William 0 . McDowell arrived here late Saturday afternoon a n d left on a midnight train for New York after a short conference with Mr. Powderly. I t w a s decided then t o make another effort for a conference wath Gould. Mr. McDowell reached New York early Tuesday morning, and immediately began negotiations for a conference. Cyrus W. Field acted a s a med i a t o r i n t h e n e g o t i a t i o n s between Mc- Dowell a n d Gould. These n e g o t i a t i o n s failed, b a t Mr. Gould's statement on Mond a y t h a t n o negotiations were pending was n o t strictly true. Mr. Powderly finished his letter t o Mr. Gould Sunday afternoon and mailed it t o Mr. McDowell t h a t night, with instructions t o deliver it t o Mr. Gould in the event of the failure of the pending negotiations. T h e letter was placed in Mr. Gould's hands, •and he was given till live o'clock t o m a k e a reply. No word was received from Mr. Godld by Mr. Powderly a t t h a t hour, however, and the Utter is now given t o t h e p u b l i c Thte is i t s text: "SOKANTON, Pa., April 11, 1886, 3 a. m . ~ Jay Gould, Esq., President Jfutouri Pacific Jtaiiroad—Dear Sir: The events of the last forty-eight hours must have demonstrated to y o u the absolute necessity of bringing this terrible struggle in the Southwest to a speedy termination. Y o u have the power, tee authority and the means to bring the strike to an end. I have done every t h i n g to end the strife. The gentlemen associated with me on the general e x e c u t i v e board of the Knights of Labor have done the same. E v e r y t h i n g consistent with honor and manhood has been dune i n the interest of peace. N o false notions of pride or dignity n a v e s w a y e d us in o u r dealings w i t h y o u or t>he g e n t l e m e n associated w i t h you. "In the conference with y o u on Sunday* March 28, I understood y o u to m e a n that arbitration would be agreed to. The o n l y method of arbitration that was discussed w a s in line with t h a t suggested in t h e letter which I sent to y o u i n the n a m e of our board on , / t h e d a y previous, and there , w a s nothing particular agreed upon, as y o u well know. Y O B said that in arbitrating the matter the d a m a g e s Sustained by the c o m p a n y during the strike onght to receive consideration. I said *a you that it would n o t be the part of wisdom t o bring that question up in the settlement of the strike. When I called upon y o u again that evening y o u had prepared, asJthe result of your understanding of t h e morning's interview, a letter which y o u intended t o g i v e to me. That letter included a teleg r a m to be sent t o Mr. Hoxie, and in that telegram you said that the damages sustained by the company would bo a proper subject, for the arbitration board to discuss. The latter part of the letter or telegram ou agreed t o strike off, after we ad talked the matter over for some t i m e , and I left y o u as y o u were about t o g o to y o u r room to rewrite the letter which y o u afterward placed in the hands of Mr. McDowell to be g i v e n t o me, for I had t o leave a t that time in order to keep an appointment at the hotel where I stopped. Tne statement which you .have gince then made, to the effect that y o u had prepared that letter before I called, is n o t quite correct, or, if y o u did have it prepared, y o u changed it after y o u talked the matter over. This, I believe, you will admit to be trap. "At the conference held between the members of our e x e c u t i v e board a u d the directors of the Missouri Pacific Company, a t 195 Broadway, on March 30, y o u said t o me that you understand me to s a y that t h e men along your lines would be ordered , back to work a t once, they having violated ' the rules of our organization. I then reiterated t h e statement which I made to jrou, and n o w repeat it: T h e m e n a l o n g th© Lines of your railways can be ordered back t o f o r k , b u t if .they are given to u n d e r s t a m that thoy are deserted, t h a t w e <do n o t take a n y interest in them, it will n o t in a n y w a y mend matters; on the contrary, it will make things worse. There . are, all along the roads out there, a fere at m a n y m e n w h o have no regard for otganlzatioH or law—men pf hardy spirit, energy and dariag. Such m e n a s h a v e left the East a n d have taken . « p their homes in a wild country •. such as that is will not submit a s quietly . a s the m e n they have left in the East; they .are a p t t o do rasher things than they would kbe elsewhere, and I have n o doubt that w e h a v e some of them in our order; in fact, m y experience with the m e n of that v a s t section leads me to think that the m e n on b o t h aides o u t there are more daredevilish than they are in the East. Even the business men of that conntry are of that stamp of character.' " Both y o u and Mr. Hopkins heard me m a k e that statement, and 1 believe the latter agreed that that w a s his experience also. The danger of the strike spreading •was also discussed, and I said to y o u that i t would not spread; that an effort h a d ibeen made t o h a v e the m e n of the Union Pacific take u p a. part of it, b a t that t h e K n i g h t s of Labor on that road had a standing Agreement with the management of the road that there w a s to be7 no trouble or strike until the last effort t o effect a settlem e n t h a d failed, a n d p o t then until the •oourtof last resort had been reached. _ "This I (believe coveys the chief points of discussion. I did n o t hear either y o u or Mr. Hopkins s a y that the pifesent troubles a l o n g y o u r road would n o t be arbitrated w i t h the m e n who- were n o t at work. I t w a s m y firm belief when I left y o u that n i g h t t h a t y o u m e a n t to have the entire aff a i r submitted t o arbitration at the first jpomible moment. That belief is shared in b y Mr. McDowell, w h o was present during the entire/interview.

" 'I would Hk» to see ft done' cpjae's w i t h .as great a force from the m a j M n a u t h o r i t y , a i *I must have it done.' That was the idea t h a t I entertained when I left your house •that n i g h t I abo^explained to y o u at y o u r house that night that the men w h o had enitered uppfi^fhe strike had not violated a n y • l a w o > - t h e order in so doing; that while 1 thought it would h e r e been better if they had laid their grto wfcnces before the general executivebo a r d before striking, y e t thgre w a s nothing i n our l a w s to c o m m a n d t h e m to do so. " I furthermore explained t o y o n t h a t the spirit of our organization w a s opposed to strikes, and t h a t w a s the reascn w a y o u r Smeral convention never enacted a n y parcular legislation for the g o v e r n m e n t of them. I also said t h a t t h e occasion had never before called for a n y interference from the general officers, but that this strike would show t h e necessity for the passage at o u r n e x t convention of laws that would place the subject of strikes under the control of the general e x e c u t i v e board of the order. 4 , You can settle this strike. Its longer continuance rests w i t h you, and y o u alone. Every act of violence, every drop of blood that m a y be shed from this time forth, must be laid a t y o u r door. The K n i g h t s of Labor were n o t founded to promote or shield wrong-doing, a u d t o d a y t h e order of the Knights of Labor stands between y o u r property a n d ruin. W e are willing to absolve the m e n along your r a i l w a y s from their allegiance t o our order. We leave that to themselves. We will n o t allow a n y claims which the order w a y h a v e qu them to stand between them a n d their restoration t o their former positions.

We will surrender our •rights to claim these m e n as members if they wish, but w e will n o t surrender o u rights to see t h e affair thoroughly investig a t e d ' Y o u have said that the order of K n i g h t s of Labor was1 a conspiracy, a secret menace, etc. 1 am willing, as the ohief officer, to l a y every thing connected with our order,* bare to the world if y o u will, on the other hand, lay open t o the public the means and methods whereby y o u have piled Jap the wealth which y o u control, and ajllow the tribunal of public opinion to pasx in judgment on the t w o and s a y which is the conspiracy. Do y o u accept ^he challenge! Y o u have instructed youivteeral adviser to proceed against every m a n connected with the Knights of Labor for the damages sustained since the strike began. Two weeks ago I s a i d : Do not do this. To-day I fcay: Begin at ouee; lay claims for damages in every coilrt within whose jurisdiction a knight exists. Proceed a t once, and in every State where y o u c a n recover damages d o so it" the law will sustain you in it. Let the m a j e s t y of the l a w be vindicated; it is just and right that i t should be so. We are willing to face y o u before the law, and we will nght y o u with n o other weapons. For every violation of the l a w of S t a t e or Nation w e will enter suit against you, and in this crusade against y o u do not understand that we m e a n to persecute.. Ou the contrary, we wish to see the law vindicated. If you nave at all times obeyed the l a w in your dealings, in the methods by which y o u have acquired your immense fortune, then it is time that the m a n v offenses with which y o u are charged should be refuted. Y o u have remained silent under m a n y a damaging charge of injuring the State. We will b e your avengers. If you have been wronged we will let it be known to the world through the medium of the courts of justice. A n d let me s a y right here t h a t no money will buy a verdict at the hands of these courts. "There are psople s a y i n g that this struggle is the beginning of the war between capital and labor. That statement is false. This, certainly means war; but it is a w a r between legitimate capital, honest enterprise, and honest labor on the one hand, and illegitimate on the other hand. This is a war in which we court the fullest investigation of o u r acts. Do y o u dare to do the same? This battle of the people a g a i n s t ' m o n o p o l y m a y as well bo fought out now as ten years from now, and w h a t Meld so eminently proper in which to flgbt it out as before the Courtsi Let ijs k n o w whether laws were made to be obeyed or not, and if they--were n o t so framed then the people inust have laws that will be obeyed. No man, whether he be rich or whether he be the poorest of the poor, shall in future shirk the responsibility of his acts and shield himself behind the courts. It was to see that the laws were obeyed that the order of the Knights of Labor w a s founded, and if the d a y has come t o mako the trial, so let it be. "You have been warned that your life is in danger. P a y n o attention to such talk; no man who has the interest bf his conntry at heart would harm a hair of your head. B u t the system which reaches out on all sides, gathering in the millions of dollars of treasure and keeping them out of the legitimate channels of trade and commerce, must die, a n d tbe m e n whoso m o n e y is invested in the enterprise which stock gambling has throttled must m a k e common cause with those w h o have been denied the right t o earn enough t o provide tbe merest necessities of life for home and family. When I s a y t o y o u that w e will meet "you in the courts I do not^peak rashl y or ill-art vised ly. I have taifen counsel from the best legal minds of the United States.

April 11, 18$6, at t h e s a m e time and b y the same agency t h a t I received y o u r foregoing letter of instructions t o Mr. McDowell. The animus and purpose of y o u r letter to me can n o t be fully understood w i t h o u t knowing t h e content* of that one. I w a s notified a t t h e same time t h a t I must a n s w e r y o u r letter b y five o'clock to-day. a n d f w a s graciously g i v e n until that hour t o respond. Y o u r letter t o me embraces t w o subjects, o n e relating to m e personally, and: the other conceruiug the relation or t a e K a i g b t s - o f Labor to a railroad comp a n y of which I a m president and in some degree the representative of its pubiio and priyate duties. I shall refer t o the first subject very briefly. The circumstances above given under which your1 letter was delivered, a s well a s its tenor and s p i r i t place the purpose i n writing it b e y o n d a n y fair d o u b t I t would seem to be a n official declaration that t h e Knight* of Labor had determined t o pursue me personally unless the Missouri Pacific Company should yield t o its d e m a n d s in what YOU call the strike o n that road. "In answer t o the personal threats I beg to s a y that I a m y e t a free A m e r i c a n citizen. I a m past forty-nine years of age, w a s bora a t Roxbury, Delaware County, in this State. I b e g a n life in a l o w l y w a y , a n d b y industry, temperance and attention t o m y o w n business h a v e been successful, perhaps, bevond the measure ofy m y deserts, ft, a s y o u say> I a m n o w to bo destroyed by the K n i g h t s of Labor unless I will sink m y manhood, so be i t Fortunately I have retained m y early habits of industry, m y friends, neighbors a n d business associates k n o w me well, and I a m quite content to leave m y personal record ill their hands. If a n y of t h e m have aught to complain of I will be only too * glad to submit t o a n y arbitration. If such parties, or a n y of them, wish to appoint the K n i g h t s of Labor or y o u as their attorney, such' a p p o i n t m e n t is quite agreeable to me, b u t until such an election is made it will naturally occur to y o u t h a t a n y interference on your part in m y persona} affairs is, t o say the ksast, quite gratuitous. Since I was nineteen years of a g e I have been in the habit of e m p l o y i n g in m y various enterprises, large ^numbers of persons, probably at times as high as 50,000, distributing ¢:3,000,000 or ¢4,000,000 p e r mouth to different pay-rolls. It would seem a little strange .that during all t h e s j years the difficulty with the Knights of Labor should be ray first A n y a t t e m p t t o connect m o personally with the late strike on the Southwestern roads, or a n y responsibility therefor is eqaally gratuitous, as y o u well know. It is true I a m the president of t h e Missouri Pacific, but when this strike occurred I w a s far a w a y o n the ocean r*id beyond the reach of the telegraph. I w e n t a w a y r e l y i n g o n y o u r promise made to me last August t h a t there should be no strike on that road, a n d that if a n y difficulties should arise y o u would come frankly t o me with them. Mr. Hopkins, the vice-president of this company, who w a s present and c o g n i z a n t of this a r r a n g e m e n t with you, in niy a b s e n c e sent y o u promptly, when the present sCrike broke out, the following telegrams: [Here follows a nunibar of t e l e g r a m s between Messrs. Hopkins, Hoxie arid Powderly, referring to the strike, its primary causes, the-request for arbitration, a n d the decision of Mr. Gould that the matter, havi n g been placed by the board of directors of the road in the h a n d s of\Mr. Hoxie, all negotiations for settlement inust be made with him. 1 Mr. Gould then continues: "Mr. Hoxie has stood ready to receive a n y andk all persons in the actual employ of the c o m p a n y , an a committee or otherwise, and confer upon or arbitrate a n y master of difference or c o m p l a i n t either between the c o m p a n y and its late employes, and, for that matter, between the c o m p a n y a n d a n y b o d y else. No such c o m m i t t e e or individual e m - ploye has, so far as known to me, ever made a n y such application. This c o m p a n y still stands ready to make good i n the fulle s t s e n s e its agreement as expressly s e t forth. "In the face of all this v o u notify me t h a t unless b y five o'clock I personally c o n s e n t to do something—precisely what, I d o n o t see—then personal consequences of a sort v a g u e l y expressed, b u t n o t hard to understand, will, a t the hand'of y o u r order, be visited upon me. Let me again remind y o u t h a t it is an American citizen w h o m y o u a n d y o u r order thus propose t o destroy. The contest is not between your order and m e , but between y o u r order and the laws of the land. Y o u r order h a s a l r e a d y defied these l a w s in p r e v e n t i n g by violence this c o m p a n y from operating its r o a d Y o u held t h e n that this c o m p a n y should not operate its road under conditions prescribed by y o u . Y o u n o w declare, in effect that I hold m y individual property a n d rights not a s other m e n hold theirs, DUt o n l y a t the peril of your letting loose irrevocably after five o'clock your order upon me. If this is true of this c o m p a n y and of m e it is true of all men and companies. If so, y o n a n d y o u r secret order are the law, a n d an American citizen is such o n l y in name. Already, for weolcs, your order has, in y o u r attack- upon this c o m p a n y , n o t hesitated to disable it b y violence" from rendering its d u t y t o t h e public and from g i v i n g work and p a y i n g wages to m e n a t least three times your o w n number, who, working as t h e y were b y y o u r side, were a t least deserving of y o u r s y m p a t h y . "Having pushed this violence b e y o n d e v e n tbe greatoforbearance of the public, a n d fo«nd-4n -this direction cause to hesitate, y o u n o w turnflupon me, and propose t h a t the wrongs y o u nave hitherto inflicted o n tbe public shall n o w culminate in an attack upon an individual. In this, as I h a v e said, the real issue is b e t w e e n y o u and t h e laws of the land. It m a y be, before y o u are through, those l a w s will efficiently advise y o u that even I, a s an individual citizen, a m n o t b e y o n d their care.

All of t h a t portion of t h e village of S t . Cloud northwest of the bridge presents a scene of a l m o s t t o t a l obliteration. Whore were the scenes of uctive business, to-day horror and t o t a l destruction reign supreme. T h e line passenger a n d freight d e p o t of the Northern Pacific rnilroad lies piled up, a huge m a s s of ground-up lumber. The school house w a s rent into the finest, pieces imaginable b y the destroyer, and, like nil the buildings in t h e line of t h e s t o r m , i s f;ir beyond repair. F o r t u n a t e l y school had been udjourued for vucation last Friday, a n d no o n e w a s in t h e building a t the time. The court-lMAUso is a conglomeration of building material fully ten fe,et deep, which is being ra»p'dly cleared a w a y by the workmen.

T h e buildings did n o t take fire, or t h e loss of life a n d the d a m a g e t o property would h a v e been much greater. Sauk Rapidd is a sickening sight. T h e s t o r m lirst struck J. A.

The black m a s s of earth, water and debris next t o o k thirteen freight curs from the track. All t h a t remains of five of them is a pile of naked trucks lying some distance, a w a y .

Thl« impoBlnjr Establishment was designed and erected t o aocommodate the large number of invalids who visit Buffalo from every State and Territory, as well as froin many foreign lands, that they may avail themselves of the professional servioee of the stall of skilled specialists in medicine and surgery that compose tho Faculty of this wideiy-oelebrated institution* N O T ALWAYS NECESSARY TO S E E P A T I E N T S . By our original system of diagnosis, we can treat many chronic diseases just as successfully without as with a personal consultation. While we are always glad to see our patients, and become acquainted with them, show them our institutions, and familiarize them with our system of treatment, yet we have not seen one person in five hundred whom we have cured. The perfect accuracy with which scientists are enabled to deduce the most minute particulars in their several departments, appears almost miraculous, if we view it in the light of the early ages. Take, for example, the electro-magnetic telegraph, the greatest invention of the age. Is it not a marvelous degree of accuracy which enables an operator to exactly locate a fracture in a submarine cable nearly three thousand miles long ? Our venerable ** clerk of the weather" has become so thoroughly familiar with the most wayward elements of nature that he can accurately predict their movements. H e c a n Bit in Washington and foretell what the weather will be in Florida or New York as well as if several hundred miles did not intervene between him and the places named. And so in all departments of modern science, what is required is tbe knowledge of certain • tignft. From these scientists deduce accurate conulBNS DF elusions regardless of distance. So, also, in ITU cal scionce, diseases have ccptain unmistakable signs, or symptoms, and by reason of thls-fact, we have been enabled to originate and^perfect a system of determining, with the greatest accuracy, the nature of chronic diseases, without* seeing and personally examining our patients. In recognizing diseases without m personal examination of the patient, we elaira to possess no miraculous powers. We obtain our knowledge of the patient's disease by the practical application, to the practice of nH'd> cine, of well-established principles of modern science. And it is to the accuracy with which this system has endowed 11s that we owe our almost world-wide reputation of skillfjuhy treating lingering or chronic affections. This system or practice, and the marvelous success which oas been attained through it, demonstrate the fact that diseases display certain phenomena, which, being subjected to scient+flc analysis, furnish abundant and unmistakable data, to guide the Judgment of the skillful practitioner aright in determining the nature ssT disensed- conditions. The most ample resources for treating UngerrfTg or chronic diseases, and tho greatest skill, are thus pTararwithin the easy reach of every invalid. However distant he^ofshe may reside from the physicians making the treatmentj& f'Buch affections a specialty.

Iuunr.1 and cures effected in thousands of cases which had been pronounced beyond hope. These diseases are readily diagnosticated, or determined, by chemical analysis of tho urine, without a personal examination of patients, w h o c a n * t h e r e f o r e , g e n e r a l l y be s u c c e s s f u l l y t r e a t e d a t t h e i r h o m e s . The study and practice of chemical analysis and microscopical examination of the urine in our consideration of cases, with reference to correct diagnosis, in which our institution long ago became famous, has naturally led to a very extensive practice In diseases of the urinary organs. Probably no other Institution in the world has been so largely patronizixi by suffers from this class of maladies as tho old and world-famed World's Dispensary and Invalids' Hotel. Our specialists havo acquired, through a vast and varied experience, great expertness in determining the exact nature of each case, and, hence, have been successful in nicely adapting their remedies for tho cure of each individual case. I _ These delicate diseases should be carefully treated RallTinN by a specialist thoroughly familiar with them, and www n u n . w n o jg competent to ascertain the exact condition mmm^i^^tm^ jyjd stage of advancement which the disease has made (which can only bo ascertained by a careful chemical and microscopical examination of tho urine), for medicines which are curative In one stage or condition are known to do po*i*ie« injury in others. Wc have never, therefore, attempted to put up anything for general sale through druggists, recommending to cure these diseases, although possessing very superior remedies, knowing full well from an extensive experience that the only safe and successful course is to carefully determine the disease and its progress in each case by a chemical and microscopical examination of the urine, and then adapt our medicines to tho exact stage of the disease and condition of our patient. To this wise course of action we attribute the marvelous success attained by our specialists in that important and extensive Department of our institutions devoted exclusively to tho treatment of diseases of the kidneys and bladder. The treatment of diseases of the urinary organs having constituted a leading branch of our practice at the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, and, being in constant receipt of numerous inquiries for a complete work on tho nature and curability of these maladies, written in astylfrto be easily understood, we tan lished a large Illustrated Treatise on these diseases, which wul be sent to any address on receipt of ton cents in postage stamps.

To those acquainted with our institutkms, it is hardly necessary to say that the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institwte, with the branch establishment located at No. 3 New Oxford Street, London, England, have, for many years, enjoyed the distinction of being the most largely patronized and widely celebrated institutions h» the world for the treatment and cure of those affections which arise from youthful indiscretions and pernicious, solitary practices We, many years ago, established a special Department for the treatment of these diseases, under the management of soma* of the. most skillful physicians and surgeons on our Staff, in order that all who apply to us might receive all the advantages ef a full Council of the most experienced specialists. We offer no apology for devoting so much attention to this neglected class of diseases, behoving no condition of humanity is too wretched t o merit the sympathy and best service* of the noble profession to which w o belong. Many who suffer from these terrible diseases contract them Innocently. Why any medical man, intent on doing good and alleviating suffering, should shun such cases, we cannot imagine. Why any one should consider it otherwise than most honorable to cure the worst cases of these diseases, we cannot understand: and yet of all the other maladies which afflict mankind there is probably none about which physicians in general practice know so little. ^ We shall, therefore, continue, as heretofore, to treat with our best consideration, sympathy, and skill, all applicants who are suffering from any of these delicate diseases.

EDITOR DISPATCH:—Permit me briefly to call attention to a matter vitally affecting the future of our village. Notices have been posted for a special school meeting on Wednesday evening next to vote on the proposi lion, of handing the .school district in the sum of six thousand dollars for building and furnishing a new school house. As to the need of such a building, I need waste no time in urging that, for all must admit it. But objections will be urged against the project; 1st, as to the amount of bonds; 2d, as to location; 3d, that the time is « o t propitious. ' As to the first objaction, 1 would urgt» that th'at the sum named in the notice seemed to meet the approval of the conservative majority!of tax-payers in the village. While there are a few *vho would advocate bonding the district to a burdeusome extent to erect a building tor "ornament,1' and perhaps a somewhat larger number who would favor the erection of a. building entirely inadequate to tne wants of the district, yet I cannot believe that any one of our intelligent citizens will after candid consideration deliberately vote to defeat so important a project on account of the difference tfcat could .be reasonably made one way or the • other from the sum named. , As to location the present proposir ;'tion contemplates no change except to •procure additional ground adjoining, which it is known can be had at very moderade o s t . It is evident/from past experience that any effort to change the site would envolve.a profitless controversy. Such a change, too, though it might present some advantages, is certainly not essential. Now as to the third objection. We all know with what a soothing charm the idea of procrastination appaals to us when we have an/unwelcome duty to perform—ar*d to assume a burden of taxation (be it for what purpose it may) seems seldom otherwise than unwelcome. But procrastination, with all its seductive charms, is a deceiver; for it is not only the ''thief of time," a< the old acjage calls it, but is often the thief of opportunity as well. In several ways it might prove such in the present instance. Let us see. Never during the past quarter of a centur/ could school district bonds have been funded at so low a raU of interest as no/W.

John Okemos, a big Indian and [about the last of his tribo in this section, sought a sleeping berth in the police station on Monday night.

Rose of rftockbrid^e informed us sometime ago, that in doghood he was quite intimate with John Okemos they being boys together. He also informed us that when this old Indian family were once traveling along the trial road, a sister of John and daughter of the old chief, died on what is known as Jesse Rose's corner in Lyndon, and the family buried her at a spot between the house and where the new barn now stands-^hiyears after it was their custonrto camp near the spot. SPRING FOR 25 years to come will oocur another opportunity so favorable? Building material and labor are both as low in price as we can ever expect to .see them. So far as to economy then, the time is_opportuner -Now, will a new school house do our village any good? I hardly think we will hear anybody BRIGHTON SAYINGSFrom tfae Citizens. Ten pupils who attended our union school last fall and winter, have riceived certificates from the county board of examiners and all but one or two will teach in the country during the spring and.iall. It the pupils attend regularly and work faithfully and the teachers do their, part, there is no reasen why our school should not stand equal to any in the county. Without laying any claim to moral or religilou* principles, but sticking to the old motto,— not very philanthropic —"every min for himself and the devil take the hindmost," we will venture to lay down this principle; that any person having a family dependent upon what he earns from day to day, who will squander for drink, c>r risk at a game of chance what should pu'rchas for his wife and children the necessitie and comforts of life, is almost a fool; in fact, he is a little off. answer "no" to this question.

Thus far, however, it has only been in the shape of private enterprise. ' Shall not the citizens ot Pinckney in general show that they too are in favor of the "on ward movement?11 May we not hope to see every tax-payer in the district show by his vote on Weduesday evening next that he is willing-to do something for the 200 children of the village who need a pleasant and healthful school home just as much as they need a pleasant parental home?

Ii is to cater to the same kind of feeling that newspapers describe how many lumps of sugar a condemned murderer took in his coffee on the morning of his hanging The germtheory, too, has given a great impetus x to popular medicine. The germ appeals to the average mind: it is sometning tangible; it may be hunted down, captured, colored and looked atNthrougli a microscope, and then, in all its varieties, it can be held directly responsible for so much damage. There is scarcely a farmer in the country who has not^ad of the germ theory. A cowboy in Arizona was shot dead in the saddte recently^ by a comrade for the insult implied by calling ^,him a "microbe!" \ Still, a great deal of this popular medical talk and instruction is the outcome of an earnest desire to learn to alleviate the growing evils of heredity and environment, especially in overcrowded cities. The importance of a universal knowledge of, and attention to, the laws of physiology and hygieai is becoming more and more Appreciated, and the elements of these subjects are taught in the public and private schools.— Dr. W. 0.

A gentleman recently established in business in Paris, and formerly an om- - cer in the United^States arm^ during the civil war, told me the following story: He was with his regiment on duty in (I think) Tennessee, and was informed one day that tie newly-appointed commiinder of that division of the army was to aYrTve-that day, and Would take possession of his command the next morning. Early on the followi n g morning the officer chanced to be standing oh the bank of a stream near where the forces were encamped, when he saw on the other side of the water a •andy-bearded man on horseback, with a_d|^r1n;tweejr5t5n deavoring to force his horse to cross a narrow wooden bridge tha>was thrown across the stream. The bridge had no railings, and the^fonks were slippery with frost, sa that the passage presented a certain amount of danger. The officer called to the stranger not to cross.

It makeB but little difference now whether the men of the Southwest acted wisely or n o t Let us pass that p a r t of the affair over, for it, too, h*e passed into history. "The general executive board of the order attempted to settle the trouble and restore harmony. Agreements were made with them by J a y Gould, but when the board reached S t Louis Mr. Hoxie would not treat with them.

They have been idle for nearly two montbsHPbey have had a most tryimc ordeal to go through, and a r e in need of funds. It requires no eloquence or rhetor.c to plead the cause of these suffering people. They require aid, aud it becomes our d u t y to extend t h a t aid as quickly as it is possible for us to do so. b«nd every dollar you can spare to the general secretary and treasurer, who will a t once forward it to the men at St. Louis for distribution.

Act at once. Another appeal may be sent to you, and we ask of you to prepare for it now. We must bo judged by our actions in this matter. Do not pass resolutions condemni n g capital, for we are not fighting capital. Do not antagonize the contest we have before us. Let us make a friend of every man who has suffered through monopoly.

'' In conclusion, let ns agaiu ask t h a t you send a t once every dollar you can at present raise to uphold the men who are now out along the lines of the Southwest system of Gould's railways.

ST.

Tho resolutions provided for t h e appointment of a committee of nine citizens of St. Louis, three from the resident directors of the railways, three from theresident labor interests, present or recent employee of the railroads, t o be selected by the unemployed, and three discreet and recognised representatives of the mercantile^ manufacturing %fid professional elements of the city, in nowise connected or interested with tho railway or labor organization, who shall bo authorized by their respective interests t o meet, confer and arrange, with binding effect, the exintiikg troubles. The reason given for the desirability of such a committee was t h a t thetrade and commerce of the city of St. Louis and the inter-State commerce-1 through St. Louis to and from all of t h e t r a d e points of the Missouri Pacific and pi the St. Louis, Iron Mountain cfe Southern railway has been for ovor u, month and »• still obstructed, with no immediate sign. of said roudu complying with, or being ablojjto comply with, their duty t o the public as common carrierB.

This being the «iae the need of a resumption of traffic a m not be urged as a reason for the appointment of the committee. The action of such a committeewould necessarily relate entirely t o themethods by which the ex-tvnployes m i g h t bo'restored t o the places they voluntarily abandoned; Mr. Hoxie regrets that, after the railway company has tailored earnestly a n d with success t o bring a b o u t a resumption of traffic, there-should be sent broadcast over the land by the citizens taking p a r t >n,sthe meeting of the 13th inst. a statement regarding the obstruction of traffic over twoof the principal roads entering t h e city which he is satisfied the great body of t h e business men would decline t o indorse.

COMJMBUS, 0 . , April 10.—Tho legislative committeo appointed to investigate charges of bribery in electing Senator Payne in J a n u a r y . 1884. reported last evening. The majority report, eigncd by three Republicans, is long, and is accompanied by 800 pages of evidence, the imp o r t a n t points of which aje' cited to show t h a t while none of t h o ' m e m b e r s of the present General Assembly have been conclusively impeached, a case has been made a s t o the corjtipt methods, and the testimony fulhvjUBtilies t h a t it bo certified a t once to>he United States Senate for action by ^tfiat body in considering Senator Payne's right t o his seat. -^ The majority report is somewhat sensational and h n s caused a great stir, especially the evidence of Hale, who told of entering J .

H u n t i n g t o n has been regarded as the purser of the alleged Payne fund. The minority report, signed by two Democratic members, is devoted to arguments t o impeach the most d a m a g i n g witnesses; and, while a d m i t t i n g t h a t there have been lief of sufferers by the overflow of rivers in Alabama, but no action was taken thereon. rule measure was proposed. By the conditions of tho measures purchase would be made through the issues of £180,000.000 sterling already authorized, for which three per c e n t stock would be issued, at its par value. These new Irish consols might,' with the consent of the treasury, be , communicated for stock of lower denominations. If, however, it was found inexpedient to issue the proposed stock forthwith, scrip of equal value could be issued. The object o r purpose of the act was to give to landlords an opinion to- sell o u t The authority of the State acting between peasant and landlord would purchase the land and put the peasant in possession a s an absolute proprietor subject only to the rent charge until the final payment of t h e purchase money had been made. The State would also have the power to decidewhether the expropriation of landlordsshould or should not be compulsory. The land commission would be empowered to refuse applications. ~ The basis of prices would depend upen the rental for a fixed period. Twenty years' rental would be a nominal purchase; in exceptional cases twenty-two years' rental would make* a purchase. Applications for sale would n o t be received after March 1, 1890. T e a million pounds of the stock would be issued - d u r i n g 1887, £20,000,000 in 1883, and £20,000,- 000 in 1889. ^ ' Tho charge upon the Irish e x c h e q u e r would be £2,000,000 a year, to meet which it would be able to levy for rents amounting, to £2,500,000 a year, and this sum would be the first charge on the rents and taxes raised by the Irish government Adding to this the Imperial contribution, t h e B U , m u Paid to England by Ireland, wofuld be £6,242 000 a year, secured on a revenue amounting t o £10,850,000» no portion of which would be ap»<>i p j f t d t o a n y purpose until £6,000,000 w a a W paid into the English exchequer.

MR. GRAY-WHITE. H o w H e a t L a s t F a d e d O u t of t h e P i o t u r e . It was neither prying-cliriosity nor an eve for silver forks that drew hini BO near the wintfow. He was a homeless raanrfndeed, but not a vagabond, business had brought him to Pillowville, and after eating supper at the tavern he had wandered about the drowsy streets of the town, until, through the window of a low-set, modest dwelling, he caught a glimpse of -a group around a table. At the table sat a pretty girl, who was evidently affording excellent entertainment to an elderly woman, an old man, and a gawk of a boy. Although the gentleman without could not hear the words she spoke, he could well see her bright eye and the smiles she brought to the faces of those who listened to her with fond eagerness. She was telling a story, gesticulating in a graceful fashion, and turning her head from side to side like a bira. The old man, who iradra flowing white beard, leaned toward her, putting his opened hand behind his ear so that he should not lose a syllable of her sprightly talk, and the gentleman outside stepped on t.hn porch t.h» better to see the girl's winsome face. The ^ gawk of a boy began to grin, displaying large teeth stranded on a reef of red gum; the old man lay back in his arm chair in exquisite delight, and the the elderly woman laughed so that her ample bosom shook.* She was very fat, and she pressed her hand to her side as though it ached from too much mirth. Suddenly she rose, and before the gentleman on the porch could beat a retreat she had opened the door. " I thought I heard somebody here,1 ' she said with great good humor. " T h e bell is a little out of kilter, and it don't ring first rate.

I t was plainly furnished, fctit the red-table-cover, the rockingainij. with oushions on the seats, the e of a comfortable cat gave it a omciikc aspect. The pretty girl at the stranger curiously, the fWHt of a boy stared, and the old man p u t on a pair of spectacles.

And then the old m a n chuckled: " T a i n t as good wearing a color as Brown. Grays will fade. I was in the *<!ry-goods line myself. "Well, here is Mrs. Brown and our son Henry—named. ; f6f~h!91 uncle—ltnd~our niece, Miss Hattie Brown."

The guest assured her that be was not hungry; he had just supped at the tavern. "So you knew Henry," said old Mr. Brown, reflectively. " Out West, I guess. Leadvillei likely. Did ydu ever have any thing to do with the Maria m i n e ? " Mr. Gray's face brightened^ then clouded over. " I did, indeed," he answered. "And lost something, I'll bet a cooky," cried Mr. Brown, in glee. "Henry lost every cent he had, and it was the death of him, too. He didn't owe you any t h i n ? ? " he added, with an anxious pucker of his wrinkled face. "Oh, not a penny—not a penny." "And you hadn't heafn he was d e a d , " the old man continued. "He's been dead—lemme see—it must be nigh onto four year." "Four years next m o n t h , " put in the girl softly. She was helping her aunt to clear the table, and the stranger's eyes followed her trim figure as it flitted to and from a cupboard. "Did you have any thing in particular to say to poor Henry?" Mrs. Brown asked, pausing with a salt cellar in one hand, a vinegar cruet in the other. v "No, I happened to be here, and I thought I w o u l d look .him up. I l i a d s rattier lost sight of him." " W e have all lost sight of him," said the old man, solemnly, "but, 1 guess I'll see him afore long. I am 'most eighty, sir." "Now, pa,don'tyou begin such talk," broke in his wife. - - H e shook his headr^- " I am just sitting here waiting for death, Elizabeth, and there is no^.use trying to git around it.

Mr. Gray scorned at a loss for words. The young girl drew nearer to him and said: " I had not seen my father for a year before he died, and he died away from home. Tell me something about him." A flush of shame flamed up in the gentleman's face as ho looked into her beseeching eyt's. " I don't know what to tell you." he said, gently. "Henrv was alwavs unlnckv." Mr. Brown remarked. "First he invented a patent tack hammer, and then he was a book ag^ent for a spell—You a book a^ent?" he asked, suddenly turning to his guest. "J am a lawyer." "Oh, a lawyer." Mr. Brown stroked his beard. ''Well, Henry wa'n't a lawyer, but he was pretty much every thing else. ' T w a ' n ' t no use, though. H e was the youngest and smartest of us all—there was six of us boys—and he just went ahead, losing money the cheerfulest of anybody I ever see. Soon as he got any he got rid of it right of. He was a lovable fellow, had a friend on every corner,but too confiding. When he hadn't any thing else to do, he'd indorse; it gave him pleasure to go on paper. Then at one time he re'lly was quite rich"—here the old man rose in sudden wrath—"and he went and lent four thousand dollars to the meanest scamp on the faceo' the earth, and he "didn't bother about security, either.

The old man sank back in his chair. "Then you know a darned scoundrel," he muttered. His wife looked at him, reproachfull}', which roused his ire. "Yes, sir, a darned scoundrel," he shouted. "He rich, rolling in wealth, and Hattie ain't got a penny, and it was her father who gave him a start, and if he had any gizzard he'd pay her the four thousand dollars her father loaned him—loaned him! Give him: He knows we're all poor, but what does ho care if some folks up here in Pillowville have to scrimp and save long as he has got all he wants! He is a scoundrel, and you can tell him I said so." He looked at his guest whose eyes were shining bright. " 1 will tell h i m , " he said, hotly, "and I will tell him I agree with y o u . " "Good for you!" cried Mr. Brown, all his wrath vanishing at once. " N o w , pa, you simmer d o w n , " said his wife. Sho and her niece joined in the conversation, which wandered off in a pleasanter channel. It was not much that the girl said, but her words, were spoken with a frank smile and betrayed her mother w i t When the guest took his leave she followed him to the door. " You must not mind what my uncle said," she whispered. " H e is very bitter against Mr. Hallow.", " I don't wonder a t it," he rotnrned, and ho whispered, too. " I t is a debt of horior.

"Come in," c r i e d ' o u t the portly man, and dropping his oval brusher he turned to greet TiU caller. "Well, White, what brings you here so early?" And the caller, who had been Grayin Pillowville and was White in New York, answered straightway: "The money you owe to a dead man, Tom H a l l o w / ' Mr. Hallow's heavy iaw fell.

The gentleman witlrthe fading name shrugged his shouiders. "This will be a pretty dish to set before the queen," he said. . H e was about to leave, but he was called back. "Ah, hold on, Don Quixote, what the deuce does all this mean? You pounce on me and abuse me before the sleep is out of m y eyes. I had forgotten all about Brown; I never knew he had a daughter. If he had lived I would have paid him the monev soon as I was fairly on my feet, and he would have muddled it away in tom-fool speculation, too. Don't go off in a huff. Come breakfast with me and we Avill look into this m a t t e r over a bottle of white wine." His guest hesitated and fingered the door-knob irresolutely. It was well that the other could not see his face, for it wore an expression of mingled scorn and disgust. He conquered his repugnance, however, and presently accompanied Mr. Hallow down Fifth avenue. It was Sunday morning. Early for men who had been to a stag dinner the night before—late for those who were going to church with-wives and daughters. In Delmonico's breakfasts were dawdled over by lonely, languid gentlemen, but those two talked earnestly across corner table, a bottle of wine and sundry pretty little kickshaws between them. When they parted they shook hands. "Now you see I am not such a lowbred s c a m p , " said Mr. Hallow expansively.

" " W e have all lost sight of him," echoed Mr. Gray-White'with a soft laugh. Then he sauntered away alone and entered a fashionable club, where he stared blankly out of a window until he was accosted. "Morning, White. Saw you breakfasting with Hallow. I hear he's going to marry Jim Morton's widow. A far-away cousin of yours, isn't she?" "Yes, anti a deal too good for h i m . " "Oh, Tom Hallow isn't a bad sort, and he is going up like a rocket.

"He will get in if I am any mortal u^,'1'' said Mr. Gray-White, strolling away. t "There is a queer streak in all those Greenville Whites," his quondam companion remarked to a bystander. "An uncommonly white streak," was the would-be witty response. On the last day of that week Mr. Gray-White paid a visit to Mr. Hallow, who triumphantly produced a letter signed "Hattie Brown," and he chuckled unctuously as his caller walked off with the missive in his pocke t Mr. Gray-White read the letter again when he was in his lonesome bachelor room. * I t was not elusive. She accepted Mr. Hallow's apologies for not having remembered the trifling obligation before—there were inverted commas m a r k i n g the words "trifling obligation," and that brought an appreciative smile to the r e a d e r ' s lips., She thanked him for the assurance of his warm regard for her father, the money was very welcome, and sho was his respectfully.

Brown was there, so was her old husband and her gawk of a boy, but next to t h e pretty girl sat a good-Jookingyoung man, who passed her the butter with a melting glance. He gazed fondly at her and she gazed fondly at him. He stole her piece of bread, whereupon she stole a shred of smoked beef from his plate arid laughed aloud in glee. The gentleman with the fading name went back slowly to the tavern and sat on the piazza, smoking far into the n i g h t After breakfast the next morning he was reminded that it was once more Sunday by the ringing of the church bells. He saw a trim figure hasten past the hotel, a bright ribbon floating out behind on the autumn air, and he followed the flouting, beckoning ribbon. The wearer of it vanished in a red brick church, which lie entered, too, seating himself in a dark corner. The oagan pealed forth its music, the choir chanted the anthem, a thin,, sweet soprano voice rejoicing in the strength of our salvation a little above the others. When the service was at an end and the congregation surged out to the vestibule, where holy threads are dropped and profane ones picked up, a prosperous dame said: " I am afraid we shall lose our soprano. She is to be married to.- fife young man who lately opened that grocer shop in Clover street.

N o w I s t h e T i m e To take Hood'a Sarsaparilla, the popular aprlnymeaV ctae and blood purifier. Why / Because the body is now more susceptible t o t h e beneficial effects of this peculiar medicine than a t any other season. Because the impurities In the blood should be e x - pelled and that tired feeliug overcome before t h e additionally debilitating effect a of warm veather a r e felt. Because the thousands of people who have tried t t pronounce Hood's Sarsaparilla the very best m c d l d n e to take In the spring. Because delays are dangerous. A dollar spent f o r this peculiar medicine now may prevent illness which will be expensive and hard to bear. Because, aa now is the time when you may dcrtre the greatest good, It 1* certainly economy to t a k e Hood's Sarsaparilla now. D o N o t b e I m p o s e d U p o n . The great and Increasing popularity of Hood's 8ar* saparilla has led some unprincipled men to use 1( as a bait to draw customers to their store*, and then byunfair representations endeavor to sell other kinds. • It is unnecessary for us lo caution those who b a r e tried Hood's Sarsaparilla and know Its peculiar mertt. But to those who have never taken It we suy. Don't. be imposed upon. Insist upon having Hood'a Sarsaparilla and no other. The men who claim that tbetr preparations are "as good as Hood's." by so doing admit that Hood's is the standard, and possesses pocaslar merit which they try in vain to reach. _ \ •' I m m e n s e A m o u n t o f G o o d .

Several of the boys put in a pretty tough night at the time of the big storm thinking they were making fifty cents an hour. When the railroad company paid them off this week the fifty dwindled down to fifteen, about $1.50 for a night's work in the blinding storm. We do not know how the boys got such a mistaken idea. John Jones is a common name, but in Brighton it does not represent an ordinary citizen.

