hls horn without sustain­ ing loss. In. answer to a question by Mr. Allen of Michigan. Mr. Nelson said that local banks could not supplv and coulcTnot got sufficient money tn move t ho crops of the country, nor could the local dealer or agent. It must be sup­ plied from the money centers. Referring to the taxing section. Mr. Nelson asked why. If the committee be­ lieved the business to bo honest, a license was required. Certainly not for the revenue to be derived. If tbe busi­ ness Is to be made a penal .ffonso why not say so In the first Instance and de­ clare it unlawful in so many words? Information has teen received hereby the delegates to the internallunal con­ ference that the’union of the Central American republics is now comp etc, with the exception of Nicaragua, which Is expected" to ratify the artices of union at tbe next me-tlng of the Congress. This union Is only provisional, having In view, within the next ten years, the adoption of a federal constitution similar to that of the United States, should such be the popular will. In the meantime the confederation will act as practically one government in Its nubile affairs, through a chief executive, a cabinet of five members, and a diet composed of three representatives from each of the five republics. Tho latter, lik<* our own States, will retain their independent statutes as to the supervision nnd regulation of their own domestic affair*. Th<* name of the union Is to be tho Republic ot Centra) America, and Its object Is the । romotlon of better com­ mercial and Industrial relations, tho adoption of an organized system of nitlonal defense, measures for the settle­ ment of difficulties between the States by arbitration, and. In short, the-gradual •political unification of the five republics under one sovereign flag. The new republic is to be inaugurated at the capital of Honduras on the 13th of September next, tho representative* of the several States haring previously arranged for tho selection of tho first President. The selection of a cabinet wfil soon follow, and the wheels of tho new'governmcnt be' set In motion with the good wishes of all lovers of civil lib­ erty aud republican Institution* Something far the Hennepin canal pro­ ject has Iwen done at last. The House committee on river and harbors. before whom is pending the Murphy plan, have bad a meeting and decided lo re­ port In favor of an Immediate appropria­ tion of 8500,000 with which to begin tho construction of the canal within the time of the government survey and pro­ vision also for future appropriations. This action of the committee has been kept from tho public with unusual se­ crecy, and several members of the com­ mittee who were seen last night decline to talk about It all. None of them would deny tbe truth of the foregoing state­ ments. but said they were obliged to re­ frain from talking until Monday. Jerry H. Murphy, the long time pro­ moter of the canal, said while he could not deny that the committee had de­ termined upon an appropriation he was strictly bound by confidence to discioao nothing for a day or two. In his argu­ ment before the committee last Monday Mr. Murphy asked for an Immediate ap­ propriation of 81,000,000. A unanimous report from the commit­ tee on rivers and harbors will do much toward the passing of the bill in tho House. It Is to bo observed that the Illinois man. Thomas J.

The last one Amy named "Squeaker,” because he would squeak and cry so if he were ica>ed. Squeaker liked a soft, warm bed, and he would curl up in grandma’s worsted basket in spite of her cuffs, dislodging the bright balls all over the floor, the sight of which would drive sleep out of hi* little black eyes for a time, and he would jump down and<curry tbem over the carpel till they were all in u tangle.

The Fidelity of a Mongrel Cur to Ito Dead Young Master. Wordsworth and Walter Scott have honored in verse the faithful dog who guarded her master’s corpse for three months after the unfortunate tourist had fallen down a precipice and lost lua life on Helvellvn. A story hardly less affecting is related by Miss Cobbe “The Friend of Mau." “A poor, little, ragged Irish urchin, the owner of a mongrel cur, and the rider of a donkey, one day followed along tbe highway a car containing a party of tourists. They naturally bade him keep his distance and not raise the dust. “The boy continued to canter after the car ns fast as hi* donkey would carrv him. his dog barking at bin heels. Sud­ denly the donkey stumbled and fell, and pitched the boy over his bead into the road. The l»y gave a cry, but the tourists only laughed and proceeded on their way, never dreaming of stopping to see the result of the fall. “No one else passed along for many hours, and the first who did so found tbe boy lying dead by tho road->ide and the 'dog and donkey standing watching beside him. The little corpse was carried to the father’s cabin and buried speedily. “A week afterward *ome onO though* of the dog and wonderwl what bad be come of it.

A g rl. the daughter of one of the richest Naw York mothrra, ht<s become Bug ged, and up to this time she ha* never worn anyjewelry more than a few neat little pins* for the corsage, a tur­ quoise and a pearl ring, and tiny ear studs of diamonds. In speaking of pett ng married this young woman appeared most delighted in the prospect of securing a geurrons portion of her mother's jewels. Id order to show me how well entitled she was to feel joyous in this regard the led me to the greet oaken Lox in which tbe jewelry was kept It was in the mother's bedroom. and had only been sent from the safe deposit t->at morning to permit the lady to select her ornaments for a dinner party that she was to attend in tbo eyening. As it waa opened all the gems of Aladdin seemed outspread to the gaze, and yet only one tray was then seen, under which were four others, each crowded with countless jew­ els, emitting their vari-colorod rays. The daughter who was to some day own all this costly effulgence selected bracelets, tiaras, necklaces, rings, aigrettes and plus from the mass, and hastily bedecked herself in them, striding proudly about the chamber to show how gorgeous she should be wnen they were hers to wear. Tbe young man who marries this girl and her diamonds happens to be surprisingly Impecun ous, but if the bride brought nothing to him but her beauty and her mother's jewel casket he could well be thought one of tho most fortunate fellows under tbe sun.

Tbe members of'both families were delighted. The chap’s mother was- dazzled bv the beauty, the breeding and tbe elegance of her prospective daughter-in-law. Strange to say, ho wever, on the dav after tbe young K rl bad begun her visit the mother nailed her son to her and spoke gravely to him about his promised bride. “Harry, said she, "Aliee invited me into her rooni to-day, and oh, my boy, rhe doesn't drees like a lady, at all! I'm afraid, Harry, I really am. ” Harry smothered hit indignation and begged'bis mother to explain herself. "Well, you aee,"ssid the latter, "instead of nice white linen, all her underwear is block silk. Every item is of that mate­ rial, nnd when I spoke of it she showed me trunks full of clothes in every tint of silk imaginable, and no linen ut all. This was b^iL enough, Harry, but her garters had jeweled clasps o'n them. Ob. my •on, you never knew of a girl of real re­ finement to get herself up in that style! I feel certain that something we do not know about Alice's disposition will come out sooner or 1st «r." In a groat rage at hie mother's imputa­ tion, Harry left the house. When he re­ turned he did not recur to the subject, and his mother refrained from broaching it again, though her whole manner indicated her fears concerning bar son's fiancee. A week later, however, the girl eloped with an adventurer. ‘I should always," save Harry's mother, "doubt a young lady who could not take pride In fine linen, and I am positive that no modest girl ever wore a jeweled garter. Such a thing could not be tbe gift of her father or mother, and she certainly would not buy it herself," And I fancy it is a fact that really exJuisite girls avoid elaborate fads in unrrwenr, and that elegance, not showi­ ness, is commendable in a fashionable dresser.—New York letter to Chicago Ledger. ______________________ The Longevity of Birds.

Out of the rotas of the awful calam­ I ity of last year has arisen the new city I of Johnstown, whose new municipal officers have just assumed their funclions, and which comprehends within its limits seven of the old boroughs that lined the bunks of the Couemaugh river. Ever since the great flood, the pro­ gressive citizens of these several bod­ ies have felt-that the time *as come to “get together.” The heavy burdens left by the destruction of so much property could, it was felt, be better borne by one strong, young city than by a number of separate boroughs. The consolidation is now effected, and the new city lieging life, burdened, to be sure, with heavy responsibilities, but confident in its resources and lu the character of its citizens. The new mayor of the city, Mr. W. Horace Rose. was one of the commit­ tee of distribution of the relief fund, and In that capacity rendered valuable service to hls fellow citizens. Hls In­ augural address Is a remarkable effort, and augurs well for the efficiency of the'new city government. He shirks none of the responsibilities of hls. office, minimizes none of the burdens that the new city must bear; but he Is confident that with patience aud hard work all difficulties will be surmount­ ed, and that Johnstown, with a new survey, new bridges, better river chan­ nels, new fire limits, a new fire de­ partment. new streets, new sidewalks, a new board of health, a new license system and a proper assessment and collection of taxes, will lie able to sur­ mount all difficulties and become one of tbe safest and best governed cities in the commonwealth of Pennsyl­ vania. UNDESIRED NOTORIETY. For a man who does not seek notor­ iety—indeed he studiously avoids It— Jay Gould secures more of it than al­ most any man in America. George Francis Train, who Inconstantly study­ ing up some new and ingenious way for making the newspapers talk about him, turns green with envy every time he picksup a paper, for Jay Gould staresont-’at him from the cold type, whatever page he may turn to. Gould —always Gould—and Gould doesn't want it; in fact he detests it. He can't step outside hls door without some rvporteWmaking note of IL He can’t steal gently—and he always steals gently—down Wall street without the papers getting out extras about it, and the fact being telegraphed all over the country.

The schooner was caught In a storm and wrecked. She was picked up by some Quebec sailors and the wreckage put Into the Court ot Admiraltv, where it was ordered sold. Mr. Casey was the auctioneer.

Mr. Casey sold the goods by the order of the court, realizing something like 8300. Tho money remained tn tho hands of the court, and no stops wore taken to End J.

The crowd ■uvr^i off the ferry-boat, and hurried by Dran*. One lady evidently reoognixed him, for he heard her say to her Moon: “Poor follow, his voice must have been wonderful before he ruined it'by drink." , Riddled by this double-barreled in­ sult, Drane hung hi* hood and made off upotrect. which run* parallel with tho Pennsylvania track* for a few blocks. At tho first crossing ho turned to tho right aud passed over tho confusion of rails at the imminent risk of his life. T&ere is no more dangerous place on tho face of the earth, but Drano was in a condition of mind where collision with a Shifting engine would have been a re­ lief to hi* feelings. A freight tram was being 'made up on a side track, and Drane crawled along in tho Khadow of it till he camo to a car which looked as if it might bo entered. He was on tho point of trying it, when a figure appeared from the shadows. Drano wu about to run, but perceiving that tho other man had a similar inten­ tion, bo understood the case at once. “Hold on,” said he, "1 won’t hurt you- I’m looking for a free ride on this train, and so are you. Isn't chat so?” “You’ve called it, boss,” said the fel’ low. "that’s my game.” "WelL I’m in with you.” returned Drane. “You know more about this business than I do. What shall wo do?” Tho tramp answered by deed*, not word*. . He pried open the door of tha car and crawled in. Drane followed. The car appeared to be freighted with pig-iron or some other heavy substance of which very littio made a load, for there was plenty of room. Drane and hi* companion found tho most comfort­ able place they could in the darkness. To the. former's great relief the train •oon started and ran with no stop for nearly an hour. Then there came a halt. Tresontly Drano heard a man stop just outside the door by which they had en­ tered. "Jimmy,” said a voice, "somebody’s been getting into this car.” "Thunder and turf." whispered tho tramp, "we’re in for it now. They’ll •end us up. There’s just one chance for us. You stand on one side of the door and Til stand on tho other. When they climb in we’ll make a break." That was exactly what they did; and as Drane happened to jump out directly upon the head of the brakeman on guard, they escaped. In the lea of a’ fence, a few minutes later, Drano was joined by his late ac­ quaintance, whom he had outrun with ease. Two or three others struggled up immediately after. "They've cleaned all the boys off tho train," the tramp explained. "We’re hung up here for sure.” ’ There was a hasty consultation, and from it Drano learned that they wore near an old barn which was well- MB. DI’.AXESIXGH FOB HU PASSAGE.

It was decided that the best thing to do wav to put up in this place for the night Drane fell into the lino, and after a march across some fields, ho entered, the tramp's hotel with thp mot­ ley Grew. ' Counting those already in it, who were aroused by the entrance of his party, there were nearly a dozen in all. Through a great hole high up in tho wall the moonlight streamed, and in the circle thus marked out the strange company sat down and prepared to ex­ change some friendly goasip before go­ ing to sleep. **■ “1 take it you're new to tho profes­ sion?” said the man whose acquaint­ ance Drano had made Ln tho freight yard. "What's your name?” Drane told him. "Do you spell it just like any other drain?" called out one of the mon. There was Wme g«x.d-naturod laugh­ ter at this, and then one of them asked Drane where he come from.

"What's tho matter with sending him to Pittsburgh when tin? profession assembles?" "Ho’d represent all the liars Ln it,” responded another, “in a way that would more than do ’em justice." "I can't promise to go," said Drano, "but the first man of you who finds me in Kansas City and learns the truth of what I have told you shall have a hun­ dred dollars aud a chance togo to work." •‘I’ll soil my chance in that hundred for a pipeful of plug.” said the man who had put Drane in nomination for the convention. "As for tho chance togo to work, I don’t want IL I’ll give it Altogether, Drane did not find this assemblage of tho unfortunate so inter­ esting as he had thought it might bo. He withdrew from tho circle soon and climbed high up on the hay till the raft­ ers wore just over his head. Thon ho lay down to sleep, and dreams carried him toother and far different scemm. A^flrst there were pictures of hofflo, and then the familiar faces'faded away and In their place camo one which had imprinted itself, on. his heart more clearly than ho knew<r-tho face of tho woman whom ►ho bod befriended and who in turn had remembered him. Through strange and difficult path* he was pursuing her. There was danger around them both. Suddenly ho over­ took her and triod to speak to her. but his voice would not come. He was chok­ ing. She seemed to read the agony in htseyos, for her face grew pitiful. Ho was dying at her feet. The hot sun cast a terrible ml glare upon him. It was descending from the heavens to burn him to a cinder. With a struggle ho threw the hideous vision from him and awoke. The red glare was still in his eyes, tho choking in his throat. The barn was on fire. Already tho hay below him was blazing, cutting off bls escape. The smoko was like a visible demon clutching him. Ho groped to the wall and put his Ups to a littio space between tho iwards, cocking for air. but tho hot vapor from within rushed out, and ho could not breathe. Tho thought of death in that strange plaoo crowded upon him—a fate of which those who lovod him would never hear—bis ashes scattered to tho winds. Frantically ho struck the board before him with his clenched hand. It yield­ ed. IIopo sprang up in bis heart. Ho rained blows upon tho rotten wood, till he beat it from its fastenings, and then with a last effort he forced his body through tho opening and swung him«x*lf to the ground. It is a mistake to judge wholly by ap­ pearances, for even Jersey mud was not created in vain. To tho gentle, yield­ ing nature of that substance Drane owed his preservation from serious in­ jury when he camo tumbling down tho ■ide of tho barn. As it was, the shock was violent He dragged himself with some difficulty to tho loe of a rock fence and made a hasty examination, which convinced hkn that no bones were broken. There was a soreness in .his throat and lungs which made every breath he drew Kocm full of threo-corjnorod files, but on the whole ho was in /air condition and ablo to walk, which was fortunate, as no other means of get­ ting away wore at hand. Before him was the blazing barn, now one mass of fire. He reflected with a shudder that perhaps Rome poor wretch had perished there, and he be­ gan to reproach himself for having mode no effort to rescue those who bad been his companions in misfortune. Then tho recollection of the way tho flames had leaped up over the hay as­ sured him that he need nottharge him­ self with cowardice. lie recalled tho fact that ho hod climbed up on the loft and that tho others hod remained be­ low, where doubtless thoy hud been awakened while the fire smoldered, fill­ ing tho barn with that smoke which had nearly been tho death of him.

"Every one of ’em found in tho county to-day ought to be put in jail.” Drano did not wait to discus* tbe question. Ho took a hasty and uncere­ monious leave. For half an hour he plodded through plowed fields, and climbed fences, till at length he camo to a factory of somo sort from which sever­ al littio branch railroad tracks ran to the main line near by. .Freight cars were being loaded there;' and Drano, watching his chance, got aboard of one unobserved. On the top of a big box he stretched hi* weary limb* and fell asleep. The train was In modon when he awoke, it ran on for nfearly an hour, ho thought, .without, stopping. Then camo a lot of bumping and switching about, followed by a prolonged pause- Listen­ ing, he heard a strange sound like the •plash of wave*.

PANTHER JOE. An Extraordinary Arizona Indian. kHORTLY after tho discovery of gold at Antelope 1 Peak'and along the Hassayampa 'River, in 1*863, a Yaqui Indian ar- /k J ■J —’''■Lx/ ^^* engaged in mining. Ho bore the name of Hijinio Carabal. Iu gfiueral appoarance the yfeyk K ; > »qui did not dif­ ' for "from others of bis race, save ’ rf that tho right ear was missing, and on that side of his neck he carried three scars resembling 6uch as might have been left from knife wounds. Like all his people ho waa passionately fond of intoxicating liquor, bt.t as he was harmless and inoffensive >*hen under its inQuencc, and imposed upon his fellow-miners no greater inflic­ tion than was to be created by the ■weird music of his native tribe as pro­ duced on an antiquated and discordant harmonica or mouth-organ—which he always carried with him—the Indian waa regarded as a compadre and per­ mitted to pursue his natural inclina­ tions. Ho secured a good claim and took out a large quantity of dust, noar- pxxtheh joe, the Yagtri. ly all of which was spent over the bars, to his evident satisfaction and increase of popularity with the miners. Mexicans'who came to the diggings from Sonora subsequent to the arrival of Hijinio told stories regarding him. They asserted that he hod formed a -close corporation with the devil, and -was in the habit of roaming over the unountaius and through the forests with wild and savage beasts, with ■which he wm on the most friendly terms. His right ear, they said, hail been taken off by a stroke from the paw of a huge jaguar, which also left the dears on his neck. The Yaqui was playing with the animal in the timber when the accident occurred and he afterward severely punished his rough playmate for its disastrous careless­ ness. This aud similar stories produced no farther effect upon the American min­ ers than to cause them to apply the cognomen of “Panther Joe" to Hijinio Carabel, the latter name being long ■and somewliat difficult to prononnep. It was six months after his arrival that the Yaqui earned the title of "Panther Joe,” and became a hero as well as a mystery to every man in the “diggiiigs." A family named Staplcy came out from California and estab­ lished a station near Antelope, but aeveraj miles from where any people v ere mining or living. One evening- after sundown, and when the men-folk were away, Mrs. Stapley Went lo the corral for the pur­ pose of milking her cows, taking with tier a little•- daughter 3 years old and also a rifle as pi election from tho con­ stant dangers of that country in that period. ’The woman had proceeded with her duties but a few minutes when •be was startled by a scream of terror from the child, and upon turning in tha direction of the sound was horrified to see a huge panther jump over the fence with her child in its mouth. Fkfcfrg up the rifle the thoroughly frightened mother rushed to the gate in an effort to rescue her offspring, but when outride the inclosure a moat UMxpected, unusual, and startling •ttuation was met. and while hope was HF. WAS PLATINO SOME ^EIRD MUSIC. proached it. vet it kept its feet upon the child all the while, and did not show the slightest inclination to aban­ don its prey. As Joe drew nearer and nearer the savagd animal became less' at ease, but his actions were more that of a dog punished into submission by its master than of a wild and ferocious beast seeking a incal on human flesh. Its power to move seemed lost; it । appeared to be under a fascination as strong ns that which serpent ever ex­ ercised over bird. When within about fix feet of tho panther Joe stopped playing on the mouth organ, and while uttering some words in a low tone, slowly straightened to his natural heigh th. At a single stride he was at the side of the brute, and with an exclamation of reproval he hit it a sharp blow over the head with the switch. The pan­ ther took first one paw and then the other from the body of the child and walked away doggedly for a few yards, when it stopped, turned around and licked its chops, as though it was not vet disposed to abandon its meal. However, a sharp "Hi-yi!” from tho In­ dian caused it to take a trot and quick­ ly disappear over the hills. Picking qp the child, Joo returned it to the delighted mother, who has­ tened to receive it, and without wait­ ing for her thanks ho turned away and followed the direction taken by the panther, vouchsafing the compli­ mentary remark: “tried brave gooman; usted no shoote; noted no holler." The miners all heard the remarka­ ble account next day when Stapley came up to the diggings for the pur­ pose of thanking. Joe. But the Yaqui was absent, and it was two days be­ fore he again put in an appearance. When he did so he showed signs of dis­ sipation, but, as it was known that he would have been unable to reach any place where whisky was to have been obtained without the miners learning of it, this condition was attributed to his experience with the panther nt the time the child was rescued or after he had followed it from-Stapler's place. Nothing could induce Joo to converse on the subject unlil some weeks after­ ward, when one of tho miners killed a panther, over which fact the Yanni grieved greatly and stated that the animal was his friend and tho one from which he saved the little child. The next winter was a dry one and the placers did not pan out well, so Ralph Smith, who is yet a resident and prominent citizen of Arizona, or­ ganized a party of ten men. Panther Joe being ot the number, to prospect for gold in the Mongolian Mountains. One evening, a few days after reach­ ing the desired locality and making camp, Smith and a companion named Phil Teal, while returning to supper from a disappointing examination of a gulch which from all appearances gave much promise of containing gold, had their attention suddenly attracted to the bottom land of a mountain stream by a humdrum, monotonous song, fol­ lowed by a particularly hearty laugh. Feeling" the necessity of ascertaining if Indians had a camp in that vicioity, they cautiously penctra&d a willow thicket in the direction of the sound. When they reached the creek they found themselves at the edge of a green open space in the shape of an amphitheater—a loind in tbe stream ana high precipitous walls of rock, d was compelled to suf- vari-coforea with mom<es and delicate jtense suspense. About mountain wild flower*, forming an al­ >m her stood the panther, most perfect circle. In its wild beauty nt feet upon the child, and usual solitude tbe scene would looking at raised and served to hand anu in a peculiar gibberish compel ling a large, full-grown fomalr cougar—the -dreaded American lion— to circle around him in the manner of a circus horse. With young at her side there is not a more dangerous or fierce^ autnuil to lie found in the wilds of .the American continent than the cougar, and this one not only had a whelp, but, what was more marvelous, it was riding on her back, where placed by the Indian. The mother watched Joe’s face as a bird-dog does that ol its master, and its submission was more through fear than iEclination. The re­ verse was true with the young one, which entered heartily into the enjoy­ ment of the ronins and would leap from its mother’s back iuto Joe’s lap, only to be returned again to its perch and "ex­ ercise of bareback riding. Joe would laugh loudly at these play­ ful antics, which afforded him the greatest amusement, and to all appear ances he was free from apprehenaious of danger, although he had a jratchful eye ujion the mother, and kept up that constant, weird and peculiar chant which first attracted the two mountain­ eers. To them tho scene was more wonderful than any described in the “Arabian Nights,” and, while at first they were held spellbound by a strange fascination, their natural feelings soon asserted themselves. To i>!av with an animal which would stealthily pursue a human being, pounce upon him, feed on his flesh and drink of ins blood was unnatural; it was disgusting aud re­ volting sorcery, and the one who pos­ sessed such jKiwers nnd took such enjoyment deserved to live no more than the brute itself. The ■ report of Teal’s rifle rang through the mountainsand forests, was echoed and re-echoed from a hundred canyons, and the lioness lay .dead at the Yaqui’s feet. Quickly crossing the creek. Smith killed the young one with his pistol, and then the two men se­ verely rebuked and reprimanded Joe for his conduct, telling him that io at­ tracting tho stealthy And voracious ani­ mal to the viejnitv of the camp he was endangering the lives of every member of the party, as in an unexpected mo­ ment anv one was likelvtobe attacked br it .iij killed. ’ The Yaqui wav also terribly indig­ nant ; his frame shook, his eves flashed fire, like the animals with which he had been associating, and he was scarcely able to articulate. Taking a hasty and sorrowful look at his two dead pets,.he told the prospectors, in a voice miked with indignation and contempt, (hat a big cat was do worse than a house cat, and if treated Uie same would do no more injury, and started off. When Smith nnd Teal reached comp, it wns to find tha't Joe had rolled up his blankets aud departed, whither du one knew. After the discovery of the Tombstcme mines “Panther Joe" again appeared in the territory, and for several ye vrs was employed by the large companies operating there. When Cole's circus was in San Francisco in I860, Joe con­ tracted, through a friend, for the de­ livery to them of two panthers for the sum of $300. In going East tho circus company side-tracked a car, with cage, nt Dragoon's summit to receive the animals, and the man in charge wassurprised to learn that Joe had them a mile from t*at station, simply held bv chains attac’^-d to collars lie had placed *aronnd their necks, uncaged nnd untamed. Obeying the instructions of the Yaqui. as conveyed through a messenger, he left the cage open the following night and kept all persons away from it. The next morning it contai..ed a fine specimen of an Amer­ ican lion and a female jaguar—the dreaded tiger of Mexico. When the Mexican Government de­ clared war against Cajeme, the chief of the Yaquis, a few years ago, “Panther Joe" returned to Sonora and was one among the first that fell in that unjust and unequal warfare.

Though Im family have long been the social magnates of the metropolis, William Waldorf Astor has not cut much of a figure as a “society man." His habits of thought and ways of life have been tboie of the student and man of affairs. Like his uncle, William Astor, he has delegated his social du­ ties almost entirely to his wife, a very beautiful woman, the daughter of a distinguished Philadelphia family, whom he married about fifteen years •go. Tbe estate left by John Jacob Aator has l>een variously valued in the newapapera. Some have placed it at $75,­ 000,000, none lower, wlule the esti­ mates have climbed to $400,000,000, this latter being the most sanguine production of all the “guessers," for it is guesswork pure and i-imple. The most reasonable estimate yet mode by an outsider of the Astor hold­ ings was given by a gentleman whose reputation is that of the best informed real estate “exjiert" in New York. It is his business to know the value of all properties in the city, and it is his pleasure to note and store away in his memory all details pertaining to im­ portant transfers, or those involving celebrated people or properties.

Randall, after a •continued service in tbe House of ktopreaenlativef for thirty years. He was the most conspicuous fig­ ure on the floors of Congrea* for more than twenty jetrs, and.was tbe acknowl­ edged leader of his party upon the floor. It is said ef him that he was a m-n of most wonderful self-control and iron will. This was displayed to largv de­ gree during the last Congress, when al­ most his solid party was arrajed against him on the tariff question, and.notwith­ standing the gigantic efforts of the whole administration to bring him over.

One of our tioureauj: riches, whe was desirous of having his father's portrait sketched, went to the paiutei and made known his desire. The artist a«kcd to see him who was to be paintI ed, but was informed that it was im1 pos-ible, as the old gentleman had taken up his permanent re.idence iu the cemetery. “Well, you have a photograph of him. haven’t you?" was the next question. “Got a photograph of him ? Well, 1 guess I wouldn’t be a cornin’ ’round here to get his portrait painted if I । had a picture of him already,” was the reply. At that moment a jnirtrait of Mojes that was hanging in the studio caught his eve, and he said: “Who's that?” “That’s a picture of Moses," was the' reply. “Well, if you could paint that old fellow, who lived cpBturies agn. I don’t see why you can>paint my father,who died only a few years ago." The first illustration gives a very good idea how one of the larva.* look's under the micro-cope.

Jujes Verne, Novelist. •- IHE best known IBB Verne ar© unique in tfJtho combination of XT B*^J[Hcientiflc informazgtion with inrideute, many of them of < -------- an astounding cliar^l acter, conatituting a well-constructed1 story. The deft and original quality iu Y erne's works has given them an amazing popularity. With the solitary exception of Victor Hugo, the most popular of recent French wnteruh Verne.who waa born at Nantes, France, in 1828. He read law, but the literary propensity in his nature dominated, and while yet a very young man he was addicted to the composi­ tion of plays and operatic j>i®ccs. Hi* firxt romance, “Fjve Weeks in a Balloon," was published ’a lien he was 35 years of age, and was received w ith favor. Among his numerous produc­ tions are, “Around the World in Eighty Davs.” “The Mysterious Island', “Michael Strogoff," and “Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas;" and he has o1m> produce 1 an illustrated geography of France. The first of these has been successfully dramatized, and many jseople have enjoyed seeing the effective display of stage effects in­ cidental to its production. Jules Verne never commenced a story without knowing how it was go­ ing to end. He writes the plot, then studies the details. The results of his studies are in notes of one word iu col­ umns, on sheets of paper, letter size. These words refer (o books in his li­ brary or to other notca of idzas or facte. When be has become Liailiar with his notes, he writes the story. From the day of his first novel, “Five Weeks in a Balloon," Jules Verne has been able to live by his pen; and has written since that time about two ftiimnes every year. * The pig had got out of liis pen, and little Billy Bartlett was trying to get ’ him back. Drive him he could not, pulling him by the ears was of no use. and whipping only made him squeal terribly. He was bound not to go in, and BUly was fliscouraged. “Why don’t you doax him?" said Great-Uncle Obed, leaning 0.1 his cane and watching the pair. Billy got some apples in a jtail and then niggie was willing to follow. “It’s no kind of use to think of driv­ ing a pig," said Uncle Obed. “I found that out whe 1 I was a little boy. One spring, in March, 'twas master slip­ pery. father'd had Moses Higgins, an old tinker, upto our house l>ottoming chain with ’basket stuff.’ Money waa icarce then, but father had a 'whole penful of ‘shoals’—that is, pigs win­ tered over—and Moses took one of there for his pay. They all had names, and the oxe he picked out was ‘Bad.’ Moses wdk a great, clumsy man. and nothing to do but I must drive the shoat to hi* house, a mile and a half off. Father wa* gone that day ‘braking* flax for a neighbor, so mother tied a jope about Dad's neck pretty light, .gave me a birch switch, and sent me ofi with my sister Lyddv Ann to keep me Company. “Dad didn’t want to go away from home a mite, and in spite of the switch­ ing I gave hit legs, he would turn about every little while and run for home. I would drag at the lopeaud Lvddv Ann would pull by his ears, and after a struggle we would get him headed the other way. . “At length we were st the top of a long hill up which wo had pushed und pulled Dad by main strength, when *a rabbit ran across the road. At this Dad turned tail anil fed forborne again with all his wight, and he could run like a deer. Ii w as done so quick that we got past Lyddy Ann in the ruca be­ fore you could say ’scut:' but she g:abbe<l hold of my frock as I failed by and hung on. "I set my heels hard, but away wo went. Sometime < I was down on my back, scooting along like a bob-sled; sometimes 'twas Lyddy Ann. My hands were scratched, my tron-ey knees w ere torn, and my frock turned up over my head. Lyddy Ann's hood was gone,, and she lost a tooth, but'twas one she'd been a-trying to get rid of for quite n Sf'cll. She didn’t expect it to be yanked out quite so sudden, though. “A piebald horse, hitched to a greenpnng with two old ladies in ’ it. was coming along at the foot of the hill» and the mad was narrow. Oh dear! Wo expected there would lie an awful calamity! And ho did Dad. I guess, for he set back on his haunchesm.d be­ gan to squeal: but he'd got to going aud couldn't stop, it was so icy. “The old ‘piebald’ didn't like itr cither, and as Dad bore dow n upon him. be jumped to one side to let him goby, DCarlv upsetting tbe dear old ladies. “ •fahoo! shoo! Got out o’ the road! What under the canopy is ii?’ they cried. “But Dad flew squealing by. and when we got to the bottom ot the hill he was cutting across lots on tbe hard crust. We chased him all over a fouracre field before he found a chance tc climb the wall, for the snow bud settled away considerably. It wus steep and high on the other side of the wall. Dad didn't stop for that. Over ho went, but he didn’t get far. The big knot at * the end of his iope caught between the stones, and when Lyddy Ann and 1 could get to him he dangled limp on the other aide; with the squeal ait gone and the curl nil out of his tail. “Poor Dad! He’d hung himself! I grabbed the knot from between thcstones, and he fall down on the cruat. Lyddy Ann fanned him as hard as she could with the skirt of her frock, and in a minute he came to. Then she pro­ posed a bright plan. “ ‘Let’s get some corn and tole him along,* she said. “We weren’t far fjom homo by thii time. She ran back for a little bagful of ears, and went ahead shelling it on the road. Dad followed, granting nnd smacking happily, and fo we got to the place at last. — Youth's Companiou. Work in Paris. In the factorie* of Paris all work is done by contract. The foreman of each department is called upon to bid o» the job, and if the factory is successful in obtaining the work, the foremao takes it at the price which he ha* bid on it, hires his own men at from fifteen to sixteen cents an hour and overseen the work. The proprietors of the fac­ tory guarantee the foremen twenty cents an hour; then they say to him. “For as much less than your original bid as you can do this job we will allow you one-third." The consequences are that he drives the men in older to iocrease his gains. Much attention has been drawn tc the Great Auk in recent years by the astonishing price paid by collectors fot its skins and eggs, while Faller’s Cor­ morant, the extinction of which iu the North Pacific corre*pond> to that of the Great Auk in tho North Athuatio, Leonhard Sfejneger.uf the Nmithsoniaiy Institution, states that this bird waa the largest and handsomest of its tribe.

Tbe case on which the decision is based is that of A. J. Smith vs. The Auditor General, Smith asking for a mandamus to compel the Auditor Gen­ eral to pay over $’M»0 bounty which he was promised on enlisting, but never re­ ceived. In an indirect way the Court censures tbe Auditor General for urging tbe statute of limitations as one of the grounds for refusing to pay the'claim. During the war the Legislature author­ ized the issue of $2,000,000 in bonds to pay these bounties; $1,306,000 was is­ sued, and after this sum was expended uo more bounties were paid. Tho Court holds that the present Governor bn« full authority to issue the remaining $6J4,J00 in bondsXt any time necessary to apply in paying bounty claims. It i« not probable that this amount will be re­ quired, but still tbe claims will foot up several hundred thousand dollars.

Il will Le remembered that, some weeks ago. when the Senate wav act­ ing upon tbe Oklahoma bill, Seuator Ingalls tncked on »n amendment limiting office-holdera to actual residents. Tho reason given for this was that tho Kansas Senator had been to the President nnd rtiked for n Judgeship for ono of his con­ stituent and hud been refused.

Ingalls said noth­ ing. bift the fruits of his thinking were visible iu the bill in tho provision com­ pelling tbe appointing power to confine appointments to residents. Since tbat time, however, the wrath of the Kansas *ydonic Senator has been appeased, the obnoxious feature in tbe bill has I eeu stricken out, und one of the now judges will come from Kausjis.

Nevertheli 6 ue kept up appearances and eaten-.1 the court room with an air of dignified Belf-ponsession. The bulk of the day's business hsd panion tn dirtreoa were summoned at - "What is thia case?” demanded the judge. “This man," resjonded the police­ man, jerking his .bumb towards the ragged tramp, "accuses this gentleman at ataallng his oloth<-s.” The judge glanced in surprise from ana to tbe other of tbe parties, and ha looked sharply at laiwrence as if tbe face reminded him of somebody. Thon he ordcrea tbe complainant to step up and naked him bis name. "Lawrence Drane.” was the cool reply. Again the judge seemed to be trjdng to recall something out of the dim roaesMa of bis memory, but tho effprt tailed, and ho com)-osod himself to lis­ ten to the complainant's story. The false Drane told-exactly what had hap­ pened at tho bath-bouae, not deviating in tbe slightest (articular from tho truth, except as his story implied his jlaim to ownership in the clothes which tho real Drane had on. “Did you ever we the prisoner bofore?” anked the judge. “I think I saw him not more than three days ago.” replied the impostor; “It was late in tbe afternoon and ho had a skate on. I remember him b.'cause it these rags which be wore at the dme." Tbe Judge turned to Mr. Drane, who had been listening inu ntly. and began the examination in tho usual way, by asking hin name. Ijiwrenoe was vehe­ mently moved to denounce his accuser, but he rocaljed his determination to wntrol his tongue in this episode; th orelore he responded simply: “Lawrence Drane." A big scowl tangled the judge’s eyeWowi and puckered up his lips. Judicial memory was again in process of castigadon. This time the mental prodding turned up a clow. “Haven't you been here before!" he lemanded sternly. Mr. Drane'* cunscienoe wriggled and noaned under the temptation of menlacity. Ho was immorally certain that t good lie would bo more efficacious in lhe emergency than a guardian angel; Mt his gentlemanly instincts revolted at lying., -pecl&lly when ho know he eras in tho nghu Moreover the angel waa present the ’ court-room, though Lawrence didn't know it and she bad Dot aS yet d iscoven -d him. Perhaps ber teflucnoe had something to do with inAaeing him to falter an affirmative to tee judge’s question. The reply stlmatotod the judge's m«-mory wonderfully. "You tried to pass yourself under two Mbfi then, didn't you?” he continued. “May I explain, your honor—” "Did you or didn't you?

Oranges are grown all over the In a Chicago Cemetery. semi-tropical world. Spain, Italy, Northern Africa, China, Southern Cali­ fornia, Florida, Cults, and Palestine send their quota of the fruit io the great markets. But for excellence the Florida orange takes the lead. Florida produces a larger variety of oranges and brings them to greater perfection than any other region in the orange belt. . Whether thia is to be attributed to the soil, the climate, or to methods of cultivation has not been definitely decided, though I fancy the latter causelias the most to do with the ex­ cellence of the Florida fruit.

The one servant of the establishment was out, so the mistress herself ojtenod the door. “What do you wint?" she asked, rather sharply, not much liking his ap­ pearance. The man looked at her, opened his eye* wide as if struck with amazement, and said: “Well, madam, I don't want any thing. I see I’ve made a mistake. The fact is, I’ve come to the wrong house."

Two Left Hands and No Head. The author of "Tom Brown" tells n* of a nurse that watched ever Tom’s infancy, who was gifted with “two left hands and no head." How often this anomalous- individual is found outside of the nursery! In the kitchen she is always dropping dishes and making the fortune of the crockery dealer*. In school he is always at the foot of his cIbm. rather by reason of a certain mental caralesane** and inaptitude than because of positive stupidity. In politic# he is constantly making' those blunders which statesmen pronounce worse than crime. In society, by vari­ ous , contretemps and maladroit re­ marks, he blazes his way through life. If there is a corn under* the table, h» is sure to step on it; if there is a sore and sensitive heart, he is sure to probe the wound with his bungling laucet, and without the least intention of hurt­ ing any one’s feelinss. Sometimes this man with two left hands finds his wav into tbe pulpit, aud then, ala*, hi* awkward work is often disastrous in­ deed. He can not perceive the differ­ ence between foolish preaching and the foolishness of preaching. He can not be made to liebevc that a word in due season is any better than a word out of season. In any walk of life this man seems to have no innate concep­ tion of little proprieties or the small amenities. A course of action is al­ ways in hi* eye*, lawful or unlawful, never expedient or inexpedient. Verj often such a man labors under the de­ lusion that he is usually frank and honest, aud, if he gets into trouble through hi# inveterate bungling, he is likely to pride himself ou being a martyr to the truth, where in reality he deoerves no more honor for his brav­ ery than the man who runs Jtis head against a hornet’s nest. ./However, many a man who starts out in life in this sad condition is by no means a hopeless case. By recognizing hf# besetting faults, by taking the advice of friends, by putting himself under the tutelage of a judicious wife, by care and thought and prayer, by look­ ing al the "other side of the shield,” and by recognizing the right# of other peojile. he can often become ambidex­ trous, nnd aven grow a head with brains in it. This proces* of development ia worth striving for.—Golden Jiule. “Yes, sir, it is a great problem: how we are going to keep the street* clean,” taid the absent-minded man aa he slowly walked along with clouded brow. nd than io jouris de­ trials tribula- M.tr Wa*blh*ton dispatch: The conferenew people committees of the House atid Senate on lhe stiver qnsrttyi have come to a* agreement.

Tbe case on which the decision is based is that of A. J. Smith vs. The Auditor General, Smith asking for a mandamus to compel the Auditor Gen­ eral to pay over $100 bounty which he was promised on enlisting, but never received. In an indirect way the Court censures the Auditor General for urging the statute of limHationk as one of the grounds for refusing to pay th* claim. During tbe war the Legislature author­ ized tbe issue of $2,000,000 in bonds tc pay these bounties; $1,306,000 was is­ sued, and after this sum was expended no more bounties were paid. The Court holds that the present Governor ba* full authority to issue th* remaining $694,­ 000 in bonds at any time necessary tc apply in paying bounty claims. It i* not probable that this amount will be re­ quired, but still tho claims will foot up several hundred thousand dollar*.

As the season pro­ greases and tbe contest grows hot those who have kept aloof will gradually return, and the game will be restored to all its wonted popularity. TLe national pa<time is too popular with the American people to receive tny permanent injury by a movement such as the brotherhood made. The onlv thing that could kill .the game would Le for it to fall into dikrepuable hand* and thus let the public loec confi­ dence in it. Such a stage will probably never bo reached in it* history. One ot tbe remarkable things tbi* Reason has been the rough handling the 'pitchers have received at the hands of the b.ttera. Many people have asked if any rules have been made to handicap the pitchers. Tho answer is. "No.” The sumo rules as last Beason prevail, and last year the pitchers sb u rule had tho best of it. Tnere is but one explanation for the heavy batting, and that la that the pitchers are not yet conditioned. The spring was so backward that tho cham­ pionship season was here before the clubs bad any practice at all. .The rewult was that tbe pitchers went into the field half­ conditioned and unable to bold tbeir own. When tho Lot weather comes they will no doubt assert them­ selves. There can Le no question that all ‘ho leagues opened their champion­ ship season too early. All of Apnl should be given np to practice and tho championship season should not bo started until May 1 of each year. Last week the weather w»s entirely too cold for ball-playing except one day, and those who had tne temerity to go* to tho ?;mes are now no doubt developing colds. hen, too, the effect is bad on-the play­ er*. Cold weather doos not affect them in the fall as in tho spring, as they are sea-oned and able to stand it. In tho i spring, however, they are unable to with­ stand cold weatbor. and soreness is the result, which is oftentimes not gotten rid of until the summer is well advanc«d. During tbe week the two Chicago clubs have done very creditable work. Anson's young men, by a profitable series with the Pittsburg Leaguers, raised themselves from tbe third place on tbe list to the top of the whole League crowd. Il may seem remarkable that a team of colt* should lead tho old veterans of the Brook­ lyn, Boston, Cineinnati, and Now York team*, but tbo fact is les* strange when tbe - playing of these colt* is examined. Anson, in his rambles over tbe country, has .found some wonder­ fully promising talc nt. Some of his young players would have figured as stars of the League in the League a best days. Young Cooney, Kitlridge, Nagle, Andrews, and O'Brien are player* whose equals are not to be found every day. Tbe start in tbe National League has been not only en­ couraging to th.-msolvee but highly sat­ isfactory to their managers and tbeit friend* as well. On tho whole, the local Lcafpie men play a game of ball which, if continued, insures them a good place in the percentage column at tbe general round-up next fall. O. P.

Chicago, and sew York, and Is signed by all the member* Plumb, Manderson, and Farwell. The several legislative measures proJiosed bv the committee to remedy the evils of tho trtffic are set forth in Mr. Vest'* statement in the report of th® Senate proceedings. The roan !t:e»» says that when the examination of wit­ dent that conflicting Influences were at work, especially in ‘ho International Cattle Range Association, and that in­ dustrious effort* were being flude to prevent the Inquiries of the coniinlttee affecting Injuriously the dressed beef Interests of Chicago. There was no diversity of opinion among tli« wltnessee as to tho price and as to the fact that the methods of M-lling beef cattle had been entirely revolution­ ized In tho last ton years. The revolu­ tion took tiie form of a concentration qf the market for cattle at a tow point*, with the controlling market at Chicago. This change, tho committee says, I* doe principally to the fact that n few enter­ prising mom nt Chicago are able, through their enormous capital, to cen­ tralize and control tije business at that point. Tho dressod-lwef and canning busi­ ness Is practically in the hands of four j-tabllshments In Chicago—Armour A Co.. Swift A Co.. Nelson. Morris A Ca. and Hammond A Co. Whatever differ­ ence of opinion Is expressed as to th® existence of a combination borweon then® firms nut to bld against each other In the purchase of cattle there was no hesitation on the part of witnesses, even when obvlouslv prejudiced In favor of the packers. In slating that the control of the market was absolutely In the grasp 6t these four houses if they chose to exercise* iL As a result of the Influence of these houses the committees noticed a reluct­ ance on the nart of cattle riUsers and commission men to testify to facts or opinions which might prejudice them in. future transactions. Tho principal In­ quiry which tho commiittoo was directed to make was as to the existence of combination "by reason of which, the prices of beef and beef cattle.have been so controlled and affected as to diminish tho prices paid the producer without lessoning the cost of of meat to the con­ sumer.*’ The facts developed, some of which are dctaileu in the report, the committee thinks proveoverwhehningly a combiuation such as is described in the clause of the resolution quoted above. The committee quotes a statement Irou Mr. Armour's testimony that beet cattle had increased more rapidly than population during tho last five years, from which ho argued that the low prices of beef cattle are partly dne to overproduction. This arguinon], the committee states, I* not warranted by the facts, and the, com­ mittee has no hesitation in stating that a combination exists nt Chicago which controls tbo market and lixe* tbe price of beef cattle in its own Interest. The railroad trunk line, say* the com­ mittee, controls the entire moat traffic of.the country in the intor^gts ol the railroad companies. Comparing tho railroad charges on a car of wheat and a ear of dressed beef, the committee shows a discrimination In favor of dressed beef of about 60 |»er cent. A* to the remedies to relievo tbe situation the comm itLoe says that Congress. In the bill recently passed by the Senate on the subject of trusts, has gone so far as Its power extend*. Slate legislation must supplement that by Congress to punish, combines operating within thcStale lines, and active. Intelligent officials must bo found toenfnre tbo laws enacted. ••If tho Federal and State authority shall thus act in concert and the other legislation as to unjust discrimination by railroads In transporting cattle, tbe removal of quarantine restrictions as to American cattle shipped to Great Britain, and tho breaking up of tho mo­ nopoly in tho steamship carrying trade of cattje to foreign ports be enacted, w® have groat confidence in obtaining re­ lief from existing evils.” In conclusion tho committee says : “If the cattle-raisers of the United Stale* are onlv true to themselvc*. tho immediate future promises deliverance from present evil*. There is no excuse for panic. The worst feature of the cattle trade Is the fact that so many cows and calves are being thrown upon, the market; tbo Indication being that producers are panic-stricken, and anxious to realize now without regard lo the future. Thorn worn marketed at Chicago during the last year 3,023.381 cattle, of which from 25 to 20 per cent were cows, aud 4 per cent were calves. ••The cattle-raisers of the United States should be and an- the most compotent Judge* as to their own Interest*, but If they will accept a suggestion from those whose duty II ha* been for month* to examine tbe cattle question In all Its aspects, they will cease morketing their breeding and immature stock and pre­ prepare for a larger supply and a brighter future.

LONG IN 1862-’63*64 the Confederate lost many of its beat men through the malarial influences of the swamps and low-lying country of the Mississippi and he Arkansas rivers. Quinine became ex­ ceedingly valuable, but as the blockade of Southern ports grew more and more intact it wa* next to impossible to get any of the drug through the lines. Tho demand l»ecame so great that orders were sent out to the different commands to se-' lect from among their number a few men of nerve, ingenuity, and patriot­ ism to the Southern cauae who could be depended upon under the most crit­ ical cxrcumstances. These men wore to lie-instructed in the hazardous du­ ties of smuggling quinine, and were to have the sanction of the Confederate Government, and the protection, as far as it cnuld go, of the Confederate army. They were to go into the Union lines as refugees, or in any wav deemed most advisable by them,’ and werej to purchase large quantities of the drug, •nd use, every means possible to get it throng!. Among the men selected for this hazardous duty wn* a young student of medicine, who has since that time become prominent as one of the best physicians of the country. th*. James Guthrie wns born in Poca­ hontas County, Virginia, now West Virginia, and when the war broke out enlisted mi the Confederate army, final­ ly in 1862 becoming attached as an assistant surgeon to General Kirby Smith’s army. When the order of thWar Department readied General Smith’s department one of the firnt men selected for the hazardous duty was young Guthrie, then a mere lx>y of twenty or therealxiuta. He willingly accepted the dangerous commission, and set out for St. Louis. Mo., with credentials hidden al out hts person. When he reached St. Lcriis he stowed away in a safe place several thousand dollars in gold with which he had been provided by the Confederate Govern­ ment to purchase the drag. Days were •pent about the hospitals by the young student and acquaintances made with the official*, until after the lapse of a few weeks he became to all intents and appearance a regular assistant of the .surgeon*. . No suspicion of the character of his business was ever created, aud it wus not long before young Guthrie was able to go about the city purchasing medicines and drugs ostensibly for use at the hospitals where so many Union soldiers lay wounded and sick. Day after day the young man purchased, first here and then there, at different drug •tores, ounce after ounce of quinine until after the {apse of several weeks he had enough secured as he believed to juMifiv a trip into the Southern lines. Meanwhile he had made the acquaintance of a tinsmith of undouhted Southern sympathy to w bom he imparted his secret. One night this tinsmith and the youngdoctor col­ lected all the quinine he had purchased ight. in a suit of clothes Ixmgbtat » «wondhand stoje started out of the city.

Here he unloaded ionable tailor to his bark-covered tubes, and after tying the query: “The them together and attacking a bunch spring fashions are of brash to them to make them look like an ordinary bunch of drift he put all out,” said the artist. “In a general them in the river and let them float way it may be said that neat checks off in the mirrent, which they did, look­ and small stripes will be very inpular, ing like a bunch of brush which had and occasionally a modest plaid will l»c floated from t he shore.

In four days* provisions, and an old blan­ a general tray it may be said that the styles in vogue last year are to be re­ ket thrown in as good moaxurc. Tbe young smuggler floated and produced for this season, but in the rowed away night after night, some­ times ahead aud often behind the bunch of brush which hid away the all­ important tubes of quinine. In the daytime, whenever near the lines or outposts of the Union forces, he would remain hidden in some creek or small stream with his boat and bunch of driftwood in close proximity. After three nights’ travel early one morning, as he was’ quietly floating and paddling along about one hundred yards from the shore, he was halted for the fifth qy sixth time and com­ manded to laud. Of course he did so, expecting t4 find himself questioned by a Union vidette. Meantime the quinine was calmly and smoothly float­ ing along just ahead of him. But this time tho young doctor found himself confronted with a squad of Confeder­ ate cavalry, mj outpost of General Jo­ seph Shelby’s brigade. The Captain in charge closely questioned him a* to Iris business and where he was going, and not perfectly satisfied with his answers, ordeyed liim to mount a horse aud nde to camp, about one mile be­ low. Young Guthrie knew that if he wr< taken into a Confederate camp, which was located below where he had been arrested, his quinine was safe and he quietly mounted, determined, how­ ever, not to give a hint of hi* real bn»:* ness until he was sure that he w as with friends. . The squad and their prisoner soon reached the headquarters of the colonel commanding, when the prison­ er was turned over to the commanding officer. When tho young smuggler found that he was really with friends he produced his credentials and told the commander the secret of his busi­ ness. A boat, or rather two or three skiffs and small punts.were soon found, aud the young fellow, accompanied by several soldiers, paddled along shore up-stream until they met the little bunch of driftwood. They soon towed it ashore at the camp, where the long matter of detail the new fashions are tin tubes with their bark covering were wholly unlike those of a year ago. taken out of the water.

The coat is essentially width, and have the faintest suspicion of spring at the bottom. There are several distinct varieties of business amts, but the one intended to interest swell dressers who desire a relief from the straight, double-breast­ ed sack is the three-button cutaway nack. It is picturesque and graceful, and, if properly made, will adjust itself beautilolly to the curves of the human form- For the most part the fabric is of diagonal cheviot, but nlaids and soft check patterns are equally appropriate.. If a fancy vest is worn, the one most fitting is of Maroeilles linen, although freedom of choice may be exercised on this point. - The length of this coat is a tritie longer than obtains generally in the sack design. The roll of the collar should not be less than five inches, with full lapels and a general appearance of freedom and ease. As to the bottom corners of the coat, or what wonld lie the corners if not cut away, they should recede from an inch below tho lower button. All the pockets should have flaps, with the discretion of having the upper pocket made with a welt.. Ivory buttons are considered the very proper form, and the edges should be double- It is a strange provision of nature that when any of the animal senses are not needed or used snch attributes soon become aborted, and eventually disappear altogether.

It is said that a dog trotting across a bridge wonld do more injury to the structure than a loaded car. The sus­ pension bridge connecting Brooklyn and New York City is probably the only suspension bridge in the wotld over which horses arc allowed to trot. There seems to be no restriction placed upon speed on this bridge. Why this is the ease no one apftears to be able to explain ; nevertheless, tho bridge, still new, comparatively speak­ ing, l»egins to show deterioration. En­ gineers say if trotting is not stopped the structure will soon be unsafe. THREE stitched, narrow. The vest is supposed to be notched and taclose with five but­ tons. What manner of overcoat should a man wear this* season ? The creators of fashion haven’t l>een so fastidious in this respect aa in others, and. in a. general way. it mav be said that tbe spring overcoat of last year is appropriate now. The fly-front oversack or Ches­ terfield u the common favorite. Soft worsteds are tbe correct material, and the length for the average man is from thirty-six to thirty-seven inches. There is one important change, however. As a matter of course the three-bntto'n cutaway will still be the popular garment, and will lead, all others this season, as for several in the past. For half-dress and for general style, well-made appearance, they can not ba surpassed. The favorite shade will be blue-gray, with either fiat braided edge or narrow stitching. The coat may be worn with a vest of the same ma­ terial, or as fancy as the wearer de­ sires, and the trousers ahonld be just a trifle nanower than last year, with the suspicion of a spring at the bottom. This make* about as swell an outfit as is in the market. A very stylish conceit for men of middle age. especially for those of tall and blender build, is the two-button cutaway morning suit. As the name implies* the coat closes with two but­ tons, set wide apart, and the whole effect is most graceful. Cheviots, iu any chaste pattern, is the proper ma­ terial for the coat. The vest may be of fancy goods, and the trousers in checks, plaids, or stripes, as preferred. For trousers, this season, the patterns run almost entirely to plaids and stripes, the latter being the most fa­ vored. When the entire suit is cut from the same piece, soft plaids are in good grace, but by all odds the most popular effect is diagonal of rather broad wale. For vesta there is an end­ less variety of fancy designs in light materials, such as silk pique, linen, mohair, fend so on. A Good Man.

The more scientific breeders of pigeons have made a great many experiments for the purpose of ascertaining which of these eggs, in tbeir order of being laid, produces the male aud which the female bird. and. though no rule can l>e imagined that has no exception, it has become an established fact virtually among fan­ ciers themselves that the egg first laid produces the female, the second the male. Although the erection of the Eiffel Tower was merely a financial venture, as we all know, and proved a ven table Ixinanza to its projectors, the results of its standing there during the Exposi­ tion may l»e highly advantageous to science ami hygiene. For instance, meteorologists found the air remarka­ bly pure and wholesome at tbe top, and a British savant, an authority on air, proposes to bring down, by means of a high tower, a continuous supply of the article, which can be introduced at an agreeable temperature into all the pul>lie buildings, Imtels, theaters, dwell­ ings, aud the like. If the theory is practicable, and there is no reason why it is not. it is to be hoped that this will be done There are a great many strange ideas brought out in our larger chemical and physical laboratories, many things— theories—that, while appearing jdausible wo those within the scientific circle, partake of the marvelous and approach the supernatural when placed before the people outside this ring For in­ stance, the chemist will tell that those dry shingles on the roof in the hottest nun for a month or more contain onehalf their weight of water. We very naturally become skeptics, and ask for the papers. Then the physicist will read from his records that, with the most economical methods known of making steam and applying over ninety-five per cent, of the fuel is lost in friction and imperfect combnstion; that the coat of making the steam that passes through tho esca}>evalves during twenty-four hours is more than our national debt. When both of them together will ask us to believe that if an ordinary person was subjected to sufficient pressure to dis­ pel all the moisture of the body the substance left would be smaller than a pea, we are almost staggered and turn incredulously away; but all of these propositions are absolute facte, and the smallest fraction of the wonders of na­ ture have not yet been told.

He con­ tinued to fall, and a physician being called in It was found that he was suffering from a stroke ot paralysis. His condition is critical. There la a well-defined impression al the capital that no river and harbor bill will be passed thia session. The story is that an agreement on the subject has been reached between the White House and prominent men in the Senate and Rfouae to let it lie over until next session, when a bill will be passed of much larger dimensions than the cue now proposed. With ths certainty that the new pension legislation will add between $50,1*10,(*X) and 87U.UJO.OOO to ti^s budget, the prospect ot many millions a.ore for steamship subsidies and sundry other matters to be provided ot a miscellaneous character. Ills certain that there would be a deficiency should a 125.000.000 river and harbor bill go through, sad the story goes that the *ug4S*tlon has como from the Preaident and has been well received at the Capitol to let the rixjr and harbor bill go by rather than that the other legislation should fall. _______ * four weeks have been practically doeerted ; banging.

Death was caused by apopiexy. and was marked by the ab­ sence of any member of his fatally or any of hl* numerous friends. Mr. Shuman had been observed walk­ ing on Quincy street about 10;30 o'clock. Ho appeared tick and seemed to walk with difficulty. H* ascended the flrat flight of stair* at Na 18 and asked of Mr*. Wheeler, wife of the proprietor of th* place, for a room. He complained of feeling ill and asked that ho be shown a room Imme­ diately. He was assirned to Na 5. the second room from the haaa of tho stair*, and, hurriedly disrobing, retired at once. After Mrs. Wheeler had shown him tho room she went for a towel, there being none on the wa*h-staud. When she roturned with It she heard heavy breath­ ing. accompanied by an effort at vomit­ ing. She opened the door and found Mr. Shuman In bed lying on his left side with the fare burled in the pillow. Mrs. Wheeler ran to the office, where hor husband and son.Benjamin Wheelet, and a young woman named Miss Belle Hoyo were playing at cards. She ex­ citedly told thi-m of the condition of the late arrival, for It was not known al that time who the man waa. They hur­ ried to the room and found Mr. Shuman lying partly on bls back. Hl* face was of a deathly pallor, and the eyes were turned upward and rapidly setting in death. ■ He was choking. Mre. Wheeler lore open his shirt col­ lar. thinking ll wguld fact Ulate his respiration, and this result wa* tempor­ arily accomplished. But for'a moment only. The choking sound at the throat Increased .and tho breathing . was labored. HU eyys closed and opened, but there was no recocnitlon in them. His hands, white and moist with the damp of death, clutched convulsively and all was over. Mr. Shuman lived with hl* wife and daughter at Evanston. He usually left for Evanston about 5 In the evening. Ho had Intended remaining in the city for the night, the early partof the even­ ing having beau spent In conference with some political friend*. He was very devoted to hl* wife, who has been an'invalid for a number of years. She only quite recently returned from a health resort In New York state, where she had been for several months. He was greally concerned about her condition. Just before her departure from tho health Institution she telegraphed to h'er daughter to come to her Immediately. Because the dispatch wa* sent to Ms daughter and was not more explicit nearly prostrated him with fear that she had suddenly grown worse. He told a friend that he believed he would go In­ sane if some word from hi* wlfo did not rea<'h him. This constant worry about hor had produced visible effects iu hl* own condition.

The loading sections were tho t^ade councils, which Included eight groups, reprteeentlng the leather trades, metal and cabinet workers, aqd-Xho- shipping, clothing, printing. pap»-r. and building trades. These bodies, iu which were numerous related trades mustered in specified districts of the metropolis early In the forenoon and marched, headed by their leaders and with bands and ban­ ners, toward tho Thames embankment, tho central point, whence the marshaled array was ordered to start for tho Park. The gigantic procession was timed to start at 3 o'clock, and punctually at that hour It moved off amid thunderous cheers and the blending music of many bands. The route toward the park was along Bridge street, BL James* park and Bird-Cage walk, which were Hued with spectators. Masses of artisans joined the paraders on the way, until on enter­ ing the park tho estimated number of men In line was 150.000. Tho total niimbenRtklng part In the various processions is estimated at 170.ooo. and these were almost lost in the vastness of the assemblages gathered around the < thirteen platforms upon which the labor-day advocates held forth. Among the far-stretching, dense crowd no police were visible. Order* from headquarters to refrain from interferrlng or cooperating with the organizer* of the demonstration had caused the police to judiciously keep in the background. After the pnraders had formed around ‘.he platforms the speaking commenced.