M N I ^ ^ I BIRKETT,COWENXCO., THE LOMBARDY POPLAR. A T N t Thnt la MOM'V Thoroughly Admired by Soma nivd I)enpUeil by OHUMS, There Ii probnbly'no tree Jiiore thoiv ooghly admired and detesicd than the Lombardy poplar. Most landscape gardeners would be glad if the tree did not exist, for while tlie artist may handle il to advantage, the novice is apt to make a bungling use of i t Among farmers the tree is popular; its rapid growth and strongly marked upright habit are attractive features. After much study of this tree in many places, I am prepared to take a position between the extreme professional gardener and the general planter. 1 ivgree With the gard ner that it is by no means a suitable tree for ordinary yards, or for continuous linos of shade trees, to be stretched for miles niong a highway.. It is not a tree for low grounds or for clumps in level pastures. In all these places it is too formal 01 out of keeping. But on hills, especially whar* seen from a distance, no tree ii more picturesque than this. It.is a tlila Worth remembering that high tives are suitable for high places, aud low trees or bushes for low places. Of high trees none give such an exaggerated idea o\ height as the Lombardy poplar. If 1 had a hill on my farm I should plant a clump of these trees upon it A few Lombard es near a long building serve to relieve the monotony, while at the same time their rigid and formal outlines are in entire harmony with the" building. We all admire the pictures Dt long Italian palace•* which are planted amid Lombardy poplars. If the barn is on an eminence, plant live or six of these trees bes'de it. A smtill group of these trees in the distance '>e> yond a water scene is also desiiaMc to give spirit to the levol fore-ground, especially if the surrounding coujitry. ii level. Landscape gardeners usually discourage the setting of trees in rows. • Sitch an arrangement is too stirt", too much at vari»ne« with nature, and aii'ords too little variety to give the highest pleasure to the beholder. If trees must be fset in rows, however, I know of no better speeies for the purpose than tlie Lombardy poplar, provided the rows be not too long. Be'ng itself a forma! object, it appears to good advantage in formal surroundings. —Along a roaeis.de, on elevated ground, a row of Lombard eg ten to twenty rods lon^ is often deslable. -It is ahvary-atmrmtntrrnrtrrplrrnT "too many l.ombardies. . They should not be planted everywhere or in-great obiiudauce. Indeed, it is only when they are inlivduee 1 sparingly into a *cene that the/ are lo be tolerated. Objects! so alike n appearance as are th'^ diilerenL individuals of Lombardy poplars soon wenvxJiiu vye it they a?e seen in abundance. One or two tree? in n. landscape are always better than a hundred. On • tree vill often g ve spirit to a whole hind-cap > of lo»vheaded lr 'C<. Tl.cir e "ivf is always best when the are seen n\ m a distance. The gTe.'t'>t iiir.dnnee to the planting of Lombardies, however, is the short life of the tree. In the North, trees often begin die when but. fifteen to twenty years old, and 1 have seen \evy few perfect specimens which had attained to tifty year's. To botanists the Lombardy poplar is known as Pop\\us dilatala, "dilated populus," in allusion to the broad'y triangular leaves. The tree has bean planted long in Lombardy and Southern and Central Europe, but its original home is probably in Persia and the Himalayas.—I/. II. Bailey, Jr., in Gowitry Gentleman. ^ • » • .

Vnrtnty'Should B e Tested Before Ileiou; Intrusted t o t h e Soil. A writer in the London Grapkic, referring to the well known fact that new seeds usually germinate more quickly I than old ones, says that many old one! will germinate well with /heat that would perish in cold ground—a factwhich should be borne in mind by those who are testing seeds in warm rooms. Among those which may be kept two MMons are named onions, salsify and twin others, while lettuce, tomatnea • a d artichokes will continue good three •weODi; cabbage, turnips, spinach, kales, &C*. four seasons, and melons cueumbers and beets for five or six seasons. It must, however, be borne in mind that such rules as these are more or le*s arbitrary, as mucli depends on the condition of"~^e seeds and the temperature and dampness of the pTace where they are kept, and on the con- . dition of the soil which receives them, favorable intlnances* sometimes more than doubling their keeping and favoring or preventing germination alto* _ Jfether." Another good authority says: "Many vegetable seeds properly kept, are good to a 'green old age," l o r in» etauoe, beet seed4ms been found good cauliflower two, beans four and over, cabbage four, peas four, &c. Still, new seeds of all but the melons are best if fresh. Especially is it preferable to get them direct from reliable seedmen each year than to trust to those •old on commission at the village store. Before planting any sred, whethel, home grown or from any other source, test each vajier.y before intrusting them to the soil. —In COURtries having marked winter leasone, earthquakes are found to be arqne lrequent in winter than in sum* mer.— N.

LKK, Mass., April 21.--Shortly before six o'clock yesterday morning the dam ot the huge mud pond reservoir a t Mountain lake, two and one-half miles from here, gave way, mid within a few minutes a terrible torrent of water . rushed down the valley through the village of F a s t Lee, carrying with it the first news of tho calamity. In tin instant East Lee was inundated by a flood of seething waters six feet deep, on tho top of which were borne great trees, portions: of houses, fences, wagons and other evidences of the destruction wrought in the valley. People lied to the slopes of the valley, along which the torrent was pouring, and saw houses moved and topple a b o u t like chips on a river. The Hood passed Kust Lee and went on down the road, destroying gardens, lawns and fences, and moving the smaller buildings. It is impossible a t present to tell how many lives were lost, but it is thought t h a t the number will exceed twelve. Eight per- .sons tire known to have been drowned or killed by fulling timbers. They are: A. N. White, Mrs. White, Ida White, their daughter; John White, tuoir infant son; Theodore King. Mrs. King, Mrs. Charles King, Simeon t)owd. The channel gullied by the rushing water IB from 5(.1 to 200 feet wide, and while tho evidences of its terrific power are plainest a s t h e pond is .approached, the most serious loss of life and property occurred in East Lee village. "The water reaches a stream on which manufactories are built by , a brook running through tin? woods ii nil thinly settled farm land, an'd there was n o t much loss of life or buildings until' the village was reached. Here it wrecked lidward Sturges' barn, washed away a bridge spanning the brook, which is but small, as it runs naturally from a small pond, and then rushed down the channel of the stream, on which dwellings aud manufactories are located. CotHTi ~iV. Oakle"y^s~n"iTnT>rngTirsTrb^;'^olTn"" Dowd's manufactory of paper machinery, and A. N. White's carriage-bhops were all destroyed. White's family, consisting of himself and wife, u-'ged forty eight and forty- live years respectively, their daughter Idji and an infant son were in bed when the flood struck the house, and were all killi*l by tho building crashing" in. All the bodies except t h a t of the baby have been recovered^.' Theodore King and wife uud MrSj^tttirlcs King rushed from their houj^r'atid wpcro carried off by the Hood ivntrll row tied. Had they remained in tlie^house they would have been saved, as the building was not destroyed. Simeon I>owd, aged sixty years,, is known to have been drowned, but his body has not yet been found. Further down the stream ,1 ohn McLaugh- Jiii's machine-shops. Harrison (iqrlield's mill and Deckers & Sabin's mill were all, ruined. The boilers and all the basement machinery were taken out by theflood and carried nwtiv like , so much woodwork., J o h n Vernon s paper-mill was also gutted"; These disasters throw a great many hands out of employment, and literally paralyze all East Lee industries. The loss ii)'property is fully $200,000, while the expense of repairing roads and other costs/that must -ttvll-att the town will reach S2t)<fk)P inore. IHK M O N T R E A L Vl.OOiy A H A TINT,.

WASHINUTON, April 21. -The spcciul oom* mittoe appointed by the House of Representatives to investigate the labor ditlirultics hi the Southwest commenced i.q>eratioirn yesterdav a t Washington with tho testimony of T. V. Powderly. Mr. l'uwderlv said t h a t the opinion which prevailed t h a t the strike on the Missouri Pacific road was caused by the discharge of a man named Hall was erroneous. The rent causo was the payment Of low vgiges, long hour* Of service, ctg., as ,.»et forth in the bill of grievances recently made public by the Knights of Labor a t St. •Louis. When asked for redress by the meti.V the otticiuls of the company had refused a conference. An other cause was stated t o , be t h a t of the practice of the company of compelling their n a n along the Iron Mountain road, ami along some roads iu Texas, to purchase food and o t h r r itecessnriet* of life from stores owned by the company. Still another was the employment by several branches of the" Missouri Pacific ro>ad of convict**, who were placed a t repairing tracks, the sight being often witnessed «n a convict ia IIM prison stripes and another mini clothed in the garb of an honest laborer workingside by side. Against such a leveling of conditions the honest workman naturally, and with pardonabk> indignation revolted. Mr. Pu A'derly, in reply to a question, said t h a t the 'organization of Knights of Lalxir had for its object the protection oi labor against the exactions-of employers. Its aims were t o secure, if possible by honorable means, a peaceful settlement of all difficulties. It would ever l>* found as ready to punish wrong us it was to akl in redressing it. A settlement by arbitration of all troubles was its chief aim. It h;ul never legislated on boycotting but once, uud t h a t was' t o restrain it. At the request of the committee Mr. Powderly promised t o lay before it a t some future time his views us to what might be done by way of s t a t u t e or constitutional amendment. WASHINGTON, April ^ . - M r . William O. McDowell, of the Knights of Labor, was questionedyesterday by thecomniitteo appointed bv the House to investigate "the - causes of the strike on the Gould roads. In reply to questions he described the objects of ttie Knights of Labor organization in t«rms similar to those used by Mr. Powderly Tuesday. He then detailed the efforts made to settle tho strike by arbitration* and related the interviews between Mr. , Powderly and-himself ou one side and Mr. Gould on the other. „.--Mr. Burns asked the witness if he had a-uy information that Mr; Gould had issued any instructions to Mr/Huxie which were inconsistent with the rej>roseutations Mr, Gould had made to the Knights of Labor representatives in Kew York. The witness/replied that while the KuigbtK of Labor roprosvutatives were on, their way tO/^t. Louis to curry out the arrangements7 for arbitration P, Rockwell, general ruadmasiter of tho Missouri Pacific, k»sued unorder declaring that no man would \>e em{>loyed or retained in tho. employ -rrf-thtrwmpany as-foreman of r.or^iou me-n~ who was a member of the Knights of Labor, and notifying those employed that .they must give up their Knight of Labor cards'. The witness thought Mr. Gould and his subordinates had iu various ways^acted iu bad faith with the representatives of the Knights of Labor in, this controversy. Mr. McDowell was nsked if he thought J a y Gould was fairly disposed during his interviews and dealings with Mr. Powderly. He thought Gould meant to be fair at Jtiie^iartj but it_seeined to tho_ witness that Mr. Iloxio got on his "*~ETgirTnTfseT^rno^ when Mr. Gould found him rebellious on tha agree-ment to arbitrate, in place of making it a j>ositivo order, he turned round and split b.airs_with the committee. In fact, it appeared to the witness tllut Mr. Gould was in a measure controlled by Mr. Hoxie. It was his impression that to Mi>- Hoxie belongs the responsibility of. th& strike. . H Mr. Grain asked witness what was tho original causovof the strike, ami Mr. Mc- Dowell made a long statement, involving the difference between the principles of day work^,and piece work, and quoted Gould as-saying that by making a change of,tAr:i't sor£ in tho Western Union Teleg r a p h Company ho had effected a saving of eighty per'cent. He added that the general cause of this strike and of recent strikes' all over the. country had been the successful strik-1 on tho horsecar lines iu New York last Feb-. ruary. They bad commanded such universal public sympathy that workmen, whenever they had a grievance or wrong, joined together and made applications to form assemblies of Knights of Lalxw. This was so general that the order had increased more in the month of February kist than it had in the prior eight years. As an additional reason he alleged the universal system of watering railroad'stock, which made it necessary for ruilrVad managers t o screw down the rates of labor as m u c h ' as possible. Mr. Grain asked'whnt remedy he ct?«ld suggest for that. Witness replied that the ""TcnTcdy was to enform the law.—The-4aw of every Stato required that dollar for dollar should" be paid for railroad stock; but that provision oE- 4-- law was evaded by the railroad managers forming themselves into n Credit Mobilieror const ruction company nnd issuing to themselves$li)n worth of stock'for every do,ll:\r or ten dollars of work. Ho did not think the system of pooling earnings of railroads had anything to do with it. Neither was it, in his opinion, attributable to tho competition in labor. Asked for his views on the subject of labor competition, Mr. McDowell said that it had been suggested that a conference should take place between representative ID|K' from the labor organizations and i-qprf* sentative men from trade organizations; t h a t they should me:?t and thoroughly discuss the whole subject. Such a discussion as t h a t would bo approached b y railroad men in a different spirit from that which they would manifest in a discussion with insubordinate brakemou. In this way therewould be gathered the wisdom of able ineu who had been thinking over the subject. Mr. Powderly was then recalled and pave a history of the origin of the Knightsof Labor. The organization was intended, ho said, to take in not only tho man whoworked at the bench or tho mine, b u t every man who toiled, by hand or brain, in any honest occupation. * We> left Q»4- one or two bonost occupations — lawyers and bankers— becausewe felt that thoy were fully capable of t u k l n g c a r s of themselves " he said. Saloon- keepers were inolligible as members, a n d if a member should enter tho liquor business after becoming associated w i t i the organization, he was forced to withdraw from the order. In brief it was a go. ciety for the protection af all kinds of peo. pie who toll, regardless of sex, creed, color or religion, and entirely within the law. Its present membership was about 500,000. Women are members of the organisation and are <*n an equal footing with the men. r Stw §itufmey Uisspafofc, J . I * K E W K I R K , E d i t o r »n<| P r o p ' r , )z) a r i N C K N E Y , MICHIGAN.

General d'Agincourt, her uncle, was The Itan<tsoTa\'st man f. ever snw~. 1 am inclined to waive a certain ancestor in the maternal line, who is reported to have been a valetudinarian and a boref and as to Miss d'AgincourUs great aunt, Lady Somers. who was undoubtedly a creature of weuvklntellect, there is a tnistworthyJ-radition of a fall, in the nursery^-wnich will dispose of the Mipposkion of any hereditary taint.*' _ ^ _ ^ T T K r _ r r n i ^ ; i ^ ^ trnrrhVTt- "".mo. I waited anxiously, but I knew what was coming. Taking his pipe from his lips with that meditative gesture which I knew so well, ho proceeded: " M y researches into the life history of the.i family have been, up oil the whole, satisfactory. I now propose to devote seven ditys'to the analysis of.the young lady herself. At the end of a week, if the r o u l t of my observations points in that direction, 1 shall ask you to propose' to her.*' 1 expected the blow, but it staggered me nevertheless. Argument, 1 knew, would be worse than useless.' "But what is >he like, uncle?" I asked. "Slur will be. as far as I can judge from my present data, of the synthetic order of mind. That is. my hope. ' "What you want in a wife, my dear boy, is synthesis. You're, so confoundedly analytical; you haven't a spark of imagination in your whole composition. That was your poor mother'?: fault." ''But, uncle, I meant what Is s h e l i k e personally?" "She'll be handsome enough foryou, ' "you "yoWg " r o g u e , m i i e T i b i m d . B u t you'll judge for yourself to-morrow. You can take the dog cart down to Cr.ompton station to meet the live o'clock train. To-day is Thursday; on Saturday Week 1 will tell you if you may propose to her." My uncle beamed benignantly, and strolled into the garden.' A* soon as the train arrived, and Miss d'Agincourt stepped from her carriage, 1 began to relent; when I had introduced myself, and heard the music of her replies, 1 began to like her, and when 1 handed her into the dog cart, 1 was in love with her. The rapidity of my subjection amazed me, for although I had always professed to believe in love at tirst sight, 1 had never actually realized tin; possibility of such an event happening to myself. But now I felt like a newly awakened Cymon; my soul suddenly expanded with the most, delicious sensations I had ever experienced, i can not describe her. 1 never c o u l d u n d e r s t a n d how a n y o n e dare attempt to reproduce in words the nameless grace of womanhood. Indeed, to make an inventory of her charms would be misleading, for it was not the aggregate sum of her attractions which rendered her so fascinating, but rather the ever shifting play and variety of their combinations. In a word, she was the most winning young woman I had ever seen. My dear uncle welcomed her with his usual kindliness, mingled with a critical admiration delightful lo behold. His hobby had never produced such fruit before! He was very attentive to her during the evening, and indeed monopolized so much of her conversation that I could not help feeling a little sulky, although I kuew'that his attentions to her were in my own interest. I knew that, while he was playfully drawing out her various tastes and proclivities, he mentally noted them down for his own purposes; and when I heard her quickwitted replies, I was sure that she must be. lindiug favor in his eyes. But he had the true spirit of scientific investigation, and refused to anticipate. When we were left alone at night, and, brimming over with excitement, 1 asked his opinion of her, he only answered: "Well, she seems a sensible girl, and she is certainly a pretty one. She has her father''* eyes. Did I ever tell you the story of Philip d'Agincourt and the French marine-?'' But I was in no mood for listening to my uncle's yarns, and hastily bade him good-nigh t. • During the week Miss d^AglncoTift and I walked and talked and rode and read together, and my life was raised to a. very high pressure. One look from those deep eyes could raise m e , to a state of ecstatic happiness or plunge me into tne~depths of misery. How delightful were such possibilities in comparison with the monotony of my previous existence! Is not love like Captain White's Oriental pickle, " a most delicious—combination of sweets and s o u r s ? " I could not helrr fancving that Rose was "not altogether indifferent to m e , " as modest young men say in novels; but the uncertainty, and the alternations of hope and fear plagued me terribly, and made me nnc o m m o n l y g r a d when the Saturday arriveclou'" which my uncle had promise! to pronounce his verdict. What that verdict would be I had no doubt: would alter the case indeed. But it's impossible. Some moralizing doggerel —eh? Good, solid matter-of-fact,cut into longs and shorts. Ah, my dear Reginald, that isn't poetry!" Now, I was not a little vain of the results of my surreptitious courtship of the Muses, and these remarks chafed me. " I don't mean to say that I have written any thing first rate, but I hope it's better than you suppose." "Well, well," said my uncle, with that kindly incredulous smile of his, "bring your verses to me to-night, and Fll look at them. And now go into the garden and play croquet with Rose."' IV. i Was ever budding poet placed in such a situation? The happiness of my life hung upon the power of my verse. It was with feverish impatience that I opened the desk which held my little store of honey, and sat down to select a sample, for uncle's palate. Dear me, what poor stuff' it'was! Surely I had known Hashes of fancy, a*d experjj enced the poet's frenzy, or could it have been only the frenzy for scribbling? With a sinking heart I chose three or four of my most cherished productions, and took them with me to show to my uncle after dinner. When the ladies had retired, 1 gulped down a glass of claret, and produced the.MS. from my pocket. My uncle took them with a smile which really tried my strong affection for him, promising to look at them before bed time. He had evidently no faith in my poetical genius. Rose was more fascinating that evening than she had ever been before. She sang " M y mother bids me bind my hair" with so sweet a manner that the tears came into my eyes. How I wished that I had expressed myself better in that " O d e to the Great Bear!" And yet I cherished a secret hope of my uncle's conversion. Alas! 1 was doomed to disappointment. " I wouldn't waste any more time over this sort of t h i n g , " said the cruel critic, handing me back my precious MS. " I t ' s not in your line, my boy. Try trigonometry. By the way, my dear,'' he added, T u r n i n g t o my"aTrnt," " I shall be glad if you will drop a note to Woodbird, and ask him to come to us on Tuesday.11 Then I lost ray/temper. I told my uncle that I had sworn bvthe'nine gods to marry Rose d'Agincourt, and t h a t nothing o n / e a r t h should prevent 1113- proposing/fo her, least of a l l a r i d i o u - lous subservience to crotchets that were all moonshine. She was the onlywoman I could ever love, and I would never marry any girl to point a theory or adorn a scientific treatise. " You should not speak of science in that way, my boy," said my uncle, very gravely. " W h e n you are older, you will see matters in another light;" and all my wrath broke in vain upon for my uncle was evidently fascinated by the girl he had undertaken to analyze, a u d i could hardly think that after the first evening he had the heart to dissect her. 11 r. '""'' 'Well; R~e IgTiauT, ^ said n i y - vmeTcT smoking his after-breakfast pipe upon that Saturday morning, "my observations of Rose d'Agincourt were; soon completed. She is a good, honest, sensible and practicable little woman/.' My ears tingled with delight. "Yes. uncle: and von wish me to his placid iront. Before I went to bed that night I was firmly resolved to propose to Rose the next dav, "before that warbling idiot Woodbird comes upon the scene," I muttered to myself. The next morning, however, brought less precipitate counsels. I felt that I could not offend my uncle. Not only was I to some exj. tent dependent upon my guardian, but *Twas dee ply" aftaehed"~foIrim, and I " I don't wish you to do any thing except make yourself civil to the girl so long as she remains here. Of course 1 am rather disappointed that she has turned out so different from what I expected, but we must look elsewhere. I don't mean to say that I regret her visit here, for she is a very pleasant soul to have about .the liouse—a delightful little body. I think we have all enjoyed her c o m p a n y . " " B u t u n c l e , " I gasped, "you said she is so sensible and good, and I am sure she is both. W h a t objection can., there be to her? I think one might go farther and fare worse," I added, with a foolish laugh. •'"'My dear boy," replied my uncle, taking his pipe from his lips and proceeding to mount his hobby, "she is-an excellent woman, an ' admirable woman. She would make a capital wife for-^a- poet or a -novelist, asking Tom Woodbird down to meet her. If 1 could ,marry those two, it would be a beautiful match. Of course I must give up all thoughts of m a t i n g was aware that the only proper course to pursue was to endeavor to alter, his wish. The hobby must be ^attacked. After the pitiful failure of my -poetic — -^ffuskms to alter-his opinion of 1UV7 any further efforts in that direction would be useless. I longed to startle him with some wild and weird lictions of my creative fancy, but found myself quite unable to concoct anv. And so I drifted on irresolutely, until Tuesday came, and brought Tom Woodbird to stay with us. v. Woodbird was not at all of an unpleasant species of poet. He"TuuT not been soured by the vanity >f human wishes any more than ordinary people who art1 unable to pen their aspirations. He did not seen), at all addicted to mooning.Jbut erttered heartily into every thing that was going forward, how matters stood saw my uncle coming towards me with a glow on his-'face that made my heart leap. "Reginald," he said, laying his hand upon my shoulder*, and speaking in an excited way very different from his habitual manner, " g o at once and ask Rose to be your wife; she is in the.conservatory alone. Heaven grant that she may say yes!" What were my feelings do you think? Oh, the joy, the uncertainty, the despondency! If she should refuse me? Ah, now I began to see upon what slight hopes I had built my foolish castle in the air! Never did a man prepare for a surgical operation certain to either kill or cure him with more painful emotions than I went to put my fate to the touch. How it all happened I do not know. From the time at which I entered the conservatory to the time when Rose and I left it together swimming in a dream of mutual happiness, I can only remember distinctly my words: "Do you care for me?" and her precious answer: " Y e s . " We went to my uncle, who blessed u*.;-with tears-in his eyes: there were not three happier individuals in the world. The afternoon glided away in rapture. The hobby was forgotten; and it was not until the evening that I hat! any thought of gratitude to Woodbird, or curiosity as to the reason of my uncle's sudden change of fijont. VI. ','You must give up writing poetry, my'dear, when you're m a r r i e d , " said my uncle to Rose, as we were.taking coffee in-the drawing-room. "Oh, I could never write a line of poetry!" she answered, blushing. "Uncle— for I must always call you uncle— I sec I must make a confession. Will you ever forgive (mo? It was all Mr. Woodbird's doing. Those verses which I showed you this morning were never written by poor me! Did you really think that I could have written them? It was a little conspiracy between Mr. Woodbird and me. He wrote them for the Grosvenor Magazine, and said he wanted a perfectly unbiased opinion of them, so 1 promised to give them to you without telling you who wrote them, but pretending they were_mine, as if I could write poetry! And I didn't tell you, Mr. Woodbird, how pleased he was with them. He said they actually showed—what was it, uncle?—'snythetic imagination?' Oh, you dear uncle, did you really think I had any ' s y i ^ " T i n afraid you will be so disappointed with m e ! " So this.was the secret of my uncle's conversion! X looked at Woodbird, who was sitting with a comical twinkle in his eye, intensely relishing the situation. As for my uncle, his face was a studv. A battle was going on in his heart between the hobby and his affection for Rose and myself. Science and love together puckered up his fiice into the most grotesque complex expression of .Animyancje_and satisfaction. BuJ his kindly nature proved too strong for the resistance of his crotchets, and he submitted. lie rose from his seat, and, going up to Rose, kissed her upon the forehead and said: " 1 shall never be disappointed with you, dear Rose. You have won my heart, as well as Reginald's." And so the hobby was vanquished. When I told Rose the whole story, she was at ti r s~t rat lie r~ c one c r n e d, a t heTinnocent part in the conspiracy: for it appeared to her feminine sensitiveness a cruel thing to deceive my uncle in any thing, and she was not satisfied until he had been informed of Woodbird's wickedness. But my uncle was so pleased with the result that he readily forgave the means by which it had been obtained. <• ur marriage took place after a short engagement, and we have taken up our quarters not far from my old home.

AN APE'S DEATH. I loved no oue in the-world better than I loved 'my uncle, the kind old guardian of my boyhood, but ever since I had arrived at man's esfate 1 lived in dread of his hobby. I \v;w convinced of a sneaking tendency to the romantic in my own disposition which would .harmonize ill with his scientific plans for my future, and I shrank from the trouble which I thought was sure to come between us when the time came for the practical working out of his theories. To listen and assent to his learned dissertations upon hrredity was one thing; to marry a girl because the match would dovetail with his principles was quite another. As I drove down to Crompton the next day, I felt that Iliad already conceived a deep aversion for this young lady who had been'selected, as a fitting complement to my existence. This feeling lasted for half an hour. her with a practical fellow like you such a marriage could produce nothing but the commonplace. You have neither of you one iota of imagination. It is a disappointment to me, 1 confess; for, personally. I like the girl very much, and every thing else is in her favor." 1 could restrain myself no longer. " U n c l e , " 1 cried, " I hope you're not serious, because I—I'm in love with her!" ' 1 thought YOU seemed rather smitten,' said mv uncle, with the most aggravating coolness, "but the feeling will soon pass away. As for your being in love with her, even you must see that such a thing is psychologically absurd. You know very well how often I have told you that it is only the at- -traotion—of opposiios which—produce any real and lasting attachment.' Now, there can not possibly be any such attraction between two equally sensible persons, like Rose and you." " I ' m not sensible, uncle; I write poetry."* "What*!" exclaimed my uncle, bonn ing,out of his chair as it' he bad 1 \y w shot. " I s thai true, Reginald? jTha and, when he saw between Rose and me, he most honorably refrained from any poaching upon my preserves. So much was I pleased with this delicacy that I resolved to take him into my confidence. As he t thiu.k of [ .>vas a p o e t a,,being ->of Imagination all compact," he would doul[tlesS'"be"abTe to imagine some scheme for attacking my m u l e ' s hobby. I was not disappointed. It is true that he embraced the situation with an,Olympian roar of lafighter, which somewhat outraged my sympathies, until I remember .the privilege which superior men possess of looking on the humorous side of things, and I did not take offense. He made very light- of the hobby, and promised mo that my uncle should be won over in a few days. " I t is not the first time." he said, "that 1 have done battle with the subjects of Queen Finteleeheia, 'et militavi won sine gloria.' " The allusion to Rabelais was beyond me. but I had learnt enough J^atin at Kton to construe the quotation from Horace, and felt much relieved at having secured so excellent a champion.

J o h n Bright leaned his elbow on the arm of the red plush chair in which he sat, with a thoughtful look in his dark-blue eyes. / ' W h y , yes, of course.1 ' "By all m e a n s . " . Eugene Carthon and his sister looked eagerly at the handsome blonde in front of them. Tb/oy had been talking -about—the- No^vOjrleansJExpositi^nwhichall hail visited the winter before, and naturally their conversation had drifted into personal reminiscences and criticisms on the ways and manners of/the people of that beautiful Southern citv. ."Did you really have an adventure?" asked Nell, eyeing hiuv qucstioningly from under her long dark lashes. They had intended to meet in the Crescent City, but through some misunderstanding the Carthon family had missed him. Nell had always felt a little aggrieved over this*, just; as if John had "really been to blame in the matter, and an allusion to their sojourn in the •South brought back that vague feeling of disappointment which had mingled itself with all her enjoyments while there. Not that she cared tiny tiling for J o h n Bright. Oh, no; not even to herself did she ever admit that. But then he was Eugene's most intimate friend, and he was such a bright, companionable fellow, how could she help liking him a little? —'-just for Eugene's sake, you know." She sincerely believed that it was her love for her brother that made her so solicitous always for his ftnend/jjj^miLfxuit--a»-d-^o ft«*-iou-s-tom a k e him always feel at home and thoroughly welcome in her father's house. __ _And if .women vvill .deceive themselves so ingeniously in these lixtle matters no one 'can blame them. The reality seems all the prettier when they surprise themselves into the admission one day that brotherly love is not,such a powerful motor after all. "Well, go on with your story," said Eugene, lighting a cigarette, with his sister's permission, and pufling away expectantly. ••I'll b e g e t t i n g drowsy, presently, if you don't wake me up with your thrilling episode." —-"Well-—John twirled his blonde .!>„- mustache reflectively, ignoring the last remark—"I was walking down Canal street one afternoon, wheu it began to rain—" "Remarkable! when it was in the rainy season," interrupted Eugene, who seemed determined not to be led into thinking his friend had met with any extraordinary adventure. "Eugene, do hush!" Nell said, imploringly; but J o h n did not seem to mind his friend's quizzing in the least. "As I said, L-was walking down Canal -street^-when 4t began to rain, not violently, but enough to make a man'feel uncomfortable and the feathers on a woman's bonnet limp. Fortunately I had an umbrella, which of ••course*I immediately raised. J u s t as I did so a young lady came out of one of the large dry-goods stores behind me. She stood irresolute for a moment as though nonplussed by the rain, yet an evident anxiet)- possessing her to reach the car. r ^ s t a n f l y _ l found myself in a Strange dilemma. W h a t should I do? There was a young lady, delicate and beautiful, richly attired in garments which the rain would certainly damago, without the slightest protection from the elements; while I, not three feet distant, was possessed of an umbrella large enough to shelter two. It seemed like a piece of irapertinenc yet on the impulse of tho momeirfT I mustered all my g'allantrv^rtfof, stepping forward, offeredjo^escort'her to •the-car.—*~—~~~^ hesitation in exposing herself to the disastrous effects of the rain." At this juncture Nell, curled up on one end of the sofa with her Kensington in her lap, looked very grave. She could not quite approve or handsome blonde strangers ottering umbrellas to unknown ladies. It might have been the "extreme loveliness" of the Creole belle which made the offense so henious in her eyes, but she would have been shocked' had you suggested such a thing. " W h e n we reached the corner there was no car," J o h n continued. "Being in 'Mardigras' time, there was always more or less delay. When the car did arrive it was so crowded there was not a foothold. The next and next proved to be the same. Unconsciously we walked on, the young lady by almost imperceptible guidance directing our footsteps. We walked along the Rue Royal, quite into the heart of the old French town, the young lady scarcely seeming aware of the fact that we had traversed so many blocks, I was too delighted with her bright conversation and naivete to wish to undeceive her, and so we walked along until she stopped suddenly in front of one of those gloomy French houses, so dreary in exterior appearance, but often beautiful and gay within. A high wall surrounded the dwelling, surmounted by nails driven in so that the points projected upward, a sure safeguard against marauders. As usual, a high balcony graced the front of the house. From the gate—a massive iron-barred one—a stone pave led up to the oldfash ionod door. " 'I feel very grateful,' she said, lifting her big eyes to mine with a shadow of timidity in their depths which made them all the lovlier; 'and,' she hesitated a little, ' I know: my father would wish to thank you also, if—if——' " 'If yoil only knew whom to thank,' I added, with u conscious shame at my own lack of courtes}'. Now, I don't know what deviltry prompted me to the action, but instead of handing her my own c a r d 1 gave her one of Frank i_litU_s*.-a youu-g fellmv rooming -vy-rtrr m e a t t h e S t . C h a r l e s , a d n i m m e r for a large hat firm in Detroit. His name graced the card in -full, arid also 'Tremoine & Leeman,' the name of the firm he was connected with. It was a foolish thing to do, yet I never expected to*<. see the young lady again, and I suppose it occurred to me that it would be a good joke on Smith. "To my great astonishment she recognized the first name. ' " 'You must come ill and see my father,' she said. 'Mr. Tremoine is an old friend of ours, and he. will be so delighted to see you.' " i n t o what kind of a scrape had I gotten myself? I declined as courteously as possible, and tried to hasten away; but just then an old gentleman appeared at the door, in answer to our ring at the gate, for, as you remember, in New Orleans most of the bells are on the front gate. " I n a few words the young lady explained the situation. With a true Southern hospitality he invited me to enter, thanking me in most voluble terms for my kindness to his daughter. .Seeing I ^vould ofiend by not accepting their invitation, I stepped in with them. As usual hi these FrenciiJJ;. bourses; nieTfaTl led into a little barrenlooking court. From this, however, w<» t>nt»nnt—ixiio—aw—apartmuu-t febrtt r at the ••veral unplic^ —Ifief fffeie* r was elegantly furnished "A servant took ra-y -umbrella and hat, and the old gentleman pushed forward a handsome easy-chair for me, seating himself near me. The young lady disappeared, reappearing in a little while in a charming dinner-dress of garnet satin. " I confess I was a little dazed by the sudden turn affairs had taken, and the tete-a-tete with the gentleman, whose name I ascertained to be De Chartre, was not embarrassing, for he asked mc a score of quootionj about Detioit and the people there, all of which I, never having been in that city, was obliged to answer at random, or from vague reminiscences of what Smith had told me casually. , " " I tried in vain to turn the subject, and had almost given myself up to desperate fibbing when 1 chanced to perceive that a piano was behind me. During a momentary lull in the conversation, in which De Chartre was probably trying to reconcile my rambling information with his own knowledge amLejm^ctures,I-turned-to-the y o u n g lady, requesting some music: "To my relief she consented immediately, thus saving her father from any further surprises in the way of chaotic guessing on my part. She sang and played quite prettily, and I found myself even more prepossessed than I had been at first. "After she had played several songs I arose to go, but as I did so dinner was announced, and I was urgently invltcd~by them uoth to remain. Again I saw that to refuse would be tp offend, so, in order to preserve Smith's re tion from further damage, I a e c e p t e d , resolving that I would e x W t m y talents to tile utmost i n j j e r n g entertaining. You see, I wantea them to speak a good w p r d ^ i o r Smith if ever they chance to communicate with is Tremoine, w h o m 1 heartily wished at the bottom of the sea. " T h o dinner was served in good style, and quite enjoyed by Smith, who w a s sometimes r a t h e r dilatory in re- •*To my>*tirpri80, and I must say pleasure, she accepted gratefully, and we walked to the next corner to meet t i n o«r. I noted then tho extreme kwdfoess of her beauty, which was of <fbe pore Creole type, and the mafveloflf taish of her toilet, which showed in sponding to his name, but who managed Jo keep the u p p e r hand in the conversation, not allowing the old gentleman a single g a p in which to insert bis inquiries about Detroit and the Tre- "AfHf dinner we adjonfMd to the for a smoky, in which I declined to kiin him. "The rain which had been mild at first, now turned into a raging torrent. It beat savagely against the windows, and the wind swept mournfully through the court. Now and then it crept under the doors and into the room, bringing a faint Ncont of the orange-blooms that were being swept fromjtheir stems on the bending trees without. But the inclemency of the weather outside only made the comfort and brightness of the apartment seem more perfect. "With such a charming hostess the moments sped swiftly. I became more and more enthralled with her dark eyes and her gracidus manners, so typical of the grace which has made the Creole women celebrated. Besides, the novelty of the situation made it seem tenfold more attractive Jt began to tremble vaguely for Smith's peace of mind. It would be superhuman for a man to resist the fnscinat'en of the lovely creole.. I don't know to what length 1 might have committed myself, had not the door opened and Monsieur De Chartre once more appeared upon the scent'.*. As it was, I think he surprised me saying some foolishly tender things to his daughter. " I looked *t my watch. A Hush of shame crept over me. It was past ten o'clock. I fell; that I had infringed on the hospitality extended to me. I began to apologize, but Monsieur De Chartre stopped me. " 'My dear sir,' he said, cordially, 'you can not go out in such a storm. I will not permit it,- My home is large. We have anipie accommodations., Kemain with us t o - n i g h t ' " I hesitated a moment; the rain beating on the window-pane seemed dismal enough. Besides, I was in a part of the city with which I was. unfamiliar. I might lose my way and wander about those narrow streets for hours; and then blood-curdling tales came back to me of strangers who had been robbed and half murdered in those dark thoroughfares. I had a valuable 'watchzaini:iciEagn^agd^:qiTrteasuTrr-of o n o n e y a b o u t m e r w b i e b I-wonld—not care to lose. I confess the idea of venturing out into that pitiless storm, in the heart of the high-walled, mysterious French town, unprotected by a weapon of any sort, rather dismayed me. Yet I remembered that I had made arrangements to leave the city in the morning, and I intimated as much to Monsieur De Chartre. " 'That will not incommode us at all.' he said, .politely. 'I will leave word with one of theservants to unlatch the door and gate at live o'clock. You can rise then and leave the house at your pleasure. If you desire a cup of coffee Jacques will have it ready for you.' " I thanked him sincerely. I could not feel .grateful enough for such a warm and cordial hospitality. It is true indeed that these Southerners have the kindest and most hospitable hearts in the world. An old and valued friend of the family could scarcely have been treated more kindly than I, a complete stranger, save for* the slight stamp of genuineness which 'Tremoine & Leeman ' gave me in this most elegant and beautiful home, every part of which betokened the wealth and position of the o wner. ___ 37few moments later Jacques came — "With a to show me to my room. With a lingering glance I bade the young lady good-night. It seemed to me that her beautiful eyes were filled with a ^ h u d - ow of regret for our brief acquaintance. Her father followed me to the court without, after giving me several messages for Mr. Tremoine and other friends in Detroit, all of which I promised to carry faithfully. Then with a courtly good-night he intrusted mo to the care of the waiting African attendant. "My apartment was handsomely furnished, in keeping W^th t.hft rest nf thn house.—It was apparently a back room connecting with one in front of the house b y l i e a v y folding doors across which a rich crimson portiere fell. "Jacques brought me a pitcher of fresh water and some clean towels, and then, mumbling something in his unintelligible crude French, bowed himself out. . "I examined the room carefully, locked all the doors except the folding one, which I found fastened on the^ other side, and went to sleep thinking what a capital joke this was on Smith, . -.who-wus-Ai-adottbtedrv-repostng- beautifully in room 105, at the St. Charles, unconscious of the strange escapade I had gotten him into. I resolved to write to the young lady as soon as I left the city, informing her of ray little deception and introducing the original Smith, whom I was quite sure would-^l™?-*1 h l s cigarette—"I awoke. fall head over ears in love with^hef at sight. Poor Smith, I w a s j t t s t m a p p i n g put his future most^beautifully, when Morpheus seizeji^ne and carried me off into Arp.AmUCnti. _ ut midnight I was awakened by slight noise in the roonrr I listened, but all was as still as death. Apparently the whole household had fallea into* slumber. I attributed the souud to my own imagination, and was about to compose myself to slumber, when a cold chill crept over me. I was sensible of a near presence. The room was intensely dark and I could see nothing. Neither could my faculties, which were now thoroughly acute, perceive the slightest movement or sound.—Yet, my blood ran cold with the premonition of evil. I could feel a cold sweat breaking out all over me—the chill crept to the very roots of my hair. "With a sudden bound I leaped from the bed. The matches were on a table near. I struck one and looked around, half expecting to see some uncanny lamp, and examined the apartment carefully, but alt was as secure as when I retired. "With an impatient condemnation of my weakness I went to bed again, leaving the lamp burning i « w . As I am no believer in haunted houses and my digestion is unusually good, I .soon sank into a deep slumber. "About two hours later, however, I was again awakened by that mysterious sensation. Again the cold chills, betokening some evil unknown presence, crept over me. A terrible presentiment took possession of me. I dared not move for a second. My knees trembled, the cold drops of moisture stood on my brow. What could it be—this awful presence that seemed to lay cold fingers upon me in the darkness and wake me from my sleep? I lay there shivering as though chilled by some actual, icy touch for a moment, then my healthy, vigorous physique reasserted itself. I was no coward even to myself. I rose stealthily and crept to the light, turning the full blaze on suddenly. "A change in the room startled nie. The heavy portiere was thrown aside, the folding-doors stood wide open. Resolved to penetrate this mystery, I stepped into the other room. "A cry of horror escaped me as I did so. 1 stood in the middle of the floor, petrified, the very blood fre'ezing in my veins. There on the bed lay a man with his throat gashed from ear to ear, the red blood oozing slowly upon the white counterpane and the rich carpet beneath. His wide eyes were upturned to the ceiling, his white face transfixed with the death agony. "For a second I stood there as if frozen to the spot/ my senses reeling, my hands clinched i n a sudden agony of mortal terror; then like a flash of lightning tha truth swept over me. A terrible crime had been committed. The responsibility was to be laid on me. in the morning the police would come to arrest me.

I-went to my room and" dressed myself, leaving not the slightest tracetof my presence there. Assuring niysdlf that not a card or a slip of paper was left as a clew to my identity, I took mv boots in my hand and crept noiselessfy down the stairway. "When I reached the door bej*ond the court I shrank back in dismav. I had forgotten it would be locked and barred.

HENKV THOMPSON1, of Greensboro, Ga., kept a sheep in a pen with four oxen. After a companionship of Beveral weeks the sheep refused to be separated from the oxen. It walked beside them constantly for three duys while they were hauling wood from a distant forest. CAPTAIN CAKK.VWAY, of Halifax, drew out of his well a live moccasin snake about a foot and a half long. It was taken to the house and fed with insects. It soon became very tame and is now a great pet among the children, who play with it as they do with their kittens and dolls. A UOYAL, battle took place between a bull and a buck, the latter weighing over two hundred pounds, on the farm of Hon.' Oscar Turner in Ballard County, Ky. The two were found dead. The bull had received three thrusts from the horns of the buck, the last being through the heart. A PISHKHMAN at Port Eads, La., landed what is said to be the largest food fish ever caught on the American coast. It was a black sea bass or jew fish. It measured seven feet nine inches in length and weighed seven hundred and thirteen pounds. Its body was as large as that of a horse. A-COOP of#hi«kens stood on the sidewalk before a grocery in Charlotte, N. C , and, as Dr. W. M. Robey passed, one old hen began cackling and boating her wings against the bars of the coop. The doctor quickly recognized her as one of the pets from his poultry yard, stolen several weeks before, and she remembered him. A FISHERMAN says that he has frequently caught two fish on one hook in the waters of Long Island Sound, one of the fish having seized hold of the other's tail. He thinks t h a t certain fish have a habit of steering each other through strong currents in this manner. When taken out of the water exhaustion causes them to tighten their hold, and thus _the angler is enabled to land them.

Probably no concern in tiie country nafl adhei ted more strictly to the determination to achieve success by the liberal use of printer's ink than has the Brown Chemical Company of Baltimore, Md. Starting business about five years ago, they have, exponded o vor $ 1,500,000 in the preparation and circulation of printed matter, more than half of which has been paid for newspaper advertisi ug. All this haa been done to make known the virtue* of their celebrated Iron Bitters. As might be expected, very large sales have resulted from this enormous outlay, making i t about as staple in m a n y drug stores aa is flour a t t h e corner grocery. Like all good things, i t has been largely imitated. They claim there a r e unscrupulous manufacturers who cater t o just this sort of trade, and some dealers so lacking in principle, t h a t because a greater profit cau be made on fraudulent t h a n on genuine medicines, a r e willing to delude the public by pushing off Irou Tonic Bitters and other Tonic Medicines inplace of genuine Brown's Iron Bitters. The company, finding these frauds practiced HO extensively a n d a l l other means inadequate, have at last determined t o t r y a little cold law to put a stop to them. Suits for heavy damages h a v e therefore been commenced against Non-Secret Medicine Manufacturers, for selling Iron Tonic Bitters; and others for selling Brown's Iron Tonic; a druggist in Baltimore, forsellineSron Tonic Bitters with his n a m e upon the label, which medicine was me.de by Non-Secret Medicine Manufacturers, a n d also claimed as an imitation. The Brown Chemical Company deserve success i n these suits, as it is nigh time those who have built up large enterfirises to success, should be protected from hose who live not by their own genius and effort, but by copying a n d counterfeiting things t h a t have ooon made standard and valuable by others. —. • .

One of the speakers (claiming he had the power to arrest) stepped from the pulpit and attempted to take into custody Barney Munaham.

F, Backus said, "He feels so good, better give him another," and other similar remarks were heard. But hostilities ended here—as also did the meeting— or ripe hen-fruit would have been used. ^ —The Detroit Museum of Art was the outgrowth of the splendid Art Loan exhibition given in Detroit in the tall of 1883.

It is managed by eight trustees, two of whom are appointed y -.the-Mayor-aBd Common Council of Detroit, and the remaining six elected by a membership composed of all persons who may contribute $1,000 or more to the funds of the Museum. The sura of $100,000 has been raised or pledged by citizens of Detroit toward the purchase of ground and the erection of a building for the purpose of the institution, and this it is expected'will be begun the present season. The institution is already the owner of several very valuable pictures. The work ot the Museum will be threefold: 1st, the collection of a permanent gallery of paintings and statuary ;2d, the conduct ot art schools, where residents of this State possessing talent in that direction may enjoy opportunities for the cultivation of the same; and, 3d, the holding of an annual exhibition of new or not previously exhibition works of art and the awarding ot prizes tor the most meritorious.

It has been repeatedly shown chat 8 quarts of milk will average to produce this quantity of cream. The amount paid by the Lapeer creamery at present is 10 cents for the 6i spaces required to make 1 pound of butter. This quanity of cream is furnished by 8 quarts of milk, so that the ayerage price paid per quart is nearly 2 cents Skim milk is estimated to be worth 1 cent per quart to feed to poultry, pork,' or veal. If so fed, the farmer nets 3 cents per quart for the year for his milk at his door, and hasn't robbed his farm of anything. This is the great point. When the whole milk or skim milk is sold off the farm, it is virtually selling the farm by the can, for few milk producers buy grain* enough to return to the soil through the manure the plant food carried off in the milk sold. That is to say, by the creamery system, the cream'5 has been skimmed at the farmer's door and the returns to the farmer are equal to 3 cents per quart for his whole milk. Will creameries be overdone? is a question that suggests itself. We have no fears on this point. - There is always a paying market for good butter of established reputation. Ttts the pour article thatdoco notfiad a sale. Experience has also shown1 that unless a creamery pays wonder-' fully well, and oftentimes even then, there will be no more or but little more butter made in the home dairies. The creamery merely makes a^product that sells and brings a better' price. There is no danger of the total butter product being materially increased unless creamery patronsr make money at it, and if they make money at it that is just what they want. Moreover, a high-quality creamery butter of established reputation does not suffer from oleinargarine pr~other bogus^rmitatioiis that crowd the market for poor dairy but* ter.—Lapeer ClarioH. » * •* LOCAL NOTICES.

The panorama presented is such as Mexico only contains: P'ecaakns to uthieir very ssuummmmiittss covered with verdure.canyons whose vast 'depths the light of the sun never penetrates, clitVs. swinging from the regions of perpetual summer, on whose brows the clouds eternally rest- In the near distance -may be seen the foot hills,graduall y .shading off into tho vast plain bounded on the further side by the "Vermillion Sea.'' The.light of the sun shining on the grand scenery, or bursting through some cloud-capped mountain peak, gives the whole an air of grandeur and beauty calculated to astound one even familiar with Alpine scenery. In what is now the border between the States of Durango and Sinaloa, this region culminates in mountains of rugged grandeur and ^anyons of dizzy <iepths, remarkable even in Mexico. death or luck11 as his motto',) he works away, and the initcrte more often his fate than the suerte.' When a lucky miner has succeeded in making " a raise,11 he is in constant danger of losing both his property and his life from the banditti which hover about as vultures about a dead carcass. That fabulous wealth lies concealed in the bowels of those, hills, there can be no question; but it will require a different class of miners and a different state of society t h a n now exists in Mexico to develop it. The full blood Aztec seems to delight more in recounting the lost glories of the Montezumas than to add to them. T h a t the Mexicans were aware of tho almost fabulous wealth contained in these regions even before the appearance of Hernando Cprtez, there can be no doubt. The many Jegonds of the Heals Perdidoa O Kncantados date back perhaps a hundred years before the eonuuest by the Spaniards. These legends are beyond doubt founded on the enormous wealth the mountain mines were known to contain. As stories ever change to suit the age, constantly magnifying, it is very^easy to conceive how these buried-' mines"of gold and silver peeping.out from the mountain sides could be changed to cities .and haciendas of wealth untold awaiting the discoverer. The more ignorant miners of the present day still believe these stories and legends to be true; hence, with Hasta la mitertc-o la auc-rte lirmly resolved in his heart, he works away* with a zeal which could not, be otherwise inspired. If he would depend more on pluck, ingenuity and modern mining machinery he would succeed better than to put his whole dependence on luck and the delusive hope of finding buried or enchanted cities. They reason that these towns, like Pompeii, have been buried in some great irruption or earthquake, and that treasures untold lie within them. The more superstitious, speak of them as1 being enchanted, and the stones told by some of the white-headed Indians w o u l l rival the Arabian Nights. The Spanishproverb Pombarba,pocoverqucn. za (-'little beard, little s h a m e 1 ' ) is frequently applied to the garrulous Indian to discredit any thing he may say. Surely one would have to be very credulous to believe some of them. The legends are worthy of repetition from their richness in imagination, if from no other cause. himself Los Trcs Frailcs, Q11 ag u ontoTift heads above the of eternal sun, El Cerro Pelon and 'Their rociv-TTowned "clouds into the glare and from their .feet, through canyons which only the Yosemite can' rival, How the rivers San Lorenzo, Piasthv.and Presidio.

My^ narrator was an old Indian named Ramirez, whose chief occupation was guiding tourists and miners who visit this almost unknown part of the world. Ramirez had regaled himself with a drink of pulque,, which is the favorite beverage of Mexico, and lighted an antique, pipe which seemed to afford him infinite satisfaction. His bronzed skin contrasted strangely with his white jacket and trousers, and im- -nvense- sombrero .ou-the gxonnd._at„Jibi side. Ramirez was half sitting and half reclining on the ground, lazily watching the donkeys and mustang, lariatted a short distance away. I don't know that the old rascal ever enjoyed himself .better, while I was in constant dread *lest some wild "mountain brigands, who infest the Sierra Madre might suddenly appear from>some convenient chaparral and deprive me of the few reals and pesetas of silver I possessed, or take away our animals and arms, leaving us helpless in the mountain wilds. Ramirez seemed to have no concern about the wild marauders, and took mutters as coolly as if he had been in the heart of civilization. To my urgent requests to go on, he answered: "Don1 ! be in too great haste, senor; we can not reach them before nightfall. It is never safe to travel when the sun is so hot. We will be able topass the night on the top of Quaguento, from which you can getji-good view of the Vermillion SCJJU^-"" " I havcalnrdst given up th&-krp'a of lormg the canyonJJ ^ft£mirez,, ' I for having IniartTso many stories of the wihi^rOm)ers, I was afraid to ventyjfe^too---near those dangcrousing places. "Why, senor?1 ' asked Ramirez? tixiug his great dark eyes on me. " I am afraid of these mountain robbers who lurk in the canyons.11 "Well, sometimes the pronunciados do £?ct among these canyons, but we are "more likely to find prospectors, hunting for the Reals Perdidos u Kncantados. They are harmless and would help us.11 After a moment's pause, with a sigh ho continued: " I may not be the one, but whoever he is, he will be rich." "What do you m e a n ? " I asked. "Whoever finds the enchanted towns will be rich.." ''Are you so foolish as to believe any thing of tho kind exists?" I asked in no little amazement. . He opened his eyes, and for a few moments I never saw such a complete picture of astonishment and indignation. At last removing his pipe the Aztec said-!— — " I am very sorry senor said that. It shows that much as may be known of other4 countries, nothing is known of Mexico, or the history of the Aztecs. The Reals Perdidos are_true." "Mining towns mrfy bo lost," I answered, " a n d doubtless-arc They may be buried- beneath, land-slidaa, acnb4uak«*> , %mi~ jj^ufrUuM iu the expl that they will never pay for the discovery if found. As to there being enchanted towna,and cities, inhabited or uninhabited, I believe that to be wholly a myth." Though using the best Mexican at my command, I am yet in doubt whether the old Aztec fully understood me. He seemed, however, to catch the drift of my idea, and as if to convince the most skeptical mind, proposed to narrate one of those strange legends. As I had heard many before, and knew that while they abounded in the extravagant, rliey were rich in incident, I consented to listen to another. It would hi fully three hours before the lazy guide could be induced to stir from beneath the tepiguage, so the time might as well be passed in storytelling as in any other way. His story was of one of these enchanted cities, and hidden orunge groves. I here, give it as near as I can remember it. The translation may-net be literal, but in substance it is the same. "Many years ago when the children of the suu rultd this part of the world, while the grandfather of Montezuma was on the throne there was a young man of noble birth in his court. He was brave, and one of the King's best Generals. His n a m e was Heraclio, and wherever he led the armies of Montezuma, they were successful. This Heraclio possessed a very violent temper, and when in a ragTf^Va.s terrible. A witch of the mountains cautioned him when he was a child to restrain his temper, or it would not only prove his ruin, but the destruction of Mexico. He was so proud and haughty that he held even the King in defiance. Surely the Monarch would not dare punish one so powerful and inlluential as he. The King had been at war with some northern tribes and had succee'ded in humiliating them, and compelling them to pay tribute. Heraclio returned laden with spoils and honors, and a great banquet was given in honor of him, in the piazza in front of the King's palace. He was honored as no General had ever been, and made one of the King's chief advisers.-There. was a poor slave whom Heraclio bitterly hated". He purchased the slave, who had been captured in war. and made his life miserable. Before his capture the young man had been a Prince, and it was his bravery which had won t h e . lasting hate of Heraclio. He finally had the captive Prince dragged to the mountain,and llieie chained to a tree. He beat him with a stick until he was 4>ruises from head to foot. Then he had the vultures come day by day, and devour his flesh as fast as it grew. Heraclio rejoiced in his misery and used every device to increase it. The Prince.prayed to die and end his "suffering, but death was denied him. Heraclio kept tame vultures to feast on his llesh, until his lower limbs were nothing but dry bones. One day the tortured man refused to breathe and ended his miserable life by'voluntary suffocation. "The King heard of the cruelty of his chief counselor, and had him arrested. But Heraclio had such confidence in his high position that he did not dream that harm could befall him. As he was going across the judical chamber he saw his own portrait hangiu^- jon-tiui-WalU,,yvjtlLJLiillQ_J.raccd by an arrow across it. He started bacTT tilled with fear and astonishment. A self iu this manner. For days and weeks he wandered about the valley, subsisting on grass, and roots, and herbs, like the cattle—refusing to do the bidding of the sentry. The sentry was always at the gate and t\iu walls were so high that he could not climb them, or get a glimpse of the interior. From behind those wails came the sweetest music ear had ever heard. It seemed to come from some instrument that floated in tho air. Voices joined in singing songs so sweet as to almost drive him mad. He was tormented at times by Hying vultures and serpents, and the most loathsome animals one ever saw. Through all one white dove seemed to act as his friend, and urged him to comply with the demand of the sentry, and enter the gate. He held out yet awhile, but his torment was too great and at last he complied, burning incense to appease the wrath of the gods. Then as he approached the gate, the sentry raised his lance in salute, and the gates of pearl opened wide for him to enter. He passed through, accompanied by the dove, which bidding him follow, spread its wings and tlew to a grove the like of which Heraclio had never seen. There were trees loaded with choice fruits and ilowers, and the air was burdened with an aroma, the richness of which can only be imagined. The paths wen; inlaid with gold and diamonds. He met people with faces and garments of snow. There were birds of the brightest plumage in the grove and they .joined in the songs he heard everywhere. "Heraclio was delighted, but no one spoke to him, and as he approached they melted away. He wondered at the cause of all this. Glancing at his hands he saw that they were red. Blood was dripping from them. The dove told him that it was the blood of the Prince he had murdered that was on bis hands, and no one would associate with him while it was there. 'How can I get it off?1 he asked. The dove said there was' a pool in which the blood stains could be washed away. Heraclio was taken to the pool. He had to press his^way through a chaparral of thorns, infested with serpents, scorpions, lizzards and all sorts of poisonous reptiles. At times he grew faint, and was on the point of turning back, but the dove urged him on. At last hq came to the pool and found i t a fountain of blood. How can I be cleansed by bathing asked. PEKSONAL AND LITERARY. capital sentence was indicated in that manner. He had over-estimated his power, and had been sentenced to death. With the fear of death, came the horrors of remorse. The blood of the murdered slave seemed to cry out against him, and he lied from the palace. The guards, not knowing lie was condemned, allowed him to pass. He lied to the mountains. LosTres Frailes was first reached, and when he had concealed himself, he lay down to sleep. He slept a longtime—some say hours, some say days, and some say a hundred years.

He seemed $.0 neither gain nor lose on it. The chaparral and mesquit bushes disappeared, the cactus was left "Behind, and on every side there sprang up a strange, unnatural tree. He pursued the fawn through a canyon so dark that no object but the animal, which seemed of a golden color, could be seen. After wandering for miles through the dark canyon, he came out in a broad valley watered by delightful rivers, and covered with luxuriant grasses." /There was a'city in the distance, the streets of which were paved with gold. The spires and roofs glistened so that he scarce could bear the light. The gates were of pearL and before them tall, dark soldiers in shining armor solemnly marched. He had no thought of the fawn how, but slak^ ing his thirst in the first stream he came to, started for the 'Reals Perdidos 0 Encantados.' " ' A l t o a h i / (halt) said the sentry as he came near the gate. The unfortunate Heraclio came to. a standstill, for the man handled his shining lance in such a w a y / t h a t the senor's courage seemed al^bf a sudden to desert him. 'Who, a r e you?' " He explained that he was a General of t.h«> army of the King of-tha.^Azr tecs, a n d / w a n t e d shelter within the walls o r the citv.

The W. C. T.

For some time we were free trom the curse of an open saloon, and the n peace reigned througbtour borders; and we miirht truthfully add, temperance sat smiling at our doors. But again it has lifted its treacherous head, and is sending out its deadly virus, and we, a christiomzed people, seemmorly shut our eyes against this dangerous toe and suffer our young men and boys, our 3<wi^attdour brothers to become__its willing victims and thus undo the work of'years ot earnest prayerful training.

" said Farm«r William Fra»ier, of this township. He declares t h a t he opened the snake season of 188(J in this lively mauner, and that nothing could have been further from his thoughts than snake hunting. " I don't like such an early beginning of the snake campaign," said he. '"It's a sure sign of a d r y summer when snakes begin to forage so early in the s p r i h g \ l don't know why, but I've noticed rp to be a fact for the past ten years. It first attracted my attention in 1876. In the spring of that year I went out to my wood pile one warm day in March and found a big rattlesnake coiled up on my axe, and he was about as liveiy a specimen as I ever saw. Before the 1st of April I killed more than thirty snakes of different kinds on and about my farm, and they were just as early and plenty all through the neighborhood. The^drougbt we had that year was one of the worst ever known. It was the same in i860. One of my boys killed three water-snakes on St. Patrick's day that year, and it was as cold as Greenland, too. Crops literally burned up that year. So they did in '62, when the snakes made their appearance early iu April. If the rule works this year I will sell my farm and go t o tilling the soil in some country where there are no snakes-." An Kxpensive Error. [Truth.!

A drunken row occurred on the farm of "Phid" Dnnlavey yesterday afternoon in which four men (one colored) from near Dexter set upon a man who the day before came to work for Mr. Dunlavey and beat htm terribly, one of them striking him with hatchet, and the negro stamDing^upon him. The men got into^fheir wagon and drove to tbitT'village, and after gettinjr^4i#uored up again departed rards Dexter. Dr. Hoag was called and attended to the man's wounds, which we trrrder-^lwil niu -not as serious as at first thought. We were unable to ascertain the names ot the parties, participating in the riot, any more than that of McNutt, the one who used the hatchet. No arrests have been made. Truman Smoke who was_poisoned by the fangs of a dead rattlesnake puncturing bis finger end while building a fence some four weeks ago, has recovered from tbe effects but is yet unable to follow his vocation. He bas shed bis skin from the roots of bi9 hair to the soles of his feet, and his hands and teet are yet tender. His hair has begun to fall out and his fingei nails have become loosened and are giving place to the growth of new ones. The ca^e is most remarkable, and should commend the attention of the medical fraternity. With the exception of tenderness of the new growth of skin Mr. Smoke appears to have regained his usual health and strength. and will probably be able t) return to work in a week or so.—Clio Star. One day last week a man claiming to be a doctor stopped at the residence oj Jesse Hause, and after examining Mr. Hause told him of his ajlments and said ha would cure him entirelr in eight weeks tor $20. But the secret was right here: He wished $10 down and would wait a year for tbe balance." Mr. Hause, like any sensible man, re* fnsed to do this and the doctor^?) continued to urge his case until he fell to $5 for the first payment. It was quite evident, however, that be was after the first $10 or $7 or $5 or whatever he could get, and that would be the last heard from, hun-unless he took a note on the balance and enlarged its amount. The resu t was that be was turned off the place and he went on to seek a victim elsewhere. People should remember that first-class physicians— who can cure any kind of a disease in eight weeks—don't have to travel the country "by hand," and from responsible persons they do not require payment in advance.

His master kept nearly a do#cn cows, and they ranged at will/among the hills during the day. When the sun was low in the west hrr master would say to the dog: 'J/Bring the cows home;" and it was7 because the dog did this task so well that he was called Fetch. One sultry day he departed as usual upon his evening task. From tered, shady and grassy nooksThe at last gathered all the cattle into the mountain road leading to the distant barnyard. A/part of the road ran through a low, moist spot bordered by a thicket of black alder, and into this one of the /cows pushed her way and stood quietly. The others passed on, followed some distance in the rear by Fetch. As the cows approached the barnyard gate he quickened his pace and hurried .forward as if to say: " Tni here, attending to business." But his complacency was disturbed as the cows filed through the gate. \ Ho whined a little, and growled a little, attracting his master's attention. Then he went ^o-the high fence surrounding the yard, and standing on his hind feet {>eered between two of the rails. After coking at the herd carefully for a time he started off down the road again at a full run. His master now observed than one of the cows was missing, and he sat down on a rock to see what Fetch was going to do about it. Before very long he heard*tho furious tinkling of a bell, and soon Fetch appeared bringing in the perverse cow at a rapid pace, hastening her on by frequently leaping up and catching her ear in nU teeth. The gate was again thrown open and the cow, shaking her head from the oa»n of the dog's rouglu'eminders, was fat tjirough it in a way that she did, M t toon forgot. Fetch then lay down 4ttfcN)j to cool off in time for supper. n St. Nicholas. RARE AND RICH. Choice Morsels Especially Prepared for Lovers of Epicurean H e a d i n g .

[fcmn Francisco Call.] Judge By bee, of Portland, Ore., has an Irish setter, and between the justice and the dog a very intimate friendship exists. T]4e other day the judge went to San Francisco without consulting the setter. As soon as the dog missed his master he went moping about, and refused to be comforted. J!he next day he grew moodier, and when three days passed by and still no master was visible he lay down in the closet where the hunting traps were kept "Trad^refused all caresses, and for flvedays would not take a particle of food. Finally he wandered off to a livery stable, where' his master's horse was kept, and would not be driven away. Ouce a day he went back to the house for food, and kept up this programme till the absent one returned. • » • • - — A n o t h e r B o y c o t t Failure.

It is then, by means of an oftcretof, deposited in long bins ia the tpper story of the niilL By means of separate spouts the corn is then conveyed into large "steep tanks," holding •ay sis hundred busheU eaoh. After being covered with hoi water it is. allowed to remain six days, or until it is sufficiently soured. It is then by a •crew conveyer and elevator taken to the millstone's hopper. Just before it reaches this point, it passes through a revolving-wire screen which separates the cormftbm the water. It is then conveyed to the mills, be* tag mhced again with water, and, afcer going 'through two sets of four-root millstones, it passes below to the **hkkers." These are vibratine boxes, open at one end and covered with a wire and satin sieve. Here the starch and gHttea are separated from the solid particles of the eon, which is called *eoarse feed." This descends into' a well and is pumped up by means of a powerful force-pump and run off into vats for its reception where it is drained and is ready for use. After passing through the •'shakers,'* the starch and gluten are conveyed to the •Tun-house," receiving on their wny a stream of water. The 'run* nonce** is generally a room containing many troughs about eighteen inehes wide and one hundred feet in length. Tfteso runs are slightly Inclosed, and While passing through them the starch settles to the bottom, while the watery part passes off. and is run into the gluten vat The starch it then con* veyed to the agitator wells, and being mixed with cold water, is thoroughly agitated, by mean* of a revolving-rake, k is all ready then to be pumped up and passed through a bolting reel, where all the impurities are settled, and the pure starch conreyed, by means of pipes, to settling tabs. The water in then drawn •ft. and the starch, pure and White, is conveyed to a large receptacle, where it is placed into the mould-boxes. After •emaining in the mould-boxes three to four hours it is cut into blocks about six inches square, lifted to the second floor, plaoed on cars and run into the crusting- room, where it remains over tight. The next morning the blocks are scraped, or, rathor. the crust cut •QT, with sharp knives, and are wrapjei in blue or b onze paper by one person, at the rate of eight hundred packages per hour. *fbcse packages are placed on cars with slatted frames, holding thr*e hundred and. ninety-two package* each. As they are tilled they are run into the dart room, which Is kept at an average temperature of one hundred and sixty degrees. The starch is kept here until it is thoroughly drieu into the pri-mafic form in .which it is purchased in t.ie market These oars are run to a warerbom, and the packages wrapped in blue paper are packed in boxes, while those in brown paper are conveyed to the packer and packed in barrels. To obtain a superior quality of starch, the corn must first be properly steeped, fequlring skill and experience on the part of the operator. To secure starch from corn in paying quantities it must on .properly ground. The next important point is in the sjeving. The smallest hole in the sieve will admit impure matter, which it is hard to eliminate. Particular attention is required in the precipitation of the starch on the inclined plane. In the dry-room great attention must be paid to the temperature. One too high will produce a scorch, and one too low a mold.—Hot* *t» Budget* and discuss their affairs, air their opinions without let nr hinderanoe. and exchange experiences.

A witticism at breakfast would be almost as much out of place as a bowl of punch; it would not harmonise with the severe simplicity of coffee and buttered toast; like claret, the mot should follow the soup, and prepare the mental appetite for the heavier intellectual repast Dinner means relaxation, n festival and dress-parade; it is a panacea which will establish all the conditions of health that the perplexities of the workaday have put out of balanoe; it has its aesthetic aspect, and is as essential for the well-being of society as libraries and colleges, picture-galleries and musieales.

The sua is the life of ns all; it keepe the world going. All terrestlal energy is but solar energy at second hand. I will not discuss the distance of the sun. its dimensions, etc., and its methods of ascertaining them, although-! mtghtr make a very interesting lecture from that point of view, but I will begin at once by stating a few facts, which are essential to an understanding of the sun's constitution. In the first place. then, the size of the sun is something enormous—absolutely beyond our power of conception. It is a great ball about 860,(fc 0 miles in diameter, or 110 times the diameter of the earth. Perhaps that means nothing to you; but just for a moment imagine yourself in the center of the sun, if it were possible for you to live there. Suppose theearth were placed in the center of the sun, where would the moon come? "WhyTIt"wouRTnbe only"a Tltfe" more than half way to the solar surface. If the earth were at the center of the sun. the moon would circle around the earth about half way from the center of the sun to its surface. The radius of the sun is about 430,000 miles, and the distance of the moon from the earth is only 240.000 miles: so that if we lived in the center of the sun its shell would make an admirable sky for all the lunar motions, Next the sun is about a million and a quarter times the bulk of the earth. Take 1.300,000 earths and a»ll them into one ball, and it would make a sphere about the size of the sun; but the sun is not correspondingly massive, for it is only about 230,000 times as heavy as the earth. It follows, of course, that it is not so dense as the earth; it if only about one-quarter as dense, or a little more than the density of water. **-••-•» PINNER. A freest Which Meoa. Retoxattbo Hospitality. Perhaps there is no more popular daily repast than the dinner, whether it bo the day-laborer's simple stew or corned beef and vegetables, or the millionaire's elaborate refection of interminable courses and wines, to'which every tone has contributed, whether served In delf and pewter or in "blue china11 and Venetian glass. So true is H that duner no less than music "hath power to soothe the savage breast," it U undeniable that there are people of whom It to not safe to ask a favor till attar that ha'cyon hour, which has a enagto potenoy to ohaoge the whole dlsposition of many, for the time; to impart generous impulses aid a glow of infinite good-nature, partly, no doubt, because it increases the circulation. On* eah make shift to omit breakfast, and consider supper a superfluity on a pinch; but dinaer seems to be the natural and reasonable expectation and demand of the human heart as well as of she human stomach.

Its power of attracting bodies Is very great, of course, became its mass is so enormous.

KANSAS CITY, MO., May 12.—Shortly belore noon yesterday n violent wind-storm, accompanied by hail and followed by torrents of rain, fell suddenly upon the city, demolishing the eourt-houao, the Lathrop School, the Third street overalls factory, wrecking a span of the great iron bridge and the water-works, damaging many buildings, and cairying widespread death and destruction in its track. As far as can now be ascertained, twenty-nine persons were killed instantly or have since died of their injuries, and twenty were wounded, numbers of them so V»adly that death is Mkely to follow .within a few hours. Many of the school.,. children" who the falliug ^>allH building aud horthe heavy timbers and broken iron work that crashed down upon them as they sat terrified at their desks, while others are young women employed at the overalls factory, where, of twenty girls at work at the time the storm began, four were taken out dead and the others are dangurously hurt. At the school-house fifteen children were killed and thirteen others more or less badly injured. At the court-houBethree were killed aud four were wounded. At the overalls factory seven were killed und fourteen wounded. At Smith & Moffatt'a spice mills four were killed. At the United State's Engineer's office four were injured. Total killed, twenty-nine; wounded, thirtyfive. It is probable that the list of killed and wounded will not be completed for a day or two, when the missing ones are accounted lor. Several of the injured were probably,carried away without names be-, ing reported. The loss on property can not be stated with nny defimteness, being chiefly in small and numerous amounts. Following are some of the estimates made: On the bridge, $30,000; on the court house, $20,000; on. the overalls factory, $10,000; Smith <fc Moffatt, stock, $12*000; building, owned by Frank Oglesby, $45,060; on the schoolhouse, $10,(X)0. " There was much 3amftge in the aggregate t o partly finished buildings. Twenty-five small houses in process of erection in the southeastern part of the city were blown down. The Central Presbyterian Church, §ighth street and Grand avenue, was damaged*to' the extent of $2,000; the German Catholic, at Ninth and McGee streets, $1,200. Two stained-glass windows of the First Congregational, on Eleventh and McGee, were blown in; loss, $600. Locust and Humboldt schools were damaged to the extent of $1,200. A row of houses being ; built at Eighth and Cherry were damaged over $iJ,000. On tho Kansas City sewer-pipe factory, partly demolishedQthe loss is $10,000. Yates' Ice Company stabloa, nt. tho foot of Broadway, were wrecked, with a large number of similar casualties with equal or smaller losses also reported. The total damage is roughly estimated at $150,000, a portion of which Is covered by storm insurance. The storm-clouds began to gather over the city about half-past ten o'clock, and descending rapidly broke in terrible bursts of wind and rain that swept all lighter objects before them. The darkness was—almost likenight. The clouds seemed to graze the roofs of tho highest buildings, and poured out their torrents of water in apparently solid masses for a time. Tho storm struck the city in full force about 11:20 and raced for half an hour. The streets were running rivers of water, carrying boxes and signs and other similar freight, blown from the buildings or swept up by .hospital >atien conless Inju d o n the 16th that a free treatment of hydrophobia ur plan would soon ew York City, hksn swept over the region early on the morning of nearly every thing in its path,-Wflng two persons and seriously injuring fifteen others.

In the He-use a bill was passed to establish a nub-'treasury at Louisvilhv Xyn and the bill for the ap. pointrhent of a commission to inspect IueUan affairs was considered, the flood. A number of vehicles/were overturned, and in numerous instances drivers abandoned their horses to Jrheir fate and sought refuge in stores and'houses. Some hail accompanied the storm, but the fall was not great. / The Lathrop school/building occupied a prominent site at th/corner of Eighth and May streets. The Kiulding was surmounted bvsa tower, which for some time had been considered/unsafe. It had been twice condemned, orice within a few weeks, but no action b/nd been taken in the matter. Yesterday morning the building was crowded/With children, many of whom .vent nearly frantic with grief over the appalling darkness and the stillness which preceded the/tempest. The wind swept midway a^ress Broadway from the West and eeerned to concentrate its force in a deferent upoui the tower, which yielded with a crash, and, carrying down the heavy bell, plunged through the intervening floors to the basement. The falling floors precipitated~ the terrified children t o the basement, where masses of bricks and beams crushed them to the ground and buried them from view. When the gale had subsided the work of rescuing was undertaken by eager hands. Owing to the prevailing excitement the first work was not very effective, bat the fire depart^ ment and police soon arrived, and ah organised search was commenced. T'iie dead and wounded were taken out' as quickly as possible and carried to t;he naiutorium adjoining, which was turned into a hospital. Here the parents and friends of—the„ little ones soon gathered, each searching for his own, and uttering heartrending cries as they recognized in the maimed and bleeding forms those whom they loved. Many heroic scones were enacted during the rescue, and the wounded children seemed often to have greater control of themselves than their elders. One little girl, halj buried in the debris, over whom the rescuers were busy, begged them to leave her and help a boy beside her, l>ecause, she said, he Was only six years old. The scenes in the natateriuin as the littlo ones were brought in and laid upon improvised cotsj tho dead placed together upjurone Hide, were pitiful beyond expression. Filteen dead were taken out during tho day and their bodies sent to tho houses of sorrowing families. At 110 West Third street stood a threostory brick building in the middle of the block, the third floor of which was used as an overalls factory, conducted by Hoar brothers; the first and second floors by the Graham Paper Company. In the factory were about twenty-five employee, chieflv girls. When tho storm broke out they started for the cellar. The buikling" fe.1 with a crash, being raxed entirely to» tho earth, and most of the uffrighted girl* were caught In the ruins. Seven have been taken out dead, a nutuher of others are wourded, and somj are still missing. o Tbe county court-house stands at Second and Main streets on the hill expoaed to w aids froui tho north and west. Th« building was erected nearly twenty year*' ago for hotel purpoHSS, but when completed was purchased by the county for $200,000 and converted into a court house The building has always been considered rather unsafe, and the roof has frequently suffered injury from high wiads. The storai struck thonorbhnest corner, blowing in thereof and the greater portion of the walls of the third and fourth stories. The south wall, at the east end; was blorvn into the street and threo persons weie caught aud killed. All others succeeded in getting out of the building alive. Tbe jail is located in the basement of the building, and that portion escaped injury. Judge Stover had been holding court on the third floor and had adjourned just before the storm deeoended. A-portion of the roof in fulling struck the chair the judge had just vacuted. Across thfi street, on the northwest corner of Second and Main streets, stood a two-story brick building erected iu 18t>* by the Santa Fe Stage Company, one of the oldest buildings in the city, from which* the stages formerly were started across the plains in the stage-couching'days. The building has of late years been occupied by the United State* engineers. Adjoining thut on the west wha. a three-story brick coffee and spice mill, owned by Smith & Moffatt. This building was demolished, and, falling over upon the adjoining one, wrecked it also completely. Frank Smith, the senior pnrrtner of t h e firm, was taken bleeding from the ruine and died in a short time. Three others.. • were killed. Mr. Moffcitt was badly hurt and three employes were taken out badlybruised. The second span from the north end of the bridge iacross the Mitwouri, oppoaitethe city, was blown into the river, the piers being left apparently uninjured. A great number of telegraph wires were carried down with the broken span. The-, bridge is owned by the Hannibal A St- Joseph Company, and is used by that rond, the Wabash, the Ro<>k Island atul Kansas City, «St. Joseph & Council Bhiffs. The bridge-owners aay tmrt tliey expeeTl trlo^ repair it iu ten<lays. Meanwhile the railroads will make temporary arrangement's. for transporting passengers and freight. The storm is generally considered a hurrieane, not a tornado or cyclone. It was* a tremendous gale of wirvf with flooding rainfall. The telegraph and telephone wires were prostrated to the extent of t o - tal stoppage of business for a time. Tlie- Western Union had but one wire working out of the city isntil night, when several more were obtained. Communication has. been resumed with Chicago and St. Louis, Omaha and Denver, besides the South, but work is carried on under great difficulties. Meager reports are received here regarding vhe storm elsewhere. At Nortonvillo, Kan., the Times' special reports a total damage of about $40,000. The depot and fiouring-mill were wrecked at Parkville, on the Council Bluffs road. The. destruction at Wyandotte, Knn., will probably aggregate $10,000. At Leavenworth sevcrni buildings were unroofed; loss, $5,0()0 or $6,000.

There is no day in the whole year •which brings such anguish to the hearts of the citizens of New YTfrkCity who contemplate a change of residence as the fh-sjVday of May. Mrs. Lighff lace is a citizen of the great metropolis, and Mrs'. Lightlace is obliged to move, consequently that lady is the victim of care and anxiety. It is true that .she has moved before; but, unhappily, familiarity with the operation does not engender love for it, and in all her other moves she has had the assistance of Mr. Lightlace, and he has made his last move, with the assistance of the undertaker, and his sorrowing partner has to "go it alone/1 or with the meager assistance afforded by her little daughter Alice. It was very proroking that her landlord sold the — house over her head, and to a man who was so unreasonable as to wish to live in it himself, ami gave her notion to • evacuate the premises by the 1st of May. Now Mrs. Lightlace is both an ambitious and energetic woman. She says to Alice "what other women have done I can-do,--ami 1am—tie te. rmiiuul that your aunt Grimshaw and your •cousin Jemima Strang and your undo James and his wife shall not have it to say, as lknow they will if they get the chance, that poor Mary is so little fitted to light' the battle of life alone. I am going to show them that I am -equal to any emergency." And on the emphatic "any" Mrs. Lightlace threw up her head like a "war-horse scenting the battle afar off,'' and Alice looked the awe she felt over the astounding spirit of her heroic parent. So it happened that when Unele James came, as in duty bound, ttf'his brother's widow, and ottered his services to assist her, she said, with praiseworthy unselfishness, as she laid her hand on his arm in true sisterly fashion: "You are most kind, my dear brother, but I must /decline with thanks. I made up my/mind when my dear husband left me" (here Mrs. Lightlace wiped away from her eyes a tribute to the dear departed) "that I ,'. . would never burden any one with, my troubles. Each one has his own to )« • bear, and I must learn to take care of myself andi little Alice here. I shall do very welK" So brother James went away with an easy mind, greatly relieved that he might devote himself to his own moving with an easy conscience; and Mrs. Lightlace would have been pleased had /she overheard him telling sister Grimshaw and Jemima Strong and his wife / that "Poor Mary is a very sensible woman; has very good idoas of taking carer of herself." After many disappointments a house. was secured, and then the all-import- '?"''•"i(nt matter of an express-man with his ^ - , "Wagon was to be considered. "He must ; v* fee reliable and he must bo reasonable,'1 ",.\4ftid the woman of judgment If Mrs. Lightlace had been as wise as she fancied herself she would have consulted brother James on this all-important question, as any one experienced in the business of May moving knows the demoralizing influence of that fateful day oh the most trustworthy New York -city furniture express-man/ The only question which agitates him is ho' large a harvest he can reap fronv'ffie necessities of his^ellow-m^af'and he will compass seaTandlajxrto wring the last cent poSsft)le^-^ut/Mrs. Ligntraoe was toojwttimiirfo establish her reputa- " tion^s^ajKcnterprising and managing wopwrtito7 consult any one. She felt fre in her heart that these matters were very easily managed when the persons were "really efficient;" so she started on her search in good spirits. Her first surprise was at the astounding prices with which they confronted her; eight, nine> ton, »r}d up to twenty dolors a load they as"ked, with the mo3t unblushing effrontery. She was almost in despair^ M this rate it would take all she had to live on for six months to get into her new house. At last a happy chance, as she thought, conducted her to the stand of Paddy O'- Uourk,who, after some; haggling, agreed to "do the job" at five dollars a load. "Have you a largo wagon?'* asked Mrs. Lightlace. "Indade an I have that same, mum,'* answered Paddy. "And two horses?" queried the lady. "Why surely, mum; two as foine bastes as you iver set your two eyes on.'1 "And you111 be very careful? "Yis, mum; you may thrust Paddy O'Rourk iny day in the year," answered Paddy. "I refer you to Mr. Dennis Mulligan, of Brooklyn, a»' Mr. O'Shaunesay, of Jarsey City; they'll till ye that it's mesel is the bye that does the fair thing. The saints forgive me if I chute a widdv woman, an' a lady at that!" And Paddy lifted his ragged hat reverently while uttering his pious invocation. So the engagement was made. And after Mrs. eight lace had charged him to be sure and be on time at ten o'clock and Paddy had called down anathemas on his head if he should bo "the twentieth pace uv half a sicund 6ut uv the hour," the lady returned home with a light heart. In ht-r enthusiasm she said to Alice: "I do like the Irish; they are so full of heart! Now that poor rough fellow, only think of his fa-king notice of my weeds! His manner was really—well, ves, it was really tender." And Mrs. Lightlace wiped away another tribute to the late Mr. Lightlace. May morning dawped bright and propitious. Mrs. Lightlace said she ""felt as if fortune was smiling, and the spirit of the "dear departed was hovering over her." Alice and she rose with the "dawn and finished the packing of the last articles in the midst of the eomfortlessness of bare, uncarpeted rooms; for, with commendable judgment, the carpets had all been put down in the other house ready for the furniture to be nioved upon them. Ten o'clock crime, but no Paddy;—eleven, down at that stroke! -enough to plasthetany house yeMl iver own. It's the truth, murn; av I niver spake anither ward, it's a farehunit leddy ye are this day to make the ingagemmt wid me; there's not anither man in the three kingdoms, lit alone in Amerikey, that wuddent break ivery shiugle uv your her reappearance. This was permitted until they arrived at the entrance of the formidable-looking building on Sixth avenue, when Mrs. Lightlace, feeling her own heart quailing, positively refused to allow her young daughter to go further; so Alice retired to a store opposite, and waited big f arnichure into small "bits, an I amovin' uv it at the starvation price uv ioive dollars a load, an a leetle extra fur trates fur, the poor min that are ruinin' themselves in your sarvis." Poor Mrs. Lightlace! where was the spirit that was to support her in the battle of life? la the dust, at the feet of Paddy O'Rourk. Vainly she struggled against the insane conviction— that offspring of Paddy's oratory Mrs. Lightlace, it must be confessed, felt a quickening of her heart-beats as with flagging footsteps she mounted the steps leading into the court of justice. If she had not had a character to sustain she would have turned back then and there; but as that could not be, she confided her trouble to the tall policeman at the door. It was reassuring to mark his indignation at the recital. ''The villain! he exclaimed; which she was about to enter. It was a stranire sight to her inexperienced eyes—the immense hair filled with a twelve, one, two, and still no Paddy. Mrs. Lightlace developed first restlessness, then uneasiness, then perplexity, then indignation; and finally, in the midst of the direst wrath, a small onehorse wagon drove up to the door, and out of it leaped the delinquent Paddy. , "Goodness gracious!" exclaimed Mrs. Lightlace. " Gracious goodness! " chorused Alice; while faithful black Nancy grumbled: "Dat's what cunts ob trussin de Irisher." Paddy made his Appearance in the midst of the indignant crowd with the most perfect sang-froid, his rubicund nose more rubicund than ever. "Is this ten o'clock by your watch?", asked Mrs. \Lightlaoe, with bitter irony. "indade, thin, missus, en it's not raesel's to blame. Sure an it wuz the leddy what lives on Tinth avenue beyant the Fartith street. 1 waz ingaged to move her at sivin; en she t a u l d m e she had wan load, an a small wan at that; an, be jabers, it tarned oot to be three." "Perhaps you told her, as you did me, that you had a large-sizcS furniture wagon and two fine horses," said Mrs. Lightlace, with a cold tone, | and a glance which sparkled With -wrath toward the wagon and the poor tireil horse that was standing on two legs and resting the other two. "Faith, mum," said Paddy, with unblushing effrontery, "an isn't it. the foinest wagon in the city, the strongest an the roomiest fur the size? an sure an I tauld yo no lie about the horses naither, fur didn't wan uv 'em toomble down dead in the stall no later thin last noight? an wasn't I oot this marnin be the break uv day to hire anither? anJsn't ivery hide uv1 em busy?

I wouldn't take foive hundred dollars fur him. A valable animal he is, mum. But you musn't be afther kapin me waitin', av you plase, mum. I'm sorry to hurry you, but I've got three people a-cursin' me in as miny diflferint places now." What was the lady to do? She was obliged to move; she knew that it would be impossible to get another wagon now; so with tears in her eyes and bitter anger in her heart she let Paddy and his wild Irishman in among her cherished treasures, sending Alice and Nancy to the other house to receive them. Is there any sufferer who has passed through this trial, with inefficient workmen, who can not sup* ply a description of what followed? Mrs. Lightlace looked on with co pressed lips, as one after another"" of her cherished treasures wa*^battered and badgered, PaddyjKltfing n e r \\pS by his voluble conj|»iamts.

When she reached^ this goal of her hopes she found every thing in quite a settled state, and she gathered "heart of grace" as she drank the cup of tea voice of the judge, who exclaimed with startling severity: "But, madam, you are drunk."

Whin ye foind yersel ready to gie me the dollar, I'll fitch yer weights; ye'll foind mo at m^ stand." And away went Paddy, and before Mrs. Lightlace recovered from the shock, Nancy rushed in to say that the wagon had gone off with some of the things in it. If Mrs. Lightlace had been wise, she would have sent for brother Ja to help her out of her embarrassiffent; but, alas for the foolish^aflfbition of women! she couldinetfmake up her mind to sacrifice^rer reputation for independence^ nd strength of character; sjje^would win the battle herself, no one should know the particulars" of the struggle. It was too late to take any steps that evening, but in* the morning she would "have that wretch arrested as sure as I am bom." As nothing had been surer than that fact for more years than Mrs. Lightlace would have cared to acknowledge, we need not be surprised that the morning found her with no diminution of her determination. She took a seat at the breakfast table, and then ordered Nancy to summon a policeman; and that official presenting himself, she informed him that she wished him to arrest Paddy O'Rourk at once. She was somewhat dismayed at the intelligence that she would have to obtain a warrant at the police court before that could-be done. But even this news did not alter her de- 'termination. At ten o'clock she sallied forth- Poor little timid Alice with tear offher companion. She held her as in a vise, and whispered, audibly: "Niver mind, ninny: hould on to me; sich akserdunts will happen. I fell joust here meself r-ix months ago, andgot off with ten days." The judge never interviewed Mrs. Lightlace; Paddy O'Rourk was never arrested by that lady. The tall officer at the door had vision of a female flitting past him; and little Alice, watching, saw her mother rush down the steps as if she had lost her senses. Flying to meet her, she cried: "Mamma, what can have—happened? Oh, what can it be?" "Don't ask me, my child. Oh, that dreadful place! Your poor mother is disgraced for life. Go at once, Alice— go at once to that wretch, Paddy O'Rourk; pay him all he asks. What is money to such troubles as this?" With such disjointed exclamations the wretched Mrs, Lightlaee'pushed Alice into a street isarTand hurried home.

The commit: tee appointed at the last meeting to ascertain what the balance of the square where the school property now is can be obtained for are ready to re* port that it can be bought for $150 per lot—ot which there are six—making the cost of the site $900. We think this reasonable enough, and things considered, it is the proper place for the school-house site, and the only one that the majority ot the district electors want. Of course, we may be mistaken in this, aa it can only be decided by ballot; and if only about half of the district turn out to the meeting it may not be satistactorilly decided, although it will be legally. It is therefore the duty of every legal voter (which means •evory tax payer in the district, male or female) to coine out to the meeting and cast your ballot Another ques-» tion of importamce is: ^ow expensive a school bouse shall be built? Some say $:3,000 or $4,000, others $5,000 and $6,000, while some place it at a much higher figure. While we would very much like to see a $10,000 structure* erected in our village, we do not ad* vocate tho idea of bonding the district to- such a burdensome extent simply. tor the gratification of a few. A plain, neat and comfortable building is all that is required, and such an one wa think could be erected for $5,000.- It might no^> be very gandy, but could be cheerful, healthful and convenient tor the pupils and teachers who are obliged to spend 10 months of the year within its walls./. _ ' _ . . » » » . • .*• LOCAL NOTICES.

NKW YORK, May 24.— Bradstrwt's Journ* lt in its review of the labor troubles, says: "The grand total of industrial strikers for all reasons between April 24 and May 14 was about 250,000. The decline from that date to Monday last was marked, the aggregate on May 17 not exceeding 80,000 strikers for all causes. The report of strikes from cities and districts named on May 21 showed another heavy decline, owing in part to defeats of remaining agitators for eight hours in Chicago, and the practical failure of the bitumious coal strikers. The total number of strikes May 20 was 47,- G25, The totals presented during several weeks past naturally suggest an attempt to obtain an approximation as to the losa resulting. This loss can at best only be approximated. In addition to absolute losses of wages to striking employes and losses on business to employers during the continuance of the strikes, there remain, of course, indirect losses due to delayed orcanceled contracts for delivery of merchandise, of products, or for-the constructing of buildings. The loss from delayed or canceled contracts for merchandise and products, Tt is, of course, impossible to collect entire. The building industry has been shown by Briutetreei's to havesustnined indirectly in this way the severest blow of any, due to the unwillingness of contractors to take contracts for fear of estimates of cost being disturbed by renewed labor trouble?. The losses sustained through deferred or 1^ man of canceled building contracts have ,beeiT more thoroughly reported than illose in any other line at the cities where strikfci have been most generjalr" Details of losses-from strikes since M\j 1, at the jndtfitrial centers reported, have beeiu^--''^ CITIES.