There were about ninety patlente in small cells, many of them raving man­ iacs,’some In chains and fotterr, and they had no means of escape. Tho lire was discovered by J. A. Mc­ Kenna of Burlington, who had Just en­ tered the asylum for treatment for Io?* of memory. He was sitting In his room after being examined when he felt the plaster on the wail growing warm. Ho sprang to his fe^t and ran onl ahoutlng ••Fire." He becamc-confused and after being nearly smothered with * smoke gained the door. He was accompanied by J. J. Enright of Burlington. Mc­ Kenna Is quite rational, but greatly ter­ rified. He lost all his effects and has telegraphed to friends In tho United States of his condition The scene of anguish that ensued when the magnitude of the disaster was realized was almost without parallel. There were 1,300 Inmate* In the build­ ing. many of them bed-ridden. As fast as possible they were rushed to the western wing, hurried down stair* and out upon the grounds. There upon’the wet grass some of them huddled to­ gether under the cover of blanket*, while others wandered through the grounds with faces untouched by the horror of the scene. More than l.ooo helpless creatures were gathered together within the In­ closure of the grounds, guarded only by the man at the gate. Ono young girl Ip the midst of the drizzling rain, thinly clad, sat at a piano on-, tho grounds and played soft music, while the terrible flames roared above her. Those who saw the spectacle will never forget IL In reply to tho question, how many lines were lost: “I don’t know,” one fireman said, "I saw dozens struggling against those bars," pointing to the top windows In the rear of tho eentral building. ••They were blackened and shrieking# No help could- reach them and they fell back Into tnc flames.” ‘•I saw a largo number of men and women clinging to tho windows,” said Fireman Laporte, "but nothing could be done. How many perished no one knows. Dozens, 1 am sure. I tried to rescue two women, but could not reach them. I saw them falling back into tho flames. It Is rumored that seven nuns connected with tho Institution were burned to death. ■ On calling over tho roll it was found that nearly 300 patients wore missing, but it Is expected that a large-propor­ tion of these will bo found eventually. Tho surgeon of the asylum says that certainly fifty patients are dead, and the sisters admit that tho death-roll may run beyond ?oo. Tho financial loss reaches 31,350.000. The Box Didn’t Make Chnnge. It would be supposed that by this time nearly every man, woman and child in this city would know enough about the money boxes in street cars to enable them to put their faro in the box. Especially in this case when there is a largo sign staring the pas­ senger in the face to pot "the exact fare in the box." The other day a lady, nicely dress­ ed. boarded a short lino Birmingham car at the corner of Carson afld Tenth streets, to ride to the city. She flash­ ed out of her pocket, which was con­ cealed where no man could ever find it: a beautiful little purse, and extracting a dime, she refused the proffered aid of a fellow pasuenger to put her fare in the box. She walked to the forward end of tho car and dropped the dime into the opening of the box. Then she stood there with an expectant look on her face and one hand on the top of the box. Whether she expected the box would open and hand out a nickel in change in about tho same manner as practiced by a cabinet “speak easy" the other passengers could only guess. The driver told her she would. have to stand the loss of the nickel unless the car took on another passenger. At the Pitteburg end of the bridge another paasenger got on. He wore a light blonde mustache and self-satisfied air of "mashing" anything in sight, as he tripped past tho young lady. As he asked the driver for two nickels in exchange for a dime, the mule puncher told him of the young lady's predica­ ment. Of course, he was only too glad to pay her back the five cents and uniled sweetly as he handed over that amount. With a “yon-bet-I’m-in-it* expression, he turned around and drop-, ped the other nickel in tho box. Then he discovered that he was out a nickel, -and the smiles of the passengers made him go out and commune with himself. The individual who enjoyed the joke the most was the young lady who caused hia misfortune.—Pitttburg Dupatch. _____________________ Wanted to Know. “ ‘Scuac me, ma'am, but I’d idee to aak you a question,” said a long, leath­ ery, keen-eyed woman to an elegantly clad and aristocratic-looking ladr sit­ ting in front of her on a railroad Irain. “very well," replied the lady haughtily.

She bought het gowns of the color which Flank said they preferred; she practiced her songs with freah zeal upon hearing they were fond of music. She waa an affectionate, generoui.girl. and eager for love. But when the wedding was over, and Frank and his wife arrived at his mother’s bouse, there wa* a look of dis­ may iu the eyes of her new relatives which they could rot conceal. They tried to meet her appealing glances with a cordial welcome, but they could not be blind to the tear in her dress which was pinned together, or tp the grease a] ota on her elegant cloak.

Cora Boyce never overcame the un­ tidy habits of her youth. All her warm affections, her l>eauty, her gay wit, could not win thc respect of her new kinsfolk for a woman who came to breakfast iu curl-papers aud a dirty wrapper. Hex husband, who had seen her before marriage only in the draw­ ing-room. was shocked, distressed, and at last out ot patience with her sloven­ liness. She ia an old woman now, and has married children, but ahe never has been able to understand why the love which ahe has .given ao generously to those dear to her never has l>eea repaid in kind, nor why her children are ashamed when ahe meets their friends. She haa undoubtedly made many efforts to change her personal habit* in this regard, but such habits, when once firmly established -by an 'untidy childhocxl and youth, are almost incur­ able in manhood and womanhood. She does not know, perhaps even now, that she lacks that homely qual­ ity of which Strebling says, “It la a virtne. the presence of which we do not notice in a woman, though ita absence drives ns mad." C'eanHneas assuredly comes next to godliness in winning respect for man or uuman.

Washing r<>\d spatch: The Secretary of the Treasury ha« transmitted to the Senate a report from Datus E. Coon, Chinese inspector at San Diego, Cal., dated April 21, with respect to evasions of the Chinese exclusion act. Mr. Coon says It la true that the Chinese are com­ ing Into the United States despite the efforts of the customs department to keep them out. An examination he made of the State line. Mr. Coon says, shows that the opportunities for crossing the Mexican border Into California are many and with the force at tbo com­ mand of the department it will be Im­ possible to prevent all of them from en­ tering this country. When they have once reached San Diego unobserved It Is practically im­ possible to prove when or how they came In. Commenting upon charges that tho Scott exclusion act Is a failure Mr. Coon says that this Is practically true as to its execution for the reason that uIh-ua Chinaman Is arrested he is enabled while In contlnement to nwko arrange­ ments with friendly countrymen to be returned a second time and to be con­ ducted to some other town. He Is also able to m> disguise himself as to make Identification, If caught, extremely dif­ ficult. The order of the Secretary of the Treasury prohibiting the transfer of Chinamen in transit In tho harbor of San Fraucisco was a most fortunate one and will check the traffic for a time. But some other method.Mr. Coon is con­ fident, will be found by which to come Into the United Stales. Mr. Coon sug­ gests treaty negotiations with tho Brit­ ish government and Mexico looking to the exclusion of the Chinese. and snvs< Ch I nese-ex elusion legislation will be very simple. Without such treaties tho ex­ clusion of Chinese by peaceful means Is an undertaking of great magnitude ow­ ing to the practical impossibility of po­ licing the thousands of miles of bound-j ary Hue. . The Morrow and other bills, Mr. Coon declares, are defective in that they pro­ vide for the return of the Chinamen to the country whence they came. Even the children laugh when told of this law, for they know that the Chinaman returned to Mexico will be eating his breakfast in tbo United States the next Thk American Society of Mechanical Engineers, In session at Cincinnati, adopted a resolution favoring tlw extabmentof a standard test for locomotive*.

Loxdon cable: The government has been.beaten in the House Of Com­ mons by a vptn of 94 to 68 on a motion to.adjourn. The measure before the House wm the Irish agricultural laborers' bill, which prwposea the use of the church surplus to assist in the erection of laborers* cottages. Joseph Francis Fox, the member for lheTuilamore division of Kings county, •a nationalist, moved the second reading of the bill. Mr. Johnston, conservative member for South Belfast, moved the rejection of tho bill on the ground that the surplus wax not sufficient to cover tho charges of tho land bill and the laborers' bill. The Right Hon. David Plunkett ac-' cosed the I'M mellites of'trying to snatch a division. Bn said they had kaseioblAd lu full force nt a time when the bulk of the member* were absent. In order to get the bill mad the second tlmo. The "object of this was to destroy the lal-orer's claims lu the land bill. He reminded tho House that Mr. DHIon had protested against the appropriation of the church surplus In the land bill as being a pure­ ly Irish fund which ho wanted for edu­ cational purposes when home rule was obtained. .Yet here were the Parnelllte* proposing to devote the surplus to the building of laborers' homes. T. W. Russel), unionist, moved to adjourn. Ho said that not a single clause of the bill had beon explained. It was an attempt to stab the land bill In the back. Mr. Bal'our comments 1 on the silence of the Irish leaders ou the measure. Nobody seemed to think It neceaasry ’o explain the provisions of the hill. In view of this state of affairs > he would support the motion for an * adJo u ru­ nic hl Mr. Russell's motion to ad loom was lost—yeas, OS; nays, 94. Tho announce­ ment of tho-result was received with cheers by the Parnelllte*. • Mr. Parnell moved that the second reading be now put. The Speaker de­ clined to put the motion, the House de­ alring to continue the debate. Mr. Balfour charged tho ParnelHim with .Introducing the measure through a mere desire to 'embarrass the govern­ ment. The member who had moved the second reading of the bill and the member who had seconded the motion had taken no between them only ton minutes. Their conduct was unmistak­ able. They did not mean to obtain ad­ vantages for tho laborers, but to Injure the land bill. The conditions under which tho bill had boon debated would deprive any vote that the house might come to of all significance. Whatever was the decision the government would attach to it no Importance. [Parnelllte cheers [. The second reading of the bill agreed to without a division, amid prolonged Irish cheers.

[CMICAGO COMBXSPOVDXKCir.] Base-ball, as a money-making enter­ prise, has received a black eye. There is no denying it. The attenaaace at tbo game* of both tho League and Brother­ hood clubs in tho cities of both the Eaat and West b»s been discouragingly small. Tbo attendance at both tbe League and Brotherhood games combined is in numbeis far short of that which crowded tbo League grounds a'one during tbe Mev games of last year. This thing cannot go on forever. Salaries nnd traveling expenses, which in a professional club of the first-class nro something en­ ormous, have to be met. 'Either tbe Loegue or the Brotherhood is des­ tined to go to the wall. The former is richer both in purne and experience ; tbe latter ia poor in both. As both persist in declaring it a wsr to the knife, the reader ia left free to indulge his own vaticinations as to Ute final result of tho fight. President Spalding, of tbe Chicago League Club, being interviewed at to the outlook for tbe national game, said: "There will be no compromise—no change ot schedule, no change of -circuit iu tbe National League. Tbeeigbt clubs that now represent the old orgenizat on are}a this fight to tbe finish. It is not a question ot one month, one season, or one year; it is a question that involves tho entire future of tbe national game. The Piitsbura Club will n -isb tbe sea­ son. at least so I am assured by tbe di­ rectors and stockholders. Tbe uleveland -Club will <lo tbs same, and os for New York it is in as solid financial con­ dition as Chicago. It matters not to the League whether it plats to empty benebee or noj. For tbe time being, tbo interest in base-ball is deadband no organise.ion is drawing a cent. Tuis condition of affairs willoontinue until one orthcutbar of tho two organirations now fighting ior supremacy goes to tbo wall. From this time out it will simply bo n case of cog ent dog, and the dog with bulldog touiloucion Will live tbo longest. Money will be necessary in plenty io carry on tbo tight, aud tbe Lengtfe is prepared to go into its pocket whenever necessary. It wilt never miss » pay-day, nor will its ball-players have to clamor at any time for wbat is dan them. ) hi Plajeis' League is no long­ er tbe brotherhood. It is an organization of speculator* from Wall street, who, back of one hundred ball-pl-yers. are making an effort to win some money from tbe game. Tbe National League ia not a speculative body; its backers are con­ serve ire business men. who Dever no out on flyers. Time will tell whether futures will win against a straight-out policy of honesty. The fight ia not between the Biotherbood aud tbe National League. It is between tho National agreement clubs, comprising upward of 3,01)0 play­ ers. and the speculator* back of tbo one hundred revolting member* of tho erst­ while Brotherhood of Base-ball Players." “J6huny Ward claims that the league policy ik to rule or ruin,*' said the inter­ viewer. “That is not true. It belies all our fo.mer conduct. We made b.isa-ball and we would be tho last to see it go down. We fought all the hard batl.es during the early struggles and no one rogiets tho present trouble more than we. When we found in 1877 that l gang of players ia Lquviriile was selling Ramos it was a blow that shook the National League game to.its foundations. Our club lost $7,(MIO (hut season, and there was a time when Mr. Hrlbert and myself were on paper iu tho bank which would hive wiped me oat entirely had I Ixfbn called upon to pay.

The following incident In the career of Jimmy Galvin, the well-known pitcher, ia related by the Chicago Tribunt: Some year* ago Galvin played in a semi-professional club in St. Louis, his home. He would iavarinblv take off his shoes and pitch in bi* stocking feet and do other things which distinguished him from other plarers. One afternoon ho was pitching when tbe game w«s close. In tbo lost half of tbe ninth inning Gal*. Tin’s team needed oue run to tie nnd two to win. There were two men out, men on second and third, and Jim at the bat. Ho cot a ball to his liking and landing on it square lifted it to extreme center. It looked good for a home run nnd the crowd rose to its feat and cheered. The centuflelder, however, after a long run, turned and piillod the ball down xitb one hand. Galvin do sooner saw this than, cutting brat base, he started across tbe diamond after tbo fielder with blood in his eye. Tbe luckless fielder »aw him coming, and knowing his peculiarity watted ior no ar­ gument. Clearing t he fen ce with a bo und bo s.aried across the country, carrying the ball his team bad won. He soon dis­ tanced bis pursuer and walked back to the > ity in bis uniform. It was a long time before Galvin would forgive him. BASK-BALL NO EMS.

This “Mrs.* Drane” must be the servant who had run away with his Bessie’s property! What a complication! She believed tbe rascally tramp to be rich; be be-' lieved her to be the possessor of thir­ teen millions; they had married. What an awakening for each! This discovery, however, had to be verified, and the dishonest young woman who had brought Bessie Harland so much trouble must be punished for it. Lawrence felt that ho must move with exceeding caution. Be turned, hardly certain as to what course he should take, when the young woman, blushing fitful­ ly and with quivering voice, said: ' “My husband’s name ain’t Drane at "You remember mo, don’t you?" said the girl, before Dm no could open his mouth. "I’m Nellie Blake, or I was be­ fore you married me to Mr. Drane, last Tuesday.” She simpered in a-most distressing way and looked up at Drane. He felt his hair stirring at tho roots, for ho saw now that lunacy was tho only explana­ tion of tho girl’s conduct. “I ought to explain—’’ he began. . But tbo minister stopped him with a wave of tbe hand. "No explanation is required, Mr. Drane," said ho. "I remember you per­ fectly, and I do trust that nothing has happened in this short space to mar the happiness which I sincerely wished you truly married to him right in this town, when I made you one." “But my dear Kir—” cried Drane, in and I can prove it.

This blunt request came pretty near leaving a fainting woman on Mr. Drone’s hands. Her blushes left her face and She oollapoed into tho chair like a limp rag. Lawrence hastened to thrust vari­ ous bottles of liquids that be saw on a mantel into her hands, and be fanned her vigorously with bis hat. It waa some time before she recovered sufficiently to accuse him of desiring to play some*trick upon her. He protested that such was not his intention and urged her to be calm, promising to go at once to tho clergyman’s if she would write the desired address. This she finally did and then retired to dress for the street. While ho was waiting Lawrence wondered that she had not made particular inquiries about her husband, and his conclusion was that she cardit nothing’for him. her only de-, sire being to possess his supposed irealtb. When at last they -tartod down-stairs, the young woman thrust her hand into his arm and loaned, heavily upon him, saying: "I am so upset by this." Lawrence gallantly undertook tho burden, and as they passed through tho office he saw his acquaintance, Jimmy, tho reporter, watching him narrowly. Two policemen were there, too, and as he passed them he heard ono of them “He does look like- a confounded lunaHe, for a fact." CHAPTER X. At all seasonable hours the streets of New Haven are full of pretty girls. They are merry girls, too. who like to laugh when there’s any thing funny in sight. Drane, with tho bogus Mrs. J Drano upon his arjn, passed Home thouJ sands of them, or at least he could have sworn that he did, and they all looked iout of the corners of their eyes, and ; grinned with tho corners of their ! mouths. . It Is harrowing to bo the object of this kind of attention. It suggests tho possibility of a practical joker's placard : on one’s bock, or a black mark along। side one’s nose. Drano investigated the ^subject as well as he could by feeling stealthily up and down his back, and using his handkerchief with great vigor. But'for tho life of him ho couldn’t nnd any thing calculated to create so much innocent amusement. "I suppose I look funny without my mustache,” be’thought, "but bang mo if I should expect people to notice it who never saw me before." Then he glanced down upon his com­ panion, and beheld upon her coun­ tenance an expression which at once ex■ plained the situation. Sho looked as no woman ever does except when she’s either sea sick or in love. A honeymoon smile of the most aggravated typo transformed her rather comely face into tho familiar, mask of ImlMwility; and not even the blank stars with which be met her upturned eyes, moved her to modify a single detail of her ridiculous grimace. * "She must be crazy, too,” he thought, with a shudder; unconsciously mold­ ing the phrase of his idea to fit tho pop­ ular judgment regarding his own mental condition. “Poor girl; her disappclntmcnt-has turned her brain." She steered him into a side street; and just aslbe waa trying to think of a delicate way in which be could uppo her to discontinue Rooking at him in'that disquieting fashion, she paused before a “This ta the minister’s bousa, the Bev Mr. Knbwles. th© man wbb married oa; you know."

Look at her noy.” . Nellie hod fallen upon a sofa and wm sobbing with industrious vigor. "You hav© brought tears to her ©yes.” Noll!© pretended to wring out her handker­ chief. “She might faint with the disap­ pointment at your very feet!” Nellie began to faint with a rigid de­ termination which alarmed Drane, and called forth more remonstrances from the kind-hearted old man. Together they made her comfortable upon the sofa and fanned her till there was a small cyclone iu tho study. When she was quiet Drane saw his opportunity, and,;in a voice as calm as ho could make it. he said: “My dear sir, yon arc wholly mistaken in this matter. 1 am not tho man who married this young woman, and I have np^er hod tho pleasure of seeing either her or yourself before to-day." "Do you mean to say that she doesn’t know her own husband?" asked the reverend gentleman, with great sur­ prise. “This is preposterous." “She knows perfectly well that I am not her husband,'*' said Drane. “For some purpose of her own she has lured me here, and has claimed me before you,-and you have protended to recog­ nize me. But for the honesty that I read in your face, air, I should bo tempted to say that this wr? all a great conspiracy to entrap me." “Young man," said Rev. Mr. Knowles, with deep severity, “I never forget a face. I know you by your necktie!" It was tho one article of conspicuous apparel which ho had retained since the first exchange with the tramp in th© Turkish bath. Ho cursed it in his souIj •— 7 "But look at me more closely; look into my face!” he exclaimed. Rev. Mr. Knowles pulled a pair of spectacles down from his forehead and approached Drane with a grim de­ termination to make sure of him writ­ ten all over his usually benign coun­ tenance. Drone lifted up bis bead and looked straight at the glittering gold rims of the glasses. Ho felt certain that he should not fail of an acquittal if once ho was properly inspected. But Rev. Mr. Knowles made an error which is alarmingly common in cases whore personal identity ia at issue. He fixed his gaze rigidly on the ono thing which had previously misled him—tho necktie—aud to all Intents and pur­ poses his scrutiny went no further. And oh, how ho did identify that necktie. How ho reached in and pulled its secret 'out! How dead certain, how immovably, unutterably positive he 'was, when ho [ raised his eyes from it and pushed up . his glasses again, that that was tbe ver­ itable necktie with which ho had for­ ever united the fat© of Miss Nelli© Blake. Then he glanced at Drone’s face with his unassisted eyes; saw i simply a physiognomy with the cus1 ternary number of features on it, and 1 was convinced. “I was not mistaken,” said he, “and I am at a lorn to understand your con­ duct." It takes a really good man to be flxpd In error; but doubt Is the eternal por­ tion of the unregenerate. Tho Rev. Mr. Knowles qras more certain that he had married Drone, than Drone was that be hadn't. “Why,’*'iontinued Mr. Knowles, “if It was ydur intention to cast thia woman off did you bring her here where your Iniquity waa almost certain to trans­ pire?" •Ji didn’t bring her here,” said Drano, dospondingly, "she brought me.” "So I supposed; so I supposed, young man.” and the Rev. Mr. Knowles frowned in great disapprobation, “but now that you are here let mo c-xbort yoi^to do your whole duty. Vitae reason yiftiave for denying your wife J do not Enow. Have yt>u any thing to say against her character?" “Heaven forbid,” said Drane, hastily. "That is a subject on which I never say any thing." . sfYou have the instincts of a gentle■Bt," tha old clergyman said, slowly. “I noticed that when you Were here btr “I yield the gentleman froaa Pennsyl­ vania fifteen minutes of my time." fore; especially then, I may add,*for your behavior to-day has left much to bo desired.’’ "I am greatly indebted to tbe abomin­ able tramp who personated me on that occasion,” exclaimed Drane. with bitter emphasis, “and I regret that his repu­ tation should suffer during my tempo­ rary use of my own name." "Come, come," said the genial pastor, cheerfully; "let’s have no more hard words. Come. Nellie, give your hand to your husband once more in my presence, and start anew on what 1 trust will be a happy life together." Nellie rose with great alacrity and ad­ vanced to Drane, who stood in sullen dismay, wondering what the woman's ob­ ject was and how far she would 'allow tho ridiculous game to proceed. Meanwhile Rev. Mr. Knowles bad shifted bisspectacles from hi, f.re Lead to the end of his nose, and be beamed more benignly over them than under them if possible. "I am an old man,”said ho, “and you taust pardon my interference in the affairs of tbe young, fam not yet clear as to what has brought you to me for a second time; but let us say it is Provl•dence-2-" and he glanced reverently up.ward, the ono direction in which the good man’s sight had never failed him. “I entreat you. my son, be a man." be continued, “and leave this strange and evil course for tho better way.” Drane was torn by many conflicting emotions. Tho old clergyman's manner was so kind that Drano could have kissed, his venerable hand, and his error was so annoying that Drano longed to break his venerable neck. "My dear —” he waa going to say "my dear sir." but Mr. Knowles let him get no further than tho adjective. He spread his hands over the pair, in tho familiar attitude, and Nellie, taking tho hint, fell upon Drane's neck. His utter inability to struggle against cir­ cumstances led him absolutely to tears; and tho Rev. Mr. Knowles, taking out a large handkerchief, -cried softly in unison. They were all so much occupied that they did not hoar tho door-boll, nor bad their attitudes changed by a hair'sbroadth when tho door opened and Mrs. Bessie Harland, of Buffalo, N. Y., walked in. Drane saw her out of tho corners of his eyes, and he tried hastily to shako Nollio’a arms from around his neck, but they were clasped bard and fast, and nothing could loosen them. Bessie gave a .little nigh which waa al­ most a sob, and sank upon tho sofa. There were first-rate prospects of ©gen­ uine faint now, and Drane’s agony was proportionately increased. At the sound of her 1st© mistress’ sob, Nellie turned her head, and when she Saw who had entered her dismay was so plainly written on her face that even the faint-sighted old pastor saw it He misinterpreted It, of course, and cast a look of disapproval upon Bessie. "Young woman.” said he, "are you tbe unhappy cause of difference between these two?" But Bessie paid little attention to his words. She rose unsteadily from the sofa, threw up her bead with a pitiful little attempt at dignity and said: “Mr. Drane, I came to this city be­ cause 1 believed that you were ill and in trouble, and I hoped to help you as you once helped me. A young man, whom 1 believe to be a representative of tho press, directed me to this house. That explains my presence; but, of course, I can stay no longer. I must say good­ bye.” “There, sir; didn’t I tell you your name was Drane!” exclaimed Rev. Mr. Knowles, who had been fairly bursting with a desire to say it since Bessie's first word had been uttered. “Bessie—Mrs. Harland!” cried Drano, choking with love, rage and other emo­ tions which afflict tho young, “I swoor to you that this Is all a hideous mistake. I have never seen this woman before to­ day. and I don't car© to sec her again till tbo day of judgment, on which oc­ casion may she escape her deserts! She was hanging round my neck for some insane purpose ot her own; aud this gentleman”—and Drane softened his voice and bowed to Mr. Knowles—“per­ sists that he married us " "Married!” cried Bessie, and she sank back again upon the sofa. "But ho didn’t, you know,” cried Drano, hastening toward her. “He’s near-sighted or something, aiid she real­ ly married my necktie—oh, give my word, I don’t know what I’m saying, but I—1— Bessie, I lovo yon, God knows, and every beat of my heart has been faithful to you since my e/fca first rested on your face. May—” “Sir!” cried Rev. Mr. Knowles, In a . voice of thunder. "This is more than I can permit. Will you make love to an­ other woman before your wife’s eyes, you young villain?" But thia rebuke fell unheeded, for Drane’s unexpected declaration bad proven too much for Bessie’s nerves al­ ready deeply shaken, andfkhc bad fallen into a faintness, as deep, to all appear­ ances, as death itself. Drano sprang forward to her side, and Rev. Mr. Knowles puttered along after him. Nbilie. too, was moved by tho sight of her former mistress’ pallid face, and aba bld fair to be of tnc.ro rral use than either of tho men.

Mr. Milla, of Texas, th© leader of his party, hurried down the aisle and shouted, *T object," and that ono objec­ tion prevented the “unanimous consent" which was^asked by Mr. RandalL The ex-speaker did not turn his head to look • st tho objector, nor appeal for consider­ ation at his bauds; but quietly sank into his scat, humiliated, but uncomplain­ ing. Tbe next speaker on the list for that day was Hon. William McKinley, ot Ohio.

Mestoi �Li. vicar Sr. Z OI earthly bUsse* Ui* greatest North Kaukauna, nil, MR. BAXTER'S DILEMMA HE Rev. Thomas Bax­ ter was a curate of the muscular, energetic - type, *bich, fortu­ nately for tho church, is turned out not unfrequcntly by our uni­ versities and public schools. He was a tog. broad-shouldered . coung man, wuo, uedsides distinguishing himself greatly Wth on the river and in th* cricket fiol<4’ had taken a very re_•pectable degree, for he was by no means afraid of hard work of any Jesc<ipt on. i Buch men often make capital parsous, and Tom was hardly less energetic in his parish work than be had been in very different spheres of action nt Eton and Oxford. But there wore* limiti to Mr. Baxter'" endurance; he liked on occa•ionol holiday, nnd this was tbe only noint upon which he and his vicar, tbv Rev. Septimus Straightway, were not en­ tirely sgreed. - Tbe Rev. Beptimue wav an honest mnn. and took a ar,»ere and gloomy view of tbe Eloasorcs of life He worked terribly hard i an East-end pniish. knew nothing and eased lesv about outdoor sports, or. in foot, about any form of amusement, and Cully expected his curates to follow unhedtotingiy in tbe extremelr narrow and •leap path up which ho led them. Hence <t came to pass that Mr. Straightway ex­ perienced considerable difficulty in End­ ing curates after Iris oan heart; tho yoang men wore continually leaving him Cor less arduous duties, nnd tbe vicar s opinion of human nature in gouernl, and of the younger generation of curates in particular, steadily grew worse. In Tbm Baxter, however, ho really thought he ‘possessed » treasure, and the danger of working a willing hor<e to death never so much aa entered into h;s bead. Poor Tom did bis very best to satisfy Mr. Straightway’* requirements, for he really respected tbo man and valued im­ mensely bis cood opinion, but. as has al­ ready been indicated, ho bould not help longing thnt iris sut erior would enter u littio more iuto bis own harmless liking lent family living, destined in th* futnr* for Tom and his bride. But the uncle was a stern nnd conooiantlous A«mJ*man. aud he was determined, before be definite­ ly agreed to give Tom tho vaokner—when it occurred—to ^ee what tbe young gen­ tleman wuh made of. And this wan why Baxter had been aont to help Mr. Straight, way in tbe East End, why he worked so hard in the pariah, i-nd why be Wan no desperately anxious to aland high in his viesr’s opinion. . Wh*n*Tom read th* letter his first im­ pulse, uncleric.il though it may appear, was to ns* strong language. But he re­ strained himself and fell to thinking over th* various means of t scaping hi" duties. Afresh nppeil to Mr. ntndgbtway be know to be hopeless. That worthy ascetic did not only look upon cricket as a friv­ olous waste of time, but he wm a strong advocate of tho celibacy of tho clergy. Moreover, by merely asking tho questiofi Tom might offend him, and thia he cer­ tainly could not afford to do under the circumstances. ■ There was nothing for it then but a pious fraud, and although Tom's cons-ienc* rebelled against the idea of de­ ceiving his vicar, who trusted him impiicitlr, ho could not make up his mind to disappoint Alice or to deny himself tho ploisuro of seeing her. Ho might, undar more favornblec rcuuistence*, have dined at her uncle's house in Bortman Square, but a* luck would have it bo had undertaken to conduct aa craning class on both nights of her stay in town. So ho wrote n very- affectionate answer, promising thnt nothing short of an earth­ quake should prevent him from appearing at Lota's, nnd ho at ouco set* to work to arrange n plot for the deception of Mr. Straightway. Tbo day before that, on. which ho had promised to meet his ii tended, Tom told his vicar that he was passing tho night very old Iriend who ba I just oome home from India, in hi* looms near Jer­ myn ftreet. This, it must be end, was perfectly true. i«nd, of com so, Mr. Straightway could offer no valid objec­ tion, as Baxter had done all his work for the day. J he next day. however, Tom slunk off to a telegraph office, nnd in guilty hsate dispatched a wire to the ef­ fect that he wax suffering from a severe attack of J unit ngo. but would, if possible, relura in the evening. By 11 o’cloak he was at Lord's. Th* mere sight of th* ground wm >o welcome to him ihat he detenain d to spend as much tirn* there ns he po-stbly could. He kn-w, of course, Lhat he wot Id 1» cer­ tain to meet any number of hi* ol'd friend*, nud that the whole proceodi g was extremely risk*, but lie consoled himself with tbe though^ that as Mr. Straightway rarely if ever went into so­ ciety of any aort. be was not at all likely to heir nuithing-about it Bo he en­ sconced himself in tho pavilion and awaited the beginning o.’ ths plav with pleasurable impatience.

Efforts, have i»een and are still beiirg made to arrive at satisfactory arnmgemauts with the Indian owners whereby this country can be thrown open to settlement. ' The adventurous raids rondo' into Oklahoma will always be interesting history, and a correct and accurate ac­ count of these forcible - raids at this time will prove of interest, as they were all made across the Cherokee Strip, the preaent land in dispute. F. K. Albright, of Caldwell, Kan., writing to the Chicago Times, gives an interesting history of the various raids. Back iu the *70*. ho says, whnn good Government land was still to be found in large lots, Oklahoma began to at­ tract attention and be coveted by those who had visited it, because of its great richness and splendid location. It was in 1879 David L. Payne, an old aoldier and scont, bettor known under the title of the “Cimarron Scout," be­ gan to make sjieeche* on the Oklahoma question ut Wichita, Kan. Payne had been doorkeeper at the. National House of Represenfatires and had there learn­ ed that the Indian* had no clear title « to the land known as Oklahoma, and returning to the West inflamed with tho ‘ spirit of the adventurer had begun his lifowork. C. C. Carpenter started to boom the opening of Oklalioraa several years be­ fore Captain Payne formed his Wichita cotonv. He hail headquarters at Cof­ fey viHe, Kan., and from there issued circulars, setting a day in 1879 for a grand raid, and telling of the beauty of location and fertility of soil in the Oklahoma country. These circulars created great excite­ ment in parts of Kansas, Texas, Mis­ souri, and Texas. Among those who received and read one of these Carpenter circulars was Harry Hill, then a young man stopping at Fort Worth, Tex. ' Hill is a Ken­ tuckian by birth and a natural-born trader and adventurer. After reading this circular issued by Carpenter he conceived the idea of joining him with a Texas colony, and gathering a crowd of fifteen together, he telegraphed his wife at St. Louis that if she wished to . see him again soon, to come to Fort "Worth at once. As soon as steam could bring her Mrs. Hill joined her husband aud in­ sisted on accompanying him on his many adveuturea with soldiers and Indian scouts they landed near the site of Oklahoma City aud be­ gan to bbuild a town in a jack oak for­ est, calling the place Ewing Citv, after General Tam Ewing. It rained inces­ santly, and. Payne, being taken sick, was piloted by Hill to the ahi cabins which he had himself used the year be­ fore. Here the rations gave out and the raiders were in distress.

He ran down to the door, made a spring and a twist, and for about two seconds was seen on top of the trap. Then he jumped to the fat man's right shoulder. As ho did so there was a yell and a falling back of the crowd, the dogs rushed forward, and next instant, dogs, fat man, and were all in a hasp in the gutter.

Tbe town of Ainsworth, aa shown' on tbe maps, ia aomething of the past. It waa located on the banka of tbe Snake river, whore the Northern Pacific rail­ road croaae* the same. The river ia spanned with> magnificent steel bridge nearly 8,000 feet long and which coat tl^O.OOO. It waa during the construc­ tion of this large bridge that Ains­ worth was in it* zenith, it, at .that time, contained a population of 1,900; that waa ddring the years of 1888 and 1884. Today but two families re­ main, and these are the families of tbe two bridge*watchmen. The buildings have all been torn down and moved •away, moat of them coming to Pasco; some have been taken out on ranches and rebuilt, and some have been used for firewood. Here is an inatance show­ ing what a rich and powerful corpotation can do; build cities and ruin them at will. During the conati action of tbe road -and building of this bridge, tbe express agent waa relieved of >18,000 sent here by tbe Northern Pacific company to pay employees. The agen t was arrest ■ •ed, bat nd case was ever made out of it* and be was released, but the comjj>any made up its mind that the agent waa not alone in the matter, as suspi­ cion rested on a few prominent men of Ainsworth, bat no proof could be made against the parties sufficient to convict rbezn, and the company forthwith sent out its decree that Ainsworth had seen its days of usefallness to them, and withdrew its patronage from there and platted Pasco and made its headqaart* ers and base of operation, and now tho village of Ainsworth exists in name <only. The Colombia 18 also spanned ■by a bridge here at Pasco of about the •same length; it is constructed of wood and iron nnd cost over >300,000.

Tbe loss in horses was not very heavy this last winter, but tbe rattle i on nd-up will be rather small, as some men have none left and will not go into the busincis again, and hence tbe cowboy’s occupation has gone to a certain extent. The stench from the dead cattle that lie strewn all over tills country is terrible at present, but it is not so bad as it has bern and I tliiuk it will soon abate entirely. Thu weather is very hot for this time of the year. Thethreniometer, for the past two weeks has registered from 90 io 95 degiecs in tbo shade; what it will Vo in July and August we cannot tell, as we expect tu climb into the moun­ tains in a short time and seek a higher altitude. I have been watching the ranchmen plowing, planting and growing their crops. Thev told me last winter that tbe heavy snow fall, with what rain they would get during the winter, would enable them tu make a good crop. That theory will not work. Now, they say, if we only had irrigation we <onld make a success of farming, but so far farming here has been a dismal failure. Noil* there has been a bill passed in the state legislature, known a* tbe Wright irrigation bill, authoriz­ ing the people to form irrigating dis­ tricts and issue bonds tj> contract ditches. They have made k prelimin-, tory survey on a ditch 21 miles long, es­ timated to cover about 30.000 acres. They start some seven or eight miles from here, on the Suake river, and take a meandering course and empty it isto the Columbia. They liave to raise it 110. with powerful pumps, into tbe -ditch, which I think will prove a failsire. as I think that it will be to expeusive and uncertain.

DOES ADVERTISING PAY? ABOUT UNJUST TAXATION. Editor News: How is this? Mr. John Gutchess, who, every y»>ar, finds fault with his assessment that it is too high, recent­ ly sent word to Joseph Haffner, whose farm Is assesstKi at the same amount that Mr. Gutchess' farm Is assessed at. that that he would exchange farms With Mr. Haffner for $1,000, the difference'between the two farms: Mr. H. agreed to pay Mr. G. this amount, and Mr. G. stated that as soon as he got his corn planted he would be ready to make the necessary papers. Mr. H. made all arrangements to fulfil his part of the verbal contract and waited patiently until Mr. G. had his corn planted, when he expected to make out the papers. Now Mr. G. refuses to exchange, which goes to show that Mr. G. thinks that there Is more than $1,000 difference between the two farms which are assessed the same. The conclusion is that Mr. G.'s fault find­ ing is done for the purpose of keeping his assessment down and not because he t hinks he is aggrieved by unjust tax­ ation. Tax Payer. WHY? R. E.

Johnson waa beginning to real­ ize that tho new-comers wero tho Kan­ sas City relief expedition, nnd that his own usefulness and opportunities wore nearly over. He was meditating a quiet and inoffensive exit when ho chanced to catch Nellie’s eye, and it riveted him to tho spot. She was looking at him with a real tenderness of expres­ sion, and a certain admiration, too. In­ deed, Johnson in Drane’s clothes was worth looking at. Ho had an intelliCt and not uncomely visage, which boon much improved of late by tho effects of more food and loss drink. And Nellie looked at him, thinking of tho words which had Joined their hands; and she grew quite pale, but not with fear or regret. Bessie was pale, too, for sho felt a very painful interest in tbo scene. Sho knew that tbo strange mon must include thoeo who had known Drane in the West, and she took Johnson to bo a distin­ guished representative of tho family, whoso words would bo a full explana­ tion of Drone's mental condition. She tried to attract his attention; to call him to her side, and ask him whether it was true that his unfortunate kins­ man was unbalanced. Mr. Sanford Drano, tho genuine, was the first to break tbo silence which had fallen upon tho party. “I beg your pardon," said ho to Rev. Mr. Knowles, “but I really do not soo why wo havo all invaded your house. Has this unhappy young man—" point­ ing to Lawrence—"had any dealings with you during his recent wanderings? I should tell you that .1 am his undo, and that I have come to tako him home with me, where I trust that rest and medical treatment will restore him to tbo full command of bis faculties." "And is he, then, deranged?" asked Mr. Knowles. "Ah! that explains much which had been dark to me. I fear that I have dono serious wrong. I should have made more careful inquiries be­ fore I married him to this young lady." "Married?" cried. Uncle Sanford, aghast. “Oh, Lawrence, I did not think your wretched fate would havo led you to thia."

Rev. Mr. Knowles held up his hands in horror. "Young woman," said he, "the ob­ liquity of your moral vision is really shocking. Did you think that stolen clothes could make you good?” "Yes. air, I did,” replied Nellie, firm­ ly, "and what’a more, I wm right; they have. Since I’ve worn them I haven’t had an envious or wicked thought in my mind, except when this man dis­ covered me and I naw the prospect of big cuffs and a cap again. I tell you that if I'd had another week in Mrs. Harland's dresses not: even that tempta­ tion woald have been strong enough to make mo do wrong." "You have discovered a great moral principle." said Johnson. “1 too, stole a chance to begin a better life, and, I trust, if Mr. Drano doesn't take, this suit away from mo, that I may yot reform entirely before It wears out.

On one occa­ sion we had the good fortune to secure as an attraction that eccentric humor­ ist, Artemus Ward. We met him on his arrival and did all that was proper in the reception of a distinguished Seat. Tho evening came on for the 'tore, and the lecture was delivered. After its delivery A. Ward was our guest. We took care of him. Before doing so. however, we counted up the receipts of the house. Mr. Ward (or Browne) at once became magnanimous. Our terms with him were that he was to get one-half of the receipts and the poor one-half. Wnen the proceeds wore counted out Mr. Ward said, in his droll way: "Let the poor have theirs; and yon, gentlemen, must allow me to spend my half in your midst. I insist upon your accepting my hospitality until the last cent of my half of the proceeds of to-night’s lecture lias been squandered. Let us begin at once." The not proceeds amounted to $7.35.

Snubbed by Oscar. The Brooklyn Eagle publishes a let­ ter from the daughter of Sir Morell Mackenzie, which contains this anec­ dote of Oscar Wilde: If one is observant there are many things <n society here in London to in­ terest and amuse. I heard the other day of au incident which affords a capi­ tal illustration of Mr. Oscar Wilde's readiness in snubbing on overfamiliar acquaintance, and of tho Hang froid with which he extricated himself from a situation which to some would bare been extremely awkward. At one of those society crushes, where a celebrity is eagerly aocoRtetl by nnmberlcBs perrons whom he doesn’t recol­ lect ever having Keen before, that dis­ ciple of art was chatting with one ot those ladies, so common in society, whose bettor halves are vague nonen­ tities usually known as Mrs. A’» hus­ band. On a sudden up comes a small man, and, slapping Mr. Wilde affec­ tionately on the back, exclaims: “Holloa, Oscar; d’you know, every time I see you, you get fatter and fatter.” “I don’t know who you are." returned tho hero of oistheticism, looking down from his advantage of seraral inchaa, "but every time I see you, you gel ruder and ruder.” Needless to say, Ahe too-frisadly ac­ quaintance vanished abashed into the crowd, from among which he had made An appearance brief as the proverbial angels' visits. “Can you tell me,” asked Oacar .turn­ ing to hia friend, "who is that dreadful little cad?"

On his return from his walk Rabelab was arraatedby tbe excited village au­ thorities, who conducted him to Paris in triumph, expecting a great reward for their astuteness. When they appeared in court with their victim, he was received with xhontaof laughter and applause for his successful trick, which had brought him home free of .eo.itThomson, the acted traveller, stated before the Academy of Sciences in Paris that he made his way thro:igh tho country of several tribes in Africa by meaps of only a false tooth hnd n box of effervescing salt*, with which he worked miracles to aw e the savage*. In a history of the Fleming family it is stated that Houston FJchung being taken prisoner by the British after tho battle of Brandywine escaped, passing in full sight through.two regiments at night, di-guised os a glioat u ith a bloody face. These old anecdotes are curiously suggestivu of the change in general in­ telligence since those days.

It is only probably in Africa that such devices would now sueceeil.

They begin the classes in some of the public schools nowadays in the rudi­ ments of civil government at a very early age; and it seems that tbe young people get on the whole a pretty cor­ rect idea of the way we are governed. A teacher, who, by die way, ia rather fond of English things, was oraly in­ structing a class the ocher day in the foundations of political science. She hod given her young pupils a very in­ teresting lecture about tbe British sys­ tem of government; and then she asked the boy at the head of the class: "And now, Johnnie, what are the men called who govern or rule over us in this country?” • "Kings!” said Johnnie, promptly. "Ob, no. Tell me, the next one, by whom wo are governed?’’ "Queens!" "No! Next boy.” "Jacks!” said the next boy. And he was not promoted to the head of the class. .

Need I say that I “jumped,” and soon was stand­ ing. all u n a • f ba-ihed, a tiny, white-robed fig­ ure, before good, kind h'olomon. our colored serv­ ing-man, eager to see what he could possibly have brought me from the woods on this beautiful, bright birthdav of mine. He once had gotten me a big, round­ eyed owl that winked and blinked cunoualy, and gulped down chunks of raw meat and fish, and caught and ate rats and mice and other small game; hut one unhappy day he alar/ caught aud killed my wee kitten, which had not got its eyes open yet. and as that was an unforgivable crime he was bummarily banished, in dire disgrace, to his native forests, and never heard from more. Another time Solomon had brought me a pet lizard—with lovely glisten­ ing scales!—which he had tamed for me. He often brought mamma brill­ iant many-hued flowers from the cool depths of the thick woods, which white ladies were afraid to venture into be­ cause of the poisonous snakes and troublesome insects with which they were infested. He hnd also from time to time made valuable additions to papa’s herbarium of rare plant*, which he alone knew where to find. But what could he now have brought to me7 “Something for little missy,’’ he said, exposing two rows of even,-white teeth ns he smiled. And then he held out his right hand, over which a white cloth was loosely wrapped. Something moved underneath it. and I fancied 1 heard a faint chirp or twit­ ter. to I was not much astonished when, on removing it, he showed me two bright-green parrots. 1 named them Tommy and Lizzie, and they flourished finely and grew apace. Pretty soon papa said that we must begin to teach them. But Lizzie wouldn't take an educa­ tion. She was an incorrigible cross­ patch, and not only refused to try to talk herself but did all in her power to hinder Tommy, She squawked, aud squawked, or else chattered at him, just as if the were scolding him. He was n gentle, affectionate, and very teachable little fellow; but ho had a hard time learning to talk, for it made Lizzie so mad to have him try that she would fly nt him and tear out his feathers till ho was a iorry-lookiog sight. We had another large parrot named The Queen, which belonged to our house-keeper, Mrs.-Dawson. She had a variety of colors in her plumage and was very accomplished, for she was an old bird’ and had been accumulating knowledge for many years. She evi­ dently looked down on the little new­ comers, and when Lizzie squawked would cry: “Hush! hush! you’ll wake the baby," although there wasn't Buy child in the house btji-me; but when Tommy tried to practice his lesson she always said, fiercely: “Stop that right off!" Which so frightened him that he would cower into a little round, green puff-ball, and not try again for quite a while. So we began to fear that Tommy never would get an education, but just grow up an ignorant, worthless parrot, unable either to talk or to sing. But he was quite a smart little bird, after all, ms he proved to us one morn­ ing. He was so tame and gentle that we let his w ings grow, as there was no danger of his wanting to fly away and leave ns: but Lizzie’s wings were kept well clipped, for she was of a restless, discontented disposition and a great rover, and if able to fly might have tempted Tommy away. Well, where do.you think we found him one morning when we came out from breakfast? Sitting on the win­ dow-sill, across a very wide stair-well over the broad stairs that led into the back yard. There Lizzie could not possible reach him. so there he sat and practiced the litth? song we had been trying to teach him. “Tommy — Tommy — Tommy set— Tommy set—Tommy," etc. The Queen always went to meals with us. consequently she was as much surprised to sec him there as we were. But when site saw that he really meant business, she gracefully yielded and let him alone in his pursuit of knowl­ edge. So every little while he retreat­ ed to his s|udy for uractice, till, after several days' effort, he mastered the whole, and could sing, clearly, distinct Ir. and in very good time; ' - Tominv, art ttei kff.te on.

Lizzie sim­ ply submitted to the inevitable: but I think khat beneath her feathers she was rather proud of taring so learned a bird fur her mate.

It is a matter of history that some of the finest poetry ever written has had a narrow escape from the “limbo of things lost on earth." One of the greatest poets that ever lived came within an ace of being the "mute, in­ glorious Milton," for bin almost divine epic found little favor with tho book­ sellers of his day, and was finally sold for about the sum which a first-class ’ peel of the present day would expect for a jx>em of forty or fifty lines. In that day, as in ours, every leading publishing bouse “kept a critic," on whose fiat the fate of an author’s manu­ script depended, and then, as now, the “readers’’ of such establLhmenta some­ times made terrible mistakes. It is our deliberate opinion that had the “Paradise Lost" bean submitted to certain regularly employed critics of the present time instead of to the Grubb street gentlemen of the seven­ teenth century, it would have been pronounced, as of yore, a “dull and tedious production/ Byron, as we all know, was mercilessly snubbed by the literary Jupiter of the Edinburgh Eevieiv. and Rev. Charles Wolfe's ex­ quisite “Ode on the Burial of Sir John Moore" was so scornfully rejected by a leading periodical of the time that the author, in sending it to a provincial Irish newspaper, timidly withheld his name lest lie should be cauterized by the press. But the public, a better critic than any cynic in foolscap uni­ form turned up with ink. unexpectedly franked him for immortality. There is an enormous amount of humbug in modern criticism—quite as much as in the criticism of days gone by.

"X WITH GABRIEL »r DAVID'A. CERT18. It was lung ago, before tbe mail service waa brought anywhere near ite present perfection,” said the. quiet.look­ ing man with whom I was riding, on a WBBtera train, “that I waa putin charge of one of the first traveling offices. My — «oar ran from Cleveland to Chicago and lisati to sort, not only tbe entire Cleve­ land mail from the West, but some­ times M many as a half-a-dozen large - bag* full of mail from Buffalo and other eastern points. The ’department- was working hard to save time iu delivery, and we were making the first great ■tops in that direction. I hadi-’t an en­ tire car to myself. In those days the traveling offices were little- cubby-holes taking up about one-third of a second class car. The forward end of the car was used a« a smoker, and a narrow passage alongside my room, led from the smoking room to the rear door. I had no asristaut aud used to lock my door on leaving Cleveland, and work tike a beaver until I reached Chicago, seldom completing the night’s wurk till we were fairly inside the limits of tbc latter city. It was bard work but I soon got used to it, and was fairly well contented with the place. It not seem like a particularly dan­ gerous post, and no such precaution was taken in those days to guard against )HM>sible attempts at robbing the mails, aa is now taken. I had a Strong door secured by a strong lock, aud I had a heavy revolver that 1 kept lying on the table, but beyond that no special arrangement was made to protect me or the mail. It waa not con­ sidered possible that I would be attack­ ed on a regular passenger train. Ono adventure that I had, however, served to quicken tbc apprehension of the Department, and soon after, I believes • rule wa* established that no post-office car should be run without two or more men in the office. ' As I said, my door was secured by a heavy lock. It was a snap-lock and opened with a large and peculiar key from tbe outside, while on the inside these was no key-hole, and no key to be used, but the pressure of a concealed spring pulled the bolt open. You have seen similar locks on office gates in counting-rooms very often. They are common enough now, and almost everybody knows the secret of opening them, but they were new then and very pnzziibg to the average man. I gave no special thought to it after I bad been shown the trick, but as it happened that lock saved my life. My habit was, ou entering my office, to put the key in my pocket, and then to shut the door aud try it from the in­ side. One night, by some strange freak of absent-miudedncBs, I forgot a part of thi v proceeding and left the key on the outside. I slammed the door and tried it, and finding it locked went on with my work, entirely nnainscions of the fact that any one could enter from the outside by turning the key that wim in the lock. Presently some one did enter. It was a very stormy night, and as it Imp pened only one passenger was iu the "smoker.” What he did I learned after­ wards. My first intimation of any­ thing wrong came from seeing this pas­ senger enter my room with a key in his hand. "I shall have to report you to tbe de­ partment for this,” lie said, sternly, holding up the key. “I am an inspec­ tor, aud have caught you in a flagrant niece of carelessness on my first trip.” “Ali right,” I said, bitterly. I recog­ nized my fault In an instance, aud know it was likely to coat me mv place. It did not occur <’.• me at the moment to doubt his word, for he spoke in a matter-of-fait way that carried con­ viction. His next movement, however, undeceived me. for, stepping quietly toward me ho made a grab fo/my re­ I’ll tell “You’re fooliah.” I Mid, still trying to keep cool, tbough I was horribly frightened. "If vou kill me you can’t make too do any thing afterwards, and I don’t need the key* and you do. I can open any door without a key. Shall I show you?” . "Well, yea,” he said, rather doubt­ fully,-“but how can you do it?” "Try thia one,” I said. “You can’t open thia door although you have the key, but I can go right out through it and come back again. Thon you can kill me if you want to, though I’d rather you wouldn’t. Try the door for yourself.” He did so and not understanding the lock, couldn't open it. “Youcan’topen it, either,” he said, standing to one side. "Oh, yes I can,” I replied, and put* ting my hand on the lock I pressed the soring without letting him see how it was done. Pulling the door open vio­ lently, I struck him with it, hard enough to force him backward, and jumped through just iu time to dodge a ballet that he fired at me. I pulled the door to after me and he waa locked in. He fired a second shot through the door, but that missed me,' too. and I rushed for the platform to find the brakeman. He wasn't there, and I seized the bell rope. That was cut. I ruabed to the forward end of the car - and the door there was locked.I broke through the winbow and climbed out to the engine, and had the train stopped quickly. The engineer and I went back, and as .we were chopping at the door to get into my room we heard another shot When we got in we found the unfortunate man dead. He had shot himself, The brakeman waa picked up next morning where the maniac had thrown him i ll the car into a heap of broken rock. He said he had been taken un­ aware and suddenly pushed from the platform. Fortunately he was not killed, though he was badly hurt. There was nothing on the dead mau to reveal his identity, and if that was ever discovered I never know it. Of course I reported the facta to the department, and of course I was repri­ manded, but I did not lose my place. I suppose the authorities thought I bad been punished enough.—Drake’s Mag­ azine. __ THE ELEVENTH CENSUS. The enumeration of Inhabitants Of the United States that began Monday is the eleventh In our history. The first was taken in 1790. There were then thirteen states—the original thirteen—but-the population of Maine, Kentucky, Vermont and Tennessee was taken also. The enumeration was begun on the first of March, and the returns showed a total population of 3,929,326. In 1800 the last three mentioned had become states, and the population was numbered also In In­ diana (which then included all the “Old Northwest’’ except Ohio), Ohio, Mississippi anji the District of Colum­ bia. The total number was then 5,808,­ 483. In 1810, Ohio had become a state, Loulsana had been acquired by pur­ chase. its boundaries including nearly all our new Northwest, upd Illinois and Michigan had been organized as separate territories. The total popu­ lation then was 7.239,881. By 1820 the states of Louisian, Indi­ ana, Mississippi, Illinois, Alabama and Maine had been admitted, and the territory of Arkansas organized. The returns showed 9,633,822 persons. Missouri was admitted as a state in 1821, Florida was acquired in 1822, and the census of 1830 showed 12,866.020 in­ habitants. Before 1840 Arkansas and Michigan were states, Wisconsin and Iowa Territories had been organized. The population returned that year was 17,169,453. Florida, Iowa, Texas and Wisconsin were stales before 1850, and California, Oregon and Minnesota had been orga­ nized as territories. The total popula­ tion that year was 23,281,876. During the next decade California, Oregon and Minnesota were ad­ mitted as states, and the lerritorles of Kansas, New Mexico, Utah and Washington were organized. The ■census showed a population of 31,183,* thing that looked like a big Bartlett The bureau is better organized than ever before, anti there 16 good reason tri hope that the final results will be ascertained and published much {fast­ er than they were after the tenth cen- From the Buckeye State­ Marietta, Ohio, June 2nd, 1990.

But I would write ot Marietta of today, rather than of a hundred years gone by. I find that travel by steam boat bat by no means left the river, and that as fine a class of pasaenger boats arc traversing the stream aa has ever ran upon ita waters. One can hear the chime whistle of the boats at any hour of botli day and night, as well, alse upon Sul day, aud the excursion boats are loaded •with human freight, to pointe of interest, with tbelr bands, and beer tea The Muskingum here unites ite waters with the Ohio, and three railroads reach the river here from through the hills to the west and north, to coming in, on the C. & M. road, it was a continuous line of curve# and grades for a hundred miles, and although the people boast of a tine farming country, I was unable to locate an acre of level land from Canal Dover to Marietta. They hare an abundance of coal all along the route and oil at some points. Kight here the oil fever U raging high, at the present time. The noted Eureka oil fields are but a few miles up the river, and Weat Virginia oil is worth <1-25 per barrel at the wells, while western Ohio oil is worth only 35 cts. per barrel at the wells. The crop of strawberries is abundant and I just now are at the flush of the season. A large dfah ol fresh, ripe strawberries, three times a day, Is regular fare. Would you luce to have a few I I look a trip, during the past week, across the state of Indiana. Leaving Ft. Wayne at an early morning hour, I traveled by way of vestibule Wabash train to Logansport, then went, via Panhandle, to destination, and on re turn trip I sped directly across the state, ca*t, coming into Ohio at Celina, and there raw, for the first time, the great artificial body of water of the world, reaching from Olina to St Marys and covering 85,000 acres of land. This reservoir was constructed us a feeder to the canal running from Toledo to Cincinnati. and gas wells, and upon reaching the vxtlnliy of Lima I was much amazed to find hundreds of acres of land covered with large tanks of oil, each tank estimated to contain from twenty-Are to thirty thousand barrels. Along this line of road it seemed they were doing no other line of business but dealing tn oil and gas well supplies. Having been interrupted at this point by a call for train ffortb, I have taken a run of CO mlleqand am now writing from the city of Cambridge, Guernsey county. Their bulletin board at the depot says that they offer an un­ limited supply of natural gas and free sites to solid factories to locate here. The town is finely located upon the hillside and baa two railroads, good water, fine building stone and coal at the very door, but the ..city of Peru, Indiana, goes far ahead in its offer, as they advertise to furnish free natural gas with free rite and from one to fifty thousand dollars cash bonus for solid factories to locate lu that city. There seems lo be an abundance of oak. ash, maple and other bard wood in both states for the manufacture of all kinds of machineryAt Marietta they undertook to tell me that their chair factory was making chain of all kinds, that were sold in Michigan, as well as other^states. This I could believe if the sub­ ject of wages were alike, but as the scale of wages seems to be 50 per cent, higher here than there I do not think they can pay freights and compete In our markets. During the past week the trains have a!| been loaded with societies and veterans, going to and from Cleveland, attending the dedi­ cation of the Garfield monument Without specific information upon the subject I will ac­ cept as a fact that Comrade Al.

Tbe minor )ea<ue« nave com­ menced to feel the effects of th« bsaebali war, and torn* of them are about to go to the wulL 'lhe International League ,h standing on the brink, and several other minor leagues are not aoy too strong. Tbe American Association, too. is loa ns moutiy. Brooklyn ha< aheady flaunted tr.6 distress signal. This is not surpris­ ing. The .club wu organized there on the Sunday games ana beer privilege basis, and had no place in repuUblg base-ball. It fans been a losing venture from the fiist, and the sooner it is out of m-nutioa continuea. and cither tbc Na­ tional cr Players' League go to tbe wall, then tbc year of 5890 will always be looked back to as a v'car of disaster. At get back their lo«*e« of the reason. "I remarked some lime »go," said Pres­ ident A. G. Spalding, ot tho Chicago League Club, in an interview tho other dav, “that the interest in profession.I base-ball in loading cities was djing out. 1 bave seen nothing since to change my views. Let us analyze the attendance of both leagues during the past lew days. Tho total sttendiinco of the four National League game* Monday aggregated, ac­ cording to newspaper accounts. 4.651 leoplo, and the Players' League 3,413. Tuesday tbe one National Leanua game attracted MM) people and tho two Brother­ hood gemes drew 4 51. On Wednesday, a beautiful day, tbe four National League game* drew 4,829 and tbe Players' League 5,074. Yesterday the National I caguo drew 4.845 peop'e and tho players 4,169. Thus wo have a total at­ tendance for four days at thirteen of tho National League games of 15.126 people, while tbo Players' League drew 13,i27 feople for fouiteen games. Tho avertge, ou this basis, for tbo National Loaguo is 1,103, against 937 for the Players' Lo-'gtie, or a i rand average of 1.040 peop'e for loth leagues. Taking tbo last two or three jems as a L'asis, the National League, without ojiposit on land no fall­ ing off iu iutoiest), wou d average about 3.:.90 people per game. Thia shows ihat the grand average of attendance this year is 1.041), against 3,390 for lhe National League without opposition. “Without allowing for tbo largo compliruentHry list and tbo 25-eent admission, and estimating it nt 50 cents par bead, tho total leceif ti of the last thirteen Na­ tional League games in the four best cities in the country amounted to $7,363, or $582 per game, or $291 per club, as against >6,553 for the fourteen Players' League games, or $468 per game, or $334 t>er club. These receipts barely pay tho expenses of the home < lab in advertising and tbe genersl expenses of putting the game on, and about sufficient to pay the iravoling exj euses of tbe i tailing club. “Well, ou these fi-Ur.-s whore are the Plater*' League salaiies to come from ? The salaries of tie National League playots will come from ti e ireasuries of the clu* s and tbe Players' League salaries must come from the receipt* after the exEensea Late been paid. If the truth'wero rown, it is doubtful if many ot tbe players in tbe Brotherhood have received much pay since tuo season ha< opened excepting the admnees they got daring the winter. How long can this sort of thing continue? Ae long as tho National League clubs can supply sufficient money and pay suhrirs. ana as long as the Broth­ erhood leaders can keep tho rank and file of their player* salaried with glitter ng promises instead of cash, “Now M.to the inducements to main­ tain the tight presented to the backers, T£te players bare s ten cd contracts with them • greeing to take their salaries out ot tbe gate receipts. Furthermore, what in­ ducement is there for their backers to put out money on u Iosins venture when, even should they win. thev can receive only cno-hnlf tie Diofits i nd take all the ’ink*. Without reference ns to what may happen to tbc National League it is sim­ ply u question of time when the Brother­ hood bubble must burst, ft is organized on a misrepresentation end w misappre­ hension of facts. The backers were led into it by tbe players on promises of big profits nnd in turn tb,-«y tied the players up for three years on a'gate receipt s lary contract. All tins means that tbe backora, wjth the possible excention of one club, have hopelessly lost all the money th»y put into tbe scheme, with no chance of getting it out, and tbe players will not get one-half the salaries promised them. A“I am for war. uncompromising and without quarter. I wm opposed to it at first, but now I went to fight until one of us drops dead. Mind you. tbe work hu uot yet begun. The National League waa built up by fourteen years of the moat assiduous labor. Wo had one grand _ otc fight. That enemy was deenemy moralization. It faced us in many guises —crooks base-ball, work the V*’I *■ “*“*“” dirty — *• -on •*-field, rough elements, want of discipline, jack of confidence. We met them all, cub our bands a little, but we won. Now we have to face tbe old problem again. But M yet only tbe opening guns have been tired. Tne slaughter ia yet to come. And the league is prepared for the slaughter. "I can see clearly the outlines of the future. If the Flayers' League lasts there will I e 25-cent base-ball. Sunday games, beer will flow in the grand stands, nnd tho industry will be ruined by utter Jestruction as the grand finale of tbe play. The league, I promise you. will hold on until it is dashed to pieces against the rocks of rebellion and demor­ alization. I stand tea iy to go out of the business and wash my hands clean of it all whan the hour comes." —Dominick Ginglia, Mat Scholar, Michael Bachor and Joseph Geaosir, miners, were killed by a fall of rock at the South Hecla mine.

The local train connecting at Oakland with the' ferryboats from San Francisco rau through an open drawbridge over San Antonlfi Creek at Webster streou Oak­ land. The yacht Juanita had Just passed through the draw when the train appeared, going In the direction of Alameda. The drawbridge keeper endeavored at once to clow tho. bridge, but It was too late, nnd the engine.with the lender and the first car. which' waa filled with passengers, plunged into the creek, which was here quite deep. Engineer Sara Dunn, when he«aaw that the.bridge- did notcloeo, reversed the lover, but the momentum of the <inelne was too great tb allow him to slop the train In time. The weight of the engine and the first car broke the coup­ lings and left the other two cars of the train standing on tbe truck. The sec­ ond car ran about a third of the way across the bridge and stopped, but the jar was sufficient to break open the front of the car, nnd manv'of tho pas­ sengers were thrown into tho waler. The first car. which had followed the engine to tho bottom of the muddy es­ tuary, soon rose, and such of the passen­ gers as had escaped were picked up by tho yachts and small boats which gath­ ered at the scone. The trainmen and the rest of tho passengers set to work to* help the rescuers, and when the wreck­ ing train arrived from‘Oakland the.car was drawn into shallow water and small boats began dragging the crock for the bodies of tho victims. The top of me passenger coach waa cut open as soon ks It waa raised above the water and the work of removing the bodies commenced, ten being taken out In quick succession. Three women and three girls were taken from tho water alive and removed to tho receiving hos­ pital. Another young lady died soon after being taken from tbo water. Tho news of tho accident created In­ tense excitement In Oakland and thous­ ands of people flocked to the morgue and to the scene of the wreck. At the morgue bodies were laid out as soon as received to await Identification. The body of E. F-. Robinson, which was among these taken from the holo rut. In tho roof of tho car. waa among the first removed, and was taken charge of by Coroner Evers. The bodies of six mm aud two women wero brought In soon after, some of thejiodie* being at first left at the receiving hospital, where the injured were also taken. In a short time thirteen bodies lay on the floor and on the marble slabs of the morgue awaiting identification, and heartrending scenes were witnessed as friends camo forward to clalhi their dead. । Tbe list of the identified Is as follows: MARTIN KELLY.

Tho experience of the passengers In the first coach, as related by those who fortunately escaped, was horrible In the extreme. F. F. Finley, of San Fran­ cisco, one uf the passengers, told a graphic story of the disaster. “We left the city." he said, "on the 1:23 train for Alameda on the narrowgnagn. 1 was sealed on the front scat of the first car. facing the engine. All went well until just as we approached the drawbridge crossing San Antonio creek. As we drew near t«5 the bridge It seemed to mn the draw was open and that a fearful jtgcldont war inevitable. Just theh'a man Jumped from the engine Into thn water, and then camo a crash. A horrible crush­ ing of timber and snapping of heavy iron-work followed, and at once con; sternation prevailed in the car. The next thing 1 know I found myself blindly groping for the door, which I fortu­ nately found and opened. When I found myself on the platform I gradually worked my way by climbing and hold­ ing on to tho front of tho car to tho roof, which I had just reached when that end of tho car rose out ol tho w*ater. and quite a number of people escaped in this manner, principally women aud children. The car was about two-thirds full when wo left the wharf, and 1 should Judge there wero at least fifty people In it. There was a fearful outcry when tho cur began to fill, but this was almost immediately hushed la one long final'wall of despair." James Dunlap, who was lending the bridge at the time of the accident,said: "I wxs in charge at the time and had Just opened the draw to to allow tho yacht Juanita to pass through. I was In the act of moving tho draw back into place when the uptrain from San- Francisco came along. That Is all I know about IL” Ho de­ clined to answer the question If It was not rather unusual to open the draw Just at tbe hour when tho train was due. The water over which the bridge Is built is an estuary of San Francisco bay. A strong current runs in the stream, which at the ooint of the accident Is about 300 feet wide and twenty feetdepp. A passenger train crosses thtf bridge every half hour during the day and when thn bridge Is open the keeper If supposed to signal by hoisting a rod flag. The bri^gfftender says the danger flag was properly set In the cen­ ter of tbe track when the bridge was opened for tbe yacht Juanita to pass. it is known that tho engineer and fireman both escaped. It seems proba­ ble that the terrible accident was due to the carelessness of the engineer. It Is now know that there were forty­ eight people In the car that went down. Df these nineteen are known to have es­ caped with their lives, making the prob­ able number of the killed twenty-nine. Here ore two* sentences, each of Dr. Fattom*.

Darwin J. McKay sentenced Nov. 19, 1885, by the judge of the Barry county circuit court to the state prison at Jack­ son for life on a verdict of guilty of the murder of Tho xias Searles, was par­ doned-Thoasday by Gov. Lnce. Mc­ Kay was committed on purely circum­ stantial evidence, and after reviewing the case with the ^oard of pardons, he, as well as each member of the board, thought the preponderance of testi­ mony in favor of the innocence of the convict and hence the pardon. The Hastings creamery is now ac­ tively engaged in the manufacture of cheese as well as butter. Tbe cheese will soon be put upon the market, nnd it is expected will command a good price. It is the “full cream cheese.” The factory is now receiving over 4,­ 500 pounds of milk per day. and it is expected this quantity will be increas­ ed to over 5,000 by the close of the week. It keeps tbe manager and but­ ler-maker on the hustle to handle this quantity. Fanners are finding it to their advantage to sell their milk to tbe creamery instead of making butter themselves, and there appears to be no doubt but that they get larger returns by so doing.—Hastings Banner.

What Might Have Appeared in a Cer­ tain Newspaper. In a certain western newspaper office the gentleman whose business it is to record the fluctuations of the live stock market sits across from the young man to whose lot it fa'ls to report wedding ceremonies. Both are graphic writers and enjoy that latitude of expression characteristic of western journalism. Both use the same kind of paper, and their penmanship is not unlike. Not long ago the wedding reporter was suddenly called out of the office and left in the middle of the table several sheets uf paper on which was a description of a fashionable wedding. These sheets were gathered up by the live stock writer alien he finished his report, and the two stones became mixed. This is what the zealous eye of the proof reader, later in the evening, saved from reaching the public eye: "The church was elaborately decor­ ated with holly and evergreen, and the alterwas hidden in a wreath of flowers. Out o^the recuses rose tropical plants and fiom the ceiling hung fifteen west-z erj veals, which at this time of the year are scarce and correspondingly dear al six to eight and one-half cents a pound. There was also an active de­ mand tor choice lambs, and tbe far­ mers en«t.of the Mississippi river can profitably turn to sheep raising and take tbe bride, who wore a gown of white corded silk, a creation of Worth’s with pearl ornaments. "Then came the maid of honor, the cousin of tbe bride.

Mr. Oclgrove spoke almost altogether without notes and delivered one of the best, if not the best, ad­ dress ever delivered here Upon a Mem­ orial day. His reference to the un­ veiling of the statue of Robert E. Lee At Richmond on Wednesday, or rather the carrying of rebel dags through the streets of Washington by troups on the way to that unveiling was timely andTlght. The speaker argued that the laws of the country should be against the parading of the rebel llag In the face of those who helped put It dow; for he believed that when Lee surrendered to Giant nt Appomattox It was a surrender of Hags, side-arms, etc., although the rebels were allowed to take these home with them. }Ve have hot Ume nor space to go into a review of the senator’s entire address, but will say that we have" yet to see the person who was not well pleased with It.

Representativesi,f these different types and the races which sprang from them are still to be found there. The whites, according to M. de Qufftrefages. appear to have originat­ ed on the west of the central mass, the yellows on the north, and the blacks on the south.

HOBSE POWER. When men begin first to tiecome familiar with the methods of measur­ ing mechanical power, they oft m spec­ ulate on where the treed of horses is to be found which can keep at work raising 33,000 pounds one foot per minute, or the equivalent, which is familiar to men accustomed to pile­ driving by horse power, of raising 330 pounds 100 feet per minute. Since 33,000 pounds raised one foot per minute is called one horse power, It is natural for people to think that the engineers who established that und of measurement based it on . the actual work performed by horses. But that was not the case. The horse power unit was established by James Watt ** about a century ago: and the figures were settled in a-curious way. Watt, in bls usual careful manner, proceeded to find out the'Average work which the horses of his district could per­ form, and he found that the raising of ' 22,000 pounds one foot per minute was about an actual horse Dower. At this time he was employed in the manu­ facture of engines, and had almost a monopoly of the engine building trade. Customers were so bard to find that , all kinds of artificial encouragements were considered necessary to Induce power users to buy steam engines. As a method of encouraging business, Watt offered to sell engines reckoning 33.000 foot pounds to a horse power, or •ne-half more that’the actual. And thus, what was intended as a tempor­ ary expedient to promote business has lyentfe means of giving a false unit -f « wry lu.jx.rtMt measurement to * But Not all, for the Half Could Be Told. raid ban to go ratty a few aUm moth of Psscoto .trike the Patoura country, which I* a* firn an agricultural country, without irriga­ tion, as tbe mid ahloea udod.

Nineteen ships load­ ed with 'wheat valued at a million and a half dollar*, have left this port since September 8d. Every bu»hcl of th I* wheat was raised In Eastern Washington. But this does not l>egln to represent the crop, as there le yet a great deal of wheat in the elevators, both here and In the Interior. Portland got some and a peat deal went into consumption. And remember, that a very small portion of the wheat lands have been opened up for (lerelopemnt yet. It Is estimated by competent authority that Washington has an area capable, when settled, of producing when settled, of producing two hundred million bushels of wheat. Besides Washington has more limber than Michigan and Maine; iron ore that will stand the test of comparison with the best products of Pennsylvania and Michigan; It has coal, coke, lead, copper, sliver and gold; unrivalled harbors and a delightful climate. -. Eastern Washington Is also adopted to the production of fruits, vegetablesand tobacco; and western Washington produces unrivalled bops, grits, bay, fruits etc. Probab'y no state In the Union has such diversified resources. Western Washington is growing much more rapidly than Eastern Washington. The Cen* bus supervisors begin their work to day. They estimate that the nineteen counties west of the Cascade summit, comprising the Puget Sound district, will show a population 225,000, and that the eastern portion will have 130,000, making a total of 355,000 tn the state. In 1880 the whole population was but 39,910. Can any state show an equal growth I Showalter, writing from the measly little town of Pasco, says that “the financial crisis has begun, and tbc cry all over the state is bard times and scarcity of money.” Tbl* is. the faec of the fact, that more grain has been sown than ever before, with every prospect for wonderful^largc crops; the extensive develop­ ment of the Colvillo Okanogan and Kittitas mineral regions and the active era of railway building. Showalter also states that Spokane Falls, Tacoma and Seattle have been built with Eastern Capital and all branches of busi­ ness men have contracted debts and are unable tn mtet them. Now, so far ss Tacoma is concerned, it is a well known fact that but few cities in the Union is so free of indebtedness. There is ab­ solutely no municipal debt and business men generally are doing busltieu on their own cap­ ital. Of course, large blocks of Eastern Capi­ tal comes here for investment In real estate but local capitalist* are putting their money Into manufactories, half-million dollar blocks, street railways, and lhe finest homes you ever saw. In fact Tacoma is rapidly becoming a financial center. She has four banks having a capital of half a million and over, and eight tunning from 1100,000 to <300,000, and some of these banka have a deposit account of a million each. This doc* not look very nnteb as though money was scarce, doe* it! By the way I want to say right here that the prospects of Tacoma were never so bright as al present. It la estimated that <5,000,000 worth of build­ ings arc now under construction, and that the' present census will show a population of 35.000•’ Well, dear Nxwb, I have spun thia rambling letter ou?a great deal farther than I intended.

The ticket-taker smiled, listened to what I had |o say about Cooney, and passed out to find some cash castomen. Arriving at the fair city—World's Fair—the red-handed murderer hast­ ened to board a North Side cable-car. With no friend but my cheek, and no fortune but an umbrella that I had found on the train and reluctantly appropriate^. I followed suit. I camo within an ace of being put off, but a mysteridus "hist" and a dis­ play of my tin star caused the agent of the bloated monopoly to leave ma in At Lincoln Park Cooney left the car and entered a large stono-front house. “He has rorne to wring gold from his rich employer,".! sagaciously decided. Having nothing else to do, I watched, or rather shadowed, tho house all night □ lire De for detective novels, and finally started out in the role of a second Monsieur Lecoq. I met with some success, too. I was three times beaten by daring criminals whom I was “shadowing." and twice jailed,for impersonating an officer. Emboldened by these evidences of tny genius, and horrified by the awful Cronin murder, I sold out my lunch route and started in quest of “Cooney the Fox." I was returning Chicagoward with a whole bundle of clews in my olaws, when, at a railway lunch-room, I sighted my man. I knew him by his gleaming eye. cruel mouth and crafty brow. Besides, he was “swinging round his head a hatchet, or rather a small ax, that, with true Gaboriauan shrewdness. I determined was the verv weapon with Which the fatal blow had been struck. "All aboard!" shouted the conductor, <t that moment entering the room. Cooney flourished his ax, and pointed to a legend on the wall to the effect that the train stopped ten minutes for •refreshments. About nine o’clock in the morning the fugitive from justice emerged. So completely was he metomorRhosed, as the'" say tn the books, that i made my head ache to recognize him. and a man with less mansard roof to his forehead, though far greater pecuniary resources, would have let him pass’unchallenged. So did I, for that matter, but I was at great pains not to lose sight of him. His low-crowned linen hat and long duster had given place to a high rilk tile and broadcloth coat, while his legs were engaged in a pair of shapely, light-colored trousers. Pausing in his walk, he seated him­ self upon a rustic bench, behind which was a bracket and a board sign, "Look out for paint!" Whether it waa tbe pungs of his guilty conscience or the odor of the lead and oil, I shall never know, but he soon leaped excitedly to his feet, caught up bin coat-tails, and looked searchiogly behind him. A successful detective should have no sense of the ludicrous. I have, and that it was that ruined me. The two dark bars on the abaft por­ tion of the Fox's light trousers sug­ gested the grating of the lock-up to which I was soon to consign him, r ud I laughed aloud. . With a scowl he turned upon me. Then, realiziug that the bare were down and the jig up, I told him he waa my prisoner. In ten minute* I had brought him to Clark street and summoned a patrol wagon. "This is Cooney, tho Fox," said I, when the conveyance arrived. Then tho three officers began to laugh like fiends. “And who bez ye?" demanded the leader of the gang. “The unraveler of the great Cronin mystery; the original and only----- " . “Fraud!" shrieked the copper, as he tore open my coat and removed my “Time’s up!

The death of the Count of Punonroatro, a Spanish nobleman, recalls a sin­ gular story of the post. The Emperor Charles V. was hunting one day—so. the story goes—which is very likely founded upon an actual occurrence, but in it* details may have been modern­ ized in the long time which has elapsed —with -one of his body-guard at his side. Charles was a redoubtable hunt­ er, and to was the guard. Presently a partridge passed, quite high over their heads. Both sportsmen tired at the same time, and the bird fell It was brought by the Emperor’s servants. ‘ “Which one of ns, do yon think," said Charles, “killed this partridge?" “It wa* I." said tho guard. •aid the Emperor. , He had hardly spoken when tha guard struck him so severe a blow in the face that he could hardly keep his feet. Charles* first movement was to point his gun straight at the audacious guard, and pull the trigger, but the weapon had just been discharged, and had not been reloaded. While the Emperor was reloading he decided that he would not shoot the guard on the npot. He sent him to prison instead, with orders to prepare for his execution. “Your fault (s tho greater," said tha Emj>eror. "because there was doubt whether thou didst really kiil tha bixd." "There is no doubt, sire, in my mind, said the guard. “Will you permit me to see tho bird ?" The partridge was brought, and the guard showed tho Emperor that it had been killed with a ball from his rifle. The Emperor had been using bird-shot all day. The’ Emperor felt a little remorse at this, but did not countormabd his or­ der for the guard’s death; but at the last moment he had tho man brought before him. “Dost thou repent of striking mo?" “No, aire,” said the guard. “If I had a thousand lives, and your Majesty should tell me a thousand times, with­ out reason,‘that I lied, a thousand times would I put my fist in your face (mi puno en el rostro>, and a thousand times would I go calmly to the block." Tho Emperor sat pensively for some time revolving the matter in his mind. The words mi puoo en el roatro ran­ kled in his mind, but presently he said, “My reign has need of such men as you, after all. I wish there were a thousand like you!

A new-mado grave in the National Cemetery, PreMdio, marks tbe last resting-place of Margaret Molloy. There is not a soldier who has served in the First Artillery'Begiment during the past thirty years who did not know aud love the woman whose life has just gone out. Margaret Molloy was the daughter of the First. She had followed its for­ tunes for the j>ast thirty yearn. Born in County Mayo, Ireland, she 'same to this country when a little girl, and from that time almost up to the hour of her death her life was an; event­ ful one. '■ The booming guns which marked the opening of the civil war were her wed­ ding bells, for beneath the stars and stripes floating, over Fort Sumter Margaret was married to one of the little band of soldiers comprising the command of Major Anderson, and when the garrison marched out of the fort they hod so nobly defended, Margaret Molloy marched with them. She’ was eighteen years of age then , and through the long years of the civil war alie followed the fortunes of the First, caring for the sick aud wounded, nursing back to life many a soldier who, but for her aid, would have filled an unmarked grave. For her services Margaret Molloy more than once re­ ceived the thanks of the commanding General, and her name has found a fre­ quent place in the army reports. At tne close of the war Margaret and her husband still remained with the First Artillery Regiment, and with that command came to the Presidio in 1881. In February last her husband. John Molloy, Battery “C," died, and was buried with military honors. He, too, was a native of Ireland, haring been born in County "Westmeath fifty-four years ago. He had served longer in the First Artillery than any other soldier in the rogi’mgut, and his fune­ ral was attended by all the officer* stationed at the Presidio.

The Northern Cheyennes have been plotting ^agalnst agency officials and settlers for the last two years, and recently have added to the excitement by attempting to leave tho reservation In considerable bands to meet the new Messiah, who, it was stated, would appear on tho reservation of the Plegans. Being checked by troops from carrying out their plans they became greatly enraged and openly th re at­ oned to murder all who opposed them. They purchased firearms wherever they could obtain them, and a few nights since assassinated Henry S. Ferguson, a leading slock*grower, near lhe agency. Being apprehensive of arrest,, tbc rads have ba nd Ml together and literally sleep bn their firearm*. Settlers In the vicin­ ity of the agency arc almost wholly with­ out protection, and many of them hove abandoned their homes and fled to Mlles City and other neighboring towns.

Shawano (Wittydispatch: The trouble on the Keshena Indian Reservation, or­ iginally precipitated by Hie change of ncents. has reached such a point that little short of a miracle will prevent a meeting of armed forces of the govern­ ment on the one band and the Indians on the other. While reports sent out from * this city have been great­ ly exaggerated, tbo facts arc of sufficient Importance to cause the gravest apprehension for tho safety of those whose business keeps them on the reservation. The other dav the feast of Corpus Christi was celebrated, and in consequence the Indians assembled at Keshena in largo numbers to attend the church. At tho conclusion of tho services tho women withdrew and the bucks, priests aud ex-Agent Jennings held n conference. As a result Jennings wont back to the reservation. Agent Kelsey, tho newly appointed Indian agent, who, with Inspector Chlsney. was compelled to leave the reservation, returned, while ex-Agenl Jennings held tho forlat Keshena. There is no doubt that had not Kelsey loft tho reservation when he did he would have sufforcG at the hands of the reds, a* the Indians wore under lhein fluence of whisky ami were greatly excited. The other evening Mr. Savage, at whose place the now agent was board­ ing. camo tb Mr. Kelsey and told him he could not keep him any longer, as the Indians would come that night and tear his house down if ho did, Not­ withstanding the fact that it was ra’ning heavily Agent Kelsey was forced to procure a team and drive to Shawano that night in a blinding storm. That same afternoon ono of the priests came to Inspector Chlsney and told him he better leave the reservation if he wished to ovoid trouble and liability of being Injured. It Is reported that 8.912,010 a conspiracy exists to,eject Agent Kelsey and all Govern­ ment official* bodily from the reserva­ tion. The ringleaders to the number of seven are said to be carrying Into ex­ ecution the will of the priest?. It Is given out that troops will be or­ dered here from Fort Snelling. It is most difficult to arrive at a logical con­ clusion as to the cause of the uprising. Without question Jennings is popular with the Indians, but whether or not be has directly excited them in this de­ i fiance of government authority Is mereI ly a matter of conjecture. Lumber 1 mon of this ciiy attribute this trouble : In a measure to the fact that tho In­ , dians are laboring under the hallurina| tion that a change of agents means that : they will eventually lose all their lands ! mid money and that tbe change Is made ! for the express purpose of benefiting a I few rich lumbermen in the State who are trying to secure their phie. An effort will be mode to have several Wisconsin lumbermen who have dealt largely with lhe Indians visit them at once aud attempt to show them their folly In resisting the change of agents. However, many aro of the opinion that blood will be shed before the Indians can be brought to a proper realization of the situation. BAD WRECK IN KENTUCKY.

Dr. Daniel of the agency urged him to have ait operation performed, but the noble red man thought he would cut a sorry figure with one leg, and said he would rather die. Arguments were un­ availing. The dodtor then thought of a good scheme to gain his consent. He hied himrelf to Pierre, where he se­ cured the service of a friend who jour­ neys through life on one leg of fiesh and another* manufactured from the bark Of the cork tree. Together they started to the reservation, and, after the doctor’s friend had given the bravo an exhibition of how he could fly around on liis cork member, tho Indian was satisfied, and even anxious to submit to the operation and told the doctor that he might cut off both legs, os ho was habitually troubled with cold feet every winter. An elephant is a rather hnge and nnwieldly animal to go walking about in his sleep. A circus elephant on board a train going from Pittsburg to Johns­ town the other night developed into a successful somnambulist. While in a deep slumber, and dreaming, perhaps, that he was in old Africa taking a walk through a favorite jungle, he made a couple of laps around his car, and then walked out of the aide door. Sleep, sleep even of the balmiest de­ scription, is likely to be interupted by such an incident, and the elephant hod no sooner struck the ground than he was wide awake.

It ia a queer place, and it looks all the queerer because it is wedged in between suck beautiful houses, but 1 have always liked to live here till one night last week. That’s what I started^ to tell you about—the party next door. Tbe people in the house next to ours have not lived there very long, aud they gave a party for their daughter, the sweetest young lady, with the blackest eyes you ever saw, and curly Hack hair and pink cheeks. When I went ujmtairs to bed that night, I sat down by the window to take off my shoes, and I could see straight into their dining-room. Oh, wasn’t it splendid! Such a beautiful table, covered with shining ailver and gl»M, aud everything good to eat that you could imagine! And over the table waa a soft red light thaC made it look like fairyland. At first I only admired it all, but seeing so many nice things to eat made me think of our supper that night—just beansand bread, with­ out a mite of butter! I hadn't thought but that it waa good enough when I ate itj but this was all so different that before I knew it I was mad. Here ware there rich folks, who had plenty ot good things to eat every day of their lives, going to have this splendid sup­ per, more than thev could possibly cat, a&d mother and I could not have a single bit—and mother working so hard, too! And there we had had nothing to eat for at least a week but beans and bread aud corn-meal mush, just because folks whoowedmv mother would not pay her! Then I said right out, “It’s mean, so there.!" and stamped my foot. Of course mother heard me, and she called up the stairway, “What are yon doing. Jack?" I called back: “It is mean that those old stingy folks can have everything good to eat, and we can't have anything! We are just as good as they are, and.have just as much right to grapes and oranges and frosted cake! I think it is horrid to live next door to a r artyj Mother came upstairs saying. “Why Jack!" iu such a grieved tone that I began to feel ashamed of myself. She pulled down the curtain, and then she talked to me about getting so angry and being to envious of other people, and-how naughty such feelings were, till I really did think I had been foolinh. and I said so. Then she kissed me good-night and went downstairs. The next noon I had just come in from school aud mother was hurrying to ge.t dinner readv—it was only mush aud milk—when the big knocker on the front dpor went “Bang! Bang!” “It is probably Mr. Peters, after the rent," said mother; “I am glad I have it saved all ready for him." But it was not Mr. Peters. There stood that pretty young lady who had the party, with the loveliest basket of roses aud ferns and a colored boy with a big basket covered with a white cloth. “I have brought you over some ol my party," she said, in such a sweet voice; “I enjoyed it so much myself that I want my neighbors to enjoy it. too." and she smiled as if she never had anything but a good time. I wa* so astonished that I don’t know how I acted. I believe I asked her to come in, but she did not com*, and I found myself with the two bas­ kets, and the door was shut. Kother had her face in those rosea in a minute, and I do believe sha sprinkled everyone of them with tears. I piled out the things from the big basket, and oh, I can't begin to teU you all there was! Why, there was about every kind of fruit—oranges, apples, bananas, pears, grapes, plums, tig*, raisins, and I don’t kuow what all. Mother said it did seem as if that bosket waa made of India rubber.

In some distriota of 'China, especially tn time of war or famine, poor people tare so me times guiltv of destroying - their female infants. But the educated Chinese disapprove of thia custom, ■nd societies exist for its suppression by aiding poor parents with money when a girl is born to them and by prosecuting such as are guilty of its practice. The reason for this^opular ■version to female progeny lies chiefly Id the fact that girls in Cnina are be­ trothed while yet very young and some­ times leave their own parents to lige in the homes of their prospective hus­ bands lobg before thev are married. In a Chinese proverb girls are called •fine bamboo shoots springing up outaide the fence”—that is, outside their fathers’ homes. The significance of this saying will be apparent when it is known that the bamboo tree is the most useful plant which grows in the Flow­ ery Kingdom. Ito young shoots, much like great asparagus plants, are used for food, and out of the wood of the tree are made kitchen and table utensils, ■hop-sticks, tables, chairs, and umbrel­ las, and masts, sails, and cordage of boats. AU the parental love which girh in China miss is lavished upon their brothers, upon whom devolves the family honor and the sacrifice] worship Cirformed at the graves of their anoesrs, and the Chinaman's ideal ofeperfect bliss is “much joy, many sons, and great wealth,” mi ideal which they ex­ press by a term meaning “threefold Mappiness." The youngsters of the Orient are not lacking in names, and some of them are saddled with titles which an Amer.lean would lose no time,in ridding him­ self of by application to his Legisla­ ture. Among the superstitious highaoundiug names are supposed to arouse the envious wrath of evil spir­ its. and their children often bear such 'appellations as “Little Dog,” “Hill Dag." and “Old Cow." The more, re­ fined and intelligent of the Chinese choose for their little ones the finer titles of "Long-Lived King," “Glori, ©us Light Summer," “Beautiful Gem Place, and "Beautiful Phoenix Bell." etc. Besides these names the little ©Des have what are called "milk names." which correspond to the pet names of American nurseries. Matterof-fact Chinamen waste no energy in inventing titles for their children, and they are simply known by numbers, the first born, of course, being “Num­ ber One.” When the boys enter school they have a new name given them by their masters, such as, for instance, "Perfect Tafifct,” "Dutiful Obedience,” ' * CHINESE VILLAGE SCHOOL. ■aacwly for the purpose of ©ookiag food ■CLOSE observer I will not foil to note that a sort of reac­ tion ' has set in ageinat us women tin late years.

Like the shark, aud perhaps tho cuckoo^ the mountain pheasant is generally ac­ companied by ii satellite, in this in­ stance the latter being a small, jerky little bird, popularly called the “pheas­ ant's mother,” but none such -was visi­ ble to our eyes on this occasion. Th© whij«-bird, or coachwhij>-bird, referred to is generally heard in the scrub proper, and has received its name from its habit of ending its loud cry or not© with an abrupt crack, like that pro­ ducefl by the long lash of a stock whip. —Harper’s Magaxine.

But should the Cheyennes break their promises made to Colonel Curtis and Major t’pshaw In open council last night and be caught at their old tricks, all the troops in Fort Keough and Custer combined cannot prevent bloodshed. The stockmen are terribly in earnest and. swear they will shoot every Indian who is detected killing range cattle on the reservation. That tho settlers have had good cause to be frightened is undoubtedly true, des­ pite the talk of the «cldlers to the con-* trary. Ever since Ferguson's body was found riddled with bullets a month ago thirty miles from the agency the feeling has been Intense, and it needed but a single ill-advised word or action on the part of 'either tho cow­ boys or Indians to precipitate a campaign .of blood. Major Carroll, who Is still encamped a mile below here with throe troops of calvary, says he has Investigated the stories of outrages by Indians, and while he acknowledges the Chcyennoxjiavo trilled many cattle, ho believes the reports aro greatly exaggerated. Tho Indians are well supplied with Springfield rifles, which thov arc sup­ posed to use In the hunt, but, ai a mat­ ter of fact, all tho game on tho reserva­ tion would not furnish the tribo with meat enough for o ne day's rations. If the Indians arc to be kept here nnd the propertv of the while settlors re­ spected and their Uvea secured, the government must give the Cheyennes enough to cat or they will go off tbolr reservation and got fresh beef, and while doing this they arc sure to be de­ tected by the stockman, who. In turn, will tire upon the Indians and a general fight will be tho Inevitable outcome. Fresh beef Is the only gnmo in this country for tbe I nd labs to kill, and so long as they are permitted to retain their guns an outbreak may bo expected at any moment.

Every night when .you remove your trousera spread them out flat from front to rear, making the front fold ;uru on the first suspender button, sod □ringing the front and rear crease in each leg together in such a wav that the inner seams in the leg will lie one over the other, as shown in the cut. Then, having done this, make another fold just at vhe knee, and throw both legs back so that the bottom of the legs almost touch the waistband just below the buttons. Then.lay the trous­ ers away, and, if posriblo, place another pair upon them, or better still, a cleanxurfaced l»oard. Change as often as you can if you have several pairs, for trousers worn every day must get out of shape.

The proud bird of Freedom, which usually sits with one foot on tbe Rocky Mountains and the other on the Alleghanies, and its head in Alaska, is careering around the country, seeking for u liberty-pole on which to perch for the whole of the immortal, unenduring Fourth of July, and when I hear liis screams through my back window, how can I think of some commonplace sub­ ject? I do not mind confessing to yon that my soul is faint and weary with dimly defined longings and unsatisfied aspirations. I want to be a procession; and march through the dust of a snare drum and a triauge. I want to hear the orator of the day deliver his sub­ lime, ' soul-thrilling.* original oration, learned from the old “Fifth Beader," and which we have all heard repeated on every anniversary of the glorious day for the last century. I want to revel in the delights of scorched peanuts and nat-in-the-suntwo-hours ice c ream. I want a piece of sponge-cake with an ant in it, a sandwich seasoned with little black beetles, and u piece of lemon pie deco­ rated with a big black spider. I want to sit three hours on a bench without a back to it, with my feet in a mud-puddle and the sun shining on my head, and a man who chews to­ bacco and makes a- target of a tree three feet in front of me sitting just behind me. Aud I shall be di-cansolate if I do not have tho girl who wishes every one to know that she also has a beau on one side of me and her young man on tha other, so that, in their efforts to attract attention, they will whisper together so loudly that I can’t hear tbe choir of two little girls aud a boy sing "America” and “Hail Columbia.” But if all these blessings are granted I shall still be wildly, frantically un­ happy unless I likewise have the small boy and the firecracker. When I leave my delightful seat in the um­ brageous forest, tbe forest primeval, to seek a goblet of rain water with two wigglera and a lemon seed in it, yclept lemonade, I want to feel one firecracker explode in my ear, one on the brim of . my hat, aud a torpedo hit the side oi mv nose just at the critical moment when I have the aforesaid goblet of delectable thirst-reducer inclined to my mouth at an angle of forty-five'degrees.

R. Hoar, of Concord, Me., relates the following remarkable in­ stance of mistaken identity: A man waa tried'for highway rob­ bery nt East Cambridge. Mass.,* some forty-yenrs ago. Ho had no counsel,, belonged to the class of habitual crim­ inals, and as the evidence went in you would have said tho case was hopeless. The person robbed identified him with absolute certainty. Other witnesses, who had known him long and inti­ mately, testified to seeifig him in the neighborhood of the place where the robbery waa committed just before it occurred, and others who knew him oquailjrwell heard his voice at the time of the outcries, and saw him running away from the acene of the crime. As the Government ended the examina­ tion of each witness, the Court asked the prisoner in the dock if he wished to a.-k any questions. To which he uniformly answered: “Yes, one ques­ tion,” and, being told to ask it, it woe each time: • "Are you sure it was me? ” To thh each witness replied: "Certainly; I know it was you.” When the ' Government’s case wa« closed, the Judge asked the prisoner if he had any evidence to offer or wished to say anything to the jury. He had seemed to be very cold and unmoved during the trial, making no comment on his failure to disturb tilt confidence of any adverse witness, aud to the Judge’s question replied : “I should like to coll one witness.” "Call him. then?” said the Judge “ (s Capt.

Giving advice is one thing and feelthe effect* of having it followed is quite - another thing. Prof. Julius Bichbcrg, the well-known ’violinist, nays that he once had as pupil a pioxnfaxhg little fellow of some 8 year*, who would not study. As the boy was •bout to set out with his family for the oouatry. where they wore to pass the summer, Mr. Eichberg asked him what ha should do thera. “Oh." said the boy, “I shall play, •nd pick flowers, and have good tine.” “Yes, but suppose you made up your ■rind to getup an hour earlier every morning to practice ? You would still have time fur sport, and in the fall you would be able to play those sonatas you admire.” The result of the conversation was that Otto flung himself ujian the Deek of his teacher, of whom he was very fond, and promised to do what was asked of him. A few weeks later, as Mr. Eichberg wae driving through tho mountains with bin family, he waa one day de­ layed, so that the hotel where'they were to pass the night was reached at * late hohr of the evening. The accommodationh were poor and the night wa* warm, aud it was near morning before the travelers fairl v got to sleep, and it seemed to Mr. Eich­ berg that he had scarcely closed his •y es before he wasaroused'by the dole­ ful sound of a violin in a room over­ head, where some one was at work upon an exercise with which the listener was only too familiar. lor an interminable hour he tossed about, hoping-that the' noise would •euse; then he rose and dresoed and hastened to tho office of the hotel to protest. “Yes, it is something of a nuisance,” the clerk answered coolly, “but we are used to it here. The boy has played every morning this summer, and it was in the bargain when they took the jrooms that he should be allowed to It was evidently of no use to com­ plain to the clerk, and Mr. Eichlierg relieved his mind by declaring that he should at least like to see the player ef the violin. “Uh, you can see him if you want to," the clerk said. “He has just gone down-stain. You will find him out­ side there.” irritated by the way in which his re­ monstrance had been received, ipd be­ fore the door on the lawn stood a trim little lad with his face turned away. “Are you the boy," demanded Mr. Eichberg, sternly, "that has been making such a noise on the violin for an hour?" The boy turned and looked at him, at first with an expression of fright; then, with a cry of joyous reoognitioa, little Otto flung himself impulsively into his teacher's arms. “Oh, my dear Mr. Eichberg!" he just a* I promised.’ Mj name ia Toot, and I am five years old.

John Maier is of Teutonic extraction, aud he. is a tailor. Whenever he can be devotes his time to catching butter­ flies. This is his hobby. What does he do with them 2 Ho simply chloro­ forms them and frames them by thou­ sands. About the walls of his store are six such collections, averaging about two and a half feet square. Mr. Maier lias certainly done some wonderfot^ork in gratification of his whim. Take any one of hl* collections. It contains at least 500 butterflies of all shapes, sizes, colon, and shades, and these are arranged in circles and crosses, and all sorts of figures. The largest and rarest are placed in tbe center, and the lesser lights around them. AD are placed with wings out­ spread, perfect sjieciinens. During the spring and summer mouths, Mr. Maier uses a net in col­ lecting specimens, and in the fall and winter months he puts io his time climbing trees and obtaining butter­ flies in chrysalis form. To-day, in his store there is a regular butterfly hatch­ ery. He has fully 2,000 cocoons. Thev are divided according to-their size and are now resting peacefully in shallow boxes about a foot square. The boxes are supplied with covers, and in conse­ quence act just as do incubators, and scores of the chrysalides are daily ex­ panding into beautiful butterflies. Alive, they float about the store aud sun themselves until Mr. Maier is ready to put them to sleep. To do this he has a novel arrange­ ment. This consists of two narrow smoothed piece* of wood sloping to­ ward each other in a gentle angle, yet not connecting, a sort of trough separa­ ting them. The whole is about eight­ een inches long aud the trough about half an inch wide. The body of the captured butterfly is placed in the trough, his wings are spread out on the sloping wood on either side, and then the restless little insect is sent on his tong journey to the happy hunting ground of butterflydom by the admin­ istration of just a little chloroform. The wings are then pinned to the wood to insure their holding their perfect form, and when the arrangement is full of dead butterflies it ia relieved of its cargo, and the pretty, gauzy little fel­ lows are tucked upon the background of the coming addition to the collection. Mr. Maier has been doing this sort of thing for six yean.—New Haven Pal-‘ ladium. Wife (timidly)—Charles, can you spare me a little money for a dfe«s? Husband (hurriedly)—My dear, I can't!

If you cannot spare tbe money, please don't feel bad about it. I suppose women are a nuisance. It cost a man almost a fortune to keep one of them!

So long as we don't have to p»y for the damage done to »hoe« and dresses by the sea water we can daily put up with their mischief and notee. Nothing could be prettier for a little boy, at the shorn or inland, than a white flannel sailor suit, with collar* and cuffs striped in pale bine, or in i*ny other be­ coming color, and a genuine sailor's shirt, showing tbe white edge a^roe< bifl throat. If children have good log* they should alwavfl be shown. Of conrse, in a genuine Jack Tar suit this cannot be done, for tbe knwkerrockers must be re­ placed by trousers with spring bottoms. The donblc-breaited reefer jacket should have a deep sailor collar on the outside to give it style and nattinees. These suits should be in navy-blue serge, al­ though for younger boys they m.y be made up very stylishly in white drill trimmed with pale blue,'cardinal or gold. Mothers should try hard to make their children loek thoroughly proeentable. A , litUa maid knows instinctively whether she is well dressed or not. Don't load her down with cloth dresses. Give her a pink and white calico, with a chemisette of white cambric formed entirely of small tucks, or a white embroidered mus­ lin, or a cssbmare of becoming shade made with a pleated vest and dainty lit­ tle xouave jacket.

You must always beer in mind that, as fe .thera don't posaeea the dressy, showy characteristics ot flowers, you must bo correspondingly careful in securing correct and becoming combina­ tions of color. For instance, take a gray straw and trim it with gray oatrich feathers, and then throw iu just a touch of canary in sundry knots of narrow volvet; or a white with the merest brushful of orange to liven up the field of color. -Flower* are getting too common!" ex­ claims tho fastidious Miss Gabriella St. Clair.

Far from it, I saw a very stylish big bat made of black lace straw, with an exlr-iordinary brim, an ! a crown of pale-p nk lisae. The back of tho brim was arched upwards, and the srace inclosed was filled in with a per­ fect bank of pole-pink roses The effect was indeecrinably stunning on tbe girl who wore it. Her skin was absolutelr without yellow, aud her cheeks glowed like blush rosea. It wm a sight to dis­ turb the equanimity of a jreomeUician.

At Pine River Cline made a cache of pemmican in the river, some distance from our track, to be ta^en up on his return. A hole was cut through the ice. them about fifteen inches thick, and a buffslo hide thong having been tied around the bog, and fastened to a itick, it .waa let down into the water, jukt below the ice, the stick being stretched across the orifice. Lumps of ice were thexi piled on the bag ot pemmican, and water poured on ihexn. The temperature of the air be­ ing at the time considerably below tero, the water froze the instant it touched the ice, aud bougd the masses together in one block. Fresh ice being added, and water poured on it. the bole won became filled with a solid mass. This operation was continued until a mound one foot above the frozen sur­ face of the river waa accumulated over llyi cache. As I was returning with Cline to the place where wo had left the carioles and dogs, we observed two of these lagaciouR animals quietly watching our iroceedings from the bank, of the river. 31ine, with au exclamation of auger and surprise; remarked, “Now, if we don’t take care those confounded dogn will try to get at the pemmican to­ night. I know them of old; they served me that tiick once before. Well tie thou tonight." The con­ scious dogs, with tails depressed, started at a gallop back to the carioles when they naw Cline’s threatening mien. In order to prevent the breaking open of the cache by the dogs; which might be the source of great incon­ venience, aud perhaps of suffering to the men on their return, we pushed on for several milex before we camped. Cline counted the dogs after supper, but neglected to tie the spies; having found that none had strayed, he thought they might be trusted, and wrapping himself in his blanket * he toon weut to sleep. We arose tong before daylight, ac­ cording to our custom, and several dogs were soon ascertained to be miss­ ing. After a rapid search iu the neigh­ borhood, Cline instructed two of the men to make a circle round the camp, and examine all tracks by torchlight. In a very short time one of them came bock, flaying that fresh dog tracks p jin ted in the direction of Pine River, (.here we had cached the pemmican. Three or four men instantly started back, and found the dogs busily en­ gaged in scratching at tho cache*. It was so thoroughly frozen that they had made little impression dn the small mound of ice, but no doubt time and perseverance would have enabled them io reach the supplies beneath. “Variet" is the same word as “valet." and each is an offshoot of the feudal Madame is “my lady," and air has been extracted from the Latin “senior" through the French. , “Dandelion," dent de lion (the lion’s tooth), and “vinegar" was onoe vin nigre vsour wine). A '’Villain," Wore the stigma of disgrace wan attached to him, was a laborer on the villa of a Roman coun­ try gentleman. “Biscuit" keeps alive the Latin bia ooctua (twice cooked i. aud a verdict is simply a vere dictim (a true saying). An earl, was an “adder" in the primi­ tive society, while pope in the same as “papa,” and czar and kaiser are both “Ca-sam." Queen at first meant “wife" or “mother," and a survival of its early signification exists in “queen," used nuw only in bad senses. “Jimminv" is a reminiscence of the classical adjuration, O gemini, used by the Romans when thev called upon the twins Castor and rollux to help them. Redingoto is “riding-coat," borrowed by the French from our own language aud returned to us in a new guise with the dressmaker’s stamp of approval. “Slop" shop has nothing to do with slops, as some amateur etymologists have asserted, but means clothing shops, the word coming from Icelandic stopper, a coat. Lord is the Anglo-Saxon halford (loaf ftistributor). The Latin term for “lord" (dominus) has given us "dom­ inie," the old term for preacher, and the same root ia found in “dame." "Roamers" are people who go to Rome to see the Pope, and “sauntcrers" was the appellation bestowed on the religious enthusiasts who made the pilgrimage to the sainte terre— the Holy Land.-—Rehobeth Sunday Herald. _____________________ As a soldier, it is easy dow to see that his greatness consisted largely in the way he received disaster. He proved his nobility in rising above de­ feat, iu wrenching success from failure; in keeping an immovable front against reverse, detraction and infamous abuse.

That this is a free country we have occasion to realize constantly. Many people consider themselves free to an­ noy their neighbors and vex their com­ fort. One keeps a dog that howls all night, so that people residing in the neighborhood are unable to sleep. Hint to him that he ought to shoot the dog or remove it to some remote country seat, andhewlll probably offer to whip you. A young woman with a piano thinks she has a right to pound on it until long past midnight, even though there be a sick neighbor next door. What right has a man with brass lungs and cast-iron throat to parade slowly up and down a streetlined with dwellings, proclaiming at the top of his voice that he is buying cast off hate and old rags, and paying the highest market price for these commodities. Yet this is suffered daily because America is a free coun­ try. You may have no ear for music and absolutely detest a hand-organ, yet O. grinder is free to plant himself in, front of your parlor window, and turn his villainous crank until you are ready to bury yourself in the cellar. What a blessing it Is to live in free country! A MODEL RAILWAY. The Burlington Route. C. B. & Q. R.

Then 1 banded them ' to Little, and said, "See if you think that looks like "Old Line-Back.” He steadied the glass for a moment and then be suddenly dropped it, and called out, A grizzly by jlng! We’ll have some fun now. Bob! Charley! Kid! wake np! here’s a grizzly!” Three cowboys, who were making a late breakfast, jamped up and came rashing out. Catching sight of the •bear, they hurried to the carrol where their horses were tied. These rough and ready riders, as they came out, made a picturesque group of men. Jrtst following Little, the "boss,” came "The Kid,” the youngest, and the pet of the whole "outfit.” The rest took delight in his boyish jolity, and looked on with pride his harem-scarurn venturesomeness. He was sixteen. Texas born and bred, or, as be says, "born in a saddle, and riz in a corral.” he knew nothing but horses and cattle, and like the ancient * Persians, thought that a liberal educa­ tion consisted in being able "to shoot straight, ride a horse and tell the truth. Thon came "Broncho Bob,” so called from bis ability to ride aud conquer the worst bucking broncho. Close to him eamr "Jaybird Charley,r rbo has received his name from partiality for bright colors, and especially for his showy blue scarf and neckties. They were dressed much alike, with broad-brimmed white hats decorated with bullion fringe, blue shirts, with a handkerchief loosely knotted around their throats, and pantaloons tucked into their high-topped boots, over which last, when riding they wore the Mexi­ can calzoneros or overalls made of calf-akin and buckling loosely around tbe leg. They all used tbe heavy bit, tbe high-peaked room}' saddle, and the long sharp-rowelled spurs of the Mexican vaquero. They were rouah and boisterous, and given to horse­ play ard rude raillery, save Charley, who seemed to be ot queerer ways than the rest, and was a man of some education. "Where are your guns!” I asked, as they were about to start. "Gans nothing!” said the Kid; "here’s what’ll do the b’ar’s business for him!” He whirled his lasso around bis head. "Indeed!” I answered, somewhat in­ credulously. "I think yoa’ll find there’s a difference between a grizzly and a Texas steer.” "Beckon there is; but, just.tbe same, we’ll ketch the b’ar with theaa /er riata*. and fetch him into camp alive!” "Honestly, do you really intend to ‘roap’ that bear!” "Right you are’” he shouted, as we dashed away to cut tbe bear off from which he whs distant about half a mile, Tbe big beast appeared not to see us until we were within two huudred yards, when, with a grunt of surprise, he left offdigging his afternoon lunch of crickets and field-mice, and sham­ bled toward the little ravine throng!) which be had come down into the plain. This move brought him, qnarterwise in front of Little, who yelled to bis horse and dashed after him. I, who am ’ not a cowboy, wisely decided that this was none ot my business, and drew mv horse up to an easy lope, contented to watch the fun from a distance. jerked over sideways, and fell prone, but the Kid nimbly cleared himself and alighted upon his feet. Like an automaton, the bear surged ahead, dragging tire pony after him, until his late rider, rushing forward ent the lariat with his knife, and freed bis horse, which scrambled to its feet; puffing and blowing, with his breath almost jolted outof bis rough passage over the ground. . Little and the Kid are now out of tbe fight, but where are the other two? Turning, I saw that Bob’s horse had stepped into a badger hole, and thrown his rider over bis head. But Bob had retained his bold upon the lariat, and a spirited contest began, the horse rearing and plunging and backing away, while Bob tried to catch the bit. eager to mount and be "inat the death.’ Charley, on the slowest and best winded horse in tbe camp, is two hun­ dred yards away, and it begins to look as if tbe bear would^ain tbe gulch and escape. Excited by tbe prospect, and forget­ ting al*1 dictates of prudence, I dashed forward, shouting and swinging my bat. and by a shorter cat to the left succeeded in heading off tbe bear. This feat might well have cost me dearly, for the creature came upon me so closely that I only avoided a collision with him by abruptly turning and bolting from bis line ot retreat. But I bad delayed his flight, nnd Charley now boro down upon bis heals. My rash impulse, I proudly felt, bad mended the bunt, for a moment later the lariat waa around the grizzly’s neck, and Charley’s powerful ponv, setting back on bis haunches, jerked tbe bear oft his feet and landed him onjns back with a thud that almost shook tbe ground. Recovering himself, the grizzly roiled to bis feet and plungtd mightily to get free. But tbe pony gave him □ot an inch of slack, and the lariat, though it stretched and cracked and sang like a fiddle string, stood the strain nobly. Changing his tactics, the bear then bolted toward bis captor; but a touch of tbe heel sent the horse oft at an an­ gle. and as tbe lasso tightened again the grizzly was opce more jerked from his feet, and landed on his side. Again and again tbe manoeuvre wa« repeated, until the bear grew sullen, aud squat­ ting on his haunches seemed to be meditating the next move. Meantime the others had gathered around, but, at Charley's request, did notinterfere. Soon thebear/risingon his hind-legs, seized the lariat with bis fore-paws, and began to pull himself toward his captor Charley’s moat energetiajerks failed to get it from bis grasp. Then spurring hither and thither, he tried to tangle the beast and throw him, but to no purpose. Tbe an imal slowly but steadily shortened the distance between them. If Charley had been alone he would have been forced to cut his lariat to escape; but Little, watching his chance, now dashed in, and bending from bis saddle snatched up tbe loose end of tbe Kid's lanatasit trailed along the ground, knotted it around the pummel of his saddle, and throwing his horse back upon bis haunches, blocked the bears game. . Then Bob, who had succeeded in re­ mounting, dropped a dexterous loop so as to catch an upraised hind foot; and now, like Gnlliver, in the bands of the Lilliputians, the formidable animal was helpless. If he made a frantic rush for Charley, Little's lariat checked him. If be turned on Little, Charley brought him up with a round turn. If he tried to bolt. Bob checked his horse, and the bear found himself helplessly pawing on three legs. If he sulked and hung back.

Read, tho one American novelist of to-day whose touch reminds one of that of Theodore Winthrop—who died much too soon—.the sketch writer, whose humor and pathos are now appreciated aliko in some back county of Montana anil in some Kentish county seat. Read is a native of Nashville, Tenn., is 37 years old, and has been a citizen of Chicago since 1SM7. The following, rtuong other amusing incident* of his career, is related: Several yean ago ho was stranded high and dry in Mem­ phis, Tenn. He liad no monev and he was hungry. There is in Memphis, Indianapolis (Ind.) dispatch: Not less than 50,000 people witnessed tne unveil­ ing of tbe monument of Hooslordom’ii favorite »on, Thomas A. Hendricks. Long before tbo hour sat for the cere­ mony immense throngs of visitors who had bcem pouring into Indianapolis for tho • last twenty-four hours gathered about the square In which tbe monu­ ment Is located. Democratic clubs from all parts of the United States were present Those who arrived first marched and counter­ marched through the city, being joined at almost every corner by new arrivals. As the great line of representative Democrats from the various States paraded the principal streets their ap­ pearance, enhanced by the gayly decor­ ated buildings, was the signal for thunderous cheers and deafening huzzas. At 2 o’clock It was almost impossible to get within 200 yards of the »peakers' stand or tbo monument, so donso was "Jie crowd. Everything was io readi­ ness. however, and'not a hitch occurred to mar the solomufty of the occasion. Mr*. Hendricks, widow of tho dead statesman, pulled the cord, and the mag­ nificent piece of bronze was exposed to the view of the thousands present. Indianapolis never >o ore witnessed such a grand and enthusiastic demon­ stration. and whan tho covering grace­ fully unfurled a cheor went up that was never heard before at Indiana's capital. Tbe entire city was dressed In holi­ day attire. Flags and bunting were flying from every top-mast, and pictures of tho dead statesman were visible In almost every residence and business bouse of tho city. . The visitors numbered three Govern­ ors—HUI, of New York: Campbell, of Ohio, and Francis, ot Missouri. Gov. Francis arrived during tho night and did not leave bls car until morning.

Then no arose, went to a hotel office where paper could lie secured without ex­ penditure. filled several pages of manu­ script, went to the nearest newspaper, sold an article for $5, and ate. Next morning appeaflbd in one of the Mem­ phis journals an account of the most i»lood*thksty squirrel fight of all times. In fact, probably tho only squirrel fight in all history. X later incident may, perhaps, be in­ teresting by its contrast. In recent years, not long ago, the Arkam.2W Traveler was Htruggling for existence in Little Rock. Its editor had married and had a home, blessed already with one child, a balie. The name of Opie Read was beginning to he known. There was a demand for his work, and the return assisted in Ixdstering up the fortune of the paper. One night tue baby, a little girl, who had beet-rill for some days, was counted dying- The father had sat beside the cradle for hours, and was sitting there when a friend came in Oiie foot (and vhat a fqpt Read has!) was rocking the .-ladle and Read, with manuscript upon his lap, was writing funny matter for an Eastern publication. The matter, no doubt, was bright, but'the father’s face was not. The baby recovered. The work of Read is genuine and real. It is American thoroughly, crisp and genuine. It is to other works as maple syrup is to caramels. There is the native fragrance to it. Of Opie Read individually os a man about town it may bo admitted casu­ ally that there is none more popular in tho great, strong city of the West. There is a certain gorgeous aban­ donment of all foot in the story tell­ ing of Opie Read which attracts by its very recklessness. Such fecundity of resource in the manufacture of sit­ uations incident to a telling tale was probably never known before. If Wilkie Collins and Ananias and Mr. Ochiltree and Dick Wintcramith could be rolled into one and ret down in Chicago, Read might have a rival in the clubs. Talking soberly of thia Western au­ thor, whose books have shown such freshness and such force, and whose sketches have attained such popularity both in this country and abroad, it mar be said of hjm curtly and ttuthi'ully that he is a big man, with a big brain and a big heart, who is a figure in literature and who will not become smaller Bathe years pass. “What does ‘tempi* fugit’ mean, George?"

I must tell you how she became so dear to ns, though I am afraid the story will seem im­ probable to some.. Soon after Dickey was weaned sho and a number of her companions at­ tempted to gobble up the dog's dinner. He jumped at the gang and all es­ caped but poor tittle Dickey. She was bitten on tho leg. right in tho join t. Mother ordered her to be killed, but my tittle sister beggedzo hard that the chicken should bo spared and given to her that mother finally consented, and we carried the small cripple off to our play-house io triumph. Then we got some bandages and the bottle of turpentine and soon had Dickey rest­ ing easily in an old cracked bread tray which hud nerved for our doll's cradle. Our little frieuda quickly learned that we hud a new pet, and every day some of them called, bringing fruit, flowers and eake, to inquire after Mum Dickey, and we would sit by her cradle and fan her and talk as gravely about her a-i though she wore a human being. It was over a month before Dicker was able to walk, and when she did walk'it was with a little limp that she never got rid of. It would make my story too long to tell of-.all Dickey’s cunning ways, so I will relate only a few. One day we took some long­ necked squashes, cut eyes, mouth and nose in the head parts of them and dressed them for dolls. Dickey be­ came very jealous df these dolls and would peck at them whenever she found a chance. So my sister got a switch and showed it to her, saying: “Now, Dickey, if yon bite your sister again I will whip you and make> you stand in the corner a long time.” Dickey looked at the switch with first one eye and then the other, replied in a defiant tone. "Caw-car-caw," and went straight to one of the squash ba­ bies and picked it in the eyes. Sister gave her a few slight cats with the switch and pushed her in a corner and made her stay^here. It was not long before Dickey learned what the switch was for, and when she did any mis­ chief, and sister picked it up, riie would run in the corner and stay there, looking very forlorn, until she thought her misconduct had been forgotten. We used to put the saddle on a barrel and play going on horseback to visit each other. My sister would dress Dickey with a white bib and tie, a lit­ tle cap on her head, and say, “Now, Dickey, I am going to take you out with me. but if yon do not behave your- take you again.” Then sister would mount the saddle and Miss Dickey would bop up behind her and such a making believe to ride with great sjieed until they arrived al mr hotioe.

I was going on the war-path and must put on my warpaint— i. e., pretty clothes. I hadn’t a great deal of mon­ ey and that went for material; the making was to be done at home.

One day as I was wandering about the grounds, I saw a squaw, wearing an exceedingly ragged and dirty calico dress, go into the jiost-trader’ii store. In a few minutes she emerged from tho store carrying a roll of gaudy calico in her hand. Beating herself upon the steps, she produced from some region alwut her person, a needle, thread and a pair of rusty scissors. With these she proceeded to manufacture a dress, aud in an amazingly short time it was finished. Then with a dexterous flirt, in fall view of the disregarded specta­ tors, she slipped it -over her head, and after some mysterious sleight-of-hand inside of it, she arose, dropping and leaving the old garment on tho ground, as a snake discards last year's skin.

Fremont, the “Pathfinder.” died yesterday afternoon at the house of Mr. F. IL Thurber. Na SO WestTwentyfffth street, after a short illness. The arrangements for the funeral have not yet been completed. The services will probity be held at St. Ignatius Protcstatrt Episcopal church, of which Gen. Fremont was an attendant. Ever since Congress took tbe action which gave him the rank of major-general on the re­ tired list, Gen. Fremont has been en­ gaged in quiet but persistent literary work. His alm has been to leave be­ hind him or to have published before his death some chapters of the early history of tho civil war, which, ho be­ lieved, would correct tho erroneous opinion which tho country had formed of his participation in It. Ila had fin­ ished a few of these reminiscences but continued at the others unwaveringly, until his friends becamo alarmed at the strain to which ho was subjecting him­ self. Last Thursday, which will be re­ membered as one of the warmest day* in this locality, ho went with some friends Into the country. Ho returned to his home Wednesday, but he was unable to cat and expressed himself as feeling languid. Tho following day the general still felt ill and complained also of having a severe pain across the abdomen. Last Friday night Dr. Morton received a note from the general asking him to call, and upon doing so tho former found his patient confined to his bed suffering from peritonitis. Lieut. Charles Fre­ mont. who was at Slug Sing with hi* sick wife awaiting the fitting out of the new cruiser. Philadelphia, to which he was detailed, arrived In time to be pres­ ent with his father to the Iasi. Gen. Fremont remalnedjconsclons until about 3 o’clock when the collapse began, 'and within nn hour and a half the end came. Dr. Monon said to-day that the General's death, while Its Immediate casiso Wa* peritonitis, was unquestion­ ably hastened by the long anxiety which ho had endurod concerning hl* treat­ ment by tho government. “It seems particularly sad.” said he, “that now. when the General wa* more easily sittiated and had more money than he has had since the tlr*t year* of tho war, he should be taken away from his friend.*.

Thousands flocked to the docks of tbo Union Steamboat company, on the river hack of Market street between Wash­ over tSUJ.lMi). ington and Randolph, and the firn en­ gines were soon In. the vicinity doing good work to prevent the threatened complete loss of the big vessel. Theories differ as to theeaure ef the explosion. Some claim that the com­ bustible cargo of oil stored in hold 5. directly aft the boilers, was tbo cause. Others «l»lm that the water In the bolters had been allowed to run low and they were unable to withstand the strain brought to-bear upon them. At 7 o'clock tho porter. William Pal­ mer of Buffalo, descended Into the hold with several lamps, which be placed about on'the deck that the roustabouts might see to con it ii no their work far Into the night, as the vessel was to haw loft on her return trip to Buffalo this evening. No sooner had Palmer ascended to tho upper deck after joking with' tho men below Ilian tho explosion camo. It Is believed that tho vapor from a few barrels of naphtha communicated with the light of die lamps and did tbe fear­ ful work. Tho noise of tho oxplosiqn was heard nearly a mile distant from tho scene. Immediately following it came a shower of wood and Iron thrown hundreds of feet Into the*air, with here and there the burned and mangled form of some human being plainly visible to the hor­ rified spectators, and then falling into tho murky waters of tho river, probably never to bo soon again. A sheet of flame wrapped the gigantic vessel from about amidships to the stern, shooting a hundred foot up Into tho air. lighting up the neighboring warehouses • and shipping with a dull glow which only added terror to the scene. From the depth of the vessel cotild be heard the roar of the flames and tho occasional explosion of a barrel of oil. while tho forms of half a score of un­ fortunates penned In the fiery furnace could be seen writhing lu agony mid unable to escape. . Tho sight was an awtu! one and the firemen, who made heroic efforts to ren­ der assistance, wero stetftlily driven buck from their poflltlon.