CHK'.UJO, May 24.—Thegrand jury will re,- suuie its consideration of the Anarchist cases this forenoon. J t is expected that Captain Schaack will reveal to the jurors important .testimony against JAnw and. his associates, JCnirel, Waller and others. The captain--has a lot of Anarchist pamphlet* titfd correspondence, a large part of >-iiich he will lay before the -jury. He claims to be able to show a conspiracy of several years' duration among tho Anarchists, and to prove that Spies, Schwab and Lingg are intimately connected with the Eastern and European Aharachists. In conversation Captain'Schaak &nk&% "I think I can prove that the«r'was a well-laid plan to sack and bumaistricts in Chicago May 4. It woujd^nave been carried out but that the Anarchists lacked nerve and were unprepared for the vigorous action of the police. Men were told off to set fire to certain houses in the northwestern portion of the city, and others were told off to throw bombs into the police stations, while others were to use bombs at the meeting if the police attempted tp disperse it. I think I can connect every man of the Socialists now in pail with this. The houses to bo burned in the northwestern section of the city were to be selected indiscriminately. The purpose of the burning was to attract the attention of the police to that section, and to draw them away from tbe main points of attack, the Haymarket squar and the police stations. The early persal of the crowd in the square, theipremature throwing of the bomb, forSX was premature, and the determined resistance of the police frightened the would-be incendiaries and those who were %o attack the police barracks in detail." Being aHked where the witnesses to prove this conspiracy were Captain Schaack replied: "In the lock-up o / the police-stations; thev have confessed their complicitv to me." " / About noon yesterday two boys, who were playing b a l l / o n the Bloomingdale road near Robey/ street, made a startling discovery under^ the sidewalk. Their ball rolled under the walk and in looking for it they found adot of metal bombs rolled up in a large piece of oilcloth. They had. heard / « o much about dynamite that / u i e y were "afraid to handle the /mysterious-looking things. They m t / a s rapidly as they could and informed the police. Upon investigation, a 'egular Anarchist library was unearthed, and wrapped'tip in an oil-cloth were thirty loaded bombs. Those were made out of ten-inch lengths of gas-pipe, plugged with lead at both ends, and each one contained a fulminating cap and a piece of ,.fuse. There was also one empty bomb, two Bmall tin boxes of sawdust saturated with nitro-glycerine, and four long coils of fuse. It is supposed that the bombs were secreted under the sidewalk by some Anarchist who had them in his rooms and feared that the house might be s'earched by the police. It is not known who placed the bombs where they were found. ST. LOUIS. May 24.—As was expected, the return by the furniture manufacturers from the eight-hour system, which was recently inaugurated in their factories here, to the old ten-hour plan has resulted in the closing down of every establishment of the kind iu the city, rendering idle over 2,000 men. Judge Roger* Instructs the Grand Jury at ChloKfoThat the AnarohUt Leatlem Are Op*n to Iudletment by KeaNoti yf Their Abuse of the Right of Fr«e Spweoh to Such an Extent an to Cau»u the Recent Klotlug and Bloodshed. CHICAGO, May 19.—The cliurgo of Judge Rogers to the jjrand jury, or that portion of it which refers t o the recent crimes of the Anarchists in this city, has excited favorable comment all over the country, will bo found below: "We hear a good deal about the freedom of speech. There is a good deal of misconception of the .constitution of the United States and of the constitution of the State of Illinois upon this subject. I have copied the provisions upon this subject upon which persons rely who continually say that in, this free country men\have a right to say what they please. There is no such right. The constitution of the United States says that Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech or of tho press or the right of the people peaceably to assemble and to petition the Government for a re-' dress of grievances. The same principle is carried into the,State constitutions, and in the constitution of tbe State of Illinois, in its bill of rights, there is a provision that every person inay freely speak, write and publish onjotl subjects, being responsible for the abuse of that liberty. I refev to these constitutional rights because some meu are so inconsistent as to say that there should be no such rights as that yet claim the protection of that right in its broadest sense, and, indeed, interpret it to suit their own mind—that a man may get up in a public speech and advise murder, arson, the de^ struction of property, und the injury of people and their lives. That is o^wild license that the constitution of thj^'country has never recognized, any moje than it has been recognized in the worjtit'despotisms of old monarchical Europe. * * * "If I advise this company that the forean of this jury is* a man that ought to be hanged or punished for some assumed offense, and that advica is followed and a person aetiwg under the incentives that I Lave giyen commits that offense against your foreman, he is guilty of murder, and I who incite him to do it am just as guilty or murder as he. It is in the light of such, -^things as this that you have to look at this great question of the freedom of speech." "Mere presence at a public meeting or a t a private meeting, the more fact that a man is standing by an idle spectator, does not make him criminal or responsible. These things you should guard against if, in the investigation of cases brought before you resulting from tbe terrible scenes in the Haymarket, and you consult as to who threw a bomb and killed, or shot a pistol and killed, or ask who incited them to do that, you must be Bure that you do not present men who are guilty only of being attracted by a crowd ana being in that presence. I say that crimes were perpetrated on that occasion. They say the polfce came* armed, with military tread and a military array, and w-ere about to break up a able meeting. I say to you now thaiTthe law of our statutes and the ald^common law of England, that has--ijeeu brought down to us and has bejecrpi^eserved through divisions of ' the^courts ami through the books of elementary writers, all inculcate the prinj&iples that I have stated, and they 1 men who arise and talk and incite e the guilty men, and that it is the duty of the peace officers of a community to stop any thing of that sort.. I, as a magistrate, occupying in that position no other capacity than that of a justice of the peace, would have a right to interfere. Any officer, any justice of the peace, any sheriff* any constable, the mayor of your city, the police of your citvvnave a right to prevent the commission of crime. If tney know that there is an unlawful assemblage, and that men are being incited to the commission of crime, they are bound by their oaths and their duties" to the city to go and prevent the crime. In doing that they have a right to stop ,meu who are wildly proclaiming incendiary sentiments, and men who are excited in processioits by red or black nag*. -Tbt^se-a excitements, and they have a right tp^stop them. What js an incendiary speech b u t exciting men to crime 1 \Vh>r^iS' a rod of black flag in a processkJn but a menace and threat? It iauflderstood to b e / e m - blematic of blpjodTand tl»at no quarter will be given-J^iags of this sort oughj/not to be permitted to bo borne in processions in jtW+rcity. * * • / --r "When I refer to any crimes committed I do not mean to charge th-mi upon any particular people or nationality. Tho great body of people of all lyutionalities love geace and quiet and hate crime. It may e that there are more/people of two or three nationalities /involved in these troubles than of others, but I have never believed that as a people the Germans, the Irish, ttio Bohemians,-the S c a n - dinavians, the/Poles, or the Americans were engaged/in them as a body. "There is no doubt that every living man when he sees proper, if his contract does not bindyhim to tho contrary, has a right to stop/work. Bodies of men may stop work, inay strike—that is, quit work and demand an increase of pay. There is no violation of law in that But when they gj/oue fetep further and say: We won't rork and we won't let any bo'dy else -work, then they do wrong and violate law."

She was a few^ years m y junior—modest, estic—and this, I sincerely believe, her first attachment.

I was m comfortable circumstances, and on our wedding day I saw no reason why our marriedlifc should n o t be bathed in perennial sunshine. Such would probably have been the case had it not been for an unfortunate defect in my disposition. I may as well state here that, before our marriage, I had devoted n^-self pretty largely to that agricultural pup known as sowing wild oats.

Like many another, I had difficulty in adjusting myself to the changed condition of affairs, and theriLlhe^Jj^mbloJjQgjtn., .. We lived in a pretty little Queen Anno cottage, not exactly in the suburbs, but far enough from the business portion to be a pleasant walk. Our household consisted simply of Mabel, myself and a servant. I was then employed as a bookkeeper in a commission house, and ray duties were properly over at eight in the evening—rarely later than half-past Next door to our office was the office of the Morning Sun. After work I had fallen into the habit of playing billiards with some of the elerks for a couple of hours, by which time some of the Sun reporters, just off duty, would be sure to drop in. They were thoroughly good company, and had a wild originality in their dissipation, 'when they dissipated, that captivated me. Their presence was certain to mean an indefinite prolonging of the session. So it was that after spending all my evenings faithfullv at home for a month I began to drift back into the old routine and pleaded an increase of business to Mabel as an excuse for later hours. I. did this gradually. Now and then qualms of conscience would conquer force of habit, a n d I would be entirely domestic and devoted for several days at a £ime. Then I would blackslido and come home at one. It was not that my affection for my wife diminished. On the contrary, it increased. I was never so happy as when in her company, but I think it must have been a strain "of old Bohemia in my veins that drew me with a subtle force back to the boys. All this, though, was as nothing compared to the actual downfall that began one night in May. I recall it shudderingly, hesitatingly, awesomely. As I entered our gate an unusual light in the bedroom warned me that Idabel was waiting for me, and I shut my lips tight between annoyance and contrition as i looked at my watch and saw it w a s after twelve. I found her in tears. 4 4 0, Frank!" she sobbed, " I a r a very unhappy!'' "Not unhappy with me, are you, Mabel?" I asked. '•No, n o , " sh% said, "but unhappy because I am without you so much. I urn sure it can not be business that keeps you out at these awful hours. 0 , Frank," tell me, w h a t is it kept you so l a t e ? " "Well, Mabel," I answered, feeling it useless to resort to the old story, " t h e fact is I met afriend of mine who is something of a bore, and he held m e in conversation for a couple of h o u r s . " " W h o was he?"- "Bancroft," I said desperately, the first name that came in myi "a fellow named George Bancroft1 "What does ho d o ?

I went to slec blush to say it, with a sort of , satisfaction that I had done a thing. Little did I dream of the pice on which 1 was treading. A few nights afterwards, when I i late a g a i n / Mabel met me with the quiry: " I suppose you were oat that Bancroft?*' "Yes, d e a r , " I replied, catching" the straw, "Bancroft is i pretty gc fellow after all, Mabel.

"Why, has ho any money?" sj»e asked in surprise, "Yes, some," I answered, indefinite- po"siTtihoenn, hos hme ussat ibde, mofu sian gsalyv,i ng, 4¥ia*f~* - haps he is a better m a n than It!

Ichose ton place upon* the inspiration of mometit because it was a long from where we lived and consisted only two short blocks, so I was qujfco sure-Mabel would never find or peep* trate them. To my great relief afce did not pursue her investigation* fti|fther, but throw me into consternaiiett at the table next day by looking at nie wistfully and saying: \ "Frank, I am miite curioas abottt your friend^ Mr. Bancroft. Does b e looklikja-you?" ^ N o ? ' I said, giving my imagination rein, "he is shorter and of light eeaiplexion." > "Does he wear a b e a r d ? " 1 "Yes, a full beard, cropped close, " W h a t color are his eyes?" Some foul fiend prompted me to s a y he was cross-eyed, and that one organ was blue and One gray. " H o w very singular," said Mabel with growing interest. " I should like to see~hira. Tell me about this real estate scheme." \ 1 felt that if I hesitated I was lost, and, laying down my knife and fork, t entered into a detailed account of a aeries of fictitious i n v e s t m e n ^ ^ o n t e m - plated by Bancroft andUmyself. I did not originally intejwt'to go so deep, but her questionji-dfew. me out, and each successiverstep was necessary for pres-* eryjvtton. As I walked out of the front "gate I felt like a convicted felon. However, the mythical Bancroft was a convenient"personage, and I oon- :cluded-tfiat, now that I had invented hkifand put my foot in it, so to speak, I might as well use him to all possible advantage. Consequently Bancroft was pleaded night after night with great success, although the continued questioning of my wife involved me in a tissue of falsehood so monstrous that I was afraid to contemplate it. Bancroft became a piece of exquisite character painting. As the exigencies of the case demanded I endowed him with tastes,habitsrprejtrdiees-and -some-few principles. All tho details of his constitution were given the night he waa sick and I had to accompany him to his room and stay until two o'clock. Then it was that Mabel learned he waa subject to sudden and violent cramps, epileptic fits, and partial paralysis. I h e night he took me to a poor widow's garret and rescued hor from the v e r a of starvation Mabel wept over his goodness of heart, but made some SUSJHCIOUS inquiries as to the widow's personal appearance. Next night she abused him savagely because he g o t d r u n k a n d I had to stay with him and see, as a friend, that he did not get into trouble. About this time I became alarmed lest she should visit his supposed place of business to read him a lecture upon his habits, and told her he had left Reed's and gone to an up-town store. This necessitated going into all the details as to why he left, which I gave shamelessly. My conscience was in such _ condition by that time that I was less troubled over my fabrication of complicated lies than I was that I should cross myself in some of them. How intricate, how manifold and multiplied they were can be imagined when I say that at the end of two years Mabel waa still unsuspicious. She had, however, conceived a violent dislike, ^ growing into an utter abhorrence, of the, man. This was engendered by a peculiar turn which the fiction happened to take. One night the first pcneilings of dawn were showing in the skies when I returned home. I h a d not intended to st&y so late. 1 realized with sudden and humiliating force that I was a brute to leave a young girl alone, unprotected, anxious and afraid through the long n i g h t I felt ashamed, mortified, and above all alarmed, for I was well aware that a scene awaited me, With beating heart I entered the house. Mabel was in bed and turned her head slightly without looking at me or speaking. I felt intuitively that she was crying. At that instant ar<v ;>laja, any lie, no matter hqw black ' t h a t would have relieved t h e p o o r gir. sdistress would have seemed noble to me. So it was* with no p a n g of conscience that I sank into a chair and exclai in a hollow voice: " O , MabeL-iT y o * had seen w h a t I have seejKyou would be sick at h e a r t " " W h a t was^Hr"Frank?M she asked with InsjAfit curiosity, sitting u p im bedj his was tho effect I had calculated upon, and for a moment I said nothyours! replied. ing, as if too much overcome to sp3ak. Then in a low tone I continued: < "Bancroft is in jail!" > "O, Frank!" she cried, her eyes suddenly dilating; " w h a t has he done?" Again 1 was overcome with emotion; I had to have t i n e to think. "You kno#. how Bancroft is when he is drinking," I said tinaliy. " Y e s , " A'U*> replied, eagerly, "very quarrelsome ' "Exactly. Well, we were playing a game of billiards last night. I hadn't noticed that he was under the influence of liquor, but he got into a dispute with a clergyman, who was a perfect stranger, and took his billiard cue and-?' "Killed the minister!" shrieked Mabel. "No, thrust it down his throat and bjroke it off!" Mabel stopped her ears and I paused for breath. "Of course," I went on, "he was arrested and I went out to get bail for him." " W h a t business was that of " " " , i ' " asked Mabel, sharply, " F o r your sake, dear," I "Although no party to the affair, I realized how the linking of my name with it would pain and mdrtify my little girl, so I determined to sink my pride and ask some of my friends to go on Bancroft's bond to hush the matter u p . " "You dear, old d a r l i n g , " said Mabel, impetuously, "can you forgive m e ? " I forgave her, and, assuming^ the mien of a martyr, went to bed. From that moment, however, she regarded Bancroft as my bad angel, and hated liim with all the cordiality of indignant womanhood. Meantime Bancroft had commenced to h a u n t me. From being a naturally frank and open disposition, I became pretty naturally,vigilant and alert, fearful each instant that I would betray myself and realizing that each day put me further from the possibility of an explanation. I grew preoccupied, moody, morose. My nerves, quivering under the tension, were giving way. I looked scared a n d guiity. The very name of Bancroft was hateful to me, and when my wife harped upon him I felt that I should s o m a d if I did not get away. He h a d become astonishingly real to me, and I felt my personality becoming mixed and meshed with this myth—thiff m a n of airand nothingness in^-aT m a n n e r t h a t upset all my previous notions of identity. I almost believed that I had actually met Bancroft at some time, or that I was livi n g a dual existence. I n short, I was on the verge of lunacy when the climax came. One evening when I went home to supper in my usual perturbed state of mind there was a strange man at my gate. He had a keen, hatchet face and wore a slouch hat. "Mr. Frank N. Styne, I believe. "*& "Yes, sir." " I am a member of the city detective rferoe. The chief wants to see you at •his office." ! " W h a t for?" I gasped. " I don't know. You had better come d o w n at once." "All right," I said, my brain in a whirl. "Wait till I go in and see my wife." I "Xour wife is at the office," he replied with a peculiar smile. Shoeked~aird alarmedbeyondexpress jston. i plied him with questions, but 'he insisted that he knew nothing of "the case," as he called it, and hurried me along. The fact that I Had not the slightest idea what Mabel could be doing at the police headquarters redoubled my fears. The chief's office was approached by a series of passagewavs, at the end of one of which 1 saw, as in a field-glass, a room in which gen- \ were seated my wife and a stout tie man in uniform, whom I knew by sight and reputation. Mabel did not seem frightened, hut was very pale and wore a determined look. "Mabel!" I cried, as I rushed in, '•what does this m e a n ? " "Your wife," interposed the chief.

" I will. If you will make the most trifling inquiries you will find that no such person as Bancroft ever existed. Did she tell you he used to work in Reed's tea store?" "Yes, I believe she did." "Well, inquire at Heed's and you will learn that he never had such a man in his employ. The fact is, my wife exhibits at times certain signs of mental aberration. This imaginary man Bancroft is the most noticeable one. I had hoped* air, to keep this secret locked forever in my own breast, but these circumstances fovce me, of course, to make a confession of it to yon.

Origin of the Names of Some of the Best Known Race Hornet. It is rather curious to tnace out the origin of the names of manv fast horses as entered in the trotting and pacing record. We all know how Maud S and Jay*Eye-See came by their cognomens, but the origin of some of the others are only known to the older horsemen. Goldsmhh Maid, for instance, was originally Goldsmith's mare, so called from her owner, Mr. Alden Goldsmith, of Orange County, N. Y. Goldsmith, by the way, has a very happy faculty of bestowing euphonious or appropriate names on his horses. For example, Bodine, Alley, Driver, Huntress, Sister, Trio, the last three being sisters, and very fast. Rams, who was the first to lower Goldsmith Maid's record, belonged to a Long Island farmer named Conkling, whose son returned from college, and Was asked to bestow a name on the likely colt. With a reminiscence of his classical studies and "^""^o^nieTit^rnitulltoiriif'TlTe-horse's future, he chose the Latin ailjeotive signifying " r a r e . " S t Julien received his name from a brand of wine— baptized in olaret, as it were. Clingstone belonged to cx-Lieutenant- Govemor Pond, of Connecticut, who owned a large orchard of clingstone peaches, and desired as much success with the horse as he had with the fruit. Butterscotch belonged to an old candy peddler at Grand Haven, Mich., who made it one of the conditions of sale that the horse should bear the name of that sweet and stickv article of confectionerv. Some horses have risen to distinction under names bestowed upon them by mistake. Among these is Kibono. The owner wished to call him Cui Bono, but through the ignorance of the trainer and th6 entry clerk the horse's name appeared as Kibono. Having made a success under the latter appellation, it was thought best not to change i t Another horse was baptized King Pharaoh, but his trainer knew more about games of chance than he did about the Egyptian monarch; and the animal has gone as King Faro ever since. One horse, on account of infirmities, was to be called Deaf and Dumb, which the erratic spelling of his trainer shortened to Defendum. As it costs fifty dollars to change the name of a horse after it has once been entered, Defendum flourishes to this day. Changes frequently take place, how ever.

( • • • • r Method] of Getting; to IKareltl With the PreduetM of an Illicit Distillery. A man who was known to have a large Mountain (arm and extensive homestead ta the bills was observed very frequently to ride into the town of B - — ; and he never made his appearance without a woman, supposed to be bis wife, jogging steadily and uprightly on a pillion behind him. He was tall and gaunt in look; she Urge and rotund, and encumbered, as Is the mode of all country wives, with a multitude of petticoats. They always rode Into the yard of a man who kept a public-house, and before they alighted off their horse the gate was carefully shut. fiX was known, moreover, that this publie «m acted as factor for this farmer in the MICV-QC his butter; and so far as length of time things went on in a quiet and easy way, until one day it so happened (as Indeed it Is very common for idlers in a rery idle country town to stand making remarks on the people as they came by) tfekt the gauger, the innkeeper, and a 1 tQUiteen were lounging away their day, Whin the farmer slowly paced by, with his averlasting wife behind him. "Weli," says the squireen, ««of all thp woman I ever saw bumping on a pillion, that lump of a woman sitsvthe awkwardsst. She don't sit l i k e a natural horn crathur at alL And do you see how modest she is? What with her ttappeddown beaver bat, and all the frills and fallals about her, not an inch of her sweet face Is to be seen—no more than an owl from out-the Ivy. I have a great mind to run up alongside of her, and give her a pinch in the toe, to make old buckram look abou t her fo r on c e.'' Accordingly, no sooner said than done. He ran over to where the farmer was getting on slowly through the market crowd, and on the side of the pillion to which the woman's back was turned, attempted to give a 63y pinch ; but he might as well have pinched a pitcher. Nor did the woman even lift up her head, or ask," "Who is it that's hurting me?" This emboldened him to give another knock with his knuckles: and this assault he found not opposed, as it should be by petticoats and flesh, but by what'he felt to be petticoats and metal. ••This Is queer," said the squireen He now was more bold, and with the buttcod of his walkingstick he hit what was so hard abang which sounded as if a wasp made his personal acquaintance, and he immediately shut thb Bible and made a remark. It was proven beyond a a doubt that religion, though fitting every other emergency in life, is entirely inadequate when a wasp applies his business end to human epidermis. A Shocking- Sneeze. A lady in South Bend, Lnd., who had a false footh set on a pivot, sneezed it out the other day while feeding chickens. An old hen thought it was a grain of corn and swallowed it as Boon as it struck the ground. After a long cnase the hen was captured, beheaded, its crop opened, the tooth found, and restored to the lady's mouth, where it afterward helped U snasticate the old hen.

"Let my wife alone, will you, before the people!" cried the farmer. ^^ "Not till weseeVhat this honeslTwonian Is made of," roared the gauger! So he pulled and-'fhc farmer dug his heels into h's coif; to get on ; but all would not do. In the struggle, down came the wife into the street; and as she fell on the pavement, the whole street rang with the squash, and in a moment there was a fturgllng as from a burst -barrel, ami a strong. smelling water came flowing till filxjut., and flat poor Norah lay, there being an eruption of nil her intestines, which flowed down the gutter as lik" poteen whisky as eggs are like e^gs.

The State Department at Washington la Keetdpt of Official Information Regard* Rig the Selsure of the Adanu. WAHHINUTOX, May 21.—-Thp report of Consul-General Phelan reepecting the seizure of the D. J. Adams wan received a t the State Department yesterday morning. Ho states t h a t tho David J . Aduum started from Gloucester for Eastport, Me., and went from there fishing on the banks, returned t o Eaatport, and thence went to Digby baain. He reports t h a t Captain Kinney's business in Digby seems t o have been o! a purely personal nature. Ho did not go there to buy bait or trade in any -way« He was there four or live days without doing any thing. It was while on his way out of Digby busin t h a t a Canadian offered him the bait which he bought. It was, of course, bait which is used for deep-sea fishing. When the Lansdowne stopped the Adams Captain Scott did not seem t o have determined t o snue the Adams. Four vTstts'Wi made to the Adams, and much aggravating conversation seems t o have occurred before the Adams was seized. The Canadians did not seem to know either whv they had seized tho vessel or what tiny ought t o do with her. The Lansdowne took her t o St. John, N. B., then apparently recollecting t h a t she must bo libeled in the jurisdiction where, she was seizod, Captain Scott took her back to Digby, and finally, there being no good reasun why she should be kept a t Digby, to Halifax, where she was libeled. All this time no information WUB vouchsafed to either Captain Kinney or Consul-General Phelan aa to why the vessel had been seized. In fact, thetoinplaiut has never yet been received. Secretary Bayard submitted the report t o the Cabinet, and it was discussed to the exclusion of other subjects. The first step of the State Department will be t o give Consul-General Phelan the assistance of the best legal advice he can get.' The David .I. Adams will be defended in the admiralty proceedings by lawyers retained by Consul-Genera! Phelan for the United States Government. Meanwhile the Secretary of State has brought tho facts t o the attention of tne British (iovernnient, with whom alone lie can deal, with A request t h a t the Adams, vhich -tin- Secretary asserts had a perfect right to do what she did in Digby basin under our legislative arrangements with Great Britain, shall be released.

Ex-Alderman Jaehne, of New York, Con- Tlcted of Accepting a Bribe for His Vote to Grant a Franchise to Build a Surface Railway on Broadway, Sentenced to Nearly Ten Years in Sing Sing Prison—A Stay of Proceedings Refused. NEW YOUK, May 21.—The Court of Oxer and Terminer was filled, yesterday morning, with spectators anxious to hear Judge Barrett pronounce sentence upon Alderman Henry W. Jaehne, who was convicted of bribery in connection with the Broadway Surface railroad franchise. After Judge Barrett had taken his seat,'the district attorney moved for scntenco to be passed on, the prisoner. General Pry or, of Jaehucls counsel, made a motion for an arrest of judgment upon X\m- follow uig~g-rouuda;/, lUrst^thatJ-he indictment was insufficient in substance; second, t h a t the count in the indictment upon which tho verdict was returned is insufficient to suwta'in the verdict, and, third, t h a t because in law there can be no judgment upon tho indictment and verdict. Counsel also moved for a new trial upon A wo grounds; first, misdirection of the jury in matters of law, and because tho verdict WHS contrary to law and against the evidence. The motions were bot^i denied by Judge Barrett, and the counsel then took an exception to tho denial of each motion. Judge Barrett then sentenced the prisoner to nine years and ten months in State prison. After the sentence General Pry or began an argument before Judge Daniels on the motion for a stay of proceedings pending appeal in tho Jaehne case. After hearing further argument for and against the application, Judge Daniels denied the motion for a stay. JaCline was a t once started- t o Sing Sing. His sentence, allowing commutation for good liehavior, amounts t o six years four months and t.wentv-five davs. VERY SAD. Tho Wife of George H.

Canadian Authorities Admit That the Heceut Seliureit of American Vessels Were Illegal—An Interview with James G.Blalue—Secretary Bayard Takes Action. OTTAWA, Ont., M»vy 24.—Tho Government has received the official report from Captain Scott, of tho Lansdowne, of theseizure of the Adams. It confirms inevery respect previous advices received by telegraph. Tho fact appears t o be t h a t the vessel, even if it bo proved t h a t she was buying bait, can not under existing laws, be held answerable for such contravention of international agreement. Tho law providing for the seizure of foreign votwels for certain offenses is so worded that buy in? bait is not an offense under it. Hon. Peter Mitchell, ex-Miuistor ol Marino ami Fisheries, who prepared the legislation under which the seizure was presumably made, purposely omitted the '"V'"H 1>f '""*• t r " m thp liat at offenses. believing t h a t bait should bo regarded as an article of commerce, and tho buying of bait as a commercial transaction. NKW YOHK, May 24.—A Bar Harbor special to tho Jlttruhl sayB: Mr. James G. Blaine accompanied by Mrs. Blaine returned here Friday evoniug. Mr. Blaine said in an interview: '"The fisheries question resolves Itself to a matter of fact. The fishermen of the United States ought to have the privilege of fishing on any portion of the coast and the adjacent islauds. The Government of the United States should demand—I say demand—a return"- to the terms of the treaty of 1783, when the peace and separation between tho mother country and the successful rebellious colonies were arranged and legitimatized. The treaty gave tho Unite4 States the same right ana privileges as regards the fisheries that the residents of tho colonies enjoyed prior to the Revolutionary War. These rights enabled the citizens of the United States to fish wherever they chose on the coast of the provinces of Now Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland. The act of war between two nations abrogates all treaties, and the British Government made such a claim after the war of 1812, when the pernicious treaty of 1818 was formulated. The treaty of 1<S3 has never been legitimately set aside. The treaty of 1783 was not between two mutually acknowledged nations, but between two portions of the same country. The treaty gave both to a nation and fixed the future status of a nation. Thertgtfts thus given a nation < on the occasion of its creation are not to be abrogated by subsequent treaties unless national existence is wiped out entirely. Great Britain raised the point because she discovered au increased value in the fisheries. The question should be settled once for all. The American fishermen should not be compelled t o s u b m i t to any further arbitrary interference or be left in a position to suffer a s / t h e y have suffered for many years. I think that England would yielu the point if it were pressed with all the moral force of the United States. "There need be no war talk. The United States, if their Government asserts itself properly, are too vast and grand a nation to resort to threats. A vigorous expression of the just views of the Government will receive due attontion from any foreign power, especially from England. ;-*You may rest assured that the United States have the right on their side in the whole fisheries controversy, and it is the duty of our Government to maintain those rights." WASHINGTON, May 24.—In reply to a latter -from Senator Fryeoh-the-subjcc-t-of the action taken by the Govern in cut regarding. the fisheries troubles, Secretary Bayard says Hteps have been taken to ascertain all th« facts, and instant representations have been made to the British Minister to call to account the Collector a t Digby for what he considers a gross breach of the commercial rights of a citizen of tho UJ States. Tho Secretary continues: "The lata reprehensible actionof the Canadian officials in relation to American fishing vessels has occurred in remote localities without facilities for postal communication, and consequently there has been dolay, regrettable, but unavoidable, in receiving Consular reports. But your assumption 'that this department is giving the matter such consideration as its importance demands' will, I believe, be fully sustained when the proper time arrives for 'publication of thw action." PORTLAND, Me., May 24.—A special meeting of the city government was held Saturday evening to consider the seizure by the Colonial Government of tho schooner Doughty. Mayor Chapman presided. Resolutions were adopted condemning the action of tho Canadian Government and. urging tho President and Congress to take the matter in hand, and threatening retaliation if not speedily adjusted, were adopted unanimously. * • * '—- GENERAL DURBIN WARD DEAD. A Noted Ohio Democrat Expire* «t His Lebanon Home— HU Career. LEBANON, 0., May 24,—General Durbin Ward died at. 2:30» o'clock-'Saturday utternoon'. General Ward went to Chicago on legal business about'' six weeks ago, and returned suffering with acute rheumatism. Four or five days ago ho left his bed and room and felt so much bet tor that he abandoned his heavy winteruuderwoar. This, it is believed, brought about almost immediate relapse. A disease of tho kidneys, long dormant, developed rapidly, and hastened his demise. [General Ward was a native of Kentucky. He was born at Augusta. February 11, 1819, but removed to this city while young. Ho studied law under Judge Smith and Tom Corwin, and became a partner of the latter. In 1845 he was elected Prosecuting-Attorney and served six years. In 1852 and 1853 he was a Representative from Warren County, in the first Legislature held under the present constitution of , Ohio. On retiring from this office he established a law office at Cincinnati, where he has since had a lucrative practice. About 1865 he abandoned the Whig party, and has since acted with the Democracy. He has been favorably mentioned for Congress, Governor, ana even President at the last Democratic convention. At the breaking out of the rebellion he volunteered, declining a Captaincy and enlisting as a private. He was soon appointed Major of the Seventeenth Ohio, talcing an active part in the battles of the Southwest. At Chickamauga he was shot through the body, and his left arm was disabled for life. He carried it in a sling through the Atlanta campaign. Having passed through the grades of Lieutenant- Colonel and Colonel in November, 1865, he was breveted Brigadier General for gallant conduct at Chickamauga. In 1866 be was appointed by President Johnson United States District Attorney for the Southern Distriot of Ohio, and In 1S70 be was elected Senator for the General Astern* hlv.l AMERICAN GIRLS. Why They Should Become Acquainted with the Intricacies of lluahiea*. Women are so sharply taking rank ia all tho avenues of labor, that the girl of the next period ia sure to be oa a level with mail in all his opportunities This enlarging the boundaries of woman i« of recent date, but it is as if by magie that she ha* filled in the fields, and as she stands aggressively before tho lust barriers wo huve a bit of counsel to give the girls who will soon come along as reinforcements. It has ceased to bo i\ surprise that women manage business enterprises. From the thrifty hosesupport factory in Waltham to the imme use reaper industry in Chicago, women are to be found shaping successful enterprises, and handling intricate financial and business details with all the contidenee and sang-froid of tho most adept of male;*, so that in no counting-room, ottico or stove is shu ineligible, and to but a very few of the shops or work-rooms. This much secured, the promise for usefulness is in any direction that her talent and ability may seek, with confidence tkat tho sex lines in America will only be drawn at manual labor. . The introduction of physics and chemistry into our common and high school studies, joined in by the children and youths of both sexes, is the step by which the girl may ¢0 into higher mathematics, and here, with her intuitive love for detail and trivial diver-- gences, she may be trained into the most intricate problems, and be graduated to survey, draught, engineer or invent, and thus become a more valuable aid in scientific and technical affairs. That in fabric designs and similar art work grirls have peculiar value ia confessed. Then why not in architecture and monumental design? And if here, why not fill a place with the mechanical engineer, and so bring this Painstaking business within her reach? t is not so-clear imf._ that the girl, now so important in all light mechanical work, will not in the future be found in our engine-room and machine shops. If the preponderance of this sex con** tinues, and the girls acquire the competency sufficient, there is no reason to doubt that auy avocation she may choose will not be available. Tins, then, girls, is our counsel: If your father is a manufacturer, acquaint yourself with his interests. Why aim your existence as an appendage? Why not be as vital and important as your brother? Marriage is a holy bond, but making a match ought not to be the work of any woman. Acquit yourself competent to master your father's or your husband's business, and the discipline of study and of work will be vour highest delight and secure von* greatest value, whether in the home, shop or office.—Boston Budget.

The native grass that covers the prairies iu these portions of the West where there is considerable rain-fall afford* excellent food for stock during several months of the year. It does not, however, spring up sufficiently oarly in tho season to afford good feed when animals are first turned out to graze. I t is also likely to become thin after it h a s been eaten "off close for several years. Many farmers who desire better pasturage than that afforded by native prairie grass break the sod, and after raising nax, corn and small grain on the land a few years, seed it down to mixed grasses and clover. These are cut and cured for hay till most of the clover and timothy disappear, when the land is devoted to grazing purposes. It> takes several years to obtain good pasture in this way and calls for a large expenditure of time and money. If the land is nearly level and the soil of the same quality, an excellent pasture may be obtained by subduing the native sod and introducing a mixture of improved grasses and clovers, and by giving it an occasional top-dressing it may be kept productive lor many years. A more economical method of obtftining a good pasture, however, is to introduce tho improved grasses and clovers on the native sod. The labor required to effect this change is small and the outlay of money is confined to the amount required to obtain soed. The ground continues to produce food for stock till the new fodder plants have obtained a start. It can be prepared for the seed by burning it over during ; the latter part of summer, a calm day being selected for the purpose. The heat will destroy the roots of the native grasses that are near the surface of the ground, and thereby leave a piece in which the seed can germinate. A scarifier or harrow can be empioyetHo good advantage to break the sod suffic ently to afford the seed to rest on mellow soil. But a small amount of earth is necessary to cover tho seed, and it should not be buried deeply. The seed can be sown on the scratched surface of the ground and the first rain will wash a sufficient amount of soil over it to afford the best conditions to secure germination. A very loose soil is unfavorable to the germination of small seeds. The grasses and cldvers to be introduced on a native prairie sod should be selected with reference to the character of the soil and the elevation of the surface. If the soil is of nearly uniform quality and the surface nearly Mat, a mixture of timothy, red-top, orchard , and blue grass, with common red a m i Alsike clover, will insure a most elegant assortment of forage plants. If there is a variety of soil*, however, and part of tho land is much higher and drier than others, it is best to try and introduce the kind of grass and" clover that -will succeed best on each-kind of laud. Rp.d.r.np and meadow prass do exceedingly well on somewTiat moist soils, but they are entirely unsuited to soils that are high ami dry. Red-top will grow in dry soils and on elevated positions, but it will have scanty ^foliage, while the stalks will be hard and wiry. Alsike or Swedish clover is most suitable for tolerably moist land, and it is • ^ • — —TheVew secretary of the Chinese legation at Washington is named Mr. Lang.

It will remain in the soil much longer than common red clover and wilfafford better food for stock. Blue grass has no superior for land abounding in lime, and which is moderately dry. It requires several years,+ however, for the plants to become of a size,to occupy tho land even when considcrable seed is sown. Once introduced, however, it will "remain in the ground for an unlimited time, and will afford more food every year. - Orchard grass is very valuable for a pasture. It starts very early in tho spring,'will stand constant feeding without injury, will produce more food than any other fodder ^plant-that requires' no cultivation, and is preferred by all kinds of stock. It will flourish in a partial shade, but is not adapted to land that is very moist or very dry. It is not a good grass to introduce on land that is likely to be required for cultivation, as its nature is to form hassocks and to make an uneven , sod that is very hard to break.. When inverted by the plow it does not. decompose like the sod formed by the roots of most grasses. Timothy, especially when mixed with other grasses. makesHan excellent fodder plant, which springs up early in the season. White clover is a very valuable plant for a pasture, especially one in which sheep are kept. As the seed is expensive, few farmers can afford to sow much of it.. It is desirable to make a little go a l o n g way. It is a good plan to sow a small amount of seed in a few suitable places and to allow the plants raised to spread over the adjacent ground, as they will by means of their creeping branches. If the droppings of cattle be broken up early in the spring and be scattered about, a pinch of white clover seed can bo planted on the ground that was covered by them and a good stand bo obtained. The grass roots that were covered by the d u n g will be likely to be killed, while the soil will be very rich. The plants produced on a piece of land a foot in diameter will in a few years extend over a large space. In introducing grasses and clovers into the nativeeod it is best to commence on tho side from which the prevailing wind comes, as it will aid in scattering seeds, when the plants are old enough to produce them, over the rest of the pasture land. Red-top and blue grass furnish, if they are not mowed, a large amount of seedjwhich is scattered by tho wind over laud in the vicinity.—Chicago Time*. i « a S tlffl - i .

A Frequently Underfed and Moat Always Overworked Animal. There are some m e n w h o ou^ht to be ashamed to look an honest horse in the face. N o n e of our domestic animals, however much they m a y suffer from neglect, receive so muoh abuse as t h e horse. We refer more especially to the work-horse, o n the farm and before the cart and truck. Carriage horses generally fare well enough—or at least as well as those having care of them know h o w to keep them—since they are o w n e d by well-to-do m e n , w h o take pride in their fine appearance and spirited action. But, as a rule, the poor worker receives no such advantage from the pride of- his owner. There are m a n y exceptions, but the number of horses that fall under the head of the abused is sufficient to establish the rule. Underfed, overworked, "poorly g r o o m e d and, often badly sheltered, every point in the poor creature is an expression of patient suffering. It is a painful sight to behold a horse with the sharp angles of its bones sticking out in all directions a n d the ribs painfully easy to count, t u g g i n g a l o n g before a tooheavy load, and the driver, with his feet hanging over the end-board of the w a g o n , constantly applying the irritating lash to keep the poor creature from dropping into a listless, droning gait; and sometimes a t e a m is so far run d o w n and exhausted that even the lash appears to make no impression. A t least, it fails to quicken the pace or t o a w a k e n even the faintest apparent recognition from the poor jaded beast. But the lash keeps flying through the air, all the same, and the sting of it must add to the sufferings of the stolid rack-o'-bones. This picture is not overdrawn. It m a y be seen in the streets of any city or large- village every working day of the year. T h e o w n e r m a y be in part excusable on the score of poverty, but his best excuse is his ignoranbe. For, if he did but kiiattLjt»^h/ could g e t m u c h more value in service than the,extra cost of feed out of his horses if he kept them in g o o d condition, while he w o u l d save himself the extra work and lame shoulder resulting from the incessant s w i n g of the arm in applying the lash. There can be no possible e c o n o m y in starving a horse, or any other work animal; for the available force in the horse is what is put into it through its food, and as true as the truism, "something can not c o m e of n o t h i n g , " is true, the owner can g e t no more out of his horses than he puts into them. T h e * Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals can do the animal world no better service than to adopt some'means of educating the ignorant owners of live-stock as to the best methods of feed-and care in order to secure the best paying results.—National Live-Stock Journal. FOOD FOR STO W h y S t o c k - R a i s e r * Slj-ottTdl P a y M o r e A t - t e n t i o n t o - T h e l r P a s t u r e s . As a rule, the tastes or preferences of_ animals are the best guides as. l a w h a t kinds of food are best suited to their development, and most profitable to feed. We mean, of course, the tastes of animals that have not been starved and have had a variety of food, if n o t a chance to select. An English writer on this subject says: "If you observe a permanent pasture w h e n it is moderately stocked y o u will not havo m u c h difficulty in picking out the worthless grasses.. Sheep and cattle do not eat at random; on the contrary, they carefully select their food, rejecting one blade of grass which they dislike, and selecting the next one which they like; the consequence of this selection is, worthless grasses run to seed, except on m e a d o w lands." This illustrates our m e a n i n g , when we say the taste or instinct of tiie animal is a good guide to us in our selection of food for it to eat. It also contains a valuable hint as to w h y the best grasses sometimes run out and the poorest take possession of the soil. I t indicates that an early and repeated m o w i n g of pastures w o u l d keep d o w n the objectionable grasses rejected by the stock, and that an annual sprinkling of the right kind of seed over the pastures would help keep up the presence of the more desirable grasses. Of course, it is not every pasture that c a n be mowed, but this does n o t militate against the fact that m o w i n g would be an advantage. Many pastures cun be m o w e d ; ,and cutting d o w n the rank, rejected -growths gives a chance for tiie tender and sweet grasses to spring up, as aftermath does in tiie m e a d o w after mowing. On all pastures it is possible to sow seed. We believe it would pay to devote more attention to pastures, keeping out weeds, discoura g i n g the development of the inferior grasses, and promoting the presence a n d growth of the better, more palatable a n d m o r o nutritious ones. —^National Live-Stock Journal. ^ • •» —John Bridgman w a s bitten o n the right temple b y a skunk while prospecting in Texas.

Prom the Repuhllcan. The clottiing market in Howell got a little rattled on Monday and prices went on a strike. McPhersons sold cottonade pantaloons at ten cents a pair and the bustling proprietors seemed to enjoy the benefit fully as much as did the delighted customers. An effort, which will undoubtedly prove .successful, Jwill b« made to have excursion trains run to Howell on the Fourth on both roads and from four directions. When Howell celebrates the people of old Livingston always look for R b\g time and they'll just about get it this year. Several school children found a door to tne Opera House office unlocktd last Monday. About 1,000 regular tickets, 1,500 special tickets and a few hundred complimentaries are now in circulation. It is needless to 9ay that they will prove valueless to the holders as they will be boycotted heuceforth and forever. Howell was decidedlv lively with confusion Tuesday evening, when the Salvation Army marched up and to "k posession of the crowd assembled to listen to the Whitney Family band. The army paused about twoL rods from the band and drowned out their music, to the amusement ot bystanders who witnessed the fiprht for supremacy. The T., A. A. & N. M. road is uettintf out a large quantity of cedar poj at St. Louis and expect to bej?«fDiii!ding their fences through"this bounty in about 30 day^r^ouflrh the law allows thenv^txmonths after the road is ln-ttfhning condition in which to perform the work. They will build a fivewire fence, with board top and cap, which is according to statue regulation. Delicate females, old people and children are always pleased with west's Liver Pills.

Doherty at St. Mary's church on Thursday evening last on "The IrUh' Race" was a fine affair, fully 400 people being in attendance - After a splendid opening song and eh rus by the choir Fr. Considine, in a few well chosen remarks, introduced Fr. Doherty, of Brighton, who, stepping upon the ro.s.trum, soon had the audience in a roar of laughter by his witty Irish >tories. Then, warming to his subject he told of the trials and tribulations to' which the Irish race had been--subjected upon their own native "Emerald Isle so-green," where their ble»sed St. Patrick had instilled into them the principles of Roman Catholicism and for which faith they .had since borne persecution^death a n d bahimmeni, but through all their oppressions they had still retained their loyalty to their religion and their faith. He-extolled their leaders who had fought, bled and died for the cause of Catholicism, and finally wound u p his discourse with one ot the best temperance lectures we have ever heard. He argued and plead with simple language anu illustrations tor those who • were walking in the -ways of intemperance to quit the disgracefulhabit and not to take that which would rob ' them of their reason, their manliness and their virtue.