The United State* paid to the tells of Item it re two waja of securing trade. One is to let the container flud you, the rayantiquated, soold that the ancients tbeniselvt-* would abandon it were they to live their lives over sgain. It i« a relic of the time* when the store keeper nrade hi« yearly or seuii-annual trips to the merchantile centers, and tbe wholesaler stood at bin door and hallowed the customer in to look nt his goods, and then sold him a six mon Um' supply upon the strength of filling hie atomacb with solids and his bead . with the exhilaration cf fluids. The second method i<to let the-customer remain at home, and, seeking him there sell him goods upon the merit of qual­ ity—and price. Which method is tbe .more effective >a easily demonstrated by the fact that the latter plan haa al­ most entirely supplanted tbe former. And tbe latter can lie divided into two methods: that of personal solicitation, and that of appeal by written or printedcommunicatioDs. The foregoing ap­ plies specially to tbe wholesale trade, bat is has become, in part, tbe almost invariable practice in securing trade by the retail dealer. That it has become W RPiversol is conclusive proof of its merit. Tho elements of coat and result in the accomplishment of a certain object are the prime considerations, Can I, nays the retailer, obtain the more profit by personal, or circular or newspaper application to the person I hope to make a customer! Personal solicita­ tion, carried out indiscriminately, means the approaching of the proposed customer at tbe time most convenient to the seller, and not at the moment when the wants or the convience of the customer make him most susceptible. If one could know just tbe time that a possible customer wants a certain article, one coaid, by offering that ar« tide, generally effect a sale. Bat the retailer seldom knows the precise time that a person wants a hat, A barrel of flour or a pair of shoes. A circular, sent in lieu of a personal solicitation, is more than likely to greet a man at an importune moment. And both personal solicitation and circulars have the irredeemable defect of being vol­ unteered at a time when the individual may not be hi the mood to receive the desired impressions. No one-takes up a regular publication without the expectation of finding something of interest. The simple act of turning the pages is as positive an example of expectation as is tbe open­ ing of a closet if one is in search of a coat Hence, an announcement in a regular publication has an advantage over any other fohn of cosiness solici­ tation—that of meeting the sougbt-for eye at a time that it is in a mood of j such greeting. Therefore it is well fur the intending advertiser to sift the effect of hit efforts to the ultimate end, so far as possible, before assuming the burden of the < xpense of an unprofit­ able advertising venture. The fact that our ancestors of the time of the Revolution could stand at their store doors and be beard ' all over town, or that our grandfathers found circulars very efficient at a time when newspopera were scarce and of small circu­ lation. does not count for anything now. Methods have changed. It w a prime necessity that an adver­ tisement, to be efficient, must be honest. Why! Because “Honesty is the beat policy." Why is it the best policy! Because dishonesty, in tbe long run, cannot succeed. The business man is in for the “long run.” “This cloak >5, worth ®12.” “This beautiful cashmere95 cts, worth >1.50," may be effective in exciting curiosity, but seldom Jn making a sale. The ordinary profits of trade do not permit of any such reduction. Either the former purchmers have been paying an excessive profit to the dealer—which competition would not perp! it—or there is deception. In very rare cases the retailer can offer such a marked re­ duction for the purpose of closing out an almost unsalable article. Bat if a dealer is constantly offering such ‘•bar­ gains,” one of two things is certain: be is either verging upon bankruptcy, or deceiving the public. I know of an instance where a retail shoe dealer advertised a bargain sale and worked off some >400 worth of goods at a profit of only >2.92. But as his former price for that •400 worth of goods was in tbe neighborhood of only •500, he could Dot have imitated this the “This cloak •5, worth •12" style of advertising without netting a lews of $150 on his •400 of sales. He did a very sensible thing Id disposing of shop-worn goods at cost, but he did it in a perfectly honest manner. There is another style of adyertiaing. ingenious m construction, but equally reprehensible as to morals and df doubtful profit to tbe advertiser. It consists in so arranging tbe wording likes the credit of having penetrated deception. Such an advertiser's money is wasted, ami reputable papers are not encouraging him. ' As before stated, the reader of adver­ tisements Sa ever on the watch for a diatrco to make or save a duller, hence it ill desirable to always keep in mind the matter of prices when preparing an advertisement, if the goods to be ad­ vertised are common neceMities and sold by competing dealers. A customer enters a store and asks to see shoes, for instance. Generally the salesman will 'size up’ the cus­ tomer and offer a shoe, the price of which will meet tbe customer’s expec­ tation. If he makes a mistake tbe in­ quiryJs commonly as to what price of shoe the customer desires, unless tbe. customer, by suggestion, indicates the kind of shoe wanted, by naming the make, leather, style or some other dis­ tinguishing feature. But almost in­ variably tbe desire suggested for a better shoe, or a cheaper shoe, is what controls the salesman’s future action. And such analysis of tbe customer's way of reasoning should be kept in mind in advertising. “Brevity is the soul of wit,” and it is equally an important point in success­ ful advertising. W&all feel sorry, for the man who tells a story in so labored and protracted a way that the point of bis narrative >a lost; we all feel ag­ grieved at Jbe long-winded account of a very simple affair. People will read, a hundred abort articles or paragraphs, touching upon as many subjects, in a single publication, where they will not more than glance at a dozen lengthy statements. -This fact is readily shown by the journalistic tendency to “boil things down.” There is not one man­ uscript of a “news” nature in a dozen that reaches the daily newspaper editor from outside sources that does not have to be “boiled down,” to save the time of tbe paper’s readers, thereby better meeting their wishes and to save space. Write your advertisements without any thought of saving words—just as you would write a letter. Then go over it and mark out superfluous words and cut out statements which you then see will not interest the reader. Then mentally place yourself in the position of a customer, as though your interests were outside of the counter than be­ hind it, and consider how tbe adver­ tisement would appear to you. Look carefully to see whether you have not written in too technical a vein, as a result of knowing all about goods of which your customers has bat a super­ ficial knowledge. Analyze tbe matter thoroughly and see if you have really written for the readers anything more than that you deal in shoes. Have you offered him an attraction in price or noveltvf If you have not, yon bad better try again; yon have simply copied your co rape tor. If tbe adver­ tisement seems satisfactory, it is a good plan to lay it aside for a day of two, for when you again take it up tbe wording may not seem as attractive. For you must not overlook the fact that you are to . pay good money for that advertising, and that the expen­ diture of that money is entitled to a careful consideration as is tbe matter of clerk hire, rent, the accuracy of your freight bill, or any other detail of your business. The difference between efficient advertising and that which is not is the difference between giving money away, and making a profit (on the amount spent for the advertise­ ment). Careless advertising is costly at any price. Allstox C. Ladd. TOO MUCH GOSSIP. One of the worst habits to cultivate is that of believing everything you hear to the detriment of your fel’ow laborer in the Lord's.Vlnyard, or about yourself. Don’t make yourself miserable by giving credence to everything that Is said against you, for no two persons tell the same story alike, and a story usually acquires at least twenty-five per cent additional in fiction by being retold. However, you need not anticipate going through this world without Ixsing slandered to a considerable ex­ tent. There are a great many people who do not know much, and the less some people know the more they gos­ sip about their neighbors. These busybodies do not realize that every man has his own part to act, has his own interest to consult, has affairs of his own to manage, which bls neigh­ bor has no right to scrutinize. But as we have already intimated, It is useless to expect the majority of mankind to attend to their own affaire. Very few have the right kind of a mouth-piece. They use their mouths immoderately. A man’s mouth is made to talk and eat, yet he often hurts himself dreadfully by talking and kills himself by eating. The tougue, like the race-horse, generally runs faster the less weight it carries. think If you will manage philanthropist, an active, earnest and conristent Christian.

Despite the fact that VOUNTIHS FOR THE MARINE.

Everybody agrees that our flag should l»e restored to the ocean. All do not agree as to the means by which that restoration can be brought about. The method pursued by other nations in building up their merchant marine is pretty well known. A few facts may be stated here in detail. For fifty years it has been the policy of Great Britain to compensate owners of steamship lines very liberally for carrying the mails. They pay the Peninsula and Oriental lines, for in­ stance, •1,200,000 per annum for the East India and China service, although at the time the contract was awarded It was stated in the House of Com­ mons that the Norddeutscher Lloyd and Messagerles Maritimes stood ready to carry these mails for one-half or one-third the price demanded by the British company. All. or nearly all. the lines sailing from British ports re­ ceive a bounty from the government. For these purposes England has paid since 1854 t> sum of •158,000,000. Last year France paid to French steamship lines more than 88,000,000, besides her bounty. Italy paid over •3,000,000; Germany, •3,000,000; the Argentine Republic,' •3,000,000: Brazil, nearly 82,000,000; Spain, •1,500,000. Last year England paid out over •1,000,000 for carrying the mails more than she received in postage. Last year the United States paid out •700,000 less for foreign mail service than the foreign postage amounted to. Our Star route postal service costs now about 15,000,000 annually, on routes aggregating 225,000 miles in length, fortable sum of •450,000,000 it is said that the expenditures ordered by con­ gress will leave a deficit of 865,000,000 for the year.

It did not look as though anything had been moved siuce 1 left To be sure a close inspection would have shown that the grindstone by the tool-house door was worn down a little more and that Its handle was not so tight on the shaft as it used to be. The barn doors marked a dec|>er circle as they swung 'round, and now the old sill was warn almost In two. These little things would only be noticed by one looking for them. In the bouse it was just tbe same. There was only a few more wrinkles In mother’s face; only a few, and her1 hair was a trifle whiter, just a trifle. She was glad to see me. 1 knew she would be.

While woman may not have emanci­ pated herself from "political disabili­ ties," she has done so very effectually from the ancient disabilities of salt water bttthinz. The old-fashioned idea w^s that a woman could only be permit­ ted to enter the surf upon oonditiou of making herself such a “guy" that tho men wouldn't look at her. Nona avons change tout cola. Ihe rule which now obtains is, make yourself as charming and at­ tractive as possible within the bounds of decorum. Quite naturally, if you begin by thrnst ug your he»d into an oil silk bag or tying a great straw bat down over your ears, yon mustn't expect to get the reputation of being a naiad queen. A woman pardons n man's embrace in the waltz, she mud overlook bis atten­ tions in tho curf. Miss La Pruderie wonders how women can be so bold as to go into tbo surf in company with men.

However, this question of ai* ia a vary purxliug one now-a-day*. It used to be qnile snfe to judge of * woman's age by her attire, but those days have passed. No woman thinks of asking, "Isn't it too young for me?" 'Others wear it, I may!" is the modern pioceaa of reasoning, and it’s quite sound enough to Justify a tricot bathing suit.

If you drop in at some cottage -where there is to be an informal musicale, or a “mu*, and, lit," as they are called—that fa, music and recitations—you'll be aston­ ished to see so many really elegant toi­ lets scattered through tbe rooms. The last illustration sets forth a very pretty evening costume—a green peau de eygne—with waist and collar band of moss-green velvet From the waist to the bust, a broad band of guipure lace clasps the figure tightly, and, from the shoulder, noir's of 4he lace reich down to tbe mid-ann. There is a slight full­ ing of the silk from the bust to the •honlders; tbe sleeves tight at tbe wrist, gradually increase in size. When these little assemblies at the cottages break up, one is often delighted Sr tho display of artistic sorties de bal. no in particular attracted my attention, in old rose bordered with white ostrich tips. This dainty garment barely reached the elbow, and starting at the shoulder* with large bows, white gauze scarfs, with embroidered effects in silver, were ar­ ranged en bretellee and gracefully knot­ ted at tbe waist. The high Medici dollar, with its white feather border, gave this littlu wrap a charmingly coquettish air. Then; by its tendency to exaggerate tbe width of the shoulders, there is produced such a complete reversal of nature's original scheme thni the i>oor men fix their eyes upon these animated wedges of humanity with a sort of helpless look of bewilderment.

The Inebriety of coffee, if not as dangerous to others, may be as harmful to Its subject as alcholism, ?nd generally leads to it. Dr. Mendel's studies have covered Germany, but he has given special observation to the great work­ ing force In tbe gun factories at Essen, where wages are high and employment uninteruptod, and a [comparative de­ gree of luxury is within the reach of all. z can Company, numbering over 1,000 men, Including hired natives, and the latest news from the company is that on May 27th they were in camp on the southern edge of Matabeleland wait­ ing for their Maxim guns to overtake them before venturing among the fierce soldiers of the King of Matabele­ land. • It will be interesting to hear If they had to use those Maxim guns. When the last despatches were written, 15,OOOof King Lotengula's soldiers, armed with all sorts of savage weapons and in a great state of excitement over the proposed invasion of an armed party, were within a few miles of the expe­ dition. The King, months ago, gave the company permission to hunt for gold In Mashonaland. But savage promises are not always made to be kept, and the last letters say the Klug has flatly refused to pemit the expe­ dition to cross the terder. on account ot the excited condition of his people. The Matatelesare Zulus, who long ago left their country and founded a new kingdom. They have an army of 2D,000 warriors who are the terror of the whole country between the white professions and the Zambesi. The whites must pass through theircounry to reach Mashonland, which is a part of King Lotengula's possessions. The King transferred its gold mining priv­ ileges, for valuable considerations, to the British company. He is sorry he did It, but he will And before he gets through that he had tetter endure the Invasion and make all he can out of it for the army of which he is so proud will prove no barrier if the whites Lhink they see quartz worth crushing behind it. The people of Essen drink Immense quantities of coffee, bringing the aver­ age for a large portion of them up to a pound a week, many men taking much more than that. The result is a form of neurosis. in which the nerves are disturbed Ina degree and manner ap­ proaching that W'hich accompanies delirium tremens. Intoxication is followed by gloom and sleepiness, and about all tbe disorders characteristic of acute nervous derangement, added to a hate for work. As in the use of alcohol or opium, temporary relief can be had by more and stronger coffee, by tinctures of coffee formed by crush­ ing the terries in spirits; but the^ cure of a confirmed coffee drunkard is next to unknown, unlesMhe final change to pure alcoholism be counted as a cure. Troubles of this nature are said to be much more widely spread than one would think from the immediate evi­ dence. Most of the stages of exces­ sive coffeeism are too obscure to be ap­ ! parent.

Tlie announcement is also made that two of the Sultan's Ministers have re­ signed—the Minister of Finance and the Under Secretary for Foreign Af­ fairs. Turkey has been remonstrated with not by the Brittfsh government only, but by the governments of Ger­ mania and Austria as well, in regard to the neglect of duty and misuse of power by the authorities In Armenia. It appears further that the govern­ ment of the Sultan has been arreused from iu lethargy, and that prompt action has been taken. The Governor otErwsroum and the Governor of Van. a place about one hundred and fortyfive miles southeast of Erzerotrtn, have both been Dismissed from their posts. It will be well for the Sultan if he shall succeed in maintaining order and ef­ ficient government Iu Armenia. If he does not, Russia will find the oppor­ tunity for which she has teen waiting, and the Ottoman Empire will be rob­ bed of another slice of territory. It seems certain that there has been a great deal of concealment of the truth by the Spanish authorities in regard to the actual ravages of cholera in that country. Neighbors were less anxious to get at the facts so long as the weath­ er was only moderately hot. Now that the thermometer is pointing away up In the nineties the feeling begins to prevail that colera is a dangerous neighbor. It has become abnormally hot in Austria, and a cable dispatch from Wien, tells us that colera has re­ appeared In thirty-one cemmunes in Valencia and Alicante.

One of the deadlies serpents of tbe, tropics js the fer-de-lance, of which there are at least eight varieties. Lafc&dio Hearn says that the reptile is of precisely the color which will enable it to hide among tbe foliage or the roots of trees. Sometimes it is of a bright yellow, and one can scarcely distin­ guish it from the bunch of bananas within which it coils. Again, It may be black, or yellow­ ish brown, or of any hue resembling tropical forest mould, old bark, or de­ composing trees. The iris of the eye is orange, with red flashes, and it glows at night like burning coal. . In Martinique, the fer-de-!ance is ab­ solutely lord of the forest by day, and at night be extends his dominions over parka and public roads. The only safety lies in remaining at home after dark, unless one lives in the city itself, and it is always dangerous to enter the forest even at noon, without any ex peritfneed escort. At any moment a branch, a root, a bunch of pendent fruit may take life, writhe, spring, and strike death to tbe heart. .One creature, however, has no fear of the fer-de-lance. Horses tremble at sight of it; dogs whine and shiver. The hen attempts to defend ber chick­ ens. and the pig offers more successful combat, but It is the cat who fights tbe monster most undauntedly. The author of “A Midsummer Trip to the Tropica” describes such an encounter. Tbe cat, upon seeing a snake, at once carries her kittens to a place of safety, and then boldly advances to the en­ counter. She will walk to the very limit of the serpent's striking range, and then begin to feint, teasing him, startling him, trying to draw his blow. How the emerald and topaz eyes glow then! They are flames. A mo­ ment more and tbe triangular head, hisainp from the coils, flashes swift as if moved by wings. But swifter still the stroke of the armed paw that dashes the horror aside, flinging it mangled in the dust Nevertheless, pussy does not dare to spring. Tbe enemy, still alive, has almost instantly reformed bis coil. She is in front of him, watching, vertical pupil against vertical pupil.

Prof. Kelly and Dr. VanRensaelaer, of the house staff, performed the operation. They gave him chlorfonn and kept him under Its In­ fluence for four hours and a half. They first cut down through tbe chin, sawing the bone in two and hying open tbe lower Jaw on both sides clesr back to the cars. They took out all the glands that could in any way have become affected by the poison and removed tbe entire tongue and palate. In splitting open tbe jaw they broke the muscles that hold the Jaw in place and control its movements! In place ot them they substituted two Huie silver hinges* which work exactly like a spring door hinge. “I can open my mouth, but were it not for the little spring binges I could never close It again,” says tbe colonel grimly. Where they sawed' the chin In two they brought it together again and made it all fast with stiches of silver wire. “I have lost ail sense of taste or sme'l and I’lj never have another square meal,” and here the colonel sighed deeply. “Have the doctors any theory or explanation to offer regarding your ability to speak I” asced tbe reporter. “No.” replied the colonel.

BRIGHT’S DISEASE LOST ITS VICTIM. Under tbe date <4 July 18lh, 1S38, Mrs. Laura A Kempton, of West Rutland, Vermont, writes: “We are certaiu that only for Dr. David Ken­ nedy’s Favorite Remedy, <4 Rondout N.

We had tried in vain other means, but tbe Fovorite Remedy came in time to save her life.” The company marched so poorly and went through tbe drill so badly that the captain, who was somewhat of an excitable nature, shouted indigently al the soldiers: “You knock-kneed, splay-footed galoots, you are not worthy of being drilled by a captain.

In any large city men may be seen going from saloon to'saloon with large tin cans, into which they empty too stale quart or two of beer left in each keg by the landlord. The observer of this rather familiar street scene may suppose that this novel “rusher of tho growler" is collecting material, for a spree of his own.

Not even in thia most humble of all callings has the boasted “lord of creation" a monopoly, but is obliged to divide the business with his weaker but more tem­ perate and industrious sister. The term “rag-picker" is a generic one, and includes the collecting of any and all things that his patron and pro­ moter, the junk-dealer, will buy. From gutters and alleys he picks pa­ per, pieces of cloth, old shoes, tin cans, bits of metal and fragments of coal.

It is foolish to expect a husband, who han entire access to his wife’s society, to make the same sacrifices to be with hflr fbr an evening that the lover makes, who is only admitted to the loved one's presence for an hour.

A jewel may Ih> very precious to us, even if we do not always wish to wear it in sight and gaze upon its brilliancy. Some women seem to marry with the idea that “wife” means "in’terferer." They set themselves to work at once to revolutionize tho man's whole life, and demand attentions which, if they ex­ ercised a little gentle patience, would be gladly given. I have seen wives who laid plans for almost every hour of their husband’s leisure time. ’Now, no man like* thia. It is natural for them to be tho planners and directors, and the wife w h<x in all ways strives to ca­ ter to her husband’s tastes and comforts will find him planning for her happi­ ness ere long. Nothing touches a man of any feeling quicker than to see that his wife yields her wishes to his, and gives up with ready sweetness in small matters. Pay attention to any wish of his, ao matter how trivial and foolish it may seem to you, and respond to his requests cheerfully, not sullen!v, and’ in a little while yon shall find him the most reasonable aud thoughtful of men.

John Smith, Governor of Virginia, in hie history relates that Str George Bommer was shipwrecked noon tho Bermudas, or Bommer Island, in 1612, and that four years later, when Daniel Tucker arrived to take command as Governor’ of these islands, there was found in circnl.tion a certain kind of bra*a money, with a "hogge" on one side. Tbo islands were overrun with wild animals of thia breed, aud its effigy seems to have been accepted a* the nat­ ural and proper symbol. Tbe Sommer Island "brazir or "shilling" has' on one aide a hog. of what is now known as tbe "razor-back" specie*, tn the center, with "XII." above the figure, and.those are sur­ rounded with a beaded circle; exterior and around this is the legend. “Bommer Island."

The sixp-nce of Sommer Island is about half tbe size of the shilling, and an exact counterpart of the larger coin, with tho exception that VI., instead of XII., surmount* tbe swine symbol. Only three of the shillings and one sixpence are known to be in existence. Tbe shil­ ling piece has been imitated. Of course, none of tho genuine coins are in the market; they are priceless in value.

Ignoring the grant made to tho State, these lands were put upon the market, grtmted to railroad companies, to homesteaders, and disposed of exactly in the same manner as lands were wifere the title was undisputed. Courts in other States and the United States Court had decided, in similar cases, that the orig­ inal grants carried the title,* and that the Government had no right to withhold tho patents because of the discovery made in making the seeonB survey.

Whether mil tary ecpionage would be extended to diplomatic dispatches sent ^y an officer of a fiietully government is not known.

He went into the wbod-shud, took off his overalls and boots, and after trying the door in vain, took a key from his pocket unlocked the ‘door and entered the house. “Mri!

Nothing bad been left to be eaten cold or warmed over, nothing was in course of prepar­ ation for the next meal. Tbe man gazed at the raw food, requiring so much time and effort to render it edible, with au almost helpless sigh, but never­ theless went to work. He peeled some potatoes, sliced them thin, and put them to boil, placed some stony slices of bread in the steamer over tbe po­ tatoes, fried some bacon, and having cleaned the coffee put of a week’s ac­ cumulation ot grounds and scum, care­ fully measured a spoonful of coffee 'into it and set it to boil on the stove.. It was curious to watch his neat, pre­ cise movements in setting the table, so out of keeping were they with his dis­ orderly wurroundtngs. . When his supper was ready be sat down ard ate it, but slowly and with­ out mur h relish. His own cooking did not possess tbe zeet of noveltv, for the absence of his wife from home was a thing of verv frequent occurence. Her present defection was the first, how­ ever, since thev bad moved to Angell Avenue three weeks l«efore. As he finished bis repast the door opened and Maria walked in. She was about the same age as her husband, bnt looked vounger, being one from whom ibe cares of life slid easilv. Her figure waa tall and straight, her face sallow and lighted by great black eves. “You here alreadv, Rube!- Land sakes, I’d no idee ’twas so late!” She spoke in a tone of gav apology, but the man’s face did not brighten or lose its look of beayv'uit'couragement. She went on briskly. "And vou’ve got supper all readv for me! It smells awful good. 1 can’t make do such coffee as tins. Reach me tbe Jnead,— wbv, I declare it's as soft as fresh baked.” “Mri. you’va been gyratin' round agin,” be said, in tones solemn with ac­ cusation. “Well, vou see, Rube,” she explained “it did seetu ao kind ’o poky stoopin’ over that there tub.

At this juncture poor Maria, thus suddenly confronted with,her own misdeeds, began to cry piteously.

It is genially known that in 161s Captpin John Smith, of Pocahontas fame, made a trip to wbat is now known as Gardiner. Me., but there was au in­ cident that occurred during that visit that is known by very few people. Tho Calvassas were presided over by » chief having headquarters at what ia now Gardiner, known as Cahassa. who hnd a daughter named Selioois, famed among her tribe for her beauty and grace. She was unfortunately smitten at once with the gallant Captain, who was. by the way, the first white man to visit these parts, ana who was re­ ceived with great cordiality. Smith bad /with him a lieutenant .named Hun'i, who was of rather a quarrel­ some disposition and prone to mutiny. When the time came for the party of whites to depart, Hunt's mutinous spirit showed itself, and with a small party of followers he left Smith, going in an opposite direction. His party took with them as captives. several of tbe tribe of Cabassas. The chief, considering the whites one party, by a groat mistake followed Cant. Smith’s loyal band, which camped that night alx>ut four miles from the present location of Gardiner, in an easterly direction. Seebois. thinking to warn tbe Captain, hurried on before the party of enraged Indiana, but arrived too late, for as she arrived at the camp the first volley of arrows was delivered. Thinking to save Smith, she fled to him, threw her arms alx>ut his neck, and in that position received an arrow in the breast that caused instant death. The chief palsied at the accident, and ordered hostilities to be ceased. This allowed Smith an oppor­ tunity to explain that it was the other party that had perpetrated the kid­ naping. After a sorrowful return and the burial of Seboois near the Randolph Church, the party of red men went in search of Hunt. He was overtaken near Norridgewock, and his band ex­ terminated to a man. Capt. Smith had the martvred Seboois to thank for his life, forWhe-arrow that retched her heart was meant for him. The grave of Seboois is unmarked; in fact, its exact location is unknown.—Lew i* ton Journal.

I we watch the rude, relent- ’billows chas­ ing each other up the sandy slope, each vying with its predecessor in tem­ pestuous fury, sublimity and awful grandeur, the low sough, the moan, the requiem, murmuring ceaselessly uf the storied past. Oh, but what a story the sea can tell! Kingdoms, empires, and monarchies lie buried beneath those watery wastes; continents have appeared, nations and-races of man­ kind have disappeared since _ the Al­ mighty fiat went forth bidding the sea be calm. With all the grandeur and sublimity of light and sound above, those be­ neath, if seen, would, eclipse them by far, making everything we have seen insignificant in the extreme. Tho sea does not give up ita dead. Merchant­ men and men-of-war, once tbe pride of nations, lie there, their sailors and nav­ vies standing at their posts of duty or off watch, in the cold embrace of those lethean waters, fish, . reptiles, and hideous monsters their companions, and beautiful grasses their sepulture. ' Who has not stood by and seen a steamer clear, when cheer upon cheer rent the air. without the heart swelling high in the bosom. Many of these floating nalsoes go down from their docks, blessed by hundreds of wav­ ing adieus, but never return to re­ ceive the wanderer’s'greeting. Strong men and beautiful women went on voy­ ages into those voiceless abysses, and no messenger has returned to whisper a syllable of their fate. Oh, the insa­ tiate maw of this beautiful sea, this vast waste that has engulfed fleets, ar­ gosies, and squadrons, and rendered no account of the destiny to which she has consigned them. ' The unre­ sponsive defiance may well be chal­ lenged, the secret depths be dared. Dear reader, bruoh up and brighten your imagination and let us journey awhile beneath these majestic waters. The riddle of the deep blue sea may thus be solved. We will journev deep, far below the raging billows,'and bring to terra firms some tidings of this un­ discovered country, this unknown realm. Look at yon porpbyrv cliffs and see how incessantly the clashing waves break over them, these angry waves, livid with apparent passion at the obstacles nature places before them in the form of those rocky atiands and bluffs. Another and an­ other swell, each in its rage, follow quickly, only to be broken along the shore.* Away beyond and aliove us come the swells; higher and higher they raise theix,. crested heads, like a caravan of breathing mountains, each giving its mite to crush the resounding rocks. We catch faint glimpses of the surface and see it coVered with masses of foam, moving with a fury that evi­ dences the pitch of excitemefit at the thought of which we may well stand and tremble. At the same time we are transfixed and enchanted by the acene. On the sloping banks where we stand strange forms of vegetable growth appear; some of them have roots. others have none; some grow with their petals firmly adhered to the stem, otters are attached to larger Santa, and, like the mistletoe, draw eir sustenance, whatever this mar be, from the more thrifty fellow. We see modified forms of these plants strewn along the shore above—strange • forms, beautiful forms, which are a thousand-fold more so when growing in their gardens beneath the surface. :r mania pervadinb until our feet touch the garden* «f tht marvelous ulvn--the black nnd th« green nlva>—rooted in the restful mud. atretching their graorfalkngthuupw ard toward the surface, where the stornu are raging wffii all their relentleaa fury and the stimulating influences of the sunlight.

All » beauty, all if splendor, yet all is gloom.

Every boy of us in the -illage knew Uncle Jerry "Crawford. He was a dried-up old mau, and never seemed to get any older, although always com­ plaining. The form of salutation’ was invariably this: “Hello! Uncle Jerry!" “Yaus, yass." “How you feeling?" • "Wretched, wretched, thank ye." I’ve heard that at least oue thousand times, and never knew a deviation but once. A drummer who used to come tip occasionally from St. Louis got on to’it, and one day when a dozen of us sat on tbe steps of the drug store Uncle Jerry was seen coming up the street. “Isn’t that old Crawford?" asked the drummer, as he shaded his eyes with his hand. “Yes." . • “He’s the man who always replies that he’s pretty well, praise God ?” “Oh.no. He is the man who always replies that he’s wretched, wretched, thank ye.” " “I may be mistaken, but I don’t think so." “Of course yon are.” “ Well, I hate to give in. I’ll bet $20 that when he comes up and yon ask him how he is he'll reply as I said.” There were seven of us there, and all we conld raise was $16. We hand­ ed that out fast enough, however, and it had been covered when Uncle Jerry came along. We were on the grin as the drummer called out: “Hello! Uncle Jerry!" “Yass, ya«s.” “How you feeling?” "Pretty well, praisq God!" replied Unde Jerry, as he passed on. It was about two minutes before wc boald get breath, and then the drum­ mer had gone with the stakes. An hour later I asked Uncle Jerry what he meant by such conduct, and he re­ plied: “Took me all day to learn it, and the' feller gin me two big dollars.”—A'etc York .Sun. at a wagon. ■This is a hard set," as lain egg.

If the baneful effects of tte lotteries were confined to the States that gave tbe com­ panies corporate power? and a license to conduct a business, the citizen* of other States, being powerless to apply legal remedies, might clear themselves ol re­ sponsibility by tho use of such moral agencies as were withip their reach.

Il would be practically impossible for these companies to exist if the public mail* were once effectually closed against their advertisements and remittances. The use of tho malls by these companies Is a prostitution of an agency only in­ tended to serve purposes of legitimate trade and a decent social Intercourse. It Is not necessary, lain sure, for me to at­ tempt to portray the robbery of the poor and the widespread corruption of public and private morals which are the neces­ sary Incidents of these lottery schemes. “The National Capital has bmohm a sub-headquarters of the Louisiana Lot­ tery Company, abd its numerous agents and attorneys are conducting here a busi­ ness Involving probably a larger use of the mails than that of auy legitimate business enterprise In the District of Columbia. There seems to bo good rea­ son to believe that the corrupting touch of these agents has boon felt by tho clerks In the postal service and by some of tho polico officers in the District. Severe and effective legislation should be promptly enacted to enable the postoffice department to purge the malls of all let­ ters. The letter of the j>ostmaster-general, which I transmit herewith, points out the inadequacy of the existing stat­ utes and suggests legislation that would be effective. It may also bo necessary to so regulate tho carry­ ing of letters by tbe express companies as to prevent the use of those agencies to maintain communication between the lottery companies and their agents or customers in other cities. It docs not seem possible that there can be any di­ vision of sentiment as to the propriety of dosing the malls against these compa­ nies, and I therefore venture to express the hope that such proper powers as are necessary to that end will be given to the postoffice de part men L “Bknjamin Harbison. no friction nt the beginning of work Sept. 1. eruged a gain of 7.60 per cent; force payment from Comanche County of 9116.738.

State. There are two men who, perhaps, •re identified with the history and in­ terests of Texas more than any others, and who are venerated by every resi■dent of fhe State—Sam Houston and Davy Crockett. Both were moat ec-" oentric; both lived to achieve success; •nd the death of Crockett, at the siege of Alamo, involved a tragedy that ■marks a -page in American history. Texas is full of the remarkable history of these two men. Conversing with Captain A. Faulkner, general passen­ ger agent of th«> Houston and Texas Central Bailroad, I learned from his tips a number of interesting incidents ooncerningAJeueral Houston. Houston, long as he lived in -public life, never paid too much attention to the demands of fashidn and the rule* ■of etiquette. He had been President of tbe Republic twice, its Governor twice, United States Senator once, and Governor oi Tennessee, and had Ih-cj known and recognized u the chief of the Cherokees. Whan Pteaident of Texas, and living at Austin, the capital of the republic, a log cabin -was his office and bis home. I am told that while he was taking a bath in a tub .one day. in hi* log cabin, the French Minister called to establish ' friendly relations with the President jf the new republic.

One of these mills consumes the timber of fifty acres of land ]>er day, and st these two places the longleaf yellow pine forests of Eastern Texas and Western Louisiana fire util­ ized for the manufacture of an enor­ mous output of lumber for both foreign ami domestic consumption. The grain of this long-leaf yellow pine, when planed aud polished, shows most ex­ quisitely. and iu many of the houses where panels of this wood have been employed the finest effects have been produced. produced, The cheapness of this tim­ ber land, land. ranging from $'» per acre upward, has attracted tho atten­ tion of investoni and speculat­ long thfse ors, and before loi '’ 'tim’ inctease in ber lands must greatly ----------value. The lumber interest here has develoiMxl a decided growth, and Orange and Beaumont -have started on a Ixwm that is still in its infancy. The outlet to tl>e ocea&’a commerce that will be afforded these places through Sabine Pass, now being conatrncted, has added to the real estate excitement, and greatly appreciated prices.

' The Taxaa Cowtxiy, Cowboy life bas in.tbe last few yean lost much of ita roughness, says a writer on Texas in Harper'e Magatine. Tbe cattle barons bare discharged moat of the men who drank, and have frowned so persistently upon gambling that little of it is done. Gards and whisky being put away, there is small temptation to disorderly conduct; bo it is only when they reach some large city, and are not on duty, that they in­ dulge in a genuine Kpree. On the ranches kept under fence they have little to do when not on the drive or in branding-time, tho cattle being all nafely inclosed. But they must take their turns at line riding, which raeunn a close inspection of the fences, and the repair of all breaks and damages. Where night overtakes them, there they sleep, staking their horses and rolling tbemsolve* in their blankets. | These rides of inspection take days to accomplish, for there are ranches in : Texas which extend in a straight line l over ReveDty-ttve miles. Those ranches which are not kept under fence neces­ sitate more work. The boys must then ’•'-op their cuttle in sight, while allow­ ; them to graze in every direction, uniat flee that none in the many thou­ sand stray beyond the limits of their own particular pastures. They go then in parties scattering over the territory, for they must cover hundreds of thou­ sands of acres in a day. It is not a life of hardship, aud pays well enough. Even thing is furnished to them free, and of the very best, and they are paid besides 830 per month. Eash party stays out from two to three wack* at a time, but they take with them tho finest of camp wagons, with bed* and bedding, cooking utensils, the best of groceries of ail kinds, and ai excellent a cook as money can em­ ploy. The prairies arc full of game and their ritfes are ever handy. 'lhe life is free, fascinating and |>eculiarly health ।. These men are exceedingly chival­ rous to all womou; this seems*to bu a trait born in them, as much a part of their moral nature as it is of their phys­ ical to have small feet, for it is sddom that a genuine Texas cowboy can be found who lias not the distinguishing mark of a handsome foot, and his boots are to him all that the sombrero is to a Mexican. Ho will deny himself many pleasures, he will g > without iK-oat, and be seen ia the most dilapidated attire, but his boots must be of th© best and most boiutiful make that the country can afford; high of heel and curved of in­ step, a flue upper sod thin sole, fitting like a glove, and showing the handsome foot to perfection. Take the cowboys a* a class, they are bold, fearless, aud generous, a warm­ hearted and manly set, with nothing small, vicious, nor mean about them, and Texas need not lie a-dismed of the brave and t-killful riders who traverse the length and breadth of ber expan­ sive pratt ios.

High and low, rich and poor, joined in the reckless game. During my professional connection with- railways I endured three weeks* misery. It was not defeated ambition; it was not a rejected suit; it was not the hardship endured in either office or field; but it was the possession of cer­ tain shares which I purchased in one of the Hues then afloat. The share list of the day proved tho winding sheet of my peace of mind. I was haunted by the Stock Exchange. Then, as now, I loved the blue span of heaven; but when I found myself re­ garding it morning after morning, not with the fresh joy which, in my days of innocence, it had brought me, bnt solely with reference to its possible effect, through the harvest upon the share market, I became at length so savage with myself that nothing re­ mained but to go down to my brokers and put away the shares as an* accursed thing.

Very soou the beach seemed to nwurm with Moving objects which wo could not yet distinguish. A number < f long, black objects left the shore, and when through the breakers they stopped at the small craft outside. Now we could see that the negroes ■were being transferred to the boats outside the breakers from canoes which ran through them, with from four to six in each. As the sloops were filled they sailed for the ship, and, ladders having been arranged, tlie negroes were soon coming over the ship's side. As each one reached tho deck he was given a biscuit and sent below. It seemed slow work at first, but as the canoes were noon all launched nnd rushing through the surf it presented a busy scene. The sloops were now flying to and from us. and a great number of negroes were already on board at 2 p. m. The lookout at the masthead shouted. "Sail, ho! away to the southward." From the deck we could see nothing. A danger signal was hoisted at once to hurry all aboard taster. In a short while we could see from the deck a little black spot. Smoke! .A cruiser! Another signal, a blood led flag was hoisted informing those ashore of the kind of danger. If possible the bustle ash a re was increased; our own boats were lowered and they aided materi­ ally. ’The approaching vessel had seen tw and the volume of smoke in­ creased. She could now be seen, and was recognized as the Vix^n with the naked eye. A signal from shore, that a very few remained, was hoisted, another hour passed, t nd the vessel was certainly within throe miles. Our boats were recalled, and the entire fleet of sloops soon sailed toward us. Our boats were hoisted, and lines thrown to the sloops now alongside. The Vixen now changed her course slightly and fired a solid shot, which passed to leeward of us beyond. At this the Spanish captain cried out, “Let go!" The pin bolding the staple in the anchor chain was cut and the chain parted. Sail was hoisted rapidly, the negroes in the sloops climbed over the shin’s side, and ax the sloops were emptied they were cast adrift with their single occupant, a Krooman.

It appear* that s party of ladies and gentlemen was enjoying an excurjion on the river when tbe strug­ gle# of a diohbiug mau wore observed at a certain number of points off the lee bow. Hasty arrangements were perfected to rescue him. when the ladies objected. They pointed out very properly aud forcibly that tbe man was devoid of apparel; that bi* ■ppearsDce on board would be a gross violalion of the customs and habita of good society, and would tend to cheapen a rule of decorum which is positive in ita expression-. The argu­ ment was so prolonged and heated that the man was going down for the last time, when a coarse, brutal deck-hand with no regard for polite amenities, threw him a rd'pe, and he was hauled on board, whereupon the ladies fled blushing to the cabin. While offended modesty will be glad to learn that the fellow was carried off to jail and fined >5 and coats for going in swimming without clothes and with­ out a license, it is plain that something must be done to meet such emergencies in -future. A naked man in s gilt frame may be a work of art in a salon or a picture gallery, but he is not a suitable subject for a select evening party in tbe higher walks of life. At the tame time It seems a pity to allow a human being to lose his life merely because his clothes happen to be where ho can not conveniently get at them. There ought to be a way of arriving st a compromise satisfactory to all par­ ties interested. -For instance, it might ba possible to lasso a mau in such a wav as to keep his head above water, and in this condition to tow him along until the ladies have retired to the cabin or until sufficient clothing has been provided to make him present­ able. Of course it is not pleasant to be pulled through the water like a cat­ fish. but it is infinitely preferable to drowning, and the inconvenience# are assuaged by the reflection that a sol­ emn social duty is being punctiliously observed. • Ingenious minds may in time con­ trive u better means of meeting this difficulty, but at present the tow-line appear# to be the Only hope. And it will be an ugrvcuble reflection to the ladies as they sail pleasantly down the river that the gentleman in tow is fully alive—if he is alive at all—to the conservation of the proprieties.

It has quite as much expression as a fan, of which Ad­ dison once said so many delightful things. No doubt some ingenious per­ son will ere long write a “Parasol Manual” in which a regular drill will be taught. For Instance, twirling It rapid­ ly will signify, “You embarass me;" holding it down over the face, “Imagine my feelings;” letting It fall back of the head, “Go on, don't be afraid;” folding it up, “The Interview Is ended, sir." carry­ ing it handle outward. “Follow me;" point outward, “Take care, we're watch­ ed," etc. .

As may be expected. her parasol mutches her costume, for in no way can you more readily prove that you are to the “man­ ner born" than in having perfect har­ mony In your toilet—dress shoes, hot, parasol, gloves—making up a color sym­ phony.

The following sublime poem was written forty years auo by John Bollin Ridge, an accomplished Cherokee In­ dian, known to Ida tribe as Checoquat-a-law-ny, or Yellow Bird. His father. Governor John Ridge, waa the reigning chief of the powerful Chero­ kee Nation, a man of wealth, culture and refinement, and governed his tribe with firmness, moderation and wis­ dom. Oh Jupe 22, 1839, Governor Ridge and his venerable father, Kanun-ta-kla-ge, a distinguished orator and warrior, were assassinated by the adherents of John Boss, a rival chief­ tain,. who seized the supreme power and ruled the Cherokee confederation until his death, which occurred about tho clo<e of the late civil war between the States. Yellow Bird, a ho was the trusted friend and companion of my boyhood iu the golden mountains of California, tony years ago, was, like his gifted father, a man of genius, refinement and culture, a gentleman by intuition, a scholar br education, and one of na­ ture’# sublimeat poets. - Hia numerous poems, wjiieh always met with dis­ tinguished popular favor, take the highest rank among tho brightest gem#'preserved in English literature.

On the underskirt there are tied rows of pale pink feathers. The hat going with this costume Is very charming, a Tuscan straw, with folds behind and white feathers in front. The. sunshade, too, is extremely pretty, being made of maize #llk gauze with black silk chenille zig­ zagging along the path of the ribs and gathered In a bow at tlie ferrule. The handles of parasols this season are ornamented with frulta and flowers in the most bizarre fashion, but no mat­ ter how fantastic there Is always care taken to maintain that necessary har­ mony with the costume. It Is not an uncommon.thing to see a gnarled stick enddn a .bunch of red poppies or ox-eyed daisies with long, straggling stalks. Still another style suggested Aaron’s rod. for pink and white daisies appear to* have sprouted from the handle.

These handles will bo hollow and contain all sorts of “surprises" from a flacon of salts to a fan. a lorgnette or a powder puff. Another novelty will consist of oxydlzed silver mountings made to order and bearing your crest or monogram. These mountings will ap­ pear on your pocketbook, handles of your parasols, clasps of your cloaks, buckles of your shoes, handle of your lorgnette, cover of your card case, etc., etc. It will be an expensive luxury, but a refined one.

But her sister is a woman with much force of character, »nd succeeded in exacting a promise ihat this religious method would be fried.

Here is one of his anecdote*;; “Foxie waa very fond of tallow, r~ ’ I had great trouble to keep him h eating up my small stock. He knew my dixpoaition to guard it as well an I knew hia to steal it; so it waa an cq>en strife of wits between us. Shortly after rising one Bunday morning my eye waa caught by his unusual atti­ tude in the shop, the door of which I had thrown open. He wan standing in the middle of the room, with his eyes glaring st a lump of tallow lying on my bench. i$nd glancing from time to time toward a lamp-chimney set onthe table near my lied, where I was dressing at tho moment, though how the tallow and the chimney stood re­ lated to each other in his brain I could not imagine. Accordingly, 1 watched him. m "Suddenly he made a spring at the gloss chimney, breaking it iuto one thousand piece#, and instantly, before 1 could withdraw my attention from the craxh and ruin, sprung for the lump of tallow, which he seized in his mouth and flew out of the door, run­ ning away at the highest speed of which his obesity admitted. He had thrown his glass-dust in my eves, a while I wos getting it out of them h#<pounced upon my tallow and made off withit. The strife of wits was going against me. Half-dressed as I was, 1 immediately gave chase to the thief, and by reason of his corpulence gained on him so fast that he turned abruptly aud bolted into the cow-stable, which I entered at full run, just in time to see him carefully drop the tallow from ’ his mouth into a puddle, at tlie edge of which he wa# standing, and whence he came up to me serenelv, looking the picture of innocence, and wanting to play as if nothiug had happened.” “O, mother," cried little Jerry, run­ ning into the house one June day, “Sarah Munn says that Nan Scott is a-going to haves party next Friday! It’s her birthday, and she's a-goi^g to axk all the little girls and boy# on this street." “Then I suppose you’ll be invited, Jerry," paid his mother with a smile. “Do you really s’pose I shall ?” asked Jerry, earnestly. “Oh! oh! I never went to a party’in all my life!” This was Tuesday, and every day until Friday Jerry heard something more from Sarah Munn about that wonderful party. Jerry wa# the most bashful little boy in all'the world, but Sarah was willing to do all the talking, so she would tell him all the new things she saw and heard connected with tho party, and Jerry would scam­ per home and repeat it to his mother. “Nan’s having a new white dress mode on very pirrjxwe for the party. Sarah says, with pink Nash and pink bows on the sleeves, and she’s a-going to wear pink ribbons on her hair and pink strings iu her slippers. Don’t yon think pink shoe strings would look well for me," asked Jerry, looking down at his old shoes, “to wear with my white stockings aud checkered trousers, you know?" His mother smiled. “You’re not in­ vited vet, Jerry, and if you are, I think black shoe-strings look better than pink on a big boy." Jerry liked to be called big, if ho wasn’t but 6 years old. ■ Another day Harah described tho cakes. “Such loti and lota ot sugar cookies in heart# and rounds, and frosted cup cakes, and two great sheeta of sponge-cake, and the .beautifuliest birthday-cake ynu ever did see, with six tiny bit dollies stuck up in the froding, looking just as if they were wading in snow." “Oh,” said Jerry, “don't you think I shall be invited, mother?" *- Hi# mother wasn't sure, but on Fri­ day morning the invitation came. “Come at three o’clock." it said. “What shall I wear?” asked Jerry, and long l*fore noon he had all of liis meeting clothes laid on the bed ready to put ou, and all the while he talked about the supper and the plays. By three o'clock he was washed and brushed and dressed ready to go. 'Slick as a trout," grandma said. Aud then he began to dread going. “Go with Sarah Muun," said hia mother. “Oh, no," cried Jerry, “I'd rather not." “Then go with Ernie Jones or Det Powers or Barry Hait." But Jerry still made excuses. For two hours that bashful boy hung around, while his mother urged him to go. Finally he poked out on to the sidewalk, and there ha could see the children at play in Nau’s yard. “I gness 1’11 go now, if you will jusfc go with me." he said to his mother at the open window.

It occasionally happens, however, that one of these prison "characters” may indulge in vagaries more amusing than horrible.

One day she was returning from school with the rest of the prisoners, looking very grave and thoughtful, but walking with unusual haste. She would have dashed into her cell and closed the door, had not the suspicious matron followed her. "What's the matter, Smith—are you not well ?" was the inquiry. Smith put her hand to her head, aa though schooling had been too much for her. "A headache?" Site nodded. "Ah! it’s not worth while putting ywr name down to see the doctor for that, is it ?" Smith shook her head, and gave vent to a murmuring noise. . « "Then why don’t you say so? You are not too ill to speak.” Smith groaned and looked dismally at the matron, who was scarcely able to preserve the dignity of office upon detecting a small black rivulet oozing from one corner of the prisoner’s lips, and meandering down her chin. De­ prived of her thimble, she had brought the ink away in her mouth' “Don’t make a report of thia," urged she, afterward. "I’ve suffered orfullv, miss, and nearly poisoned myself.

In.the trousseau of a fair Parislcnno fully described in a recent Issue of a leading French journal, there was no linen underwear in -the category. Every­ thing was silk or wool. Can you imagine anything n»ore daiuty and delicate than a white crepe de chine underskirt, with an applique of point lace on the bottom, and above that an embroidered garland i of orange blossoms running around It? Underskirts of all colors were there, garnltured with Mechlin lace, old guipure, black cbvnllle, etc., etc. And one.-too. for outdoor parties In buckskin, embroidered a Ui rune In red and blue Kilk and gold thread.

Vearey was born tn Rockingham County, New Hampshire, about fifty-three year* ago, and wa* ed­ ucated at Phillips, Exeter Academy. Dartmouth College, and tho Albany Law School. He had,just begun practice In Springfield, Vl., when tho war broko out. At the close of hl* military ser­ vice he resumed practice at Rutland, in partnership with the Hon. Redticld Proctor, the present Secretary of War. He enlisted as a private tn the Third Vermont Volunteer* early In 1861, was chosen Captain of Com­ pany A. and promoted to be Major aud Lieutenant Colonel -that Summer. Th«' Colonel of the regiment was William F. Smith, who afterward became popu­ larly known as General •‘Baldy" Smith. Being a West Point man he gave his command thorough discipline, and It dis­ tinguished itself at Leo Mills, the first battle of the peninsular campaign in 1802. By this time, however, its colonel had boon made a general, and was in command of a division, and Colonel Voazoy was his chief staff and was en­ gaged in all the battles of the peninsular campaign. In addition to a leading law practice In 1804 he accepted an appoint­ ment as reporter of tho decisions of tho Supremo Court of Vermont, and held tho office eight years, publishing nine vol­ umes. Ho was a Slate Senator In 1872-3, ami a loading member of that body. Still continuing tn practice law, he was appointed register in bankruptcy in 1873, which he held untH the law wa* repealed. In 1879 he was chosen a Judge of tho Supreme Court of Vermont, and held this office for ten years, becoming dis­ tinguished for judicial learning and probity, and being called to preside at nisi prlus over the most difficult trials In the State. In 1879 ho was appointed by tho Governor a commissioner th report to the Legislature upon court expenses, with a view to retrenchment and reform. Soon after going on tho. bench he was appointed a commissioner for revising the statutes of the State. In 1889 ho was appointed by President Harrison an Interstate Commissioner, and this office he holds at tho present time. For the quarter ending June 30, 1890, 851,399.01 was expended.

It was a spectacle of superlative igrandeur by whatever standard it was measured. In point of numbers It was immense, and but for the excellent man­ agement of its organisers and directors fit would have been unwieldy. From 11 ^o’clock In the forenoon till after sunset ’this memorable march was kept up, •column after column passing the grand -stands with wonderful precision and pre­ senting to the spectators a succession of military tableaux, each one In Iu turn possessing some peculiar and distinctive trait of the State from which It came; Maine’s sturdy men displayed the pine •cone* of their forests; Wisconsin’s •contingent carried a badger; Ver­ mont’s gallant comrades adorned 1. As to the term “forked lightning," the representations o! it given by ar­ tiste, which resemble -the ao-called thunderbolts placed in the hand of Jupiter, are quite absurd. The flash, when photographed, exhibits itself as a line which is continually changing its course, and is described as “intensely crooked" by a very careful observer. It never proceed.* for a limo in a straight line, and then turning at a sharp angle, going on further in an equally straight line, as is represented in pictures.. The forking of it is very marked and tlds occurs by side-flashes passing off from the main track and eventually losing themselves, like the ramifications of tree roots. Occasion­ ally the lightning appears to start from a point from which several flashes diverge'in different directions. 2. “Sheet lightning"—Whenever a flash passes from cloud to cloud or from cloud to earth, the light produced by it illuminates the sky in tho neighborhood, and the more intense the flash the more brilliant and extensive the illumina­ tion. At times sheet lightning has been proved to emanate from an ordi­ nary storm, distant more than one hun­ dred miles from the point of observa­ tion. It is, however, maintained, and apparently with good reason, that oc­ casionally lightning of the “sheet" tvpe, such a* w/hat is called “summer lightning," takes place without any thunder, so that in such cases no ac­ tual thunder storm is in progress. 8. “Globular lightning"—This is a rare phenomenon, and one which no one has as yet been able to produce in the laboratory, whereas the phenomena of the two previous types are easily produced. The general description of the occurrence is that a luminous ball ia seen moving very slowly, not touch­ ing any object, aud eventually break­ ing up with a violent explosibn aud the appearance of several flashes of ordina­ ry lightning. It is reported that j>ersons have gonq out from a house into a street to follow such a ball aixi watch ita movements, so that the occurrence must have lasted at least a number of seconds. Ordinary lightning, as is well known, is practically quite in­ stantaneous. The size^of the ball on different occasions has varied from that of an orange to that of a large glass lamp glol>e, or even larger. Many physicists refuse to believe any ac­ count* of this manifestation of electric­ al discharge, but the reports of it are too numerous and circumstantial for us to consider them entirely baseless.— Longmah’n Magatine.

At last he lost all patience, and coming upon her unexpectedly one evening he said never a word, but took her in his arms and covered her face with kisses. She struggled aud screamed like a captured bird, and as uselessly, for the victorious lover paid no attention to her remonstrances, but kissed her hair, brow, cheeks, and lips with the concentrated passion of months of desire. And as he grew bolder, and. drawing heron his knee, kissed her white throat and clasped her yet more passionately, she became alarmed. She gave up struggling and had recourse to tears aud entreaties. “Let me go, oh! Please, let me go!" last, and will probably not occur again for “Pshaw !” said he.

What a vast distance is this that separates us from that star! Words and figures them­ selves fail to convey to our minds any adequate idea of its true character. To take a common example of illus­ trating such enormous distances: It is Calculated that the ball from an Armstrong 100-pounder quits the gnu with tho speed of about four hundred yards per second. Now, if this velocity could be kept up. it would require no fewer than 100.000,000 years before the ball could reach Sirius.

She had taken care to see that the hearth was clean, the fire warm, the room inviting, and had arraved herself in her brightest tmilas anti prettiest gown; but all to no purpose. As soon as dinner was over, her husband rushed away to his office, her boys to their clubs, her girls to a neighbor’* lionae and she was left alone. She hinted that her experience was that of many other mothers. Perhaps these neglected mothers may find a useful hint in tbe old story of a Lady Hay," who was banished by her ungrateful husband “ because her monotonous goodness put him to sleep.” The Greek who cast bis vote against Aristides because he “wa* tired of near­ ing him called tho Just" had the same impatient temperament which js shared by many of Ijis brother men to-day. Nor is the weariness of monotonous virtues unnatural or altogether unjust. If one of these neglected mothers were nursing’s sick child, she would provide it with a constant variety of dainty dishes, knowing that the appetite soon rejects the same unchanged food and that the body suffers in consequence. She ought to know that the brain eraves a change of thought as the bodv does of meat. “ it is the strange broth that aatisfiee the palate ” is an old proverb that suits the mind as well as the flesh.' If the mother and sisters wish fath­ er and brother* to stay at home during the evenings, they must bring some novel tv, some piquancy, some fresh air Into tho house. The effect will be wholesome for their own lives, as well as for the men of the family. Every household is likely to fall into ruts of thought. Conversation about the affairs of the kitchea. the neigh­ borhood, or even, the church, fancy work, or the half-dozen tunes which the girls know on the piano are apt to pall upon the taste of schcol and col­ lege boys. Their own gossip about baseball or their fraternity concerns is not a whit more elevating, but—it in­ terests them. The gray-haired mother of four sons at Yale amazed a vi*itor by her famil­ iarity with the records of boating club* (or many years. “ How can you load vour memory with such worthless rub­ bish ?” she was asked. “ It has helped to keep my boys close to me during their whole college life. Is that worthless ?" she replied, Bnt boys and men ehould remember that it is not the dutjr of the mother and sisters alone to bring variety and charm to the family life. If home bores them, let them at once go to work to make it • less weari­ some, for they may be sure that when , old age or death comes to them it will be to that old home their thoughts will turn, not to school, nor the base-ball ground, nor the dub.—Ex. iChk-aso dispatch.) uwd a* originally Intended.

The modus operand! of a safe-bur­ glary is easily described. The safe is “spotted." and tho store where it is located is watched closely for several days aud nights. Having left a man on watch for the police or other in­ truders, the working burglars approach tbe rear of the store. They either force a door, or apply a sheet of paper covered with glue or molasses to a pane of glass iu a window. This smashes in without a noise. Once in­ side, they begin operations bv boring a hole in the »afe above tho knob, or they putty up the eracks about the door, and with a bellows blow the powder inside the safe. Where dyna­ mite is applied, the dualine brand is used, a small piece being employed, then a fuse is attached, a couple of wet blankets tied around the safe to deaden the noise of the explosion, the fuse is ignited, aud the burglar* with draw to a safe spot.

The “widdy" was then run through the key-hole under the bolt, and its string caught the knob of the bolt and lifted it up, as shown by the dotted lines. After the knob was lifted • a single motion of the wire shot tho bolt, and the door. was opened. The booty was then secured, and the burglar adjusted key and bolt, so that from the outside, with nippers and wire, he both rebolted and relocked the door, leav­ ing no trace of his operations.

Both, ■candidates were eloquently presented to tho convention, and it ended in tho nomination of James M. Turner, of Lan­ sing. who received 498 votes on tho first informal ballot to 443 for John T.

Mr. Turner, ac­ companied by hjs wife and children and his Opponent, John T. .Rich, appear­ ed before the convention, ami, amid loud applause, thanked the convention. Among other thing he said: “1 never have anything good but what I want my family to share it with me. That’s why I Insisted that my wife and babies should come on the platform with me.” When he spoke of Gen. Algor as “the nation’s standard-bearer of 1888 and 1892" the delegates shouted themselves hoarse. There was a spirited fight for Lieuten­ ant Governor, J. W. Giddings of Cadillac, Ryan 8. Wait*- Of MonOMlnfiO* and Will­ iam S. Linton of Saginaw being put in nomination. Waite, the Upper Penin­ sula man. was opposed by a large number of delegates from that portion of tho State and withdrew, as did also Mr. Gid­ dings, before a ballot was taken and Mr. Linton was unanimously chosen. The Rev. Washington Gardener, of Jackson, was pMsentod as a candidate for Secretary of State without much op­ position, and thou began tho most deter­ mined and fiercest struggle of the day— tho triangular fight for State Treasurer. The Upper Peninsula almost solidly de­ manded the nomination bf Xfnmos A. Wilkinson, of Marquette. Daniel Mc­ Coy. of Grand Rapids, was tho champion ■of Kent County, while the Wayne County men held up Joseph IL Moore, of De­ troit, with a determination not usually found in this delegation. After nomi­ nating speeches from all sections of the State, the most remarkable skirmishing •of the day began. In the first informal ballot Moure got 345, Wilkinson 295, McCoy 296. The next ballot gave Moore 390, MeBoy 31G, Wilkinson 232. A motion to adjourn at this point was successfully fought down by the Moore, men, and the Wilkinson faction tried to deliver the entire sixty-six votes of the Upper Peninsula to McCoy, by withdraw­ ing Wilkinson and making that an­ nouncement. but amid the greatest con­ fusion and cries of “Moore" and “Mc­ Coy" several delegates from Detroit denounced the scheme and the second formal ballot was ordered. As the roll­ call proceeded cheer after cheer greeted the slightest gain for either candidate, but when Wayne swung into line with 96 votes (the solid delegation) for Moore the climax was reached, and with wild cheers his nomination was made unanimous. The ticket was then completed as fol­ lows, all of the nominations going by ac­ clamation: Auditor General, Theron F. Giddings of Kalamazoo. CcanmiMlonsr of State Land Office, John G.

He talked about as follows: “I do not expect I shall have? any se­ rious difficulty at the conference. I shall make any necessary explanations that may be asked for, but shall not go out of my way in the least to apologize or attempt a vindication. I have done nothing wrong, aud I am perfectly will­ ing to abide 'by the result I am confi­ dent that my explanation will be satis­ factory, and that the report of tho investigating committee will be satis­ factory. I am not sorry for anything I have done, have not a single regret, and have not allowed thu matter to disturb my slumbers " Mr. Arney’s parishioners sanction his cause, and declare thclf intention of standing by him. He also says, that in the event of the worst hap|>**n!ng the conference can only suspend him. “The church cannot dictate to me what I Ahull do and what I shall not do, beyond a certain limit. If I see fit to give another horse race in the future that is my affair, and I do not copccde that the church has any right to Interfere with me so long as I serve my people acceptably as paster.” DEATH OF DR. DOUGLAS. Dr. Silas H; Douglas, the oldest sur­ vivor of the ex-professors of the Univer­ sity of Michigan. Is dead. Hft had a paralytic stroke three years ago and has been an invalid since. Dr. Douglas was born In Chautauqua County, New York, in 1816. He gradu­ ated from the University of Vermont and afterward took a master's degree from the same institution. In 183$ ho came to Michigan, locating in Detroit, where hestudied medicine with Drs. Rice and PiU'lwr. He graduated in medicine at tho University of Maryland and re­ turned to Detroit, when? he was con­ nected with the geological survey and with a Government party negotiating Indian treaties. In 1843 he moved to Ann Arbor and began practice. In 1844 he was appointed Assistant Pro­ fessor of Chemistry, and two years later was advanced to a full professorship of ttbe same branch, filling this and other gmitlons In the University until 1875. is name was brought prominently be­ fore the people by the celebrated RoseDouglas Investigation, in which the dis­ appearance of certain moneys belonging to the University was brought out, and which investigation and decisions of the various courts and tho Supreme Court entirely vindicated Dr. Douglas.

The Coal Palace is built at Ottumwa, which has been called the “Lowell of Iowa” because of its great manufactur­ ing interests. These manufacturing In­ terests are directly due to the great coal beds In which Ottumwa is situated. Tho city is an old one—us Western cities go —dating lu history from 1840, or there­ abouts, and preserving in iu local an­ nuls the near-by traditions of the great aboriginal tribes -who once made this their hunting-grounds. The town has a population of some 17,000, and is just now growing with that surprising ra­ pidity which seems to bo the distin­ guishing characteristic of the West.

At Ottumwa all the roads center upon the river front, it, back ofpwhlch tho city rises In lordly to the summit of the sweeping bluff*. Tho palace Is In the very heart city. The great structure rises and pinnacle and lordly nave In and harmonious design, covering almost a block of ground, and 2oo feet In clear to Its highest central tower. It those massive, harmoniously graces of architecture which rescue it from all triviality. Its. name is not a misnomer—It is a palaeo In all its archi­ tectural details. Tho cost of tho building will be be­ tween 328.000 and 830,000, 230 feet in length, 130 feet In width; it has a dis­ tinct architectural character. The architecture Is a compromise between. the gothic and the Byzantine. The build­ ing Is two stories In height, tho first be­ ing about 20 feel to the celling, the other reaching to the top .of tho structure, varying from 40 to 60 feet. Tho main entrance Is on Main street, through the grand arch In the tower to the right, whoso summit Is near the tower. That battlement Is 36 feet wide and of .the same proportions as the ono to tho lofL which faces the unique and sunken gar­ den. The rear end Is beautified by twin soml-clrcular turrets, one of which can be seen al tho extreme rlghu A couple of similar towers, somewhat elongated, Jut out from the other side toward tho opposite or Washington street end of the palace, while a similar tower to that first described forming tho main street en­ trance, symmetrizes tho palace on the opposite side. In this tower Is tho stage, 30X36, and the main hall with tho bal­ conies ascending direct from the stage, will give the building an auditorium with a seating capacity of from 6,000 to 8,000. On cither side of the main room or nave of tho building are the spaces above and below for the exhibits of the surrounding counties and from abroad. But thing of a palace of coal. Yet that is what this is. Great hewn blocks of the glistening bituminous product, laid in red mortar, form the massive walls; veneered over the solid sheeting of plank. And the ten counties which form the coal league—though the citi­ zens of Ottumwa are building the palace —produce over 3,000,000 tons -of the bituminous product every year, and offer to the manufacturer and the artisan the cheapest fuel in the world, costing for steam production but 37 cents per ton in Ottumwa. There will be three be present on different days, when spe­ cial celebration will be accorded them. \Yh<> originated the palace idea? It is Is doubtful If my one knows, but the honor I* ascribed to an Iowa Senator—Senator Harsh. With commendable pride and wide generosity, the public-spirited men of Ottumwa promptly acted upon tho suggestion. Colonel P. G. Ballingall, who is interested in all tho public enterprises In Iowa, was chosen President when the association was formed, with S. A. Flagler, an extensive mine operator, as Vice President; Calvin Manning, cashier of the Iowa National JJank. as Secrolary. and W. T. Fenton, cashier of tho Ottumwa National Bank, a* Treasurer. Backed by a thoroughly wideawake and harmonious board of directors, compris­ ing a coterie of public-spirited and lib­ eral citizens, th*? work was pushed for­ ward. The popular subscription of 330,ooo to begin with was promptly takety and tho Inspiration of the prime- movers was felt by all the citizens of the city and gradually spread throughout South­ ord Iowa, which now looks upon the enterprise with all thqjond pride that a great commonwealth can feel In a pel project to exploit Its wonderful natural resources.