NEWKIJtK, Editor and Prop'r, K N C K N E Y , " i • MICHIGAN BIDING ON A PASS. T h e P a t e of Mr. P e t t i g T e w , a T i m i d " D e a d - H e a d . " Mr. Adolphus Pettigrew was an elderly bachelor of a thrifty turn of mind. He was very comfortably .ofl' indeed, but lie never spent a shilling when a sixpence would do. and he acted on the principle that charity, in a pecuniary sense, begins—and ends—at home. Hut his meanness was notconspicuous, for ho was always affable and obliging when it cost him nothing, and he lived so quietly that he was not suspected of being rich. He was a timid, fussy little man, who was extremely correct in his notions, and prided himself above every thing on being a law-abiding citizen. Mr. Pettigrew passed the greater part, of his time at the club, whereby lie hat! ihe satisfaction of feeling that lie obtained full value for the amount ft-of his annual subscription. Among his acquaintances was a certain Captain Falconer, with whom he had been for some yeay<on friendly terms. For a long time Mr. Pettigrew had been very shy of this gentleman", w-ho was generally regarded as rattier a mysterious personage. Nobody knew how In; contrived on his half pay to array himself in the height of fashion, to live in sumptuous style, and to keep up the appearance of a man of means. It was rumored 4hat the Captain obtained a handsome commission on the business he introduced to a well-known West End money lender, and it is certain that he could always be relied upon to put young scapegraces in the way of obtaining the wherewithal to meet .pressing obligations. But there was no proof that Captaiu Falconer derived any benefit from these acts of good nature. He was a jovial, loudvoiced, rollicking, boisterous person, who was hail-fellow-well-met with every one, and possessed the happy knack of being able to accommodate himself to every kind of society. Mr. Pettigrew, Whose worldly experience was strictly limited, had only mistrusted the Captain because he seemed the sort of a man who would borrow twenty pounds without the slightest compunction. He never, indeed, altogether conquered this misgiving, but in the course of time—as Captain Falconer made no attempt to impose upon him—Mr. Pettigrew ended by responding readily enough to his friendly advances."—The fact wss~~tfa~at the Captain won his regard by the occasional gift of a theater ticket, a seat at the opera or a card of admission to some privileged entertainment. It was a peculiarity of the Captain's that he was always able to bestow favors of this kind. Mr. Pettigrew was by no means a recluse, and to go anywhere or see a n y t h i n g f o r nothing added real /est to his enjoyment. He therefore accepted these-little tokens of friendship from the Captain in a grateful and appreciative spirit, the more particularly as he Mattered himself that the Captain really had a regard for him. This idea, whethor correct or not, was certainly excusable, seeing that Mr. Pettigrew had never offered to make the slightest return for services rendered in any shape or form. It chanced at length that Mr. Pettigrew had occasion to take a journey to the west of England, owing to the serious illness of a rich ami^, 3xonT~whom he cherished expectations. He had known Captain Falconer to jfroeure a free pass for an acquaintance upon the very line tltttt he now wished to travel by, and he therefore ventured to ask him to do the same thing for him. The Captain, •whose good nature seemed inexhaustible, readily acceded to his request, so far at least as might lay in his power. He explained that k was not always easy to obtain a free pass on the line in question, but promised to use his influence, and seemed hopeful of the result. He was better than his word, for when he met Mr. Pettigrew by appointment on the platform of the London terminus on his departure h e pressed into his hand a pass to Plymouth and back. "My dear Captain Falconer/' exclaimed Mr. Pettigrew, fingering the document delightedly, " I am really extremely obliged to you." "So you ought to b e , " said the Captain, in his jovial way; "I had no end of trouble to get it, I can tell you. Put it in your pocket,''' lie added, rather mysteriously. "Ta! ta! oki fellow. Sbrry" I can't wait to see you off."'' Mr. Pettigrew wrung- his friend's hand and took q u i t e ' a n affectionate farewell of him. The pass was really a substantial favor, for the first-class fare to Plymouth and back—for Mr. Pottfgrew, like many other mean people, never stinted himself of luxury and comfort at a pinch—amounted to a very considerable number of shillings. He seated himself with great alacrity in a vacant first-class compartment, called for a foot-warmer, wrapped himself in his traveling rug, amL-jH£- pared for a comfortable journey*/ He was beginning to believe he would have the compartment to himself, when, at the hist moment, a gentlcma »rr>who had before looked in at the window and passed on, now presented himself again, and took possession of J he corner seat by the door. ^As he did so, the ticket collector appeared, and Mr. Pettigrow presented hjs pass for inspection. It struck Mr. Pettig.row.that tho oilic i a l , scrutinized the pa*} somtwhM suspiciously, arffl, upon returning it, looked at him with a searching1 glance. It is probable that the man merely desired to assure himself of the validity of the document aqd of the respectability of the holder. On both these points he was no doubt satisfied, for he passed on without comment; but Mr. Pettigrew was of a nervous and fidgety disposition, and he suddenly recalled to mind his friend's somewhat pressing injunction to him on. the platform to put the pass in his pocket. Without suspecting any thing wrong, but with vague misgivings, he now looked at the pass himself for the lirst time. It was apparently perfectly regular, but he perceived'with uneasiness that it was made out in favor of a Mr. Moss Levi. The letter-press stated that the reason of the pass being granted should be mentioned in the space indicated for the purpose, and this was idled in by the word "shipp i n g . " Mr. Pettigrew did not at all like the idea of personating somebody else, especially when he proceeded to read the very stringent regulations under which the pass had been issued. The fact that it was not transferable, and was only available for the individual in whose name it was made out, was repeated over and over again with painful persistency Mr. Pettigrew now understood clearly enough why the Captain had manifested uneasiness. Evidently the pass had been obtained by false pretenses, and by using it he was rendering himself a party to the fraud. Mr. Pettigrew had one of those excessi\; ely tender consciences which are indicative of innate cowardice. He was not the least concerned, on moral grounds, how the pass had been obtained, nor w^uld he have felt any scruple about using it if he could have felt certain of not being found out. Put he was appalled at the prospect of detection, and the danger seemed to his excited imagination imminent. The probability was that this Mr. Moss Levi, being apparently connected with the shipping interest, was known to some of the ticket inspectors on the line. The demeanor of the official who had already inspected the pass now seemed to him to have been unpleasantly suggestive of suspicion. It was possible that this man had actually telegraphed down the line to some of hhs brother officials on the route to look out for the imposter. A cowardly conscience is a remorseless stimulator of morbid imagination, and before he had gone many miles Mr. Pettigrew had convinced himself that his worst apprehensions would be realized. Scarcely kss disconcerting than the fear of detection was the idea of having to keep up the character of the person he was supposed to be. A fatal drawback to this Was that whereas the name of Mr. Moss Levi unmistakably indicated Hebraic origin, Mr. Pettigrew's nose was a pure Gentile snub. This was so manifest at a glance that the~fart"was alone calculated to excite suspicion of his identity. Mr. Pettigrew felt that he could not stand nst this insurmountable discrepancv, and that to attempt to swagger and brazen out the situation—if his identity—were—chal 1 en ged —- would ~hc~ hollow mockery. The consequence was that by the time the train reached the lirst station at which a stoppage occurred, he had lidgetcd himself into such a state of abject apprehension that his nervous and agitated manner was almost sullicient to betray him. When the ticket inspector m a d e hteappearance, Mr. 'Pettigrew, who had wrapped his offending nose in a muffler and turned up the collar of his coat so as to conceal his features as much as possible, handed up his pass with the air of a criminal. No wonder the official, after looking at it, favored the poor gentleman with( a long stare, which made him burst into a cold perspiration. - But this man, like the other, returned the pass without raising any objection, to Mr. Pettigrew "a unspeakable relief. As the train proceeded on its journey he breathed more freely, and even for a moment contemplated the possibility of reaching , his destination without misadventure. But his dismal misgivings were by no means allayed, and a very slight circumstance sufficed to arwuse them again. Erer since the start his fellow-passenger had remained quietly seated in the opposite corner, reading and d o l i n g alternately. He was a middle-aged man, with stronglymarked features and very bhrck «»yes and eyebrows. Nothing, being further from Mr. Pettfgrew's desire than to engage m conversation, and thereby possibly betray'himself, he had been well satisfied' to observe that the stranger seemed taciturn and uncommunicative. JBut whether it was that the last stoppage had disturbed the current of this gentleman's meditation, or that he had been struck by Mr. Pettigrew" s agitation, he now appeared disposed to be curious. He took stock of his unfortunate companion, who quailed in a most guilty manner beneath his glance, and presently he asked affably: "Goinw to Plymouth, sir?" "Yes,' gasped Mr. Pettigrew. "So am I, ' said the stranger; "in fact, it's my native place. Know mauy people there, sir?" Again Mr. Pettigrew was about involuntarily to give a truthful answer, buL remembering, just in time, the position of affairs, he hastily replied in the affirmative. "You are not Mr. Richardson, are you, sir?" inquired the stranger, insinuatingly. "No, sir, my name i s - Levi,"' replied Mr. Pettigrew, with agulp, being taken aback. This was eminently rash, as Mr. Pettigrew felt the moment he had spoken, since the statement laid him open . to all sorts of dangers. Instantly it Hashed across his mind that the stranger might be acquainted with the real Mr. Levi. The idea was too dreadful to contemplate, but fortunately the stranger made no sign. He might, however, recognize the name and turn the conversation on to shipping and mercantile matters,, concerning which Mr. Pettigrew was as ignorant as an infant in arms. To avert this contingency, and to check himself from rushing headlong to destruction, Mr. Pettigrew, in desperation, closed his eyes and feigned to sleep, which, perhaps, under " the circumstances, was the wisest thing he could have done. At all events the expedient was successful, for the stranger naturally relapsed into silence. Glancing, however, at him, after a mile or two, beneath his eyelids, Mr. Pettigrew found to his dismay, that he was still regarding him quietly and persistently. It was a trying ordeal to feign to be unconscious of this, and poor Mr.-Pettigrew suffered a martyrdom in the attempt. He knew that he made a miserable failure of it, yet he dared not face his companion openly, for fear he should resume the conversation, it. was a positive'relief when the next stoppage of the train distracted the stranger's attention, though Mr. Pettigrew was aware that he would again have to produce his unlucky pass. When the inspector appeared in due course, Mr. Pettigrew pretended to wake up with a start, and produced the document, Mr. Pettigrew was a-bout t o answer nervously in the negative, but suddenly recollecting that he was personating somebody else, whose name might transpire during the journey, he was seized with a veritable panic. "No—at least, I mean yes. Yes, certainly. In fact," he added, incautiously, " I ' m going down on business." "Indeed!" exclaimed the stranger, with interest. "Then I'm sure I've met you before, sir. 1 knew your face directly. You-aro often up MSd down titdi line, are you notr"' - but, in doing so»Jie contrived to drop it upon the floor of the carriage. In a moment the strangert who seemed to be on the alert, officiously pounced upon it and handed it to the inspector. But in the most natural manner in the world he lirst unfolded it, and Mr. Pettigrew perceived that he took the opportunity of glancing at the contents. The action occupied only a moment, but, nevertheless, the stranger evidently satisfied his curiosity. He leaned back in his seat with a smile, and looked at Mr. Pettigrew with increased interest. Thii episode made Mr. Pettigrew more uncomfortable than ever, and, upon receiving the pass back again, he hastened to resume his fictitious slumber. But he could not resist peeping furtively at his companion from time to time, and he grew more and more convinced that the stranger regarded him as an impostor. The consequence was that he worked himself into such a fever of nervousness and apprehension that at length he could stand it no longer. He resolved, therefore, to got rid of the pass at all hazards, even at the sacrifice of having to pay the full fare. Bet- ~ter -this- t h a n n t n t h e risk of-the -ptmsand penalties to which detection would subject him. Watching his opportunity, Mr. Pettigrew, when the stranger had turned aside for a moment, suddenly let down the window, and crushing the pass into a ball in the palm of his hand, be cast it forth into space. But his movements, quick as they were, did not escape the attention of the stranger, who witnessed the whole maneuver. He glanced at Mr. Pettigrew in such a significant manner that the unhappy gentleman felt bound to explain. "A most awkward circumstance!" he murmured. " I was just opening the window when my pass—" "Dropped o u t ? " interposed the stranger, in a sympathetic tone. "Yes, dropped out," said Mr. Pettigrew, very red in the face. "Dear me! How did you, manage it?" inquired the stranger,* " I don't know. I had it in my hand, and the draught was s t r o n g / ' said Mr. Pettigrew, hastily. "However," he added, with more assurance, "it can't be helped. I must pay, that's all." "Pay. Oh, no! I shouldn't think of such a thing if i V e r e y o u , " returned the stranger, briskly. "You've lost your pass by an accident, but you've Only got to say so. I saw it and will give my testimony." "You are very kind," said Mr. Pettigrew, not quite knowing whether to feel grateful or n o t After all there was no reason why he should pay the expensive railway fare if he could get off doing so, and now that the tell-tale pass had disappeared in the breeze, there seemed_no fear of detection. If the official at the next station declined to accept his statement about the loss of the pass, he would only be called upon to pay, and this he was now reconciled to do. Considerably easier in his mind, Mr. Pettigrew awaited the result of the experiment With tolerablo equanimity, and ev6n ventured to exchange ideas with' his companion on the subject of the weather. When the next stage of the journey was reached and the inevitable ticket .inspector again presented himself, Mr. Pettigrew told his story glibly enough. "Of course, if I must pay, I miTst." he concluded, putting his hand reluctantly in his pocket. stranger before the startled Mr. Pettigrew could speak. "This gentleman is Mr. Moss Levi, the agent of the Silver Crescent Steamship Company. You only have to telegraph to London and ask for instructions. Tell them to wire reply to Plymouth, and lock us in till we get there. The gentleman is well known to your colleagues there." The inspector, civilly enough, acquiesced in this arrangement, and the stranger glanced at Mr. Pettigrew for his approval. But Mr. Pettigrew had turned very pale, and looked the very picture of dismay. The plan suggested would have been excellent if he had been the person lie pretended, but as it involved the necessity of his being identified by some one who knew Mr. Levi, the drawback was at once apparent. In fact, now that it was too late, Mr. Pettigrew realized his folly, and cursed the stranger's well-intentioned interference. In the midst of these agonizing reflections, Mr. Pettigrew's glance encountered that of his companion, who .seemed, from his 'manner, to divine what was passing in his mind. " 1 suppose you realize, sir, the awkward fix you have got yourself into," said the stranger, sharply. " I li—what do von mean?" gasped Mr. PerfigreV " You know very well what 1 m e a n , " returned the stranger. " Y o u said 3011 were Mr. Moss Levi. It is a lie—an impudent imposture. I am .Mr. Moss Levi." " Y o u ? " ejeculatcd faintly. " Yes, sir. It is not have been personated -upon this line.' The directors have determined to prosecute, and the result of my message will be that vou will be taken into custody at Plymouth." "But—but I had a p a s s , " cried Mr. Pettigrew, transfixed with horror and consternation. "A forgerv," said Mr. Levi, with an unpleasant laugh; "you wisely got rid of it. However, that won't help you much.1 ' " Good heavens! you are joking!" murmured Mr. Pettigrew, wiping the perspiration from his brow with a trembling hand. " Y o u ' l l see," said Mr. Levi, ominously. " B u t , sir, it is a mistake. I will give my real name and address. I can bring any evidence you like of my respectability," cried Mr. Pettigrew, in a frenzied-manner. " I can not anticipate the investigations of the police," said Mr. Levi, coldly. "As for your respectability, at all events you are traveling without a ticket, on pretense of being somebody else, I h e penalty is a month, I believe," he added, in a matter-of-fact tone. This Cold-blooded way of putting it was more than Mr. Pettigrew could bear. He yielded to a veritable panic, and almost fell upon his knees, imploring Mr. Levi to assist-him. "The matter is not in my h a n d s , " said Mr. Levi,, apparently touched by his companion's distress. * "I will pay any thing—any thing!" cried Mr. Pettigrew, wildlv. Nonsense!

While he was sitting reading his brief, several careless lawyers walked over his wellpolished shoes. He looked down at the shoes with a sigh, and moved kis chair buck to the siderof-^irother' gentleman,; to whom he said: "I've reached that time of life wrhen I want to get somewhere where I won't be stepped upon. That's my ambition."~-V. Y. Sun* Mr. and • 'A hundred pounds?" queried Levi. "Eli?'' exclaimed Mr. Pettigrew with a start. "Give me a check for £100, and I will assist you to escape," said Mr. Levi, with a sudden change of manner. "Have you your check-book h a n d y ? " " Y e s , " said Mr. Pettigrew, scarcely understanding. "Here are pen and ink," said Mr. Levi, producing a writing-ease. " I will undertake to square the police and hush the matter u p . " "JJut how?" inquired Mr. Pettigrew, staggered by the amount demanded, yet too terrified and agitated to demur. " I have a ticket,' said Mr, Levi, producing it. "Take it, and get out at the next station—the one before Plymouth. Leave the rest to m e . " Mr. Pettigrew was literally terrified into complying with these terms. He had no time for reflection, even if he had been capable of doing so. The train was already slackening speed, and before he knew where hewas, he found himself safely landed on the platform of the station short of Plymouth, having paid the substantial sum of £100 as the price of his freedom. When he came to think the matter over calmly afterwards, he began to suspect that he had been swindled. He accordingly went on to Plymouth, and the next day he made inquiries at tho station, but they knew nothing whatever about the matter, as every passenger by the train he mentioned had delivered up a ticket in the ordinary way. it was clear then to Mr. Pettigrew that, although his enterprising fellow-traveler had provided him with a ticket in the manner described, he had takeu the precaution to retain one for his own use, which had enabled him to escape all unpleasantness. Mr. Pettigrew, on arriving at this conclusion, at once telegraphed to his bankers to stop the check;'tout he received a wire in reply stating that it had already been cashed. This, in conjunction with there having been no difficulty at Plymouth about a lost pass, so clearly pointed to a deliberately planned conspiracy that Mr. Pettigrew, in his virtuous indignation, did not scruple to demand an explanation from Captain Faleoner.JBut the Captain only laughed at him for his folly, and could with difficulty be restrained from telling tho story to every one in tho club; and to this day Mr. Tettigrew can not m a k e up his mind whether Captain Falconer was a party to the transaction or not.

It has been wrought out laborously and minutely; day by day throughout many years it has been carefully studied and improved, until it has reached the ACME OF PEUFECTION, and is acknowledged to-day as the standard of excellence the world over. The building of reaping machinery is a science which can neither be learned or prosecuted in a cursory manner; he who w<?uld succeed must commence early and conscientiously devote his entire time ier the best vears of his life to the cause—thus has it been with the OSBORNE MACHINES, in the construction of which constant attention if priven to the minutest details, all work being conducted under the most efficient supervision and executed by skilled and experienced workmen. The machine which we offer to supply the wants of the public this year is the NO. 11 OSBORNE LIGHT STEEL FRAME HARVESTER AND SELFBINDER— the most desirable, simplest in construction and lightest draft binder made. This Harvester and 'Binder has achieved a world-wide reputation. Its record is a grand series of triumphs. Commencing in Australia in January, it won first prize in competition with the Deering, Wood, Johnston. McCormick, Buckeye and Hornsby, and continued its triumphant march through the entire American harvest; and as a crowning achievement won first prize and special Gold iMedal in France, over the Deenng, Johnston and McCormick in July.

One-night, in the year 1782, a pJ urn bet e-f Bristol, named Watts, had a very profit able dream. He Imagined he was out in s shower of rain, but molten lead fell instead of water, and the drops were perfectly round- When he awoke, he wai struck with the singularity of his dream, and the Idea occurred to him that lead shot could be made in this manner. As s test, he ascended the tower of St. Marj Redcliffe Church, and poured molten lnad into some water below. -The result full} satisfied his expectation!, and he after wards sold the invention for a good round sum of money. lere It Comes From, ••Here's a queer thing, my dear," said McSwilligen, to his wife as he looked u; from the paper.

Fully 5,000 men are out of employment, and many of the principle shops and factories in the city are closed up. In many of them the employes were satis* fied with their positions, but the strikers from other shops compelled them to walk out. As was said to one party, "We won't allow you to work $o long as we are doing nothing." The proprietors of various shops and factories concluded to shut down rather than risk the destruction of their property by~the excited strikers. Fortunatelyno property has yet been destroyed, but the crowds of men and boys who compose the strikers are becoming more outspoken in their demands, and threaten vengeance upon any ot tb^e workman who return to thmr^oecupations before a complete'settlement is reached. MeaaWnTle some of the hotheads> mong the strikers are working em up to a pitch where the law authorities will be defied, as they have been in Chicago. It is asserted that the Knights of Labor, as an organization, are oposed to strikers, law-beraking and boycotting. Certainly it they are they owe it to themselves to shut the mouths of some of the blatant communists and anarchists who assume to speak for the organization.

If the government of the country is worth sustaining it is because it protects people in thrir rights as citizens. If it fails to do this it has fallen short of its duty. The right to stop work is enjoyed by every man, but the right to stop his neighbor cannot exist except in a country where tyranny and oppression make it possible.

New land, most of which is prairie in the Northwest, is plowed the season previous to cropping, to kill and more or less complete the decay of the roots, decay being a pre-requisite to facilitate the pulverization of the soil. There are a few exceptions to this rule. For instance, turnips and swedes are planted, on a small scale, on the sod of earljr broken land in June or July of the same season. Beans are also planted in some cases, on sod. The rate of decay varies according to the time when the land is first plowed. In most seasons the sod of land plowed in May and June, rots far more rapidly than that plowed between June 20 and the middle of July. In fact, it is considered injudicious, and worse than labor lost, to break up new prairie land after July 4. The prevailing idea is, that corn can not be profitably grown as a new and first crop; but this depends on the condition of the pulverization of the soiL If new breaking done betweeen May 20 and June 20, three indies deep, is cross-plowed the following September five inches deep, and given two extra harrowings—one just before freezing up in November, and another when preparing to plant the corn—a crop of thirty or forty bushels per acre can be grown, as I proved years ago on eight acres treated as described. The general poor success with corn on new land, is due to the poor preparation of the land itself, not to any inherent defect of the soil. If it is desirable to raise corn, the land should be broken between May l-r> and the middle of June, to facilitate the rapid rotting of the gross roots, which, m common with the top growth, are more succulent during this interval than later. By cross-plowing, instead of back-setting (turning the furrows back lineally is back-setting), the furrows are cut into twelve, fourteen, or sixteen- inch pieces, according to width of « plow used. The following mode may be adopted by new settlers in Dakota or elsewhere:* The sod can be crossplowed or back-set five inches deep in September, plowing once only. This A LIBERAL OFFER.

Yosemite valley has been a pretty expensive business, both as regards cash and time. With a private conveyance and a camping outtit one's expenditure of cash might be kept within bounds, but to make a visit to the famous valley by the regulation stages, and to put up at the regulation inn* on the excursion, has required a better-filled purse than most Californians can boast in these days. Indeed, it is rather curious to find out bow few of the people who live within, say, one hundred miles of the valley have ever been in it. All around me are people who have lived in this neighborhood for from_ten to in three the spec eager twenty years, and not one score "of them has ever seen tacle which draws hundreds of visitors across oceans and continents Of course, this abstinence on the p of the•foothiller is nbt altogeth«r^ue to the question of expertMreither of time or money. As^ar-gonural thing he could bundiej^-rfarnily into a wagon, throw in^sr-few cooking utensils and a stoc-k"c5f "grub,'1 and make a week's xcursion to the valley without adding a cent to his ordinary cost of livings and his habits are, not of that constantly energetic character that indicates a high valuation of time. No, the foot^ tiller does not go to the Yosemite-stniply because it is not ij*-^nim to take an interest J r u ^ u c h matters. If there were a^vtffy fat "hawg1' to be seen thereT that would indeed be a^-ttfmptatiori, but for scenery that sort of thing—pshaw! leave it for "them tourists'' and "city fellers!'' and "English Dooks and Lords" and such. In the California towns, however, there are thousands of people who would gladly visit the valley if the cost could be brought down to a reasonable standard. This is what the railway ought to effect. It ought even to bring down expenses to the travel from the East, or at least make it possible for many more Eastern folks who happen to be in California to add the ,valloycto their list of places "donc., , No doubt cheap excursion trains will be run from the towns along the line ,of the Southern Pacific road, with which thesrfosemite branch connects •at a station called Berenda (Antelope) •seven miles north of Madera, where is mow the starting-place of the Yosemite coaches. It is not expected that the .road will be finished in time for use during the Reason about to open, but twenty-five miles will be in running order, and as the stages valley-bound will start from the end of the line there will be a saving- of fifty mjles on the round trip. ItSuch a saving means a good deal to any one who knows what it is to ride (through the summer heat and dust clouds of the San Joaquin valley, where the stage ride is shortened. F»r this season the terminus of the railway will be at a station to be known, I bejlievc, by the pleasant name of Ray- ;mond, although to us foothillers it vflll continue to be "Wild-Cat Ranch," so (called because a former .occupant was •believed to have pursued the economica\ practice of feeding the inmates of 'his house on the nicat of the wild-cat ,4r lynx. - C o r .

Times. course brings up new soil, to be natur a l l y pulverized by freezing and thawing the succeeding winter; but the furrow slices, containing the mass of grass roots, are not much broken down or pulverized in this way, the harrows not working as deep as the ground id plowed. Two plowings in the fall— when the corn is to^ be planted in thespring— will, however, cure the trouble. The first plowing need bo only as deep as the breaking plow works, say two and one-half to three inches. Harrowing well, after plowing back, pulverizes this surface soil, also breaking up its contained growth of roots. The sod being plowed and well harrowed, plow again five inches deep. This course puts the rich vegetable mold down to a depth of three to live inches, where the corn roots readily reach it, putting two and one-half to three inches of rootlets or clean soil on top of the richer soil it covers. In this way, by efti work, fair to full crops of corn-Con be raked, There are two-reason? why corn does not gcnerally-dowell as a first crop on new huHh^One is that shallow broak- _^Trom two to three inches d e e p - does not supply pulverized soil of sufficient depth for the feeding roots; another is that*n working corn on new land, the half-decayed roots still find o t h e r s y m p t o m s a r e d e v e l o p e d .

The mofct obvious feature of the book pnblibhing seaf OH in London has been the abundance of shilling novels. Ordinarily, *n English novel in published in three volumes, though occasionally it appears In two volumes, a t half a guinea a volume. To the public this price is practically prohibitive, and the only purchasers are the huge circulating libraries, which are among the chief institutions of Great Britain. The senior partner of an old and honorable house, told me two or three years years ago thttt curiosity once prompted him to try to discover whether the general reader had purchased even a Bingle copy of a novel which had been fairly successful and o' which the first edition had been entirely sold. He succeeded in tracing to the circulating libraries every copy but seven or eight, and he said he had no reason to doubt that these seven or eight had al&o gone to the librarians. In course of itiuie, generally within a year, the novels of the leading novelists reapi^ar in a single volume at a price varying from six shillings dowa to two ahillings.—[The Bookbuyer.i. , , m — JtluKical Qnerie*.

Alter tho prayer Dr. Sunderland made the following address: "Marriage is honorablo among all men in that a man shall leave his father and mother and shall cleave unto his wife, and they twain shall be one flesh. It was constituted by our Creator in the first paradine. It was confessed by patriarch and priest, prophet ' and apostle. It was confirmed by tho teaching and adorned with the presence of the Redeemer, and has been honored by the faithful keeping of all good men and women since the world began. It is not therefore to bo undertaken lightly or unadvisably. but soberly, discreetly and in tho fear of God. In this holy state this man and this woman come now to enter. If any now can show just cause why they may not be lawfully united in marriage let him now speak or hereafter forever hold his peace." "If you desire to be united in marriage you will signify the same by joining your right hands." Here tho President and Miss Folsom joined hands. Dr. Sunderland, continuing, asked: "Grovor, do you tako this woman whom you hold by the hand to be your lav ful wedded wife, to live together after God's I ordinance in tho holy state of wedlock < I Do you promise to love her, cherish, com- ] fort and keep her in sickness and in health, ) in joy and in sorrow, and. forsaking all others, keep you only unto hor so long as you both shall live*" | President Cleveland responded firmly: "I do.'

The lady responded: "I d o . " "In token of the sumo." said Dr. Rnnderland, "let the wedding ring be passed." The President then placed the wedding "ring upon the bride's linger. Dr. Sunderland then pronounced the sanction, saying: •'For as mtieh as Grovor and Frank have hero agreed and covenanted to live together after Ged's ordinance in the holy state of wedlock, anil bawe-confirmed tho same by giving and taking a 'wedding ring; "Now, therefore, m the presence of this company, in tba nam* of the Father, and of tho Son, and of the /Holy Ghost. 1 pronounce and declare that thjy are husband and wife, and what Go 1 hafeh joined together let no man put asundor." Rev. Cleveland, the President's brother, concluded the ceremony with a benediction in the following wordB: "God tho Fat'iov. God t i e Son, and God the Holy Ghost bless, preserve and keen you.

Congratulations fronV other relatives and invited guests quickly followed, and the company passing through the Green to the East Room engaged in yrieas-' or»t and social conversation for some time, and then repaired to the family dining-room, the President and his bride leading tho way to the supper table. At supper the President occupied his usual place a t the north side of tho tabic, his bride was seated a t his leit, and the guests. disposed a b o u t the place in a manner best calculated to promote freo and unrestrained social conversation. When the company went o u t t o tho supper room the bride advanced and put the knife in the great cake avid gave it a long cut. A supper of terrapin, sweet bread pates, chicken croquette, boned game, fruit, ices and confections followed, accompanied bv champagne.

The bride wore an enchuntimr wedding dress of ivory satin, amply garnished on the high corsage with India monliu crossod in Grecian folds and carried in exquisite falls of simplicity over the petticoats. The orange blossom garniture commencing upon the veil in a superb coronet was continued throughout the costume with artistic skill. Her veil of tulle completely enveloped her, falling to the edge ol the petticoat in front and extending the entiro length of her full court train. Except the engagement ring, a sapphire with two diamonds, and tha simple wedding ring which the President placed upon her finger, the bride wore no jewelry whatever.

THE KEOUAE BISPEAY. The novel featurvs of the floral decorations wero confined to tho Blue Room. Here the florist's art was mainly exercised. The wladows at tho southern and onter end of this oval-shaped room were banked with stately palms and ferns extending to the ceiling. In front of this imposingbank of green fifteen feet high, and lower down, beautiful foliage plants wero' arranged, and a t the baso of this bower were banks of roses, white, yellow, pink and red azaleas, fuchsias, geraniums and heliotropes, all combining t o make the bower a triumph of beauty and fragrance. On every side of the room the decorations were scarcely less elaborate. The. mantel above tho hearth on the east side of tho room was a solid bank of cut pansies in various colors, in which tho date of the wedding, "June L\ 1SS0," was written in letters of white flowers, surrounded by purple pansies. The mantel on the west, side of the room formed a solid bank of roses. dark and rich colored in tho center, in which was tho monogram, "C. F.," in white moss and hybrid cross. Tho two largo mirrors above tho mantel* wero draped and festooned with garlands of mixed roses; the doors leading to the adjoining r o o m s were festooned with heavy garlands', of roses in different distinct colors, and above the corridor door was a scroll composed of flowers, iu which was tho m o t t o , "E Pluribus I mum." in immortelles The main tabio decoration in the wedding supper-room was a full-rigged' ship, composed of pinks; ceutaurea egana, delphiniums, roses and pansies, bearing tho name "Hymen." It rested upon a mirror representing a lake, which gave it tho appearance of floating. Its shores were- composed of different varieties of seiuginellas and tiny pieces of corals, and the land was represented by a honk of jaequominot_ rosea.

His father died Tb« Noted Tammany Chief Kxphrs* s i Ills Koaldsnes la New York City, After B> Long Illness—Ulonrsuh e«l Sketch. NEW YOKK, Juue 2.—John Kelly, the cliief sachem of Tammany Hall, died yrelerday afternoon. Mr. Kelly had been ill for seven mouths. Duriair the last few weeks be seemed to" feel comparatively well, b u t on Sui%dny a t eight p. m. he was taken with an a t t a c k of fainting and became weaker afterward. Monday hu was worse, b u t this morning an improvement was apparent. At uoon. however, lit began to sink, and the approach uf the end wus realises. Mr. Kelly's death was painless, although he was conscious to the last. Only Mrs. Kelly and her two children wero present when ho passed away. Mrs. Kelly wut proatruted by the blow and is too ill to sei any body. No funeral arrangements hav« as yet been made. L a t e last evening it was announced that the funeral would tuko place on Saturday a t the cathedral. A solemn requiem mase will be celebrated over the remains. Archbishop Corrigau, who called a t the house during the evening, will probably officiate. York City when he was eight years of uge. Whilt* a mere lad he attrnetod-tho attention ot tho elder Bennett and was takou into the Herald office in tho character of an oflice-boy. He became a great favorite with Bennett, and when at leugth ho grew oldsr and determined on learning a trade, sc as to better support a large family t h a t was depending ou him. Mr. Bouuett offered him strong inducements to remain, and en parting with him pi-edicted t h a t he_ would succeed anywhere. The elder Bennett was l i s strong a friend ot Kelly's as the present Bennett was a bittai enemy. Kelly learned the trade of soapgstone. cutting and grate-setting, at which he afterward mude a considerable fortune. He proved to be, a remarkably shrewd business man, and his faith i u t h e future of Now York City was so great that with every $200 or $JW0 he would get he bought a lot up-town; these lots are worth to-day from ¢15,000 to ¢10,000, and Mr. Kelly has died a millionaire. Though his charity w a s distributed most secretly, it is estimated that he dispensed $'150*000 iu that way. Mr. Kelly's first appearanco in politics was in 1853, when ho was elected aldermen. In 1^54 he was elected to tho Thirty-fifth Congress. He resigned his seat before his last term was completed to tako the office of sheriff, to which he had been elected. It was whilo iu Congress thatGeueral Cass, President Buchanan's Secretary of State, spoko of him as "Honest John Kelly," which he has been commonly called since. In lJt>8 che was a candidate for the mayoralty, but the death of his wife and son during tho canvass caused him to withdraw, and ho went to Europe, remaining thero for three years, During his absence tho city was given over wholly to the plunder of tho Tweed ring, and ou his return prominent men like Mr. Tilden, Hewitt, Horatio Seymour and Belmont sought Mr. Kolly to help in its overthrow. Ho consented, and while Mr. Tilden and Charles U'Conor attacked th© Tweed ring in tho Legislature and in the courts Mr. Kolly had a hand-to-haud tussle with them in Tammany Hall, their citadel, and routed them, as is well known:. Thisgave him a prestige which he has held since. In 1S76 Mr. Kolly was appointod comptroller of the city, and not only stopped the debt of tho city increasing, something unprecedented,, but actually reduced it $12,000,000 during his term of ofllce. Kelly retired from the comptrollers!)ip in fSSO. Bitterly engaged in tho local political faction fighting for supremacy in tho party he was the target for constant and severe criticism a n d animadversion but his integrity -and ability wore -never questioned.—ho-~ sides his importance in local politics he possessed g r t a t influence in regard to National affairs, and was a member of nearly every Presidential convention after that of 1SG0. In 1879 ho antagonized the regular Democratic nomineo for Governor with such force as to defeat him, running as an independent, and polling over 70,000 votes.

[St Paul Glob*.] "Yes, I h a v e seeu some nice little g a m e s out West," remarked a m a n whose dark hair was slightly tinged with gray, a few. evenings ago as he sat with a few friends Who bad bee a discussing the closing of all gambling houses i n this city. ' S o m e very good ones in fact. Many people think the East is the only place wbe re g a m b l i n g U carried on to a n y extent, but they w a n t t o go o u t in the cattle country and a m o n g the gold m i n e s if they w a n t to see some big games. While in Dead wood, in 1877 or 1878, I don't remember which, I s a w a game which set me thinking considerably, a n d made mo wonder if human nerve had a limit. Sunday eveniug* w a s then t h e great time i n that city, and every thing was wide open, from the lowest dancehouse t o t h e most palatial rooms in the city. Stud-poker, faro, hazzard and Spanish monte were t h e principal games played. Every o n e played occasionally, and a m a n w h o never touched a chip w a s looked o n w i t h surprise and almost contempt. The m e n from t h e mines wore a l w a y s present and ready t o '/ako their last dollar on their favorite card. But to return to t h e game of which I had started to speak. I had gone into a big gambling house and there found o n e of the most moxley crowds it has ever been my fate t o mingle with. At a stud-poker table in the rear-room s a t a largo parly of men, a m o n g t h e m W a l t Owens and L e w Palmer, t w o men well known among the sporting fraternity as hard betters a n d nervy men. The g a m e w a s a b i g one, and soon all t h e m e n but Owens and Palmer had withdrawn from the game. Betting ran high a n d the other tables were soon deserted, the players coming to whore t h e t w o men sat, and watching the g a m e with almost breathless interest The game progressed, a n d tho first card turned u p for Palmer w a s a ten s p o t Owens also g o t a ten, and after looking at the card turned face d o w n bet fifty dollars. Palmer staid. His next card w a s a seven. Owens gaze rested on a five spot dealt him, but he cheerfully s a w the $100 bet by Palmer. Thus matters went on until four cards l a y in front of each man, face up, and one turned down. N o t a pair was in sight, and every one thought each man had an ace 'in t h e hole.' The botting then began i n earnest, and each m a n m u s t have had an idea that the other w a s 'bluffing,' or a t least it looked so. Soon there w a s some $903 o n the table, and Palmer made a bet of $500. Owens looked a t his hand, then at bis antagonist. Not a word did he say, but reaching into his inside vest pocket drew out a big roll of bills fro.m which he drew $5,000. After deliberating a moment, ho dropped it in tho pot, his face not m o v i n g a muscle. Palmer laid his hands on the table in front of him, then pulled a similar amount from his pocket, counted it, and found that it took every cent he had. With a smile he leaned forward and called Owens' bet. Silently the t w o men turned over the faced cartt. Palmer had a king, Owens an ace. Palmer glanced a t the cards, rese from his seat and remarked, in a calm voice: 'That beats m e ; Walt, lend mo a dollar to g e t a drink, will you?' and suuntered off." — • - * • l i e Fired t h e L»»t Shot. {Baltimore American.] Nap Casby ilred the last gun of the war on the Conf«dei-atie-sida.in U-eiieral Lee's army. A t the time of tue surrender at App o m a t t o x the Federals and Confederates were drawn up in linos facing each other and but a few feet apart. The latter were almost starved, having been without food for several days. While the terms of surrender were being adjusted f e m e very good hogs came along near the line, and, as soon as discovered by Casby, he raised his gun and shot one of them. The shooting of the animal creatod intense excitement for a brief time, as it w a s generally supposed that a conflict had been opened b y the t w o opposing forces. Tho facts, soon became known, and Casby was allowed to take his "forage" for tho benefit of himself and friends. m • m AN* Iowa newspaper says that a brother of tho late A. T.

[Louisville (Ky.) SpeclaLJ The quiet little village of Henryville, Clark County, Ind., was aroused last night from its usual sleepy condition by a rom a n t i c elopement, with m a n y unusually exciting surroundings. While Rev. Seymour Guernsey w a s holding services in h i s little church at half-past seven p. m. the congregation was startled b y a cry from the door: "Hello, the church!" One of the wardens w e n t t o t h e ctrurch-door a n d soon returned, m a k i n g the a n n o u n c e m e n t that "a couple a t the door w a n t e d to g e t marriod in a powerful hurry." Rev. Mr. Guernsey w e n t t o the door and found there a lady and g e n t l e m a n mounted on horses flecked with foam, and blowing as if from a hard,gallop. They gave their names a s Martin Mall and Baru Pixley. They e x - hibited u W a s h i n g t o n County license, itnd asked that, the minister marry them in haste. After some deliberation Rev. Mr. Garernsey concluded to perform t h e ceremony. So, with the congregation of t h e church gathered around, the y o u n g couple joined hands without dismounting, a n d were made m a n and wife.

Wilson, of Loveland, O., formerly w i t h March, Harwood & Co., manufacturing chemists of St. Louis, a n d o f the wellk n o w n firm of H. C. Wilson & Co., chemists, formerly of this city, g a v e our reporter yesterday a bit of thrilling personal e x - perience in this line. " I have crawled over red hot bars of iron a n d coals of fire," he said, , l i n m y a g o n y during an opium frenzy. The v e r y thought of m y sufferings freezes my blood and chills my bones. I w a s then eating over tiiirty grains of opium daily.r t u How did y o u contract the habit?" " E x c e s s i v e business cares broke me d o w n and my doctor prescribed opium t That i s the w a y nine-tenths of cases commence. W h e n I determined t o stop, however, I found I could not do it. " Y o u m a y be surprised t o know," h e said, '-that two-fifths of the s l a v e s o£>morphine and opium a r e physicians. Many of those I m e t . We studied our cases carefully. We found o u t w h a t the organs were in which the appetite w a s developed and sustained; vthat n o victim w a s free from a demoralized condition of those organs; that the hope of a cure depended entirely upon the degree of vigor which could be imparted to them.. I h a v e seen patients, while undergoing treatment, compelled to resort to opium again to deaden the h o r r i ^ e pain in those organs. I marvel h o w I ever escaped." " D o y o u m e a n t o say, Mr. Wilson, t h a t y o u have conquered the habit?" "Indeed I have." " D o y o u object to telling me h o w ? " " No, sir. S t u d y i n g the m a t t e r with several opium-eating physicians, We became satisfied - t h a t -the appeti to- for o p t u m m * located in the kidneys and liver. Our n e x t object w a s t o find a specific for restoring those organs t o health. The physicians, much against their code, addressed their attention t o a certain remedy and became thoroughly convinced o n i t s scientific merits alone that it w a s the o n l y one that could be relied uppn in every case of disordered kidneys and liver—L_thereupon began using it ar/d, supplementing it w i t h m y o w n special treatment, finally g o t fully over the habit. I m a y s a y that the most important part of the treatment is to get those organs first into good working condition, for in t h e m the appetite originates and is sustained, and in them over ninety porcent of all other human ailments originate." " F e r the last seven y e a r s this p o s i t i o n / h a s been t a k e n by the proprietors of that remedy and finally it is Decoming an. acknowledged scientific truth a m o n g t h e medical profession; m a n y of them, however, do not openly acknowledge i t and yet, knowing they nave no other scientific specific, their code n o t a l l o w i n g t h e m t o use it, t h e y b u y it upon tho o u i e t a n d prescribe i t i n their o w n botthes.'" " A s I said before, t h e opium and morphine habits c a n never be cured until t h e appetite for t h e m is routed o u t of the kidneys and liver. I have tried everything— experimented w i t h everything a n d a s the result of m y studies a n d investigation, I can say I know nothine can accomplish this result "but Warner's safe cure." " H a v e others tried your treatment?" " Y e s , sir, m a n y ; a n d all w h o have followed i t fully have recovered. Several of thorn w h o did not first treat their kidneys and liver for s i x or eight weeks, as I advised them, completely failed. This form of treatment is a l w a y s insisted upon for all patients, whether treated b y mail or a t the Loveland Opium Institute, and supplemented by our special private treatment, it alieaya cures." * Mr. Wilson stands very high wherever known. H i s experience is only another proof of the wonderful and conceded power of Warner's safe cure over all diseases of the kidneys, liver and blood, and the diseases caused b y derangements of those organs. We m a y say that it is very flattering to t h e proprietors of Warner's safe cure that iii has received the highest medical endorsement and, after persistent study, i t is admitted by scientists t h a t there is nothing in materia medica for the restoration of those great organs that equals it in power.

For the largest mounted delegation from any town in the county, that will occupy a place in the Fourth of July parade, a prize of 125 in gold will be given. Delegations intending to compete should appoint a captain and report to Chas. G. Jewett. A horse belonging to Hugh Lesterman, the ashery man, died suddenly on the street Decoration Day. He had just traded for the animal and was driving along in a carriage when it began to act queer, and upon l>eing freed from the buggy it wasted no time 111 dying. Farmers should be shy of traveling strangers offering to deliver them first-class binder twine at 10 cents \\ pound if they simply sign an order for the number of pouuds wanted. There are dozens of reputable and reliable dealers in Livingston county who offer twine at its lowest market value. James McKean, of the Bouge, started home last Saturday evening with a load of lumber. While yet in the village he became suddenly dizzy, fell from his load and was dragged a short distance before the team was stopped. Though not dangerously injured, his entire face and forehead was badly barked and a large chunk of flesh was gouged out of his cheek. Mr. Bell dressed the wounds and the man went home the same evening. THE STANDARD »f EXCELLENCE There is no Machine in the Trade that Equals it. Cremation.

A Goat onoe approached a peaxrat» ttand that WM kept by a Rabbit, pur chaaed five cents worth of peanuts, laid down a dime, and received a punched nickel in change. In a few day* the Goat came back, called for another pint of pea* note, and offered the same nickel in payment; but in the meantime had stopped the hole in it with a peg. '•I can't take that nickel,'' said the Rabbit. "This is the very nickel you gave me in change a few days ago," replied the Goat ' "I know it is,", continued the Rabbit, *4rat I made no attempt to deceive you about it. When you took the coin the hole was wide open, and you could see it for yourself. In working that mutilated coin off on you I simply showed my busl* ness sagacity; but now you bring it back with the bole stopped up and try to pass it, with a clear intent to deceive. That is fraud. My dear Goat, I'm afraid the grand jury will get after you if you are not more careful about little things of this sort" Moral: This Fable teaches that the moral quality of a business transaction often depends upon the view you take of it—[Life.

H o w Lnn<r Rtatcimn* Lire. • London physician has published some curious comparative statistics on the longevity of public and-pfofesslonal men, He found that th>-average age at death* of the twenty-five most prominent Ameriean statesmen during the last three hundredyears was sixty-nine. The average of an equal number of English statesmen was seventy years-—practically the same. He thought the latter did more work at an advanced age. The difference in favor of English, as compared with American, political life, was brought out by comparing the ages at death of members of the British Parliament with those of the United States Congress who died between 1860 and 1884. Of our Senators, fiftynine gave an average of sixty-one years; one hundred and forty-eix Representatives averaged fifty-five years, and the average for both was fifty-eight. The one hundred and twenty«one members of Parliament averaged sixty-eight years at death. He 1*1 o w e d the T o w - p a t h . Not many Aings are made in Connecticut which are not useful It was thought for a lo ng time that ihe/bld_ j^rjmlngton Canal was an exception; but report comes that an aged farmer, who died, made twenty per cent yearly on the stock which he owned in it during many ytars. After waiting for several years for a dividend ia vain, he complained to the president of the company, who jokingly told him to mow the tow-path. The farmer mowed as directed, and the hay which he cut was his dividend, worth twenty per cent oa his investment Trego H o w Bad She Pelt.

A lady asked Mr. Dion Boucicault one day how it was that on the evening before, when he appeared as Conu, his moustache was wanting, though it was both black and brilliant when he did not act "Madam," he replied, stroking it softly, "there is no mystery here. In making it up as Conn, I simply soap it well and cover it with rouge." \ LARD Of TES MIDHIOHT Iff*. Honaea Parched Aloft on Iceland Mountains. A correspondent writes from Iceland describing a voyage around the island. The fiords or bays, in which all but the south coast of the island abound, are narrow arms of the sea, running far In between the mountain chains that radiate from the land like the Angers from one's palm, only not with the same regularity. Not more than a few miles wide at the mouth, they grow gradually narrower as they proceed inland, until terminating at the foot of a email valley beyond. To get some idea of this lay your hand palm downward upon a table and slightly spread the fingers. Now your hand represents the island and the table the sea, and calling the distance from the tips of the fingers to their junction with the hand twenty miles you have some Idea of the proportions, except, perhaps, that the mountains are very high. Everywhere these mou ntains rise abruptly from the sea, often standing a perpendicular wall hundreds of feet in height, and then sloping gradually back to the peaks above. Here and there along the sides, on some slope less steep than the rest, surrounded by a few acres of ground, which presents no very striking contrast to the lava waste surrounding it, can be seen the turf-covered huts of the Icelandic farmer; and at the end of the fiord—on the web between the fingers—stands the cluster of well built houses forming the village which supplies the surrounding country with most of the necessaries of life. These houses are generally owned by foreigners and sometimes by one man—a company of Norwegians who work the fisheries about the island during the summer, or a Danish merchant who may have several trading stations along the coast Often, on passing the end of the promontories which separate the fiords, a small farm can he seen lodged on the slope high above the water, or in some small valleys between the mountains, where none but an Icelander would think it possible to live. Here, on a spot that cannot be reached from the sea, except in very calm weather, and which is inaccessible from the land several months in the year, these people live, contented and seemingly satisfied to spend their days as their fathers have done before them, though well acquainted, by reading, wi€h other and more inviting countries. To one who has always lived in a country where night and day perform their proper functions, such strange antics of the meteorological phenomena are, to say the least, decidedly novel. One hardly knows where to go to bed, and, indeed, one, two and three often finds us wide awake as ever, pacing the deck, while the sun, after descending from the west and bowling along the northern horizon for an hour or more, is already mounting the heavens with a long, majestic, eastward sweep. Ban and the Banco Alan. A New York bunco man touched Ben Maginley, the actor, on the shoulder one day and exclaimed : "Why, my dear old friend, how do you do ?" "I haven't felt better in twenty years," replied Ben, taking in the situation at a glance, , "I'm real glad to hear i t How are all the folks ?" , "All right, except BUI." "Why, is William sick?" "Bless you, no! Didn't you hear that he collided with that red buil of old Jones'?" "That is very sad; a man should be earef tit when be+s fooling around trattlc." "Hal Hal" roared Ben. "Kill isn't a man; he's our old white bull," and his Uugh chccujpied more of Broadway than a healthy foghorn would have "done". TflTie bunco man wanted liny moro to prove to him that he had caught a greenhorn, Ben'shillside laugh settled the .question. "N0w," said he, "I have a friend in New York who has shown me all the Bights worth seeing; so I can start right In and show them to you. Whut do you say*" "Why," said Ben; "I'm hero to see everything you've got worth seeing, but, young than," and he took a most tender hold of the lappel of the stecrer's coat, " I have been telling stories to Presidents and Princes for the last forty years, and a tear wells up into my eye as I think of how sad a thing it is to have to correct the impression you have formed of me. I need say no more than that, like my illustrious brother, Forres^ I served the first part of my apprenticeship in a circus^ --' And with a trip and a box under -the ear, the bunco-steerer was tangling himself in the gutter in the middle of Broadway while Ben moved quickly down the street whistling "I Am a Pirate xri— •- • • stain* tt Offended Iltm.

I remember once, a great^while ago, I was asked by a^friendjto^go with him in the evening to the house of an acquaintance, where they were going to have a kind of musicale, at which there was to be somenoted pianist, who had kindly consented to play a few strains. I did not get the name of the professional, but I went, and when the first piece was announced I saw that the light was very uncertain, so I kindly volunteered to get a lamp from another room. I held that big lamp, weighing about twenty-nine pounds, for half an hour, while the pianist would tinky, tinky upon the right hand, or bang, boomy to bang, bang down on the'bass, while he snorted aud slugged that old concert grand piano and almost knocked its teeth down its throat, or gently dawdled with the keys like a pale moonbeam •hlmmering through the bleached rafters of a deceased house, until at last there was a wild jangle, such as the accomplished musician give* to an instrument to show the audience that he has disabled the piano and will take a slight intermission while ijt is sent to the junk shop. With a sigh of relief I carefully put do^vn the twentjfcnine pound lamp, and my friend told ml that I had been standing there like liberty enlightening the world and holding that heavy lamp for Blind Tom. • » • • . a • I had never teen him before and I slipped out of the room before he had a chance to ma * * . . w —THE— SHREWD BUYER Will buy where can get the most desirable goods at tbe OUR STOCK consists of all the most standard and popular remedies, as well as all tbe latest medicines known to the drug trade.

Daniel Manning Tenders HI* Resignation us Secretary of the Treasury—IU Health Assigned as the Reason—The President ludueew Htm to Withdraw His Decision und Take a Vacation of Four Months. WASH-HUTON, June C—Secretary and Mrs. MiMining, accompanied by Mr. Joseph W. Miller, Commissioner of Internal Revenue, and Mrs. Miller, will leave Washington this afternoon for Hot Springs, Va. The rumor that the Secretary had placed his resignation in the lmsds of the Presi* dent was verified yesterday and tho corre. epondence made public. Secretary Manning's letter is \\% follows: " WASHINGTON, May 20,— My Bear Sir: I have decided to place in your band* my resignation of the office which you did me the honor t$ ask me to accept fifteen months ago. 41 My reasons for this decision are both public and personal. Since tho partial recovery of my health has permitted me to reflect upon the demoeds of the public service, to which I had given, perhaps too freely, all my strength, and upon the conditions of resuming my labors at your side I have not for a moment questioned what must bo my present duty. " k is not befitting that a department of the Government so difficult an.Kso important should be administered by a convalescent studious of parrying its daily exactions, nor that the watchful control of its enormous influence or the direction of its fiscal policies, even under your wise lead, should be attempted by any one concerned about husbanding his strength. "The reforms iu our fiscal policy which you have maintained and which have boon trained and commended to the wisdom of the legislative branch are reforms necessary to our safety, bindiug in honor, obligatory in the traditions of the Doaiocracy, set down with promises in our statute book. Our tariff laws are a needless o»pres» siou instead of an easy burden. Our currency Is a chaos, into which we pour from forced purchases of one of the pro/nous metais-a—mechau4eal increme; coinage law so ill-judged aud untimely that it hinders the opening of our mints to the natural and unlimited coinage of both metals and the free expansion of our gold and silver coin, along with the growing needs of a mighty people. "All our needful customs revenue might be collected by strictly revenue duties upon a few score articles, instead of by extravagant or prohibitory duties upon more than 4,000 articles. The more machinery of administration, by its own mass and complexity, breaks down and crushes out the enterprise it assumes to protect. A better currency than elsewhere exists might be had by a few lines of repealing aud empowering legislation, followed by two or three years of capable administration of the Treasury, and joined with the present sagacious conduct of our foreign policy by the State Department "Under the operation of currency laws and tariff laws, now in force, which you nnd tho Forty-ninth Congress were elected by tbe people to repeal and reform, tha burdened industries of our country aro filuugiug heavily along a miry road toward oreseeu dangers. We talk of arbitrating our respective share of dlHastor instead of knocking off our self-imposed fetter> and releasing a general prosperity. This is not, in my deliberate judgment, a time whon the President, can delay to provide or afford to dispense with an actual as well as a titular head of the Treasury Department "The fiscal policy of the Federal Government in rahpect to a debt so large, taxation so pervasive, and a currency which is universal, can not fail of being a chief factor in National and individual well-being. Your own duty, to which you have addressed yourself with such clear a n d - unflinching purpose, the duty of Congress iu the premises, and the laws which may yet bo enacted for the guidance of the Treasury Department, wul require that you be assisted in their administration by an officer capable of full efficiency and unwearied circumspection. "Permit me, therefore, without hesitation, to accept my temporary disability as a summons to stand aside and make way for one immediately, capable of fulfilling every requirement of the public service. "Very respectfully yours, "DANIEL MANNING. "To the President" The President's reply is as follows: "EXECUTIVE MANSION, WASHINGTON, June 1, 1886.—^/"?/ Dear Mr. Manning: I have received your letter in which your resignation is tendered as Secretary of the Treasury. " The sentiments therein contained aro entirely in keeping with th« devotion to public duty and the loyalty to tho interests of the Government which .have characterize}! yoirr relations to the present Administration. I am not surprised, though much impressed, by the concern which you evince for the correction of tho abuses and tbe inauguration of the reforms to which in your letter you allude, and which have been so often topics of our anxious consultations. "I have hoped that the day was at hand when the party to which we belong, influenced largely by faith and confidence in you and in the wisdom of your v i e w s / would be quickened in the sense of responsibility and led to more harmonious action upon the important questions with wiich you have to deal. / "In considering your proposed^-agnation I should be strongly inclined by my personal regard and.friendship/And by the value of your services to the'country to beg you to at once and entirely abandon your inclination to relinquish your part of ardous duty. /Bnt I am/Convinced.that I should Hot do this, and that in al 11 suggest and ask I should have/much at hoart vour welfare and safety. / "You/have placed your resignation in my hands.

June 4 . - T h e Knights jof^Lnbor hold another session yeutsrday morning, wiiich was devotud to election of the two members of tlie executive board to fill the remaining vacancies. It is, stated that all dissensions in the ordtir wore amicably settled. Joseph B. Buchanan, of Denver, Col., aud Ira A vies worth, of Baltimore, wero tho successful candidates. These two gentU'ineii, togethei with DavJd B. Gibson, of Hamilton, Ont., who was elected Wednesday afternoon, are most ardent I'owderly nun. The executive board on the subject of centralization, us exemplified by tho Homo Club !Principles, now stands seven against t h e . rlomo Club, three for it and one doubtfuL It is stated that something Ims beea done to stop indiscriminate striking and boycotting, but what are the methods to be used have not been made public. Yesterday afternoon the assembly adopt* ed an address inviting all labor organizations to unite with th1.? Knights of Labor in the struggle against the tyranny ol wealth. Tho address, in cloning, says; We have received a communication from a committee of the National officers of some of the National and International trades unions reuu>s.tiu<; certain *peci% legislation at our hands, but as we lielievf that the object sought and stated ia the preamble to the communication above referred to can bent bo accomplished by a conference between a committee of this association and a commitieo of any other organization, aud_as thojjropositions coutaiued tbe rein are inconsistent with our duty to our members, w« thereforo defer action upon saki proportions until a conference of committees can be had. The basis upon which we believo an agreement can be reached would necessarily include the adoption of some plan by which all labor organizations could bo protected from unfair mea—men expulled, suspended under fine or guilty of taking the places of union men or Knights of Labor :e-ov—while looked out from work, and that, as far as possible, a uniform standard of hours of labor and wages should bo adoptod, so that men of any trade enrolled in our order and men of trades-unions may not come in conflict because of the differences in wages or hours of labor. We also believe that a system of exchanging workiug cards should bo adopted, so that members of any craft belonging to different'organix. ations could work in harmony together—the card of any member of this order admitting to work in any union shop and the card of any union man admitting him to work in any Knights of Labor shop. We further believe that, upon a demand for increase of wages or shoj-ter hours of labor made by either organization, a conference should be hold with the organized laborers e nip toyed in the establishment When the demand for increase of wagus or reduction of hours is contemplated, actien upon a proposed reduction of wagos or other difficulty to be agreed upon in like manner, and that in the settlement of any difficulties between employers and employes the organization-< represented in the establishment shall be parties to the terms of settlement. The trades-unionists declare that the address is unsatisfactory to th-*m. Tho general assembly, before adjourning, issued an address denying that the Homj Club was engaged in plotting against the welfare of tho order, and saying that the very best of feeling prevailed among all the delegate's. An addross was also issued to the granerevH complimenting them and asking their aid. The latter part of the afternoon session was given up to a veritable |ove feast, and Jive—o'clock- tlie convention-adjourned sine tifr, hnving in the ten days'ssHsion accomplished all that the most sanguine had anticipated.

In those glorious mornings I •would hurry along the streets, hugging my cloak about me, the keen air bringing the crimson to my face, my 2 '47P* ]ty' searching hither aad thither under hats and bonnets for a face that shouW strike my imagination, and about Which I could weave strange, fauciftfl histories. Thus I walked on till I came to the less thickly inhabited portion of fhe city, Sharp breezes came from the My, whose scintillating surface was now in sight across the plats of land not yet built up. I turned rapidly round the corner, and came in sight of the church which was my destination. I looked with admiration at its heavy stone facade; I did not even scorn the fingers that dipped into the holy water in the vestibule. My childhood had been spent in Montreal, close by its imposing cathedral, and the glittering. ?. ; impressive ceremonies enacted there had remained in my memory like the fihining phantasm of a dream. So, with all my conscious pride of intellect and education, I could never despise the devotees of that religion. I stood just within the door that led from the vestibule, glancing through the new comers, watching the degree of devotcdness on each face as each forehead was bedewed with holy water. The majority of the countenances wei'e those qf working people—some" pretty —now and then an aristocratic form and dross swept up to the marble basin, and then passed me to the scats of the church, leaving a slight perfume behind. The lights at the altar were gleaming out below the picture of the Mater Immaculata. I was about turning to iind > ft seat,.when a slender figure came up the .steps. Here was a face to dream about. If I had come twine as far this <;old morning, I should have been repaid by the. interest .this girl instantly excited. She was not dressed like the wealthy people who had passed me, but she was more thoroughly an aris- $ tocrat than any of them. Her clothes were almost poor, but worn with that manner which the well, dressed would have envied. Was she a Catholic? As she came i>p I caught the gleam of a rosary of peails at her belt, whose heavy red gold fastenings were in «ntiro contrast with the rest of her dress. • But she did not stop'to sanctify herself with the holy water, though she half paused, as if feeling-an invUnution to'do so, then came through the "door and stood near me, waiting for a seat. •6ho, too, was a stranger. I stood furtively watching tho face of the girl. A proud, dark face, not naturally pale, but pallid now, from suffering, I thought; hand>omo, with ks full lips, albeit so colorless now, and its hazel eyes, though they looked cold and distant now—cool with that hopeless, distrustful look that must have been caused by pain. In some people such life struggles as 1 imagined for this £iri would have given a pleading, sup- • pHeating expression. For her they were'doing worse; they were freezing a nature passionate and impulsive. In , a moment a gentleman came up and *skrd: .» '"Would you like a seat, miss—and '\yoar friend?" J* jThe, question was addressed to me. I bowed assent, feeling more pleased than the occasion/would warrant, in think- ; ing that this stranger would sit with !««aa«.* We bothiollowed our conductor, and sat down side by side as the first peal of the organ burst on the air. My .companion did not kneel, though she followed the service in a little velvetbound prayer-book. It seemed to .me" : that. I had never heard much^finer organ music, but I was.sojntent upon •watching this girl that' it rolled" on 'Comparatively unbended by me. She leahe'd forwnrd,"shading her eyes with jfcer (JjandvMi* mouth growing sadder , ^and> 8*dder, till I thought I should cry, JjistT looking at thosd lips. At last a -<iiar dropped on the leaves of her book. T -turned away my head; it seemed .bardly right for me to look at grief ~wbieh I had no power, toassu age. The monotonous tones of the priest rang . through the church, and tho responses of the organ and choir awakened in my heart that old romance of religion which stands ready to spring into life at tho beck of the Roman ritual. When I again looked at the stranger !faer face was raised, her eyes looking steadfastly forward; no trace of tears •on that haughty countenance. The last peal ef music, and the vast congregation rose and began to move toward -the door. Could I not comfort this .girl who appealed so strongly to ^my sympathies—almost to my affec- •tionP I was wealthy; perhaps a spoiled -child of too indulgent parents. The thoughts that flashed through my mind w e r e more selfish than those. I confessed to myself that my wish to know the. stranger sprang first from my desire to gratify mysolj hi knowing her. We had both waited till the greater part ef the people had goner She •turned to leave the pew. No longer trying to resist the impulse that possessed me, I stepped nearer and laid mv hand lightly on her shoulder. She looked up with a movement of questioning surprise; Iter eyes met mine, and grew gentlo as she looked. •'.Pardon me, and do let me help you!" 1 exclaimoth in a low voice, holding her glance with my eyes, that must have shown how sincere were my Words. Her eyelids drooped, not with anger at my intrusion, but beoause her soul was looking too freely from its beautiful windows. The fingers that held, the prayer-book clasped closely round' i t "You are kind, very kind," she murmured, and I knew that her voice accorded with her face; ••but''—she lifted her eyes for an instant to my face— "but I do not know how you can help me. But you have helped me; your words have strengthened and refreshed me. I shall not forget you." She spoke rapidly, as though only so could she command her voice. As'she ceased speaking, she made a movement to leave me. I detained her. "If you think me kind, why do you reject my kindness?" I said. "You have perceived that I am sincere. Do not leave me. Let me walk with you; it is not right for you to refuse me." I spoke with vehemence, for indeed I was impetuously in earnest She tacitly assented, and we left the church together. "I do not know why you have had the power to melt my reserve," she said, "but I feel willing to tell you of the troubles that have come upon me. Perhaps you have guessed that I am a Southern, girl. Parents, fortune, happiness, all have been destroyed in this war. I was sent North, supported by money my father gave me, until he was killed. Since then I do not know how I have lived. For the last month 1 have been trying to ftet some sort of a situation which would support me. But I have no recommendation. Who would intrust children to an utter Stranger—" "You wish to bo a governess?" I interrupted, eagerly. "1 would rather be a music teaoher," she replied; "for that I know I am fitted— but I feel more uncertain in regard to being able to teach children that which is the duty of governesses. I was educated at a convent, and particular attention was paid to music, for my tastes all led in that direction." While I listened, I was deciding on the proposition to make her. She looked, and almost stopped in her walk, saying: "I d-o not recognize myself in thus speaking to a stranger. Trouble has increased my natural reserve." We were at a corner, and she extended her hand, "Let your dreams to-night be of the good you have done," she said, her lips curving sweetly as she spoke. *'I)o you go down this street?" I asked. She bowed. "If you leave me now," I continued, "at ioast promise to call and see me to-morrow. 1 believe I can get you a situation." Her eyes shone at the hope. She took my card with subdued eagerness, pressed- the, liamlllii&_gavo Jt^ and walked quickly away. "To what absurd church have you been this morning?" asked my mother, when I came down to dinner that day. She was in full out-door dress, having just returned from listening to the Rev. Dr. , the minister, par excellence, of the creme de la creme, to whose discourses I very seldom listened. ."To the new Catholic, my mother," "But he hasn't suited you," I said. "You complain every time he gives Annie her lesson. This girl whom I have seen is coming here to-morrow1 when, if you like her, you can engage her directly; and, if you please, mother, x wish her to live here in the house— like a lady, too, for she is one," I concluded, emphatically. "Who is sheP What is her nameP She has recommendations, I suppose?" "I don't know who she is; and you will not be particular about references." "Oh, I shall not!" cried my mother, a little scornfully. "I must then solicit this unknown to become an inmate of our house, and be very grateful if she consents." "Oh, no!" I exclaimed; "it is she who will be grateful. Be your own kind self, mother, and give this girl a trial. It can do us no harm, and can not fail of doing her good." "But, how am I to know what influence she may have upon Annie? She may be one of those excessively low people," responded my mother in a half yielding tone. "No, indeed—for, as the story books say, she 'has seen better days.' Sl "Ah! in that case I will see her. Had you n8t better go to church with me this afternoon,- and wear that exquisite new bonnet? Varen3 will be there, and so much depends on a first imoression." I went to service with my mother, but, unfortunately, Varens was not present, and consequently the execution my new bonnet would have effected was reserved for a future time, or forever. In my hurry I had forgotten to appoint an hour for the stranger to cail, and as i was obliged to go out, I was in a continual fear lest she should come while I was away. 1 hurried my mother through her shopping, at the risk of making her out of humor at her interview with the expected music teacher. Fortunately, however, my mother had been to lunch, and was in her boudoir indolently discussing our purchases when the bell rang, and a servant came up to say that there was a lady below who wished to see Miss Romaine. "Did she say what her business was?" inquired my mother, as I rose to descend to the drawing-roorn. "Something about giving music lessons, ma'am," was the answer. "IriTshe, then!" I exclaimed, moving toward the door, but was arrested by my mother's saying: "Show her up h</re. I stood waiting to receive her, feeling almost as anxious, I thought, as the stranger herself. The girl paused at the door, her face lightening up as she saw me into a brilliance which was the most exquisite compliment that could have been offered. "This is the lady of whom I told you. mother," I said. "Please be seated, Miss- ," said my mother, with as much suavity as though she were addressing one of her own circle. However vain and frivolous my mother was, she was always polite, with that genuine kindness of heart which is the soul of politeness. "My name is Kent," she said. "Your daughter has probably told you that I am" in~ "searclrtxf- a situtttion- -as- musie-} ferrves. teacher." The light of her face had die* away; she was mechanically repeating the old story. "Yes; I wish to engage a teacher for my little girl. You could teach on the organ ana piano, I presume?" "Yes; and harp and guitar, also." "And y-ocal music?" "Yes, madam." "Would you mind playing a little to us on the piano there?" , , ^ Miss Kent rose and went to the piano. She glanced at tke mqsic lying there, then sat down ami played. Her playing was perfection, it seemed to me, but IJv»ew instantly that she was not in the" mood; that to play thus on trhiKlid not summon the soul to her swoet sermon—and young Varens waa>luusic. Her knowledge, her touch, there with the Chapman girls.^-You were incomparable, and I hoped some day to feel the thrill of I replied, sitting down, inwardly hop ing that she would not scold me for not accompanying her. * "What, way out there! Did you walk?" "Yes, all the way." ••How odd of you. You don't know how much you missed in not being at our church. Dr. had such a | "She actually acta and looks as if she were among equals, instead of superiors," was the contemptuous answer. I yielded to the temptation of re plying: "She is certainly a lady. It is evident that Mr. Varens thinks her one, and he, you know, is a gentleman, t' ~- Miss Chapman's eyes scintillated with anger. I wondered if she were really engaged to Mr. Varens, as report said. I looked at that gentleman. His tall, graceful form was still bending over Miss Kent; he did not lose an opportunity of murmuring something in her ear, utterly forgetful that the watchful Chapmans were present. His dark face and gray eyes were animated and pleased. Thus much I could see in the mirror which reflected both their forms. I could not distinguish the expression of Miss Kent's countenance. I fancied, however, that she was distant, yet sweet; that Varens found her indescribably fascinating, as I had done. I his was several months after Mis* Kent had come to our home. Mr. Varens had seen her almost every time he had called, and he had taken occasion to call quite often. He was fertile in expedients for getting Miss Kent called down; and, iiad I been Mis's Chapman,! I should, perhaps, have felt something of the angry suspicion which she generally concealed. I was coming along the upper hall one day, when the bell rang, and sOme one was admitted. I hesitated for a moment about going down, and heard Mr. Varens' voice in a low tone, and the melodious tones of Miss Kent in replv. Evidently Miss Kent had been passing through the hail as Varens had entered. " I came to s_ee you, Miss Kent," he said, hurriedly.' f'I heard you saying to Miss Romaine the other day that you had never been on a sleigh-ride. It is excellent sleighing; my cutter is at the door? if you are not engaged, do please favor me." His voice was beseeching. I imagined Miss Kent's face gave no assent. "You are very good, but I must give Annie her lesson; and indeed, Mr. varens, I can not go with you." It was not in her usual self-possessed tone that she replied; in her accent I discovered that Varens was not wholly indifferent to her. I knew the fearful conflict which heart and pride would fight before she would acknowledge, even to herself, that she loved him? "Then you do not wish to go?" His voice was unconsciously reproachful, and fulI,of respect. "I have escaped a hundred engagements that I might give raystdf this pleasure." "But, Mr. Verens, have I not told you that my pupil awaits me? Goodmorning." She moved away and put her hand on the dining-room door. "Miss Kent"—he followed her—"at least your pupil will not prevent your accepting these," I bad Ustened. Not till I heard the outer door shut behind Varens, was I conscious of it, it had all passed so quickly. I commenced descending the stairs, and met Miss Kent coming up to her room. She held a single snowy cape jasmine, with its glossy green There was a -gtowi-a softened splendor on her face that made it absolutely beautiful, still it was sad. I thought she had gone to the diningroom, or I should have returned to my own room. . "Mr. Varens has just been here," she said, with lowered eyes. "And has left a fragrant reminder," I responded, passing quickly by her. I felt troubled to a degree that surnot my own offered v: Chapman gir know he's just from Europe^ and is looking perfectly -splendhL Wonder> if one of those girls, -expects to catch him? Mrs. Chapman will do her best to secure hjnr^douhtless he'll fall into the tra-p. ^ We must give a party on purpbse to have him here. He'll be Overwhelmed with invitations. When shall it be?" I had hardly listened to her talk till i felt conscious of the question she had asked. I looked up in some bewilderment, saying: "Excuse me—what is it you sayP" "You never listen to me," she exclaimed, petulantly. "I was telling yon about Marmaduke Varens. He is the best parti in town, and I was saying that we must give a party fot him. I do wish you would take some interest in what I say." "But, mother, I don't know: Mr. Varens," I said, deprecatingly; "besides, I was thinking of some one else," I continued, boldly resolved to tell her my thoughts now. She looked perfectly indifferent as to what were my thoughts, and I said: "Are you not curious about my meditations, mother?" She looked across the table at me, and asked kindly, for with all her frivolousness, she was kind: "What is it? Some ragged urchin whom yon met on your wav to church? Am I to patronize him, make him footman, butler, or what?" I laughed at the half alarm displayed in my mother's face. "I see you think me an eccentric phfianthrophist," 1 said; "but I'm going to be useful this time. I'vo found a music teacher for Annie." "What do you propose doing with Mr. Delormo?" asked my mother. enthusiasm m that touch. "Delorme can not play like that, can he, Mabel?" asked my mother, turning with a pleased face to me. At that moment a servant entered with some cards. My mother looked at them, and exclaimed: "TheChapmansand Mr. Varens! Come down, Mabel, as quickly as possible. Engage Miss Kent, and ask her to make, her home here, as you wished. I would like to have von come to-morrow, Miss Kent. For/ the present, good-bye;" and she hurried from the room. I did as my mother requested. I had only to look in Miss Kent's face to be assured of her giatitude. I knew the obstacle ber pride would be to our attempts to make her entirely our equal, one of our family! My mother liked her; my little sister Annie was as enthusiastic in her affection as possible. Insensibly Miss. Kent grew less reserved, her face had more color, . more the animation of happiness. She left the parlors when company was announced, and disliked to return unless requested to furnish music; theu she regarded it as a duty, and always complied. * . • * * * * • • "You have a very peculiar governess. Miss Romaine," said the eider Miss Chapman, as she stood by my side looking toward the far end of the drawing-room, where Miss Kent sat at the piano, surrounded by a group of our visitors, and with Marmaduke Varens"bendrng over her, turning the leat*s of her music with an air widely different from one of polite Indifference. "Sho is not strierly a governess, " I ned me. My impression of Mr. rens was very favorable, but I felt almost sure that he was engaged to Miss Chapman—everybody talked of it, Even if lie were not, it was highly improbable that he would marry the obscure Mbs Kent; still more improbable that she would accept him, should he offer himself. I had the ntniost faith in Miss Kent's—discretion, but I disliked that people should couple her name with that of Varens, in a way that would have led one to believe who did not know- her, that Varens was flirting with her for his own amusement. It was only a few days ago, at a party, that I heard one young man remark to another: "There goes Varens down the dance with Miss Chapman. Do you notice his ennuied air?" "Of course: every body notices it. Only let a certain pair of dark eyes appear upon the scene, and you will see his ennui disappear. It is not likely he would marry that Miss Kent, but he is most romantically smitten with her. He is prowling round Mrs. Romaine's half his time." "And Miss Kent—how is she affected?" "Can't say—flattered, of course, though."' "Let him let the governess alone," said the tirst speaker, indignantly. "It's not honorable in him." * * * * * * * May had softened the skies, and alihost began to make the city stifled! "Yorrsee she uses the royal 'we,' and disagreeable. Miss Kent was losing the color that had come to her face when she came to us. Unless urged very much, she never came into the parlor when any one was there. Varens himself began to look haggard and unhappy, but he still came to our house, gloomy and disappointed, in spite of the smiles of Miss Chapman. My mother sent op for me one morning, saying that Mr. Varens and Miss Chapman were below. 1 had just entered Miss Kent's room when the message reached me. She was not there, and as I turned to leave, I saw a directed envelbpe on the table. It was repHecLj.'But in what is she peculiar?" inly own name oa-flie letter. I caughtliy. it up, and commenced reading it as li went down-stairs. I burst into the parlor unceremoniously, hurriedly greeting the visitors, and exclaiming, as I walked to where my mother sat: "Miss Keat is gone!" It was not my mother who started in the intensest surprise and fear. Varens was at my side before the words had. hardly been uttered. "Let me see the note!" he said, authoritatively. • The expression of his face forbade me to refuse him had I wished to do so. He read the lines I had just read: "I fro frto mis himerpe,e rfaotri vae wfhoirl e,m ayt hlaepapsti.n esYs out baartej ttohoin kn omUel eu. nygoruat ekfunol.w m"v heart too well, t* VLKOJWIC KKNT." "Nevertheless, I should say she waa ungrateful," spoke Miss Chapman, who had read the note over Varens* shoulder. Varens' face was sharp and stern, as he rudely turned toward her, and said: "Peace! You know nothing of her.'* a Miss Chapman's anger blazed forth uncontrolled. "And you, sir? Perhaps you are her confidant?" "Varens' self-possession returned the instant Miss Chapman's forsook her. "Unfortunately, no; but I am her friend. As such, 1 shall seek her instantly. She must aot brave the world a second time alone." He turned from her, bowed to ray mother, and went towards the door. I followed him, feeling my admiration welling up into enthusiasm. Now he seemed worthy of Miss Kent. But why had he not acted like this before? Wonld it have prevented Miss Kent from going away? When we were out of the hearing of those in the parlor, I said: "Mr. Varen*. are you, engaged to Miss Chapman?" His eyes were clear and honest as ho replied: "No. Have I acted as if I were?" "Hut the world says so." "Yes; thanks to the machination of Mrs. Chapman, and because I have made it my home there s nee my return from Europe. Mr. Chapman is my cousin, and almost the only relative I have in the world. Have you any idea where Miss Kent has gone?" ho asked, abruptly dropping the distasteful subject. "Not the slightest. Promise me to find her." "Promise you! Does life depend upon it?" "Why had you not. your life?" I could not "Did it require a shook know how dear she is?" The sorrow upon his face haunted me long after he had gone. " I have ottered her the only love of my life, and sMie refused it*'' he said. He bowed over my hand and went away. I feared his task was hopeless. How could he ever rind her? I did not know the power and perseverance of the man. I wished that 1 could have given him some hope of her rove. For myself, I felt sure that she loved him. It seemed to me that, if I could see her, I would break down this false pride that prevented her making happy the man whom7 she loved, and who was worthy oT I t ~ Society discovered that \Tjs.s Kent, Mrs. Romaine's music teaoher, had, disappeared, and that Marmaduke Varens had gone after her, and soeiety had its customary laugh and sneer; and Miss Chapman married a millionaire twice as old a.s she. I expected to> hear from either Varens or Miss Kent. I was disappointed and grieved tkat 1 did not. Had Varens given over the pursuit? Had Miss Kent forgotten me? Nearly two years after Varens had left us so abruptly, I was standing with a group of ladies" and gentlemen at a party given by an acquaintance. Suddenly my hand, which hung by mv side, was clasped close by warm, slender lingers. The action was not usual attv fashionable party. There seemed something familiar in that clasp. I turned quickly, and met the eyes of Miss Kent. I had thought her beautiful in her days of poverty; now she was magnificent She drew me aside, and I asked: "Why did you go?" had just left me. "You must have guessed" "Because if you had remained, love wonid have conquered pride?" I said. "Yes." * "And now? Ah, I see. Happiness only could have mafic ydu so radiant. Varens found you. But you neglected me shamefully." "I wrote to you several times, and at last thought you had forgotten me; —no, I did not think that; but I received no answer." "Because I did not get the letters," I replied. "You are in town, and have not been to see me—that is worse." "But we only came to-night—To^ morrow we promised ourselves we would see you. We have been in Europe all this time." At that moment Varens came to us. then, resist to make saying. you as though she he said, gaily, "for you must know that I have the happiness of belonging to her." "It seems a happiness for you both," I said. "To say that your wife is the handsomest lady in the ' room, gives ono no idea of her«beauty. Have you two been trafficking in magic, over there in the Old World P" "Trafficking is not the word. Miss Romaine," said Varens. "It is love you see in Virginie's eyes and mine." "Then success to love!" 1 exclaimed, in a low tone, as I met the soft splendor of Virginie's glance.— CatheritH Earnshaw, in Ballot?s Atonlb* S . & * < % / \ . <c LESAL FACFT.(CT'3NE-;i Additona!

At & recent trial the prisonei '•ntored a plea of "not guilty," when, onj» of the jury put on his hat and started for the door. The judge called him back, and informed him that he could not leaVe until the case was tried. "Tried!" cried the juror, "Why, he acknowledges that he IB not guilty!" "Guilty, or not guilty!" rharply «tid an assize judge the other day to an inattentive female prisoner in the dock. "Just as your honor please. It's not for tha likes o' me to dictate to-jour honor's worship," was the reply. , "I see," said an opposing counsel to the late Emory A. Storrs, "you hate to meet the truth in this matter." "I never do meet it," was the prompt reply; "the truth and I always travel in the same direction." A youug barrister, intending to be very (eloquent, observed "such principles as these, my lord, are written in the Book of Nature." "What page, sir?" said Lord Chief Justice Ellenborough, and theoratoi was silenced for life. A good story is told of Judge Moncuifc, late Chief Justice of the Virginia Court ol Appeals, whose kindness of heart was proverbial. Notjong after the war there came to him an ex-Confederate soldier, with an empty sleevey who represented that he had been appointed a constable in his county, and finding it hard to keep the wolf awayrhad-eoaeeivvd the Idea of get. ting a license to practice law, thinking to make some petty fees before the magistrates' court. No stronger appeal than this could be made to Judge Moncure. One can almost hear his hear his hearty "Come in, my friend, come in ; I will ex. amine you." And then, the story goes, along examination followed, covering almost every branch of law, but consisting entirely of questions by the. judge, since the aspirant could not answer a single one of them. At lust in despair the old man Bftid: '.'My friend, is there anything you do know? If there is, and you will tel" me what it is, 1 will ask you that quest iu, and sign your license." ~~ "Now* sir," said the prosecuting attorney, pompously, "you are a railroad man, you say. Now, sir, let's see how much you know about your business, sir. What motives, sir, has your company for running its trains through the city faster than the ordinances decree?" "What motive ?" "Yes, sir ; what motive ? Come, sir!" "Why, locomotive, I should say." The witness was fined for contempt of court. A magistrate lately asked a street Arab, before putting him on his oath, what \va> done to people who swore falsely, and had his ears.' shocked with the reply, "They . make policemen out of 'em." A learned judge tells an amusing etory of the way that a juror "went for" a conviction. He says he was trying a murdei case a few days ago ; down in one of the wire-grass counties, and experienced great difficulty in getting a jury. Eleven jurors had been sworn in, and in the next panel was brought in a email, lean, lank fellow, who had on only one shoe, his pants being above his knees, his shirt open both back and front, and the aforciai<" pants being held up by a single brace The solicitor proceeded to ask the usutk questions in some cases, as follows: • "Have you, from having seen the crime committed, or having heard any of the testimony delivered under oat h, formed or '•xpressed any opinion as the guilt or in nocence of the prisoner at the bar?" Tht Bingle-brace fellow, in a clear and distiuet voice, answered : "Not any." "Have you any prejudice or bias resting on your mine for or against the prisoner at the bar?' "I hain't." " I s your mind perfectly impartial between theState and the accused?" "Hit air." "Are you conscientiously opposed to capital punishment?" "I isn't." The judge did not like the juror much, but, it being late, and the jurors scarceThe was "put upon " the prisoner :n the usual manner, the solicitor saying, "Juror, look upon the prisoner: prisoner look upon the juror." The juror was quite near the prisoner, and when this command -was given he bent over him, scanning him from head to foot intently f6r gome minutes, and then turned to the judge, and said in a firm, solemn voice, "Yes, judge, 1 think he's guilty." The following v\ related of Judge Underwood, late United States Tariff Com- Uwssioner, who was at the time on the "bench of the Superior Court at Rome, Ga, H appears that one Marshal Mdpney wa* found terribly mutilated on the outskirts of the city. Evidence seemed clearly to indicate that "Tobe" Cooper was the murderer. Owing to the successful impeachment of one of the State's most important witnesses the jury brought in a verdict of "not guilty." Many, including the Judge, were disappointed at his acquittal. The judge then rose slowly from his seat, slowly adjusted his spectacles, and thus addressed the prisoner: "Tobe Cooper," he saidv "you are a free man. You have had a vnarrow escape. You were charged with the murder of a fellow man, but the jury decides that you are not guilty. So may it be, but before you leave this room let me give you one "piece of advice: *Don't you ever murder any other man.'" Recently a judge being about to impose sentence upon a prisoner who had been convicted of house-breaking, called him up for that purpose; whereupon his counsel, addressing the court, asked that alight sentence be imposed. The court proceeded to sentence the prisoner to ten years^n the Penitent iary. His counsel appealed pathetically to the court, laying great stress upon the prisoner's feeble condition, "Your honor," said the counsel, "my client is now in the last stages of consumption. %He will never live.to serve biJf sentence, and I hope your Honor will IKJ merciful to him." "Well, said the court, "I will do better, I will sentence the prisoner to the Penitentiary, at hard labor, for life." A* hi*Li as 2riJ cents has been paid ior wool here.

June 11.— The report o! t h e House Judiciary Committee on the E d m u n d s Anti-Polygamy bill, which was presented • t o tho House yesterday, is a very long document. Alter a detailed s t a t e m e n t oi tho charges made by the committee (already pubhshod) und the reaaons therefor the committee Bays i t has uo disposition t o recommend any meawuro to tho House which will Involve the sanctity of any religious Inith, however wrontr in its opinion it may i>e. The committee expresses its dissent from the twelfth section of the Senate bill, t h e effect of which would be t h a t the cond u c t of tho corporate "Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints" would bo controlled by trustees of the church in conjunction " with trustees appointed by the President. This union of trustees of tho church and those of t h e Government could not bo distinguished) from a union of the church and s t a t e and •a law respecting tho establishment of religion. The committeo thinks the charter can be taken away without any strained construction of authorities, and says: "Both the charter of the church and of tho Emigration Fund Company are null for lack of power. U'he acts confirming those charteis are void for the same reason. It is a matter of grave doubt whether the organic act authorized the original grant of sucirchartors as these-werer The Emigra* tion Fund Company act trenches upon the power of Congress as to foreign emigration, and assumes to regulate a m a t t e r neither delegated to nor within its authority. But both these laws are unconstitutional, for it is obvious they give a preference to this form of religion o v e r every other. A law •which thus discriminates in favor of one form of religion ovor another is in a prope r sense a Taw respecting the establishm e n t of religion.' Congress, which pos sesses all original power over the Territories, has the right to avoid the acts of its subordinate agency and assert its own poli c y . " With this view of tho power of Congress t h e committee recommends to cut out by t h e roots this church establishment and t h e Emigration F u n d Company and its attachments, a n d ' t o authorize a judicial prj ceeding through t h e Attorney- GenjiKfTfor dealing with the property ru^hts^iccording t o law and equity. Of the sectiohoi-tlio bill requiring voters t o take an^onxn t o support the laws tho Teport-eay8: "Xone of those who will do things prescribed in the oath should "Vote—for they are n o t good citizens." In conclusion tho report says: ''While the bill as amended deals with t h e public questions with firmness and "with a real purpose of curing existing -evils, it does so in entire consistency with tho constitutional liberties of tho people -and with their free right to exercise their religious' beliefs according to their confidences and only under the responsibility •of each m a n to the Supremo Being."

BELFAST, June 11.—The Orange riots •were renewed here last night. An infuriated m o b held possession of tho streets und /vrecked and p i l l a g e o ^ t r e ^ l n r v ^ T n ^ r - T ^ police were compelled to fire buckshot into t h e mob, b u t so far a* known n o one Wiis, fatally wounded. Many of tho police were injured by stones. The appeals of clergyjnen to the rioters to disperse were futile, .Eventually the troops cleared tho streets. The city was comparatively quiet during t h e day, but mobs filled the streets and all work and all business was suspended. T h e Orangemen are greatly incensed a t t h e constabulary for firing upon them and t h r e a t e n t o sack their barracks. Seven h u n d r e d extra policemen are in town. T h e out-of-town police have been withdrawn from the streets in con- ^sequence of the - hostility manifested toward them by Orangemen, a n d soldiers have been told off to take t h e i r places. The P r o t e s t a n t s living on t h e Shank Hill r o a d held a meeting yester- • d a y and adopted resolutions denouncing t h e foreign police and demanding their 'withdrawal.