Among others were the following: By Mr. Maretto, of Marshall County, to.lnsert into the constitution the following words under the section bill of rights: “This State shall ever remain a member of the American Union, and the people thereof are a part of the American nation, and all attempts to dissolve tho said union shall lie resisted with tho whole power of the State." Mr. Dab­ ney. of Warren County, offered a pre­ amble aitd resolution touching the fifteenth amendment. The preamble re­ cites that the black and white races are hopelessly antagonistic on political ques­ tions, and that the safety of the state demands white supremacy. Three dele­ gates offered resolutions providing tliat no member of the convention shall bo eligible to a State or national office for ajperiod of three years immediately fol­ lowing the adoption of the constitution. Those were referred without action. The report of the sub-committee on franchise, which was printed to-day, does not materially differ from th*' lan­ guage of the provisions telegraphed last night.

HI. 49 1 I Information comes from Brazil to the. effect that a syndicate of wealthy coffee merchants have banded togeth­ er for the punjose of monopolizing the coffee trade of that republic. The en­ terprise Is entitled the “Bagging Cof­ fee Cd.." with a stock of 812,500,000, only one-half of which is expected to lx- paid in. The purpose of the organ­ ization is to purchase coffee direct from the planters, and to ship it di­ rect to, the principal markets of the world, where the syndicate will be rep­ resented by agents. The promoters estimate that the enterprise will pay an annual profit of 25 per cent, on a capitalization of Id,'350,000, which dis­ sipates the possibility that the mem­ bers of the syndicate are philanthro­ pists. As the combination starts out on the assumption that it can ignore the ordinary laws of trade, it is safe to predict that It will meet the same fate as the French copper syndicate.

The above is a clipping from a recent issue of one of the metropolitan dally papers of Chicago. • To the person who makes a practice of reading the local criminal happenings of a great city items like this, though often darker and more revoking, are as commonplace as the weather report or the promises nf cleaner streets. While almtHt no end of Chicago's own citizens fall easy victims to the wiles of the "siren" and the tricks and devices of “bunko-sU'erers,” “mock auctioneers," •snide advertisers" and the small army of other depraved people “who live by their wits," It Is tho “countrymen" to whom they look for their real harvest. This is not because the farmers and residents of small towns and villages lack tho.hiteillgence or caulion of their more favored “city cousins," bnt results from a want of experience and a conse­ quent Ignorance of the “ways of the world.” particularly those “ways which arc dark, and tricks which arc vain." Besides, that very caution which leads the country visitor to carry his “roll" pinned up In the Inside pocket of his vest, and to regard everybody an J'every thing with suspicion and distrust, places him In greater danger, since once thrown off his guard and his confidence \gained he is glad to have found. In what he has been led to regard as a city of sharpers, one straightforward, honorable man, In consequence of which disarming of his suspicions he Is the more easily “worked." “The good man is from home; he has .gone on a long Journey. These words, quoted by “that wise King, Dan Solomon,” in his wise and warning proverbs, are as current now as when thousands of years ago. they were used to beguile into evil courses the young and unwary men of far-off Judea. He who listens to them, and listening belioves. often finds that the “long Jour­ ney* has extended no farther than to the corner saloon, and that “tho good man “ frequently returns at almost Inopportune times in a frenzy of Jealous rage, which nothing bnt money, and a liberal portion of it, can alloy. “Have they found the woman?" This question which originated with an ancient philosopher, who was asked to unravel the mystery of a dark crime, has assumed the form of a proverb, and Is propounded whenever a well-masked Border, or other flagrant broach of the law, occurs. In her normal condition and proper sphere, for purer and more honorable Chan her “complement," the “lord of creation,” woman, when once degraded, •falls like Lucifer,” and renders probable the conjecture that one of her sex may be found connected with the greater part of ail sensational tragedies. •The queen of diamondsl That means money. Your fortune will be made by a ‘blonde woman, young and beautiful.' ” Chicago somu two years ago. The latter made a responsive sign and glided down the long stairway. Five minutes later John Fellows was walking down tho street toward tho business center of the city. He was a new-comer to Chicago. Two months before he had arrived In the Garden City bringing 8-’».000 in edah and letters which had 'secured him a good position In the office of a LaSalle street broker. “Swindled again!" muttered he. paus­ ing on the third crossing, and looking in vain for the promised “blonde woman." | "I’m two dollars out, and I’m glad of It, for I hate women, anyway." Just then a lady dressed In deepest black, and closely veiled, emerged from a Jewelry store and walked west. As she passed him something fell from the folds of her dress to the sidewalk. It proved to be a small Jewelcase, which the young man secured and then darted after'her. “Beg your pardon!" said ho, raising his hat and offering the case. “Thank you, sir; very much." As she spoke she put aside her veil and disclosed a fair face and an abund­ ance of blonde hair. The young man fairly recoiled, so In­ tense was his surprise at the fulfillment of the prophecy. A conversation ensued In which she In- forood Fellows that she was a stranger in Chicago, whither she had come upon tins death of her father to prepare for the stage.

Some years ago a murder occurred at the Palmer House, in which the four ele­ ments of this “old rhyme” were all con­ spicuously present Unlike the case of John Fellows, that of Charlie Stiles was fully investigated and the smallest de­ tails published at th<> time. Stiles was calling clerk for the Beard of Trade, a position which yielded him a handsome Income. Like Fellows, ho came from a country town, but unlike the victim of a fortune-teller, he had hosts of friends, aud was regarded by tho “men about town” as one of the best boys living. Such popularity was not confined to the sterner sox, however. Stiles became enamored of a beautiful siren, a young Italian woman named Madeline Starlatu. After a long Intimacy they quarreled. Stiles leiydng her to walk Into the city from a road-house where he had driven her in a buggy. Wearied with her long tramp, and burning with all the vengeful rage of her Impetuous race, she pur­ chased a revolver, and early the following morning entered the Palmer House, where Stiles mode his home.

It ta In Tsllmage Township, Ottawa pmnty. which ta the only county intervening between thta and Lake Michigan. The neighbor­ hood Is famous for Its fruit crow, and Its farmers are among the most Intelligent and thrifty to tie found anywhere. Crime and mystery, so familiar tn their'varied aspects to city life, always seem strangely incongruous to such rural surroundings. At thta quiet farrn house the funeral services were held this Sunday afternoon over ’ the remain* of Wm. A- Quigley, who declared with hta dying breath that he hud been murtlered. and yet a cor­ oner's jury, composed of neighbors whohad known the dead man all his.llfe, refured to find a verdict of murder. Before the circumstances of tho case are related in detail, a word should bo said regarding Quigley, whose peculiar characteristics will lend additional color to thu queer story. He was born In the neighborhood hi which he lived, and died, forty-four yean* ago. He was Industri­ ous tea fault, economical to penurlousnros, allowed himself no luxuries, and. Indulged tri*no vices, not even tobacco.. His own relatives called him avaricious^ and said that money-making was his only aim. The neighbors were not more charita­ ble. “Bill" Quigley, as he was called, kept on his own way. caring nothing for these aspersions. Hy prospered. Hta farm was set out In fruit and garden, vegetables, and his profit* were large. One son, Amos, a boy now nearly 10. was brought up to work as hard as his father worked. Those two did all the work un­ til three years ago. when Quigley be­ came afflicted with a chronic aliment, which nt times incapacitated’ him from labor. Thun a young boy was hired to assist Amos. Quigley ca:nc to town last Tuesday to transact some business, although he was hardly able to be out of bed. It rained, , he got wet, and was taken seriously ill. He had discharged Dr. Brady, who bad been the family physician for years, and engaged Dr. Clark of Grand Rapids, one of the “uo cure, do pay* variety of practitioners. So he rent his wife to , town to consult with Dr. Clark about his 1 complaint. Mrs. Quigley cautioned tho. boys to look after the <»kl man while she was gone, but Quigley imperatively or­ dered them to do some work In the ex­ treme northeast corner of the farm out of sight of tho house and the lake. About three o'dock In the afternoon Amos rent-the boy, Holloway by name, to the house for water and to see how the old man was gt*lting along. The boy came running back shortly, terrified, and said that the old man was dying. The boy was told to go for Mrs. Pelton, one of Quigley's staters who lived near by, and Ainos hurried to the house. He found hta father lying insensible dn the. sofa, stripped of hta clothing, cold from exposure, and bleeding copiously from a number of wounds on tho face and head. The old man recovered cdnodousneM af­ ter a while, and he told Mrs. Pelton and his son that he had been assaulted by two men. He said ho had been asleep and was aroused by some kind of crush­ ing shock as If hit In the face by some heavy weapon. His next realization was finding himself lying In a |xool of blood in the yard at the rear of the house. Ho had summoned sufficient strength to cfrawl back Into tho house, where he had Jost consciousness again. His first thought was that robbery was the motive, and bit first words to his son upon recovering consclousnes® were a command to look for his pocketbookThe son found hta father’s trousers In the woodshed, where they had been care­ lessly thrown by some one, possibly the murderers themrelves. The purse was In. one of the pockets and contained 825. Seventy dollars was missing. Including a 850 gold piece, one of the octagonal “California slugs." which are rare and. are worth perhaps 800 or 8100 as curiosi­ ties. Quigley had carried It for years aw n pocket piece. The theory of robbery would appear to be the only one con­ sistent with the circumstances were it not for the fact that 825 was left In tho purse. H the robbers took 870 and left, the rest their motive for so doing is a matter for wide conjecture. Jus'llcc Baldwin Impaneled a Coroner’s jury and held'.the Inquest. No one of the witnesses knew of any personal enemies of Quigley who might have com­ mitted the deed or caused It to be commit­ ted. The fact that 825 was found In the purse cast doubt upon the robbery theory. Dr. Brady was positive that Quigley had told the truth aud that be had been mur­ dered. Dr. Clark was positive lu hta own theory uf accidental falling and an as­ sault imagined In a nightmare. It be­ came au issue between the doctors. Two county officials were present to see If their services would be required. These were Sheriff Van-Poll and Prosecuting Attorney LHley, both of Grand Haven. The jury deliberated all day and half the night. Three of them were fast In the theory of murder. The other throe, while not actually accepting Dr. Clark’s theory, were yet unwilling to bring in a murder verdict with the doubts which they entertained. About midnight the worthy Justice who was acting as Coro­ ner notified the six good mon and true to find a verdict or go home and he would Impanel a new jury. In- view of thia threat they agreed upon a verdict of “death from unknown causes." ’ The verdict Is far from satisfactory. It ta charged that the county officials were desirous of avoiding the oxpcnM* of unraveling a difficult murder <*aac, and for this reason affected a credence for Dr. Clark’s theory which they did not feel, and which nevertheless hod in­ sensibly a strong influence upon tbe minds of the thn-o jurymen who held out against a verdict of murder. .

Nature gave us hair to servo as a covering for our beads, and she thought she hod solved that problem. Ancient art took this view of the matter, and you’ll find that, with very rare exceptions. It gives no other covering to women’s heads save the natural one. Hence It is a very dar­ ing piece of business—thta attempt to devise headgear which shall be at ono and the sam<- time useful and ornamental. In this ago, the men alone attempt to unite the two; we woman strive only for the ornamental. A very witty French woman once wrote a book to prove that everything and everybody In this world are ridiculous. If she were alive to-day, aud could gaze upon our tiny toques, our dainty little bonnets and our huge, widereaching big hats, she would tip-tilt her nose and exclaim. Cost ridicule: But, ridiculous or not, we must have them. For centuries fathers, husbands and brothers have scoffed at women's hats. They have either been too big. too little, too flat, or-too flaring. My advice to my erring sisters Is, ’’Go your ways and take no note of these captious critics." ”1 buy my bonnets to suit my husband,” exclaimed a lady In a calm, self-sufficient tone of voice. ••It's a pity you couldn't get him to wear them.” thought I to myself. Although the summer hat has several weeks to run yet, I don’t think It is a bit too soon to give a glance ahead.

Tills graceful and picturesque hat fits closely to the hair, encircling the coll and giving a very charming and naive ex­ pression to the wearer, who should, of course, be young aud handsome, for I havb always found that novelties look best on the heads of such people, strange asllt may appear. A French writer has said that wo should forgive everything in a young and handsome woman, even her Jack of heart, that being too much to ex­ pect along with tho other charms. But how about the ugly tinea? Are they to go veiled or keep withindoors? Possibly, they are to be ppt to death? Well, to return to this pretty hat. On one side there te a large pink rose with a mass of foliage and buds, the rest of the trimming being formed of cream Ahiffon, printed with an old world j»attern, consisting of large red roses aud pale-green leaves, the whole effect of which te most artistic. Possibly It might be well to end this chapter on hats by talking about something else, the hair, for Instance, which must abound In “wavy” effects and not mar the oniltrie ofshe head. So extremely fashionable Paris has felt Itself called upon to adopt our English word to express the proper thing In the arrangement of the hair.

Monterey is bevond comparison the queen city of North Mexico. Two thousand "feet above the level of the sea. it nestles like a flower garden at the base of the towering Sierra Mad­ ras, in a valley as lovely as the Vale of Cashmere—rich in verdure and opulent in its wealth of tropical fruits, grapes, oranges, lemons, bananas, figs, jwtnegranates, mangoes and a score of others unknown to our more northern climate. The graceful palm tree, straight as the lines of Lavster, lifts its shapely head into the blue skies, and the olean­ der mingle* its soft beauty with the delicate fragrance of the Cape jasmine until one almost feels that be is in the portals of the garden of Hesperide*. Monterey contains a population of 60,000, is’ compactly built, has wellequipped railroads running north, south, east and west, a commodious opera house, two cotton factories, one woolen factory. three hat factories, candle, match, starch and soap facto­ ries, three admirably equipped street car lines extending about sixteen miles, numerous excellent hotels, sev­ eral flouring mills, door, sash and funiture factories, electric light plant, sugar refinery, distillery, brewery and ice factories, foundry and machine shops, knitting works, two large smelt­ ing works of 500 tons dailv capacity dow being erected, with still another in prosjiect, which will make of Mon­ terey the smelting center of all and’ will North Mexico, ’ to it the vast _ mineral ___ wealth _____ of several rich .'States. Nearly all of this has been accomplisbedwithin the past. few months, during which brief period I am told that more than $3,000,000 has been invested in Monterey. More than 2.000 new rooms have been added to the city in the same period. Gov. Reyes, military commandant, having signed a decree having the sanctity of the law that all buildings erected in Monterey at a cost exceeding $2,000 shall be exempt from taxation for a period o£* five years. The city has one of the strongest banks in the republic, that of Don Patricio Milmo. grand old cathedrals, beautiful plaza* with fountain* and delightful oiamedas. and a splendid new club-house on the charming plaza of Zaragosa, with a ballroom on the second floor, which, for size, ventila­ tion, beauty of design and Oriental magnificence of decoration, has no su­ perior, sA far as I have seen, either on this continent or in Europe: and’ last, but not least, the best medicinal suli»hur and hot baths on the whole Amer­ ican continent, if not in the world. Geo. F. Alfojio. XI'osTXMXT. Mexico, The migration of thieves and swin­ dler* to Canada is by no means a new thing nor yet a Yankee idea. The credit for starting the exodus belongs to the New-Yorkers of colonial days, and is an English suggestion, you know. The New York Qarett* "for September 9, 1751. says editorially that it has received advices from Hali­ fax. in Nova Scotia, that “there is such a number of New-Yorkers got to that olace r.s will nearly fill one of the largest streets in the town." These gentlemen had agreed to enter into a trust under the name of the “Free New York- Fishery Company of Nova Scotia." The gist of the an­ nouncement lies in the very candid ]x>stseript, that "all that shall here­ after come here from New York, pro­ vided they come as one of King Da­ vid’s soldiers (see I. Sam. xxn. 2), shall be permitted to join them.” Reference to the Bible shows that the verse speaks of David’s Hight to the -cave of AduIUm, where he gath­ ered under his banner "everyone that was distressed and everyone' that was in debt and everyone that was discon­ tented"—a precious set of soreheads and pirate*. The bcxxllers. default­ ers, and embezzlers of New York seem to have been as welcome guests in Halifax in 1751 as in the present year of grace. MONKEY AND PARROTS.

What Is deemed stately aud grace­ ful by one genera­ tion becomes stilted and ridiculous In the eyes of another. Why is It we mayn’t be content with the frills and furbelows of our grandmas? Why is It the wadded hood of olden time must be replaced by tho French bonnet? The answer Is that fashions are a part •of our civilization, and that, when a . nation « ceases to make changes In its clothes, It either stands still or retrogrades. Far from being an evil, therefore, fashion* arc a blessing, a thing to be proud of. for a man who will think out a now style of neckwear will invent a now fire-arm, improve tho steam engine, or jierfoct tho electrical motor. So I would say to the beautiful creature wliore life is one long do.Vc/or aie/ito “Brava!"

According to the French authorities on this subject, the tall hat which has, in one form or another, for nearly a hundred vears l^een the mark of olegauce and con­ formity to fashion, had its beginning in Benjamin Franklin's modest Quaker broad-brim. When Franklin went to France dur­ ing the American war of independence, ho became, ns is well known, an ob­ ject almost of adoration on the part of the Parisians. . His - simple, homely, honest manners quite captivated a people who were heartily sick of the frivolity, the pretense, the profligacy, the dandyism of the old French court. Franklin's wise and witty philoso­ phy and serene amiability won their minds and hearts ns well; end he prosently became the emblem aud type of republican simplicity. Even' his Quaker bat came in for a share of the general admiration; and during the years which preceded the French revolution, the Parisian hat­ ters began .to imitate it in their manu­ factures, but,-to adapt it in some de­ gree to French tastes, they narrowed the brim and lengthened the stiff, flue-like crown. With the breaking out of the revo­ lution and the downfall of royalty, there came n sort of rebellion again st th-* manners and even the dress of tho old court. The ane'ent Gteeks and Bomans were drawn ujion for models in women’s garments, and a head-gear was demanded for men. At this juncture nothing seemed so fitting to the republican hatters as the modified broad-brim of Franklin; and in the year 1790. therefore the regu­ lar manufacture of it fens begun, and it « as put upon the market. It soon'came into general use. “John Bull." the typical Englishman, adopt­ ed it, and its primitive form is still preserved in his conventional portrait. But tho "elegants” soon lengthened its crown into the semblance of an ac­ tual section of a stove-pipe, and nar­ rowed its brim until it became next tc nothing. The hat has remained in fashion eve: since, though it has undergone many modifications of form in obedience tc the ciprices of changing years. It still changes from year to year; at one tim« its brim extends outward and rolls up­ ward. and its crown flares, bell-like, at the top; and asrain the c. own recede! into itself and becomes a mere cylin­ der. and the brim is a rim and nothing more. But any old “stove-pipe” r kept long enough, will come in foshioz again. ______________________ It is the fashion to believe that ari cannot thrive in our trading democracy says Robert S. Penbody, in Harper’.. Magazine. Our cultured society s]>eak of art with solemnity and awe. as then apeak of one that has fought the good fight, aud who rests from his labors. Indeed, we have lately been told by a professor of great distinction that there is no hope here for real literature or art. so hopelessly vulgar and sordid is American life. Surely those burghers of medurval Paris knew nothing of culture, and doubtless they were vul­ gar? but they thoroughly believed in their religion, and their vulgarity did not prevent their originating the Gothic cathedrals. Doubtless those Florentine traders were mercenary, but they loved their city with fervor, and gladly gave their wealth to build its public monuments. Neither Frenchman nor Florentine had art critics to tell him his motives, but they applied to their everyday work vigor, courage, and energy, and. with­ out their knowing it, their work im­ mortalized them. Now. why should wo not believe in our own ]xmsibilities? We have doubt­ less seen a great deal of ostentation and vulgarity.built into more or* Irygj parmanent form, and doubtless we are very far from having pro luced great works of architecture. Our distance from the great works of antiquity has always permitted here a freedom from authority in art which, if it frequently lends us into license, presents to ns at the same time our unique opportunity. In the best work, influenced as it is by the books and photographs wlrich now familiarize us with all that the world has done liefore us, there is even now to be seen a reasonable restraint controlling thia liberty. As our na­ tional wants are new. and inventions daily increa-e which revolutionize the art of construction, it seeriis to me that tho problems will daily be solved in a better manner, and we may hope for a period of build! ig that will em­ phasize our good, rather than our bad. jMiints. Why should wo not. in looking at such example* os I hove quoted, in­ sist that there ia f*r from being any­ thing in the existing conditions of American life to hinder the progress of art ? Evidences of the reverse exist on every side. While dilettantism may discourage, for myself I have enthu­ siasm enough left to believe that the hope of the future in art, as in many other fields of human endeavor, lies, as the years go on, with onr ambitious, prosperous, and appreciative democ­ racy. t E SEE BELOW THB WAVES.

Now an autumnal chill per­ vades the element which bathes us. On this sultry day in July, the tem­ perature of the water was about 70 degrees Fahr.; now it is below 40. A dim twilight has settled down upon us. Looking upward, the day we have left behind ia but s dusky, yel­ lowish haze, which overhangs us like a pall. Clear as the water appeared to be, tho sediment floating from the land, moo through tho watery vistas of half a mile, abuts out the blue aky. The dust of our “continent to be" ia settling down around us, and in an­ other sge the pulpy, relic-freighted sea bottom will be lifted up into daylight, and other populations will settle on it aud call it thoira, marveling as do we how this could once have been the sea. We pass on farther. As we travel from tho shore a mile has now lieen covered, and a mile of water hangs ■ over us; the sediment from the laud diminishes, but total darkness shuts us in: vc grope and feel our way, but nothing is visible, no sound is heard. There seems to be no life. The species of organic life which dwell in this weird twilight do not pass tho indefi­ nable wall of darkness. There are no more sea weeds—paly diatoms and the cal careon* algai plants, with frames al silica, and tho curious power of uncon­ scious locomotion swarming in the depths, and plants like vegetable limeratene rooted and branched. ' Oh, it is fearful to contemplate, the realm we ore now entering! There are no enemies to encounter; all the pitfalls have been buried beneath tho smooth alimo which countless thou­ sands uf years have thrown down. This is an unfrequented abode of or­ ganic life, an untenanted—aye, and undiscovered—country. There are no charts to follow now, no footpaths to show our way. We know not what form of life wo shall meet. Twilight is extinguished. The sparse sediment from the land can no longer be detect­ ed; but tho forms of living things, plant and animal, things microscopic and multitudinous, float in clouda around and above us. There are charnel houses and dead forms hern, abandoned homes of tiny creatures, which swarm about in the sunlight Dear tho surface. Abandoned, they are xx>w settling d.*.vn through, the abodes of midnight and silence, and are strewing the cold sea bot­ tom with a white and chalky ooze.

Selling now at 81.50 a bushel and will be shipped In from Utah or Colorado. Central Missouri reports that millers are buying all the wheat they can get hold of. Stocks of old wheat all gone; and orders for wheat arc coming in from Iowa and also from Illinois. In Southern Illinois millers are gener­ ally buying all the wheat that Is offering.. Farmers, however, have not been Belling freely. Millers are generally stocked up with wheat to keep them running from sixty to ninety days. In Central Illinois mill*Are fairly well supplied with wheat, but few of them have more than a ninety days' stock. There Is a steady Southern demand, and some Ohio and Indiana mills are in the market for wheat at St. .Louis prices. Southern demand for whea't Is an un­ usual thing at this season of the year. Potatoes have not shown any Improve­ ment since the late reins aud the crop will not be sufficient for home wants. As a rule the millers In Northern Indi­ ana at present are ail buyers of wheat. So far they hare no stocks ahead and are grinding their dally receipts. In Southern Indiana milters have boen buying wheat frealy at 81. The stocks are generally light. There Is a good de­ mand from other States both for seed wheat and for grinding. Miller* gener­ ally have enough on hand to keep them going f<?r sixty days. Good progress has been made with plowing the ground and seeding will soon commence. ■ Potatoes are practically a failure. In Southern Ohio, most of the mills have no stock to amount to anything: hence they are buying all the wheat they Can get. Farmers are not selling freely, and will not unless 81 becomes tho gen­ eral prieg. Good ^progress has -been made In plowing Tor wheat, but tlw ground has been so dry that more rain would be bcnelicfal. In Southern Michigan mllkrs have been buying considerable wheat within the last ten days. There has been a good demand for flour, and many of the mills have sold ahead for a month.' Mills are not generally heavily stocked with wheat. The laud Is dry: neverthe­ less farmers have been plowing, and the prospects point to an increase of acre­ age over last soason. ■ All things considered, it has been a g<»od week for maturing earn, and -the prospects *ro now that within ten days a largo proportion of the corn crop will be out of the way of frost. Nebraska reports that there Is yet no corn in that State out of the way of frost. Recent rains have improved the condition of corn in sections where there were fair prosi>ect8 before the rain; but In a laige portiftfr of-thcrWau* the damage done'*to the crop was too extensive for rains to be of any material benefit. Taking the State as a whole, tho pros­ pects now point to about 40 to 45 per cent, of- last year’s ’crop. The local ' price of corn during the just week was 40 cents a bushel This price was based upon Western markets and local feed­ ers. The price has decl lin'd to from 33 to 35 cents, and Is getting down to a shipping basis to Eastern markets. There is about 10 |jer cent, of old corn In farmers' hands. The potato crop will bo extremely light, with none to ship out of the State. In Southwestern Iowa no corn is. yet out of the way of frost. The recent reins have had the effect to stop further damage to tho crop caused by the dry ■weather. The ears will fill out better, but It will not make any more ears or any longer ones. The Improvement Is more In appearance than anything else. A small |M*reentage of the corn in Cen­ tral Illinois will not- be hurt by a light frost. The remainder of the crop will require from fifteen to twenty days. Southern Illinois reports half a crop’to a total failure and farmers arc using new corn already for sood. Report* from North Dakota are that wheat that was cut with binders is being threshed. The quality is j>oor and the yield light, averaging six to fifteen bushels per acre Rains have put the grounds In good condition for plowing. Few cases are reported where the wheat has turned out much more than one-half as much as was estimated during har­ vest. This Is owing to the shrunken con­ dition of the berry and the heads not be­ ing mure than half full. The straw was heavy, more so than last year, and this Is the reason why so many are now dis­ appointed in the final outcome. It Is thought that farmers will be free sellers at present prices, and heavy rtcekpt* at Duluth and Minneapolis are looked for in the near future. Reports covering stations on tho Mil­ waukee and St. Paul Road through Wis­ consin, Minnesota and Dakota say the spring wheat crop ha* now been secured hi fairly good shape.

It is an absolute and Irretrievable col­ lapse and the large capital of the con­ cern Is completely wiped ouL Itls’lmpoMlble as y«t to ascertain the extent of the firm's liabilities, but they are roughly estimated by members of the house to be upward of 82,000,000. The failure was caused by prolonged and useless . speculation and. It is be­ lieved, the indiscretions of L. W. Saw­ yer, who has charge of the London office of the concern and controlled practically all of the European option business, whteh was very extensive, as Sawyer, Wallace, & Co., had 180 agents, embrac­ ing every city In Europe. The firm has no membership in tho Stock Exchange, very little of iu busi­ ness being in that line. But It is representod in the Consolidated Stock and Petroleum Exchange, the Produce Ex­ change, the Cotton Exchange, tho Cof­ fee Exchange, and the Tobacco Board of Trade. • While members of the firm and tbelr representatives made no attempt to con­ ceal their lamentable plight, they were personally disinclined to expose tho treachery of the trusted servant who was the causo of their ruin, and whose venerable father, the senior of the firm he had' betrayed, was bowed down with this double affliction—the wreck of his business and the disgrace of his son. From unquestionable authority a re­ porter learned some of the wretched de­ tails of the operations which led up to the disaster. For many years tho option business of Sawyer, Wallace Jfc Co. for customers in Europe has been very large, especially tn the way of speculating in grain and provisions on margin on tho New York Produce Exchange, besides which they handled many contracts from this side for th-- exchanges and bourses of Europe. This European business grew so largo that, for the purpose of handling it more expeditiously and economically, It wzs deemed desirable to open a branch house in London. Five years ago this was done, and Lucius Willard Sawyer, eldest son of Samuel A. Sawyer, the head of the firm, was placed In charge of it, with control of the firm's option business In ail parts of Europe. There were ISO agents In the various cities of Groat Britain and the continent, and all these who handled orders for option trading henceforth transacted all their busi­ ness for lawyer. Wallace «fc Co., through the London branch. This, of course, gave Mty Sawyer the control of a vast business and the handling of enormous amount^ of money In the shape of mar­ gin* ami collaterals. L. SV. Sawyer is a man now over 40 yeaijs of age. He was employed In tho home office in New York in bls younger days, but for fifteen years or more has llyed most of his time abroad. • He is married and has a family. While he was at one time a iJtjJe distrusted by some of his shrewder friends on account ot a .tendency toward Injudicious flyers In the speculative markets they had hoped that these were merely manifesta­ tions of youthful indiscretion, and that he bad reached a time of life when a man should know better, especially one in such a responsible aud lucrative po­ sition. Early in the present year, however, certain things camo to the ear of the home office In New Yqrk which led them to fear that the London manager was speculating on his own account, butwlinn Mr. Sawyer was communicated with'- by his father ho denied the charge strenuously. Thl* lulled suspicion for a time, bnt early In April"tliere was a re­ newed and still stronger ground for be­ lieving that something was wrong In London. Mr. Sawyer’s drafts on New ’York were suspiciously heavy and fre­ quent, and his reports aa to the finances of his office were qulto unsatisfactory. His father, the senior Mr. Sawyer, de­ termined to hasten his annual visit of inspection and sailed at once for Lon­ don. His discoveries as soon as ho ar­ rived were of the most alarming charac­ ter. Ho found that his son bad deceived his employers and had been speculating recklessly and disastrously. His dealings had begun two years be­ fore, when he went Into a big pork deal, buying enormous quantities for a rise, and he used not only his own money but that of the firm. These purchases were made In New York and Chicago, his operations" being conducted by cable, through brokers In this city in.the Prod­ uce Exchange and the Chicago Board of Trade. There had doubtless been oc­ casions while Mr. Sawyer himself stood In the provision ring on tho Produce Ex­ change making a purchase or sale for a customer when the broker secretly em­ ployed by his own son In London was at his side operating against him. One of the schemes of Sawyer, Jr., had been the simple one of cabling to New York orders for purchases or sales, rep­ resenting that they wdre for the account of customers, and that tho margins were on deposit In the London office. The fact was, of course, that these speculations were for Sawyer’s own ac­ count, and there was no margin to takethem up except the firm's credit. “We hoped up to the last," said a member of tbe firm, despondently, “but throe days ago we gsvejj up and knew that we were swamjied-. We postponed making an assignment as long as pos­ sible, so as to close up as many of our small contracts as we could and gather in tho loose ends. We havo done our best as honorable men, and we have sur­ rendered all onr Individual property to the assignee. But our collapse is com­ plete and final and the old house will never resume."

Cooley, the wife of the Chairman of the - Interstate Com­ merce Commission, died' at Ann Arbor recently, qged 60 years. Tbe cause of her death was cancer of the stomach. Mr*. Cooley was nearly a* well known as hrrhnsband throughout Michigan. As early as 1880 she was appointed a memberof tho Board of Manager* of tho State Industrial School for Girls by Gov. Jerome, and continued to serve as Pres­ ident of that board continuously since. She leaves six children. Mr. GAna, whose mill was recently burned out at Bay City, estimates his loss at 850,000 and says ho will rebuild.

The total number of pensioners now on the rolls 1*27,896, the largest ever known In the history of the office. As yet no claims have been pre­ sented under the new disability bill, which Mr. Harvey expects will ulti­ mately add 10,000 names to his roll. During the past three months the office ha* paid claims aggregating 81,500,000. and during the next quarter the amount will be increased to 82,000,000. The Tunnel House, a large frame ho­ tel at the entrance to the St. Clair River tunnel, was-burned the other night, and one of the female employes, unable to make her escape from one of the upper rooms, was burned to death.

Then theie ensued as vig­ orous a fight as any of them had ever seen, and when Lorn, with hi* nose still bleeding and with his eyes bulged out. mounted his horse, Turkey re­ marked: “When you want a lectio more, 1 reckon jots know wbar to find me." „ When the bruised lover bad wiped the blood off his nose and bad arranged his eves, hr asked Sallie to many him. “Ko," the girl answered, "I can't marry a man that will let a freckledface tiling whip him." Several weeks later Sallie was walk­ ing along a road. returning from a visit to a neighbor, when Turkey stepped from behind a tree. “what air yon doin’hero?” the girl indignantly asked. “I'm a bowin' an’ a scrapin’ to the puttiest girl in the world," he an­ swered. “Well, I want you to go on away an’ let me alone.” ’ “Ef wimin was let alone they would starve to death." h*b rejoined. “I wouldn’t." “Yes, yon would, ’cause you air too pntty to work. I think that rich wimin as you ought to-be treated jest like a blooded hoes—oughtenter work none.” “Thar-ain’t many men that thinks they oughtoner work none,” she an­ swered. “I know that, but yon bet -Em one. Say, when air you goiu’ to marry me?” “Never, you goosA you.” "Huh, er good big’ change from a turkey to a gexxe. Sav, down in my bottom tiel’, right up iu tho corner of the fence, right np under a box elder bush, thar is a flower that I call Sallie. Every day I fetch waler in.my hat an’ pour it, on the lieantifnl thing, an' I alius ray that when the frost comes an’ kills it thar will be another flower still puttier settin* right by my fire. Helloa, yonder comes Luke Barker. I reckon yon ’lowed he would be along here." “Yes, I did," she answered. “Why don’t you make this feller go away?" Luke asked, when he bad come up nnd spoken to the girl. “I can’t," she answered. “But I can." “Then make him.” Luke seized Tm key: Turkey grabbed him, slammed him against the ground, and then, when he got up, kicked him out of the road. That evening, when Luke went over to Benson's and asked Sallie to be his wife, she answered: “No. I won’t marry a man that lets a freckled-!ace feller whip him." The season Itegan to grow sober; the leave* were growing yellow. Sallie sat on the gallerv where tbe sunlight fell. Looking down the road she saw Turkey coming. He slouched into the yard and sat down on the steps of the porch. “Mornin’," said he. The girl merely nodded. “Say," be remarked, after a moment’s silence, “the leave* on that flower air btginuin’ to curl np. It didn’t relish the water I give it yiatidy.” “Well, what air you goto’to do about it?" she asked. ’ “Git another flower an’ put it on the hearth by the fire v.har the frost wont bite it." “ Whore air yon goto’ to git the flower ?" “Right here. Air you ready to go with mo? A Jestice of the Peace is n waitin’ fur us.” “I believe I will go with yon. because it’s so awful odd." she answered. When the cold-, weather came, the firelight in Turkey’s house shone upon a beautiful flower. S EAR the Oua­ chita liner, i n Arkansas, there once lived a gaunt, ungainly, and freckled­ faced boy named Phil Anderton, but he wah not permitted to en­ joy the simple pleasure of hear-, mg his. name, for he was bo freck_____ *. J that every one persisted in calling him Turkey­ Egg. Every girl to ths community made fun of him, and all tbe boys jeered at him, but he was but little concerned, seemingly, for he had the respect of the men—a respect which sober ruralisin ever pays to industry. Early nt morning, when the grass was blazing with dew, when the daylight twitter of the birds had hardly ceased in the trees, “Turkey* could be seen plowing hi* corn. He made no at­ tempt to go into society, and even during tho revival season, when every one was thought to be equal, he did not attempt to mingle with tho emo­ tional people that crowded the mourn­ ers. but quietly “hung around” on the outskirts of the sensation. One Sunday when the Benson girls and a nnmber’of young men sat on the porch, Lem Chidister; looking down the road, suddenly exclaimed: “Wall, if yande'r don’t come ole Tur­ key-Aig." ' “An’ he’s cornin’ right np to the house, too," said Sallie Benson, the handsomest girl in the Ouichita bot­ toms. “I wonder how he mustered up courage enough to come." Turkey stalked on up to tho porch. The boys began to laugh; the girls giggled. “Helloa," said Lem, “whicher way this here bright monjin’? We all Towed that you liked plowin' so well that you would furgit when Sunday corne." Turkey yawned and sat down on a bench. “Did you come to see paw?" Sallie asked, "No. I come to pec you,” Turkey an­ swered. ' / The giri* screamed and the boys roared. Sallie flushed scarlet. “You’ve come to see mo!” she ex­ claimed. rather indignantly. “That’s whut I Towed.” “ What do yon want to see me for?” Wm IinllEiiant. “ 'Cause Fm 18 year old to-day."

The Alpine hare, tho ermine anfl the Arctic fox turn white in the snowy sea-on. Among birds, the ptarmigan in win­ ter loses its summer plumage, which harmonizes so well with the lichencovered stones among which it hide*, and turns white, no very white that one may tramp through a flock lying on the’ snow without perceiving a single bird. The Siberian sable does not change color, in winter, -because it* habita aro such that it docs not Deed to become white.

Almost all other animals of the cat tribe frequent trees, .and those have often allotted skins, which help to blend them with the background of foliage.

That abomination of abom­ inations, the check-rein, is an unyield­ ing, agonizing fastener of tl*e animal’s head to his shoulders, bearing hardest on the most delicate, sensitive portion of the horse—his mouth. The horse raised aud driven or ridden bv a hu­ mane man can be guided, through pressure on the mouth, with a piece of strong thread. Humanity aside, tbe use of the check-rein is productive of disease. It leads to distortion of the windpipe to such a degree as to impede the respira­ tion ever afterwards, to excoriation of tne mouth and lips, and perhaps of the muscles of the face. If a bone in pulling a load, li^ht or heavy, has his head held up and in, he cannot throw his weight into the col­ e horse is often prevented from lar, and is hindered from giving his throwing his weight into the collar by a tight check-rein—a useless and pain­ ful incumbrance, introduced by vanity, and retained by thoughtlessness amounting to cruelty. /Tew of the London cab-driver* use check-reins, stent, with knowing them to be inconsistent with observed, ^work: and when one is observe-* be on invariably lie found[ to bo some poor animal, whose wearied and haggard kppearanc® is attempted to be discroised hv this instrument of tortuS. of them.

"When the years have rolled past, and bo finds' himself what he ha* so ardently wished for, he pause*, and, upon tak­ ing a retrospective vietf, h* as ardently longs for the joys, the happiness and. ala* I too often for the innocence of childhood. Oh! how many of us old, care-worn, sin-scarred and toughhearted specimens of the “genus homo” would give all we have toiled, schemed . and sinned for, since we arrived at man’s estate, to be again innocent children, and allowed the inestimable pleasure of a good, all-night glorious sleep, such as we used to enjoy when we were boys. Oh, for the days long gone, to recollection so vivid, iu which we watched the gap all day long, sit­ ting in the corner of the old wooden fence under the shade of the old elder bush, while we manufactured wonders of whistle* from green pax* paw bark, and cut our fingers with tbe new Bar­ low knife which papa bought for us on the Saturday before. We can shut our eyes now and see the old barn, the pump at the road­ side, with the horse trough near by; the wagon shed, granary and corn-crib combined; tho half-finished wheat rftk and. beyond all these, the dwelling with its’ log walls neatly painted and whitewashed—the very personification of that cleanliness which is next to godliness. And last, but not least, the ’old ash hopper, under which we used to play "house” with our little sister, before’ we got big enough to go to school and “mind the gap.” And the closing of our eyes seems to have opened our ears, for we can hear the cackling of the hens, who seem to be holding a convention over some newly laid eggs in the barn, and the steady “thud-thud" of the loom at the house gives early promise of some new cop­ peras-colored pants. Now we hear the “chuck,” “chuck" of the wagon coming, for the fourth time, well laden from tho wheat field, and, as it nears tho gap, there breaks forth from the house that which to boys is the sweetest of all music—“tho dinner horn.” Could we have but realized how happy we were then, we surely would have been contented; but such realiza­ tion could not be, and the only differ­ ence which time has wrought to our thoughts on tlio subject is, that then we looked forward to find happiness, whereas now we look backward, and our happiest moments now are spent in a retrospective contemplation of tho happiness which we enjoved at a time when we did not realize it. How it softens tho heart to recall those old du vs, and while I know that, in this world, happiness always seems to l>e either ahead or behind us, I do hope that in the world to come we may.t be allowed the happiness of again liv­ ing over our boyhood days, nnd fully realizing their pleasures at the time.— Caspar Cringle, in Detroit t ree Press. china tur ths Old Man.

N. H. There are not many men who have not recited in their school days Oliver Wendell Holmes* tribute to the gallant old veasel, beginning: "Old Ironsides” was built in Boston in the years 1794-7, under a law ap­ proved by Washington March 27,1794, and wm launched on the 20th of Sep­ tember, 1797. Tbe list of her cap­ tains contains the names of Nicholson, Talliot, 1’reble, 'Decatur, Rogers, Hull, Bainbridge aud others—men re­ nowned fornautical skill, bravery an 1 devotion to their country, and no or s of whom ever brought defeat or di honor upon the gallant craft intrust* d to his command. Her first gun at an enemy was di»charged August 3, 1804, when an a? tack was made on tbe American squad­ ron then in tbe Meditczrauean Sea b r the Tripoliton. forts. In 1812, shortly after the declaration of war with En­ gland, the Constitution met and cap­ tured the British ship Guerriere. aa action that will ever be memorable ia the records of naval warfare. Ths Constitution was under command it Capt. It-anc Hull, with a crew of 30) men. while the Guerriere was eoraruanded by Capt. J. R. Dacres, witU 400 men. Both Captains hud met so­ cially before the war, end had the.i discussed the met its of tlie two vei.sels. When they spoke of what woul I happen if, in the event of war, the f should come into collision, Hull said : “Take care ot that ship of yours, if I ever catch her in .the Constitution. ” Dacres laughed, and offered a hand­ some bet that if they ever did meet as antagonists his friend would find out his mistake. Hull refused a money wager, but offered to stake on the issue a hat Years after, when the conjectured encounter did o.-cur, and when, after a desperate fight, the En­ glish frigate became a total wreck, Capt. Dacres came on board the Con­ stitution and offered his sword to his captor, “No, no," said Hull, “I-will not take a sword from one who knows so well bow to use it. but IU trouble you for that hat!"—Bouton Herald. He Wanted ■ Wife. While Kate Cummings sat on her father's mowing machine, at the farm up in Winnebago County, Wisconsin, cutting the late clover for seed, she won the heart of Rufus Sloan, a farm­ hand. Rufus had & pitchfork and was tossing the hay where the sun had cured it sufficient to demand a turn­ ing. He knew all about that, aud could save clover for feed or seed etprnl to any man in the county, but he didn’t knoir as much as a child about winning a woman’s heart. Every time Kate came around, driving the team steadily and pushing the sickle a little farther into toe standing grain, Rufus would throw kisses to her and bestow other little attentions upon her. She did not like that, and said so. Rufus askeibher to stop the horses, as he had something to tell her. She complied, and then lie said he wanted a wife and offered her the proposition. She re­ fused him with scorn, and he jabbed her with the pitchfork. Kate scream­ ed ard the horse* started. Rufus, iu the hurry of avenging unrequited love, got on the wrong side of the mower, and bounded like a deer when he heard the rattlety-clip of the sickle­ bar right behind him. Kate saw her advantage and she chased him around the field, screaming that she would mow him down and cut his legs off with machine. She had a fair field and no favor, and if there had not been an occasional stump in the way she would have undoubtedly done as she threatened. After Rufus had raced around in front of that mowing ma­ chine for about half an hour he man­ aged to reach a fence and escape. He was arrested and tried for assault, and Kate brought her wounds, left by tho tines of the pitchfork, and had the pleasure of seeing the young num sent to jail. ____________________ “Maud, I should like to know the meauipgof this reception.” "Mt.

This was never more beautiful than just at toilet was made to appear still more present—at this coming of the autumnal days—and In this respect she Is like the birds. For, with all due deference to Lord Tennyson, It Is in autumn and not In spring that their plumage Is most beautiful. That Is to say, after they have had their outing. The-cry is now. “Adieu to the Queen!" and It is just at this time, when tho evening* begin to be a little fresh, that our fashionables make it a point to dis­ play some charming toilet* with line bite of coloring. Tho lady In the initial Illustration wears one of these costumes—a figured silk displaying a white vest.

The collar is of the Med ids pattern, but the rage for “Toby rtiffs." “Pierrette ruches," “Punchinello frills." and all sorts of feather aud luce neck­ lets bids fair to- interfere with high col­ lars.

Ned Rudman was fonder of flowers than of anvthing else in the world— excepting his mother. Whenever he could get a chance to do so he’d spend hours before the flower-stand* in the market, near which he lived, or in tho hot-houses of the good-natured florist, with whom he hod managed to strike up a friendly acquaintance which wore a few blocks further aitay. He was never tired of admiring the beau­ tiful rose*, praising the graceful lilies, and wondering at the wonderful or­ chids. And he went into raptures over the sweet-scouted violcta, the pink-tip|>ed daisies and the elfish pan­ sies. indeed, there was no flower too tiny or too humble to be loved by Ned. But thi* love, admirable a* it was, got him into trouble one day. It was the day in early winter when his Aunt Morion, his father’s sister, had come from some street away up among the hundreds, down town to visit his mother, and, her visit being entirely unexpected, there vss nothing in the house for a company dinner. So, while she was taking off her bon­ net and cloak, Mrs. Hodman, who, bvthe-way, wn as fond of flowers m her son was. took Ned aside and said to him: “Ned, you must go to market. ' Here’s 50 cents, nil the money I have in tho house. Take it aud do the best . you can with it. You might get some nice mutton chops, some sweet pota­ toes, some bannnai, and a pumpkin pie. And don't be any longer than you can help. It is half-past 11 now. and I want to have dinner by 1, sure." “Yes, ma’am," said Ned, and he put the 50 cents in his pocket, swung the market basket on bit arm, and started off. When he had gone Mrs. Rodman and her sister-in-law sat down to chat, and they talked nutil 12 o'clock. Then Mrs. Rodman got up and busied herself setting the table, but there was a big wrinkle un her brow whhh grew deep­ er as she went to the window to look for Ned. But no Ned was in sight. Another half-hour passed and still no signs of the boy. and the mother, as mothers will, organ to fear that same terrible accident had happened to him, when, just as the hands pointed to a quarter of 1, a merry whistle waa heard, the door was pushed open, and in rashed the truant with a flower-pot in which grew a flourishing rose-bush, bearing three lovely crimson roses, clasped tightly in Bis'arms. “Look, mother!" he cried, jovfully: “isn’t it beautiful ? And it only cost 50 cents. Smell the roses------ " But here his mother interrupted him to ask: “But where is the market bas­ ket? Where is the marketing? Where is our dinner? Ned stood dumfounded for a mo­ ment Then he said while his face became as red as the roses he held, “Oh, mother, I forgot all about it. The bntfiber wasn’t quite ready to cut the chopa so I left my basket and ran round to tho florist's to see if the bud on that queer new plant he's got had O]>ened yet, and it had and it’s lovely, and then I saw the rose-bush, and the florist said it was only fifty cents to me but seventy-five to any one else, and I knew how you loved crimson roses so I bought it and forgot all------ ” His mother interrupted him again. “Take that rose-bush,” she said in a stern voice, “back to the florist's. Then bring me as quickly as you can,my fifty cents, and the market basket. After that you may go to your own room and remain there till to-morrow morning.” Ned turned away without a word and MriU Rodman set out the boiled ham and pickles, and bread and cheese and apple-jelly and home-made ginger­ bread ujxm tho dining table. “I'm sorry to give you a cold lunch instead of a warm dinner,” she said to her sis­ ter-in-law, but you must blame your thoughtless nephew for it." But to her surprise Aunt Marion burst out laughing. “It is one of the funniest thing* 1 ever heard of in all my life." ahe said, “and as for the oold huich it's just delightful if you’ll only %whole thing after all.

In the afternoon Miss •- Papillon, of course, will drive to the Ca­ sino, and now I am happy to be able to lay before you three of her outdoor -dresses. Each is a work of art, and in each she appear* exalted and radiant, as if she knew that tho eyes of toe world were upon her, which they are. A woman's world Is smaller than ' a man’s, but it calls for Just as much thought. The first illustration after tho initial act* forth a very cffecMrc dress In *Bvergray peau de sole, with gold and silver embroidered galloon. The front portion ■of toe skirt Is in very finely pleated silk crepe of too same delicate gray tone. The hat is early French In shape, and serves to accentuate the delicate contour •of face and head. It will be noted that tho sleeves of this dress, as In fart of -each of toe throe costumes .worn by Miss Papillon, arc not very bouffant or set very high on the shoulders. It is a point to be borne In mind, and may be con­ fidently accepted as a hint from one who Jcnows, that the days of the exaggerated ■bouffant are numbered. In the second illustration this ardent but Intellectual devotee of fashion wears «n extremely elogant dress—a combina­ tion of heliotrope peau de sole with ficelle silk guipure. The guipure is ap­ plied in a very original and stylish man­ ner, and the sleeves are finished with great taste. The hat, which Is ficelle straw, Is trimmed with heliotrope Sow­ er* and white and dark violet striped ■surah ribbon. In the third and last Illustration, Miss ' r Pa pi Hou bursts upon our gain in a cos­ tume which merits In a high degree tho epithet original. But that originality doesn’t proven* the dress from being a charming creation, all the same. It ■consists of a combination of white pon­ gee »llk, black vtfvet, and gray peau de ^ole, as khown in the drawings The ef­ fect Is not at al! startling. 0n the con­ trary, it is an ensemble of I i vol I nwui, tempered by toe minor key of tho gray.

Clapp, Editor Boston Journal—Mv Dear Nir: I atu In receipt of your favor asking me If I can 'attend the annual banquet of the Boot and Shoe club of Boston In October. .You add that the. member* are ’In hearty sympathy with my views regarding the boat method of extending American trade, and would be glad to have me address them.1 “I regret that my engagements will not permit tne to accept the Invitation, but you wlH please thank the club for tho compliment they pay me. I am glad to hear that tho members of the club are interested in s wpltem of re­ ciprocal - trade with Latte America. They can do great good by counteract­ ing a certain phase of New England opinion, entertained at home as well as in Washington—an opinion which ’. must regard as In the highest degree unwise aud hurtful to New England interest*. New England Is to receive in the new tariff the amplest protection for every manufacturing industry with­ in her borders, both great and small, and It will. In my Judgment, to both in­ expedient and injurious for her repre­ sentatives to disregard a measure which will promote Western Interests. •T h«vo lately received a tetter from Mr. J. F. Jmbs of Sl Louis, a leading representative of the flour interests and president of the Into convention ot millers M. Minneapolis. Speak lug for the grain and flouring Interest of that great seetjon Mr. Imba says that •ad­ vices of recent dato from Cuba state that the duties now collected on Ameri­ can flour are at a higher rate than was first supposed to be thp case.’ And he adds; *1 respectfully submit that the American miller will be unable to re­ tain any part of tho Cuban flour trade unless Immediate relief I# secured.* “In view of these facts I* it possible that a protectionist Congress can even think of opening our markets to Cuba’s products free while allowing a great Western Interest to bo absolutely ex­ cluded from her market by a prohibi­ tory tariff? With reciprocity the West can annually sell many hundred thous­ and barrels of flour In the markets of Cuba and Porto Hico, together with a largo mass of other agricultural pro­ duct*. Without reciprocity she will be driven more and more from those mar­ kets. “Giving tho fullest protcctloir to ail Eastern interests, a* the.proposed tariff does, surely no man of good Judgment, certalnlv po protectionist of wise fore­ cast, wishes to expose a Wostera In­ terest to serious Injury, especially when it Is manifestly easy to protect and pro­ mote It—manifestly easy because at this very time tho boards of trade, tho cham­ bers of commerce, and public opinion in Havana are demanding reciprocal trade with tjie United States. I select Cuba and Port Rico for examples be­ cause In certain quarters It has been said that, w>lle wo might secure reelprocy wltivsbmo little countries In South America, wo could do nothing with the Spanish islands. Lot us at least give the Spanish islands an opportunity to speak for themselves. “Certain wise men ask: How can we sell farm product* in South America when the samo things ago uroduced there? Cereals are undoubtedly grown in the southernmost parts of South. America,, but the wlse«men will remem­ ber thavccreals aud sugar do not grow in the same soli, and that tho sugar countries of South and Central America and the West India Islands contain 40.­ 000.001 of people, who Import the larg­ est portion of their breadstuff^ Indeed, the largest part of the sugar product of all Latin America Is at our doors, and we can greatly enlarge our exchanges there if Congress will give us tho op­ portunity for reciprocal trade. “I do nptmean.in anything I have said, to Imply that reciprocity Is only a Western interest. As I remarked In a note to Sepacor Frye. It will priTveFcneIlcial and profitable both to the farm and th.e shop. What, forinatance, could bo more natural or more Just than that in giving a free market in the United State* to hides from the Argen­ tine Republic we shouty nsk tho Argen­ tine Republic to give a better market than wo now have for tho product of leather from the United States? The many forms in which our business in­ terests will be promoted by reciprocity cannot be known until the active com­ mercial men of the United States shall liave developed those forms by Investi­ gation and experience. We shall not realize the full benefit of tho pollcv in a day or a year, but shall we therefore throw away counties* millions of trade, iu addition to tho $CO,OO0.<)OO we have already thrown away, and then Ig­ norantly declare, without trial that the system won’t work? “Finally, there Is one fact that should have great weight, especially with the protectionists. Every free­ trader In the Senate voted agaiust the reciprocity provision. The free-trade papers throughout tho country are showing determined hostility to lt_ It Is evident tnat the free-trade Senators aud the free-trade papers have a sued fie reason for their course. They know and feel that, with a system of reciprocity established and growing, their policy ol free trade re­ ceive* a most serious blow. The pro­ tectionist who opposes reciprocity In the form in which It Is now presented knocks away one of the strongest sup­ ports of bis system. The enactment of reciprocity Is the safeguard of protec­ tion. The defeat of reciprocity is the opportunity of free trade. ••Your* verv respectfully, “JameiTu.

A singti!Ar experiment made by a surgeon in Paris may throw some light on the question when an execu* tedjcrimlnal Is to be pronounced dead. Jacques Constant was guillotined for murder and robery. Within one min­ ute after the knife had struck off his head his body was given to Professor Gley and Couturrier, both eminent men of science. For six minutes af­ ter the body came into their custody Dr. Gley declares that he was able to feel the heart beating. But a man who has no head cannot Ire alive, cer­ tainly. even though his hr art does beat, and Jacques Constant must be pronounced undoubtedly dead when the doctors received him. The two professors discovered a cu­ rious fact never before announced, at least not generally known. From the fact that the heart contin­ ued beating for six minutes after the patient was headless Urey deducted that the adricles and vlrtlcles of the heart contract Independently of etch other. THE HOTTEST REGION. Ckreful obaervation and comparisons made by scientific Americana prove that the hottest region on the earth Is on the southwestern coast of Perela, where Persia borders the gulf of the same name.

Strictly speaking, the movement of the clock iaa nautical one. It ta con­ structed with a balance wheel on the principle of a watch; consequently the pitching and tosaing sea will not effect the movement. The escapement is a demi-chronometer. jeweled in all it* principal parte, and highly finished.

Another‘fea­ ture which will be appreciated by mariners, which ia also an improve­ ment. is that of making tire hour band free of its twin, the minute hand, iu regulating the clock. This enables them to turn toe clock back or for­ ward an hour without disturbing the minute hand, as is required to be done every day in crowing; the various de­ grees of longitude during a voyag>. The regulation of the bands and bella is commanded by a aeries of wheels, bidden in a metal closet opening on one side of the case. An ingenious device has been contrived to open toe betel of the clock, so that the minute hand can be turned in regulaling it When not required to be open it ia locked by a minute lock io the lower part. By insertinga small hook-like key and giv­ ing it a turn the cato ia unlocked. Two other hooka are placed in the aides, and the plate glass and bezel drawn out about an inch. Then by a bidden hinge on toe top the piece can be raised. The clock is incased in a mahogany box and the back ia of steel.

Ha is tbe new man on horseback come to dazzle, to charm, perhaps, to trans­ form Europe. How many a time, during his rapid journeys north and routh, and in mornings and evenings full of care and exhausting ceremony, his heart must turn back with longing to tho old pal­ ace opposite the Arsenal in Berlin, in which his father lived for so many years and through the stately apart­ ments in which he ranged freely when a little Child. Hero Frederick William Victor Al­ bert, commonly called Prince William, was born January *27, 1859. His home । was more homelike than moat palaces, but the breath of war had blown through it, as through every other ■■ the wars of 1813 and 1815, interspersed with the medallions of Humboldt and ’ other savants of Berlin. In the apartments of his mother the little Prince had a chance to acquire English tastes. All the surroundings were severely British. In ono small, apartment, used far boudoir and bed­ room, Wilhelm doubtless passed many childish hours gazing out upon the Arsenal or the University, or amusing himself with the collections of Iceland mow, shells from the Isle of Wight, coral necklaces and English keepsakes, with which the etageres were filbxl. In the Princess’ rooms there were no pictures; in her youth she seemed not to care for them. ■ In the opposite wing were tho study and the private rooms of “Papa Fritz,” in which the young Wilhelm was now and then nl'owed, as a special favor, to show his white-haired little pate.

Wolf, fearful of the strong winds and hail around him, decided to xqake a landing-as soon as possible. “There was nothing but wood* and woods under nr." he said, subsequeutlv. “The balloon dmoended with violent rapidity. I finally discovered a little clearing on a steep mountain aide and prepared to anchor. The balloon descended more slowly, and the people who had observed us hur• , * A.i __ J _____ K. riod together underneath to help us land. I drew the ventilator a httle further open and motioned to Schmit/ to get out. Dej»enheuer alighted, and all was well, when suddenly a whirl­ wind struck us. A terrible jerk sends me on my back in the car. I jump up to find all things swimming down, down below me, and two men clinging helplessly to the edge of the ear. I cateh tho nearest one, a peaaant who tried to assist in the lauding. Too late! HU strength is gone; he lets go. and I hear with horrible distinct­ ness the mfiffled thud of his body on the ground. ' “My heart aickens, but I rally to save 'my friend Schmitz, who still sticks to the car’s side. Already tho clouds are sinking beneath us.’ Wo are at least two miles above the earth. I trv to raise Schmitz into the car, but lie has sunk so far down from the edge that I can hardly grasp his wrists, and he is too weak to make an effort for himself. Both of us groan our despair, for all seems over. Slowly and painfully I raise him a little, set my teeth in the back of hi, coat, and endeavor to bind him fast with the storm line. A few momenta drag by in hope and despair, and I finally succeed in fastening the rope under his arms and in tying him so to tho car. There is no safety in the device, however, for were Schmitz to lose consciousness for an instant his body would relax and he would slip away. I call to him, “Spreadout your arms! Spread out your arms!" I hear his body move in response to my ad­ monition. but his voice is lost to me. "All this has occupied twenty-five minutes, aud we have in' the meantime been slipping upward. Everything now depends upon our making a quick landing. I draw open the valve, and wo begin falling. We plunge into a great storm. Tho balloon spins around in circles, and sways alwnt like a drunken man. Rain, hail, thunder, and lightning sweep over us. The balloon reel, so that I must lie on my face to remain in the car. “ ‘Peter! Peter!” I call to mv friend. •Hold fast! Only hold fast!’ ’ “No response, for he cannot hear me. The agitation of the balloon has loos­ ened the rope and he has sagged back again, down the side of the car, so I can only see his finger-tipson the edge. I creep to the side of the car, seize bis right with my left hand, and with my .right hand and teeth I tug at tha volve. “ ‘I cannot holdout longer,’ comes in a weak voice from Schmitz; ‘I am slip­ ping away.’ . “ ‘One minute, only a minute more,’ I cry back, ‘and we will be there.’ “The nearer we come to the ground, however, the more violent becomes the oscillation of the balloon. Finally we slip over a house, a barn, and drop like a shot to the ground. “ Let go.’I shout to Schmitz, 'and jump away from tho anchor.’ "He obeys, and the balloon, 195 pounds lighter, soars upward. I pull at the valve with all my strength till the anchor catches a small tree. Bnt the tree gives way, and with the re­ bound the car springs up to the bal­ loon, and for a moment I hang ou al­ most by my teeth. Tho anchor catches again in a tree. Again a jerk, a crack, a rebound, and I am tossed about like a ball. Once more the anchor catches. I find myself just above the top of a dense old cedar. Head first I dive into the branches and fall from bongh to liongh till 1 reach the ground. The anchor rattles near me. Another tree breaks, and the balloon sails off to the northeast. “I had landed near Clive. In an hour I had the whole neighborhood out looking for Schmitz. He was not to lie found.' ‘Dead.’ I thought, as I limped painfully along between two peasants in the direction of the Overatn "railway station. Presently a group of men and women hurry toward us from a side street. Three ’of them were half carrying a man.

The two often made excursions to­ gether among the toilers. When he was seven vearn old the young Prince was under tho instruction of Dr. Hinzpeter, for whom he conceived a friendship which has grown with his veani, and which has earned much jealousy of the tutor in recent times. . Major General Von Stolberg was tbe Prince's military governor, and the young man’s marked predilection for military studies received a great im­ petus from tins able soldier. After his confirmation in 1874, the Prince was sent with his brother. Prince Henry, who is now the Ad­ miral, to the’ Gymnasium at Cassel, where he pawXi his examinations in 1877. This waa the first time that any German prince had ever been sent to • public school. He eontinued his studies in the Uni- l> w ell try to move a mountain. Mr. F. Y. Dabney, iu "Battles aud leaders of tho Civil War," gives an instance of the efficacy of an encouraging word and exam vie. The story is interesting also as setting in a favorable light one of tho most famous of tbe Confederate Generals. The incident occurred' on the morn­ ing after the battle of Williamsburg. Late in the preceding afternoon gen­ eral orders had been issued by Gen. Joseph E. Johnston, informing us of the intended retrograde movement on the next morning. 'Among the instruc­ tions was one to tbe effect that any gun eaisaon. or quartermaster or com­ missary wagon, which might become set in the mud so as to imj>ede the line of march, must be . destroyed at once. Iu other words, the road must be kept clear. The writer was a Lieutenant in Snowden Andrews’ battery of light artillery, and as such commanded one section of two guns, which, with their caissons, required four teams of six horses each. One of these teams was notoriously a eak,- and when the gen­ eral orders were read I became very anxious about it, especially as nothing is considered more humiliating to a battery than to have to part with a por­ tion of its equipment, no matter what the cause may be. When the retreat commenced, there­ fore, I endeavored to keep all tho men of my section we'.*, in hand and ready to assist ata mome«t*s notice. For six miles north o: Williamsburg the entire army was falling back over a single road, and as there had been frequent rains this road was badly.cut up and the mud in many-places was up to the axles of the guns. Finally mv weak team balked, with the gun in a deep hole., Even- effort was made by the driver to dislodge the gun, but without avail; and when I got to the wheels -with as many men as could be utilized, I found that'tho homes could not be made to work in concert. The whole line to tho rear was at a dead stand-still, when I observed a party of mounted officers coming down the road from the front, and presently I recognized Gen. Johnston at their head. We all were covered with mud and straining every muscle to extricate the gun, when the General, resplen­ dent in uniform, white gauntlets and polished cavalry boots, iodo up and halted by our aide. 1 gave tho military aolnte and stood like a criminal awaiting sentence. To my surprise' he remarked, in a -very kindly tone: "Well, Lieutenant, you seem to be in trouble.” “Yes, sir," I replied, “and I am afraid we shall have to abandon this gun." "Oh. no, I reckon not! Let me see what I can do." Thereupon he leaped from his horse,, waded out into tbe mire, seized one of the wheel-spokes, covered as it waa with mud, and called out: “Now, boys, all together!" The effect was magical, and the next moment tho gun jnm)>ed clear of the mud-hole. After that our buttery used to swear by “Old Joe." �CUR..IO Th’ ether t,y.: UH ’arc JlghtJu’ our pipes an’ crackin’ jokt*.

In tho world of fashion tho aoul of the dying year turns to the con­ templation of jackets and wraps. Na­ ture never neglects her orm, and woman is nature’s favorite. Man has becomo too much of a mental machine to Inter­ est nature any more.

Hence, in the •almanac of fashion read: “About this time look for .a fine display of jackets ’and wraps in assorted colors to suit tho ■costume. " And, speaking of modish coverings for the shoulders, I should say a word about the stylish mantelet which promises to b’ such a favorite. Ills a combination garment consisting usually of doth and silk, although plush will al*g be used in.a color harmonizing with the dress. The mantelet is made up of a cloth cape, tucked at the edge, cominc to a polnt at the waist and furnished with a Medlcis collar. A very large capuchon consisting of two rows of pongee silk, commencing at a point on the back edge of the cape, are carried over the shoul­ ders and down the front, the top flonuw cascading nearly to the knees. The s apnehnn has a V-ahaped plastron and pointed yoke, both of which should be properly embroidered. Increased cle.gauev Is obtained by making the pointed yoke and plastron of mcrvelllcnx and •embroidering It with gold or open gimp work. Dark cloth if used should be re­ lieved by a lighter color In the silk and gayer tones in the embroidery. All In all. this mantelet Is a very attractive little wrap, full of chic, and just the thing for the fresh October days when The avenue again takes on I talon g-mlssed glory and the stranger mistakes our throngs of church goers for the returning guerta of some gay fete. Pllwe effects still remain very modish. 'The lady of the Initial wears an ex­ tremely stylish white woolen jacket with revere and cuffs in olive-green satin, eihbroldered with white roses and green leaves. The skirt Is made of a striped faille to match the jacket. In thia cos­ tume there Is a finr-tao-u* plisse effect gained by having a vest of black pongee which la generously displayed by the open hang of tho charming Jacket. Plisse fichus of ganzo, kept in place by bands of velvet and plisse bibs, serve ad­ mirably to set off a somber dress. JFbo Marie Antoinette fichu will remain a fa­ vorite, the material being a mousseline de sole, edged with a plisse of the same. The second Illustration sets forth an­ other plisse' effect. In this case the cos­ tume consists of mauve peau do sole, with an underskirt and shoulder orna­ ment in white plisse silk tulle, producing ■a delightfully artistic combination. The »i:nshade conform* by being In mauve *11 k covered by white plisse silk gauze. The bat worn with this lovely dress is a pale-gray felt with black velvet ribboas and ifierrles iwid leaves. Such a costume as this deserves to be called the swan’s note of the dying season, and ft almost .makes us wish that cold winds would never come to Vex us. But then, cold -winds mean furs, and every woman looks -well In a fitr-trlmmed costume. There are to be some charming comWnatlons of cloth and silk this half sea­ son.

Speaking of those plain, long clonks reminds me of an English­ man's remark upon attending a concert at the Boston Music Hall, and observing tho traneformatlon scene when the Indies laid off their long cloaks and appeared in evening dress. Said he: “I enjoyed It more than I did the famous ballet In •Robert le Diable.'"

Gray gloves and an indigo and white parasol com­ plete this altogether lovely attire. Tho little miss Is very, becomingly and orig­ inally dressed in a combination of garnet serge, bordered with white surah bands, lined with block chenille, or black and white striped fabric.

Again the architect's brain has evolved the plan, again the great piles of lumber are seen on tbc ground, and again hammer and saw are beard articulating the skeleton of the corfi marvel. This time the pal­ ace will look like a bit of scenery from the banks of the Bosphorus, for the design is that of a great Turkish mosque, and from its slender min­ arets and towering dome one might almost expect to hear the voice of the muezzin calling all true believers to •prayer. But it Is dedicated to the prophet of agriculture, and not to the prophet of Islam; to Mondamin, not Mohammed. By the time this reaches our read­ ers the work will be well under way. A great mosque, elegant in form, broad, lofty and in every way spacious In di­ mensions, is built of—what? Simply rough lumber! It is an anchltectural anomaly. Shut your eyes and epter and from the evidence of your nostrils you will imagine you’rself in some great barn filled with fragrant hay and newgarnered grain. Trust your ears and you will .imagine it a workshop from the constant tapping of innumerable hammers and buzzing of saws. Open your eyes and you will exclaim, “It is fairyland!” In place of the piles of lumber are such quantities of heterogeneous truck that it seems a dozen agricultural fair exhibits reduced to chaos. Piles of cornstalks, and of corn in the ear in different colored lota— in one pile red ears, in another yellow, in another white, or blue or “calico corn," or pop­ corn, are daily deposited on the grounds. Here some stacks of sorghum and wheat and harley and rye. Quan­ tities of millet and other marsh grass appear. Every kind of grass or cereal h» brought here from all the surround­ ing country, and the wonderful task begins. Over yonder is a little buzz saw run by an electric motor. It has a hopper like a corn shelter, and a man feeds it with ears of corn. They come out neatly split in the middle, just as a long cucumber might be sliced In two with a knife. Near him is another man at a machine similar to those which grocers use for cutting plug tobacco. He is cutting off traverse sections of ears of corn jn cylindrical blocks of uni form length. These slabs and blocks play an important part in rendering beatlful this Temple of Ceres. You think sqme of the patterns done in cut shingles on Queen Anne cot­ tages now-a-days pretty, don’t you? Yet on the Corn Palace they are put to by designs in blocks and slabs of corn on a backing of pine. A man nails on four half ears side by side, with their fiat side to the wall, and they make a square. These ron up and down. Run the next square horizontally and you have another square of different appearances. Cover a large space with these alternating squares or diamonds and a curious Imbricated ap­ pearance is given which is wonderfully beautiful even when done in only one color. But itnmagine the gorgeous effect when all the colters found in corn are used by people who are the । greatest masters of such decorative art ' in the world. Diverge these slabs of corn from a com­ mon center and you have a star, and nothing but the figures in a kaleido­ scope can vie with the' designs here found in either number or beauty. Still more striking effects are produced by the uso of the cylindrical blocks. Each block end shows the white cob with a ring of red or blue or yellow around it. You see at a glance how this form tends itself to decoiative purposes. x You look at a column and you think it Is marbel at the top gradually shad­ ing down to deepest carnelian at the bottom. Yet it is nothing but corn. A model of a beautiful boat-house is worked out in every particular. Flags in red, white and blue, a 10inch cannon, yellow as brass outside and blue as steel within; here you think surely, some other substance has been used. Step closer and you will see that the brass and steel are made by fitting kernels of corn closely together and fastening each kernel in place with a tack. There are rich brown spaces covered with flax show­ ing the balls. Others are bright green —these are cane. The rays of yellow light shooting out from the sun up there are yellow cornstalks. Golden wheat and rye and millet and barley are used in a thousand ways. Not In geometrical patterns alone. Landscapes of astonishing beauty are done In natural colors by the fair artists of Sioux City; but in­ stead of oils and water colors they are hay and corn and Grass. And they need nothing else, for their success is perfect. Palace. It* style will be graceful and beautiful In the bigbeet degree. It* decorations will exceed anything of its kind ever seen.

He'will look across a clear space of nearly a hun­ dred feet, and on the opposite side, dazzling with incandescent lights, he will see a waterfall pouring into a lake peopled with fish. There will be fairy grottoes, each one having a special at­ traction. Away up in the top of the lofty dome will be an artificial sky studded with [electric stars. Strains of sweet music will mingle with the sound of the falling waters, and around will be arranged the Useful and beau­ tiful treasures of a score of states. OEMS IN ARIZONA. ed With Amothyeta. One day last week, upon falling io with Colonel Manuel Gomez, of Parita, a Mexican mining engineer, who has lately been traveling extensively in Arizona and Mexico, investigating the mineral resources of that part of the country in tbe interest of some Eastern capitalists, I asked ’ him what truth there was in the report that precious stones in paying quantities could be found in Arizona.. He said: “I was not looking for precious stones, but I picked up some [informa­ tion about them, for I go on the princi­ ple that no sort of general informa­ tion can do a man harm. My exper­ ience in Brazil, however, taught me that wherever there were precious stones to be found there was a much larger number of fairy stories afloat as to the value of the ‘finds.’ You know that precious atones are simply crystilizationa. and with the exception of the diamond, which is pure carbon, they are water formations, colored with some mineral or vegetable impreg­ nations. Those found in Arizona are spinal rabies, sapphires, emeralds, tur* quoisea, an excellent garnet, amethysts and small pearls. Tiie ruby has been found in large sizes up to fourteen car­ ats, but much inferior to tbe Burmah rubies. The sapphires, emeralds and pearls are very small, and the ame­ thyst crystals very large. They are ofieu found in unis' nests in the des­ erts, ms those industrious insects have a habit of carrying shining stones to their nests. Larger turquoises are found thrie limn any where else, but very light in color. The majority of them are greenish, but many of them are light blue. The rubies, sapphires and emeralds are corundums, and are generally found in granite country. The pearls are found along with petri tied clams and oysteis, showing that the countrv has been, at some remote Eriod, under water. I have been told _ geologists that Arizona was the first land appearing above the waters in historic ages. The turquois is found in seams of an eighth of an inch to four inches in width. The Spaniards mined them at a depth of about thirty feet. There are turquoise mines in both New Mexico and Arizona, which have long been abandoned, and in which are found Indian hammers, made of stone, showing that the Indians made them, Tbe large torquoise set in the Spanish crown, and which is as large as a pig­ eon’s egg, is supposed to have come from Arizona. Torqnoises are very popular among the Indians, and a good­ sized perfect stone can generally be traded for a pony to some of the chiefs. About twelve years ago some unscrup­ ulous Eastern man, finding that corun­ dums aje in the desert, got up a dia­ mond excitement, scattered some small rough diamonds at certain points, and on the strength of the “finds” organ­ ized a diamond-mining company. He is said to have made money out of it, but the company didn’t. The emer­ alds found in Arizona are of very goo.) quality and very clear, but they are small. In the eastern part of the Territory, near where most of tbe gems are found, there is a petrified forest some 1.800 acies in extent, the major part of which seem to have been California redwood. Tli*re are a number of petrified trees lying about that locality that are 100 feet long and some are 4 feet thick at the butt. Where these trees are hol­ low, the inside is often coated with ciystals—amethvst, topaz orblnck aud white. Some of these are very large. Tiie trees take a very high polish, and have been used for table tops and oth­ er ornamental purposes, but on acconnt of their hardness, and the necessarily great expense of transportation and working, they are not used so much as their beauty would warrant.

And it' fT?. is also probable! that not one out of ten thousand who asked that question received an approx­ imately intelligent. To gratify m y own curiosity, I havo made con sld— erabln research among records which relate to Alexander Selkirk, whoso solitary sojourn upon the Island of Juan Fernandez furnlshetl thy nucleus for the most famous tale of adventure which the world ha* ever read, and can but think that many who havo asked themselves tbo question, how much of Robinson Crusoe I* true? will find Interest and pleasure in a bylcf statement of th* facts of the strange career of tho Scottish sailor who served as Daniel Defoe's “original" Robinson Crusoe. Selkirk’s birthplace was In tho little seaport town. Largo, county of Fife, Scotland, and the year, of hl* birth 167<J, and here ho spent the first thirteen year* of hl* life. According to an ancient Scottish su­ perstition, a seventh aon, born without an intervening daughter, wa* bound to be a favorite of fata, and would become a great man. As the circumstances of Alexander’s birth met all .tho require­ ments of tho tradition, it is not strange that Mrs. Selkirk secretly nursed large hope* for her seventh lad, notwithstand­ ing the fact that her husband John, a hard, practical, and high-tempered old shoemaker, held such dreams to be non­ sense, and determined that Alexander should settle down to tho shoemaker's bench, and learn a quiet, honest trade. Thus Alexander and his future became a bode of contention between the hard, unloving, and sometimes cruel, old Scotchman and hl* gentle, shrinking wife, whose heart was full of dream* for her. pet son. This unfortunate state of family feel­ ing could have but one result: it made Alexander disobedient, headstrong, and discontented with life and all its whole­ some restraints and occupations and made him determined to break away and enter upon the groat career before him. By the time Alexander reached tho age of nineteen, he had acquired a fair knowledge of reading, writing, arithme­ tic, and considerable Information con­ cerning navigation, together with a wellmerited reputation for being a wild boy. In England and Scotland the records of the churches wore carefully kept and preserved, and In the Presbyterian .Church. In which John Selkirk was an “elder," Is the following entry: “August 25, 1695. Alexander Seicralg, son of John Sclcraig. Elder, cited to appear before the session for Inde­ dent conduct In church.’’ This “Indqccnt conduct" seems to have been laughing aloud. Two day* later another entry was made: “August 37lh. Alexander Sclcraig calk'd out; did not appear, having gone to sea. Continued until his return." The citation appears to havo been .thoroughly outlawed, for. according to an old Scottish narrative, Alexander spent tho next six years sconMng Hie southern seas with buccaneer^ who were a sort of scmi-legalizod plratns. But when ho did return Alexander made up In misconduct for all time lost during his absence. Ho quarreled with a half-witted brother and pounded him with a stick. For this he was sentenced by tho sessions of the church to stand up and face the whole Sabbath congrega­ tion of the church—as humiliating a Eunlshment as the church dignitaries new how to inflic- upon a young man of spirit. But young Selkirk took this bitter medicine with brazen stoltism. This was in November, 1701; and the next year found him In England, booked for sea under the standard of Damplcr, one of the most celebrated characters In all the annals of buccaneering. Franco and Spain were then at war with England and other northern coftutrlcs, and Damplcr secured permis­ sion from the crown to prey upon French and Spanish merchantmen and colonies.’ Wealthy London '■ gentlemen furnished him with two twenty-six gun vessels. Fame and St. George. Damplcr had associated with him a man named Pulling, who was lo command the former wm cordially hated by the entire crew. To add to the general discontent, Sel­ kirk dreamed that tho voyage was to be Ill-fated, and In those days dreams counted for much more than they do now. After some -WM.- three ....vw months w. of bootless and storm-tossod sailing, the Cinque | Ports put into a bar of tbo Island of j Juan Fernandez to wood and repair i hatchet; a knife, a kettle, a flip can, a Bible, some book* on devotion and one or two books on navigation, and some mathematical instruments.'* Ho built himself two huts of pimento wood, and nnc, narrative, not authentic, however, gives a description of his cave, which Is not mentioned in the most trust­ worthy account. Selkirk found an abundance of trop­ ical fruits on his island, and also numer- Ugc*. ./ For nearly two year* .Selkirk kept quit? closely to the beach and watched for a friendly soli; but gradually he be­ came more and more'content with his solitary lot, and found a joy in the quiot round of the days, which ho spent in chasing the wild goat* and domesticating them, taming cats, adding to bl* com­ fort*. reading bl* Bible, and praying aloud. Although he several, time*. caught sighvof a sail upon the distant horizon, only two ship* ever dropped anchor In lii* harbor previous tb bls deliverance,* which occurred at 2 o'clock on the aftcrnoon of January 31, 1709. TImjm ship* wore both Spanish vessels, and would have carried him into a fearful slavery had he been Indiscreet enough to havo SceMV Tim discontent among the crows run high, and would probably have resulted in outright mutiny while on the Island, had not a French vessel hove In sight. In the haste and confusion of giving her chase, live or six of the sailors who had strayed into the interior of the Island were left behind, but Selkirk wn not one of them. After a severe engagement, tho French merchantman managed to escape. They turned about and were going to put into the bay at Juan Fernandez again, when they discovered two immense French vessels, heavily gunned, at anchor there. The pirate crafts lost no time In pul- ting leagues between them and tho French vessels and the six of their own men whom they had left behind. After this the Cinque Ports hod vary­ Just aa they were ready to set ing fortunes, until she again dropped <nrt upon their plundering expedition. anchor at J uan Fernandez. September, Pulling and Damplcr quarreled, and 1704, to find that four of tbc men whom the former sailed away, to unknown they had left behind six months before shores, with tho Fame, and left Dampier had been captured by the French, aud to secure another vessel. This he did. the other two had spent six months in She wai called the Cinque Ports, and the wild pleasures of seal and goat hunt­ was officered as follows: “Charles Pick­ ing, fishing and^ndolence, living on the ering.

In a moment of blind and desperate longing lo escape from all thia strife, Selkirk asked to tie loft behind, with his scanty effects, upon the island. But nq sooner had hi* request, boon granted, and the ship about to hoist an­ chor, than a full sense of his folly and tho maddening realization of hl* desola­ tion and peril camo over him, and he cried and entreated with outstretched hands to bo taken aboard.

But despite his caution, he was, on one of these occasions, discovered and chased, and would probably havo been taken had It not been for his superior swiftness of foot. On the 31st of January, 1709. after Selkirk had been on tho island four years and about three months, he watched the ships. Ihe Duke and the Duchess, ride into his little harbor and send boats asltore. He knew the men to be Englishmen, and hastened to welcome them. At first they wore shocked by his strange appearance, but soon learned his story and took., him almard the Duke, on which Damplcr, whose great expedition had turned out disas­ trously, was acting as pilot. Ou Dampier's recommendation Selkirk was appointed mate and gained a fortune from the Spanish vessels which they captured In the next four years. tn 1712 he returned secretly to Largo, and was sitting in tho old church .when discovered by his aged and* devoted mother, whose affection was tbo strong to bo suppressed, even In the gaze of the whole kirkful of neighbor*. Here, in his native town, Selkirk lived for some three years, spending most 6f his time In solitary rambles about tho wildest Scottish glens in his country, or in sailing alone along tho rugged shore, shunning human society and sighing for the solitude of his peaceful Isle. Not all of his rambles, howev'er. were entirely solitary. Ho occasionally fell in with a lass who was tending her moth­ er's cow, and finally fell In love with her, and persuaded her to go with him, secretly to London, where It Is supposed they lived together until her death. In 1724 Frances Candls, a fashionable woman, came to Largo to prove her right to Selkirk’s property, under a will, dated Dec. 12, 1720.

For a time all went on well. At length a lady came to the store to purchase a silk dreas, and the young man waited upon her. The price demanded was agreed to, and ho proceeded to fold the goods. He disyovered before he bad finished a flaw io the silk, and, pointing ii ont to tho lady, said: “Madam, -I deem it my duty to tell you there is a fracture in the »ilk.” The merchant overheard the remark, says the New York Ledger, and imme­ diately wrote to the father of the yonng man to come and take him home, “for,” said he, “he will never make a merchant.” The father, who bad ever reposed confidence in his son. was much grieved and battened to tbe city to be informed of his deficiencies. “Why* will be not make a merchant?” asked be. “Because be has no tact," was the answer. "Only a day or two ago he told n lady, voluntarily, who was buy­ ing silk of him, that the goods were damaged, and I lost a bargain. Pur­ chasers must look ont for themselves. If they cannot discover flaws it would l>e foolishness of me to tell them of their existence." “And is that all the fault?" asked tbe parent. “Yes.” answered the merchant; “he is very well in other respects." "Then I love my eon better than ever, and I thank yon for telling ma of the matter. I wonld not have him an­ other day in your store for the world." Now and then yon will find a man who will bully aud fight at the. same time. Such a chap wm “Ixip-Shouldered Bill,’’ as we called him in Mon­ tana.

For years and years The News has been considered, and we believe justly so, the best local newspaper in Barry or Eaton counties. For this reason alone it has been able to hold a sub­ scription list of 1,800 at 31.50 per year, when any other paper in the territory in which it circulated could be bought fortl or less. Of course it has seemed toour patrons as though our price was rather high, compared with other papers and many complaints have been made to us, still we did not feel that we could benefit ourselves by cut­ ting down the price. Outside of these two counties the almost universal price of local papers throughout the state is 31.50 per year, and it is as low as a good paper ought to l>e made. However, we have come to the con-, elusion tnat we would finally make the reduction so often asked for, and we now offer you The Nashville News for E. M. Parker, of Iowa, has purchased of H. E. Harris the Boise stock of hardware and all bands are now busy taking inventory. Mr. Parker is a stirring young business man, full of push, and will no doubt keep that re­ liable place of business up to Its stand­ ard. . Since the election law has been de­ clared constitutional, the provision re­ quiring booths In eyery polling place remains operative and the township officers are arranging to purchase the same in compliance therewith. Eight booths will lie necessary-one for each hundred voters or fraction thereof. It may be the weather has some­ thing to do withit, but Nashville bus­ iness men seem to have been unusually pugnacious this week. Two “scraps” among leading citizens have occurred in the past two days, but as no serious results have followed and no arrests, we withhold names and circumstances. B. F. Reynolds, while sitting in his residence, Sunday evening was aroused by a noise at the back door. He get up, opened the door, and on the screen door sat a robin.

About 150 were in attendance and though the house was tilled to over­ flow i ng there was plenty of room for everybody,to have a good time, and the wants of the inner man were fully appeased. An exchange says: “Some go to church to weep, while others go to sleep. -Some go their wives toplease, their conscience others go to ease. Some go to tell their woes, others go to show their clothes. Some go to hear the preacher, others like the solo screecher. Boys go to reconnoiter, girls go lieo^use they oughter. Many go for sage reflections, precious few to help collection." The runaway, which caused so much excitement Tuesday noon, we are hap­ py to state, done no damage. The team that ran away was owned by Chas. S. Spellman, and was hitched to a lumber wagon, near the depot, and becoming frightened at the cars, they jerked away breaking the run straps that held them, and started down Main street. They were stopped near the iron bridge. There was a surprise party at D. R. Burkert’s last Wednesday, and a very enjoyable time was had by all present. There were present from out of town, Mr. and Mra.

There are not many Amer!cans who have an adequate idea of the number and power of British trade* unions. The rapid development of,these organ* ixatJons furnishes an exceedingly in­ teresting study. The law known as the Trades Unions act was passed by Parliament in 1871. Under this law labor unions were recognized as legal. Tbe class legislation which had hith­ erto been so hostile to them was re­ pealed. The effect was at once apparent. All over the United Kingdom work­ ingmen began to organize on a scale previously unknown. Sixty-six trades unions were registered in the first year after the Trades Unions act became law. There are now more than two hundred legally registered trades un­ ions in Great Brltian enjoying impor­ tant rights and privileges unde • the law. The number of unregistered and less important unions Is much greater, but many of these are merely small lo­ cal societies. It has been the custom to regard the trades unions as societies of work­ ingmen organized merely for the pur­ pose of encouraging strikes and bring­ ing them to a successful Issue. So far as the great majority of British trades unions Is concerned, this idea is gross­ ly unjust The expenditure of effort and money In the support of strikes is comparatively unimportant in most of these organizations, In comparison with the expenditure for membership benefits. To a large extent these unions set as mutual benefit and In­ surance societies. They support mem­ bers who are thrown out of employ­ ment; they pay stated sums in case of sickness or accident; they have a fund in many Instances for othe support of members who have become too old to labor; they provide orphan funds, “le­ gal defense” funds, emigration funds, funeral funds, funds for the transpor­ tation of members from place to place in search of work. There is hardly an emergency thatcanarise in a working­ man’s life, in which money Is needed, 'that is not provided against in spme of the British trades unions. The amount paid out in support of strikes Is generally one of the smallest items In a trades unions expenditure. Thus the union known as the Opera­ tive Stonemasons’ Society expended In 1888 about 90 cents per member In what is known as the “traveling re­ lief." It expended over 85 per member for sickness and accident benefit; It expended over two dollars per mem­ ber for the support of old and worn out stonemasons belonging to the un­ ion; it expended 81.10 per member in its funeral fund; ancj It expended on­ ly eight cents per member in the sup­ port of strikes. The Amalgamated Society of Carpenters and joiners paid out during the same year, an average per member of 80 for relief for the un­ employed of about 83.60 for the sick and injured, of about 90 cents for the “superannuation fund" and of 63 cents for funerals. Yet Its strike expendi­ ture for tho year only equaled Its ex­ penditure for the one item of superanuation. The whole expenditure for strikes m 1888 of thirty-nine British trades unions, having a membership of over two hundred and seventy thousand, averaged only Wjcents per head. The Brtish trades unions are really gigantic co-operative and Insurance organizations. They exist as a whole, not for the purpose of stimulating and encouraging strikes, but for the purpose of making life moreendurable for the British workman. They have fallen, in some instances, into the power of designing and selfish leaders­ and have then .been perverted into mere striking machines. But as a rule they have been beneficent organi­ zations, and Immeasurable helps to the workmen of Great Britain. a failure, as I will endeavor to •how. About seven o'clock p. m. Fri- 1890, A. D., there could have been ■ecn sitting in a car In the Third avenue elevated train, at City Hall station, a wearing a tired Miw BN look, a high silk IM hat. and also the peculiar name of Jonesan dis. for he still lives, the proprietor of one of the numerous bostelries In tbe vicinity of the Grand Central depot. Although Jones is far from being rich himself, he nevertheless has a great veneration for those who are. In fact, the Jones family had been rich, and he himself was born with a silver spoon in in his mouth; but reverses came, and he went into business in order to find something to eat with the spoon. Jones is an individual pf marked con­ servative tendencies, and he regards what he is pleased to call the "lower classes" as a dangerous element that is liable by strikes arid similar labor demonstrations to knock the keystone out of tho arch upon which rests our en­ tire social fabric. Jones is the friend of capita], which he invariably spells with a largo C. Socially Jones, although not a millionaire, is a capital fellow. Tho tired look on Jouoh' face, and to which I have already alluded, was caused by a note about to fall duo, to meet which he was somewhat unprepared. Tho truth 1b Jones' hotel is not very popular. In the language of a competing landlord, . "as a competent hotel it stands without arrival." While Jones was sitting in tbe car waiting for the train to start another middle-aged gentleman entered. It was Smith, who is moderately prosperous and who lives at Mount Vernon. Smith is, and has been, a strong per­ sonal friend of Jones. There is only one point on which they disagree, and that is in regard to tho relations of cap­ ital and labor. Smith, although no of­ fice-seeker. is the friend of tbe laboring man, or, rather, was, tbe friend of tho laboring men. Why he no longer is tho friend of labor will appear if the reader will make an earnest effort to keep on reading this sketch. On this occasion Smith, tbe chum, so to speak, of horny-fisted toil, was extreme­ ly anxious to reach his home in Mount Vernon, as he bad an appointment that evening with a man appropriately named Wriggles, a real estate agent, of whom Smith wanted to buy a vacant lot adjoining the Smithsonian mansion. There was another party in Mount Ver­ non who was- after that lot, hence for Smith • the delay of the train was almost sure to result in the defeat of his most cherished scheme. Smith, the radical friend of toil, took the vacant seat by the side of conserva­ tive Jones, and they conversed pleasant­ ly about the leading topics of the day until they reached that of the cloak­ makers' strike. Smith said that tbe ■triking cloakmakers were fully justified in resisting their employers, while Jones maintained that no matter what conces­ sions were made to them they would still aak for more, and in an abrupt and Inso­ lent manner. “Owing to tbelr tendency to gush and spout and create a bad odor, flare up and go off .when they ain’t load­ ed, these strikes remind me very much of a gas well,” remarked Jones. “When It comes to strikes," said Smith, impressively, “you will almost always find that the strikers have real grievances that fully justify them in quitting work.” “In my opinion.” retorted Jones, the advocate of capital, “more trouble la caused by men who can get work, but re­ fuse to work, than by those who want work, but can not get It.” "My sympathies,” replied Smith, “are Invariably with the strikers, and I am not only willing, but anxious, to assist them against tbe grinding monopolies and bloated bondholders.” “Grinding monoplieaf sneered Jones; “the only grinding monopoly I ever knew was when the Italian organ grinders In New York got up a 'com­ bine.' And as for bloated bondholders, I*ve seen lots of bondholders who held plenty of stock and were not bloated at all, while it has been my misfortune to have known men who never held any thing except whisky, and who were really bloated. Smith, do you know that at times I think you are a little BK BEFORE AND AFTER USING. At one time I had awful sores and filmples on my face, and after using wo bottles of S. S. S.

My plan would be to treat tbe strikers with kind­ ness," said Smith. By this time the train had reached the Forty-second street station, and Smith and Jones hurried into the cross­ car, the former remarking that ho would not miss the 7:80 train for Mount Vernon for five hundred dol­ lars in gold.- As the cross-car ap­ proached the Grand Central depot, Jones, who was looking into the street, said with *a puzzled expression on his Alkx E. Swxxr. FORTUNE'S FAVORITES. “I wonder what's up. It must be a riot. The whole street Is blocked with people running around as if they were Smith and Jones descended as soon as possible into tbe street, which was suffering from a congestion of excited pedestrians, struggling with grip-sacks and suppressed excitement, with occa&ional outbursts of crude profanity. “What's the matter with the mob?" asked Jones of Brown whom th4y met. and with whom both were well aoqualnted. "There are no trains running. The railroad employes have struck," replied Brown. "What!" gaaped Smith, thinking of his appointment at Mount Vernon, and turning as pale as a piece of antique tripe. “There will be no more trains to-night. Tbe railroad employes struck at 7:15." "No train to Mount Vernon?" “.I don't think there will be any trains for two or three days, if the strikers can prevent it." "Oh. the malignant hyenas!" howled Smith, the former friend of the laboring man, “they are toads with devilish arts; they arc a disgrace to the nineteenth century, they are—they are no good! No train for Mount Vernon! I never realized before what a National calamity these strikes are." “When it comes to strikes you will always find that tho strikers have real grievances that justify them in quilting work," calmly replied Jones, quoting tho very words of Smith, the ex-friend of the working-men, and winking at Brown. "What is the name of that whelp of sin, the blatant sneak who ordered this strike?' asked Smith, gritting his teeth. “I’m not sure whether it is Powderly, or a fellow named Holland,’' replied Brown, punching Jones In tho ribs on the sly, for Smith's crankiness on this subject was well known to all his friends. “Whoever he is, he Is a reptile with sneaking ambition. He ought to be lynched. No train for Mount Vernon! This settles the labor question.

I tell you, Smith, beware of those who do not show their love for humanity by their every­ day s acta and utterances. However, hard-hearted as you are, come along with me over to my hotel, and I’ll take care of you for to-night.” When they reached Jones' hotel, the people were seen standing in line as if tickets for a Patti concert were for sale. The number of passengers who had to remain in town in consequence of the strike was so great that Jones' hotel was crowded like a Harlem flat, and be, tak­ ing a loaf from the book of the railroad companies, advanced the local rate for board and lodgings, thereby reaping a rich harvest, which enabled him to meet tho note, causing a permanent, sunny, bright smile to spread out over the Southern frontier of bis face and curl up under his ears.

Anything happened!" . "Why, yes,” said the squire, not sor­ ry for a chance to communicate hi* sorrows to some one else. "Joanna Joyce ia going.” "Going, is she!" said Miriam, sitting down her basket with energy. "Well, I ain’t sorry, dhe’s a- pert, pushing thing, that haa had her own way a good deal too much. Let her go,” "You’re Jokin’, Mirry, ain’t you!" said he. And Miss Miriam remembered that hr>r cue, above all things, was amisVillity, and she gigb-d faiutly. "But what am I going to do!" said the squire, helplessly. "That’s what I want to know.” "Well, do you know, Cornelius, what I think you had better do!” said Mi*a Miriam, archly. "What is it!” "Get married!" And then she shrank back with a spasmodic imitation ot the pretty timidity of 18 springs, “Oh, what have I said!"she exclaimed. "Forget'it, Cornelius, do!" "But I say, though, I ain’t going to forget it!" cried the squire, with a frightened face, "Married! Why, that's the very thing! Why on earth didn’t I think of it before!” "I’m sure I don’t know," said Mirry coqnetisbly. "Men are so stupid.” "And I’m a little stupider than the rest of my kind,” said .Mr. Cornwall, laughing, "But I say, Mirry, you’re not going before we’ve talked it over a bitF "I must," faltered Miriam, hiding her face behind the egg basket. "I do feel so—that is, you musn't think I in­ tended—oh, dear me, what am I say­ ing! If you want to say anything more about it, Cornelius.yon must com* over to our house to-night.” "Yes; but, Mirry"— He was talking-to vacancy. Miriam, egs basket, and all had disappeared. “ Mirrv acts very strange, said the squire "But then she always had an odd streak about her. And it certainly was good advice that she gave me, and I’ll lose no time in acting on it." Miss Miriam went home exultantly. "I think 1 have set the ball rolling now," said she. "He’ll be over here and propose this evening as snre as the world. How his eyes did brighten, to be sure! And to think that tbe idea should never have come into that dear old obtuse head of bis before! I de­ clare, the whole thing happened al­ most as nicely as if it were leap year. I’m preUy sure of being Mrs. Cornwall at last. I wonder what that indolent little minx of a Joanna Joyce will think now." Iu a measure Miss Miriam was right. Squire Cornwall did come lhatevening in his best suit, with a crimson cabbage rose in his buttonbole, and bis honest face beaming with satisfaction. "Miriam," said he scarcely pausing to notice that bis cousin had on a new slate colored sjlk dress with a lace frill starched stiffer than a picket fence, and an extra aljowance of cologue on her pocket hundkeichief, "Is there any­ thing in the gown or iewelery line that you would fancy! I’d like to give yoa some nice present right away.’’ "Mv dear Cornelius!" cried Mis* Miriam, blushing to tbe very tips of her lean cheek bones. "For giving me such excellent ad­ vice, you know,” said the squire. "I’ve taken it." “Ob. Cornelius!” with coy archness. “Well, I have,” declared the squire, “I’ve asked her to marry me. and she says she will." "Asked whoT, cried Mirirm, momen­ tarily forgetful of all her studied co quetriea. "Who. Joanna Jovce, to be sure,*’ said Squire Cornwall. "Whom else should I be talking about! And tbe thing is to come of! in October; and she’s tbe dearest little girl in all tbe world. Upon my word, Miriam, you haven’t the least idea bow grateful I am to you for putting it into my head." Mirian Fry bit her lip. She would Joyfully have boxed her honest cousin’s ears—she would have delighted to call him every appropriate name in the calender, but she was too polite for that She simply turned green and yellow, like an unnpe olive, put a res­ olute force on her tongue, and uttered somewhat automatical!, the words: "I congratulate ynu, Cornelius, I am sure." And Joanna aod her brolber smilidgly agreed that they had altogether misjudged Miriam Fry- While to tbe end of bis days tbe squire firmly be­ lieved that Li* marriage with pretty Joanna Joyce had been Miriam’s fond­ est wish.

Is massed in •hocks, 1« mustered In crib*, is detached tn cargoes and aent forward to the con­ flict. The battle rage* a.* tho nights lengthen. It grows fiert»r as the sun croesee tbe Ifoe and starts north again. The scattering volleys of retreating •quads fall oh the air as winter changes to spring again, and victory crowns the conquering hosts of corn as tiny blades In Judo shoot upward toward the sun. Do you remember corn-planting days? Boys went barefooted then for the first time since that distant summer away be­ yond the winter, which lingered an age. Grass was green in tho fence-rows; wood violets bloomed in the forest; the willow was thronged with foliage, and even tho oak and hard hickory had pushed tender leaves. Just tho size of squirrels' cars, out through tho rough, forbidding bark. Half qyer the field was a stretch of yel­ low sand, whore tho sun beat so fiercely that naked feet were burned. Not a •tump nor a stone in the field; all tho wide strttch from fence to fence one level of mellow earth. An export went ahead with a “marker,”shambling along straight across the field at a target stake, and shifting cogs atid plates of steel have sunk the seed and covered It well with a speed unapproachpblu In a former day. As the slender stalk* ri.se up and ask for help against their ene­ mies. the weeds, prompt allies of famine, tiio same young man. with garment* llttln stained by toil, can ride adown the rows and tend in a day more then a score of men could have served before. But when autumn comes—when frosts h»ve laid a modest dost of gray upon the fields oi green—the giant toil stands well Intrenched. No machine can gather corn. The same -«'.d methods Walter Baleigh saw employed by Indians three hundred years ago are used to-day, and Mem to defy improvemenL Cornstalks will not all attain a uniform height; ears will not stand from the stem at tbe same angle or all put forth from the same side, and be who would gather corn must take his hands and husk it. When the ground Is white with frosts of October mornings, And each.one Jolns'ln tlm march across the yielding ground, dropping three grains in the cross of tho marker. Men camo behind with hoes and rover the corn with mellow, earth, dexterously tucking them Into beds from which they will rise enriched. A burial Is going on In full faith of a resurrection, and with abundant assurance t»f return Increased si thousandfold. Such dinners as they had In corn-planting time! Spring chick­ ens had Just risen to .the dignity of “fries," the garden contributed a vege­ table zest, and oceans of sweet, fresh milk could be had for tho asking. Back to the work In the afternoon when tho glamor had worn off; persiaterft toll till the field was-won, and all hands mkrehed together from the farther corner, where all the scanty seed in the bottom of the basket* went to mako a “king hill” to lead tbe rising grain. * ‘ Warmer suns shon<\ on the little mounds whore tho grains wore hidden: gentle dews and drenching rain.* softened the bony shell which hold the germ, and broad fields spread away with.bright green lines tracing the promise of a bounteous yield. A little later and tho shovel plow, the hoc. and oven tho hand must Idoseq ihn dirt and tiurso the roots — must destroy every life that could drain tho fertility that belonged to corn—and, later still, when summer suns shone hottest, the rank green stalks row? to a man's height, hiding Hie ground and spreading long, broad blade* to gather the good with which the air was charged. Tassels shout from th - venlant • > u. and soft, silky pouches push from the side the crown of King Corn and the scepter of his reign. Improved machinery has Ic.-soncl the labors of the farm life since those curly days. Instead of the basket of seed and tlw single hoc* then fulluwing the marker a tailor-clad young nmn rides with thumb ami fingers. Later still than tho husking peg comes the husking glove. all bristling with stubs of steel and cov­ ering the hand whore^ltack Is rudest The wagon filled, If the field be targe, is driven to the crib for emptying, while another take* Its place, that the work may goon without abating. Along the margins of the many corn fields light pen* of rails arc built, a dozen feet square, often half a dozen adjoining, which serve to house the crop till H is consumed by stock or until a price Is offered that can tempt the (armor. But when that last'wagou-load goes creaking from tho field, forcing a prog­ ress across tho crackling stalks, when tho waiting and tho toil of the year are summed in the words, “The harvest is won,” a consciousness of hard work well done brings somewhat of reward. The ■spirits rise with the end In view. The memories of tho pleasant things enmo back again. The dust, the wounds, the bhMKilng fingers, are forgotten. The girls sit down and pick the Spanish noo­ dles from their skirts, dismiss the har­ vest past-and talk of other harvests of the heart BnL maybe, tho was* was short this year; hay Is scarce and corn- fodder will be in strong demand. If so, the rustic force attacks the withering crop, each man folding a hill in his left arm, while, with his right ho smites the stalks near the roots, severing them at a blow with a steel blade made of a broken scythe or bought at the store in all the glory of rod paint. Ten hills square, or a hun­ dred, are gathered In the shocks, which rest as a base against a centra! four, whose beads are bent and bound together like the ragged tentrpoJes of a wigwam. Later In the season this fodder Is hauled to the barn aud husked, or shocks arc broken open In mild moonlight nights of late (alb and around each heap, ravag­ ing the stalks of their wealth of grain, gather the youth of the neighborhood to (arm life, aud hover# like a dream about th« pens of men who never won a din­ ner gathering corn.

A woman behind an official desk is an awe-inspiring object to the most courageous man in existence; she is her sex plus authority, Charlotte Corday and Minerva combined. Sho is not the more impoaing.by reason of her office, but the office is imixnung because she fills it, because the office is heir­ self. Such a woman may insist eta anything unhindered of man. He is •ven content, at her command, to con­ cede that the earth is flat for the time being. He appears before mi much majesty in a commanding attitude; he waits her pleasure patiently, not dar­ ing to murmur at delay. For these reasons the official woman docs not go out of her way to annoy or to torture man; she accepts him ns a worm, and because be i* weak she refrains from treading on him, and goes no further than to gorgonizc him with her Tennysonian "stony stare." It is for mem­ bers of her own sex that she reserves her more aggressive weapons, man. the worm, observes. and after awhile he retaliates by saying that a woman in qffice cannot escape from herself. She refuses to see, or cannot see, any difference between a free, if tax-paying, public and her own family circle. Sue carrie* her home charac­ teristics into public affairs, regarding men as the possessora of obnoxious latch keys, and women as the victims of them. Her clients are punished for her toothache and responsible for her dyspepsia. That sho is compelled to hold lowly office is the fault of the world, and the world must suffer for it. She knows that she is better than other women, and demonstrates her superiority to anticipate their doubt, or the doubt that she has invented for them. In all probability these faults —light ones, after all, when compared with some of the offenses of the male official—will be remedied.; but until they are, women in office will boa thorn in the flesh of women ont of office. There were four passengers of us who got off at a country junction to wait two hours for the train on tho other line—two men and two women. None of us had ever seen each other before. The station was a little better than a barn, with no bouse nearer than a quarter of a mile. The women gave each other a look and entered the wsiting-.oom, where they sat down as far apart as possible. “Well, old boy," remarked the strange man to me. “Have a smoke?" "You bet." . And in five minutes we were well acquainted, and playing euchre under the shadow of a box-ear. He didn’t take me for a thie* and I never sus­ pected him of murder, and the two hours went By in a burry. Not so in tho depot, however. For the first half hour the two women glared at each other. Neither would speak first. Each was afraid of the other. One looked out into a turnip field, and the other into a swamp. Nou* and then one or the other mustered up courage to approach the door and look out, but always to return to her seat again. Only one had a watch. She consulted it every five minutes, but the other dared not ask her what time it was. As an offset, however, a wood­ en pail, half full of warm water, stood near her. amt though the other lady was dying for a drink she dared not go over to the pail. One had a novel, and the other had a bundle of shells and curiosities, and they could have chatted and ’visited and read and had a good, time. But they dared not. They had not lieen introduced. What an awful thing if they had spoken and acted civilized, and then one had found out that the other was only a hired girl.— New York Sun, Central America is that portion of North America lying between the north boundary of the state of Pana­ ma and the south boundary of 'Mexico, and is about 900 miles long, with greatly varying width.

During their sojourn at the court of Spain. Hon. Thomas W. Palmer and his wife fell in love with a baby Cas­ tilian, the son of a lieutenant in the Spanish navy. They encountered the child and its parents at the seaside city of San Sebastian, where they were summering. An offer was made to adopt the child. At first both mother and father were averse to parting with the little toL Mr. Palmer then pro­ cured the young lieutenant a six weeks’ furlough, and the latter, with his wife and child, went to Madrid and lived at Mr. Palmer’s residence. They became so charmed with their host and hostess that at tbe expiration of the six weeks they gave their consent to tbe adoption of the child. Tta papers were drawn up, in which Mr. and Mrs. Palmer agreed to bring up tho child, educate it, and in case of their death, to restore the child, with an annuity for its support and the completion of its education. They also agreed to have the child instructed in Spanish. It was juat before tho Palmers sailed for America that Higinio Pablacinn y Caqwntero lost his name and his parents. To the minis­ terial residence one day camo Spain's great orator, democrat and poet, Emilio Castelar. Then the little Castilian, who was to become an American, was brought into the great hall, and there, with the blessing of the renowned Spaniard, who laid his hands reverent­ ly upon the child’s golden head, ho wus christened Murillo Castelar Palmar. Then little Murillo sailed away from nis Pyrenees to his new bom? in America, and is Dow in the Palmer home, at Detroit, with a Span­ ish nurse. When one learns that the pay of a lieutenant in the Spanish army is only $30 a month, do wonder is caused at the readiness with which the Spanish parents parted with their pretty child. The future it has before it now has a prettier, brighter, more alluring vista than it tad iu Spain. The little senor has a boon companion and playmate in a pretty little girl, the daughter of a Michigan farmer.

There is not a single street in all the great city of Bangkok leading into the country. No, nor even a trail that an elephant could follow. In the city proper nrc many good streets, however, and of lute years the natives have token to driv­ ing horses'and penie*. and now almost, any afternoon one or more of the nutnrrons princes can be seen driving ntaut the city in stylish turnouts with a half-dressed groom standing up behind. In place of streets the Siamese nave gtcat natural waterways and canals leading to all ixirts of the kingdom. The Menani River, running through the ccntre-of the city, is the great busi­ ness street and thoroughfare. On lx>th sides arc hundreds of "stores and shop* where you can buy everything from a needle to a steamboat. Leading into the country, at right angles from the river, arc the' great canals of Bangkok—some of them being over a hundred mile? in length- They lead everywhere, and ujioff them is brought to market the great rice crop of Siam, a* well as the entire pro­ duct of the land. Some ot these canals are not more than ten feet wide, while every few hunared feet smaller ones lead through the bamboos.and low-growing banana trees to the homes and grounds of the natives. Many of the larger canals, however, arc almost river? in size, and the largest ►team launches tow ns many as a dozen grain taat* fifty and sixty miles inland. Bangkok being so near the sea. tbe tide leaves these canal-boats high aud dry at least once a day; but, strange as it may seem, the tide here has a way of noting not i j a ’.cordnnce with almanac rules and regulations, and sometimes there is no tide nt all at Bangkok for the entire twenty-four hours. The iieople use the canal waters as public bathing places also, but the na­ tive? do not now, as formerly, go into the water naked, a late order of the king com;>clling them to wear at least a small garment. Along them: canals arc located many of the great wats-of tta city.whcrc all day long hundreds of lazy, yellow-. dressed Buddhist priests can lx.- seen l<»nfing about, while near many of these fdaces of worship arc sacred hogs walfowng in mire and filth, says a writer in the Kansas City Times. Wat Chang,-one of the great sights of Bangkok, is located ou the river bank, nearly opposite the king's grounds. It is an immense affair, towering nearly 100 feet into the air, and is surrounded by s(>acious grounds, but all parts of tho main temple os well as the smaller’ ones and the hundred? of stone images of Buddha throughout tta grounds arc fall­ ing to pieces, and in a few years many of the now celebrated wats of Siam will be simply tumbled-down ruins.

This activity is taking on some novel forma. It is stated on good authority, that one of tbe “back numbers" on thia theme, a time-worn biography of Jesus, baa been republished and renamed, and that with new “collars and cuffs,’’ and other attractions fitted to catch tbe un­ wary, the old work is to be launched od the currants of literature as a brand sew craft. Of course a publisher who pretera this method ia at liberty to pur­ sue it; but let an intelligent public be on its guard' against purchasing as new, and up to the times, that which has long figured on the "superannua­ ted” list. In tbe rush of effort to secure a "catchy” book, anthers have been dragged to the front who were never suspected of fitoess for accurate his­ torical and scientific work. Because a man hits hard sensationally, it by no means proves him fit to discuss the his­ torical facta of nineteen centuries ago. Because one is famous in the arena of great social discussions, it by no means demonstrates superiority as an expoun der of tbe ways and work and words of the lowly Nazirene. Grandiloquence is not a valuable qualification in an ex­ positor of truth or any kind and espec­ ially of Christian truth- High-flying fancy has uses doubtless, but pure, practical, womanly, Cbristion sympa­ thy is of inflnateiy more value, and ia immeasurably more-safe in unfolding tbe life and lite-work of Jesus. These reasons warrant us in the prominence we here give to "Pansy’s” new book. For many years this pop­ ular -writer has been instructing and delighting an immense circle of read­ ers. Her books are splended "sellers.” In a library they are always in demand. Everybody who knows them likes them. They abound in all those in­ describable elegancies which flow from tbe pen of a noble, mature, scholarly, Christian woman. All along her liter­ ary career she has been thinking and reading and making notes for a final and crowning honor of her King; and thia Is Hie work of which we speak,— “The Prince of Peace; or. Tbe Beauti­ ful life of Jesus.”As a pure, profitable, wholesome writer. Mrs, Alder fills a place all her own. Her books are like xo other books. She is delightfully imagina­ tive. but never erratic; she is highly entertaining, but never sensational; she is habitually brilliant, but never bombastic; She is always instructive, but never pedantic; she is always true to the record, but never commonplace; she is fearlessly independent, but never heretical; she is gloriously liber­ al. but never skeptical. Parents may freely take this book into their homes, knowing that it is not sensational, but sound in its Christian teachings and safe in Its practical influence. Published by Jones Bros.

For years and years The News has been considered, and We believe justly so, the best local newspaper in Barn* or Eaton counties. For this reason alone it has been able to hold a sub­ scription list of 1,800 at *1.50 per year, when any other paper In the territory in which it circulated could be bought for*! or less. Of course It has seemed toour patrons as though our price was rather high, compared with other papers and many complaints have been made to us, still we did not feel that we could benefit ourselves by cut­ ting down the price. Outside of these two counties the almost universal price of local papers throughout the state is *1.50 per year, and it Is as low as a good paper ought to be made. However, we have come to the con­ clusion that we would finally make the reduction so often asked for, and we now offer you The Nashville News for , But in order to do this and eat three times a day, as we rather like to do, it will be absolutely necessary for us to get the dollar, so that from and after January 1st, next, we will adopt the and will strictly adhere to it. We shall go through our books every month and notify every subscriber thirty days ahead of the time their subscrip­ tion will expire, and promptly '>n the expiration of the time to which the subscription is paid we will discontinue it. We have long tielie veil that this is the onlv correct piatBon which to suc­ cessfully conduct a newspaper, and we have concluded to adopt It. The date printed after your name on the paper shows upon what date your subscription expires, and if you are in arrears you should attend to the mattar immediately. If you will come In and pay what is now due, and give us an extra dollar, your subscrip­ tion will lie credited up to January 1st, 1802, so that you will get the paper for a year and nearly three months for One Dollar. You won’t get such an opportunity again right away. If you are not taking The News come in or send in and pay us One Dollar, and we will send you the paper to January 1st, 1892. You will never get a belter opportunity to subscribe. If vour subscription expires any time between now and January 1st, 1891. send in your dollar and get it ex­ tended to January 1st, 1892. Remember that your paper must l»e paid for in advance by January 1st. next, or upon that date it will stop, sure.

October days call for warm clothing even if the sun’s rays seem hot at time* and the cotton and zephyr fabrics must give way for light woolens. Plain wool­ ens call for a lltllo silk embroidery in a light running pattern, which may be. worked In thosamo or a contrasting tint: • or a plain woolen frock may be set off, as in tbe second Illustration, by cuffs, - collar and belt in some striped material.

The skirt was pleated and the waist was made with a blouse front drdped to the shoulders, opening low over the blouse and falling in a loose bag over the ribbon sash. The blouse was of surah, pleated on one side and plain on the other. The collar was of the pleated surah and so was tho tower part of tho sleeve between the long puff and re­ versed cuffs. All in all, It was a very charming little costume. Another pretty coiltima for a young girl was a chinchilla gray woolen, em­ broidered with a little light embroidery In black slik. marking the deep hem of the skirt, 'rhlch was mounted with gath­ ers at the waist.

There Is nothing in the wording qf the art tm■plylug that Congress assumed such a power or intended to give such effect to this enurtmeut. “At tho time Congress passed the Wil­ son bill it was well known and recog­ nized that the Supreme Court hod de-,• cldod that such a State prohibitory law was void in eo far as the dealer in Im­ ported liquors In the original package wy concerned. In- other words, there was no law and could be no law In exist­ ence making such business a crime. It cannot be assumed that Congress desired to tnt:o.lu*«* into tho pTOSCBt police laws of the State an article or subject hitherto uot tnclud«*d by those laws." Again they hold: “That It must be kept In mind that a legislative act In conflict with the Con­ stitution Is not only Illegal or voidable but it Is absolutely void. It Is as If never enacted, and no subsequent change | ■of the Constitution removing the re­ striction could validate it or breath© Into ILthc breath of life." I The result of the decision will be that |1 the liquor business will be carried on lu Kansas without restriction until the Leg­ islature re-cnac€s the prohibitory law. Tho Republican State Central Commit­ tee has issued an address to the peo­ ple calling upon them to elect only such men as are pledged to the re-enactment of all prohibitory laws now upon the statute books of Kansas. The Prohibitory btntutn JJec L'nconatltuuoiiBl. [Cedar Rapids (Iowa) dl«patch.l Judge John T. Stoneman. of- the Su­ perior Court of tl;ls city, has rendered a decision in three liquor cases brought under the Iowa prohibitory statute. Tho decision afeounts to declaring the Iowa statute unconstitutional and inoperative. During tho month of June, 1890, tbo St. Louis brewing firm of Anheuser, Btiseir & Co. opened an agency In tho town of Marlon, Linn County, and appointod as their agent at that place Jos­ eph Coenen. Quantities of beer were shipped and transported iu quart bottles, securely corked, sealed, and separately labeled, by railroad to plaintiff's general agent, Williams, at Cedar Rapid*, packed In boxes and barrels, which boxes and barrels wcro opened, and a portion of the bottles fur-! warded to Agent Cocncn at Marion in the same condition as when shipped from St. Louis. Corn *n sold tho same without uncorking or unsealing to customers who desired to purchase the same, either by singlaboltles or in other quantities. About this time H. H. Abrams, pastor' qt the Christian Church at Martun. be­ gan proceedings against Cocnan for vio­ lating the prohibitory law. claiming that the opening of the boxes or barrels ait Cedar Rapids, in which tho corked and scaled bottles were shipped, destroyed their character as original packages. Judge Stone man In his opinion de­ clares tho act of Congress knuv.-n as tho WUson bill Is uoi iDtcuded tube retro­ active In its effect and does not rehabili­ tate any statute that had Iteeu previously declared uncunstilutlonal and void by the United States Supreme Court.

United States from dealing with. The supposed authority of Congress in the foregoing legislation is claimed to lx* derived hum this clause of the Constitution of tho United Ltates: “Art. 1, Sec. 8. The Congress slfall have power, »wuirother things, to reg­ ulate commerce with foreign nations, and among the several States and with the Indian tribes." It is suggested that Congress cannot assume any pawer not granted by the Constitution, nor can It abdicate to tho several Slates any power of legislation exclusively lodged in Congress by the Constitution, and it is Insisted that un­ der tho clause of tho Constitution above cited the authority to regulate com­ merce with foreign nations, and among the several Slates and with the In­ dian tribes is exclusively vested in Con­ gress. If Congress has authority to delegate its powers to tLe State, then ft may define the police power of tho State so as to include control over any and all other subjects of fore‘gn or do­ mestic commeree.aud thus enable the sev­ eral States to surround their respective territories with a cordon of lmpas*ablo commercial walls. It was this very evil present under the confederation which was sought to be obviated by the adop­ tion of the Constitution, and the doctrine doqs not seem consonant with reason that Congress now has power by permis­ sive legislation to enable the several States to defeat the very purpose of the Constitution., • He therefore granted a perpetual in­ junction to restrain Abrams from Insti­ tuting - proceedings or interfering with the btislnessuf the plain tiffselling liquors in original packages, The case was sub­ mitted to ’Judge Stunt-man Sept. 29, and has been in consideration sluca that time.

Daniel Webster's Cartlace, Now Nearly One Kun.lrert loir. Did.

This carnage was pur­ chased in London in the year 1803 .by the Hon. Stephen White, of Boston, and used by him for several years, and then passed into the hands of Daniel Webster. It Kubsequently became the property of his son. Fletcher Webster. Later Mr. WiUuCm Vandervort, one of the founders at Tonawanda, N.

Tbe bulidness s^ys that ho saw twenty-five people, low; their lives In attempting to escape, and a guest who narrowly eMiaped death says that fully twice that number have peridied In the burning building. The fire started a few minutes after 1 o’clock this morning, and almost Instantly the large structure was enveloped in flames from cellar .to roof. Every effort wm . made to aromw the sleeping guests, hut tho smoko in the hall* was so dense that It was found Impossible to reach the uptMsr floors, and It Is believed many per­ sons were suffocated and their bodies burned. A number of people jumped from windows and were killed or In­ jured. The fire started In the kitchen near tho elevator, and. shot up tho shaft with al­ most Incredible rapidity to the sixth story and burst through the roof. All the fire engines of the city were quickly . upon the scene, but the fire continued to gain headway, and It soou bt-camo apparent that the building would ba destroyed- The fin-men worked herob ully.to save 4hc Inmates of the hotel, and a number were dragged uncon-' * sclous from the first, second, and third' stories, above which the rescuer* could not ascend on account of the dense smoke which filled tho upper sto­ ries. The scene was one of the wildest con­ fusion. People were reerriat the. windows on every floor, shrieking frantically for help, which could not bo given them. Many fell back into the flames, fainting and exhausted, while others hurled them­ selves from tho windows, meeting Instant death on the pavement. Many who es­ caped from tho lower stories will dlo from the effects of their Injuries, occa­ sioned by tfib flames aud portions of the falling walls. How many victims perished will not lx, known until the fire has spent its force and the debris lias been cleared away. Indications, however, are that at least fifty persons have lost their lives, and probably a much larger num­ ber. Tho hotel was well filled with guests, and thougii many escaped. It seems almost certain that the low of life has been very large. Five bodies partially hidden by bricks ore lying In the alloy, .but cannot bo reached, owing to the intense heat. Two of tbo victims were women, and are sup­ posed from the location oi tho bodies to have been domestics who jumped from their dormitory on the jflxth floor. One woman was being lowered from a window by the aid of a rope and had reached a point opposite the third story when the rope became Ignited from aburning sill. The rope parted and tho woman fell to tbo pavpmenL Her brains' were dashed out and her body flattened1 into a shapeless mass. 4 So great Is the confusion and excite­ ment that the iudeutlty of those killed and injured cannot be ascertained. Un­ dertakers and ambulances are flying Im' all directions, and tbo streets In tbe neighborhood of tho ill-fated hotel are thronged with excited crowds of people. • Every physician In tho city Is on the acene, and the wounded are being cared' for as well as possible. Among those Injured Is Cora Tanner, the actress, who wa< severely burned' about the head and feet. She was play­ ing aq, engagement at tho Grand Opera House and had a room In the hotel. Frank Casey of Glens Fail.®, N. Y.. and Emil Forbes, a prominent brewer of Syrm usc, are among the dead. Many lives were lost by people crazed with fright Jumping from windows. One man says he saw six people juinp from different windows on the Fayettostreet side of the building within a space* of four minutes, and the sight sickened, him with ite horror, and he was compel­ led to leave the spot. The building waa provided with both Iron fire escapes on the outside and ropes on tho Inside, which were tho means of saving many Urea Burnet Forbes, a stock-broker, escaped Into the street almost naked. He was slightly Injured about tho hands. He loses a gold watch valued at 8500 aud all hi» clothing. One woman was found with a nursing bal>c in her arms crouched in a stairway, where she liad been overcome by smoke. She was removed by the firemen, but has not yet regained consciousness, and it is Impossible to say what her name or ex­ perience was. Escape by tho stairways was cut off, and those in the upper stories were com­ pelled to jump. The clerk of the hotel began souudlng In the alarm by tele­ phone, but the flumes spread so rapidly that ho was driven from tho instrument aqd comix-1 led to jump to save his own life. Nothing is h-ft of the building ex­ cept tbe elevator shaft and the chimney. Tho New York Central Depot, which is across the street from the hotel, was In great danger, but was finally saved. The loss will exceed half a million dol­ lars. This covers tho hotel and furni­ ture, the stores on the first floar aud their stocks. The insurance will prob­ ably be about one-half the amount of tho The hotel was one of the finest In Central New York. It stood on one of the most prominent corners of tbe city, and was well known to the traveling public of the United States. There were . 400 rooms in tbe house, and, owing to iu convenient location as- regards the rail­ road depot, it had always been filled with gqj-d's. The New York Central Ball­ road's station adjoined tho hotel. Re­ cently all tbo rooms and parlors of tho house were redecorated and renovated. Elegant furniture was put in, and tbo entire hotel given a practically new ap­ pearance. It was a six-story structure built of stone, brick, and iron. There was an entrance on each corner.