LONDON, June 12.—Tho rioting at Belfast Thursday night was less disastrous t h a n on Wednesday. After their day's labor had ended 'thousands of workiugmen gathered iu tho vicinity of the Bowers Hill police station. They execrated the police and cried out: "We will' have ten lives for every one ot the murdered." The country police w#re then withdrawn and some well-known local constables were sent to reason with tho mob. The latter demanded tho withdrawal of all the police. Archbishop Levre and several Presbyterian clergymen, after this, implored tho mob to disperse. Their addresses proved altogether useless, and even while the clergymen were speaking the rioters kept' up a desultory stonethrowhfg a t the police. One stone struck a divine squarely in the face and hurt him severely. When the preachers ceased the mob surged up t o the gate of the barracks and defied tho police to come out and make a square fight. Things went on in this way till a b o u t ten o'clock, when two troops of d r a g o o n s gallopud up, They were followed by U00 infantry. These men had been under arms eleven hours. The mob was for_a mpjnent powerless with surprise and dispersed. Tho runaways soou, however, becamo ashamed of themselves and returned to the scene, warmly cheering the soldiers. The latter had taken complete possession ofthestreets around the barracks and cordoned them effectively. The mob. realizing the impregnability of the police, departed in sections, cursing the Pope, denouncing ho m« rule, and singing "Tho Orange Lily" u •'Rule Britannia.'' While all this was ^orug-tfn a t the Bowers Hill banwckaji^rtob h;id taken possession of Yorjv-^treoti They first concentratcii- krtront of a wine store kept by a lolic named McKenria. The building was soon seized and wrecked, and all of McKenua's stock of wines waa emptied in tho street. This mob then proceeded to MCL'JOM key's tavern. The police had taken warning and got there lirst. A set fight took place. It was waged with desperation on both sides. The police lired twenty-four rounds of buckshot a t the rioters, but the mob finally drove them away* and smashed McCloakey's tavern to pieces, distributing tht liquor to all, who would drink or carry liquor away. Several of the rioter* were wounded in this fight and left helpless in the street by their comrades, who, maddened with liquor and excitement, rushed to the work of wreck and pillage. A number of other taverns were destroyed and all their stocks of wine, whisky and beer thrown out to the crowd in the streets, who drank it ravenously or carried it away in jugs or buckets, in th< latter work scores of women and children were engaged all the time tho rioting lasted. Toward midnight the mob, after having wrecked and looted all the taverns in th< vicinity, returned to McCloskey's and set the house on fire. The glare attracted thi police7wlToft^TormeirTrndmarchrrl—dtj-w-athero to put out the fire and save the town from a conflagration. They had to fight for every foot of the way they made.

BARNABY LOST. H o w J u r i e s W e r e " W o r k e d D a y s o f D a n i e l W e b a t e r ' a C « r e e r . A good story, capitally.-told by Mr. Webstcr, illustrat<.\d his early prof essional life in .New Hampshire. "When I was a young practitioner," said Mr. Webster, ''there was but ono man at the New Hampshire bar of whom 1 Was afraid, and that was old Barnaby. There were but few m e n who dared to enter the list with him. On one occasion Barnaby was employed to defend a suit for a piece of land, brought by a little, crabbed, cunning lawyer called Bruce. Bruce's case was looked upon as good as lost when it was -that Barnaby. was retained agajjo^st him. The suit came on for trjaf, arid CHARI.ES WICKS, of Northport, L. I., has a tub of water in his barn $pr watering horses. He placed seven or eight big bullheads in it. The barn is full of rats which, when they are thirsty, climb up on the edge of the tub to drink. No sooner does a rat dip his nose under water than the bullheads grab him, pull him down, drown him, and eat him at their leisure. A. H. DAYTON*, of Springfield, 0., bought a chicken—so-called—for a recent Sunday dinner. The cook dressed it, and found within throe'shelless eggs. They were put into tho frying pan with the fowl, and ina moment there were three separate explosions like pistol shots, euchegg^Was violently dashed against the ceiling, and the cook was badly burped: It is suggested that the hen had been feeding on dynamite. __A--siAK living near Tampa, Fla, was bit- In the Early ^ ^ ° o n the leg by a rattlesnake. A doctor was at once sent for, and the log was bandaged tightly above tho wound, although it was thought that the man would die before medical'assistance could be procured. The leg, having been bared for the application of the bandage, was attacked by a swarm of mosquitoes. When the physician finally arrived he found the man in good condition, but the ground around where he lay was strewn with dead mosquitoes. ^,- --"" Barnaby_ found that. Brucyj-had worked hard, a n d "TeTtT'llo^fo'hc unturned to gain the victoryr T h e testimony for the plainjtuTwas very strong, and unless. Jt~could be impeached the case of int was* lost. The principal traduced 1>3' the plain till wore a rod coat. In summing up for the defense, old Barnaby commenced a furious attack on this witness, pulling his testimony all to pieces, and appealing to the jury if a m a n who wore a red coat was, under any circumstances, to be believed. 'And who ks this red-coated witness?1 exclaimed Barnaby, 'but a descendant of our common enemy, who. has striven to take from us our liberty, and would not hesitate now to'deprive my poor client of his land by making any sort of red-coatod statement!' During this speech Bruce was walking up and down the bar, greatly excited, and convinced that his case was gone, knowing, as he did, the Srejndice of the jury against any thing ritish. Whilst, however, 'Barnaby was gesticulating, and leaning forward to the jury in his eloquent appeal, his shirt bosom opened slightly, *fcnd Bruce accidentally discovered that Barnaby wore a'red flannel undershirt. Brace's countenance' brightened up. Putting both hands/In his coat pockets, he walked to t h e n a r with great confidence,, to the astonishment of his client and all looke-rs-on, <*ast a«r Barnaby concluded, Bruce whispered in the ear of his cUetti: T v e got him; your case is safe;' a n d approaching the jury he commoticedhis reply to the slaughtering argument of hisadversary. Bruce gave a regular history of the ancestry or his red-coated witness, proving, his /patriotism and devotion to the country, and his character for truTTi"Wit- vera'Cv ity. "But what, gentlemen of the jury.' broke, forth Bruce* in a loud strain of eloquence, while, his o}-cs flashed lire, 'what are you to expect of a man who stands here to defend a cause based on no foundation of right or justice whatever; of a man who undertakes to deour testimony on the ground that my whttess wears* 'a fed coat, when, g e n t l e m c n ^ o f t h e jury, when, when, when, gentleiiieii^of the jury [Here Bruce made a sprrng. and, catching Barnaby by the bosom^nf the"shirt, tore it open, displaying his^rcd flannel], when Mr. Barnaby him self "\viears_ -a red flannel coat concealed under a blue one?1 The^effcet was electrical; Barnaby was beaten at his own game, and Bruce gained the case/* —Ben: Perky Poorc, in Boston Budqct* " T h e S l o u g h o f I>e«pon4«ficy'* in which you are wallowing, on account 6f some of those diseases peculiar to you, mudame, andjwolch have robbed you of the rosy Jute of health", and made life a burde.n-to'you, you can easily get out of. ras ascertained jJiivTieree'* "Favorite Prescription" will nined against" free.you from all such troubles, and soon •""* recall-the-rose^tint of_h.ealth to your cheek, and the elasticity to vourstep.

Lassing, M. 1>., editor, -writes the following beautiful description of the laboratories of tho human system. We think we have never read a finer or more trustworthy oue.J " Man is the greatest of all chemical laboratories. Magnify the smallest cell of the body and what a factory la spread bofore the eyes countless chambers in which are globes of air, masses of solid matter, globules of dying liquid; a flash comes and the whole is consumed and needful heat is carried into every part of the system. Electrical forces also generate and are conveyed to the brain, the muscles and the various nerve centers. '•In another set of a million chambers we see various gashes and vapors. By chemical action the^e ate changed and puriiied in the lungs and the skin. The blood we often say is a great living river, in its current are masses which the air in the lungs did not attect: blocks of chalk; slabs of tartar; pieces of bone-ash, strings of albumen; drops of molasses, and lines of alcohoL How are these waste masses disposed of? .Begin where you will in this great stream you must come to the purifying places of the system. Hero is all activity and an invisible force- reaches out into the stream, seizes and carries this mass of waste into vast trenches, thence into a smaller reservoir, and finally into a larger reservoir, which re^ulurly discharges its contents. "•This separation of limo, uric acid and other waste material from the blood without robbing it of a particle of the life fluid, passes human comprehension. In health this blood-purifying paocess is carried on without our knowledge. The organs in which it is done are faithful servants whose work is silent as long as health remains. 4* People strangely wait until pain strikes a nerve before they will realise that they have any trouble. They do not know that pain concerns chiefly the exterior not the interior of the body. A certain set of nerves connect these blood-purifying organs with the brain. They may not gnaw and bite as does the tooth-ache or a scratch, but they regularly, sjleutly report. When these organs are falling these nerves indicate it by drawing the blood from the face and cheek, leaving the lip and eye blanched, by sending uric acid poison into the smallest veins, the skin then becoming gray, yellow or brown. They also prevent the purification of the blood in.the lungs and cause pulmonary difficulties, weariness and pain. Who enjoys perfect health, espepeciaily iu this, land where we burn the candle in one thassi The athlete breaks down in, the race; the editor_lfllls_at his desk; the merckant succumbs in his counting- room. These events should not have been unexpected for nature longap;o hung out her 'lanterns of alarm.' VVhen the 'accident' finally comes, its fatal effect is seen in a hundred forms*, either as congestion, chronic weakness, as wrong action, as variable appetite, as head troubles, ay palpitation and irregularities of the heart, as premature decay, as dryness and harshness of the skin causing the hair to drop out or turn gray, as apoplexy, as paralysis, em general debility, blood poisoning, etc. ''Put no faith then in tno wiseacre who says there is no danger em long as there is, no path. Put no faith in the physician, whoever ho may bt», who says iVtijra mere cold or a slight indisposition.' He knows tittle, if any, more thait-You do about it. He can neither £&er' nor examine these organs and^*b>p<?nds entirely upon experimental tests, that you can make as well as he^.- ' " --"""If tho output is discolored or niuddy, if it contains albumen, lymph, crystals, sweet or morbid mntter, is red with escaped blood, or roily with gravel, mucus and froth, something is wrong and disease and death are not far away. "These organs which we have described thus at length, because they are really the mo>t important ones in the human system, tne ones in which a large majority of human ailments originate and are sustained, are the kidneys. They have not been much discussed in public because it is conceded that the profession has little known power over them. What is wanted for such organs is a simple medicine, which can do no harm to the most delicate but must bo of the greatest benefit to the afflicted. Such a remedv, tried and proved by many thousands ail over the world is Warder's safe cure. With those in whom disease is deep seated it is the only specific. For those in whom the seeds are sown and the beginning of illness started it is an unfailing reliance. It may be recommended to the well to prevent sickness and the sick to prevent death. With its aid the great filtering engines «f the system keep on in their silent work without interruption; without it they get out of gearand thou disease and death open tho door and cross the threshold."

The salvation army has settled upon Howell as their state headquarters. The sink hole on the new road in this place still pives trouble. It settles nearly every time a train goes across it. The T. A. A. & N. M. depot will be built of brick and will be placed at the loot of Walnut street. A nice job of grading is being done in iteproposed locality. The Methodist socjefy has decided, to add 15 feet to the west end of" their church, giving them an increased seating capacity of about 150. Work will betfin at once. The committee on arrangements seeing that they had mapped out too grand a celebration tor even the large amount qt monejrraised, went around town the morning following the biy "protest" meeting and raised an extra hundred dollars in4 popular subscriptions of $1 and $2 each. The masses of the people want a triple-plated, golden-trimmed display of potriotism, and Howell is going to invest the price of a decent little farm for that purpose. Let the Biitish lion yelp, for Howell will twist its tail tighter than the purse-strings of the loudest talking moral reformer's usually are when a subscription paper is on its rounds.

General Manager &&m FOWLERVILLE SAYINGS. From the Kevlew. Mr. C. G. Handy is now the happy father of a 10$ pound boy, born on Wednesday. At a meeting of the school board on Friday evening last the following able crips ot teachers were engaged f&r the coming scbocl year: C. E. Foster, principal; Belie E. Horton, preceptress; Mis.* Mate Bennett, Grammer; Miss Nellie Kuel, second primary; $ti«.s Jennie Spencer and Miss Eva Austin, first primary. On Friday last Mrs. G. Smith, of Conway, stapted to drive to Byron alone. When near the residence of Mr. Andrew Love a hog that was lying under a tree by the side of the road sprang up and frightened the horse which ran abom 20 rods, throwing Mrs. Smith out and bruising her considerably, but not dangerously. The buggy is a total wreck. The horse stopped and came back alter recovering irotn its fright. Lewis Herning and Benjimm^A Wilcox, proprietors of the meat markets, have signed an agreement that on and after next Sabbath, June 13tb, they will close their respective markets at eight o'clock sharp, stand' ard time, until October 1st, and a/ter that date to June 1st, 1887, neither market will be opened at all on Sun* day, except in case of sickness. This is certainly a move m the right direction. There is no more reason-for keening a meat market open all day Sunday than there is for the dry goods and grocery store*, Business men are dividing into two classes. One class pushes ahead through rain and shine and all manner of business troubles and turn up al the business possible; the other class holds back and studies the various signs ot the times, making an attempt to do something when times look bright and everything runs along smoothly, and stopping their efforts the moment the sky begins to darken in the financial horizon. The first class always manage to tind business in some way, while the latter take what they can get after the first is through. Business come* only by hard work, and tho^e who go steadily forward, using ordinary business prudence, are sure to come out on top in the end. Confidence in one's own ability to do business is as necessary to success as a prosperous condition of things genera ly.—Ex. The more money you exact of a saloonkeeper to sell liquors, the harder be will work to ruin your sons and daughters. How high do you want the license? Some one says so high that it will prohibit, Ab, the secret of wanting license is for the moneyS sake. Shame on the man that wants money at the expense of his so* or daughter's virtue!—Review. The Pontiac Bill Poster says the business men of the state, no matter where located, have no idea of the yearly loss they incur on account of roads, while the loss to farmers is nearly as great. Country roads should be built in a first class and permanent manner under the direction of competent men, and a tax should be levied to carry on and complete the work. » * Actlie, Pushing and Reliable.

"My dear child, Nellie Mkldleton Is t*0t a coquette—at least in the ordinary acceptance of the terra. She hai an exceeding desire tp be liked, to be petted; t o be something more than a mere acquaintance of those whom she admires. She is a general favorite among women, unless they chance to be jealous of her—though how she manages that doubtless- you will so6n be able to tell better than 1; but with the men she has the art of finding out the "thing which you especially desire to shine, and to appreciate you in that thing. For instance, keen little thing she is, she discovered what my wife don't know yet, that 1 am not verv proud of my scribbling—think it, in fact, very poor stuff, indeed; but I like to be considered as a man of fine taste and keen perceptions «nd sympathies. It didn't take Nellie more than three times to find that, and she is always appealing to those supposed qualities, I know perfectly all the time she is playing with m e ; that is only her way of making herself agreeable; that she "isn't overwhelmingly anxious for my approval; that she isn't occtfpied when away from me in picturing to1 herself all my good and winning qualities, and yet I like it. \Vhen she is looking at me in her soft, appealing Vay she can twist me around her linger."' Vivia gave a little si^u. "And you say she is coming this afternoon?" . "Yes; she will be here 1osupper." Nellie came, dressed simply enough in black—a very pretty girl, fair, but not blonde, with brown hair brushed away from the wide, calm forehead; gray, cheerful eyes, and a face in general outline of feat tire not altogether unlike that of Marie-Stuart. She was quiet, almost silent. The girls looked atone another as if they would say: "Is this the paragon whom we were to dread*" and arched brows and pursed-up mouths in pretty contempt nt me, not Eeeing, as I did, that Nellie was simply taking their gauge and a .survey of her position. She felt instinctively a certain stand-offishness assumed toward her by the feminine element, and set herself to combat tt; found .In le.ss than a week a hundred ways of being useful and entertaining. She was skillful in devising ways in which to afford the girls tete-a-tctes with their respective "particulars," behaved,in short, more like a grandmother than a belle of 20; won them all over, even including Bell, who seemed to like her grudgingly and under protest, and then was ready for action. . . - ' During her week of quiescence there had been, though she had appeared unconscious bf the fact, masculine observers. They had .seen that she was not * only lovely, but after that piquant fashion which depends much on expression, and keeps you busy studying it. She sang sweetly, played well, con- 4» Versed delightfully, had a keen eye and •aft touch ; grew on you, in short, •Irengthened her hold upon you day by day. One thing, however, puzzled me—an unusual languor, almost timidity, in Nellie, and Otto Winstanley's almost incomprehensible conduct. He had joined in none of the conversation anticipatory of her arrival, and when she was presented there was a start and sudden paleness on Nellie's part and a sudden dark upleaping of color and feeltag to his face as he muttered something about a previous acquaintance. I think no one else observed this, or the ftHt that bis indolent flirtation with Bell 4 b w e d with sudden and unaccountable ^«fftk)r since Nellie's arrival. Perhaps, alm, no one else remarked that he certainly treated Miss Middleton with downright rudeness and neglect, or thought to ask themselves If a man was apt to be rude and neglectful toward a sweet and winning girl to whom he'was perfectly indifferent. But, be that as it might, two slow weeks went and ) s a w no more clearly in. terthe myBtery than I had done at first. But one evening Nellie came and sat down beside me fn the twilight. She sat very still, looked even paler than nsnal, and I caught myself pitying her, bnt at a loss how to manifest it 1 remained silent Otto strolled in, and giving me a -brief fcpd, sat down and began playing with Jip, the terrier. Having a vague idea that Nellie might be inclined to be more specific with him than me, I made Mrs. Polly do some one a good turn, for one of the few times in her life, and getting u p — a f l o U Q U a b o u t being wanted, lnffr them alone, w h a t afterward occurred I h a r t frega the beat authority—Nellie heraelt aat in tne laac-growing twilight* memories busy a t the heart of each; pride struggling with a feeling that, during those weeks, bad fast been growing too strong for i t Nellie, with bowed head and swimming eyes; Otto watching hex, with face softening In spite of himself. Suddenly Nellie rose with an air of desperation, and brushing past Otto, went over to the piano. As she reached It something rang o u t sharply—a click, as of something metallic that had struck on the marble hearth. Otto stooped to pick u p something that shone in the red firelight just at hlaioot. She moved forward as if to prevent him ; stood then, as if paralysed, as he held up a ring—a simple little thing—only a plain gold circlet, bearing some words engrave* on it, hanging from a chain attached t o a hood likv> a watch guard. Otto looked alternately at it and Nellie, who stood by him crimson and speech* leas. " Y o u have kept tnis all this time, Nellie?"' Nellie was silent " Why did you keep It?" " I wanted something to wear on t h e chain, and I don't carry my watch." "Oh, I thought perhaps you cared something for it, after all t" " You thought differently when we ware last together." "I had reason." *• That is your assertion." "Answer, then, f ask you to Judge yourself. Had t riot reason F Would not any man have been justified in being incensed and outraged at your _couduct F" "I was very young, very thoughtless. I never dreamed that you really cared. It was pleasant to talk and fret, and I liked to vex you for the pleasure of the reconciliation.'* " A strange pleasure, that was pleased with the pain it inflicted on what it loved the best. A strange thoughtlessness, that permitted me no freedom, but elaimed an unbounded liberty for herself." " Ybu have said all thofte things once," returned Nellie, with some dignity, *» and it was painful enough to hear them once." " I had no intention of reproaching you," answered Otto; " for out of the bitterness of the heart my mouth spoke. It is so miserable to look at you and think what might have been, and how now we are hopelessly separated." "Otto," said Nellie, timidly, "don't you think we might be friendsf You need not treat me quite as an enemy. If you have Buffered, so do I ; and you cannot think what a pain it is to see the eyes that once were my light look coldly or* me. It makes me wretched. &et us, at least, be friends." Otto looked at her earnestlyV took A*r hands and drew her toward him. Half unconsciously she sank down on the little stool at his feet, her head close to his hand, that, following its old habitude, began to stroke the soft, bright hair. Presently "No," said Otto, firmly. ««Wecon never befriends." "You are unforgiving." "Very. I will not bate nn atom of my just rights.* 1 must and will have you for my wife, as you once promised me to be, or nothing. Mere cool friendship will not satisfy me." "And 1 was not very obstinate," concluded Nellie, archly, "an that was precisely why I came, knowing that he was here." I have t heir wedding cards before me now, and now I am going to whisper Tt»~ the ear of,the public what I then thought; Nellie dropped the ring on purpose. ILL-FITTING NAME3. _, . AMfeertaa PrleeC A h e a d •!* F e e t e a r . The French Professor Pasteur, who has made himself famous by Inoculating men and cattle with disease germs to insure them against epidemics, ought to yield the palm of priority in that discovery to a thumble priest of Siberia. In 1M8, when the Siberian plague was killing the cattle in this place, Father An* drew tloaklmansky of the Troitzky village, resorted to a desperate means In order to save his cows. He got some blood frdm a dying cow, saturated threads with that blood, and passed these threads through the ears of the healthy cows, numbering eleven. At the place where the ears were punctured there appeared tumors of the size of a pigeon egg. In a short time those tumors disappeared, and the cows remained alive and healthy, though t b r rest of the cattle of that vU* lags peris***- TMmr W a r e Ae«.aaft*te*. R e was only a stray wolf of a yellow dog with no ancestry to boast of, but as he sat upon the wooden seat upon one of Boston's parks with a little child's tiny arm lovingly twined about his ngly thick neck and a sweet, cooing- voice saying in his ear, "I love yon, lKtle doggie," he w a s as proud as any prise setter In the land. "Is that your dog, little boy?" asked a policeman as he passed the happy couple. ><No, he doesn't belong to ma, only I'm acquainted with him," answered the affectionate friend of the little tramp dog. I t o t v f h e Hcifttment Atirrehlrix t o fs>* Co&nometfr lw Often H^lleJ by t i l * Po*aeaaor. Says a Writer in London Truth. Now is it not a pity that people's names fit so badly? Would it net be better not to give the Christian nit mo until girls come of age? I once knew a family of nine girls, none of whom was christened until the youngest was 16 years of-age. They used to be called Nos, 1,. a, and so on to 9. At 1G the character is sufficiently formed to be suited with a name, and* no one would feci perplexed at hearing a great bouncing creature, who talks stable slang and whistles to her dogs, sailed Selina or Susan, or s-ome such homely name; while, perhaps, all one's previous impressions of the probable Gertrude, or Adelaide, or Frances, receive a violent jerk on being confronted with the owners of those names. And men's names are occasionally quite as anomalous. The only Frank I know is short and stout, and a slow thinker, who begins to dribble out his words before his thought is ready, and then has to make a clui'nsy pause while the poor slow thing is overtaking him. How different from the bright and winning Frank of fiction. How many Georges does one know who slay their dragons? And how many Jacks who kill their giants. Tom is somewhere near Jack, but less attractive, for these yielding, susceptible sinners are generally very likable. Andrew is not.

Investigation into the rosult of the movement a t Chicago tends to show t h a t the apparent success is not so small as lias bvt'ii nssi-rted. Thetu are good reasons, it says, I'ur accepting 70,000 a^j'tho total id those yet ting full wages for fewer hours' work daily.. At New York City the success nl tained is. more noticeable, in all instances full wages being paid for nine hours' work by iJ.'!,000 workmen. At Pittsburgh the outcome of tho short-hour movement has not been very satisfactory to tho strikers, and the result gives little a d v a n t a g e to employes.

GUilstone INKUOK an AdtJresn to His ConalitufnU tu Midlothian—The Issues of the Coiulr.tf British Campaign Clearly Wet Forth. LONDON, J u n e 1 4 . - M r . Gladstone hair issued the following manifesto to tile' electors of Midlothian: "GENTLEMEN*: In consequence of the defeat of the bill for the better government of Ireland the Ministry advised, and her Majesty was pleased to sunctiou,. tho dissolution of r a r l i a i n e n t for af uucisiou by the nation of tho gravest uud likewise the simplest issuethat has been submitted to it for half a century. It is only a sense of the gravity of tiiis issue which "induces me, at a period of fife when nature cries aloud for repose, to seek, „a£ter sitting in ^thirteen Parliaments, u seat in the fourteenth, and with this view to solicit, for the fifth time, tun honor of your confidence. "At tho last election 1 endeavored i n my" addressee and speeches to impress unpiv. you that a groat crisis had arrived i n I w 1 atlairs of Ireland. Wouk as tho late Guveminent was for ordinary purposes, It had great advantages for iieuliug with t h a t crisis. A comprehensive measure proceeding from that Government would have received warm and extensive support from within the Liberal pnriy, and would probably havo closed the.. Irish" controversy within tho'present s e s - sion and have left the parliament of 188¾ fret) to prosecute tho now stagnant work of ordinary legislation, with the multitude of questions it includes. My earnest hope was to support the Into Cabinet in such a course of policy. On tho 2iitu of last J a n u a r y the opposite policy of coercion was declared to have been the choice of the Government, the Earl of Carnarvon alone refusing to • share in it. Tho Irish tpiestioti was thus, placed in tho foreground, to the exclusion of every other. Tiie hour, a~s~ all felt, "was come.. The only point remaining to determine was tho manner in which it was to be dealt with. "In my judgment, the proposal of coercion was not justified by facts and wasdoomed to certain and disgraceful failure. Some method of governing Ireland other thau coercion ought, as I thought, to be sought for aiul to be found." Continuing, with an allusion to his undertaking the task of obtaining for Ireland a domestic Legislature and a reminder oi the front place which t h a t question had held in the legislation of previous Parliaments, Mr. Gladstone asks: "Will you govern Ireland by coercion,, or will you let her manage her own affairs \ To debate in this address this and that detail of tho lately defeated bill would be only to disguise this issue, and would be as futile as to discuss the halting, stumbling, ever-shifting, ever-vanishing projects of an intermediate class which h a v o proeeeded from the seceding Liberals. There are two clear, positive and intelligible plans , be- > fore the world. There is the plan of the Government, and there is tho plan of Lord Salisbury. - Our opinion is that Ireland should, under well-considered conditions, transact her own affairs. Lord Salisbury's plan is to,ask Parliament to renew the repressive laws for twenty years, by the end of which time, ho assures us, Ireland will be fit to accept any government in the way of local government or repeal of the coercion laws you may wbsh to givo her. "1 leave the Tory subject to speak for itself in its unadorned simplicity, und I t u r n to the proposed policy of the Government. Our oppouents, gentlemen, whether Tories or secodors, have assumed the name of unionists. I deny them the title to it. In intention, indeed, wo are all unionists alike, but tho union they refuse to modify is in its present1 shape a paper union obtainou by force and fraud and never sanctioned or accepted by the Irish nation. They are not unionists, but paner unionists. True H+Ooti is t o b e t e s teu-bythe sentiments of the human beings united. Tried by thiscriterion wo have less union between Great, liritaiu and Ireland now than we had uhder tho settlement of 17*2. Enfranchised Ireland, gentlemen, ask:* through hor lawful representatives for the revival of her domestic Legislature—not» on the face of it, an innovating, but a. restorative proposal. She urges with truth that the centralization of Parliaments has been tho division of peoples, but she recognized the fact that the union, lawlessly a-t it was obtained, can not and ought not to be repealed. She is content to receive her Legislature in a form tiivested of prerogatives which might have impaired her imperial , interests vs and bettor adapted than t h b . settlement of 17S2 to secure to hor regularcontrol of her own affairs. She ha* not repelled, but has welcomed the stipulations for tho protection of tho minority. To such provisions we have given and shall give careful heed, but 1 trust Scotland will condemn tho attempts so singularly made to import into tho controversy a venomous; element of religious bigotry. Let her take warning by tho deplorable riots in Belfast, and other places in the north. '"Among the benefits gentlemen, I a n t i c i - pate from your acceptance of our policy are these : Tho consolidation of tho united empire and great addition to its s t r e n g t h ; tho stoppage of the heavy, constant and demoralizing waste of the- public: treasure; tho abatement and gradual extinction of ignoble feuds . in. Ireland and that development o f lier resources which experience show* It* be a natural consequence of free and c r i e r - - ly government; the redemption of the** honor of Groat Britain from the stigma fastened upon hor almost from time immemorial in respect to Ireland by tho judgment of tho wholo civilized world; and, lastly, the restoration of Parliament to its dignity and Hhcioncy and tho regular • progress of the business of the country. ^ "Well, gentlemen, the first riuestiwn I . now put to you is. How shall Ireland be governed? There is another question behind it and involved in it. How are Enf land and Scotland to be governedf Y o u now bow, for tho latt. «'*• y"^v>,»'jppcially^__ the affairs of England and Scotland have been impeded and your imporial Parliament discredited and disabled.

" W h y U n c l e J o e l F a i l e d t o S e t t h e Old S p e c k l e d H e n . All the good people of Pogannac •would have told you that Uncle Joel Totter was one of the best men that •overlived; but even tho.se who liked Slim most were forced to admit that he "was "jest a little slow." liut to his wife ho was far beyond tin? "little." -As sho emphaticallyassorted,,- he was ~"as slow as molasses in January."1 It must have been one of nature'sestrange laws of "attraction of oppojsites". which brought this couple tog e t h e r ; for while Uncle Joel was slow, plodding, dreamy, Aunt Hannah was •quick, energetic, ambitious—a notable iiousckecper, who could do the work of two women while others were plann i n g what to do; whose washing was •on the lint; of a Monday morning looki n g like rifts of snow, long before most -of her neighbors had finished brvaki a s t . To her energetic nature, her husb a n d ' s slow movements and lack of Ambition were thorns in the flesh not unworthy, perhaps, to be compared 'With the Apostle Paul. The fifteen years more of life which Uncle Joel h a d seen, and a crippled limb—the result, of. an accident hvt boyhood—may have had much to do with his lack of •energy; but more of it was nature, an inheritance from his, mother, an intensely religious woman, who, the neighbors said, "could work all day in •a half bushel an1 never git out o'lit." And Uncle Joel's highest dream of Jiappiness was to sit in his arm-chair hy the south window, in the spacious o l d kitchen, and read aloud to himself by tl*e hour from the big Bible lying in his lap, his low, droning monotone driving Aunt Hannah to the verge of distraction. "Here Joel, I want a pail of water!" she cabled, one morning when he was thus reading, and she was' elbow-deep i n the floury mysteries of the bread ihfrwl, "an1 don't be all day about it; I ' m in a 'hurry.'' I "Yis, yis, H a n n a h , " Uncle Joel re- *raarked, reading along softly, his finger following his eyes over the page. " A n d they that wait on tho Lord shall ren e w their strength, they—" "An' they that wait on their wives *hall renew their youth, I reckon," A u n t Hannah interrupted, sharply. " I ' m certain sure you d have to be "born ftgin afore you did it. Come, git t h a t water, I ' m in a hurry, I tell y e . " "Yis, Hannah, I'm a-coming." "An' so's Christmas, an' it'll git Ihore first, I reckon. I wonder if there •ever was another sich a slow mortal in t h i s world!" And rubbing her hands free from jthe dough, sho caught up the. pail anil h a d drawn the water and returned before Uncle Joel had finished his all-imp o r t a n t chapter, nnd^ rising slowly tXK)m the chair limped across, the* •kitchen. "Why, tho p a i P t | « l l , H a n n a h , " he *aid. ' ' _ "Full, o f e d n r s e it'* full!" Aunt H a n n a h snapped. "Did ye a'pose I was a-goin' t'wait all day? I father1 guess they'd be a lot o' work done in this house if a body was to wait for you." "liut ye shouldn't be in sich a hurry, H a n n a h , " Uncle Joel interposed, mildly; "the Lord took six days t'make the heavens and the earth, an' t'aint best t' try an' do every thing in a minute." " I s h o u l d think he took six years to make you, a n ' t h e n didn't linish ye off till Saturday afternoon jest at a i g h t You've been behindhand ever since ye was born." "Well, well, Hannah, we won't quarrel about it; ev'ry booty can't be so spry a*s you be, an' the race isn't alius to the swift—" "But ye'll find the battle'll be t' tho strong—an' right here in this kitchen, if ye don't stir yer stumps lively." "liut what shall I do, H a n n a h ? " and Uncle Joel looked around in helpless bewilderment. "Do? Why, just go out an' set the old speckled hen. I've toldye to more'n a dozen times. She'd a had time t' set an' hatch whilst ye was gettin' ready t'- d o i t . " And A'int Hannah, catching up the first thing that came bandy, which proved to be Uncle Joel's soft felt hat, proceeded to fill it with eggs. "Here they be, and don't be all day about it!" she called, coming out of ^be pantry holding the hat With both hands and depositing it in the soft, fluffy depths of the feather cushion in the big rocking-chair. Hurrying back to the pantry, she returned, to her baking, while Uncle Joel hunted arouml for his hat and cane, whiuh were always missing when needed. "Good mornin', Miss Potter," came the next moment to Aunt Hannah's enrs, as her next-door neighbor walked into the kitchen without knocking; "busy as ever? What a master hand you be t1 work! I wonder if you ever stop long enough t' eat and sleep!" "Well, somebody's g o t t ' work where there's eight mouths t' feed an' eight bncks c' keep clo's on," Aunt Hannah answered;; wft-rrettt stopping a moment in her sifting" of sugar and measuring of Hour for her cakes. ov " W h a t did Mose have t' say for hinv se\l when Sally came back?" "Never said nothin', only asked 'cr where she was goin', an' she told him 'twas where she'd be better off than she'd ever been with him. She says he kinder hauled in his horns, as if he was a little afeared, an' he let 'er go without sayin1 nothin' m o r e . " "The mean scaunp! Lucky for him I wasn't his wife!" said Aunt Hannah, fiercely, ' f ' d a-learnt him what's what afore this time." "Well, ye see, Dave went an' told them factory fellows how mean Mose had used his wife, an' they'd alius had kind of a grudge against him, an' didn't want no better fun V t' scare him half to death; so they just rigged, up in old clo's, an turned their coats wrong side out, ' n ' blacked their faces, so's he couldn't tell none on 'em. Then they got a big bag o' feathers an' a kittle o1 tar, an' came up there an' tried to git Mose out. But he smelt a rat, an' they couldn't raise him. They pounded on the doors an' told him they'd b r e a k ' e m down if they didn't let em in, but he never let on he heard 'em. Bimeby some of 'em got the hogtrough an' threw it through the winder—" "Good for ' e m t " said Aunt Hannah, chuckling with delight. "That's the most sensible thing they ever done. A hog's trough is the best thing they could find for sich a h o g . " "They staid 'round there purty nigh half an hour, and one or two on 'em got in through the broken winder an' looked high an' low, but they couldn't find hide or hair of Mose. Arter they'd BASE-BALL INTRICACIES. "Did-ye hear what amuss-they had ,*er t' Mose Potter's, last night? ' "No; what's up now? They're alius harin1 a time there. I wonder how that woman can bo sich a fool as t'live with sieh a m a n . " "So do I. But this time t'was wus'n any o1 their quarrels. Didn't ye knovy 'bout the fellers from Dobbs' factory- R-comin' up t ' t a r an' feather Mose?" "My goodness gracious, Miss Brown, ye don't mean i t ? " And Aunt Hannah stopped in her 1 work of breaking eggs to raise her 'hands in astonishment. "Do take a oheer an' set down, and take oft'your bunnit," leading the way into the kitchen, and setting a" chair for her visitor. "Do tell us all about 'it."' Aunt Hannah deposited her two hundred pounds rather heavily on the soft feather cushion on the hugo rockingchair, and commenced beating her "eggs in a -rrraiberrv crock-bowl—she could not stop work even long enoirgh to gratify her curiosity—and the twotined steel fork with which she was doing the work had not the efficiency of the modern egg-beater. "Well, ye see, Mrs. Brown began, pushing the huge framework of pasteboard and gingham back from hor face, "Mose's wife took her tailor-work home yestertkiy an' got her money for it. Ye know Mose use t' carry it, and I he wouldn't let her hev the money for 't^ jest spent jest's he'd a mmter, an' .she an1 the children had t' go hungry half o' the time—for Mose n e v e r d bring nothin' in to speak on." " I know it; an' I've told her time'n ag'in she was a fool t'work so an' let that crazy lummox git hold o' her money," said Aunt Hannah, beating her eggs more briskly in her indigna'- dation. " H e ' d set behind the stove ail last winter an' sing 'The LordPervide,' an' wouldn't lift his finger t' pervide for his younguns himself. The hyper* prit!" "Well, ye see," Mrs. Brown resumed, "she le'rnt better'nt t1 let him carry home any work; so yisterday she an' J a n e took a big bundle out to the city, an' when she got back, Mose told her to give him the money, 'n' she wouldn't do it, He was mighty high over it, an' threatened what he d do if she didn't lot him have it. But she'd got her back up, 'n' ye know Sally's pretty kinder" sot whem she sets out. t' be, ' n ' Mose couldn't scare her wnth a cent. /She jest told him the money were her'n; she earn't it, ' n ' he shouldn't tech one penny on',t Then she sez he jestgraobed her by the arm an' throat, an' tried to git it, 'n' sho kicked ai>?/ pulled till she got away from him;,but her hair'd come down in the tussle, an' he grabbed her by that, an'/afore she could g i t away he'd pulled out a lock as big as my thumb. Her head look just awful when sho cafnc over to our house an, told on't, aV hex arm nn' throat was black a n ' ^ l u e where he'd pinched 'er. I told her I'd go straight t' Squire Pease V m a k e complaint against him. An' she started; but afore she got there she met Dave Tuttle V ye know what a high-flyer Dav« is; ' n ' as soon as she told him 'bout Mose, Dave sez. sez he: " 'Mrs. Potter, ye jest go rightstraight back'n get the young'uns 'n' yer clo's, an' if Mose says any thing, jost tell him you've made eohlplaint against him, an' he dassent tech ye, an' I'll get m y team V meet ye here in half an hour, an' fetch yo to my. house, an' ye can stay till ye, can make a shift some w a y / '; "So slu> got the young'uns an' thhigs —an' mighty few things there was< too —an' Dave-fetched thein homyt with h i m , " / been gone a spell, Lisb. went over an' hollered f Mose ' n ' told Him they's all cleared out, and nobody shouldn't tech him if he'd come out. But he never showed-himself; an' Lish lit a candle an' went all over the house, from garrit t' suller, but he couldn't AIKI nothin' o' Mose nowhere; birff jest as was a-goin' t1 give it up,' he heard Mose call in a kind of a seart whisper: " ' L i s h , is it you? Be they all gone?' "An' as true as ye live, there wa.c Mose down on all fours—a-crawlin' out 'of a hogshead 'wav in undor the stiller stairs. 'He was alfeovcred with ashes an' diitf, an' he shook jest like a popple teaf. He was seart all but to death, ar' hung t' Lish so, not to leave him alone, that he had to fetch him home with him.

I<jest made ljish take that bed o u t . i n t e f t h e yard, an' it's there now; nobody1 d never wanter sleep on't arter that nasty eritter'dbeon sleepin' in it." •• Well, I declare for't," Aunt Hannah said, spitefully, at the close of the narration. " I wish t' goodness they'd a-ketched him an' tarred an' feathered him an' rode him on a rail out o' town. If I owed the Old Scratch a dozen sinners an' he .wouldn't take Mose Potter 'n' call it even, 1' cheet him out o' the hull on't! He's the biggest old hypercrit that I ever see." " T h e r e , there, Hannah!" Uncle Joelinterposed;"ffiildly,coming ont of the pantry, where, during the recital of his neighbors' misdemeanors, he had been hunting high and Tow for something he could not quite remember, " J u d g e not, lest ye be judged." "By their fruits ye shall know e m , " Aunt Hannah retorted, sharply. "An' if a man don't show nuthin' but hoggishness ' n ' hypocrisy, I dunno where's the sin in calling him a hog/ an' a hypercrit, an you needn't stana up for him, nuther. He's got n>6re devils in him than ever was cast out o' Mary Magdalhi', anyhow." " Well, Hannah, 'twas a'?wonian the Lord cast 'em out of.

I thought you'd set her half an hour ago." And rising from her chair, Aunt Hannah started hurriedly for the pant r y w'htw an exclamation of "O Mis' Potter, do see!" recalled her. And what a sight! There, in the feathery depths of the chair cushion, was tho old felt hat crushed as flat as a pancake, and all that remained of the doiien i^gA was a mass of broken shells, whites and yelks mixed in a manner not common in cake-making. Her dress was plentifully plastered with the mixture, and every movement sent drippings of it down to tho floor. In her eagerness to hear her neighbor's story she had aat down without looking behind her, and tho soft depths of tho cushions had given no warning of the mischief she was doing. "My goodness!" was all she could say, as she stood looking upon the horrible mixture. 4;Well, H a n n a h , " said Uncle Joel, *'I never thought ye was in sich a hurry to hatch them eggs that ye'd set on M e m yourself." And for the first time in her twenty years of married life Aunt Hannah had no retort ready; and the old speckled hen was not set that An I n c i d e n t W h i c h Yrorts* T h a t T h e y W i l l Nrver B « U n d e r s t o o d by ^.a-diea. My first serious mistake lay in taking a party of ladies to tho ball park. I asked them if they understood the game. They replied that they did in a general way. I never knew before what dense ignorance is covered up by that vague and unsatisfactory expression. We arrived at the park without exciting incident, save the temporary excitement of leaving a bill of large denomination at the gate. I purchased score cards all around, and explained briefly and courteously the intents thereof. The ladies said "Oh," and for about tejuv. seconds were deeply interested. Then they fell to looking around to see who were there and what they had on. Every few seconds a score card would slide out of a lady's lap. This kept me busy and served to relieve the monotony of waiting. The Detroits were practicing in the field aud Hanlon was knocking flies into tho suburbs. Presently he hit a terrific ball over the center field fence. Singularly enough one of the ladies saw him perform the feat. "Why doesn't he r u n ? " she cried, excitedly. "Why doesn't who r u n ? " I asked, in astonishment. "That little fellow with the club," she said. ' I / I explained that it was probably because the club overweighed him. This seemed to~satisfy her, and she resumed her inspection of the spectators. I discovered that the ladies were very much interested in the uniforms, and I observed with alarm a tendency to get the clubs mixed. It took some minuses to straighten the matter satisfactorily, and then the umpire called time. The umpire is a pretty busy man,- but he absolutely reveled in idleness that day as compared with my labors. The second ball pitched was a foul, which whizzed into the grand stand and came near diminishing my responsibilities by one. This necessitated a change of base, and we moved around in an agile manner, my perturbation being increased by a volley of sugges- TTons from the rear of " d o w n in front.'1- Again fairly seated, one of the ladies discovered that she had forgotten her parasol, so back I traveled, secured it, returned, picked up a score card or two 4,nd sank into my seat in a profuse perpiration. Then the questioning began. "Why do they keep taking off a n d putting on those m a s k s ? " "Which is tho pitcher?" "What makes them slide along on their faces?" "Which side is at the bat?" / "What is a foul?'.' "Isn't over the fence out?" These questions I answered with becoming fortitude and patience, but when the youngest and" daintiest lady said it was a perfect shame to dirty their- uniform by polling along the ground I gave her/up as a bad job. At the end of the first inning " I took the score cards'with some apprehension, which proved to be tvKH based. Tfduh~d'"thaf/'"three'""of the laades~ha-d kept the Kansas City score on tho Detroit side, and one of them had credited the home club with four runs and some sixteen base hits. I straightened out the score with some difficulty and was rewarded by the remark of tlve owner of the most complicated system of scoring that she "wouldn't have'missed seeing, the game for any thing." That was where we differed, but, then, I make it a point to be always open to reasonable propositions. —Kansas City Times. A Practical Communist. day.— Jennie i'oricr Arnold\ in llartj'or4 hmai. A Paris correspondent writes that as an American lady was driving down the Boulevard Haussman in an open carriage a man suddenly made a dash at her and tore from her back hair a valuable pin studded with brilliants. The fellow then bolted at a smart pace, leaving his victim screaming with fright. Some gentlemen who were passings by at once set oft' in pursuit, and after an exciting chase succeeded in collaring him at the end of the Hue Tronchet. They took their prisoner, whose name is Martin, to the nearest police station, and on being confronted with the magistrate he coolly explained that, being without work, he considered it the most natural thing in the world that those who had more than they, required should supply him with meat and drink. Unfortunately for the ingenious philosopher, the magistrate refused to acknowledge the force of his theories, and he was sent to gaol to meditate on the blindness of his fellowmen.— London Globe. Keep the Vines in Row. Every season when tho young vines and small fruits encroach on the spaces between the rows keep them back.

Every occasion which does honor to this illustrious statesman is of extraordinary interest to all American citizens, since our pride in his career and achievements is not in the least limited by partisan influence, or by any seatiment less than national. It would be well if in the capital of every State there stood a statue such as Concord boasts, which should not only prompt the memory of man, but which should.also keep alive through the coming centuries the love and veneration of the American people for true American greatness.