[Chicago dispatch.] jgygHfR Specifications have been prepared for fining and piling the lake front for tho World’s Fair. Tbo exscutiv* commilte© spent two hours dl*cu**lng the detail*-of the work. A number of contractors await­ ed the result of the committee's action, and about a'hundred copies of the speci­ fications were mad© for the bidders. The filling required to be done will bo east of the Illinois CcntnU Railroad, be­ tween the north line of Van Bureu street and the south Uno of Park Row, both lines being extended east for * dis­ tance' of 2,600 feet. A line connecting the outer ends of these projected line* will be the eastern boundary of tho por­ tion to be filled. Th<? area will be about forty-four acres, and will b© inclosed by * revetment or shore protection 4,360 feet in length. The area to be piled is about forty-five acres and Ilea on two sides of the filled territory—north and east—and I* Lshaped tn general outline. Between the center line of Monroe snd-the north Jin© of Van Buren street the piling Is to ex­ tend east from th© Illinois Central right of way 850 feet, and from Van Buren street to Park Row the piling Is to be 250 feet wide. Tbo piled area is to be protected by rows of piles lied together by heavy tlirbors. The contractor for the filling will be required to have the revetment compl «tcd and the whole area stipulated for tilling Bill'd up to a height of six feet above city datum on or before April 15, 1801, and th© whole work of filling on or before July 31, 1801. That part of the piling between Mon­ roe and Van Buren street* is required to be done by April 1, 1891, and tho re­ mainder of the work must be done by July 31. Treasurer Sceberg^r said that since the directory had decided to till and pile tho lake front there had boon a notice­ able increase in the collections, and that a better feeling prevailed among the sub­ scribers. Some of them had been hoi fl­ ing off because tho work w*s not rapid enough. Now they were satisfied aud coming forward with their payments. Tho Treasurer has 8890,000 in bank to the credit of the corporation. “Who shall solicit exhibit*? I* the question that is forcing itself on the attention of all concerned in the luter­ ests of the fair,” said a Commissioner. “While the commission has the power of absolute control of the Exposition, Con­ gress has not provided It with fund* to pay th© necessary expenses. There is a vast difference between tho authority of the commission to act and ft* financial ability to perform, owing to tho meagor sum placed at its disposal by Congress It makes no difference how much ‘au­ thority’ the commission may have, tho moment II cease* to have the necessary funds to pay current expense* that mo­ ment It becomes powerless to ge ahead. This Exposition I* not like a Government contract, which so x»n as the appro­ priation Is expended ran wait until Con­ gress meets again. This work must bo pushed night aud day without any let­ up. “The Chicago Board has undertaken to furnish u site and expend 810,000.000 In buildings and other accommodations. Thus It may be seen both ends of tho ialr have been provided for. Tho Gov­ ernment has furnished the bosses and Chicago tho capital to erect tbo build­ ings, but who is to furnish the exhibits or procure them seems to have been left out of tho calculation. Tho ten or eleven bureaus proposed by Director General Davis to attend to these mat­ ters will cost at least 810,000 c»ch, some of them much more, aud of course it is out of the question to pay this expense from the present Government appropri­ ation. t It'musi be evident that this work, ’ to be done effectively, must bo done through bureaus, as proposed by Mr. Davis, and under his special super­ vision. It looks as if Congress created a great national commission without making provision to enable it to perform the duties required. No doubt this will be remedied when Congress meet* again, but In the meantime ‘who will collect th© exhibit*’ and pay the nccesaary ex­ penses is a question for tho numerous •conference’ committees to solve." Mr. Davis will probably appoint Vico President Bryan Chief of tho Foreign Bureau. The appointment of Mr. Bryan will make him an officer of tho National Commission, which ha* charge of the foreign exhibit*.

The murder­ ers waylaid the old ir>au In hla.barn, cnisbed his skull with a bludgeon, and Wien robbed him.- To get at his money grid valuables they bad to cut his pock­ ets, and when be was found by neigh bors his clothes were cut to shred*. His wife e-timates that the robbers got at. least •1,000 and several thousand doUara" worth of papers, as ho was in the hablL of carrying much money about hl* per­ son. Mr. Brazell went out to milk his cows shortly after supper, and when, he had finished the job he went Into the barn, which la about a block from hls house. He carried a lighted lantern lu *oue hand and a pail of milk in the other. The three robbers wore wait­ ing for him. It Is believed that they attacked him the moment he stepped over tbo threshold, and tried to brain him with a heavy piece of aeantllng which wm subsequently fouud in the barnyard covered with blood. That Brazell made a gallant fight for hls life everything in the barn a* well a* the marks on his body would indicate. A man of powerful physique and fearless, ho fought hls assailant* until, finally overcome, ho sank to nhe floor nearly dead. -Hlsarms wore torn and lacerated, hls hands were covered with blood, hl* face and neck were a mass of cut* and bruises, and reveral of hls ribs were broken. Even the walls of the barn wore bespattered with blood. Tho assault occurred at a time when tho atreeta were nearly deserted, and not until the. murderers had secured their booty and wen? flying for safety did anybody hear the old man’s feeble cries for help. William Haben and hi* wife jessed the barn Just as the murder­ ers vaulted the fence. One of the fel­ low*, who was bareheaded and whoso fa<-e was covered with blood, collided with Mrs. Haben and sent her reeling into the gutter. He ran on without saying a word, leaving Haben to pick hls wife up. The faces and hand* oi the other two men were also ’ bloody. Mr. Haben’* first impulse was to follow them, but bo was arrested by a feebio cry of “murder," which seemed to come from Brazell’s barn. He listened, and again heard the cry more Indistinct than before. Thoroughly frightened and confused lie ran to Wlcke’s saloon, and told Wicko what be had seen and heard. The two men ran back to Hrazell’4 place and entered tho barn. Lying on the floor, hls face covered with blood, which was flowing from a score of wounds, was Brazell. He recognized Haben and Wickes, and in a faint voice exclaimed: • -“1’vo oeen murdered; I’m dying." The two men bent over tho injured man, who mado ono or two vain effort* to talk and then died with his battered bead resting In Haben’* arms. After covering tbo body with some bags Haben and Wicko ran out and gave the alarm to Brazell’s neighbors. In a few min­ utes 'a hundred men armed with shot­ guns and revolvers were scouring the country In search of the murderers. Every nook and glen, every rtrip of woodland.was searched, but tho fellow* had left no trail. Word was sent to the police department In the city for detec­ tives. and half a dozen were dispatched from tho Central Station to help iu the man-hunt, but they arrived at Desplalno* too late to do any good. The only thing the murderers left behind that will serve to identify them was a hat. It was an ordinary Derby hat, in fair condition be­ yond the battering it received from old man Brazell’s blows. When tho men were last seen, about 11 o’clock, near Norwood, on© of them was described as hatloss. Ti>e fact was reported by two farmers who were driv­ ing in from tho city, who said the trio was walking along the road Iq the direc­ tion of the city, and they seemed to be anxious to conceal their Identity. Word was at once sent to tho police station at Jefferson to send out men to meet them if possible. Along the lino of the North­ western at every station between Dcaplaincs and Chicago officers were search­ ing freight cars as fast a* the arrived, and everybody who could not give an ac­ count of himself was promptly taken lu and locked up at Montrose. Four men were taken from ono train that passed through Desplaioes. The men were traveling In pairs, and had between them over Sloth. This, coupled with the fact that they were stealing a ride, gave the officers some hope that they had caught th© right men. Tho throe murderers are known by sight to half a dozen persons in Desplalnea. They •pent Tuesday nigbt In the railroad sta­ tion and yesterday sat In Wlckc's saloon drinking and playing cards. Last even­ ing, Just before 6 o'clock, ono of them entered the saloon with an empty whisky­ bottle and asked Wick© to fill it. The fellow wag apparently under the influ­ ence of liquor and tho saloon-keeper told him he could not hare any more. The same whisky bottle was afterward found in Brazell’s barn near the battered hat. That the trio came to Desplaioes for tho expaeas purpose of robbing old man Brazell Is generally admitted. It ha* been known among Ute man's neighbor* for years that bo was in the habit of car­ rying big sums of monev, and though hr ha* been warned repeatedly against tba habit he persisted In doing so. At time* no was known to have 81,500 in cash in his pocket*. Only a weak ago be cashed a check for a friend, paying him 8400 In gold. He did an exten*ive loan buslnesa with tbo farmers, and always carried frorq ono to twenty note* for sums ranging from 8100 t» 81,000. When he was searched by tho police no trace of a note could be found. Men who knew him well say that the exact amount tbw murderers got will probably never be known.

The baskets were far from beautiful, but posessed an adoriginal attractiveness that pleased thoae who never saw such work. Sweet grass had a great rat. ns a material for baskets and boxes, the fragrance of the grass remaining for year*. But the rude birch bark boxes and sweet smelling grass baskets have given place to tbe far more attractive black asb work. .. The ash tree, after it has been cut, la sawed into pieces- four or five feet long, while still green, and then chopped into bolts three or four inches by an inch thick, the grain running with the narrow edge. The bolt is laid od the top of the stump and vigor ously pounded with a wooden maul in tbe hands of a lusty indtao. The wood under tins process, strips off into shav­ ings the length of the bolt and as thick as the grain, Each year’s growth of the tree represents a shaving and the slower the growth of the tree tbe thin­ ner tbe strip. With a sharp knife tbe Indian imootlis off one side of the strips one soaks them in water until tbev have become pliable. Then they are worn or woven into baskets of every imaginable shape and size, into mam­ moth hampers, little boxes, shopping bags and work-boxes, both useful and ornamental. Tbe squaw* and girls are the cheif workers in this industry, even chopping down the trees and preparing the wood for various manipulations while the braves and bucks sit around looking on. or qiiietlv smoking. . Tbe work is done iargelv during the winter months, ana instead of keeping tbe stuff until the summer season opens* when visitors are numerous and the demand for that kind of work is brisk, the squaws carry the basket to town and dispose of them to tbe best advantage, trading them for groceries, dry goods and other supplies, realizing /ery little from tbe sale compared with »vhat tbe merchant gets (or the goods. The polishing of corals and pebbles ijives employment to a score or more ■ands iu this city, and the volume of ‘msiness transasted aggregates $15,000 nr $90,000. Corals are washed up on the >each of Little Traverse bay by waves ■md picked up by boys sent out for tbe jnrpoae. When polished tbe corals .‘lave a gray black appearance, not very attractive and with no lively colors, ‘>ut odd, aud nice for pins and paper weights. At no other point along tbe 4iores ot tbe lake are tfiev to be found. ;tnd five miles awav on either side tcarcelv a specimen can be secured on the sand. There are only two or three other places in the country where they are found, but in do place are they ao numerous or so large as here. The supply of corals, however, is beginning to run short. A few years ago a t»oy could pick up enough of tbe very choicest corals-in an hour to keep the machinery running for days. Tourists have been so ^nduttrous in picking up and taking home tbe rough stones that now choice specimens are scarce. Tbe fact that the corals would take a fine polish was discovered about three rears ago by John L. Shaw, a wealthy capitalist of Grand Rapids, who was sitting on tbe steps of the only hotel chat existed at that place then. In an idle moment be rubbed one of tbe cor­ als on a piece ot railroad ir n to see what tbe effect would be. The result was most gratifying, and a voung man sitting near bitu appropriated tbe idea 'tnd started a shop for cutting and pol­ ishing tbo stones. There are now four oteces in town polishing the stones, all * uh bv steam and water power and all rotting the year round. Id tbe w(der they prepare for the summer rush.

It would be pleasing to l» able to re- LITTLE CHOW. cord that tne savages were solely re­ sponsible for that blood-curdling trag­ edy. But what use to write, unless to toll the truth? Seldom has the white . man—never, perhaps, except In isolated ' cases—treated the red man In a fair and equitable manner. Minnesota was organised as a territory in IMP, and the emigration rapidly set­ tling upon the eastern side of the Missis­ sippi River began to encroach upon the fertile country opposite. So, In 1851, the Indians were Induced to sign treat­ ies by which they transferred to the United States over 30,000,000 of acres. embracing all their lands In Iowa, Da­ kota and Minnesota, except a tract along tho Upper Minnesota, which they re­ served for their future home. This tract began below Fort Ridgely and extended 150 miles to Lake Traverse, with a width of ten miles on both sides of the river. The treaty contained a provision by which this reservation was also to be coded and the Indians located where the President might appoint. a treaty mode In 1856 they ceded Governmental! that portion north river, retaining tho remainder. It is tho custom of the traders who “>“■ that the Indians will ultimately “<r land*, to give them credit for. , holding a claim against the resent instance, and the w of many false repretho vast wraith the InJ also by refusing m> tlu>, wted to Or Tnx victims or thk slaughter. treaties of 1851 and 1852, $400,000 were paid tho traders on old accounts. Be­ sides, many of* the stipulations as to es­ tablishing schools and furnishing farm­ ing Implements were never carried out. Under tho treaty of 1858 they were to be paid 8106,000, but of this amount they coolie. never received a penny until four years afterward, when 815,000 worth of goods were sent the Sioux, ami tlr-so were de­ ducted out of money due them under former treaties. Thus a long scries of wrongs, coupled with want amounting almost to starva­ tion, had rendered the Indians desper­ ate. and on Sunday, tho 17th of August. l£03, the work of murder began. Four Indians killed as many whites, and then made haste to join their band. Little Crow, an influential chief who had been several times In Washington In the in­ terests of tho Sioux, was at once con­ sulted. He know tlio vast strength of tho whites, and would, no doubt, have advised the surrender of the murderers wore It not that he had been accost'd of acting in the interest* of tho whites against his people, and had thereby lost much of hls Influence. He now saw 3 chance to* regain his lost power, ami as. In common with all Indians, he hated tho whites, he advised a general massacre. “Trouble with the whites is Inevitable, sooner or later,” he said. “Il may a* well come now. lam with you. Lotus go to thn agency, kill thif traders, and take their goods." This advice was. at nnce acted upon; spent many year* among tbe Sioux as a trader, sjx'aklng their language and knowing what could bo expected ot thorn. On« week after the first outbreak, Cot Sibley was at St. Peter with 1,400 men. Tills sectned a large force, and would have been so regarded were it not for the uncertainty of the whereabout* of tho red enemy and their-peculiar mode of warfare. On Sunday, tho 31st day of August, Col. Sibley startl'd out from Fort RI dai­ ly a burial and scouthiK party under the command of Major'Joseph R. Brown, whose family had been made captives by thn Indians. The expedition numbered 133 men all told, of whom h ronslderablo number were teamsters, with ninety-six horses, aud a good supply of comp equipage and provisions. The first day about fifty murdered citizen* wore dis­ covered and burled. Early the noxt morning they camo upon tbo lifeless aud scalped bodies of Captain Marsh and about thirty men who had been sent out on a relief expedition a fow days before. ► They seem to have been, surprised and fired upon from all sides: They were buried by their comrades In ono long grave, wbleh was marked by a largo wooden cross. On tho night of tho 1st of Sep­ tember, “Old Joe." as Major Brown was affectionately called, ordered his command to go Into camp in a gorge near ths now thriving village of Birch Coolie, about sixteen miles from Fort Ridgely. Major Brown, who had great knowledge of tho Indians, believed that all was well, and the men. with the ex­ ception of the guards, went to sloop. Slumber Is heaviest just before day­ break, and It Is then that Indians gen­ erally make an attack. The guard well understood this, and were on the alert. Suddenly, about four o'clock, a watch­ ful sentinel saw and fired upon a moving object. In an Instant tho camp was aroused. All sprung to their feet, and received a deadly cross-fire from not less than 300 rifles, mostly double-barreled, In the hands of their stealthy, fiendish enemies, the Sioux. Soon all who had not been killed or disabled by tho first tire, broke for the wagons, from tho doubtful shelter of which a brisk tiro was re­ turned. Almost Immediately a discovery was made which sent a thrill of dismay through the hearts of the bravest of the “raw recruits." A mistake had been made In the ammunition; the cartridges were all of too large a caliber for the muskets, and not mure than twenty rounds of tho proper size remained for each man. Tbe mon fell to work whittling down the bullets with their knives In tho mean time firing occasionally to keep uj> a show of lighting. Only one shovel ami ono pick, could be found, and these, to­ gether with knives, spoons, ami bayo­ nets. were used to di~ intreiichnicnts. A strong but losing tight was maintained, and by 10 o'clock sixty men ycro killed or wounded, and ninoty-tivo cut of thu ninety-six horses were dead. Tho latter no doubt saved the command from an­ nihilation. since their bodies wero used a* a barricade. For twenty-four hours longer the braves, and an awful slaughter was be­ gun which extended along both sides of the Minnesota River to within six miles of the town of New Ulm. Many were put to death, and that by the most cruel method* that the ingenuity of demons could devise. Children were nailed alive to doors nnd used ns targets at which to throw tomahawks: many were burned alive in houses: while,If possible,sUll more Inhuman and unnatural Primes were per­ bravo men fought on, but with loss loss petrated by these ycritablc fiends. now.

It furnished many in­ without either food or water, and were stances of devotion and endurance. almost exhausted. There were many wonderful escapes from death. A. P. Connolly, Adjutant of tho Sixth Minnesota Infantry, who was prorent, mentions the case of a wom­ an, tho only one of a party who had escaped with her life, though badly wounded with buckshot. Shu had been twelve days without food, other than berries, when shn was found by Maj. Brown's expedition.

During this opera­ tion, which consumed over an hour, sev­ eral exciting death songs were sung. At exactly 10 o’clock the condemned men were formed into a procession and marched Into tho street and directly across from the jail, between files of soldier*, to the long scaffold which had been erected there.

Young Muir was always ambitious to become a sol­ dier. Among his neighbors was General Custer, whose father still resides In Mon­ roe County. Muir was one of the nine who entered a competitive examination in 1830 for appointment to Wert Point, came out with flying colors and by Con­ gressman Edwin Willits was sent to the mi.itary academy in 1881. He g aduated eighth In a class of forty-five lour yeanlater as a second lieutenant, and received hl* commission in the Seventeenth In­ fantry. Lieutenant Muir was first sta­ tioned at Devil’s Lake, N D-, where his talent as a'marksmau first became noted among hls comrades. Two yetn ago he t/se transferred to Fort Totten, N.

About jl :80in the evening, when slKiiit eight miles eastnorthciut from tbe entrance to Sundn Strait, which is marked by Krakatoa, the water suddenly appeared on fire in patches of about two feel •n diameter. These patches were about eight or ten feet a|mrt nnd radi­ ated in long lines from the vessel as far as the eye could see. Thcv ex­ tended iu every direction, the bark htrself being the central point. The Cap­ tain nt first thought tnu show was due to an unusual phosphorescence, the like of which nunc of the hands aboard, sailors though they were, could ever remember having seen before.

When the light would reappear after its mo­ mentary dullness, the water seemed to be literally on fire and the flame ou top moved like the idle fliqiping of the top­ gallant sails.

The surest way to find out the truth about God, is to go to the Bible and find out the truth about yourself.

He is very fond of bathing, and this fondness has not been acquired lately, either, for when Birgalie was a young­ ster—which was bnt one short year ago—he thought nothi>-g greater fun than to hop into a dish of water, and there kick and splash until not onlvhe himself but also everything about liim waa completely drenched.

Alden. “Pan­ sy.” of the world of letters. She has written over sixty book*, which have bad an aggregate sale of over a mil­ lion copies, and her pen has not vet lost it* canning, nor ber work* tlieir popularity. The “Pansy” Magazine under ber skilled editorship holds its Jlace in tbe front rank of publfcations ortho young, though thirteen years of it* life have passed. Mrs. Alden has another element of popularity. She Dot only catches tbe minds and hearts of young, people, and those who work with the young but she ha* been person ally identified with tbe leading movement* in which they are interested. In Sunday schools, Chau­ tauqua Circle* and in Societies of Christian Endeavor, she is a recog­ nized leader, and to her in a great de­ gree has fallen tbe privilege of voicing tbe views and tbe achievements of these popular .lines of activity. In all connected with these noble enterprises Mrs. Alden has a devoted following. And her circle of friends will be ex­ tended greatly by ber last new book, “Tbe Prince of Peace; or, Tbe Beauti­ ful Life of Jesus,’’ published by Jones Bros. Publishing Co., of Cincinnati. It deals with a noble theme, and one familiar and precious to the author. And its pages show that she has ac­ quired fullness of information on ber main thought and its collateral issues. She seems to live in the land tbe age of which she writes. Her vividness of portrayel makes all things real as you read. You are in the throngs which follow the famous Nazarene; you see his works and bear his words. A book iDsuchastyle and on such a theme must live, and its author’s name will be crowned with immortal favor. The publishers have done their work well. TypographicaUy, the book is superb. Its bindings are in perfect tute and in the beet styles of construc­ tion. Its illustrations surpass compe­ tition, there are hundreds of snperb engraving*. Not a second-rate one in the collection. They picture the events of Bible history as the old masters, and modern masters conceive them; while tbe scenery of Palestine is reproduced from photographs and sketches in the highest style ot illustrative art. But tbe crowning adornment of an illustrative sort is found in the Colored Lithographs and Tinted Photogravures with which it abounds. Thev are ex­ quisite pieces of art work- Taken to­ gether, these embellishment* make an Art Album, aud, aside from the text, they are well worth what the book costs. On tbe character of both author and book, we commend it to our read­ ers. , Hibbard's Rheumatic syrup cures rheuma­ tism by purifying the blood and restoring the kidneys and liver to healthy action.

Samuel Fiecman Miller, tbe subject of thia sketch, was tern in Richmond, Ky.. Apiil 5, 1816, and died in the city of Washington, Oct. 13, 1890. His early years were apont upon a farm, but the drudgery of agriculture was a source of discontent to him, and em­ ployment in a drug kfore gave him the opportunity for reading medicine. He graduated in the medical department of Transylvania University when 22 years of age. and entered upon the prac­ tice of medicine in Knox County, Ky. He had been married in the meantime and had beguu the study of law, aud w’as admitted to the bar in 1847. Jus­ tice .Miller was 6 feet tfill, weighed at least 220 pounds, and every molecule of his anatomy was packed with good sense, good nature and judicial ability. He was appointed to the Supreme SOLID VESTIBULE EXP1ESS TRAIBS Bench by President Lincoln in 1862, and when Salmon I’. Chase died it was thought he would be made Chief Justice. President Grant, however, appointed Waite, and Justice Miller outlived him and saw a new man take his place upon tho bench. It is not unusual, in those days of fancy stock-breeding, to hear of stable* costing as much to build as ordinary mansion*, but, ns a rule, the formers' cattle are not cared for as they should be. Barns ore not even rain-tight, and in some new sections cattle are forced to live as best they enu through a long winter with no bettor protection against cold and stormy weather than a “lean-to."

Panging down this long room is a row of cow stalls on an elevated brick paved platform, with a trench back ot the stalls about two feet wide and two feet deep. This room accommodates from twenty to fifty cows on a well-todo farmer’s place. In the spring, when the cattle are turned out to grass, the stalls are scrubbed and scoured, the brick pave­ ments painted and the walla and ceil- | ings whitewashed. Lace curtains are arranged st the windows; often flowerSota or little ja:dinieres are kept there aring the summer, and the room smells as sweet and is as clean as the milk-house of the moat fastidious farmer’s wife.

Instead of exas­ perating tho men beyond endurance, let us try and find out what Is the real catfte of their complaint. I wonder why they did not come to me about it.

Go to your comrades and tell them that I am anxious to have a con­ ference with them. I expect they ob­ ject to having to drill. I don't hjamc them, for that's the way I feel about it myself. Bugler (who has returned)—Colonel, tbe men positively refuse to come; but they say,that if you hove any proposi­ tion to make to them, and will come to their mess-room, they will listen to you. The elder sister of Totn Jones, a stu­ dent, calls at his room, and being near­ sighted. mistakes bis Indian clubs for bottles. She exclaims: "Dear me, I hope those bottle* do not contain whis­ ky.

This shows a widespread interest in tbe theme, which is not surprising. And even now new works upon this topic are appearing. Rumor speaks of sev­ eral. Of one we know, nnd of that we can speak iu commendation and with­ out qualification. It is Mrs. Alden's new book of which we speak; published by Jones Bros. Publishing Co., of1*J. Cincinnati, * ** ** M. E. * * H.O.; and entitied.’*Tlie Prince of Peace; or. The Beautiful Life of Jesus.” It is a fine Suarto volume of over 500 pages. It cetches the narrative of JesusHife in tho peculiarly transparent and attract­ ive style which has made Mrs. Alden (“Pansy” of tbe literary world) undoundedly popular with both young and old. In addition to the author's rich pen pictures of tbQ scenes of Jesus ’ earthly corver, there is a splendid fullness of colored lithographs, tinted photogra­ vure*, and fine engravings, which of themselves form a superb picture gal­ lery of the Lord’s lite in the Holy Land. The book gives evidence that neither author nor publisher has stint­ ed the work.* It is luxuriant in riche* of thought, feeling, direction aud adornment. This Life of Christ is wor­ thy of attention, and they who par­ chase it may rest assured of securing a good book. And this book is one which can l>e trusted as entirely safe iu its teach­ ings. Tbe author is possessed of a charming plav of fancy, but she never runs into the untrustworthy; her rhet­ oric is glowing and brilliant at times, but it never topples over into the bom­ bastic or the verbose. Historically, doctrinally and practically, Mrs. Alden can be confided in as a competent teacher and safe leader, and in these times of prevelent bereav nnd error this is no small consideration in a l ife of Christ. Mrs. Alden has won her way to many heart* also, by her active and intelli­ gent womanly sympaibv with these mental and religious movements which most engage tbe young people of our 'and. She is a recognized leader aud mouth piece in such grand organiza­ tions as the Sabbath School, the Chau­ tauqua Circles, and tbe Societies of Christain Endeavor. Among the ad­ herents of these like institutions she has myriads of followers, by whom her books are ardently welcomed, and eagerly read. Had all those been in­ terrogated aa to whom they desired to prepare for them the life of Christ, their all but unamimous vote would have been for Mrs. Alden. Somewhat Different.

He called her before the board and they annulled her certificate. But there arc a few in the district that arc always bound to have their own way, and they induced Miss Effie to finish her term, which she did for nothing. The majority of the district bud signed a petition to have her certificate annulled, but knowing that she could not draw any more of the dis­ trict money did not say anything but let her kept their children from school.

Light Is an incident of fire, and from the most remote ages the two have been principal among the con­ cents of mankind.

The history of artificial Illumination is, in a certain scuse, the history of tho world's progress. In the rudest limes light was obtained by burning’ wood or 'other vegetable substances. After a lime these gave place to oils, animal and vegetable.

As a mat­ ter of fact candles are a comparatively modern invention, having bom first In­ troduced in the latter part of tho thir­ teenth century- Originally they were made by tho process of “dipping," with which most middle-aged country readers are familiar. Later they were ca-t In molds. Candles were early made of wax, and latterly of siMirm oil and tho products of petroleum.

As they melt away the Ulstanco between them increases, nnd a point is reached at which tho electro-motive force of the battery is no longer sufficient to main­ tain a current across the Intervening spaco. . As the heat thus generated Is sufficient to fuse and even vaporize all known metals, tho problem of rendering tho electric light permanent and profitable became a most difficult one. Its solution was found In using points of carbon, which no heat can fuse but which can be vaporised.

It I* to revolve this armature nt a high rate of speed that the power for running the generator fs required. Tho attract­ ive power of tho magnet tends to hold the armature iu one position, and great force Is necessary to revolve it As It turns, the current is-momentarily made and broken, and the electricity so gener­ ated carried off .by moans of brushes which rub against tho armature, thus supplying the current to maintain the lights In tho circuit. The current which renders tho masses of soft Iron magnets Is supplied from tho revolving armature, and is In turn drawn from them, together with all that Is used to maintain tho lamps In tho circuit Whence this electricity comes no one can say, but that it can be so generated wlth- set out to take Vienna take Vienna? ommeud voting men to write for the । press early in life, being well aware that the habit of doing this has been' Tobacco, Cigars of use to me. - oration.

Blatchford Kavanagh, tho 'phenome­ nal boy vocalist, who has in tbe last two years made such a wonderful stir with his divine voice, has sung his last solo as a boy singer.

During that time his songs have been transposed to meet the progress of the Bishop Wigger, of Newark, has been designated as the successor of Arch­ bishop Heiss, of Milwaukee.

Whether there will be a third astonished person iu the mon who was responsible for the surprise of these two is one of those things which remain to be proved. It came about in this fashion. Mr. A. is a wealthy gentleman be­ longing to a leading club in New Yor^v Mr. B. is his intimate friend. One evening B. came uj>oij A. when tho lat­ ter was signing a lot of wine cords in the library. “What are you going to do with those?" B. asked. “Oh, I hate tho bother of signing a card every time I order anything." A. replied, “and I always sign a lot of cards and give them to the steward to fill out when I have things. It saves a lot of bother and* they know that whatever they put on one of my cards I will par." B. mode some remark about the care­ lessness of this wav of doing business and, as ho talked, he fingered tho signed carlls, managing to abstract one of them. This ho filled in with a prom­ ise' to pay $100 and ou tho following Sunday he dropped it in tbe plate at the fashionable church which both he and Mr. A. attended.

Almost a century has been employed In develop­ ing this system. which Is still far from perfect In 1810 Sir Humphrey Davy, tho inventor of tho safety lamp, ex­ hibited in Paris an elaborate light pro­ duce! by two pelccs of carbon and a powerful galvanic battery. The system described is called the arc system; strips of metal arc used in place of carbon, and are kept from melting or burning by Inclosing them in glass globes from which tho air has been removed, producing a vaccuum. Tills system Is used principally lu public and private oesidenees. but is not well adapted for nitdoor lighting. The city of Chicago is engaged in con­ structing a gigantic system for lighting Its streets by means of electricity. The work has been three years in progress, nnd the results so far accomplished are of tho most gratifying nature. Three power houses arc jffready in operation, and others aro fast nearing completion. About ?3CO.doo a tear is being ex|H.-nded, and before the beginning of the Columl bus Fair the thickly populated portions, of tile city, embracing about fifty square mllot, will have been reclaimed from the domain of the “gas syndicate” and brliiiautly illuminated by means •f the subtle and mysterious electric current. The comparison between the two may well be likened to the light of the stars and that supplied by the moon when at the full, on a clear night. Not only Is Chicago the first large city in America to build an electric plant for Itself, bub It has solved the problem of placing co■ ducting wires under ground, thus avoiding all the tinmnrous accidents and great loss of life which have rendered electric lighting a nuisance in New York. The wires which arc of copper, arc covered with paraffine, then with rubber, and. lastly, encased in lead pipits.

In Ohio ft has fallen from 30 to 15 percent.; la Indiana, from 18 to 11; in Iowa, from 36 to 17; In Missouri, from 20 to 23 par cent,. In spite of tbe rapid growth of St. Liuls and Kansas City; and In inirxdg, dropping Chicago from consideration, from 14.9 to 5.6 j>er cent In these States the agricultural In­ dustry, which is still the prominent one, has begun to decline, owing to the sharp competition of Western farms. The farm­ ing population baa migrated westward, ajid the growth of manufactures is not yet sufficiently rapid to repair these losses. Tbe southern portions of Michi­ gan. Wisconsin, and Minnesota are under similar conditions, but the northern part* of these-States. lying upon the frontier of settlement, have filled up with suf­ ficient rapidity to repair either wholly or in part the losses of lhe southern parte. Michigan increased at the rate of 38 per cent, between 1870 and 1880, while be­ tween 1880 and 1890 the rate was but 2« per cent. Thu Increase between 1880 and 1890 was cut Into unequal parts by the Htate census taken in 1884. In the first four years of the decode, the increase was 13.2 per cent, while in the last six It was 12.7 f>er cent. In Wisconsin the teat-decade shows an increase of 28 per cent, in the decade between 1879 and 1880.

The State census, taken In been considerable emigration from the Stgtes east of the Mlstiroippi River to the westward and but little Immigration. Taken together, however, these two causes by no means account for the reduction tn the rate of increase in the^e States. Tiie real cause la to be found, it is riated. In the Imperfections of tho census of 1870. These imperfcctioRSi resulted In giving a cumparalivdy low rate of in­ crease between 1860 aud >870 and an exaggurated increaw beteroen 1870 and 1880. Arkansas has Continued to grow at a rapid rate, having Increased 40 per cent, in the last ten year*. Texas aho has increased with great rapidity, the numerical increase of its population be­ ing 640,471, or over 40 per cent. in the far Western section the condi­ tions ot growth hive been.varied. In the earlier years of the decade the dis­ covery, of vulniblc -silver and copper 'mines In the mountains of Montana in the nelghborirood of Hnttc drew to that State a large Immigration, which Is en­ gaged not only In mining but In devel­ oping the rich agricultural resources. Wyoming has continued to grow with accelerated rapidity. The census of Colorado in 1880 was taken on the lop wave of a mining ex­ citement. which had filled its mountains with miners, prospector.-*, and specu­ lator v increasing Its jx»pulation enor­ mously. especially in the mountainous country.

TERRIBLE CRASH AT SEA. An unknown schooner, apparently bound cast, with a load of coal, ran down the Spanish steamship Vizcaya, outward bound from New York, and cut it half in two am l<is hi rm. Withia ten minutes both vessels had sunk In twelve fathoms of water, their masts showing above it Of tho ninety-seven persons oa boon! the steamer .neatly all went down with the bull. Some thirty clung to the ratling, and a few of the schooner's crew, with throe of the crew of tho steamer, found clinging apace in the upper ringing vf the latter. As the night advanci d, the cold and con­ sequent axhaustion claimed the weaker ones, and they dropp'd Into the wateeone by one. and were drowned. Only twelve—four-officers aud eight seamen— were still In the rigging at daylight when the tramp steamer Huabolt re cued the survivors by means of Its boat. This terrible disaster occurred with!: eight mile* of tho New Jersey coast at Barnegat. Sixteen paxaengere, a steam­ ship crew <tf sixty-five, and a sehooxier crew of probably sixteen, the usual number— ninety-seven In all—certainly perished.

After due correspondence with the SVorld’i Dispensary Medical Association, tbe proprietors of the In­ valids’Hotel, he was induced to visit said institution. On arriving tbereand after being fully acquainted with the abundant means they posseA’, he lost no time in making tbe necessary ar­ rangements tor the required treatment. After remaining for nearly four weeks a. the Invalids’ Hotel, where you may receive the kindest and beet treat­ ment. and where patients are loth to leave, after recovery, he returned to his family and friends a cured and hap­ py man. In giving this to the public, Mr. Miller wishes to say that he owes the aforesaid Institute nothing but his best wishes. And tbe fact that his own sotcess and great relief is due to simi­ lar testimonials from others who were •ucceaafully treated there for all man­ ner of chronic diseases from every State and Territory of tke Union, Can­ ada, Mexico, and Booth America. It is a marvel of success. He further says, should this fall to the notice of any sufferers, from chronic diseases, eucn as seem to baffle the skill of your own physicians—but first and above all give your own physicians a fair and impartial trial, and all tbe available means offered, as Somerset county may justly feel proud of her medical men, who spare no means nor time in tbe treatment of all cases entrusted to their charge.

As a measure of relief the bankers who resolved upon it are confident that it will at once bo effectual There is almost universal agreement among leading New York bankers that the money-market's recent range and tightness camo through artificial Influ­ ences. Fupds have been locked up, taken out of ordinary business channels, kept out of reach—all In order to carry forward the bear campaign of depres­ sion, apprehension, and quotation smash­ ing. The’ provisions of clearing-house certificates—unlimited, If need be, up to $95,000,000—will, of course, put to rout all these manipulative scheme*. Said a member of the clearing-house committee largely instrumental In bringing about the official action of yesterday: “This ends tho money market trouble. Loan rates will be normal now. The pinch is over." When tho Exchange opened this morn­ ing there was a larger attendance of brokers than had been known for years. Every stock on the list had a crowd uf brokers try ing to trade In it, and’when the market opened the scene was one of confusion aud excitement The cables reporting, an advance of 2 to 3 per cent In Loudon were received before the open­ ing and caused the brokers to take the bull side, aud a disposition to buy was shown all around. Rumors of trouble among banking in­ stitutions were current all day, but nc one paid much heed to them, thinking that they were the usual emanations of bear minds. After the close, however. It was learned that three banks which were members of the New York Clearing House Association had difficulty In set­ tling the claims of the other bank* against them. There was a balance against the Bank of North America of $1,400,000, which it was unable to settle. Tbe other banks were the North River and the Mechanics and Traders’. How the heavy balance was created against the Bank of North America was a puz­ zle. Durlug the day the Mechanics and Traders’ Bank made its settlement with tho clearing house* all . right, and the other two banks received assistance from the other banks In tho association and pulled turough all right. At the Bank of North America II was said that the trouble was directly due to the account of Decker, Howell & Co., and that now that thb account of that firm was closed, the bank was in a stronger position than ever. The most Important factor In the de­ velopments was the scarcity of money. Right ap to the close It was in urgent demand, and X cent and legal in­ terest was charged on loans, equal to 18$ per cent, per annum. This fact and tbe troubles of the banks caused a special meeting of the Clearing House Associ­ ation to be called, and after a long ses­ sion It waAdecldcd to appoint a commit­ tee of Presidents with authority to Issue clearing-house loan certificates in order to enable tanka to settle balances be­ tween themselves. These certificates will be based on bills Tecelvablc, collateral securities, cash assets, and tho united credit of tho banka This action Is Intended to distribute the re­ serve* of the banks more evenly between the Institutions. Where one bank is unable to settle Ito differences In cash ft Xdil deliver securities Mid assets to tho certificate committee, and If the commit­ tee accepts the securities ft will author­ ize the issue of certllcates on them. Tho united action of the banks is expectod to restore complete confidence. It was Just after 2:15 o'clock this after­ noon that the failure of Decker, Howell A Co., of 44 Broadway, wa* announced on the Stock Exchange. They mat'.e an assignment to Wiillam Nelson Cromwell. The firm Is one of tbe largest on tbe Ex­ change and was considered very wealthy., It had been Identified for years with tho movements of the Villard stocks and Its members were generally considered Vil­ lard’s special brokers.

Once a week tho Czar would sit as a judge, without laws or lawyers, and -remedy all cases of In­ justice.'generally by chopping off some­ body's head. .

In February, a portion of his army reached Alaxan Creek, a little west of the city of San Antonio, where Colonel Travis, with 150 effective men, was -stationed! Tim latter retired to' Fort Alamo, on tho east side of the river, and the struggle began that has given to history one of Its bloodiest pages. . Fort Alamo consisted of a cha;>el 75x «2 feet, a convent infix 18 feet, a prison and a plaza, and had a strongly* built stocked.* .and walls of heavy masonry four feet thick. Tho different Inclosures embraced some five acres of ground, with accommodations for 1,080 men. Tho outer walls wore eight feet high, and, though built well to repel Indians, they were not able to resist effective bom­ bardment. The fort had eight heavy guns for Its armament, and ovqr the ehneh floated the flag of tho ProviOonal government ot Texas, .the Mexican tri­ color with the numerals 1824 in place of the eagle In the white stripe. . The siege began Feb. 23. Traris, the officer In charge, had accured eighty bushels of corn and thirty boeves for provisions. At nnon ot that day Santa Anna sent a summons to the Texans to surrender, which was answered by a cannon shot. The next day tbe tort was Mexico secured Indisputable title to Its bombarded without effect, and Travis bread margin.*. Its fertile acres early sent out cmtrlera to Goliad and Washing­ attracted Immigrants, and scores of hardy ton for rc-cuforcements, announcing pioneers penetrated Its borders frpm the United States, bqlng apparently wel­ comed by the Mexican Government Un­ til 1830 affairs proceeded smoothly, but it was then , discovered by the' govern­ ment that the Americans were fast out­ numbering the natives, and, as Stephen F. Austin and other pioneers were devel­ oping an independent spirit, an effort i wws made to hold the reins more tightly. ' Immigration wa* prohibited, Texas wm made tho prison homo of convicts, and although the settlers had been promised that he would never surrender. The third day the Texan batteries killed two Mexicans and burned some wooden build­ ing* outride the fort where their enemies ^had taken refuge. Tbe Mexicans then 'attempted to cutoff tbe garrison from water. Riw>nforcc*enU arrived^ f> the number of thirty-two mnn. the eighth day. A message was rfiapatehedlo the convention with a Jotter from Traris “I am still here <nd well-to-do. iflth 145 men.

After declaring bls drtermluaUon to »«ll hl» life as dearly a* possible, and draw­ ing a Hue wixh hl» sword; Travis exhort ed all who were willing to fight with him to form on the line. With on© exception al! fell into tho ranks, and even Bt.wic. who was dying with consumption, had tils cot carried to the line. The man wlio declined to enter the ranks that night madc'hls escapt*. The Mexicans continued to bombard the fort. The Texans, being short of ammunition, seldom fired. In the even­ ing Santa Anna called a council of offi­ cers, and, In spite of tho r»!monstrance of some of. his generals, resolved to storm the fortress. His orders were prepared very carefully, and given whh great minuteness. There were to be fonr columns of attack, led. by his. most ex­ perienced generals. Each column was supplied with axes, crowbars and seal­ lug ladders, His entire cavalry force was paraded In the rear, to prevent the desertion of his own troops, aud to Inter­ cept any Texans wbo-mtght attempt to escape. Sunday, March fl, was the fata! day. Shortly after midnight the Mexican army began its march to asslsned positions. At 4 o’clock the bugle-call sounded, and Santa Anna beaded an advance. Grape, musket and rifle balls met them, and twice they were repelled. They com­ bined. forming a denre j»»m, and at last, reaching tbe tops of some houses form­ ing the wall of the fort, effected an en­ trance to the Inclosed yard. About tho same time they forced a breach in tlie wall and captured uno of the Texan guns. This was at once turned upon tbe convent, to which the Americans had retreated- The cannonade of the be­ sieged still did fearful execution, but tbe feeble garrison could not resist over­ whelming numbers. Travlt fell early In the action with a rifle ball in the head, but be had strength enough to kill a Mexican who attempted to spear him. The bodies of most ot the Texans were found In a building whan! a hand tt>-ban<l fight took place. Davy Crockett was killed In the yard, but a number of the Mexlttuts lay ulwnif him. Bowfe Wat slain in his bed, but he killed two or three ot his foes with hl* pistols before they reached him. The residue of the garrison had fled to the church. It hsd Im-vu agreed that when further resistance seemed useless, the surviving Texans should blow up the magazine.

The mas­ sacre wa- complete- Every soldier had fallen In defense of the fort. Three non-combatants were spared, a servant and two ladles. Lieutenant Dirkhison, with a child on bls back, leaped from an upper window to escape, and their bodies were riddled with bul­ lets. The bodies of 1H<> Texans were collected together in a pile and partially hurried bv their inhuman foes. The Mexicans lost nearly twice that number, in 1837 Um bones of the heroes wore gathered and decently buried. A neat monument, commemorative of their heroic deeds,-has b»-en erected at the entrance to tho State House In Aus­ tin. tho capital efty of Texas. Upon'tho four squares of this shaft are written tho names of Travis, Bowie, Crockett and Bonham. Each ot tho four rides bears ajso an appropriate Inscription, that on tho cast front reading: a"Th**rmopyla: had her messenger of defeat, but the Alamo had nunc " » The noble defenders of the Alamo did noi die <iin In m vain, vim, however. nowrvvr.

With the fierce battle cry of “Kcniember the Alamo!" the State forces pressed forward Iu other sections to victory. At Goliad, shortly after­ ward. 385 prisoners, while ringing “Homo. Swwt Home." received an order of execution, and nearly every pne of them was shot to death. This coldUuodcd. deliberate murder stamped Its perpetrators with eternal Infamy, but awakened the Texans to pursue them to the last extremity. The Mexicans were b**aten back, and in less than a year the independence' of Texas was an established fact. Gen.

An exchaage says: “There are some splendid claims on Deadwood creek not yet taken as good as any on tne coast. The citizens want men with families to settle on them. “Three of the*e claims were taken by bachelors last fall. The ladies of Deadwood passed a resolution placing a three-yeara’ limit on esiibacy in that district,* aud providing all bachelors not married at the end of that time be run out of the settlement or hung.” That fixed things.

Dot made a hit; it was her first real success. She was liked so much that Mr. Hoyt engaged her for the road for last season for a salary of $50 a week.

It may be stated without fear of dis­ pute that Miss Ida Ewing of Freniouni, Clark County, Mo., is tiro poasesaorof bigger feet than any other woman in the country. The young lady, who is now but 18 rears of age, recently ordered a pair of *hoes.

A. W. Foote, who made the last, states that within the period of his eighteen years’ experience in the shoe bmineea he has never seen anything to quite equal Miss Ewing's foot. It took him a day and a half to look up the timber, and when he finally secured a large enough maple block »o‘ hew the lastfiom.he was obliged to fill out the instep with leather. Miss Ewing, the young lady who will wear the shoes a hen they are en­ tirely constructed, is the daughter of a farmer at Fairmount, and it is under­ stood spent Hie early part of her life in the woods in the vicinity of Chicago. Her height is 7 feet 10 inches, and her weight 2'25 pounds. She ia, therefore, rather slender for her height. The voung lady has been in the habit of having her shoes made by a cobbler in the country place near where she lives, and the latter evidently has not been fitting her as well as he should. One of her old shoes, which was sent here with the order for tho new jiair, is a rather crude conception of w hat a shoe ought to be, aud the way it baa been worn would indicate that the lady has corns.

Tho statistics are not available yet but some points of Interest may be given. Su­ perintendent Porter says’. -The worst real­ estate records are in the Soil th. where it Is generally the custom of public officers (o record conveyances tn manuscript without any headings to indicate their character. In New England and the -Middle States the I record baa been kept somewhat better than I in the South, but the large number of in­ cumbrances to bo abstracted has called for a correspondingly large expenditure of money. In the West the records have been well kept, but throughout that region a difficulty of great proportions was encountered. It is there the custom, upon the borrowing of money, to giro a second mortgage to secure a portion of Ute interest. Thp most difficult fact of all to ascertain has been the rate of interest, and In many Blates it has been impossible' to obtain this infbrmatlon from the rec«>rdB. To evade usury laws, perhaps to conceal the true rate from the borrower, and to give the loaning agent a commission out of the rate of Interest, contracts are so worded and contrived that they do not reveal the true rate; Indeed, hi many counties in the South mortgages state that the loans that they secure bear no in­ terest at all. although us a matter of fact U>e rate of Interest that is actually paid Is from 10 to 25 per cent.” What R.

When the berry reaches tbe market It is generally red, but when it is picked It is nearly white, with a faint rosy'tint just beginning'to show. • As each picker bands over his box of berries he receives a ticket which he can “cash In" for tho current price, usually from 5 to G shillings.

It Is over twenty-five years since the golden discovery was made that there Is money to bo made In cranberries. During these years fortunes have been made and other fortunes expended to place what appeared worthless marsh in a condition to bear fralt. The little city *of Berlin, Green Lake County. Wis., writes a cor­ respondent of the Chicago TYUiunc, Is the center of a cranberry-producing area that pirns out thousands of barrels of fruit annually, which fact has given the place the name of “Cranberry City," a name which it proudly wears in contra­ distinction to Its sister city, Ripon, whose prosaic pursuit of late yearrha, been the growth of cucumbers, aud Is therefore dubbed “PlcklevUle." At first the men who made money out of cranberry culture were those ,^who had great holdings of wild marsh, sur­ rounded with tamaracks and garnished with a wilderness of sago brush and huckleberry bushes. The crop blossomed* tn wild neglect and the fortunate vos•essors of inese tracts found themselves taking off from 820,000 to 850,000 In clear profits annually without spending a dol­ lar except to the pickers. Then the hunt began for marsh land that would grow cranberries. Many were succesful tn finding from three to ten and fifteen acres tracts, and iu numerous instances pools were formed so that larger areas might be purchased and parceled out. The small growers went to work plant­ ing vines, and have now the satisfac­ tion of reaping ample returns. Fortune bas been more fickle with tirn big growers. The science of the culturo wo» pushed too far, perhaps. The groat canals that were dug for flooding purposes and the exPisteo pumping machinery that was put have not had the effect of producing a corresponding increase In the crop. Cran­ t berries are like Indians, they are pot benefited t>y too much civilizing. The same marah cannot be relied upon to yield every year. Aside from tho “natoral intention-" of the berry it is ; ink ' rhe; ate , It bhMoonm : Is not likaty : . However, i there Is a . more of this! But hold. This is Thanksgiving Day! N 1 ■ .<-?=>==-M 1 ML J ■ wJy I 35 winds, and tread them Into the soft marsh, and they will return good for evil by spring up and bearing fruit, in tbe spring these broad acre* of swamp land are a literal matting of cranberry vegetation, covered with a 'tiny white blossom. If one out of ten of these blossoms, or even one jn a hundred, runs the gauulet, a good crop is assured. Tho harvest begins the first week In Sep­ tember and generally lasts from ton days to two weeks. At the appointed time a motley tide ot humanity sets In toward the cranberry marshes. They are drawn by teams hitched to lumber wagon.s, and generally carry baggage and provisions enough to last them through. On the high land bordering the marshes are erected rows of one and two story shanties, and Into these the pickers are stowed. Some­ times tents arc necessary to shelter this overflow. In a few days everybody knows his neighbor, and a labor com­ mune is established. Fun and hard work are equally mixed. It is a welcome change to these people who, for a few days, get out of the bumdrum rut of their existence, see new faces, crack jokes, dance and sing, and add a small sum of money to thetr scanty savings for the winter. It Is an Interesting sight to see the pickers go to work In tho morning. Everybody Is d/essed for tho job. Ou tho beads of tho women are broad­ brimmed straw bats tied down over the ears, suubonnets, shakers, or the clean white linen clothes, after the style of tbe German market women. An old'jacket, a callco'skirt, and a heavy pair of shoes and stockings complete the costume. The men wear anything that “won’t hurt," but all, by previous experience, know enough to keep dry wraps in camp tn case of a wet sinking marsh or a sudden shower. Every, one carries a Urge shallow milk pan, and each picker" Is provided with a slatted rectangular box bolding exactly a bushel Arriving at __ ___________ tho_ground to be,______ picked____ the___________ hands are ranged in a row. under the dirocUou of a boss to every forty pickers. The boxes are thrown on the ground, tbe pickers get on tlwjir hands and knees and comfill tbe shallop pans. It !» in of exuberant ones, end occasionally the glitter of a pan as it is whirled high In the air after a trip to tho box. But what sets one to thinking most is the bobbing heads with the white linen cov­ erings. These arc the Polish or German women, working hard to pay the debt on tho church, to add a few more acres to the small but wel^eultlvatcd farm, to clothe and educate the children, or to augment tlie “roll" already hid away In an old stocking or trunk. Many of those foreign-born plexors arc woll-to-do, and having no faith in banks, hoard their money In hiding places at their homes. They are a good class of citizens to cul­ tivate tho waste places, and they have taken up a great deal of land In this part of tho State. As tho day draws to a close, tho tired ones drop oat and the older ones prepare to go back to the shanties. The day’s work Is talked over, supper Is eaton, the crowd begins to scatter, and the evening fun begins. Various kinds of hawkers appear. The kodak man sells his views and the •sutler" disposes of his goods Liquors, wheels of fortune, and other harmful attractions arc forbidden, but music fills the vacancy, and at. tho first rasping notes of the violin the boys and girls arc ready for tbe dance. It is a free-for-all, in a rude pavilion, at 5 cents a dance. This dancing will compare .with anything North or South in Its local character. The old folks took on for awhile and then go to bed. while tho youngsters keep the ball rolling until nearly midnight. Such Joking, swing­ ing. flirting, love-making, and merry• maklng were never eaperleneed under tallow and kerosene, unlew at the old quiltings and corn-husking* of early days. A few days later the crowd breaks up, to know each other no more until another harvest As the Thanksgiving diners lift a dainty morsel of jelly that U destined to cehter of gravity of fho entire con­ trivance—iu this case pencil and j>enkuife - crime* underneath tho point of the base, (the linger, edge of table, etc.).

Ix»t nunnery' In a little frame building at the cor­ ner of Delaware avenue and B street northwest, Washington, there is to be seen a model of the equestrian statue that the Society of the Army of the Cumberland intends to erect, probably in Iowa circle, in honor of General John X. Logan. Mrs. Logan has ex­ pressed her satisfaction with the model. General Logan was a friend of the sculptor, Lot Flannery, for many years and sat for him for the bust from which the model is taken. Ever since the war Mr. Flannery has had this work in view, aud has been making a study of the General in all hu moods and ’marking hie charaeterutj*m He vets dumtiiiv's xj-othborib. has studied with an artistXoye, and as a result has produced a statue in join a fragment of turkey, they can every line of which character is think of the cranberry’s marshy birth­ strongly marked.

The habits that mark tbe true gen­ tleman are not so difficult to acquire as to account for the comparatively small number who own them. Their neglect arises usually from careless­ ness or from a sefishoess which places • ease ahead of comfort or gratification others. For unselfishness lies at the root of the best breeding. Selfishness It Is which hinders a man s uking the trouble to remember to stand aside and let a lady precede him in enter­ ing or leaving a room, which keeps him in hia seat while she is standing, whether in a public conveyance or in a private parlor. He does not recog­ nize the spring of hts actions by this name. His excuse Is always ready: “I never thought of it.” “Why should she not stand aa well as I?’’ or, perhaps, hardest Ui deal with, “What is the' use of bothering about such things?” To begin with, let ft be roundly stated that no pari,of the toilet should ever be be performed in public. Ail such operations as cleaning ar cutting the naite, picking the teeth, removing shreds of dried skin from the faw or haudn, pulling out stray ; I | ) | own apartment, not on the street, In the car or boat, or in the drawlngroom. Bome men consider that they are quite justified In scraping and paring their nails In the presence of their faniill<a$ assembled at the break­ fast table if they preface the action with a perfunctory, “Excuse me,” or, “By your leave.” Others do not take the trouble to apologize even thus slightly. And without pessimism it may be affirmed that only exception­ ally does one And a man who will not pick his teeth after a meal, if not be­ fore guests or in a public restaurant, at least ip the presence of his family. 'There are still households in which it is considered quite a touch of elegance to pass a glass of tooth picks as tbe final course of a meal. Abstinence from the above-mention­ ed “small vices,” and from others of the same school, may be termed tbe first steps in good-breeding. Such' avoidance is among the things a man ought to know and to-practice. But there are other observances needed to give grace and finish to a man’s demeanor. One of them is the prompt touching of the hat, not only when meeting an acquaintance on tbe strpet or or. entering the house, but at other times—in a horse-car, when tendering a seat to a lady, and whem she ac­ knowledges the kindness by bow or word, in an elevator or a hotel corridor when a woman is present, and when kissing- a woman, lie she only one’s wife, sister, or daughter. Do all these Items seem such trifles as to be unworthy of notice? Yet they are powerful agencies In forward­ ing or destroying the happiness of a man’s home, of the women therein, and of every one else with whom he is thrown into contact. Even if the “big brother, Man,” does not clearly see thp necessity, for his own sake, of yielding courtesy, may he not, as a concession to feminine weakness, make a slight sacrifice of bls personal Incllnations?—Harper’s Bazar.

Mr. Clarke b*»lleves It was sand or difit, and before he could recover from hi* surprise tho other had grabbl’d, the sochel with the money and the two disappeared down the alloy. No one happened to be in tho vicinity at the time and Mr. Clarke ran dowu to the depot and gave the alarm to the lone policeman he found there. Tcqro.ther they returned to th® scene of the rob­ bery, but there was no trace of the rob­ bers. They then hurried to the Central Police Station, where Mr. Clark® gave a* good a description of the robbers a* po*rible, but that was very meager.

But all doubt of Mr. Clarke having the money was dispelled late to-night when Mr. Clarke's attorney, a leading lawyer of the city, was seen at his home and admitted having identified Mr. Clark® at tho Secund Ward Hank this afternoon that he might cash toe522.000 check. He had spuken to Mr. . 4,'larke, he said, about taking tho entire amount In cash, but Mr. Clarke said hehad some bills to pay here and also 8­ 517.000 loan to pay at a Sheboygan bank. Mr. Killelea further said ' that-he had. known Mr. Clarke for many years and did not doubt for a moment that he told the truth about the robb?ry.

The lack of costly furniture, handsome carpets, fragile bric-a-brac and expen­ sive hangings did not lessen her care. She was both mistress and servant, matron and nurse, housekeeper and charwoman, dairymaid ana cook. Neatness was not less demanded of her than of the modern hoqsewife, and her split broom and scrub brunh found ample service in keeping floor and fur­ niture clean and white. The labor was preltv well divided between the sexes. “I'he men," tho early writers tell ns, “hunted and brought in the meat; they jdanted. plowed and gath­ ,1 ered the corn, grinding it into meal at a hand-.mill or pounding it into hominy in the mortar, which was occasionally the work of either or the joint labor of both." But with these offices the la­ bor of the women was scarcely begun. Custom and necessity united to lay upon her the care of providing' for every household need that the rudo agriculture of the period did not supply, and in all the inultitariotu du­ ties which engaged her skill .and ener­ gy she lalx>red unaided by Ifibor-saving machinery.

The story is one that will hold the interest of the reader from the very beginning. The plot is well sustained throughout, there are many dramatic incidents, and the story is, in all respects, up to a very high standard of excellence. it is original, is copy­ righted. not published in book form, and hence if you want to read it. and of course you do, you will not look for it elsewhere.

They had the same stove, and the price was not only 'ten per cent off but even lower than that. There wad - no stuff talked about giving anything to the customers, but a fellow could see that the folks were doing a big business on business principles* They could sell cheaper than the non-advertisere, be­ cause they had more trade, and were turning money over fasUy and were dealing with a class of folks that take the best goods and pay their bills. A store that advertlses"llberally invaria­ bly has that class of trade. “At first thought the plea that a business man can give his customers the money that he saves from adver­ tising may seem all right. But it’s not tbe way people do business Id these times. There’s no money saved by not advertising, and so there’s nothing to give. I will concede that if every merchant in in this town would give up advertising, there might be some money saved to gvle to custo­ mers, provided none of the trade came from out of town. The same thing could be done if everybody would move into cheap wooden stores tn the suburbs, and (run with scarcely no exDenseatajl. That isn’t done, because it’s not in accord with the conditions of modern business competition. Some man would have a better location than tbe others and get a better trade than the rest. One man would build a big brick store, with handsome plate­ glass windows, and that would attract enough more customers to more than offset the expense. And so you would have all the merchants, if they had any enterprise or sense at all, crowding toward tbe center of busi­ ness, just as they do in every city, spending every dollar they can on fine stores and other things to bring in customers. “As all of them can’t have the best localionsand th <fl nest windowsand the best interiors in town, they reach out to the people in a different way. They show their goods in the columns of the newspapers. The live man on a side street is able in this way to at­ tract as much attention as his compet­ itor right in the heart of business on O street. He tells about the goods he has to sell, mentions bis specialties, and draws crowdsof folks in to see his novelties. All of this costs money, just as prettytstores cost money, but it makes business and makes it possi­ ble to sell cheaper than the slow-going man who ‘can’t see that it pays to ad­ vertise.’ When a man tells a customer that he saves money by not using printer’s ink you can pnt him down as a failure in the business world wher­ ever there Is any competition. He is Ixiund to sell so few goods that his prices must be high or hecannot afford to stay in business. “One thing that the business men of Lincoln, with a very few exceptions, have not learned to do yet,” was the concluding remark, as the talker but­ toned up his coat and prepared to go home, “and that is to get the best re­ , suits possible out of advertising.