W h y M i s s D u l c i m e r Did M a r r y L o r d L e x i c o n . N o t Miss Dulcimer was a fashionable beauty; her photograph was in till the s h o p windows, and for several seasons she had excited universal homage and admiration. She was a strikingly handsome girl, fairly accomplished, and clever beyond the conception of most of her friends. For she affected a stately and dignified repose ot liian^ ner, which suggested a languid temperament, whereas, in fact, Miss Dulcimer owed the prominent position which she occupied in society entirely ti) her own energy and force of character. Her mother, a widow lady of good family, would have preferred to live quietly and unostentatiously upon her moderate income in some sleepy provincial town, and would have been quite content to see her daughter married to a curate, or any worthy young m a n she honestly loved. But 'Hilda Dulcimer had far different ideas from these. She had been ambitious from a child, and had early realized that she oouUI command the homage of the oth- «jr sex. She was no less romantic, perhaps, than most young girls; but in all hor day-dreams the ideal lover was invariably possessed of an immense estate, a town mansion and a box at the opera. In a word, Miss Dulcimer had always been ambitious of making a brilliant marriage, and in due course she deliberately set to work to affect her purpose. She induced her mother to take a pill box of a house near Park lane, iM an exceedingly unhealthy situation, backing on to a mews. T h e rent was ruinous, and the rooms were small And stuffy, but, as Hilda pointed out, the locality was undeniably fashionable. She proved, too, that a brougham a n d a dignified man-servant were absolutely indispensable adjuncts to the establishment, and completely destroyed her mother's peace of mind by com.- polling her to keep up appearances Jar beyond her means. But though the p o o r old lady lived in a state of abject terror of bailiffs and creditors, Hilda contrived that she should not be molested. Her success in the highest and most select circles of society was immediate and enduring. In many,little ways which her friends did not suspect, she turned this to account H e r f o w n s cost her nothing; her milliner's ill took the- agreeable and unusual form of a substantial check; and; in fact, almost every article of attire was supplied free by tradesmen eager to advertise their wares. She had no difficulty in disposing of her cast-off wardrobe at.highly satisfactory prices, and, i n addition to money thin saved and gained, she was always willing, for a •consideration, to bear public testimony to the efficacy of somebody's patcut complexion-reviver, or somebody else's incomparable tooth-powder. By such expedients as these did this clever young rady contrive to keop the the means for those necessary expenses which her career involved. Meanwhile, without the slightest apparent effort, she maintained the foremost place among tho beauties of society, was present at all the state balls and grand assemblies, visited at the houses of the highest nobility, and received marked attention from royalty itself. Many offers of marriage were made to her, but Miss Dulcimer calmly and disdainfully rejected them all. The fact was, though she would no*: have confessed it even to her mother, eligible bachelors of the wealthy aristocracy seemed very shy of taking a wife outside their own select circle. An En- ?;lish young lady, even though a proessional beauty, who could not aspire to their own rank in life, was apparently regarded* as quite out of the question. But yet Hilda Dulcimer was not disheartened, and for four seasons she patiently angled and waited. At length there ^appeared upon the scene a young noDieman, Lord Lexicon, who had recently inherited his title quite unexpectedly. He had served as a lad in the navy, and of late years had gained rather a reputation as an intrepid traveler and sportsman in far countries. He had been i absent from England nearly five years, when the news of his good fortune brought him home to assume the positerr* a n d responsibilities of a member of the Upper House and one of / t h e largest landed proprietors in £he Midlands. He was a frank, open, unsophisticated young maa-s^omewiiat simple minded, perhapsT but by i n r m e a n s a fool. His return caused rather a 11 utter of excitement among aristocratic mothers of marriageable daughters, for, with a few almost hopeless exceptions, he was the most desirable husband of the season. Their anxieties were, however, of short duration, as, from the moment of his introduction to her, Lord Lexicon appeared to fix his affections upon the beautiful Miss Dulcimer, and commenced to pay her the most marked and assiduous attentions. This proceeding was by no means approved of by the young lady's enemies and rivals. She had many of the former, unfortunately, and not a few ~ut the tatter. Lord L e x i c o n r e c e i v e d several friendly warnings regarding the--.object of his affections; he was told tfifat-.she was heartless, that she painted, that her hair was false, that her gowns w?re not paid for; in fact, his love was put to tho severest tests; yet such was this; young nobleman's infatuation tha;Hie utterly disregarded the advice that was tendered to him, and took the earliest opportunity of asking Hilda Dulcimer to be his wife. "Mother, I am to be Countess of Lexicon," exclaimed Hilda, a few moments after the momentous interview, with the nearest approach to excitement and enthusiasm that she had ever manisfasted. The old lady murmured her congratulations, and wiped away a tear with a tremulous hand. It was evident, however, that she was preoooupied and uneasy, and her daughter sajd^sharply: "What is the matter, mother?" " I have a surprise for you, my love -some good news,11 said her mother, doubtluTTv; * ' "What'is i t ? " "Dear Tom has come homo." "WThat, my brother!" To account for the somewhat unpleasantly harsh tone in which the young lady uttered this exclamation it must be explained that Tom Dulcimer, her younger brother, had shown distinct symptoms of being a ne'er-dowell. It is true that he had done nothing to disgrace himself or his family, for at seventeen he had been packed off to the Colonies through the influence of his sister, who foresaw tho inconvenience of having a near relative in England with Master Tom's reckless proclivities. She had never ceased to congratulate herself upon the wisdom of this precaution. "Good gracious! How exceedingly inconvenient!" Miss Dulcimer ejaculated, after a short pause of dismay. "My dear, I'm sure you ought to be very pleased," remonstrated her mother, mildly. " T h e dear boy has supported himself all the$e years, and has grown a tine, handsome fellow." "What did he w a n t Xer'come back for—especially ju^t-^iow ?" exclaimed Hilda, frowning; "My dear, the poor fellow has been ill, and 'he wished to see his old mother again," said her mother, beginning to tremble. "After all, why should he pass his life in exile? He has. never done any thing w r o n g . " "What good can he dp over here, mother?" said Hilda, seYereby. "You can not afford tqjeeep h i m . " "He has, a n appointment, my dear— a very good appointment," cried the mother, eagerly; " a clerk in the office of some company connected with Buenos Ayres, where he has been. Ho is to get £ l 0 0 a year and he says that he can live well upon i t . " "A clerk in an office in the city!" exclaimed Hilda, as her beautiful 'lip curled. "Mother," she added, sharply, "nobody must know this. Of course, I must tell Lord Lexicon/ but not till I know him better. Has T o m been here? Did he send his n a m e u p ? " "Ho has been h e r e , " answered her mother, cowed by her vehemence. "He did not send in his name, poor boy. He said that we were 'such dreadful swells,' and that his coat was shabby. He arranged with you when he went away, yon may remember, to call himself Trower—ray maiden name. T h a t was t a e name he g a v e . " "Thank go*Mness for that! T h e n the servants-suspect nothing," said . Hilda, more amiably. "Mother, yon MM^H fi'nn hr -nwt lmr 'n i o n r wiMnl find I muat p c ^ i i t e never, to brealhe'A_word to any one about having a son in England." "My dear child—" "Mother, you must consider m e , " interrupted Hilda. "If this were known, Lord Lexicon's family, a n d others who are jealous of me, might make mischief* a n d ruin every thing. What is Tom's address?" Mrs. Dulcimer gave it somewhat unwillingly, and half an hour later the famous beauty, closely vailed, alighted in a dingy back street in the neighborhood of Marylebone, and made her way up three pair* of stairs to her brother's aerial retreat. Her purpose, which she had concealed from her mother, was-to insist upon her brother Tom returning whence he came. To effect this she relied partly upon her strong will and the influence she used to possess over the lad and partly upon a bribe of a hundred or even two hundred pounds. With her knowledge of the prejudices of the aristocracy, and the precarious hold she had at present attained over Lord Lexicon's affections, she did not deem any pecuniary sacrifice within her power too great for the advantage of getting an*inconvenient brother out of the way at this crisis in her life. It soon transpired, however, that Tom Dulcimer had developed a will of his own also. The meeting between brother and sister can hardly be described as effusively affectionate. The fact was that the recollection of his abrupt dismissal from England on very slight grounds, at his sister's instance,' still rankled in T o m ' s mind, which was further prejudiced by the artless and touching complaints of Hilda's tyranny and selfishness which his mother's letters to him, for some years past, had contained. Hilda, on her part, remarked with disgust that her brother's hands wer<? not as white arid'soft as they might have been, that his manners were suggestive of the, rough life he had led, and in short, that he was not quite a presentable member of society. It seemed to be T o m ' s humor to affect a deference and awe of his sister which be did not feel, and Hild-a, throughout the interview, had an uncomfortable suspicion he was jesting with her. He politely bMt firmly declined to give up his situation and return to Buenos Ayres, but he raised no difficulty about consenting to keep in the background. " D o n ' t you fear, Hilda," he said, giving her a brotherly salute as they parted, " I won't trouble the noble swell you ar* going to marry, nor you either. Only when you arc turned off. I shall emerge from my obscurity and live with mother. That's understood." "Certainly, T o m , " said Hilda, smiling graciously, and endeavoring not to evince disgust at the odor of tobacco which his embrace imparted. "When I am married my husband shall obtain a post for y o u . " "Wr ait till I ask, my girl, that's all," said Tom, with an aggressive laugh'. So Miss Hilda Dulcimer was fain to be content with the terms her brother voluntarily submitted to, nor did he give her the slightest cause for uneasiness. Her mother, happy at having her son near her and seeing him occasionally, acquiesced in the conspiracy of^silenco regarding him, and as his "existencc 'was" not suspected by any one, no contretemps arose. Meanwhile five of the six months of the engaged period elapsed. Hilda's trousseau was in an advanced state of preparation, when one afternoon she found her mother almost fainting in her chair, with an evening newspaper in her hand. " M o t h e r ! what is the m a t t e r ? " cried Hilda, with an uncomfortable presentiment of evil. " M y dear child, a dreadful thing has happened," murmured poor Mrs. Dulcimer, carefullv avoiding her gaze. " W h a t , m o t h e r ? " " Your poor dear brother—" " W h a t has he been d o i n g ? " inquired Hilda, sharply, as she turned pale. " N o t h i n g ! He is innocent, the poor dear boy is innocent," returned Mrs. Dulcimer, firmly. "But—but—" Hilda snatched away the paper which her mother handed to her, and with outward composure, which dissembled her dismay and horror, read that her brother, under his adopted name of Trower, had that day been committed for trial on a charge of robbing his employers by means of forgery. " G o d help us all!" she* ejaculated. " W h a t a fearfully shocking thing!" " H e is innocent!" reiterated the poor mother, in tears. " I n n o c e n t ! " repeated Hilda, with an expression which, could he have seen it, would have been a wholesome revelation to Lord Lexicon. " A t least, he is committed for trial. I suppose that means something more than mere suspicion." There was a long and painful pause, during which Mrs. Dulcimer sobbed, while Hilda bit her lip till the blood started," as she reflected with knitted brows. " I knew it would come to this," Hilda said at length, gloomily. " W h a t a blessing I never tola Lord Lexicon." " I suppose you must tell him n o w ? " said her mother, nervously. " W h a t ! " cried Hilda, with undisguised a m a z e m e n t " I think he should be told," said Mrs. Dulcimer, uneasily. " I t will come o u t Of course, you and I must support the poor bov through his troubles. We must decline all invitations for the present." " M o t h e r , are you m a d ? " crii Hilda, almost with v i o l e n c e . > » T e l l Lord Lexicon! Refuse^Hrvttations! Why, mother, we m u s t a o nothing, either of us, t o g W e a n y one the least suspicioiiaf-tftls awful b u s i n e s s -__ Itw^ts^Mrs. Dulcimer's turn to give ,y to a display of temper now, a n d the poor, meek spirited lady astonished her daughter by h w resolute bearing. Hilda, tfhe said, could deckle for herself the propriety of concealing the matter from Lord Lexicon, and for her part she was determined to be loyal to her son. Hilda found it necessary to abandon vehemence and insistance, and to adopt plausible arguments to bring her mother round to her views. She feigned to believed that her brother was iniA»cent, and pointed out that to dxaw attention to his unfortunate position, from which he would doubtless be honorably acquitted, would be a mistaken polioy. It cost the astute young lady an hour's serious talk and- remonstrance to overcome her mother's scruples, but in the end she triumphed. Poor old Mrs. Dulcimer was as plastic as clay in the hands of her beautiful daughter, and she ended by reluctantly consenting to humor Hilda's wishes. It would be useless to attempt t o describe the agony of mind which the poor mother endured during the next few days. In addition to suspense and anxiety on her son's behalf she was compelled by her daughter to go into society and wear a smiling *raask over her woe. Hilda was relentless in allowing her mother no peace even to brood over her sorrow. The beauty was haunted by a morbid fear that any thing in the least degree unusual in the conduct or bearing of her mother and herself would give rise to suspicions which might ruin her hopes. She kept a very strict watch upon her mother, but in spite of her vigilance the poor lady contrived to visit her son in his cell and convey to him the comfort of her loving sympathy. This, and the finding of funds, by "secretly pawning her jewelry, to retain eminent counsel for his defense at the trial, were all that the unhappy woman could do. WheVi the prisoner was committed for trial the sessions were close at hand, and consequently the period of suspense was not so long as usual. It happened that on the day of the opening of the sessions there was a grand dinner-party in Hilda's honor, given by the old Duke of Middlesex, Lord Lexicon's cousin. In vain poor Mrs. Dulcimer pleaded illness and almost went on her knees to her daughter to spare her the agony of going into society when her son's trial was close at hand. The bea-.vtjful Hilda was inexorable; to begin w-ith, without her mother's escort she would have to absent herself also; but apart from this it seemed to be of the very highest importance fat such a critical time that they should appear among their friends as usual. Siie so impressed this upon her unhappy mother's mind that the poor lady ..suffered herself to be over-persuaded, and she accompanied • heir daughter with the bravest air she could muster. WJi#n the guests had ail assembled at Middlesex Lodge it was found that Lord Lexicon was late, and after waiting for him nearly half an hour it was decided to go down to dinner without him. Hilda, who looked her best, was most graciously received by even- one, and felt in no way uneasy at Lord Lexicon's absence, for his Lordship's habit of travel h a d rendered him a little forgetful of the exigencies of polite soeiety— In- fact, to be late-fur dinner was an idiosyncrasy of his which excited very little surprise. Hilda would have enjoyed herself perfectly but for vague apprehensions on her mother's account. It may be that she felt a twinge of remorse when she glanced at the ]K)or old lady's bloodless face and tremulous hands. She saw that her mother was in a condition of nervous tension and suppressed excitement which might culminate in a sudden attack of illness. When dinner was over, but before thejadies had left the table, the door opened and Lord Lexicon appeared. "Beg your pardon, Duchess; awfully sorry. Duke!" he cried, in his impetuous fashion, as he took the vacant chair next Hilda and gently squeezed her hand. " D o n ' t have dinner up for me. I had something to eat while I dressed." "A nice way of coming out for dinner!" laughed the.Duke. . " I will tell you what kept m e , " said Lord Lexicon, in a loud and distinct tone, for the old Duke at the head of the table was a little deaf. " W h e n I -wtt*4ft Mexico-about t w o years ago I chummed for a while with a very nice young Englishman, who saved my life at the risk of his own. Well, I lost sight of him, and it appears he came over to England a short time back and got into trouble. Quite by accident I found out to-day that he* was to be tried for forgery at the Surrey Sessions." "For w h a t ? " inquired the Duke, with his h a n d behind his ear. "Forgery. A young fellow, mind you," cried Lord Lexicon, waxing eloquent with indignation, "who is as honest as the day is long, and would no more commit a crime than yon would, Duke. I would have pledged „my right a r m , " he added, bringing it down with a b a n g u p o n the table, " t h a t he was i n n o c e n t ? ' — " W h a t is his n a m e ? " inquired some one. "Trower, he calls himself; and would you believe i t " cried Lord icon, with a fresh outburst of^inthgnation. "his lawyer told me-that he has relatives, near relatives, living here in London whohaveTall kept aloof from him, becAtrse they h a d n ' t the pluck to stajKr"by him. Imagine a poor fellow n his position being deserted by his neatest and dearest! "Not his parents, surely!" exclaimed the Duchess. . "His parents! Well, his fathei is dead, and his mother, poor lady, seems to have done what she dared for h i m , " said Lord Lexicon, in a gentler tone, •'As far as 1 could gather, it is a sister? who is to blame. T r o m all account* this young lady ' m u s t be absolutely: heartless and selfish." Amid the expressions of surprise and! indignation which this recital excited* Hilda Dulcimer, whose embarrassment only betrayed itself by a becoming flush upon her cheeks, stole an anxious glance at her mother. Mrs. Dulcimer was staring eagerly at the speaker with distended eyes, her face deadly pale, her frame rigid. " I pitched into Trower for not sending for m e , " continued Lord Lexicon, "but it appears he did not know me by my title." "Acquitted! Of course," r e t u r n e d Lord Lexicon impatiently. "The case only concluded about half an hour a g o , and that is what has made me late. But the jury never hesitated, and the judge said he left the court 'without a stain on his character.' " Even Hilda—in the midst of her dismay— was conscious of a thrill of satisfaction at this news, but when L o r d Lexicon had finished speaking she saw, to her horror, her mother uprising from her chair. The next instant the poor lady, in a sort of paroxysm of uncontrollable excitement and agitation, with clasped hands and upturned face, cried out in frenzied tones, which penetrated to every corner of the room: " T h n n k God! thank God! my s o n ! my darling son!" As the last w o r d s passed her lips Mrs. Dulcimer swayed and fell senseless into the arms of t h e gentleman by her side, and amidst a painful and embarrassed silence she was borne gently from the room. Lord Lexicon's abrupt departure on a shooting excursion to the Rocky mountains caused a great deal of comment. There was no formal announcement that his engagement was broken off, but during his absence Miss Dulcimer married a wealthy a n d fatuous soapboiler.—N. Y. Graphic. ASP1NWALL SPIDERS. The Big Insects Which Sometimes Coma ^ to t h e United States. "Look out for the tramps!" saidCorput, the fruit dealer. __ The Telegraph man was admiring t h e bright buff colqr of a bunch of bananas yesterday, when a big ugly spider crawled out and .ambled along on the counter. He was a bundle of d a r k - brown-fuzz about the size of your t h u m b , into which were stuck several long, black legs. He was a tramp all the way from Aspinwall. And, like a tramp who had stolen a ride under a freight car on the breakbeam, his legs seemed cramped from the long journey in the crevices of a bunch of bananas. The poor fellow was at a loss where to go. He was thousands of miles from home and friendless, for people do n o t t a k e kindly to big, ugly spiders. He was a tramp and in a strange country. " W e killed one here the other night with a body as big as a biscuit. His body popped like a: Thev come often in bananas, but we generally m a n a g e to kill them. «Up at the old store one made his escape and made his h o m e under the counter. Then another escaped, and for a long time we lost sight of them. One day we found a web under the counter, and on looking closer we found the home of the t w o tramps. They had raised a large family of spiders, and they were the cutest little things you would care to see. They ran nimbly into the web if you" made a motion to strike them, and many days we have watched them simply for the amusement. They caught every fly that c a m e within range, and now and then a b u g happened within their reach and varied their bill of fare. Although we k n e w they were dangerous pets we did not disturb them for the reason that they seemed to be industrious fly-catchers, and were never inclined to sting. One afternoon a new clerk saw one big fellow run around a corner of the counter, and as he had never seen a spider of such enormous size he imagined that to allow it to go at large was equivalent to turning a tiger loose, and h e killed the pet. The others ran o u t and for about an hour the new clerk had about as much as he could stand up t o killing spiders." "Do they ever bite?" "Yes, but it is a - r a r e occurrence. They fight like wild cats, and they a r e high-tempered, but they never trouble anybody unless aroused and teased. Although there are millions of bunches of bananas brought to this cenmtry every season, and many a thousand spider steals his way across with them, vou never hear of any one being stung.

"1 could hardly have hoped for this," the thought, glancing up at the great moon-faced clock abort her head. " In fcf/o minutes more we start, and the train only stops twice on the way down. No one is likely to come in now, and Oh, dear, dear, I am afraid I exulted too toon!" The fear was well grounded, for at that rery moment the door opened, and, though she saw no one but the big-beard* ad guard, who poked his head In and cleared a place upon the opposite seat, •be heard the shrill tones of a woman Mfcti in angry protest <Jl stall complain to the directors, I as- ••svfVSL A station-clock should not be M^ttPpst, and yours is at loast three mlnattrffl advance of Greenwlch time.

"May be, mum," the guard returned Impertnrbably; "but you see, right or wrong, that clock starts this train, so yon had better jump in if you don't want to lose i t Now then. Jim. Right forward 1" Tbe door slammed; Something scram* bled in, the whistle screamed, the steam escaped with a roar, tbe train moved slowly on Its way, and Magdalen Vane found herself surveying her queer travel* ing*companion with puzzled and halffrightened eyes. A queerer companion could hardly have been assigned her by the most malicious fate. At first sight Magdalen thought that, despite her shrill tones and imperious manner, she mnst be the merest child, for the laree poke-bonnet was hardly on a level with the carriage window but there was an unchild like breadth about the shoulders, and the hands that rested on the^carriage-seat were those of a fullgrown woman. For a second or BO the new-comer stood In the centre of the carriage, glaring vengefully back at the man, -who had treated her threats so coolly; then, as the Iron girders, glaM^jroot, and brick and mortar walls were gradually left behind, she turned round with such abruptness that she met Magdalen's eyes pointblank. The sight seemed to displease the lraslble little lady : her face, ordinarily very large and white, with beady black eyes, and little corkscrew curia making a fan* tastlc Medusa-like wreath about the forehead, grew red with anger, and she cried In an intolerant tone— ^ " Worse and worse 1 they have-actually put some one in with meJ^Hfhall certainly complain to the directors." "Excuse me^-Magdalen said, with perfect coolness and good-temper, but also with a tittle flash of natural spirit, "I was _ln possession of the carriage—they put you In with me." The small woman drew herself up tin the must have reached the full altitude of four feet, drew her black brows together as though preparing to deliver some —altogether clashing retort; then, quite • . aee. suddenly, she seemed to change her mind, and, loosing shrewdly up into her face. broke into- a shrill eldritch laugh. "Why, so they did. And no doubt you were quite as savage when that clumsy lout of a gnard thrust me in upon you as I was when I saw you sitting like a mouse In your corner. Confess the truth now— were you not 1" There was something so keen and shrewd in tbe bright ugly face she looked down upon, that Magdalen would not have dared to venture a polite mendacity, even had the occasion for it been much greater. As it wae. she answered frankly— "I was very vexed, because 1 thought X should have had the carriage to myself all the way." "And I entertained the same vain hope. We are a pair of misanthropes, you see, tad fate has declared against us. By-theway, this is a second-class carriage, 1 »• f. " Yes, did you not know it •» Magdalen asked, smiling in spite of herself at the other's odd vivacity of speech and movement; and the little lady answered promptly— " Most certainly I did not; but it cannot be helped now. The fault Is all that abominable guard's, not mine." She shrugged her shoulders, and clam * bered into Tier seat, with an air of philosophical resignation to an inevitable ill tssftt at ooce amused and puzzled Miss Thee, "I suppose she has a third-class ticket, '^gsjft thinks she may as well profit hy tbe TMsVs lucky mistake," the girl thought. ''Poor little thing, she does not look tit to travel about in an uncomfortable fashion, though I suppose she is well able to take care of herself in her way. Well, she may call me as a witness that she did not choose this carriage, but was packed Into tt agdlnst her will. Perpaps I had better tell her so." She looked ronnd with the half-formed Intention, but a glance at the big white face changed her purpose. Her fellowtraveler was staring nut of the window, evidently untroubled by any fear of consequences and mentally at iter ease, though physically she must have been anything but comfortable. Magdalen gazed with a thrill of pity at the large feet that dandled uncomfortably within a few Inches of the floor. The woman had neither box nor parcel to rapport them, and on this, hot August day there Was of course no footwarmex in Its carriage. . * V HI •smnilar- if I dare after har mydMt," taetirl thought, divided bttwesn acuta com passion sou a sby sensitive dread of wounding where she meant to serve. "8ht will think perhaps that I hare no light to notice—and yet. oh. dear, how cram pad and miserable her poor little legs moat be!" Compassion conquered shyness and fear of misapprehension. With the laat thought Magdalen drew out the neat little desk in its trim leather cover, and held it out with a bright girlish blush and a Utile hesitating smile, that the woman aha ad* dressed thought very ingenuous and sweet. "Might I-may I offer you this I I t makes a capital footstool; I used it on the boat coming across—and these are HO high!" Tbe girl spoke raoidly, and a little confusedly in her graceful haste to explain, aud the stranger smiled a broad smile of approval "Thank you, my dear. You are what I call a kind and *en*ible young woman, and I did not think there was such a ram avis left among the flighty frivolous flirts of the present day. I will accept your offer with all my heart; for my wretched feet seem to weigh a ton or so each already. Ah, that is comfortable I" With a sigh of intense satisfaction she planted her large feet on the solid support that Magdalen deftly arranged for themv then bent her large head and cooly in* spec ted the Initials on the leather coves of the desk. 4,*M. V.,'" she said, meditatively. "Yonr initials, I suppose. Now, what does •M.Y.'stand for f" Magdalen hesitated only the fraction1 of a second over her answer. There was no reason why she should not give It and gratify the harmless if slightly impertinent curiosity of the woman she had obliged. Besides, after the obligation, refusal would be doubly ungracious; so ahe said with a frank little laugh— " If it interests yon to know, the letters stand for ' Magdalen Vane.1" " Um, rather a pretty name for a very pretty person 1 Do not blush, my dear: you saust learn to bear the truth, you know. I have learned to bear it, and i t la not quite so pleasant in my case as In yours." She finished with such a whimsical contortion of her features that, in spite of a very genuine and warm-hearted pltyr Magdalen could not repress a smile. "That's right 1" the other said/good* ternperedly. "I like to see that you can smile. Yon look so preternaturally grave just now, I was half afraid to travel with you; but you have had some great sorrow lately f" The shrewd eyes glancedf front the crape-trimmed dress to the pale, qnicj averted face, and, as- the girt did not answer, the woman went otv"wlth a touch of real feeling in her-*ohe— "Tell me something about it—about yonrself^my dear. If yon only gratify an old-woman's curiosity, you do yourself no ^arm." "None," Magdalen answered, with a little nervous smile: " but I have so little to tell, having been at school the best part of my life. I am an orphan, aud am going to a place called Craymouth, in South Devon, to stay with" my father's cousin." H Craymouth!" the other echoed; with a look of pleased surprise. "Well,, that Is a qtfeer coincidence too!" "Whyf Do you know the pface F" Magdalen asked eagerly, and the other answered with a curious twinkle 1» her eyes— "Yea—sffghtly. I have spent alf my life in its Immediate neighborhood, if not In the place itself." "And you know all the people there?" "Well, more or Jess—well, Ie9*, perhaps generally speaking; for I am not a very companionable person, and have but few friends—but I do know all the Craymouth names. Peruaps yon will tell me that of your father's cousin." "Talbot," Magdalen replied, watching the other's face as though she could read her future fate and the character of her anknown relatives there. "Talbot—Talbot! You do not mean the banker, I suppose V "Ithinkhehas something to do with the bank," the girl answered, with a little sigh. " Yon need not look so depressed, child; Mr. Talbot is a very considerable person In Craymouth—everywhere. Indeed. I believe, but in the domestic circle, where, if report sneaks truly, Mrs. Talbot reigns with supreme and autocratic sway. Have you seen, Mrs. Talbot, my dear ?" Magdalen shook her head. •'No; they are both strangers to mo. Only when my father died—he was killed in India in a hill skirmish ei^lit months ago—Mr. Talbot wrote me a very kind letter, offering to transact any business I might have." •• And you arcented t^ie oTer •" "Yes.

KDiNiiugtiH, June 19.—Mr. Gladstone formally opened the campaign for homo jrulein Ireland in thin city last night with « , powerful speech before a great audience i n Music Hall. Mr. John Cowen, chairman of Mr. Gladstone's election committee, presided a t the sneetinar and introduced the orator, who w a s received with redoubled cheering. The Premier's voice, when he began his- speech, «eemed less powerful than formerly. Hi* remarks were received with cheers. Mr. Gladstone began his speech bv say* Ing that Inkerinau was a soldiers' battle. Jt watt not won by a General's tactics or Ability, but by the soldiers' valor. Equall y were the present dissolution of Parliament and general elections the people'* fcattle. Referring to the seceding Liberals, Mr. Gladstone said the quostion irui whether the country would re «olve, with a strong sense of justice dind sympathy for Ireland, to compensate lor these defections, He was strongly convinced, he said, that the people had resolved to carry the day notwithstanding t h e defection of prominent leaders of the .Liberal party. This contest, he said, was if ought against Liberals by the officers of •their own army. The Conservatives were rantent to leave the work iu the seccder'a 3u*nds. Continuing, Mr. Gladstone said: "They call themselves unionists and ua •disintegraters. They wish to preserve the .paper uuion unaltered. We feel that it ashould be specially conserved so far as it is valuable. We seek the union of heart iand mind, which we are struggling to restore. It is desirable to speedily •close this great controversy for the autke of every interest in this country. Until this is done the position of .*dl parties will be deplorable. Public business will be interrupted and public conti- •dence shaken. Social order in Ireland will not be restored unless the people speak •clearly, manfully and decisively ; such as the question merits. [Cheers.] Do not lot :it be said that the nation is unequal to the task of dealing with the question. Some flinch difficulty. Some turn their backs in the hour of trouble. Xiet the nation not do likewise. Rest asasured that if the nation's voice be given iu "defense of our cause, when the contest is settled and the excitement has passe, 1 « w a y it will resemble the old questions of religious disability, parliamentary reform and free trade. The people will wonder why opposition wairraised: "It is important that the eleotors should ^realize the true issue, which is much disputed. It is a choice between opposite policies regarding Ireland, between opposite -principles of action, or a choice upon the -details of a large and complicated bill. Important journals urge you not to consider the policy to be pursued, but to entangle yourselves in the details of this or that particular • method of establishing that policy. Tho •question you are asked to decide is the proposition to establish a legislative body IU Ireland to manage exclusively Irish at lairs. It is a principle upon which you art • called to vote, and not details and particu lars or even a bill. I propose to reduce tho issue to a point wherefroin there can be no •escape." Mr. Gladstone did not believe that Scotland was doubtful about or adverse to ftomc rnle. He -saw enough during his progress to show that Scotland's heart was deeply and profoundly touched. Scotland's will was never more bent upon any vwork or policy of justice than it was to accomplish the present enterprise. The Premier spoke for an hour ;nnd a half. At the close of the address the audi- *inw indulged in prolonged and frantic plaudits. After the cheering had subsided a vote of confidence in Mr. Gladstone and his policy was carried amid .great enthujsiaam. ^,---^ LORD BALISDVRY AT LKED9. ' LKKDS, Jjiive^lO.—Lord Salisbury, the X^otiaoryatTvo leader, addressed an audi- «fcce"of 5,000 persons in this city las* - night on the home-rule issue. Fully 10,- O00 people applied for tickets of admiss i o n to the hall. Lord Salisbury began bin address by stating that in most cases of an appeal to the tribunal of the people there was a cause with an antago n i s t to defend it, '-but now," he said, '"we have a very living and vigorous .-.antagonist defending a shadowy, imma- 'teri&l, unsubstantial cause." The doctrine ot Mr. Gladstone's manif e s t o says the question is Bimply: "Will y o u govern Ireland by coercion or will ...you allow her to manageher own affairs?" I t would require great ingenuity to pack a •rmore delusive statement into fewer words. Nobody has proposed to govern Ireland • b y coercion. "''We may say that criminal law is all •coercion. If Mr. Gladstone is opposed tc fit we must presume that he sympathizes -with criminals, against whom effort* are i being made. [CheersJ All that we desirt us that the law be sufficiently business-like and efficacious to carry out its own bojbesfcs. Coercion means nothing else in our xaouths, and to compare that with the coercion that Mr. Gladstone exercised at JKilmainham is a mere juggle upon words." • {Cheers. ] Lord Salisbury referred to the division oi rsentiment in Ireland touching home rule. A quarter t o a third of the population abi. solutely opposed it. He continued : "I echo Mr. Gladstone's desire not to im- ¥ort religious bigotry into this conflict roteetants are likely to form a more cor- .rect judgment of the destiny in store fox ?them if the Home-Rule bill passes than its advocates are by mere unsupported Assumptions and the maudlin optimism -which passes for statesmanship nowadays. They have, though I don't defend what they hare done, given us s foretaste of tho inevitable .result which-is anarchy and standiag^oivil -war if England renounce* her duties and responsibilities. Separation is the end which Mr. Paraell means to attain. We should remember that Mr. Parnell said in .America that he would not be satisfied until he had destroyed the last link. It has been proved that he uttered this statement in Cincinnati. A separate Ireland mean* a country possibly hostile, which in a foreign crisis might join the « n e m y a n d would in any event beacon* . stant additional burden to the tax-payeri of Great Britain and a menace to our western coast. Local government and home rule have nothing whatever to do with each other. .

VANCOUVER DESTROYED, Twa> Reperts on the Huhjeet from tfee Hoow Committee on Ways and Means— The Majority In Kavor of the Abolition of Duty—A High Tax Advocated by the Minority. WASHINGTON, June 17.—In reporting adversely to the House Representative Groavenor's resolution providing for the restoration of- the tariff of 18G7 upon wool, the Committee on Ways and Means submits that the duty upon the imported wool is proved by testimony derived from both argument' and experience to be injurious to ail classes and beneficial to none. The report says: ••R drives from our markets many kinds of wool not raised here, but indispensable to the successful manufacture of woolen goods. It gives the European manufacturer the exclusive use of the«e wools, and therefore a monopoly of goods made of them, and consequently of the markets of the world. It contines American manufacturers to a restricted choice of materials and so to the production of a limited class of goods with which the home market is periodically glutted. It makes it impossible for our manufacturers to export woolen goods, and by confining them to the home market leads to ruineus fluctuations in prices, resulting in a frequent closing of mills and their sales at disastrous sacrifices. It prevents the home manufacturer from? buying the foreign wook which could be used in mixture with American wools, and thus lessens the demands for American wools instead of increasing it as intended. It gives the European- manufacturer control of atl foreign wools. It thus causes the importation of foreign wool to come in a manufactured form, and the more the duty has been raised the more disastrous has been the result to the American wool-grower. " It has furnished a good excuse for heaping heavy taxes upon the clothing of the people and it has taken front the weolgrower an amount tar exceeding any benefit which he might have imagined he would derive from the tariff without giving him that imagined benefit. It has reduced the wages of the working-men in the woolen manufacturing; it has ruined investors who were enticed into this manufacture by the delusive promise of a high tariff; it has greatly hindered our trade with our natural customers in South America; it has made clothing dearer in America and cheaper in Europe; it has injured all classes and helped nona "The committee, therefore, reconinfend that the resolution lie on the table, but, that the prayer of the textile workors in Philadelphia should be granted; that the duties on wool should be repealed and the dutiee-on. woolen manufactures be reduced te at least an equal extent" Representative McKinley, of Ohio, on behalf of the minority of the Committee on Wave and Means submitter! a report on the "wool" resolution reported adversely by that committee. The minority report says: "The majority report, while ostensibly made upon the resolution, is, in fact, '"a supplemental report of tho general Tariff bill and evidently intended us a defense for tha action of the committee in proposing to place wool upon the free list." The minority goes into un exhaustive argument bristling with figures to demonstrate that the growth und development of agriculture have not been obstructed by orotectiv* tariffs, and the report theu continues: "So long as American pro to -live tariffs operate bo foster and cherish Americanenterprises which are enabled to provide profitable employment to American labor so long should American tariffs bo upheld and defended, whethmi-a'ssaulted from influences at home--'Or influences abroad. We can not" be healthy and vigorous «js--a nation if tue source of powers—the people—is discontented, ill-fed, lit-paid, ana without tho comforts and deprived of the healthful conditions which 6hould be enjoyed by political equals. "It is not a question simply of whether we shall clothe ourselves in cloths manufactured from American wools, or in cloths fabricated from Australian wools, but how wiU the nation at large and the individual citizen be affected by the policy which makes the latter necessary, if not inevitable. It is not tho narrow question of the cost of the clothes we wear, or the food we eat, or the lumber which gives shelter to our homes, but what will bo the general effect of such reduced cost and all which must follow it upon our citizenship, and ultimately its influenco upon the strength and character of our institutions. It is a broader question than the price of the domestic or the foreign product and, while the former may''in some instances cost a little more than the latter, it is of fittle significance when measured by the comforts and advantages of the masses of our country, which can not be secured without the maintenance of an American policy which this proposed legislation is intended to 4overthrow. In some departments of industry the cost of production in this country is greater than that of any other, and to remove the protection which we secure by our tariffs will either surrender our market in those departments, to our foreign competitors or, if we would hold them,..we must diminish the cost of the competing products. Our duty therefore is not fimitud to the mere question of dollars and cents, but it is deeper and more far-reaching. It relates to the power and capacity of the people to perform their exalted political trusts. Comparisons can not be made with other nations. This is a nation of citizens, not subjects. Whatever therefore will secure to the laboring masses their full share in joint profits of capital and labor, promote the highest intelligence and largest independence, should he adopted ana become permanently a part of our national policy. Severe Earthquake in Nicaragua. ALBANY, N. Y., June _12^Mr~_JohnJ_£ Hotchkiss, a prominent manufacturer of ' v Birmingham, Eng., arrived here yestetday from Rialejo, Nicaragua. He described to friends in this city the frightful effects of a volcanic eruption and earthquake which occurred in Nicaragua on the day before he sailed from that country. There was a terrible eruption from the volcano Mo mo Totnbo on May 22. Tele* graphic information was received at Rialejo on the 23d, a few hours before the steamer sailed, to the effect that the City of Maagua, the capital of the country, had been practically destroyed by the violent earthquake which accompanied the eruption. The earth upon which the city was built soon after the convulsions began sank suddenly three feet below Its former level, All buildings of any considerable value were of course completely wrecked. It was stated that there was lose of life, but how great was not known when the ~ Pacific Mai! steamer left. Telegraphic intelligence from a town at the terminus of a railroad fortymiles from Rialejo was even more startling. The place was being" fast buried beneath hot volcanic ashes, and many lives had beta tort. Burning, of the Western Terminas of thm Canadian Pacific KaUw»*-T«a Bodies Recovered from the Kulns — Property Talued at 91,000,000 Devoured by the Flames. .> PORTLAND, Ore., June 16.—Referring t o burning of Vancouver, B. C, on Monday, the Orcgoniun'a Victoria special says: All day Sunday there had been a very steady wind from the northwest, and Drush-clearing fires on the Canadian Pacific railway lots were fanned to such an extent as t o fill the terminal town of Vancouver with amolfe. Nobody had, however, any idea of danger. Shortly aftor one p. m. several persons began to consider the situation a threatening one, but the smoke was so dense that they found it impossible t c direct their steps to the exact location of its source. Soon a stable near the Colonial Hotel was seen on tire. The alarm was given, but so skeptical were the people that they paid no attention to it for Vouio time, Tho wind by this time had increased to a gale, and fanned the flames to a mass of raging lire. One of tho first buildings to go was Macartney's drug store, followed by the--office of the •Vancouver News. The flames shot across Abbott street with astonishing rapidity and aim cm t before the people could realize it, the whole of tho western portion of the city was in a blaze. The excitement was now intense. Water street was filled with dense smoke and flying cinders, and people were hurrying with what effects they could gather in their haste to a place of safety. In less tinio than it takes to describe it, the fire had reached Carroll street. Some merchants in this vicinity and in the Ferguson Block wero engaged in conveying their goods to a place of safety, but so rapid was the conflagration that, before the teams wero loaded, the teamsters themselves were obliged to fly for tneir lives, All hope of saving any considerable amount of property was now abandoned and each contented himself with'hastily putting together what he could carry in his hands without seriously impeding highspeed, and hurried from the spot". But, even after leaving the houses the danger was not over, for, every road had become an avenue of fire, falling timbers and stumps on each side of the road glowing with tire, proving as serious a menace to the fugitives as burning houses of the doomed city. The dropping of the flames was us Biidden as their rise, and by G p. m. some advent u ro u s s p i r i t s h .uFalready hfiufotheir way along the roads of the destroyed citji', and before dark tha work of searching for the bodies of tlioBe overtaken by lirey elements had begun. In a short time tho incinerated remains of several persons had been discovered. U p - t o 10 o'clock Monday morning,, ,-nhfe bodies, some of which wero burped" beyond recognition, had boen- ' found. There is some uncertainty about the exact number already found, aa in Homo cases a luuttdlul of charred bones was the only "indication of a.human life being lost. One of tiie Searchers naid he thought the number could be truthfully estimated at twelve. The ireneral sentiment of the people appears to be one of hopefulness, and a determination at once to begin the reconstruction of the city. Some have already g o t their buildiug material on the ground. A thousand men are at work clearing up tho debris for the railroad company. Twenty contracts for rebuilding have been already letl Many men lost their all, but are determined to start up again. Tho property loss falls directly on the pioneer element of tho new city.

One of the Examining £hysclans Denies ThHt Bavaria's Unfortunate Monarch TY»«t Crazy — The Official Autopsy — Strange Hints from Vienna. MUNICH, June 1G.—A careful, thorough and scicntilic autopsy has been made OK tho body of King Ludwig. It'rovealed au abnormal structure of the skull and the existence of a degenerative process in the membranes of the brain, due partly to chronic inflammation. Dr. von Schleiss, formerly physician to the King, denies, however, that the King was insane. He adds that though he disagreed with the official report of the examining board of physicians declaring the King insane, still he felt compelled to keep his views to himself, "for," says ho, "if I had published a statement in opposition to that of the court doctors I should have shared the fate of certain other persons and been at least consigned o prison. My opinion as to the King's condition is based on ray experience as his Ehysician since his birth. My colleague, >r. Gintl. agrees with me." At a plenary meeting of the upper house of the Diet yesterday, at which all the Princes, two Archbishops, Count Holstein and the Cabinet were present, President Frankenstein alluded in feeling terras to tho death of King Ludwig, all present standing in silence. Baron von Lut«, president of the council, read Prince Luitpold's message asking the house to assent to the regency, which was unanimously agreed to. A committee of twelve was appointed t o deal with the situation. One of the King's last remarks was: "I can suffer deposition, but will not outlive the assertion that I am mad." Public discussions of the King's death are notably heated, and the popular sympathy is with the King. Several persons have been arrested for speaking disrespectfully bl Prince fcttitpold and his party. The Bavarian Ministry have tendered their resignations, but they have not been accepted.

Lately, at Grata, a war broke out between the glovers and the tailors which became so bitter as. to recall the grotesque wrangles of the bourgeois of the middle ages. The tailors contended that, by virtue of the new law, the glovers had no longer a right to make the leather breeches worn by the Styrian mountaineers. The glovers replied that they, were breeches-makers as well as glovers and possessed the privilege of furnishing the Stvrians with their breeches for centuries, and it was the tailors who were engaged in an illegal trade. To this tho tailors rejoined that if it was a privilege it was abolished by the new law, and they would not allow it to be re-established unless the Emperor should decide that a pair of gloves and a pair of breeches were identical. As the aft'air threatened to lead to bloodshed his Majesty intervened. Imitating the wisdom of Solomon, he decided that the privilege of making the leather breeche^ should thenceforth belong to the tailors and glovers both— "to the tailors by natural right and to the glovers*by tho right of tradition."

About 70 relaw *0 ^h « friends of [r. and Mrs, D. fKau\">*ett gathered U-ssa ^ 3 = at the home of UayREtfter last evening and gave them a joyous surprise, it being the 2Mh anniversary of their marriage. After the company was all assembled Rev. F. M. Coddtngton. j made somevery fitting remarks coo-., / eermng the occasion, which was firilowed by remarks and the re-marriaire ceremony by Rev, H, Marshall (tad the kissing of the bride by Dr. Haxe.) The Doctor here explained that he bad expected to perform the ceremony, bftxt the minister got in ahead ot him. He then, in behalf of the company, presented Mr. and Mrs. Bennett with a few tokens of esteem, which consisted ot the following; Set dishes, rocking chair, silver cake basket, set silver tea spoons, silver mounted pickle castor, granite coffee pot and tea pot, two silver napkin rings, silver butter knife. oil chromo, firlass cake stand and n a ^ l J ^ V h a g a t kin, 1 doz. napkins, china bread and milk set, and a mammoth Wed-cake for Dave. Mrs. Bennett spoke bar thanks in a few feelinar words, and 3fr, Bennett also spoke his pie'ce—as far all tbey would let him. Jokes and* ccnsf gratulations followed, and the innet man was well provided for in tbe way of edibles and ice-cream, and all went gay as'a marriage bell till the smajfr! hours of the night were reached, daspite the stormy weather without. It was a merry time, and we think tbe thus honored couple will always char* ish with fond remembrance their 25th anniversary. The success ot the affair Is due to Dell and Nel'ie, the instigators of tbe celebration, and tbe many Lfriends who awa^sw'^^Bp n^^s^paw sawaa^av w^i^y 4W*j flMtilMlWM4t tfce following staadiig aaaviy. committees were appointed. of judtrment. but, married masculine.