Tho sight of these people gave Anton Infinite relief, and he breathed more easily when ho felt that tho care of his ghastly charge was being shared by others The first of the officers to approach the body was tbe marshal He took a care­ ful survey of the surroundings, but found nothing that aroused bis curiosity in an unusual decree; nothing that would serve as a clew, or indicate that there had been a struggle. Tho doctor, with tbe assistance of the others, ex­ amined the body, and found only the one wound immediately below the left shoulder blade, though that was evident­ ly vary deep. Plainly tho blow had been struck by a strong zrm snd hand, which had not erred in its purpose. It was useless to surmise; there w^s nothing to say in the matter except tbe plain, horrible truth that it was a cold-blouded mur­ der, though whose hand bad dealt tbe blow no person could Imagine.

Owing to his imperfect knowledge of the business he at first lost a great deal of money in tbe venture, and by the time that he had mastered all the nec­ essary points and was turning out sat­ isfactory wines, he found that the poor wines which many of his competitors were patting on the market had caused ths people to speak disparagingly domestic wines, so that tbe trade Ln them was 'considerably fallen off.

Pont, of Nashville, is visiting her In certain parts of Holland, when a young man thinks ho has found bls 1affinity, it is customary for him to ask for a match to light his cigar at the 1door of his beloved one’s house. This little subterfuge is intended to arouse tbe parents of tbe girl to tbe fact that something is in the wind. If a second call with a similar object is made soon after, no doubt is left of the young man’s intentions, and tbe parents proceed to investigate tbe young man’s character and antecedents with a view of ascertaining bis eligi­ bility as a member of the family. When he calle tbe third time, always for a match to light his cigar, they are prepared to give him an answer. If his suit is regarded with favor he is politely requested to step inside for the first time, and is served with a light. If be is Dot accepted he is re­ fused a light, and tbe door is shut in his face without further ceremony. But, having prepared for this contin­ gency, the downcast suitor will in all probability light his weed with a match from bis own box, and walk away mus­ ing on the transitory nature ot earthly things. When the accepted suitor is invited to enter the bouse he, as a mat­ ter of course, informs the parents which of their daughters has captiva­ ted his fanev. When this is settled the young man steps forward and they join bands. While tbe engagement is bv means a settled fact, even at this important stage, vet it is stated as a tiutli that when, on tlje occasion of the young man’s third visit, bis inamorata has of­ fered him a second cigar, which be had smoked in their bouse, tbe engagement has never been canceled.

Then* may be grander scenery along the shores of Lake Champlain than tho steep banks which wall tbe triangular flats at.tiic mouth of the Bouquet River, but there is none more beautiful or* charming. *As the early French voyagers first pushed the prows of their bust* up that stream, and rested their eyes ujkid the loveliness about them—the Math bank a wc.od of gl.irious pines, rising from the flats in three* commanding terraces, and tiu» north bank a solid bed of sweet fern and princess pine, flecked with wild roses, goklon-rod. and honeysuckle. and ►tarred with anemone* and HM-cvorlastIngs—it is small wonder that they named tbe stream Bouquet River. Men of Jess strong imagination would have done the same. Although some of tbe descendants of these Frenchmen still remain along the Bonquct, mint of them have been crowded northward by the sturdy English settlers; and In September, 1814. when our narrative begins, the north bank of the river near the mouth was crowned by the substan­ tial brick farmhouse and fruitful orchards of Janie! Fairchild. Spine three-fourths of a mile further up thu river were the Willsborough fail*.' and just above them a busy Hille town of tin- same name. The principal personage in the village was Mr. Levi Iligby, whose extensive forges were at that lime busy preparing anchors for American war ships, and his distillery wa* doing i’,* utmost to supply grog enough for American soldiers and seamen. It being a time when warm, ardent spirits were In greatest demand. it was the day after the great naval bailie of Plattsburg. at which McDon­ ough lirwl gained his famous victory over the British uuder Capu Dowhle** com­ mand. it will be remembered that part of tho British squadron managed to escape It put acrons the lake to Burlington. In the dusk of evening, as this rem­ nant of a fleet came in sight of old “Rock liundcr," which He* a little U> the south of Burlington, it mistook tho dark out­ line of Ulis granite Island for the con­ tour of an American war ship, dropped anchor, aud sent broadside after broad•ale against its flinty face. Au tbo mists of morning lifted suffi­ ciently to show the astonished seamen what they bad been wasting their pow­ der aud ball on, British naval pride suf­ fered a mortification never before expe­ rienced. Angered and chagrined, the commander determined to find a more sensitive target for hl* cannon, aud pm out again—this time for the mouth of the Bouquet River. When be had sailed his ship* as far into the mouth of tbe river'as they could go. )»e dropped anchor and lowered his galleys. These were manned with as many seamen as they could hold, which made quite a formidable fleet. They moved up the river as quietly and as undisturbed as had the French so many years before: but their bright uni­ form* and glistening guns betrayed their real mission. , Leaving their galleys below the falls, they marched Into the Httle village aud took powteusfon of it before tiie inhabit­ ants were hardly aware that there waa a rrod-coai” on Xcw York soil.

And this not in any spirit of unktndness nor lack of affection for him, but because she believe* that all doc] tors and all medicines are the devil’s emissaries, and nothing has potency to cure disease but faith In God. She spends much time daily in piaylng for the cure of her husband, but it Is noticed that the-cancer keeps right on in Its deadly work. Mr. Payne has begged and Implored her to send for a doctor, but she has refused. The neighbors finally determined that this nonsense had proceeded far enough, and laid the facts in the case before Prosecuting Attorney Smith, who went there with the sheriff Monday. Mre. 'Payne treated them courteously.. but when they began.to talk about a, doc­ tor coming, she declared that she would not permit the devil’s emissary to come to her house, nor would she give his medicines If be did; declared she must serve the Lord, and the Lord willed It, so she believed that Albert must get well through ber faith or not at all. Mr. Payne Indicated a desire to write a few words, and Judge Smith furnished him with a pencH and paper. Slowly and lalioriously, and with tears streaming down his face, be set forth on the paper his desire to have Dr. Barber come and give him something to alleviate his suffering. All the while he was doing this, his wife lay on the couch moaning and praying for the “Lord to cure Albert." Judge Smith assured Mr. Payne that the doctor would be bent, ana the gratitude for this assurance shown by . him was Eltlful to behold. The Judge told ire. Payne that If she attempted to Interfere with the doctor steps would lie taken to place, her where she could do nothing of that kind. The neigh­ bors will see that the medicines are administered as the doctor prescribes. Undoubtedly the woman is insane on the subject of faith cure, though she appears perfectly rational about other matuere.—Hastings Banner.

One of our agricultural exchanges warns its readers against making love in the fields; says that potatoes have eyes, and that corn has ears and is easily shocked. This may bi sow, but as wheat hearts are not always discreet, it is barley possible that our contemporary's readers will fall to make an oat of his excellent counsel. The hog cholera has made its ap­ pearance tn Bedford township. Thomas P. Godde lost fifteen out of twentyfive thoroughbred Poland-China hogs, Tuesday ami Wednesday.

How dear to the heart Is the old yel­ low pumpkin, when orchards are bar­ ren of stuffln' for pies! When peaches and apples have both been a failure, and berries but few have greeted our eyes: how fondly we turn to the fruit of the cornfield—the fruit that our children are taught to despise—the old yellow pumpkin, the mud-covered pumpkin, the big-bellied pumpkin, that makes such good pies. People driving on the street should not forget that a pedestrian has the right of way in crossing streets, or in fact walk inn along them. Reckless and rapid driving on the main streets Is attended with grave darfger to the Hyes and limbs of those crossing and it is better and safer to slow up a bit than invite possible accidents. Either a wholesome example by arrest or a suit for personal damages may be re­ quired to stop the carlessncss of those who drive at breakneck speed through the main streets. A Battle Creek girl had a fellow. They went to her home and sat in the parlor with the lamp turned low. The Sri's father came home and went to d without knowing there was a call­ er in the house. He woke up about midnight. He heard a noise in the houiwj and thinking he heard burglars below stairs he went down on tiptoe, armed with a club, but with no more clothing than he slept in. He opened the parlor door. The screams from the girl and wild demonical laughter from the young man will ring in his tars for years, but the fellow has not had the pluck to call again.

LD made aphis mind that he is going to die h© grows callous about tbe end and accepts th® situation as a matter of fact. Of coarse it may be bravery, but my observation hue led me to conclude that a majority of persons, when ontxthey find that they are going to die, will meet death coolly. "I had a case not a great while ago which thia recalls. A patient of mine was suffering from a disease which had readied that stage where a physician could do nothing but give the sufferer j ease. On one of my visits the patient I said to me, just as coolly as though he j bad been discussing the weather: " ‘Well, doctor, I know I,m going to die—that's nettled, of course. Now I want you to tell me Inst as near as yen can, just how long I'm going to live. I've got a good deal of basineM to set­ tle up and I want to know as near as possible how much time Lbaye to give IL’ "The coolness of the man rather staggered me, bat I answered him as well as I could, and when I had done so I tried to cote the effect on him. “There was none, fie appeared neither disappointed nor relieved.

"Now, who will say whether courage or some other emotion was uppermost in than man's mind? I do not know. “I suppose,” continued Dr. Shrady, "tliat no man ever displayed more courage than Gen. Grant id his last days. I bad known Gen. Grant, and knew, of course, that he was a very brave man, bnt, I must confess that be surprised even me by the manner in which he wrestled with death even af­ ter it became certain that his time was short. It was a marvelous struggle and the calmness, the foititude and the gentleness and patience of tbe dying general were s’tnply remarkable. He startled me one night by suddenly ask­ ing: "Shradv, am I going to die tonightT “ 'No, general,’ I replied, 'I have no fear that you will die tonight’ *' ‘All right, Shrady,’ was tbe reply; *in that case I am going to walk around the room.

A Young Chicago Trickster Rldos Down Town for Nothing. “I have not failed to ride down town on a North Side grip-car free of charge for a week,” said a smoothfaced, dap­ per young man to his companions as he stood on the corner of Clark and Centre streets waiting for a chance to get aboard a cat. "ThaUso!

The money was pat up in the hands of the other member of tbe party, and tbe trio prepared to board a car. But for some reason tbe first limitscar that came dong did not appear to suit the free ride man, and there being little room in it be had an excuse to wait for the next one. This was a Lincoln avenue, and he directed his friends to get aboard the rear platform while he gained entrance in front, -a he bad explained. Sitting down about the center of tbe car he palled a paper from hia pocket and began reading with great intentness. His friends secured seats near him and watched the proceedings. Tbe conductor went through to tbe front and collected a fare, then on to the two friends, got his nickels, gave an old lady change for a quarter in pen­ nies, refused to accept a Canadian dime from a fashionably dressed young woman .and passed out without so much as a glance in the direction of our reading fnend.

With tbe assistance and advice of Juel Wilcox, Mrs. Delate was preparing to trict. -Thauks to the old Yankee’s buslnws tact, she found that she bad suf* flciwnt money left from tho proceeds of the sale to keep her in comfort for a number of years. Still she was anxious in any case she would have boon com­ pelled to sell it shortly afterwards, foron tho twentieth of tbe month, thirty days after Delano’s death, a noticu was served on the execu tons of the estate to the effect that a note tor (85U.00U) fifty-thousand dollars drawn In favor of Loon Velas­ quex and discounted by him in San Francisco, was due and must be paid in three days. This throws now lighten affairs, and Mrs. Dolaro was aniaxed. Why bad ber husband givon Velasquez a note Kt thirty days for such an amount of money? She was utterly unable to solvo the riddle, and at onco sought her old friend for aid. This is what old Joel Wilcox, tbo -millionaire, said about it: “You kin depend upon it, Mrs. Dolaro, that there is more in this than you or I know at present This note that's a lyin’ in tho bank for you to meet was drawn on •the night that ray friend Mario was murdered, and I'm as sure that it's got sumthin'- to do with that dirty work as 1 am. that Anton- Reyman is innocent of • it all Tho note'll bev to be met, but it'll knock a big bolo tn wbat you got out of tho sale o' tho vineyard to do it So wbon you're ready to soil your house -don't go to anybody else. TH buy it and give you a fair price for it” Mrs. Delaro was much stirred by old Wilcox's words, and it was with a "blanched face that sbo looked up at tho big millionaire, and said: "Mr. Wilcox, do you think for one moment that Leon Velasquez bad any thing to do with the ■death of my poor husband?” "Yes I do,” was tbe reply, “and wbat’smore I’m going to find out just bow much be did hev to do with it, or mj name ain't Joel Wiloox." "I don’t like to think this without some good grounds for the belief,” said tbo beautiful woman; "but i will arouse myself at once. I am unusually quiet and do not as a rule Jump at con­ clusions; but when my husband was cruelly taken from mo it seemed as though my heart had been forcibly torn from its place to bo replaced by a spirit of revenge. Henceforth my duty shell be to find Mario’s slayer. I, too, do net believe Anton Reyman guilty, but—” here her voioe became choked with emotion and passion. The quiet, pas­ sive nature of tho lady was fast fading before tho hot southern blood of an aroused woman, and it was with flash­ ing eyes and panting breath she earnestly exclaimed: "Z wiU find his shrewder ot tbu two men. and while Velasquex brought tbo lambs to the slaughter Crandall managed to catch most of tho blood. Therefore, when this question was suddenly sprung upon him he was decidedly surprised. but. at tbo flame time was too old In the busi­ ness io betray My undue agitation. "Mr. Velasquez. Ah, yes, I remember him now; tho gentleman from San Pao­ la?” be said, with assumed Indifference. “But why do you oome here in search of that gentleman, Mr. Wilcox; it is hardly probable that I should bo aware of tbe fact oven if he did happen to be in town. His calls hero are exceedingly few and far between, like angels' visits, as it were, if f.may be 'permitted to make use of such an old and familiar expres­ sion.'* “What a lie," thought his clerk, (a young Englishman) who had without intention left the door ajar when ho ushered Mr. Wilcox into the private room, and thus beard tho remarks as he sat st his desk in the pubjlo office. “Well,- said Mr. Wiloox, “I have been informed that ho bad a good many busineaa transactions with you and that this would bo a likely place to find him." “Yea," the little broker' responded, “Mr. Velasquez certainly did havo some business to transact with me but bls visit* hero ^rore always of tho modi formal nature, and we woro not on sneb HJ LAAQUKZ?

"I am not tho sort of man to beat around tbe bush, and 1 may as well be plain with you," said Mr. Wilcox. •You havo of course, heard or my friend Mario Delaro's murder near his own wine cellars on tho night of tho twenty-first of last month?” "Yes, I did hoar of tho sad occurance," was tho rejoinder. Joel Wiloox continued: "Tho week before that mur­ der Mr. Delaro told mo of a deal ho made with you. though Velasquez, in some mining stock that-paid big, and I’m hero as areproeontative of Delaro's widow to know if tho matter has over been fixed up." “Yes, I believe It has," replied Crandall; “but to make sure I will stop around to tbe office of tho broker who sold the stock for Velasquez and in­ quire If tho money has boon paid;" say­ ing which he rose to go and handod Mr. Wilcox a newspaper to read during bis temporary absence. As soon as Crandall had gone Joel Wilcox muttered to himsolf: "Well, I wonder how much more money tho vilUan has scraped together. There Is no account of that money being paid to Delaro on his books, at least I couldn’t find it if there was. The yaller-aklnned 'possum tried his best to clean oat hia beat friend before ho killed him.” Be was not left to his thoughts very Tbo Englishman made no demur to was brought in. and, under Its steadily: increasing infinonoc, be told the. mill­ ionaire all he .knew about Velasquez. "So you say be was squeezed into a corner the day before tbe murder," asked Wilcox. "Ym, and n pretty tight one, too,r was tbe rejuladur. “but. as bo loft the office, I heard him tell .Mr. Crandall that he would gel the money In three days by fair means or .by foul." "Whew!” was tho only reply. Then Percy proceeded and told what had happened since, how Valosqucz bought up tbe mining stock certificates, and sold them at a sleek profit, and bow be bad held a note for fifty thousand dol­ lars, given him by Delaro. which Cran­ dall panaged, by false representations to get discounted fur him on the quiet. Finally. Lovel told how only a week1 ■ ago, Velasquez came into the office and wont with Crandall to cash a check for a good part of forty thousand dollars which bo said was tbe proceeds of the share in tho sale of tho Posada vine­ yards. Lovel gave it aa his opinion that Valasquez had started East with very little short of a hundred thousand dollars cash money in bis possession. "Do you know which way be went?" asked Mr. Wiloox. • “No, I do not, sir," was tbe reply. "Now, come, Percy, we shall get along a good deal hotter without any ot that kind of business. Don't 'Sir* me any more,” said tho plain-spoken Yan­ kee. . Lovel smiled and continued: "Velas­ quez said ho might stop at Denver awhile, but he expected to be in Chica­ go inside of ten days." This information woke up tho mill­ ionaire and he said: “Then time is precious. Aro you willing to go with mo to San Paola to-morrow, Percy?” "Well," said LovoL "tho question is rather sudden. Mr. Wilcox, and 1 might lose my place if I go without Mr. Cran­ dall’s permission.” “Curse your position!" ejaculated Wilcox. “Como with me and help to run that villain to earth and i'll see that you havo a position as long aa I live." “That settles it,” said Percy. “I've been drifting all over for tbu last seven years and I may as well keep it up." The next day tbo millionaire and his new-found friend, tho poor English clerk, started off to San Paula together and forged links of friendship that were only snapped by death, while Crandall lost a good clerk who waa too honest for his questionable service.

Hia father woe killed in the Greek Revolution while Mr. Miller waa an infant, and his mother died soon after her husband waa killed. A abort time afterward he was adopted by an Amer­ ican. Col. J. P. Miller, who had also fought in the Grecian war, and came with that gentleman to America in 1828. From him he took his last name. Miller. Col. J. P. Miller located at Montpelier, Vt., und it was there that Lucas grew to manhood. He received an academic education, and read law with Col. Miller and United States Senator William Upham. At the age of 21 years he was admitted to the bar. In 1846 he came West and located at Oshkosh, Wis., then a little Indian trading village of half a dozen houses, and has, resided there ever since. At one time he owned 1,000 acres qf land in and around Osh­ kosh. He was one of a company that built the first bridge across the Fox River. During the Mexican war he was appointed by Gov. Henry Dodge Colonel of a territorial militia com­ pany, hence his military title of Colonel. He was a member of the Wisconsin Legislature in 1853, and was a member of the County Board of Su­ pervisors for twelve years, being Chair­ man of that body ten years. When he was Chairman of the Board he al­ ways sent a barrel of apples to the meetings. He is not a close-fisted man. but is noted for keeping his “bar!” closed during campaigns. His campaign expenses amounted to exactly $13.65. Mr. Miller is not noted for his oratorical powers, but he is a great worker. . AN AMUSING PASTIME. How can a knife be held so accurate­ ly underneath a pear that, when tho string is lighted, the fruit falls upop the knife in such a manner that it is cut in two ? It is not necessary to have a plumb­ line in order to find the cutting point, but it can .be easily done by dipping the pear into water. A few drops will trickle down from the ]>ear and fall into one and the same place. Thisj spot must be accurately marked, butt so that it is only visible to the initiated, who can make all these preparations before doing the trick before his audi­. ence, letting them find the pear alreadyr suspended from the wall or a chandelier. Then let some one in the audience light> tbe thread, and in falling the pear willi be split in two parts. ( This little experiment can also be made with two knives crossing each other, says the St Louis Postscript. A few trials will soon demonstrate’’ where the knives must be crossed in1 order to split the pear into four pieces, which can be caught in the fall by a1 1 tea-tray or a plate. It is needless to1 say that the fruit must be soft and the1 knives well-sharpened in order to make1 the trick successful. The third centenary of the publi­ ’ cation of Spenser's “Fairie Queen," and also of Sir Philip Sidney's “Count­' ess'of Pembroke's Arcadia,” though it’ mav not be made the occasion for pub­ lic recognition, is well worth bearing in1 mind, especially by Londoners.

The crowd of women* and children trouud the gates in doubtful despair as to the fate of relatives or friends pro­ moted a sight which was painful to wit­ ness. On reaching tho furnaces there were hundreds of men whose faces de­ noted the intensity of their feeling and what they were prepared to sacrifice if their help could aid in any way to rescue tho victims from under the tons of masonry and Iren which burled them. Superintendent Pettigrew was leading :he rescuing party by all the skillful means in his power, and there were plenty of willing hands ready to aid In tbe work. Dre. Nash. Kelly, and Dougall were on the ground, but, on learning from Mr. Pettigrew that there was little likelihood of any under the wreck being alive, all left for the hospital. On reaching that Institution there were crowds outside and - Inside, as the Sisters made no effort to check tho friends and relatives from accompanying their injured.

Tho furnace has stood where it docs for years and carried a load of from 1.000 to 1.500 tons without a particle of trouble. It surely ought to be strong enough to stand by Itself, and 'a* far as any living man could toll it was ■so. Tin- accident cannot be accounted fur. so far as we know now. and it will probably remain a'mystery.” Kllcullen was the most scrious’y In­ jured. His left leg was shockingly mangled, and the surgeons were oblig'd to amputate it above tbe knee. His right was broken below the knee, and be was badly bruised. As to the cause there are different opinions. The superintend­ ents cannot account for It. Some of the men claim that tho Iron was rotten. It is also stated that tbo Insurance compa­ nies sometime ago canceled all their pol­ icies and refused to carry any risks on lives of men working about this furnace on account of th ) great hazard.

Joel Wilcox took the opportunity to have a good long talk with Percy Ix>vel and ascertain what that young man know about the many transactions which hod taken place be­ tween Velasquox and CrandallSometimes the young Englishman got very communicative for he was naturally a free open-hearted sort of a follow, not more than twenty-seven years of ago. or thereabouts. , Wilcox liked him so well that be asked Lovel to give him a little of bis history. Said Lovel: ‘‘If I tell you my history you may not think so well of me after you bear it as you do now.” “Oh, I dare say. like most young men who drift to Frisco, you have led a kinder wild life, but it is evident you wore primed with a pretty good educa­ tion before you started in on it," was tbe response. “Yes,” said the Englishman. “1 sup­ pose that’s so, and since I loft Oxford I have aoen life through the kaleidoscope of many promiscuous journeying*. I left homo before 1 was twenty, got through a good pile of money In Paris and Brus­ sels and then suddenly found myself In New York. I played the races, gambled and knocked around from one job to another and altogether led a Bohemian life. But I feel like sobering up now; it isn’t necessary for a fellow to be a vag­ abond all bis life, and I’m ready for tbo change. It isn’t more than three weeks since I handled tbo chips for tbe last time, but 1 have done with it for keeps. By the way, tbo very last game I sat down to was in the samo room that Velas­ ques frequented and he dropped over five thousand dollars that night. It was the same evening be sold the mining stock. He often used to come to that don. and some of the boys there know a good deal abont him. but 1 very muoh ques­ tion whether any of them would tell you much.” “Good,” remarked level's newly found friend, “Pm glad to hear that your are tired of your wild Ufa. and, wbat'a more, I believe you. So from now on you will please consider yourself private secretary to Joel Wilcox. I never did put on airs before, but I guess I ain’t too old to begin. Is it a gor “Why, yon astonish me. Mr. Wilcox; but I will try to deserve your confi­ dence." “AH right; I count myself a pretty good judge of a man when 1 see one, and I think that so far as 1 am concerned. 1 am /rat* in engaging you for an unlimit­ ed period; the salary question we can settle as we go along.” added Wilcox in a jovial manner. “But what,*' he continued, “was that you said about Vqlasques being known by the boys in the gambling house?" Percy then repeated what he had alrtedj recounted, and Mr. Wiloox said that the knowledge might bo useful in bunting down the rascal As both Mr. Wilcox and the English­ man were good talkers tho conversation was kept up in a lively manner, and it was not long before Wilcox knew all about Percy from his childhood up. As the train pulled up at San Paola Mr. Wilcox said: "Ahl 1 guess, my boy, you've been more of a fool than an in­ tentional scamp.” The remark was full of truth, for Percy Lovel was never really bad. only one of tboso lads so especially common among the better English classes who become utterly reckless in the eager pursuit of “folly as it file*" Yet through ail his ups and downs he was nonchalant, eas j--tempo red and cool as an iced cucumber. Always ho could find time to part bis hair In the right place, no matter if the bouse was on fire; but he could also be relied upon to reach tbe outside safely. And no matter whore or how deep he would sink in life’s turbulent waters, he in­ variably camo to tbe top again smiling. ------- HAVE THEIR-------- MEAT MARKET Fully stocked with FRRffl, SALT AND SMOKED MEATS, SAUSAGE, LARD POULTRY, OYSTERS And everything which should be found in a first class market. .Quarters of Beef for sale at very low prices.

Yesterday bno of this man’s boys was bathing in the stream which flow* at the foot of the bill yonder." said the lady, pointing from the window as she spoke, "and, in diving to pick objects from tbe mud in tbe bottom of the river, found .th is weapon.” Here Mrs. Delaro produced an ivory handled, stiletto upon the handle of which was carved the initials "1* V.” ‘Great gun*,’’ exclaimed Wilcox, "wo shall prove that snake guilty soon­ er than I expected." Then a long conversation ensued and tho workman was asked to repeat bis story to Wileox. and so much engrossed did everybody become in the recitation that in the excitement of tho hour it was forgotten that Lovel had not been introduced. But Mr. Wilcox soon made amends for bls forgetfulness and told Mrs. Delaro of the value of bls newly-formed acquaintance. There was much to be said about the new clew and Velasques’s former his­ tory, and Percy warmed up and became almost enthusiastic over his prospective work. They discussed how every thing should .be arranged. On the morrow they proposed to go to the lawyer at Banta Rosa, and inform him of tbe new developments. They supposed naturally that Velas­ ques bad little Idea of bls crime being discovered so soon, if over, and that ho was probably on bis way East. So they did not raise a hue and cry at once but decided that it would be far wiser, and more prudent, to be sure they were right before going ahead. The next day they all started for Santa Rosa, the county seat, where the trial was to be held, and Wilcox was at last full of hope that tbo unfortunate Anton would soon be released. A consultation was hold with the law­ yers, but they did not deem it wise to take stope to secure a warrant for Velaaquex’s arrest; they advised wait­ ing until after the trial of Anton Bey­ roan. The trial was set tor ten days later, and at that time nearly every adult In­ habitant of San Paola was at Saau Boss. Tho witneeaea who had appeared be­ fore tbe coroner aud tbe grand jury were again called, and during the first part of the proceedings there eras only a repetition of the former scenes at the inquest, no new disclosures being made. But there was a tumult of excitement wuen Percy Beaufort Lovel had been called and his testimony taken. Wbat he said furnished unexpected development to all except tbe princi­ pals In lhe dramr*. and created not only surprise but Intense indignation among tho people. Then the boy who bad found tho sti­ letto was called and examined. The weapon was produced and the servants of tho Delaro household were called to testify that they had seen the weapon several times lying on tho bureau In Mr. Velasques’s room. Other »! tn eases followed, who spoke In glowing terms of Anton’s character, ■nd then the judge commenced to charge tbe jury. He told them that tbe guilt could not be justly transferred from tbe shoulders of the prisoner to those of Velasques on the evidence given and made prolonged reference to Ankm’s angry talk with Delaro and the tact that bo followed tbe mnrdered man out of tho cellars. The judge was just suggesting the reasonableness and probability of Rey­ man having committed, the foul deed, when Percy Level, a ho had been care­ fully scrutinizing tbe stiletto, inter­ rupted. Tbe young fellow bad noticed that the point of tbe weapon was broken. Only an extremely small fragment of the point was missing, but It waa large enough to be noticed. He banded the dagger to the lawyer for the defense and drew bls attention to the fact. Toe lawyer understood its purport in a mo­ ment In a rather rude and hasty manner, but sueb as the occasion demanded, he called upon the judge to desist In his summing up, and asked that further evidence bo taken. Tbe judge, who was strictly impar­ tial, remarked that tn such a case it was hardly possible that so blunt a point could have penetrated tbo dead man's body a* deeply as Delaro’s wound, but that this was a matter worthy the up most consideration of tho jury. “Yes, indeed it is,-your honor," said the lawyer for the defense; "but per­ mit me to suggest that measures be st once taken to find the point of this weapon before this man Reyman is un­ justly convicted. Tbe moat likely place to find it would be in Delaro’s body, and if It is, then there will not bo much doubt as to tbe identity of the actual murderer." “It seems hardly credible that it could have broken off inside of tbo body," suggested tbe Judge; "wo can consult some professional, ad vice on tho mat­ ter.” . "Then the best man to get that ad­ vice from is Joel Wiloox,” was tho law­ yer’s reply. “Lot Joel Wilcox be called to the stand.” said tbe judge to the usher. Upon being sworn Wilcox gave bls opinion, as an old blacksmith and as a man who had worked all kinds of both iron and steel, hot or cold. Said be: -It tbe point of lhe stiletto bad not been proparly tempered. it ‘is highly probable that iu striking against a bone in a man’s body It would break off " "Then the body shall be exhumed and the piece of su-el sought for," said the judge. Whereupon tbe court ad­ journed until the following day That same afternoon the body of Delaro was oxbumed aud sure enough, the piece of steel was found sticking to tbe bottom of tbe leftshoulder blade, Tue doctor produced tbe fragment next day in courL and it was found to At flXOCtfr to tfi? itilotto. in nil ANTA CLASS i GLASSOW, Having entered into partnership, we are offering to the public, for the next two weeks, the following sensible Holiday presents: A White Sewing Machine, Garland Heating Stove, Garland Cook Stove, Grand Oil Heater, Set of Fire Irons, Carpet Sweeper, Fancy Tea or Coflfee Pot, | Crumb Pan and Brush, Set of Silver Knives and Forks, • Set of Silver Tea Spoons, Set of Silver Table Spoons, Silver Butter Knife, Silver Sugar Shell, Pair of Nickle-plated Shears.

Tho last speaker was Armid.n Delaro. Eleven years had elapsed since sho left of tbe Paoliictloni.iand now dho'was grown into ono of the most perfect of God’s creat­ ures—u beamllul woman. The rich Southern blood whichehe hod inherited from her parents tmgod her cheeks with a subdued flush of porfe-t health.., Sho was a tall, graceful girl, and a per­ fect type of tiouthorn beauty; though a decided brunette she waa not so dark as to bo distinguished for it With her beauty sho seemed to have inherited . also the sweat disposition o'! her mother, together with tho Trank upen-heartedness of her ftther. , Mother and daughter were sitting in a private parlor forming one of their suite of room» at tho West End Hotel, Long Branch, where they had been spending lhe summer. It was only dur­ ing the last two years that Mrs. Jtelaro had enjoyed much of her daughter's so­ ciety, for they had necessarily been thrown very much apart owing to tbo mother's set determination to personal­ ly assist In the search for her busband’s .murderer. This employment, which had kept her traveling all the time, combined with the fact that Armida had been at­ tending school at a convent near to Paris gave them very little opportunity of being together. • Mrs. Delaro really showed very little sign of tho struggles she had undergone in her features, though a close observer migb’. have -noticed a settled and de­ termined expression which told with­ out tho aid of words that she was a woman living with a purpose. And indeed her purpose was stern as ever, for as sho sat on this bright Sep­ tember morning talking to her daugh­ ter, horthoughts.weA-- far away with her two staunch friends, Joel Wilcox and Percy Lovel, who had left her two weeks before to follow up a clew al New Orleans. They had only written twice oinco thqir departure, aud even t^H-n hod given no particulars, so that she was anxious and longed to know whether or not they wore meeting with Sueoea*. Often and often had she waited like this before, but her Interest had never flagged, nur bur dosiru for vengeance become less keen - When tn conversa­ tion with her t<Rq> loyal friends she al­ ways spoke hcpefully of the ultimate guccess of her life work and Lad fre­ quently intimated that she fully exface before death should call bur to meet her husband.

The elder Blodger had. like many of ' his ilk. io tbc»o bis later days-of wi-alth and leisure, turned hi attention to books and study in tho fund hope that he might pas-, for an educated man in that society toward which his inclina­ tions and ambition now led him- The result was that smattering of superficial knowledge which is socKceedingly dan­ gerous; for in his unguided search in the higher realms of knowledge Stophon Blodger had not deemed it necessary to improve his grammar, and as a conse­ quence his conversation oft-tinie^ em­ bodied a strange conglomeration of th® classic sciences and fine arts, dished up in miserably bad English. Recently this gchfus hod developed into a poet and he was never scon out without his scrap book under his arm. in which he hod pasted his own efforts, written on foolscap Ln a largi-i reund hand, together with numerous choice pieces which be had clipped at odd times from tho columns of the Sunday papers. As this worthy individual en­ tered tho parlor he bowed low and said with abroad smile, precisely as Armida had mimicked him a moment before: “Good morning -radios; Mr. Stephen Blodger at your service." Tho two ladies returned the greeting and the usual every day questions re­ garding health and the weather having followed, Mr. Blodger drew from the aide pocket of a loud-patterned tourist jacket which he wore, a tablet, and said: “Ladies, I have been sitting in quiet H-flusion upon the sands shadowed by a large suu umbruila and my thoughts.

There was one on his face and another on his wrist, but his feet were npt visible. “He seemed to bo Jhe man," remarked Porcupine. Two days afterward Christ talked to them all day. lie told them what he wanted them to do, and explained what he himself would do to aid them. He asked thcn> to remain at peace with the white men. They must prepare for their coming deliverance and spread the news xs far and xs wide as possible. from home.

A R!ancc at the situation in the Northwest, and a brief considera­ tion of the treat­ ment of the Indians by their conquerors, the white men, may shed some light upon tho primary cause for this threatened uprising. . Brooding dissatisfaction over years of lll-trfeaiment has caused tho advent of this promised Redeemer to be treated with joy by the Indians. With the westward march of civilization the Indi­ an has been crowded further and further back. His boundless prairies have been wantonly depleted of their game. The buffalo Is extinct. Th* deer has retreat­ ed to the forests. The Indians to-day are prisoners. They are kept upon res­ ervations limited In extent and limited in their stock of game and fish. No wonder, then, that the Indian has come to the conclusion that Christ w&s only for the white man. Havin' 1m­ > bibed the Idea of a Messianic Savior, it Is no wonder that he seized upon the Idea of a red man’s Christ with avidity, adopted It, and worked .himself tip to a religious frenzy at the hope that he would at no remote date regain his free­ dom. his prairies, his game, and his tribal relations. It is a mystery where this idea orig­ inated. Sitting Bull, the great war chief of the Dakota Sioux. Is unques­ tionably at the .bottom of all the trouble. But the Idea of an Indian messiah Is not his own. Neither is it that of Porcu­ pine, the cunning qld chief of the Chey­ ennes, who claims to have talked with the mes^iah and vblted the “fiaupy hunt­ ing grounds." Porcupine’s description of the locality In which he was taught the gospel of this mysterious tnessiah, together with There seems to be little room for doubt that the Mormons of Utah and Nevada are at the bottom of the new craze. In many of Its features it resembles tj»c Mormon faith. It bears the ear-marks of Mormonism all over IL Ono of the cardinal doctrines of the Mormon faith is u belief In revelation. From time to time the apostles of the Latter-Day Saints, as they call them­ selves, see visions and have all sorts of things revealed to them by God. So that not only does tho location of the new messlah but the c»jenUal point* In the whole story point to the Mormons as the authors of the evil. Among the Arapahoe Indians In Wy­ oming It Is supposed the messianic craze was first started. They talked of It In the fall of 1BS9, during a visit of Porcu­ pine to Shoshone Agency. The doctrine waa preached by an Indian called Sage, who said he learned It while in the coun­ try to the sauthwost of th® Shoshone Agency during the summer. This man Sage <! 'scribed where the mcsalah was to be found, and intimated that ho had come on earth for the pur­ pose of restoring It to its rightful owners —the Indians;* that he would wipe the white men from the fate of the earth, and restore the country to the condition in wbldi it was three hundred years agoThe Cheyenne chief, Porcupine, was nataraVy inforoitad by thia. He and his compartlot s determined to go to see this new Rfd^'Uirr.

A great wave of earth will pass over the whole crowd, burying everything thirty feet deep Beneath it. The whole race of white men. with their towns, their railroads, their ships and munitions of war, will be exterminatedby this burial. The red men will bo buried, too. but will have a supernatural power given them, by which they will climb out through the stratum of earth. When they arrive on the surface they will find themselves purified. They will find every trace of civilization and the hated pale-face wiped out. . The prairies will be covered with wav­ ing gras* waist-deep. Buffalo will roam as they did of yore. The spirits of the departed dead will ail be there, restored Indians Porcupine learned that Christ had apiwar.-d ui>on earth again and had sent for him. thus explaining why he unconsciously had started on his Jour-’ noy. The Great Father was said to be with Christ, and eleven of the latter’s sons were also there. At a great pow-wow the Great Father sent word to I*orcupiue, through the sons of the chief, that In the course of fourteen days he would visit them. Then followed a most remarkable scene, in which tlic hand of the Mormon hierarchy Is apparent Two days they waltod in expectation. At the end of that time a vast concourse of Indians was assembled.

Gov­ ernor Pattison’s political career has l»cen a remarkable one for so young a man. At 27 years of age he was nom­ inat'd by the Democrat* for Con­ troller of the city of Philadelphia and was elected by 2,000 majority. Two years later he stood for a second term, and was chosen by a majority of 13.600, although Garfield, al the same elec­ tion, carried the city by 20.000 vote*. In 1882 the Democrats of Pennsyl­ vania, concluding that they had a mas­ cot in their midst, pnt turn forward for Governor, and he . was elected over General Beaver by a plu­ rality of 40,000. Pattison became Governor at 33 years, and was the youngest Executive the Statjj ever had. In l«l’0 the Democrats again turned to their mascot, aud named him a second time for Governor.

Mr. Davltt. accompanied by Father O’Balloran. was the first of tho prominent speaker* that arrived, and be Look hla stand tn tho higher part of tbe square near tho church. Cheer* and counter-cheer* and partisan about a were vociferously Indmgod in by tho assembled member* of thft two faction*. Mr. Bedtnood began speaking simultane­ ously with Mr. Davltt. The advent of an­ other party, headed by several priest*, driving briskly through tbe crowd, put a temporary stop to tho speeches at both meetings. Tho newcomer* ranged tLotusclvc* alongside of the car occupied by Mr. Davttt amid a chorus of mingled cheer* and execrations. Mr. Hcully took up the speaking and was expressing ‘ his view* when great shouting announced the arrival of Parnell and Har­ rison ami a number of supporters on horse­ back and in car*. Parnell's appearance be­ side Retlnioixl was the signal for cheers and yell* of »Tally-bo. the fox." and “Kitty's petticoat.” Amid tbe din Mr. Parnell spoke to tbe group around him as follows: ’ “1 come among you to insult no rnan. [Ed­ ward Harrington—No, aud we will protect ourselves.] I edmo to speak of tbe great national crisis. I will not enter into a personal contest with uny man.

Several men now made a strong effort to drag tbe wagonette Into the midst of tho anti-Parnell gathering, but were dissuad­ ed aud stopped. Mr. Parnell, resuming, maintained that the con»l»tcnc;-- of bit public life had been preserved amid hl* unceasing efforts to create and preserve an independent Irish party. The enemy had been unable to cope with them in tbe open field. They were unable to meet them with physical force, so they sent this rat. Hennessy, to iry to dd by corruption what they had failed to do by ev^ry other method. The Internal dl«aenaion* which were destroying the party were not of bls creating. Having made an unavailing fight nt Westminster for Inde­ pendence. ho had been forced to appeal to tho people. [Mr. lied mo nd—“Wo will fight for you till death.”] The people were slack and cowardly. If thej* fulled to come to aJust, true and patriotic decision Ireland's cause wa« lost for-all time. Mr. Harrison was altout to follow Mr. Panel!, anti Mr. Tanner was speaking, when u sudden eon 11 let arose on the verge of tbe crowds. A rush was made toward Davltt'* car, and a $h neral melee ensued. A forest of a*hp!an< stick* and blackthorns dividing Hmm of the opposing factions met. Mr. Davltt leaped from his car. wielding a thick hazel stick, and fought bls way foot by foot straight toward Mr. i’aruHl’s wagon, receiving and giving numerous blows. Ho finally reached the wagon hatle** and with bls face badly marked and with a few of his severe usage they had received In their desperate passage between the two vehicles. Standing on the steps of Mr. Parnell’s wagon Mr. Dnvltt uttered a breathless and Indistinct defiance, then turned surrounded by hl* faithful supporters, amid the continuous yells and execration* of the two ccntending and wt:d y exciting fac­ tions. and -with an exchange of a shower of blown Mr. Dnvltt thin remounted hl* car and shouted: “Men of Kilkenny: I come hero in <lcfenseot the rights of public meeting aud liberty of sueech.

I was never struck by an Englishman, but to-aay I was many lime* struck by my own countrymen;’’ These remarks, were greeted with tumul­ tuous cheers, after which the crowd began tlocoruor. Mr. Davitt and Mr. Tanner fol­ lowing in their wake. Mr. Parnell afterward spoke to a small meeting/ While1 other Parnellltes were addressing the crowd a number of Davltt'* follower* got together and began booting at the speakers. The Parnellltes dosed nro*:nd the vehicle from which their orators were addressing the people, and the police ■ap­ peared and tried to divide tbe factions. The meeting ended in a scene of wild con­ fusion. and Parnell and hLs friends drove off amid a shower of stones and mud. Frequent attempts to assail tbe members of the party were made, and several bags filled with lime were thrown at them. Mr. Harrington** shoulders were covered with lime, and a mass of lime struck Mr. Par­ nell full tn the face, completely blinding him. This Insult infuriated Mr. Parnell’s friends. Mr. Harrington turned and ad­ vanced toward Father Downey, who was at tho head of Mr. Parnell's opponents, and shouted: “Coward, you are a disgrace to your church!” The police here again in­ terfered. and Mr. Parnell's parly, who had left their cars, again took their seats and were quite closed, were intecxely painful. Ho was soon obliged to stop his carriage, which he iofl and entered a laborer'* cabin In a fainting condition. A Leal doctor at­ tended him. Tho Mme had become caked beneath bi* eyelids, and the doctor was only able io remove aotuo of it by using a vllk handkerchief and some hair-oil he found in the cabin. Tho physician finally advised Mr. Parnell to drive Immediately to Kilkenny. So the latter re-entered hla carriage and proceeded oa hl* Journey. But tbe pain again became so intense that a recund bait *a* made, this time at a road<1 du pubitc-bouse. where the doctor made further eff irts to relievo the terribkpain which Mr. Parnell was .-.uffcrlrur." During his speech at BulllnakllF Parnell swung his cap and shouted. “Down with Hong Kung nnd English dictation! To h—I with Hong Ken;!" This extraordin­ ary expression drew nil eye* to him and cauuod .mxny persons to wonder if he hud not been drinking. He looked wild enough to justify this. Mr. Parnell, who now calls Mr. Gladstone a “garrulous old gcotiotban," pronounced him four year* ago an “Illus­ trious Englishman who towers head and shoulders above a’i living men. for whoso equal iar a statesman and a philanthro­ pist wo have to search the pages of his­ tory in vain.” Gen.

BIOGRAPHICAL. , The morning stars did not sing to­ gether. nor was there any unusual dis­ turbance In nature on June ftth, 1862, at the quiet city of Canton, Ohio. Nevertheless something of importance happened at that time aud place. It was then and there that Len W. Feighner first opened his eyes on the work!. He has continued to go through the world with his eyes open, and usually “on the main chance.4 It Is recorded that in his first acquain­ tance with this cold and dreary sphere, he got there with both feet. Natur­ ally he was christened; later’on he playc<l marbles with the other toys; and then he went to school a part of the time; studied when he wanted to; lied to the school marm In true G. Washington hatchet fashion; went swimming as soon as the ice was out of the river. While Canton is «the home of McKinley, yet our subject ascribes none uf the few streaks of bad luck of his early life to the McKinley bill. His folks moved to Hastings with him while yet he was in thevealy days of youth. In the year 1869. He was wide-awake, tender-hearted, gotxi natured. but showed a. disposition to resent any Interference with his rights. It soon became noised around that he was able and abundantly willing to took out for No. 1, knew his business and attended to IL At the age of 13 he enured the Journal office, and for six months officiated as Satan with dignity and urbanity. But’he was no mean “devil”. He learned rapidly and stored away useful information about •round squares”, “hollow shooting sticks,” "type lice,” and other knowl­ edge of that sort, and Imparted it with variations to his successor. Later on he entered the Banner office as -typo, and was a good one. As he grew to manhood, he developed a fondness for the gentler sex. Soon had a "best girl.- who was “only a sister to him.” He took her to the church socials, and made the usual unavailing stab for tbelonesome oyster in tbesoup. If he perchance found it, he generously di­ vided it with his fair partner. There wasn't anything small about blm even in those halcyon days. As be progresjwd In the “art preservative” better things opened up before him. He worked in Chicago and Muskegon print, shops, learning something, earning something, saving something every day. It was a guud experience, from which he profited. Six years ago he began as foreman of the Nashville News: and Oct. 26th, 1885, he con­ cluded he'd been a bachelor long enough, so he married Miss Stella Wil­ son, one of Nashville’s fairest daugh­ ters, and they have been true helpmetes erer since. About these days The News proprietor was wont to he troubled with “western fever”—kind of lost Interest In his business, and gave to his bright-witted foreman carte blanche to conduct tbe paper to his own tastes. This Len did, and the chance was the making of him. He grew Into the work which seemed to be carved out for him. His snappy write-ups of local events proved highly valuable to the paper, and our subject was not slow to see that as fur news­ paper work he “was In it,” and he liked It. When Orno had a particular savage return of tbe fever hto foreman talked “buy,” and Oct. 1st. 1888, found <kif hero happy as 8 clam In high tide, proprietor of the Nahhvillk News, which under his wise management has become brighter and better than ever.

The MMsateur detectives had l»een to New .Orleans, had watched for several days a .man with an irun-gr*y mustache and .Beard resembling Vefasquos whom they । too nd in that olty. From Now Orleans |toey had followed him to Cuba only to 'dUoover that bn was an innocent Cuban who had been out on a protracted spree. It was one more added to th? many disappointments they bad already ex­ perienced: so with sad hearts they left toe.Cr. scont city and returned to join Mrs. Dcl&ro and her daughter at Long Branch. Their preeenco was never more wel­ come, for the widow was secretly long­ ing for a chanjo of enono, while Armida Mad openly expressed tho same desire. It was about an hour after dinner of toe day on which they returned. Mr. Wilcox was up in the parlor relating his ■sclo&s adventures and fruitless chase after the innocent Cuban to Mrs.'Deiaro, and Armida was keeping Percy Level company while he smoked a cigar on too piazza. The two last named sat •ear to an open window of the ball­ scorn. and. as they talked, watched tbe couples who were already assembling to lake part in the German that evening. During the interval which had •lapsed since Percy mol Mr. Wilcox in Ban Francisco the Englishman bad grown quite stout and had very mltoh improved his appearance by cultivating a beard. As he sal near to the lovely girl to­ night no one would have remarked that toere was a great disparity of age be­ tween them—that ia to say the fact would not have struck a casual observer eery forcibly. Percy had grown into a handsome. Broad-chested min, and possessed a healthy appearance which denoted that ho had forsaken most of the foolish THEY SAT WATCHING THE COVPI-XS ASSEM­ BLE IN THE BALL-KOOM. ways of his youth and was living as a seasonable-minded man should do. He was a pleasant and fluent oonversatlonalisL though ho never unpleasantly ob•ruded his opinions. Lie conducted limself with that tangfrvid tor which most Englishmen are. for some reason or other, said to be celebrated. If he had any sorrows he never ex­ pressed them. Armida bad tried onoe or twioe to get tho affable "secretary” to give her an account of some of bis early llatory, but she soon discovered her questions pained him and now forebore to touch upon the subject. Between Armida and Percy a bond of friendship seemed to have been formed, which, although the expression may be eonsidered stereotyped. Is best de­ scribed as that of an older brother to a •is ter. They bad long called each other by their first names and had both drifted . into tho habit quite unconsciously and tn an unnotlcenbla, innocent manner. Percy ha 1 jnst finished his cigar and they had ear a risen to promenade a Httlr while before joining tbe older people. Just as they moved away Armida laid her head on Percy’s arm and said: “Do you see that elderly gentleman stand­ ing near the musicians?” “The- Sall one with tho dark beard?" aakod Percy. “Yes. that is tho man I moan.” “Why?” said Percy. "Do you know . limr “I was introduced to him tho other r evening and ho has pestered me with attentions ever since. Became here first toe day aftor you left for New Orleans” “la- toere any thing very unpleasant about Bfs attentions?" was Percy’s next question. • “Decidedly so. He is a man toward whore I formed q^dfalike at first sight, and besides, ho dyes his beard. Some­ how I nover could like a man whose ■ board was black all over except at tho voata" K "You must bo of an ultra-observing •ature," remarked Percy. ‘That is one of the things any woman 'w*!L observe,” was the reply, - Tkt n sho ’Twntlnubd: “Bis alien Hons.., uro-the non objectionable because they are ao marked.

If the truth were known, that he is at an age when damning is one of tbe last things which would be expected of him.” “Who is bo?" asked Percy. "He was introduced to me as Mr. Emerick, and he volunteered the in-' formation that bo is engaged in the •hipping trade with South America. Mis place of businoM is in New York, 1 Believe." Percy had been intently watching Hr. Emerick during the conversation gnd was getting interested. “Is bo an American?" ho now asked. “No, he is not, but it would be difB•olt to tell what bis nationality really *» “u .n-.-v, perfect English, but there “ MISS MAIlLOW, WIIKllX UAVX TOtf BEEN IHDIKO?'' addressing mo as Miss Marlow. Up to the present I have no intention of cor­ recting the error, thinking his occasions for speaking to mo likely to be very few, and indeed they will, as wo are going away in a day or two.” “It may bo imagination,” said Percy, “but there is something familiar to me in that man's movements: at times he moves in a manner which I recognise, and then, again, ho seems te act as though in in unnatural manner. How•ver. 1 suppose it is, if anybody at all, lomo ono 1 mot in Paris in the days of long ago Any way, there & no reason why we should watsbihlm; your Interest in him is only slight and I have none whatever. So let us move on.” With these words they moved away. An hour later they were back in the same spot, and as they sat talking the gentleman whom they had watched earlier in tho evening came toward them and stood beside their chairs al­ most before they had noticed him. “Good evening. Miss Marlow. Where have you been hiding youraalf of late? Your presence has not graced the ball­ room during tbe entire evening.” “No. I have been too weary to dance. The hard society work of tho past few .weeks has almost prostrated ma. But pardon mo—Mr. Emerick, allow mo to introduce Mr. LoveL” Tho two gentleman exchanged greet­ ings, and tho elder ono remarked: “Our charming young friend Miss Marlow is in great demand among tho gentlemen of our circle here. Will you not both join us In the ball-room?” “I fear you have mistaken tho lady's Dame,” said Percy, looking his listener straight in tbe face; “her name is not Marlow, but Delara" The stranger seemed confused, appar­ ently on account of bls blunder, but he quickly recovered his polite composure and profusely apologised to Armida. "1 hope you will allow that it was quite a natural mistake,” ho said. “1 trust 1 am pardoned; tho fact is that a pistol shot was fired near to my left ear when I was quite young which deafened mo, and as I stood to the right of the lady who introduced me to Miss Del are, tbe mistake is accounted for. Am I pardoned?" ho aakod. turning to Ar­ mida. “Certainly.” was the reply. The tall stranger did not remain long in their company after that. A few or­ dinary civilities were passed and ho left them, ostensibly to return to the ball-room, but Armida aftera-ards re­ marked to Percy that he had not done so. "I share your dislike for tho affable gentleman,” said Percy, as ho and Ar­ mida returned to their rooms. Late that night when nearly every­ body had gone to bed Percy went to Mr. Wilcox's room to have a few words with that worthy individual. “Won't you smoke a cigar, Percy?" the old man asked. Percy accepted one, and when be had lit it he threw himself back In his chair and opened up quietly by saying: “Mr. Wilcox." “Well, my boy," for ho still called Percy a boy, "I am all attention; what's In the wind, another clew?” “No, not this time. We are called upon to protect and not to prosecute," said Percy. “Who claims our protection?” asked bis friend and counsellor. "Armida Dolaro,” was the reply. “Who has” designs on that sweet sreaturo?” asked tbe millionaire. Then Percy told all he had seen and beard that night. "This mysterious man is undoubted­ ly bestowing his attentions on Armida for a purpose of bis own, and as It only distresses her we must stoplb” “You seem very much afraid that Armida is falling into danger in that man's presence, but don't you think that •be is able to care for herself?" "That may be," said Percy, “but if I mistake not, that man is a designing old villain, and the leas be sees of Armida the better. I do not like bis looks and he remind* me too much of tho man we are looking for. At' these words Mr. Wilcox sat bolt upright in bis chair. He was full of in­ terest now. i "How do you moan? Does chi* follow resemble Mm in features? ho aakod. bis yacht. “Did she accept?" . "No, she gave a qxnet but very posi­ tive denial. He also told her some story about burying a wife years ago in Italy, and altogether has been quite commu­ nicative with bar.” aaid Percy, between the puffs at his cigar. “Well, we can make it impossible for him to get another chance of annoying ■her during tho remainder of our stay here, and when wa get bask to New York it is hardly porelbJs that ha will meet us.” "One good thing abent It is that our address is not yet settled upon, so wo can not give it to him." was Percy’s last ramark. Then tbe subject changed a little, although Armida was still the ono discussed. Mr. Wilcox loaned on the table, and with a pleasant smile on his face be looked across al the man seated oppo­ site to him. ... "Percy,” he said, “you are a good deal older than Armida, but tell me now, like a man. don't you love her?" Tbe question was so sudden that Per­ cy was non-pluosed. Ha blushed, glanced at his feet, and then up at bis employer, who ahohlcKftoro properly be called his friend; then be answered frankly: “Yes, air, 1 da." “Just what I have imagined for some time,” said tbe old man. Then be re­ marked inquiringly: "But you have nev­ er told her of it?” “No, I never have, and for the pres­ ent I do not intend to do so.” "For what reason?” “First and foremost, 1 am loo poor." “Thst is no reason at alt You have sacrificed your future to help me and 1 am responsible for your poverty, and in like manner 1 am morally responsibly for your future well-being and shall make it my business to sea that you get jour snare of tbe good things of this world. I have plenty and to spare and 1 guess when you want to marry Armida, you can get all the money you want for tbe asking." This was a long speech for Mr. Wil­ cox to make, but it was in good faith. “Yet." Percy replied, "th® probabili­ ties are that if you had not taken me out of San Francisco I should be still as poor as ever.” , "Nay, not so. Percy, you have ability and it would have been developed. Look at the way you have handled my affairs, for instance. Haven't I followed your advice in all my investments, and haven’t they paid well in nine cases c*t of ton?” “Still I was only doing my duty to you as your servant.'' "Percy Beaufort Level,” said the good-hearted millionaire, “I have often told you that I object to the word tenant being used and applied to yourself. It may 'go' over In England, but it don't go here, so please don't use it" Now Percy knew that when Mr. Wilcox addressed him by his full name tbe old gentleman was annoyed, so he felt be must do something to please him and bring him back to bis usual even temperament "It is kind of you to place such entire confidence in me, Mr. Wil­ cox," be said, "but even if I did accept your assistance I could not ask Armida to marry mo at present 1 have sworn to myself to follow up every trail I find until that vile Volasqucz meets his deserts and until we find him or proof of his death, I can not settle down. At any moment I might have to go off to a distant part of tbe country or abroad and under such .circumstances a wife would be a burtlen. Moreover, my thoughts ^re so intent upon the work of running her father’s murderer to earth, that in my abstractedness at times sho might think that 1 did not love ber.

Many prominent people In Dubuque and elsewhere who are now trotting along sedately In double harness and bringing up children in the way they should go were “Jlned" in holy wedlock by Squire Bob, and “a Fairplay wedding" Is a standard proverb through all tiiat section. Many of Squire Allison’s wed­ dings have resulted happily, and the burden of responsibility on his broad shoulders is probably no heavier than that of many who are In the marrying business In a loss informal way. Squire Allison's trim is a historic out­ fit.

His habit was to appear on the platform with his trousers turned up so that b»s auditors could see that de wore neither stockings nor drawers. He accounted for their absence by say­ ing : “This is what tariffs and mort­ gages brought me to.” At other times, it is said, he would take off his shoes to show that he hod no socks aud re­ mark that “Hungs didn't come to him in carriages."

HE lights of tho little church on the hillside shining invitingly in tho gloom, mado the semi­ circular grove behind it look dark shadowy on that Christmas Eve. The pines whis­ pered, and the spruce and fir trees nodded confidentially toward the lighted windows, for a chosen member of their family stood inside the church, the “ob­ served of all observers,” ready to .show­ er Ita Christmas fruitage presently upon tho expectant hearts and hands of the gathering. All Millville was out, even to blind Joe, who could lee! the Christmas glad­ ness even If he could not see It. and who was sure also of a goodly number of pros­ ecute. There were the youth and "small fry” of both sexes, the blacksmith, miller, grocer and-doctor, and, not least, the minister aud his bride of three month*, a - pretty little brown-eyed creature sitting in a front pew beside her husband, her radiant countenance crossed now aud tben by a shade of anxiety as she glanced down the aisle at the stern face of Jonss Hideaway. There he eat in tbe midst of the buzz and hum of half a dozen beehives, silent »ai;d unsmiling, with his fur coat folded across his knees, caring for nobody, aud nobody caring for him seemingly. “He’s Ilka a death's head at a feast, ’ the ddetor remarked to his wife. “Yea. I wonder what brought him ©nt? ’“He wants to save himself from petri­ faction, I suppose,” relumed the Doctor dryly. “It’s a shame he is so bard toward Prissy," said the lady warmly. “He might afford to forgive her before ;loom»dsy, I think. Of course she was foolish to go off and marry the of her father’s worst enemy, but thi r thing was starving for affection. ppoae.

A long wicker basket which bung low on tbo tall Christmas tree was the sub­ ject of much conuqent and conjecture. Very few -were aware of tho treasure with which It was freighted, or that It was watched stealthily through the half open door near tho desk by a pair of soft, dark, anxious eyes. A jolly-faced Santa Claus commenced to unload the tree. The din waxed louder as name after name was called. Blind Joe was heaped with presents. The minister's wife had a lap full, but a good share of her attention was bestowed upon that wicker basket, she being op­ posite to IL “Mr. Jonas Hideaway!" Everybody stared and wondered as Santa Claus drew tbo mysterious basket from tho bough gingerly. . “Why, It’s for Jonas!" was breathed In concert- all over the church. “It looks heavy. I’ll bet It's full of bricks.” Nat hazarded. . . “Bricks is all be deserves," assented Tim, oracularly. » “Mr. Jonas Hideaway!" Santa Claus called again with special emphasisThe owner of the name did not budge, whereupon Santa Claus marched down the aisle with the basnet and set It upon the coat folded across Jonas’ knees. With something between a gtowl and an exclamation be lifted the wicker cover. Was It the face of a lovely doll half bidden tn lace and lawn and pink rib­ bons that be looked down upon? The light was. not the brightest .in that cor­ ner, and there was a strange film over bis eyes, but surely it seemed to breathe, and its weight upon his knees was like flesh and bipod! Jonas sat helpless under the burden, dimly conscious that tbe hubbub around him was stll.cd sud­ denly. In the midst of his bewilderment, a pair of large dark eyes opened slowly. Jonas felt an unusual stir in the region of his heart Tho eyes were regarding him steadily with a curious little pucker of tho brows. After a few moment’s Inspection, two little hands were reached up to him, and three fingers closed tight­ ly around the thumb of the hand that steadied the basket “If she don’t look sweet enough to eat!" said Susie Baker, leaning oar his left arm. * } < “She's the dead imago of Prissy* Mien she was a ba ny, "declared motherly Mrs. Nesbit above hla shoulder. “She's got your nose. Squire, sure as watched the experiment. She was fol­ lowed by the minister's wife and others. “I owe this all to »ou,* she said, grate­ fully, to tho doll wife. “I knew he was good as gold, away down," returned the little lady, softy. How the glad Christmas bolls rang ia the air around Jonas' did homestead that night! How peacefully the angels of good-will brooded over the slumber of the inmates! Perhaps everybody has beard of “bran ple,"butif there is somebody who hasn't, the description may not come amiss. A tub Is to be used for the dish, the site to depend on tho probable number of the gifts, and clean bran for the lin­ ing and the crust. In other words, the tub may be half filled with the bran, and then the presents neady covered with brown paper, tied and labeled, placed in tho bran, here, there, and everywhere, so aS to require as much hunting for hidden treasure as possible, and finally a covering of bran put over tbo whole. Those who are to be served with this very substantial sort of a Christmas pie surround it in a circle, each in turn drawing out a bundle from the all-envel­ oping bran. If tho drawer of a prize finds hla own name written on tbo bun­ dle, he keeps it, but If it is the name of some other member of the party, he re­ turns It to the pie, and waits until his turn to draw comes round again. A good deal of amusement may be added If an appropriate motto or prov­ erb be written on each bundle; for in­ stance, with an embroidered needle-book, the words, -A stitch In time saves nine;" with a calendar, “Take time by the fore­ lock," and so on.
